Sky High

Chapter 1: News

"Miku your going to be late!" I hear the voice of my roomate pounding against my ear as she shakes me. "What's the occasion? You never wake me up like this so what's wrong?" I replied trying to sound awake the best I can. "Today is the recruitment for more Tricolor pilots!" As the words of my roomate Melissa hit my ear I realized today was my only chance to be recruited to the most famous airline. "Oh shit! I need to get ready quick!" I ran in a hurry as if I was on fire. Gathering all my things felt interminable as I grabbed a cup of green tea. "Melissa I'm leaving the keys here for you." She gave me a thumbs up as I opened the door into the big narrow hall.

I took the handle from my suitcase and started making my way down to the lobby. "Ah hello Miku!" Will you be checking out for the evening?" I smiled and nodded yes to the lady behind the counter of the lobby. "Alright have a safe trip," the lady chuckled gently.

As I stepped out the lobby door a gust of cold breezy summer air filled my nose with the sweet smell of flowers. The sky was clear blue with the sun glimmering with luster. The light of the sun seemed to reflect off the shiny smooth sidewalk. "Good morning Ms. Hatsune!" Would you like the list of trains departing today?" the man asked. "No I'm quite fine. I'm going to get a taxi as fast as possible to sign up for the tricolor recruitment today!" I said with a big smile. The man looked shocked. "Well you better go then! I hope you get the job," the man said. I smiled at him and sprinted over to the edge of the sidewalk. I put out my hand. A taxi was driving by. "Taxi!" I hollered. The taxi driver stopped and rolled down his window. "Good morning mam," the man said with a gentle tone. "Good morning," I replied back. "My name is Mr. Ranson. What would you like me to call you," Mr. Ranson insisted. "You can call me Miku," I replied. "Alrighty then Miku. So where would you like to go today?" I gave a big gentle smile and said the words "Tricolor Airline."
