"On today's 10 o'clock news," Began the reporter. "We will talk about..."
"Usagi! Time for bed!" Called Mr. Tuskino.
"OK Daddy!" Usagi walked out of the kitchen where a half-empty pie stood in her hands. Her mouth was covered with blueberries. "Anyone want the rest?"
Shingo laughed. "Not anymore!"
"Go ahead, dear..." Mrs. Tuskino sighed.
"Just hurry." Her father added.
"Hurray!" Squealed Usagi.
"Usagi, please be quiet. I'm trying to listen to the news."
"What's so important about this one?" The mother asked her husband.
"It's the one with that mystery killer in it - the one from Akita. Supposedly, he's now in our area!"
The reporter pointed to some maps. "The murderer has been located in..."
* * *
"...many parts of Europe; the United States; Australia; Akita, Japan ; and Hong Kong, China." He continued.
"Hmm...I wonder who it is?" Remarked Michiru.
"Who?" Haruka asked.
"The Pure Heart snatcher on the news."
"They say he has been at it for nine years." Added Setsuna.
"You think he's a spy?" Asked Hotaru.
"Probably. The ocean is restless again. Something big is going to happen - soon, too." Michiru sobered.
"The assassin has been identified as a Sailor Senshi by the officers Lieutenant Seishou, Hidama and Captain Seidan, Hinshi. The physical characteristics are..." The reporter added.
* * *
"Short gray hair, a gun, and a silver skirt and blue-bowed uniform. This person is considered extremely dangerous and..."
Ami typed up the information in her computer. [You never know when stuff can be useful.]
"Ami. Letter for you. It's a postcard from your father." Her mother slipped the card into her hand, then left. [Ever since she got that thing, her life had changed drastically. If only I could be there for her instead of just watch her slip through my fingers. But how can I help when she won't tell me what's wrong? Maybe I just don't understand her...]
"...should not be made contact with at any time for any reason. Over two hundred deaths has been accounted for..."
* * *
"...and many more can still be out there. The killer has been recently spotted in the Tokyo area and..."
"Sounds bad, Artemis." Minako propped herself on another cushion and laid one down for him.
"Yeah. I don't know any Senshi that would deliberately KILL and innocent person. Unless she's under a spell." Artemis shook his head and sat on the pillow.
"How could someone live with himself after all that death he's caused!"
"SHE." He corrected.
"Whatever!"
"Maybe she had no other option. Like Uranus and Neptune."
"But they RETURNED the Pure Hearts they didn't need!"
"True..."
"...has no known accomplices. We are not sure at this time if the Soldier is good or evil but..."
* * *
"...we do know that she is ruthless. We suggest..."
"Hmm...I'd better call Rei." Remarked Makoto. "She'll want to hear this." She dialed the number to the Hikawa Jinja.
"Hikawa Jinja this is Rei. How can I help you?" Asked a sleepy voice.
"Hi Rei! This is Makoto. Please come over to my place. There's a news report I want you to hear. I've recorded the rest, but I running out of tape." Makoto explained.
"OK! Anything to get away from Wacko Grandpa!"
"I HEARD THAT!" Yelled Grandpa Hino.
"Oops... well, I'm on my way. See you there!"
"Bye!" Mako-chan said and hung up.
"... that if you DO meet this person..."
* * *
"...to try and head toward the nearest populated area or Police Station."
"Another enemy? Or another ally?" Wondered Mamoru. "It doesn't look good either way." He got up and walked into the kitchen. [What about this Kaylyn though? Can I even trust her? She could be an enemy. But yet she helped me and she didn't need to, either.] He rubbed his tired eyes. [Maybe I can get some sleep tonight.] Walking over to the TV he shook his head. [I doubt it.] He pressed the 'OFF' button.
"If anyone has any available data about him, please contact..." CLICK. The TV was turned off. He walked into his room and prepared for another restless night.
* * *
"...Lieutenant Seishou, Hidama; Sargent Kokuou, Okugi; or Captain Seidan, Hinshi of the Japanese Police Force immediately. That is all the information we have today, we'll keep you posted. This is Satsuki Hitoshi signing off. Sayonara and good night!"
Okugi watched the news broadcast through a shop window along the street. [Hmm... I wonder if 'he' is going to attack again tonight. He, he, he... Probably.]
Suddenly, Rei passed him. She was heading in the direction of Makoto's apartment.
[It's her - the one that got attacked. I wonder what she's doing out so late. Speaking of which, maybe I should get out of sight, too.]
* * *
"Akuma! Find this person!" Clotho ordered. The Akuma Stone obeyed and soared toward the next target.
* * * The Next Day...
'Please...' A voice whispered, 'Help me...'
Mamoru glanced around for her. It was foggy, he couldn't see. Suddenly, Kaylyn was there. She reached a hand out to him. It beckoned him to follow her.
