THIS IS AN INCOMPLETE CHAPTER. MORE TO COME.
~~~~~How it Happened: Part One~~~~~
THIS CHAPTER HAS BEEN FIXED. ALL PARTS HERE
A.N.: I'm sorry my chapters have been so short! I wrote the first three chapters in less than an hour total, but I'm gunna spend the ENTIRE four day weekend working on this single chapter! I promise it'll be longer then the others! AND it'll be just about how Usagi and Vegeta got together (I wouldn't be doing this yet if it hadn't been for Sailor_Aphrodite, thankies Aphrodite! Oh yeah, you asked me what would happen to the Sailor Senshi so that's in here too!). But first off . . . A little age tweaking. This chapter wouldn't quite work if I didn't do some tweaking.
Present Vegeta~30
Present Usagi~ 20
Past Vegeta~17 (yes I know he should be with Freeza then but not in this!)
Past Serenity~15
Oh yeah, me no own, you no sue. Get it, got it, good.

{A.N. authoress made a boo-boo... the time is before the Cell Saga. West Capital didn't get renamed until after that. Oops?}

Nappa looked at the Senshi in front of him, slowly undressing them with his eyes, oblivious to what was going on with Vegeta.

"These are the only warriors Earth has to offer?" he boomed, "Pathetic!"

Vegeta looked at the older Saiya-jin in annoyance. "Shut up, Nappa. You don't even know who these people are. Let me just tell you that you're not even worth their time." Vegeta looked like he wanted to do something more than just put Nappa in his place. In truth, he just wanted to run away with his tenshi of the moon. Where he would run, he wasn't quite sure. His mind wouldn't let him think of anything more then his beloved Usagi.

Vegeta had loved her with such soul shaking passion when she had been sent on a somewhat diplomatic mission. It had been love at first sight, but he couldn't let anyone know that. He kept up the charade of a spoiled brat. {A.N.: O.O Vegeta calling himself a brat! Vegeta:*snarls at the authoress for making his royal highness (high ASS more likely!) Do such a thing*} Vegeta had decided to act like his father in chibi form, an arrogant ass. But even from acting arrogant, this moon goddess had fallen in love with him, too. 'A fallen star among the dust of a desert wasteland.' he had thought when he had tried to compare her to anyone else he had seen. She truly was his mùirn breatha dán - his soul mate. Without Usagi, as he had come to call her, he felt empty in a way that was completely foreign.

The past thirteen years without her had been a living hell. Every night before he fell asleep, he saw her face, and every morning when he woke up, Usagi was his first thought. Vegeta had tried to persuade himself that she was dead, and he would never see her again, except at least in his mind. He would never even get to see the child he knew had been conceived on the night of her departure. He felt ashamed at how they would have felt if they had known the horrors his missions had forced him to commit. He blamed himself, and that bitch Beryl, for what had happened to his beloved Usa-chan. If not for her, Usagi would have stayed on Vegeta-sei for a while more. At least enough to know that she was with child. If she had known that, she would have stayed, he had hoped.

Vegeta didn't know how Usa-chan got to Earth, but she was certainly younger then she was supposed to be. The Usa he had known would be about 28 now. This Usagi looked barely 20 then she should be age of thirty. That thought crossed from his mind to his lips. "How?" he asked quietly. "You're supposed to be dead, Usa-chan."

Sailor Moon smiled at the nickname. "Dead and gone, huh. You underestimated Mother."

Vegeta looked confused for a moment till he realized she was talking about Queen Serenity, the woman who wouldn't allow even those who deserved it to be destroyed.

"You're right. I did underestimate her highness."

The Senshi and Nappa blinked at this statement. Nappa because Vegeta had just called someone royalty, and the Senshi because Vegeta knew who Queen Serenity was.

Sailors Uranus and Neptune stepped forward. They, Pluto, and Saturn, were the only scouts who were still friends with Usagi. The rest had forsaken her, but still fought with her because she was much more powerful then they could ever be. The Inners knew and accepted this but never let Usagi know of it. If she knew, they believed that she would stop fighting with those who hated her. They were wrong, but didn't know it.

