Chapter 3
* 3 months Later *

Su sat on her private plane that contained little rooms and a proper bathroom to Molmol shaking like a leaf and clutching to Naru and Motoko's hand. Then Naru let out a scream.
"Ok, come on Su," she said rubbing her hand softly. "You'll be fine. Stop panicking, it'll be a synch." Said Naru while rubbing her hand as Su let go of Motoko's.
"You know what? Your right Naru," said Su as she undone her seatbelt and stood up. "There's nothing to be nervous about. It'll be over so fast the time will fly by, I won't even notice." She said forming a fist and jumping up and down. "You should try starting to be queen on the way home...so you're at least a little prep'd up for it. I'm sure Shinobu will help you" she said gleefully as she looked at the seat behind her, where Keitaro, Shinobu and Kitsune sat.
"Yeah sure I'll help it'll be easy. Come on then Su, lets go practice. There's a little lounge down here," said Shinobu as she quickly got up from her seat. As Su stood and waited Keitaro began to think. "Here, you know that you'll have to stay in Molmol once you become queen don't you?" Said Keitaro gleefully...but his smile soon changed as he saw the look of horror on Su's face as well as Naru's before he caught another roundhouse punch to the face.
"What...what do you mean stay in Molmol? No one mentioned anything about that...JULES!!!" Su screamed at the top of her voice. Jules came running through as fast has her legs could carry her, Jules Asano was a beautiful, 15 year old maid that had heard of Su's misfortune and gave up her whole life to serve Su as queen. Jules had gone through life without any schooling so she devoted her life to helping Su. "Yes m'lady?" She said as she bowed to her and said "Is there something wrong?"
"I know this has nothing to do with you, but will you find out a way to contact my sister until I speak to her... its very important!" said Su angrily as she sat on the floor and folded her arms. "Yes m'lady, of course. I'll be right back." she said quickly as she hurried out the room into the little area at the front of the plane. Su turned round to see the look of horror in everyone's face.
"Oh come on Su, aren't you over reacting." Said Motoko. "No Motoko...I am not over reacting...if I knew that I had to stay over there I would never have took the stupid job! This is serious...I won't want to be away from all of you...I won't have this. She lied to me and it is unacceptable." Said su angrily and seriously as she unfolded her arms. "I'll just miss you all so much... that's all." She said rubbing her eyes. At that moment Jules came running into the room.
"M'lady Ms. Marlene is on hold on the phone. If you'd like to step this way, I'll show you to the phone." She said happily. "Thank you very much. You're being very helpful." Said Su.
"Your welcome. This way please" said Jules as she once again headed towards the room and Su followed. Naru looked at everyone in shock. "Did you see that? This is gonna be a bad influence on Su. You know what's she like when she doesn't get something she wants already...can you imagine what it'll be like once she's queen and they bring her the wrong milkshake? I tell you one thing I wouldn't like to be Jules in that position." Said Naru with deep concern although laughing at the same time.
"Jules is beautiful though isn't she? Such great looks and..." said Keitaro as Naru smacked him across the face. "What'd I say?" yelled Keitaro with a sound of pain as he skidded along the floor. "Yeah, I thought she was beautiful. I wish I looked like that..." Said Shinobu looking at the spot where she had stood before leaving the room. Naru looked at Shinobu with a great smile on her face.
"You will one day Shinobu...don't you worry. You'll soon be getting married to the luckiest guy on earth." Complimented Naru as she took Shinobu's hand. The silence was soon broken by a loud crash and a scream let out by Su. "Argh! I hate that girl." Shouted Su and she came running out of the room with the phone still in her hand as she had ripped it off the wall.
"Please m'lady calm down. I'm sure Ms.Marlene didn't mean to offend you. She may have been afraid of how you may react...so she was thinking of how you would feel." Said Jules calmly yet assuring. Su turned round and stared at Jules as she bowed. "no one asked for your opinion, go and take a break Jules while I talk to my friends." She said quickly with a sound of anger in her voice. Jules quickly bowed to Su and ran out the room. Shinobu looked at Su and shook her head, then ran after Jules into the other room.
"Su I think your taking this too far, you really hurt Jules. She was only doing as you asked." Said Motoko, everyone started to nod their heads apart from Su, who was doing to complete opposite by crying. She looked up at everyone. "I just don't wanna be away from you guys...your all I have left except from Jules and Marlene* sniff * said Su as she continued to cry some more. Keitaro walked towards her and said, "Come on now Su, it's not like you to be down. We'll always be there for you, whether its here in Molmol or on the phone, you'll never be alone." he said hugging her tightly as they heard ' This is your pilot speaking...within the next half hour we will be arriving in our destination and would give you this time to get back to your seats. Your co-operation is fully appreciated.' Said the pilot as Su let out a scream of excitement.

