egeta had felt it too

egeta had felt it too. He was in the gravity room when it struck him. It was so familiar, it kept changing. At one point it skyrocketed, the next a cat could beat it in a match. It radiated such a calm essence. He had to find out who's it was. He flew directly through the roof of the chamber, Bulma yelling angrily at him. Vegeta ignored, he remembered his tenshi. The rain had made him feel so desolate and powerless. That wasn't going to happen again.

He powered up in midair, wishing for the instant transmission of Kakkarott's. Too bad he hadn't died in the Cell Games. His little baka was so annoying, a little grieving would shut him up. He felt Gohan's aura. Great, he thought sarcastically, the great saiya-man's here to save me. He felt pretty pathetic, meaning he was going to beat Gohan into a pulp and run before his dad showed up.

Vegeta looked at the girl next to him, for a moment he was lost in long golden tresses of hair, and an endless sea of blue. His tenshi. He was furious. Every cell in his body blazed in agony, as the baka comforted her. He patted her golden hair, while Vegeta grew even more bitter. She smiled up at him, Vegeta's sky ripped apart. He plunged to the ground, angry as hell.

Gohan looked up, fear everywhere. "Run Usagi!" he shouted, shoving her away.

"Gohan what the-?"

Gohan was set onto by Vegeta. Usagi didn't catch the clue. She ran towards him from where he had shoved her. "Leave him alone!" she shouted as Gohan received an uppercut. Vegeta ignored her, dropping blast after blast to pound Gohan inot the ground. A vein was close to popping on his forehead. He very nearly achieved SSJ 3 as he blasted his rival's son.

"MOON ETERNAL POWER!" Eternal Sailor Moon shouted, the crystal sprung into her hands. Her body radiated with intense power. Her level shot past eighty thousand. "Starlight Moon Therapy Kiss!" she shouted. The attack hit Vegeta head on he flew back through five skyscrapers. Eternal Sailor Moon rushed next to Gohan's mangled body.

His clothes were in tatters, his powerlevel floating just above a thousand. "Usagi," he murmered reaching out with his hand as Mamoru had once done.

ESM's eyes widened. "You'll be okay," she said, Gohan's eyes turned sapphire, his hair became flat and looked more like Mamoru's all the time. In her eyes she no longer saw Gohan, but Mamoru. She gave him a quick kiss on the cheek and jumped into the sky. Gohan was in too much pain to think about the kiss.

"What the fuck do you think you are doing?" Vegeta asked.

"You bakayaro!" Eternal Sailor Moon screamed, her nostrils flaring.

Vegeta stumbled inwardly. He didn't think that his tenshi would act like this. He wasn't unfamiliar to being called a bastard, but by her. His normal rage didn't come. It melted away at her angry figure. The slip of a girl was defying him. Her power didn't come close, but he couldn't find it in his heart to hurt her. Something clicked off in his brain, his neurons stopped responding to his orders. He fell the fifty feet to the ground, making a gigantic dent in the ground.

Eternal Sailor Moon was torn between anxiety and anger. She had been hurt enough these past few days. And who was this 'Vegeta?' She stepped forwards, looking at the pitiful little man face forward in the gravel. The moon princess was shaking, she was posotively quailing. She took another step, her mind telling her to grab Mamoru and run. Her body resisted the order, taking yet another step. She was a foot away from him, and her hand was yet closer.

Vegeta flew up in an array of gold, Eternal Sailor Moon fell back in fright. He looked menacingly around, but his gaze fell on her and softened. Eternal Sailor Moon stumbled to her feet and ran. She pulled out the crystal her heart pounding, she dropped it in her shaking. She reached to pick it up, seeing that Vegeta hadn't moved. She breathed rapidly, blood pounding in her ears. Why wasn't she dead yet?

"Ginzuishou," she whispered, her words coming out in between ragged sobs. "Moon Healing Escalation!" the crystal took alomost all of her power. She fell back, the crystal healing her a bit as well.

Gohan stared at the little girl before him. He was going to live, and she was going to live too. Vegeta was nowhere to be seen. His vision pulled up a bit, he saw Vegeta speechless in the sky. "What's going on?" he muttered to himself. His eyes moved again, resting on Usagi in her weird uniform. She was in shock he could tell. She had probably never been so close to dying. Still he wondered what kind of energy she possesed to heal him and create that shield.

