     1.9 +This is a Sekkushiaru Roman, which means it is a romance story that contains
    1.10 +a lot of adult themes. This is for mature readers only. We don't own any of 
    1.11 +the characters in this, Toei, Naoko Takeuchi and assorted other people do. 
    1.12 +This is a Christmas themed story. Hotaru & ChibiUsa are both 15 and Kakyuu
    1.13 +& the Starlights are 19. Every space between paragraphs is a scene change.
    1.14 +Usagi and Mamoru are married and share an appartment, so ChibiUsa stays 
    1.15 +with Usagi's parents and Shingo. A lot of our story ideas come from an
    1.16 +IRL Sailormoon roleplaying game we play, and some of the ideas in this 
    1.17 +fic also come from that. One day we may write down the basics of what goes 
    1.18 +on in our role-playing game, but only if people are interested. If you have 
    1.19 +any ideas about who we should get Seiya and Taiki with, we'd really like 
    1.20 +to hear from you. We love feedback, so please e-mail us at: 
    1.21 +amazonessduo@hotmail.com
    1.22 +We love to hear from people and what they thought of our stories or what
    1.23 +stories they'd like us to write.  Thanks. ^-^

    1.30 +
    1.31 +	The city of Tokyo was blanketed in a layer of snow. All was calm 
    1.32 +and peaceful...
    1.33 +	"Come on, Taiki. I don't have all day," Yaten complained as Taiki
    1.34 +ignored him and continued to look around the book store.
    1.35 +	"It's not Taiki's fault you didn't get Kakyuu a Christmas present
    1.36 +yet," said Seiya.
    1.37 +	"I just kept putting it off. You guys know how much I hate Christmas
    1.38 +shopping," said Yaten.
    1.39 +	"That doesn't matter. You should have gotten this done a while back
    1.40 +so you wouldn't have to worry about it now," Taiki spoke up from one of the
    1.41 +books she was looking at.
    1.42 +	"Well, thanks for going with me, but could we look at some other 
    1.43 +stores? This place sucks," said Yaten. Taiki looked up from her books and 
    1.44 +glared at her. "I mean, I can't find a gift for Kakyuu here."
    1.45 +	"Yeah, we should probably be going if Yaten's going to get anything 
    1.46 +in time," said Seiya.
    1.47 +	"Don't worry. I'll be done in a couple minutes," said Taiki. Yaten
    1.48 +and Seiya looked at each other. When Taiki was in a bookstore it could be 
    1.49 +days before they saw daylight again.
    1.50 +	Several minutes later, Taiki turned around to find that Seiya and 
    1.51 +Yaten were gone. 'Oh well,' Taiki thought, 'that gives me more time to find-
    1.52 +the books I want.' Taiki turned back around and continued to look through 
    1.53 +the shelves of books.
    1.54 +
    1.55 +	ChibiUsa sat alone in the Tsukino household. She looked outside at 
    1.56 +the snow as the weather seemed to get worse. She sighed. Earlier, she had 
    1.57 +found out that Usagi's parents, Kenji & Ikuko, and her brother Shingo were
    1.58 +stuck because of the snow, so they had to stay at a friend of the family's
    1.59 +house. They had been going to a dinner part and had asked ChibiUsa if she
    1.60 +wanted to go, but she declined. Usagi and Mamoru had called to see if she
    1.61 +was okay a short while ago. Mamoru had offered to go get her, but it would
    1.62 +have been dangerous in the blizzard.
    1.63 +	ChibiUsa remembered the Christmases she had spent in Crystal Tokyo 
    1.64 +with her family. She remembered getting a tree with her parents, having
    1.65 +big dinners with the other Senshi, looking at all the decorations people 
    1.66 +would put up around the Crystal Palace... She sighed again. She missed 
    1.67 +those times. She had tried to call Hotaru several times, but a little 
    1.68 +while after Usagi & Mamoru called the phone lines had gone out. Just to
    1.69 +hear her sweet voice would make ChibiUsa feel better and less homesick.
