In an unknown person's point of view, their eyes warily open and close before waking up fully and seeing an orange haired girl fill their view.

"Wake up, lazy butt!" she says before dashing to the side.

Looking at her fully, she wears a collared black sleeveless vest, with a blue central front section with red accents, her vest has her emblem, on the back. Under the vest, she wears a white sleeveless t-shirt with a heart-shaped cutout above her breast line in the center accompanied with a pair of white detached sleeves on each arm, and a pair of light pink fingerless gloves. She sports a short pink skirt with a single white layer under it. Her white ankle boots sport pink soles with part of her emblem, the lighting bolt, on them and low heels with pink laces, the tops are folded over revealing the pink lining. She also wears a silver armor piece that wraps around waist, under her breasts and around the back on her neck with metal connecting each piece together at the front.

The person waking up appears to be a teen boy with long black hair that ends midway down his back. There is a magenta streak on the left side of his hair. His eyes match the streak in his hair, and his clothing often appears to be influenced by chinese culture. The outfit consists of a dark green, diagonally-buttoned, long-sleeved tailcoat that is red on the inside, with black and gold trimming and pink cuffs. The trimming goes down the right side of his torso and forms a black collar. Along with this, he wears a black, long-sleeved shirt beneath the suit and light-tan pants with black shoes. He ties his hair back in a low ponytail.

The chinese boy gets up with a groan as the orange haired girl hounds him.

"It's morning! It's morning! It's morning! It's morning!" she sings.

He sighs again as the scene changes to him brushing his teeth in the restroom while his friend continues to talk, "I can't believe we've been at Beacon for a full twenty-four hours! Not that I thought we'd get kicked out or anything, I mean, you're the perfect student and I'm... well, I'm me! But it's just crazy, you know?"

The scene changes to the ballroom, where the two are readying themselves. The orange haired girl is brushing her hair while the chinese boy is tightening the strings on his sleeping bag. The former continues talking, "We've been friends for soooooooo long! What are the odds we'd still be together? Well, not "together-together..." Not that I'm not saying that you're not handsome; you are handsome, but that'd just be weird, right?"

The scene changes again as the two are in the middle of eating their breakfast, the energetic fellow having a pancake hanging from her mouth as she is still talking.

"Right! What was I thinking? But still, I hope we end up on the same team together!," she slurps up the rest of her pancake, "Oohhhh! We should come up with some sort of plan, to make sure we end up on the same team together! What if we bribe the headmaster? No, that won't work. He has the school."

The scene changes again as the two are readying themselves in the locker room, the chinese boy loading his weapons that are hybrid between a gun and a dagger each while his friend is still talking.

"I know! We'll have some sort of signal! Like a distress signal!" she then gasps, "A secret signal so we can find each other in the forest! Can you imitate a sloth?"

It's when the boy finally replies, "Nora?"

"Yes, Ren?"

"I don't think sloths make a lot of noise," says Ren, sheathing his weapons in his sleeves.

Nora thinks about it for a moment, "That's why it's perfect! No one will suspect we're working together!"

Ren smiles before shutting his locker, "Come on Nora, let's go."
