What if...

⛧1- Entrance Ceremony

It was the day of the entrance ceremony and the start of a new school year at Night Raven College.There was a lot of excitement among the girls and boys about which dorm the dark mirror would put them in. Annabeth watched those mortals carefully and with pure amusement. One student after another stood before the mirror during the ceremony.Then it was Annabeth's turn. "State thy name.", the mirror says, and Annabeth wonders if he wants her full name or not. But she is sure that her older brother did say his full name to the mirror. "Annabeth Hannah Louise Maria McAlister." she replies in front of the mirror. "The shape of thy soul is befitting Disaomnia." reveals the mirror to her. "Oh, so I guess I'll be in the same dorm as my brother." she says amused, walking over to the students selected for Diasomnia.

During the process, one person caused a ruckus. Annabeth looked over to the Octavinelle students, where a teal-haired young man was in an unpleasant mood and causing trouble. Another teal-haired man tries to calm him down but to no avail. 'They look like twins?', Annabeth thinks to herself while watching the spectacle.

***

Lilia Vanrouge, the vice house warden, had to take the place of the current house warden. This is because none of the other house wardens remembered to invite him to this event. Malleus never shows up to an event uninvited. The black and pink-haired young looking man then leads the way for the newcomers to their dorm. Annabeth was happy that they finally could get into their dorms, but at the same time she was also sad because it was so funny to watch the teal-haired man go nuts and cause some trouble.

It sure was a chaotic start to her first school year but she was rather happy than disappointed. She thought it would get boring during the ceremony, but nope she was very pleased to have some fun. 'The headmaster's red face was such a wonderful sight to be seen.' She grins and pulls the hood off her head, revealing her long, wavy red hair.

She was sharing her room with another female Diasomnia student, who is currently unpacking her luggage. Annabeth was happy that she could change into more comfortable clothes. 'Those robes sure look nice, but they're fucking tight.', she sighs and her roommate looks over to her. "Is everything alright?" the blonde asks the redhead. "Everything is fine, I'm just glad that we can finally change. These robes are a bit too tight for my taste." Anna explains calmly and smiles cheerfully. "Oh, I can understand that. I heard that the house wardens, as well as the vice house wardens, have to wear them to each entrance ceremony and meeting.", her roommate tells her and Annabeth looks at her. "Really?", she didn't know that until now and her roommate nods her head. 'Uff, that sucks. But I don't even want to become a house warden or vice house warden.' In her opinion, it was enough to wear them once and then never again.

Then someone knocked on their door. "Please come in.", the two girls said, and a tall man with chest-length red hair and red eyes entered the room. "I hope I am not bothering you." he says calmly, and Annabeth gives him a sudden hug. "No, you're not big brother." Annabeth greets her older brother and her roommate gasps as she was surprised to find out that Annabeth is the little sister of the ex house warden Alexander McAlister.

"Wait, you're the sister of the former Diasomnia house warden?" the blonde girl asked in a high-pitched voice. Annabeth and Alexander looked at each other before looking back at Anna's roommate. "Yes, I'm his sister.", Annabeth answers and her roommate is totally speechless, what amuses both siblings very much.

"Why are you here, big brother?" Anna asks Alex and he chuckles for a moment. "I'm just bringing your uniforms toschool. Tomorrow will be your first day as Night Raven College students.", he explained to his sister. He then placed the uniforms on the beds of the two ladies. "Wow, that's more than just one uniform." Annabeth realizes and looks at the uniforms. "One uniform for attending classes, one for the dormitory, one for PE classes and one for alchemy classes.", he explains to her. According to her, that's 5 uniforms in total. What is a lot!

"I also made sure that you got pants instead of skirts," he says, and Annabeth looks delighted. "You really thought about the aspect of me not liking skirts.", she says amused and starts to giggle. "Lilia told me that there was some ruckus at the Opening Ceremony venue.", he says while sitting down. Annabeth just realizes that her roommate just left the room, so that the siblings could talk in private.

"Oh yeah, there were a pair of twins, if I guessed right and one of them was over bored and started a fight." Anna explains to Alex and he starts to grin. "I would have loved to watch this, but I already gave my position to Malleus at the end of last year," he says, sighing, disappointed. "I wish my ceremony had been this lively two years ago." He acts a bit overdramatic, which makes her laugh.

"It's your own fault to give Malleus Senpai your position, just because you got tired of it and didn't want to wear that ceremonial robe anymore." She starts to grin, and he stares at her for a moment. "I got it.", he says, while pouting a bit.

A lot of people believe that Malleus and Alexander had a match, supervised by the head mage, for the house warden position and Alexander lost against him. But the truth is Alexander gave the position to Malleus on purpose because he was annoyed with wearing the ceremonial robe and having to manage everything in the dorm. He had enough obligations at home, and he didn't need more at school.

Normally, Alexander would be too old to enroll in a school because he's already 22 years old. However, he got invited to Night Raven College two years ago and their parents were delighted that he could join a magical school. The siblings are aware that Lilia and Malleus are a lot older than them, but no one needs to know that.

"Next year, you will start your outside education." Annabeth just realized that and they only had one year together at Night Raven College. "That's true and I hope you make some good friends and make some meaningful memories here at school." He says because Annabeth and him were homeschooled and did rarely interact with other students.

"Your 16th birthday is also approaching, dear sister. That means you are about to make your debut in high society.", her brother reminded her, leaving a bitter taste in her mouth. "Do I really have to?" She asks and isn't interested in being part of high society surrounded by all those annoying nobles and aristocrats.

"If our mother would hear that from you right now, she sure would start crying and ask you why you don't want and so on." Her brother states and Anna starts to sigh deeply. She can imagine how her mother would be hurt by her decision, while her father tries to calm her down and be on Anna's side. Her father knows how much she dislikes social events. Because his daughter takes after him, rather than her mother.

