Chapter 7
"Attack..."
Usagi sighed for the millionth time that day. She couldn't help but think back to the night that she and Harry spent together. It was such a wonderful night, they ate, they danced and then they..kissed. Usagi couldn't help but blush as she remembered when they kissed. A tingly sensation spread over her lips. She couldn't help but smile and giggle childishly. 'I am acting like a little school girl falling helplessly in love with a guy.' she thought ironically. The kiss felt so much real to Usagi, so much passionate...so much..love than she ever felt before towards a guy. That night was the most romantic night she had ever experienced in her whole life. She sighed yet again, that night happened only three days ago..and still she wanted to spend much more of her time with Harry.
Usagi frowned and looked down at her work, she was supposed to sort things out for Saturdays up coming Summers Day Ball. Uncle Sam decided that it was time to set up a Summers Day ball so that everyone could have a great time. Usagi winced when she saw the time schedule and the planner full off her doodling, 'Harry and Usagi forever!' with lots and lots of small drawings of hearts. Usagi sighed in frustration but still had the decency to blush at her handy work. She crumpled up the pieces of parchments and threw them over to an already over flowing wastebasket full of crumpled up parchments.
Usagi sighed and propped her head on her hand and tried to go back to her work when an image of her and Harry from the other night came flashing into her thoughts. A blush tinged her cheeks as she thought about Harry. Before she drifted into another one of her fantasies she realized something quickly, 'I am falling for a guy who will be staying here for a couple more weeks and then he will be gone in my life forever..'she thought sadly with realization. She knew that this was too good to be true to happen to her. 'I knew it.. this was all too good to be true...' she added silently. She turned her attention towards the loud group of teenagers talking all at the same time. She noticed that Harry was surrounded by his friends and her brother, they are probably still trying to find out what happened on their date. Harry seeming to feel Usagi's gaze looked in her direction and looked at her for a moment. Usagi starred into Harry's emerald green eyes, feeling to be drawn to him strongly, it seemed like it was just the two of them staring into each others eyes. Usagi then smiled at Harry lovingly before breaking their eye contact and then going back to her work. 'As long as Harry is here, I will be happy..I might never get a opportunity to feels so strongly towards a person like I feel towards Harry.' Usagi thought more happily this time.
Harry sighed as he was again bombarded with questions that morning from his friends about what happened during his 'date' with Usagi.
"C'mon, you cant just leave us all out now can you?!" exclaimed Ron loudly.
"Besides it's been already three days, and still you haven't told us everything!" whined Ginny loudly sitting next to Shingo. Both of them have gotten really close over the summer it cold be said that the two of them were already a couple.
"Usagi didn't say anything. She only said to me what time the two of you arrived, and that would be way past midnight! Hmmm, it looks like that something DID happen!" exclaimed Shingo triumphantly.
Harry sighed yet again, this was getting really uncomfortable. 'How long am I going to keep it up?' he asked himself desperately. Yet again something did happen between the two of them, something special. That night would always be written in his memory forever. The kiss..it was the most unforgettable experience in his life. Everything was really perfect. He felt his heart go out for Usagi, he felt strongly connect to her more than anything he has ever felt for her before. It felt much more different than those feelings he held for Cho before. Yet he felt a sudden pang of pain in his heart as he realized something, it will be very soon that he will be leaving Japan, leaving everything behind. Leaving all the happy memories, all the fun and most of all leaving Usagi behind. His hearts desire. 'It'll be soon, then what am I going to do with out her?' he asked himself. This would be probably the first time that he would be dreading the coming of school and going back to school. 'I'll just have to make the most of it then,' he thought sadly. Suddenly he felt that he was being watched and turned to meet beautiful cerulean eyes of Usagi. Harry felt content and happy to look into Usagi's blue eyes. The two of them shared something very special that nobody could ever replace. Usagi smiled lovingly, which he returned with a smile of his own, before she broke contact and went back to her work. Harry sighed contently, a goofy smile was plastered on his face.
"Ohhh! What do we have here?!" said Hermione grinning mischievously at Harry her gaze switching between Harry and Usagi. Her grin broadened when she saw Harry blush crimson when he heard Hermione. The whole group erupted into another fit of laughter and giggles as Harry blushed even redder.
Usagi smiled shaking her head in amusement as she looked at the group of loud teenagers. She noted that some of the customers who were sitting near their table cast nervous glances at them and slowly moved a few tables away from them. Usagi frowned lightly, 'I really don't want to be in Harry's position right now,' Usagi grimaced as she thought about being under interrogation by Hermione, Ron, Ginny and her own brother Shingo. 'I hope Harry keep up with them,' she thought wryly. She cast a glance at her work and frowned at the progress she made. She still needed to go to the owl post and owl a letter to the band, and send out some invitations. She looked down at the magical clock that stood on the desk; it read 'The Owl Post closes in 20 minutes, SO HURRY!' she rolled her eyes at the clock. The clock usually reads the minds of the people who are looking for the specific time but somehow this clock also gave some 'witty' comments aside from giving the time. Usagi grimaced, 'That's why Uncle got it for half the price,' she thought dryly. She grabbed the bundle of letters that she wrote this morning by hand and placed them in her white side bag. She grabbed her long black trench coat and slipped into it, Usagi knew it was going to rain tonight, to it would be better to be prepared. She then turned then turned to the direction of the group of teens,
"Shingo! I'll be out for a while, I still have to send this letters and then buy some other things. Just tell Uncle I'm out and you take my place at the desk for a while okay?" Usagi shouted across the room.
The group stopped talking and harassing Harry and all of them looked in their direction. Shingo stood up and nodded, "Alright, just don't take too long. It's already getting dark." He pointed to the windows, the sky was already turning slightly dark. Harry looked at Usagi frowning slightly, he noted that it might get dangerous walking around in the dark.
Usagi smiled at her very over protective brother, "Yes, yes mother. I will be back, don't worry," she then said her good bye and walked out of the inn without another word.
Harry frowned and looked at Shingo, "Are you sure it's alright for Usagi to be walking around in the dark all alone? Maybe you should have let somebody go with her," he commented.
Shingo shrugged sitting back down next to Ginny, "I don't need to worry, she's old enough to realize those things anyway. And besides she has a pretty good way to protect herself." He said with a mysterious smile on his face. His face then changed and a sly smile appeared and he turned his attention to Harry, "Why? Are you really that concerned about my sister, hmmm? So, are you suggesting that you should go with her then?" he added grinning at Harry.
Harry's eyes widened as he again was caught in a trap by all of them, a blush appeared on his face but he tried to act nonchalant, "I..I.uhhh..probably." he mumbled to himself.
Shingo grinned triumphantly, "Ah ha! Why? So that you two could have a moonlight stroll and end up kissing? Like you did on your date then?!" he said.
Harry sighed, this was going to be a long night..
~ Tengu Alley ~
Usagi walked in a fast pace as she made her way to the owl post in Tengu Alley. She was still out of breath, because from the Inn started to run towards the entrance Tengu Alley so that she still will be able to reach the owl post on time. Now she was walking in a fast manner to the Owl Post, passing by many witches and wizards. There weren't many people on the streets any more since it is already getting dark, but there are still some hurrying about with their shopping's in hand trying to buy their things before the shops would close on them.
Usagi noted that the crocked lampposts on the streets were magically turned on already. 'At least it is safer to walk around at night when there is light by you,' she thought, unconsciously she touched her transformation broach in her pocket, she always brought with her, her broach. She would never leave without it, you never know when something might happen. Usagi smiled in relief when she saw the Owl Post up ahead, breaking into a jog she jogged past some people and reached the owl post in no time at all.
Usagi entered the Owl Post trough the door; a bell ringed announcing her entrance. She room was quite big compared to the outside. There was a long counter with two clerks behind them, and then behind them there were lines, hundreds of hundreds of owls in different sizes, shapes and colors. They all differ in speed or how far away you are sending the letter or how fast you want to letter to arrive. There weren't many people in right now, just an old wizard and a young girl.
Usagi approached the other clerk and smiled brightly at him. "Hi Jeff, thank kami you haven't closed yet!" exclaimed Usagi in relief.
Jeff smiled down brightly at Usagi. He was about 30 years old, a long time friend of the family. "Well we are about to, good thing you came on time," he commented. "So what brings you here?"
"I need these delivered," Usagi said, getting out the bundle of letters from her white side bag. She placed the bundle on the counter and looked up Jeff, "And with the fastest owls please. These are all the invitations for Saturdays Summer Day Ball, these are very important." She added while checking her bag if any other letters were left in there.
Jeff nodded and took the letters, "Alright, that will be 25 galleons and 10 sickles. I'll have them distributed to the owls in a minute, so don't worry." He said.
Usagi nodded, and took out the money and handed it to Jeff. "Thanks, you are a live safer. Those letters were supposed to sent yesterday but I got busy with other things that I forgot to send them." She said smiling her thanks at Jeff. "So, I guess I better go, its getting pretty dark out there and looks like it's going to rain," said Usagi getting ready to leave. "I guess I will see you and Mia at the Ball, then?" she asked. Mia was one of Usagi's classmates at Yatazawa, Mia was one of the regular students who stayed at school. Mia and Usagi are in the same year and the same house and befriended each other. Jeff is Mia's older brother and a friend of Usagi's family.
