~*~Day Three~*~
Chibi-Usa stood in front of the pillard gate of time. The door
looked to be made of pure marble, but the texture was something else,
something alien. The phrases of the moon were engraved in eight seperate
panels. The three year old approached the gate and it swung open in
response.
A rainbow of colours swirled inside the gate. Chibi-Usa was
fascinated by the sight and moved closer. As she did so, she received a
feeling from the gate, as if it were prompting her to tell it what she
wanted.
"I wanna see mommy," Chibi-Usa replied to the gate's silent request.
Fear and apprehension filled the child, but there was also a feeling
of hope. This gate could take her to the mother that she missed, a mother
that left her alone in the palace with all the weird people. She stepped
forward and the gate engulfed her.
It was not typical for a pillard gate to simply appear in the middle
of a hospital corridor, but that's what this gate seemed to do. Stranger than
the weird gate was the fact that everyone seemed oblivious to it's arrival.
This was a gate that made people take notice, especially when three year
olds started walking out of them. Yet, the staff saw nothing strange.
Chibi-Usa stepped out into the intimidating hustle and bustle
of the hospital as adults ran here and there. Chibi-Usa looked up as the
adults ran here and there. She looked up at the adults, hoping one would
be familiar, but these people were all strangers.
A loud scream from an adjoining room attracted Chibi-Usa's attention.
She looked in to see a woman in labor being attended to by the hospital staff
and her husband. The husband was his wife's encouragement while the doctor
looked like a right fielder ready to catch a ground ball.
Chibi-Usa took a step in, drawn by some mysterious force, she
simply had to witness this. The woman screamed again as the as teh doctor
stuck his hands up the hospital uniform. A minute later, he withdrew his
hands. But they weren't empty, but now carried a newborn infant. The doctor
cut the umbical cord and wiped the baby with towels provided by the nurse.
Wrapping the baby up, he handed it to it's mother.
"Congratulations, it's a girl," the doctor said as he handed the
infant to the new parents.
Chibi-Usa was then noticed by the doctor. "Where did you come from?"
he asked the mysterious three year old.
Chibi-Usa had no answer, but the mother helped her. "It's alright,
doctor.
The doctor nodded. "Okay, a nurse will be along shortly to do blood
tests and take measurements." And with that, he left.
"Hello, what's your name?" the woman asked Chibi-Usa.
"Usagi, but minna call me Chibi-Usa."
"Usagi, what a pretty name," the mother intoned. "Shall I call her
'Usagi?'" she asked her husband.
The husband smiled. "I think that's a fine name. By the way, I'm
Kenji."
"And I'm Ikuko. Would you like to see her?" Chibi-Usa nodded her head.
"Usagi, meet 'Usagi'."
Chibi-Usa looked at the newborn infant. A small crescent moon
flashed on and off on her forehead - oblivious to the parents. It was then,
that realization struck.
"Mama," Chibi-Usa cried.
"Yes, I'm a Mama now," Ikuko replied, obviously misinterpreting Chibi-
Usa's responce.
Chibi-Usa, filled with emotion, fled the room, teardrops forming
in her eyes.
The young princess sat on a bench sniffling. Her mother was now
younger than her. Her mother was the one that needed attention now, not
her. It was a sobering thought. She got up and wondered aimlessly down
the hospital corridor.
As she turned a corner, she bumped into someone.
"Did you find what you wanted?" a voice asked.
Chibi-Usa looked up to find herself facing the Senshi of time, Pluto.
Sailor Pluto stepped out of the time gate into the palace where
she was greeted by the other senshi. She kept the mask of indifference that
she always wore.
"There, we're back, no harm done," she announced.
"That's great," Haruka replied, "but didn't you forget something?"
she asked, pointing the the noticable lack of space that was beside Pluto.
Pluto's face dropped. "Ahhhh, she was with me... " She began looking
around as the rest of the Senshi began to laugh. "I'll never have kids
as long as I live."
"Since your bond to live a while," Ami noted, "I'm glad I have it
recorded." She then showed everyone the recording device she held.
"Can I get a copy?" Haruka asked.
On that day, Sailor Pluto swore that this would be the last time
she agreed to babysit anyone.
