Just finished adding stuff to my blog. Got a new section on quotes. Will try to change them every once in a while. Just love the skin, can't get enough of it. Hope you love the story. Will try to add another chapter today.

Haven't been writing for a long time and missed out some very interesting stuff. Like the Malaysian trip and the Humanities Camp. Try to fill you in as briefly as possible.

M'sia trip
day1:
Met in school bus came late. had to wait very long to get thru immigration coz we chose the wrong line.
Went for breakfast. Most people makan at cafe while some of us ate at the traditional coffee shop with prata for breakfast. Very nice to eat and damn cheap. Too bad we had to wait so long becos the guy forgot about our orders.
We traveled in a bus which was not bad. I shared seat with jo jo. The seats could go back and there were those leg rester thingys. Too bad leg room too constricted.
First stop was the fruit farm. Saw lots of fruits and some animals. How the fruits are harvested and stuff like that. They gave us a box of fruits so need not buy. Then also got sell honey which a bought 1 bottle and I have no idea where it is now. I think it's been thrown away.
Next was lunch had seafood and it was damn tasty. Wanted to eat more but very piah sei because no one else was eating as we were sitting with people from other classes. Not used to eat so in the end wasted loads of food.
Then went to ostrich farm. The owner was from Singapore. Show as ostrich egg shell damn big the yolk is freaking big. 1 ostrich egg=30 chicken egg. They had rides on the ostrich wanted to go but I too heavy. Wahhhhh! But nevermind. They were selling ostrich eggs but i lucky convinced myself not to buy. Put where only collect dust.
Then went shopping. Never bought much. Very tempting to buy vcds but in the end never. Wanted to buy a pair of flats but too small as usual. So just bought some friendship band string and star paper. Then we left.
Next went to see firefiles. Very hard to see because it just rained. but at least still saw. Peggie accidently took a photo with flash and everyone was like screaming. But all in all it was a great memory.
Then we went for dinner. It was seafood again. Very nice. But this time I sit with the people I know and we did not have enough food to eat. We ate until everything was damn clean.
Then we left for hotel. The trip there very long. On TV the only good thing to watch was Miss Universe and it got boring. Later we played cards with anne and Gerry. Forgot to mention I was staying with Peggie and Stella. We were like taking photos of ourselves in the room. There was the incident with the cockroach which appeared and I caught it with a plastic bag and ran towards the lift lobby to throw. Then we all pray that it would not be able to get out of the dustbin. Then later we watched TV till like 12am for me lah. Watching boston public. The other 2 slept at like 2am.

day2:
Woke at 6 plus I think. I went to bath. The other 2 woke up with the nose running like crazy. Then we all went done for breakfast. The best thing to eat was beehoon and it was going like hot cakes. Always very fast finish. Then we went to our rooms to collect our bags but before that we went to the pool to look see look see. We took pictures there together again. Then we went to our rooms to get our bags. The lift damn long then we were late for the briefing. Then had a lecture by Mrs Poi. After that we left but before we took pictures again at the spiral staircase.
We left for the Johor tourism building. Had a talk about the tourism in singapore. introduced us to some nice places. Offered us some snacks later. Gave us brochures on malaysia. The curry puffs were delish.
Next we had lunch again. It was seafood again. The fish and prawns were damn tasty. We ate till our plates were clean.
Next we visited the fish farm which was like a boat ride across the restaurant. We could have swam there if we could. Then went to see the mangroves using the boat.
Next we saw Kong Kong village and had to see what type of palces there were along that road. Then we went to visit the charcoal farm. The mosquitos there were damn ferocious. Talking about them now is alraedy making me itchy. They damn scary. Everyone was like looking for the off. After the talk on the charcoal farm was over most of us ran back to the bus. My hands and especially my legs had a lot of bites. Lucky Peggie got mopiko.
Then we had a shopping trip before we went back to Singapore. Went to giant to buy some groceries like bread, snacks and sushi. Bought Lene's earing's as well. Wanted to buy clothes but nothing nice. In the end just had an ice cream on the way back to the bus. Then we went home.

