Title: Zoycite's Story Part: Six Rating: PG ====================================================================== Hello everyone! Well, here's part six! I was in Allentown, Pa for the ITS (International Thespian Society) conference two weeks ago, and had a hectic week, so I think this one's a little shorter than usual. Sorry! Hey! Don't be shy, e-mail me! My address is Zoycite111@hotmail.com. I also have IM now. My s/n is zoycite111. If you want to chat, IM me too! Enjoy! ^_^ ====================================================================== Disclaimer: I do not own Zoycite or any other character in Sailor Moon. This story is from my own imagination and is my own work. However, I would like to own Malachite...or Prince Diamond... ====================================================================== Last time: Queen Beryl assembles all the generals into the throne room. There, Jedite explains why he has failed again. However, Queen Beryl doesn't care and executed him with a power surge. Nephrite is now the general in command. ====================================================================== Zoycite could feel her powers returning to her as Malachite worked with her. She was better at teleporting, and was learning how to travel to other places, besides her room and the throne room. Zoycite was also learning to control her ice crystal and cherry blossom attacks. After Jedite was killed, Zoycite returned to her room, shocked with what she had just witnessed. ~Zoycite: Well, now I know that I don't want to fail Queen Beryl too many times...But it's not my style to hurt people. I don't know what to do when I become in charge. I need to convince Malachite to leave this horrible place!~ Upon returning to her room, a door inside her quarters was open. ~Zoycite: Hmmm. I've never noticed this before. I wonder where it goes...~ When Zoycite opened the door, she found a balcony. After stepping out onto it, she looked down and gasped. From her room, she had a great view of the earth. As she stared down at the earth, a lone tear fell from her eye. "Don't cry Zoycite." said Malachite as he reached up to dry her tear, "if Queen Beryl sees you, she may think you weak." "Malachite! You startled me! I didn't hear you come in." exclaimed Zoycite. "Sorry. I didn't mean to frighten you. Why were you crying?"asked Malachite. "Oh, just homesick, I guess. I've been here a little over a year, but I miss my old live." said Zoycite, "I miss my cherry blossom tree in teh park. It always looked so pretty at this time of the year... Don't get me wrong, I like my life here, but I miss the peacefullnes. Someday, I'd like to show it to you." "well, maybe some--"replied Malachite as he was inturrupted by Nephrite's arrival. ~Malachite: What's he doing here?~ "Hello? Zoycite? Are you here?" called Nephrite, "I need someone to talk to. I figured I could talk to you." "Malachite, wait here while I find out what's wrong." Zoycite said to Malachite quietly. "Yes, I'm here, and, yes, you can talk to me." answered Zoycite as she left the balcony, drying her tears. "You look as if you've been crying. Are you okay?" asked Nephrite. "She's fine." Malachite said, answering for Zoycite. "Oh, I didn't know you were here." Nephrite said testily. "Would you two knock it off? Geeze! Now, what did you want to talk about?" asked Zoycite. "I'm so upset! Ican't believe Queen Beryl did that to Jedite! How could she? He was like a brother to me." said Nephrite, as the tears streamed down his face. "Why am I crying?" "Nephrite, you're crying because you're sad." said Zoycite. "Zoycite, what is this thing you call 'saddness'?" asked Nephrite. "Whell, It's a human emotion we feel when we are unhappy." explained Zoycite. "We have many different emotions. Saddness, happiness,...and love." As Zoycite said the word love, she looked directly at Malachite. ~Malachite: Why did Zoycite look at me when she said the word love? Is she trying to tell me something? Is this 'love' what I feel for her?~ "Wait a second. Do you even remember your lives before the Negaverse came for you?" asked Zoycite. "I...uh...hafta go. I need to...er...plan my next move. Thanks for your help Zoycite. Bye." said Nephrite quickly as he left Zoycite's room. "What's wrong with him? asked Zoycite. "Is it something I said?" "It's a long story. Are you getting better at controlling your ice crystal attack?" asked Malachite, trying desperately to change the subject. "Yss I am, and don't try to change the subject! I have the time. Tell me why Nephrite got all upset." said Zoycite angrily. "I want to know why the death of Jedite was so hard on Nephrite. Personally, I don't think he was that good of a general. Tell me what's wrong. I don't want to offend Nephrite again! Tell me dammit!" Malachite only shook his head in response. This only made Zoycite even angrier. "Fine! Don't tell me. Even though this is my room, and I shouldn't have to leave, I'm leaving anyways. Ciao." replied Zoycite in a cloud of cherry blossom petals. "Zoycite! Don't leave!" Malachite called after Zoycite. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you." ~Malachite: Where'd she go? I have to find her!~ Malachite left Zoycite's room and began his hunt for Zoycite. ====================================================================== Well, that's it for the sixth installment of Zoycite's story. Do I sense trouble in paradise? In case you're confused, Malachite is in love with Zoycite, he just doesn't know it. ^_~ Anyways, if all goes according to plan, part seven should be out next week.
