Getting to Know You
Chapter 12: Problem Solved
--------------------------------------------
Usagi smiled to herself as she woke up the following Sunday. "I can not wait until I get to
Rei-chan's!" Usagi hummed "Nagareboshi He" to herself as she put her hair back up into their
famous "odango" hairstyle. She had figured a plan on how to make Ginga and her gang to stop
harassing her. She was about to get her four best friends to help her out and with some luck,
maybe even the Three Lights and Kakyuu Ouhi. Seiya still hasn't responded to the letter that
she gave him, but with some hope, Usagi was sure to get one when she called them at Rei-chan's.
Just before she walked out the door she grabbed a backpack which appeared to be completely full.
----------------------------------------------------------------
"I'm here!" Usagi called as she entered the Hikawa Shrine. She was five minutes late and didn't
really notice.
"What kind of girl calls a meeting and is the only one to arrive late?!" Rei yelled angerly as
Usagi entered the room.
"Well, excuse me! Rei-chan, this is NOT a time to be arguing!" Usagi yelled back in responce.
"So, Usagi-chan, what's the big emergency?" Makoto asked with interest.
"Does it concern the Three Lights?" Minako asked with excitement.
"Something along those lines." Usagi smiled. "I already discussed part of this plan with
Ami-chan."
"Is this true?" Rei asked.
Ami nodded, "This one might actually work out."
Usagi stood up, "I'm proud of myself. We're going to make Ginga-san feel good about herself!"
"How are we going to do that?" Makoto asked.
"I'll tell you as soon as I invite the Three Lights and Kakyuu-san over." Usagi replied.
"I'm getting a responce from Seiya no matter what!"
"Well, lets see if you can really call him." Rei dared as she pointed to the phone.
Usagi sighed as she approached it. She dialed Seiya's number and waited for someone to pick up.
--------------------------------------------------
"Someone get the phone!" Yaten yelled from the couch as he watched the TV.
"Yaten-kun, I don't see you doing anything." Kakyuu sighed. She actually took Seiya's offer.
She has moved in with the three brothers. Seiya kept insisting, besides Seiya needed her there.
He was having trouble calling Usagi with his answer.
"Hello?" Kakyuu answered.
-------------------------------------------------
"Kakyuu-san?" Usagi asked with surprise. "It's Usagi. Do I have the wrong number? I was trying
to call Seiya and his brothers."
-------------------------------------------------
Kakyuu giggled, "No, you have the right number. Seiya and the others invited me to live here."
------------------------------------------------
"Wow!" Usagi exclaimed as her eyes lit up. "So, may I speak with Seiya or is still too mad at
me?"
------------------------------------------------
"Actually, I'm glad you called. Usagi-chan," Kakyuu began as she glanced towards Seiya's
closed bedroom door. "I feel sorry for him. He's been trying to call you for two days. He
has yet to gather the courage."
------------------------------------------------
"Could you put him on the phone? I'm pretty nervous as well."
------------------------------------------------
"Yes, one moment." Kakyuu responded as she held the cordless phone. She knocked twice on
Seiya's door. "You have a call."
-------------------------------------------------
Seiya sighed as opened the door and grabbed the phone. "Who is it?"
"It's Usagi-chan." Kakyuu replied with a look of concern.
"Hey, Odango." Seiya answered as he put the phone up to his ears.
------------------------------------------------
"Seiya! I'm so glad to hear your voice." Usagi smiled. "I've been afraid that you'd be
mad at me still. You don't talk to me at school so much."
-------------------------------------------------
"I didn't know how to say it, but I forgive you. I'll wait until you get over Mamoru-san,
if that's what you need. Also, Usagi, I was never mad at you in the first place. I was just
mad at myself for falling too hard for you."
-------------------------------------------------
"Seiya..."
Ami tapped Usagi on the shoulder, "Don't forget about the plan." She gently whispered.
"That's right!" Usagi began. "I have a plan on how to get Ginga-san to stop her ways."
------------------------------------------------
"How would we go about doing that? Odango, she won't stop."
------------------------------------------------
"Yes, she will!" Usagi snapped her fingers in excitement. She looked towards, Rei, Minako,
Makoto, and Ami who were all listening to Usagi talk. "You guys have to listen too. This
is the plan."
------------------------------------------------
"Odango, who are you talking to?" Seiya asked confused.
-------------------------------------------------
"Rei-chan, Mako-chan, Minako-chan, and Ami-chan are also here." Usagi sweatdropped. "Anyway,
continuing with the plan... Remember that day that I gave you the note? While I was walking
home I ran into Ginga-san and her group. I asked Ginga-san why she hated me so much and she
said because she was alone and was always neglected. You see, Ginga-san's in need of some
real friends!"
--------------------------------------------------
"Well, what about those four girls that she is always hanging around with. What are they?
