"You'd figure Frost and Cassidy well give us a break. But noooooooooo…" Jubilee was about to continue but was interrupted by Paige.

"Ah come on Jubilee. It ain't that bad. We do have to continue our education, even if we are in a different world."

"She is just mad that we won't be in the same class. So suck it up Lee." Monet told her and walked ahead of her opening the doors of their new school.

Jubilee launched out at Monet, but Jono (who was walking right beside her) was able to grab hold of Jubilee and held on to the struggling girl.

/Let it go gel. She is just teasing you./ Jono said after she had calmed down.

"You think it's too late to have Access send her back?" Jubilee said.

Jono and Paige just laughed.

"Come on you three. The principal's office is right here." Monet said waiting for them looking rather impatient.


'This is just great!' Jubilee said thinking to herself, following her guide to her classroom after the others were shown to theirs.

"Here is your class Ms Lee."

"Great." She mumbled to herself walking into the classroom.

"Alright class, today we have a new student. So please welcome Jubilation Lee."

Everyone looked up from what they were doing and said their hellos, going back to what they were doing.

"Okay Jubilation. I won't embarrass you by making you stand here and tell everyone about yourself, especially since no one is listening. You may go and take a seat while I'll go get you your textbook for this class."

"Thanks." Jubilee said looking gratefully at her teacher who smiled back at her and left the room.

Jubilee looked around for a seat and finally found one at the very back of the class next to a boy with weird black spiky hair wearing black jeans and an orange shirt.

"Hey is this seat taken?" She asked.

"Nope." He said smiling brightly at her.

"Mind if I take it then." She said returning his smile and taking the seat without waiting for a reply.

"Go right ahead. I'm Goten." He said holding out his hand, which she shook.

"Jubilee. Nice to meet ya."

"I thought Mrs. Grave said your name was Jubilation?"

"It is, but Jubilee is short for it." She told him.

"Oh. Well it's a lovely name."

"Thanks, but I think my parents were on drugs when they named me." She said, making Goten laugh.

Goten and Jubilee continued to talk. She told him that she and her friends were new to the city, but they were in separate grades because they were a few years older than her.

For some strange reason, they each felt like they knew each other but didn't say anything about it.

"So what class do you have next? Maybe I can show you to it before I head to mine." Goten offered her.

"I have History with Mr. Thorn." She said.

"Hey that's great, me too. Let me see your schedule." Goten snatched the paper out of her hands before she even had the chance to hand to him.

"Wow. We have just about every class together but two. That's art and English."

"Really? That's great. I guess we're stuck together." She said happy.

"Guess we are." He responded happily ruffling her hair and taking off running.

"Hey no fair!" She said taking off after him, not even noticing that Paige, Monet and a boy with purple hair were standing just a few feet away.

"That Jubilee." Monet said amusement in her voice, but shaking her head.

Paige just nodded in agreement.

"You know her?" He said.

"Yeah, she's our friend we told ya about. Guess she already made a friend." Paige said.

"Yeah, Goten does make friends easily."

"Goten?" Monet questioned.

"The guy who took off running. You'll get to meet him later by the looks of it."

/Get to meet who later? / Jono said walking up to the three.

"Oh hey Jono. This is Trunks. Trunks this is our other friend Jono." Paige said introducing the two.

Just about then they heard a scream down the hall. All four heads turned around to see what it was.

What they saw was Jubilee on Goten's back holding a piece of paper in the air yelling in triumph before they disappeared into their next classroom.

/Guess Jubilee isn't missing us to much. / Jono said happy that his best friend found a friend.

"Let's get to class before we're late."

(After School)

"I wonder where Jubilee's at. We were supposed to meet here after school." Paige said a little worried.

"And she never met us during lunch either." Monet added, also looking around.

"Goten also." Trunks added in.

/Don't worry too much about it. I'm sure Jubilee and your friend Goten will show up soon. / Jono said.

Just then they heard someone yelling.

"I'm going to kill you once I get my hands on you!"

"You'll have to catch me first!"

