Miracles of love

Usagi, Mamoru, the other four girls and the two cats were at the top of the school building to see the three
lights and their princess off.
Yaten was very happy and Luna looked at him whit stars in her eyes.
Seiya : ' Odango, it's great that your boyfriend returned.'
Usagi: ' I must thank you for that. Because of you I was able to do my best.'
seiya : ' Odango, you know how I feel about you! '
Usagi : 'yes we are friends for ever.'
Seiya looked very disappointed and Yaten burst into laughter. The girls began to make fun of Usagi and
she and Rei nearly began another fight.
Seiya looked at Mamoru and said: ' Mamoru San, now it's your duty to protect her.'
Mamoru looked puzzled.
Seiya : 'A snobbish guy was saying it.'
Mamoru nodded: ' I know.'.
Seiya : 'Bey, Odango! '
The three lights transformed into sailor star lights and princess Kakyuu said: 'thank you very much.'
Then they said: ' good by ' and left.
Usagi said in her heart: 'Tank you Seiya.'

All of a sudden she felt so sad and empty, she thought: "I'm just tired. This final battle was too much for
me." And crawled into Mamoru's arm.
Mamoru : ' come Usako, I'll walk you home.'
She nodded happily, clinging to him. But that strange feeling of emptiness didn't leave her.
"May be Mamo chan doesn't love me any more!" She thought with horror.
She stopped and looked at Mamoru.
'Mamo chan Do you like me? 'She asked.
Mamoru : ' yeah.'
Still she was feeling that something was wrong.
Usagi : 'Really? '
Mamoru : 'Yeah'
Usagi : 'How much? '
Mamoru : ' what's the matter? '
Usagi : ' How much? '
She needed to know.
Mamoru : ' I feel grate when I'm whit you.'
They looked at each other and shared a kiss, but for Usagi it wasn't like the kisses they had shared before
.Some thing was missing.

****************************************************************** **********
Usagi was sitting by the window and gazed at the sparkling stars in the night
sky.
'How bright they are'she murmured as tears weald up in her eyes. She sighed.
'What's wrong whit me? ' She asked herself with surprise.
Usagi was crying when Luna came in. The black cat looked at her whit concern.
Luna : ' What's wrong usagi chan? '
Usagi : ' Nothing, every thing is just perfect.'
Luna : ' Why are you crying then? '
Usagi: ' I'm just tired.'
Luna : ' Are you sure that you're all right? '
Usagi : ' Of course! I just need some rest that's all.'
Luna : ' I wonder ....'
Usagi : ' Huh? '
Luna : ' Nothing.... nothing at all...'
Usagi looked at the stars agin and then she whispered: ' It's strange, every night I have the same dream
....... why? '
She opened her odangoes and brushed her hair.
" What would Seiya say if he could see me now?" She thought.
Usagi : ' How I long for some sleep. Good night Luna.'
Luna :' good night.'
Luna looked at usagi and said in a very low voice: ' may be she is really just tired after
all ! '
The next morning when Luna Jumped up into Usagi's bed to wake her up she was surprised to see that
Usagi wasn't in her bed anymore. She ran to Minako's house to talk whit Artemis.
Usagi was the first person who entered the classroom that morning. She went to her seat then stopped.
Her gaze was fixed on the vacant seat behind. She breathed heavily and asked: ' Seiya what are
you doing now? '
She went and sat on his seat. She sighted and closed her eyes. Memories were flashing through her head.
She rested her head on her hands and fell asleep.
She felt a hand on her shoulder and heard a voice saying: ' usagi chan, wake up! wake up.' She opened
her eyes and saw ami standing at her side.
Ami gave her a strange look. Then she asked: 'why are you sitting here? '
Usagi not remembering where she had been sitting answered: ' Because it's my place. What a stupid
question ! '
Ami looked concerned: ' Usagi chan are you all right? '
Usagi : ' Yeah, why do you ask? '
Ami : ' Well, it seems you didn't notice that you were sitting on Seiya's seat. '
A sweat drop appeared at Usagi's head and she Jumped up and screamed: ' What? '
Then she fell down and began to cry. Ami became also a sweat drop.

After school Usagi was walking home, alone and depressed when Ami, Makoto and Minako showed up.
' Usagi chan is something wrong? ' Minako asked.
Usagi : ' No, of course not.'
Makoto : ' Are you sure? '
Usagi : ' Yeah, I'm just tired.that's all.'
Ami : ' You know that we're here for you if you need us.'
' Yeah. Thanks but I'm really ok. I have to go. Bye.' she said and ran away.
Minako : ' Strange, she looks so depressed. May be she has problems with Mamoru san.'
Makoto : ' She didn't mention him the whole day.'
Ami : ' So that is the problem! '

Usagi was running with all her power when she bumped into somebody.
she looked up and gasped
: ' Mamo chan! '
Mamoru smiled: ' it seems you'll never grow out of this habit! '
' I'm sorry. ' She said sulkily
Mamoru chuckled: ' Don't be. I guess fate wants us to run into each other.'
Usagi sighed.
Mamoru : ' Usako what's the matter? '
Usagi got a sweat drop: ' Nothing. Why do you ask? '
Mamoru : ' Oh, forget it. What about going on a date? '
Usagi looked at him for a moment then she smiled faintly: ' sorry Mamo chan, I haven't recovered from
the battle whit Galaxia yet. May be another time.'
Mamoru looked a little shocked but he said: ' All right Usako. As you wish.'
Usagi smiled at him: ' see you later Mamo chan.'
Mamoru gazed at her until she was out of his sight. He had an uneasy feeling that she was avoiding him
on purpose.
Then he shook his head and said: ' in a couple of days she'll be the old Usako again.'

****************************************************************** **********
Usagi sighed: ' what's wrong with me? '
She was thinking about the bond between herself and Mamoru.She couldn't understand Why it did feel
so wrong and began to cry.
Luna jumped into her lap and waited a few seconds then when there was no respond she said softly
: ' Usagi chan, please tell me the truth, why have you changed so
dramatically ? '
Usagi looked surprised and echoed: ' Dramatically? '
Luna nodded: ' Yes, dramatically. You cry yourself to sleep every night, you are sighing the whole day,
you are wretched and miserable, you're purposely avoiding Mamoru san AND you're SKIPPING MAILS
which is very strange indeed. You can't fool me, so tell me the truth Usagi chan, Tell me the truth.'
Usagi mumbled: ' I wish I knew ... ' and began to cry again.
****************************************************************** **********
Usagi woke up early in the morning. She had the same dream again.
In her dream she saw the star lights leave. Then she was in the park with Mamoru.she asked him if he
liked her and then they kissed. When she looked up, she saw that she was kissing Seiya.Then Seiya
began to fade away and all of a sudden Mamoru was standing there smiling at her. She always woke up
at that moment .
'How strange ' she whispered.
She couldn't go back to sleep so she got up and dressed. She was about to leave when Luna woke up
and asked sleepily: ' where are you going?
Usagi : ' What a stupid question. To school of course.'
Luna was shocked: ' At Sunday? '
Usagi : ' What it's Sunday again? '
Luna : ' What do you mean by again? '
Usagi : ' Nothing, I just felt that to day must be Tuesday.'
Luna got a big sweat drop at the side of her head.
Usagi went to the bath room and took a shower. She began to talk with herself: ' How curious , today is Sunday, and I forgot it. What happened to me? Is it because that odd dream is hunting me? ... Why am I
kissing Seiya in my dreams?...and why don't I want to go on a date whit Mamo chan? ...Oh, I'm so
confused..... What's wrong whit me? ... Mamo chan is back and he is nicer to me then ever.... No new
enemies and no fighting... I can
rest , eat , watch TV , play video games and date Mamo chan .... So why I'm not happy? ....Why?
Why do I feel that something is missing ? .... What is it? .... UUH! '
She screamed when she ran out of warm water.
' Why should this happen to me ' she complained.

