Chapter 3: The Unknown Invitation
Kakyuu sat in class the next day after the concert trying to think, their class teacher came in.
"We have three new students, I'm sure you would know them, please treat them normally, not specially," the teacher said as Seiya, Taiki and Yaten walked in, half the girls started screaming, "Excuse me! I thought I said not to treat them specially!" the teacher shouted.
Yaten smiled at Kakyuu who smiled back, the teacher carried on, "Please take a seat if they are vacant."
Yaten walked over and plunked himself down next to Kakyuu, Seiya sat behind Usagi and Taiki sat in front of Makoto.
"Ohayo Kakyuu, how are you feeling?" Yaten whispered.
"Ohayo, I'm fine now arigato for asking," Kakyuu whispered back smiling.
Outside Kakyuu settled down under a tree reading a book, her lips moved silently, she heard someone sit down next to her, Kakyuu ignored the person.
"Ohayo Kakyuu baby," Kwan said running his hand through Kakyuu's ponytail, Kakyuu carried on reading.
"Ohayo Kakyuu baby," Kwan repeated, once again Kakyuu ignored him.
Kakyuu ran her hand over her ponytail making it go over her shoulder, away from Kwan's touch.
"Go away," Kakyuu said, she stood up and walked away from Kwan.
Kwan watched her go and smiled to himself, he had a plan.
Grasping her book tightly, Kakyuu headed for a bench, she collapsed down, clutching her heart breathing heavily, when Kwan touched her, Kakyuu felt pain through her heart, and it felt like someone was trying to steal her heart away.
Calming down slightly Kakyuu removed her hand from her heart and sighed, she picked her book up and tried reading but it was no use.
"Care if I take a seat?" Someone asked her, Kakyuu looked up; it was Seiya from the Three Lights.
"Sure," Kakyuu shifted along and let Seiya sit down, she felt people watch them from the bushes.
"You better now? At the concert you seemed very pale," Seiya said looking at Kakyuu; he felt a fragrance of his Princess.
"I'm fine arigato," Kakyuu replied closing her eyes.
"You do know that you're always free to talk to us, we like you a lot, you don't treat us specially, you treat us like you've known us for ages," Seiya commented.
"I know, it's one of my special talents," Kakyuu said with a grin.
"We like people who are like that, I can always give you a backstage pass whenever," Seiya added.
"Arigato Seiya-kun," Kakyuu said resting her head against the cold bench.
Kakyuu closed her eyes and reran the whole incident with Iron Mouse again; her mother wanted her alive, her real mother, Queen Moku from the planet. Kakyuu shook her head.
"I'm living on Earth, and I will always live on Earth," Kakyuu said aloud to herself, she closed her eyes and fell asleep.
By the time Kakyuu woke up the sun had only risen, she sighed and kept still she said to herself.
"Now, wherever I go, Iron Mouse will follow me to take my star seed, what is my star seed about?" Kakyuu asked, no one replied.
Kakyuu washed herself and instead of putting her hair up in a ponytail, Kakyuu did a French plait.
Kakyuu walked down the stairs to collect the post, she was surprised when she had two for herself.
Kakyuu braced herself, ready for another letter from Iron Mouse, but instead it was an unsigned one.
It read:
To Kakyuu
Will you go to the Krystal Ball? A week on Saturday, at Juuban High School, I shall meet you there.
Before I forget, it's a masked ball. Love from the one that love's you.
Kakyuu read is and smiled, she packed it in her bag and tore open the other one; she widened her eyes as it was another invitation to the ball, she skimmed it quickly, and that person must have written it twice, it was exactly the same.
"Kakyuu-chan? Why are you smiling so strangely today?" Usagi asked suspiciously.
"That is for me to know, and for you to find out!" Kakyuu said teasingly.
Usagi tried to hit Kakyuu over the head but Kakyuu ducked, Kakyuu stopped, her eyes flashed as she looked ahead.
"What is i-" Usagi started but stopped, Mamoru was walking towards then, immediately Kakyuu linked arms with Usagi and forced Usagi to keep walking, Mamoru grabbed Kakyuu's arm but Kakyuu shook him off, he grabbed her again but this time someone else grabbed his shoulder.
