And this is Ch2!! Thanks for reviewing Nicole!! :D Sorry if I don't describe what everyone looks like this chap, I promise to try and do that in the next chapter.


"No way!" Sarah cried dropping her hands. She had been fixing her bun (which came out like clock-work everyday) ,even though it was doubled over, her hair still reached the top of her jeans and the bottom of her plain red shirt.

"Yes way." Claire said just as happily as she had that morning as she pulled out the letter. It was toward the end of lunch and she had just told everyone about the trip. Sarah reached over and tookt eh offered peice of paper.

"Let me see!" Erin objected as she took hold of one side of the paper to try and read the silver handwriting.

"This is what you were so happy about this morning!" Clara accused her 'twin'.

"I promised I wouldn't tell." Kilana replied as she hung her head in pretend shame.

"Oh my god it is real!" Erin cried as she finished skimming the letter. Sarah let go of her side as she bounced up and down in her seat.

"This isn't a joke right?" Kanji asked.

"Nope!" Claire pulled out the forms and laid them in the middle of the table. "$50 to go. Your parents sign these, you come to school on Friday, and then I think they bus us to the airport or something." Yuki picked up a form slowly and look at it.

"If my parents let me go Duckie will be so jealous."

"I know!" Erin said, grabbing her own form.

"Erin, there is one thing." Claire said slowly.

"What?"

"On the second page it says no CD players."

"What?!" Erin flipped to the last page. "Where?"

"There!" Sarah said pointing out he highlighted part.

"Oh." Erin read it over quickly. "I don't believe this! My CD player was made over there!"

"Yeah but that's what it says so..." Claire shrugged.

"They probably have a very good reason." Kilana stated. "Besides with all the stuff to do over there you might not have time to listen to it anyway."

"And for 50 bucks I'm going even with a technology ban!" Kanji said claiming a form for herself.

"I'm sure I'll be able to go, but I'll have to ask." Clara said taking a set of papers.

"I'm definitely going! They have pocky there." Sarah chimed in grabbing a form of her own.

"Why are there still some left?" Yuki asked looking at the last two forms on the table.

"They said I could bring up to ten people with me." Claire explained. "There's you seven and Becky makes eight, so that leaves two extra forms." She picked up the extra forms and put them away in her book bag.

"Are Kelsey and Melissa coming?" Kilana asked.

"NO!" Claire said defiantly. (A/N-What I am about to say would never really happen. If there were extra forms, my sisters would be coming too --) "They have to stay home. Mom and dad think it should just be me and my friends with no annoying sisters tagging along everywhere and annoying us to death."

"Amen to that." Erin said offering a raised hand.

"They didn't quite say it like that, but that's what they meant." Claire said as she returned the high five. Just then the bell rand signaling the start of study hall.

"What about adults?" Yuki asked as everyone got their stuff together. "Are your mom and dad coming too?"

"They will if it turns out they have to, but I think we'll be with some assigned group leader person so they won't have to" Claire explained as she picked up her bag and headed toward Mr. Kelly's room.


Ha! Ch2! In Ch3 we'll be at school and ready to leave for Japan! Everyone is coming! No one forgot their forms and you all have your money, bags of clothes and such, and signed forms! We're ready! I will try and do a description thing for everyone I haven't done yet and a longer one for those people like Abby, Nicole, Sarah, and Becky who I sorta got, but not really.

If of you guys see me doing something besides writing in study hall for the next few weeks, tell me to get out my notebook! I want to have 5 chapters up as soon as possible!

Now, review please!