She was drying her hair when Ikuko mamma came in and said: ' Mamoru san is on the line'
Usagi : ' Ah, I'm drying my hair tell him I'll call him back later.'
Ikuko mamma looked at her with disbelief: ' Have you two had a fight? '
Usagi : ' Any, of course not! '
Ikuko mamma: ' You had better answer the phone. If you act like this, you may lose
him . '
Usagi : ' But I'm not in the mood .....'
Ikuko mamma: ' Don't act so childish. Go and answer the phone.'
Usagi picked up the phone reluctantly: ' Mushi Mushi.'
Mamoru : ' How are you feeling usako? I was so worried about you.'
Usagi : ' I'm ok. I was drying my hair. Would you mind if I'll call you back later? '
After a short silence Mamoru answered: ' No, I don't mind. Go and dry your hair.'
She expelled her breath with relief and hanged the phone up.
Luna : ' So, that's the matter...'
Usagi : ' What? '
Luna : ' You don't love him anymore, do you? '
Usagi : ' Of course I do love him. He is my destiny.'
Luna : ' Yes he is. So don't act silly. Not only the future but also chibi-Usa's existence depends on it that
you two stay together.'
Usagi swallowed hard: ' I know Luna. I know and I'll go through it for chibi-Usa's sake.'
Tears were running down her face.
Luna : ' You said that you would go through it. That means it isn't what you want, is it? '
Usagi : ' No, it isn't. I didn't recognize it, but now I realize that I don't love him any
more . '
Luna : ' Why? '
Usagi : ' I feel unsatisfied when I'm whit him. I know that he is a kind and caring person but ... I just
don't love him like a boyfriend, and yet I have to marry him. Oh god that's dreadful.'
She began to sob violently, gasping for air between sobs. Her whole body was shaking.
To Luna's horror she didn't stop sobbing and crying until she fainted .
****************************************************************** **********
Mamoru and the four inner's were at the Hikawa shrine discussing Usagi's strange behaviour.
Mamoru was really concerned: ' I don't know what's wrong with her! She is avoiding me all the time
and she isn't herself anymore. I went to see her yesterday. She had lost a lot of wight ...and ... and her
eyes were filled with sorrow. I can't forget those sad eyes. She forced herself to be nice to me but she
couldn't fool me, it was obvious that she didn't want my company ...'
Rei gave him a sad look: ' Sure she loves your company. She always did. There must be something on
her mind. I'm going to ask the fire what's wrong with her and I'm going to do it now. '
Rei got up and left them. The other girls stared at mamoru with troubled eyes.
Ami asked shyly: ' Mamoru san did you two had a fight over something? '
Mamoru was surprised: ' No, of course not.'
Minako asked: ' And you weren't rude to her? '
Every one got sweat drops at their heads and Ami and Makoto said in union: ' Minako! '
Minako blushed: ' Gomen nasa.'
****************************************************************** **********

Usagi looked at her reflection in the mirror.' I look horrible ' she said.
She picked up a photo of herself and chibi Usa and stared at it, not really seeing it.
" There must be a way to save chibi Usa without sacrificing myself. " She thought.
She put the picture on her desk and sighed: ' I'm going to ask Rei chan for advice. Yeah ... I'm sure
that Rei chan can find a solution.'

Usagi was climbing the stairs leading to Hikawa shrine when she heard her name mentioned by some
body . She began to sneak closer. Then she heard Rei's voice: ' I need more time to meditate but one
thing is obvious .....'
Rei became silent all of a sudden . After a few seconds Minako's voice was heard: ' For heaven's sake
Rei, tell us what is obvious! '
Usagi sneaked even closer. She could hear Rei's answer clearly: ' Usagi is paining away for Seiya kun.
If she doesn't go over him we must ask sailor Pluto for help....'
Usagi became made at Rei and the others. She ran away as fast as she could, crying bitterly. She
couldn't believe that her friends were berrying her so foully.
' I won't forgive you ' she sobbed. She felt anger rising inside her: ' I will not allow you to interfere in
my life. I don't let you change the past. I don't allow you to do that.'
She pushed her tears away and lifted her head. She said determinedly: ' I must hurry or it will be too
late . '

****************************************************************** ********
Sailormoon stood in the middle of her room, holding the ginzuishou. She bit her lip and hesitated for a
moment then she lifted the ginzuishou and concentrated on her problem almost using its full power.
She knew what she was doing and she was ready to die for it if necessary.
She whispered softly: ' Seiya I'm doing this for us.'
Her eyes filled with tears as she recalled the past. ' What an idiot I was! ' She uttered 'All the time I was
in love whit Seiya and didn't even recognize it! I was clutching to the past foolishly .....The past....
The past.... I always wanted to have a boyfriend and when I learned that Chiba Mamoru was Endymion and
Tuxedo kamen I created myself a splendid dream world. I was so obsessed with my dreams that I even
didn't notice that Mamoru wasn't who I had imagined ... Then Seiya came into my life and I fought against
the love that I felt for him. I deceived myself by ignoring the effect he had on me. How many times he made
me blush.... how many times I was worried about him... How worried I was to lose him when he found out
that I was sailor moon .... Yeah I acted silly ... He had told me how he felt about me, so why did I pretend
that I don't understand his feelings? I think I wanted to convince myself that I love Mamoru. I also
wanted convince Mamoru ....but why? ...'
She snapped out of her thoughts. She shook her head and cleared her mind. Her gaze was fixed on the
ginzuishou as she said: ' Please don't let any body change my past. Please bring me and Seiya
together and Please help me to find a solution for chibi Usa. Please help me. Please! '
The ginzuishou began to flash and suddenly she found herself in another dimension. She had
transformed into princess serenity. She saw Queen serenity standing in front of her.
Serenity : ' Queen Serenity! '
Queen Serenity: ' My sweet princess, at least you recognized that Endymion isn't a suitable match for
you . '
Serenity : ' Yes I did. I'm so sorry about the past and the pain I caused you. '
Queen Serenity: ' Don't worry about that princess. Every thing will be all right. I'm glad that you
learned to crate your own destiny. I assure you that nobody is going to interfere in the time line. Sailor
Pluto knows better then that. She had already broken too many
rules . You will also win your true love back.'
Serenity : ' And what about chibi usa? '
Queen serenity: ' Don't worry about an imaginary future.'
Serenity : ' But chibi Usa is real. I can't sacrifice her. I want her to become an adult and make her
dreams come true.'
Queen serenity: ' All her dreams have already come true in her farther future. Don't forget that chibi
Usa belongs to one of many possible futures you have. But I see you can't understand.'
Serenity : ' No, I can't. '
Queen serenity: ' trust the power of the ginzuishou.'
Serenity : ' I do.'
Queen serenity: ' You must go back to your dimension. Farewell princess.'
serenity : ' Good bye Queen Serenity, Dear mother! '
Usagi found herself standing in the middle of her room. She saw a bright light flashing and winced. She
didn't notice that the picture on her desk had changed.
A vague image of Queen serenity appeared in the back ground. The Queen Whispered:
' Chibi Usa and crystal Tokyo did never exist so nobody can remember them.'
Usagi didn't hear her. The image disappeared.
****************************************************************** **********
Haruka and Michiru were in the park by the water. They were teasing each other gently when they felt
a strange energy.
Michiru : ' What's that? I feel a powerful energy.'
Haruka : ' I know this power. Oh no, this is the Power of the legendary Silver Crystal! '
Michiru : ' The princess is in danger. We must hurry.'
They ran to Haruka's car.
At the same time the other four girls and the two cats were at the Hikawa temple Discussing Usagi's
condition .
Rei was telling them her point of view when she felt the energy of the ginzuishou. Her eyes widened whit
horror : ' Oh my god! Usagi! '
Luna said tearfully: ' She is using the silver crystal. We must stop her.'
Artemis : ' It's too late.'
Rei : ' May be we still have a chance.'
They all jumped up and transformed.
****************************************************************** **********
Haruka parked her car near Usagi's house and the two girls got off .
Haruka : ' I don't feel it anymore, may be we're too late.'
Michiru pushed her forward: ' Don't worry. We tried our best. '
Haruka : ' Yes, but ...'
Michiru : ' But you love her, don't you? '
Haruka : ' Don't be silly, I just like her ....'
Michiru : '... Very much! '
A few seconds later they were talking with Ikuko mamma.
Haruka : ' How is Usagi? We haven't heard from her for a long time.'
Ikuko mamma: ' I'm so glad too see you guys . Usagi is really worrying me. She is crying all the time
and she hasn't had a meal for a whole week.'
Haruka was shocked to hear that. She said with a very serious look on her face: ' We'll bring her back
to her sense.'
Michiru : ' You won't mind if we go to her room, will you? '
Ikuko mamma only shook her head.
Haruka knocked at Usagi's door and when there was no respond, she simply opened the door and walked
in . She gasped when she saw how thin and pal Usagi had became.
Haruka froze at her place and her green eyes became dull with pain. She couldn't believe what she was
seeing. She felt Michiru's hand on her shoulder.
Michiru smiled kindly at Usagi and went to her side. Then she asked softly: ' How are you doing? '
Usagi said only one word: ' Michiru san! '
Haruka managed a cheerful expression and joined Michiru.Then she casually touched Usagi's face and
lifted her chin: ' What's bothering you, my skinny kitten? '
Usagi blushed deeply. Haruka smiled at her fondly and said: ' I'm waiting for an answer Odango chan.'
Usagi : ' I don't want to marry Mamo chan. I discovered that I don't love him like a boyfriend. I feel
terribly guilty about that. I.... I.....'
She came to a pause not remembering why she had been so unhappy.
Usagi : ' I had known it for a long time but I kept deceiving myself.'
She looked at haruka and blushed again: ' Haruka san do you remember the first time we met? '
Haruka smiled: ' Hai, How could I forget neko chan! '
Usagi : ' well if you had been a guy, I would have broken up with Mamoru.'
Haruka asked playfully: ' So are you going to give me a chance? '
Usagi blushed for the third time: ' Haruka san! '
Michiru scowled and said drily: ' don't let her teas you.'
Usagi : ' Being honest, Mamo chan and I don't have any thing in common, I always wondered if we were
a good match ....'
Haruka interrupted her: ' You can't fool us Odango chan. Nobody is forcing you to stay whit him.
You're in love whit Seiya, am I right? '
Usagi's sight became foggy and she fainted before she could answer Haruka's question.
Haruka cuddled usagi in her arms and carried her to her bed. Michiru ran out and came back whit a
glass of juice. Haruka lifted usagi's head and forced the juice down her throat. Usagi opened her eyes.
Haruka smiled at her kindly: ' You have to eat something neko chan.'
Ikuko mamma entered the room. ' Usagi chan I brought you some soup.' She said.
' She will eat it.' Michiru promised.
Ikuko handed her a tray with a bowl of steaming soup on it and asked politely: ' would you two also like
some soup? '
' No thanks ' answered Haruka absent mindedly then she helped Usagi to sit and leaned her against
herself . Michiru also sat on Usagi's bed and began to feed her like a baby. Usagi was too weak to protest.
' It's a good thing that we had this experience with Hotaru.' Haruka joked.