~*~ Tokyo - 1995 ~*~
A girl; young with long blonde hair up in buns and ponytails, skipped
merrily down the street. Coming to a stop infront of the arcade, she took
a deep breath and waited for the doors to slide open.
"Hey Motoki-kun!" she called, skipping up to the counter.
Behind the counter, Motoki was bent down over something resembling a
high chair. "Motoki, what are you doing?"
Turning, he smiled, then proceeded to go back to what he was doing.
Finally he spoke, "One of the girls found a baby wondering the streets near
the dock and brought her here." He lifted up a child with pink hair up
in pointed buns and ponytails, similiar to Usagi's.
"Your kidding? Found her?" Usagi asked, taking the baby and tickling
her side.
"Yeah, she was just walking around."
Suddenly the child in Usagi's hands cried out. Scared, Usagi pushed
her back into Motoki's arms. "What happened?!"
"MAMA!!!" the girl cried over and over, her small arms reaching
for Usagi to take her back.
"Nani?!?!?!" Usagi squealed, moving back from the counter.
"MAMA! MAMA! MAMA! MAMA!" the child screamed, tears flowing down
her cheeks.
"Shimatta kid! I ain't your mama!" Usagi looked from side to side,
hoping that there was someone else that the child was talking about.
A chuckling from the side got Usagi's attention. "Poor kid, thinks
that YOU are her mother!" Mamoru laughed.
"Shut-up baka!" Usagi retorted and took the child. Instantly she
stopped crying. "What?"
Looking down, she noticed that the pink haired child had curled
up on her shoulder and was contently sucking her thumb. Instantly Usagi
softened. "She's so pretty."
On a spur of the moment thing, Mamoru stood up and ran his hand
over the little girls forehead. "She is a cute thing."
Usagi looked up at Mamoru in amazement, but said nothing. She
didn't have to. It was soon to be said for her.
"PAPA!!" Chibi-Usa cried, throwing herself in Mamoru's arms.
Silence.
And then...
"HAHAHAHAHA!!!!" Motoki doubled over, pointing with a shaking finger
at Mamoru who was white as a ghost.
Usagi just stood, her feet firmly planted on the floor.
Mamoru looked down at Chibi-Usa, then to Usagi, then to Motoki who
was holding on to the counter to keep himself up. "Oh no you don't kid...
I ain't your papa," he mumbled, handing her back to Usagi.
That small action brought another wave of tears from the young girl.
"Papa! Papa mad?!" she cried over and over, buring her face in Usagi's shirt.
Usagi done the only thing she could think to do, she rubbed Chibi-Usa's
back soothingly and whispered in her ear that it would be okay.
Wiping the tears from his eyes, Motoki gasped for air inbetween talking.
"She *gasp* thought that Mamoru was her *weeze* Papa and Usagi is *gasp* her
mama!" *cough... laugh* "Wait til the girls *cough again* hear about *weeze once
more* this!"
"You wouldn't?!" Usagi and Mamoru screamed at the same time. This small
action brought Chibi-Usa's attention back to the argueing "grown-ups".
"Papa not mad?" she asked innocently, her eyes begging Mamoru to
hold her.
Usagi stared Mamoru down, baring into his blue eyes. Her message was
clear. 'DO NOT MAKE HER CRY!'
In the mist of all of the distractions, no one noticed the bells of
the arcade door jingle, or the presence of a man about six feet tall, glasses
and nice business clothes on.
Mamoru took Chibi-Usa and hugged her. "No baby, Papa not mad."
Giggling happily, she turned once more to Usagi. "Mama not mad?"
"No baby, Mama not mad..." the rest of her sentence, had there been
one, was to be cut off adruptly.
"WHAT THE HELL IS THIS? MAMA!" Kenji pulled his daughter around to face him,
"AND PAPA?!?! SON YOU BETTER HAVE SOME DAMNED GOOD EXPLANATION FOR THIS!!" he
screamed in Mamoru's face.
There are many constants in life. The world will keep on turning, cheese
will always grow moldy, dogs will always hump people's legs, among many
other ones. This just happened to be another constant.
