A/N: GOMEN NASAI!!!!! My exc-er explanation at the bottom!
~*~*~*~*~*~
Haruka and Michiru giggled as the two dived into the cool waters of the local pool. It was such a great day! Nothing could ruining it, nothing at all!
Swimming back up to the waters top Haruka climbed out of the pool with her love following. Grabbing a towel, the sandy blonde sighed in content. Did I mention today was such a wonderful day!?
"Papa!" A voice exclaimed in joy as a yellow blur attached itself to Haruka's arm.
"Koneko! So glad your back, how was America?" The sandy blonde questioned as she hugged her daughter tightly.
"It was great! Oh! I have some wonderful news for you too!" Turning around and getting out of her fathers grasp, she looked towards the door, smiling. "You can come out now Mamo-chan!"
Haruka froze...Mamo-chan? Why did that one little name fill her with such dread and the need to grab a shot gun?
Michiru gasped as a tall man wearing a forest green jacket, black dress pants, and black sunglasses walked into the pool swiftly. "Ohayo 'Kari" He greeted the blonde, who kissed him deeply on the lips.
Haruka growled as she tightened her hands into tight fists. Looking around the room she hissed, where was a bat when you needed one?
"Mama, Papa, I want you to meet my fiancé Mamoru Chiba!" Twenty-three year old Hikari stated happily, pointing towards the man beside her, as her fiancé bowed.
"Oh Hika-chan I'm so happy for you!" Michiru exclaimed teary eyed as she ran and embraced her daughter in a bear hug.
While the teal haired woman hugged her daughter, Haruka wondered how long she would be in jail if she ran over her daughter's fiancé and then backed up and repeated the process.
"Did I mention I'm one month pregnant as well?" Michiru squealed as she bounced up and down with Hikari. "You guys are going to be grandparents!"
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!" Suddenly everything faded to black and crumbled away.
~*~*~*~*~*~
"Noo!!!! Nooo!!!! NOOOOOO!!!!" The sandy blonde screamed as she began to struggle against her covers, trying to escape her nightmare.
Falling off her bed with a squeak, Haruka pulled the covers off her with a huff. Quickly standing up the woman stalked into the living room where her girlfriend and daughter were watching some American show called Bugfats or Rugrats or something! Walking past Michiru she went over to her daughter and wagged her finger. "Allah forbid you should date any man named Mamoru, Oh and you can't have any kids or get married till your hundred and four!" With a curt nod she walked out of the living room and straight out of the apartment.
"Ano...Mama what's wrong with papa?" Hikari asked as she stared at the door to the apartment in confusion.
Sweat-dropping, the teal haired woman laughed. "Your papa just had a nightmare sweetie that's all."
"But it isn't night, so wouldn't it be a Daymare?" The little blonde asked as she stared at her mother.
Michiru blinked and laughed. "I guess it would. How about we go and get you ready for swimming, hmm?"
"Yay!!" Hikari said happily as she jumped off the couch and ran down the hall.
~*~*~*~*~*~
Makoto sighed as she walked down the street. So far the past two days, Motoki's sister had tried to kiss her, she had been hypnotized into dancing with a freaky looking yoma and to top it all off the Outers had attacked her and the other Inners when they had asked a couple of questions about Sailor Moon, even Pluto had attacked them!
So now dead tired and hungry, the brown haired woman was heading home after a hard days work of delivering pizza.
'Too bad people aren't allowed to tip'{1} Makoto thought as she stopped at a road crossing. Looking over at the little sign that would tell her when to walk, she sighed. 'Working days sucks!'
Looking at the light she began to growl. 'Come on you damn thing turn already! There's nothing coming!!!'
Yeah as if that would-
Light turns into a little person, meaning Makoto could walk across the road.
-work....never mind.
'Almost home..almost home..almo-ahhh!' The brown haired Senshi of Jupiter screamed as she slipped on an oil patch and fell flat on her back. 'ow......yep that sucked.'
Holding her head, she sat up groaning in pain. 'This is not my week. or year..or millennia for that matter.'
Vroom...Vroom..
Makoto turned towards her right where she saw a headlight coming at her fast. Really fast, really super fast.
'Mako-baka move!' Her mind screamed at her as she stared in shock as the motorcycle came closer. 'MOVE!!' Wincing Makoto rolled out of the way as the motorcycle came screeching to a halt right were she was sitting before.
Makoto winced as a sandy blonde women helped her stand up. Rubbing her poor head, she started to open her mouth to tell the stupid, crazy, jackass of a driver off, but was stopped when the woman spoke soft, causing Makoto to practically melt.
"Gomen nasai miss, I'm sorry I wasn't watching where I was going." The sandy blonde explained as she dusted Makoto off and looked her over to make sure she was okay.
Makoto looked at the person in front of her with stars in her eyes. If it wasn't for the fact that you could tell the person in front of her had breasts, Makoto would have thought it was a boy; and a cute one at that. A sudden jolt of pain from her hand made the brown hair woman come out of her thoughts and look down at her hand.
"Your hand's bleeding." Taking a handkerchief from her pocket, the stranger tied it gently around Makoto's bleeding hand. "There that should help."
"Ari...arigato." Makoto said as she blushed while looking at the handkerchief.
