Chapter 2, Family Bonding, Mikey's Jams Out:

It was a fairly normal day for Takato. She had settled into her routine fairly well. Although she found out about something from Ren later that day that made her grin. Her cousin still had his ear for music.

Mikey Kudo was bored. All of his friends had family stuff to do that day. Takato had to work so he had decided to go for a walk and wander around. "Shoutmon. don't take offense but, whenever I listen to my headphones I tend to not pay any attention to anything. I zone out and am in my own little world." Shoutmon wasn't all surprised. Ms. Kudo told him when that behaivior actually took root. "Sure thing bro. Just don't let yourself get run over."

Mikey slipped in his red skullcandy earbuds. The first song on his playlist was Ice Ice Baby by Vanilla Ice. He listened to two other songs after that before he started dancing. He was boping his head and moving his body in time to Savage Garden's The Best Thing. He didn't care if most of the songs he liked were normally popular with girls in his age group. His preference of music came from spending time with a female cousin and a female best friend. It was the song City Is Ours by Big Time Rush when he started singing.

The city is ours

Rollin' past grafitti walls

Billboards lightin' up the block

Every one of us on a mission

Got a whole crew by my side

Cars beep beep when they pass us by

We ready to get down to business

We pull up

Open the door

All the girls scream

There they are

It's packed from wall to wall and

Everybody is callin'

Here we come

It's almost time

Feel the rush

Now hit the lights

We gonna get all started

Because the night is young

The line is out the door

Today was crazy but tonight

The city is ours

Live it up until the mornin' comes

Today was crazy but tonight

The city is ours

My, my look how we roll

Was it only a month ago

Everybody said we were dreamin'

Oh oh

Now we're here like, yeah we told ya

Still far but we're that much closer

And there ain't now way we're leavin'

Oh no

We pull up

Open the door

All the girls scream

There they are

It's packed from wall to wall and

Everybody is callin'

Here we come

It's almost time

Feel the rush

Now hit the lights

We gonna get all started

Because the night is young

The line is out the door

Today was crazy but tonight

The city is ours

Live it up until the mornin' comes

Today was crazy but tonight

The city is ours

Oh yeah

We gotta believe it's destiny callin'

So night after night we rock the whole place out

As hard as it seems I know if we want it

That it's gonna happen some how

Because the night is young

The line is out the door

Today was crazy but tonight

The city is ours

Live it up until the mornin' comes

Today was crazy but tonight

Because the night is young

The line is out the door

Today was crazy but tonight

The city is ours

Live it up until the mornin' comes

Today was crazy but tonight

The city is ours

Mikey never noticed being so focused on his music, Angie saw the whole thing and recorded it. He also never noticed Jeremy and his parents, Tagiru and her parents, Nene, Ewan and their parents, Christopher and his aunt and uncle, Ren and his parents, Ryouma and his parents, or Airu and her parents watching him as well. All of them had an amused look on their faces.

He was walking towards the mall when he saw a sweet shop. "Moonlight Densetsu, that's an interesting name." He said to himself. Placing his Ipod which he switched off in his shorts pocket. Mikey walked inside and saw a very familiar woman at the counter. "Aunt Mei!" Mrs. Matsuki smiled, "Well Mikey I was wondering when you'd find this place." Th two exchanged some minor small talk, before Mikey ended up buying a large strawberry banana smoothie, a choclate chunk cookie, and a slice of chocolate brownie cheesecake. He went over to a table and watched people walk in and out. He also noticed Takato walking around the tables in a white shirt, light grey pants, a light grey apron, sneakers, and a white hat with a yellow cresent moon, as well as the words Moonlight Densetsu Sweet Shop written underneath in silver.

He started up a conversation with her and had thuroughly enjoyed himself. He and Takato made plans to spend the day together that saturday. Doing the things they used to together for the first time in over three years.

The next day at school Mikey was walking down the hall so he could meet up with his friends to have lunch together like everyday. He found them on the roof Angie being hounded by not only their friends but Takato and HER friends. "Okay does someone want to tell me what's going on? I've been getting odd looks and random people giving me all sorts of compliments. Teachers included."

Tagiru grinned. "Angie and everyone else save Takato saw your impromptu jam session on the street yesterday. Angie posted it on youtube." Mikey was red faced in pure and utter embarassment. "Oh my god. Angie I can't believe you did that." Jeremy chuckled, "Mikey my parents and I watched the video since we only saw part of it. My mom thinks you're really good. From what I saw your really awesome." Ren actually asked, "Hey Takato, can you sing?" Takato smiled.

