Disclaimer: I do not own Gundam Wing or Sailor Moon, if I did, I would've paired Usagi with one of the G-Boys already! (hehe, I ain't hinting who da boy is!)
A/N Minna-san, arigato gozaimashita!! I was really inspired by your kind words! Oh, and I was quite surprised in the amount of votes for the couples! (meaning that I thought Heero would be unsurpassable*sweatdrops*)

Chapter ThreeRescuing Relena
By Angel-Goddess
~*~*~*~*~*~
Usagi jumped out of her Gundam with incredible skill and swiftness, and immediately headed towards the direction where screams of terror were coming from. Shimatta! I just hope that I'm not too late! She thought with a frown, as she ran past, horror-stricken citizens.
A man ran into her, in all the confusion. His eyes were wide with terror, "Where are you going!? There's a monster that way, you may as well run off and save yourself!" he cried at her before running off in the opposite direction.
Usagi cursed under her breath as she saw that the streets were crowded with panicked people, making it hard for her to reach Relena's location. She scowled, and numbly wondered why she was stuck in such a mess. She clenched and unclenched her fist before reminding herself that she was a Gundam Pilot. She heaved a sigh before pushing past the rushing people.
"Kami-sama! Its Miss Relena, the monster has her!!!" screeched a middle-aged lady as she ran past Usagi.
Usagi instantly grabbed the woman's arm, "Please Miss, could you tell me where Relena is?" she asked, in a calm voice.
The woman stared at her, wondering why this unnaturally calm young girl would want to know where the captured Relena was. "The monster has her; in the park somewhere," she said quickly, before disappearing in the crowd.
~*~*~*~*~
The Gundam Pilots were all in class after recess, watching their teacher talking to a lady. All of them were wondering why Usagi had left. Yet they couldn't shake the feeling that something wasn't right. They watched their teacher with interest when he jumped up and ran out of the classroom, only to return with a TV.
He was frowning, "Class, there are some important news," he answered their silent questions.
He switched to the news channel and the whole class immediately gasped – except for Heero and Trowa. The screen showed a huge house sized brown coloured half centipede woman, holding the unconscious Princess of Sanq Kingdom.
When a young woman suddenly appeared, her gun was trailed on the centipede-woman. She was dressed in a tight black tank top, which showed of her womanly curves and short black shorts, which gave anyone an eyeful of her long legs. She had black combat boots and gloves. Beautiful golden hair was up in a tight bun that it was impossible to tell whether her hair was short or long. Since the cameraman wasn't able to get a view from the front, you couldn't see her face. All you could see was her back.
Most of the guys in the class immediately went crazy at the sight of a 'goddess', their hormones were taking them over. Wufei rolled his eyes at the misty-eyed Duo …
Quatre was frowning in disapproval, "What's she doing there? Doesn't she know its dangerous!?" he cried to no one in particular.
Trowa nodded, "Heero, should you send Dr. J an e-mail?" he asked.
"That weak onna is crazy, doesn't she know she'll soon be a flat pancake?" Wufei said in his usual chauvinistic manner.
Heero grunted and sent Dr. J an e-mail asking why they weren't sent on a mission to save the Princess of Sanq Kingdom (A/N for what, the 258th time??).
The class suddenly gasped, attracting the attention of the G-Boys back to the television.
~*~*~*~*~
Usagi jumped up and did a couple of complex flips and twists, successfully dodging the grey gooey blasts that the 'thing' sent in her direction. She watched as the grey goo hit a tree and started bubbling, quickly eating through the bark of the tree. Kuso! Its acid! If I don't be careful, I'll soon turn into a pile of sludge! She thought in alarm.
She shot two bullets straight at the youma, and watched as it just started to laugh in a cold and insane way. Chills ran down her spine before she could suppress it.
"SSSSssstupid girl, did you think that you could kill me with a bunch of toysssss?" it asked her, its voice wavering in an eerie way.
Usagi didn't bother to answer; instead she smirked, and pulled out a hilt of a sword…
~*~*~*~*~
"Nani! That thing doesn't even have a blade! Baka weak onna!" Wufei cried, jumping out of his desk.
A girl next to Wufei glared at him, "Hey! Don't be so sexist, did you see how fast and graceful she was when she dodged that grey stuff? She was amazing!" the girl squealed, her eyes turning into stars, "I'm a big fan of hers already…"
Duo shook his head furiously, "Uh-uh! I'm a bigger fan of hers than you are!" he declared.
Wufei grumbled.
~*~*~*~*~
Usagi smiled fondly at the hilt decorated with a water dragon. She smiled. Ami had given this to her before they had parted.
~*Flashback*~
Ami's usual cheerful blue eyes were now red rimmed, and fresh tears were making their way down her cheeks. "Usa-chan, please promise us that you'll be back once you finish your job in that dimension … please …"
Usagi hugged her blue-haired friend; her own tears were threatening to spill. "I'll miss you so much, of course I'll be back, Ami. Don't worry about me."
