Me: *running from Taiki* Taiki likes Ami! Taiki likes Ami!
Taiki: *bright red* I DO NOT!
Me: THEN WHY ARE YOU ALL RED!!
Seiya: *Snicker*
Yaten: She doesn't own Sailor Moon and that but does own you doesn't she Kaiya?
Kaiya: Yea…but you own my heart…*kiss*
Seiya, Taiki, Me: Awwwww
Chapter 10: Nervous Interruptions
Seiya had just left for the dumpling's house, where she was alone tonight and had asked him to keep her company. Well, SEIYA said she had asked…so he had probably given her no choice, knowing Seiya that is.
Taiki and Yaten were strumming and playing away on their guitars and keyboards while Kaiya sang along in a gentle voice. After a few minutes they decided to take a break.
'You have an amazing voice, Kaiya.' Taiki complimented.
Kaiya giggled. 'You guys, the Three Lights, are telling me I have a great voice? Hmm…'
Yaten sat down beside Kaiya on the couch. 'Hey, you can't stop us from telling the truth you know.'
Kaiya's expression turned evil. 'Really? Ok then, try and say it Yaten.'
Yaten and Taiki exchanged puzzled glances. 'Ok…You have an amazing –
Kaiya launched herself at Yaten when he didn't expect it, tickling him all over, and a simple sentence turned into a massive fit of giggles that left Yaten gasping for breath.
Kaiya smirked. 'I win.' She said simply, conveying everything she was thinking.
Taiki laughed as Yaten started to glower.
Kaiya changed the conversation quickly before Yaten could start going off. 'You think that Usagi has killed Seiya yet? Cos I know I wouldn't have lasted this long.'
Taiki seemed to think about something. 'Well, there is about a 75 to 25 percent chance she HAS killed him but then again…that isn't include –
'Taiki. I don't think she meant literally.'
Taiki looked away. 'Right. I knew that…'
Kaiya laughed. 'I think we could check up on her. I mean Seiya might have caused her to lock herself in her own bathroom, to get away from him.'
'Ok,' Yaten said, 'Let's go.'
-/--/-/-/-/-/-/--
The timid knock echoed eerily through the quiet house…until the quiet was shattered by several screams originating from the back of the house.
Kaiya and Yaten looked at each other with puzzled glances.
Taiki paused and listened to the pounding footsteps approaching the front door. It wasn't long after that a blond head of hair blew open the door while several other girls continued to yell at Seiya.
'Hello! Can I hel – Oh. Hi Taiki. Yaten. Kaiya. How are you all?' Usagi asked happily.
Kaiya looked around Usagi towards the girls yelling at Seiya. 'Um…Hi Ami, Makoto, Rei, Minako…Ummm…How are we all?'
Ami turned to Kaiya, as if only just realising there were people at the door, and turned pink. 'Um. Hi…'
The other girls turned quickly towards Kaiya, Taiki and Yaten. 'Oh. Hello guys! What are you all doing here?' Minako exclaimed.
Taiki, Yaten and Kaiya sweat dropped. 'Well…we were wondering how Seiya was going…because he really didn't say what was happening with him and Usagi here…' Kaiya hesitated.
Taiki gestured towards the house. 'May we come in?'
Usagi was startled, as if she hadn't realised they were still standing outside. 'Oh! Of Course, Come in!'
Yaten, Kaiya and Taiki walked into the house and followed Usagi and the girls into her lounge room. 'So…what are we going to do?' Rei asked slowly.
Kaiya raised an eyebrow. 'Dunno. I was meaning to ask though, ah, what was happening before?'
'Well…' Makoto stalled, looking quite embarrassed, 'nothing much really…'
Yaten looked at them. 'Nothing meaning?'
Taiki glanced at Seiya. 'Seiya?'
Seiya looked at the ground. 'It was just a bug…'
The girls looked at him. 'JUST A BUG! IT WAS HUGE!'
