Hello again everyone, I'm sorry for my late update. As you all know school has just started and things are harder then I thought they would be, but you see I did find time to write at least a little, little bit of something. I'll try harder, but I have so many stories to finish, and so little time! Blame those damn teachers with all those cursed tests! After those hours in school, it's good to just write, and besides it improves my typing speed (which was the reason I began writing for anyway)! Isn't that a weird reason? Ok, well enough of this boring nonsense! To the questions—which will be long…haha. I love you all!

BendyStraw- Thank you, thank you are so kind. You got the name scramble? At first I thought no one would get it, I mean I would've and I wrote it! You people are all so smart (pouts). Diamond, yes Diamond, things should get interesting. The first month always is hardest…thought I'm getting comfortable. I hope everything goes well with you too, do read, and I do hope that you enjoy!

Lara1786- Well you'll understand more about the Rei thing in Mamoru's point of view. You are so right, it is going to be in the guys' point of view…four parts, four guys, then after that—I have too much work to do. Sometimes I doubt myself on ever finishing a fic! Maybe I should start writing one-shots…nah. Never could. Enjoy!

AdorableAngel- Lol, I'm sorry that you had to find out that way. Ruining my original plans deserves a thanks! Thank you so much for doing that, because if you hadn't the story would be different, just plain old different. Plus I'd be in a writer's block, funny how things work out. Rei and Diamond…yes, Usagi's 'plans'. You'll get to find out more about that later on. No they weren't! Your stories were wonderful; I was in love with them. I think I read them a few years ago, I wasn't a writer then, but you were one of the many that turned me into a writer! Re-writing them! Ah I can't wait! Do tell me when you do, I'll be the first one there to read and of course review! Enjoy this chapter! Wait! Ha-ha you were the only one to vote! Yaten you say? I'll sure count that! As for four chapters, four endings…I could do that. I HAVE THE PERFECT IDEA!!!! Maybe I'll use it…(grins) Well first things first, I have to make it to the end. I'll be sure to add some Yaten & Usagi moments for your enjoyment, as well as others.

Katana-hime- Yep, Diamond—eh does he even have a last name? Oh well, yes he is the evil guy in the series, the evil stalker, that was absolutely crazy—in a somewhat lovey way. Well that didn't make sense. Some people like him, and ha I as a writer have the power to twist them all into my own sick twisted happenings. (grins) Enjoy!

Kireisnowtenshi- Everyone knows one or the other, and or both! Amazing, and here I thought I was sneaky and mysterious about it, but I guess not. Drama, I'm glad I kept my promise, and I'm telling you now it will get—whoa. I think your heading in the right direction. I believe that I am finally getting somewhere! I do really wonder when this story is going to end…hmm I know I'll make it to 20 but 30, 40? I wonder— Enjoy!

SilverMo- (Sniffles) Thank you, you work on those assignments, but always come back you hear! (pout) Only partial…I guess I have to update more then, won't I? Enjoy now!

Baybe-Dinez- (Blinks) Your teachers seem funny in a mean kind of way. (grins) I was looking at your review, and I must say that I'm happy. I love long reviews! I have seen Hamtaro. That show made me laugh so hard, though I never watch it. I mean a whole half hour about hamsters…I guess some people like it, but it just isn't me. Sorry if I—said something wrong to any those that are reading this. Yeah, it's sometimes seem easier to make a movie instead of writing everything out, I mean details! Gah! Sue for no pictures? Must be some important pictures, people can be so rude sometimes—or lack of patients. You have a lot of doctors in the family! Surgeon, that's just plain scary—I mean what if something goes wrong! You could've just killed someone! Hey, still a few more years to go before you have to decide, right? Never been to Canada. It is true, the voices keep changing; and some voices are downright annoying. The Star Series never actually made it to the states…how I came to know about it, I really have no clue. Yeah, that's them alright. (grins) It would really have you at the end of your seats, waiting. Well for the next part I am going to put those images in writing.

WARNING SPOILERS!Disclaimer- I do not own anything that is about to written…expect if you go on ahead and read the actually story. I own that. (grins) I am merely putting a few scenes into writing…it's not exactly correct, but comes immensely close. For those who doesn't want to know, please do not read. – WARNING SPOILERS!

Sailor Star Series—I am about to write 3 of my favorite scenes from the star series. Enjoy them Baybe-Dinez, and anyone else who wants to read them. Mind you, I might not be entirely correct on the wordings of what they say exactly, but I assure you that I am close. It's hard to put pictures in writing! (pouts)

Seiya to Usagi no Doki Doki Date

They were on a 'date', entering a disco where the music was blaring and the lights flashed in such a blinding way. Seiya lead Usagi to a private room where a sudden thought struck her, 'It's dangerous, just the two of us in this room.' She sat numbly down on the ground when he suddenly neared her. A red rush flowed to her cheeks and she dared not look him in the eye.

