Kaelynn chapter 5 Amarante

^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^

Tuxedo mask tensed then slowly turned and gasped. "Usa?" he whispered. This new figure ignored Tuxedo mask and turned to the new creature. "Pulan..Nartada Hutarpa Taina!" The girl snapped harshly at the creature.

The creature's eyes enlarged, and it's small ears drooped. It emitted a loud purring trill before growling once more at Tuxedo Mask and ambling clumsily over to the new girl. The girl giggled as the creature circled her feet, and rubbed up against her legs.

Tuxedo Mask sat up and took another look at the girl. No. . .Tuxedo Mask had been sorely mistaken. This girl was much different than his Usagi. Sure this girl had blonde hair, but it was a more ashen color than Usagi, and ya, she had blue eyes, but these were a harsh ice blue instead of the kind, gentle baby blue that he loved so much on Usagi. Besides! This girl stood a head taller than Usagi. . .or wait. . .was that the boots? Naw.

This girl's body was almost the exact build of Usagi's, but this girl's body was more toned, while Usagi couldn't even begin to hurt any of the other girls, now she looked like she could kick Makoto's ass.and her skin was more tan and sun-damaged instead of fair and smooth.

The girl had a thin scar running along her right jaw bone, and another on the exposed part of her chest from her right collar bone down a diagonal path which disappeared into her black leather top above her left breast. This one was thicker.

Her face was beautiful, almost equally beautiful to that of Usagi's. . .but not the same. Usagi's face was like a fingerprint. Nobody even came close to hers. . .Tuxedo Mask sighed and sat up all the way.

Sailor Mars made her way over followed by the other scouts to Tuxedo Mask's side. "You okay Tuxedo Mask?" she asked timidly.

"Fine," Tuxedo Mask answered shortly.

The new girl had reached down and scratched the new creature behind it's small ears. The creature nudged the girl playfully in her legs. The girl giggled in return. "Pulan! Nartada! Needo Kooday!" she said with another giggle.

The creature trilled again and then bounded off into the bushes, sparing another glance at the strange girl. "Needo!" the girl said again with another amused laugh. The creature trilled again and bounded away.

"You really must be more careful around here," she said still not looking directly at the arrived warriors, "there are countless dangers here and I don't want to be responsible if something shou-" it was at this point in her rambling sentence that she turned and took the new crowd in. A look of shock slowly passed over her face before it was masked with confusion, and finally an excited smile. "Ya'll are different from the other wanderers," she observed curiously.

"We are not like others, we are more powerful," Tuxedo Mask coolly replied in his usual way. . .defensively.

The girl grinned and hid a laugh behind her hand. "Still your temper and worries," She giggled, "I am not here to hurt you all. . .Tuxedo Mask."

Tuxedo Mask stiffened visibly. "How do you know who I am?" he demanded harshly. He received a sharp jab to the ribs from Mars.

"Simple," the girl replied casually, "I read your mind."

"You can do that?" Mercury asked from behind Tuxedo Mask. The girl turned and started at Mercury.

"Yes Mercury in fact I can," the girl chuckled looking at the shocked expressions.

The scouts and Tuxedo Mask were silent. The girl looked through each of them. "I am Amarante,": she said giving a slight curtsy, "and if you will follow me, I will answer your questions.

Amarante turned and started down a path. The scouts looked to each other before Venus grinned, nodded, and followed after Amarante. Jupiter followed next, the Mercury and finally Mars. Mars hesitated a moment. "Mask, swallow your pride and let's go," she said without ever turning her head before continuing onward.

Tuxedo Mask sighed and followed after Mars. The pair caught up with the rest of the group. ". . .exactly are we?" Venus was asking their leader.

"You," Amarante replied mysteriously, "Are in a beautiful mystical world. One unlike you have ever seen or will see ever."

Tuxedo Mask snorted sarcastically. "And where pre tell is tha-" Tuxedo Mask was cut short with a gasp as Amarante took this opportunity to briskly pull away the brush at the top of a cliff to reveal a beautiful pink and lavender lake, with a beautiful twenty story waterfall. The lake was surrounded by more of the beautiful forestry. There were trees of pinks, blues, greens, and light browns. The bushes seemed to glow with life from a distance. Light green birds seemed to dance through the sky, which was a deep lavender color.

In the forest was a large, prosperous village that added to the scenery instead of degrading it. Children's laughter floated through the scenery and into the awaiting ears of the scouts who smiled gently in return.

Amarante was watching their reactions and smiled at the looks before gesturing to the area with her arm. "Welcome to Kaelynn." She said gently to compliment the scenery.
