Hi hi! Here's another chapter! Glad you all liked the last one which I revised. Now I'm upping the ante a little bit, but first I need a poll. Should Usagi and Mamoru get back together or should she throw him out and give her heart to someone else? Should Usagi really leave or should she stay? (I'm actually going in real life! Argh! Fear! Going to Japan all alone!)
Standard disclaimers apply. I do not own Sailor Moon, though I pray daily that someday I will.
Usagi sighed as she watched Haruka and Michiru exchange a wordless glance. "You might as well tell me what you are thinking." She commented.
"When would you leave?" Michiru asked.
"6 weeks." She replied, her eyes downcast. "6 weeks until my life changes forever and I can go on the greatest adventure of all. And hey! Who's to say that there isn't youma activity in Canada anyway? I can check out the evil level in another part of the world!" her eyes brightened.
"But in the end you are running." Haruka said bluntly.
Usagi bit back a sob. "Yes Haruka. I'm running. I'm running from a place that never asked me what I wanted, a place where I was forced to assume the mantle of a warrior, a place I have died for and never once received a thanks. I'm running from so-called friends who like me when it's convenient, who feel the need to lie to me, who give me no credibility whatsoever. I'm running from a future child who hates me, and a man who though I gave him my heart and soul can't love me for who I am. So yes Haruka. From all these things, I'm running."
Michiru laid a hand on Usagi's hair. "Usagi we understand your pain, and we are not unsympathetic. But there are a thousand little things you aren't thinking of."
"Name one." Usagi retorted.
"Who will lead the Senshi once you are gone?" Haruka demanded. "Venus? Mars? I think not!" she scoffed.
"Why don't you do it then?" Usagi said mildly.
"Because the Inners will never accept us." A voice cut in. Usagi turned to see Setsuna and Hotaru materialize beside the car. "And Usagi, thanks bunches for setting both Mamoru and Rei on me."
Usagi blushed. "Sorry, but I wanted to hurt them they way I hurt."
"Oh I'm not complaining." Setsuna smiled. "I had fun with both of them, playing mind games and all."
"So you are leaving Princess?" Hotaru asked in a small voice.
"I am." Usagi nodded.
"Then we must go with you." Setsuna declared. "The largest problem looming in the protective mind of Haruka is that you will be unprotected. The Inners are stupid and vapid little girls who are going to learn in a hurry just what it was you really did do. We will go with you, the TRUE defenders of the Royal Family I might add."
"And what about the future. Chibi Usa?" Usagi questioned.
"The future has not been damaged past all reparation yet." Setsuna reassured her. "And as for Small Lady, right now I'm realizing that I never knew what a brat she was, and her loss doesn't upset me too much. She still exists here, which means she still exists in the future. Make of that what you will." Setsuna replied in typical cryptic fashion.
Usagi nodded, realizing what Setsuna was truly saying. "Now that I've told you my news, I'd like to go home please. I have much to do, and not much time to do it in."
"Are you excited about leaving?" Hotaru asked.
"I'm excited I can live my dream yes. I want to be on my own, in a place a thousand worlds from here, where all my troubles disappear. If there's a way to release me, I can start my life again, like a mountain I'll stand tall and find the strength somewhere within. If only I was much older, I could think of another way, and lift this weight from my shoulders, will I ever see that day? When dreams will be worth dreaming, and I will know what it's like to cry. In my darkest night, I will survive." She said, smiling. "I want to be on my own."
Haruka started the car. "Michiru, get out the passports."
Michiru smiled. "Already did."
It was only 10 a.m when the phone began ringing in the Tsukino household. Usagi moaned and lifted the receiver. "Moshi moshi?" she yawned.
"I'm coming over Usako. We need to talk." The angry voice of Mamoru woke her fully.
"Iie Mamoru. I have nothing to say to you." She spat back.
"True, you said enough the other day," he conceded. "But this isn't over Usako. You think I can't read your mind? You think I don't know you're leaving? You think I don't know that you're consigning Chibi Usa to death?"
"Of course," Usagi smacked her head. "I should have known this would be about her. You only want to get back together for her."
"No Usako. I do love you, truly I do, but I do love her as well." Mamoru said gently. "You have to stop being jealous of a little girl."
