story.
*Terra Knight/ Michael/ Prince Orion of Earth: Michael is Darien's younger brother in this life and the last. He was seperated from Darien soon after his parents car crash. They were sent to different orphanages, but Michael found out about his older brother andon his eighteenth birthday began the search for his only family. He has been with the team for about seven months. He is also Prince Orion, Prince Endymion's younger brother. There are always two Earth princes. THe eldest is born with blue features to represent the largest part of the earth, the ocean. THe youngest is born with green features to represent land. His warrior form is Terran Knight.*
Michael turned over in his bed to the sound of his communicator buzzing. He leapt for his bedside table and groggily answered. " What?" he questioned of his older brother. Darien would have smiled at his younger brothers disheveled appearence if it hadn't been so urgent.
" We've got another youma, at Juuban Park. Move it bro." Darien looked as if he was about to turn the communicator off when," Oh, and bro," Michael looked at him expectantly," Sailor Moon's sister showed up about five minutes ago, you better hurry if you want any action." Michael gave his brother a confused look, then realized who he was talking about. He stumbled out of bed as he reached for his Terra pendant.
" I'm already there, Darien." the now transformed Terra Knight informed Tuxedo Mask.
Terra Knight showed up just in time to watch the dark sailor sail through the sky and land on her back. He moved to help her when she pushed herself up and wileded her sword in the direction of the youma.
The youma itself was a large dragon shaped creature that breathed not fire, but sharp objects. Just as the dragon youma reared back to shoot another barrage of sharp objects Sailor Moon took aim and struck it just inside the jaw. It managed to spit out a few more projectiles before it turned to dust. Tuxedo Mask did his usual check, he counted seven healthy warriors, including his own person. He sighed a breath of relief when he heard a gasp of pain. Sailor Eclipse was struggling to her feet when she doubled over in intense pain. Through her left side protruded one of the youmas sharp metal objects. The scouts and his brother were moving towards her whenshe placed both hands on the projectile and wrenched it from her gut. Blood came pouring from the wound but she calmly placed her hands over it. It disturbed Sailor Mars greatly to see the red liquid slipping through her gloved fingers, but suddenly a low murmer in a language she didn't quite understand came from the wounded figure and a dark blue light surrounded the wound and the tissue began repairing itself before her eyes. When the wound was completely healed the mysterious warrior raised her silver eyes to the group of obviously concerned super heroes. Amy stepped forward and reached out to her, offering assistance. The dark warrior held up a gloved hand." I'll be fine. Thank you for your concern." Amy dropped her hand but didn't move away.
"That was amazing. Truly amazing. How did you do that?" the ever curious scout inquired, obviously awestruck.
Eclipse smiled," You haven;t figured it out yet? I'm sure the answer is in there." she replied, nodding to Mercury's compact. Mercury nodded, agreeing with the observation. Sailor Eclipse then picked her sword up from the ground and placed it in her scabbard. Before she could turn away, much to everyone's surprise, Terra Knights armored hand shot out to grab her arm. Dark green eyes warred with misty gray. He nodded slowly and released her arm, as if reaching an understanding something without words. She then turned and disappeared into the night.
******** The Next Day *****************
(Aritajo Gym)
The scouts were watching the two Earth warriors spar in the ring. While Darien was stronger, Michael was more agile, thier fighting skills were closely matched. Soon enough the two brothers fell into two tired heaps, exhausted from their rigorous training. They dragged themselves from the ring and the scouts went back to training. Mina and Raye gymnastics, Ami and Serena took over a sparring ring, and Lita went to do some strength training. They continued for about fifteen minutes when a tall, handsome man strode towards the elevated ring that Darien and Michael had previously occupied. He was about 6'2 with jet black hair, somewhat spiky hair and green eyes. The scouts stopped thier activity and stared at the entracing man while he wrapped tape around his hands. Lita walked up to him boldly. "Need a sparring partner?" he smiled, dazzling her with impossibly white teeth.
"Thanks but I'm waiting for a friend" he replied in a voice that was obviously not meant to discourage her from staying around. She nodded, understanding and turned around to sit with Darien and Michael. The other scouts soon joined her, including Serena, who was staring at the green-eyed man intently. Michael muffled his laughter as Darien grumbled to himself.
