Witchy Things Happen- Chapter One
The name of the story sorta stuck after I was trying to find something simple to name my story just until I could find a suitable name for it and the more I said the title to myself and read it the more I liked it:) I know this might be a new uhh type of idea for a Gundam Wings story but I promise there will be Gundams that show up at some point :D hehe. I just had to get this idea out of my head, I have had it in my head for the past like three days and it has been driving me crazy:D I just got up the motivation to type it up early this morning :) Man! motivation comes at the weridest and silliest of times. :) Enjoy the story :)
'Why...why did I fall so easily?' Those were the questions she kept asking herself as she layed in a grassy area. She wasn't concerned about where she was or how she got there at the moment. She just wanted to know why she was remembering that moment at that place and with her. 'How is it that a person can fall so eaily and so hard and not know it til it's too late??' When she heard voices coming from a group of men that is when she snapped out of gazing and remembering.
"Come on Q-man, come with us to the club, you will like it. Just this once. We could hook you up with someone that is your type." a braided young men known as Duo Maxwell begged and begged his blonde friend.
"Hehe. That is okay Duo. Clubs aren't my thing, but thank you for the thought. I'll just stay at home. Don't worry about me, you go out with the guys and have a good time. I'll find something to do." a blonde known as Quatra Winner laughed at his friends persisntant manner, but thoughtfulness.
sighed the young man"Okay." and then he went on to get excited about planning something else for that same week."If you say so. But! we will do something this week together! I will find something we all can do! Something that we all can have fun with!" the braided young man boasted.
'Who are they, they look soo familar yet I can't place their faces." The girl had climbed to a near by bush and was watching the scene as they continued their walk to what looked like the park.
Then suddenly there was a scream in the park and the sounds of a child in trouble.
"someon help! my daughter is stuck up in a tree and can't get down.!!" yelled a paniced mother who didn't know what to do other than yell for help.
There was a man nearby that was sweeping the leaves off the sidewalk in the park with one of those old fashioned brooms. "oh deer. someone should get the police or fire department." The old man was mumbling to no one in partiular.
Without thought the girl sprang from the bushes and ran up the the man with a look of urgency on her tired face. "excuse me sir. May I borrow your broom for a min, I promise to returen it. Please I know this must sound crazy but please!" The girl said the last part louder and with panic in her voice.
'Why am I donig this, what would possess me to borrow and broom?! and what could I possibly do with a broom!??'
The old man reaslly didn't see the problem in letting the young women borrow his broom, after all he was a kind old man. "o..kay." The girl swiftly but gently grab the broom and ran to the sound of the mother crying. On her way to the scene she ran past the young men that had just walked by moments ago. She bumped into the braided man and he turned slowly to look at her. The scene moved as if someone had put on the slow mo button. The girl's eyes moved to the side to look at Duo for a second and then they were focused on the problem at hand, the girl.
"hold on miss!" the girl yelled as she stuck the broom under her and without thinking about it was blown swiftly but gently up into the air. The gust that had busted her up spreaded around the area and cause the young men's hair to sway in the breeze gently. They looked, amazing and in total confusinon, did that girl just ...fly?!
"okay guys, is it me or did you all see what I just saw." Duo stared wide eyed at the scene taking place. No one was saying how the girl got up in the tree all they saw was that she was on a branch that was small and she was hanging onto it withy her tiny hands that were slipping with every second that slipped by.
The little girls hands couldn't hold on any longer and she slipped. "ahhhhh!"
The tree was pretty far off the ground, it was an old and acient tree, that had been there for years and years. The young women looked on in panic, could she make it in time?! She was scared for the mother and most importantly for the childs life at hand!
"Nooo! Faster!" as if listening to her the broom took a dive and dove after the young girl and it looked as if the young women would not make it in time! Everything seemed to go by soo slowly, as if in slow mo. The young women even had tears forming in her eyes as the broom decendent soo swiftly. 'noo! please! I don't care which deity, just someone please help me save this girl! please!' At that moment the broom gained even more speed, if that was even possible.
