The Course of Destiny pt.2
Taiki and Yaten walked in the door and were coming home from school. They spotted Seiya drying his hair with the towel. Yaten didn't say a word and just looked at him. Taiki on the other hand..
"What were you thinking?" Taiki asked.
"I was thinking that he had no right to say things about Odango. That's her business and no one else's.
"He had a right to inform everyone else about Usagi's condition."
"The news has explained enough. They even showed the whole damn apartment."
"Not everyone watches the news Seiya. Why are you getting so hooked on her again? We have to return as soon as she is okay."
"Still.."Seiya put his hair in the usual low ponytail. "I'm going to see Odango." Seiya didn't wait for Taiki to say anything, he just walked past him.
"Wait! Aren't you going to see Minako?" Yaten asked. Seiya shook his head and walked out. Yaten sighed and went to his room. "I guess i'll start getting ready."
"I'll be waiting for you." Taiki said as he went to his own.
Seiya stopped and stared at the sunset. He wished that Usagi could see this sunset. He continued to walk when the started to twinkle. He looked at his watch It was almost time for Minako's concert to begin. In the night sky he could see the lights from not to far away. Seiya walked into the hospital building and went straight to the elevator. Seiya closed his eyes and listened to the elevator music until he heard the doors open. He walked down the hallway to Usagi's room and entered. Seiya almost choked on his breath when he seen what he seen.
Minako sat in the dressing room letting the stylist do her hair. It was straightened and curled in swirls at the ends. In ten minutes her show would start and she was determined to not let there be any mistakes or she would be ashamed of herself. This was one of the most important nights in her life. Minako stood up and her long dress flowed to the floor. Golden yellow was the color and her usual red bow was taken out of her head. The back of her dress was transparent all the way to her waist, showing her full back. The front had jewels that shined when light hit them. The dress clung to her body , showing her curves but she still could breathe. The stage manager came in and told her it was time for her to go and she got up and walked out of the dressing room. She took quick breathes as she her way out onto the stage. She was given a microphone backstage and she took one final breath before going on.
"Welcome everyone!" The crowd went wild. Minako was overwhelmed and she thought at first this was a dream but realized that it was her reality. "As you know that I am Aino Minako! It's a pleasure to be on this stage performing for all of you!" Minako looked around and didn't see any empty seats.
Seiya blinked a couple of times. This time it was not like it was in his dreams. Usagi was not on the bridge of death. In fact, she was smiling. Seiya had never seen her smile while she was in this state. He smiled himself because she was smiling. He walked over to the T.V and turned it on. He wanted to see Minako perform but not miss a chance to be with Usagi. He turned to the channel and sat down next to Usagi's bed. He held her hand and stared at her face. She was still smiling. He listened to Minako sing. She sounded great, he had to admit. He would tell her later.
The whole arena was suddenly dark and a spotlight shined on Minako. "As few of you may know..I have found someone to love and I love him dearly. Yaten..This is for you." The crowd was hushed and you could hear the whispers. The music began to play and Minako waited for the point where she would to start singing. She opened her mouth and poured all the emoton she had into her words.
Yaten watched in amazement that Minako had made a song just for him. He sat in the front row along with Taiki, Ami, Rei, Makoto, Haruka and Michiru. Setsuna and Hotaru were also there watching.
"I used to think that I wasn't fine enough
and I used to think that wild enough
And I won't waste my time tryin to figure out
Why you playin games
What's this all about?
And I can't believe you're hurting me
I met your girl what a difference
What you see in her
You don't see in me
But I guess it all was just make believe.."
Rei was amazed at how much emotion Minako had put into her voice. She could feel the different emotions coming from her and going to her fans. Makoto was feeling the same thing and the same for Ami. Haruka and Michiru watched her in awe, her stage presence was so great. Setsuna smiled because she knew that Minako would make it big. Hotaru was also smiling because Minako finally got with Yaten.
"Love...
Never knew what I was missin
But I knew once we start kissin
I found...
Love...
Never knew what I was missin
But I knew once we start kissin
I found...
found you..
