All characters depicted are of 18 years of age or older.
“Ami’s gonna love this new swimsuit!” Usagi smiled and nodded as she presented the bright blue one-piece. Usagi, Rei, Minako, and Makoto all returned to the beach house as the twin-tailed blonde tried to radiate her positive energy with a bright, peppy voice.
“As long as she’s not too mad about the whole ‘stripping her naked and throwing her outside’ thing,” Minako put a hand to her chin, looking at the ground. “Poor girl’s probably so nervous right now…”
“That was *your* idea,” Rei crossed her arms with a low, judging eyebrow.
“Oh? Well… Yeah I guess, but you didn’t say anything when we were stripping her,” Minako looked back at Rei with a little sweatdrop.
“Thaaaat’s why we got her this apology swimsuit,” Usagi stepped between them while she held the outfit. “What we *all* did was kind of mean, so we have to make it right!” She gave a firm nod.
There was a silence before the raven-haired girl smiled. “Alright alright. Anyway, she should be fine,” Rei nodded. “This beach is really quiet in the morning. We’re the only ones here this early.” She smirked and nodded. “It’s not like we sent her out mid-day. THAT would have been going too far.”
“Oh, I almost forgot!” Usagi squeaked. “We agreed to split the bill for Ami’s suit! Mina, do you have the receipt? What do we owe you?”
“Oh! Umm…. let me check,” Minako said, fishing for a piece of paper out of her handbag.
Makoto sat in thought for a moment, eyes staring off into space before she looked up at the others. “You know, I’ve been thinking about something.”
The other three turned and looked at the taller brunette. “Huh? What is it, Mako?” Usagi blinked.
“Remember how the boardwalk had that arcade, and it had the claw machine full of plush dolls of, you know, us? Just, as the Sailor Guardians.” Makoto put a hand to her chin. “There’s all kinds of toys, video games, and dolls… do any of you see any money from that stuff?”
Rei and Usagi traded glances and blinked.
“No, I don’t,” said Rei.
“Me neither,” said Usagi.
There was a tiny giggle in the corner of the room coming from a certain blonde. Rei, Usagi, and Makoto all turned their attention to Minako, who had her hands clasped over her mouth. When the blonde looked at the others, her giggling slowed down. Three sets of eyes were focused on her.
The room fell to a dead silence.
Usagi crossed her arms. “Minako, do you know something about the merchandise that we don’t?”
Minako took a step backward and a sweatdrop formed on her head. “W-what? Oh no of course not, don’t be silly! I wouldn’t know anything about the merch, ah ha ha ha,” the blonde waved her hand to try and dismiss their concerns.
“Good to know, ’cause it’s not like I could use the extra cash to pay my rent or anything,” Makoto eclipsed a nearby lamp, casting a shadow over Minako.
“Or pay for some renovations that my shrine could really use,” Rei gave a burning judgmental gaze as she stepped closer, blocking the sun from the window.
“Or be able to pay for a car,” Usagi popped up between them, eyebrows narrowed, mimicking the glare of the others.
“Ahhh heh heh heh,” Minako shivered as the trio closed in as her frantic hands gave a defensive wave. “No no no! It wasn’t me! I had nothing to do with all that! It was um…” Her eyes shifted around. Her hand bolted and pointed to the white cat with a crescent moon spot on his forehead. “It was Artemis! It was all his idea!”
The cat’s eyes bulged. “Whoa whoa whoa! Don’t you drag me into this!” He looked at Usagi and the others. “I only helped her trademark the Sailor V merch! All the other stuff was her, she acted alone!”
“Reaaaaallly,” Usagi said, as the three turned to Minako’s direction.
“ARTEMIS!” Minako shrieked as her face reddened with fury. The swimsuit-clad blonde lunged for the couch, prompting the talking cat to jump and flee. “YOU’LL NEVER GET CANNED FOOD AGAIN, YOU TRAITOR!” The blonde bared her fangs and flailed her arms as she stumbled over the furniture.
“Wahhh!” he bolted, fleeing to another room and diving under the bed.
“I’ve heard enough. Mako, grab her!” Usagi declared.
