Intoduction:
Before you read this and if you have not heard of Issiboo before it is Anjius home planet. Anjiu is a member of the Royal family and looks the most human out of her relatives. She is one third human, one third elf, and one third Issian. Issoboo is a lot like earth but there are some things that are different. There are seven moons, two suns; multi colored grass and the sky is navy blue. Each woman is allowed three husbands and each man is allowed three wives. But they must all be from different planets to keep up the verity of culture that Issiboo is known for. Each Issian can have the gentic make up of the all the fathers and the mother unlike humans and normal earth creatures. And a Issian pregnancy generally lasts seven to eleven months depending on how fast the child matures inside the womb. Twins and Triplets are not uncommon thanks to the mutable fathers as well. Most residents on the planed look like normal humans except the skin and hair on each person could be any variety of colors. Though thanks to the unique minerals of the planet, and genetics of the Issian blood line, the Issians can and most do have unique abilities. Another wonderful thing about Issiboo is if you can imagine it, it is most likely true here. For this story this all you need to know.
The Story:
It was a tepid morning within Tree-Hills, the most popular golf course on Issiboo. Anjiu was pacing the long hallway in her two bedroom apartment as she waited for her room mate Luna to finish preparing herself to leave. Anjiu however was ready to leave hours ago, or so it felt like it. She was unable to remember the details of anything at the moment. Though she had made sure to taken extra care in what she was to ware.
Anjiu had thoughtfully chosen a cute white sundress, with pastel flowers and green leaves gracing front and back in a floral pattern. Among that she chose her favored white short healed sandals, her white golf gloves, they in which protected the palms of her hands but let her fingers and thumb breath. She had chosen to accent the attire with her white pearl necklace and matching earrings. Her dishwater blonde hair was neatly pulled back in a pony tail and tied with a pretty white butterfly bow. She was so nerves today would be the first real test of the skills she had been leaning the past several weeks from her personal trainer Fred.
Darn it Luna, when are we going to leave! She yelled in anger but quickly apologized. Today would be Lunas first real test of skills too. Anjiu was a bit jealous of her friend; Luna was a natural at the game and had stared her skill training months before. She however trained with Mina. It was thanks to Mina that Luna and Anjiu had ever found interest in the sport of golf.
It was a cool spring morning; Luna was in a good mood and was visiting her friend Jae when Jaes friend Mina arrived at Jaes to visit too. Mina is a very observant persona and she quickly noticed a set of golf clubs Jae had in the back corner of her living room and became overjoyed. It was chance that Jae had just received the set of golf clubs for her birthday from her father, and chance that Mina was a local Golf instructor. Mina had in a matter of days talked Luna and Jae into taking a privet class from her and leaning the game. Jae unfortunately did not find much interest in the game and as a result quit the lesions after three months. She in that case gave Luna her used but still nice golf clubs.
Luna was a bit sad at that and lonely with out Jae around and thus asked Anjiu if she would join her in a few practice matches. Anjiu agreed and found that she had greatly enjoyed the game and then asked her friend Fred to instruct her. That way she would not slow down Lunas lesions with Mina and could lean I her own pace. Today proved that she had made a good decision. After another five months of training for Luna and two and a half months of training for Anjiu they were ready for their first big tournament. Luna was ready after the first two months but she was to nerves to compete so she waited till Anjiu was also ready so that they could do it together.
Ok, Im ready! Luna announced brining Anjiu back from her thoughts.
Luna had chosen a purple knee length Chinese style dress with blue lilies sewn in, to form a pretty pattern. She had matching purple gloves with a baby blue lily sewn on the palm and top of the hand. The glove was cut to let her fingers breath like Anjius but the cut was higher up so it covers half of the fingers. For foot ware she chose purple short heals, and for accents she wore a set of topaz earrings and a topaz pendant. Her long blackish brown hair was pulled in to upward pig tails on each side of her head tied by small purple butterfly bows.
Finally! I was about to start panicking. We should leave now or we will be late Anjiu replied.
I know, I know, I have my keys lets go. Luna replied and walked out to her hover craft. Anjiu quickly followed making sure to lock the door and climbed into the passenger seat next to Luna. Anjiu didnt mind driving but she let Luna drive because it tends to relax her a bit.

When the girls arrived at Tree-Hill there was already a huge crowd of people. Some of which Luna and Anjiu recognized such as: Shampoo, Miki, Miroku, Keanu, Drew, Sandra, JB, Elvis, Johnny, Will, Orlando, Wooster, Jae, Andy, Jackie, and many more. This added to the pressure that the girls were already feeling inside. The both smiled and waved to their friends ads they made their way to the courts where their caddies were waiting.
Lunas caddie was named Neko and as the name she was a cute large black cat, wore a purple color with a baby blue bell. The cat was named Mysty and had telepathic abilities which allowed it to carry her bag, fetch her ball, and giver her tips on the course. Like most of the TrangPa caddies and like Anjius caddie. Her caddy was an oversized brown teddy bear that walked upright like a grizzly bear. He was sporting a white tee, white shorts, and white sneakers. With the same pastel colors Anjiu had on her dress but his were splashed about all over his artier. His name being Jonathan he was also a close friend of Anjius, then had been together since her birth just about inseparable too. He was strong enough to carry the clubs but like Mysty they followed him thanks to his powers.
The golf course was mostly all artificially enhanced, the water, the scenery, the hills all computer programmed in a large dome arena. Whit that system there were so many golf courses, rounds, levels, and so many other sports that could be played inside. This made the games more challenging for all the contestants. To add to the excitement and suspense each player has no more then four hours to complete the eight-teen whole course and no less then two hours so as to show that they are not cheating. When every one and their caddies were ready the game began. There were a total of forty some people on the eight-teen hole course but only eleven people were in their level that they needed to worry about beating to the finish line.

The first hole was a straight shot down the field and it looked pretty easy. The wind was five miles to the left and Luna went first. She slowly examined the course and the wind, and then adjusted her pose to the right by three inches. Neko gave her a w1 club and she then swung her arms back and hit the ball with all her might, but no TrangPa and she did not get any special awards for this shot but it was a good shot. The ball shot into the air and it flew strait to the middle of the course lucky in the green.
Anjiu was next her hands were sweating she didnt want to let any one down. She looked over the course and like Luna adjusted her angle but by four inches to the right. Jonathan handed her a w1 wage and backed up nodding in approval. She nodded back, took a deep breath closed her eyes and then swung her club. TrangPa her caddie shouted. It was a perfect hit but her ball hit the course at an angle and rolled into the rough just above Lunas ball so she also did not get rewarded. At least it was a good shot.
