Usagi woke up to the sound of her alarm clock. It was screaming at her to wake up. She slowly opened her eyes as she sat up. She looked at her clock. "Who set my alarm for 6:30?" Normally, Usagi wouldn't have to wake up until 6:45. She rubbed her eyes to un-fog them. "Well, I guess I should get up." She tried to think of something that she would be doing that day that would motivate herself to get up. All of a sudden she remembered what day it was and she smirked to herself. "Oh, hehehe, it's Monday."
Usagi jumped out of her bed. Although, she didn't particularly feel like going to school that day, knowing that she could stand up to her bullies was motivation enough to get her out of bed. She walked out of her room. She looked across the dark living room and saw one of her parents just coming out of their room. She walked farther into the room. She couldn't quite make out who it was so she walked to a small table that sat by the sofa and turned on a lamp that sat on it. The light revealed the figure as her father. "Daddy?"
Goku looked up and saw his daughter standing pretty much right in front of him. "Oh, hi Usagi. I see your alarm went off on time."
Usagi walked across the room and flipped a switch. A light on the ceiling turned on and lit the whole room. She looked to her father. "You were the one who set my alarm?"
Goku nodded. "Yep. We have to get an early start." Goku walked to a pantry in the hall and pulled a towel out.
Usagi followed him down the hall. "Why?"
Goku pulled out two towels. One for him, and the other for Usagi. He handed Usagi her towel. "Because, you may be going to school, but that doesn't mean your training stops. Now, you will be like Makoto. You will still have to train after school. But before school, I want you to practice flying. So you will fly to the outskirts of the city, and then we can take Nimbus the rest of the way until you are able to fly the whole way."
Usagi hadn't thought of that before. "That's a good idea." She grabbed the towel that her father held out to her. "Should I bring my training gear?"
Goku nodded. "Yes, we will train directly after school. Just stuff it in your book bag or something. We should stop talking so you can get ready." The two began to walk back up the hallway. Before they left each other, Goku turned to his daughter. "Now I don't want to get a phone call today saying that you got into a fight again, ok?" Usagi didn't say anything. "Ok, Usagi?"
Usagi innocently looked up at her father and put her hands behind her back. "Ok daddy." She watched him turn around and walk back into his room. 'Hehehe, it depends. I WILL get my Dragon Ball back no matter what.' Usagi turned around and skipped off to her bathroom.
She took her bath relatively fast. She pretty much only washed her hair since she hadn't the night before. She wanted to get ready as fast as possible so she could leave sooner. She wanted to allow herself as much time as possible to fly to the city.
When she was done taking her bath, she wrapped herself in her towel and drained to tub. She began to walk to the door of the bathroom but was sidetracked by her reflection in the mirror. "I wonder if I'm as strong as daddy and Gohan say I am." With that she held up her arms to the mirror. She was amazed at what she saw. "Cool, I have some muscle. It's probably from all the weighted cloths and exercising I've been doing lately." She smiled to herself. 'I can't wait until later.' Usagi relaxed her arm. She didn't understand why the muscles in her arm only appeared when she flexed. She shrugged and left the bathroom.
She noticed her mother coming out of her room. Had she been in there to wake her up? "Hi mommy."
Chi-Chi turned to look at her daughter. "Oh hi sweetie. I just put your uniform in your room. I washed it for you." She turned around and started walking down the hall. "I'm making breakfast now so hurry up. Your father will be waiting."
Usagi watched her mother walk down the hall. She was happy. Her mother hadn't even mentioned the night before. She now knew that she was no longer angry with her. She quickly remembered that she had to get ready for school and ran for her room.
Usagi saw her school uniform sitting on her bed. She picked it up and looked at it. All of the dirt had been washed out of it from the day of the fight. She began to think of the fight. She didn't want to fight again. Usagi had the upper hand this time but she still didn't want to fight. She didn't want to get suspended again. There had to be another way then fighting. Usagi would try talking to Haruka before she made her decision. She began to get herself dressed and put her hair up in her usual hairstyle.
~*~*~
When Usagi walked into the kitchen her mother was just serving her father his food. She sat in her chair across the table from her father. "Hi guys."
Goku was eating before Chi-Chi had even finished putting food on his plate. He looked up to see his daughter sitting across the table from him like she always had. "Hi Usagi. You seem happy this morning."
Usagi got her own food. She didn't have time to wait for her mother to do it. "I am." Usagi felt like she was starting her first day of school. In a way she was but this time it was going to be done right. She wasn't going to let anyone pick on her. She would tell them just what she thought about them if they tried anything with her. "When do we leave?" Usagi couldn't wait to go fly again. She hadn't done it since Saturday. She also couldn't wait to see Minako and Makoto. She hadn't seen them since Thursday.
Goku was on his third helping. "When we are finished eating."
Chi-Chi sat down at the table in between the two Saiyans. She looked at her daughter who was eating quite fast. "Usagi, slow down. You don't have to rush. You are going to make yourself sick. Don't forget what happened the last time that you rushed like this. You were as sick as a dog."
Usagi slowed down a bit. Her mother was right about that. She didn't want to go through something like that again. She was sick to her stomach for a whole day. She began to eat at her normal pace again. She was just so excited and she wanted to leave as soon as possible.
Goku served himself his fifth helping. "Don't worry Usagi, I'm nearly finished."
Chi-Chi looked at the dish of food that she had set out on the table and then back at her husband. "That's because there is nothing left."
Goku laughed as he scratched his head. "Well what do ya know. I ate it all again. I hope neither of you wanted more."
Chi-Chi playfully glared at her husband. "You are just lucky that I don't want any." She looked at Usagi who was already finished and waiting. "I don't think Usagi has any complaints either. You just want to leave don't you?"
Usagi nodded. She jumped down off of her chair and went to stand by her father. She rested her head on the table and began to stare at him while he was eating.
Goku could feel her eyes on him. He turned to look at her. "What?"
Usagi grabbed his arm and tugged on it. "Can we PLEEEESE go daddy?" She couldn't stand it anymore. The anxiety was killing her. Her mood about going back to school had changed a considerably large amount since the night before.
Goku laughed at his daughter and then looked at his bowl of food. It was nearly empty. He looked back down at Usagi who was begging him with her eyes. "All right, all right. We can go. Don't have a heart attack."
Usagi jumped up and then ran to the family room where the main door out of the house was. "Yay!" She was stopped by her mother who put her arm out in front of her. Usagi turned her head to the right to look at her mother. "What? What did I do?"
Chi-Chi laughed. "Doesn't your mother get a hug before you leave?"
Usagi giggled. "Oops, sorry mommy. I'm just so happy." Usagi let her mother pull her close to her. She wrapped her arms her mother. "Bye mommy."
Chi-Chi pulled her daughter away from her and looked into her eyes. "Now, don't be getting yourself in anymore trouble, ok?" Usagi nodded. "Ok, be good." Chi-Chi stood up and walked to the counter. She grabbed a pink bag and handed it to Usagi. "Here you go sweetie. This is your lunch." She picked Usagi's book bag up off the ground and put it in. She noticed Usagi's training gear. "So you are training after school today, Usagi?"
Usagi nodded. "Yep."
Goku grabbed his daughter by her arm and pulled her away from Chi-Chi. "Sorry Chi-Chi, but we have to leave now if we want to make it on time." He grabbed Usagi's book bag from Chi-Chi.
"Ok, I love you Usagi." Chi-Chi stood up to start picking up the mess that Goku had made when he was eating, as she watched her daughter walk away from her.
Usagi turned her head to her mother as her father was pushing her out of the kitchen. "I love you too mommy." Usagi was incredibly happy now. Everything was perfect in her eyes. Her mother wasn't mad at her now, and she was going to get her Dragon Ball back. She hoped.
~*~*~
Once outside, Goku let go of Usagi. "Ok Usagi, let's get you into training mode ok?" Goku held Usagi's bag out for her to take from him.
Usagi grabbed her bag and put on her back. "Wow, this is a lot heavier with my training stuff in it."
Goku hadn't thought of that before. "That's actually a good thing. Instead of having all of the extra weight distributed all over your body, you just have it all piled on your back. It will help you with your flying."
Usagi groaned. She didn't even want to think of flying with all of the weight on her back, weighing her down. "Do I have to?"
Goku frowned at his daughter. "Do you have to ask?"
Usagi sighed. "No, you are gonna make me do it anyways huh?" She knew the answer to that question.
Goku nodded. "Ok, let's go. Try to get a higher altitude today. I know it may be hard at first, but it's actually good training for you." Goku jumped in the air and turned around to make sure the Usagi did the same.
Usagi looked up in the air. She wasn't sure how well she would do, but she wasn't going to give up just yet. She hadn't come this far just to give up. She quickly concentrated her energy into flying as she jumped to the air. She hadn't quite made it up as far as her father had. She looked up again. "I can't do it. It's too high."
Goku looked down. "You can do it. Come on, just put more energy into it." Goku began to slowly move forward hoping that Usagi would follow.
Usagi took a deep breath and tried using more of her energy. Slowly, she began to rise higher in the air until she was at the same height as her father. She smiled. "Yay! I did it."
Goku flew backwards as he watched his daughter. "Good job, Usagi. Now, let's go." He turned around and flew faster towards their destination.
Usagi flew as fast as she could. It wasn't as fast as her father was travelling, but it was still quite fast for a beginner. She was falling behind. "Daddy, wait, don't leave me!"
Goku stopped and turned around. He didn't want to have another situation where Usagi was left on her own. He would have to treat this the same way he had when she was running. "Sorry Usagi. I'll go at your pace." Goku waited for his daughter to catch up to him.
