A/N: Finally, the start of a new story (when was the last time I took a break?). Anyway, I hope that this serves as an entertaining pilot to my re imagining. Ordinary girls, doing ordinary things, living ordinary lives, sounds ordinary. Anyway, while I think there is an over saturation of stories like this, it couldn't hurt for me to finally put one out. That said, this is a three story trilogy in the making, so don't expect the couples to get together right away, and don't expect some to stay together...I've planned many a twists and turns, but let us begin, shall we?

- Kode-Dekka

A beautiful girl, with golden hair, and lonely eyes,

that was my first thought when I saw her.

Looking at her burgundy eyes, welled up a familiar feeling in me,

and I remembered a time when that I wished I could forget.

And then, all of a sudden,

I wanted to reach out my hand to her,

and tell her that it would be okay,

because I was here.

Because I knew loneliness,

I would always be by your side.

That's why, please,

stop looking back at me with such painful eyes... okay?

Why must I wake up with a headache, on today of all days?

Today was an important day, my first day of high school. I was about to enter a whole new world, along with my two best friends. So why, why, must my head be pounding so hard?

As if to exacerbate the pain I was feeling, my phone started ringing, playing a tune that I now found quite annoying. It buzzed, attempting to be an alarm clock, even though it had failed since I was already awake. In anger I grabbed it, flipped it open, turned the damn ringing off, and then tossed it to the floor, listening to the sweet sound of it crashing.

"Nanoha, are you awake!" My mother called from downstairs, her voice only made the pounding worse, but I endured it.

"Yes!" I yelled down, regretting it. I felt like I was hung over, or at the very least, I'm sure its a lot like this.

Slowly, grumbling, I crawled out from under my blankets, and slid off my bed, just like a snake, or a worm.

I didn't feel very awake, but my body was sure acting like it was. "Stupid brain..." I mumbled under my breath, reaching my way up to my feet, and pulling myself toward the closet, where my new uniform was waiting.

I marveled at it when I opened the closet door. It was simple, modest, and not very colorful, but I adored it all the same. I pressed my face against it, taking in the fresh smell. "Ah~, so this is what being a high schooler feels like." I rubbed my face against the fabric, my headache disappearing bit by bit.

"Nanoha! Are you up!" Mother called again, not believing in my ability to get up on my own.

"I'll be down in a second!" She was quiet once again, and I turned my attention back to the uniform. Grinning gleefully at it, I reached down at my clothes, and started to tear them off; in silent anticipation of what was to come, I undressed myself as quickly as I could, unable to wipe the silly smile from my face.

"Mou, you're late, stupid!" Alisa greeted me the usual way. She was a blond-haired foreigner with a lot of attitude, but deep down was really nice, which is why I could look past her insult today.

"Good morning, Nanoha-chan." Suzuka, my best friend said to me, giving me her usual smile. Never in your life will you meet someone as sweet as her, bless her heart.

"Good morning, Suzuka-chan, Alisa-Chan." I replied with a chirp in my voice. "Sorry, I lost track of time, nyahahaha~." Alisa eyed me suspiciously.

"You were playing around with your uniform, weren't you?" At first I acted like I didn't know what she was talking about, but when she kept her gaze locked on me, I could do nothing but avert my eyes.

"Che..."

She sighed, and did a facepalm. "Honestly... Well whatever, we gotta hurry." Suzuka and I nodded, and the three of us ran at top speed. The wind zipped through my hair, and the breeze felt nice. I was so excited, my heart was beating a mile a minute. In just ten, maybe 5 minutes if we ran fast enough, the three of us would finally be high school girls.

The entrance ceremony was extremely boring, like majorly boring. In fact, the only reason I even started to pay attention, was because of the principal. She was weird looking; a tall, curvy woman who looked very young, but the weird part was her green hair. It was like she was from another planet, I couldn't help but pay attention, though I was mostly just staring at her hair as she talked, and not absorbing a word of what she said.

After it was over, I met with Suzuka and Alisa. The three of us would be in the same homeroom again, it was like fate was smiling down on me.

As we walked and talked, we bumped into Natsume, short, red-headed classmate from middle school.

