Chapter 3: Do you Believe in Magic?
Under the same tree they met the day before Ranma, Arimi, Rei and Usagi sit talking and eating.
"According to Grandpa a devil visited our place yesterday."
"Really? Has Elvis returned Rei?"
Rei rolled her eyes at Usagi's suggestion; however it was a well-known fact amongst their group that her grandpa thought Elvis was the king of demons.
"No, but the devil was a gaijin, speaking of gaijins, Ranma where's your apartment mate?"
"Not sure, he must of came home late last night. I saw P-chan this morning so he had to of come home at some time."
"Hey Rei, What does your grandpa think about what happened at Tokyo Tower?"
"He thinks it was a sign of a dark lords return, I think it was just some sort of promotional stunt."
"No Rei I was there, and it was definitely real."
The four of them turned there heads to see a tall young man with spiked black hair dressed in a Dragon Ball T-shirt and blue jean approach their group. He then took a seat next to Usagi.
"Really Gohan?"
"I'm sure of it Usagi, I mean I tried fighting that thing yesterday and it threw me aside like I was nothing."
"Gohan, you not really that strong you know."
"He is stronger then most people though Rei, Gohan do you really think that thing was real?"
"No doubt about it."
"Gee a guy in a rubber suit just happens to be stronger then Gohan so it has to be a real demon."
"Rei, it wasn't a rubber suit. The youma was real and so was Sailor Venus."
"That so cool! Real Sailor Senshi!"
"Usagi, how can you believe in that stuff?"
"Rei, I know you're skeptical of the paranormal because of you Grandfather, but maybe it is real."
"Ranma, back me up here, you don't think it was real do you?"
"Sorry Rei, but I'd have to agree with Arimi, maybe it is real."
***
Not far from the group an American girl with red hair watches and listens to their argument. She balls a brown bag up and then walks to a nearby trashcan. Under her breath she speaks to herself.
"It's real."
Gaijin then walked of to her next class grateful she had registered for classes in both forms.
***
After all of her classes were over Rei got on a bus to town. Her grandfather had asked he to pick up some stuff before she went to study with her friend at Ranma's. Despite her constant public denial of magic and such, part of her thought that maybe, just maybe, it was real. On more then a few occasions Rei had thought she was actually seeing something in her grandpa's fire readings. It was just the way her grandfather talked about such things they just seemed a bit on the fake side. Now there was the youma and Sailor Venus. She never had been a fan of the Sailor Moon but she knew Sailor Venus was one of the characters from that show. Since it was just a cartoon what happened at Tokyo Tower had to be some sort of promotional stunt. There were no real Sailor Senshi.
***
At a television store a display television transformed growing arms and legs. A face appeared on its monitor and it broke out the display window. After it got on the streets it started attacking people around the store.
***
Rei had just gotten of the bus when she saw a TV with arms and legs terrorizing people. Before she could get back on the bus it zoomed off. (The driver had seen what was going on and became afraid for his life.) Not quite sure if it was real or not Rei quickly ran into a near by alley, just in case.
"I don't care what Gohan said, this can't be real."
"But it is."
Rei turned around to see no one. She then looked down to see a black cat with a glowing golden crescent on its forehead. Rei turned back around and closed her eyes.
"A cat is not talking to me."
"I'm afraid I am. Look you need to stop that thing."
Rei opened her eyes and took a second look at the black cat.
"I need to stop that thing? What are you talking about?"
"Whether you know it or not you have the power of Sailor Mars."
"Sure I do."
The cat did a complicated flip and a pen appeared out of nowhere. It picked up the pen with its mouth and held it to Rei. Rei took the pen from the cat's mouth and examined it.
"Hold it up and shout 'Mars Power Make Up', just like in the show"
"You've got to be kidding me."
The cat looked at her with a very serious gaze. Rei hesitated; she didn't believe what was happening. Not knowing what else to do she did what she was told. She held up the pen and shouted 'Mars Power Make Up', flames surrounded her and when they died down she looked exactly like Naoko Takeuchi's Sailor Mars.
"Now do you believe me?"
"Now I'm confused."
"Well that's better then nothing, now if you please take care of that youma."
Rei again obeyed and ran out of the alley towards the TV youma.
***
People were scattering away from the youma and then Sailor Mars appeared.
"Leave those people alone! Your reign of terror ends here!"
