A.N. I've got much to say and lack the room to say them ALL... I haven't
the time to correct any grammatical errors for this so if you catch
them.... I'm sorry!!!! Now on to more jabber!
To Goddess-of-light: (Sharp eye you got there!)
Your first question, Usagi is seventeen years old. I'm skipping your second question for now because it'll take too long, I just want to answer the most important one you asked me. The one about Cosmos and her brooch. We all know *or suspect* that Sailor Cosmos will be Usagi's most powerful form in the future, but what about all the other transformations Usagi-chan must acquire to become Cosmos? Who said Eternal Sailor Moon is the second most powerful form Usagi has? Also, I noticed that when future Usagi *disguised as the sailor child Chibi Chibi* morphed herself into Cosmos, she didn't yell out a string of words to help her transform into her altered persona... hey I'm guessing here but it seemed that she also didn't need a transformation brooch. I figure that..(was it the magna or the anime) since Usagi used two techniques to transform herself (1. The Holy Grail thing. 2. Her new brooch) into Super Sailor Moon... well... why couldn't she transform herself into Eternal Sailor Moon in a secondary fashion as well?
Geez I'm getting confused now that I'm writing my explanation out like this.... lets just put it simply... this is my story and if I believe Usagi is capable of gaining enough power to transform into Eternal Sailor Moon without the assistant of a magical brooch then by golly she can.
To Tsuki no Megumi:
Bawdy, cowers in a corner, wailing pathetically: Wahhhhh! SesshouMaru-sama! My beloved bodyguard, protect me!
SesshouMaru staring at the pathetic devotee: Kisama. I SesshouMaru, bestow no sympathy to lowlife mongrels. Just sit there and die like the pathetic human scum you are.
Bawdy: ............ ^_____^ Yes me lord! *He's finally talking to me!!!! I'm so happy, I'm gonna cry!!!!*
She takes a dagger and stabs herself with it, dieing ever so happily. (Bawdy's a very devoted follower of the Fluffy fan club.) *but for how long???*
SesshouMaru *glares coolly at Bawdy's corps and slashes it with Tenseiga *: Forever..... now get back to work.

Chapter 4 Angelic sight
She ran quickly towards the voice, expecting to see something gruesome standing fearsomely before a terrified commoner who would be cowering in terror. Her heart was thundering wild like horse hooves galloping upon the dirt path.
The rugged looking Usagi, carrying a dirty sack quickly transformed into Eternal Sailor Moon while making her way around a corner; it was the perfect chance for her to change without others taking notice of her.
A wave of nausea hit her as Usagi's transformation completed and Eternal Sailor Moon nearly toppled over in fatigue. Managing to steady herself against the crumbled wall, she thought to herself hopelessly, *I'm exhausted. The previous battle wasted my powers... what am I going to do! *
The moon warrior caught her breath and pushed herself forward.
For some reason, she knew deep in her gut that if she called upon her thinning powers, she would most certainly faint. Perhaps never gaining consciousness for a day or two at the most.
*If I cannot use my powers then I'll fight with my fists instead! * She thought courageously.
The moon warrior caught sight of the attacker and faltered slightly; she wasn't expecting to see a girl with dirty blond hair dressed in a brown school uniform being drained to death of her life energy.
The creature doing the draining appeared to be a man in his forties. He seemed distracted by the light surrounding his prey, "Yes... this power you have is infinite!" He grinned a wicked grin, watching as the two glowing spheres of bright indigo energy gathered into his hands.
The possessed man didn't know there was a silent beauty making a mad dash and high kick his way.
The youmas' smiling face was greeted by a not-so-friendly kick in the maw; a loud crack was heard as the youma toppled into a crumbling wall. The humanoid creature scuttled away from both its prey and attacker; his eyes wide open in shock.
"Holy shit it's you!" It bellowed in a mixture of fear and surprise.
Eternal Sailor Moon stood between the unconscious schoolgirl and evil youma. Her white feathery wings ruffled with agitation as her radiant hair tussled against the playful wind. The warrior glared on in silent superiority and nodded her head in agreement.
