SailorStar9: With Chapter 87 out, this is Chapter 88 of this fic. Remember boys and girls, reviews are an author's subsistence. Really, is it so difficult for you guys to review instead of just putting this fic up in your favorites and alerts?

Pairings: Tieria/Ami, Mamoru/Usagi and quite possible Setsuna/Hotaru.

Just in case anyone is still confused, Kubo Satoshi is the Present Day Tieria Erde and Faheem Kamal is the Present Day Setsuna F. Seiei.

Standard BS Disclaimers: I do not own Sailor Moon, Gundam 00 or the pairings. If I did, the other Senshi would be as powerful as Sailor Moon and kicking MOTD ass more often and VEDA would have least an anti-hacker program installed. The only thing I do own is the plot.

Chapter 88: Daimons Can Be Purified? Chibi-Moon Gains A Bodyguard


Some time later...

"Small Lady." Setsuna stopped Chibi-Usa who was heading back home after school. "Hello, Small Lady."

"Puu!" Chibi-Usa beamed and hugged the Time Senshi. "Puu, you never come visit me to play." she pouted, the pair making themselves comfortable by the water fountain. "I thought that you have forgotten all about me."

"Small Lady, in this world, my name is Meiou Setsuna." Setsuna reminded.

"Then, I'll call you Set-chan." Chibi-Usa chirped.

"You are as you've always been, Small Lady." Setsuna giggled. "It seems that you have made a lot of friends. Is this day and age fun for you?"

"It's fun." Chibi-Usa nodded. "Everyone is very nice to me."

"I'm sure Neo-Queen Serenity sent you to this particular era because she wanted you to make many friends as a normal girl." Setsuna reasoned. "I'm sure it will be of help to you in the future, when you become Queen."

"Puu," Chibi-Usa spoke. "I can see you whenever I want from now on, right?"

"Yes, I promise you." Setsuna nodded.

"Bye bye, Puu!" Chibi-Usa bade farewell to the taller Senshi and ran back home.

"How cute." Haruka teased. "But to think that little one is the Princess who came from the future."

"Small Lady is the official heir to the throne of the Silver Millennium." Setsuna stated.

"Guess, we'll have to be careful and not hurt her." Hotaru stated.

"They are still collecting Pure Hearts." Michiru added. "And if it's as Hotaru guessed, it is for them to awaken the Messiah of Silence..."

"We must work to deal with that." Setsuna confirmed the Outer Senshi's next step."


In the Witches Four office...

"Mimete here." Mimete answered the call furiously. "I'm currently busy."

"It's me." Professor Tomoe voiced from the other side of the line. "How studious of you to be so busy right now. So, I can get the name of the next target, right? I'm counting on you, Mimete."


In Mistress Nine's room...

"I want to make this world mine quickly." Mistress Nine droned. "I want to make this world beautiful with my own hands."

"Please wait a little while longer." Professor Tomoe pleaded for more time.

"Pure Hearts..." Mistress Nine hissed. "Give me Pure Hearts quickly."


In the Juuban Public Library...

"Chibi-Usa." Hotaru blinked, returning to her workspace she shared with Kamal.

"Hotaru, Faheem." Chibi-Usa slid into the chair beside Hotaru. "What are you two doing?"

"Just a bit of research for our project." Kamal returned to the table with a stack of books in his arms.

Outside the library two hours later...

"Ochibi-chan." Haruka called out to the three pre-teens as she pulled up in front of the building. "Where are you going? If you want, I can give you a ride back."


In an outdoor cafe...

"Kazuma Yuu?" Mimete alerted the actor of her presence. "I'm so thrilled." she gushed. "I'm a huge fan of yours. Actually, I have a question I want to ask you. I have a friend over there that is a huge fan of yours. Can we spare a minute of your time? Just an autograph." she pulled Kazuma off.


On the road...

"Haruka-papa." Hotaru whispered, the two Outer Senshi sensing a Daimon nearby.

"Yeah." Haruka nodded and pulled the car to a stop.

"Kamal, Chibi-Usa, stay here." Hotaru instructed and the two Outer Senshi left the car.


In the park...

"You know, I'm quite troubled by this kind of things." Kazuma pulled himself free from Mimete. "Where is this friend of yours?"

"Actually, right here." Mimete pulled out her briefcase. "Appear, Daimon!"

"Let's spread this friendship to the world." U-Tomodachi emerged from the briefcase. Jumping in front of Kazuma and stopped him from escaping, she grabbed the actor's shirt. "I want to be friends with you forever. So, give me your Pure Heart."

The child-like Daimon was interrupted by Sailor Uranus' 'World Shaking' attack.

"You can't win over a man's heart by force." Sailor Uranus tsked.

"Everyone, a Daimon has appeared in the park in the fourth block." Chibi-Usa hid in the nearby bushes and spotted the fight. She then pressed the communicator on Luna-P, alerting the rest of the Senshi. "Moon Prism Power, Make Up!"

"U-Tomodachi, make them your friends too." Mimete shrieked.

"Daimon, that's enough!" Sailor Chibi-Moon snapped. "I am the apprentice Sailor Senshi of Love and Justice, Sailor Chibi-Moon! In the name of the future Moon, I will punish you!"

"You do remember that your attack doesn't work every time, right, Chibi-Moon?" Sailor Saturn reminded.

"You silly girl, you." U-Tomodachi chided, "Little girls, jump right in." she pulled out a skipping rope.

"This is off-limits to kids." Sailor Uranus scolded Sailor Chibi-Moon, having grabbed the younger Senshi and leapt away, leaving Sailor Saturn to fight off the Daimon.

"I really need to take up Bōjutsu lessons." Sailor Saturn muttered, parrying U-Tomodachi off. "Death Bolt!" she summoned a single energy bolt of death energy from her Glaive, piercing through the Daimon's shoulder and forcing her to drop the skipping rope.

"Hold it right there!" Sailor Moon and the Inner Senshi arrive to the fight. "A bad guy who hasn't given up and is after Pure Hearts. I am the Sailor Senshi of Love and Justice, Sailor Moon! In the name of the Moon, I will punish you!"

"More interruptions." Mimete fumed. "U-Tomodachi! I'm leaving the rest to you." she beat a hasty retreat.

"I was going to be a good friend to you." U-Tomodachi sobbed. "I quit!"

"Wraith's Drain." Sailor Saturn summoned a ghastly ghoul from her Glaive's blade and it passed through U-Tomodachi's body, absorbing the Daimon Egg's energy. "Sailor Mercury, replenish the energy of the Daimon Egg with the Grail's energy." she shouted.

"Right." Sailor Mercury nodded. "Crisis, Make Up!" she called forth the Grail and let the sacred Cup's power wash over the severely drained Daimon.

"Lovely!" U-Tomodachi squealed as she was purified, her pale skin became much healthier.

"So, what do we do with her?" Sailor Mars pondered, the Senshi looking at the new addition.

"Chibi-Moon could use a bodyguard in school." Sailor Moon pointed out.

"But how are we going to pull this off?" Sailor Jupiter asked. "She doesn't look human enough. No offense." she quickly amended.

"Have Luna and Artemis use some kind of disguise magic?" Sailor Venus suggested.

"That would be a feasible method." Sailor Moon nodded. "But where would she stay?"

"The Shrine has enough protective talismans around it to prevent the Death Busters from locating her." Sailor Mars offered.
