Card Captor Sakura Fan Fiction / Sailor Moon Fan Fiction ❯ Change in heart, Change in me ❯ No Need for Relationships ( Chapter 2 )

[ P - Pre-Teen ]
Hello, I want to start off by thanking the people who have encouraged me and who’ve reviewed this story. I appreciate the kind words and the ideas on how I could improve, or change anything!!! Thank-You.

This Chapter tells the events that made Usagi decide to leave. Usagi, Minako, Rei are 16, Ami’s 15, and Makoto’s 17. Mamoru’s 21 and Motoki’s 20. Chibi-Usa’s 6-7 and Shingo’s 13 ½-14. (There’s a reason he’s so close to Usa’s age.)

I still do not own CCS, SM, or the Tenchi Universe ending.



Change of heart, change in me

‘NO NEED FOR RELATIONSHIPS’

It’s the least romantic fight



In Juuban (Usagi)

It was early on a dreary and rainy wed. morning. Usagi was doing her usual mad dash for school trying not to be late. When she bumped into to someone like she usually did every morning. She was about to collide with the ground when a pair of strong arms wrapped around her waist. She quickly opened her eyes and was looking into pair of deep stormy eyes; in fact her face was only mer centimeters from her saviors. Her cheeks flared a burning pink. He stood her up but his arms were around her waist he leaned down and awkwardly kissed her n her forehead as if he was forcing it. She noticed this and backed away from his embrace. She looked at him and noticed the peculiar expression on his face, she then glanced down at her watch and took off once more.

"Sorry Mamo-chan, I have to go I’m going to be really late."
She yelled as she left. Se ran into the school barely making it to class as the ball rang. She took her place in her seat as Ms. Haruna walked in. She told the class to take their seats, they did and she started the lessons droning on about fraction, decimals, grammar, and other wonderful topics. Finally the lunch bell rang and everyone ran out of the class. Usually Usagi’s the first one out but today all she could think about was the strange look Mamoru gave her. She kept thinking about it till she bumped into someone and heard them moan slightly in pain. She looked up and saw that she had walked into Makoto who had a broken leg.

She felt horrible because it was her fault that she was hurt, because she didn’t act quick enough during their last battle with a yuma Jupiter had gotten thrown around by the leg and it got broken badly.

"Hey Usa-chan, How are you. You seem a little spacier than usual today?"

Usagi gave her a warm smile and assured that everything was alright. They walked to the courtyard where they always ate with Ami, and Minako. They headed outside and 2 unhappy faces greeted Usagi.

"Usagi there’s a meeting at Minako’s today. We need to talk to you all of us. So you better be there."

Ami advised somberly as her and Minako started to walk away with Makoto following slowly behind waving to Usagi as she left. She stood there for a moment confused by Ami’s angry and unhappy tone. She wandered back into the school and put her lunch in her locker, not hungry anymore but curious. The rest of the day passed slowly Ami, and Minako didn’t really talk to her they gave her the cold shoulder. And she didn’t really get to see Makoto much. But the day ended and she walked home alone, and slowly watching the fall scenery change around her.

Around 3:55 she finally entered her house, to immediately get yelled at by Luna. Her smart mouth cat.

"Usagi, weren’t you supposed to be at Minako’s by now? You know, if you didn’t have those meatballs for brains you might have remembered."

She said Sarcastically.

"Alright Luna I’m going they never told what time to be there so I figured I’d come home first. Why are you here anyway? Why aren’t you with your family? (Since the finally battle with Galaxia ended and the world was safe, just an occasional Yuma, Luna and Artimis have been living together with Mina, and Diana would visit sometimes with Chibi-Usa.) I’ll get going in a minute."

She concluded grumpily, as she stalked up stairs and quickly changed into a short skirt and a big sweatshirt with her broach on the collar. She ran out of the door into the dimming afternoon air and headed for Minako’s apartment building. After about 15 minutes in the chilling air she finally arrived at her friends door. She knocked a few times till she finally heard a bubbly voice yelling. Soon after the door opened revealing Minako. "Finally" she mumbled as she let her friend in. They both walked into her bedroom where 3 other girls were waiting impatiently for her, Minako soon joined them on the bed while Usagi sat at a chair by her desk. The looks they were shooting her way were unnerving and cold she felt a little uncomfortable in her presence.

