The Wizard of OZ : Chapter Eleven
--Good-Byes and Regrets: Scene 017--
"Um... sir? We killed Rei and saved this world!", said Usagi as she cheerfully stepped into the Wizard's office. The others followed behind her, Luna not looking very happy and Heero glaring at the Wizard since it looked like he was checking out Usagi. Which he was.
Treize stared at Usagi. She really was weird. In his eyes at least. But she was pretty so she got some points for that. Treize thought, he'd spent a lot of time thinking lately. About Luna and how he was sure she would probably kill him, the ramen he had in the microwave, and what his wife would do when she found out he'd just about stranded the princess of the moon (and friends) in a different world, (than their own) he was pretty sure that he had a painful future ahead of him.
But that wouldn't keep him from losing his "cool".
"Really, now? And your proof?", he asked oh-so calmly.
Makoto and Usagi shared glances, and confused looks. Luna attempted to rip off Heero's arms for his gun, Trowa caught the scent of ramen and went off somewhere, (probably to eat it) and Minako ran up to Treize and showed him her henshin stick.
"I got this and used it to help Sailor Moon defeat her! I'm really strong now!", she replied chirply. (if that's even a word) This didn't help our poor Treize. Seeing as now even the dumbest member of their group had a lot of power.
"Well if what you say is true then... go home.", might as well try it out.
Usagi stared at Treize, "You mean tap our heels together and say 'There's no place like home.'?"
"No. I mean just go home.", yeah, it's always smart to play dumb.
"Oh..."
Luna had had enough of this. She wasn't letting him off so easy.
"Yes we're going home Usagi-chan! Treize will do it himself, I'm sure.", she smirked at the Wizard, "Right? After all, you're the only one with that power."
Treize glared at her. No he did not have the power! But of course she knew that. The stupid cat-turned-human knew everything! He wondered if that was part of her job, knowing everything.
Makoto had hearts in her eyes, all of a sudden not caring about getting home, this guy looked like her old boyfriend! Only a bit older. And why should age be a problem?
"How old are you, Treize-sama?", she asked the somewhat nervous Wizard. Now he thought this an odd question, but at least it would give him more time to figure out how to escape without seeming like a chicken.
"Uh, I'm 26.", Makoto squealed
"You're only ten years older than me!", she launched herself at him and latched herself on his left arm. Treize freaked, his eyes were popping out a bit. He was no pedophile! Of course this fact didn't keep Luna and Heero from aiming the gun at him threateningly.
'You are so screwed dude.', thought the Wizard. 'And now you can't run away considering how strong this girl is, this must be part of their plan! Oh...'
"...crap.", he said. Out loud?
Oops.
Click.
Ah, how beautiful the sound of a loaded gun is.
>)))>F>)))>I>)))>S>)))>H>)))>Y>)))>!>)))>
Meanwhile, Trowa had found the ramen in the Wizard's kitchen.
He found the dish quite tasty. He didn't notice the young woman walk into the kitchen with a baseball bat and freaked out look on her face.
Well, until she swung said bat at him in an attempt to either become the next female pro ball player, or kill him.
"Get out of here you mutated kitty, you!", cried the woman as she swung again, only to have Trowa stop it this time. (But in doing so dropping the plate and losing his ramen. Excuse the dirtyness.)
"Who the hell are you!", he said as he tried to pull the bat out of the mysterious attacker's hands.
"I'm the matriarch of this house! Ami! And if you dare to attack me then I'll have my husband... castrate you!", said the woman as she pulled away, bat in hand.
"Huh? Your husband? Hmm...", Trowa thought, and as he thought he dodged "Ami's" attacks.
'That means...' "Treize is your husband!", he yelled triumphantly at figuring it out, in doing so getting himself smacked in the face with a wooden bat, thus making everything go really dark.
"AHHH!", screamed "Ami" as she knocked out the poor kitty-man. She hadn't meant to hit him so hard! (Plus she loved animals!)
