Attention Students this is Principle Connors and these will be your morning announcements. Welcome back to Arkview High its going to be an amazing year and I am glad to have so many smiling faces line my halls. this year will be a bit different there will be no classes today as we would like to give everyone a chance to get acquainted with where their new classes are and I fell its a great chance to allow everyone to catch up.... You are still required to stay on school grounds and if you wish to eat you will take your lunch at your scheduled time. We will be having our normal Back to school assembly at 1:30 Following the end of the final lunch hour all students are required to be in the gymnasium by this time we have a lot to go over this year. I hope you all enjoy your day I will be making rounds feel free to stop me if you need something.
 
Carson sighed as he heard the announcement having just came inside he decided he would quickly deposit his bag in his locker and return outside with his guitar. So with haste Carson headed to his locker happy about the easy first day he ducked and weaved through the crowd of teenagers (Carson Was a rather skinny kid and not all that tall so it was easy for him to slip through crowds) Carson began to wonder if he would ever make it to his locker until finally he had reached his destination he grabbed the lock turning the dial to each number and click he was in he deposited his bag slammed the door shut turning to plot his route out guitar strapped to his back
 
Xander sat outside the principles office looking sullen. He hadn’t been bad this time, although he figured that this dumb school was going to have him sat here in trouble more often than not.

In this instance, Xander was new. Spending his last year here was going to be hard for the soon-to-be-18-year-old. Especially as he spoke with a strange accent from England that people in his other schools bullied him for. He figured he was going to keep his mouth shut or kids here will be no exception.

He was tired of fighting, he fought enough at home and didn’t want more at school. Besides, if he got kicked out of this school, no other schools in the area would take him given his track record. Which wasn’t very fair, as he was the one bullied. But, they punished him for starting the fights.

Now he sat there. Half hoping he could sit here all day. Maybe this principle has forgotten about the starting new student, he can’t be the only one?

Scarlet opened her locker and hooked her bag up as she look at the decorations she put up last year of some old pictures, poems and tech crew photos from shows last year. She pushed her beanie down as she closed her locker and leaned against it, watching the other students meet up with their friends even her twin brothers Max and Jack.

Scarlet pushed herself off of her locker and decided to walk around the halls of the school, she pulled her headphones from around her neck to its resting position on the top of her head and pressed play on a random playlist she made during the summer. Obviously the first song to come on has to be 'highschool never ends', scarlet sighed and started walking around the school looking for a quiet place to read or do some art work.
 
Carson was bobbing and weaving his way through the crowd and past the principles office. he saw an older kid sitting outside "hmm must be in trouble" he thought for a moment before thinking about the look on the kids face " no school hasn't even started yet there is no way he is in trouble yet besides he looked kinda upset...stop Carson you've gotta talk to him make sure he's cool" his brain debated amongst itself Carson stop and with a small sigh turned back towards the office pulling a chair over and sitting in front of the kid a bit spun around the wrong way in the chair Carson rested his chin on the backrest looking at the kid.
"so?..... Whats with you? " Carson inquired.

Xander eyes the kid with a deep suspicion for a second. Great, now he’d have to talk.

“Nothing” he grumbled, his accent coming out fairly thick for just one word. “I’ve just got to start another stupid school that I’m only gonna get kicked out of anyway”

He shrugged. The thing about Xander was that he was a very genuine and open kid, maybe the only redeemable feature in these kind of moods.
 
Carson's expression turned a bit concerned " don't say that its going to be an amazing year just like principle Conners said" he smiled reassuringly at the teen.
"Besides I like to think that lives what you make of it.... a bit cliche I know but I think its true, " he said standing up and looking around the halls we a bit less crowded as people began either going outside or settling in a classroom to do whatever it was they were gonna do he looked back at the teen " I'm Carson, By the way, come on I wanna show you something" he nodded his head down the hall as he finished speaking Carson wasn't about to let a new student start his year with those thoughts in their head. He didn't like to see people down one of his redeeming qualities as he would say.

Carson new just where he would take the teen two the drama room happiest place in the school as far as he was concerned.

Xander shrugged as he stood up... he knew he should probably see the principal before wandering off, but he didn’t care.

“You’re not laughing at my voice.” He said to the younger kid in disbelief “sounds mad... but why?”

He started to take the kids lead... wondering what he was going to be shown.

“I’m Xander by the way” he held out a tentative palm to shake.
 
Carson smiled as he took Xander up on the offer " well a couple reasons first why would I that's just an awful thing to do. Second, my abuelita
is way harder to understand when she tries to talk English through her accent that's why I just speak Spanish to her and third don't take this the wrong way but I have a thing for the English accent." Carson explained as he leads Xander through the school getting closer and closer to the drama room Carson hoped Xander would love it like he did so Xander would have a place to go
 
“You May be the only one...” Xander was still glum as he looked around downthe corridor. “I’m sorry, I’m just a bit messed up. That happens when you’ve been kicked out of schools because you’re being bullied. It’s ridiculous...”

Xander shook his head and laughed an uncomfortable laugh.