'Endymion... please... free me... please...' Her voice pleaded to him, 'help me... they are coming... they will destroy us... help me... I can stop it... please...' Darkness engulfed her. 'Sage... will kill her... she will die...'
"Please! Don't let it be Usa!"
The scene shifted as he was again foreseen the future.
Princess Serenity summoned her powers. The Senshi screamed and pleaded. Begging her not to use the Ginzuishou's power. "Don't worry!" she said, "It is the only way."
A shadow loomed over her and laughed saying, "You think you can beat me with that tiny ROCK?! Ha, ha, ha, ha! Fool!"
"Ginzuishou! Please! Give me strength!" Serenity called to it.
The shadow reached out its claws, tearing her apart.
"Nnnnooooooo!" Tuxedo Mask screamed in pain. "Usa!"
"Aaaahhhhh! Uuussssaaaa!" Mamoru woke up shivering with fear. [No... it can't be! I won't let Usa die. I won't! I love her! Usa! I promise I won't let you die!]
* * *
"Luna?" Asked Usagi. A tinge of worry added to her voice.
"What is it?" Luna noted Usagi's concern.
"Has something happened to Mamoru?"
"I don't understand."
"He's been acting strangely. I'm really worried about him. He's very quiet. I don't think he's been getting much sleep either. He's almost always beside me. And when HE isn't, Setsuna is. I think he might have a new girlfriend!"
"How could you even THINK that! You know that's not true!" Luna scolded her fiercely. "And as for the weirdness, how about if I keep a watch on him? OK?"
"You would?! Oh, Luna! Thank you!" Usagi's eyes lit up with relief.
"I don't think it's really important, but I will if you want."
* * *
He checked the officers again. [Good. Out cold. I don't have a lot of time, I'd better hurry. ] He walked over to the main computer system. [Let's see...]
Two figures noticed the intruder.
"Look! An intruder." Whispered the first.
"Who is he, Hidama?" Asked the second.
"I don't know. I can't see. I wonder what he wants."
"Let's watch and find out."
He pressed buttons on the keyboard. "Idiots. They don't have a very good security system. This is too easy. Ah... hear we are! " He slipped out a CD disk and pushed it in its player. "Now all I need to do is copy, erase, and leave. Easy!"
The computer screen showed many files. Some included the Senshi. One wrote:

"He wants the Senshi Files!" Gasped Hidama. "All our hard work...!"
"Why?" asked her partner.
"Let's see... Who's left?" He tapped some more buttons. "Hmm...Starlights? Tuxedo Mask? Sailor Chibi Chibi? Whatever." The information was brought on the screen:

With the Senshi Files erased and the only copy in his hands, his work was complete -for now. It was time to leave. He walked out of the building. The policemen would wake up in about twenty-sum minutes. Enough time for him to get out safely.
"Hey, stop!" Hidama yelled.
"Uh... let me think about it!" He jumped in surprise, but managed to counter: "Sorry! No can do!" He raced toward a dark ally. "Bye!"
"Stop!" It was too late. He was too far away.
* * *
"I think we should keep an eye on those Lieutenant Seishou and Captain Seidan people." Remarked Setsuna.
"Good idea. They may know more about this new Senshi." Agreed Michiru.
"I wonder who she is?" Haruka asked.
"I wish I knew."
"What about that Okugi fellow? He's pretty secretive."
"There's something disturbing about him. I think he was possessed. Or is working for the enemy. I sense evil from him."
"Hmm...Another sign."
Setsuna looked out the window. [I wonder... Kaylyn... you were helping Mamoru. Weren't you? I know you want to help. I want to also. But we half to be patient. We will meet again, friend.]
* * *
After the escape at the police station, he had gone straight back to his apartment. All that running had tired him out. But he had to do this. It was his job. He pulled out his student ID from his pocket. It read:
KOKUOU, OKUGI
Born: May 9/ Taurus
Blood type: B
Age: 18
School: Hikawa Academy
Okugi closed his eyes. He remembered his orders, still vaguely clear in his mind.
The woman spoke with such sincerity, that he'd agreed to her terms.
"What must I do?" He had asked.
"Find the Lunar Heart. At any and all cost. You must NEVER let it get into the hands of the enemy."
"Who are you?"
"Me...? I am..."
The sound of the phone broke his daydream.
"Hello?" Asked Okugi.
"It's me. Have you found it?"
"No. I'm really sorry. I think it's time I started participating in those Sailor battles. Even if it will be in secret. I will find it. No matter the cost. Even if I have to destroy the entire world to find it! I promise."
"Let's hope so. The enemy keeps getting in the way. If we don't hurry they will find it before us. Don't let that happen."
"Yes Ma'am. I won't."
"Good." The receiver hung up.
