The Zodiac Mission

Chapter 1 [Meeting Each Other]

     Today was the day, Aries thought. He climbed out of bed and got dressed. He was wearing something simple, just grey joggers, a white shirt that along the chest said 'handsome', a black zip-up jacket, and some black tennis-shoes. He grabbed his suitcase and his carry on, then went downstairs putting them by the door. Breakfast was being served on the table, it consisted of, bacon, eggs, hash browns, biscuits and gravy. Aries sat down at his chair and started to eat, then heard a knock on the door.

     "Aries, honey, can you get that please?" His mom asked from the living room. Aries got up and opened the door to be faced with a ginning Sagittarius.

    "Come on in." Aries opened up the door wider letting Sagittarius into his home. Sagittarius put his luggage next to Aries' before going to sit down at the table. Sagittarius and Leo were Aries best friends, which means his house was their house. Sagittarius started piling food onto his plate.

     "Are you excited to go to the academy? Sagittarius asked.

     "Yes, which speaking of, we need to leave soon, our plane is going to leave in an hour and a half." Aries replied. Sagittarius nodded and they got in the car and drove by Leo's house who was already waiting outside. Leo threw his luggage in the car and climbed into the back seat. Sagittarius started to drive to the airport.

     "New York here we come." Leo celebrated. "Are you excited to meet some ladies." 

     Aries laughed at Leo's wiggling eyebrows, "I don't know, it depends." Aries shrugged. They have arrived at the airport, checked their luggage, passed through security, and were now seated on the plane. Two rows ahead of them they heard two girls talking.

     "I don't think I want to go anymore, I've heard some shady stuff happens at this academy. They say people get powers. Powers don't exist." A girl with a blonde ponytail said.

     "Those are probably just stories, besides I heard that the founder of the school will be assisting us and 10 other people, isn't that cool?! We get to meet the one and only Cassiopeia Greene." This girl with round glasses had so much excitement in her voice. The three boys looked at each other.

     "They are going to the academy too?" Sagittarius whispered in wonderment.

     "Taur, do you think either of us can become a villain?" The girl with glasses spoke again, excitement had been drained from her voice, it was left emotionless. The girl, 'Taur' shrugged.

     "I mean of course you won't be one, your fun-loving, practical, and down-to-earth, but I don't want to be separated from you." Glasses girl which had no emotion in her voice, 'Taur' just hugged the poor girl.

     "Look we are here! It's so...busy." Aquarius had said re-positioning her glasses. Aquarius and Taurus went to the luggage claim to get their suitcases before meeting with their chauffeur, he was holding a sign with five names.

     "Who's Aries, a name I can't pronounce, and Leo?" Taurus asked the girl who didn't know herself. Aquarius just shrugged. They were helped into a black van, the two girls sat in the back.

     "They must be going to the academy too." Aquarius pointed out. "I can't wait until the ceremony." Taurus laughed at Aquarius.

     "Me neither, I wonder how the choose - or know - whether we are a hero or a villain..." Taurus was lost in thought before 3 boys came into the van, being quite loud. One with piercing green, excitement filled eyes looked at Taurus and Aquarius, before introducing himself.