I can almost see it

That dream I'm dreamin' but

There's a voice inside my head sayin' you'll never reach it

Every step I'm taking

Every move I makes feel

Lost with no direction

My faith is shakin'

But I, I gotta keep tryin'

Gotta keep my head held high

There's always gonna be another mountain

I'm always gonna wanna make it move

Always gonna be an uphill battle

Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose

Ain't about how fast I get there

Ain't about what's waiting on the other side

It's the climb

The struggles I'm facing

The chances I'm taking

Sometimes might knock me down

But no, I'm not breaking

I may not know it

But these are the moments

That I'm gonna remember most yeah

Just gotta keep going

And I, I gotta be strong

Just keep pushing on

Cause there's always gonna be another mountain

I'm always gonna make it move

Always gonna be an uphill battle

Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose

Ain't about how fast I get there

Ain't about what's waiting on the other side

It's the climb

Yeah!

There's always gonna be another mountain

I'm always gonna wanna make it move

Always gonna be an uphill battle

Sometimes your gonna have to lose

Ain't about how fast I get there

Ain't about what's waiting on the other side

It's the climb

Yeah!

Keep on moving, keep climbing

Keep the faith, baby

It's all about, It's all about the climb

Keep your faith, keep your faith

Whoa

When Takato finished her song Ewan said, "Well it looks like musical talent runs in the family."

That saturday Mikey was in a slightly different outfit than usual. A white t-shirt with a gold colored sleeveless zip up hoody, blue jeans, a pair of red sneakers, and instead of his signature green goggles he had on a red bandana tied like a head band. When Takato walked up he noticed she was wearing a light blue sleeveless zip up hoody, a pink t-shirt, blue jeans, pink sneakers, and a pink bandana like how he was wearing his. She also had her Fusion Loader with her. He had his too. Just in case.

Nene was hanging out with Ewan for some quality brother sister time when Ewan spotted Takato and Mikey. The Amano siblings walk over to Mikey and his cousin. "Hey you two having fun?" Nene asks. More to Mikey than to Takato. She didn't know why but seeing the girl made her feel wierd. Like she was in a snow storm or something. Mikey shrugged. "It's been an interesting day so far." Takato suggested, "Why don't all four of us hang out?"

Ewan and Takato were in a very animated conversation about the movie they both happened to love. "I mean it who really would believe Haru after that?" Ewan said laughing. Takato chuckled lightly, "I know. I mean you walk up to a random cat and ask it, 'can you take me to the Cat Beareau?' talk about silly." Ewan laughed, "Still it would be kinda fun if it was real." The two laughed while Mikey and Nene were walking behind them deep in their own conversation,. Nene said, "Mikey, please don't be mad. But your cousin makes me feel like I'm in a snow storm or something." Mikey shrugged, "Makes me feel like that once in a while too. The reason is she was trapped in that red blob that attacked Shinjuku three years back for a month and a half. And people she cared for and trusted betrayed her. So she's working through some emotional issues. You just need to take it in little steps. She'll warm up to you Nene. Just give her some time."

The four went to a kareoke cafe and went in. Takato looked at the stage and gave Mikey a pleading puppy dog look. "No way. I was humiliated enough this week from singing." Nene said, "I'll sing with you." The two girls went up and found a very fun song.

(Nene Takato Both)

Why am I always hit on by the boys I never like

I can always see them comin' from the left or from the right

I don't wanna be a priss I'm just tryin' to be polite

But it always seems to bite me in the

You think that we shood hook up but I think that we should not

You had me at hello then you opened up your mouth

And that is when it started going south

Before I punch you in the lips

HEY

The two girls song ended and they were given a standing ovation from the cafe customers. Ewan entered a song and went next.

Feel my way through the darkness guided by a beatin' heart

I can't tell where the journey will end but I know where to start

They tell me I'm too young to understand they say I'm caught up in a dream

Well life will pass me by if I don't open up my eyes well that's fine by me

So wake me up when it's all over

When I'm wiser and I'm older

All this time I was findin' myself and I didn't know I was lost

So wake me up when it's all over

When I'm wiser and I'm older

All this time I was findin' myself and I didn't know I was lost

During the instumental Ewan broke out some very impressive dance moves. People were on their feet dancing and clapping along to the beat.

I tried carryin' the weight of the the world but I only have two hands

Hope I the chance to travel the world but I don't have any plans

Wish that I could stay forever this young not afraid to close my eyes

Life's a game made for everyone and love is the prize

So wake me up when it's all over

When I'm wiser and I'm older

All this time I was findin' myself and I didn't know I was lost

So wake me up when it's all over

When I'm wiser and I'm older

All this time I was findin' myself and I, I didn't know I was lost

I didn't know I was lost

Ewan finished off the song with another equally impressive dance routine. Mikey relented after Ewan's display. "Fine Takato, one song. And only one song" Mikey got up and entered one of his and Takato's favorites from when they were kids.

