Author's Notes:

Read up my pets. Written just for you for this holiday Season!

------------------------------------------------------

Tears slipped down her cheeks as the rain began to pick up. She skid to a stop at an intersection. Her chest was heaving with every shattered breath she took. Gently she pulled something out of her back pocket. It was folded in half and she slowly opened it. The green eyes that greeted her were ones she had stared into for over ten years… raindrops splashed onto the colored pages and she pressed it to her bosom and ran across the street. She swatted at her cheeks.

All her life she had failed at everything she had done… she was an orphan, she was alone… but that wasn't all she was. She was more… it took her becoming a fictional character to realize that her life was her own… and not a fairy tale. She plodded onto grass and raced under a tree for cover. She pulled out the comic book once more, the backup that Luna had taken from the shop. She was a comic book hero… herself… as Lola, her mother's little angel. She looked up around her and then slowly her form sunk down the tree. They were dying… dying without their main character… without Usagi soon none of them would exist… she gulped. She had to be a hero for once…

-----------------------------------------------------

"This will be the third time she's run away from me… it's starting to get on my nerves." Mamoru grumbled as they speedily walked from the temple.

"Luna! You and Ami head over to Usagi's house and see if she showed up there." Minako barked and Ami nodded as Luna raced towards the Tuskino house. "Mamoru take Makoto and you two go look in your car while Rei and I take Artemis on foot… use your communicators… we have to find her if we ever want to see Usagi-chan again." Minako said, her voice going soft and Mamoru pivoted on his heel and headed for his car, Makoto jumping after him. Rei pushed to her side and Minako gulped.

"What do we do when we find her?" Rei asked next to her and Minako gently laced her arm through hers. Rei blinked and looked up at her.

"I'm sorry I didn't believe you. I was wrong." She whispered and Rei looked at her, her face contorting into sadness and she shook her head.

"Minako…" She began and Minako shook her head and then quickly began to walk down the street.

"We've got a mission Mars…" She snapped and Rei nodded and kept up the pace with her. "We have a Princess to find."

------------------------------------------------------

The front door opened effortlessly and the woman behind it smiled.

"Oh! Ami-chan! How nice of you to drop by!" Ikuko Tuskino cried with a smile and Ami bowed before her.

"Good afternoon Ms. Tuskino-san… Usagi-chan asked me to pick something up for her from her room. May I?" She asked politely and the woman nodded with a flip of her hand as she opened the door wider. "Arigato." Ami smiled with another bow as she slipped off her shoes and made her way to the pink bunny's room.

Luna popped her head out of Ami's bag and Ami quickly rushed into Usagi's room. It was empty.

"Maybe we can find clues…" Ami began and Luna shook her head.

"What clues Ami-chan? There is nothing here…" Luna sighed with defeat and Ami slumped into a chair. She felt defeated. The door clicked open and she gasped turning to see the intruder.

"Rini..." Ami whispered and panic shot through their system. Mamoru told them explicitly not to tell Rini the truth...

"Ami-chan?" She said uncertainly then looked back out the door and then quickly shut it. "I'm so glad you are here!" She cried quietly rushing forward. A stack of books in her hand.

"What's wrong Rini?" Ami inquired, her eyebrows knit in surprise. Rini gulped and looked down, sadness crossing her features.

"That isn't the real Usagi-chan is it?" She asked and Ami and Luna's eyes widened. Rini shook her head and tears filled her eyes. "I knew it wasn't her! You can't convince me other wise..."

"We're taking care of it Rini..." Ami whispered and Rini sniffed and looked up at her. "Trust me... just give us time." She whispered and the small child nodded and stood. Ami watched silently as she placed the few books on Usagi's bed.

"These are the comic books I borrowed from her... she hasn't even missed them..." Rini whispered looking over them. She turned and Ami stared at her, Luna going rigid. "You've always taken care of her... I know she'll come home. She really does love me even though I am rotten to her..." Rini whispered, her gaze falling to the floor. Ami nodded with a soft smile.