After about ten minutes the young man was obviously exasperated. He turned in the ring towards the Women's Locker Room. " Maeve, if you don't get your butt out here I'll drag it out!" He turned back to the group and smiled apologetically. Soon enough a young women, of about seventeen strided from the locker room. Hardly looking embarassed she grabbed the top rope of the ring and swung herself over it. She turned to stare at her friend, glancing briefly at the audience he always managed to attract.
"Gabriel, really. You don't need to holler at me like it's dinner time. It's your own fault. I spent the last five minutes looking for the tape, but once again it was missing from my bag." she stated pointedly. The young man's eyebrows lifted slightly and he threw the tape to her with a surprisingly strong throw. On her way to sitting down on a stool she reached up and caught it without even looking up. Serena was observing all of this with an amused smile when she turned to look at the only two men in her company. Both of them were staring at the obviously beautiful girl with intent expressions. It was now Serena's turn to grumble, but she had to admit, as she turned back t the ring, that she was indeed beautiful. The girl wasn't very tall, about 5'3. She had dark grey eyes and wavy brown hair, the kind of wavy brown hair that looks like she just walked off the beach To match her beach hair she had beach skin, tan and golden as it comes. She also had great definition inher arms and legs, probably all over her body. Serena thought with a twinge of envy. The girl stood up sharply and beckoned to Gabriel. He nodded and advanced forward. Maeve took the first offensive by striking at his lower abdomen. Gabriel managed to get the least of the blow by twisting sideways while at the same time swinging his fist around back. Maeve managed to duck and drop to the ground to sweep his feet in one graceful movement. Gabriel fell to the ground and Maeve moved over his prone form to pin him, however just as she pounced on his body he brought his feet up so that they encircled her shoulders and threw her backward. He then stood up and prepared to bring his foot slamming into her abdomen when she rolled sideways onto her back, put her hands on the side of her head, rocked her legs above her shoulders and pushed herself up in time to recieve a blow to the stomach from Gabriel's anticipating fist. Expecting the match to be over everyone stood up to check on her. However, shaking off a blow that should have taken her out for a good half an hour, she stood up and launched another offensive. Bringing her left leg up for what looked to be a blow to the knees she then actually managed to use that movement for momentum and brought her right leg up for a kick to Gabriel's prone upper chest. The blow knocked him back to the ropes and Maeve landed gracefully on both of her previously airborne feet. She watched Gabriel with a single arched eyebrow. He studied her form for a moment then put his palms facing her. She immediatly relaxed her tense stance and smiled warmly at him. While Maeve was beautiful without it her smile intensified her graceful beauty as her eyes turned a light silvery gray. Gabriel smiled back at her, eyes twinkling, and put his arm around her shoulder and walked her to the side of the ring where their audience was waiting. "Maeve, I'd like you to meet my new friend." he looked down at Lita for a second. Lita realized she hadn't told him her name.
"Lita." she supplied. He then looked around her and she supplied her friends names." and this is Raye, Amy, Mina, Michael, Darien, and Serena." Gabriel noticed a certain reverence when she said the last two names. He glanced at Maeve who was staring intently at the person whom Lita had introduced as Michael, the latter returning the stare.
Gabriel decided to think about this later," It's nice to meet you. My name is Gabriel and this is my charge, Maeve." Maeve turned to Gabriel when he said her name then, realizing he had introduced her she turned to the large group. " Yes, very pleased to meet all of you." This time her gaze fell to the entire group and then rested on Darien and Serena. The royal couple returned her gaze, but she soon returned her gaze to the group. Mina piped up, breaking the silence.
" Would you two like to join us for lunch at the Crown Arcade?" Gabriel smiled warmly at the bubbly girl and turned to Maeve. She nodded her consent.
" Absolutely Mina. We'd love to." he replied. The group then split into three guys and six girls as they headed to their respective locker rooms.
********** Men's Locker Room******************
Once entering Darien turned to the friendly, yet serious Gabriel, though hardly as serious as Maeve, "How long have you been in Tokyo?"
" Maeve and I moved here about two weeks ago. We live in the Takachi apartment complex." he replied.
Darien nodded," I know where that is, not too far from Serena's house."
Gabriel smirked suggestively," The pretty blonde with the pigtails? She your girlfriend?"
