****** Chapter One ******
Usagi was a girl that had it all. A great family, great friends that supported
her whenever she needed it. Not only that, she had a wonderful boyfriend that
loved her no matter how klutzy and silly she was. That morning, that fateful
morning, she slept in her bed. It was one of those days where she didn't have
to get up so early. Luna slept on the edge of the bed. Luna woke up and saw
that Usagi still hadn't stirred yet. Luna decided to let Usagi sleep. It wasn't
not too long after Luna had woken up that Usagi had woken up. This would be
the last time Usagi would sleep in her bed. Luna looked at Usagi for a moment
and spoke to her.
"Good morning Usagi-Chan, it looks like you slept good. What are you going to
do today?"
Luna greeted her and asked what her plans were.
"Good morning Luna. I think Rei and the other girls wanted to take me somewhere.
But I do not know where yet."
Usagi replied.
"So, you don't know where they are taking you?"
Luna asked.
"That's right?"
Usagi answered. Usagi didn't know where. Usagi got up from her bed and went to
her closet and chose a matching blouse and skirt set which happened to be pink.
Then she went to her drawers where she kept other articles of clothing chose
a pair of white socks and also a pair of underwear. She spoke to Luna.
"I am going to get ready. be right back."
Usagi told Luna. Usagi took a shower and return a little while later. Luna spoke
to her.
"Usagi-Chan, how soon do you leave?"
Luna asked.
"In a few Luna."
Usagi spoke as she went and got her brooch and placed it on her blouse.
Usagi then gets her shoes on and goes down stairs and Luna follows.
Ikuko, Usagi's mother greets her.
"Hello, Usagi. Good morning."
Ikuko spoke to her daughter.
"Good morning mother."
Usagi happily greeted her. Usagi sat at the table. Luna joined nearby.
"Where are you going today?"
Ikuko asked. Usagi answered.
"Rei and the others were taking me somewhere but I don't know where."
Usagi replied. But actually, Usagi forgot what Rei said the other day.
Usagi most of the time was a klutz, a ditz, and a crybaby. Her forgetting
things was her specialty.
"So, you don't know?"
Ikuko asked as she brought Usagi some eggs and toast.
"Thanks mom."
Usagi thanked her as she ate the eggs and the toast in a hurry. Then
she got up and went to the door. Luna followed.
"Bye Mother."
Usagi told her and Usagi went out the door and went to the gate. There in a
vehicle was Michiru, Haruka, and Setsuna was in the car. Haruka spoke up.
"Hey, Odango! Where are you going?"
Haruka asked. Usagi wondered why the three Outer Senshi would show up outside
her house. Usagi spoke.
"I am going to meet up with Rei and the others. But as where they were taking
me, I don't know."
Usagi replied.
"I see, Odango. Get in, we will give you a ride."
Haruka spoke. Haruka in Michiru were in the front of the car and Setsuna
was in the back. Usagi got in and buckled her seat belt. Setsuna spoke.
"Good morning Usagi, how are you?"
Setsuna asked.
"Umm..." Usagi stammered a bit and she she spoke, "fine."
Usagi was a bit surprised that the Outer Senshi would show up.
"Usagi, has anything happened recently to you?"
Michiru asked. Usagi thought and replied.
"No, nothing unusual has happened, why?"
Usagi replied and then asked a question.
"Usagi-San, I sensed recently that something has entered in our dimension."
Setsuna explained.
"Do you think they might be after me?"
Usagi asked in a curious tone.
"I saw in my mirror that something bad might happen to you today. As to what
I don't know. Allow us to take you to the others. Okay?"
Michiru replied in a concerned tone. Usagi looked down. She didn't like it
when others wanted to protect her. What was even worse, Usagi didn't like others
to be hurt for her.
"Know this Usagi, we want to make sure you stay safe. Nothing bad has happened yet.
You know you are our Princess, so we want to make sure you stay safe. So, please
be happy okay?"
Michiru spoke again. Usagi remained silent. She didn't know what to say. Her day
wasn't starting as well as she hoped.
"Usagi-Chan, please remember what Michiru-sama said. You're the Princess and
something might happen, right? Keeping you safe is the key. Listen to their
advice. I know you don't like being protected, but for now let them keep you
safe."
