First Women 10

+Usagi's POV+

I landed Cosmos after the fighting was done and surveyed the landscape around me. Buildings had been knocked down, people were hurt, the streets were cracked from our attacks and vice versa.

"Usa. We did a good job. All the training helped huh?" Mako's face flashed on the screen, smiling brightly.

"Yeah." I said quietly and I closed down Cosmos and jumped down onto the destroyed streets of Kyoto.

"Usagi, you did a good job." A voice said with silent fondness. I smiled and turned around.

"You think so, Professor Barton?"

"It's Trowa now."

"Mamoru!!" Makoto yelled and jumped on me, almost knocking me down. I heard Pro- Trowa chuckle. I sighed and put my hands in pockets.

"Hey, I'm a little tired, I think I'm going to go first. See you later Makoto."

"Uh, see you later?"

I nodded and climbed back into my Gundam..

+Makoto's POV+

Usagi didn't look too good, I wonder if something's the matter. Behind Trowa, I spotted Rei with Minako, helping her limp with a hurt ankle.

"Hey, are you okay Rei?" I asked and quickly covered my mouth. Crap, I think I just blew my cover.

+Heero's POV+

I was sitting in the corner, thinking about Usagi, and with each passing moment, I felt angered.

"How can he- SHE lie to everyone? Even after we trusted them.." I frowned and crossed my arms.

"Professor Yuy, what are you doing here?"

I turned around and stared at the figure behind me. Tsukino Mamoru.. I should have know you were female.

"Mamoru, let me ask you something.."

"Yes, professor?"

"..Is there something you haven't told anyone in this building?" I asked with as much authority as I could muster and continued to stare at her in the eye. I saw her pale a moment and then shook her head quickly.

"No professor, there's nothing you don't know about me."

"I see." I turned back around and started to head down the stairs.

"Professor. Have you ..HEARD, anything about me?"

"No, I haven't."

+Rei's POV+

How did Yamaki know my true form? Did I give away hints or leave things I shouldn't have? I saw Haruka behind Yamaki and I smiled weakly at her. She whispered a few things in his ear and Yamaki nodded. He bowed at me and followed his cousin.

"Ow!" I fell to the ground as I put too much pressure on my foot.

"Rei, are you okay?!"

Was it from the fight today? Or was it from too much stress? I don't know, all I know was I broke down and started to cry.

+Makoto's POV+

"I see you've gotten your license. How much longer are you going to keep up this lie?" Haruka asked as she stopped me, not too far from Juno.

"I don't know Haruka, I think it'd just be better not to tell them who I really am."

"I don't mean them. I mean Duo and the others."

"You know Duo?"

"Of coarse I do. We used to work in the same junkyard place. All I'm saying Mako, is that you can't live a lie, and instead of just letting it happen on it's own, make it happen now. They'll trust you more that way." She ruffled my hair and left me thinking. Should I tell them the truth?

I spotted Master Chang not far from where I was standing and I started to walk towards him.

"Kino, you did a good job protecting those Onna's. If it weren't for us MEN, they'd have fallen quicker than this." He snapped his fingers and I sighed.

"They aren't that weak. And besides, you can't judge all women just from that few."

"Kino, all women are the same. If they don't have a man next to them protecting them, they'll fall." Hearing this angered me slightly, the person I most looked up to was being shallow.

I stared at him in the eye, "what would you do if I told you I was a woman?"

+Usagi's POV+

I opened my eyes. Did Professor Yuy find something out? Was I too careless? There was a knock at the door and I sighed out, annoyed.

"Come in."

"It's me, Mamoru."

I was surprised to see Professor Yuy come in.

"What are you doing here professor?"

"Who are you?" He demanded.

"Excuse me?"

"I've just looked at a few files about you and your family. It says that there's no one in your family named Tsukino Mamoru."

I froze and stared up at him, shocked at have being found out.

"There was no Mamoru, but there was a Tsukino Usagi. Care to explain? Miss Usagi?"
