Osamu watched as Sailor Mars leapt from rooftop to rooftop. Something compelled him to follow her. He leapt after her silently following her to a shrine. Leaping to it's roof he silently watched as she detransformed into a raven haired shrine priestess.
He looked at her and to his surprise he could feel a pang in his chest where his heart used to be. ? He touched his chest over his heart in confusion. "What the heck is going on?" he muttered aloud.
"It's love if I ever seen it Osamu." a voice told him a moment later Ayame appeared beside him in cherry blossoms.
"I can't fall in love with her!" he objected "She's a sailor that mother's going to destroy! It's just so wrong!"
"So?" Ayame asked. "Hearts don't listen to logic Osamu. It never has and never will."
"Sister? What do you see in my future?" he asked Ayame quietly.
Looking into the distance she answered…
It had been months since Prince Ichiro had "died". Monsters have been attacking them in different ways, in their dreams, physically, in hordes, solo, catching one without the others, honestly the only thing that was the same was that they weren't trying to kill them… just to catch them.
The group walked to the shrine to find Raye's grandfather sweeping the steps.
"Grandpa, where's Raye?" Serena asked.
"Ah Serena… she's getting ready for a date." he told her.
"Thank you Grandpa." Serena told him as they walked towards Raye's room. Opening they found cloths thrown around the room.
"Wow. It looks like a hurricane went through here." Lita commented when they found Raye still trying to find something to wear.
"What's going on Raye?" Mina asked.
"I can't find anything to wear for my date tonight." Raye told her throwing a pink skirt over her shoulder. "We've been dating for two months now and I want to wear something special!"
"We can so fix this Raye don't worry." Mina told her with a glint in her eyes.
"Eh?"
Raye looked into the mirror and found a more beautiful form of herself. Her normally dark hair glistened in the light while her sundress brought out her eyes.
The doorbell rang causing her to jump out of her trance.
"Raye! It's for you?!" Serena's voice rang through the house.
Stepping out of her room Raye found him smiling nervously at Serena's antics. Catching sight of Raye he stood there speechless. Mutely he handed her a bouquet of white lilies.
Blushing Raye accepted the bouquet and put it into a vase.
"Are you going to introduce us?" Mina asked Raye when she returned.
"Guys this is Osamu… Osamu this is Serena, Ami, Mina, and Lita."
"Nice to meet you." he told them. "Are you ready Raven?" he asked.
"Raven?!" they exclaimed.
"Yeah I'm ready." she told him.
"Have fun you two." Lita smiled as they walked down the steps.
They could hear a rattling. Looking over they found a girl with long black hair a few years older than them praying. Her words softly came to them "Please let this last."
Osamu and Raye ate their food in silence until Raye asked "Do you have any family?" She waited till he was done coughing and waited for his answer.
"Why do you ask Raven?" he asked her.
"Well you've met my family and friends and I know next to nothing about you." she told him.
"True…" sighing he took out a picture and showed it to her. There were about fourteen children in a grassy field. "This was taken ten years ago. These are all my siblings and me before we started dying."
"They died? I'm so sorry." Raye told him.
He began to pointed out eleven children "They died because of killers." he told her.
Raye's eyes opened in horror "Have they caught the culprits?" she asked.
"Yes. But…" his eyes flashed dangerously causing Raye to silently gulp nervously "… I'll never forgive them for ending the lives of my younger brothers and sisters."
"I can't blame you."
He gave her a small smile. "Lets not think about something this sad… let's talk about something else okay?"
"Okay…"
"We shouldn't be doing this!" Ami told them as they watched Raye and her date from a few booths over.
"You mean you want to miss them kissing?" Mina asked.
"He's getting closer!" Lita hissed at them.
"Eep!" they looked over just to see Osamu pulling away from her.
"Awww." Mina complained as she sank into her seat.
"They're leaving!" Lita told them. Paying the waiter they quietly followed the pair as they went to the park.
Raye and Osamu sat next to each other watching the sunset. And a group of people watched them from a nearby bush.
"Are they kissing yet?" Mina asked.
"No, not yet." Lita told her. "… Wait!" They all peered out to see the two of them getting closer, and closer.
"How cute, a couple together watching the sunset." a voice broke the silence. Looking around Osamu and Raye found a ten year old in a suit of armor like Endemion's floating above the lake.
It took all they had not to laugh at the sight or say how cute he looked.
Used to the look he proudly declared "I am Prince Akihiko of the Empire." Bringing out some toys out of his cape he threw them, as they came closer they grew bigger until they were the size of cars.
"RAVEN!" Osamu threw himself infront of Raye taking all the hits for her. Grabbing her arm he pushed her away from the boy "Get out of here! I'll hold him off as long as I can!" He grunted as another one hit his back.
Nodding she ran behind a tree where she found her friends in the bush next to the tree. Glaring she transformed. MARS CRYSTAL POWER MAKE-UP! Striking her posses she became Sailor Mars. Since everyone transformed with her they jumped into their routine.
"How dare you interrupt a date between two lovers! I'm Sailor Mars! And I will chastise you!" Sailor Mars called out. She let out a small gasp as she saw the toy littered ground, Osamu was half covered with various toys but he was still trying to stand.
"Stay down!" the boy battered him with a giant yo-yo. With a hit to his head Osamu finally laid there motionless
"OSAMU!" Sailor Mars cried out. FLAME SNIPER! As she shot it at the boy she was surprised to see him swat it aside.
"Is that all the Sailor Scouts have?" the boy sneered.
"I can see how you're related to Prince Ichiro." Jupiter told him angrily.
"Why thank you. He's my big brother." the boy answered. After a few minutes of them flinging attacks at him he pouted "This is boring!... MonMon catch them for me!" and with that he disappeared.
"MONMON!" A giant monkey dropped from the sky and tried to smash them with its fists. Oak Evolution! It screeched in pain and started to laugh "That tickled!" it told them in a high pitched voice.
AQUA RAPSODY! Mercury cried out as she froze its fists together. After a moment the ice shattered raining shards down on them.
Glaring at MonMon Mercury furiously typed on her computer searching for a weakness of any kind. "Aim for the palm!" she yelled to the others when she found it.
PLANET ATTACK! they cried as they shot their power at MonMon. SILVER MOON CRYSTAL POWER KISS! Sailor Moon finished it off.
"Play with me!" it cried before it disappeared.
Raye rushed over to Osamu crying out his name. Slowly opening his eyes he asked "Are you okay Raven?"
"Yes Osamu." she answered with tears in her eyes "I found the Sailor
Scouts and told them where the monster was. They took care of it." she told him.
"I'm glad you're okay." he told her.