Jeff nodded his reply, "Yeah, Mia will be so happy to see you again. Bye then, see you on Saturday. Take care of yourself now, it's getting pretty dark out there."
Usagi said her good bye and soon left the Owl Post. As she stepped out of the Owl Post, she was hit by the chilling cold air of the night, good thing she brought her coat. Pulling it more tightly around her she decided to walk home in a normal pace, there was no need to rush and the cool air was soothing her, it helps clear her mind with the many things occupying her. Her thoughts wandered back to the things that happened to her recently, the visits of Harry and the Weasley family, then Mamoru's unexpected turn up and then she falling for Harry and then their date and now her emotions were going haywire inside of her. Usagi sighed in frustration, her life was going in so many different directions lately and she didn't know what to do. Usagi looked around her as she was walking down the almost deserted streets of Tengu alley, there weren't many people around anymore, most of them were already home. She saw people in robes hurry home since it was getting really late and it was about to rain. Usagi saw some shops close up and storeowners lock up their shops and go home as well. It seemed that it was just her alone walking down the streets of the Alley under the soft glow of the many-crocked lamppost. Usagi smiled lightly, 'At least there aren't any attacks anymore and the legendary 'Sailor Senshi' wont have to make an appearance anymore. This time everything is for once quiet and peaceful' she thought contently while walking down the streets. Maybe it was just a coincidence or maybe Usagi must have thought too soon, but something was bound to happen tonight...
~ Somewhere in the deepest, darkest areas in Japan ~
"Wonderful idea Wormtail, wonderful indeed," said a raspy voice, it belonged to none other than Voldemort. He sat in a tall, chair sitting next to a fireplace and looking into the dancing flames as usual. Voldemort grinned evilly, "getting closer to the princess. A change of setting, wonderful idea indeed Wormtail. Coming here to Japan, was a brilliant idea, this gives us a chance to get closer to our little prey."
Behind the chair stood a nervous, trembling Wormtail yet he stood proud behind his master waiting for further instructions. It was his idea to apparate to Japan, to this deserted Warehouse in order to get closer to the Moonchild and be ready to attack her without her noticing anything at all. The warehouse was old, no body dared to enter it anymore in fear that it might collapse on them any minute, a perfect hide out for Voldemort. "Th-th- thank you master," stammered Wormtail still quite afraid of the Dark Lord.
"You have done a great job," announced Voldemort still looking into the fire. He smiled sadistically as if being satisfied of what he is seeing in the fire. Upon closer inspection, the fire showed no one else except Usagi, in her black trench coat walking all alone in the dark night in the deserted streets of Tengu Alley. Voldemort tittered maliciously upon seeing the moonchild all alone, "Doesn't she know that walking all alone in the dark night can be dangerous to little girls like her?" he said in a mocking voice. A evil smile spread across his face, "Then she'll just have to find out the hard way then, shall she?" he announced, he began to laugh evilly upon realizing that his plan for tonight will be fulfilled. Voldemort stood up and turned his attention to a shivering wormtail, "Prepare our little gift for the Moon Princess, I think she will be very surprised upon seeing this one," evil laughter filled the Warehouse afterwards.
Wormtail nodded his baldhead and scurried of to the sides and came right back to Voldemort this time bringing with him a huge monster chained together by many iron chains to refrain it from doing anything unexpected. A trembling Wormtail who was still very afraid of the monster in fear that it might attack him held the chain. The monster started to growl in anger and bared its huge teeth at the trembling wormtail. Wormtail took a step back and looked at the Dark Lord, "He-here i-is the Youma, master," he said in a trembling voice. The youma roared in anger for being bounded up in chains.
Voldemort smiled in satisfaction, "These things shall do good use for us. Now Wormtail, deliver it to the little princess. Let's see what her reaction will be..." He said. Voldemort started laughing evilly as he stared into the flames at the unsuspecting Moon Princess. Behind him, wormtail trembled in fear but soon disapparated along with the youma.
"Lets see what you got, princess..." sneered Voldemort as he took back his seat and stared into the flames.
~Back at Tengu Alley~
Wind started to pick up around Usagi, it ruffled her hair, sending her long French braid flying to the right. Her trench coat billowed around her and she pulled it tighter around her body. She shivered slightly because of cold breeze. 'Looks like its going to rains pretty soon, better hurry up,' thought Usagi, so she started walk a little bit faster. But she soon came to a halt when she saw something move in the shadows. Usagi turned her attention to the very small alley to her right, she was sure something moved in there. Shaking her head and deciding that her mind was playing tricks on her she continued to walk towards the exit of Tengu Alley.
As she was walking, again she saw and this time felt something move in the shadows. Usagi whipped her head to the right and narrowed her eyes at the shadows, 'What the hell?!' her mind screamed. This time she was sure that there was someone or something there watching there. She continued to look around, and this time she was quite aware that the streets were completely deserted now. Not a single witch or wizard in sight, Usagi started to feel panicky, 'Where IS everybody?' she thought. She decided that it would be best to move a little bit faster and get out of Tengu Alley, so she started walking again but this time she was more aware of someone following her. Thinking that it would be no use to stop and look for someone who surely she wouldn't spot, she started to break into a jog.
Her heart was now pounding in her chest in panic, now being fully aware that someone is following her. She could feel the movements behind her in the shadows and that someone was watching her. 'What is happening here?!' she thought in alarm. She could feel that the person, she was sure it was a person, was easily keeping up with her. She broke into a faster jog, the wind hitting her face lightly and her braid flying behind her. 'Kami, what if it is a crazed manic trying to rape me?! I don't want to be raped and get killed!' she thought, she now felt like crying. Why, oh, why didn't she asked someone to go with her before maybe she wouldn't be in this kind of situation. Cold sweat appeared on her forehead, she could hear the footsteps jogging behind her, harsh breathing behind her. The footsteps sounded as if they were not only fro one pair but more, like two! 'Kami! This is a gang!' she thought alarmed. She now broke into a full run, fully aware that the people were now right behind her, she didn't dare to look behind her in fear of getting a surprise attack. She stared full ahead and run as fast as he could towards the exit of Tengu Alley, she was more than happy to see that the wall was just a few feet away from her. Usagi then realized something, 'Why am I running? I know how to defend myself, hell, I AM Sailor Moon, Fighter and defender for Justice. I know how to fight,' she thought scolding herself, if she knew how to fight a youma then fighting a group of crazed sexual maniacs will a synch. But after realizing this, she noted that the running behind her stopped, the harsh and ragged breathing stopped also as is they were gone.
Usagi stopped running and without thinking turned around to search for the groupies. But as she turned around she saw nothing, no one at all. The streets were deserted, there was only the soft glow of the lamps and soft howling of the wind but not a soul in sight. Usagi frowned, 'Where are they? I am sure somebody followed me,' she thought suspiciously. She turned to her right and looked into the very small dark alley, she narrowed her eyes and continued to stare into the small alley. She felt someone was there, she felt someone watching her, she felt it's presence. Usagi took a step back, taken aback by the powerful aura that someone radiated. 'Who the hell is this?' she thought.
"Hello?! Anybody there?" she shouted into the alley.
Just then Usagi heard a growl coming from the small alley. Usagi gasped in surprise and took another step backward. 'This doesn't sound like a person at all,' thought Usagi, her eyes growing wide in fear. And then without warning, two blood red eyes snapped open in the darkness and stared hungrily at Usagi. Usagi yelped and took several steps backward, 'This is definitely NOT a person,' she said to herself. The eyes stared at her hungrily, not blinking at all but they continued to stare into Usagi's blue eyes. Usagi then realized what that 'thing' was. 'Youma!' her mind screamed. "Youma," whispered Usagi into the night as she watched the eyes.
Then in a blink of an eye, the youma disappeared out of the darkness and directly attacked Usagi, without giving her a chance to react at all. A scream of pain filled the night as the youma sunk its long, sharp teeth into Usagi's left arm, that she used to shield her face. The youma was now holding her down on the ground, lying on top of her, with it's heavy weight crushing her to the hard concrete. Usagi had no time to react as the youma charged on her sending her crashing to the ground, she was only able to raise her left arm to protect her face from being bitten off by it's huge fangs. She felt blood trickle down her arm and drip onto her face. Usagi winced in pain as the youma sunk it's teeth in deeper into her arm, it seemed to enjoy the taste of her blood.
Usagi was fully aware of a huge youma crushing her to the ground and biting into her arm as if it were a steak, she felt the pain through out her body. It's face was hovering above hears and she felts it's smelly breath against her face. 'Looks like you need to brush your teeth,' thought Usagi wryly still trying to ignore the pain. She tried to free herself from under the youma but she slowly felt her strength disappear from all the blood loss and it slowly started to suck her life energy. She tried to reach her broach, which was in the pocket of her coat, with her right arm but her arm was crushed underneath all the weight and the pocket was still to far away.
She was slowly loosing her strength when she became aware of a person walking out of the darkened alley. She saw that it was a short, bald man with black robes. He approached them and he looked very much pleased of what he saw. What shocked Usagi the most was that his one hand was silver; it carried a glass flask with a cork. She saw that there was an evil glint in his beady eyes as he was close enough for Usagi to see. Now he stood right next to her face, he then crouched beside her. His beady eyes in level with her scared blue ones.
