The Meetings
~7:00 a.m.~
Ring. Ring. Kara sleepily opened her eyes; half awake she picked up the phone.
"Hello?" Kara yawned.
"Hey Kara! Wake up! I'm going to pick you up for school. You better be ready in half an hour."
With that Miroki hung up the phone. Kara listened to the phone for a few seconds before hanging up to herself. Still half awake and half asleep Kara stumbled to get dress. Picking up the school uniform, she put it on, the stumbled downstairs for breakfast.
"The one good thing about a uniform is that you don't have to spend half an hour looking for the right clothes." Kara muttered to herself.
"Kara want are you doing?" Sable, Kara's seven-year-old sister came into the kitchen.
"Getting ready for school, what do you think?"
She heard a knocking at the door.
"It's open." Kara yelled.
"Come on Kara, we're going to be late Kara." Miroki called from her car.
"Coming."
"Kara here's your bag." Sable holds out her bag.
"See ya."
She runs out the door, and to Miroki's car. They chatted all the way to the school, talking about their classes and such. Barely remembering where everything was in the school, they wandered their way to computer class. The class itself was amazing, the computers looked brand-new; there was a scanner, and printer. Their teacher Mr. Ayre was nice enough to talk to them before class. Miroki took her seat beside Kara, only to notice the guy at the other computer in front of her. At first glance she didn't pay any attention to him, but she double take, and looked at him again. The boy glared at her with his cold blue eyes. The first thought that came to mind was the name 'Heero Yuy', and the second thought was that he shouldn't be glaring at her like that.
"What's your problem?" Miroki snapped at him.
"……"
"What's the problem Miroki?" Kara turned to her friend.
"Look at the guy across from me, and tell me what you see."
Kara looked at him, then looked at Miroki, "I see a guy who looks like Heero Yuy."
Miroki nodded, "Good then I'm not hallucinating."
"Don't worry, I bet there's lots of guys with brown hair with blue eyes. It's just first day jitters." Kara reasoned with Miroki.
Mr. Ayre finished making sure everyone was there spoke to the class.
"Class since today is the first day of class, we will just see what you are capable of doing. So today is just a free class, I will go around to see what you are doing."
Kara leaned over to Miroki, "We can work on the Gundam page that was deleted last night."
Miroki nodded, both girls got to work. That's when something strange happened; the minute Kara was about to put up the new Gundam Wing page, when it disappeared.
"Hey!"
"What's the matter Kara?"
"The page it just disappeared, like it was deleted." Kara exclaimed.
"Let's me see." Miroki checked out Kara's computer, "Hey, it looks like someone hacked into your file."
Kara started looking over Miroki's shoulder, "How can you tell?"
"I don't know, I just know that someone hacked into here. Give me a minute, let's see if I can find our hacker." Miroki started furiously tapping away at the computer.
"You can do that?" Kara asked disbelief.
"I'm not sure, I normally can't do this, but now I know I can." Miroki told her with a shrug.
"Well hurry Mr. Ayre is coming this way."
Miroki started working away with speed both girls didn't know she had before. Within five minutes Miroki had found their hacker.
"No way, it's the guy sitting in front of me! He's our hacker, and he's trying to delete our other files on Gundam." Miroki tried to stop him.
"Here let me try." Kara took back her seat.
Kara started making a program, and reprogramming the computer. She worked away at the program with equal speed as Miroki.
"There, I put up a firewall to try and keep him out." Kara explained.
"You can do that?"
Kara shrugged her shoulders, "I don't know, I guess like you I didn't know I could do this."
"Impressive girls."
Both Kara and Miroki jumped up from their seats, looked over their shoulder to see Mr. Ayre there.
"You both have excellent programming skills. Class I like you all to see this, Miss. Sekkio and Miss. Winters have worked together to make a firewall to keep other people out of their account."
Everyone gathered at their computer to see the firewall. Kara and Miroki turned to see the boy glaring at them.
Kara whispered to Miroki, "I swear that guy is ready to scream bloody murder at us."
"You think? I'd like to know why he was deleting our stuff." Miroki rolled her eyes at him.
"So what are you going to do about it? We don't have any proof."
"Well, why not just go, and get some answers out of him." Miroki started walking up to him.
Kara grabbed her shoulder, "Are you nuts? That guy looks to kill."
Too late Miroki was already staring face to face at him. Kara held her breath, thankfully someone had answered Kara's silent prayer, and the bell rang for the class to end. Breathing out Kara grabbed Miroki, heading to their next class, Chemistry. Unlike before their seats were already assigned to them. Miroki was seated behind Kara, when Kara got to her seat; there was a boy already there.
"Excuse me, could you move over?" Kara asked the girl with the long braid.
What she got shocked her. The girl was a guy. To be more exact a guy with a long chestnut brown braid, with violet eyes. One name came to mind.
