AN: It's my birthday, which is why I didn't post this yesterday where it would've been Friday for me. Since it is, there's another chapter or two coming tomorrow!
She suddenly wished she wasn't alone. Lord Vent had always been an interesting man. There was always rumors of how he can sleep with 12 different women in five days and 'get rid of them' just as easy.
Meteor had always been friends with King Tiberias. Well, at least Celestial was. The king would've never let Vent get near her for who-knows-what-reason. Well, guess now she knows why...
In seconds, before she could even gather her energy to shoot a 'Star Meteor Garden' at him, he shot toward her. She flew backwards, her back hitting into a palm tree.
It was like all the air was knocked out of her lungs. Miraculously, she got up fast enough to avoid another annoying gust of wind tumbling her way.
I need to get to Professor Tomoe! Her mind screamed at her. Her eyes scanned the crowd, now very far away from her and Vent.
She jumped as high as she can and flew away from Vent and closer to the crowd. It didn't take long for her to find the professor. He was in one of the crowds, scared but trying to look calm, much like any other men around here.
"Tomoe Kyoju*!" Meteor shouted as she greeted him with quick nod of her head.
Professor Tomoe looked quite surprised as Meteor grabbed his hand and he felt everything around him squeeze. He had no idea what was happening. The only thing he knew was that he was no longer on vacation.
When he felt like the squeezing had stopped, he was standing on his old bed back in Japan, near Juban.
His first thought was to go to Hotaru. But only realized when he was outside, he didn't know where she was. He opened his phone, finding at least 5 messages from Hotaru that he missed.
Hey, papa! I'm hanging out with my friends at Usagi-chan's house near here.

Perfect. Now he just needed to get there before something big happens.
"I'll get it..." Roni shouted to the rest of the unawoken house, most likely waking up half the house in process. She opened the door, finding a tall man standing paitently.
"Hota- Ohayo! Is Hotaru here?" Souichi Tomoe, Professor Tomoe, asked, slightly confused. Did he get the address wrong?
"One second, kyoju." Roni said, the word slipped out of her mouth before she knew it. It felt oddly natural.
"Who is it, Roni?" Michiru asked, sipping on a cup of much needed coffee. Roni searched her brain for his name. She heard Nessa talk about him before, haven't she?
"Hotaru's dad," it was like a lightbulb went off in Roni's head. Hotaru popped up from the kitchen.
"Papa?" Hotaru said with a confused expression. "He's not suppose to be here, he's suppose to be in Hawaii."
Meteor gasped in pain as she was thrown against yet another tree. Three times now... Three. Times.
How annoying could one guy get? She thought as she got up and barely dodged another attack. She shot her spell at him, but he's too quick. If she doesn't defeat him soon, either she will die of annoyance, or the rest will notice that she was missing. Good thing she left a note that she was going shopping.
Use his powers against him! Angel advised in Meteor's head. Still not used to it, Meteor almost stumbled as she tries to makes sense of what she can do. She barely nodded to herself before going back to dodging.
"Star's Meteor Garden!" Her attack went straight to him. The wind softened somehow, not able to block the blow, Vent stumbles as he recovered quickly from the attack.
Meteor hits him with the attack again and again. Everytime he either gets hit slightly, or doesn't. This is going to be a long fight...
"In Hawaii?" Hinata asked in surprise as Souichi tried to explain his story. Professor Tomoe nodded.
"But I got teleported here suddenly when she tried to grab my hand!" Professor explained, quite out of ordinairy as he gets up and paces. Angel, now detransformed as Tenshi, walked up to the group with a plate of sandwiches for lunch.
"Tomoe Kyoju, with all due respect, I don't remember Sailor Meteor having the power of teleportation. Maybe you got a heat stroke and don't remember the flight back?" Tenshi suggested as she calmly sat next to Roni, who's staring at the floor space before her quietly, deep in thought.
"But-"
"Professor, I think it's best not to argue with Sakura-san, she's been studying the new senshi that showed up." Izzy said, looking at Tenshi suspiciously. Tenshi sighed inwardly. Of course he was teleported, she forgot to explain the power of teleportation to Meteor, didn't she? That's the point of rescuing the senshis' families. She can teleport anyone home she touches when she's trying to rescue them.
"Ok, well Hotaru-chan, have fun! I'm going back now." Souichi said, standing up. Everyone waved goodbye to him before turning to Tenshi.
"What did you do to her?" Holden asked, sounding a bit more harsh than he intended.
"Relax, Romeo, she's fine. She went shopping." Tenshi said, raising both her hands like she's giving up.
"Right, and we can believe you because?" Rei asked. This, Sakura girl just randomly appeared in their house after Professor Tomoe arrived. Absolutly makes no sense.
"Forgotten me already, Mars?" Tenshi said with a chuckle as she show everyone her staff, which appeared out of no where.
"Sailor Angel," Makoto replied, slightly surprised, but slightly not at the same time.
"Yes, yes. Meteor left a note on her bed, didn't she?" Tenshi asked Roni, who nodded. The two held their glance for a minute before both looking away, having this unknown conversation.
"She should be back in a few hours. How long does it take a girl to shop anyways?" Tenshi added. Minako almost snorted in amusement.
"A loooong time."