The Youma look at Sailor Mars. It pressed a button on its monitor and knife appeared in its hand and it charged her. The first thing that came to her mind was Sailor Mars' basic attack from the show.
"Fire Soul!"
The blast of fire nocked the knife out of youma's hand and it stopped its charge. It pressed another button on it's monitor and two six shooters now appeared in it's hand and it started firing at Sailor Mars. Surprised at the ease she was having dodging the bullets Sailor Mars knew she had to do something. She really wished she had watched the show more. Suddenly words popped into her head. She turned to the youma.
"Mars Flame Sniper!"
An arrow of flames went flying into the youma's face, and a second later it vaporized. The people nearby all looked at Sailor Mars. She decided now would be a good time to leave. Wondering if she could, she jumped up to the roof of on of the stores. After pausing for a second, amazed at what she had just done she made her way out of sight of the people on the street. Gohan had walked out of a nearby costume shop and saw the whole thing.
"Wow, another Sailor Senshi!"
***
Sailor Mars went back to the alley where she had left the black cat. When she got there she noticed it was gone.
"Great how do I change back to normal?"
"Place your hand on the jewel in the center of your ribbon and just focus on changing back."
Rei turned to see Gaijin standing behind her with a white cat on his shoulder.
"W..w..w..what?"
The cat on Gaijin's shoulder jump down to the ground and a golden crescent appeared on its forehead.
"He said, Place your hand on the jewel in the center of your ribbon and focus on changing back."
Rei looked at the cat and then at Gaijin.
"Gaijin did your cat just talk to me?"
"Yep."
"I don't see why you're so surprised, since I didn't give you your transformation pen Luna had to of."
"Luna? Was that the black cat with the same crescent on her forehead?"
"Yes, that was her."
"Rei you gonna change back or not?"
A bit shocked at hearing her name from Gaijin, Rei clutched the jewel in the center of her chest ribbon and concentrated on changing back to normal. While she did this Gaijin turned around. After being surrounded by flames once more she was now in her normal clothes.
"How did you know it was me? And how did you know what I had to do to change back?"
"Well…………….
"Lucky guess. Your name is the same as the one from the anime, and you knew who I was. As for how I knew what you needed to do to change back, it not something I want to talk about."
After he finished speaking Rei saw Gaijin walk away and his cat followed after him. The way Ranma talked about Gaijin he was supposed to be a normal guy, but since she met him, he seemed to hide who really he was. She started to wonder if the devil her grandpa told her visited the shrine yesterday was Gaijin. The description he gave her sure matched Gaijin right down to the cat on his shoulder, but even if he was shadowy he didn't seem evil.
***
After their classes where over for the day Ranma and Usagi first stopped by Usagi's dorm for her to drop off the books she didn't need and then they headed to Ranma's apartment.
"Why does Arimi have a class so late in the day?"
"You know her, she loves to learn."
"How come you two are going out if she prefers classes over you?
"Because you and Rei aren't my type."
Ramna was joking but Usagi probably couldn't tell. It was true that for now Arimi preferred her books to him, but he knew why. Arimi had a goal and she was determined to accomplish it. For now he was second in her life so she could reach that goal, but once she reached it he would be first forever more.
"What about Gohan?"
"Usagi! I am not interested in guys!"
Usagi took a bottle of water out of her bag and splashed it on Ranma.
"What about when you're a girl?"
Ranma gave an angry glare at Usagi. Thanks to his parent he had to attend high school as a girl, now that he was out of their house he wanted to spend as little time as a girl as possible.
"That's not funny Usagi. Maybe I won't give you those cooking lesson while we wait for Arimi and Rei."
"I'm sorry, Ranma, please I really need to learn how to cook otherwise Arimi and I will kill ourselves with our food."
***
At the Royal Crown Arcade a young man combed his hand though his short red hair. He turned away from a game and walked out of the Arcade. As he left he place a hat on his head with the picture of an upside down black crescent on its front.
"Twice now I have been beaten. "
Inside the Arcade the game he walked away from began to glow.

Lio's Corner
For right now I plan on the group finding out they're Senshi one at a time.
This is a revised version of chapter three, thanks to Hiraishin for pre-reading and editing.
One thing that Hiraishin pointed out was that Rei is using her Super S attack. This is becuase in this reality they will have all of there spells to begin with, there are no plans for any Super Senshi at this time.