Uranus looked the smirking Vegeta up and down. "What do you know about Sailor Moon's mother?"

Vegeta's smirk grew. "Why call her Sailor Moon when she is still your Princess Serenity? She will always be your Princess unless SHE forsakes YOU, or until she becomes queen." Vegeta had been looking over the Inners when he had said the part about forsaking. He looked at them like he knew their deception, which he probably did.

Uranus gritted her teeth. "I repeat, what do you know about SERENITY'S mother?" she asked emphasing her name.

"More then you would think," came the cool reply. "Much more then even you probably know about your princess," the Saiya-jin added after a pause.

Tuxedo Kamen looked at the shorter man, "Oh, and I daresay that you think you know more about my future wife then I know myself!"

Vegeta glanced at Usagi, and then opened his mouth to retort, but someone beat him to it. . .

"You dare talk to a prince like a commoner?" Nappa bellowed in rage.

"Prince? Yeah right, I'll show you a prince!" T.K. replied. {A.N. So I didn't want to write the name out. So sue me! ::pauses:: err... no, don't sue, cause you won't get anything besides lint and HUGE lawyer bills! If you don't like how I treat T.K just flame me at ladyakasha@hotmail.com (-_-; what I do for e-mail... JK)} He reached inside his mind, feeling for the Golden Crystal. With a flash, T.K. changed into Prince Endymon {A.N. sp???}

Vegeta blinked and then started laughing. "So the play-prince is still around! I should have guessed that the 'Mighty Endymon' would fight under a mask. And in a suite no less!"

Prince Endymon looked surprised for a moment, but then realization dawned on him. "V-V-Vegeta! No, you're not here! You're supposed to be dead! Freez-" he stopped knowing he had said to much.

The Inners all glared at Prince Endymon. They knew what he was going to say, and they weren't too happy that he let the secret slip. They had been the ones who had given Freeza the idea to get rid of the Saiya-jins before they got to powerful. They had been the ones that feed him those white lies, as they had seemed, fore they had not known that one of the Saiya-jin actually WOULD beat Freeza.

Usagi caught this slip up of Endymon's, and nearly collapsed with the shock. "Y-y-you? Why Endymon? Why would you condemn nearly an entire race to destruction? Your not who I thought I knew." Stumbling, Usagi detransformed as she moved away from the ones who had sunk so low as to commit an entire species to death just because they hadn't cared.

Vegeta looked after his distraught goddess. 'No,' he thought, 'she has had too much pain in her life for me to let this go. The play-prince will pay for what he has done to my Usa-chan.' The Saiya-jin no Ouji's glare returned once more to his target.

"Pain. Pain and destruction is the only things you have brought to the Lunarian no Hima. That is the same as treason. You, play-prince, don't deserve this life you have been given." As the words poured forth, Vegeta's eyes flashed aquamarine for a split second, before returning to the dark pools that shone like obsidian. 'No, not here. His penance will come later. Later after he knows that death will become his only destiny. The others, I hold no grudge against, but they were part of the play-prince's plan. For that, they to will feel the bite of death.'

Vegeta looked over his shoulder. "Nappa! Dispose of these. . . These annoyances. They are now your concern." Turning to go, Vegeta paused, "Don't kill the play-prince, though. Him I will take car of later." Without waiting for a reply, he floated up to find his Usa-chan.


~Desert~
Almost everyone is here now. They only ones that still had to show up were the Saiya-jin, and Goku. {A.N. wouldn't he be included in 'The Saiya-jin' too? O.o? We authors work in such odd ways, that we don't even know what's gunna happen next! Err... I'll quit rambling now...} Patience was beginning to run low, when were they gunna get here???


