Full Metal Panic! was created by Gatoh Shoji, Shukidoji, and the sailor senshi and friends were created by Naoko Takeuchi. Neither of course know that I borrowed them.

Dr. Tomoe went through Kaorinite's notes on potential students for Mugen Gakuen. Near the top of the list was a Kaname Chidori. Right next to her name was a Sousuke Sagara. After some consideration he sent out invitations for them to join the school.

--------------

"Burnable waste, food waste, recyclable waste... All sorted the way Miss Chidori said to do it." Sousuke tied up the different bags. 'Waste... it amazes me how different countries handle their waste. He carried the bags to the door of the dorm room. 'Come to think of it, I've been handling waste for years. Only I've been dealing with human waste. The ones that would destroy others.' Shaking that thought out of his head, he looked at the schedule to see which bag was to be set out today. Glancing a little to the left of the door he spotted the surveillance camera. He could understand simple security but this school went beyond that. The school had sensors in almost everywhere. Picking up the burnable waste bag he walked out to the dumpster. 'Of course it made setting up surveillance on Miss Chidori easier.' He had tapped into their system and had it send him the same information that they received. As he was walking he watched the other students, and some of the teachers. 'Waste. Some of these people feel like my kind of waste.' Dropping the bag at the dumpster, he went to find Kaname.

-------------

"I don't know why they let her in. Her scores aren't that high, she doesn't have a special talent that she is taking classes for. Him I can see. He can do anything he wants with a machine." Michiru and Haruka looked to see who the passing girls were talking about. The two newest students were standing in a near by hall.

Sousuke leaned on the wall next to Kaname. He heard the girls comments as they passed by, and noted their faces. 'Good they don't know. All of these people here because they have some type of talent. They are not collecting just the possible Whispers.' He let his eyes trail around the area, watching for all possible attacks while Kaname stood and chatted with her newest friend.

---------------
Haruka and Michiru sat at one of the picnic tables in the courtyard.

"So what are you having for lunch?" Michiru peered over the table trying to figure out what was in front of Haruka.

"Cafeteria food. Hey look over there. Do you see him?"

" Him..? Your noticing guys now?" Michiru smiled as she teased. Her jest was met by silence. " Okay, no, there are lots of guys out here. Which one?"

"The new one. His name is Sousuke Sagara. He is over there with the new girl in your language class, Kaname Chidori. "

"Okay. I see him. What about him?"

"I always see him around her. The way he sits, moves , and observes things. It reminds me of something and I can't quite place it."

" Hum-m-m-m. Now that you mention it. He walks her to class, meets her when she leaves class, and he watches everything that is happening. But he isn't too obvious about it."

While eating their food, both of them discretely watched the pair. As Professor Eugeal walked near the table, Sousuke's body language shifted for passively watching to a protective watching.

"That's it!" Haruka and Michiru both said and then looked at each other. "He's a bodyguard."

Haruka gathered up the refuse of their lunch. " Now why does she need a bodyguard?"

Michiru grabbed a piece that was about to drop."Maybe she is really rich?"

"Maybe."

-------------------------

"Sousuke, I want to go shopping. If you really insist on going along you get to carry the packages." Kaname stood near the gate of the school staring at Sousuke who was blocking her path.

"Miss Chidori, I advise that you delay your shopping trip. It looks like it will rain." 'There are three people following us.'

"I'm not going to be put off by a little bit of rain,Sousuke. I've got my umbrella. " She walked around him. "I'm going, if your coming come on."

As Sousuke turned and followed her out into the shopping district he noticed that the three people continued to follow them.

An hour later, Sousuke was carrying three bags,and Kaname was peering into another story window. Sousuke was also peering into the window, but he was paying attention to the reflections. There they were, one with red hair, one with blond hair, and a sea green haired one. The latter two had been watching them for weeks, and the red-haired one was one of the school professors. Professor Eugeal had been following Chidori for the past week.

"Sousuke! Come on!!" Kaname took off down the road towards a park. He took off, scanning the area she was heading for as he went. He could hear the people following them trying to catch up. As they entered the park he caught a flash of red and silver out of the corner of his eye. He dove into Kaname while shooting at the professor who was aiming some kind of cannon at them. He felt some kind of blast hit. As he went down and his world was turning to black, he checked on Kaname. 'Just knock out, she's not hit.'

------

Uranus and Neptune followed Eugeal out of the school grounds. She seemed to be following Chidori and Sagara. As they neared a small park both were about to give up and head back. Then Chidori took off for the park and Sagara was close on her hills. Eugeal took off after them. When Eugeal reached the park she pulled out her cannon and shot it at the pair. Uranus was surprised when Sagara pushed Chidori out of the way and shot at Eugeal with a gun that had just appeared in his hand. She thought that he had avoided the blast from the cannon until his heart crystal appeared in front of him.
Neptune looked over at Eugeal and saw she wasn't moving. Then she and Uranus went and checked out Sagara's heart crystal. It was a large crystal of varying shades of green, but there was no talisman. Gently, they placed it back into his body.

