Switching Identities Part Three
" Wait let me get this straight, you want your best friend's boyfriend?"
" Yea that's right," I moved closer to him, " and your going to help me get him."
Johnny licked his lips and looked at me straight in the eye. " You are one cunning little bitch," he replied.
" I smiled and moved my fingers lower. " I know."
* * * * * * *
" Minako I think we need to talk more about why you wanted your friends boyfriend." Dr. Miller broke in.
" Its actually very simple, I learned to get what I want." Mina shrugged her shoulders. " Hollywood and America taught me something."
" And what was that?"
" That I can have what I want if I work hard enough for it."
" And what about Usagi? I thought she was your friend?"
" Oh she was! I loved Usagi to death but she had what I wanted and that was just not expectable. I waited and waited for something like she had but it didn't come. So why should she have all the luck! She has the perfect man! The perfect life! The perfect everything! It's simply not fair."
" But Minako you had just as much as her. You had a boyfriend and a career."
" Yes but they both went down the drain in a mix of drugs and sin. I know this sounds crazy but when I want something I won't stop until I get it and I wanted him. I wanted Mamoru."
* * * * * * *
It started raining halfway home that afternoon. It had been a few weeks since Mina and Johnny had talked that night in the club. Of course, he didn't know that. He knew nothing of what was about to happen.
Mamoru ran through the rain cursing under his breath about forgetting his umbrella at home. He had been at the library looking up something for work. The sun had been shining when he left but while he was inside the storm started building up.
When Mamoru walked out of the library and looked up at the sky he thought he could beat it home. Apparently, he was wrong. The storm began half way home completely soaking him by the time he ran into the building.
Inside the elevator he shook up his wet clothes but only succeeded in wrinkling them. " Damn it." Mamoru cursed as the doors opened on his floor. He walked out headed towards his door never noticing that it was already open.
He didn't notice this till he pulled out his key and looked down at the lock. The door had been left partially open as if someone had forgotten to close it all the way.
" What the?" Mamoru asked has he pushed open the door and walked further in. His mind questioned the reason for the door being open then decided it must have been Usagi. She could be so empty minded sometimes.
" Usako are you home?" Mamoru asked as he slipped off his shoes and walked into the main room.
" No she's not. She went out with Rei."
Mamoru blinked and adjusted his eyes to the dimness of the room. Someone had pulled the curtains closed. He noticed her standing near the window, her body pressed against the curtained windows.
" Minako-san?"
She ran one hand over the rough material while the other held onto the cloth. "Hello Mamoru-san." She replied.
" What are you doing here?" Mamoru asked has he moved away from her and begin to shake out the wet material of his shirt.
" I came to see somebody."
" Well Usako is apparently out with Rei but you maybe able to find them at Crowns. They usually go there."
" I wasn't looking for Usagi. I was looking for you." Minako stepped away from the window. She was clad only in a white tank top and a pair of pale pink panties. " I have something to give you Mamoru-san."
Mamoru looked at her and gulped. " Why are you dressed like that Minako?"
" To appeal to you. Don't you think I'm beautiful?" Mina puckered her lips and pouted. " I want to be beautiful for you Mamo-chan."
" Don't."
" Don't what?" She asked walking even closer to him.
" Don't do this Mina. I'm in love with Usako."
" Yes but isn't it strange how much Usako and I look alike?" Mina stepped up to him and raised her arms to wrap around his neck. " Its like we could be twins." She raised her lips and kissed his chin. He stood rigidly still. " Oh come now Mamo-chan I know you want me. I can feel you." She pressed against his body with her own.
" I have Usako. I-I can't."
" Yes you can Mamo-chan, its easy just kiss me." She reached up on her tiptoes and brought her lips to his. For a long second he was rigid against her but gradually he softened against her and deepened the kiss. His arms wrapped around her body and pulled her closer. Mina could feel his hardness against the softness of her stomach. She leaned in closer and brought both hands to reach down and help him remove his wet shirt so she could feel the skin of his chest.