Kaiya sweat dropped. 'A bug…'
The girls were still yelling at Seiya and paid no attention.
Taiki and Yaten were laughing, rolling on the ground, as Kaiya stood.
She looked around, smiling evilly and placed her fingers to her lips, letting out an ear-splittingly loud whistle.
Taiki and Yaten jumped up. Makoto, Ami, Minako, Rei and Usagi all placed their hands over their ears and Seiya just looked relieved.
Kaiya's face held a smug look as she sat back down on the couch, crossing her legs and looking beautifully lady-like except for the mischievous look on her face.
'So. Now that we all are going to be paying attention…what are we going to do?'
After they had all helped make some snacks and ordered pizza, all the teens gathered around the dining table, waiting for the delivery to come. They killed time with a card game.
'What did you mean I cheated!? I didn't cheat!! How could you even think I'd do that?!' Minako was yelling.
The other girls sweat dropped as Yaten, Seiya and Taiki all tried in vain to stop their laughing.
Kaiya glanced at Minako. 'That is sort of the aim of the game…you know, Cheating is normal in cheat…I think you cheated that time so I'm just saying…'
'I DIDN'T CHEAT!!' Minako screamed.
Kaiya's eye fell towards the table. 'Right. You didn't cheat, how silly of me. Ummm…your turn Yaten!'
The other girls laughed as Minako glared at Kaiya, who had found something interesting on the table to stare at.
Ding Dong!
'I'll get it!' Kaiya yelled tearing away from the table and Minako's scary stare.
She bounded to the door as the other's continued to play. She straightened herself out before opening the door.
'Hello! How can I he – Oh. Ms. Kaiou. Sir…' Kaiya's eyes narrowed slightly at the sight of the man. The man didn't seem much more pleased to see her here either.
'Oh. Hello, Kaiya! We were looking for our friend Usagi's home. I hope we didn't get the wrong place…'
'Oh no, you didn't. She's right through here.' She said as she reluctantly tore her stare away from the blond haired man, leading them towards the lounge room.
'Haruka! What did you do to Kaiya? She seems really put out with you…' Michiru hissed.
'Not much…' Haruka stalled.
'Well she is usually overly pleasant towards everybody, like Usagi, but I dunno…what do you mean by not much?'
'Um…I accused her of breaking into the backstage area…' Haruka admitted slowly.
'You didn't see her with the Three Lights? She's been going everywhere with them. Yaten's girlfriend apparently, much to the disappointment of fans…'
'I was told that…' Haruka muttered, 'After I said it.'
They reached the lounge area in a stony silence after that.
'Hi Kaiya! Who was – Oh! Hello Haruka! Michiru! Why, may I ask, did you decide to drop in?' Usagi gushed.
Haruka looked away. 'The fan belt snapped in my car outside your place, so while we are waiting for the repair service we thought we'd drop in. Why is everyone else here?' She asked flatly, looking specifically at the Three Lights and Kaiya, Kaiya particularly fiercely.
Kaiya returned the stare flatly while answering. 'We thought we'd drop by because Usagi said her parent's were out tonight and there had been crime in the neighbourhood. We were just concerned about a friend.'
Michiru frowned slightly. 'You should have rung us, Usagi. Hotaru especially wants to see you; it would have given her a reason.'
Usagi looked uncomfortable at the obvious tension between the two and the Three Lights and Kaiya. 'Ummm I didn't think of it at the time and Seiya and the girl's said they would come…ahhhh…Do you want a cup of tea or anything? Yeah, I'm going to get us all a pot of tea.' Usagi babbled, rushing out of the room.
Makoto looked wearily after her. 'Usagi? Kitchen? This won't end well…I'm going to go help her.' She said slowly before exiting to the kitchen after Usagi.
'What's with Haruka and the Lights?' Rei whispered to the other girls.
'Well, apparently Haruka doesn't like men…' Minako whispered back.
Michiru leaned towards them to join in the conversation. 'Actually, she doesn't like popular men.' She whispered in a gossipy tone.
