Hey, I'm doing okay with getting these done!
Jupiterschild, how come you haven't emailed me? I tried to send this chapter to you awhile ago, but it kept coming back.
Anyways, thanks for sticking around this long... You know me, I love plot twists, so, here's another one for ya! Enjoy, and PLEASE review! Or you can email me at akamoonsugar@yahoo.com. Tell me what you think. No feedback = no new chapters. I'm going to try and upload new chapters for some of my other stories, too!
ANNOUNCEMENT- (I hope everyone will see this.) I'm starting an author-alert of my own. If you want to be emailed whenever this or my other stories are updated, include your email IN YOUR REVIEW (even if you are a member at ff.net). I'll add you on and you'll know about the new chapters as they are posted!!

The nine of them charged through the forest on horseback, yelling back and forth to each other.
"Baka onna! Why'd she run?! She's a coward!" Wufei exclaimed. A tree branch smacked him across the back of his head, and he turned around just in time to see Rei drop a thin peice of wood on the ground, and it quickly disappeared out of sight as they rode on.
"She's NOT weak and she's definately NOT a coward, Wufei!" the raven haired girl yelled at him. He simply smirked, not answering. She rolled her eyes heavenward, and encouraged her brown horse to go faster. Soon they had ridden quite a ways, and Hiiro suddenly slowed.
"What's that?" Duo wondered aloud. A silver/white horse raced at a breakneck speed towards them. It was Ariake. She stopped about twenty feet in front of them, neighed, and bucked up, standing on her back two hooves. She neighed and whinied again, then took off in the direction she had come. The nine other horses began to follow at the same fast pace, completely ignoring anything their riders said or did. Suddenly, all ten horses stopped simultaniously behind a wall-like formation of trees and shrubs. Most of them were able to keep balanced when the horses stopped without warning, but the force of it sent Duo flying over his horses's head. He landed on his butt in the dirt, laughing. Hiiro quickly jumped off his own horse and silenced the braided one.
"Shh!" he warned, and then began to look around for Usagi. Minako beat him to it. She peered curiously at something the others couldn't see. Rei put her hand on Minako's shoulder and spoke to the Senshi.
"I sense evil. We may need the Senshi." she said, looking at Usagi's figure and it's surroundings.
"Why don't we just charge in there?" Matoko asked, readying herself to do so. Suddenly, a flash of black light swept through the area around where Usagi lay, still unconsious. A figure cloaked in a long, black, hooded cloak stepped out from the portal and moved towards her motionless figure.
"That's why. Senshi!" Rei exclaimed. Duo grinned as they transformed.
"Oh yeah, short skirt time, baby!" he was immediately whacked upside the head by the four others. They turned their attention back to the scene at hand, and the Senshi silently prepared their attacks. As the cloaked man bent to pick her up, a bolt of lightning mixed with fire, ice, and a electric chain came out of nowhere and hit him squarely in the back. The man did not cry out, but was visibly shaking as he turned around. The hood of the cloak blocked the man's face from view, but dark blue, silver-lined eyes stood out in the darkness.
"Get away from her!" Sailor Jupiter yelled. The figure picked Usagi's body up, using it as a shield.
"Why?" he demanded. "WHY?! I already lost her once!! I WANT MY MOTHER!!" he screamed. The others looked shocked.
"What?" Mars asked incredously. He nodded.
"She's my mother..." he whispered. They moved closer.
"Alright, put Usagi down and then we'll talk." Quatre negotiated. The boy nodded, and handed Usagi gently to Jupiter, who gave her over to Hiiro. The boy, who seemed to shrink in fear from them, sat down on the ground. The others sat with him.
"Now, what's this about the onna being your mother?" Wufei asked harshly. The boy, who still had his hood up and still shadowed his face, sighed and then answered.
"She is my mother. I've come from the future to get her." Hiiro's head snapped up at this.
"She's not going anywhere." he said in a dark voice. The boy mumbled something none of them could really hear. Usagi moved a bit in Hiiro's arms, and put a hand to her forehead, trying to open her eyes. Hiiro caressed her hair softly, mind working overtime.
"What's going on?" Usagi asked, sitting up a bit and leaning against Hiiro for support. She sat in his lap, and looked at the newcomer. Her eyes widened slightly.
"You hold the power of the Ginzuishou. How can that be?" She asked him. He smiled at her.
"You are my okaasan." he replied. Her eyes widened even more.
"How?" she trailed off.
"I'm from the future." he said again. "You are my okaasan. See, I came back with Setsuna-sama's help. We need you in the future. It's really important."
"Why?" Mercury asked. The boy waited for a moment before replying.
"My sister, she's..." the blue eyes scanned their faces. "She's in big trouble. We think she might be dying. She tried to use the Gizuishou, and something happened. We need you to come back with us, Okaasan."
"Are you sure it's not just from the energy drain?" Quatre asked. Ami had spent a few hours explaining the Crystal to him.
"That's exactly what you said when she got sick." the boy said, and then his eyes widened as if he was mentally smacking himself.
"What? We're still there in the future?" Trowa asked. The boy shook his head, berating himself silently for his mistake.
"Kind of." the boy answered. Usagi had been edging closer to her 'son' the whole time.
"What's your name?" she asked.
"I can't tell you that." he replied. "Call me by my nickname, Ookami." She nodded, accepting the information silently.
"It means 'wolf', right?" Hiiro asked. The boy nodded.
"If Usagi is your mother, your okaasan, then who's your father?" Quatre asked. Once again, Ookami explained that he couldn't tell.
"She's dying, Okaasan. Without your help she'll be dead soon. Will you help her?" Ookami begged. Usagi pondered for a moment.
"Can anyone else come along? I might not be strong enough." she said. Her 'son' shook his head.
"I don't have enough power to take anyone else, Okaasan. Setsuna-sama said only you should come." he told her. "Will you help?" he asked again.
Usagi looked him in the eye. What she saw amazed and frightened her beyond belief, and she answered quickly after that.