"Oh dear...", she whispered as she leaned over to see if the kitty-man was still alive. Yep, he was alive.
She wondered if it was time to get her companion, he spent a lot of time in her office lately, doing Selene knows what! Usually she wouldn't let him but she needed a break anyway.
Ami heard a groan from the kitty-man and readied her bat just in case.
Slowly Trowa opened his eyes, and what a sight for sore eyes! A rather pretty young woman with short blue hair and big blue eyes stared down at him... with a baseball bat?
"You're alive!", exclaimed the blue woman. Blue-haired woman. "Who are you?", she asked.
Trowa sat up. Where was he? Ah, the kitchen. He stared down at the broken plate on the floor, he fought the urge to go eat off the floor. What was he, a dog?
"Hey! Don't ignore me! Who are you?"
Trowa looked at the woman again. Oh... her.
"Trowa.", came her only reply. 'So Treize is married.'
"Ok, Trowa, what are you doing in my house?"
Simple enough, "I was eating."
Ok...
"Why were you eating in my house? And, where'd you get that food?"
"I was hungry. From the microwave."
Ok...
"Are you evil?
"No."
Ok...
"Do you have anything against my husband or I?
"Your husband is stupid. No."
Ok...
"Hey! He's not stupid!"
"Yes he is."
Ok...
"No he isn't!"
"Yes. He is."
Ok...
"No he- shutup you freak with whiskers!"
Is it me or is Ami a bit OOC? LOL, funny.
"My turn.", said Trowa as he stood up.
"What is it?", she asked as she too stood up.
"Treize is your husband?"
"Yes."
Ok...
"And you're his wife?"
"Yes."
"And your husband is the Wizard of OZ?"
"Yes- no!"
Trowa stared at the woman skeptically.
"He... isn't?"
>)))>F>)))>I>)))>S>)))>H>)))>Y>)))>!>)))>
Treize wasn't doing so well.
Poor guy!
In Trowa's abscence he had had an amazon girl latch a death-grip on his arm, have a cat-turned-human and tin man shoot at him several times, have Minako poke him with her henshin stick in the back, and Usagi have her summer water-works. Why? All because there's no such thing as a white lie.
Where was Duo when you need him? That stupid shape-shifting freak! He was probably off trying to sneak into teenage girls' homes! He was American afterall!
(A/N: I have nothing against Americans! I am one myself! And so you know, the gunshots and Ami's screaming drowned out eachother. Which is why neither went running to see what was going on.)
The little bunny wasn't happy. She'd been lied to! That stupid no-good Wizard wasn't going to get her home! He even said so! And everyone thought she was stupid! Ok, so she was for thinking some freak with magic powers could zap her home...
Makoto was in dreamy land, sorta. She'd heard the lieing bit and stuff but preferred to hold off on the beating so she could stare into those beautiful gray-blue eyes.
Luna and Heero had teamed up as Allies of Justice! And these Allies were going to blow that loser to... Timbuktu!
Little did they know, Duo was in Japan! With some friend of his. They were planning something!
And nobody knew what happened to Trowa, but he was sure to turn up soon.
Minako liked poking Treize! But it was hard when he was getting shot at and she had to dodge the bullets too. How Makoto kept herself from getting hit was a mystery to all. Except the author.
"TREIZE!", came a loud, very loud, feminine-sounding scream from down the hall.
Treize's eyes went wide with fear. Very wide.
'Oh...'
"...crap.", he was speaking out loud again!
Oops.
Oops was right!
BAM!
The door that lead to the hall that lead to the kitchen flew off it's hinges! And in the doorway stood a blue-haired woman and a kitty-man behind her! The kitty-man was Trowa if you couldn't tell.
"YOU WERE PRETENDING TO BE ME AGAIN WEREN'T YOU!", she screeched. Something told everyone that this woman was pis- angrier than Aries when he lost a game of poker to Hades!
"Um, um, I can explain dear!", he cried pitifully, 'dear'?
Makoto snapped out of her day-dreaming. Dear?
