Chapter 5: The Interrogation

(Later that day Hayaki’s office)

“Ten’ou-san you wanted to see me?” Michiru said as she walked into Hayaki’s office.

The older Ten’ou sat at his desk he looked up from his computer as Michiru walked in and gestured for her to sit down. “Yes I want to talk with you one on one. Get to know you a little better.”

“Of course Ten’ou-san,” Michiru said as she sat in front of the large oak desk. She had to admit she felt a little unease the large desk and office reminded her of the few times she had been in the principal’s office after Haruka had convinced her to skip class and they had been caught. “What do you want to know?”

“How long have you known Haruka?” Hayaki asked as he picked a glass up and drank from it.

“I met her about two and half years ago.” Michiru said a smile coming to her face.

“Where did you meet?” Hayaki asked.

“I went to a track meet to watch a friend of mine. After the race she introduced me to Haruka. I have to admit I was instantly attracted to Haruka.” Michiru said thinking about her first few meetings with Haruka and how she had run from her. Later Haruka had told her that she felt drawn to Michiru and not just because of the mission. “Later we both ended up attending Mugen Gakuen.”

Hayaki sat back leaning back in his chair pausing a before asking his next question. “Why are you with Haruka?”

“This question could mean two different things. Why am I dating Haruka or why am I dating another woman?” Michiru said not giving Hayaki a chance to say anything. “I am with Haruka because I love her. It is as simple as that. There is no one else I want to spend my life with. As for why I am dating another woman instead of a man, I believe love is unconditional it shouldn’t be limited to one gender. Everyone has a soul mate Haruka is mine. If I had ignored her just because she is a woman, I would have never found love.”

“Touching, until you mentioned who your father was I thought you might just be after her inheritance. I imagine yours was quite nice.” Hayaki said. He had one of his assistants research Michiru and found out that with her inheritance hadn’t been as large as he had thought and most of it had been spent prior to her become a famous violinist Michiru’s only source of income now was the money was from her concerts and whatever she could squeeze out of Haruka.

“I am able to make do.” Michiru said amazed that Haruka’s father would ask such a question. “I think the thing I am happiest that I inherited from my father was his love of music. Haruka is actually a skilled pianist did you know that?” Michiru said trying to sway the conversation.

“She better be after how much those lessons cost.” Hayaki said. There was a long silence between them Michiru not knowing what to say. It felt like an eternity before Hayaki spoke. “Have you been tested?”

“Tested?” Michiru asked hoping he wasn’t asking what she thought he was.

“Tested for HIV it has been proven that homosexuals are more likely to be infected with the disease.” Hayaki said as if he were commenting on the weather not asking questions about her personal life.

“That is none of your business!” Michiru said standing up unable to believe the man would ask a question like this after knowing her only two days and the tone he used made Michiru believe he wasn’t asking out of concern.

“None of m business? If you are fucking my daughter I think it is very much my business. Don’t even try to deny it I heard the two of you last night.” Hayaki said standing as well. “It makes me wonder what kind of girl would come into someone else’s home and have sex in their house.”

“I can’t believe this!” Michiru said throwing her hands in the air. “Seriously this is none your business it is a matter between Haruka and I but yes I have been tested as has Haruka. Still it is none of your business but Haruka is the only person I have slept with!” Michiru said.

“Touchy aren’t we? Tell me before your father died did you tell him what you were? Did you tell him how immoral you are? Did you tell him you were a dyke?” Hayaki asked but Michiru just turned her back to Hayaki walking out of the room letting the tears she had been holding back fall.

Hayaki watched the aqua haired girl run from his office crying surely Haruka would be in here soon. He didn’t care having already decided not to give her the ring. There was no way he would support this decadent behavior. He turned towards the window and looked out. Several minutes later he was right as Haruka stormed into the office grabbing Hayaki spinning him around and slamming him into the wall. “What the hell did you say to her?” Haruka said still holding him by the shirt.

Hayaki slapped Haruka’s hands away pushing her back into the chair Michiru had just been sitting in then fixed his shirt as he walked around in front of her. “We just had a little chat that’s all.”

