Though it was technically Ren's first day after transferring schools, she had moved into the dorms during the break and spent her time familiarizing herself with the campus. This made it easier for her to be up earlier so she could get a few laps in at the pool before classes. By the time her secondary alarm had gone off, alerting her it was time to get ready for classes, she had just finished showering form her morning swim. "Lets see," she started reciting her schedule and which buildings they were in while she got dressed.
"Shouldn't you be getting to class," the swim coach asked when she noticed Ren in the locker room.
"I uh," Ren shrugged, "Yeah, just running a little behind this morning."
"Don't be late."
"Right. I'll see you at practice," she replied before running out of the room and out of the building. Looking around she frowned, "Where is building C again?"

"Guys," Usopp tried waking up Luffy and Zoro, "Come on get up!"
"Five more minutes," Zoro groaned.
"Is breakfast ready," Luffy mumbled in his sleep.
"No," Usopp said as he shoved Zoro out of bed. "You have to go to the café if you want breakfast."
"But whyyyy," Luffy asked as he sat up.
"Because class is in fifteen minutes." Usopp left the two there, making his way towards his first class which was a mechanical engineering class. This was the class he had been looking forward to since he enrolled a few years ago.

Ren ran around for a few minutes until she saw a few students walking. [I I could ask them,] she thought as she slowed her pace and approached them. "Excuse me?"
"You have hair stuck to your face," Gwen pointed out.
"Occupational hazard, I just came from the pool." She quickly moved her hair, "Can either of you tell me where building C is?"
Gwen raised a brow, unenthused, "Are you new here? You don't look familiar."
"Transferred for the semester. Building C? Please." Ren adjusted the bag on her shoulder and the chemistry book in her hand. It was clear she was nervous to some degree and the possibility of being late had her stressed. When it was clear that the girl with black and white hair would be no help, she turned her attention to the tall blond man standing next to her. "Please," she sighed, "I really can't be late to this class."
Gwen frowned when the woman in front of her focused her attention on Sanji. Not wanting to give him a chance to respond, she spoke up again. "Is that your real hair color?"
"I'm sorry what?"
"White I mean. Is it real?"
Ren's eye twitched in irritation, "Yes its real. Look, are you going to help or not?"
"Building C is over by building F which is next to the infirmary and just a bit passed the track field," Gwen replied with a smile hoping her directions would confuse the girl enough to get her lost and she wouldn't have to deal with her again. Truth was, building C was next to the student cafe and gardens, that was the easier way to find it.
