Akina's Notes: O.K. One thing I forgot to mention was that this takes
place after Sailor Stars and after OZ and all that jazz is defeated in the
G.W. time. It doesn't really mean much to the story though.. Just in case
you were wondering. Please Review!!!

Chapter 5: An Unexpected Welcome
The shuttle flight back to Earth was uneventful for the most part. Rei and Usagi had marveled at the beautiful sight of the blue planet down below them for a little while. Usagi quickly fell asleep after that. Her dreams were filled with memories of times with the senshi, and with Mamo-chan. Unknown to her, she small tears began to run down her face.
Rei tried unsuccessfully to fall asleep. She had been right about the technology here; these people even made space stations for people to live in called colonies! People could travel at will between them and Earth too! It was amazing to her since in their time, not many people had even dreamed that they would truly travel into space. She gazed out the window again. It was so beautiful and free feeling, with nothing but the stars and the Earth in front of them as boundaries.
"It's pretty isn't it." Rei turned to see Trowa looking out the window she was. Rei nodded. "I've been up here countless times and I have never gotten used to it. It make you feel so small." Trowa then walked back to his seat with out even giving her a chance to say anything. For the first time Rei really looked at the five boys who were helping them. Quatre was sweet and innocent looking. With messy light-blonde hair and dark blue eyes, there was something in his eyes that told her that there was something more to him then innocence though. Her eyes moved to the taller boy sitting next to him. Trowa was shrouded in mystery, with those long bangs that covered his one eye. Leaving only one emerald eye that sparkled from something. Rei next looked at Heero. His hair looked like it was hardly ever combed and his eyes reveled nothing. He seemed cold and emotionless. Rei wasn't so sure if that's what he was really like, but he certainly wanted you to think that way. Next to Heero was Duo, fast asleep. He was like the boy version of Usagi, except for the chestnut colored hair. She had to admit that he had an almost annoying personality from what she had seen. Which was another way to compare him to Usagi. Then she judged Wufei, who sat by himself. He always appeared to think of himself as a higher being then the rest of mankind. His eyes were so dark brown they were black. He almost looked bird-like in appearance, not a bird as in a canary, but a bird more like a hawk.
After her analysis, Rei again tried to fall asleep. This second attempt failed, just like the first, so she sat there with her eyes closed and began to take the quiet moment to meditate. It was harder with out the sacred fire burning like a comfort in front of hr, but she had to make due. Rei slowly slipped away from her surroundings.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~
Relena Peacecraft waited patiently in her car for the shuttle to arrive. She got goosebumps from the idea of seeing Heero again. She knew that he only thought her as a mission, but couldn't help how she felt about the young man. He had saved her life more then once. How could you not love a man like that? Even if he did for the most part ignore you.
Relena remembered the conversation over the phone with him. She wondered who the two girls were. A little bit of jealousy struck her at the thought at how Heero had actually paid attention to them. It went away quickly once she remembered the other pilots. She laughed inwardly as she pictured the guys asking Heero to call her.
Relena could now see the shuttle in the distance, she watched it move in closer and closer. After it had landed she got out of her car and waited for a sight of who she was waiting for. She saw a boy around the age of fifteen with dark brown messy hair. "Heero-chan," she called. "I'm over here!"
Heero turned his head spotted her and began to walk over to Relena. Five familiar faces and two new ones followed him.
"Hello guys," she greeted. She turned to the two girls. They each looked about her age. They were each pretty, the blonde looked sweet and friendly with he hair tied into pigtails with a bun and a tail of hair trailing out of each and a sparkle in her eyes that rivaled Duo's. The other girl was even prettier then the blonde, she had long dark hair and violet eyes. Just from her looks she could tell that the girl with dark hair had a spirit in her that not even the OZ federation would be able to break. "You two must be Usagi-san and Rei-san. My name is Relena Peacecraft, it is a pleasure to meet you."
Usagi and Rei stared at each other in shock. They had been told that Relena was the owner of the school they would be attending and was the leader of the Sank Kingdom. In their minds such an accomplished woman should have been old and withered, but standing in front of them was a young woman that looked their age.
"Hai, I am Tsukino Usagi and my friend is Hino Rei." Both girls bowed to Relena. Relena smiled when she saw the shocked looks on her faces. They weren't the first, but she had expected the guys to tell them a little more about her. She shook each girl's hand.
"It is a pleasure to meet you both. Now, if we would get going, I have some important matters to address back at the academy." Relena led the group to her car and they all piled in. The pink car slowly moved away from the parking space, picking up speed as it went. No one talked on the way.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
They arrived at the academy around 4:00 in the afternoon. Turning to the group following her Relena said, "I must hurry back to my office, I'll have a few workers show you to your rooms. I hope you don't mind, but I put Usagi-san and Rei-san in the same room." Usagi and Rei shook their heads politely. Suddenly there was a loud crash and a burst of flame and heat from the side of the building. There was a wicked sounding cackle that followed directly after.
"Holy shit what was that?!" exclaimed Duo.
Heero turned to the two girls and said " you two find somewhere safe to hide, Wufei, Quatre, Trowa, Duo, lets go." He then turned and ran out of sight.
"What is going on?" asked a frantic Usagi.
"Just listen to him!" called Duo over his shoulder. He, like the rest of the guys had started to run in the same direction of Heero.
"Usagi-chan come on!" cried Rei, pulling on Usagi's arm. Both girls ran towards a big bush across the wide driveway where they had just gotten out of Relena's car a moment ago. Watching the scene taking place before them, they now saw the cause of the explosion. A male figure was floating in the air. Laughing cruelly. "We better transform, Usagi-chan. I have a feeling we just found our enemy at the Time Gate!"
"Right Rei-chan. Moon eternal make-up!"
"Mars crystal power make-up!"
They held up there transformation objects and nothing happened!? "What we can't transform?!" wailed Usagi. "What are we supposed to do? Just stand there while the reason we dropped into this place is attacking the only people we have to help us?!" Usagi was going into hysterics as Rei thought on the new problem.
"The time we're in must affect our transformations. I couldn't tell you why though. We need Ami-chan to explain this." Rei was thinking out loud.
"But, Ami-chan isn't here! I want to go home Rei-chan! I miss everyone and we need to be able to fight the enemy and we can't here!" Usagi was sobbing heavily now. Not being able to transform made reality hit her full blown. Before she had thought that this was all a dream and she could wake up anytime and go to see all her friends, and play in the arcade and give Mamo-chan a kiss. Now she was realizing how horrible the situation was.
"Usagi-chan pull yourself together," snapped Rei. Then she looked at her friend and realized how frightened she really was. She knelt by where Usagi was sitting on the ground sobbing into her lap. "It's O.K. Usa-chan. We'll get home eventually, I promise, but right now we have to be strong and try our best to help protect everyone in a way we can." Sure, sometimes Rei got really mad at her friend, but there was no person who had always been there for her when she needed it like Usagi. It felt weird to comfort her.
Usagi slowly stopped crying. Rei was a comfort to her. Even if they didn't always get along. "Thanks Rei-chan. I feel much better now." Usagi gave a Rei a small smile.
"Good. Let's just stay here for a while. Maybe we'll find a way to help defeat this new enemy without our senshi powers."
Standing there in the bushes, they watched the figure disappear at the arrival of five giant robotic suits. "We'll meet again," laughed the figure and the vanished into thin air.
