"Hika, this is Rei, Minako, Ami, Makoto, Haruka, Michiru, Setsuna, and..." Usagi paused as she looked at Mamoru, then the floor, "my current boyfriend: Chiba Mamoru."

Hikaru stared about Mamoru for a second, then leaned over to Usagi whisper in Usagi's ear, "Wait, so that's like your boyfriend now, like right now."

Usagi nodded oh so slowly. Hikaru started giggling and snickering but was obviously trying to hide it. Looking at him, unhappily, Usagi hit him on the head.

"It's not funny," Usagi whispered, "It probably wasn't the brightest thing for you to kiss me."

As Hikaru stopped laughing and started rubbing his head, Usagi faced her friends once again.

"Umm, hehe." She said, not really sure what to say.

"I don't get it. If your her ex-boyfriend," Ami said while point one slim finger at Hikaru, "then why do you still kiss her?"

"Ummm...yea, about that. We never actually 'broke up'." Hikaru said with two fingers on each hand help up.

"What do ya mean?" Makoto asked.

"Well, I only moved back to America. Our relationship never had any problems at all." Hikaru explained.

"When did you move?" Setsuna asked not remember that section of time but then she had been preoccupied a lot in the past century.

"About a month before I met Luna." Usagi said as she thought about her faithful cat who at the moment was probably enjoying her nap time at home.

"Luna...Luna." Hikaru said trying to remember the name, "Isn't that your cat. The one that gave you your Sailor powers?"

Everyone was shocked to hear that Hikaru, a stranger, knew about their powers.

Haruka became very angry. "Usagi-baka! You told him?"

"Ummm..yea. He knows, just about everything. hehehe."

"Everything!" The whole group said at once.

"Well, yea. Even though we're not girlfriend and boyfriend, we're best friends. There isn't a thing about Usagi I don't know. I probably know more than you." He said motioning towards Mamoru.

Usagi nudged him and gave him a look that clearly said oh-that's-so-cruel.

Mamoru was now getting ticked at this guy. "Who does he think he is? Touching my girl, saying he's better than me. If he keeps this up I'm gonna snap his neck in two." Mamoru thought.

"Yes, well now Usagi is my girlfriend. Do you hear that? My! So keep off." Mamoru said defensively.

"Mamo-chan, you don't have to be so mean. Hika was just kidding around. Why don't we all cool off. By the way Hika, which hotel are you staying at?"

"Oh well. I was going to stay at the Mandarin Oriental,it's an insane price but I heard it's good(AN: never actually stayed there, just looked up good hotels in Japan), but I called you ahead of time to tell you I was coming. Your dad picked up instead, and insisted I stay with you guys. Your dad seems to really like me."

"Wow. This sucks. Usagi dad hates me but loves him. This is bad, this is bad. I need to get rid of this guy and fast." Mamoru thought.

Setsuna thought similarly, "This could turn out so terribly. If Usagi falls in love with this guy and chooses him over Mamoru then it could alter the future. Oh no!"

Usagi could have cared less. "Have you dropped your stuff off at my house yet?"

"No. It's still in the car I rented. I couldn't wait to see you."

"You rented another car. We have cabs here in Tokyo, remember? Can you ever travel without spending all of your money?"

Hikaru just laughed but Mamoru felt so threatened. "This guy is rich too. How can I compete with this guy?"

"Why don't we head back to my house so you can drop your stuff of and then we can go to a cafe to catch up."

With that they both headed off and a stunned group of people following behind. When they got down to the street, there parked in front of the arcade was a huge black car, obviously a thousand times more expensive than Mamoru's. More was becoming more and more unsure of himself as he watched them drive away. Later, on his way home, Mamoru saw the two shopping in the Harujuku district(famous place to shop in Tokyo). Mamoru thought back to all the times he had gone shopping with Usagi and he realized he might not have been that much fun hanging with her. He was always embarrassed. But this guy evidently loved hanging out with her. He was joking around, trying on girl caps or a stylish jacket.

When Mamoru finally got home he couldn't stop pacing back and forth. He felt like he needed to prove to Usagi that he was better than this no good snob of a boy Hikaru.

"How can I beat this guy? What has he got that I don't have?" Mamoru kept thinking over and over in his head while continually think about the car, the fantastic entrance, and his great public display of affection. After tirelessly pondering over this for 2 hours Mamoru finally gave and walked to his closet to get clothes for bed. It wasn't until he looked into his closet did he remember his slick black tuxedo. It finally came to him, the one thing no man, not even Hikaru could take away from him. At that exact moment Mamoru's phone rang, and it couldn't have been a better time.

"Mamoru? Mamoru? Is that you? We need your help. We're at the park near Usagi's house. It's truly strong and Usagi might not be able to hold it off for long. HURRY UP!" Ami informed Mamoru.

Mamoru smiled as he heard the news. He changed quickly and rode his bike through the night to reach the small park where a huge monster was attacking 5 superheros in short skirts. The monster was a huge thick gray dog and every time it took a breath it grew even bigger. When it exhaled a thick black smoke came out that could almost make you pass out. It smelled filthy and even all the surrounding plants died.

For his own surprising entrance he threw a rose which missed the monster by only that much. He was about to start on one of the long speeches about how he, Tuxedo Kamen, would fight evil. But before he could evens start, Usagi screamed at him, "What took you so long? I'm practically dying here!"

Mamoru thought she would have loved his entrance but evidently not. He felt sad that he hadn't impressed her that he didn't even noticed the great monster take a swipe at her. Usagi was flung at 50 miles per hour hitting a tree. You could almost hear the bones that almost broke.

"SAILOR MOON!" Mamoru screamed in shock.

The monster took another deep breath and almost grew twice its original size. It picked Sailor Moon and held Sailor Moon above its mouth. It opened wide preparing to eat her, while also choking him at the same time.

"SAILOR MOON!"

BANG!

Mamoru looked to where the bang came from. It was Hikaru. His face was so serious and determined as he stared straight at the monster, his eyes unmoving. It looked as if he was almost evil. In his hand he held a slim silver gun, that looked so deadly he could almost feel the cold billowing off the gun.

Mamoru looked back at the monster. It was bleed from where the bullet had hit. Straight between the eyes, not an inch off. As the monster released Usagi, before Mamoru could even move, Hikaru had run over the Usagi and caught her.

"Thanks." Usagi said between coughs, "You haven't lost your touch."

Mamoru was now enraged. He had lost again to this guy. Evidently, Mamoru couldn't beat Hikaru in strength, but maybe he could be more romantic. As he watch Hikaru hold his girl in his arms, and planned a romantic evening with Usagi that she would never forget. Mamoru was gonna win this war, no matter what.
