Calm Before the Storm
A low rumble of thunder sounded, somewhere in the distance, and Ami looked up with a smile. Around her, people were hurrying from the sidewalks, ducking into stores along the streets, rummaging through their bags to find their umbrellas before the rain began.
Ami stopped short, tilting her face to the gray-blue sky.
She loved the smell of the sky before it rained - even before she had realized her destiny as Sailor Mercury, she had always felt calmer in the moments before a storm, stopping to breathe in the smell of water-heavy air.
The rain started all at once, fat drops that bounced when they hit the pavement. Anyone still outside quickly found shelter, but Ami started walking slowly down the sidewalk. She dipped into her power, just a little, to let the water swirl around her as she walked, smile bright in the rain.
THE END
