( ^ More please, I want to subscribe to this Kira x Healer stuff
Oops this was meant to go under your post Odango ) rofl "Eh?! Music store...?"Haruka watched Usagi get up as they both looked at each other. "Usagi..." giving a tone to her voice. The girl's sudden movement made Haruka wonder exactly what she was doing, then she took the watch off the plush toy. "Gomen minna! Kira is almost due back from her break and she has forgotten her watch so she doesn't know the time!""Usagi!! Wait a sec-" Luna said rather loudly. As the door swung open from Usagi, Haruka quickly held it open and watched Usagi make a run for it. "Bunhead! ...Geez that girl had no intention of leaving them alone." looking back at Michiru, then Hotaru. "Well... I'm not sure what you want to do now. Healer made it clear she wanted to do things her way-- whatever that is... Mich, I still think after the Shrine we'll visit Kira. I think it's best if we approach Kira, ask our questions... as Outer Senshi..." Looking at her watch, Haruka took out her phone and checked a few things. "Hm? That's odd... Taiki is also heading in the same direction as Bunhead... I wonder... If Taiki is going there, then all three Starlights will talk to her? Maybe that was their plan. Then again... Seiya is showing the same location as Rei... Hikawa Shrine..." Taking a step out of the staff room, Haruka spoke up again. "Anyways... Let us leave the arcade for now, and regroup again at the Shrine later with everyone else." Holding the door open for the three to exit, knowing Luna will have to escape the same way she came in. Using her keypad on her phone, Haruka went to call Mamoru in hopes he might pick up. Looking at Michiru, Haruka quietly said as the phone was calling the Prince of Earth "I just need to check in with him... and Chibiusa." knowing that the two of them are hurting, Haruka wanted them to know that they were in the Outer's thoughts with everything going on and wondered if she should tell Mamoru and Chibiusa what had been happening, trying to include them, and also if they were going to the Shrine later that evening too.

Moisture filled the atmosphere surrounding the kissing duo. A light drizzle of rain could be felt. However, the warmth radiating off of Kira's cheeks could be felt, which made the drizzle of rain feel as if it evaporated between the shared heat. Healer held onto that tender kiss, with Kira. Using her lips to gently caress Kira's soft spoken pink lips. She figured, that a simple, caring kiss was all that was needed for now. One that expressed, genuine feelings for the girl, that Healer was there for her, would drop what she was doing to be with her no matter what time of the day. While the bare hand rested alongside Kira's face, her other hand had reached into the coat pocket withdrawing an envelope. Allowing that intimate shared moment, Healer slowly dropped her bare hand away from Kira's face to delicate trace the outline of Kira's shirt along her shoulder. Her hand gradually moved to slide slowly, almost drawn out on purpose, down the length of Kira's back, to rest her hand along the small part of Kira's back by slowly drawing Kira's body in closer, against her own body. Reveling in the tiny shivers, and breathless gasps she felt to the simple gesture, she used that moment to slip the envelope in between the folds of Kira's clothing. When she managed to tuck the envelope further into the pocket she found, she allowed that gloved hand to settle along Kira's athletic butt. The closeness they shared, literally their bodies being less than a breath away from one another. It took everything in Healer, not to make the moment too hot that Kira wouldn't be able to handle what she was receiving. Healer's eyelids had been closed when the two of them kissed. It was when she decided to take a step back to allow Kira to learn how to breathe again, when she heard a quiet alert in along her headset. The alert was none other than Taiki! "..You have company, Tsukino-san is close by." A few questions surrounded Healer's thoughts then. How long had Taiki been watching? Did he at least... enjoy the show? Healer knew without a doubt, that she enjoyed every minute of that shared kiss she had with Kira. She felt just how rapid Kira's heard was beating in her chest, when their lips connected. To have their shared moment suddenly end because of timing and other elements coming into play. Healer could only smile as she revealed in the imprinted fresh memory. Admiring the girl before her, who was completely in a state of shock, and crimson red from blushing. Kira looked adorable, standing there with the expression she had painted on her features. "AHH I TOOK A WRONG TURN!..... Kira-chan?! Kira-chan? You forgot your watch!---" Hearing the familiar call out from behind, Healer took her eyes off of Kira who was still blushing, to turn her head to the side to acknowledge Usagi's presence. Turning her body more so, in the thick puffy oversized jacket and dark hoodie. Star Healer smiled over at Usagi in greeting, "Usagi-chan!" Waving her over to join them. She figured that Taiki would remain hidden in the shrubbery until he felt it was the right time to emerge from his hiding spying spot. Not knowing if this was about to be the first time out of uniform for Kira and Usagi to meet. At least, this would be quite the introduction before Kira had to return from her break and head back to work. Gesturing for Usagi to come closer, that her interruption was alright. No harm, no foul done. She cast a glance back at Kira who still stood there in shell shock. Star Healer moved in footing to meet Usagi at a halfway point before Usagi would come into close contact with Kira. Stopping Usagi briefly, giving her a look. Star Healer's back was to Kira for the time. As she spoke quietly towards Usagi, "Usagi-chan.. Kira doesn't know..." Hoping that Usagi would understand where she was coming from. "Not yet anyways... I plan on revealing myself to her ... later. This was the only way I could find out more information. I can explain, just not now." Star Healer stood before Usagi with pleading eyes, before moving to rejoin where Kira stood and hopefully had recovered. There was a part of Star Healer that had wanted to say, this is the Moon Princess, I spoke to you about earlier. But refrained for the time being. "Kira, I would like you to meet, a very good friend of mine. This is Usagi Tsukino. Usagi, this is Kira. I know that you two probably have already met, by passing by one another. You two just did not officially get the opportunity to finally meet up."