“Bullshit! What the fuck did you say to her?” Haruka shouted rising to her feet again.

“Lower your voice I’ll not have you taking that tone with me!” Hayaki said. “If you want to know why don’t you go ask your little whore?”

Haruka’s face turned bright red and without realizing it she raised her hand hitting him in the mouth. “How dare you! How dare you say that about my Michiru! She is no such thing the whore is you!”

Haruka was still in shock realizing that she had just hit her father with all the fights they had never once had they ever ended in violence. She didn’t see it coming but felt it as Hayaki landed a punch to her face knocking her down and to the ground. “Get out! Get out of my home!” Hayaki shouted after wiping some blood off his lip. “And take your whore with you. You’re no daughter of mine!”

“No you stopped being my father the day my mother died.” Haruka said standing up and leaving.

(30 minutes later)

Haruka slammed the trunk of the car closed after the fight with her father she had gone and soothed Michiru then quickly packed. Michiru still hadn’t told her everything her father had said. Haruka wanted to know but wouldn’t press Michiru about it. Haruka knew she would tell her when the time was right. Michiru sat in thee car waiting as Haruka loaded the car. She walked around to the driver’s door but stopped upon hearing someone call her name. She turned and found Alison by the door walking towards her. She hadn’t seen her father since the fight but Alison had been with them apologizing for her father and making excuses for him, “Haruka please wait.” Alison said.

Haruka stood there allowing Alison to close the gap between them. “What?”

“Haruka I am sorry how Hayaki treated you and Michiru that was uncalled for. Your father can be a real jerk. Are you alright?” Alison asked reaching up and touching Haruka left eye it was already starting to bruise. “You really should put some ice on that.”

“I’m fine. If you think he’s a jerk why are you with him?” Haruka asked brushing Alison’s hand away. The woman had been nothing but nice to her the whole weekend but still Haruka had this feeling of dislike for the woman. She really couldn’t pinpoint what it was she just didn’t care for her maybe it was because she always saw Alison as trying to replace her mother.

“Haruka why are you with Michiru?” Alison asked.

“Because I love her,” Haruka said casting a glance to the car and her lover.

“I love your father Haruka it’s hard to explain but I do.” Alison said, “Hayaki may not think so but you and Michiru are meant to be together anyone that looks at the two of you should be able to see it. Which is why I think you should have this.” Alison reached into her pocket and pulled out a small velvet box handing it to Haruka. “Your father is going to be furious when he finds out but I don’t care. He may be a jerk sometimes but I’m not. You may not have his blessing but you have mine if that means anything to you.”

She opened the box looking down at a platinum ring with diamonds set into it. “Alison I don’t know what to say.”

“Promise me that you will treat her right and that you won’t ever stop loving her. “ Alison said.

“I swear it. Thank you Alison.” Haruka said closing the box and putting it in her pocket. She turned and walked back to the car sitting down and starting it.

“Ruka,” Michiru said reaching up touching Haruka’s cheek just below the bruise, then rested her head on Haruka’s shoulder as they drove out of the driveway.

“I’m alright Michi. I’m sorry that you had to go through that. You don’t deserve to be treated like that.” Haruka said putting her arm around her shoulder.

“Ruka I’m sorry you didn’t get what you wanted.” Michiru said.

“It’s alright Michi I have you and that is more important.” Haruka said squeezing Michiru’s shoulder.

(Outer Manor)

Haruka walked into the house carrying their bags with Michiru right behind her. At the top of the stairs Hotaru saw them and came running down leaping into Michiru’s arms almost knocking the aqua haired woman over. “Michiru-mama, Haruka-papa!” The young girl said planting a kiss on Michiru’s cheek and then on Haruka’s when she leaned her over. Haruka planted a kiss on the girl’s cheek and started for the stairs as Setsuna came in the other room wondering what Hotaru was so excited about.