You know, the one about daddy getting psycho when he finds out his little
girl's been knocked up.
And at that moment, Mamoru was being introduced to another one of
life's little profundities.
"You.. you... pedophile!!!" Kenji bellowed while yanking Usagi away,
"I swear, I'm going to... to... "
Kill? Maim? Destroy? Tear limb from limb? Rip to shreds? Deciptate?
Castrate?
"... to... KICK YOU REPEATEDLY IN THE CROTCH IF YOU DON'T STAY AWAY
FROM MY DAUGHTER!!!"
Okay, not the retort I had in mind, but it got the message across.
Mamoru, muddled and bewildered, backed away, checking his groin area
to see if it was still intact.
Understandibly, everyone was silent, afraid a single move would trigger
the deadly explosive known as only P.I.S.S.E.D. - psychedelicly infuriated slami...
I won't even try to finish that.
Then, out of the blue, came Chibi-Usa's little, innocent voice,
"Mommy? Daddy?"
That was enough to ignite the waiting timebomb. Kenji threw a vicious
punch at Mamoru, k.o.ing him with just one hit. He stalked out of the arcade,
Usagi - and by default Chibi-Usa - in a tow. Obviously, he was heading home
to grab the shotgun.
My, my, would you look at that? The infamous Tuxedo Kamen got his clock
cleaned by a ticked off parent. I think Beryl should start investing her time
and energy into these overprotective adults and ditch those good for nothing
generals.
Speaking of her...
Far, far away in a cold, cold place...
"Did you see that?!" the queen of the Dark Kingdom asked.
Zoicite grinned, "Tux-boy got his lights turned off by that roving
maniac!"
"EXACTLY." Beryl turned her head toward her general and sneared.
"So what are you doing waiting here?! Go and capture this invaluable
weapon for me!!!"
"But-"
"Stop your buts and move your butt!!!"
"Yes your Majesty..."
Usagi was being drug down the street, Kenji mumbling some choice
phrases under his breath. Usagi was still in shock at seeing her dad knock
Mamoru out. All over a kid.
Speaking of the kid...
She looked down at the child who was beginning to fall asleep. She had
to admit... Suddenly Usagi turned white as a ghost. Though ghosts aren't
really white, they're more translusant, and in movies and such they often
have clothes and look quiet real just faded. And this is all asuming you
belive in ghosts, if you don't then they don't have a color.....
"Ahem!" narrator turns to see pissed readers holding flames.
(Serenity: get it? huh huh? ...didn't think so)
"Right, sorry."
Usagi turned white as a ghost. There next to her was a black portal.
Suddenly a head popped out. Well more than the head, and it didn't really
pop....
"....."
Right right, the story. Well the head poped out, Pluto's head to be
more exact.
"I'll take that." Smiling she removed the toddler from Usagi's arms
and vanished. Just as our heroine recovered the ablity of speech the portal
appeared again.
"Right, forgot something."
And with that Pluto knocked her Princess out.
Now you have to remember that while this was occuring one very ticked
parental unit was dragging the poor girl through the streets. Unwilling, but
at least she was awake. However now that she was out cold, her body was being
drug along the sidewalk, her head flopping about.
"My, my how interesting is this?" duh duh dun....
Enter the villian.
Kenji of course was too caught up in his own little world to notice
the new presenance. Why should he? He certianly didn't notice the portal...
"You! With the girl!" still he didn't answer,"HEY GUY DRAGGING THE
GIRL!" Well that got his attention!
Turning around Kenji FINALLY noticed Usagi was knocked out. Seeing
as the only one around was Zoysite, he naturally assumed it was him.
"Great! First she's knocked up, now she's knocked out!" he muttered,
not noticing the lack of Chibi Usa.
"Listen and listen good! You people need to...AWWW SCREW THE INSULTS!"
and with that Kenji lunged at Zoysite. He, the he being Zoyiste, of course
was expecting some long fancy pants intro, followed by a few niffty hand
movements, and a fancy back drop.
So naturally he was caught off guard. And knocked off his feet.
Proving for the second time that day, that you don't mess with
daddy's baby girl.
"I can't belive this..." he muttered looking down at the general.
