This story does take place in the first season. I haven't seen it in ages, sorry if some of the characters are off!

Thank you so much for the favorites and the comments!^-^

"Damn it," Yaten hissed angrily, pressing his back into the wall. Taiki stared out the window of their apartment. "I wonder if our princess is okay," he said, adjusting his glasses. Seiya crossed his arms. "Oi, we can always have another concert. At least we got publicity!" He said nonchalantly, shrugging his shoulders. Yaten gave Seiya a death stare for saying this, but Taiki laughed to himself. "You're right," he said, laughing harder. "Those senshi aren't well trained at all!" Taiki began to laugh even harder. "And I thought they were helpless with Galaxia!" He broke into hard laughter, finding the idea amusing.

"Shut up!" Seiya yelled, pulling his hand into a fist. "They're young! Don't forget that we need to protect Usagi-chan as well as our princess!"

Taiki kept laughing, but tried to stifle it. "You're right," he chuckled. "We need to help protect her... she needs it!" He crackled, breaking into more laughter.

Usagi stared at her reflection in the mirror, brushing through her long golden locks. "Luna?" She asked quietly. "Mrow?" Luna replied, lifting her head from her sleep. Usagi stopped brushing and turned around. "What do you think of Tuxedo Kamen?" She asked, laying her brush down. Luna yawned, and closed her eyes. "I'm not sure what to think of him." Luna said, laying her head back down. This didn't help Usagi at all. "Luna?" she asked again.

"Mrow?"

"What do you think of.. those star-lights that appeared?" Usagi clicked off the light and walked to her window. "Usagi-chan, remember that we can't be so ready to trust." Luna said tiredly, before dosing off again.

Usagi looked up at the sky and nodded.

"JADEITE!"

An average height man with short and curly blonde hair appeared, bowing. "Yes, your majesty?" He said, keeping his eyes to the floor.

"You've been failing me, Jadeite." Queen Beryl said coldly, looking down at her crystal ball. Jadeite took a deep breath, keeping his calm. "It's the Sailor Senshi!" He said, balling his hand into a fist. "If it weren't for them, you would have all the energy you could ask for!"

Queen Beryl didn't look up from her crystal ball. "Well, Jadeite. Get rid of those brats!" She snarled impatiently. Jadeite took a step back. "Yes, your majesty." He said, bowing.

"Take that! And that!" Usagi yelled, steering the car in her race driving game. Minako was sitting right beside her, biting her lip in concentration. Minako stepped on the gas, turning her steering wheel all the way to the right.

"AH! Minako-chan!" Usagi wailed, having been knocked off the road. "No fair!" Minako licked her lips, smiling triumphantly. "Yes!"

"No fair!" Usagi cried again, stepping up from her video game. "I want my quarters back!" She sighed. She realized that her pockets were empty of money. Her stomach began to growl. "Aww, I don't have any money to get a snack!" She whined, shooting Minako a pouty face. Minako's eyes went wide as she waved Usagi back. "Hey, hey! I don't have any money! Usagi-chan!"

Usagi sighed sadly. "I guess I need to go home, then." She pouted to Minako, waving. Minako nodded too. "Me too! Bye, Usagi-chan!"

The two girls went their separate ways as they left Crown. Usagi rubbed her growling stomach sadly. "Ah, it hurts!" She whined, clenching her eyes shut.

"It hurts! It hurts!"

BAM!

Usagi flew on her back. "Wah?" She said, looking around. Sitting across from her sat a man in a red suit, rubbing his head painfully. He looked up, feeling annoyed, until he saw a pair of blonde pigtails. "Odango!" He said, standing up and straightening out his suit. "WHAT?" Usagi yelled, jumping to her feet and standing as tall as she could. "My name is not ODANGO!" She barked. "You're as bad as Mamoru!"

Seiya smiled to himself. "Who?" he asked. Usagi jumped. "He's.. he's.. someone that I don't know very well! And he always calls me Odango-atama! And he makes fun of my grades! And calls me stupid! And says I'm lazy! And calls me other names! And makes fun of me when I tell Motoki that I'm late for school! And he-" Usagi stopped herself. "Did I just make myself look bad?" She asked softly, looking up at the sky as if she were thinking intently.

"No, you're fine, Odango."

Usagi screwed her face at Seiya. "HEY!" she retorted. "Who do you think you are?"

Seiya struck a pose. "Seiya."

Usagi blinked. "Oh."

