Chapter 4
Before the two groups encounter…
The group had been traveling for days. They would travel when they sun rose and record acquired data at night. This was day four of their traveling. They didn't have any problems except two infected vultures attacking them. Both of which were captured, beheaded, and placed in containment for further study. The group had setup camp because the sun was setting…
"Mina...knock…it…off," was uttered between kisses by one of the group members. Resistance turned into a moan as both parties' tongues touched and glided across one another.
"But Rei I'm burning," Minako whined. "Only you can control my flame. Put my fire out," she continued in a sensuous whisper followed by nibbling on her captive's ear.
Being able to think a little more clearly with her lips free of her lovers, Rei pushed Minako off and angrily whispered "were supposed to be on watch Mina so stop distracting me."
"Reiii," Minako drew out her name in a whine followed by a sexy pout.
Realizing Minako's hormones were raging and she was not going to relent, Rei did the only thing she could think of- short of knocking Minako out. She grabbed Minako, crushing their lips together as her left hand gripped her waist and her right hand ventured down her body and into her pants. Minako was shocked by Rei's quick actions and released a startled cry followed by a lusty moan, both of which were muffled by Rei's lips, as Rei's hand rubbed her in her most intimate place. Rei plunged two fingers into Minako and thrust into her with fast, hard, steady strokes. Rei pounded Minako's g-spot repeatedly, quickly causing her to orgasm. Minako's legs gave out on her after her climax, but being supported by Rei's body she was slowly guided to the ground instead of falling.
Rei propped Minako against the tent who shortly after fell asleep. "Finally silence," Rei sighed. She licked her fingers clean then resumed her post as look out. She had told the others that it was not a good idea to put her and Minako on the same watch but she was out voted by both Nao and Haruka in the interest of fun. She still could not believe both of them agreed to something even though they did for different reasons. Reasons being Haruka wanted Minako to be happy and that meant being with her and Nao liked seeing someone agitated and that meant sending Minako with her. Mamoru suggested letting Rei guard alone and Minako getting 'beauty sleep,' but a glare from Minako shut him up quick. They gave her what they considered a compromise, giving them the first two hour watch when things were less dangerous.
On her watch Rei did not stray far from her dozing Minako. She kept her eyes on the surroundings and her scanner which was able to show if someone or something was nearby. It alerted her whenever something's temperature was too low or too high within a two mile radius. Ten minutes before her shift was finished she woke up Minako who upon waking sported a satiated grin followed by a thank you kiss or at least that's what Rei interpreted it as. Then five minutes before their shift was to end Haruka walked out the tent.
"Feeling better koneko-chan?" Haruka asked, grinning at Minako.
"Hai! Arigato Haruka-kun," The latter part was whispered. Minako hugged Haruka and winked at Rei as she waked towards the tent entrance.
Hearing Minako and Haruka's little exchange she glared at Haruka as she followed Minako into the tent. Haruka nonchalantly looked at her as she ran a hand through her short, blond, bed hair then started her watch. All other watches that night went by without incidence.

When morning came Haruka, Minako, and Rei woke to flashing lights and clicking sounds. When they got up they realized it was from a camera.
"What the hell are you doing? Knock it off Nao," Haruka hissed.
"You better delete those pictures," Rei growled from under Minako.
"Wait!" Minako hopped up and yelled. "Send me copies of it first," she continued.
"Mina! You can't…" Rei started but was interrupted by Nao.
"You know the deal," Nao said to Minako as she leaned on the door of the tent filing her nails. Minako quickly took out her wallet and without hesitation forked over some cash to Nao.
"Nice doing business with you," Nao smirked as she pressed a few buttons to send the pics to Minako. She then left before the remaining group members could pursue her.
"So cute," Minako squealed. "I'm going to send some to Michiru-san."
"Now you don't really want to do that koneko-chan," Haruka said nervously. "She already has a million pictures of me," Haruka continued followed by a nervous chuckle.
Haruka's words fell on deaf ears as Minako dashed out to show Mamoru. Both Rei and Haruka sighed then got up and walked out the tent to help pack.
