Missing You is dedicated to my BEST Friend…Stephanie (Kyohaku). Disclaimer: I do NOT own Sailor Moon. Naoko does (Lucky her!)
For it was her that got me writing, and because she is always there for me! Thanx Steph.


Missing You-Part 8

"Your hair!" Haruka gasped as she touched Usagi black hair. "What did you do?"
"Different I know," Usagi spoke softly. "I had to dye it. It was the only way no one would recognize me."
"Why Usagi? Why did you leave us?" Michiru asked questioningly.
"I…I…I need to sit down!" Usagi cried.
"Ruka-chan, help her inside." Michiru directed, "Everyone else go sit inside, I will make some tea for everyone.

***FIVE MINUTES LATER***

Everyone was quietly sipping their tea when Michiru brought the question up again, "Usagi, please tell us. Why did you run away? Was it something we did?"
"Not all of you, just the Inner Sen…" Usagi started.
"Motoki," Haruka looked at the man sitting next to Usagi, "Maybe it would be best for you to leave."
"No Haruka-chan. It's all right. He knows about the Senshi and me being Sailor Moon. He has known straight from the beginning. He needs to hear what I have to say."
"Hai," Haruka said as she glared at Motoki, everyone in the group knew she did not like to talk about anything that had to do with the senshi in front of someone who was not one of them.
"As I was saying, it had nothing to do with you, the Outer Senshi. Just the Inners, Mercury, Mars, Jupiter, and Venus," Usagi told the group as she looked over to Minako when she said her ruling planet.
"What did they do to you, Princess?" asked Hotaru the youngest one in the room.
"They rejected me," Usagi started to cry as those days replayed in her head.

***FLASH BACK***

***RIVERWOOD PARK***

"What are we going to do?" yelled Mars
"We can't attack the Yoma." Jupiter yelled back, "If we hit her Mercury will end up just like Venus"
"I wish Venus were well enough to help us battle," Mars wailed. All of a sudden she saw a shadow behind the Yoma. "Do you see that shadow Jupiter?"
"Yeah, it's Sailor Moon," she replied. She motioned to Sailor Moon telling her to attack the Yoma from the back. That way the Yoma would protect Mercury from the blow of her attack and get Moon Dusted herself. Sailor Moon nodded in agreement.
"MOON…GORGEOUS…MEDITATION!" Sailor Moon yelled out. The Yoma turned around pulling Mercury with it. The Yoma's grip tightened around Mercury's neck as the burst of energy came towards them.
"AHHHHHHHHH!" Mercury screamed as the attack hit her.
Sailor Moon, not noticing that the attack had hit her friend cried out, "MOON DUSTED!"
"You'd think she would have learned after hurting her first friend." Mars sneered.
"This time I am not going to stick up for you!" yelled Jupiter, "and I highly doubt Mercury will."
Tuxedo Kamen jumped down from the ledge he was standing on. "Good going Sailor Moon!" Now we are short two scouts!"
"Yeah! Mercury was the most useful scout, because of her computer." Yelled Mars
"Could you please leave now?!" Jupiter yelled at Sailor Moon.
"Yeah we're afraid you might try to hurt one of us!" Mars yelled.
"Mamo-chan?" Sailor Moon looked at Tuxedo Kamen with pleading eyes. He turned his head and looked away, for he was afraid that if he looked her in the eyes he would give in.
"Leave," Mars said with an icy tone in her voice. Sailor Moon turned and ran back to her house in tears.

