FASH: This chapter won't be nearly as weird as the last, or as creepy.

Keely had bought a plane ticket, she really actually didn't care where she was going, but since she came on such short notice, the only one she could get was to some remote city in China. 'At least I'll be away.' She thought as she boarded the plane, not sure if she was ready for what was to come, but knowing anything would be better than the life she was leaving behind. 'Maybe, maybe this can be a new start.' She thought as she grasped at the pendant of her necklace. 'Surely anything would be better than my old life.'

Lee was practicing in the woods with his Galeon, he felt something approaching, he had a sort of sixth sense about these things. 'I wonder what is coming.' He was about to get Galeon, when a shrill voice broke his train of thought. "LEE! Where did you GO!" "Over here Mariah, no need to yell." He said as Galeon flew into his hand. Mariah appeared out of the branches, many twigs stuck in her hair. She was huffing and puffing, Lee held back his laughter, well, tried anyways. "Oh yea, you laugh it up, I am a woman, I need proper grooming!" She said as she started yanking at the twigs and leaves in her pink hair. "Mariah, you get enough grooming, ever since you and Rei got together you've been totally absorbed in your appearance, he went back with his teammates to Japan, he's not going to suddenly pop up out of nowhere and take you to a fancy restaurant or something." He said and Mariah fumed. "I just want to make sure my appearance doesn't have a melt down before summer when Rei comes back for vacation." Mariah said snidely as she crossed her arms. "Oh yea, there's only five months left of school." Lee smirked, it was nice to work alongside Rei once again, but Rei belonged with the Blade Breakers, they were good friends and shouldn't be separated ever again.

"Anyways, mom wants you home now, supper's ready." Mariah said as she examined her nails, she had just applied neon pink nail polish. 'They go so wonderfully with my hair!' She giggled to herself and skipped away, leaving Lee to wonder if all females were as weird as Mariah. 'Oh hell, they're probably worse.' He though as he made his way out of the woods and into the small rural city.

Keely got off the plane, looking around the rather small airport. 'One thing's for sure, my parents would never suspect I was here, not that they would even care if I was gone, their probably celebrating right now.' She glared darkly at the moving bodies in front of her as she took out her CD player and Hybrid Theory. 'Man, is Linkin Park my salvation or what.' She thought with a smirk. 'Crawling in my skin, these wounds they will not heal, fear is how I fall, confusing what is real.' She had a lot to do; she would have to apply to the local high school, even though there was only five months left, and she'd also have to get an apartment. 'Thank God Grandmother specifically left me certain things in the will, if she said it was to be divided among us I'm sure my family wound have kept everything from me.' She smiled as she grasped onto her locket again.

Mariah was still skipping along, eyes closed in bliss, having no clue where she was going, so she also had no clue that when she turned the corner that someone would be walking along and that she would bump into them, so... CRASH

Keely winced from her position of the ground. 'What the hell, does no one watch where they are going?' She asked herself as she glared at the pick haired girl on the ground across from her.

"What the hell! Don't you watch where you're going?" Mariah yelled at the girl as she opened her eyes, then she gulped as red eyes narrowed dangerously at her. "Funny, I was just about to as you that." Keely said. 'Man this girl has an affinity to pink.' Mariah was looking over Keely, tight black tank top, short shirt with two buckles on the side, and huge black boots that went up to her knees with three buckles on each. Keely slowly got up on her feet and made her way around Mariah, who seethed. 'How dare she not help me up! I am going to make that girl's life a living hell!' She thought as she got up, brushed her light pink pants off and went home, stomping the whole way.

Keely had gotten an apartment pretty easily; it had three rooms, a bedroom, bathroom and a kitchen/dining area. 'Well, it's not like I'll ever have company.' She thought to herself with a bit of amusement as she dropped her bag on the bed, the rooms were already furnished, badly to, everything was pink! 'I hope whoever decorated this room dies.'

She now had to go to the local high school and apply there, and as soon as she left the apartment building she was lost! She spotted a fairly nice looking boy, man; he was about as short as her! Anyways, she decided to approach him. "Yo, do you know where the high school is?" The guy turned and looked at her, green hair up in a ponytail, and only one purple eye exposed, the other hid behind his hair. (Guess who) "Ya, you new here or something?" The boy asked and Keely nodded her head and crossed her arms, she didn't need to give out her life story, it would be a sob fest anyways. "Well, it's just down that street, then turn left on the next street, walk straight for awhile and then you're at the doors of Fu-Hsing Public School." (Fu-Hsing is the Chinese God of happiness and he symbolizes fate, destiny and success.) "Thank you." She said and the boy gave her a curt nod which she returned before walking along the way the boy had told her to go.

"Wow..." Keely looked up t the building, for a school in an isolated town, it sure was big, three stories tall. "There must be a lot of kids here." She muttered to herself as she went into the building and tried to find the office so she could register herself as a student. She found it and a very perky looking twenty year old was sitting behind the desk. "Hello, I'd like to register." "Like, okay, what's your, like, name, age and, like, grade." Keely's eyebrow started twitching. "Oh, just like, fill out this form and I'll see what locker and homeroom and stuff you'll like, get." And the rather dim witted secretary handed her a sheet of paper and Keely quickly filled it out, wanting to get away from the preppy chick ASAP. "There." She handed it over to the secretary and waited for her locker number and schedule.

"Here we are, locker number 247 and your homeroom is room 109." The secretary handed her a sheet of paper and a map of the school, Kelly just walked away, happy to gone from the presents of the nerve grating secretary.

"Like, how rude, how can she be in grade ten, she's like, five feet tall."

FASH: There we go; next chapter is the first day of school.
