Hello there! Here is another chapter. And just keep those reviews coming!
I still don't own Sailor Moon and Trigun. I just wonder for how many more chapters I will have to say it? It looks like a never-ending crossover to me now. My worst nightmare is coming true!
Kei-chan. Thanks. Without you I would never figure out the difference between the shrines and the temples. Can you repeat it few more times? I am hopeless. :-P

Chapter 12. The Power of the Broom
Yuuichirou dropped his broom when he heard a noise on the shrine roof. He struggled with the urge to run away, and then grabbed the broom from the floor and prepared to battle with the intruder. With the yell "I'll protect you, Rei!" the musician-in-training jumped outside, ready to fight the enemy.
Vash blinked a few times when a strange guy jumped out of nowhere and tried to hit him with a broom. Vash easily dodged the blows. "Hey! Good morning to you, too! You know, if you get a haircut, you'll probably see better and improve your fighting skills!"
"Grrrrrrrrrr!" Yuuichirou couldn't believe that after all those years of martial arts training he couldn't even land a single hit on the tall blond in front of him. He was getting really frustrated.
"Hey, how about you treat me to a nice breakfast and I'll teach you an ancient broom-fighting technique absolutely free of charge!" Vash was getting really worried about the poor fellow in front of him who fell at least ten times flat on his face but still was determined to fight.
"By the way, I really like pancakes!" Vash stepped aside and sadly sighed when Yuuichirou bumped into a tree.
A little bald man appeared from the shrine and bowed to Vash. "Welcome to the Hikawa Shrine, young man! I am impressed by your speed and abilities; you can stay here, be my pupil, and marry my granddaughter!"
Rei picked up the broom and hit her grandfather over the head. "What is the meaning of this, Grandpa?"
Usagi flew from the shrine in her pajamas and jumped on Vash's back. "Vash- chan! I've missed you so much!"
Rei poked her grandfather with the broom. The old man was staring at Usagi's bottom with drool coming out of his mouth. "Grandpa, you and Yuuichirou can go back to your training! I have it all under control. Out! Out! Both of you!"
Vash suspiciously eyed Rei and her broom and whispered to Usagi, who was still attached to his back: "You think she'll give us some pancakes? That broom in HER hands makes me nervous, I think she knows an old broom- fighting technique!"
Rei snorted. "Usagi, you have absolutely no shame running around in those pajamas of yours! Get inside the house before you ruin my shrine's reputation!" The priestess flipped her dark hair over her shoulder and dangerously waved her broom around. "Vash, what brings you here?"
Vash paled and quickly placed Usagi in front of him, trying to hide behind her back. "If you put that broom down I'll tell you! I have some important things to discuss and they concern Usagi's health."
Rei almost let out a cry of surprise but controlled herself. "Follow me."
Vash screamed in delight and skipped behind Rei with Usagi in tow. "By the way, I like my pancakes with butter and syrup!"
************
"So I was right then?" Ami pulled out her minicomputer after they finished their breakfast. "Usagi can't be without her Crystal for much longer."
"True." Vash thought of licking the syrup off the plate, but then looked at Rei and changed his mind.
"I don't understand; Usagi was able to live without the Crystal for so long before she became Sailor Moon." Makoto smiled at Vash and placed two more pancakes on his plate.
"Usagi has had the Crystal with her for more than a year. She is connected to it now, losing the Crystal was like losing an important part of herself." Ami solemnly shook her head.
Vash stared at the minicomputer in Ami's hands. He moved his pancakes closer to Usagi, who was hungrily looking at his plate, and smiled at Ami. "May I see your computer, please?"
Five pairs of eyes stared at him for a few minutes in disbelief. Ami finally blinked and handed him her computer. "Sure."
A piece of the pancake fell from Usagi's mouth when she saw Vash's fingers fly over the keyboard.
Makoto not so gently slapped Usagi's back. "I guess the only difference between you and your male reincarnation, Usagi, is that he's a genius!"
"Are you calling me stupid, Mako-chan?" Usagi stuck her outraged face in Makoto's.
