Caitlynn skipped joyously off the air plain and went to the luggage area and found her suitcases and then merrily walked off to the arrivals area. Her plane had just landed in the main Manhattan airport and it was her job to find the man holding the sign that would read 'Meadowlark.' Part of Cate felt widely excited, while the other part was trembling with fear and nerves. Everything was so big and different, but nonetheless she trudged on, a bright chipper smile on her face. Her attention was drawn to the large windows, looking at the large buildings out side. Finally she rounded a final corner and saw what she thought to be millions and trillions of people bustling about. To her surprise there where many men and women, standing about holding signs. She squinted slightly to find the right one. It only took her a minute to find the large green and blue sign that read 'Meadowlark Academy.' Cate stood on spot for a few moments taking in the man holding the sign and the two girls that were standing around him, The man was tall with a slender build, he had thinning gray hair and faded blue eyes. His skin looked leathery and worn, but he still had a crooked smile on his face. He was wearing a well-pressed gray suit that matched his hair, and a blue shirt with a green tie. Cate smiled a little wider and then turned her attention to the two young girls. They both looked a like in the face and hair, but were dressed at different ends of the scale. She smiled more and then hoped down the stairs to meet them.

Chloe stood next to an elderly man from Meadowlark, and another young girl who looked as if she could pass as her sister. But being who she was, Chloe didn't bother to introduce herself or ask for anyone's name. She merely stood next to the old man who's nametag read 'Kloppman', with her arms folded and her usual "Get me the hell out of here look on her face." She watched everyone as they entered the arrivals section of the airport; most of them were old men and women. But there was the occasional blonde haired, blue eyed, incredibly hot boy who walked past and winked at her. As well as the stuck up looking, "I'm better then everyone," pretty girls, with the perfect completion who casually cast death glares at her. Chloe was glad to return the favor. She watched as an overly cheerful young girl with curly brown hair walked up to Kloppman and the other girl she was introducing herself to them and then moved to were Chloe was.

"Hello I'm Caitlynn Livine, but people usually just call me Cate." The young brunette spoke cheerfully extending a hand and a smile.

Chloe looked at her an eyebrow raised. Usually she wasn't this grumpy, but it hadn't been her week.

" Hi, Chloe. Your in my personal space so I'm just gonna move over here." She replied using a stuck up tone and then moved towards the wall. Cate looked utterly shocked for a moment or two then just shook it off and moved back towards the other girl.

Scarlett Leigh stood in her spot watching as the fiery redhead, Chloe, walked over to the wall and leaned against it. By the time she had turned her freckled face back to the face Kloppman, the Cate was right in front of her. Scarlett stumbled back slightly, an uneasy smile on her face.

"Hi…."She spoke timidly and softly.

"HI, how are you? Are you excited about this experience?" Cate asked bouncing slightly.

Scarlett wasn't a people person, she usually kept to herself, and today wasn't an exception. Cate was a little much for her bust she put on the usual sweet smile and answered her softly, moving a piece of amber hair from her face.

"I.. I'm good thanks, and yes I'm excited, although I'm not that great with guys." She gave a weak smile and a little laugh.

Cate burst out laughing loudly as well. "Well then there's something we have in common." She managed threw fits of laughter.

Meanwhile the beautiful young blonde Californian had just followed a long line of businessmen threw the airplane terminal. Her nose was buried deep in a book; she did glance up every few minutes to make a turn or to stand in a customs line. After quite a few minutes winding about the airport, she finally stood in the middle of the arrivals terminal. For a few brief moments she put her book down, stood on her toes and found the Meadowlark sign. She smiled and skipped over towards the small crown, setting her book in her bag.

"Hello!" She greeted happily smiling and shaking hands with the three people there.

Cate and Scarlette smiled back and shook hands with her gratefully. The three of them told each other where they were from, and what they planed to achieve while at the Academy. Lauren got along perfectly with the two of them. After a few moments a girl with shining read hair caught her eye. Being a people person she casually walked over to her.

"Are you going to Meadowlark as well?" She asked smiling brightly.

Chloe looked over at her lazily for a moment and then smirked slightly.

"Ya parents pulled in a favor from Dean Maxwell to get me in, It's suppose to turn me from my 'whorish' ways." She smirked at the utterly shocked look on Lauren's face. "I'm Chloe by the way, Chloe Dowell."

Rose smiled and extended her hand. "Lauren Hamilton." She smiled knowing as she shook her hand that she had made a great new friend

In the middle of the airport arrivals terminal stood four smiling, good looking young girls all chatting away. At the far end of the terminal stood the final girl to join Meadowlark girls, a tall well-built security officer accompanied her, and Brandie was making sure he caught all of her glares.

"Come on kid, looks like your group is this way." He told her quickly and then dragged her towards the group of girls.

Brandie turned her look from the officer to the group of girls and rolled her eyes. " They look like the girls I use to beat up back home." She thought to herself, a small smile creeping across her face.

"Well go introduce your self." The officer told her, shoving her into he crowd.

All at once the chatter stopped and everyone was staring at her. Brandie glared at all of there smiling faces.

"Hello I'm…" Cate started, but a quick glare and a snarl quickly shut her up. Scarlett didn't even try to talk to her, she merely his behind Cate and cautiously watched Brandie.

"There's no need to be like that." Lauren stated glaring just slightly.

Brandie returned it. "Wanna make something of it doll?" She snapped.

Lauren was about to say something but the officer cut her short.

"I wouldn't little Miss. This one here's beat up at least six girls twice your size."

Lauren, Scarlett and Cate all stared at Brandie utterly shocked. Chloe on the other hand looked widely excited and interested.

"You actually beat them up? Did you go to jail? Did they die?" She asked excitedly.

The girls turned their shocked glances from Brandie to Chloe and then back again, as if waiting for her to punch Chloe out. But she merely smiled.

"Nah.. Didn't go to jail, close to it though. And all the stupid chicks survived but now without a sever beating." Brandie chuckled and Chloe laughed.

"I'm Chloe, this here is Lauren, Scarlett and Cate." She said smiling and introducing them one at a time.

Brandie smirked." Please to meet you all. Brandies the name."

After a few tense minutes everyone was chatting away once again. Which was interrupted when Kloppman told them it was time to load the bus and head to Meadowlark Academy. The girls smiled at one another and then followed the old man towards the bus, talking widely of how they hoped all the guys would be cute.

Little did they know that in the commons room of Meadowlark, six or seven young boys where having the same talk about the girls, and what they planed to do to them.

DUN DUN DUNNNN.. haha so I hope you all like it. Now that they have met, and are all friends.. at least for now. We have to introduce the lovely young men they will meet. Hope you stick with my threw it all. You all ROCK! Love to everyone of yous! Xoxox