"And you won't remember it either." And with that Pluto harnessed the
awsome power of the Big Time Key Staff With the Pretty Dohicky on the Top -
and hit Kenji in the back of the head.
So we return to the future, with not one, not two, not three, not four,
not....
No wait, four. Yes... Four people out cold, one very confused acrade
hottie, and a random guy that they passed on the street.
Everything was quiet in Crystal Tokyo. The past few days had seen
destruction not even heralded by the darkest of wars. To this, the harbinger
of apocalypse only giggled and smiled, trying to look cute, trying to get
off the hook.
No such luck, girly.
There were Haruka and Michiru, angry at the sudden ruination of
their passionate night.
There was Setsuna, fuming over having to not only grab a pile of dung,
but also to go back in time to save the little demon.
There were Ami and Hotaru, thoroughly riled over the Slip n' Slide
incident.
There was Makoto, extremely irked about the facial nugget dipping and
duct tape on her furniture.
There was Rei, nearly exploding from irritation and constipation
because she couldn't use her toilet.
There was Minako, quivering in her heels because of *THE* sex talk
she gave.
And then there was Taiki, ticked off over his redecorated books.
Don't forget Seiya, who had his face planted on the palace walls.
Finally, there was Yaten... He wasn't really pissed off, though,
since Minako was on his mind.
Eleven people. Ten of them wanted to throw the little baby off highest
spire of the Crystal Palace.
Majority wins.
"Minna-chan?" Chibi-Usa peeped as her arms were hooked by two random,
angry senshi, "Mina-chan? Puu? Ami-chan?"
No answer. For some reason (At least one her young couldn't comprehend.),
she was being dragged up and up and up and up a flight of still slightly wet
stairs. No, really, she couldn't understand WHY her senshi buddies were so
quiet, resolute, and overly scarey.
After ten minutes of stair climbing, the eleven adults and one child
got to the very top of the palace.
Minako approached Haruka and said, "You may do the honor," mainly
because of the homicidal glint in the taller woman's eyes.
The Senshi put their hands over their hearts and said a short prayer
for the little soul. A longer prayer said was for the party afterwards.
"Ready?"
Haruka nodded.
"One."
"Two."
"Thr-"
"HIYA MINNA!!!"
What the hell was THAT?!
Suddenly, the spire's door burst open, admitting a very rested and
rejunvenated Serenity. Behind her, Endymion's cussing could be heard - he
slipped on the wet floor and was currently enjoying a ten minute fall down
the stairs.
"Well, well, well," smiled the queen while putting her arms around
her friends, "What have you guys been up to?! I missed all of you sooo
much!!! And especially you!" Quickly and affectionately (In one of those
ways only mothers do muster up.), she snatched the bewildered Chibi-Usa from
Haruka's murderous grasp, "Oh yes I did! Look at you! Did you have fun?!
What were you doing up here, deary?!"
Then a random thought hit Serenity. "Say, what ARE you guys doing up
here?"
Throwing the daimon overboard? Dusting the youma? Saving the palace?
Killing your daughter?
"Uhhh, we were playing airplane."
Wow. Nice save, Minako!!!
~*~ Epilogue ~*~
Chibi-Usa giggled adorably as Endymion bounced her on his knee. The
room was strangly quiet after Serenity's last question.
So, she repeated.
"How'd everything go?" There wasn't an ounce of worry, or anything lineing
her voice and the senshi were finding it hard to reveal exactly what all had
happened in her absence. I mean, could you sit there - infront of your queen -
and tell her to her face that you stuck not only your foot, but your whole
damned *leg* down your throat? In the words of Makoto, "Piece of cake." So
how exactly do you retrack and tell *everything* that happened?
Simple, you don't.
Swallowing soundlessly, Minako stood and smiled as brightly as her tired
and worn face would allow. "Okay... Small Lady she is -- umm, well. The princess
has lots of..."
"Energy!" Hotaru supplied.
"Yeah! Energy!" Venus wholeheartedly agreed. THAT wasn't lieing!! She
had to have *tons* of energy to do all the running she'd managed.
Looking relieved, Serenity sighed. Endymion on the other hand was ready
to yuk it up.