"If I was you, I'll leave her alone," Seiya said sharply, he tightened his grip on his shoulder.
Mamoru turned around looking like he was going to punch Seiya but Kakyuu cut in, "remember what I said Mamoru, hurt any of my friends." Kakyuu trailed off on purpose.
Mamoru widened his eyes not believing his ears, he let go of Kakyuu's shoulder who turned around to face Seiya, Taiki and Yaten.
"Arigato," Kakyuu said bowing.
"That's ok," Yaten said.
"Come on Usagi-chan, we better go to school, care if we walk with you three?" Kakyuu asked.
"That's fine come on," Taiki said deliberately ignoring Mamoru.
The five of them turned around to walk away but Mamoru grasped Usagi's shoulder and said, "Usako."
In a flash, Kakyuu spun around and dug her finger nails into Mamoru's hand, he cried out in pain and removed his hand quickly, and Kakyuu smiled and carried on walking away.
"Good one Kakyuu," Yaten said grinning, Kakyuu grinned back flashing her white teeth.
"So, did any of you hear about the ball that's going on next Saturday?" Kakyuu asked, apparently they didn't so Kakyuu explained, "Well I got a letter today from someone and there is a masked ball going on at our school Juuban High."
"Cool, I might go actually," Taiki said Yaten and Seiya nodded.
"Usagi-chan? Are you going to go?" Kakyuu asked, Usagi looked up and nodded.
They arrived at the school with hardly any time at all, when Usagi walked in the door, Ami, Minako, Makoto crowded around her, Seiya, Yaten, Taiki and Kakyuu edged around them and sat down in their places.
Yaten turned around to Kakyuu and said, "So you're going to the ball thing I take it."
"Hai, I only found out in a letter," Kakyuu said looking out the window; her gaze went into the sky.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Kakyuu hummed the tune to 'Search for Your Love' as she walked home, her skirt rippled slightly in the wind, she walked alone.
She heard footsteps behind her; she carried on walking and went into the Crown Arcade one place she hardly ever goes to.
"Kakyuu-chan!" Usagi called out surprised to see her sister, Kakyuu smiled and waved but carried on walking.
"Excuse me, ma'am?" someone said behind her, it was Motoki.
"Konnichiwa Motoki," Kakyuu said smiling.
"Kakyuu-chan! Why are you here? I thought you didn't like it!" Motoki said surprised.
Kakyuu shrugged, "Someone was following me so I decided to come here and hang out in the back, please?"
"Sure, follow me," Motoki said leading the way to the back door, Kakyuu slipped in.
"Ok, just go into this room, it's an office and its empty so use that one," Motoki said and closed the door The back door, Kakyuu slipped in.
"Ok, just go into this room, it's an office and its empty so use that one," Motoki said and closed the door.
Kakyuu opened the door to the office and sat down breathing out, it had been close she knew that Kwan was following her for some reason, there had to be a reason to follow her. Kakyuu opened her bag and pulled out a bottle of water, she gulped some down being quite thirsty. She sighed and after 10 minutes, she gave up and left. *~*~*~*~*~*~* Kakyuu dried her hair with a towel quickly and then blow dried it, today it was a Sunday and she was going to go the disco. She pulled her hair up in a ponytail, she brushed on someone lip gloss and eye shadow, she wore a dark ruby top matching her eyes and a black long skirt, she had trainers on but her skirt covered it. Kakyuu was alone but she didn't mind, she just wanted to hang out and check the atmosphere. Little did she know that she was going to get attacked again. The Three Lights stood up in the balcony which looked down into the dance floor, Taiki spotted Kakyuu by herself. "Hey look, there's Kakyuu," Taiki said pointing to Kakyuu, Yaten and Seiya peered down at her. "I'm amazed she's alone, I would have thought she would have been with someone since Iron Mouse is trying to take her star seed," Seiya commented looking down again at her class mate. "I'm going down to talk to her!" Yaten said but Taiki grabbed his arm.
