Jumping for Victory

Rini POV

School was so depressing today. In gym class I wasn't able to do my best without cheating and using my Saiyan abilities. If I ever did this at the school fair, Grandma and Grandpa would be so mad at me for cheating. And it wouldn't feel right either if I did. In gym class we have a fair every year, and each student had to participate or fail the class. My thing was jumping over the Vaulting horse. It was so hard without cheating! I almost did today in class, and if I did someone would have come to investigate and see what was wrong… I started walking slower once I saw the fair set up not too far. I started hearing my name being called. I looked up and it was boy from my class. His name was Kelly and he was super annoying. He was always trying to oust-shine me in everything I do. He was practicing his jump and when he landed he did so right in front of me.

"So you ready for the big fair tomorrow Rini?" he asks with a grin.

"Yeah. And I'm gonna kick your butt Kelly." I told him as I started to walk off. He didn't follow me. How am I gonna jump over that thing without using any Saiyan energy? It was practically impossible. I know I can be athletic when I want to be, but sometimes I can act like my mother and be a total klutz. As I was about to start flying home, I heard my name being called again. It was Darien, Serena, Lita and Mina. What did they want? I stopped walking so they can catch up to me. Serena noticed my depression.

"What's wrong Rini?" Serena worried. I sighed, wishing I didn't have to tell them.

"in school we have a sports fair coming up, we all have to compete in an obstacle course and I can't get over the Vaulting horse without using any of my Saiyan energy." I said as I began to pout. Serena perked right up as she thought of an idea.

"I know, let's go over to Grandpa's!" she said smiling. Everyone immediately backed off the idea. For some reason Great Grandpa V can't stand Darien. He can tolerate the girls though for some reason. "Oh come on, he doesn't have to help, we can make a mini obstacle course for Rini and Grandpa V can stay out of the way!" she said thinking it was a full proof plan. No one was going to argue with Serena. When we got there, Grandpa Vegeta was off in the gravity chamber, and Grandma Bulma was nowhere to be found. Only Great Aunt Bulla was nearby. She stayed and helped.

"So what do you say Aunt Bulla?" Serena wondered. Aunt Bulla smiled as she laid on the floor answering our question for help. Serena laid a good few away from her aunt and I was on the other side of the room. Darien was at the other end of the two and Lita and Mina were on the opposite side of Darien. I closed my eyes as I began to concentrate. As I was trying to do so Mina was shouting words of encouragement. They were distracting me. I was eventually able to ignore Mina and I started running. I was able to jump over Aunt Bulla with ease. She was scared out of her mind as I did though. As I was about to jump over to Serena, Mina started yelling more words of encouragement.

"You can do it Rini! Just think your jumping into the arms of someone you love!" she shouted. This caught both me and Serena off guard. As I was about to jump over her, she had gotten up. If Mina hadn't said what she did, I would've been able to jump over her! When Serena got up she bumped into my head and I was bounced back off of my feet and into Aunt Bulla. Somehow she managed to catch me before I could do any damage to her. As I was arguing with Serena, Grandpa Vegeta came to investigate all of the yelling. I didn't realize how loud we were being.

"What the devil is going on here?" Grandpa Vegeta barked. Serena and I immediately quieted down as he entered the room. Serena stood up for everyone in the room. For some reason she is one of the few people he will listen too.

"Sorry Gramps! We were just helping Rini with a sport competition tomorrow!" she exclaimed while showing her nervous tick. He bought her explanation as he noticed Darien, Lita and Mina. They were starting to get creeped out by him. Why does he have to be so mean to them? They never did anything to him…

"We were just leaving Vegeta!" Darien said as he started bolting for the door. Mina and Lita were about to follow suit just by the looks on there faces.

"Yeah, I have some cleaning to do around the house and of course homework. See you girls around!" Lita said as she chased after Darien. Mina was the only one left, standing in fear of him. She was cowering towards the door.

"Um, I'm just gonna leave. See ya!" she said running for the door. All of us girls sighed as we watched them all leave. I swear I'm surprised I even have friends thanks to him. I think Grandma Bulma may have reasoned with him on that one.

"Daddy, why did you make them run off?" Aunt Bulla asked as he was about to go back to training.

"They were disrupting my training." He said as he went back to the gravity chamber. Maybe it was a bad idea coming here…. Serena and I decided on staying the night since it has been weeks since we have last seen them. All throughout dinner it was almost like the silent game between Serena and Grandpa Vegeta. Neither would speak to the other no matter how much we tried. As I was trying to fall asleep I noticed I left a group picture of me, Darien and Serena. I folded the side with Serena's face and I started jumping on my bed. Mina was right; this was the best motivation yet! As I was jumping up and down I heard someone calling my name. I looked at my door and no one was there, everyone should be asleep by now…when I turned around I noticed that Pegasus was in his orb! I landed back on my bed and started blushing like crazy. How much did Pegasus see?