1pm / Tuesday/ Light Rain/ Drizzling
Days until concert: 5 Kira was too caught up in the moment to notice anything being slid into her back pocket. Was Star Healer just doing this just to put something in there and distract Kira from noticing? Was that the plan, to begin with?The moment last for what felt like ages, until Star Healer pulled back, at the same time Kira did, seconds later all she heard was Usagi's voice. Quote: "AHH I TOOK A WRONG TURN!..... Kira-chan?! Kira-chan? You forgot your watch!---"
Kira silently gasped, trying to snap the shocked expression off her face however all she managed to do was bring both her hands up to her lips as she touched them lightly. "Sailor Star Healer... kissed me..." she thought to herself, stunned. In Star Healer's other life, Yaten is an actor so he would be used to sudden events, even though this came from the heart, the act wouldn't be as shy as if Kira tried to do something in return. Star Healer called out to Usagi, which made Usagi poke her head out. "Ah! Gomen gomen! I didn't know I would be interrupting anything! Eheheh..." and like a bunny, Usagi hopped over to meet Star Healer in the middle as she spoke quietly to Usagi. Quote: "Usagi-chan.. Kira doesn't know...Not yet anyways... I plan on revealing myself to her ... later. This was the only way I could find out more information. I can explain, just not now." Usagi's eyes grew big in shock and her usual loud voice poked its head out. "EH?! YOU--" quickly, Usagi covered her mouth and mumbled quietly. "You haven't told her?! What about at the Shrine meeting?" but before Star Healer could answer, the time them whispering started to grow suspicious. Quote: "Kira, I would like you to meet, a very good friend of mine. This is Usagi Tsukino. Usagi, this is Kira. I know that you two probably have already met, by passing by one another. You two just did not officially get the opportunity to finally meet up."  Usagi leaned out to look at Kira and grinned "AH Konnichiwa Kira-chan!" once again Usagi took a few big leaps over to Kira and smiled. "Oh? Kira-chan... are you getting sick? You're bright red...are you even listening to me?" Usagi asked, then put both her hands on Kira's cheeks, waking the girl up from looking at Star Healer. "Huh?--Oh! N-No... I..." trying to gather up her thoughts, Kira gave a nod of her head and forced out an answer. "H-Hello... it's nice to meet you... Tsukino-san..."Not really happy with the way Kira addressed her, Usagi gave a big laugh and nudged her shoulder. "You can call me Usagi-chan! You don't need to address me so formally! Besides... you're one of us, right?"Kira looked at Usagi, giving her an odd look. "One of us?" The redness in her cheeks had started to fade away. The blonde-haired Odango nodded, and repeated herself again "Yeah! You know... because you're a Sailor Senshi, we're your friends!"Taking a step back, Kira shook her head in a 'no' motion "I'm not who you think I am... I'm not a Sailor Senshi." Confused, Usagi tilted her head "Kira-chan... what do you mean?"  "The meaning of a Sailor Senshi is not who I am." sighing, Kira didn't really want to get into detail with Usagi, not right now. "But but-- ano ne... Kira-chan, there is a Shrine meeting tonight at six! Please come! It will be so much easier to talk there with everyone!"Kira's eyes shifted to Star Healer, then back to Usagi. Remembering back on the rooftop they had spoken about that in amongst themselves. "I... I don't know... I don’t think I should go so—-"  Biting her lower lip, Usagi had no other option as she thought to herself "I'm losing her! Gomen! this is my last option!" if Usagi begging isn't going to work, then hopefully a bribe might. "—AHHH I ALMOST FORGOT! I have this watch!" almost throwing it at Kira, Usagi held it in front of her. "This was on that Yaten plush! You like the Three Lights, don't you?" Usagi's eyes sparkled, as she then continued seeing this suddenly sparked Kira's attention. "Well... yeah I do--" "You know, I went to school with Seiya Taiki and Yaten! It was a few years ago but I still keep in contact with them!"Suddenly Kira's attitude changed and it was like a whole different side to Kira had emerged. "What?! Really?" Kira's eyes also sparkled, not having any idea at all about what was actually going on. Taiki starred at Star Healer, giving an 'Oh no...' expression, Usagi used their names to capture Kira's attention more, and it worked. "Yes! Really really! I can pass on any message to them if you want but you HAVE to come to the Shrine meeting!" Narrowing her eyes, Kira caught on pretty quickly and answered "Did... you just bribe me? I mean I would literally do anything..." Usagi's shifted her eyes towards Star Healer quickly, then noticed Taiki and gasped, then tried to cover her shock and make sure Kira didn't look in that direction. "AHHH--- KIRA WE HAVE TO GO! Gomen Star Healer!" She said, then gave a bow, then turned her attention to Kira, linking her arm around Kira's, pulling her in the opposite direction away from Taiki and Star Healer. "What--H-Hey--wait a sec! Usagi! Are you always like this?! Your enthusiasm is hurting my arm.. ow ow.." Quickly turning around, Usagi mouthed 'Gomen!' to Star Healer, then put her focus back on Kira and continue to chat random nonsense to Kira, making sure she didn't turn around, the two girls turned the corner and had gone out of sight. Waiting a few seconds more, Taiki walked out and leaned against the building, giving her a lecture first. "A few years ago... you gave our leader so much grief with Tsukino-san, we both did. That girl is a Constellation Senshi, Healer. You know mixing with that girl is dangerous, for us. Your feelings for her... are they really genuine? I'm just saying this because I care, I don't want you getting hurt… or too attached to her." Knowing that her reaction would already be annoyed, it was best to say things like this now. "And I'm sorry for finding you, I didn't know what you were doing. So what are your plans now?" he asked, sliding his hands in his pockets casually, still looking at Star Healer. After being dragged pulled by Usagi, they made it just in time, as Usagi finally let go of Kira's arm. "Phew! Haha, we made it!" Usagi said, following Kira to the staff room. As Kira opened the door, she wondered if Haruka and Michiru were still there but they weren't. Taking off the jacket she had on, Kira opened her locker and took out her apron putting the jacket away, then put on the apron as her arms reached for the back to tie the two loose straps behind her back as her hands brushed against something, knocking something out of her back pocket. An envelope dropped to the ground which made Usagi look down at it. "Hm? Oh! Kira-chan, you dropped this!" Usagi said, picking it up but the envelope ticket peeked out which made Usagi's curiosity grow. "Hm?.... AH! WHERE DID YOU GET THIS?!" Usagi shrieked.  "Get what?" Kira asked, hovering over Usagi for a moment before she turned to face her and waved the ticket around "This is a VIP ticket to the Three Lights concert! I asked if they had any and they said NO! Hmph!" Usagi pouted and folded her arms, then her eyes shifted to the Yaten plush doll. "AH-HA! I knew it! Yaten gave this to you, didn't he?!"Kira tilted her head "Yaten? You mean that random guy that was in here with us before?" The blonde Odnago nodded and grumbled with her words "Sheesh... how dare Yaten give you his when I asked him for one!"  Annoyed, Usagi continued to moan and grumble to herself while Kira looked as if she were thinking about what Usagi just said. "Wait... what do you mean his ticket?" Kira asked the big question, and Usagi at this moment didn't think about what she was going to say next. "Yeah well only Three Lights members have one of these each---" there was a pause, and Usagi looked at Kira, who had just clicked on what Usagi just said. "...You're telling me THAT GUY WAS YATEN?!" Picking up the plush doll, Kira pointed to it and repeated herself "YATEN FROM THE THREE LIGHTS?!"Unable to erase her words, Usagi nodded slowly "Y-yeah... I thought you knew that was... him..." she carefully said, taking the white jacket on the seat which was his when he draped it on Usagi. Handing it to Kira, Usagi was even more careful now with her words. "Noo! Are you serious? He looked completely different! I... I can't believe this! Why didn't anyone tell me?!" Kira said, again loudly at Usagi, taking Yaten’s jacket from her and looking at it.  "W-Well... he was disguised... i-it's what they do out in public, I guess I knew it was him because I've known him for a long time... g-gomen Kira-chan I had no idea you didn't know! Really! Please forgive me!"Smacking the plush doll against her own face, Kira then hugged it, buried her head into it, and spoke in a muffled voice "I'm so stupid... I said all those weird things to him. Stupid..." sounding defeated, Kira wanted to hide herself away. Seeing this reaction from Kira was quite a heavy one, Usagi thought to herself "That's only the half of it, Kira-chan... if only you knew the rest... Yaten? When are you going to tell her? I don't think I can hold it much longer!" Biting her lower lip, Usagi spoke calmly "Ano ne, Kira-chan I'll let Motoki know you will be out soon, t-take as long as you need! Eheheheh..." Placing the ticket back down on the seat and then excusing herself, Usagi pushed open the door and already it was a relief to be away from Kira at that moment. Usagi knew she couldn't hold a secret for long, so for the sake of Yaten, Usagi walked over to her favorite Sailor V game and started it up. Kira sighed and didn't notice Usagi leaving, her gaze shifted to the ticket, then picked it up and read it. "...If the Three Lights only have one of these each... then why me? why not Usagi?" Kira thought to herself while looking at his jacket, questioning Yaten's actions, even though they were only half wrong, Kira felt like there was a big chunk of information missing from somewhere. Walking over to her locker, Kira placed the ticket inside, along with the Yaten plush and his jacket, closing the locker afterwards. Then put the watch she got from Usagi on her right wrist before heading back out onto the shop floor, taking a deep breath as she exited the staff room. Everytime something Three Lights came on the television screens around the arcade, Kira would suddenly stop what she was doing, whether it be talking to a customer or working the machines, she was like a possum or deer to headlights, just stop and staring in a trance, then acted if nothing happened. While Kira did this, Usagi kept watch of her and also looked at the screen, catching onto what Kira was doing and watching in particular. By the time Kira had finished her shift, Usagi had to leave already, saying her goodbyes even though Kira wasn’t paying much attention. Usagi didn’t want to bother her too much either and managed to slip out without anyone noticing her leave, and went home knowing she needed to have dinner before heading to the Shrine.

"PAPA!!!" The moment Chibiusa turned and ran into his arms. Mamoru held their future daughter closely to him. He could feel her pain, anger, and emotions on a much deeper level. He wanted to take away her anguish, because Usagi's actions were detrimental to Chibiusa's well being. Usagi's actions caused drastic events to unfold in the future without realizing it. As to what measures needed to be taken in order to prevent Chibiusa from disappearing? He was completely flabbergasted as to what steps needed to be taken. With his own emotions in disarray, he told himself that he needed to place his feelings on hold in order to make sure no harm would be bestowed upon Chibiusa. "Is... is this the reason why Mama also disappeared? Because of her future here? I'm so mad, but I love Usagi so it's hard because I want her to be happy but... what about us? " "Yes. It's very possible that the events occurring in this timeline has affected the future timeline, Chibiusa." "It's so tough, the world has changed, and now I'm miserable! I feel like I have failed you many many times and I try my best to make things right, but it's still not good enough and I end up hurting you more! I'd rather be alone, I don't want to feel anything anymore, this pain has gone on long enough! I don't deserve to be the Princess or Neo Queen Serenity! Falling silent for a moment as he went back to something Usagi had said in their private conversation away from everyone. "The world has changed." Mamoru said in a normal tone that sounded flat, but loud enough for Chibiusa to hear. Knowing that more than likely confused her then. "Of course! It makes sense now." Looking back at Chibiusa, as he came out of thoughts. "Chibiusa... when we were... talking to one another Usagi told me at the time ... that the world has changed. Whether Usagi realized it or not. Her words spoke truths that has not been revealed until now."Seeing Chibiusa's bewildered and confused expression, as he tried his best to explain. "Usagi has been acting distant for quite some time now. There was a major adjustment period that had to reset, after I returned from ... being slain by Galaxia. Our relationship has been on a rocky road since that day. And I think... honestly, we both knew at some point we would be going our separate ways. No matter how much we tried to repair and fix our relationship. Usagi's heart belonged to someone else."
