Find the Wind Chapter 2
AN: I have been so busy :/ anyway, enjoy.
Hotaru had been up all night. She had been drinking tea to keep her up or anything with caffeine but even then, it failed. Setsuna opened her door and saw her with a book open, it was probably from the Silver Mellnium before they were reborn.
"Haruka-papa," Hotaru muttered as Setsuna put a blue blanket over her. She had decided not to wake up the sleeping girl, she saw notes by the sleeping Hotaru. Setsuna knew Hotaru wouldn't mind taking a look through her notes.
Setsuna opened Michiru's door, not wanting to wake her at all. The aqua haired girl had stayed up all night crying. She had been up to 4 am and it was only 8 am now, Setsuna planned on calling Chibi-usa and Usagi soon, this was important.
Hotaru's dream
Hotaru opened her eyes, no, rather Sailor Saturn did. She was dressed up, she didn't remember transforming. There was a big door, it was a gray door, she thought it was Pluto's but it wasn't.
"What is that door?" Saturn said, hearing her own voice. She touched the door, it made a creak sound. The air was cold, there was truly nothing there. "I know this place. It's the door between The World of the Living and the World of the Dead."
Saturn started to cry, "Haruka-papa! Are you here? Please answer! We miss you so much." Saturn felt a nice embrace; it was cold yet hot at the same time, she knew this touch too well. "Haruka-papa?" Saturn looked up.
It was indeed her 'papa,' but as a ghost. She wasn't human anymore, just her spirit. Haruka rubbed Saturn's head while the guardian of Saturn cried, her arms become tighter and tighter on Haruka by every passing moment.
"Hotaru," Haruka whispered. "I'm so sorry."
Saturn stopped crying and slowly looked up at Haruka, she felt somewhat confused.
"Wh-what are you sorry for, Haruka-papa?" Saturn asked, not able to look up anymore again. She began to whipe the tears on her face. She felt her papa's light finger across her face.
"Don't cry, you're too pretty for that Hotaru," Haruka smiled at the young girl.
"H-Haruka-papa, we will bring you back! We promise!" Saturn said, "We can't live without you." Saturn hugged herself as if she was going to be attacked. "We can't live without you. Setsuna-mama can't, Michiru-mama can't, I can't nor can the rest of the guardians."
"Hotaru," Haruka said smiling. "Do my a favor when you wake up, promise? Tell Michiru I love her so much, okay? You are a strong girl, I hope to see you again soon." Haruka put her finger out, showing a pinky swear and Saturn completed it.
Then, Hotaru woke up, she was no longer in her uniform. "Setsuna-mama, Setsuna-mama, Setsuna-mama!" Hotaru ran downstairs as quick as she could, she almost slipped and saw her 'mama,' sitting at the table. "I saw Haruka-papa, it my dreams! I saw her between the World of the Living and the World of the Dead."
"I knew that would happen," Setsuna was honest, closing the book she had been reading. "As you know, Hotaru, I can't tell you what happens in the future. However, after an event passed, is different." Hotaru said nothing and hugged her mom.
"Have you phoned Chibi-usa-chan and Usagi-san?" Hotaru asked, she was desperate.
"I'll do it," said a voice, the two looked at the aqua haired girl. "I can tell them." Michiru picked up the phone and dialed the number.
At the Tsukino house..
"Usagi, that was my pancake!" Chibi-usa said as the two fought over a pancake. "Give it back!" Meanwhile, Usagi's mom entered the room with more pancakes.
"Girls, there's more," said Usagi's mom. "See, now let's not fight and fighting at breakfast isn't nice." That's when the two girls heard the phone ring. "Who could it be at this time?" It was only 8 am.
"Usagi, it's for you," Usagi's mom said as Usagi got up and Chibi-usa stole her pancakes and Usagi gave her the evil stare which said, 'I will get you back later.' Usagi then took the phone from her mom. "Hello?"
"Usagi-san," Michiru said. "Or should I say princess?" Michiru sounded chocked up but Usagi said nothing about it.
"No, Usagi-san is fine Michiru-san," Usagi said as she went upstairs, Chibi-usa followed her. Usagi's mom looked at the two girls confused, she always felt like the two hid a secret from her but she never asked them to tell her; she wasn't the person to pry information from someone.
Usagi's room
"Haruka-san died?" Usagi said as Chibi-usa's fork hit the floor and she was shaking. All she did was think of Hotaru, how did she feel? So many thoughts were swimming around in her head and same as questions.
