**** 13 ****

The madman whose name was Doug Sandstone had taken Usagi hostage and
he started to walk down the center of the walkway and continued to walk towards
the door. Usagi tried to stiffen her legs so he would have a more difficult time of
carrying her out of the courthouse. However, Usagi wasn't strong enough to stop
him and he drug her out anyway.

He made his way to the entrance and went outside. He tried to figure what he would
do next. he thought that he could Usagi as a human shield in robbing a bank to help
him escape the area easier. He eventually ruled out robbing a bank and he would make
demands for his escape from the area.

The FBI and the local police surrounded the area. One of the FBI agents got a megaphone
and spoke through it to try and negotiate a release of Usagi. However negotiating a
release actually made Doug angry. He didn't like that. He was determined to take her with
him wherever he decided to go. Usagi also decided to plead her way out of his arms.

"Please let me go... please."

Usagi begged to be freed and this too made him angry and he used the end of his gun
and hit her ribs as hard as he could. Usagi a cry of pain as Andrea Williamson watched
in horror and she could do nothing to save her friend that was more like a sister to her.

"Please let the girl go."

The agent with the megaphone tried to convince Doug to let the girl go, but he simply
refused and wouldn't do it. The FBI and the police weighed their actions of what
they could do. They decided to see what Doug wanted and also call in a S.W.A.T. sniper
team to fire a dart that would make Doug Sandstone sleep. That was the only way they
could rescue Usagi and prevent her from being killed by this madman if worse came
to worse.

"What do you want Doug Sandstone?"

The agent with the megaphone asked him. The sniper team was still several minutes
away and they had to buy some time until they arrived.

"I want a car and $500,000 cash in unmarked bills and in twenties."

Doug Sandstone answered the agent. he made his demands simple.

"In order for us to grant your request, you must let the girl go. Agreed?"

The agent asked him to free the girl once Doug's request was granted. However,
Doug would not fulfill his part of the bargain and he really intended on keeping Usagi.
Usagi weighed her options in this matter, she knew she couldn't do anything but
beg. But begging wasn't a good thing to do, but she realized she had no choice.

"Please let me go!"

Usagi begged again and he hurt her ribs hard once again and she cried in pain.

"You be quiet! You have no say in this matter!"

Doug told Usagi. The FBI continued to negotiate for Usagi's release but, it fell on deaf
ears. Andrea watched in horror as her friend was being hurt by this mad man and there
was no way out of this terrible situation. Usagi didn't understand why Doug had captured
her, but she didn't want to be there to be the target of his anger. Usagi knew she was powerless.
She remained silent and would not cry out again for her life knowing that she had no hope.

Doug continued to walk away to the parking lot. There was some empty spaces. Usagi tried
not to give him a chance for him to flee by stiffening up her legs. She thought maybe using all
her strength to make it difficult could buy the agents some time for them to mount a rescue.
However, Doug did not like this and hit her in the ribs for her to release her legs. Usagi was
stubborn and refused what he requested. Usagi wouldn't give in to what he wanted. Her life
depended on her risky actions.

Usagi and Doug was in a battle against wills. Usagi didn't know it, but she realized that she
was Sailor Moon. Andrea had told Usagi about the Sailor Senshi and their battle against evil.
Andrea explained that Sailor Moon was her favorite of all the Senshi. However, Andrea liked
all the Senshi. Andrea even had a picture of all the Senshi and she showed the picture of
the Senshi and Usagi was amazed by the picture. Usagi felt something about Sailor Moon.
Usagi had asked the other day about Sailor Moon and Andrea explained that Sailor Moon hadn't
appeared in Tokyo for quite some time and Andrea just explained their was no monster attack
and she wasn't needed at the moment. What Andrea didn't know, that the girl who could transform
into Sailor Moon was in her care. She would find out later that Usagi and Sailor Moon was one
and the same girl. Usagi loved all the Senshi when Andrea showed the picture. Usagi took a liking
to Sailor Mars and Sailor Uranus. Usagi couldn't explain why. Usagi knew deep inside their was
some hidden significance about these two young Senshi.

The FBI continued to negotiate the release of Usagi but this was a stalemate and this wasn't
working. Time was running out on trying to free Usagi from this madman's clutches.