****************************************************************** **********
The inner senshi arrived at Usagi's house. Sailor mars leaped to the balcony. She was surprised to see
Haruka and Michiru there. She jumped down the balcony and faced the others: ' We better detransform
and enter through the front door like civilized people.'
****************************************************************** **********
The inners had hardly arrived when there was a knock on the door and Mamoru came in. Usagi's gaze
darkened at his sight but Haruka had fast reflexes and led him out of the room immediately.
She studied his puzzled expression and began to talk whit him. Meanwhile, in Usagi's room the girls
were listening to her story.
Rei : ' Why didn't you just break up with him instead of torturing yourself to death? '
Usagi : ' Because ....'
She thought: '' How strange, why was I so miserable .... Oh yes, I remember, they were all on
Mamoru's side! That was why I used the ginzuishou. But I can't tell them that. "
Usagi had a flash back
* [Rei was saying: ' I gave up on Tuxedo Kamen. But you better become happy with
him . Otherwise, I will punish you. '] *
Usagi : ' I felt so guilty ruining your happiness for nothing ....'
Rei was shocked. She hugged usagi saying: ' Idiot! My relation whit Mamoru was never Serious.'
Michiru looked at them with surprise. Ami smiled and explained her that Mamoru had been Rei's
boyfriend before he and Usagi remembered their past lives.
Finally Usagi fell asleep and the girls left her room. A very depressed Mamoru was waiting for them.
Haruka : ' I have explained the situation to him and we settled every thing between us.'
Rei : ' Mamoru san, please forgive her. She is feeling so guilty ...'
Mamoru : ' She shouldn't. It's all my fault. At the beginning of our relation I had strange dreams. In
this dreams a voice was warning me to stay away from her. I had this dream so many times that I began
to believe it wasn't just a dream but a predication of the future. I had known that we couldn't be together
but I was too selfish to accept that.'
The inners remembered the time Mamoru tried to break up with Usagi but Chibi Usa and crystal Tokyo
were erased from their memories.
Mamoru : ' I have to go. Tell Usako I won't be a burden to her any more.'
****************************************************************** **********
In less then a week Usagi was almost her old self again. Haruka was relived to see her being cheerful
and chattery again. She had never suspected that she loved the younger girl so much.
" I love her almost as much as Michiru! " She thought. She glanced at her beloved and smiled. Michiru
and Usagi were deep in conversation. She heard Michiru's voice: ' .....and always trust your heart.
It never lies.'
Usagi : ' I will. Thank you Michiru san.'
Haruka : ' Shall we go? '
Michiru nodded.
Usagi asked hesitatingly: ' Haruka san can I ask you for a favor? '
Haruka : ' What Odango chan? '
Usagi showed her a ring with a little pink heart in the middle. She blushed and looked at Haruka,
entreating whit her eyes. Haruka nodded: ' Ok, My little kitten. I will give it to Mamoru san. Is there
any thing else You want us to do? '
Usagi : ' No, thank you so much Haruka san.'
****************************************************************** **********
Haruka and Michiru went to Mamoru's place. Haruka returned the ring to Mamoru. He took it with a
sad smile, then he said that he would go to the USA.
The inner senshi heard the news from Haruka. They went to the air port to see Mamoru
off . Rei said that Usagi had asked for forgiveness and he answered that there was nothing to forgive
and that it was all his fault.
Mamoru had a flash back.
* [Usagi was at the airport whit him. Usagi : ' I'll be waiting! I'll be waiting for you.] *
Mamoru sighed deeply: ' I have to go. Please take care of her.'
The girls nodded whit tears in their eyes.
A little bit later Mamoru's plan took off. The girls watched it go.
****************************************************************** **********
Usagi was on her balcony staring at the stars. She murmured: ' Seiya I'm missing you so much.
Please come back. Please come back.'
****************************************************************** **********

Somewhere faraway from the Earth on a distant planet in an unknown Galaxy, a pretty girl was sadly
looking at the night sky. ' What a pity that we don't have a moon here. ' She complained.
She sat on her feet and lowered her gaze. Her stunning blue eyes were filled with tears. ' Odango, what
are you doing now? ' She asked painfully. She clenched her fists and breathed deeply to avoid crying.
' I wish, I could see the moon from here.' she said.
She heard a familiar voice saying: ' You haven't stopped thinking about her, have you? '
She answered: ' No, and I never will. '
She felt a hand on her shoulder and turned to face her ally.
The shorter girl said bluntly: ' You're only torturing yourself. She has forgotten you by now.
Forget her.'
The first girl shook her head: ' I can't. I'll never forget her. never! '
****************************************************************** ****
Princess Kakyuu dismissed her guards then she looked at sailor star fighter and
said : ' fighter I wish to talk with you.'
Fighter bowed silently.
Kakyuu : ' Fighter what's wrong whit you? You have changed so much since we left the Earth.'
Fighter : ' Thank you for your concern princess, I'm completely all right.'
Kakyuu : ' Fighter please! I'm not only your princess but also your friend. Tell me what troubles you? '
Fighter hanged her head, not saying any thing.
Kakyuu : ' Healer and Maker are worried about you and so am I.'
Fighter : ' I'm sorry. '
Kakyuu : ' You don't have to apologies Fighter. I can't witness your pain any
more . You may return to The Earth if you want. I'm going to choose a new leader for my warriors so you
can stay as long as you wish.'
Kakyuu handed Fighter a letter: ' This is a message for the moon princess. Give it to her in person.'
Fighter looked horrified. " I'm so scared." She thought " May be she has married her boyfriend by now.
I can't stand seeing her whit him.... but ....I can't survive without her."
Fighter : ' Princess, what an appearance should I have on the Earth? '
Kakyuu gave Fighter a sad smile: 'Use the appearance Usagi san is used to *********************************************************************
Surrounded by the darkness of the night, Usagi was alone on her balcony sadly gazing into the space, her
thoughts far away. She expelled her breath and shivered unconsciously. She hung her head and sighed.
She was so deeply in her painful thoughts that she didn't notice a dark figure was watching her from
below .
The figure stepped forward and leaped on the balcony But Usagi didn't even notice.
She jumped and gasped in terror when she felt a hand on her shoulder.
' Sorry I didn't mean to frighten you ' a familiar voice said.
Usagi turned round with disbelief and found Fighter standing beside her.
' Fighter! ' She said whit surprise and flung herself on the other girl squeezing her with all her power.
Fighter stood motionless for a few seconds then she freed herself gently from Usagi's grasp.
' Hey, take it easy Odango ' she said softly, holding Usagi's shoulders lightly.
Thy stared at each other for what seemed an eternity then Usagi grasped Fighter's hand and drew her
into her room.
Usagi : ' What are you doing here? When did you come back? '
Fighter smiled: 'I'm here to hand you a message from princess kakyuu and I have arrived a few
minutes ago.'
Usagi : ' I'm so glad to see you again. Oh, where are Healer and Maker? '
Fighter : ' They stayed with the princess. Don't you think that one person is enough to deliver a
message ? '
Usagi laughed: ' So, aren't you going to give it to me? '
Fighter handed her the letter in silence. Usagi opened it and began to read. She thought: " How strange!
This letter contains only greetings....Ah at least something beside greetings ...uum....Princess kakyuu
is asking me to take care of Fighter!! ..
..what ? Fighter wasn't feeling well recently and She was homesick for the Earth !....I can't believe it!"
Usagi looked into Fighters eyes: ' Do you know the contents of this letter? '
Fighter : 'No '
Usagi : ' Really not? '
Fighter shook her head.
Usagi smiled at her kindly: ' Well your princess has asked me to take good care of you ...and she
mentioned that you were missing Tokyo.'
Fighter blushed slightly: ' I don't want be a burden to you.'
Usagi : ' Baka ,..You're never a burden to any one. I'm so happy to have you
around . '
Fighter asked in a rather sad tone: ' Are you really Odango? ..... But I guess you won't have much time
left for me any way.'
Usagi yelled at Fighter: ' What do you mean? '
Fighter : ' Your spending all your time whit your boyfriend, right? '
Usagi : ' If I'm lucky enough to find a boyfriend I certainly will.'
Fighter gave her a strange look: ' What about ... Mamoru san? '
Usagi laughed: ' He is old history by now.' then she sighed: ' I treated him rather badly and I feel guilty
about it.'
Fighters' eyes lit up and she transformed herself to Seiya straightaway.
Seiya : ' Well...well ...Odango, so he had abandoned you! '
Usagi complained: ' You are rude! ' , Then she added angrily: ' And it was ME how broke up with him and
NOT vice versa! '
Seiya : ' Sorry about that. I was just teasing you. Come on tell me what happened.'
Usagi : ' It's rather a long story, do you really want to hear it? '
Seiya : ' Of course I want! '
******************************************************************
****
Usagi ended her story with a deep sigh and waited for Seiya's comment but to her surprise Seiya kept
silence .
Usagi : ' Seiya were you listening to me? '
Seyia nodded: ' You had my full attention Odango.'
Usagi : ' Then why are you so silent? '
Seiya : ' I 'm ....Um....I'm just a little tired. That's all.'
Usagi jumped with concern: ' Oh Seiya I'm so sorry. I should have noticed that you're exhausted from
Your long journey. Would you like to eat something? '
Seiya : ' No, thanks. I'd better go now.'
Usagi grasped his arm tightly: ' I don't let you go anywhere at this time. You'll stay here over night.'
Seiya : ' Won't your parents mind? '
Usagi imagined how kenji papa would react and got a sweat drop.
Usagi : ' They won't mind if you transform to Fighter.'
Seiya got a sweat drop: ' May be It's better if I go.'
Usagi yelled: ' NO, I DON'T LET YOU GO.YOUR PRINCESS ENTRUSTED YOUR SAFETY TO ME!!'
Seiya put his hands up: ' Ok, ok. You won! Fighter Star Power, make- up!'
Fighter scolded slightly: ' Satisfied? '
Usagi giggled merrily: ' For the moment.'
She put her hand on fighter's shoulder and said softly: ' You'd better take my bed.'
Fighter : ' And where you going to sleep? '
Usagi : ' Don't worry about me. Just go and get some sleep.'
Fighter : ' I won't let you be uncomfortable at my expense! '
Usagi : ' I'm quite comfortable on the floor.'
Fighter : ' then let change our places.'
Usagi : ' NO '
Fighter : ' That means you're not comfortable! '
Usagi protested hotly: ' I am! '
Fighter shook her head: ' We can share the bed.'
Usagi blushed deeply: ' Fighter! '
Fighter : ' I'm a girl, Remember? '
Usagi hesitated for a moment." I can sleep on the sofa." She thought. But she wanted to stay near
Fighter.
She blushed even more as she was announcing her agreement.
She opened her Odangoes and brushed her hair, then she tight it whit pink ribbons.
Fighter was watching her whit amazement: ' You have nice hair ' she murmured sleepily and made
room for Usagi.

