"Frederick is SUCH a hunk!" Hikari said aloud to Ikkyoku and Tamika at lunch. Hikari was wearing white shorts with a red shirt that said 'Lova' in pink with a heart. Tamika was wearing a short white skirt with a blue shirt. Frederick turned his head to see Ikkyoku. He smiled at her making her blush. Ikkyoku was wearing tight black pants with a white shirt. Over the shirt was a long black duster that had holes big enough to see parts of her arms. She smiled at him and waved a bit.
"Why don't you ask him out Ikkyoku? It's obvious he likes you! ^~" Tamika said to her blushing friend. "I'm waiting for him to ask me..." Ikkyoku told her. Suddenly a girl named Mandy walked up to Frederick. She looked almost like Janet Jackson in 'Son of a Gun'. Ikkyoku growled as Mandy grabbed his hand. "That is what keeps me from asking! I hate her! She ruins EVERYTHING!" Ikkyoku said and balled her right hand into a fist. At that moment Shakira (Who looks, sings, and talks like the Latino singer) walked up to the 3 girls.
"What's up? You look a little mad Ikkyoku..." she said and sat down next to her, wearing the clothes from "Whenever, Wherever". "Oh, her. She's such a...!" Shakira said. Mandy eyes Ikkyoku and turned back to Frederick. Frederick was a German with dark hair. He was wearing a blue plaid shirt and dark blue jeans that were 2 sizes too big. Frederick's friend Tom, who looks like Tony Hawk, walked up to Frederick. "Hey Mandy, stop sweatin' my brotha! Can't ya tell he don't want you? He likes Miss Silver Eyes over there. Now bug off before Ikkyoku whoops ya!" Tom said and pushed her away from Frederick.
Mandy walked away disgusted and Tom started talking quietly to Frederick about Ikkyoku. "I wonder what they're saying..." Ikkyoku said to her friends. "Tom totally told Mandy off! That was great!" Tamika said with a smile. Later that day at sunset Ikkyoku was at a park next to the beach. She sighed and sat back in the bench. "If only Mandy didn't live here...things would be great." Ikkyoku said and sighed. Suddenly a man sat next to her, it was Frederick. She blushed.
"Hi..." she said while looking at her hands in her lap. "Ikkyoku..." he said and put his hand under her chin, making her face meet his. She blushed and put her hand on his arm that held her head up. Ikkyoku couldn't believe this was happening! What about Mandy? Frederick looked into her silver eyes. "Ikkyoku, will you go out with me?" he asked her whole-heartedly. A big smile came across her face. "Yes!" she squealed and kissed him. After a few moments they broke it and Ikkyoku asked a question.
"I thought you liked Mandy better than me!" - "No, Mandy just thinks I like her. I didn't think you'd say yes, seeing as you are the princess of this planet!" he replied. "Being a princess doesn't change anything." she said and winked. Ikkyoku rolled over in her bed. She opened her eyes and sighed, seeing as it was only a dream. "I miss him..." Ikkyoku said and got out of bed. She walked to her closet and grabbed her suitcase that she hadn't emptied. Ikkyoku put it on her bed and opened it.
Inside of it were pictures and items of and from her friends and family. She grabbed a picture of her and Frederick. Ikkyoku sighed and set his picture next to her alarm clock. Ikkyoku put the suitcase away, and got dressed. She had on short tan shorts with a light green shirt. On her wrist was a birthday gift from Frederick. A small chain-linked bracelet with stars and moons dangling from it. Between them all, in the middle, was a heart locket. It contained a picture of the two kissing under the stars.
Ikkyoku flipped through the phonebook. She called Amy and asked to meet her at the local library to study. Ikkyoku walked up to the library with her briefcase for school. Ikkyoku looked over to the 'Mr. Rags' store and saw a man walk out. She stopped dead in her tracks. "Frederick?!" she said silently to herself. She shook her head, telling herself she was being silly, and walked to the library. Ikkyoku walked towards the back, and sat at a 2 people table. She took out her books and papers. 5 minutes later Amy walked in.
Ikkyoku smiled and got to work with Amy. "Buddha himself didn't spread Buddhism, who did?" Amy asked. "Emperor Asoka." Ikkyoku replied getting 'correct!' for an answer. After a few hours of studying, they each grabbed a semi-long book. In 2 hours time they both had read half. Amy put a bookmark in the book and loudly slammed it shut. Ikkyoku looked up and placed a bookmark in the book, then set it down. Amy spoke up first. "Want to go get something to eat? I think we've done enough studying today. And we can check these books out."
Ikkyoku smiled and put her items in her bag. They checked out their books and walked 10 minutes to the actual town, where it was bustling with people. The 2 girls were in Tokyo now, not Azabu. "Let's go to a fancy restaurant!" Amy teased. "Are you sure we have enough money? I only have 18,000 yen($50)." Ikkyoku said. Amy smiled, "I have 10,800 yen($30), so we're ok." They walked around looking for a nice restaurant. "'Tokyo’s Finest Foods'"Ikkyoku said.
