The library was quiet.

That was an understatement, of course it was quiet. It's a library! However, the hallways were packed with students of varying ages going to and fro. There was chatter and excitement, some murmurs of rumors, some nervousness and two particular individuals making out as they walked. How the heck did they achieve that feat?

Serenity sat at one of the desks, a book in front of her. She wasn't studying. She wasn't researching. She was reading. That's all there was to it. She enjoyed reading. While others enjoyed the training sessions or tactical classes, she liked to read. Sue her, it's what she wanted to do. However she knew that she was supposed to be somewhere else. As a Guardian, she was to be called for on missions. Top notch missions that normal students didn't go on. These missions were big help for the war efforts and super important.

But damn this book was good!

Serenity gave a sigh as she saw a few other Guardians walk towards the notice board where the missions were posted. She wasn't putting off the inevitable, she wanted to go out on missions, to show off her skills, and to prove herself to her classmates who more or less classified her as either a bookwork brown-noser or the class clown ditz. Was school always like this? She had a few individuals she liked and talked to. Jack being one. She studied with him often and he was always nice to her. He was also pretty cute.

What? You'd have to be blind not to notice that!

Serenity quickly gathered her things and made a beeline for the board.

As Serenity neared the board, she saw a few other people at it. She recognized them as other Guardians in her classes. She stepped forward, thinking of talking to them, but she decided against it. She'd rather pick her mission and prepare herself for it. There would be time for talking on the way over.

She saw a few missions she liked, but one in particular stood out. Nexus Reactor? It sounded interesting, definitely important. She quickly signed up for it. She received a message conforming it and also the detailed roster of who would be joining her. She recognized the names, but didn't know who they were for the most part.

As others around her conversed with each other, she felt out of place. This was always the case, it seemed. She liked to joke around and have fun, but most of her friends weren't Guardians.

Instead she stood off to the side and waited until it was time to go. Perhaps someone would come up and say hi, but she doubted it.

[hider=Summary]Serenity was at the library reading, and then walked over to the board, signed up for her mission, and then stood in the corner. Yep.[/hider]
