Ahh! Gomen nasi, I've have been incredibly busy because of school.but I guess as the saying goes; better late than never!

*Michi appears with hands clasped together* SUGOI!! I actually got a review!

Me: Hai.

Mi: *sniff sniff* I feel so special now.heehee, SuGaR!

Me:-_-'' oh no.

Mi: *grins evilly* heheee nice suggestion there CORIPICAT!

Me: did you really have to encourage her?

Anyways, I received this interesting email, asking why I had timed everything to take so long.Ne, to be truthful, I'm not a strong believer of 'love at first sight'. Saa, I do believe it's possible, demo I'm one of those people that like to get to know someone better than actually just rushing it(it's been almost a month in my fic! ^^'') Also, I'm aware that I kinda forgot about Michiko (character, not cousin)..leave it to me to forget my own character..

I want to dedicate this chapter to the following reviewers for their patience and support:

*~* Chapter 23 *~*

War, something that everyone hated

Ano.correction, war was something that most people hated

Some loved it

Namely Vegita

Everyone had once again gathered at Capsule Corps in the afternoon, all wondering the reason why they had been called so un-expectantly to this meeting. None had expected the news of chaos's arrival.especially on such short notice. Everyone was needless to say speechless at Usagi's announcement.

"So we're just suppose to sit here and wait for this weakling?" Vegita asked, his tone taking on clear annoyance at the concept of waiting to fight.

Usagi glared slightly at him "Hai Vegita, we must. Don't underestimate Chaos's power, it's stronger than you'd ever think possible. It is the greatest evil that exists"

Vegita snorted as turned and left the room, "Tell me when that weakling is ready to fight"

They watched him leave as Bulma sighed "I don't think he'll ever listen" she commented shaking her head at her husbands attitude

"Daijoubu Bulma" said Usagi as she stood up suddenly. "Ne, I'm going out for awhile" she stated as she started walking out of the room

"Demo Usagi!" Gohan called out, stopping her for a moment "What about Chaos?"

Usagi smiled slightly as she turned and flashed a V sign "Don't worry about it. Relax for awhile. I'll return soon. Nothing will happen in a couple of minutes, ne?" turned and walked again, taking a quick glance to her side to see Goku beside his son, his eyes fixed on her as she left.

They all sat in an awkward silence as they heard the door close behind her. Goku walked in the same direction as Vegita had, which was the opposite way Usagi had gone. All remaining had the same question on their mind until one voiced it out

"Ano.what should we do now?" asked Yamcha

Minako smiled slightly as she brought a small pack of.

"Cards! Let's play cards!" she suggested enthusiastically

(An: remember in the previous chapter?)

*~* With Usagi*~*

Her mind was filled with her own thoughts, her worries about what possible outcomes there could be of this battle.

What if they lost?

What would it take to win?

Or what if someone died during the battle?

What if she never saw Goku again?

She groaned at the last thought, this was not the time to be thinking about him!

'Demo, you want to because there's something you still need to tell him' her mind argued

'That's why I left the building in the first place, to stop thinking about him!' she thought as a picture of Goku's happy smile appeared in her mind. His smile, his very presence was something that provided comfort and.

"Iie! I would not accomplish anything by telling him" she said out loud, driving those thoughts from her mind

"Telling who what?"

Usagi turned her head slightly, already aware of who it was

"Nothing Michiko"

Michiko frowned slightly as she walked around Usagi so that she now came face to face with her

"You're a bad liar Usa. I know that there is trouble within your heart, I can feel it as well as see it in your eyes. There is deep regret and sadness within them"

Usagi remained silent as she pushed her way past Michiko and walked away.

"You can run from your feelings Usagi, but you need to learn that one day they'll catch up to you."

Usagi paused as she turned back around to face Michiko

"I know you love him, and he feels the same about you" Michiko finished as she turned and walk back into the Capsule Corp building.

She was right. But what could she do? This love, this life that she now had was something she hadn't experienced in such a long time.

'That's it.' Usagi agreed with herself as she continued her walk

'If I survive, then I'll tell him'

Who knew what the fates had in store for her then?.

(did that sentence even make sense?)

*~* Someplace Dark and Scary *~*

They thrived in darkness, they consumed any light that found its way into their world.

They served and protected only one master

And that was Chaos, the ultimate evil that sought to give them freedom in the universe, to sever the boundaries that confined them here.which was why they served it

*~*

Chaos smirked as its army of darkness assembled before it, the numbers growing with passing seconds

"The time has come!" Chaos announced proudly "We will annihilate anything that stands in our way of conquering the universe!"

Growls erupted from the massive army as it continued

"Soon, oh so very soon, the world shall be plunged in darkness and you my loyal servants may cause as much torment and destruction as you have ever desired!"

