Lady A: After sending this story to an MST writer, and not seeing any
finished product, I figured I'd take a crack at this myself. After all, if I can't laugh at myself, what
am I doing posting my fanfics anyways?
I knew this story was dumb when I finished it, and I know I can't stay
mad at myself for too long. I'm too
cute. Hah! Just kidding! Enjoy my
hackery! Later!
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Geez, would you get a
load of that line?" asked Makoto.
Lady A: And would you get a load of that opening line?
"Yeah, and that's only the drive-through," said Minako.
"But it's totally worth
it, minna! Naru says that they're to DIE for," said Usagi.
"That's NOT funny, Usa" said Mamoru, who had somehow been dragged
into this trip. He had faced up to Queen Beryl and had literally been brought
back from the dead. He didn't want to hear about death or dying for a LONG
time.
Of course, Usagi didn't have to work very *hard* at getting Mamoru to take her
and the girls to Krispy Kreme.
Lady A: Well, duh. It's times like this that I'm VERY jealous of Usagi…waitaminit…she's FICTIONAL!
He couldn't help it....he was a
slave to her puppy dog eyes.
Lady A: Once again, some girls have all the luck!
But, looking at the happy expression that they contained when he said yes,
he honestly admitted to himself that he didn't mind one bit. Life was a
precious gift...too precious for regrets.
Lady A: Or corny B-movie dialogue.
Usagi, Minako, Makoto, Ami, Rei and Mamoru were standing in front of the Krispy
Kreme donut shop, which had recently been built just outside of Tokyo.
Lady A: Where else? Aren't all the
new stores in the SM continuum located in or around Tokyo?
Naru had been raving about the
donuts ever since the donut shop had opened its doors, and Umino had been
blabbing about the tasty pastries all over cyberspace, which was unusual for
Umino, whose online gossip usually involved pretty girls.
Lady A: Well, that and Monty Python and The Holy Grail. We are the Knights That Say Ni! Ni!
"Well, what are we waiting
for? Let's go in!" enthused Usagi.
"I don't know...you know that each donut is 210 calories, 110 of them from
fat..."
Lady A: Sad, but true. The rest are
probably sugar.
"Oh, Ami, don't be such a wet blanket. Live a little," said Makoto,
elbowing Ami.
"Ouch!" said Ami, glaring at Makoto, who had the grace to grin
sheepishly.
Everyone else rolled their eyes and joined the long, long line.
"Oooh, oooh, you can see how the donuts are made!" exclaimed Makoto.
"Hai, I've read all about it. They've been using the same recipe since
1933, which the founder purchased from a failing donut shop in Paducah,
Kentucky..."
Lady A: This is actually true, at least according to the Krispy Kreme
website.
"Geez, Ami! You sound like a textbook! Must you make even a DONUT seem
like school?" whined Usagi.
Ami simply blushed and everyone else giggled, used to Ami getting frequently
carried away when it came to information.
Lady A: Hey! I resemble that remark…
"OHMIGOSH!" squealed Usagi, disentangling herself from Mamoru's arm.
"It's the SAMPLE LADY! Oooh, oooh, over here, onegai!"
The sample lady smiled and walked towards the girls. "Mmmm!" said
Usagi, grabbing a donut. "Sample sample sample!" She got all starry
eyed and tore into her donut.
"I do enjoy watching customers enjoy their food," said the sample
lady, smiling. "Would you girls also like a sample?"
Minako, Makoto, Rei and Ami all eagerly nodded and happily enjoyed their
donuts.
"Well, my name is Kristen," said the lady. "Let me know if you
need anything else."
"WAIT!" shouted Usagi.
"Yes?"
"I'm still not convinced! I need another sample," she said, smiling.
"Gomen, but everyone only gets one sample," she said,
walking on.
"BUT I NEEED A DOOOOONUUUUUT!" exclaimed Usagi.
Lady A: ME TOO!
………
Hey, get back here! I MUST have a donut! Never mind that I'm diabetic! It's WORTH it!
Lady A sees men in white coming towards her
Lady A: Eep!
"Relax, love. I'll buy a dozen glazed, just for you," said Mamoru,
smiling.
"Really?"
Mamoru nodded.
"SUGOI! You're the BEST, Mamo-chan!" she said, enveloping her hapless
boyfriend in a crushing bear hug.
"Uh oh...." whispered Rei to Makoto. "Sugar high alert."
"She'll be bouncing off the walls for days," agreed Makoto.
