Hello, hello! ^^ I'm glad you're reading the latest installment! Now,
remember, I don't own Sailor Moon or anything, so no lawsuits! ^^
*** (In the Temple)
Sailor Venus and Sailor Star Healer stood over the bed with Hoshi in it. Sailor Venus slowly picked up the small child and wrapped her in a blanket. She handed her to Healer. They both ran through the temple, trying to find a place to hid Hoshi.
"Surprise!" Surya appeared before Sailor Venus and Sailor Star Healer.
"Surya!?" Venus yelled in confusion.
"Hello, my pet." Surya touched Venus's cheek, and Sailor Star Healer slapped his hand away.
"Ooh, jealous, are we?" Surya smiled wickedly.
"Don't touch her ever again!" Sailor Star Healer's green eyes flamed with anger.
"I'm so scared!" Surya laughed. "You pathetic Senshi are no match for my power!"
Suddenly all of the other Senshi ran down the hallway. Sailor Venus and Sailor Star Healer looked over their shoulders, and Surya took this moment to snatch the wrapped up Hoshi from Sailor Star Healer.
"Hoshi!" Venus yelled as Surya smiled at them both.
"Well, I have what I was coming for, I hope I'll get to see you Senshi some time soon! Ta ta!" Surya disappeared in a flash of yellow light.
"Hoshi!" Sailor Moon fell to her knees.
Sailor Venus smiled wickedly and turned to Sailor Moon. "What's wrong?"
"He took Hoshi from me," Sailor Moon looked down at her empty hands.
"No he didn't." Sailor Star Healer grinned.
"Nani?" Sailor Moon looked up at them.
"I don't understand." Sailor Neptune looked at the two grinning Senshi.
"All he took was one of Rei's old dolls, bundled up." Venus smiled from ear to ear.
"We hid Hoshi somewhere else, and then we ran away, pretending we had Hoshi all along."
"You're a genius!" Sailor Jupiter grinned at the two.
"Oh no," Sailor Moon put her hand to her lips. "Ami is still outside." She de transformed and looked at Venus and Healer. "You two stay transformed and go protect Hoshi, because I'm sure that he'll be back. The rest of us will check on," She looked at Healer, not wanting to upset her by telling her about Taiki. "Ami, to see how she fared after that attack."
"I'll go with Venus and Healer." Jupiter walked with the other two Senshi. Sailor Uranus, Neptune, Scythe and Mars de transformed and went back outside to see Ami and Seiya.
*** (Outside)
Seiya was sitting on the ground next to Ami, he was trying his best to console her, but all he could do is remember Taiki, and he bit his lip to hold back tears.
"I just wanted to tell him . . ." Ami sobbed. "Why does fate have to be so cruel to me? Why?"
"Ami-chan . . ." Seiya touched her on the shoulder. "I don't know what I can say."
"Nothing you say will bring him back! Nothing will!" Ami dropped the ring onto the ground. Seiya picked it up and looked at it, aghast.
"Where did you get this?"
"I didn't get it anywhere, he . . . he had it when I was with him today." Ami sobbed.
"Oh Seiya!" Usagi came out of the temple and ran to him. "I'm so sorry! I promise to avenge him!" Usagi squeezed him.
"I'm so sorry Ami-chan." Rei placed her hands on Ami's shoulders and Ami sobbed onto Rei.
"I wish there was something we could do." Akiko sadly looked at the ground.
"Wait a minute!" Seiya stood up with the ring. He ran to Akiko, a gleam of hope and craziness in his eyes. "Scythe, Scythe, you can do it, do it Scythe!"
"Poor Seiya has gone off his rocker." Rei shook her head.
"No I haven't!" Seiya looked at Akiko. "Do you guys even know what this is?" He put the ring up in the air.
"It's just a ring, Seiya, stop going crazy." Haruka felt a pang of sympathy, albeit a small one.
"No, this is Sailor Star Maker's ring. I don't know how he got it, but he did!"
"Kakyuu-him gave it to him." Akiko looked at the ground.
"This is perfect!" Seiya jumped into the air.
"Seiya, are you going to be alright? The grief must be making him like this." Usagi put her hand on his forehead.
"Inside this ring contains all of Sailor Star Maker's duty, power, and life force! Maybe if Akiko uses the Mother Emerald on it, then Taiki will come back!"
"Oh Seiya, why didn't I think of that before?" Akiko smacked her forehead. "I just keep forgetting that I have this." She took the Emerald off. "I know that this would work, the only thing is . . ."
"What? I'll do anything to bring him back!" Ami looked at Akiko.
"Well, I just don't think I have the power to use the Mother Emerald." Akiko looked at the ground.
"I could try to use it," Everyone looked at Usagi. "Well, I don't know. If I can use the Silver Imperium Crystal, maybe I'll be strong enough to use the Mother Emerald."
Ami ran over to Usagi. "Oh please, I'll do anything if you could!"
Akiko handed the Mother Emerald to Usagi. "I suppose you could try, but I'll warn you, the only person who has used it was my Princess. Just please Usagi, be careful!"
"Yes, Neko-chan, be careful." Haruka placed her hand on Usagi's shoulder and then stepped away.
Usagi took the ring from Seiya and the Mother Emerald from Akiko. She concentrated on the feeling of the Emerald in her hand. Suddenly a bright light flashed and everyone covered their eyes. When they looked, Usagi was gone.
"Odango?" Seiya looked around, but saw her floating in the air surrounded by a green light.
"Be careful, Koneko-chan!" Haruka yelled.
Suddenly all of the Senshi felt a warm feeling tugging at their heart.
"Taiki," Ami sighed and her planetary symbol appeared on her forehead.
"What is this?" Michiru closed her eyes and her planetary symbol appeared on her forehead.
