ENCOUNTER 1

"Ms Cagalli, please remember to head to Heliopolis for a press conference after school, and to head to the studio for poster-taking on your upcoming movie after that. Oh yeah, I almost forgot! Chairman said that he wants to see you tonight..." the man on the passenger seat at the front of the car ranted on and on.

Cagalli is getting pissed. She has finally agreed to her father's request to take up a tiny job in the holidays – in the showbiz. Right now, she still felt that her father is wrong in the "stressful society" he wants her to experience. Firstly, she is only sixteen! Yeah, it's true that many teens enter the entertainment industry to earn some fame and pocket money. But she isn't those materialistic girls. She just wants a normal and quiet life, that's all. Anyways, she doesn't need the money. Her father, Sir Uzumi Nala Attha, is the Head of State of Orb, which makes him the richest and the one with the most power in the country. And obviously, her father's money belongs to her (or so she thinks). She really hates the attention and the dresses she is forced to wear!

Finally! She thought. The school is just around the corner. She has been looking forward to the start of school at Junius Seven High School (JS High). Despite her prestigious background, she does not attend private schools like the other rich kids. Apparently, Uzumi thought that she should experience the life of a normal kid. Cagalli smirked. Well! That's the only thing she seems to agree with Uzumi on. The fun part is, nobody in the school knew she was a princess, nor they knew that she has a twin brother in the school. But that did not stop the attention she gets. She is still a little famous, being a teen star and all.

Before the car even came to a stop, Cagalli jumped out almost immediately. Someone was waiting for her at the gate.

"KIRAAAAAA! My baby brother, I miss youuuuuuu!" She screamed at the top of her lungs, and jumped forward to hug Kira.

"Cagalli, it's only been a day. AND how many times must I tell you, I'M THE OLDER ONE!" Kira's face went red. Doesn't Cagalli know how embarrassing she is behaving? He observed her for a moment. "Hey, have you put on weight? You're heavy."

...Silence.

"Kira. What. Did. You. Just. SAY?"

As they were having fun arguing (somehow), they did not realize that someone was spying on them and taking notes from the pillar behind them. "Hmm, how interesting! It's going to work out fine this time!" the girl with short brown hair mumbled to herself. After taking a few more pictures of the twins, she ran off into the crowd as the bell that signaled for the start of school rang.


"Awww you're going off again?" Kira sighed. It's already been 2 weeks! Cagalli seem to get busier and busier with her job. And she's looking more and more tired by the days. Cagalli looked sorry. "Kira, you know I've got no choice..." She thought for a while, then looked up at Kira excitedly. "Why not... You come over tonight? Father said that he wants to see me... So let's have dinner together! Maybe you could even stay over tonight!" Kira sighed for the nth time. Finally, he nodded.

Cagalli was tired. Really tired. She entered the door and looked at the huge walkway of her house. It was boring indeed. The only people living in the house are her father, herself, and the maids who took care of the house. Has Kira arrived? She thought. Then she fasten her pace. She really really look forward to catching up with him!

When she entered the living room, she heard a familiar voice. "Isn't it too soon?" It's Kira. The conversation stopped when she came into view. She met the serious eyes of her father and the shocked Kira who was sitting opposite her father. They looked like they had been discussing about something. "What... happened?" she sounded meek suddenly. The atmosphere doesn't look good and she grew afraid all of a sudden. "Cagalli... It's nothing. Let's have dinner then." Uzumi forced a smile and gestured both Cagalli and Kira to the dining table. Cagalli eyed Kira. He was still in shock. He met her gaze and turned away. Something MUST have happened. And from the looks of it, none of them are willing to let her in on it.

Cagalli was curious. Throughout the dinner she eyed the both of them suspiciously. "Cagalli, stop that and eat your dinner." Uzumi finally broke the silence. Cagalli put her utensils down. "Not till you tell me what you guys were talking about!"

"Political matters." Uzumi said. "Someone like you would never understand."

Fine, Cagalli thought. Just you wait. I'm definitely going to find out what it is!


"Oh father, must I do this? This is a complete waste of time! I hate girls! They are so whiny and disgusting!" the blue haired coordinator shuddered as he thought of the million fan girls he has. He's like, the hottest star around and all the girls idolize him. He smiled in satisfaction. It's really troublesome to be popular, he thought. He loves the attention. But he just hate girls!

"Athrun." Patrick Zala opened his mouth to speak. He looked up from his office table and stare straight into Athrun's emerald orbs. "Stop being such a spoilsport! The world doesn't revolve around you and you are not going to like everything you encounter. That's life. And it's time you learn to respect others and stop complaining."