"Hey! What's going on?", she yelled angrilly, stopping Usagi's tears, Minako's poking, Heero and Luna's shooting, and Ami's attention. Trowa just watched from the sidelines. Trowa threw himself at the blue-haired woman's feet. Which were adorned with white sandals! It was summer afterall! Go to Old Navy! YAY!
"Ok... what the hell is going on!", she said 'calmly'.
Treize wondered if he could escape his angry wife and the senshi. And the weaponsofmass destruction.
Nope.
"Well... I'm Ami, Treize's wife, I'm really the Wizard. Treize has just started using magic, your kitty-man friend Trowa here told me all the stuff, and I'd like to get back into being calm, cool, and collected. Plus genius!", said the blue-haired woman.
Everyone stared at her. Talk about blunt Ami-chan!
>)))>F>)))>I>)))>S>)))>H>)))>Y>)))>!>)))>
"Wow! You're so cool Ami-chan!", said Minako as she watched Ami use her magic to repair HER office. It had a good number of bullet holes, you see.
Ami smiled at her new friend. She'd managed to sort out everything and keep the tin man and cat woman from killing her husband, and punished him by making him sleep on the couch for the next two months. That and get him to apologize to everyone 16 times and go pay Duo for his services. All was good. The OZ Trio were about to get their heart/brain/nerves. Not to mention get the senshi back home! The hard part was good-byes.
And no, they didn't have to tap their heels together.
Usagi was trying really hard not to cry, she didn't want to go home yet! Ok, so she did but part of her didn't! She'd miss Trowa and Minako! And most of all, Heero! She knew they had a strong bond. But the love part, she wasn't so sure, afterall, there was Mamoru. But he'd taken to being mean to her and stuff and she wasn't so sure she wanted to go back to him! But, Heero wasn't even human so how would that work? Life sucks sometimes.
Makoto was a bit depressed. To find out that her once true love was married! Not to mention he didn't even tell her! He wasn't even wearing his ring! (Something about squishing it down a drain) And his wife was really nice and polite! How could she compete with that? And now it was time to leave and she hadn't even gotten Duo's phone number!
Luna, well, she was happy to be going home! All this green was getting on her nerves! That and Trowa kept staring at her funny. Even if he was cute he was a little weird, being all quiet and stuff. Luna was smart. She was so smart she even knew that the tin man had feelings for Usagi. She felt sorry for him too, since there was the whole Mamoru-and-Usagi Forever thing. (And between us, Luna didn't really like Mamoru)
Luna tucked some of her long black hair behind her human ear, sighing she glanced over at Heero, who wasn't looking so good. Was it her imagination or was he looking a bit rusty? Poor guy. Uh, tin man, I mean.
Ami stood facing Minako, she was about to give her a brain. Something she didn't do too often since she didn't like being all in the big magic business, preferring to stay in the shadows a bit. Something her husband changed seeing as they knew about her powers. That and she couldn't say no.
'Note to self: gain self esteem and remove husband's voice.', she thought as she used her magic to make a harp appear in her hands (Causing Minako to "ooh!" and "aah!" A/N: you know, the harp she attacks with!)
"Mercurious en Rhapsody!", she called as water rose up from the floor around Minakoencircling her like a tube. Minako eeped! a bit but other than that, the water vanished and Minako stoodin the middle of the floor, a bit damp.
(A/N: I'm just making up some crap for "incantations"! So go along with it!)
"Did it work?", asked Makoto as she stare at Minako, then Ami.
"Uh... I don't know. Say something intelligent, Minako.", said Ami as she sweatdropped slightly.
Minako blinked, "Science!"
Ami shrugged slightly, "I guess it worked." this got nods of approval from everyone.
Trowa stood up, what for? He didn't really need nerves, he already had them. So poor Trowa was really here for filler space it seems.
"Uh... can you do something about my whiskers? I'd really really really appreciate it if you could turn me human.", he asked. Ami nodded, she couldn't say no anyway, she had the power! Woo! Girl power!
