Disclaimer: I do not own Sailor Moon or any of the anime. Only the random people that pop up. The story, however, is mine. So don't you steal!

AN –Yawns- I just woke up… lolz. Sorry for the lack of updates. I can't help it… I gave myself a block for this story.

IMPORTANT: Uhh, did I forgot to tell you guys the SM timeline, didn't I? Well, since this is AU… We'll just stick it into the Sailor Stars series. However, the Starlights won't be popping up with Kakyuu. Chaos/Galaxia might pop up in the later chapters however. About Mamoru… he went to America, had a safe trip and came back to Japan to visit Usa for a while. But now, he's back in America. You follow?

The Life Of A Guy
Chapter Two
Juuban's New Protector

By Angel-Goddess

-:-:-:-:-:-

Luna paced up and down Usagi's bedroom floor. Where on earth was that girl? She should've been at the senshi meeting after school and she should've been home by now, too. A small frown settled on her lips as she thought of her charge. How can the leader of the scouts and the future ruler of Crystal Tokyo be so irresponsible? She'd make sure that Usagi would get a good scolding once she came back. She stretched and flexed her claws, before gracefully jumping onto her charge's bed and curling up, closing her eyes. She'd take a nap for now to calm her nerves down.

Luna stiffened when footsteps padded towards Usagi's door and pretended to be sleeping when the door creaked open. Curiously, she cracked one eye open only to find that new boy, Ren, peeking into the room as though looking for something. Luna suppressed a frown. What was this boy doing in here? Ren seemed to have noticed her because the blonde boy had laughed softly and sweatdropped before leaving the room, closing the door behind him. Now that was odd behaviour.

Her blue eyes narrowed warily at the spot where Ren had stood. There wasn't something quite right about that boy. Small hackles rose up her throat and she didn't bother to suppress the small growl. He didn't smell right. What really got Luna was the fact that the boy had a little of Usagi's scent and the uncanny fact that he literally mirrored those glowing sapphire orbs with unusual silvery tints in the depths, which was the trademark of the Royal White Moon family. Hmm… must be just coincidence. But the way Ren acted when he saw her…

No, there was definitely something wrong with that boy and she was determined to find out. After all, he could be part of the new enemy that was trying to find out the senshi's real identities. That's why he had come into the room, about to snoop through Usagi's personal belongings. This guardian was not about to take chances; she'd keep a close eye on this stranger who hadn't told the Tsukino family his last name.

"I better tell the scouts about this." Luna remarked to herself as she jumped over to the windowsill and squeezed through the slightly open window.

-:-:-:-:-:-

"… and now that boy is staying over the Tsukino household!" Luna finished, watching the reactions of the senshi in front of her attentively.

"You're kidding!" Minako whined, looking shocked before she hung her head, letting her blonde bangs cover her face. "Mou… Usagi is so lucky to have Ren staying over at her house!"

Makoto nodded in agreement, her brown locks of hair bobbing up and down in her ponytail rhythmically. "Hai! Hai! Ren's a dreamboat!" She commented, green eyes sparkling in admiration as she thought of the gorgeous blonde boy that they had met.

Luna sweatdropped at their antics and hissed at them so that they would stop talking and pay attention to her. She nodded in satisfaction when she finally received the response she desired. "No, you don't understand. Ren might pose a threat!" She berated, annoyed. "Don't you see the effect he has on you? He probably isn't human. He smells different."

"Oh, no way! He is so human. Besides… even if he wasn't…" Minako trailed off, reminiscing about the time she had been so close to him when she had clung onto the fair-haired teenager before she blushed and giggled, putting her hands on her red cheeks. "He is still so very handsome!" She finished with a heartfelt sigh.

Rei scowled, violet eyes narrowing in thought as she remembered that she got an odd feeling from the boy. "You guys, take it seriously. I think Luna may have a point about Ren." She reflected.

Finally, someone has brains other than Ami, who isn't present at the moment! Luna thought with a brisk nod, liking the way the fire-reader was thinking. "Go on, Rei." She nudged the raven-haired teen.

Rei closed her eyes, deep in thought as she tried to remember her encounter. "When I met him, he seemed to be emitting some sort of … vibe. But the peculiar thing is that it didn't feel evil. It almost felt …" Rei trailed off, opening her eyes as her brow creased to find the right word, "…familiar." The Shinto priestess folded her arms, pursing her lips.

Luna wasn't convinced, "But I don't think that it's just a mere coincidence that 'Ren' appears in your school today and is now apparently staying over in Usagi's house!"