Now you're gone
What am I gonna do
So empty my heart, my soul can't go on
Go on with out you
All my rainy days fade away
When you come around
Please tell me baby..
Why you go so far away...
Why you go...
Love..
Never knew what I was missin
But I knew once we start kissin
I found...
Love...
Never knew what I was missing...
But I knew once we start kissin...
I found...
Found..you..."
The music faded away and there was loud cheering. Minako smiled and sighed a breath of releif. A variety of colors were swirling around while she was singing but they had stopped. One green light now shined on Yaten and one yellow light shone on Minako. "Yaten I love you." The crowd was silent and theres a bunch of "awwww's" Yaten was handed a mic and he smiled.
"I love you too, Minako!" Yaten stood up and said it. Everyone started cheering and clapping. Minako was blushing and put her head down so that her hair could hide her face for a second. She faced the crowd again and spoke into the mic.
"Here is my final song for tonight..As some of you may know, my friend Usagi Tsukino is in the hospital. A coma. I hoped that Usagi would be here tonight, but sadly she isn't. So this song is for her!" The crowd stopped cheering as the lights went off again.
"Odango can you hear her?" Seiya asked. The volume on the T.V was very loud and he was sure that maybe in the halls and in the other rooms they could hear it. "She has a song just for you. This is a suprise to me and probably to the others since she didn't tell anyone about it as far as I know.."
The sun was shining brightly on Usagi as she stood outside. The wind was blowing and sending her hair flying around her. It was no longer in it's usual odango's. Usagi liked it this way. She heard Seiya and heard Minako's song for Yaten. She also heard their confessing their love for each other. She wished she could be there watching her in person.
The music was playing loud and clear and she heard Minako's voice, singing for her.
"When i'm lost...
In the rain..
In your eyes I know I'll find the light to light my way
When i'm scared
Losing ground
When my world is going crazy
You can turn it all around
And when i'm down you're there pushing me to the top
You're always there giving me all you got"
Tears were coming from Usagi's eyes.
Seiya watched Usagi's face for any emotion. He was suprised when he seen the tears coming down her face. He wiped them away but more came. She was smiling too. He was listening to Minako's song and understood how deep the relationship is between the girls.
"For a shield, from the storm
For a friend, for a love to keep me safe and warm
I turn to you
For the strength, to be strong
For the will to carry on...
For everything you do
For everything thats true
I turn to you.."
With the light shining down on Minako it was easy to see that she was crying while she was singing even though you could not hear it.
"When I lose..
The will to win..."
Minako stretched out her arm.
"I just reach for you and I can reach the sky again..
I can do..
Anything...
Cause
your love is so amazing
Cause your love inspires me.."
"Mina.." Usagi whispered. Seiya's eyes widened when he heard her.
"Odango!" Tears were starting to well up in Seiya's eyes.
"And when I need a friend you're always by my side.
Giving me faith to get me through the night.."
"Seiya..." Usagi looked towards her star that was still shining and now shining brighter.
"Odango...I'm right here." Seiya touched her cheek softly. Her skin was warm and and the color had returned.
"I want to see Minako..I want to see you.." Usagi whispered.
"Open your eyes..."
"For a shield (for a shield)..
From the storm (from the storm)
For a friend
For a love to keep me safe and warm (for a love to keep me safe and warm)
I turn to you (I turn to you)
For the strength (for the strength)
To be strong
For the will to carry on..
For everything you do..
I turn to you..."
Wings became visable on Usagi's back. She spread her arms and they did the same. Usagi was lifted off the ground and towards the sky. The sun reflected on her golden hair. Usagi stopped in mid air and looked back once more at the beautiful, serene place she was leaving behind.
"I'd choose where i'm going any day rather then to spend my life alone.." Usagi blew a kiss and flew away.
"For the ops to be myself to through all the rain
For truth that will never change
For someone to lean on
For a heart I can rely on through anything
For the one who...
I can..."
"Run to..."
Usagi's eye's fluttered open. It took a while for her vision to focus and for the images to stop swirling in her head. When it finally did she saw Seiya's eyes. "Seiya.."
