So, she'd come up with a plan. Since the first sight of her had freaked the girl out, she had decided to stay hidden. Sneaking into the house, she got into the appropriate room, and crept under the bed to make sure that she could be there, but not have to worry about being seen. Sure, it'd be hard to have a serious conversation this way, but if she could at least start it, then she would be able to work from there.
Fortunately, patience had its virtues, and after waiting until night was about to start, she saw the girl come into the room, and sit on the bed. Once she knew that they were alone, and the door was closed, she took her chances, and decided to see if she could manage a proper introduction.
"Hello, Usagi," she called out.
"GAH!" came the girl's voice as she leapt from the bed and stood in the middle of the floor. "Who said that?! Where are you?!"
"Right here. Under your bed."
"'Under my...' You aren't some pervert, are you? Or some sort of monster? Are you a pervert monster?"
"NO! I'm a friend."
"Right... One that's hiding under my bed."
The mooncat fought the urge to roll her eyes and merely sighed. "I'm here because every time I try to talk to you, you act... strangely. Almost as if you thought that you were... an animal."
"Hmm... The only time that's happened was when I saw that... You're that... ca... ca..."
"Uh... I'm not really one of them. I only look that way!"
"Huh?" went Usagi as confusion momentarily blunted her fear.
"Do cats talk?"
"Well... no..."
"Still, I'm not coming out when you can see me, okay?"
"I guess that's a small favor..."
"And I've got one to ask of you."
"What's that supposed to mean?"
"My name is Luna," the not-quite feline informed her, "and I've been searching for a special kind of girl, one who can help me in a fight that will determine the fate of the world."
"And you came to me?"
"Exactly. It's my hope that you're the one I've been searching for."
"Hmm... A fight does sound tempting... But what would you need me for?" the blonde asked.
"I think that you could be a 'Sailor Senshi', a warrior for Love and Justice given special powers to fight all sorts of monsters."
"Oh! Sort of like 'Sailor V'!"
"Pardon?"
"I heard of her! She's got all those cool abilities and uses them to fight bad guys! I was kind of thinking of trying something out like that..."
"Well, you can if you become a 'Senshi'."
"How could I do that?" Usagi asked eagerly, the opportunity to gain abilities overriding the fear at being in the same room as something that even looked like a certain mammal.
"All you have to do is close your eyes."
"And do what? Make a wish?"
"No. I'm just going to have to come out to do something, and I figured that you might not want to see me."
"Good idea. VERY good idea."
"Okay, I'm coming out..."
Usagi said nothing, but kept her eyes squeezed shut while Luna :
