August glanced down at the paper in his hand one more time before looking at the door that would be leading to his bedroom for the year. He checked it again, each time more anxious as he read the names of the note and the names on the door, distressed as he realized they matched. It wasn't a mistake. He wouldn't be rooming with Minyeol. He sighed, biting his lip and glancing around. Minyeol wasn't here yet... He opened the door and stepped inside.

The blonde-haired boy stared at the stranger, lying on a bed on the right side of the room. He shifted uncomfortably, he always slept on that side of the room. But his roommate had gotten here first and it would be rude to ask him to move. It still bothered him though, he always had his stuff on that side. That was his side. Minyeol understood. But this wasn't Minyeol. His eye twitched.

He narrowed his eyes in annoyance. That wasn't even the slightest bit amusing. Plus Minyeol had asked the same question to him when they first met... except Minyeol's tone seemed a bit more innocent and less teasing. "No. June."

He shook his head again, walking over to the now empty space and placing his backpack on the bed. Most of his other stuff would be coming soon later so he just sat down and turning on his HC to text Minyeol.
*Hey, where r u?*
He didn't receive a reply and he shifted again. Minyeol usually replies immediately.

He looked up, the silence felt uncomfortable and stiff. He stood up. The feeling didn't change, he sat down. Then he lied down and closed his eyes until his HC rung with a notification. He jumped, turning on his HC and reading the message.
*On my way, y?*
He quickly typed back.

*I'm here already*

Minyeol dragged a hand through his hair, staring at the bedroom assignments pinned to the door of his bedroom with minor disdain. This doesn't make sense. They always pair them together, they personally requested so. It's been four years. There's no way they forgot. August's bedroom was beside his though. He stepped towards it, tempted to confront the bastard who replaced him as August's room mate. The door had remained open, August had never bothered to close it. He walked in and August practically jumped in joy, he admitted that he grinned himself.

"Ms. Sanders, I was wondering if you could switch around the bedroom assignments?" he asked, his tone a complete reversal from the one he used with Jax. "I believe there was some sort of mishap since there are even files recorded that state August and I are supposed to be in the same bedroom. You remember that right?"

Of course, the secretary remembered, August had nearly broken down at the thought of having to stay with someone else. Granted, the child was 13 and had OCD, so changes like that would've probably been something that would bother him. She nodded, immediately searching up dorm information. "Dorm One, Jackson Woods, Augustus Reed, and Minyeol Ahn," she said, Yeol confirmed the information with a simple nod. "I assume you want to switch out Mr. Woods? If so, does he have an issue with this?"

August went ahead and took the first turn, generating a green ball of flames. "Turbinis vasti!" he yelled before tossing it up in the air and summoning a baseball bat made out of ice to hit it with. The green flaming ball shot off at speeds too fast for the human eye. It hit the ground from the flames sprouted a tornado, heading straight for Yeol.

The wind from the tornado was making it almost impossible to stand upright and August was close to being blown away. The shield was protecting Minyeol for now but August needed a way to break through it. Unfortunately, the time to think was over because his tornado seemingly left his control and headed towards the side of the stadium Jax was sitting in as if saying, *Hey, I'd like to go kill some people today!* His eyes widened but he didn't know how to stop it.

The shield came back down, revealing the tornado gone rogue and Jax jumping down from the stadium seats. He cursed under his breath and jogged over to the other side of the court before summoning another flame of magic and launching it underneath Jax. "Vos Ciniculum!" The flames surrounded Jax before carving out the ground beneath him and making him fall as the Tornado passed overhead. Once it did, he ran over, wide-eyed as the tornado finally began to disperse as five minutes came to an end.

He shifted uncomfortably, glancing away from Jax and towards one of the expensive, technology-equipped, study booths the school owned many of. He held back his surprise and disappointment and blankly stated: "That's nice to know."

"I asked *what* is it," he reminded him. "They remodeled the library system over the summer. It will take forever to find your book trying to figure it out with the old one. Which means your book is most likely not on the floor below us."

He didn't follow, just rolled his eyes and focused his attention on something else. Something worthwhile. Jax wouldn't accept his help so he would not offer it anymore. There are other people who need assistance anyway.

He began to walk away, half to look for August, half to find something better to do then force conversation with the indifferent moron. If Jax wanted to follow him, he wasn't going to stop him. He didn't particularly care, just didn't have anymore party tricks to spare.

There was something... behind those desks... A faint golden glow...? Suddenly, he turned, heading past a couple of shelves until he found a shelf with an arch in it. An entry way to another room. At first, it was difficult to determine whether or not the golden globe hovering in the center of the room was a hologram or magic, but it had a mystical sense to it. Yeol concluded it was magic. He stepped closer and tapped a star on the Island of Athena. A frameless mirror materialized, showing what seemed like live feed of the city of Basincross. He watched, stunned and intrigued.

"Have you met this school?" He snorted. "Everything is over the top... But sort of appealing, I guess." He studied the mirror screen. "It... It looks like Basincross. Wait, one second..." he tapped the mirror, expanding the screen. "It *is* Basincross! It's like... live feed. What the...?"

He nodded, returning his hands to his pockets. "Basincross.... It's in Section Three of the Island of Athena. The population is like six million to sixty point six million? I've personally always wanted to visit. My family doesn't have the luxury of quality mirrors so traveling anywhere is very difficult... Still, it'd be nice to go there. Just once. "

His eye twitched as he watched Jax leave, biting back unkind words. He rolled his eyes and continued to the room where he found the globe, only minorly confused when the exit back into the library disappeared when he stepped in.

August was exactly where Yeol had predicted him to be. In the graphic novels section, skimming through every book on every shelf he could reach.

He jumped, surprised to see Jax. "Oh... h-hey," he murmured, turning to put the graphic novel he was reading back. "I usually get Otherworld comics from a friend who lives there and stops by every once and awhile to visit... These are Mirrorworld comics. They're equally as interesting though."