"What are you so nervous about?"

His voice flowed through her ears, and she laughed nervously in return.

"Oh, this is your first time." He continued.

Her faced darken even more so.

"It's ok, I'll lead you."

Her mouth opened and closed like gapping fish, but no words were uttered.

"It feels great."

Before she knew it her hands were in his—and they headed out onto the dance floor—

Futarikiri no Yoru! Usagi no Pinch

A sudden chime was sounded throughout the house, a bubbly child, with rich deep red locks and eyes of blue bounced at the chance to open the door. Unfortunately for Chibi Chibi Usagi got to her first, she scowled the poor dear about strangers and doors; luckily it was just the girls. They were all unexpected but Usagi was happy to see them. The girls came over because they didn't want her to feel lonely, so they came to check on her.

It was at this time where Seiya arrived out of the shower with a small, but decent white towel tied loosely around his waist. His hair hung limply and the beads of water rolled gravely off his skin. He needed something other then what he had to wear, because those were just too damn sticky. (Cake…that happened in the beginning somewhere. Chibi Chibi threw cake in Seiya's face…hence the shower.)

The girls stared awestruck at the image of what enfolded before them.

Chibi Chibi got that certain look, and before anyone knew it her little hands wrapped themselves around that towel—and off it went.—

Ginga no Seisen. Sailor Wars Densetsu

A red rose came soaring through the air, stopping the attack in the mist—

The rain went pitter-patter upon the rooftop. It was a blurred image of a certain two that were kneeled by some corner. One, whose long raven strands darkened in color, his eyes of midnight blue bore into the girl before him. A second, whose golden strands stood astray, whose usual eyes of cheery cerulean blue filled with tears that fell along with that of the heavens. Her face pale, her lips trembling…

"I've never been good at trying hard. I've tried to try hard studying, but I always end up eating and sleeping." She began.

The sobs grew, and the tears broke.

"When I saw the rose, I remembered him. I thought that I can be all right by myself, but I can't. I can't stand it anymore. I want to see Mamo-chan."

Without even knowing it, she hurt him. She hurt him deeply. He paled slightly, and his eyes looked sadder then ever, lips parted to speak and these were the words that he uttered out, "Am I not good enough? Am I not good enough?"

His voice was hollow, and yet it held that complete emotion.

She didn't say anything, and neither did he, they just stared at each other. Numbly, blankly, the rain soaking them to the bone…but at that moment it didn't matter.

Deep within the shadows, eyes were seen watching the scene that froze before them—

Sailor Star Series— Well there it was. Do you like it? It's not even a complete episode, just a part… There was a small kiss somewhere…but I don't know where. If any of you want to know more of the star series, just leave something in the review and I'll be happy to answer. I hope you like it Baybe-Dinez, and I hope it helps a bit with the understanding. Usagi never betrayed Mamoru, remember that…Seiya—Seiya was just a best friend—to his disappointment. (sniffles) I love Seiya. (grins) I love all the guys in Sailor Moon! Except Marvin…is that his name? Oh never mind that.

Ok well, now this was a long response! Enjoy the chapter!

Ysienay- At least I surprise you somewhere. (grins) I'm dieing to hear your poem, so this chapter and that poem is hereby a trade! (pout) Give me! I'm set for now, but I'll get blocked sometime down the road, and its so good to hear that you'd help me. You're the best, and thank you so much for everything that you did. Hey, how do I contact you? Enjoy the story and remember to give me that poem!

ThatsMsDiva2U- Taking Mamoru so long to do what? I don't understand. No, Rei didn't break up with him…although it seems like it. Actually its more she's cheating on him—I think. Actually the name was in chapter 10 I believe…full, although I spelled it wrong in the last chapter…which I fixed. Enjoy!

Moonlightshadow- I'll make sure to add that vote. I'm sorry about that, my writing style has that effect on people. I hope you like it, enjoy!

Crystalstarlight- Yes I do know that, but I didn't know about the grammar…ha—My mistake sorry. As for updating faster, I'll try…but that's really the best I could do. Too many other stories…to much homework…Enjoy!

Emmastarz- Thank you for bringing that to my attention. There was suppose to be a 'o' at the end, but I just misspelled that, I fix though. Thank you! Enjoy!

