Ch.4
It was still dark out, but Haruka is already up. She moved around quietly so she won't wake Michiru. It has been one week since the battle and there has been no sign of the enemy. The inner scouts have examined the battlefield, but didn't come up with much. The information that has been gathered told them very little about what they are up against. They had written to Mamoru who is out of the country, but they don't know where he is right now and it would take a while for the letter to reach him. Haruka's wound has healed quickly with the help of her scout powers. With no signs of the enemy, the inner scouts have gone back to their daily lives. Even Michiru was starting to relax. But Haruka knew better, they are just waiting for us to let our guards down, and then they will strike. She sighed with frustration. It would be a lot easier if she knew what their objectives and who they are. Haruka hastily scribbled a note to Michiru and slipped out of the apartment. She planned on going to the forest outside of Tokyo and do some training. Michiru would have a fit if she knew about this, another reason not to wake her up. Haruka hated people treating her like she was made of glass. Besides, being confined indoors drives her nuts. Haruka hopped on her motorcycle and sped into the night.
Bang! Sailor Uranus' fist hit the tree trunk reducing it to splinters. She feinted to the side, dodging and punching at an invisible enemy. With two final flips, she came to a stop, breathing heavily, but feeling pleased. All this training is paying off, she felt a lot stronger than before. However, she really should be more careful, there's going to be a lot of awkward questions if anybody sees her. Suddenly, the wind changed. Uranus whirled around her eyes scanning the trees.
"Very good, but you are still no match for the Emperor."
Only then did Uranus see the young man leaning casually against a tree. Immediately, she recognized him as the person she had saved in the last battle. He was dressed in dark green and blended perfectly with his surroundings. He had black hair, brown eyes and light brown skin. He would have passed as any ordinary Japanese except for his unusual green tunic. He stepped forward raising his hands to show that he was unarmed. He bowed his head. "I come in peace."
Uranus regarded him cautiously not dropping her defensive position. "What do you want?"
"I am here to ask for your help. And to assist you in defeating your enemy."
"I don't know what you mean"
"Allow me to explain. The soldiers you fought were the Legion, they serve the Ublaz Family. They are after me. Alone, I am not as strong as them, but if we unite, we may have a chance of defeating them."
Uranus' eyes narrowed. "How do I know I can trust you, or believe anything that you say?"
"The Ublaz is my enemy and yours. Your enemy's enemy is your friend."
Uranus frowned, he was right, but... "I will consider it. Where can I find you?"
"A week from today, right here. Come alone." He bowed and melted into the woods.
Now this is something to discuss with the girls
One week later...
Uranus stood in the same clearing. She thought about the scouts' views on this meeting.
Flashback
"No way, how can you trust him? He might be a spy sent to find out our true identities," said Minako.
"I think we should give him a chance. Given the strength of our enemy, we will need all the help we can get. I think it's worth the risk," said Ami.
"I agree with Ami," said Rei, "we should not let him know who we really are, but give him a chance to prove himself."
"I don't know," muttered Makoto, "I really don't like the idea of trusting strange guys."
"I think the decision should be up to Haruka."
Everyone turned around and stared at Usagi.
"He asked for her help, not ours," said Usagi quietly, "I think she should decide for herself."
Rei nodded slowly, "I agree with you this time Usagi. What do you plan to do Haruka?"
"Sailor Uranus will meet him."
The yellow convertible zoomed through the streets as Haruka drove at her usual speed, very fast. She glanced at Michiru. "You haven't said anything Michiru. What do you think of this plan?"
Michiru looked at her. "You know what I think."
Haruka sighed, of course she knew. "Michiru, I know you are worried, but I could take care of myself."
"I know, but I can't stop worrying. I just can't bear to lose you again."
Haruka put one arm around her. "I will be alright."
"Promise me you will be careful"
"I will."
End of Flashback
The crack of a twig jolted Uranus back into the present. She watched as the man walked towards her.
"So you did come. You will no regret your decision"
"Tell me what you know about our enemy."
" Thousands of years ago, a warrior family was born at the edge of the universe and negaverse. They have the blood of the greatest fighters in both dimensions. Because of their ancestors, they can control the dark powers and the light powers. They grew in power until their own galaxy can no longer contain them. They started to travel to different galaxies, conquering them as they passed. They inherited and learned different techniques from each galaxy they conquered making them even stronger. However, bitter feuds sprung up between members of the Family. For decades, family members fought against each other. Finally only one person and her followers remained. Her name was Ublaz. She declared herself Emperor and ruler of the U Family. Thus begins the mighty Ublaz Family. All members of the Family today is her descendent. All the Emperors are named after her. The Family carved out an enormous empire. They empire became so big that the members of the Family can no longer control it. That is when they started to train children from different planets to serve them. They created an invincible army known as the Legions. By the time the Ublaz Family reached your galaxy, it was at its peak of power. They came to earth and built a palace on an island to rule the galaxy. But first, they needed to defeat the moon kingdom and her allies. The Emperor has defeated many enemies stronger than your galaxy. But for some reason, he failed and was killed. The island, the Family, and the Legions were frozen in solid crystal by Queen Serenity. A thousand years they remain frozen. Now the spell has been broken, and the Family rises again, more powerful than ever. The old Emperor's daughter wants conquer this planet, she will succeed where her father failed. You and your friends are the defenders of thsi planet. I know you will want to defeat Ublaz and the Family. I watched your battle against the Legions. You are exceptionaly strong. I know a lot about the Ublaz's fighting techniques. I can be a great help to you. In return I ask that you give me your protection."
"I accept your offer. What is your name?"
"You may call me Chikyuu."
Uranus raised an eyebrow. "That is not your real name."
Chikyuu smiled. "Uranus is not your real name either."
Uranus smiled too. "Very well then, let's go. I think you should meet the rest of my friends. You will be safe with us."
"I beg to differ." came a voice from behind them.
Note: As some of you already noticed. Ublaz is the name of a character from the Redwall books. I like the name so that's why I'm using it.
