Ramiele did not answer for she had fallen asleep. The rest of the ride to Limbo was uneventful. Once they arrived, everyone was guided to their barracks. Somehow, the numbering had gone wrong and Ramiele was forced to leave the group she'd ridden with to join another barrack.

Ryuu, Willow, Roland, and Alden were assigned to the same barrack. Alden chose a bunk in the corner and threw what little he had with him on it, looking around curiously.

Alden had taken the corner. Willow preferring a wall at her back, chose the bunk above Alden. She hoped he didn't mind, but he gave her an added sense of security. Maybe they wouldn't be getting their belongings, since they didn't seem to have separate rooms to put them in? All she really cared about were her swords and manuscripts. She hoped they wouldn't be disposed of. It still had her on edge that all she had was her notepad, and a few books she wasn't likely to open. The whole day was finally catching up with her. Until something happened, she was going to rest on the bunk.

Roland found himself in a room, which they called barracks and that seemed a downgrade from the private room he had back at his old school. Why they would send them to a more exclusive school and then immediately begin to deprive them of comforts they had had only recently that morning he didn't understand. Yet he was certain there was some sort of method beyond the slightly less than obvious madness of the thing.

When he found himself in the same room with his new friend he decided that it hardly mattered, all the solitude had ever given him was time to study. He didn't really need that much time to study anyway, anything he wanted to learn was a the press of a button on his computers. So when confronted with a choice of bunk he simply selected a bottom bunk close enough to Alden and Willow that he could see and speak to either one easily should they even be allowed, from his experience he could say they probably wouldn't be. It seemed that those in charge always thought what you didn't want to do was better for you, and in some ways it was, in other it was simply attempts at breaking the free wills of others. Something that always seemed to be underneath the methods of other people.

A voice came over the loudspeaker, "Esteemed students- future Ladies and Gentlemen of great importance- this situation must seem daunting to you- even backwards... but we assure each and every one of you that you are here in Limbo for a mere maximum of 3 days. Rooms must be sorted for all of you and that takes time. All of your belongings are being moved to Elevated so that you may feel at home once there." There was a pause for a background voice to speak, "While you are here, there are a few tests we would like for you to take as well as some activities we would like for you to take part in. Remember- the body must be as fit as the mind- and the heart more than both."

There was a silence for a few seconds after the person stopped- whether they were waiting to make sure there wasn't more or trying to figure out what was just said. But it didn't last long. Alden waited long enough to take a deep breath, "The heart? What does that mean?"

Looking up at the sound of the announcement Roland listened carefully and then slumped back down on the bed. Nothing excited just something to calm the nerves of the probably jumpy new recruits for the Elevated school system. Alden's words were definitely more interesting, whatever they meant by it was something to think upon.
" It could easily be many things, my mind automatically goes in a hundred directions when I try to think upon it. They could be saying that they want us to have healthy hearts and eat right so we done have myocardial infarctions and wind up dead on them. It could also be that they are making some reference to the idea that the heart is the source of love or a generalized sort of emotion and they want us to all be very kind and generous individuals. Or it could be as my mind easily went to such a place, that they have some interest in examining the human heart, and a healthy heart is the easiest to examine and dissect for whatever it is they are looking for in this case."

Smiling at the slightly far fetched but mildly interesting idea he turned so he was leaning against the wall and facing his companions. Hopefully things in Elevated would be more cheerful and less sinister than the places his mind ventured.

Willow laid back on the bunk finally able to relax knowing her things were not lost or tossed, and would soon be returned to her. But, she was a bit sad about having their own room. It was kind of reassuring to have her friends there with her. She wouldn't have thought she would feel that way, but now that they were here she found it pleasant. With everything that had happened it was no surprise that even with all the commotion, she soon drifted off to sleep.

Alden looked up at Willow, only to see she had fallen asleep, "Good for her. Hopefully they'll actually give her some time to rest." He smiled and climbed out his bunk, pulling off the blanket, then took a deep breath and climbed the bunk's steps to be level with her bed, muttering the whole time about heights and not looking down. He spread the blanket over her and leaned against the wall, "I think one of us should stay... but- you wanna do some reconnaissance? See what's going on around here?"

Watching the other boy Roland also watched Willow drift into sleep. It seemed that the excitement of the day had been sufficient to see her exhausted, although Roland simply felt ready for the next piece of the puzzle and the next bit of excitement. The suggestion of reconnaissance as Alden put it was a good one, if probably a foolish one. Yet Roland had never thought himself one to over think his actions. So with a rather lopsided smile he slipped out of the bunk he had chosen and picked his small hand-held computer out of his shoe.
" I'd be overjoyed to have a look around. It's sort of discomforting not to know what lies more than a little ways beyond the next door. Being confined has never really been my thing anyway. Maybe I'll see something new and exciting in this grand and powerful Elevated."

Leaning up against the door he listened quietly and waited to continue the possibly short conversation with Alden. He wasn't in any real hurry to head out, and it would be those who slipped out at the beginning who would be caught the easiest. Best to let others try it while he waited and listened before he himself stepped out and looked to see what they were allowing and what they would not abide.

Ryuu watched the events reflectively before him, only to take to mind as a mental note as to what could possibly come. The main question was what was he to do? Should he speak up and follow Roland out or just introduce himself now? Well, they are in the same cabin so he might as well before they disappeared out the door, leaving him alone with a sleeping young woman... aside from the others that appeared to be busy amongst themselves with their groups of friends.

He hopped off of his bunk bed, making a dull thud on the floor as he said, "I'll join you if you're going out to explore a bit, and as you said, being confined isn't my thing either."

He smiled mischievously as his eyes almost flickered with the idea of exploration, one of his many hobbies that he likes and tends to do, which also causes him to wander around, causing people to wonder where he has gone and such as he often disappears.

"That is, of course, if you don't mind me joining," Ryuu added quickly, raising an eye-brow as to wonder if he's going to be accepted by this person or not.

Alden glanced over at his fellow classic-boarder and new friend, "It might be nice to have someone along with you, Roland... though I'd not mind at all to have some non-slumbering company as well... especially if that company were one of like mind," he looked down at his skateboard, flipping it as he said this.
