Usagi tear up a bit on a sleeve to a shirt that was in the closet. She heard the door open then heard typing on a keyboard. She waited a while till it stopped and she heard footsteps then a door close. She peeked her head out and seen the room was empty. She walked over to a window and peeked out it. Then she heard a door creak, turned around, and seen Tokugawa with surprised eyes and his mouth wide open. She threw the shirt in his face and ran out the room till /Kuro Shinzō grabbed her and held her against her will and she struggled to break free.
"Let me go!" She yelled.
"I don't think I will your highness. It's been a long time." Kuro Shinzō said.
"Don't hurt her!" Tokugawa said. "Just make sure she doesn't escape.
"I doubt she'd escape without her precious prince."
Usagi gasped then felt tears down her cheek. "Mamo-Chan!"
"Is this 'Mamo-Chan' truly the prince Endymion?" Tokugawa asked.
"Mamoru to be correct and yes he is. And if you ever want to see him alive again, you'll do what we wish. Tokugawa!" Kuro Shinzō said.
Tokugawa gave Usagi a certain look then her eyes widened and thought the worst. She then cracked and started jumping and her feet went in the air.
"NO! NO! LET GO OF ME! LET US GO! PLEASE!"
"And what is that?"
"Tomorrow…everything is all set up…tomorrow we'll…be…married." Tokugawa said partially shy.
"No…" She said crying.
"You will…for your prince." Kuro Shinzō said then laughed evilly. Then Usagi was knocked out.
She woke up in a room with her bathing suit still on but a change of clothes at the end of her bed. She immediately put the on feeling more covered. She looked out the window and seen the moon.
"Wow, I've been out of it for a while." She said to herself. She looked at her surroundings and seen light green walls and in front of her a closet with a wedding dress in it. "Where am I?"
"You're in the bosses' house in one of the rooms." Tokugawa said walking in.
"You! Keep away from me! Don't come closer!" She said cowering in fear.
"Don't worry! I'm not about to hurt you. I promise you will not be harmed." He said. Kuro Shinzō appeared by the door listening to the conversation. "You will do as I say, or your precious prince will be executed."
"What have you done with him?"
"Oh nothing…yet. If you do not want him to receive a most atrocious death then you will follow these instuctions. Tomorrow everything is set. Breakfast will be delivered to you and once you finish, you will come down dressed in this wedding dressed by ten and out front a car will be waiting for you. Get in the car and it will take you to a church. You will be sure to walk down the aisle to the alter where I will be waiting. And there…that will be when we make our wedding vows and you will swear yourself entirely to me!" He said in such fierce as he finished what he was demanding.
"No I won't!"
"Oh yes you will! Because if you don't, your boyfriend will not only face a fate worse than death, but we will then through his suffering, decaying body into a box filled with potassium and through him in the lake. (look up what happens when potassium meets water)" Kuro Shinzō said. Usagi looked away and cried as the two laughed.
"Here, I leave you pajamas so you may look…less vulnerable." Tokugawa chuckled then they both exited the room.
"Finally, at long last, after waiting a thousand years she will finally be mine." Tokugawa said.
"Be careful Tokugawa." Kuro Shinzō said.
"What?" He turned around upset at his words.
"The other scouts are still out there and they are very powerful. There's no doubt that they could possibly already be here. They are extremely tricky and I cannot tell where they might be but know they are out there…somewhere. Tomorrow I will have guards stand watch for they might try to attack."
Later that night after Usagi was fed dinner and after she changed, she laid uneasy in the bed that was given to her. She looked up at the moon with red eyes from all the tears shed from earlier.
"Usagi! Psst! Usagi!" A familiar voice called out from the open window. She looked out and down and seen Luna.
"Luna! Please help me. What am I supposed to do?" Usagi asked.
"They will take you to the church further up town. Go along with their plan and we'll show up to help soon after."
"Luna please don't make me go through this. Please stop."
