A/N: This story begins after Sailor Moon Stars and I do not own Sailor Moon, but the Cosmic Sailors are mine. A few notes before I begin the story: first I do not know the attacks that the sailor scouts used in the fifth season so I'll be using the attacks from the fourth season, second I will be using the north american names of the sailors to mean their present day selves and their japanese names for their princess selves.
Sailor Moon C: Cosmic Sailors
Chapter 1
In a tomb in Egypt somewhere:
A grave robber worked by the light of a torch. He noticed an odd jewel lying on top of a sarcophagus. It was shaped like an eye and made of gold only where the iris was supposed to be there was a five point star made of black onyx. The top of the sarcophagus was carved in the figure of a woman with the Eyestar on the middle of her chest. It was one of few things in the tomb that were remotely worth anything. In fact the place looked more like a prison than a tomb. It was a small room with hieroglyphics done on the sides. There were two rather ugly looking statues guarding the door and then just the sarcophagus in the room.
The grave robber walked over and picked up the jewel. He had no sooner done so when he heard the familiar clatter of stones falling on one another and he turned around. The statues were moving and coming to life. One had a lion's head on a woman's body dressed in a white shift dress with sandals while the other was a griffin's head on a man's body wearing a long white loin cloth with sandals and both had wings black as the star on the Eyestar. Much to the grave robber's surprise he heard the sarcophagus opening behind him. The two statues knelt down on one knee as the robber turned and looked to see what was going on behind him. A beautiful woman with long raven black hair and piercing blue eye stepped out of it. When she held her hand up the Eyestar flew out of the robber's hands and into hers.
"I'd like to thank you for setting me free. For your service your heart will be the first we collect." The woman held out the Eyestar with the black star pointed at the robber's heart. It started to glow and began sucking the heart crystal out of the man's body. The heart crystal was then sucked into the Eyestar. "He wasn't exactly a pure heart, but the energy in it may yet prove useful in our mission to bring Pharaoh Ninety to this dimension. Pyranid get rid of this body it's starting to reek of death."
"Yes Queen Kanika." The griffin headed man stood, lifted the body of the grave robber, and carried it off to get rid of it. Queen Kanika held the Eyestar in her left hand while she pressed her right index finger to the star. When she pulled it back a thin copy of the onyx star clung to her finger as she turned her hand palm up. She moved her hand towards her and then back towards the lion headed woman throwing the black star at the figure that was still kneeling before her.
"Sphinx go out and bring me back the heart crystals of pure hearts. The nearest large city is Tokyo, Japan. Go there and bring me back those heart crystals." Sphinx caught the star while Queen Kanika spoke.
"Yes my queen." Sphinx spoke while she opened her wings and disappeared. Queen Kanika closed her sarcophagus and sat down on the lid as if it were her throne and played with the Eyestar waiting for Sphinx to return.
Meanwhile in Tokyo:
Serena, Amy, Mina, Lita, and Raye were eating ice cream in the park while making plans to meet later at Raye's temple for one of their daily study sessions for getting ready for college entrance exams.
"AND IF YOU'RE ONE MINUTE LATE TO STUDY BUDDIES....." An angry Raye was towering over a terrified and crying Serena.
"Raye you're so mean." Serena whined as she ran away with hot tears streaming from her eyes.
"I don't get it." Raye said as she stood there watching Serena running away at warp speed. "She has beaten every enemy we've been up against, but she still whines and carries on whenever I get the least bit angry with her."
"Well of course she whines and carries on when you're upset with her." Amy spoke up.
"Yeah of course she does." Mina agreed, but right after she spoke leaned over to Lita and whispered in her ear. "Why does she whine again?"
"She looks up to you as a sister, Raye, and when you constantly put her down she feels like she isn't good enough for you." Lita ignored Mina and continued on with what Amy had been trying to tell Raye.
"Oh I never thought of it like that. I feel really bad now." Raye was staring in the direction that Serena had run off in hoping that she would be walking back towards them with her usual bright smile on her face.
