Two weeks past and Ahriman returned to the loft and found no one was home. She looked over at a chestnut haired girl and reverted into her human form and smiled. "Looks like they are in school. Let's go and surprise Makoto shall we."
The girl smiled and spoke with a heavy cockney accent. "Yea let's go surprise 'er." They both got onto one of the motorcycles and rode to the college. When they got there they walked onto the campus and saw students milling around. "Oi looks like it could be lunch time."
Ahriman smiled. "Well follow me I see them." The younger girl nodded and followed Ahriman to a large cherry tree. "Wait here I'll bring her to you." Once again the chestnut haired girl nodded. Ahriman walked over to the group of girls and smiled. "Such lazy Senshi you all are."
Makoto looked at Ahriman and stood up. "Where is she Ahriman?"
"Over there." Ahriman nodded in the direction of where she left the girl standing.
Makoto looked over there and saw no one. "Over where cat?"
Ahriman shook her head. "Just walk over there she'll grab you." Ahriman looked over there and saw her leaning against a tree. "You might not recognize her but she'll defiantly recognize you."
Makoto nodded and started to walk in the direction Ahriman nodded in. The others started to stand but Ahriman stopped them and shook her head no. Makoto neared the tree and looked around. "Where over here is she."
"Right 'ere angel." The chestnut haired girl walked out from behind the tree she was behind.
Makoto looked at the girl and smiled. She ran her finger down the familiar scar that ran vertically over her left eye. "Is it really you ai?"
"Aye angel it's really me."
Makoto let the tears run freely down her cheeks. "How I've missed you my love." Makoto threw herself into Mel's arms and cried.
Rei looked at Ahriman. "So what all does she remember?"
Ahriman shrugged her shoulders. "Everything except the day of the battle, but after Reyu and Super Nova are reawakened that will come back to her."
Usagi looked over and saw Makoto holding Mel. "I'm just glad she's back if we had to put up with another day of Mako-chan being so depressed I was gonna have to hurt her, Well attempt to any ways."
Ahriman laughed. "I'm sorry princess but she would take you in just a few hits. Remember she's a lot stronger since Enyo healed her." Ahriman looked over where Mel and Makoto were standing. "Hey where did they go?"
Rei blushed softly. "They probably went home and are well in bed right now."
Ahriman looked at Rei and blushed herself. "You think so?"
Mel carried Makoto from the door of the loft to the bedroom door and walked in and laid the younger girl down on the bed. Mel kissed her lover deeply slowly she moved the kisses to Makoto's neck as she unbuttoned her school uniform shirt. Mel softly kissed the soft skin as it was uncovered. Makoto ran her hand through Mel's thick chestnut hair. Mel looked up at Makoto and smiled before undoing her skirt and pulling it off. She kissed back up Makoto's toned tanned body and sat her up and removed her shirt and unclasped her bra. Mel slowly removed the black silk bra and kissed the newly exposed flesh before taking it into her mouth. Makoto moaned slightly as Mel laid her back down and kissed her deeply running her hand down her lover's side. Mel softly pet the younger girl through her black silk panties before kissing down her body and removing them slowly. Mel spread the younger girl's legs slowly and kissed the insides of her thighs before pleasuring her with her tongue. Makoto drug her nails up Mel's back and moaned loudly. Mel looked up at her lover and took her white muscle shirt off and then she slowly slipped two fingers inside her lover and felt the smooth muscles relax and tighten around her fingers. As she slowly pleasured her lover with her fingers she kissed her deeply and then kissed and nibbled down her lover's body and replaced her fingers with her tongue once again. Mel mixed technique with magick and every now and then teased with her tongue ring. Makoto dug her nails into Mel's back dragging them up towards her shoulders. Mel winced as she felt the warm liquid run down her back. Mel replaced her tongue with her fingers once again and kissed Makoto deeply. The younger girl moaned softly as she tasted herself in her warrior's kiss. As Mel brought Makoto closer and closer to a climax Makoto's fevered cried were silenced by deep passion filled kisses from Mel. Makoto snapped her head back and arched her back and called her warriors name before biting down hard on her shoulder. After the younger girl quit shaking Mel slowly removed her fingers and winked at Makoto as she licked them clean.
Makoto pulled Mel up to her and wrapped her arms around her tightly and spoke breathlessly. "Ti…amo…ai."
Mel rolled off the trembling girl and pulled her close to her and held her tightly. "Vera me amore, la mia anima gemella, Ti amo." Makoto snuggled close to Mel and rested her head on her chest and slowly fell asleep. Mel kissed the top of her head and slowly pulled the covers up over them before falling asleep.
Ahriman and the other's walked into the loft and Rei found the two asleep in each others arms. Rei smiled softly and told the others. "Well girls I was right. Makoto is asleep in Mel's arms. And yes Ahriman she's as naked as the day she was born. I mean Mel covered her lower half up, and the way Mako-chan fell asleep Mel's body hides her chest."
