This is just a parody, so don't take it seriously, please.:p

"Prepare to be defeated!" The monster roared out.

The Sailor Senshi were scared. They underestimated their opponent. They were about to be defeated, unless…

A flash of red, and a rose appeared between the Sailor Senshi and the monster.

"Tuxedo Mask!" Sailor Moon practically squealed. "It's about time you… Huh?"

Instead of her tuxedo-wearing erstwhile savior, there stood in front of her a young man with silver hair, strange ears, and… a tail.

"Who the heck are you?"

"I'm here to protect you lovely ladies from the monster," the silver-haired guy said, winking roguishly at them. "Now if you'll excuse me…" Bending down, he picked up the rose and twirled it. Almost instantaneously, the rose transformed into a whip.

"Wow!" Sailor Venus squealed, immediately entranced.

The silver-haired man turned his head and winked at her. "Liked it? I'll show it to you later," he said teasingly, causing her to blush. "After I beat the monster!" He started sprinting towards the monster, only to be stopped in his tracks.

"Just who the heck are you?" The masked, tuxedo-wearing young man asked him, his voice cold.

"Tuxedo Mask!" Sailor Moon squealed for the second time in the battle. Everyone turned towards her, and then went back to the two men arguing. It was a contrast, one in black, the other in white, almost silvery, attire.

"Kurama. Who the heck are you?"

"Well, as she," and he nodded at Sailor Moon, "screamed out, I'm Tuxedo Mask. I'm the… What's so funny?"

"Tuxedo Mask," Kurama snickered. "Can't you think of a better name than that?"

"Well… I'm wearing a tuxedo and a mask, so what am I supposed to call myself?"

"Something more creative. Or even your real name."

"I'm in disguise!" Tuxedo Mask said, annoyed.

"Yeah, yeah. If you say so. So what's your role in all of these?" Kurama asked, waving his hand around.

"I'm the girls' protector," he said proudly, only to be annoyed at Kurama snickering again. "What is it this time?"

"You… Protect them?" He inclined his head towards the Sailor Senshi, notably Sailor Moon's tiara already glowing in her hands, Sailor Mercury's water shield, and Sailor Mars holding fireballs. "What's your special power?"

"Er…"

"Hello?"

"And why are you late, anyway? If you're," and he wiggled his fingers, "'Protecting' them, why weren't you here earlier?"

"Urm, excuse me…"

"I had to have my tux pressed!" Tuxedo Mask retorted. "Besides, I always come fashionably late!"

"Hah! You fashionable? That'll be the day!" Kurama snorted.

"HEY!"

The two finally turned around at the roar. The monster, already huge to begin with, has swelled up in its annoyance, making its spikes even more dangerously, er, spiky.

"You two, see this isn't how it works. You're not supposed to fight each other. You're supposed to fight me. See?" The monster said, gesturing at his spikes. "Me. The monster. Roar. You're supposed to fight me, I get defeated, and then I go home telling my buddies I fought real, honest-to-goodness heroes."

Tuxedo Mask and Kurama looked at the monster and then turned back to each other.

"A tuxedo is fashionable!"

"Yeah! In the '60s!"

"Oh, forget it!" The monster growled, turning around and walking away. "I'm heading to Townsville instead."

The Sailor Senshi looked at each other in confusion.

"What just happened?" Sailor Mars asked.

"I don't know," Sailor Jupiter said slowly. "You want to get some burgers instead?"

Chances are, you'll only get this if you watched Yu-Yu Hakusho and Powerpuff Girls.:P I just wondered what would happen if the rose that entered the scene turned out to be Kurama's instead. There's a load of out-of-character stuff going on there (especially Kurama!), because I had way too much fun writing it.:P
