Chapter 1 – First Day
Beeeeeeeeeeeep! Beeeeeeeeeeeep! Beeeeeeeeeeeep! Beeeeeeeeeeeep! Beeeeeeeeeeeep!
6:30 A.M.
"Yawn!" The red-haired teen stretched her arms out as the alarm clock woke her up.
She stood up, and went to the dormitory bathroom. Brushed her teeth, took a bath, changed to school uniform. Well… you know… morning routine.
It was Kairi Honoka's first day in the Twilight Island Boarding High School. She was with her twin sister, Namine. Her twin, waking up from the rays of sunlight peeping from out the window, was greeted by Kairi…
"G'morning Namine! I bet you had a good night's sleep!"
"Yeah, I was still tired from the tour around the campus yesterday…" The blonde yawned.
"Hey! We're freshmen now! Be excited!"
"I guess…"
Namine stood up and did the same morning routine.
"I can't believe it! 1st year high school…" Kairi said to herself.
When Namine was finished, both got their bags and went to their first class.
"So Science begins at 8… hmm… where is that building again?" Kairi asked.
"Hmm… 'Ven Hall' is right over there, in front of the gym!" Namine pointed at the wide, cream-colored building.
"Well, it's still early… 7:15 by my watch… how about grabbing a sandwich for breakfast?" Kairi said as she re-directed Namine's attention over to the cafeteria across the walkway.
"Sure, why not? We'll have to hurry though…"
"Chip 'n Dale's Cafeteria"
The Honoka twins saw this sign as they entered.
They rushed as Kairi and Namine bought sandwiches and rushed back to Ven Hall. Kairi forgot her bag at the table but told Namine to continue on. She got her bag and ran… until… BAM!
Kairi had run into someone and both fell down. Kairi quickly went back up and picked up her books, not minding the person she hit.
KRRRRRRRING!!!! KRRRRRRRING!!!!
"Oh am so sorr..y…" A brown-haired guy said as he looked into Kairi's face. "Oh! Let me help you!"
He helped Kairi with her books.
"No, no! It's okay! Hi, my name is Kairi." Kairi laughed.
"I'm… Sora…" He got up with Kairi's books and gave them to her.
"Thanks! Well, I must go now. Gonna be late for class!" Kairi ran off.
"Hey, wait!"
Sora was too late. He then looked at the clock tower and hesitated.
"Oh right! Class!"
7:59
……………
KRRRRRRRING!!!!!
"English 1st Year"
The class sat down and stared at the writing on the board until… the door opened.
A tall girl entered. She was observing proper posture… straight back and didn't slouch. She wrote her name on the board and turned to her students.
"Good morning freshmen! I am Ms. Jane Porter… but you can call me, Professor Jane."
"Good morning Professor Jane." The class greeted.
"Okay so, today, we will introduce ourselves. Okay then, I will start! I am Ms. Jane Porter and I come from the wor- "
Someone opens the door… seems like a late student.
"I'm sorry Ms… Jane… Porter…" Sora read her name from the board and panted because he was tired from running.
"Well, well… whoever you are, you know I observe punctuality in my class. But since this is your first day, you are excused… but the next time you are late, you will do lines for me."
"I'm sorry, it will never happen again…" Sora said as he went to his seat.
"Hey man, why are you late?" His blonde look-alike whispered to him.
"I'll tell you later…"
After a few minutes, the warning bell rang. After 5 minutes, the bell rang. The period ends.
"Hey Namine, I'll see you later okay! Good luck in social studies!" Kairi waved as she went to her Math class across the hall.
"See you! Good luck in math class!" Namine went down to the 1st floor for social studies.
"Yo Sora! Now, tell me why you were late…" Sora's blonde look-alike said as he put his arm around him.
"Well… you see…"
"Sora Hikari! Don't be late next time in my class okay? Haha! See you around!" Jane said as she peered out the door.
"Yes Professor Jane!" Sora said as he waved. "Okay so… going back… I saw this really pretty red-head! I blew it, I was too shy…"
"Whoa! MY twin? Met a GIRL? Wohoho!!"
"Shut up Roxas!" Sora glared at his twin.
"Okay, okay! Jeez! It's just a joke!" Roxas laughed.
KRRRRRRRING!!!!! KRRRRRRRING!!!!!
It was Roxas' and Sora's break… Sora went back to his dorm while Roxas came looking for his "gang".
KRRRRRRRING!!!!!
It was recess time and the students came running towards the cafeteria and the satellite one beside the library.