"It's no problem it's my fault that your hurt. Um...if you want I could give you a ride back to your house, I always carry an extra helmet." The sandy blonde offered as she lead Makoto to her motorcycle and handed her a helmet.
"Arigato again-?"
"Haruka Tenoh." The sandy blonde, now identified as Haruka, said smiling.
"Oh right, your the guy I met at the Opera house a couple of nights ago....except your a woman?" Makoto stated confused, she could have sworn a couple of nights ago Haruka was a man, but yet here she was standing in front of her a...woman.
"Well only 99% percent woman." Haruka told her as she set down on the motorcycle and motioned for Makoto hop on the back.
"Really what about the other 1%?" The brown haired woman questioned curiously, making herself comfortable on the back of the motorcycle.
"Wouldn't you like to know! Hold on tight because we're going to fly!" With that Haruka speed down the road and Makoto hung on for dear life.
~*~*~*~*~*~
Haruka smiled as she watched Makoto bow and say thank you. "No need to thank me, I was just being nice and repaying you for not suing my ass when I almost ran over you."
Makoto blushed and suddenly found the cracks in the sidewalk very interesting.
"Well good-bye my lady, hopefully we'll see each other again." With that Haruka speed down the street and turned the corner.
Makoto looked up. "Wait!" She hollered after Haruka. "You forgot your Handkerchief!"
"Awww isn't that beautiful Ami-chan, Makoto found herself a boyfriend." Minako said as she leaned into Rei, fakely crying. "Our little girl is growing up so fast. Before you know it she'll leave us for some man and won't let us see our grandchildren!"
Rei sweat-dropped as Ami-chan giggled but stopped instantly when she saw the look Makoto was giving her.
"Besides Haruka isn't a man, she's a woman." Makoto stated as she crossed her arms.
The blonde Senshi of Love blushed as she looked away from her friends in embarrassment. How was she suppose to know that tom-boy Haruka was a girly-girl?
"Besides what are you three doing here?" The brown haired woman asked as she looked at her friends. She was sure that there wasn't a Senshi meeting today, so why where on this side of town?
Rei smiled at Makoto as the others grinned. "Luna and Artemis came back last night, they say they are close to figuring out where Usagi-chan lives. And we figured you would want to know right away."
"Actually we were just bored and wanted to know if you would like to go shopping with us." Minako stated as she latched herself onto Makoto's arm.
"Sure I would be glad too, besides I have to return this to Haruka." The brown haired girl explained as she showed the group the pinkish colored handkerchief.
"So that woman was Haruka right?" Rei asked her friend as she thought for a second about something.
"Hai, why?"
"Well Haruka just reminds me of that man in my vision, but as you said before Haruka is a women not a man." Sighing, the raven haired priestess shook her head. "Forget it, lets go shopping!"
As the group headed down the street, they didn't notice a red haired women turn around and stare at them. " Go after that group, our target is one of them."
As if hearing its mistresses commands the Diamond Egg flew down the street.
"Soon." The red haired woman whispered as she disappeared.
~*~*~*~*~*~
"Mama watch!" Hikari hollered from the little diving board as Michiru turned towards her daughter smiling.
"I'm watching Hikari!" The teal haired woman hollered as she waved at her daughter.
Taking a deep breath Hikari jumped up an down once, twice, thrice times. 'Come on Hikari you can do it!' The little five year old thought as she closed her eyes and jumped.
Michiru laughed as she was sprayed with water from her daughter splash. "Way to go Hikari!" She exclaimed clapping as a beeping noise was heard from a table beside her.
"Darn-it not now!" Grabbing her golden watch she opened it to see her Koi's face.
"Michiru the wind is starting to get uneasy, the enemy is going to attack soon."
Closing her eyes, the teal haired woman concentrated and the snapped her eyes
open. "The sea is getting nervous. Where are you?"
Haruka laughed and scratched the back of her head. "Juuban Red Light District Mall?"
"You and Mall in the same sentence, I'm shocked Haruka-Koi!" Michiru exclaimed as she put a hand to her head pretending to faint from shock.
"Ha ha. Just get down here." With that Haruka's face disappeared from the watch's screen.
"Mama did you see it! I dived! I finally dived!" Hikari exclaimed as she skipped joyously towards her mother.
"Hai I did. You were wonderful, how about we go to the mall and celebrate?"
Michiru asked as she kneeled down in front of her daughter who nodded enthusiastically.
"Really!? Can I get some ice cream with chocolate sauce, sprinkles, caramel sauce, cherries, whip cream, strawberries and lots and lots a marshmallows?" The little blonde pony-tailed girl asked as she took her mothers hand and walked out of the local pool.
Laughing Michiru nodded. "Sure sweetie, but first lets go get dried and changed."
"Are you sure you don't want to wait and change when papa's with you? I remember her telling me she likes seeing you change it makes her happy down under." Hikari suggested as she looked up at her mother who choked and looked down at her.
"Believe me your father wont be getting 'happy down under' for a while."
~*~*~*~*~*~
Mamoru sighed as he looked at all the happy couples in the mall. 'Yeah just keep being happy you couples and before you know it some psycho freak in a robe will come and kill your love, who will be reborn to two over protective freaks and a woman with a staff that hurts like hell when she hits you with it.' The raven haired man thought as he rubbed his head where Sailor Pluto had hit him at the last yoma fight.
