All right, real important. *****You have to read this to understand!***** All right, this is a *flashback* to see how Usagi and Vegeta got together. This is set when Vegeta had just turned into the BIG monkey thing, whatever he called it. He is about to crush Goku (but he won't) when Usagi shows up. She has all the senshi's powers but can use them whenever she wants. She doesn't turn into Sailor Moon. Understand?
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
The Saiyan in his hands screamed in pain as he squeezed harder. Vegeta's lips pulled back to reveal white fangs as he sneered.
"Where's all that strength now, Kakarott?" he taunted and tightened his hands. Kakarott screamed again, louder this time. Vegeta felt bones snap beneath the bruised hide of the Saiyan fool.
"Hey, monkey!" yelled a voice through the air. It reached Vegeta's ears very clearly. His sneer faded and he turned around to see where the voice had come from. He scanned the ground but couldn't see anyone. "Up here!" it called again and he looked up.
On a ledge slightly above his head on a mountainside was a girl, her arms crossed and her blue eyes glaring at him.
"Let him go!" she ordered. Vegeta burst out laughing. Here was a girl out in the middle of no where demanding he drop the pile of broken bones in his hands. Her golden hair was pulled from her face and bound in two buns. She wore a white tank top and blue jean shorts
"And what will you do about it? Cry until I finally let him go?" he taunted. Her eyes narrowed on him. His grip tightened on Kakarott. He screamed.
"Princess!" he managed to yell. "Get out of here!"
"No way, Goku. Him and his 'buddy' killed everyone that I held dear to me. He won't get away with that!" As she yelled the last sentence she held her hands in the air. "Neptune Deep Submerge!"
A blue planet formed in her hands and she thrust them forward, the planet coming towards Vegeta. He just laughed and let it hit him. He wavered slightly.
"Princess, huh? Still no match for me, but why not? Seems persistent," Vegeta snarled and dropped Kakarott. One minute he was watching the girl and then she was gone. He blinked once and looked down. She was beside the fallen Kakarott, speaking to him.
"Goku, why did you think you would be able to beat him alone? The only reason I didn't come here was because I promised I wouldn't get involved in this fight," she said softly. "And then Gohan and Krillen show up at Master Roshi's and say you're in horrible shape!"
"So they made it there? Good," Kakarott said and grinned slightly through his grimace of pain. "But you have to get out of here, Usagi. It isn't safe!"
"Who ever said that being a warrior was safe?" she scolded and stood up, looking straight into Vegeta's red eyes. "Now I have something to take care of."
Once again she disappeared and Vegeta couldn't track her. A burst of energy hit him in the back of his head and he cursed, turning around to see her hovering behind him, her eyes burning with blue fire and her face set in a determined look.
"Useless," he said and swiped at her, narrowly missing her. She dodged and flew at his face, forming a fireball in her hands. His hand flew at her again and she threw the ball at his face, hitting him under the eye. He hit her and sent her to the ground. He rubbed his eye and couldn't open it.
'Then I'll just use one,' he thought savagely and sent a fist at the girl. She cried out and rolled out of the way, jumping to her feet and trying to get behind him. His foot slammed down in front of her and she stopped, spinning around to face him.
Her face lightened for some reason and he frowned. The next thing he knew she held out her hand and a green four symbol appeared in her palm.
"Jupiter..." The four turned into green lightning and surrounded her. "Oak..." She brought her hands to her chest and began to spin in place. "Evolution!" she yelled and held her hands in the air, green leaves flying out at him. He was too shocked to move.
A sharp stinging erupted on his back and a he heard a thud behind him. He turned his head and saw his tail, convulsively twitching on the ground. He was horrified.
"Wha- what have you done?!" he roared as he turned back to the girl who was getting bigger and bigger. His detransformation had begun.
"I got rid of one problem," she said softly as she stepped forward. She stopped about ten feet in front of him. "Now it's your turn."
He was back to normal and he looked down at her. His rage blinded him and he lashed out at her, hitting her in the stomach. She doubled over and went to the ground. She smirked and swung her legs out and under him, sending him to the ground as well. He didn't hit the ground but jumped back landing on his feet briefly before shooting at her again.
She was on her feet as well, crouched into her fighting stance.
"This is why you don't mess with an angry Lunarian," she whispered and a column of ice and water was billowing towards him. He jumped into the air and over it, flying towards the girl. A scowl was on his face.
A Lunarian princess, is she? Weren't they extinct?
He formed a ball of energy in his hands and she cupped hers behind her back, forming one as well.
"Galactic Gun!" he yelled and a beam of energy flew down at her. She just gritted her teeth and brought her hands forward, shooting her counter attack. Both attacks hit each other and an explosion carried over the plains.
