1Chapter 11-Odango, You're Safe In My Arms.
The next morning, Usagi woke up. She had gone back to Kano's house along with Seiya. She went in the bathroom and looked at herself in the mirror, . "Hello old friend," she said rubbing her face. "Where have you been?"
"Here all along," said a voice bring Usagi out of her trance. It was Seiya who wore one of Kano's long red shirts. "You've been here all along, silly." Seiya said snuggling into Usagi's right shoulder blade as she looked in the mirror with Usagi. Usagi relaxed against Seiya's black hair.
There was knock at the door. "Hai!" Seiya yelled.
"Seiya, it's us," said a voice. Usagi recognized it to be the inners, mostly Ami's voice. "Can we come in?"
"Hai," Seiya replied. The inners walked in and found Usagi and Seiya in the bathroom.
"Oi, minna," Usagi said not making eye contact with any of her friends. "N-nani do you want?"
"We were wondering if we could all go out to lunch today," Minako said. "We know we've seen you as Kano, but we haven't seen you as your real self. Yaten and Taiki are coming along too."
"Is Setsuna-san still mad at me?" Usagi asked her friends who looked confused. "For not wanting to marry Mamoru-san?"
"No," Makoto said relieving Usagi of her tension. "She just told us yesterday the future is settled! You and Seiya are going to get married and Chibi-usa will be born."
"Who's Chibi-usa?" Seiya asked Usagi curiously. Usagi cleared her throat.
"She was originally Mamoru-san's child and mine," Usagi said blushing a magenta color. "Demo, I guess she's our child now. I don't know how that's going to work though." Seiya pulled her into a kiss.
"You know, we're still here," Makoto said winking at Usagi. "So, are you guys coming to lunch later? It's a noon, right on 12. At Crown's Parlor!"
"Hai," Usagi said. The inners smiled and hugged their pink pajamed bunny and left. Seiya and Usagi smiled at each other. Usagi hugged Seiya. "Arigato, Seiya."
"For what, Odango?" Seiya asked confused stroking the bangs back from Usagi's face, she discovered tears had been streaming down Usagi's face. She could also see they were tears of joy, Seiya whipped them away.
"For being there with me through all of this," Usagi finally said "For a long time before you came, I felt alone. I felt isolated for people not knowing the real me. But then you came along and changed it."
"Ashiteru, Odango," Seiya said closing her eyes and rubbing Usagi's back. "I'd do anything for you and you know it, ne?"
"Of course," Usagi said giving Seiya a kiss. With the kiss, Usagi lead Seiya into the bedroom and the two were lying on the bed together. Seiya was on top and Usagi on the bottom.
"Odango," Seiya said after the kiss was broken. "I love you so much." Seiya removed the bunny's pink pj's leaving her in a panties and a bra. Usagi removed Seiya's red shirt and the two pressed their foreheads together. "You are a piece of work, Odango." Seiya told Usagi.
Usagi smiled at Seiya and kissed her on the lips. The two had left their pajama's on the bed and snuggled under the blankets. Seiya got up after and restrained Usagi from moving by her hips. Seiya brought her hands up to Usagi's face and rubbed her cheeks. "My perfect angel," Seiya said.
Usagi did the same. "My perfect Starlight," Usagi said. "And my perfect Seiya." Seiya kissed Usagi's cheek and fell back onto the bed. Usagi snuggling into Seiya's chest as Seiya rubbed her head with those two ridiculous odangos on her head. Usagi took out Seiya's traditional ponytail and her hair fell all over the bed. "You have gorgeous hair, Seiya."
"Arigato, Odango," Seiya said smiling. Seiya rubbed her fingers up her Odango's stomach and Usagi laughed. "Eh? Are you ticklish?"
"No," Usagi lied. Seiya saw through her little lie and tickled her on the stomach. "Seiya, stop please! Seiya!" she giggled loudly. "I can't breathe, stop!" Seiya didn't stop, Usagi rose her arms while being tickled and did the same to Seiya's stomach.
"Stop, Odango," Seiya said tears pooling over her eyes from the laughter. "Okay! Uncle! Uncle!" The two fell on the ground, Seiya was on top of Usagi and Seiya legs were in between Usagi's. "You win, Odango." Seiya said rubbing Usagi's chest.
The two rolled on the floor like idiots kissing each other.
"So, Seiya is the future queen along with Usagi-san?" Taiki asked the inners. They had gone over to see the other two lights.
"Hai," Makoto said. "It is said that Usagi-chan was to marry Mamoru-san demo, since he cheated on her it seems as if your leader is our other queen."
"My question is," Yaten started to take a sip of her tea, "the queen of what?"
The inners looked at each other. They all just realized they had never told the Starlights about Crystal Tokyo or the Silver Millennium. Makoto started telling the lights from the Silver Mellennium all the way up to Chibi-usa, the Black Moon clan who tried to take the little bunny and up to the present.
