Gemini immediately jumped from her bed when her glass-shattering alarm started to ring. Panicking, she quickly tried to find a way to shut it off. It would be easier if she didn't just wake up because her mind was still in the clouds, but that was the purpose of alarms. 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8MOWbikvyE
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvEbfu3Zk7C
She stretched, wondering whether she should take another five minutes before shaking her head like a dog to wake herself up some more. "I can't be late on my first day," was the reason she finally stood up and walked to shower. 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAEibQPqnGl
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvxCmHaYU1B
When she finally finished drying her purple hair and using her clothes, Gemini grabbed her bag that she had filled with books yesterday. She also brought the suitcase she got from her mum. 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnKrxxK5eoQ
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTXGek3nJmK
After living in this damp apartment for six months, she was finally free. She finally gathered enough money for this. 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8kstn7fRZG
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCxu1JqB948
She walked the whole way down--the apartment didn't have a lift so she had to walk from the tenth floor to the first one. It was a good exercise, so she didn't mind that much. 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg4KNjSunF4
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZ6z6wZaxv
"Finally free from the cage?" someone asked softly. Gemini turned around and saw the shorter girl. She had always considered the girl was her neighbour, but she never cared to know her name. 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbj2YAyShHB
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJxvaoU8wid
Gemini put on a smile, though. "Yup! I'm finally going to Zodiacs," she said like it was her lifelong dream. In a way, it was, but still... 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡABK7VL6NHX
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlGyCtXC99t
The pink-haired girl's eyes widened before clapping excitedly. "That's so cool! You're totally my new idol. I wish you luck!" she said, just as excitedly. 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDDHNCjJhbk
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0T3REjxAjv
"Thank you," Gemini said and her smile widened. She thought for a moment that her smile didn't seem fake. Am I finally turning normal? However, she just shook her head as if it was the weirdest idea ever and gave the girl a wave before walking away. 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSNZXeJwS8v
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWFtcxqCJYm
Silently, the air sign walked towards her new school. Even though being a Zodiac wasn't what she really wanted, she then got reminded about how she hadn't even got a direction in life. 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9nV92klqyH
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLi1ekI5jDT
Gemini never got interested in anything, so when her parents asked her what she wanted to be, she flat out said that she wanted to be a Zodiac. She didn't exactly regret it, because now, at least she had a point in life. But, when she thought about it carefully, how was she going to survive doing something she didn't really love? 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmS6fphPtON
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpoIGDx5byH
And the fact that she could die while doing it just put more pressure on her. However, she couldn't back out because she promised her parents. And promises were an important thing back in her village. 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvKdutv6V2R
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrccjCg30fF
Getroix's name meant 'promise' or a promising land. Anyone could live there without anything bothering them--not a flood, not a famine, not an earthquake, nothing. However, as the catch, anyone who promised something to someone whilst they were standing on Getroix, had to fulfill it by the end of their life or else they would have to experience the worst thing ever throughout their death. 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxpBUkrEh9Q
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpaMcGg4eZc
Finally, the 5'1 feet tall girl arrived to her new school. She walked up the stairs silently, absorbing the beauty around her in her rare black eyes--black eyes exist in their world, real black eyes. 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWiywGNDMKq
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡslFgaTfaNR
"Twenty," she muttered under her breath. It was the amount of stairs she just stepped upon. Gemini had a habit of counting each stair as she went by. Somehow, she thought it made it seem quicker and less tiring. 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxugmRP8c4g
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡElmoWMilVs
Either way, her right hand was tired. It had to lift the heavy suitcase as she walked up those stairs. Gemini shook her right hand and looked at it--it was red. So, she simply used her other hand to bring the suitcase. Easy. 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJfV7sHa1ki
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtwvCujWNmj
She decided to go to the frontdesk first and was greeted by an old lady which had short hair. "Good morning," the old lady greeted her.836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKQEpe4gq2n
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxfGEDBvHKy
Gemini took a peak at her name tag. Ms. Venus, it said. "Good morning, Ms. Venus. I'm a new student and I'm wondering where I can get my room key and everything else," she greeted back with that award-winning smile. 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgy0PzHhTtb
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEnYu2zz270
She learned long ago that a smile always made everything better for other people. And if it was better for the others, then it was okay for her too, even if that meant she had to put on a thousand fake smiles. 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡagLa5y8C0U
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCnz2k1ibvs
Ms. Venus nodded. "What's your name, dear?" she asked and started to check on her laptop. 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6U0qAATkE5
