Aurore's Moemon Adventure
Chapter 72
"What should we do with these moemon?" Micah asked, frowning. In the aftermath of the battle, everyone was pretty tired. Prima still refused to say why members of the zodiac were chasing after her, so they decided she would spend the night in Rin's room before they decided what to do with her. Meanwhile, everyone who was still capable of moving was cleaning up the mess.
"Well, I want to have my vengeance on that Mandibuzz for what she did to Aurore…" Lulu said, licking her lips.
"Down girl." Micah said, lightly tapping Lulu on the head.
"How is Aurore?" Sakura asked, walking over to Micah and Lulu, concern evident on her face.
"Aurore and Sora are asleep in my room." Lulu said, smiling. "Don't worry. Micah's potions are top rate, so Aurore should be healed in no time."
"And just in case, I made sure to stock up on Fenix Down." Micah said, smiling.
"I think it's pronounced 'phoenix' down." Sakura said, smiling.
"I know what I'm talking about." Micah said, smiling sweetly in a way that said "back off, bitch."
"Why does Bluebell get to get out of work?" Yuni asked, frowning.
"Because I'm injured." Bluebell said, sticking her tongue out.
"Alright…" Yuni said, smiling, floating over to Bluebell. "Pain's Harmony."
Yuni weakened her own health immensely, while restoring Bluebell back to full.
"Get to work." Yuni said, sitting down on the ground.
"Lazy jerk…" Bluebell grumbled, standing up and grabbing the broom from the ground.
"Hey, Sakura, I have a question." Lulu said, frowning.
"What is it?" Sakura asked, smiling.
"Well, the way you stood up for Aurore like that against Sephy…" Lulu said, turning away, trembling. "I mean, you don't… You don't like Aurore, do you?"
"Of course I like him!" Sakura said, smiling. "I like all of you!"
"…" Lulu said, hitting her head against the wall in frustration. She turned back to Sakura, frowning. "That's not what I meant. I meant the other kind of like."
"Other kind of like…" Sakura said, frowning. "Oh…"
Sakura's face flushed. "OH!"
"Well?" Lulu asked, frowning.
"Well, I mean, he's pretty cool." Sakura said, smiling. "And he's also really noble, but I don't know if I can think about him like that, you know?"
"Okay, I understand." Lulu said, smiling.
"Then again, he is pretty cute." Sakura giggled.
"…" Lulu said, frowning.
"Well, aren't you happy?" Lauren asked, standing next to Lulu, smiling. "You hear about Sora being unable to have sex with Aurore, but now you hear that Sakura's thinking about him."
"…" Lulu said, frowning. We aren't talking about this now.
"Well, you're not at least." Lauren smirked. "Although, at least the only people that have had sex with him are his moemon and-"
"Be quiet." Lulu said, frowning.
"Huh? You say something?" Sakura asked, turning back to Lulu.
"You know, Lulu…" Lauren said, smiling. "You know how skilled I am… My power, my influence… I can make Aurore fall in love with you, if you wanted…"
I don't want that. Lulu thought, staring at Sakura, smiling. I love Aurore… But I know he won't be with me. I know that he will choose someone over me. And I'll always love him. Even when we are separated.
"Ah. So you're going to become his mistress then." Lauren said, nodding.
"You have someone you love too, don't you?" Lulu asked, turning to Lauren, Lauren surprised.
"You know what, this isn't much fun." Lauren said, frowning. "I'll leave you to your business, kid." Lauren disappeared, Lulu smiling.
"Hey, Sakura." Lulu said, walking over to Sakura, patting her on the shoulder.
"Yeah?" Sakura asked, smiling.
"Good luck with Aurore, got it?" Lulu said, smiling. "I'd love it if you two end up happy together."
"…What?" Sakura asked, blushing, confused. "I was kidding, though."
"Sure you were." Lulu said, grinning.
"Lulu..." Lulu turned around and saw Sora standing at the base of the stairs, frowning sadly.
"Oh, Sora…" Lulu said, running over to the moemon. She and Sakura wrapped their arms around Sora, hugging her, Sora looking down sadly.
"I'm awake…" Sora said, frowning.
"Yeah, how are you doing?" Lulu asked, frowning.
"I'm sorry…" Sora said, staring at Sakura and Lulu, tears welling up in sadness.
"Oh, you mean that you remember…" Lulu said, staring at Sora, shocked, blushing.
"I remember it…" Sora said, nodding sadly. "All of it. I hurt all of you, and I'm sorry…"
"…" Bluebell walked over to Sora, frowning.
"Listen, kid!" Bluebell said, frowning, grabbing Sora's hair, pulling it in pain. "We're your FRIENDS! You don't have to worry about us, it's our job to worry about you! You've got that… thing inside of you, and we're all worried about you! So don't worry about making us hurt! We're your friends!"
"…Bluebell…" Sora said, staring at Bluebell, shocked. "I… I…"
Sora collapsed to the ground, and held her hands over her face, tears falling from her cheeks.
"I'm so…" Sora sniffed, looking up at Bluebell. "I'm so happy… I've never really had that many friends before, and…" Sora sniffed again.
"Bluebell!" Sora cried, hugging her friend.
"Made her cry." Lulu and Sakura said together, smirking.
"Shut it!" Bluebell said, frowning.
"…" Aurore said, staring at the two from the stairs, smiling. Good for you, Sora. You've finally realized all the friends you have…
"Master." Sora said, turning to Aurore, smiling. "I'm so glad you're here! Bluebell and I are friends now!"
"Silly girl." Aurore said, laughing. "You don't realize? These are your real friends. They've always been your friends."
"Really?" Sora asked, smiling.
"Yeah, I guess." Bluebell said, shrugging.
"You don't need me as much as you used to." Aurore said, smiling. "You've got all these friends now, you don't need me as much."
EoS: How sweet, she finally realized she has friends!
Lauren: Okay, that's nice.
