[name] was brushing her teeth as her eyes were not fully opened. She was tired from the exhaustion of yesterday's class taking a toll on her mental health, almost being burnt to death by Kage back then.

She kept her balance as the ground beneath her rumbled once more, waking up the stubborn students who were still asleep. [name] really wondered what does the rumble do, do the students' beds get shaken side to side as well?

Who knows, after all, she is the first to wake up most of the time.

She soon was done washing up and had tied her hair up into a ponytail, adjusting her bangs slightly so that it would fall over her forehead and cover her eyes naturally. She then walked out of the bathroom and went to change into her uniform.

Today was the day they would be learning how to fly on a broomstick and officially receive their own broomstick as well. One that they would use for traveling to their destination through the air, as well as for playing broom games.

She looked into the full-length mirror once more, staring at her own reflection. A tug on her heart was felt as she looked straight into her dark blue ocean eyes. Pushing up her lips with her fingers, trying to form a smile.

"[name], are you ready?" Kyojuro spoke from outside her room, and [name]'s attention went to him as she quickly put on her shoes and then she grabbed hold of her gloves that were used for flying, an item that was specifically had to be bought for flying purposes.

She shoved them into the pocket of her coat where her wand was and then ran to the door. Swinging it opened and Kyojuro was standing there with a beaming smile as always. [name] then smiled in response and soon shut her room door.

She then turned and walked in front of Kyojuro, which he then noticed [name] didn't wear her coat properly. He smiled sadly at the little mark that was peeking out from [name]'s neck and he quickly pulled her coat up higher, hiding the mark.

The mark that deemed her to be 'dirty'.

"Thank you," [name] said in her gentle voice and Kyojuro smiled. They soon walked together to the dining hall, and eventually, Kyojuro opened the door for her. She smiled, and soon her smile dropped when she saw how crowded the place was. It was noisy, many were minding their own business.

But there were those who stopped with what they were doing and they looked at [name]. A disgusted look appearing on their faces. [name] then shifted a little uncomfortably, and Kyojuro then grabbed hold of her by the hand and tugged her along, sending a glare towards those who kept giving her the dirty looks.

As if giving them a warning.

"I can't believe she wants to follow the line of a Shadow Wizard,"

"Don't you know she has the mark on her back?"

"You mean THAT mark right?"

And a slam against the table was heard as both Obanai and Sanemi stood up from their seats and glared at the ones who were talking about [name]. They knew about [name] having the mark on her back. Kyojuro had explained the situation, and having the mark made no difference to them as they all truly wanted to befriend [name].
