I do not own Sailor moon, or any of it's Characters.

I created own Character: Sailor Star Striker. Also created Usagi's new power and attack.

Created new evil: Darkness and his army.

USAGI

I can't believe Seiya thought I wanted Striker. I guess it's my fault. We hadn't spoken, or seen each other, then Striker went and pledged her loyalty to me, which I had no knowledge of. I can see how it must have looked, but it still hurt.

She picked me up in her arms, and took me to her room. I sat there gazing into her eyes, while she wiped my face. She was still in her Starlight transformation, and I knew it was time she knew the truth. So I told her everything.

I knew it would hurt her, and I tried to leave, but she stopped me. I could see she was struggling with what I had told her, but I wanted to make sure she knew I loved her, so I kissed her.

I felt her kiss me back eventually, placing me on the basin once again. I had never experienced a kiss like it before. I had kissed Mamo Chan many times, but never felt such love, or have my body feel so alive. I hoped my lips were sending my message, that I love her and want to be with her.

Something burst inside me. I felt, warm, and full of hope. I remember feeling this way. It was along time ago, but I knew it was happiness. I ended the kiss, opening my eyes to see hers looking back at me. I smiled. Not a forced one, or awkward, but an honest one.

I told her I loved her, and she said it back. My body was feeling excited. I'd never felt this before. I had to kiss her again, but also wanted more.

I hopped of the basin, and wrapped my arms around her. Big mistake. Being so close to her sent my heart into overdrive. I needed to get out of there, so I told her we would talk tomorrow, then kissed her cheek, before left. I went straight to my room, and took a shower. The water helped me relax, and calm myself down, though I couldn't stop thinking about that kiss. I got out, and dressed, then braided my hair, before getting into bed. My head hit the pillow, and my eyes closed.

"I can't wait any longer Princess. I will find a way to destroy you".

I could feel my body moving, but couldn't control it, then suddenly I felt like I was falling.

"Odango, wake up, I'm here".

I opened my eyes, and saw Seiya's worried face. I snuggled into her, and asked her not to leave. She said she wasn't going anywhere, then we got into bed, and I laid on her chest, with her arms around me. My body was tingling at her closeness, as I heard her whisper my name, but I didn't answer. I can't believe I kissed her. I may have a chance at living the life I want, so I just laid there, listening to her heartbeat, till I fell asleep.

"Well Princess, if I can't get you there, I will find a way to bring you here. Maybe your little sister can help me".

I woke up, with sweat dripping off me, to find Seiya wasn't there, so I jumped out of bed. I heard a noise in the bathroom, but didn't look. I ran straight to Striker's room, and entered. She was still asleep, so I went straight over to her, and started shaking her.

"Striker, wake up".

She opened her eyes, and sat up.

"Usagi what's wrong?", she cried.

"He knows about my family, I have to go home".

She jumped out of bed, and we ran to find the Scouts. They weren't really happy with the early morning wake up call, but jumped into gear when I explained what I heard. I wrote Seiya a note, and slipped it under her door.

I met the Scouts outside, then we tansformed and left.

SEIYA

I woke this morning, to find Odango asleep in my arms. I still can't believe she kissed me. A vision of her hanging over the balcony, popped into my head, and made me cringe. She seemed to be sleeping peacefully, so I slid out of bed, and went over to the window. I looked out, and fear shot through me. I was four storeys up, meaning Odango would have died.

I turned and sat, leaning against the wall. I could hear her little snore, and knew she was okay, but for how much longer. I could feel my body heat up, as my frustration and anger built up.

I went into the bathroom, and ran a shower. The water was cold, but it helped. I dressed, then went back into the bedroom, to find Odango gone. I ran to Striker's room, and entered, to find no one was there. I went to my room, and as I entered, I felt something under my foot. I bent down, and found a folded piece of paper, and as I opened it, my heart stopped.

Seiya,

I have to go home. I'm sorry. Be happy.

Love Usagi.

GONG

I ran out of my room, bumping into Taiki and Yaten.

"What's going on?", Yaten asked.

"She went home", I cried, running to check the Scouts rooms.

They were all empty. Taiki and Yaten followed me outside, but they were gone.

I fell to my knees, with her note still in my hand, so I read it again. Was she telling me she was never coming back?.

"What's going on?", Princess Kakyuu asked, coming towards us.

I couldn't look at her, as my tears had burst. I was so close to having her be mine.

"They left", Taiki informed her.

No one spoke, and the silence was deafening.

"Go to Earth, and see that they are alright", the Princess ordered.

I rose, and looked at Taiki and Yaten, who nodded.

USAGI

We landed on Earth, at the Shrine. It was morning, and quiet.

"You guys go get the others, Striker and I will go to my house. Meet you there", I ordered.

They left running, as did Striker and I. Please let my family be okay.

We arrived at my house, and without thinking, I barged through the door. I found my family sitting at the kitchen table, eating breakfast. They all turned to look at me in shock.

"Usagi", Chibi Chibi squealed, running towards me.

I caught her, and hugged her. Thank god she was safe.

"Usagi what are you wearing?", Mum asked horrified.

I realised then, I was still in my Sailor Moon transformation. Oh no. This is awkward, but I didn't have time to explain.

"Mum, Dad, please listen. You have to go somewhere, don't tell me where, just go. Get out of town please", I begged them.

They looked at me, with wonder.

"You're Sailor Moon", Shingo cried.

