It was a bright sunny day as four girls ran down the road in a hurry.
"Hurry up you guys!" Aria said as she ran in front of her friends.
Aria Miafugi is the known as the leader of the group. She makes it her job to keep everyone happy. She inherited her mother's red hair which only reaches her shoulder and her father's brown eyes.
Aria isn't close to her mom but was close to her father before he died. Aria is also the granddaughter of Yoshika Miafugi who was apart of the Strike witches many years ago. Although the witches have given the world great service with their magic but unfortunately being one in this day and age will get you killed.
"It was your fault Yumi" Mitsuki said as she pushed up her glasses to keep it from falling off while running to keep the pace with Aria. "If you would have followed the schedule I set, we would have reached earlier with time to spare."
Mitsuki Camaya is the nerd and shut in of the group. Making sure everyone stays on track and up to date on everything that's happening and had happened in the world. She has long black hair and dark blue eyes that seem slightly green when she has on her glasses.
Mitsuki has a privileged life growing up. Everything she wanted was giving to her without any complains. She barely knew her parents since they were always working so she found comfort in reading books.
"Hey! Is it my fault that Shiro makes great food!" Yumi yelled at Misuki as she ran and passed both her and Aria.
Yumiko Oshimora is the wild and athletic tomboy. If you even mention a dress to her, she'll turn green. When it came to anything athletic, Yumi can't be beat. She has long dark brown hair that is always in a pony tail since she says it gets in her way and dark brown eyes.
Yumi grew up with 8 older brothers and 4 younger ones. Being the only girl and the fact that her parents only wanted boys, her parents hardly notice her. Most of the time, they hardly remember her name.
"Now, now girl. No arguing" Shiro scolded as she tried to keep up with them while carrying bag with 5 lunch boxes.
Shiro Sanada is the mother in the group. She keeps the peace and usually cooks for everyone. She has beautiful long light blue hair and pink eyes that always catches the bid attention which makes her extremely uncomfortable but was too polite to say anything and that's were Yumi comes in.
Shiro's parents both died in a car accident leaving her aunt to take care of her who isn't very good at doing so. Shiro's aunt is barely home since she loves sleeping around causing Shiro to grow up fast. At the age of 5, she was already cooking her own food.
"Hey guys! Slow down! Wait up!" Jasmine whined out of breath as she tried to with the others.
Unlike Aria and Shiro who are 16 and Mitsuki and Yumi who are 15, Jasmine was only 10 so she's known as the baby of the group. She has curly pink hair that barely reached her shoulder and blueish purple eyes.
Jasmine is an orphan who used to be bullied constantly for being baby like until she made friends with the others. She knows nothing of her parents except that they were from America but came to Japan hence her name Jasmine.
"Yumi would you mind car-" Shiro started but got cut off by Yumi who ran passed her towards Jasmine.
"Already on it" Yumi said as she lifted Jasmine over her shoulder and quickly ran a head of everyone.
"Hey! Put me down!" Jasmine yelled but her plea when the deaf ears.
"Be careful Yumi! Don't drop her!" Shiro shouted worriedly
A beeping noise was heard from Mitsuki's wrist watch causing her to look at the time.
"Ah! Guys it's 12:58! She's expecting us at 1:00!" She yelled
"What! Let's pick up the pace girls!" Aria yelled receiving a chorus of 'rogues' from the others.
(At the Fugita Clinic)
A old lady sat on the porch of her old house that was a mile from the city and surrounded by a forest. She sighed softly as she leaned back in her wooden rocking chair with her eyes closed.
"Their late" she finished as she heard rushing footsteps coming towards to house.
The first person to get there was Yumi who stood up straight and saluted the old lady as Jasmine jumped from her back to stand beside her.
"Yumiko Oshimora reporting for duty!" She yelled
"Jasmine reporting for duty!" She yelled as she saluted as well.
The next person was Mitsuki who came to stand beside Jasmine then Shiro who rushed to stand beside Yumi.
"Mitsuki Camaya reporting for duty!" She yelled while saluting.
"Shiro Sanada reporting for duty!" She yelled while saluting as well.
Aria was the last to arrive. She hurried to stand beside Shiro and saluted to the old lady.
"And Aria Miafugi reporting for duty!" She yelled
Hearing all four of them, the old lady leaned back slightly before standing up and saluting them.
"Yoshika Miafugi reporting for duty!" she yelled and after a few seconds, she put down her hand and smiled sweetly at the girls while walking into the house. "Welcome back ladies. Let get you all dress so you can start your training!"
"Yay!" they yelled as they all ran passed her into the house.