Athrun is dumbfounded. Geez, he thought. Since young, whatever he wants, he gets it, and nobody could stop him. It has become quite a habit and Patrick Zala has finally started to notice too. His son needs to change. Otherwise, what would become of PLANT if it were to have such a leader in the near future? On television, his son seems so gentlemanly and caring which earned him millions of fans. He, of course, knew that it was just a façade. The real Athrun Zala is far from that. He is cold, unwavering, uncaring and proud. He is confident about all his attributes. From his looks to his body, he thought he was perfect. Patrick Zala sighed. "Alright, say no more. You're transferring to JS High and that's final." He looked down back at his documents. "I've got things to do. Now excuse yourself."

Athrun rose and left the room with a huge envelope. He pulled out the contents inside. "Cagalli Yula Attha... Princess of Orb." He thought she looked familiar. He stopped in his tracks. Wait a minute... Wasn't she the one who debuted for only two months and is slowly rising to fame? She's the girl who's going to co-star with him in the upcoming movie! He has never met her before, but still. Athrun chuckled. This is going to be fun... Or so he hoped.


Athrun yawned. He was TIRED. Gosh, he never did have to wake up at dawn (6am) for school. In his previous private school, he attended the afternoon lessons so that he could sleep longer. It has better be worth it! He yawned again as he entered the administrative office to get his new schedule. He was, after all, a new student.

"Ahhh! Athrun? Athrun ZALA? Oh dear. Sit down!" The office lady exclaimed. It sure pays to be famous! Athrun flashed his signature smile. No girls, even up till this day, could ever resist that charming smile of his. "Yea thank you, Ms...?" "ALLSTER! Fllay Allster! OMG I can't believe it's you! It's really you! I thought it was a rumour..." The office clerk smiled brightly. "Here you go Mr Zala! Your schedule... If you have any problems you can approach me! No, I mean... You MUST approach me!" "Thanks!" Athrun turned asnd roll his eyes. Sheesh, Athrun thought. Girls... As crazy as ever. But having fan girls all around the school will definitely help. At least he won't have to be... A LONER.

The moment he stepped out of the office, he saw a black limo stopped outside the office. A couple of boys and girls stepped out of the car. "Gee, this is going to be as boring as ever." The girl with short, dark pink hair sighed. As her eyes met Athrun, she stunned there, momentarily. "OHHMYYGAWD. YOU!" Athrun was shocked. Now that was rude. Who points straight at a stranger like that? "Athrun? Athrun Zala? Wow... " the girl with red ponytails exclaimed. The other 2 guys just looked at him sleepily. "Heyy. You're famous right?" one of the guys said. Athrun nodded. "I suppose... You could say that." Athrun replied politely. He knew that first impressions are the most important. "Great. Now you're one of us. I'm shinn." He gestured to the others. "This is Rey, that girl is Lunamaria. And that, is her younger sister."

"Hi I'm Meyrin! Meyrin... Hawke." Lunamaria caught her sister blushing. Is this what people call... Love at first sight? She smiled. "So you're one of us?" She asked Athrun. Athrun thought for a moment. Well, they looked like they're popular, and he didn't really want to spend his first day alone. "I guess you could say that." He smiled again. Now THAT is cool, thought Meyrin. She grabbed the schedule sheet Athrun is holding. "English, Math... EEEK! You're having most of your classes with us!" She shrieked. "Let's go to class TOGETHER!"


"Hey KIRA! Just TELL ME ALREADY! You know I'm going to keep bothering you till YOU TELL ME WHAT'S GOING ON!" Cagalli practically screamed into Kira's ear. A group of guys whistled to Cagalli. Kira glared at them. He is kind of overprotective of his sister. "KIRAAA!" Cagalli prompted. Kira just kept mum. "Cagalli, I really can't tell you! I'm gonna get killed..." Another guy came up to Cagalli in the hallway. He began, "Ms Cagalli, I've been interested in you ever since..." "BUZ OFF DUDE. Can't you see I'm busy here? Now... Ahh!" Cagalli cringed in pain. "Don't you know how to walk proper.." She stopped as she look up and saw the famous Athrun whom everyone is going crazy over. "CHH. A celebrity? No wonder. Don't be so cocky just because you're famous and watch where you are going!" Cagalli blurted and as she stomp off furiously. Kira faced Athrun. "Erm, actually, she meant to say sorry... HEY CAGALLI WAIT FOR ME!" Kira turned and chased after Cagalli. Athrun smiled looked at the angry girl with interest. "Athrun, ignore her, she's such a b.i.t.c.h. I don't understand what the guys see in her at all. She's so arrogant, stubborn, rude, and..." Meyrin stopped as her gaze falls on Athrun's face. Wait a minute... Is he SMILING? Jealousy rose within her. That slut... She's so gonna pay for seducing MY Athrun! She thought as she clench her fist.

"Cagalli! SLOW DOWN WILL YA?" Kira was practically panting. His sister could sure run. He look at the distance between them. He can't catch up at this rate! However, something caught his attention and he stopped short. It's a picture of them on the notice board on the walkway. Is this... the school's paper?