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4caupPOu0w
"Gemini," she simply replied. The woman was no longer looking at her, so she could stop smiling for a second or two. 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAM2lMLiQC3
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZjnPIQAcaP
The Venus lady handed her a room key and an envelope. She had to stand up since Gemini was unfortunately too short to reach her. Her excuse was that the table was so tall. 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMNXQFnwsfO
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx2m8CF5UqE
"Your room number is written on the key and the dorms are that way," she said, pointing to Gemini's left. She was wearing a pair of white handkerchiefs and she kind of reminded Gemini of a flight attendant. "Just go up the lift. It's on the twelfth floor." 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLiggEHiJGP
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1MqtqJycml
"What's the paper for?" she asked, waving the mint blue envelope. Who knew I'd be invited to a wedding on her first day... 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhrEtfUR0ZD
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx7OguDCEVg
"Oh, that contains your class and position," Ms. Venus answered, gesturing at the paper mindlessly. 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1erXWkSy3y
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAvIVd5vXFw
She nodded gratefully and said her 'thank you' before walking away. She swore she heard the frontdesk lady say something like, "If only people these days are that kind, world would be a better place." 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBewGbhHkXP
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLtB8d6LL3i
That brought a smile to Gemini's face as she walked to her left. 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIXwGDb8s5o
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡapEP0ub3V7
Some people might think her actions were really pathetic and she was a two-faced person, but that wasn't what she was striving for. She just wanted to smile for other people and make them happy, even though she was not, because other people's happiness made her happy. That wasn't such a horrible action, was it? 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7uo78afaq3
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡurCvt4LdX7
However, that did cause a few troubles. You see, Gemini always had a hard time telling people about her emotions and everything. Even she herself didn't know about the reason behind her emotions most of the time. So, she just stuck to smiling and making other people happy because that was what she excel in. 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvwkVOwZbhe
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLR5WaALM1T
The short girl clicked the 'up' button, waiting only a few moments before it opened. A few people came out of the lift before she got in the small box. She clicked '12' and decided to read the envelope containing her schedule. 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7CYqPD98Pd
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDO5KNWAsE
First, she read about all the welcome stuff--you know, about how the school wished she will enjoy her school year and all that. After that, the letter stated that Gemini's classroom was 9D and she was the...836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡixvN83m4zq
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjUqKxf5f2z
"Vice-captain?" she read aloud, not realizing the lift had opened. The doors were closing when she looked up and she quickly pushed the 'open' button before skipping out of the box. 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcDHutzBUxz
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkYJyNE0ZDU
As she walked towards her room, her eyes were on the letter. There was no way that she was the vice-captain. "In and out, Gem. In and out," she mumbled when she remembered that she needed oxygen. 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUq59ynbQGM
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJj3U2IgAPb
Gemini put the letter back in the envelope before looking at the keyroom. Her room was Room 666. 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡASYfgmWsll
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqQOnVex3In
'650-700' was written on an arrow and pointed to her right. She was grateful for the directions. You see, Gemini always had trouble remembering directions--she couldn't even remember which way to get out of the mall toilet and once nearly entered the male's toilet. 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIebZ9gJc0K
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsLyaqj182Y
"Class is gonna start in half an hour," Gemini noted after checking her watch. That was enough time for her to put her bags in and everything else. She might even be able to make tea before going to class. 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ383PS6jSNU
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8vjwAYTSF9
657, 658, 659, 660, 661, 662, 663, 664, 665...836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmGkZqrBkS3
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡseWMbpbY4P
"Here it is," she cheered quietly and opened the door with her room key. Once she heard a click, Gemini opened the door and took the key out before saving it safely in her pocket. 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkkoNcmFnZt
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhtcJGhg32m
She entered her new room. It was very clean and simple. There was a desk and a chair, a wardrobe, a bed, a nightstand equipped with a lamp, two windows and another room that she assumed was the bedroom. 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLaewT7JMp9
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8MwBtQGczj
She took off her shoes and put them neatly near the nightstand before laying down her suitcase next to the bed. Gemini knew that after this first class, she would have missions that would take traveling, so she doubted she needed to settle in at all. 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrLUrHWNbPX
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZEhnbjKCm

Gemini sat on her bed and laid her head on the headboard lazily. She smiled softly and looked out of the window. "I bet today will be an amazing day," she said to herself. "I'll just have to wait and see."

