The next morning, Lynae had woken up from her bed, looking to her side to see Roxa still sound asleep. The lights were all off, except that of what she assumed to be lamp from the desk on the designated 'Boy Side'.
She got up to see who was there. It was Pleto. From her view, Pleto was writing on paper, both scribbling and erasing rapidly. He turned his head to find Lynae, which caught him off guard. He hurriedly covered his papers before Lynae could get a chance to get a clear view of it.
"Oh, Lynae. Good morning. I didn't know you'd be waking up this early." he said, looking at the desktop clock; '7:37 am' it read.
"What are you doing?" Lynae bluntantly asked.
"Oh, the papers? Ah it's nothing, just some notes to help prepare me for the first official day that's all."
"I see..." Lynae replied, not certain whether his answer was honest or not.
Pleto then cleared his throat, "So, completely off topic, I've been wanting to ask, what exactly is your semblance?"
Lynae was silent for a while. Clearly deep in thought.
"I...don't know my semblance. I haven't quite discovered it yet." she admitted, looking down.
Pleto gave a bit of a surprised expression. "Really? Wow, from what I've seen of you in the forest, I wouldn't expect that. But don't worry, with someone of your caliber, I know you'll find it soon."
"Yeah, thanks...." Lynae trailed off.
"Well, we may still have time before our first class starts, but it wouldn't hurt to get a head start. Want to help me wake the slugabeds up?" Pleto asked.
Lynae gave a nod, as the two went over to their own sides waking up Red and Roxa.
Red groaned reluctant to get up, asking for ten more minutes.
Roxa immediately shot up upon Lynae touching her, it almost caught her by surprise.
When everyone was up, they all got changed into their school uniforms and were ready to head out. Pleto had everyone huddle in front of the door.
"Gonna give a speech, chief?" Red asked.
"Something like that." Pleto replied. "Just some words of encouragement that's all. I've never been a leader at anything so, this is all pretty new to me. But I swear to do the best I can to be the best leader you can ask for, so let's take on this day head on."
Red comedically cheered clapping as if having a standing ovation.
"I have a feeling I'm gonna like this year." Roxa commented.

Rosa got up from her bed, finding everyone already up and ready to go. She quickly looked at the time and saw she only had forty minutes until their first class started, this made her practically jump out of her bed in both panic and rage.
"Why didn't anyone wake me up?!" she demanded quickly running to get her things ready, heading into the bathroom to change.
Saffron just scratched the back of her head, "Yeah....we didn't really want to wake you....we were afraid you'd get mad at us."
"Knowing her, she'd get mad at us no matter what we did." Orin remarked.
"Orin I swear I'm going to kill you!" Rosa shouted from the other side of the door.
Rosa was quiet for a moment making noises of frustration. "Where the hell is my skirt?" she said to herself.
"It fell underneath the sink to your left." Lloyd answered.
