Chapter 2
*Dingg donnng*
“Usagi, it’s your friends” Mama called.
Ami, Rei, Makoto and Minako all crowded inside Usagi’s room. However, Usagi was nowhere to be seen.
“Where had she gone to? She is hiding from us again” Rei glared at Luna, who is sitting on the bed calmly.
Luna shakes her head and sigh. “She rushes out of the room when she knows you guys are coming. I can’t stop her.”
The four look at each other and admit defeat. Usagi can be very stubborn if she decided to hide from them. “What can we do now? Since for sure our money had now changed to a stack of comic books (turning her eyes to the stack on Usagi’s desk). I guess we should quickly come up with something. It’s getting late” Ami who is always remains calm speaks.
“Well, I guess the shops are all closed now so we would have to make it ourselves” Makota suggest, sitting down on the bed. “What about some cookies?”
“Yes yes! Cookies should be great!”
“Hmm, not a bad idea. Since Makoto is great at cookies, we should have no problem” Rei answer, before realizing who that voice belongs to.
“USAGI!”
Rei jump to the door and flung the door open and grab Usagi who was listening behind the door all the time. Before Usagi can run again, Rei drag her into the room and closed the door. “So, you do owe us some explanation don’t you?”
Usagi smiled sheepishly and quickly hide behind Minako. “Alright alright. So it’s my fault. Let me help to bake the cookies then!” The look at her and their anger melted away. They couldn’t stay mad at Usagi for long. They always wonder at this, the charm Usagi always have surrounding her, that cheer everyone up.
“So, if it is decided, let’s go over to my place and start working. We have a lot to do” Makoto stands up and take charge. Everyone follow her leads. Leaving Usagi’s house, they head to Makoto home instead since her place has all the professional equipment for cooking.
*They spend the night cooking. Usagi spent it messing about.*
The sunrises and all five of them have black eyes, not sleeping the whole night. They walk to school together except Rei who is at another school. Usagi is dropping behind the others as she started to fall asleep.
“Usagi! If you don’t walk faster, we will miss the bell” Ami warned.
“Cheer up Usagi! I brought along some extra cookies for lunch later” Makoto winks at her friends.
Usagi become alert at the word ‘cookie’ and rush to her friends. “Let’s eat them now! I am so hungry after working the whole night.” She grab two cookies and start popping them into her mouth. Munching happily, she complimented her friend’s cooking skill. The three just shake their heads and continue walking.
Before the end of the day was the ceremony for Seiko sensei retirement. Everyone presented their gift to the old headmaster.
*Later after school*
“Look at this brochure. There is a talent contest going on at the Jyuban festival next week. I am planning to register and show off my singing talents to the world” Minako twirl around Usagi’s room humming her favourite song.
It is Friday afternoon and everyone is gathered at Usagi’s room.
While everyone are busy chatting about the festival and eating cookies, Rei had been sitting on Usagi’s chair and keeping her temper. However, she could feel it rising and could no longer hold it back. She burst out!
“USAGI! Why did you run away from me this afternoon? I have not done talking with you yet!” she glared at the little bunny-girl, who acted innocent.
All the others become alert and keeps quiet.
Finally, Minako broke the silence. “What did you do to Rei today?”
Usagi look at her fingers and said, “I was trying to get away from being scolded by Rei. Rei is so fierce!” She starts to wail.
Rei glared at her friend and said, “Did you try to tell your classmates that Rei Hino is looking for a boyfriend?”
The other three stared at Usagi, knowing danger is coming. Usagi tried to smile and nodded. “Well, you did say so the other day so I just want to help you. There are quite a lot of good-looking guys in my class. Right Ami-chan?”
Ami turn back to her books, not wanting to get involved. Rei turned red and started strangling Usagi. Both of them resume their fight and no one bothers to calm them. It is only natural to see them fighting.
It is now getting dark outside. Rains started to wet the dry land and thunder strikes continuously.
While everyone is busy entertaining themselves with cookies and chit-chatting, all of a sudden, Rei stands up and stared at the window in front of her. Her face turns from cheerful to worry. The others stop what they are doing and stare at her, shocked at her suddenness.
“Rei-chan, what it is?” Makoto ask, suddenly aware that Rei is looking worried. Ami and Minako both become alert as well and stare out the window, trying to see what Rei saw. Only Usagi who is already asleep on the table become unaware of what the others are doing.
“There is something out there, staring at us just a minute ago. It is gone now though. But I sensed something evil. Very eerie. It is something dark and it makes me feel so uncomfortable” Rei said. Makoto walk to the window and open it. Nothing seems to be out there except for the rain and thunder. However, Rei’s intuition is always very precise.
“Ahh~~ No, get away from me! No, don’t!! Don’t!!! NO!!!!”
Everyone jumped at Usagi’s suddenly wailing. They turned their attention back to the still sleeping Usagi and shakes her. “Wake up Usagi! You are dreaming! Usagi-chan!” Minako tried to wake Usagi.
However, no matter how they tried, Usagi would not wake. She had stop crying out loud but her face show pains. Her expression worries the others. Rei tried to sprinkle cold waters on her face but still, Usagi continues her dream. The others start to panic. This is not normal. Even though Usagi sleeps soundly but she should be awake at the commotion they all are making. Moreover, the painful expression on her face, is a sign that something had happened to Usagi.
“It maybe something to do with what Rei-chan saw just now. What can we do now? Usagi might be in danger” Minako said.
Ami takes out her mini computer and started to analyse the situation. Rei walks to the window and try to feel where had the evil gone. The other two, Minako and Makoto continue to shake Usagi, trying to wake her up.
“I guess the peace had come to an end again. We might have to fight again” Artemis suddenly speak up.
The two cats have been very silent during the whole commotion. Now, the others turn their attention at them. “You seems to know what is happening, Artemis?” Minako asks her cat.
Artemis shakes his head. “No. I have no idea what is going on. But just this past week, me and Luna had been having some bad feeling. We can’t explain what it is but tonight, it proved that our intuition had been true.”
“We also noticed that the moon had been clouded every night recently. Even though it is full moon few days ago, we can’t find the moon. The weather is not very bad so it shouldn’t be clouding the moon so much. I guess it had meant something, but both of us are careless. We are all having such a peaceful life right now that we did not stop and think that it will end” Luna, looking at the troubled Usagi, said silently.
The others four just stare quietly at their princess. It seems that some evil had again capture Usagi. What can they do now to get Usagi back? There is absolutely no clue as to who is behind this.
“Damn it! I feel so helpless. Why can’t we be a little more alert? If I am not so careless, and look carefully at my fire prediction, I might have seen something coming and prevent this from happening to Usagi-chan” Rei bangs on the table furiously. She is mad at herself for being so absorb in the peacefulness and neglected the safety of their princess. She look at Usagi and tears of worry comes. She cannot bear to see her best friend looking like that.