He walked over to her, aware of Vegeta's eyes boring into him. What could have caused his change so quickly, it was frightening. After the Cell games, their last battle he seemed a little weird, but now he was pure evil. A ki blast cut him and Eternal Sailor Moon apart, Gohan looked up, his black eyes locking with Vegeta's ebony. "Move Usagi."

She didn't budge.

"Usagi, run," he said a bit more firmly.

"No."

Gohan turned to face her. "Usagi, I don't want you hurt."

"I'll be fine," Eternal Sailor Moon lied. Her blood was circulating quite rapidly. Too rapidly. Her eyes glazed a bit, "M-mamo."

"Usagi!" his eyes locked with hers.

"Mamo-"

She fell back in a faint. Gohan rushed to her aid. He was knocked off his course by the prince of saiya-jins. "You really are bakana."

"Welcome to the real world," Vegeta said, still roasting mad. He turned his back on the boy and took a step towards the tenshi, his tenshi.

"Stop Vegeta!" Gohan said, his anger meeting Vegeta's.

"Quit playing hero boy," Vegeta said, throwing a ki blast behind him. Gohan powered up, he wasn't going to be surprised a second time.

Vegeta, sensing a battle he couldn't win, took flight. "I'm not finished brat!"

Gohan picked up Usagi, she was finally out of those stupid clothes, her hair was back in the bun atop her head. Her eyes were green again. He brought her to her apartment and lay her down. He went into the kitchen to try and make a damp cloth, when he came back in Usagi was sitting up in bed.

"Usagi," he pouted, "rest!"

"Gohan, I'm not going to rest anymore, I have for two weeks remember?" Usagi went into the kitchen to make herself a drink. "Who was that guy? He was so powerful," Usagi asked, shuddering.

"That was Vegeta, he's the prince of saiy-" He stopped.

"Saiy what?" she asked, her hands on her hips. "He's the prince of what?"

"I can't tell you that Usagi, as much as I want to," Gohan said sadly. "All I can say is that he's a friend of Dad's. He get's crazy sometimes because he was once very evil. But he was good before, I just don't get it. I think you should keep away from him. He acted kind of nice to you. Are you sure you've never seen him before?"

"No, I've never seen him before in my life," the princess turned her attention to her drink.

"What was with those wings?" Gohan asked, pouring himself a cup as well. He couldn't keep his eyes off of her face, he could spend hours looking at it, just memorizing every detail.

Usagi looked at the floor before locking her eyes with his. "I'm not being entirely truthful either," just then she lost her balance and sprayed the saiya-jin with hot chocolate.

He grit his teeth and helped her up. In turn she handed him a towel and helped him mop up his face. "I'm really sorry Gohan," she said with a chuckle.

"What??"

"You have chocolate in your hair," she said, pulling out a marshmallow. Without thinking she ate it. "I hope you wash your hair regularly."

"Oh yeah?" Gohan pulled the hose from the sink and sprayed her with it.

"No!" she giggled, "stop!"

"Not 'til you tell me about the wings," Gohan said with a grin.

"Stop! I've got water up my nose!" she yelled. "Stop and I'll tell you."

Gohan turned off the water and put the hose back in it's hanger by the sink. He took the towel and mopped up about ten gallons of water. "I hope the people below you don't complain of leakage. So, tell me."

"Well once apon a time there was a civilization on the moon…"

"And here I am," Usagi said, trying to hold the tears back. She hadn't mentioned anything about Mamoru so far.

"It's okay Usagi, the senshi died doing what they did best right?" Gohan said, giving her a hug.

Usagi hugged back, letting her tears flow onto his shoulder. "I'm sorry," she said, wiping her eyes, "that I had to tell you this."

Gohan lifted her chin, "I asked you remember? You're so nice Usagi."

Usagi beamed back at him. The phone rang interrupting the moment. Usagi pouted and lifted it off of the reciever, "moshi moshi, Chiba Usagi here."

"Usagi-chan! It's me Bulma, are you two okay? When I heard what Vegeta did-" she broke off in hysterics.