"I can't guarantee anything but we will try."
"Luna!"
"Usagi-Chan, you have to stay brave. I promise, you will be free when this is all over with. Now I got to go or-"Luna then suddenly ran away because a light went on. Usagi seen someone taking out the trash and ran back to her bed. Now she could get a better night sleep knowing that tomorrow she would be rescued. Or at least…she hoped.
The next morning she felt hopeful but then the feeling called nervous took control. Usagi ate breakfast that was left on a tray outside her room and obeyed her orders. She got changed in the dress and shoes provided and looked into the mirror suddenly noticing her sorrowful and bitter expression. It was what she always wanted, her wedding day had finally come, but it was to be shared with the wrong groom. She walked downstairs and out the front door a limo, not stretched, and its driver was waiting for her. She got in the car and was driven to the church. The car ride lasted luckily longer than expected but still not long enough. She got out of the car and to her surprise the church had guests from the resort already piled in and seated. They were so blinded, they cheered and thought this to be a happy wedding but it was, from the beginning, destined for doom. DUN DUN DUN!
The driver opened the door and escorted her out. Oh no! This can't be happening! It shouldn't be now! Then Kuro Shinzō disguised as met her to walk her down the aisle.
He bowed. "Mamm!"
Usagi's nose twitched then a sudden memory, more of a quick flash back appeared in her mind. Images from the past came in like camera flashes. She began to remember them all, Tokugawa, Kuro Shinzō, all of it. The wave of memories over flooded her head and she passed out right there on the curb.
Tokugawa came over and served princess Serenity tea as he joked around with her, they were always good friends. She use to laugh at his jokes all the time. He is so kind and gentle, or at least was. His attitude started changing and became more aggressive one day, but why? Suddenly an image of him spying appeared. He spied on Princess Serenity and watched as this Prince Endymion held her like something precious and seen hoe she would allow him to kiss her lips gently. The entire thing made Tokugawa sick and jealous. 'Oh, I get it now.' Usagi thought to herself. Tokugawa then tried to hurt the prince one day but was caught and imprisoned for the rest of his life. 'What are these images, where am I?' Suddenly Usagi noticed she was dreaming about the memoires she had from the past.
By the time she woke she found herself in the back room where all the brides hide before walking down the aisle. Not to her delight (Kuro Shinzō in disguise) was there. "Tell them to begin." He waved to a man in a tuxedo that walked out.
"Tuxedo Mask?" Usagi mumbled rubbing her eyes.
"No. But do not worry; he will be fine if you do as I say." said
"W-Why are you helping Tokugawa with all of this? I remember you, and you aren't the kind to indulge in silly boy fantasies."
"Well I figure watching you suffer would give me some peace of mind."
"You don't have any piece of mind unless there's blood shed."
"I need Tokugawa to stay a part of my plan so I indulge in his fantasies…until the honeymoon that is." His eyes glared but he gave a creepy grin. A shiver ran down Usagi's mind. She didn't know what he was planning.
The man came back to signal the bride.
"Well now, shall we begin?" He asked as he offered his arm. Oh no! The moment that's been feared, Usagi's nightmare was beginning to become too real.
They came around the corner and ahead was the towns people, the resort's guests, a preist, and Tokugawa. This was it, all attention on her and all she could see was Tokugawa, once a good frined but driven mad with jealousy now. 'Where are they? Why haven't they showed up yet?' She thought about the other sailor scouts. 'This cannot be happening!' They made it to the alter and the look in Tokugawa's eyes was bittersweet. Some vows were traded, and tears dripped down her face which everyone thought were of joy. The ring swap came…she began to think…that nobody would rescue her now.
Suddenly a rose slashed at Tokugawa's hand and he dropped the ring before he could put it on her finger.
"Sorry, but that's my bride." A familiar voice said. She was tempted to look back.
'Mamo-Chan? But that's impossible!?'
