. Welcome to part three of "The Nuttcracker and Then some". same as
always. I do not own sailor moon so on with the show. Sailor Moon sez:
	"Heaven, the treasury of everlasting joy."	Shakespear,1564-1616  
	The sun was high in the sky as five girls walked along the streets of
Juban district, to the costume misstresses' studio. It was last Monday
of October and there was a definte chill in the air. Shops displayed
Halloween costumes and decorations. The leaves were turning brilant
colours of yellow, red and orange.
	"So Rei, what peice are you doing for the Halloween gala on Saturday
night?" Minako asked all the girls as they stoped at the Crown Arcade
for a quick cup of hot choclate, which was along the way to the costumestudio.
	"I'm going to do that peice I did last year with the flaminco guitre
and the red dress,how 'bout you Mako-chan" Rei stated as she paid for
her hot choclate.
	"I'm doing the Debussy peice I did for the graduation of the older
students this summer." Makoto said after she had finshed taking a sip
of the warm drink. "This is good Motoki, What did you put in it?" Sheasked
	The tall blonde hair waiter laughed, "Old family recipe. Very topsecret."
	"He mean, it's Cadbury hot choclate mix, " Usagi smiled as she paidfor hers.
	"Hey how'd you know!" Motoki exclaimed
	"I was working here last night, I had to make a few hot choclates for
some cold people." Usagi stated as she pointed to the work scedual onthe wall.
	"Oh!" Motoki said in shock
	The girls just laughed and then said goodbye. The sky had turned grey
while they were in the Arcade. As they neared the studio, Rei spoke up.
	"Hey Usagi, you never told us what you were doing for the gala?"
	"Oh, I was going to do the ballet peice I did for the graduation, but
I did that with Tsuan and she said she wanted to do the piece solo this
time." Usagi said with disapointment
	"That's too bad, I really like that peice. You two were great
together." Ami spoke up as she finshed a sip from the cup she nursed.
She treated it as if it were a bottle of gin.
	"Well how about the modern Jazz peice we used to get into the bogus
Nega-Verse, dance shcool(AN Just made up this incdent)." Minako stated
	"Hey that's perfect and I can use the silver leotard that my
grandmother just sent me!" Usagi exclaimed as she ran into thecostumer's.
@------------------------<-------------------------->-----------------------@
	Saturday finally roled around. 'And a good thing too' thought Usagi as
she tuged  the leotard into it's final resting place. Staring at
herself in the mirror, she noticed that the leotard was not anything
but see through. Thoughts of dred crossed her face as she tugged at the
barly there leotard. She thought about her father and what he would
think if he saw her in this. She sighed and went about putting on her
make-up and re-aranging her hair.  *Across the hall*
	Mamoru pulled the James's Dean like t-shirt over his head. Siting down
in front of the mirror, he grabed a little gel and began to give it a
little spike in the front. It's didn't take a lot to do that, since his
hair naturally did the spike thing. taking in a few deep breaths, he
wished so bad that his parents could be there to see how great he was.
His eyes all the sudden became misty. Shaking the tears, he heard his
stage call. 	He got up and headed for the door. Walking down the hall, a Lyrical
sandle hit him smack dab in the forhead.
	"Gomen," Said a voice that sounded all to familar
	He turned around rubing his head, he saw Usagi and her hair was not in
the usual golden buns, but in a french braid. Mamoru did not like this.
	"Whatch it next time Odango Atama." He said with a familar coldness
Usagi knew all to well, and handed the shoe to Usagi.
	She snatched the shoe from his hand, "That's Usagi, U-S-A-G-I. Get it
straight Baka. Right now I'm not wearing my hair in those alful balls,"
She said as she placed the hand holding the shoe on her hip and tapped
her other foot. 
	He laughed to himself. She was expected to do the hip and toe thing
every time she got made of him. He liked it. LIKED IT. 'Mamoru get a
hold of yourself, It's Usagi!' he thought as she stood there still
fumming. He glanced at her outfit. Silver in colour, it clung to her
still forming body. It was gazuy, gauzy enough to see through. It was
more opaque in the vital areas, but it showed off her stomach and her
neck and backside very nicely. He thought of all the  ballet's, man
ticket holders. Something rose in him. He couldn't quite describe it. 
	Usagi noticed the green flame, that flickered in his normally deepblue eyes. 
	" Mamoru, what's the matter?" She asked 
	He shook his head and turned to see a worried Usagi standing there
with a look of consern. He smiled at her and said, "I'm alright." 
	She nodded and then placed a hand on his arm and smiled. 
	"That's good and for next time please, it's Usagi not Odango Atama any
way I have to go on now." She said as she ran down the hall to the
round stage they were using.
	Mamoru laid his head against the door. The feelings he had just felt
were something new to him. It was like there was a monster inside his
head telling him that Usagi was his girl and his girl only. He shook
his head and contined on towards the stage.          
@------------------------<-------------------------->-----------------------@
	Mamoru stood off to the side. As soon as the music started, it sent a 
jolt of electricty to his head. He watched as Usagi danced. She was
more graceful then he thought. The way she twisted and moved sent his
nerves on fire. She steped lightly and bounced back up with ease. 
	'Man I wouldn't give to be dancing with her.' He thought
	Mamoru was jolted out of his trance by the sound coughing. He turned
to see Beryl coming up beside him. Her face was red and she wore a
scarf over her neck. 	"What's wrong with you?" He asked with sarcasm.
	"Ive godda code and won't be able to dance with you." she rasped and
then coughed.
	"Oh too bad," Mamoru said with a fake pout. 'And maybe I will get to
dance with Usagi.' he thought as he turned his attention back to Usagi.
To be continued.... Well there is part 3part 4 up next...