Fushigi Hime- A tad bit longer you say, well I'll try. You did save me, and I am grateful for that, if you are up to the job! Tell me, do you want to become my beta reader? Hey, are a member of ? Maybe we could talk sometime! My name there is amourpropre. Heh…Enjoy the chapter!

Man, I must stop talking! Thank you to everyone that reads this story and leaves me that little review! I love reading them, and it feels so great that there are people out there that enjoy my work. Once again thank you, and enjoy this here chapter! If you are a Mamoru fan you'll love it, if your not…you'll be forced to love it because I wrote it! (look at me head grow!) There guy that you love will have his part, then after this is where the real fun begins!!! I think—

Disclaimer- Do you think if I owned it I would be writing here? I would certainly be filming!

Chapter 16- Past Memories :: Mamoru's

A MUST READ!! -- in this chapter it's going to be all in Mamoru's point of view…eh…and some other things might make you kill me. Unexpected things…read on! Also there will be memories…flashbacks…and they're all going to be in italics. Remember. – A MUST READ!!


The loud thump in my head just wouldn't go away, it was about one in the morning and the image of Rei still flashed through my mind. After all these years, she actually risked everything for a fling…She knew I was there. Somehow I knew that she knew. No—I'm being ridiculous, why would Rei do that if she knew! I could just forget about it, be the dumb one and pretend nothing ever happen. Things would go back to normal that way—

-- I woke up that morning with a grin on my face, Usagi had informed me that Rei was feeling kind down lately. I wanted to cheer her up, but with late night studies, and basically 'guy' time I guess I somehow ignored her. I was determined to make it up to her, that I was; but the question is how. I missed her tantrums, and that face she'd get every time I'd do something wrong… I had a knack for making her angry—although never as angry Usagi.

Kicking the covers off I made my way to the showers. I hated baths…one sitting in your own filth just doesn't seem clean to me. Tossing my boxers to the side I headed into the stall. Rei had personalize those boxers, she wanted to give me something special one Christmas, and how I got flaming boxers I hadn't a clue. She was so embarrassed about guessing my size—ah what I would give to go through a women's mind.

Chuckling softly to myself as the cold water rushed over me. Shivering slightly I continued my morning routine.

Before I knew it, I was on my way out. Roses in hand to cheer up my ladylove, man these are the cheesiest thought a guy could ever have—

Then I saw her, long strands of raven that blew in the wind; those lovely eyes of deep blue that tinted a dark purple. Clutching those roses I was just about to call out, when another person came into view.

What was Rei doing with a guy? I couldn't exactly see his face, I couldn't exactly hear what they were saying; but they do say that a picture is worth a thousand words. What I saw was just as good as a picture, and sure as hell could be. This silvered haired, person was moving in on my Rei! And what was she doing? Returning that hug…the roses fell from my hand.

For some reason it didn't hurt much, but yet it hurt all the same. What was I suppose to do? Punch the living daylights out of him? Call Rei a slut, a cheating wrench? All I could do was watch, blinking a few times was subconsciously; trying to wake up from this horrid dream.

Yaten, Andrew and Seiya were by my side—how they got there was a mystery. It felt like hours before they left, and I'd stayed in that spot for what seemed like hours. --

Damn her. Damn him, I was going to find this guy and give him a taste of my fist. I didn't want her back, at least not yet; but I did want to strangle her and him…but mostly her. You can't make someone do something.

"You can't make someone do something…"

I could forgive her, I really could. I mean who doesn't make mistakes…I myself haven't really been too truthful throughout the years. Maybe this is the payback for that simple kiss years ago. It was a sympathy kiss, I swear it was—at least I think it was. I was just a child then, the idea of romance and love wasn't really my top priorities.

Sure I kissed her, sure I was dating Rei then.

I wasn't cheating on her, could Rei possibly have seen us? No—No…we were well hidden. Away from the party…but what if she did. She wouldn't hold a grudge from years before would she? I mean I was a mere child, and it was a harmless peck.

-- Stupid party. It wasn't as if it was anything fun, and my mother was making a fuss out of nothing. She wanted me to go personal up to that door tonight, alone…and then 'escort' her to the car. The girl can walk, doesn't she know that!? I also had to wear this suit, it was making me a tad bit uncomfortable. It was hot in these clothes and mom just wouldn't let me go in shorts. Why in the world am I going at all!?!

"Oh yeah…"

I promised Rei that I would take her, me and my big mouth. She was my first official girlfriend…what's a guy to do? I liked her, I maybe even liked her liked her, shaking my head gently I fidgeted with the tie. It was a clip-on, since no one in my family knew how to tie one. Looking myself over I found out that I looked ok in black.