Seiya stared at Usagi. "She was at the concert last night.." he thought. "You don't know who I am?" He asked. Usagi shook her head. "Girls are always so happy to see me!" He grinned. A sweatdrop formed on Usagi's head. "Don't get a big head!" She said, looking away. Seiya grinned. "Where are you going, odango?" He asked.

"It's not Odango!" Usagi growled. "I'm going home for a snack!" She said, rubbing her growling stomach. "Oh! A snack! Thank you!" Seiya smiled.

"Hey! You aren't invited!" Usagi said, putting her hands on her hips. Seiya rubbed his hand through his hair. "Don't be mean."

Usagi glared at Seiya. "I am not mean!" She said. Seiya patted Usagi on the head. "Okay, okay. See ya, Odango!" Seiya waved as he started to walk off.

Usagi watched him walk. "The nerve of some people!" She said to herself. "I think my hairstyle is cute!"

The next day, the girls met at Rei's temple. They were discussing the attack that had happened at the Three Lights' concert.

Ami put a finger to her chin thoughtfully. "Sailor Star Lights.. but.. they were men?"

Minako and Usagi nodded at the same time. "Not only men!" Minako announced, her mouth full of noodles that she had been slurping. "But cute men!"

"No fair!" Makoto groaned. "I wish I had been there!"

"Come on, girls!" Ami said. "Their appearance isn't the point! I didn't think there was such a thing as a male senshi!"

Luna backed Ami up on this. "Neither did I!" She said. "I mean, Tuxedo Kamen isn't a girl, but he isn't a real senshi either! These men were senshis!"

Rei looked into her lap, pushing a strand of hair behind her ear. "This worries me, guys. Luna didn't even know about this." She said. Usagi smiled. "But they helped us! It really was an attack, too!" she said cheerfully. Ami, Rei, and Luna looked at Usagi. "Usagi-chan!" They said sternly at the same time. "We can't be so ready to trust!"

Usagi's smile dropped. "Y-yes!" she said, nodding reluctantly.

"Anyway," said Luna, "We've got to be more serious as senshi. There have been too many close calls where Tuxedo Kamen has had to save us. And we can't always rely on him."

Usagi picked her head up. "But! He helps us!" she defended.

"Usagi-chan!" Luna said. Usagi put her head back down. "Yes." she said softly.

Rei stuck her tongue out at Usagi. "Anyway, we're not the ones that need to be more serious! It's all you, Usagi-chan!" Usagi's jaw dropped. "Eh?" She yelled, tears welling in her eyes. "That's not fair, Rei-chan!" Minako laughed and poked at Usagi. "I think you like being saved," Minako cooed. Usagi turned to Minako. "Mina-chan!" She wailed. "Not you, too!" Tears began to stream down Usagi's face. "I try my best!" She sniffled. Suddenly she exploded in tears, her head pointed at the ceiling as he bawled. Makoto patted Usagi on the back. "There, there! Usagi-chan! We all need practice!" She said, a sweatdrop at her forehead. Usagi continued wailing. "Usagi, please!" Ami begged. "We don't like seeing you cry!"

"Ah! Usagi-chan! I almost forgot!" Makoto said brightly. Usagi stopped crying. "What?" she asked quietly. Makoto pulled a picnic basket out from under the table they were sitting at. "I brought shortcake for everyone!" she said, opening it. Usagi giggle excitedly. "Makoto-chan! You're amazing!"

Taiki and Yaten watched as Seiya danced around the store, selecting a pair of sunglasses.

"Seiya really seems.." Yaten started, at a loss of words. He closed his eyes. Taiki decided to give it a try. "Seiya seems.." he paused, thinking over what he would say.

Seiya strolled over the the two, a pair of sunglasses covering his eyes. "Now I look good!" He smiled. Yaten gave Seiya a thumbs up. "Cool." he said, uninterested.

"Alright!" Seiya laughed, slapping Yaten on the back. Yaten shot Taiki a look that said How do I react to that? Taiki smiled at Yaten, offering no help. "It's good Seiya's so happy," he commented outloud. Seiya grinned at Taiki. "Yes. I have no reason not to be happy!" he said, giving Taiki a thumbs up.

Yaten looked at Seiya like he was irritated. "What about our princess?" he asked. "We've lost her again.."

Seiya just grinned at Yaten. "I know we'll find her soon. Once we can perform an actual concert, we'll find her!" Yaten nodded.

"You're right," Taiki said. "We can't lose hope."
