I know, i haven't updated anything in AGES. Especially WTWML. (On that note if anyone has read it and has any suggestions i am currently unable to do anything but bash my head on the keyboard at the moment... i really want to continue it but i NEED help!) Anyway. On with my own totally insane whirlwind of a creation, i don't even remember writing most of this i think i was in my own little world lol. It's all quite cliche but sometimes i like that kind of stuff. Anyway, finally we get to see how Mitsuko and her friends fit into the Senshi area of the story!


The next day everyone was assembled near the gates, Mitsuko, Hoshi and Mizuki were all stood together of course, with a couple of others. The three lights were back and stood not far away. Mitsuko had soon found herself back to normal as Yaten made his usual comment and she found herself wishing he'd stayed away longer. The teacher was stood in front of them putting them into groups.

"Group six, Aino Minako, Tsukino Usagi…" Mina and Usagi clapped their hands and leapt together "…Kita Mizuki, Tomo Haruko and Hino Mikosa," Mizuki groaned and with a pat on the back from her two friends she walked away.

"Group seven Koizumi Hoshi, Tsuuriki Mitsuko,"

"Yes,"

"Kou Seiya, Kou Yaten, and Shinto Yoshi," Mitsuko sighed, she should have known he'd be in her group; she wouldn't put it past him to have fixed the lists. Yoshi who had been one of the girls stood with them, the same one that had spread the rumours about her weeks ago, was talking with Hoshi, of course Mitsuko had dropped that grudge ages ago, after all it would be easy to think the wrong thing in that situation. Other groups around them were staring jealously at them, understandable since they had two of the idols in their group. Yaten gave his usual wink as he walked over and she turned around to join Hoshi and Yoshi's conversation.

They all met up with their guides at the entrance to the university and headed off in different directions, Mitsuko noticed Seiya staring longingly after Usagi as she headed off down the corridor opposite them.

The place was huge, how Mizuki ever managed to find Tomomi in this mass of different buildings and corridors within buildings was beyond both Mitsuko and Hoshi, they listened to their guide but there was so much to take in that it had pretty much filtered out by the end, they noticed Tomomi as they walked into one of the lecture rooms, she waved at them briefly and smiled before turning back to taking her notes.

Once the initial tour was over each group was given a map and allowed to have a wonder around themselves to pick up information on courses they were interested in.

"So where are we going first?" Chirped Yoshi "I'd like to see the arts centre again," Seiya agreed and so did Hoshi, as the drama centre was right beside it. The only two not so excited were Yaten and Mitsuko; art wasn't really their area of expertise.

"I'll wait out here,"

"You sure…?" Hoshi looked at her

"Yeah, art and drama, not a big whoop for me,"
"Well, okay we'll be as quick as we can then,"

Mitsuko watched as the others all entered the building that held the Arts department; she sighed and sat down on a bench. The sky, which had been clear blue, was being threatened with dark rain clouds and she shivered a little as a cold breeze blew over her. Sure enough a couple of minutes later raindrops hit her head, she wiped them away, getting up and heading into the building.

"I wondered how long it'd take you to get bored," she groaned and turned around, Yaten was leaning against a wall not to far away.

"I thought you went with the others,"
"What can I say, arts not a big whoop for me either," he grinned "So you didn't stick out there very long,"
"It's raining moron," She said pointing to the glass door she had just come through, droplets of rain were now running down it.

"Oh, and there I thought you just missed me," she froze; the words seemed to echo in her mind, miss him? She had missed him before; she'd missed this, the snappy retorts, why? It annoyed her, didn't it? These thoughts passed briefly through her head, but she regained herself in time to snap back.

"Miss you, why in the world would I do a stupid thing like that," she folded her arms and frowned, leaning opposite him. He smiled at her, and she wondered if he had noticed her hesitation, he walked over and she flinched looking away.

"I don't bite you know," he said leaning next to her. "Unless that's your kind of thing…" She turned a fiery glare on him

"Or not…" he said quickly, she huffed and turned away again.

"Hey, can I ask you a question, and you have to be honest," she looked at him confused.

"Depends on the question," she answered carefully and he smiled again.

"What's your favourite song?"

"What?" the confused look on her face intensified, what kind of a random question was that to just bring up all of a sudden?