"See Usako!! I TOLD you they'd be fine! But noooo, you had to worry!"
That was almost the breaking point. Haruka, remembering her
embarrassment, started to open her mouth before Michiru stuck a hand over her it,
effectivly silencing her.
Serenity sighed heavily and gave her daughter a small smile. "Yes
Mamo-chan, I suppose you were right."
"So!" the King started, pulling Chibi-Usa up to rest on his shoulder as
he stood. "Then I guess you all wouldn't mind baby-sitting next weekend too!
We had so muc--"
Before he could finish, a stampede ran through the room. No, not
elephants(though one could possiblily mistake it for that), but senshi. The
senshi wouldn't have ran faster had there been fire on their tales. Poof! One
second they're there, next gone.
"What'd I say?" Endymion looked down at the bewildered Queen, then to
his daughter.
Chibi-Usa giggled lightly. "Daddy? What the dirty deed?"
The End...
Serenity Raye: Wait!!
Bethany: What now?!
SR: What about Mamoru in the past?
Bethany: What about him? ohh..... do you people want to know what is happening
at this point in 1995?
Let's see....
Motoki looks up from his coffee. "Dammnit Mamoru! I don't want to hear
another thing about it!! You DO NOT have a child with Usagi-chan and THAT is
THAT!"
"But I remember! Her dad knocked me out man! The little girl was cute,
with pink hair up like Usagi's and..."
Shaking his head, Motoki poured another cup of coffee. "Dude, your
crazy!! There ain't no kid! "
"You mean that little girl that was with the hot blonde?"
Mamoru turned to look at the newcomer, he was tall with brown sandy hair
and hazel eyes. And he was SERIOUS. YES!!! Mamoru thought, I'm not the only one
who seen it!! "Yeah, you seen her, didn't ya?"
"Yeah man! Her old man was dragging her down the road, a kid in her arms,
screaming about how she had been knocked up! Was that you? He looked pissed!"
Suddenly a black hole just appeared out of no where. A woman stepped out
of it, effectivily silenceing all three men. Clearing her throat, she closed her
eyes. "Boy I hope there is no permeant brain damage to the prince... like
being easy to brain wash or something..." she grumbled as she took her
big key with the pretty dohickey on top and done a 360 -- leaving three men on
the floor in her wake.
Fin~!
Sorry it took so long posting, I sorta forgot to send it last week ^^;;
Usual disclaimers apply, we don't own Sailor Moon no matter how much

Chibi-Usa stood in front of the pillard gate of time. The door

the deadly explosive known as only P.I.S.S.E.D. - psychedelicly infuriated slami...
I won't even try to finish that.
Then, out of the blue, came Chibi-Usa's little, innocent voice,
"Mommy? Daddy?"
That was enough to ignite the waiting timebomb. Kenji threw a vicious
punch at Mamoru, k.o.ing him with just one hit. He stalked out of the arcade,
Usagi - and by default Chibi-Usa - in a tow. Obviously, he was heading home
to grab the shotgun.
My, my, would you look at that? The infamous Tuxedo Kamen got his clock
cleaned by a ticked off parent. I think Beryl should start investing her time
and energy into these overprotective adults and ditch those good for nothing
generals.
Speaking of her...
Far, far away in a cold, cold place...
"Did you see that?!" the queen of the Dark Kingdom asked.
Zoicite grinned, "Tux-boy got his lights turned off by that roving
maniac!"
"EXACTLY." Beryl turned her head toward her general and sneared.
"So what are you doing waiting here?! Go and capture this invaluable
weapon for me!!!"
"But-"
"Stop your buts and move your butt!!!"
"Yes your Majesty..."
Usagi was being drug down the street, Kenji mumbling some choice
phrases under his breath. Usagi was still in shock at seeing her dad knock
Mamoru out. All over a kid.
Speaking of the kid...
She looked down at the child who was beginning to fall asleep. She had
to admit... Suddenly Usagi turned white as a ghost. Though ghosts aren't
really white, they're more translusant, and in movies and such they often
have clothes and look quiet real just faded. And this is all asuming you
belive in ghosts, if you don't then they don't have a color.....
