Her Pure heart
Chapter 2
Haruka's P.O.V
I pulled Usagi close as her transformation broke leaving her in her school uniform and barely conscious. Turning to Mamauro we shared a look of concern. The rest of the scouts gathered around our family all asking questions at the same time. Mamauro raised his hand quickly silencing them as I kneeled letting Usagi rest on the ground her upper body against my chest as Chibiusa came and curled up next to her the young scout looking much younger then normal. "She is okay Chibiusa," I whispered as the pinkette looked up at me, her eyes wide as she gripped Usagi's skirt
Mamauro sighed softly and finally addressed the scouts, "She is okay, she has just used to much energy in defeating this enemy. We will go back to my apartment and have a meeting to discuss these events and allow both Usagi and Chibiusa to rest somewhere safe." He stated not leaving any room for argument as the scouts nodded and jumped away heading to the apartment as Saturn came forward and helped Chibiusa to stand.
"I will escort your daughter to the apartment if that is okay," Saturn said curtly and I found myself nodded as the scout of death and rebirth took Chibiusa's hand and teleported them away leaving only Usagi, Mamauro and myself.
"She looks so peaceful," I commented as Mamauro kneeled down beside me and gently touched the princesses' cheek. He nodded to my statement as he picked Usagi and carefully positioned her in his arms. Standing I nodded as we teleported to his apartment meeting all the scouts there. Ignoring them we took her to his bedroom and together we gently tucked her in; making sure she was comfortable. Finally, after a moment we moved back to the sitting room were everyone was waiting for us.
"What happened out there?" Venus asked almost immediately as we sat down, Chibiusa moving to our side quickly.
"Usagi forced Master Pharaoh90 to absorb to much positive energy causing his to dissolve and be destroyed," Saturn stated looking at the on-edge scout, "It was the only safe way for him to be defeated as I closed the fissure in the sky preventing the taro system from entering earth's atmosphere."
"But why would she need to be the one to do it?" Mars asked harshly her distain for Saturn clear.
"She is the only one with enough power he would have instantly destroyed anyone else who attempted what we did. It was the only way to stop the destruction." Saturn countered as Mamauro came over and placed a hand on the young scout's shoulder.
"She is correct we all know what Usagi will do to protect the earth." Mamauro stated, "This was her decision and none of us have the right to question it. She is your princess and leader so what she decides to do you do not get to question." This caused all the scouts to pause and look down knowing that the Earth prince was correct and that they had no rights to argue.
I sighed as Neptune and Pluto came over to me both showing their support with what Mamauro had said. Nodding to them I moved back into the prince's bedroom leaving the male to deal with any question or opinions that the inner scouts wanted to express; knowing that the rest of the outer scouts would back and support him. Looking at the sleeping Princess in the bed I felt my heart constrict. I hated whenever she was injured, it only made me think of our first meeting.
*Flashback*
I smirked as the first a of the Deathbusters was defeated before taking off following Neptune. I could feel that one of the other scouts was following us so we split off, allowing me to lead the scout trailing us away from her. Smirking as I came upon a cliff I stopped and hid in the tears gasping as she burst into the clearing. This was not just any scout this was my princess my soulmate for the silver millennium. My Serenity. Jumping down from the trees I quickly made my way to her and cupped her chin, "Serenity… finally I have you," I whispered and gently kiss her.
The young girls eyes went wide as I deepened the kiss tangling my hand in her golden locks and wrapping my arm around her waist pulling her flush against me. I feel her stiffen before she sinks into the kiss, her face flushing as her eyes fluttered shut. Smirking I pulled back just as her scouts arrived. Scooping my Princess up I jumped back into the tree's feeling from the Inner Scouts. I ignored her slight protest as I sped up causing her to squeak and wrap her arms lightly around my neck. I smirked knowing that both Neptune and I would be able to protect her better then those brats she called her Guardians. The inner scouts were so weak in comparison to us Outer scouts. Quickly catching up to Neptune I smirked as she gasped.
"Princess Serenity," Neptune kneeled in front of the blond as I gently set her down keeping her close, "I am Sailor Neptune guardian of the ocean planet, protect of the outer solar system." She stated bowing her head as I repeated her actions but this time I took her head.
"My love I am Sailor Uranus, guardian of the planet of wind, Protector of the outer solar system and your soulmate." I whispered looking up at the young girl. Serenity's eyes were wide with confusion.
