Harmony of the moon

What? Usagi is a pony?

        A small white unicorn with a blonde mane woke up with a stretch and a yawn, “MMMMMMMM, what a beautiful day,” She said, before looking around the hill that she was on, “Wait...where am I? This isn’t my house, and this isn’t Juban! Where...what happened to me?” The young mare asked, trying to sort out her thoughts. Getting up, she looked to the small village at the bottom of the hill she stood upon. As she stood up, her body felt weird and a little different. It was as if she was standing on her hands and legs at the same time. She shook her head at the notion, figuring it was probably just her imagination or a delirium brought on by a teleport. Looking back at the village, she decided to walk down to it to find out where she is. Taking her first few steps, she began to feel even weirder, as if her body was working differently than normal. Moving what she had assumed to be her her arm to her face she saw that, in place of a hand, she now had a snow white hoof. In shock she took a few awkward steps to the side and began to tumble down the hill and into the town. As she got up she turned to a nearby window and got a good look at her face, “I’M A PONY?!”

        This is Usagi Tsukino, she is 16 years old and a bit of a crybaby. However, she is secretly a warrior for love and justice, Pretty Soldier Sailor Moon.

Pretty Soldier Sailor Moon: Equestrian adventures

Ch.1: WHAT? Usagi is a pony?

        Usagi took a few steps back, the shock of her new body taking over her mind, “W...What happened to me, how did I get like this,”  the thoughts continue to streak through Usagi’s mind as she began to walk away from the reflective window in shock and try to get used to the new body. Luckily for her, getting used to walking on all fours seemed to come rather easy to her, as if she was doing it all of her life. She took a look at the town that laid behind the building, and began to wonder if the people who lived there would have some answers. Walking through the town, she began to take note of the buildings and the rumbling of the early morning workers getting their stores ready. As she headed deeper into the town, she felt her stomach rumbling reminding her that she had not eaten any breakfast, looking up she saw a small house that looked like a gingerbread house. Guided by her stomach, she quickly ran to the store and inside of it, looking at all of the treats on the counter, “ Oh my gosh look at all of the good food and...” she raised her head to look at the Pink pony with a bouncy pink mane looking over at her from the counter, “you’re a pony.”

“YEP! For as long as I can remember,” She then let out a huge gasp as she looked at the white unicorn. “OH! A new pony! Hi! MY name is Pinkie Pie and welcome to Sugar Cube Corner, Oh I have got to get a party for you to show you around town, not to mention introducing you to everypony.”



        
        “How can this be happening, turned into a pony for some reason and sent into a world with ponies in it. How did I even get here and,” Usagi looked at her flank to take note of a gold cresent shaped cutie mark, “What is that?”

 The pink pony looked down at the mark on Usagi’s flank and gasped, “A moon cutie mark! How did you get it? Are you related to the princesses, do you work for them? Are you an astronaut,”Pinkie was about to go on when she was interrupted  by the sound of the door opening and the arrival of a violet unicorn The young mare walked into the store with her bags on her sides, looking around to see what to buy. Turning around she noticed the Usagi talking to the pink mare.

“Oh hello, you must be new. I’m Twilight Sparkle, and you are?”

“Oh, I am Usagi Tsukino, please to meet you all.” She said, bowing to the ponies.

“OH! A Neighponese pony, this is fantastic! I’ve always wanted to study the cultures of other countries. If you have the time, i’d like to hear about your people in detail some time,” She stopped herself for a moment, thinking of how off track she was getting, “Sorry about that. So what brings you to Equestria?”

Usagi was lost in herself for a moment, taking in all of her new features such as her horn, “A unicorn? This is so cool,” She looked at the unicorn, trying to figure out the answer to Twilight’s question, “I don't really know. I fell asleep on my couch and then I awoke on a hill just outside of town.”
Twilight arched an eyebrow, curious at this little bit of knowledge, “You...just teleported here? Without anyone else doing it or with you knowing about it?”

“Yeah,” Usagi said starting to wonder if she was just brought over here with a bit memory loss because she was having a hard time believing her own story, “but I was a human just yesterday, I know it. I am sorry, but I have no idea how I got here or why.

 Twilight looked at Pinkie and then back to Usagi, “Well, maybe while we walk you can tell me all about yourself and maybe it will help jog your memory.”

Usagi nodded in happy agreement and grabbed some muffins from the counter. Turning around to follow the unicorn, Usagi realized that she forgot to pay, “I am sorry, I don't have any money.”

“Its on the house, so don't worry! Just promise me that you will have so much fun at the party later,” Pinkie said.

“Party?!” Usagi said, with a mix of excitement and curiosity.

“Don’t worry, you’ll see soon enough,” Twilight said as she walked out the door, Usagi in tow. The two ponies walked down the road, their conversation being mainly Twilight asking about Neighpon and its people and Usagi responding in kind to the best of her ability.

As their walk continued, a few thoughts began to enter Usagi’s head, “I am a Unicorn, a UN-I-CORN! This is so cool. I wonder what cool magic I can do, or what cool spells I can summon. Its a shame I don't have wings though, I wish I could fly. Oh if only Rei and the...” Once she began to think of her friends, she began to hang her head down.Taking a deep breath, she sighed as she stared at the ground.

        “Is something wrong,” Twilight stopped asking questions as she she stood next to Usagi, putting her hoof onto Usagi’s shoulder.

        “Its my friends,” Usagi sniffled a little.

.        Twilight looked at Usagi, “What happened?”

