Ossu Minna!!! Doomo for all the reviews, be sure to read the author notes at the end of the chapter! I'm sick again (I got better from what I had before, then I got sick again...okok so I have a weak immune system, there's nothing I can do about it) so this chapter is kind of screwed because of my being sick. Oh, and as always, this chapter starts, around the same time after the last one. Enjoy!
Tenshi_no_Neptune no.1- you misinterpreted what I said. I meant that I was happy after reading the good reviews, and that they made me feel better after reading all the flames. Make sense? hope so! =)

*~*Chapter 6*~*
Goku and Gohan flew for about 10 minutes before reaching their home in the Black Forest. Right after their feet touched the ground a few meters away from their house, Usagi awoke.
"Ugh, where am I?" she grumbled, not enjoying the fact that she woke up.
"You're in the Black Forest where our home is" replied Goku as he watched his son enter the house.
Her vision still blurred with the remnants of sleep, and her mind still dazed, squinted upwards to the face of the person who was holding her.
"W-who are you?" she asked as her still tired mind drew a blank on the identity of the person.
His eyes opened wide with surprise "N-nani?"
"Goku-san?" she questioned as a name clicked in her head
"Hai, but I thought I told you to call my Goku" he replied, happiness flooded his system as he heard her say him name. 'So she didn't forget'
"Gomen nasi, I forgot." She apologized with a sheepish grin
"It alright, let's go inside before you get sick!" he exclaimed as her put her back on the ground.
Her mind may have been awake now, but her body sure wasn't. Her legs wobbled beneath her as she stood there uncertainly, and then suddenly gave way unable to support the weight. Arms encircled her waist from behind, barely catching her before she hit the ground.
"Daijoubu ka?" Goku asked worriedly
" Da-Daijoubu" Usagi replied while yawning, "I'm just tired, that's all"
"Ne, let's get you inside so you can get some sleep!"
Goku supported Usagi with an arm around her waist as they walked towards the house.
'She's so light! I can barely feel her! and her skin so is soft, and her hair is just so- Dame Goku! you don't even know who she really is! For all you know, she could be a cruel, unforgiving person! Demo, that doesn't seem to fit her at all...'
What Usagi was thinking 'Sooooo sleepy, I feel like I'm not going to wake up for a week!'
(hee hee!)
To what seemed like an eternity to Usagi, they reached the entrance of the house, and walked through.
"I think I'm ok now Goku" Usagi said as she pulled away from him and started observing her surroundings
"Are you sure?" he asked, a bit saddened by her abrupt departure from his arms
"Hai....You have a beautiful home" she commented as she looked around
"Arigato, It's all I have other than my son of my son of course"
Usagi nodded, and was about to comment further when Gohan came down the stairs.
"Serenity-san, would you like me to show you to your room?"
She smiled at the young boy "Saa, that would be nice, demo, I'd like it if you both called me Usagi. It's easier to say than Serenity!"
"Usagi?" questioned Gohan
"Hai, it was a nickname given to me by my mother. Only my friends have called me by Usagi."
" Sugoi, demo why Usagi?" asked Goku
"My hair" she replied while pointing to her head "It reminded them of bunny ears"
"Sugoi! Alright Usagi, right this way to your room!" exclaimed Gohan as he took her hand and led her up the stairs.
"Here's your room" he said as he led her into the room at the end of the hall "It's right next to mine so if you need anything just come an get me, and my dad's is the one at the other end of the hall." he explained while pointing to the different rooms "And the bathroom is right across from your room, and the kitchen is just down the stairs."
" Doomo arigatoo Gohan for your help"
" Doo Itashimashite , well oyasumi Usagi " Gohan said before leaving her room.
"Oyasumi Gohan" She waited until he closed the door before she sighed and flopped down onto her bed.
'I guess I better get some sleep if I have to prepare for battle' she thought as she closed her eyes in concentration. In a bright flash, she was dressed in her old pink bunny pajamas, which she had worn for so many years; it even included her old stuffed bunny that she had received as a birthday present from the scouts.
'The scouts....I wonder where they are' she wondered as she climbed under the blankets. 'I hope they're happy' was the last thought before she drifted off to sleep.
*~*Usa's dream world*~*
She opened her eyes to find nothing but darkness around her.
