Mari went into the bathroom and locked the door. She looked at herself in front of the mirror and slowly reached her hand to the cloth that wrapped around her neck. She untied the little bow that held it in place and unraveled the cloth, exposing her gem. The pretty light blue gem shone like a light, giving off a warm blue glow. She smiled and materialized a clean cloth from her gem, and went over to the sink to get it wet. She cleaned her gem until it was very shiny, then wrapping it up again with the dark blue cloth, being careful do the bow just right. She puts the bow right over the gem, so it wouldn't be obvious that something foreign is there. Mari wanted to keep her secret safe. She unlocked the door and walked outside to the common area where everyone was sleeping. Technically gems don't need any sleep due to they get all the energy that they need from their gems, but it was nice to do so the time can pass by fast. Mari heads over to her assigned sleeping mat and sat down cross-legged. She found a piece of paper and a pencil in the bag she had near the mat, and started to write about her experiences here, she promised Steven that she would.
Ruby was talking to Yang at her own sleeping mat, that is, until she saw Mari. She nudged Yang. "Hey, it's that girl I was talking about at the ceremony!"
"Well, why don't we go talk to her!"
"Wait, Yang! Ack!" Ruby said, as Yang picked her up by the arm and was dragging her to the mysterious blue girl.
Mari saw Yang walking towards her, dragging Ruby. She put her notebook down.
"Hello!" Yang said, extending her o's.
"Good evening." Mari said nodding.
"My sister has been talking about you!"
Mari raises her eyebrows, "Really?" Ruby blushes.
"Yeah. Heh. What's your name by the way? I never asked before." Ruby asks.
"Aquamarine. But I like to be called Mari." Mari said.
"That's. An interesting name." Yang said.
"Isn't that a name for a rock?" Ruby asked.
"Yes. Is it bad?" Mari asked, worried that they knew that she was a gem, if they already haven't figured it out. Probably not.
"No! No! I like it! It has a good ring to it." Ruby exclaimed. Mari breathed a sigh of relief internally.
"Why is your skin blue?" Yang said. Ruby nudged her.
"Um." Mari was trying to make up an excuse. "Birth defect." she settled on.
"Oh."
"Nice talking to you, see you at initiation!" Ruby said, grabbing Yang and dragging her away in a hurry to avoid further embarrassment. Mari waved at them.
Ruby and Yang then tried talking to a girl who was reading her book, obviously not appreciating their presence, and once it got to the point where Weiss came over and started scolding them for being so loud, the girl blew out the candle and everything went dark. Mari could see just fine in the dark, and she could see that the girl could see just fine too. She read somewhere that faunuce could see almost perfectly in the dark, but it didn't matter. She just shrugged it off.

It was morning already and Mari just woke up from her not needed sleep and stretched her muscles. Today was the big day. People got put into teams and the teams stick until you graduate. Mari went into the locker room and materialized her axe and axe sharpener, and was pretending to sharpen her weapon as people came in the locker room. Nobody really noticed Mari sitting there, and just walked past her. A boy came up to her with a couple of his friends. Mari looked up to face them.
