Yaten fell to her knees and clutched her stomach. She heard Usagi scream as she tried to stabilize her ragged breathing. She managed to look up at the two men that had attacked her. They were taller than she, which was no surprise given Yaten's height, and wore identical looks of disgust. *I guess they're not fans* She thought to herself.
"What the fuck is your problem?!' Usagi screamed, shoving the man, Yaten assumed, that had punched her. Pure anger flooded through her and poured from her eyes in menacing waves. The leader of the two hesitated slightly but scowled at her. "We don't allow freaks in our club." He spat in a disgusted manner.
"How DARE-" There was a loud crack as the man's fist connected with her jaw. Her feet left the ground and she was flung several feet into a wall-side table. The wood snapped in half and the rubble and chairs collapsed upon her prone body.
"USAGI!" There was a chorus of outraged yells and they ran to her. Yaten struggled to her feet, but a well aimed kick by the second man, sent her skidding across the dance floor. Usagi looked up from where she was dragging herself out of the mess and was filled with immense anger and adrenaline. "Yaten!" She yelled and leaped at the man.
Her patented 'Sailor Moon Kick' hit the second man straight on just as he turned to look at her. Blood poured from his freshly broken nose and stained his white shirt as he lay on the floor. She fell beside Yaten and shielded the battered woman's body with her own. Blood dripped from Usagi's arm, where a table nail had sliced her, and splattered on Yaten's chest.
Yaten's emerald eyes widened in shock as Usagi screamed out in pain. Yaten tried to get free of Usagi's grasp as the man continued to kick and beat her. Bruises already became visible in the changing lights of Area 61 and Yaten gasped in outrage at what these men where doing.
The other scouts tried to rescue them, but more burly men joined in and held them back. "That's it!" Haruka yelled in frustration as she beat another man down. She reached for her henshin pen, but Usagi's rasped voice beat her to it. "No." She yelled back at her Senshi. Her simple command stopped them from transforming, so trusting in her leadership were they. They were forced to watch their princess be harassed and to fend off the other attackers.
"Transform..." Yaten whispered to her protector. Tears welled in both their eyes, though each of a different kind of pain. Usagi's of the physical area and Yaten's of the psychological. "I...can't." Usagi whispered. She gave a small cry of pain and then her strength gave out and she collapsed atop Yaten. Determined to protect the green-eyed woman her arms slowly wrapped around her but held her tight. Yaten's cries of anguish raised above the loud and pounding music, but the band played on.
Usagi raised her head weakly and cut of Yaten's cries with a shaky kiss. The sound of glass shattering was heard as the leader slammed a beer bottle across Usagi's head. Her lips went slack across Yaten's and Usagi's body was limp above her. The man came at them again, and Yaten lashed out violently with her legs and sent him flying into a rack of chairs.
The rack wobbled and began to tip. Yaten, unable to release herself from Usagi's death grip, rolled over and shielded the unconscious Usagi beneath her as the folding metal chairs crashed down upon them.
The leader regained his feet and walked cautiously towards the unmoving pile. Suddenly chairs flew everywhere as Yaten burst free; hands clenched, eyes blazing. With an incoherent yell of hate she swung a chair in an arc before her. The cold, hard metal connected with the leader of the group with an audible CLANG! His body hit the concrete wall of the club, denting the wall with the force of his impact, and then fell to the floor like a limp rag doll.
Yaten picked up the same jagged beer bottle the man had broken across Usagi's head and ran at the man. The sharp, splintered glass edge was only inches from the unconscious man's face when Seiya and Taiki reached the hysterical Yaten. They wrapped their arms beneath hers and yanked her away. The beer bottle clattered to the floor and rolled to a stop against the pile of chairs.
Yaten gagged and ripped free from her sisters' grasps. Her heart pounded in her head like a drum and she couldn't breath. She furiously began moving chairs and chucking them out of her way. She spied battered cream flesh and grabbed it. It was Usagi's hand. Rei and Haruka joined her in seconds and between them they uncovered their princess. Her twisted and bruised body lay nestled in a nest of metallic chairs, unmoving.