Usagi got a better grip on the phone. "We're okay Bulma-chan. I didn't get hurt, I can't say the same for Go-"

The phone switched to ChiChi's voice. "OH MY LITTLE GOHAN!! IS HE ALRIGHT? HOW COULD YOU HAVE LET MY LITTLE GOHAN GO INTO BATTLE WITH THAT MONSTER??"

Usagi held the phone a foot from her face as the enraged mother rambled on. "It's for you," she handed the phone to Gohan. She gave him a reassuring smile then fled.

Gohan took a deep breath. "I'm fine mom." His mother emitted a deep sigh, Gohan was sure his father had already escaped. "It's fine, Vegeta didn't really hurt either of us. I'm coming home okay?"

"Alright Gohan, good night," ChiChi said and hung up, struggling to keep her voice even.

Usagi lay in her bed, memories poured through her, she tossed and turned as she remembered Mars shooting out her snake fire, only to have it rebound on herself. She heard the screams as Uranus was engulfed by energy, stripping the muscle and skin from the bones. She sat up, her eyes wide open. Sweat trickled from her forehead. She lay back, letting her racing heart pipe down a bit. She was still breathing hard when she decided to go fly. She pulled out her brooch.

"Moon Eternal! MakeUp!"

The agent of love opened the window and lept out, she felt instantly calm as the evening breeze washed over her. Her wings felt good to stretch.

The prince of saiya-jins was having trouble sleeping as well. No matter what he tried the same vision returned to him. He saw his tenshi yell at him, and comfort the baka. He sat up in Bulma's second guest room. He went outside, deciding to go to some foreign planet to calm down. Without thinking he set the coordinates of the pod to the same place he had been several years ago. The famous barren, rainy planet he had achieved super saiya-jin at.

Eternal Sailor Moon looked up at the sky, expecting to see the moon. She nearly fell out of the sky. The moon wasn't there. "Mother," she whispered, the tears falling slowly. Usagi's silver crystal glowed teleporting her.

Vegeta sat at the same place he had before. He glanced up at the falling asteroids. Maybe she would come again. Maybe.

The elegant fighter felt alone in the lonesome world. She sat down under the cliff, her tears falling again at the thought that the moon didn't exist. She buried her head in her hands and curled her wings around her. She didn't feel the falling rain or see the boulders from the heavens. She just wanted to be home, home and a normal teenage girl.

Vegeta stood, feeling some of his tenshi's ki on the wind, probably from when she was here years ago. He sat down, ignoring the asteroids. She was gone. And if he did find her, she would be in the arms of Kakkarotto's brat. He was infuriated at the very idea of that. He powered up, his blonde hair waving in the wind, but not wet from the shower.

Eternal Sailor Moon looked up, a brilliant power was just above her. Intrigued her wings flapped roughly, pulling her with them. She saw her attacker from the morning. Panic flooded her senses. She was so afraid, even moreso than the days she had gone up against the most powerful enemies in her dimension. She didn't know if it was because the moon was missing or because she wasn't with her senshi but she didn't want him to see her.

His eyes locked with hers, the princess felt her heart pound. She was really going to die. 'I'll miss you senshi,' she thought and fled.

"Wait!" he called after her, taking flight. He could easilly catch up but apparantly chose not to do so. The princess wondered if he was toying with her. She flew until she could no longer keep herself in the air. Her wings were tired and sore from the hours of abuse. She had never been transformed this long, the strain was killing her. She pummeled, expecting to feel a ki blast or have her guts spreadout over the rocks.

Instead two strong arms caught her, she opened her eyes. She lept out of his arms and onto the ground. Perhaps she could stay transformed a bit longer. "Starlight Honeymoon Therapy Kiss!" she yelled hitting him at point blank. He fell back, as the dust cleared he stood fully erect. Besides a thin trickle of blood from the corner of his mouth he was perfectly normal. The senshi stumbled back.

He walked slowly towards her, the princess moved back holding the eternal tier before her. "Stop!" she shouted, angst dominating. "Don't come any closer!" However little damage it might do she still needed to try. He kept moving towards her. "Why are you doing this? Why do you keep trying to kill me?"

The last words echoed in Vegeta's mind. The shrill depressing voice drove him to the edge of sanity and back. He stammered for the right words. A fighter wasn't too good at this. It was usually just to beat them up and walk off victorious. He doubted if she would like this. "I'm not trying to kill you." 'I was trying to kill Gohan,' he wanted to add.

