Disclaimer: We don't own Sailor Moon. But we do own our OC's, The Guardians. We hope you'll like this mini series of one shots, leading up to the big event {but we're keeping that a secret :)}And later on, we'll be doing some gags based on the Marx Brothers (who's stuff we don't own, either, though we find them hilarious). So enjoy!
Guardians Of The Moon
Chapter One
The Sailor Scouts all met quietly in the night, under the full moon. Luna had sent out an urgent message. She told them all to meet tonight. When they had all arrived in the park, they gathered around the black cat, and listened to her tale.
"Long ago," Luna the cat said to the assembled Sailor Scouts, "On the Moon Kingdom, in the early days of your mother, Queen Serenity's reign, before the Scouts were formed, the Kingdom was guarded by three valiant knights. They had no names other than The Captains, for they were captains of Queen Serenity's royal guard. The first was the Crimson Knight. With his Sword of Light, he guarded the palace. The second, The Silver Lady, with her Silver Starlight Shield, guarded the inner city. The third, the Golden Knight, guarded the outer city. One day, there was a battle with the forces of darkness, and the Earth called for help. The Captains answered, with Queen Serenity's blessing, and went to fight on behalf of the Kng of Elysian, your father, Darien."
"My father?" he asked.
"Your true father," she said. "But the Captains never returned. They fell in battle, against the Dark Knights of the Negaverse. But Elysian was safe, and the dark forces turned their attention to the Moon Kingdom."
"That's so sad," Mina said.
"Yes, sad indeed," Luna said, "But now the Guardians of the Moon Kingdom have returned."
"WHAT?" they all asked.
"Yes," Luna said, as she and Artemis unrolled an American newspaper. The front page read 'GUARDIANS AIDE IN BRINGING DOWN CRIME SYNDICATE"
"You mean those American super heroes on the news are really Sailor Scouts?" Lita asked.
"More or less," Artemis said. "When they died, Queen Serenity founded the Sailor Scouts. And sent the Captains' hearts and spirits to rest in the Moon Palace's cathedral."
"If they've come back," Serena said, "does that mean there's an evil and powerful enemy coming that we need their help to defeat?"
"That we don't know," Luna said. "But they will drawn to you, Serena. As the Heiress to the Moon Kingdom, they will seek you out."
"So keep your eyes peeled. They could be anyone," Artemis said.
"I remember the Captains," Sailor Pluto said, "The Crimson Knight was very handsome."
-----------------
Serena yawned as the girls walked down the street to the new high school.
"High school starts way too early." she complained with another yawn. "We didn't have to get up this early in middle school."
"Yeah, well we didn't have so far to walk in middle school," Rei said.
"But at least we're together," Mina said cheerfully, "That's a plus."
"Look at that!" Rini said, pointing. There, on the hill, was a large mansion, with many moving vans in the driveway.
"Someone actually bought that dump?" Lita asked. "I hope they fixer-uppers." And just then, a blue and silver BMW came roaring down the hill. The girls jumped out of the way as the vehicle sped off.
"Why those jerks!" the girls all cried.
"They didn't even signal for a turn," Amy said, "How reckless!" They continued on, dropping Rini off at her school, and then going on to the high school. As walked through the parking lot, they saw the blue and silver car from the mansion.
"Those maniacs are going to our school?" Serena said.
"Maybe we should get life insurance," Rei remarked.
----------------
That morning, at their regular assembly, the girls were surprised to learn that the two new students were from America. The older of the two was a girl with long curly brown hair, named Kat. The other was a young man named Jim. His hair was light brown eyes were like two crystal pools.
Lita took an immediate interest in him when they were introduced.
"Hi," he said, "My name's Jim."
Lita giggled and her face turned red as she took his hand, "Uh…I'm…I'm…"
"Speechless?" he asked, joking.
"Yes. I mean, No! I'm Lita," she said blushing even more.
"Okay," he said warily. "Can I sit a the desk next to you?"
"You bet!" she said enthusiastically. He sat down, and just as everyone was taking out their books, the new girl stuck her head in the doorway.
"Oh James!" she called, "Jimmy! Over here!" she started waving, and he raised hi notebook up and covered his face. The new girl walked over, and put a lunch box on his desk. "You forgot your lunch, wittle bwoder," she said teasing him.
"Gee, thanks, sis," he said through gritted teeth, "Can you excuse me, I'm talking to Lita here."
"Oh Hi!" Kat said smiling nice pretty, " I'm Kat. I hope little Jimmy's being a good boy?" she said pinching his cheek.
"Uh, yeah he is," Lita said, "Nice meeting you,"
"You too. Later bud," Kat said to Jim.
"Are sure you two are related?" Lita asked.
"Unfortunately." he said sighing.
