Note: PLEASE READ THIS FIRST 'CHAPTER' (the one you get when you just click on the story) OF THE STORY TO ENTER YOUR OCs!!!!!!!!!!

Haha, I am finally starting with the chapters! BWHAHAHAHA :: is not okay at all::

May: Don't mind her, her writer's block is making her crazy. This took her a long time just to come up with.

::sigh:: Ya, I'm having a writer's block for both 'I'll Always Remember' and this, 'Stargazing', I don't know how to face Roxanne.... :Starts banging head on keyboard::

May: Well, let's just get on with the story, you lazy bum!

::Keeps on banging head keyboard:: Fine. Thanks for all the reviews.

Vokteren: It's okay, I can live with it. About the prologues, the first one is just to show Brendan's past and the second one is meeting May, the connection is... getting in trouble in prologue 1 which leads to meeting May in prologue 2.

Marichi: I won't and can't toss away the ability of playing the instruments; it is a main factor of the story. I can play the piano and flute too! The idea of the story with the instruments actually came from me finally mastering the song '1000 No Kotoba' by Koda Kumi A.K.A. '1000 Words' from the FFX-2 game by Jade on piano.

---------------------------------------------------Chapter 1---------------------------------------------------

It was a fine day in September like any other, the beautiful blue sky with puffy white clouds, and the sun brilliantly shinning up high. Then there is the trees, branches swaying with their red, orange, yellow and golden leaves, and the breeze dancing with the surroundings merrily.

It was ten o'clock on a weekday, all kids were at school except for one (A/N well, maybe skippers... or sick kids... or drop outs... or... May: ::Slaps Icy-chan:: WE GET THE POINT! GET BACK TO THE STORY! Me: X.x yes ma'am). The boy had ruby red eyes and a handsome face. His build was quite stocky, six foot one and handsome. He had snowy white hair, which was held up by a red-black headband.

The red-black headband matched his red-black school uniform. (A/N: I'm going to do it the Japanese way... or at least try ::sweat drops::) His uniform consisted of a white dress shirt, dressy black pants, red-white tie and a black vest (also isn't required) (preferably yarn) and a black jacket with red designs (which isn't required either)... ( A/N: get what I mean? ... kinda like Harry Potter if there is the vest and jacket, robe into the jacket though... or maybe Steven... hmm... like half, half)

The student, who had already skipped a week of school and now late, went to the office to sign in and get his schedule. Then, he quickly went to his second period class. He causally went into the class empty handed without knocking the door with his hands in his pockets. As he entered, the whole class stared at him. Some girls almost fainted just by looking at him while others became stoned. Seeing this, the boys became jealous but one girl was still sitting in her desk quietly doing the work the teacher assigned.

"Excuse me, err..." The teacher said.

"First or last?" The boy rudely asked.

"Both" He answered

"Brendan Birch" The white-haired boy replied coolly. Suddenly shuffles of papers were heard. All the girls in the room took out another notebook, their diary or their 'The Guys Handbook' and jot down his name. Again, the one girl who wasn't interested in him continued to do her work silently.

"Well, Mr. Birch, how come you are disturbing my class?" The teacher asked.

"Well, what do you expect me to do?" Brendan snapped back.

"Well, maybe knocking on the door would help."

"Well, Whomever-you-are-sensei, I-"

"I'm your Tactics-sensei," (A/N: I'm just going to use the subject to be the name of the teacher like 'the Tactics teacher' for this incident though it sounds weird....)

"Fine, my TACTICS-SENSEI," Brendan emphasized, "If I knocked on the door, I would have also disturbed the class,"

"True but you still should have acknowledged me,"

"That also will disturb the class,"

"Yes, but it is very impolite of you not to acknowledge me,"

"Fine, Good Morning Tactics-sensei. There, happy?"

"I am not happy with your behavior. Detention after school,"

"Whatever"

"Well, you're holding up the whole class, quickly sit down."

"Where?"

