Everyone, I have some big news before the start of this one shot. There is a new drama series out in Japan and you will not believe this. The main characters in this new series are named Michiru and Ruka, and that is only the beginning. Ruka is a bit boyish and she races in motocross. On top of that, it also appears that she may have a crush or something on Michiru. For anyone interested, the series is called "Last Friends" and the first episode is available subbed from Kioku Fansubs. Well now that I told you about that, on with the one shot.
Disclaimer: I don't own Sailor Moon.
The Outers get a Cat
I was sitting on the couch with my Michiru. She was cuddled up to me, resting her head on my shoulder. I had my arm wrapped around her. Setsuna was sitting in a separate chair, reading her book. Michiru and I were busy watching the new drama series "Last Friends". I swear they based this off our lives, only leaving the senshi part out. We were watching it in peace that is before Hotaru ran in.
"Haruka-papa! Michiru-mama! Setsuna-mama! Can we get a cat?" She called out as she ran in, jumping in mine and Michiru's laps. I patted her on the head.
"I don't know, Hime-chan, a cat is a huge responsibility." I told her. She looked at me with puppy dog eyes. Damn Michiru for teaching her that. I turn to Michiru.
"What do you say?" I asked her.
"Well I don't really want fur left all over my furniture." She said.
"I'll brush it everyday!" Hotaru pleads. We then turned to Setsuna.
"I don't really mind, as long as it stays out of my room." She said. Hotaru cheered with joy.
"We're getting a cat! "We're getting a cat!" She jumped up and down and ran out of the room to call Chibiusa. I just sighed. What were we getting ourselves into?
That afternoon, we went to the pet store to buy a cat. We looked all around the store. There was a wide assortment of pets everything from dogs to cats to birds to hamsters to lizards to snakes to fish. They were all here. Hotaru was eyeing one of the hamsters.
"Kawaii!" She squealed, "Can we get a hamster as well?" I sighed. Buying a hamster would be like buying really expensive cat food.
"No, we better not, cats and hamsters don't mix." Michiru told her.
"Why not?" Hotaru asked with a sad look in her eyes.
"Well you do know how cats have a tendency to kill mice right?" Setsuna said. Hotaru nodded. "Well they also have a tendency to kill other small rodents. Who wouldn't want that, would you?" Hotaru shook her head. With that we walked over to the cat cage. There were six cats in there today. Hotaru picked up an orange cat.
"Kawaii!" She squealed, "Let's get this one." We took the cat, food, litter box, collar, toys, and anything else related to raising cats up front to pay.
That night, we were all in the living room with our new cat Hotaru had named Tora. The inners and their cats were over as well, since Hotaru wanted to show Tora off. Tora was busy checking everyone out. Usagi squealed like a fool.
"OMG! He's so cute!" She squealed. We all sweat dropped. Tora walked over to her and started to rub his head against her leg. Just then there was a noise outside. We all rushed to the door to see what it was. There was a youma in our backyard. How it got there, I'll never know. We quickly transformed and confronted it.
"Stop right there!" Sailor Moon cried. The youma faced her with little interest. "How dare you interrupt a gathering of friends celebrating a new cat? For that I will not forgive you! I'm Sailor Moon!"
"Sailor Chibimoon!"
"Sailor Mercury!"
"Sailor Mars!"
"Sailor Venus!"
"Sailor Jupiter!"
"In the name of the moon, we will punish you!" Leave it to the inners to create a scene. I for one did not feel like introducing myself to a random youma so decided just to attack.
"World Shaking!" I cried. The other outers followed my lead.
"Deep Submerge!"
"Dead Scream!" All our attacks hit the thing head on. Sailor Moon cheered and I noticed Tora had wondered out onto the battle field.
"That's the way to do it!" Sailor Moon cried. Unaware of Tora's presence, she attacked. "Moon Spiral Heart Attack!" She cried.
"NOOOOOOOOOOOO!" I cried as the attack hit Tora instead of the Youma. There was a blinding flash of light.
"TORA!" Saturn cried.
"Way to go, Usagi." Mars commented dully. Sailor Moon looked shocked.
"I didn't mean to…" She looked ready to cry. When the light finally died down, Tora was still there. The only difference was that now he had a crescent moon on his forehead. He walked over to Saturn.
"Don't cry Hotaru, I'm still alright." He said. Saturn looked shocked.
"You can talk?" She was very shocked.
"Yes, Sailor Moon's attack awakened my hidden powers." Tora told her. He turned to the Youma and shot a beam at it. The youma then disintegrated. Hotaru squealed.
"Tora, you're the coolest cat ever! I can't wait to show you to all my friends!" She said. Is the world even ready for a talking cat?
The End!