Then they heard Eugeal pull herself back to her feet. They both turned around to face her. Uranus notices that she was hit in the shoulder and her left thigh. Neptune spoke quietly "This one didn't have it either."

Eugeal's eyes narrowed, and then she turned, picked up her shot up cannon, and hobbled away. When she was gone they jumped into a tree and watched over Chidori and Sagara. A few moments later Kaname came to.

"What happened? Sousuke!!" She started to shake him. Sousuke's eyes open and he immediately started looking for the red haired woman. After he confirmed she was gone he told Kaname "I think we should return to the school, Miss Chidori."

"Okay."

From the tree branch, Uranus and Neptune saw them walk slowly back towards the school.

When they reached the campus Sousuke told Kaname to stop in the courtyard.

"Miss Chidori, we need to leave this place. We should return to our old school."

"Why? Don't you know how much of a privilege it is to be invited here?" Kaname brushed her hand over the uniform skirt.

"No. Miss Chidori. I did not realize it was such a high privilege."

"Well it is. I don't want to give it up. I don't know why they invited me, but they did. They only accept the very talented, or wealthy students. They don't accept normal people like me!"

"Then why did they invite me? They could not know about my specialties. Beginning able to use Arm Slaves is not required here."

"I don't know Sousuke, but I don't want to leave."

"I'm sorry Miss Chidori, but I must request that we leave today. Our assailant was one of the professors. Professor Eugeal to be precise. I can not let you stay in hostile territory. I shall walk you to your room. Lock the door, and then gather your gear. I shall be back at your door in precisely two hours. Be ready to leave. Do not let anyone in before then."

Kaname's eyes widened with alarm and then nodded her head.

It took Sousuke less than twenty minutes to have all his gear packed, and the surveillance equipment fooled into believing that they were acting normal. Then he left his room, carefully shutting the door so as not to set off the trap he set for the next person that opened it. He then ghosted down the stairwell. After he left the building he reconnoitered the escape route he had chosen. In several places along the route he set up traps and explosives to cover their escape.

At precisely two hours from when he left her, Sousuke knocked on Kaname's door. "Miss Chidori, let's go."

Kaname opened the door and carried out her pack of belongings. Sousuke gestured her to wait outside of her door. Taking a small amount of plastic explosives and a fuse wire, he rigged the door to explode when it was opened next. He then lead Kaname quickly out of the building and down along the escape route. Their passing was marked by a multitude of small explosions. When they made it out of the gates he lead them down a series of back allies to loose any followers. An hour later he pulled out a cell phone and made a call. Kaname sat on a crate next to a dumpster and listened to him.

"Kurz, we have successfully completed extraction. We are currently at rendezvous point. Ready for pick-up."

"Okay, Sousuke. Make you way to the radio tower. Melissa will be waiting for you in a car. I'll watch the school for any followers. Watch your back."

"Roger that, Sagara out."

"Come on Miss Chidori, we must get to Tokyo tower."

"Can we take the train?"

Sousuke looked thoughtful. "Let us try."

They successfully made it to the train station and boarded the train. "Keep low Miss Chidori."

"We'll look noticeable if we keep crouched down. Act normal Sousuke."

"You are right Miss Chidori." With that he sat up and continually scanned the train and the areas that they were passing. They finally got to Tokyo tower station. Sousuke rushed her behind the nearest cover and scanned the area for Melissa Mao.

"There. Let's go Miss Chidori." They rushed over to the car. "Mao."

"Sagara. Get in. There is a flight waiting for you."

Kaname and Sousuke clambered into the car, and Melissa stepped on the gas. Melissa also started speaking." We ran a check on the school. There is something not quite right about Dr. Tomoe. The Captain was about to send word for you two to get out of there. We are going to make it seem like a kidnapping. So you will be missing for two weeks. A ransom note is being delivered to the school as we speak. At the end of the two weeks you'll be returned to the Jindai area. You will be completely briefed on the flight."

She swung the car into a small plane airport. "There is the jet. Hurry." Kaname and Sousuke jumped out and ran for the plane. Melissa watched as it took off.

Michiru and Haruka stood with all the students staring at the destruction of the school ground. Two dorm buildings have been closed as a precautionary measure. Both had sustained damage in two different rooms. Luckily not many people had been hurt in the explosions. The ones that were hurt ran into the fracas not away. Many more would have been hurt if Sailor Uranus and Sailor Neptune had not acted quickly and saved them. The police had been called in, as well as the school security, and the school grounds were closed. They were currently checking to make sure all the students were accounted for. Michiru could have told them that two were missing. Haruka could have told them who had created all this destruction. Neither one of them was willing to.

As they wandered back to the courtyard they heard that a ransom note was found in both Kaname Chidori's room and Sousuke Sagara's room.

They looked at each other in surprise. "I wonder how he managed that?" Michiru just shrugged in reply.