***END OF FLASHBACK***

"Don't cry, Usa-chan," Haruka tried to soothe her. She then turned and glared at Minako who was sitting quietly sipping her tea. "You call your self a leader! She is our princess! No matter how ditzy or clutzy she will always be our princess! Minako, I thought you were a worthy leader, but know I see you are not!" Haruka shouted at Minako getting angrier by the second.
"Please Haruka-chan!" Usagi pleaded with her, "Don't be mad at her. It's mostly my fault they rejected me! Please listen to me!" With those words everyone in the room went silent as Usagi told them the story from the beginning. She told everyone about the, battles, the accidents and the harsh words passed around. As soon as she finished telling her story the doorbell rang. "No more people please!" cried Usagi. "I am so exhausted," With those words Usagi fainted on the spot.
"I'll take her to her bedroom and lay her down in bed," Motoki told the group.
"And I'll go see who it is," Haruka said as she walked towards the door.
Just as Haruka was about to open the door Usagi whispered, "Please don't tell anyone that I am here."
"What?" Haruka asked her.
"Shhhh..." Motoki hushed her. "She fell asleep."
"I think she means she doesn't want us to tell Mamoru-chan and the other senshi she is here. Yesterday before I came to her house, she made me promise that I wouldn't tell them where she lived. So please it's the most I can do for her after what happened. If you see them don't tell them where she is." Minako pleaded with the group.
"Hai," the rest of the group said as Haruka opened the door.
"Ummmm…Hi," Mike was standing at the door in front of Haruka, "This isn't Bunny's apartment is it? I mean I thought it was. I thought this is where she lived for the past 6 years."
"Who are you? And who is Bunny?" Asked Haruka.
"I'm Mike and Bunny is my girlfriend," Mike explained.
"Ok, Good-bye," Haruka started to close the door.
"Wait!" cried Minako, "Open the door." Haruka did as she was told and then looked at Minako. "That's Mike!"
"Very good Minako. He just finished saying that!" Haruka explained to her.
"I know, but that's Mike!" Minako tried again running towards the door, "Mamoru's friend Mike!"
"Hey you're Minako aren't you?" asked Mike.
"Yeah, but you can't see Bunny…Err…Usagi…Whatever you want to call her, because she's sleeping!" Minako blurted out the words.
"Oh, well that's too bad. I brought some old friends of hers that I thought she might want to see," Mike told the blonde standing in front of him, "Hey you guys! Come here!" Mike called to his friends. Minako saw Mamoru and the others walk over to the door.
"Hey Mina-chan!" Mako greeted her.
"Why didn't you tell us you knew where Usagi lived!" demanded Rei.
"Ummmmm… We don't want any! Bye!" Minako yelped as she slammed the door in their faces. She then quickly locked it so they couldn't get in. Minako then noticed the others laughing at her, "what?"
"'We don't want any!' Was that the best thing you could think of to say to them," Motoki started to laugh even harder.
"Don't want any what, Minako-chan?" Hotaru questioned the blonde.
"Ummmm…ummmmm….I don't know, I just didn't know what else to say to them," Minako was blushing madly as everyone started to laugh harder. "Stop laughing at me!"
"Ummmm…you guys," the group looked up and noticed Usagi standing in front of them, "could you try to be a little quieter I'm trying to sleep."
"Sure Usagi-chan," Setsuna told her.
"And by the way…Who was that at the door?" Usagi asked.
"Ahhhh…No one, don't you worry about it Usagi-chan," Michiru said to her.
Usagi looked towards the door when she heard a set of keys jingling in the lock, "Mike's here!" she cried.
"But, how…" the group all had astounded looks on their faces.
"I gave him a key to my apartment, so he could come in whenever he wants to." The door slowly opened and Usagi ran towards it. When the door was fully opened she ran into the man standing in front of the doorway, "Mike!" she cried as she hugged the man.
~Wow! I had forgotten how good it felt to hold her in my arms~ The man thought to himself.
"Uhhhhh…Bunny…I'm over here," Usagi looked up and noticed that she wasn't in Mike's arms.
"MAMORU! What are you doing here!?" Usagi pulled away from Mamoru and looked around. She then noticed that the other Senshi were there.
"Usako!" Mamoru gasped.
"I am not your Usako any more Chiba, Mamoru! You…you…you Baka!" she cried.
"Usagi-chan!" The inner senshi cried.
"I do not love you any more! Nor do I need you! Any of you! I now love Mike!" Usagi felt the tears come to her eyes as the words she never meant flowed out of her mouth towards the inner senshi and Mamoru. "I hate you all! I just want you to…to…to stay out of my life!" Usagi tears turned in to muffled sobs as she covered her face with her petite hands.
"Usa-chan," Haruka tried to soothe her. "Please, stop your crying. You didn't mean any of it. C'mon tell them you didn't mean it. You need them Usa, they are your life, your soul, your best friends. Listen to what they have to say."
"They were my best friends. WERE!" Usagi was now bawling, "That was six years ago! I want them gone. No!" Usagi yelled in between gasps of air.
"Listen to them," Haruka tried once more.
"Please," Usagi looked up at Haruka with pleading eyes, "I want them gone, away from me."
"You heard her, as much as I don't want to do this, Mamoru, girls, go!" Haruka cried.
"But… Usako," Mamoru pleaded.
"Go!" Haruka said with assertiveness in her voice.
"Usa," Haruka looked at her with tears forming in her eyes, "why did u do it?"
"I…I…I don't need them anymore!" Usagi cried as the tears flowed down her cheeks.
"Don't say that," Michiru tried to dry the tears from Usagi's face.
"Ladies," Setsuna's voice interrupted the sob fest, "I think we should be going now. The princess just needs time to be alone."
"Hai." The three other girls coursed.
"If you need us, we're just next door," Haruka told her.
"Ok," Usagi said quietly.
"I think I should be going too," Motoki told her. "I will come and see how you are doing tomorrow, maybe we can go out for lunch?"
"Alright," Usagi looked up at him and smiled.
"I'll be here at 12, then. Ja!" Motoki called as he walked out of the door.
"Good-bye," The outer senshi said to Usagi.
"Mamo-chan…" Usagi sighed softly once they had all left, "How I've missed you so."
"Bunny! I'm home!" Usagi heard Chance cry as she walked into the apartment. "Hey, what do u say we go out for supper tonight? Huh? C'mon my treat!"
"Sure…" Bunny smiled at the thought of food.
"Go get changed and we can leave." Chance told her.
