"What!?" All three outer senshi said unison. "What I just said, Setsuna said I had to because we may need their help in the upcoming battle." Usagi said in a monotone. "Does this mean we have to look for Mamoru?" Hotaru asked. "Iie, I know where he is." Usagi's voice was it's same monotone but it held a tone of distinct disgust. Usagi didn't wait for any other questions she quickly left the café, mocha in hand, and being trailed by three girls running after her.
~*~*~*~*
When Usagi reached her dorm room she changed out of her clothes into a light pink, thin strapped, tank top and a pair of flare jeans and a pair of white Nike tennis shoes, she quickly tied her hair up into a bun, to keep it from going everywhere, and too keep it off her neck because it was hot. Once she had done the three outers arrived. "Where's Mamoru?" Michiru asked. "At a college campus, but I'm going to awaken the inner senshi first because their closer." Usagi said grabbing Luna who was in Hotaru's arms. "We'll need you to do that little trick you did for me in my past life." The black moon kitten nodded and the two went to Makoto's room, where she was sure the senshi would be.
After her first knock the door opened and Makoto smiled warmly at her. "You got a kitten!" She said scratching Luna's chin. "Yeah, but could I come in for a moment, I need to talk to you and the others, are they in here?" She asked peeking over Makoto's tall shoulder. "Hai, we're in here!" Yelled a bubbly Minako. Makoto moved out of the way and let Usagi into the room. Usagi sat down next to Rei and began to speak. "If all of you would turn your attention to my kitty." She said in fake giggly voice. All the girls turned toward the kitten and Luna did the memory trick she'd done on Usagi in her past life.
When Luna broke the connection Usagi broke the act and let her new self filter through, and she now had a strait line for a mouth and cold emotionless eyes, that the senshi didn't understand when they pulled out of their trances. "Serenity-hime, why are you so cold all of a sudden? You'd think you'd be happy to have us back." Makoto said softly looking into her eyes depths but seeing only the mask Usagi had put up. "I'm not the Tsukino Usagi you knew back in the twentieth century, I am a gundum pilot and all I was supposed to do was pilot gin and make sure OZ didn't have it's way, but now a new evil has orison and I was forced to resurface your memories. It is no longer like it was." She said in a monotone as she stood and walked toward the door, the moon kitten cradled in her arms. "I'll erase your memories after the fight is over if you like, because I have a new court and you are not really needed anymore, but if you like I can leave them intact." Usagi said before leaving the dorm room.
Haruka was waiting outside the door along with Michiru. "Do you want us to go with you when you reinstate Mamoru's memories? Does he even know you?" Michiru asked, her older sister protectiveness showing through. "Iie, I don't need help, he knows me." Usagi said before leaving.
Outside the door Usagi ran into Hiiro and the other pilots who had taken their sweet time to get back. "Nice outfit." Duo smirked, and received a glare from Usagi. "Don't mess with me Braided baka." Wufei smirked. "She's starting to grow on me." The pilots left but Hiiro dragged behind. Usagi who noticed this waited for him. "Who is Mamoru?" Usagi detected something odd in his monotone that no normal person would detect, could it be jealousy. "A past lover in two past lives." She answered before leaving him and walking to the university that he was at.
Usagi walked into the dorms with a slip of paper in hand, with a room number scribbled onto a piece of paper, barely eligible but Usagi knew what it read. She walked silently until she came to the room and knocked confidently. The door opened a few seconds later by the ebony prince himself. "Konnichiwa Mamoru-kun." She said in her fake happy voice. "Usako! I haven't seen you since I left, I'm sorry I haven't visited lately." He said. Although he didn't seem the least bit sorry or concerned. "It's alright, I came by because I needed to speak with you." She said hinting at letting her into the room. "Come on in, my roommate's gone because he had a late class." He moved from the doorway allowing her entry. Luna trailed unnoticed behind her and he shut the door.
As soon as Usagi was in the room Mamoru lowered his head toward hers and captured her lips in a kiss, a kiss she didn't return and pulled away from. "I meant what I said when we broke up a year ago, I'm not in love with you nor will I ever be, gomen." She said in her monotone. A flash if pain went through his handsome features. "I just thought since you came her that maybe you'd changed your-" Usagi cut him off, all traces of her fake persona crushed. "Iie, I do not feel that way for you. Luna, do what we came here for." She said looking down at the kitten. Luna looked up at the former lover of Princess Serenity and did her duty.
~*~*~*~*
Usagi walked back to the dorms, exhausted mentally from all that she'd been forced to do. She'd never told outer senshi she'd dated Mamoru for time nor did she intend too. She had dated him yes, but because she had been asked out and her fake Usagi would have said yes. But when she had dated him she felt nothing, not even a spark of love. So she dumped him, telling him she didn't really love him and thought the relationship should end, after that she'd never seen him.
