Author's Note

Okay, so a few things to clear up..

Seiya Kou in this story is a man. This will clear up in the story, he is a man. He does not become a girl, even as a senshi. I like Seiya better this way. :)

"Mamo-chan?" Asked a pouty faced pigtailed girl as she hugged her boyfriend.

"Usako?" Two deep blue eyes stared at the round faced girl looking up at him. Usagi stared at him for a moment. "Do you love me?" she asked, standing up straighter to get closer to his height.

"Yes." He said simply, nodding his head and smiling. At hearing this, Usagi grabbed hold of his arm to hug it. "Like how?" She pouted.

"Why so suddenly?" Mamoru asked, holding back a grin. Usagi nuzzled her head into his arm. "Please? Like how?" she asked again.

"Let's see.." Mamoru said, giving in and closing his eyes to think. When he opened them, his eyes seemed deeper as he stared at her intently. "It feels wonderful to be with you," he whispered deeply. The young girl smiled happily, the pout leaving her face. She let go of her arm and leaned up to him, as he placed his hands on her shoulders. As the couple's lips were meeting, four shooting stars soared across the sky over their head.

Four shooting stars were racing across the galaxy, thousands of light years away from their home. One was centered by the other three, as they advanced closer and closer to their destination with each second. Star Fighter stared straight ahead as a single tear slid down his face. "I'll never forget you, Odango," he thought to himself, as he grew farther and farther away from earth. He didn't look at the senshi beside him, he just stared ahead as they flew further into darkness, as thousands of stars blurred past them.

"Eh?" Star Maker shouted, gaining the attention of the three travelers beside him. Everyone snapped their glances up, to see in the distance what had made Maker start. "A black hole?" Healer shouted, stopping in his tracks. The other three stopped immediately with him. Maker put his finger to his chin, concern gathering on his face. "This isn't good. It's right in our path," He said, studying it.

"Eh, let's just go around it!" Fighter said cheerfully, pointing his thumb at it. Maker shook his head. "We can't do that, the gravitational pull would suck us into it.." he muttered under his breath. Healer shrugged, "We can always make a detour," he said cooly, pointing to his left. "We can go out there to a safe distance," he pointed in front of him "head this way to a safe distance, and then coarse back on track." Maker stared at Healer as he said this. "Healer, that was a great choice of words.." he commented.

Fighter clapped a hand on Maker's shoulder. "Anyway, it sounds like a plan, right?" He said, grinning. The four nodded at each other, and began to soar towards their new path. "What?" Maker suddenly yelled, feeling pressure pulling him. Fighter could feel it too, somehow they had crossed into the black hole's pull, and were being sucked in. Kakyuu screamed as Fighter and Maker grabbed her hands. Fighter closed his eyes, stuggling to rip them free of the gravitational pull, but it was no use. "Odango," Fighter thought to himself, as he closed his eyes.

Usagi smiled to herself, brushing her long, golden locks. She giggled at herself in the mirror giddily, blushing as she cupped a hand to her cheek. "Oh, Mamo-chan.." she thought out loud. "I'm so happy that you're finally alright,"

She turned around, looking at her empty bed. An image of a red-headed toddler crossed her mind, Usagi had grown used to climbing into bed with her to sleep. "I really will miss Chibichibi-chan, though.." Usagi said sadly, as she climbed into bed, closing her eyes. "At least I know she's alright.."

Suddenly, Usagi felt a jolt of electricity run though her body. She jerked upright, staring around the room. Her heart was beating rapidly, as her wide eyes studied her surroundings. Her mind began to race. Images of Seiya began to slur into her head. She climbed out of bed, and walked to her window. "What is this uneasy feeling?" She asked, staring up at the night sky.

A weird sensation overtook Fighter, as he lost his grip on Kakyuu's hand. He covered his face, as his skin tingled. Deep blackness surrounded the four, with waves of purple in the thin air. Fighter felt his transformation lose effect, as his body jerked. "Ah!" Healer groaned, his eyes widening. Seiya trembled as he reached for Kakyuu, who has been pulled away from the three. They drifted further and further from each other, each overwhelmed with the sensation they were feeling.

Seiya cried out, suddenly feeling a warmth at his feet. He looked down, spotting blue light engulfing him from below.

"What?" Taiki cried, wind blowing against them as the blue overtook them further and further.

Once they were completely surrounded by the light blue, they were being pulled. Pulled down, they began to race. Kakyuu screamed, as Seiya reached for her hand, but she was gone. "PRINCESS!" He cried, as he watched her fall below him. He realized that Taiki and Yaten weren't with him anymore either. He stared down below him. Something seemed familiar about this area.