'She can turn him human!', thought Heero, 'Can she turn me human?' But... what about a heart? What if Ami only granted one wish per person? What if Inuyasha turns gay and starts making out with his half-brother? So many questions! So little answers...
Heero felt a tingling sensation in him and snapped out of his reverie. Water surrounded him in a tube and the tingling sensation grew stronger before the water vanished and everyone was staring at him. He didn't fail to notice the tail-less Trowa.
"Well Heero, how do you feel?", asked Ami as she rose both eyebrows. She'd never had someone ask her for a heart before.
Heero wondered what the feeling in his gut was, but when his eyes locked onto Usagi's he knew. He had a heart. And with his heart he hoped that that was enough.
He had a heart alright, but he wasn't about to show it.
Heero shrugged, "The same,", he forced himself to glare at everyone, "why don't you work on your magic a bit more, Wizard?"
Minako sighed, "I'm sure her magic is fine! I'm smart enough now to know a li-AHHHH!"
Heero had blasted her through the wall before she could blurt out his new secret. Curse her stupid brain! Heero seemed to have forgotten that the Wizard's home was about three stories high, and when they reached the bottom, finding all of Minako would be like finding a needle in a haystack! If not a bit easier.
>)))>F>)))>I>)))>S>)))>H>)))>Y>)))>!>)))>
Well, they eventually did find all of Minako, who used her brain to figure out where every bit of straw was. And after that everyone went off to the salon to get polished, primed, sewed, washed, and all with a bit of lemon-y goodness!
Once again the sun was setting and Makoto, Luna and Usagi stood in front of Heero, Trowa and Minako. Facing each-other, Usagi tried not to burst into tears like a big baby- same for... Trowa? Ok...
Ami hated this part of her job. All the tears, the rusting, the limp straw, she'd probably end up cleaning up after everyone and she was alsovery sure this wouldn't be the last time she saw the ever cheerful Minako. Who'd taken to following around her new "best friend". Ami wondered if it would be ok to send off the scarecrow too...
"Alright then, shall we go?", asked Ami. Not smart.
"WAIT!", cried Usagi as she let go. Tons of tears streaming down like waterfalls. "We have to say good-bye first!"
Ami attempted to conceal her sigh of frustration, which caused it to come out as a bit of a snort.
"Oh Usagi-chan! I'm so going to miss having you to hand out with! Excuse my bad pun!",cried Minako as she hugged her new friend. Usagi saying the same things as she hugged her back.
Usagi looked over at Trowa, "Well, we don't know eachother that well but... I love hugs!", she exclaimed, drawing the surprised once-a-kitty-man Trowa into a bear hug. Heero tried not to feel jealous.
"Heero...", Usagi said, she looked into his gray/blue eyes, she was genuinely happy for him. He had it all: friends, a heart, a cool gun...
"Oh Heero, I'm going to miss you so much!", cried Usagi as she circled her arms around his neck. She'd regret that later when her arms were sore from hugging tin.
"I'll... miss you too, bunny.", came his quiet reply, so only she could hear him.
And with a few last "good-bye"s and "I'll miss you"s the three senshi grabbed eachother's hands in a circle as Ami chanted a new phrase.
"Aqua Rhapsody! Shabon en Mercurious!", and with that (as well as the special effects) Usagi, Luna and Makoto were gone from the World of OZ...
(I call Luna a senshi too 'cuz of her role in LASM. go Sailor Luna!)
--A Broken Heart: Scene 018--
The Tin Man. Heero the Tin Man. Heero was a Tin Man. Often mistaken for metal. Or iron. Which sucked sometimes since soldiers in his world were into swords. Luckily Heero had his gun on hand. At ALL times. Even in the shower! (Oil shower, anyone?) Not to mention he had to ward off that annoying scarecrow since she'd taken to visiting him every five minutes. Minako had a brain. But since she'd gotten one she had yet to actually use it.