Just as the girl was about to hit the ground the young women caught up with her and seconds before the girl fell to her death the young women had caught her, but at the same time the young women was off balance from stopping soo suddenly and soo close to the ground that her and the girl just sat there and the next moment you heard a Thud! as they both hit the ground from a mear inches off the ground. The young women fell of the broom but in that short time that she fell she made sure that her back hit the ground and she covered the young girls head and body with her own body.
"Wow! that was totally amazing! Man! that news is going to want to check that women out! she was...man I didn't even know people could fly with out Gundams! Soo sweet!" Duo was getting all excited and hyped up about the even that had just occured. "Yes well you braided baka, I doubt that the women is going to want to talk to anyone. I know I wouldn't want to." Trowa who had been quiet up til now voiced his thoughts. "perhaps you are right Wufei." Quatre could just stare in wonder, and shock that something soo...well the only word and right word that he could come up with at this moment was magical, though that was hard to believe, considering the world and era the lived in.
Duo glomped his blonde buddy and exclaimed excitedly, "Q-man! Wasn't that awsome! Oh yeah!" The blonde man just kept on staring and said one word "yeah."
The young women was on the ground panting and hard and sweating from all the rush that had just happened. Why? that what she kept asking herself, whether it was to ask why could she have done what had just be done, or maybe why she acted the way she did, she wasn't sure at the moment. She wasn't even sure where she was and who she was at the moment, she didn't have time to think about anything else til now. And without warning those images from before flooded her mind.
Another young women and herself, outside in the falling snow, looking all around them. It was a beautiful sight to behold and they both look as if they were about to walk across teh sidewalk that they were standing by. Neither wanting to walk on the freshly fallen snow, it all sparkled and glowed with a beauty that was unlike anything they had seen up til now, whether it was beautful because they were looking at it together or not it was simple amazing. One name passed through the young women's head as she was remembering all this, but was it a memory or something else, no it had to be a memory. Hoshi. The women across from Hoshi turned around to find Hoshi still looking all around them at the still falling snow. The women just smiled and when Hoshi looked at the women she smiled too, but there was something in the other women's smile that Hoshi couldn't figure what it was. That is when the women's face got closer and closer to Hoshi's until...
And that was when the crying mother came up to the two still laying on the ground. Hoshi didn't realize but the child had been crying into her chest, both frighted and worked up. Hoshi stood up with the child still in her arms. She looked at the mother and smiled, while handing over the young girl to the still paniced mother. "thank you! thank you soo very much miss! I don't know what I can do..." Hoshi held up a hand to stop the crying mother. "It's okay, your young girls safely is all I need." About that time she could hear vans pull up and people scrambling to get out of them.
'News vans! great just what I don't need right now!' Hoshi made a mad dash to the back of the park, hopefully she could hide somewhere there or find a way out of this park away from the News people. In her paniced and rushed state Hoshi wasn't looking where she was going and ran right into someone. They both fell down hard! and you could hear a double "ufff!" sound coming from them.
"Q-man! You okay man?" Duo came running up to his fallen friend.
As Duo got Quatre to his feet Quatre looked up as Duo helped him to his feet and a gasp came from his mouth. "What is it Q-man?"
Duo looked to where his blonde friend was looking and he gasped as well. There before them was the women that caused all this craziness.
Duo looked at the women and studdered "Y...you!"
Hoshi who was still sitting on the ground and rubbing her butt with one hand while hushly saying "owww" looked up at Duo and her eyes Widened, everything was coming at her mind like it was fastforwarding through the not soo important parts the the really important parts, like who these young men were standing in front of her to where she was.
Her gaze at the young men was interupted as she heard a faint "owwie" come from her pants pockets, which were locket on both sides of her pants. "hu?" Hoshi motioned as she went to lift up the flap from her pants. Out shot a Black blur. As it floated before Hoshi she could only stare at it and then a another name came to her mind, Night!