*Please leave! I can't fight someone who's possessed...I will not hurt the innocent! * She thought to herself, desperately wanting her powers to return to her quickly.
The youma growled at the warrior, pulled itself out of the rubble and charged towards his female opponent. He made a swipe at her, but the agile angel toppled away, distancing herself away from the defenseless schoolgirl laying lifelessly on the dirt road.
He skidded to a stop; kicking up dust as it jumped high into the air for a second attack, just above the fragile looking fighter from the moon.
Eternal Sailor Moon easily dodged the assault, although she seemed extremely frazzled by the near death encounter of razor-sharp nails.
The evil creature cursed its terrible luck as it landed in a squat. Glancing down at the little energy ball in his hands, it cursed under its breath a second time. The odd energy he was collected from the foreign girl was slowly fading away.
Glaring in silent fury, the youma mocked his dreaded enemy, "So my master was correct. You had somehow found your way to this pitiful world," It sneered contemptuously, "No mater. You won't win this time WENCH!"
As soon as his threat left his lips, the youma placed the fading energy ball into a sack and took to the roofs, disappearing without a trace.
The moon warrior watched wearily, afraid that the creature might make a hasty decision and return to continue the fight.
A small whimper from the schoolgirl brought back Eternal Sailor Moon's attention. She quickly scanned the area, noticing no one in sight and morphed back to her dirty self. Usagi knelt next to the unconscious girl and checked for any sign of injuries.
Usagi smiled in relief. The girl in her arms had no fatal injuries, only a few thin scratches and bruises marred the young unconscious girls arms and legs; it would all eventually heal on its own accord. Usagi brushed her fingers over the younger girls cheek, removing the dirt stuck on the girls tearstained face.
*Is this girl one of the mikos?!*
*****
He would have been out investigating the troops entering Konan, gathering their reports and studying their battle strategies given by the emperor of Kutou. Perhaps, silently scoff the incompetent ruler for his untactful actions of winning over Konan.
If it were up to him, a sneak attack or an assassination attempt on emperor Saihitei himself was a more reasonable approach than to carry the war banners of Kutou armies into Konan province and create such dramatic hustle and bustle. However, it didn't mater anymore, for his earlier plans to supervise the marching troops were readjusted somewhat, and he opted his secondary plan to send a spy in his place instead.
What caused him to change his decision was the odd sensation that urged him to venture through Kutou's marketplace that day.
He was never one to change tactics so abruptly just to stroll around the kingdom for no apparent reason at all, but here he was dressed in his heavy body armor and riding a white stallion through the muddy streets of Kutou. He was searching for something. That was all he knew to be factual.
*But what is it? * He thought to himself, slightly curious.
In his gut, he already had a vague inkling of what it was he blindly searched for. To him, it felt as if two magnetic forces were being pulled closer and closer together the further he ventured from Kutou's palace. He never felt such sensations as this before...
With a gentle nudge, the stallion ventured towards its riders destination. After a few minutes, a sudden tug on the reins forced the horse to stop. His master dismounted from the straddle without releasing his strong hold on the reins and slowly began to tug the horse forward.
The warrior was getting closer, for the pull was getting stronger, and his most cherished plan would finally begin to take form.
Even though he wore an array of clothing and metallic armor, he was as silent and graceful as a panther prowling the night for its prey. The only thing causing a ruckus was the horse he led through the quiet suburbs of the enclosed city streets of Kutou. The stubborn creature was whining through its muzzle, rocked its head back and forth, and stomped its hooves loudly upon the bumpy pavement.
The shogun made a silent vow to rid himself of the annoying horse in the cruelest of fashions and find a more domesticated stallion to take its place. He had no need for anything useless.
Turning a corner, the man came to a stop and studied the odd sight before him.
A filthy girl so repulsively dirty sat kneeling upon the dirt road and in her arms laid a delusional foreigner dressed in a brown suite. It seemed as if the ugly 'thing' was in indecision whether to help the sandy blond haired girl to sit up or to leave the foreigner resting upon her lap.