"I know... but I really don't want to...", she says pouting while looking at Alex. He softly pats her head before he leaves the room. "See you at dinner.", he says before he leaves the room. Annabeth then changes into her dorm uniform, which is mostly black and green.

A white poplin blouse with pleats in the front, a large black bow tie around the neck, a black underbust corsage with buckles and straps, black shorts with a green stripe on the right and left side of the pants. Plus a black belt with spindles, a pair of black gloves,dark leggings and black green ankle boots. She also wears a black and green jacket like a cape and a small black and green hat on her head.

"That looks rather sexy." she admits, and her roommate finally comes back and gasps at how beautiful Annabeth appears in her dorm uniform. Anna laughs for a moment before looking at her roommate. "I'm happy that you like it.", Anna says smiling and the blonde girl nods her head quickly.

Then she looks at the clock to see what time it is. "Time to have dinner with my brother. See ya.", she says and leaves the room to have dinner with her brother. On her way she sees some other students and she greets them. The McAlister's are a famous royal family of demons in this world. Their beauty and perfection make them out stand and adored by many people.

So it's not surprising that people from her dorm will seek a closer relationship with her. She's aware that those people may have an ultimate motive. But she knows how to refuse them in a polite manner. "Anna, we're here?" Her brother calls out to her and Annabeth walks over to her brother, who is not alone. She realizes that the house warden and vice house warden, as well as a silver-haired guy, are standing next to him.

"I would like to introduce you to my little sister Annabeth. Annabeth, this is dorm leader Malleus Draconia, vice dorm leader Lilia Vanrouge and this is Silver. Like you, he arrived at Night Raven College today and was raised by Lilia and Malleus." Alexander introduces them to each other. "It is a pleasure to meet you." Annabeth says, bowing slightly in front of them. "Didn't you say that your sister is a wild tomboy?" Lilia suddenly mentions.

Annabeth gasps as she hears what her brother has told them. "Dear brother, why are you saying such vulgar things about me behind my back? That's not very kind." she exclaims indignantly. Alexander then starts to laugh. "It's not a lie and you can be a bit of a handful." he replies calmly, and Anna puffs her cheeks.

Lilia thinks that it's pretty amusing how the young McAlister starts to pout like an adorable child. Malleus just listens and doesn't say much. Anna can tell that he doesn't really know how to converse with others. "Can I touch Malleus Senpai's horns?" she suddenly asks and everyone looks at her shocked. "What? They look pretty cool.", she muttered while crossing her arms. Malleus is taken aback by her words. Lilia starts laughing and Silver holds his head for a moment because he's close to fall asleep again.

The 1.89 m tall red haired man lays his right hand on Malleus' left shoulder. "Would you allow her to touch them or rather not?", he asks him sheepeshly, while Lilia still laughs. "If Sebek was here, he sure would do everything to not let her touch them." Lilia says while Silver is almost falling asleep.

"He could be lucky that she at least asked before touching. Normally she would touch everything without asking for permission.", Alexander explains to them and Annabeth glares at her older brother. "Looks like we're about to get some life in this dormitory." Lilia says, amused, with a meaningful look in his eyes. "You can touch them if you like." Malleus replies shyly and allows Annabeth to feel his horns. She touches the horns of the fae gently as her eyes start to sparkle. "They feel so good." She whispers to herself, and they have a pleasant texture. Lilia and Alexander couldn't believe what they saw.

"Hey! When I asked if I could touch them, you said no." Alexander says in a jealous tone. "I never thought he would allow her so quickly to touch them", Lilia says surprised and even Silver was perplexed by that. She could call herself lucky that Sebek wasn't here. Sebek would shout at her how disrespectful her behavior is and try to get her away from Malleus.

Annabeth enjoys her dinner with the others and her brother tells them some embarrassing stories and Anna tries to make him shut up. How much older brothers love to tease their youngersisters? However, Annabeth turns the tables and talks about her brother's most embarrassing moments in life. Then Alexander puts a hand over Anna's mouth, and Lilia really enjoys listening to what those two have to say.

Malleus starts to calm down around them. At first the black-haired fae was very nervous because he would meet the former house warden's younger sister and he doesn't know how to interact with girls that much. He's also an only child. It's fun for him to watch those siblings interact. Lilia looks at Malleus for a moment and he can tell that he likes the siblings. Alexander was the first to ask Malleus directly if he wanted to join him for lunch and dinner together.

Alex's courage surprised both fae back then. "What's so shocking about that, please? I am a demon, after all, and no less terrifying than a dragon fae. The only difference is that I'm just better at communicating and interacting with others than Malleus, that's all." Alexander's words really broke the ice between them.

Not only Alexander but also Annabeth was able to figure out that Malleus had issues with communication and interaction with others. That's why she asked if she could touch his horns. Lilia was pretty aware that she was trying to encourage him to speak more.

Demons were viewed as roughless and cold blooded monsters, but the siblings showed how wrong people really were. Alexander earned the respect he deserved through hardwork and because of his kind attitude towards his peers. It was such a shame that next year he would no longer be with them.

Lilia did hear from some upper classmen that even though Alexander was still a freshman and in his first school year, he challenged the former house warden, who was in his 2nd year, to a duel and the head mage supervised the match. It was a total surprise for Lilia that a youngster like him dared to fight against his house warden for justice.

After having dinner with her brother, Anna heads back to her dorm room to unpack her things and prepare for school tomorrow. She is already excited and wonders how school life will be in the future. "I'm sure it will be an exciting year.", she whispers to herself and does get ready for bed.