"Oh my god! Night are you okay!" Hoshi climbed to her feet to check on her friend still floating looking at her and then he turned around and looked at the men who were staring, shocked and really confused at this point. Flying women on brooms, girls myseriouly stuck in a tree and now a floating...thing staring at them, what else could this day bring other than pure craziness.
The floating figure turned back to Hoshi and flung itself at her cheek and started to whine. tears sprang from it's eyes unccontrolably. "Hoshi! I was soo scared! I didn't know what was going on and all I could do was sit tight in your pocket!"
Then his tears dried up as fast as they returned and then he floated a bit from her cheek and started to yell at her. "what the hell were you thinking!? Or were you thinking at all you crazy women! Do you ever think!?"
Hoshi got a look of rage on her face and then she too started to yell at the floating figure that was adorned with white feathery wings and from what anyone could tell, looked like a mini stuffed wolf. "OF COURSE I WAS THINKING! I'M SOOO SORRY THAT I DIDN'T HAVE TIME TO LET YOU KNOW THE DETAILS...WE SUDDENLY END UP HERE AND I DIDN'T HAVE TIME TO THINK AND FOR YOU INFORMATION I JUST SAVED A LIFE SOO INSTEAD OF ACUSSING ME OF NOT THINKING AND WHAT COULD I HAVE BEEN THINKING SHOULDN'T YOU BE GLADE THAT I ACTED THE WAY I DID AND THAT I SAVED A LIFE YOU GOOD FOR NOTHING LITTLE RUNT OF A GUARDIAN!!"
Duo just stared with his mouth opened wide and closed it as he titled his head to his blonde buddy and whispered, "Maxium rage."
All Quatre could to do that statement was nod his head. Wufei was tired and all he wanted to do was head back to the manson and get some sleep.
He stepped in between the two, as if this happened everyday there. "If you two don't mind, could take this little bickering somewhere else. And I think that you are wanted." Wufei motioned to the camera men making their way over to her, as the mother was pointing the young women out.
Hoshi looked to Night they both nodded and Hoshi said quickly, "Time to go." Just as they were about to take off Quatre grabbed Hoshi's shoulder and she turned around "Come with us." She nodded not arguing and they all ran the opposite direction the camera men were coming from.
As the group came through the front door Rasheed came rushing up the Quatre. "Master is everything okay? We saw on the news...is everyone o..." that is when he saw Hoshi come through the front door and when Night shot out of her pocket, again. "...kay."
He walked up to the young women and stared down at her, as if she was a person who just comitted a crime. Hoshi studdered under his hard stare "uhh s..sir." he started to talk "Who are you miss?" Hoshi assumed he ment what was her name. "Ho...Hoshi Kibou sir." He then asked her "Is it true, what they are saying on the news, did you really save a little girl miss"
Hoshi could only nod her head yes in answer to his question. "We thank you, very much Miss. Kibou for your brave actions." Rasheed bowed respectfully.
Hoshi stared to wave her hands in front of her face quictly. "Noo! that is alright, please dont' bow, I don't like it when people bow. We're all equal." By this point her hands had stopped waving and were at her side, as Night floated to the side of her, next to her head. "I should be the one bowing to you all, you are this world's savoir's. I don't really believe in fighting but sometimes you have no choice but to fight." Hoshi voiced as she turned her head to look at all the Gundam pilots.
Heero, being Heero pulled out a gun and aimed it to her head, exclaiming "Who do you work for and why are you here" with a series look on his face that said he ment business.
Hoshi studdered under the gun merely inches from her face. "I...I don't work for..." that is when Night bumped her on the head with his tiny black paw and she looked at him and caught on "o...ohh yeah...I work for the Guardians of the dimentions. Me and Night here serve and try to protect each dimention from someone trying to cause chaos. I guess would be the best way to explain it."
