Sailor Moon

A Friendship Renewed

Chapter Two

Side note here: I've just realized that I have given Lita's childhood friend two names; Brianna and Adrianna. Please tell me which one you like the best and I will go back and change it to the winner. Sorry about the confusion.

As the group of friends walked through the entranceway of the Dome, they noticed a young man in his early twenties coming towards them. Lita noticed him staring at her and was about to become angry at him for doing that when she noticed the look of recognition dawn on his face.

"Hello. My name is Jason and welcome to the Tokyo Dome and For His Glory concert. If I could see one of your tickets, I will escort you to where you will be seated for the concert." Jason replied politely, while he stared at Lita for a moment; which unnerved the tomboy a bit.

"I must apologize for staring at you miss, but you look a lot like my friend Adrianna. You wouldn't happen to be Lita Kino would you?" Jason asked curiously.

"Yes I am Jason. Do you know Adrianna personally." Lita asked. She felt her heart speed up a bit at the mention of her childhood friend's name. She felt she was that much closer to finally seeing Adrianna again, she almost couldn't wait.

"Yes I do. She's one of my best friends, and a great gal. I must say, she sure is anxious to see you again. Now if you will all follow me, I will take you to...balcony 5" Jason replied, taking a quick look at Lita's ticket before handing it back. As they got in to the elevator, Jason pressed the 3rd floor button and waited. Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed Mina flirting quietly with him, but he ignored her, much to the blonde's frustration. Soon they stopped in front of a balcony's door and Jason stepped forward and unlocked the door.

"Here we are. As you can see, there is plenty of room to move around; dance if you would like. If you need anything or want refreshment, please press this button on the control and order what you want when you hear someone over the intercom. I must get back downstairs. I have a lot to do." Jason instructed, bowing.

"Why wasn't he paying any attention to me?!" Mina pouted.

In case you didn't notice Mina, he has a ring on his finger. I would guess he's either engaged or already married." Ami replied as she walked around the balcony.

"You seem a little nervous Lita. Are you alright?" Rei asked, concerned for her tall friend.

"Yeah, I'm fine. It's just hard to believe that I'm this close to meeting my friend again. I almost can't wait." Lita confessed quietly.

"Well I have a feeling you won't have to wait too long Lita." Darien replied reassuredly.

Lita just smiled as she took a seat near front and waited for the concert to start. Her friend quickly followed suit and the lights dimmed shortly after. The concert was all they expected and more; everyone had a wonderful time singing and dancing along to the music. Lita even saw Adrianna a couple times in the background on the stage during some of the number.

About half way through the concert, a large group of the performers came out and sang the most beautiful number that had everyone in the Tokyo Dome quieted and listening intently. Many had tears in their eyes as they listened to: Shine Jesus Shine by Don Moen. There was a moment of absolutely quietness before the audience erupted into a thunderous applauses. Just as everything was quiet and the performers started to leave the stage, a mother and father came forward with their young son.

"Miss, can your god heal our son?" the mother called out desperately to the young woman near the front of the stage. It just happened to be Adrianna.

"Yes he can! I really believe he can." Adrianna replied firmly and with utmost confidence and stretched out her hands towards the boy and lifted him. She invited the parents up on the stage as well, as she gently set the boy in a chair as the parents arrived and Jason brought a chair forward.

"What is that you wish to have healed by God?" Adrianna asked the parents in perfect Japanese as the cameras brought the scene up closer on the big screens, so the audience could see what was happening.

"Seven years ago, Kenji came down with rheumatic fever. For reasons we can't really understand, his left leg stopped growing." the father replied, lifting the boy's pant leg. The boy blushed in shame and tried to cover his leg.

"Kenji, you have nothing to be ashamed of. It is the devil who has attacked you and God will grow your leg out through me. If that is what you wish and believe?" Adrianna replied firmly.

"I do. I want to be normal again. I believe you can do it." Kenji replied as he looked at Adrianna and smiled. Adrianna smiled back, admiring the boy's confidence.