    1.70 +	ChibiUsa held the present she had gotten for Hotaru. She had wanted
    1.71 +to give it to her that day, but now she'd have to wait until it stopped
    1.72 +snowing, if it did at all. 'I hate this,' thought ChibiUsa. 'It's Christmas
    1.73 +Eve and I can't spend it with my loved ones. I can't spend it with my mom
    1.74 +and dad since they're in the future. Usagi's family can't get here. And 
    1.75 +Hotaru's spending Christmas with Haruka, Michiru, and Setsuna. I can't 
    1.76 +even go see her because of the snow.' ChibiUsa sat closer to the fire. She
    1.77 +was wearing a shirt and some sweatpants to keep warm, but it didn't help 
    1.78 +much with how cold it was. She had started a fire earlier to keep warm, 
    1.79 +and it seemed to be heating up the room rather well. 
    1.80 +	She started to think about Hotaru, as she often did when she 
    1.81 +couldn't be with her. She thought about how Hotaru's dark hair fell to her
    1.82 +shoulders. How Hotaru's purple eyes would stare deep into her own. She 
    1.83 +could spend hours looking into Hotaru's eyes. How Hotaru's soft lips felt
    1.84 +against her own. ChibiUsa blushed. She remembered how they had almost been 
    1.85 +caught kissing right before class. ChibiUsa smiled to herself at the memory. 
    1.86 +"I wish she was here," said ChibiUsa aloud as she thought of the dark 
    1.87 +haired girl.
    1.88 +
    1.89 +	Seiya and Yaten walked along inside the mall. "So do you have any 
    1.90 +idea what you want to get Kakyuu?" asked Seiya.
    1.91 +	"I have no clue. I just want to get her something she'll like," 
    1.92 +said Yaten.
    1.93 +	Seiya shrugged. "Good luck. I don't really think she'll mind no 
    1.94 +matter what you get her. She has you and that's what keeps her happy."
    1.95 +	Yaten smiled. "Thanks, Seiya. You're right. I still want to get
    1.96 +her something special, though."
    1.97 +	The two walked along in relative silence for a while. Finally 
    1.98 +Yaten spoke up. "Lets go in here." Yaten indicated a store. Its sign read 
    1.99 +that it had unique merchandise.
   1.100 +	"What's 'unique merchandise'? asked Seiya.
   1.101 +	"Let's find out. Maybe I can find something for Kakyuu here," 
   1.102 +Yaten said as she walked into the store.
   1.103 +	Yaten and Seiya froze as they looked at the people in the store.
   1.104 +They were all dressed up in costumes of the senshi. And they were all men.
   1.105 +Seiya and Yaten looked along the line of costumed senshi. Some had beards, 
   1.106 +or goatees, or receding hairlines. Seiya and Yaten's gaze stopped as they 
   1.107 +saw the Starlights. Yaten and Seiya ran screaming from the store.
   1.108 +
   1.109 +	ChibiUsa blinked several times. She must have fallen asleep by the 
   1.110 +fire. She stretched a bit as she sat up. She heard a knock at the door. 
   1.111 +'That must be what woke me up,' thought ChibiUsa. She got up and walked 
   1.112 +towards the door. 'Who could it be?' she thought. She stood on her tiptoes
   1.113 +and looked out the peephole. Hotaru was standing outside. ChibiUsa quickly 
   1.114 +unlocked the door. 
   1.115 +	"Hotaru, what are you doing here? You look frozen. How did you get 
   1.116 +here? You didn't walk all the way did you? Do the others know you're 
   1.117 +here?" asked ChibiUsa. Hotaru just smiled slightly and let ChibiUsa lead
   1.118 +her inside. 
   1.119 +	"I wanted to see you," she said simply.
   1.120 +	"Oh, Hotaru. You shouldn't have come all this way through the snow.
   1.121 +It's dangerous," said ChibiUsa.
   1.122 +	"Are you happy to see me?" Hotaru leaned towards ChibiUsa and smiled
   1.123 +again. ChibiUsa kissed her. She felt ChibiUsa's warm lips against her own 
   1.124 +cold ones. 'It was worth it. I love being with her. I should have gone 
   1.125 +earlier,' she thought as ChibiUsa's tongue entered her mouth. Both girls 
   1.126 +finally pulled away from lack of breath. 
   1.127 +	"Thank you, Hotaru. I was feeling so lonely all by myself. And 
   1.128 +homesick. I wanted to see you so badly," said ChibiUsa.
   1.129 +	Hotaru brushed some of ChibiUsa's hair away from her eyes. "I missed
   1.130 +you, too."