"Mamoru-san!" A loud way-to cheerful voice hollered as the man turned his head to see four girls walking happily over to him. "You wont believe what Rei told us this morning!" Minako hollered as she ran down the food court towards her friend not noticing the 'caution: wet floor' sign.
"Minako-chan watch out!" Makoto hollered as she grabbed onto Minako and tried to stop her friend from sliding on the floor, but instead caused her and her blonde friend to slid into Mamoru and falling unceremoniously to the ground.
"Minako you klutz!" Rei laughed as she ran carefully towards her friends and helping them up off the wet floor.
"Itai." Mamoru murmured as he rubbed the bump that was already forming on his head.
"Um anyways, what I wanted to tell you Mamoru-san was that Luna and Artemis have almost found where Usagi-chan is living! Isn't that great, before you know it we'll have Usagi-chan back." Minako explained as she bounced up and down happily.
"That is if the three psycho woman will let us even get close to her." The raven haired man explained as Rei hmphed. "Bunch of snot nosed stuck ups if you ask me."
"Dare you to say that around Pluto she'll smack you with that rod of hers." Ami stated as she watched the group grown in memory. Each of them except Ami have a bump some where on their body from the crazed guardian of time.
"Umm...where's Mako-chan?" Minako asked as she blinked and looked around for her friend.
"I don't know she was just here five seconds ago!" Rei stated as she looked around for her friend.
"Well lets go look for her she couldn't have gone that far." The blue haired woman of the group suggested as they each went different ways looking for their friend.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Hikari walked around the mall with her parents. When she and Michiru had arrived Setsuna had called them and told them to meet her in the mall by the fountain, but right now her parents where to busy looking at Victoria's newest Secret to head towards the fountain.
Sighing, the little blonde turned towards the food court which was just across the walk way. Looking around she noticed that her Mamo-chan was walking all alone....completely and utterly alone...so alone.......horribly alone..he was totally a 100% percent A-L-O-N-E!!
Smiling, she grabbed some unsuspecting five year old red head from his parents, shoved his hands into her parents', and she ran as fast as her little legs would carry her towards her miserably alone Mamo-chan.
Letting out a battle cry, which sounded alot like Xena's, she jumped and latched herself onto Mamoru's poor horribly alone leg. "Mamo-chan!"
The raven haired man's eyes widened as he looked down at his leg. "Hi...Hikari-chan what brings you here to the mall?" He asked blushing as he noticed everyone in the food court was looking at him funny.
"I did my first dive today and so my mama brought me here to get some ice cream, but then she got caught up in looking at some really lacey red underwear that looks like something your girly-friend would wear. Do you have a girly-friend, Mamo-chan?" Hikari asked as she looked up at Mamoru who was blushing like mad.
"Uh--ummmm. No, not right now I don't." As the words came out of his mouth he swore he saw every single girl lick her lips and look at him like a piece of meat.
Going starry eyed, Hikari hugged his leg tighter. "Then can I be your girly-friend? I promise I'll be the bestest one there is. I'll buy you ice cream and dolls, and I'll even invite you to my tea parties!"
Mamoru's eyes widened at the thought of himself in a pink frilly dress with a bonnet on, sitting next to some stuffed elephant and bear, sipping imaginary tea with a little kid.
"I wouldn't want you to have to do all tha-"
"Don't worry Mamo-chan! I would do anything for you! So I'm your girly-friend now, and as your girly-friend I demand to know what your doing all alone!" Hikari demanded as she got off Mamoru's leg and stomped her feet in a huff.
"I'm looking for a friend of mine." Mamoru answered as he watched Hikari look as if she was thinking something over.
"Good! Then I'll help!" Grabbing her 'boyfriends' arm she used all her strength to drag the man down the malls walk way.
~*~*~*~*~*~
Makoto swore again as she reached for Haruka's handkerchief only to have someone kick it out of her grasp.
Growling she watched as the piece of cloth was swept behind a soda machine. 'Great! Just frickin' great! I hope all of your feet fry in hell!'
Sighing she walked over to the soda machine and started to reach behind it, not noticing that a weird egg shaped object had landed and disappeared on the handkerchief.
"Oh come on you stupid thing!" Makoto grunted out as she grabbed the edge of the handkerchief, only to feel a hand wrap around hers....wait hand?? Slowly looking to where Haruka's handkerchief should have been she saw a gray faced, brown haired yoma.
Screaming she jerked her hand away flinging it up and down.
Meanwhile the Soda machine flew from the wall and crashed into the floor, while the yoma stood looking at Makoto. "Scar!"
'Great just my luck! Attacked by a yoma and can't even transform!' Makoto thought as she began to back up away from the weird-ass yoma.
~*~*~*~*~*~
Mamoru walked hand in hand with his new 'girly-friend' when he felt the ground shake, looking up he saw a mass amount of people running towards him screaming about a purple Chewbacca.
Looking over he saw Makoto being held by red ribbons that where attached to a weird purple yoma. 'Great Makoto needs me!'
As the last of the people ran out of the mall, Mamoru turned down to his side to tell Hikari to leave, only to find her gone. 'Good maybe she..got..-"
"Hey Big and Ugly you leave her alone! She never did anything to you! Hee-ya!"