"Mom, dad, you can help as well if you believe this can happen for your son." Adrianna as she looked at the man and woman behind her son. "Just put a hand on his shoulders and repeat what I say. The parents did as asked and waited.

"Demon of affirmaties...I command you...to leave...this boy in the blood of Jesus!" Adrianna commanded, waiting each time for the boy's parent to repeat her words. They did this three times until Adrianna felt the demon leave.

"Now, leg I command you to heal and grow out as it should be. You grow out now; every bit of muscle, tendon, bone and blood vessel; you come out right now in Jesus name." Adrianna commanded strongly. The parents believed in what Adrianna was doing and repeated what she did.

Within a few moments, the bad leg started to grow and the audience gasped in surprise as they watched the screens up on the walls. Within another few moments, the leg had finished growing and the little boy stood up and tried his newly grown leg. Looking at Adrianna in amazment and happiness, he suddenly threw himself in to Adrianna and cried in happiness while thanking the young woman repeatedly.

"You are very welcome Kenji. Now take your healing and join your parents for the rest of the concert." Adrianna replied gently as she stood up. Kenji nodded and headed back to his parents who walked with him back to their seats. "Now, I think this calls for an upbeat song; which I do believe is the next one."

Adrianna walked a bit to the back of the stage and grabbed a mike and turned around as the music started again. The song started out slowly and quickly picked up to a joyful and upbeat rhythm (God Is Good by Don Moen). Needless to say, everyone was immediately on their feet, dancing and clapping. A couple of times, at the end of a couple of songs, people came forward and announced they had been suddenly healed of a numerous ailments that they had not been able to get rid of, despite of doctors' help. Near the end of three hours of the concert, a group of the performers stood backstage near the curtain stood together with their tall, very anxious friend, reassuring her and getting ready for the next number.

"Come on Adrianna, you've been looking forward to this for weeks. I'm sure your friend is just as anxious as you are. Jason should be getting Lita by now. Tell you what, in a couple of days, we'll have a huge party at the beach house and celebrate the success of the concert and you finally getting together with your friend again. Now let's get in our positions." another close friend of Adrianna's commanded gently to her nervous friend.

In the meantime:

"Lita, can you come with me please. The performers and I have a surprise for you." Jason replied. He smiled as he saw the others stand up and begin to gather around Lita, knowing they wanted to go as well. "Just Lita please. This is a special matter."

"Alright. It's okay guys, everything will be fine." Lita replied with a gentle smile and joined Jason at the door. Lita followed Jason down to the backstage, on the opposite side of from the stage from where her childhood friend and the performers were waiting for Jason's signal.

"Do you know this song Lita?" Jason asked as he handed her a sheet of lyrics to a song. Lita quickly scanned the sheet and nodded.

"Yes, it's one of my favorites." Lita answered and took the microphone he handed her, wondering what the heck what the heck was going on.

"There's going to be a group coming out from the other side as you step out. As they start the song, join in with them when you are ready." Jason replied and at Lita's nod, he signaled to the group across the stage and the music started.

As Lita stepped out on to the stage, the group that had been waiting, can out slowly, in a circle singing the same song Lita was about to start. As she joined them, as they neared each other, two of them performers on each side stepped aside until only a single line of people made a circle round some one or something. Just as everyone thought that was it, two of the performers, standing together stepped aside, revealing Adrianna singing with the others.

'Lita?" Adrianna thought quietly as she walked slowly towards the young woman about fifteen feet from her. Happy tears starting to come to her eyes as two of the performers glanced at her from the side of her eyes, and smiled gently.

"Adrianna, is that you?" Lita whispered, tears coming to eyes as well. All of a suddenly both girls couldn't take it any longer and ran towards each other; practically colliding with each other and embrassed fiercely.

"God in heaven Lita, I've missed you so much. This seems like a dream." Adrianna cried as she embraced her childhood friend.

Up on the balcony, Lita's friends were surprised. They had never seen Lita this emotional before. At the same time, they were very happy for her. They watched as another young woman came up to them and led them off the stage as the song continued.

Okay, I'm going to close this chapter off here. If you have any suggestions for me, I would love to here them. Hope you enjoy it.
