An Enemy Stirs

By SerenityMoonRose123

DC: I do not own Sailor Moon but Christmas is almost here…

(AN: So welcome to Sailor Moon: Crystal or Sailor Moon C for short, enjoy! Ok so about 5 years have passed since Galaxia so that makes Serena and the Inners about 21 to 22 and Amara and Michelle 23 to 24, Trista about 1,024 since she hasn't died since the Silver Millennium, and Hotaru 13 to 16, and Darien about 24-26. Still not sure if I am going to bring Rini back or not, if you want her to come back, PM me or tell me in a review, it would be greatly appreciated!)

"Darien, where are you taking me?" Serena whined.

Darien just grinned and kept his hands over her eyes. He and Serena had been dating for eight to nine years and in the time since Galaxia, no major threats had emerged and the Scouts thought that the NegaVerse had been destroyed. (AN: Tut, tut, scouts you should know better!) Darien and Serena had done so much over the past six years it was hard to believe. After Galaxia was destroyed, Serena shaped up. When she graduated from high school she was one the top five students in the country and got accepted to KO University, where she majored in music. When she graduated it was one of the proudest moments of Darien's life. After Serena graduated, she moved in with Darien and had been living with him ever since. Darien on the other hand, also had a lot going on. After he graduated from college he started to work at a hospital as one of the people who wrote up reports about the patients. He loved his job and was still doing it. The other scouts also had a lot going on. Amy was going out with Greg, who had moved back to Tokyo about four years ago, Raye was going out with Chad, Mina was going out with Andrew, who had broken up with Rita after he found out she was cheating on him. Mina helped him through it and they started going out. Lita was going out with Ken, a guy she had a crush on before she started going to school with Serena. Amara and Michelle were still single and they were still as close as sisters. Trista was still single, but she had a crush on this guy named Steven she met while she was at a party with some friends. Hotaru was still single and was proud of it. Her father had passed away right after Galaxia was defeated so she lived with the Outers in their giant apartment.

Darien still had his hands over Serena's eyes. They were at the beach for the weekend, and he thought this would be the perfect time to 'pop the question'.

"Almost there." Darien thought as he led Serena towards a picnic blanket and basket, which was filled with all of her favorite foods and eight surprise guests plus two surprise cats.

He lifted his hands and Serena gasped. She whirled around, kissed him on the cheek and ran over to catch up with her friends.

"Oh my gosh!" Serena exclaimed, all excited to see her friends. "I can't believe you guys are here!"

Everyone grinned, even Trista, who almost never smiled.

"Well, we decided to plan a little surprise get together party for you 'cause you have been all stressed out lately trying to find a job and such." Michelle said in her quiet and intelligent voice.

"Yeah, even Meatball Head needs a break sometimes." Raye added.

Serena glared at the raven haired girl.

"Can it Raye!" she hissed.

Everyone just rolled their eyes.

"Can you two go one minute without fighting?" Amara asked, annoyed at their immature behavior.

"It's not possible; those two will fight and will always fight for all eternity." Lita sighed, annoyed by the annual routine.

"How about we change the subject?" Trista said, trying to prevent an argument.

Mina, of course, was the first to change the subject.

"Hey Serena, is it just me or do you look pregnant?" Mina asked, proving once again that she always asked the wrong questions at the wrong times.

"MINA!" Everyone yelled.

"For your information, Mina, I am not pregnant; it is just that I have extra clothes on because I caught a cold yesterday." Serena said rolling her eyes.

"Yup, that DEFINETLY changed the subject."Hotaru said.

"Serena, why must you be so blunt?" Amy asked.

"She's Serena, and that's the way she is." Said a voice from behind Serena.

She turned around and saw Luna and Artemis padding towards her. She rushed over and hugged the living cat out of them.

"Serena-can't-breathe." Artemis gasped.

Blushing, Serena put them down and apologized.

Luna looked very serious and was about to say something when Darien beat her to it.

"Serena, can I ask you something?" Darien asked.

Serena turned around to face him.

"Sure, what's up?" she asked puzzled.

He took a small box from his back pocket and opened it and asked.

"Serena, will you marry me?"

Serena let that sink in and grinned.

