The Number Hierarchy

Lee Seng stepped into the elevator. His tail wagged around and he turned back to look at it. He began to lower it and then stepped in. He wedged himself in between Carter and Scarlet in the back. Students began to pour in, all saying their greetings to the two Numbers and taking a quick look at Lee Seng.

They tapped their floors and waited for the elevator to close. They began to talk about their days so far, any interesting gossip; which Lee Seng would've liked to indulge himself in, but stopped himself. The students seemed all to talk about what they wanted to do for today and/or anything particularly interesting like a 'mission.'
