"Wake up, Y/N! You're going to be late for your first day!" Tori called out softly, standing hesitantly at the edge of Y/N's bed. She tugged at the corner of the blanket, her movements timid.

Y/N groaned and yanked the blanket over her head. "Five minutes," she muttered, her voice muffled.

Tori bit her lip, glancing toward the window. After a moment of hesitation, she stepped over and opened it, letting a crisp breeze fill the room. "Um, sorry, but you really have to get up," she said, her voice a little firmer.

Y/N's only response was to bury herself deeper into the bed.

Tori shifted nervously on her feet, wringing her hands. "I-I didn't want to do this, but you leave me no choice," she whispered. Her hands glowed faintly, and Y/N suddenly felt herself lifting off the bed.

Tori ducked her head, her cheeks flushed, but there was a small, shy smile tugging at her lips. "I thought this might help."

"What the-?!" Y/N yelped, jerking upright as she realized she was floating mid-air. "Oh my god!"

Tori burst out laughing, her hands glowing faintly as she guided Y/N's weightless form toward the bathroom.

"What's happening?!" Y/N demanded, flailing her arms as she floated toward the tiled floor.

"I'm just helping you out," Tori said with a mischievous grin. She released her hold as Y/N's feet gently touched the ground.

"Not funny!" Y/N shot back, trying to regain her balance.

"Go take a shower already," Tori called over her shoulder as she headed downstairs. "I'll keep helping you if you don't get moving!"

Y/N glared after her, muttering, "This is so not funny," before shuffling reluctantly toward the shower.

After they finished getting ready and put on their uniforms, their watches beeped, signaling the day's tasks. Both Y/N and Tori stepped out of their room, and as they did, the petals of the flower-shaped lock on the door began to glow. The flower shimmered brightly for a moment before shrinking into a tiny bud.

Y/N stared at it, puzzled. "What just happened?" she asked, glancing at Tori.

Tori smiled, taking Y/N's hand to guide her down the hall. "It's the room's lock," she explained. "When we leave, it transforms into this small, sealed bud. No one but us can open it or get in while it's locked like this."

Y/N nodded, glancing back at the now tiny flower. "That's... actually pretty cool."

"Exactly," Tori said with a grin. "Now, come on. We've got a busy day."

Y/N and Tori entered their first class, finding two seats next to each other. As they settled in, Y/N nudged Tori.

"Hey, Tori," she whispered, glancing up. "Why doesn't this classroom have a roof?" She pointed at the open ceiling. Above them, the vast sky stretched endlessly, with soft beams of sunlight filtering through. Flowers floated mid-air, shimmering gently in the golden light.

Tori followed Y/N's gaze and smiled. "That's because the dragons can come whenever they want. It's designed for them to have easy access," she explained casually.

Y/N blinked in amazement. "That's... so cool."

Before Tori could respond, the murmurs around them died down as a figure strode into the classroom.