"What are you doing young one?" he asked as I put the photo behind me. Still blushing like a maniac. I started showing my nervous tick as I gave my reason.

"Oh nothing Pegasus! I was just practicing for our sports competition tomorrow. The event I'm having trouble is jumping!" I explained as I was blushing. After a while of calming down, we chatted like we normally do when I'm here and then eventually he disappeared like he did every night. I fell asleep instantly after he went away, still clutching the photo of us three.

Jun Jun POV

Finally I get my own mission and it seems like this kid might have the golden dream mirror. From what I have seen this kid has a lot of determination and will power to be practicing non-stop for the last five hours. No wonder Zirconia picked him to be the next target. As Kelly was about to go over the vaulting horse he somehow slipped and fell on his back. This was starting to get a little to repetitive for me. With a snap of my fingers I summoned a cage around Kelly. He was starting to get scared. Good. With another snap I summoned a gigantic grizzly bear. The bear started chasing the boy around the cage and in doing so Kelly was able to finally jump over the vaulting horse. I made the bear and cage disappear to give him a moments rest before I took his dream mirror. Kelly looked around, to see if it was an illusion. Then he looked at the vaulting horse and started cheering. I smiled just a tiny bit.

"Yeah! I finally did it! Now I can beat Rini!" he cheered. Who the heck was Rini? Must be a girl he has a crush on or something. I got out of my civilian clothes and finally made myself known. Before he could even react I attacked him with my green ball. I aimed for him, and it went straight through his body. Kelly collapsed on the ground as his mirror was standing above him. Darn it, it wasn't the Golden Dream Mirror! Zirconia and my sisters were going to kill me once I got back to the tent…but then, in a way, I'm glad his dream mirror wasn't the one…I snapped my fingers again summoning a Remless this time. This one was one of my favorites. It was jumping Remless that can reflect most attacks. There is no way the Sailor Soldiers are able to defeat him. As I was about to leave for the tent again, I heard someone talking. Speaking of the witch herself. Sailor Moon and her followers were with her. Before they could say anything I went back to Dead Moon Circus.

Rini POV

The girl in green left as soon as we got there. The Remless was still in the air and so was Kelly's dream mirror. All of us were trying to attack him, but nothing seemed to work. Sailor Mars eventually got bored with this and used her own attack.

"Mars Flame Sniper!" she yelled as she aimed for the Remless, Jumper. Jumper used some of his wind ability and with that, was able to send Sailor Mars' attack back at her. When I turned to her she was severely damaged. So he was able to send back attacks? That's just great. Whenever Sailor Moon and I would try to use a ki blast, we would miss every single time. This Remless was starting to tick me off. I started running to Jumper. All of the girls stopped attacking as I was finally able to get on his back. From where I was, I grabbed my bell.

"Crystal Twinkle Bell!" I yelled for Pegasus. As Sailor Moon was about to prepare her attack, I jumped off of it.

"Moon Gorgeous Meditation!' lights illuminated from her wand and the Remless was destroyed. After I made sure the cost was clear, I rushed the mirror back into Kelly's body. His skin color was slowly coming back.

The day after the attack was when the obstacle was held. Everyone in my family showed, and surprisingly so did Grandpa V. As I was competing, I noticed that all my family had made signs o support me and my event. Like this didn't help my nervousness. Now that my whole entire family is here I know I can't use my Saiyan energy at all. I would be in so much trouble from all Grandmothers'…maybe even Uncle's too. As the obstacle course began for my division, I never realized how easy it was. Maybe I was just making this into a bigger deal then need. When the competing children finally reached the vaulting horse, I started becoming tense. But seeing the signs my family had made for me, made me forget about the whole thing…gun fire sounded and I started running. I jumped over all four of them with ease! As I looked behind me to the other girls, I noticed they were way behind me. How fast was I going? Was I using some of the Saiyan energy? When I looked to the guys, they just smiled, confirming my worry. When the awards being given out, I had made first place! I wasn't the only one either. Kelly had made first place of his division as well. I guess we both got what we wanted.

"Congrats Kelly." I said as I shook his hand. He shook back.

"Yeah, same to you Rini. Even though I did better then you!" he said as he started running away, while sticking his tongue at me. I started chasing after him, hoping to catch that annoying boy.