"S-soulmate…?" She whispered softly her eyes growing scared, "w-what are you talking about! I-I'm with Mamauro…. I don't even remember you," She said quickly and tired to pull away.
Sighing softly, I stood and gently pulled her close before pulling her flush against me and pulling of her tiara and kissing the golden moon that sat on her forehead. She gasped softly as her body went limp and collapsed in my arms. Picking her back up I nodded to Neptune as we made our way to my car. Gently getting her secured in the back we let our transformations fade as we drove back to the city. I knew that my Serenity would be unconscious for a while as she was reliving her past with Endymion and I.
"You unlocked her memory did you not?" Neptune asked.
"Yes. We can protect her far better then those weaklings that she calls guardians." I replied not keeping my distain for them a secret. Back in the silver millennium they had done everything in their power to keep Endymion and I from our princess; until the queen intervened and told that that enough was enough. They believed that they had a right to dictate who she saw and what she did. They may be here "guardians" but that did not mean they knew anything.
"Both Trista and I will support you Haruka. She deserve happiness and so do you," Neptune smiled at me.
"Thank you Michiru," I smiled at my oldest friend. We continued to drive back to the city as Serenity slept peacefully in the back seat. Her face young and it held so much innocence. We soon arrived at our builds and carefully I carried her up to my apartment, Michiru going to talk to Trista.
I gently placed Serenity on my bed and sat beside her just watching her. Her features were younger then before I can only guess she is around 15 instead of 18 as she was in the past. However, this did not matter to me; as it would allow me to have more time with her, creating a far stronger relationship. As well as allow me to teach her and show her many different pleasures in the world. It would allow me to just simply enjoy her once this enemy was defeated. Hearing a soft groan from the bed I smiled as her eyes open, "Hello my Princess."
She looked up at me her eyes wide, "Uranus…?" She whispered softly as her transformation broke leaving her in a pair of cute pink pajamas. I chuckled at this and gently cupped her chin.
"Yes Serenity; it is truly me," I whispered and kissed her forehead.
"U-Usagi…." She whispered in a soft stutter, "I go by Usagi now."
I smirked at that as her name truly did suit her, "My cute little Usagi," I whispered and kissed her deeply.
*End of Flashback*
I sighed and looked back down at her, as I heard her groan. Smiling I touched her cheek, "Welcome back princess," I whispered softly and let my transformation fall as I slipped into the bed behind her and pulled her into between my legs. She looked up at me and gave me a sleepy smile.
"How long was I out?" She asked softly as she snuggled closer to me.
"around an hour," I replied pulling her hair free from its buns and began to run my fingers through it, "Endymion is dealing with the scouts," I explained to her as she nodded but did not move away from me, she only snuggled closer. I smiled and kissed her forehead gently as we sat there in silence content to just be together.
Mamauro's P.O.V
I sighed as the inner scouts finally left after interrogating both Saturn and I for almost a full hour, looking behind me, I smiled as I spouted Chibiusa and Hotaru sleeping together on the couch peacefully cuddled together. Carefully I draped a blanket over them and move to the bedroom sensing Usagi awake. Smiling as I spotted her long blonde out of its normal up do. Carefully I pushed off the door frame and entered the room transforming out of my outfit for tuxedo mask. I made my way over to the bed and sat down next to my shared soulmate. Not that I hated sharing her, because even though Haruka and I did not always get along, but we both agree that we would always protect the young innocent blonde. I could however admit that I did miss when it was just the two of us. Usagi smiled up at me as I took her hand as she settled between the two of us, both of us just comfortable to sitting in comfortable silence as Usagi soon began to fall back asleep.
"How did the interrogation go?" Haruka asked softly. I turned to her and started to explain what had happened.
"The inner scouts just kept questioning everything that she had decided to do and Saturn's roll in the matter. They hold so much hostility towards the outer scouts, specifically you." I stated and sighed, "They need to grow up, well Mars, Jupiter, and Mercury do or else they are going to get someone hurt with there stupidity and recklessness."
"I agree. Maybe they need to start to train. That would let them better their skills and maybe fix their attitude problem," Haruka suggested after a moment. I needed as what she was saying sounded like a good idea. They needed to get stronger and training was the best way to do it. Tomorrow was going to be interesting when they get their orders. I smirked and flipped off the lights as we both settled down next to Usagi.
