**************************************

"World! Shaking!!" Sailor Uranus as she sent her attack at the large daimon. Unfortunately, the daimon dodged the senshi's attack. The large ugly monster drew its claws and started running at the short-haired sailor senshi. "Deep! Submerge!" and "Dead...Scream!" were heard and the daimon was hit by Neptune's and Pluto's attacks. The daimon was now becoming very irritated so, it sent a blast of energy at Neptune before she had anytime to dodge. Uranus's eyes widened as she saw who the attack was aimed for. She knew Neptune had no chance of dodging the blast. She lept up and ran in front of Neptune, protecting her and getting blasted straight into a cement wall.

"'Ruka-chan!" Neptune cried and ran to her lover. "I'm...ok," Uranus said and stood up slowly. "No, don't fight anymore," Neptune begged, "Please, you're bleeding." "No, I'm sweating," Uranus said and wiped off her forehead what she thought was sweat, but when she looked at her hand she saw that it was really blood running down her face. "Please," Neptune begged more. "Ah, it's just a scratch," Uranus said.

"Haruka," Neptune began, "one of these days your stubbornness is going to get you killed." "So, I'm stubborn. That doesn't mean anything," Uranus said. Then she saw the daimon extend its claws even further. Neptune had her back turned and was off guard, but Uranus saw all. The daimon charged at Neptune; its claws aimed at her. Uranus pushed Neptune out of the way and protected her adored girlfriend. Unfortunately the damn daimon stabbed Uranus in the side with its ten-inch razor sharp claw. The daimon then retracted its claw.

Uranus changed back to her citizen form and fell to her knees and then to the ground. Neptune couldn't believe what she had just saw with her own two eyes for a moment. After the shock she ran to her love, crying. She knelt down and picked her up in her arms. "Iie!" She cried, "Iie, Haruka! Don't do this to me!" "Go...gomen nasai..." Haruka said between breaths. Neptune cried, "Please, don't leave me, 'Ruka-chan..." Haruka's vision started to blur and her final words were, "Koishiteru......Michi-chan...." Then all the muscles in Haruka's body relaxed and her head turned with gravity, but her eyes remained open. Neptune put a hand on Haruka's eyes and closed them. Then she screamed with tears flowing down her cheeks. "IIE!" She screamed.

Michiru screamed again, but this time she was sitting up in bed screaming. Haruka grabbed her by the shoulders and pulled Michiru against herself. "Shhh... Daijoubu, Michi-chan," Haruka comforted, "You just had a bad dream..." "Bad dream nothing," Michiru said, "It was a nightmare." Michiru had beads of cold sweat on her forehead. Haruka to Michiru into her arms and lay down again. Michiru leaned into Haruka's embrace and said, "'Ruka-chan." "Hai, love?" Haruka replied. "Don't ever leave me," Michiru said. "Hai," Haruka replied simply, "Koishiteru." Haruka gently pressed her lips against Michiru's. Michiru kissed back gently. "Koishiteru," Michiru said and then fell back asleep. Haruka fell asleep shortly after.
