New Sailor Story

Episode 29: Unlocking Bonding Hearts pt 2

Mina
Mina stayed in Hawk's apartment.
"Hawk, I just want to know, how close are Rei and Henrique that it made her bracelet transform?"(Mina says in a light tone)
"You're not jealous are you?"(Hawk)
Mina sincerely shakes her head.
"I think she should be the leader of the scouts for now. She has her mind in the right place out of all of us."(Mina)
"Well that's good. But one day you will know how close they feel towards each other in time"(Hawk)
"You really believe that?"(Mina)
"Of course! We are on a good track right now. It's just that Rei has been here for longer. So that helps it a lot"(Hawk)
"I see."(Mina)
"Don't worry, you guys are already strong without the transforming of the bracelet. It's just different when you fight with love in your heart. You would know that, wouldn't you?"(Hawk)
Mina nods her head think about it.
"When Rei carries Henrique in her heart, whenever she's on a mission, she would just have more light in her determination. Knowing that Henrique is always there for her even when he's not with her physically just naturally gives her more power."(Hawk)
Mina nods some more.
"I'm sorry I don't feel that close with you yet. I thought I was."(Mina)
Hawk looked at her and sets his finger under her chin.
"Like I said, we on the right track and I actually mean it. And I already like where we are in our relationship. So don't worry."(Hawk)
"Hawk, do you think, Lita is doing okay?"(Mina)
"I think it will just take a little bit of healing for her."(Hawk)
"Do we know when we can go to the 100 acre wood?"(Mina)
"You guys really want to go there, don't you?"(Hawk chuckles)
"I do! I really love stuffed animals and Rei always talks about how they look like dolls."(Mina)
"That does sound like your type of land. But just remember it's a lot of forest. Just expect that. And the stuffed animals are not your size. They are still giants."(Hawk)
Mina thinks about that fact that Hawk just mentioned. As much as she hates to admit it, she doesn't like to be reminded that she's a mini person.
"Hawk, if I ever asked you to keep something a secret, would you keep it for me?"(Mina says cautiously)
"Yes, I would"(Hawk)
Mina looks into his eyes wondering if she could trust to tell him about the fairy land in neverland, that Rei talks about.
"I want to tell you, because it's something we all want to do, but we all vowed to never tell anyone."(Mina)
"But it's ok Mina, I'll keep your secret"(Hawk)
"I don't know."(Mina)
"I only tell the others when it's something serious that I don't know how to fix."(Hawk)
"Hmm, I'll tell you later..."(Mina decides)
"Ok, whenever you're ready. As long as it's not taking an emotional toll on you"(Hawk)
Mina nods

Lita
Terence cradles Lita on the way to the apartment.
"Please, don't ever let me go."(Lita says after everything she's been through in the day)
"I'll always be here for you, Lita. Do you want to talk about it?"(Terence)
"No.. Ask Serena or them. Or Mina"(Lita whispers)
"Ok, you don't have to talk about it yet. Take your time."(Terence)

"Are you sleepy now?"(Terence)
Lita felt a little shy to ask for something she'd never ask for before.
"Can... I sleep with you today? I really don't want to be alone."(Lita)
Terence blushed a little bit.
"Why... Of course Lita. Why not?"(Terence says hesitating a bit)
They arrive at the apartment.
"You don't want me to?"(Lita)
"I don't mind. I'm just surprised that you want to. But you can sleep with me. That's ok."(Terence)
Terence lifts her up to his face and magically cleaned her up and changed her clothes to pajamas.
He puts Lita back against his shoulder.
Lita pinches his shirt and buries her face into his shoulder and tries to go to sleep.
'I never seen her get like this.'(Terence says concerned)
"Terence?"(Lita)
"Yes, love?"(Terence)
Lita starts to sob.
"What would you guys do, if I became a villain?"(Lita)
"What? Why do you ask?"(Terence)
Lita tries to explain but it was hard to articulate her words.
"They tried to inject me. And I was supposed to become their sidekick that does evil things for them."(Lita)
"Oh, Lita..."(Terence started to feel really sorry for her)
"I was really scared. I couldn't transform. And I thought you guys would try to kill me if I try to attack you guys."(Lita)
"Lita... I would never let that happen."(Terence starts to cry a bit)
Lita lifts her face to see Terence wipe his eyes to hid his emotion.
She was a bit surprised at his reaction.
"But...would the rest try to kill me?"(Lita)
Terence sits on the couch to really try to soothe her and starts talking in a soothing voice.
"No..."(Terence)
"Can you ask them?"(Lita)
"Yes, I will. But I assure you, that they wouldn't be able to. They'd rather die first than to fight you. Especially Serena."(Terence)
"How about this? We'll tell them to gather at Serena's house and we'll talk about it."(Terence)
"But, I'm so embarrassed. And what if they lie to me?"(Lita)
"You have nothing to be embarrassed about, Lita. And we have empath ability. We can tell if someone is lying. And I will never lie to you."(Terence)
Terence lies on the couch and lets Lita lay on him however she wanted.
"Terence. Why didn't you come to rescue me? Why did they send Henrique and Damian?"(Lita)
"Because they knew I'd make irrational decisions if I was there to save you."(Terence)
"Did you want to come?"(Lita)
"Of course I did."(Terence)
"Can you be the one to rescue me next time?"(Lita)
"I'll try, Lita. I promise."(Lita)
Then Lita fell asleep.
