Disclaimer: I don't own sailor moon and never will so don't bug me. Azure is mine © and the name is from a good new friend.

Dark was all that could be said about this day. Mothers kept their children in and prayed safely for their return. It seemed to be no good coming from this day at all. But all was not loss. A young woman about the age of 16 ran through the empty streets. Her dark red hair was help by a dark green barrette. Her beautiful emerald eyes glittered with worry. Her toned muscles were shown through the slits from the dark leather she wore.

"Almost there." She chanted to herself as she continued to run. She was oblivious to the dark shadow that followed her form. The girl ran on and sighed in relief when she saw the small wooden house ahead. There was a cluster of trees that seemed to be protecting the house and all that seek sanctuary inside of it. The girl nearly cried out in happiness, as she was only feet away from away.

The shadow slowly drew back from her figure as she got closer and closer to the holy ground. "Makoto." The shadow breathed out, as it's voice floated on the wind. The darkness did not recede, but showed rage as it stormed and rained down everywhere. The shadow did recede though and took one last glance at the girls' refuge before disappearing into the darkness.

"Makoto."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~*0*~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The girl sat in the tub thinking to herself. Her pale skin was very unnatural, as was her height. She was the tallest girl in the village and her bright emerald eyes did not help at all. She was often stood out much to her dislike in a crowd. She chewed on her bottom pale pink lips as she soaked in the tub and let her wavy locks fall around her. 'What was that?' She pondered to herself for there was no one to here her. After a while of starring into space she decided to get out of the tub.

She pulled herself up with long and elegant fingers. Her hair clinged to her curvy form as she wrapped a towel around herself. She walked out of the small bathroom into a larger room with a bed covered in by pink cotton blankets and pillows. A dresser and bookcase lined the walls. A mirror stood in the corner and showed the storm that was outside from her window. The girl sighed at the storm and walked to the dresser and pulled out a green lace-sleeping gown with short sleeves and went to her ankles. She put on her under wear and pulled the gown over her head. She then walked over to the bookcase that held mostly books and other personal items. She picked up a wooden brush and proceeded to comb her hair. She walked over to her bed after combing out all of the tangles from her hair and grabbed the dark green barrette and put it in her hair.