Usagi lay down on her comforter wishing she could take her gun and shoot herself, but settled for taking out her violin and playing a piece of music Michiru had composed. She was surprised by the knock on the door, Hotaru was out with Haruka and Michiru was practicing her violin in her own room. Usagi continued to play and yelled that the door was open. She was surprised to see Ami peek her nose in timidly. "Usagi we-" She stopped when she noticed Usagi was playing the violin, and that she was staring at her. "I mean, me and the others wanted to know if we could still keep our memories and help with any fights and things, and we wanted to continue being part of your court wither you want us to or not." She said rather boldly, for she was almost never this blunt. "If you wish, but as for my court, I'm afraid that is impossible, the inner senshi are now my court because they were the first to awaken, but we'll be glad to have your help and cooperation." She said in her normal monotone. Ami nodded and began to leave. "And Ami, tell the others I'm sorry for lying to them about everything." She said still in her emotionless voice. The shy senshi of ice gulped from Usagi's intimidating presence and nodded, leaving her there, still playing the piece.
After it was finished Usagi started another composition she had learned from Michiru as well, the one Michiru had been playing the day she had seen Michiru playing the violin in the park, and bounced a lemon while twirling and playing flawlessly. She closed her eyes and she heard the sound of the door creaking open, she knew it was a male, but she didn't care which one it was, it had to be one of the pilots. She opened her eyes and saw the innocent face of Quatre. "Konbanwa Quatre-kun." She said continuing to play without error. "Y-You play to?" Asked. Usagi grunted meaning yes, but Quatre over awhile of knowing Trowa knew what it meant. "M-Maybe we should get together and do a duet sometime?" He said hopefully. "Hai, perhaps Michiru would join us, she's equal if not better then I am." She replied. Quatre nodded. "I'm sorry if I had interrupted." He said turning toward the door. Usagi didn't reply and he left without another word. Suddenly a thought struck her and she stopped playing and turned toward Luna, who was in awe at her charge. "Luna-chan, are you supposed to awaken my senshi powers?" Luna looked baffled for a moment. "Y-Yes, I almost forgot to give you your brooch." Usagi watched as Luna stood and took out a winged brooch, and four transformation sticks from her space pocket. "Me and Artemis will take these to the senshi, Artemis is likely to stay with the inners anyway he needs to re-train them again." Usagi took the brooch from its spot on the bed. "Tell them to meet the outers and the Gundum pilots at five AM in the park. They'll train them up better then Artemis will be able to." Usagi instructed. Luna nodded and took two sticks and Artemis himself took two and the two took off to Makoto's dorm.
When the two kittens left Usagi took the brooch and put it in her pocket, she's probably train with the outers in the evening when it came to transforming. She didn't want to hurt the pilots. 'Although it might toughen them up a bit more.' She though evilly before changing into her black pajama pants and a black, thin strapped, mid-rift tank top and flopping onto her bed and checking her mail, she hadn't received anything though so she settled down with a good book on mechanics, she was hoping to help Haruka when the fight was over with fixing up an old twentieth century car so they could drive around in it and show off well she wouldn't show off, but Haruka would most likely.
After awhile she grew tired of the book and sat it down, she knew a lot about mechanics already but she just wanted to make sure she knew what she was doing. But since she knew what she was doing she decided to walk around, pajama's or no, she felt like visiting Seiya.
Usagi grumbled, Seiya wasn't in her dorm room, so Usagi was wondering the dorm rooms for lack of a better idea. Usagi finally reached Duo's room and heard his laughter from inside and the sound of Wufei yelling at him. That probably meant they were all in there. Usagi hesitantly wondered is she should knock on the door and if she should run away before someone might open the door. Although she might be able to see if they had some alcohol to help calm her nerves from the day. Most guys in her dorm seemed to smuggled alcohol in all the time. Usagi shrugged and knocked, considering she had nothing better to do. Trowa answered the door and looked at her with a 'Please save me before I go insane' look. Usagi stepped in and Hiiro looked up from his lap top and Duo stopped abruptly from running away from Wufei who ran into them, causing them to fall with cursed from both pilots. Quatre looked undecided as to what to do with everything and just stood their. Finally Usagi broke the silence. "All I wanted was beer." Duo who had finally managed to get up looked at her oddly before laughing. "I don't find anything funny about this." Usagi said in a monotone. Duo stopped laughing. "A beer? I think I have one if Wu-man didn't steal it to piss me off." He said going over to the fridge while the Chinese boy growled and trembled in anger, mumbling something that sounded like, "Why must he always call me Wu-man, the bastard!" Usagi just waited patiently for her damn beer and hoping Wufei wouldn't interfere with her getting it, until finally Hiiro shut his laptop and grabbed Usagi and pulled her out the door. "Lets not wait to see what happens." He said in a monotone as a scream erupted from Duo in the room. "I think I have a beer in my room." He said, detaching his hand from Usagi's feeling as though the warmth in his body had left him completely when he had let go of it.
Hiiro and Usagi walked into his dorm and he went to the refrigerator and looked inside and grabbed a brown glass bottle and handed it to Usagi. "Arigato." She said beginning to leave. "How do you know Japanese?" The words left Hiiro's mouth before he could stop himself. "I was born and raised there in two lives." She answered for him leaving the room.
As soon as Usagi left the room she felt cold, as if being in his presence warmed her to the core. But she shook her head roughly. She wasn't about to get involved with him, he was the perfect soldier, and she was the other perfect soldier. It was not right to get involved with another like herself. A person just as cold as she was, was probably incapable of love at all anyway.