"You are very important to her Raye. She treasures what you think of her very much. If we would mention to her about being late it wouldn't have nearly the same impact as it would coming from you." Amy continued to explain. The four of them chattered until Raye heard her scout communicator going off. It had been a while since they needed them last, not since they had beaten Galaxia and Chaos. They all still carried their communicators just in case, but primarily out of force of habit.
"Serena what's going on?" Raye asked as she lifted the lid on her wrist communicator.
"Well after I ran off I ran into Molly and she asked me to...." Serena began before she was cut off by Raye.
"Serena hurry up and get to the point!" Raye growled out waiting for Serena to explain why she was calling her on the communicator.
"There's a heart snatcher after Molly in the new charms shop and I could really use some scout power." Serena said into the communicator loud enough for all four of them to hear it.
"Hang on we'll be right there." Lita said just before Raye closed the communicator.
"Heart snatchers huh? I thought we beat them a while ago." Mina asked thinking back trying to remember how long ago it was.
"We did......just before we met Helios and battled the Dark Moon Circus." Amy recalled.
"Amy what part of the brain do you store all this information in?" Lita asked jokingly to try and lighten the mood.
"What are you all standing around for? We've got to go help Serena!" Raye yelled before she ran towards the shop that Serena had mentioned. Once the four of them had ducked into a corner alley where they had some privacy they pulled out their transformation wands. "Mars Crystal Power" "Mercury Crystal Power" "Venus Crystal Power" "Jupiter Crystal Power"
"Ouch that hurt!" Serena whined as she fell to the ground. After Serena ran off she dried her tears just before running into Molly, literally. Serena had run out of the park and down the nearest street about a block. That was where she and Molly became a tangled mess on the pavements in front of the new charms shop that had just opened about a week before.
"Owww. Oh hey Serena." Serena looked at who she ran into and realized it was Molly. She stood up and then helped Molly up as well. "So Serena what are you up to?"
"Not much at the moment. Raye was yelling at me again so I left! I have to meet the others later for study buddies. What about you Mol?"
"Oh I'm looking for something to get for Melvin."
"Is it his birthday or something?"
"No not really, I just wanted to surprise him with something special. He's been kind of distant again, like something's been bothering him. I thought maybe I could cheer him up, but I have no idea what to get."
"Well why don't we start here?" Serena pointed at the charm shop that was right behind them. Serena had been looking for any excuse she could find to go in there and look around. It had only opened a week before and none of the other girls would go with her. Darien couldn't since he was still studying in America.
"Ok." Molly agreed. She was rather curious about the shop herself. When they entered the shop they found a youma. There was a woman in a white Egyptian style dress with a lion's head and a woman's body. She also had a pair of pitch black wings that she used to fly behind her youma. The youma had pale blue skin and dark green hair. She wore a black skimpy dress with armor over the shoulder like the pads a football player would wear. Every inch of bare skin had jewelry chains and charms on it. She moved a large charm on her neck to the side to reveal a black star that was sucking the heart crystals from its victims. "Oh no a monster!" Molly had no sooner finished speaking when the youma threw jewelry chains at her like a whip and captured her. Serena backed away to go call the scouts as the youma began sucking out Molly's heart crystal.
"I need some scout power." Serena whispered to herself as she took out her communicator and called Raye.
"Serena what's going on?" Raye asked as she lifted the lid on her wrist communicator.
"Well after I ran off I ran into Molly and she asked me to...." Serena began before she was cut off by Raye.
"Serena hurry up and get to the point!" Raye growled out waiting for Serena to explain why she was calling her on the communicator.
"There's a heart snatcher after Molly in the new charms shop and I could really use some scout power." Serena spoke loudly because she noticed the faces of Amy, Mina, and Lita gathered behind Raye in her communicator.
"Hang on we'll be right there." Lita said as she pushed Raye aside just before Raye closed the communicator.
"Now to delay that Nega-creep. Moon Eternal Power" Serena quickly transformed. The youma had just sucked Molly's heart Crystal into the black star when she reappeared on the scene. "Stop right there you evil Negatrash. This world isn't big enough for the likes of you."
"Who are you now?" The lion headed woman asked.
