updated, but this chapter is going to be long. I promise!

CHAPTER SEVEN
*-*-*-*-*-*-*
**********
Amy
**********
The group of ten girls, and Artemis, sat in a circle in Raye's room
in the temple. In the last few years, Serena had shaped into a
royal figure and took to presiding over their meetings. Calling
everyone to order, Serena said, "We need to figure out the
significance of this new enemy. They look like the youmas we used
to face when Beryl and Pharaoh 90 were around."
Raye sat up. "For all we know, this could have been a random
attack."
"It could have something to do with the rebirth of Mercury,"
Michelle piped up. They all would figure it out eventually, and by
the blush on Amy's face, some had already figured out why.
"Read your fire, Raye. It'll only tell you what Michelle just
said," Amy explained, the blush deepening on her face.
Wiggling her eyebrows suggestively, Raye said, "It might even show
me how Mercury was reborn."
"The planets were only to awaken when the queens had found their
kings and were able to rule," Luna said. Flipping her black hair
over a shoulder, she added, "That or they finally found their
soulmate."
Seriously looking Amy over, Mina blurted out, "You slept with
Robert, didn't you?"
Amy looked away, blushing an even deeper shade of red. "I don't
think that's any of your damn business."
Luna looked sternly at the other girls; although she had shed her
cat persona, she could still bring the girls to attention when it
was needed. "We can worry about how Mercury was reborn later.
Right now we need to return to the matter at hand."
"Luna's right," Artemis said, putting an arm around Luna. "This
enemy could prove to be the toughest yet."
Serena said wryly, "They always are."
Michelle nervously twitched in her seat. She knew they would have
an advantage if she invited Robert, but there was Amy to think of.
Amara looked at Michelle. The way she was twitching, you just knew
that she wanted to help. Amara leaned down and asked, "Since when
did you become a team player?"
Michelle leveled her gaze on Amara. "Ever since Maris and Alan
slept together."
Amara's eyes went wide in shock. "Does she know that he's..."
Michelle shook her head. "Nope, he doesn't want her to be
confused."
"Maybe we should tell them. I'm sure they'd like another player,"
Amara said, placing a kiss on Michelle's brow.
"Maybe you should tell them, Michelle," Trista said from across the
room. "It doesn't make any difference. You should probably leave
out your source, though."
Serena gazed at the threesome. They could be damned secretive
sometimes. "Go ahead and tell us, Michelle. Especially if Trista
says it's alright."
The room grew quiet as ten sets of eyes pasted on Michelle. Looking
at the floor, she squeaked out, "There's a Tuxedo Neptune."
"Could he really help?" Amy asked, looking expectantly at Michelle.
"Yes, but I need to talk to him first. He might just decide to hide
out on the sidelines."
"Go ahead and call him, Michelle. Tell him he can transform if he
wants to hide his identity," Serena said as she stood up to allow
Michelle to pass.
Michelle looked at Serena and said, "You might want to call Darien
over here, too. It'll prove interesting to say the least."
**********
Robert
**********
"You did what?" Robert asked into the receiver.
"I told them about Tuxedo Neptune," Michelle said with an
exasperated sigh. This was one of the reasons she didn't want to
tell him. She knew he'd go ballistic. "Don't worry. Serena said
to have you come over in your disguise."
"That won't be a problem, but I can't stay away from Amy. She'll
figure out who I am in a New York minute." Michelle could hear both
fear and longing in his voice.
"Why would that be a problem? She obviously feels something for you
if she gave you her virginity," Michelle said bluntly, trying to
get him to snap out of it.
Robert groaned and said, "Thanks for reminding me. Now, she'll
really know who I am." Pausing, he said, "Give me a few minutes.
I'll be over and transform."
He heard Michelle agree, then hung up. Running a hand over his
face, Robert wondered how he had gotten into this mess. 'Easy,' he
answered himself, 'you got involved with Amy.' Moving toward his
balcony, he pulled out a transformation rose. Calling, "Neptune
Rose Transform!" he stepped out onto his balcony and leaped from the
different rooftops to Raye's temple. Once there, he landed as soft
as he could to access the goings-on inside.
"Can we trust him?" asked a sharp voice.
"Of course," he heard Michelle and Amara's voices answer.
"I think we should let Amy handle it," a low voice said from a
corner.
"Well, we all know how she would handle it," said a bubbly voice.
A group of girls started laughing at that. Over the din, he heard
Amy say, "Just because Mercury's been reborn, that doesn't make me
the whore of Babylon!"
Slightly chuckling to himself, Robert stepped out of his hiding
place and stood on Raye's porch. Softly knocking, he asked, "Did
someone call for Tuxedo Neptune?"
The door opened and a young woman in priestess robes greeted him.
Her eyes widened a little bit, then a smirk crossed her face. "Oh,
Amy," she called over her shoulder, "I believe someone is here to
see you."
**********
Amy
**********
Amy looked up and saw the one man she never thought she'd see after
the millennia they had been apart. "Alan?"
He gave a curt nod at her question and turned toward the rest of the
group. "Brenna said that you needed help. I'm here to help." He
conjured an aqua rose and handed to Amy. Leaning down, he whispered
softly in her ear, "I loved Maris and I love you, Amy." He looked
into her eyes and added in a whisper, "Far more than he ever could."
He got up, leaving Amy stunned. He felt so familiar and so strange
at the same time. By now he had turned away from her and was
talking to Serena. Amy stood up and reached for his hand. He
offered no resistance when she took his, he even squeezed it
affectionately. She leaned into his shoulder and breathed in his
scent. God, he smelled just as she remembered; just like he had a
wild night with the love of his life. Her.