Usagi decided to use more energy so she could speed up a little. She stopped when she got to her father. "I think I figured out how to go faster."
"Use more energy?"
Usagi nodded. "Yep."
Goku turned back in the direction of the city. "Shall we continue then?"
Usagi was more than ready to leave. "Of course." This time she didn't wait for her father to start. She shot out in front of him and went at an incredibly fast speed.
Goku watched his daughter in awe. 'How can she learn THAT fast? It's amazing.' Goku stopped thinking and gave himself a burst of speed to catch up to his daughter.
~*~*~
When they got to the city Goku stopped, Usagi did not. "Usagi, stop." Usagi looked over her shoulder with her eyes. Then she looked back in front of her and grinned. Goku didn't know what she thought she was doing. He had just told her to stop and yet she chose not to. "Usagi, I said STOP!"
Usagi cringed when she heard her father use this tone of voice. It was almost as if he was scolding her. She stopped in a flash and turned around.
Goku put his hands on his waist. "No come here."
Usagi slowly flew back to her father. She knew she was going to get it this time. She looked up at him with her innocent face. "Yes?"
Goku looked down at her. It was so hard to stay mad at her for too long. "I told you to stop. Why didn't you listen to me the first time?"
Usagi shrugged her shoulders. "Because I didn't want to stop. I was having too much fun." Usagi didn't want to take Nimbus anymore.
Goku smiled. "Why didn't you just say so? I'll let you keep going if you would like." He began to fly again, only this time at a faster pace then before. Usagi grinned as she flew towards her father. When she caught up to him she rammed herself into him. Goku looked over at his daughter. "What are you doing Usagi?"
Usagi looked over to her father with a grin still on her face. "I'll race you daddy."
Goku smirked. 'This is going to be easy.' "I accept your challenge. But be warned, I always win." With that Goku darted out in front of Usagi.
Usagi used more of her energy to increase her speed. She kept up with her father. "So you always win do you? Looks like I'm keeping up with you."
Goku looked over at Usagi. 'How can she do that?' "Not for long." He raised his power level and laughed. Usagi knew what he was doing and couldn't believe it. He would cheat just to win. Before he increased his speed she grabbed onto his legs. Goku looked back at Usagi. "Let's see how long you can keep that up." He turned his head back around and increased his speed to his fullest. 'This is actually a good strength exercise."
Usagi held on for dear life. She had never gone so fast in her entire life. She took one of her hands of his feet and grabbed his upper leg with in. She did the same with her other hand. She slowly did this until she made her way up to his back. She rested her chin on his shoulder as she lay on his back. "Hi daddy. This is fun."
Goku shot a glance at Usagi and then quickly looked forward again. He smiled to himself. "Hi Usagi. It's so nice of you to join me up here." 'How could she have done that at THIS speed? She really will surpass me if she keeps this up.'
~*~*~
Goku landed in front of Usagi's school at 7:30, a half-hour before it started. He landed in the bus drop off zone in front of the school. "Here we are."
Usagi jumped off of her father's back. She looked around at all of the screaming kids. She was reminded of the first day of school. This time she was going to do things right. She looked up at her father. "Thank you daddy." She hugged her father and ran to the school. She was stopped by her thoughts. She turned around. Her father had just jumped in the air to take off as she waved for him to come back down.
Goku lowered himself back down to the ground. "What did you forget?"
Usagi walked back to her father. "Umm… Can you be here a little later than usual after school? I want to get my work from the past two weeks." Usagi was lying. She knew that she wouldn't have any work. She was only in kindergarten. The only thing that she may have is a few papers to get signed by her parents.
Goku knew there was something going on in her mind. "Usagi, you aren't planning on getting into a fight with Haruka after school are you?"
Usagi's eye's widened. 'How does he know?' "Uh…umm…no."
Goku crossed his arms. "Come on Usagi. Tell me the truth."
Usagi squirmed. Why was he doing this to her? "Well…uh…not exactly anyways." She looked into her father's eyes for approval.
Goku frowned. "Usagi, what did I tell you about controlling your anger. I didn't teach you how to fight just so you could go and pick fights with the other kids. The only time that you are to fight, is when you are defending yourself, understand?" Usagi hesitated to answer. She looked away. Goku knew it was hard for her. "Usagi!"
Usagi shot her attention back up at her father's face. "Yes. I understand."
Goku could see that she didn't. "Please Usagi. I know you don't understand the importance of what I'm saying right now, but believe me, one day, you will."
Usagi had hoped that she would, because right now she was as confused as ever. She didn't know what the point to learning how to fight was, if she could never do it unless she was sparring with one of her friends. "I'm sorry daddy. I won't fight anyone unless I have to." This would put a crimp on her plans.
"Don't be sorry. Just be smart for your own sake. I have to leave now. I'll be back later. Bye." Goku jumped in the air and flew away. He would be back later, but he wouldn't let Usagi know when he got there. He wanted to see what she had planned.
Usagi was once again left alone at school. She rubbed her hands together. "What should I do first? Who shall I visit first?" Usagi looked to the right where the kindergarten wing was, and then to the left where all the other classes were. She was certain that Haruka and Michiru would be there. "Well, I guess I should get MY Dragon Ball back now." She happily skipped to her left and into through the gates that made the entrance to the older kids' playground.
~*~*~
Minako and Makoto had already found each other in their own playground and were talking about their training. Minako had just chased away a group of kids who were making fun of her. "So, Makoto, have you seen Usagi since she passed out?"
Makoto shook her head. "Nope. She looked pretty bad. I wonder if she will be here today."
Minako grinned. "Don't worry, she will be. She wouldn't pass up getting her Dragon Ball back for anything in the world. I'll bet she's already here and just trying to find Haruka and Michiru." Minako walked towards the gate that led into the main courtyard of the school.
Makoto followed. "Where are we going Minako?" They walked out of the gates and across the courtyard.
Minako looked at her friend. "We're going to find Usagi. I just know she's already here."
~*~*~
Usagi walked deep into the playground. She couldn't find Haruka or Michiru anywhere. She sighed out of disappointment. "Great. Just great."
"What's the matter little Monkey Girl? Did you forget where your class is?"
Usagi knew that voice. She turned around and stood face to face with Haruka. "Haruka! Give me back my Dragon Ball!"
Haruka frowned. She grabbed Usagi by the front of her uniform. "Don't ever talk to me like that again. You hear that?" She pushed Usagi to the ground and turned to a group of girls who stood behind her. "Look girls. It's the monkey. She has come back for another beating.
Usagi stood up. She didn't feel the fall. She had been through much worse than that with her father and Vejita. She smirked. "Is that all you've got?"
Haruka turned back to Usagi. "You want more? I'll give you more. Just wait a minute. I have something in my pocket that I don't want to break." She put her hand into the pocket on her jacket and dug around for something. When she finally found what she was looking for she pulled it out and held it up for Usagi to see.
Usagi stared very carefully at the item in Haruka's hand. "That's mine."
Haruka stopped looking at the ball in her hand. "If it's yours, why is it in my possession?" Haruka rubbed her hand over the ball.
Usagi didn't take her eye off of the ball. "You stole it."
A shocked expression appeared on Haruka's face. "You would dare to accuse me of such a dirty thing? Well that's it girl. I kicked your ass before, I can do it again." She threw the ball to Michiru, who stood behind her to the side.
Usagi remembered what her father just told her. She wasn't supposed to fight unless it was to defend herself. "I don't want to fight you, Haruka." That was the truth too. She didn't really want to fight her until they could do it after school, in the main courtyard, where someone was sure to see Haruka throw the first punch.
Haruka laughed. "What's wrong? Does the little chicken monkey want to run away again?" She turned to her friends. "Even her dad is a wimp. He's dumb too. I told him I didn't have the ball, and he believed me." The group of girls laughed as Haruka looked back at Usagi. "I bet everyone in your monkey family are wimps too."
Usagi could feel her energy build up inside her. She wanted to take her out right then and there, but if she did, her father would be disappointed in her. She hated it when he was. "My family is the strongest family in the world."
Michiru was cracking up. "Yeah, and mine is the richest in the world." She put the Dragon Ball in her book bag.
Usagi clenched her hands into fists. "Shut up. I'm stronger than you'll ever be."
Michiru stopped laughing for a short moment. "Man, if you're strong, I'd hate to see a weak person."
Haruka looked back at her friend. "Good one Michiru."
"Why don't you leave Usagi alone!"
Haruka turned around to see two familiar faces. "Ahhhh, yes, I remember you. Makoto isn't it? Didn't I beat you up about a month ago?"
Makoto growled at Haruka. She hated to admit that she was beaten by a person in a lower class then her. "Yeah, so what? You wouldn't be able to do it now." She smirked. "I've been training with some very powerful people."
Haruka laughed. "Ooooh, powerful people, I'm scared." She got right up in Makoto's face. "They may be powerful, but you are not."
Makoto frowned. She didn't have to take this from her. She made a fist and was about to hit Haruka when she felt Usagi's hand grab her arm. She looked over to Usagi. "What are you doing Usagi. We can take them out, and get your Dragon Ball back."
Usagi shook her head. "No Makoto."
Makoto studied Usagi's face very carefully. She saw a plan in her eyes. "All right, have it your way."
Usagi smiled and then turned around to Haruka. "We have to get to class. We WILL continue this after school, in the main courtyard."
Haruka didn't like the way Usagi was trying to order her around. "Oh, we will, will we? I don't think so." She began to walk away.
Usagi had to think of a way to get Haruka to meet her after school. It was her only chance. She put her hands up to her mouth. "Well you know what? Who's the wimp now? I think I just beat you without having to lift a finger you big bully!" That got Haruka's attention.