Ami sniffled and pulled something out of her subspace pocket. "Here's a little gift from me, I hope that it would be enough to protect you. I put so much time, effort and energy into this sword, just for you…"
Usagi stared at it for a moment, "Demo, its only a hilt …" she said slowly.
A small smile lit Ami's face, "Don't worry, you'll learn how to use it …"
~*~
Usagi's eyes filled with tears for a second or two, before she remembered where she was.
The Youma laughed again, "Oh, I'm sssssoooo ssssscared. The 'sssssword' isssss going to sssslice through me!" It mocked.
Usagi glared, and said in monotone, "Don't you ever say anything bad about weapons forged by the legendary water senshi."
The youma's laughter stopped short. "Sssssenssssshi?" it asked. Before smirking, and tossing the limp body or Relena away.
Usagi gasped, and with a burst of speed, managed to block and catch the older girl's body before it headed straight for the tree without stopping. "Oof!" Usagi wheezed as the full weight of Relena Peacecraft hit her, throwing her back about five metres, before she landed on the ground and hit her head on the tree with a loud thud. Kuso! How much does she weigh exactly!? Ugh, my head hurts! Usagi grimaced, as everything in her vision started to swim.
~*~*~*~*~
The whole class flinched (with the exception of Heero who flinched inwardly.)
In spite of the situation the girl was in, Duo chuckled and shook his head in sympathy, "Poor girl, Relena's weight must've crushed her!" Wufei snickered with half of the class, for once inwardly agreeing with Duo.
"Duo! That's mean!" Quatre cried, horrified.
Heero ignored his comrades, and instead he focused his attention on the girl. He had the strangest feeling he had seen her somewhere before. But she was a complete stranger to him at the same time.
~*~*~*~*~
Usagi blinked a couple of times before her vision cleared. Oh boy, was she pissed. She shoved the limp form of Relena off her and grabbed the hilt that Ami gave to her. "Alright, that's it, you've attacked innocent citizens, kidnapped the princess of Sanq Kingdom, insulted my friend's weapon and even dared to bait Relena! It's time you pay for all the troubles you've caused!"
With that said, Usagi murmured a few words under her breath. The hilt started to glow. Usagi ran over to where the nearest lake was and threw the hilt in.
The youma laughed stupidly, "You really are ssssstupid! Looks like desssssert isssss now sssserv… nani!?" the youma stopped short, seeing that the water in the once-calm lake was now swirling rapidly, a spiral of water shot out, it looked like a tornado, but it was made of water. The water suddenly stopped swirling and a huge splash was heard as something exploded deep within the lake.
Usagi held out her hand and a sword shot out of the water and into her hand. She smirked as she looked at the glowing blue blade.
~*~*~*~*~
The whole class gasped in astonishment. Even Heero had trouble trying to mask his surprise, but since he was the perfect soldier, he was able to hide his amazement.
"So do you still think the sword it pretty gay?" Duo finally asked Wufei, after he found his voice.
Wufei could only shake his head, his eyes never leaving the glowing blue blade.
~*~*~*~*~
Usagi ran at full speed towards the youma, who looked surprised. Usagi raised her sword over her head, crying, "Payback is a bitch!" With only one slash of the glowing blade, the youma screamed and turned into dust.
Usagi huffed and put the hilt in her subspace pocket. Before walking over to the still unconscious Relena.
"Relena, wake up. Relena." Usagi said it in plain monotone. When the Sanq Princess stirred and yawned. Usagi got up and left. The only trace of her being there was a single silver rose, by Relena's feet.
~*~*~*~*~
The whole class was silent that you could hear the wind blowing through the trees. Everyone's jaw was wide open (With a few exceptions, as always). There were a couple of *thumps* from people fainting. A loud screech came from the TV.
"Hhhhhhhhhhheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!" came the screech of the usually peaceful and quiet Relena (A/N *cough, cough*) "I knew you would save me! Awwwww, you even gave me a rose to show that you loved me!!" squealed the ruffled looking girl.
Everyone who was still conscious sweatdropped. Heero grunted and glared at the TV, wishing it would just turn off.
"Argh!" came a cry followed by a bang, just outside the door. A breathless and flushed Usagi entered the classroom, only to find all eyes on her. She turned an even deeper shade of red, "Errr, Gomen nasai, I was out somewhere." She said softly, before retuning to her seat.
"Tsukino, where were you?" the teacher finally asked, trying to regain his composure after such a shock.
"I had remembered something just as my watch alarm went off, so … I went back home." She said lamely.
"You just missed something so amazing!" Duo cried suddenly.
Usagi looked confused. "Nani?"
"This gorgeous girl appeared and saved Relena and killed the monster terrorizing Sanq Kingdom!" Duo shouted.
Usagi winced from the volume of his voice. How did they know … her thoughts stopped when her eyes landed on the TV. She gasped, "Did they see her face?" she asked curiously.
Quatre shook his head, "Iie, the cameraman didn't have a very good angle to shoot from."
Usagi just nodded numbly. Kami-sama! That was close! She thought as relief swept over her.
Unknown to her a suspicious pair of eyes watched her every move…
