Avenging Angel

Chapter 5

Reiji's Annoyance



Disclaimer: The usual, I don't own Sailor Moon or Weiss Kruez but the story is mine. Thank you for all of the great reviews. I am trying to decide who to pair Usagi up with, but can't really decide. So I decided to let you guys vote, and see who it is.

************************************************************************

Three weeks passed after the funeral, and Usagi had become quite fond of her Oji Takatori Shuuchi, and he felt the same way about her. Today Usagi was sitting on a cushion next to the window while Shuuchi was talking to someone on the phone.

Usagi looked up when the door leading to the waiting room opened and Manx walked in with a bunch of papers and documents for Shuuchi to go over.

"Here is the paperwork that will make you Usagi-San's legal guardian, all you have to do is sign your name on the dotted line and it will be official."

Shuuchi looked down at the documents and signed his name, were it was required. When he was done he looked at Usagi and smiled at her affectionately. Usagi smiled back with relief that Shuuchi was her guardian and not Reiji.

Manx also handed Shuuchi some other papers that would enroll Usagi in to her new school. Shuuchi took those as well and signed his name on them. Shuuchi nodded his head and Manx left his office to file the legal papers at the Courthouse, and drop off the registration papers at the new School.

Shuuchi turned to Usagi again and asked:

"How are you holding up, Usagi-Chan?"

Usagi turned her attention away from the window and smiled sadly at her Oji.

"I'm holding up okay, I guess. I just have a lot of things going through my mind right now." She told him trying to keep herself from crying in front of her Oji.

Shuuchi studied his Mei Usagi, and smiled gently at her. Even though she was in pain emotionally, she tried not to show it. But the pain was etched in her face, and her sapphire blue eyes were the mirrors to her soul. They expressed her emotions far more than words ever could.

Before he could ask her if she wanted to talk they heard a commotion in the waiting room. He motioned Usagi to go in to the next room, but before she even got there the doors burst open, and Takatori Reiji stormed in to the office followed by two of his bodyguards.

"Shuuchi-Niisan, what's this I hear about you being Usagi-Chan's legal guardian?!" he yelled.

Usagi's eyes narrowed with rage.

"Who does he think he is?! Reiji-Oji-San was the one who ordered the death of my Family!!! He has no right adding endearments too my name!" she thought.

Takaori Shuuchi stood up and looked at his Eldest Ototo firmly and replied.

"Kenji-Niisan had made me Usagi-Chan's guardian in his will. I have signed the proper legal documents that will make it official. Usagi-Chan is my ward until her Eighteenth Birthday, after which; she will inherit what her Otosan had left her in his last will and testament."

Takatori-Reiji was enraged. He had gone to all the trouble of having Crawford forge his youngest Ototo's will. Only to find out that ten minutes ago, Shuuchi's aide had filed the legal documents making his younger ototo-Shuuchi, Usagi's legal guardian. He looked over at his young Mei, studying her thoughtfully for a few moments.

Her features were the exact same as his Musuko Omi-Kun, they could have passed as a twin brother and sister easily. When he looked in to her eyes however he stepped back in fear. A cold chill going up and down his spine. Usagi's eyes were so cold that they took on the appearance of glacier pools. If this was what those five young people saw that day outside of the cemetery, he didn't blame them for tearing down the road in their car. It was like she was daring him to pull something in Shuuchi's office, or even try to hurt her favorite Oji-Shuuchi. Her eyes promised a slow and painful death, to anyone who even took one step towards him

Reiji took another step back.

"No doubt about it, Usagi-Chan would rather kill me then join me." He thought. His thoughts were interrupted when he heard his Mei say coldly.

"Take a picture Red, it will last longer."

Reiji looked behind him and saw Schuldich avert his eyes, even Usagi's cold glare was unnerving him.

Shuuchi was watching all of this and almost laughed. Here was his Eldest Ototo-Reiji, along with two of his most dangerous bodyguards: Schuldich the telepath, and Farfarello the Homicidal Psychopath, being intimidated by his sixteen year old Mei. Farfarello was staring at Usagi with wide eyes, and his fingers were twitching, as if he wanted to get one of his knives out and ward off any attacks that Usagi might use.

"Good day gentlemen, the door is right behind you." He told them still trying to hide his amusement.

Reiji snapped out of his daze, and glared at Shuuchi.

"I will somehow get her on my side." He thought to himself, but then he jumped when he heard Usagi's voice in his head.

"No Reiji-San, you will not. You are the one who ordered my family's murder. So believe me when I say that you, and your bodyguards will wish that you had never heard of me, or killed my family for that matter. This I swear to the goddess Selene, You will pay for the Death of My Family!!!"

Reiji blinked and stared at his Mei. Her appearance had somehow changed. There was a very faint marking on her forehead. An Eight pointed star with four different colors" Red, Blue, Green, and Orange. There was also a Crescent Moon in the middle of the eight-pointed star that was glowing a golden color. Her hair had also started to show Silver streaks here and there. Her eyes that was once the color of Sapphire's were now a more deeper shade of Blue.

Schuldich also heard Usagi's telepathic vow. His interest in Takatori's Mei had just gone up a couple of notches.

"So, she is also a telepath. So that's why her mind is so well shielded, she learned to protect her mind from other people's thoughts. Hmm, This has just made the game even more interesting."

Schuldich smirked and then froze.

"Who said anything about this being a game, Schuldich-San? If it were a game there would be rules. However, you can think of it as a game if you like. But you can bet that it's one that you will lose." Usagi told him in his mind.

Schuldich blinked, and then mentally smirked.

"We will see about that Fraulin, I always play to win."

Usagi glared at him.

"So my Otosan's spirit told me on the night he and my family died, I believe that your exact mental words were, and I quote. Don't' worry about your Musume, Takatori, Reiji will take good care of her, as will I. She will make an excellent play toy after the election." She said and smirked when Schuldich went pale.

"So you mean to tell me that you knew along that it was us?" Schuldich responded. Not believing that this young girl could see her Family's spirits, as well as being an exceptionally strong telepath.

Usagi gave him a mental nod of her head, and replied:

"You got it Baka-Yaro, I know that you heard my vow to Reiji-San, and I meant every single word of it."

Schuldich continued to stare at her, and then grinned.

"Well then Fraulin, Let the games begin." He told her.

While this mental exchange was going on. Shuuchi and Reiji were finishing up their own verbal exchange.

"This isn't over Shuuchi-Niisan, I am going to fight this legal guardian situation, and gain custody of Usagi-Chan.

Shuuchi stood there impassive, but inside he was furious. He knew perfectly well why Reiji wanted Usagi, and he would be damned before he'd let Reiji turn Usagi-Chan in to one of his pawns.

"Very well Reiji-Kun, but I am going to put up a very huge fight. I am not going to let you use Usagi-Chan, just so you can get more votes for the election." He informed him cooly.

Reiji Takatori and his bodyguards left Shuuchi's office leaving a confused Manx, A determined Shuuchi, and a more then enraged Usagi behind.



I know that Usagi isn't a telepath in the Manga, but I thought that it would make the story more interesting. Next Chapter: Usagi goes to school and meets Omi.

Mei: Niece

Baka: Stupid, idiot, Jerk.

Yaro: Ass. (I think.)