        “Its just that, I realized that I have no idea if my friends came here with me. I could be all alone out here without them.” Usagi also began to think of the one closest to her, someone who could never be replaced.

“Don’t worry,” Twilight said, lending Usagi a comforting hoof on the shoulder, “They’ll be here to see you soon, I’m sure,” Twilight then looked at Usagi’s neck and saw a pink pendant, “What’s that pendant?”

        Usagi looked down at her neck, seeing the pink pendant held by a golden necklace. Seeing it flooded her with memories of her friends and lover fighting together, standing as one, “Oh, this? Its my...”

“HELP! SOMEPONY HELP ME!!!! OH Twilight, there you are, I need your help,” A pony with an orange mane yelled as she ran down the street.

“Carrot top? What’s the matter?” Twilight asked.

“Come with me, I’ll show you!” Carrot top said as she led Twilight back down where she came from, Usagi deciding to follow right behind them. The three ran through the straight streets of Ponyville, passing several vendors and ponies until they reached the outskirts of the town, near a forested area. Just a few feet away lay Carrot top’s garden, currently being ravaged by a large rock beast. It resembled a dragon without wings. Its red eyes showing that the creature wanted to destroy and crush the small farm. It began to swipe its large stone claws across the ground as it let out a large roar.

        Twilight lit up her horn and turned to Carrot Top, “Run!”and then turned to fire a magic bolt into the drake’s head, knocking a few stones from the top and side. The drake shook its head as it reeled back from the shot. Turning to where the blast came from, he saw Twilight and Usagi. He reared up and roared, showing the mossy underbelly. It stomped slowly towards Twilight, closing the distance with only a few steps so it could take a swipe at her with it’s claws. Twilight bearly had time to jump away from the monster’s attack.

I’ve got to help her...but” Usagi then looked down at her pendant, “Will my powers even work here? There's only one way to find out!” Grabbing her pendant around her neck with a hoof, she lifted it into the air.

“WHAT ARE YOU DOING, RUN!” Twilight said, as she jumped away from the beast’s second swipe, getting a long cut on her foreleg and landing a few feet away.

“MOON CRISIS POWER! MAKE UP!” With a yell a bright, blinding flash came over the white unicorn. Once the bright light diminished, Usagi stood there now dressed in a sailor uniform with a small skirt around her flank. Her two buns on top of her head with red gems to match the color of the tiara that now adorned her head, “ I have no idea who you are, but you are ruining that poor pony’s harvest!l Ruining innoncent pe-I mean ponies’ livelihoods is something I cannot forgive.” The monster turned to Usagi, growling a little as it took a few steps towards its loud prey. Rearing his claws, he slashed them at Usagi,, but she jumped out of the way,  “I am the pretty soldier of love and justice! SAILOR MOON!” Placing her forehooves over one another, “And in the name of the moon, I’ll punish you!”  The monster roared in response.

“Sailor...moon?” Twilight asked as she watch the pony describe herself.

“Yep, now watch me.” Usagi then channeled her magic through her horn instinctively, and used it to levitate her tiara. It began to glow in the grip of the magic, and then turned into a spinning disc of light  as she turned her head to throw it. “Moon Tiara ACTION!” the spinning disc then flew through the air, hitting the monster in the head and making it stumble back a little before letting loose one final roar before disappearing into a puff of smoke..
 
        Usagi watched the creature turned into nothing more than smoke from the attack, and then looked down. One part of her was happy to know that she still had her powers in this new world, but another part of her felt sad. Deep down, she wanted at least one place where the soldier was not needed. She sighed, and closed her eyes as she demorphed, letting her pony body to return to normal. Then she turned to Twilight, ready to do some explaining.

Twilight looked on in shock as to events that had happened, she had only wanted to immobilize the  rock drake, not kill it. Turning around fiercely, she was ready to start asking questions of the soldier; however, another thought began to enter her head ‘That drake, it’s part of the draconic species. Why was it rampaging mindlessly like that? Was it even living? How did it even get here?’ “Just what was that? How did you transmute your tiara like that? What was that spell you used to transform. and most importantly” Twilight’s next question had a little shake to it, still trying to process it, “did you just murder that thing?”

        Usagi’s eyes opened wide in shock at the question, she had never given much thought about the creatures that she had taken down in the past. They were evil, faceless apparitions with usually only one goal in mind and nothing more. She looked up at Twilight hoping to make her understand, “ I don't think I murdered it,” Turning her head to look where the beast once was, “I fought things like that before. They...they’re usually mindless beast who don't do anything but hurt others. If I thought there was anything good left in that thing, I would’ve tried to save it. Really,” Her eyes looked despondent, and hurt. She did not want to lose a potential friend and she did not want to think herself as a murderer, “I...I would have.”

        Twilight looked on at the white unicorn, noting the sadness in her eyes. She wanted to believe this young mare, but she also didn’t like the idea of destroying creatures. Then again, it left nothing but a wisp of smoke, as if it was created by something or conjured by a mage. “Ok,” unlike one of her friends, she was good at lying, “I understand, but I am still going to keep my eye on you. So, Sailor Moon? How did that happen?”

“Oh, that,” Usagi smiled, happy for the change in subject, “You see, about 2 years ago, I was walking down the street when I saw this black cat...”

Somewhere, deep in Whitetail wood, a small wisp of smoke appeared, coming from the body of the vanquished drake, “The Guinshuizo...I smell it,” It then flowed out slowly through the woods as a small dark whisp with a black hand. It saw a small blue bird, singing a soft song and grabbed it within its tendrils draining its life energy, until it was nothing more than a husk.
