Hello minna! This can be considered my first attempt at a Sailormoon fanfic, so please be kind! I guess you could say that this story takes place after Sailormoon R, but I've made some storyline changes that you'll find out later on! Another thing is that I made Usagi-chan 15 instead of 14, for my convenience.
Coming Home
Prologue
By Moon Peach
***
She couldn't believe it had been ten years, ten long years since she last saw her friends and family. Yet here she was sitting on an airplane, just over an hour away from landing in Tokyo. Only her parents knew she was coming, she didn't even know if she should contact her friends once she settled in. Glancing at the sleeping girl beside her, Usagi sighed to herself "So much has changed in ten years."
Her stomach was twisting in knots, a feeling she hadn't felt since she first left home. Looking out the plane window, the clouds began to break and she could make out the land below. A strange feeling of excitement came over Usagi as she gazed onto the country that held her heritage. Memories flashed through her mind about the last time she saw this view.
"Naru-chan, what's America like?" a then fifteen year old Usagi asked as she watched Japan become smaller and smaller. It was her first time on an airplane and despite all the emotions running through her body right now, she couldn't seem to tear her eyes away from the window.
"I don't know, I've never been to America, but I'm glad you're coming with me Usagi-chan." Naru answered as she reached over and squeezed her best friend's hand. Usagi turned towards the redhead in the seat beside her and gave a brave little smile then directed her eyes back out the window.
"Oh Naru" a now twenty five year old Usagi whispered, biting back the tears forming in her eyes. "Where are you to hold my hand now?"
Usagi absently began to stroke the strawberry blonde hair of the girl in the seat next to her, outside the land became closer and closer. Above her, the seatbelt light suddenly flicked on and the stewardess' voice came on over the announcement system.
"Attention passengers, the captain has just switched on the seatbelt light. We will begin making our descent into Japan and expect to arrive at Narita Airport in fifty five minutes."
"Too late to change our minds now, eh Mitsu-chan?" Usagi asked towards the seat beside her, but naturally she got no response. Clicking her seatbelt into place, Usagi leaned back in her seat and tried to ignore the pain in her ears as the plane began to drop.

I know the prologue was super short! It's just to get the ball rolling though, chapter one will be much longer (I hope). Please review and let me know what you think!