"She loves you more then anyone else Rini..."

Rini smiled and sucked in a deep breath. Ami didn't move until she quietly left the room. The door shut and Ami jumped to her feet and towards the bed. She pushed the stack over revealing the front covers. Luna's eyes went wide.

"Max Carpel: the darker side of reason… Sarah Floyd: Kid Detective." Luna gasped reading the titles and Ami began to flip through them.

"This isn't the comic I read earlier… Look, they are all different. They aren't like the originals… Sarah the girl who had no friends now has her own investigative team… Max the girl who was abused now works with the police… Lola…" Ami's breath stilled as she pulled the last comic forward. Luna's jaw dropped as she saw the small drawing of a girl on stone steps hugging her knees. "Lola, the Chicago Orphan." She flipped through the pages and didn't see herself or any of the others… it was the story of a little girl who escaped her home only to be placed in a children's home where she saved others… Ami pressed her finger against the ink on the last page. It smudged. She gasped and stood up gripping the comic.

"Come on Luna! We have to hurry!" She cried racing from the room and Luna blinked and stumbled off of the bed. She raced after the blue haired genius. What had Ami figured out that she had missed?

-------------------------------------------------------

He jumped out of his car. The rain pelted against his skin and he heard Makoto scramble out as well. Rei had called them but not five minutes ago with their discovery. He jumped over the little fence and entered into Tokyo Park. Makoto followed after him, trying to keep his pace. The rain was falling in sheets now, unmercifully upon their skin as he raced towards two figures that stood silently side by side. His feet carried him to them and Makoto almost crashed into his back. He held out an arm steadying her as she caught her breath. Both of them bore into the two frozen girls that stood next to them.

"She's praying…" Rei whispered, her violet eyes glued to the figure that rested twenty feet away. She lay in a puddle, her clothes drenched and stained as she clutched a comic book to her chest, her words were muffled by the rain and her blonde hair stuck to her scalp.

"Ami-chan said she's figured it out…" Minako whispered and a tear slid down her cheek unnoticed.

"Why don't you sound happy?" Makoto asked suddenly and Mamoru stared at the shriveled figure before him. He took a few steps forward.

"I don't want her to go back to her life of pain…" Minako cried hoarsely and Makoto took a few steps closer to her. They watched as Mamoru approached the wet figure.

"Usagi…" He called and she didn't respond. He knelt before her. His hands grabbed her shoulders and slowly her head lifted. He couldn't make out what she was saying… she was mumbling it in English. She stopped and stared up at him.

"Gomen ne…" She cried and he shook his head and pulled her against his chest. She refused to move. He felt a torrent of emotions attack him… he had shared something with her… perhaps taken her innocence even though she had offered it willingly.

"Can you ever forgive me?" He whispered into her hair and she nodded against his shirt.

"Did you love me?" She asked and he slowly pulled her away to look into her eyes. He smiled down at her.

"What man in his right mind wouldn't love you?" He asked and her lips trembled. She wasn't his anymore… and she was ok with that. Feet sloshed through the mud covered grass until they reached the group gathered.

"Ami-chan…" Rei mumbled and Ami shook her head disreguarding pleasantries.

"Makoto-chan… transform." She said and Makoto moved away from them and did as she ordered. She turned to the two on the ground. Mamoru stood pulling her gently to her feet. Ami rushed towards her.

"Lola!" She cried and Usagi gulped turning around to stare at her. She held an umbrella over her head and she walked towards her. In her hand was a slender comic. "Look… I found it… I found the reason why you are here… I found it Lola! Look!" She cried and held the comic before her. Mamoru watched as the other girls slowly made their way towards them. A tear slipped down Ami's pale cheek and she smiled. She held out the comic too her and Usagi didn't move.

"I already know." She replied and Ami looked at her with confusion.

"No you don't understand… Lola… Usagi…" She began and Lola shook her head, a smile slowly coming to her lips. She stepped forward and put a hand over the comic.

"I know." She whispered and Ami just stared at her.