"Hmm...Beside Miss. Maple (A/N: or should I do May-kohai?) will do. There, you will have a better learning environment. Miss. Maple is a very good student." Said the Tactics-sensei.

"Who's 'Miss. Maple?' " He rudely asked again saying the name in a snobby way.

"Right there," the Tactics-sensei said pointing at a girl with sapphire blue eyes and brown hair. Her hair was neatly split into three pieces. Two strands were in the front forming something like pigtails. On the right side, there was a shinny hairpin clipped onto the top of her pigtails. The third piece was held up at the back of her head. It looked like it looked like it was held up by a clip but there wasn't one. Instead there was a pencil stuck in her hair. Somehow, she seemed familiar. (A/N: Brendan forgot because he dates LOTS of girls during the summer. May: ::eyes get teary:: how can my Brendan-kun forget me? T.T Me: ::sweat drops::)

Overall, she seemed quite pretty, smart too but she looked like they very shy type. Like any other student, she wore her school uniform, a white blouse, a red-white tie, a black skirt that went up to her knee and a vest (also not mandatory and the school allow you to wear the jacket or sweater if they want too). She also wore black socks (can be either red, black or white, doesn't matter) and dressy black shoes.

Though the uniform for every student was the same, the one she wore seemed different; it was special. At the end of her tie and pocket of her blouse, vest, and jacket, she had the school emblem sewn on to it, her skirt was actually longer than mid-thigh, she wore knee socks and her shoes weren't heeled. Last few things that made her different was that she didn't wear any make-up at all and that she was working and not staring at him.

The other girls were the exact opposite; they stared at him, not doing their work. Their tie wasn't done properly, and they didn't wear the vest or jacket even though it was getting cold. Plus, they didn't have the school emblem on their tie or blouse and they wore make-up. Their skirt went less than mid-thigh, they wore shorter socks to show their legs and they wore high platform/heeled shoes.

The Tactics-sensei gave Brendan his books. Brendan impolitely took them without saying 'thank you' and sat beside May.

"Class, continue working silently. I need to photocopy something." The Tactics-sensei told the class. The class pretended to turn to their work, but as the Tactics-sensei left, they started chatting about Brendan.

"Hey doll," Brendan called to May. He moved closer to her but she did the opposite, and she ignored him. She moved away from him and continued working.

"Can I borrow a pencil?" Brendan asked. Without answering, she gave him a pencil and continued working.

"Thanks, doll." He said.

Only sounds of her pencil scratching the paper were heard from her.

"Hey, what are we working on?" Brendan asked. The girl wrote something on a piece of paper and gave it to him. It said '500 word essay on tactics of defeating the Gym Leader of Maulville, Wattson's electric pokemon due at the end of the class'.

"500 word essay due at the end of the class?" Brendan repeated out loud. May nodded her head. The pencil in her hair shook.

'What an odd girl, how come she doesn't even look at me or talk? Is she mute? Does she have guy-a-phobia?' He thought

"Huh, screw it, I'm not doing it." Brendan replied and put his feet up on the desk and his hands behind his head.

After a few minutes, the Tactics-sensei came back in with his freshly made photocopies. The class stopped talking and turned to their work. The first remark he made was to Brendan. "Mr. Birch, what are you doing?" He asked.

"A 500 word essay is too much." Brendan replied coolly.

"Mr. Birch, do you see any of your classmates complaining?"

"No,"

"Then why are you complaining? This is one of the top schools here in Hoenn and if you don't appreciate it, why don't you leave?"

"Because they made me, what else? I want to come?"

"That's it, detention for a week!"

"Why do I care." Brendan murmured as the bell rang.

Oh ya, please ignore any mistakes about the school. I am Canadian and I don't really know about how the American or the Japanese schools work, sorry! So please help out if you can.

May: and about the 'Guys Handbook', scarily, some people in Icy-chan's school actually have them... Scary...

May: Well, hope you liked the chapter and review!
