"And that's it. Any questions?"

"does this school serve cake?" The smallest boy raised his hand.

"No."

"What?!" Honey-senpai teared up," no cake?"

"Yeah, the administration has to abide by certain rules or the school is shut down. And cake is not allowed to be sold here at the school. Any other questions?"

I checked my watch," oh crap! I gotta go, my practice is starting in a few minutes and we're doing the oak course today. Bye!" I raced off to the JROTC room, stuffing my t-shirt into my pants as I ran.

As I stepped into the room, I answered the roll call and grabbed my water, dropped my phone in my bag, and ran out to get into formation.

I panted slightly as I stood in formation. As we marched out in step, we sang a cadence about killing baby seals or something like it. When we got to the course Boy team 1 left to go do rope bridge and Girl team 1 started the actual course. Since I was on Girl team 2, I got to stretch out a bit more and watch the boys on Teams 2 and 3 rough house in the dirt padding for the rope.

I knew no one would completely understand Raiders until they joined, but it was nice to know that there was something that I had that most people in this school didn't: A team that could rely on each other for anything and a family of idiots. But we're each other's idiots and nothing can change that fact.

When practice was over, I hefted my backpack onto my shoulder and headed out the door to a truck which my dad would be driving to take us home. As I slipped into the seat, I started wondering about the boys we showed around today. Why was Honey so upset that we didn't have cake? And why was Kyoya writing so much down in that notebook of his? It didn't make any sense so I shook my head and went inside.

I woke up the next morning at 4:30 and started to get ready for morning practice. After that excercise, I got to shower again, which felt like bliss, and set off for my first period, english. When I got there, a surprise was sitting in my seat, seemingly waiting for something or someone.
