Chapter Thirteen

-Ichi-no-Hashi Park, 1:30 am-

Seiya was lounging on a nearby park bench, thinking about his favorite, blonde haired woman. 'I wish people would just quit interrupting me every time I try to tell her how I feel,' he thought to himself as he banged his fist into the wood of the bench. 'It's like the Gods are torturing me!'

He tilted his head back to look into the night sky. His indigo eyes searched the heavens of Earth until he spotted a certain star, just off to the right of the moon. He smiled as he looked upon Kinmoku, hoping everything was alright back on his birth planet.

A noise sounded to his right, bringing him back to Earth, so to speak. It put all of his senses on high alert, even though his outward appearance never changed.

"I see you're late," Seiya said into the darkness, standing up from the bench.

"Hmph!" Came the answer as a tall, short haired woman stepped out of the shadows and into Seiya's line of vision.

"What did you want, Haruka-san?"

"Why did you come back?" She grumbled, crossing her arms.

"I believe I already answered that question. We were asked to come back by Minako-chan."

"Then I suppose you know that Mamoru-san is dead?"

"Hai. That is why we are back."

Haruka's green-grey eyes narrowed with anger as she questioned the raven haired man, "Nani?"

Seiya raised his hands in defense. "Iie, Haruka-san! It's not what you think!"

"It's exactly what I think!" Haruka said, balling her hands into fists in anger. "Now that Mamoru-san is gone you thought you would just meander back into her life and mess with Koneko-chan's heart, didn't you!"

"Iie, Haruka-san…"

"And you thought, what, we would just sit back and watch you do it again?" Haruka growled. "What's to happen to her when you leave again? You leave, and we're left with the emotional wreck you leave behind?"

"Demo…..Haruka-san…" Seiya tried to interject.

"Do you even know what she's been though since you left? And now you just come waltzing back into her life-"

"DAMARE YO!" Seiya yelled at the woman, silencing her instantly.

"Nani yo anata," (Who do you think you are) Haruka growled in a low, menacing voice, her eyes narrowing even more, "to tell me to shut up."

"Well, if you would let me ex-"

Haruka pulled out her henshin wand before Seiya could even finish his sentence.

"URANUS CRYSTAL-"

Before she could finish her transformation phrase, Seiya snatched her henshin wand from her grasp.

"YAMERO!" (STOP IT!) He shouted at the would be Sailor Uranus. "YOU wanted to talk, so we're going to talk!"

He placed Haruka's henshin wand down upon the bench, while she watched with a look of pure hatred on her face. Seiya then pulled his henshin star out of his pocket and placed it upon the bench, next to the wand of Uranus.

"This is between you and me. Haruka and Seiya, NOT Sailor Uranus and Sailor Star Fighter.," Seiya said in a low voice, his indigo eyes flashing.

"As you wish, Kou," Haruka said, smirking as she started towards him.

)O( )O( )O( )O( )O( )O( )O( )O( )O( )O(

Ring! Ring!

Usagi opened her eyes at the sound of her phone ringing. She looked at the clock to see that it was almost one thirty in the morning.

Ring! Ring!

"Who would be calling at this time of night," she mumbled to herself as she reached over a sleeping Luna to answer the phone.

"Moshi….moshi," she answered sleepily.

"Usagi-chan? Gomen ne for calling so late," a voice said on the other end.

"Michiru-chan?" Usagi asked, waking up a little more at the sound of her unexpected caller.

"Hai…. You…haven't , well, heard from Haruka, have you?" Michiru asked worriedly.

"Iie. I haven't seen her since last night. Dōshite?" (Why?)

"She hasn't come home and I'm worried."

"Demo, this is Haruka-chan we're talking about!" Usagi said, trying to cheer up her distressed friend. "I mean, what could she………." Usagi suddenly stopped mid-sentence as a memory of Haruka whispering to Seiya the previous night came into her mind. "Masaka!"

"Nani?" Michiru asked.

"Chotto matte, kudasai," Usagi said as she put down the regular phone and picked up her cell phone. 'Kami-sama, onegai, don't let me be right!' she thought as she dialed Seiya's number.

Ring! Ring!

'Please pick up!'

Ring! Ring!