“Come back here you little… huh?” Minako turned and looked in horror as Makoto put her hands on Minako’s shoulders. “Ahhh…. W-what are you doing?”
Usagi and Rei traded insidious smirks.
“Are you thinking what I’m thinking?” Rei said.
“I think we should!” Usagi nodded.
“W-what are you girls talking about,” Minako gulped. She felt Makoto’s hands grip her swimsuit. “N-no… you wouldn’t…”
The shoulder straps of Minako’s swimsuit slid over her shoulders.
“H-hey wait! We can talk about this!” Minako gasped, as Usagi and Rei reached for her suit while Makoto held her in place. “I didn’t spend it all! Usagi, the Sailor Moon video game tops the charts!” The top of the swimsuit slid below her chest, and her more pronounced assets made an appearance. “Rei, the Mars Hot sauce is really popular!” They tugged the outfit past her midriff and wrestled it below her hips. “Mako! That Jupiter perfume line with your face on it? It’s a big seller, you lucky girl!” Rei pulled the swimsuit off over her ankles.
“…I just have one question,” Usagi emerged from the shadows with her hands behind her back. “Who sells the most toys?” She tilted her head, completely serious as she leaned in Minako’s face. “And don’t lie to me!” the shorter blonde added, poking a finger between Minako’s breasts.
The nude blonde sighed. “… Um… I haven’t checked this week… Ami’s usually number one in plush dolls…”
Usagi nodded and smiled at the other two. “Rei, you and me get this side, Mako, you get the other.”
Panic returned to her eyes. “H-hold on! I… I still have all the paperwork! We’ll have Ami do all the math and make sure everyone gets their fair cut ha ha ha!”
“Let’s get her outside.”
“I’ll err… you know what, Ami’s swimsuit is entirely on me!” She squirmed as the other girls grabbed her. Minako’s face fell, as Rei grabbed her ankle, and Usagi took her wrist. “And lunch! I’ll get us all lunch!” Makoto took one of each herself and lifted the blonde off the ground. “Th-the trip! W-what if I pay for this whole trip!?”
They carried her toward the front door of the beach. Usagi pushed it open with her foot. “All together now!”
“Girls, wait, no!” Minako tried to scramble. “What if I throw in my part of the profits too!?”
The group began swinging her back and forth. “One… two… three!” On the third count, they swung and flung the naked blonde out the door.
“Waaaa-oof!” Minako stumbled as she landed in the sand. She turned her head back in horror as Usagi held the door.
“You stay out there for a while and THEN we’ll talk about what you owe!” Usagi shouted, before slamming the door.
“No! No no no no no!” Minako scrambled to her feet and ran for the door. She gripped the doorknob and wrestled it. But just like Ami before her, it would only clack in resistance. “Grrr… damn you, Artemis….! I can’t believe that cat ratted me out!” She turned and faced the beach. “Now what do I do…”
Ahead of the naked blonde was the beach. Rolling hills of sand and waving water along the horizon. It looked as if there were a dozen or so umbrellas around now. The population of the beach was beginning to grow.
She kept her arms wrapped over her intimates, utterly clothless and clueless. She was locked out naked. There was also no sign of Ami, probably the only one of her friends who wouldn’t get *too* upset over her trademark handling. Not that Ami was in a better position, wherever she was.
Minako took a breath. ‘Okay Minako,’ she thought. ‘You saved the world, you survived having your soul ripped out, you even got through that awful math class. This is nothing.’ Still, she felt so vulnerable and exposed. The warm sunlight beat down on her body as she took a few steps out into the sand. It warmed her naked backside, while still managing to send a shiver through her. Her heart raced and thumped hard in her ears.
She took a glance at a few umbrellas. There was a group of guys lining up a set of poles for a volleyball net. Another, older man was walking along the sands with a metal detector. A couple of girls were having an idle chat while helping each other with sun tan lotion.
The girls might be a little more sympathetic, but there was something to be said for having one of those hunks come to her aid. At any rate, she was going to have to brave a little exposure. She approached the girls first, feeling her heart pound harder and harder.
“Um… excuse me,” Minako started, keeping her hands firmly in place. “I um… a few bad things happened… could I borrow a towel?”
