P.S. I have a poll on my profile for Fade Away that needs to be answer ASAP! I need it to continue the story.

As always, RRTAB: Read, Review, and Tell A Buddy!

Disclaimer: I don't own Sailor Moon...well not yet anyway...


"I'm home," Usagi grumbled as she walked through the door. She slammed it behind her.

Ikuko stepped out of the kitchen to welcome her only daughter. "Usa—," she stopped when she noticed her daughter's "out to kill" routine. The housewife lightly smiled as Usagi stomped upstairs. She heard a door slam. "I wonder who the lucky boy is," she said dreamily.

Usagi let out a frustrated scream. She threw her backpack against the wall. "I'm sick of it!"

Luna lifted her head and look sleepily at her charge. "Sick of what, Usagi-chan?"

Usagi jumped onto her bed beside her newly awakened cat. "Two words. Every. Thing."

The cat raised an eyebrow. "You're only fourteen. What do you have to possibly worry about?"

"Luna!" Usagi cried. "How could you even say that? My shoulder still hurts from the youma attack last night, I pulled another all-nighter so I was late to school again, Haruna-sensei gave me another detention AND I ran into Mamoru-baka! AGAIN!"

Luna just rolled her eyes. "Sailor Moon isn't supposed to complain about things."

"Oh yeah? I don't remember you getting thrown into a tree by an oversized rat-dog."

"Touché."

Usagi sighed. She scooped Luna up into her arms and pulled her close. "I'm sorry for snapping at you, Luna." She said softly. "I just need a vacation." A smile slowly crossed her face. She put Luna down. "And luckily the Tsukino annual vacation is coming up!"

Luna was shocked. The LEADER of the sailor senshi was taking a vacation while youma were rampaging? When there were still a crystal and a princess to be found and protected? The rainbow crystal were still out there for Serenity's sake!

Usagi glanced at her scary kitty and quickly added, "I'll only be gone for a few days and Ami, Mako, and Rei can handle everything while I'm gone."

Luna growled a little bit. "Fine. Let's hope and pray the princess won't get kidnapped while you're gone."

"Thank you, Luna!" Usagi hugged the feline and ran out the door before she could change her mind.


"Mom! I'm going to the arcade!"

"Okay, Usagi, be home by dinner."

"Hai!" The door shut behind the blond-hair teen. As she ran down the street, Usagi closed her eyes trying to remember how many days were left until the family trip. "I can't wait!"

Unfortunately, Usagi's thoughts were cut short. The next thing she knew, she was sitting on the ground and her nose ached. She opened her eyes and looked up. A smirking face stared back down her. He held up a hand. "Need some help, Odango Atama?"

Usagi's face flushed with anger. "Mamoru-baka!" She jumped up.

"Why are mad at me, Odango? I didn't tell you to bump into me."

"Why am I mad? You saw me walking here and you got in my way on purpose! Not to mention you keep calling me that ridiculous name! My name's Usagi! Oo-sah-gee! It's not that hard!"

"But it doesn't suit you. Odango does. Oh-dahn-go. Learn it. Embrace it."

Usagi's face turned yet another shade of red. "Ugh! You're so annoying! Just leave me alone!" She walked past the dark-haired man and sped to the arcade.

"Usagi-chan," Motoki called as the teen sat in her usual stool. "The usual?" Usagi just nodded and looked at the counter. "So?"

Usagi glanced up. "So?"

"What happened between you and Mamoru-kun today?"

"Nothing," Usagi mumbled.

"Usagi-chaaan," Motoki didn't give up.

"-withaflamingpassion!"

"W-what?"

"She said," Ami translated as she came inside, "'I was walking down the street and the baka ran into me and called me Odango and was being an all-around jerk so I hate him with a flaming passion.'"

"Wow, Ami-chan," Motoki with wide eyes. "How did you know?"

Rei took the seat beside Usagi. "Motoki-kun, when you're around Odango as much as us, you pick up a few things."

"Again with that nickname!" Usagi wailed. "Rei, can't you be nice to me for one day in your life?"

"After what I just heard, no," Rei snapped.

"What?" Usagi's face turned confused.

Makoto grabbed Usagi's pigtails and pulled her head back. "Yeah, what's this I heard about you going on a vacation?"

"Wow, that cat works fast..." Usagi mumbled to herself.

"Nevermind that, Usagi-baka," Rei yelled. "You can't possibly go on vacation! We're too busy! Or did your odango brain forget that little fact?"

"I didn't forget," Usagi retorted. "In fact, that's exactly why I'm going! Besides, Rei-chan, when I'm gone, you're in charge." Drastic times calls for drastic measures.

Rei's eyes widened. "I'M in charge while you're gone?" Usagi nodded. "Have a nice vacation, Usagi."

Motoki, who left when Rei and Usagi were arguing, came back with Usagi's milkshake and cheeseburger. "You're going on vacation, Usa-chan?"

"Yep, that's right.

"Well there goes my best customer," Motoki laughed. "Although, I'm more worried about Mamoru-kun."

Usagi rolled her eyes. "I'm sure he can tease someone else while I'm gone."

"I don't know, Usa," the clerk chuckled. "Out of the years I've known Mamoru, you're the only one he teases."

"Lucky me," the golden haired girl said sarcastically. "But a week without that baka will be the best part of this vacation!"

"Vacation?" Mamorui's voice sounded from the front door.

"Usagi-chan is going on her annual vacation with her family in a few days," Ami explained.

"Not that it's any of your business," the odengoed teen quickly added.

"But you can't go!" Mamoru suddenly cried, shocking all the girls at the counter and leaving a smirking Motoki. The last thing he needed was Motoki telling him 'I told you so'. He cleared his throat and quickly made his made his way over. "I mean, what about school?"

"Spring break," Makoto said simply.

"Why do you care anyway?" Rei asked.

"I-I don't," Mamoru stuttered. "It's just that Odango Atama need as much school as they can possibly give."

That did it. Usagi yanked the top off her milkshake and threw the entire cup at him moon-tiara style. She grabbed her cheeseburger, shoved the soaked man out of her way and stomped towards the door.

"Usagi-chan!" Motoki called after her. "You didn't pay!"

"Rei will pay for me."

"What?"

"Leadership comes with a price," Usagi said before she left.

Rei sighed and turned back to Motoki. "And how much, exactly, is that price, Motoki-kun?"

"For you, ¥250."

She pulled out the money slowly while glaring at Mamoru. "I hope your day goes as well as mine has."

"T-thank you."

"It wasn't a blessing, buddy."


"Usagi, Shingo," Ikuko said over the dinner table. The fourteen year-old and ten-year old looked up from their plates. The housewife smiled. "Your father and I decided to visit your aunt, uncle, and cousins in South America for our vacation."

"South America?" Usagi exclaimed.

"I didn't know we had an aunt," Shingo said with confusion covering his face.

"She is your father's sister," Ikuko explained.

"What's her name?" Usagi asked with curiosity.

"Megumi," Kenji replied, "she has two children around your ages, Sierra and Kazune."

"Why are we just now hearing about these guys?" Shingo asked.

"They live so far away," Ikuko said, "and we lost contact for a while. But we've found them again and Meg-chan and Motoharu-kun invited us to their house. Oh, the wonders of facebook!"

"Wow!" Usagi exclaimed. "South America! When are we leaving?"


Well? Yes? No? What do you think? Tell me in a review!
