Author's Note: Dear all of you, yes it is me, Fallen Firefly with another fic. Well this isn't really another fic. This was up quite some time ago under the name Firefly and Illusion Creator but we discontinued the story -_- so uhm yes I am here with the edited version. Very edited. Most of the plot has changed damn it. In fact only one fact from the old Melodrama is used in Melodrama Version 2 so er… yeah. Uh... it was kind of long so I am going to shorten the chapters instead of eight pages I'm guessing I could squeeze in oh, four or so. Uh partial credit goes to Illusion Creator who helped me write the story in the first place and all of you people who didn't read Melodrama when it came out, SCREW YOU DAMN IT! Well I'm in no mood to write anymore so on with this edited piece of crap.
Melodrama VERSION 2: Episode 1: What Started it All
Written by: Fallen Firefly
"Hey Heero," Duo said as he walked up to Heero who was typing rapidly on his laptop, "the top five hundred military students are coming tomorrow." He explained.
Heero continued to type, not really caring.
"And their top student is staying with us." Duo muttered.
Heero stopped typing for about three seconds without saying anything, then he continued to type again.
"We have to go to the meeting tomorrow you know. We are supposed to set a good example as top gundam fighters and go to see what this whole meeting is. And one of us is supposed to give a speech."
"That's what I'm writing." Heero said flatly as he continued to type.
"Really?"
Heero pushed save on his computer and took out his disk.
"You are going to say the speech?" Duo said, obviously not believing what Heero was saying.
"No... You are." He handed the disk to Duo and walked off. Duo only looked at the disk with a confused expression on his face. He chuckled and put the disk in his pocket. "I am not reading this bull." He said to himself.

"You do understand that the meeting is tomorrow and you do understand that you are going to stay with five boys who are supposedly experts at piloting these mobile suits. Right?"
"Sir." The raven-haired beauty replied while saluting to a rather tall young man by the name of Shinji. He was a kind and gentleman who was not only the lieutenant of the VisCon Army, located in an American Base in Japan but also her boyfriend. (AN not an actual army.)
"And I do think that we will be keeping in touch through letters and occasional visits to each other right?" He smiled as he took off his small glasses and looked at his girl.
She looked back at him and a smile appeared on her lips as she ran into the arms of her loved one and giggled while he spun her around.
"Ah, I'll miss you baby." He whispered in her ear. He had that romantic deep voice and a body that every girl would wish to own.
He let her go and she looked at him. "I love you." She whispered and he said those same words back to her.
"Promise me something." They said as they embraced each other for one last time.
"Anything." She whispered. She couldn't seem to find her voice whenever she was around him.
"Promise me that you will never fall for one of those guys. Do you promise?"
Hotaru looked at him and smiled saying, "Of course I promise."
He smiled. That treasured smile that drove Hotaru crazy. Then they neared each other and slowly let their lips lock. A kiss that Hotaru will keep forever in her heart. After all this time of going out, almost three years, this is the first time they had kissed and they made it last, especially Hotaru, who loved Shinji and would die for him if she had to.
"And I promise you that I won't love anyone else while you are gone... no matter how many girls want me." He said comically. Hotaru smiled slightly.

After the six-hour shuttle ride to the L3 Colony Cluster, she made her to the front of the airport. Supposedly, a Mr. Kakoi, the military schools' representative, was supposed to pick her up.
When she stepped through the sliding glass doors and entered the room where all the luggage was, she saw a small man with large glasses who was going up to people with a sign that said, "Hotary Tomoe" and was asking everyone around, "Are you Hotary Tomoe? Hotary Tomoe? Hotary Tomoe?"
Hotaru rolled her eyes and leaned all her weight on one leg. She crossed her arms and waited for the puzzled little man to come up to her and ask her.
"Ah, you must be Hotary Tomoe right?"
"Hotaru Tomoe. Hotaru with a 'u'," She said sarcastically.
"Forgive me madam. Do you have any luggage that I can carry for you?" He asked.
Hotaru gave him a small card that had the numbers her luggage was branded with. As he made his way towards the luggage area, he told her to go outside and inside the limousine waiting for her outside.
Hotaru did what she was told as the little man came out struggling with her two heavy bags of luggage.
Hotaru got out of the car and asked the stubborn mule if he needed help and he, trying to impress Hotaru, told her that he was fine. When he fell to the ground due to the weight of the luggage, Hotaru aided him with them and they both walked inside the limousine.
"So you are the top student? You know that you are going to be the last person that those people are going to expect to me a military student, and the top one. Aha, Imagine that." He said as they made themselves comfortable inside the long black car.
"Where to sir?" The driver asked.
"VisCon and fast." Mr. Kakoi said.
"Wait, don't I get to go to a hotel and like, shower and stuff?" Hotaru asked puzzled.
"No I'm afraid you can't. You have to go straight to the meeting. You are going to stay in a mansion with five other boys and you are going to train with them also. Heck, you might end up training them." He checked his watch. "Damn it we are late. Driver, can't you go any faster?" he asked the driver. The driver nodded and they raced down a freeway.
Hotaru lowered her window and looked outside. Seeing them racing down up a bridge, she took a good look at what a colony looked like. True, this was her first time on a colony. She could see stars surrounding them, something that she wasn't used to since on earth you have to look up to see stars.