"What’s the matter Princess? Feel a little uncomfortable"

Rei sneered sarcastically. She just looked at her for a moment till a tall curvaceous brunette stood and got her attention.

"Usa-chan, I love you as my best friend you are the first one who dared talk to me, get to know me, and befriend me. But all the good things about Usagi aren’t the same good qualities as Sailor Moon. She’s late, a crybaby whiner, and she’s not strong enough to handle most of the enemies. Thankfully we’ve only had a few Yuma here and there but you alone have managed to get us all hurt either by not being there, not acting quickly enough or being clumsy. I’m really sorry Usagi but I feel that you should take a break from being Sailor Moon for a while."
Makoto concluded sadly. Usagi looked at the girl in front of her for a moment stunned.

"D- Do all of you feel this way?"

She asked disbelievingly. They all nodded their heads, almost to quickly. She looked at them once more. Then turned away towards the door.

"Well if that’s the way you want it then… then fine."

She started to walk out of the door but a hand on her wrist soon stopped her. She turned around fast to see Minako grabbing her.

"Usagi-chan, we want the wand, communicator, brooch everything. You shouldn’t have such power. You could trip and demolish half the city."

She bit sarcastically. Usagi looked at her in disbelief as she ripped her hand out of her grasp. She rummaged through her pocket and pulled out a device that almost resembled a watch. She held it up as she held back the stinging tears. She took a breath to get her gasping breath under control. She roughly cleared her throat before she was able to speak.

"Scouts, if this is how you want it. I am from now forth no longer Sailor Moon. I’ll give you my communicator but I refuse to hand over my scepter or brooch to you. It’s no good to any of you… (Her voice broke sharply) It’s no good to any of you anyway."

She finished a few tears falling down her alabaster cheeks.

"Don’t be such a baby PRI-NC-ESS. You need to not cry over every little thing."

Rei spoke pointedly. Usagi was very upset and mad, she took her communicator and threw it hard on the ground in front of Rei and watched it as it broke into little pieces. She ran out of Minako’s house into the frigid dusk. She ran down the street tears pouring like rivers. She could hardly see a thing when she finally stopped runnin But she heard a faint screeching noise as she saw what looked like blurry lights in front of her, but she felt herself get ripped from the oncoming danger by a pair ofe strong arms. She was confused but looked up into a pair of pale blue eyes framed in worry by sandy hair. Her breath, which had quickened in anticipation, had begun to calm down.

"Mo- Motoki? What are you doing…"

She managed to chunter out. He looked down at her shaking and frightened form in his arms. She didn’t look at him once, worried as to what she may see. Once she regained her senses she peeled herself out of his grasp.

"Uh… um Motoki, what’s wrong with Mamo-chan? Does he not care for me anymore?"

She asked worriedly. He gave her a sincere smile and thought for a moment before he spoke.

"Usa-chan I’ve known Mamoru-kun for a long, he cares for you this I know, but I think you should talk to him."

He finished resolutely. Usagi was beginning to speak when he grabbed her shoulders and spun her around. His sudden movements shocked her, till her still teary eyes settled on Mamoru standing in front of her. She smiled lightly at him, but his serious expression never wavered. She stepped towards him and looked deep into his eyes for a moment till she ran into his unawaiting eyes. She backed away from him when she realized he wasn’t hugging her.

"Usagi-chan, I need to tell you something. It’s going to be a little hard but I hope that you’ll understand"

She looked at him, her saddened eyes filled with interest and fear.

"Usagi-chan are you OK? Your eyes look a little pink."
She blushed and shook her head but didn’t speak.

"Usagi-chan I’m sorry but I think we should take a break for a little while. I still care for you but I just would like some time to be on my own with out you. I know this seems harsh and I truly apologize, but I feel it’s the best for me and you."

Usagi was devastated she wanted to run but she felt her legs go numb incapable of movement. She just looked at his face, which she knew was concealing the emotion running through him, but his eyes couldn’t, she saw the hurt that ran through them.