"Who..who are you?" was all Usagi could muster before she winced in pain as she once again became aware of the pain of a youma crushing her against the ground and biting into her left arm, draining her from all her life energy.
The bald man laughed in an evil manner, seeming to enjoy what he is seeing. His eyes swept over to the face of the youma whose mouth was now covered in crimson blood. He turned his face to Usagi and grinned, "Call me Wormtail," he said in a quivering sort of voice. Usagi wasn't able to say anything at all, she just continued to stare at him and then at the flask in his silver hand.
"What do you want?" she asked in an exhausted voice, finally speaking again.
Wormtail shrugged and then grinned, flashing her his yellow teeth, "Just a little donation, that's all," he answered. He then took off the cork of the glassed flask. He held the flask right under Usagi's left arm, letting the blood solely drip into it. Usagi watched in terror as the flask slowly filled with her own blood. After a few minutes, the flask was full and wormtail removed it from under her arm and examined it with satisfaction. He then placed the cork back on it and stood up, not looking at Usagi anymore. He held the flask up against the light of the lamp and looked at it again and then grinned in sheer pleasure at the fine work he had done. "The Dark Lord shall be very happy for this," he announced finally.
Usagi's eyes grew wide in pure terror upon hearing those words. 'The Dark Lord! Voldemort!' she thought alarmed. She watched Wormtail place the flask into his robe pockets and turned around to face them.
"I will be going now, thank you for the donation. The Dark Lord will be very happy for it," he announced. He then looked at the youma, narrowing his beady eyes, "I will leave you with her, but remember what the master has said. Do not kill her, she still is very important to him." His expression changed form angry to an evil smile, "Now you have fun now, just don't kill her." he added and then with that he disapparated leaving Usagi with the youma.
Usagi stared in shock at the place where Wormtail used to stand holding her blood in a flask. 'Oh no, no, no this cant be happening. He is in league with Voldemort!' her mind screamed. She then turned her attention at the youma who still had its teeth in her arm. Usagi narrowed her eyes, feeling a new determination grow within her, the Dark Lord is here and this is no time for her to get bitten by a youma. Then with much force she hit the unsuspecting youma with her right leg, hitting it with her right knee with so much force that she sent it flying across the street.
Usagi gasped in pain as she felt the heavy weight being removed from her small body. She took few gasps of much needed cool air before slowly standing up. She winced in pain her left arm hurt like hell, the wound was really deep and blood continued to gush out of it. Her body ached everywhere because of the heavy weight of the youma, but luckily nothing was broken. 'Now this is going to leave some marks,' she thought dryly surprised that she still could think this way even in times like these. She stared at the youma, it was still disoriented by the sudden blow it received from Usagi and slowly stood up. Usagi smiled triumphantly she still was surprised at her own strength. She then narrowed her eyes, it was time that Sailor Moon showed her face again. Looking around to make sure no one was looking and watching, Usagi pulled out her transformation broach.
"Moon Eternal Make up!" and with a flash of bright light and feathers there in Usagi's place there stood Sailor Moon. Her French braid was released and again, her two 'odangos' were back. She looked down at her left arm and grimaced in pain, the wound was still there and the white glove was slowly turning crimson. There was a slight difference in her appearance, like her wings were now real. Two beautiful white wings sprouted from her back, the feathers rippled in the soft wind and they were as soft as they looked. And she now owned a long silver staff; it looks like the same one Sailor Galaxia shattered in their last battle. The staff had pearls embedded around it, with multi-colored gems embedded on top of the staff. 'No time for corny speeches,' she thought finally.
The youma had already recovered and now was standing a few feet away Sailor Moon, eyeing her with an evil sneer. It licked its lips as if tasting the blood that was still tinted on its mouth.
"Talk about ugly," muttered Sailor Moon examining the youma infront of her for the first time. The youma was huge alright, it was big in built. It had huge long teeth, which dripped with blood. It had blood red eyes and long arms that had sharp, long claws at the end. Along its back it had long purple spikes that run down at his back. All in all it looked like most ordinary youma but this one had more power to it. Sailor Moon thought about her odds, 'Well, at least its one on one. But still I'm still in a LOT of trouble,' she thought.
The youma slowly began to advance on her, licking its lips sadistically. Never taking its eyes from Sailor Moon. Then suddenly it charged Sailor Moon at top speed. Sailor Moon being very surprised at the sudden movement was still able to react and quickly jump out of the way and land on top of one of the lampposts. 'At least I improved in fighting, good thing I listened to Luna and Artemis, I really need to thank them when this is over,' she thought while she stood on top of the lamp, she faintly felt the warm heat of the lamp. She felt really tired and the pain in her arm was killing her but she needed to finish off this youma. From the top of the post she looked down at the youma, it was circling the post trying to figure out how to get up there, 'good thing that those youmas are not bright up there,' added Sailor Moon. She then looked around the streets and for the first time she realized something very important, where were all the people? Wouldn't they have heard her scream earlier? Wouldn't the people be aware that there was a youma lose in the streets of Tengu Alley? What happened to all the witches and wizards?
"Where are all the people?" she whispered looking around again. Suddenly the pole shook and Sailor Moon lost her balance, she fell directly on the hard concrete landing rather ungracefully on her butt. "OW!" she shrieked in pain as her left arm came in contact with the ground. She looked up and saw that the youma was the one who caused her to fall, it was still gripping the pole with both of it's hairy hands, evidently it was the one shaking it. It let go of the post and then very slowly advanced her. An evil sneer appeared on its face.
Sailor Moon stared at in shock she tried to stand up but he clumsy side showed again and she slipped and fell back down on the ground. And before she knew it, it started to rain, hard, making it even harder for her to stand up. She backed away trying to slowly crawl away from the youma, still keeping an eye on it occasionally trying to stand up but the pain in her left arm was distracting her too much. Rain was pouring down on the two of them harder, pelting big fat drops of rain on the two of them. The youma was now in attacking range with her but what Sailor Moon didn't expect was that it didn't attack at all, instead it just stood there, all wet, and continued to stare at her with an evil glint in its red eyes. And what it did the next shocked her the most, it began to talk.
"The people were not harmed," said the youma in a deep harsh voice. An evil smile formed on its lips, "Well not yet," he added.
Sailor Moon stared at the youma fully in shock, so it understood her! It had a mind, it understood her! She ignored that thunder that crashed in the background, and asked the youma in a small voice, "What happened to them?"
"Master Wormtail cast a spell, a spell that would make the people think that they should leave. Leave this place for now, so that everything shall go as planned and everything went as planned perfectly." Answered the youma in a sinister voice.
Sailor Moon wanted to ask the youma some more questions, she opened her mouth to ask another question but soon closed it. The youma looked up into the sky, the rain came down faster than ever and thunder crashed in the background. Then in a blink of an eye the youma disappeared, not leaving a trace of it behind at all.
"What the..."Muttered Sailor Moon staring at the spot where the youma stood only seconds ago. The rain was starting to pour down harder and it made it difficult for her too see. She stood up, wobbling a bit, her head felt heavy and every part of her body ached. She looked down onto her left arm and winced as she felt the pain, blood was still flowing from the huge wound. She felt queasy and ready to faint from the lack of blood. 'Time to get home, they are all probably wondering where I am right now,' thought Sailor Moon, she was about to jump to the nearest rooftop when she heard gasps from behind.
"Oh my gosh! Sailor Moon!" exclaimed a loud voice behind her.
Sailor Moon turned around in surprise and found lots of people crowded behind her. People from all around were slowly coming back out, looking into the streets from windows. Witches and wizards were slowly filling up the streets and staring at Sailor Moon in pure shock. 'Looks like when that Wormtail character and the youma disappeared, the spell that they put on them must have been broken,' Usagi reasoned.
"She's back! She's back!" Usagi heard shouts come from behind her. "She saved up all!" "Did you see the youma?" Usagi heard different exclaims from behind. Sailor Moon sighed, 'Looks like the Daily Mystic will have a great cover story,' thought Usagi dryly.
Sailor Moon got ready to jump to the nearest roof top as reports came rushing to her, with their flashing cameras taking pictures of her. Landing unsteadily on the top of one of the stores, Usagi looked down at the witches and wizards, she noted that some of them still looked very dazed and some are still under shock but all in all they are all pretty normal. Deciding that the best way of returning back to the inn would be just to jump from roof top to roof top instead of flying there or teleporting, because she was still very tired and teleporting and flying would just cost too much of her energy. Then in swift movements, Usagi started to jump from one rooftop to another, leaving behind an astonishment group of people.
~Back at the Magic Room~
Shingo looked up at the grandfather clock for the 5th time, concern written all over his face, it was now 9:30 and still no Usagi at all. 'Something must have come up,' he reasoned. Shingo looked around the inn, guest were still sitting in the lounge doing some small talks and playing Magic Poker, like they always do every Tuesday.
"It's getting really late you know, and Usagi still hasn't shown up," said Harry breaking into Shingo's thoughts. He was equally concerned as well.
"You think something might have happened," asked Ginny looking at Shingo with concern in her eyes.
Shingo sighed, "Nothing, nothing happened. Nothing bad happens around here anymore," he assured, also trying to assure himself. 'I hope,' he added to himself.