They walked in and were seated at a window by the entrance. Ikkyoku picked up the menu. "Woah! They have TONS of good food!" Ikkyoku said, trying to decide what to eat. She took out a pen and wrote on a napkin. It read 'Hunan Chicken, Chicken Fried Rice, French Toast, Bacon, Eggs, Tomato Soup, Grilled Cheese, and Lasagna'. Ikkyoku crossed out everything but the breakfast items. Amy laughed at her order. "I guess you don't eat fancy food?" she said and smiled.
Ikkyoku nodded, and explained that she always had fancy food back at home and didn't like it that much. "Homemade is the best. ^~" Ikkyoku said and smiled. A woman came to take their order. Ikkyoku told her hers, and Amy told her salad and breadsticks. Their drinks were milk and water. While waiting they talked about various things. Right as their order came Ikkyoku's cell phone rang. "Hello?" she said but got no reply. She turned it off and they ate their meals, Ikkyoku eating a few breadsticks.
Ikkyoku put syrup on her scrambled eggs. Amy smiled. Over their meals they talk about a few things. "So, when is your birthday anyway Ikkyoku?" Amy asked while crunching on some lettuce. "October 30th, I heard that's Devil's Night." Ikkyoku replied and smiled a bit nervously. "Where were you born?" Amy asked. "Lubeck, Germany. I was born around 1:30 pm too." Ikkyoku said and smiled. After eating a little longer they asked for the check. After eating a little longer they asked for the check.
"7,200 yen ($20). I'll pay for it." Amy said and set her money down. "Are you sure? I'll pay for it if you want." Ikkyoku said. "That's ok, I have a checkbook. ^~" Amy said smiling. They both left the restaurant. "Want to go shopping?" Ikkyoku asked. Amy nodded, "I need some books and maybe new clothes and earrings..." Ikkyoku nodded, needing those items herself. They walked to a book store first, both getting books. Ikkyoku got 5 big astrology books and 2 WWII books.
Amy bought 3 books, and generously paid for Ikkyoku's books. Soon it was 3:20 pm, and they both had been shopping for an hour. "Well, I'd better go home now." Ikkyoku said. They departed in Azabu and left for home. Minutes later Ikkyoku reached home. She put all of her items away and looked at the bracelet on her wrist. She laid on her bed and closed her eyes. A vision from the past came to her vision. Ikkyoku was in her room alone with Frederick, her lights dimmed, her door locked, and windows shaded.
Ikkyoku was sitting on the edge of the left side of her bed. Frederick was kneeled down, looking into her sparkling silver eyes. He pulled a 3-inch box out of his pocket. He handed it to Ikkyoku and smiled. Ikkyoku pulled the red ribbon around the box off. "Happy 16th birthday Ikkyoku!" Frederick said as Ikkyoku put the bracelet on. It had stars and moons dangling on it, and a locket with a picture of the two kissing under the stars. She set the box aside and pulled Frederick onto the bed, on top of herself.
She began to kiss Frederick, and to her it seemed to last forever. Ikkyoku sat up in her bed. It was now 8:45 pm. "Oh how I miss him..." Ikkyoku said. She closed her eyes again only to be floating in space. Queen Sakura Senbotsu appeared slightly faded. "So far you've managed to keep off the evil here, but there is a new evil. One stronger than Butyl." her mother warned her. Immediately Ikkyoku thought of the man she saw earlier. "You've done a good job avoiding the senshi here, we might be able to trust them. But wait a little longer." her mother said.
Ikkyoku nodded and left space, waking up. It was now 9:32 pm. Quickly she changed into her red, pink, and white striped pajamas and went to sleep at 9:40 pm. The next day was Sunday. Ikkyoku awoke at 10:30 am and laid in bed. She turned on her radio to hear 'I've Got My Mind Set On You' by George Harrison. After the song finished she walked down the stairs and watched a bit of TV. The phone rang in the kitchen and Ikkyoku picked it up,"Hello?" Ikkyoku said mysteriously.
Nobody answered so she got ready to take a shower. Again the phone rang. "Hello?" she said as she picked it up. For a moment there was no reply. "Hey! Ikkyoku, wanna do something today?" it was Minako. They talked and decided to go to the local pool. Ikkyoku took a shower and came out in tan shorts and an orange shirt. She grabbed a towel and left. Ikkyoku reached the pool at 11:30 am and waited for Minako until noon. When Minako arrived she was already in her bathing suit, A once piece.
It had a huge cut off piece from the upper back, around the left side a little ways, and past her belly button. "Cute! ^^" Ikkyoku said to Minako while looking at her green suit with daisies. "Where’s yours?" Minako asked and looked around. They walked into the pool area, which was outdoors, and set their items down at a shaded table near the pool. There were 5 pools and 2 hot tubs. Ikkyoku smiled and took off her shirt and shorts, revealing more tan skin. She was now dressed in a smooth, shiny, light blue bikini.
Minako 'ooo'ed and 'ahhh'ed her suit. "Let's jump in! ^^" Ikkyoku said and walked down the steps of pool1. Ikkyoku and Minako stayed at the pools until 3:00 pm and left for home. On the way home Ikkyoku saw a shooting star stream across the sky. Her mouth slightly fell open and she ran to her house. "In mid-day?! That's not possible!" she said amazed and confused. Ikkyoku sat on her bed for 2 hours trying to explain it. She had looked through books, but found nothing.