Fake friends?" Seiya asked.
---------------------------------------------------
"They're neglected. They all need friends."
----------------------------------------------------
"Well, who's going to be friends with them? I'm sure not going to after all the
stuff they put you through."
-----------------------------------------------------
"Who would be?" Usagi asked. "Anyway, I'm sure that if people warm up to them that they will
be really nice."
------------------------------------------------------
"How are we going to show them friendship?" Seiya asked. "I hate them."
------------------------------------------------------
"I ran into Reiko-san the other day. I asked when Ginga-san's birthday was and guess what?
It's today! I was thinking of challenging her to face me at the Hikawa Shrine once and
for all, but in reality, I'm going to throw her a surprise birthday party! The entire
Juuban High will be there!"
-------------------------------------------------------
"...And why would anyone from our school go to Ginga's birthday party?" Seiya asked. "Like you
said, no one likes her."
-------------------------------------------------------
"People may not like Ginga-san, but people sure do love the Three Lights!"
-------------------------------------------------------
Seiya raised an eyebrow, "What are you implying?"
-------------------------------------------------------
"You, Taiki-san, and Yaten-kun will run around town and hand out flyers and saying that this
will be the best party all year because the Three Lights will be attending!"
--------------------------------------------------------
"That sounds like a great idea, but what makes you think that Yaten and Taiki are willing to
help?"
--------------------------------------------------------
Usagi sighed, "Ginga-san has a grudge against those two as well."
--------------------------------------------------------
"That's right, well do you have these flyers? Also, when is the party?"
---------------------------------------------------------
"At 8:00 PM. All the flyers are here at the Hikawa Shrine. You guys can come pick them up."
----------------------------------------------------------
"Odango, if you don't mind me asking... How did you think up such a plan?"
-----------------------------------------------------------
"It was easy, Ami-chan helped me. Also, could you invite Kakyuu-san?"
-----------------------------------------------------------
Seiya laughed, "We'll be there in about half an hour. Bye."
-----------------------------------------------------------
"Bye." Usagi smiled as she hung up the phone. "They're coming!"
"ALL THREE? YOU GOT ALL THREE TO COME HERE?" Minako screamed. "I CAN'T EVEN GET ONE TO COME
TO MY HOUSE!" Minako winked. "Usagi-chan, you're really good at talking to them."
"Thank you, Minako-chan." Usagi blushed.
"Well, do you really have the flyers?" Rei asked. "I don't see them."
"That's right." Usagi said as she emptied out her backpack. A whole mess appeared. The
flyers were there, a HUGE stack of them, including some ballons, banners, and party supplies.
"I'm prepared."
"Food?" Rei asked. "You don't expect me to supply it."
Ami also had a backpack which she emptied out. Out came some vegetables, fruits, meat, rice mix,
and whole ton of food. "Usagi and I were hoping that Mako-chan could do it."
"Please?" Usagi asked as she kneeled before the taller girl. "Makoto-sama, I beg you please,
please, PLEASE cook for me!"
Makoto sweatdropped, "Don't get so drastic. I'll do it for you. How many people are planning
to attend."
"As many as the Three Lights gather. Possibly the entire town." Usagi beamed.
Makoto sweatdropped again, "We might need more igredients. I can do it as long as Minako-chan
helps me."
"But, I'm already taken. I'm helping the Three Lights pass out flyers." Minako said.
"But, Minako-chan, Kakyuu-san is already helping them." Ami replied. "We planned everything
out. Kakyuu-san and the Three Lights will pass out flyers. Usagi-chan will convince Ginga to
come. Rei-chan and I are going to be decorating. That leaves you and Mako-chan with cooking
duty."
"I can't cook!" Minako cried. "I wanted to see to Yaten-kun and the others!"
"Come on." Makoto ordered as she dragged a crying Minako into the kitchen.
"I'll go buy some more igredients after I talk to Ginga-san." Usagi promised.
"Sounds good." Ami smiled as she helped Rei put up some decorations.
"Wait a minute," Rei paused. "Why can't we have the party at YOUR house?"
"Everyone comes here! Besides your place is attractive!" Usagi complimented.
"And yours isn't?" Rei said sarcasticly.
------------------------------------------------------------
"Now where would Ginga-san be on a Sunday..." Usagi thought to herself. "I could try the phone
book." Usagi walked into the nearest payphone and looked up Ginga's phone number. She finally
found it and dialed it. "Hello?"
---
"Hello? This is the Oj'ou residence."
---
"Hello, may I please speak to Ginga-san?"
---
"This is her. Who might this be?"
---
"Ginga-san, it's Usagi Tsukino."
---
"Then you must address me as '-sama'! Besides, what do you want?"
---
"If you really want to settle things, then I challenge you to a battle at the Hikawa Shrine
at 8:00 pm tonight."