The white cat that had been silently listening to all this closely suddenly perked up. "Familiar? You me-"

A beeping of one of the communicators stopped Artemis' sentence and the three senshi that were present immediately checked theirs. It had been Rei's communicator.

Ami's face fizzed into the tiny screen; she was already transformed in her Mercury fuku. "Rei, there's a Phage in Shuyin Bank!" She shouted, "Tell the other senshi, I have to try and stall it. Mercury out!"

"Minna, henshin yo!" Luna ordered the senshi and they all nodded grimly.

The room of the Hikawa temple was filled with glorious, dazzling colours of three different lights as Rei, Minako and Makoto transformed.

-:-

Usagi tensed when she heard the demanding beeping of her communicator in her bedroom, which was close to Shingo's. She balled her hands into fists. What was she to do? She could answer the call because they would see her face. Unless…

She immediately shot out of Shingo's room and headed towards her room, hoping vainly that Luna wasn't in there. She was sure that the suspicious cat would no doubt be onto her trail now. She slowly opened the door and peeked inside. Coast is clear. She thought with glee as she walked in and shut the door behind her, locking it. The incessant beeping of her communicator didn't cease and Usagi frantically dashed to grab it. But before she did anything she hastily pulled out a dusty Halloween mask from under her bed and mashed it onto her face.

Pressing the receive button, Mars' annoyed face flashed onto the screen, glowering at her with those unnerving violet eyes of hers. "Odango, you baka. What in God's name are you wearing? Never mind that, there's a Phage in Shuyin bank. Hurry up!" The screen turned black right after that.

Usagi sweatdropped and pulled off the mask, suppressing a sneeze when she accidentally inhaled some of the dusty filth that had collected onto it after years of not being used. It was so like Rei to be so straight to the point. The blonde thought wryly with a shake of her head. Now what was she to do about her transformation? She looked down at her male body, still unsettled about the sudden abnormal change. No one in the history of mankind ever woke up one morning only to realize that they were the opposite sex. Everything crazy just seemed to happen to her of all people. She felt like crying. A girl's mind trapped in boy's body. How totally mad. Someone up there must really hate her without a doubt.

She stood up shakily and walked towards her dresser, opening one of the drawers and picking up her henshin brooch. She lightly ran her finger over the top on the pretty trinket. Now that she thought about it, would she still be able to transform? She sweatdropped when an image of her male form striking a pose, dressed in her Eternal Sailor Moon fuku conjured up in her mind. Flat chest with the semi-visible six pack obviously showing from the skintight garb… ohh god. How horrifying!

She swallowed and stood up, a determined look shining in the depths of her azure eyes. It didn't matter what she would look like, she just had to save those people!

Raising her brooch high in the air, she shouted, "Moon Eternal Make-up!"

-:-:-:-:-:-

"Mars Flame Sniper!"

Burning how fire that was shaped like an arrow shot at the Phage that nimbly flipped out of the way, laughing as it taunted that angry senshi of Mars.

The senshi of Fire glared menacingly at the tumbling Phage, "Why you…!" She was certain she wouldn't have missed if the stupid youma hadn't turned off all the lights in the bank. Her eyes trained to see the movements inside the large, murky area.

Jupiter jumped it, athletically jumping over the counter and landing a sharp kick on the side of the Phage, which was knocked into a wall. "Hah! Yeah, take that!" The brunette senshi crooned, looking smug at her feat as she held out her hand in which the green symbol of Jupiter started to glow brightly.

"Jupiter…" She moved her hands to her waist and spun around rapidly, flashes of oak leaves flaring around her body as green light emitted vibrantly around her. "Oak Evolution!" She shouted, raising her hands up into the air before stopping. The leaves multiplied and turned golden, hurtling like dangerous knives at the Phage that looked up and smirked, seemingly unfazed as it moved to the side and watched as the numerous leaves buried itself like darts against the bank's wall.

Jupiter gawked, how the hell did that happen? "Mercury! Scan for its weakness!"

"Hai! I'm onto it!" The levelheaded senshi agreed, a blue visor appearing over her eyes when she squeezed her right earring.

The sickly green coloured Phage laughed and stood up, arms akimbo. "You're not bad. But I'm better." It jeered in a shrill voice. It waved an arm in a half circle above its head. "Take this, Sailor Money spray!" It laughed as coins and bank notes suddenly flew at the sweatdropping senshi.

"Ouch, hey! My hair!" Venus complained, covering her head when the small metal coins were pelted at her roughly. "Don't! You s-" her sentence was cut off as the bank notes suddenly zipped towards her and pinned her against the wall with the rest of the senshi.

Mars scowled, who knew bank notes and coins could be so dangerous? "Where's Odango when you need her?"

