Chapter Three part 2

" Here's some painkillers Rei, just take one about every 6 hours. That should ease the pain in your ankel. Please be careful on your way home this time." Dr. Mizuno handed Rei the bottle of medicene. Minako grinned at the doctor and took one of Rei's arms to help her walk. "Thanks Dr. Mizuno. I swear Rei-chan can be such a klutz!"

"It's your fault I sprained my ankel in the first place!" Rei glared at her friend, who just stuck out her tongue at her.

Flashback

Two figures ran through the rain trying to make it back to the shrine. Thunder boomed drowning out Minako's giddy laughter.

"Race ya there!" she yelled over the storms rumbling. Rei gave her a skeptical look and Minako ran by her and slapped her ass as hard as she could. "Better get that butt of yours moving or you'll be eating my dust!"

"Dammit Minako! Get back here so I can throttle some sense into that blonde head of yours!" She chased after the said blonde. Her heel slipped off of a curb and threw her weight off balance onto her ankel. Minako's laughter cut off as she saw her friend fall and she rushed to her side.

"Rei! Are you ok?" A muttered ow and a glare is all she got.

End of Flashback

Rei limped her way out of the hospital with Minako's help and they waved down a cab. As they got in Rei popped a pill in her mouth and swallowed, waiting for the throb in her ankel to subside. Minako told the driver to take them to the shrine. Silenece filled the car as Rei began to feel sleepy and Minako rubbed her back.

"You ok? You look kind of out of it." The blonde poked her friend in the side and Rei gave her a little smile.

"Yeah, I just feel tired. Probably the medicine. Hey where are we going?" Minako and Rei looked around out the windows and noticed they weren't headed towards the shine. When they looked at the driver he had changed, growing fangs and turning a tomato red color, his eyes were all black showing no white in the rearview mirror.

"Ah shit!" Minako muttered grabbing Rei, transforming into Sailor Venus, and jumped from the car as it exploded. The shockwave of the explosion set them sailing through the air. Minako looked down and saw the ground rushing towards them. At the last minute she flipped over taking the full brunt of the landing then rolled with Rei still in her arms. They staggared to their feet as Minako looked around for the enemy as Rei took out her Henshin pen. Rei sank to her knees, to tired to transform.

When Minako didn't see any sign of the youma she scanned Rei for any injuries. They both suffered scrapes and bruised but nothing major. Rei giggled, she felt oddly giddy, weird considering she barely escaped getting blown to itty bitty pieces. 'heh...itty bitty...'

Minako looked at Rei giggling to herself. 'My god, she's finally cracked...' Minako kneeled down by Rei ."Come on Rei, I'll carry you back to the shrine."

Rei wrapped her arms around her friends neck as she was piggy backed back to the shrine.

Rain still poured and Rei was still giggly. She leaned her head against Minako's shoulder. "Thanks for saving me." she whispered sleepily. Minako glanced at Rei and continued walking through the down pour, the Hikawa shrine steps coming into veiw. 'God I REALLY hate those stairs.' "Don't worry about it Rei. Youma can drive, huh, who knew?" She heard Rei giggle then sigh. She started to drift off into sleep. 'Damn those are powerful pills. hehehehe.'

Minako felt Rei sag against her as she fell asleep. She walked up the steps cursing their inventor. Then, barely a whisper, she heard the slept mumble.

"I love you."

'It's the drugs...' The blonde told herself but she still felt the butterflies in her stomach.

At the hospital

Dr. Mizuno sat at her desk typing away at her computer when she abruptly stopped. Staring off into space.

'Did I give Rei the right medicene?...Yeah I'm sure I did.' she went back to typing as the 'right' medicene sat on the table across the room.

Back to the shrine

Rei slowly opened her eyes. It felt as if she slept for years, a wonderful thought.

"Glad to see your awake. Thanks alot for making me have to drag you up all those stairs!" Rei turned her head and looked at Minako. She noticed the band aids and bruises when she remembered their near death experience. She was snapped out of her thoughts when Minako asked if she was ok.

"Yeah, I still feel uncharacteristically happy. I think they gave me the wrong medicene..."

Minako cracked a smile. " Then we better go tell Dr.Mizuno. 'Oh I'm sorry Doctor, I'm happy and we can't have that. You see I'm supposed to be pissed at the world today..." She ducked barely escaped getting nailed with a pillow. Rei tried to glare but she couldn't help but laugh. The night went on like that, each trying to one up the other in verbal warfare and soft 'n squishy airborne projectiles. By the end of the night both friends were sound asleep, curled up together on the bed.
