As I said in the last part I was going more with the Japanese version of the story. I got very little feedback on whether I should change the girls' names to Japanese. However I am changing the names of the Inner Senshi, their husbands, and Rini's to the Japanese names. So Rini is now Usagi since she is no longer little. But please give me your input on what you think about the girls receiving Japanese names. I've only gotten two opinions so far and they were opposing.
The site is under heavy construction but it is being worked on. Please be patient.

Amy - Ami Raye - Rei Lita - Makoto Mina - Minako Greg - Ryo Chad - Yuichiro Ken - Shinozuki
Young Visitors Part Eight: Horror Movies and Destroyed Furniture By Angel Raye
Ami glanced into the living room to see what the girls were up too. Ariel and Marina were both reading. Melody was watching the clock; waiting for time she could leave to go spend the night with Jasmine in the Pluto chambers. "You know if you picked up a book like the other two then the time would go faster," Ami advised startling Melody out of her concentration.
"I know but I really don't like reading very much," Melody admitted.
"How can she be a Mizuno and not like to read?" Ami asked herself as she went back into the kitchen. Since Ariel had so far been behaving during the Spring Break, Ami decided to reward her. So she was baking Ariel's favorite cookies. They were almost ready.
Suddenly a pair of arms went around her. Ami jumped and turned around. Ryo was standing there. "What a nice surprise," Ami exclaimed. "You're home early"
"I have an even bigger surprise for you," Ryo had an impish smile on his face. "Guess what I have in my pocket"
"Oh I don't know," Ami giggled.
Ryo pulled two tickets out of his pocket. "Two tickets to see 'The Phantom of the Opera' at Crystal Hall tonight"
"How did you get these?" Ami squealed in excitement. "They've been sold out for weeks"
"Let's just say I pulled some favors," Ryo replied. "I thought we could go out for a romantic dinner first and then go to the show"
"I'd love too," Ami agreed. "Melody is spending the night with Jasmine so that will just leave Ariel for Marina to baby-sit. I'll give Ariel a stern talking to before we leave to make sure she behaves"
"Well put on your prettiest dress," Ryo told her. "I want my best girl looking gorgeous tonight"
"I know exactly what I am going to wear," Ami replied as she kissed Ryo. She looked at the tickets in her hand. "This is going to be great!"
Makoto was getting dinner ready for the girls. She and Shinozuki were going out to eat with some old friends of his so the girls would be taking care of themselves with Violet in charge. "Are you sure about leaving Violet in charge?" Shinozuki asked. "Maybe we should check with Palla or Ves"
"You know Ves has the flu and Palla is going out with some friends tonight," Makoto reminded him. "Besides Violet is thirteen and Daisy is almost twelve. Neither one of them need sitters anymore. They can both keep an eye on Lily"
"I know but Violet has the common sense of a flea," Shinozuki pointed out. "I just hope nothing terrible happens"
"Nothing will," Makoto assured him. "Because Violet knows that if there are any problems then she will get into big trouble"
"I hope you're right," Shinozuki sighed as he picked up the paper.
"Mommy, you look so pretty," Ariel cried as Ami walked into the living room wearing a blue gown.
"Why thank you Darling," Ami replied as she sat down next to her daughter. She gave her a stern look. "Now remember what we talked about? You are to mind Marina and do as she tells you to do"
"Do I really have to look after her tonight?" Marina asked in a sulky voice. She had not been too happy when she found out she had to watch Ariel tonight. "Remember what happened last time"
"Of course we do which is why Ariel will lose most of her privileges if she puts one toe out of line," Ami replied. She looked down at her daughter. "Am I right"
"Yes Ma'am," Ariel murmured as she glared at Marina. Marina glared back. Ami turned to her future granddaughter. "If you have any problems, Michiru is right down the hall. Give her a call and she will properly deal with Ariel." Ariel immediately looked alarmed. Her mentor's punishments were sometimes far worse than Ami's.
"I'll help too," Moonbeam added.
"She doesn't listen to you," Marina reported. A sweat drop appeared on the kitten's head.
