Elysia had a fun, and relatively easy, trip, except for the one time she nearly ran out of batteries...  But anyways, she was dropped off at the park by her friends, Christopher and Emily, who drove off after a mildly drawn-out goodbye scene.

She walked into the park, taking note of the number of people already here, some seemingly innocuous, like the one eating a picnic, others obviously watching or waiting.  She wanders over to the vicinity of the Willow Tree, finding a nice, shady spot with a good view under a nearby tree, observing the other people, listening to what she could hear.  [color=00BFFF]"Hmm, it's obvious that we are waiting for the school, but what exactly are we waiting for? And why here?  This spot certainly doesn't LOOK like a school..."[/color] Elysia says, out loud but to nobody in particular. She then takes out a centimeter and a half thick cable with an odd connector on one end, and plugs it into a matching port on her neck, the other end of the cable disappearing into her backpack somewhere.  After this is complete, she sighs and relaxes, and takes out a scientific journal on Physics, alternating between reading it and observing her surroundings.

The plugging in bit would have been visible to anyone who bothered to look in her direction during the process.
