Chapter 6: Within Reason
Jedeite pushed Raye aside and walked towards his car.

"Hey! Jedeite! Stop!" Raye yelled.

"I'll see ya later Raye. When your not with Blue Eyes over there." Jed said, giving her a dirty look.

Raye rushed up to Jedeite and grabbed his arm.

"What is wrong with you?! He's a friend! Nothing more than that!" She said, clenching her teeth together and keeping her voice low.

"Well, his necklace sure says a lot, Raye!" He whispered. Then, he yanked the grip away and walked to his car.

When Jedeite shut the car door, he put the gear in drive. He drove out of the driveway and left.

All he could think about was the necklace.

"Bitch! She gave him that necklace! How could she?! I thought I could trust her! We were ment for each other!!!" He yelled, slamming his first on the weal.

When he did, he noticed it was getting hard to steer. He put all his strength into making sure he stayed in control. But then, he left his concentration to look in front of him. There, about a mile in front of him was a bright light. It grew larger the closer he got. He then noticed that he wasn't even touching the weal! He looked down at it to see that it was moving on it's own! When he looked up to a sound, sort of like a high- pitched whistle, He went blind.

Mina and Kunzite walked a long ways home from Raye's temple that night. They held hands and talked.

"You know, I'm worried about Jedeite. He seems to be turning Raye away these days. I hope they're not-" Kunzite began.

"Kunzite, they're fine. Every couple had fights every once in a while! Don't worry about it." Mina said, leaning her head on his shoulder.

~~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~~

"What the.." Jedeite said, waking up in his car. His head was throbbing in pain and his vision was a bit blurry. He put his hand on his head and felt sort of a sticky substance. He pulled his hand down to see it was blood. It was a whole bunch of dripping red blood.

"Uhhhhhhhhhhhh.. What happened?" He looked around him, just to make sure if he was alive or not. He decided it couldn't be heaven. He didn't think God let you keep your car when you died.

He opened the car door and dropped to the ground outside.

~~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~~

Raye paced back and forth across the room, talking and disagreeing with Serena on the phone.

"Listen Raye! I think you owe Jedeite an explanation! The way you went up to Sapphire like that and..HUGGED him kinda pissed him off." Serena Yelled.

"I think I should keep this low until things start to get more SERIOUSE, Serena! I don't want anyone to kill anyone.yet!" Raye yelled back.

"Well, I think that if Jedeite finds out about this, he'll kill more than Sapphire.he might get on a killing spree! Plus, how much do you really know Sapphire?! I mean, he could be a drug dealer for all I know!!!"

"Serena, he used to work at the temple. And I think I might know him more than I thought I did. Maybe I knew him longer than I thought I did."

"What are you saying, Raye?"

Raye sighed deeply and combed her raven hair back with her free hand.

"I'm not sure, Serena. I'm not sure."

"Listen.. Darien and I are going out for coffee, do you wanna come?"

"Sure."

"Great! Be right there! I need to take a shower first. *Giggles*"

*An hour later*

Serena and Darien drove into the driveway of the temple and Serena got out of the door to go get Raye. She knocked on the door and it opened a minute later.

"Alright then! Lets go!" Raye yelled, walking to the car.

"Glad you could come, Raye." Serena said with a smile.

"Are you guys coming, or do I get more donuts and coffee for myself?" Darien asked, rolling down the window.

"Coming!" They both said laughing.

~~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~~

"Oh, shit! My head hurts like hell!" Jedeite said, holding his head hard, putting pressure to try and stop the bleeding.

"What happened to me?! All I remember it that..light.."

"Very good, Blondey!" A man clapped, walking up to him from out of nowhere.
