But I didn't scrape my knee.
I was staring the senshi of Wind directly in the eye.
No, no scrapped knee. Although, I would have preferred it had my leg had been torn OFF at the knee.
Uranus just stared at me. I swallowed hard the terror rising up in me and I stared back. I had done nothing wrong. So why was she looking at me like that?
Ok, so, that's a bit of an understatement. I had done something wrong. I had slept with Michiru. But she kissed me, not the other way around! And that kiss had led to things that, while I am sure were fun and pleasurable, I had no recollection of it what-so-ever.
Uranus and I were both panting, sweat gleaming on our skins. The lights from the amusement park made us look iridescent. A burn mark lay between me and Uranus. A youma had just been defeated by the two of us, although me hitting it with a baseball bat probably pissed it off more than anything else.
I saw the other Senshi from the corner of my eye, standing off to one side, looking as confused as I felt. One minute, they were fighting the youma, Senshi with Senshi. The next, I was there, standing in street clothes and wielding a baseball bat, running toward the youma as if nothing had happened.
I clutched my bat as Uranus clutched her Space Sword. My heart was thundering in my chest. Everything in me screamed to run away. Even if I did, even if I wanted to, Uranus would out run me.
I didn't stand a chance at defeating her. She is a fucking SOLDIER for Christ's sake! A soldier with powers that shouldn't even exisit. But in her world, they do...
Uranus charged me, her sword drawn. My heart stopped. I think the world stopped as she raised her weapon and brought down toward my head..
No, I wish I had scrapped my knee. Because then I would feel the pain and realize, I was just dreaming a manga character was really about to kill me...