'-away?' Sighing the twenty-some-odd year-old slowly looked up at the fight to see the little girl kick the yoma in what looked like it's shin.
Howling in pain the yoma let go of Makoto and grabbed it's leg hopping up and down.
"Hikari! No get away from there!" Mamoru shouted as he started forward.
"No you stay back Mamo-chan! I can handle this!" The little five year old commanded as she grabbed a red and gold heart shaped locket off the front of her shirt. 'Mama and Papa are going to kill me but I don't have a choice.' "Moon-"
She never got to finish her saying as the yoma shot a red ribbon at her, throwing her back into a wall, and causing her locket to slide across the floor and land under another snack machine.
Hikari cried very loudly as she held her leg tightly to her chest. "You broke my leg you dumb yoma!"
"Oh shut up child!" The yoma, Scar, hollered as she held her hand to her ears…well at least I think it was her ears.
Seeing that the yoma was distracted by Hikari, Mamoru, hesitantly ran, grabbed Makoto, and leaped into the nearest room to transform.
"You broke my leg!!!" The little blonde screamed at the top of her lungs as Scar loomed over her and held its ears tighter.
"Would you shut up-"
"HEE-YA!" Hikari kicked the yoma as hard as she could in the groin.
The little five year old laughed nervously as she noticed the yoma groan but straighten up and grin oddly at her.
"Oh....So you're a girl yoma…heheheh...." 'Not Good!" Hikari thought as she began to back up. Today was not her day. 'Where are my parents? They should be saving me about now!!'
"Sparkling Wide Pressure!" Electricity zoomed towards the yoma sending shocks through-out its body.
"How dare you ruin a wonderful day at the mall, in place of the moon, I, Sailor Jupiter, will not forgive you!" Jupiter turned towards Hikari's direction and pointed towards an exit. "Thanks for keeping the yoma distracted long enough for help to arrive, but you have to leave now."
Nodding, Hikari ran down the hall, oh boy were her parents going to get it when she found them.
"Damn you, Sailor Senshi!" The yoma hollered out as it growled and sent an attack towards the Brown haired Senshi.
~*~*~*~*~*~
Hikari ran as fast as she could. "Mama! Papa! Aunt Sesu?"
Knowing that the Senshi of Jupiter couldn't hold out on her own for long, she ran faster.
Turning the corner she noticed her parents and aunt heading her way, smiling in relief, she jumped her mother's arms.
"Hikari, what are you doing here? We were just coming to find you." Michiru explained as she hugged her daughter back.
"You have to help! Jupiter is fighting a yoma by herself, and I can't help, because my locket got hit under a soda machine...and....and...I'm sorry!" Sobbing, she held onto her mother tighter.
"It's alright hime, we were on our way to find you because we heard there was a yoma roaming the around the mall. Now you be a good girl and wait here while we go take care of it." The green haired woman told the little girl as she laid a hand onto the blondes shoulder.
"Demo!"
"No buts you need to stay away from the fight until we can get your locket back." Haruka stated matter-of-factly.
"Alright, but after this you owe me big time! I expect a really big birthday present this year!" Hikari exclaimed as she was set down onto the white tile floor of the mall.
Patting her daughter of the head Michiru turned to the other three and nodded. "Lets go!"
"Uranus Planet Power!"
"Neptune Planet Power!"
"Pluto Planet Power!"
"MAKE UP!"
In a flash of greens, blues, and yellows; Sailor Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto ran down the hall away from the little girl, who was praying they would be alright, and towards the battle.
"Oh and the yoma's a girl so don't try and KNEE IT!" Hikari shouted as her parents disappeared from her sight. Sighing, she looked around the mall in complete utter boredom.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Jupiter grunted as she threw her attack at the yoma sending it into a line of junk food machines.
"Careful Jupiter!" Tuxedo Kamen warned as he watched his friend dodge an attack sent by the purple yoma.
"Deep Submerge!"
"World Shaking!"
"Dead Scream!"
Maroon, Blue, and Yellow energy flew towards the yoma at break neck speed, as the three attacks hit the yoma head on, it screamed it she was thrown back and into a couple of vending machines.
"Enchanted by the New Age, here I am, Sailor Uranus, acting gorgeously!" The Senshi of the Sky stated proudly as she jumped in front of the yoma.
"Enchanted by the New Age, here I am, Sailor Neptune, acting gracefully!" The Senshi of the water explained softly as she too jumped and landed beside Uranus.
"Brought about by the danger you have caused, I, Sailor Pluto, am very pissed right now!" In a blur of green Pluto stood right in front of the yoma with her Garnet Rod pointed directly at it. Tilting her head, she smacked the yoma upside the head. "Bad yoma!"
Boink!
"Bad!"
Smack!
"Yoma!"
"Lady!" Scar hollered as she rubbed her head. "I'm just trying to do my job here so can you please not hit me with that!?"
"Wow a yoma with an attitude, almost as bad as your car." Neptune murmured as her sandy haired companion sweat-dropped.
"As much fun as this is, can you Senshi possibly destroy the damn thing so we all can go home?" Tuxedo Kamen questioned as Uranus looked at him.
"Well if it isn't the rose throwing hot air blowing hero of Juuban." Uranus stated as she raised an eyebrow at him, trying to figure out why her daughter liked him so much.
