Chapter 5: Virgo.

Jamnia's Point of view.
I couldn't believe what I'm doing right now but I have no choice. Standing as I watch my own reflection in the mirror inside my room, I tried to cheer myself up. I'm wearing my school uniform which kinda suites me, the color and design is top class. It reassembles the the stars in the night sky, it's amazing to wear fancy clothes like this.
I breathe in and out as I gave myself a last glance, with all things ready I headed out. I stopped holding the doornob, I'm still bothered of the things that might happen.
"You can do this Jamnia, you can find a way outta here and go back to your loves ones. Act normal like your just going to school, just be a good girl and watch your surroundings. You can do this!"
Good thing I have the habit of talking to myself and not making myself crazy.
I gave out my best smile and walked the hallway normally strolling along with the horde of students. I needed to find my room so I asked random students to help me. I arrived at my room and entered silently, it's a typical classroom with noisy students in a classy way. I sat at the back in a vacant seat, I scanned the place and it looks like all were waiting for is our teacher. Not long our teacher arrived, she then called me to introduce myself. I felt very nervous but I looked at them eye to eye with confidence.
"Hi, I'm Jamnia Marie Tualla. Nice meeting you all, I hope to be friends with everyone here."
I heard some hiss and negative words but I didn't bother to care, after that our teacher started the discussion. Without the energy to listen, I looked outside. She's teaching something about the zodiac sign Virgo, I'm not really a fan of stars. Time went by my first class ended, I hurried to find my next subject. I was about to ask my classmates the directions but no one actually wants to engage some conversation with me, so be it.
"Jamnia." A certain voice called for me to look back, a short haired cute girl with her innocent eyes smiled at me. She's white as a vampire with her bloodlike red chubby cheeks.
"Don't be discouraged by our classmates, if you're not in the wealthy family giving you a glance would be impossible." She opened up and walked along me. "Call me, Jy or by full name Jyshyr Anne Azares."
"That's fine Jyshyr, I'm Jamnia Marie Tualla by the way."
"Where did your family originate? It's my first time hearing a last name with yours, Tualla it's quite unique."
Awkwardness filled the air, I don't know what respond. I literally can't say that I got my last name from Earth, I'll complicate things. I decided to ignored the fact she tried to befriend me, it's best to be alone. With the pursue to avoid conversation I started to change direction and walked faster knowing I'd be lost later on.
"What's your next subject, we might have the same schedule?" She asked, panting as she ran towards me.
"Celestial Building, Zodiante 85."
"What? Celestial Building? Zodiante?" She asked in shock, her voice sounded different from her friendly tone earlier. "Are you a Zodiante?"
"I think so?"
"Really? C-can I see your schedule?" I could see her trembling as she reached for the paper that I'm holding.
After reading shock was all over her face and she suddenly bowed at me. I was embarrassed by her actions, it caught some of the students attention some even stop just to watch the commotion.
"W-what are you doing?"
"I'm sorry for my ignorance Zodiante J-jamnia, I didn't mean to be rude. Punish me as much as you want."
"The hell?" I asked in confusion, the staring students increased then it hit me. "Stand straight, you did nothing nothing. Treat me as your friend, okay?"
"Friend?" She asked in disbelief, I nodded.
She made an effort to talk to me and she seems lonely, having her a friend wouldn't be a hindrance.
"Don't overthink things, help me look for my room."
"O-okay."
Luckily Jyshr knew the whole massive campus with the back of her hand and brought me to my room. My school on earth was big but this is much bigger! The celestial building was secluded from the crowded place and much more effort was made to make the building possible. As we went inside silence was the only thing we heard, no students passing by. I felt Jyshyr's anxiousness as she stood in front of my classroom.
"Thank you, let's hangout sometime."
"O-okay." She replied while secretly peeping, she seems to be looking for someone.
"Is your crush inside?" I asked to tease her, she was red as tomato.
"No! I'll be going." She replied and ran like a madwoman.
I calmed myself before entering the room, I saw twelve seats and noticed that this room is much bigger than regular. Elegance was all over the place, constellations and stars was the theme of the room. I immediately went to the vacant chair, like earlier it was at the back of the room. I saw familiar faces, Clim caught my attention for he is my seatmate. He didn't even gave me a glance and sat there like a trained dog so I did the same.
As girl in her twenties went inside our room, everyone in the room then sat properly. Standing in front of all of us her beauty was seen, her bitchy look was the first thing I noticed.
"Sit straight everyone, if you ain't straight then deal with it!" She shouted, the room remained silent. "Since Zodiante Virgo is found we will be properly starting our class. Introduce yourself."
Everyone's attention was on me, I stood up nervously, "Jamnia Marie Tualla." Those words were the only thing I could utter, she's too strict. I eventually sat, she raised her eyebrows at me.
"Well, I'm Miss. Catherine Bensurto and I'll be training you all to become worthy of being called Zodiante. Calling me Ma'am would be the last thing you'd ever do, Miss would be appropriate." Her fierce eyes roamed the place before smiling. "It's been months since everyone here has gathered but we still haven't formally introduced ourselves, you may start Zodiante Aquarius."
"Lincoln Gray Laurio, in supervision of Lady Aquarius! But it's best if I'd be in your supervision girls!" He smiled in a jerky way, his blue hair makes him more of a wannabe playboy.
"It's my turn? Give way in honor of your Queen, Gizelle Sophia Vargas the most beautiful, sexy and worthy bearer of Pisces!" The girl with a gray curly hair said.
"Myles Monacillo, Aries." She said in a bored tone, she has that manly tone and her hair is quite short.
"Hey it's me, myself and I the one and only bearer of Taurus, Aliah Nishen Deliarte!" I covered my ear as she screamed, her yellow hair added in her jolliness.
"H-hi, I'm Krezza Eldia Cortes, Gemini-i." In just a second her facial expression changed like she's another person. "Can we be friends? HIHIHIHIHI." She sounded like a psycho, can't believe she was the same person who watched over me at the clinic.
"Alora Jane Verano, happy to be in the guidance of Zodiac Cancer! Hoping to be in good terms with you all!" A girl with a scarlet eyes smiled, she looked sweeter than any of my exes.
"Austin James Bilarmino, shall be a great leader to you all! With the help of Leo, we, shall be able to get rid of darkness!" He was the same guy with the golden hair, his smile is charming as always.
"Chyrinaica Roje Luther, Libra! Skincare is needed for supremacy over pimples and worst of all acne scars!" She said like a beauty guru, she's sucks at words.
"Clim David Barrus, Scorpio. Dispises those who seek for attention." He said as he scanned the place, throwing some shade.
"Jared Vince Martin, the almighty and strongest of all! Does anyone dare challenge my authority?" I covered my ears again, his anguish eyes wants some intense action. Galit na galit, usto manakit!
"Jasper Moran, Capricorn. Forever going with the flow but you'll are friction!" He had those typical bangs along with braces that made him look shy.
Is he a f*cking Swiftie?!
I really hope this set of diverse people will help me get through all this struggles I've had. Even with different believes and personality I see colors of joy around the place. Nothing bets sadness other than great sets of friends!
"And you Jamnia Marie Tualla, the bearer of Virgo shall complete section Zodiante! The hope of Vastra to conquer and live peacefully are in your hands. I shall expect great things from you all, be prepared for a more intense training tommorow."
I heard some sighs as Miss Catherine announced those. I smiled, what bittersweet adventures awaits me?
