Yes, this is a new version of my old story The Return. I am starting over, giving a whole new plot and stuff. I don't expect a lot of reviews right now but hopefully I will get some later. Reviews encourage me you know!
Normal POV
A scratchy, screeching noise rang out through the high school. Students needed to cover their ears to prevent brain damage.
"Sorry about that," said a jittery voice over the loud speaker, "Wires aren't working here in the office but at any rate, I have some very important news to share with you." By that time, all of the teens in the school removed their hands from their head and listened closely to see what news the principal has that is more important then socializing.
"As you all know, due to a major plumbing problem in the area, this section of France is evacuating the country. We have debated where to send you students. After William, one of your peers, mentioned that his cousin's school in England has enough dorms for us all, we have decided to transfer you to Jackson High for a semester."
"Yes! England!" a blond boy exclaimed. "You do you, next to Japan; England is one of the most advanced countries in the world in technology! I could learn so much there! Maybe I will become so smart, we will finally be able to defeat xana!"
His friends stared at him in confusion. "Umm Jeremie," replied a brunette guy, "how can you think about learning at a time like this? Didn't you hear, we aren't having school for a whole year!"
The principal began to speak again. "Even though you won't be in the same school or having the same professors, that doesn't mean you won't be learning. Jackson High is a brand new school with plenty of teachers to well, teach you. Plus I hear Jackson High has a high tech cooking facility which means a variety of foods for you to consume."
Now it was the second blond boy's turn to speak. "OH YEAH! There's more food! I used to think there was a lot of food here but sure was I wrong! Food food food food food!"
"Odd, when will you ever stop obsessing over food?" a japanese girl asked.
The blond smiled and replied "Nope, never." He was about to say something else but the principal cut him off yet again.
"Now don't forget that the plane leaves tomorrow at noon. The airport is 3 hours away and the plane ride is 4 hours. I suggest you pack up tonight and set your alarms for 7 am. Breakfast will be served to you on the bus to the airport. Also on the bus, you will be given a plane buddy you are to ride with. Please, no complaining about your buddy."
"I already know Ulrich will be my buddy! Isn't that that right ol' buddy ol' pal?" Odd said jokingly. He laughed at his own joke.
"Well, we best get off to bed. We have a big day tomorrow," Aelita stated. Her friends all agreed and nodded as the set off to their dorms.
The Next Day
Odd POV
Beep beep beep beep; my alarm clock set off. "Ugh, seven already?" I mumbled to myself. I slammed the alarm off and groggily sat up from my bed. Making sure Ulrich wasn't up, I crept into the bathroom and quickly fixed up my hair. Nobody must see me with my hair down, not a single soul. After making sure every stand of hair was up I jumped onto Ulrich's bed forcing him to get up.
"Jesus Odd! Do you have to do that every day!" he exclaimed. It was obvious he was cranky and a bit agitated.
"Just get up, I think Yumi is waiting for you." He blushed then shot right out of bed and into the bathroom.
"Well why didn't you say so! We can't keep her waiting!" I smiled. Ulrich had a huge case of school boy crush and if he didn't get it together he was going to lose Yumi too soon.
He came rushing out of the shower with sopping wet hair but he was fully dressed in his usual attire. I never knew it was possible for somebody to get clean that quickly. But at any rate, he grabbed our bags and then yanked me out the door.
Normal POV
"You guys are late," Jeremie grumbled. Ulrich and Odd had just arrived in the nick of time. The buses were just arriving at school. He then began to ramble off the gang's plane buddies.
"Ok Ulrich, I am your plane buddy. Yumi is with Aelita, and Odd is with William." He winced waiting to here Odds reply about not sitting with Ulrich but Odd was cut off instantaneously by Jim.
"Every body get with your buddy right now! The buses will be leaving soon and we want you stay with your partner to make it easier to keep track of you. Principal's orders." Hastily, all of the students met up with their partners and boarded the buses. The gang, plus William, all boarded the same bus of course. They received their breakfasts that consisted of eggs, bacon, sausage, and cheese on a bagel. Everyone wolfed their food down except for a girl named Angel who was a vegetarian; she gave her breakfast to Odd.
"How can you eat so much and never get fat?" asked the nurse while pinching the blonde's arm.
Odd replied by saying "I work out a lot," but not before making sure plenty of girls were watching. He smiled seductively causing some of the freshmen to swoon.
"Typical Odd," Ulrich groaned. "If he keeps this up, we are going to have one heck of a year!"
"Oh my gosh!" exclaimed a dirty blond girl wearing a pink hoodie. "Look out the window, an airplane just flew by over head!"
"Yeah!" a girl next to her exclaimed. "We must be close to the terminal!" Everybody on the bus hastily ran over to the left windows to look at the delta jet that just glided into the clear blue sky. They all hoped somebody on the plane would see the bus and all of the students with there faces pressed against the glass and wave back.
