What Memories Lost
Chapter 1: Goodbye, Pretty Soldier
Disclaimer: I do not own Sailor Moon or W.I.T.C.H. I hope you enjoy my new story.
A darkness loomed over the Juuban District in Tokyo. It rooted itself behind a huge raincloud. An ominous voice whispered from within it.
"Yes, this is the place, the place where she is."
It disappeared completely as the cloud began to rumble with the threat of a downpour.
A blonde girl wearing her school uniform raced through the streets.
"OH, I'm going to be late! Miss Haruna will bury me with after-school work for sure!"
She ran beneath a pink umbrella as water drizzled from over head. A little girl with pink hair, also in a uniform, ran next to the blonde girl.
"Usagi! Don't you forget that you have to drop me off at school first before your teacher can fry your butt for being late!" the pink-haired girl screamed.
"Chibiusa, don't be so disrespectful! You had better be happy I'm running with you and holding this umbrella over your head or I might just decide to not let you be born!" retorted Usagi.
"You wouldn't dare! Because if you did, Mamoru would become very upset with you!" Chibiusa screamed again.
"He's my Mamo-chan! I can convince him to not make me conceive you!" Usagi screeched desperately.
"No you couldn't! Mamoru would probably start treating you the way he did before you were together! What was his nickname for you? Oh yeah, odango-atama!"
"WHAT-DID-YOU-SAY?" Usagi now had quite a scary look on her face.
"…" Chibiusa was now at loss for words as she and Usagi had now stopped running.
"Only Mamoru can ever call me that. You know, I don't even let meanie-Rei call me that anymore," Usagi said, now her voice sounding really grave. She then burst. "SO I MOST DEFINITELY WOULDN'T ALLOW YOU TO DO SO!"
Usagi was now huffing with anger, which was mostly due to being so annoyed by her future daughter's comments.
Chibiusa just smirked. "Usagi, I was only kidding, now can you please take me to school? We're both late."
Usagi looked in wonder at Chibiusa. Well, the little bubble-gum head was certainly growing up. If this had been several months ago, Chibiusa would probably be screaming at Usagi that she was being really mean and then start acting bratty.
Usagi smiled. "Let's go."
The two started running at an amazing speed. As soon as they were through the front gate of Chibiusa's school, the two raced to her classroom.
And then Usagi was out the door and down the front steps and running back on the streets, schoolbag in one hand, umbrella in the other. She raced up the steps of her school just as the late bell rang.
She jumped into the classroom door where her teacher was standing.
"Oh Miss Haruna! Please forgive me! I had to take Chibiusa to her school and it was pouring rain and -Miss Haruna?"
"Oh Usagi, I didn't see you come in."
Usagi was surprised. She slipped into her seat with no complaint.
It was lunch and Usagi and her friends were eating inside, not really that they had a choice.
" Oh no. The rain wrecked my lunch!" Usagi yelled.
"Ami!" Usagi called her friend. She began to whisper. "You're the senshi of water, please save my beautiful lunch?"
Ami whispered back. "Sorry Usagi..., I may be the senshi of water, but I can't control water simply with my mind." This was true. The genius girl had wondered off and on end if she could control this element simply by willing it with her mind. When she had tried, it had been futile.
But Ami could swear that time to time, depending how her mood was, the water in her bathtub would swish and swirl upon 'knowing' her emotions. But she just assumed it was simply her imagination wanting it to become true.
"Aww, Ami, you just destroyed my hopes of eating," Usagi looking as if she would break into tears at the moment. "I wish Rei was here. Then she could do 'Fire Soul' on my lunch so I could eat it."
"Um, Usagi, I think that would make it worse," said her friend Makoto. "'Fire Soul' would probably just burn your lunch and your nice new lunch sack."
"Makoto you just crushed another dream!" said Usagi angrily. She sighed as her stomach grumbled.
"It's all right, Usagi, just have some of mine. We can clean out your lunch sack later," Makoto said. She offered her the food kindly.
