A Day for Umi

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

Another school day, another boring lecture, and another homeroom lesson with the strictest and most abhorred teacher on campus, and by the coming of the second semester Umi was thinking of dropping out of this school the only thing that was stopping her was the hard work her parents put into raising her up. She loved her parents dearly and didn't want to disappoint them in any way. She was looking out the window, daydreaming and thinking...

'*Sigh* a sunny day and I'm stuck in the classroom of the teacher from hell' she looked higher.

'Cloud shaped like a star...cloud shaped like a moon...cloud shaped like a...cloud...cloud shaped like Cephiro, WHAT THE!!!' she mentally slapped herself

'*Sigh* of all the things, why Cephiro?' she closed her eyes, she was catching some of the things her teacher said; one of the things she learned from this teacher. While your mind wanders keep one of your ears open to the present. A very useful lesson. Fourth period (the one just before lunch) was just about over and her teacher was about to announce something.

'C'mon, I'm starving already hurry up, hurry up.' She was getting irritated, when the name of other schools caught her attention her head automatically turned towards the direction of her teacher. Otome no Hi and Kaze no Chikyu 'Hm? The schools of Hikaru and Fuu.'

"Okay class listen up this field trip is one of the opportunities we have of showing these schools that we are the best." His voice turned threatening "NOW if any of you mess up and humiliate this school, be warned that I will haunt you to the ends of the earth." His voice returned to it's usual droll manner "Oh yes I almost forgot, there will be another class there, a foreign exchange class from the US. Now THESE kids, these kids you will make friends with and become close to GET IT!!!" the class was silent, stunned, at their teachers ferocity. "Okay very good." The bell rang "Class dismissed."

AFTER SCHOOL

~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~

Umi screamed her blonde haired comrades name across the busy and noisy room. "FUU!!! OVER HERE C'MON!!!"

"My Miss Umi, You do not have to scream my name, it is highly embarrassing." She bowed down in respects to the crimson haired not-so-young-anymore-lady beside Umi "Good morning Miss Hikaru" (*sigh* can't you just imagine Fuu's smile as she greets?)

Umi sweat dropped "It's not like anyone is paying any attention anyways, it's too noisy in here, and beside--" Umi was cut off by a now bright red, hungry Hikaru.

"Ehehehehe, sorry guys but I'm hungry can we order now?"

"As you wish our Lady Pillar Hikaru." Umi giggled.

"Mou, Umi-chan."

"Anyway, hey do you guys already know about the four school wide field trip?" Umi brought out a waiver for the field trip.

Fuu and Hikaru took out their own waivers, "Yup, we got it too, though only the few top selected students are going to be chosen."

"Really? Hm, I guess sensei 'forgot' to tell us about that part." She put an emphasis and physical quotation marks on the forgot part. "Though I know no matter what Fuu will be going." She teased. Fuu blushed her trademark blush.

"Ah, I'd say your going too Umi, I think your teacher also forgot to mention that the captains and best players of each sport club is also coming, and aren't you the captain of the fencing club."

Umi sighed "I think sensei is purposefully 'forgetting' to mention those things to us."

There was a short pause "ANYway changing the subject of my 'forgetful' teacher from hell, does anyone know about this OTHER school?"

Fuu took out a notebook "Hm, as much people as I have asked, including the teachers, there is little known about this class or the school it came from," she paused and looked up from her notebook "only that they come from a school called Schola Solaris, School of the sun." she brightened up "But I'm sure they are a friendly sort."

Umi lay back on her chair, as much reassurance Fuu told Umi she couldn't stop imagining of a school that was highly strict, and students in tight clothes with their backs straight and always with a serious demeanor. She shivered. Umi looked at her watch. "My, my look at the time sorry gals but your pal's gotta go, I promised my mom I'd help her bake a cake. Bye" she took her belongings and left.

Despite the time Umi walked slowly, something had been nagging at her but she couldn't put a finger on it. Something she knew very, very well yet she couldn't place a finger on it. She mentally sighed again and looked up 'Hm, I seem to be sighing a lot lately, oh well...' she thought about Cephiro when suddenly *bonk* she hit a pole and landed on her butt "Owwwww..." she rubbed her forehead "stupid pole..." 'Hope no one saw though.' She blushed...But unfortunately for her someone DID see. A girl with raven hair approached her.

"Uh Miss? You okay?" Umi looked up at her, to her surprise the girl was a foreigner, who spoke very good Japanese at that. Her skin was tanned a bit but not golden. She was also very pretty, but her eyes were strange, it held a beauty in them that was very strange, they were a bright scarlet in color but also had tinges of other colors. "Miss?" she said when Umi wasn't responding.

"Uh, just fine." Umi responded then smiled. The girl suddenly noticed Umi's clothes.

"Hey isn't that the uniform from that private school, that's going to the field trip?" she pointed out Umi's uniform.

"Ack, the four school field trip?"

"Hai," the girl smiled "the one that we're going to. Ah sorry for being rude, I am Elaith Lesath." Elaith saw the expression on her face. "Uh Ehehehehe, I know how strange my name sounds to you but to me Japanese names are also confusing, sorry. You can just call me El if you wish." She offered her hand to Umi.

"Arigato. So you are from the mysterious class, that no one knows anything about."

"Eh? Hm, I guess the schools decided to keep it secret" she smiled "Ah well." She looked at Umi again "Ya sure your okay?"

"Hai, you don't have to worry about me. By the way my name is Umi Ryuuzaki."

"Hm, okay then I'd better go."

Umi thought of something "Hey could you come to my house tomorrow? Tell us about this school of yours. I know my best friends will be very interested."

"Uhhhh, we'll see, we're kinda on a hectic schedule until the field trip, I don't know if I could make it, I'll try my best though."

"Hm, okay call me when you have the time." Umi smiled took out a piece of paper and a pen, wrote her phone number and handed it to the girl. "Bye then."

"Bye."

When got home there was a message for her from El. That she could come the next day, and Umi called Hikaru and Fuu to come over also the next day.

*sigh* I can never make my fics so long, I can't write them so long and because I don't like really wasting my time on a fic sooooooooo long, I like reading my fics in one short sitting so I can read more stories, but more of I can't make them long ^^ besides, I wanted it in one chapter in more of Hikaru, in Umi and Fuu. And if I put everything here than I won't be able to do Fuu.

Hm, this chapter wasn't as good as the last one but still, I'm trying to do my best, sides tonight's NEW YEAR!!!
