Ch. 7 Terra's Friends
A/N: This Chapter was co-authored with sangoscourage.
As Terra, Darien, and Usagi walk down the street, Terra stops in front of the arcade. "What is it Terra?" Darien ask as he stops to stand beside his older sister.
"You see those two girls with the blond and yellowish,orange hair? They've been living with me since they were nine, and they're supposed to be at home." Terra answers sounding a little angry. The three walk in to the arcade and the two girls come up to them.
"Elora and Kohaku, you two are supposed to be at home." Terra scolds them lightly. The two girls look at Terra apologetically.
"We did go home, but when we got there the door was locked and when we knocked you didn't answer so we came here. Sorry for not calling you." Kohaku apologizes with a soft tone.
"Terra, who are they?" Elora asks, hiding behind Kohaku.
"This is my younger brother, Darien Shields, and his girl friend, Usagi Tsukino." Terra answers the shy, fourteen-year old calmly. Elora comes out from behind Kohaku and shakes their hands. Just as Elora did Kohaku shakes their hands. They're about to leave just as Haruka and the others come in the door.
"Hey Terra, did Usagi drag you in here or did you come in willingly?" Haruka asks teasingly. Terra laughs and hugs Haruka, Michiru, Setsuna, and Hotaru.
"Yes, I came in here willingly, to drag these two out." Terra answers, lightly pushing Kohaku and Elora forward.
"Hey I didn't know you had kids." Michiru states lightly, smiling at the two girls. Terra laughs and pats Elora's head, seeing her hide behind Darien.
"They're not mine, they've just been living with me since they were nine, due to being left on my door step when they were that age." Terra explains to the aqua haired women, with a fond simle directed to the girls. Elora tucks her blond shoulder length hair behind her ear in a shy way. "I assume you guys are sailor scouts so I'll tell you who I am, I'm Sailor Sun, soldier of light and energy, and I'm also known as the Sun Princess Eleanora." Elora introduces herself, confidently, surprising everyone.
"And I'm Sailor Dysonomia, soldier of strife and justice." Kohaku introduces herself with a level tone. Terra stares at the two girls with a shocked look on her face.
"Girls, I'm surprised, especially with you Elora, your usually so shy around new people." Terra states, surprised.
"Can we stop for a snack Terra? I'm sure Elora would like to get to know Usagi and Darien to." Kohaku asked, especially when she saw Elora looking curiously at the future royal couple.
"Alright. I am getting a little hungry, and it would be a good opportunity to start looking for a new place."Terra replied, leading everyone over to a large table in the corner of the arcade.
"I believe there is a place not far from us that just came up for sale. It's a nice place and reasonably priced." Haruka replied as she and Michiru sat down together, with the three young girls in the middle; Setsuna beside Usagi.
"Is everyone ready to order?" Motoki replied as he came up to the table. Everyone placed their orders and Terra asked for a newspaper. As they were talking, Lizzy came over with a newspaper and handed it to Darien.
"Lizzy, this is my sister, Terra. Terra, this is Lizzy; Motoki's little sister. And before you ask Lizzy, Terra and I just found each other." Darien introduced the two girls, handing the newspaper over to his sister.
"Well, congratulations you two. Where will you be living Terra?" Lizzy asked.
"Right now, the girls and I are living in a rather small place and looking for a bigger and better place. We were on our way to pick up our things when I saw the Elora and Kohaku in here. I'd like to check out as many places as I can before I make my decision." Terra answered.
"Well good luck, I hope you find something. I better get back to work before the rush of customers come in." Lizzy replied, turning to leave just as Motoki came up with a tray of food.
"Yes you better. And could you get that other tray; it's for this table as well." Motoki replied, smirking from behind his sister; scaring her.
"Motoki! Don't do that!" Lizzy growled under her breath, making everyone laugh.
Just as the group settled in to their snacks and chatting about the events of the past day, the bell over the door rang and the voices of Minako, Makoto, Rei and Ami met their ears. Terra looked momentarily over to the inners and noticed them whispering to each other while looking their way. Turning back around, she looked at Michiru and raised and eyebrow in question.
"Those four are very protective of Usagi, and can be very suspicious of others; especially Rei or Makoto."The sea goddess simply nodded her head and sighed.
"Which two are Makoto and Rei?" Terra asked.
"Makoto is the tallest of them; with the ponytail and Rei has the long black hair." Michiru answered.
"Why don't they like Terra?" Elora asks looking over at them.
"Because they think Darien's cheating on Usagi with her." Haruka answers her sitting back in her spot.
"They should act more mature then that." Kohaku states making Haruka chuckle. The girls walk over their table and glare at Terra.
"If your gonna acuse Darien-sempai of cheating on Usagi-chan then you'd better keep your mouths shut cause that's not the story." Elora tells them surprising Terra, her mother figure once again.
"What do you mean that's not the story, your just a braty kid." Rei replies making Haruka mad.
"Rei, you insult either one of these girls again I will rearrange your attitude with my fist." Haruka tells her angrily.
"Haruka-sempai, I can handle a mouthy fifteen-year old girl myself, no need to protect me." Elora states through her teeth. Kohaku and Terra toss a surprised galnce at the usually shy, secretive teen.
"Terra has been looking after my cousin and I since we were nine, she's Darien-sempai's older sister." Kohaku explains still staring at her cousin.
