Title: Bedtime Stories

Disclaimer: I don't own Sailor Moon, the Scouts, or any other recognizable characters. I have no official permission to use them, but I am making $0.00 for this story, so please don't sue me. The character, Jennifer DeVir/Sailor Midnight is my creation. If anyone wants to use her in a story (yeah, right) please ask me first. Thanks!

Feedback is welcome at: silver_blaze99@yahoo.com or jennybeth@cox.net

Note: I use the English names of the Scouts and their enemies. DIC might not do a great job at dubbing Sailor Moon, but since I don't speak Japanese, the only Sailor Moon episodes I've seen are the ones on Cartoon Network.

Note 2: This takes place in the future. It's in Crystal Tokyo and Serena and Darien are queen and king. This takes place when Reeny (Small Lady) is pretty young, about four or five years old. The Scouts are pretty much ageless, so their ages really don't matter in this fic. I also have Sailor Midnight as part of the Scouts who help protect the royal family.

Here are the couples:

Serena (Serenity) and Darien (duh!)

Amy (Mercury) and Greg

Raye (Mars) and Chad

Lita (Jupiter) and Ken

Mina (Venus) and Andrew

Jennifer (Midnight) and Jedite

Last Note: Most of these stories are based on Disney and/or other animated versions of the tales. I have read some of the originals, but found that they were a little too depressing or graphic. So I used the parts of stories I liked, and filled in the rest.

Summary: The Scouts tell their versions of famous fairy tales.

Prologue: Putting the brat to bed

Night had fallen on the grand city of Crystal Tokyo. The Moon, a symbol of hope and strength, illuminated the sky and bathed the entire city with its silver rays. Everyone was settling down and getting ready to fall into a peaceful slumber. The same could be said for everyone in the grand crystal palace in the center of the prosperous city. Well, almost everyone.

"But I don't wanna go ta bed. I'm not sleepy," pouted the pink-haired girl. She was a mirror image of her mother: everything from her unique hairstyle to the crescent shape mark on her forehead to her frowning expression. She was dress in pink pajamas with matching bunny slippers and was holding a pink blanket. She was standing on the middle of her bed, hands on hips and looking at her caretakers defiantly.

The group surrounding her sighed. She was always difficult to put to bed, but tonight seemed to be the worst. The guardian of Mercury tried to reason with the little imp once again,

"Small Lady, you have to go to bed. If you don't get enough sleep you'll be cranky all day tomorrow."

"Yeah, tomorrow you have a big day, munchkin. You need plenty of sleep," stated the Beauty from Venus.

"No." The group groaned as the dreaded word escaped her lips. The girl was just as, or even more, stubborn than her parents. The brunette from Jupiter picked up the girl's discarded stuffed rabbit and handed it to the obstinate child.

"Reeny, you have to go to bed now. Please. For us?" she pleaded, but only getting a firm headshake from the girl.

"No."

"Now, look! Go to bed now or…" started the short-tempered red planet guardian. The final girl in the room elbowed her before she finished. This girl was from no single planet and that sometimes gave her an unusual opinion on things.

"Mars!" scolded the fiery redhead. Turning to the still standing youth, she talked soothingly, "Reeny, we'll make you a deal. Each of us will tell you a story," At the mention of stories the girl perked up, "but we will only do this if you promise to try and go to sleep. If you continue to stay up, we will stop telling the stories. Do we have a deal?" The pink-haired, pig-tailed girl looked at the guardian's outstretched hand suspiciously. She openly examined the young women's face for any catch. Finally, she made her decision.

"Okay," she said as she shook the offered hand. The rest of the group breathed a sigh of relief as the girl allowed herself to be tucked in. They then panicked. Who is going to go first? The young child looked expectantly as the Scouts settled around her bed: two on either side of her head, two at the end of her bed, and the remaining Senshi sitting in an armchair near the bed.

"These had better be good," threaten the girl. Sailor Venus suddenly thought of favorite tale of hers and volunteered to go first.

"Once upon a time…"