“Haruka, Michiru you are home early. How was your father’s?” Setsuna asked as Haruka walked by her not saying anything. As she passed by Setsuna noticed Haruka’s eye. “That good?”

“Let’s just say I fully understand why Haruka hates her father.” Michiru said.

Setsuna nodded then said, “This really isn’t a good time then but we can’t wait. There is a new enemy.”

Michiru closed her eyes sensing the sea and feeling it thrash around. She hadn’t noticed it before not with everything that was going on. She opened her eyes and said, “I’ll get Haruka.” How could she have missed this was she too preoccupied with trying to impress Haruka’s father and trying to keep Haruka from killing him? It wasn’t like her to not be able to feel the sea’s tension.

Michiru came downstairs a few minutes later with Haruka and sat on the couch listening to Setsuna. “The Siren has escaped from Calabash.”

“The Siren? Calabash?” Michiru asked with all the villains they had faced this one didn’t sound at all familiar to her.

“A foe from the Silver Millennium who for the last several thousand years has been imprisoned at Calabash Penal Colony.” Setsuna said.

“Is it after the silver crystal?” Haruka asked as she held a ice pack to her eye hoping the swelling would go down though she knew there was nothing she could do about it tomorrow she would have a black eye.

“No she has other targets.” Setsuna said.

“Other targets? Does she mean to kill the prince and princess?” Michiru asked.

“No she is after the two of you.” Setsuna said.

“Us why would she be after us?” Michiru asked what could this Siren possibly want with her and Haruka.

“Because Michiru you were the one that sent her to Calabash.” Setsuna said.

“Me?” Michiru asked they had memories of their past lives but she couldn’t ever recall this.

“Long ago during the reign of Queen Serenity the Second the Siren terrorized the universe priding herself on the loves she had killed. The romance between Amara and Michelle was legendary. The Siren saw it as her greatest challenge she vowed to tear them apart. She believed that she would gain vast amounts of energy from them so at night she began creeping into Amara’s dreams and for weeks she had the most passionate, erotic and intense dreams. Then one day out of nowhere a strange woman appeared in court. Amara knew without a doubt it was the woman of her dreams. She found every excuse she could to see the woman. Slowly she distanced herself from Michelle and the Siren convinced her to run away, her magic had completely taken Amara over. Michelle realized that something wasn’t right she sensed foul play not wanting to believe Amara would throw their love away. She hunted the Siren down fought her but the Siren is immortal Michelle defeated her but couldn’t find her heart to kill her so she arranged for her to be transported to Calabash.” Setsuna said. “Where she was until several days ago, I just found out when the council sent a messenger to me.”

“You think she plans to come back to get her revenge?” Haruka asked discarding the ice pack on the table giving up on trying to do some damage control on her face.

“That or to finish what she started. I’ve already informed the Princess. You two should be on your guard. We don’t know when or even if she will attack.” Setsuna said.

(Later that night)

Haruka and Michiru lie in bed sleeping with the latter snuggling close to Haruka. Both were unaware of another presence in the room. A woman with long silvery hair walked across the room stopping at the foot of the bed glaring at Michiru as her hand moved to a dagger at her waist. It would be so easy to kill the woman that had caused her imprisonment as she lay here sleeping. Neptune had gotten weak in the past she was never able to get this close to the senshi without being in a guise. She paused then shook her head no she couldn’t just kill Neptune as she slept she would make Neptune suffer she would make Neptune know what loneliness was she would rip her heart into pieces and then Neptune would beg for her to kill her. She then walked towards Haruka’s side of the bed. She reached down and touched Haruka on the forehead, “Uranus show me your thoughts, your heart and your soul.” The woman said searching through Haruka’s mind. Several minutes later she smiled, “Yes this will do nicely, very nicely.”

The woman then turned into a mist and floated out the window as Michiru woke up. She looked around the room feeling like something was out of place and she was rather cold. She saw the open window and didn’t recall leaving it open. She climbed out of bed closed it then snuggled back into Haruka. “Mmm Michiru.” Haruka mumbled in her sleep. Michiru kissed her then drifted back to sleep.