Ahriman blushed and reverted into her panther form. "I'll go get Mel hold on. I'm warning you though she looks different. Her hair is its natural color and she has her accent. She knows what I told her about that day but that's it so don't expect her to know what your talking about." Ahriman walked into Mel's bedroom and nudged Mel's arm with her nose. "Get up there's some people here to see you."
Mel yawned and carefully got out of bed covering Makoto up the rest of the way. She stretched and walked out into the front room and smiled softly when she saw the others standing there. Ami walked over by Mel and touched her chest where the boot knife had hit her. A scar now served as a reminder of what happened that day. Mel smirked slightly before talking. "I assure ya Ami-chan I'm really standing 'ere."
Ami smiled. "It's good to see you Mel-chan."
Usagi slowly walked over to Mel and looked at her funny. "I don't see how you look so different."
Mel raised her left eyebrow and looked and Usagi. "Wha tha 'ell does tha' mean Usagi-chan"
Usagi smiled warmly at her friend. "Ahriman said you would look different and we might not recognize you. But she was wrong you still look like you just with different color hair."
Mel smiled softly and shook her head. "Oi ok Usagi-chan."
Makoto yawned and opened her eyes and saw Mel was no longer in bed. Makoto frowned as she slowly got dressed talking to herself quietly. "Guess I was only dreaming." Makoto stretched as she walked down the hallway. Her eyes fell on Mel and she smiled. Makoto wrapped her arms around Mel's waist and kissed her neck softly. "That was rude you know ai."
Minako chuckled. "What was rude Mako-chan?"
Makoto looked over Mel's shoulder and blushed slightly when she saw the other Senshi standing there. "Leaving me in bed asleep instead of telling me you guys were here."
Ahriman came running into the loft and spoke quickly. "I hate to ruin the mood but there's a yoma attack at the park."
Minako looked at everyone and nodded. "You heard her girl let's get to the park."
Makoto kissed Mel's cheek quickly. "I'll be back ai."
Mel watched as the other's left. "Oi I can still transform into Reyu righ?"
Ahriman shook her head. "No she'll have to be reawakened. It won't take long." At that Ahriman lunged at Mel knocking her down. Mel looked at her with wide eyes as she turned Mel's head to the left. Mel yelled out in pain as the demon panther bit into her neck. Ahriman then reverted to her human form and pulled out 3 vials of red liquid, and poured them into the bite mark on Mel's neck. The mark healed right away leaving only two scars. Mel sat up and snapped her head back and growled as black dragon like wings sprung from her back. When she looked at Ahriman her hair was snow white and her eyes were blood red. She blinked and her hair returned to its rainbow color and her eyes returned to their usual deep emerald green.
Mel looked at Ahriman and took the henshin stick from her. "Let's go help them out shall we." Mel jumped up and quickly transformed as her and Ahriman ran to the park. When Super Nova and Ahriman got there only two of the Senshi were still standing. Super Nova smirked and called her attack. "SUPER NOVA RAINBOW STAR EXPLODE!" A rainbow beam of light hit the yoma destroying it. Super Nova then ran to the only two standing Senshi. "Sorry I'm late ya guys."
Sailor Moon smiled. "Better late than never Super Nova."
Venus smiled meekly as she looked into the cold eyes of Super Nova. Super Nova walked past Venus and helped Jupiter to her feet. "Ya ok princess."
Jupiter looked at Super Nova and smiled. "I am now." Jupiter hugged Super Nova tightly.
The group of girls all walked back to Mel's loft and Makoto and Mel cooked dinner for everyone. As they ate they talked about random things. At about midnight everyone left. Mel and Makoto were soaking in a hot candle lit bubble bath when Makoto sighed heavily. Mel tightened her grip on Makoto's waist and kissed her shoulder softly. "What's the matter angel?"
Makoto sank into her lover's sweet embrace and spoke softly. "I want to be like you Mel."
"No you don't princess. You don't want to be a demon. A motocross racer ok fine be a racer, you're already a Sailor Senshi. I refuse to make you a demon. I can awaken the goddess that sleeps with in you, but I won't turn you into a demon. It's bad enough I've already tarnished your pure soul."
Makoto spoke softly. "Goddess? Wha are you talking about?"
"You all draw your Senshi powers from the goddess of your soul." Mel smiled softly. "All you have to do is ask and Amaya will be awakened."
Makoto spoke softly. "Will it hurt to awaken her?"
Mel chuckled. "Yea, but it's not as painful as having Reyu awakened. If it's done properly it won't hurt that bad."
"What will you have to do to awaken her?"
"I'm not gonna awaken her in the tub. Wait till we go to bed."
Makoto nodded and sank into her lover's strong arms. "Ti amo."
"Ti amo angel."