Michiru was giving out orders before they'd even pulled her free. "Ami!" The younger woman nodded and ducked into the bathroom. Minako was already scrambling to find her cell phone in her purse, and Makoto was retrieving the first aid kit from the bartender.
"Mercury Bubbles.................BLAST!"
Translucent blue bubbles rained down on the club. They joined together in thickening clumps and became a concealing fog that shielded them from view.
"I need an ambulance!"
"Mars Make-up!"
"It's an emergency..."
"Jupiter Make-up!"
"Pluto Make-up!"
"I'm at the club Area 61"
"Uranus Make-up!"
"Neptune Make-up!"
"A fight broke out..."
"Saturn Make-up!"
"Healer Make-Up!"
"Two of my friends are really hurt..."
"Maker Make-up!"
"One of them is in critical condition..."
"Fighter Make-up!"
"Please Hurry."
The click of Minako's cell phone was inaudible amid the sounds of combat. At the fall of their leader, princess, comrade, friend, and love animal instinct had taken over them, and they inflicted damage to their enemies in a beserk manner. Minako was left in the corner to tend to Usagi until the ambulance arrived. Tears stung the blonde's eyes as she careful wrapped a bandage around Usagi's head to staunch the bleeding. Shattered glass had cut a thousand gashes across her hair and the blood pouring form them stained her silver tresses black.
Usagi's head rocked limply in Minako's lap and raked holes across the blonde's heart. The Senshi of Love simply couldn't understand "hate" and she found that she had started to sob hysterically. Her wet, salty tears fell with methodical rhythm onto Usagi's ashen face. The crimson of her blood mixed with the tears and turned into pink rivers that flowed off her face and onto Minako's lap.

"Wow! Are you Sailor V? You're my favorite!"
***
Words of the past flowed through Minako's inner ear and stung her like salt on an open wound. Her sobs grew louder and her tears doubled. Her tanned fingers brushed the hair from Usagi's stained face with shaking but soothing motions. Minako looked at her hand. It was sticky with blood. Her best friend's blood. Usagi's blood was splattered across her shirt and stained her pants. The horror and pain of it all made her bury her face in her bloody hands and weep uncontrollably.
The fog cleared as sirens became audible in the distance. The remaining Senshi circled around Minako and they watched her in silence as she cried. Even Uranus wept silent tears as they looked down in traumatic and terrifying anguish at their broke and bleeding leader. She was more than a leader or a princess to them. She was their ray of light in their darkness. Their one good thing at the end of the day. She was all that was good. All that was pure. All that was holy. She was their hope. And they wept.
Uranus de-henshined, and lifted Usagi into her arms. The others followed suit as paramedics burst into the club. The pattern of stars on Haruka's shirt was buries beneath the waves of crimson that seeped into the fibers of the shirt. The other women walked alongside her, feeling the need to stay with Usagi. Seiya held her limp hand and stroked it lovingly, while Michiru held her other. Ami tried to slow down her rapid bleeding and Hotaru started to heal her legs. Setsuna held her slack face in her hands and began to cry. Taiki tried her best to comfort the hysterical Yaten, while Makoto and Rei did the same for Minako.
The EMD's pulled her from Haruka's grasp and strapped her to a stretcher. They loaded her into the ambulance already calling the ER and shouting out her vital signs. Before any of them could even think of climbing into the ambulance to ride with Usagi to the hospital one of the EMD's slapped the doors shut. Yaten cried out in protest and launched herself away from Taiki and against the back doors of the vehicle. Her fists thundered painfully against the sturdy metal of the doors.
The engine revved to life and the ambulance took off down the street. Michiru and Rei grabbed onto Yaten to keep the distraught woman from chasing after the speeding vehicle. They huddled together beneath the milky light of a street lamp and cried. Each of them was stained with sticky crimson, and they couldn't stand to look at each other or themselves in such a state.