Heero was a depressed Tin Man. Depressed, sad, unhappy, angry, and that makes for a very upset tin man. He was depressed and sad because he missed a special someone. A female someone. Someone who Heero thought he was in love with. He was unhappy and angry because he'd gone through all of the trouble of getting himself a stupid heart for no reason! You can't be in love without a heart. Heero had no use for it because he didn't want to love someone who was so far away. He knew he could never be with her. They were too far apart, too different, and too everything!
Heero wanted to stop loving the girl who'd at first stolen his heart. That's why he went with her to that retarded city. He wanted his heart back. He got it back. But only half.
'Face it, Yuy. You still love her. And that will never change. Ever.', came his evil little conscience.
'No I don't.'
'Yes you do!'
'No.'
'Yes!'
'Nu-uh!'
'Yeah-HUH!'
'Shutup!'
'You would do anything for your little bunny!'
'I'm not listening!'
'Say it! Say it!'
'NO!'
'Say it! Stop running!'
'I'm not running!'
'Yes you are!'
'No I'm not!'
'SAY IT DAMMIT!'
Heero looked around, angrily since his retarded conscience was right.
"I love Usagi Tsukino and would do anything for her!", he yelled out under the full moon.
Would you do anything...?
Heero looked around him, surprised at hearing the serene voice out of no where.
'Hah! In your face, tin man!', came Heero's conscience, Heero shoved that loser into the back of his mind, ('Oomf!')
Would you do anything to be with the one you love...? My daughter...?
Heero found himself saying the word that would change his life forever, "Anything"
He loved her more than his beloved gun, which he would drop in a heartbeat just to see her again. Her smile, voice, her cute hair-do, and
even if that meant seeing her stupid cat again, he'd do it!
Then I wish you happiness, and thank you for giving my daughter the freedom she's long desired for...
The voice faded away, and Heero found himself wondering what exactly had happened. He knew as soon as he found himself falling through a portal, exactly like the one Usagi and her friend had gone into.
...Let space never keep us apart...
--There's No Place Like Home: Scene 019--
Makoto and Usagi found themselves just outside the Tsukino's home. Usagi was all teared up, knowing that she would probably never see her new friends ever again.
Makoto was rather upset too- but just at not being able to get to know Duo better. And he looked nothing like her old boyfriend!
"Well, there's no place like home Usagi.", said Makoto, who never messed up her sayings as Minako did, "I'll go with you if you want"
Usagi smiled gratefully as one of her best friends. But shook her head, "No. This is something I'll have to do on my own. Thanks anyways, bye guys. See ya on the other side!"
She walked down the driveway (more like trudged) to what she thought would be her doom. After all, she'd yelled at her parents and said that she hated them.
Usagi rose her arm very slowly- to knock, it felt as if she no longer lived here. As if she were a mere stranger. She knocked three times
as she always did.
She heard the ever familiar voice call, "I'm coming! I'm coming!". Her mother's voice.
Mrs. Tsukino opened the door, she'd been washing the dishes and was currently drying a little pink cup with a little bunny on it. Ikuko
stared straight forward where her daughter stood. She gasped in surprise, dropping the ceramic cup. It would have broken if Usagi hadn't
caught it.
"Usagi...", was all her mother could say.
Usagi fidgeted nervously, cup in hand "Hi, Mom."
The two stood in silence before Mrs. Tsukino rushed forward and hugged her daughter to bits.
Ikuko dragged her daughter back inside the house, Kenji looked up from the paper and stared. Eyes wide in shock an surprise.
"Kenji dear, look who's here.", his wife smiled.
And with that Kenji fell face first into his eggs and bacon. He'd fainted.
"Honey! You don't know how glad we are that you're ok! Oh, sweetie! You can stay here as long as your heart desires! Just please don't
run away again! We love you too much!", cried Ikuko Tsukino as she held her only daughter in a warm embrace. Ikuko never wanted to let go of her beloved child (and where is Shingo?) but would have to so Usagi could breathe.