The man in the dark blue cloak stepped forward, grinding his boots into the gravel loud enough to catch the filthy woman's' attention. The little hoodlum snapped her head up and stared directly at the creator of the soft noise; the broad shouldered man easily caught the mixture of shock and foreboding reflected from her features.
His eyes narrowed suspiciously, while he studied the commoners petrified expression. Her bright intelligent eyes, bluer than the sea itself was distorted by the black soot and grime running from her forehead down to her cheeks.
The girls' clothes were weather-beaten with dirt stains smeared upon the kimono-like outfit she wore, the thick fabric was tattered, and thick strands of thread stuck out from around the edges. Either this dirty woman- child was homeless, or her family was terribly poor and could not afford anything but food and water to survive.
"I suggest you leave," his deep stoic voice called out calmly, however the undercurrent of those words was malicious and threatening in its own pleasant way.
Fear was plainly noticeable in the girls' jittery stature but her body began to relax in his presence. A minute of tense scrutiny passed between the two silent strangers: one a masculine warrior with the power to kill with just a thought, and the other, a seemingly petite albeit unclean maiden who seemed incapable of hurting a single fly. Then, out of the blue, the emotions reflecting from the silent girls eyes began to change... It was as if she had sensed who he was.... and now it seemed like she trusted him.
The shogun watched as the untidy one gently laid the dazed girl on the ground, stood up and dusted her wrinkled kimono as best she could. She then ran in the opposite direction from which the armored man had come. Stopping a far distance away, the girl turned around, smiled sweetly, bowed in humble respect and veered herself into another street all the while waving goodbye.
She never said a single word throughout the peculiar encounter.
What irritated the shogun was the simple fact that she smiled at him. He was used to dread displayed in the eyes of his associates and the civilians; however he wasn't used to friendly smiles flashing his way for no damn reason at all.
*The nerve of that girl. * He thought smugly.
The mighty shogun calmly approached the dazzled foreigner who was frantically spewing incoherent words by the second. He knelt down beside her and lifted her limp body into his arms. What he felt radiating from the child was indeed the power of Seiryuu. The shogun grinned to himself in silent triumph.
Soon he would have what he wished....
"T-t-that g-girl....sh-she saved m-me.."
The shogun glared coolly at the shivering child, noticing the tears spilling from his miko's closed eyes.
"Miaka... w-where are you?" She cried despairingly.
He apparently knew that the girls' head was hurting with a pounding migraine and that her body and soul ached in pain. He knew that the girl was tired and that she would pass out cold into nightmarish dreams. He didn't care the least. Let the miko be tortured day and night with terrible dreams of abandonment, for he would be the one to comfort her and win her trust more easily in the end.
The silent man stood up gracefully, strolled quickly towards his stallion and mounted the horse with only the slightest of difficulties. Grabbing hold of the reins with one hand, the shogun jerked the horse to turn around, kicked its sides roughly and forced the horse to a fast gallop.
"Sleep well... Seiryuu no miko, for I have much in stored for you."
*****
Usagi released a loud sigh, *man, I could have sworn he was going to kill me if I stayed any longer... and what in the world am I wearing underneath this kimono!? * Usagi glanced around for any peeping toms before opening the top of her kimono and glancing down at her breasts.
*A lacy pink bra? .... This would definitely tip off any voyeur in the neighborhood that I'm from another world. How pathetic... I bet 'they' are spying on me right now...* Usagi glared suspiciously at the dark shadowy buildings, scratching the side of her leg. Her attentions suddenly snapped back in remembrance of the four gods.
*Cute as those gods may appear to be... they really need to get out and socialize more often. *
Usagi quickly found an abandoned house not too far away and removed her dirty kimono to find more embarrassing undergarments. *Ooo, pink, my favorite color! Whoever chose this, has a sharp eye when it comes to undergarments. * Usagi studied the expensive fabric, suddenly wishing that her visit to this world wasn't so important.
The blond hastily removed her pink stockings and garter and hid them in the darkest corner of her bag so no prying eyes could see them and got dressed again. Usagi quickly rubbed red dirt on her creamy calves up to her knees for safe measure and exited the abandon building.
