~Chapter 3~ Unwanted Guests
"Miaka, calm down. Panicking is not going to help Yui. Tell us exactly what happened." Taka said soothingly as his hands rested on her shoulders. Her eyes looked at the ground while a sigh escaped her lips, "I called Yui-Chan and was about to tell her what had happened when suddenly I noticed that she didnt sound like herself. Then I heard a voice from her house sceraming at her to get off the phone." Tears began to build as she recalled these memories to thought and went on saying, "Something terrible has happened to Yui-Chan, I can feel it." Takiko then whispered something to Suzuno after hearing this story and after a moment they both nod. "We better see whats happening. We should travel to Yui's house." Takiko suggested. "Yes! We have to hurry though, it looks as if it were about to rain." Miaka added as she peeked out a window at the gray threatening clouds in the sky. "No, not you Miaka. Its best if you stay here." Suzuno calmly responded.
Miaka's eyes filled with confusion. "But why shouldn't I go? She's my best friend!" she argued. "We understand this Miaka, but it is in your best interests to stay here." Takiko said as her blue eyes looked at the young hysterical priestess. "But WHY?! I CAN'T JUST SIT AROUND AND DO NOTHING WHILE I KNOW MY FRIEND'S IN DANGER!" Miaka shouted. Suzuno sighed as she stood and whispered to Nuriko in his ear, "Please, keep her here until Takiko and I at least return." He nodded as Suzuno motioned for Takiko to come. Miaka was about to run after them as they moved towards the door but Nuriko suddenly stopped her, "I'm sorry Miaka. I know how badly you wish to help Yui but right now, the best you could be of help is by staying put until they come back."
When Takiko and Suzuno had closed the door behind them, everyone started talking. "Miaka, how do we know we can trust those two?" Tasuki asked with suspision in his voice. "To be honest with you, I really don't think you can, no da." Chichiri replied as he sat on the couch in thought. Everyone turned and stared at the monk with curiosity. Feeling the eyes, he went on, "Well you see, no da, when they were here, I sensed a strange power coming from them both, no da. Suzuno had a strong power, but Takiko's was even stronger, no da. I think there's something that they are not telling us, no da."
Miaka's green eyes widened. Surprisingly, the question of what side they were on never really crossed her mind. She just assumed that since they were the first two priestesses in the book, they were good. As she thought about that, she was torn, for the memory of her battle with Yui seemed to tag along in her thoughts. She had thought that since Yui was her friend, she would never hurt Miaka. How wrong she had been then, she could be wrong now about the priestesses. 'Could it be the power the gods left within them when they coupled?' she wondered to herself. 'Maybe thats the power Chichiri sensed.' While Miaka sat in her thoughts, the senshi were in a heated discusion.
"They seemed to be nice enough to trust! If they really wanted to hurt us, I'm sure they would have tried already!" Taka argued. "I still say that those two can't be trusted! How well do you know them, huh Taka?" Tasuki asked with a glare in his amber eyes. When Taka lowered his head and didn't respond, Tasuki concluded with, "See? My point exactly! They could be working with the Seriyuu Seven for all we know!" Hotohori then looked up from his gaze at the floor and commented, "Now now, Tasuki. Lets not jump to conclusions. It's true we know nothing of them, but then again we also knew nothing of each other when we first met. How did you know you could trust me? You had to put your faith in me. And that is what we must do for these girls. Have faith in them." Nuriko sighed with a loving tone in his sigh as he added in a swooning voice, "Isn't he such a dream boat? Whatever my highness says I'll go along with." As Hotohori made a face of disgust, Chiriko then suggested, "Why don't we just wait until they come back. By then, we will see how much we can trust them." A doorbell then rang at that very moment, snapping Miaka out of her thoughts.
All of the senshi shut up and looked at Miaka. She stood and took afew steps towards the door when a hand landed on her shoulder. "Miaka, it might be them. I should get it." Tasuki warned as his hand remained on her shoulder. Her own hand gently raised towards his and brushed it away as she said, "Whether its them or not, I will have to see who it is. And if it is them, we will have to confront them sooner or later." Tasuki seemed surprised at this statement and so did everyone else, except Taka, who just walked beside her and smiled with encouragement. She took a deep breath as her trembling hand gripped the icy cold handle of the wooden door. Taka's gentle hand held her other hand as though signaling that he was there with her, and wasn't planning to leave her side.
She then called, "Who is it?" as she turned the knob and pulled the door towards her. She gasped as the Seriyuu Senshi stood on her doorstep. "Nice to see you again, priestess of Suzaku." Nakago said with an evil, twisted smile. Taka charged at him but a blue light flashed when he reached a certain point and caused him to fly back into the wall behind Miaka. She turned as her green eyes widened, "TAKA!" Suboshi's yo-yo like weapon quickly wrapped around her body as she was turned. The other senshi all tried to charge at them but a bolt of lightening struck the floor before them all.
Soi glared at them, "Do not move, Suzaku Warriors!" A small child like being floated next to Miaka who struggled to break free. "If you take a step closer, not only will you all be electricuted but your priestess will also suffer." Miboshi warned as he held his spinning top like thing next to her neck. All the senshi screamed her name as they realized they were powerless and could do nothing to stop them as they vanished in a blinding blue light. From down the street came Takiko and Suzuno running. When they reached there, they found all the senshi very upset. Suddenly Tasuki looked up at thme both at their clueless faces. "You.." he growled as he slowly stepped in their direction. "Whats wrong Mr Tasuki? What happened here?" Takiko questioned with confusion. His amber eyes glistened with anger, "What happened?! WHAT HAPPENED?!" Chichiri's arms appeared around Tasuki's. "Tasuki, calm down, no da! It wasn't their fault!" the monk reasoned but the enraged warrior broke free and charged at Takiko. "IT WAS ALL YOUR FAULT! BOTH OF YOU ARE GOING TO WISH YOU GUYS HAD NEVER COME BACK!" he screamed as he pulled out his tessen, still running in Takiko's direction.
