A.N. Konnichi wa minna! How's it goin'? Here is the long awaited ch.9. In case you were wondering about why I used 'I Want to Hold Your Hand' it's because there is a version of it on a SM CD, I think it's Lunarock, with girls (like the Senshi) singing it. I'd also like to apologize in advance if this chapter sucks. I've been working really hard lately on my other fic, 'What's Wrong With Usagi?' & it's starting to have a bit of an affect on me. (It's depressing!) I can't even work much on my original story lately b/c it's at such a happy part & I keep having an urge to make something really dramatic & depressing happen. *Sigh* Anyway, I'll try to lighten my mood & write a good chapter for you all. Enjoy!

Disclaimer: I don't own these characters. They belong to my IDOL, Naoko Takeuchi-sensei. ^_~ I don't own the songs either!

Idols - Epilogue

"Usagi-chan." Minako said as she stood at the airport. "I'm going to miss you." She hugged her. "You take good care of her, alright?" She said to Darien.

"Of course." He laughed.

"It feels so strange... this is the first time that we'll ever be apart for more than a day." Rei said.

"Yeah. We've always been together, except when we traveled to learn other languages & stuff. but that was only for 1 month. This is such a long-term thing." Ami said.

"Daijoubu, minna." Usagi smiled. "It's just for a little while, I'll see you all again."

"I don't even want to leave. I'll miss this place & you especially, too much." Makoto said.

The girls all hugged. "Then stay." Usagi said.

"Nani?" Everyone blinked.

"If you don't want to leave, then stay."

"Hontou ni?" Rei blinked. [A.N. "Really?" ^_^]

"Hontou ni. Stay here with me."

"Is it allowed?" Ami turned to Luna.

"I suppose you girls could stay in Hawaii. What about your singing, though?"

"It's been fun and all, but I don't want to do it without Usagi." Rei smiled.

"Yeah." The other girls agreed.

"Have fun girls. We'll see you around." Artemis smiled.

"You're leaving?" Minako asked Luna & Artemis.

"Yes. You don't need us to look after you anymore. You're grown up & ready to live your lives for yourselves. The moon can wait." Luna smiled & hugged them all goodbye.

"Thank you for everything, Luna. Come back & visit sometime, okay?" Usagi wiped the tears from her eyes.

"Of course."

*~*~*2 Weeks Later*~*~*

"Usa?" Darien whispered in her ear. "Are you glad you stayed?"

"Of course." She smiled up at him. "I got to stay with you."

"Usa..." He leaned over as they lay on the beach as the sun set.

"Da-" Usagi's words were cut short as something hit her in the head. "Itai!!" [A.N. "Ouch!!"]

"Oops!" Minako winced. "Sorry!" She ran over & picked up her volleyball.

"Do you want to go inside?" Usagi grinned as she turned to Darien.

"Well, it probably would be a lot safer." He laughed.

They ran inside & the four other girls continued playing volleyball. "Kami- sama, Minako-chan! Your 'flying somersault reception' just isn't what it used to be." Rei laughed. "That was way off!"

Minako looked over at the house where Usagi & Darien had just run inside of. "Well, I don't about that..." She grinned.