The two girls walked into their bedroom. Makoto sat down on the edge of the bed and sighed. Mel looked over at Makoto and sighed before crawling across the bed and grabbing Makoto. Mel kissed her neck softly then whispered in her ear. "Fergive me angel." Before Makoto could respond Mel bit her neck. Makoto's eyes got wide before she slowly relaxed and closed her eyes. Mel laid Makoto down and turned her head so that the bite mark was exposed. Mel used magick and made a vile of silver liquid appear. Mel poured it into the open wound on Makoto's neck. The wound healed leaving two scars in their place. Makoto moaned slightly and furrowed her brow in pain. She sat up and opened her eyes. Her once emerald eyes now had silver streaks in them and her thick brunette hair now had silver streaks in it. Makoto yelled out in pain as hunter green feathered wings sprung from her back. Amaya looked at Mel and smiled softly before withdrawing her wings and closing her eyes. Makoto fell to the bed and moaned again softly before opening her eyes. Everything seemed more vivid to Makoto colors were brighter and sounds were clearer. Makoto looked at Mel with fear in her eyes. Mel pulled her close and held her tightly. "Its ok angel just breathe. You'll get used to it after a few minutes."
Makoto took a deep breath and held Mel tightly. The fear soon retreated and Makoto looked up at Mel. "I, I think I'm ok now ai."
Mel loosened her hold on Makoto and looked at her and smiled softly. "You sure you're ok? You still look pale."
Makoto nodded and spoke softly. "Hai I'm sure, but please just hold me a little longer." Makoto weakly wrapped her arms around Mel's waist and nuzzled her neck with her nose leaving her face there afterwards.
A few minutes later there was a knock on the door. Mel sighed as Makoto pulled away from her and stood up. Her legs still weak she rocked slightly and Mel put her arm around her to steady her. "Take it slow angel ok you'll need a good hour to totally recover." Mel and Makoto walked from the room. Mel helped Makoto to the sofa where she sat down slowly. Mel then went and opened her front door. Mel looked at the blonde coldly. "What the hell do you want Minako?"
Minako hung her head. "I totally deserved that. I was wondering if I could talk to you and Mako-chan."
Mel's voice was icy as she spoke. "Maks is in the front room." Mel kept the cold look on her face as the blonde walked in and towards the front room. Mel closed her door slowly and then followed Minako into the front room.
Makoto looked up when she heard Minako walk into the room. A faint smile crossed Makoto's lips as she spoke softly. "Hey Mina-chan what brings you here?"
Minako looked at Makoto funny. "Are you ok Mako-chan?"
"Yea Mina-chan I was sleeping and I'm not fully awake yet that's all."
"I reiterate Minako what the hell do you want?"
Minako looked at Mel and saw how cold her features were. Minako took a few steps away from Mel and spoke softly. "I came here to apologize to you and Mako-chan I was way out of line with the things I said and I'm sorry. I guess I'll see you guys at school tomorrow." Minako walked to the door slowly.
Makoto looked over at Mel and saw the cold look on her face and shook her head. "Mina-chan wait." Makoto stood up and shook her head to try and shake the dizzy feeling. Minako stopped at the door and waited for her friend. "Mel's not really mad at you Mina-chan but she's hurt deeply that you took Jay's word over her's and confronted her about it." Makoto smiled softly. "Ya know Mina-chan, I'm not blind I've seen how you look at me, and I see the envy in your eyes whenever I'm with Mel."
Minako's eyes got wide as she felt her cheeks get warm from the blush. "Y-you've seen all that?"
Makoto smiled. "Hai Mina-chan I have. The look in your eyes that night at the dance when you and me were dancing was a pure smitten look. You could see the love and longing in your eyes."
Minako hung her head. "I'm sorry Mako-chan but unlike you I remember I was the one who held your heart in the moon kingdom. I doubt if you remember or not but Mel came to see you a few times on the moon. I was jealous of her then because whenever she would visit you, you requested to be left alone. So the last time she came to see you I saw her before you did and kissed you in front of her. After that she quit coming to see you. I was jealous of her then and I'm jealous of her now. When she called me on it I didn't know how to react, I couldn't let the others know that she was right so I said something's I shouldn't have." Minako hung her head and sighed.
Makoto raised the younger girls head and smiled softly. "I remember Minako, but I also remember you and the princess caring on behind mine and Mamo-chan's back. Look Mina-chan whatever we had on the moon is in the past. You're with what seems like great guy don't throw what you have with him away on perusing me. I love you as a friend Minako, but I love Mel heart and soul. I'm engaged to her for gods sake. You're my best friend Minako and just because we're not together romantically doesn't mean we're not close right? No matter what Minako you'll always be my best friend and have a place in my heart." Makoto kissed Minako's cheek softly.
A tear rolled down Minako's cheek as she wrapped her friend in a tight embrace. "I'm so sorry Mako-chan. I love you, but your right I shouldn't act on those feelings you're engaged to Mel. I never meant to hurt you, not then and not now." Minako buried her face in Makoto's shoulder and cried softly.
