Daily task : complete

Cal woke up the next morning in his bunk as he saw someone waving there hand infront of his face, it was Alina.

"What do you want..?" Cal asked, his voice hoarse, dry. He was clearly annoyed.

"I got board! So I decided to wake up up! Hehe!" Alina said with a smile, it was more of a smirk. She sounded happy, and energetic.

"It's to early for this shit.." cal said in his head, knowing that Alina could hear him if he wanted her to.

"Oh, I know, but all your dormmates are already up and about!" Alina said in a more serious voice

' They are?' Cal asked as one of his eye brows lifted up, in a questioning look.

Cal turned his head and looked around, his roommates weren't inside the room, but they were awake already. He looked displeased. As he mumbled something incoherent.

He got out of bed and lifted his arms up to stretch.

"That's a lot of information… 50 daily's just for the chance to earn one awakening point… that would take forever…."

"There are other ways! But I won't be tellin!" Alina said, chuckling.

"Time to run around like a crazy little shit.. this will be so embarrassing.." Cal shook his head.

"Hey, Alina, are the daily going to change ever single day?"

"Hm, mhm, yes they are, I set them each day. It just depends on what you need to do and what you don't, a bit of motivation in other terms" Alina said

"Anyways, open your missons tab!"

Cal nodded, opening his misson tab.

Cal gave a boy-ish smile as he got dressed after reading the page. Shaking his head as he came out of his door. Then he started jogging..

He went up and down the halls, some of the items turned to look at him, laughing. Cal was embarrassed but it didn't matter much.

After around 20 minutes of pure shame, embarrassment, and wanting to die.

Cal got a notification.

[ daily tasks : one mile has been run, part ½ has been completed. ]

[ complete part 2 of the daily tasks to complete daily 1 and obtain daily rewards]

Cal was breathing heavily, his face was full of sweat. His hair was sogy and his shirt stuck to his torso.

"How'd you enjoy your run..?" Alina said with a wry smile

'I hated it.' Cal though, making sure Alina could hear his thoughts.

"Great! I'm glad you liked it, you stink like a hoarse…" Alina said sarcastically, adding the last part in an unsurprised tone.

Cal finally caught his breath, and went to wash up and change.

When he came out of the bathroom, one fo his dorm mates, Asher was in his bed, relaxing.

"Hey." Asher said as his eyes turned to look at cal.

Cals hair was wet, he had a t-shirt on with baggy pants. His hair was slightly shiny.

"Oh, hey. Asher, right?" Cal asked as his right brow lifted in a questioning manner as he looked at Asher.

Asher got up and out of his bunk, stretching his arms out before looking at cal again and smiling. "You remembered my name, I'm surprised!"

Asher said in a happy tone. "I didn't think you'd remember, we barely talk after all!" Asher said before chuckling. He looked Cal up and down one more time.

"Cal? That's your name, right?" Asher looked at him, chuckling awkwardly.

"Mhm, that's me, Cal." Cal said he wasn't really surprised so he simply kept a calm face, his voice was calm, steady. His face was still, it showed no expression. His arms were down by his sides, palms facing his torso. His head was up, held high, and he had a straight back with his shoulders back.

"So.. your new here? Right?"

"Yeah, came here about a week ago." Cal said as his right hand was on his chin. Thinking.

"Yeah, One week sounds about right." He added.

Asher smiled at Cal. "Won't always be bad here, some people here are nice.. somewhat nice.. all you gotta do is follow the rules and they'll have no reason to do anything!"

"Thanks Asher, good to know, uh, could I call you ash? It's just easier to say, y'know?" Cal said, he didn't want to say Asher all the time, ash was just shorter, and much more simple to say.

"Oh, sure! I'm glad to help, and I don't mind, a lot of people call me ash!" Asher said with a bright smile.

"So, what you wanna do, I have some free time thankfully." Asher said as he sat down on one of the bunks, the one across from cal.

Cal sat down on a bunk to, it was his own bunk though.

"Huh? Eh, I'm not really doing all to much, just chilling I guess."

"From what I hear, they are planning to start making you work tomorrow, so I suggest you get ready. Y'know, you might have the best or worst job to do." Ash said with a suggestive smile.

"Thanks, I'll keep that in mind for tomorrow."

'So Tomorrow, I teleport out when the doors open.. and then I keep teleporting until I'm out of here.. this will be easier then I thought it would be..' Cal though, he had his plan, now he just needed to complete it.

A ding sounded in his head.
