Chapter Nine: You Look Kinda' Familiar....
*********************************
Quatre wondered past Wufei's room and noticed that the usually locked door was wide open. 'Duo...' he thought, peeking in. He nearly had a heart attack! The familiar black sheets were replaced with pink and white, with little hearts and stars. All of Wufei's under wear and clothes were dipped in chocolate and fire ants were picking at them. Duo had spray painted "Nataku Is Gay! Nataku Is Whack!...." and any other foul word the little braided boy could think of. In the center of it all was a picture of Nataku bound and gagged while Deathscythe pointed its sycthe at its neck. On the back read : "Never mess with the braid Justice Boy! Shinigami lives!!!" Quatre chuckled. Oh what Wufei was going to do to him when he got back.... Quatre went to go prepare the infimary.
Cosmos watched with slight amusment as Wufei picked at his food that Michiru had slaved over the stove for. She slid in, ignoring the look he was giving her, and took a huge bite of the mashed potatoes. "Mmmmm...mashed potatoes...They're good you know, Michiru's a great cook. Besides, if we wanted to kill you, we would have done it already." she said, taking another generous bite of potatoes. Wufei slapped her hand away from his food and growled. "That's my food onna! What do you want anyways?" Cosmos simply shook her head. "I'm just trying to be nice. I took the liberty of e-mailing your friends about your whereabouts." He glared at her. "Oh, you're welcome.What was that? Oh, you like my house? Thank you, it was gift from my friends." She watched with a grin as the chinese boy blew up. "I said nothing of the sort woman! Who are you people anyway?! Why do you seem to know everything about me?!" Haruka, Setsuna, Michiru, and Hotaru stood at the doorway, listening to him rant. *You know, he really does remind me of Vie. How did you know he would be at the base when Koneko would be?* Haruka asked through their unique link. *Because I sent him the e-mail.* That all looked to Setsuna with slight shock on their faces. *Figures.* Hotaru just shook her head.
Heero went to go check hime
e-mail for the fifth time that day. 1 New E-Mail. "Hn." He opened
it and quickly looked over it. It read:
Perfect Solider,
As you have probably have noticed, your comrad Wufei Chang has taken a
leave of absence from your residence. No worries. A few nights ago, he
was given a mission to infiltrate OZ Base 253, along with myself. No, I'm
not a gundum pilot, but I am trying to help with the effort. Unfortunalty,
he was shot in the stomache so I have him in my safe house to heal. You
can see him or take him for your own medical care at 1660 Azalia Dr. Come
whenever you want. Bring your comrades if you feel threatened in any way.
Cosmos
Heero quickly shut down the laptop and went in search of the others. They were on a serch and rescue mission now.

Ami or now Princess Athena
of Mercury sat with her former soldiers in front of her coffee table. Even
Mamoru sat with Luna, Artemis, and Diana. All of them had their birth marks
and true coloring in full view for Ami to examine. "So, we all agree that
Serenity must be back?" Makoto, Princess Hera of Jupiter, asked. "I don't
think we should jump to conclusions though. It could just be a coinsidence.
How many years has it been now? Maybe after a certain amount of time, we
revert." Minako, Princess Aphrodite of Venus, shook her head. Ami took
out her computer and made a few calculations. "It doesn't make any sense.
Why would we suddenly revert in...732 years. There's no scientific pattern.
"Oh shove science! We know better then to rely on science by now, Ami.
We need some real answers people." Rei, Princess Discordia of Mars, yelled.
Endymion repressed a sigh. She never could quite get out of the queen role.
"I tend to side with Makoto on this one. It makes sense. When Serenity
left, we reverted back into mortals. Now that she's back, so is our immortality."
Luna sighed. "If only..." she started. Artemis and Diana looked at her
inquizitively. "If only what Luna?" he asked. "If only it had never come
to that all those years ago. Look at all the damage we caused! Rei, your
great grand-daughter has started a horrible war on one side, while your
great grandson is on the other. The outers disappeared with Serenity and
ever since she disapeared, so did our peace! Time has gone hay wire and
so has our destiny! This is just like on the Moon Kingdom..." she shouted,
her fur bristling. All of them stared in shock at the tiny animal, and
once powerful human 2000 years ago, as she ranted. 'It's true though...ever
since that day, the world went to hell.' Minako thought, touching her birthmark
cautiously. 'We caused it." Makoto bit her fingernails. 'All that we did,
all that we belived in, disappeared with her.' Ami finished their thoughts.
Rei and Mamoru remained silent. Neither wanted to admit they were wrong.
"What do you mean it was the same on the Moon Kingdom?" he finally asked
the black cat next to him. Luna hung her head in shame. "When Artemis and
I showed you your past memories...they were...altered." she admitted. Gasps
were heard from all. "What do you mean..." Rei started, being cut off by
Luna. "I'll show you." A golden light flashed through the room.
