Hey every one! This is the very first chapter of my "StOrY" here you will meet my character, Gemini. Ya know what makes tick, and why she's special. Oh yes, on a lighter note, no offence to any cheerleaders out there. (I was one my self) if you don't understand this... you will soon. Oh no I'm babbling again, ok here it goes...

La Stella da Cielo

"Why do we have to move! We have all we could ever want right here," Gemini Cielo said to no one in particular. "I'll be leaving my friends, my family, my home!" She sighed and sat down on a box. She wondered if her family is feeling the same way, why it was only a month since her father got promoted and transfer to the observatory in England. She stood up and proceeded to her closest to pack up any remaining items she over looked. She opened the door, but stopped to look at the girls in the mirror. She had her mothers dark brown mid-length hair, her fathers soft honey brown eyes, and her own athletic build. Her sister Pisces always told her that her eyes were to big, her hair was to dark, and her muscles made her look boyish.

"Well that's just to bad" Gemini said to herself" if Pisces thinks that I look odd, then I'm glad, I'd rather be odd than agree with her" then an amusing though brought a smile across her face " At least I don't look like her! Little beady mud brown eyes, Stick straight dirty blonde hair, and her pointed nose, She looks like a mouse!" she though to her self, laughing silently " at least I'm not a cheerleader!" she shivered at the thought " imagine pom poms replacing my boxing gloves… boxing gloves… BOXING GLOVES! Oh my gosh, Tony!" she said as she dropped the clothes in her hands.

She tore down the stairs at break neck speed, racing in to the kitchen she tripped over herself while trying to tie she shoes laces and run at the same time.

" Mama! Papa!" she yelled from the floor

"Gemini! Where are you! Are you ok! Are you hurt!" Stella yelled as she ran in to the kitchen from the study.

"Mama? I'm on the floor, I'm fine, but I'm not hurt" she said tying her other shoe.

"Oh Mio Dio! You almost gave me a heart attack! So why were you screaming from down there on the floor" Stella asked with her hands on her hips

"I have to go to see Tony!" Gemini said getting up from her spot on the floor.

"Oh I see, well how about this" Virgo said as he walked in to the kitchen, " we'll drop you off before we pick up Pisces from her party, ok?"

"Si papa" Gemini said looking quite relieved that she wouldn't have to see her sister and her air head friends at her going away party. She bragged about it for weeks. 'Gemini, I'm having a party with all of my friends!' or ' Gemini why aren't your friends throwing you a party, oh I forgot, you don't have any!' Well that was true, she didn't have many friends, for people were afraid she would knock them out if they said something wrong, or they though she was just plain weird.

"I'll be in the car," Gemini said, fighting back tears

"Gemini! My own little star from heaven! What are you doing here? You are supposed to be spending you last day with your friends!" Tony Balboa, a boxing coach and the owner of Tony's gym said when Gemini entered the oh-so-familiar doors.

Gemini simply replied "I am"

Tony was like a second father to her. She could still remember the first time she came in to these doors. She turned 5 and her father thought it was time for her to start a hobby. Her mother wanted her to be a cheerleader like her sister was. She immediately shook off that idea when her father mentioned boxing lessons. After much persuading her mother finally signed her up and she's been there ever since.

"Well why don't we have just one last go 'eh? You know where your gloves are." He said winking " let me lace up and well be at it!"

So Tony and Gemini had their last match, and this one would be not forgotten.

Before she left she gave Tony a big hug.

"I'll miss you Tony, you were more than a teacher to me" she said as silent tears rolled down her eyes. She has learned how to keep her tears not heard and of course never seen. She would not let any one see her cry.

"Gemini, remember who you are. You are Gemini Cielo, the star from heaven." He said looking in to her eyes "promise me that when you fight, fight with your heart, other wise you've already lost. And always remember this, for this is the best advice I can give you. You can only face your challenger when you can look them straight in the eye with out fear, then only then are you worthy to them as an opponent." He said to her as he gave her one last hug good bye.

Her family came to pick her up and bring her to the hotel where they would be staying that night. Gemini spent the rest of her day thinking about what Tony had told her.

"Gemini dear, are you ok?" Virgo asked, concerned about his youngest daughter

"Si papa, I was just thinking" She replied smiling up at her father.

"Just checking, oh and me and your mother are going down to the restaurant for dinner, you and Pisces may get room service if you would like" He said getting ready.

"That would be nice" she replied still wonder what Tony had told her that day.

"Good night girls" Stella said as she walked out the door

"Good night mama, good night papa" Gemini and Pisces said in unison

When Virgo and Stella left Gemini sat on her bed and looked at the room service menu, Pisces however stay near the door and waited

"Good, their gone, I thought they'd never leave" Pisces said turning toward Gemini, grinning like a maniac. " Now, lets see what Tony has taught you."

Before Gemini could realize what was happening Pisces smacked Gemini across the face, hard. Stunned, Gemini just stood there not being able to believe what was happening. When she didn't react, Pisces jumped on her, knocking her back on her bed, doing what any other girl who got in to a fight would do, scratching and pulling hair

"Come on freak! Get up!" she hissed, smacking Gemini again

Gemini just lye there, scared, not knowing what to do, and not wanting to hurt her sister

"Just wait 'till Tony find out that his 'star' isn't even a challenge for a cheerleader" she laughed cruelly "just looked what kind of boxer you turned out to be, more like a loser!"

Pisces was so concerned on how good she was doing; she failed to notice the small heap on the bed was stirring. Slowly Gemini sat up and rolled off the bed, she stood up shaking, from fear and rage. What was she doing to do? Then it hit her.

'What did Tony tell me?' she thought 'You can only face your challenger when you can look them straight in the eye with out fear, then only then are you worthy to them as an opponent.'

This was all the motivation she needed; she walked stair up to her sister, and firmly stood her ground

"Oh, back for more are you?" Pisces snapped "or do you think you might be a match for me? Well you can keep dreaming kid, because you will never be as pretty, as smart, or as strong as I am. You are nothing but a weak, pitiful, worthless mess."

"Sorry to disappoint you sister dear, but I am and always will be 20 times better than you."

"Who do you think you are!" Pisces shrieked as she raised a hand to her little sister

Gemini saw this coming. She thought quickly of a way to stop this. She didn't want to hurt her sister. But her instincts took over and she executed a quick, swift uppercut to her stomach. The next few events went in slow motion. Gemini saw her fist make contact to Pisces stomach, she saw her soar though the air, she saw her land on the other bed with a thud, moaning, before passing out.

Gemini just looked at her hand, at her sister, and back at her and again.

' I couldn't have done that… I'm just not strong enough' she though shacking her head in disbelief'

Realizing the severity of the situation she ran and got a blanket to cover up Pisces, to make it look like she's fallen asleep. She then ran in to the bathroom, she knew her sister wasn't going to be happy with her when she came to. She locked the door and took a set next to the shower, trying to think of what she was going to tell her parents when they returned from dinner that night.
