Chapter Six
I'm finally getting around to posting
chapter six. I decided that I'm going to post all of my story on the net because
I know I have no chance of it being published. I decided that I'm going to write
another fanfic instead, and possibly have that published. I don't know what it's
going to be about yet or anything like that, but I really want to get published
somehow. What do you think? Am I good enough to get published? Eh, probably not.
But I'm working on my writing skills! Okay?
When I get some more reviews, like two
or something, then I'll post the next chapter. But remember, you have to review.
;D ~Kakyuu Hime
I
forgot to mention earlier that I have a picture of MY Sailor Chaos and Brooke. I
don't have one of Jason yet (grr), and I'm hoping I could get that soon. The one
of Sailor Chaos was NOT made by me, but someone made if specifically for me.
Brooke was made by me using a certain program.

Chapter
Six
Stumbling
Brooke
couldn't see where she was going, stumbling as she tried walked down the
street. Is this the right street to my
house? Ugh! She stopped, holding her head in her hands, using her thumbs to
push on her temples. This pain is
unbearable! Why won't it just go away!? She continued to walk down the street to her home,
holding onto the what ever she could find to keep her balance. I
can't take this pain! She sat down against a wooden fence. Pulling her
knees to her chest, she buried her face in her legs. The palms of her hands were
still pushing on her head, trying to squeeze out the pain. I
have to make it home or else I might not make it though the night. She stood
up, nearly falling over as she did. She tried to grab onto the fence but her
hand slid down the side of it, putting tons of splinters into it. "Oww!" She
looked at her hand. She couldn't see clearly enough to make out what was
dripping down her arm. She used her other hand to wipe of some of the substance
onto her index finger and licked it. "Blood…" She continued to slowly
stumble down the street. She reached the end of a block and stopped at the
intersection of four empty streets. Which
way do I go? Straight…no wait…right…or is it left? Am I even going the
right way? Brooke you stupid! You don't even know the way to your own house!
It's left… She looked across the street warily; the buildings were
swaying. She looked down at the ground; the cracks in the sidewalk were moving
also. This is nuts! I need energy and I need it fast. But if I transform back
into Sailor Chaos, I won't have any energy left to move! What am I going to
do?
Just walk to your house. I know you'll make it. I'll
protect you. Sailor Chaos said to Brooke in her mind.
How? Brooke asked her other self. I can't even see where I'm going. Brooke sighed and started
slowly across the street. Step by step, Brooke was growing weaker and weaker.
She was losing her sense of hearing and vision. She swayed as she slowly walked
across the street. Halfway there…I can
do this.
"Brooke!
Watch out!" Jason screamed.
A
car was zooming down the street but Brooke didn't notice. She finally saw the
bright headlights from the corner of her eyes and turned herself to see the car.
"AHH!" she shrieked.
"BROOKE!"
Jason ran as fast as he could, diving for Brooke. She fell to the ground, Jason
falling right next to her. The car just barely missed both of them. "Are you
alright?" Jason asked, lifting his head to look over at Brooke.
She
put her hands on her head again lifting it slightly and putting it back on the
ground. "Oh, my head." Brooke groaned.
"Let
me take a look at it." Jason gently removed her hands from her head, lifting
it slightly. He stroked through her hair softly, feeling something wet. He
lifted his hands away, seeing blood on them. "You have a cut on the back of
your head."
"Oh…"
Brooke said blankly, and then fainted.

"Ohh…"
Brooke groaned. She finally regained consciousness. She sat up in bed, slightly
opening her eyes to look around the room she was in. Where am I? What happened? The room was a complete disaster; clothes
were spread all over the floor and hanging out the dresser, old sandwiches were
on the nightstand, papers were spread all over the desk, you could barely see
the carpet…if there was any at all. Well I can tell I'm not at my house, that's for sure. Ahh! Pain
returned to Brooke's head. She leaned forward, using the palms of her hands
once again to try to pressure out the pain.
Loud
snoring came from another room. Brooke slowly stood up, holding onto the
nightstand for balance. She grabbed onto anything to hold herself up since her
energy wasn't fully restored yet. She inched through the messy room, reaching
the door and opening it quietly, looking out into the other room. It wasn't
much cleaner than the one she was in now. She glanced around, trying to pinpoint
where the snoring was coming from. She walked into the room, holding onto the
door as she did. She closed the door quietly behind her, taking a step away from
the door. She swayed a bit, but she caught her balance. She tiptoed through the
room over toward the couch. She sat herself quietly on the floor next to it,
looking at Jason as she did. He's so
cute when he's sleeping…sure does snore loud enough! She giggled
quietly. I must have fainted and he
brought me here, since he doesn't know where I live. What a sweetie…She
brushed a stand of hair out of his eyes. The
only problem when he's sleeping is that I can't see his beautiful eyes.
She sighed. Jason breathed in, turning onto his other side away from her, still
snoring loudly. She got up, looking down at him. She turning herself and walked
away from the couch.
"Brooke…no,
don't. Watch out." Jason mumbled in his sleep. Brooke turned to look at him,
then continued to walk back toward his bedroom. She opened the door, looking
around for her shoes. She couldn't find them anywhere in the mess, so she just
gave up and exited the room again. She walked into the kitchen, looking for food
to help replenish the energy she needed to get home. She found a bag of fresh apples on the counter. She ripped the bag open,
taking the two biggest, juiciest red apples. She began to eat one as she walked
across the apartment toward the front door. She slowly opened the door so it
wouldn't disturb Jason. The door made a small squeak, making her look quickly
at him to see if he woke up. He lied still on the couch, still snoring loudly. What
am I so worried about? His snoring is louder than a rock concert. Brooke
opened the door the rest of the way, walking out of the apartment. She closed
the door quietly behind her.
Jason
yawned and rolled onto his back, rubbing his eyes. "Huh? Who's there?"

