Reflections
A/N: Kamaria- Sailor Vesta, Arlene - Sailor Ceres, Chloe - Sailor Juno, and Aethel - Sailor Pallas
Kamaria and Aethel watched as Chloe and Arlene transformed. That was normal. What was was unusual was Aethel's gasp of surprise. Kamaria quickly grabbed her hensin stick and glanced around looking for the trouble. Then she noticed that Aethel was looking at her. Frowning slightly, Kamaria cast her a questioning look.
Aethel spoke with wonderment. "You have African eyes."
Kamaria's frown deepened. That hurt. She thought that old would was healed and all that was left was a tough scar. 'I don't!... African eyes are as rich as dark chocolate, as warm and soft as brown velvet, and as smooth and gentle as silk.'
Aethel watched with uncertainty as a hurt expression crossed over Kamaria's face and was then quickly hidden behind an ice cold mask. She knew she had to explain, and quickly.
"The gold and green from Juno's and Ceres' transformations; when they shone in your red eyes..." Kamaria face started to thaw as comprehension dawned. ".. your eyes had all three colors normally associated with Africa. Red for strength and power, green for health and life, and gold for wealth." Aethel searched her friend's eyes for a moment before continuing. "At least, that is what I always thought the colors meant."
Kamaria gazed at her friend as the old wound finally healed. Suddenly she noticed Aethel's uncertainty. Quirking her lips up on one side, she let her mask fall. "Blue, green, gold, and black. You would have had African eyes as well. Those are the colors of Tanzania's flag." She enjoyed Aethel's surprised expression.
