A few hours later, after the first class of the day. Ember and Elric left their math class with smiles on their faces, but instead of heading to their second class like usual, they went directly to the college's performing arts center.
There was a small group of people waiting in the lobby of the building, a number of them carrying instruments.
The college would provide stuff to people for the tryouts, but most folks still wanted to bring their own. Unless someone was playing something that wasn't easily portable- like a piano or full drum set- they would likely want to bring their own instrument.
"Hey, Ember and Elric!"
A young man waved to the duo as they walked in through the front doors of the building, then beckoned for them to come over toward the entrance of the auditorium area.
"You guys made it on time, nice! We were starting to get worried."
Ember's eyebrows furrowed as she looked over the young man, and the other party let out a little chuckle.