"Maybe she meet up with some friends and she lost track of time," suggested Hermione, putting down her book and also looking up at the grandfather clock.
"Well, mum and dad are also getting late. Do you think they found something at the Ministry?" asked Ron after dealing out the cards of exploding snap.
Harry shrugged and looked out the window, the rain was pouring down like buckets and by now the window was howling loudly. 'What could have happened?' he asked himself.
"Shingo, where is your sister?! She should have been back by now!" said Sam as he passed by and looked down at Shingo expecting an answer. He looked really stressed out because of the preparations of the ball. "I need her to help me with the paper work, urgh! When she gets back, she's gonna get an ear full!" rambled on Sam while stalking towards the receptionist desk and shuffling through some papers.
Shingo sighed again not paying any attention at all to the cards that he was holding, 'Where the hell are you Usagi?!' he thought angrily.
~Usagi's Room~
Sailor Moon sighed in relief as she reached her open window of her bedroom. Carefully she climbed through the window, being careful not to make any noise at all. As she entered her room, Luna and Artemis were sitting on her bed, they looked at her alarmed as they saw her as Sailor Moon. Usagi placed a gloved finger on her lips and made a Shhh sound so that they wouldn't make any sound. The two lunarian cats nodded , shock written all over the kitty faces. Sailor Moon now stood in the middle of her room and dehenshined.
Usagi groaned loudly and sat on her bed, trying to let everything come in focus. She now felt the pain of her left arm stronger that before, since a great deal of her energy has been taken away because of her detransformation. She was wet to the bone, her clothes stuck to her body like they were her second skin and her coat was torn and shredded in different places. And mostly her clothes were covered in blood. Usagi groaned even louder and fell completely on the bed feeling as exhausted as ever.
"Usagi?! What happened?" asked a concerned Luna.
"Was there an attack?" asked an equally concerned Artemis. Both of them were standing right next to the lying form of Usagi on the bed.
Usagi groaned again, "Yes, there was an attack. A surprise attack," she mumbled slowly. Usagi then stood up, and took of her coat. She threw it on the floor, were it lay in a tangled heap soaking wet the left arm covered in blood. Her blue long sleeved sweater was also torn and a bit wet. The left arm was stained with blood and it clung to her possessively. Usagi winced as she tentatively touched her arm.
"Your hurt!" exclaimed Luna in shock, she quickly jumped off the bed and unto to the dresser to have a better look on the wound.
"We should get that bandaged up first or else it will get infected," suggested Artemis. "Lets go to the bathroom and wash it up a bit," he added.
Usagi nodded numbly, everything happened so fast around that night that she now felt really dazed as realization hit her. 'He's back,' were the only words that kept repeating in her mind. She followed Artemis and Luna into her own bathroom and went directly to the sink. Artemis went to look for some bandages, while Luna instructed Usagi to take of her sweater. She then took of her sweater, leaving her only in her bra and pants. Usagi gasped in pain as the fabric of her sweater was removed from the huge wound on her arm. Her eyes grew wide as she saw the wound, it was quite a big wound and little blood trickled down her arm.
"Oh my," whispered Luna as she saw the wound. Usagi had a lot of explaining to do, that was for sure.
Usagi placed her arm under the warm water and let the blood wash off. She whimpered as she felt the burning sensation. Artemis soon arrived afterwards and they all set to tend to her wound.
After a long while, a dried up Usagi, wearing a new long sleeved green sweater and a pair of shorts sat on her bed looking as exhausted as ever. Nearby sat a ruffled up Artemis, glaring daggers at Usagi, and Luna who still had a questioning look on her face.
"You really shouldn't have thrown me across the room," muttered Artemis while tending to his ruffled up fur.
Usagi smiled sheepishly, "Sorry, I just had to grab something...you know how much the wound hurt," she said grinning at the while feline.
Artemis sighed and jumped on the bed, "Well alright," he mumbled. His face turned serious this time and looked at Usagi expectantly. "So now, tell us what happened," he said in a solemn voice.
"Yes, tell us. We would like to know what happened," urged Luna placing a paw on Usagi's right leg and looking up at her expectantly.
Usagi sighed, telling everything that happened would be hard. She really hated telling someone what happened during a battle because they would only bring back painful memories from before. She closed her eyes and leaned her head against the headboard of her bed, her left arm was placed on a fluffy pillow to avoid it from being moved too much. Usagi took in a deep breath, trying to relax her nerves just a little bit, and then she began to the two expectant lunar cats of what happened only an hour ago.
After relaying the whole story, there was a heavy silence in the room. Each of them lost in their own thoughts, thinking up reasons what Wormtail wanted with Usagi's blood. Usagi sighed as she watched her two cat advisers converse amongst themselves. She still felt tired and now also very sleepy, her energy was all drained out and she felt ready to sleep. Usagi leaned her head against the head board of her bed and closed her eyes, she let everything soak in, Voldemort has made his move, battles will again rise, Wormtail, his servant, had attacked, the youma attacked, it almost killed her if it hasn't been for Wormtail who told it not to kill her, the youma would have surely killed Usagi. Voldemort has risen to power, he wants her, her power, her being..he wants Serenity. Usagi sighed, she hated all of this, all the fighting, and all the trouble all because of her, her and that damned crystal and stupid future and past. Why would everyone go through so much trouble to get to her? Everything always happens because of her, and she hated it. 'What's wrong with me? Do I carry a sign that says 'Hey! I have power, go ahead and try to kill/get me! Or better yet, why don't you just take my whole being?!' I practically attract evil,' she thought dryly. She groaned loudly as she realized how tired she really was and looked down at her two cats. One question lingered in her mind that she was dying to ask.
"Why did that Wormtail guy want my blood?" Usagi asked frowning lightly.
Luna sighed, she too was very tired and stressed out, "We don't know," she said in a small voice. "In some twisted way, Voldemort has found use of your blood that we don't know about,"
"I am probably guessing the reason that Voldemort wants your blood is because of the power that is within in," added Artemis. "In your whole body power is flowing within you, so I am just guessing that he wants just a little bit of that power that you posses and use it in some way or another that we have no idea about,"
"So are you saying he is going to take my power little by little?" asked Usagi frowning.
"No, he wanted your blood tonight to satisfy his craving for your power..and of you..." answered Luna she let her voice fade at the last part but everyone heard it.
Usagi let her eyes drop, an eerie feeling swept over her, "Oh," she breathed in a tiny voice.
"Maybe we should contact the others.."
"No!" interrupted Usagi suddenly, "No Luna we cant, the inners already have their own lives, they don't want to fight and be senshis anymore. You know very well that they have up being a senshi. It is up to the outers if they want to come and help, this is my battle and I should know how to face it on my own. It is my duty as future queen, I should learn to face my own battles." She said sternly.
Luna sighed, "alright, as you wish,"
"You know, a big battle will lie ahead for all of us," said Artemis with a serious expression. There was a long and heavy silence before he continued, "We should be prepared, we don't know when Voldemort will attack again and maybe the next time he will get more than your blood,"
Usagi looked away, she knew exactly what he meant and she didn't like it.
"It's time you get some sleep, you look tired. This night has taken away too much of your energy, better get some rest. We will discuss this tomorrow." Said Luna finally as she noticed Usagi looked very tired and ready to fall asleep.
Usagi nodded, she pulled the covers up to her and reached out for her bedside lamp and turned off the light. He faintly heard Luna and Artemis say got night to her, she replied her good night in a small voice. Usagi lay there in the dark looking up at the ceiling, her mind still thinking about the past hours events. Her whole body ached like hell because of the oversized youma crushing her to the ground and her left arm throbbed in pain against in the white bandages. 'A big battle will lie ahead, a really big one,' she thought as she starred up at the ceiling. Then very slowly she drifted to sleep, not remembering that people downstairs were worried about her whereabouts.
~ Somewhere in Japan ~
"Good Wormtail, well done!" said Voldemort as he examined the blood filled flask in his hands. Before him stood wormtail standing quite proudly. He then removed the cork and raised the flask to his lips. Voldemort began to drink the blood until the whole flask was empty. A single line of blood trickled down his chin. Wormtail watched in sheer pleasure as his master drank the blood and afterwards grin in satisfaction. His eyes grew wide and he felt an immense energy flow throughout his body. Voldemort watched in satisfaction as his own hands slowly gained more strength and they were no longer skin and bones. His whole body changed, except his face, which still had the snake like appearance. Power surged throughout his body, giving him all the strength he needed.
"This will last me for a while before we do our next attack," said Voldemort smiling evilly in satisfaction. He raised his hand holding his wand and examined it, "Until we get the Moon princess and her power, this will give me enough strength to make an even better attack, well done Wormtail, well done in deed," he announced.
"Thank you master, thank you. But when shall we attack next?" asked wormtail in an eager voice.
"Patience my dear Wormtail, patience. Everything will just workout fine, we will wait for a while and then we attack," answered Voldemort as evil energy pulsated from him. "And then, the little Moon princess and her power shall be mine, all mine," Voldemort began to laugh, his evil laughter echoing throughout the abandoned warehouse. "Mine, all mine..Hahaha!" his evil laughter made the warehouse seem hallow and lifeless as it echoed throughout it.

