Practical Jokes - Prologue
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Tsukino Usagi had just finished her third detention of the week
and was now happily headed for the arcade with Hino Rei in tow. Usagi
grinned slyly to herself this was going to be *very* fun, and she hoped
it would somewhat exciting.
"Usa-chan? Don't you think we should wait for the others?"
Rei's voice interrupted her thoughts.
"No, Rei-chan!" Usagi whined, "Don't wimp out on me, please?"
"Alright, you win! But if we get busted, I don't know you and
I've never seen you." Rei conceded. And it was true. Rei could lie and
no one would suspect her. Usagi sweatdropped. 'Sure hope we don't get
caught.'
"Relax, Pyro, we're not gonna get caught. All we have to do is
go in the back way and somehow get the, uh, what's is called again?"
"A bugging device." For the millionth time, Rei wondered how in
the name of Mars she had let her best friend talk her into doing this.
"Yeah that!" Usagi agreed. "All we have to do is figure out
how to plant it on Motoki!"
"Ugh, I know you like him, Usagi-chan, but isn't this just a
bit too much?"
"Eek! Rei-chan, I do not like Motoki! He like a brother to me.
But seriously, you don't know why we're doing this?" Usagi asked.
Surely, Rei-chan was not *that* naive!
"No." Rei answered matter-of-factly, "If I did I probably
wouldn't have agreed to do this with you in the first place!"
"Duh, pyro, it's for Mina-chan, she has the biggest crush on
Motoki-kun!"
Rei was dumbfounded. "You mean Minako... she... she has...
Woohoo! Go Minako!"
"Yeah, well don't let on you know. I'm not supposed to tell
anybody."
"How long?" Rei shifted her backpack from one arm to the other.
"About two months, actually."
"I can't believe she never told us. It's not like Mina-chan, to
keep such a secret!" Rei was dumbfounded, usually she picked up on
things like that quickly. 'Maybe I'm losing my touch.'
"I know." Usagi agreed quietly, "But it's different this time,
I think she really cares about him and not just because of his looks
either. It's something deeper." Rei noticed the tinge of longing in
Usagi's voice and tried to cheer her up.
"Well, in that case, let's do this!" She cheered happily.

Usagi and Rei entered silently through the unlocked back door.
Shutting the door behind them, the two love bandits headed towards the
light coming though the hallway.
Nearly fifteen minutes later (and three cobwebs), they reached
a door with and small window in it.
"Rei-chan, the window is too high, I can't see out of it!"
Usagi stated the obvious.
"Neither can I," Rei admitted after her turn of trying. "Stand
on me Usagi-chan."
"NANI???" A wide-eyed Usagi asked. What on Earth was Rei
thinking?
"I'm serious. Climb up on my back and look out!"
"But... but..."
"Just do it, you Odango!" Rei hissed. Usagi's eyes narrowed and
she nodded adamantly.
"For Minako!"
Usagi placed her hand on Rei's shoulder and hoisted herself up.
"Gee... Usagi-chan, maybe this wasn't such a good idea. How
much do you weigh?" But it was too late and Rei lost her balance. The
two fell through the door and onto the floor in front of Furuhata
Motoki and Chiba Mamoru.
"Usagi-chan, Rei-san? Are you two alright?" Motoki hurried over
to where they had fallen. Mamoru a good laugh.
"Yeah, we'll be okay, Motoki-kun." Rei responded and picked
herself and Usagi off the floor.
"Hey, Odango Atama!" Mamoru smirked and prepared for battle. "I
see you've gone from failing tests to falling though doors!"
"What were you to doing back there? Motoki interrupted Mamoru's
corny attempt to pick a fight with Usagi.
"Uh..." Usagi slapped Motoki on the chest, dropping the device
into the breast pocket of his shirt. "We were just, uh..."
"Looking for the restrooms." Rei cut in. Sheesh... Usagi was
really not doing a good job at getting them out of this mess.
"Yeah, right." Mamoru snorted, but was ignored by all except
Usagi who sent an indignant glance his way.
"Well, um, Rei-chan and I really should be going so, uh, ja ne
Motoki-kun, Mamoru-baka." Usagi and Rei hurried outside through the
front door.
"Did you get him?" Rei asked.
"Yep!" Usagi cried triumphantly. Surely Minako would love this!
As soon as Usagi and Rei reached Rei's temple they wasted no
time in turning on the intercom to the bugging device. 'Time for some
major spying!' Usagi thought with glee.
"Admit it Mamoru-kun! You like her!" Motoki was saying.
"I do not!" Mamoru replied sharply.
'Sounds like denial to me' Rei whispered.
"Oh yes, you do. You have a thing for Usagi."
"Alright, maybe I do." Mamoru conceded.
"Say it, Mamoru, say it!"
"Fine, ilikeher."
"I can't hear you!" Motoki teased relentlessly.
"I like her a lot," Mamoru confessed again, "but if she ever
finds out about this... you'd better run and hide, because I'll be
coming after you, Motoki-kun." Motoki chuckled, half scared, half
amused at Mamoru's serious expression.
"And besides," Mamoru added, "I know you have a thing for
Minako."
--- Back in Usagi's room, our Odango Atama had fainted at the
information overload of that fateful day...
