That was probably the longest bus ride in my life Kevin thought as he finally managed to catch a view of the MMA Academy. He was used to traveling... just not to places so far from civilization. Back in New York, civilization was everywhere and it the term concrete jungle had always lived up to its reputation. Just like the rest of his classmates, Kevin had spent the time on the bus, slouched in his chair, eyes focused on his phone with his dark Beats headphones to drown out any noise. Sleep came here and there during the ride but it was hard being still for so long, especially with all these rival students around him. 

When they finally got of the bus, Kevin silenced his music placing his head phones around his neck and his phone is his pocket... last thing he needed was to be that guy that stood out or that guy who didn't get the incoming instructions. Anticipation and the itch of competition built up in his stomach, he couldn't way to get started.