I looked at him, seeing his eyes wide with amazement. I remember people at school mentioning my name, after the battle with Galaxia. No one knew it was me, and I never thought my family would find out this way, but it was too late now.

"Yes", I answered.

I told my parents everything. Not about been reborn, or anything from my past. I told them about Striker, who had remembered to transform into male form, but didn't tell them he was really a she. I told them about the Scouts, and how I am proud to fight for the safety of the planet, and that someone was after me, and had made threats against them. I didn't mention almost dying, or the injuries I was suffering from. I just needed them to listen to my warning.

They stared at me for ages, and I didn't think they would ever speak again. Finally my Mum walked over to me, where I was standing in the doorway, holding Striker's hand. She put her hands to my face.

"Usagi, my little girl. I am so proud of you, and although I don't quite understand, I will do as you wish", she sobbed.

I could hear the fear in her voice, before she turned to Striker, and hugged him.

"Thankyou for keeping my daughter safe, and when this is all over, please consider this your home, and us your family", she sobbed, standing on tip toe, and kissing his forehead.

"Thankyou", Striker bowed.

My Dad then came to shake his hand, then hug me.

I let my transformation go, once I was in my room. I helped Chibi Chibi pack, although she wanted to stay and help. I told her I needed her to look after our family, which she finally accepted. Striker and I watched them drive off, once they were ready. I told them, I would find them when I could. I hope they will be alright.

The Scouts arrived seconds later, and I explained what was going on.

"So what do we do now?", Makoto asked.

"We wait", I replied.

We spent the day making plans, and discussing Darkness. It was dark when they went home, leaving Striker and I alone.

We went inside, and got ready for bed. Striker was making himself comfy on the couch.

"Um, Striker, could you sleep with me tonight, please?", I asked feeling embarassed.

"Of course", he replied.

He followed me into my room. I felt nervous, but knew he was only there to protect me. We got into bed, with both of us lying on our backs.

I thought about Seiya. The note I left her, was short, and missing what I really wanted to say. I didn't want to say I'd return, just in case I can't. I hope she is okay. I miss her so much, and I have the feeling that if Seiya and I are ever going to be together, we are going to have to fight for it.

I started crying, as my heart was breaking. I was so close to being happy, and now I don't know what's going to happen. Striker pulled me into his chest, running his fingers soothingly through my hair. I wrapped my arms around him, and I felt like I was been watched, but thought nothing of it. I really wish Seiya was here.

SEIYA

It was morning, when we landed on Earth, and we were in the park, as I sat down on a bench. It felt good to be back.

"So what do we do first?", Yaten asked.

"I think we should go see Usagi. At least check to see she is okay", I replied.

I didn't want to tell them about between her and I. At least till I know what is going on between us.

"I think maybe we should lie low. Just be here in case, and not let them see us", Taiki suggested.

We all agreed, though it was going to be hard.

We decided to first go to our apartment, and wait. Before we left Earth, the Princess suggested we keep it. We stayed in our Starlight transformations, just in case, and waited till it was dark before leaving.

We arrived at her house, to see the Scouts leaving. We watched them walk off, then slowly crept up to the house. I saw the lights go out, on the bottom floor, then two shadows appeared on the top floor. I remember walking past here, and seeing Odango on the balcony. I knew it was her room, as I had been in there before. The light went out, as I started walking towards the house.

"Seiya, what are you doing?", Taiki whispered.

I didn't respond, as I jumped, landing on the balcony. I looked in through the window, and saw Striker and Odango, holding each other. I know they said they didn't see each other that way, but to see them like that hurt. I want to be the one who holds her, to be the one she needs.

We went back to our apartment, where I went straight to my room, and after transforming into my male form, I laid on my bed. I couldn't help but think I should have stayed on Kinmoku. I should have found that thing that made her safe.

I woke the next day, feeling somewhat sluggish. I took a shower, which helped revive me. I met Taiki and Yaten in the kitchen. It was lunch time, and we decided to go out for something to eat, but we thought we'd better disguise ourselves. Taiki went for just jeans and tshirt, which is so unlike him, and Yaten went with the same. I wore jeans, but with a button up shirt. We all wore sunglasses, and plaited our hair, putting it under caps. I hope no one recognises us.

We then walked into the city. It hadn't changed much, but you could tell where the damage form Galaxia had been, as some of it still remained.

We found a little restaurant, and ate lunch. We discussed our plans, for keeping an eye on the Scouts, and decided to follow them around, just watching them.

We were walking through the park, when I spotted a group of people, standing around talking. As we got closer, I recognised Minako, and Striker. I then saw the pretty blonde on crutches, realising it was Odango. What happened?.

We ducked behind some bushes, and looked out.

She hobbled forward, then I watched them, as they headed towards us. I held my breath, hearing them talk as they passed.

"Everyone thinks Striker's your boyfriend", Minako laughed.

My heart stopped.

"Let them think that then. I didn't mind letting Mamo Chan think it when I saw him this morning", Odango stated giggling.

"So what are we going to do about you been injured?", Striker asked.

"Well I'm beginning to think I should have stayed on Kinmoku like I wanted to. But I didn't want to put the Starlights in danger, plus he threatened my family. I will fight if I have to".

Her words hit me hard. She didn't want to put us in danger, but wanted to stay with us. My heart swelled.

"Do you guys mind if we go shopping. I need to see about something", Odango asked.

I watched them walk away, and we decided to follow them.
