Chapter 1: New arrivals
It was a normal school day, cheery, sunny, hot...outside. Inside the hallways were jammed with students and filled with the buzzing of voices talking about the latest school scandal. In one particular classroom there were two females sitting in the back of the room sitting quietly. One female had chest length brown hair and crystal blue eyes that were intently reading a book, while the girl next to her had shoulder length red hair and brown eyes who was looking at the paper in front of her editing it. "Oh my god! Guess what you guys?!" a pink haired female shouted sitting in the seat in front of the red haired female.
The brunette and red head looked at each other before shrugging and looking at their friend blankly. "Oh! You two are hopeless!" the pink haired girl said.
The red head rolled her eyes while the brunette went back to reading. "Mimi, tell us and be done with it," the red head stated getting annoyed.
The pink haired female puffed out her cheeks frustrated. "Sora! You ruin all the fun!" she yelled before pouting.
The brunette sighed and put her book down. "Mimi, what has gotten you so excited on this fine Thursday afternoon? Do you have a date for junior prom?" she inquired feigning politeness.
Mimi smiled at the female before the three of them burst out into laughter. The pink haired female shook her head. "No. If only I did! You guys would be the first to know. Alas the only thing that has got me excited is the five teenage celebrities that will be joining us at school tomorrow!" she said slapping down a magazine.
Sora picked it up and flipped to the marked page as the others waited. "Oh no way! 'As of Friday, January second, the five most famous teenage stars will be going to the local high school Demeter Valley High, also known as Dementia Valley high, one of the most competitive schools in the state. They are known for their school magazine, boys soccer team, Theater group among other things. They have the best scores in the county and are clearly the only option for the five teenagers. Taichi Yagami, Koushiro Izume, Yuuko Minowa, Yamato Ishida, and Takeru Takashi will all be attending the school, claiming that they used to go to the elementary school," Sora read her eyes going wide.
"Yamato's going to be coming here?" she whispered.
Mimi and the brunette looked at the red head smiling. "I-I um, need to go, tell the teacher I needed to think and will be in the music room,"
The two nodded at their friend and watched as she left. "She's so in love with him. I know they haven't met or anything but they are soul mates!" Mimi said picking up her magazine.
The brunette frowned and shook her head. "You do realize that she likes his music, not so much him. She thinks he's an arrogant dick head that needs to get over himself. You know this," she replied picking her book back up.
Mimi moved seats to sit in front of the brunette, grinning evilly. "Iris, we can play match maker. I know you aren't into all that kind of stuff, but come on! Maybe you could get someone," the younger stated.
Iris rolled her eyes and looked at her friend. "The bell is going to ring and you need to get to the magazine room before the teacher marks you late," Iris said flatly.
Mimi rolled her eyes and stayed where she was. "Well since I am head of the magazine she doesn't actually care about whether or not I'm late as I am usually getting information for articles and such...which reminds me," Mimi replied. "It's alright if I write the article of the week on you right?"
Iris raised an eyebrow at her friend. "Knock yourself out,"

Iris ignored the chatter that had started after first period about the stars that would be joining them tomorrow at school. she could really have cared less, they were all dicks that needed to get over themselves. She went to her locker and grabbed her duffel bag, thankfully practice had been canceled due to the win they had on Tuesday. She pulled out her soccer ball and headed to the empty field before setting her bag down and looked at the field before dropping the black and white ball in front of her. She put her foot on top of it to stop it from bouncing around before she kicked it between her feet debating on whether or not she should practice on her own. Letting out a sigh she took out her head phones and tossed them onto the duffel bag before making her way down the field towards the goal.

Dark brown eyes watched as the small female began running towards the goal that was closest to them. The black and white ball was the brown eyes main interest, though the female in control was a sight. A light breeze came and went, ruffling a mass of brown hair. The tanned male, dressed in blue slacks and a white short sleeve dress shirt and worn sneakers, leaned against the railing of the bleachers as he watched intently as the girl got closer. He was debating. But what was the question. "Like what you see?" a low baritone voice asked from behind.
The brunette only glanced at the spiky blond haired male for a moment before walking towards the female.
*
She was about to kick the ball into the goal when a male kicked it out from in front of her. She spun around ans watched as the bushy haired male stopped on the other side of her with a grin on his face. "Now it wouldn't be a practice with another person," he stated grinning wider.
Iris growled and glared at him. "I don't really care. Give me back my ball," she responded growling.
The brown eyed male rolled his eyes. "Only if you can get it back,"
He took off towards the opposite end of the field kicking the ball and heading for the goal. Iris sighed and began to chase after him.
Two hours, and many falls and arguments later Iris kicked the ball into the goal before the male could stop it. She slid on her back and laid on the ground panting as she threw her arms up in the air. "Yes! I win!" She exclaimed getting up on her elbows.
The male shook his head and jogged over to her and held out a hand. Iris smiled and took it, allowing him to pull her up. "Nice game. I'm Iris Noboru," She said dropping her hand and going to the goal to get her ball.
She returned to the male and smiled. "Taichi Yagami, but you probably already knew that," he said bowing.
Iris smiled and shook her head. "Well it was a pleasure to meet you Tai. But I have to go and shower up before I meet up with my friends for dinner. If you have any friends you may join us. We'll be at the Pop's Pizzeria down the street at six. Tell the hostess, Iris invited you and they'll sit you in our normal spot," she said before walking off to get her bag.
Taichi only stared after her amused. "HEY! THE NAME'S TAICHI!" He shouted when he realized that she hadn't called him by his full name.
There was a chuckle behind him and he turned around. "So. Looks like you've got a date," The blond stated crossing his arms and smirking.
Taichi shook his head. "Oh no, I'm bringing you and your brother and Izzy, I really don't care what you think about it," he responded grinning evilly.
The blond only shrugged. "Alright, but I must say that she's going to be a toughie," he said motioning to the girl.
Taichi only shrugged. "She's good. Obviously I'm attracted to her. Now I need to shower and change,"

