Chapter 1: A Shadowed Moon shines in the Night

Location-Juuban High School - 8:45 AM

Usagi Tsukino sighed, slumping against the wall outside her classroom. "Late again!" she moaned. Her hand brushed momentarily against her transformation brooch as she looked up and down the empty hall with a sigh, hanging her head. A slam startled her as the doors at the end of the hall swung open as someone she'd never seen before strode in. She was immediately struck by the fact he seemed familiar to her, though she knew she'd never seen him before.

Who is he? He feels familiar, as if he were one of us, yet… somehow he's different, almost dangerous, she thought.

Moments later the door opened as her teacher stuck her head out. "Get in here, and you have an hour of detention… who are you?" she said irritably as the guy with startling cobalt blue eyes edged with deep gray stopped, tilting his head at them. "This is my class," he said simply, his hair dark blonde with lighter golden blond streaks hanging down a few inches past his shoulder blades in a loose ponytail at the nape of his neck. The teacher sighed. "You must be Saito," she muttered. The guy smiled slightly as Usagi went into the room, slumping into her chair near Naru. The teacher came in, followed by the new guy, Saito.

"This is a new student recently transferred from Ireland, Saito Tsukino," she said with a smile. "Technically I'm from Coalbrook, a few miles from Dublin, but who cares about specifics?" Saito said dryly, a faint Irish lilt in his voice. Saito's gaze flickered through the class as he took a couple of steps forward, settling on a desk two in front of Usagi and to the left, just in front of Naru.

Naru sighed as she watched Saito walk toward them; she thought he must be a dancer or martial artist from the controlled way he moved, almost with a primal fluidity. She glanced at Usagi, who hadn't taken her eyes off Saito. She had noticed Saito's last name had been the same as Usagi's.

He must be related to me somehow, Usagi thought as she leaned back in the seat. "Your mother's sister is my mother," Saito said quietly, sliding into the seat. She blinked, startled. "Are you some kind of mind reader?" she said coolly. Saito chuckled as he shook his head slightly. "Recognized you from a picture, that's all," he said quietly as he glanced back at her.

She was slightly surprised when he tapped his foot lightly as if hearing music. She noticed black earbuds in his ears then, disappearing into his jacket, which he wore over his uniform. "Do you like wearing a uniform or is the jacket some kind of rebellion?" she asked, blurting it out. Saito shrugged. "It's okay; I don't mind uniforms, since I've worn a few different ones," he said, purposely not elaborating. She noticed the ring on his left middle finger was dark midnight blue streaked with a lighter blue, almost sky blue. "Mood ring?" she mumbled. "Something like that," Saito said softly, making her blush when she realized he'd heard her.

After class ended, she walked down the hall, managing to push through to get to her locker. "Hey, Blondie, you think you're hot stuff?" a tall football player with shoulder length black hair and narrow eyes spat at Saito, who barely glanced his way. She noticed Makoto walking toward her when the jock swung his backpack at Saito's back, only to miss when he sped up his pace momentarily. "Your aim's off with your gear… work on that on the field," he said dryly, making Naru next to Usagi giggle. His sense of humor's dry, but he's definitely friendly to everyone around him, even when he's annoyed with some of them, she thought. Usagi pulled out her pink bento box as Naru did the same with her dark red one. She noticed Saito didn't even seem interested in dealing with the jock as he headed outside with Makoto following him and herself and Naru ahead of him.

Saito shifted, his mind focused on sensing everything around him as he leaned against a tree. He barely glanced upward when he heard the cat meow. "Took you long enough," he muttered. The cat was dark bronze in color with a crescent moon in pale bluish gray on his forehead and was named Kurai. Kurai dropped onto his shoulder as he glanced at Usagi and the other two girls with her. "You're sure she's the one, my cousin?" he said in a low voice. "Certain; Luna confirmed it," Apollo said in the same low tone. He heard odd screeching moments before a metallic crash followed. He rolled his eyes as he nodded slightly to Apollo, who jumped down and screeched to distract anyone nearby as he slipped into the shadows, shed his jacket and shifted his weight, his ring expanding and flowing like a liquid over his skin to reveal it was more than it appeared; it was a symbiont, an alien that had attached itself to him when he was fourteen, four years before. Tribal markings rippled over the shoulders of the suit as light cobalt blue streamed in ragged spirals around his forearms, gray rectangles forming on the back of his gloves as the midnight blue mask formed, the visage more of a black shadow with no visible eyeslits as the same midnight blue swirled down his legs to form into dark blue boots as a circle with a dozen jagged streaks swirling around four inner spikes formed on his chest an instant before he faded into invisibility.

He climbed up the wall quickly and fluidly before running rapidly and leaping out over the street, becoming visible again as he did the moment he fired a webline that allowed him to swing in and land near the crumpled car. A young woman with pale pink hair sat pinned in the car, looking dazed. He yanked hard on the door, ripping it free as he heard a few gasps and cheers. He sensed it was several students, including the brown haired girl that had followed him outside, Naru, and Usagi. He tore out the steering wheel, knowing the car was totaled as he carefully pulled the girl from the car. He shot another webline that let him swing away from the car and land a few yards short of the barrier near the school as his teacher ran out to check the injured girl out. He glanced at the car and shot a web 'ball' that struck the fuel tank, stopping the leak that could have caused a potential explosion. "Who are you?" the girl gasped, moaning. "Shinsei," he replied, using the Japanese term for 'nova' as he shot another webline and swung away, blurring until he had seemingly vanished into thin air.

"Who do you think that was?" Naru said excitedly. She looked at Makoto, who shrugged. "Whoever it was managed to get to that before the Senshi showed up; maybe he's some kind of rival arrived to push them out," she muttered. Usagi snorted softly, rolling her eyes as Saito strode up. "What's all the yelling about?" he said dryly, seeming both amused and bored. "Car lost control out there, and some guy showed up and got her out before shooting some kind of ball at the gas tank before he fled," Usagi said with a sigh.

"Looks like he's stronger than normal," Saito said, crouching a few yards away. He blinked momentarily as the brown haired girl knelt next to him. "I'm Kino Makoto," she said. "He practically yanked the door right off its hinges," she said softly, touching the door.

Time skip- a few minutes later...

Saito shrugged slightly as he satunder a tree, Makoto a few feet away while Usagi and Naru were further down. He exhaled softly as he opened his dark blue bento box and grunted as the contents sprang up from a false bottom with a compressed spring hidden inside, splattering his lunch in his leaped away, hissing in surprise when It slowly slid down Saito's irritated face. "Cammy," he muttered, referring to his sister, who was a habitual prankster. Makoto blinked when she looked over at him, noticing his jacket was missing until she noticed it hanging above him on a branch.

What will happen next? Only one way to know, and that's to see how this Dark Moon brightens as time goes on!
