The bus ride went on for hours. Every time Mion tried to talk to the other trainees, they looked away and gave her a dirty look. They zoomed past a dry looking dessert. The bus was taking them to the training facility which was miles away from Frostlana where Mion and her mother are from. Mion sat quietly watching the sky change from early morning to late evening. Mion sighed. The bus seats weren't as comfortable as her father said. The bus went over the most insanely bumpy road and made Mion feel as if she was going to puke. Soon, they came up to a gas station and the husky bus driver spoke. "Alright you have 30 minutes to use the restroom and get something to eat." He says opening the doors. The trainees push past Mion causing her to fall on the bus floor. "Hey! Are you all right?" A voice asked. It sounded female. The voice extended a hand and Mion gratefully took it. "Thanks. "Mion says. "No problem." She said. Mion looked at the girl. She had beautiful amber eyes that Mion was sure could read into your soul if you weren't careful. Her gorgeous brown hair was tied into two buns and a few pieces framed her beautiful face. She wore the same uniform her mother always wore. "Y'know you're the first person to talk to me." Mion says. "Really? Wonder why that is." She says. "Let's go before our times up." The female says. The two girls walk to the station and they enter the bathroom. They quickly finish up and enter the main store. They run up and down the aisles gathering various candies and drinks. They pay for everything thanks to a few dollars loan from their husky bus driver. Mion and her friend were the first two on the bus. The girl sat next to Mion. "So..." she says. "So what?" Mion asks. "What's your name? Mine's Azucena. "The now named female said. "Mion." Mion says. "Mion that's a really cool name! What's your last name? Mine's Koruna. "Azucena says opening the gummy bears she had bought. She held the open package to Mion. "Kochi." Mion replies as she takes a couple of the gummy bears. "We'll be in the same room then. "Azucena says happily. Quickly the bus becomes filled with the other trainees and they continue on their long bus ride. All the while, Mion and Azucena laugh and whisper rumors about the legends of Dragtuon, the facility, and the other trainees.