Humanities Camp
day1:
Came early. Had to sort out the campers and give them their shirts. My group only had 8 ppl since my group had 2 leaders. Then introduced ourselves and played some games. Had them colour their camp booklets. My group had a great artist- Madeline/Maddy. She could draw damn well. Her book was like filled with seals. Got 2nd for the best book. Next brought them to computer lab and had them do some map thing while we leaders went to labrador park to look around the place. Very sian of walking. We had lunch first. After walking we had loads of time. Started talking crap and me and Theo studyed for our phys test. Next when the campers came, we went to our stations to wait for them. At each station, they had to do finish some questions. But at my station, they had to do a short play on how singaporeans bravely fought against the Japanese. Miss NC was judging them. They all mostly sucked.
When finished, we went back and they all went to bath while we set up the games we prepared for them. Had spider web, dressing up and a lot of running. Became very sweaty and it started to rain. Spider web was most fun. They went again and again and again. Later they had movie. Everyone thought it was some boring documentary but it was 13 going on 30. Love that movie. But me, thee, Peggy and jocelyn went to bath while the other 3 went to jaga the campers. After finish, there was supper and then light's out. We leaders had a debrief and made sure the campers were asleep then we too went to sleep.

day2:
woke up at 5 plus to use toilet but a lot of campers beat us to it. Then had breakfast and a game which had to use computers and lots of running again. Waited to leave for sentosa. Then had lunch at siloso beach. Next had the amazing race. Quite fun. But still damn tiring. At the 2nd last stop I changed with Theo cause I was too tired. They forgot their booklet again. Had to race for the bus to give it to them. Went back with Miss Shereen. Then lucky even though they were the last group, they made it in time. Then had free time until 5 plus which we would proceed to underwater world. One of my campers lost their phone and glasses in the water.
Then we had a talk from the ppl there and the campers went to bath. Next had dinner. It was damn nice lor. We also had some tourists who said that they wanted to 'try' the food but in the end they took so much just to make it their dinner. Then later we had the campers go to underwater world(UWW) for some looking around and intro about the animals there by us. Next went to see the musical fountain. Felt very tired by then so not very awake during the show. Then we went back to bath while there was a video going on. Then they had a quiz where they needed to go to UWW to find the answers. Had supper. Then later we moved into UWW to sleep. Took the campers damn long to settle down. By the time sleep it was already 1am I think. Then some of us had meeting with teachers which was to makan cheese cake. Miss Teh very cute. We say cannot eat becos later must brush teeth but she say during camp no need to brush one lah. She also say use the orange skin as air freshener. Then went to sleep.

day3: woke up about 6 plus went to brush teeth. Too lazy too bath. Too troublesome too. Then had breakfast. Next we had the campers watch a video. Went to UWW shop to buy stuff and went to dolphin lagoon. The dolphin lagoon very fun. We could touch them. They fell very rubbery. Next time I want to go back there and work. Next we went back to UWW. Had to tally up the scores and had them to do cheers. My group damn embarrassing lor they don wanna say only maddie and nella were the ones doing it. Finished and we went back to show gave out prizes took group photo then went home. But I damn tired I tell you that I couldn't study physics at all.

earth
You are an Earth Fairy. You enjoy being around
people, but sitting in the middle of the
wilderness reading a book or just admiring the
scenery is more your style. A sketchbook full
of wildflowers and wildlife, you're fascinated
by the great outdoors and what lies beyond. But
being so spacey can lead to disaster. You might
miss the next assignment in class if you keep
staring at that bird out the window. Try to
focus a little more on real-time life, but
don't give up your habits to become one with
nature.


What are you? (10 different outcomes)
brought to you by Quizilla

Peacefully
You are a peaceful sleeper. You recognize that
sleep is a necessary part of life, and
understand that there is no way for you to
fully appreciate everything around you if you
dont give yourself a break once in a while.
You are a very calm and collected person who
seems to have all of their ducks in a row, so
to speak. You enjoy life without getting
over-enthusiastic and appreciate harmony in all
things.