Haruka turned around. "What did you say? I'm not a wimp! You're on! I'll meet you after school. Prepare yourselves to get beaten up, AGAIN!" Haruka laughed as she turned around and walked away. Michiru followed closely behind.
Minako looked to her friend. "Usagi? Do you know what you're doing?"
Usagi kept her eyes on Haruka and smirked. "Don't worry Minako." She put her arm around her neck. "I have a plan that is sure to work." The three girls turned around and walked back to their class.
~*~*~
Usagi, Makoto, and Minako barely made it to class on time. Usagi and Minako ran to their table in the back of the room and sat down. Makoto followed and sat across the table from Minako. "Wow, this is so cool. We sit at the same table."
Usagi pulled out a pencil and paper and began to draw a picture of a cat. "Yeah I know. It's going to be fun this year."
Minako looked down at the picture. Usagi had drawn a strange shape on the cat's forehead. "Usagi, why did you draw that moon looking figure on the cat?"
Usagi put her pencil down and started rummaging around her bag until she found her box of crayons. She looked at the picture as she pulled out her black crayon. "It's the cat from my dreams."
Makoto looked at the picture and then back at Usagi. "You dreamt about a cat with a moon on it's head" She found that to be a little strange.
Usagi colored the cat's body black. "I didn't dream about the cat. It was just in my dream." When she was finished coloring with the black crayon she put it back in the box and pulled out the yellow crayon.
Minako looked at the drawing of the cat. It was a very cute drawing. "What was the dream about?" She watched as Usagi began applying the yellow color to the moon on the cat's forehead.
Usagi shrugged. "I don't really remember. All I know is that there was this cat running to me." Usagi had dreamt about it about three months ago.
Miss Haruna interrupted their conversation. "Hello Minako, Usagi. It's nice to have you back with us. I see you've met your table partner, Makoto. She joined us the day after you left." She looked down at Usagi's drawing. "Oh what a cute little kitty. You are a good artist Usagi."
Minako looked at her teacher. "It's a cat from Usagi's dream."
Miss Haruna looked up at Minako and then back down at the picture. "Usagi, would you mind if I hung it up here in the classroom?" Usagi shook her head. "Great." Miss Haruna picked up the picture and hung it up by the door.
Makoto looked around to make sure that no one was around. "So, Usagi what's this plan of yours to get your Dragon Ball back and repay Haruka and Michiru?" She was so anxious to hear it. She couldn't wait any longer then she already had.
Usagi grinned. "Well, you see, my daddy told me only to fight if we are defending ourselves. So, That's what we will do. We will make Haruka and Michiru try to beat us up. Then when they do, we can move in. We won't hurt them though. I don't want to be like them. If we do it in front of the office, then someone may see them trying to beat us up before we even have to do anything. What do you guys think?" She looked around to her friends.
Minako liked the idea. "That sounds good Usagi, but, knowing those two, we may just have to hurt them."
Makoto thought for a moment. "Minako is right. They don't give up easily. They can take a real beating before they stop. That's how they beat me when I was fighting them in my class. I'm in a higher class then them too." Makoto had always wanted to get back at them for it.
"But I don't want to hurt them." 'Daddy wouldn't hurt them if he didn't have to.'
~*~*~
Haruka sat in front of the principal's office waiting to be called in. She didn't know what she was in trouble for THIS time. She hadn't done anything since she got back.
Mrs. Willings' door slammed open. "Miss Tenno!"
Haruka stood up and walked into the office. She sat down in the chair that sat in front of Mrs. Willings' desk. "What am I here for? I haven't done anything."
Mrs. Willings sat down in her chair and stared at Haruka. "Please Miss Tenno. Let me conduct this meeting. After all, I am the one who called you down here."
Haruka rolled her eyes. "Fine." She got comfortable in the chair.
Mrs. Willings pulled out a thick folder and set in on her desk. "Haruka, we have a problem here. You are the only person who is a regular in this office." Haruka snorted. "I know you never take anything I say seriously, but school isn't a game. It isn't a place for you to beat up on others."
Haruka put her feet on Mrs. Willings desk. She looked her in the eye. "It is to me."
Mrs. Willings could feel herself getting angry. "Don't talk like that to me young lady. I'm not the person you want to be talking to like that." She stood up and picked Haruka's feet, dropped them to the floor, and then sat down. "We have a complaint from Son Goku. Usagi's father. You remember Usagi don't you?"
Haruka smirked. "Yeah, I remember her. She's that little pipsqueak I beat up. So what's she complaining about now?"
Mrs. Willings glared at Haruka. She hated her attitude. "Well it seems as though you have something of hers. What did he call it? Oh yes, a Dragon Ball."
Haruka knew that he would go to the principal. Her family was a bunch of whiners who couldn't solve their own problems. "I don't have it."
Mrs. Willings raised her eyebrow. "You don't have it?"
Haruka nodded. "I don't have it. Why is that so hard for you to understand?"
Mrs. Willings stood up. "So if we searched you for it, we wouldn't find anything?"
Haruka shook her head. Luckily, she had given the ball to Michiru that morning. "Not a thing." She stood up and stepped to the side of her chair. "Go ahead. Search me all that you want." She was challenging Mrs. Willings.
Mrs. Willings searched Haruka's bag and person only to find nothing. Haruka grinned. "See, I told you. But no one believes me."
Mrs. Willings sat back down at he desk. She knew that Haruka had it somewhere. She probably had it at home, but there was nothing more that she could do. She felt sorry for Usagi. She had tried to get the Dragon Ball back, but she failed. "You can leave now Haruka."
~*~*~
At lunch, Usagi, Minako, and Makoto ate lunch on the playground. They sat on a bench, which sat next to the swing set. Usagi pulled out her drink. She was dying of thirst. "So, did you guys bring your training cloths?" She opened her drink and took a big gulp of it.
Minako pulled out he lunch bag. "I did." She turned to Makoto.
"Of course I did. I've had to for the past week, remember? While you guys got to relax during the day last week, I have had to come to school and deal with these retards who call themselves humans?"
Usagi looked at Makoto. She didn't quite understand what she was trying to say. "Makoto? Have they been making fu…"
A group of boys walked up to the three girls. One grabbed Minako's lunch bag and threw it on the ground. "Hey freaks. How did you like getting yourselves beaten up?" He laughed as he stepped on the bag, which he had just thrown on the ground.
Minako stood up. "Why don't you get out of my face before I loose my temper and show you what it felt like." Usagi stood up beside her friend ready to help her if she needed it.
The dusty blonde hair kid laughed. "Stupid girl." He slapped her in the face. "Women shouldn't talk to men that way. We are superior to you."
Minako was shocked at the treatment she had just received. She wasn't going to take that from him. "Well, you aren't a man." She made a fist and hit him in the stomach forcing him to fall to the ground.
The kid grabbed his stomach. "What are you? You really are a freak if you can hit that hard." He looked to Usagi and smirked as he stood up. "Hey, look fellas. It's Monkey Girl."
Usagi could feel herself tense up. "Don't ever, EVER call me that again! If you do, there will be trouble."
The dusty blonde kid got up in her face and laughed as loud as he could. Makoto laughed too. "Obviously he didn't learn his lesson when Minako hit him."
Usagi smirked. "Yeah, maybe he will learn it better from me." Right when she was about to knee him she thought of what her father told her about fighting. She put her knee back onto the ground. She couldn't hit him and not feel guilty about it. He had not hit her yet. "You know what? I'm going to let you off easy today. Instead of demonstrating it on you, my friends and I will just show you instead."
Minako looked over at her friend. "Usagi, he deserves it."
Usagi cupped her hands. "No, he didn't hit me. Daddy says to only fight when the other person starts it first. Come on, let me show them what I can really do to them. I won't make it big." Minako took one look at Usagi's hands and knew exactly what she was talking about. Usagi began concentrating her energy into her hands and a little golden ball formed between them. The group of boys stood in awe as the rest of the kids gathered around to watch what she was doing. "Ready Minako?" Minako nodded. With that, Usagi released her energy ball at Minako.
Minako watched as the blast came rushing towards her. Right before it hit her, she kicked it into the air. Usagi decided to have little bit of fun so she jumped into the air and followed it up high into the sky. Minako put her hand to her forehead to block her eyes from the sun, as did all of the other children at lunch. "Wow, look Makoto, she can fly better then us."
A girl with two pigtails walked up behind Minako as she too watched Usagi fly higher and higher into the sky. "You mean, you guys can fly?"
Makoto could barely fly forward without staggering let alone fly fast like Usagi. "Yeah, her dad has been training us. I guess Usagi learned faster than us."
Usagi flew up above the blast. She put her hands together to make one big fist and hit the ball of energy back down to Minako like a volleyball. "Incoming!"
Makoto knew that, even though the ball was small, it had a lot of force behind it. If it was left to fall it could hurt someone, even Minako or herself. Right before the ball hit, she jumped up as high as she could and kicked it away from the school. It crashed into a tree. "Good job Usagi. That was cool."
Usagi landed and everyone crowded around her. They all wanted to know how she did that. "You guys, I'm not talking to you." She crossed her arms and closed her eyes. "You all said that I was a freak, now beat it!" Usagi pushed her way out of the crowd and sat down on the bench again.
The crowd of kids followed. The boy who had teased her walked up to her. "We take it back. You aren't a freak. Now, tell us how you did that."
Usagi looked up at the boy. "NO!"
The boy turned around to the crowd of kids that stood behind him. "She isn't going to tell us. Let's just leave the…" He turned his head back to Usagi, "FREAK alone." He laughed and walked away.
