"I-" She stopped, about to say that she preferred being alone. It would have been a lie. She was alone out of necessity, not of want. Instead she simply nodded he assent.

Fire smiled, laying a hand on her arm. "Then, let's go" and they were gone. They reappeared in the main hall, where Water was pushing Shakuntala out.

"Ah, good. You can help Kyla then Shakuntala" Fire said cheerfully

Shakuntala blinked, glanced over "uh, sure" she said, going over. "I'll show you the rooms. I'm Shakuntala, but everyone always says that's a mouthful. So Suki is good enough"

"Suki" She mouthed the words, whispering softly. "I'm Kyla, but I guess that Fire already said that."

Kyla realized that she was still holding onto the letter and quickly slipped it back into her pocket. She stood and looked around the main hall for several seconds.

Shakuntala smiled, "this way" she said, walking to the rooms. "First ones mine. You can pick one. There's a robe you have to wear, and some clothes if you need on the bed"

Kyla nodded and picked the room furthest away, entering it and closing the door. She quickly changed into the robe and placed the rest of the clothing into drawers. She returned to the hallway a moment later.

Shakuntala was waiting, "you should eat before the bell rings for classes" she said "we are with water first" she headed back to the hall

Kyla followed Suki back into the main hall. "Is that where you're headed now? To eat?" She was suddenly remind of the fact that she had yet to eat today.

"I've already eaten" Shakuntala said, "but I will still take you there never the less" she gave Kyla a smile

Mathias thanked Spirit again for the piton. " I haven't slept that well in forever." After speaking with the elemental he checked the time. He sat down to get something to eat while he read through his folder.

Erik nodded with a smile. "I'm good thank you." He quickly finished eating and looked over his folder. He scanned it for a few minutes before nodding, adjusting the heavy robe with a grimace. He was use to lighter. He began to walk to where he would train with wind, following the map provided in the folder. His feet moved lightly over the ground. If not for the sound of his robe on the ground, he would have been silently. He arrived at the room and went inside, looking around. He looked around, knowing he was early but not seeing a reason to stay when he had completed all of his necessary morning activities.

Kyla nodded and forced a smile of her own, following Suki with a definite anticipation.

Pakuna followed Erik, merely to guide him off the wrong path, "winds lessons after Waters, Erik"

Shakuntala grabbed another piece of toast, munching on it. "You should eat fast"

Kyla grabbed a plate, filling it quickly with anything that was within reach, finding an empty table and sitting down to eat. The plate was emptied as fast as it was filled and Kyla stood up again and rejoined Suki. "you mentioned classes?"

Shakuntala nodded "yeah. We are learning here, after all" she said, and just then, the bell rang "five minute warning" she said. "Waters class. This way" she said, heading there.

( oops, misread the post about the schedules.)

Erik smiled at his own mistake. "Oops, must have read the folder wrong. I didn't look at it too much." He adjusted his path to head in the right direction, looking at Pakuna," thanks for catching me, I would been quite confused otherwise."

Pakuna shrugged "it's okay" he said, pleased he had been able to help. "The schedules give us time with each element, so I guess we get to learn them all"

Johnny finished his food, trying not to say too much beyond what he may have already said, for fear of his mouth losing control again. After finishing up, he silently walked up to his room, giving Pakuna a mischevious wink as he went to fetch his robe, finally opening it up and looking at it the tired pyromancer decided that it just wouldn't do, frankly speaking, it was too long, and it wasn't very practical, or so Johnny thought, so, taking out his pocketknife, he set to work.

First he cut a hole in the top of the hat, making it a bandana, and put it on his head, fitting it around his forehead, next he looked at the robe itself, it was long and gray, and it vaguely reminded Johnny of what the old men who took care of the boys at the orphanage used to wear, the angry ones who always smelled of cheese, the same one Johnny had sworn to himself that he would never become, so Johnny cut the arms off, and cut it so that it hung less like a robe and more like a trench coat, and then he stood back and admired his work. "Mangificent" he whispered as he dawned his newly-tailored robes, wearing them open and without a shirt, showing his sinewy physique and headed for where the paper said Water's class would be.

As Shakuntala and Kyla walked, they came across Johnny. "That's an interesting way of using the robes" shakuntzla said,"aren't you cold th8ugh? Oh, right, fire boy. Probaoy naturally hot"

that was the first thing Shakuntala wanted to learn with fire training, how to warm a room. She could warm up water, but not a room.

"If you say so" Johnny winked at Suki and Kyla, feeling much more confident in his own skin, now that he had been able to put a little bit of himself into the schools robes, he felt like a businessman wearing a tailored suit, like Iron Man in his armor, he was invincible for a few brief seconds, as he joined the girls, changing his step to match theirs as he did so.

Shakuntala realised what she had said, and how jt coukd be taken two ways. "Uh. Well, I nope for your sake, they don't mind the tailoring" she said. Shakuntala had left her robes then way tney were, but had tied them close to her body with a sash around her waist. She had a way of walking that was fluid, almost as if she were made of water.

"I think its going to be interesting, these classes. Oh, right, I forgot, this I Kyla, Kyla, this is johnny" she said, smiled, then turned to Johnny again, "if you would like, I have some skill in sewing. I an make it so it so the material doesnt tatter, since you cut it pretty roughly, it looks"