"Honey, not now!" Neptune commanded as she looked towards the dazed yoma. "Lets destroy this thing before anything else happens." Turning towards Jupiter she watched as the brown haired woman nodded. "All at once!"
"Deep Submerge!"
"World Shaking!"
"Dead Scream!"
"Sparkling Wide Pressure!"
All four attacks hit the yoma and dusted it with-in a mere second.
"Moon-dusted!" Jupiter stated happily as she watched the Outer Senshi.
Pluto looked at the dust in confusion. "As happy as I am that the stupid thing is gone, that was just way too easy."
"I agree, but then…why would they send such a weak yoma to take a heart crystal?" The teal haired Senshi of Water wondered aloud.
"I don't know…the enemy is up to something and whatever it is it's not good." The Guardian of Time whispered as she turned to leave.
"Ditto." Uranus murmured as she and Neptune walked away.
Jupiter watched them go in wonder before turning her head towards Tuxedo Kamen. "Weird bunch, those three are." Turning her head to the left she cursed when she heard the faint sound of sirens. "We better go Tuxedo Kamen, the police are coming." With that she ran from the scene.
As the tuxedo clad hero was about to jump away when something glittery caught his attention. Walking over the broken glass and thrown about vending machine products, he bent down onto his knees to see the compact that his little friend Hikari had had earlier. Turning it over in his hands he noticed that it was partially opened. Slowly opening the intricate locket he gasped upon seeing its contents.
Sitting delicately in the middle of the uniquely designed locket, glowing ever so softly, was the one the only Silver Crystal.
Looking up from the locket and towards the front of the mall and then back towards the locket, he shook his head trying to digest this new information. 'Hikari had had this…She said she could help…She was holding this in the air…and was trying to say something but the yoma struck her before she could finish…Oh Kami…can it be? Is Hikari Tenoh really my Usako?'
Loud blaring sirens brought him out of his thoughts, pocketing the heart shaped locket he quickly fled from the scene.

Haruka and Michiru giggled as the two dived into the cool waters of the local pool. It was such a great day! Nothing could ruining it, nothing at all!
Swimming back up to the waters top Haruka climbed out of the pool with her love following. Grabbing a towel, the sandy blonde sighed in content. Did I mention today was such a wonderful day!?

"It was great! Oh! I have some wonderful news for you too!" Turning around and getting out of her fathers grasp, she looked towards the door, smiling. "You can come out now Mamo-chan!"
Haruka froze...Mamo-chan? Why did that one little name fill her with such dread and the need to grab a shot gun?
Michiru gasped as a tall man wearing a forest green jacket, black dress pants, and black sunglasses walked into the pool swiftly. "Ohayo 'Kari" He greeted the blonde, who kissed him deeply on the lips.
Haruka growled as she tightened her hands into tight fists. Looking around the room she hissed, where was a bat when you needed one?
"Mama, Papa, I want you to meet my fiancé Mamoru Chiba!" Twenty-three year old Hikari stated happily, pointing towards the man beside her, as her fiancé bowed.
"Oh Hika-chan I'm so happy for you!" Michiru exclaimed teary eyed as she ran and embraced her daughter in a bear hug.
While the teal haired woman hugged her daughter, Haruka wondered how long she would be in jail if she ran over her daughter's fiancé and then backed up and repeated the process.
"Did I mention I'm one month pregnant as well?" Michiru squealed as she bounced up and down with Hikari. "You guys are going to be grandparents!"
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!" Suddenly everything faded to black and crumbled away.
~*~*~*~*~*~
"Noo!!!! Nooo!!!! NOOOOOO!!!!" The sandy blonde screamed as she began to struggle against her covers, trying to escape her nightmare.
Falling off her bed with a squeak, Haruka pulled the covers off her with a huff.

Walking past Michiru she went over to her daughter and wagged her finger. "Allah forbid you should date any man named Mamoru, Oh and you can't have any kids or get married till your hundred and four!" With a curt nod she walked out of the living room and straight out of the apartment.
"Ano...Mama what's wrong with papa?" Hikari asked as she stared at the door to the apartment in confusion.
Sweat-dropping, the teal haired woman laughed. "Your papa just had a nightmare sweetie that's all."
"But it isn't night, so wouldn't it be a Daymare?" The little blonde asked as she stared at her mother.
Michiru blinked and laughed. "I guess it would. How about we go and get you ready for swimming, hmm?"
"Yay!!" Hikari said happily as she jumped off the couch and ran down the hall.

"Well good-bye my lady, hopefully we'll see each other again." With that Haruka speed down the street and turned the corner.
Makoto looked up. "Wait!" She hollered after Haruka. "You forgot your Handkerchief!"
"Awww isn't that beautiful Ami-chan, Makoto found herself a boyfriend." Minako said as she leaned into Rei, fakely crying. "Our little girl is growing up so fast. Before you know it she'll leave us for some man and won't let us see our grandchildren!"
Rei sweat-dropped as Ami-chan giggled but stopped instantly when she saw the look Makoto was giving her.
"Besides Haruka isn't a man, she's a woman." Makoto stated as she crossed her arms.
The blonde Senshi of Love blushed as she looked away from her friends in embarrassment. How was she suppose to know that tom-boy Haruka was a girly-girl?