"A little girl who's side you always take, even when she's wrong. My god Mamoru! You sided with her even when she was Black Lady! Who's the hypocrite here!" she exclaimed. "I can't talk to you right now. I have to pack and see about my passport and visa. I don't have time for you."
"Usako don't you dare hang up that phone!" Mamoru warned.
Usagi saw red. "You think I'm so naïve, how dare you play with me? I gave you my heart and soul, tell my baby please, why are you screwing with my head? You don't think I understand? I won't take your *hit no more, don't knock on my door. Not this time, I've heard it all before and I…think of all the nights that I wasted, think of all the times that I took you back, ain't no way I'll be lonely, I don't want to let you back in. Let's just face it, you're all alone and I won't turn back, thought that I would be lonely….I don't want to let you back in."
"Well you grew a backbone anyway." Mamoru said in an impressed tone. "Such a turn on."
"Mamoru, it'll be almost impossible for you to make this up to me and get me back." Usagi sighed. "As you once told me, why should everything I do be determined by who I was in the past, or who I am in the future. I need to figure out who Tsukino Serenity Usagi really is, and that means I don't have a place for you in my life right now."
"I feel your pain." Mamoru called her bluff. "The link is strong and I feel your pain in those words."
"Mamoru, if you love me, set me free. Let me go. I let you go to America and I endured. Now it's your turn. If you want to start rectifying this whole mess with me, then let me do this." She paused. "Why do you suddenly care anyway? The other day you hated me?"
"I'll think on it." Mamoru said abruptly and hung up.
"Think on it or don't," Usagi said aloud. "I'm doing this."
"You irresponsible brat!" an angry voice yelled at her. Usagi jumped as she saw Luna bristling from the doorway with Chibi Usa, who was sticking her tongue out at her.
"Take a hike you two." Usagi said as she began to dress. "I have things to do."
"No," Luna said firmly. "You are going to listen to what I have to say Usagi."
Usagi sighed. "Luna, I have been listening to you for years. I don't care anymore. I have no intention of listening to you ever again, and if you don't shut up, you'll be a normal cat without the ability to speak! Do I make myself clear?"
"Usagi listen…" Luna began.
"Not another word Luna! You are dangerously close to treason!" Usagi sneered. "Get out of my room."
"This isn't over Usagi!" Chibi Usa warned.
"Isn't it?" Usagi smirked. "We'll just see." She murmured as her mother screamed.
"Who is this child in my house? How did she get in?" Ikuko shrieked. "With a CAT no less! Get them out of my house!"
Kenji walked slowly up to Chibi Usa. "I don't know who you are little girl, but get out of our house."
Chibi Usa turned to Usagi, tears in her eyes as she realized what her future mother had just done. "Usagi!" she wailed.
"Bye Chibi Usa." Usagi smirked. "Don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out."
Kenji escorted Chibi Usa to the door and shoved her out. "Please don't return little girl, or your cat either."
Usagi grinned in spite of herself when they left. "Now to finish my days plans." She sighed. "I should make up with Makoto and Minako, but Rei and Ami are on their own." She decided, dialling Minako's number.
"Moshi moshi?" Minako replied as she answered the phone.
"V babe," Usagi began. "We need to talk."
"Agreed. Shall I come over?" Minako replied relief in her voice.
"Bring Mako-chan with you too. Don't tell the others." Usagi warned. "I MIGHT be persuaded to forgive you."
"Arigato Usagi-chan!" Minako squealed. "I'm bringing Artemis though."
"Tell him to keep his mouth shut and his opinions to himself." Usagi warned.
"Done. See you shortly." Minako hung up.
Usagi sighed, not noticing Mamoru perched outside her window in the tree, listening to every word. "In the name of Tsukiyomi no mikoto, I will get you back Usako. I will get you to forgive me, and I will get you to listen to the truth." He vowed. "Damn you Rei for your mind tricks…"
Ok! That's the end of chapter 2! What do you think! Review people! No flames please as I'm still fairly new at this! So remember to give me feedback on my little poll that I'm doing!
Lyrics from the song "Don't take me home" by Terry Kelly are used, along with "Lonely" by Britney Spears. For those who aren't up on their Japanese religion, Tsukiyomi no mikoto is the name of the Moon Goddess.
Ja ne!
