Early Monday Morning, May 4th, 1992
Usagi groans quietly as she glares across the dining room table towards the kettle sitting on the stove. The house is too quiet.
While her mother did actually wake up even before the girl managed to get home from Kamakura with Makoto, it was the doctor's decision to keep Ikuko overnight, due to the unusual symptoms and the lack of discernible cause. Which means that it was just Usagi, Luna, and her father in the house last night, and the blonde never realized just how much noise the people she lived with made during the night, because the lack of those very noises prevented the girl from being able to sleep well.
Much to the girl's frustration, Ikuko agreed to undergo a few additional tests by a Doctor Ken Isoda, who thought that he might be able to discern the cause of the woman's collapse. Due to that, Ikuko wasn't being released from the hospital until her father got off of work in the afternoon.
However, for all of it's frustrations, that does mean that Ikuko is going to be at the same hospital as Shingo, which means that after Usagi completes her cunning plan that she can visit her Mom. There is a part of the girl that wants to apologize to her mom, but that would just raise questions that Usagi isn't quite ready to answer yet.
Thus, Usagi sits, glaring across the room as she nurses a cup of tea in one hand (A cup not made in the magical kettle, of course), slowly sipping at the sugar laden tea as she tries to draw herself out of the realm of exhaustion and into being fully awake.
"Morning." Kenji says with a yawn as he comes down the stairs into the living room. He looks to the young blonde, before giving a soft chuckle of his own. "Couldn't sleep well?" He asks. Usagi groans, shaking her head. "Me neither." He admits, "But, your mother is coming home tonight, and according to Doctor Isoda, there is a new medication that recently was approved by the Ministry of Health, and the Hospital is just the first in Tokyo to begin treatment. And given that the young and the elderly are receiving priority treatment... If we are lucky, then your brother will be back in here annoying you out of your mind before the end of the week."
Usagi smiles up at her father from where she lays her head on the table, and with a laugh, the man reaches down, ruffling the girl's hair. "So..." He starts, "Any plans for the day?"
"Thinking of going and hanging out with Naru for a bit," Usagi says, the words aren't exactly a lie, given that Usagi is planning on meeting with Naru first for the exact reason of making sure that she isn't lying to her father, but that doesn't make the words come out any easier, and admitting that she is planning on sneaking into the hospital in order to use magic to heal people is a definite no-go. "Then maybe swing by the Hospital and say hi to Mom before heading back to the house."
Kenji smiles, "I think that'll be good for her." He says, before glancing across the kitchen. "Do you have any plans for Breakfast?" He asks, and Usagi glances up at him. There is a clearly embarrassed look on his face. "I'm no good in the kitchen," He admits, "So if you're hungry, we can go out and get breakfast, and I'll drop you off at Naru's once we're done."

Regardless of whether or not Usagi had breakfast with her father, she finds herself at Naru's house not too long after. The red headed girl grumbles as she follows after Usagi. "Had I known that you were planning on doing this so early in the morning, I wouldn't have agreed." The girl grouses, her words interrupted by a yawn. "I'mma get you back for this." She says after a moment of standing still, blankly staring at the wall in her room. "I'mma give your first baby pink hair."
Usagi blinks at the statement, glancing at her friend for a long moment, before she wisely decides to put that statement to the side and ignore it. That is a thought that a more awake Usagi and a more awake Naru would have to talk about some time later. For now, the important thing is that Naru's mom sees the two hanging out before she heads down to work the store.
Tossing a quick wave to Mrs. Mayumi, Usagi helps the still half asleep Naru back to the girl's room, allowing the girl to collapse back on her bed. "You know," Usagi says, looking at the girl, "If you are planning on going back to sleep, you'd be more comfortable taking all of that off."
"Lat'r." Naru slurs out with a yawn, but her eyes are locked onto Usagi's. "Once yur gone." She explains a little further, a statement that makes Usagi blink in surprise, not exactly understanding what the girl means by that.
Naru giggles at the look on Usagi's face, waving the girl off. "Go help people, Superhero."
Slowly sliding the window to the girl's room open, Usagi lightly taps her brooch, a soft whisper of "Moon Prism Power, Make up!" transforming the girl, and somehow, given the whispered words, instead of the mighty flash of blinding light, instead all of Usagi's features are covered in a shimmer of kaleidoscopic color that wraps all around the girl for a moment, before fading away to reveal the form of Sailor Moon. Slipping out the window, Sailor Moon clings to the side of the building for a moment, slowing sliding the window closed, before she kicks off the wall, soaring up into the air, and across the road towards the rooftop of the building a block over.