Mel leaned on the door jam and looked at Minako coldly. "Was that your true reason for coming over here Minako? To try and get her back?"
Minako jumped back away from Makoto and looked into the cold eyes of Mel. "No Mel it wasn't, honest. I truly did come here to say I was sorry for the way I acted. You were right Mel I was jealous she chose you her over me. I've never lost to someone before in relationship sense. I always get who I want. But not this time, this time I lost to a street rat."
Mel lunged forward with her fists clenched. Makoto grabbed a hold of Mel and held her back stumbling a little. "Knock it off both of you. Mina-chan that was not cool what you just said. You started off sincere then turned it around and made it sound personal. Look Minako you had your chance to be with me and you chose to fool around with Usagi behind my back. It's your fault you lost me not Mel's so stop trying to fight with her. And Mel calm down ok you and me can talk about this later just please I'm still kinda out of it and don't need to be holding you back now please just relax."
Mel relaxed and looked at Makoto. "Gomen nasai angel. And hai we WILL talk about this later. As for you Minako, Makoto ain't always gonna be able to hold me back so you jus better back the fuck off."
Minako glared at Mel. "I'm not afraid of a wanna be demon who's too stoned half the time to know what day it is. Mako-chan was mine once and will be mine again."
Mel growled. "You know damn well that's not true. Keep fuckin with me Minako and I'll show you just how much of a demon I can be. Why don't you jus give it up Minako she already said what you guys had is old news. Face it Minako you can't beat me. I was her first everything. So tell me how you plan on competing with that."
Minako's jaw dropped. "Her first everything? Shame she doesn't remember it. All she remembers is what me and her shared on the moon."
"Yea Minako she was my first everything. And no Minako I remember what me and Mel had on Jupiter. And you know what she never fucked around on me."
Minako hung her head. "Mel's right I can't compete with that but don't think I'm giving up." Minako turned and walked out of Mel's apartment.
Mel turned around and walked into the front room and saw Avery and Ivory playing on the PS2. Mel sighed and sat down and watched the two play.
Ivory, not taking her eyes off the screen, spoke to Mel coolly. "Minako problems huh."
"Hai kiddo, Minako problems."
Makoto sat down next to Mel and sighed. "I'm sorry for the way she acted ai. We do have a lot to talk about though."
Mel nodded her voice a tad on the mad side. "Hai Makoto we do have A LOT to talk about."
"Don't be mad at me ai. If you wanna be mad at Minako fine, but don't take it out on me." Makoto stood up and went to walk away when Mel grabbed her arm.
Her voice soft. "Angel don't walk away I'm sorry your right I have no right to take it out on you." Mel stood up and pulled Makoto into a tight hug.
Mel and Makoto walked to the bedroom and Mel closed the door behind her. The soft look on her face turning cold. "I can't believe the nerve of Minako." Mel looked at Makoto and her look softened. "Would you mind explaining this to me because I'm pretty lost?"
Makoto looked at Mel and raised her eyebrow. "What are you lost for?"
"Well I'm not really lost jus kind confused." Mel features slowly turned cold as she spoke. "I wanna know why you kept the fact from me that Minako remembered about you guys in the moon kingdom. I mean how long have you known she was still in love with you? I mean I'm not blind Makoto I see how she looks at you. Granted you don't return the looks but still. How far are you really willing to let her go?"
"I didn't really notice her gaze until the dance. I mean I thought it was strange that every time I went to dance with you she pulled me back. Look Mel I know what you're getting at and I want you to stop. I don't love Minako, she's old news. I love you and wanna spend the rest of my life with you ok. Don't let Minako's actions and feelings come between us cuz that's what she wants."
Mel's look softened slightly. "I have no intentions of letting her get between us." Mel looked at Makoto and smiled softly. "It's nice to know you feel that way."
Makoto smiled softly at her warrior. "Always and forever Mel, my heart and soul are yours. Minako held my heart once a very long time ago. But what me and her had was NOTHING compared to what we had and still have." Makoto threw herself into Mel's arms and held her tightly.
Mel's alarm went off at 6am the next morning. Makoto stretched and leaned over Mel and turned it off. Mel slowly got out of bed and as she stretched she flexed all her muscles and then relaxed them. "School sucks." Mel mumbled in a groggy tone before rubbing the sleep out of her eyes. The two girls took a shower and then got dressed. Mel left her shirt unbuttoned and draped her tie around her neck. Mel sighed and grabbed her blazer off the chair that sat in the corner of the room and yawned one last time before following Makoto out of the room.
Avery chuckled when she saw Mel walk into the kitchen. "Morning sunshine." Mel simply flicked the young girl off and poured a cup of coffee. Avery smiled. "No thanks Mel-chan, that's Mako-chan's job. Ohaiyo Mako-chan." The young girl smiled and went back to eating her toast and drinking her coffee.