Makoto and Minako sat back down on the bench. Makoto took out her sandwich that her mother had packed for her. "Why didn't you talk to them Usagi? They were being nice to you for a change."
Usagi laughed. "You think I want to be their friends after the way they treated me? You have got to be kidding. Just knowing that I can beat them up if I wanted to is good enough for me. And besides, I already have two best friends." Usagi smiled as she looked over at Minako and Makoto.
~*~*~
After school Usagi and her friends rushed to the bathrooms so they could get themselves changed. They didn't want to make Haruka and Michiru think that they had chickened out. Usagi pulled her blue GI out of her bag and put it on. Then she pulled out her gray metal boots and slid them on her feet. They went all the way to her knees. She walked to the mirror and looked at herself. She was a true fighter now. She smiled to herself and then turned around. Minako and Makoto stood behind her. "Today is the day that we have all been waiting for, for a long time. We all have a reason to hate Haruka and Michiru, and now we can humiliate them. Girls," Usagi smirked. "Let's go."
Minako and Makoto threw their fists in the air. "Yeah!"
~*~*~
Haruka and Michiru impatiently waited for the three "freaks", as they put it. Haruka tossed the Dragon Ball from hand to hand as she waited. "Where are they? They said that they would be here. I want to beat them up and then leave. I'm getting really annoyed."
"We are right here Haruka!" Usagi stood tall with her arms on her waist. She wore a frown on her face.
Haruka turned around and carefully examined Usagi's outfit. "What are you guys supposed to be? Some sort of martial arts specialists?"
If Usagi could have frowned harder she would have. She hated Haruka and wanted to take her out, right then and there. "Give me my Dragon Ball back Haruka, before I am forced to come and take it from you." Usagi readied herself.
Haruka laughed. "You think you can take this from me? I'd like to see you try. Last time, I beat your ass into the ground. I will gladly do it again if you would like me to."
"Why don't you try me and see what happens?" Usagi didn't know what she was saying. It was like she didn't have any control over what came out of her mouth. She turned back and looked into the office to see if anyone was watching.
~*~*~*
Little did Usagi know that she had a spectator. Goku sat behind a bush and quietly watched what was going on. He knew that Haruka had the ball. He could see it being tossed around in her hands. He decided he would wait to intervene. He wanted to see if Usagi could restrain herself from fighting for it. She wasn't doing too well of a job so far. He had told Usagi not to fight unless it was for defense. What he forgot to tell her was that she wasn't supposed to challenge either.
Goku hated to just sit by and watch his daughter get teased and he knew that she hated it too. She seemed to be holding up on her own though.
~*~*~
Haruka stopped tossing the Dragon Ball from hand to hand and began tossing the ball up in the air. "You know, you had better watch what you're saying monkey girl. I may just take you up on it one of these days." She threw the ball back to Michiru and walked up to Makoto. "Come on kid, let's have a rematch. Right here, right now!"
Makoto was very tempted to fight her. She got in her fighting stance. "I WILL beat you this time." She felt a hand on her shoulder. She turned around to see that it was Usagi's hand. "Usagi?"
Haruka frowned. She was getting really tired of Usagi trying to keep peace. "Look monkey girl. I'm getting tired of you always interfering. You aren't getting your stupid Dragon Ball back and that's final." Haruka raised her leg and kicked Usagi in the face, forcing her to fall to the ground.
Usagi pushed her body up with her hands. She let her head hang down to the ground as she tried to get the blur out of her eyes. She could see well enough to see her blood dripping from her mouth onto her hand.
Haruka laughed as she walked up to Usagi. "Here we go again. Does this seem familiar." She kicked Usagi in the stomach. "Oh yes, this reminds me of the time that I kicked the crap out of you so badly last time." Usagi fell flat on her face again.
~*~*~
Goku cringed with every kick that his daughter had to endure. He could feel her pain.
~*~*~
Makoto couldn't take it anymore. She couldn't just stand around and watch her friend get beaten up. "Why you little..." She ran for Haruka with her hands in front of her.
Haruka turned around and saw Makoto running for her. "You guys just never learn do you?"
Usagi stood up and wrapped her arms around Haruka. "Give me my Dragon Ball." She tightened her grip on Haruka. Usagi could feel her anger building up within herself.
Haruka saw that Makoto stopped running for her. She looked over her shoulder to the girl who was squeezing her. "I will never give it back to you, you stupid monkey freak!" Usagi squeezed even harder. "AAAHHH! What are you some kind of freak."
Usagi didn't let go of Haruka. "I'll say it once more, give me my Dragon Ball BACK NOW!"
Haruka cried out in pain. "Michiru! Run! Don't let them have it. They are just stupid freaks! They don't deserve it." Michiru listened to her friend and tried to make a run for it.
Usagi was not about to loose her Dragon Ball again. She let go of Haruka and let her fall to the ground. She quickly turned to Minako and Makoto, "Watch her!" With that she chased Michiru into the parking lot.
Michiru ran as fast as she could. She looked behind her. Usagi was hot on her tail. She couldn't let herself get caught. If she did, Usagi would beat her up like she did Haruka. "Stay away from me you demon child!" She turned back around.
"Give me my Dragon Ball!" Usagi jumped in the air. She could fly faster then she could run. 'I WILL have my Dragon Ball back'
Michiru looked behind her again. She was surprised to see that Usagi was no longer behind her. She slowed down and eventually stopped. She panted heavily as she turned back around. "Oh my god! How did you do that!?" Michiru was startled by Usagi, who now stood right in front of her.
Usagi laughed. "That's my little secret." She held out her hand and approached Michiru. "You have something of mine and I want it back."
Michiru backed up as Usagi came closer. She fumbled around in her coat pocket until she found the Dragon Ball. She pulled it out of her pocket and placed it in Usagi's hands. "Please don't hurt me." Michiru was scared of Usagi. She had never seen anyone, especially a 5-year old, be able to make Haruka cry out like she had.
Usagi smiled. "Thank you. Now you see, that wasn't so hard now was it?" She walked past Michiru and then ran back to her friends who were holding Haruka by the arms. "Ok you guys, you can let her go now. I got my Dragon Ball back." Usagi held it up for her friends to see. It shined in the bright sunlight. Usagi was proud of herself. Learning to fight had really paid off in the end. It made her stronger, and it brought up her self-esteem.
Makoto looked at the ball. "Wow, it's beautiful Usagi."
Minako looked over at their hostage. "What do you want us to do with her?"
Usagi took her attention off of her Dragon Ball and looked at Haruka. She looked really scared. Usagi laughed. After everything that Haruka had done to her, she finally gotten her back. "Let her go. She has nothing that I want anymore."
Makoto couldn't believe that Usagi was just going to let her go without doing anything to her. "But after everything that she's done to you…don't you want to get even?"
Usagi shrugged. "I guess I have a few things I want to say to her." She walked in front of Haruka and bent down so she would be eye level with her. "Now then, you will never call me "Monkey Girl" again. You will never tease me again, and you will never touch MY Dragon Ball ever again." She stood up. "Ok, I'm through."
Makoto wasn't going to just let it go at that. She made a fist and punched her in the stomach. "Ok, I'm happy. You can go now."
Makoto and Minako released their grip on Haruka and let her fall to the ground. They all laughed at her as she slowly crawled away.
"Usagi…"
Usagi turned around when she heard her father call her name. She ran up to him and jumped in his arms and wrapped her tail around his arm. "Look daddy. I got my Dragon Ball back." The other two girls walked up to the two Saiyans.
Goku looked his daughter in the eyes. He knew that she was pleased with herself. "I know, I watched the whole thing. You handled yourself very well out there. There were many times when I was sure that you were going to loose it and start throwing punches."
Usagi was confused. "But daddy, you told me not to unless it was in defense, so I didn't."
Goku didn't know what to say. He didn't want his daughter to think that he didn't trust her. "Well I know, but many fighters loose their cool when they are being taunted."
Usagi started to understand. "Oh. Have you ever 'lost your cool' daddy." Usagi leaned her head against his shoulder. She had worn herself out.
"I'm sorry to say that I have. But I don't ever want you to. The results can be horrible." He looked down at Makoto. "You are just lucky she didn't have any strength left to strike back at you."
Makoto blushed. She was embarrassed. "I'm sorry Goku. I won't let it happen again."
Goku rubbed his hand on his daughter's back. "It's alright Makoto." He looked around at all of the girls. "You guys look tired."
Usagi yawned. "We are. Well, I know I am."
"Why don't I give you guys today off. You have had a long day. But on one condition. You have to fly home." He set Usagi down on the ground.
She looked at her friends and then back up at her father. "I think we can deal with that, right girls?"
Makoto and Minako nodded in agreeance. "Hear that daddy? You have a deal."
Goku smiled as he jumped in the air. "All right, let's get you guys home then." He began flying to his destination. Usagi and her friends followed him into the air.
(::puff, Wheeze:: gees writing a 15 page chapter really does take a lot out of a person. lol. So, what do you think? I finally finished chapter one and chapter two part one should be out on Monday. I told you this was going to be a long story. I would get it Chapter 2 Part 1 out tomorrow, but, with tomorrow being Easter, my parents want me to go to a family get together. Oh yeah, a little note from me. Some of you are asking if Ami and Rei will be in the story. Don't worry, they will be in the story soon. I already have the perfect place to put both of them in. And early in this part I wrote a part about Usagi having a dream about a black cat with a crescent moon on it's forehead, I realize that it's too early for her to be Sailor Moon. Don't worry about that either. She isn't Sailor Moon yet nor will she find out about it until she is older. I just like to set up my story so I can write a good one. I hate stories that have wholes in the plot line. Ok, enough from me, What do you think about this part? Was it good? Was it bad? Please review and tell me. Thank you ^_~)
Usagi jumped out of her bed. Although, she didn't particularly feel like going to school that day, knowing that she could stand up to her bullies was motivation enough to get her out of bed. She walked out of her room. She looked across the dark living room and saw one of her parents just coming out of their room. She walked farther into the room. She couldn't quite make out who it was so she walked to a small table that sat by the sofa and turned on a lamp that sat on it. The light revealed the figure as her father. "Daddy?"
