:Chapter One:
Usagi leaned her head against the car seat as they drove to the airport, her parents talking animatedly in the front seats. Her parents had said they were moving back to Japan for awhile, which probably meant a year or two. She really didn't have to move with them since she was almost nineteen, but she had wanted to move back to Japan for a long time and take a break before heading to college.
Usagi smiled as she remembered the scouts, she wondered what they were all doing at this moment. Last time she had checked Ami had gotten a scholarship to some prestigious medical school in Germany a couple of years ago because she graduated early, and Minako got spotted by a modeling scout and ended up signing a contract with them, but as for the others she had no idea. Mamoru lived in America like her but they decided to be just friends two years ago since they rarely saw each other. Usagi was excited to meet Ken again though; she hadn't seen him in a longtime. She wondered if he still played football (soccer) every night like he used to do when they were little or if his dreams came true and was actually a professional now.
A lot, in her opinion, had changed about herself, she still loved food but she wasn't as clumsy as before and she seemed to have matured a little but that didn't totally prevent her from once in awhile klutz attacks.
'This is going to take forever, but it will be worth it', Usagi thought as she loaded her luggage up into the glove compartment above her head on the plane.
She didn't know how long the flight actually was but she remembered that it was long enough for her to start reading an old textbook given to her courtesy of Ms. Haruna, and stuff like that only happened in desperate situations.
Usagi thought back on how much her life had changed in almost the last eleven years, from her real family being murdered to getting a new family, finding out she's Sailormoon, then moving to America then back to Japan to live there again, could her life be anymore hectic and confusing.
Usagi mood suddenly darkened as she thought of her real family, she could still hear their screams as she hid in the closet that her little brother stuffed her into. She didn't know what happened to him because his body was never found but she suspected they kidnapped him, killed him, or dumped him somewhere. A tear slid down her cheek. She loved her family so much, why did her father have to be in politics? she didn't understand. Usagi thought back to all the times she and her little brother played hide and seek and all the family picnics they had together. Her little brother was always there for her, as she was always there for him.
' I have to move on, it been eleven years now, I have a new family now, parents and a brother who I love dearly and who loves me too' Usagi thought, hopefully trying to raise her own spirits.
When they had adopted her they made her feel at home right away as if she was one of their own which made it easier to fit in. It only took about three months until she felt like they were a real family, she even had daily sister and brother spats where they would fight over the remote or who got front seat, in which she always won. Usagi eyes began to droop as she looked out the window, it had only been an hour and she was already falling asleep.
'oh well, I've never been one to refuse a nap' Usagi thought before she closed her eyes and drifted off into sub-consciousness
"Where are we supposed to pick your family up again?" Yohji asked, parking his car and walking along side Ken as they entered the airport entrance.
"At luggage claim (A/N: Is it called luggage claim or pickup? hhmmmm o.O) somewhere, their plane is supposed to arrive in an hour or so" Ken stated.
"You owe me big time for this", Yohji said, running a hand through his honey brown hair.
"Well, you just happened to have a car, and I can't drive them back on my motorcycle, they wouldn't be able to fit, so live with it" Ken replied.
"Well, you could have asked our "almighty" leader, I had a date tonight you know" Yohji complained again.
"right, like Aya wants to play chauffeur for my family", Ken retorted as they sat by luggage claim outside the entrance to the hopefully soon arriving plane of his family. "It shouldn't be long anyways, I'm sure you can find something to keep you entertained" Ken said.
"Well, then it's going to have to be very time consuming, ne?" Yohji pointed at the schedule on the T.V. hanging from the ceiling and saw his family's plane number blinking 'delayed'.
"Great", was all that Ken said before slumping in the nearest chair.
"We'll be arriving shortly, so please enjoy the rest of your flight, thank you", Usagi woke with a start as she heard the lady on the intercom speak in a very weird and unusually pleasant voice.
'How does it happen that every voice that ever talked on the intercoms on planes happens to sound the same on every flight I've ever been on?' Usagi questioned herself in her head though not expecting an answer.' Maybe they have training classes for talking the same way, just like the people on the news have those monotone voices', Usagi pondered but her thoughts were interrupted by Ikuko, her mother, "honey, are you okay? We'll be arriving soon", Ikuko said looking over her seat to Usagi.