How do you Sleep? (Anime Pics)
brought to you by Quizilla

Morning
Your personality is best represented by Morning.
You are a calm person and really nice to
everyone, even if they are a bit...odd
sometimes. You are relatively happy with your
life at the moment and sometimes feel sorry for
everyone who seems to be surrounded with
problems all the time. You probably get pretty
good grades in school and know quite a few
people, even if you arent close friends with
many of them.

romantic girl
Ok you are a romantic anime girl and you love and
care for a lot of people.There is no evil in
you soul or your heart.Though sometimes people
don't feel the same way as you do you keep on
trying to change their mind.You love to help
people out and you are always happy.Keep on
trying to make the whole world smile because
you know smiles are contagious ^_^.Oh and if it
seems like there is nobody who could love you
as much as you could love them it doesn't
matter the thing is that the only thing that
matters is that he cares and loves you and it
doesn't matter how much well maybe it does but
don't set you standards to high cuz then you'll
find nobody


If You Were An Anime Character What Would You Look Like?(Girls Only)
brought to you by Quizilla

http://members.rogers.com/lim.jennifer/green.jpg
In your eyes, people see life... You see yourself
as just an average person! You enjoy life, love
wildlife, but also enjoy time with those who
know you best. You like to get outdoors and let
your mind wander over all of the mysteries god
gave to you. You don't really have a certain
sanctuary because you're so well-rounded, but
you like having fun and adventures, but can
also be found sitting quietly about, reading a
book. You have a pretty good life ahead of you,
never trade it for anything else :)


What Lies Behind Your Eyes?
brought to you by Quizilla

Wolf
Your critter companion is the Noble Wolf. You are
a very mature, down-to-earth person. You enjoy
being outdoors and are probably a good student
in school. You are a loyal friend and a great
advice giver, and you will always be around
when a friend is in need. You love reading,
both for pleasure and information, and your
idea of heaven probably consists of a cozy
armchair, a book, and a nice cup of coffee.
Sounds wonderful!


What Kind of Critter Would be your Best Companion? (Anime pics!)
brought to you by Quizilla

Music
Your hidden talent lies in Music. You are calm,
intelligent, and shy. You play music to soothe
your soul, and hardly anyone else who hears it
can resist its near-magical quality. You dont
try to impose on other peoples thoughts and
opinions though, and they appreciate and admire
you for that. You may not show your emotions
very much, but tranquil waters run deep, and
you are very, very deep.

Your Heart is Red


What Color is Your Heart?
brought to you by Quizilla

Water element
Your element is Water. You have a calm aura around
you and are in tune with the world around. You
observe it but rarely interfere. Because of
your shy and timid nature you will not have so
many friends in your life. But then again,
large crowds aren't your thing anyway. You are
comfortable on your own and are reserved to
others who you don't know or know very little
of. You know everyone out there does not want
to be your friend, and knowing that is good.
However, people who don't know you that well
thinks that you are cold and distant since you
don't want to talk to them. Although you mean
no harm, you can't always be perfectly
understood in the world. No one can. Life in
general are you quite serene with even if there
are some things you don't like. Your love-life
is not so full of boys/girls, but if you
flirted more with the ones you were interested
in I'm sure something would happen. The hobbies
you choose are calmer ones, you are no party
girl that likes to drink and make-out with
three or more guys/girls in one night. Reading
a book or swimming is more your thing. Rate and
message!


What is your element? [with pics + 7 outcomes + detailed answeres!]
brought to you by Quizilla

Your embrace is as warm as the sun's rays on a hot
summer day :) You're heart is made of pure gold
and you only want the best for your friends and
family members. You see good in everything and
everyone; even when doubtful at times. You're
always beautiful because you've got that
genuine smile of truth and reassurance :D A hug
means many things: love, hurt, anger,
celebration, kindness, support, and thank
you... In this case, yours stands for love,
support, kindness and celebration. Love,
support, and kindness towards the people you
care about most and your beliefs, and
celebration towards your prosperous life you've
been living and will continue to live! But just
don't get caught up in everything, keep
yourself down to earth; great things can fall
apart :)


What Does Your Embrace Feel Like?
brought to you by Quizilla

~*~Result nr 10~*~


Your power is: Time Control


Explanation: You have the ability to
freeze, push forward or go back in time. In
good purposes it is used to prevent bad deeds,
and the opposite for evil purposes.
As a person your emotional level has been on
hold. For one reason or another emotions has
reduced and now you aren't so full of life. And
of course, this does not sadden you since you
could care less. Sometimes though you can be
hit by emotioal waves inside but you block it
all out. You don't search for something that
could make you happy since you have no hope in
that area any longer. People probably see you
as annoying because you're not involved and
just stand there. You probably don't have that
many friends either, and you feel like you are
with them because that's what you normally do.
You stick to your habits and don't appreciate
changes.
Negative aspects: One day all emotions
are gonna surface again, and that day will be
very painful. Instead it is more wise to start
up the emotional level bit by bit, so it won't
come as a big chock.