"And with the timing of everything unraveling around us, which appeared to be happening all at once. Usagi losing her ability to transform, four members of the Inner Senshi vanishing without a trace, the Outer Senshi noticing that there was a sequence of events occuring with unknown forces at hand shifting the balance around us (or quite possibly the timeline universe). It could not have been a coincidence that the Sailor Starlights arrived in a timely manner."
"Not too long after the Sailor Starlights appeared, there was an announcement of the Three Lights having a concert in the days to come. Which triggered another set of events to unfold. Not soon after the announcement, you appeared. A soon thereafter, a new found Sailor Senshi made an appearance along with a new enemy. Not too long afterwards, Sailor Pluto appeared with a warning." Pondering on his thoughts, a frown appeared along his brow as he began to process everything. Was it indeed Usagi's feelings that caused the change in the world? Or was it some other unknown force that caused the rippling effect to be felt over two different timelines? A topic that needed to be discussed with everyone. "What do we do now?"Trading a glance back at Chibiusa. Sighing to himself, he knew that they needed answers and quickly. "What hurts, even more, is we have a family together, Chibiusa! I'm scared because I don't know what will happen to her, I don't want to lose her either! It makes me sick to my stomach, that I'm a bad parent for turning my back, and being selfish and I can't stand it! I hate it! I can't do that to her! ""Mamo-chan... do we have to go to the shrine meeting later on? Can we just skip it and go somewhere else? If... I'm going to disappear then... I want to spend my remaining days... with you." Reaching up with his fingertips to delicately brush and wipe away the big crocodile tears that were still falling down Chibiusa's cheeks. "I strongly believe that we do need to go to the shrine meeting later on." Empathizing his statement. "I understand how you feel. You want answers, so do I. If we are out of options and there's no way to resolve this, then yes, I will spend the remaining days with you, Chibiusa. If there is a way to prevent you from vanishing, which I hope to God there is a solution. I will do everything in my power to prevent you from vanishing!" Mamoru's loving royal blue eyes settled gently upon Chibiusa. He would find a way somehow to prevent Chibiusa from disappearing. Even if it meant he had to sell his soul. He did wonder if it was at all possible for him to return to the future with Chibiusa? Could that even work? If it were possible for him to return to the future with Chibiusa, could it also prevent his future self from disappearing as well? Or could that action change the future too? So many questions, hopefully someone at the meeting would have a solution. He was thinking that Sailor Pluto might have a resolution. "You are a part of me. You are a part of us. And that part cannot just be cut out of our lives. I won't let that happen! I love you and care about you a great deal, Chibiusa. And even though it seems Usagi is being unrealistic right now with her feelings, she cares a great deal for you as well. I wasn't the only one who called out to you when you ran off. We both cried out to you."Lifting his fingertips to tuck back a stray strand of curling hair away from Chibiusa's eyes, "Usagi truly loves you Chibiusa. I know right now, you're hurting and it's hard to believe that if someone truly loves you. They would not do what has been done. Usagi does legitimately care about you. You know this, deep down. If Usagi did not care about you, she wouldn't want you to be found. She wouldn't have said anything after you ran away. I do hope that you realize if not now... one day."Slowly rising up to his feet and offering out his hand for Chibiusa to take, smiling quietly towards her. "Please Chibiusa. Come with me. I know that you want to spend your last days with me. You are my family, you also have extended family members in your life that care about your well being and want to be there for you. I want you to be surrounded by family. You need this! Everyone's love for you, will help boost your life force. Right now, you need that love and support of your family to help you get through this rough patch presently." Even if these are the last days on earth, they should not just be spent alone they should be shared with those who love you.

