"Come on, Aqua! We're gonna miss it!" Pisces pleaded her brother to run faster. She had a hard time breathing, having just run from home.
618Please respect copyright.PENANABjhRfsoi2p
Her elder brother, Aquarius, was way behind her. He wasn't so interested in going, so he wasn't making an effort to go any faster.
618Please respect copyright.PENANAGkZe3GwKEN
When Pisces finally arrived to the edge of Quatran, she smiled and closed her eyes in bliss. She spreaded her hands, as if she was really flying.
618Please respect copyright.PENANAGHKHVYY0GS
It was the first time Aqua decided to see the Zodiacs with her.
Sagittarius grinned, seeing them coming. "One day, I'll be able to fly that free. I'll make sure of it," she stated, talking more to herself.
618Please respect copyright.PENANAiV42SuwYwJ
At her announcement, Libra laughed. "Yeah, right. You don't even know your way around and you can't read a map. You'll fall down to the sea mid-fly."
618Please respect copyright.PENANAsuhwz6dHAf
Sagittarius rolled her eyes and hmph'ed, crossing her arms. "I just to feel the feeling of literal freedom, like they are feeling."
618Please respect copyright.PENANAdVyavmVEhZ
"I want to feel it, too," the shy Virgo suddenly said. His voice was small. It seemed as if his mind was elsewhere as he watched the Zodiacs flying. His eyes showed stars of amazement.

"They're so elegant," Cancer commented. "I've decided. I want to be just like them when I grow up!"
618Please respect copyright.PENANAL3goaBS8gY
"Yeah, right," Scorpio said. "I will be a Zodiac and you will never be a better Zodiac than me." He was quite smug about it, like he knew for a fact that he was going to be the best Zodiac that ever existed.
618Please respect copyright.PENANAzZttOEP9o6
Capricorn chuckled. "Alright, sure, whatever you say, Scorpio."
618Please respect copyright.PENANAWJYzcMT152
After that, they were enveloped in silence, until they realized someone was snoring...
618Please respect copyright.PENANAsoAMgTuRGb
"Taurus? You're asleep?!" Cancer gasped in realization. In her mind, no one would ever want to miss the show.
618Please respect copyright.PENANAeFP3P2H7xu
Taurus jolted awake as if he just got smacked. "Wha- what did I miss?!" he looked around confusedly and frowned when he saw no interesting detail.
618Please respect copyright.PENANAldwKd8vCkA
"You missed the show," Libra answered with a roll of her eyes. "They just passed by right above us, and you missed them."
618Please respect copyright.PENANAhA9d6INbHG
"Why are you so sleepy anyways?" Sagittarius asked, crossing her arms. She was a bit sad that the show--that wasn't exactly a show--was done, but at least they'll have another one in a month.
618Please respect copyright.PENANA2yzxwjDugo
"I-" Taurus yawned and stretched. "Sorry. Antares-" He yawned again. "Anta wouldn't let me sleep last night. He somehow gained-" And once again, he yawned. "Gained extra energy. I don't know why or how."
618Please respect copyright.PENANAgv54Fx8TZH
Scorpio chuckled. "That little Star of yours. You should train it like mine," he said arrogantly. After that, they started arguing about whose pet was better.
618Please respect copyright.PENANALs8O3xGhk5
"At least mine is free! Unlike yours which you keep in a cage," Taurus protested with crossed arms. His sleepy-ness seemed to have flew away to Mars.
618Please respect copyright.PENANAP4tSyrWzRk
Scorpio rolled his eyes and checked his nails like those gossip girls in movies. "Uh-uh. And that's totally why your Star pees on your bed and poops on your chair."
618Please respect copyright.PENANAxmgVuzox33
This was a usual encounter between the two. They always bickered like an old married couple and their friends usually just watched with amused grins. They really had the cleanest mouth(note the sarcasm) out of all of them.
618Please respect copyright.PENANA4sD85Uibvc
"Everyone!" Virgo suddenly called. He was shouting, but it sounded like usual talking to the others, because Virgo was usually so quite.
618Please respect copyright.PENANADRqqQZrGlf
Everyone looked at him with raised eyebrows and he felt quite nervous to say it, but he decided to do it anyways. "Let's all promise to be Zodiacs together, no matter what happens, yeah?" Virgo said with a smile and held her hand out.
618Please respect copyright.PENANAdLpw6kXqju
The others were dumbfounded. They didn't realize Virgo had so much passion to be a Zodiac, so they froze for a second before Libra said, "Of course. Let's all be Zodiacs and stay friends forever!" She put her hand on Virgo's.
618Please respect copyright.PENANAeCMSjolTLo
The others smiled and nodded at each other before putting their hands above the other.
618Please respect copyright.PENANANn8egGllRh
"Zodiacs!" they cheered.
"They're awesome, aren't they?" Leo asked his best friend, Aries, as they watched the Zodiacs approaching. "Do you think if I become one of them, I'll be more popular and liked by people?"
618Please respect copyright.PENANAkLg7E05WFW
Aries chuckled and shook his head at his friend's stupidity. All he ever cared about was popularity, but Aries never understood why. "You're already popular, Leo. Why'd you want to be more popular anyways?"
618Please respect copyright.PENANAsSap5d0fPh
Leo shrugged. "I just do. Anyways, what do you say if we both become Zodiacs and strive for popularity together?"
618Please respect copyright.PENANAViCEMp4WWC
Aries raised an eyebrow. "Leo, being a Zodiac isn't all about popularity. We have to fight and that might ruin your beautiful face, as you said. Are you really sure?"
618Please respect copyright.PENANAL6O6Xu0uUJ
Leo looked above. The Zodiacs were still shining brightly. "The marks and scratches on my face wouldn't compare with how brightly I will be shining if I were them," he stated and held his hand up, almost as if he was trying to touch the sky.
618Please respect copyright.PENANADNov0A8TfI
Leo let down his hand when he realized he couldn't touch the sky just yet. "I don't mind a few scratches here and there if that meant shining as bright as them. So, what do you say?"
618Please respect copyright.PENANA3DdljOurwB
Aries laughed. "Alright, sure, but I'm more into the fighting."
"Finally." Gemini fell down to the floor with a sigh. She was so tired. Her bags were scattered all around the room and the door was closed. She finally arrived into her new apartment, away from home.
618Please respect copyright.PENANATEqGHekefh
Away from Getroix, she thought but quickly shook the thought away. I will be fine. I have to be. I need to make my dreams come true.
618Please respect copyright.PENANAo4d0TyfTe3
With the only strength she had left, she crawled over to the window and looked out. Good thing the window was big and she could see through it even though she was sitting on the floor.
618Please respect copyright.PENANAEhL7kYWCdI
Outside was what humans would call fireworks, but really, it was the Zodiacs returning. Honestly, all everyone ever thought was about how glorious they were... How awesome, amazing and all that.
618Please respect copyright.PENANAlJ2jgOS6LL
However, when Gemini saw them, all she ever thought was about the struggle they had. They had to fight and protect their world from everything and anything, even if that meant dying and killing.
618Please respect copyright.PENANACZmOTHzQRV
Gemini couldn't imagine killing someone, much less dying, but that was the thing. She needed to do this. She needed to be a Zodiac.
618Please respect copyright.PENANAgXKM1qI3jP
She promised.
618Please respect copyright.PENANA46gS3lLxH6
"Such a stupid promise," she muttered to herself and laid her head on the wall. "Why would I do that..."
618Please respect copyright.PENANAVeahpMLwWG
Gemini sighed before falling asleep sitting down on the floor.
