"Okay," he muttered to himself, "I have to find a way out
of here."
'Easier said than done.' Looking around the room he was
held captive in, Mamoru could see nothing but solid cement
walls. There was a small window at the top, but there was
no way his broad shoulders would be able to get through
that. There was, also, the door, but unless someone would
open it...and the only person who had opened it, to his
knowledge, was 'Serena'.
His heart leaped at the thought of her. She was quite a
sight. Clear, sky blue eyes, pink pouty lips, pale
porcelain skin, a frail but strong figure...he shook his
head at his pensiveness. She was an Amazon. He couldn't be
thinking of her in such good terms. But yet...
He couldn't help but think back to the time when one of his
closest friends had told him that it was prophesied that he
was soulbound with someone from the enmity. He and his
group of friends had laughed, and that night, he had vowed
to them, but more to himself, that he would never fall in
love, nonetheless with an enemy, not like his father's last
adviser. He had hid it well, but when he had tried to make
contact with the Amazon again, he was caught and killed
instantly without a second thought.
But gods...the way he was acting now, he wouldn't put it
past himself to be in love with that siren. She was
gentle, beautiful, and there was something about her that
made him believe she really didn't belong in the Amazons.
But, paradoxically enough, while she undoubtedly had an
undaunted innocence, her tattoo had revealed her to be an
Amazon. And not only an Amazon, he realised when thinking
back, it also boldly stated her position in the Feared
Five.
"Yo!" He was shook from his reverie by the whisper.
"Mamoru! Up here!"
When he lifted his dark head to see a face staring at him
from the window up above, he couldn't help but break into a
broad grin. "Jed!"
"Yo guy, watch out, cause here I come!" Taking out the
glass pane of the window, the lithe blonde jumped into the
chamber with ease, landing smoothly on his feet. "See, if
you had cut back on chocolate like I had told you to, you
wouldn't have been to fat to climb up through the window."
Mamoru laughed. Gods, it felt good to laugh; he had been
pent up here for so long with worry, he thought he would go
insane. "I TOLD you guys to let me come with you, but
noooo..." In a mocking voice, Jed continued, "No Jed, you
can't come! Blahblahblah! You're sick! Blahblahblah!" Back
to his normal tone of voice, he finished, "But if I had
come...I would've prevented..gods, I could've prevented so
much from happening, and..."
"Don't say that Jed. If you had come, you would've died
too." Mamoru brushed off the choking sense that came to
him when he reached the word 'died'. "I was lucky I got out
alive."
"Yeah, I see they did some bandaging job on you. I'm
surprised they put you under such minimal securit-"
Jed was cut off by the sound of the door lock opening.
"Shimatta! Come on, ikuyo!" (AN: Japanese for 'Let's go!')
"Not so fast, boys." Mamoru had expected 'Serena', but he
was not so lucky. A dark cloaked figure, flanked with two
armed women on each side walked into the room. "Ah, so not
only do we have Chiba's son here, we also have his best
friend's son as well. Oh, how perfectly things are turning
out to be!" Her voice went to an unnaturally excited
pitch.
Shuddering, Jed reached for his gun. Before he could even
get to it though, one of the girls had backflipped to his
side and held a knife to his jugular. "Wow," he commented
sardonically, "Nice."
Smiling bittersweetly, the brunette gave a cynical
"Thanks". Hurried footsteps from down the hall caught
everyone's attention. The sight of two flying blonde
pigtails made Mamoru's heart beat quicker with...hope? He unconciously made a move towards the door, but was quickly stopped by a sharp slap from the Leader.
"Ah, Usagi-chan..." He knew it! Her name *wasn't* Serena!
"So good of you to join us. I must congratulate you on
your excellent capture."
Mamoru could see her eyes were puffy from crying,
but..crying from what? The sight of her puffy eyes opening
wide was quite amusing, but what she said next wasn't.
"Leader!" Almost gasping, she went down immediately to her
knees. "I didn't know you would be here!"
"Hai, Usagi...but next time, when you nab someone as
*important*," she stressed the word mockingly, "person like
Chiba Mamoru here, do please put him under heavier
security." Snapping her fingers, the girls all paid closer
attention. "Bring the blonde one to the next room, and two
of you, Candy, Monica, stand here on guard. You other two,
guard the blonde."
Mamoru couldn't help but notice Usagi's lack of surprise at
the name 'Chiba Mamoru'. So she had found out on her
own...surprise, surprise.
The quiet tinkling of Usagi's voice brought him back to
reality. "Excuse me, Leader..." Obvious awe was shown
from the other girls at her boldness in speaking to the
Leader. "Might I stay for a second...I'd like to speak to
Chiba-san."
With narrowed eyes, the dark figure nodded her assent
before leaving.
