Love Will See Us Through

Disclaimer: Neither Allure-chan nor I own Sailor Moon or Gundam Wing. Please don't sue us, all I have is a broken blow dryer and a few Hershey kisses left over from my Easter Basket last year -_-'

Note: This is a little idea that I came up with and I thought it'd be kinda cool *giggles*. Anyway, I got the idea for this fic from a picture of Duo as Shinigami and ever since I saw that pic, I've wanted to write a fic to go along with it and here it is *holds up hands by title, presenting it*. Anyway, this is going to be kinda weird but just bear with us k? It'll be GREAT!!! Anyway, that's all I really wanna say now, hope you enjoy!!

Chapter 9 - Regrets and Betrayal

"What are you doing?! Get off of her!" Seiya shouted as he shoved Duo away from Usagi.

"Seiya-kun… I…" Usagi started as she took a step back. How could she forget about her boyfriend? She was supposed to care about him right? How in the world had she managed to forget about him?

"Quiet Usagi-chan. I'll be with you after I take care of him." Seiya said as he approached Duo. Duo smirked confidently as Seiya approached. This guy would be no match for the God of Death.

"Matte Seiya-kun!" Usagi cried as she grabbed his arm. "It wasn't Duo-kun, it was me! Don't hurt him o-negai!" Seiya looked at Usagi and his eyes narrowed in slight anger but mostly betrayal.

"Why?" He questioned, his eyes cold and unforgiving.

"It… it's a long story Seiya-kun…" Usagi said as she looked at her feet. She didn't want to look into those eyes. They held a look of overwhelming betrayal. She cared about him, yes, but Duo was different. It was really hard to explain; she didn't know what to do so she did the only thing she could. She turned around and ran away, tears rolling down her cheeks.

"Matte Usa-chan!" Duo called after her. He was stopped as Seiya grabbed the front of his shirt and held him up against the wall.

"You stay away from Usagi-chan." Seiya warned as his eyes narrowed on the braided one. Duo's eyes narrowed as he pushed Seiya off of him. Daggers were shot between the two boys until Duo stated simply.

"No." Duo walked away, heading for his next class. Usagi needed a little time to think… that wasn't exactly the easiest way for her boy friend to find out. Duo had forgotten about Seiya as well. He had been so happy over having Usagi remember him; he'd put Seiya out of his mind. Of course Seiya would be bitter though. He's a famous idol and his girl friend was just stolen by an exchange student from America.

****

Usagi ran through the hallways, not really paying much attention to where she was going or whom she was passing. She needed to get away and think about the turn of events. She loved Duo, she knew that much… how did she feel for Seiya though? She cared about Seiya and she didn't want to hurt him, but how could she leave Duo after they'd finally found each other again?

"What out onna!" An annoyed voice growled as Usagi crashed into someone. Her books flew across the floor and mixed with the guy's books.

"Gomen nasai…" She said as she wiped tears from her eyes and went about gathering her and his books together. "I didn't see you."

"Baka onna…" He grumbled as he walked away.

"N… nani? That voice… that attitude… do I know him?" Usagi questioned herself quietly as she watched the new student from Hong Kong walk off toward his next class. "Where have I seen him before?"

"Usagi-san, may I speak with you?" A soft feminine voice asked off to Usagi's right. She turned to see a girl with short blue hair and matching blue eyes.

"Hai… You're Mizuno-san ne?" Usagi asked, as she looked the girl over. She looked vaguely familiar and not just because she was the top student at the school that everyone knew at least by reputation.

"Hai, Mizuno Ami. You can just call me Ami if you'd prefer." She said with a warm smile as she offered a hand down to help Usagi up. Usagi took the offered hand and began to walk toward the library with the intelligent student. Usagi felt really dumb as she walked next to the genius. While Ami was on the top of the class, Usagi was on the very bottom with only a few people below her.

"You want to help me?" Usagi questioned with an astonished look on her face as realization hit her. Ami was offering to tutor Usagi to help get her into a good school.

"Hai, I'd like to help you, Tsukino-san." Ami said with a bright smile.