"Nani? Where am I?" she asked out loud as she turned in every direction. She didn't like the feel of this place, wherever she was
"You're in my world" an eerie voice whispered out of nowhere. Suddenly, maniacal laughter filled the air, and it seemed to be coming from every direction.
"W-who are you?" Usagi demanded from the voice, she was scared. She received no answer.
With each passing moment the laughter became louder and louder and all Usagi could do was cover her ears in hope of blocking it out. No use, she could hear it in her head, her mind. It was driving her mad. She couldn't stand it, tears fell from her eyes and her legs became weak as she fell to the floor.
"What do you want?!" she screamed
"I want you Serenity" the same voice whispered through the laughter. "I want you to suffer for what you did to me. I'm going to find you, and when I do, you'll pay with the loss of those that you hold dear"
"no....No..NO! please stop!!!" she cried, she couldn't take it much longer. "Somebody help me! please!!" she cried as she summoned all her strength and started to run. She didn't know where, and she didn't care either. She just wanted to be rid of the horrid laughing, but she couldn't. It seemed to be following her wherever she went
"Serenity!" a new voice cried.
She stopped running and looked in the direction on the voice. It was her hope to get out this place, she knew it.
" Onegai, Help me!" she desperately cried out to it
Blinding lights cut though the darkness and surrounded her. She had never felt more relief, more comfort in her life as the evil laughter faded. She looked forward to see who her savior was. It was a figure, a man by the looks of it...but she couldn't see his face...
"Who are you?" she asked
No answer.
She walked closer to find that she still couldn't see who it was.
" Onegai, tell me who you are" she asked softly, stepping closer. She could now visibly see his body, but not his face....or any other distinguishing features...they was blurred from her vision. She could tell that he was tall...very tall, and his body was extremely well muscled
'Well, whoever he is must really work out'
"Serenity" he whispered as he tentatively reached out to wipe away her tears from her face gently with the back of his hand, "Onegai, don't leave me"
"How can I leave you when I don't know who you are?" She asked as she reached out a hand to touch the figure. Her hand went right through. "Nani?"
"Be careful" he whispered as the light consumed her. It meant that she was waking up.
"Matte! Who are you?" she cried out before she fully disappeared
"That voice, it sounds so familiar...who could it be?" Was the last thought she had in the dream world before she awoke.
(AN: see where I'm going with this?)
*~*End Dream*~*
Usagi bolted upright from her sheets once she had realized that she was awake. She was covered in a cold sweat, and shivering in fear.
"What was that? Who was that?!" she wondered out loud
'It may have been Chaos' a voice suggested in her mind 'or perhaps it was a clue to the events that are to come' another replied
"Who or whatever it was, it was creepy..." She said, still frightened by the dream, 'Perhaps I should go get some water to drink, that could help calm my nerves' She glanced at the clock at the side of the room 'almost midnight, they should be asleep by now.'
She carefully slid from under her covers and crept to the door of her room, silently opening it so that she would not disturb the others in the house. As she mutely walked from her room, she noticed a light on in the room next to hers.
'Isn't this Gohan's room? What is he doing up so late?' she wondered 'Couldn't hurt to take a look' she knocked on the door lightly, and she could hear a distinct 'Thump' and someone scrambling around in the room. 'Probably wasn't suppose to be up this late' she thought.
"Come in" a voice called from the other side of the door. Usagi slowly opened the door and slid into the room, closing the door behind.
"Usagi! Oh it's you! What are you doing up so late?" Gohan asked surprised
"I should be asking you the same thing!" she replied hands on her hips.
"Uhh....uhh...I was cleaning my room?"
"Sure Gohan, sure you were" Usagi said as she looked around his room. It was pretty clean; she had to admit as her eyes scanned the room. Her eyes landed on his desk, where papers and pencils and a lot of other assorted school accessories were scattered all over the place. She walked towards the desk.
"What's all this?" she asked as she glanced at the papers. 'eww...math' she thought as she saw the different equations on the paper.
"That's my school work, I was working on my math before you came in" he replied
"AH HAH! So you weren't cleaning your room!" she said, pointing an accusing finger at him, a large grin on her face
A sheepish looks crept across his face "Iie, I wasn't. You won't tell tousan that I was up late will you?"
"Iie, I won't, don't worry" she said still smiling
"Doomo Usagi-san"
"I won't tell as long as you don't call me 'san'. I told you, you're my friend, no need for formalities"
Gohan smiled, he liked being her friend "Hai Usagi"
"That's better, demo, why are you studying so hard?"
