Disclaimer: I don't own any of this....you know the usual routine, you don't own anything yet you don't want to be sued either...anyhow..start reading ;)

Note: Songs next to the Chapter Title is just music that....inspired me..or else I just thought it sounded good to blend with the chapter so everyone knows.

AN: I was told to make this more realistic. This confuses me though. Only reason is because to my knowledge, Sailor Moon is real to begin with, so why would I need to make this realistic? Like if it was possible to be Sailor Moon or anyone, I'd be Darien/Tuxedo Mask, but that doesn't make it real now does it? Anyone else have problems with the "unrealistic" features of an unrealistic story?

AN: Anyhow, I hope all Americans have a happy turkey day, and hope that Canadians had a good one in October. Sorry this came out so late, I really wasn't expecting to take this long.



Chapter 11 - The Mask Fell For All To See


When Tuxedo Mask collapsed, everyone gasped at the sight of who he truly was. Sailor Moon ran over to Tuxedo Mask. She started crying uncontrollably. Sailor Venus gasped at the sight of who he really was. It couldn't be, not him!


Sailor Moon: I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!

Tuxedo Mask struggling to speak: Don't be sorry, I would have gladly done anything to ensure your safety, as I'm sure your friends would have as well.

Sailor Moon: We've got to get him to a hospital, to the emergency room, anything!

Sailor Mercury: We can't. How can we explain this? There's no way.


Sailor Moon de-transformed back to Serena and cried. She knew it was true, but she knew she had to do something. Tuxedo Mask started coughing up blood, his clothes were already saturated with his blood from other cut. Then Sailor Mars came up with an idea.


Sailor Mars: We could go back to his apartment and fix him up, just have to get supplies.


They all went to his apartment in agreement. Mina was still too stunned to say anything, Serena felt incredably guilty for being responsible for such a thing to happen to him. Finally, breaking the silence, Lita spoke up.


Lita: I know you two are pretty shooken up by this, but he would have done this if he didn't truly feel that he had to preserve your safety, Serena. Mina, I know that this a bit close to home for you, but think about the bigger picture here, Serena finished off the problem here. He's going to be fine soon, you two!


They all stayed in the apartment the entire night. Possibly because they were concern about Tuxedo Mask, or maybe it was to assure each other that everything would be fine when they were together. Either way, they stayed. Mina stayed on the couch, she was trying to block out the images of what had happened. Serena was just at his bedside, mumbling incoherently and constantly repeating it.


Serena: I'm sorry, I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry, Darien.



--IceBlade - okay, I know it's late, but between writers block and other stuff, it's been hard to come up with a creative way of putting all this down, besides, I probably got most of you making voodoo dolls of me trying to kill me since no one knew who Tuxedo Mask was. Personally, I was split between having him be Darien and Andrew, so I flipped a quarter, so there ya go. Fate is fate! hehe..or just lucky =P But I thought of a really good idea for a new story, so I'm going to get started in that, and it has nothing to do with Super Powers or "unrealistic" things like that, so yay! ....moving right along...
