Chp 7
Chp 7. To Protect you

Usagi got hurt in her first battle, even thought she was the strongest of the pilots. She got the most hurt. Why because she was saving the one she loved, but can he face her now, whom he feels it was his fault she got hurt.

" Heero, it's not your fault, she was doing it to protect you." Dup said sitting next to Heero, who was sitting in a chair next to Usagi's bed.

" Yes it is, if I was more careful, this wouldn't have happened." Heero said with a bit of sadness.

" No it's isn't! And we all know it, she did it because she… she loves you." Duo said holding his hands in fists while he said.

"  No she doesn't, I can clearly see that she loves Wufei, if not him Trowa." Heero said looking at Usagi with his sad, cold eyes.

" Well believe what you want to believe Heero." Duo said as he walked out of the room.

" Usagi… no she doesn't love me, how can she love me. A person who killed so many people, no she doesn't love me." Heero said as he looked at her face while she slept.

Heero watched over her for the rest of the night, but when he fell asleep, Usagi opened her eyes. To see that Heero was sitting next to her.

" Heero." Usagi said quietly.

" He watched over me, this whole time. He's so sweet" Usagi said as she stroked her hand over his brown hair.

Usagi smiled at him sleeping, and she felt this feeling in her heart every time she was near him, she really didn't him well like she did the others. But she felt close to him. Like she'd known him all her life.

The next morning Heero woke up to see Usagi sitting next to window looking out into the sky.

' Usagi, what's the matter? Are you in any sort of pain?' Heero asked with little concern.

" No I'm fine Heero, just thinking" Usagi said as she gave him a warm smile.

" You're thinking about Mamoru, and the scouts." Heero said as put the chair next to her and sat down.

" Yeah… they were like best friends to me, and Mamoru, I loved him. But he only used me, now he's saying he really did love me, and wants to marry me." Usagi said as a tear fell down her cheek.

Heero wiped away her tear, and hugged her.

' Don't worry, we'll beat them and I won't let him hurt you ever again." Heero said with a warm voice as he hugged her gently.

" Heero…" Usagi whispered as Heero was comforting her.

" Well now that is just so sweet, don't you think so Relena?" Dorothy said das she turned to Relena.

Relena was red with jealously and she was about to burst.

' Uh oh… Better get her out of here!" Dorothy said as she dragged Relena out of the room away from Usagi and Heero.

Usagi came out of her room, with Heero helping her, the other four pilots, were glaring at Heero.

' Hi you guys, nice to see all up early" Usagi said a she smiled at the boy.

" Hi Usagi!' all four boys said out loud.

As the day went along, Heero helped Usagi get around because she was still hurt.

' Thank you for helping me Heero, sorry if I'm being a burden to you' Usagi said as she felt guilty that Heero had to help her.

' No it's not problem. I really like being with you." Heero couldn't believe what he just said.

Usagi blushed a bit. ' Well that's… nice to say Heero." Usagi didn't know what to say, and Heero couldn't say anything. Then Heero took a sharp glance behind then, for he felt that they weren't alone.

' Usagi stay close, I don't think we are alone.' Heero said being protective of her.

' Haha, you have good senses Heero," as one of the Sailor scouts came out of the darkness/

" Makoto! What do you want! You said we have another battle in two days!" Usagi yelled at Makoto.

" Oh yeah we did say that, didn't we, but you know us. We never keep what we say!" Makoto said as she pulled out a full set of daggers.

" It's time to die Usagi!, Mamoru said not to kill you, but if you were dead. We could destroy this world and we can have our power.' Makoto said, as she was about to come closer to Usagi.

" Stay Back! I don't care if you're a girl, I will gladly kill you if you lay a finger on her!' Heero yelled at Makoto in anger.

' Heero No! She' s too powerful!' Usagi yelled as Heero didn't care he wanted to keep her safe.

 Makoto smirked, then she threw daggers at Heero, and He dodged them. Then they both engaged into a battle under the moonlight.

" Heero stop!' Usagi cried out.

 Makoto threw a few more, but Heero could dodge them and he was hit in the leg and the shoulder. Then he fell to the ground.

" Heero!" Usagi cried out as she tried to run the Heero.

" I'm okay I can still fight!" Heero said as he got up.

" No... I will fight her" Usagi said in a cold tone.

