A/N: I finally updated.!. Also, I decided not to base this on 'Whatever It Takes' anymore.

CHAPTER ONE
Yolei breathed in the cool afternoon air of the planet Earth. It was so much different from "home".
'I'll just have to get used to it,' she peered around the corner of the alleyway that she was in. 'because it looks like I'll be here for awhile.'
Yolei sighed and observed the sight that met her eyes: a little girl about five was tugging at her mother's hand towards an ice cream shop, a teenage boy was
impatiently waiting for someone off to one side, a middle-aged woman was arguing loudly with a sales clerk about the price of yams. . .
She teared her eyes away from the Humans and returned to the task at hand. 'I have to find Matt.' She thought. She closed her eyes, concentrating on sensing Matt's
presence. "Got him!" Yolei declared to herself a few moments later.
It was as she was making her way out of the alley that it hit her: she wasn't wearing Human clothing. Yolei smacked her forehead with the palm of her hand.
'Duh. How could I have forgotten? They would freak out if they saw what I was wearing now.'
/CHANGE/ Yolei recited. With a shimmer of red light, her attire changed completely. She now had on black jeans, black boots, a red t-shirt, and glasses. Yolei looked
down at herself and smiled. "Well, this should be good enough." She said to no one in particular. Taking a deep breath, she walked out of the alley and into the
streets.
Yolei stared at all the shops and stores in wide-eyed wonder. This was the very first and probably the only time that she was ever going to be here. And she wanted
to pay very close attention to everything, take everything in, and remember it always. . .
"Oh, excuse me." A warm, friendly voice said.
Yolei turned her head around to the speaker and stared at her blankly for second. It was the woman that the little girl was pulling towards the ice cream shop.
The woman took a step backwards. When Yolei didn't say anything, the woman said:
"I almost walked right into you."
Yolei blinked. ". . . Oh, no! I wasn't looking at where I was going! I'm sorry."
The woman smiled and chuckled. "I guess it really doesn't matter, does it? My name is Sue. This is my daughter Mimi." She held up her free hand.
"Uh, Yolei." Yolei shook Sue's hand. Sue was in her early twenties with long, chestnut hair; green eyes; and a light tan. Mimi was a five year old version of her mother
except for her eyes which were brown.
"Are you here for the first time? You were looking at everything with such curiosity and awe." Sue replied.
"Yeah. . . I'm staying with a relative for awhile." Yolei made up quickly. She was so proud of her quick thinking.
"Well, it must be tough to transfer to another school in the middle of the year. Are you in high school?" Sue asked politely. She gave Yolei a friendly smile.
"Yeah. A senior." Yolei added. Then thought, 'Matt should be a senior, I think.'
"My, the time sure does fly by. I remember my first day in high school. Terrifying." Sue glanced down at her daughter. Mimi had started pulling on her mother's skirt,
staring up at Yolei with pure excitement shining on her whole face.
"Mommy! She's an angel! A real angel!"
Sue looked back at Yolei with a startled expression. "I'm sorry. Mimi here has a very wild imagination." She picked up Mimi into her arms.
It took a moment to recover herself. "It's okay. I'm actually quite flattered. No one had ever said anything like to me before. Me, an angel. Ha ha. . . " Yolei said, scratching the back
of her neck.
Sue frowned. "Haven't your parents ever called you a princess or an angel?"
'Well, I really AM an angel.' Yolei thought. She sweatdropped. "Uh. . . er. . . my parents. . . they. . . um. . . you know. . . were never around."
Sue looked concerned. "I'm so sorry, honey. Bringing it up."
"Forget about it. " Yolei replied. "I have to go."
"Oh, it was nice meeting you. And if you ever need anyone to talk to or anything at all, I live right over there. Apartment 3B." Sue offered.
Yolei smiled at her. "Thanks. Bye." Sue waved and walked off.
'It looks like I made a new friend.' She thought to herself, watching Sue and Mimi cross the street.
Yolei returned to the task at hand. She decided that she wouldn't teleport to where Matt was, she wanted to see the sights. About fifteen minutes later, Yolei stood in
front of a three story buliding. She put her hand on the doorknob but, stopped when she heard a voice singing. She smiled. It was Matt singing.
". . . It may not always be that way
You can take nothing for granted. . ."
With confidence, Yolei turned the knob and went inside.
