To all my loyal reviewers...I'm sorry about the tourture...especially Myri78...but I'm learning from the master to torture :points at myinterests: ...um...I mean...cough.
Imortal Sailor Cosmos...I hope this answers your question on what he was doing for a week.
I put Minako's song translation at the begining as it is a weighted message This is the last verse from Princess Moon...one of MANY songs that inspired this story and along with all the others has popped up at one point or another. The other song in this chapter...in case you might not have guessed it, is Ginga Ichi Mibun Chigai na Kataomoi, in which the translation is at the bottom of the page for you. If you have never heard it...I suggest you do...for it is a very powerfull and emotional song...written for yours truly.
I unfortunately still don't own Sailor Moon, and probably never will...wait... :Checks crystal ball: Nope...never will. I don't own the songs either...Shimatta...I own nothing but this story.
All by herself
For the man she loves so dearly
She's waiting, waiting, and waiting
Moon, Moon Princess

Chapter Six
Tatta hitori no
Aishite kureru hito wo
Matteru matteru matteru no
Moon Moon Princess
As Minako finished her last song of the first half hour of her show, she put phase two of her grand master plan in motion.
"Minna," she said. "Not only did I ask you here to preview my new songs, demo I have a friend who wants to sing." 'Again,' she thought. "This person asked me where he could get the most honest review for his song, so I brought him here. I hope you guys don't mind." A shake of heads from the audience was the answer. "And I hope you are as honest with him as you are with me." Nods And with that, Minako walked off the stage.
"Who is it?" Usagi asked. "Isn't she going to introduce him?" Just then the music started and she turned her attention back to the stage. It remained dark.
Kagayaku shiroi sekai no naka ni
Tsubasa wo hirogeta kimi ga iru
Demo sono tsubasa wa kuroku omoku
Unmei ni kimi wa oshitsubusaresou
'Now, this voice sounds really familiar,' Usagi thought. 'Where have I heard it before? And why is that stage still dark? Is he shy?'
Tasuketai, sukuitai, ore ni dekiru nara
Inochi sae nagedashite, kimi no tame ni….
'He sounds really good. I wonder what he looks like,' Usagi thought, still trying to place the voice.
Fuan no toki, tsurai toki, ore ga tsuite iru
Itsumo misete ite kure, kimi no egao……
'Why it almost sounds like……..'
All of the sudden, lights flooded the stage, revealing the singer with the next line. Red suit, navy blue shirt, yellow tie.
Seiya no ore ga kanjiru, fushigi na kimochi
Faitaa no ore ga kanjiru, shimeikan to wa chigatta...
Kitto ginga ichi mibun chigai na kataomoi da ne!
Usagi's eyes widened at the scene before her. 'Masaka!' she thought as her sapphire eyes met midnight ones. Seiya smiled and kept singing the song that was written for her, his Odango.
Kuuru na akai sekai no naka ni
Kanpeki na senshi, ore ga iru
Demo sono mae ni kimi wa araware
Totsuzen haato wa harisakesou da ze
Akogare wa, tada hitori ore no purinsesu
Hakai sae okoranakya, heiwa na hibi...
Nagarete kita, taiyoukei, kimi mo purinsesu
Aru hi miserareta, kimi no egao
Seiya no ore ga kanjiru, fushigi na kimochi
Faitaa no ore ga kanjiru, shimeikan to wa chigatta...
Kitto ginga ichi mibun chigai na kataomoi da ne
Hoshizora wo tsukinuke, ginga wo kirisaki
Mirai wo kimeru tatakai
Ima wa sukoshi de mo
Kimi no kioku no katasumi ni irareru you ni
Kami furimidashi dance dance dance!
Usagi kept staring dumbfounded at the stage. 'Am I dreaming? He can't really be here! He would have forgotten me by now!' Her thoughts were racing through her head.
Tasuketai,sukuitai, ore ni dekiru nara
Inochi sae nagedashite, kimi no tame ni..
Fuan no toki, tsurai toki, ore ga tsuite iru
Itsumo misete ite kure, kimi no egao
Seiya no ore ga kanjiru, fushigi na kimochi
Faitaa no ore ga kanjiru, shimeikan to wa chigatta...
Kitto ginga ichi mibun chigai na kataomoi da ne!
Seiya ended the song with a flourish that only he could accomplish. While the audience clapped, Usagi just stared, wide eyed at the man on the stage in front of her, not noticing the two men walking up behind her.
"He's been waiting a long while to share that song with you, Usagi-san."
Usagi jumped up and spun around just as the lights in the theater turned on to reveal a rather tall man with lovely violet eyes and long auburn hair that was tied back in a low ponytail. He was wearing black slacks and a dark purple dress shirt and dress shoes. Next to him was a much shorter man with long silver hair, pulled back in a similar fashion as the other, and pale peridot green eyes. He was wearing a green dress shirt, like the man next to him, but it was untucked. He was also wearing jeans and flip flops.
"Taiki-san……….Yaten-kun……" Usagi whispered.
"Konnichiwa……….Odango," Seiya had jumped off the stage and walked up behind her.
She turned to face him. "Seiya….." she said as she reached up to touch his face, just to make sure that he was really there in front of her. Just as she made contact, she gasped and fainted.
Everybody made a grab for Usagi, but Makoto reached her first, grabbing her friend before she could hit the ground.
"Let's take her to the greenroom," Minako said, leading the way with Makoto right behind her, followed by Seiya, Ami, Taiki, Rei and Yaten. Once in the greenroom, Makoto gently laid Usagi on the couch while Minako ran to the sink and dampened a paper towel. Seiya knelt down beside the couch that held his blonde haired angel. He brushed some of her hair out of her face when Minako walked up with the towel.
"Here," she said, handing it to the man kneeling next to her look alike and best friend. Seiya took the towel and gently places it on Usagi's forehead.
"Oi, Odango! Mezameru, watashi no tenshi," Seiya whispered in Usagi's ear. He heard a moan escape from her lips and pulled back so he was looking her in the face when she opened her eyes.
Usagi's eyelids fluttered a moment before they opened to her bright sapphire orbs that glanced about, wondering where she was, before they rested upon a pair of midnight blue eyes framed by raven hair.
"Seiya? Is that really you?" she asked, still not believing what she was seeing.
"Hai, Odango. It's me. I told you that I'd come back and visit," he whispered gently.
"Oh……Seiya…" she whispered, tears rolling down her cheeks. She pulled him into a tight, crushing hug, as if she didn't do just that, he would disappear. "I've missed you so much!"
The others, seeing that their friend was indeed alright and alert, took this as their cue to leave the two alone. They thought to give them a moment of privacy to get reacquainted after all these years.

