Authors note: What? What's this? I'm writing an author's note? Wow, I normally don't do that! Anyway, this is just to say thanks to all those who read book one and I hope that you all will enjoy book 2.
This segment is called "I want for nothing" and it's about Ami Minzo. I think it's a fitting title and you may agree with me after you finish this first chapter. This is not a coping segment. Ami has a destiny of her own to fulfill. I don't want to give it away, so I won't say anymore. . I love feedback and even flames. They help my writing, really! Ok, end transmission!
Beyond The Dawn
Book 2: I Want For Nothing
Chapter 1
She had left her. That was all there was to it. She had abandoned her family and her friends to be with some man! Why? Wasn't she happy with them? With her? They were always as one. They had vowed that they would never need a man in there lives because they were happy being senshi. They did have to have those relationships in order to be happy. They had each other and they swore that they would always be together. She took that promise seriously. So why didn't Minako see things in that light? Now she lay at the corner of the Tokyo tower incased in orange stone. He soul wasn't in heaven or hell. It was on the astral plane with that man named Kunzite. She hated that. She was alone again.
Sure Usagi was there for her, and Ami and Makoto would keep looking out for her, but it wasn't the same. She had always sought comfort from Minako. All those lonely nights she had dreamed of having a life with Minako. She had even played with the idea of becoming a homosexual, but since Minako was "straight" she remained "straight" as well. It wasn't a major deal to her, as long as they were together.
"Rei-chan?" came a small voice from outside her room. She turned from the homework she hadn't been doing and looked to see Ami peeking in. Rei smiled, but it was empty.
"Hai, Ami-chan. What do you need?
"Ah, nothing really. I just came to check up on you. You've seemed kind of down since Minako… You know…"
"Ah, thank you Ami, but I'm fine really." Rei smiled for good measure. Ami smiled and nodded and slowly closed the door to her room.
Poor Rei. If this kept up then she would surely drive herself into a depression. It has all been hard on them since Minako gave up her soul and abandoned her body to live with Kunzite. It was strange. It seemed as though Minako was dead even if she wasn't.
Ami sympathized with her friend, and yet at the same time she harbored ill feeling towards Minako and Rei. She knew that Minako and Rei held a very special relationship, that they needed nothing. Only themselves, and Ami had envied that kind or relationship. She knew that they were a special pair when they had gone to karaoke last month. Minako and Rei had been singing "My Heart" but Megumi Hayshibara, and they had been perfect. It was as if they had shared the same mind as they sang and danced in the small room. Ami envied them.
She paused in front of her apartment. Her mom wasn't home and would be working late so she would be alone again, alone to drown herself in her books and computer work. It wasn't that she hated her work; it was just that it was the only thing to do after the night hours came. He father was off painting god knows where, and her mom was working her behind off at the hospital. But Ami didn't hate her parents for not being around. Especially since she had her friends, but somehow, that just wasn't enough. She wanted more, but what more was there to her life? She had friends, a mysterious guy who has a crush on her, adventure, a financially well off family, a nice place to live, state of the art computer equipment, good grades, a private pool membership, mental challenges, and the freedom to practically go anywhere she wanted to go without penalty. She didn't have a curfew, her mom never yelled at her, and no one questioned her credibility. It was a perfect life. It was he perfect life…