"I want to be a scholar when I grow up. It was my Kaasan's dream that I would become one..."
'His okaasan?' she thought "Ano...Gohan, if you don't mind me asking, where is your Kaasan?"
**Meanwhile**
Goku awoke suddenly and sat upright in his bed.
'Woah, what a dream' he thought 'Demo, what is it suppose to mean? and why was Serenity in it? Or at least I think it was Serenity'
He remembered seeing her running towards him in a pure white world. He could remember her screaming for help....Demo, help from what? It didn't make any sense...When she had reached him, he could clearly see that she had been crying, and it broke his heart to see her like that.... He couldn't remember any more after that....He didn't even remember if they said anything to each other.
There was an unsettling feeling in the pit of his stomach...he felt that something was wrong, that he needed to check on her.
Sliding out from his bed, he silently walked down the hall to her room. The door was open slightly so he pushed it lightly to open it further so that he could see inside without disturbing anyone. Her bed...it was empty
'Where is she?!' he frantically thought as he looked around. Only then did he see that the light in his sons' room was on. He thought he heard talking inside the room. He quietly crept up to the door, and put his ear next to it. He breathed a sigh of relief
'She's in there talking with Gohan' he thought 'I wonder about what'
He shifted his attention back to their conversation, right when he heard her ask
"Where is your Kaasan?"
'huh?'
**Back inside Gohan's room**
Gohan looked up at her with sad eyes. Usagi inwardly winced once she saw the look on his face. She could tell that whatever happened, it wasn't good.
"My Kaasan d-died when she gave birth to me" he answered in a dismayed voice. Even though he never knew his mother, he still felt responsible for her death. Everyone told him not to, but he just couldn't help it.
"Gomen nasi Gohan, I didn't mean to make you upset" Usagi said while sitting next to him on his bed. Wrapping a comforting arm around his shoulders, she continued speaking. "You know Gohan, you and I are alike in many ways."
He looked at her with question in his eyes "Soo ka? In what ways?"
"Ano...We were both brought up in a world that was once peaceful, but was suddenly torn with evil intentions, and forcing us to fight.." she began
"What do you mean?"
She looked at the young boy, 'so full of curiosity' she thought.
"Ne, what I mean is that we were both forced into a world that has required us to do things, and to witness events that we never wanted to"
He thought for a moment, "That's true about me. Why don't you tell me about how this applies to you"
'Should I really tell him? I could just tell him briefly about my life....I guess'
"Well, when I was younger, I lived in a beautiful and happy kingdom. Everyone there was happy, and never wished for a better life. However, one fateful day, an evil force destroyed our beautiful empire, and killed anyone that tried to protect it, including me."
"Demo, if you were killed, then how come you're here now?"
"Just wait and let me finish!"
"Oh, gomen"
"It's alright, well my Kaasan had sustained great power which she had used to seal away this evil. Demo, she was upset over my death, so using the last of her power, she sent my friends and I to the future where we were to live again and be happy. She had used too much power to save us, and she could no longer support her own life....so s-she d-died."
"You lost your Kaasan too?"
"Hai"
"Did you live with your tousan like me?"
"Iie, unlike you I didn't have a father. I never did in that time. A new family took me in, but I still knew that it wasn't the same as having your own family.
"Oh, I see"
"Anyways, while living with my new family, new dark forces started to attack, so I had to take my mothers place and power and fight them along side my friends"
"Like me and fighting with the Zsenshi"
"Hai, exactly. I hate fighting, I always had, but I learned it was necessary to protect the ones that I love. Demo, in the end, I c-could even do t-that" she choked on her words slightly as she thought of her beloved friends.
"Gomen nasi Usagi. You don't need to tell me anymore"
She forced a small smile onto her face "Gomen, I wanted to tell you the whole story. Perhaps another time, you will hear it all"
"Maybe, but you were right. We are alike in many ways"
"See I told you!" she laughed slightly. She glanced at the clock on his desk. 'wow, 12:30 already'
"I think I've kept you up way past your bedtime. You need your sleep if you want to be able to finish your studies"
"Heheh...I guess you're right"
Outside, Goku had heard everything. 'She's lead such a hard life, I wonder what she meant when she said that she couldn't protect the ones that she loved.'
