Hey guys! Thank you for all the kind, heartfelt comments, makes me feel so welcomed. SO glad to know you guys love reading the story as much as I like writing it, so thanks bunchies! :D
On with the next chapter: Okay so this is where the story gets really far-fetched, interesting and very different. From here on, it's going to be nothing like in the show, for obvious reasons as you'll see below when you read it. There's going to be supernatural powers, and other unrealistic things going on so if you guys are confused, it's natural. I'm just trying to follow the plot of the anime somewhat, so I totally understand if the story doesn't appeal to you. Not everyone's cup of tea perhaps. So I am absolutely ready with your tamatars, chappals, and whatnot you're probably ready to throw at me hahah. I can only hope that you enjoy the chapter.
A couple side notes: Wait For you Arakshi OS has been recently turned into a SS, and I'm currently working on the third chapter! It's in the works :D
And about PM's: I usually just PM all the ppl that are on my buddy list, so if you haven't sent me a buddy request, please do so you can get all the latest updates, or mention that you'd like me to add you in my buddy list, so I can do that for you. :) xx
Chapter 2: Justice is Served
'Be careful what you wish for' - They always say. But Sakshi was only now beginning to understand the essence of the phrase. Never in her wildest dreams had she ever imagined she would get to be a superhero, a guardian, a WARRIOR in disguise - a person who would protect the city from bad guys and ward off all things evil.
She never wanted this. Yes, she loved to play action hero video games. But actually BEING a hero? She was just a kid for cryin' out loud! A simple, cheerful college going girl who likes to play video games and hang out with her friends on a daily basis. And now, in the blink of a moment, some talking cat comes along and tells her she's some warrior with gadgets that have supernatural powers to fend off evil?
You gotta be kidding me. Like hellooo? This is real life! Not some superhero movie! She just wanted to be a normal teenager for heavens' sake.
She screamed at the top of her lungs as the inhumane creature in front of her extended her long hand as if it was a fast-speeding crane, its sharp claws ready to gnaw at her fair, round, and flawless face. She closed her eyes shut, and held her jaw tight, bracing herself for the impact.
But as she soon came to realize, the sharp impact never came. Instead, she heard the sound of the claws clash with an unknown object, and abruptly opened her eyes in fear. She opened her eyes wide to see a red rose, its petals intact, standing firmly, but slightly slanted, on its green, flourished stem on the tile ground right by her feet.
Her eyes then wandered to a man with tall, broad shoulders and a quite attractive physique, wearing a tuxedo and matching mask on his face, standing on a window ledge in the building she was being attacked in.
Who's that? Well, whoever he is, he came just in the nick of time, she mentally conversed with herself. Her thoughts jumping around in her brain were momentarily interrupted by the voice of the masked stranger.
"Apne dil mein jhaak kar dekho aur warrior ko apne andar dhoondho Sailor Mrunal!" He called out to her, trying to motivate her to keep her fighting spirit and eradicate this monster to protect their city.
"But I don't WANT to be a warrior!!!!" She retaliated. She was sick and tired - fed up - of this whole hero thing. She just wanted to go home. Like any other overwhelmed girl, she started her incessant crying and began to bawl her eyes out.
Lara, her sidekick who was a talking cat, began to worry upon her childish state. However, she was in for a shock when her crying actually caused a mini-earthquake to erupt from the ground, and all of the humans that the evil creature had turned into a zombie-like state, fell to the ground like flies swatted by a trap. The evil creature began to moan and cover her ears in an effort to stop the horrific wailing from damaging her ears. "Oh will you stop that incessant crying already!!"
Lara saw that the creature was momentarily distracted, and knew that this was a great opportunity to finish her off. Instantly, and without a second to waste, she told Sakshi to use her tiara and destroy the creature.
Initially, she was hesitant. What could her tiara do? What powers did it have? This was all still so new to her. But being pressed by Lara again and again caused her to change her mind. Worth a shot. What choice do I have?
Here goes nothing, she thought, as she took the tiara off her forehead and aimed it at the female creature in the sky. She swung and let it go with momentum, and the tiara flew spot on towards the creature, turning into just mere ashes of dust on the ground.
Whoa. I did that? With cautious steps, her red, tall combat heels clicked with the tiled floor as she walked up to the creature's remains of dust assembled into a pyramid. She watched as the pyramid of dust disseminated and vanished from air. Who knew, she marveled at this new revelation of the existence of sorcery and magic. Her thoughts were once again interrupted by the masked man peering at her from above.
"You have done well, Sailor Mrunal. Ab Mayra ki maa aur baaki sab aurtein azaad hain. And it's all thanks to you. Leken jang baaki hai. Others will test you, honsla rakho. Do not be afraid," he told her in that charming voice of his.
She gazed at him as he spoke, in awe. As soon as he finished his speech, he lifted his cape above his shoulders and vanished into the dark of the night. "Mein aapke saath hoon," he called out to her as he left.
She sighed in a dreamy-like state as he vanished. Kya khoob dikhta hai, her heart began to flutter at the thought of him, and her eyes glistened with love. Love for a man she just met, she knew it was so clich and unrealistic, but she couldn't help it.
One thing's for sure - she would remember this night forever.