The tux, in my opinion is a bit much for a little dance—er—social gathering. What if I have to dance tonight? Would I step on Rei's toes and cause her to yell and go red in the face? Would this dance become my living nightmare? Would I go deaf from her angered screams? I could hear the others laughing at this instant. "You should've taken lessons," Yaten would say, gracing Minako across the floor. I hope he falls flat on his face and spills punch up Minako's dress.

Sneering slightly I stomped my way downstairs. There was a blinding flash as I stepped off the last step.

"You look darling! Oh, hon come and look at Mamoru!"

"Just leave the poor boy alone dear."

"I'm not doing anything to him! Smile hon!"

The flashes wouldn't stop, my eyes were hurting and I believe I was on the brink of going blind. "Mother…" I whined out, but she wouldn't stop. After what seemed like a century, but in reality it was only a few minutes we were in the car and heading out. I was dreading it by the minute, hopefully something will go wrong, and I won't have to go.

I had the strangest desire to cut off Seiya's hair so he could impersonate me, but then I'd get stuck with Ami. Ami's quiet, reserved, and probably won't yell the sense out of me. I should've just snuck into his room and hack off his precious locks.

Don't get me wrong, I like Rei. That's the reason why I asked her out in the first place, but a dance—a dance was simply too much. Mom was wiping something off my face with her…spit, but before she was done I ran out and to my nightmare's door.

Knocking on it slowly and gently I waited for a reply. My foot was tapping on the stone steps, and within a few seconds the door flew open to reveal my charming date. She looked, she looked grown-up. I smiled and said a little hello to her grandfather who was…doing something that couldn't quite see; but never mind that.

"You look nice."

We were taking our time, there was no hurry. Maybe I could drag this out so long that there wouldn't even be a dance.

"Thanks." She answered.

Was she blushing? Rei had her hair down, and was wearing this short red dress that was tight at the top and loose on the bottom.

"She was still pretty flat."

"What!?"

Did I say that out loud? I looked nervously around as her eyes burned with a certain anger—yet again.

"I was talking about the tire, on my bike. She's still pretty flat."

"Oh."

That put a smile on her face. After getting bombarded by my mom we were heading into the school. Lined up and ready to go. I met up with the guys, who all looked horrible by the way.

"You look nice Rei."

"Thank Andy. You look good yourself."

"I love your dress!"

"I love yours!"

"You two went shopping together you dolts."

"I love yours to!"

"…thanks."

It was like a reunion, for kids.

We boys backed away and let the girls have there fun, but one by one we were ambushed and forced to dance.

Before I knew it Rei's head was on my shoulder and my eyes were nervously peering around, until—until they landed on a certain someone. Usagi stood, rather sat in seat near the corner, she was alone, and was sadly staring off into space. All of sudden a guy blocked my view, he was asking her to dance I believe, and that put my mind at ease.

At least I won't have guilt on my mind. I know it isn't my fault that she has no one to dance with, but it just—it just makes me feel uncomfortable. --

It was about two and I was wide-awake. Why was that? The window was cracked open a tad bit and I could've sworn that I saw Rei walking right across the street from me, was I going mad? I'm simply thinking about her too much, I'm getting myself all worked up for nothing, absolutely nothing; nothing at all. I need sleep, yeah sleep.

Just needed to close these damn eyes and forget…

-- "Mamoru?"

"…"

"Mamoru?"

My attention reverted back to my girlfriend, she was quite unhappy with me for 'ignoring' her. Putting on that smiling I told her I needed to 'go', but that wasn't really my real intentions. Usagi was being led outside, I-I-I wasn't caring or anything, but with the music and stuff I needed to clear my head—alone. Moving through the crowds and crowds of girls and boys all alike, flushed cheeks, dressed up, and a downright—downright sick I headed out after—I mean for some air.

Leaning by the door I took in the sight before me. Usagi looked—looked different under this light, why was that? Her blue eyes were wide and frightened, and here I was stalking her? No-no I wanted air that's all. That dress of hers made her blend in with the nearing darkness. The purple diminished, and the white simply gleamed. She looked good in white.

In the darkness, at this certain time the Usagi that stood blushing and fidgeting in the light was not that tomboy that I had grown to know. She looked somewhat similar to Minako, but different, in a good way. Wait—what?

I couldn't exactly hear what they were saying, and I didn't exactly want to; but before I knew it that guy pulled in for a kiss! A few words were said, laughter, and finally tears. What?

"Usagi!"

What the freak am I doing!?

