Wanna Switch With Me, Hitomi?

Chapter 2- Wanna Switch?
Disclaimer- I don't own Escaflowne. And if I did, Van would be MINE, nobody else's. Oh, and I live in Washington (not DC, but the state).
*The Mystic Moon. Washington. The next day*
Kristina sat in her Japanese class, bored as hell, even though she had Nicole to help with conversations. "So, Kristina. You think you can beat the crap out of that dumbass, Josh?" Nicole asked. All that came out of Kristina's mouth was, "Uh-huh." Nicole tried again, "I mean he is 11 months older than you, not to mention that he's your cousin." "Uh-huh." Was all that came out of Kristina's mouth. Now Nicole was angry.
"Are you listening to me?"
"Uh-huh."
"Are you sure?"
"Uh-huh."
"How old are you?"
"Uh-huh."
"See Kristina! I knew you weren't listening to me!"
Kristina then turned to Nicole and asked, "Sorry, what did you say, Nicole?" "Argh! Forget it!" Nicole grumbled. Then the sensei walked in.
"Ohayo Gozaimasu, Minna-san." Sensei began, "Today we will be working on our..." "Katakana, Hiragana, and phrases." Kristina said along with him. Then she thought, "God, we do the same thing every day!" Sensei then stopped, looked at Kristina, and said very angrily, "Kristina! Be quiet!" "Hai, Sensei." Kristina said as her teacher went on with his lecture.
After he was done, Kristina went up to the pencil sharpener, banged her knee on the corner of a wall HARD (A/N: And believe me, that really hurts!), and screamed, "Kuso!" Everyone in the room stopped what they were doing. "Kristina, what did you say?!?" Sensei yelled from across the room. Kristina, unaware that her teacher had heard her, held her knee and kept crying out, "Kuso! Kuso! Kuso!" By the time she quit crying, "Kuso!" A piece of paper- detention paper- was put in her hands. "Ah, dammit!" Kristina yelled. The entire class gasped and Sensei sent the poor girl out in the hall for a minute.
When she stepped out into the hall, a strange, golden light covered her and brought her to a new place. One where she'd meet a new person very soon...
*Gaea, Van's castle. Same day, same time. *
Hitomi was rested up and totally refreshed. The only thing she hated doing at the time was listening to Merle, as she tried talking to Hitomi. "Hitomi! Allen and Celena are coming over!" Merle told Hitomi. All that came out of Hitomi's mouth was, "Uh-huh." Merle then said, "I mean, you COULD at least put on something nice." Again, all that came out of Hitomi's mouth was, "Uh-huh." Now Merle was annoyed.
"Hitomi, are you listening to me?"
"Uh-huh."
"Are you sure?"
"Uh-huh."
"Where are you from?"
"Uh-huh."
"See, Hitomi! I knew that you weren't listening."
Hitomi turned to Merle and asked, "What? Did you say something, Merle?" "Argh! Forget it!" Merle screamed. Then Van and Allen walked into the room.
"Good morning, Hitomi and Merle." Allen said politely to the girls in the room. Hitomi sighed. Her day was already bad enough, now the playboy, Allen, was over for a visit. Hitomi hated Allen, although she had to admit that he DID help her and Van save Gaea. Allen was always going after women. It was disgusting, so she stayed away from him all the time.
Celena was just staring at everyone, not saying anything. That began to freak Hitomi out. "Celena, do you want to go for a walk through town with me?" Merle asked the silent girl. Celena shook her head and quietly said, "I'd like to go through the gardens." Merle smiled, turned to Hitomi, and asked, "You wanna come too, Hitomi?" Hitomi shook her head. Then Merle and Celena left for the gardens.
Van and Allen went to an empty room to talk about how to get Hitomi back to the Mystic Moon. Hitomi was alone. Suddenly, a golden light covered her and brought her to a new world to get her wish.
*Empty Room. New World*
"Itai!" Hitomi cried as she hit the ground, her eyes closed. "Are you okay?" A voice asked. Hitomi opened her green eyes and saw a 16 year old girl with blue eyes holding out her hand to Hitomi. "Arigato. I'm fine." Hitomi said as she grabbed the girl's hand, which helped her off the ground. "My name is Hitomi. What's yours?" Hitomi asked. The girl smiled and said, "Kristina."
Hitomi was at least 4 inches taller than Kristina. Hitomi's hair was short and sandy-blonde while Kristina's was semi-long and auburn. Also, Hitomi's eyes were green and filled with patience while Kristina's were blue and filled with attitude. They didn't care, though. As long as their wishes came true.
"So, how did you get here?" Kristina asked the taller girl. "My friends left for meetings and I was teleported here when I was alone. What about you?" Hitomi told Kristina. "I got in trouble for swearing in my Japanese class and was teleported here after being sent out into the hall." Kristina answered. Hitomi's eyes got wide.
"Are you...from Earth?"
"Yeah."
"Are you...from Japan?"
"No. I'm from America."
"Oh." Hitomi's face fell.
Then a door opened.
A tall man walked through the doorway and looked at the two girls, who were 3 and 7 inches shorter than him. It didn't take long for Kristina to recognize him. "Jayson?!?" She yelled at the man...who was her cousin's older brother. "Hello Kristina." The man answered calmly. "What the hell are you doing here?!?" Kristina asked. "Yesterday, the two of you made a wish. Kristina wanted to switch places with Hitomi for a week and Hitomi wanted to switch places with a 16 year old girl on Earth for a week. Do you want to make the switch?" Jayson asked.
"Jayson, why the hell are you doing this job?!?"
"Look, I need money."
"How much are you being paid?"
"$500."
"No wonder."
"Okay, do you both want to make the switch or not."
Both Kristina and Hitomi said, "We do." Jayson smiled and said, "Then shake hands. Once you do, Kristina will be on Gaea and Hitomi will be on Earth for one week." The two girls smiled at each other and shook hands.
A golden light shone on them and transported Kristina to Van's castle and Hitomi to the hallway of OHHS. Both girls were unaware of how hard their week would be.
End Chapter 2
A/N: Okay, that was my next chapter. In chapter 3, Hitomi and Kristina (me) will survive their first day in their different lives. R/R please. Oh, and these are the translation for some of the Japanese words I used in this story:
Kuso = shit
Arigato = Thank you
Ohayo Gozaimasu = Good morning
Minna-san = Everyone
Itai = Ouch
Katakana = type of Japanese writing
Hiragana = type of Japanese writing