"Besides what are you three doing here?" The brown haired woman asked as she looked at her friends. She was sure that there wasn't a Senshi meeting today, so why where on this side of town?
Rei smiled at Makoto as the others grinned. "Luna and Artemis came back last night, they say they are close to figuring out where Usagi-chan lives. And we figured you would want to know right away."
"Actually we were just bored and wanted to know if you would like to go shopping with us." Minako stated as she latched herself onto Makoto's arm.
"Sure I would be glad too, besides I have to return this to Haruka." The brown haired girl explained as she showed the group the pinkish colored handkerchief.
"So that woman was Haruka right?" Rei asked her friend as she thought for a second about something.
"Hai, why?"
"Well Haruka just reminds me of that man in my vision, but as you said before Haruka is a women not a man." Sighing, the raven haired priestess shook her head. "Forget it, lets go shopping!"
As the group headed down the street, they didn't notice a red haired women turn around and stare at them. " Go after that group, our target is one of them."
As if hearing its mistresses commands the Diamond Egg flew down the street.
"Soon." The red haired woman whispered as she disappeared.
~*~*~*~*~*~
"Mama watch!" Hikari hollered from the little diving board as Michiru turned towards her daughter smiling.
"I'm watching Hikari!" The teal haired woman hollered as she waved at her daughter.
Taking a deep breath Hikari jumped up an down once, twice, thrice times. 'Come on Hikari you can do it!' The little five year old thought as she closed her eyes and jumped.
Michiru laughed as she was sprayed with water from her daughter splash. "Way to go Hikari!" She exclaimed clapping as a beeping noise was heard from a table beside her.
"Darn-it not now!" Grabbing her golden watch she opened it to see her Koi's face.
"Michiru the wind is starting to get uneasy, the enemy is going to attack soon."
Closing her eyes, the teal haired woman concentrated and the snapped her eyes
open. "The sea is getting nervous. Where are you?"
Haruka laughed and scratched the back of her head. "Juuban Red Light District Mall?"
"You and Mall in the same sentence, I'm shocked Haruka-Koi!" Michiru exclaimed as she put a hand to her head pretending to faint from shock.
"Ha ha. Just get down here." With that Haruka's face disappeared from the watch's screen.
"Mama did you see it! I dived! I finally dived!" Hikari exclaimed as she skipped joyously towards her mother.
"Hai I did. You were wonderful, how about we go to the mall and celebrate?"
Michiru asked as she kneeled down in front of her daughter who nodded enthusiastically.
"Really!? Can I get some ice cream with chocolate sauce, sprinkles, caramel sauce, cherries, whip cream, strawberries and lots and lots a marshmallows?" The little blonde pony-tailed girl asked as she took her mothers hand and walked out of the local pool.
Laughing Michiru nodded. "Sure sweetie, but first lets go get dried and changed."
"Are you sure you don't want to wait and change when papa's with you? I remember her telling me she likes seeing you change it makes her happy down under." Hikari suggested as she looked up at her mother who choked and looked down at her.
"Believe me your father wont be getting 'happy down under' for a while."
~*~*~*~*~*~
Mamoru sighed as he looked at all the happy couples in the mall. 'Yeah just keep being happy you couples and before you know it some psycho freak in a robe will come and kill your love, who will be reborn to two over protective freaks and a woman with a staff that hurts like hell when she hits you with it.' The raven haired man thought as he rubbed his head where Sailor Pluto had hit him at the last yoma fight.
"Mamoru-san!" A loud way-to cheerful voice hollered as the man turned his head to see four girls walking happily over to him. "You wont believe what Rei told us this morning!" Minako hollered as she ran down the food court towards her friend not noticing the 'caution: wet floor' sign.
"Minako-chan watch out!" Makoto hollered as she grabbed onto Minako and tried to stop her friend from sliding on the floor, but instead caused her and her blonde friend to slid into Mamoru and falling unceremoniously to the ground.
"Minako you klutz!" Rei laughed as she ran carefully towards her friends and helping them up off the wet floor.
"Itai." Mamoru murmured as he rubbed the bump that was already forming on his head.
"Um anyways, what I wanted to tell you Mamoru-san was that Luna and Artemis have almost found where Usagi-chan is living! Isn't that great, before you know it we'll have Usagi-chan back." Minako explained as she bounced up and down happily.
"That is if the three psycho woman will let us even get close to her." The raven haired man explained as Rei hmphed. "Bunch of snot nosed stuck ups if you ask me."
"Dare you to say that around Pluto she'll smack you with that rod of hers." Ami stated as she watched the group grown in memory. Each of them except Ami have a bump some where on their body from the crazed guardian of time.
"Umm...where's Mako-chan?" Minako asked as she blinked and looked around for her friend.
"I don't know she was just here five seconds ago!" Rei stated as she looked around for her friend.
"Well lets go look for her she couldn't have gone that far." The blue haired woman of the group suggested as they each went different ways looking for their friend.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Hikari walked around the mall with her parents. When she and Michiru had arrived Setsuna had called them and told them to meet her in the mall by the fountain, but right now her parents where to busy looking at Victoria's newest Secret to head towards the fountain.
Sighing, the little blonde turned towards the food court which was just across the walk way. Looking around she noticed that her Mamo-chan was walking all alone....completely and utterly alone...so alone.......horribly alone..he was totally a 100% percent A-L-O-N-E!!
