Dragon Knights: Alternate Dimension
Chapter 1: Transfer Students?
Hohohoho! My first DK fic ^^ I don't own any of the following characters! The wonderful Mineko Ohkami does! ^o^ I actually thought of this up while doing an RP with a friend…*coughs* Well, this fic is first set placed in a regular high school in Japan, first starting out with Kitchel and Cesia. Rath, Thatz, and Rune transfer over later and they soon run into a lot of the some of the other DK characters. This is a little twist to the DK story because rather than have starting out in the DK world, it starts out on Earth and they are later transported to Draqueen and find out about the truth about themselves! It follows the storyline at some points, though I mighta changed the characters' personality a LITTLE, but I've only read up to Vol. 6…so if I put something that actually DOES happen in the manga that will come out in the future well it was all coincidence or some freaky ESP o.O READ ON!

"Cesia-chaaaaaan!!! Hurry up!!"
"Hai! Coming!"
The young girl quickly dashed down the stairs, grabbed her school bag, and ran out the door, her long, golden yellow hair streaming behind her. Her friend was waiting outside, her bright, green eyes staring out at nothing.
"Ready?" Kitchel asked her slightly out of breath friend.
"Yeah, lets go!" Cesia answered as she straightened her school uniform and started walking.
They walked down the empty street, normal for that time of day in the early hours of the morning. The two girls talked about the upcoming events at school, but Cesia's attention strayed from her friend to one of the houses that had been up for sale for a while now. She stopped and blinked. The For Sale sign now had "Sold" in front of it.
"Cesia-chan?" Kitchel looked over and noticed the sign. "Oh, looks like you'll have new neighbors!"
"It seems so…" Cesia said distractedly. "I wonder who moved in? Must have moved in during the weekend. We should welcome them later."
"Who used to live in there?" Kitchel asked as they resumed walking to school.
Cesia furrowed her eyebrows in thought. "Um…I'm not…quite sure, really! That house has been for sale for a while now…almost a year, I think. I've never really known the neighbors in this area…my parents never invited anyone over or anything…"
"Hm, well then, all the more reason to meet them! And who knows? Maybe there are some cute boys there!" Kitchel added starry-eyed.
Cesia smiled and giggled at her friend. "Maybe…but we better get going! We have to clean up the classroom before school, remember?"
Kitchel placed a hand to her head. "Right, right."
They continued walking and entered the gate to the large private high school. The name "Ryuken High" was engraved on the right side of the massive gates, the left side bearing the names of the founders of the school. The giant marble clock on the center tower read thirty 'til seven.
"What? Only seven thirty?! Arrrgghhh!! I woke up too early!!" Kitchel sighed exasperatingly.
Cesia laughed. "Really? I'm usually here before now…"
Kitchel stared at her. "You're joking right?!"
"Yes, I am!" Cesia laughed. "But it's good to be a little extra early for the morning clean-up…you never know what mess might have come up."
Kitchel shook her short, orangey-brownish hair as they changed their shoes. "Tch, yeah I remember last time! The people who were supposed to clean up the class after school forgot to!"
Her friend just smiled as they climbed up the stairs and walked to their classroom. Kitchel went to sweeping and rearranging the desks while Cesia cleaned the chalkboard. They didn't have much to do and were soon finished. The two girls glanced at the clock. It was five 'til eight. Still having around thirty minutes left until the class started, they decided to take a walk outside.
Exiting the school, Cesia looked up and brushed her golden bangs out of her eyes. The early birds were singing in the trees and there was a light breeze blowing through the trees. It was a perfect day for a Monday morning. She stood for a moment and felt the wind around her. It felt almost…homey to her and felt as if she could actually take hold of it if she reached out. She closed her eyes and embraced the wind, feeling it flow through and around her body. Why do I feel so…peaceful…?
