AN: Some events may be out of order in this story. I have chosen to add in some of the Anime Youma, and some of my own creations, as well as a few plot twists. I think people will enjoy them! I am also creating a new character... though I am not sure when this character will appear. I really hope you all like this chapter. If you do, please review. If you have suggestions, also, please review, or simply message me.

AN2: You may have noticed major changes from my other writing with this story. I assure you it is purely intentional. Usagi is a fourteen year old girl, not a married 35 year old with a grown child. She doesn't write like an adult. No one should expect her to. PS... I channeled my own fourteen-year-old self to write this. Picturing myself in her shoes was fun and interesting.

Sailor Moon's Horrifying Adventures
Week Three

Monday (Day 15)

Dear Diary,

Mamoru and I are officially dating. Apparently this is a really big deal to every freaking female in the Juuban district. Girls I have never even met kept coming up to me all afternoon asking how I did it! I can't exactly tell them you have to be his soulmate to get his attention, but I couldn't think of anything to say, so I just told them I love him.

He has never dated anyone before, and his first kiss was mine too! So I guess he really didn't steal it. Hee hee. He says he just borrowed it and now we have to share. It was really kind of cute, but Luna rolled her eyes at us!

So I have to tell you how all of this came about...

He walked up the sidewalk to the house this morning, bold as you please, and knocked on the door before I was even awake! Apparently he talked to my dad this morning and asked his permission to date me, before he even asked me if I wanted to date him! I have to admit I was a little annoyed, but my dad ACTUALLY LIKES HIM! What on earth they said to each other, I will never know, but he was invited to dinner at my house.

Well, while he and my dad are talking my mother storms into my room to get me up and showered and dressed. She even helped me with my hair this morning. She hasn't done that in a long time. She gave me strawberry lip gloss! Wow! I think my parents have been replaced by pod-people. Have you seen that movie? Freaky!

Anyways, so she tells me Mamoru is talking to dad and I start to freak out thinking I'm going to find his severed head in my breakfast bowl, but I get downstairs and the two of them are drinking coffee and debating about some article in the paper, happy as you please! What on earth is going on here? So I sit down to breakfast, which is rare for me, but with my mom all freaked out I had woken up pretty quick. I actually went to school with a full stomach for once! Weird, right?

So then Mamoru bows to my parents and walks me outside and he says he is going to be walking me to school from now on and asks if I am willing to be his girlfriend. He tells me my dad said it was okay and I think I nearly fainted when he said that. I looked back at my house and both my parents are smiling and waving, and poor Shingo looks just as shell-shocked as me. He shrugs when he meets my eyes and I shrug too because we know our parents.

So then I look at Mamoru and I nod my head and he kisses my cheek and I look back at my dad, and HE'S STILL SMILING! What on earth!? I mean seriously, pod-people!

Mamoru grabs my hand and walks me to school and he tells me that he will meet me at the arcade since I wont have detention, which means I will get out of school first for once. And the whole time, I'm thinking maybe I'm actually delirious or dreaming or something, but he just keeps holding my hand and walking right up to the gate of my school. And EVERYONE starts looking at us. Even the teachers were at their classroom windows. It was a bit strange.

So he leans in and gives me the sweetest kiss on the mouth, and I couldn't help but kiss him back. It lasted a few minutes, and by the time we parted I thought maybe I would pass out from lack of oxygen. Let me just put this out there... he tastes really good. Like coffee and chocolate. He only used his tongue a little, so it wasn't really gross or anything. It was actually really sweet and romantic.

He put his hand on my cheek and told me to have a good day. And I'm standing there staring at him as he walks away, until Naru, who was screaming like a crazy person, comes running up to me to make me tell her every detail. I left out the fighting parts and the dreams but I told her pretty much all the rest. She totally freaked out in a good way. And all day everyone keeps coming up to me and asking how I am dating a high school boy!

So meanwhile, Mamoru gets to the arcade and meets up with Motoki, and tells him he is dating me. Motoki laughs at him and tells him he'd already figured out we liked each other. So they go to school and they are still talking about the conversation with my dad, which neither one of them will tell me about, and I guess people overheard and pretty soon everyone knows the completely unattainable Chiba Mamoru is actually dating, and "worse" (according to one of the girls who approached me in the bathroom at the arcade) he's dating a middle schooler and says he's in love.

