~Chapter 12~
The party went on as couples danced happily. But no one knew of the real purpose for the
party......
Two men stood on a balcony overlooking the dance floor. One, with black hair and eyes, the
other with white hair and red eyes, each dressed in fine tuxedos.
"So you're sure that you remember the plan?" Danburite asked.
Alexandrite nodded. "Yes, Lord Danburite. I know it all, every detail."
"Good," came the reply, "Let's get going then."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Oh, Heero. Isn't this lovely?" Relena asked as she lead Heero dancing, because he refused to.
"Hn.." was the only answer that she received.
Relena sighed in aggravation, but she didn't give up. Nope, she would never give up her
dream.....Her eyes sparkled with determination.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Quatre held Minako in his arms as they danced to the beautiful waltz. Again, people stopped
and watched their graceful steps, but they took no notice. For some reason, every time they
danced, they felt as if they needed to stay together, dancing forever. They longed for the dance
to last for eternity.
Minako closed her eyes and tilted her head to the side. She felt so peaceful in his arms, as if it
were meant to be. While she danced, she could forget all of her troubles, all of her worries. She
felt as if she were floating on air.
Quatre moved his arms around Minako's waist and held her closer, resting his cheek against hers.
He felt so relaxed with her. When he was with her, he felt happy. Really, truly happy. He
wanted to hold her forever.
The couple danced, noticing no one but their partner, until someone bumping into them brought
them out of their trance.
"Oh! I'm terribly sorry!" came a man's voice.
Quatre and Minako looked over to the man who bumped them. Quatre recognized him
immediately. "Oh, gomen, Mr. Rite! I wasn't paying attention to where I was going."
Alexander smirked, glancing over to Minako. "I can see why.." he said quietly, but loud enough
for Minako to hear as she blushed.
"Well, Mr. Winner," he continued as Danburite walked up next to him. "Please allow me to
introduce you to my good friend, Ace Saijo."
"Good evening, Mr. Winner." Ace said, then turning to Minako. "And may I ask who this young
woman is?"
Minako wasn't sure about this man. There was just something about him...."My name is Minako.
It's a pleasure to meet you." she said reluctantly, yet politely.
Ace took her hand into his and gently pressed his lips to it. "The pleasure is all mine..." he
smiled.
Minako hastily withdrew her hand from his grasp, but noticed that he held on a bit. She didn't
like him, she didn't know why.
Quatre sensed this, and pulled Minako closer to him. "So how is everything going with your new
picture, Mr. Rite?" he asked.
"Things are going wonderfully!" Alexander replied, "In fact, we just re-wrote the end of the
script and I was wondering if you'd be willing to take a look at it. To give me your opinion." he
finished, glancing at Ace who nodded just slightly.
"Well, uh..sure. I suppose, but I'm no expert..." Quatre stuttered.
"Wonderful! It's in the other room! Let's go take a look!"
"Uhh..."
"Oh, don't worry! Mr. Saijo will keep Minako company. Besides, we won't be long!" Alexander
said while pulling Quatre away.
Minako started towards them when Ace gently grabbed her arm. "Miss Aino, would you care to
dance?"
"Um.." she thought, wishing that she hadn't been separated from Quatre. Then a thought struck
her. "What did you call me? Aino? That's not my name?"
Ace swore under his breath as he turned Minako to face him. "Oh! Pardon me, my dear. I just
figured that I'd give you a nickname. Aino...of love...."
"Strange.." Minako said quietly as she watched the desperate look in his eyes. "Gomen, Mr.
Saijo. I didn't intend to say that out loud."
Ace chuckled as he placed one hand around her waste and took her hand into other. "Oh, don't
worry my dear. And onegai, call me Ace."
"A-All right..." Minako agreed, very uncomfortable with her position as Ace led her in dance.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Alexander opened a tall door off the side of the room. "After you, Mr. Winner." he gestured.
Quatre reluctantly entered, wondering how he even got there in the first place. He looked
around and saw nothing. The room was bare. "Uh, Mr. Rite..." he said, turning around only to
see Alexander locking the door.
"What's going on? Quatre asked confused.
"Let's just make this quick..." Alexander said, pulling out a gun and pointing it at Quatre.