"Stop right there."

The senshi and the Phage all looked up at an open window to see a silhouette of a strangely dressed man, whose features were shadowed because he was standing with his back towards the moonlight's gleam. They could make out a mop of beautiful blonde hair, however.

"You have no right to attack innocent civilians like that! I am…" The mysterious person faltered, completely loosing the aura of awe that had befallen the spectators for a moment. "I am here to punish you!" He finished in a slightly strained voice that cracked at the end.

-:-

Usagi sweatdropped as she jumped down from the high window and gracefully onto the polished floor of the bank with ease, her cloak blowing dramatically behind her. She had almost introduced herself as Sailor Moon. How idiotic.

When she had transformed, she had been utterly caught by surprise to see that she wasn't in her Eternal Sailor Moon fuku. She, instead, was wearing something that strangely looked like 'Moonlight Knight's' pure white Arabian styled attire that was complete with a piece of cloth that covered half her face so that you could only see her eyes, right down to the white boots and sword hanging by her waist (which she had no idea how to use). The only difference was that she had hints of silver, black and different shades of blue all over the soft cloth and she wasn't wearing that dorky cloth hat, just a blue band over her forehead that was overlapped by the silky blonde tendrils of her fringe.

She slowly stood, flicking her cloak behind her slightly, completely unaware that she was giving off a rather gallant and superior air about her in that simple action until she heard Venus' almost-swooning sigh. She sweatdropped and turned to them, "Are you okay?" She asked, concerned for her senshi's well being.

Jupiter nodded, hearts in her eyes. "Hai…" she answered for all of them.

"Look out!" Mars shouted, a little too late when the annoyed Phage sent an onslaught of money at the oblivious stranger.

"Huh?" Usagi turned and everything seemed to travel in slow motion. Her left hand unconsciously slipped to her right side and pulled out her sword in one swift movement to parry off the gold and silver coins as well as the green notes that were thrown at her. There were clangs of metal as the coins hit the brilliant silver steel and rebounded straight at their owner, who tried to dodge it unsuccessfully.

Usagi stared. Had she just done that? She didn't even realize what was going on! Maybe this transformation was automatic? If that was the case… she didn't have to think anymore.

As if responding to her thoughts, her hand twisted the blade in her hands until it was a mere silver blur in the air, a soft swishing sound about it as it cut through the atmosphere as a golden magic circle glowed underneath her feet. She stopped spinning the blade and flicked it, holding it to the side with her right hand while her left hand moved in front of her, directed at the youma. Her index finger and middle finger were together while her thumb pointed out in a slight L shape. Her other two fingers were curled in as she shouted the first thing that came into her mind. "Purify!"

There was a flash of white light that shed like rays upon the dark section and the Phage screamed before dropping to the floor, turning back into a woman wearing a business suit.

Usagi's mind was completely blank as she frowned, perplexed. What happened? She barely remembered anything that had occurred. She could clearly remember arriving and jumping down from the ledge, but the rest after that was just all muddled up. Her mind was boggling. This was too confusing for her poor brain to handle.

"Hey, do you mind freeing us here?" Mars' voice snapped in irritation, pulling her from her puzzling thoughts.

-:-:-:-:-:-

Usagi's sapphire orbs stared up at the ceiling in bewilderment as she tried to replay the scenes of what had happened only two hours ago. She still couldn't comprehend what had taken place at the bank. It was almost like she was different person when she had transformed. She shivered at the idea as she turned in her futon, unable to sleep as the thoughts plagued her mind, nagging at her.

So many questions were running around rampant in her head. Ones that she had no answer to. Ones that she was sure no one had an answer to. She clutched her blankets and pulled it closer to her in mild exasperation. In the last twenty-four hours, her life had just turned into a living hell that baffled her to no end. She didn't know what was going on and there didn't seem to be an easy way of correcting it… unless she was herself again. She couldn't help the whimper that escaped her as she desperately tried to muffle it into the futon's pillow.

She would give anything to be back to her normal self. She would even happily accept the teasing of Kyou and Izumi at school…

There was soft snore and Usagi glanced behind her and up at her younger brothers' bed. They had decided that since 'Ren' was Shingo's friend that she'd have to stay in his room. After all, who knows what would happen if Kenji found 'Ren' sleeping in Usagi's room? She shook her head ruefully, forgetting her thoughts for a moment. Looks as though her little brother was taking on some habits of hers as he started to snore a storm.

-:-:-:-:-:-

I promise the next chapter will be filled with her and interactions with gorgeous bishounen!! YAY! Next chapter is LOTSA guys.