"But why Mamo-chan, why? What did I do?"

She asked sadly. She didn’t know it but he felt badly for what he was putting her through, but he felt it was right for right now. He looked away to avoid the agony that danced in her eyes. And she felt new tears trickling down her cheeks. She didn’t know what to do so she regained her senses as best she could and left. Her slow pace picked up and soon she was running home full speed. She quickly came upon her house and ran through the door and up to her room. Slamming every door that was in her wake. Her family kept hushing her but she just stomped into her room to be confronted by a tired and grumpy Luna. Luna took one look at her charge and became concerned. She let her droop into her pajamas and get ready for bed, before she approached her.

"Usa-chan are you alright?"

She asked cautiously, as she sat in front of the silvery blonde girl that lay in front of her covered in her thick plush blanket, the tears still trickling down her cheeks. An angry expression soon appeared on her face.

"Like you don’t know Luna, I’m sure you agree with all of them."

She sobbed through her tears. Luna gave her a shocked expression as she continued to look at her.

"They kicked me out. I’m useless to them and I’m useless to Mamo-chan! The scouts kicked me out and Mamoru-kun broke up with me."

She stated bitterly. She felt new tears fall as she tossed in her bed and reluctantly fell asleep.

After a restless night of sleep she woke up to see a beautifully radiant sun fighting with darkness of the night. ‘I’m up early’ she thought to herself. She looked at her clock and saw it was only 5.30. She still had a good hour till she had to leave for school. She thought about the developments that took place yesterday and tried to convince herself that it was all a horrible dream. But when she looked in her mirror all she could see were her blood red eyes and tears streaked cheeks she knew that it was not. She walked into the bathroom like at any moment she was going to collapse. She took her silvery hair out of her meatballs and brushed through it, but she did something that was rare she left it down. She sulked back into her room and threw on her schools uniform and headed down stairs. She stalked through the kitchen grabbing this and that for her breakfast. She ate a piece of grapefruit, the rest of the corn pops, a glass of Cool Aid, a sweet and sour muffin, an egg roll and a some Sashimi from the previous night. (A.N: My favorite muffin has blueberries and cranberries with a sugar-cinnamon top. YUM.: )

When she finished her hodge-podge breakfast she looked at the time, which now said 6.05. She walked out of the kitchen and put on her shoes and stepped out into the still chilled air. Her hair flared around her bowed face as she walked down the street on her way to school. She bumped into to someone hard but regained her balance as she apologized and continued walking without so much as a glance upwards. When she heard the voice speaking she stopped in her tracks, and slowly turned to look at the person. And she saw Mamoru behind her looking directly into her. She shuddered as the memories of what everyone’s said to her came back.

"Why? First the girls who I thought were my friend then you. Why?"

She asked loudly. Mamoru gave her a bizarre look before he questioned her.

"Usagi-chan what are you talking about?"

She turned away not wanting to look at him any longer. And slowly started to walk away as she yelled back to him.

"Like you really care but I can no longer be Sailor Moon. Then you decide to stop seeing me. I’m not good enough for anyone I guess."

She whispered loudly tears starting to resurface. She continued to school slowly, she made to school with 15 minutes to spare. She slumped into her classroom giving everyone a heart attack. She solemnly sat at her desk and got her stuff ready for class.

"Hey Usa-chan, what’s wrong with you trouble in paradise?"

Naru asked annoyingly, being in the mood that she was she quickly snapped back.

"Naru No way in hell am I in paradise. Mamoru’s a jerk and so are my so-called friends. Look what they did real friends would have stuck by me. Given me another chance."

She ended mumbling more to herself. She happened to notice Ami and Minako with Makoto by the door laughing. Some people had been making comments about her present state but she ignored them and stared blankly till Miss. Haruna walked in the room calling for the classes attention she had everyone sit then she took attendance. She began her lessons, which seemed to drone on endlessly, till the sweet release of the lunch bell echoed through the halls. All the students ran happily out of the class that is except Usagi she walked around like the weight of the world was on her shoulders. She saw her friends and almost ran over to greet them but the looks they shot her made her stay put. She felt alone and sad all these feelings just made her cry. She did her best to hide it but it wasn’t easy. The bell soon rang again calling all the antsy students back to class and the teaching commenced.

