Well, we're back with chapter 2. Just a quick note: The chapter 1 title and the title to this chapter are from the show Powerpuff Girls, the episode with 'Bunny' in it. We don't own the titles or Sailor Moon or Doctor Who. Alas we are but poor, lowly peons just having fun. Well, read on!!!


Chapter 2: "She 'sploded!!!"


After Usagi made a complete circle for the fourth time, Rei took the lead, weaving through the maze of endless white corridors with roundeled doors. When she felt that they were a good enough distance away from "the Doctor" and his hot pink friend Peri, the Mars scout slowed their pace.

"I think we've been here before..." Usagi stated, trailing off as she saw the look on Rei's face.

"They all look the same, it DOESN'T MATTER!" Usagi's lower lip quivered, and then she mumbled out "I'm... I'm sorry, I'm scared." Rei, seeing that she had hurt her friend's feelings, immediately softened her approach. "It's okay Usagi-chan, I'm not mad. Here, let's duck into this room before they catch up to us. We've got a little bit of time because surely... a man of his size *cannot* move that fast..."

Usagi, heartened now, believing that her friend knew what she was doing, entered the dark room bravely, shutting and locking the door behind them both.

Little did they know that the Doctor and Peri were rapidly moving in on them...

"But Doctor... Why are we chasing them? They'll obviously end up somewhere
civilized... eventually... I mean, they do have to eat you know...."

"Well Peri, not everyone eats as often as you do," he declared, matter-of-factly, then turned to see his companion staring at him, open-mouthed. From her look, and his limited understanding of female humans, he realized that she was verrrry mad. "What are you standing there gaping for? I have two renegade Japanese girls in my TARDIS thank you very much and we mustn't have any dilly-dallying."

"Doctor!!! You just... Are you calling me FAT?"

"WHAT?" he exploded at the inference. Blustering, he recovered. "Umm, no no, I'm
definitely not calling you fat, I mean... You are a healthy and... growing girl and umm... JUST FORGET IT. Come on Susan." Flustered, red in the face from embarrassment, he turned and sped away, leaving Peri in the dust. Angrily, she clicked after him, hollering,
"MY NAME IS PERI!"

Meanwhile, inside the random room, Rei and Usagi were conspiring against the Doctor.

"Okay, well I vote we transform to better deal with him," Rei said, still clutching her transformation pen.

"But he seems... Uh, well... nice?" Rei gave her a look. "Okay, fine, we transform. Me first though..."

"Alright, just get on with it. We need to make this quick."

"MOON CRISIS MAKE-UP!!!" she screamed, going through a number of complicated
and silly motions, waving a little compact that looked Maybelline, or perhaps Clinique.

Immediately, she was naked. Rei turned away, used to this strangeness, and hoping that the Doctor did NOT choose that time to fling open the door. Colored ribbons surrounded her, forming a sailor outfit, complete with a moon tiara. She ended with a pose, with a lighted crescent moon behind her. Rei thought to herself oO I wonder where that comes from... I mean, we're in time and space, not on Earth. Sheesh, hogging stellar objects... who does she think she is? Copyrighting the moon...."

After all the hoopla, with lights and sounds and a chorus of folks singing "Sailor Moon! Ah ah, ah ah, ah ah, ah ah, ah ah," Usagi, now Sailor Moon, said "I'm finished, you can look now, your turn!"

"MARS CRYSTAL MAKE-UP!" Then, she too was naked. A chorus started singing
"Sailor Mars, Sailor Mars" and then Rei was ensconced in fire, creating her red outfit, also a sailor suit. "I'm done," she said a minute later, ending with her pose and her Mars symbol behind her. oO At least I don't demand the entire planet Mars be behind me when I finish. Humph. Oo

During this strange transformation, the Doctor and Peri were searching the halls for any sign of the duo. Peri turned a corner, avoiding the Doctor after his...comments... and saw lights coming from underneath a door. Pink lights. Oooh, she likes pink!

"Doctor, Doctor! Come here, I think I've found them." There was a pause as the Doctor followed the sound of her voice. When he approached her, she turned and asked, quietly, "Do you hear that singing?"