This ain't a song for the broken hearted

No silent prayer for the faith departed

I ain't gonna be just a face in the crowd

Your gonna hear my voice when I shout it loud

It's my life

It's now or never

But I ain't gonna live forever

I just wanna live while I'm alive

It's my life

My heart is like an open highway

Like Frankie said I did it my way

I just wanna live while I'm alive

Cause it's my life

This for ones who stood their ground

For Tommy and Gina who never backed down

Tomorrow's gettin' harder make no mistake

Luck ain't even lucky gotta make your own breaks

It's my life

It's now or never

I ain't gonna live forever

I just wanna live while I'm alive

It's my life

My heart is like an open highway

Like Frankie said I did it my way

I just wanna live while I'm alive

Cause it's my life

Diring the instrumental Mikey pulled off some insane and awesome acrobatics. People were screaming and partying as if Bon Jovi himself was on stage.

Better stand tall when their calling you out

Break down baby don't back down

It's my life

It's now or never

Cause I ain't gonna live forever

I just wanna live while I'm alive

It's my life

My heart is like an open highway

Like Frankie said I did it my way

I just wanna live while I'm alive

It's my life

It's now or never

But I ain't gonna live forever

I just wanna live while I'm alive

My heart is like an open highway

Like Frankie said I did it my way

I just wanna live while I'm alive

Cause it's my life

Once Mikey's song ended people were cheering and whooping like they had seen an awesome heavy metal concert. Mikey was blushing at the praise. Heading back to his cousin and friends he asked, "Happy now?" All three of them nodded in pure glee.

After they ate and hung out some more the quartet walked through the park just talking. "Mikey where did you pick up that Bon Jovi song? I never would of believed you liked that sort of music." Mikey laughed. "Blame Takato. She's the one who introduced me to Bon Jovi, Three Days Grace, Puddle Of Mudd, and Treat. She loves that sort of stuff. I in turn introduced her to the country genre. So we both picked up music the other liked." Takato nudged him playfully in the side, "Oh sure. Is that why when I was eight I found jumping up and down on your bed listening to the Spice Girls?"

Nene and Ewan roared with laughter. Mikey chuckled too. "Hey low blow missy. If I recall I saw you dancing around your front room in only a t-shirt and your underwear listening to 'Put The Lime In The Coconut' when you were nine." That got the Amano siblings laughing even harder. Nene remarked, "You know I swear you two are more like brother and sister not cousins." Mikey laughed lightly, "I've always seen Takato as a little sister."

Takato giggled, "No kidding. Once when he was seven and I was six there were some older kids teasing me and he said, 'Hey you idiots leave my little sister alone!' Next morning a woman comes in the bakery my family used to run and asked my mom, 'How's your son?' My mom was really confused. So the lady described what she had seen before my mom figured it out. She said, 'That boy is my nephew. He thinks of my daughter as his little sister. For the record he and my daughter are both still asleep.' The look on my mom's face once we had come downstairs was funny."

The day ended withice cream and a promise to get together again the following weekend.

That night as Nene dreamed, she felt cold though her blanket was wrapped secruely around her.

Dream sequence:

Nene was walking through a frozen waste land. It was snowing heavily. She saw a girl in a light blue and dark blue sailor uniform."Who are you?' Nene asked. The girl who had blue hair and eyes smiled, "I am the Sailor Scout of Ice, intellegence, and fresh water. Sailor Mercury." Nene was confused, "Why are you in my dreams Sailor Mercury?" Mercury smiled, "It's almost time Nene. The princess remembers her past two lives. You will remember yours soon enough."

End dream

Nene bolted awake. "What was that?" She looked at the moon as she went for a walk. A creature that looked like a human/microphone hybrid was there and said, "You girl. Give me your pure heart!" Nene was scared when a distinctly female voice called out, "Moon Tiara Magic!" Nene saw a girl with her hair pulled back in two pigtails with buns on top. She was wearing a mostly white sailor uniform with little bits of silver on it. "Thank you." Nene said. The girl shrugged. "No problem. As Sailor Moon it's my job to protect people." Nene was wide eyed. "Do you know Sailor Mercury? She keeps coming to me in my dreams. Saying, 'It's almost time.' It's almost time for what?" Sailor Moon smiled, "It's almost time for you to remember your past. Before you were reborn as Nene Amano." With that Sailor Moon left. In her place was a necklace with the symbol for Mercury in silver and a light blue gem in the miidle.

Nene returned home relishing in the feeling of the water on her skin. Once she finished her shower, Nene went back to bed.
