Okay, ya'll know the drill. I'm not gonna repeat myself, alrighty? I'm trying to update this as much as I can, ok? I'm working on another story, and I still need to finish "My Last Summer With You". I'm thinking of having chapter five be the last chapter. Maybe it will. I'm not sure. But I'm also posting a story for a friend, so bear with me, please. I'm having fun making cliff hangers. Well, I'm gonna get on with this chapter before ya'll kill me.

"Girls," said Darien. "Please just give up. They'll let you live and we can work for OZ. All of this time, we've been wrong. The Gundams are the ones who will destroy Earth, not OZ. OZ is working for the good of the people."
"NO," screamed Serena. "Darien, please, tell us you aren't on their side. Tell us that you're not the enemy."
"I'm with OZ, Sailor Moon," Darien said solemly. "And I have something to tell you. I've met someone."
"What do you mean," Serena whispered.
"I've met someone who makes me happy," explained Darien. "I won't tell you her name. Release me, Sailor Moon. Release me or I'll be forced to kill you to gain my freedom."
"No, you can't be serious," Serena said, trying to smile. " Please, stop pulling our legs and let's get out of here."
"I'm serious," he said solemly. Serena screamed. Lita tried to attack them, but the mobile suits containing Sailor Venus and Mercury held her back. They started pulling her out and she understood. Sailor Mars tried to drag Serena back.
"The Gundams," someone screamed. The Sailor Scouts looked up. Sure enough, there were the five gundams. They started attacking the enemy and the scouts took this distraction for granted and tried getting away. But the gundam Heavyarms blocked their way.
"Move or be destroyed," said Jupiter, hoping that this usless Aries would be up to battle if it came to that.
"You'll be the one destroyed," said the pilot, his face coming up on Jupiter's screen.
It was Trowa! Lita couldn't believe it. She had to fight down the urge to cry out to him. She knew that he didn't reconize her, since she was Sailor Jupiter. She couldn't believe that he was one of the Gundam pilots. That must mean the other guys were in the other gundams.
The sailor scouts' faces appeared on the G-boys' screens. Duo couldn't believe that the people in the mobile suits were five babes, Quatre slightly blushed, Wufei was infuriated that these women were allowed to fight but supposed that OZ needed all the help it could get, Heero was indifferent, and Trowa felt like he knew these beautiful soldiers from somewhere.
"We aren't looking for a fight," said Sailor Jupiter.
"You're with OZ, so you're the enemy, so you'll be destroyed," said Heero.
"We aren't with OZ," said Mars hotly. "We were coming here to steal these mobile suits so that we could go get ours. We're on your side."
"Says who," asked an irratated Wufei.
"Says Dr.J," replied Mercury. "He employed us a few years back and now we need to go get our suits. Please, we are on the same side and there's no reason for a fight between us."
"You weak onnas shouldn't be here," replied Wufei. "I won't fight you. I don't fight bleeding hearts or women. Get out of here while you can."
"Thanks, Wufei," Jupiter said, winking at him.
"How did you know my name," asked Wufei.
"Everything will be explained later, at Quatre's mansion," explained a miserable Serena.
(A few days later, a disclosed location in space........)
"Finally," breathed Sailor Venus. "I thought that we'd never reach this place," she said as the flew inside the sercet hanger on the planet Pluto.
The sailor scouts jumped out of the Aries and looked around. There was a collective sigh of relief from them. The girls looked at their gundams.
Lita's was designed to look like Heavyarms, but was emerald green where Heavyarms was white and sugar pink where Heavyarms was red. It had most of the same capibilities as Heavyarms, since it was fashioned after Heavyarms.
Ami's was designed to look like Natku, except it was colored navy where Nataku was red and sky blue where Natku was blue.
Rei's was designed to look like Sandrock. Her's looked more or less like Sandrock, but where Sandrock was black, Rei's gundam was red and where Sandrock was yellow, Rei's was purple.
Mina's gundam was a replica of Deathscythe. Where Deathscyther was black, Mina's was blue, and where Deathscythe was white, Mina's was gold.
Last, but not least, there was Serena's gundam. It was designed to look like Wing Zero. But where Wing Zero was blue, Serena's gundam was red. Where Wing Zero was red, Serena's was blue. And where Wing Zero was white, Serena's was gold.
The girls looked at their gundams in awe.
"Fate," Serena whispered.
"Destiny," Mina whispered.
"Ice," Ami whispered.
"Heart," Lita whispered.
"Fuego," Rei whispered.
"So,I see the sailor scouts are back for their gundams," said a voice behind them. "Where's Tuxedo Mask?"
The girls spun around to face the old man that was addressing them. They immedatly reconized him as Dr. J. He was sizing them up.
"I repeat, where is Tuxedo Mask," questioned Dr.J.
Serena sank to the floor, buried her face in her hands, and didn't try to stop the fresh flow of tears.
"He betrayed us," snarled Jupiter as she sunk to the floor to comfort Serena.
"I see," said Dr. J. "We will need someone to pilot Chiba, then."
The old doctor gestured to the last gundam. This one was Darien's. It's name was Chiba and it was an exact copy of Epyon. He'd had it colored black where Epyon was crimson and blood-red where Epyon was white. Serena started crying harder as the memories of Darien flooded back to her.
"I suppose that we can keep Chiba as a back-up for when one of your's is damaged. We're in the process of moving this base. We knew about the whole thing before you five arrived," explained the old doctor.
"Good," said Serena when she collected herself enough to speak. "We're going to meet up with the other gundam pilots at Quatre's when we get back to the colony."
"Perfect," said the aged doctor. "Now we'll know where to reach you."