Makoto smiled. "Morning you two. Ivory why are you so quiet?"
Ivory chuckled. "Cuz…well look at Mel's face and then I'll tell you." Mel had her left eyebrow raised and a funny look on her face. Makoto chuckled and looked back at Ivory. Ivory smiled softly. "Kinda made the coffee a bit strong."
Mel coughed. "Kinda? Damn girl this is Starbucks Espresso strong." Mel looked at the young girl and smiled at her. "It's ok though I need it. I was up almost all night studying for the damn Psychology test today."
Avery spoke never looking up from the book she was now reading. "I'm sure you two studied A LOT more then just Psychology."
Makoto spit the coffee out she was drinking and looked at Avery. "Are you sure she's not yours Mel? I mean I would never say summin like that." Makoto looked at the young girl and smiled then mussed her hair. "Go brush your hair it looks like Mel's."
Avery chuckled. "Yea ok but you guys better be ready when I get back it's 7:05. And nope I'm yours Mako-chan; you seem to forget I was raised by you two. Not my fault I hang around with Ivory. It's her fault." Avery flashed Makoto a playful grin and went to the bathroom to rebrush her hair.
Mel dropped Avery and Ivory off at school and then drove to the college. Mel parked next to Rei's red Honda Civic and smiled over at Makoto. "Ready for a REALLY long day?"
Makoto smiled. "Hai, and as long as you're with me I'm ready for anything." Makoto leaned over and kissed Mel playfully on her neck before straddling her lap and capturing the older girl's lips then mouth in a deep playful kiss.
Minako pulled into the parking lot and parked next to Mel's jeep wrangler. She sighed heavily when she saw Makoto in Mel's lap kissing her. you should be with me Mako-chan not a street rat like that. Minako got out of her car and glared at her friend. "Seriously Mel-chan, how can you think Mako-chan is as horny as you all the time?"
Makoto looked at Minako and smiled. "I got in her lap and started to kiss her Mina-chan she didn't pull me into her lap."
Minako huffed. "Sure make excuses for her Mako-chan." Minako looked at Makoto with an expression dripping with love, longing and pure raw passion.
Makoto sighed and got out of the jeep. "Mina-chan don't look at me like that. What we HAD is in the past, so please let it stay there. Mel's the keeper of my heart and soul now. Besides Minako you're my best friend I don't look at you as more than that. Well actually I do. I look at you as a sister, you and the other girls were all the family I ever had for a long time, and for that you all hold a special place in my heart. I could never date one of you guys it would just feel wrong. I'd feel like I was dating a sister. You have a boyfriend Minako, one who seems to love you very much, start a life with him and keep our memory in your heart." Makoto brushed the tear off Minako's cheek and smiled softly.
Minako nodded at Makoto and swallowed down the lump forming in her throat. Minako looked at Mel, returning the icy stare she was receiving from the older girl. "Don't look so smug Mel you've only won a battle but have yet to win the war."
Mel huffed. "When and where Minako? I'll even let you fight me as Sailor Venus to make it even. You wanna fight fine we'll fight. And before you even say anything fighting you was and is the last thing I wanna do, but you wanna keep acting like a spoiled lil bitch I'll be more then happy to knock you down a few pegs. Life is tuff Minako, a lot tougher for us because we're Senshi and don't have the luxury or living a normal life. But damn quit living in the shadows of the past and start living in the light of the future. You keep perusing this and you might drive Makoto away. I know that's the last thing you want so be happy you have her friendship, because if you keep this up you won't even have that."
Minako crossed her arms across her chest. "And what does a demon like you know of love? I don't live in the shadows of the past you do. Do you have any, ANY idea how hard it's been only being Mako-chan's best friend for all these years? I almost told her how I felt a lot of times. Sure I told her I loved her, but I'm sure she thought I meant it in a harmless friendship sort of way. I was gonna tell her how I felt at lunch the day you showed up. When I looked over there where you were standing and saw you I knew I would lose Mako-chan again if I didn't tell her. I looked over at her and was just about to tell her but she made a fist and went running to your side. When I saw that all the jealousy and envy came back. I hated you for showing back up, because when she lied about spending the day with you I knew right then and there I lost her again."
Mel's look softened a bit. "A demon like me knows more of hate then of love. No Minako I don't live in the shadows of my past. If I did I would be an entirely different person than I am now. Hai Minako I do know what's its like to watch the person you love from afar. When I first came to Tokyo I dropped the spell on my hair and left it chestnut, I would stand in shadows and watch Makoto with you guys at lunch and then hang out at the arcade. So many times I wanted to jus take her in my arms and hold her and tell her I love her. Finally I just I dunno I enrolled in the college and well you know the story from there Minako. Well I'm done beating this dead horse fer now. We're gonna be late for class, we'll finish this talk at lunch ok."