He snapped back to attention once he heard footsteps nearing the door. 'Kuso!! I have to get out of here!' He started walking as fast a he could back to his own room, trying not to make a sound, without much success. The floorboards creaked under his weight every time he took a step. 'Kuso!' he swore again
He heard the door open behind him, "Oyasumi Gohan!" he heard Usagi whisper as she closed the door behind herself. Goku pressed himself against the wall in the shadows, hoping not to be seen.
Usagi looked up to see Goku, down the hall, looking like he was trying to push himself into the wall. 'How strange' she thought
"Goku?" she asked hesitantly
"H-hai, Ossu Usagi!" he said as enthusiastically as he could, stepping away from the wall.
"Ossu Goku, what are you doing out here in the middle of the night?" she asked. She noticed that he was only wearing his boxers, and blushed a deep red. Luckily, it wasn't visible in the dark hall. 'I better get out of here soon, I don't want to embarrass myself'
He put a hand on the back of his neck laughing slightly, as huge sweat drop formed as he tried to think of an excuse "Ano...I uh couldn't sleep"
She barely stopped herself from giggling. She could tell that he was lying, but she decided not to press the matter. "Same here Goku, I woke up after I had a really strange dream..."
"Strange dream?" 'I wonder....'
"Hai, anyways, " she sad while yawning and stretching her arms above her , "I feel better now. Oyasumi Goku!" she called out before disappearing behind her room door, rather quickly.
"Oyasumi Usagi" he replied as he watched her leave.
'Strange dream...' he thought as he returned to his room 'I wonder if her dream had anything to do with mine...Maybe I'll ask her tomorrow, that is if I remember to!' He then glanced down at himself 'KUSO! She saw my in my boxers!' he swore, 'I hope she didn't notice'
*~*With Usagi*~*
Usagi yawned again once she had closed the door to her room.
'I haven't felt this tired in a long time, well that what I get for fighting against evil' she thought as she climbed back into her bed. 'Kuso, I forgot to get that drink of water I wanted...Oh well, I'll live, I have to remember to talk to Michiko about the dream'
She lay her head back onto her pillow and allowed sleep to overtake her 'I wonder what Goku was doing up' she thought as she drifted into a dreamless, blissful sleep.
*~*End Chapter 6*~*
That's all for now minna-chan! Gomen, I'll probably revise it when I'm not sick anymore. I don't write very well when I'm sick.
I also have a new rule:
8+ reviews or no more chapters! I need reviews for encouragement/motivation! I thrive on reviews!
Also, I want to tell you about a vote that I'm going to have about the next Fic I should write. There are two parts to it:
1.) What kind of Fic should I write (Pick one):
-DBZ/SM
-GW/SM (although it would be unlikely, I keep on coming up with ideas and well, I never like them..)
-DM/SM
I only write crossovers, because in my opinion they're more fun to write.
2.) The pairings: Well, when it comes to sailor moon, I only really know about Usagi/Serena, so it's going to have to be with her.
I know I know, I promised to write a Trunks/Usa, but other people wanted so many other things, so I'm doing this vote to see which I should write first. I will get around to writing others, but I want to know what to do first (My head is swimming with ideas)
Email: lil_nighingale@hotmail.com
Or you can just leave a review, please vote!
A-A-ACHOO!! BAM! Itai! (I hit my head on the computer desk) *Rubs head* Doomo for reading!!
Tenshi_no_Neptune no.1- you misinterpreted what I said. I meant that I was happy after reading the good reviews, and that they made me feel better after reading all the flames. Make sense? hope so! =)

"Well, when I was younger, I lived in a beautiful and happy kingdom. Everyone there was happy, and never wished for a better life. However, one fateful day, an evil force destroyed our beautiful empire, and killed anyone that tried to protect it, including me."
"Demo, if you were killed, then how come you're here now?"
"Just wait and let me finish!"
"Oh, gomen"
"It's alright, well my Kaasan had sustained great power which she had used to seal away this evil. Demo, she was upset over my death, so using the last of her power, she sent my friends and I to the future where we were to live again and be happy. She had used too much power to save us, and she could no longer support her own life....so s-she d-died."
"You lost your Kaasan too?"
"Hai"
"Did you live with your tousan like me?"
"Iie, unlike you I didn't have a father. I never did in that time. A new family took me in, but I still knew that it wasn't the same as having your own family.
