Title: Fake Princess

Disclaimer: I own nothing except for my fanfiction. So if you steal it, I will be forced to murder you. J

Well, hello everyone! Thank you for your lovely reviews! I'm so happyful! And to answer Adyen's question, I have no clue as to what kind of fic I'm aiming to write. I suppose this would be comedy, drama, romance (later on), etc. Hey! I have an idea! You guys (all of you if you want) tell me what kind of genre would fit this fic and I just might put that on there too!

Now, for Trupana's coment, I'm not trying to make the senshi and Mamoru seem mean, they're just trying to protect and be nice to who they think is they're princess. And as for Sasho…that was very observant of you. But you are right, she does seem rather mean. But, later on you'll realize that she never really liked the senshi or Mamoru anyway. It's not that she was purposely trying to be mean…she just really didn't like them. She also thought they were kinda corny too, but you'll find out why she more later on in the chapters anyway. Oh and Uagi didn't necessarily put Sasho in charge. She was kind of…a distraction for the senshi. You'll find out later on in the chapters. I hope this little paragraph explained enough for you. J

Okay, so here's the fourth chapter! (woah, if I keep up the work I'm gonna have more chapters than ANW! And I've been working on that longer! ) Oh, and just to tell you this will have more than ten chapters probably… depends. Yeah, so anyway on to the story!

Fake Princess

"Hello?" An uncertain voice said. Silence greeted her so she tried it again, "Hello???" This time the sound of snoring could be heard. She sighed in exasperation. This was the first time that she was actually calling and the person she was calling chose this time to fall asleep! "Sasho! Get the hell up!"

Sasho awoke abruptly to the sound of yelling. She opened her eyes and found that the yelling was coming from her watch. For a second she thought she was hallucinating until she recognized the voice that was yelling. She bolted out of the bed and grabbed her watch. "Usagi-sama? Is that you?" she asked, even though she already knew the answer.

Usagi shook her head, aggravated. "It took you long enough!" She could see the little face of Sasho blushing a crimson red.

"Sorry, Usagi-sama. Where have you been anyway? Artemis and I have been so worried about you." Sasho said, tiredly.

Usagi smiled, her annoyance disappearing. But inside her she was troubled. Artemis? She thought, Sasho never calls Mizu-umi by his earth name…I wonder what happened. She didn't speak her thoughts to her friend though, she knew that if Sasho wanted her to know, she'd tell.

Sasho sat back down on the bed, happy that her princess was okay. "How is…the 'mission' going? Is everything okay?"

"Everything's fine but the mission isn't going over well. I haven't been able to find anything of use and if I keep up like this, I'm not going to be able to come back. Setsuna can only allow the time and dimension gate to be opened for a certain period of time, if I stay any longer the gate will close and I'll be stuck here until Setsuna is able to open it again."

Sasho was horrified but Usagi just laughed. "Don't worry, that won't happen, I'm sure." She said to calm her friend's fears.

"Okay…" she whispered.

Talking was heard in the background and after a moment Usagi began speaking again. "I'm sorry, Sasho, but I must be going now. I have been called to duty once again and they've just found something that might help us out. I'll try and call soon. Tell Mizu-umi that I said 'hi' okay?"

Sasho nodded, "Okay, good-bye. Be safe, don't get hurt."

"I won't, Sasho. I promise. Bye bye!"

In less than a second the connection was lost and Sasho sighed. "I mean it." She said, "Don't you dare get hurt. I couldn't live without my best friend." She was talking to herself, of course, but for some strange reason, Usagi got the message deep with in her heart.

***********************

For the next few weeks, Sasho heard from Usagi almost every day and heard very little from Mizu-umi. For some reason he stayed his distance and when he was actually around her, it was usually just because the senshi had called a meeting and he, of course, had to be there. The senshi were still very nervous and jumpy about every little thing, making Sasho want to pull out every inch of her hair.

Today, though, they were being particularly jumpy. They had already heard about Sasho's break up with the masked prince, they'd known for a long time. So, Sasho wondered why they were acting so strangely.

She leaned against the spot in which Usagi used to sit in and got very annoyed as she realized that everyone was looking at her again. "What???? Do I have something on my face? Am I growing an afro? What on earth is so frikken interesting?" She shouted angrily, as she had done so many times before. The senshi exchanged looks and Rei sighed. "I've been having some bad vibes for quite sometime now and I decided to consult the Great Fire just recently…" She hesitated to continue but Sasho gave her look pressuring her to go on. "What I saw was disturbing. I saw a vision of a large ugly monster and then I saw Usagi… the monster I saw is somewhere in between our dimension and another one.

The one Usagi is in…She thought. "So what are you saying, exactly?" She asked, dreading what they did think.

"We think that maybe… maybe Usagi has turned to the dark side and wants revenge."

Sasho literally fell backward. She wanted to slap them all silly at the exact moment… and probably would if she weren't laughing so hard. In fact, she was hysterical.

"What's so funny?" Minako asked puzzled. This reaction of all things was not what she had expected.

"Oh, whoo… um…nothing. I was…I was just *cough* just laughing at how…pathetic it would be for Usagi to do such a thing. More like how pathetic and incredibly stupid it would be for you guys to think such a thing.

They accepted her excuse and moved on, though Sasho was still giggling. "We've been trying to track her but she's nowhere in this dimension, so it must mean that the monster I saw is in connection to Usagi.

It is, Sasho thought, but it's a more different connection than what you think. "Perhaps you guys are taking Rei's vision out of context. Maybe there is a monster coming, that's very possible, but Usagi being a helper. Think about it, it's very unlikely."

They all agreed with that but they didn't say that. Instead Makoto said, "Hey, I know you're just trying to get out of fighting. I remember from the Silver Millenium that you hadn't been part of the senshi then. If you don't want to fight, it's fine."

Fight! Ha! Now we're talking! She smiled sweetly at them, "No, it's quite all right. I may not have been a senshi then, but I've fought and dealt with magic before." Well, it's not a complete lie.

Suddenly Mizu-umi, who hadn't been there before, came bolting up the steps to Rei's temple. "Sasho! I need to talk to you now." The senshi stood up, recognizing the urgency in the 'cat's' voice.

"What's wrong, Artemis?" Minako asked, concerned.

But Mizu-umi was not in the mood for acting like Artemis, he had to tell Sasho something important and it would be a waste of time to even try to come up with an excuse not to tell the senshi. He ignored the others and walked right up to Sasho. "Sasho, we have got to talk, now!"

"Right." She answered. She knew that when Mizu-umi acted this way he meant business. Something must be wrong. Then she felt like slapping herself. No duh, stupid. Without another exchange of words, Sasho and Mizu-umi were gone, leaving the senshi in the dust.

********

Well, I am finished. I have to go finish cleaning myself up and go to school now. Also, I might be changing the name to this fic. If you have any suggestions or like the title just the way it is, tell me, okay? Thank you!! Both for the reviews and the flame thingy… bye bye!!!
