Black Dawn Lady of the Black Rose Ladynorose@hotmail.com ~*~*~*~*~*~ Heyyas! Here's part 7!! Usual disclaimer, usual insane comment about how SINATO IS MINE!!! Also, I don't know the Starlights speeches, so I'll be making up my own here. BUT, if anyone knows them, E-MAIL ME!! FOR THE LOVE OF PETE, PLEASE!!! Eek. Got carried away agin. Gomen. *dodges the lemon thrown her way* ~*~*~*~*~*~ "Oh, shit." Usagi murmured. The deep, sultry voice came from the other side of the door, but Usagi and Sinato could hear Mars telling them to break it down. "Oh, no." Sinato said. He had seen Endymion angry before, and he had no wish to be the object of that. "Here, um, er, in the closet!" Usagi pushed him into the small, dark, cramped room and slammed the door. "THUD!" It was most likely Tuxedo Mask, and/or Jupiter. Usagi ran to the door. "Stop that! Stop that right now!" She shrieked. "THUD!" "Ami-chan, I'll look you up tomorrow, okay? Give my love to the senshi, and tell Mamoru to get lost." Usagi said, and whsipered a few words. She disappeared in a flash of silver light, a mystified Ami sittig on the bed. The door burst open, and Jupiter crashed through oh- so-gracefully. "Usako!" Tuxedo Kamen had managed to grab the door frame before falling. He found no sight. Sinato stepped through a portal that Pluto had put there for him. He reminded himself to thank her later, and attemp to kill Rose for having Usagi shove him in a closet. ~*~*~*~*~*~ "What the-- oh." Yaten was jolted from a sound sleep to see a silver girl and then a girl appear in his room. "Sorry to have woken you, Yaten." Usagi said apologeticly. "I have a slight problem." "What is it?" Yaten asked. Even though he had only known her for a day, he already trusted her. Usagi had that innocent girlish thing. "The senshi have found me, They brought a little 'surprise' with them." Usagi sighed. "I've got to go now. I just needed somewhere to stop and call on Puu." Usagi winked, and vanished again. In the morning, Yaten wondered if it ever even happened. ~*~*~*~*~*~ "She shoved ME in a CLOSET!" Sinato complained to a very irrated senshi of Time. "Oh, so you'd rather have a rose in your back." Usagi said as she appeared. She immediatly turned to PLuto. "Yes, yes. They know. How do they know? TV. Why are they here? They miss you. Should you go back to them? No. Why? Because the Fate of the World is on your shoulders. Again. Why am I answering the questiuons before they get out of your mouth? Takes less time if I do. DO I want to kill Sinato? Yes." Pluto said. Usagi raised an eyebrow. "Thanx. But another biggie. Do you mind if I date Seiya?" She asked. "Why not. But if Mamoru ends up killing him--" "Wait a second. Usagi, you told us Endymion wasn't here." Sinato interrupted. "Well, he wasn't. He was in Japan. But now he's here, I have to avoid him." Usagi said. "Princess, we have a disturbance in Sector 4. If you and Sinato go, I'll provide a distraction for the senshi. And I'll warn the Lights." Pluto twirled her staff mindlessly. CRASH! "Damn. That was an antique, too." PLuto looked remorsely at the vase. "Aztec. Damn Damn damn." "Remind me to break your staff after we kil this enemy." Usagi rolled her eyes and grabbed her locket. "We'll go." She said. "MOON COSMIC POWER MAKE UP!" She shouted. Sinato donned his armour. ~*~*~*~*~*~*~ "My Queen, the senshi have teleported to America. I believe they are searching for Sailor Moon. They got dangerously close, but she vanished into PLuto's realm." Codir said. "Perfect! She is running from them!" Metealia shrieked. "We have a perfect chance to attack, too. Some sort of rally is being held at a large building they call City Hall. The energy span is emense, and should boost our pwer consideraby." "Very well. Procede." ~*~*~*~*~*~*~ "Ami! Why didn't you stop