Smiling, she grabbed some unsuspecting five year old red head from his parents, shoved his hands into her parents', and she ran as fast as her little legs would carry her towards her miserably alone Mamo-chan.
Letting out a battle cry, which sounded alot like Xena's, she jumped and latched herself onto Mamoru's poor horribly alone leg. "Mamo-chan!"
The raven haired man's eyes widened as he looked down at his leg. "Hi...Hikari-chan what brings you here to the mall?" He asked blushing as he noticed everyone in the food court was looking at him funny.
"I did my first dive today and so my mama brought me here to get some ice cream, but then she got caught up in looking at some really lacey red underwear that looks like something your girly-friend would wear. Do you have a girly-friend, Mamo-chan?" Hikari asked as she looked up at Mamoru who was blushing like mad.
"Uh--ummmm. No, not right now I don't." As the words came out of his mouth he swore he saw every single girl lick her lips and look at him like a piece of meat.
Going starry eyed, Hikari hugged his leg tighter. "Then can I be your girly-friend? I promise I'll be the bestest one there is. I'll buy you ice cream and dolls, and I'll even invite you to my tea parties!"
Mamoru's eyes widened at the thought of himself in a pink frilly dress with a bonnet on, sitting next to some stuffed elephant and bear, sipping imaginary tea with a little kid.
"I wouldn't want you to have to do all tha-"
"Don't worry Mamo-chan! I would do anything for you! So I'm your girly-friend now, and as your girly-friend I demand to know what your doing all alone!" Hikari demanded as she got off Mamoru's leg and stomped her feet in a huff.
"I'm looking for a friend of mine." Mamoru answered as he watched Hikari look as if she was thinking something over.
"Good! Then I'll help!" Grabbing her 'boyfriends' arm she used all her strength to drag the man down the malls walk way.
~*~*~*~*~*~
Makoto swore again as she reached for Haruka's handkerchief only to have someone kick it out of her grasp.
Growling she watched as the piece of cloth was swept behind a soda machine. 'Great! Just frickin' great! I hope all of your feet fry in hell!'
Sighing she walked over to the soda machine and started to reach behind it, not noticing that a weird egg shaped object had landed and disappeared on the handkerchief.
"Oh come on you stupid thing!" Makoto grunted out as she grabbed the edge of the handkerchief, only to feel a hand wrap around hers....wait hand?? Slowly looking to where Haruka's handkerchief should have been she saw a gray faced, brown haired yoma.
Screaming she jerked her hand away flinging it up and down.
Meanwhile the Soda machine flew from the wall and crashed into the floor, while the yoma stood looking at Makoto. "Scar!"
'Great just my luck! Attacked by a yoma and can't even transform!' Makoto thought as she began to back up away from the weird-ass yoma.
~*~*~*~*~*~
Mamoru walked hand in hand with his new 'girly-friend' when he felt the ground shake, looking up he saw a mass amount of people running towards him screaming about a purple Chewbacca.
Looking over he saw Makoto being held by red ribbons that where attached to a weird purple yoma. 'Great Makoto needs me!'
As the last of the people ran out of the mall, Mamoru turned down to his side to tell Hikari to leave, only to find her gone. 'Good maybe she..got..-"
"Hey Big and Ugly you leave her alone! She never did anything to you! Hee-ya!"
'-away?' Sighing the twenty-some-odd year-old slowly looked up at the fight to see the little girl kick the yoma in what looked like it's shin.
Howling in pain the yoma let go of Makoto and grabbed it's leg hopping up and down.
"Hikari! No get away from there!" Mamoru shouted as he started forward.
"No you stay back Mamo-chan! I can handle this!" The little five year old commanded as she grabbed a red and gold heart shaped locket off the front of her shirt. 'Mama and Papa are going to kill me but I don't have a choice.' "Moon-"
She never got to finish her saying as the yoma shot a red ribbon at her, throwing her back into a wall, and causing her locket to slide across the floor and land under another snack machine.
Hikari cried very loudly as she held her leg tightly to her chest. "You broke my leg you dumb yoma!"
"Oh shut up child!" The yoma, Scar, hollered as she held her hand to her ears…well at least I think it was her ears.
Seeing that the yoma was distracted by Hikari, Mamoru, hesitantly ran, grabbed Makoto, and leaped into the nearest room to transform.
"You broke my leg!!!" The little blonde screamed at the top of her lungs as Scar loomed over her and held its ears tighter.
"Would you shut up-"
"HEE-YA!" Hikari kicked the yoma as hard as she could in the groin.
The little five year old laughed nervously as she noticed the yoma groan but straighten up and grin oddly at her.
"Oh....So you're a girl yoma…heheheh...." 'Not Good!" Hikari thought as she began to back up. Today was not her day. 'Where are my parents? They should be saving me about now!!'
"Sparkling Wide Pressure!" Electricity zoomed towards the yoma sending shocks through-out its body.
"How dare you ruin a wonderful day at the mall, in place of the moon, I, Sailor Jupiter, will not forgive you!" Jupiter turned towards Hikari's direction and pointed towards an exit. "Thanks for keeping the yoma distracted long enough for help to arrive, but you have to leave now."
Nodding, Hikari ran down the hall, oh boy were her parents going to get it when she found them.
