UsakoLovesMamo: "I am so sorry that I haven't written in ages! My poor fans, I've kept you waiting!" tears up "It's just that so much has happened these few months."
Usako: "That's ok UsakoLovesMamo. We forgot about you anyways."
Mamo-chan: "Usako don't say that! You know you were always bothering me asking me what was going to happen next! You couldn't wait till she wrote again!"
UsakoLovesMamo: "Really? Is that true Usako?!"
Usako: "Yeah, yeah. OK you got me. I really want to know what's going to happen next…"
UsakoLovesMamo: "Really?! Why didn't you say so…come with me!"
Usako: starts jumping up and down "YAY! I get a sneak peek!"
Mamo-chan: "Alright." Sighs "Well don't forget she doesn't own Sailor Moon OK? This is just a FANFIC!"
Usako: "Yeah, yeah, Mamo-chan. whatever, just get your ass over here…or were going to leave you behind!"

The Crystal Rose

Last Chapter:
Something was wrong they could feel it; this man was after something close to home. If only they knew how close to home it really was.
Chapter 4:
Back at home Usagi was in an uneasy sleep, a cold sweat taking over her body. Her body and mind sensed something was wrong, but Usagi was in a deep sleep. The moon shone over her, her sweat glistening. She then abruptly awoke breathing hard. 'What is this uneasy feeling I have?' She looked around her room lit up by the moons shine. She didn't see anything out of the ordinary. But then her view fell upon a white rose by her hands. "Darien? Are you there?" No answer. 'He must have left.' She took the white rose in her hands and smelled its sweet perfume. She placed the white rose on her bedside table and went back to sleep. But in the back of her mind the feeling of unease was still pounding loudly in her mind. But none the less she fell asleep and dreamt of her beloved prince, and erased the unease of her mind.
The next morning Usagi awoke the bright sun rays on her face. She sighed and slowly got up from her bed, thanking god it was summer. She lazily looked at the clothes she had put out the other day, today the group was going to have a lot of fun again. She didn't once think of her vision or that mysterious man.
Mamoru was sitting at the arcade waiting for Usagi and the rest of the girls. Today was going to be a long day. The girls were going to drag him to the mall. "Hey Mamoru, what's wrong you look like you could just die…" Andrew hi best friend and college buddy said placing a cup of coffee in front of Mamoru. "The girls are dragging me out for a shopping spree today…" he replied, a gloomy look on his face. "Then why are you so down? It should be a lot of fun!" Andrew replied sarcastically, but his laughing was cut short by the jingling of the bell on the front door. "Looks like your doom has arrived my friend!" Andrew said once more laughing all the way to the other side of the counter running from Mamoru's death glares. 'Oh great here we go. Its torture Chiba Mamoru Day!' he inwardly said while turning around in the stool to great the girls.
"Mamo-chan!" Usagi screamed as she ran towards her love, practically throwing him off of his stool. "It's great to see you too Usako, but do you have to choke me?" He said while slowly pulling her away from him to then give her a peck on the lips. "Eww! Please no public display of affection!" the group of four girls said as they just stood there watching the whole scene. "Sorry girls, if you don't like what you se then don't look." Usagi said tightly holding Mamoru by the waist. "Hey wait I just noticed, where's Chibi-Usa?" Mamoru said mentally counting the on looking group. "She didn't come; she stayed home baking with mom." "Oh. Ok. Well anyways let's get going then, we don't have all day." And with that all the girls and Mamoru said good bye to Andrew and made their way out of the arcade. Walking down the sidewalk Mamoru took the time to appreciate the beauty beside him. Wearing that lovely white sundress made her golden hair stand out in the sun. Looking at her flowing locks, he notices something that's not usually there.
"Usako. Were did you get that white rose from? It looks beautiful in your hair." Mamoru said slightly caressing her shoulders and the nape of her neck as the walked together. "What do you mean? You know where it's from Mamo-chan." She said looking at him with playful eyes, while a slight blush appeared in her cheeks. "No Usako I don't. Where did you get it?" He said as he stopped walking, now the others noticed their conversation and stopped walking as well. "Mamo-chan stop playing! You know where its from!" Usagi said slapping her boyfriends shoulder playfully. "No I don't!" He said frustrated. 'How can a simple question be so hard to answer!' "Usagi he says he doesn't know where its from. Just tell him so when can get to the god damn mall already. We've wasted enough time with this stupid question." Rei yelled looking as though you she were going to burst in flames. "But…" was all Usagi could say before the weirdest thing started to happen.
