Chapter 2

"LET ME GO LET ME GO LET ME GO LET ME GO LET ME GO LET ME GO LET ME GOOOOOOOOO!"

Serena held Luna by the tail, her arm outstretched to keep her safe from the black cat's sharp claws. The blonde was surprised by the cat's hissy fit; Luna had told her countless times that she needed to act more mature. Therefore, one should not find it surprising that Luna's sudden lack of self-control amused Serena.

'At least I'm not the one who throws a temper tantrum every time I have to get a bath,' Serena thought. It was true. She had matured since she was eleven.

But let's get back on track, shall we?

Ignoring the cat's protests, Serena marched out of her room and down the hall towards the bathroom. She paused outside of her parents' room, a thoughtful look on her face. Making a silent decision, she entered the room, holding the still-yowling Luna by the tail.

She emerged a few moments later, a couple of her mother's hard-back romance novels tucked underneath her arm.

---------------------

"Wait here, Luna! I'll be right back!"

"DON'T YOU DARE-" Luna was cut off as Serena unceremoniously dropped her into the dirty clothes hamper. A pair of red eyes glared daggers at the face of the blonde who cheerfully waved and closed the top of the hamper. A soft thump confirmed the cat's suspicions of what the books were for.

Serena clapped her hands together before turning and skipping out of the bathroom. Humming a cheerful little tune to herself, she left her cat behind; trapped in a dirty clothes hamper with the heavy books she had borrowed from her mother resting over the lid. She was sure that the cat would not be able to knock the lid off and escape. She thought she had won.

But oh how wrong she was.

---------------------

When Serena returned ten minutes later, she was well armed. She had the special shampoo Luna needed, a blow dryer, and a Luna's hairbrush, all inside a bucket. She had also changed into a right attire for Bath War II (Bath War I had occurred the last time Serena had given Luna a bath; it had also been her first time, and she had the battle scars to prove how inexperienced she had been); a long sleeved light pink shirt and a pair of overalls. And of course, she had tied her hair up into a bun so that Luna wouldn't try anything like she did last time. Luckily, the six inches of hair that had been lost grew back quickly.

She opened the door to the bathroom, unaware of the horror that awaited her inside.

"Okay, Luna. Time for your- AAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYIIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!"

Serena dropped the bucket, blue eyes wide and staring in dismay at the horrific sight in the bathroom.

Luna had obviously escaped; the hamper was on its side, the top of it shredded into pieces, as well as all of the clothes that had been inside it. But that wasn't what had made her scream.

What had made her scream was the sight of her mother's favorite romance novels, shredded and scattered all around the bathroom floor.

Slowly, her look of dismay melted into a look of fear (at the thought of what her mother would do to her when she found out about this), then a look of more fear (at the thought of what her FATHER would do to her when her mother told him what had happened), followed by a look of annoyance (at the thought of what her brother would say when he found out about this), and finally into a look of rage (at the thought of a certain black-haired, red-eyed cat who would meet her doom as soon as she was found).

Serena only uttered three words as her gaze flickered to the small, open bathroom window.

"This. Means. WAR!"