All four looked around and found the source of the yelling.

They all found it quite amusing. Jubilee was chasing Goten around trying to get back her bag.

Jono stepped right in front of Jubilee before she could even catch the thief.

"AH, Jono get out of my way." Jubilee said, not even sounding exhausted.

/Only if you promise not to hurt him. /

"I wasn't going to hurt him…much."

"Oh hey Trunks." Goten said coming to a stop before he ran right into him.

Jubilee looked past Jono and saw Paige and Monet there. Monet looking a little impatient and Paige a little worried.

She walked past Jono and took her bag from Goten.

"Hey guys. Miss me much?"

"Jubilee, we were supposed to meet here about 10 minutes ago." Monet told her.

"Same here Goten."

"Umm yeah. Sorry about that, but you see…. uhhhh" Goten started to say but couldn't think up off anything.

"Goten and I were attacked by hostile aliens, and if Goten didn't steal my bag and have me chased him down for it, then the whole planet was going to be destroyed." Jubilee added in for him.

Trunks looked at her for the first time noticing the mischievous glint in her very familiar blue eyes thinking he has seen the glint before, but didn't know from where. And for some unknown reason a feeling of protectiveness came over him for her.

"Oh I see. And why did this so call 'aliens' want that for?" Monet asked.

"For their own amusement." Goten responded.

/That's nice and all gel but now that you got your bag back, what are these aliens going to do now? / Jono replied, going along with the story.

Goten and Jubilee looked at each other.

"Don't know. Guess they have to find some other way to keep themselves amused. Right Goten."

"Right."

"Alright, that explains why you didn't meet us when you were suppose to, but that doesn't explain about lunch." Trunks said.

"Well duh. That's about the time the aliens showed up." Jubilee answered.

"And they had to make up their minds in what they wanted us to do."

"So it naturally took up the whole lunch period."

"Naturally." Monet said in a angry tone.

"So when we were looking for you?" Trunks asked curious in what they would say next.

"We were being held in their space ship."

"The entire time?" Monet asked.

"Yes." Goten and Jubilee said at the same time.

/Okay, so why didn't the both of you try to escape and get help? / Jono asked.

"We would have gladly helped." Trunks added.

"Are you kidding, that would have been the easy way out."

"And we didn't want the easy way out."

"And may I ask why not?" Paige asked, finally giving into her curiosity in what the two had to say next.

"We wanted to know what they wanted." Goten replied.

"And figured it could be fun."

"I don't know why we even bothered." Monet said exasperated walking away.

"Ah I agree. I think I'm getting a headache from all this." Paige said, also walking away.

"Oh hi. I'm Jubilee." Jubilee said holding out her hand to Trunks.

"Trunks. Nice to meet you." Trunks said returning her greeting.

"Same here. Oh, Goten, this is Jono, and Jono this is Goten. Jono happens to be my best bud in the entire world.The blonde over there that just walked away is Paige and the other snobbish looking one is Monet." Jubilee said pointing to the two girls that had just walked away.

"Hi. So you and Trunks are in the same grade?" Goten asked.

Trunks and Jono nodded their heads in agreement.

"So mind telling us where you two really were during lunch?" Trunks asked as they started to walked the in the same direction as Paige and Monet.

"I don't mind one bit. How 'bout you Jubilee?" Goten asked.

"I don't mind one bit either." Jubilee said.

Trunks waited for them to say where they were for a few seconds, but getting no response.

"Alright, so where…" Trunks didn't finish to ask his question because Jono interrupted him.

/No point in asking. They're not going to talk. /

Trunks looked over at his best friend Goten and then at Jubilee, noticing that Jono was right.

"Will find out someday. You two do know that, right?" Trunks said.

Jubilee just smiled at him and then said, "Boy being captured by aliens and all that chasing sure does make me hungry. Let's go eat."

With that said, they all went in the same direction that Monet and Paige went.

All the while Trunks couldn't help but feel that Jubilee's energy felt strangely familiar and couldn't place it from where, so he let it be for now.
