Sailor Moon Eternal Senshi Part 2

Sailor Moon Eternal Senshi

A prologue to Sailor Moon Future


Part 2: The Gathering


Episode 1 - The Outer Senshi are back!


Michiru Kaiou and Haruka Ten'ou are at the city's zoo. Michiru stops to watch the dolphins.

Michiru: Aren't they beautiful? They're intelligent and their voice sounds like music... Haruka: They are like you... But you are much more beauty and intelligent.

Michiru blushes. They walk for a while, then sit on a bench.

Michiru: Say, Haruka, are you happy that peace had finally come?
Haruka: Of course! We can be together more time now... (Notices Michiru's worried look) What's wrong, Michiru, why did you ask me that?
Michiru (serious tone): Since yesterday I feel a strange evil force watching me, everywhere I go.... I'm feeling it now, but I'm not nervous if you are with me.
Haruka: So you think peace is going to be over sometime soon...
Michiru: No, it's already over... and the evil forces I feel are strongest than anyone that we had fight before.
Haruka (worried): Even stronger than Galaxia?
Michiru: Yes... (Looks away)

They stay silent for some time, until Haruka breaks the silence.

Haruka (stands up): If you are by my side, I can fight against any enemy!
Voice from behind: Well... That's a brave boy!

Setsuna Meiou and Hotaru Tomou are walking towards the couple. Haruka looks at them, a little stunned, then she sits down on the bench.

Michiru: Setsuna.... You are as sarcastic as always....
Setsuna: It's a gift from god (laughs).
Haruka: Why are you always teasing us?
Hotaru: Maybe because you look like girlfriends... (Giggles)
Michiru (upset by Hotaru's remark): And WHAT if we are??
Hotaru (trying to calm her down): I didn't say that was wrong... It's ok for me...
Setsuna: Sorry, girls... We didn't want to hurt your feelings...
Haruka: It's ok, Set-chan.
Hotaru: See you later, girls!
Michiru: Sayonara!

Meanwhile, on Hunter's ship...

Hunter: Vulture, you can't make another mistake! I'm warning you...
Vulture: But master, that Inner Senshi are strong... Specially Sailor Moon...
Hunter: Don't give me that crap! You could have beaten them, but...
Vulture: But those Senshi have special weapons...
Rex (enters the room): Lemme guess... Water or cats???
Vulture (looks at Rex, upset): Grrrr... (sweatdrops) Both...
Hunter: You can't be afraid of that, Vulture!
Vulture: But sir...
Hunter: Go away! I'll give the next target to Rex!
Rex: Well.. At last I can have fun!
Hunter: Go and capture the Outer Senshi... I heard they are an easy job...
Rex: As you wish, cousin... [I'll bring them to you dead, sucker!]

Vulture leaves the room fuming, and Rex leaves to hunt the Senshi.

Hunter: [Be carefull, Rex... I know your way of hunting!]

Michiru and Haruka are still on the bench.

Haruka: I wonder if Odango is already fighting...
Michiru (giggles): If she hear you calling her like that, she'll "punish you on behalf of the Moon"

Both Michiru and Haruka laugh.

Haruka: And I guess that Luna is still trying to make her study...
Michiru: Luna-chan is an amazing being. She's stronger than normal cats.
Haruka: Yeah... besides, she and Artemis gave the Inner Senshi their powers.
Michiru: Wonder where did Setsuna found our transformation pens...
Haruka: Yeah... But that is the Set-chan from Crystal Tokyo, not the one from our time...

Suddenly, a gorilla-like HuntDroid appears on front of them. Both girls transform.

Haruka: Uranus Crystal Power! Ready to rumble!
Michiru: Neptune Crystal Power! Let's fight!
Michiru and Haruka (at unison): Make up!
Droid (after the girls' transform): Hey, the boss said there were four at the zoo... I only see two Sailors beep!
Uranus: Watch your mouth!
Droid: Take this! (Fires an energy beam)
Neptune (gets into the beam's way): Neptune Aqua Mirror Reflector!