So when I get out of school everything is fine... until the high school lets out. I guess a whole bunch of people surrounded Mamoru to ask him about me, and how he got my dad to let him date me.

By the time he got to the arcade I was, unfortunately, surrounded. All these high school girls were trying to tell me I had to break up with him and tell him to date them instead, and it really freaked me out. Naru was actually getting pretty pushy, telling people to back off and leave me alone.

Then Mamoru comes charging through the crowd and tells everyone to go away, and Motoki says if anyone else gets near me he will kick them out of the arcade! I mean, wow! So then Mamoru brings me over to the counter with Naru and Umino, and it's just the four of us and Motoki on the side closest to the break room and furthest from the door, so we can watch people coming and going.

Mamoru got me a triple chocolate shake, which I'd never had before, and tells me he has a secret addiction to chocolate, which is really cute! He ended up helping me with my math and English homework. The way he showed me I actually understood it. And the whole time he keeps finding reasons to touch my hand or my hair or my back, and it gave me the shivers, and made me feel special and pretty.

After Naru and Umino left, and while Motoki was busy serving customers, Mamoru asked me why I was crying the first time he kissed me. I explained that it had been my first kiss and he was being scary so it wasn't like I'd imagined it to be. He got really sad and upset with himself, and then he grinned at me and told me it was his first kiss too. And he leans in and says he didn't steal the kiss, he just borrowed it, and I can have it back.

He puts one hand on my cheek and the other at the back of my neck and he pulls me toward him, but then stops and I know he's waiting for me to decide if I really want to kiss him. I do, of course, so I lean in and our lips meet and then he licks my lips and then his tongue is in my mouth and I feel like I'm floating away to heaven, and he pulls back so we can breathe and then kisses again and again. He tells me we can borrow each others kisses forever, and it just made me melt. He is really good at making me feel special.

So then he walks me home, and he carries my bag and everything. He even helped me with my chores, which made them go by really fast. Then he created this whole bouquet of flowers for my mom, and another one of pink roses for me. I tied them up with a ribbon and put them in water. It just made me feel so good and warm inside my chest. And my mom says he's a charmer and that she liked what he said to my dad, but when I asked what he said, neither of them would tell me.

Even Shingo likes him! That I did not expect, but when Mamoru confessed he'd never played video games before, Shingo made him play Sailor V with him until dinner, and the two of them were laughing in the living room while I helped my mom in the kitchen. AND I DIDN'T BREAK ANYTHING!

Its actually really sad though, the reason Mamoru never played video games before. When Shingo said that to my parents, my mom asked him how someone his age had never played before, and he admitted he was raised in an orphanage. His parents died in a car crash on his sixth birthday. I couldn't help crying and just hugging him. So then my mother said he could call her Ikuko-mama, and he cried too and hugged her for a long time, and my dad patted him on the back. It was really sweet, but so very sad.

When dinner was over he said he had to go do his homework, and my mom didn't want him to leave since she found out he lived alone, but he said he was okay. She made him promise to call when he got home to let us all know he was safe and he blushed and hugged her again, then kissed me on the cheek and ran out.

So now, here I am, ready for bed, and all I can think about is Mamoru.

Tuesday (Day 16)

Dear Diary,

Dating is fun and interesting. Being a superhero sucks. But dating another superhero who fights alongside you tends to make it easier to bear. There are some things about it that are... different though. We had to fight this one weird one at about four in the morning. It looked somewhat like a human, but it had toys all over it. It was roaming around near the shopping district, outside a toy store. There were no stories of anyone hurt or anything. It just seemed to appear out of nowhere.

So I feel this gross feeling and I know I have to go, but I call Mamoru from the phone before I leave. Luna says she's going to get us some communicators today. Anyways, back to my story. I called Mamoru and he tells me that he can actually feel when I transform, but that he's really glad that I called him. So I jump out my window, which is actually pretty cool, and I meet him on the roof of the toy store and we just watch it for a minute since there are no people around to get hurt.

