A/N: Hi! ^_^ This is my first fanfic ever! I really hope you all enjoy it!!
Disclaimer: I do not own any part of Sailor Moon.
PROLOGUE
She sat at the booth all by herself. She had just had the worst experience ever. She didn't understand what was happening to her life. Everything was going so fine until two months ago, when her mother had let her secret slip.
*FLASHBACK*
There was screaming and yelling coming from the living room. She was confused; her house was always so calm and peaceful. She walked down the stairs towards the living room and saw Shingo standing outside at the entryway. "What's happening? Why are they yelling?" She was worried; she had never heard her parents fight before. What worried her even more was the way her little brother looked at her with hate in his eyes, "This is all your fault! They wouldn't be fighting if you didn't exist! You shouldn't exist!!" She watched him walk away with pain in her eyes. She didn't have any idea what he was talking about. She decided to eavesdrop on her parents' conversation.
"You filthy slut," she heard her father yell, "How dare you?! After everything I've done for you, you go and open your legs for some other man like a filthy whore."
"Kenji please! I am so sorry. I was weak and I made a mistake. Please you have to forgive me!"
SMACK!!
Usagi gasped. She couldn't believe it. Her father had just hit her mother. She tried to hide, but she realized that it was too late. Her father had heard her gasp and had turned around and was now yanking her by her hair and yelling. "You are not my daughter! You are that whore's bastard child! I should disown you," he roared as he flung her next to where her mother had fallen. He kicked his wife in the gut. "I LOVED YOU SO MUCH AND THIS IS HOW YOU REPAY ME! YOU DARE TO CHEAT ON ME AND HAVE A BASTARD CHILD! I SHOULD KILL YOU!"
Usagi was lying on the floor crying. "Daddy! Daddy, what are you talking about!? I don't understand!"
"Don't call me that!! You are not my daughter!" He proceeded to beat her until she blacked out, making sure to not leave bruises anywhere that someone would notice.
*END FLASHBACK*
"Odango-atama, why are you concentrating so hard? It won't get you anywhere, you know that. Stop trying to be smart."
Usagi looked up into the eyes of the one person she hated more than anything in the world – Mamoru. All she could do was glare. She had just had the worst two months of her life and didn't feel up to staying on top of their unending feud. "Shut up Mamoru. I don't have time for this right now! There are more important things going on in my life to have to deal with a baka like you."
"Well maybe if you were just a little bit smarter I wouldn't have a reason to pick a fight with you," he responded smugly. Usagi turned her head and stood up ready to walk through the door to leave, at the last second she said, "You know what, you can really hurt someone with the things you say. I told myself I wouldn't let you get to me, because then that would make me look like the weak crybaby you always make me out to be, but I just can't do this anymore. Not this, not when there is so much other shit I have to put up with!" Mamoru watched eyes wide with regret, as he she ran out of the arcade with tears in her eyes. "Usako…," he whispered, but he realized that this time he had gone too far.
Usagi was running, running as fast as her legs would carry her, away from him. She didn't want to have to see him again; he always hurt her so much. She stopped next to her lake and crumpled into the grass and let the gut wrenching sobs wrack her body. Nobody understood what was happening. Nobody! Everyone thought that she was this good-for-nothing crybaby. Nobody knew about her secrets. The fears and the pain she had to hide behind the lies of the innocent and airheaded persona she gave off. She had gone to the arcade to get away from it all and in doing so had unknowingly ran straight to it. She checked the time and realized she was over an hour late to a senshi meeting again. When she got there she was met with Rei's never-ending fury.
"Usagi!! Why are you so stupid and lazy?! Can't you ever be anywhere on time?! I swear you are such a selfish, immature, little brat! We're here because Beryl is so powerful! She keeps sending out her minions and they are going to kill us if we don't get together and plan this thing out, and all you care about is sleep! I don't even know why we put up with you as a Sailor Moon. You are no good at being a Sailor Senshi. If I had my way I would strip you of your powers and your title as Sailor Moon. You don't ever do anything for us anyway!"
"Rei!" All the other girls cried out in unison. They were astonished by how harsh she was being towards Usagi. Rei turned on them, "What!? I am only saying what we are all thinking! She is useless! WE DO NOT NEED HER!!" They all turned when they heard something fall to the floor. Usagi had torn off her transformation brooch and had tears streaming down her face. None of them had ever seen her look so broken and defeated. "You're right," holding up her hands to stop the protests, "I am good for nothing. I don't help out at all. You don't have to strip me of anything, I quit. You don't need to worry about me getting in the way ever again."
She ran. She didn't know where she was running to, but she ran until her legs gave out and she couldn't run anymore. When she stopped she was in front of the train station. Without thinking, she walked in and she pulled out all the money she had from what she had kept hidden from Kenji, and she bought a ticket. "Miss, what is your destination?" Usagi looked at her confused and said, "What? Oh, where would I like to go?" She was finally realizing the choice she was about to make and that it would be a final one. She was making a choice to leave her home, the only place she had ever lived, Tokyo, forever. Without hesitating she looked the lady in the eye and replied, "Okayama, please."