If you want to hear these songs and don't really feel like searching for them, like I did, feel free to email me for I have them on my computer so I can hear Seiya sing whenever I write...teehee!
Ja ne!

Translations-
Mezameru, watashi no tenshi- wake up, my angel
Ginga Ichi Mibun Chigai na Kataomoi
In the brightly shining world of white
With your wings spread out wide, you are there
But those wings are so black and heavy on you
That you look like you're being crushed by your destiny
I want to help you, I want to rescue you, if I can do it
I would even throw away my life, all for you...
When you're uneasy, when it's painful, I am there with you
Always keep showing to me your smiling face
I, Seiya, feel it, this wondrous feeling
I, Fighter, feel it, different from my mission
This surely is unrequited love, a station apart in the galaxy
In the cool world of red
I am the perfect soldier, and I am there
But right here in front of me you appear
All of a sudden my heart feels it's about to burst open
My longing is for only one person, my precious princess
Even destruction must occur for peace day after day...
I came flowing here to the solar system, and you too are a princess
One day I was bewitched by your smiling face
I, Seiya, feel it, this wondrous feeling
I, Fighter, feel it, different from my mission
This surely is unrequited love, a station apart in the galaxy
Piercing through the starry sky, cutting up the galaxy
The battle to decide the future
Now, if I can be at all
So that I will be somewhere within a corner of your memory
With my hair disheveled, I dance, dance, dance
I want to help you, I want to rescue you, if I can do it
I would even throw away my life, all for you...
When you're uneasy, when it's painful, I am there with you
Always keep showing to me your smiling face
I, Seiya, feel it, this wondrous feeling
I, Fighter, feel it, different from my mission
This surely is unrequited love, a station apart in the galaxy
