"Nani yo?!" Everyone but Ami shouted.
Ami shook her head. "No, she's not."
"This is *not* what we need right now," Luna muttered. "USAGI!!!!!!"
"Of course she is," Rei replied.
"No, she turned on her locator just before she left. I have her on my computer."
"Where is she Ami-chan?" Minako asked.

The girls ate breakfast quickly and Ami led them to Usagi. She was about 10 minute walk from them.
"Usagi! Why did you do that?" Rei screamed at her friend.
"Rei-chan, shut up!" Usagi shouted. Everyone gasped and Usagi lowered her head. "Gomen..."
"It's all right, Usagi," Rei replied, "I'm the one who should apologize."
"Let's not worry about it, minna," Mianko said.
Suddenly, Ami's computer began beeping. "Minna, someone's coming this way... and they have guns!"
"You're computer can do that?" Minako asked. "How?"
"I'm not explaining it, just take cover!"
"Minako-chan, now's not the time!" Makoto dragged Ami into the biushes.
***********
Rei ducked as the bullets whizzed by her head. *What the hell is going on?* her mind screamed.
Minako ducked down beside her. "Rei-chan, what are we gonna do?" she whispered.
"Stay low for right now... and pray."
"Can you use one of your charms?"
Rei shrugged. "I guess so, hold on a minute." The Miko closed her eyes and concentrated. "Rin pyuo tou shi gin retsu zen... Shield of Protection!" (AN: Gomen, gomen! I have no idea what Rei's chant is! The first one to e-mail Usa the correct chant gets two pics of her!! ^_^)
A bullet whizzed by Minako's ear, then bounced away and flew back in the direction it came. Rei grinned. "Sugoi, ne?"
"Hai." Minako grinned back. "But what about minna?"
"They're fine, I concentrated on them as well. No matter where they're at, they're fine."
"That's a relief. Do you think it's safe for us to get up now?"
Rei listened for gunfire. "Hai, I think so."
"Come on, lets figure out where they are." Rei nodded and slowly stood up.

"Ami-chan, daijobu?" Makoto asked.
"Hai, you, Mako-chan?"
"Hai. I wonder why those guys shot at us."
"I don't know," Ami replied, looking down at her computer. "Shimatta!"
"I don't like the sounds of that," Makoto muttered. "What's wrong?"
"My computer, it must have taken a beating when I threw myself to the ground. I can't locate Mamoru-san anymore!"
"Iie."
"I'm afraid so..."

"Usagi-chan?" Luna nudged her.
"Luna? Daijobu?" Usagi asked, lifting herself up. "Itai!"
"Usagi! What's wrong?"