*Flash Back*
Princess
Serenity ran as fast as her dress would permit her to try and lose the
senshi. It was almost noon and he would be expecting her soon behind the
royal gardens and in the private lagoon. "Serenity! Where are you always
sneaking off to?" Jupiter shouted behind her. A rouge twing snatched her
dress and tore a piece of silk from it. She kept running. "You can't
escape us Serenity." Mars sneered, picking up the material. Her heart pounded,
racing in her chest. Why must they always be so cruel to her? Last month,
her mother had given her a puppy for her birthday, and a few weeks later,
they had drowned it. They killed an innocent animal just to hurt her! 'Monsters',
she thought as she came closer to the gardens. If she could just make it
past the bushes... "Serenity, this is pointless! We'll find you sooner
or later." Venus yelled from a short distance. 'Must be faster!' she screamed
in her mind as she came closer and closer to the lagoon. "Ah!" she cried
as she tripped and landed in the dirt. "There she is!" Mercury pointed.
Footsteps came closer to her as she tried to get up. 'Keep away from me!'
she cried in her head as she stumbled to the lagoon. "Almost there.." she
whispered, tripping to the entrance. "Serenity, what's wrong?" a deep voice
asked, catching her as she fell. She looked up to her beloved Vie. A prince
from a distant solar system, he was visiting the kingdom to see her, under
the guise of diplomatic reasons. The senshi sneaked up behind them and
watched from a short distance. "It's not fair, Vie. They just keep after
me, hunting me!" she cried, seeking solace in his chest. The senshi gasped
when they saw who it was. A tall, distinguished man of chinese descent
in black and blue armor....Prince Vie II of Banuta. They slowly moved away
to not alert them that they were there. "I can't believe her! She has Prince
Endymion as a fiance and now she's rolling around with some alien prince!"
Mars shouted once they were at a fair distance. "Maybe now you can have
Endymion for yourself. I don't think he'll be too happy about this new
development." Venus smirked. Mars smiled with anticipation.
"Serenity! Come to my quarters NOW!" Queen Serenity shouted to her disobediant
daughter. Serenity sighed and dragged herself to her mothers' quarters.
No doubt that the senshi snitched on her and Vie. She opened the door and
quickly sat across from the older woman. "I have it on good authority that
you were seen with Prince Vie in a secret rendezvous. Don't you understand
that you are promised to Prince Endymion of Earth so that there may be
an allience between our two planets? Do you want our world to be torn apart
by war? We may be very magically advanced, but that is nothing in comparison
to the technological advacements of Earth. We would be destroyed. Why can't
you understand that?" she escalated. " I know! I know Mother. But can't
you see that we don't love each other? While I'm off with Prince Vie, he's
amuseing himself with Sailor Mars! Our betrothal is a lie! Why can't Sailor
Mars marry Endymion? There would still be an allience with Earth and our
kingdom, and now with Mars. All of us win!" Serenity shouted, her cheeks
red. "This is not a game Serenity. There are no winners, only losers. Queen
Terra of Earth does not approve of her son marrying a warrior, no matter
if she is a princess, just like I don't approve of my daughter marrying
a war fiend, even if he is a prince! No more discussions Serenity. You
and Vie, it ends now." she finished, signaling for Serenity to leave. She
looked at her mother with crystal tears in her eyes. "Why can't you understand?
I love Vie, not Endymion. You can't stop us from seeing each other!" she
screamed, quickly leaving before her mother could react.
Huge bolts of negative energy coarsed through the Moon, a sanctuary built
on peace and positivity. "Vei! Beyrl has just declared war here!" Serenity
screamed, running to her lover as a bolt crashed near her feet. "I know
Serenity. They're at war at home." hugged her fiercely. They ran quickly
down the royal pathway to the palace. "What are you doing with my
fiance?" Endymion asked, blocking their way. Pulling her away fom Vie,
he turned to walk away with her. Serenity turned to face him. 'I may be
your fiance, but I will never love you!" she screamed, punching
him in the face. More energy crackled. "Huh?!" they cried. "With all this
negative energy, we'll be destroyed! We must find my mother!" Serenity
shouted to him, rising over the winds. They ran into the palace to find
the powerful queen. "Serenity! Get out of here! Beryls' war has come! Go!"
she shouted, hugging her precious daughter for the last time. Vie grabbed
her hand and led her to the escape pods ment for the royal family. Just
before they reached them, a horrible woman in purple stopped them. "Oh,
princess, leaving so soon? Or, will he fight for you?" she asked in her
terrible voice. Vie quickly stepped in front of Serenity and swiped at
the snake with his katana. Beryl only laughed and sent him a life ending
ball of energy. "Nooooo!!!!!!!" Serenity cried, kneeling over her fallen
lover. "I don't care if I die in this life, Beryl, but mark my words, I
will kill you!" she screamed at the evil being. Without hesitation, she
took Vie's katana and sheathed it in her heart.
