Okay, so today wasn't my best day, I mean waking up after what you think is 2 minutes and then proceeding that being forced to rush about and hop into a van just to go and pick up a friend and travel witht he rest of them...what was it? about 100 miles or something? I don't think so. I decided to fall asleep. And being the kind cutious girls they were... (yeah RIGHT! only Ami-chan is really like that!) they decided to bicker and argue about who I could and couldn't lean on. In the end it was decided that Ami got that honor. I just hoped that i didn't drool on her.

And so it was that I got to sleep the hour car drive in peice and silence unawearof the dangers that would just await me. I mean isn't that obvious? You can never have a good day, something always messes that up.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

When I was rudely awaken by Rei-chan yelling in my face I decided it was due time to set up my things and then who knows, maybe go for a dip in the lake or something, I mean it couldn't be THAT cold, right? okay, fine it's damn near likely that it will be freezing cold. At least it will wake me up, right? right!

So with that i set up my dome tent in a fever, yet as I looked at my handy work I noticed it kind of....looked like a piramid. The hell!? How did it get like that. And so with that I cast a look to Makoto and got her to help me set it up. After she was done, and had pushed me out of the way as I was appearently blocking her light my tent looked right. That is as right as a tent that is covered in stars, cresent moons and Bunnies can look. it was a birthday present to go along with my comforter OKAY!?

And with that and a couple of jokes by Rei-chan I was off and heading to the lake, my towel in hand as I walked. And me being me I figured that it was safe to go skinny dipping, after all the girls would tell me if there was a guy in the area... wouldn't they?

As I walked I decided to take a look around at the scenary, it was relatively nice. it was a mixed forest from what I could tell, then again I was never one to be fully sure on tree types, the only kind I knew really was Sakura Trees, I mean how could you not kbnow about Sakura tree's when there is a festival on it every year? Anyways, the trees were nicely laid out and thats when I saw the lake.

The sun was just getting high into the sky, the lake seemed to glow with the way that the sun light was flickering off the surface and pulling it in. Thats when I decided to strip down, and walk in. After all, I was safe from the world, and especially the hunky Mamoru, who dispite my willingness I think that I really liked him. Not that I'd ever admit it outloud of course.

I never the less glanced around nervously as i bared my body and quickly ran in so that no matter what the only thing that someone could see was a little blur of my skin and my golden hair, which I had taken down from the buns or 'odanagos' that Mamoru-baka called them. can I help it that those where the royal insignia of the Moon that all Princesses and Queens had worn before? Is it MY fault that I was the only Moon princess until the time came that I.. *cough* had a kid? NOPE! So I had to respect my elders and their heritage.

And so I sliped into the water, letting out a little gasp as the cool water hit my exposed skin and slipped in further, my hair floating around me like a curtain that I was privately glad to have. After a few moments I dove under and swam about 10 feet out, then swam back again and popped my head up once more.

Thats when I saw what I didn't exspect to see. So much in fact that I ended up screaming my highest pitch scream that I ever had, causing everyone to come and see what I was screaming about now.