Luna advised Usagi. Usagi nodded her head in agreement and remained silent.
They got to the Hikawa Shrine. There they met up with Rei, Minako, Makoto, Ami and
ChibiUsa. Rei spoke to Usagi.
"You're late Usagi!"
Rei yelled.
"It's not my fault Rei-Chan!"
Usagi yelled.
"I bet you forgot where we are going didn't you?"
Rei yelled at Usagi again. Usagi didn't feel like yelling back at Rei. Just
as before, Usagi remained silent. Makoto spoke.
"Rei, you need to stop yelling at Usagi. You know she needs support and someone
yelling at her constantly."
Makoto reminded Rei. Rei walked over to Usagi and spoke to her.
"I am sorry Usagi. I really didn't mean to yell at you. Why are the Outer
Senshi here?"
Rei apologized and asked why the Outer Senshi were there.
"We feel something bad might happen to Usagi. We wanted to make sure she
stays safe."
Setsuna spoke.
"Usagi, we all care for you. Keeping you safe is our job."
Haruka spoke as she tapped Usagi on Usagi's head. Then suddenly an unknown
monster appeared.
"Who are you?"
Setsuna asked.
"I am an underling of the Shark King, a demon that dwells in the deep oceans of the seven
seas. I am here to eliminate you all!"
The underling spoke. The monster had an appearance of a fish.
"Everyone, transform!"
Luna commanded.
"Moon Cosmic Power!"
"Mercury Star Power!"
"Mars Star Power!"
"Jupiter Star Power!"
"Venus Star Power!"
"Uranus Planet Power!"
"Neptune Planet Power!"
"Pluto Planet Power!"
"Moon Prism Power!"
The nine Senshi yelled.
"MAKE UP!"
The nine Sailor Senshi transformed into their proper Senshi forms.
"Supreme Thunder!"
Sailor Jupiter yelled as lightning struck the unknown monster.
"World Shaking!"
Sailor Uranus yelled as a ball of yellow energy formed in her hand and
she released it and it hit the monster.
"Dead Scream!"
Sailor Pluto yelled as she used her staff and caused a ball of dark energy to
hit the monster.
"NOW! SAILOR MOON!"
Sailor Pluto yelled.
"Right! Moon Spiral Heart Attack!"
Sailor Moon twirled as she made her attack with her Spiral Heart Moon Rod
and the energy came out of her rod and destroyed the monster and it turned
back into a crystal and landed on the ground and turned to dust.
"Good job Sailor Moon."
Pluto congratulated her. Then a terrible looking shark monster with his two
sidekicks, one that looked like a piranha and the other a barracuda. The
one who resembled a shark spoke.
"I am the Shark King, I dwell deep in the deepest waters of this planet! I didn't
know there were warriors who protected this planet. And you must be the leader
who defeated my warrior. Well, I have ways of punishing those who stand in my way!"
The Shark King spoke to Sailor Moon.
"Your monster was evil, what did you expect me to do, run away?"
Sailor Moon yelled.
"This is what you get for punishing my monster!"
The Shark King spoke as his eyes glowed red and two red beams struck Sailor
Moon and Sailor Moon was froze as the energy from his eyes hit her and
after a minute, the Shark King powered down again.
"WHAT DID YOU DO TO HER?"
Sailor Uranus yelled.
"Oh, I will tell you. See, my power can turn anyone into a sea creature and
your friend Sailor Moon will in one hour turn into a mermaid. Each day, she
can come out of the water for two hours and if she isn't returned to the
water, she will die very slowly. But for now, you got to find a source
of water or else she'll die. farewell."
The Shark King spoke and he vanished. Sailor Moon collapsed to the ground
in shock and dismay. Everyone ran to Sailor Moon.
"Sailor Moon, are you alright?"
Sailor Mars asked. Sailor Moon looked at Mars. She replied.
"My body is acting very strange."
Sailor Moon spoke as she held her head with her hand.
"Your body is changing into a mermaid. What that monster said was true."
Mercury stated.
"Where do we put Usagi?"
Jupiter asked.
"Ojii-san has a big Koi pond in the back of the shrine and it is deep enough
for Usagi to be in."
