Chapter 1: Signing Up

(Emma's POV)

"Emma, be a Letter Bee. Something terrible will happen and only you can stop the big tragedy. Protect your sister and friends. Somebody special will help and protect you on the way, who? You will soon know. Good luck, Emma…"

"Hey Emma, wake up! It's time for breakfast!"

My dream keeps replaying that moment, why? I thought. What kind of tragedy will happen mom? People will die the same way like you and dad too? I don't really know. I looked through my window, the sky looks a bit more brighter, the artificial sun illuminates most of the Capital. That made me realize that today's a new day. It's been a few years since they died and when me and Taylor last saw them. Their hearts were eaten by Gaichuu, sometimes I want to avenge their death. But it's not worth it, they're probably thousands of them.

"EMMA!" Taylor shouted which made me fall off my bed. I hurried to the bathroom to wash my face, combed my dark blonde hair, changed my clothes, and ran down stairs.

"Good morning~! What's for breakfast?" I asked. "Some soup and bread, here."

I sat down on the chair and began having my breakfast, Finn was sleeping beside Taylor, peacefully. After I finished my breakfast, I woke Finn up and Taylor gave me my bag that has a few necessary things inside.

Oh yeah, I almost forgot to introduce myself to you readers. My name's Emma Hanson. I'm 15 right now. I have an older sister named Taylor Hanson, she's 18. And I have a dog who's a Golden Retriever named Finn. Well I'm gonna sign myself up for the Letter Bee interview right now. My reason was to fulfill my promise and prevent a tragedy from happening, still don't know what will happen. I'm also curious about the special someone that will help me, whom mom mentioned. Am I going to meet new friends, or maybe even find love? Maybe. Since I live in Yuusari Central, it would only take a few minutes to go the Bee Hive. Guess I'm going right now.

"Hey Taylor! I'll be going now!" I shouted to my sister.

"Alright! Take care now!" She shouted back to me.

On the way…

"I've heard the interview is actually hard and… dangerous, I mean it couldn't be-" I stopped talking until my hat just flew away from my head.

I tried to run for it, but someone already caught it. It was a black-haired boy wearing a stunning Letter Bee uniform. He then gave it to me.

"Hey, is this yours?" The boy asked while lending my hat to me.

"Ah yes! T-thanks." I replied to him while I wear my hat again. "You're welcome." He said with a smile to me.

He was walking to the same direction like me, maybe he just finished a delivery, or just about to get letters to be delivered. He looked very familiar to me…

(Zazie's POV)

"Hey is this yours?" I asked the girl while lending her hat to her.

"Ah yes! T-thanks." She answered while she wears her hat. "You're welcome." I said to her with a smile.

That blonde girl looks kind of familiar to me. I heard she's going to do the Letter Bee interview, it's been actually a long time since I saw a girl signing up for the interview.

"Are you going to do the Letter Bee interview?" I asked. "Oh, yeah. I was about to sign up myself for the interview. Is it really that hard?" She asked me back with an uncomfortable face.

"Well, I actually took a week to finish. The record holder only took less than a day to finish the interview. But don't worry, I'll know you'll pass."

"Thanks. Wait whoa really?! That's amazing! I hope I can beat the record, it'll be sweet!" She said with a enthusiastic tone. Now she really sounds familiar, but how I can't remember her?

"Well then let's see! Good luck, you'll need it." "Thanks, I hope I can impress you with flying colors." She said confidently.

"It's actually pretty rare, a girl wanting to be a Letter Bee…" "Well I do have my reasons you know."

"I should be going, it was nice talking to you by the way." I said while running to the Hive. "You're welcome!" She shouted to me.

(Emma's POV)

"I should be going, it was nice talking to you by the way." He said while running to the Hive. "You're welcome!" I shouted to him.

After a few minutes of walking, I finally arrived and got a glimpse of the stunning Bee Hive. When I entered, a lot of people were really busy, I was gazing at the place, until I caught a group of boys with their dingoes staring at me, they all ran to me, they looked happy I think, sort of. What do they want with me?

