She would have requested a male uniform for the leg coverage; Having a bit of a dislike for the female uniform's leg exposure, but school dress code policies kept her from doing so. She'd have to put up with the breeze making her legs cold, though that should've probably been the least of her worries. Looking at herself in the mirror, Mari nodded in approval of her handiwork. She'd leave a good impression showing up like this, for sure! And it only stole hours of her life to do so! Worth exchanging out some sleep, certainly. Though, as she walked out of the small bathroom, she stumbled a bit; Honesty tired. The girl was running on around three hours of sleep, but managed to function. She'd just need to go get something to wake her up before the ceremony. She gripped the handle of her small suitcase, lifting it and carrying it along with her as she stepped out of her small rented room. She had needed a place to stay while working on entering the Ranger School, as her parents and her brother had to sail back towards Orre to continue their work. The owner was nice enough to discount her costs since she was working hard towards a good cause for the world and herself, and she'd grown a bit fond of the place. Shame she was leaving. Down the stairs she went, noticing the owner at the front desk of the inn. The man turned his head and offered a smile with his greeting: [b]"Good morning!"[/b] He said, a warm smile on his face. [b]"Expected you out here sooner, that hyper boy that passed his exams already dashed out to the entrance ceremony."[/b][/color] [color=Crimson][b]"D-Did he?"[/b][/color] [color=gray]Mari stuttered, blinking. She wasn't going to be late, was she? That boy had a room right next to her's, and he was loud. Sounds of hammering and metal tinkering came from within, getting him a few complaints. Though he apologized, she figured a few people in the Inn were glad to see him leave. She hoped that noise wouldn't continue to bother her in the Ranger School. [b]"Indeed. Sputtered out another apology for the noise he'd been making as he dashed out the door."[/b] He answered, amused.[/color] [color=Crimson][b]"I suppose that means I better be going, too. I don't want to be late."[/b][/color] [color=gray]Mari pointed out, dropping her room key and heading towards the door. She stopped at the door and turned her head, offering a smile to the man at the desk.[/color] [color=Crimson][b]"Thank you for everything!"[/b][/color] [color=gray]She exclaimed, getting a wave as a response as she exited the inn, heading towards the school. Mari proceeded to head towards the ceremony; Keeping a fair pace though she wasn't running. She kept to a good schedule, and as planned she arrived on time to flock around with the rest of the green-jackets. She glanced around curiously, her eyes catching view of a girl who was... Still scarfing down breakfast?! She was getting crumbs all over her jacket! Mari found herself a bit irritated by this, but refrained from saying anything. She quickly looked away as to not catch the girl's attention. As the speech began, Mari stood at attention and focused closely. The principal knew how to get people's attention, for sure, as Mari herself was completely hooked by his words. Her chances of being a hero started here; Going around, helping people and Pokemon... Her eyes almost sparkled behind her glasses as the passion seeped into her brain, almost throwing her into a daydream. Thankfully the next speaker brought her back to reality; Making Mari unsure if she had just dozed off momentarily or what. The speech ended shortly after, marking that she could go check what class she was in. Her first day...! She'd been waiting for this, and had no intentions of backing out now! She went inside to inspect the board and figure out what class she was in, though noticed one person dashing ahead of everyone else. Judging by the uniform, it was a boy. By the time she got inside, he was already nowhere to be seen. Someone else that was in front of her was already there, though. Wait...[/color] [color=aqua][b]"Classroom 1-A, huh..."[/b][/color] [color=gray]It was toast-girl from earlier, checking her class at the board. Mari stood back, observing the board from a short distance. her eyes scrolled down the list in search of her own class; Marina Davis, Classroom.... 1-A. She nodded to herself, accepting this fact. She was a bit curious to see how Ms. Toast Crumbs did on her first day, as there couldn't be many judgement's really until then. She smiled as she began to walk away, in search of Classroom 1-A. There was surely a map of the school nearby.[/color][hr] [hr] [center][h1][sub][color=Black][b]F R E D R I C K M O R R I N[/b][/color][/sub][/h1][/center] [center][color=Crimson][sub][url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jkZkZmneg_c]Disgaea: Hour of Darkness ~ You Go, Girl![/url][/sub][/color][/center][hr][hr] [color=black][b][b]"Aaaaahhh! I'm gonna be late!"[/b][/b][/color] [color=gray]Fredrick, in a panic, was cramming his belongings into a bag. The boy had rented out a room in an inn in Vientown, but had caused a few problems while he was around. He stayed up tinkering with design concepts, being loud, disturbing others. He'd almost gotten forced out! Thankfully for him, the time for the entrance ceremony came around before he'd been booted out of the room; So he could just get out of here and head to the Ranger School to start out his new life! As he rushed out the door to his room, slamming it closed and running along. He darted down the stairs, noticing the man at the front desk probably had a few things to say, but Fredrick had no time for it! He dropped the key as he ran by, and shouted out an apology:[/color] [color=black][b][b]"No time for stopping sorry for disturbing your customers have a good day bye!"[/b][/b][/color] [color=gray]Once outside, he made a mad dash for the ceremony, worried that he wouldn't be on time. He panicked as a few scraps fell out of his bag here and there, causing him to stop to gather them up. It delayed his arrival a little, but thank goodness, the ceremony hadn't even started! The boy sank into the crowd of green jackets, shaking with excitement. He still couldn't believe he'd gotten accepted; This would be so cool! Learning how to help Pokemon, while also being able to learn the mechanics behind the Styler... The thought of that alone was enough to make the boy drool a bit, but he quickly wiped it away. He was a bit anxious as the ceremony went on, but did listen. The principal sure built up hype, for this one boy, at least! He was terribly excited to start his first day, knowing the exams to get in were kind of tough, and that what came next would be even tougher! It was a little concerning, but whatever, he could make it! When the woman spoke next pointing out they needed to check their classrooms, he nodded and eyed the school. As everyone was dismissed. he dashed inside quickly after the crowd began separating. He was the first one inside, and he practically planted his face against the board in search of his name. Morrin... Morrin... Morrin... He slowly leaned farther and farther down as he searched for his name. There it was! Fredrick Morrin, Classroom A-1![/color] [color=black][b][b]"Aah-Hah!"[/b][/b][/color] [color=gray]The boy exclaimed, turning on his heel and dashing off again. Classroom A-1! He'd find it, and get started right away! He had zero idea where it was, or where he was going, but that wouldn't stop him! March ever-forward, for the sake of People and Pokemon! That's what a real Ranger would do, and so it's what he'd do, too! Things were a bit confusing, however... He had no idea where he was actually going. If he was lucky he'd possibly find the right classroom before that bell rang. It was like a challenge! A challenge he would succeed in as a first step of becoming a brilliant Mechanic![/color]
