PART 4 :You can’t leave yet !
***************
Usagi stood over Chibbi Usa’s bed , stroking her cotton candy pink
hair mindlessly . She looked at the silent sleeping child . She stirred
slightly in her sleep every once and a while but that was normal . Usagi
sighed and set in a chair beside the bed . Watching her she fell asleep .
*****
“Come on Usagi wake up it’s time to get up !” No movement from the
sleeping Usagi .
“Usagi it’s eight o’clock your late for school !”
“What I’m late !” The now awake Usagi said .
“No your not it’s 6:00 a.m. “Setsuna said calmly .
“Why did you get me up this early ?”
“You need to get out of the house before Chibbi Usa wakes up at 7:00
.”
“Why?”
“Look her mother is dead , she can’t attach to you . It will just
make her more pain and she has to leave . Please you need to leave before
she gets up .Get dressed your leaving in 45 minutes .”
With that she walked out of the room . Usagi got dressed . And was ready in
30 minutes . She sat down and ate a quick breakfast and fixed her a lunch .
5 minutes until she had to leave . She got up and went back into the room
where Usa was staying . Stocking her hair she whispered “ I’m sorry I have
to leave you , but your father needs you right now . You must understand .
Right now I hope you will little one .” She walked out of the room and walked
to school .
**************************
She got there 15 minutes early and actually got there before Mako .
She sat under a tree and talked to Ami .
“Wow ! Usagi here early ! Are you Okay ?”
“Yes I’m fine . I’m not sick or anything .”
“Hi Ami ! How’s it going ?”She said walking from behind the tree .
“I’m fine .”
“Ami am I seeing things or is Usagi sitting right next to you ?”
“I’m here early , can you give me a break !” Usagi said .
****************************
“How was school ?” a courous Luna asked .
“School went fine .” she snapped back .”
“ Usagi the next senchi meeting is at four today .”
“Okay , okay I’ll be there . I’m going for a walk Luna , See ya
around . She walked towards Setsuna’s place .
*****************
“Hello Setsuna , Chibbi Usa .” Usagi said coming into Setsuna’s house
.
“Mommy !” the little picked hair girl ran up to her . Usagi immediately
picked up the girl . She looked at Setsuna and she was shaking her head
sadly . No . I will not ... I have to , I just hope the goddess watches
over her , She thought . I need to speak to you alone Usagi , now . Chibbi
Usa gripped me tighter in protest for me not to put her down . After she
finally let go , Usagi went into the back with Setsuna . “Usagi , my princess
...”Setsuna began “... Small Lad...Chibbi Usa has to leave tomorrow evening
.”
“You can’t do that !”Usagi screamed in rage . “You can’t take her
from me not yet , She isn’t ready !”
“I know , but she has to go back before he ..”
“He will won’t he ? and if she ... Your right she can’t loose him
to .”
She will leave at the at eight , the docks .”
“But ...”
“You know why ... I have to tell small Lady...” She sighed , “I mean
Chibbi Usa .”
Usagi nodded slowly . Not letting the tears fall from her eyes . She
looked straight into Setsuna magenta eyes and nodded . Setsuna thought
As
Setsuna walked out , Usagi slid down the wall and curled up into a ball .
Crescent-moon shineing brightly on her forehead . She cried silently to
herself . She heard Chibbi Usa scream “I don’t wanna go Puu ! I’m safe here
Mommy’s here ! Let me stay I want to stay in this time ! I don’t want to go
back to my Time don’t make me Puu Please don’t make me .” She could here
Chibbi Usa crying . Usagi got up and went to the girls side like any mother
would . Chibbi Usa clutched onto her shirt and wouldn’t let go . Chibbi Usa
curled up into Usagi’s lap a cried softly . Usagi cried softly into her ping
hair until she realized it was 3:50 . Usagi picked up a sleeping Usa trying
not to wake her . Setting her gently on the couch Usagi left for the meeting
. She got to the meeting late as usual . “Your Late again Meat-Ball Head
when are you ever going to take some Responsibility ?” Usagi wasn’t in the
mood for this . “Rei , I am taking responsibility ! I have other important
things to take care of also !” It was then Rei and the others saw the dry
tears that streaked her face . Her normally blue eyes were puffy and red .
Usagi was doing her best to keep the crescent-moon from shining on her
forehead . “Usagi,...” Luna asked “...what’s wrong ?”
“Nothing that someone responsible would need to worry about .”
Usagi muttered . With that she ran off not knowing where she was going .
Tears clouding her vision she ran . After some time , she found herself
under a tree in the park . She sat there for a long while . It was so serene
she didn’t want to leave , yet it was almost dark and she couldn’t get
grounded . She trudged home . She explained the best she could to Chibbi Usa that she could not stay at Setsuna’s house . After that she went straight to bed , not eating dinner . That night she didn’t sleep well . She kept on mumbling “Chibbi Usa come back to me ... Please come back .”
The next day Usagi showed up late for school and fell asleep in
class getting a after school detention . Usagi wanted to go straight to
Setsuna’s house but was told by Setsuna that She could not be there until
7:30 .