The two girls turned and looked at Minako. Their eyes popped in utter surprise, and they both began to giggle. A dash of red appeared on the blonde’s face.
“Wow, what happened?”
“Are you totally naked?”
“Ah heh heh,” Minako attempted to brush it off. And yet her knees wobbled. “Well um… you see I was out for a swim and there was this big wave.” Her toes curled in the sand as she glanced around the beach. There were a number of confused glances and lowered pairs of sunglasses. Eyes from every direction gravitated toward her bare form. “So… you know, help a girl out?”
There were more giggles shared between the two. “Okay, wanna know how we know you’re lying?”
Minako blinked, her fake smile sliding down her face. “W-what do you mean?”
“First off,” the other girl started. ‘You came from that way, not the ocean.” She pointed toward the beach.
“Second, your hair is totally dry!” Her friend pointed out. “And there’s no way you could get that much hair to dry that fast!”
“Nhhh!” Minako gripped herself tighter. “Okay okay! I didn’t want to admit it… my friends pranked me, okay? Could you please help me out? I kind of don’t want this many people seeing me!”
“Pff, you lied about losing it in the water, you’re probably lying about that too.”
“You probably *wanted* to run around naked like some kind of pervert.”
The blonde’s eyes widened. She gritted her teeth and balled her hands into fists, and they moved to her hips as she stomped her foot in the sand. “Hey, who are you calling a pervert!? You think I LIKE running around like this?” Her breasts gave a gentle bounce, and her smooth thighs seemed to almost glow in the sunlight. More heads gravitated toward the commotion.
“Well, you sure didn’t lose your suit in the ocean!”
“And if your friends pranked you, they’d be sneaking around to watch this happen!”
“You’re probably having fun walking around showing off your flat ass.”
The world froze. Minako’s pupils turned tiny. “F-flat?” She twisted and looked over herself. It was far from flat, it was round and perky. Bubbly even. It bore a subtle sway with every step she took. The blonde gritted her teeth and felt her fury begin to whistle like a boiling teapot as she glared at those two girls. “…I’LL SHOW YOU FLAT!” She pulled a foot back and kicked sand at them. A little cloud of dust appeared as Minako let her rage take over.
“Ah! Knock it off you pervert!”
“Stop it!”
The two girls put their hands and arms in front of them to shield them from all the sand kicks. They tried to keep their faces away as best they could. As Minako’s commotion continued, more and more of the beachgoers were looking in her direction, seeing the blonde in all of her naked glory.
“Everyone’s seeing you!”
Minako paused for only a moment and looked at her surroundings. Around a dozen visitors all stopped at whatever they were doing, be it swimming, tanning, or treasure hunting, to see this crazy naked blonde girl kicking sand. Her pulse picked up as red began to climb her face.
“Ahhh! Quit looking at me! My beauty is not for your eyes!” Minako wrapped her arms around herself and fled, her bare bottom bouncing with each stride as she took off. ‘Oh my gosh, they’re all seeing me! If someone gets a picture, I’ll never be an idol!’ she thought. There were laughs, whistles, cat calls. Everyone was seeing her nude from head to toe.
Minako scrambled. She had to find something to cover up with. A spare swimsuit? A towel? Even a life jacket would be better than nothing. As she sprinted, her foot hit something, and she went flailing into the sand and tumbled, her bare backside elevated into the view of the beach.
“Owww….”
“Sorry! Gotta watch where you’re going!” said a male voice.
Minako looked up and saw a couple of guys securing a net to the volleyball poles. One other stood there, looking more than a little surprised to see her. However, upon seeing them, Minako’s blush took a shift towards pinker hues. Tall muscular bodies, flowing hair, rugged chins. And these hunks were seeing her in the most vulnerable state she could present herself in.
Forget those girls. Minako’s cheeks heated up as she bit her lip. “…Hi.”
“Who’s the babe?”
“Where’s her swimsuit?”
“You okay?”
“Yes! I mean… yes… I mean, yeah, I mean, sure!” Minako giggled. She blushed and looked at the sand in front of her. “Um, I’m in a liiiittle bit of trouble, I don’t suppose one of you handsome gentlemen could loan a sweet helpless girl like me a towel?”
