Chapter Fourteen: Search for your love.
It was an ordinary day at school for Seiya, and he walked home with Yaten and Taiki. They decided not to drive anymore, because it gave them more time to talk before returning home, where upon returning, they would immediately be badgered by their manager about their next show.
"Then Luna couldn't get it off her nose!" Yaten squealed, laughing wildly. Taiki laughed, as well. Seiya stared into space thinking about Usagi... his Odango, his true princess.
"Ahh!"
The scream disrupted Seiya's thoughts.
The three Starlights nodded to one another, ducking into an alley.
"Fighter Eternal Star Power!"
"Maker Eternal Star Power!"
"Healer Eternal Star Power!"
"Make up!" They said in unison.
Once they were transformed, they ran down the street. They found several unconscious bodies, but no monster.
"Where on Earth?" Maker asked.
"Fighter, watch out!" Healer yelled.
"Oof." Fighter grunted as she was thrown back by a strong blast.
Fighter stood up, relatively unharmed, ponytail cascading down her shoulder. They looked around. Why couldn't they find it? Healer screamed. They turned around and saw her being lifted up by the monster. Within seconds her energy drained to the point where her transformation sequence was undone, leaving her as plain old Yaten. Then she went limp. The monster tossed her aside like a rag doll, but Maker caught her.
"Star Serious Laser!"
Fighter was amazed at how much more powerful her attack was, thanks to the power up and the silver crystal. The monster was flung back at least eighty feet into a wall.
"Star Gentle Uterus!"
"Star Serious Laser!"
The monster turned to dust and dissipated, returning all of the energy it had gathered to it's victims. Yaten's eyes fluttered open.
"Oh?" She said weakly before becoming male again.
"You'll be okay." Star Maker promised as she and Seiya both became boys again. They helped Yaten walk the rest of the way home.
Once they were home, Seiya began pacing back and forth. Taiki and Yaten watched him worriedly. Finally, he spoke.
"We need to do another concert." Seiya said pacing back and forth.
"When? Where?" Yaten asked with an aspirin in hand to dull his headache.
"Tonight. But it has to be where she can hear us." Seiya answered.
"For her to hear us, we need to be fairly close." Maker observed.
"We have no idea where she even is." Yaten piped in.
"Think about it." Seiya suggested.
"Umm...I am." Yaten said, sarcastically.
"Beryl would want a desolate area.." Seiya suggested.
"Which means?" Yaten asked irritatedly.
"Remember when we went camping?" Taiki suggested.
"Exactly. Let's hold a concert there." Seiya said jumping up.
"But, how will people know about it?" Yaten asked skeptically.
"Leave that to me, Taiki call our manager." Seiya instructed.
"Of course." Taiki agreed.
"Yaten, would you be so kind as to call the fanclub and have them set up the place?" Seiya asked.
"Why the fanclub?"
"They'll do it for free as long as they can watch us."
"Alright.." Yaten said with a sigh.
That evening:
Search for you love
Search for your love
Odango! Where are you? I'm looking for you!
You have always been shining so brightly
Your smile is like a small star
Usagi! I miss your bright shine and sweet smile!
Dark Kingdom:
Usagi was dozing off when she thought she heard something. She shook her head. She still heard it. She got as close to the window as her chains would let her. Faintly, she heard "Princess!"
"Could it be...Seiya's looking for me?" She wondered out loud.
"Answer me!"
I'm here...Seiya please don't leave me here!
Seiya nearly forgot his lines when he felt her. So distant, but she had heard him. He sang louder, pouring his emotions into his song.
"Answer me!"
She could hear it better this time, she closed her eyes. She could see him, singing, crying.
I'm here! She told him.
Where?
"Running through the distant night sky,"
I'm not going to give up! Tell me, where are you?
I'm not sure, it's so dark. She told him.
"Now I make a wish on a distant shooting star."
I need to find you, what direction are we from you?
I really don't know...I'm sorry she started to cry.
"Whispering 'I want to be with you'."
I've missed you so much
Seiya, I love you!
"As time passes by we become adults."
After the show, I'll find you.
"I've finally realized that,"
I'll walk around singing, just for you
How will I hear you, without speakers and a microphone?
"The broken pieces are not enough."
I'll find you...tonight.
"Search for your love."
I'll be searching for you.
"Search for your love."
I'll never give up.
