Princess of Softball

Usagi is a pitcher for the Tokyo Tridants, the best softball team in Japan. Ever since Seiya and the others left for Kinmoku, she hasn't been able to get her mind of the sport. Mamoru and her broke up a while ago, but they are still good friends. Read on...



Chapter 1: Softball

"Strike 3!! Yooouuurrr out!" The umpire roared. The crowds went wild. Usagi had just struck out the last batter and won the game for Tokyo. She threw her hands up in the air as the rest of the team ran on to the feild and was patting her on the back and ruffling her hair. She won the playoffs for Japan.

In the locker rooms, Usagi jumped out of her uniform and grabbed her sports bag and ran out to greet her friends at the opening. Out side, there was a huge line of fans waiting and they screamed higher as she and her team mates got outside. Everyone was holding out their pictures of the team members and their pens. Everyone spread out and people kept taking pictures it made Usagi dizzy. She signed at least 54 different pictures and posed for pictures with the fans even more. At the end of the walk, her friends were there waiting and waving at her. Usagi ran up and hugged Ami, Rei, Makoto, Minako, and Naru. Luna, Usagi's black talking cat, jumped onto her shoulder and licked her cheek. Haruka, Michiru, Setsuna, and Hotaru were next to them. Usagi hugged everyone then they hoped into the white limo the league gave her.

"Wow, great game Usa! That's go to be a record on how many people you struck out." Hotaru said sitting beside her. "I'm going to make a big dinner for you tonight and we can celebrate, all of us." Makoto stated, seeing as how she was such a great cook, Minako was beside herself with excitment. "Oh yeah! Party at Usagi's!" She yelled. Michiru gave Usagi a present for winning the playoffs. Usagi opened it, and screamed. Inside, there was a poster of Koahari Masiro, the cutest baseball player of all time, and there was a guide of tips by him about how to play tricks on the opposing team. "Ahhh! I saw this on TV! Thanks so much guys!" "You know what this means, don't you Usagi?" Ami stated. Everyone looked at her. Usagi thought for a moment. "What?" Ami was silent for a minute and looked at everyone. Then she blurted out, "It means you get to go on the world softball tour, which means you play against teams from all over the globe!" She finished and everyone started laughing. "Of course, how could I have forgotten! I've only talked about it everyday for the past month!" Usagi laughed and fell over which only made the others laugh even more.
