Hello PEople!!! Guess what?!?!?! SCHOOL'S OUT!!!! ^______________________________^
I wish everyone a very happy summer holiday. Ok here's chapter six!! Thank you to all who have reviewed!!
At the meeting everyone sat in shock as Usagi spilled out everything Pluto told her earlier that afternoon.
Everyone except Mamoru, that is, he didn't show up claiming to be busy with work at the local hospital.
Everyone, including Usagi, knew that he was pissed and didn't want to come. Haruka sat in the back seething
when Usagi told the senshi of their fight. Even if he was the "fated love" he had no right to yell at her
princess, no one, most especially no man, had the right to yell at her princess. Ever since Galaxia all
the sailor soldiers had become mush closer, even the outers, the thought of someone dying brought them
all into a tight-knit sister-ship.
"What are we to do now?"
Usagi turned to look at her blue-haired friend who was, at the moment, wrapped in the arms of
the tall brown haired starlight.
"I don't know Ami-chan. Pluto said that it would come to us when it needed to"
"Yeah but in the meantime out planet is coughing up evil. What if it starts taking the form of youmas?"
"Then we'll do what we've always done, Mako-chan, we'll fight them" Haruka said
Hotaru looked up from her spot on the floor
"We should have meetings every week at least, until the it's time for Crystal Tokyo. And Usagi-chan,
you need to tell Mamoru-san"
"Alright Hotaru. It's settled, we'll meet at the temple every Saturday around 5 or so until we know
what to do"
The room nodded and everyone went their separate ways
*******
(at Minako and Yaten's apartment)
"Yaten are you going to call him?"
Yaten looked up from his magazine. His and Minako's wedding picture was on the front cover and he was
making sure that the reporters didn't screw up the story too bad. (*(PF: they were married a month or so
ago. She has received 302 death threats, 5 of which were actually attempted to be carried out; all five
"assassins" spent at least a week in the hospital. Ya don't mess with Sailor V ^_~*)*)
"Who?"
Minako came up and took the magazine out of his hand, admired the front picture then whacked
him up side the head with it
"Seiya my dofus husband Seiya!!! You should call him and tell him what's going on, I'm sure he's curious
as to what this shadow is"
"Oh I'm sure he'll call to find out"
Minako shoved him off the couch and tossed the phone at him
"Call him!"
"Ok ok. Chill."
Yaten took the phone off the floor and dialed the numbers and waited
Ring
Ring
Ring
Ri-
"Moshi moshi"
"Seiya"
"Hello Yaten, What is it?"
"I need to talk to you" 'Gosh I sound lame' Yaten thought
"Well we're talking now aren't we?"
"Yeah, it's about the shadow that's covering everything"
"What is it? Around here I've heard rumors of the shadow taking shapes and attacking people"
"It started attacking people?!"
Across the room Minako froze, her eyes widened and her body went to full alert
"Yeah, but those are only rumors. So what is this thing?"
"It's evil"
"Well I kinda figured that" Seiya's voice was drenched in sarcasism, much to Yaten's annoyance.
'Why did I have to be the one to call him?'
"No Seiya it purely is evil. There is no force behind it, the Earth is basically puking up all the evil
that it has absorbed over the years"
"So what's this supposed to mean? The Earth decided to spew and we get to be the doctors? No
enemy, no "universe-in-jeopardy"?"
"Actually Pluto said that it meant that Crystal Tokyo was supposed to come"
Over in London Seiya's heart sank. He never recovered from Usagi's marriage, every couple he saw
walking, every white limo, and church bell reopened his wound. Healing would never come, he knew
that, but coping was not working either. With each new day he only found yet another thing to remind
him of "his" Odango, the gold in the sun, the blue in the sky, even the happy little kids playing the park
reminded Seiya of Usagi's innocence.
"Seiya hello Seiya"
"I'm here"
"I just thought you'd like to know what's going on"
"Thanks, how's Usagi taking it"
"She doesn't feel she's ready. Course it doesn't help that her and Mamoru are having some
problems right now"
Minako smacked Yaten up side the head " Don't give him false hope" she whispered coarsely.
Yaten mouthed "sorry, forgot"
"What kind of problems"
"Oh nothing really, they've just been having a few little fights, nothing big. Every couple goes through them"
"Alright, well Yaten I've got to go, I have a gig tonight at a club"
"Alright, ja ne"
"ja ne"

Seiya sank back into his chair. Crystal Tokyo was coming. Usagi would be queen. Course she
was already the queen of his heart, but now the world would see her regality. Seiya thought of
Usagi, his Odango becoming queen of the Earth and Moon. He could easily picture standing in an
elegant palace with a crown adorning her odangos, smiling as small children gave her flowers.
But Usagi being queen meant another thing too. Mamoru would be king. There would be no
backing out of the marriage after Crystal Tokyo was founded. But hadn't he already given up
hope for him and Usagi? Didn't he surrender his love for her the moment she said "I do"? Why
did the thought of her and Mamoru ruling together bring him to tears?
