A new episode. A new boyfriend. A scene in this episode was from Fruits Basket. I'm sorry, I'm using so many sources. But now, it still seems all right. The only one that doesn't have a boyfriend yet...Yup, that's right. It's Lita!! Here we go!

Episode A Chef's Dream

Lonliness can be a harsh thing, especially when surrounded by happy people. Unheard, unseen, unspoken...it's difficult to go on. But some out there are able to continue...for a while.

Lita imagined what the others were doing. Raye would have been scolding Chad, Mina and Jerry went rehearsing, and Amy and Greg would be studying. She lightly smiled at the thought of them, but still held some depression.

Anna "Lita?"

Her smile faded as she saw Anna coming up to her. Lita was about the ask her what she was doing there, but it would have been stupid to wonder why she was in a grocery store.

Lita "Anna...hi."

Anna "Hey. What's up?"

Lita "Nothing much. I'm just getting some food. You?"

Anna "Yeah, smae here. Aoshi's busy at Cherry Hill Temple..."

As Anna explained, Lita's thoughts drifted again. Anna and Aoshi were busy as well.

Lita (Everyone's...happy.)

Anna "...So, yeah."

Lita snapped back once she finished explaining.

Lita "Oh...cool."

Anna noticed the tone in her voice. She suddenly realized what was wrong and wished she didn't speak.

Anna (I'm sorry...) "...Hey, don't wear a long face."

Lita "Huh?"

Anna "You look so gloomy. Don't be like Greg and the others. You'll find happiness someday."

Lita "What do you mean?"

Anna gave her and incisive look.

Anna "You feel alone, don't you? You feel left out?"

Lita's face changed its color. If everyone found out, they'll be worried about her. She began sweating and waving her hands whimsically.

Lita "W-what are you talking about? Of course not! I feel fine!"

She began to back away from Anna.

Anna "I'm sorry if we're making you feel this way."

Lita "No! No! It's all right! Forget about it! It's my fault!"

Lita backed away some more as Anna looked down. Anna felt guilty for making her feel lonesome. She was oblivious to Lita's pain...only worrying about the "important" mission. Anna looked back up at Lita.

Anna "Lita, I'm-"

Her eyes widened as she looked past Lita. As her friend backed up some more, a large swaying stack of groceries were held by a young man. Lita remained oblivious to the towering groceries behind her.

Anna "Look-!!"

Lita felt a bump behind her as she spun around. She caught sight of the colossal stack of groceries and stared gaping.

Man "Oh, sorry."

The man's face was blocked by the stack of groceries. Lira wondered why he was carrying all of that.

Lita "Do you know you could use a grocery cart to carry those? It's very dangerous."

Man "...Oh. I was too occupied on getting certain things that I forgot."

Anna and Lita shook their heads. It was quite humorous to see someone who doesn't know what to do.

Anna "I'm gonna go get a cart for him. I'll be right back."

Lita "Okay."

As Anna left, Lita decided to try and help the unfortunate soul.

Lita "Just wait. Then you can rest those arms of yours."

Man "Oh...well..."

She saw the pile in his arms sway back and forth farther. A can almost slid off from the top. Lita quickly inched to the side, expecting what was about to happen.

Man "Thank you for the help."

The man tipped forward to bow politely.
CRASH!!
Bags fell as the food cans dispersed and rolled away. Every item slid out of his hands while he stared in shock. Lita stood amazed at the man's lack of common sense.

Man "Uh-oh. My bad."

Anna neared the aisle with a shopping cart in hand.

Anna (Poor guy. I hope this helps.)

When she was about to turn, Anna saw a can of soup roll in front of her. She stopped it with her foot and picked it up.

Anna (...Did the guy...did he really...that clumsy...?)

"HA HA HA HA!!!"

Anna almost dropped the can after hearing the sudden burst of laughter. It's source seemed to be coming from the area ahead. Slowly, she crept closer to the aisle as she stole a peek.

Lita began to form tears as she continuously laughed her throat out. The man and Lita knelt before the fallen groceries and tried to clean up the unfortunate mess.

Lita "That was hilarious!! You had no idea what you were doing!"

The man kept glancing at Lita from time to time. Anna took notice and stepped back, thinking of a possibility.

Anna (Was he...blushing for a moment!?)

Lita and the man stood back up after collecting the fallen items.

