That morning had been a rather shocking one, literally! Instead of seeing Astrid at the dorm she saw Ruffnut. Ruffnut had brought the Zippleback that she and her brother shared into the dorm. And she used its spark to wake up the sleeping students.

The sun rose and as did Metal 'just a few more days till they arrive' he though He dragged himself out of bed and went to the archery range as expected nobody was there, Metal took the time to make some adjustments to the rang to make it easier for any new students, 'ha' he thought 'students I'm a teacher'. Two crates had been dropped of for him which contained hundreds of arrows, he spent the time crating new bows and loading quivers with arrows until somebody showed up if anybody would that is.

"Not helping!" Vim hissed at her. "I'm trying to convince Astrid that we didn't do anything!"
"I don't care about your love life," snapped Astrid, "but the headmaster does. He's the one who told me to come get you. Now get down there, lovebirds, before you get me into trouble too." With that she flew off.
Vim must've looked so embarrassed. "Oh, Thor."

Metal looked up and listened carefully he could have sworn he just heard Astrid yelling, regardless he went back to craving new bows.

"Love life? Did she seriously jus-ugh. Nevermind." With a roll of the eyes, she waked Zirth (on the third try) and got everything saddled up. She rolled up the lent sleeping bag and handed it to Vim. "Even though Astrid took it to unnecessary levels, I want to say thank you for coming last night."

"Wha-what was that?" Dotta asked. Praying to Thor that she had heard Ruffnut wrong.
"Ughh. I said we're going to teach you wimps about working as a team." Ruffnut said with a roll of her eyes. Clearly this was all beneath her. Unlike electrocuting unsuspecting vikings.
"i was afraid of that," Dotta said under her breath.
"Yeah. So, we're like gonna teach you how to fight and hit like a guy and stuff." Tuffnut said looking rather smug.
"I think we're doomed." A nearby student whispered to Dotta.
Ruffnut had overheard the student's comment and proceeded to punch his lights out.
"See? We're going to teach you how to hit like that. Like a guy." Tuffnut jeered.

"You mean you don't hate me?" He laughed. "Apparently the headmaster thinks we.... Well, we have to go talk to him." He said grimly. "And no problem. I had fun last night. Talking. Just talking. Totally platonic." He cracked a smile, although on the inside he was terrified. He lead the way to the headmasters's building.

"I had fun too," she smirked. The girl followed in suit. She knew all well of what the headmaster thought. And he couldn't be more wrong. What? Could two opposite gendered students talk to each other on the top of an inactive volcano at night without having rumors spread like wildfire? Apparently not. "After we're done with the headmaster, I have to head to Metal for archery training. Hopefully he won't be too angry I'm not there." She'd never seen him angry, and part of her didn't want to.

"I need to work on my spearfighting." Said Vim as they landed. "And my shield practice." He walked up to the door and knocked. "It's Vim and Boethiah!"
"Come in." Vim took a deep breath and opened the door. Empty bookcases lined the walls. The books were kept in the fortified hatchery for safekeeping.
"Come, sit." Said the Headmaster.
"Sir, I can explain-" Vim began.
"No." He said, "let her explain."

She went in with Vim and sat down in the nearly empty room. When she was told she had to explain she nearly died right there. "Umm..." Her eyes glanced over to Vim before looking at the Headmaster to continue. "You see sir...last night I was a bit upset by everything that was happening and Vim came to apologize for snapping earlier and..." She sighed a little. "Honestly, sir. All we were doing was talking. And we just thought it to be a better idea to camp out on the caldera edge than go back to the dorms. It was my idea, sir. Please don't blame him for this. It's all just a big misunderstanding."

Vim looked at her shocked. It was his idea to sleep up there.

Metal head looked up from his work and saw ruffnut and Tuffnut chasing girls around the dorms and grimaced "what is with people today?"

The Headmaster looked at them both. "Is this true, Vim?" Boethiah wanted to take the blame. He wanted to fight and this might not let him. Heck, it might send him back home. So she gave him a look to go with it. Because about 99.99% of that story was true.

"Its true."
The headmaster sighed. "I have no energy to deal with this. There is to much going on. Go, return to training. But do not let this happen again."

"Yes sir. It won't happen again. Come on Vim." With that, she got up and left with him, walking a bit faster. But once out, she let out a sigh of relief. "Oh thank Odin for that. Listen, I'll catch you later, okay? I have to go." She jumped on Zirth and headed to the dorm to grab her bows and then rushed to the archery range where Metal was sitting and waiting. "Sorry I'm late," she apologized. "Got in a bit of a mix up but it's all good now. How are you?"
