Sailor Moon Fan Fiction ❯ Pegasus Soars The Skies ❯ Training begins! Flower girl of the circus, CereCere! ( Chapter 12 )

[ A - All Readers ]

"Okay Goten, we make a right at the flower shop, right?" Trunks said
again. Goten looked at the older boy.

"Um...I think..." He sheepishly said. Trunks smacked his forehead.

"You idiot! You forgot to directions to the palace didn't you!" He
accused. Goten smiled nervously.

"Uh, yea..." He said. Trunks lunged at his friend, ready to choke him.
Goten scrambled away and ran, with Trunks on his trail. They ran
through the city, firing blasts at one another. Goten tried staying
ahead of his buddy, and took to the air. Trunks followed.

"You stupid little...!" Trunks shouted, and grabbed Goten in the air,
landing on the ground with him.

"Let go Trunks!" Goten shouted. Trunks squeezed. The force was enough
to break a persons bones. The boys were too busy fighting to hear the
figures behind them sneak up, and it was too late when they were
knocked out...

In the Present...

"So they don't know Goten has Pegasus anymore." Bulma said. Rini
nodded.

"Advantage, us!" She said. Vegeta looked at them.

"And what makes you say that?" He asked. Rini looked up at him.

"Well, if they don't' know who has Pegasus, then they won't find him,
since he's in the future!" She said. Gohan nodded at the logic in
that.

"So who was the girl you fought yesterday?" Bulma asked. Gohan tried
to remember. He remembered the odd hair style...the odd uniform...

"Uh...JunJun, I think." He said. Rini had taken a deck of cards out
and was making a house of cards, out of boredom. Vegeta had apparently
left and there was nothing to do, but look for the Circus again.

"Lovely..." Gohan muttered and stood to leave. But the Saiyan Hybrid
didn't make it far. Rini had tackled him to the ground and was now
sitting on his back.

"I wanna go swimming!" She cheerfully said. Gohan had a mental picture
in his head of him tying the young Lunarian Princess to an anchor and
tossing it into the ocean. He smiled at the idea. That is, until she
grabbed his hair and pulled.

"If you don't wanna go bald you will take...me...SWIMMING!" She
shouted into his ear. Gohan pulled her off and stood.

"Fine, fine. Go get changed..." He said. Rini ran off.

"Goten, I hope you're as miserable as I am..." He said to the air...

In the Future...

"Wow! Look at all the food! Is it for us?" Goten asked one of the men
who had knocked him and Trunks out earlier. He nodded. The men were
suspiciously keeping their faces hidden, but when the boys saw the
food they didn't care and started pigging out. The elder man whispered
to the younger one and they laughed a little.

"Don't worry, her majesty will be here shortly." The younger man said.
It went in one ear and out the other. Serenity walked in and watched,
amused.

"I had forgotten how entertaining it was to see Saiyan's eat." She
said, smiling. Goten dropped his plate on the table and turned to see
Neo Queen Serenity! He smiled and hugged her. One of the men stepped
in to stop him, and the other held him back.

"Serena, you're okay! I'm sorry I followed! I know I shouldn't have,
but I was scared! Can ya forgive me?" He asked with tears in his face.
Serenity looked at him.

"Of course I can Goten. So what brings you here?" She asked. Trunks
set his on plate down.

"Miss Mei'oh sent us. She said we needed to train with the Crystal."
He said. The younger man spoke up.

"We found them fighting in the city limits. We had to knock 'em out."
He said. Serenity looked at him.

"You've always been protective of me. Tell me though, where is your
brother?" She asked. The elder man spoke.

"Giving Pluto a break." He said. Serenity sighed.

"Oh well. As kind as always." She said.

"Not to the Princess." The younger man pointed out. Serenity nodded.
Goten tugged on her dress. Serenity kneeled down to him.

"Serena, when do we start training?" He asked...

In the Present...

Gohan and Rini walked into the pool area. Rini was humming to herself
and walked to the wading pool. Gohan plopped down into a pool chair in
the shade and laid back. Rini could be a brat sometimes. And sometimes
her temper outmatched Vegeta's. If that was possible. Gohan looked
around and spotted a girl with wavy shoulder-length purple hair sun
bathing.

"She looks a little like Serena." He thought to himself and shrugged
it off. He then spotted a girl with a hair style as odd as that
JunJun's spying on the girl. She had two pigtails looped up on the
sides and two longer pigtails streaming down in the back. They had
poofs on the end like JunJun's, but they were oval shaped. She had
roses in her Pink Hair, and wore a long coat.

"That's an odd way to dress in this weather." He said softly. He put
his sunglasses on and pretended to go to sleep, but he was watching
every move the girl made. He then noticed she was carrying a picture
like that JunJun had! He realized this new girl was from the circus
and after the other girl!

"Not good..." He whispered. As the girl with purple hair got up to
leave Gohan saw the enemy follow. He trailed after them. Once in the
shadows he pressed his watch, becoming the Great Saiyaman. The enemy
walked up behind the girl.

"Excuse me ma'am, but what time is it?" She asked. The older girl
looked at her, then at her own watch.

"It's..." She began, but was interrupted. A pink orb floated before
the enemy, revealing her Amazon girl outfit.

"It's time to give me Pegasus!" She said and twirled her pool stick
around, bringing it before the orb.

"Pink ball, front pocket!" She called, striking it through the older
girl. She collapsed, leaving a dream Mirror.

"Oh no! It's not gold!" She cried and held her pool stick up. Gohan
flew over and backhanded the Amazon girl. She fell to the ground and
jumped back up.

"Not again!" She shouted and cursed at Gohan. Gohan went to hit her
again, but she jumped away.

"My name is CereCere!" She informed him and vanished.

Back in the future...

"So we get to start our training?" Trunks asked, shifting his green Gi
into a comfortable position. Goten tied the belt to his. Serenity held
her crystal and nodded.

"Though, I will not be training you personally. I will at the end of
your training. Two very special people to this time will be." She
said, tossing her crystal to the men behind her. Both stepped out of
the shadows, allowing the boys to see their faces for the first time.
Trunks eyes widened.

"You're..." He said...
