So I walked past those Gates of Arca, This place felt so much like a normal city would have, So basically Arca is a City very much known for its Beautiful Scenery, Riches living here and also for that Institute. For me, Arca is a beautiful place but I still carry the feeling, the suspense behind me being here It's so strange of me that I looking forward to this adventure, As it is an Adventure for me. I landed in Arca in the morning, Lana had all her plans made-up and also her to-do list but she couldn't join me. So again, Here I am and It's still a mystery 'Why am I here ?'.
There was a crowd, a huge crowd it seemed much like a cow herd to me,
" Please we need to verify your admission, please be patient" a guard spoke while holding a sign in his hand for us to form a line
"please form a line " he spoke using his mic so all of these cows and including me can hear him well ." this feels quite like cows in a slaughterhouse," I thought and a smirk appeared on my face
"Don't you worry not all Vampires are bad" a soft voice, I heard her saying and I turned around asking her
"how do you know? did you read my mind?" I wasn't that shocked Lana had done great work by being my research specialist on this quite toxic and about to be part of my journey 'Vampire' thing.
"Yes and by the way I am Shyla Boston" she answered to my sudden question, she was so free to say that as if it was quite normal here to do such things.
"Hello I am Naomi," I said trying to sound more friendly and frank as much as I can, "Are you Fresher?" I completed my sentence just to not show my Sutter on how normally people read minds here.
"Oh well yes, You?" she questioned my question
"Oh,...um" I took a short pause "Yes," I said nodding my head upside down and turning to the guard sign again and stepping forward as every student was walking through those Big Gates 'It's so high ' I thought
I took a step forward, "please your acceptance letter," a blonde man with green specs asked me, He looked like an official who is here approving the acceptance letter,
"Miss . Naomi ?" he asked,
"Yes, Here for Undergraduate studies" I replied,
"Is there any problem?" I asked him as he was looking at my letter very keenly,
"No, Nothing Miss. Naomi" He answered putting a sly smile on his face, adjusting his specs he answered, "Welcome to Arca" He added,
He doesn't look like any middle-aged man, he looks only 2 to 4 years older than me, But he sure was something I blushed at the thought of how good he looked in his blonde hair,
"Here, you'd need this Miss Naomi, it's a Rule book, dorm selection process, and everything you need ..." I nodded and he continued "...please feel free to ask for queries at school they would help you with queries"
"Where would I get my dorm keys" I kept my voice low to sound sweet and shy girl, everyone likes a shy girl maybe he would too.
"Oh, you would get your keys after Dorm selection, it's a process, it's in that book," he said,
'Dorm selection ' at this school is just building up on my curiosity,
"Aren't you into blondies?" I familiar voice I noticed,
"Hey Shyla, No not, he's cute though,h and besides he looks a senior to me" I pointed out the fact,
"Oh, he's not any official here, he's one of Ace"
'Ace?? they don't let you kill your curiosity, Naomi' ...
"hey..hey snap out of your thoughts" Shyla continued our conversation
"Yeah... so tell me about Dorm selection, what is it"? I asked her,
"You know to study here we need to have our rooms, and for that, we need to choose the leaders... We stay with the leader we choose " she replied
"It sounds like something interesting, who are these leaders," I asked her, couldn't hold my curiosity,
"It's all written in that book," she said pointing her finger at that Rule book that spec guy handed over to me.
"I'll see you later," Shyla said and she walked away to somewhere maybe She was familiar with this Campus. So I decided to look around to grab a seat, walking through this building which looks more like a Stone Castle or an Old Mansion with a Rustic look or more like a royal. Big doors, Glass windows, and exactly above of entrance door was written 'Arca High' engraved in that stone with gold,
I let out a sigh and in a low voice, I muttered "Well, let's look for a seat... " I look around in search of the seat "There's one." and I ran towards it and sat down.... people started staring at my sudden exclamation and that run I made towards this seat made me feel a bit awkward.
"Well, now let's read this so-called rule book" I whispered to myself, opening the book's hardcover, Revealing its first page which had all of these sections 'introduction, history, rules..' but the thing which caught my attention was '... Leaders ' but I remember that girl Shyla telling me about Ace but it is not mentioned here...I turned to page #8 for Rules, which were normal, Normal like any typical institute ' no drugs, visiting time, no outing without permission. of leader' They did have some other rules too like 'prohibition to enter other dorms, cannot step out at night,' looks like it'll take time to learn these all...I kept turning pages until I reach the section of leaders and I knew exactly what I was looking for 'ACE' I ran my finger across on pages looking for the words Ace and... I got that.
It says ' Dorm selection process.'
Every student needs to get selected for dorms by dorm leaders. Students have to submit their identity proofs to the dorm manager of the respective leader. Every dorm can have its own set of rules and students need to follow them...'
I kept reading and I reached the part... and I heard a bell ring and according to the rule book, it seems the time for Dorm selection.
