Chapter 6: The truth about Usagi

***

The girls got back with a lot of explaining to do as to why Amy was there. The boys and Relena listened as the girls explained that Dr. J wanted Amy to get out for a while then return to work. The boys seemed to buy it, but one was getting suspsious.

Trowa's POV

Hmmm... This is a bit out of wake, first that new maid, the Japaneese Ambassador, Relena's cousin, and now Dr. J's assistant comes to stay here. They could be the five spies. If another shows up, I'll tell the others my suspicions. Oh please don't let them be the spies. They seem so nice...

*Flashback*

"...remember, those girls are masters of disguise. They can make themselves look like anyone they please. They can even get to look like any one of you."

*End of Flashback*

Of course, it would be the perfect plan. Stay in the palace so they could be close to Relena and could strike at any time. Those five must be smart to come up with such a plan. Of course, I could have thought of that. Only I would have thought that they would not be in the same spot but still manage to be close. Like next door or something.

Wait a minute...

They couldn't be spies and be able to trick Dr. J like that. One of them would have been right next to him the whole time. I might be wrong... Dr. J would have known. He's the one that trained us. They couldn't have fooled him. These girls can be trusted.

Later, Raye told everyone she was going to take a walk in the garden. After she left, Relena loaded Serena with chores to do, including preparing Amy's bedroom. Amy stayed to help the boys with their new laptops when Duo started to ask questions on if there were any games to play on them. Lita went to play around with the exercise machines in the basement.

Rei walked through the garden full of all her favorite flowers. She found sanctuary among all the smells and colors. She spent a lot of time around flowers when she was little and she lived at a temple run by her grandfather. Almost throughout every season they had beautiful cherry blossoms blooming all around. In fact, it was this very day 13 years ago that he died and Rei was left alone without anyone to care for her. And within a week she was found on the floor of the temple frozen completely.

It was Lady Une that found her on the floor of the temple during the winter. She took her in and nursed her back to health. When she realized that Rei had a talent for martial arts, she introduced her to Treize. He was the one who trained her to be what she was now. When Rei was 6, she met another girl, just like her, without a family and no living relatives. Usagi Tsukino. Rei was terrified of her because her eyes were lifeless, and she had burns and scares all over her body, and she wore a scowl on her face that scared even Lady Une whenever she looked at the little girl.

But in time, they became friends, and Rei was changed completely. Usagi told her all the past events of her life without shedding one tear. And whenever Rei asked her questions about her parents and family, she had answered without hesitation. Rei soon learned how strong Usagi was not to let those terrified and hysterical moments get to her. She soon developed an obsession to be just like Usagi. She trained long hard hours and trained till she couldn't get out of bed. She learned that it was hard to forget what had happened in her life. But she was soon strong and able to handle that much pain. Though, she knew she would never be as strong as Usagi.

Throughout the years, two more girls came into her circle of friends. Ami Mizuno, and Makoto Kino. They weren't as stable as Usagi or even herself, but they were very skilled. Within days, they all acquired their own special skill. Une knew that to be prepared, they couldn't be the same. They had to have their own skill and that they would never have to lack it. That's why the five of them together couldn't be beaten. And that's why they were never needed together. The soldiers for the colonies weren't as good at everything, but the girls only mastered one or more things, which gave them an advantage to succeed every time. Their skills were the very things that earned them their nicknames.

And after a year or so, when they were all 12, (yes, they were that good that they could get missions when they were 8 years old.) another girl came into their team, Minako Aino. Usagi never really liked that girl. She never wanted to get to close to her. Just a little too innocent to be good for their purpose. But Treize would hear nothing of it, and she and the others were forced to work with Minako. All the men guards were completely dazed by her beauty, but she turned down every one of them. She always seemed to want to hang out with Usagi. It was her obsession, wherever Usagi went, she did to. She would beg and plead Treize to give her missions with Usagi. It didn't take a genius to figure out that she adored Usagi. For she had the skills, attitude, the speed to do anything. And Minako was the complete opposite of her. Eventually, Usagi became annoyed with Minako following her around and never giving her any privacy that she went up to her, pinned to the wall and told
her off. Minako was just plain scared of Usagi ever since.

***

Raye thought about that for a minute. Could that be why Minako turned against them? To get back at Usagi for telling her off? Or something else?

Raye looked at her watch, it was already 7:30. She scolded herself for not realizing that it was dark out. She turned and went back inside.

***********************

Well? What do ya think? I know, nobody really said anything in this chapter, but I had to make this chapter to give you some background info about what happened in the past. So, fair warning, if you see the words `The truth about ____' in any of the chapters, there will probably be no actual talking in it. Maybe a little, but most likely not a lot.

Okay, here ya go, the for sure couples in this story are...

Makoto/Trowa

Ami/Quatre

Minako/Duo

Well. That wraps up the couples!!! I know, you couldn't take the suspense. Well, here they are. Flames are welcome, but again fair warning, don't expect me to take them personally. You won't hurt my feelings. ^_^ So there!!!