The Aqua Mirror reflects the beam and the Droid flies away. When the droid comes back, there are two more Senshi waiting for him.

Droid: Oh, the other Outer Senshi came to die...
Saturn: I'm Sailor Saturn, the Senshi of Destruction.
Pluto: And I'm Sailor Pluto, the Senshi of Time.
Pluto and Saturn (at unison): We're ready to fight!
Droid (laughs): Of course, Setsuna and Hotaru...

The four girls are shocked by the fact that the monster knows their names.

Uranus: How the beep you know our names, jerk?
Droid: Watch your mouth!
Pluto: I'll show you how to fight! Dead Scream!
Uranus: Space Sword Blaster!

The droid screams when is hit by both attacks, then blows. Rex is looking at the battle from the shadows.

Rex: [Next time, I'll send my own Droid to fight... Hunter's Droids are weaklings...] (vanishes)

At the zoo's entrance, everyone is talking about the fight of the Senshi against the gorilla monster. The four girls are talking, on their way home.

Hotaru: I don't understand where did that thing came from!
Michiru (worried look): I was right... The enemy is powerful... (Trails off while walking)
Haruka: I want to hear some answers to my questions! (Cracks his knuckles)
Setsuna: Then, we should go and see Usagi... I have the feeling that she knows much more than us about this new enemy...
Michiru: Hey, Set-chan! I'm the psychic girl!

The girls laugh... The Outer Senshi are on their way to see Sailor Moon, and to join the Hunting...


Episode 2 - Videogames' Menace.


Eight o'clock in the morning. Usagi is sleeping, when her mother calls her to wake up.

Ikuko (from the kitchen): Usagi! Wake up, dear, breakfast is ready!

Usagi, still trying to wake up, looks for her bunny slippers.

Usagi: [I don't know why I have to wake up early... I'm supposed to be on vacantion.] I'm coming, Okaa-chan!

Usagi finally finds her slippers... Or that's what she thinks...

Luna: Meeeeoooow! Watch out, Usagi, you are stepping on me!
Usagi (looks down to Luna): Sorry, Luna...
Luna: Never mind I'm used to that...
Usagi (looks meaningfully at Luna): What do you mean????
Luna (not paying attention to Usagi's look): Usagi-chan, every time you wake up late... (Jumps to the bed, and sits on Usagi's pillow) ... you turn your room into a mess... Maybe, if you go to bed earlier...
Usagi (not looking at Luna): If only I could get rid of those beep Hunters, maybe I could rest a little more... (Grabs "her pillow" and sends it flying to the wall) crash
Luna (falls to the ground): Meeoooow! That hurts! (Eyes on fire, she starts walking towards Usagi) Grrrrrr...
Usagi (realizing what she just did): Sorry, Luna... I thought you were my pillow... Sorry... If only I... (Trails off, silently looking at Luna)
Luna (nods, understanding): I know, Usagi, the battles against the Droids are very hard... I didn't like to be in your place!
Usagi: Well, actually... (Trails off as the door opens, and her brother Shingo enters her room) Hey, how many times I told you can't come into a lady's room without knocking?
Shingo (waves off Usagi's comment): You are not a lad... (Usagi hits him with her pillow, sending him down her desk). Itai! Besides, I think you are crazy...
Usagi (cracks her knuckles): What do you mean, Shingo?
Luna (frowns): [What a brat!]
Shingo (covers his head with his hands defensively): I mean you LOOK like a crazy girl, because you are always talking to Luna... As if she could understand you! (Laughs)
Usagi (looks at Luna, who winks to her): [Luna, are you thinking the same as me???] (To Shingo) Luna DOES understand me! (Winks to Luna)
Shingo (skeptically): I don't believe that! Prove it!
Usagi (evil grin): As you wish.... LUNA, KILL HIM!

When Usagi gives that order, Luna jumps on Shingo's shoulder, and raises her paw, claws out. Shingo is shaking fearfully.

