Enzo let out a small, awkward sound of disapproval at Rukuyo's words. On the other hand, Kenji couldn't agree more.
"I concur. People need to stop being weak, especially when they have the means to become stronger." The fox added in, just after him. By now. nearly all of the students had gathered, and the rest would catch up later, unless they were already in the crowd.
The middle-aged man cleared his throat after a few moments. "Greetings, aspiring wizards. I am Headmaster Boone, and I will be giving you a short tour of the school and campus before the day is over. A lot of you are probably eager to get out of the sun, so follow me inside, will you?" Following with his commands, the horde of students flowed nicely behind him as he entered the front doors of the main school building. As soon as Enzo walked through, he was instantly chilled. One moment ago, he was standing in the heat and slightly sweating, now he felt as if it were a normal day out, without the oppressive sun. "Man, I can get used to this.." Enzo muttered.
With the masses of people inside, they were able to check out what the school looked like from the inside. They were standing in the lobby, which was nothing more than a big space in the middle, with large, grand stairs on the opposite end of the room. On the ground, was the large, 'S' symbol which obviously resembled Sorcerers. On the walls were bulletins after bulletins full of stamped paper. Enzo narrowed his eyes to increase focus. Apparently, they were job requests, taken by teams of students to complete. To their left was a glass wall supporting a StarBucks sign, along with some fast-food signs. Beyond the glass were tables and rows of chairs. It was obvious to assume that was the cafeteria.
Boone stopped in the middle of the room, and turned to face the glob of students. "This is the lobby. The hub of the entire school, from here, you can access places like the first floor classrooms, the cafeteria, the training room and the second floor. There is also a library here, beside the cafeteria. That's where you will be getting most of your books from."
He began walking again, the group following in tow. They moved out of the lobby and down a hallway that was connected to it. They could see the campus from the windows. The grass was spacious, and well groomed. There was even a garden out there.
The group emerged through a set of doors, then ended up in what looked like a basketball court. Again, Boone positioned himself somewhere reasonable and began explaining. "As you can see, this is the gym. It doesn't look like a real gym now - we just finished a basketball tournament. Yes, we have a basketball team. Anyway, this is the end of the first floor. Behind this building is the track and other sport fields." Some excited whispers were being exchanged between students, but Enzo stayed quiet. He wasn't good at sports to begin with.
The rest of the tour was rather uneventful, having not actually explored downstairs or upstairs, though it did take them back outside, and into another building just beside the main school. "This is the dormitory. If you live in another part of the country, or just want to stay close to the school, this is where you will be staying. Now, there is a rule: The entire left side of the school is for males only, and the right side is for the females. We have a strict rule against trespassing, so if you have some urge to see your soul-mate, think twice, and wait until you are both outside." The headmaster paused, and reached into his right pocket where he took out a small cloth to wipe his face off with before putting it back in. "This concludes today's tour. Tomorrow, we will go over class-sorting, so be sure to report to the lobby area at 8AM sharp. It's very important."
The aging man took a bow, and left the dormitory. That's when the group of students began peeling off to find their own dorms. It was stated previously that before they arrived at Sorcerers, that they'd have to decide whether or not they' want a dorm. Enzo went ahead and said yes. (By his own will, i'm sure) To those that had agreed to take a dorm, they would have a card with a number on it. This card unlocked the dorm, much like modern hotels do. Enzo began walking , making a left at the hallway and heading to the stairs.
On the way, he pulled out his card, which he kept in his pocket.
"D6." He read out loud. Later on, he found out that his dorm was on the third floor. He approached it, and slid his card through the reader on the wall, next to the door.
"Welcome, Enzo Ferrari." A robotic male voice called out, before an unlocking sound was heard in the door. He pushed it open, slowly making his way in as if there a surprise waiting for him. It was clean, and had multiple rooms. An easily accessible bathroom, closet, study room and bedroom.
Kenji yawned, hopping off Enzo's shoulder and onto the desk near his bed, while Enzo himself slung off his backpack and dropped it on the floor, making a heavy thud on the ground. He fell backwards onto his new, comfy bed and looked up to the ceiling.
"Well, this is it~" He said. "Just you and me, Kenji. Living off on our own in the dangerous world." "-Yeah whatever." The fox replied sharply. Enzo looked over to see Kenji had taken his laptop out of his backpack and was already charging it. The fox was clearly going to use it.