"I'm fine mom, just a little sleepy, that's all" Usagi replied, smiling slightly hoping it would get the attention off herself, but the truth was she was actually nervous about seeing Ken again.
She hadn't seen him in so long she wondered how much he could have changed in four years. She wanted to ask him so many questions to what had been going on around him and wondered what kind of life he could be living now and then there was always the scouts...
"We have just arrived. You can now unbuckle your seat belts, I hope you enjoyed this airline and have a nice day!" the cheery voice of the woman on the intercom spoke.
Usagi got up from her seat, got her carry-on and followed her parents out of the plane following them to luggage claim.
"Ken is supposed to pick us up here", Kenji said, pointing toward where everyone else was going to get their luggage.
"Does Ken know that we aren't just visiting but actually moving here?" Usagi asked.
"Oh, we haven't told him yet, it's a surprise", Ikuko answered, her hand waving and dismissing the fact as if it were nothing.
Usagi only sighed; her parents always thought it was fun to surprise people for some very odd reason. Looking up ahead, Usagi tried to pin point through the waiting crowd of who could be Ken but found that she had no idea what he would look like now. Usagi looked on as her parents who didn't seem to be looking for him walked towards the line of luggage searching for theirs.
'I guess I'll just have to find him on my own somehow' Usagi thought, 'couldn't he have at least brought a sign?' Usagi thought. After about five minutes of searching around for him, just as she was about to stop looking and join her parents she heard someone call her name. Turning around she saw a tall man with sandy hair who was smiling at her oddly and beside him she knew it was Ken, she could recognize his messy brown hair and goofy grin and besides he was waving at her and knew her name, what other evidence did she need?.
"Ken!" was the name Usagi would have said but her mother, Ikuko beat her to it. Ikuko rushed past Usagi and took Ken into a death grip hug. Usagi chuckled as it looked like he was about to suffocate and walked over, "it's been so long, how are you sweetie!" Ikuko asked finally coming out of her hug.
"Just fine mom, how about you guys?" Ken asked shakily still regaining his loss of breath.
"Oh, we're just great! Oh, it's been so long, you look so grown up! My little baby!" after saying this Usagi could literally see stars in her eyes as she held her hands to her face, which caused Usagi to sweatdrop profusely.
Ken blushed and scratched his head, "yeah, anyways, this is my friend Yohji, he and I work together" Ken said pointing towards the man beside him.
Usagi looked up to face Yohji to find him smiling at her, "uh, hi nice to meet you... Yohji" Usagi said cheerily holding out her hand to shake his.
"The pleasure is all mine", Yohji said and with this took her hand and kissed it, causing Usagi to blush uncontrollably.
"Oh, what a gentleman, and handsome too, you always did pick good friends Ken" Ikuko exclaimed. Attention now on Yohji, who had stopped kissing Usagi hand but was still holding it, unaware to Usagi.
"That is so kind of you to say Mrs. Hidaka, I'm very pleased to meet you as well" Yohji said, offering her a charming smile, now causing Ikuko to blush. Ken looked ready to kill Yohji, but Kenji beat him to it.
"Who are you and what are you doing holding my daughter's hand?" said Kenji stepping up behind Ikuko and glaring at Yohji. Usagi quickly pulled her hand away while Yohji continued to smile.
"He's a friend dad, and he was just greeting Usagi, chill out" Ken said, sweatdropping. Kenji stopped glaring at Yohji but continued to eye him suspiciously, he was always able to tell if a man couldn't be trusted and this time was no exception.
"Well, I think we better get going, and register into the nearest hotel, ne?" Usagi said, changing the subject.
"Right, right dear, but first we want to know everything about what happened to Ken and who all his friends are and where he works..." Ikuko continued to ramble as they all headed towards to the car.
