Ami Mizuno hated being late. Not that she had ever been late. Before.
Today might possibly be the exception.
It wasn't her fault. The alarm had been set for the correct time last night. But for some strange reason it had not worked. The fact that it had been soaking wet when she glanced at it had been rather strange.
'Concentrate on running. I'll ask dad if he knows anything about my alarm clock when I get home.'
Now it is Murphy's Law that anything that can go wrong will go wrong.
There is another Law that states that if two schoolgirls running to school (not necessarily the same school) and that if both become lost in though, then there is a 99.8% probability that they shall turn a corner and bump, slam, crash, or in this case run into each other.
(The same law applies to rivals that will eventually become romantically entangled.)
At this time Serena was also running to school. It was her second week and like on her first day it seemed that she would be late today.
Ami and Serena crashed into each other.
Both sprang up quickly apologizing profusely.
"Oh, I'm so sorry. Please forgive me."
"Don't be silly. I wasn't looking where I was going. I'm the one who's should be sorry."
"But I was not looking where I was going either. It would seem that is the fault of both of us. But that shouldn't matter right now. We are going to be late if we don't hurry to school. I really don't wish to be late on my first day."
"Cross Roads, right!"
"Why yes."
"Let's go!!"
If one were to be a student at Graviton High then one would usually be treated to the sight of a red-headed girl going over fifty miles per hour dragging behind her a short haired blond who was the owner of a very annoying wail.
Now the students at Cross Roads were not like those at Graviton and so they were quite frazzled at having a long haired blond pony-tailed girl run by faster than possible by most humans. Oh yes, trailing behind her a girl with short blue hair.
Thankfully they weren't late. And seeing as Serena knew how it could be for the knew girl in school, she had decided that since she herself had not made many friends it would be a good idea for the two of them to get together.
There was also that strange feeling Serena had been getting that day. It felt like an elemental was nearby. That should be fun.

Nathan Yasleni was annoyed. He was also worried. For about a week an half one of his only true friends and great confidante, Darien Shields was missing. No matter what he tried, or how many seek spells he cast. Nothing. There just wasn't any trace of his friend. Flipping aside long curly brown hair, Nathan closed his reddish brown eyes in frustration.
There was nothing else he could try. He knew that. But he so much wanted to know what had happened to his friend. With a long sigh he stood and left the dark room he used for ceremony and meditation. Outside waited the others.
Jared was blond and blue-eyed. A veritable girl magnet, not that he cared. He had broken so many hearts that half the girls that new him hated him, while others worshipped him from afar believing that his heart had been broken by a terrible woman and that one of them would be the one to get through his cold facade to the real man beneath.
Keith with his long white blond hair and matching silver gray eyes was also considered extremely handsome but it seemed he had yet to meet the girl in his dreams. The fact that he would sometimes not stop talking about her annoyed the others, but he had been doing it since they were young and so had learned to fuzz out his amorous monologue.
Zachary. Like Jared he had blond hair, like Nathan it was long. But he liked to keep it in a loose ponytail. His deep green eyes were devastating especially when he turned them on the nearest target for conquest. Unlike them Zac, as the others called him, though that there was nothing more fun than the hunt. Of beautiful girls of course.
Nathan himself believed his studies to be more important than the pursuit of romance.
" Nothing?" asked the guys.
" Nothing." said Nathan.
They all sighed. Were could Darien be. They all felt that he needed them and all wished there was something they could do.
~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!
In a place of mist. Where nothing exist. Two figureds appeared out of nowhere.
"WERE ON THE COSMOS ARE WE NOW!!!"
"You don't have to shout you know." Artemis rubbed his each ear with a dainty white paw. Darien's frustrated shout had been really grating. Well it was kinda his fault they were stuck somewhere...............somewhere. 'This probably never happened to Luna' though the white cat. ' Well it could be worst. 'We could be in the Makai, or maybe Hell, or a combination of both. Now those places are nasty.'
Darien was really quite angry, he had just spent several days traveling with a wisecrack, who tended to get his sayings wrong. Now Darien was a man of great self-control. Thankfully, for the benefit of a certain white cat's health, he was able to control himself enough that committing bodily harm was not unattractive but he reasoned that it would not be very smart at the moment since first he needed the cat to get home. Once he got home was another matter altogether.
Shouting on the other hand was acceptable. He was about to go into full Mad Warlock Rant when a shout from Artemis interrupted him before he could get started.
"Got It!!! Get ready Darien, I finally figured out what was interrupting my transteleport, but it's sure to get us to right place this time."
With a look of horror on his face Darien disappeared. Over the course of his travels Darien had found out that sayings were not the only thing the talking cat could say, or in the case of spells do, horribly wrong.

Hope you liked this. I did warn people that I'm a slow writer. I also wish I could make scenes longer, but they just wont cooperate. I also hoped to make this one longer than the first but that didn't work out. The last scene I had planned just wouldn't come out so I had to save it for the next chapter. Please Review.