Minako nodded and the three of them walked to class. Minako went to her math class while Mel and Makoto went to Psychology. They sat down just as the late bell rang. The teacher looked at the two girls and shook her head. "Cutting it close aren't we you two." The teacher chuckled. "Miss Chase…"
"Hai"
"Go button the top three buttons on your shirt and tie your tie please."
Mel chuckled slightly and did as she was told. "See now if I would have done that before I came to class I would have been late."
The teacher shook her head. "Whatever you say Miss Chase. Everyone get your homework out and prepare for the test." The teacher smiled softly at Mel. "Oh yes and Miss Chase Katie loves that helmet you autographed for her. Her brother Davy is very jealous."
Mel looked at the teacher confused. "Nani?" Mel sat there for a second with her head cocked to one side and her left eyebrow raised. Finally the light bulb lit up over Mel's head and she chuckled. "You mean in Milan, my motocross helmet. Katie is your daughter?"
The teacher smiled. "Hai she is, and hai I was referring to your motocross helmet."
Mel rubbed the back of her neck and looked at the teacher. "Um tell ya what." Mel pulled out a piece of paper and scribbled down her address and phone number on it and handed it to her teacher. "Bring him by after school and have him bring summin he wants autographed and I'll sign it for him. Well not right after school I promised my lil sis and Makoto's lil sis I'd take um to the arcade after school. Shit here." Mel took the piece of paper back and scribbled her cell phone number on it. "Call my cell phone if you get no answer at my place. Though my roommate Kat might answer I dunno she's never there anyways always off with her boyfriend. Or you can jus meet me up at Crown Game Center. If he's lucky Ten'ou Haruka might even be there. If she's not I'll call her and have her stop up there." Mel handed the paper back to the teacher and smiled. "Let's get this test over with."
Lunch time rolled around and Mel and Makoto walked out on to the open campus and Makoto smiled and put her hand in Mel's back pocket. Ami walked up behind Makoto and smiled softly before tapping the taller girl on the shoulder. Makoto turned around and smiled when her emerald eyes met Ami's blue ones. "Hay Ami-chan. Where's Rei-chan?"
"On the other side of Mel-chan." Rei chuckled.
Makoto shook her head. "So what have you two been up too?" Makoto paused. "Never mind I don't wanna know. I'm sure you've been making good of the time Rei's grandpa and Yuichiro are away."
Mel chuckled. "I thought you said this morning you wouldn't say stuff like that. Just goes to show she's yours."
Minako walked out and saw Makoto standing there with Mel talking to Rei and Ami and an evil smirk formed on her lips. you'll see here shortly that you still want to be with me. A vision of Makoto breaking up with Mel after she started a fight with her flashed in Minako's head. Minako took a deep breath and marched over to the group of girls and smiled at Rei and Ami before punching Mel in the face and quickly kissed Makoto deeply.
Mel shook off the punch and grabbed Minako by the bow in her hair and pulled Minako away from Makoto. Mel's features were cold as she pulled her arm back and was just about to hit Minako but felt someone grab her arm. She tightened her grip on Minako's hair and turned and looked into the pleading blue eyes of Ami. Mel turned her cold stare back to Minako and tossed her to the ground and took her arm back from Ami and shot Makoto an icy glare before walking away from the group of girls.
Makoto stood there red faced and eyes wide. She stuttered as she tried to speak. "M-m-Minako-chan w-w-why the hell did, did you just do that?" Her voice slowly getting angry as she looked at the younger blonde on the ground. "Did NOTHING I tell you stick? I can't believe you would do that Minako. You so deserved what Ami-chan stopped Mel from doing. Though you're probably lucky Ami-chan stopped her cuz the way Mel fights, she don't stop till some ones unconscious." Makoto sighed heavily. "Listen and listen good Minako, I'm not in love with you any more that was on the moon not here on earth. What you and I had then is NOTHING compared to what Mel and I had on Jupiter and still have here on Earth. If you can't be happy being my friend then stay away from me Minako." Makoto turned and walked away from the three girls. Makoto caught up to Mel easily. "Ai please stop." Mel stopped and glared at Makoto. "Look I know you're mad but can I please tell you what I did before you get pissed at me?" Mel nodded. "I told Minako that if she can't be happy being my friend to stay away from me. I also told her what I told you last night. What me and you have is more then what me and her ever had. I love you Mel, not Minako, you. My heart n soul are yours 100. Please don't let her thinks she's won." Makoto couldn't stand to look at the icy glare from her lover any longer so she hung her head and let a few tears fall.
Mel's look softened and she frowned slightly as she walked over to Makoto and pulled her into a tight embrace. "Don't cry or hang your head angel. I'm not mad at you, I'm mad at the situation."
Makoto looked up at Mel with tear filled eyes. She smiled softly before leaning in and kissing her. She was still kissing her when Rei walked over. Rei blushed slightly and cleared her throat. Makoto slowly broke the kiss and looked at Rei not leaving the comfort of her lover's arms. "What Rei-chan?"