"All right Marina that's enough," Ami gently scolded. She had long ago concluded that Marina had very little patience. She looked down at Ariel again. "Do you understand everything we talked about? I don't want to come home and find Marina locked up again"
"I'll behave Mommy," Ariel replied as she wrapped her small arms around Ami's neck and planted a kiss on her cheek. "I love you"
"I love you too but you will still get a spanking if there's any trouble tonight," Ami reminded her.
Ryo came into the room. "Are we ready?" he asked.
"We are," Ami replied. She got up and gave each girl a kiss. "Now call Michiru if there are any problems," she told Marina. To Ariel she sternly said, "Behave"
"Yes Mommy," Ariel replied making up her mind that she had better behave tonight.
Once Ami and Ryo were gone Marina pulled a video out of her bag. "Violet loaned me this today," she told Ariel. "And I am going to watch it"
"What movie is it?" Ariel asked as she scooted over next to Marina.
"Vampires in London," Marina replied. "It's a scary movie so you might want to watch TV in your parents' room"
"I want to watch "Vampires in London" too," Ariel stated. "I won't be scared"
"Are you sure?" Marina asked doubtfully.
"Positive," Ariel replied. "Besides we made a deal that night of Usagi's party so I want to watch that movie"
"Very well," Marina muttered reluctantly as she put the movie in the VCR.
"All right girls my cell phone will be on if you need anything," Makoto told the girls, as she and Shinozuki were getting ready to leave.
"We'll be fine Makoto-mama," Violet assured her.
"Yes," Daisy added. "This isn't the first time we've stayed alone"
"I know," Makoto sighed. "But I still worry"
"You can call any of the other Senshi if you need anything," Shinozuki added. He took Makoto's arm. "We need to get going now"
"All right," Makoto replied. She kissed each girl. "We won't be too late so Lily you can stay up until we get home"
"Great," Lily exclaimed.
"Have fun," Daisy and Violet both called as Makoto and Shinozuki walked out the door.
"I'm going to get my teddy bear kit," Lily informed them as she dashed back to Daisy's room. "I want to work on that teddy bear I'm making"
"Well I'm in charge tonight so I get to decide what we watch on television," Violet declared.
"I don't think so," Daisy retorted. "Don't let being in charge get to your head'
"Not like you do," Violet snapped.
"Why you," Daisy grabbed a cushion and threw it at Violet. Instead of hitting Violet it hit the lamp on the end table by the couch. The lamp fell to the floor and shattered into pieces. Daisy gave a gasp of horror.
"I didn't do it," Lily shouted from the bedroom.
"Daisy you're in big trouble," Crescent stated as he looked at the broken lamp.
Marina was curled up on the couch watching the movie. She had an afghan covering her up. Underneath the afghan was a small figure hiding in fear. "Ariel why don't you go into your parents room and watch TV?" Marina suggested. "You're obviously scared to death of all this"
"No, I'm not," Ariel lied peeking her head out from under the afghan.
"Sure," Marina scoffed as she turned off the movie.
"Why did you do that?" Ariel asked in alarm.
"Because you're scared," Marina replied,
"But I have to see how the movie turned out," Ariel wailed.
"Why?" Marina asked.
"I need to make sure the vampires die," Ariel told her.
"They do die," Marina reassured her.
"But how do you know?" Ariel asked. "You turned the movie off. I need to make sure they don't come here"
"They're in London," Marina patiently explained. "That's a long way from Crystal Tokyo"
"But they could still come," Ariel cried. "I need to make sure"
Marina's patience had ended. "Look," she said getting up from the couch. "The vampires aren't here and they aren't going to come here. Now go to bed"
Ariel let out a loud high-pitched cry. "But I'm scared of the vampires," she wailed.
"Don't cry," Marina cried in alarm. "They aren't coming. I promise you"
"I want Mommy," Ariel cried louder.
"Please stop," Marina pleaded. "If you stop crying I'll let you have some ice cream"
"With strawberry topping and whipped cream," Ariel asked eagerly switching the tears off.
With strawberry topping and whipped cream," Marina muttered realizing that Ariel had gotten the best of her again. She led Ariel into the kitchen and started getting bowls down. Suddenly there was a thump heard.
"What was that?" Ariel asked in fright.
