I know!! I do NOT own Batman Beyond OR Sailor Moon. -_- It'd be nice if I did but I don't! Oh! Sailorruss who reviewed my story! Sumimasen minna-san had NOTHING to do with the story so that was an okay Japanese mix. Demo nanishiro {anyway}… Oh. One quick note! Kudasai means please! Oh and ouji means prince. I'm sure everyone knows all the other words by now, and maybe those as well. They're used in so many stories! Well. Enjoy my story! And thanks for reviewing and reading! ^_~

Chapter Six: Trouble Brewing

Usagi was asleep. Suddenly she found herself in the astral plain. 'What am I doing here?' she thought. Her mother appeared. "Usagi! You mustn't wake up!" "Nani?! Why not?" Usagi asked. "Because if you do, you will awaken evil. Then it will be the start of the Dark Millennium!" Queen Serenity said frantically. "IE! THIS CAN'T BE HAPPENING!! IT'S NOT FAIR!" Usagi cried. Tears began to form in her eyes. "Will I ever be able to wake up again?" "Only if the scouts can return your heart crystal to you," Queen Serenity said sadly. "I am sorry. I can do nothing to help you daughter. I have brought you here to the astral plain but you must never leave. Is that understood?" "Hai, Okaasan," said a very sad Usagi. 'I guess this is just where I'll stay.' A tear began to roll down her cheek.

"I can't believe it!" Haruka shouted. "They took her again!" "Obviously these people are not about to give up. They are very intent on having Usagi," Michiru stated. "What do we do now, Setsuna-san?" Hotaru asked. "We have no choice but to see what will happen. I don't think we can do anything," Setsuna answered. "Pluto…" a faint voice called. An image of Queen Serenity appeared. "I must talk quickly. Serenity is asleep and now in the astral plain. She mustn't be awakened until you have returned her heart crystal to her. If she wakes up before then, the evil power will over come her and she will befall to evil, creating the Dark Millennium." "Hai your highness," Setsuna replied. Queen Serenity vanished once again. Setsuna looked to the sleeping form of Terry on the couch. She walked to him.

"Terry! Wake up!" she spoke. "Hn?" Terry questioned when he was slowly awoken. "We must go now. We have to save Usagi! She is asleep and must not awaken until we have restored her heart crystal to her! If she does awaken, she will become evil and the Dark Millennium will begin!" Setsuna explained. "Alright. Let's go!" Terry suggested. The scouts all transformed and Terry suited up and they all tried to teleport. Terry had to lend extra energy for that, considering he had no powers and Sailor Moon was absent. The scouts landed, right outside the front gates of the Dark Palace. They all received weird vibes.

Dark Eye grew impatient. He wanted Usagi to awaken and for her to become his Queen so that the Dark Millennium could begin, but she seemed to be in a coma. "Keburi! Takano! What news do you have on our Queen?" Keburi appeared. "Takano is checking up on her right now, but she doesn't appear to be awake in the slightest. It's as though you can't reach her," Keburi informed. "What? Well. Try harder!! She must be awakened! Do you want the Dark Millennium to happen or not?" Dark Eye said impatiently. "Hai your highness, demo we may not have enough power ourselves to awaken her!" Keburi tried to explain. Dark Eye glared. Takano entered the room. "Your highness," she began. "Gomen nasai but she just isn't reachable!" Dark Eye stood up from his thrown. "SHE WILL AWAKEN!!" With that he stormed out of the room to where Usagi lay.

The senshi and Batman approached the gates. "It doesn't appear to be heavily guarded. We probably won't have trouble getting in. It's just the getting to Usagi part that will be lots of trouble. Think we can handle it guys?" Sailor Neptune commented, looking at her magic mirror. "We'll have to try," Batman said. "Right!" the senshi all agreed. "Uranus World Shaking!" The attack went soaring at the gates, breaking them open. "Let's go!" Pluto ordered. The scouts all rushed in. A youma appeared and attacked them. Batman threw one of his ropes at it tying it up. "Dead Scream!" The youma was vanquished and the senshi and Batman pressed on.

Dark Eye poured energy into Usagi, hoping she would awaken. "Come on!!" he shouted in frustration. "Why won't you wake up?!" He let out a growl and turned his attention to outside the room window. There he saw the senshi and Batman. "NANI?! KEBURI! TAKANO!" he roared. They both appeared. "GO! DESTROY THOSE MEDDELING PESTS ONCE AND FOR ALL!!" Keburi and Takano disappeared to fulfill their job.

