3 Chapter 1: Mariko Seiunno

It was a rainy summer day. Mariko and her pet cabbit, Mari-oki were walking home in the rain. Mari was 14 and going into 9th grade at Tokyo High. Mari wore tight dark blue jeans, a purple raincoat, and a black rock star shirt underneath the jacket. Mari-oki was dead asleep in her arms. It rained harder and she rushed home so fast she ran into a guy about 16 or 17. "I'm so sorry miss..I..I didn't mean to run into you like that, are you okay?!" said the guy. He was handsome, was tall, had dark brown, almost black hair, and green eyes. Mari smiled at him sweetly.

"I'm alright and it's not your fault I was in such a hurry to get home and... He cut Mari off. "Hush, I see you've got someone in your arms so let's not waken her." said the guy seeing the little brown fuzz in her arms. "Let me introduce myself before we talk any longer...I'm Yuki, what's your name? he asked Mari. "I'm Mariko, but most call me Mari. I can't stay and talk I have to put Mari-oki to bed now. Cya!" Mari said as she walked to her home. For some reason her heart was beating so fast when she was around Yuki.

Yuki quietly followed behind her just so he could see where she lives. Yuki hid in the bushes, as soon as Mari walked in her house her little 12-year- old sister, Rika was standing there waiting for her. "So just where have you been and who was that guy with you?" Rika asked as though she were her own mother. "Since when did you turn into mom?" Mari said. "And where I have been is none of your business Rika!" Mari snapped at her sister. "Okay okay I'm sorry no need to be mean about it Mariko." said Rika apologizing. "What guy are you talking about??" Mari asked her sister.

"The one that was with you...or he was." Rika said with a freaked out look on her face. "Well I have to go put Mari-oki to be now Rika so don't wake her up okay?" Mari said to her sister while she was walking into her bedroom. Mari put Mari-oki on her bed to sleep and went back to the living room to go watch TV.

Outside...

"She has to be Princess Nebula I just know it she had the same pet as the princess," Yuki whispered to himself. "I wonder if Mari-oki has told her yet that she is a Sailor Scout. Too bad Mari-oki didn't see me and maybe she would have told Mari that she is a Sailor Scout." Yuki said walking back to his house leaving a note on Mari's doorstep. He rang the doorbell and ran home.

Mariko went to answer the door and saw that no one was outside. "Hey what's this note?" Mari said picking it up and seeing her name on it. The note said:

Mari- I know we just met but there is something I need to ask you. Meet me at the park at 9 tonight and bring Mari-oki along. Yuki

"Hmm. I wonder what he wants to talk about," said Mari walking to her room and seeing that Mari-oki was awake and cleaning herself up.
