Chapter One
Tokyo, Japan
Haw Residence
"Oh no it's already seven-thirty! I am going to be late!" I squeal so loud, my voice was heard all over the house. Making last minute corrections, I grabbed my luggage, along with my purse and made a dash for the car.
"Hurry up dear. You're going to be late," I heard mom remind me from the car, where she waited for my arrival. Her constant babbling always remind me that I slack so much; it's shocking how she can stand it.
"Okay, I'm done now mom. Let's get going!" I said as I got into the car.
Daddy then gunned the engine and sped out the driveway as soon as I got into the car with my seatbelt on.
Oh I'm going to miss the flight to Japan if daddy doesn't drive faster than he usually does. Oh hurry up daddy I'm going to be late. Hurry, hurry, hurry, I thought as we went up the freeway.
Orb's Shuttle Port
Oh where could she be? Mir you better get here on time or else…or else…or else…oh forget that, just you better get here on time! Where is Cagalli anyway? I thought as I look around for my friend that IS supposed to be here by now.
About a few seconds later I saw Cagalli running towards me with a few of her luggages. She was pushing everyone in her path away from her.
"Sorry I'm late. It's just that I forgot to get something so I had to go back…Sorry! Eh? Where's Mir?" asked Cagalli approaching me.
"I don't know. It's not like her to be late though,' I said as I kept an eye out for my friend.
"Whew, I thought I'd be the last one since I'm usually late," Cagalli said as she sat down with me and wait for Miriallia to appear.
"Yeah, you are always late to everything. She better get here soon, we only have about forty minutes until our plane leaves," I said.
"Have you tried calling her yet?" Cagalli asked me.
"No, but I think I should have called a while ago," I rummaged through my bag for my phone. It took about three rings before Miriallia picked up my call.
"Hello. Miriallia speaking," Miriallia's voice answered from the other line.
"Hi, it's me Lacus. Where are you right now?" I snapped slightly.
"I'm almost there Lacus. Just give me about…thirty more minutes," Miriallia yelled from the noise background.
"Okay, but just so you know you only have thirty-five minutes left. Anyway I'll see you later, bye!" I said as I hang up the phone.
"Okay, bye!" Miriallia said then she hung up.
In the car
"Daddy, can you drive a bit faster? I'm going to be late for my flight!" I begged my daddy after I hung u the phone.
"I'm going my fastest. You just have to bear with it until we get there okay," daddy said.
"Okay. But can't you go a bit faster?"
"No darling, your daddy can't go any faster. If we go any faster we'll be the one flying, not the plane," this time, it was my mom's turn to debate.
"Okay," I sat there quietly and said, but since I couldn't take it anymore I got out the car and ran off with my purse and a bag of cloths.
"Miriallia come back here!" I heard my dad yelling from the car, but I didn't bother to turn.
About a few minutes after I got out of the car my legs got tired from all the running. As if heaven could hear my prayers, I heard a motorcycle approaching my direction, stopping next to me.
"Where are you heading Miss?" the driver said.
"The airport, why?" I asked a bit bewildered why a stranger would ask such a question.
"Hop on," he said as he gave me the helmet.
Not knowing what I should do, I decided to go since I would be late. I hopped on and put the helmet on my head spontaneously, and secure it. The next few minutes were spent speeding towards the airport.
It was a thirty minute ride till we finally reached the airport. Those thirty minutes seem like thirty decades instead. I quickly got off the motorcycle, grabbed my luggage, right when the motorcycle came to a full stop. As I was about to go into the airport, my parents called and said good-bye to me as I walked into t he check in center for my flight. I waited in line for about two minutes, until it was my turn to give the assistant my ticket. She finally gave my ticket back with the gate number and seat. When I got my ticket back I ran to the upper level and passed through all the security, stopping to look for my gate.

"We are now boarding passengers on flight 148, from Orb to Tokyo, Japan," the lady announced over the intercom.
Oh Milly, hurry u p you're going to be late. I thought when the flight attendant called the first announcement for boarding passengers.
After about five minutes of searching for Miriallia, we gave up and lines up the first class passengers.
Hurry up Milly! You're going to miss the flight if you don't hurry. I kept praying over and over as each passenger before us handed their tickets to the lady, wishing for a miracle to happen. Just then, someone called us from behind. Miriallia.
"Cagalli, Lacus! Wait for me!" Miriallia yelled from behind.
"You made it Milly," Lacus said relieved as she gave Miriallia a hug.
When it was our turn finally, we handed over our tickets and boarded to plane on our assigned seats in the first class section.
On the Plane
Miriallia, Lacus, and Cagalli sat together in the same role of seats: Cagalli sat in between lacus and Miriallia, who had the window seat and Lacus by the isle seat
Throughout the whole flight, which was about three and a half hours long, Miriallia kept her gaze out the window, while Lacus read over some song lyrics, Cagalli leaving to slumber, the moment she found her seat.
PLANT Shuttle Port
"Dearka, Yzak, Athrun, Nicol…I expect all of you to be on your best behavior, said father as he bid farewell to us.
