I LOVE THE VIOLET STREAK
CHAPTER FOUR: FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL
~* 7:00 a.m.: Monday: Tokyo, Japan *~
The clock sounded with a song through out the darken room. A curtain drew closed on the windows, and rolling aimlessly on the computer desk was a violet lipstick. The computer desk sat in-between two closets; a door was beside the right closet. A purple computer sat on the desk and to the right of the room was another door linking to a private washroom. Almost everywhere, on the walls and on small tables, sat lamps of all shapes, sizes and colours.
Purple bedspread covered a girl who was switching her C.D./Radio alarm clock to the first song, "Stole" by Kelly Rowland. The C.D. she bought a week ago in the mall... the same time she met that boy who almost got away with her pens.
She slowly got up from her bed, as her soft black hair brushed her weary face when realization dawned her, today was the first day of school. She gave a frustrated sigh as she threw open her closet doors, revealing school uniforms all in a row, all her other outfits were in her other giant closet. Then a scowl appeared on her face when she felt the cold wood under her feet.
Carelessly she grabbed a uniform and went into her private washroom, and the next thing you heard was the rush of water filling the bathtub. After a few minutes, Hotaru Tomoe came out fresh and new, wearing her Mugen High School uniform.
She then took a remote control on the desk beside her bed and turned her Radio louder when "Dilemma" by Nelly featuring Kelly Rowland came on. Then she hastily set the remote control on the desk and took a key from its secret hiding place, inside one of her least favourite lamps.
Hotaru went down on her knees and went under her bed. She drew her left hand in a fist and punched one of the wooden tiles lightly, not making a sound. It popped open, revealing a small storage place. She took a laser knife, a compounded laptop in a shape of a harmless rectangle, a lock pick and a teleport pad that connected to her computer.
"Hotaru, are you up?" the familiar voice of Hakura asked her.
Hotaru closed her secret compartment, stored her stuff in a stealth pocket, deep in her book bag as she replied, "Yes, Hakura, I'm awake." She then quickly put the key into her pocket.
"Come down for breakfast," Hakura told her.
"Alright," Hotaru said as she turned her radio clock off.

Trowa walked down to the breakfast table quietly, thought quiet wasn't the word to describe the morning since Duo was laughing his head off. Relena was talking to the ignoring Heero, who was typing on his laptop once again. Quartre was reading the daily newspaper and Wufei was telling Duo to shut his mouth.
"Morning Trowa," Relena greeted him.
He nodded his head slightly as she went back to the one-way conversation she was having with Heero. Trowa then sat down and a servant placed a plate full of food before him as if on cue.
He smoothed a napkin on his school uniform, and it was way better than the Sanq Kingdom High School uniforms. Trowa then began to eat.
~*~*~
They were in the limo now. Since Michiru and Hakura were four years older than her, they didn't need to attend school with her, but they escorted her anyway.
The song "Family Portrait" by Pink was on when Hotaru took the key from her pocket as the limo stopped at a red light. She quickly pulled off her seatbelt, went on her knees and unlocked a secret compartment under her seat with her key. Before the limo began to move, she took four cameras, the size of a small button, with her and two guns.
"Getting prepared I see," Hakura said with a smirk, obviously amused.
"I heard Relena was attending school with me. Of course I have to be prepared, just in case," Hotaru told them as she closed the compartment, put the key in her pocket and climbed back into her seat.
"Be careful," was the only thing Michiru said as the limo pulled into the school's parking lot.
"What of the new organization?" Hotaru asked, suddenly growing serious. She placed her new stuff into her book bag.
"Ami will inform you," Michiru said. It was then that Hakura opened the door for Hotaru. She gave a nod to the blonde and strapped her book bag onto her shoulders.
"Seeya then," Hotaru waved goodbye. She let out another sigh while she walked to the group she hung around with.
"Hotaru," acknowledged Rei.
"How are the new pilots?" Hotaru asked her most skilled pilot and driver in a low voice.
"They're coming on well," Rei replied.
"The new weapons?" Hotaru directed the question to Minako.
"A OK," Minako replied enthusiastically while holding a peace sigh up.
"The hacking?" Hotaru said.
"The new organization's security don't stand a chance," Makoto said with a grin.
"That reminds me, Ami?" Hotaru questioned.
They began to walk to class cause it was then that the bell sounded. Ami smiled and informed, "At lunch."
Hotaru nodded as she made her way to History class. While traveling her way through the swarm of people, she suddenly crashed into someone, making his textbooks fall out of his steady grasp.
"Sorry," she apologized as she picked some books up.
"It's alright," he said in monotone.
She looked up and meet his emerald eyes, "You're new."
"Yeah... I am," he said.
"Name's Hotaru Tomoe," she introduced as she stuck her hand out towards him.
"Trowa Barton," he replied as he took her hand and shook it.
"Well seeya later, I gotta get to class," she told him.
Trowa nodded mindlessly as she walked away, his hand still shivering under their slight contact with hers. He then shook his head and walked towards Science class.
Hotaru's hand tingled faintly under the sudden touch from that boy. She just shrugged it off and opened the door to the History classroom, only to make eye contact with her top advisor, her only advisor, Setsuna Meiou... her History teacher.
Hotaru nodded towards Setsuna's way and when she got a nod back she went to take a seat... right beside the boy, "You..."
"Hello again," he replied quietly.
"How are the pens I purchased?" Hotaru asked with a frown.
"Quite well thank you," he answered coolly.
"Hotaru Tomoe," she said, giving her name.
"Heero Yuy," he gave his name in return.
She gave him a satisfied nod and then started to pay attention to the lecture Setsuna was giving.
