He paused just outside the door to the boy's dorms and checked the clock that hung over it. Nine-thirty...seems that I don't have too much time to get there, then. He ducked into his room and collected a small backpack, checking to make sure it had everything he needed. Then he pulled on a jacket and left.
The walk up to the RSS fort was a long one, but a necessary one. After all, if he was ever going to hope to equal his father's services to the Supreme Law, knowing the identities of the next generation of revolutionaries would be incredibly useful. Even so, there was a part of him that rebelled against the thought of betraying his peers like this. After all, he’d been offered the chance at becoming one of the government’s ‘young agents’ and had turned it down, saying he would rather wait a few years before making that choice. It had caused some conflict with his father, but he knew this way was better. Indeed, the conflict was even useful, as it created a sense that he was against the government. But he didn’t want to crush rebellions in the way his father and his colleagues did. Not with this group, anyway.
Reaching the hall, he noted to himself that only Jessy James Brown, the group’s leader, was present. “Where is everybody?”
The other boy shrugged, “It’s still only a quarter to ten, Markus. The meeting starts at ten. Not everyone here is as keen as you two.”
Markus frowned, “Us two…?” He turned around and Fresia was right behind him, smiling.
“How do you expect to outwit an agent when you can’t even hear me walking behind you.” She laughed, “I wasn’t even trying!”

Tiffers will be replaced, don't worry. I'll make sure we have our 12 characters.
Sorry, I can't write a story at the moment. Sorry. I'll make sure all of you aren't left out. Maybe our new character will be a boy. Actually I think I'll make him later. We need a boy.
I want to continue that, but I can't. It's getting exciting.

I'll write something tomorrow, I just can't at the moment. NY time is late. I'm tired and can't write at the moment, although it's very tempting, I'm writing up a science lab. Sorry. I'll write about the meeting tomorrow.

As he got to the hall Andrew saw Fresia and that dodgy guy Markus already seated. Wow, they are eager he thought as he slunk into another seat.
"Ah Andrew, going to join in a bit more today?" Jessy inquired and he replied with a grunt and looked away in a way that he hoped look like he didn't care if he was here or not.
Slowly more people filtered into the area. It looked like they were going to have a full house this time.
Andrew sighed and looke up at the ornate carvings engraved in the magnificent ceiling (he decided he really shouldn't read so much). The ceiling was his favourite part of the room. It was especially useful when the meetings got boring, to just be able to look up and get lost in the swirling, ever-twisting and changing patterns which hung from the roof.
A curt cough brought him back down and he noticed that the room was full.

The sun had start to set on the school while I ran to the club. I was really nervous, because I had heard that everyone was older than me. Being my mousy self, I couldn’t help but shake and sweat in nerve-wracking anticipation.
The sun cast a dark, reddish glow as it disappeared behind the horizon. I had wanted to come early, so I snuck out after dinner when we were to report to our rooms. I didn’t want to face the dark, so I came 4 hours earlier than needed. I had brought my softest pillow, my fuzzy blanket, old sketch book, pencil, a granola bar (I was to nervous to eat at dinner), and homework. It was all stuffed away with my cute kitten Free-Free in my red cotton rucksack. As darkness cloaked the lush, green landscape I started running harder. You’ll be there soon, I thought to myself, then you’ll be in the RSS fort. A member.
I was starting to get thirsty and I had forgotten water. Hmmm, I thought, there’s a stream up ahead… My throat burned and felt dry and charred as I gasped and ran over to the water. When I finally reached it, I fell to the ground, cupping my hands. I looked down and groaned at my reflection in the water. My eyes had changed from brown to a dark red. I looked like some devil child.
My eyes changed color when my mood changed, especially when I was scared or nervous. It was either a light, golden brown or a dark red. It was a curse.
I figured there was nothing that could change that, so I drank some of the ice cold and then splashed some on my face and continued walking towards the fort.
Esperanza stumbled through the fort door with a rucksack and her cat meowing. Her hair was a mess and her face was wet. But from what? Well, it wasn't raining...
"Hello Esperanza, so glad you could join us." Leo took his place of authority in the RSS, making Esperanza shrink back. All of us stared at her disheveled look, and she seemed nervous. Knowing Leo, I would be too.