"EH?! YOU--""You haven't told her?! What about at the Shrine meeting?" "I had not gotten that far... yet." Without further ado, Star Healer introduced the two of them formally in a casual manner for Kira and Usagi to finally meet. Watching the interaction between Usagi and Kira was priceless. Star Healer smiled to herself as she felt as though she was now part of the background. A literal fly on the wall, observing the scene unfold before her. "But but-- ano ne... Kira-chan, there is a shrine meeting tonight at six! Please come! It will be so much easier to talk there with everyone!"Feeling Kira's eyes settle upon herself, Star Healer turned to meet that gaze. The emotion that was from behind Healer's eyes were locked in that short, heated moment that the two of them shared briefly. Almost as if an instant replay was on display with her expression as she held onto the gaze that became locked with her own. Healer's smile was beaming. Emerald eyes glistening in the low light shared between the trio. Momentarily her eyes drifted downwards towards Kira's lip glossed, moist lips that appeared to part in ... did she dare say, shyness? Lifting her confident gaze back up to meet with Kira's gaze. Taking note that the expression shared with her was not the same as what they shared not too long ago. It appeared that Kira was somewhere else, in a different place and time. Causing Star Healer's smile to decline wondering what the girl was thinking of. Usagi's sudden outburst of energy made her shift in her stance before she realized what caused the eruption. "—AHHH I ALMOST FORGOT! I have this watch! This was on that Yaten plush! You like the Three Lights, don't you?" "Well... yeah I do--" "You know, I went to school with Seiya Taiki and Yaten! It was a few years ago but I still keep in contact with them!" "What?! Really?" Taiki's expression from afar, also added to the alarm that settled in, as she dug the heels of her boots in firmly against the ground. The earth beneath her soles gave way due to the recent downpour of rain. Which allowed herself to become grounded, holding her ground, steady and firm. Not really wanting to display the alarm of what Usagi just said then. Hoping that bunhead would not spill the beans any further. "Yes! Really really! I can pass on any message to them if you want but you HAVE to come to the Shrine meeting!" "Did... you just bribe me? I mean I would literally do anything..." "AHHH--- KIRA WE HAVE TO GO! Gomen Star Healer!" "What--H-Hey--wait a sec! Usagi! Are you always like this?! Your enthusiasm is hurting my arm.. ow ow.." Stunned. One word described how she felt as she witnessed Usagi practically rescuing her from an awkward situation then. As Usagi hooked an arm around Kira and reeled her off into another direction. Not before seeing Usagi mouthed the words 'Gomen!' before departing the scene. The only things that could be heard in their departure was the sound of water droplets splashing along the damp sidewalk nearby. It wasn't until Star Healer heard Taiki make an approach nearby as he released a breath, "A few years ago... you gave our leader so much grief with Tsukino-san, we both did. That girl is a Constellation Senshi, Healer. You know mixing with that girl is dangerous, for us. Your feelings for her... are they really genuine? I'm just saying this because I care, I don't want you getting hurt… or too attached to her." The radiance that was noticeable on display flattened out in response to Taiki's lecture. Her expression almost turned sour, as a 'tsk' was released before Star Healer responded flatly, "If I am not mistaken, I was asked by Luna and Sailor Pluto to get to know this senshi better to make sure she's not the enemy. For a better explanation, to find out why she's here and what her purpose for being her is for." Star Healer's bangs fell down along her face blocking her emerald eyes as she addressed Taiki. "You're right. We did that to Seiya. This is different. She's not Usagi-chan. She's someone else, someone special. When we met on that rooftop, she felt like... it felt like... someone we had not ever encountered before and yet? For a brief fleeting moment.. it felt like... Princess Kakyuu was standing there right before me. Standing there in all of her radiance, basking in her glory." Star Healer did not expect Taiki to understand. He wasn't there on the rooftop when it was just the two of them. He did not get to witness first hand and up close and personal what she felt from Kira. "I know Kira is not our Princess Kakyuu. And I know, without a doubt that you don't believe me. Nor do you believe my explanation, however it's the best one that I can provide to you." For now."And I'm sorry for finding you, I didn't know what you were doing. So what are your plans now?" Part of Star Healer wanted to retort in a negative light, as if to say, are you legitimately sorry for finding me? but she refrained from making a snarky remark. She did not want the lecture to turn into a full blown out scene in a public place. Adjusting the hoodie, to help provide some shelter from the light drizzle that fell down between them. Her hands shifted to settle down into the pockets of the thick overcoat that she was wearing. Whereas she found her car keys residing within a pocket. Allowing her fingertips to idly trace the outline of the cut of the keys, she continued to talk with Taiki. "I managed to track Kira down to speak with her. After what happened with Usagi. I had already already tracked Kira down once before but I didn't get the opportunity like now to speak with her then." gesturing with her hand for Taiki to follow. If Taiki would follow, Star Healer would lead him towards the general direction of where their car was located. "I was getting to know her, Taiki. And in the process of speaking with her and trying to get Kira to speak more openly. I got... close. Probably closer than I should of. She trusts me, Taiki. I feel as though she's comfortable around me because of the connection we formed on that rooftop. She's even told me that we were never supposed to meet. None of us were. But fate drew us together, did it not?" Star Healer released a long, drawn out sigh as she dug her hands deeper into the coat pockets as they walked. The walk to the car felt like an eternity when it actually wasn't that far away. She suddenly felt like she was being held back from getting to know Kira. Not just from Taiki's point of view. But in ... general. "So what are your plans now?"Good question. What are my plans now? Star Healer stopped a few feet away from where the car was parked. Her gaze was fixated at something along the asphalt. Inside the coat pockets, her right hand gripped the keys tightly within her grasp, while her left hand flowed along the smooth surface of her cell phone. She needed to respond to Seiya's text. As she thought of how to reply. "My plans for now?" Already in the process of de-transforming, Star Healer, was in the process of reaching up with her left hand to peel back the arm of the coat, taking it off along with the hoodie as Yaten unlocked the side door to place the article of clothing into the backseat. With cellphone now in his hands, Yaten typed up a quick response to Seiya, 'I was able to gather some intel on the new sailor senshi. I believe the information I gathered would prove invaluable towards the others. Taiki is with me and we will be arriving to the shrine soon.' With his free hand resting along the doorframe of the car, he turned to glance over at Taiki, "I plan on heading towards the shrine. I had made a promise that I would be there for the meeting. I am certain that you made a promise as well, Taiki?"

As Usagi ran out the door quickly, Hotaru put the towel down after she had dried more or less off. Hotaru noticed Michiru was holding her Aqua Mirror and she knew that could only mean that she had a vision. "Michiru-mama, did you have a vision?" She questioned her.
Michiru sighed when Usagi set her mind to something nothing could stop her. She turned to her daughter and nodded. "I did but I think it's best we save what I saw for the shrine meeting. I did get the vision moments before you arrived, however." She told her.