" But you can't your hurt!" Heero said as he tried to back her down from the fight, but she wouldn't listen.

" Makoto, you will fight me!" Usagi said in a cold tone.

" Heero noticed something, a bright light surrounded Usagi and she was totally healed, but still she had a few minor injuries, and he was worried.

" Well Princess, it's time to die!" Makoto said while charging at Usagi, but she missed as Usagi moved out of the way and hit Makoto in the back, and send her to ground.

" How could she have gotten this good, she was never that good" Makoto thought as she looked at Usagi.

" ARGHH! DAMN YOU!" Makoto yelled at as took out a two knives, and hurled them toward Usagi.

Usagi could only dodged one, because she was still recovering from her other battle wounds. The knife went through her left side, and she screamed in pain.

Usagi got off the ground with blood dripping from her side and blood on her hands.

She still wasn't giving up; she got up and put her to her chest and a blue energy formed from her hands. She took the energy out of her hands and threw it at Makoto. Makoto was hit, and she hit a tree, and blood began to flow down her face and arms.

" What! What the hell was that! She never had this kind of energy!" Makoto yelled.

" Usagi!, what is happening, she's not her self, and she won't last long, with all her wounds." Heero said as he tried to get to her, but then he saw that Makoto ran passed him and pined Usagi to the ground.

" It's time to die! Usagi!, you will pay for what you just did to me!" Makoto said as she took the knife at was trying to stab Usagi.

' USAGI!" Heero yelled out loud.

" Usagi tried to stop Makoto, but Makoto stabbed her, but only in the shoulder, then Heero heard Usagi's scream of pain. He ran to Stop Makoto but Makoto pushed him into the bushes.

" Makoto!" Usagi became full of anger, and he eyes glowed red, and she called on a mysterious power, that she never knew she had, and blasted it toward Makoto, and left Makoto with serious burns and she was covered in blood.

" Argh..I'll get you back!" Makoto yelled as she disappeared.

The bright blue light left Usagi, and she fell to the ground,

' Usagi!!" Heero yelled as he ran up to her, and held her in his arms.

" Usagi! Why did you do that! Your suck an Idiot!, you could have gotten your self killed!" Heero yelled as he looked at her with sad eyes.

' That's the first time you called me an idiot" Usagi said as she looked at him with warm eyes.

' But why did you do that!" Heero yelled at her still holding her.

" Because…" Usagi Hesitated a she was afraid what his reaction would be if she told him.

' Because what? Why?! Tell me Usagi!" Heero pleaded wanting to know why she risked her life for him.

' Because… Heero, I love you." Usagi said as she looked into his eyes.

Heero looked at her, he couldn't believe that she risked her life for him. Because she loved him. " Duo was right, she.. Did love me, she didn't love Wufei or Trowa, but me" Heero thought to him self as he continued to look into her blue eyes.

-Heero remembered what Duo said to him before.

" Heero it's not your fault. She was doing it to protect you"

" Yes it is, if I was more careful, this wouldn't have happened."

" No it isn't! We all know she… she loves you."

" No she doesn't, I can clearly see she loves Wufei, if not him Trowa."

" Well believe what you want to believe Heero!"

' We all know she… she loves you"

" We all know"

' She loves you"

" Loves you"

Usagi closed her eyes, because she couldn't look at Heero, he probably thinks she just nuts, crazy, now she wished she did die, and wished she didn't tell him her true feelings.

Usagi was about to walk off even thought she was hurt she didn't want to stay with Heero after what she said, she felt like a fool telling him that's she loved him.

But as she was about to move, she felt a warm touch, then she opened her eyes, and she that Heero was kissing her.

Heero then stopped the kiss, and looked into her eyes, and said.

" I will always protect, forever, because I Love you Usagi." Heero said in a sweet voice as he whispered it into her ear.

Before Usagi could say anything, Heero kissed her again, then she kissed him back, but as they kissed, Usagi and Heero's wounds healed, and they were surrounded by a the same blue light, that surrounded Usagi. Now they knew what it was. It was their love, for each other, that healed them, and gave them new power.

Relena saw this, and she ran off back to her home, she couldn't deal with the truth; she was hurt, because she too, also loved Heero. But the love between Heero and Usagi was unbreakable.