"Know what?" Mamoru asked quietly and suddenly thunder cracked through the sky. It rumbled the earth and Rei and Minako turned to glare at the green Senshi. Sailor Jupiter held up her hands innocently.

"That wasn't me." She whispered and they turned back to see Lola walking away.

"Lola!" Minako cried and suddenly lightning crashed through the sky.

"Makoto not now!" Ami cried turning to her and then she gasped see Sailor Jupiter kneeling, her hand on the earth.

"I'm not doing this…." Her uniform melted away and Ami stumbled back, Rei falling in step next to her.

"The earth is trembling…" Makoto cried and Mamoru knelt and put his hand against his planet. "The skies are opening up! We need to seek cover!" She cried and Ami gasped.

"Lola!" Minako cried rushing towards her departing frame.

"Minako-chan!" Rei screamed following after her. Makoto stood, panic coming to her system. She had never felt such ferocity form the weather… such havoc coming from the skies. Perhaps she could control it with her power. She reached up to transform again. A hand grabbed her arm.

"Nani?" She asked and came in contact with blue eyes.

"That's how she got to our world… lightning struck her." Ami said and Makoto's eyes widened.

"But… a bolt like that… it would kill her." Makoto whispered and Ami turned her head to watch her two friends chase after the blonde.

"Lola!" Minako cried and suddenly she let out a scream. The force of the impact through her backwards, her form colliding with the soft one that was following behind her. Light filled her vision and she covered her eyes with her arm. The whole world froze.

She pushed her feet forward, Makoto at her heels as Mamoru followed along side. She stopped, her umbrella dropping to her side. She dropped it there and rushed towards the figure that lay motionless.

Rei slowly sat up, Minako sitting up beside her as they stared at the remains of a massive bolt of lighting. Makoto stepped into the dark charred ring of grass that the prone figure lay in. She was dressed in a red plaid dress, a torn sweater clinging to her features. Mamoru stopped in his tracks above them. Slowly Ami rolled her over and the figure moaned underneath brown hair.

"Lola…" Ami cried supporting her figure. She began to check for injuries.

"She was struck by lighting…" Minako cried crawling forward. Rei shakily stood and held onto her left arm, the one Minako had crushed when she fell on it.

"She's alive." Ami called over the rain. Slowly light blue eyes opened and Ami held her breath. A small smile played upon the tanned face of the small girl that lay in her arms. She was even shorter then Usagi. Ami smiled at her as a tear slid down her cheek.

"Ami Mizuno…" She whispered in awe and Ami nodded holding onto her. "I figured it out before you…" She whispered hoarsely and Ami laughed slightly, tears streaming down her face. She nodded.

"You did… you did… I would have never thought anything like this was possible…" She struggled out and the small girl smiled again and sucked in a deep breath. Ami blinked. Her body was getting lighter.

"Anything is possible in the imagination… thank her for saving me… twice." Lola whispered, a small tear traveling down her face as a smile came upon her pale lips. Her head relaxed in Ami's arm and Mamoru knelt beside her.

"Lola…" Ami cried and the figure in her arms began to fade. Lines appeared around her features as if she were a sketch drawn in the first production stages of a character. Mamoru stared horrified at the scene before him. Ami cried and tried to grip onto her. Rei stood frozen and Minako turned away, tears streaming down her face. "Lola!" Ami cried until the last line was gone… and all that remained was charred grass. The force of the lighting bolt that had hit Lola had thrown Minako and Rei to the ground. It should have destroyed her… Ami reached down and pulled the wet and tattered comic book from the ground that had rested underneath the small girl. She flipped to the back. The book fell apart and into pieces. Carefully she peeled the back cover off. It was a happy ending… "Where is our happy ending?" She whispered and heard sobs echo all around her. Ami stared at the ground. "Appear!" She screamed at it and then hit it with her first. "Appear Usagi-chan!" She screamed, and Mamoru slumped in the mud. In that moment all of his hope shattered into pieces. His heart could no longer take the pain he had been pulling it through… he was shut down.

