Northlake Academy ~ A part fantasy, part futuristic RP

[MissInnocent]

Celia hesitated before nodding slightly. "Sure.". She paused. "How bouts I go in with you? I think Mr Rael would pounce on you as soon as you get in. At least you won't be alone if he does." she suggested, walking along side Summer. She inhaled deeply as they got outside in the fenced off yard. That sweet, sweet air. She would be outside, truly outside soon, and then she would be free. Free to do whatever she wants to do. Not trapped by this stupid, stupid school.

As Flynn walked outside, he felt as if something had reawoken inside of him, as he smelled grass, and the fresh, air. It was chilly outside, and that unfortunately added another worry to Flynn's shoulders. Well, it was late October, after all. The fact that it was already really chilly in mid-fall at least confirmed to Flynn that the school was up north.

Summer watched the others go before heading into the gym, searching for Mr Rael. Urgh, how she hated this gym. Not long, however, until she would hopefully be waving it goodbye... Scanning the room, she searched for Mr Rael before heading over to where he was stood with the tents. "Uh... hey, how many tents am I gonna need?" She asked. "Like, there's boys and girls in our group, so..."

 

[Runner]

Mr. Rael fixed Summer with his usual angry glare he gave all students, and then answered, "You have 5 people in your group, right? Take two." He basically threw two of the tents at Summer, and then he proceeded to throw some stakes used to help people set up tents at Flynn.

Flynn barely managed to catch the stakes, since he was caught off guard since he had been thinking through their plans to escape. In any case, he was relieved they had two tents- it was better than just one tent, since if the person carrying one of the tents got lost, they would have had no shelter at all. He looked up at Mr. Rael, and asked, "Uh, what about our sleeping bags?" It was answered by Mr. Rael throwing some sleeping bags at him and Summer.

 

[tamaturtle]

"Uh, I think there is-" Summer was cut off as Mr Rael threw some tents at her, and she barely just managed to catch them. She had just recovered, however, when some sleeping bags were thrown at her. Half of them fell to the floor, and Summer quickly scooped them and moved out of the way of the teacher. "Wow. Someone's moody." She muttered, opening her bag and stuffing her sleeping bag in as best she could. Thank god for the airtight bags. Picking the others up, she said to Flynn "We should go give these to the others and then... get on the bus, I guess."

 

[Runner]

"Yeah..." Flynn scooped up two of the three sleeping bags he hadn't been able to catch, and then put one of the bags inside of his backpack, along with the folded tent and some of the tent setup supplies. "I wonder if Celia or Peyton managed to get Will in on our plans yet? Anyway.." With a sigh, he began to head towards the gym doors back to the halls.

 

[MissInnocent]

Celia sighed, taking in the fresh spring air. Ah. Perfect. That is, apart from the fact that she was going to escape on a camping trip to the wilderness, with no idea of where she was. Risky. Her mouth's corner twitched up slightly, thinking of what could happen if they were caught. Torture. Fights. Pain. She was starting to regret her decision. Were they really trying to use them? Then again, her mum would support this fully - "fight back" and "rebel" was a regular part of her vocabulary. Chuckling slightly, she heard the sound of foot steps approaching. She whisked around, grinning, and asked Flynn and Summer "Got everything?"

 

[Runner]

"Yep, here's your sleeping bag." Flynn reached into his half zipped up backpack, unzipped it all the way and then handed one of the three sleeping bags he was carrying to Celia. "So.. We need to decide who's gonna get to carry the tents. We only have two, so that means whoever gets to carry one of the tents has to be someone who won't ever get separated from the group."

 

[tamaturtle]

(Does Mystic even post anymore? xD)

"Here, I'll take one. I've got loads of room in my bag now." Summer said, unzipping her bag and somehow folding the tent in. "I think the stuff could be kept among us three, you know... because, well, we haven't even talked to this Will yet and we don't really know this Peyton girl very well." She sighed, glancing around. "Okay, are we gonna wait here for Peyton and the mysterious Will or move on? I wanna get good seats on the bus, we don't know how long we're going to be on it..."

