Chapter 8

She had been floating in space in little more then her senshi fuku for how long she did not know. The last thing she remembered was being knocked about when mobile dolls started to fill the moon and she had no where to run.

Coming too, she saw nothing but an endless sea of stars against a black void. Regaining control of her body, she was able to stop herself from crashing into a rock formation to hard. The hit however sent her flying into a docking bay that was pulling in another aircraft of sorts causing her to black out. During this time she had lost her transformation, and like the others was left clad in only her birthday suit her blood spilling forth staining her skin her hair becoming a darker shade of brown as it spilled from very many cuts. Her crash drew attention to herself and a medical team was at her side almost instantly.

When she came too again, she had found that her body was covered in many places by bandages, and what wasn't was now covered by a thin hospital gown. Her arms had tubes coming from them returning the life force that she had lost leaving her very week and drained. Pain chorsed through her body like a mighty river, but no mater how hard she tried, the pain wouldn't leave. Moments after she had come too in the hospital bed, a woman entered the room her eyes fixed on the chart in front of her. "good to see you awake, how are you feeling?" she asked.

"This hurts more then just a little…" the girl in the bed groaned surprised at how well she could talk.

"Your lucky to be alive….tell me what were you doing out in the middle of space like that, and with no protection, not even clothing?" the doctor started to scold.

The girl in the bed sighed before stating a reply. "I honestly don't know." She had replied… "By the way, my name is Kino Makoto." She said introducing herself as the doctor wrote the name down.

"Your not from around here are you?" she asked flipping to another chart and comparing the two of them. In many ways, Makoto had suffered many injuries and was alive and talking to her when she should have been dead. :And all she is complaining about is pain, very strange…: she thought. "Well you try and get some more rest and I'll be back to check up on you." She said leaving.

After about an hour without being able to sleep Makoto grew tired of lieing around. Most of her blood had returned and so was some of her engery. Taking her IV pole with her she tested her legs never liking to stay in one place for a long time. It didn't take long for her to realize she had landed in a hospital, but what puzzled her more was the fact she didn't remember detransforming. Fearing the worst, she tried running, but as luck would have it, she wasn't able to run just yet.

Thinking she had found an empty room, she ducked in it to rest and to think of a way out, but luck wasn't on her side. As soon as she entered she saw a figure sleeping on the bed his skin a pale white contrasting with his blonde locks. His body had some bandages on it, but from what she could see, she was the one most covered in them. Walking over to him she looked down upon his still form and couldn't help but smile.

As she reached to brush a strang bang out from his face, the figure in the bed stired his eyes trying to adjust to the brightness that the hospital room provided. Makoto started to back slowly with drawing her hand acting as if it had just gotten bitten. "Gomen nasi.." she stammered looking at her feet.

The boy on the bed smiled turning his head weekly to face her a smile spreading across his features. "Its ok, my name is Quatre R. Winner…." He introduced.

"and mine is Kino Makoto." Makoto replied slowly making her way back to his side. "so… if you don't mind me asking, what happened to have you land in such a horrible place such as this?" she asked.

"I'm not quite sure, must have blacked out after I left earth, I don't remember much. Last thing I remember was wanting to black out and being so sore, although the pain seems to still be here." He groaned.

"oh I hear you on that one, being in pain is never really fun." Makoto commented suddenly reminded of her own. The news flashed on bringing her up to dat on the current events, and the fact that Minako had made such an anoucment had her more then just a little pissed. It may have been true that at one time she was the leader of the sailor senshi, and even in this day and age, she still might be, but said cell phone of the princess in question what gave her the right to speak for her princess…? Pulling out her cell phone out of seemingly no where she called the cell of said princess growing slightly worried when her call whent to voicemail. It was a rare event when that happened especially if she was expecting calls from friends or family. Thinking that the location could be causing some form of interference she left a message now determined to leave and locate her princess, the problem now would be to get her doctor to let her leave.

Makoto felt etween a rock and a hard place with the very thought of her princess's life on the line. Ever since she took on the role of sailor Jupiter one of her main goals was the protection of the princess of the moon kingdom above even her own life. Time after time she fought by her side and along with the other senshi given her own life. "Is something wrong Miss Makoto?" Quatre asked when the girl had become too quiet for his own liking.

Makoto jumped startled but managed to hide it well. "Its nothing, I am just worried about a friend and need to find her." She responded as she fought to maintain eye contact with him.

"Maybe my sister will let you come with us so you might find your friend faster." Quatre offered seeing the look of concern and worry in her eyes.

"that's just fine, as long of you both promise to Rest.." the girl that Quatre had idinitified as his older sister confirmed over hearing the last bit of conversation as she entered her brother's room in order to check up on him.

"Thank you so much, it really means a lot to me." She replied happily then turned to hug Quatre again. "see you in the morning then?" she asked.

"that would be treat…" came his reply as she turned and left his room. Upon reaching her own she pulled out her cell to call her princess, only to have the same results. Again she left a message hoping against anything she would get a responance. She then tried to sleep but with little luck. Eventully though sleep mananged to claim her although it was a restless one, but she was determined not to let either Quatre or his sister find that fact out. If either of them new this, they might not allow her to go with them.

