'How much of that sushi did you eat?' Hoshiko asked her best friend, who was currently getting sick in the girl's bathroom.
'Not that much…' Akiko said before leaning over the toilet-bowl again. 'Only about twelve…'
'Twelve?!' Hoshiko gasped as Akiko's head disappeared into the bowl again. 'Aki, you know six is enough before you start getting sick!'
'Ok, so I got a little carried away…' Akiko answered, rather pale. She walked over to the sink, splashed some water on her face and rinsed her mouth out. 'They were so good, though!'
'Aki-chan…' Hoshiko said as she put an arm around her friend's shoulder, 'you're an idiot.'
'Yeah, probably.' Aki answered with a thin smile.
'And if your boyfriend kisses you, I'm going to hurl.'
'Yeah, I know.' Aki answered, and they walked down the hall to their lockers. Sure enough, Aki's boyfriend, Yamato, was by her locker, kissing her on the cheek.
'Don't go to her mouth, she just got sick.' Hoshiko said with a laugh and Yamato's face twisted into disgust.
'That's nasty.' He said, and Aki glared at him.
'Mhm, well, now that I've officially grossed you out, I'm going home.' Hoshiko said, and Aki followed beside her, Yamato on her shoulder.
'You're not staying after?'
'Nope. I'm going home, I've had a bad day, I want to sleeeeeeeeeep.' She said, and walked out of the door of the school, walking down the street and to her apartment building. She opened the door, and even though no one except her was there, she yelled out any way.
'Tadaima!' she called through the empty house, and was met by her pet cat Dai. The cat looked up thoughtfully at her, and then proceeded to rub against Hoshiko's school-socks. They were bright green socks, with matching skirt and white shirt.
'I hate uniforms, I hate skirts, I want to go back to an American school where I can wear my jeans.' She said, and opened her fridge door.
Hoshiko was a fourteen-year-old girl with brown hair and bright blue eyes. She always held her hair back in a half-ponytail, and it was curly. Bangs covered her forehead, while her skin seemed slightly tan. She was adopted, she knew that, but whoever her real mother and father was, she didn't know. She could be rather hyper at times, but today had, for whatever reason, gotten to her.
She took a soda out of her fridge and flopped down on her bed. After drinking her soft drink in one gulp she laid her head down on a pillow and fell asleep.
'Europa…' a voice called out through the darkness. 'Europa, look at me.' Hoshiko whined a bit at the voice that disturbed her, but looked up anyway. In front of her stood a woman in a white, flowing gown, with hair of blonde, and eyes like her own. She looked grand, and Hoshiko backed up when she saw the woman.
'Europa, I am Queen Serenity, and I have come to tell you something. You are my cousin from long ago. If you would remember anything, you would remember me as Usagi, a young girl in the town you were born in.'
'What? Who are you?' Hoshiko said, looking up in suspicion. The woman just smiled at her, and continued.
'I was part of a team called the Sailor Scouts, a group of girls with magical powers, sent to save the world. The Sailor Scouts have sense then grown old, and we are in need of help again. You are Sailor Europa, moon of the planet Jupiter, and near you, you will find four other girls with similar titles. You are the new Sailor Scouts, and you must fight for the good of man-kind.' She said, and in her hands appeared a silver scepter with a crescent moon on the top of it. 'You are the guardian of the silver moon item. It will help you find your powers and use them accordingly. Good luck on your quest, my cousin.' She said and then faded away.
Hoshiko woke up with a start and looked frantically around her room. There was no one there except her and her cat. It cocked it's head when she moved the bed, but quickly laid back down, obviously not wanting to be bothered.
'Freaky dream… ow!' Hoshiko said, and sat up, rubbing her back where the pointy object had decided to stab her. When she looked at it, though, her eyes grew wide in surprise.
'Wah!' she cried, dropping the object from her dream on the bed. 'What is that thing?' She said, and for a moment had a flash back of the dream that had just happened. 'Sailor Scout, eh? I think I'm going insane.' She muttered, and put the object on a high shelf in her room. As she walked out she noticed Dai sitting up, starring at it. She dismissed it quickly, though, too hungry to care.