"We will father," I yelled out as I walked into the shuttle.
When we boarded the shuttle we took seats away from one another. When the shuttle had begun, Athrun approached the captain.
---
"Excuse me Captain, but how long until we reach our destination point?" I asked the captain.
"About four to Five hours, sir," the captain replied.
"Thank you captain," I walked back to my seat.
"How long is it until we land Athrun?" I was greeted by who sat by one of the aisles, listening to an mp3.
"We'll be landing in about four or five hour."
"WHAT! I'm going to be stuck in this shuttle for FOUR TO FIVE STRAIGHT hours with Zala here!" before I could say another word, there went Yzak yelling upon hearing what I said.
"Chill it Yzak. You might have Zala going crazy in abut an hour or so. He might just jump out of the shuttle," Dearka said just to annoy Yzak.
"Shut up Dearka!" Yzak yelled.
"Why should I?" Dearka shot back, sounding more like a demand, rather than a question.
"Coz I said so, Dearka."
"Can you guys just stop? We're going to be under the same roof for a whole year. Can't you just make the best out of it?" Nicol said calmly, trying to make them both relax a bit.
Two hours later, the fighting started again. This time, it was something different. Dearka started singing a song due to his boredom, which annoyed Yzak who started yelling like a madman:
"SHUT UP DEARKA!"
"Why? You're not my mother!"
"I said SHUT UP DEARKA!"
---
How come they can never stop fighting? I wonder what it will be like on Earth. Will they welcome us or will they hate us? I thought as the shuttle entered the Earth's atmosphere. My thoughts were interrupted when I notice Athrun ask me something.
"Nicol, have you ever thought of how it's going to be like when we get to Earth?" Athrun asked as we got closer towards the Earth.
"Yeah, I had been thinking about the things that are going to happen…I mean, how will they react to us when we get there?" I speculated as I too, looked out the window to see the beautiful land come closer from beneath me. The sight was breath taking.
"I really don't know how they will react."
"I guess, all we can do now is hope that all goes well."
After that, both of us set out sight out of the window at the Earth. After two peaceful minutes, Yzak and Dearka started to yell at each other once again.
Will they every stop doing that? I thought as the screaming got louder by the second.
---
Dearka! Your singing is horrible! How and why do girls like him? I thought as I kept on yelling at Dearka for his terrible singing vocals.
"Shut up Dearka!" the more he sang, the more I yelled.
"Why?" Dearka asked in a singing voice, probably to irritate me more. Damn that stupid song of his.
"You have a terrible voice that's why!" I hollered.
Urgh…Why can't he stop singing? He's horrible! How can some people say it's good? I thought as his voice got louder.
"Sir, we are about to make our landing on Earth in a few minutes. Please take your seats and wait for further notice," the captain announces over the speakers.
"How long is it until we land, Captain?" I heard Zala's voice from behind.
"We'll be landing in about ten minutes."
We had to wait five minutes until the captain announced the landing that is taking place in a few more minutes.
"Sir, we have safely passed through the atmosphere…Welcome to Earth!" said the captain as we landed on the shuttle port.

Tokyo Airport
The girls stayed quiet for the whole flight until the captain announced their landing.
"May I have you attention please? This is you captain, and I'd like to inform you that we are about to land in three minutes. Please put on your seatbelts and stay in your seats until further notice. Thank you for your attention," the captain announced as the passengers obey his orders.
"We're finally here. What would you like to do when we get off the plane?" Miriallia asked as she sat thinking about her boyfriend Tolle.
"I don't know yet, but I know one thing, I need to go shopping for some clothes," Lacus said.
"Well, you could do that if you want. I'm just going to stay in bed for the rest of the day that's all," Cagalli said falling back to sleep.
"You're going back to sleep again? You been asleep since we got into the plane," Miriallia said.
"Whatever, I'm just tired. I been like this since yesterday," Cagalli murmured eyes shut.
"Thank you again for your cooperation ladies and gentleman. This is your captain here wishing you a great time here during your stay…Yokoso1 Welcome to Tokyo, Japan!" the captain said as everyone gathered their belongings and started to walk out the plane.
"Hey, Cagalli we're here," Miriallia poking Cagalli 'til she woke up.
"Yeah, I'm up," Cagalli finally rose from her seat to gather her luggages.
"Do you still have other bags?" Lacus asked.
"Yeah, I still have some more. Do you?" Cagalli asked Miriallia who stood behind her counting her bags.
"Yeah I still have some that u have to get. I think there's still two more," Miriallia said as they got out of the plan and out towards the luggage claiming section of the airport in Japan.
"Let's hurry up then, so we can get to the hotel and I can take a break," Cagalli said as she ran out of the plane as soon as they got to the exit, already looking forward to get back into slumber land.
---
"Cagalli, please slow down before you run into something," I plead out of breath, having to run after Cagalli everywhere.
We came to the luggage compartments to get our luggages, and before we know it Cagalli ran into someone again, and she made a big scene in front of everyone.
"Cagalli!" Lacus and I yelled as we ran toward Cagalli.