"I don't know who you are but I am Eternal Sailor Moon...." As Sailor Moon spoke she was hoping the other scouts showed up soon, but before she could finish the ugly in the white dress cut her off.
"Allow me to introduce myself." The lion headed woman spoke. "I am Sphinx. I was sent by Queen Kanika to find pure hearts to pave the way for the rule of Pharaoh Ninety."
"Oh give it a break Pharaoh Ninety has been destroyed." Sailor Moon remembered fighting the entity and saving Sailor Saturn from facing her death. Sphinx growled in disgust as Eternal Sailor Moon mocked her.
"Charmera get her!" Sphinx snarled. She had only been there a few minutes and already this Sailor Moon was making a fool out of her.
"Yes mistress." The youma snarled as she threw small charms towards Sailor Moon.
"Venus Love Chain Encircle" "Mercury Aqua Rhapsody" Sailor Moon was caught and pulled out of the way of the charms by her friend's whip-like attack while another attack froze the charms in midair. The charms hit the ground with small explosions.
"Hey guys. Glad to see you." Sailor Moon was glad to see her friends there so quickly.
"How dare you use charms for evil. I shall punish you with the fire of Mars. I am Super Sailor Mars."
"You took something beautiful and used it for evil. I must now punish you. I am the sailor scout of beauty, Super Sailor Venus."
"Charms should be used to help people you nega creep. I am Super Sailor Mercury."
"If it's a fight you want then it's a fight you'll get. I am Super Sailor Jupiter."
"I am Eternal Sailor Moon and on behalf of the moon...." Sailor Moon stood up with the rest of the Sailor Scouts and prepared to fight.
"We shall punish you." All five Sailor Scouts spoke as one.
"Mars Flame Sniper" "Jupiter Oak Evolution" The two combined attacks hit Charmera and did absolutely nothing. The Sailor Scouts were standing there with their mouths gaping.
"Charmera get them!" Sphinx was growling with anger. She had enough of this and was ready to go back to Egypt.
"Arghhhhhhh" Charmera threw her chains out again and captured all five of the annoying Sailor Brats sending lightning down the chains. The Sailor Scouts screamed in pain when the lightning hit them. Sailor Moon kept wishing that Tuxedo Mask would show up and save them all, but that wasn't possible. Darien was still in America. They were trapped, that is until a bright yellow ball dissolved the chains and set them free.
"How dare you attack innocent people. I am Super Sailor Uranus." Four shadowy figures appeared somewhere up in a large window near the ceiling of the store and once by one they each jumped down.
"These charms are too good for the likes of you. I am Super Sailor Neptune."
"I shall erase you from time. I am Super Sailor Pluto"
"I shall silence your deed of evil. I am Super Sailor Saturn. Saturn Silence Glaive Surprise" Saturn attacked but it did no good. Charmera looked as if she had barely been scratched by Saturn's attack.
"What?" Yelled Sailor Moon.
"How can that be?" Uranus was in shock.
"No way!" Mars gasped as the rest stood wide eyed in shock. A golden arrow flew down from the ceiling and when the Sailor Scouts looked up all they saw was a shadowy figure disappearing into the darkness. As the arrow hit Charmera she was pierced through her stomach and began having convulsions. She hit the floor bruised and weak.
"Now Sailor Moon." Pluto commanded and Sailor Moon obeyed. She moved into the open where she could properly attack Charmera.
"Silver Moon Crystal Power Kiss" Sailor Moon's attack hit Charmera and she turned back into one of the ladies that worked in the store. A black star rose from her body and broke sending several heart crystals outward to their owners. For the first time the Sailor Scouts noticed there were people in there other than Molly that had been heart snatched. Having been defeated this time, Sphinx took off. "Well scouts I think we've got ourselves a new enemy." The Sailor Scouts left before anyone could say anything. Up on the store roof, unnoticed by the scouts, there were eight figures covered in shaddow.
"Are you sure they didn't see you?" One of the taller figures asked.
"I don't think so." One of the mid-height figures answered.
"Good." The first figure spoke again.
