pretty soldier sailormoon: sailor stars. starseed of a leader; desirable love. tsuki hikari wa ai no message. shiruba_yatchan@hotmail.com ---------------------------------- Seiya woke up to the yelling and screaming of his older brother. He twitched, turning over while putting his pillow over his head. He could still here the muffled profanity of the shorter silver tailed idol. What could he do about it? This was an everyday thing. Whether on Kinmokusei or here on earth. Yaten had stated a billion times that he wanted out, but the thought of leaving without the princess just hurt. So the yelling would die down once that realization was hit. Another reason would be the entire gender thing. Taiki always kept quiet about it, Yaten would always throw a fit . . But what did he have to say about it? He never really thought much of his gender. His personality was the same, and that's all that mattered to him. He was a tomboy anyway, so the conversion to the male gender for the earth civilian look until they found their princess didn't seem so bad. Music sales and rates sky rocketed, giving them enough money to have dinner on the table each night. He always wondered why Yaten was never thankful for any of this. He knew he was. Then again . . He met her. he met Usagi and everything changed. 'You're confusing the image of our princess with that of Sailormoon! Seiya . . Seiya are you even listening to me?!' Mumbling, Seiya threw the pillow off of of his head. Sitting up slowly with his eyes still closed, the ivory hair tie having falling off during the night, leaving raven colored tresses over his shoulder and back. Standing up, stumbling to the bathroom almost like a zombie, passing Yaten who had just gotten out of there. "Good morning to you too . ." he said with a raised eyebrow. He watched his younger brother practically slam into the door. Yaten almost regretted pushing the door open for him. Yaten started to walk down the hall when he heard a crash. Taiki, apparently, had heard it too. "I bet you he tripped over a bar of soap . ." mumbled Yaten. "Was he really that 'dead' when he woke up?" questioned Taiki. Yaten shrugged, banging on the door. Just to receive no reply. Limegreen eyes looked to pale violet ones just before he knocked again. And still, no reply. Taiki looked a bit worried as he turned the bronze doorknob to let the door slide open. The two took back everything they said when they saw their brother unconscious, half in the bathtub, half not, with the water running and his pajamas still on. *** "The hell . . ?" Seiya woke up almost half an hour later, to see a pair of blinking eyes that were a nice shade of green staring at him. Looking towards the left was another pair, this time a rare shade of violet. "Good morning sunshine." said Yaten, half sarcastically, half serious. "Yaten." started Taiki, eyeing him. "Are you okay, Seiya?" "Besides the fact I want to shove Yaten's head into the toilet . . And the fact I feel like I've just been run over by a pickup truck . . Fine." Yaten mumbled. He would have hit him if he didn't realize how pale in the face Seiya was. "Ano . ." A digit was extended, poking Seiya's cheek. "Do you have any idea how pale you are . . ?" "P-pale . . ?" Even Taiki nodded. "I think it'd be better if we stayed home from school today . . If you were alone when you collapsed the first time, with the water running? I'm sure you would have drowned . ." "D-drowned?!" "Heh, now you're scaring the boy, Taiki." "Oii . . This isn't funny, YATEN . ." "Sure it is." Seiya tried getting up, to smack him right across the face, but found he couldn't. Collapsing back on the pillows his older brothers put on the couch for him. "Bakayaro! Stay down! There is obviously something wrong with you, and we're going to find out what . . I already asked for an appointment at the doctor's . . . Since Yaten is too bitchy and lazy to get up off of his sorry ass and extend his arm to grab the phone off the wall . ." "Whaaaaat?! You're making *me* seem like the lazy one . ." There was a long period of silence . . Until Yaten went off muttering profanity under his breath. ". . . You have to get better so we can continue what we're here for . ." The other two nodded solemly. ". .r-right." said Seiya, almost in a whisper. *** Taiki and Yaten sat in the waiting room; Taiki reading a medical magazine, Yaten half asleep. "Ano . . Kou-san? Taiki soshite Yaten Kou-san . . ?" asked the receptionist. "The way you say their names, you're making them sound like they're marr---" "SEIYA." screamed Yaten, having woken up due to his brother's remark. Taiki was red, muttering profanity himself while putting the magazine back down, hard. The two walked into the doctor's office, about to knock Seiya senseless. he seemed perfectly fine to them. Seiya, sensing their anger, sat down while clearing his throat. "Sick, pale, choking or not . . Once we get home . ." muttered Yaten, obviously incredibly pissed. "Apparently . . Seiya-san has a case of stress, most likely from overworking; and yet also early symptoms of the flu . ." The three listened carefully, Seiya groaning as the doctor spoke. "You should relax more often . . And stay in bed for the next week. No school, no concerts, no nothing. You understand?" Seiya nodded, folding his arms. He hated being treated like such a child . .but the fact of not going to school for an entire week made him feel much better about the entire situation. He ran a hand through raven colored bangs, and listened to further instructions. Rather . . Taiki was the one listening to the other things the doctor said. Seiya was too busy being in the middle of a staring contest with Yaten. "Seiya-san? Are you listening to me?" "Go ahead Seiya . . Turn and look at her. Just give up and let me when this already." whispered Yaten, a grin on his lips. "Ohhhhh no you don't . ." replied Seiya. "Hai, I'm listening." "Listening but not looking . ." "Why don't you shut up before I tell Minako you want to go on a nice *dinner date* with her . ." Yaten blinked, shutting up as told. Then hung his head in defeat, having lost the contest. "You know . . Sometimes . . I really want to strangle you . ." Seiya started to laugh as the three got up and exited the room. "Awh come on, shorty. Ya know you love me." "Love you enough to kill you slowly . . So you feel every second, every instant of sheer pain . ." muttered Yaten. This whole thing made even Taiki start to laugh. In fact, it ended up that the three of them did so. Did so until Seiya passed out again on the way to the van. ---------------------