Lady A: Boingy, boingy, boingy, boingy…
Rei giggled as Usagi continued to stare, starry eyed, into space. But even
Mamoru wasn't sure if her loving gaze was due to him...or the donuts.
Lady A: I'd say it's a tie.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Mmmm...thefe awe the BEFT!" said Usagi, her mouth
full of donuts.
"Geez, Usagi, we don't need to see the contents of your mouth!"
wailed Rei.
"But thefe awe SO GOOB!"
"Definetly gross," said Minako.
"What is that, the sixth donut you've eaten?" asked Makoto, arching
her eyebrows.
"Sevenf," said Usagi, reaching for another donut. She swallowed and
said, "Mamo-chan said I could have this dozen all to myself," she
said.
"But not all at once!" exclaimed Ami. "That's over a thousand
calories you've eaten in half an hour!
Mamoru smiled. 'Where DOES she put it all?' he wondered.
Lady A: Probably in her odangos. Maybe I should call her Sailor Donut Head…nah
;)
He stared at his love, a medical miracle at a mere ninety pounds. 'Then
again, it's not like she doesn't work out,' he thought, remembering all the
times he had crashed into Usagi during her weekday marathons to Juuban junior
high, plus her battles as Sailor Moon.
Lady A: Well, she MUST work out a heckuva lot! I still say she stores food in those odangos. Or maybe she puts it in her locket when Luna's
not looking…
"Well, it's getting late, minna. We have to be heading home," said
Minako.
"Should I tell your mother you're at the temple?" asked Rei, smiling.
"Hai," said Usagi, looking up at Mamoru adoringly.
"Geez, with all the nights you've slept at the temple, your parents must
think you're pretty religious by now," said Makoto.
"Yeah, right, I'm a regular priestess in training," said Usagi,
laughing. "See you all tomorrow, right?"
"Yeah, we could use some serious shopping to burn off those donuts,"
said Minako.
"Definitely," agreed Usagi, watching her friends leave Mamoru's
apartment.
"Well, I'll be taking my bath now," said Usagi.
"OK, just promise you'll leave some hot water for me," said Mamoru,
smiling.
"Oh, come on, Mamo-chan, I thought you were coming with?"
Lady A: Remember, kiddies; nice girls don't do this to their
boyfriends!
"U-usako!" he said, flushing beet red. He then took off into the bathroom, locking the door, turning on the shower water.
"Hey! Come on!" yelled Usagi, pounding on the door. Even though she really didn't mind at all. Although she couldn't help wondering how Mamoru took such long showers and still left more than enough hot water for her bath...
It was all
part of their little game. She teases him, he showers, then she falls asleep at
the door and he carries her to bed and drifts off to sleep by her side. He
smiled as the icy water cooled him off. He never got tired of it.
Lady A: Excuse me? I'd get tired of
cold showers PRETTY quickly. They don't
work anyways…
He exited the shower clad in his favorite towel and bathrobe-
Lady A: See what I mean?
…and smiled at the sight of his sleeping angel. He was about
to carry her off when he heard her communicator go off.
Sighing, he opened the compact, revealing a breathless Luna staring desperately
at him. "Mamoru!" she said.
"We really need to stop meeting like this, Luna," he said to the
black cat.
Lady A: Like Mamoru would ever say that!
Luna rolled her eyes. "Wake up that Meatball Head and
tell her that there's trouble at the Krispy Kreme!"
Lady A: Like you didn't see that one coming! This fic is so much fun to MST…
"Hai, Sailor Catnip," he said, smiling and shutting the compact as
she ranted on how much she HATED to be called that name.
Lady A: Like Luna would let him live after that! Good thing Mamoru keeps his doors locked at night…
He gently shook his beloved and moments later they were leaping from rooftop to rooftop on their way to the donut shop.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Luna, you said there was trouble here!" exclaimed a tired and VERY
cranky Sailor Moon.
"Yeah, it's quiet enough to hear a pin drop!" said Sailor Venus.
"I know what I heard," said Luna, licking her fur in annoyance.
Lady A: Hairball alert!
"Are you sure it wasn't just a bad reaction from all that tuna you
ate?" asked Usagi, rubbing her eyes.
Lady A: Here it comes!
"HAI!" she shouted.
Lady A: Don't you mean "HA-ACK?"
Luna: Well, if you insist, HACK!
Lady A: Well, that was uncalled for!