He pulled Amy outside and looked at her. Pulling her into his
chest, he said, "I want so much to tell you who I am. It'll take a
while, but soon, Amy, and you'll know all my secrets." He tilted
her chin up and kissed her like she had never been kissed before.
She loved Alan, but that didn't explain why her heart was breaking.
She pulled away from him and wiped the tears off her cheeks. He
didn't need to see them. "Come, let's go inside. Maybe Darien has
come."
He meekly followed and only said, "Maybe."
Amy took Alan's hand and led him back inside the temple. It was
going to be hard with the girls muddling everything up, but
everything would work out, she hoped. She kissed his hand and sat
him down beside her as they waited for Darien. She whispered to
him, "I'm seeing someone else right now."
He softly smiled, "I know."
Amy wanted to ask him what he meant, but Darien had walked in and
Alan was on his feet. "Endymion, you sly devil, how have you been?"
Darien flashed one of his famous cocky smiles and gathered Serena
into his arms. "I've been busy keeping her happy. You?"
Alan glanced back at Amy and smiled. "I found Amy." Seeing himself
being surrounded by girls he said, "I'll tell you the details later.
Have your roses changed yet?"
"I don't know. They might have."
Slapping Darien on the back, Alan said, "I'm sure there'll be plenty
of time later to examine them all we want." Resuming his seat next
to Amy, he asked, "Are we going to get down to business?"
**********
Walking home, Amy breathed a quiet sigh of relief. It had been a
trying day and seeing Alan on top of everything had served as a
catalyst to making everything explode around her. She slowly walked
with her head down; she had never felt so torn about anything in her
life, ever.
"You might want to watch where you're walking my sweet."
Amy looked up to see who had said that to her. She gulped when she
saw herself looking at a catlike creature. "What do you want?"
"Sailor Mercury, I'm to take you to my boss," the creature snarled
at her.
"I'm not going." She grabbed out her transformation wand and
called, "Mercury Sapphire Power!" Blue ribbons weaved themselves
around her body forming her uniform. A blue skirt, sailor collar,
and choker appeared on her body. Small wings sprouted from her back
and hid her face from view.
"Bashful are we? Why don't you give me a look?"
'I'll give you a look, alright,' Amy thought. She opened her wings
and yelled, "Mercury Freezing Mist!" A fine mist came off her wing
tips as she flapped them back and forth, freezing everything it
touched. It touched the creature's arm and slowly crept its way up.
Amy slopped flapping her wings and pulled out her communicator. "I
need back up."
By this time, the ice had crept up to the creature's chin. He
cackled and said, "Even if you manage to stop me today, Lord Frost
will send another one of us until he does have you."
"He'll have to clamor over my dead body first," a cold voice said
from the shadows. Amy whipped around to see Tuxedo Neptune standing
there. He conjured a rose and said, "Be sure to tell Frost that his
time is short lived. Until then... Water Rose!" He threw the rose
at the creature and watched as the water caused the ice to freeze
faster until the creature totally froze over. He went over to it
and kicked it squarely in the head, causing it to topple over and
shatter.
Amy walked up to him and said, "Thank you for your help." She
leaned up and kissed his cheek. "All I can offer you is friendship.
I've fallen for someone else."
He softly smiled and said, "I know." He turned away from her and
she could have sworn he said, 'You've fallen for me,' inside her
head. Amy returned to normal and finished her walk home, pausing
only to lock her door once she was inside.
**********
Robert
**********
"Damn it, damn it, damn it!" Robert pounded his fist into the
cushions of his couch. The fact that a monster had almost gotten
Amy innerved him, the fact that Lord Frost was alive was another
story. Robert could have sworn he vanquished the slimy bastard back
during the Silver Millennium; then again, Beryl's generals had been
Endymion's at one point. Stranger things had happened.
Speaking of stranger things, Robert closed his eyes when he realized
what kind of link he and Amy had established. He created the one
thing that could be his undoing, a telepathic bond.
'Amy,' he sent to her, trying to see if she would answer.
'Robert?'
He breathed a sigh of relief and answered, 'Yes, love. Look at what
we created this morning.'
'A telepathic bond.' She paused a moment and asked, 'Will you come
over?'
Robert began gathering his things and said, 'Yes. Give me a
minute.' Once he had everything gathered, he transformed into
Tuxedo Neptune, stepped onto his balcony, and began leaping from
rooftop to rooftop to Amy's apartment complex. Detransforming, he
climbed down several flights of stairs and knocked on Amy's door.
He waited a few moments and smiled when she opened the door. "I'm
here."
Amy put her arms around his neck and kissed him soundly. She had
needed his comfort all day. From the moment he had left that
morning, until now, she had felt adrift; alone in this big world.
Seeing Alan had helped it some, but not enough to help her. 'God,
how I love him.' she thought as she deepened the kiss.
Robert wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her up against
him. He had been there all day, but he couldn't hold her like this.
He put his hands under her shirt and traced circles on her back; the
silkiness of her skin mingling with his. 'God, how I love her,' he
thought as he took her into the bedroom.
"Robert, please..." Amy arched her back and pulled him in closer.
"Yes, Ames. Don't worry, we'll both be there soon," Robert said as
he lifted his shirt over his head.
He lifted her up and pulled the covers down, setting her on the bed
and just looking at her. 'However did I get so lucky?'
Amy dragged him down on top of her, losing track of who had pulled
what off. Taking his mouth into her own, she imitated what she
wanted done to her. "Please..."
Robert slowly kissed her as he sheathed himself in her. They slowly
moved toward release and when it came, it was like fireworks. As
both of them lay there panting, Robert revealed his secret.
'I'm Alan.'