 

[MissInnocent]

Taking the sleeping bag, she bent down to put it into her backpack. Unzipping her backpack, she said "I think Flynn better take the other one. I don't have much space in my bag.". Standing back up, she grimaced. "We should probably just get on the bus. After all, Will and Peyton have to get on the bus sometime." Heaving the backpack back onto her shoulders, she sighed heavily and lent on the wall.

 

[Runner]

With a sigh, Flynn put the other tent in his bag, which took up the remaining space in the second largest pocket of the backpack. "Yeah, let's just go get in the bus, Peyton and Will can meet up with us at the spot where they drop us off.." Looking around, he added quietly, "Which is hopefully, not in Canada or anywhere too close to the border since I don't want to get beat up by soldiers."

(I dunno if Mystic if even gonna post, if she doesn't, I'll come after her)

 

[tamaturtle]

Summer nodded and led the way over to the bus, which was parked in the corner. There were only a few people on the bus: a couple of students, some which she vaguely recognised, and a driver, who didn't even make any reaction as she got on after putting her luggage in the holder at the back. Summer hadn't really wanted to leave her stuff out of her sight, but oh well... "Where are we gonna seat? The seats are only in pairs, and the back seats are already taken..."

 

[Runner]

Thinking for a moment after hearing Summer's question, he finally said, "Well, since the seats are only in pairs, you and Celia can sit together while I go to sit in the seat across the aisle... Try your best not to talk about our escape plan, since other people may overhear. For all we know, some of the kids hear could belong to families that support the EU. So.. Yeah."

 

[MissInnocent]

Smiling nervously, Celia walked over to the luggage holder and stopped in front of it. After hesitating slightly, she put down her backpack near the back, and walked away quickly. She had to put it in there, right? It would look suspicious otherwise. Glancing after it a few times, she marched over to Summer, forcing a smile. "Well, we better get in the bus then." she said in an unsteady voice, and led the way to the bus entrance. Looking up at the bus driver, she frowned. She didn't like the look of him.

 

[tamaturtle]

"Please, I'm not daft." Summer muttered, grinning as she swung into a seat. After a few moments though, she became restless, drumming her fingers on the seat in front of her and gazing out of the window, trying to shut down her thoughts. Eventually, she couldn't stand it anymore and got up, pushing past Celia and Flynn and practically sprinting for the baggage holder. Ignoring the annoyed noises from the people around her, Summer rummaged through the bags until she found her own and opened the front pocket, pulling out her sketchpad stuff before shoving her bag back in and returning to her seat. "Okay. I'm good to go."

(Are we doing the bus journey or should we timeskip?)

 

[Runner]

(Timeskip)

The bus ride felt like forever, as Flynn luckily got a twin seat to himself, which was great, but also pretty lonely. Once the bus came to a stop in a campground parking lot near a small mountain and a forest, Flynn got out of his seat, grabbed his stuff out of the luggage rack, and then got off the bus. He stood and waited for Celia and Summer to get off the bus too.

 

[tamaturtle]

Finally, finally, the bus ground to a halt. Summer, who had been itching to get up and get moving for the last half hour or so, sprang up, practically jumping over Celia in her rush to get her bag and get off this moving prison. As she stepped off the bus she took a deep breath in. "Ohmygod. I never thought I'd appricate the fresh air so much! This is definatly not Northlake." Summer sighed happily, although she was starting to feel slightly scared about what they were going to do.

 

[tamaturtle]

oh my, double post.

 

[tamaturtle]

TRIPLE POST D:

 

[MissInnocent]

Celia rolled her eyes, jumping up and exiting a tad more calmly. She crossed over the bus with wide steps, eager to reach freedom. She took a deep breath, closing her eyes as she stood by the side of the bus. Smells of trees and wilderness filled her nostrils, and she sighed happily. "Aah. Fresh air." she giggled, leaning against the bus in a moment of peace. That was interrupted as the bus driver pushed violently against her, most likely on purpose. Growling quietly, she strolled over to the luggage holds and hoisted the heavy bag onto her shoulder. Walking back to the others, she grinned and said "Freedom at last."