****************************************************************** ****
Fighter woke up in Usagi's room. For a short instance She was surprised finding herself there, then
she remembered every thing and expelled her breath with relief.
She smiled as she found Usagi's head resting on her chest and her small body nestled in her embrace.
For a long time she kept still just taking in each second and wishing for this moment to last for ever
then she sat up in the bed and shook Usagi gently: ' Hey, Odango chan wake up! Wake up! '
Usagi murmured: ' Just five more minutes.'
Fighter laughed: ' I don't let you sleep anymore.'
Usagi flung her eyes open and gazed with surprise into fighter's blue eyes: ' Ah! so it wasn't a dream.'
She jumped out of her bed and stretched her body.
Fighter asked teasingly: ' Late for school? '
Usagi : ' No, I haven't been at school for weeks. '
Then she smiled: ' I have to repeat this class anyway, so why bother? '
Fighter glanced at her sharply but didn't say anything.
She thought: " No Odango chan, I can't allow you to waste our time."
****************************************************************** ****
Ikuko mamma entered Usagi's room with tea and snakes. She looked at Seiya and thought: " I can't
believe that Kenji likes him so much. He never approved young men coming here and he was never nice
to Mamoru but he really enjoys Seiya's company. It seems that I'm the only one who prefers Mamoru
to him."
Ikuko mamma forced herself to smile: ' Did you two enjoy yourself today? '
Usagi : ' Of course, it's really nice to have fun instead of going to school.'
Ikuko mamma: ' Usagi chan I'm really worried about your studies.'
Usagi : ' Don't worry next year I'll make it.'
Seiya looked at her and smiled: ' Sorry Odango but you're going to school with me. I transferred to
your school again and I won't allow you to waste your time at home.'
Usagi yelled at him: ' I'm not going to school.'
Ikuko mamma said gravely: ' You will go to school whit Seiya.' and left the room .
Usagi began to cry.
Seiya looked at her seriously: ' Sorry Odango but I won't lose this time.'
Usagi complained: ' But I hate school.'
Seiya smiled naughtily: ' Cheer up. who knows may be this is your last year at school.'

****************************************************************** **********
Usagi and Seiya were studying at Seiya's flat. Usagi was feeling very proud as she had solved
12 questions correctly by herself. Seiya patted Usagi on her Odangoes and gave her a sheet
of paper with 12 new questions .
Usagi began to cry: ' You are cruel to me. I'm tired. '
Seiya looked at her and said: ' Ok Odango, you can have a break.'
Usagi sighed with relief: ' Can I have a cup of tea? '
Seiya nodded: ' I'll make you some.'
When he left the room Usagi asked herself: ' Why is he so serious about my studies? '
Usagi had a flash back
*[ Usagi was with Ami and Seiya.
Ami : ' I don't believe it. You got a 69 at your test! '
Seiya : ' She'll do better next time.'
Ami Shook her head: ' That's impossible Seiya kun! '
Seiya : ' You will see '.]*
She thought: " Seiya is a very Patient but serious teacher. "
****************************************************************** *********
Usagi was at the Hikawa temple. She was very happy. For her, life was once more consummate and
complete or at least almost complete. Rei was really relived to see Usagi so cheerful and vital .
Rei : ' You're spending a lot of time whit Seiya kun.'
Usagi nodded silently.
Rei looked at her with interest: ' You love him don't you? '
Usagi blushed and nodded again.
Rei : 'Usagi! Why don't you say anything? '
Usagi lowered her gaze: ' I don't know any thing about his feelings. Rei chan do you think he loves me? '
Rei looked at her with disbelief: ' What a stupid question! Didn't you tell him about your feelings? '
Usagi shook her head: ' No.'
Rei : ' Why? '
Usagi : ' I don't want to lose him.'
Rei : ' Usagi! '
Usagi smiled: ' We have such a marvelous time together. Oh Rei, I'll die if he leaves me.'
Rei hugged her: ' He won't. He loves you. I'm Completely sure ... Believe me.'
Usagi : ' Thank you Rei chan. Thank you. '
****************************************************************** *********
Fighter hugged Usagi gently and whispered: ' Well Odongo chan what's on your mind? '
Usagi looked into Fighters eyes and swallowed hard. Fighter saw the faire in her eyes and smiled
encouragingly .
When Usagi stayed over night at Seiya's flat she asked him to transform into Fighter and Fighter had
learned to her amazement that Usagi likes her a lot. She was spending a lot of time with Usagi but she
had never seen her so worried before.
Fighter took Usagi's hands as their gaze met.
Usagi became very pale: ' I want to ask you something ... but .. promise me that you won't transform ..'
Fighter looked concerned: ' I'll promise.'
Usagi lifted her head and said in a shaky voice: ' Once you told Saturn that you did like
me .... well... Do you still like me? '
Fighter felt a sudden pain in her stomach. She looked at Usagi seriously. Usagi's lips were trembling
and her eyes were filled whit tears. Fighter could see a mixture of hope and fear in Usagi's face.
She smiled at her fondly and said: ' I still like you.'
Usagi hugged her arm: ' Really? '
Fighter struck her Odangoes: ' Yes really.'
Usagi hugged her hard. Fighter broke the huge and leaned forward. she gazed into Usagi's eyes
: ' You're not playing with me Odango, are you? '
Usagi burst into tears. She jumped and ran toward the door. Fighter ran after her. She grasped Usagi's
arm and turned her toward herself. Usagi buried her face in Fighter chest and began to sob faintly.
Fighter pressed usagi to her chest and began stroking her hair.
' I'm sorry ' she whispered into Usagi's ear: ' I'm so sorry.'
After a few minutes Usagi stopped crying and freed herself from Fighter's embrace.
Fighter took Usagi's hand and said: ' We have to talk Odango.'
Usagi made no replay. Fighter sighed, her expression unhappy. She looked at Usagi with tears in her eyes.
Usagi put her hands on Fighter's shoulders and said softly: ' It's ok Fighter. Cheer up.'
Fighter bit her lip: ' So you'll listen to me? '
Usagi nodded.
Fighter looked troubled: ' Can I transform? '
Usagi blushed.
Fighter was getting nervous: ' Please Usagi chan! '
She got butterflies in her stomach waiting for Usagi's answer.

