Disclaimer: I do not own Sailor Moon for if I did...I'm sure it wouldn't have been as awesome as it is. Nor do I claim that I own it.
AN: This takes place at the "second" last scene in Anime. Aka, the scene after Mamoru is brought back to life and is now farewelling the "aliens" keke.
I didn't write this one shot too well, and I apologise for that. It's just I've always wanted to write a SM fanfic and having watched the whole series (FINALLY!) I really wanted to write what I thought of that scene.
Mamoru's Reaction
There he stood finally back in the presence of his sunshine; his moon princess. It had been a dark and lonely place where he had been without her – not that he wanted her with him where he had been, for he wouldn't want her to be in the pain he had been in. Though, he was sure that if she had been there it wouldn't have been so bad.
Back into the enveloping and protective love of his princess' guardians as they stood before three men and a woman as they prepared to leave Earth and back to their home.
He was very grateful for the three men and the girls for having been by his beloved's side whilst he had not, for protecting her when he could not.
His eyes bore into one of the three men and he could see that those eyes were trained onto his girl. The look he gave her was not of gratitude for helping him save his own princess; actually it was almost as though he wished that Serena was his princess instead...
Mamoru squeezed one hand into a tight fist as the anger and gratitude melded into one. Knowing that he had not been by her side, and unable to protect her whilst this guy had been made his brow crease.
"I'll always remember you," the man said and suddenly the murderous intent that usually only came from the evil side flowed in Mamoru's veins. Flowing rapidly, intently, he prepared to edge his arm over her shoulder possessively but his girlfriend bet him to it.
"We'll always be friends," she said with the most innocent and friendly smile in the world.
Mamoru turned to her with a proud yet unbelieving smile; he chuckled softly as everyone else burst into loud laughter. My darling, Usako.
The loud laughter finally broke through his mind after he had gotten over the anger that had vibrated through him. Did the scouts already know about this man's love for his Usako? Did the scouts forget that he and Usagi were destined? Did they only protect her but not his destiny? Their destiny? Were they only loyal to their princess but not their future queen and king?
His twisted thoughts and insecurities were disturbed when the man – Seiya spoke again, speaking directly to him.
"Between man and man, protect her."
"Of course" Mamoru growled angrily back in reply, who did this man think he is? He may have failed to protect Usagi for a few months but what was he supposed to do when he was dead?
And Seiya may have protected Usagi for the months he wasn't here but Mamoru had protected Usagi for years!
Then his anger dissipated when the three men beside the red hair princess turned into Sailor Scouts – females! He blinked back his confusion hoping that it didn't reveal too much, but seriously! How was he meant to take that!
The man he had been jealous of for the last few hours or so, was a woman! ...or was she? He?
Mamoru shook his head and lifted his hand to join the rest in waving the quartet off – it was best not to think and wonder too much about this asexual character...

AN: Like I said up top after I watched the whole series…especially that scene, I felt that Mamoru really needed more "air-time" in that scene. That is, surely he would've been a tad jealous xD And then O_O to see they're girls…
Anyway, I hope you enjoyed that as rough as it were. Please give me some feedback :D
Thank you for reading.
