Hey all, I just registered for fanfiction.net because I love this site and all the stories! I thought I would share some of my writing so here's a Sailor Moon fan fic I started writing two years ago. I never finished it but. I've never had people read it. If I get positive feedback and people want me to end the story, I probably will try. Thanks so much for reading!

Chapter One

Unexpected Visitor

Usagi sat frustrated at her desk. She had just that afternoon to study.to cram for her Algebra midterm the next day. y=mx+b. y=mx+b...yequalsemexplusbe. She repeated over and over again in her head. Huh? But what's y and why the heck does it equal emexplusbe??? Usagi slammed her math book shut with a heavy thump. I give up! Why can't math make any sense? If only math books were more like manga.manga always makes sense.and it always has cute guys too... Usagi giggled. She threw her math book onto her floor. It landed on top of a growing mountain of dirty clothes. Hmmm. Maybe I should listen to mom and do the laundry sometime.but chores are such a bore. Usagi yawned as she got of her desk chair and walked over to her warm bed that had it's own mountain of pink sheets, blankets, and pillows on it.

Usagi crawled into her blanket and reached beneath her pillow. After a bit of grabbing she finally took out her brand new Magic Knight Rayearth manga she had just gotten. She began to read and enjoy the beautiful artwork of CLAMP. Right on cue she laughed hysterically at the parts where Umi roared violently at the kawaii character Makona when he irritatingly failed to do his job as the Magic Knights guide. Just as Usagi was just about to get to the good part of the manga, where the dashing Ferio was about to appear, there was a knock at her door. "Who is it?" Usagi called barely looking away from the manga.

"It's your father! Tsukino Usagi, let me in!" A gruff voice replied "Usagi! Are you studying for your midterm tommorrow?" Usagi heart began to pound. I can't let him see me reading manga instead of studying! He might take it away and I haven't even finished reading it! "Papa! Eh.hold on!" Usagi panicked. She supposed that her manga did not look at all like her math textbook, her father would definitely notice it, and quickly hid the comic under her pillow as she grabbed her math book. Going to the door Usagi managed to kick the jewelry, magazines, and make-up laying all over the floor under her bed. With one final look at the room she decided it looked all right, kinda like she had just been studying, and proceeded to open the door. On the other side of the barricade was a tall dark handsome young man with gorgeous black hair waiting for her.

Usagi gasped. Her heart began to beat, her stomach danced even harder than it had a moment ago when she had thought she was in deep trouble, as she the saw the face of the young man. But surely, it couldn't be? "Oh my god.Am I dreaming?" Usagi whispered the name aloud "Mamoru?" She said softly. Memories flashed by in her head. Memories of warm moments, deep kisses, and happiness like she could feel with no one else but her true soul mate. Was it possible that she was about to make even more memories?

"Konnichiwa, ondango atama." The man replied smiling wickedly. Usagi cried out and hopped into Mamoru's strong arms like a true Bunny. "Mamo-chan!" She shrieked. Her sudden movement caught the Harvard law school student by surprise as he toppled to the floor. Mamoru wrapped his arm around the girl who lay on top of him and began to kiss her as if he had not seen her for centuries when in reality it had been just weeks.

"You were reading manga again weren't you, Usa?" Mamoru scolded as the long kiss broke.

"Mamo-chan!" Usagi's breathless voice sent chills through Mamoru's heart. But her face suddenly turned cold. She stood up and turned her back to him folding her arms in front of her. "I can't believe you tricked me like that! I thought you were my father! I thought I was going to get in trouble! And there is nothing at all wrong with me reading my manga! How can you even say anything and pretend you care." She said nastily. "I wrote 3 letters every single day and you only answered 6 of them!"

Mamoru sighed. Oh boy. "Usa.If there was nothing wrong with reading manga then why were you afraid of getting in trouble?" Mamoru walked up to his princess and gently put his arms around her. "Of course I care about you. I'm sorry I didn't write to you. Really, I treasured the letters you sent to me. I read them over and over again. I didn't write back to you very much only because I had nothing to write about! Nothing exciting happened except a few big tests. I didn't want to bore you with my great adventures. studying. Concerned he whispered to her through her ear, "You know, Usagi, maybe I should have wrote to you about studying because you know.if you want to get into a good college you have got to-"

"I know! I know! I have got to study hard!" Usagi groaned finishing the sentence for him. She sighed sadly and turned to look at his handsome face. She grabbed his hands to hold them in hers as she asked him "Why is it that everyone keeps telling me that? Ami, Rei, Dad, Mom, Setsuna, Haruka, You-" Usagi began to list...

"Uh...You don't have to mention everybody Usako..." Mamoru Chiba mumbled as Usagi continued.

"Naru, Cooan, Petz, Michiru, Motoki, Mrs. H, Hotaru.Chibi-Usa even sent me a letter saying that I should study!" Usagi said exasperated.

Mamoru tried changing the subject. "Well, studying is very important Usagi. But never mind about that. I didn't come to scold you. I've missed you so much, Usa." Mamoru lifted his hand gently to stroke Usagi's beautiful golden hair. "Mamo-chan." Usagi sighed. Changing the subject worked. "I can't believe you're here. I though you were not supposed to have any vacations from Harvard until next month!" She said looking up at him.

"I know, but I couldn't stand staying away from you any longer. I got a favor from the dean and got a couple days off." He smiled. "You know I always do really miss you at college."

"I miss you too Mamo-chan." Usagi said quietly but then cheering up she added "But this is wonderful!" Usagi started clapping her hands like a little child. "Now you can see the play me and the senshi are throwing for Rei! It's a fund raiser for her grandfather's Hikawa Shrine! They need a new-"

"They need a new roof for the temple because the old one is falling apart. I know, Usako, I know! You wrote me twenty letters about it out of those three you sent every day!" Mamoru chuckled.