Usagi looked up, as Yohji parked the car-outside a flower shop? 'Where are we?' Usagi thought looking up and seeing a sign read Koneko No Sumi Ie, 'Kitty in the house? Weird name for a flower shop' Usagi thought, as they arrived at their destination.
"Why are we here?" Usagi asked curiously.
"Haven't you been listening honey? This is where Ken works with his friend Yohji, oh and two other young boys... I forgot their names... something like Ayan Fujymina and Omit something" Ikuko said who looked like she was trying to figure out their names still as they walked in. Usagi spotted a red-haired man behind the counter, 'he's pretty cute' Usagi thought as she studied him. Looking more around her, she saw a bunch of school girls chatting away to each other as they fondled the flowers.
"Roses!" Usagi exclaimed running over to a bunch of white roses neatly displayed for all to see.
"I'll buy them for you if you want", a voice whispered into her ear from right behind her, Usagi jumped, glanced back and saw Yohji smiling at her. Usagi blushed crimson which only caused Yohji to laugh.
"What's so funny?" Usagi said annoyed, she didn't like it when people laughed at her when she had no idea why; it made her feel left out.
"Oh nothing, you just look cute when you blush and I find it amusing, that's all" Yohji said.
"oh, ok..." Usagi muttered blushing even more. Why was she blushing, what was wrong with her? Well all she knew for sure though was that this guy was definitely a charmer, 'I better keep my eye on him', Usagi warned herself.
"This is Aya and this is Omi" Ken stated catching everyone's attention, pointing to the crimson-haired man and then to a younger looking boy just walking in through the back door.
"nice to meet you.", Usagi exclaimed stretching out her hand to Aya, but he only glared back, causing Usagi to sweatdrop and then try the same thing to Omi, in which he politely responded.
"Well, it was nice meeting you all but my family and I better be checking into our hotel. No need to worry about driving us, we'll just take the bus. We are really tired and need some rest even though it is only afternoon, come on honey!" Ikuko stated about to leave.
"I'm not really tired, I slept a lot on the plane. Can you just leave me here; there are a few things I have to do." Usagi asked, not wanting to go back to the hotel so early especially when she still had time to visit old friends.
"Of course honey, make sure you have a ride, maybe one of Ken's nice young friends can give you one back", Ikuko suggested.
"I'd be glad to give her a ride whenever she needs one Mrs. Hidaka" Yohji said stepping in. Now was his chance to get near Usagi without Ken or her father in his way.
Yohji saying this caused Kenji to glare at him again and was about to say something and Ikuko pushed him out the door, "thank you Yohji, it was nice meeting you all, bye!" she said as she left.
"I'll walk from here, where I'm going is not far, I'll come back when I need a ride, thanks Yohji, bye Ken" Usagi said.
"no problem, tenshi, just make sure you're back before eight, that's when we close", he winked then waved her off as she left to visit the scouts
Usagi walked down the crowded side walk, finally coming to her destination.
"The Crown Arcade", Usagi whispered as she pushed open the doors, making her way towards the counter, she spotted Motoki making a sundae for a couple of kids, ice cream already smeared on their faces not to mention their clothes. "Motoki!" Usagi exclaimed, at this Motoki almost dropped the sundae before looking up to see none other than Usagi, shock appeared on his face as he recognized her.
"Usagi! Where have you been? When did you get here?" Motoki asked, giving the sundae to the kid with the almond hair.
"I've moved back" Usagi stated cheerily, grabbing a stool by the counter.
"It has been so long, how have you been?", "fine, I've really missed everyone though..." Usagi said gazing around. "This place hasn't changed at all".
"yeah, well I'm too lazy to do anything to it and everyone seems to like it how it is so... Are you and Mamoru still together?" Motoki asked changing the subject.
Usagi shook her head, "We decided to be friends a long time ago. Hey, Motoki, is Rei still here?" Usagi asked.
"Yeah, she still working at the shrine and taking care of her grandfather." Motoki answered.
"Great, well I have to go, I'll see you later, and we can catch up then, bye." Usagi said speeding off and out the door only to run back in and ask for a triple fudge sundae on the go, causing Motoki to laugh, 'some people never change'.
