Chapter 1: The Painting...
Usagi sat in her English class. She was trying really hard to listen to her teacher but her mind kept coming back to the paining she saw yesterday at the museum.
FLASHBACK
Usagi walked around the museum to find a painting that can actually catch her attention. She has to write a paper about any paining or form of art for Art class. To write a background report about the painter or the era the painting was from. To describe it… its design… its colors… how it made her feel and what she thinks the painter wants us to perceive it to be.
Usagi kept on walking, studying every form of art there. It was already 8 in the evening and she still hasn't found anything she liked.
Sure, she's immature, childish, a crybaby, a klutz but all these faults didn't and couldn't change the fact that she loves art, and proud of it.
The lights are starting to be turned off, but she stayed. The curator was a friend of the family and he gave Usagi last 15 minutes more.
She was starting to loose hope when suddenly a beam of moonlight caught her eye. It was beaming on a particular painting. Curious, she went to look at the painting and gasped. The sight that graced her eyes filled her mind, her heart – her very soul.
Painted on the canvas was a beautiful couple. The man had long silvery-white hair, albino complexion, a very beautiful face, kissable lips and stunning golden eyes. The said eyes were looking tenderly, eyes full of love and passion, at the woman in his arms. She has long blonde hair, with hints of silver in them. Angelic face, fair complexion, full rose colored lips and gorgeous blue eyes, with specks of silver in them.
The man's hair reached below his waist while hers graced the ground. They were in a lagoon. Waterfall I the background… lush trees and various forms of flora surrounded them. The painting was painted as if it came straight from someone's dream. The painting itself was surreal.
The painting is full of love – of emotion; however that is not the thing that surprised her. What surprised her was that the man had a pair of cute doggy ears and a beautiful tail. His clothes were like the clothes she saw in books about the Feudal Era. The woman was like a fairy… a nymph… an angel… a goddess. Aside from that, it was her face.
Sure, the woman had her hair down but her face was unmistakable, for that is a face she sees everyday in the mirror. That face is hers. The woman in the painting is unmistakably her, Tsukino Usagi.
END FLASHBACK
Usagi was able to pass her report on time. The painter's name was Rin and after inquiring, the curator told Usagi that Rin was a total mystery but he told Usagi the name Rin gave the painting.
"My mother Serenity and my father Sesshomaru…" The curator said. "And it also had an inscription. It reads:
Love is not about how much you can get
But how much you can give
It's not about giving up
But holding on
It's not about how you say I love you
But how you show him that it's true
This is why Usagi is still thinking of this. Six small words lingered in her mind. Why… What… How… Who… When… Where…
'I have to talk to Puu about it…' Usagi thought before the bell rang for lunch.