"Duo Maxwell." Kara thought to herself.
"Sure, there's a seat right beside me. What's your name?"
Kara snapped out of her thoughts, "Kara Winters."
He shook her hand, "Duo Maxell, please to meet ya."
Numbly Kara sat in her chair, trying not to stare at the boy called Duo. She felt a tap on her shoulder; she turned to have a note shoved into her hand.
Taking the note it read: Duo Maxwell eh? Try to explain this one Kara, how many guys have meter long braids in this school?
Kara put her head in her hand, "This is not happening, this is so not happening." Kara thought to herself.
"Hey there are you alright?"
The speaker snapped Kara out of thoughts again, "I'm fine Duo, just thinking," adding silently to herself, "Thinking how crazy all of this is."
"Good wouldn't want my lab partner faint on me." Duo grins.
"Lab partner?" Kara's voice went up.
"Yep, you and me are lab partners. Hope you're good at this stuff, I hear that Mrs. Bender is a tough teacher. She kind of reminds me of a friend of mine, he's pretty cold, but he's okay. Trust me you never want to piss this guy off, he'll give you a meanest glare you've ever seen."
Kara looked up at Duo, "Glare? He wouldn't be by any chance have cold blue eyes and unruly brown hair, would he?"
"That's right, how do you know?" Duo asked.
"I have him for computer class, he gave my friend the 'glare'. She just went off and asked him what's his problem."
Kara could have sworn that Duo's eyes got wider, "She told him that? Man wish I was there, that's the first person I've heard of standing up to Heero like that."
Kara nearly toppled off her chair, "Heero?"
"Yea, Heero Yuy, that's his name."
Kara felt another tap on her shoulder, Miroki have her another note. This one read: Told you so.
She steadily breathed in and out, trying not to panic. Kara was only mildly aware that Duo was still talking; he was talking how Heero drove him nuts. The teacher didn't seem to pay much attention, so Duo kept rambling on and on. Kara got another note. It read: Does he ever shut up!?!
Trying to pay attention to what was going on in the class, Kara just cast a side-glance at her ranting partner. She shut her eyes hoping to shut out the talking, and for the second time that day. Kara made a silent prayer, for someone to help her. A loud thump made Kara open her eyes again, she looked over her shoulder to find Duo had fallen off his seat, with the tradition dizzy eyes. Looking further over her shoulder revealing Miroki dusting off her textbook, and putting it back in her bag. Kara wrote at note to Miroki saying: Thank you, I felt like going crazy.
Thankfully for the both of them, the rest of the class went by without other weird thing happening, and in peace. When the bell rang, Duo have woken up and asked the girls if they would join him for lunch.
"Duo are you sure this is such a good idea?" Kara whispered to him nervously.
Duo looked strangely back at her, "Don't worry, why do you ask?"
"Well… Heero and Miroki didn't really get off to a good start."
He grinned, "Come on, what's the worse that could happen?"
A few minutes later Kara and Miroki sat on one side of the table, while Duo and Heero on the other side. Heero and Miroki were in a glaring contest; Kara and Duo were quietly eating watching the two. Kara could see that Duo was sweatdropping, at the scene before them. The contestants didn't blink, didn't move, it was as if one wrong move would send them at each other's throat. Kara was thinking about doing something about this, but thought better of it. Duo seemed to be thinking the same thing. When the bell rang, the two blinked, gave each other one final glare before stalking off to their classes.
They both sat down beside each other, both Kara and Miroki stared at the people in front of them. There were two boys in the front of the classroom preparing to do a duet. One boy had light blond hair, while the other had brown hair with long bangs.
"Miroki, please tell me I'm not seeing this."
"What I don't see anything, I just see two boys that look like Quatre and Trowa in front of the class with a violin and flute."
"………"
The teacher walked up to the front of the class, "Class today we will see what all of you are capable of. You will perform in front of the class. Quatre Winner and Trowa Barton is offering to do a duet together for us, so please listen."
Taking that cue the two boys started playing, the girls would have started talking about the two boys, but the music was so nice that they decided to just listen. When they were done they took their seats behind Kara and Miroki. With this seating it made it impossible to talk about them.
"Okay, Miroki Sekkio will be playing now with her Chinese piano."
Quatre was relieved that he wasn't in front of the class anymore. He wasn't really paying attention, though he normally does, he was wondering who out of all the students would be the chosen Gundam pilots. The sound of music got his attention, he looked to the front of the classroom to see Miroki there playing the Chinese piano. Quatre stopped thinking about the problems ahead, and instead listened to the music that Miroki was making. It was only after the music was done that Quatre noticed that Trowa was tapping his shoulder.
"Quatre, after school we need be at the after school activities, the other students are suppose to be graded to see which could be a Gundam pilot." Trowa informed him.