"Call me Usagi or Usagi-chan ne?" Usagi asked with a bright smile. "Why do you want to help me though? I've never really even talked to you."

"Partially because you seem like a nice person." Ami began with a smile. "And your teacher asked me if I could help out a little, she's worried you're going to end up failing out or something." A sweatdrop appeared on the back of Usagi's head as Ami went on talking about how poor Usagi's grades really were.

"That's not very nice…" Usagi mumbled as Ami went into a rant about how high your grades had to be to get into this school or that, and how Usagi's grades were under any of the local schools' lowest acceptable range. After a few more minutes of Ami's tangent, she went completely red in the face.

"Gomen nasai Usagi-chan!" Ami cried as she realized some of the stuff she was saying. "Umm… I have to get to class. I have a few more girls that I tutor, be at the Hikawa Shrine tonight after school all right?"

"Hai Ami-chan…" Usagi said with the sweatdrop still on her forehead. She trudged slowly to her next class, glad that neither Seiya nor Duo was in it. She was about to flop down in her normal seat but sitting there was the boy with the super-tight ponytail. The sweatdrop on her forehead grew and a vein popped out and started to throb.

"That's my seat baka." She snapped as she dropped her books noisily onto the desk. She was having a very bad day… even though it had started out as a great day. She heard whispering around the room but didn't really pay much attention. The guy just sat in the desk, scowling deeply at her with his arms crossed over his chest.

"Not anymore baka onna…" He muttered in a steady voice. His scowl put Usagi in an even fouler mood.

"You're such a jerk! You remind me of-" She stopped as a realization hit her.

"What the hell is an onna doing here?" A calm voice asked as the boy with black hair stood beside someone with prussian blue eyes.

"Ask Maxwell." Came a monotone voice from the eyes.

"Onnas have no place in this war. She's going to die before this war is over… weakling…" He muttered as his scowl deepened.

"Wufei…" She mumbled as she took a few steps backward and bumped into a tall guy. She spun around to see Seiya standing there. "Seiya-kun? What are you doing in here? You don't have study hall this period." Usagi started but his hand slipped around her waist and he pulled her into a tight hug.

"Odango-chan, please tell me you'll stay with me." He said as he held her against his chest.

"I…" Usagi started as tears came to her eyes. How was she supposed to react to this? She really didn't want to hurt Seiya… she didn't want to hurt Duo either, she loved him. She pushed Seiya away as tears flowed from her eyes. "I don't know what to do…" Usagi jumped suddenly when a loud crash filled the room. She turned around to see the pony-tailed guy shove her books off the table.

"Baka…" Seiya muttered as he picked up Usagi's books and led her over to a table in the corner. "Odango-chan, please talk to me." He said as he lifted her chin to look into her eyes. Usagi pulled her face away from his hand and looked at the wall beside her. "Was it something I did? Because I always had to leave for concerts and things?"

"Iie, it's not you Seiya-kun… something happened while you were gone. I can't really explain it but I remember something and I realize I can't be with you anymore… gomen…" Usagi said quietly as she looked away from him. Seiya nodded slightly and looked very heart-broken.

"All right… bye Odango-chan…" Seiya said calmly as he stood and left the room.

Usagi felt like crying. Today had turned into such a terrible day and after school would be even worse. Usagi was going to be stuck with a bunch of people to study. She sighed in aggravation and threw herself onto the top of the desk, trying to think of a way to get out of the study session.

****

"Usagi-chan!" Duo called after school as he saw the family odangoed girl. Usagi smiled slightly as she saw him and ran to his open arms, putting her arms around his neck.

"Gomen about earlier Duo-chan. I didn't know how to react to Seiya… I feel pretty bad about it though." Usagi said quietly as she pulled away from Duo and looked at the ground, her brow furrowed in concentrations.

"Man, you sure look pretty when you're trying to be serious." Duo said while he playfully tickled her sides. Usagi giggled quietly and struggled against him. She was unaware of all the weird and angry stares that were being sent her way.

