"First Ward, Ninth Ward, come to the street entrance!"
Less than half an hour after sunrise, the birdsong was pouring into the two-story building through the hole Mel had created, and a voice they had never heard before was calling them out. The forty youths were wary, and this could be a trap. No one left before one of the Wind Element users confirmed officers were wearing the Red Claw Academy Uniform.
"Don't be shy; get out!
The loud-sounding attendant shouted, laughing this time. There was a hint of haste in his voice, characteristic of people who knew the situation he was about to face and were looking forward to it. Despite this, the young students inside the two-story building did not come out, patiently waiting for them to be called out once more.
"Come here quick, you dregs! You have one minute, or you start the day without breakfast!"