-------------------
Meanwhile, at the University of Tokyo, Amara and Michelle sat in class with Darien. The class was getting the usual lecture on macroeconomics and how it effects the world we live in day by day when the door opened. A tall young man with a head full of dark brown hair and dark sunglasses walked in, handed some papers to the professor, and then took a seat in the back. He folded up his sunglasses, put them in his pocket, and started taking notes.
"Looks like competition for best student," Amara remarked quietly. She didn't like this guy. Then, he looked right at her, and winked. That added insult to injury in Amara's mind. She turned around and started paying attention to the lecture.
"I think he's kind of cute," Michelle said.
"Please," Amara muttered as she erased a misspelling, "He's just another pompous freshman, who doesn't bout anyone but himself."
"Don't you think that's kinda harsh?" Darien said. "You don't even know him."
"I don't have to know him," Amara said, "I'm a good judge of character."
"Well, madam Judge," he said, "Did you know you're rubbing a hole through your paper?"
Amara looked down and gagged.
"You spent too much time around Serena," Michelle said as she got some paper out for her cousin.
----------------------
"48! 49! 50! 51!" an upper classman shouted as cream puffs disappeared from the table. Serena heard the counting, and came up.
"What's going on?" she asked one guy.
"The new girl's for your record, Serena!"
"WHAAAAAAT!?!" she screeched. "No one can beat a record of 58 cream puffs in under ten minutes!" she shouted, making fists.
"Well she just hit number 53 at eight and a half." he said, looking at his watch.
"55! 56! 57! 58!" the students yelled, "59!! 60!! 61!!! 61 CREAMPUFFS IN 9.2 MINUTES!!!!" They all yelled as Serena's mouth dropped, and she started to cry. Then, Kat got on top of the table, and pointed to the sky as she declared, "And not an ounce gained!!" This made Serena furious, and she cried even harder.
---------------------
"I can't believe she beat my record!" Serena whined as they started the long walk home that evening. They were just coming through the parking lot as Jim got into the blue and silver car.
Lita rushed over, and said beaming, "Hey Jim! Is this your car?"
"Yeah, you like it?" he asked, he cheeks just barely getting red.
"Heck yeah!" she replied, "I know we just met, but would you mind giving us a ride?"
"I'm sorry, but my sister and I have to go meet our brother."
"There's another one of you guys?" Serena asked.
"Hello, Creampuff Queen," Kat said. Serena turned, and her face went red with rage, and steam whistled from her ears.
"YOU!!!!" She screamed as she made a dive at the girl. "You record stealing twit!!!" she would have ripped her head off if the other girls hadn't held her back.
"Calm down Serena!" Mina shouted as she held the left arm.
"That record was all I had!" Serena whined, "I'll never be as smart as Amy or athletic as Lita! Creampuffs was all I had!!!!! WAHHHHHHH!!!!!!" she wailed as the water works started flowing again.
"Geez, if I'd known you would were gonna have a conniption fit I wouldn't have broken that record," Kat said, "I only did it cause it was something to do. Guys around here really appreciate a girl with a god appetite," she said patting her stomach.
"Only if the look like they walked off the runway," muttered Rei, who was half tempted to let Serena loose.
"Let me make it up you," Kat started to say.
"You'll give me a rematch?!" Serena said, eyes twinkling with hope.
"Uh, no," Kat said, a sweat drop coming on her head, "I was think more like inviting you guys to our party this weekend.
"A party!?!" They all said. The girls started jumping and talking all at once about it.
"Okay," Kat said, inching towards the car, "I'll just your names on the guest list. Bye!" She jumped into the passenger seat, and said "Floor it Jim!" she yelled as she punched the gas.
"Ow! My foot!" Jim yelled as the car shot off like a rocket.
"Bye Jim!" Lita called, waving, her face red and eyes sparkling, "See you tomorrow!"
"We've lost her," Mina said, bowing her head.
"To the dark side," Rei confirmed.
------------------------
"What the heck is your problem?" Jim yelled as they ripped down the highway.
"I got weird vibes from those guys," Kat said. "They're just, you know, powerful kind of…just plain weird, you know?"
"Well they seemed nice to me," Jim said, "And we have a mission here. 'Look for the Princess'? Remember that?"
"Well I invited everyone from school to our party," she replied, "One of them's bound to be her. And if not, we'll just move on to the next school, like always."
"Well, let's hope she's here," Jim said. "I kinda like this place," and he had really liked that Lita girl.
-----------------------------
At the college, the new student was reading under a tree. And being observed by Amara and Michelle. Michelle grabbed her cousin's hand, and dragged her with her towards the tree.
"Just say hello to him," Michelle said.
"No!" Amara said jerking her hand away. "He has weird vibes!"
"Oh come on," Michelle said, "He seemed interested in you in class."
"He was also drawing in that weird notebook of his," Amara said. "If you like him so much, you go say hi."
"Fine then, stand here and act stupid like Serena."
"I am nothing like her!"
