 Chapter 1

            Justin Timberlake is the hottest guy ever, not counting he is a member of the group NSYNC. Oh I wish I could go out with him SO BAD!

            " Riona Tsai!" I heard a voice. " Riona Tsai, are you paying attention?" I realized it was my math teacher, Mrs. Stevens.

                        "Huh? Oh, yeah I'm sorry Mrs. Stevens, I'm paying attention." I slyly replied.

            " Then could you please tell me the answer to this equation?" she said pointing to an equation on the chalkboard.

                        " Umm…I stumbled as I tried to calculate the numbers in my head. Math wasn't my best subject. My best friend Hotaru who sat across from me wore a smirk. Suddenly, a knock on the classroom door interrupted my thinking. A note was handed to Mrs. Stevens.

            "Hotaru and Riona, you are needed in the office." Mrs. Stevens announced and Hotaru and I got up and walked out of the classroom.

                        " Do you think we're in trouble?" I asked Hotaru in sign language because she was mute, and she shook her head in disbelief. We reached the principal's office and walked inside.

            " Hello ladies, please have a seat." Our principal said and we sat down.

                        " You have been called to my office for good news." Mrs.Bailey smiled.

            " The two of you have been selected to attend the elite academy in Japan because of your academic skills." She announced and I saw Hotaru's face light up.

                        " All you need to do is fill out these application forms and have your parents sign them." Mrs. Bailey said to us as she handed us the forms. Then, we went back to class.

            On our way back to our lockers the bell rang and it was time to go home.

                        " I'll see you tomorrow!" I signed to Hotaru and she smiled and left.

*At home*

            " Wow Riona, I'm very pleased to hear you've been accepted into an academy." My mom said as she signed the application form. I was on my way upstairs to put it away after my mom finished, when my brother at the top of the stairs stopped me.

            I sighed and rolled my eyes," Get out of my way Jesse." And he smirked.

                        " Looks like smarty pants got accepted into the school for geeks!" he teased.

            " Hey, at least I got somewhere. You spend all your time playing all those video games and junk." I retorted and pushed passed him and made way to my room.

                        " Well at least I got a girlfriend!" he snapped back.

            " Cheater, you can't count Christine! This was an academic war!" I shouted and slammed the door shut. I did my homework and then surfed the internet the rest of the night. Then, I went to bed. The next day at school Hotaru and I both turned in our applications and now looked forward to a bright and awesome future!

*A brand new school year*

            The school year went by fast. Hotaru and I packed our stuff and flew to Japan. We arrived at the academy and were greeted by a woman.

            " Oh my gosh, doesn't that lady look familiar to you?" Hotaru signed to me.

Hotaru couldn't talk but she could hear so I whispered to her.

                        " No, who do you think?" I asked.

            " She looks so much like Lady Une!" Hotaru exclaimed but I shook my head in disbelief. " Yeah right!" I replied and we walked to the woman.

            " Hello and welcome to our academy. My name is Lady Une and you ladies must be Riona and Hotaru?" she greeted.

                        "See, I told you it was Lady Une!" Hotaru exclaimed.

            I mumbled to her under my breath, " She may look like her but there's no way she is the real Lady Une, so get over it!"

            " Are you two ready to tour the academy?" Lady Une asked and we nodded. Throughout the entire tour Hotaru kept informing me it was Lady Une but I kept telling her it wasn't.

                                    " Do you girls play any sports?" Lady Une asked.

            " We both horseback ride. Hotaru is very good at surfing and she can also fence. I am very good at gymnastics and I can also surf, but not as good as Hotaru. I also play violin and Hotaru plays the flute." I answered and Lady Une smiled.

                        " Our last stop is the medical office. You can come here anytime you have an injury or something. Our nurse is Ms. Sally Po." Lady Une explained to us.

            " Their nurse is Sally Po? This is one crazy staff!" Hotaru signed.

                        " Would you stop? I'm sure this is all a coincidence. Just go along with the program okay? " I replied. Hotaru rolled her eyes and folded her arms.

            " Hello girls. Since you are new to the academy we require new students to have injections, just to keep away any viruses or sickness." Said Sally and I saw Hotaru's face turn ghost white as she shook her head in fear.

                        " Hotaru, you're going to have to get a shot even though I know you really hate needles." I said to her but she still refused, so I decided to go with her so that she would be less afraid. Luckily, she pulled through. I received my shot and then we went to our dorms. There, Hotaru and I ordered pizza for dinner, watched t.v. and then went to bed. It had been a very long day.