"Well, let's get to it, then," said Sailor
Mars, "I need my beauty sleep.
Lady A: And some hormone replacements to quell your permanent PMS,
chickie! Oops! Did I say that out loud?
"That's for sure," quipped Sailor Moon.
"HEY! You take that back!"
"No way. I only speak the truth," said Sailor Moon, nodding smugly.
"Just look at all those bags under your eyes..."
Lady A: Not to mention your odangos are on too tight…
"GRRR! Oooh, I don't have TIME for this!" she said, storming into
Krispy Kreme.
Once inside, they heard a blood-curdling scream. "NOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
*grumble grumble* "Just make me a donut, you pathetic human!"
"I've told you, I'm not trained to run the machine! Come back during
regular business hours!"
"'Pathetic human'?" asked Sailor Mercury.
"How rude," agreed Sailor Mars.
The Senshi all rushed into the back of the store. But nothing could prepare
them for what they saw. Sailor Moon was the first to burst out laughing, and
even the stoic Tuxedo Mask could hardly keep a straight face.
Cornering a poor, harassed Kristen (AN: The sample lady, remember?) was
a pissed off, and presumably hungry Rubeus, holding a large, bag-like object
and waving it threateningly at the senshi.
"STAY BACK!" threatened Rubeus. "Or THIS ONE gets it!"
Sailor Moon started to give her obligatory speech, "You corner poor
employees to feed your evil desires! This villainy will not do! In the name of
the Moon, I will...I will...." But she was unable to finish, breaking out
in a fit of hysterical laughter.
"Come on, get it together, Sailor Moon!" said Sailor Mars.
"B-but he's...attacking her with...a...FROSTING GUN!" she said,
rolling on the floor laughing.
"Oh." said Rubeus, dropping the gun. For a big Dark Moon general, he
felt very foolish. "Esmeraude's going to have a field day with this one, I
just KNOW it," he mumbled.
Sailor Moon stopped laughing and said sympathetically, "Look, I've done
some pretty silly things in the name of food," she said, patting Rubeus on
the shoulder.
Lady A: What donut-seeking glutton wouldn't? I would!
"But is a donut really worth all this?"
Lady A: YES!
"Why didn't you just BUY a
donut?"
"Well, I don't have any money. Us super-villains don't make all that much
money. We mainly get paid in rioting, mayhem, that kind of thing. Besides, it
wouldn't be very villain-like to come in and BUY a donut! It wouldn't sit well
with my reputation," he finished, sniffing.
"Well, if you just leave this place, your reputation will go
unharmed," said Sailor Moon.
"Aw, but I wanted to fight!" he said.
Lady A: Everybody was Kung-Fu fighting!
Na na na na na na…
Mars came up to Sailor Moon and looked her straight in the eye.
"You mean we're LETTING him get away?
Lady A turns stops singing…thank goodness J
Sailor Moon nodded.
"OK, then I will go. But you haven't heard the last of Rubeus!" he
said, disappearing off in a warp hole.
"Whew. I'm glad that's over. Boy, I hope I haven't missed the Late Show,"
said Jupiter.
Lady A: Not to mention midnight on Cartoon network! No, I am not a paid endorser…
Suddenly Rubeus reappeared, grabbing a box of glazed donuts. "But I'm
taking THESE with me!" he yelled triumphantly, then vanished.
The Senshi all shook their heads, untied Kristen and were about to call it a
night when Sailor Moon said, "Unfair! He got the last box!"
"Come on, Sailor Moon, we've all had a busy night. Let's go..." said
Tuxedo Mask.
"NO! Not until she makes me a donut!"
Lady A: Hear, hear! Make one for me,
too!
At this, all of the senshi face-faulted.
"But I'm the superheroine of Tokyo! I deserve a donut!"
Lady A: And I'm the author, dammit!
Well, of this fanfic, anyways…
"Of course, Sailor Moon," said Tuxedo Mask, rolling his eyes.
"Come on, I'll buy you a dozen tomorrow..."
"But I want it NOW!"
But it was no use as Tuxedo Mask lifted Sailor Moon off, and carried her,
kicking and screaming, into the night.
Lady A: I'd like to see this in the anime.
It'd be priceless.
"Geez, I don't get paid enough for this," said Kristen. She shrugged
her shoulders and began to clean up.
Lady A: Neither do I! Oh yeah…I'm
not Naoko Takeuchi…am I? Lady A looks in
the mirror. Didn't think
so.