The three males traded looks and smirks. One of them looked at Minako, lying face down, naked in the sand. He blinked for a second. “Hey wait a second… you’re Minako Aino, right?”
There was a pause, as Minako looked up at him. She poked her brain for memories, but she could only draw a blank on the guy who recognized her. “Um…. maybe…” Minako blushed, trying to keep her smile together.
“You know her?”
“Yeah, she’s awesome at volleyball. The high school volleyball team could have been champions several years ago. *If she stayed*,” he added with a judgmental sneer.
Minako pulled her head back. She faked a laugh. “Oh come on, I had important things to do! I had to um… study! Yes, studying is very important.” There was also saving the world from an evil galaxy-shattering Goddess, but she couldn’t exactly talk about that.
“Yeah right, you were in the make-up exam room every day!”
“…Hence I couldn’t stay on the team!” She put on a sheepish grin as a sweatdrop rolled down her head. “Now um, could I please borrow a towel?”
The male holding the ball stared at Minako for a moment. Seemed not having her on the team still hurt. Then he smirked. “Tell ya what,” he held a volleyball. He tossed it in the air and caught it. “Beat us in a three v one, and we’ll give you a towel. Lose, and you’re just stuck naked.”
The blonde blinked. “What? You’re kidding! I can’t play like this!” Minako gestured toward herself, trying to splay one hand to cover her bubbly bottom.
“Then I guess you’re skipping ahead to the ‘stuck naked’ part, aren’t you?”
“Guess she’s no good at volleyball anymore…”
“Doooooo…” Minako balled her hands into fists. ‘I’ll show them…’ She gritted her teeth and pushed through her blush. “You’re on! And when I win, you’re going to give me a towel!” The nude blonde lifted herself to her feet, hands swept the sand off her stomach and thighs.
“Nice,” said one, as two of the guys gave each other a high-five.
With the volleyball net secured, Minako took one side and the three guys took the other. But it didn’t take long for an audience to start forming, with at least a dozen beach visitors approaching. And all eyes were on the very naked Minako.
She kept her hands over her intimates, still feeling her cheeks hot with blush. It was everything the blonde could do to make sure her anger was strong enough to protect what remained of her pride.
“Alright, first to three points, you serve first, Aino!” said one of the boys, throwing the ball over the net.
“Right,” Minako caught the ball, her hands abandoning their covering positions to catch it. A chorus of whistles and giggles came from the crowd. “Ahh!” the blonde blushed as she realized just how many people were watching her. Seeing her. Naked from head to toe. She gulped. ‘Okay, we’re far from home, I don’t know most of the people here, they don’t know me. Just beat them and get that towel.’
Minako took a deep breath, tossed the ball up, and slapped it with her hand, sending it sailing over the net. She wrapped her arms around her breasts and kept her thighs close to cover what she could. Eyes were crawling all over her. This was *humiliating*.
The three guys bumped the ball between each other, putting it up in the air and setting up a spike. The ball bolted back to Minako’s court.
She jumped, kicking up sand to get in front of its path before it hit the ground. “Oh no!” Minako gasped.
“1 – 0!” One of them called out.
Minako ran to get the ball and bent over. The giggles came in even louder as Minako’s uncovered backside hung in the air, the vibrant sun lit it up. “Stupid perverts,” Minako spat as she picked up the ball. She turned to serve. Again, she tried to cover her nakedness as the ball moved to the other side.
It took little effort for them to return the ball, darting toward Minako’s side of the field. Minako was barely able to get her hands in position to bump the ball back over. She tried to cover herself again when the ball spiked back to her side.
“2 – 0! You’re about to lose!”
“Maybe she wouldn’t have made a difference back then after all.”
Minako grit her teeth. She was about to lose already!? ‘No good,’ she thought. ‘I can’t cover and play at the same time.’ She approached the ball when she paused. An idea popped into her head. It was crazy. Her friends would outright call it insane. But she was desperate.
“Alright, no more messing around! Get ready for some of the best volleyball you’ve ever seen!” Minako declared, with a hand pointing to the sky. “I’m ready for you now. I’ll just smirk and streak it!”
“…Don’t you mean ‘grin and bare it’?”
