Chapter Eight: Actions call for Departure

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Kuma was the first to wake up, groaning in slight pain. She had ignored it before, but now her side stung with a fury. She sat up, and looked at the white bandage that clung to her stomach, showing the growing red stain of blood on the side that stung. It had probably been from Goku's ki blast. She looked down to see Usagi, and smiled at her sleeping form. She truly was the child of light, an angel at sleep. She stood carefully from the bed, so not to wake Usagi, and walked slowly to the door, looking for the other Z-fighters. She kept her ki down to almost nothing, and followed the voices she heard from the left of her room.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

"What do you think would make Kuma do that?" Gohan asked quietly, to no one in particular.
"It is my nature." said a voice from behind the group. They all jumped in fright, as they hadn't realized anyone was there. They all turned to see the smirking face of Kuma.
"When did you get here?" Yamcha asked, "I didn't hear you come in."
"You didn't hear me because I didn't wish for you to hear me. Darkness is silence, like Firefly." That made the people in the room look rather puzzled. She was speaking in riddles.
"What do you mean by it is your nature?" Gohan asked, wanting to know why she had attacked her sister.
"She asked me to kill her. We cannot disobey each other's orders, unless our guardians are present, which they are not. Remember when we said we'd died before?"
The group nodded.
"We died because we were in a rage, joking really, during a spar. Usagi was trying to get me mad, and said to kill her, and I couldn't stop myself. When we were little, such phrases as Make me, and Did too, couldn't be used. We obey each other to the fullest. The only good thing was that we didn't fight much. Did not and did too fights only lasted as long as we could hold off the urge to obey. It's a curse. We will summon the guardians soon to be rid of it"
Kuma ignored their reactions and turned to leave, wincing as her side hurt. Usagi was stirring, and she didn't want her to be alone when she woke up. She continued silently back into the room, and sat down to await Usagi's awakening.
Usagi opened her eyes to see Kuma's silver one's, a mirror of her own, and smiled. "Do you forgive me Imouto?" she asked, already knowing the answer.
"Course Usagi." Kuma said, "But if you ever do that again.."
"We can summon Sauna and Firefly." Usagi said smiling. Kuma smiled back.
"I wish you wouldn't read my mind like that Imouto." Kuma said smiling. "Shall we do it tonight?"
"No I don't think so, but I think we should make a disappearance for now, until we clear our own priorities up. They will go to fight Twenty in two days, and we will be ready by then." Usagi said.
Kuma gave her a questioning look, and was hushed by the realization that her sister had started having visions as well. She nodded and unwrapped her side, letting Usagi do the healing. The look in her eye at the wound insisted it, for she felt guilty.
"Don't feel bad Usagi, it wasn't your fault." Kuma said, instantly feeling her sister's guilt wash away at the words. She frowned as she felt Gohan's ki coming up the hallway, and gave her sister a 'don't say anything' look.
Gohan walked in to see the two girls holding hands, and a smile on their faces.
Kuma looked at him, and smirked stating the facts simply. "We have to leave Gohan." she said, as Trunks appeared at the door as well. It was Usagi's turn to smile as they both stood, still holding hands.
"Why are you leaving?" Trunks asked, trying to overcome the feeling of butterflies in his stomach when he looked at Usagi. Gohan was trying to do the same with his butterflies for Kuma.
*You know you like him Imouto* Usagi said in her sister's mind, referring to Gohan.
*And you like Trunks ne?* Kuma asked. Usagi only gave her a smirk. *Good* Kuma said. *Then we shall leave them a promise.* Usagi nodded in approval.
"We have something to take care of." Usagi said quietly. "But we promise to come back."
"How do we know you're not lying?" Gohan asked, the girls only smiled, as their hands started glow of bright silvers and gold. When the colorful light faded, two necklaces were held in each of the girl's hands. They each slipped one on, and gave one to each of the boys, Usagi handing on to Trunks, and Kuma, to Gohan. None of them could ignore the feeling they had when their fingers brushed together.
Gohan looked at the necklace he held in his hand in wonder. The chain was long and silver, fixed with a silver clasp. The charm, was the most unique thing he'd ever seen. It was an entirely black crescent moon, which was encircled by a barrage of silver stars. Now the necklace would not have been unique had they been attached, but these stars were by no means attached to the black crescent moon, they just seemed to float there. He slipped it around his neck, marveling as he watched Trunks inspect his own necklace.
Trunks carefully inspected the necklace in his hand, looking carefully at the golden crescent moon charm, surrounded by small crescents of bronze that seemed to float around the moon. The chain was gold as well, and he smirked slightly, slipping it on. (S.N.~ the necklaces that Kuma and Usagi wear are variations of their chokers in transformation state. *longer chain*)
"This is our promise." Usagi said sweetly, looking at Trunks. "These necklaces are as much a part of us as our bond. You can contact us through them, and we can contact you. Use it well Trunks-chan."
Trunks blushed slightly at the use of 'chan', and nodded, Gohan following suite.
Kuma stepped up and brushed her lips against Gohan's, and Usagi, smiling, did the same to Trunks. Before the boys could react, the two girls were gone, in a swirl of silver stars and golden crescent moons.
Both boys stood in silence, reaching up to brush their fingers across their lips at the exact same time.
'Whoa' was the only immediate thought in the room.
