[Y/n]'s P.O.V.

[Y/n]...

[Y/n]-chan, it's time to wake up...

__________________________________________________

It was the usual morning as always, the house is silent 'Ryuya, is probably at work right now.' I thought as I got out of bed and made myself some breakfast. When I looked out the window I saw lots of snow 'I wonder is Onee-chan is looking out her window right now? Maybe I should visit her after taking the exams.' I thought as I cleaned up my plate and got dressed in warm clothing and carrying my [F/c] umbrella. As I was heading out I checked my watch to see the time to make it to the exams in time, '*sigh* I still got time to make it.' I thought, until there was a tug on my long winter jacket. I then looked down to see a young girl with tears in the corner of her eyes clutching onto my jacket. "Is there something that you need?" I asked narrowing my eyes at her, which made her tremble a bit and let go "I-I can't f-find my M-Mommy." she sobbed out with tears now running down her cheeks.

All I did was just look at her for a few more seconds, till I decided to grab her hand and drag her off, surprising her in the process. "W-what are y-you doing?" she asked, looking up at me in confusion "We're going to go look for your mother." I said to her, as I was still dragging her off. To then come face to face with a peculiar girl with orange-red hair and golden-green eyes, who stared at me in awe, with a woman behind her with a concerned look on her face. "Mommy!" the little girl yelled out, letting go of my hand and ran into the woman's arms, hugging tightly. "I thought I would never see you again." the mother cried to her, as I decided to just hand the girl my umbrella and walk away to the school Hyuga mentioned on the  fridge "Thank you, Onee-chan!" the little girl yelled to me, as I kept walking.

When I finally made it to the gates of the academy, the girl from before came following me to the gate breathless. As we both made it to the gates, we were both stopped by the guards there "Halt, you can't go in." one of them said to us. "What?" me and the girl said in unison in different tones and expressions at the guards. "Please, sir! I really need to take this exam!" the girl pleads to him. "Forget it. No one's allowed in after the time!" the guard told her with a annoyed expression, who also shoved her to the ground "Please let us in to take the damn exam! It's our only way into Saotome Academy." I yelled at them with a more irritated look, which made them look at me. "Wait a second are you by any chance Sohma, [Y/n]?" the second guard asked me "What of it?" I asked them. "Then hurry up and take the exams. Hyuga-san, is expecting you to take them." the first one said. "Tch! I'm not taking that exam if she can't." I said pointing to the girl next to me.

They looked at each other "We wish we could, but it's already past the time." the first one said to me, it was then an umbrella went over the girl's head. I looked to then see a man with red hair looking at her with a smile, while holding the umbrella above her shielding her from the snow. "Are you okay? I wouldn't want you to get a cold" he said her, to then hold out his hand to help her up "Who are you?" the guard asked him. "I'm an applicant." the red head responded to them. "Look, she's begging you, and the other girl is trying to get her in. why don't you let her apply?" he then asked the guards with a nervous smile on his face. "I know she's late, but there are still thirty minutes until the exams." I said, narrowing my eyes at them "No. Late is late." the guard said, much to our displeasure. "She isn't suited to become a student of Saotome Academy if she can't even be on time." the guard finished, 'Is he serious, even I was late.' I thought deadpanning at the guard.

We then thought of coming up with a reason till someone said "Wouldn't it depend on her reason for being late?" we then turned to see a man with strawberry blonde hair in a white winter coat, coming out of a black limo. "That lady was late.." he paused, to then have us get a good look at him "because she was helping the mother find her own child, with the help of this young lady with blue hair." he said with grin. "I would have given you both a ride in my car if I had known you were both applicants of Saotome Academy." he said as he walked towards us "That girl lost her umbrella, right?" he then said, to have pull out my [F/c] umbrella I used to have. "Don't worry. I bought her a one. She seems to like the new one." he said with a smile on his face, though I can tell that there is something he's hiding in his sky blue eyes, and it seems that there's also a hint of sadness in them too. "Don't you think a student who would abandon a lost child in the snow is far less suited to becoming a student  of Saotome academy?" he then asked the guards.