her?" Minako whined. They were in Usagi's abandoned hotel room. "Stop her?! I don't even know what she did!" Ami snapped. For the last hour, they had been interogating her mercilessly. She was beyond irrated. "You could have jumped her! Something!" Mamoru insisted. Ami glared at him. If looks could kill, he'd be six feet under. "Well, *excuuuuuuse* me, your imperial majesty! For your information, your precious Usako has no desire to see you! She was in here with a *GUY*." Ami shouted, and then clamped a hand to her mouth. "Oops." "A guy?!" Minako, Makoto, and Rei crowded around Ami, while Mamoru stood staring into empty space. "Uh-oh." Ami murmured. "Who was he? "Was he cute?" "Was she-- you know...." "Minako-chan!" AMi gasped at her friend's suggestion. "I don't know *who* he was, he just said his name was Sinato. And yes, he was cute--" "How cute?" Makoto inquired. "Um, er, as cute as--" "That really hot American singer Ricky Martin-cute?" Minako asked. "Cuter." Ami answered. Minako and Makoto got starry looks in their eyes and began daydreaming. "He was just wearing boxers and she was in a robe--" "She was staying with a guy?" Rei asked scepticly. "That does NOT sound like Usagi. And was it that guy in the armour we saw on TV?" Ami nodded. "Oh. Well, I can see her point, then. Wow-- what a hunk--" Rei got the same look as the other two girls. *_* "Usako-- with another man?" Mamoru asked. Ami walked over to him. "I'm really sorry, Mamoru-san. BUt she did look awfully chummy with him. Although he seemed more like a body-guard than a boyfriend." AMi added. Mamoru brightened at this. "But if he's her boyfriend, he's dead." He murmured. ~*~*~*~*~*~ Wow. Things aren't exactly going to hot for our Sinato, huh? ~*~*~*~*~*~ "Hold it right there, sleeze-ball! I cannot allow you to hurt these people. A pretty Sailor-suited warrior of Justice, I am Sailor Moon! In the name of the Moon, I right wrongs and triumph over evil. And that means you, you DNA reject!" Sailor Moon jumped from the top of the building, Sinato landing behind her. The people stopped in mid-panic to gawk. "Rahahaha! I am Xenious!" The youma screeched. "STAR SERIOUS LASER!" Xenious was just barely able to dodge the beam of white. "The fighter of the stars, I am Sailor Star Fighter!" "The cynic of the Ow! Maker!" Healer glares at Maker, who just hit him. Maker glares back. "Fine. The healer of the stars, I am Sailor Star Healer! Happy? "Yes. And I am Sailor Star Maker!" "RAAAAA!" Xenious lept at Sailor Moon, who he had been given orders to kill. She was barely able to jump out of the way, a red streak appearing on her side. Sinato raced forward and caught her before she hit the pavement. A scream rang out from the crowd of on-lookers. "Alright, you nega-trash." Healer said. "STAR SENSITIVE INFERNO!" "STAR GENTLE UTERUS!" Maker and Healer combined the two attacks an sent the youma crashing into the wall. "Sinato, I'm fine. I have to kill this youma." She stood up, leaning heavily on Sinato's shoulder. "Okay, but BE careful." Sinato warned. "SPIRAL MOON HEART ATTACK!" She shouted. The youma jumped out of the way just as the pink heart reached him. Sailor Moon gasped. "SUPER NOVA CANNON!" Sinato spun his sword around his head twice, and a huge energy discus appeared. He pointed the sword at Xenious, and the discus, along with a burst of energy from the sword, hit the youma. "Again!" he shouted to Sailor Moon. "SPIRAL MOON HEART ATTaCK!" She shouted. This time, Xenious was successfully captured in the heart, and exploded. "Alright, let's move!" Maker yelled. Fighter ot to Sailor Moon before Sinato. "I've got her." She said to Sinato. "I'm fine, I can walk, see-- OW!!" Blood began to flow anew. Sailor Moon nearly crumpled to the ground again, but Fighter scooped her up in her arms and they