And with that, they were taken, in pajamas, to the drama department. In the costume department, they were given an outfit as an example as to their wardrobe.(Pictures on profile)

They gave Dawn a blue trench coat with flats and a beret. She also asked, for some mysterious reason, a scarf.

As Dawn looked at herself, the principal spoke again. "Dawn, you speak French, I hear?"

She smiled enthusiastically. "Yes, I speak fluently! Even some people in France thought I was a local."

"Perfect. You are French pageant girl Gabrielle Bernard. You don't know much English, but your friends are going to help you learn it."

May had gotten a modern black and white striped top, green skinny jeans, and big, fancy sunglasses.

"May, how's your Italian?"

"Well, it could be better…"

"No worries. You are Adrianna De Luca, Italian local, but your first language is English."

Last, Misty got an orange cardigan, skinny jeans, and went all-out on the orange accessories.

"Mr. Davis, I don't know another language!"

"Yes, but you've got a mean British accent! You are Samantha Tolbert, you are the one who's teaching Gabrielle her English."

"Ok… thanks guvna!" she said with a wink.

The principal looked at his watch. "Oh! Well, you girls better get packing. Your cab arrives in an hour to the airport. I've already got you guys somewhere to stay, and I'm sure you'll love it. Remember, you need to be that person, become it. Make up a story, learn it. Remember all of it. We're counting on you. No pressure."

Dawn's POV:

Our time was almost up, and after saying goodbyes and packing, Misty and May were exhausted, both just about falling asleep when I ran into the room. Vielstone City, this couldn't be right.

"Hey guys!"

"Not again!" Misty stuck her head under a pillow while May groaned.

"So...um...I forgot where we're going."

"merphmphmy"

I looked down at the talking pillow. "What?"

"I said, Vielstone City."

My eyes widened. "WHAT! You're sure?"

"Yes, I'm sure!"

This wasn't supposed to happen. There was a goodbye. I swore there was no going back. Now, I have to go back. This is gonna be hard. How can I go to a place with so many painful memories?

May's POV:

We drove to the airport, reviewing our story until we had all memorized it. We were about to step onto the plane when Dawn stopped dead in her tracks.

"YES, DAWN!" This was getting annoying. Apparently Misty thought so too.

"What is it now?"

She seemed nervous, jumpy. "Oh, uh... it's just that... the moment we all step into this plane we turn from popular girls to nobody, new kids..."

Is she hiding something? She's been acting weird ever since she asked for that mysterious scarf... I mean, she should be happy to travel. Even for Dawn that sounded like a stupid excuse.

"Well, there's no turning back now, Dawn!" Misty dragged her into the plane, making everyone stare at us. *sigh*, I could use those giant sunglasses right now. Oh well.

Finally, we watched as the plane took off, Dawn looked as if she were fighting the urge to cry. What is up with her? She's traveled hundreds of times! Slowly, we watched as the cities of Kanto became smaller and smaller until we disappeared through the clouds.

"May...May? Wake up May!" Misty was calling me.

"Oh,sorry. What?" I sat up and rubbed my eyes, squinting at the bright light.

"We're here, look."

I peeked past Dawn, who looked as though she were trying not to look utterly terrified. Vielstone City.

Misty's POV:

We caught a cab to our new... well I don't know. Is it a house? No, It's probably some teeny tiny apart-WHOA. We were driving up a street of mansions! They were beautiful!

"Sir, are you SURE this is the right street?"

The driver laughed. "Sorry to disappoint. Here's your house, by the way."

We pulled up onto possibly the biggest house on the street, other than our next door neighbor's house, which looked like the white house. (A/N I wonder who lives there?)

No POV:

They spent the next few hours choosing rooms (Dawn won Rock/Paper/Scissors for the balcony) and shopping for things to decorate their rooms. When they went to sleep that night, they all thought the same thing, 'So much for typical Sunday.'

Misty's POV:

"AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!"

Not again Dawn! I mean, Gabrielle! Maybe if I just pretend to be asleep...

"OW! OW! OK, I'M AWAKE GOD!"

Okay, when Dawn wakes you up with pillows, there's problems. I walked to May's room. "What's up?"

Dawn's face kinda scared me. She looked slightly hysterical. She let out a forced laugh. "What's up?" she repeated. "WHAT"S UP! IT'S MONDAY, WE HAVE SCHOOL IN HALF AN HOUR AND YOU AREN'T EVEN AWAKE!"

"Oh. Yeah well... that could be a problem."

We spent the next 15 minutes running and screaming all over the house like we were from the funny farm. Why would I say that? Well, for one, May almost ran into breakfast in her undies, I mean knickers, before screaming and running back. This is going to be interesting, that's for sure.

I wonder what the neighbors think of us so far?

Drew's POV:

So Paul, Ash and I are eating breakfast...

"AAAAAAHHHHHHH! GUYS WAKE UP!"

We all jumped.

"What the...?"Even Paul seemed scared. Wait, what?

Paul's POV:

I know that voice. It can't be. She wasn't ever coming back. She swore. Wait. Three foreign exchange girls are coming. But I only hear one voice. Wait a minute. God what is up with these people? Listen to them!

" YOU IDIOT YOU'RE NOT WEARING ANY PANTS!" "OH MY GOD! AHHHHHHH!"

"So, what's up with the not-so-haunted house?" I asked them.

Drew said simply, "No idea."

Well, today just might be interesting.