The next morning Makoto awoke early and washed up in the bathroom as best she could before heading for Quatre's room. Knocking softly she waited for him to allow her in, and she smiled upon seeing him. They kept the conversation lite until his sister returned with some fresh clothing. Changing out of the hospital gown, she changed into the clothes. More then just a little thankful for the items in question.

After they had left and the shuttle was well on its way, Makoto pulled out her cell phone in hopes of reaching her friend once again. She sighed as the phone rang and rang but no answer. After about the 5th ring, the phone went to voice mail and now Makoto had to wonder if any of the messages were even getting through. Leaving another message, she tried another one of the senshi if only to find out weather or not her own phone was broken or not. After all she didn't know when it had last been used, ad she guessed that getting voice mail was something at least.

On L2, Ami had been traveling with Duo. On the way they had made small talk, but still it seemed all to confusing to her. She jumped when her cell rang, and all she had to do was glance at it to see who was calling. Flipping it open, she accepted the call with, "moushi moushi."

"Thank god, I had thought for sure that I had lost touch with you and the others." Makoto said on the other hand as she let out a breath that she didn't know she was holding. "say have you called and gotten a hold of our princess recently?" she asked.

"Yes, about two days ago I think. I also heard from Rei, and Minako has already made the news or so I have heard. The colony seems to be still buzzing about it. Although I have yet to see exactly what they are talking about." Ami confirmed as her voice took on a concerned and worried tone to it. "why do you ask, something wrong?" she asked her friend.

"Hai, I've tried to contact our princess for the last day or so I can figure, and all I kept getting was her voicemail." She started. "that's why I called to see if anyone else had gotten a hold of her." Makoto finished not noticing that she had gotten the attention of voth Quatre and his sister by now and both were wondering if taking her out of the hospital was really such a good idea.

"I'll keep a look out for her then, and you take care yourself Mako chan." Ami told her friend before ending the connection. She then turned to Duo who was trying his best not to listen. "that was my friend Makoto, she was just letting me know that a friend of ours might be missing. If you don't mind, while you finish up here, I'll do some exploring of my own." She said but she didn't give him a chance to complain. Instead she slipped her cell number to him before jumping from rooftop to rooftop to get a birds eye view of the area.

Makoto shut her phone with a soft click before she relized both Quatre and his sister were giving her strange looks. "something wrong?" Quatre asked.

"iie… I'm alright, I just spoke with another friend of mine, and I'm just a little worried about my one friend. For the nearest I can figure, she hasn't gotten any of my calls or that of any of my other friends in two days. We are all very close, and I'm just trying to look out for her." She explained.

"Don't worry I'm sure your friend will be just fine." Quatre tried to reassure, but with little luck.

"I hope your right.." Makoto responded but her voice showed just how depressed she really was although she had tried to hide it. She sighed looking out the window watching the stars of space vanish and give way to steel walls as they entered the colony.

She sighed saying nothing sticking with Quatre. She rarely spoke unless she was spoken too her mind still stuck on her mind. :Just to get away to explore, but how Quatre would ask to many questions: she thought her anger raising as his father chewed him out for fighting for what he believed in saying mainly fighting back wasn't the way of his family.

When they had time alone to talk, Makoto managed to get her temper under control and talked to Quatre to find out what was going on. "Well my father doesn't believe in fighting back since our family tries to maintain a non vilont way of doing things. But, what he doesn't seem to understand is even though I know this, I also know that you can't just have everything handed to you. I left to fight in this war in order to stand up for my rights and to do what my heart told me was the right thing to do. Am I wrong for doing so?" Quatre explained as he looked at her for an answer to his question.

"Iie in fact your doing exactly as you should. If you grow up and end up taking over, you'll be better then your father…only because you understand more then him what it means to fight since you had been out on the battle field and he avoided it." She explained to him.

Quatre smiled. "thanks." He replied as people formed outside and Makoto and Quatre looked to the window to see what was going on.

"This has been going on for quite some time now.." his sister said suddenly now joining them at the window.

"Quatre looked up with a questioning look in his eyes one that was full of confusion longing for some understanding to all this. "why are they after father?" he asked.

"your friend had summed it up. Since he won't really fight back, and wants nothing to do with the war, the people simply want to just get rid of him, since he won't help. I may agree this war seems pointless now, but if we are ever going to have normal peaceful lives, then we must stand up to this." His sister finished looking out the window then to Quatre and Makoto then back again. "I just hope Father comes to this realization soon before its too late." She added with a heavey sigh.

A few hours later, Mr winner seemingly had left and later they had discovered he had dislocated a resource satellite that was supporting the colony. Makoto, Quatre, and his older sister rushed out in a shuttle in order to stop him, but it looked like it would be to late. "Father onegai escape! Escape Father!" Quatre cried as he watched the large mass drift into space as beam canons sprouted from the colony aimed for it.

"What I am doing is Escaping. I will not let them have this satlite for their meaningless war…so I'm going to destroy it. And, if I end up dying in the process then so be it. I'm not so attached to outer space that I'm not willing to die for it." Mr. Winner told his sun just before the sky lit up with bright yellow beams…
