A/n: the senshi will play a small role in this, but as far as how much I don't know. After all this is only the second chapter.

Chapter 2

Garry couldn't bring himself to concentrate on anything during the flight to Florida. He had wondered though time and again, why it drew him so far from home. Yet, he felt a strong urge to see her if only to make the score even between them or so he told himself.

Upon landing he raced through the airport and out onto the streets, searching and looking for the location in the paper, but each time he would rubble check it, the location had changed. He growled after the fourth or faith change. How was he going to find her now? Stopping at a light he got the biggest clue, as her limp form came flying at him. Her fuku flickered for a few moments before turning into ribbons leaving her completely exposed to anyone that saw her.

Garry caught her as she crash landed into him as he quickly removed his cote. Blood had already started to poor from her in thick streams from various wounds along her body as a few clothes formed after her detransformation, but those had quickly became socked in her crimson life force.

Just like that in the blink of an eye a monster appeared in front of them and shot one of its claws in her. Her scream echoed for miles or so it seamed as her life force continued to drain from her at a inhuman rate. By the time Garry got the object from her arm, she looked brain dead. Placing her on the ground he hurriedly begun to preform CPR, but all his efforts seemed to be in vain. It was then he noticed a mobile phone attached to her hip. He quickly started to daily for help, but before he could four to five voices rang out.

"Youma Tasion!"

"Aqua Mist!"

"Roiling Hart vibration!"

Supreme Thunder!"

Moon twilight flash!"

As thees attacks were spoken, five colorers of light and element shot in five direction the creatures thrashing and howling in agony with each blow. Finally as the last attack hit, it turned to dust which vanished without a trace as to the source of it. Garry paused only once to look up at the sight before continuing. "Please she needs help..." Garry begged as she begun to breathe on her own.

All five of the girls turned to look at him while one with blue hair and a light blue senshi style outfit was the first to take a look at the fallen girl. Her heart and breathing seemed low but there none the less, and most of the bleeding had stopped.

"I'm sure that she will be alright, but I'd like to take her home and check a few things out on her." the blue-haired woman said after a few unnerving moments.

"Are you crazy?" She belongs in a hospital." Garry started to protest.

"I assure you kind sir, but she will be fine with me." the young woman stated a thick Japanese ancient lacing her voice.

"She is a well known doctor back in Japan, and we are staying here for a while. If you feel this woman needs your protection that bad, your more then welcome to fallow." another girl this one with flowing blond hair helled in a half pony tale by a red bow stated.

Gary glanced down at the paper and saw that for the moment the young woman's life had been spared, but still he had many questions of his own to ask. "alright," he agreed.

Gary picked up the week and lifeless young woman in his arms slowly and fallowed the strangely dressed girls away from the battle scene. He looked down at the bundle in his arms and sighed more to himself. Without realizing it he whispered allowed, "I wish I knew your name."

"Kayla Tsukino." the blond haired girl supplied.

"Thanks." Gary said trying to hide the fear in his voice. The rest of the trip no one spoke however, and by the end the quiet was beginning to unnerve Gary. Here he stood fallowing some girls that looked like something right out of a book, in fact now that he thought about it, the girls looked almost exactly like the ones painted on the cover of that book he took out. :No...way...this is not real...but... then...: he let the thoughts hang as they approached a sky scraper looking structure. He shifted the limp form in his arms as they entered the elevator wondering why on earth this girl picked such a high place to stay, but he couldn't complain considering the facts.

Once inside he lie her down and the blue clad girl set to work preparing something to monitor her vitals. Once in place, She kept a close eye on the charts not missing a single detail. Gary could only watch helplessly as she lie there limp and unmoving, labored gasps of air the only sing she was even still alive. "You know you can go home any time." the orange clad woman suggested. "I can get you a flight."

"Your friend Kayla, has information about me and I came here to find out how she knew." Gary told them, but as he watched her sleep other things started to make their way into his mind. True he had been drawn here by the paper on his despite search in order to thank her, but as the events continued to unfold, his thought continued to change. Now, he wanted more then to just find who or what she was, the hell with with anything else right...? Or so he kept telling himself. In truth feelings for her started to spark in him and he had to wonder why.

Several hours later she stirred blinking unfocused brown sightless eyes skyward. She parted her lips to speak, but found that her voice refused to work for her.

