Author's Notes: *sniff* I feel so special with all your reviews! I
promise in this one, there will be more interaction between Usagi and the
JL. I just realized that I had Usagi not understanding English but all of
a sudden, she makes a crack about something Wonder Woman says, but I think
I figured something to twist with that. Hint: Wonder Woman's real name?
Diana~The roman goddess of the moon. xP

Chapter Two: Batman, Popcorn, and What Became of Them.
Usagi woke up in a bed hours later. She had fallen back asleep after her "chat" with Mamoru. She felt terrible, but wonderful at the same time. Mamoru cared so deeply for her that he was willing to give her up for a thousand years if it meant her happiness.
'I don't know if I can love anyone the way I love Mamoru, but I might as well try to make friends.' Usagi thought to herself as she walked around, looking for a bathroom.
She found one and walked in. She looked like a mess. Her eyes were red and puffy from crying and her hair was everywhere! She then realized that she still had her wings and was still butt naked.
'Sigh, being naked is way too natural in this form. I don't even realize it. I'm not even cold or anything.' Usagi thought to herself.
Usagi touched the Ginzuishou which was attached to her chest and it was absorbed into her body. Ribbons surrounded her and she was back in her Juuban uniform. Her wings and crescent moon birthmark were gone too. Usagi stripped off her clothes and got into the shower.
'Aah! I love showers. I feel so relaxed.'
Usagi stayed in the shower for half an hour before finally getting out and changing back into her school uniform with a wrinkle of her small, button nose.
'Gross!' She thought as she put the sweaty clothes back on. 'At least transforming kept the clothes from getting ripped or anything.'
Usagi wrapped her hair in a towel and skipped along her merry way back to the main room in the space station.
After countless turns and four dead-ends, Usagi stopped.
'I am so lost.' She sighed to herself.
She turned around and bumped into something red.
"Gomen!" She chirped.
"Hey, sorry about that." Flash said with a big smile.
Usagi tilted her head and looked up at him curiously.
'Right, the girl only speaks Japanese.' Flash thought to himself tiredly.
Usagi stood there, as if expecting him to say something.
"So. . ." He said as he slid an arm around her shoulder. "Goin anywhere specific?"
Okay, she was sixteen and didn't understand a word he said, but that didn't mean he couldn't have a little fun and try. It wasn't like he was going to DO anything. Besides, he hit on Hawkgirl and Wonder Woman all the time and they didn't even give him a second thought. Plus, he was sure he could use the universal language to communicate with her. Body language! Hah!
'Whoa, I've been watching "The Little Mermaid" way too much. Those shells just get me every time.' Flash thought to himself.
While Flash was going over the thoughts in his head, Usagi decided she would just have to demand what she wanted as politely as she could with her limited English. She gave a bright smile.
"Food!" She said.
Now this was his kinda girl!
"Alright, I'll take ya there. Hold on tight." And with that, Flash took Usagi by the arm and sped to the kitchen, faster than the speed of light.
Usagi looked around in wonder. They had FIVE refrigerators. She was gonna like it here.
Flash immediately opened all the refrigerators and started pulling out food as fast as he could. Soon, he had most edible products on the counter-top, except broccoli.
Usagi's mouth was watering as she looked at all the food. She caught flash's eye and grinned.
"Eat!" She squealed.
"We most certainly shall!" Flash said as he rubbed his hands together and started eating.
*
Wonder Woman and Superman walked into the kitchen. The sight that met them almost made them green. The Green Lantern and Hawkgirl were already in the kitchen watching Usagi and Flash having an eating contest. What made them sick was the fact that Flash was using his superhuman speed as an advantage, but Usagi was keeping up! Containers, wrappers, and dirty dishes piled up around them when they both leaned back in their chairs and heaved a sigh. Flash let out a tremendous burp.
"I like this girl already." Flash declared with his usual cheesy grin.
"Yummy!" Usagi squealed.
"There's no more food left, but it's okay because I think I've lost my appetite." Hawkgirl said a little queasily.
"After watching that eating contest, I'd have to agree with you." Green Lantern replied.
"So who won?" Wonder Woman wondered.
"Won what?" Usagi asked cluelessly in Japanese.
"The eating contest." Wonder Woman replied in English.
"That wasn't an eating contest, silly. That was just dinner!" Usagi said with a laugh.
The other members of the Justice League looked at each other, a little confused.
"Is it just me, or did they understand each other?" Superman asked.
"I believe Usagi and Diana can understand each other despite the language barriers because they are both connected with the moon." Jon said as he entered the kitchen.
Usagi looked cluelessly at him.
