Neko Moon (Sailor Moon x Mystic Messenger)

Act 1 Koneko, Neko Moon

(Special thanks to @pessimisticotaku whose drawing was the inspiration for this entire fanfic)

Nyanamine Koneko's morning started like any other normal day. She barely woke up to her alarm, got ready for school, and ran to school as not to be late. But now, the whole "normal" part is about to end...

"Meroooooooow!" 'The heck? That sounded like a dying cat.' Well it was a cat, but fortunately it wasn't dying. A white cat with blue eyes and a bandaid on it's forehead was surround by a group of children. The cat seemed to want to get away.

"Begone, midgets!" Koneko said shooing the elementary schoolers away. Once all the brats were gone she then squatted down to access the bandaid situation.

"Well this seems like a sticky situation! Hahah-uuggghhhh," Even the Persian cat looked annoyed by the really amazing pun.

"Don't give me that look," Koneko already knew the joke was bad, she didn't need any sass from this random cat. Well that's something she never thought she would think.

Carefully as to not hurt the cat, Koneko pulled off the bandaid. As soon as the bandaid was off the cat tried to scratch Koneko. But luckily Koneko has cat-like reflexes and managed to dodge the cat's claws! Yeah, no, she got scratched twice.

The cat jumped up onto a wall and stared at Koneko. That was when she noticed how odd it is for such a fancy looking cat to be roaming the streets, Persians aren't usually strays.

Koneko finally remembered that she was late and started running to the school building, temporarily forgetting all about the cat.

...

After school Koneko heard several girls talking about a sale at the jewelry store one of their moms owned. Koneko loves shiny things so she followed the girls to the store, keeping a far enough distance that it didn't look creepy, but it probably did anyway. Unfortunately for Koneko even if she wanted to buy something and not just look she wouldn't be able to afford anything even with the sale, so she left pretty quickly.

"I would actually have money if I didn't spend forty dollars on a cat plushie! What's wrong with me?" Koneko ranted to herself not realizing someone actually heard her.

"Did you really spend forty dollars on a stuffed animal?" Koneko stopped walking, surprised by a voice she never heard before.

Koneko turned around to face this mystery man... 'Oh no he's hot.' He was Korean, looked to be in his early twenties, had red hair, golden/amber eyes, and was hot. The man was wearing jeans and a zip-up hoodie despite the fact it was actually kind of warm outside. Recomposing herself Koneko answered the man's question.

"Yes, and it was worth every penny." The man's neutral face showed hints of a smile, the only response Koneko got to her statement.

"Uh, well...bye then." Koneko didn't know what else to say so she just awkwardly backed away.

The red-haired man watched Koneko as she practically ran away. When she was no longer in his vision he looked over at the jewelry store she exited not too long ago.

"This jewelry shop is one of the largest in the city. Could it be here? The Legendary Crystal."

...

"*le dramatic sigh*" Koneko didn't feel like going home yet. Suddenly a poster in a window of one of the shops catches Koneko's eyes! The poster was advertising a new game at the game center.

"Huh, I've haven't been to the game center in a while." There she is Koneko Master Procrastinator. She had barely have any homework anyway.