The article of clothing was thrown to the side as Mamoru moved his lips away from her mouth and downwards over her neck to her breasts. He kissed her through the cloth then stood up as she removed her top and threw it next to his shirt.
" God your beautiful Minako," he groaned has he kissed her breasts.
" Take me Mamo-chan!" She groaned throwing her head back.
Mamoru moved lower showering kisses on her stomach until he was at the waistband of her panties. Then he stopped and looked up at her. She looked down at him waiting for something to happen but he only stood up.
" I'm sorry but I can't." He stood up and moved away.
" What do you mean you can't?" Minako asked.
Mamoru turned back to her and looked down his eyes roaming over her body. "You're a beautiful womyn Minako but I have someone."
" I can give you more then she can." Minako replied stepping forward but he stopped her.
" I love Usako very much." He reached down and picked up her shirt. " What I just did was wrong. I never want to hurt Usako." Mamoru threw her shirt to her. " Here you better get dressed and leave before she finds you here." He picked up his own shirt and moved towards his bedroom.
" I love you Mamoru-san, don't you at least feel the same way about me?" Mina cried.
He stopped and looked back at her. " No I'm sorry I don't."
She stood there a moment clutching the shirt to her chest then with a cry Minako ran and grabbed her clothes from the couch before running towards the door. He listened to the door slam shut before letting out a sigh and running his hands through his hair.
Inside the elevator, she got dressed again. She hurt like someone had punched her in the stomach. Mina wiped away her tears and pulled on her shoes. There was no way anyone could see her like this, uncontrollable and scared.
The elevator doors opened up inside the lobby. Mina ran out of them headed for the doors. She ran past the faces of stunned guests and people who stood in the lobby and saw the heartbroken girl run past them.
Outside it was pouring rain but Mina did not care. She ran out the doors into the street where she narrowly missed getting hit by a car. The driver honked his horn and waved his fist at her. Mina just ignored him and ran on into an alley where she leaned against the wall and wrapped her arms around her body. It was there sliding down the wall that Minako stayed crying bitter tears of pain and remorse.
An hour later she found herself inside a phone booth looking down at the small white card she held in one hand.
'" Call me anytime day or night and I can hook you up."'
Mink dialed the number written on the card and listened to the phone ringing. It rang once then twice then a third time.
" Hello?"
" Johnny?" Minako whispered.
" Mina? You sound horrible, where are you?"
" Johnny, the plan failed. Were going to have to get rid of her."
* * * * * * *
" So he restricted your advances?" Dr. Miller asked.
" I should have known that she would be a strong influence in his life but I wasn't going to let that stop me. He would be mine."
" So what did you do?"
Mina looked up at the ceiling and sighed. "Before Mamo-chan arrived I took the opportunity to take something of Usagi's that I thought might come in handy."
Minako looked down at the locket in her hand. Even in the dark, it was beautiful. It gave off its own eternal light. The sound of footsteps broke her out of her dream. She quickly closed the locket and shoved it away into her pocket. Johnny was walking towards his footsteps splashing though the muddy puddles.
" Why are we meeting here? We could have hooked up in the club."
" But then how would I have shown you where to go?" Mina replied sweetly. Then she changed the tone of her voice growing more serious. " So you know what to do?"
" Yea I think so. He's not home?"
" No I saw him leave for work earlier about half an hour ago. She should be leaving herself for my house in an hour. I told her to be at my house at 10."
" Will she be there?" Johnny asked.
" Yea, she'll be there and so will you. Do you remember the plan?"
" How could I forget," Johnny replied.
" Good, I'll meet you there." She pressed her body against his and gave him a quick kiss before running off towards her car.
He watched her go, waiting the five minutes they had planned for then walked out and looked around. The coast was clear. Johnny walked towards his rental car and climbed in. He looked down at the baseball bat on the seat next to him. This would be perfect.
