Aries's Pov
Today's the day! I looked at the mansion and smiled. I can't wait to make great memories in this house! "Hey losers! This is going to be our house!" "This is where we're going to live? YAY!" "Stop screaming in my ears Pisces!" "Sorry Scorpio..." "Come on guys! Let's explore the mansion!" "Maybe there's a secret door in the mansion!" "For the last time Sagittarius, there is no secret door in the mansion. I swear, you are going to kill me one day because of your crazy nature." "I'm a fire sign. What do you expect from me?" Capricorn face palmed. "Never mind, let's go inside and unpack." People think Capricorn is the leader because she's the one who makes rules and plans with Virgo. I am the true leader and I will never let Capricorn take my place. Never. If he does, I'm coming to kill him. "Earth to Aries! Hello? We need the keys to the mansion." "Umm yeah. The keys." I got out the keys and opened the door. Everyone gasped. "Wow. I didn't know the mansion was this big." "I know right? I heard that there's a indoor swimming pool here." "Okay everyone, let's choose our rooms. We can unpack and then we can explore the mansion." "I'm getting the biggest room losers!" "All the rooms are the same Gemini." "Oh."
Long story short, we chose our rooms and explored the mansion. We decided that the boys should have the rooms in the right side and the girls on the left. Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces went to the swimming pool and Gemini, Sagittarius, Leo and Aquarius decided to look for hidden doors. I decided to watch some TV and relax in my room. Even though I'm a fire sign, I don't like adventures a lot and I like to relax in my room during my free time. Now, what should I watch?

Finally the noisy ones are gone. Sagittarius went to find hidden doors which wasn't surprising. It isn't the first time he ignored my words. Maybe he'll exhaust himself. I should relax before Sagittarius and the other zodiacs come back. Swimming sounds fun. I went to the swimming pool and found Scorpio alone. "I thought you were with Cancer and Pisces." "They wanted to bother Aries." "Oh." Scorpio have always been the crazy water sign and seeing her depressed was concerning. "Scorpio, are you sad because they left you alone?" "I guess I'm a bit sad because I'm lonely, but it doesn't matter." She was lonely? I mean she was always with the fire signs doing tricks. "You have the fire signs." "They're the only ones who accepted me. Who says I'm crazy like them? I'm a complete opposite person when I'm with the fire signs. Why do you even care? You never cared about me before. Why now? Is it because I'm gloomy all of sudden?" Scorpio left before I could say another word. Scorpio never told us her story before she joined us. We were in the same orphanage, but some of us had parents. Scorpio would always ignore or change the subject everytime someone tries to ask her what happened to her parents. I don't want to be nosy, but somethings not right. She will tell us when she's ready. Right?

Scorpio's Pov
Why is Capricorn so nosy? He keeps pretending like he actually cares about me. Why does he care? No one tried to even talk to me before....
-flashback-
(at school) "Look at that loner. Always sitting alone. Does she even know how to talk?" (at home) "You are a disgrace! How can get the easiest question wrong and get the hardest question right? You cheated didn't you?" (outside, Scorpio is alone) No on will ever love or care about you.
-end of flashback-
I could feel tears rolling down my cheeks as I remembered all the horrible memories. I was always the mysterious loner who doesn't care about anyone. Even I hated myself until I decided to run away. I lied about being a orphan, but the police believed me and I was sent to the orphanage. I heard that my parents died from a car crash after a few months and I felt nothing. No pain. No sadness. Tears didn't run down my cheeks. My parents always accused me and they would abuse me. They would threaten me with a knife and lock me in my room for a week if I didn't behave. The past haunts me everyday and I'll have terrible nightmares that wakes me up in the middle of the night. No one knows about my past and I'm going to keep it that way. Forever.

Cancer's Pov
"Hey Pisces?" "Yeah?" "Do you feel bad that we left Scorpio alone?" "Not really. Why do you ask?" "I just feel sorry for leaving her alone. Maybe should check on her?" "Sure. Let 's go." We went to the swimming pool and found Capricorn alone in the pool. "Cap! Do you know where Scorpio went?" "I don't know, but I think you guys should apologize to her. She looked sad because you guys left her alone." "Oh..thanks for the information Capricorn. We'll apologize to her when we find her." Sad? Scorpio never payed attention to us before. Where could Scorpio be?

Short chapter! I'm so sorry about that! 🥺🥺 I realized that I didn't write/show how the characters looked like. I'll do that in the next chapter. (right now, once I find some pictures!)
I might not update everyday, but I'll write 1~3 chapters everytime I update.
Bye~!