ran away. ~*~*~*~*~*~ "I sense something!" Mars said, stopping in her tracks. Jupiter turned and looked at her. "Here? In America?" She asked incrediously. "Listen, I know what I feel and I'm getting a youma!" Mars retorted. "Um, okay. Let's go." said Jupiter. Mars began to run for the evilness she felt and came apon a scene that nearly blew her mind. Sailor Moon! Sailor Moon shouted something, and attacked the youma with a new wand. Then, one of the new girl senshi picked her up and they ran off. "No way." Jupiter muttered. "You get the others. I'm following them." Mars whispered. She ran after them. Jupiter stared at her disappearing figure and then pulled out her communicator. "Venus! V, come in!" She hit the orange button. Venus's not-so-chipper face appeared. "V here. Sup?" "Minako, you are not going to believe this, but we just saw Sailor Moon. Mars is following her, but I need you to get here, now." Jupiter said excitedly. "And you would not BELIEVE how hunky that guy is! Wow!" "OO!" I'll track Mars and follow her. Merc is with Tux, so if you get her, you'll get him." Venus's face disappeared. Jupiter hit the blue button. After a few minutes, Mercury's face came up. "Ami! We saw Usagi!" "Where?" Mercury asked. "Mars and Venus are following her." Mercury's face disappeared and Mamoru's came up. "Was she with that GUY?" Mamoru asked. "Geez, Tux. Yes, but not *with* him. She was injured, but one of the girl senshi got her. Rei's following them, and Venus is catching up." "Okay." The screen went blank. "That guy has a serious jealousy problem." Jupiter muttered. ~*~*~*~*~*~ "See? Just a scratch. Sailor Moon is A- okay." Sailor Moon insisted. She stood up and walked a few steps. Seiya didn't miss the flinch, though. "Alright, then." Sinato said, but unsurely. Mars lurked in the shadows, unnoticed by the five in front of her. She saw a flash of gold up on the roof. Venus had got there. "Let's go back to the hotel, okay? Sinato, Sailor Pluto said she had checked out a new room for us." Sailor Moon ushered Sinato away, and Yaten and Taiki followed. Seiya stayed. "Usagi, you're lying." She said, the moment they were out of earshot. Mars rolled her eyes. *DUH* 'How does he know her name?' Maers asked herself. "Hehe, what makes you say that?" Sailor Moon asked, dehenshining. A new wave of pain from the reduced defenses made her stumble and fall into his arms. He caught her, and their faces came within millimeters of each other. "Woah." Mars breathed. She glanced up and saw Venus cheering silently. On a crazy whim, Usagi reached up and kissed him. His eyes went wide in shock, but his arms went up to her neck and back. "I hope Mamoru isn't here yet." Mars whispered. This was no, 'thank you for catching me' kiss. This was a 'firewroks and furnaces can't match this' kiss. As in 'the french have nothing on this'. "Geez." Jupiter sided up to Mars. "I don't think she's even kissed Mamoru like that." She whispered. "I'm used to heat, but wow!" Mars whispered, tugging at the choker around her neck. "It's been, what? Two minutes already?" Out of the corner of her eyes, she saw a flash of blue. "Oh, shit." "I'll go 'restrain' him." Jupiter joked, but worry was in her eyes. Mars breathed a sigh of relief when they broke apart. Usagi blushed and turned away. "Gom-- sorry, Seiya. I didn't mean--" "It's okay, Usa. Now come on, before Yaten comes back." Seiya was unsure about what that meant, but the girl need help getting back to the hotel. She put her arm around his shoulder and he helped her into the hotel building. When they were inside, Venus lept down. "Woo-hoo! That was a-- uh-oh." Mars turned around to meet a pair of very angry blue eyes behind a white domino mask. "Heh heh, you saw that, didn't you?" She asked weakly. ~*~*~*~*~*~ "Heyyas, red-face. What