John POVWe wake up and pack our sleeping bags. We make our way to our lockers. On the way, we pass a girl with red hair and a Chinese boy. I don't know what they're talking about, but it sounds like it has something to do with the team rumors going around.
Girl: I know, we'll have some sort of signal, like a distress signal, a secret signal so we can find each other in the forest! Can you imitate a sloth?
Boy: Nora?
Nora: Yes, Ren?He hides some sort of pistol in his sleeves... somehow.
Ren: I don't think sloths make a lot of noise.

Not catching on it is.
Nora: No one will suspect we're working together!
Ren: Come on, Nora.
Nora: But not together-together.Alex shakes his head and chuckles. He's checking the ammunition for his gun.
Alex: Wonder what we're gonna see out there?
Arthur: Grimm, most likely.Arthur is loading his gun on a bench.
Richard: I'm just wondering how their going to form the teams.
He's strapping his gun over his shoulders.