Goku looked up and saw his daughter standing pretty much right in front of him. "Oh, hi Usagi. I see your alarm went off on time."
Usagi walked across the room and flipped a switch. A light on the ceiling turned on and lit the whole room. She looked to her father. "You were the one who set my alarm?"
Goku nodded. "Yep. We have to get an early start." Goku walked to a pantry in the hall and pulled a towel out.
Usagi followed him down the hall. "Why?"
Goku pulled out two towels. One for him, and the other for Usagi. He handed Usagi her towel. "Because, you may be going to school, but that doesn't mean your training stops. Now, you will be like Makoto. You will still have to train after school. But before school, I want you to practice flying. So you will fly to the outskirts of the city, and then we can take Nimbus the rest of the way until you are able to fly the whole way."
Usagi hadn't thought of that before. "That's a good idea." She grabbed the towel that her father held out to her. "Should I bring my training gear?"
Goku nodded. "Yes, we will train directly after school. Just stuff it in your book bag or something. We should stop talking so you can get ready." The two began to walk back up the hallway. Before they left each other, Goku turned to his daughter. "Now I don't want to get a phone call today saying that you got into a fight again, ok?" Usagi didn't say anything. "Ok, Usagi?"
Usagi innocently looked up at her father and put her hands behind her back. "Ok daddy." She watched him turn around and walk back into his room. 'Hehehe, it depends. I WILL get my Dragon Ball back no matter what.' Usagi turned around and skipped off to her bathroom.
She took her bath relatively fast. She pretty much only washed her hair since she hadn't the night before. She wanted to get ready as fast as possible so she could leave sooner. She wanted to allow herself as much time as possible to fly to the city.
When she was done taking her bath, she wrapped herself in her towel and drained to tub. She began to walk to the door of the bathroom but was sidetracked by her reflection in the mirror. "I wonder if I'm as strong as daddy and Gohan say I am." With that she held up her arms to the mirror. She was amazed at what she saw. "Cool, I have some muscle. It's probably from all the weighted cloths and exercising I've been doing lately." She smiled to herself. 'I can't wait until later.' Usagi relaxed her arm. She didn't understand why the muscles in her arm only appeared when she flexed. She shrugged and left the bathroom.
She noticed her mother coming out of her room. Had she been in there to wake her up? "Hi mommy."
Chi-Chi turned to look at her daughter. "Oh hi sweetie. I just put your uniform in your room. I washed it for you." She turned around and started walking down the hall. "I'm making breakfast now so hurry up. Your father will be waiting."
Usagi watched her mother walk down the hall. She was happy. Her mother hadn't even mentioned the night before. She now knew that she was no longer angry with her. She quickly remembered that she had to get ready for school and ran for her room.
Usagi saw her school uniform sitting on her bed. She picked it up and looked at it. All of the dirt had been washed out of it from the day of the fight. She began to think of the fight. She didn't want to fight again. Usagi had the upper hand this time but she still didn't want to fight. She didn't want to get suspended again. There had to be another way then fighting. Usagi would try talking to Haruka before she made her decision. She began to get herself dressed and put her hair up in her usual hairstyle.
~*~*~
When Usagi walked into the kitchen her mother was just serving her father his food. She sat in her chair across the table from her father. "Hi guys."
Goku was eating before Chi-Chi had even finished putting food on his plate. He looked up to see his daughter sitting across the table from him like she always had. "Hi Usagi. You seem happy this morning."
Usagi got her own food. She didn't have time to wait for her mother to do it. "I am." Usagi felt like she was starting her first day of school. In a way she was but this time it was going to be done right. She wasn't going to let anyone pick on her. She would tell them just what she thought about them if they tried anything with her. "When do we leave?" Usagi couldn't wait to go fly again. She hadn't done it since Saturday. She also couldn't wait to see Minako and Makoto. She hadn't seen them since Thursday.
Goku was on his third helping. "When we are finished eating."
Chi-Chi sat down at the table in between the two Saiyans. She looked at her daughter who was eating quite fast. "Usagi, slow down. You don't have to rush. You are going to make yourself sick. Don't forget what happened the last time that you rushed like this. You were as sick as a dog."
Usagi slowed down a bit. Her mother was right about that. She didn't want to go through something like that again. She was sick to her stomach for a whole day. She began to eat at her normal pace again. She was just so excited and she wanted to leave as soon as possible.
Goku served himself his fifth helping. "Don't worry Usagi, I'm nearly finished."
Chi-Chi looked at the dish of food that she had set out on the table and then back at her husband. "That's because there is nothing left."
Goku laughed as he scratched his head. "Well what do ya know. I ate it all again. I hope neither of you wanted more."
Chi-Chi playfully glared at her husband. "You are just lucky that I don't want any." She looked at Usagi who was already finished and waiting. "I don't think Usagi has any complaints either. You just want to leave don't you?"
Usagi nodded. She jumped down off of her chair and went to stand by her father. She rested her head on the table and began to stare at him while he was eating.
Goku could feel her eyes on him. He turned to look at her. "What?"
Usagi grabbed his arm and tugged on it. "Can we PLEEEESE go daddy?" She couldn't stand it anymore. The anxiety was killing her. Her mood about going back to school had changed a considerably large amount since the night before.
Goku laughed at his daughter and then looked at his bowl of food. It was nearly empty. He looked back down at Usagi who was begging him with her eyes. "All right, all right. We can go. Don't have a heart attack."
Usagi jumped up and then ran to the family room where the main door out of the house was. "Yay!" She was stopped by her mother who put her arm out in front of her. Usagi turned her head to the right to look at her mother. "What? What did I do?"
Chi-Chi laughed. "Doesn't your mother get a hug before you leave?"
Usagi giggled. "Oops, sorry mommy. I'm just so happy." Usagi let her mother pull her close to her. She wrapped her arms her mother. "Bye mommy."
Chi-Chi pulled her daughter away from her and looked into her eyes. "Now, don't be getting yourself in anymore trouble, ok?" Usagi nodded. "Ok, be good." Chi-Chi stood up and walked to the counter. She grabbed a pink bag and handed it to Usagi. "Here you go sweetie. This is your lunch." She picked Usagi's book bag up off the ground and put it in. She noticed Usagi's training gear. "So you are training after school today, Usagi?"
Usagi nodded. "Yep."
Goku grabbed his daughter by her arm and pulled her away from Chi-Chi. "Sorry Chi-Chi, but we have to leave now if we want to make it on time." He grabbed Usagi's book bag from Chi-Chi.
"Ok, I love you Usagi." Chi-Chi stood up to start picking up the mess that Goku had made when he was eating, as she watched her daughter walk away from her.
Usagi turned her head to her mother as her father was pushing her out of the kitchen. "I love you too mommy." Usagi was incredibly happy now. Everything was perfect in her eyes. Her mother wasn't mad at her now, and she was going to get her Dragon Ball back. She hoped.
~*~*~
Once outside, Goku let go of Usagi. "Ok Usagi, let's get you into training mode ok?" Goku held Usagi's bag out for her to take from him.
Usagi grabbed her bag and put on her back. "Wow, this is a lot heavier with my training stuff in it."
Goku hadn't thought of that before. "That's actually a good thing. Instead of having all of the extra weight distributed all over your body, you just have it all piled on your back. It will help you with your flying."
Usagi groaned. She didn't even want to think of flying with all of the weight on her back, weighing her down. "Do I have to?"
Goku frowned at his daughter. "Do you have to ask?"
Usagi sighed. "No, you are gonna make me do it anyways huh?" She knew the answer to that question.
Goku nodded. "Ok, let's go. Try to get a higher altitude today. I know it may be hard at first, but it's actually good training for you." Goku jumped in the air and turned around to make sure the Usagi did the same.
Usagi looked up in the air. She wasn't sure how well she would do, but she wasn't going to give up just yet. She hadn't come this far just to give up. She quickly concentrated her energy into flying as she jumped to the air. She hadn't quite made it up as far as her father had. She looked up again. "I can't do it. It's too high."
Goku looked down. "You can do it. Come on, just put more energy into it." Goku began to slowly move forward hoping that Usagi would follow.
Usagi took a deep breath and tried using more of her energy. Slowly, she began to rise higher in the air until she was at the same height as her father. She smiled. "Yay! I did it."
Goku flew backwards as he watched his daughter. "Good job, Usagi. Now, let's go." He turned around and flew faster towards their destination.
Usagi flew as fast as she could. It wasn't as fast as her father was travelling, but it was still quite fast for a beginner. She was falling behind. "Daddy, wait, don't leave me!"
Goku stopped and turned around. He didn't want to have another situation where Usagi was left on her own. He would have to treat this the same way he had when she was running. "Sorry Usagi. I'll go at your pace." Goku waited for his daughter to catch up to him.
Usagi decided to use more energy so she could speed up a little. She stopped when she got to her father. "I think I figured out how to go faster."
"Use more energy?"
Usagi nodded. "Yep."
Goku turned back in the direction of the city. "Shall we continue then?"