"Oh, I see"
"Anyways, while living with my new family, new dark forces started to attack, so I had to take my mothers place and power and fight them along side my friends"
"Like me and fighting with the Zsenshi"
"Hai, exactly. I hate fighting, I always had, but I learned it was necessary to protect the ones that I love. Demo, in the end, I c-could even do t-that" she choked on her words slightly as she thought of her beloved friends.
"Gomen nasi Usagi. You don't need to tell me anymore"
She forced a small smile onto her face "Gomen, I wanted to tell you the whole story. Perhaps another time, you will hear it all"
"Maybe, but you were right. We are alike in many ways"
"See I told you!" she laughed slightly. She glanced at the clock on his desk. 'wow, 12:30 already'
"I think I've kept you up way past your bedtime. You need your sleep if you want to be able to finish your studies"
"Heheh...I guess you're right"
Outside, Goku had heard everything. 'She's lead such a hard life, I wonder what she meant when she said that she couldn't protect the ones that she loved.'
He snapped back to attention once he heard footsteps nearing the door. 'Kuso!! I have to get out of here!' He started walking as fast a he could back to his own room, trying not to make a sound, without much success. The floorboards creaked under his weight every time he took a step. 'Kuso!' he swore again
He heard the door open behind him, "Oyasumi Gohan!" he heard Usagi whisper as she closed the door behind herself. Goku pressed himself against the wall in the shadows, hoping not to be seen.
Usagi looked up to see Goku, down the hall, looking like he was trying to push himself into the wall. 'How strange' she thought
"Goku?" she asked hesitantly
"H-hai, Ossu Usagi!" he said as enthusiastically as he could, stepping away from the wall.
"Ossu Goku, what are you doing out here in the middle of the night?" she asked. She noticed that he was only wearing his boxers, and blushed a deep red. Luckily, it wasn't visible in the dark hall. 'I better get out of here soon, I don't want to embarrass myself'
He put a hand on the back of his neck laughing slightly, as huge sweat drop formed as he tried to think of an excuse "Ano...I uh couldn't sleep"
She barely stopped herself from giggling. She could tell that he was lying, but she decided not to press the matter. "Same here Goku, I woke up after I had a really strange dream..."
"Strange dream?" 'I wonder....'
"Hai, anyways, " she sad while yawning and stretching her arms above her , "I feel better now. Oyasumi Goku!" she called out before disappearing behind her room door, rather quickly.
"Oyasumi Usagi" he replied as he watched her leave.
'Strange dream...' he thought as he returned to his room 'I wonder if her dream had anything to do with mine...Maybe I'll ask her tomorrow, that is if I remember to!' He then glanced down at himself 'KUSO! She saw my in my boxers!' he swore, 'I hope she didn't notice'
*~*With Usagi*~*
Usagi yawned again once she had closed the door to her room.
'I haven't felt this tired in a long time, well that what I get for fighting against evil' she thought as she climbed back into her bed. 'Kuso, I forgot to get that drink of water I wanted...Oh well, I'll live, I have to remember to talk to Michiko about the dream'
She lay her head back onto her pillow and allowed sleep to overtake her 'I wonder what Goku was doing up' she thought as she drifted into a dreamless, blissful sleep.
*~*End Chapter 6*~*
That's all for now minna-chan! Gomen, I'll probably revise it when I'm not sick anymore. I don't write very well when I'm sick.
I also have a new rule:
8+ reviews or no more chapters! I need reviews for encouragement/motivation! I thrive on reviews!
Also, I want to tell you about a vote that I'm going to have about the next Fic I should write. There are two parts to it:
1.) What kind of Fic should I write (Pick one):
-DBZ/SM
-GW/SM (although it would be unlikely, I keep on coming up with ideas and well, I never like them..)
-DM/SM
I only write crossovers, because in my opinion they're more fun to write.
2.) The pairings: Well, when it comes to sailor moon, I only really know about Usagi/Serena, so it's going to have to be with her.
I know I know, I promised to write a Trunks/Usa, but other people wanted so many other things, so I'm doing this vote to see which I should write first. I will get around to writing others, but I want to know what to do first (My head is swimming with ideas)

Or you can just leave a review, please vote!
A-A-ACHOO!! BAM! Itai! (I hit my head on the computer desk) *Rubs head* Doomo for reading!!