"Class we’ll be doing a partner project with the new teacher Ms. Mitsuki’s class. You’ll be in-groups of 4-5, and you’ll be doing a project to do with Music, hatred, Friendship, peace, or something of your choice but it has to approved by Ms. Mitsuki or myself. Ok now class lets get going."

The class walked into a large room where students had already been waiting. Usagi sat in the back staring off not really paying attention till heard the teacher begin to talk about the groups.

"Listen up we made up the groups so get together when were done. Meimi, Naru, Daiki, Hikari you’re group one. The calling went like that till the last group. Usagi, Yui, Makoto, Minako, and Ami are our final group. You can now sit with your partners."

The teacher concluded and the class all got up and sat with theirs groups. Usagi tried to sit far away to avoid the glares of her friends, but Yui forced her to sit by her. She excused herself for a minute and asked Miss. Mitsuki if she could go to the nurse because she didn’t feel well.
"You may miss. Tsukino if you feel you can’t go on with today’s class. But miss. Tsukino you’re stronger than you think. You need to take time and realize that."

She said mysteriously and almost knowingly. Usagi gave her a weird look but headed out of the room.

The day was almost over so she stayed in the nurse’s office for the remainder of the day. The bell finally rang and the day ended. She slowly made her way out of the school feeling sadder than she was before. She got home and was confronted by a taunting younger brother all though not that much than herself.

"Oneesan, I- I think I’m goin’ to have a heart attack you’re home before 4.00, and you’re not on your way back to see your friends or Ma-mor-u."

He said sarcastically. She was fuming and upset she gave him a glare so cold it could have frozen fire then spoke heatedly.

"Shingo you Baka! We broke up and I’m not friends with them anymore."

She finished disappointedly. He just looked away like he didn’t even care.

"What ever Odango Atama. What took him so long."

He laughed. Usagi hit him upside the head as she stormed upstairs. She lay on her bed letting the few tears fall when she heard a knock at the door.

"What"

She whined pitifully. She heard the door creak open as a stern female voice started yelling.

"Young lady you march down stair and apologize to your brother right now. He has a red hand print indented on the side of his face."

She turned to face her mother and looked her straight in the eyes.

"Not right now."

She whispered commandingly. Her mother noticed the sad look on her face and decided to give her sometime.

"Ok I’ll give you a chance to get yourself under control but later I want you to apologize and I want you to talk to me."

Usagi was silent and her mom took that as a cue to leave, she turned and left her daughter in her misery.

"They don’t want me around here. My supposed friends find me a burden, a clumsy, klutzy ditz. And they’re right I’ve nearly killed them on many occasions."

She contemplated to herself as she rose to her feet to go sit in front of her mirror and she sat there just staring at herself.

"I’m really ugly, my hairs a stupid shade of blonde and it’s long and stringy, my face is fat. Not to mention I’m probably the stupidest person I know. I can see why Mamoru would want to be awake from me… Ahhh"
She whimpered as pain racked through her like someone was ripping something out of her. She laid her head on her desk and got a hold of herself. She looked at herself and thought about her friends, family, Mamoru, Chibi-Usa. Out of all the people she knows only her parents care about her. She took out some paper and decided to write to her friends and tell them why she did what she felt she should for now. After a few hours she had finally finished. She got a bag and got some clothes and other essentials out and packed them. She quickly ran down stairs hoping to avoid her family. But that would have been to easy as she was headed out the door. She bumped into her dad.

"Hey, honey you apologized yet?"

"Sorry I haven’t seen him yet. But I’ll do it when I get back."
(Gives her a questioning look.) "Where are you going?"

"I’m staying at a friends house."

She finished as she ran out of the door. She walked down the cool and darkening streets aimlessly not really sure where to go. She looked at her town once more, "A part of me still cares for them but another is truly hurt. I’ll leave them be. Maybe someday the conflict in my heart will disappear and I can just be happy for them instead of hold resentment." She whispered to herself, she felt like she was being nudged so she gave in and continued her long walk into the unknown.