"We don't know now what Crystal Tokyo will be like," Rei said, "now with Seiya as a queen."
"Probably driven directly into the ground," Taiki looked at Yaten who just laughed. "Nee, nee, I'm joking."
"Whatever," Rei mumbled under her breath. "Does your Princess know Seiya is going to be a queen of Crystal Tokyo along with Usagi?" Yaten and Taiki shook their heads.
"No, we'll tell her though," Taiki said, "diajoubu. She'll know in time. She'll come and see Seiya and Usagi."
"You two know that Seiya and Usagi are going to a child, ne?" Minako asked the two lights who looked at her wide eyed. "Well, she'll be Chibi-usa but a different one from the little girl we known."
"How is it possible for them to have a child?" Yaten asked curiously, "they're both girls." Taiki laughed that Yaten just stated the obvious about them being girls. Yaten shot her taller teammate a nasty look.
"Well," Ami said. "Technically speaking, since you three could be both genders Seiya could became a man and well, poof Chibi-usa!" Taiki and Yaten had never thought about that. It was all senshi that came from Kimouku had the ability to switch genders, not many used it though.
"I see," Taiki replied, which was all the came out of her mouth. "How old is the Chibi-usa you knew?"
"The last time we saw her she was probably nine," Ami said. "So now she'd be around fourteen."
"Demo, won't her memories be erased if Seiya is her new mom?" Yaten asked Ami. Ami shook her head. "How is that possible?"
"Her mental state will stay the same, I guess. That's what Setsuna told me anyway and that her body will only change." Ami told Taiki and Yaten. "She'll remember us, but she doesn't know you three."
Taiki then looked at her wrist watch to see what time it was. "It's eleven thirty, we should get going if we want to meet Seiya and Usagi at the Parlor." The other girls nodded and headed out the door.

"Finally," Michiru said looking at her Neptune mirror that glistened in the sunshine in the park. Haruka and Michiru came to the park for such a nice spring day, they were sitting on a black bench underneath some trees. Birds were chirping and child ran around the park playing. "My mirror is crystal clear."
"Hai, you're right Michi," Haruka said looking into the mirror with her. "Sailor Dark is the nice little girl she was and is living on now with her mother." Michiru and Haruka looked up at the sky. "I hope she can treat this second chance with lots of respect."
"And live it to the fullest?" Michiru asked her lover as Haruka nodded. Suddenly, two familiar faces appeared. It was Seiya and Usagi. Seiya had on black short shorts, blue sandals and a gray, baggy shirt while Usagi had on a pair of blue high heels and a black skirt along with a white tank top.
"Oi, Haraku-san, Michiru-san," Usagi said being her bubbly self as usual. "O genki desu?" Seiya had her arm wrapped around Usagi's waist so both of their waists were touching.
"Good, Koneko-chan," Haraku said getting up and hugging the smaller senshi. "Why are you two passing through here. I thought you two were going to lunch with the others?" Usagi released from the hug.
"We are," Usagi told Haruka. "We're taking this as a shortcut, if we went the normal way it would be too long and I'd be tired." Seiya laughed at the little bunny and kissed her cheek.
"Odango insisted on walking through the park," Seiya then chirped in. "And I listen to whatever my Odango wants."
"Good, you'd better," Haruka said jokingly now. "Or else." Seiya giggled and the two started to walk off. Haruka joined Michiru back on the bench.
"You and Seiya seem to be friends now, ne?" Michiru asked Haruka. "You don't want to kill her anymore?" Haruka laughed and shook her head.
"Nope," admitted the sandy blond. "As long as she treats Koneko-chan with respect, it's fine." Michiru giggled. "Nani?"
"Usagi will always be your little koneko, won't she?" Michiru said. "Does she have a special place in your heart?" Michiru joked.
"Everyone has a different place in my heart," Haruka said. "Koneko-chan is my princess, and I protect her. You are my lover, and will be for as long as I live."

"They're late," Rei said checking her watch. Ami patted Rei on the back.
"Mou, Rei-chan," Ami said. "Only by a ten minutes. Maybe they ran into someone or something." Suddenly, the doors opened to the Crown Parlor revealing Seiya and Usagi. "Speak of the devils."
"Oi, guys," Seiya said as her and Usagi took a seat.
"Finally!" Rei said putting her hands up high in the air. "What took you two so long?" Seiya and Usagi blushed.
"I think I know," Yaten said with a giggle. Seiya slapped her. "Damn you!"
The girls ordered what they wanted to eat and soon lunch was finished and they talked. Usagi was relaxing on Seiya's shoulder blade.
"So, Usagi-chan," Minako said making the blond senshi open her eyes. "Are you and Seiya getting married?" Seiya and Usagi looked at each other and their faces turned red. Yaten reached over and placed her hand on Minako's.