"Leave her, when she gets attacked, the Earth Senshi will come," Taiki said firmly, Yaten stopped walking. "Hai," Yaten replied staring down again at Kakyuu. Iron Mouse was at the main power switch, she grinned evilly and then flicked all the lights off. Lots of people screamed and ran out, Kakyuu stood there prepared for Iron Mouse. "Iron Mouse! Where are you!" Kakyuu called out in the darkness. "Can you believe it! She's actually asking Iron Mouse to appear!" Yaten hissed to Taiki and Seiya. "We better transform. Fast!" Seiya said. "Hai!" Taiki and Yaten said in unison.
"Fighter Star Power." "Maker Star Power." "Healer Star Power." "Make Up!" They all said. Instead of the Three Lights standing there, it was the Starlights. "So you're smart!" Iron Mouse said laughing walking up to Kakyuu. "It's not hard to figure out," Kakyuu said coolly, her eyes darted around for an attack. "Give up your star seed!" Iron Mouse said. "We will never let you!" Fighter shouted from the balcony. "Not you again," Iron Mouse groaned. "Don't forget us!" Sailor Moon shouted. "Not again!" Iron Mouse screamed. "Agent of love and justice pretty sailor Senshi Sailor Moon! In the name of the Moon, I will punish you!" Sailor Moon said posing. "We know!" Iron Mouse snapped. "Sailor Moon," Kakyuu said softly, she turned to the Starlights, "Starlights." "Hai?" Sailor Moon asked. "Sailor Moon," Kakyuu paused and shook her head, "Sailor Moon, Starlights arigato." Kakyuu walked forward to Iron Mouse. "What are you doing?" Fighter shouted. Kakyuu turned around, "I can't always let you save me, and I know they'll get me sooner or later, it makes no difference." Healer darted forward and pulled Kakyuu back at the speed of light. "Do you want to fight? We're your opponent," Fighter said to Iron Mouse but she disappeared in her phone booth. Healer released Kakyuu from her grasp, Kakyuu stood up straighter and walked away, and the others just watched her go, as they watched they saw a tear splash on the floor behind her. "Starlights, who are you?" Sailor Moon asked the Starlights. "We are in search for our lost princess, that is all you need to know," Fighter said, they leaped up and were gone in the speed of light.
Tears filled Kakyuu's eyes as she left the disco, she sat outside on the kerb with her head in her hands.
Seiya and Yaten saw her but left.
Kakyuu sat up and breathed out deeply and breathed in again, she blinked and stood up to go home.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*
For the next two days Kakyuu kept a low profile, she always went to the Crown Arcade after school now to prevent any followers, she wanted to keep her star seed until Saturday.
Kakyuu sat in the office reading a magazine Motoki walked in.
"Hey Kakyuu-chan, someone's looking for you," Motoki said.
Kakyuu froze, "Who?"
"This woman wearing a black hat and coat, she has white hair, she's pretty small," Motoki commented.
"Motoki do me a favour, let me out your back door please!" Kakyuu said jumping to her feet.
"If you want, next time explain to me what's happening ok? I'm your friend," Motoki said letting Kakyuu out the back door.
As soon as Kakyuu got outside she ran home locking herself in her room.
"Kakyuu!" Usagi shouted banging on her sister's room door.
"Hai?" Kakyuu said wearily.
"Please, unlock the door!" Usagi pleaded.
Kakyuu stood up and opened the door, Usagi crashed into the room.
"What's up?" Kakyuu asked.
"We were worried about you, you seem upset," Usagi said lightly.
"I'm fine," Kakyuu said shortly.
"Ok then, I'm going to Rei's I won't be back until very late," Usagi said sadly leaving the room.
Kakyuu sighed rolling over on her bed.
"Sailor Moon, who are you?" Kakyuu asked herself out loud, she whispered to herself, "Healer, Fighter, Maker, are you in touch with Queen Moku?"
Tears filled her eyes as she remembered Queen Moku.
Disclaimer's Note: I do not own Sailor Moon, gomen, I've changed the Starlights real personality.
Kakyuu sat in class the next day after the concert trying to think, their class teacher came in.
