Sailor Moon Fan Fiction ❯ The Road to Hell ❯ Prologue ( Prologue )

"Have you tried Rei's Temple, Kenji?" Ikuko Tsukino asked her husband frantically.

"I told you a thousand times already, they don't have a phone at the temple," a stressed out Kenji practically growled at his wife.

"Well I don't understand where she could be. She said she was going out for about two hours four hours ago! Where could that girl be?" Ikuko cried. Something just didn't feel right to Ikuko. She knew Usagi could be irresponsible at times but she always called home if she was going to stay out this late at night.

"If I find out that she was with that boy all this time...." Muttered Kenji, his fear making him sound more threatening than usual.

Knock knock

Ken and Ikuko both heard the knock on the door and knew deep down that it was bad news concerning their daughter. It was midnight and Usagi had taken her keys when she left. If it were Usagi coming home late, it would be more reasonable for her to try and sneak into the house rather than risk getting grounded for scaring the life out of her parents.

Ikuko opened the door to a police officer. Tears sprang into her eyes at the sight and her fears were confirmed.

"Is this about our daughter, Usagi?" Kenji asked, knowing the answer already and praying to all the gods that were out there that whatever happened to his daughter, that she would be fine.

The officer gazed sadly at the distraught parents. A missing child is a parent's worst nightmare. He had a daughter around Usagi's age and would hate to be her parents right now for the news he would tell them. "Mr. and Mrs. Tsukino, I'm afraid I have some bad news concerning your daughter. Around three hours ago, a passerby found your daughter in an alley. She was taken to the hospital where it was discovered that she had been brutally raped and beaten. The doctors were able to...."

The police officer trailed off for Ikuko had fainted in Kenji's arms.
