~~I've Gotta Find You
(Richie McDonald/Marty Dodson/Ron Harbin)
I've got this dream that won't go away
When I close my eyes your there night and day
Baby whatever it takes I've Gotta find you

Are you someone I know or that I'll meet by chance
Are you somewhere close or in a far away land
Across the ocean or burnin' sand, I've Gotta find you

I've Gotta find you, don't care how long it takes
I know when I do it'll be worth the wait
With God as my witness and love as my guiding star
Maybe Miami on some sandy beach
New York City making waves on Wall Street
No matter where you are, I've Gotta find you
I've Gotta find you

You could be a checker at the grocery store
For all I know you're the girl next door
One thing I know for sure, I've Gotta find you

You might be a waitress workin' your way through school
Or the anchor person on the six o'clock news
Only my heart knows who, I've Gotta find you

I've Gotta find you, don't care how long it takes
I know when I do it'll be worth the wait
With God as my witness and love as my guiding star
Maybe Miami on some sandy beach
New York City making waves on Wall Street
No matter where you are, I've Gotta find you

No matter where you are, I've Gotta find you
I've Gotta find you~~

MWAHAHAAHAH
AHAHAHAHA

"Umm...Odango, would you like to tell me just *why* you have that
silly grin on your face?"


I stuck my tongue out at him, "That's for me to know and you to find
out!"

I had it all planned out, something so stupid and outrageous. Anyone
would fall for it. I gloated to myself, Usagi, you've outdone yourself this
time!

I think back to the first night I spent at Mamo-chan's apartment, now I
comfortable stay at his place, until my place is redone. It turns out that the
owner of the apartment was waiting for someone to break down that wall. Every
night, I end up sleeping on the floor next to Mamo-chan, and every morning, he
calls me a Baka, for sleeping on the floor, if I had his comfy bed, and every
morning, we had Odangos for breakfast.

We act as if, the first night here, never happened, its back to Odango and
Baka. I sigh; I miss that side he showed that night of him.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~Usagi~~

Part 1: Dating Service

Mamo-chan sat at his comfy black chair reading his novel. I lay across
the couch just doodling through the magazine pages. The door rang, "I'll get
it!" I shouted, A young blond sultry woman was at the door, "Like, where is the
hunk that lives here? He signed up for the dating service? I'm like so his
date!" I grinned to myself, let's see him get out of this one.

"Mamoru, there's someone at the door for you!" I shouted to the back.
He came trudging out in his sweats and white T-shirt with a book in his hand
and glasses on his face. "Who is it Usagi?" He asked, "Why your date of course!"
His face went blank, "Date?" "Silly silly!" I said with a grin, "How could you
forget, now you two kids have fun!" and I yanked him out of his own apartment,
without him saying a word.
Hmmm....5-
4-
3-
2-
"ODANGO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
1-....hmmm...he was early...I realized as I stared at my watch.
a heavy pounding startled me at the door, "Eck!!! Get off you wrench!
Ack! Help! Someone, anyone! Odango Atama you are in BIG trouble young lady!" I
winced as he yelled, and more banging came from outside.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

~~Mamoru~~

Why that traitor Usako! How am I supposed to get rid of this girl now?

*cough cough* "So, ah... How come such a beauty like you is going out on
blind dates?"

*Squeeze* *gasp* Now I know why, the girl hugs, and my lungs collapse.

I begin to loose vision, is that Usako going to get it now or what?

I slipped to the floor, what the HECK? The girl is STILL on me! I find my
way to my pocket, and pulled out the pink communicator, and pressed the "panic"
button.

I faintly hear Usako squeal at the new noise, she doesn't seem to care at
all. I full loose consciousness, my last thought, was My precious Usako.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

~~Usagi~~

*beep* *beep* *beep* I bit my nails, as I desperately try to ignore his
help call, I bit my nails harder, what if he was in real trouble?
ARGH!!!
I give in, and opened the door, to see the leech suffocating a collapsed
Mamo-chan. I pry the strange lady off him,

"Hey! We're going on a date here."
I grinned wryly, "But he's my boyfriend lady, now back off."
Flames flicker in her eyes, then she dashes away, because she obviously
didn't want to get involved. I look down at Mamo-chan to see how he was. I sigh,
this wasn't suppose to happen, he was suppose to have a bad time, but he wasn't
suppose to get hurt. I check his pulse and if he was still breathing.

