Surprise

AN: Usagi ChibiUsa, Arlene Sailor Ceres, and Kamaria Sailor Vesta

"Come on! We've got to hurry!" Arlene dragged Usagi down the hallway. "Kamaria and the others are already waiting for us."

Usagi let herself be dragged, but she still had no clue what the rush was. "Why are we in a hurry? I mean there is nothing special about a ballroom." A thought crossed her mind that did speed up her steps. "Did Luna set up dance lessons I didn't hear about?"

Arlene just smiled back at her. As they rounded a corner, Usagi began to wonder where they were heading. 'There are no ballrooms this way. Did she learn a short cut that I don't know about?' Usagi was sure she had learned all the ins and outs of the palace after nine hundred years of exploring its corridors.

They finally stopped. Usagi stared at the closed door with a puzzled expression. "This isn't a ballroom. This is one of the unused storage rooms."

Arlene just grinned the mysterious smile she had been wearing since she had fetched Usagi. Opening the door to the room, she gently pushed her reluctant princess through it. Usagi stared about her as understanding dawned. All about her were balls. There was a ball pit against the far wall. A billiards table was set up on another wall. An arcade style basket ball hoop was next to the ball pit. The seats in the room were all bean bags designed to look like different sports balls.

Arlene gently closed the door behind them. The three other girls standing near the billiards table watched to see how Usagi reacted to their surprise.

Looking at her friends, Usagi gave into the grin that was trying to fight its way out. "Oh! Not a ballroom, but a ball room!" They all dissolved into laughter.