"Minako," Yaten said. "Don't ask them that, it's private. They'll tell us that eventually though, right Seiya?" Yaten shot Seiya a little smirk for once in her life.
"Usako?" said a voice. Everyone turned and saw Mamoru. He was there with the bitch, Tori. "Where have you been?"
"None of your business," Usagi said cuddling up to Seiya more. "Go off your with girlfriend. I'm with mine right now and don't want you here."
Mamoru huffed at his ex-girlfriend. "Come on, Usako. Can't we at least be friends?" Usagi laughed got up and poked Mamoru in the chest.
"I wouldn't be your girlfriend or friend!" Usagi said angrily. "Why would I be a friend to someone who cheated on me with this skank?"
"I'm a skank?" Tori asked Usagi. "I'm not the one who has a girlfriend, at least I'm normal." Tori slapped Usagi across the face who screamed; everyone at the table gasped, including some of other people in the restaurant.
Seiya got up and slapped the women. "You are probably the most closed minded person ever," Seiya told Tori. "Thinking only a man and women can be together, what did you parents teach you?" Tori cried and Mamoru walked away.
"I'm not glad your back, Usagi," Mamoru said with a frown that could haunt anyone's nightmares. "Good-bye, I hope you have a nice life. Come on, Tori-chan."
Seiya looked at Usagi's cheek after Mamoru was gone. "Odango, are you okay?" Seiya looked at the cheek, it had turned a little red. "Come on, let's go to bathroom and clean it up." Seiya and Usagi walked off to the bathroom.
"What a bitch," Makoto said once Mamoru, Tori, Seiya and Usagi were gone. The others nodded in agreement.
"Here, Odango," Seiya said giving Usagi some wet paper towel. "Hold this to your face." Usagi put it on her cheek and whimpered.
"Demo Seiya," she said as tears welled up in her eyes. "It hurts." Seiya grabbed her hand and Usagi squeezed it tightly, almost cutting off Seiya's circulation. Soon, Usagi began to come down and Seiya dabbed away the bunny's tears.
"Is she okay?" Ami asked entering the bathroom with Taiki, Makoto and Minako.
"I'm okay," Usagi responded. "That skank can slap hard though." Ami took a look at Usagi's cheek, it was very red and cold from the water but other than that it was okay.
"She's okay, ne?" Taiki asked Ami. Ami nodded. The other sighed and went back to their lunch.

Later that night, Seiya and Usagi had gone out and had dinner. Seiya and Usagi were now snuggling on the couch. Usagi was lying on Seiya's chest and Seiya was rubbing circles on her back. "Odango," Seiya whispered. "Did you have funny being yourself with your friends?"
"Hai," Usagi whispered. "So, are you ready?" Seiya looked at Usagi confused. "For our future? You'll have a daughter and be a queen. Not too much pressure?"
"No, as long as I'm with you I'm good," Seiya admitted. The two snuggled there on the couch. "I'd rule with you anywhere." Suddenly, Seiya fainted on the couch.
"Seiya, wake up!" Usagi yelled.
-WITHIN THE DEPTHS OF SEIYA'S MIND-
"Fighter," whispered a voice. Seiya was on a red floor and looked up to see her princess.
"Princess, where are we?" Seiya asked her princess confused, she was in the ruby red gown she had been in just a day earlier.
"In your mind," her princess told her Starlight. "I see you're happy with Usagi and I am allowing you, Taiki and Yaten to live on Earth. I hope you will come in visit me."
"Princess, oh," Seiya said getting off the floor and hugging her princess. "Arigato, can the earth senshi come as well?" The princess smiled at her Starlight.
"Of course," she said. "They're your friends, they can come by with you anytime. I hope you live in peace in the future. Now you must awake." Seiya's eyes shot open and she saw Usagi trying to get her up.
"I'm okay, Odango," Seiya said. "Just I-" Usagi cut her off.
"What happened?" Usagi asked concerned. Seiya stroked her cheek, she couldn't lie to her future wife and her present girlfriend.
"My princess says I can live here, with you," Seiya said crying a little. "Gomen about crying, I'm just happy I can live here in peace with you now."
"Arigato, fireball princess," Usagi said taking both of Seiya's hands into her own. "Arigato." Seiya hugged her Odango with all her strength.
"Yaten," Taiki said coming out of her room to find Yaten on the couch reading a magazine. "Did you just get a visit from the princess?" Yaten nodded.
"Hai, saying we can live here on Earth now?" Yaten asked. "I suppose it's because Seiya's going to be queen here one day and we must follow our leader."
"So, I guess it does," Taiki said sitting in a chair across from her. "Does that mean you're going to marry Minako-san?" Yaten's head shot up from the magazine.
"Nani?"
"It was a joke." Taiki told her. "Not." She muttered under her breath.
