Nihao. It's me, Kit. I'm doing something stupid. I'm starting
a fic when there are two others that aren't finished yet. I don't
like doing that, but one of them is on hold due to lack of e-mail,
and the other...well, I'm waiting for an update because I'm going
so fast on it and I want everyone to catch up. Anyway, this is a
SM/ Gundam Wing crossover. If some facts are a bit off, don't get
too mad. I always screw up with the storylines. I am going to try
very hard to keep everyone as close to character as I can though, because in
my experience with reading other people's work I find
fics of those nature more realistic. (Yeah, a realistic fic. I
don't think so.) Anyway, I want a lot of feedback on this. If you
have any questions or comments, feel free to e-mail me.


Sister Earth
Prologue

_____________________________________________________________________

    The lights in the restaurant were dim and the music
played softly and romantically. Usagi nervously fidgeted
with her napkin, her heart filled with dread. Something
was wrong. It had to be. Mamoru only took her to nice
places like this when he had something upsetting to tell
her. He thought the atmosphere was better for calming her
nerves and would keep her from making a scene. The truth
was, it was only making her go on the edge. She didn't
like not being able to see clearly what was on her plate,
and the peaceful violins playing were starting to annoy
her beyond all reason.
    "Mamo-chan?" she asked in a small voice. "What's going on?"
    He looked up from the menu. "Going on?" He asked
innocently, his eyes betraying his reluctance.
    "Just tell me now and get it over with."
    He sighed, his plot figured out. "Usako...I don't like
not being in control of my life."
    Usagi nodded. "Am I too controlling?" She asked, voice quiet.
    He smiled. "No, you're perfect. It's fate I don't
like. I have to be careful about what decisions I make,
so I won't mess it up. It's not fair."
    "I see," she said, amazing him with how calm she was.
"So you want to defy destiny?"
    "I want freedom. I got another letter from Harvard.
They still want me, but I don't feel like I should go with-"
    "Me here. I'm holding you back from your dreams, Mamoru,"
she stated, her voice unreadable.
    "Not you. Fate." He sighed and lowered his eyes.
"I don't think we should see each other for a while.
We should let each other have a little time of freedom,
to see what happens. We could always get together again
if it doesn't work out. Usako, I've decided to go to
America, and I know I'm going to be tempted there. I
don't want guilt tugging at me for four years. While
I'm gone, you'll be tempted, too. Guys always fall for
you. I know what almost happened with Seyia. Neither of
us should have these obligations-"
    "Obligation? I'm an obligation?" Her voice rose
slightly with anger and surprise.
    "I'm sorry," Mamoru said.
    Usagi nodded. "So it's over then? Everything we've
had...just gone?"
    "It doesn't have to be a forever thing. This whole
destiny thing makes me feel so old. Knowing my own future?
I want to be young a little longer."
    "Fine." Usagi stood. "Well..." she looked at the
dinner table. They hadn't even ordered yet. All that
was there were glasses of water and a basket of biscuits.
"Thanks for...um, dinner. I need to get home now."
    Mamoru grabbed her wrist as she began to walk away.
"Can we still be friends?"
    "Of course, Mamoru," Usagi said, forcing a smile
despite the fact she couldn't see because of the tears
welling up in her eyes. She was suddenly glad it was so
dark in the restraunt.
    He smiled in relief and released her arm. Usagi left,
and began to run as soon as she was outside. Tears blinded
her vision, and it was a miracle she didn't fall and break
her neck. She soon found herself exhausted and in the park.
She was so tired, emotionally as well as physically. She
numbly curled up on a bench and cried herself to sleep.
    Some time later, she was awakened by a sound. Someone
was near her. She had been so stupid! Why hadn't she gone
home? Now she was going to get hurt even worse then she
already was! She closed her eyes tightly in fear, praying
whoever it was wasn't some drunk or criminal.
    "Koneko-chan?" asked a familiar voice. Usagi sat up.
    "Haruka? What are you doing here?"
    "Taking a walk. It's a beautiful night."
    "Where's Michiru?" It was rare that anyone saw the
senshi of Uranus without her other half.
    "She had a recital tonight. It ran over a little."
    Usagi stood, every muscle in her body protesting.
    "What are you doing out here so late, Usa-chan? You
could get hurt. Parks are dangerous places at night for
pretty girls."
    "I know, but I was too tired to go home. Mamoru broke
up with me," she blurted. New tears began to form.
    "Oh, Koneko-chan." Haruka hugged her friend in sympathy.
Usagi cried for almost an hour, not moving.
    "You can't tell anyone," she said quietly when her
tears had finally quit.
    "Usa-chan?"
    "They all think I'm a big enough baby already. They
can't know I've reacted this badly. You can never tell,
not even Michiru. Promise me."
    "I promise," Haruka said, stunned. She'd never heard
Usagi speak with such resolve. "Come on now, I'm taking
you home."
    The two girls made their way to Haruka's car in silence,
and the ride to Usagi's house was short.
    "Thank you," Usagi said, her throat sore from crying.
