Hi Everyone! I've come do a decision about my story, drum roll please :bangs pens on desk: I am going to be ending the story in the next two chapters. I haven't really gotten much feedback and I think that the story isn't really going anywhere so I guess it would be better that I end it then keep it going and have no one read it or want to read. Unless you guys want me to keep it going. Just let me know. I planned on starting a new story and I will tell you guys about it more in the next two chapters. I didn't get many reviews on the last chapter which is why I came to this conclusion. No hard feelings though so enjoy the story!

Note: I added "xXx" in-between different situations so you would know when something new starts but that it is still connected to the last part of the story. It is meant to be different from the long row of "xXx" that I put in-between brand new situations.

It was so dark. She couldn't see anything around her. She moved her hands in front of her but couldn't find any light. Her eyes struggled to open but only darkness could be seen. 'Where am I? Am I dead?' She moved her head from side to side but saw nothing. Something cold trailed down her cheek and she moved her hand to it. It was a tear, she was crying. Her head moved to the right to when she faintly heard a sound. Was that her name being called? She strained her ears to hear the sound. It was her name! She squinted her eyes to see some sort of light in the darkness. She heard her name perfectly now and it sounded like a woman was saying it.

"Usagi…."

Was that her mother saying that? It couldn't be, she was dead. 'Am I going crazy?' She rose to her feet to walk towards the sound of her name. She held her hands straight out in front of her to feel around but it was like she was in a large room with no walls. She could hear her name being called louder but still couldn't see anything. She looked around her and moved her hands but she couldn't feel anything. She looked back towards the sound of the voice and finally saw a faint glow.

"Usagi…"

She tried not to get too excited but she quickened her step to reach the light. As she got closer, her tears came more quickly. She was overjoyed. She could hear more of what was being said to her as she got closer to the light.

"Usagi, don't give up. I taught you better then that."

Usagi stopped walking and brought her hand to her heart. It was her mother talking. 'Maybe I am dead' she thought.

"You're not dead."

Usagi continued to walk towards the light until it engulfed her. She closed her eyes from the blinding light that surrounded her. She rubbed her eyes with her hands and squinted them open. She took a step forward but stopped. She was standing on soft grass it felt like. She opened her eyes wide and looked around. Usagi was standing in the middle of a large forest with the tallest trees. It was so beautiful that she couldn't help but run her hand over the bark and look up at the leaves hanging down. She closed her eyes and inhaled the scent of the forest. She felt a hand on her shoulder and she turned to see her mother standing there with a soft smile on her face and her beautiful wings spread out behind her. She immediately wrapped her arms around her mother and hugged her tight letting out her own wings. She looked back at her mother with tears in her eyes.

"Where am I? How can I talk to you if I'm not dead too?"

"This is happening in your mind sweetheart".

"Mother, I'm scared. I don't know what to do; I think these people are going to kill me". Usagi wiped her eyes and pulled away from her mother. She felt a coat of despair wrap around her. Her mother walked in front of her with anger in her eyes that Usagi took a step back. She had never seen such a look in her mother's face.

"Did I teach you to bow down when someone strikes at you? Don't let these people break you down, you need to stand up against those who try to hurt you."

"What do you want from me? I tried to escape and they caught me. The worst part is no one has even come to save me. What kind of friends do I have that they haven't found me yet and saved me!"

"Do you really believe that it's that easy? People can't always be there to save you in bad situations Usagi; you have to be able to stand up on your own! If you think you're defeated then you are and I taught you nothing."

Usagi straightened herself and wiped the remaining tears from her eyes. Her mother was right. She shouldn't have to rely on people to come and help her. She could do this on her own. She smiled at her mother who quickly returned the smile back.

"Mother, you're right. I know what I have to do."

Her mother smiled at her and placed her hands on her cheeks. She placed a soft kiss on her forehead and slowly disappeared.

Usagi slowly opened her eyes. She winced as she sat up and a sharp pain shot threw her back. She quickly reached back and massaged her scars to ease the pain. It had never hurt her that much before. A thought dawned on her and she quickly looked around the room. In one corner there was a small feather. She quickly picked it up to make sure what she thought was true. They had been able to trigger her feathers open when she wasn't awake. No wonder the pain was so much; she hadn't mentally brought them out. Anger surged threw her and also fear. If they could do this when she was sleeping, they could surely do worse. She looked around the room and started to think of a plan. Her mind drifted to Mamoru and a soft smile came across her lips. Of course he would be trying to find her, he wouldn't give up. 'Neither will I' she thought.

xXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXx

Mamoru drove away from Dr. Lee's office and back to his apartment in silence. Usagi had been gone for two days and fear was starting to get the best of him. The way the doctor had openly lied about knowing Beryl was enough to say that he didn't plan on keeping her for questions and letting her go. He had to think of a plan.