Usagi was more than ready to leave. "Of course." This time she didn't wait for her father to start. She shot out in front of him and went at an incredibly fast speed.
Goku watched his daughter in awe. 'How can she learn THAT fast? It's amazing.' Goku stopped thinking and gave himself a burst of speed to catch up to his daughter.
~*~*~
When they got to the city Goku stopped, Usagi did not. "Usagi, stop." Usagi looked over her shoulder with her eyes. Then she looked back in front of her and grinned. Goku didn't know what she thought she was doing. He had just told her to stop and yet she chose not to. "Usagi, I said STOP!"
Usagi cringed when she heard her father use this tone of voice. It was almost as if he was scolding her. She stopped in a flash and turned around.
Goku put his hands on his waist. "No come here."
Usagi slowly flew back to her father. She knew she was going to get it this time. She looked up at him with her innocent face. "Yes?"
Goku looked down at her. It was so hard to stay mad at her for too long. "I told you to stop. Why didn't you listen to me the first time?"
Usagi shrugged her shoulders. "Because I didn't want to stop. I was having too much fun." Usagi didn't want to take Nimbus anymore.
Goku smiled. "Why didn't you just say so? I'll let you keep going if you would like." He began to fly again, only this time at a faster pace then before. Usagi grinned as she flew towards her father. When she caught up to him she rammed herself into him. Goku looked over at his daughter. "What are you doing Usagi?"
Usagi looked over to her father with a grin still on her face. "I'll race you daddy."
Goku smirked. 'This is going to be easy.' "I accept your challenge. But be warned, I always win." With that Goku darted out in front of Usagi.
Usagi used more of her energy to increase her speed. She kept up with her father. "So you always win do you? Looks like I'm keeping up with you."
Goku looked over at Usagi. 'How can she do that?' "Not for long." He raised his power level and laughed. Usagi knew what he was doing and couldn't believe it. He would cheat just to win. Before he increased his speed she grabbed onto his legs. Goku looked back at Usagi. "Let's see how long you can keep that up." He turned his head back around and increased his speed to his fullest. 'This is actually a good strength exercise."
Usagi held on for dear life. She had never gone so fast in her entire life. She took one of her hands of his feet and grabbed his upper leg with in. She did the same with her other hand. She slowly did this until she made her way up to his back. She rested her chin on his shoulder as she lay on his back. "Hi daddy. This is fun."
Goku shot a glance at Usagi and then quickly looked forward again. He smiled to himself. "Hi Usagi. It's so nice of you to join me up here." 'How could she have done that at THIS speed? She really will surpass me if she keeps this up.'
~*~*~
Goku landed in front of Usagi's school at 7:30, a half-hour before it started. He landed in the bus drop off zone in front of the school. "Here we are."
Usagi jumped off of her father's back. She looked around at all of the screaming kids. She was reminded of the first day of school. This time she was going to do things right. She looked up at her father. "Thank you daddy." She hugged her father and ran to the school. She was stopped by her thoughts. She turned around. Her father had just jumped in the air to take off as she waved for him to come back down.
Goku lowered himself back down to the ground. "What did you forget?"
Usagi walked back to her father. "Umm… Can you be here a little later than usual after school? I want to get my work from the past two weeks." Usagi was lying. She knew that she wouldn't have any work. She was only in kindergarten. The only thing that she may have is a few papers to get signed by her parents.
Goku knew there was something going on in her mind. "Usagi, you aren't planning on getting into a fight with Haruka after school are you?"
Usagi's eye's widened. 'How does he know?' "Uh…umm…no."
Goku crossed his arms. "Come on Usagi. Tell me the truth."
Usagi squirmed. Why was he doing this to her? "Well…uh…not exactly anyways." She looked into her father's eyes for approval.
Goku frowned. "Usagi, what did I tell you about controlling your anger. I didn't teach you how to fight just so you could go and pick fights with the other kids. The only time that you are to fight, is when you are defending yourself, understand?" Usagi hesitated to answer. She looked away. Goku knew it was hard for her. "Usagi!"
Usagi shot her attention back up at her father's face. "Yes. I understand."
Goku could see that she didn't. "Please Usagi. I know you don't understand the importance of what I'm saying right now, but believe me, one day, you will."
Usagi had hoped that she would, because right now she was as confused as ever. She didn't know what the point to learning how to fight was, if she could never do it unless she was sparring with one of her friends. "I'm sorry daddy. I won't fight anyone unless I have to." This would put a crimp on her plans.
"Don't be sorry. Just be smart for your own sake. I have to leave now. I'll be back later. Bye." Goku jumped in the air and flew away. He would be back later, but he wouldn't let Usagi know when he got there. He wanted to see what she had planned.
Usagi was once again left alone at school. She rubbed her hands together. "What should I do first? Who shall I visit first?" Usagi looked to the right where the kindergarten wing was, and then to the left where all the other classes were. She was certain that Haruka and Michiru would be there. "Well, I guess I should get MY Dragon Ball back now." She happily skipped to her left and into through the gates that made the entrance to the older kids' playground.
~*~*~
Minako and Makoto had already found each other in their own playground and were talking about their training. Minako had just chased away a group of kids who were making fun of her. "So, Makoto, have you seen Usagi since she passed out?"
Makoto shook her head. "Nope. She looked pretty bad. I wonder if she will be here today."
Minako grinned. "Don't worry, she will be. She wouldn't pass up getting her Dragon Ball back for anything in the world. I'll bet she's already here and just trying to find Haruka and Michiru." Minako walked towards the gate that led into the main courtyard of the school.
Makoto followed. "Where are we going Minako?" They walked out of the gates and across the courtyard.
Minako looked at her friend. "We're going to find Usagi. I just know she's already here."
~*~*~
Usagi walked deep into the playground. She couldn't find Haruka or Michiru anywhere. She sighed out of disappointment. "Great. Just great."
"What's the matter little Monkey Girl? Did you forget where your class is?"
Usagi knew that voice. She turned around and stood face to face with Haruka. "Haruka! Give me back my Dragon Ball!"
Haruka frowned. She grabbed Usagi by the front of her uniform. "Don't ever talk to me like that again. You hear that?" She pushed Usagi to the ground and turned to a group of girls who stood behind her. "Look girls. It's the monkey. She has come back for another beating.
Usagi stood up. She didn't feel the fall. She had been through much worse than that with her father and Vejita. She smirked. "Is that all you've got?"
Haruka turned back to Usagi. "You want more? I'll give you more. Just wait a minute. I have something in my pocket that I don't want to break." She put her hand into the pocket on her jacket and dug around for something. When she finally found what she was looking for she pulled it out and held it up for Usagi to see.
Usagi stared very carefully at the item in Haruka's hand. "That's mine."
Haruka stopped looking at the ball in her hand. "If it's yours, why is it in my possession?" Haruka rubbed her hand over the ball.
Usagi didn't take her eye off of the ball. "You stole it."
A shocked expression appeared on Haruka's face. "You would dare to accuse me of such a dirty thing? Well that's it girl. I kicked your ass before, I can do it again." She threw the ball to Michiru, who stood behind her to the side.
Usagi remembered what her father just told her. She wasn't supposed to fight unless it was to defend herself. "I don't want to fight you, Haruka." That was the truth too. She didn't really want to fight her until they could do it after school, in the main courtyard, where someone was sure to see Haruka throw the first punch.
Haruka laughed. "What's wrong? Does the little chicken monkey want to run away again?" She turned to her friends. "Even her dad is a wimp. He's dumb too. I told him I didn't have the ball, and he believed me." The group of girls laughed as Haruka looked back at Usagi. "I bet everyone in your monkey family are wimps too."
Usagi could feel her energy build up inside her. She wanted to take her out right then and there, but if she did, her father would be disappointed in her. She hated it when he was. "My family is the strongest family in the world."
Michiru was cracking up. "Yeah, and mine is the richest in the world." She put the Dragon Ball in her book bag.
Usagi clenched her hands into fists. "Shut up. I'm stronger than you'll ever be."
Michiru stopped laughing for a short moment. "Man, if you're strong, I'd hate to see a weak person."
Haruka looked back at her friend. "Good one Michiru."
"Why don't you leave Usagi alone!"
Haruka turned around to see two familiar faces. "Ahhhh, yes, I remember you. Makoto isn't it? Didn't I beat you up about a month ago?"
Makoto growled at Haruka. She hated to admit that she was beaten by a person in a lower class then her. "Yeah, so what? You wouldn't be able to do it now." She smirked. "I've been training with some very powerful people."
Haruka laughed. "Ooooh, powerful people, I'm scared." She got right up in Makoto's face. "They may be powerful, but you are not."
Makoto frowned. She didn't have to take this from her. She made a fist and was about to hit Haruka when she felt Usagi's hand grab her arm. She looked over to Usagi. "What are you doing Usagi. We can take them out, and get your Dragon Ball back."
Usagi shook her head. "No Makoto."
Makoto studied Usagi's face very carefully. She saw a plan in her eyes. "All right, have it your way."
Usagi smiled and then turned around to Haruka. "We have to get to class. We WILL continue this after school, in the main courtyard."
Haruka didn't like the way Usagi was trying to order her around. "Oh, we will, will we? I don't think so." She began to walk away.
Usagi had to think of a way to get Haruka to meet her after school. It was her only chance. She put her hands up to her mouth. "Well you know what? Who's the wimp now? I think I just beat you without having to lift a finger you big bully!" That got Haruka's attention.
Haruka turned around. "What did you say? I'm not a wimp! You're on! I'll meet you after school. Prepare yourselves to get beaten up, AGAIN!" Haruka laughed as she turned around and walked away. Michiru followed closely behind.