* Meanwhile in the other room *

"Come on Jules...I'm sure she didn't mean to shout at you ...she's just a little upset because her sister lied to her." Said Shinobu patting Jules on the back to try and make her feel better.
"I'm a useless maid...* sniff * all I wanted to do was help M'lady and I do it wrong. I can't do anything right" Shinobu looked at Jules sadly as Su came in the room. "I'm so sorry Jules. I didn't mean to be so angry with you. It wasn't your fault and I yelled at you." Said Su as she walked over and gave her a hug. "You're doing a great job." At that Jules looked up at Su with a big smile on her face."
"Thank you m'lady, I'll get right back to work." She said as she quickly stood up. "Come on now before the plane starts to land...we don't want anything to happen to you now do we?" she said smiling. Su and Shinobu then ran out the room with Jules soon quickly following.

* Now landing in the country of Molmol *
* * *

"Wow you guys its beautiful!" shouted Su as she ran out of the plane and down the stairs. She quickly dropped her suitcases and started to jump up and down. Everyone else came running down the plane stairs and was jumping for glee as they had finally made it to the country of Molmol, except Keitaro who wandered slowly out of the plane carrying about 7 suitcases and he soon fell down the stairs. * Hee hee * Su was twirling around in circles as though she had just entered a paradise. As she stopped she noticed a group of 8 beautiful women wearing black suits, a white shirt and a black tie as though they were with the FBI all walked over to Su and bowed. Su looked at them surprised and said "eh...I'm Kaolla Su...who are you?" Naru, Keitaro, Motoko and Shinobu all stood whispering to each other and then fell silent as one of the women stood up.
"My name is Usuki. We are your guards for around the palace m'lady, I picked these women out myself and assure you they will protect you even if it causes them the loss of their life. Malerna is waiting in the palace for you." She said as she bowed down with the others. Jules came running out of the plane and ran up beside Su. She looked down at all the guards and started staring closely at one of the guards before beginning to speak. "...Kohaku? Is that you?" she said shocked as one of the guards looked up and looked as though she was about to cry. The guard quickly stood up and pushed past the others as she ran and grabbed Jules and burst into tears and she hugged and squeezed her tightly. Jules didn't know what to do at first until she came to her senses and soon started to cry also as she hugged her back. Everybody just stood looking at each other until someone spoke.
"Eh...sorry to interrupt but how do you know each other?" said Nary puzzled as she looked at Kohaku and Jules. Kohaku let go of Jules slowly and wiped her eyes. The rest of the guards stood up in shock. The head guard got up and was ready to run over to Kohaku for stepping out of line. Su soon jumped in the road. "No...please, just leave them...she has my permission." The minute Su finished speaking the guard walked slowly back into line and bowed down. Kohaku soon spoke.
"I'm sorry. My name is Kohaku Asano, I am 19 years of age..."she said as Keitaro managed to butt in quickly. "Isn't that Kohaku's second name? I'm sure it is..."he said scratching his head.
"Yes that's right. That's how we know each other. When we were younger my family were split up, as my father and mother were divorced. They had only 2 children so one child would go with one parent and the other with the other parent and would never see each other again." She said still holding Jules hand. "Kohaku was too young to remember this...the only thing she was told was that she had a sister. I did run away at one point to try and find my sister...but got lost and was lost out in the rain for 4 days without food or water. I got to the gates of the palace and collapsed. Then Malerna found me and vowed to take care of me. And from that day on...I became her best friend...sort of like a sister to her." Shinobu stood looking at the pair and started crying slowly to herself as she fell to the floor. Keitaro quickly walked over to her.

"Maybe we should discuss this inside the palace instead of out here where everyone can see us m'lady." Said Usuki as she stood up and began to point to where the palace was.
"That would be a great idea." said Su quickly as she began to walk behind her as the rest followed.