Mimi was typing away on her computer in her small office in the magazine department. She was editor in chief and ever since she took over the magazine it had taken off and become a huge hit among the school and many residence around Demeter Valley. She had pulled her long pink locks back into a bun and stuck some pens and pencils in it to make sure she could easily find them later. She brushed a strand of hair out of her face and continued working as there was a knock on the door. "Sorry we're not open right now. Come back tomorrow during school hours!" she said not noticing that he person had sat down in the chair on the other side of her desk.
"I was wondering if there was a position open at the magazine," a male voice said, the smile absent from the voice.
Mimi frowned and paused for a moment to read her last sentence before continuing. "What's your experience?" She asked still not looking away from the screen,
This got a chuckle out of the male, though it didn't distract the pink haired sophomore. "Well I've been writing for four years, editing articles of three and own Up-2-Date," the voice replied.
Mimi raised an eyebrow and saved her work before leaning back in her chair and looking at the male. Her light brown eyes went wide when she realized who she was talking to. "Are you kidding me? Why would Koushiro Izumi want a job at a magazine that doesn't make money?" she asked getting suspicious.
The red head male sighed. "Well I need something to do for after school activities, and since there isn't a computer club of any sort, I figured that the magazine would be my best bet would be to join the Magazine. It is well known after all," he stated shrugging like it was obvious.
Mimi rolled her eyes at him and then shook her head. "Well, I'll have to think about it and find out exactly what we are in need of. If you'd like you can meet up with me later at Pop's Palace down the street at six, I should have the list made up by then so you can look it over," she said turning back to her computer.
Koushiro looked at the girl confused. "Alright. I was thinking something along the lines of second in command, but whatever is open will be fine with me,"
He stood up and left, leaving a busy Mimi.

Sora tapped on the piano keys for the millionth time, playing a popular song that would make most girls scream with excitement, but for Sora, it was soothing and had more meaning than just a pretty boy face and voice. The words were meaningless, as it was the piano that made the song. "Not too bad...for an amateur," a low voice said.
Sora rolled her eyes knowing who the owner of the voice was. "Yama, go away," she said flatly before continuing the song.
She felt a presence next to her and soon the clunking of keys. She let out an agitated sigh before stopping and looking at the spiky blond haired male with cobalt blue eyes. To other girls this would be enough to make them melt in their seats, they would die if they found the Yamato Ishida sitting next to them. Sora was not one of those girls fortunately. She shot the male a glare. "I told you I never wanted to talk to you again," she snapped crossing her arms.
Yamato sighed and stopped playing the piano. "Sor, I'm sorry. I tried to get there honest," he whispered.
Sora heard the crack in his voice, but it wasn't good enough, he should have called her to at least say he wasn't going to make it, rather than just leave her waiting all night for him to show up. She didn't care that his music career was taking off, they were still friends and that should have been enough to leave his party and see her. "I got you this," he said.
She watched as he pulled out a velvet box. She took it and looked at him and then the box. "Just think of it as the four birthdays that I've missed,"
Sora returned her eyes to the ruby box. She slowly opened it and gasped. "It's beautiful," she whispered pulling out a silver chain with tear drop rubies around it. "Put it on for me please?"
Yamato smiled and nodded as the girl handed him the necklace and turned around. The blond slipped it around the females neck and locked it before smiling. He knew he wasn't out of the fire yet, but he was getting there. When she turned around to face him he smiled knowing that he had chosen the right necklace, it was expensive, but more important than that, he searched for a good three months looking for the perfect necklace for his childhood friend. "It's perfect,"
Sora rolled her eyes and shook her head. "You're not forgiven just yet," she said a small smile on her face.
Yamato nudged her in the side and smiled. "Alright. I'll see ya around,"
He stood up and nodded to the red head before leaving her to play the piano.
Author's note: So umm yeah...I hope this is good...Comment/review please! I know Tai is slightly off on her personality...in fact some of them are off, but don't worry, I promise that they won't be like that.
