Chapter 2 - Star light, Star bright
"I do not have crazy dreams, just you watch i will achive ALL my dreams." misaki Nakayama
miski sat down quietly into her usual seat at a corner table over looking a large window, she sat with no one because she had no one to sit with, as she had never felt drawn towards making relationships with people. she opened her lunch pale green lunch bag , she then glanced quickly around the large room making sure no one was watching her, before removing the containts of her lunch bag, a sardine and cheese sandwich, her favourote food of all time, she smiled breathing in the scent of food.Just as she went to take a bite she felt a light tap on her shoulder, she turned around ready to fire of a string of insults at whever had dared to disturb her from her lunch, It was luna, 'can I talk to you?' she asked in a low voice similar to that of wind blowing gentely through a forest,'you already are,' snapped misaki eyeing her sndwich longingly,'what do you want?' she dded seeing the look of pure terror on luna's face, normaly Luna avoided people at all costs and never spoke to anyone ,misaki noticed this and was interested to know what had finaly forced Luna to not only sit with someone but also to talk, 'something bad is going to happen' Luna said softly,'something realy bad,' she added in a barely audible whisper but the message shocked misaki as if Luna has shouted it as loud as posible,she dropped her long forgotten sardine and cheese sandwich, her tembling hands no longer seemed to respond to her as her mind began to cunjure up horrific images of what may happen or already have occured, she suddenly felt overwelmed by fear and terror washed over her like a tsunami leaving nothing but fearful thoughts, she felt more terrorfide at that very moment than she had ever done in her entire life put together as she began to feel herself losing herself into a void of darkness, the bell rang signaling the start of class, misaki walked slowly towards her classroom, she checked her phone once more befre flipping it shut and stuffing it into her school bag,' there was nothing to be worried or scared about,' she told herself firmly,' Luna's gone round the bend, commpletly mad from lack of human interaction, she probably made it up to have an excuse to sit with me' she added trying to convince herself that this was true. she pushed the classroom door open quickly and strood inside perposefuly. she sat down into her took out her notebook , she glanced up at the equation the teacher had wrote before copying it down as she did so the loud speaker crackled into life, the headmaster gave an announcement calling for misaki to report to his office imeddiatly. misaki paniced ,'what if Luna was right?' she muttered under her breath as she packed up her notebooks and walked quickly out of the room, she ran up the stairs two at a time until she reached the headmasters office on the top floor, when she reached for the handle ,she paused, she could hear voices coming from inside, she sighed and knocked the door twice before carefully pushing it open. Inside the room her headmaster, a short man with greying hair, was talking to a lady with silver hair, who looked around twenty. misaki didn't recgnise the woman,' what was going on ?'she asked herself mentaly. the headmaster noticed her standing beside the door and stopped talking, both he and the woman turned to stair at her. The headmaster ran his fingers through his thinning hair,' misaki, please sit down,' he said gesturing at the chair, ' i'm afraid i havee some bad news,' he added in a softer tone...

Shooting Stars - chapter 1 -
Chapter 1- a star is born...
"the world is not filled with good people and bad people, but people with and without dreams" Sakura
her alarm clock began to ring as dawn broke bringing with it a brand new day, 'morning already?' asked Sakura quizzically, 'you bet your sweet honey it is ' said her hyper room mate, she was a tall girl with shimmering green eyes and a sparkling smile to match, ' how are you so hyper this early ?' asked Sakura wiping the sleep from her pale blue eyes and yawning showing two rows of gleaming sharp teeth, her stomach growled she could smell pancakes frying in the kitchen, she glanced over at her clock It was only 6:41am, 'i've been up since 4am , of coarse hunn' replied Nate giving her a large smile,'food will be ready in ten minutes, sugar plum' she added before disappearing back into the dark kitchen.
Sakura shut her eyes once again briefly ' time for work' she said with a sigh, she throught back the covers and jumped down out of her bunk landing unnaturally quietly in a cat like stance, she padded softly int the dining room to eat her breakfast as she did she glanced into the spare room where her room mate spent most of her time, it was empty except for a single canvise board, she looked away that was Nates private stuff, off limits, a no go zone, she wasn't in the mood for Nate getting over emotional about the contins of the room. Sakura sat down at the small table in the dinning room, as she ate she began to wonder what her new assignment was and what they were like, she shuddered as she began to remember her last assignment, no, this was not the time for an emotional melt down. she sunk her teeth into the warm mist flesh of her latest victum ,a pancake, pausing only to wipe mapel syrup of her chin, she smiled,' thank you for the meal' she said tO Nate, Nat smiled showing all 2OO of her sharp teeth, Sakura placed her plate into the dishwasher before walking back to her room. She pulled her wardrobe door open carefuly ,so as not to send anything falling, she quickly choose a dark navy suit with a black tie, ' perfect 'she said getting dressed, she walked quickly to her bunk and lifted a silk wrapped box out from under her matteress. she swiftly opened the box carefully removing the containts, her baby. it was a hand made katana which had been passed down through her family from person to person for nine generations,now it was hers, she strapped it on tightly over her left shoulder, she then slipped on her knee lenght black coat, ' NOW, I'm ready for work' she said to herself as she headed towards the front door, as she passed the kitchen Nate gave her a double thumbs up as a sign of encoragement.
Sakura picked up her car keys and walked out the front door as she walked she breathed deeply taking in all the scents of the city, from the fresh bread in the bakeorys to the cut grass in the park she smelt it all, she clambered into the driver seat pushing fast food cartains aside,' that is the last time i lent Nate my car,'she said discusted by her room mates eating habbits, again she didnt have time to dwell, she couldn't be late today as she as getting asigned to a new human today,' heres hoping there is no traffic' she said backing out Onto the street, the drive took less than ten minuites, Sakura took a deep breath as she pushed the doors tO the office open quickly before running down stairs to her boss's office.
when she emerged from the office an hour later she felt completly drained and depressed, she had not yet opened the file containing her new assigned human, all she knew was that she was a class 'A' assignment,
'why me? why? why? What did i do to deserve this' she screemed pointing at the file as if it were a bomb about to explode, her collegeues didn't ever turn around at this outburst, as word had already spread that Sakura had recieved a class 'A' assignment, her reaction was completely normal, after all a class 'A' assignment was just a death sentence with a pretty bow attached on top, NO ONE had ever had a class 'A' assignment and survived...
