Star Seeds…

Home Worlds…

Jarosite…

Zinkenite…

Merric. Oh, Merric.

Odette flopped onto her bed, staring up at the ceiling with an unusually glum expression on her face. There were so many things flying through her head right now, she wasn’t quite sure what to do anymore. She sighed heavily, closing her eyes for a moment, thinking about just taking a nap, forgetting all of her worries and just drifting off into dreamland.

If only it were that simple.

After an hour or so of trying to sleep, trying to keep the troubled thoughts from her head, Odette just sighed heavily. She got up, then walked over to her desk, picking up a piece of paper, beginning to sketch something out. She wasn’t sure what she was drawing at first, just scribbling some lines on the crisp whiteness of the paper.

Well, maybe it would be best to start sorting out her thoughts…to get things under control in her head. What was the first thing bothering her? She thought for a moment, then drew out the image of a star seed on the paper. They seemed like they were very powerful things, star seeds. They…where what made people…people, right? Her hand went to her chest, again rubbing where Painite had shoved her hand through. Why would people have such things if they were so dangerous? Dangerous…to the holders of them. Painite had said she could do so many things just with the star seed…

Jarosite had a star seed…he had killed someone and pulled it out of them. Odette gave a heavy sigh, letting her head fall forward, landing with a thud on her desk. Jarosite. Now, that was someone who was confusing as hell. One moment he’d be trying to kill her, trying to kick her with those awful boots…but..twice now..he’d opened up. He broke down, cried in front of her, and he kissed her the last time they met.

Kissed her.

Then had the gall to tell her to forget about it? It was a kiss! She had a boyfriend and he knew she had a boyfriend! She had told him! How could he just go and cheat on his girlfriend…how could he just be so stupidly bold and kiss her like that! What kind of a person does those things!

The brunette sighed, shaking her head against the desk. No. No no no. She was a cheater. A cheater..and a horrible person. A horrible person…who…who might have been that way in a past life too…She might have been someone who destroyed her Home World…Albireo…It was a star…she had done some research on it after she first became a senshi, just to see what she was the senshi of. But…how could anyone live on a star? Was that even possible? Was Zinkenite right with what he said?

She would have to find a way to see if she could travel to her Home World…when she found someone…who would know something…another senshi or maybe a guardian cat…she’d ask them if they knew anything about Home Worlds…

Odette sat up again, rubbing at her eyes. Maybe she would take a nap. There was nothing else she could really do to get rid of these stupid thoughts. Sleep was always the best route.

She stood, then walked to her bed, climbing in and covering her head with her pillow, sighing and falling into the peaceful oblivion of sleep. Peaceful for now, at least.
