Author's notes....
Hey minna! Sorry it always takes me so long to get parts out ^^; I've been low on ideas lately Incase you can't tell, I'm a huge Fushigi Yuugi fan so this is turning out a lot like Fushigi Yuugi. Oh well. I really like it so far. Incase you've forgotten, we only have one more soldier to go and that would be...MAMORU!!! The only problem-he thinks he's supposed to kill Usagi. How's that for screwy? I'm not totally sure what gonna happen in this part but...yeah ^^ no spoiler here -_-v Oh, and sorry to all the Usagi/Seiya fans. I was originally gonna make this a U/S but I don't know how I would do that. Gomen Besides, as much as I like the U/S pairing I just can't seem to make myself write that (it's from my days of being a U/M supporter ). Plus I've gotten a lot of reviews saying that people would prefer Usagi/Mamoru (I guess this is a U/M fic then heh heh) Okay, now that my author's notes are the full length of the story I will shut up.

"When he remembers me..." Usagi repeated. She ran her hand over the bandage on her arm.
"Daijobou Usagi-chan," Mako said and rested her hand on her friend's shoulder. "Mamoru will come back."
"I suppose but still..." she trailed off.
"Cheer up Odango!" Seiya said. "And if he tries to hurt you again we won't let him."
"Hai!" Usagi said and reverted back to her normal peppy self.
"Until then do you think it would be a good idea to make sure Usagi is with someone at all times?" Ami suggested.
"That would be good," Taiki agreed. They all agreed that either Haruka, Mako, or one of the Starlights should stay with Usagi.

Back at the palace Mamoru was reporting to the queen. "Mamoru, did you kill Sailormoon?" Queen Shi asked.
"No madam. I couldn't" he said and bowed. "I was stopped by another one of her protectors."
"I see. Well, I trust you will do better than the other soldiers did," she said.
"I swear I will," he said. He stood back up and walked out of the throne room. Sailormoon, what a bother. She should just die for kissing him like that. Her words flashed through his memory.
"I'm just now regaining my memories, but I remember your face and everything about you. I...I love you Mamo-chan!"
Dammit! He had to stop thinking about her. He had to kill her quick or her words would NEVER stop bugging him. But there was still her child like charm. He couldn't resist her. He had to kill her, or else...

It was dark out. Dark and rainy. All the senshi had gathered in the cave. Usagi sat huddled in the corner hugging her knees to her chest. Seiya sent a worried glance in her direction. I was painful to see her with Mamoru but he hated seeing her so depressed.
"Cheer up, Odango!" Seiya said. She lifted her head for a moment but then set her chin back down on her knees. "We'll get Mamoru-san back soon."
"It's more likely he will come back to us," Ami said. "Since he spent a good deal of time with us his memories should start coming back."
"That's right," Rei said. "Daijoubu Usagi-chan! Mamoru will come back and when he does we'll keep him here."
Usagi muttered some muffled words that no one could understand. Usagi found no comfort in anyone words. In her past life she had only want to be with HIM. She wanted him to be with her again. She lifted her eyes for a moment. They met with Seiya's. He looked very worried. He had said he was never in love with her but still...
Soon it got late and all the senshi decided to turn in. Usagi glanced out the opening of the cave and past the waterfall that hid the entrance. She couldn't see the the moon.
Morning soon arrived. The weather began to clear and everyone trampled out of the cave into the muddy ground. Well, almost everyone. Usagi was too depressed, Seiya was too worried about Usagi, and Yaten who was just to bishonen in general. After lots of persuading and some violence Yaten was finally dragged out of the cave into the now semi-dry forest. That left Usagi and Seiya alone in the cave.
"Odango?" Seiya said. "Are you okay."
"Hai," she said. He could tell she wasn't. He walked over at sat by her.
"We'll get Mamoru back. Don't worry too much. We don't like to see you-"
"We?" Usagi asked cutting him off. "We? Or do you mean I?" Seiya paused for a moment. He opened his mouth to say something but no words came out. "Seiya, I know...I know you were in love with me." She looked up at him.
"Odango I-"
"I'm sorry," she whispered.
"Sorry?" he repeated.
"I'm sorry Seiya. I like you a lot. You're really nice to me. I appreciate that you worry about me so much, but I can't help it. I only see you as a friend."
There was an silence between the two senshi. It wasn't awkward, it wasn't sad, it was just...silence.
"Daijoubu Odango," Seiya finally said. "It can't be helped. I know you're in love with Mamoru."
"But..."
"Don't worry. I'll be fine."
"Okay..."
Seiya stood up and walked out of the cave. Mako was standing over a kettle cooking something that smelled good, Minako and Yaten were arguing over something, and Hotaru was talking to Setsuna about something. It was just like old time. Only he was missing. He wanted Mamoru to be back for Usagi's sake. Suddenly there was a rustle in the bushes. Just a small one. It grew louder and louder. Mamoru walked out of the brush surrounded by about twenty guards.
"Dammit! You again!"Haruka exclaimed.
"I'm back. Where is Usagi?" Mamoru asked.
"She's not here," Mako said.
"Really..." Mamoru said menacingly. "Attack them." The other guards ran toward the senshi with their sword. Since there were only eleven senshi some people had to take on more than others. Out of the corner of his eye, Seiya saw Mamoru walk behind the waterfall. "Dammit!" he cursed mentally. After forcing his way through the guards he ran into the cave. Usagi was cornered by Mamoru, but she did look scared as she had when she was attacked by the other guards. She was staring at him with a very serious expression that was hard to read.
"If you have to kill me," she said and stood up, "then kill me. If it's you I'm not scared."
"Odango! Matte!" Seiya yelled. He took a few steps forward but couldn't go any closer. She wouldn't let him. Mamoru picked up his sword. He readied himself to kill her. Usagi dropped her arms at her side. She was ready for this. If her love was the one to kill her, she didn't care. Suddenly there was the swift movement of a sword. The flash of metal in the dim light. Some quick foot steps clatter across the cave. There was the noise of cloth and flesh being pierced. Some red specks of blood fell onto the ground. There was a thud and then the sound of a sword being dropped.
"SEIYA!" Usagi screamed.