Kenji stared at his little girl. And noticed something for the first time. She wasn't his little girl anymore. She was a young woman. He
knew why he was always on her and angry with her all the time. It was because she was growing up and would soon leave him. He was never really mad at HER. He was mad at others, for trying to make her leave him. Every father's worst fear.
Usagi glanced at her father, who's face was completely blank. That was never a good sign. She shifted her feet nervously.
"Um... Dad? Can I at least get a hug?", those words hit Kenji like a ton of bricks. To hear those words from his daughter again.
Mr. Tsukino opened his arms wide, as wide as his smile, and his little girl jumped into them once again.
Usagi smiled her biggest smile for her parents. "There's NO place like home!"
There came a knock on the door, Shingo answered it. (When did he get there?) A woman in a nice navy suit stood. Long braided hair and a wide-brimmed hat covered her eyes. (And the suit comes with pants, not a skirt)
"Excuse me? Does a Miss Usagi Tsukino live here? I'm here to offer her a job.", said the "woman".
"Ehh?", was Usagi's only reply.
Kenji led the "woman" into the living room, she thanked him and sat down.
Ikuko quickly shoved her daughter up to the "woman". Smiling her best smile, which looked a bit evil.
"You're still my daughter and I guess you have to grow up too, so take a chance and know that we're always right behind you.", came her
philosophal words.
Usagi looked at the "woman". It took a minute, but the "woman" smiled, a very familiar smile.
'Duo!'
Usagi grinned, "What was that about a job- MISS?"
The woman coughed for a second, "Miss Maxwell, and anyway,"
"I'm sure you've heard of Winner Corps. How Mr. Quatre Raberbra Winner has taken over his father's company." nod "Well, it would seem that he needs a new secretary."
"A secretary?", asked Ikuko.
"Yes, and a dear friend of Mr. Winner's has personally recommended Usagi to take this position.", her statement clearly shocking the crap out of Usagi's parents.
Usagi couldn't contain her excitement- she had a job, almost- and it was for Winner Corps! But who would recommend a 17 year old like Usagi with no experience (and who would screw up completely)?
"So I could take the job if I wanted? Right right right!", Usagi was practically hopping for joy!
"But who would choose Usa-baka for a important job like THAT!", asked Shingo incredulously.
"Why don't you ask Mr. Winner himself? You do plan on taking the job don't you?", Miss Maxwell asked.
"YES!", cried Mr. and Mrs. Tsukino.
"Wow, they say they love me and tell me to stay then they shove me off to a colony? Good grief...", muttered Usagi under her breath.
"What did you say honey?", Ikuko asked, oblivious to the odd look her daughter gave her.
"Nothing! When do I start?", she asked to change the subject.
"Very soon.", came the only reply.
--No Cinderella Story / Epilogue: Scene 020--
Now that Usagi had a job and was to meet her new boss in a few days at the shuttles, she needed a hot new outfit. One that screamed older and mature and sophisticated! And to do that she seeked the help of the two people who she knew could make her that, and the hottest secretary in the conference room. These two ladies were Minako Aino and Michiru Kai'oh.
Usagi's secretorial job wasn't too hard, she had to make sure tickets to meetings were bought, notes were taken in meetings of the most
important topics and whatnot, make sure that Quatre had his tea, and for her as well. He apparently had a bodyguard his age too, some
Chinese man who probably could do some cool martial arts moves and stuff. That was one of the best parts since the bodyguard would have to guard her too. The downside was that that meant Quatre was in some danger. Considering his position. And that had scared her too! But she knew she'd be ok, plus she had to toughen up a bit! She wasn't Sailor Moon for nothin'! She'd faced worse than guns and big bald men!
"Usagi-chan!", she heard the familiar voice and turned to see her cheerful "twin" running towards her, Michiru was walking behind her.
"Minako-chan!", she cried. The two ran towards eachother and gave a hug as if they were just meeting after many years. Quite the tear jerker I'll say!
Michiru smiled at her two friends. They were making a lovely scene. And a funny one after Usagi slipped and sent the both of them toppling.
