This is my second story set in the Saving The Heroes multiverse.
You should be familiar with it since I've posted the story on the FFML
already. Yeah the one with the jumping universes. I'll need some help
with it anyway.I'll be sending you scene 1.
Standard Disclaimer:
Trip and Trina are my characters all others are Naoko Takeuchi's
so please don't sue me.I also would like it if you use Trip and his
friends in your own stories but ask permission first since you need
to have their character templates first.
Part 1 - The Trouble With Roses
The Sailor Senshi were walking home
from another succesful monster bashing. As usual
they walked each other home. As usual a certain
green-haired woman in a businness suit was watching
them from across the street.
Makoto sudenly stopped in her tracks.
' Hey , any of you have the feeling like were being
watched.' she asked looking around at her surroundings.
' Yeah , now that you mention it I feel like someone's
watching us.' Minako responded as she also looked around
half-expecting another monster attack. Then the feeling
dissappeared , the green-haired woman along with it.
**********************************************
Trina was seated in her usual table at the cafe.
She was currently in a bad mood obviously as her face was
in a scowl. ' Stupid, stupid , stupid ! ' She silently swore at what
happened earlier. I must be getting old , she thought to herself.
I never ever made a mistake like that , my Mask falling off.
She scowled once again. She looked at her
watchonce again. Trip was late. He always was. Or was
he playing another game with her ? She shuddered
remembering the first time she met Trip. He had
scared the wits out of her when he did that little trick
of his. She wondered if Trip ever had days like this. People
around the HQ told her that Trip was one of the oldest
Investigators in the sector. Trina was the one of the few who
were nearly his age.Trina remembered the days before she
became an Investigator.The Silver Millenium was at it's height
when she was born.She remembered the parties , the grand
balls that she attended. The people she knew, the ..........
She was distracted from her reverie by the
woman seated across the room.She was a young lady
dressed in demure clothing, her short hair cut just above her
shoulders. She was currently eating chocolate cake and once
in a while her head would move as if she were conducting an
opera, once in a while looking at a gold pocket watch.
Trina looked at her. Something about her was
wrong. She looked at the woman longer , looking at the way she
ate , the way she would look at the time , the way her head moved.
Then she saw it. She quickly suppresed her anger and stood up.
She walked towards the woman and sat at the chair across her.
' Trip ! What in Selene's name possesed you
to come here dressed like a girl ?' Trina quietly said a tone
of anger evident in her voice.'Well, Trina-chan, I decided
to dress like a girl since you've been out of practice' the
very feminine looking Trip said teasingly. ' And beside's it's
been a long time since I dressed up as a woman.' she continued
taking another bite of cake.' By the way , how did you know it
was me ?' Trip-chan said raising one eyebrow questioningly.
At this Trina smiled. She always liked it
when she beat Trip at his game.' The chocolate was a dead
giveaway, only one person I know eats chocolate like you do,
Trip.' At this Trip winced knowing what she meant. His addiction
to chocolate had progressed to the point that he needed to eat
half his boodyweight in chocolate daily. Good thing immortality
means I don't get fat , thought Trip thankfully. Trina continued
with her explanation. 'The tune you conducted with headswings
is quite familiar to me and only someone as old or older than
I am could know about it. Finally , your nervous habit of looking
at your gold pocketwatch is quite obvious.' Trina smiled
once again quite happy at seeing through Trip's disguise.
Trip regained her composure after finishing
off his cake.' Well, Trina, how's your sister ?' she asked.
' Setsuna's just fine.' sighed Trina. Her little sister did'nt know
that she was alive, and she didn't want her to know she was alive
either. Her work was far too important.' So,Trip, what are you
doing here ? I sure as hell know this ain't a social call.'
' Trouble as in capital T. I asked ALICE to track it down.
the result was this reality flow.'
' And what may I ask is it ?'
At this Trip looked a bit uncomfortable.
' Well, Trina , you know I do my best to keep things from
getting out from my beat and let me assure you that I'll
do my best to keep it under control.'
'Trip , I'll ask again , what is it ?' Trina said, temper starting to simmer.
' Well , ah, eh..oh...iii.....uhhm...'
' Trip this better ain't be another Class M from your quadrant'
' No..no...no. Not a Class M. aaahhhh... Class Z to be exact'
Trip saw from Trina's face that she was about
to explode and probably send her flying through the wall.
' Cool , Trina , Cool, I've got everything under control.' he said hopefully
trying to diffuse Trina's temper.
' Cool , Trip ? Cool !?! You let an Unmaker get into my territory ! For
Selene's sake, the girls are'nt capable of handling that powerful a being !
Hell , even I can't take on an Unmaker directly !' Trina nearly shouted into
Trip's face.
' That's why I'm here Trina. But before we continue, let's go outside.I think
having you trying to kill me in a public place a very bad idea.' At this Trip rose
from his seat and started for the exit. Scowling at her back , Trina Meiou , elder
sister of Setsuna Meiou and Investigator , followed.