Usagi (after several seconds: Ok, Luna, enough! (Luna goes back to her "Cute kitty" face and jumps to the floor)
Shingo (Still fearful): O- *onee-chan, you know I am STILL afraid of cats!
Usagi: Luna and me were just joking... Isn't that true, Luna??
Luna (still with her claws out, looks evilly at Shingo): Meeooooow.... [That's what you get for being a brat!]
Shingo: I believe you, Usagi, this cat understands you!
Ikuko (from the dining room): Kids! The breakfast is ready!
Shingo & Usagi (at unison): We're coming, Okaa-san!
*Older sister or older female friend

Usagi, Shingo and Luna run downstairs. Some minutes later, Kenji is talking to Usagi, and Shingo helps his mother washing dishes.

Kenji: Say, Usagi... You like Mamoru-san very much, don't you?
Usagi: Yes, *Otoo-san
Kenji: And why you don't invite him to diner someday with us?
Usagi (beaming): **Hontou desu ka?
Ikuko (from the kitchen): Yes, that way we can learn more about him, and he about us. Usagi (Ironic tone): Hmmmm... I don't know... If he knows my brother, he will run away scared.... ***Ne, Luna?
Luna (nods): Meow! (Shingo is red in anger)
*Father/Dad
**Really?
***Right?

Later that day, Usagi is on Crown, with Naru and Umino. Usagi is playing Street Fighter Zero 2, but as usual, she's doing very bad.

Usagi: Come on!
Videogame (female voice): Spinning Blade Kick!
Usagi: Yeah!
Vg (male voice): *Hadoken! Hadoken! **Shoryuken! (Screen turns red)
Usagi: Noooo!
Vg: (female voice): Kyaaaaaaaaa....
Usagi: ***Kuso!
Vg: Game Over.
Usagi (sadly): Looks like today is not my day...
Umino (pops his head from behind Usagi): Actually, NEVER is your d... (Is interrupted by Usagi punching his stomach, and gasps trying to recover his breath) ...
Naru (from behind Umino, while playing Mortal Kombat 3): Usagi, I'll think you want to steal my boyfriend... Remember that only I can hit him!
Umino (finally recovers from the punch): Very funny, Naru! (Usagi giggles)
Naru (to the videogame): Now, come on!
Vg (screen flashes): Splat! Squish! Ka-yaaa! Boooooom!
Naru: YEAH!
Vg: You win! Fatality! Flawless Victory!
Usagi (in awe): Hey, how can you win like that????
Naru: It's easy, I just concentrate on the game....
*Energy motioning fist
**Rising dragon punch
***Netiquette violator

On Hunter's ship, Vulture and Rex are watching Usagi through a monitor.

Vulture: It looks like Sailor Moon is never going to be alone! Hunter says she is the strongest Senshi on Earth... If I capture her, the other Senshi will be no threat to me!
Rex: So, just go and capture her! I don't think she will transform with so much people watching... She doesn't want her identity to be revealed!
Vulture: But Hunter says that the rules...
Rex: Look, Pigeon, Hunter's rules are bullbeep!
Vulture (upset): My name is Vulture! (Rex laughs) Anyway... I think you are right... I'll go and capture Sailor Moon!
Rex (ironic tone): At last you start thinking, Vulture!
Vulture: Hmpf! (vanishes)
Rex (smiles): I knew that rules aren't so important after all...
Hunter (enters the room, and hears what Rex last said): What do you mean, Rex?
Rex (stunned): Eeeehhh... (Tries to think in something to say) ...I was saying that Vulture is not so much interested in your rules, Hunter!
Hunter (menacing look): I know... And I know also that YOU are who less care about hunting rules, cousin.
Rex (looks angrily at Hunter): Your rules are trash!
Hunter: Be carefull of what you say, or you are going to eat your own words!
Rex (charges Hunter): And you are going to eat my fists!

Suddenly, a man in a lion suit enters the room. Seeing what is happening, he puts himself between Hunter and Rex, and stops Rex's attack "softly". Rex ends behind a computer, muttering profanities.

