 -Aurora was starting her second year at Crystal Academy. Most of the tour guides and new student mentors were senior students, but while Aurora was only a junior she'd impressed the teachers with her responsibility and manners. She'd always really fit in with the school's 'proper lady' image, so it only made sense that they'd ask her to help give a few new girls a proper introduction to it.
Aurora fidgeted with her skirt as she waited at the meeting point that had been scheduled, the fountain and small garden in front of the dormitory. She hadn't been waiting for very long at all, and they weren't scheduled to meet anyway until the bell chimed, but she was nervous nonetheless. Nervous and excited to show the first girl, Ariel Strom, around.-

 Ariel was excited; today finally she will be able to take a tour in the Academy. She just arrived this year and even if she already checked on the plan lot of time it was not the same.
With the guide tour she will be able to learn from a student the life in school and she was looking forward it.
The meeting point was the fountain in front of the dormitory. Because Ariel boarded at school she exactly know where it was. So she woke up, put her uniform and went before the bell chimed.
A Girl with white hair and green eyes was waiting. Maybe it was her.
"Miss Aurora?" She called while arriving.

"Yes that's me!" -She stood up from her place on the bench as she heard her name, eyes searching for the source, waving once she'd found it. The girl was pretty and she looked nice enough too, but only time would tell.-
"I'm Aurora Namid" -She introduced herself more properly once they were side by side, offering her hand for a delicate shake.- "Ariel, right?"
"I'm a junior here, and I've lived here for about a year now, so hopefully I'll be able to help you." -Her voice was pleasant, though it did seem a bit like she'd scripted what she was saying, maybe it was just that she'd practiced it about five times the night before.- "We can start with a general tour I guess and then if you have anywhere special you'd like to see we can go there afterwards. And of course if you have any questions feel free to ask them at any time."
"Does that sound good?"

Ariel smiled back at the girl. She looked friendly, that was good, and to tell the truth Ariel stressed a lot last night because a lot of people said she looked cold, so she had difficulties to interact with others.
“Yes” she answered at the question “Ariel Storm, nice to meet you” she said while shaking back the hand of the young girl.
“I just arrived this year, I am 16 so a junior too. But I just arrived this year so I don’t know anything about the school. I am just discovering the city too. So your help is more than welcome.”
Her voice was calm and composed because she was used to being quiet, but inside she was really excited.
“The general tour sounds pretty good. I am following you”
((I guess she is a junior actually I don’t really know about the grade yet))

-Aurora was pleased the more she heard the other girl speak. She seemed polite and pleasant, something that wasn't always the case with Crystal princesses. Her nervousness was draining quickly and she turned to lead the other girl on with a light wave.-
"This is the garden obviously and right up ahead of us is the dormitory. Most of the students stay here in the dorms. There are single student dorms and dorms set up for two girls at once. I had a room to myself for the first semester but got a roommate for the second one. She's very nice."
-She paused to open the door to the for Ariel, leading into the modern and fancy main hall.- "It's pretty easy to find your room and anyone elses by using these maps on each floor."
-They went through the hallways and back out the backside of the dorms, the main building of the school visible.- "The bell is loud enough to be heard most everywhere on campus so you always know when class is. The general classes are this way."

Ariel followed the white haired girl. Aurora explanations were nice and clear.
She herself was leaving in the dorm, but she never took the time to visit it.
“Oh, I got a room for myself too. I don’t really know why. It is good if your roommate is nice. I am not sure I would be able to interact well with someone living with me actually.” She said with a little laugh while walking through the door opened by Aurora.
“There is a map, great, first time I am seeing it.” She searched her room on it. “Oh it is here, 3rd floor room 67” she pointed with a smile.
Then she went to the backside, looking at it for the first time. When Aurora spoke about the bell Ariel laughed. “Oh yes I agree, the first day I was not use to it, I almost had a heart attack”.

-Aurora nodded a little at the other girl's sentiment, giving a soft and pleasant laugh. She too hadn't really felt any need or desire for a roommate.. not until she'd actually become a senshi and seen Eve and Rea rooming.
The admission about the bell received another soft smile as the school drew closer, and Aurora held the door for Ariel when they arrived at it.- "It can be startling when you don't expect it, but it's really handy too. You don't even need to worry about a watch, which is nice in the physical education classes and home ed classes."
-Once through the door she began to lead down the halls, pointing to lighted hallways of doors as she named off their subjects. English and Literature wing. Maths and Statistics. Sciences. Social Sciences. As they neared the more specialized classes she slowed down, hoping to try and gauge what the other girl might be interested in.- "I take my general dancing classes in here. And even though I don't have home ec this semester, the teacher lets me use the kitchens over here sometimes when the classes isn't being used."
"The teachers tend to be very agreeable and friendly here" -It probably had a lot to do with how much they were being paid, and trouble that angry rich parents might cause otherwise, but those thoughts didn't occur to Aurora.-

