Only two passengers occupied the bus, aside from the driver.
Mike, and James.
They sat at opposite ends, avoiding any interaction, despite being alumni of the same high school. Awkward.
"New York Superpower University! Everybody off!"
The doors hissed open, and the two disembarked, heading in opposite directions.
Most students, like James, had to go through another round of selection and elimination to secure a spot.
Only the top three from each sector at summer camp received automatic admission.
Following the instructions on his acceptance letter, Mike found the registration office and completed the new student enrollment process. Easy peasy.
"Mike, you've been assigned to Class 3, 46th cohort. Your dorm is in South Sector A105. Here's your student ID, dorm key…" The instructor handed Mike a folder. "Your assigned upperclassman is Kaelum. The records show you two know each other… Kaelum! Over here!"