'Diana is the protector of the moon. She was created by the goddess Hera for her mother. Her mother is the Amazon queen of Themascera. Because of your ties with the moon, I believe you two can understand each other.' He thought to her.
Usagi became very excited. She started jabbering very excitedly in Japanese to Diana.
Diana answered her questions as best she could but some of the questions were just ridiculous.
"Were you really MADE? How were you made? Are you like a robot or something? If you are, you're very lifelike. . ."
"Usagi," Diana interrupted, "I am not a robot. My mother sculpted a statue because she wanted a child very badly. Hera took pity on her and gave life to the statue and that's who I am."
"You used to be made out of clay?" Usagi asked, completely unaware of her rudeness.
"No, marble. That's why I'm strong." Diana said.
"If you were made of marble, wouldn't you be really stiff?" Usagi asked.
Diana just heaved a sigh. "Usagi, I do not know the workings and ways of the gods."
Jon had been giving out electronic ear-pieces during Usagi and Diana's conversation.
"These will let you understand Usagi." Jon said as he handed the devices to the rest of the Justice League. "It was developed to allow us to understand what alien races tell us. Unfortunately, it will take time to develop a device to translate English into Japanese for Usagi so Diana and I will have to translate for the time being."
Jon finished distributing the earpieces in time for the members of the Justice League to hear Usagi's crack about Diana being made of marble.
"Diana," Hawkgirl said, "Can you tell Usagi that Batman will be coming to pick her up in a few hours. She'll be staying on earth with him."
Diana nodded and relayed the message to Usagi.
"WHAT?!? You're leaving me alone with him? But he tried to kill me! And he's so boring, he never jokes around and he's so stiff! He's the one that should be made of marble!" Usagi screeched.
The Justice League burst out into laughter.
"Let's put it this way, Usagi. You can stay with Batman on Earth, or you can stay here and spend all your time with Flash." Superman said with amusement.
Flash turned to her and gave her a very wide grin and a wink.
Usagi glanced wearily at Flash. "Fun as he is, he's a big pervert. Looks like I'll just have to get Batman to open up!"
Flash's head drooped, even the little lightning bolts on either side of his head seemed to sag. He looked pitiful.
Usagi came over and gave him a big hug.
"If it makes you feel any better, if you were ten years younger I would have given you a chance." Usagi stated matter-of-factly as she gave him a kiss on the cheek.
The entire room burst out laughing again.
*
Usagi decided to spend her few hours left aboard the space station wandering around and getting to know the place better. Hopefully, she wouldn't be stuck with Batman all the time and she'd be able to come up here for visits.
'I wonder how long I'll be here.' Usagi thought to herself. 'Well, if I'm going to be traveling for 1000 years, I'm sure I'll be staying here for a while. After all, it's not like I'm going to be visiting a thousand places. I definitely have enough time to get to know these people. Maybe I'll even have time to get some type of emotion from Batman.' Usagi giggled to herself.
'1000 years sure is a long time to be alone.' Her eyes began to sadden.
'But at least I have something to look forward to. At least I know that I'll see them again someday and I have to try my best to become a great queen so that when they do come back, they'll be proud of me.' Usagi said as her eyes hardened with resolve.
'I'll become a great queen, minna (everyone), you'll see. I'll become a great queen so that when I rule of Crystal Tokyo, there'll be peace and you won't have to fight, and we'll all be happy. You'll see.' Usagi thought.
Usagi had somehow wandered to the front of a door. When she walked through it, she gasped with delight. She was greeted by the sight of many large windows instead of the usual drab metal. She could see outside. She saw the earth and all the stars winking out at her. It was beautiful. Then she caught sight of Hawkgirl, head in her hands and staring almost longingly out into space.
"What's wrong?" Usagi asked as she placed a hand on the other winged- woman's shoulder.
Hawkgirl jumped at the sudden touch but relaxed when she saw it was only Usagi. She smiled ruefully at the thought of Usagi trying to not only understand her feelings, but her English as well.
"You miss your home." Usagi said.
Hawkgirl was astonished. How had she. . .?
"I can see it in your eyes. You don't have to say anything." Usagi said with a smile.
Hawkgirl looked at her. "Eyes?" She asked as she pointed a finger at her masked eyeball.
Usagi giggled. "Yes. It's the same way we would all look when we thought about the Silver Millenium."
Hawkgirl sighed and leaned back in her chair. They were quiet for a while, but it was a peaceful silence. A silence where comfort was given without words.
"Do you want to go back?" Usagi asked.
"To my home?" Hawkgirl asked.
"Yes, I could send you, you know." Usagi said, pointing to her crystal.
Hawkgirl looked very hopeful.
"But would you want to go back?" Usagi asked.
Hawkgirl glanced at her with confusion.
