Title: History - Part 3
Now, it could be said that many emotions and thought were going through
all persons involved in this less than nice reunion. First things first, Mamoru
found himself jumping to the ground and standing in front of the blond before
his mind could tell his legs to run the opposite direction. Yes, he knew how she
could get when she was angry, and by the shade of red her face was turning, he
knew she was going to blow any second. Makoto, who was standing nearby saw this
too, and took a step back so that she wouldn't get scorched.
Instead, Usagi's face turned the normal color, and she smiled an almost
teasing smile at her ex-boyfriend. Sure she was angry, hurt, and ready to burst
into tears, but she had learned that wouldn't get her anywhere, and smiled. Why
not supprise him and show him she was as mature as he wanted her to be so long
ago. The expression on his face brightened up her smile, and she quietly
celebrated her short-lived victory. Here comes the punch, Usagi was going right
for the gut.
"Hello, Mamoru-san. I just finished shopping with Makoto and Ti'ana," she
commented, circling him like a vulture. A large gulp found it's way down
Mamoru's throat as he figured out just which Ti'ana she was talking about. She
finished circling him, but made him turn to face her.
"Oh, hello, Usagi," he paused. "What are you doing back in town?"
"Working, taking my old roll back, nothing much. Listen, I'd love to talk,
but Mako-chan and I were just heading for Rei's temple," she replied.
"Oh, alright. Listen, do you know where Ti'ana went to? We were going to
go out this evening," Usagi wasn't the only one who could play this game. He
watched as Usagi, who was walking towards Makoto, stop mid step. Smiling, he
looked towards the sky before looking back at her. She whipped around and
slapped him in one motion.
"How dare you do this to me!" she yelled, her control flying out the
window. She tried to get out of there as fast as she could, but couldn't let him
get away with what he was doing. They were supposed to be together forever, rule
over Crystal Tokyo and everything. What was he doing now? Going out with some
law student twit. He should of chased after her and brought her home. That's
what she wanted him to do. But he didn't, and she had cried for days over that.
Well, she hadn't gotten over him, and to this day, believed in their love. Now,
seeing his new girlfriend, all her dreams and hopes were shattered. Tears came
down her now red cheeks as Mamoru stood before her, slightly dumbfounded.
"Do what?" he asked. Makoto couldn't figure out if he was serious or
trying to be mean. Either way, it was a cruel question.
"This. Break our link, our love! You've just thrown it away!" she yelled.
People coming out of the mall started looking at them, un-nerving Mamoru, who
hated when things like this happened.
"Can we _please_ have this argument somewhere less public?" he whispered
harshly, grabbing onto her arm. For some reason, a wonderful feeling swept over
him, but was cut off when she yanked herself from his grasp.
"No. I don't think I could handle talking to you again," she replied,
standing back from him. "Just go away," Usagi added. Mamoru opened his mouth to
say something, but she cut him off. "No, go away!" she yelled. Mamoru sighed and
stuffed his hands in his pockets before walking off. Makoto walked over to Usagi
and went to give her a hug when she was pushed away. "I need to be alone right
now,"
"Are you sure?" the brown haired woman asked her.
"Yes, but thank you," Usagi replied before walking off towards the park.
Makoto stood and watched her walk away, shaking her head.
"Poor Usagi," she whispered, and started towards home.
In the shadows, Ti'ana stood, smiling, before walking after Mamoru.

(AN: Here's where my story kinda becomes an AR, since I did make up new,
umm, royalty. But they fit, and will only be in this fic. They're mine, ya
hear!)
Emer sat on the large bed that loomed like a yoma in the darkness of the
room. In a plush chair across from him sat Sailorpluto, the time staff leaning
against the chair, catching the small rays of light that would sweep across the
room. Their surroundings were nice, but weren't seen as no light had been seen
in this room for years, and the furniture was dark from no light. This had once
been a beautiful mansion set in the rifts of space. Now it served as a home to
the evil that was heading towards earth - in more than one time. By capturing
her, they kept their minions throughout time, and by capturing him, they had
control, as the reader will soon find out.
"Is it true you were killed by that witch?" Pluto asked, leaning forward
in her chair. It had been rumored that Emer had been killed, but she never
believed it. He was her brother-in-law, he couldn't die. Emer sighed, which she
heard, and thought for a minuet.
"It was a supprise attack. We weren't expecting it. And I tried to protect
her, but I couldn't," He tapered off into silence as he remembered the night he
had last held his wife in his arms. He did, indeed, try to protect her from the
attack, but managed to get himself killed, leaving her open for an attack.
"What happened to her?" Pluto asked. If the reader hasn't figured it out
yet, the wife of Emer is Pluto's sister, and she hadn't seen her sister for over
a thousand years.
"She survived, with terrible scars, of course. How do you think they're
working their plan in the present? If she doesn't help them, I die," he replied.
"She should know that she shouldn't help,"
"But she can't stand watching me die again," Was the immediate reply.
"True," Pluto paused for a minuet as a sound came from outside the door.
