Charter 1: Into a portal of time
The cold wet air wavered over Celtic school for girls! Zoe smiled to herself as she fallowed the crowd to the dorms. She had lived in Scotland now for six years. Her dreams of her old home and her family seemed so far away. She had left her home at the end of the school year between 5th and 6th grade. She was forced to put her old buddies behind her and the digital world also. It seemed like yesterday, when she walked home with Takuya and father had told her of her new life in Scotland and at the school for girls. He had claimed that she would be happy and told her she would have two weeks to tell he best friends and finish the school year.
Those two weeks flew by in what seemed like seconds. She spent every free moment with her best buddies. She would miss them the most for they were the ones who had taught her what real friendship was. Takuya seemed the most to miss her, he hated losing things, and Zoe was no exception. All of them felt the emptiness, even Koji who never really got close in the first place, now claiming that he knew this would happen.
She left during the last day of school, so her buddies could not come to the airport but they promised to email and call. Over two years, they kept that promise but soon the things that connected them changed and new things came into their lives. So Zoe now sat in her dorm room, looking at the blank screen and deciding to come visit for the holiday, her parents. She knew the public school would not be done and the fall festival would be happening and she wanted to go.
So, she finished her quarter with High honors, and waved to her buddies that were staying at Celtic school for girls that thanksgiving. She boarded the plane for home and landed with no problems. She had to rent a car, knowing her parents they would not have anything ready. So she headed toward the fall festival. The weather at home was very different then Scotland and she loved it. The fall leaves where actually falling and there was a light breeze in the air. The car was parked and Zoe got out of it. She wore plain blue jeans, a white t-shirt and a jean jacket. She also had her hair in a high ponytail and a vintage bag. She really hoped Takuya or Tommy would be at the festival. Knowing Tommy, he would be there. Zoe headed toward the Information Booth. A tall brown haired girl about her age, slung partly on the chair, and legs propped up on the booth counter, seemed freakish. Zoe banged the counter. The girl shot up full fight in a second. Her gazes on Zoe and smile huge. "May I help you?" the girl asked leaning on the counter. "Yea, I guess you could, I'm looking for a guy about our height (I think), blue eyes, and shaggy brown hair and his name is Takuya?" Zoe answered. "My name is Kitty, Yeah I know Takuya really well, and I'm his girlfriend! I have been that for 5 years now." she said. "Well, my name is Zoey, People call me Zoe thou. I knew Takaya in 5th grade and then I moved to Scotland. " Zoe said.
Zoe then explained everything to Kitty her new friend. Kitty was enjoying the whole story and she loved the special details of Takuya before they knew each other. Kitty was shifting foot to foot when she explained the story of Takuya and her. Kitty finally stopped short and said, "Lets go see him! He's working at the soccer booth! Its my break anyways so lets go."
Zoe nodded and fallowed the tall brown haired girl. The two girls walked one behind the other. They reached the soccer booth but know one was in sight. Kitty signed and counted 5 seconds on her fingers. A figure jumped out of the bushes and tackled Kitty. Kitty hit the ground giggling to no end. Takuya smiled down at her and kissed her and then helped her up.
He swung around to find a huge smile amid at him. He backed off once and then focused on the tall blond haired girl. Kitty realized they didn't recognize each other and she jumped at the opportunity. "Takuya this is Zoey your old friend, I think?" she said a little nervously. Takuya eyes went to wide force and he grabbed Zoe and hugged her. She seemed shocked at his actions.
"Takuya let go of me! You're going to squish me to death." She rasped. Takuya let go at once and smiled down at her. He was 6'2 and good looking from the days in 5th grade when he was skinny and mid tall. (5'8) Zoe backed away and said," Kitty was telling me about this diner that you guys hang out with this crew of friends?"
"Yea, the crew is still the same Zoe! They are JP, Kouchi, Tommy, Kitty, myself and Koji (Sometimes)! Tommy's got a girl but she doesn't like us much, same for JP!" he said with a grin.
"Were headed there now, you want to come? I mean if you're not busy!" he asked Zoe nodded, "Wild horses couldn't stop me!" and fallowed Takuya to the diner with Kitty. Kitty and Takuya were linked arms and Zoe stayed in the back. The diner was packed but a guy Takuya's age nodded to him and showed them to a table of people who were already in the middle of eating. A younger boy shoved his head up from his plate and looked at Takuya! "Your Late again and you forgot my space pen too?"
Takuya nodded and pulled a chair out for Kitty. In those few moments Zoe recognized some of the people. The younger boy had to be Tommy, A bulked up guy next to him who was gabbling up food had to be JP, the one next to him was shorter and had jet black hair that was cropped, it had to be Kouchi, in the corner a boy who looked like Kouchi with long hair pulled back had to be Koji. That was all who were sitting. Takuya smiled and finally moved towards her. "Hey guys, this is someone I hope you remember!" Three out of the four guys shot their heads up. JP went bugged eyed and shoved the chair back and gave Zoe a bear hug. Tommy stopped chatting with Kitty and shot up too. Kouchi was on his feet and smiled. Koji didn't look up from his coke. Zoe smiled after their hugs and sat next to Koji. They talked for what seemed for hours until, Takuya looked at his watch. "Shoot it's six! I am so dead! Kitty we got to get you home and ready for our date." Takuya waved to everyone and hugged Zoe, Come by tomorrow K?" he asked. "Sure thing Takuya!" she said.
Soon everyone slowly said farewell until Koji, Kouchi and Zoe were left. Zoe leaned against the wall, cup of black coffee in her hand and smile on her lips. Kouchi loved seeing her so happy. Koji who was normally icy was warming every moment he was with her. Zoe finally said she had to go home and see her parents. Kouchi nodded an said, "Why don't you have my little brother drive you home!' Zoe looked up at Koji, his face showed no feeling, and he really was a diamond in the ruff. She had always respected him and this helped him in the long run. Their dreams when they were younger were never the same. She had always wanted to be a somebody; he wanted to stay a nobody. That car drive to her parent's house would change her whole life forever!
