The New Sailors
Chapter 2: Crossroads
High
The girl jumped away as a beam of light tried to kill
her. She jumped skillfully. Her yellow skirt was torn and her orange
boots were caked with mud. She pushed her bright red hair out of her
face. The girl smiled. But suddenly, another beam of light came
straight towards her and she froze in fear. A girl with long black
hair and a black skirt pushed her out of the way just in time.
Molly screamed. It had just been a dream! She had been having
all the dreams of being a sailor scout lately. She couldn't imagine
why, though. She glanced at her alarm clock. 5:30am. Molly groaned.
High school started so early. Even Serena got up early enough now.
She threw off her comforter. Molly walked into her closet and pulled
on her blue uniform and quickly brushed her hair that she had grown
out to her waist.
The faint smell of pancakes was carried up
to Molly's bedroom. She rushed down the stairs in excitement.
Molly's mom had converted her jewelry store into a jewelry and
perfume store and Molly had been happy about the change. To her
dismay, there was a brand new perfume bottle in her mom's hands.
"Isn't it amazing, Molly? It smells just like
pancakes!" her mother said.
Molly frowned slightly. "I'm
going to school now!" She picked up her book bag and started the
long walk to school.
The school simply
buzzed with tons of talking people. Serena, Raye, Amy, Lita, Mina,
Trista, Michelle, and Amara were all standing in one corner of the
cafeteria talking by far the loudest. Molly smiled and joined
them.
"Hey Molly! What's up?" Mina asked.
"Oh,
nothing much, just that I had the strangest dream last night. I
dreamt I was a Sailor Scout and I had powers just like them! It was
so exciting!"
Suddenly, there was silence, unlike the
teens.
"It was so silly! That would never happen!"
Molly continued.
As if nothing had happened, they started
talking again. Molly didn't notice but Raye, Serena, and Trista
walked quietly away for a minute.
Serena was puzzled, "Why
did you two want to talk?"
"You are such and idiot
Serena! Molly just said she dreamt she was a Sailor Scout! What if it
was no dream?" Raye growled.
Trista threw her long black
hair over one shoulder. "Raye is right. And I have not been able
to see even glimpses of the future since two weeks ago. I think
someone is blocking my visions."
Raye nodded.
Serena
laughed. "M-Molly! A S-Sailor S-Scout! Ha! You guys have to be
kidding! If she was a Sailor Scout then how come we have been
fighting all this time and she still hasn't been revieled?"
"Because, Serena, she might not have had any reason to
remember!"
"But what about Nephlite! I think that
was a reason, Raye!" Serena argued.
Trista shrugged.
"Serena is probably right. Let's go to class."
Amy chewed her pencil. This had been the first time
in a long while that she had not been prepared for a test. She had
studied hard for a long while, but for some reason she was drawing a
blank.
"I'll have to find someone to help me after
school," she thought.
"Serena,
I don't know what is wrong with me! I have never had trouble with a
test before! I had to find a someone to help me!" Amy said into
her cell phone. "I'll talk to you later, bye!"
"Hey!
I'm sorry to barge in, but I couldn't help hearing about how you
wanted help with your schoolwork. My name is Kira and I am visiting
Japan from America," a girl said from behind her.
Amy
turned around. The girl was not much taller than Amy. Maybe and inch
or so. The top half of her short hair was in two buns, like Rini's.
Her hair was lavender and was just long enough to brush her
shoulders. A beautiful sky blue summer dress contrasted her eyes
perfectly. Kira smiled.
"Oh! I'm sorry! You just
startled me. I'm Amy Mizuno and I have lived in Crossroads almost
my whole life!" Amy laughed. "I don't usually need help,
I have just been really busy lately."
"I know how
that goes! High school was a killer, but just wait till college! And
judging by your name tag, you are a Junior this year," Kira
said. Her eyes were friendly but in her head she felt something was
wrong. This girl, Amy had some weird energy coming from her.
Farren walked into her old house. The familiar smells came quickly into recognition. "Grandpa," she called softly.
"In here Raye. Do you have a cold or something, your voice sounds hoarse," her grandpa said.
She grinned to herself, she must sound like Raye a little bit. She walked into the kitchen and stood there waiting for him to turn around.
"Granpa, it's me, Farren. I am visiting Japan to look for someone who is going to join my organization. I thought that I could maybe stay with you," she said.
Her grandpa turned around and grinned. He gave her a big hug. "That's fine. It is so good to see you! I have missed you a lot. How is America? How is everything?" he asked.
He lead her into the living room and they sat. "Raye should be home soon. You must be wanting to meet your sister, won't you? She has no idea you exsist!"
Farren nodded slowly. "Yes, I do. I want to see how she is coming along. But how are you going to explain never telling her about me?"
As if on call, Raye came in. "Hi Grandpa, I..." she trailed off. Sitting next to her grandpa was a girl who looked exactly like her, except older. She gasped. "Who is this?"
Farren stood up. "I am your sister, Farren. I was sent to live in America when you were born because Grandpa could only take care of one child and I was willing to leave to make way for you. So I went into foster care in America. No one ever told you about me because they didn't want to make you feel guilty. But I am here visiting and I thought you should get to know me."
Raye's mouth hung open. "I can't believe no one ever told me. I would have been fine. I will see you two later," she said angrily. She stormed out the door.
"She will come back later and be the nice girl she is, I promise," Grandpa assured her.
"Ok," Farren replied. But inside she was thinking. "The Hino firey temper, that is her all right. But I cannot let her find out the complete truth about me."
A tall, mysterious looking young man with sunglasses walked through crossroads. He had an odd calm feel about him.
"So this is where we can finally capture the Sailor Scouts all together. What an opportunity," he laughed evily.