"Is it that obvious?"
Michael chose that moment to speak up, "Absolutely." he then turned to Gabriel," you'll have to excuse my brother. He's in love."
Michael and Gabriel laughed at Darien's flushed face as Michael dodged a dirty sock. Michael's face then turned serious." You know, now that I think about it before you called Maeve your charge back in the gym and you just said that the two of you moved to Tokyo together, but you look too young to be her father."
Gabriel nodded." Yes, I'm only five years older than Maeve. I'm her cousin, however as soon as I turned eighteen she was put in my custody. We've been together ever since."
Darien slapped the two men on the back." Well, we'll save our life stories for later. The Girl's are probably waiting for us." The three men walked out of the locker room companionably."
******* Women's Locker Room************
The six girls walked into the locker room, five of them laughing and joking around. Maeve headed for her locker and opened it. Raye, not letting the mysterious girl avoid them, walked up to her and grabbed her stuff from her locker. She then proceeded to place them in the locker next to hers. Maeve looked at the bold girl bewildered. Raye then returned to her side, grabbed her arm, and led her to thier group. " It's not like you can just ignore us now that we're friends, besides, you have to tell us about that hunky Gabriel." Maeve continued to look confused, but after a bit more prodding she gave them the down low.
" I live with Gabriel, we just moved to Tokyo together about two weeks ago. We've been together about five years now. Besides I hardly think of him as 'hunky'." she replied, a smile dancing on her lips as the girls looked at her disbelievingly, " After all, he IS my cousin." The girls breathed a collective sigh of relief, all of them except Serena. Maeve turned to her locker.
" Of course that wouldn't matter to you, Serena, isn't it? You've got an extremely handsome boyfriend already. If you ask me Darien's quite the catch." Serena blushed deeply, knowing that it was beyond obvious.
Mina chose that moment to remind them that the others were probably waiting for them. They finished getting ready and headed for the door.
*********** In front of the Crown Arcade**************
Serena, Amy. Mina, Lita, Raye and Michael got out of Michaels black convertible while Darien, Gabriel, and Maeve got off their motorcycles. As the trio headed towards the sextet they were talking about motorbikes. Then the nine of them walked into the air-conditioned Arcade. Serena then loudly declared to Andrew that they needed the largest booth. At this Andrew laughed, because she was stating the obvious. He helped Darien push two tables together and began taking their orders as soon they sat down. After a round of "the usual" 's from his regular customers he turned to Gabriel who ordered a cheeseburger and fries. He then turned his attention to Maeve for the first time and stopped dead. His obvious admiration of the gray-eyed girl was driving Michael up the wall, for reasons he couldn't identify. Andrew finally managed to ask her what she wanted. " I'd like a double cheeseburger, large fries, and a large chocolate milkshake." she replied.
Andrew laughed outloud, pointed a finger at Maeve then at Serena, then the whole table burst out in giggles. Except for the very confused Gabriel and Maeve. Amy put her hand on Maeve's arm, " It's just that Serena manages to put away that much food in her black hole of a stomacn and it's been a long standing joke. The fact that you do the same was just oddly coincidental in a more than humorous fashion. We didn't mean to embarass you." she explained apologetically.
Maeve smiled at the blue-haired girl, " It's okay. I'm not embarassed. I've always eaten a lot of food too."
Gabriel then snorted loudly, drawing everyone's attention, " That's the understatement of the year, when you first came to live with me you ate me out of house and home! I couldn't understand where all my food went!" he joked, evoking another fit of laughter from everyone in the group except his cousin, who punched him soundly in the arm.
"Maybe I ate like a pig, but I'm a growing girl. What's your excuse for living like one?" she smiled sweetly. He scowled playfully at her as the table erupted into another fit of laughter.
" Sounds like you and Michael are two of a kind. I actually have to make him clean up his room." Michael frowned at his elder brother as the laughter turned in his direction. But as soon as his eyes locked with silvery gray the laughter drowned out. Maeve continued her gaze until a plate of food was set in front of her. She then smiled graciously at a blushing Andrew and began to eat. After dinner conversation turned to shopping plans for the girls and golfing plans for the guys. They said goodnight and Maeve and Gabriel zoomed off on thier Kawasaki's.