(5 hours later)
After changing into their uniforms, the girls were now in a clear field behind the house training while Mrs. Miafugi inspected their progress.
"Miss Oshimora, why is the sky blue!?" She yelled while looking up into the tree where Yumi was doing a handstand at the top.
"Because molecules in the air scatter blue light from the sun more than they scatter red light. When we look towards the sun at sunset, we see red and orange colors because the blue light has been scattered out and away from the line of sight Ma'am!" Yumi yelled trying to keep her concentration and succeeding greatly.
" What is light speed and how can we travel at it!" Mrs. Miafugi yelled
"The speed of light in vacuum, commonly denoted c, is a universal physical constant important in many areas of physics. Its exact value is 299,792,458 metres per second. As an object approaches the speed of light, its mass rises precipitously. If an object tries to travel 186,000 miles per second, its mass becomes infinite, and so does the energy required to move it. For this reason, no normal object can travel as fast or faster than the speed of light." Yumi yelled as she flipped to another tree only to land on the same hand.
"Paul has $31.15 from paper route collections. He has 5 more nickels than quarters and 7 fewer dimes than quarters. How many of each coin does Paul have?" Mrs. Miafugi yelled after stepping under Yumi's current tree.
"Paul has 79 quarters, 84 nickels and 72 dimes!" Yumi yelled as she continuously flipped down until she landed on the ground in front of Mrs. Miafugi.
"Great work soldier. Remember that you'll need both brawn and brains to survive anywhere." Mrs. Miafugi said as she walked away expecting Yumi to follow and she did. They then walked to where Jasmine and Mitsuki were training. Jasmine was throwing three balls at a time in the air then flipped into the air to kicking them one at a time at Mitsuki. Seeing the balls coming, she activated her powers causing her cat ears and tail to come out. Like most witches, the power they get is unique. Before the balls could reach 10 metres, electricity came from her body and perfectly sliced each ball into six pieces.
"Good work controlling your powers Mitsuki Camaya. Next week we will work on protect others and not just yourself." Said Mrs. Miafugi
"Yes Ma'am" Said Mitsuki while saluting her
"And Jasmine, I am very glad that you. Shiro and Yumi don't limit yourselves because your not witches like Mitsuki and Aria. I'm expecting great things from you three." Mrs. Miafugi said giving her soft smile.
"Yes Ma'am!" Jasmine and Yumi said
At that moment, Shiro came running up to them while pulling a huge wooden cart behind her filled with bricks.
"Shiro Sanada, I assume you have finished your 10 mile run." Said Mrs. Miafugi asked
"Yes Ma'am" Shiro said while the other girls inspected her cart.
"Dang Shiro, that only looks like 20 pounds. I never thought I'd see the day you start traveling light" Yumi smirked while leaning on the cart.
"Yeah, what happened Shiro? You usually carry 50 pounds." Jasmine questioned
Shiro was about the answer but Mitsuki answered for her.
"Because I told her to take it each today since yesterday she carried twice her normal weight." Mitsuki started "I don't need any of you getting hurt"
"Now, now girls. Let go check on Aria's progress" Mrs. Miafugi said as she begone walking towards the house as the girl followed. Aria was on top of the house, using the roof as a balance beam.
"Ready" Mrs. Miafugi whispered as the girl got the slingshot ready. Yumi and Mitsuki held the thick rubber band. "Aim" Jasmine and Shiro placed a brick in the center and pulled it back. "Firer!" The brick was released and went flying towards Aria.
Feeling something coming towards her, She quickly activated her powers and out came her fox eyes and tail. She jumped into the air and summoned her shield that she wrapped around her hand and punched the brick into dust. Aria's power girls her immense strength when she wraps her shield around her arms. She fell to the ground and saluted her friends and grandma.
"Good work Aria Miafugi." Said Mrs Miafugi then faced the rest of the girls. "Your training is now completed for the day!"
"And now it's time for lunch!" Shiro said as she was about to run in the house for the lunch boxes, a helicopter suddenly flew over their heads and landed a few metres away. Army soldiers surrounded the area with large guns that were pointed at them, prepared to fire at any moment.
"Oh no!" Mrs. Miafugi yelled in shock "How did they know!?"
"They couldn't have!" Aria yelled "None of us said anything, right girls!"
"Right!" They all yelled
"I did" Said a smirking woman who stepped out of the helicopter. "You are all under arrest for going against the orders of the government." She spoke as she got closer along with the soldiers. "Mrs. Miafugi will be sent to a old folks home, allies of witches fates will be decided by them and their families and as for the witches, they will be facing the HOLE."
"Mom!" Aria said in shock