"Can you believe that girl? She chose the exchange student over Seiya! I mean, he's famous, and so gorgeous."

"Did you see the look on Seiya's face in study hall when she broke up with him?"

"I'll gladly take Seiya-kun off her hands."

The voices surrounded them but Usagi paid no mind. She didn't care what they had to say. She was the happiest when she was with Duo. That's the way it had always been, even if she didn't remember it, she knew that he had always made her happy.

"Duo-chan?" Usagi questioned as she pulled out of his embrace. She grinned broadly and grabbed him by the braid. "Can I play with your hair some time?" A sweatdrop appeared on his forehead at the question and he laughed nervously.

"I remember what you did last time, Usa-chan…" Duo said as he waved his hands slightly.

"Please Duo-chan?" She asked with a pout. She stuck out her bottom lip and batted her eyelashes. Duo sighed in defeat and nodded in agreement.

"All right Usa-chan. But no one hears about it, and no pictures this time." Duo said with the sweatdrop still on his forehead.

"Yatta!" She cried as she glomped onto Duo and started to squeeze him tightly.

"Usa-chan… I can't breathe-" He said as he tried to bring air into his lungs. Usagi let go and blushed deeply.

"Gomen Duo-chan." Usagi said with her cheeks flushed red. "Can we go visit Fei-kun some time?" Usagi asked with a smirk.

"Sure, why not-" Duo started then stopped and blinked a few times. "Wait… did you just say 'Fei-kun'?" Usagi nodded. "Oh… that's what I thought I heard…" He said quietly, not letting the matter go any further.

"How could I forget that bad attitude." Usagi said as her eyes narrowed slightly and her cheeks puffed out. Duo chuckled quietly to himself as he slung his arm around her shoulders and walked down the street beside her.

****

"So Selenity-hime is coming tonight?" Makoto asked her blue-haired friend.

"Hai, she's coming to our study session. Make sure you don't say anything that might make her suspicious. Once Shinigami finds out she's studying with us, I'm sure he'll be right outside watching." Ami said into her communicator.

"I got ya Ami-chan. Look, I have to finish baking some cookies before we head for the shrine." Makoto said as she reached for her hot-mitts.

"All right, I'll see you tonight Mako-chan." Ami replied as she switched her screen to Minako.

"Did you get the message Minako-chan?" Ami asked into the communicator.

"Hai Ami-chan, I'll be there early, I promise." Minako said. She was becoming known for her tardiness as of late. No one knew the real reason she was always late and always missing school.

"All right, we'll be waiting for you." Ami said as she turned the communicator off.

"How long until they arrive?" Rei asked as she stood beside her friend.

"Mako-chan is on her way, Minako is always late so I wouldn't expect her any time soon." Ami stated.

"What about Shinigami? Do you think he'll follow?" Rei asked as she swept her broom across the floor. Ami thought for a second and finally nodded 'yes'.

"Once he finds out who Usagi is going to study with, he'll be watching from the bushes. I'm sure of it." Ami said quietly.

"We have to get her away from the demon." Rei growled in a low voice.

"I agree with Makoto on this issue Rei-chan. I think Usagi should be allowed to choose her destiny." Ami said quietly.

"Usagi doesn't have a choice!" A voice broke into the conversation. "Usagi has to live up to her destiny, she has to become the Queen and save us from the dark times." Luna continued as she lay on the ground next to Ami. Ami only shook her head in disagreement.

"We can't force her to become someone she doesn't want to be." Ami said simply. "Shouldn't we just look out for her happiness? She was our friend in past times; we should be able to respect that. Besides, it's not like she'd let the earth die once she became a Goddess."

"It's not always that easy…" Luna said quietly.

****

"Jadeite-sama, it's perfect." Minako said with a giggle. "Usagi is coming to our study session tonight. They won't think anything of my tardiness so it's the perfect time to jump in and kill that pathetic little princess." A smirk spread across Jadeite's face as he pulled Minako into his lap and let his lips close over hers. He pulled back after a few minutes, both breathing heavily.

