The fire, water and air signs stared with wide eyes and shock at the mystery boy who continued to look at them with the same curious expression. After a moment of silence, he spoke up again, but louder this time.

"Answer my question. Who are you?"

Leo was about to introduce themselves, but a knife that had just been thrown at Cancer's direction cut him off. She screamed in surprise and ducked low to the ground and didn't come up until after a full minute had gone by.

"Holy zodiac, why are people trying to murder us?!" Not even a moment after she said that, a huge stag with a girl on top of it came galloping from the depths on the woods. Then a boy came to view as well, the same boy who had thrown the knife.

The boy sighed and turned towards the other boy. "Honestly Taurus, you can't just go shooting your arrows reckle-"

He stopped mid-sentence after he saw the 9 unknown foreigners staring at them with frightened eyes. The girl noticed as well and cocked her head in confusion, but there was an intimidating glint in her eyes.

"Who are you guys?" Then she turned to the 'Taurus'. "And why are you shooting your arrows at unarmed people?"

He pouted and folded his arms. "No I didn't." The other signs raised their eyebrows and jerked their thumbs towards the arrow on the tree, causing the boy's face to heat up in embarrassment. "Ok maybe I did, but they just came out of nowhere with a Phoenix!"

The other boy and girl froze in shock. "What? A Phoenix? Are you positive you weren't seeing things?"

'Taurus' puffed his cheeks out. "100% sure. If you don't believe me, ask them!" He motioned towards the 3 other signs who waved sheepishly at the two. "Guilty as charged. Yup, we came here using a Phoenix. In case you don't believe us, here's proof."

Sagi summoned her Phoenix again, which caused the earth signs' eyes to widen in shock, amazement and disbelief. The fire sign smirked at their reaction, but didn't say anything.

"HOLY ZODIAC THIS IS SO AMAZING!!" The boy exclaimed in glee while eyeing the bird up and down. He then turned towards the other two. "See?" He smirked and stuck his tongue out.

The other boy rolled his eyes at him and spoke with thick sarcasm. "Very mature Taur." He then turned towards the others. "What's your names?"

Leo smiled slightly. "Glad you asked, I've been trying to say that for a while now. I'm Leo and that's-"

"Aries." The fire sign then glared at the lion, knowing that if he didn't cut him off, he would be teased with some sort of stupid nickname. Leo sensed this and pouted.

"Yeah. And that's Sagi," he pointed towards the female fire sign, "Scorpio," he jerked his thumb towards the water sign, "Cancer and Pisces," he motioned his hand towards the two girls, "and that's-"

"Gemini, but I also go by Gem!"

"And-"

"Aquarius! Call me Aqua if u wanna. Hey that rhymed."

Leo made a 'seriously?' face, obviously annoyed and tired of people interrupting him and started to introduce the last person. "Last but not least-"

"Libra! Wassup?" He then made a peace sign with his fingers. Leo shouted, frustrated with the interruptions and started to mumble gibberish under his breath. The others aside from the air signs looked at him with a 'wtf' face.

Gemini ignored the fire sign and smirked at Libra and ruffled his hair. "Feel free to call him Libruh by the way."

Libra glared at her and fixed his hair. "Do not call me that."