Mamoru suggests that I just use my tiara action without even announcing myself, which may not be very sporting, but considering the things want to suck all the energy out of every human they meet, I guess it isn't really a big deal. I grabbed the tiara and he stops me and tells me to whisper my attack, so I do and the tiara glows with the same amount of power when I throw it, so I'm really glad he suggested it. It destroyed the Youma and neither of us was in any danger for even a second. That made me feel good, because the thought of him getting hurt...

Anyways, so here I am, back at home. He came back with me and stayed until I was safely in my bedroom before he left. I decided since it was already close to six it just wasn't worth it to go back to sleep, so I figured I would write in my diary, and had extra time to get ready for school. So that's what I'm doing now. Hee hee!

Wednesday (Day 17)

Dear Diary,

Okay, so one of the weird things about being a superhero is that I am even hungrier than I used to be! I don't tend to gain weight very well. I have a high metabolism. I sure hope I spelled that right. I've always been a bit underweight, so it's not like it's a new thing. Except now I'm losing weight, and it's really upsetting my mom and dad, and even Mamoru. I've only been doing this for a few weeks, but already I've lost seven pounds. Luna says she thinks it has something to do with the energy it takes to transform and the energy and exercise from fighting.

It was really funny. She actually started calling me her little piggy! I laughed so hard! I really love Luna, even though she can be a bit bossy and a lot overprotective.

Well, anyways, I was talking with Naru about the problem at school. My mom is taking me to the doctor again this afternoon to see about getting a prescription for these shakes I used to have when I was little and wasn't growing very fast. Naru says she noticed my weight loss, and was worried.

Well Umino overheard all this, and he starts talking about how some people have the opposite problem and how our teacher Haruna-sensei is going to a gym and she's finally losing weight. To be honest I don't think she's overweight and I kind of snapped at Umino because I think it's rude to judge people based on their weight.

So, yeah. That was my school day. Mamoru met me at the arcade and we waited there for my mom to pick us up. He actually went with us to my doctor's appointment and he had a whole bunch of questions about foods that help people gain weight. He told the doctor how I eat a whole bunch but I'm still losing weight. They ran a bunch of tests and some of it was on my thyroid again, but there were others and it was frustrating and took a long time.

Eventually they gave me two prescriptions. I have a medicine I have to take before breakfast every day and I have to drink those shakes again at least twice a day, but Doctor Mizuno says she wants me to try to drink four a day! That kind of sucks, but when my mom brought us to pick them up they have like four new flavors so she got a whole bunch of flavors.

Mamoru stayed over for dinner, and helped me with my homework. He's been doing that since Monday, which is awesome because the way he says things I understand them. My family likes Mamoru as much as me, so that makes me happy. He only ever kisses me on the cheek in front of my father. I asked him why and he says because my dad asked him to. Which surprised me. That he and my dad talked about him kissing me, I mean. Who would have ever believed my dad would let that happen?

Anyways, Luna says I should probably get to sleep, so I will write more tomorrow.

Thursday (Day 18)

Dear Diary,

So Naru is now going to the same gym as Haruna-sensei. A bunch of girls are going apparently. They wanted me to go with them, but I just cant. I cant lose any more weight. As it is, Mamoru and I do training every night now, and I have to patrol the city and fight big scary, sometimes slimy monsters and it uses a lot of energy, so I have to drink stupid shakes. The doctor says if I don't gain weight it will mean more treatments.

Mamoru started making me all these weird snacks last night and he brought them this morning. I guess he asked the doctor and then also did a bunch of research. The weirdest one is actually the best tasting. He says it's his own blend of something he calls pemmican. It's an ancient Native American food he found online. Back when they made it they had buffalo and elk and stuff, but he used pork. Anyways it is a mixture of meat and fat and he added some fruit to it so it would taste good. And it really did! He made other things too, but it was the best and he says now he knows how he can make it again.

He showed it to my mom and she got really interested in it and started asking questions and they talked about cooking for a bit before we left for school. He always walks me to the gate and kisses me goodbye. Then he uses the new communicators to check on me at lunch time.