A dark energy ball hit Batman in the back. A red energy ball hit Pluto in the back. They both fell to the ground. "Pluto!"  Uranus shouted. "Batman!" Saturn exclaimed. She quickly rushed to the two fallen friends, followed by Uranus and Neptune. Keburi and Takano laughed. "Pathetic fools!! To think you could even DARE to stop us! You won't get any farther than this point!" Keburi said, snickering. Takano added, "Yeah, so say sayonara!" They both shot out their energy balls again. "Silence Wall Block!" Saturn shouted. The shield protected them well. "Thanks Saturn. Now. We must get them out of here! We're not strong enough to move on!" Neptune pointed out. "Right!" Uranus and Saturn said together. Uranus, Neptune, and Saturn used what energy they had left to barely get themselves out of there. Keburi spoke. "You know this means we'll probably have to hunt them down. Master will not like this." Takano nodded her head. "Hai…"

After Setsuna had rested up some, she made a suggestion to the senshi and Terry. "I think we should call up the other senshi." "Nani? Are you kidding me? You know what they did to Koneko-chan!" Haruka protested. "I know, but we need their help if we plan to get anywhere! And besides. Rei never really betrayed Usagi-chan," Setsuna said. "All right, demo if they pull any tricks, I'll kill them for sure!!" Michiru glared at Haruka. "Haruka-chan! Lower your temper, kudasai." "Hn," Haruka retorted. This time Terry spoke. "Are you sure the other senshi can be trusted? Usagi told me all of what they did, for the most part, and she seemed rather upset when she talked about it." "I know. But there's nothing we can do. We need their help, if we are to save Usagi," Setsuna replied.

The other senshi were indeed contacted. Rei felt horrible that Usagi had left, and all because of Mamoru. Rei felt guilty as well. "Don't worry Rei. I think she understood that you never really wanted for that to happen. She knows it was Mamoru," Setsuna said over the communicator. "I hope she'll forgive me…" Rei said. Then she gave a faint smile. "I'll be there as soon as I can!"

The other scouts felt sorry as well for their actions. They never decided on another person to become their leader and it felt empty without Sailor Moon. They missed her. "We'll be there too!" Makota, speaking for the other inner senshi, said. "Good," Setsuna said. A couple days later, all the inner senshi arrived at the outer senshi's apartment.

"So what do we plan to do to save her?"  Minako asked. "There really is no way to tell. We can't really make many plans. Every time we go to battle, something changes and we're never really prepared. Just expect anything scouts," said Setsuna. "Alright! So when do we head out to save, Usagi-san?!" Makota asked. "Shouldn't we at least plan something?"  Ami asked. "Well. We have decided to try and take out these two minions Dark Eye has," Haruka said. "If we can take them out, we might manage to get closer to saving Usako." "Alright. Sounds good to me!" Minako said. "Yeah," Rei agreed, rather quietly.

Usagi was bored. 'What am I supposed to do here? There's nothing to do! I so wish I could wake up!' Usagi thought. Suddenly someone appeared in the mist that was off in the distance. Usagi gasped. "Who's there?!" she demanded. "Where the heck am I?!?!" the person called out. The voice was familiar. "Terry?!" Usagi exclaimed. "Huh? Usagi?" Terry stated confused. "Hai. What are you doing here?" Usagi asked. "Where is here?" Terry asked in return. "The Astral Plain. You must be asleep or something. But that still doesn't explain why you're here. Only loved ones and close friends could ever come here," Usagi said. "So I'm not that good of a friend, huh?" Terry teased. "Hn," Usagi said. "I didn't mean it like that!" "Well. I don't know why I'm here," Terry said. "I wonder…" said Usagi. "Usagi. Wondering as always." Queen Serenity said as she came through the mist. "Terry is close. Can't you read your own heart, silly?" Usagi blushed. "Nani do you mean??" Terry made a look of confusion. "Well Terry. I'm surprised of you. I thought you were starting to feel something towards my daughter as well. You once did you know," said Queen Serenity. "Nani? I did? Demo how? When? I don't remember anything like that!" Terry said. "Back on the Moon Palace. You were a royal guard." Queen Serenity waved her hand and Terry and Usagi were back on the Moon. "Wait a second…" said Usagi. "This seems familiar." "Oddly enough, hai it does," Terry stated. Suddenly they saw themselves running around. Usagi was giggling away and Terry was chasing after.

"Can't catch me Terry!!" Usagi said and ran away, her white princess dress billowing in the wind. Usagi hid around a corner and when Terry came by, she pounced on him, both falling to the ground. "HA! I got you instead Ter!" Usagi proclaimed. "Okay, okay! Now can you get off me?" Terry said. Usagi giggled some more. Terry gave a slight frown. "Oh come on! What ever happened to having fun??" Usagi said. Terry moved and got Usagi off him. "Yeah, yeah," he said. Usagi frowned. "Am I no fun?" she asked, giving pouty eyes. Terry tired not to let them get to him, but they did. "Oh Usako. You know you and I have fun!" Usagi smiled. "Yay!" Terry gave her a small peck on the cheek. Usagi looked at him and blushed. Suddenly Usagi and Terry were back in the Astral Plain.

"Okaasan. Nani does this mean?" Usagi questioned. "You two once fell in love silly! That's when it all began. Terry died protecting you, unlike Prince Endymion," Queen Serenity answered. "All this time I thought he had. Until he betrayed me that is…" Usagi said. Terry walked over to the queen. "So what does this mean?" "Well. You two can finally be together. I remember overhearing Usagi talking to the senshi once that she loved you. Back then though it was custom for a hime to marry an ouji." Queen Serenity frowned. "I only wish you two could have been together. Demo now you can be. So be happy!" "Right, Okaasan!" Usagi said. She looked to Terry. "Right?" He nodded and said, "Right."