"You've done well Minako. What are you planning to do when Shinigami shows up though? We already found out you can't kill a God with your pathetic powers." Jadeite said as his eyes narrowed.

"Don't worry, I have a plan for that. If we can't kill him, we'll just have to distract him with this." Minako said as she held up a clear crystal ball. Jadeite raised a brow in question.

"What the hell is that?" Jadeite questioned as he took it from her hand.

"I'll demonstrate when we see Shinigami. Don't worry, this plan won't fail." Minako said confidently. "We can take out the rest of the Senshi at the same time as well as that baka Tuxedo Kamen. They are weak alone, we just have to separate them." A smirk spread across Jadeite's face as he flung Minako onto the bed and climbed on top of her.

"Perfect." He said as he smirked down at her. "Let's have a little fun before everyone arrives though ne?"

****

Usagi walked slowly up the stairs of the unfamiliar shrine. Duo had looked a little worried when she told him where she was headed. Usagi hadn't seemed to notice the look he'd given her though. She stopped halfway up the steps and debated on going back. She'd always hated studying, and now she was going to be with a bunch of people that spent most of their time studying.

"How did I get myself into this?" She mused quietly. She sighed and continued to climb the stairs with her head down.

When Usagi finally reached the top she saw a young girl with raven black hair wearing a robe. That must be one of the people that work at the shrine. She smiled slightly at the girl and began to walk past her.

"You're late." The girl said as she frowned at Usagi. "Come on, it's this way." Usagi nodded and followed the girl.

"Hello Usagi-chan." Ami said as she smiled at the girl when they entered a room with a low table. "We're still waiting for Minako-chan but I guess we can get started." Ami motioned for Usagi to sit and proceeded to introduce her to the other people in the room. "Usagi, this is Hino Rei." She said motioning to the raven-haired girl. "And this is Kino Makoto." She said motioning to the other girl with the brown ponytail.

"Tsukino Usagi." Usagi said as she bowed slightly.

"It's nice to meet you Usagi-san." Makoto said with a warm smile.

"Just call me Usagi ne?" Usagi said, blushing slightly. She had never liked being called 'san', it makes her sound too old. Makoto nodded and flipped a page in the book open in front of her.

"We're on page 247." Makoto said as she found the page she was searching for. Usagi reluctantly pulled out her book and turned to page 247. Yuck… I hate math… Usagi thought as she wrinkled her nose and groaned quietly. Ami stood behind Usagi and walked her through various types of problems and exercises.

When Usagi was finally starting to understand the problems, there was a loud explosion outside of the shrine. Usagi jumped at the sound and watched as the other girls in the room went rigid.

"Usagi-chan, stay here, we'll go see what that was." Makoto said as she stood up, her hands balled into tight fists.

"Iie, I'm going too." Usagi said calmly as she stood up and headed for the door. Rei's eyes narrowed slightly on Usagi as she pushed past her.

"What the hell is going on out here?!" Rei demanded when she flew out into the courtyard-type area of the shrine. "Nani?!?" She cried as she saw the familiar blonde general and the girl that stood beside him. "Who are you and why are you here?!" She demanded, trying not to blow her cover in front of Usagi. If Usagi knew they were the Senshi, they probably wouldn't be able to get anywhere close to her again. With Shinigami hurrying her away from them, and her trying to run away from her destiny.

"Nani?!?" Usagi cried as she saw the pair that stood there. "I thought Shinigami killed you?" Jadeite chuckled at the blond girl's reaction to him.

"Not nearly, Selenity-hime." He stated calmly as he slung his arm lazily around the blond girl's waist. "It won't even scar." He started as he pulled back his shirt to reveal a small scratch across his chest. "Being a general for Beryl-sama has its perks."

"Don't take another step closer…" A low voice said as the silhouette of a man appeared on the roof of the shrine.

"Who are they?" Makoto cried in alarm, still trying not to blow their cover.

"Give it up Makoto." Shinigami said with a wide smirk. "Do you really think you can hide who you are?"

"Nani?" Makoto cried as she looked up at Shinigami.

