Cedric had his eyes closed in meditation when all of a sudden, he sensed a presence invading his minimized field of senses and closing in on their location.
He saw that it was the people from the army, and behind them was Orion.
Seeing this, Cedric sat up on his bed and stretched a bit. He glanced at his other male batchmates and saw most of them trying to get some sleep or doing something else to distract them.
BAM!
Those who were caught unprepared jumped in surprise when the doors of the quarters suddenly blew wide open. Four people entered as if nothing happened and stopped at the center of the room.
"First years, gather around and form a line." Orion ordered in a stern voice.
