I do not own Sailor Moon...sighs unhappily.

Chapter Four: Figure Out


"MARS FIRE IGNITE!"

The flames hit the youma square in the chest and it fell to the ground, howling in pain. Sailor Mars, Jupiter and Mercury had arrived in the park just in time; the youma was attacking everyone left, right and centre, with its long, greenish tentacles.

The other senshi beamed at Sailor Mars. She grinned back at them.

"No one messes with fire!" She yelled, triumphantly.

"Except me!" The youma screamed, getting up and grabbing Sailor Mars with one of its tentacles.

Sailor Mars writhed in pain; she was quickly losing oxygen.

"Help me, you guys, help me..." She called out weakly.

Jupiter scowled at the youma.

"Don't worry, I'll get you out!"

Suddenly a rose flashed before their eyes and cut off the tentacle that was holding Mars. She fell to the ground, gasping for air. Sailor Jupiter and Mercury looked up to see Tuxedo Kamen, standing on a tree looking down upon them.

"Tuxedo Kamen, you came!" Mercury said, thankfully.

"This park is a place of peace and quiet but you show up and destroy this. I, Tuxedo Kamen, will not allow it!" Jumping gracefully down from the tree, he stood a few metres away from the Youma. It grinned evilly and cackled.

"Oh yeah, Cape boy? And you think you're going to stop me?" The youma screeched, attacking Tuxedo Kamen with two tentacles. Tuxedo Mask dodged the attack and kept dodging it. The youma simply smirked.

"You can't escape me forever!" It laughed madly.

The senshi were on the ground, helping Sailor Mars, seeing if she was okay.

"VENUS CRESCENT BEAM SMASH!"

The attack hit the youma and it screeched, howling once again. It brought its tentacles back. Everyone turned to see Sailor Venus standing at the park's entrance, striking her pose. The sound of panting was followed and Sailor Moon ran in, glaring at Venus.

"You didn't have to run so fast!" She snapped, bending over to catch her breath. The remaining senshi were on their feet again, rolling their eyes at Sailor Moon. Sailor Moon glanced up and looked around.

"Where's Tuxedo Kamen?" She asked all-too-casually.

The senshi looked around and only saw the youma on the ground writhing in pain.

Sailor Jupiter shrugged.

"He was here, he must have thought, now you guys have arrived, that we got things under control."

Tuxedo Kamen, was, in fact, behind one of the bushes, and promised himself to stay there until the youma was dusted. Just in case the Senshi needed his help. His need to stay near Sailor Moon was still strong. He crouched slow and listened to very word they said.

"What do you care, Odango? All you ever do is go on about is Tuxedo Kamen; no one cares!" Sailor Mars muttered loudly, making sure that Sailor Moon would hear her. Tuxedo Kamen did a double take. What did Sailor Mars just call Sailor Moon? Odango? No. No. She couldn't possibly be...

Sailor Moon looked up and glared angrily at Sailor Mars.

"Why I outta..." She started to threaten. Sailor Mars smirked, wanting her to retort.

"It doesn't even matter. Just dust the thing Sailor Moon so we can go home!" Sailor Mercury cried, exasperated.

Sailor Moon muttered something incoherently under her breath as she started up her attack.

"MOON TIARA MAGIC!"

The attack hit the howling youma and in a flash, it was nothing more than a pile of dust.

Sailor Moon, jumped up and down, squealing in delight.

"I dusted it, I dusted it!" She sang happily.

Sailor Mars rolled her eyes.

"Yeah, with no help from us, of course." She snapped at Sailor Moon. Sailor Moon stopped jumping and smiled playfully at her friend.

"Awk, you did a little Mars, but I was the one who finished him off!" She grinned and stuck out her tongue as the Senshi began to leave.

"Anyway," Venus said happily, "See you all tomorrow after school, normal place, yeah?"

The girls all nodded smiling broadly, each one waving at the other before sprinting off into different directions.

The park was deadly quiet. The only sound was the soft breathing coming from Tuxedo Kamen.

He got up and stared at where Sailor Moon was just standing. The more he thought about it, the more it made sense. They both had the same hair colour and weird hairstyle. Both were clumsy and irresponsible. Both undeniably pretty. Wait- What? Did I just call Odango pretty? He shrugged. Well she kind of was. But just a kid. Just 15. Hardly his type, right? Not like the princess in his dreams. Now she was something. Even though he couldn't really see her that well. She never showed him her face. But he knew that she and he were meant to be. He just needed Sailor Moon to see this, get her help. After all, the senshi were looking for the princess also, were they not?

He shrugged again.

However, there was one thing he was sure of. Usagi would never tell him, Mamoru, that she was Sailor Moon.

He rose slowly from his crouched position, smirking like a Cheshire cat as he walked out of Lake Park.

Tomorrow was going to be a fun and interesting day, Mamoru thought, taking out a rose from his pocket and thinking of Usagi.

Thing was, Mamoru did not realise how wrong he would be.
