Hey guys, long time no update I know. But out of pure spontaneity I decided to write this chapter since I finally have free time on my hands during this Christmas break. Well I don't think this chapter is that good, I don't know if my writing has changed for the worse or better, but guess we'll see. Once again, sorry I haven't updated. Anyways, hope you enjoy :-D
Disclaimer: I do not own Sailormoon and Weiss Kreuz
---Chapter Eleven---
Every part of Usagi's heart screamed it was wrong. But her mind told her otherwise. Usagi sighed and rubbed her temples while glancing around at the dark, gloomy room Schwarz had set up for her.
It was around 9 o' clock and she still couldn't close her eyes for more than a few minutes before shooting up from her bed. Her thoughts were racing; She wondered if the guys were looking for her, if they were worried or not.
Usagi's new responsibility now weighed heavily upon her chest, making it hard to breathe properly. She would have to kill, murder, these strangers who she knew nothing about. But she did know something about them, they had murdered countless innocents her thoughts reminded her. But did that make it right? Usagi sighed and pushed her conflicting thoughts out of reach.
'get some sleep liebchan, we have a long day tomorrow'.
Usagi heard Schuldichs's familiar voice in her head and instantly moaned, "just leave me alone", Usagi mumbled, dropping her head against the pillow.
Usagi could almost feel his smirk, 'as you wish'. And he was gone, hopefully for the rest of the night.
"I wonder what the guys are doing.." Usagi mumbled, her eyes slowly drifting shut, and her mind slipping steadily into sub-consciousness.

Yohji rubbed the rough stubble that lay along his jaw line. "I'm worried about Usagi", he voiced out loud.
"I wonder why she was so upset" Omi too voiced his opinion.
Ever since Usagi ran out of the store, none of them thought really much of it. They all instinctively guessed it was probably just her time of the month. Though she had never acted that way before.
"Well, I think she's ok, when we were growing up she would always get upset around this time a year, but it would go away so I never though much of it. But now that I look back on it, I think I've realized that is was around this time her family died. It's the only explanation I can conclude" Ken explained.
"Well it would explain everything" Yohji stated.
They were all sitting in the living room, the news could be faintly heard in the background. Ran was the only one watching it but it was hard to tell that he was also paying attention to what they were saying.
Ran growled under his breath; He was angry at himself. The reason why was Usagi. He felt guilty for being so hard on her, and as he listened to what Ken said he realized how much of an asshole he must had been to her at that time.
For the first time in years, Ran realized he actually cared about what Usagi thought. That was what was eating him up inside. The fact that he cared for her.
Suddenly the screened changed to show Persia's face. Ran and including everyone else snapped their attention the screen.
"I'm sure you all know why I am here. There is a new mission for you.", Persia stated with authority. Weiss's expressions hardened as they fully concentrated on what Persia was going to tell them on their new mission.
"It has come recently into my knowledge that Schwarz has acquired a new ally. I want you to find out information on this person, he could be detrimental to Weiss. If need be, kill this ally. If this person is sided with Schwarz and can only mean bad things to come. Tomorrow is when you shall proceed with this assignment. Hunters of night, deny these dark beasts their tomorrows!(1)". Persia exclaimed.
Weiss nodded as the screen flipped back to the news, leaving no evidence that Persia had ever been on it.

Usagi yawned as she crawled out of bed the following morning. She could tell by the amount of light pouring in from the window that it must be around 8 or 9 in the morning.
Walking towards the door of her room, he opened it and peaked her head out darting her gaze left to right. Her eyes found only an empty hallway and she walked out relieved.
"I see you've woken" a familiar voice said from behind her.
Usagi screamed, "don't do that, you scared the living daylights out of me", Usagi gasped, her hand on her beating chest.
"I'm sorry liebchen, but you are needed. Today is the day we once in for all get rid of Weiss" Schuldich said.
Usagi's eyes widen a fraction, finally remembering every detail of what happened yesterday; the mission she now had to carry out.
"oh... yeah that", Usagi mumbled.
"no time for chatter, we are needed in Crawford's office to discuss how we will carry it out. I assume you will be transforming into Sailormoon for this mission?", Schuldich turned to her as he grabbed her arm and started pulling towards the direction of Crawford's office.
"I'm not sure", Usagi mumbled as they walked down the clearly lit hallway.
Usagi once again was bombarded with doubts, maybe she hadn't made the best decision; maybe she could--
'If you are thinking of escaping, save your energy, you wouldn't have gotten far, don't think I'm not listening to your every thought', Schuldich's familiar voice interrupting her thoughts.
Usagi looked up and glared at him and surprisingly as she glanced up, he wasn't donning his usual smirk. His face actually held a serious look.
"Usagi, I know you don't trust us, but believe me, we aren't the bad guys. Weiss.. Weiss killed my brother", Schuldich's voice strained.
Usagi eyes widened in shock, "I'm so sorry", Usagi said, her eyes turning sympathetic towards Schuldich.