Thunder crashed as another lightning bolt struck the earth. Ami cried out as her body shifted under the rumbling ground and she toppled onto Rei. Makoto gasped trying to steady herself. She fell to her knees and Mamoru looked around frantically. Was his world being torn apart as his heart and soul were?

"Why hasn't the storm stopped! Lola is gone!" Minako screamed into the air and Makoto gasped jumping to her feet.

"The lighting bolt…" She whispered and Mamoru looked up. He shook his head. Their was no way it could have been that simple… Ami pushed herself to her feet and Rei followed after as Minako stood next to her. They stared over the hill. Mamoru put his face in his hands and shook his head back and forth. He was accepting defeat… his love, his life was gone from him… Makoto was the first one to rush off in the direction. He felt an arm yank him upwards and then another.

"No… I can't take anymore…" He cried and the two women ignored him as they forced him to follow them up the hill. Rei raced ahead of Ami and Minako as they supported their Prince. Why would lightning strike twice within a hundred yards in a matter of five minutes?

----------------------------------------------------------------------

"Thank you."

"Thank you Sailor Moon."

"Thank you Serena…"

The voice whispered over and over again in her head. She had given up screaming. It was the first time she heard voices other then her own in the void she floated in. She half expected Sailor Pluto to come rescue her. She pulled her knees closer to her. Sailor Pluto would not even know where to find her…

"Thank you Bunny."

The voice whispered again and she heard hope behind it. She sniffed hiding her face in her knees. Images flashed through her head.

"Usagi-chan…" A voice called and the figure gripped her knees tighter. She didn't want to look up. All that was around her was darkness… she feared the darkness. "Usagi-chan…" the voice called again yet it was closer. Slowly she lifted her head and gasped seeing light blue eyes staring at her. "Thank you Usagi-chan… you saved me." The girl smiled holding out a tanned hand towards her. She stared at the extended digits and slowly lifted her hand towards it. "Let me thank you…" The girl whispered and their fingertips brushed and light shot forth causing her eyes to close and she let out another terrified scream.

"Thank you Sailor Moon, you will forever be in my heart no matter how old I become. You will always be my favorite superhero."

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

"No more please…" Her voice whispered quietly into the ground as her fingers felt ground underneath her. She sucked in a deep breath and felt rain fall upon her fragile form. She closed her eyes tightly and her hands moved from the cold grass to press against her face, her figure huddled on the ground. Sobs racked through her body at the thought of never making it home… just another jump… another warp into another dimension… another life to save… never returning home to the world she knew, the friends she needed, the man she loved… She screamed into her fingers. They needed her… they needed her to survive just as much as she needed them.

------

Makoto halted and Rei slammed into her form. The voice echoed over their heads and Rei turned back and saw Minako dragging Mamoru up the hill with resistance. Had they heard that?

"Rei-chan…" Makoto cried and Rei slowly turned and put a hand over her eyes shielding them from the rain. She squinted. Their was a figure twenty yards ahead of them. She couldn't make out anything through the sheets of hair except dark hair… dark blonde hair.

"Usagi?" She cried and Makoto put a hand over her chest, tears clouding her vision. "Usagi-chan!" Rei screamed, the volume reverberating throughout the park and Minako stopped, Ami coming to a halt next to her. They watched Rei's form catapult from her static position and take off across the muddy grass. Mamoru lifted his head and stood straight. "Usagi-chan!" Rei's voice screamed again and he felt the words echo in his ears and his ears alone. He pushed forward and Ami and Minako gripped onto his arm and rushed with him.

"Usagi-chan!" The words cut through the rain and slammed into her skull. She shook her head and tightened her muscles.

"Please stop calling me…" She whispered out through tears as her body screamed from the force she was putting upon it.

