*After School At the Arcade*
As soon as the four girls entered Usagi had excused herself to the restroom. The remaining three sat down at their usual table, and after a few minutes were joined by Raye.
"OH MY GOD RAYE GUESS--"
Minako was cut of as usagi returned, "So Pyro, I hear you missed me."
Raye, having had a long day wasn't thinking properly so replied as she normally would have, " Yeah, whatever, Odago Atama why in the hell would I-- ODANDO ATAMA?" Raye immediately jumped from her seat and hugged Usagi.
When they broke apart Usagi laughed, "Are those tears I see in your eyes?" Raye shot her a joking glare, and Usagi continued. "Besides, if you hadn't noticed I no longer have Odango's in my hair so you can't call me that."
"Yeah, but I bet you're still as scatter brained as ever!"
"Hey, I am not! I worked my ass off to better my education! You can even ask Ami how well I'm doing!" Usagi crossed her arms and stuck her tounge out at Raye.
The girls banter was stoped as Motoki walked up, "Hi there you must be a new friend of the girls, I'm--"
"Honestly, Motoki-onichan you should recognize me I haven't changed that much. So just can cut out the speil, and I'll have a cherry pepsi please!"
"Who?"
Minako rolled her eyes. "Dear god, its Usa! She hasn't changed that much..." Taking another look at Usagi, Minako grinned sheepishly. "Well not so much that you can't tell who she is by looking in her eyes!"
"Usa-chan?" She recieved a hug from Motoki as he continued, "You're back! Thats wonderful! Mamoru will be so happy!"
"If you tell him before I am ready to face him, I can disappear just as quickly as I reappeared!"
At this comment everyone looked at her and it was obvious she was serios. "But why?" Motoki questioned.
"I'm conflicted right now." A small pout formed on her face, "I left to become a better person so that he would love me. I'm not sure if I'm good enough yet. I've worked so hard. I've learned to protect myself. I've learned new abilities. I've become graceful, polite, and more agile. I've fixed all the things he said made him hate me but, if I am good enough and he can love me now, is he good enough for me? It took me two years of hard work to realise that maybe it was him that wasn't good enough to begin with!"
Motoki was about to respond to Usagi, when she gave out a squeek and dove beneath the table. "Usagi wh-"
"Usagi what, Motoki?"
Motoki jumped when her herd Mamoru's voice. "Umm... Usa... Usagi would have really like this sundae I made today, I was just telling the girls cause it reminded me of her... and ah... Well I miss her! Any way I got customers see ya later!" Motoki stammered through the entire sentce and left as quickly as he could.
Mamoru gave Motoki's retreating back a funny look. "Okay, that was strange. Any way, girls I've got really good news! Usagi is back!!! I think we should begin to look for her. Ami can you do a scan with your computer?"
"Mamoru what makes you think that Usa has actually returned?"
Mamoru beamed. "Ami, I feel her. Our link is back! Right now I think she's kinda close, thought I can't tell where exactly... and she seems to be scared." Mamoru shook his head as though to clear his thoughts. "So I'd like to find her as quick as possible, could you hurry!"
Usagi silently cured under the table."Umm... I can try.. ahh..." Ami didn't know what to do. On one hand she risked losing Usagi agian, on the other the return of the link had seemed to pull Mamoru out of his depression.
She thought for a moment. After Usagi had left Mamoru had devoted himself to his studies entirely, any time that he was not reading a book he could be found staring at a picture of him and Usagi crying to himself repeating the same sentce, "My demons chased my angel away..." It had taken several months before he began to eat again without someone watching him through out the meals to make sure he didn't throw it away, and go to continue staring at his picture. After he had gotten out of this funk, he'd dropped out of school, luckily for him it was only one semester, and stayed in bed all day, except for meals. When anyone questioned him about this he simply explained that just as she died in his dreams he was going to find away so that they could die togther in the dreams. After this phase, he seemed to return to normal, though Motoki often found him in his apartment crying, when asked what was wrong he'd simply say that since he'd returned all he could to normal his Usako should return to make his life complete, and whole. And now he was actaully smiling he hadn't done that since he'd broken p with Usagi...
Ami snapped out of her thoughts as a head of black hair and a face she didn't recognize appeared from underneath the table. "hehe, Found my earing. Well girls I gotta go to work. Sorry I can't stay. Though, I must say today I've felt totally ubiquitous, oh well! I'll see ya girls at school tomarrow! Ja ne!" And then the strange women disappeared before anyone could register what had just occurred.
Mamoru was the first to respond to the incident, "Thats strange she wasn't wearing any earings. Is she a new friend from school?"
Minako, who'd felt Usagi change, was the quickest to think of a cover. "Well it was a earring for her...uh... belly button! Yeah, thats it her belly button! And, yes, she's new at school! Today was her first day! She's really nice. You'll have to meet her sometime." Hearing the last bit Raye kicked Minako in the leg, who in return, shrieked "Ouch!"
Mamoru gave them a strange look, "Whats her name?"
Makoto responded this time, "Umm... Yumiko."(means dream girl)
Mamoru just nodded, and looked to Ami. "So can you do that scan?"
Ami pulled out her computer and typed in some fake data... 'Hopefully the trace of the link woill be enough to keep him in his high spirits, at least until Usa is ready to talk with him.' Ami shook her head no. "Nothings come up. I can try agian if you'd like?" 'WHAT AM I SAYING? He might notice the info's wrong the second time at this! Please say no, please say no...' under the table Ami crossed her fingers.
"Nah, thats alright..." Ami breathed a sigh of relief. "Maybe one of us will get lucky and see her. Would you guys contact me if you see her?" The girls all shook there heads yes. "Good, I need to talk with her and apologize for so much I don't know where to begin. Well I gotta go, I need groceries! Bye girls!" Mamoru turned around and left the arcade.
Noticing Mamoru leave Motoki returned with a cherry pepsi in had. "Hey where's Usagi?"
"She said she had to go to work, but I'll take that pop Motoki!"
"Alright Minako! Enjoy!"
Raye looked at Makoto quizically after Motoki left, "Yumiko?"
"It was the first thing that came to mind, after all Usagi is his 'dream girl'! How do you suppose Usagi was hiding their link anyway? I mean he used to be able to pin point her down to the spot."
Raye shook her head. "I sensed some increased psychic attivity in her brain, but that could mean a number of things. I suppose we'll just have to wait and ask her. So Ami, is she really doing better in her classes?"
Ami shoook her head. "Oh yes! I ment to tell you guys. She aced her placement examinations."
Minako gave her a funny look. "So..."
Ami sighed, "Not even I aced the placement exams, as they were rather difficult. I mean, I missed at least 2 problems in each section. Our Usagi has changed quite a bit!"
Makoto smiled. "Looks like our little Usa grew up. Wonder where she was, and I wonder what else about her has changed. I mean Usagi aceing a test, thats mind boggling."
"Tell me about it." Raye added.
Ami smiled. "I for one knew she could do it all along."
Minako sat up quickly shocking the others because she'd appeared to have been spacing out. "You don't suppose Usagi is the one who defeated the youma last night, do you?"
"It would be logical." Ami input some data into her computer," And there is a 55% chance that it was Usagi. As I wasn't able to agther any readings of the energy last night, I can't be any more precise than that."
"Another question to ask her. Guess we wait till tomarrow."
Makoto smiled, "So Raye, I hear Chad asked you out on a date, care to share?"
From this the girls the girls continued to talk of boys, shopping, and other bits of gossip, but the scout buisness wasn't mentioned firther, though each felt a similar anticipation to find if it was truly Usagi that had helped them.