"Yo! Roxas! Over here!" A dirty blonde teen shouted from the cafeteria door.
"Hey Hayner! Pence! Olette! How were your first periods?"
"Ugh… I just realized Math would be so hard this year… high school really is different from elementary…" Olette let out a sigh.
"Well, we just did introductions today for English… and the 2nd year teacher was kind!" Pence said.
"Science is tougher than last year..." Hayner led the group to the cafeteria line.
"Haha! Yeah!" Pence said as he and Hayner laughed.
"So, Roxas, how was your first period?" Hayner asked.
"Sora got late in class. Hahaha!" Roxas replied.
"Really?! Why?!" Olette asked… and all of them laughed.
"Sora said he saw this pretty girl as he rushed to class."
"Pretty girl? Hmm… I wonder who that is." Hayner got his tray and waited for the rest to get their trays.
"Did Sora describe her?" Pence asked.
"Well, before we got separated, he said she had red hair…" Roxas and the group went to a table and sat down. "Well, right now, I'm not interested in her… I'm interested at HER…"
Roxas pointed at Namine who was eating her lunch outside, by herself.
"Her? Roxas, dude, she looks like the type of person who doesn't get guys." Hayner said as he put down Roxas' hand.
"Pshh… that's a stereotype… now watch me get to her…" Roxas finished his food and stood up. He looked at his friends and asked if he looked okay. They said yes… when Roxas turned his back, they held their laugh… something is wrong here.
Roxas approached Namine and tapped her by the shoulders.
"Hi there… I noticed you are sitting here all alone. I'm Roxas! What's your name?" Roxas smiled.
Namine just laughed.
"Umm, did I say something wrong?"
"No! HAHAHA!! It's just… HAHAHA!! You've got a… HAHAHAHA!!! Over there!!" Namine pointed at his teeth.
"Huh?" Roxas looked at the glass and saw his reflection. "OH NO!!!"
He covered his mouth and rushed to the bathroom. Namine just laughed. As he arrived at the bathroom, he got the piece of lettuce on his teeth.
"Stupid… salad…"
He went out and looked that Namine had left and he saw Hayner, Pence and Olette just laughing at the table. He approached them and glared at them.
"Thanks you guys. Thank you VEEEEERY much!" Roxas continued glaring.
"HAHAHAHA!! You're welcome!!" Hayner and the others kept laughing.
KRRRRRRRING!!!!! KRRRRRRRING!!!!!
The warning bell rang and Kairi went to Ven hall for her next class. She met her friend along the way; it seems they have Social Studies together. They were talking as they went in the classroom.
"How were you this summer? Sorry I didn't visit you at Destiny Islands… Namine and I were in Hollow- … I mean, Radiant Garden this summer. We had duties in the Disciplinary Committee."
"I'm fine, you know, the usual! Kairi, you know, Tidus finally said he liked me over the summer!" The two whispered.
"Aww! Selphie! Good for you!" Kairi said.
The door opened and the teacher walked in. She wrote her name both in Chinese and in English…
"Fa Mulan"
"Good morning class! This is Social Studies 1! This year we will be learning history. So, shall we begin introductions?" Mulan put her things on the table. "Okay, say your name, then mention a thing you like doing and tell what you think your good side is."
Mulan pointed at the first person infront. Her name was Fuu. Rather, silent… she said things with color... "color". For example, Fuu was asked what her good side was… she said, "Blood-stained eyes, full of emotion and even gives of emotion, people say my eyes make them terrified and at times, blissed."
See?
"What about you?" It was about time Fa Mulan pointed at Kairi. She was waiting with Selphie at the back.
"Well, my name is Kairi Honoka and I like to go out with friends. So far, Selphie over here and Tidus, now in second year are my friends."
"Ahh, Tidus… he's quite an active and… eccentric person." Fa Mulan said.
"Yeah… so, my good side… people have said that I'm flawless. Maybe my good side is my skin?" The class chuckled.
"Haha! You do Kairi, trust me, I know flawless." Fa Mulan touched her skin and just laughed with the rest of the class.
After a few minutes, the bell rang and it was time for the next period.
End of Chapter 1
WATCH OUT NEXT TIME:
Kairi: Tidus, who's that?
Tidus: He's Ansem's nephew… un-fair though, he gets away with almost anything; if he has to! He's the last person you'd expect to be in trouble. That's why people say he's perfect…
Olette: Hey guys! This is my cousin, Tyler! He's a transferee…
Sora: Hmm… what club should I join?
Roxas: What about the Loser's club? Haha! Joking…