"What the--"
"Sorry, boy. Nothing against you personally, this is just my job." Alexander cut him off.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Relena sighed as she rested her head on Heero's shoulder. He, however, didn't care. His
attention was focused on the door that he just saw Quatre walk into. He didn't trust that other
man, not that he trusted anyone else anyway.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Tall white doors opened as the three remaining inner senshi entered Neo-Queen Selenity's throne
room. "You called, Selenity-hime?" Ami asked the queen who was standing next to Sailor Pluto.
Selenity nodded. "The enemy is after Quatre again, and Minako doesn't have enough power to
fight. We have to go there to help her out."
"Is that even possible?" Rei asked, confused.
Pluto nodded. "I can send you all there for a very short amount of time, so you will have to be
quick."
"What do we have to do?" Makoto questioned the senshi of time.
Pluto opened her hand, revealing four small stones. "These stones are from Venus, the planet
that gives Minako her power. Each of you must place one in the corner of the room so that when
the time comes, she will draw on their power to defeat the enemy."
"Can't we just help her fight?" Rei asked, just itching to whoop the people that hurt her friend.
Pluto shook her head. "I'm afraid not. Their world is not built to withstand that high amount of
power. It can, however, make do with just Minako's."
"Oh, all right." Rei said, disappointed, but understanding of her duty. "How long do we have
then?"
"Three minutes." came her answer.
"All right," Ami said, "Makoto, you're the fastest out of us without Minako here. Why don't you
take the remaining two stones?"
"Iie." Selenity interrupted as the other inners moved their attention to her. "I will be going too."
"But, Selenity-hime! You can't!" Rei shouted, immediately protecting her queen.
"Daijoubu desu." Selenity replied, holding her hand up in front of her, "I'll be fine. Our main
focus right now is to distribute the stones and get out of there." She touched the crescent moon
on her forehead as her wings and crown vanished, leaving her to look like a normal woman.
Pluto walked around the room and handed each girl a stone. "Now," she started, "you only have
three minutes, so be very quick." She saw the hope in each girls' eyes and knew that she must
give one more rule. "And, under no circumstances may you make any kind of contact with
Minako." She watched the hope disappear. "Her mind is still very fragile. Seeing one of you
may overload it."
"I understand." Selenity said, trying not to sound too disappointed. "So let's go then. The time is
near."
The four girls joined hands in a circle as Sailor Pluto raised her staff high above her head.
"Mercury Power!"
"Mars Power!"
"Jupiter Power!"
"Moon Power!"
"Pluto Power!"
Their powers combined, Pluto's staff began to glow. Within a few seconds, the spot where the
three princesses and queen stood was empty. "Good luck...." Pluto whispered.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Trowa stood silent, watching the party. He had no desire to dance with anyone, even though
Duo tried very hard to set him up with some of the girls there. He just wanted to observe. His
silence was interrupted by someone bumping right into him. The unfortunate figure fell to the
floor, dropping something out of her hand.
"Kuso.." she swore under her breath, looking around for the stone, then looking up to see a hand
held out to her. "Gomen!" she cried as she accepted his hand.
"Are you all right?" Trowa asked, helping her up.
"Arigato, I am fine. Gomen for bumping into you! I wasn't watching where I was going." Ami
rushed while she searched the floor for the stone.
"Are you looking for this?" Trowa asked, picking up a small sandy colored pebble off of the
floor and handing it to the girl.
"Yes! Domo arigato! I must leave now!" she shouted, running to the end of the room. 'Do I
know him?' she thought as she ran.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Wufei sat in a chair, his arms crossed. "Why did I agree to go to this stupid party...?" he
wondered aloud.
*Click click click click click click CRUNCH*
"Ouch!!" Wufei screamed as something pointy crunched his foot. He looked up and saw a young
woman with raven black hair. He looked down and noticed her very high heels. "Watch where
you step, onna!!" he shouted.
"Watch where you put that thing!" Rei yelled back, pointing to his foot.
Wufei growled, but Rei took no notice. Without another word, she took off running again.
"Weak woman....weak shoes...." Wufei muttered as he rubbed his foot. He paused for a moment
and stared at the running girl. Something was familiar about her....He shook his head and
continued to soothe his foot.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Duo walked around the room, happily humming a tune. He was on a mission. "Operation: Find
a cute girl and win her over with my good looks and charm" He grinned at the thought.