"Hey there! You lost?" The one with dark brown hair asked. "Well… not exactly, I just got here. I actually want to sign up for the interview." I answered.

"My, my… what a very lovely girl. I think this is the first time I've seen a girl who wears clothes that almost makes her look like a boy. Tell me what is your name my love?" Another one asked, this time, he has bright blonde hair.

"First my name's Emma. Second, I like it this way 'cause it suits me better. And third, I'm not your… I don't even want to say it! Idiot!" I shouted to him.

"Whoa-whoa! Take an easy. Emma… what a lovely name, my name's Liam by the way. I think it's faith that you came here so I can be together with you." I can't believe he just flirted with me, and he gave a rose, a damn rose! Since I'm mad, I dropped the rose and tried to runaway. But, the one with the dark brown hair stopped me, unbelievable!

"Wait! We haven't introduced ourselves! I'm Ethan, that's Liam, the one who just flirted with you. That's Oliver, Carter and…" While he was still talking, I quietly ran and finally escaped from them. They chased me through the hallway, man they were fast. I just remembered that boys can be "so" athletic. Then I suddenly felt somebody holding my hand and pulled, I almost screamed.

"Wha-?!"

"Shh…" He then covered my mouth his hand. It's that black-haired boy again who helped me catch my hat. He then stopped covering my mouth when they're not in sight anymore. "What are you doing?!" I asked. "I'm trying to help you, guess one of them just fell in love with you. Well?... don't I get a thanks?"

"Thank you, thank you very much! Why would he even fall for me? I'm different from the other girls, I'm almost not that feminine! And I can't believe one of them just gave me a rose, I don't even like roses! Can you believe that?!" I screamed a little bit. He then pulled my hand again. W-why am I blushing? I mean he just h-held my hand, that's not a pretty big deal, right?

"W-where are we going?" "You said you want to sign up for the interview right? So, I'll take you to the office right now before they find you, you don't want that right?" He answered with a smirk. Wow, he's actually pretty nice, I can appreciate that. "Well of course not!"

"That blonde guy will do anything to win a girl's heart, but he never succeeded. Even though he was known to be handsome in here."

"Poor guy, I'm actually happy that he never succeeded, how 'bout you? Have the girls AT LEAST noticed you? Because you seemed FAR more better than him." Wait, did I just complimented him?

"I sometimes speak with the girls, so… no. B-but thanks." A slight color of pink appeared on his cheeks. A guy like him should've at least attracted one girl, I mean like really.

"That's the door to the office." He pointed out. "Thanks so much! I think you already helped me 3 times today, so this is a big thanks." I smiled to him.

"Yeah." He smiled to me while he walked away.

When I opened the doors, I saw a man with purple hair that's almost grey, and a woman with the same hair color like me.

"Are you here to sign up for the interview?" The woman asked. "Actually, yeah." I answered.

"I am Largo Lloyd, the Director of the Bee Hive, and she is my Assistant, Aria Link. And you are?" Largo-san asked. I was pretty nervous right now, I almost couldn't say a word. "I-I'm Emma Hanson, n-nice to m-meet you." "Emma, please tell us about yourself."

"Of course, I am 15 years old, my mom's name is Emily Hanson and my dad's Will Hanson, but they died a few years ago. I also have an older sister, her name's Taylor Hanson

"So, are you two 'the Hanson Sisters' I assume." "O-oh yes! You read our novels?" I asked.

"Yes, I'm still waiting for the last one in the trilogy. Is it almost done? I'm a fan of yours actually." I can't believe the Director read our novels! I'm actually smiling right now. "We're working on it right now, I'll tell you right away when it's already published." "Alright then, carry on. Now let's continue."

"Oh yeah. Well the reason I wanted to be a Letter Bee is that, I want to fulfill a promise that me and my mom made a few years ago. She said something bad will happen, and I'm the only one who can stop it, I actually don't know why and how. She also mentioned that somebody special will help on the way, so I'm actually curious about it." I said.

"Is that dog your dingo?" Aria-san asked. "Yeah, his name is Finn."