Chapter 7
"Attack..."
Usagi sighed for the millionth time that day. She couldn't help but think back to the night that she and Harry spent together. It was such a wonderful night, they ate, they danced and then they..kissed. Usagi couldn't help but blush as she remembered when they kissed. A tingly sensation spread over her lips. She couldn't help but smile and giggle childishly. 'I am acting like a little school girl falling helplessly in love with a guy.' she thought ironically. The kiss felt so much real to Usagi, so much passionate...so much..love than she ever felt before towards a guy. That night was the most romantic night she had ever experienced in her whole life. She sighed yet again, that night happened only three days ago..and still she wanted to spend much more of her time with Harry.
Usagi frowned and looked down at her work, she was supposed to sort things out for Saturdays up coming Summers Day Ball. Uncle Sam decided that it was time to set up a Summers Day ball so that everyone could have a great time. Usagi winced when she saw the time schedule and the planner full off her doodling, 'Harry and Usagi forever!' with lots and lots of small drawings of hearts. Usagi sighed in frustration but still had the decency to blush at her handy work. She crumpled up the pieces of parchments and threw them over to an already over flowing wastebasket full of crumpled up parchments.
Usagi sighed and propped her head on her hand and tried to go back to her work when an image of her and Harry from the other night came flashing into her thoughts. A blush tinged her cheeks as she thought about Harry. Before she drifted into another one of her fantasies she realized something quickly, 'I am falling for a guy who will be staying here for a couple more weeks and then he will be gone in my life forever..'she thought sadly with realization. She knew that this was too good to be true to happen to her. 'I knew it.. this was all too good to be true...' she added silently. She turned her attention towards the loud group of teenagers talking all at the same time. She noticed that Harry was surrounded by his friends and her brother, they are probably still trying to find out what happened on their date. Harry seeming to feel Usagi's gaze looked in her direction and looked at her for a moment. Usagi starred into Harry's emerald green eyes, feeling to be drawn to him strongly, it seemed like it was just the two of them staring into each others eyes. Usagi then smiled at Harry lovingly before breaking their eye contact and then going back to her work. 'As long as Harry is here, I will be happy..I might never get a opportunity to feels so strongly towards a person like I feel towards Harry.' Usagi thought more happily this time.
Harry sighed as he was again bombarded with questions that morning from his friends about what happened during his 'date' with Usagi.
"C'mon, you cant just leave us all out now can you?!" exclaimed Ron loudly.
"Besides it's been already three days, and still you haven't told us everything!" whined Ginny loudly sitting next to Shingo. Both of them have gotten really close over the summer it cold be said that the two of them were already a couple.
"Usagi didn't say anything. She only said to me what time the two of you arrived, and that would be way past midnight! Hmmm, it looks like that something DID happen!" exclaimed Shingo triumphantly.
Harry sighed yet again, this was getting really uncomfortable. 'How long am I going to keep it up?' he asked himself desperately. Yet again something did happen between the two of them, something special. That night would always be written in his memory forever. The kiss..it was the most unforgettable experience in his life. Everything was really perfect. He felt his heart go out for Usagi, he felt strongly connect to her more than anything he has ever felt for her before. It felt much more different than those feelings he held for Cho before. Yet he felt a sudden pang of pain in his heart as he realized something, it will be very soon that he will be leaving Japan, leaving everything behind. Leaving all the happy memories, all the fun and most of all leaving Usagi behind. His hearts desire. 'It'll be soon, then what am I going to do with out her?' he asked himself. This would be probably the first time that he would be dreading the coming of school and going back to school. 'I'll just have to make the most of it then,' he thought sadly. Suddenly he felt that he was being watched and turned to meet beautiful cerulean eyes of Usagi. Harry felt content and happy to look into Usagi's blue eyes. The two of them shared something very special that nobody could ever replace. Usagi smiled lovingly, which he returned with a smile of his own, before she broke contact and went back to her work. Harry sighed contently, a goofy smile was plastered on his face.
"Ohhh! What do we have here?!" said Hermione grinning mischievously at Harry her gaze switching between Harry and Usagi. Her grin broadened when she saw Harry blush crimson when he heard Hermione. The whole group erupted into another fit of laughter and giggles as Harry blushed even redder.
Usagi smiled shaking her head in amusement as she looked at the group of loud teenagers. She noted that some of the customers who were sitting near their table cast nervous glances at them and slowly moved a few tables away from them. Usagi frowned lightly, 'I really don't want to be in Harry's position right now,' Usagi grimaced as she thought about being under interrogation by Hermione, Ron, Ginny and her own brother Shingo. 'I hope Harry keep up with them,' she thought wryly. She cast a glance at her work and frowned at the progress she made. She still needed to go to the owl post and owl a letter to the band, and send out some invitations. She looked down at the magical clock that stood on the desk; it read 'The Owl Post closes in 20 minutes, SO HURRY!' she rolled her eyes at the clock. The clock usually reads the minds of the people who are looking for the specific time but somehow this clock also gave some 'witty' comments aside from giving the time. Usagi grimaced, 'That's why Uncle got it for half the price,' she thought dryly. She grabbed the bundle of letters that she wrote this morning by hand and placed them in her white side bag. She grabbed her long black trench coat and slipped into it, Usagi knew it was going to rain tonight, to it would be better to be prepared. She then turned then turned to the direction of the group of teens,
"Shingo! I'll be out for a while, I still have to send this letters and then buy some other things. Just tell Uncle I'm out and you take my place at the desk for a while okay?" Usagi shouted across the room.
The group stopped talking and harassing Harry and all of them looked in their direction. Shingo stood up and nodded, "Alright, just don't take too long. It's already getting dark." He pointed to the windows, the sky was already turning slightly dark. Harry looked at Usagi frowning slightly, he noted that it might get dangerous walking around in the dark.
Usagi smiled at her very over protective brother, "Yes, yes mother. I will be back, don't worry," she then said her good bye and walked out of the inn without another word.
Harry frowned and looked at Shingo, "Are you sure it's alright for Usagi to be walking around in the dark all alone? Maybe you should have let somebody go with her," he commented.
Shingo shrugged sitting back down next to Ginny, "I don't need to worry, she's old enough to realize those things anyway. And besides she has a pretty good way to protect herself." He said with a mysterious smile on his face. His face then changed and a sly smile appeared and he turned his attention to Harry, "Why? Are you really that concerned about my sister, hmmm? So, are you suggesting that you should go with her then?" he added grinning at Harry.
Harry's eyes widened as he again was caught in a trap by all of them, a blush appeared on his face but he tried to act nonchalant, "I..I.uhhh..probably." he mumbled to himself.
Shingo grinned triumphantly, "Ah ha! Why? So that you two could have a moonlight stroll and end up kissing? Like you did on your date then?!" he said.
Harry sighed, this was going to be a long night..
~ Tengu Alley ~
Usagi walked in a fast pace as she made her way to the owl post in Tengu Alley. She was still out of breath, because from the Inn started to run towards the entrance Tengu Alley so that she still will be able to reach the owl post on time. Now she was walking in a fast manner to the Owl Post, passing by many witches and wizards. There weren't many people on the streets any more since it is already getting dark, but there are still some hurrying about with their shopping's in hand trying to buy their things before the shops would close on them.
Usagi noted that the crocked lampposts on the streets were magically turned on already. 'At least it is safer to walk around at night when there is light by you,' she thought, unconsciously she touched her transformation broach in her pocket, she always brought with her, her broach. She would never leave without it, you never know when something might happen. Usagi smiled in relief when she saw the Owl Post up ahead, breaking into a jog she jogged past some people and reached the owl post in no time at all.
Usagi entered the Owl Post trough the door; a bell ringed announcing her entrance. She room was quite big compared to the outside. There was a long counter with two clerks behind them, and then behind them there were lines, hundreds of hundreds of owls in different sizes, shapes and colors. They all differ in speed or how far away you are sending the letter or how fast you want to letter to arrive. There weren't many people in right now, just an old wizard and a young girl.
Usagi approached the other clerk and smiled brightly at him. "Hi Jeff, thank kami you haven't closed yet!" exclaimed Usagi in relief.
Jeff smiled down brightly at Usagi. He was about 30 years old, a long time friend of the family. "Well we are about to, good thing you came on time," he commented. "So what brings you here?"
"I need these delivered," Usagi said, getting out the bundle of letters from her white side bag. She placed the bundle on the counter and looked up Jeff, "And with the fastest owls please. These are all the invitations for Saturdays Summer Day Ball, these are very important." She added while checking her bag if any other letters were left in there.
Jeff nodded and took the letters, "Alright, that will be 25 galleons and 10 sickles. I'll have them distributed to the owls in a minute, so don't worry." He said.
Usagi nodded, and took out the money and handed it to Jeff. "Thanks, you are a live safer. Those letters were supposed to sent yesterday but I got busy with other things that I forgot to send them." She said smiling her thanks at Jeff. "So, I guess I better go, its getting pretty dark out there and looks like it's going to rain," said Usagi getting ready to leave. "I guess I will see you and Mia at the Ball, then?" she asked. Mia was one of Usagi's classmates at Yatazawa, Mia was one of the regular students who stayed at school. Mia and Usagi are in the same year and the same house and befriended each other. Jeff is Mia's older brother and a friend of Usagi's family.
