Ouch. My understanding of time is the absolute worse in this and other books. Don't mind me, I am half asleep almost 99.9% of the time. Maybe I'll be able to understand the concept of time someday.

Just kidding.

Now continue.

The Quad rides the elevator back to the fifth floor quietly, other than to tease C about Parker.

When they get back to their dorm, they notice four small white boxes, sitting on edge of one of the beds.

K walks up to it and sees a note written neatly in black pen perched on top of one of the boxes.

He reads it out loud, "Inside of these boxes is your comms. It will tell you your class schedules and will allow you to communicate remotely to your classmates and roommates."

While he's reading, N opens one of the boxes to see a watch.

She shows the others when T speaks, "A Karrington watch. One of the two most powerful companies in the entire country. They produce most of the technology being used. The CEO is a powerful man who stops at nothing to get what he wants."

She nods, putting it on.

"That watch your holding is one of the newer models. The note said a couple of its features but didn't go more in depth than that. The main feature allows you to communicate through the comm system," T continues, grabbing another one of the boxes.

He unboxed the watch, putting it on as well. The others look at him, watching him configure it as if he has done one too many times before.

He connects it to another watch and clicks a few buttons. Immediately, the four hear ringing. N looks at her wrist and sees that T was calling. She declined and lifts her wrist. 

She smiles, "It works, T. Good job, bud."

T nods, "Thanks."

K finally puts it on and C examines it before asking someone to put it on her wrist.

"It seems to already be configured to everything. It shows our schedules, and it seems like all of ours is exactly alike. Probably because whoever is in charge of the academy doesn't exactly know what to do with us," T mentions. "As if they want the four of us to stick together."

"I mean, I kinda get why, don't you?" K intervenes, "We woke up in the same truck, memory wiped besides the common knowledge that most people know and understand."

"I get why you would be suspicious, T. Being put in the same truck, having the same classes, sleeping in the same dorm room. There's a reason why the Head is keeping us together," N speaks, leaning against the wall, looking at the watch.

"But why?" C questions, jumping into the bed. "Isn't that the question? What was the point in bringing us to the academy? When we clearly showed no abilities from the moment we woke up in the truck? The four of us, who have no relation with each other, whatsoever."

The four were cut off yet again due to a bell chiming, signaling what they could only assume is the start of class. T checks the watch on his wrist to see where the four had to go. He nods his head, signaling his companions to follow him.

They continue to follow T as he follows the map on the watch. As they walk, there are prying eyes that follow the four as they walk towards the classroom.

Whispers can be heard, questions and comments about the four and their basic existence in the school.

"Who are they?"
