Tsuki laughed softly as she sat at the large computer like object, trying to carry on a conversation with Tigers eye, otherwise known as Tora. However she could hardly focus as the four kids clambered all over her.
"Can you monkeys go bug Yaten for a few minutes? Geez….remind me to set up the extra room as a play area!" Eclipse lightly grumbled, only to earn a group of giggles.
"Come on…No annoying your Mama. Go bother Shin…" Yaten stated, shooing the kids off.
"They're cute…what's easier? Them now or before when they were older?" tigers eye/Tora chuckled, earning a sigh.
"Well I think they have more energy now but I don't have to put up with romance drama." Tsuki retorted, laughing as she had to dodge one of Shin's light beams.
"I'll let you go take care of that circus. We'll be home in a day or so…see you later." He stated before switching the screen off.
Turning to find her family, Tsuki burst out laughing as she saw Shin teleporting out of the children's reach.
"Let's go grab some dinner…Then we'll go see if we can't run some of that energy off." She laughed, only to have Junjun jump onto her back.
"Careful." Yaten snickered, ruffling the girl's hair.
Dinner went along without a hitch, though what surprised Karunā the most of how the group of royals got along. Besides stuffy dinners like she had expected they were more like a family gathering.
"You've got to try this…Jupiter really out did herself this time!" Nephrite stated, earning a chuckle from everyone.
"Thanks…I think." The lightening Senshi retorted just as Kunzite retorted
"Must you talk with your mouth full Nephrite?"
All this overwhelmed the young girl, though what surprised her more was when a white cat jumped unto the table and took food directly from Venus's plate.
"Artemis! I was going to eat that!" the senshi of love growled, though what surprised the young thief more was when the cat seemed to stick its tongue out at her.
"Um…Excuse me….but did that cat just?" Karunā began, earning a collective laugh from everyone.
"That's Artemis…" Venus stated, laughing a bit as the cat leaped up onto the table.
"He's one of the few advisers we have." Jupiter stated, just as the door opened.
"Sorry I'm late…Practice got a little out of hand." A gruff voice stated, earning a chuckle from everyone as a tall, blonde figure walked in.
"What did I miss today? I've been busy chasing down delinquents and dealing with these four little monkeys." Tsuki stated, ruffling Vesves's hair in the process.
"Two breakdowns, a crash and a lot of cussing." The butch sighed, sinking down into the nearest chair.
"Ugh...glad I had senshi business then." Eclipse retorted.
"I think that's the only time we've ever heard you say that." Mars teased, earning a glare.
"Have you ever tried running on glass?" the senshi of darkness countered causing everyone to laugh.
Karunā was shocked to see all of these seemingly very different people getting along. Each of them overwhelming in some way.
The queen and king themselves were almost mystical, though they too seemed more laid back than what she would had imagined. The others radiated sheer power, even the soldiers that sat alongside them. However the one who made her the most uncomfortable was the blonde that had just walked in.
She seemed distant, gruff even. Though one could see the kindness shimmering in her eyes. Suddenly she was glad that Eclipse had been the one to catch her and not the blonde who could only be the wind senshi.
"You will make it to the tournament tomorrow right?" Jupiter asked Eclipse, earning a smirk.
"Yeah. As soon as we figure out something to do with her." Tsuki replied, pulling everyone's attention toward Karunā.
"You better…The only reason we agreed to enter the tournament was because it's to raise money for a new hospital in town. I better get to at least fight my sister." Uranus stated.
"Speaking of the tournament where is the rest of your family?" The king asked, earning a groan.
"Hotaru is sick."
Haruka's answer caused everyone to flinch.
"Everything went screwy after Chibi-Usa went back to her time." Mars stated, earning a chuckle.
"Yeah…Hotaru's age messed up and our powers unlocked." Serenity recalled, earning a smirk.
"You became less of a klutz." Tsuki teased, earning an eye roll.
"Thank goodness for that! After all you or Menyani either one can't stand up enough for the whole court!"
