I’ll finish my talk about yesterday.
We have a new student Kuroki Mio-san who is an idol, like Aino Minako, only she has just appeared and is already ’super-popular’. Usagi-chan doesn’t seem to be taking too well to this…she feels bound by a loyalty to Aino Minako to not like her so much, and the others in the class are all very excited and paying her a lot of attention.
She does seem okay; but I worry, of course, especailly Usagi-chan was hit by her serves, several times while the class was playing volleyball, even once in the nose.
*chews thumb* Kuroki-san was apologetic about it, and Usagi-chan stubbornly refuses to back down. But then I could swear she hit Usagi-chan on purpose…maybe I’m seeing monsters were there aren’t any.
Training, though, training, even after the extra sessions, didn’t go quite so well, in itself; but then Artemis-san, Sailor Venus’s cat came into the room. He explained to us Sailor Venus is worried about Kuroki Mio, but then there was a youma…so of course discussion had to be put on hold. *ahem*
In a sense it was useful, I’ve been able to practice using the tambourine’s some more. They’re an interesting device. In a sense they work like an amplifier, enabling us to use an attack without having to call and focus so much. We had a difficult time of it, the youma was able to absorb most of the attacks that we sent out towards it, and when we were trying to use the attack we had used the other day, a combination attack…it disarmed me.
While I was willing the youma to be able to not get the tambourine, energy flowed through me and caught the tambourine (not the youma) and enabled Luna to retrieve it for me. I was a little dumbstruck. Luna used an odd attack against the youma, which distracted it enough that we were able to use the attack, and defeat it.
Usagi had apparently been talking to Kuroki-san before the youma attacked, hopefully they were airing out their differences, and can see peace enough that there aren’t any strange things like there were today.
Kuroki-san seemed to be okay with Usagi-chan, she had been cut somehow, perhaps youma attack, and Usagi-chan bound her arm, and she said she was fine.
We can report that back to Artemis now, and it should be a relief for Venus-san.
