Hi! Well this story has been delayed A LOT! It's a really short part, if you want to know why, go and read the author's notes on throw away the key part three. Anyway here's the story..... LOVE TRIALS PART 3 ******************** Michiru, Haruka, and Setsuna were all crowded around the princess. Setsuna's arm was around Usagi's shoulders, in a motherly gesture. Michiru glanced at Haruka, "Usagi-imouto , Mamoru-san said he didn't want to see you anymore?" Usagi looked up, tears staining her pale skin, "Y...yes." Then a high-pitched noise filled the room, Usagi pulled out her communicator. "Yes?" A blurred picture of Rei's face appeared on the screen, Rei's purple eyes contained shock at seeing Usagi's tears. But said, " Transform! We have a monster, Downtown! Hurry!" Usagi nodded, wiping away tears she stood up, the city needs us, C'mon! MOON ETERNAL MAKE-UP! What!" Nothing happened, no burst of ribbons, no pulsating energy. ‘What! " the outers looked at her worriedly . Haruka, sighed and belted out her transformation." Sailor Uranus turned to Usagi. "Come with us. We might need your Princess Power." Usagi nodded and took after the shenshi. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*`*``*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*` Usagi and the outers arrived in downtown, to see a greyish monster trashing the city. Uranus ran up behind the monster and yelled, "WORLD SHAKING!" The monster got thrown back. It growled and lunged towards Uranus. But with a smart high kick, she pushed it away. The scouts started to crowd around the monster. The youma, looked around frantically then spotted Usagi. It started towards her. Usagi turned and was about to scream as the monster pounced, and.... Usagi found herself in Tuxedo Kamen's strong arms. She blinked and looked at him. "Mamo-chan? You saved me? You still love me?" she questioned. He looked down at her as if she was a small child. Giving her an icy stare he gritted out, "No, Usagi. I have to save you, or the world will be destroyed, so I did what anyone would do. Our personal lives shouldn't cause the world to suffer." Usagi looked up at him, then down again, feeling her eyes burning with tears, she turned away from Tuxedo. "Oh. But Mamo-chan, please couldn't you understand?" She swirled to look at him. He glared. "I already understand." Kamen turned away from Usagi, as Setsuna finished off the youma with her dead scream. Usagi looked at the floor, her eyes were glistening"Mamo..." But when she looked up, he was already gone..... "I'll always love you Endymion..." Michiru stepped up to Usagi and put a hand on her shoulder. Usagi then lightly shook it off, "Please, Michiru, I would like to be alone." She said softly. Michiru nodded and walked away. Usagi stood on the hill, staring at the sky as the cottony clouds floated by, Usagi shut her eyes, as a tear trailed down her cheek, "I'm sorry, Mamo-chan..." ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ A little while ago Minako sat across a booth with Derek. He reached over and clasped her hand with his. "Minako, you are very pretty, you know?" Minako blushed "Arigato Derek-chan, you're not so bad yourself." she smiled. Derek grinned, as his hair lightly wavered, then he leaned over and was about to... *BEEP BEEP* Minako abruptly stood up, grabbing her bookbag with one hand she said, "gomen, Derek, I've gotta go, later!" She yelped and ran off, leaving Derek alone. Derek watched her run off and sighed, then quickly shook his head he thought ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* The present Minako sat in her apartment happily chatting on the phone with Makota. "Yeah! And he was sooooo cute! I'm INCREDIBLY happy!" She yelped. Then her eyebrows furrowed and she said, "no mako-chan He does not look like your old boyfriend!" At that moment usagi walked in. Minako's eyes widened as she quickly said, "Bye mako, call ya later." Usagi stared at Minako. "Usagi-chan, I guess...i guess it didn't work out?" Usagi shook her head ever so slightly, ‘No minako, it didn't." Minaka felt her own eyes burn with tears for the princess, "Princess, I'm sorry." Usagi moved over to her bed and laid down, "So am I, Minako, So am I." [[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[ The next day Usagi and Minako sat on the set of ‘Crystal High'. Usagi was nervously fingering her bracelet. When she saw Mamoru walk in. How cpuld she forget? He had the part as her boyfriend on Crystal High! (Wink) Usagi watched as he talked to the producer, then strode over to her and sat down on the couch. Minako got up to ready her place. As usagi sat staring ahead pretending to not notice him, the director walked over to them. "Okay kids, this is a quick run through of the script. Serena," He said, gesturing towards Usagi, "Is gonna have to choose between two boys, her boyfriend, Darien(Mamoru) and another guy. As you know she stays loyal to Darien. Now, Usagi, Mamoru I want real emotion into this okay?" Without waiting for an answer the producer walked over to the cameras to set up. Watching the producer walk away ,Mamoru then harshly whispered, "At least your character's loyal unlike you." Usagi eyes widened as she clutched the arm of the purple sofa tighter, " If you would just listen." Mamoru shook his head, as Usagi gritted her teeth, "Mamoru, it was a friendly kiss." Mamoru narrowed his eyes, which were filled with coldness, "Friendly! Huh! It was much more than friendly! Besides how am I supposed to feel, when I see my girlfriend kissing another guy?" "You're supposed to feel hurt, I know that, but if you could get it through you stupid head." Usagi's voice started to higher. "LISTEN?" Mamoru almost yelled, as a couple of people turned their way. Both were standing up now, " why don't we just do it your way! Kiss first! Explain later? Sorry dear," He mimicked, "I have a boyfriend but what the heck let's kiss anyway!" Usagi felt frightened for a moment, she had never seen Mamoru so angry, "I SAID I'M SORRY!" She yelled then ran off the stage in tears. Everyone was watching now. Mamoru eyes glowered with anger, as he pushed his dark bangs out of his eyes and stomped off the other way. Minako looked at Mamoru then rushed off in the direction of Usagi. "Usagi, Usagi." she thought to herself as she ran, her blonde hair thrashing wildly in the wind, "Please don't worry, I"m sure it'll all work out.. It has to work out!" *^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^ Derek stood in front of his old companion. "So Derek. "The old man's words smoothly asked, "Is the plan going exactly as planned?" Derek smiled evilly, "Sure is, now about those wretched Sailor Shenshi...." />?/>?>?>?>?>?>?>?>?>?>?>?>?>?>?>?>?>?>????>?>?>?>?>?>?>?>?>?>?>?>?>>?>?>?>?>?> Well, Well, that's part three for you.