"Nanoha-chaaaaaaan~!" On sight, she tackled me with a hug. I nearly fell over, but managed to keep steady. She was always an amusing girl, so her random affection made me laugh. Her eyes moved over to my two friends, one of which didn't look very pleased. "Oh look, you guys are here too."

"Whadda ya mean by that!" As expected from Alisa, she completely took it the wrong way and got angry. Natsume, grinned at her, squeezing me even more tightly.

"Nooooooothing~." Suzuka joined me with a giggle as we watched the two bicker. They were always like this. It was a good feeling, it felt like nothing had changed at all.

Natsume let go of me finally, waving her hand. "Sorry but I'm in another class, so I gotta go, see ya Nanoha-chan!" She ran away before Alisa could make any comments.

"That girl seriously gets on my nerves." She said, grinding her teeth.

"Now now," Suzuka said, touching her shoulder gently. "She's a good girl, you two should try being friends."

"That's right." I chimed in, feeling left out. Alisa just huffed and crossed her arms. Suzuka and I looked at each other, and then started giggling again, which made the blond's face flush with embarrassment.

"Ah damn it! Shut up will ya." We patted her on the back, giving a halfhearted apology.

Class hadn't even started yet, and already I was making good memories. As the three of us moved again on our way to class, I smiled widely, linking my arms with my friends. Alisa blushed again, saying that we were too old for this, Suzuka just quietly went along with it, humming happily.

My high school life, had finally begun.

During class, I zoned out. It was the first day, I wasn't going to learn anything, so I just scribbled down in my notebook. Glancing from side to side, I saw that Alisa was sleeping again, she never was an early riser. Suzuka was diligently listening to the teacher, taking in every single word, like a good girl. I envied her for a moment, wishing I had even a fraction of her motivation, but then I just went back to drawing crappy replicas of my friends.

When it was over, and the bell rang, Alisa finally woke up, and stretched her arms, and then quickly wiping the drool from her mouth. Suzuka and I crowded her at her desk, and we talked about various things, from the entrance ceremony, to the fact that Alisa was cute when she slept, though that topic didn't go down very well. I never tire of her exaggerated expressions, she was such a tsundere.

And soon, class continued...

At lunch, the three of us found a nice spot under some trees, and ate together. Natsume found us soon after, and then things got a little chaotic.

"Geez, you're always getting so close to Nanoha, don't you have any shame!" Alisa once again looked very pissed. Natsume was huddled up close to me, eating happily. I did have to admit, it was a little troubling having her so close, but I didn't really mind, it was nice to get so much attention from someone. Natsume, being Natsume, just gave her a sly grin.

"What's the matter Alisa, you jeaaaalous?*" She said, always stretching out her words when taunting the blond. Alisa's face turned bright red as expected.

"O-Of course not, moron! You're just irritating, acting all buddy-buddy with her."

"Fu fu fu, that sounds quite a bit like jealousy to me, A-l-i-s-a-c-h-a-n~." Alisa ground her teeth, finally at her breaking point.

"You...you...!" Shaking her fist, she got up and went at her, though Natsume dodged her easily. The two of them got to their feet, chasing each other around.

"Kyaaaa! Nanoha-chan, save me from this raging beast." The redhead squealed in mock terror, clearly enjoying the situation, and Alisa's growing anger.

I looked at them and shook my head, releasing a sigh. Suzuka just giggled cheerfully like always.

Finally, after ten minutes, the two of them exhausted themselves and sat down, though they glared daggers at each other.

"Ha...haa... truce...?" Natsume said, catching her breath.

"...F-Fine..." Alisa responded, doing the same. They didn't bother shaking hands, neither them had the strength anyway.

As Suzuka and I ate quietly, it looked like they were about to pass out. Yeah, definitely the same, I thought, concealing my thoughts with a smile. Somehow, I had a nice feeling. This year, was definitely going to be interesting, I, Nanoha Takamachi, just knew it.

A/N: * What I really wanted to write down for that scene:

Alisa: Stop getting so close to her!

Natsume (Trollface): What's wrong Alisa, U jelly?

Alisa: Useless! Its all Useless!
