🐈‍⬛ Part 5: A Terrible First Day

♡ Elena's pov:

It was hazy, a white fog surrounded me, I had a hard time trying to see where I was. I decided to just start walking around to see if I could find anything. I found nothing for the first few minutes, just fog everywhere. Then something started to materialize around me, so many colors that I couldn't make out. I was startled at first, I hoped that what I was gonna see was friendly or not harmful to me. Then I found familiar objects that started to appear, chairs, desks, a chalkboard, and much more. I decided to stop and wait to see what was gonna happen, good choice.

Then, I realized it was a classroom, a standard looking one that you could find in any school. One with windows, shelves of books and more. I decided to look out of one of the windows, I could see the sun was slowly sinking from the sky, and the classroom was empty. Looks like it was the end of the day, I decided to look around more to see if there was someone here, and there was. From the position I was in, I saw a figure from the back of the classroom. Then I realized it was a female student, laying her head on the desk. It looked like she was sleeping very peacefully.

She had reddish brown hair with a short braid that hung on the side of her shoulder. She was wearing a primarily navy colored uniform, with white accents on her skirt and collar. She had a big book bag right next to her desk, as I got closer I saw that is had some textbooks and paper binders in it. I also saw some loose pencils and papers in the bag. As I got a closer look at her, I realized she had earphones, it seemed like she was listening to something. I could hear the faintest sound of classical music from them, not very loud though. The only reason I could hear it was cause the room was dead silent. I could not see her face, but she seemed like every other student. Nothing really making her stand out other than her staying at school so late. I wondered, what made a student stay so late after class? Maybe she was tired? Maybe she wanted to take a quick nap before returning home? I could only guess.

Then a loud bell rang through the classroom, she slowly lifted her head up, finally I could get a good look at her face and I saw.....

I woke up with a cold sweat, what was that dream? Why was I dreaming of a student sleeping in a classroom? It seemed so, strange yet so.... familiar. I don't think I should dawdle on it though, it is just a dream. A strange one to be honest, but not one I would mind returning to. Maybe I could finally see her face next time.

I realized I was still wearing my ceremonial robes, the hood is good though so I don't get my hair dusty. When I looked at the boarded up windows, I saw that the sun just started to rise. I decided to see if there was a bathroom in this room. Let me tell you when I found it, I was horrified. It was very stinky and dust was everywhere. I quickly headed down the stairs to the cleaning closet to see if there was something I could do to clean the bathroom, and lucky me there was soap (expired I'm assuming) but still usable. I walked back to my room and started cleaning, dear lord I hope I'll never have to see the state it was in again. I was able to clean everything surprisingly, I decided to see if the water in the dorm still worked, and it did! I was getting very lucky with these encounters, let's hope I could keep it up. I immediately flushed the toilet with soap and it looked, decent, not the dirtiest, but not the cleanest. It worked for now and I was satisfied. I tried the faucet and it also worked, but it was just cold water, better than nothing in my opinion.

I quickly washed my face and wore the clothes Crowley gave me. It was a grey short sleeved shirt with (what I'm assuming) the NRC crest, and long black pants. I folded my robes and put them on the table, then I realized there was something in my pocket, I quickly took the item out of my pocket, it was a dark green hair tie. Kinda weird if you asked me, who randomly has, specifically a dark green hair tie on them? I'm not really gonna question it any more. I quickly tied my hair in a ponytail and headed downstairs again.