   1.131 +	"You're shivering," said ChibiUsa. "You must be freezing. Let me 
   1.132 +help you." ChibiUsa helped Hotaru out of her clothes and then went off to 
   1.133 +get a blanket. Hotaru sat by the fire and waited for ChibiUsa. 'She really
   1.134 +worries about me. It feels so good to have someone like that. ChibiUsa's not 
   1.135 +even born yet, but she's my other half,' Hotaru thought. ChibiUsa came back 
   1.136 +and put the blanket around her. 
   1.137 +	"I'm going to make some hot cocoa. I'll be back in just a minute," 
   1.138 +said ChibiUsa.
   1.139 +	"Okay. But you better hurry. I may not be here when you get back,"
   1.140 +Hotaru said mischeivously. ChibiUsa smiled at her and walked off to make 
   1.141 +the cocoa. 'It's nice to know that someone cares for you like she does. 
   1.142 +She's really cute when she worries about me, too. I have a lot of fun when
   1.143 +I'm around her. It's like she brings out a part of me that no one else sees
   1.144 +but her,' thought Hotaru.
   1.145 +	
   1.146 +	"I'm telling you, Taiki. They looked like bikers," said Yaten.
   1.147 +	"They looked like the Hell's Angels in senshi fuku," agreed Seiya.
   1.148 +	"It's ironic, though, isn't it? We dress up like men as normal 
   1.149 +people," said Taiki.
   1.150 +	"Not normal people. We're the Three Lights, remember?" answered 
   1.151 +Seiya.
   1.152 +	"That's besides the point. We dress up like men, though as senshi 
   1.153 +you can see we're women, and they dress up like women as senshi," said 
   1.154 +Taiki.
   1.155 +	"Though as biker trash you can see that they're men. That doesn't
   1.156 +really matter, Taiki. It was still a scary sight," said Yaten.
   1.157 +	They walked along silently for a little while. 
   1.158 +	"Ironic, nonetheless," said Taiki.	
   1.159 +
   1.160 +	ChibiUsa walked back to Hotaru holding a mug of hot cocoa. She 
   1.161 +handed it to Hotaru who accepted it gratefully. ChibiUsa sat down by her.
   1.162 +She hugged her knees to her chest. ChibiUsa turned to her and smiled. "I'm 
   1.163 +really glad you're here, Hotaru."
   1.164 +	"I'm glad I'm here, too. Thanks for the cocoa, Odango-chan," Hotaru 
   1.165 +said, pulling the blanket tighter around herself. 
   1.166 +	"That's okay. I hope you like it. I know I can't cook very well," 
   1.167 +She was interrupted by a giggle from Hotaru, "but I tried, anyway."
   1.168 +	"Odango-chan, its easy to make cocoa. You don't have to do too much.
   1.169 +How could you mess that up?" Hotaru asked.
   1.170 +	"Oh, I'd find some way. That's the last thing I need. You get here 
   1.171 +and then I poison you with bad hot cocoa," said ChibiUsa.
   1.172 +	Hotaru took a sip. "It's pretty good," she said. She felt the warmth
   1.173 +go through her body as she drank a little more. She noticed that it wasn't 
   1.174 +the cocoa that was warming her up, though. It was ChibiUsa's hands on her 
   1.175 +shoulders, trying to rub some warmth back into her cold body. Hotaru purred
   1.176 +as she felt ChibiUsa's breath against the back of her neck. 
   1.177 +	"So how are Michiru, Haruka, and Setsuna?" asked ChibiUsa. One of 
   1.178 +her hands started to go lower, sending a tingle up Hotaru's spine.
   1.179 +	"They're doing pretty well. They were doing a lot of cooking before 
   1.180 +I left. Haruka accidently set something on fire and they kicked her out of 
   1.181 +the kitchen," Hotaru said.
   1.182 +	"Haruka's almost as bad as I am when it comes to cooking," said 
   1.183 +ChibiUsa.
   1.184 +	"No, she's worse. Michiru-mama tries to help her, but something 
   1.185 +always goes wrong when Haruka-papa's cooking. She really tries to help, 
   1.186 +too," said Hotaru. She felt ChibiUsa's hands rubbing her back. 'I'm in 
   1.187 +heaven right now,'she thought to herself. The blanket slid past her 
   1.188 +shoulders. ChibiUsa felt a thrill race through her as she smelt the 
   1.189 +fragrant scent of Hotaru's hair. 
