It was a warm afternoon and the sun is shining brightly. The South Harbor University of Technology was busy accepting enrollees for its 2nd Semester. The lines were long and the students were really patient waiting for their names to be called. Meanwhile, in the VIP building, Ash Veara was waiting for his papers to be processed. He was with other students who were rich and also famous. All of them were shocked when someone new entered. All of them looked at her and some were mesmerized. She was the daughter of the famous owner of a recording company. She was Claudette Bridges, the only daughter of Albert Brdiges.Ash Veara was busy talking to his friends on the phone, then suddenly Claudette slipped and fell in front of him. Her things were scattered on the floor and Ash was surprised. Without a second thought, he helped her gather her things and helped her get up. Claudette stood up and apologized to Ash "Sorry, I bothered you. I didn't mean that". "It's ok. I see you're new here" said Ash with a soft tone. "Yeah, and I'm kinda nervous 'cause I have no friends here and I know no one" Claudette told Ash sadly. "Hey don't worry. I'll be your first friend here and you don't need to be nervous" Ash assured Claudette. "Thank You! Wow, now I'm not afraid". The other students were looking at them and the guys were jealous. "I'm Ash Veara by the way, you are?" "Oh, Claudette Bridges". Ash was looking at  her curiously. "Bridges? That rings a bell. Don't tell me you're the daughter of Albert Bridges" said Ash. "And you're Ash Veara of The 9th Star Of Ascension?" asked Claudette. "Haha. Now I have a fellow celebrity in here" ash said happily". "At least I won't be the only one people would ask for an autograph" said Claudette.After the conversation, Ash and Claudette finished their enrollment. The sun was about to set, and Ash asked Claudette if he can tour her around the campus. "Mind if I give you a tour here?" aksed Ash. "Oh that would be great, so that I can be familiar with the places and so that I would know where to go when I'm not with you as my guide" Claudette said happily. The two walked all over the campus, Ash was really giving his best in guiding Claudette through the school. "Wow, you really know everything here" Claudette said. "Yeah, I always go around the campus when I'm not busy. Let's go to my special place" Ash said then grabbed Claudette's hand. "Your special place? I never knew rockers have those" Claudette said. "Haha! Well not most of us are like the ones you usually know." Ash replied. All of a sudden, Claudette held Ash's hands, and to his surprised he held it too without hesitation. After a short walk they reached the old fountain in the campus. It was old, and there was no water, but the view was totally awesome. "Wow! I never seen anything like this before." Claudette said. "This is the old fountain, it was built in 1984. But a tragedy happened here so since then this place was forgotten. I never knew what the tragedy was. All I know is that this fountain was very beautiful when it was still being visited and when it was still being filled with water." Ash replied.