"Hmmmm," She said thinking out loud, "Yes or No? Quite a hard decision, if you ask me." Serena said rubbing her chin, "I think I will go with… of course I'll marry you!"

Everyone started cheering, even Trista, and congratulating the future husband and wife when they felt it. It was all too familiar. Trista summoned her Time Staff and held it tightly ready to attack. They heard a cackling coming from in front of them but they didn't see anything. Suddenly, Serena gasped as she was pulled back by some sort of invisible force, towards a portal that had opened. The Scouts all growled and nodded at each other and pulled out their wands.

"MERCURY STAR CRYSTAL POWER, MAKE UP!" Amy yelled. Waves of pure blue water surrounded her and transformed her into Sailor Mercury.

"MARS STAR CRYSTAL POWER, MAKE UP!" Raye yelled. Rings of fire seeped into her skin transforming into Sailor Mars.

"JUPITER STAR CRYSTAL POWER, MAKE UP!" Lita yelled. Atom shaped rings of lightning surrounded her and with a flash, she transformed into Sailor Jupiter.

"VENUS STAR CRYSTAL POWER, MAKE UP!" Mina yelled. Starlight ribbons came out of her wand and made a circle on the ground, then exploding in a flash of starlight, transforming her into Sailor Venus.

"URANUS STAR CRYSTAL POWER, MAKE UP!" Amara yelled. Gusts of wind circled her, transforming her into Sailor Uranus.

"NEPTUNE STAR CRYSTAL POWER, MAKE UP!" Michelle yelled. Turquoise water swirled around her, transforming into the Sailor Scout of Neptune, Sailor Neptune.

"PLUTO STAR CRYSTAL POWER, MAKE UP!" Trista yelled. Time energy whirled around her, turning her into Sailor Pluto.

"SATURN STAR CRYSTAL POWER, MAKE UP!" Hotaru yelled. The Silence Glaive appeared in her hand. She used to trace a circle around her and from that circle came black ribbons that engulfed her then withered away, showing the Sailor Scout of Saturn, Sailor Saturn.

Serena was able to get away from whatever was pulling her and she transformed.

"MOON ETERNAL POWER, MAKE UP!" Serena yelled. Feathers covered her body and when they faded away, revealed a white leotard with pink puff sleeves and small angelic wings on her chest with her brooch in the center. She held up her arms feathers covered these too, becoming white gloves. Then feathers cover her legs, morphing into boots. Then white angelic wings sprouted from her back and then she spun around, her skirt morphing into place and the wings taking on a smaller form. Sailor Moon's transformation was complete when her crescent moon birthmark appeared on her forehead.

Suddenly Tuxedo Mask was next to her and she started her speech.

"How dare you interrupt this happy occasion with my friends and fiancée! I am Sailor Moon, protector of love and justice, and in the name of the moon, I will punish you!" Sailor Moon announced.

"You tell 'em Sailor Moon!" Sailor Venus cheered then turned serious. The enemy had revealed its self and she yelled, "Venus Love Chain Encircle!"

The enemy was caught in a chain of golden hearts and couldn't move. Now it was Sailor Pluto's turn.

"Pluto Deadly Scream!" Pluto yelled.

An orb of purple energy formed at the end of her Time Staff, getting larger. Then, Pluto fired. Unfortunately, it hit, but it didn't destroy the monster, it phased it and freed it from Venus' chains. It tried to make a getaway but everyone fired their attacks at it all at once, some used to trap it, others to physically hit it.

"Mercury Aqua Rhapsody!" Mercury cried.

"Mars Flame Sniper!" Mars yelled.

"Jupiter Oak Evolution!" Jupiter exclaimed.

"Venus Love And Beauty Shock!" Venus yelled.

"Uranus Space Sword Blaster!" Uranus exclaimed.

"Neptune Submarine Reflection!" Neptune cried.

"Saturn Dark Ribbons Clash!" Saturn yelled.

"Pluto Deadly Scream!" Pluto cried.

The monster was on its knees and it was now up to Sailor Moon to defeat the monster, as the Scouts had no more energy left. Raising her Moon Tier high above her head she yelled;

"Starlight Honeymoon Crystal Power Kiss!"

Now the enemy was only dust and Serena fell into the arms of Tuxedo Mask, unconscious.