Malachite shifted in the passenger seat. He did not trust the doctor either. There was something evil in his eye that showed that he didn't intend on giving Usagi up to anyone. He ran his hand threw his hair and touched his bandage. Mina had been furious when he told her what really happened to his head. She also didn't take lightly to his telling her not to get involved in Usagi's kidnapping. She refused to let him back into the apartment until he "came to his senses". He turned to Mamoru when he heard his mobile ring.

"Mamoru speaking".

"Mamoru Chiba you bastard! You have some nerve trying to keep me and the girls in the dark about Usagi's kidnapping! Who do you think you are!"

"Rei, stop screaming! Look, the last thing I need right now is one of you girls getting into this and getting hurt. This is serious."

"I know it is you jerk! Me and the girls are at your apartment right now so get your stupid ass here now so we can talk about what OUR next move will be!"

Mamoru pulled the phone away from his ear as he heard the loud slam of the other line going dead. He turned to Malachite who was trying to hide a smile and gave him a look that could kill. He raced his way back to his apartment and walked into his room to four very angry girls sitting on his couch. Jadeite, Zoisite and Nephrite were standing by the bar with drinks in their hands and looked like they would be no help in Mamoru's defense. Mamoru walked into the room and removed his jacket.

"Ladies. You all look lovely today." He gave them one of his winning smiles but only got looks of hatred in return. Mina rose from the couch and walked towards Mamoru.

"Who the hell do you think you are trying to keep us out of this? Usagi is our friend and we've known her a hell of a lot longer then you have."

"That's not why I don't want you girls involved. None of us want anyone else to get hurt, this guy is serious."

Ami walked forward and grabbed Mamoru's arm. "Don't leave us out, we want to help too. Do you know where she is?"

Mamoru looked down into her sky blue eyes and softened. 'No wonder Zoi gives her everything' he thought. He sighed and walked to the bar to pour a drink. He turned towards the girls and braced himself for what was to come.

"I know where she is. She is being kept by a scientist downtown in his lab. I'm sure that Beryl told him where to find her and he paid her for her help. I was going to go over to her apartment and try to get some information out of her."

"Then what the fuck are we waiting for? Why does that stupid bitch even care about Usagi?" Makoto stood up and paced the room with her hands balled in tight fists.

"It's because she is probably still obsessing about Mamoru. We have to get her now! We don't know what they could do. I mean why would a scientist want Usagi in the first place?" Rei put her hands on her hips and looked towards the group of guys standing around the bar. They all diverted their eyes to the floor. Rei stalked up to Jadeite and snapped her fingers in front of his face. "Don't you start to lie to me Jade. Are you keeping something from me?"

Jadeite looked to the other guys for support. They hadn't told the girls about Usagi's secret and it really wasn't their place to. He wasn't even sure if he was supposed to know. None of the men were willing to get involved in a fight with his fiery girlfriend so he did the only thing he thought would get him out of this situation, he lied. "Rei, I don't know why this guy took Usagi. What we need to worry about is how to get her back."

Rei turned from her boyfriend and looked towards Mamoru. "What's the next move then?"

"Well, I planned on going to see Beryl and find out what she knows about this whole situation and then going back to Dr. Lee and finding out what I can."

Ami sucked in her breath and walked to her husband. "Dr. Lee? Dr. Fiore Lee? Is that who has her?"

"Yes it is. Why?"

"I know him! He was one of my med school teachers." Ami started to bite on her nails as a plan started to form in her mind. She felt her husband put his arm around her shoulders and she looked up to his worried eyes.

"What are you thinking about?"

"I think I could get into his laboratory and find out what he is planning. If I go down there, I can ask him what he's working on and maybe get an idea of what he wants Usagi for."

Zoisite immediately shook his head at his petite wife. "It's too dangerous; I don't want you going down their alone."

Ami shook his arm off her shoulder and looked him straight in the eye. "If there is a way I can help one of my best friends then I'm going to help her. I don't care what you have to say about it. It's bad enough that you didn't tell me right when it happened. I'm going!" She turned away from her husband and walked towards the door. She was stopped by Mina and she quickly turned.

"Let's plan this out right so nothing worse can happen. I think Ami is right and that she should go but we should have a plan in case something happens to her. I also think we need to go back today, we don't know what he wants with her and we don't want to risk him doing something drastic." There was swift agreement among the girls and slow nods from the men. They quickly got together to plan.

xXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXx

Usagi huddled in the corner of the room. If she was going to beat this she would have to do it head on. She heard oncoming footsteps and stood up. Dr. Lee walked in and gave her a smile as he looked back down at his clipboard. He made some quick notes and looked back at Usagi. Behind him were two large guards with a no nonsense aura around them. She decided that escaping again was definitely out. She walked forward to look the doctor in the eye.