Seiya sighed then got up to splash some cold water on his face. He'd never stop loving Usagi,
never. He'd love her through the miles, through his life, even through his death. Hell hath
no fury to stop his forever devotion to the Rabbit of the Moon.
*Ami and Taiki's Apartment*
Ami and Taiki sat in their apartment more or less staring at the floor. No words were exchanged,
no thoughts shared. All in all it was very quiet, so silent you could hear the fish swimming.
(*(PF: Ami and Taiki's wedding was scheduled for next month, and Seiya promised to make an
appearance at it, however since he didn't keep that promise to Yaten Taiki wasn't that hopeful of
his friend's presence Ami has received 172 death threats so far none of which were attempted to
be carried out, I think the incident with Minako kinda discouraged would be assassins)*)
After about another five minutes of just sitting and staring Ami picked up a pillow off the couch and
SLAM
Knocked Taiki in the head.
Taiki just gave a look that said "I'm-not-amused" and "so-that's-the-way-you-want-to-play" Ami
gave a maliciously innocent smile. Taiki could all but see her little halo resting sloppily atop her horns.
Ami pushed him onto the floor, but he grabbed her and took her with him. Then he mercilessly tickled her.
Ami's laughter echoed throughout the room as she gasped for breath and tried to get away from her
fiancé. But Taiki wasn't about to give up that easily. Finally he stopped, Ami lay on the floor trying to
catch her breath while still laughing and Taiki propped himself up on the floor next to her.
"I love you, you know"
Ami smiled and said, "I love you too"
Taiki's mouth met Ami's in a searing kiss. It was almost as if time stopped and there was only them
in the world, all things melted away. Ami moaned softly and deepened the kiss; Taiki had slowly
made his way closer to her so that now he was practically on top of her. His hands caressed her hair
and wandered down, feeling the exposed skin of her stomach. Ami's arms encircled Taiki's neck,
pulling him closer to her body. Then-
RING!!!
Both looked up quite annoyed with infernal incessant ringing of the stupid phone. Why
did man make this again? All they do is interrupt special moments.
RING!!
Taiki groaned, got up and answered the phone.
"Moshi moshi"
"Hey Taiki"
"Hi Minako"
"Just thought I'd tell you, Yaten already called Seiya to tell him about the shadow"
"That it?"
"Yep. Ok?"
"Ok. Ja ne"
"Ja!"
Ami looked up at Taiki confused and disappointed
"Minako called to tell me that Yaten told Seiya about he shadow so I don't have to"
"Was that it?"
"Yeah" Taiki came over and plopped down on the floor next to his fiancé. Ami pretty much
jumped on him and starting kissing him like crazy. (*( PF: yeah you never knew this side of
Ami existed did you?!? It was a pleasant shock for Taiki too)*) Just as they started to get into the kiss
RING!!!
"Grrrr"
Ami got up and answered the phone
"Moshi moshi"
"Hi Ami-chan"
"Mako-chan what is it?"
"I was just thinking that maybe Taiki should call Seiya and let him know what's going on"
"Yaten already did that"
"OK great."
"Ja ne Mako-chan"
"Were you busy "
"Ja ne"
"ja ne"
Taiki came over and led Ami over to the couch. He started lightly kissing her neck. Ami
felt herself float away with his touch. Taiki worked his way up to her mouth lightly pressing his lips to hers.
RING!!!
"AHHHH!"
Ami got up again to answer the phone
RING!!
"Moshi moshi"
"Hello this is Maria Lusia Elena Josephia of Dismemberment Insured, I'm calling for
Mr. Kuo (Koo-O) Taiki (Take-E)"
"Damn telemarketers!!"

Usagi sat in the hospital waiting room. Heh even a doctor's wife had to get an appointment.
The room was filled with mothers and their "little babies". Some of the kids looked like they'd pass
out any second while others seemed to be fine holding ice packs to sprained fingers. Funny how the
ones smiling with ice packs got in first leaving the ones that could have a brain tumor sitting and waiting.
(PF: this happened to me!! I went into the hospital cause I had these killer headaches that no one knows
what thy are and they let this smiling kid with an ice pack in two hours before they let me!!! Btw the
docs still don't know what's wrong with my head) Finally Mamoru came out to see her.
"Mamo-chan, I need to speak with you"
Mamoru looked at her sternly. Like she was a dog he wasn't sure on trusting, not sure whether she had
a rabid bite or not. Finally his cold eyes gave way and he led her to an empty observation room.
Mamoru sat on the bed leaving Usagi standing in the center of the room.
"What do you want Usako? I have a lot of patients lined up and I can't waste my time chatting with you"
Usagi almost resentfully into his emotionless steel eyes
"I came to tell you about the shadow"
Mamoru shifted his head
"The Earth is expelling all the evil that it has absorbed. It happening all over the world and soon it will
be time for Crystal Tokyo to be built. Pluto wouldn't tell me what we needed to do, only that we will
know when the time comes"
Mamoru continued to simply stare at her, not so much in disbelief, more of antipathy towards the fact
he was not told into now. He was the last to know, and so he said nothing.
"I'm going home, Mamoru"
And with that Usagi turned and left the building
