West was rather disinterested in the presentation given earlier. He took in the names of the teachers and their respective specialties. They were impressive, but West planned on being better than all of them. He hoped he would get a team that was skilled as well, or at least worked hard. He clapped with the rest out of the respect he had for the teachers. 

He left with the rest of the students after the assembly, weaving his way through the masses. As it emptied into the hall, the masses dispersed and it became easier to move. He decided to head to the cafeteria and wait for this party. There were a lot of interesting students going to and fro. Some looked quite a bit stronger than others. Ponderings about what his team would be like raced through his head. 

Soon food was being served and West helped himself. More students were beginning to pour into the cafeteria. He began to wonder what this night in the ballroom would be like as well.