"How did you do that?" Ami looked at the screen over Vash's shoulder.
"There is a mode button right here, you knew that, right?" Vash sheepishly looked at a blushing Ami. "Uh, well, here is what I've discovered: Usagi's health will be getting worse if Setsuna isn't back with the Crystal in the next couple of hours."
The girls let out a cry of surprise and Usagi started sobbing.
Vash looked with worry at the blond and quickly continued: "But there is an alternative."
Ami grabbed the computer from Vash's hands. "I see it now, I can't believe I haven't thought of it before, the answer was right in the front of me! Usagi and Vash have a similar power, so if he stays within a small distance from her she will be just fine! Usagi will be able to absorb Vash's energy for her needs. He is a perfect substitute for the Ginzuishou."
Minako poked Usagi with her finger. "How convenient for you, Usagi, ne?"
Usagi wiped her tears, grinned, and threw herself in Vash's arms. "Being with Vash-chan is good for my health, and you all are just jealous!"
************
Chibi-Usa shook with anger when she saw Usagi hugging the tall blond. She lost her balance and with a loud thud fell into the room. "Uh, hello everybody, I was walking by…"
Usagi snorted. "Yeah, yeah, sure, Chibi-Usa, you were spying on us!"
Vash happily waved to the small girl. "Hey there, Little Lady! How are you?"
"Don't call me that, you jerk! You're not allowed to!"
"I am so sorry, Little Lady!"
"Grrrrrr."
"Never again, Little Lady."
"What did I just say?"
"Don't call you a Little Lady, Little Lady?" Vash helpfully hinted and paled when he saw an all too familiar broom in Chibi-Usa's hands.
Usagi and Rei blinked and looked at each other when a screaming Vash disappeared with Chibi-Usa and a broom in tow.
"Here they go again. The broom is sure popular in your shrine, Rei."
"I'll be damned…" Rei watched Vash getting hit by Chibi-Usa's broom over and over again. "This guy is a total idiot!"
************
Chibi-Usa wasn't sure if she'd gotten her revenge yet after pushing Vash on the ground, straddling him, and stuffing his mouth with leafs and grass.
The tall blond spit out the dirt and winked at the small girl. "Wanna do it again?"
This wasn't right. The guy was letting her torture him. Chibi-Usa scowled at the outlaw. "Who are you anyway?"
"Right on, Chibi-Usa! You attack the person and then ask him for his name! Where are your manners!" Usagi pulled Chibi-Usa away from Vash.
"That's ok," Vash laughed. "Kids do that to me all the time."
"Where are YOUR manners, Usagi-baka! How dare you betray Mamo-chan like that!" Chibi-Usa snatched her hand away from the older girl.
"What are you talking about, Chibi-Usa! I would never betray Mamo-chan! Apologize this instant!"
"Never!"
"Apologize, you brat!"
"Never! You hate me! You'd to do anything for me to disappear!" Chibi-Usa sniffed.
"What?" Usagi shrieked.
Vash looked at the two girls with worry. It looked like both of them were about to cry now.
Chibi-Usa wailed, "Don't you know that if you and Mamo-chan break up I will never exist! I don't want to disappear!"
"Excuse me, " - Vash tried to save the day - "as long as Usagi is your mother you will not disappear, Little Lady." Vash winked at a startled Usagi and continued. "If someone else is your father you'll look different, but it will still be you."
Usagi smiled when she realized what Vash was doing. "Yes, Chibi-Usa, if Vash is your daddy you will have blond hair and green eyes, just like him!"
Vash coughed, grinned at Usagi and cooed: "Or you might be a boy! A cute little blond boy! But it will still be you!"
Chibi-Usa's eyes were as big as dinner plates. "What? A boy! I don't want to be a boy! I hate you both!"
Vash and Usagi watched the pink-haired girl angrily storm off and then gave each other a high five.
I still don't own Sailor Moon and Trigun. I just wonder for how many more chapters I will have to say it? It looks like a never-ending crossover to me now. My worst nightmare is coming true!
