"The Transfers"

Chapter 1: Introduction

            Reiji Kageyama sat on his chair. He leaned back, putting his feet on the desk, near the keyboard. He took off his shades, letting it dangle on the tip of his fingers. His eyes began to be heavy, and he fell asleep, getting his long-waited, appreciated nap.

            Soon, a beep-like sound came from the computer. Reiji quickly woke up and sat up straight as he read a notice, informing him he had one new mail. Double-clicking the file that had the mail, it opened, and read:

            Dear Head of AEGIS Far East Network,

            After surveying what happened in Tokyo a few weeks ago, we have decided that we will transfer four of our best Gatekeepers to Japan to assist you, so such as event as what happened will not ever happen again. They will stay under your guidance and live in Japan until further notice. Please do not be afraid of them, they will be on their best behavior on their stay. They are a talented group of teenagers and Gatekeepers, since all of them are aces. I hope you will find them useful and stay in Japan at this time.

                                                                                                Jun Thunders

                                                            Head of the AEGIS Northeast Branch

(A/N: I know you're going to yell at me, but I haven't seen the original Gatekeepers series!)

            After reading, Reiji picked up his cellular phone. On his directory, were Ayane's, Miu's, and Satoka's phone numbers. He began to call Ayane's first. "The girls need to know this," he thought.

*                                  *                                  *

            Ayane and Miu sat in a couch together; waiting for Reiji's exiting news. As much as Miu was exited, Ayane was anxious. Satoka stood far away from them, leaning on one of the windows. "I wonder what Kageyama-san's going to tell us," Miu said. "It's so exiting! Maybe there's no more Invaders, or he's going on a vacation and," "Miu, he's going to tell us," Ayane interrupted. "Soon."

            Soon, Reiji stood in front of them. "I called each of you, because I have some very great news which is going to affect you greatly," Reiji began.

            "There are no more Invaders?" Ayane asked, frightened, because she thought what was so interesting for her was now going to end.

            "You're getting married?" Miu guessed, now happy that Reiji was going to get a love in his life.

            "You're getting fired?" Satoka guessed. Maybe she wanted this to be over, since he was the reason she was working for him and was rivals with Ayane.

            Everyone looked at Satoka. "No, Satoka, not that," Reiji told her. He turned to all the girls again. "I have received a note from the head of the AEGIS Northeast branch," he began. "They have looked over our situation a few weeks ago. They have decided," he cleared his throat, "that they will transfer four of their Gatekeepers to this branch, as reinforcements."

            Miu's eyes were full of stars as she was delighted in the fact that more people were able to help. Ayane looked at Reiji in disgust and began to search for the transfers' names, plus their files. Satoka's jaw dropped mouth wide open. A fly settled on her lip.

            "Reinforcements?!?!?!" Ayane and Satoka asked, raising their voices, in unison. "That's great! The more people to help us fight, the more fun there is!" Miu cheerfully said. "Of course, we do need the help, it has been reported that you are the only Gatekeepers in Japan," Reiji informed, "Of course, in this proximity." Ayane scanned the four names: Marisa Nichols, Josh Christian, William Thunders, and Mina Zheng. She also looked at their files. To her, two looked like punks from the street, one looked like a Trekkie, and one looked…and to her liking, normal. "When will they come?" Miu asked. "If things turn out smoothly, they'll arrive here tomorrow," Reiji answered. 

            "They are very talented, girls," Reiji told them. "What about us? Aren't we talented also, Kageyama-san?" Ayane asked, suspicious. "Yeah, aren't we talented like the other Gatekeepers also?" Miu asked. "All of you girls are very talented as well," he answered.

            "Well, I guess it's time to go," Satoka said as she saw the orange-red sun sink gradually into the horizon. Taking her bag, she then left. Miu and Ayane followed. "Don't overwork yourselves girls," Reiji called. "We won't! Bye!" Miu said, but Ayane and Satoka left, without a word to say. When the door closed, Reiji sighed, and began to go back to work.

Okay, I know it sounds like another person's fan fiction (It's titled: "Gatekeepers 21: Unknown Variables". You'll really enjoy it. I forgot the author's name, though), but I really need it to start it off. I can't just go and just start when the new kids arrive. But, who are the new kids (I just revealed the names) are going to be, which Gates do they have, and what do they look like? Find out in the next chapter: "The New Kids on the Block"! If you want to guess or have a hunch which ones look like punks, which one looks like a Trekkie, and which one looks normal, feel free to put it in your review (if you're going to). And if you're going to flame me, don't even think about it! I'm sure if you have registered already, you don't want flamers wanting to flame your story (I saw a flamer's story the other day, and let me tell you, it's a bunch of crap! And when I went to review, the guy doesn't want any anon. reviews! That means the guy doesn't want any flamers flaming his story, but he flames! Don't be like that person folks!), so don't even think about it! I have a person in mind that's going to bash you if you do!

To review: Look at the very bottom of this page. You see on the left a box saying "Submit Review", a button next to it titled "Go". On the right, you know that, there's a bow telling you which chapter you're on with a button next to it with an arrow on it. You click the button titled "Go" to review, and a form pops-up. To review, you need: Name, E-mail address, and your review. Let me remind you, positive reviews (that helps your self-esteem and give you the confidence to write more), constructive reviews (that help the story become better. I'll appreciate your suggestions. If you say, "I'd be better if you don't write this at all…etc." don't do that, I'll just delete it, and it doesn't make sense, because, the story's there. You can't change that) are accepted. Flames…aren't! (No duh!) See, simple as that. Now, review!
