Part 3

Usagi was walking through the park, on campus, thinking.
There hadn't been
any attacks for a couple of days, so she also hadn't seen Tuxedo
Keman. She
had however started hanging out with Kemmy, Sean, and Mamoru.
She couldn't
help but remember how she really felt about Mamoru. She had
always wished
that she could call him Mamo-Chan, but somehow knew it would
never be. Now
these thoughts seemed to have changed. He had stopped calling
her Odango
Attama and even sang a few songs with her the other night at the
cafe. Usagi
sighed in confusion as she sat down on the edge of a round
fountain. She
wanted to be with him, but she couldn't read his signs well. She
turned
around to look at herself in the water. Over the years she had
grown a few
inches and gained more control over her balance. Though she did
still klutz
out every now and again.

A scream broke her away from her thoughts. A blue and
orange yoma with
razor sharp claws and flaming red hair was attacking a group of
college
students.
Seeing this Usagi tossed her hand into the air and cried,
"Moon Crisis Make
Up!"
After transforming she jumped down near the yoma.
"Hey flame head! Leave these people alone. I'm......"
before she could
finish the yoma slashed at her and caught her off guard. Before
she could
move it sliced her across the stomach. Screaming she dropped to
her knees.
When she pulled her hand off her stomach it was covered with
blood, the
white of her uniform was quickly turning red as well. Luckily
Tuxedo Keman
finally showed up, destroyed the yoma and pick Sailor Moon up.
"Hold on." he said as he raced her to the closest hospital.
Sailor Moon had
passed out before they got there.

"Get a doctor her fast!" he yelled as he burst though the
door of the
hospital. Three nurses ran over with a stretcher. Tux set Moon
down on it,
but never let go of her hand.
"Hang on Sailor Moon." he said.
"Sir we can't get through her outfit. It's like rock." one
nurse said. "How
does it come off?"
"I think you press the locket." he said nervously since a
crowd had formed.
A few cameras and video recorders where present so he used his
cape to block
the view as the nurse pressed the locket. The uniform dissolved
into ribbons
leaving Usagi in a blood stained white sun dress. Tux had to
hold his breath
to keep from gasping. It wasn't just Sailor Moon on the
stretcher but his
beloved Usako!

After she was stitched up and had some transfusions, Tux
picked the
sleeping girl up and began to leave.
"Where are you taking her?" a doctor asked.
"Home. She's not staying here and if a word of her identity
is spilled to
the public.... well lets just say it would be best if everyone
forgot this
mishap." He then hid Usagi with his cape and left. He took her
to his
apartment so he could keep an eye on her. She was still in the
hospital gown
when he placed her carefully on his bed. After placing the
locket on the
night stand and covering her up he left the room and
untransformed. Mamoru
ran a hand through his black hair as he collapsed onto the
couch. He grabbed
the phone and dialed Kemmy's number. She wasn't home so he
called the cafe.

"Hello, Sing-a-Long cafe. Kemmy speaking."
"Hey Kem, I need some help."
" What's up?"
"Usagi got hurt really badly. I got her to a hospital in
time but her dress
was ruined. All she's got at the moment is one of those stupid
hospital
gowns."
"Is she ok?"
"Yeah, she's asleep right know."
"She's at your place!?!??!?!?!"
"Yes! I wasn't going to leave her there after what I found
out."
"Well..."
"I'll tell you later."
"Ok, I'll come over with some cloths for her as soon as
Sean get's back. He
had to go bail his brother James out of jail."
"Again?"
"Yeah, see yah later."
Mamoru hung up the phone and went to check on Usagi again.
He sat on the
floor next to the bed and couldn't help watching her.

Usagi woke up and looked around. Not recognizing where she
was she bolted
up right and instantly felt pain. But she also felt a warm hand
rest on her
shoulder.
"Lay down, Usagi-chan, you'll rip out your stitches if
you're not careful."
"Mamoru-san?" Usagi laid back down and looked at him.
"Where am I?"
"My place. That yoma bashed you around pretty hard."
"Yeah..... HEY!!! How did you......"
"Calm down your secret's safe." Mamoru leaned over and
kissed her.
*This HAS to be a dream!* she thought, *But it feels so
real....*
Mamoru broke the kiss and looked caringly into her eyes.
"Everything will be fine Princess. Rest up." the he stood
up and left the
room, leaving Usagi in a state of confusion, love and shock.