Sailor Mars replied.
"We don't have much time then. And I can't be transformed in that pond. Who knows
what the Ginzuishou will do to the fish."
Sailor Moon replied. Sailor Moon remembered all the stories about mermaids. She knew
most mermaids only had a bikini top and fins and that was all they wore. Sailor Moon spoke
again.
"Jupiter and Venus go to my house and get me a bikini top."
Sailor Moon spoke again. Her body began to shiver.
"Sailor Moon are you okay?"
Sailor Mercury asked.
"I am cold."
Sailor Moon answered and Tuxedo Kamen appeared.
"You're cold?"
Venus asked.
"Yes. Very cold."
Sailor Moon replied.
"her body is changing. The air must be making her cold."
Mercury replied. Tuxedo Kamen took off his cape and wrapped it
around Sailor Moon.
"I am sorry Tuxedo Kamen, this won't do. Mercury and Neptune
a favor please."
Sailor Moon asked them.
"What is it?"
Mercury and Neptune spoke in unison.
"Please use your 'Shine Aqua Illusion' and Deep Submerge' on me.
Your power of water will shield me from the air and keep me warm."
Sailor moon asked.
"Sailor Moon are you sure?"
Neptune asked more worried about hurting Usagi.
"Yes, go ahead. I am changing and I need to be kept warm. Your
powers will shield me and protect me from the air."
Sailor Moon answered them as she tried to stand but fell back down to the
ground. Mars and Venus lifted up Sailor Moon.
"Now Mercury and Neptune! For sailor Moon!"
Luna told them.
"Shine Aqua Illusion!"
"Deep Submerge!"
Sailor Neptune and Sailor Mercury made their attacks and the Shine Aqua Illusion and
the Deep Submerge covered Sailor Moon and created a shield of water all of her body.
Sailor Neptune and Sailor Mercury were surprised at what they caused.
"Now hurry Jupiter and Venus go to my house and tell my parents none of what happened.
Now hurry time is fleeting!"
Sailor Moon spoke with great urgency.
"I will take you Usagi's house to save time."
Neptune spoke as her and Uranus, along with Jupiter and Venus all re-transformed.
"Okay."
Minako and Makoto agreed and they left with Michiru and Haruka all left for Usagi's house.
Rei, Ami, ChibiUsa and Setsuna all re-transformed as well and went inside the Hikawa Shrine with
Sailor Moon. Luna, Artemis, Chibiusa went inside with Sailor Moon.
"In here."
Rei directed Sailor Moon to a guestroom to wait while the others returned. Rei went and got a large
towel.
"Sailor Moon, after those others return, wrap this towel around your waist okay?"
Rei instructed her.
"I understand."
Sailor Moon replied.
"How do you feel?"
Ami asked.
"Weak. Other than that, I am fine."
Sailor Moon replied. Tuxedo Kamen re-transformed into Mamoru. He embraced Sailor Moon.
He spoke to her.
"Are you okay?"
Mamoru asked.
"I'll be fine Mamo-Chan. Neptune and Mercury's water is keeping me warm."
Sailor Moon answered him.
"Be strong Usako. This is a new experience for you. I am sure you'll learn a lot
from it."
Mamoru told her.
"I will do my best."
Sailor Moon replied. In minutes Michiru, Haruka, Minako and Makoto returned.
Makoto gave Sailor Moon the bikini top. it was pink.
"This will do fine."
Sailor Moon spoke as she re-transformed back into Usagi. The barrier of water
would fade eventually since Usagi re-transformed. Rei led Usagi to the
bathroom.
"Are you going to be fine while in there?"
Rei asked.
"Yes, I'll be fine."
Usagi replied. She took the bikini top and the towel and went into the bathroom
and she took off the clothes that she had on and put on the bikini top and then
wrapped the big towel around her and made sure it was tied around her securely.
Then Usagi came back out.
"Are you ready?"
Rei asked.
"As I will ever be."
Usagi answered. Makoto and Minako held on to Usagi so she wouldn't fall.
Ojii-san and Yuuichirou saw them. Ojii-san spoke.
"Rei where are you going?"
Ojii-san asked her.