"Well, shall we start our card-swiping girls?", she asked. The two jumped up faster than a rabbit on wheels.
"WOO! Let's shop till we pop!", Minako said enthusiastically while pumping her fist in the air.
"Uhh... Minako-chan, I think you mean 'shop till we drop'...", said a sweatdropping Usagi. (Who woulda' thought she'd be the one to correct Minako?)
>)))>F>)))>I>)))>S>)))>H>)))>Y>)))>!>)))>
Unbeknownst to the three girls, a man watched them from an antique shop. Actually, he really had his eye on the dumpling head of a girl.
Who was this stalker? We'll find out eventually.
"Um, sir? Will you be buying anything?", asked the nervous clerkman, this customer looked scary. Even more so when he sent a chilling glare his way.
"... I'll buy this locket.", said the man in a low voice. In his right hand he held a star-shaped locket which was connected to a golden
chain.
The man nodded and hopped behing the counter, "Ah... a lovely choice sir! Some say it has a mysterious power for it only plays for those
whom are destined to be together!"
'Why HE would want something like that, I have no idea!', thought the man as he rang up the price.
'Bunny of the Moon...', thought the man as he stepped out of the shop...
>)))>F>)))>I>)))>S>)))>H>)))>Y>)))>!>)))>
"Hello Miss Usagi, it's a pleasure to meet you.", said the handsome young Quatre Raberbra Winner of Winner Corps.
Usagi blushed, "You too, Mr. Winner.", she bowed as gracefully as she could. Needed to make at least an ok impression so he didn't think she was stupid and immature. Which she was at times.
Quatre smiled, this girl was just as Duo described, though at first he wasn't so sure about the spaghetti and meatball hair. He wondered
if Duo and Usagi were friends, since Duo went so far to do this for her. Quatre was fine with it as long as she was good at her job and
got along with Wufei all right. But he had just met Usagi, so he didn't know that the two would be at eachother's necks 24/7. Poor little
Quatre-chan!
Usagi thought she looked pretty mature and sophisticated in her white dress suit and pink blouse. She really looked like a cute little
schoolgirl trying to impress a senior. She was impressive even so, since men were staring at her. (She's underage you pervs!)
"Please, call me Quatre.", he said, the girl looked a bit nervous.
"Ok... Quatre-chan!", the new nicknamecausing him to stutter in surprise, the only ones who had ever called him that were his sisters.
"Uh, shall we get to work then?", and so started another new friendship for Miss Usagi.
>)))>F>)))>I>)))>S>)))>H>)))>Y>)))>!>)))>
"Ooh! It's so big and fancy!", exclaimed Usagi as she was shown her hotel room. Her hotel room in the Plaza Hotel, New York. For Bunny was in America! The only problem being she didn't speak a lick of English!
Quatre had taken it upon himself to show Usagi around that night, he'd been here several times before. (big surprise there)
And at about 2 in the morning, the three-Wufei, Quatre and Usagi- had gotten back from a lot of partying. First the welcome party after one of Quatre's conferences, then the cocktail party, then the teaching Usagi how to at least say "Hello" and "Thank-You" in English (which took up a lot of time) and the sight-seeing, and the keeping Wufei off the sake.
"It is, isn't it?", asked Quatre who was more accustomed to fancy shmancy things than his secretary, "be sure to get a good night's rest Miss Usagi. Tomorrow is another long day.", and with that he closed the door behind him.
Usagi wandered around the room a bit. And after a long bath she shut the lights. And made her way across the room to the king sized bed, she didn't get too far though seeing as she ran into something rather large. A chair, perhaps?
Waiting for her eyes to get used to the dark she squinted her eyes to make out what was in the middle of her room.
She could barely keep in her scream. Because she knew that that wasn't Wufei.
>)))>F>)))>I>)))>S>)))>H>)))>Y>)))>!>)))>
Usagi's eyes widened at what she saw, there was a man standing in the middle of her room! A familiar looking man! Usagi knew she'd seem him before... but that wasn't going to keep her from going crazy on the burglar.
