Yes, I am pleased to present the second chapter of this little piece I wrote as a gift for a dear friend. The plot will thicken as the rest of the Senshi appear on Kinmoku, demanding that Usagi come back. But, Mr. Seiya has a few tricks up his sleeve. He does own Haruka a good punch.

---

Seiya paced back and forth, it had been a day, and Usagi still hadn't woken up. He was getting really worried. Also, who knew when that short-tempered Sailor Uranus was going to storm into the palace and beat the living daylights out of him.

"Seiya, calm down. Usagi must have spent a lot of power just getting here."

"Why must you always be so smart Taiki?"

Laughing, the auburn haired man walked up next to Seiya. "Because, it's what I do."

"Shut up."

Laughing a little more, Taiki smiled down at Seiya. "How long do you think it'll be before the rest of her bunch show up here and kick your ass?"

"I didn't do anything!" Seiya protested firmly.

"You're the reason she left Earth in the first place." Taiki chuckled.

"I'm going to get you so bad for this." Seiya's shoulder slumped forward and he glared up at Taiki.

"You can try Seiya, you can try." Taiki turned on his heel and walked out of the room.

"GO TO HELL!" Seiya yelled after the taller man.

"You wish!" was the reply.

Sailor Uranus whacked at a thicket of vines with her sword. "Why couldn't we land NEAR the palace?" She yelled back at Sailor Mercury.

"I'm not an expert at landings! We usually just thought about where we wanted to go, and whoosh, off we went and there we where, unscathed and right where we needed to be." Mercury replied a little bitterly.

"Well then, why didn't we do that?" Uranus asked.

"Because, we weren't thinking about Usagi, we where thinking about the planet!" Mercury shut her mini-computer with an angered snap.

The rest of the Senshi just sighed and shook their heads. They continued to follow Mercury and Uranus through the tangled jungle.

After another few hours of hiking, Uranus stopped whacking the vines. She sighed and looked down at a large city. It apparently was the main city, considering there was a giant palace in the middle of it.

"Well, we made it." Sailor Jupiter smiled.

"No shit!" Sailor Mars snapped. She grumbled something about high heels and jungles and then proceeded to head down the hill towards the city.

"Lets go. I want to get back to Earth. Because, if this planet belongs to who I think it belongs to, I'll need to make sure Uranus doesn't murder anybody." Sailor Neptune smiled and headed down after Mars.

Uranus muttered something incoherently and went after the other two.

The other five shrugged and went down the hill after their three companions.

"Star Fighter!"

Seiya turned around and stared at a simple gate guard. He sighed in annoyance. "What?" he snapped putting his hands on his hips.

"There are people at the gate, demanding to be let in. They claim to know you. The tall blonde one is making rather frightening threats." He said.

Seiya groaned. "Great. Let them in, just don't tell them anything." He ordered fiercely.

The guard nodded, bowed, and then ran out of the room.

"Just my luck." Seiya sighed and then trucked off to the entrance hall. He was sure he'd have to defend himself the moment he stepped into view.

Uranus crossed her arms over her chest and tapped her foot against the floor. Her dark green eyes were narrowed in anger. She wasn't happy.

"Seiya!"

Uranus looked up and saw the anger inducing form of Seiya Kou walk down the steps towards them and then stop halfway down. "Where is she!" demanded the tall warrior.

Seiya's eyes widened. He turned and ran up the stairs and then down the hall.

Uranus growled and ran after Seiya, taking the steps two at a time.

Neptune sighed and hung her head. "Haruka…" she muttered.

The other senshi shook their heads.

Usagi's eyes fluttered open. She yawned and sat up. Slowly she took in her surroundings. Fear raced through her head, where was she? What happened? All she remembered was leaving Earth, then nothing.

"AH! MAINAC!" a familiar voice screamed.

Usagi looked up and saw Seiya run by the open door of the room she was in with Sailor Uranus in close pursuit. Her eyes widened as everything came rushing back to her. Scrambling out of the bed, Usagi moved over to the door.

"Seiya?"

The midnight haired man turned his head; he saw Usagi and his eyes widened. He then tripped over his own foot and went rolling down the hallway.

