It was not necessarily unusual to see Haruka sitting at the corner café. It was after all where she and Michiru enjoyed many afternoons that were peaceful. To them it just seemed as a relaxing spot with the vast green space across the street and the view of the massive fountains. What was unusual was that this afternoon, Haruka was there alone.

The shorthaired blonde stirred her ice cubes in her green tea. There had not been a whole lot for the senshi to have to deal with lately. It was quite odd. Since the day that Chenoa and Minako both disappeared things were unusually quiet. Setsuna had returned to the gates of time and Michiru picked up a teaching job at the art school so it left Haruka pretty much alone.

As Haruka was sitting there still stirring her ice cubes in her now watered down tea, she noticed out of the corner of her eye a familiar man walked in.

"Do you mind if I join you?"

"Go right on ahead, not like I'm expecting anybody." Haruka answered to him as he gracefully took his seat across from her.

"You know, you should tell Michiru that you would like to spend more time with her. Especially if you are this depressed about it. The waitress said you have been here for over an hour and all you ordered was one tea. No refills even."

Haruka looked up at him, "Lord Kodia, please don't give me your advice. I know you probably mean well, but frankly you don't know spit."

Kodia was slightly surprised. He knew that Michiru was not really the one she was missing. He had quite a hunch that she was missing her fights with Chenoa. "Then Haruka, tell me what is bothering you?"

Haruka looked at him, she knew that he could easily read her mind and probably already knew what was bothering her. She smiled slyly, "I miss her."

"Who? Who is it that you miss?" Kodia nodded to her.

"I miss Chenoa not being around so I can kick her asrse." Haruka picked up her glass and finished off the tea. "Things are too dull around here. There are no youma and no uprisings. I miss having Chenoa around. If she was here at least then I would have somebody to fight with."

Kodia nodded, "I see. I believe you are used to being able to vent your anger towards her and keep the rest of your emotions in balance. So with her not here, you have no release for your anger. Especially since it appears the youma and the revolutionists have disappeared."

The waitress brought another iced green tea for Haruka and an unknown concoction for Kodia. As she walked away Haruka stared intently at the Ancient.

"Kodia, as charming and nostalgic as it is to sit here in the café and discus things, you aren't Michiru. However, doesn't it seem odd that since Chenoa and Minako disappeared that everything is suddenly at peace?" She leaned back and stirred her tea.

Kodia's eyes seemed distance for a moment until he forced himself back to the here and now. He looked at Haruka, "Perhaps there is more to this than we know. Perhaps, something else happened in the fight those two had. Who were they fighting with anyway? Chenoa wouldn't outright attack Minako and I highly doubt Minako would do the same. Maybe more investigation needs to be put into this."

"Ahhh… just like old times, perhaps we can find some youma and kick some arse."

"Must you always be thinking about fighting. It would do you good to take pleasure in the nicer things in life." It was Michiru. She had come into the café while the two were talking.

"I will take on the nicer things in life at home thank you. Of course, I am sure you will be there when I do." Haruka coyly grinned at the Sea Senshi.

Kodia started to get uncomfortable as the talk was leaning more towards that of lovers instead of business. "I must be going, as nice as this is. I can not to be reminded of more pleasant times."

"Don't feel you have to leave on account of us, Kodia." Michiru replied as she sat down beside Haruka.

Kodia stood, "You will excuse me. Haruka, let me know if you decide to call a council meeting on this."
