Sailor Moon Fan Fiction ❯ A Dozen Stories, and One Message ❯ It's Time for a Story, Obaasan ( Prologue )
Disclaimer: I own Sailor Moon? You have GOT to be kidding.
This is my very first Sailor Moon fanfic, so please be kind and review. *Peeks out* Please?
"Please, Obaasan? Tell us a story!"
The elderly woman laughed, as the faces of her family looked back at her. They were all gathered in her library, now, looking at her expectantly. It was quite a large and wonderful family to have. Most of the adults sat in plush chairs, or sofas around the fireplace and the children sat at her feet.