She shook her head. "Uh-uh I don't buy it. Please," she begged, "leave me alone. I'll use this if I have to."

Vegeta laughed. "Look if I wanted to kill you you would have been dead already," he bashed himself for his choice of words. She eased up a bit, the tier still in her hands.

"What's that supposed to mean? Gosh you're nice!" she said angrilly. Then seeing the look that escaped the mask for a split second. "Gomen, I didn't mean to. It's just that."

Vegeta took another step, the tier was instantly pointed at him. Vegeta took a step back and the girl relaxed. "What are you?"

Eternal Sailor Moon looked up at him in surprise. "I'm Lunarian actually, and you're not quite human. What are you?"

"Lunarian? As in the moon?"

"The very one," she said, smiling brightly. "Well, you didn't answer my question. What are you?"

The saiya-jin relaxed, he sat down on the floor next to her, the tier was still in her hands, he would have to work on that. "Don't you remember me?"

Her eyebrows drew dangerously close to her eyeballs. "Don't try anything."

Apparantly she didn't remember him. And it tore him apart. He waited all those years to meet the girl of his dreams, only to find she didn't remember. She had probably saved millions of poor unlucky souls like himself. Heck he was surprised she talked to him. "Never mind." If any of the fighters ever saw him soften like this—

"I'm saiya-jin, we come from a planet called Vegeta."

"But you're Vegeta," she said, slowly putting the tier away.

"I'm the prince of Vegeta, so that's my name. I'm the princeof all saiya-jins," Vegeta began.

The girl gave him a smile, "I get it. Yeah, Gohan said you were the prince of something or other but then he stopped talking."

The prince's fist tightened. "That's right," he fought to keep his voice even. He stared at her, the rain was trickling gently down her face, she was looking hopefully at the earth. He saw her brows furrow as she searched for the moon. "No the moon's gone. That Namek destroyed it." He watched her mouth open in surprise. "It's all because of that brat Gohan that he had to do it," Vegeta loved life.

"How could someone just destroy the moon?" she asked no one, her face flashing from happy to sad.

"Ready to go back?" he asked her. How did she get here anyway, he wondered.

"Alright," she sounded a bit peeved.

"It's supposed to be a full moon tonight, right?" The girl nodded. "Okay, but don't make me look at it, alright?" She looked confused, but nodded again. Vegeta used his power, creating the moon as he had when he first fought Goku.

The core formed first, it was all lost in a swirling cyclone of desbris. When the cloud blew away there was the moon. Bright and shiny, Eternal Sailor Moon felt her power increase, as did Vegeta. Now he knew where she got her power. He watched her face light up as it glimmered. He smiled himself, not a smirk, a real one-hundred percent genuine smile.

"Thank you!" she shouted throwing her arms around the surprised saiya-jin. She pulled out her locket, showing the crystal. Vegeta guessed it was one of those girly trinkets Bulma always carried around. "See Vegeta," she held the broach closer. "Look how much brighter it is."

The ginzuishou brightened, creating a silver aura around the two, the rain bounced off of the invisible shield. The girl bounced with glee. "Doomo arigatoo gozaimasu, Vegeta-san!"

Vegeta wondered if any woman could ever get that polite. He didn't respond.

"Oooh! Look the sun is coming up on earth, we should get back," Vegeta felt like blowing up the sun. Vegeta grumbled a goodbye and headed for the saiya-jin pod. "Hey! Where're ya going? Oh cool! A spaceship! Can I come in?"

"It's a little small," Vegeta began.

"Oh! So I'm fat am I? Well Mr. I'm-the-prince-of-all-saiya-jins I'm royalty too!" she said stubbornly, then realizing what she had revealed she clamped her hand over her mouth.

Vegeta's eyebrows went far up. A prince deserved a princess. It dawned on him that she felt insulted.

"So you're going to ignore me then are you? Fine! Be that way!" with that she turned smartly on her heel and walked a bit before vanishing with the crystal.

He just stared. He had blown it again. "Kuso."

Well! I hope this changes some of your views on who the ruler of the universe is. I'm still debating who, so tell me who and why in your review or email me @ tenshihellen@hotmail.com ja!