~High above Satan City~
Vegeta was beginning to become irritated, he couldn't even feel his goddess anywhere! One would think that after even thirteen years, Vegeta would know where to find Usagi. Well, he would have, if they had been on Vegeta-sei. There he knew where she would be for sure, the Gardens. She had used to say that they felt like home when moonlight would reflect off the central pool. That and the caves had been Usa-Chan's favorite places to go. 'Maybe there was places around that looked like that? I won't know unless I look.' Sighing, Vegeta picked a random place to land and begin his search.

~A Park, somewhere downtown~
Usagi was lost. She knew it was true even if she didn't want to say it, there was no denying it. Usagi could get through catacombs faster then she could find her way to the only place she could feel safe right now, the Outter's mansion.

When the Saiya-jin had landed, Usa had had a single memory float through her mind: the first time she had heard his name. But that was it. No clues as to how he had effected her, or to why she longed to be held in his arms. He was. . . Unusual. Yes, that was the word that fit. Never before, in her past life or this one, had the Lunarian no Hima felt the need to be held as much as she had at that moment he had locked eyes with her. His gaze had been one of love and longing. Not the type that was temporal longing, but his very soul had seemed to yearn to be closer. Not just to be closer, but to reawake something she was sure they had had.

Now Usagi's only thought was to find her way to the Outter's mansion, and talk to Setsuna. Usa was sure Setsuna could be able to help.

*No, Hima.* came the very voice of the one she sought. *this is something you have to remember on your own. Vegeta will be heartbroken if you don't remember, so pray, little one, pray that you remember your lost path.* Setsuna's voice faded out of the farthest recesses of Usagi's mind.

'Fine, if the only way I can learn is on my own, then let it be.' Sitting down on a nearby bench {A.N. she's at a park remember?}, Usagi focused on trying to unlock what she knew lay deep inside of her.

Slowly, Usagi fell asleep on that bench, unconsciously awaiting her prince.

~In the Air~
After about an hours time, Vegeta had found his goddess asleep of all things. He had her in his arms, flying to his and Nappa's pods. He only needed time, and that would give it to him. Now, Vegeta neared the pods; they were right below him. Slowly he descended, careful not to wake the sleeping beauty. He shut her in the pod so she would be safe from what was going to happen. 'Soon, Princess. Soon you will remember what we had.'

With that he left to check to see if Nappa had completed his task.

~Outside the Mall~
Nappa had indeed completed his task. He had, in fact, done more then the prince had asked by blowing up the entire populace, excluding Endymon (who had changed back to Mamoru by the time Nappa blew everything up).

Vegeta landed surveying Nappa's handiwork. He smirked. His scouter had shown that the play-prince was still alive. The Senshi were all dead, except the Outers. They were still faithful to the princess, and would stay alive as long as that was so.

"Well, there's nothing keeping us here anymore. Time for Kakerot to die, again." Chuckling, Vegeta rose into the air once again, and headed to where the Z Senshi where {A.N. After checking his scouter, of course.}


~~~~~ End Part One ~~~~~
That's the first part! I'm actually gunna have a long chapter! (Not cutting it off here, just a quick interlude) Find out whither Usa gets her memories back or not! Oh, and I left Mamoru alive for no reason in particular. Maybe just for some bashing later (he's not one of my favorite characters 'n' I don't really like Usa/Mamoru stories so mine aren't gunna be, so there! ;P) I was listening to my Staind CD and decided that this song would fit how Vegeta felt about his Usa-chan when she died. It's called 'Safe Place'
Another day
inside my world
I'm married to
you and this road
A road that never lets
me sleep so there's
no way to escape the
demons I am
forced to keep
And then I find you here
Through your eyes
everything is clear
And I'm home
inside your arms
but I'm alone for now
I mean the best
with what I say
It doesn't always sound that way
I never learned to
work things out cause
in my family all we
ever seem to do is shout
But then I find you here
Through your eyes
everything's clear
And I'm home
inside your arms
but I'm alone for now
And when I try to sleep
the drugs I take
are killing me - I think of you
to ease my pain but you're so far
Now it's time to say goodbye
I love you baby please don't cry
'Cause then I'll find you here
Through your eyes everything's clear
And I'm home inside your arms but I'm alone for now