My Gosh, he wasn't breathing! I started to panic, Usagi look what you did,
Mamo-chan is going to kill you now! I took in along breath, and checked one more
time, to see whether he was breathing or not. Still, nothing came out and
nothing came in. I gulped hard, I'm going to have to do, CPR on him.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~Mamoru~~

My life flashed before my eyes, nothing of it any good, until Usako bumped
into me. My life lonely and out of existence, even with Andrew as my best
friend. I was still lonely, but it was Usako that filled that empty part of me.

If I live through this psycho lady's torture, I'll confess everything to
Usako, she's the one that can make my dreams go away, she's the one that makes
me smile and laugh, she is the one I love.

I felt a light pull, and I felt my eyes again and they opened. Usako knelt
over me with a very worried face. She was biting her nails again, I lifted my
hands to hers to stop her. She froze and looked down at me.

She collapsed on my shoulder, "Oh Mamo-chan, I thought that I killed you.
I'm so sorry! Gomen gomen gomen..."

I wrapped my arms around her, "Usako, you didn't kill me."
She froze when I called her Usako, I held her tighter, I'm not going to
let her get away. She has cared about me more than any other human being. An
explosion was heard from beyond my apartment door.

Luna bolted out, battered and frail, "Usagi, Metallica, she's here!"
Usagi bolted out of my embraces, her eyes clouded and hardened like
before. She reached into her back pocket and pulled out her wand, and locket.

I whispered quietly to her, "Usako, I'm with you,
I love you." Perhaps, she never heard.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~Usagi~~

"Moon Prism Power!" I shouted, this is where all my past training comes
down to, I knew it was only a matter of time, before Metallica found me. I went
down to the floor, and pressed the big red button, it was for the most top
emergencies.

The dark dark evil woman, stood tall and white, "Serenity, At last, I have
found you."

I narrowed my eyes, "Serenity, you and Beryl both spoke of Serenity, but
my name is not Serenity!"

She chucked a dark laugh, "Foolish Moon Child, you play as if you do not
know. Do you think you can trick me, foolish Moon Child indeed."

My eyes widened, MoonChild? Serenity? Who did they think I was?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~Luna~~

Why didn't I see it before? Why didn't Usagi tell me, that Beryl called
her Serenity. After all these years, she was right in front of us. Tears slipped
down my face, Princess Serenity has been found, and I couldn't protect her from
Metallica. But why hasn't her powers awaken yet?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~Usagi~~

I decided to play along Metallica's foolish crusade, "You are right, how
could have a tried to trick you. You Metallica know, that you can not win."

Her dark essence swirled around me, brought my hair to stand.

"Foolish Little Princess, your mother said the same thing, right before I
destroyed you and your love. She killed herself, wastefully sending you and the
people of the moon to Earth. It is only a matter of time, before I would find
you."

My mother? But, what did my sweet mother have to do with this?

My thoughts were quickly interrupted, "Usagi, use your wand!"

I chanted the words, "Moon Cosmic Power"

A bright light emitted from the wand, the power surged through the rod.
But, Metallica was not affected, "MWAHHAHHAHAA, Foolish Moon Child. Your
pathetic wand can not save you. Why are you not using your precious crystal?"

My eyes widened, She thinks I am the Moon Princess?'
Metallica blew a powerful sphere towards me. I was paralyzed in fear.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~Mamoru~~

My eyes widened as the large deadly sphere shot towards Usako. Thousands of
thoughts ran through my head. And in the end, I did what I could only do, get in
the way.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~Usagi~~

Closer and closer it came, I willed myself to get out of the way, after all
the years of training. I couldn't move, not even an inch. I squeezed my eyes
shut, for my inevitable end.

Like the many other lucky times before it didn't come. But I didn't feel so
lucky, when I saw what had happened. Mamo-chan's body was battered, and in fatal
condition. Tears sprang forth, "Mamoru? Mamoru wake up please." I turned him
over carefully, as Metallica commented, "Foolish human mortal." Still
unconscious, I checked his breathing and heartbeat. Both were slow, and getting
slower, I cried out, "Mamoru, please please don't die on me."
"You can't get rid of me that easily Odango." He coughed up.
But I knew he was lying, my hand still at his wrist, I felt his heart beat
slowly, but surely fall. I knelt over, and cried, but his hand covered mine, and
I heard a faint whisper before he faded away, "Usako, I love you."