"I miss my Michi," Haruka said in a whisper from Minako mentioning her lover. Unfortunately it was heard by another.
"I miss my Michi-chan too," Nao said.
This irritated Haruka who growled in frustration. "Listen Nao, I don't find your little crush on my woman cute like she does. She is not here to stop me from pummeling you, so stay out of my way."
"It's not a little crush; it's gigantic & feel free to do your worst," Nao responded. Her tone portrayed challenge, and no trace of fear.
Having had enough Haruka used her heightened speed to run to and grab Nao by her collar, using one hand to hold her where her feet barely touched the ground. In response there was a flash of light that signified the materialization of Nao element, her claws. Seeing the flash the others rushed over a pulled them apart.
"What are you two thinking? We already have to fight things in the environment so grow up and stop fighting each other!" Rei yelled. They released Nao and Haruka who glared at each other and went in opposite directions.
The next few hours of travel were done in silence. Haruka led the way, followed by Mamoru, then Rei and Mina, and last Nao.
"Wait," Mamoru said causing everyone to stop. He reached in his bag and pulled out a metallic rod. With the press of a button a knife like spike protruded from the bottom of the rod. He then slammed the rod into the ground. Seeing this Nao took out the group computer and pressed a few keys to activate it. With it in place the group continued walking.
"Today is the last day we will spend traveling in this direction. In the morning we will head home. If we continue longer than that we will run out of supplies," Minako says out of play mode and sounding like a leader. "Soon we'll be free to celebrate and enjoy our time," the last few words were said in a husky voice as she eyed Rei with lust.
Hearing Minako's tone and seeing everyone looking at her, Rei blushed a little then said "ignore her," as she walked quickly past Minako.
"Rei," Minako cried rushing to catch up with Rei. "It's not my fault. I'm the goddess of love and you are the fire that ignites my passion," she continued as if what she said was something normal to declare out loud in front of others. This caused Rei to turn really red, yell Minako, and force Minako to stop clinging to her as she angrily continued walking. Minako pouted at being pushed away and everyone else burst into uncontrollable fits of laughter at Rei's expense.
------oo------oo------oo------oo------oo------oo------oo------oo------oo------oo------oo------oo
The next hours went by without a problem. When the sun set the group once again began to set up camp. Rei started the camp fire, Haruka took out the food to be cooked, Minako stared longingly at Rei- who still refused to talk to her, and Nao worked on her manicure with her nail file- that and teasing Rei for Minako's earlier comments. Mamoru took out the pans and silverware. After a quick vote it was once again decided that Mamoru should cook. Water was left boiling above the fire as everyone prepared for their watch shifts.
As everyone was about to walk outside for food preparation and dinner Minako spoke…
"Mou, this is sad. All us girls present and only Mamo-kun can cook. Oh well, guess it doesn't matter because I have my Reiko," Minako said cheerfully. Tired of the distance between her and Rei she launched herself on her unsuspecting lover startling her and causing her to shriek in surprise. Caught off guard, the force of Minako's hug knocked her over making a loud thud.
"Geez Mina, control yourself. One of these days she's going to be the death of me," Rei said. The latter sentence was lowly muttered and followed by a small sigh.
Suddenly an unfamiliar voice surprised them.
"I'm always here to rescue damsels in distress. I am sorry I was not here to catch you before you fell, but I am here now to kiss your injuries and make them better," Chie said as she flashed a charming smile and seemingly out of thin air presented a rose before Minako.
Everyone else in the tent was surprised at Chie's presence except Nao.
"Geez another playboy, girl, whatever. She'd fit right in with the rest of you barbie and ken dolls," Nao said in annoyance with a bored tone.
"I apologize ladies; it's very impolite of me. There are three pretty women here," Chie continued seemingly not hearing Nao's words and materializing two additional roses from nowhere for Rei and Nao.
Chie then chivalrously 'helped' Minako up.
"I'd say thanks for getting her off me if it weren't for the fact that you are still holding her. Let go of my girl or I'll burn you to ashes," Rei said glaring at Chie.