Usagi became a little bit more red: ' Do it if you must.'
Fighter expelled her breath with relive: ' Thank you Odango.'
She transformed into Seiya instantaneously.
Seiya faced Usagi with a smile: ' Once I told you that I wished I could have met you sooner and you
asked me why? ! Remember? '
Usagi : ' Uhm.'
Seiya : ' That day I couldn't tell you how much I loved you but now I want to let you know my true
feelings . '
He took a deep breath and reached out to cup Usagi's face then he started to crass her cheeks.
He leaned forward and kissed her softly.
Suddenly Usagi felt very Shy. She stepped back blushing: ' I thought we were going to
talk ! '
Seiya chuckled: ' Don't worry, you're quite safe ...with ...me.'
He went close to her, his eyes holding hers, their message strong and clear. Usagi looked at him with
hearts in her eyes. Seiya lifted her chin and kissed her gently. Usagi kissed him back thinking
: " Mamo chan's kisses never felt like this. It's dangerous, I'm losing my control."
Then she looked at him and whispered : ' Seiya please transform .'
Seiya pleaded : ' please give me another chance Odango .'
Usagi sighed : ' only if you promise to behave properly .'
Seiya smiled : ' I promise I'll try .'
Usagi sat down : ' Ok . Can we talk now ?'
Seiya nodded : ' yes .'
****************************************************************** **********
It was early in the morning. Rei was outside the temple enjoying the sunrise when she heard Usagi's
voice . She turned round in surprise and saw Usagi and Seiya coming toward her. She greeted them
and asked: ' What are you doing here? Is something wrong? '
Usagi giggled merrily and whispered in Rei's ear: ' I want you to be the first to know, I'm going to
marry Seiya.'
Seiya smiled naughtily: ' Can we have a fortune telling? '
Rei said angrily: ' So that's why you're here! '
Usagi and Seiya got sweat drops on their heads.
Usagi laughed: ' No, no ... we ...er.. we..well ..we were passing by ..and ..'
Rei : ' PASSING BY ! AT THIS TIME !'
Seiya grasped Rei's arm and said thoughtfully: ' Please Rei chan, we need your help. We were talking
the whole night and we decided to get married as soon as possible but I don't know how to persuade
Odango's parents and .... Well ... I must return to ... um ...work ...and this time I'm alone ... '
Rei's expression softened: ' Ok then. Fallow me.'
****************************************************************** **********
Usagi, the other four girls and Naru were at the Crown Parlor. Usagi was playing with a sheaf of tickets
waving them around proudly when she felt a hand on her shoulder. She looked over her shoulder and
smiled : ' Haruka san! Michiru san! How nice to see you.'
Haruka asked mockingly: ' Are you having a concert? '
Usagi answered proudly: ' Seiya is having one.'
Haruka said sarcastically: ' I see! The tickets had not been sold and now you are trying to get ride of them and find some audience for him.'
Usagi shouted angrily: ' The tickets are sold out. I saved this ones for my best friends.'
Haruka scowled: ' You saved them? It seems that you have got very close to this Seiya! '
Minako smiled: ' I guess you didn't hear the news.'
Michiru : ' Oh, are you hiding something from us? '
Usagi blushed and Rei said pleasantly: ' Don't tell me that Usagi didn't invite you to her wedding! '
Haruka and Michiru asked in a shocked voice: ' Her wedding? '
Usagi got very very red: ' It's too soon for formal invitations. '
Michiru asked softly: ' And when is your wedding? '
Usagi lowered her gaze cutely, covering her burning cheeks with her hands: ' At my birthday.'
Michiru smiled: ' Yes, it's too soon to send invitations.'
Haruka asked rudely: ' And who is the groom? '
Every body got sweat drops: ' Seiya of course! ! '
Haruka's expression hardened. She said rather nastily: ' Well, congratulation Odango! ' and left.
Michiru looked hurt: ' I'm terribly sorry Usagi chan. Haruka is rather in a bad mood today. She didn't mean to be rude.'
Usagi didn't say any thing and michiru saw the tears in her eyes and felt really sorry for
her.
Michiru ran after haruka calling her name. She caught Haruka up and asked
sadly : ' You love her that much? '
Haruka said sulkily: ' Don't be silly. I just like her.'
Michiru : ' So much to become jealous? '
Haruka : ' I'm not jealous. I simply don't want her to marry Seiya. '
Michiru : ' Haruka! '
Haruka : ' Sorry Michiru but I don't like him and I won't allow him to marry Odango.'
Michiru grabbed Haruka's arm and said drily: ' You better choose between me and her.'
Haruka was shocked: ' Michiru! '
Michiru : ' Well? '
Haruka hanged her head: ' Michiru, I'm sorry. I don't know why I acted like that.'
Michiru : ' You must apology to her ! '
Haruka sighed deeply .
****************************************************************** **********
Usagi opened her eyes and said: ' Today is June 30th. '
She reached out for Luna and shook her violently: ' Wake up you lazy cat. Wake up.'
Luna began to complain: ' Are you crazy? You're killing me.'
Usagi : ' Today is June 30th Luna. Do you hear me? '
Luna : 'Calm down Usagi chan. '
Usagi began to dance: ' Today is the most important day in my life.'
Luna : ' I can't blame you. It's a miracle that your father gave in ... '
Usagi : ' Seiya did very well. He is Japan's most popular idol and he is really rich AND he did it only for
my sake. Oh Luna I'm so happy! '
Luna : ' When you broke up with Mamoru I thought that it was a mistake but now I see it was the wisest
act in your whole life.'
Usagi smiled.
****************************************************************** **********
Haruka closed her eyes with pain as she heard Usagi saying: ' Yes I will.'
She felt a hand on her shoulder and heard Michiru whispering in her ear: ' Control yourself Haruka.
Healer is watching you.'
Haruka filled her lungs with air and managed to smile. She glanced at Michiru who was standing beside
her and grabbed her hand, and put it in: ' Jealous? '
Michiru smiled faintly: ' May be! '
Haruka squeezed Michiru's hand gently and Michiru squeezed her hand in return. She glanced in
Healer's direction and saw that she was studying her with amusement. Their green eyes met for an
instant . Haruka shivered feeling Healer had seen deep into her soul. She ignored Healer and turned
her gaze toward Usagi. She was happily chatting whit Seiya as if she hadn't seen him for years. Seiya's
eyes were shining with happiness as he listened to her carefully. Haruka said: ' Our princess looks
very nice, don't you think so
Michiru? '
Michiru smiled: ' They make a lovely couple.'
Haruka congratulated Usagi and kissed her on the cheek. Seiya became very jealous and Haruka smiled
with triumph .
****************************************************************** **********
The young couple were surrounded by reporters. Usagi was very nervous and clung to Seiya's arm
helplessly. Seiya looked at the reporters: ' Excuse me! Could you please let us pass? We already have
answered all your questions.'
All the reporters began to ask new questions at the same time. Usagi looked a little frightened.
Seiya whispered in her ear: ' Don't worry. I'll take care of that.' He faced the reporters with a grave
expression : ' I won't answer your questions anymore. We are tired and need some rest. You're annoying us! Go away and let us pass.'
The reporter didn't move.
Seiya : ' You'd better go and let us enter OUR OWN APARTMENT or you'll be in trouble. You know what I mean! '
Seiya broke through the reporters and turned the key savagely in the lock and pushed the door open then he swept Usagi into his arms and carried her inside kicking the door so that it shut behind him. The cameras flashed madly and then the
reporters were standing behind a closed door. He put Usagi gently down and asked with concern
: ' Odango, Are you ok? '
Usagi nodded faintly and sat on the floor.
Seiya kneeled down beside her: ' Are you sure? '
Usagi nodded again.
Seiya hugged her: ' Would you like some coffee or something? '
Usagi shook her head. They looked at each other in silence, both uncomfortable and blushing.
Seiya helped her get up: ' It's ok Odango. Don't worry. '
He held her in his arms and said teasingly: ' Tonight I won't transform.'
Usagi felt a sudden pain in her stomach and looked at him with wide eyes. Seiya smiled kindly: ' Don't
Worry Odango. I'm quite capable of understanding a girl's feelings ...you know that. Right? '
He lifted her chin and kissed her deeply. Usagi blushed and clung to him.
****************************************************************** **********
The young couple were at the airport. Usagi was very excited because they were going to Europe for
their honeymoon. Seiya put a protective arm around Usagi: ' Here I met you for the first time and from
then on, I found myself constantly thinking about you and feeling that I could only be happy with you.'
He pressed her against himself: ' I'm so happy.'
Usagi smiled and leaned her head against his shoulder.
Seiya heard the announcer calling their flight number: ' It's time, lets go.'
Usagi hugged his arm and giggled happily.
Inside the plan Usagi said softly: ' Once you protected me during a flight.'
Seiya put his arm around her: ' I'll always protect you.'
Usagi looked at him shyly: ' Thank you for coming back Seiya.'
Seiya took her hands: ' Thank you for accepting my love.'
****************************************************************** **********
Healer and Maker were at the Hikawa shrine talking with the inners. Although this time they had
returned as girls, the inners were spending all their free time with them.
Ami : ' Have you to leave so soon? '
Healer : ' The princess is waiting for us.'
Maker : ' It was really kind of her to let us come.'
Makoto : ' Lets have a good bye party tonight.'
Healer and Maker : ' Ok.'
Minako faced Healer: ' Can we talk in privet? I'll need your advice. '
Healer nodded and followed Minako.
Minako lowered her voice: ' A film director had asked me to an audition for a TV show. Oh Healer! It's
my dream. I don't want To fail. Please tell me what to do.'
Healer studied her for a few minutes: ' I think you can make it if you follow my
instruction . '
****************************************************************** **********
Mamoru shook his head and sighed, his face was pale and stricken. He got an E-mail from Ami that
informed him about Usagi's marriage.
He tugged his tie unconsciously: ' Usako! I feel really jealous. Jealous of that guy who is your husband.'
He touched his forehead: ' I was happy with you but I didn't notice that until it was too late... I was such
an arrogant fool ... I took you for granted ... I never paid serious attention to you ... And I was never there
when you needed me most. I should never have left you alone .'
****************************************************************** **********
Usagi nestled herself comfortably into Seiya's embrace and took a seep of his wine: ' Umm ... I like it.'
Seiya smiled and put the glass to her lips. She took another seep: ' I must be careful. I get drunk
rapidly . '
Sieya looked at her with surprise: ' when did you get drunk? '
Usagi laughed: ' The first time, I was hardly 14 . I was on a dinner party at the D Kingdom Embassy. I
Drank a glass of liquor thinking it was juice. '
Seiya laughed heartily: ' I wish I had been there. '
Usagi : ' even if you had been there, You probably wouldn't have recognized me.'
Seiya : ' And why wouldn't I have recognized you? '
Usagi smiled: ' Because I used my transformation pen.'
Seiya looked puzzled: ' I don't get it.'
Usagi put a soft kiss on his cheek: ' I'll show you.'
She pulled out her transformation pen and smiled naughtily: ' Moon power transform me into a smart,
good looking guy.'
Seiya couldn't believe his eyes. He had such a funny expression on his face that Usagi burst in to
laughter .
Usagi turned round in front of a large mirror: ' Well I make a nicer guy then you.'
Seiya was shocked: ' You're not serious! '
Usagi chuckled: ' Bet that I can pick up any girl in no time? '
Seiya jumped and rushed toward Usagi and grasped Usagi's hand: ' I won't let you do that.'
Usagi grinned and started pulling Seiya's ponytail: ' Hey, I'm a girl ev....'
Seiya interrupted Usagi: ' And so am...'. Suddenly he got silent and covered his mouth.
Usagi gave him a sharp look: ' Continue! '
Seiya mumbled: ' I.... forgot...'
Usagi : ' Seiya don't lie to me '
Seiya hanged his head: ' Ok Odango. I'll tell you every thing.'
He swallowed painfully: ' I must confess that this isn't the appearance which I had on my planet. When
Galaxia attacked Kinmoku we couldn't defeat her and princess Kakyuu fled to the Earth and we followed
her . We came to the Earth disguised as boys because in order to find a woman on the Earth, that was the
best appearance. We used to be girls and we didn't love anybody except our princess. Then I saw you and
I fall in love with you immediately .... Well you know the rest of it ... I know I should have told you.. but I
was so scared ...scared that you wouldn't accept me knowing the truth ... Odango I'm a male now, A real
male even if I was born as a female ... Odango? '
Usagi hesitated a little: ' Seiya ...could you ...? I mean ..I like to see how ...'
A single tear rolled down Seiya's face then he detransformed to her real self.
Usagi was surprised to see how beautiful Seiya was. Usagi thought: " You can see that she is sailor star
Fighter ...but she is much more beautiful and less aggressive."
Seiya was struggling to hold back her tears. Her blue eyes were dulled with pain. She asked Usagi in a
faint shaky voice: ' Are you going to leave me? '
She fell to her knees and began to sob, her hands coming up to hide her face. Usagi rushed to her and
gently brought her to stand up, not bothering to detransform. Usagi's arms enfolded her: ' Shhh, It's
All right. Don't cry. It breaks my heart to see you suffering like this.'
Seiya clung to Usagi: ' Don't leave me Odango. I won't survive without you.'
Usagi held her tight: ' Don't worry. I'll never leave you Seiya. Never.'
Seiya pressed her face against Usagi's chest murmuring: ' You forgot to detransform.'
Usagi kissed her wet cheek: ' I know... Dose my appearance bother you? '
Seiya shook her head. Usagi began to play with her ponytail: ' Lets use this appearance for a short time.
It will be fun.'
****************************************************************** **********
Seiya flung her eyes open and found herself in Usagi's embrace. She remembered what had happened
the night before and flushed violently. She gazed at Usagi and noticed that she had detransformed.
Very gently she leaned on one elbow and gazed at Usagi who was still asleep. Seiya felt a rush of love
sweeping over her and she kissed Usagi's forehead softly. Usagi opened her eyes and blushed deeply
: ' Seiya? '
Seiya felt a wave of hot color enveloping her face and she covered it with her hands. Usagi said in a very
low voice: ' I'm sorry Seiya. I ...'
Seiya shook her head: ' You don't have to apologize. It's ok.'
Usagi smiled teasingly: ' Yeah after all we're married ... And you look really sweet when you blush.'
Then she leaned forward and said softly: ' Seiya, I want you to know that you can detransform to your
real self any time you feel like doing so.'
Seiya smiled: ' Thank you Odongo. I'll remember that.'
****************************************************************** **********
Seiya was laying in bed, his eyes wide open. He could hear Usagi's soft breathing who was sleeping
peacefully in his embrace. Very gently he tried to slip out of the bed. Usagi stirred and opened her eyes.
she sat up in bed and asked anxiously: ' Seiya what's wrong? '
Seiya stroked her hair: ' Nothing, Go back to sleep.'
Usagi tangled her arms around him: ' There is something different about you. Seiya Please tell me
what's bothering you?'
Seiya looked at her with a mixture of love and pain: ' Do you remember the night you showed me your
transformation pen? '
Usagi smiled: ' Of ours! '
Seiya looked troubled: ' Well I ... er.. I don't know how to say it. You wont mind if I transform, will you? '
Usagi : ' No, why should I? '
Seiya transformed into her real self instantaneously.
Usagi got up and turned the light on then she sat beside Seiya hugging her gently: ' What are you afraid
of ? '
Seiya swallowed hard: ' Usagi.. I ...I happen to be pregnant.'
Usagi recovered from the shock rapidly. She looked at Seiya's slender figure with surprised putting her
hands gently on the swelling mound of her stomach. She looked into Seiya's eyes and murmured
: ' Our baby ... Oh Seiya I 'm so happy.'
Seiya covered Usagi's hands whit hers: ' Don't you mind? '
Usagi giggled happily: ' Of cures not. I'm so glad that we will have a baby.'
Seiya bit her lip: ' But who should I face the others? '
Usagi smiled kindly: ' Leave it to me.' Then she added teasingly: ' Hey where is your famous
self confidences? '
Seiya looked into her eyes: ' Odango I don't fear any thing but losing you.'
Usagi blushed: ' Seiya! '
Seiya hanged her head: ' Usagi chan, ... when I returned I told my self that because on Earth I was a guy
in my normal appearance, you could accept me as one . So when you asked me about my real self I got
shocked . I was worried about what you were feeling. After our marriage my love for you became so deep
and strong that I knew I would die without you. I was afraid of losing you. I was happy and relived when
you said that you would never leave me and I felt so secure in your arms that I allowed myself to sweep
away on a tide of love and desire ...
um... the next day when I woke in your embrace I noticed that you had detrasformed and I knew I had to
transform . I decided not to use my female appearance anymore but I was happy that I had been yours ...
however recently I felt the urge to use my old appearance, I fought this strange feeling as long as I could
but at the end I detransformed while taking a shower. Suddenly I saw a bright light flashing...and I
knew that I was pregnant. I didn't know what would you say to that ... After all I'm your husband and not
your wife!'
Usagi hugged her very gently as if she was made of porcelain: ' Don't worry Kou chan, I love you.'
" May be If these things had happened last year, I would have reacted differently." She thought secretly.
Then she looked at Seiya who was about to transform and stopped her
: ' No Seiya, I won't let you transform. Not, if it isn't necessary. '
Seiya was almost her cool self again: ' And how should I perform on my concerts? '
Usagi yelled out: ' You must cancel your concerts.'
Seiya shook her head: ' Don't worry Odango. I'll be all right. '
****************************************************************** **********
Minako went into the Crown Game Center. Motoki greeted her cheerfully, Minako smiled warmly and
sat behind the wheels of a racing game. She began to speed up until she was driving at full speed.
' You're doing very well ' a familiar voice said from behind her.
Minako turned her head: ' Haruka san! '
' Watch out! ' Haruka said. But it was too late. Minako crushed.
Haruka laughed: 'Never let any thing distract you.' Then she asked playfully: ' Can I race against you? '
They played for a long time. After the race Minako said: ' It's always the same.'
Haruka said: ' You got much better.'
Minako smiled: ' Thank you Haruka san. '
Haruka asked casually: 'Have you seen Odango Atama recently? '
Minako shook her head: ' No.We haven't seen much of her since she left the school.'
Haruka scowled: ' You mean since her wedding? '
' Hai ' said Minako reluctantly ' Usagi and Seiya kun are inseparable. '
Haruka said seriously: ' I'm worried about her. It's not like Usagi to forget her friends.'
Minako sighed: ' Every thing had changed Haruka san. We have returned to our normal lives. There
isn't any new enemy and no need for scout meetings. Ami is busy with her studies, and I guess sooner
or later she'll go to Germany. Mako chan is spending her time in Karate classes and house holding
courses and Rei chan is enjoying her free time. It seems that our ways had separated.'
' And what about you Neko chan? ' Haruka asked.
Minako smiled sadly: ' Well actually I got a small part in a T.V. show, so I'm either at the T.V. station or
here . '
Haruka draped her arm casually over Minako's shoulders: ' I always admired the friendship between
you guys and I'm sure it's too strong to be broken like this. You avoid each other because you're missing
Usagi but escaping the truth wont help you. You must find out why does Usagi avoid you. It's the only
solution .'
Minako's eyes filled with tears: ' You are right. Usagi's friendship is the most important thing to us.
without her we're lonely and unsatisfied and I know that she cares for us very much. Thank you
Haruka san.'
The next day Minko convinced Ami, Makoto and Rei to go to Usagi's apartment.
' Why should we go there? ' Rei complained.
Minako asked: ' Are you scared? '
' Of what? ' Snapped Rei.
Minako : ' Losing her friendship.'
' I don't care.' Rei yelled out.
Makoto said: ' That means that you care too much.'
Rei answered angrily: ' No, I don't care at all. I just want to tell Usagi what I'm thinking about her.'
Every body: ' Rei chan. ! '
They reached Usagi's apartment and Ami put her finger on the bell looking at Rei anxiously.
The door opened and Rei was about to say something horrible when she noticed Usagi's condition. She
gasped and hugged Usagi gently: ' You idiot! Why didn't you tell us !' Usagi blushed and let them in.
The girls gazed with surprise at Usagi. Usagi mumbled under her breath: ' Please don't look at me. I
know how huge and grotesque I've become.'
Minako asked in a shocked voice: ' Is that why did you avoid us? '
Usagi's face became a deep shade of red as she lowered her gaze: ' Not exactly.'
' Then what's the matter? ' Asked Rei with real concern.
Usagi hesitated a little, then she looked at her friends and made her decision. She began to tell them
every thing.
When she finished, Rei asked: ' Why didn't you trust us? '
Usagi said in a very low voice: ' It wasn't my secret ...and Seiya is my husband ...and our situation was
rather complicated.'
The girls agreed in union.
Ami asked concerned: ' Dose your mother know? '
Usagi lifted her head rapidly: ' Only about me.'
Minako said sympathetically: ' It must be hard to hide this from her.'
Usagi nodded: ' I told her that I would give birth to twins. '
Minako smiled: ' Well I bet Artemis doesn't know that. It's a good thing that Luna stayed with your
family.. .'
Rei interrupted her: ' Luna didn't stay there deliberately. Usagi simply didn't take her with her.'
' And who is cooking for you? ' Asked Makoto.
' Kou chan ' whispered Usagi.
Minako said: ' Well from now on we're taking care of you.'
A sweat drop appeared on usagi's head.
Minako took Usagi's hand: ' Usagi chan I don't want to upset you , but , Haruka san was worried about
you and I think she'll visit you soon .'
Minako was right. A couple of days later, Haruka and Michiru came to visit her. Haruka was amused
seeing Usagi's condition and began to teas her. Michiru smiled kindly and offered to help her but Usagi
refused politely not wanting to betray Seiya. Michiru gave haruka a sharp look and haruka nodded,
both of them sensed that Usagi was hiding something from them.
Haruka asked politely where Seiya was and Usagi said that he was out on busyness. haruka and Michiru
exchanged looks. Feeling Seiya's energy they wondered what was
wrong . When Michiru was talking with Usagi, Haruka sneaked around searching for Seiya.
Michiru and Usagi were deep in conversation when they heard angry voices.
Usagi screamed: ' Seiya! ' And jumped up. Seeing Usagi's worried expression Michiru ran as fast as she
could to prevent Haruka from doing something harsh. Usagi followed her worrying about Seiya. She
heard Haruka shouting: ' I should never have allowed her to marry you.'
Seiya's answer was short: ' Get lost.'
Usagi flung herself between Seiya and Haruka: ' HARUKA SAN STOP IT!'
She turned and put her arms gently around Seiya's shoulders, holding her protectively: 'Are you ok ?'
Seiya said firmly: ' It's ok Odango . Leave it to me .'
Usagi pleaded: ' Please Seiya, calm down. For my sake.'
She turned to face Haruka and Michiru. Michiru was holding Haruka in a restricting grasp, her
expression still puzzled.
' And who is the father of that bastard? ' Haruka snapped.
Seiya Was about to punch Haruka When Usagi ran between them once more. She saw Michiru
struggling to keep Haruka still and yelled out: ' I'm responsible for that. I misused my transformation
pen . '
The two older girls were shocked.' What? ' They asked, not understanding what she means. Usagi
looked into Seiya's eyes: ' Please calm down Seiya.There are other ways then fighting.'
Michiru murmured in Haruka's ear: ' Have you finished fighting? '
' Yes ' Haruka said through clenched teeth.
Usagi began to explain the situation in an impersonal manner, skipping details.
****************************************************************** **********
' We arrived. I wonder if princess Kakyuu's strange dreams have a meaning.' Maker said.
' There is only one way to find out.' Healer answered. Then she added angrily: ' Fighter is really
causing us a lot of trouble.'
Maker looked at her thoughtfully: ' It isn't her fault that our princess had strange dreams and got
worried about her.'
' Oh isn't it? ' Healer said sarcastically ' She should have stayed with us.'
Maker gave her a balanced look: 'You're missing her, don't you? '
Healer answered in a mean ton: ' Of curs not. Why should I miss that idiot ? '
Maker shook her head and sighed: ' What's the matter with you? '
Healer lifted her head and gazed at the stars sparkling in the night sky. After a long time she answered
: ' I just hate it to get exhausted for her sake.'
Maker smiled: ' You should say, his sake.'
Healer yelled out angrily: ' Shut up.' Her large green eyes filling with tears.
Maker said softly: ' Please understand, Seiya is happy this way.'
******************************************************************

