"I can't believe we almost let them get away last night," Rei complained to Makoto. "If baka Usagi hadn't gotten there so late..."
Makoto looked up, eyes wide. Behind Rei, stood Usagi. "Ano..."
"Ne?
"I told you, Rei-chan! My grandmother was in the hospital and we were there!" Usagi explained. "It wasn't like I could ask the youma to attack closer to me!"
Unshed tears glistened in her eyes. She was tired of being treated so horribly by Rei. The others too, but none of them were as bad as the Miko.
"Well, if you were busy, you could've told us not to call you, and we could've finished it off on our own."
Makoto tried to get Rei to shut up by stepping on her foot under the table. She could see the pain in Usagi's eyes. "It's all right, Usagi-chan, just let us know next time."
"Un..."
"Yeowch! What was that for?"
"Rei-chan..." Makoto started, only to look up and see Usagi walking away.
"Nani?" Rei narrowed her eyes.
"Usagi-chan, matte!" Usagi turned to face her, tears now streaming down her face. Makoto was too shocked to say anything more. Rei's comments had never reduced her to tears before.
Rei felt a twinge. "Usagi-chan, gomen. It's not your fault you're inherently late for everything."
"Rei-chan, if that's an apology, I'd hate to hear you say something mean," Usagi bit off, leaving without another word.
"..." Rei didn't know what to say to that. Makoto stifled a giggle. A speechless Rei was rather amusing. "What's so funny?" Rei glared at Makoto.
"Watching you standing there like a fish with it's mouth open would make anyone laugh!"
"Well, I was trying to be nice, and she just walked away."
"Nice?" Makoto asked, shaking her head. "Rei-chan, you were picking on her again. Usagi-chan is very good about holding her feelings in and today you were the straw that broke the camel's back!"
"Well, I didn't mean anything by it, you know that."
"I know, but she doesn't." The brunette sighed. "Come on, it's late, we'd better go home and get some sleep."
"Yeah, I guess. I've gotta be up at 4 AM for meditations."

Usagi slowly walked past the Juuban National Bank. She new Rei was joking, but her rudeness had gotten deep into Usagi's soul. It hurt her so much that the girl she regarded as her best friend didn't believe in her. Usagi vowed to prove it to her, as well as her other friends. Her head snapped up at the sound of breaking glass.
Looking in the windows of the bank, she saw two black figures sneaking around... and they weren't bankers!
*Hrm... this could be my chance! I can be just like Sailor V...* With a nod, Usagi went into the alley and transformed. "Moon Crystal Power, Make Up!"

"Give us the cash and nobody gets hurt!"
"And you, clean out that vault!"
"I don't think so!"
"Who's there?!"
The two looked towards the front and saw a young girl with pigtails and a very short skirt. "I am the pretty suited soldier of love and justice, Sailor Moon! Tsukini kawatte, oshiokyo!"
"Listen, girlie, you picked the wrong time to get some money for candy."
"I'm not here for money, I'm here to subdue you evil men and turn you in to the police! Now drop that gun, I'm not afraid to use this!" Sailor Moon held her tiara, which was now in the shape of a discus, in her hand.
"Ooh, she's gonna hit us with a Frisbee."
Noticing that they weren't going to take her seriously, Moon aimed for the guy holding the gun. "Moon Tiara Action!" she cried. The tiara sailed through the air, sliced the gun in two and returned to her waiting hand. Before they could recover from the shock, she barreled towards them. "Sailor Kick!"
The men were too slow in moving out of the way, and they both got heelprints in their forehead.
Moon grinned with satisfaction, as the two men were out cold. She looked at the teller, who was staring at her in shock. "Daijobu?"
"Ha--hai..."
"Yokatte!" she said with a smile.
Police sirens were going off and Sailor Moon did not want to sit around for questioning. Besides, she had a Senshi meeting to attend. "I've got to go, Sayonara!"
"Arigatou! Demo, who are you?"
"A friend." With that, she leapt away.
