3rd person POV:

In the dorms of the newly created second-place team, Simin, the leader, was awoken by the sunlight coming from s small opening from the curtains.

Checking his scroll, he found that he and his team had about two hours before they had to be in class.

Simin:(sigh)...

Looking around the dorm, Simin saw how the beds were shifted around from how they originally were due to conflict between Lycan and Ragora.

Ragora's bed was in the right corner of the room, against the wall with the window.

Vella was on the same side only in the left corner. Across from her was Lycan against the wall that had the door to the dorm in the middle.

Simin was on that side as well, however, his bed was between the entrance and bathroom door, making him the only one not in a corner.

He didn't wish to accidentally listen in on someone use the bathroom so he had moved away from it.

Their bed set up had left plenty of space in the middle but currently, they had nothing to fill it with.

Sitting up, Simin found the maiden of sleep had abandoned him for the morning.

With his spare time, he began thinking through the "reward" that this year's students will receive for graduating in first-place which team GOLD currently possessed.

Reading the rules on Beacon's website, Simin got a somewhat better explanation of what this was about.

Simin:(mind) Looks like this game is only for this year's students... The upperclassmen and next year's first years aren't going to get this deal...

Simin:(mind) The rest is just what the headmaster said, only differently worded.

Simin:(mind) I don't get it... What makes this year's students so special that we'd get to participate in something like this?

Simin:(mind) Is this some kind of experiment? Strange to perform it on what's essentially the future protectors of the world.

Ragora: Ughhh...

A groggy Ragora sat up, with bed hair.

Ragora:...

Simin:...

Being across from each other, their eyes quickly met.

Simin:(waves)

Ragora:...(looks away)

Simin:(mind) What a familiar reaction...

(Opening theme)

Lycan: Come on, I think the class is this way!

In uniform, team SLVR which was being led by Lycan because he began running off leaving the others to go after them.

Ragora: Vomit boy, stop storming off and trying to lead us!

Vella: Yeah, Simin is our leader after all.

Lycan: I reject him as our leader!

Simin: Less than a day has past and I already have a mutiny on my hands...

Lycan: No offense dude, but there's only one person I can accept leading me.

Lycan: And that's me! So I'll be taking charge! Onward!
