Chapter One- It's just begun
Cagalli Yula Attha, sighed as she began to walk out of the school gates, her bag full of text books, and upcoming exam notices. She forced herself to reach the elementary school a few miles away from her school. A gust of wind blew from the west, allowing her extremely short blonde hair to embrace it. She touched her hair, remembering how long it use to be (well maybe shoulder length long) but it was long enough to make her appear as a girl. Cagalli started to recall the past, as she remembers, she use to be a little girl with long silky blonde hair, who would run around in a light blue dress calling out to her parents who were standing a few feet away from her from the door of her old house. 'Mommy,Daddy! Look at me!' She remembered how she would smile ear to ear seeing her parents. But now it was just the plain opposite. She clench her palms together letting the happy, but brutal memory slip by her , but the grip loosen while she heard her name being called.
'Carson! Hey wait up!'
Cagalli turned around. Her fake boy name was Carson Utha, funny, how her guy name ended up starting with a letter C.
'Yeah?'
'You forgot something in a grey bag while you were walking out of school.'
Cagalli smiled at the brunette coloured hair boy. She thanked him, and when she looked inside the bag to see what it was, she blushed mad crayola red.
'Hey what did you forget?' The boy leaned over to see what was in the bag, but the red blush girl jerked back.
'Umm it's nothing; it's just a pair of gym shorts. Hahaha... umm thanks Kira for returning it to me! Anyways I have to go now so bye!'
Cagalli knew she totally sucked at lying so she made a mad run for it to her little sister school.
'W-wait! Carson! I have to tell you something important! Slow down!'
Kira started to chasse her but she shouted back,
'Tell me tomorrow! I have to pick up my sister now!'
And with that she tripled her speed down the road until she knew that Kira had stopped following her. What was really in her bag was a pad since she was afraid her period might come without her realizing it. But if Kira did know what was in the bag, she'd be a goner, and she would be pinned down to answer questions in no time.
Kira huff and puff holding on to his knees trying to catch his breath. 'Boy' he thought. He never knew Carson was such a fast runner. He really needed to tell him something, and he thought that he just so happened to find his 'gym shorts' and he decided to tell him there. But his chance slipped away in a flash. As he began to regain his normal breathing, a hand was perched on his shoulder. He turned around to see his navy blue hair, emerald eyed friend Athurn.
'Hey what happened to you? Running laps to prove to your Girlfriend you aren't some weak wimp?'
Athrun smiled at his comment, but Kira immediately brushed it off.
'No. I was running to catch up with Carson. Dude, he can really run without breaking a sweat. Surprisingly, he didn't join the 400km run, figures; he could really do the team well.'
Kira shook his head in disappointment, while Athrun asked,
'What were you going to ask him then?' Kira looked at him, and said from aside,
'If you haven't known, Carson is actually my Cousin. And he's been facing pretty sucky stuff lately. He lives by himself, caring for him and his little sister, and he works late at around 7ish, and it isn't a surprise that several gangs will start to gang up on him, but he was able to beat some up, and run the rest of them off.'
He smiled a bit. 'So I decided to suggest to him to join the boy's volley ball team since he's probably has some stressed out emotions in him, and you know that volley ball is a great game to get lost into.'
Athrun wanted to say something but Kira cut him off.
'He good trusts me. He might be a bit short. But he's pretty powerful.'
Athrun looked at him hoping that Kira was making a right move. Sure, he wasn't right to judge Carson since he didn't really know him, but he wanted his team to do extremely well during the upcoming season.
'Well...' He paused.
'I'll see. Why don't you tell him to meet me tomorrow morning in the gym at 7am. Tell him that if he comes later than that, he'll have to do 30 push ups.'
Kira nodded at Athrun's answer. He knew that Athrun wasn't going to let any plain old boy join the team, so he wanted to toughen him up to see if he was up to it. 'That's it?' Kira asked sarcastically. Athrun smiled evilly and turned around and walked away,
'30 more push ups if he passes out on the 29th one.'
Kira smiled. And he rushed back to his house to report the news.
Cagallli waited impatiently tapping her foot on the floor waiting for the bell to ring. As she did on her 78th tap the bell suddenly rang full volume. Doors flew open as little kids scrambled out the doors to meet their parents. Cagalli didn't have to wait long to see her Amethyst eyed sister with a faded pink dress on her to come running to her.
'Cagalliiiii!'
Her sister squirmed into her.
'Heyy, how was school?' She smiled back at her enthusiastically.
'We're going on a 5 day felid trip to a... ru-ruAL area!'
Cagalli smiled at her 7 year old pronunciation, waiting to hear more.
'And its...' her sister paused a moment to think.
'$150' she answered in a doubtful frown.
Cagalli nodded at her uneasily. She knew she was extremely tight on money, and that all she had in her bank account was $400, which she gained from working at her crapy job that didn't pay her enough to feed her or her sister good food. (AN: food such as bread and butter :[ )
'So Cagalli am I going?'
Her sister frowned at her as she saw her big sister frown in thought. Cagalli looked at her sister with a small smile. Maybe she could give this money to her sister. After all, she wanted to let her sister have a good time while she was still young. And it'll also force her out of the apartment, where it was only her and her sister. She knew her sister was a very chatty person, and she wasn't, so she knew that doing this would allow her sister to be with her friends on the trip. Cagalli smiled and she knew what to say.
'Of course you're going silly!'
She smiled to her sister with the best smile she could make, and her sister smiled and hugged her back.
'Cagalli you're the best sister that any girl would ask for!'
Her sister went out of the embrace and tugged on her big sister hand to go home. Cagalli was proud of what she did.
At home, Cagalli dished out some butter and sugar (she thought treating herself wouldn't be bad.) And spread it across the plain white bread that was on her hand.
'Stellar! Come here, your snack is ready!'
Her little sister ran to her and took the bread from her hand. She smiled and patted her sister on the head. 'I'm going to get changed now, don't do anything silly!' she rubbed her sister hair and went off into her room. She jumped into her bed and laid there. She was really tired, but there wasn't a day where she wasn't tired anyways. She got back up to realize that there was a message left on her home phone, as the orange light signalled that there was an un-read message. She pressed the flashing orange button and listened.
'Hey it's me Kira. It's about volley ball...'
(AN: YAY I'M FINSIH :3 there might be some spelling errors or punctuation errors x_x sorry... Oh yeah! Next chapter is when Cagalli gets to meet Athrun xD)