"Seeing as how this is an emergency, I'm glad that most of you trained future soldiers were able to make it all though I still see a few empty seats. As you all know, these next few weeks here are going to be intense. Training for hours at a time. Since you are earth's finest, you are here to learn more about space battles since that is mainly what happens here on the colonies and I'm pretty sure you can take it." Quatre said on the microphone. Since he didn't know how to say 'no', he ended up writing the speech that Heero had made instead of Duo. "After your training, you all will be sent out to fight for earth and the colonies as soldiers for the---"
Quatre stopped seeing the giant doors in the back open. All of the soldiers turned around and saw three men wearing all black and with shades step inside. The a short pale little girl coming down the hall with a shorter man by her side who seemed to be explaining things to her rapidly showing her many papers as the girl only looked at them and placed most of the under her arm while the short man kept on passing her papers. Then three other men came behind the girl and the man. They looked like bodyguards.
All of the students looked at the mysterious girl walking inside the building. They seemed to like her black mini-skirt and her with her tight tank top. Her small flip-flops also made noise as she walked down the silent hall.
Hotaru stopped walking and so did the bodyguards. Hotaru looked around at all of the staring students. All of them were male. Hotaru looked annoyed (AN you all know the annoyed anime face: -_-). Her eyebrow was twitching slightly. 'How sexist.' She thought to herself.
Mr. Kakoi pointed to a chair on the stage and whispered to Hotaru quickly, "You are going to sit there next to those four men. The one talking and those sitting are the boys you are staying with." Then the guards and Hotaru walked up the stairs and as Hotaru sat on the uncomfortable chair next to a boy with a tight ponytail, the guards all stood behind the people.
The boy with the ponytail grunted and scooted away from Hotaru. Hotaru rolled her eyes and crossed her legs, leaving the ponytailed boy looking at a smooth leg with small feet. He blushed slightly and cleared his throat.
The blond boy continued to talk in the microphone and when he was finished, he took a seat next to a boy with messy hair.
Mr. Kakoi stood in front of the microphone and said into it, "Now that you know how everything works here, I'm sure all of you still have you letters with the rooms you will be staying in right here on the base. There are escorts outside with a limousine for every student here. If you may please make your way towards the exits and to one of the cars, I'm sure one of the drivers will be more than happy to give you a ride to the apartments."
All of the students stood up and stretched. Some of them stood there and began to talk to other students. Other's still sat where they were and were writing stuff down. Probably still taking notes. Other students just left the room quickly and jumped inside any limousine and drove off.
"Now then." Mr. Kakoi said turning around facing the five guys and the one lone girl. "Since we came late I wasn't able to introduce you to earth's top student. Boys, I would like you to meet Hotary- Hotary cleared her throat- I'm sorry Hotaru Tomoe. She is the soldier who is going to be staying with you."
The boy with his hair in a pony tail scoffed. "You have got to be kidding."
"No I'm not." Mr. Kakoi said looking at the boys. "Hotaru Tomoe, this is Wufei Chang." He pointed to the boy with the ponytail. "This is Quatre Raberba Winner- he pointed to the blond- Trowa Barton –he pointed to the boy with the gravity defying hair- Duo Maxwell –he pointed to a boy with a braid- and Heero Yuy- he pointed to a boy with messy hair-. Now that you have all met each other, please guards, escort Ms. Tomoe and the boys to the mansion where Ms. Tomoe can have some rest." He said. He handed Hotaru a folder full of papers and said, "Keep these. You are going to need them later." And he walked off of the stage.
"What about my---" Hotaru began but was cut off.
"Your luggage is already on its way to the mansion." Mr. Kakoi screamed behind his back and continued to walk.
Hotaru shrugged and was surrounded by the bodyguards once again as they all made their way out of the giant room where the orientation was held and towards the back inside a Hummer car.
"So you are the top student eh?" The braided boy by the name of Duo asked Hotaru.
Hotaru only looked at Duo and continued to walk rapidly.
"Ah so you are quiet also huh?" He asked.
A ring came from Hotaru's purse. Hotaru stopped and began rummaging through her small purse. All the bodyguards and the boys except for two stopped. The boy with the ponytail and the boy with the messy hair continued to walk.
Hotaru picked up a small ringing cell phone and answered, "Hello?"
"Hey baby. How are you?"
"Hold on." Hotaru said and looked at all of the boys and bodyguards. "I'm uhm... meet you at the car." Hotaru said as she turned around and walked slowly away from the boys.
"Hey." Hotaru said.
"You made it all right?" Shinji asked through the other line.
"Yeah I'm fine. All the speeches and stuff passed."
"Oh so you are on your way to your house or whatever?" Shinji asked.
"Hai." Hotaru said.
"Good. Well I'll be calling to see how you are doing all right?"
Hotaru smiled slightly and said, "Yeah all right. Love you."
"All right honey. Later."
Hotaru hung up her telephone and continued to walk towards the Hummer. All of the boys were already inside of it. They filled up all of the seats since it can only seat four people. Hotaru looked around.
"Ms. Tomoe, you are riding inside that one behind us." Quatre said from the passenger seat in the front.
Hotaru looked behind that Hummer and saw one identical to it with the bodyguards in it. Only three of them. Hotaru lifted an eyebrow and walked to the passenger seat in the front of that vehicle. She was starting to get annoyed of these bodyguards.
The first Hummer drove off and Hotaru's followed.
Author's Note: Konnichiwa all of you people. Well that was the first chapter and I know that it sucked. Uhm, this was just like an introduction to all of the characters and Uhm, the second chapter is coming tomorrow probably. Uhm please review this chapter please.
If you are wondering if there are going to be other Senshi joining Hotaru in the academy, there are but I don't want to add all of them so if you would please leave a review of who you want to come to join Hotaru and who you want her to be paired with. No one is to be paired with Heero though, sorry but if you have read my other story, you know that I like Hotaru/Heero stories so you can choose whoever you want and whoever you want paired with them. But please remember that this is Hotaru centered. So please vote who you first want to from the scouts to be Hotaru's little friend and them later on we will worry about her boyfriend k? So for right now, just help me with the coming Senshi. Later peoples.
