I feel LOVE from you guys! Your reviews are very helpful to me.

Honestly, I love writing... but I realize it's rather difficult when it comes for another languages. Again, english isn't my first language. You can R&R.

Rei's POV

What's Mina doing here? And why she threatened me with the sword just now?

"Mina..." Rei was trying to get closer. But something pierced her on the face. An arrow.

"stop it there!" Rei turned to another girl with green cloak.

"Mako! What're you doing?"

"I'm sure the next won't miss. Don't come any closer to the commander!" Mako kept her aim to Rei closely.

Why everyone act like this? Makoto with crossbow? Since when she's good with throwing something? I think I'm the best archer, I mean...

"Fire..." Again, Mina looked at Rei and said that word. Fire.

"What is it guys...? stop playing around. I don't understand."

Makoto lowered her crossbow. She approached Rei and raised her hand. Thought Mako would hit her on the face, Rei closed her eyes.

"You're not Fire... are you?"

"what?"

"The fire I know... she will be ready to launch another attack."

What is she babbling about?

"I don't know what you mean. Fire? Who?"

Makoto turned to Mina. The tears were flowing down to her cheek. Rei felt sudden hurt to saw her crying like that.

what? what I'm just thinking? why it's hurts? She's the one who cry!

"where do you come from?" asked Mako.

"is it proper you asking someone without introduce yourself first?" Rei annoyed enough from previous game. These two girls always having fun playing around with people.

"You seem to know us well... already." replied Makoto.

"She's the commander, and since I don't really like you call my name, so please... call me general." Makoto introduced herself.

"Well... that's fine, General." Rei sighed... okay, let's play.

"My name's Rei Hino. You two usually call me Rei... or For Mina..." Rei looked at Mina's direction.

"You used to call me Rei-chan."

Oh my God, I miss her…

"I'm from Tokyo. And next, question for both of you..."

"where the hell am I?"

"what?" Makoto's facial expression both now confused, surprise...

"what is what what? are you playing tag question with me?"

"You said you're from where?"

"Tokyo... look, don't pretend you don't know anything. Quit this act already. I wanna go home."

Makoto seemed to ignore Rei. She exchanged stare with Minako for a moment.

"Hino-san. I afraid you must come with us to the palace..." Minako suddenly said a super formal sentence.

that scare her most.

"what? what palace?" It was really confusing. They both looked too serious about this.

"To meet the princess."

"You mean Usagi?" Only one princess out of five of us.

"rabbit... who? There are no rabbit in this jungle." Makoto asked back with chuckle.

Now Rei realized that they didn't play games. They even didn't know 'bout Usagi.

Who are they exactly?

"What is this place...?"

Out from the wood, Rei met another familiar face.

"ah, hey Ami..." Rei greet her as a reflex.

Maybe I'm in the middle of nowhere. But I'm with my friends, so it doesn't seem so bad.

Ami's reaction also, similiar with Mako and Mina. Surprised and disbelieve, confuse, but a little happy. maybe.

"We'll explain this later. Hop on." Mina gave Rei a hand.

"wow, I don't know you can ride this beautiful animal..." Rei muttered without accepted Mina's help.

Ami and Mako rode a couple of brown horses.

"You don't know anything about me..."

"Really?" Rei asked back. Like a challenge.

And 30 minutes later, they arrived at the palace. Actually, the real palace. The huge building in the central town.

Rei's stomach hasn't been good since the dash with Mina's horse. And, what she couldn't stand it most is... Mina seemed pleased and enjoyed it. Enjoy it to scare her. Like usual.

"Follow us." Mina made a gesture for Rei to follow her. This time, she wasn't ordering her.

The palace inside was more wonderful than the outside appearance. Rei thought, palace exist only in fairytale.

"what is it, Hino-san?" Ami has been staring at her since the forest. And now, Ami's curiousity maybe already touched the limit.

"No, it's just very huge. Nice place." Rei answered. She turned to Ami and asked her. Rei thought that maybe Ami was still like Ami she knew.

"Mako... I mean, general said if I'll meet the princess. Is she... Serenity?"

They suddenly stopped in the track and looking at Rei.

"How'd you know?"

"If she isn't Usagi, then it's Serenity." Rei answered briefly.

"General, I think we must contact Setsuna. She should be in the main wing with the others now."

"got it." Mako dashed to opposite direction, to the main wing of the palace.

"Hino..."

"Call me Rei, please." Rei said.

"okay, Rei. I know you're confused. The princess would explain it to you. Though I don't have a clue of what happening now…" she continued in whisper.

Minako open the big white door at the end of main hall.

"come in, princess is waiting."