What Power is Compatible With You?

water ballerina
You are a water person. You are flexable and very
nice. You are quiet so people who don't know
you thnk you are weird or just mean and high
and mighty like. You aren't though. You like
to have a good time and you also just like to
relax and just enjoy the stars.


Who are you inside?
brought to you by Quizilla

HASH(0x8d527d8)
You're a very mellow, care-free person. Your
exactly what calm, cool, and collected mean.
You never overreact or panic in a bad situation
and you always know what to do. Everyone goes
to you for advice because you never lose your
head so your very reliable. You tend to take
everything in stride, like in school your moto
is just sit back and relax not to say you dont
pay attention and work, but you dont overexert
yourself. Even though people come to you for
counciling(sp?) you can still be very quite,
your not good with making new friends, but your
extremely close to the ones you have. Remember
its ok to put your emotions out there even
though there is a chance they might get hurt.
Also in school sometimes its good to stress out
a little, just because you think you dont need
to study doesnt mean you should'nt, and also
try to push yourself more even though you might
be good where you are doesnt mean you can,t be
better. Check out my new short story.

Your Hidden Power Is Water


You have a rather calm soul, but when tempted
will get pissed off at those who bug you. You
do whatever you can in your powers to help
those of your allies and have a okay taste for
human kind, but you find them rather annoying
on occasions.

Gem Stone: Saphire, Eye Color:Ice
Blue,Hair Color:Dark Blue that's long

Quote:If you wait for me
Then I'll come for you. Although I've travelled
far, I always hold a place for you
In my heart. If you think of me, If you miss me
once in a while, Then I'll return to you. I'll
return and fill that space in your heart

Rise
Your wise quote is: "Our greatest glory is not
in never falling, but in rising everytime we
fall" by Confucius.
Yes indeed, you see true strenght can only be
seen when a person has "fallen". Only
then one can tell how they will handle it. Just
don't make others fall so you can know who they
really are. You on the other hand may be a very
quick recoverer and don't let people bring you
down. You are your own, and you're find with
that. Emotional issues is something you handle
rather nicely.


What wise quote fits you?(pics) UPDATED

zvnc
You're an Autum. You're much more laid back then
most and you're very comfortable in new
situations. You rather let things go with the
flow than try to change them. You have a lot of
close friends who love you because you can help
them with their problems. You're a very patient
person and it take a lot to get you rattled.
You're definately a lover not a hater. (If you

What season are you? (pics)
brought to you by Quizilla

Plain Sight
B:

Your Beauty lies
in Plain Sight. Plain, simple and the girl next
door. People tend overlook you as you are the
"normal girl", but you're actually
very beautiful. And you have plenty about you to
set you apart, but more that
lets you blend. People love the stability you have
because as others may come
and go, you will always be there and you may always
be the same. You like simple
things and that's what people like about you. You
most likely enjoy things most
consider normal, like movies, shopping, that sort
of thing and are very friendly
and probably have many friends. You are sweet and
kind and that shows on you,
but you're also strong and not very naive. You're a
rather well-rounded
individual. Even though some people pass you off as
just another girl, shrug it
off because they don't know what they're
missing.



Some Things
That Represent You:



Element:
Earth, Light Animal: Cat Color:
Pinks, Blues, Browns Song:

Gemstone:

Elf Girl
Your easy-going personality is best represented by
the bow and arrow. You probably dont like the
spotlight too much, and would much rather be
backstage making sure everything is working
right. You have a cool, level head and a broad
perspective on life. This combination makes
you an excellent advice-giver.

I don't know why I changed my blog skin. Guess I kinda got bored with the other one. Anyway, I hope you people like this one. Had too change the size if not it would be too small and I couldn't fit the tag board. I loved this skin the moment I found it. Actually I like all the skins this person made. Very nice, very light feel and I love the colous.

Anyway this week is Prelim and I think I just heard my brother come back. Anyway about Prelim, this week just finished the ok subjects next week then is the hard stuff. Had fun doing the bio paper yesterday, the fact that I didn't know anything. Hope today's maths paper 2 is not gonna be that bad. My bro just brought back dvds. So happy just that I have to control till next week to watch. Haiz. Anyway better go back to sleep. Already 2am.

Grace and Nicholas sat down near the lake and talked.