Brooke
slowly walked down the busy street in her torn dress, gnawing on an apple. The
other apple was in her other hand. People stared at her and gave her strange
looks as she passed them. She didn't pay any attention to anyone though; she
was too busy in her dream world. She was also trying to figure out what happened
the night before. Let me think. I remember
that one guy stealing my energy…then Jason showed up and saved me. Haruka
actually stepped in too. Hmm…I thought she didn't like me. Oh well, back to
what I was doing. What was I doing? She stopped, looking around the area.
She took another bite into her apple then started walking again. OK,
so then what happened? Jason carried me out of the restaurant; then I told him
to sit me down. That's when I ran off and he came chasing after me. Brooke's
memory was replying everything that had happened in her mind. Ok,
then I hid in the bushes and turned into Sailor Chaos. But how was I able to do
that with almost all my energy stolen? I must have absorbed some of Jason's
energy. But that's not possible. He was running pretty fast after me. Hmm…She
barely missed tripping over a small little boy.
"Hey
lady! Watch where you're going!" He said rudely to her.
"Oh,
sorry." Brooke continued on her way home. The boy looked strangely at her.

"Have
you guys heard anything from Brooke today?" Usagi looked at everyone with
worried eyes. Everyone was gathered at Rei's temple to discuss the event that
happened the night before. They all shook their heads.
"I
wonder if she got home okay." Rei said.
"I
tried calling her earlier but her dad said she hasn't been home all night."
Usagi sat down on the steps.
"I
think the Dark Kingdom may be after her." Luna said. "She could be in some
real danger."
"How
do we know she isn't the danger?" Haruka spoke up. "She could have been
the one who brought back the Dark Kingdom and they are using her to get to
us."
"You
worry too much, Haruka." Michiru joked. "I'm sure she's a good kid."
"Then
why is it that every time we are around her we feel something evil?" Haruka
argued. "She must have something in her that we can't see."
"I
think we all need to just calm down and get to know Brooke better." Mamoru
jumped in.
"Michiru-mama
and Usagi are right," Hotaru commented. "Remember how you thought I was
evil? I'm sure if she does have evil in her heart she has good in it too."
"I
don't know you guys," Rei said. "I have to agree with Haruka on this one.
It seems like every time we are around or near Brooke something bad happens."
"We
need to find out more about Brooke before we jump to conclusions," Usagi stood
up. "Besides, you guys have only been around her two times. I've been around
her four times, and those two times that all of you weren't there nothing went
wrong."
"Well
said Usagi," Michiru said.
"Yeah,
it's like you actually have your brain turned on today." Rei complimented.

Brooke
walked into her house though the back door in her kitchen, just finishing the
second apple. She threw away the core than ran upstairs to her room, closing her
door behind her. She walked into her bathroom, rummaging through her medicine
cabinet. Where are they? I know they are
here. Oh! Here they are! She grabbed an orange tube with blue pills in it.
She opened the top, taking out one of the pills. She grabbed a class of her sink
and filled it with water. She put the pill in her mouth, using the water to wash
it down. Much better! Brooke started
to jump up and down, running around her room. By taking the pill, her energy
boosted instantly. Brooke's father knocked on her bedroom door.
"Brooke?
Are you home now?"
"Yeah
Dad, I'm here." She hurried to hide her pills in a stash of make-up.
Her
father walked into her room. "Where are you?"
"In
the bathroom Dad." He walked into her bathroom glaring at her.
"Where
on earth have you been all night? I was worried sick and you know that your
curfew is at twelve."
"I
know Dad. When I was coming home from dinner I fainted so my friend took me to
their house since they didn't know where I lived."
"Well
alright," her dad said sympathetically. "Just next time, call me."
"Alright
Dad." She hugged her father and he left the room.
Boy, that was a close one. If
he had known I went to a GUY'S house he would have killed me!
