Chapter 1: Aren't You Some Kind of Flower?
Disclaimers:
1. Though not the first fan fic I've ever wrote, this is the first
that I'll ever be posting for public display.
2. I do not own Sailor Moon, or the characters of Travis Watson,
Darien Jacobson, or Apollo. Sailor Moon is owned by Naoko
Takeuchi, as well as other companies and such, and the other three
characters are owned by Jendra and appear in the fan fiction story
Universal and Universal B. Her stories are very good and you can
find them on ASMR and Crescent Moon Archives.
3. Why it's not necessary to this story to have read Universal/B,
it would be helpful to at least have a working knowledge of it.
Mainly, know the characters from it and they're relationships with
the other Sailor Moon characters.
4. The rating on this story will fluctuate from PG-13 to R. There
will be some violence and romance along the way, hence the
fluctationgness.
5. As long as I don't make too many mistakes and you can take the
time to, enjoy. I really hope you do.
6. The Strikers, as well as Hunter, are characters I created.

Part 1: A Time to Sit, Relax, and is that the Sun?!? Yay!
The Tokyo streets were busy. After all, it was Saturday
afternoon. The sun was shining brightly and it was only forty
degrees Fahrenheit. After the colder spell just a couple of weeks
ago today felt absolutely delicious to the citizens and many had
come outside for brief sprints in the nicer than lately weather.
In particular a small group of people were wandering around,
window shopping, and generally enjoying each other's company. Two
of them were obviously very much in love, their arms wrapped
around each other. The woman's hair was a shining gold, done up in
two buns on top of her head with ponytails streaming from them,
the man a dark haired complement to her lightness. The last that
made up their party was a man almost as tall as the other, but
light like the woman. They all seemed very close and many
passersby would reflect, for just a moment, about what a loving
trio they made, before hurrying home to their own families.
"Ohh, how cute!" said Serena as she stared in a shop's
window, mesmerized by the glittering things inside.
Darien and Travis smiled at each other, enjoying the company
of the young woman with them.
*It's about time we've had some time together, just to relax
with each other,* thought Travis. *With Darien working hard on his
master's degree and Serena and me studying hard, plus with my job,
and then the Scouts, we've barely managed any time together in the
past couple of weeks. I can't believe how much I needed this.*
Serena, Darien, and Travis traveled down the street happily.
Every once in a while words would be spoken, but more than often
it was just silence, just enjoyment between family. All in all, it
was a nice afternoon. But in the world of Sailor Moon, enjoyment
of life, and time to reflect on it, is very rare. And usually
signals a time when things are about to get a little more hectic.
Part 2: Touch my Chocolate and I kill
On their way to Serena's home they passed by their local
park. About three blocks from it they came across a house that had
been up for sale for awhile, but was now hopping with people
moving in possessions.
"Bout time someone bought that place," said Travis.
"I know. It's been so lonely and sad there for so long. I
hope it's someone nice and around our age," joined Serena.
Later that day a small car pulled up to the home. Out
stepped a very tall woman with thick black hair. Her eyes were
shielded behind sunglasses, but she had the presence that she had
already taken in everything around her and no matter what
happened, it wouldn't surprise her. From the passenger side of the
car another woman stepped out. She was dressed in a nice business
suit in a bright blue color, which set off her deep blue eyes and
black hair wildly. She was tall, but not as tall as the first and
her face was very open and friendly.
"Nice place," said the second.
"That's right, this is the first you've seen of it, isn't it
Corinne?" asked the first of her friend Corinne Samuels.
"Yup," answered Corinne.
"Well, when the others get here, we'll go take a tour
together, alright?"
"Alright, Lily," said Corinne looking at her friend for a
second. Lily Bates had aged since Corinne had first met her. Of
course, it had been almost nine years ago, when the girls were ten
years old. Even then, Corinne could tell that Lily was a leader.
*She's such a take charge person. There's no way she
couldn't have been leader. She's good at it, though. I just wonder
how she's going to handle being in Tokyo, next to him again.*
Corinne thought to herself.
"I wonder if we'll be able to get some of our groove on in
Tokyo?" asked a deep male voice with a hint of fire riding the
waves of it. The voice belonged to Damon Struthers, a strikingly
tall man with deep black hair and stormy chocolate eyes that
smoked when he was angry or trying very hard for a girl to notice
him.
"Are you really thinking of starting something with someone
else, when we're going to be so close so soon?" asked another male
voice, this belonging to a man of about six feet five inches with
brown wavy hair and light brown eyes.
"Why not Jeffrey?" asked Damon of one of his best friends,
Jeffrey Dannon.
"Well," started a third voice, answering for Jeffrey. "It'd
be wrong."
"Ugh," said Damon. He sighed heavily, and then smiled
lightly at the two. "I know, I just, you know…we really don't know
how long this could take. It's going to be torture to sit there,
to know what we know, and to not… you know… do anything about it."
"I know," said Gabriel Humphrey who was head butting six
feet, had straw colored hair, and bright forest green eyes.
The men sat together, looking forlorn for awhile. Any of
them could have had their choice of girls; unfortunately, their
hearts had all belonged to others, for longer than they cared to
think about.
The car that Jeffrey was driving finally stopped behind
another and the three got out.
"Well, Corinne wants the tour. How about you guys?" asked
Lily as she saw the guys saunter up to her and her friend.
"Sounds good," said Damon.
"Yeah, let's make it a bit long though. I need the chance to
stretch my legs from driving," said Jeffrey.
"Oh, by the way," began Damon innocently as the group made
their way upstairs, "I call a big room."
"Well, there are five rooms. And luckily three of them are
on one side of the house, two are on the other. So, you guys get
to fight over the three together," answered Lily.
"You can have the biggest one of the two on are side, Lily,"
volunteered Corinne. "You're going to need the space for your
morning meetings with Hunter."
"Thanks, Corinne. I really appreciate that."
"No problem, Lil."
"Now that we've spent the first night here, there's some
little rules we need to talk about," began Lily in the morning
after the group officially settled in their new home. "If you eat
my Snickers bar, I will kill you. Now, does anyone else have any
other business?" she ended sweetly after her face had darkened to
a menacing color for a moment.
Part 3: You Call this Random?
Walking down the street Travis smiled up at the sun. It was
Monday, the sun was shining again, and even though it was cold, it
felt good today.
*I wonder what's going on with me today,* Travis thought to
himself. *I just feel really good, really… alive. Mmm, I like it.*
Travis was still thinking to himself while he was standing
waiting for a crosswalk signal to change when someone bumped into
him from behind.
"Oh, I'm so sorry," said a soft feminine voice. "You will
excuse me, won't you?"
Travis smiled sweetly at her, "Not a problem, here let me
pick that up for you," he offered as he bent over, picking up the
suitcase the woman had been carrying when she bumped into him.
*She's kinda cute.* Travis thought to himself. *Hmm...*
"My name is Travis. Travis Watson. What's yours?"
"Travis? Travis Watson?! Oh my God! I haven't seen you in
almost nine years!!" gushed the woman as her eyes had gone big
after he introduced himself.
Suddenly she hugged him hugely then backed away blushing.
"I'm sorry. You probably don't remember me. You used to date
my cousin, Jessica. My name is Lily Bates."