"I just want to know," he looked innocent enough, but she couldn't help but get the feeling he was planning something.

"Er… well I guess I always liked On the Wings of Love, by Jeffrey Osborne…"

She watched his face but his expression didn't alter and he simply nodded.

"Okay, now I should be allowed to ask you a question," he looked down at her,

"Alright, fair's fair. Fire away," she turned her face back into a frown and looked him straight in the eye.

"Why are you always bugging me?" she said.

She half expected him to retort, or give a stupid answer, she even expected him to refuse to answer or put on some feigned offended front. What she didn't expect was the reply he gave her, almost immediately and without thought.

"Because I like you,"

Not another word was said, there wasn't anything Mitsuko could say to a reply like that, whether he was serious or not she didn't know, he certainly didn't seem to have had time to think it up on the spot, if it was a lie, unless he had anticipated her question. A few minutes later, much to her relief, Hoshi, Yoshi and Seiya came walking up and they headed back out.

"You're quiet Mitsu, you okay?" Hoshi looked at her worriedly. They were sat back in their homeroom at college, the rain was really pouring down outside so nobody was allowed outside for lunch-break.

"Huh, yeah I'm fine," she looked up smiling, but almost as soon as Hoshi went back to looking at the leaflet from the university's drama department, Mitsuko went back to her own thoughts. She couldn't exactly say it came as a shock, after all he had called up on her everyday, so he said, to make sure she was okay when she had been in hospital, and before that and after he had flirted with her a lot… it had just never really registered with her that he might actually like her. She'd passed it off as simply an annoyance.

Eugh she shook herself, this was going to drive her insane if she kept going over it, he probably just said it to get this effect anyway. The fact remained, that he was obnoxious, arrogant and down right annoying, she looked over at him; he was flicking through a magazine. He's kind of cute though… no Mitsuko, no way, don't even go there. She shook herself again and picked up a leaflet she'd got about the Psychology courses and tried to focus on it. Still she found herself looking up at him occasionally and she was glad when the bell went and she could hurry off to her Psychology lesson. She was also glad for the rain, which was still beating down hard at the end of the day, because it meant her and her friends were to busy focusing on getting home and staying dry than worrying about any problems she might be having.


"NO!"
"YES!"
"Hell no!"
"Hell yes!"

"There is absolutely no way you will get me to go in there!"

"Look it's just a store room," Yaten sighed and put his head in one hand.

"If it's just a store room why don't you go in?" She snapped.

"Why don't you?"

"There are spiders in there I hate spiders." He gave her a tired look.

"Spiders? You're scared of spiders."
"What of it," She sulked "Plenty of girls hate spiders," he shook his head,

"Fine," he reached out and twisted the handle, as he did so three enormous spiders ran from under the door, he leapt back in surprise and she shrieked and dashed behind him peeping out from behind his arm. The spiders started to grow and she shrieked again. This was a nightmare, growing spiders; her worst nightmare. She had been terrified of even tiny spiders since she was a little girl.

He pulled open the door to the storeroom and dragged her through, ignoring her cry of "What if there are more of them?" He slammed the door shut as the spiders now almost the size of a large dog leapt forward. She heard them smash against the door and without thinking she leapt forward in fear, clinging to his shirt as if it were her lifeline. He put his hands on both her shoulders and she lifted her head to look at him.

"Are you okay?" he whispered

She shook her head, breathing heavily. Suddenly, without warning, he leant quickly forward and captured her lips with his… she closed her eyes for a moment, not moving and then, for some reason she lifted her arms over his shoulders.

It was a few moments more before she moved back, the pressure on her lips was gone and she snapped her eyes open.

She found herself staring at her bedroom ceiling. Her cheeks began to glow red… Oh No! she blinked No I did not just dream that... she put her hand to her head and started to tap her forehead repeatedly as if to beat the memory of the dream out That was just wrong. She groaned and rolled over burying her head in her pillow, she didn't get much more sleep that night.


The next day she had Chemistry first thing, and she was dreading it, her depression was obvious to her friends, but it was raining again so they didn't get much chance to discuss it until they got inside the college.

"Mitsu, are you sure you're okay you've been away with the fairies for about a week now," Hoshi was frowning at her.

"What? It's nothing," She said quickly "Oh, I have to get to chemistry bye," she ran off and around the corner towards the chemistry block.