happened out there?" Yaten teased, after Sinato and Usagi had gone up to their new room, courtesy of a woman with dark green hair Usagi called Setsuna. "Nothing." Seiya said, too quickly. "Uh-huh. Sure." Taiki muttered. "Nothing happened! She didn't kiss me! I didn't kiss her! Nothing happened! Ack!" Seiya exploded, and then realized he had sealed his own fate. "You *kissed* her?" Yaten asked. "No!" "Dude! Hmm. What's her middle name?" Taiki asked. "Dunno." "How tall is she?" Seiya was wary, but he answered Taiki's question. "About an inch shorter than me." "Was it a lil kiss, or a 'The french have nothing on it' kiss?" Yaten asked. "French have nothi-- hey!" Seiya yelped, realizing he'd been tricked. "Ooo!" Yaten laughed. "Hmm. Seiya moves fast, huh, Yaten?" Taiki said. "Sumiasen? Wastiska no namae wa* Minako desu." A girl walked up to them. She had long blonde hair half swept up into a big red bow and big blue eyes. She grabbed Seiya's arm and pushed hima round the corner. "hey!" Seiya cried. She clamped her hand over his mouth. "You now that girl you just kissed? Usagi?" Minako asked. Seiya nodded. "Well, if you don't hide, you're going to be a dead man. Her boyfriend, or ex-boyfriend, as she puts it, is going to kill you." She said, in a english accent. ~*~*~*~*~*~ Sumimasen-- excuse me Wastiska ne namae wa Minako desu -- my name is Minako ~*~*~*~*~*~ "Do what?" Seiya yelped against her hand. A girl woth black hair zoomed around the corner and came to a screeching stop when she saw Minako. "Rei-chan, this is Mamoru's target. Whadda we do with him?" Minako asked. "Hide him." Rei said. "Where?" "Um, maybe we should go to Usagi's room." Seiya suggested. They looked at him like he was a genius. "Yes, that would be great!" Minako said. "No time!" Rei said, as a man began to turn the corner. They shoved Seiya into the elevators behind them, and Minako went in with him. Rei acted like she was looking around. "Who are you?" Seiya asked. "Ain-- Minako Aino. Nice to meet you, but ya see, Usagi isn't your everyday run of the mill girl. We're friends of her's, (at least I think we are)." "You're the senshi?" Seiya asked. Minako looked at him. "She told you that?" "She's running away from friends of her's. Sailor Pluto told her to. And Sinato knos who they are, but we don't. We just met her a couple of days ago. And we've been so overrun with monsters that we haven't had much time to talk." "Sinato? Is that his name?" Minako asked. "Yup." "What do you mean, over run with monsters. You don't fight." Minako said. "Oh, yeah." Seiya blushed. "Hmm. What else do you know?" "That-- hey. What do *you* know?" Seiya asked, before he gave away anything dumb. "Everything about that girl. She was my first cousin on the moon." Minako looked at him carefuly. "Oh, you're Princess Venus." Seiya said. "so that what she used to look like with blonde hair. Not bad." Seiya teased. Minako blushed, but a serious look came over her face. "You said Sailor Pluto. Damn. If Usagi's taking orders from her, that means the orders come from the Queen, and we can't go against the Queen's orders." "Whoa. Queen?" Seiya stopped her. "Yeah. Either Usagi's mother or Usagi. She's a princess, you know." 'Princess Kayuu? No, it couldn't be.' "No, I didn't, she must have excluded that little fact." "Well, I think Mamoru-san has gone." MInako said, opening the doors and taking a peek outside. "Who's Mamoru?" "Did she tell you about Endymion?" "Yes." "That's him." ~*~*~*~*~*~ Eek. I'm sorry, but I'm not to hot at writing romatic scenes. Hmm, what will happen to Seiya? Will Mamoru beat him to a pulp? Will our beloved caped man find his love? Find out on the next exciting episode of Black Dawn! *Alvacado flies at Rose* An alvacado? Well, you're using your imagination, at least. Rose @>-;--
