Konnichiwa, minna! I'm guessing that if you're reading this, you like my fic so far... *giggle* Thanks for putting up with me, everyone! Anyway, I'm done blabbing. Enjoy!
By the way, when I say "Tokyo girls", I mean the five Sailor Scouts in, well, normal form.
Scouts in the Mysterious Play

The blue Suzaku was by no means an ally. It was worse than an enemy. It was deadly.
It was the reincarnation of both Galaxia and Tenkou.
In Suzaku's body.
********************************************************************************
Back at Mt. Taikyoku, the 5 Tokyo girls were sitting outside on the palace steps. Although the view was cheerful and brightening enough, it did nothing to lighten the tension. It had been a week since Raye disappeared. The only clue they had was that she was somewhere in another dimension, another world.
Serena bit her lip and tears unwillingly began to leak out of her sapphire blue eyes. Lita put her arm around her comfortingly. Mina and Amy smiled encouragingly.
"Come on, Meatball Head! Raye's not such a dumb clutz like you! She'd be able to find her way out of wherever she is, no problem," Mina tried to tease.
It only brought Serena more sadness. "That's something R-Raye might have said," she murmured.
Darien appeared behind them. "Hey, Buns! Can I join you girls?"
Amy smiled up at him. "Well, I guess that won't be a problem."
The six people sat quietly, all of them far away from home. The sun began to make its way down the sky, leaving the moon to rule over the night. Serena stared dreamily at it. Although they were in a totally different world, the sun still rose in the east and set in the west, and the moon was always there to shine comfortingly on her.
********************************************************************************
Mars yawned widely in the blinking sunlight, then shivered. She had slept restlessly the night before. Not only was the problem of getting back to Miaka and the others bothering her, but also the frigid night air was getting to her. Once again, she heartedly wished for either longer skirts or pants instead of the fuku they were stuck in.
She sat in the grass just thinking mild thoughts. Thoughts from her past life in the Moon Kingdom, her present life in Juuban as a Sailor Scout, and her current situation.
She laughed to herself, "Really, how many times have I thought about being here? And how many times has it helped me at all?"
Her laugh sounded a little depressed though. Sighing once again, she trudged on ahead down the skinny, winding trail.
A few hours later, Mars stopped at a tree stump to take a short rest. This trail felt like it'd never stop...winding on, mocking her and her futile efforts. Was it really worth traveling? And what if it was the wrong way entirely? What if she would never see Serena, Mina, Chad, Grandpa...
'Stop it, Raye! You know better than to think like that! You will find them! Everything always turns out happily ever after for you! Besides, you have the Mars Eternal Flame by your side! Everyone knows that that's a sign of good luck and fortune!' she scolded herself in her thoughts.
Suddenly, a warm rush of air breezed by her. Somewhere in the distance, she heard the flapping of a bird's wings. The sound of tinkling bells floated through the wind. Mars gasped as she sensed an obvious presence.
Suzaku was there.
Mars stood still, feeling the wind brush by her skin. She sensed him everywhere, and yet he wasn't in sight. Her black hair flew around her, dancing with the wind of Suzaku. Yet where was he? She looked up again, searching the skies and treetops. His body energy was getting stronger and clearer.
'Fear not, Sailor Mars.'
She gasped. It was that same voice, that same feeling as the last time she met Suzaku. He was talking through her mind, yet was nowhere to be seen.
Half-whispering, she murmured, "S-Suzaku? Is that you?"
Once again, a strong voice passed through her mind, 'Yes. Trust me, Mars, I will not do you any harm.'
Her head felt confused and cluttered. Breathing heavily, she asked into the wind, "How did you know who I was? How did I get here? What's going on?" The last question was spoken desperately and fearfully.
Directly in front of her, a swirl of red light and glitter fell from the sky. The light began to take shape until it formed the shape of Suzaku. It was the exact image of what Mars had seen in the room in the palace.
'I will explain everything once we get there. First of all, do you trust me?' the voice asked.
Mars didn't know what to say. Was this the real Suzaku, the one who had led Miaka into the Universe of the Four Gods? Or was it the Suzaku that she had seen in her meditation, the blue one that was the reincarnation of Galaxia and Tenkou? What was she supposed to answer?
Hesitantly, she said, "I, well, I guess I do." Instantly, she regretted those words.
Suzaku smiled reassuringly. Spreading its wings, it replied, 'Climb on me, then. I'm taking you to a place where only I can enter."
Sailor Mars bit her lip anxiously, then stepped towards the bird. He impatiently motioned his wings for her to climb on. Reluctantly, she approached him, and struggled to straddle her legs across Suzaku's wide back. Immediately, his wings spread open and flew off with Mars clutching his neck for dear life.

Heehee! Cliffhanger! Sorry this one's so short! I promise a longer one next time! Oh, and remember to review this fic!
Remember, Sailor Moon and Fushigi Yuugi don't belong to me. (I don't have the talent... *sob*) Nuff said.