Rei frowned and looked at her two friends. "Mel-chan, Mako-chan I'm sorry for how Minako behaved. After you told her all that Mako-chan she broke down crying and Usagi went to comfort her. I agree with you though girl if you already told her you don't feel the same way about her now as you did then and she still kissed you, I would have told her to stay away from me too." Rei looked at Mel. "Mel-chan I'm sorry Ami stopped you. She just doesn't like to see fighting amongst the Senshi that's all."
Mel looked at the raven haired girl and smiled softly. "Its ok Rei-chan, I probably wouldn't have hit Minako any ways really I just wanted to scare her. She's Maks best friend I couldn't fight her with out hurting Maks too and that's the last thing I want to do."
Makoto looked back at Mel and smiled slightly then looked back at Rei. "Lets jus forget about this and go eat huh?"
Mel and Makoto pulled up outside the Jr. High school and saw Avery and Ivory talking to an all too familiar redheaded teacher. Makoto looked at Mel and sighed. "That's Miss Haruna we better go see why she's talkin to um." Makoto and Mel parked off to the side and walked across the schoolyard to where Miss Haruna and the two girls were. Makoto sighed when she got there. "What did she do Miss H?"
Miss Haruna looked away from the two girls and over at Makoto and Mel. "Well Miss Kino you can certainly tell she's related to you. You might want to tell your little sister here that she's too young to be kissing another girl at lunch."
"NANI?" Makoto almost fell over. "Let me guess the girl she was kissing was her." Makoto pointed at Ivory.
"Hai Miss Kino it was."
Mel shook her head. "Ivory how many times do I have to tell you, don't convert people at school. There goes your toaster girl." Mel chuckled and winked at the two girls who in turn smiled.
Miss Haruna looked at Mel and blinked a few times. "Toaster? What the hell does a toaster have to do with anything?"
Mel chuckled. "It's a lesbian thing don't worry about it."
Makoto looked at Mel red faced. "Mel shut the hell up. Your not helping matters any."
Miss Haruna looked at Makoto funny. "You know her?"
"Hai Miss H I do. She uh well she's my room mate."
Avery coughed. "Bullshit."
Mel chuckled, as Makoto got redder. "Shut up Avery you're already in enough trouble."
Miss H looked at Makoto and shook her head. "You always were a horrible liar. I don't care what you do behind closed doors jus don't bring it to school."
Mel smirked. "Are you implying that me and Maks are more then room mates?"
Makoto glared at Mel. "Shut up Mel, we'll talk about this at home ok."
Mel looked at Makoto. "We have more things to talk about other than this ok. Personally I don't care if they were kissing, I have a more important issue to take care of before I even think about letting this one process and actually sink in." Mel looked at the two girls. "You two go wait in the car huh."
Ivory looked at Avery then Mel and nodded. "Can we least explain our side of things?"
"At home Ivory, now get in the car." Mel glanced over at Makoto. "Ya ready angel?"
Makoto nodded. "Yea let's go. Nice to see you again Miss H." The two got in the jeep and drove home in silence.
The four girls walked into the loft and Mel sat down in the front room and sighed heavily. Just as she was about to speak Makoto's communicator went off. Makoto opened it and Sailor Moon's face appeared. "You and Mel get here quick, yoma attack in China Town."
Makoto nodded and turned to Ivory and Avery. "As punishment for what you pulled at school you two stay here. We'll talk when we get back." Mel and Makoto hopped in Mel's '63 stingray and sped off towards China Town. When they got there Makoto's eyes got wide. A large serpent dragon was entwined around the pillar at the entrance. Makoto looked and Mel and nodded. The two transformed and went to join the others.
Sailor Mars looked at Super Nova and smiled. "We remembered what you said about dragon types feeding on fire so I haven't attacked."
Super Nova nodded and looked over at Mercury, then Jupiter and lastly Venus. She smirked before she spoke. "Oi ok this is 'ow we're gonna do this and if it goes 'ow I 'ope it will Sailor Moon won't even 'ave to fight, but if it don't Mars its up ta you ta protect 'er till we can 'elp ok." The other's nodded. "Now Venus, you're gonna 'ave to put wha 'append between us at school behind you cuz we're gonna 'ave to work together on this alright. That and dragon types will feed off bad karma and will manifest it into a yoma so." Super Nova extended her hand. "I'm willing ta fergive n ferget if you are." Venus smiled and took Super Nova's hand. Super Nova then turned her attention to Mercury and quickly revealed her plan.
"SABON…SPRAY!" Mercury's attack caused a dense fog to surround the area where the yoma was making it vulnerable to attack.
Venus quickly readied her attack. "VENUS…LOVE AND BEAUTY…SHOCK!"