He glanced around the room, searching for a girl, when one in particular caught his attention.
She was beautiful! And she was running right towards him! He couldn't believe his luck!
Just as she was within reach, Duo stepped right in front of her, slowing her down. "Hey,
gorgeous! Where are you going in such a hurry?"
Makoto smiled. 'He's so kawaii..' she thought. "Sorry!" she shouted as she ran by him, "I'm in a
rush!"
Duo blinked. "Aaawwwww maaaannn!" he whined.
'Do I know him from somewhere?' Makoto wondered to herself as she ran.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Selenity made her way through the crowd of dancing people. It took her quite a while, but she
still had time. When she was almost out, she noticed that she only had one more couple to pass.
She sighed with relief and turned her head briefly for a reason that was unknown to her. There,
she spotted Minako. She stared at her for a moment, glad to see her again. Oh, how she longed
to see her, to hug her and tell her that everything will be all right now.
As Selenity watched Minako, she didn't notice the man that was staring at HER. When she
turned and continued to her assigned corner, the man grabbed her roughly by the arm.
"Who are you?!" he demanded, tightening his grip.
Selenity tried hard not to panic. She was running out of time and now this weirdo was yelling at
her.
"Why were you looking at Minako?" he asked.
"Heero.." Relena whined, "Just leave her alone! What harm has she done?"
Heero looked from Relena to Selenity then repeated the process several times. There was
something about having them both together like that. His head started to hurt, so he let Selenity
go. "I'll be watching you.." he said.
Selenity nodded, not hearing what he said. She couldn't escape his gaze. His Prussian blue eyes
burned into hers like nothing she'd ever felt before.
"Ahem.." Relena broke the silence.
"Oh! Gomen!" Selenity shouted as she began to run.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Quatre stood frozen as he watched the gun that was aimed at him. He had to think fast. He
couldn't get his gun, he'd be dead before he reached it, so he did the next best thing that he could.
He lunged for Alexander, knocking the gun out of his hand, then reaching into his pocket,
producing his own gun. Before he knew it though, a fist met with his middle with a powerful
force. He clutched his stomach and doubled over in pain.
Alexander laughed as he stood over Quatre. "Pathetic.." he said, kicking him in the side. "No
one will hear you, I've sound-proofed this room! Give it up!"
Quatre groaned in pain, doing the only thing that he could think to do. He aimed his gun at the
door....
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Minako froze in place. Something wasn't right, she could feel it inside her.
Ace noticed the worried look on her face. "What's wrong, dear?" he asked, pretending to be
concerned, "Why have you stopped dancing?"
"Gomen, Mr. Sai--I mean Ace. I just...something...please excuse me.." she said, trying to break
free of his grip, but he wouldn't let go.
"Ace! Let me go!" she shouted as she tried to get away. She continued to struggle just as a
gunshot was heard on the other side of the room. She looked over to the room where Quatre was
and saw a small hole in the door.
"QUATRE!" she shouted, however no one heard her as everyone in the room began to panic,
running around trying to get out.
"He's fine!" Ace yelled, angrily, trying to keep Minako from discovering what was really
happening.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"It's time for us to go.." Selenity told the other senshi, acknowledging the gunshot. They all
nodded.
"Good luck, Minako-chan.." Rei said quietly as they four of them disappeared in a flash of light.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Minako froze in place. Something wasn't right, she could feel it inside her.
Ace noticed the worried look on her face. "What's wrong, dear?" he asked, pretending to be
concerned, "Why have you stopped dancing?"
"Gomen, Mr. Sai--I mean Ace. I just...something...please excuse me.." she said, trying to break
free of his grip, but he wouldn't let go.
"Ace! Let me go!" she shouted as she tried to get away. She continued to struggle just as a
gunshot was heard on the other side of the room. She looked over to the room where Quatre was
and saw a small hole in the door.
"QUATRE!" she shouted, however no one heard her as everyone in the room began to panic,
running around trying to get out.
"He's fine!" Ace yelled, angrily, trying to keep Minako from discovering what was really
happening.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"It's time for us to go.." Selenity told the other senshi, acknowledging the gunshot. They all
nodded.
"Good luck, Minako-chan.." Rei said quietly as they four of them disappeared in a flash of light.
