Chibiusa made it into class right on time. The speech in the auditorium was hectic! One whole hour, she had to stay seated and listen to the school's president give her speech. It was BORING! Misa had to keep waking her up too. Chibiusa approached Misa's seat and started to talk to her before class started.
"Hey! Wanna go grab ice cream after school?" Chibiusa asked.
Misa tossed her long golden hair over her shoulder and smiled, "Sure, why not!"
The teacher entered the classroom with a depressed look upon his grey face. His thick lenses and smoothed back hair seemed so gloomy.
"Hello class…today we will start with roll call." He said and then sighed long and deep.
Seemed like he wasn't having too good of a day. Chibiusa frowned and cocked her head, wondering why the teacher seemed so down on the first day. After roll call, he told everyone to opening up their English books and to begin reading. He randomly picked students to read. Misa was next to read and as she stood up; she sighed and tried to read the little paragraph. Chibiusa could tell Misa was trying her best. Misa sighed after finishing the paragraph and sat down with her cheeks blushing slightly. Chibiusa sent an encouraging smile over to Misa. Lunch time came around and Chibiusa couldn't wait to open up the lunchbox Makoto packed for her. Sitting next to Misa, they began chatting about rumors going around the palace.
"Hey! Did you hear? My mom said that Makoto's unborn child is actually a boy!" Misa said happily.
"Ya, she isn't due until June and it's only May so she has at least a month left until the child is ready to come out into the world." Chibiusa said after biting into the rice ball that was in her lunchbox.
"Also! I have heard that your papa actually has a sibling! I am uncertain if it's true though."
"I've heard, but we don't even know if it's possible. Papa still can't remember a lot of details from before his parent's died."
Chibiusa shrunk in her chair and sighed. Honestly, she would love to have an auntie or uncle from her papa's side. Misa ate up her curry rice with the look of satisfaction on her face; seemed like she really enjoyed her curry rice.
"M-May I sit with you guys?" A young girl appeared by their sides with a lunchbox in her hands.
"Oh! Sure!" Misa replied immediately.
Chibiusa studied this new girl's appearance and smiled. She was quite shy, just like Ami once was. The girl's indigo braided pigtails hung over her chest and down to her hips. Her big innocent sky blue eyes gazed down at them nervously. Chibiusa smiled at the new girl and patted the empty chair next to her.
"Come join us." Chibiusa said.
The girl sat next to Chibiusa with her lunch and opened it up to reveal tons of yumminess inside. Chibiusa couldn't help but to drool.
"Looks pretty yummy…" Chibiusa said.
"Thanks…" She chuckled shyly.
"So…what's your name?" Misa asked curiously.
"Oh! Forgive me; I forgot to mention my name." The girl panicked. "I'm Aiko."
"Hi Aiko! It's nice to meet you!" Both Chibiusa and Misa said together.
Aiko smiled shyly and nodded their way. She seemed like a nice girl and she was quite beautiful too. Chibiusa really believed that Aiko should open her heart more towards others; she was for sure Aiko would make tons of friends if she wasn't so shy. They ate their lunches while laughing and chatting away. Occasionally, they would ask Aiko a few questions, including a few "What if?" questions to make it a whole lot more fun. One of the students approached them with a smile plaster across her face.
"Hey, Misa! I heard you got top score on your exams!" The girl said giggling.
"Ya, it was no big deal though." Misa laughed.
"Wow, you scored high?" Chibiusa asked in awe.
"Seriously, it wasn't that big of an issue. I just studied extra hard, that's all." Misa said with a silly grin upon her cheerful face.
Chibiusa knew that Misa admired Ami a lot and tried her best to be just as good as her. There were times though that Misa's mother would say that she should be more like her mother, but that didn't get in the way of Misa's dreams. Misa wanted to become a scientist one day. In the past, her dream was to become a doctor, but over the years she had changed her mind and now she was focused on becoming a scientist.
"Wow, I wish I could be more like you Misa…" Chibiusa said.
Before lunchtime was completely over, a scream sounded out in the hallway. Everyone turned their heads in the direction of the door.
"What was that?" One student muttered.
"I-I don't know…" Another one said worriedly.
"Maybe we should go check…" Misa said with a frown.
Another scream echoed out in the hallway, followed by more along with the sound of people running. Chibiusa swallowed hard as she put down her lunchbox and slowly stood up. She really was hoping this didn't mean she had to get back into the scout business. They were having such a wonderful and peaceful life until now. Chibiusa grabbed her bag and reached inside. Pulling out her broach, she headed for the door.
Please let it be no big deal…She thought to herself.
Biting her lip, she exited the classroom and into the hallway. Students were running away from something, she could clearly see that. Stopping one student, she asked, "What's wrong?"
The student's facial features were of heart wrenching fear. With a scream, the student yanked out of Chibiusa's grip and ran away. What was going on? Taking a deep breath, Chibiusa went down the hallway. Some students screamed for her to run away, but she ignored their cries of warning. She had to do this. With a gasp, she saw what they were so afraid of. A woman stood at the end of the hall with her arms raised high while laughing hysterically. Her pale blonde hair whipped around as if there was wind blowing, but there was none. The dress that clung to her form was long and red, like the color of blood. Chibiusa didn't like where this was going, not one bit.
"Hey you!" Chbiusa shouted. "You shouldn't harm others and expect to get away with it!"
The woman suddenly stopped laughing and looked at her with those pale blue eyes. Her blood red lips curled upwards with a grin. Chibiusa gasped when she saw the mark upon her forehead. Double crescent moons glowed upon her forehead, one black and one bright yellow like hers. One resembled the dark moon and the other resembled Chibiusa's own crescent mark. What was the meaning of this? Who was this woman? What was her purpose? Chibiusa could tell this woman wasn't planning on making the world a peaceful place. Chibiusa gritted her teeth once noticing the students that lay on the floor around this woman. A dark aura surrounded her, intensifying until Chibiusa couldn't take it anymore.
"Little girl, you really should mind your own business." The woman laughed wickedly.
"You asked for this!" Chibiusa said as she raised up her broach. "Pink Moon Crystal Power, Make Up!"
A bright light surrounded Chibiusa and within seconds, Eternal Sailor Chibi moon stood in her place. Doing her stance, she pointed at the new enemy with a look of determination on her face.
"I fight for justice and love. In the name of the moon, I will most definitely punish you!" She said.
The woman snickered before throwing back her head and laughing; seemed like she wanted to get on Eternal sailor Chibi moon's nerves. Fisting her hands by her sides, she frowned with irritation.
"Little girl, you should go back home to mommy!" The woman laughed.
"I am not little!" Eternal sailor Chibi moon shouted. "I am almost seventeen!"
"Still little to me!" The woman grinned. "What can you do anyways? Especially in that cute little pink sailor outfit?"
"I can do a lot!" Sailor Chibi moon pulled off her tiara. "Tiara Frisbee!"
Taking off her tiara, it began to spin, forming into an oval shape of pure light. Eternal Chibi moon tossed the disk at her enemy and gasped when this woman flung it away as if it were a feather. Her tiara collapsed against the nearby wall and onto the floor, back into its original form. Biting her lip, she stood her ground and tried to think of a strategy. How was she supposed to fight this enemy? Her mother no longer had the power to transform into sailor moon, so it was all up to her now.
What to do…what to do? Eternal sailor chibi moon groaned inwardly.
