Title: Moon's Force
Chapter One
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~***
Sailor Moon ran as fast as her scratched legs would carry her. The leader of the sailor scouts had been running for almost ten minutes and had called the scouts fifteen minutes ago. She couldn't think about what was taking them so long to get here, she was to busy being chased by this lone youma. Her running ceased when there was no more places to run. Turning around she saw the thing only ten yards away and gaining.
- Think fast Serenity old girl, how the hell do I get out of this??- The blonde shut her eyes thinking of all her possible solutions and in a second was running to meet the youma now two yards away.
Moon jumped up into a spin kick and knocked the youma to the ground with a thud. After landing on the green thing, she kneeled down, and pinned it's arms behind it's back.
" Who are you working for youma? Tell me or your not gonna have opposable thumbs anymore." She backed her threat up with twisting the thumbs in a painful direction.
" Grrr…no one….ahhh! I swear I speak the truth, you've already killed my master long ago in the great battle of Mistress Nine!" Sailor Moon nodded and got up off the youma's back. With a gloved finger to her chin she began to think of what to kill it off with.
- Why not an old atta- - A scream was ripped from her throat. Her head snapped from the twisted evil grin of the youma to her left arm where a dagger was stabbed into her flesh. Wrenching the weapon out painfully, her good arm went up to grab her tiara.
" Moon Annihilation!" The golden tiara transformed itself into the discus that had helped her in the past and made the youma into moon dust. Her tiara returned to her forehead and she began to walk as a breeze picked up. It gave her a rush when ever she used an attack from her Silver Millennium days.
In an abandoned ally Sailor Moon detransformed into her daily persona. Serena grabbed her arm to hold back the bleeding while she made her way to Rei's temple for the meeting she was a half hour late for. Looking left and right, then up the side of the building for quick measurements on how high it was. With a small leap she scaled the building and started a quicker route to the temple.
***
Serena couldn't believe the hatred that came from her once trusted friends. When she'd arrived at the temple and tried to explain why she was late again, they'd wouldn't listen. True it had only been Rei and Mina who had yelled at her, until Luna got in on the entire thing. Her whole night was this now, pounding the hell out of her pillow to get out her anger. When she'd confronted her beloved Darien on it all, he agreed with them! The next thing Serena knew was that she was leaving the team. Serena had made sure not to denounce her title as Sailor Moon though. No, she would stay on as Sailor Moon and work alone if her other Senshi went against her. The blonde had her reason now, her reason to leave the her pathetic future with the Prince of Earth, and the Earth itself…
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~***
" Rei? Hellllloooo?! Anyone here?" Lita walked into the quiet room where they held their meetings. Everyone was silent. Ami was silently crying and Artemis was trying to comfort her. Everyone else just looked angry, especially Rei.
" What's going on? Ami why are you crying?"
Heads popped up to see the lightning Senshi standing confused. Ami ran into her crying. Lita immediately wrapped her arms around her friend in a warm hug to get her to stop.
" Oh Lita! She's gone! They made her leave!" Ami pointed an accusing hand over to Rei, Mina, Darien, and Luna. Lita glared and Rei stood up looking innocent.
" Lita! Wouldn't you want a real leader for once? How can you defend that weakling?" The innocence had gone and nothing but hatred glowed on Rei's face.
" She's not weak! How many times has she saved your life? Or brought you back?" Lita grabbed Ami's hand and left them all then, Artemis following behind.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~***
Serenity watched with a grin as Lita yelled back at Rei and the others. She'd always known who her true Senshi protectors were. With a soft smile, the Princess left the Mists room where she was able to watch all the happenings of Earth. The soft click of her heels was the only sound her empty Palace. It was drafty since it's resurrection, but only because she was the only one in it.
Her need for over ten hours of sleep had become more normal since her return to her home. The amount of food she ate cut back too, since now the crystal could draw it's energy from the Moon. But it wasn't time for her to think of that, she had plans she needed to take care of…
" Pluto!" The Senshi of Time appeared in front of her princess, bowing immediately.
" I trust you have been watching?" Pluto stood and nodded, following Serenity as she started to walk.
" Why have you returned so soon Serenity? What about Prince Endymion?"
" I'm afraid the relationship between the Moon and Earth has severely changed. Endymion died over a thousand years ago. As did all my Senshi except for you. Since the rebellion of Mars and Venus, I decided to return to my home. Do you blame me Sailor Pluto?" Pluto shook her head, she couldn't argue, and she didn't want to.
" No, Princess, I do not blame you for your actions. Small lady will be missed."
" She will be born Setsuna. Besides, she was always a child of the Earth with the powers of the Moon."
" What is it that you need for me to do?" Serenity smiled.
" Watch over the four who have betrayed me. Report anything strange…especially in the next few hours. Go."
Pluto did nothing but nod and return to her post…
***
Artemis paced back and forth on Lita's living carpet. He couldn't help but worry about the Princess of the Moon. The white cat had always held a certain love for the girl, what type of love he may never know. It didn't matter right now, he knew Serenity was planning something.
" Artemis." A soft angelic voice called his name and so he turned to see Serenity standing their in a medieval gown of white and silver. A cape of soft white and silver lining inside it draped over her shoulders. Her silver blonde hair fell over her shoulders with two braids pulled together in the back of her head. Artemis blushed at the site of her.
" You returned to the Moon, haven't you Princess?" It was more of a statement than a question, but she nodded anyways.
" I need you to full fill my plans dear guardian, but for this you must return to the old ways." He nodded and a soft white light encased him, leaving behind the human version of Artemis in it's leave.
" Come, we must leave before Jupiter wakes." They joined hands and were gone….