"Okay, maybe I was just seeing things..."she told herself. Seeing as it as almost 5:30 pm Ikkyoku decided to eat some Velveta. "Mmmmm! That looks nice and cheesy..." Ikkyoku said while smiling. "Good thing I took those cooking classes!" 10 minutes later Ikkyoku sat down at the table and began to eat her food. In 15 minutes she finished it, feeling like a big hippo. Ikkyoku laid on the couch for a while. After feeling lighter she turned on the TV to JPop. But what she saw wasn't J Pop! It was recent US hits!
After the rest of DMX's song 'Who We Be' Aaliyah came on with 'Rock the Boat'. Ikkyoku got up and began to dance like Aaliyah, almost perfectly. In the middle of the song there was a knock at the front door. She jumped and put her hand over her heart. She walked to the door and opened it. But no one was there... "Who ever is doing this STOP before I hurt you!" Ikkyoku yelled. She closed her door and dead bolt locked it. She sighed and turned off the TV. She walked up the steps into her room.
With her lights off she went to sleep. In Ikkyoku's dream she was stranded in the hot desert by herself. She was screaming for people, asking where they were. All she got in reply were....cactuses ringing? Ikkyoku grabbed the phone,"Hello?" she said in a groggy voice. "Ikkyoku! Get up! It's 7:30!" Usagi yelled into the phone. Ikkyoku looked at her clock. "Oh no! I forgot to set it last night! I'll see you in school! Bye!" Ikkyoku yelled as she got ready for school.
Ikkyoku dunked her head in the bathtub, under the faucet. She scrubbed her hair and quickly dried it while getting dressed into her school outfit. She grabbed a baggy of fresh strawberries and ran to school. She got into the class room 2 minutes before the bell rang, eating her strawberries as she waited for the bell. During a break Makoto ran to Ikkyoku and sat in the empty seat next to her. "Did you hear?! There's a new guy in school! But he won't start school for a few minutes, he had to do some things." Makoto told her excitedly.
Suddenly the door opened. In walked a man in a plaid red shirt. Ikkyoku stared in fright, as the other girls stared as if in love. The teacher clapped his hands. The class went back to their seats and the teacher introduced the male. "Frederick Starr, please go take a seat next to...Ikkyoku, the blonde by the window." As he sat down she got very nervous, her heart pounding in her chest. Soon it was last block, gym. "Welcome to gym class! I'm Mr. Yoshido! Now you must pick a partner! Go!"
Instantly girls surrounded Frederick. He walked through the crowd to Ikkyoku who stood alone. Suddenly everyone else was partnered, and Ikkyoku was left with Frederick. For a while they were introduced to things. "Showers!" he yelled and the gym cleared. As soon as they day had come, it was gone. "6:12 pm and no enemy yet!" Minako said speaking into her brush. The inners were at the shrine, as Ikkyoku was out taking a long walk. As the girls were laughing, a loud scream filled the air.
"Let's move it girls! Transform!" Luna yelled and ran to the park. Behind 4 soldiers ran. Ikkyoku just about turned the corner as...what?! Senshi ran past! Ikkyoku followed them, wondering what would happen. At the park Iris attacked an old woman on accident. "Oops, I'll pretend this never happened!" she said and disappeared with a current of wind blowing through her hair. "Hurry! Before she gets up! Heal her!" Luna yelled. Eternal Sailor Moon nodded and grabbed her scepter.
"SILVER MOON...! Crystal! Power! KISS!!!" the winged senshi yelled with all her might, trying to make the attack work faster. The old woman stood up. "Wahhhggg!" she almost dodged it. A glow over-came the woman's body and she turned back to normal. "She looks like she's been living on the streets for a while..." Super Sailor Mars commented. "I'll take her to my place." They all nodded and detransformed when Ikkyoku wasn't looking.
Walking fast they took her to Rei's Temple. "Okay. She'll be okay for a little while. You guys can go home now." Rei put a damp wash cloth on the woman's head. "Maybe I can talk grandpa into letting her stay until she is better." Rei said aloud. "Okay. Well let's go now." Amy said and left. A few minutes later the other 3 left. Quietly Rei set a plate of food on the table next to the bed and fell asleep on the couch. Meanwhile back at the park..."The senshi...who could they be? Are they really my enemy? I should watch out." Ikkyoku said and began to walk home.
She hummed little made-up songs while walking. When Ikkyoku got home she found something unusual on her doorstep. She shrugged. "Atleast it wasn't the back door." Ikkyoku walked up the steps onto the porch and picked up her gift. "No note?" she said and looked around. The gift was a beautiful white botanical flower, only grown in fresh water. She walked into her house and set it in a large extra sink. "It'll be fine there." she said and readied for bed.
She turned out her lights and looked about the sky with her telescope. Ikkyoku whispered unknown words and laid in her bed. "Sweet dreams" she said and closed her eyes. She put her hand over the clock, turning it on.