"Yes, two days ago, I'm giving the phone to Hotaru. I am sorry, Usagi-san," Michiru said who gave the phone to Hotaru right away and sat down near Setsuna.
"Hotaru-chan..." Usagi said as she first heard Hotaru cry. "What happened? How did Haruka-san..."
"I rather you come over, Usagi-san," Hotaru said in a tone which Usagi could even describe. The young girl sounded so broken up, she sounded tired like she didn't sleep at all. "Can I speak to Chibi-usa-chan?"
"Of course, Hotaru-chan," Usagi said as she passed the phone to Chibi-usa who took the phone.
"Hotaru-chan..." Chibi-usa said as she almost started to cry. She couldn't cry, she had to be strong for her friend. However, one of their fellow guardians had died, just in the blink of any eye.
"Chibi-usa-chan," Hotaru said, finally breaking down. "Me, Michiru-mama and Setsuna-mama were wondering if you and Usagi-san could try to bring Haruka-papa back. I saw Haruka-papa in a dream and broke down there, please Chibi-usa-chan."
"Of course we can help, Hotaru-chan," Chibi-usa said in a calm voice. "I am pretty sure Haruka-san wants to come back as much as you want her back. She loves you and the rest of us; of course she would never disappear that easy. We can be over at about 10:00 am."
"Thank you, Chibi-usa-chan," Hotaru said, sounding the happiest she had sounded in the last couple of minutes. "See you and Usagi-san soon." Hotaru hung up the phone and Chibi-usa did the same, she placed it on Usagi's table.
"I guess we're going to their house at 10:00 am, their house is about a half an hour from here, right?" Usagi asked as Chibi-usa nodded. "Great, I say then we get ready Chibi-usa. I think we'll probably be at their house for a bit as in guests, did you ask Hotaru-chan that?"
Chibi-usa sweat dropped. "I sorta forgot, but we can bring some stuff maybe two shirts, two pants..you get it, right? It's just I think they would want to save her as soon as possible, Usagi. I am sure if the other girls were here, they would want the same. Do you think we should tell them?"
"No, I rather not bother them. All of them would then need to come home," Usagi said with a sigh. "Well, what do you say, Chibi-usa? Let's get ready and head over there."
The Outers House
"So, they'll be here soon," Hotaru explained. "They are going to help us get Haruka-papa back, Michiru-mama, Setsuna-mama. If we put our powers together, I know we can get her back." Hotaru's heart was filling up with power and love, crushing the thoughts about her fellow guardian.
"Hotaru," Michiru said hugging the small girl. "Thank you so much." Hotaru hugged back tightly too.
"Oh, Michiru-mama, Haruka-papa wanted me to tell you she loves you," Hotaru said to her other mom as Michiru's eyes started to water. "Sorry Michiru-mama, I didn't mean to make you cry."
There was soon a know later on the door, it was Chibi-usa and Usagi. Hotaru opened the door, hugging Chibi-usa like she was going to disappear soon and then hugged Usagi. Chibi-usa hugged Michiru and Michiru recieved the hug with all the love the little princess had to offer and Usagi hugged her too.
"Thanks for coming," Setsuna said as she poured some tea. Setsuna explained the whole story as Hotaru stayed by Michiru's side the entire time.
"We will save her, Setsuna-san!" Usagi said, "Now, what kind of plan are we going to use?"
"You see Usagi-san, being the guardian of death, I can see the World of the Dead and the World of the Living. This means I can visit both sides, I was able to access it through a dream. However, going to those doors is complicated when not in a dream."
"So, what do we do?" Usagi asked Hotaru a bit confused.
"We travel to my old castle before we were all reborn," Hotaru explained, "Anyone can get lost in them. First, we use Sailor Teleport to get there; once we enter the doors though, there is no way out until we reach the other side which is where I saw Haruka-papa earlier."
"We can do it though," Usagi said as she smiled. "I guess there is no time to waste, right?"
"Right," Hotaru said with a smile.
The girls went to the backyard and transformed.
"Moon Eternal Power, make up!"
"Pink Moon Crystal Power, Make up!"
"Neptune Eternal Power, Make up!"
"Saturn Eternal Power, Make up!"
"Pluto Eternal Power, Make up!"
All the girls stood there, transformed.
"Well, let's get going then," Eternal Sailor Saturn said as they all put their minds together as one.
Haruka...Michiru thought.
"Sailor Teleport!" all of the girls shouted as a light from their planets formed and taking them off to where they needed to be.