'Makes sense.' The girls all agreed.
'That does not make sense.' Haruka mumbled.
'She? That does make sense to me…' mumbled Kaiya.
'What's that supposed to mean?' Haruka said.
'Nothing much…that you need to know.' Kaiya replied.
Michiru and the girls looked wearily at Haruka, whose limited patience was obviously almost gone.
'Um…You reckon they are done with the tea yet?' Ami started mumbling.
Ding Dong!
'Gosh! How many more people can this house stand??' Rei exclaimed.
'I've got it!!' yelled Usagi rushing out of the kitchen like a mini tornado towards the door.
Makoto exited the kitchen not much later carrying a tray full of cups and biscuits towards the coffee table that sat in the middle of the lounge room.
'Oh!! Two minutes please!!' Screamed Usagi.
'It's a TV show!' she whispered fiercely, after arriving back in the lounge room.
'This isn't good…' muttered Kaiya.
'Definitely not…' sighed Taiki.
'I can see the headlines now…The Three Lights by Night! What are they doing in the houses of our young girls?' Yaten mumbled.
The three lights and Kaiya sighed dismally.
'Ok. Right. We need to hide!' Rei said. 'Usagi? You take Seiya! Ami? You take Yaten and Kaiya! I'll take Taiki. Minako? You get the door and Makoto? You can help hide Michiru and Haruka, ok? SPLIT!' she said loudly and the girls took of, pulling their surprised charges behind them.'
Ami dragged Yaten and Kaiya to the bathroom, hiding Yaten in the bamboo screened shower and pulling Kaiya under the cover of the bath with her.
After five minutes they heard Minako screaming.
'What is that?' Kaiya whispered.
'I dunno,' mumbled Ami, 'I'll go look. You guys stay here.' She said as she jumped out of the bath and ran out of the room.
'I think it might be our kind of problem, Yaten…' Kaiya said, now sitting on the edge of the bath.
'Yea,' he replied, 'Shall we?' he asked, offering Kaiya his hand.
'Certainly, sir.' Kaiya smirked.
'Healer Star power…MAKE UP!'
'Io's Moonstar Illumination…MAKE UP!'
Light's encased Yaten as he began his transformation the same time that Kaiya began jumping and twirling in between silver ribbons. In about a second Kaiya and Yaten were gone, and in their place stood Sailor Star Healer and Sailor Io's.
They turned and nodded at each other before leaping out the window and onto the roof, running to the dining room window.
Sailor Star Fighter and Sailor Star Maker were already there, listening to the chaos unfolding below.
'Took you guys long enough.' Fighter said as way of acknowledgment.
'Well,' Io's said with reason, 'Ami probably left after your friend's did…'
'True,' said Maker 'Shall we?' she said, gesturing towards the open window.
The Starlights nodded as Io's whispered. 'I'll join you in a minute.'
After a minute, Io's flew down and gracefully planted herself on the window ledge, before folding her wings behind her back.
The room was chaos.
Food and dishes were lying everywhere, as Minako struggled against the binding's holding her, the Starlights and several other sailor scouts were all squeezed into the tiny room facing the phage.
'You know, I might just wait out here,' Io's said, as way of showing she was there.
'And you are?' the waiter phage asked.
'I am a Planetary Moon Solider, bringer of Storms and Disasters! The Sailor Scout of Power, Sailor Io's!' she glanced at his platter and wine bottle. 'What's on the menu, monsieur?'
The phage seemed delighted someone had asked. 'Well, today's menu features a sea wine with pizza and a light toasted side platter.'
'Sounds enchanting! What may I ask is the side platter? It sounds so magnificent, if I do say so myself. You managed to turn pizza into something to celebrate, non?'
