Hey, everyone I'm back with Chapter 5 of Goth-Hime, I am so sorry about the wait, I've been busy with personal issues, but I sincerely apologize, I am going to try and update again within the next week or so and hopefully I will be able to keep updating faster, but thanks for sticking with me I appreciate it.J

Disclaimer: I do not own Sailor moon, that should be obvious, but I do however own the plot and the characters Leo and Deon.

Chapter 5

BAM! Leo toppled over a large stone bench that had seemingly come out of nowhere. "Ow" she moaned as she landed on her knees, skinning them quite raw in the process. Looking down at the bloodied skin on her knees and hands, Leo felt her face flame in rare embarrassment as a group of large shadows fell across her awry form. She looked up to find four handsome young men staring at her with mixed emotions.

"Are you ok, signorina?"one asked stepping forward and crouching down, so that he could look into her face. "I'm fine" she replied refusing to meet his eyes and waving him off with a hand. "Hmm…are you sure?" he stood looking amused as she tried to get to her feet. "Yeah, I said I'm fine." Leo stated brusquely, still trying to successfully get up on her own. The young man laughed, undeterred by her rudeness and in one quick movement he had lifted Leo off the ground and settled her bridal style against an extremely firm physique.

Both astonished and aggravated Leo, brutally pushed against his chest saying "Put me down, I said I was F.I.N.E." "See, Deon I told you this trip wouldn't be a waste." a blonde said stepping up with a smirk, he threw his arm around Deon's shoulder and proceeded to wink down at the girl in his arms. Deon just laughed seemingly unaffected by Leo's blow's.

"Leo are you ok…oh!" Mina exclaimed breathlessly as the girls pushed their way through the group of boys that had surrounded Leo. "What happened Bosci? And who is this?" Rei stated her voice filled with worry and no little amount of annoyance, as she took in Leo's unkempt appearance and the man who was holding her trapped against his chest despite her obvious discomfort.

"Leo-chan are you okay?" Bunny asked walking toward Leo with a look of apprehension on her face her frown deepening as she took in the raw scrapes on Leo's legs. "Yeah, buns I'm fine, I wasn't paying attention…" she trailed off as Serena slipped on a nearby by puddle and went flying into the arms of a very attractive black haired man.

*He's gorgeous…those eyes. I could get lost in those eyes forever* Serena thought her own eyes glazing over as she marveled at handsomeness of the man who held her in his arms "Hey meatball head, don't you think you aught to watch where you're going." he teased as he caught Bunny with little effort.*Why did I say that* Darien thought as he took in the angelic beauty of the petite girl in his arms. "Meatball head? Don't call me that you JERK." Bunny replied ripping herself out of his arms, and grimacing with distaste as she remember what she had just been thinking. *I must have been going crazy if I thought for one moment that he was cute…completely crazy* "My name is Darien, not Jerk but I guess with a name like meatball head you can't really be expected to respond civilly." Rei let out a bark of laughter as Serena fumed her face turning a bubble-gum pink.

Deciding this could go on for a while if not stopped, Mina took the initiative to introduce herself. "So, while that's going on…" She said gesturing toward Darien and Serena who were still arguing, "My name is Mina, the one laughing her head off with Blondie over there is Rei, the one with the bloody knees is Leo and our dear bunny seems to be in the middle of a very sexually frustrated conversation." Hearing this bunny went apple red and yelled "HIME."

"Well its about time…Oh Leo what happened?" the red-head exclaimed rushing toward Leo and her savior. "I'm fine Molly, Prince Charming over here decided that I shouldn't be walking with scraped knees so here I am." Leo replied sarcastically. "Ah Bella you know you enjoyed it." Deon stated sending a playful wink towards the girl in his arms.

Behind them Serena fumed as Darien went on and on about the differences between a meatball and a bunny. Rei and Jed, or Blondie as Mina had taken to calling him, were laughing it up like good friends only to have that end abruptly when Jed overstepped his boundaries by putting his arm around her waist. Lets just say that did not end well for Jed.

Mina was talking animatedly to a young man with silver-hair and an extremely exasperated expression on his face. "Mal, did you hear what I said" she asked for the 15th time. Mal ran a hand through his hair, in frustration and hissed at her, "What?" "Did you hear what I said?" was the reply. Mal sighed in defeat as the continued on to their destination.

Okay everyone that's Goth-Hime, Chapter 5. Tell me what you think.