"She forgot homeroom… She knows she's going to be like half and hour early right?"

"I don't know but I'm kind of worried about her sanity." They both sighed and headed slowly off towards homeroom.

Mitsuko sighed and slowed down as she reached the Science block, boy was she going to be quizzed about this later. She didn't even know what she was so nervous about, so she'd had a dream about him, so what, it didn't mean anything. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath.

"Mind where you're walking with your eyes closed, you don't want another accident," she sighed and frowned again. Why did he have this horrible habit of popping up out of nowhere all the time? … It was beyond infuriating.

She opened her eyes and sure enough there he was leant against the wall beside their chemistry room door, a cocky grin on his face. It seemed he'd forgotten what he'd said to her the day before, only confirming her suspicions that he had simply made it up.

"What are you doing here?" she said looking pointedly away
"I couldn't be bothered with homeroom, and I have a lesson here, remember, we sit next to each other… don't tell me you're that good at ignoring me,"

"Hm," was her reply and she marched towards the door to the chemistry room.

"It's locked," she ignored him and turned the handle anyway, however he had been right.

"I told you. I'm not out here for the good of my health you know," she turned sharply and glared at him. He looked scared for a moment and stood up straight, backing away slightly.

"Woh, what have I done this time,"

She sighed and shook her head, folding her arms; her face softened somewhat. "Nothing, I just had a bad nights sleep,"

"Oh, why's that," she turned a confused face towards him; he looked concerned… why?

"Why do you care?"

He smiled at her and started to move towards her, she could have kicked her heart across the room for suddenly increasing its rate.

"I thought I answered that question yesterday," she felt herself go red and she looked down at the floor… no. No stop it she ordered herself, but she couldn't help it, he was right in front of her and the whole dream was coming back, causing her to go more and more red. She stepped backwards a couple of steps and, taking a deep breath, forced herself to look up.

Gah I wish now that I'd stayed with Hoshi and Mizu, all the questions in the world have to be better than this. Why's he looking at me like that anyway?

His eyes were searching her face; she avoided making direct eye contact. Finally she got completely fed up and let out an exasperated sigh.

"What the hell are you looking at?" she snapped, he opened his mouth to respond, but she noticed his usual grin, she knew what that meant and she didn't want to hear it, and held up her hands. "No wait, I don't want any of your stupid answers,"

"Stupid?" he pretended to look hurt.

"Don't give me all that 'pretty, beautiful, whatever' crap,"

"You're odd," she frowned, well that was hardly a step in the right direction.

"Oh yeah, why's that?"

"Are you allergic to honest compliments?"

"Honest ones no," she huffed.

"You don't trust me?"

"Have you ever given me reason too?" he laughed and she frowned harder, was he making fun of her or what?

"What's funny?"

"You," she stuttered, he was so blunt about it, and he was still laughing. She huffed again and folded her arms, turning her back on him. "Really?" He had finally stopped laughing. "How exactly am I funny,"

"Well, not really you, more your attitude,"

"What's wrong with my attitude?"

"Nothing generally, its just…" she winced as she realised he was stood really close behind her, he lowered his head so he was practically leaning on her shoulder.

"Its just kind of ironic, the first girl I show any interest in won't give me the time of day… its quite funny really." The words had the desired effect, she seemed to freeze up as he moved away, he waited, intrigued as to what her reply would be, or whether she wouldn't be able to come up with one.

After about thirty seconds silence, she finally managed to pull herself together and she span around and saw he was still watching her with interest. "Well," She snapped but noticing the teacher coming up behind him she stopped. The teacher opened the door and she walked in stalking past him and hissing.