It was soon gone, and she continued. "We have to get out of here,"
"That we do, but how?"
"Together, we can do anything,"
"Oh really," a new voice came from the shadows. Walking further into the
room, a dark figure smiled, showing white teeth. "I wasn't aware you two knew
each other,"
"Who are you?" Emer asked, standing up. A silver medallion hanging around
his neck caught some light as another sweep came through. The man noticed this
and laughed.
"Why, King Emerlan, you still wear that pathetic piece from a dead and
forgotten time?" the man asked.
"It's not forgotten, nor is it dead," Emer replied.
"You lie. The Guild was nothing more than a bunch of power hungry royalty.
Look where their laws and treaties got us," the man stated. "They were weak," he
spat.
"If they were, then why are there four of us left?" Pluto spoke up.
"You're right, I disbanded millennia ago," the man replied, looking up at
the ceiling. "The sun is the brightest star in the sky, and all life relies on
it," he started, and walked over to one of the walls. "Even you, Emerlan," With
that, he lifted the blinds, causing Emer to clench shut his dark blue eyes. It
had been a year since he saw the sun, and his once rich looking skin was pale,
his black hair thin, along with his body. It was then that Pluto knew they had
to get out of there, and how they would do it.
"The window," she whispered to him. He smiled, and opened his eyes a pinch
to see the window. In the background, he could hear whom he now knew as the lord
of the sun, Seoyn, laughing even louder. Pluto made a move towards her staff,
and when her fingers touched it, she whipped it at Seoyn's head. A loud clunk
assured them he was down, and they ran towards the window. Crashing through it,
they found themselves on the lunar surface, not far from the ruins there.
Looking down at earth, Emer sighed and shook his head.
"What now?"
"What, do you think this time staff is a decoration? Grab hold," Pluto
called from behind him. He turned and put a hand on the staff. In no time, they
were on their way to earth.
~*~*~
Seoyn watched his once prisoners on their way to earth, cursing under his
breath. Angry, he spoke into a wrist communicator.
"Call back the troops. We need a new plan,"
Seoyn wasn't one who lost easily.
"You might have won the battle, but not the war,"
~*~*~
"He said _what_?" Hino Rei asked, sitting outside the temple that was now
hers. Since her grandfather's death, Rei had become the head priestess of the
temple. Next to her sat Makoto, and on the other side, Ami had her nose in a
book, but was listening to their conversation. Makoto had come there right after
she left Usagi in the parking lot.
"He wanted to know what he did to her," Makoto said. "And the freaky thing
is that Ti'ana was watching the whole thing, smiling. She has to be evil,"
"And what about that yoma?" Ami asked, looking up at them. "Do you think
she had anything to do with it?"
"Probably," Rei snorted.
"Yeah, but we should ask her about it first," Makoto said.
"Ask her what?" a new voice asked. The girls looked up to see Ti'ana,
dressed in a long silk gown, standing at the top of the stairs.
"Nothing," they replied.
"Do you know where Usagi is? I need to talk to her," Ti'ana said, her
voice small. The girls stood up and walked over to her, ready for a fight, if it
were needed.
"I don't think you're the person she'd like to talk to right now," Makoto
said.
"Yeah, you being Mamoru's girlfriend and all," Rei added. Ti'ana sniffled
and looked up at them.
"No, not any more. He dumped me," she replied.
"What?" they asked at the same time. Ti'ana nodded.
"Tonight. Said something about doing something he should have done long
ago," she replied. The three were trying very hard not to jump for joy at this
news. Ti'ana, on the other had, was ready to cry. She had been going out with
him for over a year, and to just break it off like this was such a supprise. But
she had a feeling it had to do with Usagi, and she just had to talk to her.
"We don't know where she is, or she'd be with us," Ami said. Ti'ana smiled
weakly.
"Thanks anyway," As she turned and walked away, the group noticed a small
purple speck in the sky, but paid it no mind.
~*~*~
Usagi sat on a park bench, watching the stars come out. As the temperature
had dropped, she found herself wrapped in her small coat, arms around her knees,
rocking back and forth. She should of known this would happen, but she had hoped
it wouldn't. As she sat there, a purple speck came from the sky, and she thought
it a shooting star. Closing her eyes, she wished that everything were the way it
had been before she left.
She wasn't expecting to see Sailorpluto and a strange, dark man land on
the grass across from her.
"Pluto?" she asked, standing up and walking over to them. As she did,
Pluto de-transformed into Meiou Setsuna, and looked up at the odangoed girl
before standing up. Emer stood also, looking at how much earth had changed since
the last time he saw it.
"Usagi? You're back?" Setsuna asked.
"For the most par-" It was then she saw Emer under a street lamp. "Who is
this?" she stuttered.
"Usagi, this is Emerlan," Setsuna said. "Endymion's brother."
Now, it could be said that many emotions and thought were going through
all persons involved in this less than nice reunion. First things first, Mamoru
found himself jumping to the ground and standing in front of the blond before