Dr. J walked off, mumbling about how hard teenage girls were to track down and something about them and shopping malls.
~*~*~
(Days later, back to Quatre's mansion...............)
The girls put their gundams in the hanger with the guys' and walked inside. All of them were dead on their feet. They were no longer in "scout form", but now looked as they did everyday. With great effort that they didn't think themselves capable of, they dragged themselves halfway up the steps when they heard a noise behind them.
"Who's there," shouted Lita, whipping around to see who made the noise. The lights came on and at the foot of the steps were the five guys. The girls sighed in unsion.
"Explination," commanded Heero.
"Let us get Serena in bed first," said Mina. "She's had a rough day. We promise to be right back."
The girls didn't wait for Heero's reply. They waited outside the bathroom door as Serena changed into her pajamas then tucked her into bed. The only words she said were: "Thank-you for being my friends. Good night."
~*~*~
Over the next few hours, the girls told the gundam pilots about their sailor scout powers powers and their gundams. They told about Darien's betrayal and Serena's broken heart. They even went over Dr.J's secret base. At the end, they answered questions. That took another thiry minutes since they had to explain it all over, but in a shorter version, to Duo, who had fallen asleep at the part about the Moon Kingdom, which was at the beginning. Finally, the exausted girls got to sleep.
(The next day............)
Serena didn't feel like doing anything. The love of her life had betrayed her and now had another. She had a gaping void in the middle of her life. But her heart hurt the worst. It felt like someone crushed it with a sledgehammer. She turned on the radio and turned it up loud.
+"Hero" by Chad Kroger and Josey Scott {I'm not sure if it's "Josey Scott" or "Scott Josey". Either way, I don't own this song. Porr, pitiful me. I don't own anything.}+
I am so high, I can hear Heaven
I am so high, I can hear Heaven
Oh, but, Heaven
No, Heaven don't hear me
Chorus:
And they say that a hero can save us
I'm not gonna stand here and wait
I'll hold on to the wings of the eagels
And watch as they all fly away
Someone told me
Love would all save us
How can that be
When look what love gave us
A world full of killing
And bloond-spilling
That world never came
Repeat Chorus
Gituar solo
Now that the world isn't ending
It's love that I'm sending to you
It isn't the love of a hero
And that's why I fear it won't do
Repeat Chorus
And they're watching us
Watching us
They're watching us
Watching us
As we all fly away
And they're watching us
Watching us
They're watching us
As we all fly away
Yeah
And they're watching us
Watching us
They're watching us
As we all fly away
Oh
Knowing the song by heart, Serena sung along. She didn't even notice the man in her doorway until they repeated the chorus for a second time. He was actually singing along with her. She hadn't expected that from this man. Duo, maybe. But not him.
(Heero's room, a few minutes before "Hero" came on.........)
Heero was looking up more data on these strange girls when he heard a familiar song playing down the hall. He got up and walked towards the room from which the song was playing.
Inside, he saw the blonde girl with the funny hairstyle. What was her name again? *Serena,* a voice inside of him whispered. He watched as she begun to sing the song that he had memorised by heart.
As the song came to an end, Serena turned her head towards him and looked right into his eyes. Deep, way down, so deep that if you tried to get there, you'd need about twenty oxygen tanks and a shovel because it was buried, a chord struck in his heart. Her eyes were red from crying and they looked so unbelieveably sad.
"You know this song," she asked in a whisper that was barely audiable.
"Yeah," he answered. "I've heard it a few times and I know the lyrics. You?"
"It's my favorite song," she said, trying to smile through her tears. "The others tell you about the whole........deal?"
"Yes," was his only response. He came and sat down beside her on the floor of her bedroom.
Feeling the urge to cry again, Serena tried to blink the tears away. But she was unsucessful and they ran down her face all the same. She felt a hand on her shoulder, and looked over at Heero. It was his hand. She threw herself into his arms and cried on his chest.
Shocked at first, Heero didn't know what to do. Then he wrapped his strong arms around her back and stroked her hair. He felt the barrier around his heart melt away, and felt something on his cheek. He wiped it away with his index finger and looked to see what it was. He was crying. Heero Yuy, the perfect soldier, the smotionless destroyer, was holding a beautiful girl in his arms and sharing her pain, and crying, none the less!
After a few minutes, Serena stopped crying and simply laid against Heero's chest, her fists balled around sections of his green tanktop, and listened to his heart beat. She heard it, strong and healthy, beating in time with her own. She looked up and saw a few last tears roll down her cheeks. Tenderly, she wiped them away and kissed his cheek lightly. So he was human afterall.........
"You should smile," he said. "You're pretty when you frown, but you're far prettier when you smile and laugh."
She smiled at him. Suddenly, he pressed his lips to hers in a soft, but demanding kiss. When he pulled back, for the first time that she'd ever seen, he smiled. She giggled back and got up to get dressed, ready to face the day and whatever it may bring. Heero left to do more work.
What Serena didn't know was that she wouldn't be able to face what the day would bring. For at that moment, Darien and Relena were heading straight towards Quatre's mansion. Each oblivios to the other, they hurried on their way.

Well,that's it for now. In case you're wondering, the name of Rei's gundam is Spanish. It's supposed to mean Fire. I'm not sure if it does since I don't know like, hardly any Spanish. So, how many people really like this? I would like to know that. If you love it, on your review, put 321 after your message. If you just like it and not like totally love it, put 213. And if you totally hate it, put 123. Well, I'm dead tired. I'm going to go to sleep. Review friends. ::Stifles a yawn:: La-::Stifles another yawn:: Lat ::yawns:: Lat ::yawns:: Ah, screw it.
