Blueeyeddevil06, thank you so much for being my beta!

Rei smiled as Usagi showed her the text from Makoto. Then she said, "well, my vision was correct. Four of the planets found love."

They were at Usagi's apartment which meant they were in the place that Mamoru rented.

"Three," Usagi corrected. "We haven't met Venus. Unless…have you had another vision?"

"No, but you forget that Mamoru is Earth. He's a planet."

Usagi smiled, "he is my world."

Rei laughed and made a gagging noise. "Sappy!"

Shrugging, Usagi said, "but true."

She then added. "When I was younger and human, I wanted so much to fall in love. I imagined guards falling hopelessly in love with me, lords begging for me to just smile at them to make them feel whole, knights that wanted to pledge their lives and their sword for my protection and love…And then I grew up. I lived and watched love used as a weapon to subjugate the other sex. Men and women use it to have the upper hand. Love became a dirty word. And then I met Mamoru. I'm okay with sappy. He changed everything for me."

Rei looked at her and chuckled. "And I thought I had walls."

"You definitely let them down with Jadeite," Usagi sassed.

"Turns out it's hot being hunted through the woods by a werewolf. It was like getting too close to the Great Fire. It was thrilling and dangerous." She laughed again. "And I ended up with sticks in my hair. Grandpa figured out what we had been doing."

"And he can see the mark," Usagi noted, having been updated on everything.

"Yeah. Weird. Right?"

"Only because the spell is hard, and you said he said he isn't powerful. I can teach you what you need to do the spell. You're more than capable, and I have a feeling there are those amongst us that would like to be able to see their mark."

"Wow. Still weird to hear I'm this powerful witch. I just had no clue. Grandpa didn't tell me."

"He gave you as normal a life as he could. You said people already thought you were odd. Plus, he's right. I'm not a witch, but I have a lot of knowledge. I can help you the most."

Rei flopped on her side on the couch. "That's the weirdest thing too." She held out her hand. "Somehow, I just know some things." A ball of fire erupted from her palm and burned there. Usagi laughed.

"The power you have is incredible. I'm a bit sad that you aren't my reincarnated mother. You're too powerful to be her."

"I am reincarnated, though. That was weird to see." She then extinguished the fireball easily. "We knew each other before."

Usagi looked at her hands. "A princess twice and then queen. Weird."

Rei sat up quickly. "What!?"

Usagi then explained the prophecies to her. And why vampires had sought her out over the centuries to be her love.

Unazuki walked up to the counter and handed Motoki the money. "Here, they paid." She then looked over at the front door nervously as it wooshed open.

"Who has you so freaked out?"

She looked back at him with worried eyes. "That guy. The…the bad guy. I'm worried he'll come back."

"Sis, can you trust me on something?"

"Yes."

Motoki looked her in the eyes and said, "patrons come in here. People who like the food and the service." He figured that was the best explanation he could give. "They have power to—the ability to keep him away. You won't see him again."

Artemis sat in Yamato's desk chair with his nose scrunched up. He had swiveled the seat to talk to Mamoru and the medical examiner. "It stinks in here. How do you handle it?"

Yamato ignored the question and said, "we have more bodies."

Mamoru pulled back the sheet on one. "This one has the marks of the ritual Diamond's sister, Emerald, uses. He doesn't fit the recent pattern." The mark was an added part of his yakuza tattoo. Usagi had shown Mamoru what to look for. Yamato had been disappointed that he missed the difference. He had assumed it was a mark of a higher status. Mamoru pointed out that, in a way, it was true. They did have a different status.

Yamato quipped, "and he has blood left in his body. Odd, isn't it?"

Artemis stood, walked over, and looked at the corpse. "She promised to stop killing. And…" his eyes flicked to Mamoru. "She probably doesn't want to make more work for you."

Mamoru said, "I know you're baiting me, but the truth is there are too many for her to kill. Even with how monstrous they are, she can only tolerate so much killing. They figured out what she was doing and created more. She stopped because she thinks she is creating more suffering." He sighed. "I tried to explain it wasn't her fault."

Artemis sighed. "She's pregnant, isn't she?"

Yamato snapped his head to look at the Detective. "Usagi can't get pregnant!"

Mamoru then chuckled. "Yes. Luna is pregnant. How did you figure it out?"

"She's tired a lot and out of breath when she walks up the stairs. She's younger than me, but aren't I too old to be a father?"

Yamato snorted because he was laughing too hard. "Most men would be proud to knock up their wife so quickly."

Mamoru looked at Artemis and said, "Usagi says…" he looked at Yamato and added, "she's known them in their past incarnation. They always marry." He then turned to Artemis. "Usagi says you're a fantastic father, and every time you worry, you won't be."

Artemis took a deep breath through his nose and regretted it. "I can't believe I'm having a heart-to-heart talk surrounded by smelly, dead bodies."

Yamato asked, "why is this a bad place? It should remind you to live in the moment."

Artemis shook his head. "I have Luna for that. I don't need corpses."

Ami was sitting on the couch when Zoisite walked in, flopped on the other side, and laid down, putting his head in her lap. "Nephrite managed to mark Makoto despite being an idiot and not going to you for advice."

She laughed and picked up the glass on the end table. There was a coaster there, of course. She sipped and said, "he didn't need my help."

He rolled his eyes dramatically. "Everyone needs your help. You're brilliant. You made blood tablets. The drink you have now is from one."

"And you're adorable. I can't be the first to have come up with this."

He scoffed. "Of course you are. Tell Usagi about it and see her reaction."

She shifted and said, "that's my worry. What if I reinvented the wheel? It would be embarrassing. It might have existed for hundreds of years."

He looked up at her and said, "Ami. You're brilliant. Tell her. Worst case scenario, you did invent something already existing, and you impress her because of how hard it was. Plus," he added, smiling up at her. "I will bet you you're the first ever to come up with them."

"I'd take that bet, but first, I need to know what goes to the winner."

"Five hours."

"Of…?" She asked, smiling down at him.

He gave her a heated look. "Whatever I want to do sexually with you. You and your body are wholly mine for the plundering."

"And if I win?"

"You won't, but then you get five hours to do with me as you'd like."

"And boundaries?" She asked.

He huffed and rolled his eyes. "It's not like I'd ask for a orgy. Or even hurt you. Do we need them?"

She shook her head, "no, you're right. I trust you."

"Be prepared for me to eat sushi off your body like in those restaurants. Then I plan on having dessert and licking it off you."

She shrugged and said, "so it sounds like it will happen no matter who wins. That sounds exciting."

"And now I'm hard," he said, sighing.

She looked at the crotch of his pants. "Want to go up to our room?"

"Yes!" He said as they got up and sped to the bedroom.
