THE NEXT DAY

"I'm going now!" Nina said

"Take Care!" Her mom said in reply

"By the way mom, did Ella come down for breakfast, I didn't see her!"

"She had an early breakfast; she said something like going somewhere..."

"I see, Ok bye!"

AT SCHOOL

"Class, please settle down!!!" Mr. Mikami said as he entered the classroom

Everybody kept quiet

"Today class, we have a new student, please make her feel welcome...come in"

Nina just got the shock of her life when Ella entered the room wearing the school uniform. She couldn't help but...

"Aaahhh!!!"

Everybody in the room stared at her

"Sakura, what's wrong?" Mr. Mikami asked

"Nothing, I'm sorry"

"Ok, please introduce yourself"

"I'm Ella Hanasaki, nice to meet you"

"Welcome to our class and take a seat right there...in front of Nina Sakura"

She took her seat.

She looked at Nina who was smacking her head against the desk.

AFTER CLASS

"What are you doing here???" Nina demanded

"Well it hit me like a ton of bricks that you are here in school and I'm not here, so why not come here and be with you so that we can spend more time studying, plus this way you can't be late for another session."

"But school is the ONLY place I'm free!!!"

"Nina....why don't you introduce me to your friend..." Ella said pointing to Ayu, who was standing behind Nina.

"Oh yeah! Ayu this is my tutor Ella, Ella this is my best friend Ayu."

"How are you doing?" Ayu said as she shook Ella's hand

"I'm fine, thank you. Uhm, well not to be rude and all but I know you were the one that kept calling Nina yesterday."

Ayu just looked down.

"But its ok don't worry we'll just keep up with what we missed today."

"About that...well you see Ella, I can't make it, I...I have...clubs today..."

"Really?" Ella said in disbelief

"Yeah! Ayu and I are in the Tennis Club...right..."

"Uhm...Yeah, we are!"

"That sounds like fun, so you don't mind if I come and watch do you?"

"Not at all" (Nina)

"Ok, well I'll see you later" With that Ella left.

"Ayu what do I do???"

"I don't know..."

"Can't I join even for a short while???"

"I guess you could but Nina, remember you're not really good in tennis!"

"I'll just have to try"

AFTER SCHOOL

"I can't wait to see you out there Nina!"

"Ok..."

"Actually...Nina you don't have to pretend anymore...."

"Pretend?"

"You're not really in the Tennis Club are you?"

"I AM!"

"I asked the members of the Tennis club and they said you're not a member. Is that true?"

"Well..."

"Yes...it's true! I'm not a member..."

"I thought so...What do you say let's go back home now and study..."

Nina had a sad expression on her face "Sure...."

"...or we could just stay here or go somewhere else and study with actual magic and not with books after all experience is an important part of being a good magician."

"Nina's face brightened up "Sure!!!"

"Ok, let's go and find somewhere to transform!"

"Yup!"
