By C. D. Hackett
In the living room of Rupert Giles, a group of young adults were all studying anxiously. To some, this behaviour would seem abnormal. But the unbelievable becomes frighteningly real when living on the Hellmouth.
"Would you all just go and bloody well do something? Go, run along and save your little world and all the little Happy Meals that inhabit it and leave poor ole Spike here. Harmless as a kitten." The vampire went into one of his daily litanies of self-pity and disgust.
"Spike," Willow carefully approached him and held out a mug of warmed pigs' blood for him to drink, "Don't be so hard on yourself. You'll get all 'grr' again, honest, and I'll even let you chase me."
"Red," he growled, "Don't patronize me. When I'm back to me old self, you'll be the first one I turn. That's a promise."
He locked his eyes to hers, displaying confidence and seduction.
She flushed to the roots of her hair, "Oh."
"Willow, stay away from him. He's not necessarily 'safe'. Come here and help me with the big words in this text," cajoled Xander Harris.
Willow Rosenburg looked at him with a smile as she set the mug within Spike's reach and then moved to sit beside Xander.
"Oh course I'm not safe, I'm a fucking vampire! And when I'm back to being myself again, I'll have your guts for garters."
"You wear garters?" Anya asked disbelievingly, "I know vampires are inherently bisexual, but I didn't think you'd be the cross-dressing type. I can't imagine you being someone else's bitch, if you know what I mean."
Spike was mute with fury. His face turning a miraculous shade of purple as he fought the urge to throttle her. The damned chit wouldn't shut up.
"Of course, Angel was pretty hard-core and I can't see him being your bitch so it only makes sense that--" Anya was cut off by two furious people.
"Anya!" Buffy Summers, the legendary Vampire Slayer, glared, "Enough."
Simultaneously, Spike lunged at her before falling to the floor, cursing as the implant zapped him. He juddered as he lay there for a moment or two before weakly asking Willow to pass him his cup of blood.
"Damn."

"Usagi," Luna admonished the future Neo-Queen of Crystal Tokyo, "Pay attention. I will not repeat myself."
Guiltily Tsukino Usagi put down her tray of snacks, "I am listening, Luna. I am just very hungry."
Minuzo Ami smiled, remembering how only a few short months ago any criticism, real or imagined, would have had her best friend in tears. (*)She's really growing up now. I'm so proud of her.(*)
"Well save some for the rest of us," Hino Rei snatched at the tray angrily, "Mako-chan didn't slave over all this just so you could stuff your face and not share with the rest of us!"
A tell-tale sweatdrop appeared and Kino Makoto put a hand to her forehead, laughing uncomfortably, "I really didn't slave, Rei-chan. Besides, I brought another basket full of goodies for the rest of you."
The inner senshi ooh'd and ahh'd as she presented the surprise. But Usagi was hurt and she envisioned herself alone in a spotlight as the rain poured down upon her.
She sniffed as tears welled up in her big, blue eyes, (*)Mako-chan does not love me enough to make me enough treats and now, I shall starve while that greedy Rei eats all those delicious goodies.(*)
Defiantly, Usagi continued to eat the last few cupcakes on her tray, slowly licking the icing off of her pale fingers instead of scarfing it down like the world was about to end, which it apparently was.
"What?" Aino Minako looked up from her manga, "I don't know what a Hellmouth is. Artemis," she addressed the small white cat, "What is a Hellmouth?"
Before he could explain, Rei and Usagi got into it again because Rei said that Usagi was a Hellmouth because of the way she "stuffs her face every five seconds."
The girls were head-to-head, eyes blazing fire and tongues out. They were fighting like two wet cats.
Before Luna had a chance to say anything, Ami-chan spoke up, "Listen, we all have to work together to save the world and this isn't helping. We're a team, remember?"
The rest of the group did a triple-take. (*)Since when does Ami-chan speak out like that?(*) wondered Makoto, (*)She must sense something more to this than the rest of us.(*)
Aptly chastised, Usagi bowed her head to Ami, "Forgive my outburst, Ami-chan."