The yoma stunned swung its long tail knocking over Sailor Mars and Sailor Moon. Mars recovered quickly and called upon her banishing spell. "EVIL SPIRITS DISPERSE!"
Super Nova nodded at Jupiter and handed her the sword off her back before transforming into Reyu. "Its do or die time princess." Reyu drew her sword and Jupiter nodded transforming into Amaya. Due to Mercury's fog the others never saw Jupiter or Super Nova change. Amaya looked at Reyu and nodded and as the two ran towards the yoma wings sprung from their backs. When they got half way there they jumped into the air and flipped driving their swords into the yoma's chest. Reyu spread her wings and spoke in a mechanical voice. "DEMON STORM!"
Amaya followed suite. "HEAVEN'S FURY!"
The combined attacks destroyed the yoma. Reyu looked at Amaya and smiled. Nodding softly she transformed back into Super Nova. Amaya smiled and transformed back into Jupiter. The two Senshi landed and walked towards the other's their wings folded behind their backs and swords at their sides. Sailor Moon smiled and when her eyes fell on Jupiter's wings she did a double take. "Jupiter when did you get wings?"
Jupiter smirked. "This is the first real yoma fight since Enyo healed me. Guess its cuz of that." Jupiter winced slightly from the pain.
Super Nova put a comforting hand on Jupiter's shoulder. "Fist time 'urts the worst. After you get used to it, it doesn't 'urt anymore." Super Nova winked at the others and then smirked.
The Inner Senshi sat around a table at Crown Café. Mel pulled out her cell phone and called Ivory and told her and Avery to meet them there. After about 15 minutes the two girls walked in. Minako's eyes got wide when they fell on Avery. "My god now we know what Mako-chan looked like when she was 13."
Before any of the others could react Chibi-usa jumped up from her seat and ran to the older girl and hugged her. "Avery-chan!"
Avery smiled. "Hey Chibi-usa-chan." Avery then looked at Minako and simply nodded. She looked at the others and smiled before going over to Mel and holding her hand out.
"Damn guess what they say IS true."
Makoto looked at Mel funny. "Nani?"
Mel chuckled. "Like MOTHER like daughter. Damn go ask Maks fer money she's your mother."
"I already looked in her purse at home and it's empty." Avery made a pouty face and wrapped Mel in a tight hug. "Please Mel-chan come on, me and Ivory jus wanna go play a few games. Please."
Mel leered at Makoto. "She's DEFENTLY your daughter. Ok, ok fine let me go." Mel pulled out her wallet and gave both girls $10. "There now leave me alone. We'll send Rei-chan in to get you two when were ready to order ok."
Avery smiled and hugged Mel again. "Ok Mel-chan arigotu." The two girls walked off with Chibi-usa and Hotaru into the arcade.
Mel sat at the desk in her studio looking at a blank piece of paper holding the pencil under her nose with her lip. Makoto walked into the room and kissed Mel's neck softly. "Penny for your thoughts ai." Mel simply held her hand out to Makoto. Makoto chuckled. "You really are a dork you know that. Seriously though ai what's up?"
Mel let the pencil fall and turned around and looked at Makoto and smiled. She had changed out of her school uniform and was now wearing a pair of short jean cut-off shorts and a hunter green spaghetti strap mid-drif shirt. Mel stood up and took Makoto's hair out of its signature ponytail and smiled as she flopped some over Makoto's left shoulder. Makoto blushed and looked at Mel. "W-what are you doing ai?"
"You'll see, now sit."
Makoto raised her left eyebrow and looked at Mel funny before sitting on the bar stool Mel had in the middle of the floor. Mel smirked and sat back down and started to sketch Makoto. After it was finished Mel colored it and signed the bottom of the picture and stood up and walked out of the room. Mel chuckled and stuck her head back in the room. "Are you gonna sit there all day or are you coming with me?"
"Can't I see the picture first?"
"No, not yet. Come on will ya." Mel smiled softly at Makoto.
Makoto crossed her arms across her chest. "I'm not moving till I can see the pic."
Mel shook her head and chuckled. "Ok fine you can go look at it."
Makoto stood up and walked over to the desk and her eyes got wide as she looked at the picture of her sitting in a throne, as Sailor Jupiter, with her arms rested on the back of it and her head resting on her arms. Her hair was down and some was flopped over her left shoulder, her emerald wings folded behind her back. In the background was a dragon made of lightning, on the ground at her feet Ahriman laid with her wings spread but lying on the ground and her head up looking at Jupiter and ears perked. "Mel that's beautiful."
Mel smiled and walked back into the room. "But not as beautiful as you are."
Makoto blushed softly before kissing Mel deeply. "Arigotu ai."
Mel simply smiled and kissed Makoto deeply. "Doo itashimashite." Mel smiled softly and picked Makoto up and set her back on the bar stool and kissed her more playfully. Moving the kisses down her neck mixing in soft nibbles every now and then.
