The rest of Anna's September was a lot different than it had been her last few years in Altsoba. The past two years, she would simply spend it doing her best in her classes and joking around and gossiping with her friends when they had free time. However, after that interaction with Heinrich, her time became more divided. She attempted to bring the fire sorcerer into her friend group multiple times, but he was so painfully awkward that it was a bit difficult. She ended up splitting her time between her original friend group and the ginger sorcerer.
They would usually meet during the lunch break, where Anna would learn the forest herself and eventually make it so that Heinrich could get back to school on time for this fifth period class. Until that first snow, Heinrich would cook for them with the things they foraged for in the forest at dinner time. A few times, Anna brought along a friend, but Heinrich's awkward nature once again made it difficult. Eventually, she would just come alone. Once the snow started, the foraging stopped, but the two would still head out to the forest. Anna even started to copy Heinrich while he was practicing his taichi, incorporating her own ballet things into it. It wasn't the best, but she was working on it.
When everyone was boarding the bus, Anna and her crowd had been the first on the Orniormabichu. ("Orniormabusu," somebody quipped,) The rather large group had taken up the five seater at the back, as well as many of the seats in front of it. Anna took one of the seats in front of the five-seater, with her light pink backpack on the seat next to her, saving it for Heinrich. She stood on the seat so that she could peer over into the aisle, looking for the red haired sorcerer.
Mia spent another week researching and linking her HoH Textbooks and the newspaper article. She did her best to answer her questions, but she just didn't have all the information to answer each of them to the full extent they needed and deserved. This frustrated her to no end, but she knew when to quit. She needed to get back to studying for her other subjects. She kept the notebook in her bedside table though, ready to write in at even the slightest suggestion of a similar murder. At the end of it, she had concluded that it must have been a strong sorcerer or sorceress that killed Kenneth in the same way as a Hunter to cause hysteria. Why they had wanted to get the sorcerers in school riled up, Mia didn't know.
The mystery wasn't solved. So, the earth sorceress kept it in mind. She would often think of something new that she would think was maybe a breakthrough, but it would always fall just short. The rate of these 'breakthroughs' would slow and slow, until there wasn't any more, and by the time the school was going to Banff she hadn't touched the notebook for two weeks.
Sure, it was fun to go to Banff, but that wasn't the main reason Mia went. She got on the Orniormabichu after a lot of other people, so seating was a bit more scarce. She took a seat next to a boy with dark hair and purple eyes. "Sorry if you were saving this seat for anyone," she said quickly, dropping her messenger bag to the ground. She looked at the boy, recognising him pretty quick after that. He had a weird name that she couldn't remember just then, and he was a transfer student from...somewhere, she was pretty sure.
