Hana sighed as she glanced at the clock, really sick of watching the childish shows that Hotaru insisted to watch.
When is those two going to get here? I really don't want to watch kiddie programs all morning!
Hana thought with a sigh, causing Haruka to glance at her knowingly before she smiled and stood
"hey sis, want to go for a spin with me? Michiru's playing violin again and I know I can't blackmail her to come with me." Haruka stated as she grabbed her car keys.
"Sure, Those two yahoo's wont be here until later anyway." Hana retorted as she got off the couch and followed her sister outside.
Once outside Haruka let out a chuckle and glanced at her sister and smirked.
"I'm sorry but that was not something I wanted to see." Hana grumbled as she got into the passenger seat and Haruka laughed.
"Tell me about it, I don't want to see a little super powered thing that shoots fire out of its nose." Haruka retorted as she pulled out.
"I think that was a pig...I have no idea." Hana retorted as she closed her eyes as she felt the wind whip around her.
As they drove they talked about everything.
"So do you like Yoru?" the butch asked, a playful look on her face as she watched her sister blush crimson.
"Shut up! I do not!" Hana retorted as she turned her attention away from her sister.
"Oh come on, he kissed you before you left ball practice the other day!" the Tomboy teased, earning a glare from the thirteen year old.
"So what if he did?" came the sharp reply though it only caused Haruka to laugh more.
"Don't get all offensive! I'm glad you found someone." the seventeen year old stated, laughter still bubbling up inside of her.
"Thanks...I think, but seriously don't make a big deal about it okay?" Hana replied, feeling a little awkward talking about this with her sister.
"Sure thing." Haruka retorted then added "Mom and Dad tried to make you like the guys they picked out for you didn't they?"
Hana nodded with a sigh, she wanted to forget all about what her parents would say and do to her over all of this, and over the fear that their other daughter would be a disgrace.
"I'm just glad that I can be myself around you and your family." Hana replied, though Haruka could easily tell that she still missed their parents somewhat.
"Hana, it doesn't matter what you ever do, I will always love you." The tomboy replied softly, taking her little sisters hand.
They drove for a few more hours until finally heading for home.
"You're friends will be here any minute." the short haired blond stated as they pulled into the driveway.
"Good, Maybe I can dodge the kiddie stuff for a while." Hana whispered, causing Haruka to laugh.
"How do you think I felt when we where younger?" she retorted as they walked through the door only to find that their guest where already there.
"Hey Hana! Lets go upstairs, I'm a little tired of watching these two play candy land." the redheaded preteen whispered and the thirteen year old laughed as she and the other girl dashed upstairs.
Once the two where out of sight Vesves glanced at Hana and smirked.
"is it ready?" she asked and the blond nodded.
"Yeah, just wait until after dinner so that we can catch Ruka in the living room by herself." Hana answered and the beast tamer smirked.
"Doesn't your sister have a basketball goal outside?" Vesves asked and the other girl nodded.
"why don't we go out there and play for a while? Make miss bossy not expect anything." the redhead suggested and Hana shrugged. after all it didn't really matter to her, as long as they didn't have to play some childish game with Hotaru.
After an hour or two though Michiru appeared outside, watching them intently.
"Girls, go wash up...dinner is almost ready." the aqua haired woman called as she sent Hana a knowing look.
"Okay Michiru-Chan!" Hana called back before turning back toward her new friend.
"lets go, the sooner we eat the sooner we can trick my idiot sister." she added as they both shared a look and rushed inside.
During dinner they had to refrain from laughing at Haruka, who managed to somehow spill her tea all over her lap, though they lost that battle and wound up nearly toppling onto the floor.
"Very funny you guys, I know I looked like I peed myself." Haruka grumbled as she walked back into the kitchen once she had changed clothing.
"Sorry sis, but your reaction was stupid." Hana retorted, earning a pouty glare from her sister.
"Okay enough teasing your sister. Why don't you kids go upstairs and find something to do?" Michiru suggested, winking at the younger girl.
"Sure Michi, Lets go guys." Hana retorted as she put her plate in the sink and rushed upstairs, followed by the other kids.
Once upstairs they practically swore Hotaru to secrecy about what they where about to do.
"But that's mean!" the little dark haired girl stated, however Chibi Usa was able to convince her that it was just a prank.
"Oh come on, we don't have time to deal with a little pipsqueak who doesn't have enough guts to even trick someone!" Vesves stated as she walked into the thirteen year old's bedroom.
Hana sighed and glanced at her visibly hurt niece and whispered
"She's like that to everyone just ignore her."
Hotaru however felt more left out than ever, and without even a last glance toward the others she turned on her heel and dashed out toward her room.
"What was that about?" Vesves asked, not realizing that what she had said had offended the girl.
"I think it was caused by what you said Vesta." Chibi Usa replied and the redhead sighed.
"Geez I didn't mean to hurt her feelings. What is up with little kids and being sensitive!" She groaned, causing Hana to chuckle slightly.
"I'll go keep her company, you two go pull the prank." the pink haired girl stated as she followed after her best friend and Hana sighed.
"Ves, you're really going to have to learn to control what you say." Hana stated as she got the backpack containing the remote controlled mouse out and handed the remote to the other girl.
"You can do the honors, Don't worry I'll take the heat if Sis becomes too mad." Hana explained as they crept toward the living room where Haruka was sitting on the couch, watching some sort of romantic film.
However when Vesves made the toy rodent zip out in front of the couch a loud shriek filled the air, a bowl of popcorn flew through the air, landed on top of a house plant that turned over and spilling potting soil everywhere and Haruka leaped unto the back of the couch screaming.
"What on earth?" Setsuna demanded as she walked into the room, however when she saw the mouse she only smirked and walked back out of the room.
"Sets! Don't leave me in here with that thing!" the blond yelled, near tears.
Hotaru walked in then and silently walked over to the electronic animal before kicking it across the room before walking out.
Hana sighed as she watched as her sister walked over to the toy and examine it closely before she picked it up and walked toward the stars, and where the two girls where hiding.
