Chapter One: New Lives, Old Reasons, Same People
Isuzu sipped her Chamomile tea and looked around the room. It was so empty, so barren, so lonely… 'I hate moving…' She thought to herself. It was her last night in the apartment she had grown up in. She took another sip of her tea when she heard her cell phone ring. She dug through her black backpack and pulled it out, "Hello?" "Hey, it's me Setsuna. Do you mind if you come over to my house tomorrow." "Sure but it'll have to be in the afternoon. I'm moving into my new house." "Oh, well. I don't want change your plans." "Don't worry, onee-chan. I can make it." "Alright. How about around five-ish?" "Hai. See you later." Isuzu hung up and sighed, 'I wonder what the great Time senshi wants now.' Someone knocked on her door. She asked, "Who is it?" "Rei. Can I come in?" Isuzu walked over to the door and opened it. She gasped; a mysterious figure cloaked in black was holding Rei tightly around her neck. The figure said in a malicious voice, "Hello, Isuzu. Don't you remember me?" Isuzu's gaze hardened, "What do you want now, Maeko." Maeko stepped out of the shadows, still holding Rei tight, while saying, "You owe me a favor." Isuzu cut him off, "What do you want?" Maeko smirked, "Still straight forward aren't you?" He continued, "Rouy luos, ssecnirp." Isuzu froze. Maeko laughed evilly and threw Rei down to the floor. Maeko pulled out two sliver seis and said, "Prepare to die…"
Isuzu woke up with a start. She sat up in her chair and looked around the apartment. She sighed, 'Only a nightmare…' She checked her watch, "3:06 AM" She stood up and washed out her cold tea. She put the china in an unpacked box and duct taped it shut. She picked it up and headed over to her door. She opened and looked back at the old apartment one more time. She sighed and closed the door. Isuzu walked down the stairs to her car. She put the car in the backseat and climbed into the driver's seat. She started the ignition and drove off to her new home sight.