"Ms. Tsukino, how are you feeling today?" He gave her a broad smile and moved aside so the men could bring the stretcher in the room.

Usagi eyed the doctor and took a step back as a stretcher was being brought in. "I've been better. What are we doing today?"

The doctor chuckled and removed different colored vials from his coat pocket. He saw the look of fear flit across his patient's face and that only made him smile wider. "We were just planning on taking a look at your back. Nothing too serious." He motioned for the two men to get a hold of Usagi and they started to walk slowly to her.

Usagi backed up some more and put her hands out in front of her to stop them. "I can just show them to you, you don't have to drug me!"

The doctor looked taken aback at her willingness and considered her idea. He would get more information about them if he could see her releasing them. He stopped the men and motioned for them to leave. After closing the door behind them he turned back to Usagi. "All right Ms. Tsukino, I want to see them now."

Usagi wasted no time and turned so she would have more room to release her wings. She closed her eyes and let them free. There wasn't any pain this time and for that she was grateful. Apparently it only hurt when they triggered it when she was sleeping. She wrapped them around herself and turned back to the doctor who was writing furiously on his clipboard. He had an intense look in his eye and was constantly looking back at Usagi then his clipboard. He walked forward and she flinched a little when he started to touch her wings. He poked them with his pen and moved around to her back. She was going to turn to him but he stopped her by placing his hands on her shoulders.

"I need to see where they emerge. Hold still." He had never seen anything so amazing in his life. He didn't think he would be able to kill her. She was the last survivor of a dead race. He gently placed his fingers on her shoulder blades where her wings appeared. The wings looked like they were connected to another set of bones that present day man did not have. They were small bones but they seem to grow larger as she aged. He knew that she wasn't able to release her wings until she was 21 and it seemed that that was how long it took for the bones to grow. "I want you to pull them back in." He took a step back as she pulled her wings back in a he took a quick breath at the sight. The scars just seemed to appear without him seeing her wings go in. It was in one word amazing.

Usagi stood still has the doctor placed his hands on her back. Her scars were sensitive to the touch and she was uncomfortable with him touching her back or any part of her in general. She was trying to devise a plan on how to escape but it wasn't looking so bright. She could try to convince him to let her live but for how long. He didn't seem to want to let her go any time soon. She heard a buzzer at the door and the doctors sigh of frustration.

Dr. Lee stormed over to the door and pressed his code in. One of the large men who was helping him earlier quickly entered. "What is it? I'm busy!"

"I'm sorry doctor but there is a Dr. Ami Saito here. She says that she was a student of yours and wanted to stop in to say hello. Should I tell her you're busy?"

Dr. Lee stopped to think and decided that another doctor would be of much help in this current situation. He wouldn't tell her right away, he would see how her feelings were. He nodded his head and told the guard to let Dr. Saito know that he would be right out. He turned back to Usagi once the guard left. "I'm afraid we will have to cut today short but I'll be back tomorrow." He gave her a smile and walked out of her cell.

Usagi fell to her knees and started to cry. 'Ami is here! She must know what is happening and is trying to help'. Usagi was so happy that she couldn't help but cry harder. She would finally get out of there!

xXx

Ami sat in her old teacher's office and looked around. She couldn't believe that he was responsible for kidnapping Usagi. She smoothed out her skirt and turned as Dr. Lee entered his office from the back door. Ami stood up from her chair and extended her hand towards him. "I'm sorry to come out of the blue but I wanted to stop in and see how you were doing."

"Not at all Ami, I love having old students come to visit. Especially when their as bright as you. So how have you been?"

"I've been well. I got married last year and I now work at the hospital downtown".

"That's good to hear. Pediatrician I assume."

"Of course. So how have things been for you?" She hoped she wasn't being too obvious but she didn't want to waste any time. Mamoru and her husband were close by incase anything should happen and she was on a deadline.

"Oh, never been better around here. Ami, may I ask you, have you heard of Albeo Bipennis?"

Ami furrowed her brows and looked down in deep thought. She heard faintly about the dead race but didn't make much of it to research about it. However, she felt that this is what Usagi had been taken for, maybe because she had information so she lied. "Yes, I have. I haven't heard much recently but I would be interested in any information you have."

Dr. Lee didn't answer right away but looked straight in Ami's eyes. He wanted to make sure there wasn't any deception there. The scientist in him won out. He couldn't resist showing someone else what he found. It was too magnificent not to. Dr. Lee was planning on telling the proper authorities in time but he wanted to know as much as possible before he turned her over. "I've actually found something very interesting but I want to stress that I don't want this to be known by anyone else. What I show you must be kept a secret for now Ami. Can I trust you?"

"Of course you can. I won't tell a soul. What did you find?" Ami leaned forward and put as much interest in her eyes as possible. She wasn't sure if he was even talking about Usagi anymore.