As Haruka looked over at her and said they should pay Kira a visit after the shrine meeting as Senshi. "I agree. Some questions do need to be answered without the others present." She said with a light nod as she put her Aqua Mirror back in her bag.
"Did you want Setsuna and me to come as well? We could appear in our court dresses since she did address Sailor Pluto as a princess. She seems to be more familiar with us in our princess forms. Michiru and yourself could go in first and then call either myself or both Setsuna and I in and we would be in our princess attire." She asked and suggested.
As Haruka held the door open for both her and Hotaru. Both Hotaru and Michiru walked through the door.
"How about we go next store for some lunch and then we could go for a drive before coming to pick up Kira?" Michiru suggested to them.
Hotaru nodded. "I think that sounds like a good plan to have some lunch first." She agreed with Michiru. As she started making her way towards the restaurant next door through a side door in the arcade. That way they didn't have to go outside in the rain.

Quote: "If I am not mistaken, I was asked by Luna and Sailor Pluto to get to know this senshi better to make sure she's not the enemy. For a better explanation, to find out why she's here and what her purpose for being her is for. You're right. We did that to Seiya. This is different. She's not Usagi-chan. She's someone else, someone special. When we met on that rooftop, she felt like... it felt like... someone we had not ever encountered before, and yet? For a brief fleeting moment.. it felt like... Princess Kakyuu was standing there right before me. Standing there in all of her radiance, basking in her glory." Taiki was silent, and even after Star Healer spoke for a few seconds. "You sound just like Seiya...him thinking Tsukino-san is similar to our Princess. And now you with Kira... It's worse, you're turning into Seiya. We don't need another one. You're becoming obsessed, Star Healer." Taiki said out loud, sounding annoyed. Taiki was glad Seiya wasn't there and witness their moment of passion. Placing his hand on his forehead out of frustration with Healer's words, Star Healer started to become defensive about the situation - yet another similarity like Seiya. Quote: "I was getting to know her, Taiki. And in the process of speaking with her and trying to get Kira to speak more openly. I got... close. Probably closer than I should of. She trusts me, Taiki. I feel as though she's comfortable around me because of the connection we formed on that rooftop. She's even told me that we were never supposed to meet. None of us were. But fate drew us together, did it not?" Sighing, this was getting nowhere . Even Taiki was trying to respect Kira's wish by defending her words. Even though Star Healer had been warned off, Kira mentioned nothing about their other life. Who doesn't want to be acknowledged by idols? That was Taiki's other worry, Yaten using that power to talk to Kira. No matter what Taiki said at this stage, was going in one ear and out the other. Quote: "My plans for now? I plan on heading towards the shrine. I had made a promise that I would be there for the meeting. I am certain that you made a promise as well, Taiki?" knowing they would be early, Taiki wasn't really keen on Yaten talking to Seiya. Watching Yaten walk to the side of the car door, Taiki let out another sigh while thinking. "This will end badly..." as he opened up the car door to get inside, and the two traveled to their first destination.

Haruka took Michiru and Hotaru's suggestion and the three of them went for lunch and had a drive around. Time went pretty fast and before they knew it, it was time to drive past the arcade. Parking up outside, Haruka leaned back in her chair and glanced at Hotaru. "Hotaru, I just realized you haven't met Kira yet... not as you are. It will be interesting... I don't think Kira really knows who we are, but... I think we should start to hint at her and see what happens. What do you think?" Before getting an answer, Kira was right on queue, watching her and Motoki part ways. "There she is..." Haruka mumbled to Michiru and Hotaru before calling out to her. "Kira!" getting her attention to come over. "Hey, we're going the same direction... and it looks like it will rain shortly, do you want us to take you home?" Smiling, Haruka tried to look as friendly as possible, ignoring her Senshi thoughts in the back of her mind. "By the way, this is our daughter, Hotaru." Gesturing to Hotaru momentarily who was sitting in the back seat. The racer wanted to see Kira's reaction more than anything and see if she recognized her. Mamoru ghosted Haruka's phone call earlier

5pm / Tuesday/ About to rain/ Drizzling
Days until concert: 5  Finally, it hit five o'clock which meant the arcade was closing. Motoki locked the doors after the last customers walked out. "Well done! You did great! And once again, thank you so much for your help today!" he said, with a beaming smile as he took off his apron. "Did you get the two albums from the music store you wanted?" he asked. Giving a nod, Kira smiled "Yeah, I got them on my last break!" she replied, also taking off the apron and hanging it from her arm. "Thank you! So many things have happened today, and it's quite strange... do things always happen around here? Is that normal?" Kira asked, walking towards the staff room to gather her things. Motoki had to think for a moment but answered honestly. "Yes, they do... quite often than you think, Usagi always seems to be rushing around, or something on her mind. Usually, when she is unhappy she comes here and her friends all seem to congregate. But it's good she has friends like them, and they seem to like you too, Kira. Oh, don't forget this--" he said, passing Kira the Yaten plush that sat on the seat. Taking her bag out of her locker, she listened to Motoki talking and then mentioned how her friends always seemed to be around her more when something has happened. Kira didn't really understand why at this point, but she would find out soon enough. "Hm?" turning to Motoki, a shy smile grew on her face as she remembered the time that she spent with Yaten himself, having butterflies in her stomach, not realizing she had a tiny blush on her cheeks. "T-Thank you..." she quietly mumbled, taking the soft toy out of Motoki's hands, and hugging it close to her chest. The two exited through the backdoor, and Motoki said his goodbyes and waved at Kira, telling her he will see her tomorrow morning. Waving back, Kira turned around and looked up at the sky. "It's going to rain soon..." she whispered to herself, before taking a few steps forward. Only walking about a house distance, something in the corner of her eye made her stop and turn to the side of the road Her eyes widened a little as she displayed surprise on her face as she heard her name being called out by a familiar voice. "...Hm? Oh! H-Haruka?! Michiru?!" surprised to see them parked, almost like they were waiting for her. Kira walked close to the car and asked "What are you doing here? The arcade just closed..." she mumbled in a worried voice along with her expression, wondering if they might have been wanting to go inside, but they already knew when it closed and were waiting for someone else instead. Quote: "Hey, we're going the same direction... and it looks like it will rain shortly, do you want us to take you home?" Kira hesitated but didn't respond straight away, her eyes then met with another who she had not 'seen' before, then she looked back at Haruka. Quote: "By the way, this is our daughter, Hotaru." Looking back towards the girl called Hotaru, she seemed quite young on the outside. " D-Daughter? Oh! Um, it's nice to meet you, Hotaru!" giving a polite bow towards her. As suspected, Kira didn't even notice anything with all three and acted completely oblivious to what they were really doing. Seeing as Kira didn't answer Haruka's question, the awkward silence between Kira and Hotaru was gone, now knowing Hotaru was related to Haruka and Michiru made things a bit easier. "Uh...I... well... only if you want to, but you don't have to..." Kira's voice trailed off into a mumble, there was still a hesitant tone coming from her but she proceed to get closer to the car to talk with the three of them more.

