Angel: My gods!
Sage: Nani???????
Duo: I think she's just happy.
*Angel jumps up and down giggling like a five year old*
Angel: I finished another chapter!
Duo and Sage: Is that all?
Angel: Yes!
Sage: Enjoy!
Angel: On a more serious note: What happened to all my reviews? It's like everyone disappeared. I started off with like ten per chapter now I get one. I feel like people have lost interest in my fics... Please, if you're all still out there, review! If people don't read my fics, I'll probably stop posting. So let me know. Ja ne minna-san. Maybe for good.....
(One week later from the time of the kidnapping)
"Thank you so much for coming Karutsu" Kakuya smiled warily at her elder brother. He'd come all the way from the other side of Kimonos to help in her search for her missing friends. Karutsu had been crowd king only a year before so he was very busy. But when his little sister needed help, he came running.
"Your welcome sister." Karutsu stood five inches taller then his sister, with green eyes and short red hair. He dressed in a suit with the royal symbol over his heart. A long red cape trailed behind him and on his head a golden crown sat.
"The scouts should be here in a matter of moments. I feel so awful; it's all my fault. And poor Hotaru." Kakuya whimpered. She had never been one to have a break down, but this was as good a time as any to have her first. Karutsu took her into his arms and held her sobbing form. He didn't know the full details, but if it was enough to this to Kakuya, then it was enough to kill for.
"Princess." Fighter and Healer rushed in. They bowed swiftly to Karutsu and were on their feet in seconds and surrounding Kakuya in another. Chibi chibi and Serena were next to arrive. They both looked tired and sad. Seiya slid away from his princess and pulled Serena to him. Galexia and Setsuna entered after, walking slowly to the small group. Karutsu's eyes left his sister for a moment and wandered over to Setsuna, she didn't notice. The other outers arrived. Haruka and Michiru looked tired and warn. They were holding onto each other for dear life. Hotaru had been their little girl. Their baby!
"Now, if someone will explain?" Karutsu asked, his gaze took in the room. Taking a deep breath, Setsuna started to tell the whole story: from their arrival to the attacks and the kidnapping. When finished she slid down onto the floor, her body couldn't stand to stay upright any longer.
***************************************************
Soft cries and whimpers came from the corner of the dark cell. Yaten heard the cries and woken from his slumber. He'd been in a room before. Akuma had been there. The pain and torture he'd been through. Pure agony. But now, he was somewhere else, and there was someone else.
Slowly he crawled over to the other person. He found a girl curled tightly in the fettle position crying softly. "Miss?" Yaten said in a hoarse voice. The girl looked up and sad purple eyes met his. Yaten nearly fell back, *Hotaru*
"Yaten?" She whispered.
"Hotaru?" He swiftly took her into his arms. She was covered in blood and dirt. Cuts and scratches lined her arms and the rest of her body. Her hair had been cut back to shoulders and her clothes were in taters. Tears fell softly from her eyes and she clutched him for dear life. "Hotaru I'm so sorry. I didn't mean it. I do love you, and this is all my fault.
"Koi..." She whimpered. "Please Yaten, save me."
"Hai koi. I've got you."
**********************************************
"Don't worry Rini, we're almost there." Sighing, Luna turned her gaze to the girl walking next to her. Some how Rini had found her way back from the future without Pluto. Rini was different now, and so was the future. Luna had explained the events of what had happened to her once she'd arrived and they'd struck out towards Kimonos. Artimis, Diana, Ceres, Orbit, Luna, and Rini all now walked on towards the palace where they were to find Serena and the other scouts.
"I can't help but worry. My supposed father betrayed us in the future and everything has gone wrong. Now, I feel that it is up to me to help here, in this time." She sighed and bushed a lock of black hair from her forehead.
"Black hair, you have short black hair. I don't think I'll get used to that." Artimis laughed. Ceres and Orbit rolled their eyes.
"So who are they Luna?" Rini asked.
"We are star cats from the star region outside of the Kimonos Galaxy. We came here to help since the evil also threatens our home as well." Ceres supplied.
"Do you protect any one person like Luna and the others do?" Rini smiled.
"No. We have no assignments as we very much would like." Orbit sighed. Both cats sighed at the same time. Ceres had gray fur with a black star on her forehead. She had black paws and blue eyes. Orbit was black with a white star on his forehead. He had blue eyes and white paws.
"To bad, I'd think everyone would want a guardian. That reminds me, the outers don't have any guardians do they?" Orbit's ears perked up.
"People here don't have guardians?"
"Nope." Rini giggled. "On a more serious note, let's hurry!"
**************************************************************
Serena and Seiya held each other as Karutsu and Kakuya spoke about plans. The outers had gone off to sit in their room and cry again. Seiya actually felt bad for them.
"I can't believe this. Hotaru is pregnant too!" Serena cried against Seiya's shoulder.
"Hush Ser, everything will be fine. We'll them both back." *Yaten, be safe.*
Setsuna entered slowly and walked up to Karutsu and Kakuya. "Hello." She said softly and sat down at the table across from the king. He glanced up at her and smiled softly.
"Hello miss Setsuna."
"Hello Setsuna." Kakuya sighed.
"Any luck?"
"I'm afraid not."
"Why Hotaru? She's the one with the most to loose at the moment." Kakuya sighed. "I hope she and her baby are alright."
"So do we all." Setsuna let out a long sighed. Karutsu slowly eased his hand onto her shoulder. She turned her garnet eyes to him.
"We'll find your friend."
Angel: Well well well. Setsuna finally gets someone. Tell me what you think minna-san. Don't make me not finish this. Hope you liked. Ja ne.
Angel: On a more serious note: What happened to all my reviews? It's like everyone disappeared. I started off with like ten per chapter now I get one. I feel like people have lost interest in my fics... Please, if you're all still out there, review! If people don't read my fics, I'll probably stop posting. So let me know. Ja ne minna-san.