Man "Thank you for helping. I apologize for this."

Lita "No problem. I'm Lita."

Man "I'm Jason."

Lita looked at his visage for she wasn't able to see it behind the huge stack. Strands of dirty blond hair covered his head. Purple eyes gleamed with beauty and radiance. He was relatively tall, the same height as Lita. There were acutal people in the world as tall as her.

Lita/Jason "Uhh..."

They quickly blushed and looked away from each other. Anna groaned as she watched the "couple".

Anna (This is getting nowhere...but I shouldn't interfere. Don't screw up, Lita.)

She tried to stay quiet as Lita and Jason rekindled their conversation.

Lita "So...why do you have all this? Running low on supplies?"

Jason "Actually, running low on ingredients. Lately, I've been trying to cook for myself, but it's been take-out for a few weeks now."

Lita "Really? Cooking's not that hard. All you really need to know are the ingredients and measurements."

Jason suddenly smiled and made Lita blush. She smiled back, confirming a firm friendship.

Anna (Way more than friendship.)

He finished gathering his items and looked back at Lita.

Jason "S-See you later."

He frantically went past an immobile Lita and towards the front of the store. Jason looked back once more and hoped she would come. But she didn't. He paid for his things while he hung his head and walked out the store.

Lita "...See ya."

She miserably walked towards the deli section and sighed.

Anna "Nice laugh."

Lita almost jumped out of her skin. She looked behind to see Anna cocking an eyebrow with her arms crossed.

Lita "A-Anna!"

Anna (sighing) "You should at least asked him out. He eemed pretty nice. Absent-minded, but nice."

Lita lightly smiled and looked down.

Lita "Yeah..."

Anna shook her head. Lita had a chance...and it slipped away from her.

Anna "Come on. Let's go."

Anna helped her friend out the store. She hoped that Lita would end the moping of being lonely.

Anna (Maybe next time.)

As the girls walked out of the store, they notied Jason only a few yards away. He walked up to a public desk with a strange man with long orange hair. On the desk, there was a variety of food samples.

Anna "Hey, it's Jason."

Lita "What's going on?"

They stood their ground as Jason approached the man.

Man "Excuse me, sir. Do you like to cook and want to become a chef?"

Jason "Why, yes. I'm learning myself. Not really the best chef, but I'm not giving up."

The man sinisterly chuckled. Jason took notice and felt his heart skip a beat. The man stood up and raised his arm.
WHAM!!
The table and food flew to the street. Jason stepped back with fright. A sudden tapestry rolled down in fron of the man, changing him into a familiar face. Tiger's Eye!!

Jason "Hey, what's your problem!?"

Tiger "Problem? My problem is that I need Pegasus!"

Jason "Huh?"

Tiger "One..."

The red board cae up and kept Jason from going further.

Anna "Ah!!"

Lita "Jason!!"

Tiger "Two..."

Cuffs appeared at his wrists and ankles. The sturggle that he attempted was useless. The girls raced to get the in tim, but Tiger's Eye finished first.

Tiger "Three!!"

Like all the others, Jason didn't expect what happened next. Eyes snapped wide open, piercing pain, and a cacophonous outburst helped him express the feeling of his mirror emerging from his body. The divine mirror sparkled with purity as it gleamed in the enemy's eye.

Lita "Oh, no!!"

Anna "Lita, transform!!"

"JUPITER CRYSTAL POWER!!"
"SOLAR CRYSTAL POWER!!"

The spheres seemed faster than before and the lightning was more powerful as it crashed down. The upgrade from Pegasus was indeed fortuitous because their sailor suits included clear shoulder pads and all new attacks.

As Tiger's Eye approached the revealed mirror, Jason quivered with fear and pain. His dreams of becoming a chef have been desecrated, and now he's left unprotected wen the stranger forced his head into the mirror.

Jason "AAH!!"

Tiger "Pegasus! Yoo-hoo! Come out, come out!"

After a thorough search, Tiger's Eye ripped his head out and glared at Jason.

Tiger "Dammit! That winged donkey ain't here! Just another useless dream."

Jupiter "No dream is useless!"

Tiger "Huh?"

Tiger's Eye turned and realized that two sailor scouts interfered wih his mission. Sailor Galaxy crossed her arms as Jupiter's hands were on her hips.

Galaxy "Back away from the boy and you won't be as bloody as the other two!"

