Mami sat slumped over in her chair, eyes scanning through a jewelry catalog. Her face contorted with frustration, and with a huff she tossed the catalog to the floor. Holding her head she sighed and began to shake it. ″Maybe... its something more than just a regular crystal. I can't find anything about a silver crystal anywhere.″ Looking to her window, Mami saw the sun shining in. Sighing she stood up and walked over to her closet where she took out a coat. ″Guess I should go out and take a look around the city... a walk will at least help me think.″
Once out on the streets, Mami found herself heading towards a familiar place. Passing through the glass doors to an arcade, Mami slumped herself over by a machine and sighed heavily. ″Why so gloomy Mami?″ A young man about Mami's age walked over to her, the uniform he wore showed that he obviously worked here. ″Got some big test your studying for.″
″T-test?″ Mami flushed and sat back. Quickly searching her memory she double checked to make sure she had no such engagements coming up. Relaxing herself she smiled relieved. ″Oh no, nothing academic. Thank goodness. Just got some personal stuff on my mind Motoki.″
″Hmm, gonna talk anything about it?″ Motoki sat next to Mami and gave her a coin for one of the game machines.
Taking the coin Mami smirked and put it into the Sailor V game that was before her. ″Ya see... its just these dreams again. Been bugging me a lot lately.″ She swiftly began to rush through the game level, leaping over some dragon like monsters that spat green flames at her.
″Dreams again huh? Thought of going to see a Doctor about it or something.″ Motoki scratched his head and grimaced. ″Last time you were in a funk it was cause of dreams too.″
″They'll pass I'm sure.″ Mami lied and smiled at Motoki who gave a confident smirk. ″Oh... one second. Got to beat this boss.″ Mami quickly began pressing buttons like crazy as she took on a gigantic hydra like beast. After defeating it she relaxed and paused the game.
″I'll trust you Mami. You know yourself better than I do. Just try to relax and have fun today.″ Motoki patted her shoulder and headed off to continue working.
Mami smirked and played a little with the joystick to the game console. 'Sheesh, he's nice. Maybe he's right. I should just relax for a bit and just let this dream stuff go. I'm sure it'll still be there when I get back from a mini vacation.' Unpausing her game, Mami continued on through fighting monster after monster until she was defeated by a giant cloud of darkness. ″Guess I should think about heading back home...″ Mami stretched and waved to Motoki, who was in the middle of helping a little boy get past a difficult level.
As she walked down the street she caught sight of blonde girl with buns. 'Hey... she looks kinda familiar. Wonder where it was I saw her before...' Drawing closer, Mami could here the girl yelling about something to a cat that was standing right in front of her. If Mami didn't know any better, it looked like that cat was glaring at the girl. Looking past them Mami saw an older woman passing out papers, which also raised her interest. 'What's that about?'
″Eh?! In a weird school like that?! No way!″ The girl crumpled up the paper and tossed it over her shoulder.
As it came flying at Mami a single thought popped into her head. 'I think I remember her now...' As the paper smacked her in the face, Mami's eye twitched.
″Hey, don't go littering the streets!″ The cat shouted as it pointed at the paper that was at Mami's feet. The cat gawked at Mami and quickly meowed and rubbed up against the girl's leg.
″You, Bun-head! I'm not a trash can you know!″ Mami picked up the paper and glared at the girl who quickly spun around and hit Mami in the face with her pigtails.
″Oh! You're that girl from before! I'm sorry!″ Usagi gave a bow to Mami and gave a weak laugh.
Mami stared at the girl, but her eyes drifted to the cat. With her anger from being smacked in the face with paper again dissipated, she looked back to the girl and tilted her head. ″Did... that cat just talk?″
″Whaaaaa?!″ The girl jumped away from Mami and snatched up the cat. ″D-don't be silly! Cat's don't talk! Ha ha! So silly... Bye!″ The girl than ran off, her pigtail trailing behind her as Mami just watched blankly.
'What... just happened.' before Mami could continue a piece of paper was thrusted into her face.
″Here. Why don't you take one too.″ The older woman smiled at Mami than went on handing out fliers.
Mami grabbed the flier and read it. 'Crystal Disc... a new study method.' Mami felt her face flush as she reread the word Crystal. 'It couldn't be... but...' Mami looked up to the woman and walked up to her. ″Excuse me. Where do I get this disc?″
″Oh, just read the flier. All the information is on there.″ The woman winked and walked off to find more people to give papers to.
Mami looked down at the paper and scanned it for information for the location she needed to go. Folding up the paper she smirked and began to head off in that direction. 'Well, I thought I was just gonna relax, but fate seems to have different plans.'
Once at home, Mami took out her laptop and inserted the Crystal disc into it. Mami stopped the disc from playing and began to look up its properties. As she began to mess around with it, the speakers began to croak out random words. ″infomation... collect... great...″ Looking curiously at this Mami began to mess a little bit more with the code of the disc until a full sentence was being said. ″We are the minions of the great ruler and we must gather any information concerning the ″Legendary Silver Crystal″.″
Mami held a hand to her head as a huge grin began to come over her face. ″So... I'm not the only one looking for it am I?″ Mami leaned back and scratched her chin. ″If they are trying to brainwash people into getting them information about the silver crystal, perhaps they've already collected some info I could... borrow.″ Mami smirked and ejected the disc from her laptop. ″Time to head back to where I got you.″
Standing outside the school where the discs were being given out, Mami hid in the shadows and tossed her pen into the air. ″Earth Power, Make up!″ Mami quickly sneaked in through a window and crept through the building. She eventually came across a locked door, which she broke with a single kick. Smiling she pumped her fists. ″This power form rocks.″ Mami entered into the room and saw a large computer which was displaying a large amount of information. Taking out a usb, Mami stuck it into the computer and quickly began to look around the computer for information. Copying the files that contained references to crystals, Mami quickly collected as much data as she could. As she did this however she heard a loud commotion coming from one of the rooms.
″What's that?″ Mami looked over her shoulder than ejected her usb before searching out what this noise was. Looking into the room she saw it completely covered in a bubbly mist. ″What in the world...″ As Mami looked in she saw Sailor Moon wondering about inside, with a large imposing figure appearing behind her. ″No!″ Slamming the door open, Mami ran in and moved her out of the way in the nick of time. ″Your enemy was right in front of you! Be more careful!″ Winking at Sailor Moon she saluted her. ″Now hurry and finish the beasty off.″ Mami than ran out of the room as Sailor Moon aimed her attack at the monster.
Mami ran down the school corridor and heard the monster let out a shriek of pain. ″Knew you could do it.″ Mami took out the usb and looked darkly at it. ″Maybe this will let me know if we can be allies or not. We both seem to be looking for the same thing.″