"Such a warm light." Rei's symbol appeared on her head.
"I hope this works," Haruka's symbol flashed before appearing.
"Be careful Usagi," Akiko leant her power and her symbol appeared.
"Bring him back," Seiya leant his power.
"Nani?" Venus felt the warm light encircle her. She leant her power.
"Taiki!?" Healer leant her power, but let a tear fall down her face.
"Please bring him back for Ami," Jupiter's symbol appeared.
***
"What was that?" Sailor Jupiter opened her eyes.
"Taiki is . . .?" Sailor Star Healer fell to her knees.
"Nani?" Sailor Venus looked at Sailor Jupiter in shock.
"Well, he wasn't transformed when Surya attacked him and Ami." Jupiter looked at the ground. "Usagi just didn't want to be the bearer of bad news, for Healer's sake."
"How could he . . ." Venus was in shock.
"I'm not really very sure, Venus-chan." Jupiter shook her head. "Are you going to be okay, Healer?"
Sailor Star Healer still sat on the floor, a blank stare on her face. Venus put her hand onto Healer's shoulder. "I'm sure that things will work out," She tried in vain.
"No," Healer spoke in a mono-tone voice. "A shooting Star has burned out."
*** A big flash of light blinded everyone outside. When they opened their eyes they saw Usagi up in the air, with Taiki in her arms. She was slowly lowered to the ground, but she was now dressed in long green robes. Usagi had her eyes shut, and continued to fall towards the ground. Green high heeled boots clacked as they touched pavement.
"Taiki-san!" Ami started crying now from joy instead of grief.
Usagi lowered Taiki to the ground and laid him down. She looked up at the Senshi with green eyes, her Odangos had fallen down and now she had her hair flowing freely.
"Odango?" Seiya looked at the now changed Usagi, she was covered in green light. Usagi walked over to Akiko and placed her hands on Akiko's shoulders.
"Scythe, protect them, they are our last hope."
Akiko bowed. "Menuha-hime! I will always be faithful to you." Akiko let a tear fall from her face.
"Remember," The green light started fading away from Usagi and she fell to the ground. Seiya ran over to her and picked her up in his arms.
"Taiki!" Ami ran over to Taiki and sobbed onto his chest.
"Odango, wake up! Please wake up!" Seiya shook Usagi, but she lay limp in his arms.
"Taiki, I can't believe it worked, this must be a dream or something!" Ami laid her head onto Taiki's chest and let out sobs of joy.
Meanwhile, Haruka, Michiru, Rei and Akiko had all gathered around Usagi and Seiya.
"Is she?" Rei started.
"She couldn't be, not my Neko-chan." Haruka stared down in disbelief.
"Usagi-chan?" Michiru bit her lip. Fear filled the Senshi.
"Odango . . ." Seiya held Usagi's limp body in his arms. "Odango no . . . Please, don't leave me." Seiya laid his head down onto Usagi's chest, trying to feel her heart beat. "Oh God, No!" Seiya started to cry. "No when I just had you, no, no, no! I just can't lose her now!" Seiya pulled Usagi up to his chin and he cried on her head.
"Seiya-san?" Haruka tried to place a hand onto his shoulder.
"This can't be happening, it just can't be." Seiya was frantic. "No, Odango, you just can't leave me, why does this has to happen?" Seiya cried onto her hair, feeling the silky strands that lay astray all over her face.
"I shouldn't have of let her use it," Akiko sobbed. "Now my planet will never be saved."
"Don't worry, Odango, I'm coming to get you." Seiya laid Usagi onto the ground.
"What are you doing, Seiya?" Rei asked, shocked.
"I'm going to get her back, I just have to." Seiya started to pace back and forth.
"Seiya," Michiru tried to stop Seiya.
"Alright, I know what I'm going to do." Seiya stood still for a moment and shut his eyes. He channeled his energy and concentrated.
"Seiya, don't do this," Rei warned.
"Seiya," Haruka stared to get worried.
Seiya stood perfectly still, a red aura surrounded him.
"He better not do what I think he's doing," Akiko looked nervously around.
"Seiya, stop!" Haruka yelled.
No response came from Seiya.
"I warned you, Baka! You're going to get you both killed!" Haruka tried again. But, again, no response from Seiya. "That's it, Baka!" Haruka rushed Seiya and tackled him to the ground, football style. The two rolled around on the ground for a second.
"Haruka, what are you doing?" Michiru yelled.
Haruka pulled Seiya up from the ground and shook him roughly. "Shimatta! WAKE UP, BAKA!"
Seiya opened his eyes, his feet were barely touching the ground as Haruka held him by his collar. "I'm doing what I should do!" Seiya yelled.
"You're going to get yourself killed, why can't you listen to me?"
"Masako, Haruka, I just had her!" Seiya yelled, tears streaming down his face. "I held her in my arms, if only I was there for just a few more moments,"
"A few more moments and you'd be dead! Listen to me," Haruka was stopped by a punch to the stomach. Seiya pulled away from her grasp and knelt next to Usagi.
"I won't let you leave me," He stroked her face.
"Do that again, Seiya, and I'll kill you!" Haruka stood back up and walked over to Seiya.
"If you're going, I'm going too." Seiya leaned down and kissed Usagi, slowly. He sat back up from the kiss, looking dazed. He fell over and passed out on the ground.
Usagi let out a quiet groan.
"Usagi!" Rei yelled happily.
"Oh Usagi, you had me so worried!" Michiru wiped tears from her eyes.
*** Hey you guys, you don't think that I was gonna kill off Usagi, now was I? I'm not that mean! I have plans for her in the future! *laughs evilly * Don't you worry though, Taiki will be all right! ^.^ v R/R! I'd like 50 reviews before I post again, so let's get those numbers up, people! ^^ Again, Arigato for sticking with me!