"Okay, have the other teachers reported in about their students yet?"
Trowa shook his head, "No, the first report won't come in till the end of the month."
"Okay next up is Kara Winters."
Both G-boys looked up to see Kara walk up on stage. Nervously nodded then started.
When I'm lost in the rain
In your eyes I know
I'll find the light to light my way
When I'm scared, losing ground
When my world is going crazy
You can turn it all around and when I'm down you're there
Pushing me to the top
You're always there giving me all you got
For a shield from the storm
For a friend
For a love to keep me safe and warm
I turn to you
For the strength to be strong
For the will to carry on
For everything is true
For everything you do
I turn to you
Kara sighed in relief that she was done, she had always loved those lyrics, and knew them by heart. Sitting back down, she was just happy that it was over, that is till the teacher came up with a project.
"That was wonderful class, now I have this group project for all of you. You and another person will do a duet. I will give you the music and you have three weeks before you will perform in front of the whole school."
Miroki and Kara paled at the 'whole school' part.
"Now for partners Miss. Sekkio you will be partnered with Mr. Winner, and Miss. Winters you will be partnered with Mr. Barton."
If it was humanly possible, which it was both girls became even paler. Then they remembered what they had talked about before school started, and turned very red. They stared at each other with their mouths hanging open. Put it mildly they were in such shock that they barely noticed the bell rang. The only thing that snapped them out of their daze state was a light tapping on their shoulders. Both girls looked up to see Quatre and Trowa looking down at them. It took a lot out of the girls not to faint, but it took even more just to talk to them, and not to blush like crazy. Kara carefully stood up.
"So I guess we're partners now." Kara stated levelly.
Trowa nods, and Quatre spoke up, "Well, we got our music sheets, but we can't practice at our place, so we were wondering if we could practice at your house."
"Why am I not surprise of course you don't want us there, you're Gundam pilots." Kara thought to herself, aloud, "Sure, I think we can, every other practice we'll go to Miroki's and the other's we'll go to my house okay?"
"Okay." Quatre chirped.
"Good you guys can meet at my house first." Miroki spoke up after getting her bearings.
So with that they parted their separate ways. After school both girls were waiting with all of the other students.
"Hey girls! What's up?"
They turned their heads to see Duo walking up to them with Heero in tow, "Hi Duo!"
The minute that Duo caught up with the girls, Miroki and Heero started glaring at each other again.
"Oh boy, here they go again." Duo sighs.
"Kara! Miroki!"
Kara watched as Quatre and Trowa walked up to them.
Trowa watched the glaring contest, "What are they doing?"
"Heero doesn't get along very well with Miroki." Kara explained.
"But she's glaring right back at Heero." Quatre exclaimed.
"I know, Miroki doesn't take insults or glares from anyone. Trust me, I know; the last guy that insulted her got punched in the gut."
"Ah." Trowa nodded.
At that moment a woman walked across the field. Kara gasped at what she saw, and was thankful that none of the boys noticed. Without thinking of the consequences walked over the little glaring contest and pulled Miroki away from Heero. Heero gave Kara the famous 'glare of death'; Kara just looked back, and firmly kicked him in the shin, before walking away again. The G-boys that were watching sweatdropped at the scene.
"Okay everyone, today we will be doing Martial Arts. The first pair up will be Chang Wufei and Miroki Sekkio."
"Uh oh, man why Wufei of all people? He'll probably insult Miroki." Kara thought to herself.
She watched along with the rest of the G-boys as Miroki and Wufei made their way down to the center of the field. Wufei was slightly taken back, that he was going to fight a girl; in fact he seemed to take that as an insult.
"So this is what they give me to fight, a weak woman." Wufei spatted.
"Here we go…" Kara murmured.
"What did you call me?" Miroki started getting ready to fight.
"If you know what's good for you don't answer…" Kara said quietly.
"I told you woman, I don't fight…"
Miroki had already grabbed Wufei and gave him a backflip. Wufei being caught off guard, jumped back up, gave her a few quick punches. She ducked, then gutted him, the swept him off his feet. Taking this cue, Miroki decked him, hard.
"Told you so…" Kara shook her head.
Miroki smirked, "Beaten by a weak woman."
Duo was howling in laughter, "I can't believe it, she took him down just like that, and she's a girl!"
Heero smirked, "Well, she's not half bad, maybe they'll pick her."
"What in the heck did he mean by that?" Kara thought.
Trowa smirked too, "There goes Wufei's pride."
Quatre shook his head and smiled, "That will teach him for calling women weak, he's been asking for it."
Kara ran down the field, where Miroki was, and Wufei was muttering something about injustice. The two friends grinned, the rest of the day went by, but both Kara and Miroki had a few questions on their minds that needed answering.