*My goodness I feel like walking trash! *
Ignoring the strong urge to jump into a lake Usagi found her way back to the market place, only this time did she notice the suspicious stares of the merchants. It wasn't as if she was a bum that'll try and steal their freshly displayed food yet she couldn't blame them for being so cautious around her, she was a mess after all. Suddenly the unexpected happened and her stomach released a loud rumble signifying her worst self-restraining ability... At that moment in time, Usagi was famished and will stop at nothing to satisfy her urges.
Merchants beware!

To Mad: (Did you know M.A.D is my initials? What were my parents smoking at the time? Actually the doctor named me that^.^)
Thank you for that question, yes you are absolutely correct! What Byakko did was very vulgar and offensive, however he didn't leave so suddenly just because he didn't like the way Usagi acted towards him (actually he expected it to happen, why'd you think Genbu knew what to tell Usagi after Byakko left?) He left because he regretted what he did to her. (this story will have a lot of reading between the lines) And who said Byakko wouldn't help Usagi finding her companions souls?
About the other gods, they were just joking around, besides the era they ruled was during the time men treated women with disrespect (just like cattle, and no one can deny this fact because like it or not history is full of disrespect for women. Why would people form women rights groups in the first place? Trust me they didn't decide to go on hunger strikes and stuff just because they thought it'll be enjoyable!) But yes, the gods are all snotty, sometimes cruel, but never to the point of sexual assaulting an innocent woman (rape her) I'd never go that low for any of the gods cause they have more sense than that. (and I do too!!!)
Oh, during the progression of this story the gods will eventually mellow out in the end, perhaps learn a little about respect with their time with Usagi... besides if they are the only gods in the world (and they are ALL male)... and then they meet the only *young* immortal woman in the world... (and these men are all heterosexual and would turn green at the thought of homosexual acts) .....do you guys catch my drift? And I've read so many stories with Usagi as the main character getting all the guys... well I am a girl to and I'd be jealous (I remember being so frustrated when Miaka got all the guys in Fushigi Yuugi.) ^.^ And besides it's all part of my planned out story.(Still a bit blurry on the edges but it's coming out ok)
*I'm also trying to aggravate Chaotic_Blue a little...-___-* Man did she blow her top!*
A.N #2
1. I must admit, thanks to your reviews you've ALL convinced me to change a LOT of content in this story. Not only have I changed the particular lucky guy who would be with Usagi, but I will most definitely add in the other scouts along the way... but I'm not sure I'll pair them with anyone due to some...err unfortunate circumstances. I'm really excited to post up the next chapter...and I think this story had taken a mind of it's own! I was hoping this story would only be about ten chapters of just smut drama and humor but not anymore!
2. Now more about that lucky guy... my mind is in turmoil of who to choose.... I've decided to just leave this questionable man alone for a little while and hopefully your suggestions will jar me into making my finale decision. I like mostly all of the *male* warriors in Fushigi Yuugi and I can't seem to choose one from them all, so I began making a tally of whom you guys thought should be with Usagi and well.... I suppose that was the reason I changed my mind about who to pair Usagi with. I actually don't give an ass who wins her because as far as this story goes I'm enjoying just writing about the *men* involved in the play!
To Goddess-of-light: (Sharp eye you got there!)

Not only have I changed the particular lucky guy who would be with Usagi, but I will most definitely add in the other scouts along the way... but I'm not sure I'll pair them with anyone due to some...err unfortunate circumstances. I'm really excited to post up the next chapter...and I think this story had taken a mind of it's own! I was hoping this story would only be about ten chapters of just smut drama and humor but not anymore!
2. Now more about that lucky guy... my mind is in turmoil of who to choose.... I've decided to just leave this questionable man alone for a little while and hopefully your suggestions will jar me into making my finale decision. I like mostly all of the *male* warriors in Fushigi Yuugi and I can't seem to choose one from them all, so I began making a tally of whom you guys thought should be with Usagi and well.... I suppose that was the reason I changed my mind about who to pair Usagi with. I actually don't give an ass who wins her because as far as this story goes I'm enjoying just writing about the *men* involved in the play!