Night boosted while he puffed out his chest "That's right, Hoshi and Night, the duo team! haha!" While Night was laughing mensingly about his boost Hoshi was scratching the side of one cheek and amitted to the pilots, "Though sometimes we get in over our heads and need to call in for help." Night yelled at her "Hoshi don't say that, we are strong and can do anything." Hoshi looked at him and narrowed her eyes and said "And I suppose we just called in help last time for fun, you know because you were trapped in a force field buddle and couldn't get out." Night stopped what he was saying and slumped down in the air embarsed, he sighed "Your right, sometimes we do need help." he said as he closed his eyes to amit the truth he really didn't want to amit.
In all the rush Hoshi took to get out of the the park she had totally forgot to return something and only realized this.
"Oh no! I totally forgot to return the broom I borrowed from that kind old man at the park!" she exclaimed as she held up the broom in front of her.
Night just sweat dropped and soo did everyone else. Hoshi slumped a bit still standing inside the house but with door open "oh man." she sighed.
She turned around and closed the door behind her. Rasheed looked at everyone and suggest they all get to bed and that he would call a maid to find a empy room for the young miss. Hoshi didn't like being called Miss. Kibou, it made her sound older than what she was and insisted that she be called just plain Hoshi.
"Please sir, just call me Hoshi, if you could please. I don't like formalities." He turned around after speaking with the maid and smiled. She just looked at him as she tilted her head to the side a bit.
He then said "Kibou was it?" Hoshi nod and said "Yes." she blinked, not knowing where he was going with this. "So...your last name means hope." She just looked at him and shrugged her shoulders. He then said to her "And if you could just call me Rasheed Hoshi, I would appreciate it." She looked at him and then smiled. "Toshay. okay! Rasheed it is then." she smiled and titled her head to the side a bit. Then she remember what Rasheed had said before about her name meaning hope she commented...
"I'm not sure, I just know I was named that." Duo jumped in and put a arm around Hoshi lazly and smiled as he said "of course it means Hope, in Japanese that is."
Everyone looked at him like he had grown a second head, "What?! I listened in classes, contrary to what some people say." His gaze wondered over to Wufei. From the look on Duo's face Hoshi couldn't keep her laughter in any more.
"HAHAHA!...that face, it's just soo priceless." Duo turned back to Hoshi and smiled his big goofy smile and said "Why thank you." she giggled a bit and then said "Your welcome and smiled herself." Night flew up to the top of Hoshi's head and just slumped down to a laying position and exclaimed tiredly "I'm tired Hoshi, can we go to bed now." Night yawned and was close to sleep. Hoshi leaned her head a bit forward so Night could fall or more like float down to her hand. Duo stared as Night gently landed on her hands that were cupped together and said "Awsome." in a hushed tone. Hoshi just smiled as she looked at Duo and then looked back at Ngith and said "Goodnight, Night." She craddled him like a mother does a baby, in her arms. As she followed the maid who came up to her and asked her to follow her to the room she would be staying in for the time be.
Hoshi was laying in bed. She couldn't sleep, she was tired bfore but she was awake now. She looked over the snoring Night in his new freshly mad mini bed that was sitting on a table right next to her bed. She sat up and looked out her double glass doors and decided to get out of bed and get some fresh air and the best place for that would be on the roof.
