Chapter 1: The Starlights Return
~~~~~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~~~~
Once again it was coming to the day that Amara dreaded the most. The day that the Starlights would return. Amara sighed as she looked at the calendar.
"Well, once again those annoying Starlights are coming back."
'Hmm at least I don't have to see their ugly faces till Friday!' She thought to herself.
"Mara-mama!" Hotaru screeched from across the room completely startling Amara.
"What? What? What, is it?" Amara said with a shocked tone, much to Hotaru's surprise.
"Oh, sorry Mara-mama I just wanted to see if you were up here." Hotaru replied innocently.
"Amara, Amara!" Michelle yelled while running up the stairs to the room.
Amara sighed, put her hand on her head and said, "I think this is going to be a long day!"
"Amara, guess what Serena just told me. the Starlights are going to return. TODAY!!"
"WHAT?! But today's only Wednesday!" Amara shouted with disbelief.
"Well, they were told that they could come down sooner because Princess Kakyuu-hyme wouldn't need them for a little while." Trista replied calmly, also appearing in the room.
"Well then" Hotaru cut in.
"Wont we need to go meet them soon?" She said with questioning eyes.
"Yes" "No!" Amara blurted out interrupting Michelle.
"If you want to go you guys can go but I'm not going!"
"Really, Mara-mama?" Hotaru questioned with big violet watery eyes.
Amara quickly glanced from Hotaru's watery, pleading eyes to Michelle and Trista, which were already doing their techniques as well. Trista proceeded waiting with her hands on her hips and a daring look in her eyes staring at Amara. And Michelle was using her sweet puppy dog eyes soon followed by those hard worked on crocodile tears.
Feeling quite a bit uneasy Amara took a step back and kept trying to keep herself from giving in. But a pair of pleading eyes from those two and a death glare from Trista was enough to make even the toughest of people give in.
"Fine, but why do I have come anyway?" Amara finally questioned.
"Because. it's your duty as a senshi to show up to greet them with us."
"Plus the bus isn't running today and we'd need a ride there." Hotaru added in to Michelle's little speech and with one last sigh Amara picked up her car keys and headed downstairs to wait for Trista, Hotaru, and Michelle in the car.
"Don't worry we'll be right down." Michelle yelled right before hearing the front door close.
"Well that went well." Hotaru giggled.
"Yes it did go well Hotaru, but now we just need to find some way to get Amara to lighten up to the Starlights some how." Michelle said wearily.
"Come on you two we can plan something later but right now we have to get going." Trista said rushing them down the stairs and out the door.
~~~~~~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~~~~~
"So were am I headed?" Amara called to Michelle which was sitting beside her.
"Umm. turn here, your going to Flora Lake."
"Ok but what are we going to do after we meet up with everyone?" Amara questioned blandly.
"Well Ami and Lita said that they're gonna have a picnic at the top of one of the hills once everyone arrives." Michelle said with a thoughtful smile.
"Yay! I can't wait!" Hotaru squealed from the back seat.
"I'm sure you can't." Amara said with a slight smile.
No-one really noticed Michelle's quickening silence though. At least not over Hotaru's giggling.
'Oh, how am I going to get Amara to lighten up to those three especially Seiya! Maybe if we stuck the four of them some where for awhile.'
"Michi-mama?"
'Or maybe if we all just left them alone?' Michelle thought.
"Michi-mama?"
"I'll take care of this." Amara said with a widening grin.
"Wait! Hotaru don't ever do this unless it's absolutely necessary and Amara not to hard it does hurt you know." Trista said well aware of what Amara was about to do since she had done it to her this morning.
Hotaru just watched quietly as Amara slowly snuck up behind the car to the other side and then she stopped behind Michelle. She then raised one hand with another grin on her face and flicked Michelle on the ear.
"Oww! What was that for?!" Michelle shouted glaring at Amara, when her glare was interrupted by small snickers and short laughs coming from behind her and not much to there surprise it was Hotaru.
"Let's go you three it's almost time." Trista said with a smile on her face still looking at the shocked Michelle before her.
"Alright." Amara sighed her smile fading.
Before anyone had even realized Hotaru was missing they spotted her far in front of them already standing on one of the hills overlooking the lake.
"Come on slow pokes I see them." Hotaru yelled playfully waving her hands.
"We're coming." Amara yelled starting to run to Hotaru with a slim smile.
Once Amara, Trista, and Michelle got up to the top of the hill they stopped to catch there breath's but also to see how beautiful Flora Lake really was. Almost no one is ever really there most of the time and the lake is always clean and sparkling, to Michelle's liking, surrounded by light flowerbeds.
Just like the lake, the grass is nice and neat but cut just right to match the flowers height plus the tree's are always full of life. But most importantly and Hotaru's favorite part is the hills are smooth, making it easy for someone to role down one without getting hurt.
This is the scouts, Starlights, and the Outers absolute favorite place to be. It's almost like it's there's because there's never any people around. Suddenly a soft breeze swayed everything including Amara's hair making her smile, happy to feel the breeze being the senshi of the wind.
