Nothing happened on the day they arrived. Alex’s group went to the main building, a large structure in the center that was shaped like a Colosseum, and had dinner with all of the other students. While they were eating, the vice-principal, who was in charge of the field trip, delivered several rules that they were to abide by while on this trip.

Students could not go anywhere without a teacher or chaperone, which meant all of the students had to stick together. No one could go off on their own. Other than that, they were free to move anywhere within the resort. However, they had to check in once every hour using their IDbands. Furthermore, dinner was served at 1800 hours. Regardless of where they were at any given time, they had to meet up at the dining hall in the main room at that time.

Outside of the traditional rules, the vice-principal, who was an older gentleman with a strangely leering gaze, told them that several events would be held for the ninth grade classes. These events would happen after dinner each night. He didn’t say anything else, only stating that they should look forward to the events.

Participation was required.

After dinner was over, everyone was allowed to explore the grounds as they pleased, or remain in their rooms. They were not allowed to go to the beach that day. However, there were plenty of other things to do.

Mars Beach Resort was divided into two zones: the resort and the city. Of course, to call this place a city was a gross overstatement. There were only one or two hundred buildings, many of which lacked the amenities and architectural style of modern-day structures, and they were spaced incredibly far apart. What’s more, there were no warp pads. People had to walk everywhere or rent hoverboards.

It was terribly inconvenient.

“This is so nice,” Alice sighed. “It’s like having my own personal shuttle.”

“So I’m a speeder now, am I?” Alex asked.

“Yes.”

His group was exploring the resort grounds, wandering along the many yellow brick pathways. As the boys ran up ahead, the girls hung back with Alex, who could’ve sworn he saw Jasmine giving Alice envious glances. He didn’t think she wanted to be carried piggyback like his sister, but perhaps she would have appreciated being carried like a bride.

Well, he already had one girl using him as transportation. He didn’t want to add another.

Alex turned to Ariel and Michelle. They were walking alongside him. Ariel was closer, and she’d occasionally glance in his direction, but she turned away whenever she noticed that he had seen her. Michelle simply wore the same amused smile as always.

“What do you two think so far?” he asked.

Since Ariel and Michelle, like their older sister, had never been allowed out of the palace until their timely escape, Alex wanted to know their opinions. If he knew what they thought, he could plan the best ways for them to experience more of the amazing sites and activities that this resort had to offer.
