A Offer Hard to refuse

*Disclaimer* Notta own Sailor Moon or any of the scouts, I do own Kaze, her
mother and my dear friend Cat owns Megami this series of stories is for you
cat-chan!
'Where Am I?' Kaze was running. She wasnt sure where, but she was
running. The ground beneath her was blue and smooth. Like glass. She was
dressed as Sailor Neo Uranus and all around her, the place was in shambles.
Everything was destroyed, death and destruction hung heavy in the air. She
knew she was looking for someone or something. That was the force that kept
her running, running as if she must out run the wind. She knew that feeling
well. She always ran to out run the wind. All of the sudden, a black beam
grazed her shoulder. She turned around and fired an attack at the five men
chasing after her. The attack hit all but one, engulfing their bodies in a
bright light, then they disappeared. The one left sent another beam at her,
this time she easily dodged it and countered, her attack hitting him in the
stomach and making him evaporate as well as she continued her run. 'What is
going on?' She wondered as she came upon a large palace, the only thing
that was not destroyed. She knew somehow, that what she was searching for
was inside that palace.
She tried the large doors, but couldn't open them. Not being one to waste time, Kaze stood back. "Uranus Wind Smash!" She shouted, sending a ball of gold from her fingertips and into the doorway. When the smoke cleared the spot, a hole big enough for her to climb through was in the place of a door.
It was pitch black inside and when she looked down, Kaze discovered she could see herself in the glass floors. After giving a few moments for her eyes to adjust to the black ness, she began to walk through the palace, her footsteps echoing in the emptiness. Straining to see, Kaze came to a door and entered. At the end of a long hallway, there was another door. Upon entering that she thought she heard a woman scream. "Hello?" She called out softly, then repeated herself in her usual deep firm voice. At finding another door, she entered this and this time the room was illuminated by a single candle. It was a library. Books were up high on shelves but there didn't seem to be another door anywhere. But somehow Kaze knew there was another door and was certain what she was looking for was behind that door. "Can anyone hear me?" She called again, this time was answered by another scream. Suddenly her heart went to ice as she stopped cold in her tracks, her eyes clouding over with fear. "MEGAMI!" She shouted, her deep voice echoing in the room, as she recognized the scream. "MEGAMI! I'M COMING!" She yelled again, this time francitcally searching the walls for a door, a loud booming laugh interrupting her search as Megami screamed again, this only making the tall pink haired senshi search faster and more determined. Just when she was about to send an attack into the wall from frustration, her fingers lightly brushed a hidden doorknob. Grabbing it tightly she yanked it open, her heart stopping at the sight before her. Megami, only now was Sailor Neo Neptune, was tied up against the wall. Her hands were above her head and her feet were tied as well as her head hang slightly to the side. Kaze could see the blood trickling from a wound in Megami's head, her beautiful long ocean green hair clotted with blood and she had long gashes on her bare arms and legs as well. Kaze's emerald green eyes filled with tears as she noticed her and Megami were not along in the room. A man stood infront of Megami, blocking Megami's view so she couldn't see Kaze. Kaze saw the guy draw a knife. "NO!!!!!!!" She shouted but was droned out by Megami's own scream as the man slid the blade over Megami's pale throat.
Kaze awoke, sitting up in her bed in a sweat, breathing heavily. She looked around, appearing dazed, as she ran her fingers through her short pink hair. She still wasn't in her own room, Megami had insisted that she stay until she was completely healed from Hiroshi's assault. The door to the room opened and Megami stood, illuminated in the light from the hallway. "Kaze!" She exclaimed, flipping the light switch and hurrying into the room. "Are you alright?" She asked, holding her robe closed. Kaze had gotten a glimpse of the nightgown underneath and it was doing funny things to her insides. "Kaze? Are you alright? I heared you screaming from my room!" The green haired beauty said, the concern visible in her eyes. Kaze glanced around once more. Then nodded. "Y-yes, I just had a b-bad dream" She said, stuttering a bit. Megami had taken a seat on the bed beside Kaze, exposing more then a little leg. Kaze had long forgotten her nightmare as she had to remind herself not to stare at her friends legs like that. "Are you sure?" Megami asked, studing the senshi of the wind and kaze nodded laying back down. "Yes" She said as Megami raised to leave. "Uh, Gami-sama? You think you could stay with me, until I go to sleep?" Kaze asked, a little childishly and blushing furiously. The dream had frightened her a little, after all. Megami smiled a soft smile to her friend and nodded sitting down. Without thinking, Kaze layed her head in the other girls lap and closed her eyes. This brought a smile to Megami's face as she stroked her partners hair, Kaze soon falling asleep. "Just like a child" Megami mused to herself and when she was sure the other girl was sound asleep, she lightly kissed Kaze's forhead, covered her up and shut the light off. "Sweet dreams" She whispered, standing in the doorway and watching the other girl sleep for a few moments, then closing the door tightly behind her as she left.
The next morning, Megami roused Kaze out of a peaceful sleep. "C'mon Kaze-san, we have school today" She said, peering down into Kaze's face, the other girl moaning in protest. "You have fifteen minutes to be ready!" Megami laughed as Kaze sat up and rubbed her eyes with the back of her hand. "Ung" She grumbled, stumbling out of bed as Megami, who was already dressed left the room. "Fifteen minutes, sleepy head!" She teased on her way out.
