Hello again! Yes here we have more insomnia writings by me, the one who is slowly going out of her mind. I hope you enjoy this chapter as much as the last one, as things actually progress slightly until Minako reveals a secret about herself! Please read and review but be kind! Standard disclaimers here! No Flames! I hope you are still enjoying this!
Usagi regained consciousness slowly, gradually becoming aware that she was not alone in this black box. Her eyes widened when she was unable to raise her hands to brush the hair out of her eyes, and her jaw dropped when she realized she was tied to something. She saw red when she realized just who it was she was tied to. "Minako," she hissed. "I'm gonna kill you." She promised. She was tied at the wrist to Chiba Mamoru, her worst enemy, the person she hated more than life itself. Her left hand was tied to his right, and her right hand tied behind her. Mamoru groaned, still unconscious and she swiftly fell silent, thinking of painful ways to kill her friend when she saw her next. Glancing around she figured that this must be one of the senshi's homes; perhaps a basement or something since it sure as hell wasn't a closet because it was just too large. She heard a random creaking and realized that Minako had commandeered an elevator for her schemes. Leaning against the wall she was propped up on, she glanced over at the unconscious face of Mamoru and sighed. This was going to be hell.
For the second time in as many days, Mamoru awoke with a throbbing headache that didn't look like it was going away any time soon. Trying to raise his hand to brush the hair out of his eyes, he realized he was tied to something, and then quickly realized it was someONE. "Shit," he cursed, glancing around. Where the hell am I?" he murmured, hoping she'd not be awake.
"Either we're in an elevator or a very small storage room." She replied, dashing his hopes that she wasn't conscious.
"Great. I wonder whos idea this was."
"Who the hell do you think you half-witted, partially baked moron?" she snapped. "Did you fall out of the stupid tree and hit every branch on the way down?"
"Oh shut up Odango." He retorted.
"Don't you damn well call me that!" she raged. "Honestly when they handed out idiocy and stubbornness you must have returned twice."
"Well you're getting more creative," he sighed. "Maybe those Odango's of your release latent information to your tiny mind." He glanced around. "Minako, I know you can hear me!" he called. "Let me the hell out of here!"
"Sorry but I can't do that." Minako's giggling voice returned, disembodied in the faint light and creeping Usagi out. "See the lines you're both feeding us about hating each other and not liking each other are a load of codswallop."
"Is that what it's a load of?" Michiru's voice was in the background.
"Yes Mamoru, I saw that killer kiss." Haruka interjected.
"This would be really funny if it weren't happening to me." Usagi wailed. "Where the hell are we?"
"Storage elevator." Makoto piped up. "In my building. My landlord didn't have a problem with us using it for you."
"Maybe because you didn't ask him Makoto." Rei said snidely.
"Well they didn't need to know that." She retorted.
"Are all of you there?" Usagi wailed.
"We are Usagi." Ami's quiet voice spoke up.
"Ami, how could you do this to me?"
"I'm really sorry Usagi, I didn't want to knock you out, but you wouldn't have come any other way."
"You got that damn right."
"But you see I've always felt that you have to face your problems head on before you can move on with them, and you can't keep denying Mamoru forever."
"Watch me Ami!" Usagi snarled. "I'm so mad at you right now you blue- haired, overly brainy, four eyed…"
"Sorry Usagi," Ami apologized again. "I'm as devoted to you as anything but I can't take any more of your fighting with Mamoru. Until you two learn to play together like good children you are not coming out of there."
"AMI!" Usagi screeched.
"She's right Odango, so get comfy with Mr. Loverman there because it doesn't appear that you are coming out any time soon."
"I'm going to kill all of you." Usagi promised.
"Oh shut up Odango." Mamoru said wearily. "Should I assume Motoki is there as well?"
"Hi Buddy," Motoki's voice joined the many others. "Sorry to do this to you but you two wouldn't listen to reason. I had hope when you two were playing tonsil-hockey, but then Usagi went nutty and ran away. So we put Minako's Plan C into action."
"You were already to Plan C eh?" he arched an eyebrow. "But why tie us together?"
"Now you can't transform and kill each other that way. When you two can get along and admit you like each other, you're coming out." Motoki promised. "Until then, we're going for some burgers, so enjoy!"
"MINAKODON'TYOUDARELEAVE ME!COMEBACKHERERIGHTNOWANDLETMEOUTORISWEARINTHENAMEOFTHEMOONTHATIWILLTIERYO U RASS!IAMYOURPRINCESSGODDAMNIT…" Usagi shrieked.
"Give it up Odango, they're not answering, and would you turn down the volume? I don't want to be permanently deaf." Mamoru groaned quietly. "I'm trapped in here with you for goddess knows how long."
"Kiss my ass Chiba." Usagi spat.
"Bend over." He responded.
Usagi's swift intake of breath made Mamoru smile. 'Score 1 for Chiba!' he thought, triumphantly.
"You know Minako when we finally let them out of there, the one who's still alive is going to murder us." Haruka pointed out.
"You think they'd kill each other?" Minako blinked her eyes widely.
"You have two people who yes, are attracted to each other and have a future together, but haven't stopped fighting in nearly three years, tied them together and threw them into a space of 6 feet by 8 feet. Usagi is prone to strangling people when she gets pissed and when Mamoru snaps, I'm not sure what he'll do. They can't go more than half a foot from each other!" Michiru exclaimed.
"Someone is going to die." Rei nodded.
"I figure it'll be Mamoru, he won't hit a girl." Makoto nodded.
Minako shook her head. "The Goddess of Love has spoken. This is a perfect plan and one that can't go wrong, it's foolproof!"
"Well it was created by a fool." Haruka drawled.
"Haruka! Be nice!" Artemis interjected.