"You've bee acting more and more like her every day," Michelle said, "Now prove me wrong by saying hi to him!"
But before either of them could react, the Darien leaned in close to them and said, "So what are we talking about?"
"Amara's acting like Serena." Michelle said.
"What, again?" Darien said, mocking her. "Don't tell me, now are you going to start wearing you hair like hers? I admit, you might look kinda nice with a meatball head."
"I do not want a meatball head!" Amara screamed. Then, she turned around, and gasped. "He's doing it again!" she yelled, pointing. "He's looking at us and writing in that weird notebook!"
"Everyone's looking at us," Michelle pointed out. "All because you're acting like a child. I think we've discovered a new social disease," she said.
"Yeah," Darien agreed, "Meatball Head Syndrome."
"She looks fine to me," said a voice. They looked behind Amara, and there was the new guy. "I don't see spaghetti sauce coming out of her ears. In fact, I don't see anything in there."
Amara spun around and said, "Why have you been spying on us!?"
"Spying on you?" he replied, "You guys have been following me around all day. Actually, I find it kinda flattering. I didn't think too many girls would be too interested in me right off. However that does raise a poignant question about you, my friend," he said, pointing to Darien.
"Whoa! Don't worry about me!" Darien said nervously, "I have a girlfriend and a kid!"
"Then that makes you immoral, my friend," the new guy said. "That's awful, getting with a girl and having a kid. You should marry the girl, or at least get rid of the kid. Or better yet, get rid of both and we'll both have these lovely ladies." he said, putting his arms around both Amara and Michelle.
"That does it!" Amara said, getting away from him.
"Oh, come on, I was only kidding," he said. "Let's kiss and make up."
"YOU!" Amara said, ready knock his block off. But then a blue and silver BMW pulled up nearby, and honked a horn.
"Oh wonderful!" the new guy said, "It's my baby brother in shining chrome come to rescue me from the Distressing Damsel. If you don't think I'm too pretentious, or at the least a little bit rude, then please accept this invitation to my estate for a get together this Saturday. I warn you though, it's not for the faint of heart or weak of stomach. Just say that Jeremy Merlot sent you, and he will answer the door. And he is me! Toodles!" he said, leaping into the vehicle. It sped away in a cloud of dust, leaving the college co-eds staring in its wake.
"Well wasn't that nice?" Michelle said, smiling. She looked down at the invite, and looked at the three cartoon caricatures of Jeremy and his two siblings smiling.
--------------------------
"So?" Kat asked Jeremy, "How did it go?"
"It was a smash." he said, lounging in the back seat. "As much as can be expected, I think I've zeroed in on three of them."
"Which ones?" Jim asked.
"One was defiantly the Prince," Jeremy said, seriously and fully composed. "I'd recognize his family line anywhere."
"And the girls?" Kat asked.
"Not sure, but I know their energies." he said. "What bout you? Any luck?"
"Not sure," Jim said. "We'll know better this weekend."
"Jim, you didn't tell him," Kat said.
"Tell him what?"
"About you're new girlfriend!" Kat said, lifting her arms up and giggling.
"What!?" Jim cried, embarrassed.
"Jimmy got a girlfriend before me?" Jeremy asked, "That's not right!"
"I didn't!" Jim said again.
"He did!" Kat contradicted, "He's in love with an Amazon woman!"
"Lita's not an Amazon! She's just really strong! And she's not my girlfriend!"
"Oh please!"
" I find it astonishing that Jim could find a girl before me!" Jeremy said, "It defeats the laws of nature!"
"CUT IT OUT!!!" Jim cried.
-----------------------
That afternoon, the Sailors joined together at their favorite soda shop.
"So there's three of them altogether," Mina said, "Two brothers and the sister."
"You think they could be…?" Serena started to ask.
"No way," Rei said. "But then again…who would have suspected that you were the Moon Princess?"
"Hey!" Serena said offended.
"She has a point," Amy said. "They could be the Guardians."
"I don't believe it," Amara said. "He's too immature."
"Well, if they are, they came just in time." Darien said, holding a news paper. "An electronics store was robbed last night by a bunch of guys in Ninja outfits."
"So? We deal with soul suckers and that stuff," Lita said.
"Yeah, but check this out," he continued, "The security guard said he shot seven rounds into one, it was like he didn't feel it."
"Sounds paranormal to me," Michelle said. "This may be something."
"Well, I still refuse to think that a comedian, a mouse, and a walking garbage disposal could be the legendary Captains of the Moon." Amara said, crumpling the flier.
"Still, I still think we should attend this party of theirs and find out for sure." Amy said, looking at her copy. "It's worth a try."
"As long as I have a chance to get my record back," Serena said. "I will not rest until I have beat 61 cream puffs in 9 minutes!" she declared.
"And then I can go for the record!" Rini declared also. "I've been working on it too long!"
