       ---------------------------------------------------------
       This is a summary of the story up to approximately the point
       that it has been written to, and will be updated by Moderators
       when they get the chance:
       Summary:
       Chapter 1:
       Belle is a new girl at the Schola de aeterni, which roughly
       translates to School of Eternity. She has a record for running
       away from her schools just to annoy her parents, whom she
       believes want the schools to be responsible for their unstable
       daugter instead of themselves. Her plans to run away, however,
       begin to change when she meets Link, who helps her unpack while
       her room mate Padme shows one of the new girls (Duck) to see the
       headmistress.
       When she returns, Link has all ready left to go to his own room,
       where he is slightly grilled by his room mates Edmund and Fakir.
       Their conversations quiet down and one by one they leave the
       room.
       In another part of the school, Duck leaves the office with a
       load of papers and runs right into Merida Dumbra, the
       headmistress' daughter, who enters the office right after
       helping Duck gather her papers again. Unfortunately, Duck seems
       to want to run into everybody. She crashes into Fakir and they
       end up in a staring contest.
       Merida leaves the office and returns to her dorm room where she
       meets the other girls in singles (Lucy and Tinkerbell). They all
       share a common room. They have a long conversation. Unlike the
       conversation Belle has with Headmistress Dumbra, who warns her
       that her monkey business will not be tolerated. When she leaves,
       she hears Link playing his insturment. She stays to listen, and
       when she gets found out, she sits beside him.
       Chapter 2:
       Edmund finds Fakir in the middle of his staring contest and
       manages to break it up by flustering Duck. But they are not
       without an audience. Padme spots them and watches as Edmund
       diffuses the situation. Padme appears to develop feelings for
       the boy, though she does not know his name, feelings that are
       crushed when she overhears him talking with Fakir about his
       rather manipulative personality.
       Meanwhile, Merida, and Lucy make fast friends with Tinkerbell,
       and it isn't long before they find Duck, fresh out of her
       staring contest, sitting in the courtyard. They learn that Tink
       and Duck are sharing a room. They drop all of Duck's things off
       before heading to the cafeteria where they meet Zelda and learn
       a little about the ancestry of the elves, which Lucy thinks she
       might be.
       Padme, however, runs from the courtyard and into a classroom
       where she waits for her teacher to talk with him. While she's
       sitting there, Belle and Link, who entered the building after
       hearing a crash, find her and Belle convinces her to talk about
       her situation. Link convinces Belle to leave, but not before
       Belle says that she considers Padme her friend and that if
       someone hurts her, Belle'd give them he**. This statement helped
       to cheer Padme up considerably.
       Dean enters the room shortly after and cheers her up even more,
       then they head to the cafeteria, but on the way there, Padme
       senses something different about Dean. When she confronts him
       about it, he kisses her. They are broken apart when Edmund
       passes by, greeting Dean. Padme is shaken up and returns to her
       room where she sees Belle curled up with a book.
       Chapter 3:
       Belle notices Padme's return and immediately shuts her book,
       wanting to know what is wrong. Padme tells her that her
       situation just became more complicated and that Dean confessed
       his feelings toward her. She decides that she needed to go talk
       to Dean, so she ran out of the room, leaving Belle dumbfounded.
       Link makes the perfect entrance and they agree that when they
       find out the identity of the unlucky SOB that hurt their friend,
       he was in for a world of pain.
       Padme had run to Dean's room and they cleared up the
       misunderstanding. Apparently, Padme creates an emotional link
       with a person when their eyes meet and it's quite painful to
       break, for both parties. She was pleasantly confused when she
       found out that his kiss from earlier didn't cause her pain like
       she'd thought it would. She explains that normally, neither
       party is attracted to an outside party once the bond is created.
       A big gooey scene ensues and Dean wants to make sure that his
       new relationship with Padme isn't in jeopardy, so he leaves to
       seek out Edmund.
       Meanwhile, Edmund goes to the cafeteria and sits with his sister
       and her new friends and has a conversation with them. Suddenly,
       his heart twitched uncomfortably, but he put the effect down to
       hunger. Dean finds him and pulls him away. They talk and Dean
       finds out that Edmund has no idea who Padme is, so he let's him
       go. Unfortunately, Belle arrives and drags the boy out by the
       ear. They end up in a screaming match for all the world to see.
       *Their fight is broken up by Duck, who barrels into the fighting
       group and they all fall down.
       Chapter 4:
       Edmund curls up and starts clutching at his chest again,
       worrying the surrounding bystanders. Dean returned, demanding
       answers, which can only be given by Padme. Dean leads the way,
       then he books it and he and Padme attempt to get away from the
       interrogation before it starts. Meanwhile the group entered the
       empty room and scrounged up Dean's phone number.
       Meanwhile, Sherlock, John, and Hermione arrive at the school.
       Sherlock is bored, and Hermione is breezing through her homework
       while they each observe the giant group heading to the boy's
       dorms. Sherlock sneaks to the window to eavesdrop on the
       conversation, hoping for something to distract him from his
       boredom.
       Padme arrives and explains the bind.
       Chapter 5:
       Tinkerbell doesn't understand why the emotions didn't work on
       Edmund and follows him.
       Edmund has a nightmare, and Fakir gets his sister for him.
       Dean and Padme walk into the woods, and soon get lost. Aang, who
       happens to be there and knows the woods well, helps them find
       their way out after Mo-Mo assuages Padme's reservations.
       Lucy calms Edmund down and they talk about his repetitive dream
       The next morning, Mike Stamford meets John, and says that he met
       someone who could be John's room mate. Hermione sits alone,
       sadly until Belle and Tinkerbell show up. Belle and Hermione
       take to each other, and are soon discussing books.
       As Mike introduces John to Sherlock, Sherlock second guesses
       everything, startling John, and then Sherlock reads John's life
       story, and tells John the room number and level
       Lucy and Edmund go have fun, swimming in the pond.
       Last Post up to this point: (End of Chapter 5, pg. 5)
       
       "Playing," Edmund answered smiling. He kicked off his
       shoes and jumped into the crisp, blue water. He paddled along
       and waved his sister in.
       ___________
       "True," Belle relented. "So what else do you like?"