When the dust cleared both warriors were still standing, the prince having the upper hand. The explosion nearly knocked the girl off her feet and she had lost precious ground in the battle. She couldn't make up for it. She just clenched her teeth against the pain in her arm where a large gash was.
Vegeta smirked as he watched her. It was a pity he had to kill her. She was the prettiest female he had seen.
She closed her eyes but continued the attack. He frowned as he watched her. She was losing energy, he was sure.
A pale white light seemed to envelope her, causing her to power up even more. Then out of no where Vegeta watched as the bulge of powerful energy traveled up her attack and collided with his, making him falter and lose his attack. He watched as the white light blasted towards him, unable to move.
Pain roared through him as he was caught by the blast. He yelled as it engulfed him.
He didn't see the girl collapse to the ground, gasping for breath as she watched her attack. Her eyes widened when she saw it die down, Vegeta hovering there, cuts and bruises covering the skin that his torn armor revealed. Half of it was gone, revealing one side of his chest and his remaining sleeve barely remaining at all. His hair was a mess and he breathed in deeply as he watched her.
"Oh, Kami-sama, you're still here," she said between breaths.
"I'm still here," he growled and began to glide to the ground.
"You aren't supposed to be! That blast was supposed to destroy you!"
"Well, it didn't!" he snapped and began gathering energy in his palm.
"That blast was pure moon power. It destroys anything that has an evil heart," she said through clenched teeth. He didn't care what she said. "You're not evil!" she yelled and slammed her fist to the ground, hanging her head in defeat.
"What are you babbling about, woman!" he yelled. He was getting fed up with this useless rambling on.
"I can't destroy you because you have a pure heart. Why? I have no idea. Just get over with," she begged him without looking up. He, however, was staring down at her. He growled and absorbed his energy. He didn't know what came over him.
He pulled out his remote for his pod and pressed in a code.
He was about to turn away from her but something caught him. He turned back to her and saw she was back on her feet, although unsteadily. She had her back to him. He didn't know what got over him. First he was just staring at her back and then he had grabbed her arm, spinning her around to face him. She nearly cried out when he grabbed her but bit it back, her eyes wide on his.
He watched her face, mesmerized. Something about her... His gloved hand lifted to her smooth but dirty cheek, carressing it softly. She just stood there, frozen, hundreds of emotions in her expressive eyes.
"Congragulations, woman," he said softly and pushed her away from him, watching as his space pod landed about twenty feet from him. He never looked back. He got inside the pod and the door closed. He felt drowsy as gasses filled the pod. The last thing he saw was the woman outside his window, watching him from where he left her.
Then his eyes closed.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
'What was that about?' Usagi thought to herself as she watched the pod take off. Her cheek still tingled from where he had touched her. She lifted a hand to the tingling skin.
"Usagi," groaned Goku and she snapped out of her reverie, turning and running to her long-time friend. He was in awful shape, just as Krillen and Gohan had said. She just shook her head and dug in her pocket for the senzu bean Coran had given her. She stuck it in his mouth for him because he said she needed it more than him.
"Goku, if I had a mirror with me then I would let you see yourself. Unfortunately I don't, so have a bean," she ordered and stuffed it inside his mouth, clamping her hand over his mouth before he could spit it up. She glared at him. "Princess orders."
He sighed before chewing. Immediately his bruises faded and his cuts were gone. She stood up and offered him a hand.
"Thanks, Usagi. Hey, what did Vegeta tell you before he left?" Goku asked her as they brushed themselves off.
"Who?" she replied, frowning.
"Vegeta, the guy who just left. The prince who nearly made me into a pile of mulch. Although I don't think he's a prince anymore considering him and me are the last full blooded Saiyans left in the universe," he babbled.
"Goku?" Usagi interupted sweetly.
"Yeah?"
"Shut up," she said. He just broke into one of his silly grins and blushed.
"Geez, I'm sorry, I just keep talking and talking-" he began but she cut him off again.
"Tell me about it." Both of the friends erupted into laughter.
"Hey, thanks for saving my hide back there. He was just a lot stronger than I thought," Goku explained and Usagi just shook her head.
"Don't worry about it. I would have done it for a complete stranger if I had to," she replied and looked up when she heard a wail. Chichi was practically hanging out the window of Bulma's hover car.
"Goku!" she cried. Goku looked up at his wife, waving and grinning his trademark grin. Tears were streaming down Chichi's cheeks as she stumbled out of the hover car when it finally landed, embracing Goku. He whispered to her and she occasionally nodded. Soon her sobs subsided and everyone got into the hover car.
Except Usagi.
'I wish I had a commitment like that,' she thought sadly. 'Mamoru is just-'
"Hey! Usagi! Let's go!" Goku called and she smiled, nodding and joining her remaining friends.
"Usagi," Chichi said softly, getting the other girls attention.
"Yes, Chichi?" she replied.