   1.190 +	"There. Are you feeling warmer now, Hotaru?" asked ChibiUsa. Hotaru
   1.191 +turned around so she was facing ChibiUsa. Hotaru's arms encircled ChibiUsa.
   1.192 +Her breasts pressed up agianst ChibiUsa's through her shirt. 
   1.193 +	"ChibiUsa, you warmed my life more than you'll ever know," Hotaru 
   1.194 +said. ChibiUsa blushed as she looked into Hotaru's eyes, as she had thought
   1.195 +about doing earlier. 
   1.196 +
   1.197 +	"I can't find anything," complained Yaten.
   1.198 +	"We've been around the mall and back twice now," said Taiki. "You'd 
   1.199 +think that you could find something by now."
   1.200 +	"I guess we better head home," said Yaten, defeated.
   1.201 +	"In that case, I'm going back to get one last book. I'll see you two
   1.202 +in a minute," Taiki walked off.
   1.203 +	Yaten sat near a fountain, angry at herself for not finding anything.
   1.204 +Seiya sat down by her. After a couple minutes of contemplation, Seiya turned
   1.205 +towards Yaten. 
   1.206 +	"I know what you can give Kakyuu," said Seiya.
   1.207 +	"What?" asked Yaten.
   1.208 +	Seiya pulled something out of her pocket. She held it in front of 
   1.209 +Yaten. It was a small fire red jewel with a ring of gold around it. 
   1.210 +	"What is it?" asked Yaten as she looked at it.
   1.211 +	"It's a piece of jewelry from Kinmoku. I found it right before we 
   1.212 +went to earth. I was going to give it to Kakyuu when I told her how I really
   1.213 +felt about her. But you won her heart. I want you to give this to Kakyuu,"
   1.214 +Seiya handed it to Yaten. 'First I lost Usagi, and now Kakyuu,' thought 
   1.215 +Seiya. 'I have really bad luck with women.'
   1.216 +	"Thanks, Seiya," said Yaten in a low voice as she looked at it. 
   1.217 +"She'll love it, especially since it's from Kinmoku."
   1.218 +	"Hey, don't worry about it. As long as she has you, she'll be happy. 
   1.219 +As long as she's happy, I'm fine," said Seiya. "Now let's go get a store to 
   1.220 +wrap it."
   1.221 +
   1.222 +	Hotaru & ChibiUsa held each other, the blanket forgotten on the 
   1.223 +floor. Hotaru leaned her head on ChibiUsa's chest. "I wish you'd let me 
   1.224 +tell everyone about us," said Hotaru.
   1.225 +	"I know, but we're both pretty young. People will think we're doing 
   1.226 +something stupid," said ChibiUsa
   1.227 +	"I don't care what they think about us. I just want everyone to know
   1.228 +that you're my Odango-chan," replied Hotaru. "As it is, all the boys see you
   1.229 +as a pretty single girl and they try to get you. I want them to know that 
   1.230 +you already have a girlfirend."
   1.231 +	ChibiUsa laughed. "Maybe I should just wear an "I'm gay with Hotaru"
   1.232 +sticker on my blouse."
   1.233 +	"Maybe. Then I wouldn't have to worry about boys talking to you," 
   1.234 +said Hotaru as she kissed ChibiUsa lightly.
   1.235 +	"Then you'd only have to worry about the girls chasing after me,"
   1.236 +said ChibiUsa.
   1.237 +	"Why do I doubt that? Anyway, that's why the sticker would say 
   1.238 +'with Hotaru'" said Hotaru with a smile.
   1.239 +	"Oh yeah? Momo-chan's had her eye on me for a while," ChibiUsa said.
   1.240 +	"I'm sure all the other girls in the school do. But they can't have 
   1.241 +you. I wouldn't let them," Hotaru said as their lips brushed again. 
   1.242 +	ChibiUsa brushed some hair out of Hotaru's eyes. "I love you," she 
   1.243 +said simply, looking deep into those purple eyes that drew her in.
