Author's notes and disclaimer: How many times have I said this?! I do NOT own Sailor Moon! This story was first published on my website, http://www.geocities.com/iamsailorearth , but it originally had a few pictures, so I've tried to describe the important one's in brackets. If you want to see with pictures, please visit my site! *Sailor Earth*
LUNA'S DIARY
17th December
Today was the last day of term! The girls have been looking forward to this break for ages. I haven't. I can tell you, this is no holiday for Artemis and me, what with five boy-obsessed, shop-addicted teenage girls to look after! Talking of shops, there is a party being held at Crossroads Junior High on Christmas Eve, so the girls dragged us off to help them buy their outfits this afternoon. They tried on loads of outfits...
...And Rini, Mina, Lita and Amy didn't have too much of a problem choosing anything. However, it was another story for Serena and Raye. They may argue all the time, but sometimes they can just be SO alike.
(Serena tries on a puffy green and white dress)
SERENA: "Hmmm, do I look like a cauliflower?"
RINI: "you always look like a cauliflower."
SERENA: "I do NOT!"
(Raye appears from the cubicle in a v. posh red suit and a top hat)
LITA (tactfully): "Uh, Raye, I hate to tell you this, but, well, urm, we're not actually going to a wedding."
RAYE: " Yeah, I don't like the colour either."
AMY: "But you always wear red."
RAYE: " I don't think this particular shade suits me. It clashes with my eyes."
ALL: "Huh?!"
(Then Serena models a beautiful sleeveless red kimono.)
RAYE: "Serena, you look great! Too bad that…I saw it first!"
SERENA: "No fair, Raye, it looks way better on me!"
RAYE: "Does not!"
SERENA: "Does too!"
RAYE: "It SO does not!"
MINA: "Er, I hate to interrupt guys, but there are other outfits too, y'know."
That was when Serena started to cry. "I hate you Raye…" she bawled. You know what she can be like sometimes. Just at that moment Artemis came dashing in, knocking Serena straight into a clothes rail. "What on Earth is going on?" he asked. No one answered him. We were all too busy watching Serena with amazement. Her sobs had disappeared, and she was gazing across the store at a beautiful silk dress.
"You can't afford THAT!" I told her, but she wasn't paying any attention. Before you could say "Moon Crystal Power" she'd grabbed it off the rail and was waltzing around, with it held to her. "Ooh, Darien will think I'm the most beautiful girl ever!" she squealed.
"And how much does it cost, exactly?" asked Amy, jerking Serena out of her daydream.
"Aah yeah…" She looked set to cry again. "Its, its 1200-yen!"
"Hang on Serena…"
"No, don't say it Lita, I could never choose a different one now, this dress is part of my soul, it's love at first sight!"
"Shut up Serena, look ov-"
"Mina! You're supposed to be sympathetic! After all, you ARE the scout of love and beauty!"
"And if you'd just listen, I could tell you that you may be able to buy the dress!"
"Pardon?"
"Did you get it off that rack? Can't you see the sign? It say's SALE - ALL ITEMS 499-YEN!"
Serena blinked.
"Really? You're not just saying that?"
"Of course not!"
"This is absolutely THE best day of my life! I love you!" And with that, she dashed over to the till.
"Aren't you going to try it on first?" asked Raye.
"No. I already know it fits."
"How?" "How d'you work THAT one out?!"
To cut a long story, well, slightly less long, Serena bought the dress, and as luck would have it, it did fit in the end.
So, now I'm very exhausted and going to have to stop writing. Good night xxx
