Makoto reached her apartment, still helping out Usagi with Ami's help. She unlocked the door with her free hand and lead her two friends inside.
"You two can make yourself at home." she said with a smile, carefully leading Usagi to the couch so she can sit. "Still up for some ice cream?"

Usagi looked around her place, as she sat down. She hasn't been here in such a while, but everything looks the same. She was happy that everyone is safe, yet something about this whole encounter has her curious. She didn't want to say anything, because all the senshis aren't here to answer her questions. But the big question is why is Kunzite watching her like a hawk?

Ami set her bag down and gazed around Makoto's apartment. She took could recall what it had looked like since her last visit and it was more or less the same. She however noticed the rather large tank at the back. "Makoto? Is that.. is that Motoki's turtle?"

Usagi turned her head to see the tank too. "Aw, it is Motoki's turtle. Is he letting you watch it?" she asked, as Ami check her leg out.

"Hm...?" she said, as she was reaching for the ice cream pot. She laughed.
"Oh, yeah! That's Motoki's turtle. He came begging me to take care of it for a while. He was in such a hurry he gave me the tank and completely forgot to tell me why he wanted me to. He only said something about it hating planes..." she said with a half smile. "That weirdo."
She came back with three bowls filled with ice cream that she gave to her two friends, keeping one for herself. She looked at Usagi.
"Are you really all right?" she asked, slightly worried.

Usagi gave her a smile and nodded.
"Hai! My leg is feeling much better now that I'm not on it." She glance at her friends and sighed. "But the issue is why Mamoru-chan is sending Kunzite-kun to watch me. He has never done that before."

Makoto slapped her forehead.
"Wow, I'm so absent minded I forgot to bring something to EAT the ice cream."
She went back to the kitchen but didn't take the table spoons just yet. She partly removed her jeans coat to take a quick look at her shoulder when Usagi asked about Kunzite. She put her jeans coat back, took the spoons and came back with them, giving one to both of them.
"I don't know... Maybe he's felt something strange, and he was just worried about you?" she said, sitting back next to her friend.

"Yeah I guess, but he is usually there when there is trouble. I wonder what happened that he didn't show up?" wondered Usagi, as she took a bite of her ice-cream.

Ami just shrugged and smushed her ice cream around, not really taking a bite yet. Her thoughts were on the same thing. Why had Kunzite been there? It didn't make sense to her anymore htan it did to the others. "Who knows guys..."

Makoto sighed. Everything was pretty confusing for everyone since a while ago. Now, a new enemy was lurking, they didn't even know how strong it really was, and they had no idea who or what it was. Any one of them could be in danger at any moment.But they can't just stick together twenty four hours a day, seven days a week...
"Yeah... I guess we'll have to find that out with everything else."

Ami nodded and scooped a pile of melted ice cream onto her spoon. "You're right, but no sense in letting it take us by suprise again." She said softly, glancing over to Usagi.

Usagi was still in a deep trance. She couldn't get the feeling to go away about Kunzite being there. Well she knows that he is loyal to Mamoru, yet why him. Why don't Nephrite, who kinda has some musical taste. Her ice cream on her spoon fell back to the bowl, as she kept thinking.
"Maybe Mamoru-chan thinks that I'm weak and can't handled myself," she thought. "Maybe it's time that I prove to my friends and my love that I'm strong. I have to trained harder, but I'm going to do it on my own. I do not want the senshis to help me. This is personal and I must to do. I have to find a place to do this, where they will never think of finding me. I should start looking when my leg is heal."

Makoto stared at her full bowl of half-melted ice cream she hadn't touched yet. She didn't even know why she took one for her; she wasn't even hungry for ice cream. She put the spoon in the bow and looked at Usagi who seemed quite thoughtful.
"Are you okay? You look like you're in a whole different world. How's it there?" she asked jokingly.

Usagi snapped out of her trance and looked at Makoto.
"Oh sorry, just a bit tired." She looked at her friend's shoulder and remember the hit she took.
"How is your shoulder, Makoto-chan?"

"Oh, that? Shouldn't be anything to worry about. Pardon the cliché, but... It's just a scratch." she said, moving it a little, trying not to show the pain it caused. She winked to her friend. "See?"
She smiled at Usagi. The girl somehow felt different for a few seconds, but she didn't know why. Maybe she really was just tired...
"You can take my bed tonight." she said with a smile. "You need some good rest, if you want that foot to heal."
