Rated R
By Miaka Hime
Ok, I just want to say this took me awhile to write, because well I kept getting idea's and then I'd have to edit something, then delete something to make the first part make sense and then I'd realize it was stupid and I'd have to start all over again! *deep breaths* Ok, I'm alright! Also I wanted to say I've started leaving a translation thing for people that don't understand the Japanese words I use because of the request of what one who reviews said. Anywhoo, here's the first chapter of Serenity!
Disclaimer- I do not own Sailor Moon or Gundum Wing but I do have a shrine of cool bands cause I got bored one day and made one but you can't have that either.

A five year old little girl sat cradled in the arms of her elder sister waiting in the emergency room. A young woman nurse came out of the double doors that made a loud screeching noise, Serenity looked up hoping that she had come to tell her that she'd fixed the problem with her mommy, daddy, but the nurse went into a office and chatted with a doctor that had been with her parents when they were brought in. Serenity looked at her dirty tennis shoes and amused herself by swinging her feet and hitting the chair.
Serenity's head snapped up again when she heard the loud screech again and saw a doctor come out. Haruka also looked up when the doctor came up. "Are you the sister of Ikuko Tsukino?" The doctor said looking too Serenity's aunt . "Hai, she's my step sister, is my sister alright?" She asked, worry etched in her lovely features. "I'm sorry, she and her husband didn't make it." He said. After a few more encouraging words, the doctor left and a tear slid down Serenity's cheek.

Serenity Usagi Tsukino walked into the classroom. The teacher whom was a middle aged balding man didn't seem to happy when he glanced at her and she knew perfectly why, as well. She like everyone else in the classroom was supposed to be wearing the stiff uniforms that were required but she was far from it.
Instead she wore comfortable baggy, navy blue, pants and a white long sleeved shirt, and a black t-shit over that, and as if to finish off the look she wore a black studded belt and head phones. Her CD player was held at her side.
The teacher stood and took the piece of paper she held in one of her hands. "Serenity Tsukino is it?" He asked. "Usagi." She corrected. "I don't go by Serenity." The teacher cleared his throat, his face slightly red from concealed anger. Her tone had not been exactly pleasant, in fact it was slightly mocking and reminded him of a student he'd have in his next class.
The teacher swallowed his anger however and turned to the class. "Minna, this is Usagi Tsukino, she just transferred here to our school." He said. Most of the class didn't look up as he addressed them, making his face turn a shade redder.
The teacher turned toward Usagi again, "Please take a seat in back, and put your head phones away. They're not permitted outside of the dor-" The Teacher stopped mid sentence, when he received a piercing glare from his new student and she answered his request by turning up the music which was something with electric guitars. She then walked to the back of the room and collapsed behind a red haired boy. (AN- I'm tired of her sitting right in back/in front/beside one of the gundum pilots/senshi can you tell?) She knew instantly that school was going to be hell.