* * * * * * *
" Minako-san! I'm here!" Usagi called as she walked inside the door.
" I'm upstairs! Come on up!" Mina called from her room.
Usagi closed the door behind her and ran up the stairs. " Do you want to take your car or mine to the movies?"
" I don't know if I really feel like going to the movies."
" What do you mean?" Usagi asked as she rounded the corner and headed for Mina's room.
" I mean that I have something better in plan," Mina replied as Usagi walked into the room.
" Like what?" Usagi asked but was cut off by Johnny pushing a gun against her back.
" Stay quiet and don't say anything and you won't get hurt," Johnny whispered in her ear.
" Wh-what is going on here?" Usagi whispered as Johnny pushed her into the room and closed the door behind them.
" Were going to have a little experiment," Johnny replied cocking his head towards Minako.
Carefully Mina stepped forward and laid the silver crystal on the table top set in the middle of the room. " I'm sorry I have to do this Usagi," her tone didn't sound sorry though. " But I want something you have."
"Minako what is going on here? Usagi whispered licking her lips in fear.
" You have something I want."
" And what's that?" Usagi asked trying to look back at Johnny.
" Mamo-chan."
" What do you want with Mamo-chan?"
" I want him for my very own." Mina whipped her hair away from her face. " I want you out of the way and him for all my own."
" Quick yapping and lets get this over with," Johnny growled poking the gun harder into her back.
" I want you to wish on the silver crystal Usagi. I want you to wish that I become you, forever."
" I can't do that Mina!" Usagi cried out but was silenced by Johnny. " Shut up!" He growled.
" Yes you can, I know you can." Mina stepped forward and turned the locket towards her. " Do it! Take it in your hand and do it!"
Usagi looked close to tears but she took the locket in her hands.
" Say the words," Mina growled.
" Alright, alright," Usagi swallowed her tears and closed her eyes. " Guardians of the moon kingdom, I place my wish that," she faltered slightly but continued, " that Minako-chan can become me."
" And assume all things that once belonged in your life," Minako added.
" And assume all things that belong in my life." Usagi repeated has tears formed in her eyes.
" Yes," Mina breathed as light begin to form around her. The light grew stronger and stronger until it covered her body. Johnny looked down at Usage who was now weeping and holding onto the locket for dear life. He suddenly felt pity for her but he had a job to do. Carefully Johnny cocked the gun and pulled the trigger. He closed and his eyes and squeezed off a shot right into her head.
She died has she hit the floor just as the light disappeared and in Mina's place stood Usagi.
" Did it work?" She breathed looking at Johnny.
" Dead on," he replied bending forward to pick up the locket and hand it to her.
Mina took it in her hand and placed in a pocket. " You know what to do now."
He didn't answer but instead dropped the gun and picked up the baseball bat. "Leave it to me."
" Good," Mina stepped over the body and headed for the door. " I better get out of here while I still have time." She turned and looked down at the body of her dead friend. " Goodbye Minako."
* * * * * * *
Her mother found Minako dead in her bedroom that night. Her face had been smashed into a bloody pulp. The weapon was found but no fingerprints were found on it. It was a complete mystery to who killed her.
Usagi was called down to the police station for questioning along with the other girls to be questioned but she was to distraught to answer sensibly. Finally Mamoru was allowed to take her home where she immediately went to bed and refused to get up for the next two days.
The funeral was arranged by her grieving parents and the girls. Near the end Usagi got up and helped although she spent most of her time crying. Everyone who had ever known Minako attended the funeral. Movie stars and friends alike from both Japan and America came but it was Usagi who cried the hardest. No one ever guessed that her tears were fake.
* * * * * * *
Minako stepped out of the elevator onto her floor and walked over to the door. She inserted the key and opened up the door.
" I'm home Mamo-chan!"
He stepped out of the kitchen and smiled at her as he wiped his hands on a towel.
" Welcome home Usako!"
Mina smiled and closed the door behind her. " It's good to be home."
