Chapter 1: Introduction to Death, Room 101

Usagi woke up at 7:00 and gulped down her breakfast quickly as she ran to school, late as usual. When she reached homeroom, Usagi sat in her usual seat and began to stare off into space. Ami waved her hand in front of Usagi's face, "Still asleep, Usagi-chan?", She asked happily. Usagi looked up at her and forced a smile, "yeah, I guess I'm just still tired. I did have to run home at midnight, remember?!" Ami nodded and then sat in her seat as the teacher walked into the room. Her face was flustered with annoyance as she spoke to the class, "Alright everyone, we have 5 new students joining us today. All from different schools but still joining this one small class, "She sighed, "Ok, come in boys and introduce yourselves as well." The first boy that walked in had brown hair tied in a braid that trailed down his back, his azure blue eyes scanned the room with a dopey grin to match them, "The name's Duo Maxwell. It's a pleasure." He nodded to the teacher and she pointed to an empty seat in the back, to the left of Ami. Two more boys walked in. The second had short blonde hair and lighter blue eyes that shined with an innocence and equal passion for life, "I'm Quatre Rababera Winner and I hope to get to know everyone here." He followed the teachers gaze to the back of the room and sat in the empty desk to the right of Ami. The other boy had short brown hair that covered one of his grey eyes that showed nothing, " My Name is Trowa Barton.", and with that he sat in front of Quatre in the second to last row. The last two boys entered the room. The fourth of the group had a grim expression on his face and had black hair tied in a tight ponytail and matching charcoal eyes, " The name is Chang Wufei", he looked at the teacher and she pointed for him to sit in the third row's fourth seat. He sat there without question. The last boy looked around the room with guarded blue eyes and his auburn hair that trailed over his face and casually into his eyes, he stopped and eyed Usagi, " I'm Heero Yuy. It's nice to be here.", His voice held a monotone nothingness. The teacher sat him next to Usagi, in the second seat of the last row. Usagi looked over at him, her eyes wide. Heero was watching her, he narrowed his eyes and then refocused his attention to the front of the room.
Ami watched Usagi carefully, "I wonder what could possibly be upsetting her?......Maybe she found something out about the new enemy", she thought. Her face puckered as she thought more on the subject, an abrupt tap on the shoulder shook her from her thoughts. She looked to her right, Quatre had a worried look on his face, "Are you alright, Miss? You seemed very involved in your thoughts, I was a bit worried." Ami smiled, "I'm fine, thank you for your concern. Oh and by the way my name is Ami Mizuno." He smiled in response, "Your very welcome, You can call me Quatre.", he sat back in his chair. Ami turned back to the front of the room, smiling brightly, though she still was worried about Usagi.
At lunch time, Usagi and Ami walked through the schools open court. Minako and Mako ran up to them, each with a grin from ear to ear. Feeling better, Usagi laughed, "Who is it this time?" Ami chuckled in agreement, "I bet it's one of those new boys isn't it?" Minako and Mako looked at each other and nodded, "Aren't they sooo cute, though?", Minako winked, " and as they say 'there are many fish in the sea, you just have to eat them all.' At least I think that's the way it goes." All four of them laughed and then began walking towards their usual eating spot.
Heero scoffed as he watched them from his place against a large tree. Duo sat next to him, slapping his back hard, "Hey Heero 'ol boy. Scoping out the hot chickies, eh?!" He started to laugh but Heero's icy glare stopped him in his tracks. Trowa and Quatre sat near them, "Heero, why do you keep looking at that Usagi girl. Does she know something?", Trowa spoke in his monotone voice. Heero smirked wryly, "She saw me that night I went out. I don't want her connecting me to what happened at the power plant. I mean she seems like an airhead but it wouldn't be too hard if she were to put two and two together, get it?" Quatre nodded, Trowa looked to the ground, Duo stood up and began walking towards the group of girls. Quatre began to stop him but Trowa held out his hand, "Let him, Whatever you would have said to him wouldn't have changed his mind." Quatre settled back into his seat and smiled, "Your right, I'll let him do what he wants."
Usagi smiled brightly, "I'm gonna go see Mamo-chan after school. I can't wait.", She giggled. Ami smiled, "Just don't get too distracted and forget about the meeting today, we have to talk about the weird energies I've been feeling and the visions Rei had. And some well needed training as well, Luna won't want us to be the chunky senshi of justice", She laughed. Minako looked down, "I wish I had a boyfriend." Duo tugged on a small strand of Minako's blonde hair, "I'll be your boyfriend, Sweets", Minako squealed and jumped off the ground. Mako laughed, "Be careful what you wish for, Minako-chan." Usagi smiled, " Hi, I'm Usagi. This is Ami, Minako, and Makoto. It's nice to meet you.......Duo, right?" Duo nodded, "Yep that's my name." He sat down next to Minako and smiled, "Guess I'm the lucky guy, surrounded by 5 pretty girls." Ami stood up, an annoyed look on her face, "Don't forget the meeting is at 3:00 in the usual place. I'm going to the computer lab to do some research, I'll see you guys later." She walked away, pulling a stray blue hair behind her ear. Duo perked, "Meeting? What kind of meeting?" Makoto stood, "St-study, A study meeting. I should go help her with that research. Later.", she ran to catch up to Ami. Usagi let out a relieved sigh, Minako was blushing profusely and suddenly Duo stood, "I guess that I should get to class early, I'll talk to you girls some other time. Especially you Sweets", He winked at Minako and then walked off. "Minako-chan, do you like him? C'mon tell me, Is he your type?", Minako sat there nodding, smiling and blushing, "Oh shit, we'll be the only senshi with boyfriends." Minako looked over at the now far-away Duo, "If only things could be that simple, I mean. Let's just say Duo and I did go out, I would always feel as though I was hiding things from him. It would never be like you and Mamoru-san's relationship, He knows your a senshi but I wouldn't be able to tell my boyfriend that kind of thing ever. It would kind of be like lying to him." Usagi's smile faltered slightly, "Minako, I'll always believe in you. If you do find true love and your sure about it, I won't be upset if you tell your dream guy if your a senshi, ok!" Minako smiled and Usagi smiled back.
Duo sat down triumphantly, "Guess who got the goods on those little girlies." Heero looked at him, shock plain on his face, "You mean that you.....", His face went back to it's normal mask. Duo smiled, "What'll you pay for it? I'm just kidding. They all have a meeting to go to at 3:00. They say that it's a study meeting but before when I was spying on them the blue haired girl..." Quatre made a hissing noise, "Her name is Ami." Duo shrugged, "Fine, Ami was talking about training and a strange energy she had felt and a girl named Rei having visions." Trowa looked at them from far across the grounds, "I wonder what that could mean?" Wufei twitched uncomfortably, "Sounds like they're crazy to me. And anyway you shouldn't worry about any of them, they are weak women. What could they possibly accomplish?" Duo sneered, "And of course you had to add your chauvinistic remark that no one cares to hear." Heero shook his head, "We should all trail each of them. That way we can find out where their meeting is. Trowa, you take the tall brunette; Quatre you take the blue haired girl you seem so attached to; Duo you take the blonde with the red bow in her hair; I'll take the Usagi girl and Wufei, do you think you could find out who this Rei they speak of is?" Wufei nodded, "You will trail her and see what involvement she has with these other girls. Dismissed." Each boy got up and walked off in different directions.