"It's a windy night," Marina replied. "There's that tree right outside the window. It probably hit the window"
"Or maybe it's a vampire," Ariel wailed.
"It's not a vampire," Marina assured her.
"How do you know?" Ariel asked.
Before Marina could answer another loud howl from the wind was heard followed by another thump. Both girls flew out of the kitchen heading toward Ryo and Ami's room.
Daisy sat anxiously on the couch watching Violet fix the lamp. Lily sat on the coffee table. "Are you sure you can fix this?" Daisy asked. "I'll be in big trouble if it doesn't get fixed"
"Relax," Violet assured her. "This is the strongest glue there is"
"How do you know?" Crescent asked.
"Because it can fix anything," Violet replied. "At least that's what the commercial said"
"Oh that will comfort her," Lily muttered.
"Look," Violet said. "I'll be in just as much trouble if this doesn't get fixed because I'm in charge tonight. So I want this fixed as much as Daisy does"
"And I do know that Gloria has used this type of glue to fix the vase she broke one time," Lily added. "Aunt Minako never found out"
"I rest my case," Violet declared. She carefully glued the last piece. "There. You can't even see the crack"
Daisy and Crescent peered closely at it. "She's right," Crescent exclaimed. "You can't tell it's been broken"
"I can't see any cracks or glue," Daisy added. "Violet you're a genius"
"Well I don't think I'm a genius," Violet said modestly. "Very smart maybe but not a genius"
"Well we had better clean this up," Daisy said as she picked up the pieces of paper around the table. "Come on Lily. Give us a hand"
Lily started to get up but found that she was stuck. "I can't," she exclaimed.
"Why not?" Daisy asked in an annoyed voice.
"I'm stuck," Lily replied.
"What do you mean you're stuck," Violet demanded.
"I mean I can't move," Lily shouted.
Violet and Daisy each took one of Lily's arms and pulled her. She didn't budge from the table. "She really is stuck," Daisy exclaimed.
"Some of the glue must have gotten on the table and Lily sat on it," Crescent concluded.
"Now what are we going to do?" Daisy asked. "Mom and Dad will kill us when they get home and find Lily glued to the table"
Violet thought fast. She knelt down in front of Lily. "All right Lily," she said. "Put your arms around my neck and hang on. I'm going to tug on you really hard and hopefully you'll come off"
"All right," Lily said as she put her arms around Violet's neck. Violet gave a very hard pull and Lily was ripped off the table. But on the seat of her jeans was part of the top layer of the table that had come off with her.
"Now what are we going to do?" Daisy groaned as she looked at the ruined coffee table.
Ariel sat on her parents' bed clutching her favorite teddy bear with Moonbeam beside her. She was keeping an eye on the door, which was closed, and had a chair propped against it to keep everyone out. When there was a knock Ariel nearly jumped out of her skin. "Who is it?" She shouted.
"It's Marina," Marina called from the other side. "Let me in"
"How do I know you're Marina?" Ariel asked. "You could be a vampire disguised as Marina to come in and eat my blood"
"Ariel there is no vampire here," Marina yelled in an exasperated voice. "Now let me in"
"Just let her in Ariel," Moonbeam ordered. "It's Marina"
"But it could be a vampire trying to trick me," Ariel protested.
"If I'm not a vampire then you are in this room all by yourself without anyone to protect you from vampires that could come in through the window," Marina's voice called. Ariel immediately got up and ran to the door. She opened it. Marina came in. They quickly closed the door and propped the chair back up. "All right," said Marina. "I've set up booby traps all over the chambers. I've also blocked the doorway with the couch. No vampire can get us"
"So what do we do now?" Ariel asked.
"We wait for your parents to get home," Marina replied.
Suddenly the wind blew and a tree banged against the window. Ariel and Marina along with Moonbeam dove into Ryo and Ami's bed and pulled the covers over their heads.
Lily entered the living room in her pajamas. "I feel a lot better now," she announced. "Is Violet back yet"
"Not yet," Daisy replied anxiously.
Just then Violet entered carrying some kind of machine with her. "I've solved our problem," she declared brightly.
"What is that?" Daisy shrieked.
"It's a sander," Violet replied. "I borrowed it from one of the gardeners"
"And how does that solve your problem?" Crescent asked.