Flushing, Ami nodded and then asked Luna to continue.
"This Hellmouth will open and with it shall come gomen unlike any we have encountered before. If this comes to pass--"
"The future as you know it, will cease to exist," a figure stepped into the room, finishing Luna's sentence.
"Salior Pluto!" The senshi chorused, "Can't you stop it?"
The soldier of time shook her head, "There are many outcomes and not even I can ascertain if it will be the one we hope for. There is little time. The outer senshi and I will join you there shortly. Go. Now."
The girls exchanged glances.
"Mars Star Power, Make up!"
"Venus Star Power, Make up!"
"Jupiter Star Power, Make up!"
"Mercury Star Power, Make up!"
"Moon Crisis Power, Make up!"
The girls transformed into the beautiful Sailor Soldiers, ready to give their lives to save their world.
Luna and Artemis exchanged worried glances, "What about Chibi Usa?"
Pluto smiled, her shy beauty peeking out for one shining moment, "Leave her to Tuxedo Kamen. No one will be alone."
The five inner senshi gathered close and their auras glowed as they summoned their powers to work in harmony.
"SAILOR TELEPORT!"

Giles facetiously cleaned his spectacles as he thought about the latest prophecy. (*)This is ridiculous. I know all the ancient texts are sometimes confusing, but this is beyond that.(*)
The demon's mouth opens and swallows the Moon
Blood is not enough, Love is not enough
Two worlds collide, two paths entwined
joined together for all of time
Mystical beings unite, together they fight
the secret they share helps them live through the night
Who will live and who will die
The Moon consumed, the Sun shall cry
no sense of balance
everything dies
"Well, the big thing to figure out is how we stop the world from being eaten," Buffy's brow furrowed as she thought.
"An eclipse?" asked Riley Finn, "Could that be how the moon is eaten?"
"Seems kinda, y'know, obvious, don't you think? Besides," Xander complained glumly, "How the hell do we stop an eclipse?"
Willow, Tara and Anya suddenly leapt to their feet and ran to the door without uttering a word.
"What the hell is going on here?"
******
The energy began to fade and the inner senshi looked around, their bright fukus standing out in the darkness of the town. People grabbed each other and fled, knowing that even attractive women in short skirts could spell death when you resided in Sunnydale, California.
Sailor Mercury took out her mini-computer and began running calculations.
"There is strong energy coming from that direction," she pointed.
"Yes, the energy feels strange but it's not evil," Mars sheepishly looked to Sailor Moon, "You're the leader here, so lead all ready."
Moon nodded firmly, "Right."
The girls ran at top speed towards the energy source.
******
"Something odd is happening. I know we can all feel it," Willow addressed her companions as they ran, not even caring if the others followed. Their purpose seemed so clear to them at that moment.
The sky rippled and a handsome man floated down to them, smiling warmly.
"Just what I needed," he laughed, "a bedtime snack."
The girls joined hands and power flowed from them into a protective circle.
"I don't know what kind of vampire you are," Willow shouted, "but we'll dust you anyways, you floating freak of nature!"
"Yeah," added Tara enthusiastically, "What she said."
"Just get on with it," Anya looked at her nails critically, knowing she was in desperate need of a manicure, "I want to have sex with Xander later."
The other two looked at Anya in disbelief.
Sweatdrops.
"Get them!" The man followed that by a word that sounded Japanese and a strange creature appeared.
It was a young girl who was dressed like a Playboy bunny, but her rabbit ears appeared to be real.
"I'm outtie!" Anya yelled and broke the circle, fleeing from her greatest fear.
"The circle!"
As soon as the circle dissapated, Anya found herself pinned to a tree by some razor sharp blades that resembled carrots.
"Give me your energy."
A white light enveloped Anya and she shrieked in pain.
To Be Continued… (I don't want it to be too long so I guess I have to split it up a bit)