Uranus dove and pinned Seiya to the ground, not seeing Usagi, conveniently. "AHA! Now I got you!"

"I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING!" Seiya protested, trying to get out of Uranus's grip.

"HARUKA-SAN!"

Uranus turned her head and saw Usagi standing there with her hands on her hips. "Koneko-chan! He kidnapped you!"

"I didn't do anything!" Seiya whined flailing about under Uranus.

"Haruka-san! I came here of my own free will. Seiya did nothing to provoke me to come here." Usagi snapped.

"No you didn't! He kidnapped you!"

"For the millionth time! I didn't do ANYTHING!" Seiya groaned.

"Haruka…"

Uranus saw Neptune standing next to Usagi, with her arms crossed over her chest. "Huh? Wha?"

Neptune walked over to Uranus and leaned in close to her ear. "I see how it is. You prefer him over me?" She winked at Uranus and then turned on her heel and walked away.

"Wait! MI-CHI-RU-!" Uranus cried. She scrambled off of Seiya and ran after the other woman.

Usagi giggled softly. "Seiya, are you alright?"

Seiya lay on the floor in a daze. "I didn't do it. I swear! I'm innocent! I just live here!"

Usagi knelt down next to Seiya. "I know. Come on, lets go walk and talk." She smiled brightly.

Seiya smiled at Usagi and got up. "It's good to see you Odango." He patted her on the head.

"Don't call me Odango!" Usagi crossed her arms over her chest and stood up. She turned away from Seiya in a huff.

"Aww… Don't be mad at me. You know you can't stay mad for very long." Seiya got up and put an arm around Usagi's shoulder.

The blonde smiled and looked at Seiya. "We have a lot to catch up on."

Ami wandered through the library, she was in awe. She had never seen so many books in all her life. She smiled and took one off the shelf. Opening it, she frowned at the mysterious words. She wanted to read the text so badly.

"Maybe I could help you with that…"

Ami looked up and blushed softly. "Taiki-san!" she cried out in surprise.

Taiki smiled and walked over to Ami. "It's nice to see you again Mizuno-kun." He smiled.

Looking down at the pages of the book, Ami nodded feverishly. "It is." She blushed a little harder.

"Why don't we discuss this book over some tea?" Taiki proposed.

Ami looked up and her eyes widened. "Tea? With you?"

"Yes, and maybe later, we could have dinner together." The tall auburn haired man smiled at the shorter blue haired girl.

Staring at Taiki with wide eyes, Ami nodded. "Yes, that sounds lovely." She smiled and looked at the book.

Taiki took the book from Ami's hands. "Now, while we're at tea, I can start to teach you how to read this."

"Really?"

"Of course. Come on."

Ami smiled and hurried after Taiki. The large door to the library shut behind them.

Yaten sat in the garden with a sketchbook. He smiled and shut his eyes. He felt the wind brush against him. It was sad that he didn't have his camera with him, but he had left it in his rooms when he came down to sketch the gardens. He needed to get away from the two girls known as Rei and Makoto. They where being more annoying that Minako was. Which was really hard to do.

"Yaten?"

The silver haired man looked up and saw Minako standing there, smiling. His jade green eyes widened. "Ah… Ah… Minako!" he stammered.

The blonde smiled and walked over to the bench. She sat down next to Yaten. "How are you?"

"Fi… Fine!" Yaten blushed lightly.

Minako laughed. "Why are you so nervous?"

"No reason." Yaten stared down at his sketchbook, trying to hide the growing blush on his cheeks.

"Come on. There must be a reason." Minako scooted closer to Yaten, brushing against his arm.

Yaten jumped up, dropping his sketchbook onto the ground. "None!"

Minako pouted. "Please? Tell me?" she got up and stood in front of him.

Yaten looked at Minako, and then looked for a way out. He found none. Taking a deep breath, he looked back at the blonde in front of him. "Doyouwannagoouttodinnerwithme?"

"What was that?" Minako asked softly.

"Do you want to go out to dinner with me?" Yaten asked slowly, looking away from Minako.

"Sure." Came the cheerful reply.

Yaten watched in complete surprise as Minako skipped away, in a very cheerful mood.