    "Any time."
    Usagi walked a few steps, then turned back. "Are you
ashamed of me for crying?"
    "No, Usagi. You're strong, whether you know it or not.
Some people would have done a lot worse."
    Usagi smiled and began to walk away, but stopped when
Haruka called her name.
    "Hey, I made a promise to you, now you make one to me."
    "What?"
    "Promise that you won't let how that baka Mamoru hurt
you affect your sweet spirit."
    Usagi smiled, something that she never thought she
could do again, and held up a victory sign. "I promise!"

To be continued in part one!

~~~~~~


    Hey ya'll, not much to say here. Please tell me what you
think of this. I know the name sucks, but it was the best I
could come up with at the time. I'm going to try to at least
keep the "Gundam Wing" characters as close to their
personalities in the anime as possible, but it's hard,
especially with what I have planned....I think the crossover
part will come in this part. No promises though, 'cause not
even I know how my little non-exhistent mind works. Anyway....
yeah, the voices in my head are telling me to start now.


Sister Earth
Part one


____________________________________________________________________

    Usagi leaned back in the chair she was in, stretching her feet
out in a relaxed position. She and the other senshi were in Rei's
room, making plans. Well, trying to make plans.... Okay, so they
weren't trying to make plans at all. They were joking and having a
good time. They met every day even though there hadn't been a youma
sighting for a year. Now it was just a fun little get-together
between friends when before it had been warriors gathering to plan
the fate of the world.
    Usagi closed her eyes in silent pain. It was the ten-month
anniversary of the day Mamoru had broken up with her. He'd left for
America shortly after that night, but he wrote her letters often,
taking seriously that she had said they could be friends. She never
read his letters or wrote him back, hoping he'd get the picture and
stop writing. So far it hadn't worked. She leaned back further in
the chair, lifting two of its legs off the ground, and listened to
her happy friends around her. None of them had any idea that she
wasn't over Mamoru, and only Haruka knew how bad she'd taken it, but
Usagi didn't mind their ignorance. She didn't want pity. She leaned
back further yet again and the remaining two legs of the chair slid
out from under her and she fell back, hitting her head on the wall.
    The room grew silent as all eyes turned toward the small blonde.
Rei was the first to laugh, then the others. Michiru, shaking her
head and giggling softly, helped her up.
    "Glad you all are so concerned about my safety." Usagi muttered,
rubbing the back of her head.
    "Baka Odango." Rei laughed. "Only you could manage to pull off
a stunt like that," she looked in fondness at her friend. Usagi
grinned, not feeling offended. She had a certain kinship with all
her senshi, invisible ties that bound them together. Out of anyone
in the world, Usagi alone could keep such a group of different people
together. Only she could understand them and the way they acted.
    Speaking of senshi, one was missing. Usagi just noticed, looking
around the room.
    "Where's Puu?"
    The other senshi looked around confused. "Wasn't she here just a
minute ago?" Minako asked.
    "Yeah, she was sitting next to me," Makoto said. "Can't believe
I didn't notice her leave."
    "This could mean trouble," Rei said suspiciously. "If she went
to the time gate..."
    "Right." Ami took out her computer and began to type. Hotaru
looked over her shoulder.
    "No readings of any strange energy levels." The small girl
muttered.
    "Hotaru, I'm sure Ami-san doesn't like you breathing down her
neck," Michiru scolded.
    "It's ok. I'm too distracted to notice."
    "I want to be Ami's assistant."
    Haruka smirked. "Cute."
    "Anything?" Makoto asked, ready for action.
    Ami shook her head and continued typing.
    "You must not be reading that thing right. Let me see," Makoto
tried to catch a glimpse at the tiny computer screen, but after
finding that impossible, she climbed on Ami's back.
    "Mako! Get off!"
    "Lemme see!!"
    "I wanna see, too!" Minako joined herself to the small scuffle.
Ami held her precious computer up out of reach, as the other two
girls tried to get it away. Rei grabbed it.
    "Mako, Mina, cut that out. Everyone knows you're both too stupid
to figure this thing out."
    "I just wanna see!" Minako pouted.
    "No, me! I'll fight you for it!" Makoto challenged.
    Hotaru tried to get out of it, but she was trapped between Ami
and Mako. "Let me outta here!"
    "Hey, let her go!" Haruka jumped into the pile followed by Michiru.
    Ami's eyes narrowed. "Give. Me. My. Computer." She lunged forward,
attacking Rei, and dragging the others with her. Usagi stealthily
pulled out a camera and took a picture. Everyone looked at her and
blinked in either blindness or confusion or both after the flash.
Usagi twirled the camera on one finger.
    "This is going to the editor of the school newspaper if you all
don't stop this," she said calmly. Unexpectedly, a light flashed,
one that wasn't from a camera, and Sestuna was back in the room.
    "Where were you?" Haruka asked tactlessly.
    Sestuna glanced at the pile of senshi and her mouth twitched in
amusement. "Please straighten yourselves out and come with me," she
said semi-normally. The senshi nodded dumbly.
