A midnight conversation with the window
February 10, 2002
A gust of bone chilling wind coming from a fogged up cracked window caressed my hair. I smiled and walked over to the source of the draft, which was from a window that was going to be repaired tomorrow by a repairman. Just earlier today Vegeta had made his all to well-known exit. Through the wall.
`Saiyans, can't go through a door like a normal person. Wait a moment they aren't normal.' I hit my head against the window.
`Who am I calling normal?' I wondered to myself. `Everyone I know here are not normal. Especially Vegeta and Bulma those two are the most mentally screwed up people I think that I will ever know.'
"Those two cannot be in each others company for 15 minutes without yelling at each other. Does that make them a perfect couple or a screwed up couple?" I said aloud.
"Both" a low smooth voice whispered in my ear tickling it with the stranger's warm breath. I jumped up and turned around quickly. But was greeted with an empty hallway. A forlorn silver, long and desolate hallway. It beckoned for me to search it. I listened to the voice and warily I made my way to the end of the hallway. The only noise that was heard was the quiet rustle of my dove colored satin nightgown. I arrived at the end of the hallway that split into two hallways. Casting a glance both ways I decided to go down the right hallway.
`Usagi, there is nothing here you are just being your suspicious self again.' I chided myself. Taking a deep breath and exhaled letting all my tension with it. The exhaled breath created a little cloud before rising and disappearing near the ceiling.
"Winter" I grumbled. "Can't live with it, can't live without it." With that I spun on my heel and turned around and started to step forward but was greeted with a muscular chest. I jumped back and crouched into a fighter's stance.
"Who are you?" I heard myself say.
"Never be off your guard because your enemy will take advantage of you."
"Are you my enemy then?" I asked.
"Nay." Was the response.
`The same voice. I have heard it before somewhere but where?' I thought to myself. `It's so familiar yet different'
"Nay? What type of answer is that?"
"An answer to a ladies question." The same familiar voice whispered.
"What are you doing here?"
"Blunt aren't you?" The voice laughed lightly. "If you should know I was....taking care of some business of sorts."
"My ears still have not received your name."
"Nor have mine, yours."
"My name is Serenity." I said as I slowly got out of my fighter's stance. I sensed something familiar about him.
"No, that is not your name."
"What? Well what is my name then, all knowing one." I muttered sarcastically.
"Your name..."
"Yes" Trying to encourage the stranger to continue.
"Is Usagi" The man's velvety voice seemed to be as smooth as water. Making me weak on my knees although I could not see his face. The moonlight was coming from being him making it nearly impossible to see what he looked like. Although I could see his form was very defined and was at least half a head taller than me.
"Now I must leave." After those words left his lips he ran down the hallway.
"Wait!" I yelled. But was only greeted with the image jumping out of the half damaged window. I rushed to the window and peered outside. To be greeted with a well groomed deserted courtyard. My hands found the handle and I pushed the broken window shut. My hands rested on the handle for a few minutes before I let it go.
"What are you doing brat?" A gruff voice said. I nearly jumped up to the ceiling.
"Vegeta? Is that you." I asked in a timid voice.
"NO it's that stupid fool Kakkarotto." The voice said sarcastically. "Of course it's me. How can you not recognize the future ruler of this pathetic planet?"
`Yep it's him' My brain told me. "I was just looking outside." I said.
"So you enjoy asking the window in whispers to tell you its name?" An amused Vegeta said.
A blood rushed up to my head and a blush stained my cheeks. "N..n.. no."
"And they say I need a councilor because I only want to blow up this planet." He muttered to himself with that he turned into a room half way down the hallway on the left. The sound of a door sliding shut signaled his disappearance.
"I'm never going to live this down am I?" I asked the window. Its only response was to send down a few pieces of shattered glass. "No one was in the hallway to begin with. I mean I couldn't sense his power level." I tried to convince myself while my yellow slipper clad feet made my room. "But you also could not sense Vegeta's." A little voice whispered.
So did you like the chapter? Who do you think the mystery person was? Review please.
