*********One Month Prior*************

Sunlight streamed through the door and into Rei's room giving everything a soft glow. This room was neat and tidy and had a lingering smell of old sandalwood.

Sitting nearest the door was an auburn haired girl with sparkling green eyes, despite her slim frame you could almost feel the strength radiating off her body in waves. Any passerby would know that this wasn't a girl to be trifled with. And there she sat her nose buried in a cook book trying to find a new recipe for sushi.

Leaning against the bed was a girl with long, golden blonde hair and bright blue eyes, with a edition of Cosmo Girl in her lap, the magazine however was forgotten as she stared dreamily into space as she thought about how her own career as a model would be.

Next came a girl with short blue hair that matched her eyes. This girl was totally absorbed in the book in front of her. Taking a look at the cover we see that this is no magazine, the book's spine says "Quantum Physics".

The last person in the room, a girl with long raven black hair and violet eyes is pacing back and forth and seems to be very agitated.

" Ohhh, where IS she?" An irate Rei demanded as she pounded her fist onto the table for what had to be the 30th time.

"Relax Rei, I bet she's on here way, you know Usagi she can' t be anywhere early." Makoto assured Rei not looking up from the cook book she was avidly pursuing..

" That's the problem! How can we expect her to be a leader and to be there when we need her when she can't even be on time for one meeting?" Rei demanded in what she hoped sounded like righteous anger instead of the jealously she sometimes felt when ever Usagi did something like this.

" You guys, Usagi's 16th birthday is almost here." Minako said looking up from her magazine hoping to diffuse the argument she felt boiling between the two girls.

" That's right! I wonder if Darien remembered?" Ami said thoughtfully looking up from her book as well.

"Doubtful, but I have the perfect idea on how to get Usagi. Ami I am going to need your help planning, and Minako I am going to need you to keep Usagi occupied. Makoto call Darien and get him here." Rei said automatically taking lead.

Makoto quickly pulled her pager from the pocket of her green mid-calf skirt and paged Darien.

"Darien here, what's the problem ladies?" Darien said, his jet black hair soaked to his head and tiny rivulets of water running down his face and nose. "He's obviously not pleased to be called for nothing!" Makoto thought she could still hear the shower in the background!

"Darien we need you to get here as soon as you can, Rei has a plan she wants to talk to us about! How soon can you be here, oh and don't tell Usagi Rei doesn't want her to know" Makoto said, hoping that Darien wouldn't ask questions she would be unable to answer just then.

Darien sighed, annoyed but not overly so. " Yeah Makoto I can be there in about 10 minutes, let me get dressed, and tell Rei the next time she decides to have someone call me, and none of you are getting attacked and the Negaverse is for once behaving I will seriously reconsider getting her something for her birthday!" Darien abruptly cut off the connection before Makoto had a chance to say anything.

"Rei, Darien said give him 10 minutes" Makoto giggled aloud " He was in the shower Rei, and he said and I quote "tell Rei the next time she decides to have someone call me, and none of you are getting attacked and the Negaverse is for once behaving I will seriously reconsider getting her something for her birthday" Makoto relayed to the girls imitating Dariens tone of voice perfectly....making all the girls dissolve into hysterical laughter.

Rei had just began to outline the gist of the plan when Darien bounded quickly up the Shrine steps and into the room 10 minutes later...

" So girls, what did I miss besides my shower?" Darien said with forced cheerfulness and he took a seat next to Ami and shot Rei an annoyed look.

Ami giggled and Rei shot him a nasty look, before telling him what she had told the other scouts. " But that is just the beginning" Rei said " this is where the real fun begins." with exaggerated slowness she unrolled a scroll and as one they gasped at what they saw written there.

" Okay guys here's the plan..........."
