I walked out of my dorm room dressed and ready for breakfast. As I walked down the hall spotted a line of girls waiting to use the bathroom.

"Hurry it up in there Sissy! Other people need to take showers too!" I small girl with two red pigtails said.

A girl emerged from the bathroom, steam flowing out from behind her. The girl had straight black hair, a pink robe, and pink bunny slippers. I let out a laugh when I saw her choice of footwear.

She whirled around to look at me, "Something funny to you?"

"Yeah, nice shoes. "

She looked down at her feet and red streaked across her face. "You better watch it, newbie." She said stomping away.

'Newbie?' I shook my head and laughed again and headed down to the cafeteria for a well-deserved breakfast.

After I got my food I looked for a place to sit. The first person, or person's hair I should say, I saw was Odd. I walked over to their table.

"Hey, Anna!" Odd said, he had syrup on his face from his breakfast.

I laughed, "Hi guys. May I sit with you?"

"Sure," Ulrich said pulling out the seat next to him.

I smiled and sat down, eager to dig into my food. "So Anna," Jeremie said sitting next to Odd and interrupting my first bite of food."How do you like Kadic Academy so far?"

"It's nice and all but I don't like being surrounded by 'girly girls' and 'divas' all the time," I said picking at the sausage and eggs on my plate.

"I know how you feel," Yumi said sitting next to me.

As I was about to take a bit I looked over to find Odd looking at me. He glanced at me then at my plate.

"You wish Della-Robia," I said shoving my fork into my mouth.

"Ah, well if it isn't my favorite group of troublemakers. Ishiyama, Stern, Belpois, and Della-Robia. I see you've inducted Anna into your little group. Well, try to stay out of trouble you five." Jim said passing by our table. Each of us looked at one another confused by what he meant by 'troublemakers'.

After I finished all of my classes for the day I made my way into the gym. Thankfully it was empty. I set down my bag and pulled out my pointe shoes I slipped them on over my pink tights and tied the ribbon around my ankle. I started the music on my portable radio and did my warm-up routine.

After I was warmed up I put on another song and practiced my dance. Ever since I was little I loved to dance, it's just part of who I am. Ballet wasn't exactly my favorite but I enjoyed it nevertheless. I completed the dance with and made a note to fix the parts I had messed up on. The music ended, I bowed and I heard clapping. I looked over towards the door, Jim and Ulrich were clapping.

I blushed and walked over, "I'm sorry. I thought I could practice in here. I'll go now." I said bowing my head.

Jim laughed, "It's fine. Pencak Silat practice doesn't begin until 8:00. It's only 7:30. You had every right to use the open space to practice. Say, did you come up with that routine yourself?" I nodded. "Ah, I remember when I was a professional dancer. I was good too."

"You were a professional dancer." Ulrich and I asked in unison.

"Well uhm-yeah, but I'd rather not talk about it. Anyways, I'll be right back I have to go get the mats from the field." Jim left the gym leaving Ulrich and I standing there awkwardly.

"You're really good Anna. Can I see it again? From the beginning I mean. If-if you want to I mean..." He trailed off.

I smiled, "Sure." I walked to the middle of the gym and started the music. I redid the dance not missing a beat, I finished and bowed to Ulrich.

He clapped again smiling brightly at me. I packed up my things replaced my pointe shoes for my regular shoes and headed towards the door.

"Bye Ulrich see y-" I tripped over one of the mats Jim had brought in. I fell forwards and Ulrich caught me. He helped me back up and I couldn't bear to look him in the eye. "Bye." I almost whispered.

"Bye..." He said equally as quiet.

I hurried to my dorm room, my heart racing. I sat on my replaying what had just happened. After a while, I got up and put on my red robe with green and purple Polk-a-dots on it and headed to the showers. It was 8:45 so it was void of anyone else. I took a hot shower and my thoughts wandered back to what had happened earlier.

I finished my shower and headed to my room, I dressed in my pajamas: a red nightgown with red socks, and lay in my bed trying to force myself to not think anymore. I brushed it off as a friendly gesture and attempted to lull myself to sleep.
