Tony sat down and sighed. He had a job at school that he didn't want: showing the new kid around. He didn't even know if the new kid was a boy or girl. Another, he wasn't the type that says hi to the new kid; that was more of a Sara action.

/Why do I have to do this, of all people? WHY couldn't it be Sara?/

The day had finally came. To Tony, it was his day of horror. He was horrified, because he was very shy, though many of his friends would regret that.

"Hiya, Tony!" Sara called. "Ready to show the new girl around?"

/AHHH! The new kid is a girl?! I'm nervous now.../

"Tonnnnnnnnnny!!! Didja hear meeeeee?" Sara said, waving a hand in front of his face.

"Ahhh....yea. Sorry. Where is -"

Tony was interrupted by a sprinting girl crashing into him.

"AHHHHHH!!! Whoops, sorry, 'scuse me, I'm looking for...oh, wait..."

"-she..." said a dazed Tony.

"Right here!" Sara said happily.

"Wha? Oh, hi! Sorry, one of the teachers were chasin me. Said something about not making fun of 'beautiful teachers'. If ya ask me, that green-haired witch better stay outta my way! Oh, by the way, sorry about that crash. I'm such a clutz today..."

All Tony could do was stare. He couldn't help noticing that she was really cute.

"Hey, are you Tony?" the girl asked.

"Uh, yea. And I guess you're the new girl..." Tony said.

"Yep! So, you're the one showin' me around, eh? This is some school! My last one was tiny compared to this one!" she said, amazed.

"Soooo...what's you're name?" Tony asked.

"My name is Gia! Nice ta meet ya!" she said, sticking out her hand.

Tony shook it, then started his tour. His teacher, Miss Iknow, excused him, and this was rare. Only then he realized that this was the only good thing about this. He showed her the bathrooms, the lockers, the classrooms, the cafeteria, and all the other stuff ya find in a school. Same old, same old. Last but not least, he showed her the "sacred soccer field". Tony looked at it with total admiration.

"D'you play soccer, Tony?" she asked.

"Huh? Oh, yea. Sara says I'm pretty good, but she never watches."

"Really. When's practice? I want to sign up."

"Huh? Oh yea. Try outs are...tomorrow. The only team that's open is mine..."

"Heeeey! Alright! Guess I came at the right time!"

*Yes! Finally, a sport I like! Last year we just had basketball...how do I hate it? Let me count the ways...*

/Man, she's pretty. Maybe she's as good at soccer as I am!/

As they walked back to class, they were interrupted by a running Flint.

"Hiya Tony! Who's that?" he asked.

"Er, new student..."

"Ohhhh! Well, Ms. Iknow says you're late and..."

"WHAT?! But...but she excused me! I had to show the new girl around..."

"Sorry Tony but orders are orders! By the way if you ask me Ms. Iknow reminds of Petra Fina!"

"Shhhhhh!"

"Huh? Who's Petra Fina...?" Gia asked.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh no one!" Tony said quickly.

/This is bad...this is VERY bad.../ Tony thought sullenly. /What if she finds out? Hmm...wait....a new partner would be okay, I guess.../

They walked into their teacher's room...only to find that they were an hour late.

"aHEM!!! Where have you two been?! You're an hour late and if you knew better yuo'd come an hour EARLIER!!!!" Miss Iknow said.

"But...you excused us!" Tony argued.

"Now, WHY in the WORLD would I do that?!" she yelled.

"Because I'm showing the new student around."

"Don't talk when I'm talking, brat!!!!!!!!!!!"

"Fine."

Gia's first day of school didn't turn out well. She and her teacher seemed to fight more than work. She also said something about Tony, Sara, and Flint having detention for blinking too much.

"I'm telling you, that teacher is a WITCH!!!" Gia said while cleaning the desks (there are 50 desks in the classroom). They had finished 20, but Ms. Iknow said they forgot a spot on all of them.

When they finally finished, Tony, Sara, and Gia walked out toward the soccer field. Flint managed to sneak into the cafeteria while they were still cleaning.

"Uhhhh...Gia? Can I ask you something?" Tony asked.

"You just did."

"Oooooookay. Can I ask you another?"

"You did it again!"

"Just let me ask you a question!"

"Okay."

Tony could hear Sara laughing silently.

"Ummm...what was it...damn, I forgot."

"Okay...now I'll ask you a question."

"Okay."

"Where's all the soccer balls?"

"Aha! That's what I was gonna ask!"

"Where all the soccer balls are?"

"No, no, no, of course not! I was gonna ask you if you wanted to try out first!"

"Uh, hellllloooooo!! I'm here, too!" Sara said, waving a hand in front of their faces.

"What? Do you want ot try out for my team?" Tony asked.

"No, of course not!!!!"

"THEN WHAT?!"

"We need to get back to the Time ---"

"Shut up!"

"Oh, yea..."

Tony, Sara, and Flint had to get back to the Time Bureau. Petra could be anywhere, anytime.

"Hey, I'm curious! Where ya guys goin'?" Gia asked.

"Erm ---" Sara said.

"Sara, she could be a time detecive like us!" Tony whispered to Sara. "Plus, she's pretty cute..."

"Tony, will you quit having stupid boyish fantasies?! But ya, you're right. Maybe...if she's not good, Terry could use the Memory beam on her and..."

"Okay! It's settled, she's comin! Hey, Gia! We can give you a tour of time!"

"Tony, that sounds dumb. But okay, I'll go wherever you guys are goin'." Gia replied.

They walked toward the Bureau with no interruptions.

"Hey! Uncle, we broughta guest to be a detective with us and..." Sara started, but was interrupted by the lady on the screen.

"Send the time detectives to 1934. The Great depression has started, and a little girl has found a time shifter. Petra is probably after it right now. The shifter's name is Legaia. Translated in language, it means 'happy'. The girl is happy now, though will be sad while you have to take it back."

"We're on it!" Flint said from nowhere...which happened to be on the time cycle.

"Hey! Wait for us!" Sara called after him.

Tony grasped Gia's hand and helped her onto the cycle, but she already knew how.

"Great! Where're we goin'?" she asked.

"Back in time to stop Petra Fina!" Tony replied.

"ALLLLLLLLLRIGHT! I love action..." she said.

They sped off to 1934. There were many sick people. Most were poor and homeless; others hungry and scared. Flint, Sara, Tony, Gia, Terry, Getalong, and Rocky looked on in despair. They felt bad for the people.

They spotted a girl with light blue hair playing with what seemed to be a cat...called Legaia.