Man (calmly): Gentlemen, I suggest that you abandon this useless argue right now.
Rex (annoyed): The only useless thing here is you, Lion!
Lion (ignores Rex): I won't bother to answer you, Rex... I like to talk before fighting, but I don't like to insult people...
Rex (loudly): Of course! The silly girl don't know how to say bad words!
Hunter (menacingly): I order you to stop right now, Rex!
Rex: I'm tired of your commands! I'm going to hunt by my rules!
Hunter: Do, as you like... But if you get on my way, you'll eat dust!
Rex (upset, but decides not to fight right now): See you soon, Hunter! (Vanishes)
Lion (worried): Looks like we lost one of our men, Sir!
Hunter: That's false, Lion.... We just lost a traitor...

Back to Crown, Naru is teaching Usagi how to play.... And Umino can't believe Usagi is finally learning.

Vg (female voice): Spinning Blade Kick! *Kikkoken! Raising Blade Kick! (Screen turns blue)
Vg (male voice): Aaaaaaaaaaggghhhh....
Usagi: YEAH!
Vg: You win!
Usagi: I won, at last!
Naru (confused): Oi, Usagi! You're acting as if you never had won to this game!
Usagi: But it is the first time I win! (Umino laughs loudly, and Naru face-faults)
Video: Chun-Li versus **Akuma
Usagi: This one is hard!
Naru: Don't worry, I'll teach you how to b... (Trails of as she see a Droid in a M. Bison suit entering Crown) Oh, no! It's one of those weird monsters!
Droid: I'm BisonDroid, and I'm looking for Sailor Moon! (Usagi dashes behind a videogame)
*Psychic Fist
**Devil

Meanwhile, on Tsukino's house, Setsuna and her friends are looking for Usagi.

Ikuko: No, girls, Usagi has gone towards the east with her friend Naru-chan... By the way, you say you are Usagi's friend, right?
Hotaru: Yeah... Why do you ask, Tsukino-san?
Ikuko: It's just that I never saw you with Usagi.
Hotaru: Well, we've been out of town for a while...
Michiru: Ok, then, I think we should go... Thanks, Tsukino-san!
Ikuko: Call me Ikuko.
Haruka: Well, Ikuko-san, I think we better keep looking for Sai... I mean Usagi-san.
Setsuna (notes Haruka's "mistake"): Sayonara, Ikuko-san!
Ikuko: Sayonara! (Closes the door after the girls leave) Strange... I thought one of them was a boy! (Guess who? ^_^)

A few blocks away, the girls are walking towards the east, trying to figure out where Usagi could be.

Hotaru: I know! I remember that ChibiUsa took me to a videogames place a few blocks away from her house... She told me that her... friend goes there very often.
Setsuna (notices that Hotaru used "friend" instead of "mother"): Yeah, Crown! It's about three blocks from here...
Haruka (pointing at a group of people that comes running off a building): And it looks like there's some action in there!
Hotaru: Come on, girls! Sailor Moon needs our help!

At Crown, the Droid is still looking for Sailor Moon, and Usagi and her friends are hiding behind a videogame.

Droid Bison: I smell Senshi meat in this room...
Naru (whispers to Usagi): I hope the Senshi come soon to kill this thing...
Usagi: [The Senshi are on the cinema... and Mamoru is on his house... and I can't transform nor call them in front of Naru... what can I do?]
Umino (whispering): Don't worry girls, I'll save you! (Goes running towards the Droid) Hey, Bison! Here is Ryu! (Makes a pose as if he were going to toss a Hadoken)
Droid (amused): Come on, dummy, get out of here before I blast you!

Naru and Usagi try to get out of the room, but Naru trips and falls (why do they always have to do that??? ^_^). The Droid finally notices them, and starts going towards the girls.

Droid (evil grin): But what we have here? A pair of nasty girls... (Looks closely at Usagi) *Chotto matte yo! You are the one I'm looking fo... (An energy wave sends him crashing through the wall) *Nan da-?
*Wait a minute!
**What the-??

Outside Crown, four warriors are ready to attack him.

Neptune: We are the Outer Senshi...
Uranus: ... That fight for love and justice...
Saturn: ... Quit destroying this place...
Pluto: ... Or you will regret it, beep!