"Damn you, Sailor Senshi!" The yoma hollered out as it growled and sent an attack towards the Brown haired Senshi.
~*~*~*~*~*~
Hikari ran as fast as she could. "Mama! Papa! Aunt Sesu?"
Knowing that the Senshi of Jupiter couldn't hold out on her own for long, she ran faster.
Turning the corner she noticed her parents and aunt heading her way, smiling in relief, she jumped her mother's arms.
"Hikari, what are you doing here? We were just coming to find you." Michiru explained as she hugged her daughter back.
"You have to help! Jupiter is fighting a yoma by herself, and I can't help, because my locket got hit under a soda machine...and....and...I'm sorry!" Sobbing, she held onto her mother tighter.
"It's alright hime, we were on our way to find you because we heard there was a yoma roaming the around the mall. Now you be a good girl and wait here while we go take care of it." The green haired woman told the little girl as she laid a hand onto the blondes shoulder.
"Demo!"
"No buts you need to stay away from the fight until we can get your locket back." Haruka stated matter-of-factly.
"Alright, but after this you owe me big time! I expect a really big birthday present this year!" Hikari exclaimed as she was set down onto the white tile floor of the mall.
Patting her daughter of the head Michiru turned to the other three and nodded. "Lets go!"
"Uranus Planet Power!"
"Neptune Planet Power!"
"Pluto Planet Power!"
"MAKE UP!"
In a flash of greens, blues, and yellows; Sailor Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto ran down the hall away from the little girl, who was praying they would be alright, and towards the battle.
"Oh and the yoma's a girl so don't try and KNEE IT!" Hikari shouted as her parents disappeared from her sight. Sighing, she looked around the mall in complete utter boredom.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Jupiter grunted as she threw her attack at the yoma sending it into a line of junk food machines.
"Careful Jupiter!" Tuxedo Kamen warned as he watched his friend dodge an attack sent by the purple yoma.
"Deep Submerge!"
"World Shaking!"
"Dead Scream!"
Maroon, Blue, and Yellow energy flew towards the yoma at break neck speed, as the three attacks hit the yoma head on, it screamed it she was thrown back and into a couple of vending machines.
"Enchanted by the New Age, here I am, Sailor Uranus, acting gorgeously!" The Senshi of the Sky stated proudly as she jumped in front of the yoma.
"Enchanted by the New Age, here I am, Sailor Neptune, acting gracefully!" The Senshi of the water explained softly as she too jumped and landed beside Uranus.
"Brought about by the danger you have caused, I, Sailor Pluto, am very pissed right now!" In a blur of green Pluto stood right in front of the yoma with her Garnet Rod pointed directly at it. Tilting her head, she smacked the yoma upside the head. "Bad yoma!"
Boink!
"Bad!"
Smack!
"Yoma!"
"Lady!" Scar hollered as she rubbed her head. "I'm just trying to do my job here so can you please not hit me with that!?"
"Wow a yoma with an attitude, almost as bad as your car." Neptune murmured as her sandy haired companion sweat-dropped.
"As much fun as this is, can you Senshi possibly destroy the damn thing so we all can go home?" Tuxedo Kamen questioned as Uranus looked at him.
"Well if it isn't the rose throwing hot air blowing hero of Juuban." Uranus stated as she raised an eyebrow at him, trying to figure out why her daughter liked him so much.
"Honey, not now!" Neptune commanded as she looked towards the dazed yoma. "Lets destroy this thing before anything else happens." Turning towards Jupiter she watched as the brown haired woman nodded. "All at once!"
"Deep Submerge!"
"World Shaking!"
"Dead Scream!"
"Sparkling Wide Pressure!"
All four attacks hit the yoma and dusted it with-in a mere second.
"Moon-dusted!" Jupiter stated happily as she watched the Outer Senshi.
Pluto looked at the dust in confusion. "As happy as I am that the stupid thing is gone, that was just way too easy."
"I agree, but then…why would they send such a weak yoma to take a heart crystal?" The teal haired Senshi of Water wondered aloud.
"I don't know…the enemy is up to something and whatever it is it's not good." The Guardian of Time whispered as she turned to leave.
"Ditto." Uranus murmured as she and Neptune walked away.
Jupiter watched them go in wonder before turning her head towards Tuxedo Kamen. "Weird bunch, those three are." Turning her head to the left she cursed when she heard the faint sound of sirens. "We better go Tuxedo Kamen, the police are coming." With that she ran from the scene.
As the tuxedo clad hero was about to jump away when something glittery caught his attention. Walking over the broken glass and thrown about vending machine products, he bent down onto his knees to see the compact that his little friend Hikari had had earlier. Turning it over in his hands he noticed that it was partially opened. Slowly opening the intricate locket he gasped upon seeing its contents.
Sitting delicately in the middle of the uniquely designed locket, glowing ever so softly, was the one the only Silver Crystal.
Looking up from the locket and towards the front of the mall and then back towards the locket, he shook his head trying to digest this new information. 'Hikari had had this…She said she could help…She was holding this in the air…and was trying to say something but the yoma struck her before she could finish…Oh Kami…can it be? Is Hikari Tenoh really my Usako?'
Loud blaring sirens brought him out of his thoughts, pocketing the heart shaped locket he quickly fled from the scene.
