Celeste got out of the bathroom, towel in hand, as she tried to dry her slightly damp hair. The flat screen television illuminated her dark room, as the weather reporter delivered the weather forecast. It seems that rain was going to continue to fall for the next few days. She walked over to her closet, taking out fresh new clothes for her to wear on the first day of school. She made sure to take out a jacket, in case it got too cold. Being a transfer student last year, this was going to be her second year in Satoru high school. She just wanted to keep a low profile and graduate in peace.
Celeste placed the neatly folded clothes on top of the chair by her study table. She walked back to the bathroom and hung her towel on one of the towel bars before walking back to her room and getting to bed. She shifted slightly as she tried to make herself comfortable. Her eyes were on the TV, as the news reporter talked about the recent disappearances that took place. She took the remote control from her bed stand and switched it off once they mentioned that it might have been related to some cult activity. Most news were exaggerated, trying to make things more interesting to get the viewer's attention.
The city lights gave her room a bit of light, as it shone through her window. She had moved to a new condominium a few days back because it was closer to school, as opposed to her house, which was located by the seaside. Her room was at the seventeenth floor, giving her a good view of the city. She rolled over to her side and stared at the droplets of rain that ran down her window pane, as she tried to do a mental check on what she forgot to prepare for the next day. Her notebooks, books, and other school supplies were ready, so she could get an extra 5 minutes of sleep tomorrow morning. Considering that she lives close to her school now, there was no need for her to rush.
She hoped for a good year, mainly her getting high grades and giving a good performance in everything she did. Making friends was out of the picture. She had always been a lone wolf, and she had hoped to keep it that way. She closed her eyes shut as she listened to the downfall of rain. The series of events that have happened in the past few years crossed her mind, making her feel a bit empty on the inside. She put the thoughts aside and focused on getting some sleep. After a few minutes of peace, sleep slowly took over.

edit: er you should change that "Fresh Air" sentence.. it doesn't matter, but if she can tell from synthetically built fresh air and natural cooL!
She controls air/wind after all. And as described in previous posts, her sense of smell is sharp, just like her sense of hearing. She can just easily tell apart the natural and artificial air
Aeria paused for a moment. "Fine. But we only get to ask an equal amount of questions." She cocked an eyebrow, urging him to agree. When Leon made the statement about mutants not being able to resist him and all his glory, she just shook her head with a smile, knowing that even if she countered that, he would just counter back. She was pretty tired at the moment too. "If I'm an ant and you're sugar, I suppose I'm suppose to steal you away, aren't I?" He said, his usual smile back on his face. That was a relief, but at the same time, she would have to put up with his endless jokes. "If you put it that way, then it applies to Tollank too." She smirked.
Leon stood up and offered her a hand, and she remembered that he did the exact same thing when they were on the train. It must have been a habit, she thought. She took his hand, and was about to pull it away once she was up, but he just dragged her with him. Again, just like he did on their way to Hjem. She sighed in defeat. His hold on her was firm, so putting up a fight would be useless right now. She shouldn't be stubborn for once, at least not while she was tired.
She began to wonder where Leon got all of his energy from. They basically had no rest for the past few days. First, they were made to believe that they were being taken away from their families, when in reality, their families let them go to give them a better future ahead of them, or so they had hoped. Though, her father probably let her go to get rid of her. Next, they were being transported from the old ship to this new one. And after that, they had to take the train to their respective districts. She was worn down, and the idea of getting under a warm, soft, blanket sounded good right now.
Once they got out of the metallic door, Leon paused and turned to face the door. He placed a hand up, and the metallic floor rose from the ground and over the door, securing it behind. She looked at him questioningly, "I can explain," He started out carefully, as if he was trying not to scare her. "The reason I looked so... terrified when I was coming over was because... well... the guy from earlier was standing behind you. I could see his outline and I think he was letting me see him. I didn't say anything because I didn't want to freak you out..." She just stared at him blankly, as her mind processed his words. The possibility of it being a ghost crossed her mind, and it sent a shiver down her spine. She would never admit that she was scared of ghosts. They didn't exist after all, right?
Her face paled, but she tried to look as calm as she could. "Hah.. Oh please. That doesn't scare me at all." She said in confidence, but her voice quivered a little in the end, betraying that confidence. She cleared her throat and turned away. She took a few steps ahead of Leon, taking a deep breath and noticing that the air around here wasn't as fresh as it had been inside the underground park. She glanced behind her quickly, checking to see if Leon was following behind her, before continuing to walk off.
She walked at a slow pace, not wanting to widen the gap between her and Leon too much. As much as she hated to admit it, it got into her. She didn't care if it was a mutant, in fact, that would be completely fine with her. A creepy, stalking, mutant would be much better than a creeping ghost who liked to linger close to her, while letting Leon be aware of it's presence. Nope, definitely not a ghost. She chanted repeatedly inside her head to reassure herself.
