The two teenagers ran through the doors and into the huge building.
Stopping briefly to ask for directions they hurried up a flight of stairs.
"Hurry up. We're late!" Hope called back to her brother as they walked quickly down the long corridor to their class.
It was their first day at High School but already things weren't going to plan. Destiny quickened his pace to walk beside her.
"Feels weird doesn't it?" "What?" "Being in the 21st century. The way Dawn's friends went on about it before we left you'd think it was the stone- age." Hope nodded, "I know what you mean, it's not quite how I remembered it but it doesn't seem as bad as the Federation officers made out."
They had reached the door now and taking a breath pushed it open.
They now saw a woman in a pastel dress standing in front of rows of desks but there were no computers of any sort in the room. They walked in together and the see of faces turned to look at them. Strange to see only humans Destiny thought.
Hope was now addressing the teacher, "Sorry we are late madam." She shook her head but smiled, "I feel old enough without being called madam, my name is Mrs White. I've already taken the register so could you give me your names." She said picking up what appeared to be a paper file. "Hope &." "Destiny Blackstone." Destiny finished for her.
Now the other pupils were frowning in confusion or looked amused, a few giggled as the twins said their names. Mrs White nodded and motioned them to take their seats.
Destiny and Hope sat together in the only remaining seats next to each other.
Mrs White started o write on the board but most eyes stayed on them for some time. It was not hard to see they were twins, both had the same wavy brown hair and blue eyes.
Behind them Joss kept returning his gaze to Hope. It was a sweet name he thought. Hope and Destiny was a bit weird though, strange names together. Well Destiny was certainly a strange name.
Mrs White stepped back to pick a textbook off her desk. "Yes! Physics!" Hope exclaimed while Destiny groaned. "I don't think I can take physics on a Monday morning!" his sister rolled her eyes, Destiny had never liked the sciences very much. He could do them well enough but lacked any interest for it.
Destiny looked up at the writing on the board; it was all too easy. He returned to his attention to his work and wrote down his answers. "Hope, how's it so far?" She rolled her eyes, "I'm so bored I could kill myself! We know all this!"
Joss, who was behind them couldn't help him-self on overhearing her complain, "I thought you liked physics?"
Hope spun round in her seat and pinned him with her azure blue eyes. "I do but this is just common knowledge! Why are we just learning about our solar system's attributes?" Joss frowned in puzzlement, "'Cos it's the only one we know anything about perhaps?!"
Destiny nudged her to stop her reveal too much information. "Maybe here." Hope retorted.
