I awoke rested and happy and washed up in the shower (I absolutely REFUSE to call it anything like a refresher). I put up my hair in their usual odango without looking or opening my eyes. When I finally did look in the mirror...
“AHH!” I screamed and ran out into the room behind the waterfall. I pointed to my newly purple and green hair. “Who did this?” Most of my hair was purple and two green stripes ran up and down my odango. Most of the girls stifled giggles.
“The boogie man?” Kyoko suggested. The Earth born girls laughed.
“This is not funny! Who did this?” I shouted angrily.
Numako laughed hysterically. “Nom and I it was! Admit it I do!”
“You and....Nom?” I gasped.
Numako giggled. “Yes, yes, Nom and I it was!”
“You I get but....Nom?!?” I asked, glancing at the ever-serious Dathomirian.
“Yes. I helped her while she changed your hair color,” Nom explained steadily. “The exercise was so I could try to understand why all of you think things like this are so....humorous.” She looked me up and down, then went back to her game. “However, I still do not understand.”
“This was an exercise?” I screamed. “An EXERCISE??!?!?!?!”
“Yes,” Nom replied without looking up from her sabaac game.
“GYAH!” I yelled. A bright light erupted after I yelled, disturbing everyone but especially the Force sensitive, I noticed.
Annika stepped up and patted me on the shoulder. “Calm down. Why don’t you lie down for a while?”
“Not normal was that,” Numako said, stunned.
“It was similar to a Force-storm,” Nom added as I left to my room.
The first thing I did was put down my hair. Numako and Nom had placed the stripes very carefully so they would go around my odango exactly. I tried to re-dye my hair various colors, but all I got was light purple, blue, green and even pink, until I gave up and changed it back to purple and green. Then I took action...
I took some old clothes I had and wrapped them up over my hair into a turban. There! Now no one could see my weird colored (to me) hair!
However...
“Mika, you look ridiculous!” Kyoko said when she saw me. “Take that thing off, we have work to do! Sailor Sith showed up to steal food at a store here on Coruscant.”
I sighed, reluctantly taking off my turban. Once I morphed, I felt different.
“Gyah! I’m a cat!” I shouted, looking at myself in a window reflection. “A cat in a fuku!”
Sailor Naboo looked at me, trying not to laugh. “A purple and green cat in a fuku.”
“A beautiful purple and green cat in a fuku, baby,” Solai purred, trotting in. I hissed and put out my claws.
He stepped back. “Whoa, calm down ba--”
“Call me ‘baby’ one more time and you’ll be a tailless cat,” I threatened. He ran off.
“Now, why are you a cat?” Naboo asked.
“I am the Senshi of Cats, so...”
“Let’s go!” someone shouted to us. I attempted a shrug and ran off after Naboo.
When we got to the store, the Sailor Sith were busy attacking customers.
When one (I always forget their names) saw me, she laughed.
“A cat! Look, a cat is gonna beat us! HA!” she said, nudging another Sailor Sith.
“Don’t listen, Sailor Yavin IV,” Sailor Naboo said.
This made most of the Sailor Sith laugh harder. “A great Sailor Jedi, a CAT?”
I was getting mad, I’ll admit. The anger of getting laughed at continuously was humongous. I felt a power I needed to shout, a new offense...
“Nine Lives Scratch!” I shouted. Nine large claws came and scratched the Sailor Sith a lot, then the Sailor Sith transported back to...where ever they came from (without the stolen food--yea!)
Back at the room behind the waterfall, I found I could morph into a cat at
will by saying “Cat Senshi Power Make-Up!” Also, after morphing and
unmorphing, I got my blond hair back.
Now I was gonna pull a little mischief...
The Next Morning....
I was eating breakfast when two separate screams came about.
Numako and Nom ran from their rooms, shouting. Nom especially looked rather out of....character.
“My hair...is...PINK!” Nom shouted.
“My hair, purple it is!” Numako said.
I giggled--a little too loudly.
“You--” Nom started.
“Chill out, girls,” I laughed. I tossed them each a bottle of special shampoo. “It’ll wash out.” Nom stormed off, and Numako laughed lightly.
“A good joke that was,” she said. “Very humorous.”
“Thanks,” I said. “Now, in case of retaliation by Nom...Cat Senshi Power, Make Up!”
In cat form, I skedaddled to a secret grotto where Schylar and Solai hang out. It's really nice and quiet, cool, soft....
