Role Model
Disclaimer: I don't own the
Sailor Moon characters. Naoko Takeuchi does. But I do own the idea, as well as
the second generation of Scouts that I created, and this excludes Rini/Small
Lady/Serena because I didn't create her. ^_^ Got it?
Notes: This is set right
after the season where Helios shows up. I will use American names and spellings
because I don't know the others. And to further confuse you, I'm gonna call
Rini Serena from chapter 3 until the end. (O.o) If you can't keep up, I'll
switch it back.
Warnings: Character death. I'm not sure if there are any more, except for maybe language and some violence. Usual couples...including Amara and Michelle. (In my little world, the American versions aren't cousins) And, of course, some Serena (Meatball head Serena, not cotton-candy head, as Rini is so lovingly referred to) bashing. ^_^ Oh, and I hope this doesn't come up but maybe some OOCness.
Chapter 8: The Story Revealed
"We're all from
Rini's time," said Carmen, who was the oldest of the unknown Mini-Scouts
and could probably tell the story best.
"Sorry, but we can't
tell you very much 'cause it'll affect your future…that's what Sailor Pluto
said, isn't it?" Anna wondered.
"Exactly," Rini
told her.
I still don't get why
Senna didn't come," Justin muttered.
"You're just mad
because you think she's hot," Allen said with a grin. "Admit
it!" Justin's cheeks turned bright red and he didn't say anything.
"Alright,
enough," Lita said seriously. "I want to know exactly who you
are…right now." The younger children looked at each other.
"Rini, should we
tell?" Anna asked.
"I…I don't
know," Rini whispered.
"Rini, you are the future leader of the Sailor Scouts and of Crystal Tokyo; take some responsibility!"
"Senna?!" Rini
exclaimed. But the others apparently didn't hear the voice, so she sighed and
asked mentally,
"Senna, what do you mean?"
"Really Rini, you're not going to be a good leader if you keep this up. Don't be so indecisive; take some responsibility for your actions."
"I'll try," Rini
thought.
"I think that
we…should tell the Scouts what's going on," she said aloud to her friends.
"Okay then, here
goes…" Carmen muttered. "My name's Carmen, and I think you already
know that. I'm Sailor Mini-Jupiter. Rini is Sailor Moon in our time. Celia is
Mini-Mars, Anna is Mini-Mercury, and Farrah is Mini-Jupiter."
"How did you guys
become Sailor Scouts?" Serena asked.
"Well, we're…uh…your,
ah…someone else explain," Carmen said hastily.
"We're your daughters
from the future," Anna said innocently. "So you taught us all you
knew about being Scouts and we fight with you."
"Waitaminute, you're
saying that we all have kids in the future?!" Lita exclaimed.
"What about me?"
Mina asked. "I don't have a kid?"
"Well, that's not
exactly true," Allen said. "You, uh, won't have a daughter…"
"Then who…YOU?!
Uhhh…I think I'm gonna pass out!"
"Sailor Uranus and
Neptune are…well, you know," Raye said. "So how is it possible that
you're Mini-Neptune when she isn't your real mother?" She looked at
Farrah.
"I was adopted,"
Farrah answered. "Uranus adopted my brother, Justin. Um, about the whole
Scout thing…she asked me if I was willing to accept the power and become a
Scout, and I said yes. So that's how that happened."
"Me and Justin-"
"Justin and I," Mina corrected.
"Once a mother,
always a mother," Allen muttered with a shrug.
"Why I oughtta…"
"Cool it,
Allen," Carmen snapped. "Don't tease people like that!"
"Anyways, Justin
and I can't fight 'cause we're Sailor Scouts,
which is prob'ly a good thing since we're guys, after all," Allen blurted
out.
"What I want to know
is, who's Marenda?" Raye asked.
"She's an agent of
the Multiverse," Rini explained. "They collect worlds. They were
behind the Negaverse, Negamoon, and the Dark Moon that recently attacked this
time. The villains might not have known it, but they were just being toyed
with, and each of the worlds used to be good. Until the Multiverse took control
of them, that is."
"Now the Multiverse
wants to add Crystal Tokyo to its collection," Carmen added, clenching her
hands into fists. "And we can't let that happen!"
"Marenda destroyed
everything that I fought to protect," Celia said quietly. "Before I
could learn to protect it. I'm not gonna let her take anything else."
"Please, you've gotta
help us defeat them!" Rini cried. "The whole future is at stake!"
"We have no
choice," Lita explained. "We're the Sailor Scouts, we've gotta fight
'em. And we're going to…right?" The other Scouts were quick to agree.
"But for now, I think
it's time to get some sleep," Mina pointed out.