Ariel continued to follow the Aurora, taking personal notes of the place and ways for everything. She had a pretty good memory, which was useful in this case.
She passed through the door held by her guide “It is good because I don’t have a watch actually. Only a wake up alarm and a cell phone.”
As the visit the inside of the school, she could spot rooms she was in during class. “You are doing dance? That is pretty nice. I am doing horse riding. They have some lessons in the school”. Because it was a school for rich girls and well looked like riding horse was part of the education.
“I am taking home ec as option and accounting option. I am not bad for cooking. And well I spend the rest of my time in the library.” She smiled and blushed a little. Some people called her Hermione Granger because of that.

"It can be hard to find a watch that matches with a lot of outfits. Usually they are bulky, and the pretty delicate ones are so easy to break." -She commented lightly on Ariel's watch comment. Sure there could be plenty of other reasons not to wear one.. practicality, expense, preference. But fashion WAS a big thing at Crystal, so it wasn't much to assume she might have meant it that way.-
"Oh horses? That's very neat. I hear there is a good riding club and program here. I've never been into them much myself, but I'm sure you'll meet lots of people in the stables with similar interests"
"Home Ec however, that's one of my favorites." -She added with a light smile.- "Maybe we'll end up in the same class, or atleast bump into each other inbetween them. I come to cook here alot when there aren't classes using it."
-Library! She'd forgotten about it, and the girl's words drew her back in to tour mode. She didn't notice the blush, but even if she had she wouldn't have said anything. Studying was a good thing in her eyes. Far better than some of the other things some of the less lady like girls did with their freetime. Leading towards a window she pointed out to another fairly large building across the way from the gardens.- "The library is in a building of it's own right over there."
"But there is an even better one in town that's public and larger. Not to mention some very nice bookstores."

While they were walking around, Ariel was happy to be able to speak so openly with Aurora. Because she was not really the talkative type, she used to just listen to peole in general, even if she liked making new friends.
"Actually I still haven't met anyone. But because I am advanced level I guess it is normal. Actually my family owns an equistrian center and I am teacher too".
She started when she was really small so actually her level may be the same as the teacher at the school, so she just went when she want.
"I should make my food too instead of always eating sandwich." she laughed. Not that the sandwichs were bad at school but it started to be boring.
When Aurora pointed out the library Ariel's eyes looked brighter, books were really what she loved the most after animals.
"Yeh I often go to the one in town too, the staff is pretty nice" she remembered M. Darrow. "It is the first place I looked for when I arrived in town".

-Aurora had pretty much forgotten that her duty was to be showing the other girl around, caught up in the chatting. The other girl was sweet, WAY sweeter then a good chunk of the other girls that walked the hallways. And hearing she was a prodigy or something.. Aurora gave her an approving smile and nod. The really smart ones were often much more studious and much less flighty. She wouldn't mind having this new girl as a friend at all, she'd make a great addition to the campus!-
"You might want to ask the teacher just to make certain, but I'm sure she'll say yes. Basically the rules are that you can only use the home ec room when it's not being used for class and make sure you clean up your mess and replace the ingredents you use within a day or two."
"It was one of the first places I checked out too." -She replied with a grin, pausing as the low tone of a bell could be heard, affirming the time.- "I've got class in about 30 minutes. Is there anything else you wanted to see before we finish?"

Spica was taking notes of the last places they visited so she would be sure to remember everything. She didn't want Aurora guidance to be a waste.
They got along well, she was happy. She hoped they could become friends.
"Thank you for the advice I will ask then. I think it will be a good opportunity."
She already started to organize her schedule in her mind to go see the professor in question.
She laughed when Aurora said she checked the library at first too. She was not the only one then.
"No more question, you already helped me a lot. Thank you." she paused. "Can I ask you your phone number to keep contact ?"

"Sure" -She pulled out her phone, holding the screen so that the other girl could copy the number onto her own phone. When she was done, she flipped it and set it back in her bag, offering her hand once more as she said goodbye.- "It was a pleasure meeting you Ariel, call me anytime"
"And welcome once again. I hope you like it here"

Ariel copied the phone number and then send put her phone back in her pocket.
"Thank you very much for the visit, I think I will like it"
She shook Aurora hand back and then she started moving toward the kitchens to get the information she needed.
