Knights of the Round are owned by Myself. What has happened before : Skuld and I took a trip into Stargate SG-1 and we found out that life was quite exciting and fun as a member of SG-1. After a brief firefight with Gou’ald Serpent Troops, my sex changing secret which was hidden since arriving in the universe, was revealed. After a series of VERY embarrassing tests, we left Stargate SG-1 a couple of months afterwards. We landed in Sailor Moon Sailorstars and promptly got blasted by very paranoid Senshi. And now, part 4. Ratings of PG-13 cross this episode as with all the others. A slight lime warning but nothing crossing that perilous threshold. OOC warning : Skuld fell in love with me in the first episode. I’m glad for it but still weary about the lasting effects of the Love Potion. See episode 2. Note that most of this story won’t be told from my point of view. It’s mostly told from others point of view. A Simple Wish Version 3.1.1 Final by Shaun Garin Chapter 4 : Deja’vu “JUPITER OAK EVOLUTION!!!” I cried out in pain as the high voltage attack poured into my system with a jolt of power. Jupiter’s expression turned to horror as I jumped in front of Skuld to protect her. “Ohmygod!!” she gasped. Don’t worry, Kami-sama forgave her for that. Skuld grabbed my falling form and cradled my head in her arms. “Shaun!” she cried out. “Speak to me!” I groaned slightly. “Not a way to get introduced into a universe, is it?” I coughed up some blood. A tear fell from her eyes as she pulled the Key from the pack I had in my bag. With shaky hands, she started to dial in the number for home. Suddenly, she felt a presence. Not like those Senshi who had zapped her loved one, but angelic. She turned around to see... “Oneesama!!!” Belldandy towered over us, a saddened look on her face. “Let me try and help.” Placing her hands on my chest, I felt a warmth spread over my fried body. Soon, I drifted off into a blissful sleep. Skuld picked me up in her arms, straining slightly. “Lets go back home.” Bell nodded and pulled Skuld through a mirror. Another man, about 18 years old glared at the shamefaced Senshi. “What were you thinking?! You could have killed them!” Jupiter stared at her booted feet. “Ww made a mistake. We’re really sorry.” Sarryn glared at them. “You should all be sorry. Now go back to your homes. This is not over.” *** The horror. Sarryn Excalibur, now known as Ranko Saotome, sat on the side of the bed, his now motherly instincts bringing him to the Temple up near Nekomi Tech. Urd slipped in. “Bell says he’ll be all right. Are you okay?” Sarryn nodded. “Yeah. It’s weird. Here is the very man responsible for my existence. This whole universe is his creation. Kami-sama just made it material.” He smirked while looking at the prone man on the bed. “Funny, he looks just like me.” “I know. From what the other Skuld said, he was granted a wish.” Urd looked at him, “but the funny thing is, he gave it up for Skuld.” “Really? I’ve never heard of a human giving up their wish for a Goddess before. He’s different.” Urd nodded. “Skuld’s matured. She’s his girlfriend.” “No kidding? Wow. Wonder when you’ll fall for a mortal?” Urd ran her fingers over his chest playfully. “Oh? And I thought you were classified as a mortal, ne?” Sarryn blushed as he swept his bangs back. “It’s just that between the tests from Ra, we haven’t had time together.” Urd suddenly looked put off, “What? The sister of Ranma Saotome going lesbian on them?” “Nononononononononono! It’s not like that. It’s just that my male body isn’t the same one. I was born a woman and proud of it. But...when I change into my old form, it doesn’t seem right.” Sarryn sighed. “I guess that the only one to blame is the man in front of me.” Urd shook her head, “he only wrote what happened before. He may not even be accurate with what will happen to us. Who knows? With his influence, he might have one of us die, or something like that.” She gave the sleeping boy a glance. “But that’s not how he operates. He always brings people to life.” “Through my death,” Sarryn commented bitterly. “But you have a point.” Urd looked impassionately at him. “Try to let it go. Come on, let him get some sleep.” Sarryn grinned and scooped a surprised goddess in his arms, his armor banishing with his movements, while reverting to his natural form. Urd grinned and wrapped her arms around her neck, kissing the fine hairs on her nape. The door slammed shut behind the couple. *** I awoke the next morning to find a almost mummy layer of bandages on my face and arms. Brief memories of Jupiter zapping me with her ultimate attack still rang freshly in my mind. Grunting with exertion, I pulled my body from the plush futon. The smell of breakfast assailed my nostrils as I stood up, wincing from my twisted ankle. After donning a pair of shorts and a shirt left for me, I stumbled into the kitchen where Belldandy stood cooking breakfast. Wait a sec, Bell?! “Bell! What am I doing back here?” She looked up, a smile on her face. “Oh, you’re up. Skuld carried you in last night after I healed you. How was the night?” “Fine. What universe is this?” “Um...I don’t really know.” Urd came into the room, seemingly refreshed