"Ahem!" narrator turns to see pissed readers holding flames.
(Serenity: get it? huh huh? ...didn't think so)
"Right, sorry."
Usagi turned white as a ghost. There next to her was a black portal.
Suddenly a head popped out. Well more than the head, and it didn't really
pop....
"....."
Right right, the story. Well the head poped out, Pluto's head to be
more exact.
"I'll take that." Smiling she removed the toddler from Usagi's arms
and vanished. Just as our heroine recovered the ablity of speech the portal
appeared again.
"Right, forgot something."
And with that Pluto knocked her Princess out.
Now you have to remember that while this was occuring one very ticked
parental unit was dragging the poor girl through the streets. Unwilling, but
at least she was awake. However now that she was out cold, her body was being
drug along the sidewalk, her head flopping about.
"My, my how interesting is this?" duh duh dun....
Enter the villian.
Kenji of course was too caught up in his own little world to notice
the new presenance. Why should he? He certianly didn't notice the portal...
"You! With the girl!" still he didn't answer,"HEY GUY DRAGGING THE
GIRL!" Well that got his attention!
Turning around Kenji FINALLY noticed Usagi was knocked out. Seeing
as the only one around was Zoysite, he naturally assumed it was him.
"Great! First she's knocked up, now she's knocked out!" he muttered,
not noticing the lack of Chibi Usa.
"Listen and listen good! You people need to...AWWW SCREW THE INSULTS!"
and with that Kenji lunged at Zoysite. He, the he being Zoyiste, of course
was expecting some long fancy pants intro, followed by a few niffty hand
movements, and a fancy back drop.
So naturally he was caught off guard. And knocked off his feet.
Proving for the second time that day, that you don't mess with
daddy's baby girl.
"I can't belive this..." he muttered looking down at the general.
"And you won't remember it either." And with that Pluto harnessed the
awsome power of the Big Time Key Staff With the Pretty Dohicky on the Top -
and hit Kenji in the back of the head.
So we return to the future, with not one, not two, not three, not four,
not....
No wait, four. Yes... Four people out cold, one very confused acrade
hottie, and a random guy that they passed on the street.
Everything was quiet in Crystal Tokyo. The past few days had seen
destruction not even heralded by the darkest of wars. To this, the harbinger
of apocalypse only giggled and smiled, trying to look cute, trying to get
off the hook.
No such luck, girly.
There were Haruka and Michiru, angry at the sudden ruination of
their passionate night.
There was Setsuna, fuming over having to not only grab a pile of dung,
but also to go back in time to save the little demon.
There were Ami and Hotaru, thoroughly riled over the Slip n' Slide
incident.
There was Makoto, extremely irked about the facial nugget dipping and
duct tape on her furniture.
There was Rei, nearly exploding from irritation and constipation
because she couldn't use her toilet.
There was Minako, quivering in her heels because of *THE* sex talk
she gave.
And then there was Taiki, ticked off over his redecorated books.
Don't forget Seiya, who had his face planted on the palace walls.
Finally, there was Yaten... He wasn't really pissed off, though,
since Minako was on his mind.
Eleven people. Ten of them wanted to throw the little baby off highest
spire of the Crystal Palace.
Majority wins.
"Minna-chan?" Chibi-Usa peeped as her arms were hooked by two random,
angry senshi, "Mina-chan? Puu? Ami-chan?"
No answer. For some reason (At least one her young couldn't comprehend.),
she was being dragged up and up and up and up a flight of still slightly wet
stairs. No, really, she couldn't understand WHY her senshi buddies were so
quiet, resolute, and overly scarey.
After ten minutes of stair climbing, the eleven adults and one child
got to the very top of the palace.
Minako approached Haruka and said, "You may do the honor," mainly
because of the homicidal glint in the taller woman's eyes.
The Senshi put their hands over their hearts and said a short prayer
for the little soul. A longer prayer said was for the party afterwards.
"Ready?"
Haruka nodded.
"One."
"Two."
"Thr-"
"HIYA MINNA!!!"
What the hell was THAT?!