"I'm here Odango.."
"Don't leave me now.." She held on to his hand tightly as she whispered.
"Don't worry, Odango..I won't.."
For a minute at the concert it seemed like all time had stopped and no one else was in the room except the inner, outer and starlight senshi. Everyone felt it.. They felt her shine again. Outside, the moon shined brightly on the Earth and the stars equaled that shine. A minute later, the concert ended and everone was leaving. The senshi and the Starlights waited for Minako to come off the stage. As soon as she did Yaten went over to meet her. He met her in a long hug.
"Congradulations. Your first concert was a big success. How do you feel?" Minako was smiling from ear to ear.
"I'm lovin it!" Minako said. They held hands as they walked together to join the group. Taiki was holding Ami's hand and she was suprisingly calm.
"Did anyone else feel what I felt on stage?" Minako asked quietly so that no one would over hear their conversation. Everyone in the group nodded.
"She's back.." Michiru said smiling. "We should go visit her." Everyone went and got into seperate vehicles and went in the direction of the hospital.
Usagi wanted to sit up but Seiya kept pushing her back down. "No Odango..You don't have enough energy to get up yet." Usagi folded her arms across her chest and pouted.
"But Seiya..They are coming to visit me..I wanna show them that I am well again." Seiya turned his head away from her and covered his ears to keep from giving in. He peeked at her and she was still pouting.
"I'm not giving in, Odango."
"Usagi!" The door swung open and Minako was the first to run in. She leaned over and gave her a hug. When she pulled back she was crying again. "I missed you over the past few days.."
"Excuse me everyone..." Ms. Mizuno came walking in the room past the group and stood beside Usagi. "Usagi has to stay here for a couple more days to be examined. I just needed to make sure you all knew that before you got her out of bed." She turned to Usagi. "Now.. I suppose that you are hungry after not eating for almost a week. I will go get you something to eat."
"Thank you! I really am hungry now that I think of it." Everyone laughed.
"She's back to normal!" Everyone took turns hugging her. It was a big weight being lifted off of everyone's shoulders.
"Seiya can we talk to you outside?" Taiki and Yaten were waiting outside and Seiya followed. He closed the door to the room and faced the two.
"You know we must leave?" Taiki asked. He wasn't as happy to leave but he didn't let on.
"Why must we leave? We are all happy here!" Seiya didn't care who seen or heard. Luckily, there was no one in the halls.
"We promised we would return.."Yaten said in a low voice.
"Tell princess..I am sorry..I will not return with you." Seiya was about to walk back in when he smelled seen a red butterfly flutter around. He turned around and there was Kakyuu. He immediatly knelt down, same as the other two.
"Starlights..It is clear to me that all of you are happy here. I am relieving you of your duties to me. There are many other senshi that can guard me so you shall not worry about my safety."
"Princess!" Yaten said astonished.
"Thank you." Seiya said. He got up and went to the door. It was alright open and everyone was watching.
"Be happy, my Starlights." With that Kakyuu disappeared leaving only a butterfly that fluttered around for less than a minute then disappeared.
It was midnight. Seiya was with Usagi in her room. Seiya was comfortable on the couch that was brought in from the hallway.
"They are letting my parents know tomorrow.. My mother is going to cry her eyes out."
"I almost did the same thing." Seiya had the couch next to Usagi's bed so he could be close to her. He grabbed her hand and kissed it softly. This sent electricity all through her body in one wave. Without thinking Seiya got up and kissed her gently on the lips. Usagi went warm all over. His lips were soft and his kisses were gentle. Usagi never experianced such warmth when she kissed anyone else. This was a new feeling to her.
Seiya slowly pulled away and made himself comfortable on the couch again. "Odango..I..I..I love you." Seiya closed his eyes and expected the worst of things to come out of her mouth, the worst being that she doesn't feel the same way.
"I love you, too. Over the weeks I have been missing you." Usagi closed her eyes.
"Odango.."
"I want to go to Kinmoku..Promise yme that you will take me there."
"I promise. As soon as you get out of here. I will fly you away.."