"We sand the whole tabletop down and smooth out the tear," Violet explained. "Then we can paint the top and no one will know the difference"
"Forget it," Daisy demanded. "Mom and Dad will never be fooled by this"
"Of course they will," Violet assured her as she placed the sander on the damaged part of the table. She flicked the switch. Nothing happened.
"Well it won't work so we can scratch that idea," Crescent muttered.
"No wonder," Violet exclaimed. "It's not plugged in." She walked over to the outlet and plugged the machine in. The machine immediately began working.
"Turn it off," Daisy shrieked as the machine sanded a hole right through the table. And fell through. Violet hastily yanked at the plug, which started to knock over the table with the repaired lamp on it.
"Watch out," Lily shouted. Daisy dove forward to catch the lamp. She grabbed the lamp and landed on the small end table. The table broke under her weight and the lamp flew out of her hands and shattered.
"Now you are really in trouble," Crescent groaned as Daisy picked herself back up.
"Ryo that was a wonderful show," Ami sighed as they arrived at their chambers. "Thank you so much"
"Anything for my beautiful wife," Ryo replied as he drew Ami into his arms and kissed her. After the kiss they opened the door only to find that it wouldn't open. "What's this?" he exclaimed.
"Is something wrong with the door?" Ami asked.
"No I think something is blocking it on the other side," Ryo replied. He gave the door a hard push and forced it open. They found that the couch had been moved in front of the door to keep people out. They also saw Ariel's large toys all over the place.
"It looks like a hurricane went through here," Ami exclaimed. "Ariel knows better than to leave her toys all over the place like this"
"I think they were trying to keep someone out," Ryo concluded. "And then set out booby traps just in case"
Ami carefully walked through the mess to the television. She picked up the case to a video off it. "Well no wonder," she stated. "They were watching "Vampires in London." They must have gotten scared to death"
"So where are they?" Ryo wondered.
"I would guess in our room," Ami replied. "After all that is where Ariel always goes when she is scared." They headed over to their room. Ryo had to push hard at the door to get it open because the chair was blocking it. An unusual sight greeted them on the other side. Both Marina and Ariel were lying asleep on the bed. Moonbeam was curled up between them. Cloves of garlic surrounded them.
"Look at that," Ami stated. "Cloves of garlic to keep vampires away"
"And look at that," Ryo added seeing what Marina had in her hands. "Marina made a cross out of wooden spoons"
"But why does Ariel have a piece of steak in her hands," Ami asked recognizing the package she had picked up from the grocery store earlier today"
"Don't you know?" Ryo asked. "That's the stake to drive through the heart." Ami and Ryo burst out laughing. "I'll wake Marina up and send her to bed," Ryo laughed.
"And I'll tuck Ariel into ours," Ami chuckled knowing that Ariel was not going to sleep well on her own tonight.
In the Jupiter chambers the three girls had managed to carefully piece the table and lamp back together. "All right," Violet said breathlessly because they had rushed. "Tomorrow morning we'll go get a new coffee table and a new end table. One of the gardeners said he'd take us. We'll properly fix the lamp before Makoto-mama and Shinozuki-papa wake up. Then they will never know what happens"
"They're coming," Daisy hissed from the front door.
"Quick Lily sit over the hole," Violet commanded. Lily hastily sat over the hole on the coffee table. Violet and Daisy sat on the couch. The door opened and Makoto and Shinozuki came through.
"Hi girls," Makoto greeted them. "Sorry we're late. Dinner ran longer then we thought it would"
"Oh that's okay," Daisy replied. "Did you have fun"
"We had a great time," Shinozuki stated. "How were things here"
"Oh just fine," Violet said with a fixed smile on her face.
"Good," Makoto replied. "Well we're going on to bed and I want all of you in bed in ten minutes"
"Yes Ma'am," Lily said. Makoto gave each girl a kiss goodnight. Shinozuki tossed his keys onto the end table. It collapsed and the lamp broke again. Lily gave a squeal and fell through the hole. Makoto and Shinozuki glared at the girls.
"So," Violet stated casually as a sweat drop appeared on her head. "What did you have for dinner?"
End of part eight. I'll let you use your imaginations about the consequences are.
