The elevator arrives on the fifth floor and the Core Four slowly walk to their rooms. N is leading with her hands in her pockets, occasionally looking back to see the others watching her. Analytically.

"If you're trying to figure me out, stop trying," N says, not bothering to look back. "I  doubt most of the people I know, or at least knew, have figured me out yet anyways. What makes you think you can?"

"Something tells me you're easier to figure out than you think you are, Princess." She can hear his confidence dripping from his words. Her eyes twitch.

N stops in her tracks and immediately turns around. Angrily, she marches up to K and glares at him. T and C just watch as the events unfold, not knowing whether or not to stop them.

"And what makes you think that. . . King?" She growls, fire blazing in her eyes. "How confident are you with those words?"

"Pretty confident, Princess," He smirks, looking down at her as she is a few inches shorter.

C looks at them, concerned.

"I swear. . . Try me, you son of a bitch," She warns, her eyes steely and cold.

"Shut the fuck up, both of you," T sighs. "We don't need this right now. Someone tried to shoot a fireball at us. A fireball."

"I thought the only rule of this place is to not use your powers or abilities outside of the Training Ground?" K asks, looking around.

"Yeah, that's what we were told. I guess someone wanted to be in trouble, just to hit us a fucking fireball," T answered. He then stares at N, glaring. "And you. . . You need to tell us how you knew a fireball was going to be thrown at us. A freaking fireball."

N sighs, "I told you. I would rather talk about it in the dorm."

"Then, move it, Princess." K lightly pushes her forward.

"You're the one who started it, K," She snarled, pushing K away from her. "You could've just stayed quiet and we would have already been to the dorm room. But your ego just loves to try and prove people wrong."

She shoves passed T and walks away heading towards the room. N doesn't bother looking back anymore.

C sighs, "Come on, let's go. She owes us an explanation."

The remaining three start to make their way to the dorm. T doesn't bother speaking anymore as he continues to fiddle with his watch, ignoring his company. C and K continue to talk about the fireball and N's sudden knowledge about it.

"What do you think she's going to tell us?"  C asked, glancing at K while continuing the short walk to the dorm.

Arriving shortly after asking, K stops in front of the door. He looks at the two standing next to him. His hand is on the doorknob. "Well, I guess we find out, huh?"

He opens the door to see N sitting on the window sill, staring outside. She glances at the three of them before looking out of the window. "Do you want to know how I knew someone was going to throw a fireball at us for whatever the reason?"

"Of course, you said you'd explain." K looks at her, eyes locked onto hers.

T just glances up, before looking down again at his watch. "Get on with it, N."

"Fine. I think it has something to do with my ability."

"Ability?" C looks at her, confused. "I thought none of us had any."
