Stella's bright silvery blue eyes were darting around, absorbing every detail of the scenery outside the window of the train. She was so absorbed in what she saw, she had stopped listening to the magical talking letter, much to his annoyance.
"Miss Carlevaro, please listen!" the letter said, exasperatedly.
"Sorry! I'm just so excited! When I was with the circus, we never went by train, since we had our wagons. So, this is the first time I've ever been on a train before!" Stella told him, beaming her trademark smile.
"W-well, please try to listen." the letter told her. Her smile working on even nonliving things, like the Acceptance Letter, not that Stella could tell.
"I really am sorry, Mr. Letter! I'll try to listen now." she said, still smiling.
"Alright, then. Since you didn't take the time to read me, I must tell you that you are only a provisional student."
"Aw, really?" she asked, looking disappointed.
"Yes, really. You'll be there for thirteen days, where you'll be graded on attendance, classwork, homework, and the like. On the last day, your compatibility with the school will be determined by the Scale of Judgement. Any questions?"
"No, Mr. Letter!" she chirped, before turning her attention back to the outside scenery.
The letter simply sighed and watched the girl's eyes and smile widen with wonder. He jumped when she squealed at the trains whistle. Clutching her bags, she jumped up and stepped off the train, oblivious to the obvious stares of other people at the station. The letter sighed once again and followed her.
The blue-haired rested his head on his hand, staring absentmindedly out the window. He didn't bother paying attention to the lesson; if he had any trouble, he could ask his roommate, Elias for his notes.
Sighing, he rubbed the patch over his left eye. He had been so lost in his own world that he hadn't realized the for the end of the class had just rung. He was snapped back to reality Elias.
"Hey, Yukiya, I'm going to head down to the library. I'll see you in the dorms." his golden haired friend said.
Yukiya nodded in acknowledgement and Elias turned and left. Only after most of the class left, did he himself leave. He went straight to his favorite spot of solitude. Looking off into the distance, he wondered if he would ever find the solution to his predicament.