Makoto and Minako were at Usagi's apartment. Makoto was in the kitchen preparing dinner and Minako
was chatting with Usagi and Seiya when they heard the door bell. Minako jumped to her feet: ' I'll open it.'
Makoto said from the kitchen: ' Ami chan must have forgotten that today is our turn to take care of you.'
Usagi giggled: ' You talk as if we were babies. We can perfectly take care of ourselves. Right Kou chan? '
A sarcastical voice said from behind: ' I don't think so.'
Usagi looked over her shoulder: ' Healer! ... Maker ! '
She tried to rise from her place but Maker stopped her, smiling kindly : ' What a surprise! how are
you doing Usagi san ? '
Usagi flashed and lowered her gaze looking very embraced. Maker laughed heartily at her reaction.
Seiya looked with discomfort at her fellow star lights. Healer's gaze was fixed on Seiya's stomach and
she couldn't stop laughing.
Seiya asked harshly: ' What are you doing here? '
Maker asked teasingly: ' Aren't you happy to see us? ' and went to hug her friend .
Healer shook her head in disbelief, still laughing: ' Well ...well... You were the last person in the whole
universe that I could imagine being pregnant.'
She asked Usagi mockingly: ' How did you manege that? '
Usagi covered her face with her hands and Seiya said angrily: ' Leave her in peace.'
Healer looked surprised: ' Ok, don't get upset.'

