Chapter 13....
After seeing to the comfort of her guests, Pagan quietly walks into the Living room and sits down in the same chair from just that morning. Gazing into the Dancing, cheerful flames, the Princess of the Majestic Shadowmoon court, thinks over everything that has happened that day. Looking up at the sound of approaching footsteps, Pagan sees Yuuchiro coming into the room
"Did you find everything alright?" She asks him, as her head tilts slightly to the left. "Yes, thank you for the selection of wardrobe...I saw how you have everything Casual on one side while the formal wear on the other." Yuuchiro says grinning slightly, as he sits down opposite her.
Grinning slightly Pagan responds "Well, I knew that someone would have to organize your clothes, seeing as how you usually seem to go brain dead whenever it comes to putting them in the right place...can I help it if my brother is lazy?" she teases. "Ha Ha, my sister the comedian ladies and gentlemen, Pagan, you are a regular laugh a minute you know that?" He says in amused sarcasm. "I try." Pagan answers smugly.
Shaking his head at his sister's antics, Chiro looks around the room a bit before feeling the need to ask. "Pagan...when the others come down, where are they going to sit? I mean this room is amazing but isn't exactly big enough for all the girls to lounge around.... And believe me they are much like Tal'lan's race was." says grinning at the end.
Rolling her eyes slightly, Pagan herself looks around the room a moment, noting that although the room was of medium size, there wasn't truly enough space for five teenage girls, two young men, a lunarian panther and herself to truly be comfortable...this particular room was filled more to be a study, or private den for her...the beautiful hardwood floors polished to a high shine was only particially covered by the Oriental designed throw rugs, chairs were set all around as in a conference style, a massive Oak desk sat in the corner of the room, complete with file cabinets, her Cherrywood stained liquor cabinet stood on the opposite ends, not including the small end tables near the chairs and other knik-naks around....but not a single couch where a bunch of teenagers, and young men could relax in sight....Deciding Chiro was right after all, Pagan simply shrugged her shoulders "It is true that you can't truly be able to have alot of people spread out in this particular room....but that isn't a problem, I'll just suggest we go somewhere with more space...I know that the Pool Room is nice and spacious...and since the pool is indoors and Heated...we could go for a swim as we talk and relax. In fact, hold on a second."
Closing her eyes, Pagan reached out with her mind and calls out to her cousin. After quickly explaining the plan to move to the pool room, and that there were suits for the others in their dresser drawers if they wanted to go for a swim, and to please tell the others the news, then quietly picks up the service phone near her and tells the cook to make up a large "snacking tray" with cheeses, fruits, veggies, dips, sauces, and sweets, then allows the staff to take the rest of the night off and to have a good night, before returning back to her brother.
"So where is your infamous shadow tonight?" Yuuchiro asked. "Tal'lan is out hunting at the moment, he didn't really get a chance today, since we arrived here...with first settling in, the meeting with Setsuna, then changing to go out to find Serena." "So will you be contacting him with the new seating arrangements as well?" "No, he'll know where to find me when the time is right...he always has." Looking into the flame a second Pagan raises her silver gaze to her brother before saying. "I'm glad you're here Chiro.... I've missed you these past years...tell me, how has it been for you? What have you been doing all this time?"
Setting back deeper into the chair, Yuuchiro begins to tell her about the life of the man others know as Chad, his childhood, the joys and pains growing up, trying to become a rock star, falling asleep on the steps of Rei's shrine, the training there from her grandfather, his time with Rei herself...Leaving nothing out knowing Pagan would know if there was anything, "and the rest you now know." It seems you've had an interesting life...are you upset that you now have you old memories back? I mean basically you had a nice life before now..." before she say anything more Yuuchiro rises to his feet and pulls her up into his arms... "No, Pagan I don't regret it at all...with my memories now in place, I have my little sister back...most all my life I've felt an empty place in my heart that I just couldn't understand...That place is where you and the guys are...and now I have you back baby sister.... Now if only you would allow the guys to remember and return...I can assure you that they would feel as I do right now...those girls up there are their soulmates Pagan.Just as Tal'lan is yours and Darien is Serena's." Looking up into her brother's eyes, she could see how passionate is about this. Closing her eyes with a sigh she answers. "Let me think about it a while Chiro...it is a big decision and as you well know a life altering one." Nodding his head, Yuuchiro, gently pulls Pagan into his arms and places his chin on the top of her head, knowing that she needed to be held at this second and that the man his sister truely wants is not able to do so at this time.
Upon hearing soft footsteps, Yuuchiro opens his eyes to see the senshi and Darien standing in the doorway staring at the two. Leaning back slightly he tips Pagan's head up to look into her now open silver eyes, knowing she too heard the footfalls of her guests, and simply waits for her to collect herself.
Stepping away from her brother, Pagan turns to the others and smiles slightly, "Shall we adjourn to the pool room? I have asked the cook to prepare some things for us and leaving them there. After everyone nodded Pagan began leading the way, her mind still buzzing with all the decisions, questions and information she had within, but decided for just tonight, she would sit back relax, and just enjoy having her family and loved ones by her side.
