She is Me

Chapter 10 ~ Together at Last

Written by Princess Lesse

As the bright light disappeared, Serena looked down at herself and noticed that she wasn't the same anymore. She now knew who she was, why she was who she was. And now, in her head, a new voice emerged.

'It is going to be us from now on. It will take time before we are fully together at last. But now, we are one in the same. But watch out for Quatre, he is right behind you.'

Along with so many other traits of La Conejita's, battle skills were something else Serena inherited. As well as her hate for Quatre, in some aspects. And her full-blown hate for Heero Yuy. Serena turned ever so slightly to see Quatre standing there, looking blankly at her. And at this Serena smiled a devilish smile.

"Q, what's the matter? Did something happen? Or are these bullet holes looking familiar to you?" Serena questioned while the bullet holes were disappearing before Quatre's very eyes.

Quatre gulped, not knowing who it was, and fired his gun again. But La Conejita, being familiar with what she knew was Quatre's insanity, took control for a brief second and jumped to the side, letting the bullet graze across her arm. When she looked up, Quatre was standing there, shock apparent on his face.

"You aren't Sere. She wouldn't have dodged, then I could have killed her, and I would have been with her forever. But now, YOU must die."

Serena, now getting used to having someone else entirely with her, was also honing up on her skills as Sailor Moon. She jumped in the air, and landed backwards. Quatre, not missing a beat, was advancing on her. She took off and ran, but not before she saw Quatre jumping over the fence and running after her.

"Oh shit!" was all Serena could mumble.

Still running at full speed, she felt another whiz of a bullet fly past her hair. She kept running, not looking back, knowing full well that if she did, it would be the death of her.

'Quatre's a good shot; I wonder why he is missing?'

'Because, he knows that it's me, too.'

And as Serena's quickly disappearing companion was thinking and contemplating all this, she felt the bullet pierce her back, and that was when she fell. As she tumbled, the pain hurt more now than it did before because the bullet was embedded in her spine. But in her mind, heart, and soul, Serena wasn't going to give up. She kept saying to herself over and over again, "I'm gonna save you, Q. I'm gonna be Sailor Moon for you, so that you won't have to be in agony any longer. Never again will I make that mistake."

As Quatre walked up to her, his gun poised and ready, he looked at Serena, his eyes flickering between blue and gold, tears streaming down both of his cheeks. Saddened by the guilt he felt, Serena uttered a few words before a gunshot was fired.

"I'm sorry, Q."

Wufei heard numerous gunshots and was afraid of what they might mean. They were ringing throughout the whole school, and by it all, he was scared for whoever might be the target of either Quatre or Heero. He jumped up, his katana in hand, and ran out. But as he was running down the hall, he bumped into Relena. Her eyes were frantic—she had heard the shots too. She grabbed Wufei by the collar of his shirt and yelled at him, "Where is Serena?"

Upon hearing that, Wufei's heart started to skip beats. What if it was Serena out there? What if she really was committing suicide, or even worse, what if someone was trying to kill her?

Wufei did a full turn and started to run down the hall, Relena hot on his heels. As they neared Heero's room, Wufei sliced the door open, not caring whether or not Relena saw, which she didn't. She was concerned for the safety of Serena and curious as to why Wufei would be running to Heero's room.

As they barged in, Wufei taking in his surroundings carefully, he noticed that Heero wasn't there. With that, Wufei went ballistic and ran back out into the hall, into the center of St. Gabriel's Institution.

Trowa was still upset as to why Serena would run away from him like that. He was certain that Wufei would know, but he didn't feel as if he should ask Wufei, as questions would most surely arise. He walked stealthily around the Institution, looking for whatever and whoever might be of service to him. But remembering what his previous actions were, he started to run towards the hospital where Duo was located, hoping and praying that he was all right.

When he neared the hospital, he walked to the front desk and looked at the patient book. When the nurse saw what he was doing he walked off, having already attained his information. Taking the elevator to the fifth floor and walking down the corridors to Duo's room, he stopped as he saw his reflection in one of the windows. And what he saw astounded him.

What he saw before him was a person, and not a machine, due to the fact that he was caring about something, or better yet, someone. He let a small smile grace his lips as he continued down the hall and into Duo's room. The sight that greeted him didn't surprise him.

Heero fired his gun, his aim true. He watched as he saw a comrade fall from a bullet that he had let loose. He ran up to the form on the ground, which had blood flowing around her. He looked at Quatre, who was momentarily stunned because Heero had shot him in the shoulder. Quatre passed out, due to what may have been emotional or physical pain.

Heero looked down at the blonde, who was currently looking at Heero with hate in her eyes. Only one thought struck Heero's mind at the time.

'She must have gotten my letter.'

Heero bent down and picked her up, carrying her as gently as he could, when he actually noticed how different her frame was. He could have sworn it was Usagi had it not been for the eyes and the hair. Yet, her blonde hair had streaks of sparkling white, and her sapphire blue eyes had silver specks in them. Heero wouldn't have to worry about her, because she was immobile, and might even be paralyzed for the rest of her life.

His eyes, not taking on a hint of sympathy, looked down at her. He noticed that her face was now ghostly white, and her hair seemed dull. Her eyes were closed, and she was taking shallow breaths through slightly parted and parched lips.

