Sadly, I do not own Sailor Moon or Trigun. I don't even have a Vash figurine!
I dedicate this fiction to my dear friend Usa-chan who edited this story and helped me to overcome my fears and start writing. Also I would like to thank all other fanfiction writers for NOT writing any Trigun/Sailor Moon crossovers! (Kidding) I truly think it's a first one. Well, if you want to prove me wrong, please say so. I would love to have a few reviews as well! That will help me to work on the next chapters. And again, thank you, Usa-chan for all your support! Have mercy, people, this is my first fanfiction.
This is a Sailor Moon R Time line after the battle with Pharaoh 90 and for the Trigun it's somewhere in the middle of the series.
Setsuna silently watched Usagi. The blond quietly wept, wrapping herself in the blanket to muffle her sounds. It hurt the Time Guardian to see her princess like that. "I wish I could do something, I wish I could relate to her somehow, I wish she listened to me… Usagi made the right choice, but she still feels like a failure. It was necessary for Uranus and Neptune to confront Sailor Moon, to question her choices and their battle. To question their leader if saving the Solder of Destruction and put innocent people as well as her teammates in horrible danger was the right thing to do. Could she kill in order to save others? Could she let Hotaru die??? How did she know that she could save everyone and avoid the death of one girl? How did she know it would work? Setsuna took her eyes off the Princess and sighed: "I can't help her, I can't answer these questions for her, she needs to find an answer herself. To make peace with herself and with the stubborn Outer Senshi." A sly smile appeared on Setsuna's face as she thought of something: "And I know just the right person to help her with that!" She transformed into her civilian form and disappeared…
Vash suddenly opened his eyes and sat straight up in his bed. A beautiful woman with long green hair was comfortably sitting by the table and drinking tea. Vash rubbed his eyes once, twice, but the woman was still there. "Good Morning, Vash The Stampede" Setsuna watched with satisfaction at the way Vash was trying to figure out what exactly was going on. "I have a favor to ask you, but first, why don't you have some tea with me?"
Vash jumped off the bed and wailed: "I can't believe Legato sent an assasin this early! It's not fair! It's not that I really mind seeing such a beautiful woman! Is killing people is your morning routine???"
His answer was a soft chuckle. "I do not belong to this dimension, Vash" Relieved that Setsuna was not one of the Gung-Ho Guns Vash popped himself down on the seat across from her and watched her drinking the hot liquid.
He suddenly leaned over the table his face only inches away from Setsuna's: "So, when are we going to get married, eehhhhhh, your name?"
"It's Setsuna Meioh" - The Time Guardian calmly looked into the Humanoid Typhoon's boyish face -" and the answer to your first question is - Never ".
Vash's face fell. "You know, it's always like that, is it me???" His face was full of raw emotion, tears visible in the green eyes.
Setsuna eyed him for a few minutes trying not to laugh out loud and then said. "No, it's not you, it's just first: we have never met before and I prefer to know people before I have a relatioship with them and second: I am much older then you."
Vash straightened in his seat and his face lit up. "Oh, no, miss, you are definitely wrong here! Guess how old I really am."
Setsuna sighed. "About a hundred and thirty years old or so, no, Vash The Stampede, I am definitely older then you are."
Vash crashed down from his chair…. "What the hell are you?"
Setsuna got up from her seat and walked to the window: "It's doesn't really matter, Vash, but I need your help, besides, you own it to me and my Princess."
Vash choked on the tea. "Excuse me? I have never seen you in my entire life!!!!!!!!"
"Remember that hole you put on the Moon a while ago?" - Interrupted Setsuna.
Vash gulped. "Oh, that one…"
"Well, I don't think the Princess of the Moon would be too happy with her damaged property"
Vash's face paled as he got up from his seat and started walking back and forward. "Princess of what? Hey but didn't you say that you do not belong to this dimension???"
Setsuna winced `I forgot the fact how bright this guy really is, despite his clown-like personality' Setsuna lost in the thought smiled to herself as she thought of her sad Princess back home `It's amazing how much they both are alike, really… those two goof-balls would have so much fun together…' out loud she said. "Well, as a Guardian of Time I see what's happening in all dimensions and I saw what you did to the Moon, the damage that was done could easily affect the Time stream as well as the lives and destinies of million people." Well, it wasn't really true and Setsuna really hated lying to people but this time she had to.
