Mikka stepped off the bus, and stood in front of the temple. She walked
up the steps, and when she reached to top, she looked around.
"Can I help you?" Someone behind her asked.
Mikka whirled around, and regarded the girl.
"Um, yeah." Mikka said. "I heard that you sell charms here."
"Yes we do." The girl smiled. "Your here to buy one?"
"Yeah. I've been having horrible dreams lately, and thought
that a few charms could help."
"Rei?" Someone called from inside the temple.
The doors opened, and Raven walked out.
"Usagi sent me to ask if you had any chips left." Raven laughed.
"She..." Raven stopped, when she saw who Rei was talking to.
Mikka's face had gone slightly pale.
Rei looked from one girl, to the other.
"Do you two know each other?" She asked, slightly confused.
"Nope." Mikka said, regaining her color.
Raven laughed.
"Don't lie like that." She turned to Rei. "She's my sister."
"You never mentioned that you had a sister." Rei exclaimed.
"Yeah, well.." Raven glanced at Mikka. "I bet she doesn't tell all
of her friends about me either."
"My friends wouldn't like you." Mikka hissed softly. She turned
to Rei. "Thanks, but I have to get going." And with that, she turned
and started down the steps.
"I'll be right back." Raven spoke, and hurried after her sister.
"Mikka, wait up."
But Mikka didn't stop. She didn't even slow down.
Raven finally caught up with her. She grabbed her arm, and pulled her
around to face her.
"I've been looking for you." Raven told her. "Where have you
been hiding yourself?"
"Why would I tell you that?" Mikka replied coldly.
"Because I care about what happens to you."
"And you've done a fine job of showing it too." Sarcasm was
heavy in Mikka's voice.
Raven winced.
"I just want to make sure that your ok. The others too."
"I'll ask them for you." She regarded her sister. "Was that it?"
she demanded.
"Yeah, that was it." Raven sighed.
"Good-bye then." Mikka turned, and walked away.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Where did Raven go?" Usagi asked, as Rei entered the room.
"She ran after her sister." Rei informed them.
"Sister?" Makoto asked.
"Yeah. Apparently she has a sister."
Raven entered the room.
"I got to go." She said. "But I'll see you guys around ok?" she
said, as she gathered up her things.
"Bye." She exclaimed as she hurried out of the room.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Raven rushed home, and dropped her things off in the front hall.
She quickly transformed into CrimsonStar and headed for the balcony.
"Bye guys." She called out the her cats.
"Wait." Avalon said. "Where are you going?"
"To find my sister." Star stated, and jumped off the balcony
to the waiting streets below.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Mikka closed the door softly as she entered the house.
"I'm home." She called out.
"Hey. I was wondering where you had gotten to." Nikkos smiled
as he came out of the kitchen. "What wrong?" He asked as he saw her
expression.
"Guess who I saw?"
He sighed.
"Raven?"
"Bingo. She was at the temple."
"So? What's the big deal?" he asked, walking into the living
room.
Mikka followed.
"What's the big deal?" Mikka almost screamed. "She knows. She
noticed." She started pacing.
"Noticed what? Stop pacing, and talk to me." He said, grabbing
her arm.
Mikka sat down beside him.
"The reason she never found us was because she was searching for
our old energy signatures. They've changed since we were on Trillitana."
She took a deep breath. "Raven noticed that my Aura was different, I could
see it in her face. And now that she knows what she's looking for, she'll
find us."
"Great." Nikkos sighed. "So what you're saying is that she'll
be here any minute?"
Mikka nodded.
"She could be."
"Oh joy."
Mikka sighed, and snuggled closer to him. She hadn't wanted Raven to
know where she lived. Heck, she didn't want anything to do with Raven
period. But there was no helping that now, it was out of her hands.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Star leapt from roof to roof following the energy signature. It had never
occurred to her that they might have changed from the time when they
had all lived on Trillitana.
She stopped, and leapt to a balcony. She was here. She powered down,
opened the door, and stepped inside.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Hello?" Raven called out.
Mikka leaned against the door frame, her eyes an unforgiving grey.
