Day One-Unti's Journal

Dear Journal,

I'm trying to keep track of all these kids and creatures but it's no use. They're just kinda... strange, y'know? I met this one kid, who's name was Todd, and he kept jumping around and introducing Jackie Sara and I to everyone in the school. If she and/or I weren't anywhere nearby he would still be mentioning some strange fact he somehow found out about Jackie Sara or I. I didn't mind him as much as Katlynn though. Katlynn and her twin sister Bellatrix are in their senior year, and are gonna be leaving soon for college. I can't really tell whether I'm excited or bummed, because honestly, even if she and I don't talk too much to each other, I think Bellatrix is actually pretty chill and nice. Perhaps her sister is too, I just haven't seen that side of her yet. She's kinda just always scanning the crowd for a hot guy and a nerd, while Bellatrix is usually either chilling and listening to Nirvana or Fall Out Boy or Laughing like crazy with Todd and some other kids. You'd think that kids like these would be one of those idiotic jerk like types, and even though they may sometimes act like it, actually... they aren't. I've heard Kat is an amazing designer and is working towards becoming a total fashion designer and Bellatrix hasn't been doing well with math, but she's great at science. I hear they're also both amazing singers. Hey, maybe this is all rumors... but it may also be true. No matter what, I guess I'm willing to give them a chance. I mean, Todd and Jack seem pretty chill with them. OH, speaking of which, I also met Jack Mark in the cafeteria and he's probably the most chill guy I've met so far. He doesn't mind me being the way I am... He's nice, funny, kind...

Oh, I should probably mention, I'm a Makhaira chéri, which is basically a ghost with sharp stuff for hands. I've been working on trying to be careful. Especially after being moved with Jackie Sara from our home worlds to this "Lost Island" place. It's a strange name, I know... I didn't want to leave, but if I stayed I would have been locked alone in that mansion on the island I awoke on.

Iiiit's a long story. Another thing I should mention is that all the people here are different species and creatures. As I said, I'm pretty much part ghost. Todd is a fox, Katlynn and Bellatrix are wolves, the Principle of the Lost Island High is a tiger, Jack is a black lab, and I don't really know what Jackie Sara is... By the looks of it, seems like she doesn't know either. All we know about her is that her parents died and now she's a Christian or something. I'm still kinda curious about that. When I first met her on that boat that took us here, I remember her crying. I kinda became her only friend after that. That's how I knew these things. I still don't understand who "kidnapped" us though, or why. I like this place better anyway. It's full of interesting people- or- creatures, sorry. Some are nice, some are rude, some are jerks, and some act like they would die for you. Literally, I'm not joking. Jackie Sara has kind of faded away from me a little bit though ever since we came here... she's made so many friends, and even though I've met so many people, I feel I've only becomes friends with, like, two. Jack Mark, Todd Cooper... that's about it. I mean, I'm not complaining or anything, Todd is a goof and cheers me up anytime I'm around him, he just kinda bothers me sometimes. Jack is... nice. As I've said, he's funny, kind, he listens to me... There's something about him though that kind of... changes things. Recently, I've noticed every time I go near him he looks at me like he's so happy to see me and it makes my heart beat faster for some reason, then he makes a face like someone just stabbed him in the shoulder! I don't get it. Ah well... I guess it's just guys being guys.

They all seem so... happy, somehow. The guys and girls at this school, or the entire island for that matter, constantly seem so happy no matter what. They don't always get along, but they always seem to find a way to get back together and make up. All these friends... couples...

...Families...

I wish I knew my parents. When I woke up on that island I was just floating above the ocean. Literally, I was up straight, floating right above the ocean. My feet would have barely touched the water. If I had any. I could barely remember anything. My name, my friends, my family, I don't even know if I had friends! But I feel like, like, something bad happened to them. And possibly, something bad happened to me too. Maybe... maybe I wasn't always like this..? Maybe I was a human, or a Skunk for all I know! I don't know for sure what happened... but I have a few thoughts. Ideas. That's all they are. They're lost memories.

What matters now, is I make friends and get along with the others and move on.

Before T.E.C.H finds me again and sends me off to another world.