"So this is where you have been the last time 10 years. I did not think that the school you were talking about was this one. I only saw you like 5 times during this 10 years. Why couldn't you visit more. All you do is write and I miss you."

"Well I missed you too. I couldn't visit because I had to do work for Dumbledore and besides I couldn't let anyone tail me home and get you especially Voldermort. You're too precious too me
you know. But I am so proud off you. You got into gryffinndor just like me and you have become the mistress of the cards."

"That's sweet of you. Guess what I'm a sorcerer too. But I wonder Professor Clow said that sorcerers can never be muggle-born. They can only be born from sorcerers only."

"Maybe its because your special that's why." said her brother rather hesitantly and Grace noticed at once.

"Is there something you are keeping from me?"

"No. Why would I be?" Then he quickly changed the subject. "Was that Syusuke I saw with you? Did he do anything to you. Dumbledore never told me that brat was coming." he said in a rather angry tone. He knows what happened to Grace. The Grace gave out a small laugh. "What's so funny?"

"You sound like Kunimitsu. So overprotective of your little sister."

"Like I care. Oh before I forget did you see Choutarou your long lost love." teased her brother.

Grace blushed. "He isn't my long lost love. Why you!" Then she was about to hit her brother but he blocked her. Then she was about to kick him but he grabbed her leg and tossed her upside down and she landed with a bump.

"Don't forget I was taught by the same person as you." Then he went to help his sister up but she kicked him off his feet. "Sneaky as always I see."

"Master always said to never let your guard down." Master taught them martial arts.

"Yeah I forgot that one." said her brother rubbing his head while getting up. Then they sat back down and talked about old times. They talked until Grace fell asleep on her brother's shoulders. 'I guess she's tired. She had a long day. Better bring her back to her dorm.' thought Nicholas. Then he carried he back to her dorm.

~Outside the fat lady~

"Oh hello Nicholas."

"Good evening fat lady. Nincompoop."

The fat lady then swung the door open and he entered the common room. There were 3 people still up. Lene, Erin and Syusuke noticed Nicholas walk in with a sleeping Grace in his arms. He walked pass Syusuke practically ignoring his existence. Then he walked towards Lene and Erin.

"Where is the girl's dorm?"

"Follow us." said Lene and followed them up while Syusuke was left in common room alone.

On the way up to the dorm, Nicholas asked "So do you know what you all are going to be doing tomorrow?"

"Yup! Dumbledore sent us a letter just now. Though Grace is going to have the most work cut out for her. She has both tennis and martial arts to deal with and she also has to help freeze the lake." said Erin then she showed him the paper which said who was in charge of what.

Soccer- Harry, David, Jake, Matt, Ron (Helper)

Ice Skating- Hermoine, Erin, Carol, Ginny (Helper)

Tennis- Grace, Syusuke, Kunimitsu, Yuuta, Choutarou

Basketball- Laura, Jewel, Lene, Sk, Draco (Helper)

Archery- Teri, Kimiko, Ying, Hope, Fred (Helper)

Martial Arts- Grace, Professor Nicholas, Faith, George (Helper)

Please inform these people to meet in the great hall by 7am. Thank you.

"We have no choice for martial arts as Grace is the only one who is on the same level as me. I tend to go overboard and the rest of you would get hurt." said Nicholas. Then they reached the girl's room. Nicholas put her on her bed tucked her in, said goodnight to the girls and left quietly. Then he walked back down the stairs and saw Syusuke still there.

"You! You better stay away from my sister and if you ever hurt her again I will personally murder you." With that he stormed off.

~Next day~

Grace just woke up from a dream. It was a weird one. 'It was so scary, everything was burning and my parents were surrounded by fire. There was a vicious laugh coming from a hooded figure and then there was a scream. I hope there was nothing to it.' she thought. Then she saw Lene, Erin and Hermoine surrounding her.

"Are you alright? You're sweating." asked Hermoine.

"Don't worry. I'm fine." replied Grace.

"Then you better hurry. Its already 6.30 and we have to be in the great hall by 7 for the debrief." said Lene. After hearing that, Grace ran out off the room and into the bathroom to have a quick shower. She came out wearing blue shorts, a white shirt, a beige jacket and sneakers.

"We better hurry. Wait we need our gear before we go." said Erin. "Erm Hermoine you go see whether the rest are awake yet." Then she left. "Grace we need you to use create and create us a few things."