I forgot to tell you about those! Okay, so they look a bit like a watch, but if you flip up the watch face there's a screen on one side and keypad on the other. On the watch face are a bunch of planetary symbols (Luna says they belong to the other Senshi) and his is the earth and mine is the moon. Then there are the symbols for the directions, North, South, East, and West. She says these belong to the Shitennou. There's one for the sun too, and another moon one, but that one is blue for some reason. Luna wasn't sure why. She said she didn't remember why it was there, but that she felt like she had to add it. Weird right? If I press one button on the keypad a full keyboard appears, but it's kind of like a hologram I can touch.

So anyways, he always checks on me and reminds me to eat and drink my shake and sees how my day is going. Anyways, today at lunch I was having a really rough time because Umino and some of the other boys were acting strange. They were mean to the girls and I think Umino was trying to kiss me. And Naru was acting so tired and so was Haruna-Sensei, but then Umino was really mean to her and she fell and she didn't wake up so they sent us out to lunch early, and then when Mamoru called I was crying.

We'd already been outside for about twenty minutes and Umino had pushed me up against a fence to try and kiss me, and I'd had to run away from him. Something strange is going on, and I don't understand it. So as soon as I answered Mamoru he checked himself out of school and came to get me. He called my mom and she checked me out too and he brought me to the arcade for a shake and I told him about what was going on.

Luna met up with us and we went into the command center. When we looked over a map of Tokyo we could see dark spots spreading out from the gym and from this fortune teller place. That has never happened before, according to Luna. She says she thinks it is because our power is growing and the computers are linked to our power somehow. So we went to the fortune teller place because the boys are scary and we know Haruna-sensei went to the gym.

We found a Youma and Mamoru and Luna talked and Mamoru suggested that this time I call out my presence so we could be sure who the Youma was disguised as before attacking. We wouldn't want to attack a human. So we, already henshined of course, both called out and demanded the Youma show itself, and it was the fortune teller, and Mamoru threw a rose at it and I threw my tiara at the same time. Mamoru's rose made a vine thing come out of it and surrounded the Youma so it couldn't fight and my tiara destroyed it.

Then we had to go to the gym, and guess who I found there? Can you guess? I bet you can! NARU! What the heck? Why is she always around when there is an attack? She seems to get targeted a lot. And I asked if it was my fault, but Luna and Mamoru think it's just because the attacks seem to be concentrated in the same area.

Anyways, she was in this weird chamber that was sucking her energy, along with a couple other girls from my class. I confronted the weird person in charge of the gym and he set these normal people on us, but there were these bands on their heads that were brainwashing them, so I had to break the bands, and to be honest it wasn't easy. I had to use my tiara and make sure I didn't hurt them when I threw it. I had to ricochet them one to the other, and it was much more a mental thing than I ever could have imagined. I can tell my tiara exactly what I want it to do.

So finally I had destroyed the bands and I was really relieved. I got Naru and the others out of the chambers they were in, and laid them out on the ground, but then the guy in charge came back and he was mad that the guys he had set against me were no longer under his control. He started screaming at Mamoru and me, and suddenly I remembered him. Not just from the other fights. No I really remembered him.

I told you about all the dreams, and the prince's guard right? The four generals... Yeah... he was one of them. But now he was fighting for the other side because he had been brainwashed, and I started crying as soon as I recognized him, and he said he couldn't believe a crybaby had beaten him, and then he was going to disappear, but I begged him to wait and he took a step closer to me, and I knew it really was him.

I asked him if he remembered us, and Mamoru gave me a strange look and then he looked back at the guy, whose name is Jadeite. And he gasps really loud and covers his mouth, and I knew Mamoru was remembering too, and he holds out his other hand to the other man, and tells him we can save him, but Jadeite just disappeared.

So even though we saved and healed a bunch of people I am feeling really sad. I can't believe the Negaverse already has one of the Shitennou. I wonder if the others are safe or if they were taken too.

Friday (Day 19)

Dear Diary,

Tonight I am going on my first official date with Mamoru. He is taking me out to eat and see a movie. I'm really excited and can't seem to sit still this afternoon. He brought me straight home after school so we could both get ready. I did have enough time to drink a milkshake though, before he and Motoki showed up at the arcade when they got out, so that was nice.