The other three Senshi look at Pluto, stunned. Setsuna is always very polite... But looks like today she's not in a good mood today ^_^.

Droid: Let's see if you can hit as hard as you talk!
Uranus: You will eat your words! Uranus Space Sword Blaster!

Uranus charges the Droid with her sword. Naru is looking at the fight, and she finally realizes something...

Naru: Where on the hell is Usagi?

Behind Crown, Usagi is talking to Luna.

Luna: Hurry up, Usagi!
Usagi (annoyed): That Droid is going to die! I finally learn how to play, then he comes and breaks everything!
Luna (chuckles): Well, then go there and finish him!

Inside Crown, Uranus is on the ground, unconscious. Neptune is looking angrily at the Droid.

Neptune: You beated my friend... Let's see if you can do the same with me!
Droid: Take this! (Tosses an energy ball towards Neptune)
Neptune: Neptune Aqua Mirror Reflector!
Droid: *Nani???
*What???

The energy ball reflected by the aqua mirror hits the Droid, and when he stands up, he notices another figure outside the room.

Moon (points to the Droid): Stupid monster! Come here and fight me!
Droid: This is the girl I am looking for!
Moon (motions the Droid to attack): Come on, sucker! Attack me!
Droid: Here we go! (Runs top-speed towards Moon) Start praying kid!
Uranus (recovers and looks outside): Sailor Moon? (Sees the Droid running) Get out of his way!
Pluto: Looks like Moon has changed a bit since we left her...

Naru-chan looks at them in awe.

Naru: [Why does Sailor Moon look so familiar???] (Nope, she still didn't get it. ^_^)

Moon waits until the Droid is just a few steps from her, and then she makes the same move that Beruche made on the *commercial center. The Droid lands on the face a few meters behind her, with his cape torn.
* Part 1 Episode 3

Droid: *Teme! My cape! Now, girl, you are in troubles!
Moon: Shut up, dumb!
Neptune: Now, girls!
Pluto: Dead Scream!
*Netiquette violator

A sonic wave hits the Droid, stunning him. Sailor Moon, seeing that the Outer Senshi can handle this Droid, goes behind Crown to change back to normal.

Pluto: Now that is what I call a shout! (Giggles)
Droid: What? Talk higher, I can't hear y...

The Droid is interrupted as Uranus passes running by his side, cutting him in half.

Droid: I think this is Game over...

The Droid blows up loudly. The Senshi look for Usagi, and they see her walking away a block away, but Naru gets on their way before they can follow her.

Naru: Chotto Matte! How is that every time a monster attacks, Usagi is near, and the Senshi too??
Pluto: Well... Ahhh... The truth is... [Help me, girls!]
Saturn: We can scan those monsters... And your friend,
Tsukino-san, was the monster's next target... We knew that ...
Uranus (following Saturn's train of thoughts): ... So we came to stop the Droid!
Naru (understands the truth): Oh.... *Sou ka... Please go and see if she is not hurt!
Neptune: [That's exactly what we want to do.] Yes, you are right! Let's go girls!
Saturn (while running away): Naru, take care!
Naru: Sayonara! (As she look at the Senshi running away) [Strange... They look familiar to me, too...]
Umino (gets out the crowd): Naru-chan! **Daijoubu desu ka?
Naru: Yes, ***Anata (when Umino hears that word, he "melts" on Naru's arms)
Umino: I'm glad you're ok... (Kisses Naru full on the lips)
*I see...
**Are you all right?
***Dear

Meanwhile, some blocks away, Setsuna and the others run towards Usagi.

Hotaru: Usagi, wait!
Usagi (turns around to face them): Thanks for saving me, gir... (Trails off as Haruka raises her from the ground, grabbing her with one hand by her collar.)
Haruka: Yes, we saved you, but now we want some answers... What are those monsters?

Usagi frees from Haruka's grab, and locks her, then sends her crashing to the ground. The girls look at Usagi, amazed.