Jeff nodded his reply, "Yeah, Mia will be so happy to see you again. Bye then, see you on Saturday. Take care of yourself now, it's getting pretty dark out there."
Usagi said her good bye and soon left the Owl Post. As she stepped out of the Owl Post, she was hit by the chilling cold air of the night, good thing she brought her coat. Pulling it more tightly around her she decided to walk home in a normal pace, there was no need to rush and the cool air was soothing her, it helps clear her mind with the many things occupying her. Her thoughts wandered back to the things that happened to her recently, the visits of Harry and the Weasley family, then Mamoru's unexpected turn up and then she falling for Harry and then their date and now her emotions were going haywire inside of her. Usagi sighed in frustration, her life was going in so many different directions lately and she didn't know what to do. Usagi looked around her as she was walking down the almost deserted streets of Tengu alley, there weren't many people around anymore, most of them were already home. She saw people in robes hurry home since it was getting really late and it was about to rain. Usagi saw some shops close up and storeowners lock up their shops and go home as well. It seemed that it was just her alone walking down the streets of the Alley under the soft glow of the many-crocked lamppost. Usagi smiled lightly, 'At least there aren't any attacks anymore and the legendary 'Sailor Senshi' wont have to make an appearance anymore. This time everything is for once quiet and peaceful' she thought contently while walking down the streets. Maybe it was just a coincidence or maybe Usagi must have thought too soon, but something was bound to happen tonight...
~ Somewhere in the deepest, darkest areas in Japan ~
"Wonderful idea Wormtail, wonderful indeed," said a raspy voice, it belonged to none other than Voldemort. He sat in a tall, chair sitting next to a fireplace and looking into the dancing flames as usual. Voldemort grinned evilly, "getting closer to the princess. A change of setting, wonderful idea indeed Wormtail. Coming here to Japan, was a brilliant idea, this gives us a chance to get closer to our little prey."
Behind the chair stood a nervous, trembling Wormtail yet he stood proud behind his master waiting for further instructions. It was his idea to apparate to Japan, to this deserted Warehouse in order to get closer to the Moonchild and be ready to attack her without her noticing anything at all. The warehouse was old, no body dared to enter it anymore in fear that it might collapse on them any minute, a perfect hide out for Voldemort. "Th-th- thank you master," stammered Wormtail still quite afraid of the Dark Lord.
"You have done a great job," announced Voldemort still looking into the fire. He smiled sadistically as if being satisfied of what he is seeing in the fire. Upon closer inspection, the fire showed no one else except Usagi, in her black trench coat walking all alone in the dark night in the deserted streets of Tengu Alley. Voldemort tittered maliciously upon seeing the moonchild all alone, "Doesn't she know that walking all alone in the dark night can be dangerous to little girls like her?" he said in a mocking voice. A evil smile spread across his face, "Then she'll just have to find out the hard way then, shall she?" he announced, he began to laugh evilly upon realizing that his plan for tonight will be fulfilled. Voldemort stood up and turned his attention to a shivering wormtail, "Prepare our little gift for the Moon Princess, I think she will be very surprised upon seeing this one," evil laughter filled the Warehouse afterwards.
Wormtail nodded his baldhead and scurried of to the sides and came right back to Voldemort this time bringing with him a huge monster chained together by many iron chains to refrain it from doing anything unexpected. A trembling Wormtail who was still very afraid of the monster in fear that it might attack him held the chain. The monster started to growl in anger and bared its huge teeth at the trembling wormtail. Wormtail took a step back and looked at the Dark Lord, "He-here i-is the Youma, master," he said in a trembling voice. The youma roared in anger for being bounded up in chains.
Voldemort smiled in satisfaction, "These things shall do good use for us. Now Wormtail, deliver it to the little princess. Let's see what her reaction will be..." He said. Voldemort started laughing evilly as he stared into the flames at the unsuspecting Moon Princess. Behind him, wormtail trembled in fear but soon disapparated along with the youma.
"Lets see what you got, princess..." sneered Voldemort as he took back his seat and stared into the flames.
~Back at Tengu Alley~
Wind started to pick up around Usagi, it ruffled her hair, sending her long French braid flying to the right. Her trench coat billowed around her and she pulled it tighter around her body. She shivered slightly because of cold breeze. 'Looks like its going to rains pretty soon, better hurry up,' thought Usagi, so she started walk a little bit faster. But she soon came to a halt when she saw something move in the shadows. Usagi turned her attention to the very small alley to her right, she was sure something moved in there. Shaking her head and deciding that her mind was playing tricks on her she continued to walk towards the exit of Tengu Alley.
As she was walking, again she saw and this time felt something move in the shadows. Usagi whipped her head to the right and narrowed her eyes at the shadows, 'What the hell?!' her mind screamed. This time she was sure that there was someone or something there watching there. She continued to look around, and this time she was quite aware that the streets were completely deserted now. Not a single witch or wizard in sight, Usagi started to feel panicky, 'Where IS everybody?' she thought. She decided that it would be best to move a little bit faster and get out of Tengu Alley, so she started walking again but this time she was more aware of someone following her. Thinking that it would be no use to stop and look for someone who surely she wouldn't spot, she started to break into a jog.
Her heart was now pounding in her chest in panic, now being fully aware that someone is following her. She could feel the movements behind her in the shadows and that someone was watching her. 'What is happening here?!' she thought in alarm. She could feel that the person, she was sure it was a person, was easily keeping up with her. She broke into a faster jog, the wind hitting her face lightly and her braid flying behind her. 'Kami, what if it is a crazed manic trying to rape me?! I don't want to be raped and get killed!' she thought, she now felt like crying. Why, oh, why didn't she asked someone to go with her before maybe she wouldn't be in this kind of situation. Cold sweat appeared on her forehead, she could hear the footsteps jogging behind her, harsh breathing behind her. The footsteps sounded as if they were not only fro one pair but more, like two! 'Kami! This is a gang!' she thought alarmed. She now broke into a full run, fully aware that the people were now right behind her, she didn't dare to look behind her in fear of getting a surprise attack. She stared full ahead and run as fast as he could towards the exit of Tengu Alley, she was more than happy to see that the wall was just a few feet away from her. Usagi then realized something, 'Why am I running? I know how to defend myself, hell, I AM Sailor Moon, Fighter and defender for Justice. I know how to fight,' she thought scolding herself, if she knew how to fight a youma then fighting a group of crazed sexual maniacs will a synch. But after realizing this, she noted that the running behind her stopped, the harsh and ragged breathing stopped also as is they were gone.
Usagi stopped running and without thinking turned around to search for the groupies. But as she turned around she saw nothing, no one at all. The streets were deserted, there was only the soft glow of the lamps and soft howling of the wind but not a soul in sight. Usagi frowned, 'Where are they? I am sure somebody followed me,' she thought suspiciously. She turned to her right and looked into the very small dark alley, she narrowed her eyes and continued to stare into the small alley. She felt someone was there, she felt someone watching her, she felt it's presence. Usagi took a step back, taken aback by the powerful aura that someone radiated. 'Who the hell is this?' she thought.
"Hello?! Anybody there?" she shouted into the alley.
Just then Usagi heard a growl coming from the small alley. Usagi gasped in surprise and took another step backward. 'This doesn't sound like a person at all,' thought Usagi, her eyes growing wide in fear. And then without warning, two blood red eyes snapped open in the darkness and stared hungrily at Usagi. Usagi yelped and took several steps backward, 'This is definitely NOT a person,' she said to herself. The eyes stared at her hungrily, not blinking at all but they continued to stare into Usagi's blue eyes. Usagi then realized what that 'thing' was. 'Youma!' her mind screamed. "Youma," whispered Usagi into the night as she watched the eyes.
Then in a blink of an eye, the youma disappeared out of the darkness and directly attacked Usagi, without giving her a chance to react at all. A scream of pain filled the night as the youma sunk its long, sharp teeth into Usagi's left arm, that she used to shield her face. The youma was now holding her down on the ground, lying on top of her, with it's heavy weight crushing her to the hard concrete. Usagi had no time to react as the youma charged on her sending her crashing to the ground, she was only able to raise her left arm to protect her face from being bitten off by it's huge fangs. She felt blood trickle down her arm and drip onto her face. Usagi winced in pain as the youma sunk it's teeth in deeper into her arm, it seemed to enjoy the taste of her blood.
Usagi was fully aware of a huge youma crushing her to the ground and biting into her arm as if it were a steak, she felt the pain through out her body. It's face was hovering above hears and she felts it's smelly breath against her face. 'Looks like you need to brush your teeth,' thought Usagi wryly still trying to ignore the pain. She tried to free herself from under the youma but she slowly felt her strength disappear from all the blood loss and it slowly started to suck her life energy. She tried to reach her broach, which was in the pocket of her coat, with her right arm but her arm was crushed underneath all the weight and the pocket was still to far away.
She was slowly loosing her strength when she became aware of a person walking out of the darkened alley. She saw that it was a short, bald man with black robes. He approached them and he looked very much pleased of what he saw. What shocked Usagi the most was that his one hand was silver; it carried a glass flask with a cork. She saw that there was an evil glint in his beady eyes as he was close enough for Usagi to see. Now he stood right next to her face, he then crouched beside her. His beady eyes in level with her scared blue ones.
