Thanks for the reviews, guys! I am glad that you like it so far. I'll try to get the new chapters out every week. I hope you'll enjoy it.

I have noticed in the reviews that some of your never watched Trigun before. Of course I am flattered that you read this fanfiction anyway, but if you will get to one of the Trigun websites to read the general information or even better - watch the anime - you will have a better chance understanding the inside jokes and some of the plot! ::grins:: Just trying to advertise my favorite anime here. Did it work??? But I am happy that you are here with me anyway.

Disclaimer: I read this scary article about people being sued for writing fanfiction and got REALLY REALLY scared: PLEASE, don't sue me! I don't own anything! Tigun and Sailor Moon belong to their rightful owners.

Chapter 4 Usagi has a secret?



Vash placed unconscious Usagi on the bed. He sat next to her with the worried look on his face clasping her small hand in his.

Michuru brought a wet towel and placed it on the young girl's forehead. She eyed Vash for a few seconds. 'You need to take care of your wounds. I'll find you some clean clothes."

Vash smiled and thanked her. Michuru's heart skipped a bit: there was so much sadness in his smile, it seemed like this man was caring the weight of the whole world on his shoulders.

Haruka and Setsuna were arguing in the living room.

"Are you sure you don't need any help? I can go with you!"

"I will repeat it one more time, Haruka. First of all: none of you are allowed to visit Crystal Tokyo anymore, and second: if I will have to go to another dimension to get the Crystal, I won't be able to transport us both, even with the help of your planet's power!"

"Well, you got both Usagi and this guy here no problem, why can't you take me with you? You will need help!"

"I work alone, Haruka! All I need for you to do is to watch over Vash for the time that I am gone. And I mean it. Watch his every step. This man has an ability to bring a disaster everywhere he goes! He is called a Humanoid Typhoon for a reason. And his power is even greater then all of ours put together! I saw what he can do, Haruka, and he were the one who transported us back here. And keep him away from Usagi at all cost!"

"Yes, Ma'am" Haruka kept her fingers crossed behind her back. 'Wow, Setsuna is seriously pissed at this guy, I think I am going to have a lot of fun having him around!'

Setsuna walked back in the bedroom and looked at Usagi who was slowly gaining her consciousness. She eyed the blond for a few minutes and then turned to Michuru.

" I am afraid you and Haruka will have to let Vash stay in your house until I return."

Usagi still a little bit drowsy got in the sitting position and protested:

"He will live in my house! I can't have him stay with the people he doesn't even know!" She threw her arms around Vash and locked him into the tight hug daring anyone to separate them.

Haruka had a mischievous look on her face. "Aw! How cute! Koneko-chan is got a new pet! Well, too bad that your Dad doesn't let you keep these kind of pets in the house!"

Usagi paled: "Well… I could ask Chibi Usa if she could use her Luna-ball on my parents to have them believe that Vash is my cousin!"

"Sure, - Haruka's voice turned into the sensual purr - "And your next step will be brainwashing your dad into having this blond kitten sleep in the same room with you?"

"Iiiiiiiiieeeeeee!" Usagi got to her feet clasping her hands in fists.

Michuru lightly slapped Haruka on the shoulder and Setsuna gave her a stare that made sandy blond wish that she was somewhere else instead.

Haruka gulped and grabbed Vash by his arm. "Come on, Doll Face, let's get you cleaned up! Koneko, let me know when you are ready and I will give you a ride home. Ja ne, Setsuna-san!" Haruka quickly disappeared from the room with Vash in tow.

Setsuna sat next to Usagi on the bed and took her hand. "Princess, you know that everything I do is for you and for your future."

Usagi, still red from Haruka's comment, nodded: "I know Setsuna."

Older woman smiled and enveloped the blond in the tight hug. "Don't worry, Princess, I will find your Crystal, I won't fail ".

Vash made sure that the bathroom door was locked and then took off his shirt and soiled bandages. His wounds on the chest were almost completely gone. "Weird. It healed really fast for such deep shot, even for me!" He narrowed his eyes. "I hope Setsuna is coming back soon, I can't stay here too long. I wonder what could've gone wrong with Usagi's Crystal." He remembered her saying that Crystal was responding to his emotions. "I never knew something like that could happen". Yes, indeed, Crystal had an ability to store memories and emotions but Vash thought it could only be memories of the people who own it. It probably was reacting to Vash's power because both powers were so similar. "Like a child drown to his mother." Vash sadly smiled and got in the shower. "I hope Usagi will be ok after all this."

After the shower he took the clothes that Michuru gave him and tried to put it on. He winced when he realized that his pants and the sleeves of his shirt were too short and the buttons on the front wouldn't close. "Damn, It's a girl's clothes!"

He stumbled out of the bathroom muttering to himself and run into Usagi who was waiting for him at the door.

"Vash. I am so sorry I put you through all this. It's all my fault, if I was more responsible, none of it would've happened!"

"Hey, it takes two to tango, you know. I am partially responsible for this situation and I will do whatever it takes to deal with this problem, even wear a girl's clothes!"

Usagi stared at Vash's half covered body and giggled her cheeks turning deep crimson.

Vash froze when Usagi suddenly hugged him pressing her heated face into his bare chest and let out a sigh of relieve when Haruka showed up with the car keys.

"I'll see you tomorrow, Vash" Usagi, still blushing waved goodbye and left with taller woman.

"He is a looker" Haruka commented on the way to Usagi's house.

Usagi was too busy thinking of an excuse that she would give her parents for coming home this late and Haruka's words caught her off guard. "Yeah"- she said dreamily and then almost fell off her seat-" What? No, he is not! What made you think that!"

Haruka laughed "Well, maybe you don't think so, but I am sure Michuru thinks that he is hottie, I saw the way she was looking at him!"

"No way!" Usagi's eyes were as big as the front lights on Haruka's car, jealousy slowly making its way into her heart.

Haruka was happy with Usagi's reaction; she reacted the exact way Haruka expected for her to react. "Aw, don't be jealous, koneko. Look but don't touch!"

They finally reached Usagi's house and Usagi left the car with the feeling that her blond companion has tricked her somehow.

"Don't worry, Usagi-chan, I won't tell anyone" Haruka winked and lightly brushed a soft skin on Usagi's hand. "Sweet dreams, Princess, make sure your Dream Mirror doesn't get into the hands of the Amazon Quartet, or everyone will know your heart's secrets! Ja ne!

Hakura speed off in her car leaving furiously flushed Usagi behind.
