Hmm, this is getting longer then I thought. It seems to be taking me a
while to get chapters out because I am making it up as I go along. Also
there's another fic idea I cant get out my head and I want to get a few
chapters of that done so I don't forget (that often happens in my case :P)
Well RnR please with suggestions or comments. I will try and make chapters
longer and more consistent in future *smiles and bounces off to write more*
Ps - slight update to previous chapter. Just added a sentence at the end of
it to coincide with this chapter
CHAPTER THREE - These are the times
Minako knocked on the door quite nervously, she decided to take her romantic problems to Michiru, Haruka and Setsuna. As much as she loved the other girls they lacked the experienced advice of the ever-knowing Setsuna, playful Haruka and regal Michiru. Setsuna opened the door and smiled a rare smile at the blonde.
"Minako, come in. I've been expecting you" Surprised Minako followed the older woman into the living room and looked around shyly.
"Please sit, I'll get some tea and call the others. I know why you are here so don't look so nervous" she walked of into a side door and Minako sat on the leather sofa. It didn't take long for Setsuna to come back and she was soon joined Michiru and Haruka. Minako took a long drink of her tea and suddenly wished it were something stronger.
"What brings you here Minako" Minako looked up to Michiru and relished in her beauty, she blushed and turned to Haruka
"Um, well I wanted advice on how to go about.um how do I tell someone.I've got a.damn" she squeezed her cup in frustration.
"Minako. You want advice on how to approach a girl and tell her you like her"
"Exactly" she smiled at Setsuna, ya know having the guardian of time as a friend has its strong points
"WOO HOO, Mina-chan's got a crush. Judging by that blush I'd say it's a big one. Who is it, anyone we know" Haruka was on her feet and pacing back and forth thinking about who it could be, Michiru ignored her and took Minako's cup away before she broke the expensive china.
"How long have you liked her" Minako's blush deepened considerably
"Well.I started to glance at her when we hung out and stuff and at the Hot Springs she wore that bikini.oh damn"
"HOT SPRINGS.its one of the SENSHI.HA this has made my day" Haruka was now pounding her fist in to her palm and burning a hole in the floor. Minako had the grace to look down and blush some more while Setsuna sat there with a knowing smile on her face and Michiru a confused one.
"Maybe I made a mistake, I better get going" Minako got up to leave when Haruka stopped her.
"Minako, you gave everyone a big shock yesterday. They are still getting used to your 'lifestyle' choices. Take your time in this, go places 'she' likes, be subtle you don't want to scare her off" Minako looked towards the fireplace to a group picture. She said goodbye and went to meet the other girls at the temple.
"Hey Rei, where's Ami and Usagi" Makoto asked as she sat next to Rei in the arcade. She replied in a mumble
"They got dates" sulking some more she took a sip of her coke,
"What's the matter, the single life getting to ya" Makoto giggled and dodged a swipe from Rei
"Well at least I don't think every guy that passes looks like my old sempai" Makoto looked down at the table and sank in her seat looking very embarrassed, the awkward silence was broken by hurricane Minako making her presence known.
"Hey guys. Now I'm here the fun can really begin.where's Usagi and Ami" Makoto and Rei looking awfully depressed answered
"Dates" Minako pulled them both up from the booth and dragged them towards the mall.
"Guys don't look so glum, we can still have fun right. How bout we go shopping"
A figure dressed in dark blue began his track down the long hall, to either side of him were support pillars with dark patterns carved in them resembling vines, soldiers were standing next to each pillar holding spears saluted him as he passed with a few of his troops. The dark figure waited at the foot of some marble stairs leading to a throne made entirely of jade, nest to it another made of ruby. Five minutes had passed when a swirl of blue light appeared and thickened to cover the jade throne from view, leaving in its wake their king. The small battalion of soldiers saluted their king as he sat upon his throne and figure approached.
"Your highness preparations are set, we can attack as soon as you give the order"
"Good work Komoku don't fail. My predecessor didn't accept failure and neither shall I"
"Your highness" Komoku bowed deeply and ordered the soldiers to follow him out. The king came down from his throne and walked towards a small bowl suspended in mid-air, he gazed into it with his distant blue eyes, which were so often obscured from view by sandy blonde hair. A young woman appeared dressed in a long white gown. He touched the water as if he were running his fingers through her long and curly dark hair, watching the ripples move across the picture. Holding his head down gently he allowed the picture to vanish and called over one of the guards.
"Go find Komoku. Tell him to attack"
Well that's finished; I bet you can all guess who the king is. I don't want to explain why I picked him because if you haven't guessed then I'll be giving it away. Till next time