The girl could sure run, and why in the world am I running after her!?

"USAGI!" I screamed out again.

She slowed down, and soon came to a complete stop. Tears streamed down her lovely…lovely? Shaking my head gently I led her to a certain bench near by. Where are we? "What happened?" I heard me say it, but I don't remember wanting to say it. There's probably a full moon tonight, Rei's going to kill me, that's for sure. --

My eyes were open again. Am I the one cheating?

That night, years before—the Usagi that stood in the light—Kas? That's who Usagi looks like, could it be? No-No—damn everything! Funny how things work out; in the past when I opened my eyes I would see that ravened haired vixen before my eyes, and now? Now I still do, but how come when my eyes are closed and barred I see that golden haired angel, was she Kas or Usagi? I'm I possible having a change of heart? For who? A person I barely know or a person from my past who never seemed all that special—until, until now.

-- "Shh, shh don't cry."

It was weird having her wrapped up in my arms, but she wouldn't let go. She was crying and I didn't really want to add to those tears. She said something, but it was muffled with her face buried in my shirt. How weird we must look. All I could really hear at that moment was her tiresome sobs of heartbreak?

"Shh…"

Was it because of the kiss? Was that the reason why she was crying so much? A bad kiss? Girls can be so funny—

I lifted her face up with a few fingers, brushing my thumb against her cheek. My smile grew as I watched the tears stop, as I watched her blue eyes darkened into that forbidden color, as I watched her hair being lifted by a stroke of sudden wind and gracing down towards me. I was wrapped up in her, but at the same time she was wrapped up in me.

What was happening?

I didn't know how or when, but I found myself—kissing her. Brushing my lips against hers. She wasn't Rei, and that was exactly what I wanted --

"She wasn't Rei, and that was exactly what I wanted."

That was it, it was final.

Usagi…

Kas…

Kas! That smile, that face, that—Usagi?

Who would I rather prefer, the beautiful Kas, or the Usagi from my past. Throughout all my years, I've been denying the fact that the kiss actually started something, and I was the stupid one to let it just fade away.

Rei, Rei was just my lifelong sweetheart. I loved her, and always will.

"Fuck."

What am I saying!? I'm confused, starved, and angry! I hate this.

If I really had to choose, between Rei and Usagi, who would I choose? The love that I've always known, or that love that I've never known? Would I risk everything for a 'what if'? Rei did, so what's possibly stopping me. What am I saying!? I'm acting like a child. Rei did it, and it doesn't mean that I have to too, but do I want to?

I'm totally out of my mind, I am going crazy—

To my right—

-- Rei stood there with her hair gracing down from that tie, dark like the black night—her raven locks were like the night. Her eyes glowed out warmly, blue and purple merged into a heavenly bliss. Her lips curved into that smile, and that soft bickering voice bellowed me to followed. Small delicate hands placed gently and softly atop her hips.

Red clad her body, in a tight way… --

Then there was Usagi, to my left. A person that I hardly knew, yet knew everything about. She wasn't the prettiest girl you've ever did see. She wasn't the smartest person in the book. She was nothing, yet everything to me; and now, at…eh…two thirty at night. She is, my—Was this even possible?

I'm sounding ridiculous, forget everything I just said! Usagi, what a jest. I can't love her, I just can't!

Tomorrow, tomorrow is a new day, and tomorrow I will decide.

Should I forgive and forget?

Should I reclaim what was rightfully mine from my faded past?

Should I just bloody well forget everything?!?

I'm sounding absolutely pathetic!

DAMN IT!

This is stupid! I stayed up hours to think about this stuff!?

"Where's the Tylenol?"


Ok, well that was the strangest ending that I could ever come up with and I'm sorry. Review please! I'm sorry to those who didn't want the Mamoru for the kiss, but he does have the lead in the votes as of this moment.

Chapter 17- Past Memories :: Yaten's

Summary- The past is sometimes muddled. The past is sometimes forgotten…but to Usagi, the past is only a faded memory. You believe and remember what you want…so what if you aren't remembering the entire picture?

A/N- Part I is done, and I think I'm pretty happy with it. I'm sorry that it took me so long, but with school and everything I'm lucky to manage out this little chapter. Hopefully the next one will come out faster. Much, much faster, hope that you all like it, and I'm sorry if it sounded so lame. After three more chapter is when things will start clearing up, and yada yada we will have our ending!

New STUFF! -- It seems that has created a C2 thingy...hmm I wonder if I should create one, would anyone even join if I create one (laughs)? Has any of you created one yet? This is strange...strange indeed.

Ja Ne!

Leave me something!
