The Big News

"Usagi! You odango atama! What were you thinking?" Rei had, had enough of Usagi being lazy. Usagi had been told to bring the pie and the salad for the scout meeting and some how she had forgotten both!

"Rei I said i was sorry! And don't call me ODANGO ATAMA, you over grown toad!" With that both Rei and Usagi faced each other and stuck out they're tongues.

"That's enough you to." Luna had told Usagi several times to pick the pie and salad up on her way into town, but each time Usagi had forgotten.

"I'm sure if you call Ami she'll run by a store and pick both the pie and salad up. There is no need for the childish antics." And with that said Luna turned and left the room to go call Ami and the other scouts.

But as soon as Luna had turned her back Usagi and Rei stuck out they're tongues again.

When they heard the knock at the temple door they all rushed to see who it was. "I'll get it!" Rei cried out as Usagi tripped over a shoe on her way to the door. Rei still laughing when she opened the door blushed when she saw that it was Mamoru.

"Hi Rei, ha-ha why is Usagi on the floor?" He asked as he walked to where she was sprawled out over the floor. "Did you trip over something dear?" Mamoru couldn't had the smile on his face as he saw Usagi toss a near by pillow at Rei.

"I wouldn't have tripped over anything if Rei hadn't been getting in my way!" Usagi hated it when Rei would race her to doing things. Mamoru helped Usagi to her feet then hugged her. "It's ok odango atama." Mamoru broke out into a wide grin that went from one ear to the other. Usagi smacked his chest.

"Oh, Mamoru! You know I hate being called that!" Usagi turned her back to him to give affect to what she had said.

"Silly Usagi, you know I'm only teasing you. Give me a kiss." When Rei saw the two kissing she fled the room and joined Luna in the kitchen.

"Hey Luna, did you get a hold of Ami? She should be here soon." Luna nodded her head as she put the communication device back in Usagi's bag.

"What did she say?" Rei cleverly trying to buy time to keep from being forced back into the scene she had just worked so hard to escape from.

"Oh she said she'd gladly get the pie and salad for us on her way to pick up Minako and Makoto." Luna had a strange look about her, Rei couldn't help but notice. She looked a little spaced.

"Luna? Are you ok?" Rei wasn't sure what was happening but she could feel a cold presence in the temple. But as Rei watched Luna slowly returned to normal, leaving no sign that anything was wrong. "Luna?"

"Yes Rei, what is it?" Luna looking intently at Rei. "What is it Rei? We need to go back too greet the others, if your not going to say something." When Luna left the room Rei followed slowly, suddenly forgetting what had happened she started to think about what Usagi and Mamoru would be doing when they entered the room. "Great...onward to see the lovey dovey couple...eww."

While Rei had been talking to Luna, Mamoru had felt a strange presents in Usagi. Feeling that something was wrong he had broken their kiss, looking deeply into her eyes. "Usagi what's wrong?" Usagi looked as if she was lost in thought. She continued to stare off into space as he asked her. Becoming worried Mamoru shook her. Finally breaking her out of her trance Mamoru tried to ask her again. "Usagi, what's going on with you?" Usagi could see the worry in his eyes. To her knowledge everything was fine, one minute they were kissing the next they Mamoru was shaking her asking what was wrong.

"What do you mean Mamoru? Everything is fine, why were you shaking me?" Mamoru saw the confused look on his beautiful lover but he was sure something had happened.

"Uhhh, never mind Usagi, everything is fine. Where did Rei and Luna wonder off to?" Still a little worried about what he had felt and the look that was in Usagi's eyes earlier he slowly walked to the small table in the center of the room and sat down waiting for Usagi to join him.

"Hmm, I just they went to call Ami and the others…I forgot to get the pie and salad." Usagi was a little worried about what Mamoru would say and gave him a childlike innocent look.

"Am I supposed to be surprised?" Mamoru joked and held out his arms for her to come to him. Once Usagi was in his arms reach he helped her to sit down on the floor and kissed her forehead gently.

As Mamoru was kissing Usagi's forehead there was a knock at the door, but before he or Usagi could get up to get it, Luna and Rei where entering the room and took care of it.

"Oh Ami! Did you get the pie and salad that odango atama was supposed to get?" Rei said while she gave Usagi and evil look that could have killed.

"Yes Rei I did, and Makoto brought pizza. So what's the meeting for?" Ami had been informed at the last minute along with the other scouts by Luna that they needed to have a meeting but had never told them why. Rei lead Makoto, Ami, and Minako to the table as Artemis walked over to Luna.

"Alright scouts now that we are all here. Artemis and I have to tell you something. Artemis would you like to tell them or should I? Everyone looked from Artemis to Luna, what could they have to tell them? Finally Artemis decided he would tell them all the news.

"Well as you all know Luna and I are um, well how do I put this?" As Artemis fumbled for the right words to use Makoto blurted out "JUST SAY IT!" as the rest of the group chorused in with yeas and I knows.

"Ok, Luna is going to have a baby."

Everyone was speechless, except Usagi who seemed to have a million questions. "How?" As soon as it had come out of Usagi's mouth everyone in the room burst out laughing. Everyone except Usagi. Usagi wasn't baka when it came to love but she couldn't understand how Luna had become pregnant. "Oh shut up you guys! You all know what I mean." Mamoru slowed his laughing and put an arm around Usagi.

"We know dear, but they way it came out was like a child asking their mother about babies. We're sorry." Usagi beamed at Mamoru, no matter what he said or what they had agreements about Usagi couldn't help but forgiving him, he was just too perfect.

"Well Usagi Artemis and I are in love and in the past we when we were human like all of you we were married." Everyone looked up at Luna in aw.

Without warning the group all yelled out in joy. "WOO!"

They continued to discuss the news for a while. Each one adding their opinion about what they had been told.
