Secret Admirer
Chapter 1: Attack
-Present-
Haruka rolled her head back cracking the bones in her neck. She was the last one apart from the head mechanic still at the racetrack. She just finished her practice for an upcoming race and she wanted to see if she could beat her fastest record. Although that did not happen today but she'll keep on working on it. She took off her fire suit and brushed her sweaty bangs away from her forehead. She might as well take a quick shower here before heading home. As she started unbuttoning her shirt she heard a noise somewhere behind her. The wind was rustling about telling her there was danger around. She kept quiet before taking out a baseball bat from her locker just in case. She narrowed her eyes as she held the bat high searching for whoever was watching her in the room.
She sees a strand of blue hair and loosens her grip a little wondering if it was Michiru but still kept a warily eye out "Show yourself," she shouts out.
"Of course, Princess Uranus," Out from the corner stepped out a youma with electric blue hair and green moss covering it's whole body.
"I'm sorry, you've confused me for someone else. What are you doing here?" asks Haruka tightening her grip on the bat ready to swing at the youma.
"I was sent to find you and to bring you back to our master. I do not want to hurt you but you must come with me,"
"No, no way in hell am I following you to some stranger. Do I look like I want to be killed?" Haruka gritted her teeth wondering who the hell sent these youmas.
"I have to return with you Princess Uranus. I am sure he sent me after you, he gave me a picture," The youma produced a photo in his hand and chuckled it at Haruka to catch. Haruka caught the photo easily and gazed at the picture of herself.
"I am not Princess Uranus, now go back to your master and tell your master if he wants me, he has to come to me. And not sent slaves instead,"
"If you will not come with us quietly, we will force you. We're not leaving without you,"
Haruka tensed a bit when he heard the youma say we "What do you mean by we?" She heard footsteps behind and quickly she swung at the youma behind her. The bat hit him in the stomach forcing him down on the ground. Quickly taking out her henshin wand she called out her henshin phrase.
"URANUS CRYSTAL POWER! MAKE-" She didn't manage to finish her sentence as she was pushed over to the side by another youma.
'Shimatta there's three," She felt claws dig in her arms tearing her shirt. She grunted in pain as she scanned the floor just seeing her henshin wand lying out of her reach. She quickly turned over on her back and brought her feet up to kick the youma off her.
"If you come with us quietly you will not get hurt," growled one of the youmas as it lunged at her. Haruka rolled over to her right easily dodging the attack and quickly crawled to her henshin wand. Just then the head mechanic bursts into the room.
"Hey Har- what the hell is going on here. GET OUT!" he screamed picking up the bat lying on the floor. Haruka quickly hid her wand in her sleeve before standing up while the head mechanic repeatedly hits the youmas with the bat.
"We'll be back princess and we will take you to him no matter what," let know the first youma before sprinting through the back door with the two other youmas following. She grunted as she felt throbs of pain in her back and arms. She turned her head to examine one of her bleeding shoulders and arm.
"Haruka-san, you ok?" he asks as he lightly touches Haruka's arm examining her wounds "That looks nasty. We better clean it before you get an infection. They don't look too deep so you wont need stitches,"
Haruka nodded as the mechanic led her to the first aid room. He quickly called Michiru and the police although Haruka kept protesting there was no need and that she was fine.
The police came first and Haruka gave them a statement of what happened but left out the conversation she had with the youma. She also tried to give as little description knowing it was best if her and the senshi dealt with this rather than the police. As they left Michiru finally appeared. She quickly apologized about been a little late because of a traffic accident and soon both of them were driving home.
"So three youmas attacked you in the change rooms to take you to someone," followed Michiru sitting in the passenger seat. Haruka still insisted she drove since she wasn't hurt badly and either tomorrow or the day after tomorrow she would be completely healed.
"Hai, they kept calling me Princess Uranus. Looks like there's another enemy rising from the Silver Millennium and now after me. I figure he's after me either to kill me or something similar. Whatever he wants to do to me, it isn't good," told Haruka as she pulled into the driveway.
"And the youmas were covered in a strange green moss with blue hair and had cat like claws and teeth,"
"Hai,"
Michiru quickly gathered Setsuna and Hotaru into the living room for a quick Outer Sailor Senshi meeting quickly telling what just happened at the racetrack.
"Looks like one of your enemy's from the Silver Millennium has returned for you. Must be a survivor and now after you. Question is which one?" thought Setsuna sipping her tea.
"There can't be many is there?" asks Haruka scratching the back of her neck.
Setsuna paused before sipping her tea again "What do you define many?"
"Ten, fifteen, twenty maybe?"
"Try a hundred?"
"Wow, did I piss that many people off in the Silver Millennium?"
"I'm afraid so. Good news is, if it is. A certain tall blonde killed half of them off; fifteen of them imprison and died during the fall of Silver Millennium. So that leaves about fifteen prisoners possibly still alive and out for you,"
"Kuso,"
"Haruka, do always have to be difficult?" asks Michiru lifting an eyebrow at her lover.
