About a week had passed since Luna had rescued Usagi, Ami, Minako, and Michiru from Queen Shi's palace. One day Usagi was sitting in a clearing in the forest. She stopped to pick a few nice flowers when she heard a rustle in the bushes. Usagi glanced up and when she saw nothing assumed it was a harmless animal. She sat down on the damp moss covered ground and began to pick the flowers. The noise persisted and soon Usagi was worried.
"Who's there?" she asked. No answer. "Show yourself!" Dead silence for a moment. Suddenly she heard a noise from behind her and then a war cry. She turned around to see one of the queen's guards charging up to her with his sword drawn. She screamed and ducked. There was a loud 'clink' but the sword did not hit her. She looked up and saw another person dressed in leather also armed with a sword protecting her. They appeared to be male and had short sandy blonde hair. She could tell they were having trouble holding off the guard by their labored breathing.
Suddenly they lifted their knee and hit the guard right where it hurt. He dropped his sword and collapsed to the ground. "Shit," the guard said.
"I suggest you leave unless you want more of that?" the person said.
"Damn you," the guard said and picked up his sword. He got up and and took off running. The person turned around and Usagi finally saw the face of her rescuer.
"Are you all right?" they asked and offered a hand to help her up. Usagi took their hand and stood up.
"Hai," Usagi said.
"You should watch out for those guards. They'll kill you before you can say 'kabu,'" they said.
"I hope you don't mind me asking but what's your name?" Usagi asked.
"Haruka," they answered. A boy's name. Her rescuer was defiantly male.
"Domo arigato Haruka-san," Usagi said.
"Your welcome Koneko-chan," Haruka replied and began to head back into the forest. "Jaa ne!" he called over his shoulder.
"Jaa ne!" Usagi called. She began to walk the other direction back to the cave. When she arrived Seiya was there to greet her.
"Back so late Odango?" Seiya asked.
"Gomen, gomen!" she answered with a nervous expression. He laughed a little.
"You haven't changed," he said. Suddenly there was a loud crash from inside the cave. Yaten could be heard cursing up a storm as he exited the cave, soaking wet. Minako poked her head out of the cave and looked inside a empty water bucket.
"Oops," she said.
"Oi..." Usagi said and sweatdropped. Suddenly Luna hoped out of a near by tree and landed on Usagi's shoulder.
"Usagi, you're back!" she said.
"Yeah, sorry it took me so long," she began. "I was attacked by one of Queen Shi's guard." A concerned expression began to appear on Luna's face. "But don't worry! I'm fine! A man with blonde hair and green-blue eyes saved me!"
"A man?" Luna asked. "Or maybe...a woman!"
"No, defiantly male," Usagi said. She glanced at Luna and Artemis who were pondering this and then at the Three Lights who all looked very nervous.
"What did I say???" Usagi screamed.
"Nothing Odango...nothing," Seiya said.
Nightfall came and it got very dark. Luna suggested that they not keep their fire going long since there were guards in the woods. They all agreed to go to bed right after it got dark. Later at about midnight Usagi heard a noise coming for outside their cave. She struggled to bring herself to full consciousness of her surroundings for a few minutes. Once she knew where she was she noticed something heavy resting over stomach. As she opened her eyes she realized it was Seiya's arm. She stared at him for a few moments and then blushed bright red. She concluded that in his sleep he must of accidentally flung his arm over her. She quietly got up and walked outside the cave.
"Hello?" she asked. Suddenly another guard charged at her with his sword. She grabbed a large branch and stuck it in front of her in an attempt to protect herself. She managed to hold him off for a few moments but the branch snapped. She managed to get out the way but just by a little. He charged again but all of a sudden Haruka jumped in front of Usagi. Usagi knew better then to stand and watch so she ran behind a tree.
"Don't make me fight you dirty like I did that other baka guard," Haruka said menacingly.
"Shut up you bitch!" he said and applied more weight to his sword which Haruka was just able to hold off.
"Fine, you wanna fight? Let's fight!" he said. He released his block and the guard went tumbling forward. As he did Haruka kicked him in the back. His sword clattered away and he stood up. The guard threw a punch a him but Haruka moved out of the way and kicked him in the jaw. He struggled to get into a standing position.
"Damn bitch" he muttered and wiped some blood away as it trickled out of his mouth. Haruka smiled.
"Now get out of here!!" Haruka said and threw a rock at him. He picked up his sword and fled as fast as he could. Usagi ran up to Haruka.
"Haruka-san! You saved me again!!" Usagi said.
"I figured they would follow you so I decided I need to watch over you for a while," he said and smiled.
"Domo ari-" but Usagi was cut off by loud scream from inside the cave.
"AAAAHHHH!!! IT'S THE DEVIL WOMAN!!!!" Seiya yelled at the top of his lungs.
"Devil woman?" Usagi asked. "But Haruka is a boy, ne?"
"Gomen Koneko-chan but I'm afraid your friend is right. I am a woman," Haruka said and smiled.
"Just as I thought," Luna's voice said from inside the cave. "Haruka Tenoh, soldier of the wind. " Luna emerged from inside the cave. "Haruka, you're a sailor senshi as well. You are a soilder chosen to protect our princess. Will you please stay here with us until we can find the rest?" Haruka though about it for a moment but then agreed.
Suddenly there was a loud yelp from inside the cave followed by Yaten yelling, "Get her off of me!!!" Everyone ran into the cave to see Minako, still asleep, with her head resting on a very sickened Yaten's stomach. He backed away and in the process kicked her head. Her eyes popped opened and she immediately sat up and hit him over the head.
"What was that for baka?" she asked.
"Because YOU were ON TOP of me you ecchi!!" he said.
"NANI YO?! Not on purpose!" she yelled. They continued to yell at each other while everyone else stood by and laughed, sweatdropped, or both. Usagi sighed.
"I guess I'll have to get used to this," she said.

OO; Wow that was violent. I didn't know I was capable of writing such a violent story. Maybe I should up the rating. If I have anymore parts like this I defiantly will. That part wasn't very dark, was it? I'm not to good at writing fanfics that are dark. They always turn out happy. However, I'm still very please with this part! Please R&R!!!
