Chapter 10
Nephrite walks into his apartment that he shares with Zoicite, Kunzite, and Jedite. As he enters, he sees that only Zoicite and Jedite are there. They exchange a quick look, that Nephrite barley notices, and begin to watch television.
Nephrite stops and looks at the two of them. Every night he had come home the three of them would always ask how Serenity was. Tonight there is not a peep out of them. He has an odd feeling that they are trying to keep something from him. He walks around the edge of the couch they are sitting on and steps in front of the television screen.
"You aren't the least bit curious about Serenity's condition tonight?" He asks as he raises and eyebrow.
"Of course we are, we just thought," Jedite begins and glances at Zoicite for help.
"I'm not an idiot. What are you two trying to hide from me?"
"Kunzite went to Japan early this morning? Zoicite blurts out.
Nephrite lets out a sigh. "Why, am I not surprised?"
'We have all been worried that they would worry about her. He figures that he may be able to figure out what happened if he went over there." Zoicite tells him.
"Well, at least all of you didn't desert me." He smiles at his friends. "Sere will be coming home in a few days and it will be a struggle." He looks down at his feet. "I am actually glad that Kunzite went. Maybe he can find the answers that we need to help Sere."
Jedite and Zoicite nod in agreement. Nephrite walks from the room and out to gaze upon the night sky.
