Chapter 14 of The Other Soldier
Rated R
By Miaka Hime
ACK! This chapter isn't the best, I had the worst time writing it! I don't know why either! I must have deleted and revised so many parts that I can't even count them all! It was terrible! But I finally figured out the ending battle which I think is coming in the next chapter, so stay tuned! Lastly, please check out my new story, it's called Serenity and I really kind of like it ^.^ Also if you already are reading Serenity, I do not plan on updating it right away, not until this one is finished, I'm just working on too many projects at the moment and some of my stories are getting jumbled together in my head, which is a sign that I've been writing too many things at once ^.^;;
Disclaimer: I do not own Sailor Moon or Gundum Wing, wish I did though!

"Chaos? Are we supposed to know that enemy?" Duo asked, speaking the question that was on all the pilots minds. "Chaos is the last enemy we fought." Usagi said quickly before exiting the room. Michiru began to stand up and go after her, but Hiiro stopped her. "I'll go." He said in a monotone before following her.
"Chaos it the last enemy you fought? So does that mean something?" Quatre asked. "Hai, we all died fighting Chaos." Taiki said softly. "She's probably not happy about fighting chaos again I take it?" Duo said.
Seiya who was the only one really listening nodded.

Hiiro walked out the door and looked down the hall, and saw what made him want to run down the hall the other way. Rerina was talking with Usagi who looked extremely peeved. Hiiro walked in their direction and as he moved toward them he heard what Rerina was saying. "What gives you the right to be going into that room?!"
Hiiro stopped in front of the two. Rerina and Usagi turned to him. "Hiiro, thank goodness you're here! This girl was picking the lock to your room." She said huffily. "Really?" He said turning to Usagi who's scowl looked larger. "What did you use to pick the lock? I like to use a really thin piece of metal." Rerina looked pissed. "Hiiro! Don't you care that she was trying to break into your room?!" Hiiro looked at her expressionless. "No, she's only doing it because I haven't made her a key." Rerina turned red, most likely from anger and stalked away. "Who was that?" Usagi asked. "My stalker." Hiiro replied unlocking the door. Usagi resisted the urge to giggle and stepped into his room.
Hiiro closed the door behind them and then turned to face Usagi. "What's wrong?" He asked. It was two simple words but they brought tears to her eyes. "I don't want what happened to me to happen to you and the others, I know what it was like to be killed by chaos and it's not pleasant." Usagi wrapped her arms around herself to help with the sudden chill that went through her body, but it wasn't helping.
Hiiro wrapped his arms around Usagi. "It's alright, we face things like this every day." Usagi shook his arms off of her. "Iie! You've never faced Chaos, you don't know what it's like! It was It was like something cold all around you and you just can't get away from it, or warm up because it's a part of you." Hiiro wrapped his arms around Usagi again, and she buried her head in his shoulder. "Please tell everyone not to help us, you won't make it." She whispered.
Hiiro was silent for a moment, trying to find the words. "Iie, you need our help and all of us are used to facing death, no matter what kind it is. Even if we do die, we will not regret it because we were protecting something precious." Hiiro could have smiled at his whole two sentences but his face would probably crack so he settled for kissing the top of her head. (AN-Ack! I wrote that sap!?)
Usagi smiled and looked up at Hiiro. "Hii-kun, at least I can spend time with you now." Hiiro smiled for her, and only her and kissed her softly on her forehead. Usagi smiled and pulled away. "I better go, Michiru will be worried about me for leaving so abruptly." She said softly. Hiiro nodded and Usagi left the room to find her sister.