Giving up on her vocal cords she tried to sit up, but found this task impossible as well. But, she tried her voice again, and this time she managed to make some sound. "Ami -chan? What happened?"

"No, its me Garry." a male voice responded entering her fogged mind.

"Oh, Hobson-san." she said sitting up a little more, but he pushed her back down.

"Don't try to move, you were hurt badly." Garry instructed. "and, call me Garry please."

"Good, Kayla-chan, glad to see that your up. Its mercury-hime." the blue haired senshi replied using Japanese.

Kayla nodded in understanding before repeating her question, this time in Japanese, guessing Gary didn't understand it, and with luck it could give her a little more time to come with something to say to him.

Mercury nodded seeing where Kayla wanted to go and laid out the last few hours events out for her. She explained about the Youma attack and how Garry had somehow come into her life just in time to stop the youma from causing her to crash and have a near death experance.

"So I guess this makes us even." Kayla stated thankfully, but at the same time a little coldly. She then ignored what he said about staying still and tried her legs, only to have Gary catch her before she fell and hurt something or herself in some other way.

"I thought I told you that you need to stay still." Garry softly reminded her ignoring the fact she acted a little cold to him.

"So why are you still here? Is there something in that thing, that says I'm going to die or something?" Kayla said pointing in the direction of his back pants pocket where he kept his precious newspaper that she had heard so much about.

"No, not until I find out how you can know so much about me." he said sort of lying, but in his heart it was a full out lie by now.

She sighed and figured what else could she lose. "Like you, I'm drawn to some places at some times to prevent something that could have otherwise have been prevented. Youma attacks were far and few in between with my sister and her friends cleaning most of them out. So, this is what I did in the mean time while my sister completed her destiny. Well so one day I had a gut feeling to go to the windy city. I had a feeling someone might die if i didn't get there, although at the time I didn't know exactly who. It was there outside of that building I ran into a woman by the name of Merissa. She explained to me about you, and how you ended up in that mess in the first place. "Including about how you get tomorrows news today." she explained while Gary listened without speaking.

"But, that really doesn't explain who or what you are." Garry pressed.

"Well, I'm not even sure I could properly explain that. Although there are history books that may shed some light on it." Kayla explained.

"Why, are you being like this...?"Gary asked.

"Being like what?" Kayla inquired?

She sighed in thought before thinking of testing her legs once more, but once again Garry had to catch her. Tears sprung to her eyes as she thought about it, and she couldn't bring herself to look at him. Mercury sighed and approached Gary. "don't press her, she's had a harder time dealing with all of this then the rest of us." she said.

"What do you mean, all of what?" Garry asked but then thought about it for a second. He then nodded. "So she hasn't been a fighter like you for long?"

"No...well, the story goes beyond just that, but...I'm afraid most of this will have to be up to her to talk about." the blue clad senshi stated. "onegai, please... just don't be angry with her."

Gary nodded understanding what the young woman meant, however that didn't stop him from being bothered by it. There was something in Kayla he wanted to figure out, but he couldn't understand why. After all his life wasn't littered with many good graces. He had been married once, and needless to say that didn't last long or end well. Now, he had to face dating again, as well as deal with his problem, the 'paper'. He had lost count how long he had it, but what was this? He was finding himself fall in love again, and weather or not this girl knew, he couldn't tell, but he could only pray this paper wasn't what made her act this way.

He rubbed his face with his hands as he tried once again to talk to her, but she wouldn't give him anything new to work with about herself. It seemed to him as if she wanted to push man kind away, but why is what he couldn't understand. Her friends had said it was 'up to her' to say anything, and he knew they were right, but...what and why she was like this unnerved him. When all else failed, he turned to the paper for answers, but none came to him. The only consolation he had was the fact the article that drain him there in the first place was now gone.

He sighed to himself refusing to let Kayla injure herself. It was tease actions that made the brown hair girl stop and think. Never in her life had anyone been like this to her that didn't make her fearful. But, if she allowed herself to get close to him wouldn't that be breaking the "code of a senshi" that included a life alone save for Usagi, who gained the right to fall in love marry and have the next in line for the crown to the moon?

"Garry...I..." she started swelling hard to remove the lump that formed in her voice box. Tears also had over whelmed her at that point, and she couldn't help but think that maybe, just made it was more then just time to simply start to put her life in her hands.