Usagi frowned. "Can you cut it out with the ratios Mamoru.It's reminding me of math(Maybe she really did study)" Not hearing Mamoru continued. "And...I also happen to recall from one of my thoasand letters(or was it every single one of them?) that the senshi gave you the leading role, right? That's why I'm here, Ondango Atama! I just couldn't miss your acting debut! I'd never miss a chance to watch you klutz out on stage."

"Mamo-chan." Usagi said hurt.

"I'm kidding honey. If you did klutz out you know that I'd catch you. I wouldn't let you fall." Mamoru said queitly. He buried his head in Usagi's sweet smelling golden hair.

"Mamo-chan.I love you so much. Your so sweet." Usagi sighed, happy again.

"I love you too, Usako." They kissed once agian.

The kiss broke and Usagi looked down at the floor. Mamoru noticed she looked a little sad. He frowned and asked Usagi what was the matter?

"Nothing, Mamo-chan. I'm really glad your here. I've been needing to see you.ever since Mina-chan..." Usagi said her voice softly trailing away with a sad look on her face.

"You miss her, huh?" Mamoru asked gently. Minako had lately moved back to England. She had been accepted to a boarding school over there that was famous for teaching acting and singing. Mina had just had to take her chance to fulfill her dream and become a famous idol star. She had left just a few weeks ago and already Usagi missed her sorely.

"You know.if she were here she'd probably get the leading role in the play, instead of me, wouldn't she..." Usagi sighed.

"But I wouldn't have minded(Well I probably would.)! I miss her so much. Mamo-chan! Soon, Ami will leave too!" Usagi started sobbing lightly into Mamoru's shoulder. Ami had told her the other day that she was planning to study abroad again, an opportunity she had put down before so that she could be with the senshi. "So many good-byes! I can't stand it."

"Usa! Don't cry...They'll come visit you just like I am doing right now...." Mamoru said trying to comfort her.

"But I just can't stand it! All of us! We are being separated! What if we are attacked by something! I won't be able to defend the Earth by myself!" Usagi cried "Mamoru! Even Rei! Rei is planning to leave me! She has been talking to Mina a lot. What if she decides to go to England too? The little snob wants to become a star too! I can just picture it they'll both star in a show called "Fiery Love"! Its just too perfect. Mina will be the boy crazy one and her best friend will be Rei, the girl who hates men. But then they will end up falling in love with the same guy and they will bet into a big fight and and. Usagi.you could become a writer. Mamoru thought. "You know very well that's it's not likely anything will happen with any new enemies. And if something does occur, you know how strong you are. And it's a little unfair calling Rei a snob."

"What!?! Why are you defending her?" Usagi screeched. "Do you like her???"

Mamoru put his hands firmly on Usagi's shoulder to clam her down. "I do like her." A look of shock came over Usagi's face but it disappeared as Mamoru said "But I love you. You know that. Now, cheer up! You are not going to spend my whole visit here being sad and gloomy are you?"

"No, I wouldn't do that..." said Usagi ceasing her tears. She sniffed and smiled. "Hey did I tell you what play we're doing? Me and Rei just decided yesterday..."

"It's not Snow White is it?" Mamoru groaned recalling that past time when the inner senshi had all been in a production that Mamoru was both directing and leading in. The play would have been a disaster but fortunately Sailor Moon and the others had made a dashing appearance to defeat a cardian and the show ended up a big hit.

"No!" giggled Usagi. "No, we're doing Romeo and Juliet!"

"You are?" Mamoru felt a twinge of jealousy. "Hey. Um...who are you getting to play Romeo?" he asked trying not to sound suspicious but Usagi could tell he was getting uncomfortable and seized the chance to to tease him.

"Oh well I was thinking maybe Motoki or maybe we could get the Star Lights to come visit and we could get Seiya...." Usago teased.

"Hey! Hey....Your kidding right?" Mamoru asked.

"Maybe." Usagi laughed at Mamoru's astonished look. "Yes! I'm just kidding silly. You see, we were actually going to do Little Red Riding Hood." Usagi stuck out her tongue at the thought of the childish play. "But, now that your here, Romeo and Juliet it is!" She exclaimed.

"Auggh!" groaned Mamoru "Does that mean I have to memorize all those lines...come on Usagi I'm supposed to be on a vacation!"

"Hey! If I can do it, then you certainly can...unless you want me to get Motoki..or Seiya...Haruka would also make a good Romeo..." Usagi began teasing again

"Okay! Okay! I'll do it!" Mamoru gave in.

"Thank you!" Usagi laughed and kissed Mamoru for the hundredth time that day.

************************************

Later that evening, alone in his apartment, Mamoru stared up at the night sky. The moon shone brightly as the sun of the nighttime. In this special time of darkness the moon's light glimmered and brought light. But still there were many shadows, Mamoru noticed, as he looked around the city of Tokyo from his rather high up balcony. The Moon.Sailor Moon.

"Usa." Mamoru whispered. "Even with your light.your light that bring happiness to so much people. To me. There is still darkness." In the sky a cloud passed by hiding the moon. The night suddenly got darker than it had already been. "Sometimes the darkness steals away our light. But I won't let it take you. Usa."

Mamoru had not wanted to worry his dear Usagi at her house, but the real reason he was there in Tokyo was because.he been getting premonitions.of danger. Something was going to happen. He had no idea what...but he knew...something would happen. The dark cloud passed by and the moon was revealed again. Mamoru stared at the beautiful cresent moon liting skies again just like the sun. "Usa..." He whispered into the cold chilly night. He hugged himself and walked off the balcony praying that nothing would happen. Nothing would steal his beloved away from him.