Makoto and Minako were in the kitchen. Minako whispered: ' I'd told them every thing... before I let
them in ... but I think ... we should give them time ... I mean ..'
Makoto said kindly: ' It's ok Minako chan...we will stay here for a while . I have a good Idea, You can
help me to make some gorgeous dessert.
****************************************************************** **********
' It's pretty late. ' Minako said aloud as she left the T.V. station. She sighed and looked around
hesitatingly ." I wish Artemis were with me. " She taught. Exactly at that moment , Haruka came by in
her yellow sports car.
' Can I take you anywhere? ' She asked charmingly as she opened the passenger door. Minako got in
and thanked her happily.
Haruka smiled: ' Ok Minako chan, where are you going? '
Minako laughed: ' Oh didn't I tell you? To Usagi's of course.'
' At this time? 'Haruka was shocked.
Minako nodded: ' Yeah, Healer and Maker are staying with Usagi chan and Seiya san and I'm sure they
are still awake.'
Haruka frowned: ' And what are they doing here? '
Minako smiled: ' They're taking care of Seiya san ....and Usagi chan. And I must say that they are a
great help ... I mean we can't stay the whole time whit Usagi ... '
Haruka sighed with pain: ' It's our duty to take care of our princess ...BUT ... She won't see me. The last time we met, She got pretty upset at me ... '
Minako felt sorry for Haruka but she didn't say anything.
****************************************************************** **********
Minako talked with Healer looking wistfully at her." I wish she had returned as a
male. " She thought " But it's obvious that she'll never change into a male again. She is such a lovely
girl , I'm sure that She really suffered when she had been forced to disguise herself as a boy."
'Something wrong? ' Healer asked rudely. Minako flashed as she noticed she was staring at Healer.
' Sorry, I was ... just admiring the way you put on make up. ' she lied.
' Liar! ' Healer's green eyes met her's.
Minako lowered her gaze: ' I'm really sorry Healer.'
Healer said in a very mean ton: ' I'm not interested in girls.'
Minako jumped to her feet and ran into the kitchen where Makoto, Rei and Maker were preparing
dinner . She sank to her knees, sobbing violently. Rei rushed to her side: ' what happened? '
Minako didn't answer.
Makoto whispered worriedly: ' It's not often that Minako cries.'
Maker left them silently and joined the others.
****************************************************************** **********
Seiya and Usagi were teasing each other when Seiya gasped and became silent . Usagi leaned forward
worriedly : ' Kou chan, are you Ok? '
Seiya smiled reassuringly: ' Yes ... I.. just thought ... um .. forget it Odango.'
Ami and Maker exchanged glances. Ami went into the kitchen and maker glanced toward Healer and
winked .
During the next couple of hours Seiya was unnaturally quiet. Then suddenly her eyes widened with
horror and a faint scream escaped her lips.
Usagi looked alarmed. Rei took her hands: ' Don't worry Usagi, She'll be fine.'
Ami smiled: ' I'll call the midwife.'
Healer and maker carried Seiya to her bedroom. Usagi ran after them, Rei tried to stop her but she
didn't succeed.
Seiya clutched the bed sheets in her hands trying to prevent herself from screaming, not wanting to
scare Usagi. She was breathing harshly gasping for air and her forehead was covered with sweat.
Then the midwife came and asked the girls to leave the room.
' Can't I stay? ' Usagi pleaded.
The midwife shook her head: ' You're the last person I want to see here.'
Healer led Usagi out. Maker closed the door behind them and said with determination : ' I'll stay with
her .'
Usagi was walking around the room nervously and worrying about Seiya when she heard Seiya's shrill
screams . Suddenly she got scared and started to cry and scream.
Rei grabbed her hand: ' Don't worry Usagi ...'
Usagi screamed: ' I don't want to go through this. I'm scared.'
Ami tried to calm her but Usagi kept on screaming hysterically.
Ami looked worried: ' She is under heavy stress. It could be dangerous. We'd better take her to the hospital.'
******************************************************************
**********
Seiya opened her beautiful blue eyes and tried to get up but Healer who was sitting near by, set her gently
back down: ' No, don't move Fighter. You must rest. '
Seiya was mildly surprised by Healer's gentle attitude but she felt too weak to say anything. She
wondered how long it would take for her to recover her strength and go back to normal life.
She smiled faintly as she remembered that in her case normal life means being a male.
Then Maker came to Seiya's bedside with a baby in her arms. Carefully she lied the baby down beside
Seiya : ' It's a boy.'
Seiya turned her head to look at her baby and smiled. Then she asked softly: ' Where is Usagi? '
Healer answered: ' Don't worry about her. she is all right.'
Seiya sat up in the bed and asked nervously: ' Where is she? What are you hiding from
me ? '
Maker sat down on the bed beside her and looked into her
eyes : ' Telling the truth she went through premature labor last night but don't worry Fighter both
Usagi san and her baby are fine.'
Seiya struggled to get up but Maker grasped her shoulders and forced her to lay down: ' You're not
going anywhere. Try and get some sleep.'
' But Usagi ... ' Seiya moaned.
'Go to sleep ' Maker said firmly ' Just rest.'
When Seiya woke up again she was surprised to see that Healer was still sitting near her bed watching
her . She sat up and looked into Healer's green eyes: ' I must get up. Usagi needs me.' Her voice was
calm but dead serious.
' Save your strength. Your Odango will be here soon.' Healer said mockingly ' Ami called us from the
hospital ... They're on their way. '
Seiya laid back among the pillows and smiled unconsciously.
Healer began to laugh: ' You're such a baby.'
****************************************************************** **********
' It's good to be home.' Usagi said shakily from the doorway. Maker smiled and greeted her warmly.
Usagi noticed the baby in Maker's arms and her eyes widened with amazement: ' Is that ...? '
Maker nodded: ' Yeah '
Usagi laughed softly and dropped a light kiss on the baby's forehead. Then she sighed: ' Why do I feel
so weak? '
Rei said angrily: ' You should have stayed at the hospital.'
Usagi shouted: ' But I heat hospitals.'
Before they had a chance to start fighting, Makoto helped Usagi to her room. Minako followed them
with Usagi's baby in her arms. When they entered the room, Usagi took the baby from Minako and
placed it into Seiya's arms.
Healer winked at the other two girls and silently they left the room.

