Victoria Sat in the back of her dad's Suzuki XL-7 parked in the driveway. "Sorry, Ash," She said through her cell phone, "Dad says I have too. I know, I always talk to them over the internet, they know how I'm doing." "'Kay Vicky," her dad climbed in, followed by her mom and her sister after they put the dogs in the back. "Time to put the phone away." Victoria sighed, "I gotta go Ashley. Yeah, talk to you when I can. Bye." She hung up the phone. "Why do we have to drive there? Why do we even have to go in the first place?" Her mom turned around, "You used to love seeing your cousin and his wife." She said. "I was seven and stupid," She said. And on that note, they started for Florida.

Kayla sighed to herself, She had spent the last ten minutes trying to get Usagi up and ready for school. She hated school herself growing up, so she understood completely how she felt. But, Usagi had chances she didn't.
"Come on Usagi, its time to get up." Kayla said shaking the girl for god knows how many times.
"But, mama.." Usagi replied half asleep. "I don't want to go to school."
"You have no choice." Kayla replied she she removed the covers from her daughtor's sleeping form.
"Mama, that was mean!" Usagi yelled as she sat up in bed. "I'm up..." Usagi finished as she soon got up. She then noticed the flashing numbers on her alarm clock. No wonder why her mother was trying so hard to get her out of bed.
Kayla had gone into the kitchen to get Usagi's breakfast. Her husband, George, had left already, being his boos left him to manage. At times he hated it, but times like this, the money in his paycheck was more impotant than the cash in his pocket.
After, some time, Usagi had eaten and gone off to school. Kayla then begun the housework. Mormally after Usagi was off at school, Kayla would take a nap. But, not today. She was expecting some people from George's side of the family to arrive, and she wanted the place to look lived in, not a train wreck.

"So how long is this trip anyway?" Victoria asked as they were boarding the plane. "Well, we're getting off in Kansas," Her mom said, "That should take up half the day. then from there, we take another plane to Florida, then we get a rental to your cousin George's place." "Brilliant," Victoria said with her usual sarcastic tone she used when she was pissed, "how is it that you guys can find every way imaginable to toture me?"

Kayla had gotten the house work done in half the time she thought it would take. Usagi wouldn't be home from school for quite some time, and neither would George. In fact, she didn't know when to expect thease people. She hopped it wouldn't be too late by the time they got here.

"Didn't they just have a kid?" Victoria asked. "They adopted a girl a couple years ago, yes," her mom answered, "she's about your age too."

kayla thought that she would take advange of the quiet. She went to lie down and take a nap. Precious her orange cat, decied to join her on the bed while she napped. She had little trouble falling asleep.
A few hours later her cell phone rang. It was Usagi informing her mother that she had missed the school bus. "Take the votran home." she instructed.
"But mom-" Usagi started to argue.
Kayla had cut her off, "George won't get off for two more hours. You'll have to take the bus or sleep there allnight. I won't send himout to get you again. We have a bus system, use it. If I can, so can you."

George had fallen asleep on the couch. He had been watching T.v. with Kayla and Usagi. The T.v. had been a little loud, but not enough for the neibors to complain, but loud enough for George to hear. Usagi jumped up at the sound of the door and answered it. "Who is it?"

Usagi looked at Victoria in confusion wincing when she yelled at George. George had been startled awake and looked at the door. He scrambled off of the couch and over to the door. "come on in. and, vicky dear, don't shout. Some of the neighbors are sleeping or trying to."

"Hello George," Vicky's mom said kissing him on the cheek, "Hows my nephew been doing? And you must be Usagi. I've heard so much about you." "Rabbit?" Vicky asked herself.

"I'm fine," George said as he hugged each family member in turn. He then closed the front door seeing as Precious was getting the idea to run out to the front door. He often didn't attempt this, but once in a while.
"So what brings you all here?" Kayla asked seeing as George hadn't given her much info as to why they had come to vist.

"I thought I told you..." George said ashe looked over at Kayla.
Kayla just gave him a look, meaning she didn't want to start an argument over his forgetfulness. She smiled at them. Though she couldn't think of anything intelegent to say. "Usagi, why don't you show Vicky where she can put her things."
"You're making her share my room?" Usagi began, and Kayla started to glare at her. "OH Cool!" Usagi finishedasshestarted to think, about how coolit would be to have a friendher age, that happened to be family staying inher room.

As soon as she got into the room, Vicky sat down and whipped out her handy dandy cell phone. "Yay," she said, "service." She smiled at the little Sailor Mars wallpaper and began texting her friend again.