"Duo-chan?" Usagi asked as she squinted against the sunlight. "What are you doing here?" Duo jumped down in front of her, his back to Jadeite and his mistress.

"Easy, I couldn't let the Senshi try to force you into a decision on what your destiny will be." Shinigami said simply.

"The… Senshi?" Usagi questioned as she looked at the three girls. Her eyes squinted slightly then she jumped back in surprise. "Nani!?! How could I not have seen it?!?"

"Kuso… come on guys." Rei said as she pulled out a small wand with a star on top.

"Mars Star Power, Make-UP!"

"Jupiter Star Power, Make-UP!"

"Mercury Star Power, Make-UP!"

After some spinning and bright lights, the three Senshi stood in place of Ami, Makoto, and Rei. They all struck fancy poses and began a boring speech that Usagi didn't even pay attention to.

"So, what's that in your hands blondie?" Shinigami asked with a smirk as he looked at Minako.

"Why don't you come a little closer and find out Shinigami no baka." She said with a smirk as she held out the clear crystal orb.

"I think I'll pass on that one. Come on Usagi-chan, let's get out of here." Shinigami said as he spread his wings and picked Usagi up, holding her like a baby.

"You're so handsome Duo-chan." Usagi said with a giggle as she ran a hand over his cheek. He looked so much older as Shinigami and Usagi couldn't help but blush slightly as he winked at her.

"Matte, you still haven't come to see my gift for you." She said as she held the orb above her head. She took it and flung it straight at Shinigami, chanting a few words in some foreign tongue.

"N… nani?" Shinigami stammered as he fell to his knees. Usagi's eyes widened in shock as she sat on the ground beside him.

"Duo-chan?" She asked as she put a hand on his cheek. She cried out in pain as black energy streaked through her body. "Duo-chan! What's going on?!?" She cried through her cries of pain and tears. Shinigami's eyes glazed over and he smiled slightly. "Itai!!" She shrieked as she tried to pull her hand away. It was no use though, the energy wrapped itself around her body; it was cutting off her circulation. At least, that's what it felt like to Usagi. Usagi felt her eyes grow heavy as her strength left her. Just as she was able to free herself, she fell to the ground unconscious.

"Selenity-hime!!" The three Senshi called in unison as they tried to race toward Usagi. They were all stopped by a blast of energy as another crystal orb was flung at their feet.

"Iie!!"

"What's happening?!?"

"Let us go!!!"

The three struggled against the black power that laced itself around their bodies but soon they fell to their knees with glazed eyes as well. Minako laughed confidently as she went to Usagi's side and kicked her roughly. It didn't prompt a sound or a movement from the unconscious girl.

"We have the princess, now all we need is the crystal." Jadeite said confidently as he came up behind Minako and wrapped his arms around her waist. He leaned down and sucked on her neck for a minute, making sure he left a nasty hickey.

"That won't be hard, I'm sure Tuxedo Kamen will be here soon. He and Zoicite still have their little duel." Minako said confidently as she grabbed Usagi by a pigtail. She actually dragged Usagi by her hair back over to where the orb lay on the ground and picked it up. "We'll be able to see what's going on in their heads through these. And we'll be able to change their best fantasies into their worst nightmare. This will be more fun than dismembering them. Mental anguish is much more fun than physical torture."

"I like this side of you." Jadeite said as he pulled her against his chest. "They'll all end up begging for someone to kill them when the time is right. That's when we'll take them out, slowly of course."

"What should we do with her?" Minako asked as she tugged on Usagi's hair again.

"Hmm… we'll just keep her for a while until our mission is complete. Then we'll take her to Beryl-sama." Jadeite said wickedly as they disappeared through a dark portal.

****

Somewhere in a random apartment someone sharpened a blade and smirked as his face was reflected in the silver sheen. He pulled a white jacket on over his navy blue tank top and pulled his hair back in the normal tight ponytail.

"Time to find that weird guy with the braid… no one calls me 'Wu-man' and lives…" Wufei said as a scowl crossed his face.