   1.244 +
   1.245 +	Taiki had caught up with Yaten and Seiya after they had gotten 
   1.246 +Kakyuu's gift wrapped. 
   1.247 +	"Are we ready to go?" asked Seiya.
   1.248 +	"I suppose we are," answered Taiki. They pushed open the mall doors 
   1.249 +and looked out at the falling snow outside.
   1.250 +	"We'll never be able to get back," said Seiya.
   1.251 +	"Well, we'll have to try anyway," said Yaten determinedly. She 
   1.252 +started walking out of the mall, bracing herself against the still fallng
   1.253 +snow. "Are you two coming or not?"
   1.254 +	Taiki and Seiya exchanged glances before heading outside. They 
   1.255 +walked along for a while, but they started to have trouble finding where
   1.256 +they were going. They saw a silhoutte of a man in front of them. He waved.
   1.257 +	"Follow me!" he said as he started off.
   1.258 +	"What do we do?" asked Seiya.
   1.259 +	"We follow him. What else can we do." replied Taiki.
   1.260 +	"Who's stupid idea was it to head out here anyway?" asked Yaten. 
   1.261 +Taiki and Seiya both slapped her upside the head. Suddenly, the snow was 
   1.262 +blocked a bit. They were in an alleyway with a bunch of ragged men 
   1.263 +surrounding a fire barrel.
   1.264 +	"Hi. I'm Hobo Willie. It's nice to meet you," The man who had helped 
   1.265 +them stuck out his hand wich was covered in a ripped white glove. Taiki took
   1.266 +his hand and shook it. 
   1.267 +	"It's good to meet you too, sir. Thanks for helping us," Taiki said.
   1.268 +	"Don't worry about it. Are you fancy lads hungry? We're cooking...."
   1.269 +He looked at what the other bums and hobos were cooking over the fire. "I 
   1.270 +don't know what the hell we're cooking, but it is food. I think."
   1.271 +	"No! I'm in hell with a bunch of hobo's and I won't be with my 
   1.272 +Kakyuu for christmas!" said an exasperated Yaten.
   1.273 +	"You forgot bums, fancy lad," Hobo Willie added helpfully.
   1.274 +
   1.275 +	Hotaru & ChibiUsa's hands started to roam each other's bodies. 
   1.276 +ChibiUsa felt Hotaru's hands cup her breasts. She felt her nipples 
   1.277 +harden as Hotaru pinched them lightly through the cloth of her shirt. 
   1.278 +ChibiUsa slid out of the sweatpants she was wearing as Hotaru pulled
   1.279 +ChibiUsa's shirt off. ChibiUsa sat on her knees as she and Hotaru looked
   1.280 +at each other. She placed her hands on Hotaru's shoulders and gently 
   1.281 +pushed her to the floor. 
   1.282 +	"Odango-chan, you are so beautiful," said Hotaru as she traced the 
   1.283 +curves of ChibiUsa's body. ChibiUsa blushed. She crawled over towards 
   1.284 +Hotaru. One hand moved between Hotaru's legs. ChibiUsa crawled up further 
   1.285 +so her face was inches away from Hotaru's. Hotaru looked at ChibiUsa's 
   1.286 +flushed cheeks. 'She's still a bit embarrassed about our making love' 
   1.287 +Hotaru thought. 'She's not used to being close to someone like we are. I'm
   1.288 +not either, but I cherish every moment I have with her. I want to make 
   1.289 +sure she's not embarrassed around me'. Hotaru leaned her head closer to 
   1.290 +ChibiUsa as her hands went to ChibiUsa's chest. Her mouth met ChibiUsa's. 
   1.291 +ChibiUsa almost pulled away at the suddenness of it, but
   1.292 +she pushed back into the kiss, letting Hotaru's tongue enter her mouth. 'I 
   1.293 +am so lucky to have her' thought ChibiUsa. 'She always makes me feel safe.' 
   1.294 +Hotaru felt ChibiUsa's fingers slide into her. Hotaru continued to kiss 
   1.295 +ChibiUsa as she felt her fingers slide further into her. They pulled away 
   1.296 +from the kiss breathlessly.
