The Wife of Four
Disclaimer: I don't own Fushigi Yugi or Sailor Moon
AN: Also, in case you didn't know. This takes place after Miaka got Tamahome back from Yui but before the summoning ceremony. So technically, Chiriko is really Amiboshi. Also you might get confused later on when I had the same person being called a him and then a her later, it's based on the Suzaku seishi's view of the person.

"So who's the little groupie?"
"They're my bodyguards," Usagi replied. She turned to the girls and said, "Guys, why don't you introduce yourselves?"
A girl with short blue hair that ended below her ears stepped forward and bowed slightly. Her blue eyes held a darker shade of blue than Usagi's. She wore a pale blue dress that ended to her knees with long sleeves and navy blue leggings. "My name's Ami, guardian from Sieryuu." A pair of crystal blue daggers were strapped to both sides of her hips.
"Rei," said a girl, about the same age. She took several glances to her princess's brothers and his friends with her dark purple eyes. She had long black hair that ended up to her waist. The dress she wore was dark red with sleeves that came to her elbows. The leggings were the same color as the dress. A red wood bow was strapped to her waist with red feathered arrows fastened together on her back. "Guardian from Suzaku."
"Guardian from Genbu, Makoto." Dark brown hair was tied into a high ponytail. Her dark green eyes studied each of the boys, wondering if anyone was a good fighter. She wore a sleeveless dark green dress ending at her mid-thigh with a lighter shade of green leggings. A long wooden staff with a sharp metal end was fastened to her back.
A girl with paler blond hair than Usagi and duller blue eyes smiled at the group ahead of them. "Minako, guardian from Byakko." She wore a yellow dress with flared out sleeves that ended at mid-thigh with pale orange leggings. A metal whip appeared like a string of tiny hearts were rounded together and tied around her waist.
A small child, about the age of twelve, hid behind Haruka and stared at the strangers with curious wide purple eyes. Chin length black hair helped emphasize her child-like appearance. "Hotaru, guardian from Genbu." She wore a dark purple dress with sleeves covering her arms and bottom palms of her hands ending down to her knees with black leggings. Her hands clutched a long scythe with the glaive curved inward.
The oldest of the group smiled at them with maroon red eyes, long dark green hair was let down and rested to her waist with a single bun tied up. "Setsuna, guardian from Byakko." She held onto a tall staff with a dark red orb on top.
Usagi pointed at Michiru and Haruka. "And you guys met Michiru, guardian from Seiryuu, and Haruka, guardian from Suzaku," she said.
She looked over to her brother and his friends and noticed the angered looks on their faces. "Onii-chan, why are your friends…"
"What the hell's the matter with ya?" Tasuki shouted. He was oblivious to the death glares being pointed at him, not by just Usagi's guards, but b the emperor and Nuriko. "Bringing guardians of Seiryuu over here, they could be Seiryuu seishi for all we know."
Hotohori and Nuriko were about to throw away all signs of common sense and pound the spitfire thief, when Haruka grabbed Tasuki by the collar and glared at him with greater intensity than the emperor and his friend can put together. "Watch your mouth, Suzaku seishi, or I'll rip if off your face," he growled harshly.
"We're not the Seiryuu seishi, though we both serve the same god, we are nothing alike," Michiru said, calmly prying her lover's iron grip on the bandit.
"Seriyuu seishi are purely human 100," Ami said, "But as guardians of Sieryuu, we were created by him for one sole purpose."
"And that would be?" Tamahome asked, still a bit suspicious of the guardians surrounding the princess.
"To protect me," Usagi replied.
Miaka's eyes narrowed as she pursed her lips. "Why are they created to protect you and not the Seiryuu no miko?" she asked.
"Not to mention, why do you guys use the names of the other gods as well?" Chichiri asked.
"Do you guys even have a clue who Usagi is?" Rei asked. When she saw the blank looks on their faces, she glared angrily at them. "You guys don't even know at all….YOU'RE AN EMBARASSMENT TO MY GOD!"
"Rei, calm down," Makoto said, "Not everyone in Konan has to know about Usagi-chan."
Usagi clapped her hands to get everyone's attention. "Why don't we go and get something to eat and have some tea?" she suggested, "I didn't get to eat anything since this morning."
Hotohori nodded his head and took Usagi's hand, leading her to the dining room, as she talked animatedly with Nuriko. The Suzaku seishi watched in amazement as the eight warriors walked behind the two royalties, hovering protectively around them, but at the same time, giving them their space. These people took their jobs seriously, not even the seishis were like this unless they were under attack.

The Suzaku seishi covered their faces and moaned embarrassedly as Miaka squealed with delight at the sight of the food placed on the table. Plate after plate of the most scrumptious looking delicacies looked almost too good to eat. Miaka stared at the foods with wide green eyes and drool slid down her chin. The fifteen-year-old miko quickly raced to her seat at the table.
Usagi stared in amazement, as she sat down beside her brother, at the miko's speed as she gulped down large amount of food without choking. "She must've been starving," Usagi said, smiling, "You could've ate without us, onii-chan."
"It doesn't matter either way, Usagi-chan," Nuriko said, taking his seat beside the emperor, "This glutton is always like this whenever she sees food."
"Usagi-sama, may you tell us exactly who you are?" Chichiri asked politely.
Usagi lifted up her chopsticks and brought an egg roll to her plate. "My name is Usagi. I'm the second oldest among the royal children. I'm the younger sister of a Suzaku seishi called Hotohori…"
Tasuki stood up and shouted, "We all ready knew that! Tell us something we don't know!"
Haruka made a movement to grab his sword and slit his throat, but Michiru and Hotaru grabbed both his arms and pulled him back down to his seat. "Let me go!" he shouted, "I warned him about watching his mouth!"
"Ruka-chan, calm down," Usagi said, waving at him to sit down, "Honestly, you need to stop threatening to kill any man who's within a five mile radius of me."
Miaka stopped eating and stared at Haruka, studying him real hard. "Aren't you a man as well, Haruka-san?" she asked, thinking nothing of the question that came out of her mouth.
"Of course, he's a guy, baka!" Tasuki yelled, hitting the miko on the head.
"Actually, I'm a woman," Haruka answered as if the question was something asked regularly.
"What?" Everybody but Usagi and her guardians stared at Haruka with wide eyes. They looked up and down Haruka's body, still not sure if Haruka was joking or beign serious.
"You guys don't believe me, huh?" Heads shook from side to side, as the eight guests tried to muffle their laughs. Haruka stood up. "All right, then. I'll show you." She grabbed the bottom of her shirt and started to lift it up.
"NO!" the Suzaku seshi shouted, "We believe you!"
"Anyway, back to the subject, Usagi-san, may you tell us exactly your role here?" Mitsukake asked.
"My role?" she repeated, "Actually I'm just here to see onii-chan, other than that, there's no other reason."
"No, that wasn't what I meant," the gentle doctor said softly.
"You mean, you want to know why the four gods want to keep me safe," Usagi said curiously.
"YES!" everybody shouted, making the young princess jump and spill her tea on the table.
Servants rushed to the table to wipe the spilled drink. "Why didn't you say so?" Usagi asked with a naïve smile on her face.
All the seishi, other than Hotohori and Nuriko, sighed in defeat. "We did say so," they thought silently.
AN: And that's the end of this chapter. So how was it? Send your reviews so I'll get your opinion.
Oh yeah, before I forget, I was thinking about adding a made up character that turns out to be Usagi's kid with one of the four gods. However, with all the hectic things happening on my side over here, I don't have any time to make one up. So…I'll need you, the reviewers, to help me.
