I snuck back into Beacon. I had spent all night looking for Neo. Still no luck. I walked in to see a orange haired girl standing above a guy would was still asleep. She was the only one awake. That is until...

???: Wake up, lazy butt!

Everyone groaned and started getting up. I walked to my area next to Blake to see her reading. In the background I could hear singing.

???: It's morning! It's morning! It's morning! It's morning!

I sighed and looked back to see Blake looking at me.

Me: Morning Blake.

Blake: Morning ...

I am such an idiot. I forgot to give her my name.

Me: I am such an idiot. It's Y/n.

Blake nodded and went back to her book. I walked to the bathrooms to see the girl again while the guy was brushing his teeth.

???: I can't believe we've been at Beacon for a full twenty-four hours! Not that I thought we'd get kicked out or anything, I mean, you're the perfect student and I'm... well, I'm me! But it's just crazy, you know?

I ignored them and brushed my teeth. I went to find the cafeteria passing by the ballroom where the two were.

???: We've been friends for soooooooo long! What are the odds we'd still be together? Well, not "together-together..." Not that I'm not saying that you're not handsome; you are handsome, but that'd just be weird, right?

I walked past the ballroom and went to the cafeteria. I walked to the area to see that there were some people making food. I ordered some fruit and a couple pancakes and sat down at a random table. Soon I could hear the girl again.

???: (muffled through her food) Right! What was I thinking? But still, I hope we end up on the same team together! (slurps up the rest of her pancake) Oohhhh! We should come up with some sort of plan, to make sure we end up on the same team together! What if we bribe the headmaster? No, that won't work. He has the school.

I chuckled. She kept talking to the guy who sat there quietly. Soon I finished eating and walked to my locker. I don't own anything in it but I might as well practice my combination for it. Soon those two came back. The girl still talking.

???: I know! We'll have some sort of signal! Like a distress signal! (gasps) A secret signal so we can find each other in the forest! Can you imitate a sloth?

???: (finally replying) Nora?

Nora: Yes, Ren?

Ren: (sheathing his weapons in his sleeves) I don't think sloths make a lot of noise.

Nora: (thinks about this for a moment) That's why it's perfect! No one will suspect we're working together!

Ren: (smiling and shutting his locker) Come on Nora, let's go.

Nora: Not "together-together..." (giggles)

Ren headed out while a skipping Nora followed, passing Ruby and Yang as they were busy readying themselves. I walked to them.