   1.297 +	Hotaru's hand ran across ChibiUsa's stomach and through her pink 
   1.298 +pubic hair. ChibiUsa loved the way Hotaru's body felt against hers. ChibiUsa 
   1.299 +spread her legs. ChibiUsa moaned as Hotaru's fingers started to stroke her
   1.300 +pearl. Hotaru started kissing along ChibiUsa's neck. She felt herself 
   1.301 +near orgasm as she felt one of ChibiUsa's hands exploring the curves of her
   1.302 +body. Both girls moaned the others name as they reached orgasm together. 
   1.303 +They laid on the floor for a while panting. ChibiUsa kissed Hotaru's damp
   1.304 +forehead. ChibiUsa got off of Hotaru and grabbed the blanket. Hotaru pulled 
   1.305 +ChibiUsa close as ChibiUsa brought the blanket around them. 
   1.306 +
   1.307 +	Taiki looked at the hobos and bums as they threw their Christmas eve 
   1.308 +party. "They have nothing, yet they still enjoy Christmas."
   1.309 +	"And they invite us to stay for the party," said Seiya.
   1.310 +	Hobo Willie sat down by Yaten. "Are you okay, fancy lad? You don't 
   1.311 +look too happy. Are you hungry?" he asked.
   1.312 +	"Look, thanks for everything, but it's Christmas Eve and the only 
   1.313 +thing I want is to be back with my Kakyuu," said Yaten.
   1.314 +	Hobo Willie stared off into space for several minutes. Yaten looked
   1.315 +at him quizically. She waved her hand in his line of vision. 
   1.316 +	"Hmm, wha.. Oh, yeah. I lost track of what I was thinking about. Are 
   1.317 +you hungry?" he asked again. 
   1.318 +	Yaten sweatdropped. "No, I'm not. I just want to get home, somehow," 
   1.319 +Yaten said.
   1.320 +	Hobo Willie looked at Yaten for a moment, then nodded his head. 
   1.321 +"That kinda sucks, doesn't it. I'd like to get home, too, but my cardboard
   1.322 +box is across town."
   1.323 +	"Do you have any ideas on how I could get home?" Yaten asked 
   1.324 +desperately.
   1.325 +	"Oh, yeah. I have some of those," Hobo Willie said.
   1.326 +	Yaten sweatdropped again. "Could you tell me them?" she asked.
   1.327 +	"Now that's a good idea right there," He answered. He got up and 
   1.328 +walked towards the fire barrel. 
   1.329 +	'Well there goes the chance of getting help. I knew I shouldn't put 
   1.330 +my hope in some bum,' she thought.
   1.331 +	"Okay everybody. Listen up," Hobo Willie said. "It's Christmas Eve
   1.332 +and someone's very unhappy. If there's anything we can do to help someone's
   1.333 +Christmas, we should. I say we help these fancy lads get home!" Many hobos
   1.334 +and bums started yelling agreement. Yaten looked up as she heard that. These
   1.335 +people had nothing, yet they wanted to help.
   1.336 +	"We should get going now if you want to get home in time," Hobo 
   1.337 +Willie said.
   1.338 +	"Thanks," said Yaten.
   1.339 +	"Yeah," agreed Seiya. 
   1.340 +	"That's very kind of you," said Taiki.
   1.341 +	"Think nothing of it," Hobo Willie said. "Now all we've got to do is
   1.342 +find some reindeer."
   1.343 +	Yaten, Seiya, and Taiki sweatdropped.
   1.344 +
   1.345 +	"Odango-chan?" asked Hotaru.
   1.346 +	"Yeah, Hotaru?" ChibiUsa looked at the other girl.
   1.347 +	"Guess," said Hotaru.
   1.348 +	"What?" asked ChibiUsa.
   1.349 +	"I love you," said Hotaru.
   1.350 +	They kissed before ChibiUsa got up. "Just a minute. I wanted to give 
   1.351 +you something," she said.
   1.352 +	Hotaru walked over to her clothes. She pulled her present to ChibiUsa
   1.353 +out of her jacket. She turned around to see ChibiUsa walking towards her. 
   1.354 +ChibiUsa sat down by her. 
   1.355 +	"This is for you. Merry Christmas, Hotaru," said ChibiUsa as she handed
   1.356 +Hotaru her gift.
   1.357 +	"Merry Christmas, ChibiUsa," Hotaru said as she exchanged gifts with her
   1.358 +Odango-chan.
   1.359 +	"What is it?" asked ChibiUsa. 