Usagi: Leave me alone, Haruka! (Turns away)
Michiru: Please forgive my friend. We only want to join the battle, Usako...
Usagi (turns to face Michiru): I'm sorry, girls.... But I still have too many questions by myself... I can't answer you if I don't find the answers first... *Gomen... (Starts walking away)
Haruka (still on the floor): Shall we follow her?
Michiru: Iya... Let's leave her alone for a while... (Looking at Haruka, playfully) Now, stand up or I'll be forced to walk over you.... (Giggles)
Haruka (stands up): I prefer you to walk by my side. (Puts one arm over Michiru's shoulder)
Setsuna: Well, lover boys, where should we go now? (Michiru looks at her, but says nothing. The four girls start walking away)


Episode 3 - Hunter Saves Usagi!


Usagi is walking home, thinking about what happened on the last episode.

Usagi: [I can't understand why Hunter is chasing us.... If I can't find the answers I need, I can't be Sailor Moon anymore...] (notices someone following her) Luna, what are you doing here?
Luna: I'm worried about you, Usagi-chan! The Droids are getting stronger with every attack!
Usagi (looks at Luna, then looks towards Crown): Yeah, that last Droid was stronger than the others... But I defeat him anyway...
Luna (frowns): You beaten him because the Outer Senshi helped you... How could you toss the Droid away that far?? And I also saw how you locked Haruka...
Usagi (giggles): Oh, that! Mako-chan teached me some karate moves...
Luna: I see...

Both Luna and Usagi silently keep walking towards Tsukino's house. On Tsukino's, meanwhile, Mako, Rei, Ami and Minako are waiting for Usagi.

Rei: The movie was great!
Mako: Un! Ami was snoring, though...
Ami (embarrassed): It's just I don't like romantic movies...
Minako (frowns): Oi, Ami-chan! It looked like a great movie to me!
Mako: Yeah... Besides, the actor looks just like my ex-boyfriend...
Rei (deadpan): Here we go again...
Mako (cracks her knuckles): What do you mean?

Ikuko enters the living room with a tray of hot cookies.

Mako: Tsukino-san, you shouldn't have bothered.
Minako (starts pigging on the cookies): If you don't want any, leave them to me!
Mako (Warningly): Oi! Such manners!
Ikuko (smiles): Don't worry.... I know Aino-chan's manners, and I don't mind about it!
Minako (looks puzzled at Ikuko, but smiles): Thank you, Tsukino-san! [What did she mean by manners???]

A few miles away, Usagi and Luna are still walking slowly towards their home; not knowing someone is watching them... or something. On Tsukino's, someone knocks on the door.

Ikuko (opens the door): Oh, hello again, girls! Come in! You didn't find Usagi?
Hotaru (from outside): No, Ikuko-san, we didn't find her.
Minako (stops eating, and looks at the door stunned): Saturn?
Mako (while the foursome enters): Kaiou-san, Ten'ou-san! *Genki desu ka?
Rei (looks at them, then smiles): You are still as good friends as you were?
Michiru (laughs): Yeah, Hino-san... You got some problem about that?
Rei (defensively): Oi! I was joking!
Haruka (gets very close to Rei): I know you were... You are lucky I only have eyes for Michiru... (Rei blushes).
Setsuna (looks around to see if anyone is listening to their chat): Actually, we found Usagi... A Droid attacked her...
Rei (concerned): Is she all right?
Hotaru: Hai! She beat the Droid barehanded!
Mako (laughs): Well, looks like she learned what I teached her after all!
Haruka (nursing her arm): [Now I know why she beat me so easily...]
Ami: So, why didn't she come whit you?
Setsuna: She said she needed to find some answers, and then left walking... We decided to leave her alone... She was walking this way, though.
Haruka: Talking about answers... Do you know whom, or what, are those "Droids"?
Minako: Yeah... They call themselves Senshi Hunters.
Setsuna (shocked): Sailor... Senshi... Hunters???
Ami: Exactly... They are leaded by an evil guy called Hunter King...
Hotaru: Sou ka... On the first attack, we didn't know what those monsters was...
Mako: So you were the Senshi that fought that Droid at the zoo?
Haruka: Un. Michiru-chan and I were... (Trails off, but Michiru winks at her, and she continues) ...on a date, when that Droid attacked. Luckily, Setsuna and Hotaru helped us to defeat him.
Rei (trying to figure out what Haruka meant by "date"): Sou ka... (Notices Ami looking face-faultly at Haruka and Michiru ^_^) And tell me, where did Usagi get attacked?
Hotaru: At Crown.
Minako (spits out a cookie when she hears the name): Nani? Did they break something?
Haruka (laughs): I think that one or two videogames were saved...
Minako (almost in tears): Ma.. **Masaka!
Michiru: Haruka is just kidding! Usagi made the monster... What's their name?
Ami (still looking at both Haruka and Michiru with a funny face): HuntDroids...
Hotaru (laughs): It's an original name!
Michiru: As I was saying, Usagi made the Droid get outside.
Minako: Phew! Luckily they didn't break much stuff, then!
Ikuko (entering the room with another tray of cookies): Here you go, girls!
Michiru: Tsukino-san, you shouldn't have...
Minako: If you don't want any, then... (Looks at Ikuko, then gets crimson in embarrassment)
Ikuko: Well, then... I'll leave you alone so you can keep talking... [I didn't know Usagi had so much friends] (Enters the kitchen)
*How are you?
**Can't be!