"Cesia-chan? Cesia-chaaaan!!" Kitchel said for the eleventh time. She looked at her friend concerned when she opened her eyes. "Were you day dreaming or something? You were just standing there with this peaceful look on your face."
"Ah, gomen ne, K-chan," Cesia said sweatdropping. "I was just, um, thinking about something…"
Kitchel blinked. "Oh? About what?"
"Um…nothing really important," she said smiling.
Kitchel shrugged and they continued walking through the school grounds. They soon reached the garden that connected to the central park around the school. As they walked through the paths, Cesia blinked. Lying on a branch was a red haired boy with an odd white lock of hair on the far right of his bangs. He was just lying there, a bird resting on an outstretched finger. They have never seen him around here before and concluded that he must have just transferred. He flicked his finger gently and as the bird flew away he sat up and turned to them, his pale red eyes looking at them.
It was when his eyes locked onto hers that Cesia felt a strange pang inside her. She took a step back and Kitchel blinked, looking at her friend. Even though she wasn't looking at him, Cesia could still feel him staring at her. What is wrong with me? Why do I feel this way? Kitchel's voice suddenly sounded as if she were miles away and just as suddenly she felt herself return back to reality. She blinked and looked back to where the strange boy was. He had disappeared.
"Cesia-chan?" Kitchel repeated worriedly. "Cesia-chan, daijobu ka?"
Cesia blinked and staggered a bit. "Yes…yes I'm alright…I just felt a little dizzy…that's all." She couldn't tell her friend what she had really felt. It was almost as if his eyes were probing into her soul, trying to figure something out. She didn't want to worry her friend any more than she had to.
The five-minute warning bell rang from the school and the two girls hurried back to their class. Cesia barely heard the girls talking about the new transfer students that were coming to their class as she sat down, still deep in her own puzzling thoughts. Everything seemed to pass quickly right by her and it was only Kitchel's poking her arm that jolted her from her reverie to answer the roll. She listened to her teacher's announcement of the new transfer students, already feeling her head clearing up, and waited half-expectantly, half-excitedly for them to enter. She did not have to wait long.
The girls swooned when the three handsome guys entered on after the other, the guys groaning when they realized that there were no cute girls joining.
The first one who entered had long, blond hair, his light amber eyes surveying the classroom like a new teacher to a new classroom. He looked a little stressed out but, Cesia thought, he had a gentle look about him.
The second one had a jade green type of hair and similar eye coloring, a scar running across his face down the left from the top to the bottom of his cheek, a small x-shaped scar below his left eye. Despite the scars, he looked like someone you'd find having a good time with his friends, with a hint of a thievish look.
Cesia's eyes widened when she saw the third enter. The red hair, the piercing pale red eyes, and the odd white lock…it was the same guy that was in the park earlier this morning. He didn't look directly at her, but she could sense him glancing at her occasionally.
"Students, meet Rune, Thatz, and Rath," the teacher said respectively. His voice sounded miles away to Cesia, and automatically replied along with the class.

Kinna short, but good enough I think ^-^ For the character descriptions, I just chose some of the designs Mineko Ohkami had. I don't think she has a specific color code for the characters, because Rath's hair changes from red to green to orange to blue to purple and so on and so forth. Rune was easier. It's a given that he has light colored hair so I chose the blonde out of the white, blue, or blonde colors. Thatz's hair also changes from orangey-yellow to blue to red and to green. I chose green because I think that would just fit him better and I see him with that color more. Cesia was either gonna be golden yellow, pink, or purple. I chose the golden yellow since that made a little more sense…and easier to picture I guess. Kitchel is probably the only one who's hair color didn't really change o.O; Well beside the Dragon Officers and the demons…but we're not there yet . Same thing with the eyes. It seems that she matched the color of the eyes with the hair color, so I kinda did that, too. Er if I spelled any Japanese words wrong, apology in advance!! I'm only using it a little…so that should lower the mistake rate a lot .o; Well, review :D Tell me what you think ^-^