“Well, there’s more than one way to say that I guess…” Minako let a finger waggle in the air. “Now get ready!” Minako turned to pick up the ball. Her face felt *hot*. She took her time, extending a hand toward the volleyball propped up her hips. A gentle sway out in the open air caused a few more giggles. She retrieved the ball and turned. The three guys on the other team were stunned and had a few shades of pink on their cheeks.
‘Bingo,’ she thought. She served the ball and sent it sailing over the net with a crisp slap, allowing her breasts to bounce without restraint.
The guys were staring. One shook his head and saw the ball. “Ah, whoa!” He dove, kicking up sand in his wake as he tried to keep the volley alive. But his return didn’t clear the net and thumped into the ground.
“2 – 1!” Minako called out, waving her hand, and allowing the sunlight to dance all over her naked form. There were eyes crawling all over every inch of skin she was showing off. There were more giggles and a few cheers. She was certain they were more for her body than her performance. ‘Just keep going. I can do this. It’s why they’re going to lose.’
She took a position in the middle of her court, as they took their turn to serve. She couldn’t cover. That would cut into her agility. The ball came over the net. If it touched the sand on her side…
Minako sprung into the air and slapped the ball hard to return it. The three guys started bouncing the ball between themselves, before sending it high in the air toward the far corner. She pumped hard and dove into the sand to send it flying back.
The boys were barely able to return it, as it hopped over the net at a lazy pace.
She bottled, tearing through the sand. “Huraaaaaaaaagh!!” She jumped, her naked body flying into the air as she brought an open palm to swat the ball into the sand. The sand poofed around where it made its impact.
She exhaled. “2 – 2!” She called out. Just one more point. One more and she would have that towel. “Take one last good look!” the blonde said, putting her hands on her breasts and giving them a squeeze, propping them up and presenting them. The crowd seemed to cheer and give her more whistles. There was still a dusting of red on her cheeks. But if it worked, it worked.
“Wow, she really IS a pervert!”
“Look at the way she’s showing herself off.”
Minako turned and saw the two girls she encountered earlier. The same ones she kicked sand at. Both of them had some evil smirks, drinking in the blonde’s humiliating display.
“I knew it. Called it from so far away. She’s doing this for fun.”
“Yep, this is a grade A pervert.”
The naked blonde grit her teeth. She turned. “Hey, I am not doing this for fun! Just because I’m using my body in a suggestive way to take advantage of those guys doesn’t mean I’m a pervert!”
“…That’s EXACTLY what it means!”
“Pervert!”
“Why you…” Minako balled her hand into a fist. “As soon as I’m done with this game, I’m going to-”
Boing!
She straightened her stance, feeling something bounce off her rear end. Color drained from her face as she turned and saw the volleyball roll away from her.
“Direct hit!” Laughter erupted around the court.
“3 – 2!”
“W-what!?” Minako turned. “N-no way! That wasn’t fair, I wasn’t ready!” She flailed her arms. “You guys cheated! You know you cheated!”
“Naked babe’s gotta stay naked!” Said the leading guy. “But you’re still welcome to hang out with us, Aino.”
“Such a shame,” said the girl. “Maybe if your ass wasn’t so flat, the ball would have bounced back over the net!” She started giggling.
Minako glared at her. “WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY!?”
“Everyone’s coming to take a look!” the girl said with her arms crossed and a dirty little smirk. And true to her word, almost two dozen people were at the beach now, and most of them were here spectating Minako’s game. Or rather, looking over her nakedness.
The blonde put her hands over herself as she realized just how many people were looking at her. Seeing her naked body under the brilliant rays of the sun. “Ahhh…. This isn’t over!” Minako spat, as she turned and fled the volleyball court. There were giggles, whistles, and even a few cheers as the nude blonde fled.
There was a spot by the water, with a little curve of rocks. Fewer people were near it. It would do. She kept running until she found herself behind the rock, her heart raced, and her chest heaved from heavy breathing. But at least she was out of direct view for now.
“I can’t believe so many people just saw me… what am I going to do?” she gasped.
“Minako?” came a familiar voice.
The blonde turned and saw a certain, blue-haired, towel-clad girl sitting on one of the rocks in a private little spot.