'And Cosmos will die.' it thought as it ran a hand through its hair, long pink strands resting on its hand for a moment before they fell back to their places

'Wouldn't she be happy to see what surprises I have just for her'

Chaos raised its arms in the air, power surging around it as they disappeared from the darkness, and into the very light that they wanted to destroy.

*~*With Usagi*~*

She suddenly shivered, even the warm summer day couldn't hide the darkness that was concealed within in.

Usagi ran as fast as she could, her fuku appearing in a brief flash of light.

The time to fight had come too soon.

*~* At Capsule Corps *~*

"AH HAH! Beat that Yamcha!" Minako exclaimed as she lay her hand of cards on the table.

Yamcha looked up at her cards, and then at his. His hand could have beat hers, but then again, where was the fun in that?

"Alright! You win again Mina" Yamcha faked sighed as he threw down his cards upon the table

"YATTA!" she cried as she picked up the cookies that they had 'bet'

Anyone watching could see that he was lying, except for Minako that it. If one cared to observe, Minako's pile of cookies was getting larger and larger; most likely because she hadn't lost one game yet to Yamcha (^^'')

Yamcha watched as Minako happily munched on one of the cookies that she had won

'Kawaii' He thought as Usagi, or now Cosmos suddenly ran into the room. The smooth floor, making it difficult to stop, caused her to slide into the next room.

Everyone stood as she entered the room again, panting slightly from the long run she had just undergone.

"It's.Here." she panted between breaths. Her body straightened as she smoothed out her fuku, her expression serious as she continued to speak

"Gather everyone now. Chaos has arrived, and is waiting for us."

"I'll go get my tousan and Vegita" Gohan called out as he ran out of the room.

Few seconds passed as a voice suddenly roared "IT'S ABOUT TIME. WHAT DOES THIS PERSON WANT US TO DO, WAIT UNTIL WE'RE DEAD TO FIGHT US?! Which would be wise, seeing as how it has no chance against us now" Vegita finished as he entered the room with Goku and Gohan not too far behind.

Usagi waited, her eyes avoiding anyone else's as her expression was now fixed in concentration

"You all have once last chance to back out of fighting." she stated calmly as soon as everyone became quiet. She could feel the darkness increasing with every moment, making her sick to her stomach "I've said it once and I've said it again, you do not need to fight if you truly do not wish to." She looked up, her eyes scanning everyone present in the room.

She found determination written in their expressions, she didn't need a verbal answer to know that no one was going to back down.

'I only hope that I will be able to protect them all' she thought

"Very well" she said softly as energy swirled around them all

"Make sure that you take care of yourselves!" Bulma called out as they disappeared, leaving to fight for theirs, and everyone else lives like many times before.

(An: Gomen for such a poor attempt at humor.I thought I'd just try to lighten the mood.)

*~* At the Battle Field*~*

They all appeared at the same time, the sailor senshi all transformed into their fuku's, and the Zsenshi scanning the horizon for the enemy.

But there was nothing

"They're here" Usagi whispered, only loud enough for them to hear "I can feel them"

"Hai, so can I" agreed Rei as Ami brought out her mini-computer

She scanned the area, trying to locate Chaos's forces. A small beeping sound emitted from her computer as it located them, and her eyes widened at the sight.

"Minna! They're over there!" she cried as she pointed to the side.

Everyone diverted their gaze in the direction she pointed, their eyes widening in astonishment as the sky was suddenly consumed in darkness

It was as if the light had died in the sky

Laugher filled the air as a figure appeared over the horizon

(an: haha as if that's original)

"It's Chaos" Cosmos muttered "It's exactly like my dreams. The same baka laugher."

"So Cosmos, we finally meet.again.however this time, I have a more permanent body without the bother of another possessing it." Chaos said as it finally came into view

"Nani?" Cosmos breathed as she took in the figure before her

A tall slim figure

Clothed in a tight back dress

Dark red eyes

Ruby red lips

Long pink hair, as long as her own.

And two small buns perched atop of her head.

"C-chibi-Usa!" Cosmos cried in shock as she recognized the body that Chaos now possessed.

*~*End Chapter 23 *~*

*cowers* ok, that wasn't too great.and I wish I could have done better, but y'know school is talking up most of my time.

ALSO, there is an explanation for this whole Chibi Usa thing, so before you flame me, just wait until you see the reasoning in the next chapter!!

Gomen nasi for such a crappy chapter.I really cut out the romance, demo it shall return!

I promise I'll do better.

Baibai!

My rule: 8+ reviews or no more!

So go!

Review!

Onegai?

PS: Ano.it might be awhile before I get the next chapter out.I'm really bad at battle scenes..