"I'd say 'welcome', but your not."
Raven sighed.
"Its good to see you have a roof over her head."
"Of course she dose." Nikkos said, standing behind Mikka. "Don't
you think I'd take care of her?"
"So you two are..." Raven started.
"No." Mikka smiled. "Don't worry, we have separate rooms."
"Not that you'd care." Nikkos growled.
"So, uh, are you going to give me a tour?" Raven asked.
"No. But if you want to look around go ahead, I'm not stopping
you." Mikka walked into the kitchen, and Nikkos followed.
"You said you'd be civil." Mikka hissed slightly at him.
"Hey, I said no such thing." Nikkos defended himself.
"Ok, maybe you didn't, but could you stop with the attacking?"
"Have you forgotten what she did to us? She left us all to die."
"You were already dead, what does it matter to you?"
"She could have brought me back, and she could have saved the
rest of you."
Mikka ignored him, and opened the fridge.
"What's with you? I thought you were furious about what she did."
Nikkos asked her. "Cat? Answer me."
"You know what, maybe I am a bit pissed that she left me to
die, at the hands of some madwoman, but she's my sister Nikkos. And even
after all she's done to me I missed her. She's the only family I have
left, and as far as we know the only other person on our team that's
still alive." She slammed the fridge door. "And what happened to all of
the milk!?" Mikka's hands started to shake slightly.
"Ok, I need to sit down now." She said, as she collapsed into a
chair. "You know what Nikkos?" she said, looking at him. "You have no
idea how I'm feeling right now. I just want everything back the way it
was, you know? Like it was back on Trillitana."
Mikka's eyes turned dark blue, as a single tear dropped from them.
"I miss those days so much." She whispered.
"Its ok Cat. We'll find the others, and everything will be back
to normal again. I promise." He smiled slightly. "Before you know it,
we'll be spoiling you, and calling you princess again."
"You guys never called me princess." She smiled. "And you were
the only one who spoiled me."
"I was not!"
"Yes you were."
"Whatever. Anyway, if you want your sister here, I guess I can
be civil."
"Thanks." Mikka smiled. "Now go fetch us some milk."
"I don't think so." He grinned.
"Come on." She begged. "Pweese?"
"Stop it, that face doesn't work on me."
"Sure it does." She laughed.
"Oh all right!" He exclaimed. "I'll go get the milk."
"While your out there, can you pick up some pizza's too? I
think Raven's staying for dinner."
"Might as well." He checked the fridge. "Looks like we need some
more eggs too."
"Don't forget bread. We need bread." Mikka added.
"Bread, Milk and eggs."
"Oh, and pancake mix. I finished it this morning."
"Anything else?" He asked.
"I think so. Let me make a list."
"What happened to just the milk?"
"You can pick up some other things while your out there." She
smiled.
"How do I get myself into these situations?" He muttered.
"By volunteering to go get milk." Mikka replied, innocently.
Nikkos merely laughed.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Raven, Mikka and Nikkos were sitting around the table eating pizza when
the phone rang. It had just finished getting dark.
"Who would be calling?" Nikkos wondered.
"Hello?" Mikka said, picking up the phone. "Ok.." She looked
at Nikkos.
"Who is it?" He asked her.
"Right.." She grabbed a piece of paper. "Pen, I need a pen." she
whispered, putting her hand over the receiver.
Nikkos passed her a pen, and she scribbled down some numbers.
"Yeah. See you then." She said. "Bye." She hung up the phone.
"Oh God." She said, a dazed look on her face.
"Who was it?" Nikkos asked, reaching for another piece of pizza.
"Ceres." Mikka said.
"What?" He exclaimed, almost dropping the slice.
"It was Ceres." Mikka laughed. "And she's with Willow."
"That's great." Nikkos smiled. "Have they heard from the others?"
Mikka sighed.
"I don't think so."
"So you guys don't know where the others are either?" Raven asked.
"No. As far as we can tell, the crystal sent us all to the future
with no memory of what happened to us. Only in the past year or few months
has everything been coming back to us." Mikka said.
"And none of us so far have parents that are still alive." Nikkos
sighed.