"Sure, what do you need?" Grace said as she called upon create.

"Well we need 10 tennis rackets, 3 for yourself, 50 tennis balls, 5 basketballs and a pump, 20 pairs of ice skates, 5 soccer balls and a pump as well and 10 sets of bows and arrows." said Lene.
"Isn't that a lot and don't Teri and Kimiko have their own bows." said Grace.

"Well yeah but their bows are only allowed to be used by them and the goods Mr Clow said would be easier to get by create. Oh ya you also have to help my brother freeze the lake later." said Erin.

"What am I a servant?" said Grace.

"Stop complaining. We need to go now." said Lene. Then they left the room with all the stuff with Grace having to float them in mid-air. They met up with the rest of the people from Gryffindor and ran towards the Great Hall since they were about to be late. When they reached, everyone was already waiting there.

"Come sit, sit." said Dumbledore. "You all know what you have to do right. Well we will start at 9am. However we will have to start preparing by 7.30. Have your breakfast while we have the debrief. Thank you for having accepted this task on such short notice. After breakfast, Draco, Carol, Ron and Kimiko please do to your dorms and wake everyone up and tell them to be in the great hall by 8.30 to have their breakfast. Grace, Syusuke, Erin, Lene, Sk, Laura, Kunimitsu, Jake and Teri will leave to set up what they need for their demonstration and Professor Reed will help you. The rest of you will sort out the stuff behind you (the stuff Grace created) and bring it to the designated places. Each place has a sign to tell you where each activity will be held. For those who have finished eating may now leave to do your job."

So they all left. Grace and Jake left to freeze the lake. Laura made the poles needed for the basketball and tennis courts and soccer field. Then Grace had sand to cover the areas needed for the basketball courts and Lene and Erin melted it make it hard. Then Sk cooled it down with water. The rest helped to set up the nets needed and the archery field. By 8.45 they were done and prepared and all the students were in the Great Hall already. They students would be going in their houses with each group stopping at each stop for 2 hours

By 9am, you could see the students filing out off the castle. (I will describe every stop one by one.) At the tennis courts, each one took turns to show different shots such as top spins and slice shots. Then there were matches played both in doubles with Syuuske-Yuuta pair VS Grace-Choutarou pair and Kunimitsu as the umpire. The match lasted for about 45 minutes then it went on to a singles match between Syusuke and Choutarou and another match between Yuuta and Grace. In the Syusuke VS Choutarou match they were playing like their life depended on it. Only they and Kunimitsu knew why they were playing so hard. The winner of the most number of matches gets to take Grace to the ball. They had made that deal yesterday in their room with Kunimitsu as their witness. He had made sure that there would be a no tie break game since he knew that it would go on for a long time. Each one of them had shown the crowd their special moves. Yuuta his 'rising shot' and 'twist spin shot'. Choutarou his invisible swing' and 'scud serve'. Kunimitsu his 'Zero-shiki Drop shot' and 'Tezuka Zone'. Syusuke his 'Disappearing serve' and all his 'triple counters' except 'hakugei'. Grace her 'Cyclone serve' and 'sakura shot'. Everyone was so excited that they wanted to try out tennis too. Grace had to go hide and use create to make more rackets using create. Grace had left after the second group had finished. By the end of the day, Syusuke and Choutarou were still in a tie.

At the lake, you could see the 3 girls skating very well. They were doing turns and piorets. Everyone was 'owing' and 'awing' at them. They were very graceful. Girls were amazed but guys were saying it was too sissy for them. Then the 3 girls skated towards the guys and at the same time sprayed them with ice. Ginny was laughing. Then they asked for volunteers but only girls wanted to try. Then a hand shot up. It was Neville. He tried skating but he eventually fell down. But then the girls held on to his hands and helped him to skate. When the guys saw this, they all quickly wanted to skate with the girls. They quickly dashed towards the skates. It was chaos but soon were getting very organised. Some guys actually pretended to fall down so that the girls would help them.

At the basketball courts, the girls were giving a demonstration on the different shots then they asked for volunteers. Some guys put up their hands and went one on one with the girls. The guys got cocky saying how if girls could play, they would probably be better. However, they were so wrong. They were totally thrashed by them. After that embarrassing scene, they had a few sets of games and showed them how to count the scores and what fouls are. In the end, all the girls were laughing at guys for being such cocky jerks as they had been totally creamed.

