*Ossu, minna!!!!!! Well, I know that it's been a while since I've been on
this scene, but if you really want my excuse, which I doubt, read the
authors note of chapter 11 of Something to Live For. Or, even if you don't
want my excuse! (Hinthint) A special thank you to the wonderful people who
reviewed the first chapter of this story! Well, I'm back in action and
inspired (it's a miracle!), so I'll just be writing more often!!!!!

The stairs seemed endless as the pilots followed their impromptu hostess to her apartment. Finally, they all paused at a door that had about six loks on the left side, and Usagi brought out a rather large ring of keys, unlocking everything with practiced ease, whereas most people would struggle with the locks and remembering which key goes where. She gave them a small smile and explained that "My sister is very much a worrywart."
"No biggie." Duo said, shrugging, as she led them into a warm, brightly lit apartment that starkly contrasted with the biting cold outside and in the hallway. As soon as the door shut behind them, a small body took a running leap into Usagi's arms and hugged her.
"Usa-mama!!!! You're home!!!!!" a melodic, childish voice announced loudly. The child placed her chin on Usagi's shoulder and peered wonderingly at the boys, the could see that they had all, surprised, jumped for a kid who couldn't be more than six, with red hair in pigtails and large, innocent blue eyes. She tilted her head slightly, as Usagi struggled to remove her coat without dropping her charge. "I'm Chibi-Chibi, but you can call me Bee- Bee, like everyone else does." She chirped. Another, more mature voice interrupted them, laughing.
"Well, Usagi, it's a good thing that I still cook too much, you brought guests!!!!" Duo's eyes almost popped straight out of his head when he saw the speaker. She was about the same height as Usagi, which was still pretty short, as Usagi herself could be no more than five feet tall. The new girl had jet black hair that was sharply shorn above her shoulders, porcelain skin, dark violet eyes, and rosy cheeks, all making for a very dramatic look. She wore a knee-length black skirt and a dark purple chenille sweater over a black tank top.
"They helped me out of a rather tough spot, Taru. I thought it would be nice to ask them up for dinner; I knew that we'd have more than enough." Usagi explained, finally getting out of her coat as Taru took Bee-Bee. She then continued. "Guys, this is my sister, Hotaru, and my little sister, Chibi-Chibi; Hotaru, Bee-Bee, These are my new friends Trowa, Hiiro, Quatre, Wufei, and Duo." As she had spoken, she had indicated each boy. Bee- Bee struggled out of Hotaru's grip and walked up to Trowa and raised her arms to be picked up. Trowa complied. The little girl looked confusedly at the face in front of her, then rested her head on Trowa's shoulder, blinking almost tiredly.
"Why are you sad?" she asked innocently. Everybody, Trowa himself included, was slightly taken aback at the question.
"Because, Little One, because." Trowa whispered quietly, before returning the child to her sister. After a pause, Usagi, smiled and cheerfully clapped her hands.
"Well, lets just go into the dining room now, shall we?"
