Usagi's Electrifying fight! Enter Sailor Mercury!

"DADDY!" Haru cried.

"AH!" Usaka cried.

"Elektrick!" The monster yelled. She was completely gray with a camera on her head, large pointy ears, and a screen in her stomach, flashing whatever she said. She seemed to be wearing a darker gray bathing suit to cover herself, and she had high-heeled boots of the same color. She had a power cord wrapped around her neck as a scarf.

Her pointed finger had settled towards Umino's right eye. A bright beam of light shot from it and straight into his eye. He screamed out as his glasses shattered.

"NO!" Haru yelled, covering her mouth.

"You… I won't let you!" Naru exclaimed, running at the monster and making several furious punches at her.

The monster slapped her with her free hand, and it sent her crashing against the back wall, unconscious.

"MOM!" Haru cried.

Usaka turned and ran into the kitchen. "Oh, man, oh, man, oh, man, oh, man, oh, MAN!" He cried, slipping in his socks along the floor and crashing against the wall. "Oh well…" He muttered, leaning back against the wall. "No time like the present, I guess."

Let's do it! Usagi cried.

"Right!" He yelled, readying himself. "Moon Eternal… Make-up!"

Haru hit the wall and slid down it. "Leave… my family… alone…" She said, struggling to get back up.

"Elektrick!" The monster said, swinging back the cord around her neck. It powered up with electricity.

Haru screamed.

"Not so fast!"

"Huh?" The monster turned in the direction of the kitchen.

Haru gasped, amazed.

"I am Sailor Moon, the pretty soldier in a sailor suit! -and in the name of the moon, I will punish you!" Usagi said, going into her usual stances.

Elektrick glared at her. "Sailor Moon is no match for Elektrick!"

Usagi! Usaka cried. This monster… looks really dangerous! Get her away from Haru and the others! He then gasped. Oh, no! Umino-san's crystal!

In her hand, she held a bright, glittering crystal of all different colors. "I've got to get that crystal!" Usagi exclaimed. "It could get damaged out in the open like that!"

Only until she eats it! Usaka yelled, a disgusted tone in his voice. Get her, Sailor Moon!

Elektrick swallowed Umino's beautiful crystal.

"You got it!" Usagi yelled, turning tail and heading out the front door. The angered Elektrick followed her, swinging her electric cord around in the air like a lasso.

She burst out into the front yard. Usagi--- LOOK OUT!

Sailor Moon turned around just as the electrified lasso came flying towards her. It slipped around her elbows and waist before she could dodge. She screamed out as electricity surged through her body.

Usaka could feel it too. He was also screaming. SAI-LOR-MOON! He cried, trying to regain composure. Of course, it hurt her a lot more. She was receiving the blow directly. I've-got-to-help-her…but… what do I do!

Sailor Moon's gloves began to singe and burn away where the electric lasso was place.

"Elektrick has won!"

"NOOO!" Usagi cried, trying to free herself to no avail.

"Aqua Rhapsody!"

"Huh?" Elektrick turned, and just as she did, she was pelted with a wave of ice that forced her to drop the lasso around Usagi. "AAAHGGH!" She screamed, as her electric abilities surged out of control.

Sailor Moon collapsed to her knees and panted.

Usagi, are you okay? Usaka asked, panting as well.

"Yes…" She muttered, wincing slightly.

"W-who did that!" Elektrick cried, moaning in pain.

Usagi looked up on the roof and gasped.

"I am Sailor Mercury! Soldier and defender of planet Mercury!" The woman on the roof said, standing with her hands on her hips.

Usaka couldn't help but silently remark on how beautiful she was with her shoulder-length, blue hair and deep saddphire eyes. She was dressed in sailor fuku, somewhat like Sailor Moon's, but nowhere near as advanced.

"Sailor Mercury!" Usagi said, teary-eyed.

"Elektrick will kill you!" She yelled, and her whole body became electrically charged.

Sailor Mercury jumped down in front of Sailor Moon. "Mercury… Aqua Rhapsody!" She yelled, trying again to silence the beast.

Elektrick knocked her attack away this time.

Sailor Mercury gasped. "Oh, no!"

"Sailor Mercury! Let me handle it from here!" Usagi said.

"What?" She turned around, and almost looked faint. "Sailor… Moon!"

Usagi nodded at her, smiling. "Hello again… Sailor Mercury…"

Sailor Mercury smiled, teary eyed. "You're up, Sailor Moon. Finish her off."

"Right," Usagi said, holding her tier up. "Sailor Mercury, cover me!" She exclaimed.

"I won't lose! I won't, I won't, I WON'T!" Elektrick yelled, powering up and sending a dozen power cords out of her back and towards Sailor Moon.

"You can't zap us if you can't see us!" Sailor Mercury yelled. "SHABON… SPRAY!" An icy mist filled the air, blocking the monster's view of the senshi.

"What? What is this!" Elektrick exclaimed, looking around blindly.

Sailor Moon held out her weapon. "Starlight… Honeymoon… Therapy Kiss!" She yelled, and pink and white light sprung from the top of it, engulfing the monster in feathers.

"NOOOO!" She cried, and became a shadow, then disappeared. Umino's crystal reappeared, floating gracefully in the air and shining brightly.

"Whew…" Usagi said, sitting down in the grass. "For a minute there, I thought I was a goner!"

Mercury dropped to her knees in front of her, then threw her arms around her. "Sailor Moon!" She sobbed. "-but… but how! It's a miracle!"

Usagi put her arms around her and gave her a big hug. "Ami-chan… It's all right…" She said.

Usagi-chan… This is that Sailor Mercury? The one you told me about?

"Mm," She nodded slightly.

