Description
It all seemed to be normal in the Senshi house. Priscilla was shouting at everyone and everything. Sonia was trying to calm her down, to no avail. Andrew was trying to set fire to 1800-IDIOCY's Team Aqua costume, and 1800-IDIOCY was crying her eyes out as she tried to snatch it back. Then suddenly, everybody turned
silent as the phone rang.
"Hello?" Sonia answered. There was a short pause, and then Sonia raised one eyebrow and held the phone out.
"Saj, it's your mum" she said. Saj's eyes widened.
"My mom?" she asked. Sonia nodded, and Saj took the phone from her.
"Hi" she said. All of the Senshi watched Saj's face carefully as she talked to her mum. Saj's mum then said something that was obviously a huge shock-because Saj's body tensed, her eyes widened to about the size of basketballs, her hair stood on end and her glasses slid off her face.
"Um......." was all she could say. "I guess, Mom....but I....I doubt you know how badly that's going to affect everyone else.....well.....bye"
She then hung up.
"What's wrong, Saj?" Nat asked.
"What did your mum say?" 1800-IDIOCY added. Saj looked at everyone in the eyes-and then fled to her room in a flood of tears.
"Wow" Hitokiri whispered. "Something's up"
"No shit!" Nat said sarcastically. Hitokiri glared, but said nothing else.

Very late into the night, Sonia was asleep. She was so asleep that she didn't even notice when a small person pushed her bedroom door open, and crept over to her.
"Sona-chan" the person whispered. It was 1800-IDIOCY. "It may sound ridiculously childish....but I can't sleep"
Sonia mumbled something, but didn't wake up.
"I can't sleep because I'm worried about Saj" 1800-IDIOCY continued. "She's been sitting up in bed for the entire night, and something is really bothering her. I just know it. Sona-chan, I'm really worried!"
"Two and one half badgers, please" Sonia mumbled.
"What?!" 1800-IDIOCY cried. "You're not even listening to me! Wake up, dammit!"
Sonia slowly opened her eyes, and did a double take when she saw the furious 1800-IDIOCY staring at her.
"What's wrong, kiddo?" she asked. "Why are you so pissed off?"
"Because you're not listening to me, Sonia!" 1800-IDIOCY snapped.
"Well, what did I miss out on? I was asleep, like a normal person!"
"I'm worried about Saj" 1800-IDIOCY said grumpily. "But I'm not telling you why, caus' you won't listen to me!"
"Kiddo, I will!" Sonia sighed, but 1800-IDIOCY had already stormed out of the room. Sonia sighed heavily and rolled over to face the wall.
"She has the temper of a three year old sometimes" she sighed. "Well.....it makes me wonder what she was worried about"
She finally shrugged it off and went back to sleep.

The next morning, however...
"Saj, you look AWFUL!" Sonia exclaimed. "Are you all right?!"
"I'm.....I'm fine" Saj whispered. That was when 1800-IDIOCY lost her temper.
"No, you're not!" she yelled, jumping onto the table and pointing at Saj accusingly. "You stayed up the entire night worrying about something! I SAW YOU! NOW SPIT IT OUT BEFORE I HAVE TO KILL YOU!"
"You're going to kill me anyway" Saj said, tears formings in her eyes. "Because my family's moving to China thanks to my dad's job....and....they want me to.....come with them....and I'm not coming back until about 2013....."
About twenty seconds passed-and then the news hit home.

Sonia's mouth dropped open and she dropped the stack of plates she was holding.
"WHAT?!" she cried, completely ignoring the fact that her foot had a gigantic shard of glass/porcelain/whatever stuck in it and was starting to bleed.
1800-IDIOCY was so shocked that she fell backwards off the table, and Priscilla had to catch her.
"SAJ!" she screamed. "NO!"
"Say WHAT now?!" Nat, Kim and Hitokiri exclaimed. "NO WAY!"
Even Andrew was somewhat upset. But it was 1800-IDIOCY who was having the mental breakdown.
"The Senshi!" she said shakily. "They'll only be eight of us!"
"You can always replace me" Saj said in a tiny voice.
"The only person who can be Sailor Normal is Sailor Normal herself, and that's YOU!" 1800-IDIOCY cried. "No one else can ever be as good as you, Saj! You can't leave!"
"That's not fair to the Senshi, Saj!" Mikaela added angrily. Saj finally stood up, and slammed her palms onto the table.
"NO!" she yelled. "What do you think is more important, my real family or my duties as a Senshi?! I can't help what's happened!"
And with that, she fled to her room and slammed the door.
"No" Sonia whispered. "This....this can't be"

Later that day, Saj fell asleep on her bed. She had been asleep for about an hour, when...
"SAAAAAAJ!" 1800-IDIOCY yelled, jumping onto the bed. "WAAAAAAKE UP!!!!!"
"No" Saj grumbled. "Go away!"
"No" 1800-IDIOCY said firmly. "I want to talk to you"
"All you're gonna do is tell me not to leave" Saj snapped. "I have no choice about it, ok?!"
"But Saj" 1800-IDIOCY whispered. "We've done so many cool things as Senshi...despite all the shit and near death experiences, we've done so many cool things as Senshi...you really can't leave!"
"Why not?" Saj sighed.
"Because nobody can be Sailor Normal but Sailor Normal herself! And that's you, Saj!" 1800-IDIOCY said tearfully. "There'll never be anybody as good as you!"
"Oh, it'll be fine" Saj sighed. "It'll make pairing up so much easier, y'know"
"Yeah, but...you don't see what I'm trying to get across to you!" 1800-IDIOCY cried.
"And I don't think I want to" Saj said. "We still have plenty of time before I leave"
"That's NOT THE POINT!" 1800-IDIOCY yelled, leaping up angrily. "You are failing to see the point here! I think I'm just wasting my time trying to nail it into you-so I'm not going to bother!"
With that, she stormed out of the room.
"PMS much?" Saj muttered.

For the rest of the day, nobody really said much. 1800-IDIOCY was so angry that she didn't want to speak, for fear of snapping at the wrong person. And getting beaten up for doing so. Everybody else was too shocked to say anything. The only person who dared to speak was Sonia, but even she didn't say much.
"I'm sure she'll change her mind" she said, when Saj wasn't around.
"She has no choice" 1800-IDIOCY spat. "She told me"
"Oh"
"How can she NOT have a choice in this sort of thing?!" Priscilla asked. "She lives with us, and technically us adults are responsible for what she does!"
"Ah, but we're not related to her" Sonia pointed out. "And that is the fatal flaw in that logic"
"Dammit!" Priscilla cried.
"But still, I'm not sure what we're all so pissy about" Hitokiri shrugged. "It's still ages until she has to leave"
"SO?!" 1800-IDIOCY, Priscilla, Kim and Nat yelled. Hitokiri threw her hands up in frustration.
"All I'm saying is that you guys are overreacting!" she sighed, and stomped out.
"We are NOT!" 1800-IDIOCY yelled after her. "It's all Saj's fault!"
"It is not!" Sonia snapped. "Don't say things like that!"
It was at that moment that Mikaela felt the need to contribute to the conversation.
"Bitch!" she yelled happily. Everybody stopped arguing, and stared at Mikaela blankly.
"What?" Mikaela asked. "I had to say something!"
Sonia sighed. It was going to be one of those weeks...she just knew it.