Both could faintly hear a whole lot of people singing the "ahs."

"Good grief! Now they've got a whole tribe of people in there! We must stop this
insanity!" But before he could move, a puff of smoke and a few licks of flame escaped from beneath the door.

"Doctor, they're setting the ship on fire!!!"

"That's it!!! They're mine!!!" He bolted to the door and used his sonic screwdriver to undo the lock, flinging open the door to reveal...

... Sailor Moon and Mars, shrieking. Sailor Moon recovered first and did a few hand motions while saying... "How dare you barge into this room while we were changing!!! Have you no respect for young maidens? In the name of the moon, I shall punish you."

The Doctor turned a peculiar shade of red, almost purple, but not quite.

Usagi looked over to Rei, expecting her to say her usual line but Rei simply shrugged thinking oO Chastise? Right... Uh huh. Oo

The Time Lord stammered out an apology and pulled the door shut, back out in the hall. Two times in one day he had offended a girl. Sometimes, he thought, it is too much trouble to keep women in the house. Even if they are good for saving.

"Why didn't you capture them? Doctor... Doctor?"

He looked up suddenly. "What an ingenious distraction method!! They embarrassed me and thus I backed out of the door... leaving them alone again... giving them time to escape! NO!"

The Doctor threw open the door and tore into the room, his eyes scanning every corner of the room for the pink and red duo. Unfortunately for him, he didn't look right in front of him. Which is where the pool was.

He had just enough time to register "Oh my. I wondered where that pool went." Before he went headlong into the deep end. Peri heard an echoing splash from outside the door. She paused, questioning whether or not she wanted to look. Laughing maniacally, Peri decided she DID want to see, and walked into the melee. One psychedelically colored Time Lord was completely submerged in a swimming pool. From a corner came "He drownded!!" followed by a different voice saying "No he didn't! He can swim! See?" The first voice responded with "Oh, okay, that's good then."

"Hello? Peri ventured into the room, around the pool, and towards the corner. Two Sailor suited girls emerged from behind storage crates. "Oh, you there. It's you two only in different clothes. I wish I could change that fast... But what kind of disguise is that if you just change clothes?"

Rei and Usagi glanced at each other for a response to the English girl. Rei, knowing a smidgen of English, was able to get out "Mars, Moon, Sailors" and "okay?"

Peri raised an eyebrow. "What?"

A sputtering Doctor climbed out of the pool and sloshed his way over to the three girls eyeing each other. "Peri, let me do the speaking," he said, gently pushing her out of the way. "Now," he said in Japanese to the other two, "What are you two doing?"

Sailor Moon started waving her arms around once more and started to make a speech yet again, but Sailor Mars stopped her. "Iie, Hime. No more," Mars said softly, trying to control her temper. The raven-haired scout turned back to the Doctor. "We are fighters of justice," she said simply.

The Doctor pursed his lips. "Fighters of justice? Interesting," he mumbled in English.

"They fight in those skirts?" Peri asked, overearing. "How?"

The Doctor shrugged and relayed the question to the two Japanese scouts. Rei glanced over at Usagi, who shrugged, then looked back at Peri. "Why is it any concern of yours what we fight in?"

The Doctor repeated the question in English and Peri narrowed her eyes. "You look stupid in those outfits. I don't see how you can stand to be seen in public with them."

Of course, the Doctor, being a man, told this to Rei and Usagi, who, in turn, glared at Peri. Usagi snorted. "At least we have something on other than pink!!" Rei laughed and added, "Hai, and our outfits look good on *us*."

After Peri heard those comments in English, her face grew a bright shade of red. "Why you... I can't believe you would... You slimy little... UGH!" And she ran out of the room, screaming in anger but mostly from the disappointment that she had failed to make friends with the only other girls on the TARDIS.

"Wow," Usagi mumbled, back in the room. "She 'sploded." Then the blonde grinned.
"Just like you usually do, Rei-chan!"

Rei growled at her friend and tackled her, causing the other girl to yelp in shock.

The Doctor watched all of this with interest. Maybe watching and not interacting would help him understand women. (But we all know better!)