Minako looked to her friend. "Usagi? Do you know what you're doing?"
Usagi kept her eyes on Haruka and smirked. "Don't worry Minako." She put her arm around her neck. "I have a plan that is sure to work." The three girls turned around and walked back to their class.
~*~*~
Usagi, Makoto, and Minako barely made it to class on time. Usagi and Minako ran to their table in the back of the room and sat down. Makoto followed and sat across the table from Minako. "Wow, this is so cool. We sit at the same table."
Usagi pulled out a pencil and paper and began to draw a picture of a cat. "Yeah I know. It's going to be fun this year."
Minako looked down at the picture. Usagi had drawn a strange shape on the cat's forehead. "Usagi, why did you draw that moon looking figure on the cat?"
Usagi put her pencil down and started rummaging around her bag until she found her box of crayons. She looked at the picture as she pulled out her black crayon. "It's the cat from my dreams."
Makoto looked at the picture and then back at Usagi. "You dreamt about a cat with a moon on it's head" She found that to be a little strange.
Usagi colored the cat's body black. "I didn't dream about the cat. It was just in my dream." When she was finished coloring with the black crayon she put it back in the box and pulled out the yellow crayon.
Minako looked at the drawing of the cat. It was a very cute drawing. "What was the dream about?" She watched as Usagi began applying the yellow color to the moon on the cat's forehead.
Usagi shrugged. "I don't really remember. All I know is that there was this cat running to me." Usagi had dreamt about it about three months ago.
Miss Haruna interrupted their conversation. "Hello Minako, Usagi. It's nice to have you back with us. I see you've met your table partner, Makoto. She joined us the day after you left." She looked down at Usagi's drawing. "Oh what a cute little kitty. You are a good artist Usagi."
Minako looked at her teacher. "It's a cat from Usagi's dream."
Miss Haruna looked up at Minako and then back down at the picture. "Usagi, would you mind if I hung it up here in the classroom?" Usagi shook her head. "Great." Miss Haruna picked up the picture and hung it up by the door.
Makoto looked around to make sure that no one was around. "So, Usagi what's this plan of yours to get your Dragon Ball back and repay Haruka and Michiru?" She was so anxious to hear it. She couldn't wait any longer then she already had.
Usagi grinned. "Well, you see, my daddy told me only to fight if we are defending ourselves. So, That's what we will do. We will make Haruka and Michiru try to beat us up. Then when they do, we can move in. We won't hurt them though. I don't want to be like them. If we do it in front of the office, then someone may see them trying to beat us up before we even have to do anything. What do you guys think?" She looked around to her friends.
Minako liked the idea. "That sounds good Usagi, but, knowing those two, we may just have to hurt them."
Makoto thought for a moment. "Minako is right. They don't give up easily. They can take a real beating before they stop. That's how they beat me when I was fighting them in my class. I'm in a higher class then them too." Makoto had always wanted to get back at them for it.
"But I don't want to hurt them." 'Daddy wouldn't hurt them if he didn't have to.'
~*~*~
Haruka sat in front of the principal's office waiting to be called in. She didn't know what she was in trouble for THIS time. She hadn't done anything since she got back.
Mrs. Willings' door slammed open. "Miss Tenno!"
Haruka stood up and walked into the office. She sat down in the chair that sat in front of Mrs. Willings' desk. "What am I here for? I haven't done anything."
Mrs. Willings sat down in her chair and stared at Haruka. "Please Miss Tenno. Let me conduct this meeting. After all, I am the one who called you down here."
Haruka rolled her eyes. "Fine." She got comfortable in the chair.
Mrs. Willings pulled out a thick folder and set in on her desk. "Haruka, we have a problem here. You are the only person who is a regular in this office." Haruka snorted. "I know you never take anything I say seriously, but school isn't a game. It isn't a place for you to beat up on others."
Haruka put her feet on Mrs. Willings desk. She looked her in the eye. "It is to me."
Mrs. Willings could feel herself getting angry. "Don't talk like that to me young lady. I'm not the person you want to be talking to like that." She stood up and picked Haruka's feet, dropped them to the floor, and then sat down. "We have a complaint from Son Goku. Usagi's father. You remember Usagi don't you?"
Haruka smirked. "Yeah, I remember her. She's that little pipsqueak I beat up. So what's she complaining about now?"
Mrs. Willings glared at Haruka. She hated her attitude. "Well it seems as though you have something of hers. What did he call it? Oh yes, a Dragon Ball."
Haruka knew that he would go to the principal. Her family was a bunch of whiners who couldn't solve their own problems. "I don't have it."
Mrs. Willings raised her eyebrow. "You don't have it?"
Haruka nodded. "I don't have it. Why is that so hard for you to understand?"
Mrs. Willings stood up. "So if we searched you for it, we wouldn't find anything?"
Haruka shook her head. Luckily, she had given the ball to Michiru that morning. "Not a thing." She stood up and stepped to the side of her chair. "Go ahead. Search me all that you want." She was challenging Mrs. Willings.
Mrs. Willings searched Haruka's bag and person only to find nothing. Haruka grinned. "See, I told you. But no one believes me."
Mrs. Willings sat back down at he desk. She knew that Haruka had it somewhere. She probably had it at home, but there was nothing more that she could do. She felt sorry for Usagi. She had tried to get the Dragon Ball back, but she failed. "You can leave now Haruka."
~*~*~
At lunch, Usagi, Minako, and Makoto ate lunch on the playground. They sat on a bench, which sat next to the swing set. Usagi pulled out her drink. She was dying of thirst. "So, did you guys bring your training cloths?" She opened her drink and took a big gulp of it.
Minako pulled out he lunch bag. "I did." She turned to Makoto.
"Of course I did. I've had to for the past week, remember? While you guys got to relax during the day last week, I have had to come to school and deal with these retards who call themselves humans?"
Usagi looked at Makoto. She didn't quite understand what she was trying to say. "Makoto? Have they been making fu…"
A group of boys walked up to the three girls. One grabbed Minako's lunch bag and threw it on the ground. "Hey freaks. How did you like getting yourselves beaten up?" He laughed as he stepped on the bag, which he had just thrown on the ground.
Minako stood up. "Why don't you get out of my face before I loose my temper and show you what it felt like." Usagi stood up beside her friend ready to help her if she needed it.
The dusty blonde hair kid laughed. "Stupid girl." He slapped her in the face. "Women shouldn't talk to men that way. We are superior to you."
Minako was shocked at the treatment she had just received. She wasn't going to take that from him. "Well, you aren't a man." She made a fist and hit him in the stomach forcing him to fall to the ground.
The kid grabbed his stomach. "What are you? You really are a freak if you can hit that hard." He looked to Usagi and smirked as he stood up. "Hey, look fellas. It's Monkey Girl."
Usagi could feel herself tense up. "Don't ever, EVER call me that again! If you do, there will be trouble."
The dusty blonde kid got up in her face and laughed as loud as he could. Makoto laughed too. "Obviously he didn't learn his lesson when Minako hit him."
Usagi smirked. "Yeah, maybe he will learn it better from me." Right when she was about to knee him she thought of what her father told her about fighting. She put her knee back onto the ground. She couldn't hit him and not feel guilty about it. He had not hit her yet. "You know what? I'm going to let you off easy today. Instead of demonstrating it on you, my friends and I will just show you instead."
Minako looked over at her friend. "Usagi, he deserves it."
Usagi cupped her hands. "No, he didn't hit me. Daddy says to only fight when the other person starts it first. Come on, let me show them what I can really do to them. I won't make it big." Minako took one look at Usagi's hands and knew exactly what she was talking about. Usagi began concentrating her energy into her hands and a little golden ball formed between them. The group of boys stood in awe as the rest of the kids gathered around to watch what she was doing. "Ready Minako?" Minako nodded. With that, Usagi released her energy ball at Minako.
Minako watched as the blast came rushing towards her. Right before it hit her, she kicked it into the air. Usagi decided to have little bit of fun so she jumped into the air and followed it up high into the sky. Minako put her hand to her forehead to block her eyes from the sun, as did all of the other children at lunch. "Wow, look Makoto, she can fly better then us."
A girl with two pigtails walked up behind Minako as she too watched Usagi fly higher and higher into the sky. "You mean, you guys can fly?"
Makoto could barely fly forward without staggering let alone fly fast like Usagi. "Yeah, her dad has been training us. I guess Usagi learned faster than us."
Usagi flew up above the blast. She put her hands together to make one big fist and hit the ball of energy back down to Minako like a volleyball. "Incoming!"
Makoto knew that, even though the ball was small, it had a lot of force behind it. If it was left to fall it could hurt someone, even Minako or herself. Right before the ball hit, she jumped up as high as she could and kicked it away from the school. It crashed into a tree. "Good job Usagi. That was cool."
Usagi landed and everyone crowded around her. They all wanted to know how she did that. "You guys, I'm not talking to you." She crossed her arms and closed her eyes. "You all said that I was a freak, now beat it!" Usagi pushed her way out of the crowd and sat down on the bench again.
The crowd of kids followed. The boy who had teased her walked up to her. "We take it back. You aren't a freak. Now, tell us how you did that."
Usagi looked up at the boy. "NO!"
The boy turned around to the crowd of kids that stood behind him. "She isn't going to tell us. Let's just leave the…" He turned his head back to Usagi, "FREAK alone." He laughed and walked away.
Makoto and Minako sat back down on the bench. Makoto took out her sandwich that her mother had packed for her. "Why didn't you talk to them Usagi? They were being nice to you for a change."
