Chapter 3: The Answer... AKA......Meet Sailor V


Yaten awoke grumbling. Sometime during the night, Minako had kicked him out of the bed, literally. He looked up to see she was a cat again. " Not again..... MINAKO-CHAN!" Minako awoke groggily. " What? I'm tired.
" " You're a cat again."
" WHAT?!!!" Minako jumped up and looked at herself. She sniffled and began to cry.
"WHY!!! I thought I was myself again."
Yaten sighed and petted her. " There there."
" Yaten-kun, take me to the Hikawa Shrine please. Rei-chan might me able to help."
" Why not? If it gets you cured." Yaten sighed. " Arigatou!" Minako grinned.

Yaten-kun can be such a sweetie.....

-------------------------------------------------------------

The brown haired girl grinned in her dark room. "It worked. My revenge is going very well...... ne?"
" Yessss................you've done wellllllllll.... Kasumi..."
-----------------------------------------------------------------

Rei was munching on one of Mako's chocolate cakes. " Where's Minako-chan?" Usagi asked.
" I told you! She wasn't home when I called her. She must be out."
"Ah, well more cakes for us." Mako said admiring her own work. Ami nibbled one while reading Advanced Physics.
There was a knock on the door. " Who is it?"
" Rei-san, uh..... Yaten Kou is here."
" YATEN-KUN? Send him in, Yuuichirou!"
" Right." Yuuichirou opened the door and let Yaten in, grumbling how Rei was his.
Yaten stepped in and saw cakes. He sat down and took one. " Oishii." he said giving one to Minako who purred.
" Thanks, I made them myself."
" WHAT A CUTE KITTY!" Usagi said grabbing Minako and looking at her.
" Uh, be careful with Aino please!"
" Aino?!" the four girls asked slyly.
" Yaten-kun, why did you name your cat after Minako?" Ami asked.
" Must be the ribbon." Usagi giggled. Luna and Artemis looked on annoyed.

Those two cats...... they hate not having attention.

" What brings you here, Yaten-kun?" Mako asked.
" Well, you see..." Yaten began trying to figure out how to explain it. Usagi meanwhile was playing with Aino and lifting her in the air, driving Minako insane. " USAGI-CHAN! STOP IT!!!! I'M GETTING DIZZY!" Minako yelled. Usagi dropped Minako. Six thuds were heard.

Yes, those ninnies passed out.

After explaining the situation, everyone went into the fire room. Rei began chanting and asking the fire for an answer. They saw an image of a person chanting and lighting a candle. The image faded.
" Well, Minako-chan, looks like you've been cursed by a miko."
" Cursed?! WHY ME?"
" Who knows, but it's definitely a curse. I've heard of it actually." Rei said as she rummaged through old Shinto books. She pulled one out and began reading. "Here it is... The NyanNyan Curse."

Can we say a little strange? I mean, who names a curse after those blue haired servants from Fushigi Yuugi anyway?!

" It's a curse a miko can place on someone to exact revenge. It turns a person into a cat for every cycle of the full moon, but instead of night, you remain a cat during the day, and return to human form at night. This happened for the three days of the full moon."
" So, for three days every month, I'll turn into a cat! How am I supposed to fight as a cat!"
" Fight?" Yaten asked confused.
" Uh… she means the Lovely Fighter and Sailor V games!" Usagi said quickly.
" Oh."

Good one Usagi-chan! You aren't a baka like Rei says!

Rei counted mentally. " Good news though! Today's the last day of the full moon, so tonight, when you turn human, you'll be human for another 28 days."
" This is REALLY confusing." Yaten sighed.
" Well, for today, I think its best you take care of Aino here Yaten-kun."
" Can't you guys? You're her friends!"
" Sorry, I have Luna and Artemis to take care of now." Usagi said.
" My mom doesn't like cats too much." Ami said.

"Ojii-chan said I couldn't let cats stay over night cause it drives the neighborhood dogs insane." " Well I can...." Mako began but Minako scratched her ankle.
" Can't! I... I got to clean!" Mako said laughing nervously after bashing Minako in the head.

Hey, I need my quality time with Yaten-kun.