The Waiter phage was delighted for the conversation. 'Oui, Oui! I believe that the wine will particularly compliment the –
It continued to drone on and on with Sailor Io's supposedly paying attention. What it wasn't noticing was it's wine bottle growing hotter, and hotter because of Io's' minimal hand movements until…
'AIEEE!' he screamed, dropping his champagne bottle faster than a poisonous spider and causing it to shatter into a million pieces upon the floor.
Io's smirked and looked at the startled sailor's. 'What? You thought I was actually interested in how the wine complemented the pizza? I don't drink alcohol…'
The sailor's sweat dropped as they faced the phage who was nursing his injured hand. 'Well…glad to see someone was able to hurt that thing without wreaking m– I mean this person's house completely…' Sailor Moon mumbled.
Io's smiled. 'Yea, it would be horrible, I mean imagine this person's clean up job already!'
The inner scouts and Sailor Moon groaned. 'How horrible for them.' Sailor Jupiter whimpered.
Io's turned to Minako, and using a concentrated heat beam she cut straight through the bindings on Minako's wrists. 'Yea, so sorry about the wine, monsieur. We might have to try this again some other night. You wouldn't mind? I'm sure your selection will be amazing.' Io's said playfully, turning to the phage. 'Io's Blizzard Fire!' she whispered firing a small stream of icicles to the phage who took them all, hard.
She turned slowly. 'Hello? Sailor Moon? Io's to Moon come in!? Your up, mademoiselle.'
Star Healer turned to Io's. 'When did you learn to speak French?'
Io's winked at her. 'I wasn't really speaking French right now...But I did get an A+ when I learnt it at school!'
Minako sighed. 'A+?! I can't even get a C-…in Japanese!'
Sailor Io's turned as Sailor Moon finished healing the man. 'Maybe if you studied harder, Mon cher? I'll see ya round!' she called as she unfurled her wings and flew into the night.
'Wow…how can our exit match up to flying out the window?' Fighter muttered as the Starlights jumped for the window.
'Quick, Quick!" called Kaiya from the rooftop. 'We need to get into the hall, like we were coming to see what was taking so long or something.'
'Right.' The Lights nodded as they all slipped through a window and into the house.
'Hello?' called Kaiya. 'Where is everyone? Makoto? Rei? Ami? Ummm, anyone really would be great…'
Minako came out into the hallway. 'Oh my gosh! You guys missed it! The TV guy turned into some kind of monster and then Sailor Neptune and Sailor Uranus came and tried to get the people that created it! But they got away and the Sailor Moon and the Inner scouts except Sailor Venus got there and the phage kept sucking their attacks into some wine bottle. But then the Starlights came, but they just got in an argument with Uranus and Neptune. But then Sailor Io's came and she was so cool! I mean not only could she totally speak French but she managed to smash the bottle so she could attack the monster and weakened it enough so Sailor Moon could turn it back into a human! Io's has to be THE strongest scout!' Minako kept gushing as Kaiya assumed a smug look.
'But the dining room is a mess…' she finished. 'You think you guys could help us clean up?'
Kaiya glanced at the Lights. 'Well, as far as I know the Lights can stay, they have nothing else to do. But my mother is expecting me to drop in and say hi in…' Kaiya glanced at her watch. 'Oh my god, now! See you guys around!' she waved as she dashed out the door laughing.
'She is such a liar…' Yaten grumbled.
'No choice I suppose. Let's go guys…' Taiki sighed as they headed to the dining room.
Hehe. Kaiya is sort of evil. But I would have thought of an excuse too I suppose lol. The silly thing is, if you remember, she has no parents and lives with the lights lol I can't remember whether that was intentional or not but *smirk* and for the record…I don't REALLY study French…I think I did one year where all I really learnt where some simple stuff so if it's wrong forgive me. Plz. Any way same old same old. Review/Alert make me happy make me feel like I am wanted. Guys it only takes less then a minute to say if you like it or not and if you want me to continue, maybe even adding in some extra comments on my plot.
A/N: For the record, Chibi Chibi does not exist in the FF. She is not needed for reasons in later chapters.