"Why? Why did you come back?" Makoto asked aloud as she let her mind settle off to sleep. But she did not know that it would be just a reminisce to her tragic past.

~~~~~~~~8D Flashback 8D~~~~~~~ A young girl the about the ago of 6 ran through the forest. Her red hair flew behind her and was bound by dark green ribbon. She wore a green sundress that tied around her neck and went to her knees. She giggled happily as she chased after the white bunny. Her parents called for her to come beck, but she was to caught up in the chase to pay them any mind.

Her pace slowed after a while when she saw the change of scenery. The trees were not so vibrant and lively like the ones she lived by. These trees were drab and life less and there were no birds to be found. The girl whimpered as she walked down the crooked path. She saw the white bunny just ahead of her. She followed him for awhile as he jumped just ahead of her so she could not grab him.

The girl looked up as she saw the bunny jump on a brilliant tree with bright greens and golden leaves. It was huge and pulsed with energy that drew the girl to her, but that was not all. On the lowest branch sat a man. 'Pretty!' The girl thought in her child like mind. His dark brown hair was a mixture of curls and waves. He looked at her as he jumped from the brach and walked over to her. His hair tumbled over his chest as he tossed a lock lazily over his sholder. He wore black pants and was barefoot like her. He smiled at the girl who was about the height of his knee. He had dark skin and beautiful brown eyes with tints of gold in them. He bent down infront of the girl and held out his hand.

"You are pretty." The girl said and the man. He blinks and looked down at the girl and then started to laugh. The girl only looked at him and the hand he offered. 'Mom said don't talk to strangers. But he is to pretty to be a stranger.' The girl thought to herself in her silly logic. She took his hand, which stopped his laughter.

"So are you little one. So can you tell me your name?" He asked the girl as he started to walk and held her chubby little fingers. The girl was a bit hesitant to tell him her name and just looked down. "Oh you do not have to fear me little one I would never hurt you. I will tell you my name first. It is Nephrite." Nephrite said hopping he had gained her trust. The girl smiled and looked up at him.

"Makoto, but my friends call me Mako-chan. will you be my friend?" Makoto asked and Nephrite smiled at her. How could he not be nice to this sweet girl? He picked her up and twirled her around. She giggled and grabbed a lock of his hair. Nephrite just grinned and held her in his arm as she continued to grab his strand of hair. Nephrite started to walk out of the woods and listened to Makoto talk about her parents and friends.

She was such a beautiful girl. He could tell she would be breath taking when she was older. He felt happiness when he was with this little girl. She had found a place with him when she called him pretty. That was a first ever and he was very amused when he heard her say it. He knew that he had to have this girl and whatever happened he would return from her. He wanted to take her now, but he knew that he had to defeat a threat that was challenging him.

Makoto was so happy. The pretty man was going to take her to her parents and come and play with her again someday. She was so happy and could not wait to tell Minako about the pretty man. She looked and saw the bunny following the man. "Is that your bunny Neph-chan?" Makoto asked innocently not giving him the proper formalities.

Nephrite was brought out of his day dreaming when he heard Makoto's sweet voice. Nephrite looked and saw that Azure was following them. Nephrite moved Makoto's chubby arm from around his sholder to make room for the small bunny. "He was, but I will give him to you Makoto. You take care of him till I return and play with you again." Nephrite said as she looked to see she had entered the formilar part of the woods. Nephrite sat her down and put Azure in her arms and smiled at her. "Till I return." He said and gave Makoto a peck on the lips and left. Makoto watched him walk away and then started to walk toward town.

Makoto had gotten scolded for running off, but her parents easily forgave her. They reluctantly let her keep the bunny, because she insisted that 'Neph-chan' would come back for it and they would play again. The years past and Makoto turned 8 and her parents had died and she had moved to the house in the woods that her parents always wanted. She always believed that one day Nephrite would return for her, but when she turned 13 she had given up and took care of herself. She was tiered of living off of her parents friends hospitality.

She was 16 and had lost Azure and felt terrible. The white bunny with large blue eyes always comforted her. She had gotten over it and knew that he would return to her one day. She now had to deal with the darkness that always seemed to surround her sense her 16th birthday. She just wised that the 'pretty Neph-chan' she now believed that she dreamed up was real.

