Rio shook his head. "Headmistress, after what I saw and been through. Nothing scares me." he said to her "And thank you." He smiled at her.

Atiyana only laughed, " Rio, you can keep your little facade up as long as you want. I can see your emotions, and I know that that little anger of yours isn't the only thing showing. " she said standing with her sneer once she heard a knock on the door. She nodded as the door was unlocked, and the guards walked in, bowing to the headmistress. " We are ready for the child. ' he said before standing and looking to Rio.

He nodded his head and started to walk to the door. He looked back to the Headmistress. "It was nice knowing and being under you." he said as he walked out of the door.

Ati had already turned back to the fire, and the guards lead him outside, into the courtyard where a group of five phoenix were gathered, one holding the trunk in his talons, while the others held a box, just big enough to hold Rio so that he wouldn't get terribly wet during the trip.
" Go ahead, get in there. " the guard said, pointing to the box.

Rio nodded and got into the box. He waited for them to close it.

The door was shut behind them, then the guard knocked on the roof three times. The five bird all flew up at once, lifting the weight easily high into the air. Then they were off, for how ever many hours it took.

Rio looked at the guy. "What is this sister school called?" he asked him.

The birds didn't even look back when the child spoke, instead they just kept flying, no point in wasting energy talking.

Rio nodded and sat back. He would find out sooner or later.

Somewhere on the long journey it started to rain, soaking the phoenix birds to their core. Their flight was slowed, but their adult feathers handled it better than that of some younger fire birds. Though, soon enough just below them the lead bird sighted, Zuster, the sister school. The castle walls were thick with ivy, every window bared from the outside, even the darkness of the stones left a cold feeling to run up the spine of any who saw it. With but a few calls to one another the fiery birds all tipped their wings and started down into the school's yard, where already there were several guards and a tall, dark looking headmaster waiting for them. The birds landed the box down almost expertly, and the guards stepped forward, one of them opening up the door. " Come on half wit, we haven't got all day. " he said, as the birds dropped the ropes and trunk, only waiting to see where they could rest.

He looked at the guard and nodded. He got out of the box and started to walk to the door. He did not like this place but he would get used to it. At least he would not make Lissy regret knowing him.

The guards filled in behind him, all marching behind the headmaster who stalked in front of them. He didn't seem to happy to be disturbed in the middle of the night. " Put the little weakling in the east wing, he was sent here for a reason, that wing should break him a bit. " he said before turning down a hall, clearly leading to a warmer place, to which rio was not invited. Instead the guards pushed him onward down a cold hall, lined with rooms that held only a bed, a few sheets and a blanket.

Rio looked at his room and nodded. He walked over and started to make up his bed. He made up his bed and sat down on it.

Only one guard followed him into the room, while the others grumbled and marched off to their respective rooms. That guard dropped the trunk down at the bottom of the bed, then stood and watched Rio for a moment, " I don't know what you did that was so terrible that they had to send you here, but it won't be easy, just so you know. " he said, using a bit softer voice than some of the other men had.

Rio nodded to the guard. "Thank you for telling me." he said as he unlocked his trunk and started to dig out some things. A pen, ink, and paper.