Sure enough, fifteen minutes later, Kaze sauntered down the stairs, fully awake and fully dressed. Megami had just finished setting the two places at the breakfast table. "You look much better!" She exclaimed when Kaze took a seat. After serving her and Kaze, she took a seat across from the sleepy pink haired girl. "So, I was thinking, now that we're partners..maybe we should move in together, you know, to practice and all." Megami suggested, her eyes glittering happily as Kaze slowly chewed a piece of pancake. "I don't know..my mom..I mean..I'll have to think about it" Kaze muttered lamely. Truth be told, one, she knew her mother wouldn't like it and two, she wasn't sure if she could behave herself if she lived with Megami. Megami smiled, a little bit of disappointment in her eyes as she looked at the clock. "Well, let me know soon, we've got to leave now!" She said, ushering Kaze out of her chair and out of the door as they left for school.
That day at school, Kaze had decided to go home and talk to her mother about moving in with Megami. Since Megami had violin practice, Kaze insisted on driving her to that and told her when she picked her up in two hours, she would have her answer about the living situation. But before going home, she made a detour stop. Climbing out of the red convertible and parking it next to a familer yellow one, Kaze santured up to the race track, a few racers nodding hello to her. "Hey, have you seen Haruka?" She asked Radion, one of the mechanics. "Hey Kaze, yeah Haruka is back there working on her bike, it broke down during the test run today" He said with a grin as Kaze bowed "Thanks" She said with a small smile. She walked into the garage, not seeing anyone. For a second she thought maybe Haruka had left until she saw the blondes racing bike and a pair of legs sticking out from underneath it. She grinned. Haruka was usally down at the garage or at the beach with Michiru. "Ruka?" She asked. "Kaze?" Came the muffled reply and Kaze nodded, then realized Haruka couldn't see her. "Yep. Listen, I need to talk to you for a few mintues" She said, leaning against a wall, her hands jammed into her pockets. A few seconds later, Haruka came out from under the bike, a oil smudge on her cheek and her clothes and hands covered in oil as well. Kaze surpressed a laugh. When she had first become Sailor Neo Uranus, she had a huge crush on Haruka Ten'oh and had always admired her. "Okay kiddo. What is it?" Haruka asked, wiping her hands on an oily rag which didn't seem to clean her hands any. "Um, you know about Sailor Neo Neptune, right?" Kaze asked, looking into the blondes face. "Yeah, we all know" Haruka grinned, she knew Kaze was gay, and she thought it was ironic, since she, Haruka, who was the original Sailor Uranus, was also gay. "Yep and lemme guess kiddo, you like her, right?" Haruka teased her younger friend. Kaze blushed and nodded. Haruka was the one person she allowed to get close to her. "Yeah and the thing is, Im positive she's straight. And now she wants to move in together, you know, to practice.." She said trailing off. "And you don't know if you can handle it, right?" Haruka asked, finishing Kaze's though. Kaze nodded. "Yep, in a nutshell" She replied. "Well, I think you should do it. I mean, if its ment to be, it is, and if not, you can get a great friend out of it, right?" Haruka asked as Kaze nodded slowly, then looked up with a grin, "Your right Ruka-chan, as usual!" She exclaimed and Haruka grinned back at her. "Tell ya what, bring her over to mine and Michi's place tonight for dinner, alright?" Haruka offered and Kaze nodded, throwing her arms around the tall blonde. "Thanks Ruka!" She said, waving good bye as she raced back to her car. Now she had to talk to her mom, and Kaze had the idea that that conversation wasn't going to be as pleasant.
Pulling into her drive way, Kaze could see the living room light on. Slowly she trudged her way up the stairs. She was dreading this conversation, and she knew her mom would grill her on her whereabouts for the past two days. Entering the door her mother called out. "Kaze, is that you?" She asked in her usual harsh voice. Her mother hadn't always been like that, she just lost it when Kaze's father left them, and blamed it on the poor little girl. "Yes Mom" Kaze replied, walking into the living room. Her mother was seated on the floor, a wine bottle on its side, empty, next to her, another one clutched in her hand as she sipped from it. "Where have you been?" She asked, glaring at her daughter. As Kaze began to speak, her mother cut her off. "Spare me. Suzuki told me you were staying with some girl. Megami, right?" Her mother said as Kaze merely nodded. "You fucking dyke. You go and stay at some girls house for two days and don't call me, then you fucking come prancing back in here like nothing happened?" She asked, her eyes burning as she stood up and advanced towards Kaze. "Mom-I was in an accident an.." Kaze protested but was cut off. "God damned dyke, don't come in here giving me your excuses. Just tell me what the fuck you want then get out of my sight, you make me sick!" Her mom declared, bringing tears to the other girls eyes, but she refused to cry. Her mom would just make fun of her for it. "Mom, I want to move in with Megami" Kaze said, her voice strong and firm, but her insides shaking. "YOU WHAT? YOU WANT TO MOVE IN WITH YOUR DYKE GIRLFRIEND?" Her mother shouted, her eyes burning even more angrily. "Mom, its not like that, we're just friends!" Kaze argued. Her mother glared at her, then without warning, raised her hand and belted Kaze across the face, her punch was stronger then Kaze would have thought, and it sent the teenager staggering back a few steps, this time she couldn't help the tears from flowing as she rubbed her stinging face. "Mom." She said softly. "DON'T MOM ME! YOU CRY BABY DYKE, YOU ARENT GOING ANY WHERE! GET TO YOUR ROOM!" Her mother shouted. This time Kaze refused to be bullied. "No" She said softly. "What did you say to me?" Her mother demanded. " I said NO!" Kaze shouted, this time her mother smashed her fist into Kaze's nose with a sickening crunch. "DON'T TALK BACK TO ME, YOU WHORE!" Her mother shouted, Kaze crying harder, her nose bleeding. "Crybaby!" Her mother taunted, hitting her for the last time in the jaw as Kaze ran upstairs to her room, closing the door and locking it behind her as she sank to her knees, her nose and mouth bleeding a little, her face swollen, sobbing on the bed room
floor.