---
"What will I get from it?"
---
"If I lose, I will leave Juuban. If you lose, you will leave me alone."
---
A smile appeared on Ginga's face, "Deal."
---
Usagi hung up the phone and went to buy some more food for the party.
---
An hour later, Usagi returned to the shrine and the Three Lights (w/ Kakyuu) arrived.
"You came!" Usagi exclaimed as she let the four enter.
"Of course." Seiya smiled. "Ginga-san needs to be stopped at all costs."
Taiki hesistated, "I'm not sure it will work."
Yaten nodded, "Ginga-san isn't the kind to take kindness with open arms!"
"Taiki-san, Yaten-kun," Ami began. "Please just try to believe. Usagi-chan's plan may not work,
but it's good to know that you tried to stop something."
Usagi and Rei gave the four the stacks of flyers.
"The address and details are printed on the flyers." Rei explained. "Usagi finally came
through."
"Good luck, Usagi-chan." Kakyuu winked as she made her exit.
"Thank you." Seiya replied as the remaining three walked out the door.
-----------------------
"We're NEVER going to get this done!" Minako yelled as tears filled her eyes. The entire
kitchen was now filled with ingredients. With almost an entire town coming, cooking all
the food could take days!
"Calm down, Minako-chan." Makoto replied as she continued to boil the water. "Just continue
peeling those vegetables."
Minako sighed as she did what she was told, "I should've been the one with the Three Lights
right now..."
------------------------
"What should I do now?" Usagi asked happily.
"Hmm..." Ami paused as she looked around at the room. About half of it was done already,
"I think that Rei-chan and I can handle this... But, I think Minako-chan and Mako-chan
might be needing some help with the food."
Usagi nodded as she skipped into the kitchen.
Rei sweatdropped, "Do you think we're going to pull this off?"
Ami shrugged, "For Usagi-chan's sake we should at continue to hope."
----------------------
The Three Lights and Kakyuu passed out the flyers easily. Once girls caught sight of the
one (or all) of the Three Lights they immeditately ran over. That gave the guys a chance
to tell about the party. Kakyuu just spoke to random people from their school and got them
to come.
---------------------
The Three Lights returned at around 5 pm. The food was all done, but needed to spread across
the room. The Three Lights, Makoto, Minako, Usagi, Ami, and Rei all helped arrange them and
bring in extra furniture when needed.
After everything was settled, the nine sat down. They were all tired and needed a break.
"I really hope this will work." Usagi sighed.
"If it'll help, my brothers here and I could dedicate a song for her and perform it in the
front." Seiya winked.
Hearts filled Minako's eyes, "Please do!"
"Seiya, since when did you plan to do that?!" Taiki asked.
Yaten yawned, "He's right. We're all tired."
"Please?" Ami asked. "It may just give Ginga-san that extra boost that she needs."
Taiki sighed, "Whatever it takes to end this nightmare."
"Agreed." Yaten said in defeat. "I'm too tired to argue."
Minako laughed, "This is going to be a great party!"
Rei glared at Minako, Usagi, Makoto, and Ami. "You four better help me clean all the mess up!"
The four sweatdropped and nodded.
"I'll help too." Kakyuu volunteered. "I feel like I'm a part of this mess too."
Seiya nodded, "Me too. This trouble didn't start until I got here."
---------------
An hour later (6:30), the people started to pile in. They were fully aware that it was a
surprise party and were completely aware of the plans.
At exactly 7:00 PM, Ginga arrived with her four followers.
"What is it with you calling our leader out here like that?" Nezu asked with her head in
the air.
"I don't like this at all." Akane replied.
"I'm hungry." Reiko said as her stomache made a noise.
"Let's just get this overwith now." Suzu replied. "You have no clue how good Ginga-sama is
at fighting."
Ginga laughed, "Little girl, you have now clue how good I am."
Usagi just smiled in responce. "Don't worry about anything. Ginga-san, I know it is your
birthday."
"-San? I told you to address me as -sama! But, how do you know it's my birthday?" Ginga asked
still glaring.
"I didn't call you here for a challenge." Usagi giggled. "I hate fighting! Happy birthday,
Ginga-san!"
At that point, every one from Juuban High and some others came rushing out of the Hikawa
Shrine, making noise, and yelling, 'Surprise!'
"They're all here for you." Usagi smiled.
"Usagi's a thoughtful girl." Rei replied as she stepped foreward. "She cares for everyone,
even after all the things that you five did."
Reiko, Akane, Suzu, and Nezu held their heads in shame, "Sorry."
Ginga's eyes filled with tears of joy, "You went through all this... for me?"
Usagi nodded, "I even got the Three Lights to perform for you three!" As she lead Ginga and
the others inside, the Three Lights were ready to begin.
