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. 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnOEzQgdKWv
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYty2Cx3eJN
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. 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1JM0QOfnUz
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzhgauyJ5Sq
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. 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVFk7WyqTyI
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvSRSWpyrYi
After living in this damp apartment for six months, she was finally free. She finally gathered enough money for this. 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡacU0upsemu
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOaMYfQeGGP
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. 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY4hsij1S7o
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4CO1NwbAc9
"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. 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEb2gDuqHs5
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAXcstEYpnA
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... 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ32hSI88Ef1
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7wksLz7e9D
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. 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRsLbjLZWrf
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Om48PcgNb
"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. 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKs8Vyjlw8d
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD6j57FM6Ub
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. 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQYcK3Ac8hA
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjtw1ml3Djx
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? 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn8p1oyyZSO
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjFhV33akao
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. 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6iVJH2nkWF
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL5lpDPvT3A
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. 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDoeoZErNdm
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJCyvc8I0UM
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. 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡILLcdvP6RP
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjFwn7ddWLe
"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. 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQs1d28ui0
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCFRvUt1cKO
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. 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhmQAQfvHS5
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTm4By4O0tx
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.922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPeGAElZofE
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFUSQfrKff3
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. 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP9P0rHBtCe
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFJ5DBgOPiT
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. 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfUtEcqRX7p
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0NglbxjYCS
Ms. Venus nodded. "What's your name, dear?" she asked and started to check on her laptop. 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTub0i70ork
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm9DHnBtRN3
"Gemini," she simply replied. The woman was no longer looking at her, so she could stop smiling for a second or two. 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy40bFwiPce
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ22hSulzkfp
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. 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtZ7RrN6UGl
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQLaLf7KHYd
"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." 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSC3ryN7gcm
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbpfmtzZEDp
"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... 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡodRiiVDUUa
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVelxsEqAx3
"Oh, that contains your class and position," Ms. Venus answered, gesturing at the paper mindlessly. 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVGHcuW4C5j
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdWSnr0deLO
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." 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAtzp7wQY14
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxa07117x7z
That brought a smile to Gemini's face as she walked to her left. 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUytA2Q7pVz
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCtkXuu0Yxr
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? 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7WdEZ3DKVk
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyPadbwZpof
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. 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1LlQOt7dag
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpGD0lPFBsU
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. 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE7CaivCK0f
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAxHCnRVbMN
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...922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx1nPEISRLP
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZ2yd8nKq6
"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. 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6kYE1N3mET
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJIhwVfr64q
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. 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNlJXXh1JR4
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYxOtbR8Pw
Gemini put the letter back in the envelope before looking at the keyroom. Her room was Room 666. 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsRC56mBJFu
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5CMM2y8hz
'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. 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpvGTGhR8PK
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMiWA7fkqz5
"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. 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBKwfh5YvYP
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6J9KywOe03
657, 658, 659, 660, 661, 662, 663, 664, 665...922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHRd5YW70iT
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMGFuhCWiDj
"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. 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVcmg5hKODw
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1RsOZKXARa
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. 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf5Ggb7H4JE
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRgnBZUMmwW
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. 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ50mv6JQxuG
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT1xoZyg6BM

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. 

922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAydU9VuEfr
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. 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9TpkuBP7Y3
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtfpNWAvxoi
"I'm Aquarius," a boy who seemed a bit older than her introduced himself. "We all already know each other here except you." 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0vVXSjryv
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRkjjwKgLF1
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. 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡltmEuoPddQ
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcWf4PeCV7R
"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." 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaYkO0Pqvz9
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZv3Istr0T8
I'm so gonna struggle remembering their names, Gemini noted. 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDDGqMewUiC
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiKrJqwSdvU
"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. 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0XqB47ImrX
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXxiQ6J7CT2
"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." 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRUWFdWbbcF
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzOcm5Nhfco
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. 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Vei3HNxNX
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW5cWCybzr0
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? 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNLdRZQa8Us
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPdr3Y7Ya4e
"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'. 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZfb2L4GleF
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvVAEE1vpo4
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. 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡijoOjoWGKj
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiEPLXFVwGx
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. 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLNVHm8336T
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoAK2GVXm6V
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. 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ7VXVmPTza
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZ6fmfHszD
Libra just chuckled in response. "Well, your brother was chosen to be the vice-captain, Pisces. You must feel proud for him," she commented. 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB1N8L0bWom
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhsXZe8v1Bv
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? 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpHRJvNPrUZ
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHHSaIB1byu
"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. 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ698dJNCmUW
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQt2JdYIqDS
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. 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIdVVx27swa
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb9I0Wei0Ov
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. 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIVkV2lq5X8
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbB4eG2UqqN
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. 922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBWdehm35Z9
922Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOruDrr1a4C

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