Mikka picked up the paper.
"She gave me an address where we are supposed to meet them." She
looked at the clock. "We have about ten minutes to get there."
"We'll take the car." Nikkos smiled.
"I think I'll head home." Raven said. "I doubt they'll want to
see me."
"Your right. I mean, I barely do." Mikka said.
"Let me know what happens though ok?" Raven said, stepping out
on the balcony.
"All right." Mikka replied.
"Bye guys." Raven called, as she leapt off the balcony.
"Well, lets go." Nikkos smiled.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Mikka, will you calm down?" Nikkos told the squirming girl.
"I can't. I mean, its Ceres. She's ok. We're not the only ones
left anymore. And besides, if she's ok, it means that the others are too.
We just have to find them."
Nikkos smiled.
"I told you everything would be all right."
"This is the place. Stop."
Nikkos stopped the car, and Mikka jumped out.
"I'm going to find a place to park." He called to her.
"Sure, ok." She said, her eyes scanning the street.
Then she saw them. Her breath caught in her through, and she ran across
the street, avoiding the cars.
"Ceres!" She called out to her.
Ceres turned around, her bark blue hair blowing in the wind. Her violet
eyes lit up.
Mikka leapt into her arms.
"Ceres!" She laughed. "Its so good to see you."
"Mikka." Ceres smiled. "Its good to see that your ok."
Mikka let go of Ceres, and embraced her sister.
"Willow." Mikka exclaimed. "I missed you guys so much."
Willow's deep green eyes sparkled with excitement, as her green hair
sparkled under the street lights.
"Where's Nikkos?" Willow asked. "Have you guys found each other
yet?"
"Long time ago." Mikka smiled. "We ended up in the same foster
home."
Ceres frowned. "Foster home?"
"Both our parents died." Mikka told her.
"And here he is now." Willow said, as Nikkos ran up.
"Ceres. Willow." He smiled. "Its good to see you guys."
Willow smiled.
"Taking good care of our princess Wolf?"
"Always." Nikkos smiled at Mikka.
Mikka returned his smile.
"But what about you guys? Where are you staying?" She asked the
sisters.
"We have an apartment not far from here." Ceres said.
"Wanna see it?" Willow asked.
"Of course." Nikkos smiled.
Ceres winced.
"Maybe that's not such a good idea.."
"How come?" Mikka asked, an eyebrow raised.
"Its not really visitor friendly." Willow said. "But that doesn't
matter, you guys are like family." She turned, and lead the way.
Nikkos shrugged, and followed her.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Welcome." Willow smiled, opening the door.
Mikka's eyes widened. To put it nicely, the place was a dump. The paint
on the walls was peeling, and the pipes could be seen over their heads.
"Its nice." Nikkos said, with a smile.
Ceres laughed.
"Don't lie."
"Ceres, what happened." Mikka asked. It was her turn to be
concerned.
Ceres spoke directly
into Mikka's mind, excluding Nikkos and Willow from her thoughts.
I was old enough, so I managed to keep Willow out of any foster homes
and things like that. This is the best we can do for now.
Mikka said.
I couldn't.. Ceres started.
Mikka smiled.
"Looks like we're being excluded from something." Nikkos noted.
"Looks like." Willow agreed.
Ceres considered Mikka's offer.
I don't know..
Ceres smiled.
"Good choice." Mikka laughed.
"What's this?" Nikkos asked them.
"Looks like were going to have some room mates." Mikka smiled.
"Great." Nikkos grinned.
"Oh, that reminds me." Mikka started. "Have you guys heard from
the others?"
Ceres shook her head. "Nope. We hoped that you had."
Nikkos sighed. "We haven't either."
"How did you guys find us anyways?" Mikka asked curiously.
"Curiosity killed the cat." Nikkos whispered.
Mikka elbowed him in the ribs.
"I had a dream, and it told me where I could find you, and
what name you were living under." Willow said with a shrug.
"You and your dreams." Mikka smiled.
up the steps, and when she reached to top, she looked around.
"Can I help you?" Someone behind her asked.
Mikka whirled around, and regarded the girl.