"Usagi-chan!" The voice cried again and her body stilled. That voice… Rei-chan? Was she honestly hearing Japanese? Slowly her shoulder muscles relaxed and suddenly something slammed into her. Fingers wrapped around her and sobs echoed through her ear. "Usagi-chan!" The form cried miserably clutching to her and Usagi opened her eyes slowly to see black matted strands hanging before her face. Her hands reached out and pulled the figure that was hugging onto her away. Her dark blue eyes encountered blurry violet and she let out another scream. Emotions and feelings snapped in her brain. She was home. She had finally made her last jump… she was home.

"Rei-chan!" She cried hoarsely and fell onto the girl before her, her arms wrapping around her. Usagi gripped onto Rei's clothes and touched her shoulders and arms trying to make sure she was real. Rei sobbed holding onto her, mimicking the same movements as the two sat on the ground, rain falling around them.

"It's you… it's you…" Rei cried touching her hair and then pulling her into a tight hug.

"Rei-chan!" Usagi cried again clutching to her. Makoto rushed up to them, blonde hair was falling down Usagi's back, out of its usual odango as flannel pink punny pj's clung to her sixteen year old frame.

"Usagi-chan…" Makoto whispered and Usagi lifted her head and a broad smile fell across her lips as her tear-filled eyes lit up.

"Makoto-chan!" She cried happily, her voice almost gone and Rei smiled lovingly at her Princess, a smile on her lips and she turned to the three that were rushing towards them. Makoto dropped to her knees before Usagi and reached out and touched her.

"Is it really you?" She asked softly and Usagi grabbed onto her fingers and leaned forward. Makoto leaned forward and they pressed their heads to one another and sighed, Rei gripping onto Usagi's other hand. Tears streamed down Usagi's face. She had thought she had run out of tears…

"Usako." A voice suddenly said above her and Usagi's breath stilled. Slowly her head lifted and her dark blue eyes encountered a pair that made her stomach flip. He bent down before her and stared into her face. Rei's lips trembled and she covered her face, happiness shooting through her in waves. Usagi's bottom lip fell slightly as she stared at him… he was before her… Endymion… Mamoru… Her hand trembled as she reached towards him. She touched his sleeve and he stared at her, his heart breaking. Was this his Usagi? Gently he grabbed her fingers and she looked up at him, her whole body shaking.

"Mamo-chan…" She whispered and he knelt before her.

"Tell me…. Tell me what you said to me when you brought me to Tuso Point when I told you I was Tuxedo Kamen…" He struggled out, his eyes closing tightly. Minako sucked in a deep breath and Rei looked at the blonde before her with wonder. Was Mamoru testing her. Ami gasped and crossed her fingers.

"Answer correctly… Be Usagi…" She whispered under her breath and Minako put a hand against her beating heart. Luna and Artemis stood at her feet. Luna was praying. Praying this was over… praying this was the end of the line…

Her face wrinkled in confusion as she stared at him. He opened his eyes to see her face and his heart stopped. She wrapped her fingers around his and leaned forward.

"I told you Rei said your outfit was gay…" She whispered, her eyebrows rose in wonder and he stared at her. His lips curled slightly into a smile. Rei blinked and Makoto looked at the others with wonder. Ami held her breath. Minako's shoulders slumped.

"Usagi-chan… you told him that?" Rei squeaked and Usagi looked into his face. She was searching for something…

"Mamo-chan…" She whispered. She looked at his hand. Why wasn't he gripping her hand? Why wasn't he taking her in his arms? Was he angry with her? Did he hate her? She leaned forward. "Mamo-chan!" She cried desperately and gently his arm wrapped around her shoulders and pulled her into his arms. Her arms wrapped tightly around him and he clung to her. He began to sob into her hair. "Don't cry Mamo-chan… Don't cry… Gomen ne!" She whispered and he shook his head.

"It's ok to cry… I'm happy Usako… I'm very happy." He whispered and pulled her back to look into her face. She leaned forward and pressed her lips against his. Jolts shot through his body and another tear slid down his cheek as emotions exploded within them. He held her against him… her kiss… she tasted like candy… she pulled away and rubbed her fingers down his face.

"I'm never reading comics again… I swear." She cried out and Ami laughed and dropped down next to Mamoru and smiled lovingly at her.