"I'm glad you find my attitude so amusing, you'll be seeing a lot more of it," he smiled to himself and followed her into the room, a few other students were beginning to arrive. Mitsuko totally refused to talk to him for the rest of the lesson; for starters she was angry with him for laughing at her, but also because he had now confused her completely. She was still refusing to believe he actually liked her, but she wasn't sure why… he'd never given her any reason to doubt it… which brought her to why she was really angry, she wasn't sure now whether she was denying it because she truly didn't believe it or because she didn't want to believe it, because it made things easier. She knew she was being ridiculous, he obviously cared, what was confusing was she was now wondering whether she cared back… she had to admit that lying in that hospital bed for days she'd more than once wondered absentmindedly if he was worried about her, she'd put that down to a severe bump on the head and too much spare time. But then when she'd found out he had called up about her everyday… that had touched her heart, and she had been really happy to see him, again she had been on quite a few painkillers, but there was still no denying it. Even after coming back she had missed him for the week he was away and there was nothing to blame that on, but she had waved it off when he came back, his normal arrogant self and she had gone back to finding his company exceptionally annoying... although there was the difference now that, unlike before, some of the things he said made her heart beat a little faster and she would blush. She turned to look at him, for once he was actually doing his own work and she had space to breath, she looked away quickly as another realisation hit her… no matter how hard she tried, every time she looked at him her mind wondered onto how he wasn't so bad looking, in fact he was actually kind of cute…

"Alright, you should all have finished your notes," she looked up and saw their teacher had stood up, and looking back at her book she realised how little she'd written. As she stared at the page in her book, the words began to mingle together. Vaguely the teachers voice registered in the back of her mind, "If you could all turn to page two hundred and forty four in your text books," she rubbed her head and closed her eyes, but when she opened them everything was more blurred than before, and somewhere she thought she heard someone call her name… she looked around but everyone was looking at the teacher who was still talking. She shook her head and took a deep breath, but things just got worse. She pushed her chair back and stood up steadying herself on the table. She heard the teacher say to her "Are you alright Miss Tsuuriki?" he sounded as if he were talking from outside, she nodded and started to move around the table.

"I think I need some air," she wobbled a little and leant back on the table, the teacher was worried now and left his desk walking over. He put a hand to her forehead.

"Kou!" Yaten who was already halfway out of his chair in case he needed to move forward to catch her, she looked ready to collapse, stood up fully and moved over.

"Take Miss Tsuuriki to the nurse." She shook her head vigorously making the world spin faster than it was already. "I'm fine, I just need some air is all,"
"Tsuuriki you're burning up and you eyes are out of focus, you look like you're about to faint, you are going to see the nurse and that's final," she was barely able to move let alone protest, but she tried all the same. She moved away from the table and tried to steady herself, however all this achieved was that she stumbled backwards. Yaten was quick enough to stop her going far, and despite her muttering about being fine and for him to put her down he put one arm under her legs and lifted her off the floor and carried her out of the room and into the corridor taking a note from the teacher as he left.

"Put me down, I can manage," she murmured quietly. He looked down at her, she had her eyes barely open and she was as white as chalk.

"I'm not putting you down till we reach the nurse," she groaned and closed her eyes, she could still hear someone calling her name… where were they, she felt like she had to find whoever it was.

"I am perfectly okay you moron," her voice was practically a whisper by now.

"You look it, do you have any idea how pale you are,"

"Someone's calling me I have to go," she said, sounding half asleep.

"And you're hearing things," she sighed, she could feel how warm she was, she felt like she had a fever, all she wanted to do was sleep, maybe she could find whoever was calling her when she woke up... where was she anyway, she felt like she was moving. Wherever she was, she was comfortable; she fidgeted slightly and brought up a hand to hold onto whatever it was she was being carried by. Yaten looked down at her when he felt the touch on his shirt. She looked fast asleep; he smiled down at her, and was hardly able to believe this was the same girl who, just half an hour before, had been shouting at him, so strong willed and angry. She looked so peaceful and happy now.


Mitsuko woke up, or at least she assumed she was awake, when she looked around she realised this wasn't possible. She was lying in a seemingly endless field of yellow flowers. As she stood up she realised she was not longer in her college uniform, instead loose yellow ribbons were fluttering around her body in the gentle breeze. She didn't feel very bothered about it, she was more worried as to exactly what was going on, if this was a dream it sure as hell felt real. Once again that strange voice sounded through the air and without thinking she began to move towards it.

After what seemed like hours of tireless walking she reached huge grassy area with no flowers in it. She looked out across it and in the distance she thought she could see the beginning of a row of pink flowers, however she turned her attention away from these and looked ahead to the centre where a bright light was shining. She started to walk towards it. As she got closer she noticed three figures already stood around the light, looking up at it in wonder. As the wondered closer she realised the figures were her friends. They were all clothed in ribbon just like her, Tomomi in pink, Hoshi in white, and Mizuki in black. She looked at each in turn and they looked away from the shining light to welcome her.