~~~~~~~End Flashback~~~~~~~

Makoto opened her eyes and awoke from her state of being in and out of sleep. She often did that lately. She now had no one to comfort her sense Azure had left her. All she wanted is to be normal and happy. But that was not permitted for her.

~~~~~~~~~~$-$~~~~~~~~~~

It was a cold night after the brutal storm. A lone figure walked out in the storm. It was a boy with snow-white hair and bright azure eyes. He stumbled through the roots and weeds. He was covered by a leather pants and a thin white shirt. He had been walking for days and still he had never reached his destination. He sighed as he walked through the sticky and murky swamp. He walked and walked and finally he was at his destination.

A large house covered in vines stood before him. He smiled and started to toward the house. The boy of 12 knocked on the door and waited for someone to answer the door. He jumped from one foot to another till the door opened. In front of him stood a tall man with dark brown hair and brown eyes. His eyes softened when he saw who it was at the door.

"Azure you heard my call." The man said and smiled and moved aside to let him in. The boy walked in and let the man give him the coat he was wearing. He nodded his thanks and sat on the dark crimson chair.

"Nephrite I am glad to see you return safely. But I do not believe you completed your mission. Something is hunting Makoto and I do not know what it is." Azure said in absolute seriousness. Nephrite sat on the oak table and bowed his head. Azure waited patiently for him to respond.

Nephrite slowly rose and his head and growled. Azure looked unimpressed as he saw Nephrites gold eyes and fangs that protruded from his lips. "So it seems that my 'brothers' have returned and come to attack my mate." Nephrite spates out with disgust and rage in his voice. Azure just smiled and patted Nephrite on his back.

"You let your anger rule you my friend. Did you ever think that they wanted to seek you out by messing with your chosen?" Azure asked innocently acting his age for once. Nephrite let out a laugh and his eyes returned to normal and his fangs retreated. "So I suggest that you go and get her before they do. The spell I put on the house will only last so long." Azure said returning to his serious tone.

Nephrite stood up and started for the door. He opened the door and started to walk out. He was a few feet from the house and noticed that Azure was not following him. He turned back to the house and saw Azure sitting on the chair and frowning. "We need to go NOW!" Nephrite exclaimed, but Azure did not move. Nephrite started to get frustrated when the boy spoke.

"You never did tell me why you left me with her. Tell me now Nephrite my spell will hold." Azure said calmly and watched as Nephrite slowly sat down. He should have known this was coming and wanted to strike himself for not.

"When I left you to watch over her I had to finish some business." Nephrite said thinking back to the battle all those years ago.

The air was stale in the wastelands and there were few living beings to see there. But those who lived were no mortals and one could easily tell. A lone figure stood facing 3 others. The lone ones dark wavy blew around as the wind played with it. His eyes were a brilliant gold and contrasted with his dark skin of copper. He stood at a tall 8 feet and his muscles were taunt. These features were pretty normal human features, but that was not all he posed. Long claws of gold stood long against his side. Large gold wings with dark red in the inside were drawn close to his body. His fans were drawn in an intimidating notion. He stood with no clothing, as did the other men.

The tallest of the three stood infront and took his place as leader. He had long and strait stands of silver hair and hard gray eyes. He had large wings of dark gray with a lighter inside. He stood at 9 feet and had Long gray claws. He was blank faced and did not bear fangs, but a dark gray tail.

The shortest of the men was a blond with his hair cropped short and piercing blue eyes. He stood at 6 feet and 5 inches. He had blue skin and shot blue claws. He had pointed teeth and was smirking at the brunette. He had large wings of dark blue with a lighter inside.

The last man stood in the back surrounded by cherry blossoms. He looked the most human standing at 7 feet. He looked most feminine out of all of the 4. He had beautiful and wavy blond hair and lime green eyes. He had pale skin and large elf like ears. He had long green nails and toenails. He had no wings, but just floated.

"So you have returned from your refuge Nephrite." The green-eyed male spoke out. Nephrite only snarled at him and the short haired blond laughed out.

"There is no reason to be upset Nephrite. We will not hurt your 'claimed one'." The short haired blond said in an amused tone. "If." He said and stopped laughing and suddenly became serious.

"Don't you dare lay your hands on her Jadeite." Nephrite snarled in rage. The silver haired man took this time to speak up when he saw the brunette ready to attack.

"We will not hurt us id you join with us. You must know we have taken away her parents and that could be her 'brother'." The silver haired male said in monotone.

"You will not touch a hair on her head Kunzite neither will Zoicite or Jadeite. I will not do this anymore 'brothers'. WE CAN NOT COUNTINUE DOING THIS ANYMORE!" Nephrite yelled out and the sky seemed to change with his growing rage.

"Nephrite there is no reason to be upset. We will give you time to review our offer, but know this. We will go to ALL measures to make sure we fulfill OUR destiny " Zoicite said and disappeared in a furry of cherry blossoms. Jadeite and Kunzite flew away and left Nephrite alone. When Nephrite was sure they were gone he let out an ear-piercing yell.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~!O!~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"And that is all." Nephrite said as he finished his tale. Azure sighed and stood.

"If what you say is true we have very little time. Let's hope the fates are on our side my friend." Azure said as he started to walk for the door and Nephrite followed behind him.

"Thanks for telling me now." Nephrite said and let amusement leak out of his voice. Azure smiled innocently and it would have worked, if Nephrite did not know him so well he would have fallen for it. "That will not work." Nephrite said and Azure laughed into the night. They were off, but would it be too late to save Makoto?

~~~~~~~~#_#~~~~~~~~

Makoto jumped out of her bed at the knocks on the door. Who could be up so late? She thought as she fumbled across her rug to get to the door. She opened the door and prepared to yell when her eyes grew large. She took a step back in surprise and started to fall to the floor when a strong arm caught her. Makoto closed her eyes and hoped she was dreaming. But something told her this was not a dream and it was very real.

"Makoto."

Okay that is exactly 4 pages. Well I am evil for the cliffhanger. Don't you wonder what will happen? Who is this shadow? Who is with Makoto? What is with Azure? What do Nephrites 'brothers' want to achieve? Well you will see soon!