"We know Usagi…" She said putting her hand on her shoulder and Usagi looked at her and Ami felt emotions well within her… Usagi was back… Her Princess was home…

"We know what? I don't know!" Makoto cried and Usagi fell into Mamoru's arms, her figure soaked to the bone as well as his own. She felt secure for the first time in nine months. Arms wrapped around her and she felt love surround her. She didn't have to run anymore… she was on her own soil… in her own world… It was over… she had completed what she had set out to do and finally returned to finish what she was born for… for them.

"I'll never let you go…" She whispered into his ear and he clutched to her. She was his passion, his obsession, his best friend… He felt something tingle within him. He was complete again.

Epilogue

--------

She hovered over the sleeping figure. She watched her chest fall with every breath she took. The figure yawned and stretched wrapping her arms around the black cat that lay next to her. Ami smiled and looked up to see Rei sitting on the other side of the blonde who slept peacefully between them. Minako sighed leaning her chin in her palms as she lay next to Rei. Makoto giggled leaning over Ami and Ami reached out a finger and poked the form.

"Usagi-chan…" She whispered and the blonde gasped and sat straight up. Luna let out a screech as Usagi's arms tightened around her.

"Youma!?" She cried and Rei smiled with a shake of her head. Usagi looked at all of them and then let out a breath and smiled. She leaned forward and placed Luna in her lap. Ami sat next to her, scrunching against her and Usagi smiled sliding an arm through hers.

"You did a great thing Usagi-chan…" Ami whispered lovingly and Usagi looked up at her and then looked down, a small smile on her lips.

"When Ami told us… Usagi-chan… Will you ever change?" Minako asked with a slight giggle and Usagi let out a breath blowing her bangs out of her eyes. She heard footsteps across the wood floor and she looked up and her eyes lit up.

"Mamo-chan!" She cried and then pulled her sleeping bag more over her. The girls looked at her and she blinked. She blushed. Did they know? Mamoru smirked crouching down before her.

"They know." He confirmed pulling down her sleeping bag to where it was revealing a blue set of cloud pajamas.

"What would your mother say." Makoto snapped with a smirk and Usagi gulped. "Naughty Princess…" Makoto said with a shake of her finger and Rei and Ami giggled. Mamoru smiled and gently placed three comics on Usagi's legs. Usagi gasped and picked the first one up. She flipped to the ending and smiled then grabbed the next one, repeating the same process with all three.

"If I asked you to marry me… what would you say?" Mamoru asked suddenly and Usagi felt all of the air escape her lungs. Her eyes widened and she shoved the comics off of her legs and stared at the handsome man before her. She felt like she was going to burst.

"You would ask me to marry you even though I'm only in high school!?" She cried out and he smiled seeing the joy in her eyes at the prospect of the idea. He sighed and gently touched her cheek.

"No." He whispered and her face deflated and her eyes narrowed. "I just wanted to make sure you'd say yes." He smiled lovingly at her and she dove forward tackling him. He fell onto the floor of Rei's temple and the four girls watched them amused.

"Only Usagi…" Minako whispered picking one of the comic books from the floor. Ami watched Usagi and Mamoru until their lips touched and then she politely turned away. A lover's reunion…

"Yes, only she would do that." Rei smiled lovingly as she picked up another comic. "She has a heart of gold…"
"She has a heart so big that she had wished to save characters in a comic book…" Minako said with a shake of her head. She heard Usagi's laughter ring through the room followed by Mamoru's.

"Technically we could dwell on the taboo it was for her to discover their were other dimensions… we could try to really understand if we are the comic book or they are… are we real? Is it even possible for us to be real? These are all questions we could be exploring…" Ami said quietly and they all nodded.

"If I get to be with Usagi for the rest of my life… I don't mind being a comic book character. Maybe I'd even have my own spin off… Sailor V!" Minako grinned and Makoto rolled her eyes.

"I think we would be the spin off of you miss… I was the first scout." Rei smirked pinching her and Minako grinned leaning against her. They were all together again.