"Your last, as usual" Grinned Hoshi

"What's going on?" said Mitsuko looking up to the light in front of them.

"We don't know," came Mizuki's voice

"One minute I was falling asleep in my art lecture, the next I was waking up in a field of pink flowers," came Tomomi's

"All will be explained now," the light ahead of them pulsed and then began to stretch. It moulded in front of their eyes, into the shape of a woman. She wore a long pale sleeveless green dress; her long light brown hair fell all the way to the floor. Her face was pale and spotless, she had light brown eyes to match her hair and her china doll like mouth was turned up slightly into a kind smile.

"Welcome, my daughters," Her voice was sweet and musical, drifting on the soft breeze like an ancient lullaby from thousands of years past. The girls stood staring in awe at her.

It was Tomomi who first found her voice, "I'm sorry… I don't understand," She said looking into the woman's emerald eyes. They twinkled and smiled back at her.

"Dearest daughters, you will understand,"

"You keep saying daughters… but, we are not even all sisters," Said Hoshi taking a step forward but stopping as the woman turned her sparkling eyes on her.

"No, not in this life… but long ago you were. Let me show you,"

Suddenly the petals from the fields around them blew in their direction and circled around them like multi coloured snow, when they died down the woman had vanished and they were standing in what seemed to be a beautiful bedroom. The walls of the room were purest white and the floor a delicate shade of pale green, this colour was matched in the panelling around the room and these had streaks of gold in a flowery pattern weaved through them. In the centre of the room was a large four-poster bed; it's posts white and the sheets the same green. From where they were standing they could just make out someone lying on the bed. For a few moments they all simply stared around them, briefly they noted that they were now clothed in pure white robes, rather than the multicoloured ribbons, but their trance was broken as the doors behind them flew open and a little girl with short pink hair came dashing in. A maid followed quickly behind her.

"Mama!" the little girl squealed throwing herself onto the bed. Neither her nor the maid seemed to have noticed the girls standing there. Mitsuko began to move towards the bed to get a closer look, beckoning to the others who followed. As they reached it they realised the person they had noticed lying on the bed was the same woman that they had just been talking too. She was dressed in a long white night gown and looked fairly exhausted but just as beautiful. She pulled the little girl closer to her and held her.

"Mama, Li says that my sisters have come at last," The woman looked up at the maid who bowed and started apologising for not keeping the girl under control.

"Li, please do not worry, I was about to summon for her anyway," She said kindly reaching out a delicate looking hand and touching the young maids still bowed face. Li muttered an embarrassed 'thank you my lady' and then began to back slowly out of the room.

Once she was gone the woman let go of the little pink haired girl and began to slowly get off the bed. Once she was stood she held out her hand to the child who hopped off the bed and took it at once.

"Now, we will go visit your sisters, remember you must be very quiet for they are asleep," The little girl nodded and the two began to walk towards another door on the opposite side of the room. The four girls followed behind them into a smaller and brightly coloured room. In this room were three different coloured cribs; the one furthest from them was yellow, the middle one was blue and the closest was white. The small pink haired girl ran from one to the other and gazed through the bars.

"Mama they have strange markings on their heads," The woman gave a small smile and nodded. Mitsuko and the others each peered into the cribs and saw what the little girl meant; upon each of the babies heads were small symbols that they had never seen before.

"They will vanish shortly, you had one when you were born my darling," The girl looked up at her in amazement.

"I did,"

"Yes," she said bending down and picking up the child, who put her small arms around her mother's neck. They both gazed back at the three tiny children.

"What are their names?" Said the little girl.

"Like you dearest, they will come to have many names… but for now I have named my little sunlight Mitsuko, my starlight Hoshi, and for little moonlight the name Mizuki,"

Each of the girls gasped in turn and looked into their own cribs and saw their own tiny forms sleeping serenely. Tomomi looked at Mizuki and then back up at the little girl sat in her mother's arms. The others followed her gaze after a while.

After a few more minutes the woman placed the little girl back on the floor.

"Now my little Tomomi, run along, and don't give poor Li too much trouble okay?"

Little Tomomi nodded with a huge smile on her face and she ran back out of the room. Her mother watched her go and then turned back to the three children, a look of sadness had now crossed her flawless face.

