Usagi knocked loudly on Mamoru's apartment door with her friends grumbling beside her. "Mamo-chan!" She called cheerfully. No one answered. The girl's cheery face turned into a pout.
"He's probably asleep." Minako said, yawning. "Lucky him." The others agreed silently. Usagi dragged them bright and early to Mamoru's to discuss wedding plans.
"Usagi-chan, let him sleep. Maybe we can come see him later?" Makoto suggested. Usagi turned the knob, he had left it unlocked. She beamed at her friends and went inside. The others reluctantly followed, feeling guilty for intruding. While Usagi went to wake him up, they settled in the living room.
"How odd," Ami said, noticing the broken window. "It looks as though someone had completely taken out the window." Rei came over to closely examine the frame. She found the shards stained with blood.
"Blood?" She whispered, not wanting to make the other girls nervous. Did he fall?
"Look!" Minako said loudly, opening the vacuum. It was filled with the shards of glass from the window. The girls exchanged worried looks. He must have cut his hand, Rei decided. Usagi came into the living room Mamoru-less.
"He's not in bed, but it looks slept in." She said, sounding scared. Rei knew what she was thinking, they all knew what she was thinking. A new enemy.
"He probably went to see someone about fixing the window." Minako said, gesturing to the window frame, washing away all doubt. Usagi's sad face turned into a wide smile.
"Yeah, Mamo-chan's always getting things done right away." She laughed, but there was a hint of fear in her voice.
"Why don't we go out for the day and come back later?" Ami suggested slowly. They all agreed it was a good idea and left for Juuban's shopping district. The girls had a merry time, but Mamoru's disappearance was on their minds. He's fine, wherever he is, Rei thought as they entered another clothes store.