Usagi walked through the halls yet again, only she was on her way to the female dorms, where she was going to meet her new dorm mate. She was wondering if her new dorm mate would give her the same reaction her teacher had. But she probably would be nicer to her dorm mate then her teachers, she generally was a bit of a tough girl, but she was nice when someone got to know her, or if she set her mind to it.
Usagi took out her key and put it the lock, and opened the door. Usagi peeked inside, then fully stepped into the room. There was no sign of her new dorm mate.
The dorm however was nice, it had a couch and television in the middle of the room along with a nice arm chair, and a small kitchen, there was a door leading to what Usagi assumed was the bedroom. Her stuff had been taken up to the room and was stacked neatly on one side of the couch.
Usagi was startled slightly when the door suddenly opened and she jumped back slightly to avoid being hit by it. "Gomen nasai! I didn't see you standing there." The girl said. She had long purple, almost black, hair and deep violet eyes, she was wearing the normal school uniform. "You must be Serenity, I'm Rei Hino, your new dorm mate." She said nicely. "Usagi, gomen, I don't go by my first name." Usagi corrected. "Oh, then Usagi." The girl said putting down some of her books on an end table next to the door. "I have a few friends coming over to study, is that alright?" She asked. "Fine with me, I'm just going to unpack my things." Usagi said grabbing a suit case and a box.
Rei nodded and walked off into the kitchen and Usagi went into the bedroom. She noticed the walls were a bare white and that most of Rei's things were all neatly placed on her side of the room. Usagi began to unpack her things on her side. She took out her comforter from the box and some sheets and tackled making her bed.
When she had finished with that she heard the sound of a knock and then the sound of a few girls come into the other room. She ignored them though, she didn't feel like introducing herself yet. So she started unpacking her candles and candle holders and set them on the window sill (SP?). After doing that she unpacked a battered old rabbit, the only thing she had from her childhood and set it down on the bed. She unpacked the usual things like clothes that mostly consisted of jeans and t-shirts and she then left the room to be faced with a group girls.
"Nani? I thought you said there were only a few, looks like there's enough for a party." Usagi said. Rei giggled. "Gomen." Rei apologized. "So who is everyone?" Usagi asked. "Oh! Gomen ne, I should have thought of that before! The blond one's Minako, the one with her nose in her math book is Ami, the one with the pony tail is Makoto." Rei introduced. "Hey." Usagi said with a wave to Rei's friends, before turning back to Rei. "I'm going out with my sister, I'll be back later, what time do the doors lock?" Usagi asked. "Around nine on weekdays, around one on weekends." Rei told her. "Arigatou." With that Usagi left and went to her sisters dorm and knocked.
"One minute!" She heard her sisters deep voice call. A few second later she saw her face appear. "Itouto-san! I was wondering when you'd show up." Haruka said coming out of the room, and shutting the door behind her. "I was unpacking some things." Usagi said with a shrug. "No biggie, lets go to a sushi bar, I haven't had Japanese food since we moved here." Haruka said switching languages. Usagi nodded. "Hai!" She was always a sucker for good food.
The two left the dorms and drove off in an old fixed up convertible and got to the restaurant in ten minuets flat. They ordered right away and then began to just chat.
"I still can't believe you convinced Setsuna to let you go to school with me." She said in her native tongue. "What can I say, I bullied her just like you did." Usagi said cracking a smile. "It feels good to talk in Japanese, I was beginning to miss it." Haruka said changing the subject. "Hai, everyone seems to speak English these days." Usagi said with a frown. "I usually talk to Hotaru in Japanese because she was born there, but she's not around all that often, she keeps saying something about visiting a friend that's lonely." Haruka said shrugging and taking a drink of water from her cup. "I think Rei, my roommate is Japanese, but I've only talked to her in English." Usagi said. "Oh well, so, give me the low down on your new room mate, I heard she's into witchcraft or something." Haruka said. Usagi rolled her eyes. "I think I found some meditation things in her room but she doesn't seem to be into witchcraft. She's pretty nice actually, but I have a feeling her friends are going to be around way to often for my taste, which kind of pisses me off that I didn't ask to room with you and-" Usagi stopped talking when their food arrived and the two decided to eat and talk more later.
After their dinner, they went back to the dorms and said goodnight. Usagi went into her dorm room and was happy to see only Minako left, Rei and Minako seemed to be doing a project so Usagi just grabbed the rest of her stuff and went into the bedroom and started to finish unpacking.
After she was finished Usagi changed into her pajama's which consisted of a white, mid rift, tank top and silkie, black, bottoms that dragged the floor slightly and a pair of fuzzy white slippers. She then proceeded to the bathroom and was glad to see Minako was gone and Rei was vegging out on the couch.
When Usagi was in the bathroom she quickly took her hair down from her unusual style and let her hair trail to the floor in a wave of gold. She quickly twisted her hair into twin braids and walked out of the bathroom. "I'm going to bed early, Oyasuminasai." She said quickly before going back into her room and falling into bed, falling asleep almost instantaneously and dreaming about getting drunk off of something called blueberry juice.