Yaten walked down the street with Minako. " You know, I'm not planning on taking care of you next month."
" I know."
" I probably won't even be here."
" Why?"
" Nevermind. We got exactly 15 hours until you change back. What should we do?"
" Go see a Sailor V movie!"
" Really?" "
Yup."
" Okay. Sure.. I've been meaning to check it out."

Yaten-kun is so kawaii. He fed me popcorn!

" You really like Sailor V, ne?" Minako asked.
" Yeah, I guess. There's something about her.. she's very cute."
" I modeled for her you know. Well, as her."
"Really?"
" Yup. She's real you know."
"Really?"
" Yeah."
" Then why do you model as her? Why doesn't she do it."
" Would you if you were a sailor?" Yaten stopped.
" Yaten-kun?"
" I'm fine. I see your point. I guess you DO look like Sailor V."
"So then I'm really cute too."
" Hey, don't twist my words."
"I'm not. Would you like to meet her someday?"
" Sure."
" Okay."

Well, we'll have to arrange a little meeting.

15 hours later........

Minako waved goodbye as she walked towards her house in human form. " Things are looking up!" Minako said to herself. Then a very scary looking youma appeared. " YOUMA?! EEP!" Minako yelled running away. She was glad she had stopped by her house and had gotten her bag. She fished through it for her henshin wand. "Where is it?!" she yelled frantically. The only thing she found was a golden crescent brooch. " My brooch. There's where I put it! I must have left my wand at home. Ah well, c'est la V! MOON POWER TRANSFORM!"

Minako transformed into Sailor V. She ran back towards the Three Lights apartment and jumped on the roof as the youma followed. " You threaten me after I've had a really stressful day and was a little happy walking home! I won't forgive you! I am the soldier of love and beauty, Codename Sailor V, Sailor Venus!"


Still got it!

The youma growled and went after her. She jumped out of the way and jumped off the roof. The youma followed. " This one's stubborn."

Meanwhile, Yaten was looking out his window when he saw Sailor V jumping down to the ground right in front of him and a youma following. " Sailor V!!! She's REAL?! I better help her! Healer Star Power, make up!"

" Crescent Beam!" The youma screamed as the yellow beam burnt into its shoulder. " Hmmph take that!" Sailor V said crossing her arms. The youma yelled and wrapped it's tentacle hair around Sailor V's ankle, flipping her upside down. "AHH! ECCHI!!!" she yelled struggling to get free. " STAR SENSTIVE INFERNO!!!" the energy burnt the youma's hair off and Sailor V fell on her butt. She heard snapping and saw Sailor Star Healer standing a few feet away. " A passing star shining through the night sky, Sailor Star Healer! STAGE ON!"
Star Healer ran towards Sailor V and helped her up. " Thank you, Sailor Star Healer."
" No problem, Sailor V!" Healer said facing the youma. Sailor V ran towards the youma.
" Just call me V-chan!" she said jumping into the air.
" SAILOR V KICK!" she yelled kicking the youma in the face. She opened her compact.
" VENUS POWER!" Energy gathered into the mirror.
" CRESCENT SHOWER!!!!!!" she yelled as a massive amount of yellow beams burst out from the compact, destroying the youma.
Sailor V picked up her compact and closed it. " VICTORY!" she said giving a V is for Victory sign. Healer thought for a minute.
" V-chan, you're Sailor Venus, aren't you?" Sailor V walked back to Healer and nodded.
"Yup."
" Then, why aren't you in your normal fuku. Why are you fighting as Sailor V?"
" Oh that? I... I left my henshin wand at home by accident."
" You did?"
" Yeah.." V sweatdropped.

Hey, I'm allowed at least two mess ups a day.

" Well, I guess I'll see you around, V-chan!"
" Okay, Healer. Nice working with you. SEE YA!" Sailor V said running off.


" I SAW HER!!!" Yaten said walking next to Minako down the street towards Crown.
"Who?"
" Sailor V!"
" Really?!"
" Yeah! She was fighting outside my window! Then a really cool sailor in black leather showed up and saved Sailor V."
" HA! Sailor V probably beat youma by herself!"
" Hey, with a little help." Yaten said. " Are you sure?" Minako asked.
" Yeah. I'm sure."

He's so cute when he tries to mix things up! Like he was there... HA!
