She's The King
Chapter 6- Out of Bubblegum
As the night went on Usagi grew tired and decided to go to bed. Her worries about Rei's whereabouts were finally put to rest. However, the blonde still could not find peace even in her dreams.
"Rei!" Usagi shouted while running towards Rei in her Usagi reached Rei she wrapped her arms around the raven-haired girl. To Usagi's surprise her embrace was coldly rejected as Rei pushed off of her.
"Get off of me Usagi. We can't do this."
"But why not Rei?"
"Because…." Rei stopped her sentence and looked at the blonde, guiding her to a table and two chairs nearby. "Lets have a seat shall we?"
As the two girls sat down four cards appeared between the fingers of Rei. Usagi could only see the back of the cards.
"Pick a card and tell me the picture you see when you flip it around." Rei commanded.
Usagi picked a random card and observed the image closely. "A picture of Mamoru holding me."
"Now pick another card Usagi."
Usagi continued the cycle and called out the last three cards.
"Prince Endymion and Serenity on the Moon Kingdom"
"King Endymion and Neo Queen Serenity ruling Crystal Tokyo"
"Mamoru and I with Chibiusa"
When there were no more cards in Rei's hands she balled her fingers in a fist for an added effect.
"As you can see….every one of those cards has a version of you and Mamoru in them. We aren't in the cards princess. I'm sorry but we can't be together." After her statement Rei stood up from the table and walked away. When Usagi tried to follow her she was stopped by a hand to the chest.
"Don't follow me." Rei said with an icy chill as she placed her hand on the ground, making an invisible line between her and Usagi. When she was finished fire appeared from that invisible line dividing her and the blonde. The fiery dividing line kept stretching across as the flames rose. The extreme heat caused Usagi to step back. She watched as Rei continued to walk away from her.
"Rei don't leave me!" Usagi shouted.
Rei turned to look at the blonde. She then pointed to Mamoru who appeared behind Usagi.
"It's your destiny to be with him Usagi. Make it work."
Luna then appeared right beside Usagi and commented. "That's right Usagi. Remember that destiny will win over all "other" possibilities every time."
"Usako…." Mamoru placed his hand on Usagi's shoulder. "Let her go. She can take care of herself."
"No! Rei come back! Don't leave me!"
"Make it work Usagi." was the last thing Rei said before she disappeared into the distance.
The words, "make it work" ran continuously through Usagi's head as she could hear the voices of Rei, Luna, and Mamoru chanting them. When Usagi attempted to cross the same path as Rei again the flames burned hotter. She tried once more to call out to her.
"Rei please come back to me! Rei!"
Usagi abruptly woke up from the nightmare. She then reached for her communicator.
A sleepy Rei could be seen through the communicator rubbing her eyes and yawning. "This is Sailor Mars speaking. What's the situation?"
"Rei…."
"Usagi? What's going on?"
"I…..wanted to see if you were still here."
"What?! Usagi you woke me up at 1:45 a.m. just to see if I was "still here"? What does that even mean anyway? You know I'm here. I spoke to you earlier remember?"
"I know but I just had to check again."
"Well I'm here and I made it back to the shrine. You should get some rest. We have that meeting tomorrow at 2 p.m. at the arcade."
"Alright I will. Rei?"
"Yes Usagi?"
"I-"
"You….?"
"I…like your pajamas."
"So you woke me up to see if was still here and to say you like my pajamas? Thanks. Goodnight Usagi."
"Goodnight Rei."
Usagi had seen her in those pajamas plenty of times in truth. However for the first time she was focused on the curves of the person who was inside of those pajamas. The thought of Rei's body made her smile but she wasn't quite sure why. Regardless, Usagi was able go back to sleep somewhat peacefully now knowing that Rei had not left.
Rei was the first to arrive at the arcade. She was early so she decided to go back to the game she played to relieve her stress a couple of days ago. The game's broken oversized hammer was replaced with a new one. She then raised the new hammer in the air only to be stopped by another hand grabbing the object.
"I hope you aren't angry this time."
Rei look back and saw Motoki.
"Why would I be angry?" she asked.