   1.360 +	"Open it," Hotaru said.
   1.361 +	"No, I want you to open your present first," ChibiUsa said.
   1.362 +	"Okay. We'll open it at the same time," said Hotaru.
   1.363 +	ChibiUsa and Hotaru started to unwrap their gifts. 
   1.364 +	"Oh, Hotaru, it's beautiful," said ChibiUsa. She looked at the locket 
   1.365 +Hotaru had gotten her. She opened it and saw a picture of herself with Hotaru.
   1.366 +	"Thank you, ChibiUsa," Hotaru said as she looked at her gift. It was a 
   1.367 +small porcelain doll, with shoulder length dark purple hair. It was just like 
   1.368 +a doll she had when she was growing up. 
   1.369 +	"I remembered that you had a doll like that from a little while after we 
   1.370 +became friends. You told me all about it and how it was one of the only things 
   1.371 +you had of your mom's. Then it got possessed by a Daimon and destroyed by the 
   1.372 +outer senshi. You looked so sad. I found this a while ago and I had to get it
   1.373 +for you," said ChibiUsa. She and Hotaru met in a warm embrace.
   1.374 +
   1.375 +	Yaten, Seiya, and Taiki walked along with Hobo Willie guiding them. For
   1.376 +a minute the old man looked like Santa Claus, though Taiki rationalized it was
   1.377 +probably from their poor vision.
   1.378 +	"He seems kinda like old Saint Nick, doesn't he?" asked Seiya.
   1.379 +	"Yeah. An old Saint Nick who lost his job... and his mind," remarked 
   1.380 +Yaten. 
   1.381 +	"It's still nice that he's helping us get home," said Taiki.
   1.382 +	"Grab that!" yelled Hobo Willie.
   1.383 +	Seiya looked up just in time to see a carboard box flying at her. 
   1.384 +"AAaaaahhhhhh!" Seiya reflexively grabbed the box before it hit her.
   1.385 +	"Oh, good. You caught my house. I guess it wasn't as far across town as
   1.386 +I thought," said Hobo Willie. He pulled the box away from Seiya and folded it up.
   1.387 +"Don't you just love these new fangled mobile homes?" 
   1.388 +	They walked along through the snow until they reached a big building. 
   1.389 +	"Well, here you go. I believe this is your building," he said.
   1.390 +	"Thank you. I'd hug you if you weren't a scary old hobo," Yaten said 
   1.391 +happily as she shook his had and ran in to find Kakyuu.
   1.392 +	"Oh, what the hell," Seiya said and hugged the old man. Seiya followed
   1.393 +Yaten in.
   1.394 +	"Thanks again," said Taiki. "Is there anything we could do for you?"
   1.395 +	"Nah, Not unless you have parts to an edsel. There's a broken down one 
   1.396 +in the dump, and I'd be hell on wheels if I could get it to work," Hobo Willie
   1.397 +said.
   1.398 +	Taiki stared at him for a moment. "Here's some money. Use it for 
   1.399 +whatever you want. Merry Christmas."
   1.400 +	"C'mon Taiki. You're smart," said Yaten sticking her head around the
   1.401 +corner. "He's just going to buy booze with it."
   1.402 +	"Now there's a good idea," said Hobo Willie.
   1.403 +	Taiki walked inside as the Hobo walked off through the snow.
   1.404 +	Yaten opened the door to their apartment and Kakyuu threw herself 
   1.405 +into the other girls arms. 
   1.406 +	"Oh Yaten. I was so worried about you," said Kakyuu. "Don't scare me 
   1.407 +like that. I missed you." Yaten kissed Kakyuu.
   1.408 +	"I wish I had somebody like that who I could hold and kiss under the
   1.409 +mistletoe," said Seiya.
   1.410 +	Taiki looked up and saw some mistletoe hanging above Seiya. She kissed
   1.411 +Seiya.
   1.412 +
   1.413 +	Hotaru and ChibiUsa looked at the Christmas tree as they held each other.
   1.414 +	"Merry Christmas, ChibiUsa," said Hotaru.
   1.415 +	"Merry Christmas, Hotaru," replied ChibiUsa.
   1.416 +
   1.417 +The End
   1.418 +
   1.419 +Merry Christmas, Minna-san! ^-^
