Cliff woke up with a headache. He sat up and looked at his clock. 3:00 am. He pushed himself up and looked in the mirror next to his dresser. His hair was a mess and his and he looked horrible. He hadn't gotten much sleep over the past week. He was excited about going to Faire School of Magic. Him and his sister, Aria, and his parents were Auroras, which are magical people of Faire who can control and summon creatures of magic. They were the last one left as the others where killed in war.
Cliff knew he would never fall back asleep so he grabbed the new uniform his parents bought him and went to take a shower. Though he knew it was bad for him, he took a long hot shower. It was 4:30 when he got out. He dressed and combed his hair, but to no succes. His hair would never stay flat. He left his bathroom and lay back on his bed looming up and his ceiling, which glowed with the firefly stars given to him from his now deceased grandfather. They twinkled different colors according to his mood. He had no idea the time passing was quit fast. As I felt like only twenty minutes had passed when he looked at his clock. 6:42. He sat beck up and quietly walked to the door and opened it seeing Aria's door open and her light on, with a pink glow to it.
He turned his light on and it glowed green. Excited.
He walked over to his sisters room and walked in seeing her putting makeup on. Though he thought she really didn't need it since she was already beautiful, he could never change her mind. She didn't notice him walk in so he cleared his throat. She jumped a bit turning around. She didn't look to happy.
'What are you doing here?" She asked him with a growl in her throat.
"I was just checking to see if you were ready." He sighed.
"Well I am, I don't know about you since it looks like your hair isn't done." He scowled and walked out. She knew that his hair couldn't be done. He huffed and walked back to his suit case and carried it out to the kitchen.

His mother had set the table for breakfast, but was no where to be found. She must have gone to work already, he thought. He sat down at a spot with food and started eating. In the middle of chewing a piece of toast his sister came down stairs.
She had her stuff ready and looked older than she really was. She was tall with curly blonde hair, and purpley blueish eyes. She looked exactly like her mother. She of course insisted that makeup was needed. He wasn't as good looking as his father was. He was tall with rather pale skin, which didn't show his excessiveness in the sun. Short messy brown hair, grey eyes and a sharp nose. He couldn't stand it. His father had followed her down the stairs. He was tall and tan, with grey eyes and short blonde hair. He had always envied his fathers looks.
Aria sat down in front of Cliff and his father sat at the head where he usually eats and started eating. After they had finished there father packed there bags in the carriage. Though the carriage was small on the outside it was large on the inside.
After making sure they were ready they all climbed in the carriage and headed towards Faire School.

They arrived around dark. Maybe close to 6 pm. The school was hidden behind large trees but when it came into view the siblings gasped. It was a large castle like building with a large iron gate, and large court yard underneath the walkway. The yard was lit with Christmas like lights changing colors every few minutes. Little fairies danced around the courtyard to music played by what they made out as students.
The carriage came to a stop in front of the school and the driver opened their door. They steeped out still awed by the appearance of the school. A tall man stepped up to then, who hadn't been there seconds before said "Welcome. I am Headmaster Keane. We hope you enjoy your learning experience." And with that, he disappeared into thin air. They gapped at what was now nothing.
"Well," their father broke the silence. "I'll be seeing you Christmas I suppose. Your mother wishes you farewell." And with that the to horses neighed loudly and raced off into the forest they had just come from. They picked their bags up and headed up the steps to the front door.
