The Search For The Moon Princess: The Girl of Loneliness, Tsukino Usagi

Chapter 02: "Mamoru's Strange Dream!"

By: The Crystal Knight

It was night. The skies were clear. All was quiet. At Mamoru's
apartment all was also quiet. Mamoru was up watching television
for the latest reports on the news about the weather, national
events, and the local events. On television they were showing
a live picture of the Sailor Senshi that was being blasted by
a monster. Usagi was sleeping quietly. It was her first day
at Mamoru's apartment. He had treated her like a Princess,
but she wasn't. Suddenly Mamoru fell down in pain. It was
uncontrollable! He soon was over taken by a transformation
and his mind had gone blank! The next thing that happed
was...

"What do we do? We can't break free of Youma Vine Strangler's
evil grasp!"

Cried out Sailor Mars. Suddenly a red rose fell towards the
Sailor Senshi freeing them from the grasp from the youma. Then
the Sailor Senshi and the youma looked up on the pillar and saw
a man in a top hat wearing a tuxedo with a mask over his eyes.
He spoke up to announce himself.

"For those that hurt beautiful girls that fights to save the
city, that is something I cannot forgive! I am Tuxedo Kamen!
I shall punish you! HYAH!"

Tuxedo Kamen spoke the words That the Sailor Senshi will never
forget! Tuxedo Kamen charged the monster and hit it in the eye
with his cane. Then he grabbed the youma by holding it down
enabling the Sailor Senshi to destroy it!

"Now! Sailor Senshi! DO IT! Show him whose boss!"

Commanded Tuxedo Kamen!

"Shabon Spray!"

Sailor Mercury cried.

"Fire Soul!"

Sailor Mars cried.

"Supreme Thunder!"

Sailor Jupiter cried.

"Crescent Beam!"

Sailor Venus cried.

The four powers came together and hit the youma with a
single beam! The youma fell to the ground and turned to dust!

"You did well Sailor Senshi! Remember I am always with you! I,
Tuxedo Kamen shall fight with you!"

With that, Tuxedo Kamen disappeared from their sight.

"Man! He's so dreamy!"

Sailor Venus had spoken in a dreamy state.

"Yeah. He's cool."

Sailor Jupiter replied softly, but just as dreamy as Sailor
Venus.

Tuxedo Kamen ran through the streets until he fainted and
retransformed. When Mamoru had woken up, he didn't know how
he had gotten there.

"What am I doing here? I better get home!"

Mamoru spoke to himself.

Minutes later, Mamoru had gotten home and checked on Usagi.
She was still sleeping. His unknown secret about leaving the
apartment would be discovered tonight. Soon after this, Mamoru
went to bed. Not very long after this, Mamoru fell asleep and
started dreaming. He soon began talking in his sleep saying...

"Oh, no! Not this annoying dream again!"

Mamoru had spoken when Usagi had woken up to use the bathroom.
She saw the door open and decided to see why he was talking
in his sleep.

"This is strange. He's talking in his sleep."

Usagi said to herself. Inside his dream, Mamoru was dressed
in bluish-black armor with a sword at his right side. He looked
up and saw a princess that was very beautiful, but he couldn't
see her completely since she was in the shadows of the palace.
The princess began to speak to him.

"Endymion! You must find the Ginzuishou! Enemies are closing on
where it's hidden!"

Princess Serenity sternly had spoken.

"You must hurry! Find the Rainbow Crystals! That way you can find
more about yourself."

"Who are you?"

Prince Endymion questioned her.

"Hurry! Time's running out and I won't return if you don't get
the Rainbow Crystals, so hurry!"

The Princess commanded once more. When Usagi heard the
conversation that Mamoru had spoken, she was stunned. Soon after
this, she went back to bed and Mamoru continued to dream until
5 A.M. in the morning when he woke up.

The sun had just come up. The birds were singing. The Tokyo
Morning news had been delivered at his door. He opened the
door and picked it up and took it inside. He began reading it.
The headline said the following:

"MYSTERIOUS MALE HERO: TUXEDO KAMEN SAVES SAILOR SENSHI!"

When Mamoru read the article, he was stunned. Later he put down
the paper and made some breakfast and took some to Usagi's room.

"Knock, knock."

Mamoru said.

"Come in."

Usagi replied.

"I have some breakfast. Are you hungry?"

He asked her.

"Yes I am actually."

She replied again.

"Good."

He said,

"Here."

"Thanks."

She thanked him gratefully. After she was done she asked
him something.

"Why did you take me in your life?"

Usagi asked him.

"Because I was once like you! My parents died when I was your age.
Although I was seriously wounded, I also had amnesia, which
prevented me from remembering everything about my past. At the
orphanage, a nurse there taught me how to love and rely on
others. I will never forget her."

He thought as he remembers his tragic past.

"Oh. Will you teach me how to love again?"

Usagi questioned him. He didn't think very long.

"Sure, that way you don't have to be sad again. I can teach you,
but you won't get over your sorrows over night! The horrific
memories will always haunt you now and then, but you must be
strong, okay?"

Mamoru agreed to teach her. Mamoru cared for her. He read the
file about Usagi about her parents and her brother about how
they were killed and how she was spared.

"Thank you!"

She replied.

"Your welcome."

Is what he replied back. Usagi was so happy that she kissed him
on the cheek. He suddenly felt something familiar about her. For
now he wasn't going to worry about that. He just wanted to make
her happy what ever it would take.
