Disclaimer: What? You thought I owned Sailor Moon? Ha! I didn't think
so... Yes, this is just a fanfic. The original characters and story
all belong to Naoko Takeuchi, with the exception of any new
characters inserted by yours truly.
Rating/Warnings: Somewhere between PG and PG-13 for Haruka/Michiru
references. Nothing big, but I thought I'd give a warning anyway. If
the idea of Haruka showing interest in a guy makes you see red, you
probably won't like the story.
Summary: Long ago during Silver Millennium, each of the Sailor
Princesses ruled over her own planet, protecting Queen Serenity and
her young daughter from danger. And protecting each princess was a
knight: one sworn to guard and protect her no matter what. Though the
two of them were never required to marry each other, it seemed like
destiny as the princesses fell more in love with their protectors
each day.
So Artemis tells the story. But if it is true, then each of the girls
should also have a person they are destined for in the present time.
As spring blooms and romance is in the air, this seems to be coming
true for everyone... except Haruka.

A Knight for Uranus: Chapter 4

The next morning, Haruka woke to the phone b-r-r-r-ringing in her
ear. She yawned and turned to stare at the wretched machine. Alarm
clocks were bad enough. Couldn't it have a nice sound, like a
babbling brook or something of that nature?
"Haruka!" Michiru called out from the kitchen. "Do you think you
could get the phone? I've got my hands full with breakfast!"
"Sure thing!" Haruka called back, her hand already on the receiver.
Sluggishly, she brought the device up to ear.
"Hello?"
"Haruka, hi! It's me Taylor."
"Taylor?" Haruka questioned. She glanced over at the clock. It was
6:45am. "Why are you calling me now?"
"Oh no, did I wake you?" Taylor asked apologetically. "Geez, I guess
I must have, I'm sorry. I was just heading out to go fishing, I
thought you might like to come with me. It's on that same lake we
were at last night after dinner." Haruka thought it over. She hadn't
gone fishing in ages, she hoped that she remembered how. Michiru said
it was inhumane and perhaps it was, but Haruka was of the mindset
that if the species was plentiful and one ate everything they caught,
there was no harm to be had in it.
"Haruka, are you still there?" Taylor's voice came in on the line.
"Oh yes," said Haruka. "Sorry about that, I guess I'm still tired.
But, yeah, I'd love to come with you."
"Cool!" said Taylor enthusiastically. "I'll pick you up in like half
an hour, okay?" Pick ME up? Haruka thought to herself with a smile.
He needs to learn more about me, if he thinks I go anywhere when I'm
not the driver.
"Do you know where I live?" she asked Taylor. The silence following
her questioned answered it for her.
"Guess not," Taylor said, embarrassed.
"Tell you what," said Haruka. Give me twenty minutes and directions
to your place, and I'll pick YOU up, how's that?"
"Okay, that works for me. See you in twenty then. Good-bye."
"Good-bye." Haruka set down the receiver. Did she just make a date?
No, fishing was probably not on the list of places that dates go. But
in either case she wanted to hurry and get ready, else have to eat
her own words when she arrived at Taylor's.
A few minutes later, Michiru came into Haruka's room to tell her that
the morning meal was ready. "Okay, get up, sleepy head," she said,
opening the door. But much to her surprise, she found that Haruka was
not only out of bed but also dressed and ready to walk out the door.
"What's all this about?" she asked.
"Oh," said Haruka turning around. She seemed embarrassed to have
Michiru standing there. "Um, that was Taylor on the phone. He wanted
to know if I could go fishing with him today." Haruka kicked
nervously at the ground, like a little kid asking their parents'
permission to go outside and play with their best friend. "Do you
mind?" Haruka asked. Michiru answered her with her same warm and
friendly smile.
"Of course not, Haruka. Have a good time today."
"Thanks," said Haruka and she quickly went about gathering up the
items she would need for the day and raced out the door, leaving the
house empty. Michiru sat quietly down. "Suppose I should get ready
for the day myself," she pondered aloud. But before she could get
started, she Michiru noticed her communicator going off. She picked
it up and pressed the top of it where the symbol of Neptune was
engraved on.
"This is Michiru," she said.
"Michiru!" came Rei's voice on the other line. "Oh, thank goodness we
got through to you. Where's Haruka?"
"Not here," Michiru answered.
"Yeah, she's not answering her communicator," said Rei. Michiru went
and glanced into the bedroom. Haruka's communicator sat lying on the
nightstand. Michiru sighed. Perhaps Haruka had not wanted to get it
wet, but in all probability, she had simply forgotten it in her
haste.
"We've got a new enemy here," Rei continued, interrupting Michiru's
train of thought. "How soon can you arrive?"
"I'll be there in a few minutes," Michiru answered and she turned her
communicator off. It felt awkward to run off to a battle without
Haruka at her side. It reminded her of when she and Haruka first met,
and she was the only one who had accepted her duty as a Sailor
Soldier. Haruka was still chasing after the wind then. But that was
part of who Haruka was, Michiru supposed, always stubborn and wanting
to go her own road. She hoped it didn't become a regular occurrence,
running off to battle like this alone.
