All right everyone! This is my first shot at a long term fic! I'm psyched! Sooo…let's get ready to RUMBLE!

As said before, since Rei is my favorite character, and crossovers are just so fun...This is Gundam Wing crossover, with Rei as the main character. However, that doesn't mean that the other Senshi won't play a very important part…This also sheds some light on those Betrayal stories (which I despise, don't worry about it).

Disclaimer: NO I DON'T OWN THEM!!!

The date is After Colony 197. A year after the Mariemea (sp?) incident, peace reigns supreme and the Gundam pilots are merely Preventers, though they kept their famed MS. All five pilots are eighteen, except for Trowa, who is nineteen for reasons of Sailor Star Kindler (that's me, hee hee).

The year is a year after the defeat of Chaos. The inner Senshi are all eighteen, Haruka and Michiru are twenty, Hotaru is fifteen, and Setsuna is ageless though she seems about twenty or twenty-one. And Chibiusa is not in this story because she bugs the crap out of me and I have no clue how to write her.

Anyway.

Our story begins…

            Somewhere, in the myriad strands of time, something broke loose…and twisted. Setsuna glanced backward and gasped. Where there had been one thread, there were now three, and one was horribly mutilated. With growing horror, Setsuna recalled an ancient taboo given to her by the Queen when she was first allowed to guard the threads.

"You must make sure that these are not tampered with by anyone or anything, for they represent the lives of people. If they become entangled, who knows what would happen?" 

            Who knows?

            Elsewhere in the threads of time, malicious laughter could be heard.

            "Finally, I am free!" cackled a strange voice. The source of the voice appeared: a beautiful young lady with long, shining black hair. An exact duplicate of Hino Rei…but for one thing. In the place of Rei's violet orbs, the girl had red eyes.

            "Hino Rei, guardian of the brightest star in the solar system and Goddess of War, you are my first target," she said, and sped off.

            All this trouble, however, was completely unknown to the three girls sipping hot coffee in a café. Ami, Makoto and Usagi had just stepped in out of the terrible March snow, flakes billowing off their shoulders and onto the floor.

            "I wonder where Rei-chan is?" asked Ami anxiously, "She said she'd be here five minutes ago."

            "Ah, calm down, Ami. It's hard to walk through that snow. It'd slow anyone down," said Makoto. A figure slowly making her way through the knee-high snow caught her eye.

            "In fact, there she is now!" Rei shoved through the last bit of snow and quickly pushed open the door, obviously thankful for the warm air inside the café.

            "Ossu, Rei-chan!" said Usagi, smiling broadly, "why'd you want to meet us here?"

            "I…what?" Rei shook her head, betraying blood-red eyes.

            "Rei?" asked Ami shrewdly. "Is there something wrong with your eyes?"

            "First question first," snapped Rei. "I wanted to meet with you because I'm tired of being under that bitch, Usagi's rule all the time. She's such an airhead that I can't stand protecting her any more. I should be the leader of the Senshi! Who's with me?" She opened her fist, revealing a small fireball sitting in the palm of her hand. Drawing back her arm, she hurled it at Usagi, slamming her princess against the wall. Usagi's eyes filled with tears and both Ami and Makoto leapt to their feet, ready to protect Usagi from any further attacks. But Rei turned and walked back out the door.

            "Oh, yeah," she said as parting pleasure, "I'm screwing Mamoru, too." Usagi exploded.

            "That dirty, low-down, boyfriend stealing…" she broke into fresh tears.

            "She must have henshined before she came in and hid it under that coat of hers," mused Ami, "But I thought Rei accepted Usagi as the leader of the Senshi…"

            "You heard her!" shouted Makoto. "That traitor! I can't believe it! All this time, we thought she was on our side and…here she comes again." Rei seemed to be walking back inside. Shaking off snow from her head, she smiled brightly and her eyes took in the scene of wreckage. She walked up to Makoto.

            "What happened, Mako—" was all she could say before a powerful blow caught her in the stomach, knocking her backwards. Makoto had punched her!

            "Mako-chan? What's wrong?" asked Rei angrily.

            "Why did you come here?!" asked Makoto through gritted teeth.

            "I only wanted to talk to you and Usagi!" said Rei. Rei's remark had a huge effect on Makoto. Her friend turned as cold as ice.

            "You wanted to speak to Usagi? You hurt her, and then you come back a minute later to talk to her. Well, I'm sorry. After what you did to her, I'm surprised you're still showing your face around here, you bitch!" With the last word, Makoto looked into Rei's amethyst eyes with cold fury radiating off every line of her body. What did I say? thought Rei frantically. I'm sure I didn't say anything! Unless you count 'odango atama' yesterday…Is she really that hurt over a friendly joke?

            "You've caused Usagi enough pain. I don't want you anywhere near her. You aren't worthy of Usagi's friendship or trust." spat Makoto.

At this point Ami came up, too. "Rei-san," she said coldly, "please leave and don't come back." Rei looked at them both.

"Look, guys, gomen nasai whatever I did, demo—" She was cut off by a powerful blast from where Usagi still lay, sobbing. Rei felt a jerk on her spine and she passed out.

Hiya everyone! That was a hard one to write, because I felt so sorry for Rei…But shape-shifting villains are sooo cool! Do you see that little button on the side? Please press it and submit something positive! Also, I need a little help on pairings. I know it's going to stay Usagi/Mamoru and Haruka/Michiru and I know who Rei's going to be paired with (but it's a secret! Don't tell!)…but I need a little bit of help with Minako, Ami and Makoto.