"Because when you're angry you tend to break equipment. I'll let it slide this time though. If I were to "love someone I couldn't have" then I would be pretty upset too. Usagi is a beautiful girl with a great heart. How could you not love her?"
Rei was in shock. "How….did you know about that?"
"I work the security cameras too. When I saw the broken equipment I looked back at the tape to see what happened and saw you speaking to Mina and then running out. Plus with the way you look at Usagi it's pretty obvious."
"Gosh even you see it too? What else do you know about me?"
"I know a lot about you and the senshi….Sailor Mars. I've overheard some of the conversations and watched a lot of security tapes over the last few years. I know about the Moon Kingdom and Crystal Tokyo along with many other things. I also know who Chibiusa really is."
For some reason his statements did not shock Rei this time. After all he does work there so it's was only a matter of time before he would have found out anyway.
"So you know how bad this hurts me Mototki?"
"I think you should tell her Rei."
"Tell her? If you know about the Moon Kingdom, Crystal Tokyo, and Chibiusa then you should obviously know that it's their destiny to be together! Plus Mamoru is your best friend. Why would you want his heart to be broken?"
"I don't have all the answers Rei but Mina is right. Usagi is trying way too hard. The way she tries to get Mamoru's attention is almost unnatural. It seems forced in a way. I'm not saying that she doesn't love him but for it to be destiny one would think their relationship should flow more smoothly. Mamoru is my best friend but I have to call it like I see it. Besides why does the future HAVE to be Crystal Tokyo? Why can't it be something else?"
"I don't have all of the answers either Motoki."
"Even though you and Usagi argue like crazy you two have a strong bond that I can even feel. I can tell you two really care for one other and to me personally, you two arguing seems more natural to me than her "loving" Mamoru. Plus, I know Usagi. If anything, she probably has the same feelings for you as well or have at least considered it."
"You know when you say that it almost makes me want to believe you Motoki."
"Well that is just the vibe I'm getting between you too but then again, I am just a simple arcade worker. What do I know?" Motoki smiled at Rei. "After all I'm sure that bandage on your head is just a result of falling down some stairs and totally has nothing to do with fighting a youma right?"
"I would rather fall down a flight of stairs. A youma swinging a shovel at your face isn't much fun."
"I can imagine." Motoki said as he reached into his apron. He pulled out a small bag and gave it to Rei. "Here's a bag of tokens. There are about 100 of them in there. Take it as my appreciation for helping to save the world over the years. Plus you deserve something for that badge of honor on your head."
"Wow thanks Motoki." Rei said as she hugged Motoki. The two saw the rest of the senshi with the exception of Haruka and Michiru enter. Mamoru was also with them.
"I should really get back to work now but I still think you should tell her. You have nothing to lose. I'm sure she will still be your friend even if she decides to stay with Mamoru. She is just that type of person. If you two actually decide to act on your feelings then you can use those tokens to take her out on a free date here. Well it wouldn't be entirely free. You would have to pay for her to eat and I can see that being very expensive. Like you I have no idea where her stomach ends either. Well take care Rei." Motoki laughed as he walked off.
"See you around Motoki." Rei put the bag in her pocket and went to where the senshi and Mamoru were seated. Usagi was the first one to speak to her.
"Hey Rei! Sorry for waking you up this morning.."
"You seem to forget that the communicator is for emergencies only but in this case I'd rather have you use that than to call the phone in the early morning waking grandpa and Yuichiro up."
"What did you call her for Usagi?" Minako asked.
Before Usagi could speak Rei answered for her. "To tell me my pajamas looked nice and to see if I was "still here"."
"Still here?" Minako continued.
"Yes….."still here". Rei replied.
"Okay drop it you two." Usagi stated. "I wanted to make sure that everything was okay with Rei after the youma incident."
Minako grinned towards Rei. "Oh really now?"
"Hey look who is pulling up." Rei said trying to ignore the secret message that Minako was trying to imply.
The senshi and Mamoru turned their heads to see Haruka pulling up with Michiru on her motorcycle. The two parked and spoke to each other quickly before going in.
"Ruka look who is standing beside Usagi."
