Chapter 17

"WHAT?!?!" An echo ran though the Sailor Scouts.

"You can't do that!!!"

"We won't let you go!!!"

"It's too dangerous!!!"

"STOP!!" Usagi silenced them. "I've caused so much trouble, now I have to fix it, alone."

Usagi. A voice came in Usagi's consciousness. It was Rei's voice. Be careful. I know we have our differences, but you are my best friend, I don't want today to be the last day I ever see you.

Don't worry. Usagi answered with her mind. I'll be careful. Nothing will happen to me, I know it.

"I'm going." Usagi said, opening her eyes. She levitated off the ground slightly and then took off at full speed, heading straight for the Nemesis. 'I won't let you down, my friends.' She thought, looking back at them.

On Vegeta's Ship...

"One more day, until the arrival on Earth." A computerized voice said.

"One more day, to get stronger." He mumbled to himself. "Then I can save my Princess."

He had been training non-stop for days. He didn't even take a break when he became so tired he couldn't stand. He pushed himself even harder.

"I'll kill that bastard that took Usagi from me!!" He grumbled, pushing himself even harder. "He'll learn not to mess with my woman before I kill him."

Outside the Palace...

"We can't let her do this by herself!" Sailor Venus suddenly cried out after Usagi was out of sight. "We are supposed to protect her no matter what the cost!! We can't let her do this alone!!"

Everyone's eyes were cast to the ground.

"You're right!!" Cried out Sailor Jupiter. "Who's with us?! Who says we go help her?!"

"Count me in!" Mercury said, placing her hand in the center with Venus and Jupiter's hands.

"I'm in!" Uranus said.

"Yes, we have to protect the Princess!" Neptune said, placing her hand in the center of the circle.

"I'm in too!" Saturn said, placing her hand with the rest of the scouts.

"I'm in too." A voice said behind them. Sailor Pluto limped towards the rest of the group. She placed her hand in the circle.

"Let's do it!" They cried. They separated and held hands. They all concentrated on where they were going.

"Sailor Teleport!" They all cried in unison. They began to glow and in a moment, they were gone.

On the Nemesis...

Usagi flew to the Nemesis and landed on the surface with a soft thud. It was a dark quiet place. There was no life of any kind around her. All the energy from the hate and murder was on this small moon. There were shrubs that resembled trees, but all the negative energy choked the life out of them.

Usagi walked slowly and looked around her. It was so sad. She walked along a path that wound it's way through a maze of garbage.

"Hey pretty lady." A voice behind her said. "Come here."

Usagi looked at the man and noticed a small ball of negative energy in his hand. He may not be as evil as some of the monsters on that moon, but he was just as dangerous. Usagi looked around and saw more of them surrounding her. She stood perfectly straight, waiting for them to make the first move.

"Go on boys." She said. "Let's see what your made of."

Usagi stood in her fighting stance and began to power up. She began to scream causing them to cover their ears to block out the terrible noise. Small pebbles around her feet began to rise in the air and she was surrounded in a white light. The ground began to tremble and she saw a few of the men step back. Her hair began to change. It went from a soft blond to bright white. It grew in length and hung on the ground quite a bit.

"What is she?!" One of the men said, taking a step back. He was about ready to run for his life, but his leader stopped him.

"Where do you think you're going?!" He demanded.

"N... Nowhere." He said, turning back to Usagi who was still powering up.

All of a sudden, her screams stopped and the pebbles that floated around her, fell to the ground. Her hair was still white and she was still surrounded by a white light.

"Do you still want to fight?" Usagi asked, her eyes narrowing in on their leader. She levitated off the ground and floated towards him, stopping with her lips inches from his ear. "I must tell you though..."

She whispered in his ear in a soft voice. "You don't stand a chance."

Before he was even able to utter a word, her fist plunged into his stomach causing him to fly into a large rock that was behind him. He fell to the ground, spitting blood on Usagi's shoe. This made Usagi very angry. She picked him up by the front of his shirt.

"That was a bad move." She uttered, all of his men had fled from the scene, leaving him to deal with his fate. Usagi held him off the ground and prepared to destroy him. She had become a vicious killing machine. She was about to kill him, when a face floated into her mind. It was the face of her future daughter, ChibiUsa. She saw her ruby red eyes looking up at her. She couldn't kill this man. She didn't want her daughter to know the

hatred that existed in the world. If she killed this man, she was the same as he was. She was just as evil. She had killed before, but it had been because they had refused to let her help them. It was the only alternative.

She slowly lowered him to the ground and released his shirt. He slumped to the ground and Usagi turned in the other direction and walked away. He looked after her and saw something that he didn't know existed. It was mercy and compassion. He watched her walk away and began to laugh a crazy laugh. His laugh echoed all around her, but she just ignored it and focused on what had to be done.

"Poor guy." She muttered to herself. "He's so crazy that it wasn't worth the trouble."

Usagi walked faster along the trail and prepared for more encounters. She knew that that had not been the last.

Back to the rest of the scouts...

"Where are we?" Sailor Venus asked, looking around her at the ruin. "Is this the Nemesis?"

"I think so." Said Sailor Jupiter.

"This is the Nemesis girls!" Sailor Mercury burst out. She was taking a few readings. "According to my calculations Usagi is over there!" She said pointing to the left. "There's an awful lot of negative energy around here. I don't know if we can use our powers. It might block them out."

"Oh well!" Sailor Pluto burst out. "We have to find her right now! She might be in danger!"

"You're right." Sailor Mercury said. "Let's go!"

With that all of the scouts, besides Sailor Moon, were heading in the direction Usagi was located. They came a spot along the way that was still smoking. It looked like something Usagi did.

"Come on!" Sailor Jupiter yelled. "She's not too far from here!"
