Chapter 9
A/N Here's chapter 9!
Haruka pulled up beside the passenger drop off lane. Rei jumped out without even opening the door and started to run into the building, with Setsuna on her heels.

"What gate was it?" yelled Setsuna to Rei. "Luna's papers said Gate 20!" responded Rei. Setsuna looked down at her watch. 5:57. They weren't going to make it. Her face fell but she continued to run anyways. There was still a chance. 5:59.

"Here's the gate!" screamed Rei. 6:01 Setsuna looked up praying that the flight had been delayed at least a few minutes. As Rei searched the crowd desperately for Ami, Setsuna checked the boards for any chances of delays. Ami's flight wasn't up there anymore. A tear trickled down her cheek. She heard the other senshi coming up as she went to help Rei.

The other senshi caught up with Setsuna and they went to find Rei together. Rei was standing close to the boarding dock when everyone caught a flash of dark, short, blue hair.

Rei started screaming. "Ami! Ami please wait! Don't leave me!" she screamed desperately. Ami looked at Rei with the saddest look in her eyes as she walked into the tunnel to the plane.

Rei tried to run onto the boarding tunnel but was held back by the security guards. Then Ami was out of sight. The landing tunnel started folding up, and Rei's heart broke. Ami, her Ami, was gone forever. She broke down sobbing in the security guards strong arms for a few seconds until her friends came to get her.

Haruka put a comforting arm around the girl's shoulders and then lifted her up to take her home.