"Ah c'mon Michiru. Its one of the things you love about, or why are you dating me?" Haruka pulled Michiru closer to her body wrapping her arms around the aquamarine-head woman.
"I'm beginning to wonder myself. Setsuna,"
"Let me guess. You want me to go to the time gates and digs up all the files of those pissed off prisoners. Of course,"
"Arigato, you always know what to do and do it without asking questions,"
"Its my duty isn't. Plus, we got to keep this so called leader of our group alive no matter how problematic she can be,"
"Hey,"
"Just telling the truth," With that, the Guardian of Time transformed and left to the gates of time.
----------
Everyone sat down at the dining table as Setsuna opened up a strange metal box. She blew off some glitter off the surface before opening the front lock. Haruka took a pinch of the powder before it seeped through her fingers and back onto the table.
"Its dust, from the Silver Millennium," said Setsuna knowing what the blonde was thinking.
"Wow, was everything as pretty as this?"
"Just about,"
"Jesus, that girly,"
Setsuna rifled through the files before taking out fifteen ancient documents and handing Michiru and Hotaru three documents while giving Haruka four and herself five. "These files contain all the well, I guess aliens that would like to get their hands on Haruka,"
"Are all of them men?" asked Michiru glancing at each page of documents.
"Well most of them, well. This fifteen yes but she had a few female enemies, I think," stammered Setsuna placing the box away.
"What about this one. That's a female?" Haruka held up a document with a picture of a young woman with blue hair.
Setsuna reached over the table to grab the document before reading it "No, this is Nukamori Sora, Duke of Neptune. A transvestite,"
Haruka took the document off Setsuna and gazed at the picture herself "Oh, what did I do to him,"
"Well, at the time he posed as Lady of Neptune. He was actually Michiru's cousin and had a thing for you. You were the one who informed every one of his actual gender and well. He had no more power in Neptune society and imprisoned. After the fall of the Silver Millennium he was nowhere to be seen. I though he must've decided to leave the Solar System and live as an outsider since he did not show up on a scan,"
"What's with aliens always wanting to look the opposite gender? First those pervert Starlights and now this?" asks Haruka scratching her hand.
"Look who's talking?" retorted Setsuna "You've just contradicted yourself,"
"I don't dress like a man on purpose. I never recall saying that I am male; this is just how I like to dress. I don't actually want to be a man,"
"Uh huh,"
"Haruka-papa, Setsuna-mama," started Hotaru "How big does he want to kill Haruka-papa?"
"Quite a lot actually. I think he had a thing for you and I'm sure he vowed vengeance on you when he was locked away but nobody believed him because he's actually to be known to be a bit lazy. He always sends someone on the missions he's given and takes the credit,"
"So possibly, Sora send those youmas to go get me and bring me to him,"
"Maybe, but chances are it might not be him. I know he's lazy but he's not known for patience. A thousand years and now he's finally found you,"
"They could be looking for me for quite sometime. I was only born twenty years ago; you on the other hand how old are you exactly? Three thousand, four thousand?"
"Haruka, we have work to do. And for your information a young one thousand twenty eight year old so I'm not as old as you think. Time of gates is a family thing and until I have an heir to carry on I will be the Guardian of Time,"
"That's likely especially if you're already in menopause,"
"I haven't hit menopause yet,"
"Really?"
"So is there a chance that it is Nukamori Sora?" interrupted Neptune getting tired of Haruka and Setsuna arguing.
"I'll check it out. Just keep blondie safe,"
"Hey,"

-Silver Millennium-
Princess Uranus stood while the maid was tying up the back of her corset. She grunted as the corset tightened around her chest making it harder for her to breathe, "Hitomi-san, I would like to be able to breathe," gasped Uranus.
"Don't worry, you'll manage. And now it looks like you've got a smaller waist," reassured the maid as she helped Uranus into her gold and navy gown.
"I don't care if I look like I have a smaller waist. Being able to breathe is a bit more important. Why do I have to go to this ball? My fate is already decided,"
"Princess, just enjoy it. Remember, Neptune will be there and I'm sure you're dying to find out what she's wearing,"
"Hitomi-san,"
"Gomen, gomen,"
There was a knock on the door and the blonde princess couldn't help but roll her eyes. "I'll meet you downstairs mother,"
"Its me princess, are you decent? Can I come in?" called out a deep voice.
Uranus sighed before glancing at Hitomi. "Alright," she answered as she watched the door open.
-Present-
Haruka slowly opened her eyes as she woke up from another memory. 'What does those memories mean?' she asked herself. 'What did 'my fate is already decided' mean?'. Letting out a sigh she rolled over and wrapped her arms around Michiru. Closing her eyes she tried to drift back to sleep.
A/N: Okay, I know I stole Hiro Nukamori's last name from Heroes but Heroes was downloading and I couldn't be bothered going on the Internet to search Japanese last names, which will cause Heroes to slow down downloading. (Its takes a long time to download anything here)
By the way, if you don't watch. I'd recommend you watch it. Its great shows and Hiro is hilarious. Remind me of Usagi a bit.
Anyway, please review.