"You Jerk! Watch where you are going next time! GET OFF OF ME!" Cagalli yelled as she punched the poor guy in the face.
---
"Hurry up Milly, Lacus, and AHHHH!" I yelled as I ran into something, or rather someone. I ran into a guy, with purple eyes.
"Cagalli!" Lacus and Cagalli yelled as they ran towards me.
"You Jerk! Watch where you are going next time! GET OFF OF ME!" I yelled as I threw a punch to the guy in the face.
"Hey what was that for? You were the one who ran into me dude," the guy said.
"Yeah right, I only ran into you because you weren't looking jerk! You should have said SORRY, and FYI I'm a GIRL!" I yelled back.
"Well then, SORRY GRANNY!" he yelled, I guess seeing that I was so slow at picking up my stuff.
"What did you just call me you jerk?" my hand formed into a fist, getting ready to strike again.
"I…said…SORRY…GRANNY!" he yelled slowly as if I couldn't comprehend.
"I'm no GRANNY, you OLD MAN!" I yelled at him.
"Oh wait. I think I needed to say it more SLOWLY for you to hear you OLD MAN!" I mimicked the tone he used on me earlier.
"No of course not GRANNY, I can hear you perfectly Fine!" he yelled once again.
That is it! He is getting on my last good nerves! I thought as I threw another punch to his face to make him suffer. I was about to punch him again but Miriallia and Lacus came and grab me from behind and restrained me from doing anything else to the jerk in front of me.
"Cagalli, that's enough. Didn't you say you were tired? You should get some rest," Miriallia said as she struggle with holding me down.
"Why should I? This jerk ran into me first," I said as I try to get out of Miriallia's and Lacus' firm grip.
"Dude, what are you doing fighting?" a guy in black slacks and a white T-shirt said.
"It's nothing. Let's go now," the guy said and then walked always.
I watch as they walked away from me, still trying to struggle but Miriallia's and Lacus' grip on my arms were too tight so I was not able to break free.
---
What is with that girl? She's weird and has a bit of a temper, but I do have to admit that she is kind of attractive in some ways. I thought as I'm walking off with Nicol, Dearka and Yzak after the little show was over.
"Does anyone know where our apartment or house is?" Nicol asked.
"Ah, yeah, I think I have the address. I remember putting it in my bag somewhere, just let me get it first," I said looking in my bag for the piece of paper I was given with the address on it.
"Can you find it?" Nicole asked as he helped me look for the paper.
"Yeah, I have it. Here it is," I said when I finally pull out a piece of paper with a written number, street name and city on it.
---
"Come on Cagalli, let's go. We have to get going too," I said as Lacus and I pulled Cagalli out of the airport to wait for or limo to get here.
"By the way, Kira said that he is going to meet us in the city in about two weeks or so," lacus said when we finally got Cagalli out of there.
When we finally got our bags we walked out and wait for Cagalli's driver. Then from a distant we heard someone calling Cagalli over.
"Miss Cagalli! Your ride is over here," it was Mr. Kimono, Cagalli's driver who was calling us over.
"Where is the car?" I asked as we walked over to him.
"Over here Miss Miriallia," Mr. Kimono said
"Okay, can you help us with some of our stuff?" Lacus asked him.
"Of course Miss Lacus," Mr. Kimono said.
"Thank you."
"This way," Mr. Kimono showed us the way towards the car.
Why do I have the feeling that we're going to stay for a long time? Well, I guess that I would be ready if I'm going to stay here for a year, since I brought all my stuff with me. I sent in so of my luggage's a few day s before. Why did I bring all this stuff anyway? I thought carrying my luggage's towards the car.
"Milly, aren't you going to get in?" Lacus asked.
I wonder what Tolle is doing? Where could he be right now? Why didn't he come with us? I miss him so much. I thought over and over again that I didn't even hear Lacus calling me from the limo.
"Milly?" lacus called over and over again.
"Miriallia haw!" Cagalli screamed from the window waking me up from my daze.
"Huh? What?"
"Are you going to get in?" Lacus asked again.
"What? Oh yeah, sure."
When I got into the limo, Cagalli is already getting herself comfortable taking one of the fountain drinks while, Lacus sang with Haro. I was left to check my mail. There were about a hundred messages from Tolle.
---
"Where is our ride?" I asked Athrun since he always seems to know everything.
"Honestly, I don't know. You were supposed to call for a ride. You did call, right?" Athrun asked.
Did I call? I don't remember calling before we went on the shuttle. Wait, I did call yesterday.
"I called yesterday. They said it was going to be here by one o'clock pm."
"So, we just have to wait for about thirty minutes until it comes," Athrun said.
"Yeah."
Was our ride supposed to be here by one o'clock pm or two o'clock pm? I remember something about one o'clock, but I just can't put my finger on it. I thought as I kept on looking for a car or something.
"When is our stupid ride going to get here?" Yzak asked me one minute later as we waited.
"Just wait about twenty-nine more minutes then it will be here," I said.
"Shut up Dearka," Yzak crossed his arms.
"Whatever," I muttered under my breath hopping that Yzak didn't hear me.
