Their session was dismissed after the big announcement and the team was given the rest of the afternoon off to do whatever they wanted. Everyone was happy that they wouldn't need to take their intelligence training or even their physical training for the remainder of the month until the start of the mission. But they were also hit with a sense of melancholy as it all sunk in for them. They had been continuously following the same schedule all their lives and it was all they knew. Now they didn't know what else to do with their time, not that they didn't have any other options. They remained in the classroom after Instructor Violet left the room. They talked about the possibilities. 

Many of them hadn't visited the ocean in a while, if even at all. They had an entire month to take camping trips to the mountains or to the beach. There was also a lake near the mountains that they could go to. They decided that they would do it all since they had a month to themselves. Roseanne had also mentioned that the fifth floor dorms were abandoned and that she heard from other kids and the instructors that it was haunted. She told the others she wanted to spend the night there and see if they could spot some ghost activity. Raven had been most excited about it, since ghost stories were all people told back in his province. It was told that ghost were very active in the mines and the rest of the province because of all the people who had perished in mine collapses.

After everyone agreed that they would do all activities together, they dispersed and went to their rooms. It was only Monday and they had the rest of the week off to do what they wanted. Roseanne had washed her first set of clothes--she had two sets, one for one week and the other to alternate on the following week. With all her newfound extra time, she decided that she would get her second set of laundry out of the way. She grabbed her basket in her room and left Scarlet there. Her room mate was listening to music and reading a book on fighting techniques. 

As she made her way down the hall, she saw two people turn the corner into her group's dorm hallway. They were a boy and a girl. The girl had straight white hair past her shoulders and white irises. Her learning uniform was all white and Roseanne couldn't help but wonder how she kept it so clean. It frustrated her how she was so clumsy sometimes and dropped either her drink or some food on her uniform during meals. Raven always made it a point to jokingly point out that she was super clumsy. By which she would reply by blowing a raspberry at him. The boy beside her had on a brown uniform, and had brown hair with brown eyes. His skin was also a dark brown that almost matched with the color of his eyes. Both of them were pretty, and both of them appeared to be very young, though no younger than Honey.

They were probably around Raven, Ciel, and Seville's age. Maybe a bit younger by the looks of them. When they looked up with their deer in headlights look, they frantically started to wave Roseanne down when they spotted her as the only other person in that hallway.

"Hey! Excuse me." The boy called, and then took a jog towards her as though afraid that she would either leave or suddenly disappear. The hallways in the dorms were strange, more like mazes. There were also three ways to get into the older crew dorms. One was a direct door, after leaving the cafeteria building and walking down a set of concrete steps. Then there was an entrance right after leaving the library building. And last there was the more maze like entrance, by going through the kids dorms which were located on the top floors of the cafeteria building. That was the way they seemed to come from. Roseanne set her laundry basket on the floor and offered them a polite, yet guarded smile. Maybe they were searching for their dorms, but she wasn't entirely sure she would be able to help them. Still, she would try. "I was wondering if you could tell me where we could find the 12191 dorms." As he finished, her eyebrows furrowed into a look of confusion.
