--Scene Change--

The students groaned as their professor handed out the test - a packet of at least ten papers stapled together, along with his provided number two pencils... and no sharpeners. He had a nasty habit of saying if you couldn't provide your own, you failed the test.

It was the first test of the first semester of the school year. A fresh new intake of exchange students had the school buzzing, but today no one in the room was feeling it. Everyone looked exhausted from late night cramming and Arashi Haru was no exception... although cramming had not been what he was up all night doing.

He supposed it could be worse... although staring at the paper through his glasses, he didn't see how. At least it was all material he knew and the only things he had to worry about were trying to get his left hand to properly function and ignoring the half-snores of the person falling asleep beside him.
