Prologue:
The pretty nineteen-year-old, Tsukino Usagi, cried out in frustration despite her lack of breath. She had been running continuously for the past half-hour, trying to find the Brat. Okay, so maybe her real name was Chibi- Usa...Usagi still thought that the name of Brat fit her much, much better...
So here she has been, running and running and running in the same deserted areas of the park, trying to locate that little, infuriating spore of a child. It was nearly 9:00, and dark and chilly outside. Usagi wanted to get home, have some huge meal, and then go over to her Mamo-chan's apartment to snuggle up to him. She did NOT want to go around chasing little annoying kids. Besides, shouldn't a girl so young as Chibi-Usa be in bed sleeping by now?
Oh, wait a sec...that's right. Chibi-Usa was over 900 years old. Not exactly what you'd call young.
Usagi silently glowered at the thought. That kid had always been a head- ache to her. And so unpredictable in her actions. One minute the pink- haired child would be the sweet, docile child (though not so young) she was supposed to be. And then the next minute she would be an utter nightmare, who could really get herself, and everyone else, into a very sticky mess. Usagi could recall at least 50 disasters started solely by Chibi-Usa.
And that was exactly why Usagi was running like the fires of hell were at her heels. She had to find that little...terror...before that mischievous soul wound herself up in another dangerous web with her careless actions and nonsensical sense of adventure.
Usagi's breathing was now coming in short, painful gasps, and her legs were starting to greatly wear out. Even with all her years of being Sailor Moon, nothing had prepared her so that she could run like a marathoner for so long.
Suddenly, Usagi's tired legs just gave out. With one last wobbly, unsteady lunge forward, she toppled over onto the ground with a groan. She just lied there for a few minutes, unable to do anything except for take many deep breaths in to fill her oxygen-deprived lungs. When she got her hands on Chibi-Usa.....
Speaking of, where was that girl? Sure, Usagi had been on her trail for a while now, but she still had had plenty of time to get very far since the time Usagi gave up and landed on the ground, not bothering to use whatever precious energy was left in her to pull herself up. She still had to save some for when she visited her dear boyfriend, Mamo-chan, later.
Usagi unconsciously pulled her hand from her side to lay on her chest, numbly fingering the beautiful pearl ring on her finger. Mamo-chan had given it to her about three years ago, when she had been sixteen, and he was leaving for that trip to America. Of course, he never did get there, for Galaxia had killed him. But no need to relive that, now is there?
She never took that ring off of her finger. It meant everything to Usagi. Mamo-chan gave it to her as a promise ring. It was his promise to her of the future they would have together someday, the family that they would create with each other. She would never take it off for the world. Of course, with that family would come Chibi-Usa, their pesky future daughter, but Usagi supposed she could get used to it. After all, the annoying little child did symbolize their future, love, and forthcoming family. She was cute sometimes, too; heck, even downright adorable! But usually that was not when she was stirring up trouble, like what the danger-attracter was doing now, for instance.
Usagi cursed her future-self. She was way too easy to convince in the 30th century. She wished, wished, WISHED that Chibi-Usa, once she finally left for home three years ago would have actually stayed there, and never have seen Usagi again until the time was right. (*ahem*)
But, naturally that wasn't so. Somehow that weasel managed to convince her mom, A.K.A. Usagi's future-self, to let her go back to the past one last time, to see the "gang" one last time...
Usagi grumbled at the thought.
'Thank you so vvveeeerrrry much, future Usagi!" she called out sarcastically to the clear night sky.
Usagi's off track thoughts (not that there was anything knew with that, or anything) somehow managed to get back to the original question of where Chibi-Usa was and what she was doing right now. God only knows...and Usagi, personally, did not want to be let in on the bit of information.
Usagi grudgingly knew that she would have to find her eventually, though, and bring her back home, where she should have never run away from to begin with, even if it was just in a burst of her youthful (or ancient) playfulness and need for constant action. With that thought, Usagi slowly pulled herself up from her quite comfortable resting position on the grass, and slowly ambled through the beautiful park scenery, cloaked in the gorgeous shadows of the night and dancing beams of light from the moon.
She looked up at the moon and smiled. She thanked the moon. If she had never had her life on the moon, she would have never had Mamo-chan.... Boy, did she love that man of hers...so handsome...so sexy...such a good kisser...and a gentleman on top of everything else....
And at that very moment, interrupting her wonderful thoughts, the trouble started, and she knew very well who started it. After all, Chibi-Usa was the Queen of All Troubles. Not to mention, the high-pitched, childish giggles that Usagi knew so well that preceded the event next to come could have only belonged to her.
Those familiar giggles, as was mentioned, flitted through the air lightly, reaching Usagi's ears. The joyous yet completely mischievous tone of the giggles sent shivers down Usagi's spine. She could not help but feel apprehensive at what was next to come, for something Chibi-Usa found amusing surely could not be something that was safe, particularly for Usagi. No, nothing Chibi-Usa ever did for fun ended happily for her. Within the next minute, Usagi noticed a bright, white sparkle form somewhere off in the distance. She watched it with curious eyes, not knowing what it was or what was going on. As the pinpoint of light grew, and floated up high into the sky, Usagi suddenly found herself being overcome with worry. This could not be good....
Usagi chocked out a desperate cry as the minuscule glitter soon flared up violently in just a few short seconds. Her body shook with as fear and trepidation took her over. The light seared in the sky, growing larger and brighter by the second. Usagi found herself running, her face pale and frightened, in no real direction, just wherever her feet would take her.
"Chibi-Usa?!" she suddenly screamed into the night-time air, still except for the tremors emanating from the fiery ball that was quickly taking over the sky, casting a spooky, supernatural glow over everything within the vicinity.
"Chibi-Usa!" Usagi shrieked in a shaky voice, laced with pure fearfulness. "Chibi-Usa!" she repeated, even more desperately.
Usagi was hardly able to comprehend what was going on as the roaring light become larger still. She just knew that whatever was going on had to do with Chibi-Usa, someway or another.
She stopped her frantic running, and slowly turned to face the source of the light which now encompassed everything around her in its ghastly, abnormally bright glow. Her breathing, as odd as it was, slowly returned to normal, even as the searing flashes from whatever threatened her caused the air around her to become hot and heavy on her body.
"Damnit," she rasped. "Damnit," she repeated. And then with one last breath, she shouted out, "DAMNIT, CHIBI-USA! WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?!"
Just as the last syllable escaped her lips, the blinding, fiery light roared and flared up again, closing in on her and nearly crushing her with the force of its searing power. Everything around her dissolved in the frightening white of the object.
For a few seconds, Usagi thought she was dead. She couldn't feel, hear, or see anything. She was just suspended there oddly. Was she even standing, or was she somehow floating? She just didn't know. Everything was deathly still and quiet around her.
In one last, quick flash of light, everything around her was quickly plunged into darkness.

So.how was it? Good, bad, pointless? Probably pointless, I have the tendency to ramble on, or at least my English teacher believes so. Huh. They're so picky. Anyway, this is just the prologue, I'm sure you realized, and I'm planning much, MUCH more. The next chapter will be a lot funnier, and it'll probably be out in maybe two or three days (it is the weekend, you know) so I suggest you check back, if you like it that is ^_^; I hope you did! Speaking of.might be nice to get some reviews there. Or e-mail I appreciate a lot too! ^_^ Ja ne till next time, minna!