"I can actually say that I found the last living member of that race." He paused and looked at his old student's face. It seemed to light up with curiosity and he smiled. He stood and motioned for her to follow him. When they started walking threw his lab he talked more about what he found but left some key elements out. "This girl has no family that I know of and she came to me willingly. I planned on turning her over to the authorities in time but I wanted to find out what I can first before I do that."

"Of course. That makes sense Dr. Lee." Ami's mind was going a mile a minute thinking of who Dr. Lee was even talking about. Was Usagi part of this dead race? She couldn't be, could she? She followed the doctor threw his lab and stopped in front of door with a security pad in front. Dr. Lee grabbed her by the elbow and gently walked her over to the two way mirror. Ami gasped when she looked inside. She turned to Dr. Lee who seemed to have misinterpreted her gasp and smiled back at her.

"Isn't she amazing?" He turned back to Usagi with admiration. She looked fantastic to him, his own discovery.

"Yes she is. How long have you kept her here?" Ami couldn't take her eyes away from her friend sitting in the corner of the white cell. She was wearing a paper gown and looked like she had been crying. Her eyes seemed to have dimmed and she looked like she had lost a lot of weight. Ami bit her lip and willed her tears not to fall from her eyes as she looked at her broken friend. She watched Usagi stand up and move towards a tray of food that didn't look like it had been touched. She had to get her out of here.

"I've had her for only a couple days. Not long at all."

"May I go in and see her? I would like to know more." She looked towards Dr. Lee who seemed hesitant at first but walked to the door and pressed his code in. He opened the door for Ami and walked in after her closing the door behind them. Ami slowly walked forward towards her friend. Usagi hadn't turned to look at the door when they walked in but sat in the corner of the room with her back to them eating from the tray. Ami looked at the two vertical lines on Usagi's back and everything seemed to click. She was one of them, why hadn't she told any of her friends? 'She didn't tell you guys because she was scared!' Ami shook her head in agreement with her thoughts and slowly walked over to Usagi. Dr. Lee stopped her and stepped back.

"Ms. Tsukino, I would like you to stand and release your wings."

Ami watched as her friend stood up. She jumped back as large white wings emerged from her back. They were the most beautiful wings she had ever seen. Usagi slowly turned and when she looked to Ami her eyes opened wider in shock. Ami slightly shook her head to let her friend know to not blow her cover. She turned towards Dr. Lee. "She's amazing. Can I ask that I help you in your study? I would be greatly indebted to you." Ami smiled up at the doctor.

"I don't know if that would be a good idea Ami." It was one thing to let her see his discovery; it was another to have her help him. Usagi could easily tell her that she had been kidnapped and being held without her consent. It was an amazement that she hadn't said anything all ready.

Ami's face dropped and her mind quickly tried to think of a plan. There was a buzzer at the door and Dr. Lee quickly turned to talk to the guard. Ami quickly walked to Usagi and pretended that she was looking at her wings. She stepped behind her and moved her head right next to her ear. "Were coming for you tonight. Try to be ready."

Usagi quickly nodded as slow tears coursed down her cheeks. She felt her friend move away but not before she quickly squeezed her hand and gave her a quick smile. She watched Ami walk back to Dr. Lee and they both left her cell. She pulled her wings back and continued to eat her food.

Ami looked back at the cell once more and followed the doctor out of his office. She said goodbye and walked down the street to the corner. Once she was out of sight of the lab she called her husband who quickly picked her up. She did not want to speak until she could tell everyone what she had found. This time, the meeting place was at her and Zoisite's home because it was closer to Beryl's apartment. They planned on speaking with her next. Mina, Rei, Mako, Jade, Nephrite, and Mal were all ready in the living room when Zoi, Mamoru and Ami entered. Ami wasted no time in telling them what she found.

"I really think we need to go there tonight and get her, even if we have to break in. Dr. Lee looked too excited about Usagi, and he told me he planned on handing her over to the authorities." She leaned against her husband as the tears she didn't let herself shed emerged. "She looks so broken, we have to help her. I can't stand having her stay there any longer. I think we should get her out first then confront Beryl."

"Ami's right. We need to go there tonight. I'm sure they have plenty of security but I feel that Dr. Lee wouldn't make the mistake of calling anyone for help because he did kidnap Usagi." Mamoru looked to his watch. It was almost six at night and they needed to move fast if they were going to free Usagi. He looked back at the group around him. "Mal, Nephrite, Jade, Zoi and I will go. You girls are going to be sitting in the car and when we get Usagi, we are going to pass her off to you."

Rei nodded and stood up. "We'll take her back to my place because I'm sure they wouldn't think to look for her there. I also think that we should split up afterwards and meet up tomorrow afternoon." The group agreed and they quickly separated to get ready for the hard night they were going to endure.
