Chapter 3
Arrival and reunions
~ On Sunday ~
Ami had hopped on the bullet train that would take her to Domino. Taking one last glance at the city that she had protected numerous times, Ami held back her tears and stepped onto the train.
@@@@ Upon arrival at Domino station @@@@
Ami looked at the piece of paper that her mother had given her. Asking around, she finally arrived at Mr Motou's Game shop. Pushing the door open, Ami stepped in. A short elderly man stared back at her. "Hey, grandpa." Ami said, gently.
Mr Motou reeled back in shock for a second, before composing himself. Stepping out of the counter, he went forward and pulled Ami into a hug. Stepping back, Mr Motou took a long look at Ami. It had been almost ten years since he had seen her.
Just then, Yuugi stepped into the Game shop, obviously coming home from school. His eyes widened at the unexpected visitor. "Ami?" he stuttered. Ami looked back and smiled at her cousin. "Yes, Yuugi, it's me." Kneeling down to his height, Ami curdled Yuugi into a hug.
"Err . . . Yuugi, Want to introduce us?" Jonouchi questioned. Yuugi blinked and blushed, "Guys, my cousin, Ami. Ami, my friends, Jonouchi, Honda, Anzu." Ami smiled, "Pleasure."
Anzu blinked, "Ami? Is that you?" she asked. Ami nodded, "It's been a while, Anzu, hasn't it?" Anzu went forward and hugged her childhood best friend. "Where have you been all this while?" Anzu asked. Ami stiffened before answering, "Tokyo." noting her saddened eyes, Anzu asked, "Something happened over there?" Ami nodded, "Divorced parents and four former best friends."
Ami sweatdropped at the confused looks everyone was giving her, question marks popping out of their heads. "Long story." she summarized.
**************************************************************************** **********
The Next Day
"Happy birthday, Yuugi!" The whole Yu-Gi-Oh gang (yes people, even the Yamis. Don't ask how.) had gathered in Solomon's Game Shop.
"Thanks, guys." Yuugi answered shyly, a blush spreading over his cheeks.
After that, everyone was sitting comfortably in the living room.
"Happy 17th birthday, Yuugi."
"Thanks, Grandpa. But where is my . . . "
Ami giggled, "Your so-called 'present' is me, cousin. Guess, I've made it just on time for your birthday, ne?"
"No. way. It can't be . . . Hime!" "Princess!" " Yami, Bakura, Marik and Kaiba thought. (I made Bakura and Marik a whole LOT nicer in the fic.)
Ryou just kept quiet. "There is something familiar about that girl." he wondered.
Ami chuckled inwardly, as she picked up the previous thought mentally.
*My koi is still as quiet as ever, isn't he Bakura?*
**Unfortunately, yes, princess.**
*Cut the mind link Bakura. The 5 of us have a *lot* of catching up to do.*
**Understood, princess**
*Marik, is you aibou's sister home?*
**No, hime, Isis is back in Egypt. Why?"
*Tell the other 3 that we will be meeting at your house after the whole thing*
**Hai, hime.**
Then, Anzu asked the critical question. "What are we going to do after this?"
Kaiba provided the answer. "Pool party at my place. Mokuba's idea."
"Speaking of the little guy, where is he?" Jonouchi inquired.
"Preparing the pool party, mutt." Kaiba retorted.
"Why you . . ." Jonouchi gritted his teeth.
Ami sighed.
*Those two never change.*
**You have no idea how right you are, hime.**
*Yami, you mean after 5000 years, those two 'lovebirds' are still at it?*
** If you put it that way, yes, hime.**
Ami smacked her forehead and yelled, "WOULD YOU TWO JUST CUT IT OUT ALREADY?'
All heads turned to Ami and blinked.
Bakura whispered to Marik "Same old princess."
Marik whispered back, "She never fails to amaze me."
"Bakura, Marik, I heard that."
Marik muttered, "Damn, forgot she has extraordinary hearing."
Anzu clapped her hands. "Since Mokuba has prepared the pool party, we shouldn't let the little guy down, should we? Meet in front of the game Shop in one and half hours later. Okay, people, shoo."
After a few Fines, Whatevers, and three "I hate water"s from three spirit Yamis, the whole group trooped out, leaving the four Motous (including Yami) in peace.
Ami tuned to her cousin. "Yuugi, you better get ready."
"Sure, cous." Yuugi answered before skipping into his room.
Ami smiled and before she went up to her room, she sent a mental message to the three spirit Yamis to "get back to your damn Millennium items and you three are going to the pool party, Protectors or not."
The three spirits sighed. They knew better than to argue with their princess.
After two "Hai, hime."s and one "Yes, princess.", the three spirits returned to their respective items.
Once in her room, Sailor Pluto paid her a visit.
Ami smiled at the ageless Time Guardian and asked, "I assume the transformation daggers are with you?'
"You are right, Ami." Sailor Pluto answered and handed her a felt case.
"Thank, Pluto. I am sure these would come in handy." Ami replied. Sailor Pluto smiled and disappeared back to the Time gates.
Ami snapped her fingers and the case disappeared (sub space again). Opening her closet, she started packing her swimming stuff.
After packing, Ami pulled out a musical locket (think the one Sailor Moon has) and opened it. The locket was silvery white and elegant, so it is easily mistaken for a compact mirror. The tune "A Whole New World" (I don't own this song either) was played.
"Darn you, Ryou. When are you going to remember? It hurts too darn much." Ami sighed as she shut the locket and put it back around her neck. "I hate my life."
************************************************************************
SailorStar9: Phew, finally. This is like the longest chapter by far.
Bakura: Who is the sailor senshi protector anyway?
SailorStar9: Which sailor senshi's name translation is firefly?
Bakura: Oh. . . You mean Sat . . .
SailorStar9: Zip it or you would give the rest away!
Cheeky_bear00: You should be able to guess the main coupling now. *winks*
Ryou and Ami: Wait. You mean to say the main coupling is . . .us?
SailorStar9: Yeah.
Ryou and Ami: *Looks at each other and blushes a crimson red*.
SailorStar9: Kawaii!
SailorStar9: Can somebody do the fricking disclaimer?
Yuugi: *Looks at his sister and white-haired friend blushing like there is no tomorrow* I will do it! Dun own, dun sue.
Oh yeah, F.Y.I, Sailor Astral and Knight Astral are also the princess and prince of the Astral Realm.
SailorStar9: Like I said in the beginning, thank you, all reviewers. Anyway, on with the fic.
