On apping at sweven

[soldierofprotection]

You should be more confident! So long as you're pleased with what you've written, you have nothing to be nervous about -- especially since you like revising your works so much anyway.

N-not that I think there's anything wrong! I'm sure they'll like it, too!

I will be very sad to leave my friends, but I can't be afraid to try new things, even if I wish Usagi-chan and everyone else were coming with me.

But no matter what happens I promise I'll do my best to keep smiling if you will!

Mako-chan! [Have a bright smile and a streak of blond rushing towards you, biffle.]

[soldierofprotection]

Eh? [a surprised blink there, which quickly melts into a wide smile as she closes the distance] I wondered if I might find you here.

[buntails]

[Hope Mako's ready for the giant hug.]

Of course! I can't be far away from you, right? [No need to talk about the games that separate them.]

[soldierofprotection]

[Bring on all of the hugs, Usagi-chan!]

That's right. [There is that. And not wishing to make her friends unhappy, she resolves to avoid just that.] Never.

[buntails]

[She's not far away in her heart, at least.]

We've been together through everything so far, after all. And we've always found each other. Always.

[soldierofprotection]

If nothing else there's always this place, right?

[And she actually feels more guilty now not talking about it.]

Have you gone somewhere with your mun?

[buntails]

Mm. [Her smile is a bit shaky, but she wants to be supportive with what she says next.] And it sounds like your mun is doing something, too.

[thy_heroine]

Mako-chan! It's so nice to see you!

[soldierofprotection]

[A small nod, her expression turns severe.]

A city in America. Something is abducting people and sending them there.

[soldierofprotection]

Ah, Usagi-chan! [A full smile] Is your mundane sending you to Sweven, too?

[thy_heroine]

[Smiles back] No. She doesn't have much courage to work on an application. Too scared.

[soldierofprotection]

[She nods, understanding, then brightly assures] Don't worry! If she's like you, then she'll find a place for you when the time is right.

[thy_heroine]

I'm she will eventually find a place for me. Hopefully, it'll be close by you and the others.

[soldierofprotection]

In any case, I don't think you'll be alone for long. You're too sweet, Usagi. Everyone could use a friend like you.

[thy_heroine]

As long as I can see you guys right here. That's okay with me.

[buntails]

Mako-chan! Will it be alright? It sounds dangerous!

[soldierofprotection]

Nn. [A smaller, less brilliant and almost sad smile, then.] You're right.

[soldierofprotection]

I think I'll be safe, if I'm careful. [She rubs the back of her head.] I'm more worried about being alone and not knowing anyone again.

[thy_heroine]

Hm. Where is your mun sending you off to?

[buntails]

Mako-chan...

Listen, I know I can't be there with you right now, but I'll always be thinking of you - always! I'll be right there by your side in my heart, no matter what happens.

I'm not ready to be separated.

[waterfell]

[No. She can't let those words go.]

The sailor senshi would fall apart anyway, whether you go now or it happens later.

[She should know.]

[soldierofprotection]

I know. [There's a sad, knowing smile there. Makoto hugs her again.] But we'll both be strong. Where we go -- there will be people that are lonely just like us, and they could use friends too. So let's smile for them, ne?

[soldierofprotection]

A city called Sweven. Lots of people are being taken there, but no one knows who's behind it yet.

[soldierofprotection]

[Does she know you? Makoto narrows her eyes, guarded, but thoughtful.]

Never. No matter what happens, we are always together again in the end.

[thy_heroine]

I see. I think you'll be able to find who is doing it. They can't hide forever.
