"I'm from the Solstice area." She answered. "I've never been to Rise. Is it nice there?"

"Yeah, I guess," Nisha said. "It's pretty boring." Her eyes flicked away.

"That's fair. Solstice is all big high rises and stuff. None of the rich people want to live by anything cool. Just like, parks and shopping." Opal chuckled.

"My town is pretty small, but there's still nothing cool in it," Nisha said, shrugging.

An intercom buzzed on, and a female voice announced, "All students please report to the auditorium in the main building. Thank you."
"Guess we better get going," Roux said, looking around before heading towards what seemed to be the right place.

"Yeah, I guess." Opal followed her new friend into the auditorium.

Everyone filed in, Albion taking a place next to a girl dressed in pink without really looking at her. He kept his eyes on the stage ahead of them where the headmaster and deputy headmaster stood. Roux continued to chatter idly, while Nisha had mostly lapsed into silence. A slightly older man stood at the edge of the room, apparently keeping an eye out for anyone causing trouble.

Fuchsia looked at him. She thought she recognized that face. "Hey, you. Are you one of the Blakes?" She asked.

Albion glanced at her, though it took him a moment to answer. "Yeah. Albion Blake," he confirmed. "Who're you..?"

"Not really," Albion responded.

"Yeah, I mean, I guess it might not be up to us, after all." She said awkwardly, turning even pinker than she usually was.

"Right. I'll deal with it when it comes up," albion said. "Anyway, I think the ceremony is starting." He shut his mouth.
The headmaster stepped up to greet the new students, giving a short speech to welcome them to the school. Following that, the deputy headmaster stepped forward. "Tonight, you will all sleep in the ballroom. Tomorrow initiation begins. Prepare yourselves. Dismissed."
"What are we supposed to prepare ourselves for exactly?" Roux muttered, frowning.

"Initiation, didn't you hear her?" Tang said playfully. "I bet it's dangerous or something. I mean, it's got to be if we've got to prepare for it, right?" Tang said excitedly.
Opal was equally confused at what exactly they were supposed to be preparing for, but didn't say anything.
"Hmph. No big deal. I'm going to get some sleep." Fuchsia decided.
Gri listened patiently and then began wandering to find a book or something she could read. This place had to have a library...

"But prepare how? They didn't tell us what it was," Roux muttered.
Albion nodded once, and ultimately took a different route to the same goal.
"Let's get to bed," Nisha said, sighing.
Xanthene knew she should probably get to sleep, but she headed off in another direction instead. She wanted to do a bit more exploring before tomorrow. She found her way towards the library.
