Dragons of Arma (re-edit) by Fatesknight

So most of our activity is within the first semester of the new class coming in. Your class DiCe crew will be put to the test. The juniors and seniors like to wait till the freshmen are on deck before starting anything.

Just to see if they can get away with it. Most classes have a few DiCe members who let certain things slide. Don’t become one of those, if Ursor finds out, there will be hell to pay.

Come on I will show you to the tram line.” We walk out talking about the inner workings of the DiCe; Paperwork, Detention, how to field requests for DiCe intervention or requests for DiCe supervision of events. He leads me across Sigma ring to the entrance to the university grounds.

At the entrance there is a big tram hub with a few pedestrian walkways connecting the Sigma ring to Alpha ring. He leads me into the hub. Looking around I see a few students here and there.

He leads me over to a podium next to a gate on the other side of a security station. He taps his Percom to the pedestal before walking through a gate. Looking at me he says “DiCe members are the only ones besides the Headmaster and Arbiters that can bypass security stations anywhere.

Just tap your Percom to the pedestal at any security checkpoint and either you pass through the side gate or walk right through the sensor, it will read green for you.” I tap my Percom to the pedestal and the gate opens. I join him on the other side.

I feel a vibration and look down at my Percom and notice it has turned Red. He nods to my Percom. “Your Percom just updated letting you know which trams to get on to get to your home.

If you set a destination into your Percom. The moment you step through the security at a tram station it will update your directions for the fastest travel. Right now it is telling you that you need to get on Red tram.

When you need to switch trams it will vibrate and change colors before entering the station you have to change trams at. Once you get to the closest tram station to your destination it will vibrate twice and return to its regular color.” He tilts his head.

“Red tram is over that way I am heading the other direction so I will see you this weekend if we have any calls otherwise I will see you Monday morning . If you get too lost just bring up the directions on your Percom and turn the voice setting on and it will guide you step by step home.” I nod and turn walking over to the stairway with the Red color leading the way.

I make it just in time to hop on the tram. Taking a seat, I pull up the manuals for the DiCe and start reading through them. I switch trams three times before getting off on my stop.

Walking out of the tram station I see nothing but walls of grey. All the buildings look alike. You can tell the residential buildings from the business only by their size.

I look down at my Percom and find my address. Saying to myself Omega-13-69-1301 so remembering what the class rep said I live at Omega ring, Area 13, Building 69, Room 1301. Looking around I see that I am in front of building four.

I start walking following the direction on my Percom. The sky starts to darken as I approach the DiCe building. Stepping the front door I notice that there are a couple people milling around.

A couple of them notice me and stop talking which seems to spread through the group. Walking through the lobby I ignore them as I step up to the lift. I swipe my Percom across the pad on the wall.

Watching a disc slide out, I step onto it and wait a second before the lift starts moving upwards. The lift reaches the 13th floor looking around I realize this is the top floor and that it only has one door. Walking off the lift to the door I tap my Percom to the door plate then watch as the door slides back.

Stepping in the door I find a short hallway, with a closet on the right, leading to a big open room. The big room turns out to be a living room with an attached dining room which opens into a big kitchen with an island and breakfast bar. Looking to the left I see double doors and a single door.

Approaching the single door I see a half bathroom which I assume is for guests. Then walking to the double doors I peek in and am amazed by the size of the bedroom. It has a huge bed and by the looks of it a nice sized walk in closet.

Seeing another door off to the left I move over to it and looking in a see a very nice bathroom with a walk in shower and a deep pool which looks like a lap pool. Walking back into the living room I see my bags in the middle of the floor. Spending the next hour unpacking and putting stuff away.

By the time I finish it is already the twenty second hour. Figuring that I better get some sleep without knowing what I am in for this weekend. I crawl into the bed and quickly fall to sleep.
