Well, that was weird... As in this school is so strange, I'm not sure if this is a dream or not weird. Anyway, I guess I had better get used to it. Judging by the level of calm the others displayed, this crap happens all the time. For now, one step at a time, and the step that I'm taking right now is...

Phys Ed.

Gulp.

I had better drag myself over to my locker if I want to get into the changeroom , then... I consider jogging, but I don't want to use up any unnecessary energy. Hmm... The best way then would to get someone to carry me... I bet Stahl cou--

Woooaaah there, Becca. Hold on. He's...probably not even interested. At all.

I need my caffeine. Instead, I get my gym uniform out of the top shelf of my locker, not bothering to even try to keep it in the nicely folded pile.

I step into the changing room; like the rest of the school, it's pretty nice... Other scools that I've been to have rusty, creaky minilockers, benches with arcane gum carpeting the bottoms, and one tiny water fountain that just sort of lets the water trickle down the metal nozzle. Ylisse's though... The lockers are a beautiful, full shade of navy, shining as if they'd just been painted. Girls buzz through the halls made by walls of lockers and the occasional changing stall for the reaaallly shy. A water fountain sits by the ends of half of the locker-walls, with the other half taken up by towel bins. Wait... Towel bins?!?!?

I find a nice, relatively empty corner and change quickly. I admit, it's actually a pretty classy uniform... Nice navy shorts, a little above the knee, with white stripes down the sides. The shirt's not too baggy either, and I wear it well, if I may say so myself. The collar has a nice cut, too... Very nice!

I lace my shoes back on, hoping my knotting skill had improved when I wasn't looking. Suddenly, a pair of legs appears in my line of vision. I look up to see Sully, closely followed by Sumia. She's ditched the ice by now, and actually looks pretty good for someone who took a trip like that. Suddenly, I notice another person standing behind Sully, looking as if she was trying to fold her long limbs into a smaller area so she wouldn't be noticed.She was very pretty, with long pink hair held out of her face by a glittery headband, purple eyes, and a graceful feel to her when as she tucked herself behind Sully's frame as if she was afraid. Her clothes don't quite seem to reflect her shy, mouse-like personal demeanor. She's wearing a pure white crop-top that has multiple tiers, reminding me somewhat of a jellyfish. She has on gym shorts like us, but she's carrying a stylish pair of skinny jeans. Her flats are delicate but flexible, in a pretty pale pink shade.

"Hey Becca!" Sully said, grinning down at me.

"Hi, Sully! You okay from before, Sumia?" She nods quickly and a little over-vigorously, her grey hair bouncing.

"I do that all the time, so it isn't anything new. I'll be fine!" So Chrom wasn't joking... Yikes.

"Okay. Hey there! Are you new too?" I say, addressing pretty-in-pink. She shakes her head even harder than Sumia nodded hers.

"N-no... I'm just a demonstrator from a nearby school... Regna Ferox." Even Sully's eyes widened.

"A demonstrator! Well, why didn't you say so when we found you, lost and afraid?"

"Eep! You said you wouldn't mention that!"

"Well, at least I didn't mention your damn good danci--"

"Eee! Stop!" She shrunk away as if she had been hit.

This school...is not average... I clear my throat in an attempt to break up the awkwardness for everyone (except Sully, who doesn't seem to be affected by the notion of awkward).