"Hey, where'd Andrea
go?" Rini wondered. She hadn't been seen since the Mini-Scouts had
explained who they were. And now it seemed that she was gone again.
"We'll see her
again," Serena said. "I'm sure of it."
"There's so much new
information," Raye muttered. "So many things that we didn't know…so
the first time that Rini came to the past, she didn't even tell us that the
future Sailor Scouts had children?"
"No, it could've
messed up the future," Rini explained. "I didn't want to take that
risk."
"But now you
know," Celia said.
"You can't all stay
at my house, you know," Serena pointed out. "Rini, I'm sure that my
parents will ask questions…"
"Just say that I'm a
friend. My parents are…out of town. So I'm staying with you."
"Good idea,"
Serena agreed, "So where will the rest of you stay?"
"Celia and Anna could
probably stay at the temple," Raye suggested.
"But I want to stay
with Amy," Anna objected.
"It's alright with me," Amy said.
"Lita, I want to stay
with you," Carmen said quietly. "I mean, you're the best cook and
all…"
"Of course,"
Lita said. "How could I ever turn down a fan?"
"Mina, can Allen and
I stay at your place?" Justin asked, looking at Mina.
"Well, yeah, I guess.
But no funny business!"
"Farrah, stay with me
an' Raye!" Celia suggested.
"Well, if I'm not
imposing…"
"Of course not!"
Raye exclaimed. "The more, the merrier!" Then Anna gasped.
"Pi-chan is still
missing!" she cried.
"Named after the
algebraic symbol," Amy said, smiling.
"Y…uh, my mom named
him," Anna said shyly.
"That's just like
you, Amy," Mina joked. Suddenly a golden retriever bounded up to Anna and
jumped on top of her, knocking the young soldier of Mercury to the ground.
"Pi-chan, you came
back!"
"A dog as a guardian
animal, that's a little strange," Luna muttered.
"Well my guardian is
a parrot, is that strange too?" Celia asked.
"I thought that all
of the guardians would be cats," Artemis said. "But a parrot is
better than another dog."
"Did you bring him
with you?" Raye asked.
"Nope, left 'em at
home. He didn't want to come anyways," Celia explained.
"Hey Anna, are you
super-smart like your mother?" Mina asked.
"Mmmm…nope. Just an
ordinary little nine-year-old…well, I kinda got my dad's future-knowing
thing," Anna said. "But that's it."
"I wonder if Carmen
can cook as well as her mother," Serena muttered.
"Yeah, I can,"
Carmen explained. "When it comes from a package. But that's all…I wasn't a
very good cook."
"Well that's kinda
disappointing," Lita muttered. "But it doesn't matter, you've
probably got a billion other talents."
"I can fight like
you," Carmen said.
"No wonder me and
Rini fight so much," Celia blurted out. "I saw the way that you and
Raye fight."
"But we're still
friends," Raye reminded her.
"So are we,"
Rini added.
"Like mother like
daughter," Serena said with a grin. Celia and Raye looked at each other.
"I think that it's
about time for us to be going home," Amy said.
"Same here,"
Mina agreed.
"Me too," Lita
added.
"Bye guys," Rini
said to the Mini-Scouts. "Watch your backs, Marenda could show up at any
time."
"Bye!" the
others called as they left. Soon it was only Raye, Celia, and Farrah standing
in the park at night.
"C'mon," Raye
said. "Let's get home before my Grampa starts to worry about me."
Farrah walked ahead of
Celia and Raye, who hardly said a word to each other. Celia kept glancing at
the older soldier of Mars, studying her. Raye caught one of these looks and
smiled.
"So, tell me what
it's like in Crystal Tokyo." Celia sighed.
"It's lonely,"
she whispered.
"Why's that? You have
so many friends with you…"
"No, not that kind of
lonely," Celia muttered.
"Well what do you
mean?"
"It's just…"
"Hmmm?"
"I dunno if I should
tell you."
"You can trust
me," Raye told her.
"Well I…it's kind of
lonely…without my mother there."
To be continued…
In chapter 9:
Celia spills and Raye gets
chills. Is this dark future set in stone? Does she really have to die at the
hands of the terror Marenda? Or is there something she can do about the
future…? This and more in Role Model: Chapter 9!
*Note* Wow, we're already at
chapter 9. I dunno how long this story will be, but I'll try to keep it going
as long as you want me to. Thanks a bunch to the 159 people who have at least
taken a look at Role Model, and to the 7 people who actually left a
review. I'd really like your thoughts on the characters and how they relate to
each other, as well as comments on the story in general. If you'd be kind
enough to just leave a review, I would really appreciate it. Every review
counts, and I want to know what people sincerely think about this story. Thank
you so much,