Suddenly, the spire's door burst open, admitting a very rested and
rejunvenated Serenity. Behind her, Endymion's cussing could be heard - he
slipped on the wet floor and was currently enjoying a ten minute fall down
the stairs.
"Well, well, well," smiled the queen while putting her arms around
her friends, "What have you guys been up to?! I missed all of you sooo
much!!! And especially you!" Quickly and affectionately (In one of those
ways only mothers do muster up.), she snatched the bewildered Chibi-Usa from
Haruka's murderous grasp, "Oh yes I did! Look at you! Did you have fun?!
What were you doing up here, deary?!"
Then a random thought hit Serenity. "Say, what ARE you guys doing up
here?"
Throwing the daimon overboard? Dusting the youma? Saving the palace?
Killing your daughter?
"Uhhh, we were playing airplane."
Wow. Nice save, Minako!!!
~*~ Epilogue ~*~
Chibi-Usa giggled adorably as Endymion bounced her on his knee. The
room was strangly quiet after Serenity's last question.
So, she repeated.
"How'd everything go?" There wasn't an ounce of worry, or anything lineing
her voice and the senshi were finding it hard to reveal exactly what all had
happened in her absence. I mean, could you sit there - infront of your queen -
and tell her to her face that you stuck not only your foot, but your whole
damned *leg* down your throat? In the words of Makoto, "Piece of cake." So
how exactly do you retrack and tell *everything* that happened?
Simple, you don't.
Swallowing soundlessly, Minako stood and smiled as brightly as her tired
and worn face would allow. "Okay... Small Lady she is -- umm, well. The princess
has lots of..."
"Energy!" Hotaru supplied.
"Yeah! Energy!" Venus wholeheartedly agreed. THAT wasn't lieing!! She
had to have *tons* of energy to do all the running she'd managed.
Looking relieved, Serenity sighed. Endymion on the other hand was ready
to yuk it up.
"See Usako!! I TOLD you they'd be fine! But noooo, you had to worry!"
That was almost the breaking point. Haruka, remembering her
embarrassment, started to open her mouth before Michiru stuck a hand over her it,
effectivly silencing her.
Serenity sighed heavily and gave her daughter a small smile. "Yes
Mamo-chan, I suppose you were right."
"So!" the King started, pulling Chibi-Usa up to rest on his shoulder as
he stood. "Then I guess you all wouldn't mind baby-sitting next weekend too!
We had so muc--"
Before he could finish, a stampede ran through the room. No, not
elephants(though one could possiblily mistake it for that), but senshi. The
senshi wouldn't have ran faster had there been fire on their tales. Poof! One
second they're there, next gone.
"What'd I say?" Endymion looked down at the bewildered Queen, then to
his daughter.
Chibi-Usa giggled lightly. "Daddy? What the dirty deed?"
The End...
Serenity Raye: Wait!!
Bethany: What now?!
SR: What about Mamoru in the past?
Bethany: What about him? ohh..... do you people want to know what is happening
at this point in 1995?
Let's see....
Motoki looks up from his coffee. "Dammnit Mamoru! I don't want to hear
another thing about it!! You DO NOT have a child with Usagi-chan and THAT is
THAT!"
"But I remember! Her dad knocked me out man! The little girl was cute,
with pink hair up like Usagi's and..."
Shaking his head, Motoki poured another cup of coffee. "Dude, your
crazy!! There ain't no kid! "
"You mean that little girl that was with the hot blonde?"
Mamoru turned to look at the newcomer, he was tall with brown sandy hair
and hazel eyes. And he was SERIOUS. YES!!! Mamoru thought, I'm not the only one
who seen it!! "Yeah, you seen her, didn't ya?"
"Yeah man! Her old man was dragging her down the road, a kid in her arms,
screaming about how she had been knocked up! Was that you? He looked pissed!"
Suddenly a black hole just appeared out of no where. A woman stepped out
of it, effectivily silenceing all three men. Clearing her throat, she closed her
eyes. "Boy I hope there is no permeant brain damage to the prince... like
being easy to brain wash or something..." she grumbled as she took her
big key with the pretty dohickey on top and done a 360 -- leaving three men on
the floor in her wake.
Fin~!