"Ahhh and I see the prince of Earth is with them too." Haruka said as a mischievous grin grew across her face. "This should be great."
"Haruka I know that look. What are you planning?"
"Oh nothing Michiru…just a little test just to see where Usagi's head is."
"Haruka…."
Haruka looked at her lover with begging eyes and pouted. "Can I please? I promise it will be good. I'm going to need your help though. Come on….for Rei."
Michiru sighed. "Fine….for our Rei."
"Great. All I need you to do is follow my lead and agree with what I say. You will know the cue. Also kind of hint to Rei to not be surprised with what I do."
The two walked into the arcade to meet the others. The rest of the group greeted them.
"Where's Chibiusa?" Ami asked.
"Setsuna came over and took Chibiusa. Hotaru was with her so I'm thinking she spent a night with them." Usagi answered. "I forgot to tell Setsuna that we had a meeting today."
"Setsuna never came home with Hotaru or Chibiusa. She must have taken them out of town." Haruka added. "It's okay though. This shouldn't take long."
Michiru looked at Rei. "Rei could you show me where the napkins are before we start?"
"They are over here. Follow me." Rei said as she guided Michiru. When they got to the napkins Michiru spoke.
"I didn't really need a napkin. I just wanted to tell you that no matter what Haruka does, stay calm and go along with it and observe what happens."
"Huh? What Michiru?"
"Just trust me on this Rei."
The two girls stood back at the table again. Michiru nodded at Haruka. "Okay we are ready now."
"Great. Does anyone have a clue about the new youma we are dealing with?" Usagi asked.
"The only youma we know are out there are Tritus and that woman along with a youma named Vardon." Makoto added. "That must be their master."
Ami looked at Usagi. "Whoever they are they don't seem to be a united force so that's a good thing."
"I wonder where they came from?" Minako pondered.
"I'm not sure but I do know that I want to continue my "dance" with Tritus." Haruka remarked. I want to cut that bastard up for all of the workers he and Fedorion tormented.
Mamoru placed his hand on top of Usagi's. "Usako we will get them."
Usagi looked quickly at her boyfriend giving him a weak smile. "Hai we will Mamo-chan." She then turned back towards the senshi. "So what's the plan?"
Rei felt a pang of sadness at the sight of Mamoru's hand on Usagi's. However this caused her to be direct in her words.
"The plan is we find them, kick their ass, and move on with our lives." Rei said nonchalantly.
Everyone was quiet at Rei's words for a moment.
Makoto finally broke the silence. "She does have a point."
"Sweetie I think we have to have more of a strategy then that." Ami said to her lover. "How are we even going to find them?"
"We will find them by letting them come to us and we will take care of them then." Rei said.
"I'm with Rei on this." Haruka stated.
Rei felt a wind of confidence take over. "I thought we were done with enemies. Galaxia should have been the last one but now these pricks think they can come and take over? Like hell they will!"
"YEAH!" the rest of the group said in unison.
Rei placed her hands on the table. "We are going to take each and every one of those assholes out one by one until they are all gone and we will do this for our princess!"
"YEAH!" the group yelled again.
"Haruka, you seem to have a military disposition inside of you so this should be up right your alley. You like to drive a lot so when you are out and about scan your locations more carefully now and report any sightings you see. Take the rest of the Outers with you if needed. I know you won't have a problem doing that."
"Mam yes mam!" Haruka replied.
"Ami….Makoto, you two spend the majority of your time together now so watch out for any youma sightings in your area and report them immediately!
"You got it!" Makoto said with excitement.
"Usagi…." Rei paused for a moment to look at Mamoru. "Make sure you are able to contact Mamoru at all times after an emergency has been established on the communicator."
"Right Rei!" Usagi stated.
"Sergeant Mina when an emergency HAS been established on the communicator do NOT hold up the line asking questions that have nothing to do with the situation. Do you understand?"
"Mam yes mam!" Minako replied.
Rei looked at her for a minute not entirely convinced.
"You are still going to do it aren't you?" Rei asked.
"Mam yes mam!" Minako replied again.
Rei sighed but couldn't help but to laugh a little bit. "Of course….I should have known. It is you after all. Well just keep it to a minimum okay?"
