The Right to Die Chapter 14 Hi! I'm back. Forgive me readers for I have been a very bad girl. I was kicked off the computer and now I'm back. I am really sorry that I have been gone so long. While in exile, I have made some friends. They love anime and have created some really awesome sites. http://samichan.homestead.com/ or http://www.animenetwork.com/otakuland/ http://Foreverdragonball.homestead.com/ForeverDragon.html http://duomaxwellandgohan.homestead.com/ Anyway, enjoy the story. Disclaimer: Ok, as future president of the United States I have decided that I will attempt to buy Sailor Moon and give it to all the Moonies out there. (Sigh I wish) Vote for Me! Serenity's Point of View I run back to my room to the shower. It is inevitable that I will go to school, 'icky!!!!!', but I can delay it as long as possible! Upon entering the bathroom, I realize that there is no shower. (AN Anyone ever seen the Matrix?) "Well crap!" 'I might as well test my burgeoning powers? wait a second, hold up, did I just say what I thought I said? Burgeoning? Where did that come from? Oh well. Shower. Shower. Need a shower.' I close my eyes as I think. I don't feel anything. "Aren't I supposed to be tingling or something?" I open my eyes and see? absolutely nothing. "That worked." Suddenly a showerhead appears from the marble wall above the marble bath. Then, a glass wall starts rising from the rim of the bath. As soon as the glass stops rising, it frosts. "Yes! I did it! I actually figured out how to use my powers." "Crap." I remember that it I don't shower now, I won't shower at all. Zoisite's Point of View After pounding and kicking the training room doors and screaming at the top of my lungs, I sit down to figure out how to get out of here. 'Geeze, all I was trying to do was get her excited about school. It would have excited me. Well, people these days have no appreciation for education. Humph. Now, how am I going to get out of here? I obviously can't break down the doors and Mercury herself created, to be impermeable. I guess that I have to use my magic. Ice can't open these doors unless?' Quickly I stand up and walk to the door. I create a ball of snow and shove it into the keyhole. Then I freeze it so it fits the size and shape of the key. I turn it. "YES!!!! It works! I am a genius! Not that I didn't already know that." I open the door and walk out of the room. "Where is Serenity?" I ask Jedite, who is standing by the door with his hands behind his back whistling innocently. "Serenity who? Queen Serenity? She is in the?" I cut him off, "Not Queen Serenity, Princess Serenity." "She is on Earth, remember?" "Arrrrrggggghhhh! You are impossible." "I try." I throw my hands up in the air, frustrated, and stalk off. 'How do I find her? She isn't going to give herself away. She can elude me very well.' "No one can outsmart The Great Zoisite!" I trip over nothing and end up with my face in Serenity's favorite plant. "ARRRRRGGGGGHHHH!!!!! You're all against me! Aren't you?" I hear snickering and I turn around to see Nephrite and Jedite burst into laughter. "Humph." I pick myself off the ground and dust myself off. 'Ok, back to the task at hand, if I were Serenity, where would I be? Well, for one thing, I am all hot and sweaty and I hate that. So I would go take a shower, then I would go find me a beg for forgiveness, then? Wait a minute, back up, rewind. I would be in the shower.' I pat myself on the back and head to Serenity's chambers. As I walk, I think, 'Ok, now I'm mad. This is cutting into my class time! This is not fair!' Suddenly I hear, in my head 'Life isn't fair Zoisite.' 'Who asked you Nephrite?' 'I was just coming to apologize for laughing at you. Sometimes you get extremely arrogant and when you get arrogant you become clumsy.' 'You are forgiven.' 'Now, I really want to ask you, did you really think that the Princess was going to come willingly to school?' 'Of course, I would.' 'Yes, you would, but after watching her on Earth?' 'Ok, ok I get your point. Now please let me be. I have to figure out a way to get her to come with me to school.' 'Don't worry about it, she will come. She has a strong sense of obligation. She is the one who wants to change. She will come.' I feel Nephrite pull out of my mind. 'I might as well set up for Serenity. She will come. Now, how can I explain math in a way that it can be fun?' I walk to the 'school room' and prepare the locks. Serenity's Point of View As I get out of the shower I think, 'Why hasn't Zoisite come to break down the door yet? Oh well, out of sight out of mind. I'll bet Minako-chan would've messed that one up. Minna-chan?' Suddenly I am not in such of a good mood anymore. I don't feel very well. 'Stop moping. You have got to put them behind you.' I say to myself. 'But they don't love me anymore.' My insecure side shows up. 'They ditched you. They wronged you. You need to show them that you are not what they think.' 'But why do they think that I am so bad?' My insecure side says with a whiney tone. 'Because you are. You are klutzy, pathetic, weak, stupid, insecure, inferior, and a total failure. But you were offered a second chance. You can mend your ways and become what they always wanted. They never liked you, they pointed out faults, but they were wrong. You are their Princess and they wronged you. You the one that they sworn to protect and love. Shape up Usagi. Prove them wrong. No longer will you be a failure. No longer the Usagi you once were.' Determinedly I dry off get dressed and look for Zoisite. He wasn't that hard to find considering the signs made of ice on the wall saying "This way to the School". Upon entering the "schoolroom", I find a comfortable setting with couches overstuffed chairs, a nice desk and a giant computer screen in the front of the room. Zoisite was tinkering with a laptop computer. He was concentrating and didn't see me walk in. I tap him on the shoulder, put my hands behind my back, and said, "I'm ready to begin class now Zoisite, I mean teacher. Sorry I was late I needed to take a shower after my workout." Surprisingly he smiled and said, "That's ok, don't worry about it. Don't call me teacher, I might get cocky." He sits on one of the overstuffed chairs and I sit across from him with my legs crossed. "I am basically going to tell you the curriculum. First, I am going to catch you up with your class. Then, I hope to put you all of the way through High School in the remaining time so you can enter college with the rest of us. Does that sound good?" "Yeah!" I say brightly. "This way I don't have to worry about running into the Senshi." Zoisite looked startled. "What? Did you think that I would cry forever?" "No, it isn't that. It is just, um, Queen Serenity thought she had sealed your memories of them." "Oh, well, I guess I broke the barrier. Oh well. It doesn't matter anyway. Let's get to work." Hi! That's it for chapter 14. What do you think? I must apologize and think all of the people who e-mailed me while I was exiled. Peace, love, and frisbees. @~~~{~~~ Aurora Serenity