"Who..who are you?" was all Usagi could muster before she winced in pain as she once again became aware of the pain of a youma crushing her against the ground and biting into her left arm, draining her from all her life energy.
The bald man laughed in an evil manner, seeming to enjoy what he is seeing. His eyes swept over to the face of the youma whose mouth was now covered in crimson blood. He turned his face to Usagi and grinned, "Call me Wormtail," he said in a quivering sort of voice. Usagi wasn't able to say anything at all, she just continued to stare at him and then at the flask in his silver hand.
"What do you want?" she asked in an exhausted voice, finally speaking again.
Wormtail shrugged and then grinned, flashing her his yellow teeth, "Just a little donation, that's all," he answered. He then took off the cork of the glassed flask. He held the flask right under Usagi's left arm, letting the blood solely drip into it. Usagi watched in terror as the flask slowly filled with her own blood. After a few minutes, the flask was full and wormtail removed it from under her arm and examined it with satisfaction. He then placed the cork back on it and stood up, not looking at Usagi anymore. He held the flask up against the light of the lamp and looked at it again and then grinned in sheer pleasure at the fine work he had done. "The Dark Lord shall be very happy for this," he announced finally.
Usagi's eyes grew wide in pure terror upon hearing those words. 'The Dark Lord! Voldemort!' she thought alarmed. She watched Wormtail place the flask into his robe pockets and turned around to face them.
"I will be going now, thank you for the donation. The Dark Lord will be very happy for it," he announced. He then looked at the youma, narrowing his beady eyes, "I will leave you with her, but remember what the master has said. Do not kill her, she still is very important to him." His expression changed form angry to an evil smile, "Now you have fun now, just don't kill her." he added and then with that he disapparated leaving Usagi with the youma.
Usagi stared in shock at the place where Wormtail used to stand holding her blood in a flask. 'Oh no, no, no this cant be happening. He is in league with Voldemort!' her mind screamed. She then turned her attention at the youma who still had its teeth in her arm. Usagi narrowed her eyes, feeling a new determination grow within her, the Dark Lord is here and this is no time for her to get bitten by a youma. Then with much force she hit the unsuspecting youma with her right leg, hitting it with her right knee with so much force that she sent it flying across the street.
Usagi gasped in pain as she felt the heavy weight being removed from her small body. She took few gasps of much needed cool air before slowly standing up. She winced in pain her left arm hurt like hell, the wound was really deep and blood continued to gush out of it. Her body ached everywhere because of the heavy weight of the youma, but luckily nothing was broken. 'Now this is going to leave some marks,' she thought dryly surprised that she still could think this way even in times like these. She stared at the youma, it was still disoriented by the sudden blow it received from Usagi and slowly stood up. Usagi smiled triumphantly she still was surprised at her own strength. She then narrowed her eyes, it was time that Sailor Moon showed her face again. Looking around to make sure no one was looking and watching, Usagi pulled out her transformation broach.
"Moon Eternal Make up!" and with a flash of bright light and feathers there in Usagi's place there stood Sailor Moon. Her French braid was released and again, her two 'odangos' were back. She looked down at her left arm and grimaced in pain, the wound was still there and the white glove was slowly turning crimson. There was a slight difference in her appearance, like her wings were now real. Two beautiful white wings sprouted from her back, the feathers rippled in the soft wind and they were as soft as they looked. And she now owned a long silver staff; it looks like the same one Sailor Galaxia shattered in their last battle. The staff had pearls embedded around it, with multi-colored gems embedded on top of the staff. 'No time for corny speeches,' she thought finally.
The youma had already recovered and now was standing a few feet away Sailor Moon, eyeing her with an evil sneer. It licked its lips as if tasting the blood that was still tinted on its mouth.
"Talk about ugly," muttered Sailor Moon examining the youma infront of her for the first time. The youma was huge alright, it was big in built. It had huge long teeth, which dripped with blood. It had blood red eyes and long arms that had sharp, long claws at the end. Along its back it had long purple spikes that run down at his back. All in all it looked like most ordinary youma but this one had more power to it. Sailor Moon thought about her odds, 'Well, at least its one on one. But still I'm still in a LOT of trouble,' she thought.
The youma slowly began to advance on her, licking its lips sadistically. Never taking its eyes from Sailor Moon. Then suddenly it charged Sailor Moon at top speed. Sailor Moon being very surprised at the sudden movement was still able to react and quickly jump out of the way and land on top of one of the lampposts. 'At least I improved in fighting, good thing I listened to Luna and Artemis, I really need to thank them when this is over,' she thought while she stood on top of the lamp, she faintly felt the warm heat of the lamp. She felt really tired and the pain in her arm was killing her but she needed to finish off this youma. From the top of the post she looked down at the youma, it was circling the post trying to figure out how to get up there, 'good thing that those youmas are not bright up there,' added Sailor Moon. She then looked around the streets and for the first time she realized something very important, where were all the people? Wouldn't they have heard her scream earlier? Wouldn't the people be aware that there was a youma lose in the streets of Tengu Alley? What happened to all the witches and wizards?
"Where are all the people?" she whispered looking around again. Suddenly the pole shook and Sailor Moon lost her balance, she fell directly on the hard concrete landing rather ungracefully on her butt. "OW!" she shrieked in pain as her left arm came in contact with the ground. She looked up and saw that the youma was the one who caused her to fall, it was still gripping the pole with both of it's hairy hands, evidently it was the one shaking it. It let go of the post and then very slowly advanced her. An evil sneer appeared on its face.
Sailor Moon stared at in shock she tried to stand up but he clumsy side showed again and she slipped and fell back down on the ground. And before she knew it, it started to rain, hard, making it even harder for her to stand up. She backed away trying to slowly crawl away from the youma, still keeping an eye on it occasionally trying to stand up but the pain in her left arm was distracting her too much. Rain was pouring down on the two of them harder, pelting big fat drops of rain on the two of them. The youma was now in attacking range with her but what Sailor Moon didn't expect was that it didn't attack at all, instead it just stood there, all wet, and continued to stare at her with an evil glint in its red eyes. And what it did the next shocked her the most, it began to talk.
"The people were not harmed," said the youma in a deep harsh voice. An evil smile formed on its lips, "Well not yet," he added.
Sailor Moon stared at the youma fully in shock, so it understood her! It had a mind, it understood her! She ignored that thunder that crashed in the background, and asked the youma in a small voice, "What happened to them?"
"Master Wormtail cast a spell, a spell that would make the people think that they should leave. Leave this place for now, so that everything shall go as planned and everything went as planned perfectly." Answered the youma in a sinister voice.
Sailor Moon wanted to ask the youma some more questions, she opened her mouth to ask another question but soon closed it. The youma looked up into the sky, the rain came down faster than ever and thunder crashed in the background. Then in a blink of an eye the youma disappeared, not leaving a trace of it behind at all.
"What the..."Muttered Sailor Moon staring at the spot where the youma stood only seconds ago. The rain was starting to pour down harder and it made it difficult for her too see. She stood up, wobbling a bit, her head felt heavy and every part of her body ached. She looked down onto her left arm and winced as she felt the pain, blood was still flowing from the huge wound. She felt queasy and ready to faint from the lack of blood. 'Time to get home, they are all probably wondering where I am right now,' thought Sailor Moon, she was about to jump to the nearest rooftop when she heard gasps from behind.
"Oh my gosh! Sailor Moon!" exclaimed a loud voice behind her.
Sailor Moon turned around in surprise and found lots of people crowded behind her. People from all around were slowly coming back out, looking into the streets from windows. Witches and wizards were slowly filling up the streets and staring at Sailor Moon in pure shock. 'Looks like when that Wormtail character and the youma disappeared, the spell that they put on them must have been broken,' Usagi reasoned.
"She's back! She's back!" Usagi heard shouts come from behind her. "She saved up all!" "Did you see the youma?" Usagi heard different exclaims from behind. Sailor Moon sighed, 'Looks like the Daily Mystic will have a great cover story,' thought Usagi dryly.
Sailor Moon got ready to jump to the nearest roof top as reports came rushing to her, with their flashing cameras taking pictures of her. Landing unsteadily on the top of one of the stores, Usagi looked down at the witches and wizards, she noted that some of them still looked very dazed and some are still under shock but all in all they are all pretty normal. Deciding that the best way of returning back to the inn would be just to jump from roof top to roof top instead of flying there or teleporting, because she was still very tired and teleporting and flying would just cost too much of her energy. Then in swift movements, Usagi started to jump from one rooftop to another, leaving behind an astonishment group of people.
~Back at the Magic Room~
Shingo looked up at the grandfather clock for the 5th time, concern written all over his face, it was now 9:30 and still no Usagi at all. 'Something must have come up,' he reasoned. Shingo looked around the inn, guest were still sitting in the lounge doing some small talks and playing Magic Poker, like they always do every Tuesday.
"It's getting really late you know, and Usagi still hasn't shown up," said Harry breaking into Shingo's thoughts. He was equally concerned as well.
"You think something might have happened," asked Ginny looking at Shingo with concern in her eyes.
Shingo sighed, "Nothing, nothing happened. Nothing bad happens around here anymore," he assured, also trying to assure himself. 'I hope,' he added to himself.
