SailorStar9: This is Chapter 1 of this fic. (Sighs) Guys and girls, will it kill you to leave a review, instead of just putting this fic up on your favorited list and story alerts?
Disclaimers: I own nothing, except for the plot bunny and the pairings.
Chapter 1: Reunion, Cloud And Ice
Seriously, that girl can run. Hibari mused as he followed the fleeing girl via the rooftops. But then, he smirked. This makes things a lot more interesting. This direction... he frowned, before he realized where she was heading. The oak tree! She stopped? He paused in his tracks when a group of Varia suddenly appeared around the ice caster.
"Leftovers, huh?" Ami smirked, a small bottle of bright blue liquid in her hand as she coagulated her ice powers around her closed fist. Jumping up, she tossed the vital right in the middle of the Varia. "Death Frost!" she fired her 'Diamond Dust' attack at the 'Vial of Liquid Sky'. The effect was instantaneous as the group of Varia were turned into ice. The leader then took the opening and attacked from above, when he was struck down with a single strike.
"Kyoya..." the ice Guardian blinked, noticing her rescuer as the two landed, Hibari having one of his toufas out.
"Finally stopped running, huh?" Hibari kept his toufa.
"It's been quite a while," Ami replied, removing her mask. "8 years, in fact."
"That old man," Hibari stated. "He's the benefactor you were talking about."
"Yes." Ami confirmed.
"Hibari! Hibari!" Hibird chirped, landing on its tamer's shoulder.
"I was wondering how you found me this fast." Ami let out an amused chuckle, "You never change, do you?"
"Shut up." Hibari looked away, before he stumbled slightly.
"Kyoya..." Ami caught the raven before he hit the ground. "The 'Death Heater' poison," she realized. "Taku," she sighed. "Even with the antidote, it isn't wise to move around too much. Idiot." activating her transformation, she laid Hibari on her lap and proceeded to neutralize the remaining poison. That ring... the silver band Hibari had around his neck caught her eye. He... she looked Hibari. Kept it... Kyoya, you... even if you never said it outloud, your feelings for me... has always been...
"That's... right..." Hibari peered open his eyes. "I..."
"Shut up." Guardian Mercury chided as she reversed her transformation. "I know. Besides," she removed the chain around her neck. "You aren't the only one." she revealed the ebony crystal that dangled from the necklace.
"You too?" Hibari let out a small smile and slept peacefully in her arms; the reunited couple never had to say those three words, because in their hearts, they already knew.
SailorStar9: Now that's done, read and review.