Heero, letting instincts kick in, ran to the hospital as fast as he could, hoping and praying to the gods that he would get there in time. But what he didn't expect was an obstacle, which was a bullet in his leg.

Wufei was in the courtyard, looking for Serena. He knew that it was her. He had a feeling, and he wasn't going to ignore it. At all costs, he would find her, and make whoever hurt her pay. He kept running and running, not hearing Relena's footsteps behind him. Nor did he notice all the people who stopped to look at the ongoing scenes. That was when Wufei saw the blood beneath him and actually saw the shot ring out from Quatre's gun to Heero's leg.

Wufei kicked it full speed towards Quatre, who was about to fire another shot until Wufei kicked him. Quatre fell backwards, the pain in his shoulder preventing him from rising. Cursing Heero for being such a good shot, Quatre stood, and was about to shoot Wufei when Wufei sliced the gun. His katana, slowing descending from the air, was leveled towards Quatre, who hung his head in defeat.

Wufei, poised and ready, not caring whether or not if he killed Quatre for all that he did to Serena, was walking slowly towards him. One word rang through Wufei's mind, and that was all he was saw and felt at this moment.

'Traitor.'

But when Quatre looked up, Wufei saw the gold in his eyes. And that was what made Quatre disappear into thin air. Someone knowing about the demon possessing him, and Wufei being the one to find out. As Wufei spun around quickly, he felt a dark force trying to consume him, but as he was strong both physically and mentally, the force vanished, only to go find Quatre.

Wufei shook his head and bowed, muttering only a few choice words, "Quatre has been consumed by evil. May Nataku save his soul."

Wufei got up from his position and ran to where Relena and most of the student body were. Shoving various people aside, he picked up Serena from Heero's arms, and Relena called an ambulance on her cell. Her frantic voice not being reckoned with, she hastily yelled who she was.

"I AM THE DAMN QUEEN OF EARTH AND CINQ KINGDOM! GET YOUR LAZY ASSES OVER HERE!"

This was when most of the students backed off, and Wufei smirked. He started to carry the partially limp blonde to the main office, trying to get her there in time. While he was going, Heero was calmly limping after him, not letting a flicker of pain cross his face. When Wufei reached his destination, the ambulance was there and the medics ran out, trying to take Serena from Wufei.

"There is no way in hell you are going to take her without me going," was all that Wufei said.

The medics nodded and led the way for Wufei to put her on the cot. Some of the medics ran to Heero, noticing his bleeding leg, and he merely pointed to Relena, who was on the verge of hysteria. The medics quickly grabbed Relena and took her towards the front of the vehicle while giving her a sedative shot. They let Heero and Relena sit up front, while two of the medics and Wufei rode in back.

At the hospital, orderlies were rushing a gurney down the hall, still trying to keep the injured blonde alive. Relena was being pushed in a wheelchair to the observation room, and Wufei and Heero were in the waiting room. Wufei had his arms crossed, still pissed at Heero. And, as you may very well know, Heero doesn't admit when he is wrong.

When the doctor finally came into the waiting room, his face looked terribly in shock. For this Wufei was deathly afraid and about to unsheathe his katana when Heero put his hand on the sword, keeping Wufei from pulling it out. The doctor looked at them and started to speak about what the problem really was.

"I must inform you about Serena."

Wufei, unable to take it much longer, yelled and jumped on the unsuspecting doctor. The doctor, clinging to his clipboard, tried to cover his face and keep the raging oriental boy at bay.

"YOU PRICK! YOU BETTER SAVE HER, OR I SWEAR ON NATAKU THAT I WILL PERSONALLY SLICE YOUR ASS!"

The doctor, cowering beneath the youth, tried to escape from him when he finally felt the burden and death threat being lifted. He eyed the boys warily, especially Heero, silently pleading for him to keep a strong hold on Wufei, who already had his katana out and was slicing the air. Heero nodded for him to continue while keeping a firm grasp on the raging Chinese.

"Uh…as I was saying, it is extraordinary that Miss Tsukino is currently being healed at this very moment. Her wound is already gone, and we are giving her a blood transfusion right now. She won't be paralyzed, nor will she have to stay in the hospital for more than a day. I must say, this is a medical breakthrough. I was also coming to tell you that you are now allowed to see her, but you, uh, can't bring any weapons in the hospital room, as we are certain that she almost died from a gunshot wound, and we can't take any chances," the poor doctor said nervously.

Heero and Wufei looked at the doctor as if he were crazy, and the doctor pointed them to the receptionist, who would take their cargo. She would even put it in a safe for them. Wufei and Heero shrugged their shoulders as they started to empty their pockets and whatnot.

The nurse, looking wide-eyed at all the weaponry on her desk, was cautiously touching each one to put in the safe where they kept all the patients' jewelry. Wufei, glaring at the doctor, sheathed his katana and kept it with him. Heero, needing at least one gun on him, kept it in his jeans. (::grins::) The doctor led the way, watching the youths out of the corner of his eye. When they reached the room, he gestured for them to enter and Wufei walked in to see a lively Serena with a bag and needle attached to her wrist.

Heero, standing at the door, not forgetting the look of hate that crossed her face, stayed back and watched as Wufei stood by the bed.

Serena quietly opened her eyes and looked at the black glistening ones that were Wufei's. She smiled at him and croakily said, "We are together at last."