The time went by so quickly after they finished their lunch since they had taken a nice drive while it rained off and on while driving. They headed back once it was time to pick up Kira after her shift was over.
"No I haven't. Yes we should." She suggested with a smile.
Once Kira approached the car Hotaru turned towards her and smiled warmly at her and did held her skirt with her left hand and bowed towards here. "Good evening. It's very nice to meet you Kira." She greeted the brown haired girl.
Her eyes shifted to the Yaten plush. "Do you like the Three Lights? I got to meet them when Haruka-papa and Michiru-mama performed with them a few years ago. Seiya is my personal favorite. He's very nice." She asked and told her trying to break the ice a bit more.
Michiru smiled as she opened the door, got out of the car and moved the seat forward. "Of course it's no trouble at all." She said with a smile.
Hotaru unbuckled her seat belt and scooted behind Haruka with a smile as she re-buckled her seat belt.

5.03pm / Tuesday/ About to rain/ Drizzling
Days until concert: 5 Kira watched Michiru step out of the car to move her seat forward, while Hotaru bowed and scooted over. At this point, Kira had no option but to say yes and bowed towards Michiru as a thank you and then opened the backseat car door, sat down next to Hotaru, then put her safety belt on. "It's nice to meet you too, Hotaru!" she beamed a smile towards her, then listened to Hotaru as the girl noticed Kira had been clinging onto the plush toy. Quote: "Do you like the Three Lights? I got to meet them when Haruka-papa and Michiru-mama performed with them a few years ago. Seiya is my personal favorite. He's very nice." Her face turned a little red in embarrassment as she answered. "Y-Yeah... --wait, you have met them too? Ah! Seiya? Really?! What is he like?" Kira's eyes glittered, and she seemed to light up, much different from when she is a Sailor Senshi. "I've 'apparently' met one of them--speaking of..." Kira sat her bag down next to her in the seat beside Hotaru, not really thinking about anything but if Hotaru were to look down, Kira's Henshin Wand would be seen for a few seconds as Kira pulled out two albums. "I got these today!" she said, holding out the albums to Hotaru. One was of Michiru and Haruka when they performed, and one of the Three Lights. Since Haruka was in the front seat, diagonal to Kira, Kira was able to see her better than Michiru as a pout came from her. "You never mentioned you knew Yaten! I can't believe I spoke to him and I didn't even know! I guess they have to disguise themselves from the public...but..." Kira reached for the envelope that was in her bag and took it out, pulling out the ticket. "He gave me this... Usagi said only each of them has one..." Looking at Hotaru, Kira seemed confused as she placed it back in her bag as she thought "I barely spoke to him... so why me?"
"Hotaru, you're not famous too are you? I mean you have famous parents..." Kira wondered what Hotaru would say to that, as Kira continued. "So does that mean you are also friends with the Three Lights? Ah! I'm asking so many questions!" It didn't even occur to Kira that she hadn't told Haruka where her house is, Haruka was just driving around for the sake of hearing their conversation at the moment. Placing the albums back inside her bag, Kira tried to dial down her excitement, even though to them it was a big change from the person they met when she transformed.

Watching Michiru get out of the car to bring her seat forward, Kira was lured in by their kindness. Placing her foot on the accelerator pedal, the racer drove off. Haruka got the urge to drive fast but had to put that urge aside, being in a city she had to slow down. Listening to the two talk, Haruka noticed how Kira had changed completely as a person, then Kira took out two albums which caused Haruka to shift her gaze to Michiru and then back at Kira.
"You never mentioned you knew Yaten! I can't believe I spoke to him and I didn't even know! I guess they have to disguise themselves from the public...but...he gave me this... Usagi said only each of them has one..."Smirking, Haruka knew exactly why he did it, and Haruka knew later she was going to tease the idol about it, but first, Haruka was going to do exactly that to Kira. "...That's correct, we did perform with them. And yes, we know them on a personal level... not as much as Usagi. Yaten must really like you if he gave you that." Her gaze held with Kira, continuing to speak to her "I thought you knew it was him, he told you his name so I'm surprised you didn't put two and two together considering you're such a fan. You may have spoken to him more than once, you never know unless you ask him. Speaking of asking, Motoki told me you just moved here, how are you finding it so far? It must be such a change considering all the ruins around the city." Haruka thought she would mention the city's damage, wondering how Kira would react to such a comment. “Speaking of city… where do you live, Kira?”