"Oh, thank you Makoto!" Usagi said happily, grabbing her chopsticks and starting to decide which food looked best to eat.
But at that moment, three little wristwatches on each of these three girls' hands went beeping.
"Oh what could be going on now! Right when I'm about to eat!" Usagi whined.
Nevertheless, the three girls opened the face of the wristwatches to a little screen. In it was the face of a girl with blonde hair with a ribbon in the back.
"It's Mina. Usagi, Ami, Makoto, we have trouble!" she exclaimed. "In front of Chibiusa's school! There's some new enemy! Chibimoon and Mars are with me! Hurry! And make sure you're ready when you get here!"
The girl's face disappeared from the screen. The three girls closed the watches.
"Usagi, act like you're sick," Ami said.
Usagi immediately made a face that could pass for stomach illness. Or better!
Makoto put Usagi's arm around her neck and hurried over to Miss Haruna, who was dreamily eating at the front desk of the classroom.
"Miss Haruna! Usagi ate some bad fish and now she's probably gonna! Please let us take her to the nurse!" Makoto exclaimed.
"You take Usagi to the nurse!"
"Okay!"
And the three of them went racing out the door. They ran down the hallway and outside. Once out they screamed:
"Moon Cosmic Power!"
"Mercury Planet Power!"
"Jupiter Planet Power!"
"MAKEUP!" they said simultaneously.
In only a second the three girls were transformed. They were Sailor Moon, Sailor Mercury, and Sailor Jupiter.
And with superhuman ability, the three ran and jumped atop buildings to reach their destination.
They were there within minutes. They came to see a group of monsters terrorizing the school where Chibiusa was at. Chibiusa, or as she was now, Chibimoon was helping to fight them off.
"Pink Sugar Heart Attack!" she screamed. The Pink Moon Stick in her hand gave off powerful pink hearts that were now colliding with one of the monsters.
"Machinasai!" yelled out the three Sailors who had arrived. "New enemy, we are the Sailor Soldiers, and in the name of the moon, we shall punish you!"
The monsters didn't seem to pay heed. So attacks were simply thrown at them.
"Shine Aqua Illusion!"
"Sparkling Wide Pressure!"
"Rolling Heart Vibration!"
"Burning Mandala!"
"Pink Sugar Heart Attack!"
"Moon Spiral Heart Attack!"
This set off a few more to attack towards the senshi. But a good number of monsters had been turned to dust. Yet still more kept coming.
"I don't think this many youma ever attacked all at once before!" shouted Sailor Jupiter.
"Somehow, I don't think these monsters are just simple youma!" shouted back Mercury.
As Chibimoon and Moon destroyed several more of the new monsters they had to huff a few hard breaths. But right behind them another monster was getting ready for the kill. A ball of energy formed within its hands. It aimed right for them.
"Sailor Moon! Sailor Chibimoon!" Venus screamed in warning.
The two moon senshi had not been able to notice the energy being aimed at them. So even as Venus warned them, it was too late to get away. They were a dead target now.
But just as the monster was about to throw the attack straight at them, a single red rose flew like a dart at the monster's hands. And it dropped the attack to scream in pain.
Moon and Chibimoon looked up at a light pole. Standing on the top was a masked man wearing a tuxedo.
"Tuxedo Mask!" the two girls yelled happily.
He jumped down next to them.
"Usako, Chibiusa, are you two alright?" he asked.
"Yes," they said.
But as these three were having some type of reunion, another monster, which was probably the most powerful one of the group started forming a new ball of energy towards them.
Sailor Moon was the only one to notice it speeding their way. The fast energy was this time unstoppable and inescapable. It was headed for them. There was no doubt that it would hit its target.
But Sailor Moon would not have it that way. She jumped in front of both Sailor Chibimoon and Tuxedo Mask and took the hit.
She let out a blood curdling scream.
"Sailor Moon!" screamed her fellow senshi.
"Usako!" screamed Tuxedo Mask!
"Usagi!" screamed Chibimoon.
All of a sudden, her body glowed and disappeared. She was gone.