At the soccer field, there was a demonstration by the group. However, it was more like only Harry, Matt and Ron. Jake and David were trying to fight it out in the other field. As Grace was passing by Matt asked for a little help. Then Grace nodded and then she walked over to the fighting duo and gave them each an excruciating punch in the stomach. After that the 2 of them had to rest and sit out the demonstration. Harry and Matt showed the crowd how they could use their head, legs and chest only and only the goalkeeper could use their hands. They also taught them the rules of the game. Then they had a few games for people to try out. It seem Matt was much better than the rest of the guys surprisingly even though he had that geeky look.

At the archery field, Ying and Hope were in their human forms and all were dressed in yutakus. They were explaining what archery required and that it is a dangerous sport. Then they shot a few arrows each with a bull's eye. Their aims were fantastic. Then Ying was about to hit an arrow but when she saw Hope looking at her and he gave her a smile, she lost concentration and missed the target and it ended up hitting a few trees and nearly hitting the crowd. Guess where it ended up. Some how it managed to hit right smack in the middle of the target. However, when asked to try out the sport few were willing to as they were afraid to hurt themselves but then Kimiko assured them that it would be alright. Soon some plucked up their courage and gave it a shot. Most were misses but some managed to actually hit the board.

Lastly, at the martial arts area Professor Nicholas was waiting for his sister to arrive while he engaged the crowd in a talk on what martial arts was about and how it should be used. It should be used to protect not to fight. However, Professor Nicholas was shirtless and wearing only slacks so the female section of the crowd was more engrossed in looking at his body then listening to him. The area was filled with weapons of swords and spears. Love and Faith were in their true forms awaiting some instruction. Then Grace arrived just in time for the demonstration.

"Sorry I'm late. Had some trouble at the soccer field."

"Nevermind. Let's start."

"With weapons? Against guardians or each other?"

"Anything and each other. Haven't spared with you for a long time."

"Ok. We start without then later with."

Then their heated battle began. They each threw punches and kicks at each other hoping to beat the other. Then later began to use weapons. Grace had a sword while Nicholas had a spear. Nicholas seemed to have the upper hand and he had given her a wound on the arm. However all Grace could give his brother was a tiny cut on the stomach and it wasn't even deep. Then they Professor Nicholas explained the different types of martial arts and weapons while Grace faced the 2 guardians. She had sustained a burn on the arm while trying to dodge Faith's arrow. Then Nicholas joined in. He had gotten hurt from one off Faith's arrow while trying to protect his sister. By the end of the day, the 2 siblings had sustained quite a few wounds and were very tired that they could hardly move. They had to get Yuuta to heal them but even that was not enough. They had to stay overnight at in the ward under Madam Pomfrey's watchful eye.

At the end of the day, a lot of students had sign up for the sports and classes for it will start 2 weeks later. Not many people signed up for martial arts seeing how dangerous it was even though Professor Nicholas was teaching the class.

When they went back to the carriage, everyone decided to change into their robes seeing as they were about to reach Hogwarts in about an hour.

"How are we suppose to change?" asked Grace. "Is there a toilet here?" The trio shook their heads.

"Well we usually just change in the carriage" said Hermoine.

"Your're kidding right!" said all the transfer students except Kunimitsu keeping his calm exterior but in his mind he was shouting 'What the hell'. The transfer students could all heard his sudden outburst and they all jerked. The rest wondered what happened.

"Well no." said Harry.

"Hey wait I just found something." said Teri. She was pointing to a red button. On top of it was a label which wrote for changing purposes. "Should we try?" They all nodded.

Then as soon as she pressed the button, everything in the room vanished. They could feel that something big was gonna happen and held their breath. Then suddenly they could see some sort of swirling vortexes and something was emerging out of them. They could see something flashing and yellow and they were blinded by a light. When their sight was restored, everyone sweat dropped. There were two flashing neon lights in the shape of arrows. One pointed to the left and it said girls and one pointed to the right and said boys. So they went to the correct side of the carriage and uniforms appeared on the walls then a white wall emerged between the 2 groups and the locks on the doors clicked. on the wall there seem to be a screen and it said "Settings for changing is complete please begin" everyone fell back anime style.

Then Laura shouted "Is this some kind of game. Sheesh." Then everyone changed and there was a new button "Press when done." So both sides pressed it and the wall disappeared and everything else reappeared.

