It was early morning with a light rain pouring down from the sky, as a lone figure walked forward with his hands behind his back. The figure had on a purple hood, so it was hard to see his face. He stepped up towards a black metal gate that was currently closed. Putting his hand up, the gates slowly opened with a very eerie creek. The figure stepped forward and saw and looked as he was in an open field, surrounded by some trees. He looked around, as if he were inspecting the area.
"Intriguing…" the figure thought. "This is where it all shall begin. Yes, where it all begins…" he thought again. He soon felt the wind to blow, as the trees blew with it. This didn't alert the figure, however, as he already knew who it was. His hood blew off revealing his face. The figure was an old man, probably in his late 70's, but still he moved around like he was still in his teens. He had long white hair, which went to his mid-back and a curly beard on his chin that went down to his upper chest. He was wearing light pink reading glasses and a brown-blackish robe with a hood and light purple highlights.
The man smiled as he stroked his chin, smiling as a swirling time vortex suddenly appeared behind him. He slowly turned around, with his hands behind his back and looked at the vortex. The wind started growing stronger, as the vortex grew bigger. Suddenly, from out of the vortex, appeared several figures. As they appeared, the vortex started to disappear, and the wind started to die down. The old man smiled brightly at the figures.
"Welcome, my friends." He said, as he bowed respectfully to them. The figures did the same. All three of the figures wore robes similar to the old man's, and they covered their faces, until they took them off. One of the figures had black eyes and black hair with white highlights that was pulled back into a ponytail at the end. He had some sideburns and some peach fuzz on his chin. He had a cocky smile on his face.
The second figure had the face of a snowman. His skin, eyes, and hair were all bluish-white in color, and his nose was a carrot. His hair was spiky, standing straight up and he had a scowl on his face. Finally, the third figure was a woman. Her skin was pale and gray and her eyes were strangely purple, despite the purple reading glasses she had on. Her hair was gray and long, as it flowed freely down her back. She smiled respectfully at the old man.
"So, I take it this is where the school shall be?" the snowman asked.
"Yes." The old man answered, nodding. He turned around and looked at the empty space in the field. "This is where the next generation shall come forth to learn and grow."
"It shall hopefully be a wondrous experience." The woman said. "Not only for them, but for us."
"Indeed, it will be, Greem." The old man said.
"But…" the first figure said. "…where's the school? All I see is an empty field."
"That's because the school is not yet here, Cley." The old man told him, chuckling softly. But Cley just looked confused.
"But then, how do we teach students if we have no school?" Cley asked, making the snowman sigh.
"I swear, Caelus, did you have to hire him?" the snowman asked the old man. "The only thing this muscle-bound oaf is good for is asking questions and taking up space." Cley glared at him.
"You trying to start something, snowman?" Cley shouted at him.
"What did you call me?" The snowman yelled back.
"I called you a snowman! You going to do something about it?"
"You bet your ass I'm going to do something about it!" Cley and the snowman continued to growl and glare at each other, until Greem separated them.
"That's enough. Both of you stop this." Greem commanded, scowling. "You're adults who are going to be teachers. If the students see you fighting, what example do you think you'll be setting?" Cley and the snowman looked away from each other. Caelus chuckled to himself, and looked at the empty lot.
"To answer your question, Cley…" Caelus said, stopping as he closed his eyes. He put his hands in front of him, and energy gathered in front of him, as his eyes suddenly purple. His energy turned into a mystical ball of energy, and Caelus shot it into the air. The energy ball broke apart, emitting an explosion and a bright light. The large energy ball broke apart into smaller balls of energy and the three teachers looked as they fell to the ground, covering all of the open field.
The balls eventually stopped falling, and soon a large building that looked like a cathedral and a mansion mixed appeared before the four individuals. Caelus smiled as he looked at the school. He turned around, and looked at his assistants.
"My friends…" Caelus said. "I give you the Skeelz Academy." Cley looked amazed, and Caelus smiled. It always pleased him to see people amazed at his skills. He then looked at Greem.
"Greem, did you and Deebler send the invitations?" Caelus asked. Greem nodded.
"Yes, I had my demons put a letter on each applicant's doorstep." Greem answered.
"Yeah, same here. If those kids have any sense, they'll accept." The snowman known as Deebler said.
"Hey, is it just going to be us teaching?" Cley asked. Caelus looked at Cley, and put his finger to his chin.
"You bring up an interesting point, Cley." Caelus said, as he conjured up a small ball of energy, which magically turned into a piece of paper. Holding up his hand, a small feather appeared in Caelus's hand, as he started writing on the paper with the feather. When he was finished, he smiled, liking how it looked. His feather soon disappeared, and the paper turned back into a small energy ball. Caelus put both of his hands up in front of him and the ball multiplied. The old man nodded to the balls as they flew off into the sky into parts unknown.
"Well, that takes care of that." Caelus said, grinning. "Now then, shall we get the academy ready for our students?" he asked, his comrades, who nodded. They all silently then walked up the stairs into the college-like-school.
Back home…
You walked out of your house for a brief moment, as you went to check your mailbox. You sighed as it included the usual mail: bills, late payments, free sweepstakes, etc. And all of it was addressed to your parents. You were prepared to throw it all away, until you stopped at one letter you neglected to see. It was a strange white envelope with strange writing on it, and the strangest thing was, it was addressed to you!
Throwing all the other mail on your kitchen table, you sat down, and opened the letter. You looked at it, and silently read it.
"Dear Mr. or Mrs.,
It is a pleasure to meet you. I know what you're thinking. What the heck is this letter? Is this some sort of practical joke? Well, I'm telling you, 'no', it's not a joke of any kind. This letter is actually an application that was mailed to you, because of your 'gifts' or as you call them 'powers' or 'curses'. You are one of the few individuals who have been sent this letter to ask to join our special school for people with powers, which we call, The Skeelz Academy. Here, you will meet many other people, just like you. You will learn all you wish to know. You will learn the reasons why you have these powers, how you were born with them, and how they will help you later in life. I know that you probably do not believe me, mainly because you are afraid you will not get the answers you seek, or because you still believe this is a joke. I apologize if you still think so. However, I hope that you will soon change your mind. If you wish to join us, then please provide all the necessary information on the application we have provided for you. If you do not wish to join us, then simply discard the letter with the application. However, I should warn you that this is a once in a lifetime opportunity, and chances like this, do not happen often. We thank you very much for taking the time to read our letter, and hope to see you at our Academy, very soon.
Sincerely,
Greem Reepier, Headmistress of the Skeelz Academy"

"Thank you for applying for the Academy. The results of your application will be shown soon." A look of determintion is shown on your face. A new chapter in your life is set to begin…
First off, I just wanted to tell the people of Total Drama Island Resort to not worry. I'm not giving up on my story! I just couldn't resist making one of these since I saw so many of them on Fanfiction. I hope that is fine with all of you. Please understand that if I do this story and TDIR, that it will be very hard to update both, so if I don't update in a set period of time, its cause I'm working on chapters for one of the stories.
Secondly, I wanted to thank Kunnaki for giving me inspiration to write this story. ^^ You're a true friend, dude! And I also wanted to thank King Kubar for inspiring me with his superhero school story. I'm your biggest fan! I think. Anyway, I could go on and on thanking people, so I'll stop here.
I hope you enjoyed the intro I made! And if you didn't understand some of it, sorry. I copied the application from TDIR, but I changed some of it around a bit. I hope many people join this story. Later!
