Chapter 1: The first meet
"Alright Rei see you tomorrow!!" one of Rei's school friends hollered from the schools front doors.
" OK Bye!!!!" Rei yelled back waving to one of her many school friends. Rei let out a sigh of relif knowing that her peaceful walk home would be the only break from work for the long day ahead of her. It was a Friday and Lita, Ami, Mina, Serena, and Rini were all going to the fun fall fair!! Of course Rei was happy that after her chores she would be heading to the fair with her friends, but their are times when you want to be alone. In this case this was Rei's only alone time.
"huh?" Rei asked herself as she turned around looking back from were she had just steped. "Thats weird I was sure I heard someone behind me." Rei continued to walk down the path leading her back home. Just a few minutes after she had started walking again she heard the sound of soft footsteps following her. Rei stopped and so did the footsteps. She kept walking and quickly turned around when the footsteps could be heard again.
"AH-HA NOW I'VE GOT!!!.......you?" Rei yelled turning around to find a little girl standing behind her. She had light purple hair that was pulled up in a ponytail her eyes the same color but just a tiny bit darker. The little girl let out a high pitched ep! backing away a couple steps. Her face full of fear. She put one of her thumbs into her mouth still backing away 2 or 3 steps before coming to a stop.
Rei sighed knowing that she was safe from any enemy coming by. She put her schoolbag down on the ground next to her. "I'm sorry, you just starteled me." Rei said kneeling down in a sweet voice. The girl didn't move or say anything, she just stood their sucking the tip of her thumb with that same facel expression of fear. Rei calmly stood up and walked toward the young girl. Rei got close enough to were she could pat her head.........but the little girl flinched steeping back into a pole. Thumb still in her mouth she glanced up at Rei with the cutest puppy-dog eyes ever.
" I'm real sorry sweety, I didn't mean to scare you." Rei said to her holding out her hand. The small girl looked at Rei's hand and looked away trying to figure out what she should do.
" It's alright you can trust me. I promise I won't hurt you." Rei tolled her with a smile.
The little girls eyes brightend in an instant. She run as fast as she could running into Rei. The little girl streached her arms around Rei far as her short arms could go giving Rei a great big hug!! Her tiny hands held a strong grip on Rei's school uniform. She dug her head into Rei's cheast. She whispered something to herself but Rei couldn't make out what it was.
" Oooooooohhh!" Rei gasped as she felt the little girl relax herself into Rei's body, letting out a deep, smooth, and calm sigh the young girl closed her eyes.
Rei slowly removed the child from her a couple minutes later, making sure she didn't start to cry when she pulled her away. The small girl stood strait in front of Rei looking right at her smiling.
" Alright kiddo, Wheres your Mommy and Daddy?" Rei asked with her sweet voice.
" ....Mommy!!...." The little girl repeated pointing at Rei.
Rei giggled. " OK then, Are you lost?"
No answer.
" Alright you little cutie!! How about I go drop you off at the police staition so you can hopefully find your real Mommy and Daddy? And i'll buy you a lollipop on the way. How does that sound to you?" Rei asked her. The girl smiled brightly giving Rei a thumbs up on the idea.
Rei let out a short laugh. " Ookie Dookie!! Lets go!!!" Rei yelled picking up her schoolbag while reaching to hold the little girls hand.
"....Ookie Dookie!...." She repeated cheerfully.
Rei laughed the whole way down to the police staition listening to the small girl cheering "Ookie Dookie!". They walked into the police staition and Rei set the girl on one of the chairs in the waiting area. She kneelt down face to face with her and said " Will you be a good girl and stay right here, Missy?" The small young girl nodded her head.
" Great, Then you can have this now." Rei said pulling a blue lolliepop out from her schoolbag. She quietly walked away to the front desk very quickly while the child was still engaged to the lollipop.
" Excuse me sir?" Rei asked the man at the front desk.
" Yes how can I help you?"
" I found a little girl following me home from school and I was just wondering if you would keep her here untill you find her parents?"
" Thats fine. Is the child here already?"
" Yes, Shes sitting in the waiting area."
" Alright I'll take care of her from here but before you leave I need you to fill out these forms and then your free to go."
" OK. Thank you sir." She said grabing a pen starting to fill out the forms.
When Rei was finnished she sneeked past the little girl quietly so she wouldn't start crying if she saw her leaving. Once far enough away from the police staition Rei continued on the walk back home.