"This song," Seiya began. "Is dedicated to Ginga-san and her friends. Happy Birthday!
May this bring everyone happiness and a new beggining."
The Three Lights then began to sing one of their faster songs.
Ginga actually found herself having a goodtime. She formally apologized to Usagi and the
Three Lights...
And at the end of the day, Usagi gave Seiya her answer.
It was when the nine were sweeping up and having small conversations with each other.
"Seiya," Usagi said as she continued to sweep. "I'm glad that everything worked out."
"So am I." Seiya replied.
"Seiya," Usagi blushed. "I wanted to tell you something."
"Sure, Usagi, what is it?"
"Remember that day on the rooftop, when I was crying?"
Seiya nodded.
"I just wanted to let you know, that you're good enough." Usagi smiled as she kissed him.
~*The End*~
---------------------------------------------
A/N: Yeah, it was a little rushed. I noticed. No offense to anyone who looked this story,
but I was getting bored with it. I'm not the type that starts a fic and never finishes it
(though I have done it once or twice... ^^;) so I needed to finish it somehow.
I'm not doing a sequel or anything, but I have lots of Usagi+Seiya fics planned! They're one of
my fave anime couples! ^_^ So, please review and look out for my other stories!

Yaten nodded, "Ginga-san isn't the kind to take kindness with open arms!"
"Taiki-san, Yaten-kun," Ami began. "Please just try to believe. Usagi-chan's plan may not work,
but it's good to know that you tried to stop something."
Usagi and Rei gave the four the stacks of flyers.

Yaten yawned, "He's right. We're all tired."
"Please?" Ami asked. "It may just give Ginga-san that extra boost that she needs."
Taiki sighed, "Whatever it takes to end this nightmare."
"Agreed." Yaten said in defeat. "I'm too tired to argue."
Minako laughed, "This is going to be a great party!"
Rei glared at Minako, Usagi, Makoto, and Ami. "You four better help me clean all the mess up!"
The four sweatdropped and nodded.
"I'll help too." Kakyuu volunteered. "I feel like I'm a part of this mess too."
Seiya nodded, "Me too. This trouble didn't start until I got here."

An hour later (6:30), the people started to pile in. They were fully aware that it was a
surprise party and were completely aware of the plans.
At exactly 7:00 PM, Ginga arrived with her four followers.
"What is it with you calling our leader out here like that?" Nezu asked with her head in
the air.
"I don't like this at all." Akane replied.
"I'm hungry." Reiko said as her stomache made a noise.
"Let's just get this overwith now." Suzu replied. "You have no clue how good Ginga-sama is
at fighting."
Ginga laughed, "Little girl, you have now clue how good I am."
Usagi just smiled in responce. "Don't worry about anything. Ginga-san, I know it is your
birthday."
"-San? I told you to address me as -sama! But, how do you know it's my birthday?" Ginga asked
still glaring.
"I didn't call you here for a challenge." Usagi giggled. "I hate fighting! Happy birthday,
Ginga-san!"
At that point, every one from Juuban High and some others came rushing out of the Hikawa
Shrine, making noise, and yelling, 'Surprise!'
"They're all here for you." Usagi smiled.
"Usagi's a thoughtful girl." Rei replied as she stepped foreward. "She cares for everyone,
even after all the things that you five did."
Reiko, Akane, Suzu, and Nezu held their heads in shame, "Sorry."
Ginga's eyes filled with tears of joy, "You went through all this... for me?"
Usagi nodded, "I even got the Three Lights to perform for you three!" As she lead Ginga and
the others inside, the Three Lights were ready to begin.
"This song," Seiya began. "Is dedicated to Ginga-san and her friends. Happy Birthday!
May this bring everyone happiness and a new beggining."
The Three Lights then began to sing one of their faster songs.
Ginga actually found herself having a goodtime. She formally apologized to Usagi and the
Three Lights...
And at the end of the day, Usagi gave Seiya her answer.
It was when the nine were sweeping up and having small conversations with each other.
"Seiya," Usagi said as she continued to sweep. "I'm glad that everything worked out."
"So am I." Seiya replied.
"Seiya," Usagi blushed. "I wanted to tell you something."
"Sure, Usagi, what is it?"
"Remember that day on the rooftop, when I was crying?"
Seiya nodded.
"I just wanted to let you know, that you're good enough." Usagi smiled as she kissed him.

A/N: Yeah, it was a little rushed. I noticed. No offense to anyone who looked this story,
but I was getting bored with it. I'm not the type that starts a fic and never finishes it
(though I have done it once or twice... ^^;) so I needed to finish it somehow.
I'm not doing a sequel or anything, but I have lots of Usagi+Seiya fics planned! They're one of
my fave anime couples! ^_^ So, please review and look out for my other stories!