"Maybe she meet up with some friends and she lost track of time," suggested Hermione, putting down her book and also looking up at the grandfather clock.
"Well, mum and dad are also getting late. Do you think they found something at the Ministry?" asked Ron after dealing out the cards of exploding snap.
Harry shrugged and looked out the window, the rain was pouring down like buckets and by now the window was howling loudly. 'What could have happened?' he asked himself.
"Shingo, where is your sister?! She should have been back by now!" said Sam as he passed by and looked down at Shingo expecting an answer. He looked really stressed out because of the preparations of the ball. "I need her to help me with the paper work, urgh! When she gets back, she's gonna get an ear full!" rambled on Sam while stalking towards the receptionist desk and shuffling through some papers.
Shingo sighed again not paying any attention at all to the cards that he was holding, 'Where the hell are you Usagi?!' he thought angrily.
~Usagi's Room~
Sailor Moon sighed in relief as she reached her open window of her bedroom. Carefully she climbed through the window, being careful not to make any noise at all. As she entered her room, Luna and Artemis were sitting on her bed, they looked at her alarmed as they saw her as Sailor Moon. Usagi placed a gloved finger on her lips and made a Shhh sound so that they wouldn't make any sound. The two lunarian cats nodded , shock written all over the kitty faces. Sailor Moon now stood in the middle of her room and dehenshined.
Usagi groaned loudly and sat on her bed, trying to let everything come in focus. She now felt the pain of her left arm stronger that before, since a great deal of her energy has been taken away because of her detransformation. She was wet to the bone, her clothes stuck to her body like they were her second skin and her coat was torn and shredded in different places. And mostly her clothes were covered in blood. Usagi groaned even louder and fell completely on the bed feeling as exhausted as ever.
"Usagi?! What happened?" asked a concerned Luna.
"Was there an attack?" asked an equally concerned Artemis. Both of them were standing right next to the lying form of Usagi on the bed.
Usagi groaned again, "Yes, there was an attack. A surprise attack," she mumbled slowly. Usagi then stood up, and took of her coat. She threw it on the floor, were it lay in a tangled heap soaking wet the left arm covered in blood. Her blue long sleeved sweater was also torn and a bit wet. The left arm was stained with blood and it clung to her possessively. Usagi winced as she tentatively touched her arm.
"Your hurt!" exclaimed Luna in shock, she quickly jumped off the bed and unto to the dresser to have a better look on the wound.
"We should get that bandaged up first or else it will get infected," suggested Artemis. "Lets go to the bathroom and wash it up a bit," he added.
Usagi nodded numbly, everything happened so fast around that night that she now felt really dazed as realization hit her. 'He's back,' were the only words that kept repeating in her mind. She followed Artemis and Luna into her own bathroom and went directly to the sink. Artemis went to look for some bandages, while Luna instructed Usagi to take of her sweater. She then took of her sweater, leaving her only in her bra and pants. Usagi gasped in pain as the fabric of her sweater was removed from the huge wound on her arm. Her eyes grew wide as she saw the wound, it was quite a big wound and little blood trickled down her arm.
"Oh my," whispered Luna as she saw the wound. Usagi had a lot of explaining to do, that was for sure.
Usagi placed her arm under the warm water and let the blood wash off. She whimpered as she felt the burning sensation. Artemis soon arrived afterwards and they all set to tend to her wound.
After a long while, a dried up Usagi, wearing a new long sleeved green sweater and a pair of shorts sat on her bed looking as exhausted as ever. Nearby sat a ruffled up Artemis, glaring daggers at Usagi, and Luna who still had a questioning look on her face.
"You really shouldn't have thrown me across the room," muttered Artemis while tending to his ruffled up fur.
Usagi smiled sheepishly, "Sorry, I just had to grab something...you know how much the wound hurt," she said grinning at the while feline.
Artemis sighed and jumped on the bed, "Well alright," he mumbled. His face turned serious this time and looked at Usagi expectantly. "So now, tell us what happened," he said in a solemn voice.
"Yes, tell us. We would like to know what happened," urged Luna placing a paw on Usagi's right leg and looking up at her expectantly.
Usagi sighed, telling everything that happened would be hard. She really hated telling someone what happened during a battle because they would only bring back painful memories from before. She closed her eyes and leaned her head against the headboard of her bed, her left arm was placed on a fluffy pillow to avoid it from being moved too much. Usagi took in a deep breath, trying to relax her nerves just a little bit, and then she began to the two expectant lunar cats of what happened only an hour ago.
After relaying the whole story, there was a heavy silence in the room. Each of them lost in their own thoughts, thinking up reasons what Wormtail wanted with Usagi's blood. Usagi sighed as she watched her two cat advisers converse amongst themselves. She still felt tired and now also very sleepy, her energy was all drained out and she felt ready to sleep. Usagi leaned her head against the head board of her bed and closed her eyes, she let everything soak in, Voldemort has made his move, battles will again rise, Wormtail, his servant, had attacked, the youma attacked, it almost killed her if it hasn't been for Wormtail who told it not to kill her, the youma would have surely killed Usagi. Voldemort has risen to power, he wants her, her power, her being..he wants Serenity. Usagi sighed, she hated all of this, all the fighting, and all the trouble all because of her, her and that damned crystal and stupid future and past. Why would everyone go through so much trouble to get to her? Everything always happens because of her, and she hated it. 'What's wrong with me? Do I carry a sign that says 'Hey! I have power, go ahead and try to kill/get me! Or better yet, why don't you just take my whole being?!' I practically attract evil,' she thought dryly. She groaned loudly as she realized how tired she really was and looked down at her two cats. One question lingered in her mind that she was dying to ask.
"Why did that Wormtail guy want my blood?" Usagi asked frowning lightly.
Luna sighed, she too was very tired and stressed out, "We don't know," she said in a small voice. "In some twisted way, Voldemort has found use of your blood that we don't know about,"
"I am probably guessing the reason that Voldemort wants your blood is because of the power that is within in," added Artemis. "In your whole body power is flowing within you, so I am just guessing that he wants just a little bit of that power that you posses and use it in some way or another that we have no idea about,"
"So are you saying he is going to take my power little by little?" asked Usagi frowning.
"No, he wanted your blood tonight to satisfy his craving for your power..and of you..." answered Luna she let her voice fade at the last part but everyone heard it.
Usagi let her eyes drop, an eerie feeling swept over her, "Oh," she breathed in a tiny voice.
"Maybe we should contact the others.."
"No!" interrupted Usagi suddenly, "No Luna we cant, the inners already have their own lives, they don't want to fight and be senshis anymore. You know very well that they have up being a senshi. It is up to the outers if they want to come and help, this is my battle and I should know how to face it on my own. It is my duty as future queen, I should learn to face my own battles." She said sternly.
Luna sighed, "alright, as you wish,"
"You know, a big battle will lie ahead for all of us," said Artemis with a serious expression. There was a long and heavy silence before he continued, "We should be prepared, we don't know when Voldemort will attack again and maybe the next time he will get more than your blood,"
Usagi looked away, she knew exactly what he meant and she didn't like it.
"It's time you get some sleep, you look tired. This night has taken away too much of your energy, better get some rest. We will discuss this tomorrow." Said Luna finally as she noticed Usagi looked very tired and ready to fall asleep.
Usagi nodded, she pulled the covers up to her and reached out for her bedside lamp and turned off the light. He faintly heard Luna and Artemis say got night to her, she replied her good night in a small voice. Usagi lay there in the dark looking up at the ceiling, her mind still thinking about the past hours events. Her whole body ached like hell because of the oversized youma crushing her to the ground and her left arm throbbed in pain against in the white bandages. 'A big battle will lie ahead, a really big one,' she thought as she starred up at the ceiling. Then very slowly she drifted to sleep, not remembering that people downstairs were worried about her whereabouts.
~ Somewhere in Japan ~
"Good Wormtail, well done!" said Voldemort as he examined the blood filled flask in his hands. Before him stood wormtail standing quite proudly. He then removed the cork and raised the flask to his lips. Voldemort began to drink the blood until the whole flask was empty. A single line of blood trickled down his chin. Wormtail watched in sheer pleasure as his master drank the blood and afterwards grin in satisfaction. His eyes grew wide and he felt an immense energy flow throughout his body. Voldemort watched in satisfaction as his own hands slowly gained more strength and they were no longer skin and bones. His whole body changed, except his face, which still had the snake like appearance. Power surged throughout his body, giving him all the strength he needed.
"This will last me for a while before we do our next attack," said Voldemort smiling evilly in satisfaction. He raised his hand holding his wand and examined it, "Until we get the Moon princess and her power, this will give me enough strength to make an even better attack, well done Wormtail, well done in deed," he announced.
"Thank you master, thank you. But when shall we attack next?" asked wormtail in an eager voice.
"Patience my dear Wormtail, patience. Everything will just workout fine, we will wait for a while and then we attack," answered Voldemort as evil energy pulsated from him. "And then, the little Moon princess and her power shall be mine, all mine," Voldemort began to laugh, his evil laughter echoing throughout the abandoned warehouse. "Mine, all mine..Hahaha!" his evil laughter made the warehouse seem hallow and lifeless as it echoed throughout it.