"Roger that mam!"
"Alright. Are there any questions or comments from any of you?"
"Yes Rei." Haruka said placing her hand on Rei's chin. "When did you get so dominating? I find it very sexy of you to give orders." Haruka's leaned closer to Rei. "I wouldn't mind having you as my commanding officer."
Haruka's gestures slightly caught the raven-haired girl off guard until she realized what Michiru had told her earlier. "This must have been what Michiru was talking about." Rei thought. Before Rei could say anything she felt a hand around her wrist jerk her away from Haruka. The hand belonged to Usagi who was visibly upset.
"Don't you HAVE a girlfriend Haruka?" Usagi asked with anger under her voice. "She's right beside you in case you forgot."
"Yes I do have a girlfriend but we like trying new things. Don't you have a boyfriend Usagi? He's right beside you in case you forgot. Why would it bother you anyway?"
"Well….um….well maybe she doesn't WANT you to eye her up and down like that!"
"Nonsense." Haruka turned her focus back on Rei. "You know I've always found you attractive. I think I should patch you up more often." Haruka slowly leaned in to kiss Rei's forehead but instead her lips met the palm of Usagi's hand.
"No I don't think you should." Usagi stood on front of Rei blocking any access Haruka could get to her. "Rei doesn't want you to kiss her."
Rei looked at Usagi. "I don't?"
"No you don't Rei."
"It looks like I don't then Haruka." Rei said slightly confused.
"That's a shame. You could have had something special going on with Michiru and me."
Mamoru decided to change the subject to calm Usagi down. "That's a nice motorcycle you have out there Haruka."
"Thanks Mamoru." Haruka said.
"I've heard that people have been racing against you left and right lately. I may be one of the few who haven't raced you yet. I drove my motorcycle over here and it is parked just around the corner."
"Are you implying something Earth prince?"
"Not at all Miss Tenoh. I'm just saying that I have a motorcycle. You have a motorcycle. I like going fast on my motorcycle. You like going fast on your motorcycle."
"Is that a challenge my Mamoru?"
Mamoru grinned. "Those are just a couple of statements that when you put them together could constitute a challenge."
"Well you know me I will never turn down a challenge so if it's a race you want then you got it."
"I thought you would never ask." Mamoru looked as Usagi. "Usagi would you like to ride?"
"No thanks. I think I will stay here while you two act like a couple of frat boys." Usagi replied.
Makoto and Ami's attention seemed divided as they were feeding each other fries that they ordered. This annoyed Minako.
"I will ride with you Mamoru….I need some fresh air." Minako said.
Haruka looked at her girlfriend. "And will the great Michiru be riding with me?"
Michiru smiled. "Of course I will ride with my girlfriend….even if she is acting like a frat boy."
"Rei why don't you come help us out by being the judge?" Haruka asked.
Rei looked at Usagi again. "Am I allowed to?"
"Sure but Haruka if you try to kiss her again…"
"Relax my kitten. I'm not going to try and kiss your precious Rei again." Rei saw the message in Haruka's smile. She knew what the racer was doing. Rei was actually shocked at Usagi's reaction.
"Mamoru you issued the challenge so where would you like to be beaten at?"
Mamoru explained the route he wanted to take. The course was approximately 100 miles.
"Well if that's the course you would like to take then what are we waiting for? Lets go tux." Haruka said.
Haruka and Mamoru walked out with their respective racing partners and got on their motorcycles. Rei stood at the beginning of the stoplight with her arms out to her sides while both motorcycles pulled up behind the line. The engines could be heard revving up throughout downtown. Everyone knew to move out of the way.
"Are you two ready?" Rei asked.
Both racers nodded.
"Alright then GO!" She moved her arms down and soon after felt the wind of the motorcycles, leaving only Usagi, Ami, and Makoto behind in the arcade.

Author Notes:
The more I think about this story, the more I get excited. It was weird typing "Motoki" since I'm used to the dubbed name Andrew but I'm getting over it. Rei's sudden warrior-like attitude was slightly inspired by a Far Cry 3 trailer. I really want that game.