Mamoru never heard his phone go off while he was speaking with their future daughter Chibiusa. After rising to his feet and offering his hand towards Chibiusa to take. An insistent buzzing-vibration sensation was felt along the inside of his coat pocket. Removing his cell, he swiped his fingertip across the screen to see that he had missed a call from Haruka. Staring at the screen, he debated in contacting her, considering the circumstances. Reflecting on his thoughts, especially after what he had just said to Chibiusa. Unlocking the screen of his phone, he was returning the call to Haruka. As soon as the line connected he was almost instantly redirected to voicemail. Perhaps Haruka was driving and couldn't answer the phone? By having the phone set to do no disturb mode to prevent distracted driving. Nevertheless, he waited until he was prompted to leave a message. "Hey Haruka..." Mamoru paused. Haruka once she listened to the message could tell that he was emotional and his thoughts were scattered even though he was doing his best to keep strong for Chibiusa presently. "I'm sorry, that I missed... missed your phone call. I am certain that you've been told that, Usako and I..." Clearing his throat as he managed to swallow back a lump that was forming. "Chibiusa... Chibiusa is with me and we are on our way to the Hikawa Shrine." Trying to sound more confident as he tried to wrap up his message to Haruka. Mamoru's hands felt completely like ice as he cradled the cellphone within his grasp. The words were there, he just could not form what he wanted to say right away. Knowing that Chibiusa was more than likely listening, he mustered up what strength he could to finish. Glancing down at the hands along his watch, "We will be there in less than ten minutes. There's much to be discussed and time is of the essence. See you soon." Ending the call. Mamoru disliked saying the words, 'goodbye'. For in this instance it could very well be the last said goodbye on a permanent basis, if the was no means to prevent certain individuals from vanishing forever. Closing the screen and pocketing his cellphone, he managed to muster a smile towards Chibiusa, "Ready to go meet up with the others, Chibiusa?" Hoping that he had convinced and encouraged Chibiusa enough to go with him to the shrine, prior to the phone call he just made. If so, he would lead her to his car and drive the two of them to the shrine in a timely manner.

Michiru smiled as Kira got in and moved the seat back once she got settled and took her seat, closed the door and put her seat belt back on.
Hotaru smiled as Kira got in the seat. "Which one did you meet?" She asked.
"I have before and after the concert but I didn't get to talk with him till after the concert. He's a cheerful person and definitely has easygoing personality from when we were talking at the concert. He's a sweet person overall." As Kira pulled out her CD's Hotaru did glance down for a split second and saw the top of her henshin wand.
"Those are both wonderful CD's you selected." Hotaru said.
"No I'm not but I did play the violin at school festivals when I was in school and I still do everyday at home. I haven't gotten played in a concert with my parents yet but someday it might happen. I have been studying to be a nurse." She explained to Kira.
Hotaru nodded to confirm that they knew them on a personal level.

5.06pm / Tuesday/ About to rain/ Drizzling
Days until concert: 5 Quote: "I have before and after the concert but I didn't get to talk with him till after the concert. He's a cheerful person and definitely has an easygoing personality from when we were talking at the concert. He's a sweet person overall." Listening to Hotaru, Kira still had that sparkle in her eyes as Hotaru spoke about Seiya. "Woow!! You three are so lucky! You're famous, talented and you know really amazing people!" Kira exclaimed, clapping both her hands together in awe. "That's so cool though! I'm really jealous!" Quote: "No I'm not but I did play the violin at school festivals when I was in school and I still do every day at home. I haven't gotten played in a concert with my parents yet but someday it might happen. I have been studying to be a nurse." Kira was genuinely curious about Hotaru's dream and the path she wanted for herself. Smiling, Kira told Hotaru about her dream in return "I want to be a musician... I can play the guitar and bass, although, I self-taught myself... so I probably sound horrible to you three... " Kira smiled to herself and thought "Those times I used to be really naughty when I was younger..."
Reminiscing on her past, somewhat brought Kira some sadness. Kira's eyes shifted to the rearview mirror which she could see Haruka in as she spoke to her. Quote: "...That's correct, we did perform with them. And yes, we know them on a personal level... not as much as Usagi. Yaten must really like you if he gave you that. I thought you knew it was him, he told you his name so I'm surprised you didn't put two and two together considering you're such a fan. You may have spoken to him more than once, you never know unless you ask him. Speaking of asking, Motoki told me you just moved here, how are you finding it so far? It must be such a change considering all the ruins around the city." Seeing Haruka looking back at Kira through the same mirror, Kira shifted her eyes to look out the window beside her. Haruka was right, Kira didn't really think much about Yaten being the Yaten of the Three Lights. "Mmm..." she hummed, agreeing with Haruka silently, it gave something for Kira to think about. She could see some of the ruins around the city as they drove. "Yeah, I just moved here. It's hard... there is so much I have to adjust to." Not wanting to comment on the ruins, that bite that Haruka was hoping for, Kira didn't say anything but the look on her face showed she was thinking about the ruins, seeming bothered by it. Quote: “Speaking of city… where do you live, Kira?” Her eyes shifted back to Haruka, then realized Haruka didn't know where she was driving to. "Oh sorry! My mind got a little distracted for a moment, umm..."Waking up from being deep in thought, Kira had to try and remember where she lived. Leaning forward in her seat to get closer to Haruka's side from the middle seat so she could see out the main window. "Umm if you turn left at the next street, then right on the second street... and then... left again, down that street, the house number is number four."Sailor Jupiter was the fourth Senshi to join, but also her Symbol looked in the shape of a four. Kira didn't really think much of these small details, but to the others, it meant more than Kira realized.
