Disclaimer: Heh, heh! I forgot to put this in chapter 1, but I never have
and unless by extreme chance never will own Sailor Moon.
At the arcade
Usagi stopped by to play a few round of Sailor V before going home and she ended up staying all afternoon. She was so engrossed in her game that she didn't notice a shadow walk up behind her.
"You're pretty good."
Usagi turned around slowly to see Nemesis. "Hi! You shocked me coming up so quietly. Do you come here often?"
"I'm totally new to this area. Would you mind showing me around?"
"Sure! Now's not a good time though. I have to be going home soon. How about we meet here tomorrow at 3?"
"That's fine with me, I'm free all afternoon Friday. See you then."
"Bye."
Usagi watched as Nemesis left the arcade. Andrew, the arcade manager, walked up to Usagi.
"Hey Usa! Who's the babe? I haven't seen her around before."
"Her name's Nemesis and she's new here."
Usagi left the arcade. As she walked home she felt as if she was being followed. Usagi tried to shake the feeling but was unsuccessful. She was lectured about coming home on time when she reached home but her mind was elsewhere. 'What was following me?' Usagi thought.

In a dingy apartment
"I followed her home mistress. Do you want me to take her star seed?" asked a midnight colored cat.
"No, I want to do some more poking around before I start to collect more star seeds. Poke around her house and tail her around. She is bound to lead us to other star seeds," responded its mistress.
"Should I hide my mark?"
"Yes. If she is who I think she is, she would recognize it. Be careful. If you're caught, I can't bail you out."
The cat nods and makes the black crescent moon on her forehead vanish. "Shall I set out now?"
"No, I'm tailing her at 3 tomorrow. You needn't bother her that morning; she's in school and cats aren't allowed. Investigate the Cherry Hill Temple. Act cute and the priestess there might give you a treat." She smirked. The cat scowled and leapt out the window. "Oh well. Now would be a good time to do my homework. Pity I still have to go to school even though I am at least 5,000 years old." She yawned. "I'll do it after taking a quick nap." She fell asleep and forgot completely about the homework assignment.

At school the next day
"All right class, please place your homework on your desk," the teacher called out. She walked the rows picking up homework from each student. When she reached Usagi and Nemesis, she announced, "It seems that Usagi has forgotten yet again to do her homework." She looked at Nemesis's desk. "It seems Miss Kamikaze also didn't do her homework. Why did neither of you do the homework?"
"I forgot," Usagi mumbled sheepishly.
"I had better things to do," Nemesis announced defiantly.
"You both will stay after with me today. Usagi for not having her homework and Nemesis for her cheek," the teacher ordered.
'You will regret that,' Nemesis thought bitterly as she fingered her silver collar.
All right! Chapter 2 is up! Review for chapter three!