'Kami-sama! Onegai!'

Ring! Ring!

"Moshi, moshi. Seiya no cell phone desu……"

"Shimatta!" Usagi cursed as she hung up the phone.

"Usagi?" Michiru asked.

"Just one more moment!" Usagi said as she dialed Taiki's number.

Ring! Ring!

'Oh please pick up!'

Ring! Rin-

"Moshi, moshi," a groggy Taiki answered.

"Taiki-san? Usagi desu. Gomen ne for waking you, demo, is Seiya there? He's not answering his phone."

"Hang on a second," he said, accompanied by sounds of rustling as he got out of bed. All Usagi could hear was his breathing as he walked from his room to Seiya's. She heard him knock on a door.

"Seiya?" He knocked again, a little louder this time. "Seiya?"

Usagi heard the sound of a door opening as she held her breath.

"Seiya?" She heard Taiki call. "Shimatta, where is that man!"

"Usagi-san, you have an idea of where he is, don't you?" Taiki asked into the phone.

Usagi help up both phones as she relayed her worst fear. "I think Haruka-chan is in Ichi-no-Hashi Park with Seiya!"

"NANI?" Both Michiru and Taiki exclaimed.

"There's no time to explain! We have to get to Ichi-no-Hashi Park before something terrible happens!"

"I'll be right there!" Michiru exclaimed as she hung up the phone.

"I'll wake Yaten and we'll be right there," Taiki said and hung up the phone.

Usagi flung the covers off of her as she turned on her bedside light, flinging Luna along with the bedding.

"Oi! Usagi-chan!" The black cat exclaimed, quite vexed that she was awoken from her slumber in such a manner.

"Gomen ne, Luna, demo, Seiya's in trouble!" Usagi cried as she picked up her brooch and pulled her bedroom door open.

"Demo….." Luna started, but Usagi was already down the stairs and out the door. Luna ran to follow her.

)O( )O( )O( )O( )O( )O( )O( )O( )O( )O(

Taiki rushed from Seiya's room to Yaten's door and pounded on it.

"Yaten! Wake up!" He called though the door. He raised his fist to knock again when the door suddenly opened, revealing a sleepy, green eyed Starlight.

"Nani yo, Taiki?" Yaten asked, yawning.

"Seiya's in trouble," he said, rushing back to his room. He grabbed his henshin star from its resting place on his nightstand and rushed to the front door, pausing to slip on his shoes.

"Aren't you even going to get dressed?" Yaten asked, eyeing Taiki in his dark purple pajama bottoms and his unbound hair.

"Iie. There's no time. Are you coming or not?" The violet eyed man asked, opening the door to their apartment.

"Hai! Matte!" He said, rushing back to his nightstand to grab his henshin star. He looked down at his silver silk pajamas and shrugged. He grabbed a tie for his long, silver hair and followed Taiki out the door.

)O( )O( )O( )O( )O( )O( )O( )O( )O( )O(

Michiru hung up the phone and dashed out of her and Haruka's bedroom, pulling on a robe. She ran straight into Setsuna.

"Ah! Gomen, Setsuna!" Michiru exclaimed.

"Daijōbu, Michiru?" The green haired woman asked as she set her garnet colored eyes on her disheveled friend.

"Iie, Setsuna. Haruka! Seiya!" Michiru said incoherently.

"Nani?" Setsuna asked, a sense of foreboding filling her mind.

"No time to explain! But I could use your help! Come with me! I'll explain in the car!" Michiru said, rushing towards the garage door.

"But what about Hotaru-chan?"

"She'll be alright," Michiru said, grabbing the car keys off of the wall next to the door. "Seiya's in trouble, and the trouble is Haruka!"

"Kami-sama!" Setsuna cried, following the teal haired woman out of the house, grabbing her henshin wand along the way.

)O( )O( )O( )O( )O( )O( )O( )O( )O( )O(

Usagi was running full force down the street, barefooted, in just her green cotton pajamas. She was followed closely by a black cat with a crescent moon on its forehead.

"Chotto. Matte! Usagi!" Luna called.

"Nani, Luna?" Usagi asked not stopping.

"Where are you going? What's going on?" asked the inquisitive feline.