considering what just happened last night. Sarryn followed, equally bright eyed. My gaze grew stern at Urd’s presence. “So, are you still trying to drug us?” I asked. Urd blinked. “Sorry, you must have me mistaken for your Urd.” I shrugged. “Okay.” “But that’s not gonna change anything,” she said with a evil grin. I sweated. “Uuuuuuurddddddd!” I whined. She grinned evilly at me and made a motion that indicated she was not going to give up. I hung my head. Sarryn looked at me. “So, you’re the one who wrote the stories about us?” “Uh? Whoa! Well, now I know which universe I’m in.” He nodded. “I should be upset but I’m not.” I looked up. “You’re not?” “Nope. So Anyways, lets eat!” We set about devouring the large stack of pancakes in front of us. After a minute of eating, Skuld entered the room, looking like she spent the night crying. I looked up and immediately rushed towards her, supporting her in my arms. “Skuld-chan? Are you all right?” She nodded. “I’m all right. I see you’re better.” I winced slightly. “Another shot of healing spells should curb the pain.” She cradled my head in her arms, resting my head on her chest. Urd “aaaawwww”ed. *** “This is a great bistro. Keiichi and I come here every so often. Its a great place and they remodel it every so often.” Bell sipped her club soda. Keiichi nodded and ate his food. I was clothed in a special tuxedo. A red cummerbund wrapped my weist. A white shirt, loose but form fitting covered my black vested shouders. Skuld was dressed in a tight black dress that nearly permitted no real leg movement. Her nails was done in a bright red, and had longer extensions. Her hair was down in a straight hairstyle. Belldandy stood and said, “We need to powder our noses. Wait here.” *** “Do you really like him Skuld?” Bell asked. “You’re only really physically 16 years old. “Actually I’m not sure,” she admitted. “I was drugged with him during a banquet. We nearly had sex that night. I’m not sure if Shaun knows it but there might be a bit of left over residue of the potion in both our systems.” “Really? How so?” She blushed. “He shows a lot of affection. And he kissed me several times. Passionately.” “Oh my,” Bell commented lightly. “Sounds to me that you actually are under the potions influence still.” “I don’t think so but I’m not sure. I think I really do love him.” “Then show it. Come, the men are waiting.” *** “I think she’s still under the potions spell. For that matter, I probably am too.” Keiichi snorted. “Join the club. But if you really love her, then show her.” I laughed. “This coming from a man who can’t ask a certain sandy haired goddess for marriage. Soon, the women returned ad sat down. I took of my jacket and laid it over the back of the chair. The string group finished playing. Suddenly, I had a flash of inspiration. I only saw the movie a few times but I clearly remembered the moves. *** Urd watched Shaun and Skuld speaking in low tones across the way. Suddenly he stood and took hold of her hand. The music swelled over the room as he spun her around to face him. Suddenly, he started to trail kisses from one end of her arms to the other, stopping when she held up a hand. The music swelled into a fast rhythm and he spun her around, in an incredibly fast spin. He stopped her and started to dance. They moved back and forth, spins and turns. As he leaned her out, she started to flirt with a seaman. The young man saw this and spun her around in a flaming trail. She stopped in his arms. She danced and spun, spinning towards a table. Picking up some clams, she started to use them as clickers, the sounds forming in a rhythm. He took a table cloth and whipped it out, spinning around, swirling the cloth like a cape. Shaun flipped it onto the table again and she dropped the clams. Picking up a knife, she threw it and he caught it between his teeth, earning a surprised gasp from the other patrons of the bistro. They came together and danced a lively motion, only pausing to light a woman’s cigarette. Shaun suddenly started to backflip right atop a table, and landed in front of Skuld. Grasping his arm, Skuld spun on his arm and he started to spin her on the floor. They moved faster and faster until suddenly, they screeched to a halt and he dipped her, kissing her deeply. Champagne bottles popped up in a salute to their love. Urd’s jaw was on the table. “When did she learn the Addamms family dance?” Sarryn shrugged. “Little things we don’t know about her are coming out.” *** I smiled tenderly. “Caramia,” I whispered. “Mon Cher,” she whispered back. I pulled her to a stable position and escorted my date for the night to our table. Pulling out a chair, she slid down on it and I pushed it in. Then I sat down myself. I picked up my fork and started to eat the western cuisine. After a minute, I looked up at Keiichi’s staring form. “What?” Keiichi blinked several times. “That was amazing! I never knew that the dance could be pulled off like that.” Skuld smiled and took a bite of her pasta. “It was thrilling,” she said with a feline smile. Keiichi shuddered slightly at the same expression only reserved for Urd when thinking something...bad. “I’ll bet,” he said. I choked back a snicker