Jupiter "All these beautiful dreams are ripped asunder by you callous deeds!"

Tiger "Big words for a little girl!"

Sailor Jupiter growled. Her anger continued to grow at his remarks.

Jupiter "I'll show you little!"

"JUPITER THUNDER CRASH!!"

Lightning soared down from the skies and steered towards Tiger's Eye. But he simply leapt from his standing point and avoided getting a singe scratch.

Jupiter "Grr!"

Tiger "Wanna play? Sorry, I'm busy. But I have a friend who can substitute."

Suddenly, his shadow stretched across the ground.

Tiger "The stage is yours, Cultellus!"

A sparkle emmitted through the dark shadow. It spooked the scouts when a sudden blade protruded from the darkness. As it inched farther out, a handle came being held by a somewhat crass juggler. Inadvertently, he began to toss the blades in the air, jugging them 'round and 'round.

Jupiter "Shoot...not knives again!"

A memory flashed in her mind: the French chef that almost stole her heart crystal reappeared and gave her the shivers.

Tiger "Now, I should just kill this boy. My time has been cut short; pun intended."

Tiger's Eye faced Jason and smirked with delight. He unravelled his whip and raised it high in the air, waiting to crash it down and dismantle th mirror.

Jupiter "Jason!! Get away from him!!!"

Sailor Jupiter tried to run to Jason, but Cultellus blocked her path.

Jupiter "Out of the way, bozo!"

"JUPITER..."

Leaves suddenly appeared nd flew around her right hand. She balanced herself on her right foot and began pirouetting. Jupiter's tiara glowed as she spun faster and faster.

"OAK EVOLUTION!!"

The leaves were caught in her spin with the centrifugal force. Light from the tiara attached themselves to the leaves. Jupiter held out her palms and hacked the leaves toward Cultellus. The monster fell back as they tackled continuously.

Galaxy "Yeah!!"

But Cultellus quickly got up. Reaching behind its back, it held butcher knives as if they were kunai knives.

Cultellus "Take this!"

It threw the knives and they zoomed straight at the scouts. Galaxy and Jupiter flipped right before the knives made contact and landed even farther from Cultellus.

Galaxy "My turn!"

"SOLAR..."

Both of her hands glowed and began to create a certain shape. She suddenly clenched them into fists, materializing two black daggers in them. Galaxy switched them into a backhand hold and crossed them in front of her body, creating an X shape.

"HACHIREN CROSS!!"

She charged into Cultellus with her daggers before her. In the speed of light, Galaxy carved eight slashes on the monster's body. The scout landed crouched behind Cultellus with arms still crossed before her. As Galaxy stood up, the slases burned bright multiple colors, forcing Cultellus to fall down.

Cultellus "Chopped to bits...not good..."

Once the last breath escaped its body, the monster slowly disappeared and left the world of existence.

Galaxy "One down, one to go."

Jupiter "That was a strong attack, Sailor Galaxy."

They both turned to Tiger's Eye as he groaned, agitated.

Tiger "How could a horse so strong be hard to find!?"

The scouts heard his caustic outburst and went on questioning his sudden motives.

Jupiter "Why is Pegasus so important?"

Galaxy "What makes him strong?"

Tiger's Eye realized what he had done.

Tiger (Damn! Spilled the beams!) "Catch you later."

He smirked as a fiery portal appeared behind him. Tiger's Eye jumped through beforeGalax and Jupiter found a chance to catch him.

Galaxy "Shoot. Got away again."

Jupiter noticed Jason fall to the ground after the red board disappeared. She quickly changed back and ran to his side. Sailor Galaxy disappeared quietly as Jason began to stir.

Jason "Hey."

Lita "Hey. Wanna learn how to cook?"

As Sailor Galaxy left, she began wondering about Pegasus...whether he was faithful of not.

One new attack. The name was originally from Aoshi's ultimate attack in Rurouni Kenshin, but since there were eight planets, I thought "Hey, cool idea". And thus "Hachiren Cross" was born. The incident between Lita and Jason was from FruitsBasket when Kureno first met Arisa. That was a cute scene.

Next time on Sailor Galaxy Chronicles:

Anna "I'm already judging him."

Aoshi "Being kind is a task itself."

Rini "What's your dream, Sailor P?"

Trista "Not exactly a Utopia."

Man "Your beautiful dream."
