Chapter two- The New Girl
In the past two years, Ryo Sanada had seen some pretty weird things. But never, in his entire life had Ryo Sanada, bearer of the armor of Wildfire seen anything like this. Usually every girl in the high school would kill to have Ryo's best friend pay attention to her. Seiji Date, bearer of the armor of Halo, was the hottest, so the girls thought, and most eligible guy at the school. Everyday, when the girls caught site of Seiji they flocked around him like flies to a dead carcass.
But just recently, a new girl appeared at the school. No one knew any thing about her, or where she came from. But there was one thing every one did know; the new girl and Seiji did not get along. Every time they ran into each it always was met with verbal insults. Shuu ReiFaun, bearer of the armor of Hardrock, had once commented that Seiji and the new girl acted much like they were related.
Ryo stopped mid-thought and right in the middle of the hallway. Could it be possible, that maybe. just maybe, that Seiji and the new girl were in fact related??? I mean they acted alike at times. Hell they even fight and look alike.
'Nah,' he reasoned. 'There is no way possible that Seiji and the new girl were related.' As Ryo ended his thought, he found himself on the tile flooring of the school's hallway. And someone was currently on top of him. Tiger blue clashed with midnight blue as Ryo looked to see who had knocked him to the ground. It was the new girl.
"Oh!" she muttered in alarm. "I'm sorry. I was trying to get away from your friend and wasn't paying attention to where I was going."
Ryo chuckled at her response, "Hey, it's okay. I'm just surprised you didn't start yelling at me the way you do at Seiji."
The new girl laughed catching Ryo off guard once more, "I suppose your friend and I do fight a lot, don't we? It's a defense mechanism I'm afraid."
Ryo looked at her quizzically, almost as if asking "A defense mechanism?"
She nodded, "Yes, a defense mechanism. You see. where I came from I had a troubled life. And because of it I don't like it when people constantly try to get me to go out with them and I'm not all that friendly with those who think that they are better then everyone else."
Just as she finished speaking, the bell rang and the new girl disappeared leaving Ryo to think about what she had said. Ryo stood up and brushed off the pants of his green school uniform. Now all he had to do was tell Seiji to knock it off and maybe things could go back to normal. Maybe.

Usagi watched the Ryo leave the school campus from the shadows. She had taken a great interest in him and his friends. Including the one she had constant verbal wars with. There was something about them, something familiar. And she was going to find out what it was.
~Thirtieth Century~
A dark figure sat on his throne watching a small orb. A small picture was in the orb, and appeared to be moving. A closer look showed that it was Usagi walking down the streets of the city she currently resided in. The figure grinned in a possessive way, almost as if Usagi belonged to him. On the platform below the figure, four men dressed in armor kneeled.
"Talu," the figure called out. "I want you to study and watch over the one named Usagi."
"Yes your highness," Talu responded before disappearing.
~Tokyo High School next day~
"Ryo are you crazy? You want the new girl to sit with us at lunch?" Shuu yelled as they made their way to the lunchroom.
"No I'm not crazy. Besides, I already asked her to sit with us and she agreed," Ryo replied opening the door to the cafeteria.
"She does know that Seiji will be sitting with us today right?" Touma asked as he took his place in the lunch line.
Ryo paused a moment before answering. "Yea she knows. That's why it took me so long to get her to say yes."
Shin laughed, "This will make for a very interesting lunch."
After paying for their lunches, Ryo, Shin, Shuu, and Touma made their way to their usual table only to find the new girl sitting in Ryo's seat. She looked up at them and gave a small smile.
"Hello," she greeted them.
"Hey Usa. Glad you did decide to sit with us," Ryo returned the greeting as he sat down next to her.
Touma, Shuu and Shin sat down and began to eat their lunches before making small talk.
"So your name is Usa?" Shuu asked.
Usagi giggled softly, "No that's just what Ryo calls me. My name is Usagi Serenity Tsukino."
The group of four took in Usagi's appearance. She had short silver hair put up into two pigtails. Her eyes were a deep shade of blue with silver flecks in them and she wore the female version of the school uniform, and she looked quite good in it too. Suddenly, the boys took notice that Usagi was blushing.
"Is something wrong Usagi? You look a little red," Shin asked.
"I'm not used to being the center of attention."
The boys thought for a moment then realized they had been staring at her. All of them gave an embarrassed look and suddenly became interested in their lunches. That was until Seiji walked up to the table.
Seiji and blinked and smirked at Usagi, "Fancy meeting you here."
"Can't say the same about you. But I will say keep your distance or lose a finger," Usagi shot back, glaring at Seiji from the other end of Ryo.
Seiji raised an eyebrow, "Resorting to cannibalism are we Usagi? How distasteful."
"And how would you know about taste? I bet I have a lot more taste in my little pinky then you do in your entire body."
"Is that a challenge?"
"More of a diss really."
All insults had stopped and the two were now glaring at each other in pure Rei/Usagi fashion.
"Hey guys, think we can have a peaceful lunch?" Shin asked.
"Only if he leaves!"
"Only if she leaves!"
Both responses came at the same time, drawing a laugh from the table. Realizing that neither of them were going to leave, Usagi and Seiji looked opposite ways. This only drew more laughter from the four other boys. Usagi grinned to herself despite the situation. Oh how she loved to push Seiji's buttons.