Usagi smiled cuddeling into his arms as she looked up at him.

"You are wonderful." He whispered and she blushed and hid her face in his neck.

"I'm done." A voice breathed and Minako gasped as she spied the small figure walk towards them.

"Artemis… why are you all black?" She croaked and Usagi and Mamoru were torn from their moment to watch the small white cat walk towards them covered in soot. "I just cleaned your coat!" Minako hissed at him and he shook from his head all the way down to his tail, dust flying off of him.

"What were you doing?" Makoto asked quietly.

"I was burning Usagi-chan's comic collection." He said with a satisfied smile and Rei laughed.

"Nani!?" Usagi cried and rushed forward to grab the cat but Mamoru grabbed onto her pulling her back into his arms. "Artemis!" Usagi whined and Mamoru smiled and turned her face towards his. She looked up into his face and then smiled as she heard her friend's laughter echo behind her.

"You know why this was my last jump?" She asked quietly and he stared into her eyes.

"Because this is your home." He replied and she shook her head, a soft smile on her lips as her eyes drank his in.

"Because this is where I was truly needed the most… they needed me to save their lives… I needed them to show me how much I needed all of you to save mine." She smiled and he sucked in a deep breath. He nodded and she wrapped her arms around his head and planted her lips on his. Rei sighed and leaned against Minako. The blonde smirked and supported the priestess.

"If we really are a comic book… who do you think is the most popular character?" Makoto asked suddenly, a smirk on her face and Ami giggled.

"Me. I was born to be a star…" Minako said with a contented sigh and Rei rolled her eyes.

"I think perhaps maybe me…" A voice replied and the three girls sat up and stared at the girl addressing them.

"Ami-chan!" Makoto cried with shock as a smile came to her face. The blue haired genius shrugged and smirked.

"I do have the coolest toys." She responded and Rei opened her mouth to respond but all they could do was just nod. They looked back over to their Prince and Princess. Her lips were attempting to devour his as he eagerly consumed her. They looked back at each other and smiled.

"I'm leaving the minute they hit second base." Rei said holding up a hand and the others nodded holding up theirs in agreement.

"We're one unique comic book eh ladies?" Minako asked and the girls all nodded. Indeed they were.

--------------------------------------------------------

She smiled closing the small comic book shut. She pressed her hand over the blonde figure on the cover and grinned slightly. She was surrounded by her friends and the love of her life. She had finally made it home.

"Thank you Sailor Moon…" She whispered and the comic book began to fade until it vanished from her lap. She smiled and looked up from her chair when suddenly arms wrapped around her. She gasped and stood up reaching to grab for them.

"Play tag with us Lola!" She cried and Lola laughed and chased after five girls as they darted through the old Victorian house. The girls cries of laughter filled the air as they raced away from the fourteen year old. Lola laughed and stopped when one girl almost collided with the matron of the house.

"Can I help you Mama-Herchey?" She asked reaching for the tea trey and the woman smiled and handed it to her. Her frame scooped up a six year old that raced past her. Lola set the tea on the coffee table and fell into the couch and looked lovingly at the woman as she entered into the room. She was in her late thirties yet thin and beautiful… an angel.

"Tell me again how you started this house." Lola pleaded and the woman laughed soflty as she sat in a chair, the small girl in her lap playing with her brown curls.

"Oh Lola… you were there my pet… I found you on the side of the road in a puddle… if it weren't for you following me home… well you made your way into my heart." She whispered lovingly glancing at the girl across the room from her. "My first little girl." She whispered and Lola's eyes filled with tears, a smile on her broad face. "I fought for your custody, sold my law firm and bought this house… where we find other little girls… and we make their dreams come true." She smiled at Lola and the small girl sniffed and then bolted forward. Mama-Herchey laughed and held out her arm as the fourteen year old latched onto her. "Together we rescue those who can't rescue themselves, just like you taught me when you asked me to rescue you." She smiled and Lola nodded.

"Everyday superheros." She whispered and the woman nodded with a smile.

-----------------
