Moving out from home
It was in the middle of the morning that Usagi was helping her parents load up the boxes that contains her personal things into Mamoru's car. "Hey, sis?" Usagi turned to see her 16 year old brother Shingo was standing at the door way with his hands behind his back. "What do you want?" Usagi asked in a bit of a rude voice, knowing her brother she wondered if he was going to cook some prank on her. But he pulled out a bouquet of yellow roses from behind his back. "I saved up my allowance to buy you these," Shingo explained in a bashful voice, Usagi was touched by her brother's display of affection for about the fourth time. "Thank you, Shingo," she said as she took the roses and held them to her chest. "You're welcome, I'll miss you, Usagi," said while still standing with his hands in his pocket, Usagi was touched by his sincerity. "I'll miss you, too," she said. "But don't worry, you can always visit," she added as she wrapped her arms around his head and held it to her chest. "Okay," Shingo said as Usagi released him from her grip. "Hey, Shingo wanna help me get the rest of Usagi's items!?" Mamoru shouted from down stairs. "Hai!" Shingo shouted in reply as he dashed down the stairs, Usagi followed.
"Well that's one goodbye she has accomplished," Artemis said while scratching his front legs on the window, Luna only sat quietly, looking out the window. "Luna, what is bothering you?" Artemis asked as he laid in front of her. "Usagi still hasn't mentioned anything about those dreams she has been having," Luna answered calmly without looking at Artemis. "Oh, come on Luna, there can't be anymore trouble..." Luna wasn't paying much attention to what Artemis was babbling about. She was only looking closely at a man standing in an alley, staring from across the street to the house where Mamoru was loading a box into his truck. "Artemis," Luna said loudly to interrupt Artemis. "Look down there," Luna pointed at what she was looking at, Artemis saw the same man. "What about him?" he asked. "That man has been standing there for the past two hours," Luna explained, Artemis saw the man wearing dirty black jeans, brown shirt and a worn out business jacket. "Aw, come on Luna, have a heart for a guy like him," Artemis said with a little pity in his voice. Artemis stretched out his front arms with a yawn. "Why are you so suspicious about everything that has been happening?" he asked.
"About what, father?" Diana asked as she leaped onto the window between her parents "Your mother is concern about that man across the street," Artemis explained and pointed him out for Diana. "Your mom thinks he is a threat to Usagi," Artemis added to his explanation in a joking matter. "Not true," Luna denied jokingly. "I know you think I am too overprotective," Luna admits while still looking at the same homeless man. "I am glad you can admit when you know that your wrong," Artemis said looking at her. "I didn't say that," Luna said with a paw pushing his face away. "No, but you did say that you are overprotective," Artemis said with chuckle but he was startled by Luna's quick reaction with a scream. "AH! Artemis!" she said, then pointed out that Diana was walking toward the homeless man.
The parents screamed for Diana to return but she couldn't hear them and she was approaching the stranger without any fear. 'I can find out for myself if this man is a threat,' Diana thought to herself as she leaped across the street. Diana meowed at him while gently tapping on his leg. "Hmm? Well, hello there little one," he said in a tender and gentle voice, then knelt down to pick her up, she meowed again as he placed the tiny kitten in the palm of his hand. As he stroked her head he noticed her jingling collar beared the name DIANA in big pink letters. "Diana, that is a beautiful name," he complimented. "My, you are so tiny you fit in my hand," he said with his other hand stroking her head to her back. "This guy doesn't seem like a threat," she thought to herself while giving out tiny purrs."Well, Diana, my name is Raion and that's about the only thing about myself I can reveal. Are you hungry?" he asked as he sat on the ground, leaning his back to the building, while holding Diana in his left hand he used his right hand to dig into his jacket. Luna and Artemis were watching from the corner of the building. "Here we are, something from the hospital," he said as he pulled out a big chunk of sandwich wrapped in foiling paper, Raion held it up to Diana. She took a huge chunk of it. "Whoa, whoa, you have quite a large appetite for such a small thing like you," Raion said with a chuckle in his voice. "What do they feed you in there?" he asked while laughing a little. Diana turned her head and meowed loud to her parents whom she knew were watching her, Raion noticed her attention to the corner of the building "You have a family over there?" he asked while looking the same way she was looking.
Luna and Artemis knew they were caught thanks to their daughter "Come, please join us there is plenty for all," Raion said joyfully, Luna and Artemis slowly walked out from there hiding place while giving each other signals that say. "Keep your eyes opened". Raion placed Diana on the ground with her parents, he ripped the sandwich into three pieces and laid them out to each cat. Raion sat down next to the cats and watched them eat. "You both must be very proud of your daughter," he said while smiling at them, Artemis and Luna lifted their heads to meow as their respond. Raion gave them a chuckle. "You both are lucky to have such a lovely daughter," Raion said while at the same time he was gazing at Usagi who was helping Mamoru load up some boxes into the trunk of his truck.
Luna noticed his glance at Usagi. "See? Now he is gazing at Usagi," she whispered while her lips were close to the sandwich, Artemis made a groan for annoyance. "Ugh, Luna you are doing it again," he said then continued to eat up his half of the sandwich. Luna and Artemis continued with their silent disagreement while Raion kept on glancing at Usagi racing out of the house with a box in her arms and handing it to Mamoru. "Last box?" Mamoru asked looking down at her "Yep, I'm all set" Usagi responded with a smile, Raion noticed Usagi's father approaching Mamoru "Well son I leave my daughter in your hands now" he said with his hand extended to Mamoru. "I will take care of her sir" he said then shooked his hand in respect for Usagi's father, Raion stood by and watched as Usagi hoped into the passenger seat and drove off with Mamoru. The three cats watched Raion walk out of the ally and when they rushed out to see where he was going he was gone "Now is that something to be suspious about?" Luna said in a sarcastic voice and looking at him.