She's so beautiful! Oh, man… I'd love to meet her in person…

"Sailor Moon!" Ami said, standing and wiping a tear from her eye. "I… I must leave you now. I have something I must do, but… Please, please! Meet me at um… the park near my old home tomorrow. Do you remember where it is?"

"Yes," Sailor Moon nodded. "Yes, I'll be there."

"All… all right then…" She sniffled a dabbed her eyes again. "I… I have an appointment to get to! I will see you then!" She yelled, turning and running off.

Hoo, baby… Usaka said. She is one hot mama… but on to more important matters. Let's get Umino-san's crystal back to him and check on Naru-san and Haru-chan.

"Yeah," Usagi said, tenderly taking the crystal into her hands.

"Here… " She said, placing the crystal back through Umino's right eye. "Umino, you'll be all right now."

"Woah…" He muttered, rubbing his eye. "That was wild…"

Sailor Moon stepped over to Naru and felt her wrist and neck. "She's all right, just unconscious."

Wh-what about Haru-chan? Usaka asked worriedly.

She kneeled down next to her, and as she placed her hand on her shoulder, her eyes opened.

Haru straightened her glasses and looked up. "Sailor… Moon… but… how did you… when did you…"

"I'll always be there when there is danger," She said, helping her up. "Now, go help your mother. I need to help your friend, Usaka, okay?"

"WHAT HAPPENED TO HIM!" She cried, covering her mouth.

"He's okay! He's fine! He just went to call the police. They should be here soon," She lied.

"Oh… okay…" She said, crawling over to her mom.

"HOO! That was an interesting doohickey, now wasn't it!" Umino cried, raising up and taking off his glasses, revealing his large, adorable, green eyes.

"Wow… in all my life, I never thought I'd see Umino's eyes…" Usagi murmured, amazed.

Yo, Usagi-chan! If they don't find me, you'll have a lot of explaining to do! Usaka reminded.

"All right, all right…" She muttered, running off into the kitchen and returning to her original form.

Usaka ran back out and ran to Haru, placing his hand on her back. "Are you all right?" He asked tenderly as she looked up at him and nodded. "I couldn't get through to the police… Damn this busy city…" He helped her up. "Can you walk?"

"Yes… yes, I can," She said.

"Umino-san! Are you all right?" He asked as he lifted Naru into the air.

"Fine and dandy, Usaka!" He said, smiling. "I'm going to need new glasses though…"

"You should really look into contacts, dude," He said, carrying Naru up the stairs towards her room.

"Usaka-" Haru began.

"Yes?" He asked, looking over his shoulder at her.

"Um… what happened to… Sailor Moon?…"

"She had to go somewhere," He said, smiling. "Probably to save someone else. She's wonderful like that. I've had the joy of meeting her before!" He let the subject rest before she could question him (as she often tended to do) and headed up the rest of the stairs, disappearing around the corner.

"I know you…" Umino said, standing next to her, grinning wolfishly.

"What, Daddy?" She asked, blushing slightly.

"You think it's hot when he walks up the stairs with no shirt on!" He laughed.

"DADDY! NO!" She yelled, bonking him on the head. "Maybe next time I'll just decide to stay at home!" She complained. "That's why I moved out in the first place! You wouldn't lay off of me about Usaka-kun!"

Usaka had personally volunteered to clean up Naru's living room, and though Haru helped, he got it done rather quickly. Naru and Umino had been bandaged up and treated, and they all had dinner together.

By the time the sun set, it was time for the two to leave.

"Come back and see us again!" Umino said, sporting his spare pair of swirl glasses.

"Yes, don't be shy to visit anytime! That means you too, Usaka!" Naru said.

"Yes, ma'am! I'll look into it!" He cried, waving goodbye as they walked down the drive together, towards the bus stop.

Naru sighed and put her arm around Umino. "I really hope that they end up together. Usaka's such a sweet boy with a lot of potential."

"Plus, our daughter totally has the hots for him!" Umino pointed out, and Naru giggled and nuzzled his hair. "By the way, what do you think happened to our television set?"

"Usaka…" Haru asked as the two of them stood at the bus stop. The sun was setting in the distance, casting a warm glow over the area.

"Hm?" He looked over at her.

"When did you… first meet Sailor Moon?…"

"Ah---" He knew he wasn't getting away with that one. "Yesterday… I was at the arcade… and someone got hurt."

"So… you were at the arcade…"

"Yeah, and I'm sorry I lied… It's just that… well… I didn't want you to be mad at me because I wanted to have a little fun, y'know?"

"I… I'm not angry," She said, hanging her head. "I just don't want you to keep suffering. The only way to get into college is to get good grades, and I know you can do it if you just concentrate."

"Well… I'm going through a lot right now… More than you know…Cram school is just starting to get in my way…"

The bus pulled up. The two climbed on and sat down next to each other.

"You're… dropping out of cram school?"

"No! No, I paid way too much to get in there… It's just, I think I need to slow down a little… If at all possible. Look, I think I'll just get a tutor, okay?"

"Well… if you think that's best…" She said.

"It's not the best thing I can do, but it is the only thing…" He sighed, his shoulders slumping. He then smiled, eyes closed and leaned his head back. "Hey, Haru-chan… You know what? I bet Sailor Moon is the moon princess."

"What makes you think that?" She asked.

"A little rabbit told me…" He said.

"You're so strange."

He laughed. "You're right, I am."

The bus headed off into the setting sun.

(A/N: Dang, how'd this chapter end up so much shorter than the last one? I guess I could have put some of the last one on this one, but, oh, well. Yay! Sailor Mercury's here! She's one of my favorite's so I'm very happy indeed! Ooh, and Usaka seems to have the hots for her! Sounds interesting I hope. Stay tuned for next update! Ja!)