Haruka eyed Artemis through narrowed eyes. "Cat, the other white meat." She said with an evil grin.
Artemis fell silent. "I got the idea this morning when I was having some rice crispies." Minako smiled.
"Were the rice crispies giving you orders and telling you what to do?" Rei asked gently. "That's a sign of insanity you know."
"No," she scoffed. "That would be crazy. They just snapped, crackled and popped at me, re-affirming that this was a great plan."
"This plan was thought up by your breakfast cereal?" Haruka's eyes widened. "We ambushed our princess, knocked her out and tied her to her mortal enemy because your cereal told you to do it?"
Minako shrugged. "It worked didn't it?"
Haruka closed her eyes and Michiru patted her shoulder. "I'm going to kill you now Minako. Usagi is going to kill us when she gets out of there, you realize this right?"
"She'll be too happy to do a thing!" Minako giggled. "Trust me." She winked. "We can tell her that knocking her unconscious was an accident."
"Minako, when Pharaoh 90 destroyed half the city, THAT was an accident. This is a catastrophe!"
"Ah here we have Minako, boldly going nowhere." Rei gestured to her friend.
"This sucks you know," Minako seethed. "No one is giving me any credit around here!"
"Minako," Motoki put a hand on her shoulder. "You've just knocked out the most powerful person on this planet and practically hog-tied her to her worst enemy."
"So what's your point?"
"I give up!" Haruka groaned. "Let's enjoy our last meal shall we?"
Minako winked at them again. "Trust me."
"There must be some way to get free!" Mamoru struggled against the ropes while Usagi shook her head.
"I told you already imbecile that Makoto probably tied them and she's a genius with knots and stuff. You won't get free until they're damn good and ready for us to get free."
"I can't believe that." He spat at her.
"How many roads must you travel down before you admit you're lost?" Usagi dropped her head to a dark wall. I used to have a handle on life, but it broke."
"You've never had a handle on anything in your life you little irritating…blonde…pasty faced…" he sputtered.
"You know Mamoru," Usagi said conversationally. "I wish that for just one time you could stand inside my shoes." She paused. "You'd know what a drag it is to see you."
Mamoru leaned over towards Usagi. "Listen here you…"
"Don't let fear or common sense stop you from coming any closer." Usagi warned. "You touch me and I'll hurt you."
"You didn't act like it earlier when I kissed you."
"Don't you ever mention that again!" Usagi shook her head.
"Since we're not going anywhere, why don't we talk about this?"
"I don't want to talk to you. I wanted to go home and work on…" she bit her tongue as she realized what she had been about to say.
"Work on what Usagi?"
She froze. "You called me Usagi." She breathed.
"It's your name isn't it?" 'Score 2 for Chiba!' he thought. If he could keep her off-balance long enough…
"It's just a hobby I have jackass." She turned away from him again. "No one knows about it."
"Well tell me."
"And open myself up for more derision and ridicule and scorn? I think not!" she snorted.
"So you don't trust me?"
"Not as far as I can throw you."
"Well you're so weak that won't be very far at all."
"Go to hell."
"I think I'm already there."
"Bite me."
"Spread your legs."
"You ecchi…hentai…perverted…"
He snapped his fingers. "You know you keep saying that! Maybe I should start to act on it." He lunged across the small distance separating them and pulled her flush to him. "You tell a person he is something enough and he starts to believe it." He murmured.
"You unwise con. I won't give in to you." She retorted.
"Look, I admit that I'm attracted to you, there is something between us."
"A strong urge to kill you, yes." She nodded.
"Maybe Minako was right." He paused. "Perhaps all our arguing is a front for something else."
"Look Chiba, I think this place got to you." She held up a hand. "I hate you and you hate me and it's been that way for years. Don't change on my account." She paused. "I refuse to live in a world where Minako is right!"
"Usagi…"
"Did Minako drug you again? I reckon you were hit on the head harder than I thought."
"I'm not drugged!" he protested.
"Let me go." She wriggled and fought to get away from him.
"If you're going to move like that, let me adjust my position." He drawled.
"See what I said? Pervert!" she jabbed him in the chest with a finger.
"I have a nubile blonde on my lap who is writhing. I'm a man…"
"That's debatable."
"And I'm not a pervert!"
"Then stop being so crude!"
"Talk to me then! We have to reach some sort of truce."
"I'm not talking to you."
"Oh that's mature."
"Shut up."
"You said that already."
"Rot in hell."
"Only if you come too."
"Die a painful death."
"I'm sure you'll be the cause of it."
She fell silent, he wasn't holding back like he did in public. The first match had been made and no ground had been given. By her count the score was Chiba 2, Tsukino 0 and she'd have to change that. So they were at a stalemate. Crawling off his lap, she headed for a darkened corner, dragging him along with her. Curling up into a ball she buried her face in her knees, wishing she was anywhere else and promising lots of pain for Minako.
"How are my two little lovebirds doing?" Minako grinned.
"They just stopped arguing and are giving each other the silent treatment." Motoki reported. "You missed Usagi throw a great fit though. Mamoru will have one hell of a black eye when he gets out of there."
"That' s not supposed to happen." Minako frowned. "They should be reconciled by now."
"Minako when your cereal told you what to do, did you think this through at all?" Haruka questioned.
"That just slows things up. I thought it sounded like a good idea and I went for it."
"This is never going to work." Haruka groaned.
Minako sighed. "Trust me."
And that is the end of this chapter! I never expected all the reviews for chapter 4 and I'm thrilled! This is great! I'm so glad people like this story. In the next chapter…more of Usagi and Mamoru as they try to free themselves from Minako's evil scheme! Please read and review but be kind! Let me know if you want more!
Ja!
