Long before the Zodiacs could go to Earth, they still had to wait for the new zodiac to 'grow up'.

The new zodiac..

Almost everyone had their thoughts on the new zodiac. How do they look like? What was their past? Why did they become a star?

The only ones who knew about that young zodiac, was Pisces and Capricorn. However, one sign, doesn't know a single thing about the new constellation. Of course, that sign was Sagittarius.

The fire sign was apparently so carefree that he didn't know about the newbie, until now...

Sagittarius watched as Pisces and Capricorn talked. The male was far, but close enough to hear their conversation.

"Gemini is getting too impatient," Said Capricorn, "They really tried to break in my realm just to see Aquarius!"

Aquarius? Thought Sag, Who's Aquarius?

Pisces chuckles, "Is that so?"

"Yes! It's not a laughing matter, Pi!" Capricorn shouted, huffing with red cheeks.

"You know, everyone is curious about Aquarius. But still, they can't meet him just yet. The boy still has a lot to learn about being a Zodiac." Said Pisces. "Speaking of Aquarius... Where is he?"

The goat kept quite for a while, then he said, "I locked him in my room."

"What!?" Pisces yelled, "Cap! That's mean! The boy is only twelve!"

"Well he's one hell of a smart asteroid for a twelve year old.."

"You're language."

"Sorry.."

Pisces sighed, "Just because Aqua is curious about the other signs too, doesn't mean you have to lock him in your realm."

"Does it?" He raised a brow at the older male.

The fish stayed silent, staring at the goat for a few more minutes. "Fine," he finally says, "But if Aqua complains, it's not my fault." He put an arm around on the (used to be) shorter male, "Let's go."

When they were gone, Sagittarius rubbed his chin. "Aquarius.." he said to himself, "Who is this person?" Only one way to find out.

"Gemini!" Sagittarius called, running over to the twin sign.

Gemini, who was talking to Taurus, turned around. "Oh, hello Sagittarius!" greeted Gemini as the archer stopped in front of him.

After taking a few breaths, Sagittarius asks, "Who's Aquarius?"

"Aquarius?" Gemini tapped their foot, starting to get impatient at the thought of the boy. "He's the new zodiac."

"Really?" Sag perked up, and Taurus nods.

"Yeah. Aquarius is the new sign that just arrived. Right now, I think Capricorn and Pisces are the ones taking care of him." said the bull.

"I never knew that there was a new zodiac..." Sag mumbled, "No wounder why Pisces and Cap seem so busy.."

"Yes, well... Maybe you should start listening to Cap's announcements from now on."

"Maybe I should," Sagittarius smirked, "But maybe I shouldn't."

Breaking into Capricorn's realm was easy. He just had to break down the door.... He didn't worry though, Capricorn could fix it... Right?

Well, Sagittarius couldn't hold his curiosity any longer either. Like Gemini, he was determined to meet this Aquarius person. Walking into the room, Sag looked around noticing how everything was so organized and had so much books.