"Seiya! Haruka!" Was all Usagi huffed out in between breaths.

"Nani?"

"No time! Must hurry!" Usagi cried, her long blonde hair streaming behind her. She quickened her pace once she got to the edge of the park. Just as she reached the gate, two cars came to a screeching halt, one from either direction.

Out of one car exited Michiru, in her aquamarine colored robe, and Setsuna, in her dark green nightshirt. Out of the other came Taiki and Yaten, both in their pajamas, but Yaten tied his hair back. All six (Luna included) went running into the park with Usagi leading the way.

)O( )O( )O( )O( )O( )O( )O( )O( )O( )O(

Haruka ran straight for Seiya, her fist raised. He dodged the assault, but before he could recover, her other fist made contact with his stomach, sending him flying backwards into a tree.

Seiya regained his footing and glared at Haruka.

"Is that all you've got?" He asked as he rushed towards the tall woman with a counter attack.

)O( )O( )O( )O( )O( )O( )O( )O( )O( )O(

"HAYAKU!" Usagi cried, running even faster than before, followed by Luna, Taiki, Setsuna, Michiru and Yaten.

)O( )O( )O( )O( )O( )O( )O( )O( )O( )O(

Seiya retaliated from Haruka's attack by throwing a punch at the tall woman, which she easily dodged. Seiya turned and went after her again. Just as he was about to make contact, she jumped and landed right behind him. She was now standing in front of the bench that held both of their henshin devices.

Haruka looked over her shoulder and smirked. As quick as the wind, she grabbed both her wand and his star. Seiya tried to grab her arm, but she jumped out of the way.

"URANUS CRYSTAL POWER, MAKE UP!" She yelled, transforming in mid air.

She landed and smirked at Seiya.

"You don't fight fair," He said in a low voice.

"I will do anything to protect my Princess," Sailor Uranus said, raising her hand into the air.

"WORLD……..SHAKING!"

)O( )O( )O( )O( )O( )O( )O( )O( )O( )O(

The group of six were nearing where Usagi and Seiya met Haruka and Michiru the previous evening when suddenly they heard a voice cry out to their right.

"URANUS CRYSTAL POWER, MAKE UP!"

'Shimatta!' Usagi thought, changing her course.

"Oh my Gods!" Both Setsuna and Michiru cried, following their princess.

'Kami-sama! Onegai, let him have his henshin star!' Taiki thought.

'Oh no she didn't!' Yaten thought, hoping to hear his friend's transformation phrase in the next couple of seconds following Uranus', but it didn't come.

They entered the clearing to see Seiya, standing with his feet apart and his fist clenched, ready to strike his opponent. Ten feet from him, Sailor Uranus stood, smirking. One hand was in the air while the other was holding Seiya's henshin star. Neither one noticed the group's entrance into the clearing.

Taiki's violet eyes narrowed when hi spotted the star in the Wind Senshi's hand. He didn't think twice.

"MAKER STAR CRYSTAL POWER, MAKE UP!"

Yaten saw this and followed suit.

"HEALER STAR CRYSTAL POWER, MAKE UP!"

"WORLD…..SHAKING!"

"IIE!" Usagi screamed as the ball of golden energy flew towards the one she loved. She ran towards Seiya.

Both Seiya and Uranus turned their heads towards the direction of the scream. Seiya saw Usagi sprinting towards him, her loose golden hair flying behind her. In the few seconds it took for Seiya to register her presence, he felt himself being shoved to the ground, seconds before Uranus' attack was to hit him. Her scream was the last thing he heard before darkness took him.

)O( )O( )O( )O( )O( )O( )O( )O( )O( )O(

Uranus looked on, horrified as her princess ran for her attack's target. There was nothing she could do to stop the attack. She watched helplessly as Usagi shoved Seiya out of it's path, just in time for it to hit her.

"AHHHHHHHH!" She screamed as her petite form was engulfed by the golden ball of energy.

)O( )O( )O( )O( )O( )O( )O( )O( )O( )O(

I hope you like this chapter…I'm sorry….but I don't think I'm any good at writing fight scenes…..oh well…..

Yes…that was new transformations for the Starlights. They also have new attacks which you will maybe see next chapter, along with an explanation, but only if you're nice and review.