My mom will be up in a minute, and she says she's going to let me wear mascara and eye shadow. She's going to teach me how to put on make-up! I can't even believe it! She used to say she wouldn't let me use it until I was fifteen, but she says she knows Mamoru will be respectful. That makes me happy.

CONTINUED

Okay, so let me tell you all about my date. Mamoru picked me up at six, and my dad told him to have me back at ten-thirty and to call if we would be late. Mamoru nodded that he would, and he grabbed my hand and led me out to his car. I didn't even know he had a car! I never thought to ask about it. He took me to a place that serves Italian food, and we had spaghetti. I like food from other cultures. Don't tell anyone, but I'm not a sushi fan. Hee hee!

Dinner was great, and Mamoru and I talked and laughed and had a wonderful time, and then he took me to see a movie, which was awesome. He had me home at ten-fifteen, and he kissed me before we got out of the car, but then when he walked me to the door he kissed my cheek again. My mom and dad were peeking out from the living room window, and both of us could tell, so we laughed.

I mean it was just a great date. Like how he kept touching my hand and kissing my palm, and how he played with my hair, and how in the theater he wrapped his arm around me, and how neither of us could tell you what we watched because we spent the whole movie kissing.

Saturday (Day 20)

Dear Diary,

Shingo really upset me today. He went and got this weird pet called a Chanela. As soon as he had it he started acting strange. Like he was unable to do anything but look away from the thing. I admit it was soft and smelled good, but something was wrong with it, and I could tell Shingo was getting weaker and weaker. Mom and I were freaking out. He didn't even get up to play Sailor V! That was scary.

Luna and I looked at each other and I told my mom I was going to try and find out what was going on. She gave me a strange look, but I had to let her know! I just had to! So I left and called Mamoru on the communicator, and we went to where I was feeling a strange energy coming from and there was a pet shop with a whole bunch of the strange creatures.

It turned out that the shop owner had been knocked out and hidden in the back room, only to be replaced by a look-alike who was selling the creatures to everyone. When she finally closed the shop we were still hidden inside and she started saying strange words about making the Chanelas collect energy for the Negaverse, so I took her out with my tiara.

When I got home Shingo didn't even remember the strange pet. I met my mother's eyes and nodded and I think she might know my secret now. Mamoru had come back with me and he ate dinner with us. I really want to tell my mother about being Sailor Moon. I know Luna thinks it's a bad idea, but Mamoru, who adores her and calls her Ikuko-mama says she deserves to know the truth.

CONTINUED

It is really late, and my mom just left my room. I had to tell her. The truth is she already knew though. At least some of it. Mamoru had talked to my dad about how I was special and was a protector, and the two of them had talked and she figured I was Sailor Moon and told him so, and now they both know, and my mom hugged me and thanked me for saving Shingo and made me promise to be really careful. She says tomorrow we will all talk about it, and Luna agreed to explain it to them both, and Mamoru is going to come over right after Shingo goes to his friend's house.

Sunday (Day 21)

Dear Diary,

It's been a very long day! Shingo left right after breakfast, and Mamoru came over and Luna and I went downstairs and talked to my parents with him. It was a long discussion, and I showed them my Sailor Moon henshin, and Mamoru showed them his Tuxedo Kamen henshin, and Luna explained that there were others, and then she also told them she thought we were the reincarnated prince and princess, which surprised me and Mamoru, because even though we both suspected it, we hadn't really said anything to Luna. She said the Shitennou were the prince's protectors, and the inner Senshi were the princesses protectors, and that as soon as we found them we would all be safer.

Anyways, after that, Luna gave my parents a special communicator that they could use to contact us, and that we could send a note to when we were done with a battle. My dad was really worried. He had figured some of it out based on his discussion with Mamoru, but he still wouldn't tell me the rest of the talk they had, even after Mamoru left. He just said it was man-talk, whatever that means.

So, Mamoru stayed for dinner, and Shingo came home then, and he was really excited to see Mamoru and the three of us played Sailor V. Mamoru helped me with my homework and then he went home, and now I am sitting in my room and I am really tired. It wasn't physically demanding today, but emotionally I feel wrung out!