Seiya closed his eyes, and then it was over. With an extremely loud splash, Seiya landed into a large body of water. Seiya gasped in surprise, and began to choke. "Note to Seiya, don't breathe in water," He thought.

Seiya's head popped out from under the water. He looked around. A crowd of people had gathered around the lake, staring at him. He bit his lip, his cheeks turning red. "Ah-" He started, throwing his arm behind his head in nervous laughter.

"Ah, why did we end up back on Earth?" Seiya thought, as he splashed down the street in his sopping wet clothes. "Where are the others?" He was heading towards the apartment that they had stayed in. Seiya poked his hand in his pocket, gripping his key. "Lucky!" He sang, holding it tight.

He saw ahead a girl with long blonde hair, tied back in a red ribbon. He recognized her as Minako and grinned, closing his eyes, getting ready for her excited cries to him. But the cries never came. Seiya's grin dropped, as he looked her over. Minako caught his stare, and grinned flirtatiously. "Do I know you?" She asked. "What happened to your clothes?"

Seiya's jaw dropped. "You- you don't.." He pointed at his chest. "ME?"

Minako stared at him blankly for a moment. Suddenly, she screamed excitedly, hitting him on the head. "OH! Do you want some money! Sorry, sorry, but a pretty girl like me doesn't have any!"

Seiya felt a sweatdrop forming at his forehead. "I'm not a begger.." he muttered. Minako giggled nervously, waving her arms frantically in the air. "I don't have anything! I'm sorry! Perhaps you could ask that guy over there?" She said, pointing to a random stranger. The stranger noticed her gesture, and choked back. He picked up his pace and sped off into the distance.

Seiya sighed deeply, shaking his head. "Okay, bye-bye, then." He said. He just wanted to get to his apartment and find a set of warm clothes.

"Ah," Seiya sighed, pulling a shirt over his head. This feels much better. Seiya had taken a hot shower when he got home. Now that he wasn't wet any longer, he gave himself time to think. He looked around his apartment. It still looked the same. Suddenly, a thought struck Seiya. He could see Usagi again. What was with Minako, though? She really hadn't recognized him?

Suddenly, Seiya heard a click in the door, and looked up to see it creak open. Standing in the doorway was Taiki, covered in mud, and Yaten, with a smashed bird egg in his hair.

Seiya fought back laughter as he threw his towel at them.

"Usagi-chan!" A raven haired girl shouted sternly, placing her hands on her hips. "Rei-chan! Please don't be angry!" Usagi cried, biting her fist as she squealed back her tears. Rei ignored her, and stuck out her tongue. "Why should I be mad? You're the one who is always late, Us-a-gi-chan!"

Usagi began to cry. "But I couldn't get to sleep until late last night!" She wailed. "First I had to finish reading my comic book, and then I had to eat yummy donuts that Mama made for me!" She took a deep breathe. "And then I took a nice warm bath, I couldn't get to sleep until that! And then I had to brush my hair! I'll get tangles if I don't do that! But then I couldn't sleep because I was still hungry and Mama made me some shortcake! And then I was late to class this morning! And Haruna-san made me stay after class and scrub the desks!"

Rei stuck her tongue out again. "U-sa-gi!" She said sternly. "Prioritize!"

Usagi wiped at her watery eyes. "Yes." She nodded.

"There, there. Usagi-chan." A brunette said, patting the pigtailed girl on the back. "We'll get some snacks at Crown, and then we'll go to Rei-chan's. It'll be okay."

Usagi rubbed her growling stomach. "I want shortcake!" She giggled happily, forgetting about the lecture she had just received. The four inner senshi made their way towards crown, laughing with one another as they told stories about the day. Usagi saw Crown up ahead. "Hey, we're here!" She smiled happily. "Cake! And milkshakes!" She squealed, running ahead of her laughing friends. "I want to see Motoki and get sympathy!"

As Usagi made her way to the sliding doors, though, she flinched as she saw a large figure in front of her. It was too late to stop running though, so she slammed into the tall body, falling backwards. "Ouchies!" She cried. She heard her friends calling her, expressing concern.

"Watch where you're going!" A deep voice growled. A man stood up off the ground and dusted himself off. Usagi-chan noticed her knee was scraped. "You!" She cried. "My knee! You hurt my knee!"

Mamoru shrugged, pushing past her. "It's your own fault. Learn to walk, odango atama."

"MY NAME IS NOT ODANGO!" Usagi screamed after him, fuming. Minako reached Usagi, putting a hand on her shoulder. "That guy again!" She said, smiling at Usagi. Usagi groaned to herself. "He's so rude!" She bit her lip. "I can't believe he's such good friends with Motoki!"
