"What would I miss? I wouldn't be with my parents either way. My friends left me for dead, and I have no intention of getting new ones so any of the places in town we used to go have very little point to them. I suppose the teachers were nice."

Xanthene shrugged. "It's illogical, but sometimes I still miss home. I know that I won't ever go back, and I don't really want to, but sometimes I do. I hate them, but my parents are still my parents."

Gri looked down. "I do miss my friends sometimes." She admitted. "...I guess that's why I'm talking to you."

"Normal, I guess. Or maybe there's something wrong with us. Who knows." Xanthene shrugged. She was inclined to believe the latter.

"Yeah." Gri agreed. "It's hard to know if it's just the company I miss, or if it's them. Or how much I trusted them. When I know I'll never trust someone like that again."

Xanthene was quiet for a long moment, thinking, then she said, "Right. I'm gonna head to bed. I'm a bitch when I'm tired, and I'm willing to bet they'll wake us up early for whatever this initiation is."

Gri nodded. "Goodnight... Xanthene." She was surprised with herself that she bothered to remember this girls name.

"Night, Gri," Xanthene responded, waving and heading towards the ballroom.

Gri made her way back with her books.
The next morning they were politely informed of what was to come. They were assigned lockers for their things and allowed to explore the school until midday, when the initiation - a test of their fighting skill - would begin. Rumours abounded tat teams were getting picked soon, too.

"Do you think we'll choose our own teams?" Roux asked Tang, who she had stuck with for most of the morning. She had no one better to spend time with, and she'd spotted the Skobeloff girl again earlier.

"No idea. Why, you got people in mind?" Tang asked.

"Other than you, not really. I know some people I don't want on my team..."

"Oh yeah? Like who?" Tang asked.

"The daughter of Mr. Skobeloff, from the pharmaceutical company," Roux responded.

"Why, you have a run in with her?" Tang's eyes fixed on Roux much sharper than they had a moment ago.