Schuldich head lowered, his bangs covering his face as if to cover his tears. "For 3 years now I've wanted my revenge, but I could never get close enough. But.. with your help Usagi. The lives of innocents such as my brother can be brought to justice", Schuldich looked up and stared into her eyes.
Usagi's gaze steeled as Schuldich's words sunk in. 'yes, I have to bring these innocent's lives to justice' Usagi finally decided.
Schuldich smirked secretly to himself as he listened to Usagi's final thoughts. Manipulating her was a piece of cake.
Upon reaching Crawford's office, they both walked in to be greeted with Farfarello and Crawford.
"he's still missing then?", Schuldich asked, noticing Nagi's absence. Crawford only nodded before turning his attention to the confused Usagi.
"It's a pleasure seeing you again Usagi." Crawford said.
"likewise", Was Usagi's answered, though she wasn't so sure she believed what she had just said.
"We are going to infiltrate Weiss's headquarters, where, you Usagi, will be able to destroy these evil monsters". Crawford said.
"But, before we get too much into that, I would like to give you more information on these Assassins. They all go by codenames; the leader of the group is Abyssinian, the weapon he commonly uses to kill his victims is a katana, then there is Siberian whose weapon is bugnucks, next is Balinese who uses a nearly invisible wire to strangle his victims, and finally there is Bombay who uses various weapons such as darts, guns, and bow and arrows." Crawford explained.
"You expect me to kill four dangerous assassin all on my own?" Usagi asked.
"with our help of course" Schuldich added.
"I don't.." Usagi started.
"Don't worry, we'll be here to watch your back Liebchen" Schuldich said. Schuldich's words calmed her slightly but she still was afraid.
Usagi's mind flashed back to the image of the bloody leftover of a woman ravaged by Weiss, and she reflexively shuddered.
Suddenly a voice of Crawford's phone spoke, "Sir, there seems that there is a breakthrough on sector C".
Crawford's face hardened as he said a command, "give me the camera footage of Sector C".
"Yes sir, right away" the woman's voice replied.
Crawford gaze turned towards his computer screen as it changed so show a camera's view of four men working their way quietly down it's halls.
As Usagi leaned in closer to get a better look, Schuldich pulled her back and into his arms. As Usagi was about to protest, Schuldich leaned forward and covered her lips with his own, silencing her. Before Usagi could get over her shock he pulled back, a smirk, as usual, plastered on his face.
"I thought we should have one last kiss before we go off to battle", Schuldich laughed, winking at her. Usagi glared a punched him in the arm.
Usagi opened her mouth but before any words could come out, Crawford spoke, "Well it seems our little Weiss has come to us".
Farfarello laughed, "The kittens has come out to playy. ".
Usagi frowned at Farfarello's laugh and winced as he licked his weapon.
"I would suggest that you turn into Sailormoon", Crawford added he began heading towards the door with Schuldich close behind.
"Right" Usagi agreed. "Just hold on a second", She mumbled.
Usagi began frantically searching for her brooch. She knew it had to be somewhere, she never left home without it. Usagi sighed out of relief when she finally found it in her back pocket.
Schwarz stood patiently as she pulled it out and cried, "Moon Crystal Power, make up!"(2).
Usagi was enveloped in a familiar lights and colors as she felt her clothes dissolve and replace themselves with her Sailormoon fuku, and for a moment she felt herself spread wings before they disappeared along with the lights and colors.
Usagi opened her eyes to be greeted with 6 eyes staring holes into her.
"what?". Usagi asked.
"Nothing, we must hurry. I'm sure Weiss is already in the building main sector already" Crawford stated, pulling out a gun from his pocket.
"Nice outfit, Liebchen", Schuldich said with a satisfied gaze.
Usagi rolled her eyes as they made their way out into the hallway. Crawford broke out into a run and they all soon followed suit. Usagi ran behind them, following them through a network of halls into they finally came into a clearing.
It appeared to be a lobby with a sparkling fountain in the center of it all. Just then doors burst open to reveal 4 figures.
"I see you finally decided to join us little kittens", Schuldich teased.
Their faces were momentarily shrouded in darkness and she squinted to get a better look. but before they could reply or come any closer, Schuldich's voice shouted in her head to attack.
'well, it's now or never' Usagi decided, taking off her tiara she yelled, "moon tiara magic!" and threw it at one of them.
The one it was heading for jumped swiftly out of the way. As her tiara came back towards her, it nicked another one on the shoulder.
"bitch" he screamed.
Usagi stopped cold, she recognized that voice. Could it be.. Finally their faces came into clear view. Usagi's jaw dropped, no, it couldn't...
---TBC---
Well this chapter pretty much sucks in my opinion lol. but hopefully ya'll liked it. Sorry for any grammatical errors present in this chapter. :-D I'll try to update soon. Don't forget to review, any constructive criticism is always welcome :-D
(1) Persia always says this to Weiss when he gives them assignments on the Weiss Kreuz episodes
(2) This is Usagi's second season transformation moon eternal makeup. I didn't do her last transformation because she left before the events leading up to that transformation ever happened and such. So they never met Rini etc etc