"I just want to thank you for saving Goku's life. If we lost him in this fight then we wouldn't be able to bring him back with the Dragonballs."
"Hey, don't mention it. It's just my job," Usagi explained. "You don't have to thank me for that," she whispered and looked out the window, watching the ground below. She tenderly touched her arm and winced when her fingers lightly touched the bruised and cut skin of the gash she recieved while fighting Vegeta.
'Vegeta. Weird name,' she thought and continued watching outside the window. 'But I guess Usagi isn't very common either.'
"You guys, what about the others?" Bulma asked cautiously. "Piccolo is gone so Kami is too!"
"I forgot all about that!" Goku exclaimed as he slapped his forehead.
"Relax. I have it all figured out. What is Piccolo and Kami?" Usagi asked the group without turning around.
"I have no idea," Goku replied. "I just always thought they were different."
"Goku!" all the girls exclaimed and he looked around, dumbfounded.
"What?" he asked innocently. Usagi just rolled her head but smiled as she did so.
"They're Namekian. There has to be others from where Kami came from, right? Then there are most likely Dragonballs there as well. In fact, I'm pretty sure I heard them talking about the balls last time I was there," Usagi said.
"What do you mean, 'last time you were there'?" Bulma asked, puzzled.
"When I was the princess I sometimes traveled with my mother to other planets. We visted Namek several times. It was absolutely beautiful there."
"Wait! Usagi, do you know the location of the planet?" Bulma asked.
"Yeah." Usagi gave her the coordinates of the planet and watched as Bulma looked at the distance. Bulma paled when she saw something. "What is it?"
"It-it's over three hundred lightyears away! How will we ever find a ship fast enough to make that trip before we are ancient mummies?"
"I don't know. Me and mother just used inter-dimensional travel."
"Hey, Kami had to have gotten here somehow, right? Just find out how and then we're in business," Goku piped up. The three women just stared at him, their eyes wide with shock.
"Goku, you're a genius," Usagi said and he laughed.
"Thanks!"
They went by Master Roshi's house to pick up Krillen and Gohan. Usagi said that she was going to stay there for a few hours. She had flown there and she would fly home.
"Hey, how'd it go?" Master Roshi asked.
"We're still here, aren't we?" Usagi asked with a grin as she embraced him.
"So you won?" Oolong persisted. Usagi nodded and he did a little victory dance with Turtle. "We beat some Saiyan butt!" he cheered and Usagi cleared her throat.
"Um... we? Oolong, I didn't see you at the fight," she said sweetly.
"Well... You beat some Saiyan butt!" he corrected and continued the dance. Usagi just laughed and soon everyone on the island had joined Oolong. They had a big bonfire near the beach and danced around it late into the night.
Usagi said her goodbyes and at around midnight left for her own home.
It was a fairly large house with three bedrooms and two stories nestled into the outskirts of Juuban forest. It was near a road that was frequented by people but not very often. She sighed and unlocked her door, stepping into the dark house. She flipped on the light near the door.
She cried out when a dark object jumped out at her. It landed on her chest and crawled ot her shoulder.
"Oh, Kami, Luna, you scared me!" she yelled.
"Where have you been?" the cat demanded. Fury burned in her brown eyes, but concern as well. Usagi smiled softly and held Luna closer, rubbing her cheek on the cat's fur.
"Celebrating. The fight ended about five hours ago. We won," Usagi sighed. "Any messages?" she asked as she walked to the answering machine.
"Baka called. Wanted to make a date," Luna replied, a little stunned at Usagi's actions. "Usagi, I am-was- your guardian and advisor on the moon. I'm excercising my rights in both of those when I tell you that Mamo-baka isn't good enough for you. Not nearly good enough!"
"Luna, I've had a long day. My head hurt and I want to go to bed. Come on," she said and turned around to walk up the stairs.
"Usagi!" Luna cried but Usagi just ignored her, frowning, and continued up the stairs. It wasn't Luna that was bothering her, but that guy.
He had been so ruthless on the battlefield, but had treated her so gently afterwards. Why did he leave so abruptly? Wasn't he supposed to take over Earth?
She groaned and went to bed. She would sleep in tomorrow and let the others do what they wanted to do.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
I guess I'll have to make at least a second chapter to the *flashback*. It'll end when I say it does. Anyways, in the next chapter, Goku, Gohan, Krillen, and Bulma go to Namek. Usagi decides to stay behind in case anymore enemies threaten the Earth. Just read it and I'll try to explain it in the story. ^_^ Please remember to review. Ja!

The Saiyan in his hands screamed in pain as he squeezed harder. Vegeta's lips pulled back to reveal white fangs as he sneered.
"Where's all that strength now, Kakarott?" he taunted and tightened his hands. Kakarott screamed again, louder this time. Vegeta felt bones snap beneath the bruised hide of the Saiyan fool.
