10 May 1999
Ami Mizuno sat in her seat in History class, all her concentration focused on the textbook and notes
spread on her desk. In ten minutes, the teacher would be passing out the quiz, and although Ami was
fairly certain that she would do well on it, she wanted to go over the material one last time. So she
tuned out the sights and sounds of everything else, and read over the chapter. Then, it was time for
the quiz to begin, and Ami put her books and notes under her desk.
Quickly and methodically, Ami marked her answers one after another on her scan-tron with her pencil,
and within minutes she was done. She leaned back in her seat, and all of the sudden, she stiffened. A
hand was combing gently through her hair. To her recollection, no one sat in the seat behind her, so
who could it be? She did not want to turn around, the papers had not been collected yet, and this
particular teacher was rather paranoid about cheating. Not that Ami would EVER cheat...
But soon enough, the papers were collected, and the teacher's aide was sent off to run them through
the scan-tron machine. Ami turned around, and looked into a pair of leaf-green eyes. On an unfamiliar
but very handsome face with an intelligent expression and gentle smile, crowned with dark blond hair.
Then, on his desk, there were several small wads of paper. With a slightly quirked eyebrow, the new
boy inclined his head towards another boy a few seats away, Norman Sheldon, the class clown, who
had another wad of paper poised to throw into her hair. Ami rolled her eyes, then fixed him with an icy
glare.
"Norman, I know this is a lot to ask for someone of your tiny mental capacity, but could you please
just TRY to act at least half your biological age?!" She hissed at him. He made some rather negative
comment about the class, in an unfortunately loud voice, and was subsequently heard by the teacher
and chewed out. Ami turned back to the stranger.
"Hello, what's your name?" He smiled at her, and proferred a hand.
"Zoisite Green. And yours?"
"Ami Mizuno, a pleasure." She shook his hand. The two fell into pleasant conversation. Zoisite had just
transferred from another high school, in fact, the same high school that Kunzite, who was Ami's friend
Mina's new boyfriend, had attended. Both soon found out that they had several things in common: a
high intelligence, great ambition, and steady, dependable natures. When the bell rang at the end of the
class, Ami walked out smiling. She had just made a new friend.

Yes, yes, I KNOW that the chapters are short! OH WELL!! This is probably going to be a very long work
though. So just be glad that I update regularly. Same things apply as in the first chapter...REVIEW!