Vash stopped dead in his tracks and looked Setsuna straight into the eyes. "I had no choice, I didn't want to hurt anyone, I didn't want anyone to die!"
Setsuna sadly smiled as she remembered the same exact words said to her by her dear person in another dimension. "I understand that, but you have to have Her to understand you as well. Will you talk to her, Vash?" Setsuna pleaded.
"You really lost me here, miss"
A blush covered Setsuna's chicks as she realized that she'd been saying things out loud without any explanation. "I am sorry, please sit down and I will tell you everything you need to know, but it's a long story, so how about some more tea?"
Vash put his cup down. "Ok, Ok, I understand now, there is a champion of justice in another dimension who needs, how can I put it, a little counseling on the subject of "Love and Peace"? Did I get your story right, Setsuna?"
Setsuna looked at his slender fingers still holding the cup and smiled. "Something like that…"
Vash got out of his seat and put his arms behind his head " Well, then there is only one question left… Is she cute!!!!????"
Setsuna groaned. "She's fourteen, Vash, and already has a boyfriend."
Clear disappointment was written on the man's face: "Then I guess I will have to talk to her in 4 years!"
Setsuna got off her seat and grabbed the Humanoid Typhoon by his collar. " No, Vash, you will talk to her now." with these words she transported them both to the Time Gate.
Vash brushed his red coat off muttering about green haired mean witches who wake him up in the early morning in order to save some teenage girl's butt. "Hey, Setsuna, you think it will be enough talking ONLY about "Love and Peace" issues? You said she has a boyfriend. I bet I can teach her some other important things that teenage girls with the boyfriends need to know!"
"Shut up!" At this point Setsuna thought that it wasn't such a good idea after all bringing this lunatic into Usagi's dimension and hoping for any serious conversation. She sighed and decided to stick to the original plan but transforming into Sailor Pluto was out of the question. She groaned at the thought of the 60 billion dollar man getting nosebleeds at the glimpse of her legs in her short sailor fuku.
Usagi woke up with a heavy head. All night she was dreaming over and over again about their last battle with Pharaoh 90. Visions of her giving her Grail into the hands of the enemy and the expressions of hurt and betrayal on the faces of Uranus and Neptune wouldn't leave her alone. She groaned with pain and fell back on the bed. "Why did I do that? I didn't even THINK that something might go wrong, I knew deep inside that Mistress 9 was in need of my power and not for the good purpose, why did I still gave it to her? The Outers were right. She had put everyone in danger, only the last strength of her friends and her own sacrifices had saved the world. Hotaru's sick and tired face came to her mind. "She is just a little kid, she didn't deserve to be involved with all that, and she didn't deserve to die!" She turned on her stomach and hid her face in the pillow, sobbing.
"Princess…"
"Setsuna! I am so sorry! I failed everyone, I am not a leader, and I am a loser! I can't go on like that, everyone hates me!" Usagi's voice turned into high pitch.
"Shhhhh, no need to be so upset, Usagi." Setsuna sat down on the blonde girl's bed. "It will all work out in the end, you did what you had to do, you don't have to explain anything to anybody. The Outers will understand, just give them some time. Also…" Setsuna paused "…I want you to meet someone. Someone, who can help you to deal with this, someone who has to deal with situation like that everyday."
Usagi stopped crying and looked up at the older woman. "Do I know this person?"
"No." Setsuna silently prayed that it would work. She shrugged at the thought of those two going to the arcade and stuffing their faces with ice cream, playing tag, reading manga and god knows what other silly things they could come up with. `Oh, well, I am sure some good will come out of it. "He is different from anyone you have ever met"
Usagi wiped her eye with the sleeve of her pajamas "Oh, it's a guy? I don't think Mamo-chan will like it very much if I ….."
"Nobody will know about this conversation," interrupted Setsuna. "It doesn't concern anyone but you. I promise you that you will be safe. Please get ready and meet me in the park." With these words Setsuna got up and disappeared.
With the thoughts about meeting with the stranger Usagi almost forgot about things that were troubling her. In the hot shower her mind drifted away to the events of the previous night again. "What a nightmare." Usagi shut off the water and got the towel. Drying her tired body with the fluffy towel she sighed. "I hope Setsuna knows what she is doing. It's kind of silly, who else in this world can have problems similar to mine?" She wished she had asked Setsuna more questions.