"Yoo-hoo! Over here, look over here buddy!" Odd cried out while waving his arms uncontrollably. Grinning the widest he could, he flashed off his perfect white teeth hoping they would attract a passenger.
"As much as I hate to spoil it, it is pretty unlikely that somebody riding the plane will actually be able to see you, let alone be looking out the window," Jeremie stated bluntly.
"Such a kill joy," the other blond stated back. He continued to press his nose against the glass unaware of the idiotic looking faces he was making. "They would love to look at such a handsome man."
"Students, grab you luggage and place it on this conveyer belt. Don't put it on any other or, doh, ooh! Harold!" An oblivious sophomore just flung his luggage on the neighboring belt. "Sorry kid but your bags are on the plane to Peru," the principal said sadly while placing his pudgy hand on Harold's stringy shoulder. "If you got any Euros on you, you can maybe buy some more clothes in England."
Suddenly, the loud speaker in the terminal announced for the students of Kadic High to get their tickets checked and go on the plane through Gate 5.
"Come along students!" the professors hollered to gather the herd of teens safely onto the plane. After five students were rejected and three others stepped aboard the wrong aircraft, all of the students were safely on the plane headed England.
"Please fasten your seatbelts for we are taking lift off," the pilot with a strange Russian accent rambled into the microphone. His voice echoed throughout the plane. Any body in their right mind would definitely follow his orders because he had a voice as commanding as an army general's. Hastily the seatbelt were buckled. You could hear the clicking through out the airplane.
Once the plane was in the air, the button on the ceiling blinked showing that the passengers would be able to take of their seatbelts. One boy shouted out "Finally!" as he scurried off to the nearest bathroom which was at the rear off the plane.
Odd was getting bored so he turned to the black haired guy sitting next to him. "So, who do you think is the guy that has the cousin in Jackson?"
His partner quickly turned his head to face Odd. "Well, that was me," William replied bluntly.
Odd's mouth dropped in surprise. "I would have never guess, really and truly!"
"It was my cousin's idea really, we haven't seen each other in such a long time to she.." William went to talk more but he was cut off by Odd.
"What is you cousin like? Does she have any friends?" the blond questioned.
William laughed. "You are the same way as me, loving the ladies. Well first off, she is really short, about our age, and a brunette. She has these big brown eyes and freckles. Even without her looks she is a super nice person who cares about you. You can share smiles, tears, and almost anything! Even advice on dates, how do you think I actually got a girl to go out with me?"
Odd laughed and replied "Keep going."
"Also, my cousin has very close friends to her. One is Alana. From pictures, Alana is a super hot Asian girl with a smile I almost melted in. She has this wavy black hair and highlights of brown and burgundy. A really sweet personality too.
Hannah is next. She is this really cute and hyper Indian girl. I personally think Terra, my cousin, would be a couch potato is she didn't have Hannah around to get her out more." William smiled then said, "That's her gang and all of her friends. So what do you think?"
Odd replied by saying, "Alana sound the cutest. I'll go for her first"
"Ok passengers, we are now passing over the French boarder line. We still have a long way to so you may lay on your pillows and blankets my attendants are passing out and take a snooze."
"That's the cue for me. See you in England Odd" William muttered before drifting off.
"Oh my gosh Ulrich look out side!" Yumi shouted while pointing out the window in the airport. "You can see Big Ben!"
"Wow, I always wanted to see it in person!" the brunette replied. "I am so glad Jackson High is in London. This whole town would be our campus!"
"I'm so glad I can see my cousin again." William exclaimed.
Just then, a brunette girl of about sixteen hollered over to where the gang was standing. "WILLAIM!" she hollered. She quickly caught up to him and engulfed him in a bear hug. "I am so happy to see you! It's been such a long time!" Once she let go of William, he began to introduce his friends. "I missed you too Ter! I have made some friends ever since I moved to France." He turned to the gang and introduced them to Terra. "The pink hair girl is Aelita, the blond next to her is Jeremie, the Japanese girl is Yumi, the brunette is Ulrich and then the blond over there is Odd."
It was love at first site for Terra. This blond guy Odd was definitely the guy of her dreams. He was muscular, tall, had eyes to kill and the coolest hair. She was determined to become his friend.
To Odd it was the same. Terra was a cute and bubbly girl with a smile that made his knees get wobbly. Unlike most girls, she had short choppy hair in two pigtails. She also had long bangs that were dyed green in contrast to her dark brown hair. He decided he was going to crush on her even if she wasn't a sweet girl.
Terra smiled at Odd "Hey there." She then turned around and faced her friends. She introduced them as Alana and Hannah. The smiled kindly at the rest of the gang.
Just like how Odd got a case of wobbly knees, William fell into a trance as he looked into Alana's eyes. A chill ran up his spine since he knew she was thinking the same as him; what a hottie.
"Umm hello, earth to Alana! We need to get our new friends to Jackson. You know Diana will flip if we aren't back in time!"
"Oh right," the Chinese muttered. She looked back at William and said "Hurry up, or we might miss the buses!"