~~~~~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~~~
"Ooo, is that the food for the picnic Ami? It looks good!" Hotaru said excitedly.
"Yes it is Hotaru and thank you, Lita helped me with everything." Ami replied putting down the last of the cups and filling it with another drink.
"I agree with you Hotaru." Serena said starting to drool.
"It does look good! Hey? Michelle, Trista, where's Amara?" Serena asked glancing back and forth quickly.
"She's up there." Michelle replied pointing to the top of the hill.
But everyone had been so busy talking including Darien that no one had noticed the three stars streaking across the sky. Amara only didn't notice since she had her eye's closed but if she would have opened them she would have realized that one of those stars were headed strait for her and that the other two had already landed near the picnic table forming into Taiki and Yaten. Who were now walking towards the group of girls and Darien.
"HEY!" Mina yelled excitedly pouncing on Yaten.
"Uh...hi." Yaten replied now lying on the ground looking up at the blue eyed blonde.
All the laughter that was now coming from the rest of the girls had caused Amara to open her eye's but not in time. The star which was now Seiya had just crashed right into her causing them both to tumble down the other side of the hill.
"YOU IDIOT!" Amara managed to yell still rolling down the hill tangled with Seiya.
"Hey, wasn't that Mara-mama?" Hotaru said looking at the group.
"Uh-oh!" Everyone said in unison running up the hill and starting downwards to the two at the bottom.
"GET OFF ME!" Amara yelled at Seiya who was sprawled out across her.
"S..Sorry!" Seiya replied trying to get his balance back.
"Why don't you watch were your landing!"
"Ok ok Sorry, I didn't mean to hit you I just wasn't paying attention." Seiya replied still to dizzy to get up.
"And will you GET UP ALREADY before I kick you!" she shouted.
"Oh sorry." Seiya said and quickly but wearily got off of Amara.
"Are you guys ok?" Michelle questioned the two, which were still both lying on the ground.
"Yeah I'm ok." Both of them said causing a threatening glare from Amara to Seiya making him flinch.
Soon everyone was standing over them in a circle just watching as they slowly started to get up.
"Uh... I could use a hand here please." Amara stated.
"Oh, I'm sorry." Michelle replied as they all started to help them up.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~MEANWHILE~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Back at the picnic table a little boy had wandered over to the table that was full of food but not a person was insight. The boy was about five so naturally the sight amazed him but when he spotted Ami's shinny lab kit he just couldn't help himself, he grabbed a bunch of the different colored tubes of liquid and started pouring them into the cups. Then he mixed them all up, grabbed one of Lita's cookies and ran away laughing.
~~~~~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Come on you guys once you get to the picnic table you can eat!"
"And sit down Serena."
"Yeah that to Trista but mainly EAT!"
"Why don't you come help me hold up Seiya so you can stuff your big mouth sooner, Serena!" Rei remarked struggling to get Seiya down the hill to the table.
"Ok... hey wait a minute, that was an insult! You can carry him on your own for that!"
"Fine, be that way you're the one that will have to wait longer." Rei said sarcastically.
"Oh, hand him here." Taiki said in frustration.
"Ok." Rei replied and pushed Seiya over to Taiki.
"Gezze, I'm not some toy doll here take it easy." Seiya whined as he stumbled over to Taiki.
Amara enjoying the little show started to grin and no one noticed because she was walking behind the group.
"Finally we're here!" Serena smiled.
Amara and Seiya were the first to sit down but they didn't pick up their drinks yet.
"Oh YUM, these cookies are sooo GOOD Lita!" Serena cried out swinging her arms.
"Thank you!"
"Hey! Serena, I'm soaked!" Yaten yelled.
"Oh, sorry Yaten."
Serena once again wasn't watching what she was doing and she knocked over both Amara and Seiya's cups, right into Yaten's lap.
Amara just got up and walked down another hill right next to their table and sat at the bottom looking into the lake.
Seiya was the only one that noticed Amara was gone and started to get up thinking this could be his chance to try and get her to lighten up to him, but before continuing he glanced back to see if anyone else had noticed. They hadn't, instead they were all busy talking, drinking, and cleaning up the rest of Yaten's clothes as best they could.
So he continued to walk towards the slope of the hill but tripped over a rock and started tumbling for the second time down a hill and once again he slammed into Amara toppling her over.
"What is with you?!" Amara shouted noticing Seiya had knocked her down.
"Not even Serena's this clumsy, that's the second time in one day!" Amara yelled at Seiya, which was once again sprawled across her.
"Sorry again but I tripped over something and fell."
"Well you really need to start watching were you're going." Amara said starting to calm down with a slight breeze.
"Yeah I guess I should start to pay more attention."
"Hey Seiya, I've got something that you can pay more attention to..."
"What?" Seiya questioned blindly.
"How about the fact that you're STILL ON TOP OF ME!" Amara yelled in his ear.
"Ow ow ow...sorry." Seiya managed out still rubbing his ear and getting off of Amara.
"Yeah, yeah lets just go get something to eat."
"Ok." Seiya said and followed Amara up the hill.