____________________________________________________________________

    The senshi found themselves a few minutes later standing in a
strange palace.
    "What are we doing here?" Rei asked, turning sharply to Sestuna.
    "Shhhh."
    In the shadows stood four people. One was fidgeting as if wanting
to come forward. Another shook its head in exasperation, while a third
gave a little laugh. Only the fourth was perfectly still.
    "We've responded to your distress signal, princess," Sestuna said.
"Can you now please elaborate on your reasons for calling us?" She
frowned. "It isn't just because of *him* is it."
    "No," responded a familiar voice.
    "What's that supposed to mean?" another demanded defensively.
    The first voice spoke again. "My reasons are just, I will explain."
    "Princess Fireball?" Usagi asked.
    The princess stepped out of the shadows smiling. She was followed
by three women dressed in leather. "Hello, Serenity."
    "What's going on?"
    Fireball frowned. "My planet is between yours and another. These
three are pretty much the only naturally inhabited planets in a two
million light-year radius. The other planet is called Earth."
    Minako snickered. "I think you're confused, princess."
    "No. The other planet is a sister planet to yours. It lies in a
galaxy almost identical to your own with a few...minor differences."
    "So..." Ami seemed confused for once. "There's another Earth and
another Sun spinning around in another Milky Way galaxy?"
    Fireball shook her head. "It is in the Snickers galaxy, and its
sun is called Nemesis."
    "Nemesis?" Usagi was suddenly much more interested.
    "Their sun bears no connection to your old enemies. It's purely
coincidental. The reason I called you all is that I sense a great evil
growing in this other Earth, and I fear that if the evil wins there..."
    "It'll win in our Earth, too," Michiru finished.
    "Exactly. Will you senshi go and look into it, please?"
    "Hey, we don't protect the whole universe," Haruka protested.
"We stick to our home turf, and our own missions."
    Makoto jabbed her with her elbow. "We might get into fights in
this world, and think of all the people who haven't seen you race."
    "Never mind, Fireball," Haruka said hastily. "I'm in."
    "Guys?" Usagi asked, turning to face the rest of her team. "It's
up to you, but it sounds like fun to me."
    Usagi wanted to go? That was a first. One by one, the senshi
agreed to go to the mysterious sister Earth.
    "I will send you now. I'm afraid none of you have the power to
go there without my help. Good-bye now. Good luck."
    "Wait!" Starfighter stepped forward. "I wish to go, too."
    "No!" Fireball and Sestuna protested at the same time.
    "I need you here." Fireball explained.
    Sestuna stepped toward the leather-clad warrior. "You are not
meant to be with her," she whispered as she began to shimmer and
disappear.
_____________________________________________________________________

    Things never seem to go right when one is world-hopping. The
senshi landed right in the middle of a battle. Giant robots fought
other giant robots.
    "Did she say slight differences?" Minako asked, paling
considerably. "This looks major to me."
    "We can't fight these things," Makoto said faintly.
    "You guys, get out of here," Usagi said. For some reason, she
was holding her leg. "I'm gonna get me one of those machines."
    "Whaaat?"
    "She's right," Sestuna said wisely. "If she can drive one of
those I can use her memories to get some produced for us."
    "Well, then let someone else go," Rei demanded.
    "I can only use the princess."
    Usagi nodded and ran off. For some reason she looked kind of
funny, but no one put much thought to it because they had to get
out of harm's way.
    Usagi ran until one of the machines caught her attention. It
looked powerful, it was winning, it was what she wanted. With a
strong leap, she was at its door, and forced it open with the
hidden strength that comes with fear. A boy around her age was
inside. He looked at her, surprise barely having time to register
in his black eyes before she yanked him out of the seat restraints
and threw him out of the machine.
    Usagi allowed herself a moment to hope the boy was all right
before strapping herself in and taking the controls. They were
complicated, but not too much so and she had them figured out
quickly. Now to get away from the battle.
____________________________________________________________________

    Deathscythe fought off its enemies easily and quickly, while
its pilot inside laughed. It was good to win, good to be in control.
    "That's what you get for challenging the god of death!" Duo
laughed. Suddenly, something caught his eye on the ground. Wufei
was standing there, waving frantically to him. What was he doing
out of his gundam in the middle of the battle?
    One of Deathscythe's large robotic arms reached down and picked
up the Chinese boy who quickly opened the outside hatch and climbed
into the cockpit.
    Wufei's face was red with anger and he could barely speak
coherently.
    "What's going on, buddy?" Duo asked in his joking manner. "These
enemies too weak for you? Where's your gundam?"
    "Weak...woman...stole.."
    "Huh?"
    Wufei pointed out where his gundam was making its way away from
the battle. "Nataku!"
    "Wha...Where's it going?"
    Wufei finally got his anger in check enough to talk. "She stole
my Nataku! A weak woman stole *my* Nataku!  We have to stop her! Call
the others. We must stop her! She stole Nataku!"