as he remained unusually quiet and pale for the rest of the night. *** Skuld leaned her head against my chest as we stared into the moonlight. She sighed while snuggling up to me. In that moment, nothing could go wrong. Famous last words... Suddenly, in my bedroom, the Key started to sparkle with iridescent light. The blue sparks threw off high levels of electrical power. Suddenly, a blue hue encompassed my vision. *** I came to in a brightly lit bedroom, the sunlight streaming down through the drapes. Around me seemed like there was more clothing. With a start, I found it was my parents room with some changes. Most of the furniture was moved and more pictures lined the walls. In the closet lay more clothing set for two people with broader tastes. I sat up, and my vision cleared even more. There was white clothing and black items littering the room. The smell of cooking wafted in the air. I heaved my body out of the still warm bed and slipped on a bathrobe hanging on a rack. Strolling down, I entered the kitchen to find Skuld happily cooking some food. I blinked at her attire. Actually, lack of it. “Skuld? What’s going on?” She looked up. “Hi honey! I was wondering when you would get up. You seem tired from last night.” she grinned. “I seemed to wear you out.” ‘Masaka! She can’t mean...’ “For a man who resisted all of Urd’s Love Potions, you were very good in bed,” she purred. ‘Crud!!!’ I rushed up and grabbed her shoulders, spinning her around to stare at her. “Skuld? Are we married?” She stared at me. “Well duh! We married last night. It was wonderful.” she said with a blissful smile. I tensed up in shock as I sat down. Skuld noticed my worried expression and wrapped her arms around my neck. “Honey? What’s wrong?” “Skuld, do you remember that trip we took through dimensions?” She nodded. “I still have the Key in our room. Why?” “I’m a Shaun but probably not YOUR Shaun. I woke up in bed, finding myself totally worn out.” “Oh my...and now, your Skuld is wandering around in the universe?” she asked. I nodded sadly. “The man you were making love to last night was your Shaun. I just became a part of him as he became part of me.” Skuld nodded. “I guess that when you leave, my Shaun will return, right?” “That’s the going theory.” “I see.” Skuld sat down, and started to eat her food. I picked up my fork and started on my breakfast. She looked at me, a odd look on her face. Suddenly, she grinned. “Gotcha!” I looked up, startled. “Skuld? Is that you?” She nodded happily. “I phased into this body last night. You were wonderful honey!” She leaned over and stuck her pink tongue out playfully. I blushed deep crimson. “So...was I REALLY good?” “Lets put it this way, you were seven inches more good.” I reddened even deeper. After a brief silence, I asked, “How old are we?” “About 21 years old. I’m 20.” She took a big bite of her pancakes. “We were engaged for two years and got married last night. “Really?” I said, raising an eyebrow. “I don’t suppose you could show me some of those things today?” “Hentai!” She playfully slammed me over the head with her mallet. “But if you want...” she said, trailing off suggestively. I eeped and hid my blushing face. She laughed. “I won’t make you if you don’t want to.” *** Back at the other universe... “Belllll!” Urd whined, “Why do WE have to go and find them?” Belldandy placed her hands on her hips and looked at her with a pleading look. The puppy dog look crushed the Goddesses resolve to dust as she gave up. “all right, we’ll go and get them.” *** Two days later.... I pulled out the fine tuned Key from the desk in my room and flipped open the directory. Soon, I slapped it shut, the number memorized. Skuld said her last goodbye’s to her sisters and we walked out into the sunlight. Belldandy leaned on Keiichi’s shoulder. “Do you think they will get home soon?” “If the number is right then yes.” Keiichi answered. Soon, the blue energy engulphed the two travellers, leaving a wide eyed Skuld in its wake. They knew that she was the Skuld of their world. “Ano...what happened?” she said. “You were part of another Skuld Kid,” Urd answered. “You just split from her when they left a second ago.” “Don’t call me a kid!” she shot back. Urd naturally countered it and soon, the century old arguement arose once again. Keiichi, Belldandy and Sarryn all sighed. “They never change, do they?” Sarryn said while watching the arguement with interest. Belldandy nodded. “As long as they refrain from using their powers in public then it will not be very bad for them.” Keiichi snorted. “As if that’ll stop their arguements.” *** We appeared in my home with a bright flash of light. The house was dark, and the clock read, 4:00 AM. I yawned loudly and walked into the kitchen and turned on the hot water. Skuld hugged me and then jumped into the water. I turned it off and retreated to a few hours of sleep. *** Two months later... “Are you sure you want to do this? You’re only a Senior.” I nodded as I hefted my bag. “I’d like to try it for a while. If I don’t like it, then I’ll come back home. Besides, I’m renting a apartment atop the College Hill.” My mom gathered me into a hug, “Take good care of yourself.” “I