The sky had already turned dark when Grace remembered about her guardians. "Hope, Love come on out Ying & Yang too." Then everyone followed her lead and called on their sprites. The trio, Draco and Choutarou were shocked to see 4 soft toys and 13 faerie like things appearing and flying around. They freaked out and were up against the wall.

"Don't worry they won't hurt you. They are our guardians and our sprites. Just don't tell anyone about what you are seeing right now or we will have to kill you." said Grace with a sub-zero smile.

"Don't worry we won't." said Ron and the rest nodded.

"Ok very good so now Hope, Love, Ying and Yang please changed to your true forms." Then the guardian's wings enlarged and surrounded the soft toys and out emerged a man, a woman and 2 leopards. There were "wows" coming out of there mouths.

"Let me introduce them to you. This is....." So Grace introduced every single one of them. By the time she was done, they could see the station and Grace told Ying and Hope to change into their human forms and Love and Yang to their false forms. Hope was wearing black pants and shoes and a light blue shirt and Ying was wearing a pink shirt with a white plated skirt and sandy brown boots. Her hair had a small braid. Then the train came to a halt. It was rather abrupt so it ended with most of them falling down. Ying was caught by Hope and she blushed and thanked him and got up quickly. They picked themselves up and gathered their things and went out of their carriage. When they got out all eyes were on their group. Guys were drooling over the girls and girls over the guys. Hagrid was there holding a lantern and told the first years to follow him. The trio greeted Hagrid and he said hi back. Then he saw the transfer students and told them to follow him as well. So the trio and Draco and Chou parted with the transfer students.

As they reached the castle the trio, Draco and Chou all sat at their respectively tables. Then the first years entered the hall but Professor McGonagall had asked the transfer students to wait outside. Then the sorting for the 1st years began. The hall was filled with the sorting hats song and later with shouts of Gryffindor, Slytherin, Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff.

When it was done, the doors of the Great hall opened and revealed the transfer students. They walked in rows of two. Then Dumbledore said "We would like to welcome these transfer students and we will start the sorting for them." There was a round of applause for them. First was Grace and as she was walking towards the chair and someone caught her eye. There at the teachers table was a man with jet black hair and blue eyes, her brother. She ran towards and him and hugged him and there were even tears in her eyes. "I have missed you so much." said Grace and he replied "Me too". There were tons of girls shooting death glares at her as they were all jealous. Professor Nicholas was kinda cute and was well liked for his looks by the girls. "How come you are here?" Grace had a million questions to ask him. "We will talk later now get sorted first." said her brother. So she got off him and ran towards the chair saying "Talk to you later bro." They were shocked at what was just said. They were siblings! Grace just said down on the chair oblivious to everyone's new revelation.

The hat's mouth started to open. "Ah, the card mistress your power is bound with another. Very brave. I shall put you in GRYFFINDOR." Then next was Syusuke. "I sense a love for the card mistress and you wish to be with her." Syusuke blushed. "Fine, I shall put you in GRYFFINDOR." Then it continued.

Therefore,

Dumbledore started with his speech. "Welcome all to Hogwarts. We begin a new year with lots of interesting activities. We would be introducing a new subject called eastern magic which will be taught by Professor Nicholas. Also we have 3 new assistant this year and we would like to welcome them. They are Hope Moon who will be helping in DADA, Faith Moon who will be assisting in Eastern magic and Ying will be helping in Potions. Also we will be introducing some muggle sports such as tennis, basketball, archery and much more. There will be a demonstration with help from some of the students tomorrow and later you will be able to sign up afterwards. Lastly, there will be a ball a month from today. It was a roaring success the year of the Triwaizard tournament that we decided to try it again. However this year you will be wearing muggle clothes such as dresses and suit so please be prepared. If you do not have anyone clothing there is a trip set up to bring you to buy some. Oh yes a date is required. With that please enjoy your meal."

Everyone was talking about the things that were going to happen they were all excited. Then when the transfer students were heading back to their dorms, Dumbledore held them back and asked them "Would you be willing to help me for tomorrow's demonstration?" They all nodded. "Oh please ask Harry, Hermoine and Choutarou to help out as well and you may also ask more people to help but no more than 5 people please." They were about to leave when Nicholas called for Grace and they headed towards the lake to talk.
