"What do you plan to do now?"
"I, I'm going to save them!"
"Like always right?"
"Of course! I'm Sailor Moon! Champion of--"
"Nothing. Champion of nothing."
Usagi awoke with a gasp. The dream had been too real for her, the battlefield, the smell of blood; the woman in black...all had seemed so real. She fell back into her soft, fluffy, pink pillows. Thank God, it's Saturday, she mumbled in her head. Turning over, she looked at the clock.
"WHAT? It's already 10?"
A yawn from the foot of the bed announced Luna's presence. "Yes, Usagi, please do stop yelling."
"Luna, I had a strange dream."
"Was is about the Negaverse returning again? Listen Usagi, the storms have passed just rest for now."
Usagi looked out the window as Luna stretched again. The blonde sighed and got out of bed. She had promised to go with V-babe and Ami to the movies and she was going to be late if she didn't hurry.
"Hi guys! Sorry I'm late...again."
"Geeze, meatball-head, well it's a good thing Ami thought ahead, we're going to the later showing of the movie, we knew you'd be late!" Minako yelled as she pretended to smack Usagi on the head. Usagi sighted and then smiled.
"Great! And since we've got some time...LET'S GO TO THE BAKERY OVER THERE! Oh look! They've got doughnuts! Oh come on, come on!" As Usagi raced to the bakery Minako sighed and shook her head, "I wonder how she fits into her scout uniform sometimes."
Ami smiled politely as Minako chased after the ditzy teen, "I hope we never have to don that uniform again, V-babe."
As the trio munched on biscuits, Minako lazily looked out the window. Her blue eyes reflected the sky as birds flew by. She sighed softly in a dreamy way. Suddenly Minako saw a boy she recognized very well. He had short black hair and steel blue eyes and was built fairly well. Minako was about to tap Usagi on the shoulder when she noticed another girl next to him in deep conversation.
"Oh, girl," Minako began, but stopped when Usagi turned to see.
"Oh my Gosh, MAMORU!" Usagi bolted from the table to her beloved boyfriend, leaving Ami and Minako to watch from the cafe window.
"This can only end in tears," Ami said holding her breath.
"Yeah, and you know, she'll jump to conclusions." The two watched as Usagi glomped Mamoru--almost knocking him over--and then noticed the woman beside him. Minako watched as Mamoru calmly introduced the woman to a patient looking Usagi who then eagerly shook Mamoru's companion's hand.
"What was that?" Minako asked shocked.
"Wow, it's so nice to meet you! I can't believe you finally found part of your family, Mamoru!" "It's tragic that we didn't find each other sooner," the Mamoru said then with a smile, "but better late then never, right, Koyami?"
"Yes, indeed, but um, we're going to be late for the movie," Koyami smiled, her green eyes shinning in a sinister way and her smile seemed forced. Usagi couldn't get over her, though. She had just come in from Paris Mamoru had said and she looked like a child of high fashion. Her outfit was made of a power blue silk skirt and blood red peasant blouse that also seemed to be made of silk. From a distance, Ami and Minako felt something strange about this girl, but Usagi was enthralled with her.
"Yeah, I guess we should get going. Are you going to the movies too, Buns?"
"Uh-huh! Ami and Minako are here too.hey where-oh that's right they're still at the café! Omigosh I better go! Bye you two!" and with that, Usagi dashed back to the café.
"A sister? I don't recall him ever saying he had a sister," Makoto said doubtfully as she poured some green tea. The girls were hanging out at Makoto's apartment on Sunday and now the appearance of Mamoru's sister had come into the conversation.
"Seriously, meatball head, he's never said anything before and I doubt it's a case of selective memory," Rei said scowling.
"Let me guess, bad fire reading and now this means there's another bad guy?" Minako sighed, "Or girl, whatever."
"Correct," Rei began, "I think we should have Setsuna take a look at her energy pattern first. Before we jump to conclusions, that is."
"Guys, I don't think she's evil."
Everyone looked at Usagi, whose blue eyes were starting to fill with tears.
"Bunny, I know you don't want to fight again, but it's not like we have a choice. I'm sorry," Minako said in a soft voice.
"I know, I'm sorry. Alright, let's have Setsuna take a look at her."
Usagi made her way down the halls of Crossroads Junior High to the nurse's office after school on Monday. She sighed and crossed her fingers that Koyami was just a normal girl. Usagi thought about the young woman in her head. Koyami was probably only a few years older than Usagi herself was but she seemed much older. Her skin had been so pale, and her hair had been such a wonderful shade of auburn and blonde, and her eyes had been so powerful, Usagi didn't know one word that could describe her perfectly. Suddenly, the dreaming meatball head was brought back to reality as she collided with something.
"Oh! Are you okay? Oh, it's you, your highness."
"Setsuna, please, do you have to always address me like that?"
"Sorry, didn't know it offended you," the woman said with a shrug. She picked up her clipboard and pens and flipped her long green hair back over her shoulder as Usagi looked about.
"Setsuna, I need you to look up someone's energy pattern for me."
Setsuna looked at the blonde then quickly ushered her into the office. When the two were both inside Setsuna locked the door. "Is it a Negaverse issue again? Or is it someone waking up senshi that shouldn't be awake yet? Or-"
"It's a sister."
"Oh not again, another Rini figure?"
"No, Mamoru seems to have found a sister."
Setsuna looked puzzled; "Earth had no sister."
"I think this is a sister from his late-family, now."
"What are they teaching you in grammar? 'Late-family now' really now that is-"
"Setsuna!"
"Of course, forgive me. I will look into it. Oh while you're here, give this to Rini," Setsuna said with a smile as she handed Usagi a key on a silver chain. "She broke the key and needed me to fix it."
Usagi smiled and bowed as she turned to leave.
"Oh be careful the-"
THUNK
".door's locked," Setsuna finished as Usagi rebounded off the door to the floor. The time guardian smiled to herself and chuckled under her breath as she went to her computer.
"Mom! I'm home! What's for dinner?"
"Something with chicken and broccoli!"
Irck! Usagi thought as she walked into the living room. There she found the pink haired mini-me-esque creature that was her daughter; but for now, she was just a pesky little sister.
"What are you doing meatball head?" Chibi-Usa asked in her annoying, nagging tone.
Usagi held back the urge to bash the obnoxious child's skull in and pulled out the key, "Setsuna told me to give this to you."
"Huh? Oh! Great!" The little girl grabbed the key and raced off to her room. Usagi sighed and turned off the TV. Her mind wandered around the room and she felt herself daydreaming. Suddenly she saw a pair of piercing green eyes.
"You are nothing. They've all come for the crystal, never you. Nobody cares about you, you are nothing."
Usagi's eyes shot open. She turned to she her mother yelling that it was dinnertime.
Makoto, Ami, and Usagi were all eating lunch outside the school-well in truth, Usagi was eating Makoto's lunch, Amy was studying for the test next period that she had studied for a billion times all ready, and Makoto was trying to get some of her own food (no luck though)-when Setsuna came up to them.
"Sorry, Usagi, but her energy pattern isn't human," the nurse said in a hushed tone.
"I, I'm going to save them!"
"Like always right?"
"Of course! I'm Sailor Moon! Champion of--"
"Nothing. Champion of nothing."