"Nonononononononono." I barely whispered, this can't be. He wasn't supposed
to die. Just as I was about to give up, a bright, bright beautiful creature
stood before me. She had long silver hair, that were put up the same way as
mine, a crescent moon placed on her pale smooth forehead. She was tall and
elegant, with a pair of gorgeous fairy wings. I looked carefully around, time
seemed to have stopped. The Fairy walked towards me.

"My child. I am sorry, for everything that has happened. I never wanted it
to come to this." Her voice was angelic calm, and sweet.

"Who are you?" I asked, confusion was written all over me.

She smiled, and something of familiar hit me, "I am Queen Serenity of the
Moon."

My eyes widened, the queen? The same one in all the stories and legends that
Luna had told. The one that sacrificed herself, so that we were able to survive.
I didn't know whether to hug her, or to kneel down and bow.
She continued, "You see, I know very well, who I am, but do you know, who
you are?"

I tilted my head slightly, and starred at her immensely.
"I don't know, at least not anymore." I answered slowly.

"Princess Serenity of the Moon. You were reborn on Earth with a new family.
Daughter of Ellen and Ken Tsukino, Usagi Tsukino. Also known as Sailor Moon. the
champion of Love and Justice." Queen Serenity knelt down next to me.

"My Child, you are all those, and more. But you will always be the same
person. And in this lifetime, you are Usagi Tsukino. And that is all that
matters." Something unbearably bright shone beneath her palms.

"Usagi Tsukino, please use this crystal to save the world. Only your pure
heart, can weld this crystal."

She dropped the powerful silver crystal into my hands, kissed me on the
forehead and faded away, "Farewell my child."

Tears came to my eyes again, I didn't remember her. But, I cried for her
disappearance.

Time resumed again, Mamoru was dying on me. I needed to do something fast.

The queen said, that I could weld the crystal, but she never said how.
Metallica unaware of what had happened, started to power up again for another
fatal shot.

I hoped, Silver Crystal, Please save this world.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~^^~~
Usagi stood there unmoving as a calm bright light engulfed her. After the
light dimmed, Usagi wore a beautiful gown, which could very well have been made
with moonbeams. Usagi opened her glowing eyes, to face Metallica once and for
all.
Luna looked on at the amazing sight, tears came to her eyes, as she realizes
just how much of a princess Usagi really is.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~Mamoru~~

In the dark and lonely place, I could hear Usako calling, but I couldn't
follow, then a bright light filled the place where I was, not a single trace of
darkness was found. My loneliness melted away, and my eyes opened back into my
apartment. Where the most beautiful sight stood before me. The moon princess I
have been searching for, was right in front of me all this time. And, the
saddest thing of all, is that somehow, I always knew it was her.

I lifted my arms, and attempted to get up, after a little while of
struggling, I was able to sit up. Usagi was at my side, in a few short seconds,
"Mamoru! You're okay, I was so worried about you."
I smiled, "You can't get rid of me that easily Usako."
She smiled her warm smile back. But our happy moment was quickly interrupted.

"So princess, you have decided to finally show some true colours. This just
makes this oh-so much more fun." Grinned Metallica, a shiver went down my back,
and Usagi was trembling with fear. But I could tell, she was stronger than ever,
and she proved this to me, long before I ever found out about her other
identities.

She could stay cheerful and bright, under any circumstances. And, her wailing,
and klutzing was simply, her. She was klutzy because she was growing, she wailed
because she was sensitive. But, she is strong. Stronger than anyone I have
known, she can boldly be herself. And, perhaps, that is why I love her, because
she is her. Taking her hand, I help pull her up, to face Metallica for the final
battle.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~Usagi~~

Mamoru pulled my trembling form off the floor, and hold me up to face
Metallica. The smirk on her face, brought back to many horrible memories. But
the warm bright crystal I held in my hand, reminded me, of how it could be. I
had the power to give earth the past life I never had, and if I have to die to
give it, then I will.

I held the crystal up, and silently hoped, hoped hard for the world to have the
one beautiful thing I can help keep, life.

A warm bright intoxicating power surged through, and I whispered, "Moon Cosmic
Power"
