Wendy, Diane, Eppy, Tammy, Karen, Blueberry and Kit arrive at Adams Outpost and settle in to their accommodations. As they wait for the other students of Leadership School to arrive, they explore the outpost and find a place to practice gliding. The girls explore their special abilities, trying to learn the full extent of their individual abilities and the range that these abilities can be used. There are some incidents with the other residents of the outpost, particularly with the cadets that are attending the Military Academy.