"You must be our other vice-captain!" a green-haired girl cheered from her seat when Gemini entered the room. The class was filled with twelve tables and chairs for the students, and one of each of those for the teacher. 

836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQX4PLfFgh
Someone from behind clapped. "Hi, there! I'm Aries, the captain," he stated as he approached her and held out his hand. Gemini shook his hand and smiled. The captain didn't seem too bad. 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsbsYh39MAa
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIQ2fFpgJgD
"I'm Aquarius," a boy who seemed a bit older than her introduced himself. "We all already know each other here except you." 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTQ15EB9sCa
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLfdx6z5ldq
Gemini raised an eyebrow. "Where'd you know each other from?" she asked. Did they have a secret meeting without me? was the first thought that came to her mind. What if's came afterwards. 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7qFtZnbgnM
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlkpU3APCHp
"We were childhood friends and went to the same elementary school. What about you, Gemini?" another person asked. "We know nothing about you, so please introduce yourself. I'm interested." 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4k2WyXrqe4
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡplqjnJI9Lp
I'm so gonna struggle remembering their names, Gemini noted. 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGEaq2S5ZyI
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡryaFHsD8uy
"I," she started. "Well, I'm Gemini. I've lived for around two-hundred-and-fifteen moons. And I... Well, I guess that's all." She shrugged. 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8CXS6dWwwy
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXnwXuMznJA
"Aww, that's all?" the same person who asked her to introduce herself asked again. "Hm, what about your personality? How'd you describe yourself? I hope you aren't as quick-tempered as Aries. That'd be trouble." 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxPuJXX9912
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRBHB7l8RWB
Aries rolled his eyes. "Right. Well, I hope you aren't as emotional as Cancer who seems to be in her period 24/7," he shot back. Gemini noted that the other girl's name was Cancer. 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyLyYCTIT1c
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQb5Pqkhwh
They soon started bickering and Gemini was glad. She didn't want to have to describe her personality. Yeah, right, no thanks. The only thing she knew was what other people always said about her, which was this word 'kind', but if she said that to Cancer, wouldn't she be considered as arrogant for praising herself like that? 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPzdxyKjRqU
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr9MAfZUKMB
"I can't wait until our first mission," someone from another group in the class stated. She wore a name-tag that showed the name 'Libra'. 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAUIf5s1Nmy
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMEgltyjCJW
This group seemed calmer than the one that greeted her. There were four people--two boys and two girls, and one of them oddly looked like Aquarius. 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwYxFoO5nXV
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMqxXGeAjRu
A guy nodded in response. "Me, too. I'll finally experience what it is like to be a real Zodiac," he said, agreeing to 'Libra'. Stars almost-literally appeared in his eyes when he talked about being a real Zodiac. His voice was very quiet that Gemini hardly heard what he was saying. 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsPWltQB63F
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8nrr6GEiO5
The Aquarius-female-clone finally got in the conversation. "Uh-uh. I can't believe you got picked to be the third-in-command, Libra! You're so amazing!" she praised Libra with a grin. 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡspybqsR4Ri
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK3YQZxU3gd
Libra just chuckled in response. "Well, your brother was chosen to be the vice-captain, Pisces. You must feel proud for him," she commented. 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgRdjMP9b6v
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY0VswaxRC6
The other girl's eyes got somewhat sad, but she hid it. That action caused Gemini's eyes to widen in surprise and wonder. Is this girl just like me, hiding my own self to make other people happy so much that I forgot who I was? 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpMQonVpEBG
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPKsyhShuNI
"Yeah, he's amazing too," Pisces said half-heartedly, but no one else could see it besides Gemini, because a smile could hide so many things to the people who weren't used to hiding. 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl504Q9WGzO
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVeBCj4dEMi
There was another group of people in the class, but Gemini didn't have time to see observe them. Their teacher, Ms. Lenate, had entered, so everyone scrambled to their seats, including Gemini. 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsQqambSykL
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqjyzI7ZVLD
She walked over to her desk, head held high like a model. Once she reached it, she let her books fall to the desk loudly. 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqEFBx7bqBy
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ99hKHSkZ8D
Ms. Lenate looked around the room as if she was searching for something before nodding at Aries. "Good morning, students. You've finally arrived at Zodiacs and I hope you will be happy here," she greeted. 836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXtPUwIl09N
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRnSOIYg5UQ

Yay, time to start fulfilling my so-called dream! Gemini thought with fake excitement, but as usual, kept her sweet smile on her face.