"I'm sure no one would mind if I got a little fresh air, after all I just can't seem to fall asleep tonight." She swong her feet out from under the covers on down to the smooth cold wooden floor. She made her way over to the broom she had borrowed from the man before and borrowed it again, silently thanking the man for his kindness. As she touched the broom this time she closed her eyes and then there was a slight flash of light and when it faded she stood in an outfit other than her night cloths. She looked down at her self in approval of her new cloths. She wore a pair of sandle's that had laces that wrapped all the way up til they reached her knees. She had on a skirt that had four sections that were split up four ways, and under this unque dress were a pair of thin pants that hugged at her thighs and part of her legs as if they were part of her skin. Her top was a bit longer and came over her skirt a big. The shirt was sleveless and she had on arm warmers that went from the edges of her nuckles to her elbows. On her neck was a choker that held a hanging silver star. The material to the choker was a sliver blue color. Her arm warmers were a a silver color and her shirt was a mixture of blue and silver. Her pants under her skirt were a light blue silver color and her skirt was a silver color with stars sparkling all over it, but not too many just enough. The broom had transformed and now had a piece of silver thin materica wrapped from the where the hay part began and til the end of the hay portion where the material just hanged losily there.
"Alright, time for some air." she walk to the door and opened it quickly but gently. She stepped out and close it gently. She took a deep breath and placed the broom under her, one leg on each side of the broom. She started to float there, bring her feet up to rest just a bit below the wooden part of the broom. She acended to the roof and landed when she found a spot that look like a good place to get some air. She landed and as she sat down and layed back she placed the broom on the side of her.
Hoshi closed her eyes. Remembering the women from before. She couldn't remember her name, just the touch of the young women's lips agaist her own. They were warm and inviting. Hoshi didn't know how, but she just knew the kiss the young women gave her in her memory, it was her first kiss, and in being her first kiss it was soo very special to her. And then there was a flash of another women but this women was clinging to the women was remembering.
"Who was that?" Hoshi whispered to herself.
"Who was who?" Duo asked hushedly as he bent down to whisper closely to her.
"Epp!" Hoshi shot up from her laying position and she flared her arms, wavy them in a rapid motion. She stopped as she settled down a bit looking at who it was.
"Damn you Duo! Don't do that to me!" Hoshi whispered but harshly.
As Duo took a seat on her side not occupied by the broom, he layed back and closed his eye's and said "So.rry." Hoshi just contiued to sit up and layed one leg down and propped the other up so she could lay her arm over it as she just gazed out at the sky beyond the ocean. Duo just gazed upwards eye's now open.
"How..." He paused a second as Hoshi looked down at him. "How did you know my name. I don't think the other guys said it before." He tilted his head to the side a bit.
Hoshi looked back up and contiued to gaze across the star filled night sky. "Guardians and their human partner's know certain people from dimentions, I guess you can say that we're suppose to know the important people, not that the other people here aren't important but...how do I explain this. It's like we only know the hero's, the people that protect that dimention."
Duo just layed there and said "Oh...okay. Makes sense."
They continued to stare at the night sky. Both enjoying the other's comany. No really knowing what to talk about so they both just stared at the sky. They sat in a comfortable silence that only friends can sit in and know that the silence is okay and welcomed.
The end of Chapter 1 !
Hoshi- means star in japanese, Kibou- means hope in japanese
I just love the way they sound when you say them, their soo pretty and just roll off your toung soo nicely:)
I don't know when I'll get the inspiration to write the next chapter but please look out for the next chapter. :) I'll try my best to have it out soon, but I make no promises :) Coming next...Chapter two Returning a Broom can be Such a Work Out. Thank you all for reading and I hope you all have a great day:) Waves as she goes off to try and get some sleep
P.S.
If I got any of the translations wrong, please let me know! thank you very much:) I had a hell of a time trying to find what Hoshi ment in Japanese, I could have sworn it ment hope but I was wrong. Hoshi is japanese for star and Kibou is japanease for Hope, and I really wanted to incorperate a japanese word that I could use for a name in this story, it will play out later, but I really wanted to keep Hoshi because I thought that sounded right for my character, so I decided to keep Hoshi Hoshi and add Kibou as her last name.
Fun facts:
Hoshi is pronouced like this hoe-she
Kibou Key-boo
cool eh :) Later skaters ! Now it's bed time for me. Or should I just read some fanfics til i get really tired...Fanfics it is! yay:hops off to read some D.N. Angel fanfics:D