Usagi laughed. "You think I want to be their friends after the way they treated me? You have got to be kidding. Just knowing that I can beat them up if I wanted to is good enough for me. And besides, I already have two best friends." Usagi smiled as she looked over at Minako and Makoto.
~*~*~
After school Usagi and her friends rushed to the bathrooms so they could get themselves changed. They didn't want to make Haruka and Michiru think that they had chickened out. Usagi pulled her blue GI out of her bag and put it on. Then she pulled out her gray metal boots and slid them on her feet. They went all the way to her knees. She walked to the mirror and looked at herself. She was a true fighter now. She smiled to herself and then turned around. Minako and Makoto stood behind her. "Today is the day that we have all been waiting for, for a long time. We all have a reason to hate Haruka and Michiru, and now we can humiliate them. Girls," Usagi smirked. "Let's go."
Minako and Makoto threw their fists in the air. "Yeah!"
~*~*~
Haruka and Michiru impatiently waited for the three "freaks", as they put it. Haruka tossed the Dragon Ball from hand to hand as she waited. "Where are they? They said that they would be here. I want to beat them up and then leave. I'm getting really annoyed."
"We are right here Haruka!" Usagi stood tall with her arms on her waist. She wore a frown on her face.
Haruka turned around and carefully examined Usagi's outfit. "What are you guys supposed to be? Some sort of martial arts specialists?"
If Usagi could have frowned harder she would have. She hated Haruka and wanted to take her out, right then and there. "Give me my Dragon Ball back Haruka, before I am forced to come and take it from you." Usagi readied herself.
Haruka laughed. "You think you can take this from me? I'd like to see you try. Last time, I beat your ass into the ground. I will gladly do it again if you would like me to."
"Why don't you try me and see what happens?" Usagi didn't know what she was saying. It was like she didn't have any control over what came out of her mouth. She turned back and looked into the office to see if anyone was watching.
~*~*~*
Little did Usagi know that she had a spectator. Goku sat behind a bush and quietly watched what was going on. He knew that Haruka had the ball. He could see it being tossed around in her hands. He decided he would wait to intervene. He wanted to see if Usagi could restrain herself from fighting for it. She wasn't doing too well of a job so far. He had told Usagi not to fight unless it was for defense. What he forgot to tell her was that she wasn't supposed to challenge either.
Goku hated to just sit by and watch his daughter get teased and he knew that she hated it too. She seemed to be holding up on her own though.
~*~*~
Haruka stopped tossing the Dragon Ball from hand to hand and began tossing the ball up in the air. "You know, you had better watch what you're saying monkey girl. I may just take you up on it one of these days." She threw the ball back to Michiru and walked up to Makoto. "Come on kid, let's have a rematch. Right here, right now!"
Makoto was very tempted to fight her. She got in her fighting stance. "I WILL beat you this time." She felt a hand on her shoulder. She turned around to see that it was Usagi's hand. "Usagi?"
Haruka frowned. She was getting really tired of Usagi trying to keep peace. "Look monkey girl. I'm getting tired of you always interfering. You aren't getting your stupid Dragon Ball back and that's final." Haruka raised her leg and kicked Usagi in the face, forcing her to fall to the ground.
Usagi pushed her body up with her hands. She let her head hang down to the ground as she tried to get the blur out of her eyes. She could see well enough to see her blood dripping from her mouth onto her hand.
Haruka laughed as she walked up to Usagi. "Here we go again. Does this seem familiar." She kicked Usagi in the stomach. "Oh yes, this reminds me of the time that I kicked the crap out of you so badly last time." Usagi fell flat on her face again.
~*~*~
Goku cringed with every kick that his daughter had to endure. He could feel her pain.
~*~*~
Makoto couldn't take it anymore. She couldn't just stand around and watch her friend get beaten up. "Why you little..." She ran for Haruka with her hands in front of her.
Haruka turned around and saw Makoto running for her. "You guys just never learn do you?"
Usagi stood up and wrapped her arms around Haruka. "Give me my Dragon Ball." She tightened her grip on Haruka. Usagi could feel her anger building up within herself.
Haruka saw that Makoto stopped running for her. She looked over her shoulder to the girl who was squeezing her. "I will never give it back to you, you stupid monkey freak!" Usagi squeezed even harder. "AAAHHH! What are you some kind of freak."
Usagi didn't let go of Haruka. "I'll say it once more, give me my Dragon Ball BACK NOW!"
Haruka cried out in pain. "Michiru! Run! Don't let them have it. They are just stupid freaks! They don't deserve it." Michiru listened to her friend and tried to make a run for it.
Usagi was not about to loose her Dragon Ball again. She let go of Haruka and let her fall to the ground. She quickly turned to Minako and Makoto, "Watch her!" With that she chased Michiru into the parking lot.
Michiru ran as fast as she could. She looked behind her. Usagi was hot on her tail. She couldn't let herself get caught. If she did, Usagi would beat her up like she did Haruka. "Stay away from me you demon child!" She turned back around.
"Give me my Dragon Ball!" Usagi jumped in the air. She could fly faster then she could run. 'I WILL have my Dragon Ball back'
Michiru looked behind her again. She was surprised to see that Usagi was no longer behind her. She slowed down and eventually stopped. She panted heavily as she turned back around. "Oh my god! How did you do that!?" Michiru was startled by Usagi, who now stood right in front of her.
Usagi laughed. "That's my little secret." She held out her hand and approached Michiru. "You have something of mine and I want it back."
Michiru backed up as Usagi came closer. She fumbled around in her coat pocket until she found the Dragon Ball. She pulled it out of her pocket and placed it in Usagi's hands. "Please don't hurt me." Michiru was scared of Usagi. She had never seen anyone, especially a 5-year old, be able to make Haruka cry out like she had.
Usagi smiled. "Thank you. Now you see, that wasn't so hard now was it?" She walked past Michiru and then ran back to her friends who were holding Haruka by the arms. "Ok you guys, you can let her go now. I got my Dragon Ball back." Usagi held it up for her friends to see. It shined in the bright sunlight. Usagi was proud of herself. Learning to fight had really paid off in the end. It made her stronger, and it brought up her self-esteem.
Makoto looked at the ball. "Wow, it's beautiful Usagi."
Minako looked over at their hostage. "What do you want us to do with her?"
Usagi took her attention off of her Dragon Ball and looked at Haruka. She looked really scared. Usagi laughed. After everything that Haruka had done to her, she finally gotten her back. "Let her go. She has nothing that I want anymore."
Makoto couldn't believe that Usagi was just going to let her go without doing anything to her. "But after everything that she's done to you…don't you want to get even?"
Usagi shrugged. "I guess I have a few things I want to say to her." She walked in front of Haruka and bent down so she would be eye level with her. "Now then, you will never call me "Monkey Girl" again. You will never tease me again, and you will never touch MY Dragon Ball ever again." She stood up. "Ok, I'm through."
Makoto wasn't going to just let it go at that. She made a fist and punched her in the stomach. "Ok, I'm happy. You can go now."
Makoto and Minako released their grip on Haruka and let her fall to the ground. They all laughed at her as she slowly crawled away.
"Usagi…"
Usagi turned around when she heard her father call her name. She ran up to him and jumped in his arms and wrapped her tail around his arm. "Look daddy. I got my Dragon Ball back." The other two girls walked up to the two Saiyans.
Goku looked his daughter in the eyes. He knew that she was pleased with herself. "I know, I watched the whole thing. You handled yourself very well out there. There were many times when I was sure that you were going to loose it and start throwing punches."
Usagi was confused. "But daddy, you told me not to unless it was in defense, so I didn't."
Goku didn't know what to say. He didn't want his daughter to think that he didn't trust her. "Well I know, but many fighters loose their cool when they are being taunted."
Usagi started to understand. "Oh. Have you ever 'lost your cool' daddy." Usagi leaned her head against his shoulder. She had worn herself out.
"I'm sorry to say that I have. But I don't ever want you to. The results can be horrible." He looked down at Makoto. "You are just lucky she didn't have any strength left to strike back at you."
Makoto blushed. She was embarrassed. "I'm sorry Goku. I won't let it happen again."
Goku rubbed his hand on his daughter's back. "It's alright Makoto." He looked around at all of the girls. "You guys look tired."
Usagi yawned. "We are. Well, I know I am."
"Why don't I give you guys today off. You have had a long day. But on one condition. You have to fly home." He set Usagi down on the ground.
She looked at her friends and then back up at her father. "I think we can deal with that, right girls?"
Makoto and Minako nodded in agreeance. "Hear that daddy? You have a deal."
Goku smiled as he jumped in the air. "All right, let's get you guys home then." He began flying to his destination. Usagi and her friends followed him into the air.
(::puff, Wheeze:: gees writing a 15 page chapter really does take a lot out of a person. lol. So, what do you think? I finally finished chapter one and chapter two part one should be out on Monday. I told you this was going to be a long story. I would get it Chapter 2 Part 1 out tomorrow, but, with tomorrow being Easter, my parents want me to go to a family get together. Oh yeah, a little note from me. Some of you are asking if Ami and Rei will be in the story. Don't worry, they will be in the story soon. I already have the perfect place to put both of them in. And early in this part I wrote a part about Usagi having a dream about a black cat with a crescent moon on it's forehead, I realize that it's too early for her to be Sailor Moon. Don't worry about that either. She isn't Sailor Moon yet nor will she find out about it until she is older. I just like to set up my story so I can write a good one. I hate stories that have wholes in the plot line. Ok, enough from me, What do you think about this part? Was it good? Was it bad? Please review and tell me. Thank you ^_~)
