Cole usually tried to be optimistic. But this was too much. All Cole could do was regard the giant building with a "huh." Before entering.

He wasn't the only kid arriving at that time. Another child strolled in. As Cole waited for the headmaster in the hall the other boy stood ramrod straight, staring blankly at the air. He was very different than Cole. While Cole had a very dark complexion he was pale as snow. His eyes were a startling blue and his hair stood straight up perfectly. While Cole had on a deep grey hoodie and sweat pants, the tall boy had on a crisp light blue collared shirt under a sweater vest.

Cole tried not to stare but there was something unsettlingly robotic about him that he couldn't help but look at him from the corner of his eye.

"Cole Brookstone, Zane Julien." The old headmaster entered. "Nice to finally meet you."

"Hi." Cole said awkwardly.

"And you are Master Wu." Zane said, even his voice held a formal style, the words were a statement.

"Indeed." Wu replied  with a smile. 

The man glanced at the empty room, completely aware of the lack of guardians beside them both but didn't say anything as he brought them inside.

Cole blinked. He knew why he didn't have a parent with him but Zane... did he have a off relationship with his father too?

"I'll let you two get settled in." Wu pointed to the hall where the dorms were.

Cole easily found his, it was the first door. "This is me."

Zane gave him a confused look. "That does not make sense, you are you. A door is an inanimate object."

Okay, what? This guy was a very logical person.

"Yes- I didn't... never mind." Cole dragged his palm over his face tiredly. "See you later."

Cole entered the room, finding two room keys on hooks by the door as he stepped inside. Along with a freckled faced  boy hanging upside down off of a bed.

What?

"Oh!" The boy tried to jerk upright when he caught sight of him but his upper body strength didn't appear to be very good so he just fell off the bed with a yelp. Cole snorted, covering his mouth with his hand as the boy stumbled to his feet. He wore a blue sweater and jeans, auburnish locks curly and wild. His blue eyes were bright though and he stuck out a hand.

"I'm Way Jalker!" He frowned and quickly back peddled. "I mean Jay Walker!"

Cole chuckled and shook the hand, eyes widening when his arm was then jerked up and down rapidly. This guy held a lot of nervous energy.