"Get out of my hotel room you creep!", she screeched as she picked up a lamp and threw it at him.
He caught it.
"Usagi! I-", the man tried to say but failed, for Usagi had taken it upon herself to kill this man.
She lunged, and scratched, and bit, and kicked. But to no avail did she even harm the mystery man.
"Usagi! Get a hold of yourself!", said the man.
"Ahh! Let go of me! How do you know my name? SECURITY!", she screamed, of course the guards knew how crazy Usagi was, and didn't give heed to her orders.
"It's me! Heero!", said the man, Usagi froze. And stared up at him.
The man let go of Usagi's arms and walked over to the door, and flicked on the light.
There stood a rather handsome man, with messy dark brown hair, prussian blue eyes, and an oh-so familiar-looking gun.
And with that, the little senshi dropped to the floor.
She had fainted.

Sailor Moon, AKA Usagi Tsukino, AKA Bunny, woke up in her hotel room, with a bit of a headache and a man standing over her.
"It's really you!", she exlaimed, a big smile appearing on her face. Heero liked that smile.
"Yes it's me. I came here, to see you. Your mother..."
"My mom?"
"Queen Selenity,", he said, surprising Usagi at how he knew about her, "she said I could live here now. With you. If you'd let me..."
Heero looked somewhat sad, for if she said no-
"YES! Woo-hoo! This will be so cool! If only Minako-chan and Trowa were here!", she said happily. (A/N: Apparently not figuring that Minako from OZ and Minako from Japan were probably one in the same, with a few memory adjustments and straw)
"Usagi, I also... I have to tell you something..."
"What is it, Heero?"
Heero looked into her azure blue eyes, and he saw the same emotion that was reflected in his own.
"Usagi... I love you."

"Dear Mamoru,
Listen... this is really hard for me to write... I guess I am kinda stupid for writing this in a letter and not in person. At least it's
not an e-mail though! I'll just cut to the chase since I don't want to waste ink. I don't want us to be together anymore. It's not that I don't love you or that I just want to be selfish little me but I've grown up. I've realized that we can be the ones to choose our own destinies! So, when the time comes for Crystal Tokyo to come... don't try to create it. Mamoru, I'll always love you, just not in the way that Serenity and Endymion were. I know you'll be able to find someone who's more your type. I have. Sorta, and maybe you can meet him someday. Don't get mad and say it's his fault or that he's some evil prince trying to break us up and ruin the future. Becauseyou and Ibeing together will ruin the future. And Heero is really my Knight in Shining Armor! Or Tin. Whichever you prefer. You could say he wanted to rescue you too, I guess. But that's most likely a lie since he doesn't like you. I tell him he's being judgmental but he won't listen! But anyway I'm serious about the two of you meeting under nice, normal, friendly circumstances. OK?
Love,
Usagi, Who Hopes to Become Usagi Serenity Yuy"
Usagi licked the envelope closed and even put a cute bunny sticker on it. 'Some things never change.', she thought while smiling.
She would put it in Mamoru's slotbox herself. But in the morning, since she had a date to wait for- knock! knock!
Usagi glanced over at the door to her new apartment, she wondered if she should make him wait. Besides, he WAS two minutes late.
'Now I sound like Rei-chan!', Usagi found herself giggling aloud.
The man outside heard this and new his lovely girlfriend was probably just playing with him. He smiled, Usagi Tsukino was the best thing that had ever happened to him. She was the reason he was the way he is. Did that make sense? Did anything about love make sense? It would when he proposed.
Heero smiled his best smile as she opened the door. Her white dress looked perfect. Luckily for him the two could stay at the ball past 12. After all, this was the best kind of fairy tale.
"Shall we go dance the night away, Bunny?", he asked her as he offered her arm.
"As long as you don't step on my feet.", was her sweet reply. (Funny considering it should be the other way around.)
They did dance the night away... and that means this is story ends Happily Ever After...