"Emma, are you sure that you would want to enter the interview? If you are, then please know that there are a few requirements. First of all, you will need a dingo. Since you already have one, you don't need to worry about that anymore. Second, a shindanjuu, it's a special weapon. You will be encountering something and you need to kill it. Understand? Now, do you have a place to stay?" Aria-san asked.

"Of course, I live near here actually."

"Well okay then. Remember, the interview starts tomorrow in this place on 8 A.M." She reminded.

"Alright, Thank you. Wa-wait! Can I ask you something?" "Yes."

"I met a Letter Bee with black hair that has a big indigo cat? I sort of forgot his name." I asked. "Oh him? He's Zazie, is he a friend of your's?" Wait, did I just hear that right? It's really HIM?

"Yes! Damn it, why am I so stupid? How can I forgot his name?! I didn't even asked his name even though he helped so much today. Oh sorry for overreacting just now." I was so embarrassed, my cheeks turned a little bit red. "That's alright, I think it's best that you find him right now." Aria-san said. "Thank you so much!" I thanked her and went outside of the office.

So he was actually my old friend. He's name is Zazie. It's been actually a really long time since I last saw him, looks like he's doing fine, I see. I think the only way to make him remember me, is obviously being sarcastic. So I ran to find to find him, hoping he's still in the Bee Hive. Hiding from the awkward and not so romantic guys almost killed me! They almost caught me a few times. And I finally found him, he was talking with a boy who has dark brown hair and also chubby, and another one who has shiny silver hair.

"Hey cat-faced idiot! Thanks for helping me out today!" I shouted. "What did you just called me?! Wa-wait… If you called me a cat-faced idiot, and if you're a girl who almost looks like a boy from the start, the-then you must be Emma!"

"Finally you remembered me! I'm sorry for forgetting your name too, so we're kind of even actually." Scratching the back of my head with my hand.

"I'm sorry too."

"I'm Emma Hanson, this is Finn. I met Zazie a few years ago. So are you guys Zazie's friends?" I asked.

"Yes! I'm Lag Seeing, this is my dingo, Niche, and this is Steak. My dream is to become Head Bee. Nice to meet you!" The one with silver hair shook my hand. And wow! This kid has high dreams alright! "I didn't actually ask about your dream, but OKAY!"

"And I'm Connor Kluff, this is Gus. What are you doing here?" He asked. "Well I just signed my self for the interview tomorrow."

"Really?! Well we're going to-" Connor stopped talking because Zazie and Lag just covered his mouth. "Shut up you idiot, don't tell her!"

"Okay? Hey Zazie, is that Wasiolka?!" I sweat dropped. "Yeah, she's gotten bigger."

"Well anyways, when did you-?"

"There you a-" I smacked Liam with a giant white fan, because of that, he fell to the floor. Everyone was shocked!

"Don't even think about it!" I said to him as I cross my hands.

"Man, I usually meet girls who are actually nice. But she's the most hard core one yet." "Better believe it! Now get lost before I use this on you again!" I was so mad at him. He and the others got outside with scared faces.

"Scaring reckless idiots can be so entertaining sometimes."

"H-how did you fit a giant fan in your bag?!" Lag dropped his mouth. "It's a secret, girl always use it if there's certain emergencies like this one." I answered. "I agree with you actually."

"You're a reckless one yourself you know that right Zazie?" "Can you stop calling me that Emma?!"

"Can't, it's my habit, remember?" I loved insulting and being sarcastic in front of Zazie since a long time ago.

"Anyways, when did you move to Yuusari Central?" "Since a week ago, I think. I should go, I think she's waiting for me."

"Who's 'SHE'?" They all asked in unison. "SHE is my older sister, Taylor."

"Do you want to come to my apartment after the interview?" Lag asked. "Oh sure. Well see you guys tomorrow!" I waved my hand to the boys.

"Good luck on beating the record!" "Thanks! Hope you don't sleep in the interview, you're one of the proctors right?" I laughed at Zazie.

"H-how…?"

I hope I can pass, there's no turning back right now. I want to fulfill that promise…
