The Queen's Gambit: Season Zero

Chapter 1

So yeah, watched Season 0 on YouTube and the plotbunnies plotted. So have this little Spin-Off Series to Queen's Gambit. It's not canon in the normal Queen's Gambit Universum, but more of an alternative universum.

I'm making Au's of my AU's, that deep I'm now XD

Anyway, enjoy Season Zero with Sehrazat and a very dark Afya :P

(*)

Sehrazat wondered where all had gone wrong in their lives.

Was she dramatic?

Perhaps.

Her mother wasn't supposed to teach at Domino University yet! She should have begun teaching there next half year.

However, the Professor, who currently had the job, decided one day after another that he was sick of city life and not only quit his job but also moved into the wilderness of Japan.

So Domino University called desperate her mother, who still taught in Lisabon, if she could come sooner.

Domino in Japan had a special place in her mother's heart, that's where she had met her husband and Sehrazat's late father.

This was the main reason why she wanted to teach there.

So she said yes.

Also started the Faizan and the Schariq's, Kihana (Sehrazat's best friend) family to pack their things for Japan.

Of course, that's when Uncle Djamal had an accident at his work, breaking both his legs.

He couldn't travel like this!

For the first time in 3000 years, the Schariq and Faizan had to go for a while their separate ways.

Unbelievable!

Sehrazat and her mother Amira would move first to Domino and wait that the Schariq's, Rahila, Djamal, Kihana and little Sadiye, would join them after Djamal was healthy again.

The big house they had decided to move into together, stayed empty and Sehrazat and Amira moved into a flat.

It was so weird.

Sehrazat wasn't used to being really alone with her mother.

Since she could remember, there were Aunty Rahila, Uncle Djamal, Kihana and Sadiye with them.

Let her rephrase it, not weird, it was just plain wrong.

She missed them all so much, the most Kihana.

What should she do without her best friend at a new school?

Or even in life?!

Kihana protected and loved her.

Sehrazat never faced the first day in a new school alone.

Oh dear Isis, she felt like throwing up.

Brushing her mid-length dark blue hair, the Egyptian girl looked into the mirror.

By the Goddess Isis, Domino High School Uniform was an eyesore. Orange Blazer with green skirt and bow.

She may have orange eyes, like Topasz, but still what a colour combination, it didn't make her look good.

Unenthusiastic she made her way to the kitchen where her mother had made her pancakes.

At least something nice.

"Now princess, I know you are nervous since you will be without Kihana.", began Amira, looking at her daughter, who poked her pancakes more than eating them. "So I want to give you this."