"Ojii-san, Usagi has been hit with a ray by a monster and she is to be put in water
to save her life. She'll transform into a mermaid. I have to put her into the Koi
pond. Please Ojii-san, for Usagi until we can find a way to reverse it."
Rei Pleaded. Ojii-San agreed.
"Okay Rei. I like Usagi. She's a good girl. If it will save her life, you may put
her there."
Ojii-San told her.
"Thank you Ojii-san. let's go everyone."
Rei thanked him and they walked to the big koi pond.
"Wow Rei! What a beautiful pond that is."
Usagi told her as they walked Usagi to the pond's edge.
Usagi replied again and turning to the others.
"Are the Koi friendly?"
Usagi asked.
"They are shy at first, but they'll get used to you."
Rei answered.
"Rei keep my brooch safe."
Usagi ask her to guard the brooch.
"Now, please Usagi get in the water."
Makoto asked her.
"Okay. Here it goes."
Usagi told them as she got in causing her big towel to get wet.
"Nothing has happened yet."
Usagi spoke in a tone that was unsure if she would actually change into a mermaid.
"Usagi, you still have a few minutes left."
Ami reminded her.
"Okay."
Usagi made a deep sigh. Usagi relaxed on the pond's edge in the water. The Koi
swam away to avoid the newcomer. Then the time passed and the transformation
occurred. Slowly Usagi's legs merged and became one long tail fin. Then the
transformation was over.
"Usagi, the transformation is complete."
Ami told her.
"It really happened?"
Usagi asked in disbelief.
"Yes, Usagi. You have transformed into a mermaid."
Rei answered her. Usagi took off the big towel to reveal one long
tail fin.
"Interesting."
Usagi replied as she moved her tail fin. Then she looked back at the others.
"Everyone. I suggest we try and visit Usagi each day to keep her morale up.
This is a new experience for her and most of the time she will be alone here
in this pond. Visiting her will keep her spirits up. Usagi, you will have
to be brave and strong. I'll visit too as often as I can. I know Usagi that
you can swim. It will be good if you swim around in the pond to get used
to your surroundings. How do you feel? Does the water feel cold to you?"
Luna told her and asked her a question.
"The water feels fine Luna, why don't you just come on in?"
Usagi replied and then asked Luna to join her.
"I am glad the water is fine to you. But cats do not like water."
Luna replied knowing she didn't like water.
"Aww, how sad Luna, the water feels great to me."
Usagi replied as she smiled an evil smile.
"Usagi, it seems you're taking it really well. Just make sure don't leave the pond.
I will need to talk to you later with Luna and Rei, okay?"
Ami told her.
"I won't leave. I promise."
Usagi promised.
"Now, Usako, go an explore that pond. I'll visit too when I can."
Mamoru told her.
"Okay."
Usagi answered as she turned around to face the pond and swam to the middle
of the pond and then dived down deep to the bottom revealing her tail fin
as she dove deep. Usagi never saw a bottom of a pond before. She saw the
Koi swimming all over the pond, but she really wasn't interested in them and
then she swam back to the surface. And looked and everyone else was still
there. Her long hair floated in the water as she stood herself upright in
the water. Usagi waved at them and dove down again to explore the rest of
the pond. At the back of the Koi pond she she discovered a passage way
that led to a secret entrance to a small cave like dwelling. She popped her
head in the cave.
"Wow, I didn't know this was here."
Usagi spoke to herself and she noticed stack of old books not too far
from the opening where she was. She took her hand tried to dry it as
quickly as possible. Once her hand was dry she examined one of the
books and discovered it was an old manga. It was in black and white.
"Wow! This is a manga. It's black and white. It must be very old."
Usagi spoke to no one. Her voice echoed in the cave. Usagi smiled
knowing life here wouldn't be boring as she thought. She left the
mangas there and swam back to the other side of the pond and came
back to the surface and noticed all but Rei had left. Rei spoke
to Usagi.
"Will you be okay, Usagi?"
Rei asked.
"Thank you Rei for everything. I'll be fine. This is a new experience,
nothing like I can't handle."
Usagi thanked her. Usagi's life has changed. Her life would be met with new
challenges now that Usagi has become the 'Odango With Fins.'