"My poor little princesses, if only you knew what troubles I must leave you with one day," She bowed her head and a single tear fell down her face and splashed to the floor.

Once again petals began to swirl around them and they were soon stood back in the field, back in their ribbons and all completely amazed and slightly freaked out by what they had just witnessed. The woman, their mother, was stood exactly where she had been, a kind smile on her face.

"That I'm afraid is all I can show you of your past… the rest must come to you in time," They all looked at one another and then back at her.

"Why did you bring us here?" Said Mizuki stepping away from the group.

"Long ago you all fought in a great battle, however, you were stripped of your memories and with the last ounce of strength you possessed you sent your spirits to earth to be reborn. This was many thousands of years ago… now an evil is rising and your powers are needed once again."

"Woh wait a second…" Mitsuko stepped up next to Mizuki; all of this was making her brain spin "We don't have any powers,"

The woman simply smiled again, "You are simply unconscious of your abilities… but you will come to understand them with these." She opened her hands and in them the four girls saw four shaped stones of different colours. One by one the stones raised into the air. The woman turned to face Tomomi.

"My eldest daughter Tomomi… you were born with the symbol of love and friendship and that is your gift." The small pink heart shaped crystal disappeared and reappeared in Tomomi's outstretched hand. The woman now turned to Mizuki.

"Mizuki, you were born with the symbol of the infinite moons and so that is your gift," The black crescent moon crystal appeared in her hand.

"Hoshi, the symbol of the infinite stars was yours," the pale blue star appeared in her hand.

"And Mitsuko, you were born with the symbol of the infinite suns," A small sun shaped yellow crystal appeared in Mitsuko's hand.

Each of the girls stared at the crystals in their palms; they were even more confused than before.

"I'm sorry I still don't understand… who are you?"

The woman smiled again. "My name is Kiyoshi, though I am also called Queen Aikido… I am the guardian of the infinite universe."

"But… if that is true why can you not defeat this evil you spoke of…" Kiyoshi's smile stayed the same but behind her eyes was a look of sadness.

"It is not my place to fight… that is the job of the sailor Senshi. However it soon became apparent that while the Senshi did the best they could there was one evil that would always overcome them…" She paused, "I cannot say any more about this evil, only that as the daughters of the Universal Guardian, it fell to you to aid the Senshi in their quest for peace against this threat, and now they need your aid once again. Every planet in the universe has it's own Senshi to protect it… but you… you hold the power over the other guardian bodies of the universe… the Suns, the Stars and the Moons." Now she turned to Tomomi and reached out a hand to brush her face, Tomomi's eyes closed and a happy childlike expression came upon her.

"And the love that unites them,"

She stepped back again and Tomomi's eyes opened again and all four watched Kiyoshi in silence for a few minutes.

"Hang on," Said Hoshi suddenly, "You said the Sun and the Stars… well aren't the Stars and Suns the same thing?" Mitsuko looked at her and then nodded in agreement.

"I'm glad to see my daughters are still as intelligent and questioning as ever," Kiyoshi said with a small laugh, "It is true that the suns are stars… the two of you will have always felt a strange connection I expect…" They both glanced at each other; it was true that they had always been closer to one another than to Tomomi and Mizuki, though only slightly.

"That is because you share a deity, Mitsuko, your power is over the daylight and the fiery powers of the Suns. Little Hoshi… your power is over the nighttimes and the mystical powers of the Stars,"

They nodded quietly and she turned around and began to walk away.

"Wait!" They all cried in unison… she didn't turn to them.

"I'm afraid my time is up… I cannot tell you any more. The rest you must discover in your own time," and then quite suddenly, she was gone, leaving them stood staring away into a field of golden and white flowers that hadn't been their before.


Yeah... i really wasn't concentrating on half of this xD. Anywho, review PLEASE, and message me or review on WTWML if you have any ideas that would help me. I'm tearing my hair out over it, and then i've got about 5 other stories that i've had to write plans for because they seemed like such a good idea and i didn't want to lose them. Then of course i have exams in 3 weeks, Christmas tomorrow with my Grandparents and an aging Great Aunt (Together with a very excitable puppy should make for a very interesting day!) so my head is just a total mess at the moment.

I need to lie down Ciao xStephx