“Thanks for being understanding”
 
Carson looked at Xander giving him a quick smile " you just need someone to show you HUmanity isn't filled with just horrible people." Carson said as he came to a stop " You, my friend, have just had it a bit rough and I'm sorry for that but hopefully we can help change that" he said turning to a door with a small plaque that read Drama Room " here we are happiest place in the school" he entered the room holding the door for Xander
The room cluttered with set pieces, props, and costumes. a stage dressed the far wall a rack of chairs beside it Carson flipped the lights on and smiled

"theirs a reason we had to walk through most of the school they like to keep us as far away from regular classes as possible since it can get pretty loud in here with the acting and the music not to mention the singing that happens sometimes" he smiled waiting to see what Xander thought of the room
 
Xander half smiled. He had always found escape in drama and performance.. so a whole room dedicated to it felt maybe like heaven.

He picked up a rogue piece of sparkly cloth from the floor- obviously a remnant from a costume or set. Examined it and smiled.

“Thanks. Thank you for showing me here. I might hide in here all year! It’s not gonna be so bad if I manage that.”

Scarlet walked toward the drama room but noticed there was 2 people in it so she decided to continue on until she felt herself be pushed sideways into some lockers with a loud crash. She sighed as she watched the football team walk away laughing, she brushed herself off and fixed her hat before doing a quick once over to see the damage. So far it's just a red mark on her cheek that will become a bruise at some point but she could care less. Basket cases aren't meant to feel things.

Scarlet remember that stage crew would be starting up tonight so she will need to boot up the system in the drama room, but she doesn't want to intrude on their convosation. She leans on the wall outside the drama room, rubbing her cheek to try ease the pain, not even cringing when the pain gets worse.
 
Carson smiled over at Xander " well you can't stay in here all day every day... buuut ill show you something you can do" Carson said as he leaned his guitar against the wall before hopping up on stage "Sometimes if something is really bugging me ill come up here and scream" he announced before letting out a loud scream that would only carry so far through the school. with a smile, Carson extends his hand towards Xander "c'mon try it you look like you could use a good scream" Carson knew that people could hear him sometimes when he's in here goofing off or.... Screaming but it didn't really matter to him nobody ever said anything.

“Okay..” Xander said and tentatively walked up to the screaming area.

He breathed in, all of his problems inhaled with that breath. Then he let out an almighty scream. A loud. Gutteral. Primal. Scream. He felt like a weight lifted from him. Nothing was forgotten or completely better. But this certainly helped
 
Scarlet turned up her music as screams rang out, she guess it was teenagers meeting again after not seeing each other. But green day was more important then trying to figure out what it was, more trouble then its worth to her. She started tapping her foot that was currently on the wall the the beat of the song. She looked around her listing off the different people by stereotype, her Scottish accent making it hard for some to understand when she mumbled under her breath.

Scarlet had yet to see anyonr she tolerated at this school, which were the drama nerds and the other basket cases, most of which had graduated last year leaving her to suffer this school year alone once again. Thank god she was only here one more year then its bye Pheniox and hello drama school.
 
Carson looks over to Xander "helps a bit doesn't it" he hops down from the stage picks up his guitar and shrugs "well we better get you back to the principle" he headed to the door and looked back at Xander "unless you wanna go look around more. It's up to you" Carson says waiting for a response.
 
“Aye, it does” Xander grinned. “I mean yeah. It does”

He got back down again and looked around.
“I’d rather just hide hear forever. But... I guess. Look, is the principle nice? I know I’m in a lot of trouble with him... I know that. And more so now I’ve already sneaked off. But but.... but I guess I had that coming anyway. Just as long as the head.. I mean principles not an idiot”
 
Scarlet hummed along with her song, still tapping out the rythem with her foot. She looked at the door and noticed that one of the guys had made their way to the door so she began to head to the door and opened it avoiding the guy. She nodded her head in greeting before heading to the tech part of the room and booting up the system and grabbing her keys and toolbelt.

Delicia walked down the school hallway, twirling a drum stick in one hand and greeting people with the other. The greeting depended on the person; jocks liked high fives and fist bumps, cheerleaders liked waves and finger waggles, skaters went for finger guns and peace signs, and the list went on and on. She greeted the people she knew and the people she didn't. She figured she'd meet the people she didn't know at some point in the year and it was good to make a nice first impression.
She was glad for the chill day. She could get started on scoping out who she would be hanging with this year. Who would she play board, card, and video games with? Who would she go to sports games with? Who would she go to dances with? And who, most importantly, would be throwing the first house party of the year?
"Sticks!" Delicia heard a familiar voice and felt a grin, turning to see Jerry D'Luca and his boys coming toward her with open arms. He was first chair flute player the previous year in band and the school's famed basketball point guard, making varsity his freshman year. He was also what she privately called one of her "regulars" - not necessarily a real or close friend, but she truly enjoyed his company and liked hanging with him.
"Excited for the new year, D'Luca?" Delly asked, giving him a big hug.
"Oh, dude, you know it!" He replied. "Hey, do you know who's throwing the back-to-school party this year?"
She shook her head. "Not yet, but you know I'll find out." Her reputation as the school's every-man (that is, someone who hung out with anybody and everybody) meant she knew pretty much everything there was to know, from gossip to the complete lunch menu for every month. Sometimes she wished someone would ask how she was doing instead of asking for information or snacks, but she tried her best to be content with the life she lived. After all, she had plenty of friends. Why would she want anything different?
She stuck out her tongue and bumped fists with Jerry and his crew before continuing on down the hall. It was time to put her ear to the ground and get busy.