"Look at all your friends. Would you really want to leave them? Could you really leave them?" Usagi asked.
Hawkgirl looked crestfallen. She opened her mouth and closed it. She opened it again and closed it once more.
"My home. . ." She choked out.
Usagi gave her a gentle smile. "It's okay to wish for the past once in a while, but don't lose sight of the present. If you spend too much time in the 'then', you might not notice the great things that are happening in the 'now'. You might not recognize that you like 'here' better than 'there'.
"You might not understand that you are home." Usagi said as she gazed meaningfully once more into Hawkgirl's eyes before turning to leave her with her thoughts.
Hawkgirl watched Usagi leave with a small smile on her face.
"You don't need to learn to be a great queen, Usagi. You'll already make a great one." Hawkgirl said softly to herself.
With a final glance into space, Hawgirl walked out of the room and to Green Lantern's quarters.
"Hey Lantern," she said as she knocked on his door, "Let's go do something, I'm bored of looking at all these stars."
*
Usagi continued on her exploration of the space station.
'I'm bored. I need to find someone fun to do something with. Flash is a big hentai but at least he's fun! If I was a big, red, pervert, where would I be?' Usagi pondered to herself.
'Oh, I know! I would be watching dirty movies or reading dirty magazines!' Usagi thought.
'But would I really like to barge in on something like that?' Usagi asked herself as she tapped her chin with her finger.
Just then, she rounded her corner and found herself in a den with a big screen t.v. On the t.v. was a horror movie and laying on the sofa, watching the horror movie, was Flash.
'Fun!' Usagi thought to herself as she jumped over the couch and landed on his legs. Flash moved his legs out from under her and handed her a humongous bowl of popcorn, not taking his eyes from the screen. Usagi muttered her thanks as she took the bowl, not taking her eyes off the screen either. Flash offered her some of his blanket and she got comfy as they watched the black and white horror flick.
As the plot thickened, Usagi and Flash found themselves leaning further and further forward in their sitting position. The blanket lay discarded at their feet and they stared open mouthed at the screen. Flash didn't even notice that the popcorn he was picking out of his bowl and putting in his mouth was nonexistent.
There was a sudden scream as a monster came into view. Usagi threw her bowl of popcorn in the air, sending fluffy white pieces of food everywhere. She and Flash jumped into each others arms and screamed.
They were still in each other's arms, watching the movie when the rest of the Justice League showed up in the room, out of breath.
"What happened, we heard two girls screaming!" Superman shouted.
Usagi 'shushed' him and waved him over to the couch, taking no heed to the fact that she was still hugging Flash. Superman, Green Lantern, Hawkgirl, and Wonder Woman all gave each other dubious looks, shrugged, and made their way to the couch. Martian Manhunter made his way to a recliner and sat in it stiffly.
Twenty minutes later, the Justice League was sprawled out on the couch all over each other to achieve maximum comfort ability, except Martian Manhunter who still sat rigidly in his recliner. They looked like a bunch of teenagers at a sleepover.
That was the way Batman found them two hours later when he came to pick up Usagi. As he was bewilderedly looking at how they were all acting, a bowl of popcorn was chucked at him and landed on his head when Usagi screamed, once again.

Chibi Pyro Duo: You said that Usagi is not just going to tell who she is and tell about her past to people who she just met but you neglected a few things. One, Usagi is very naïve, she was the only one to ever tell her identity and that was to mamoru. Why? Because she was about to die in an elevator. Batman was also threatening to kill her. On top of that, she assumed that Beryl had a reason for sending her to these people, who were obviously superheroes in their colorful spandex. I think that coupled with the shock of being thrown to another dimension was enough to get her to tell those people. Two, she realized that Martian Manhunter could read her mind and had looked through all her memories. If she didn't show them, he probably would have told them. Thnx for the criticism though. I also hate fics where she just up and tells everyone who she is and all her past but to me, it's more probable that she would tell people about her past as soon as she meets them or not at all. Think of Naru. Usagi trusts her very much, best friends for years but usagi doesn't just one day decide, "oh, Naru's loyal, why don't I go tell her?" She tells when it's necessary and when it's saving her butt from batman, I say it's necessary.
Miko no Tsuki: I've read "Leap" and I really love it. I liked the idea of Usagi going to other dimensions to learn lessons and NOT to find her "real" soulmate or whatever. I hope my story isn't TOO much like it though. I mean, I love the story but I don't want to be a moocher, you know? Hopefully the storyline will turn out very differently. (but still good).
Jules: I MIGHT send her to CCS but probably towards the end. it'd be nice for Usagi to go over there and just help Sakura out. As for YGO, I love the series, but I just can't see Usagi going over there. Gomen!