After a nice dinner at home with the outer senshi, Usagi and Hotaru went to bed, but unlike Hotaru, Usagi couldn't sleep. She contemplated leaving and sneaking into Hiiro's room, but decided against it. She'd been found missing already and she didn't want to have the others worrying about her. Even if a part of her really didn't give a rats ass. So she stared up at the ceiling knowing she needed some sleep. Instead she went to her laptop and opened it and checked her mail. She was surprised to see and e-mail from Setsuna. She quickly opened it and read it.
Gin,
Don't waist the time you have, I promise I'll wake you before Hotaru wakes, go to him.
Dr. M
Usagi was surprised, Setsuna didn't care? She wanted her to go sleep with him? She didn't hesitate this time, Usagi shut her laptop took a quick peek in the mirror and then creeped into Hiiro's room. She was careful to not make much noise as she peeked into his room. Hiiro was lying down staring at the ceiling. "I heard you coming." He said. Still staring. "I guessed you would." She said softly fiddling with her white tank top. Hiiro stopped staring at the ceiling, "You want something?" He asked.
Usagi smiled shyly. "Maybe." Hiiro nodded knowing what she wanted and she crawled into bed with him and wrapped her arms around him and closed her eyes. Hiiro knew instantly knew that she was asleep. She had looked adorable when she had crawled under the covers, like a kid excited about Christmas. Hiiro wrapped his arms around her small waist and fell into the most blissful sleep he hadn't had in years.
~*~*~*~*
Usagi awoke to a voice that she instantly realized was in her head. Wake up hime. Usagi untangled herself from the arms of Hiiro and got up. Her hair had fallen out sometime during the night, and now hung in silvery waves that dragged the floor. Better get to your room hime. The voice said again. Usagi turned and looked at Hiiro. Don't worry, he'll understand. Setsuna said. Usagi nodded and yawned once before leaving his room and walking back into her own.
Once she was in her room she changed into sweat pants, she had no intention of going to sleep again, even if it was four thirty. She also changed into a tank top and braided her hair expertly before wrapping it around her head and securing it in place. After doing so, Usagi went to the schools gym where a beaten down punching bag stood. Usagi began to ruthlessly attack the harmless object until it came crashing down. "Damn supports." She said, her energy not at all spent. "That was amusing." Came a voice. Usagi turned to see Luna. "I followed you when I woke up and saw you leaving." She said with a small kitty yawn showing off many sharp fanged teeth. "Usagi-chan? I had this odd dream about you turning into the ginzoushou whenever you felt like being alone, it was really weird Where is the ginzoushou?" Luna finally asked. Usagi thought for a moment. "I'm not sure, it's not in my sub-space pocket, my only guess it that Setsuna has it." Usagi said in her normal monotone. Luna nodded. "Perhaps you should call her and ask her where it is something's going to happen today. I don't know what but something is going to happen."
Usagi nodded, she'd felt it the moment she'd awoken from Setsuna's telepathic alarm. "Hai." Usagi reached out to Setsuna's mind until she felt her response. Setsuna, you're needed. As soon as this was said Sailor Pluto appeared. "Hime?" She asked. "Where's the ginzoushou?" She asked. "It it's what powers Gin I didn't tell you because you didn't have your memories, and I didn't think it would be important yet, but it seems time is flowing fast." Usagi nodded. "How do I get it out of Gin?" She asked. "Well that's the hard part, Gin IS the ginzoushou, you just have to remold it back into it's crystal form." Usagi looked baffled. "I've been riding around killing oz soldiers with the crystal?" Setsuna nodded. "I suppose you're confused but it's true, when you healed gin you didn't even have to. Gin would have regenerated itself, you just sped up the process. I would have told you, but you'd have been suspicious." Usagi nodded. "I would have been. I'd have asked questions you were forbidden to answer as well." Pluto nodded. "So how do I remold it?" Pluto cringed. "You can't very easily without using a lot of energy, so I'm not sure if you'll want too." Usagi stood firm. "How?" She asked coldly. "You just bond with Gin and ask it to remold itself, but it uses your energy, if it uses too much you'll be drained to the brink of death, you may not make it." Usagi shrugged. "I've got enough energy, I'll go do it now, you just cover for me." She said leaving the gym. Pluto sighed. "That girl will be the death of me."

Usagi stood face to face with Gin. "Sorry Gin, don't want to do this cause you look great in that form but your other forms the one I need." Usagi said melding with Gin, and then the molding began.
