Desmond awoke to a suffocating ammonia scent filling his pod. His bloodshot eyes shot open as he lunged out of his rack. Forgetting he slept on the top bunk, Desmond flew face first, crashing down to the floor. He grunted as he stood up, glancing around at all of the other pods. Thankfully he wasn't the only one who had been apparently gassed. "Toxic mist?" Desmond thought to himself as he noticed the empty bunk beneath his. Desmond could only assume it belonged to the older student yelling at the rest to get up and ready. "Are they trying to kill us?" Desmond asked as he rubbed the sleep from his eyes. Desmond quickly made his way to remove the ugly mustard colored uniform from his dresser. "As if today couldn't get any worse," He mumbled to himself, examining the yellow jacket. As he picked the uniform out from his dresser he noticed a bracelet sitting on top of the neatly folded clothes along with a weird looking mouth piece. He figured they wanted him to use this cleaning device over his toothbrush because it was the only thing next to his snacks that was missing from his bag. Rolling his eyes he continued to the showers with his uniform and new accessories in hand.
Desmond watched as other students put the mouthpiece in, clicking the button to activate the cleansing. He did the same, stripping down, he put his bracelet on and entered the showers. After a quick hydrating shower Desmond exited and dried off with his towel. He removed the mouthpiece, got dressed and put his sweats back into his dresser. Desmond stood next to his rack awaiting orders as to where he should go next.
