or Go Back.
Your Choice, hot-stuff.
Celeste:� Kira!
Rei: Come back!
*as they reach the top, they see Lita, Amy, Mina, and Artemis sitting on the patio-thingy-hey*
Mina:� Hi, girls.� What's up?
Rei (panting):� After the bell rang . . . Kira bolted out of class . . . without even waiting for us.
Celeste:� Yeah.� She was bummed all day.
Lita:� Why?
Rei:� Who knows?
*Serena and Luna come running up the stairs*
Serena:� Hey, guys!� I'm actually close to being on time for once!
Luna:� I told you to head to the meeting directly after school, but you thought it was more important to gab with Molly for ten minutes.
Amy:� Oh, stop it you two.� You'll have plenty of time for that later.� Right now we have to do something about Kira.
Serena:� Why?� What's wrong?
Artemis:� She's upset and probably hiding somewhere...
Rei:� She could be anywhere, though.� You know her...
Lita: So� let's go!� *runs off in one direction*
Mina:� Lita, wait!� *Mina and Artemis follow*
Amy (turning to Serena):� I'll go this way, while you and Luna go that way.
Serena:� Okay.� Hey Kira!� Come out, come out wherever you are!!!�
*Amy walks in one direction and Serena and Luna walk in another*
Rei (turning to Celeste):� I'll check around back.� *runs around the temple*
Phoebe:� Okay, we're finally alone.� Now where is she hiding, why, and how can we console her?
Celeste:� Since when do you care this much about Kira?
Phoebe:� Think about it, Celeste.� Do you know how much glory I could get for this?
Celeste:� I should have known...
������������������������������������������������ *��������� *��������� *
Mina:� Now where would she be hiding?� *looks up a tree*
Lita (climbing to the roof):� I haven't the slightest id-----� Phelan?
Phelan:� Good afternoon, Lita.
Lita:� What are you doing up here?!?
Phelan:� Observing the beautiful view from atop the Cherry Hill Temple.� It's quite nice.� You should come up here more often.
Artemis (jumping to the roof):� Is Kira up here?
Grandpa:� Hello young man!� *pops up out of nowhere*
Artemis:� MEEEOOOOOWWW!!!� *almost falls off the roof*
Phelan:� *voice cracks*� Uh . . . hi.
Grandpa:� So you like the view up here too?� I like to sit up here and watch the stars at night.� I fell off the roof once!� My grandaughter, Rei, was really worried about me.� She worries too much.� *Phelan's face is twitching this whole time, folks*� Do you know her?� She's the pretty girl that works here.� Hey!� You two should go on a date!� She hasn't had a date in months!
���������������������������������������������������� *�������� *�������� *
Serena:� Kira!� Oh, where are you?� I'm tired, Luna.� *plops down next to a tree*
Luna:� Get up, Lazy-bones!� You're not going to find Kira by just sitting there.� You have to get up and look!� I can just imagine Phoebe now...
*image of Phoebe pops up*
Phoebe:� Ha ha ha ha ha!� And you call her the Champion of Justice?� She's so lazy!� Ha!� She's a failure!� Ha ha ha ha!� You failed!� Ha ha ha ha!
*fades away*
Serena:� Oh, Luna.� You're over-reacting.� She'd never be that mean to you....
Luna:� Oh, really?
Serena:� Yeah, really.� Now c'mon.� Let's go find Kira.� Kira!!!� Where are you?
���������������������������������������������������� *�������� *�������� *
*Amy is looking behind a bush, in the shed, behind the gate...*
Amy:� It's like playing hide-and-go-seek with a three year old...*sees Rei* Hi Rei!
Rei *runs up to Amy*:� Hi, Amy.� Find Kira?
Amy:� Not a trace.� Where could she be?
Rei:� I don't know.� It seems like we've checked almost all of the temple grounds...
Amy:� Rei...do you have any idea as to what upset her?� Did anyone insult her?� She may be crazy, but she's not stupid.
Rei:� I don't think so.� Let's check with Celeste.� She knows Kira better than anyone.
���������������������������������������������������� *�������� *�������� *
*Celeste quietly walks into Kira's room with Phoebe right next to her*
Phoebe:� Aha!� So she's her in her room!
A muffled voice coming from the box (that sounds vaguely like Kira):� Yeah, Pheebs, I'm a diabolical genius.
Celeste:� Kira, you have everyone searching the temple grounds for you.
Phoebe:� And you know how big it is!� And I found you!� In your face Luna!� Ha ha ha!
Kira:� Ahh!� Big!� *the box beside Kira's bed starts to shake*
���������������������������������������������������� *�������� *�������� *
Grandpa:� ...and then she stopped seeing him.� I don't know why.� And then Chad came along and I think those two would really hit it off!� *Atremis yawns, Lita continues twiddling her thumbs, Mina fiddles with some twigs, and Phelan sighs heavily*� But Rei is afraid to start a relationship with him, I think.� But you seem like a nice young man!� So how about it?
Phelan:� Uh . . . um . . . well . . . you see . . . um . . .� *Chad appears on the ground next to Mina*
Chad:� Grandpa!� Get off the roof!� You know what will happen if Rei finds out!�
*Rei and Amy appear*
Rei:� Find out what, Chad.
Chad:� Rei!� Oh!� Uh, hi.
Rei *gritting her teeth*:� Spill it, Chad.
Chad:� Well . . . you see . . . um . . . *Grandpa clambers down off the roof*
Grandpa:� Hello Rei!� Have you met this nice young man?� *points to Phelan*
Chad:� Hey, dude!� What's up?
Amy:� Phelan?� What are you doing on the roof?
Lita:� He's following Mina around.
Phelan:� I'm not following her!
Grandpa:� So Phelan's your name!
Lita:� Uh, guys?� We're supposed to be looking for Kira, remember?
Chad:� Kira?� Well, I saw Celeste talking to her box before I came out.
Rei:� I should have known!� The box!� We had a field day today!� She hates open spaces!
Mina:� Well, let's go!
*Serena and Luna appear*
Serena:� We looked all over, and there's no sign of her.
Lita:� Celeste found her already.
Luna:� MEEEOOOOOWWW!?!?
Amy:� Well, let's go see if we can help.
������������������������������������������������� *������ *������ *
Celeste:� C'mon, Kira.� Come out.
Kira:� Why?
Celeste:� 'Cause it's hard taliking to a box.
*Kira throws one of the flaps open*
Kira:� Better?
Celeste:� So what's wrong?
Kira:� You know...field day.
Celeste:� Oh.
Phoebe:� So you were in a big area all day.� What's the big deal?
Kira:� I was in a tiny bubble most of my life and the open spaces scare me!� *head pops out of the box*
Celeste:� But Kira, I'll always be there for you.
� *a piano chord sounds out of nowhere*
Celeste:� Yikes!
Phoebe:� What the heck was that?