will.” Dad smiled as he hugged me too. “Take care and watch yourself and your girlfriend.” He released me and then looked at Skuld. “Take care of my son please. He’s still young.” “Hai, I will.” I climbed into the van and Skuld got in the other side. The engine roared to life as I waved goodbye to my parents. The only thing that bothered me was that in my whole relationship, I never told my parents who she really was. *** “Seems nice,” Skuld said, unpacking the TV from the box. “Roomy, and allows more renovating.” she stood the old TV on the table already there and switched it on. Urd immediately slid out of the screen. Bell followed from the mirror I hung on the wall. Urd took a appreciative glance around. “This will be a great place to live in. A little fixing up by the Goddess of Finesse and this place will be totally inhabitable.” she cracked her knuckles. I raised an eyebrow. “Goddess of Finesse? I thought you considered yourself the Goddess of Love.” “Whatever,” Urd said while starting to weave her spell. Soon, objects started streaming out of the boxes and furniture appeared from out of the mirrors and TV. Soon, the whole place looked like a luxury home. No, more like a showroom. The carpet brightened to a soft beige as the dust and grime raised from it and dumped itself out the door. The walls sealed up, cracks mended, and the blinds and windows changed into nicer ones. The house soon looked like it was a luxury house, both inside and out. I had a hunch that the neighbors wondered how come the whole place suddenly looked beautiful. As I put down the photo frames, a knock at the door brought my attention. Skuld skipped down the hall and yelled, “I got it!” She opened the door to reveal Mrs. Todosichuck with a LOT of food.” “Hello!” she announced. “I heard Shaun was living up here now and thought he needed some food for tonight.” I waved, “Hey Mrs. T.! Come in!” She stepped in and took her shoes off. Walking into the kitchen, she laid the steaming dishes on the kitchen table and looked around. “This place looks nice!” she announced. “When did you remodel it?” “A while ago.” I answered. “Oh, these are my friends. This is Belldandy,” said sandy haired woman bowed. “Urd,” said platinum haired woman smiled and leaned up against the table, “and Skuld.” She smiled and shook Mrs. T’s hand. “Konichiwa, I’m pleased to meet you.” “Oh so you’re the one Marilyn says is Shaun’s girlfriend,” the older woman said with a smile. I blushed deep red. “Well, I got to go and feed my boyshiki so I’ll see you later.” “Kay, see you later Mrs. T.” When the door closed, I sighed. “That’s the best thing about neighbors who’s sons are your little brothers best friend.” Skuld nodded and went back down the hall. *** Skuld repressed a loud yawn, only half succeeding. I looked up from my school texts and said, “You should teleport back home. It’s about four in the morning over in Japan.” She shook her head. “I’ll be fine.” “If you say so.” I returned to studying for my next big test. The finals for this term were coming up in about two weeks and I needed to be prepared. Just then, condensation started to form on the camera lens of the camera, sitting at the table. Soon, a beam of energy lanced out and a older goddess appeared. To tell the truth, I had never seen Peorth before, only gaining the gist of her looking like Mrs. Tendo. And that wasn’t enough to describe her. “Why hello hello hello! So this is where you’ve been running off to Skuld-chan.” Peorth gushed. “And this is the mortal you fell for? Good choice!” Skuld sighed. “You had to drop in Obaasama?” Peorth pouted. “I wanted to see how you were doing! This is a nice place though!” “Thanks,” I said from behind my textbook. Skuld yawned loudly. “You really need some sleep,” I said through the book, “Take the bed. I’ll sleep on the couch.” She shook her head. “I’ll teleport back home and sleep for a while.” Peorth grinned. “I guess you two should get some sleep. I’m going back home. Later!” with that, she dived into the camera. *** “Are you sure you don’t want the bed?” I asked. Skuld nodded. She had already changed into a nightgown and had gathered a blanket and a soft down filled pillow. “I’ll be okay. Really, go and sleep. You have a big test tomorrow.” “Okay,” I dragged out as I entered my room. *** The door creaked open with the slightest motion. I was still awake, laying in the bed. Soon, a soft body slipped under the sheets and cuddled up. I tried not to grin as she mumbled and slipped into a blissful sleep. I sighed and fell asleep in another few minutes. Urd silently slipped in and took a snapshot. She grinned as she walked out. The photo showed Shaun sleeping on his back, Skuld snuggled up to his side, a arm draped over his chest. Her hair messed up and his shirt riding up, it looked like they just made out. Urd shot the picture to remember the great leap in maturity her little sister had displayed that night. End Chapter 4 I wanted this to be longer but it was the hardest episode to write. It’ll make sense when I write the next chapter. Next time : Its 1999, Dec 1. The anniversary of the new couple is coming up. Guess what Shaun and Keiichi are trying to do this time.