Minako and Makoto were buying baby supplies when they ran into Haruka. Minako was excited to see
her and burst out with the news immediately. Haruka was surprised to hear that Usagi's baby was also born. She looked at the younger girls and asked grimly: ' Do you think Usagi will ever forgive me? '
Minako looked into her eyes: ' Only if you make your peace with Seiya kun.'
Haruka scowled and shook her head: ' It's hopeless.'
She walked away quickly without saying anything.
' I feel sorry for her.' Makoto said.
Minako said in a low voice: ' It's very hard for Usagi chan to see two people she loves fighting each other.
I wish we could do something ...'
They heard a high pitched voice saying: ' You can.'
Minako and Makoto turned: ' Healer ! '
'What are you doing here? ' Makoto asked.
Healer gave them one of her most charming smiles and said sweetly: ' I just wanted to talk with
Minako san ... in privet if possible.'
Minako hesitated briefly then she said: ' Ok.'
Healer asked politely: ' Would you like to go somewhere for tea? '
Minako felt a little uncomfortable but she answered: ' Yes, it would be nice.'
Makoto watched them leaving and smiled: ' I'm sure they'll make their peace.'
****************************************************************** ***********
Seiya looked at Healer with disbelief: ' You're not serious! '
Healer said rudely: ' Don't be so selfish Seiya. You know they like each other a lot.'
Seiya said angrily: ' And therefor I don't want her to hang around Usagi.'
Healer said sarcastically: ' OH ... SOOO JEALOUS? .'
Seiya said through clanged teeth: ' She is my Odango.'
' Then don't cause her pain.' Healer said firmly.
Seiya hanged his head and thought for a long time then he said reluctantly: ' You won. Tell Haruka she
can come and see Usagi.'
' You know I can't do that. We stayed here longer then necessary and princess Kakyuu will be getting
worried if we're not returning as soon as possible. You'd better ask Minako to tell her the news.'
Seiya said sincerely: ' We'll miss you.'
Healer grinned: ' You've become as emotional as your ODANGO '
Seiya said with mock anger: ' I would kill you If you were not a girl.'
Healer laughed: ' You have changed so much! '
****************************************************************** ***********
Haruka and Michiru were greeted warmly and soon they felt themselves at home. Michiru took one of
the babies in her arm and haruka followed Suit.
After a while Haruka asked teasingly: ' Which one is your baby Odango chan? '
Usagi yelled out: ' What do you mean? They're both mine.'
Haruka smiled naughtily: ' I mean Which one was born by you? '
Usagi said proudly: ' The one you're holding.'
Haruka smiled: ' I'm sure she is going to be as lovely as her mother.'
Usagi blushed and lowered her gaze.
' So Seiya had given birth to your son? ' Haruka asked mockingly and Usagi saw the haughty lift of her
brows and the glitter in her eyes.
' Haruka! ' Michiru said in a controlled voice.
Haruka caught and changed the subject. Later when they were on their way home Haruka said
mockingly: ' What would you say if I borrow Usagi's transformation pen Michiru san? '
Michiru smiled: ' what if I have one myself? Would you like to give birth to my baby? '
Haruka frowned: ' I don't like babies.'
Michiru said softly: ' But you just wished for..'
Haruka interrupted her: ' Forget it. I don't like the idea.'
Michiru laughed: ' Worried? '
Haruka : ' May be! '
Michiru : ' Don't worry. I don't have a transformation pen.'
Haruka chuckled: ' I'm relived to hear that.'
Michiru said teasingly: ' I didn't know that you're such a coward.'
Haruka scowled and Michiru began laughing.
****************************************************************** ***********
Usagi sat beside Seiya and leaned her head against his shoulder. She asked him softly: ' Are you
missing them?'
Seiya put his arm around her waist and smiled: ' A little, but it's nice to be on our own.'
Usagi snuggled closer to him: ' Let's go somewhere quiet for a while. My mother will take care of the
babies . '
Seiya smiled: ' Yeah. Lets have a second honeymoon.'
Usagi flashed: ' You're shameless.'
Seiya looked puzzled: ' Why? '
Usagi pulled at his ponytail whit anger.
A week later they were at an isolated island enjoying themselves. Usagi had a flash back.
*[When Rei heard about their plan, she said rudely: ' I hope you won't return pregnant this time.'
Usagi shouted angrily: ' Baka, baka, baka ....' and Seiya said firmly: ' This won't happen again.']*
Usagi said teasingly: ' Are you sure you don't want another baby? '
Seiya looked shocked. Then he made a funny face and said: ' I'll never change into a woman again. If
you want a baby you must bear it yourself.'
Usagi screamed: ' I'll never go through those pains again.'
Seiya smiled: ' Don't you think two heirs are enough? '
Usagi : ' Yeah.'
Seiya : 'We're lucky that Ikuko mamma is taking care of them otherwise...'
Usagi threw herself on his neck: ' Don't think about it. Just let us have fun.'
Seiya nodded: ' Ok Odango, lets have fun.'