Meanwhile, on Hunter's ship, Hunter was shouting out Vulture.

Hunter (annoyed): You know it's unfair to attack a Senshi where she can't transform!
Vulture (meekly): But she transformed sir! Besides, the Droid didn't attack her when she was on her normal form...
Hunter: He could have done that! My cousin Rex could fix some of the Droids before leaving...
Lion (enters the room): *Hunter-sama, Rex took a few Droids with him when he left!
Hunter: ... (starts to talk, but freezes when he looks at the monitor) ... Vulture, Lion... Did any of you send a Droid to hunt Sailor Moon recently?
Vulture & Lion (at unison): **Iya, Sir...
Hunter (while he vanishes): Then I must go to hunt a rebel!
*Very honored Hunter
**No

Luna and Usagi are still walking a few blocks away from their house. Night has fallen, and the full moon shines brightly on the sky. Usagi looks at it while she walks.

Usagi: Know what, Luna? I was remembering my mother, when we was still alive, back on the Moon Kingdom...
Luna: I do remember those days sometimes... It's kinda strange to remember past lives, tough...
Usagi (not paying attention to Luna): ... and my daughter...
Luna (Looks at Usagi): [Poor Usagi-chan... she misses ChibiUsa a lot...] Neo-Queen Serenity, I miss her, too (Usagi is stunned by the way Luna called her).
Usagi: I wish time would pass faster... So I can see her again...
Luna: That's impossible, you know... And you'll have to wait... (Counts) like 980 years to see her again...
Usagi: I'm going to ask Setsuna, maybe she...
Luna: *Baka mitai! That's nonsense! It's the Setsuna Meiou from the future who have the time key... not the Set-chan that lives in our time!
Usagi: You are right... But I can't take ChibiUsa out of my mind... Maybe I should go and talk to Mamo-chan... (She turns around to go to Mamoru's building, but she freezes as she sees a Droid blocking her way)
Droid: **Kawaii ne? She misses her daughter... For dead people, the time passes fast! (Starts running towards her)
Usagi: I know what you meant... But I'm not going to run away!
Droid: No one asked you that, sucker! (Lots of ropes come out from the Droid's body and tie Usagi)
Usagi (tries to break free, but can't): Nan da...?
Droid: Time to make some sliced meat!
Luna (jumps towards the Droid): I like meat... But I prefer Droid meat!
Droid (hits Luna with a beam): Shut up, kitty! (Luna hits a wall and falls to the ground, unconscious)
Usagi: Luna! You beep!, I am going to...
Droid: Don't make me laugh! You know, Sailor Moon, this is your end... (Raises his fist, which turns into a sword)
Usagi: Kyaaaaaaaaa!
Droid: Prepare to die! (Suddenly, an energy beam destroys the sword) AArgh! What the hell?
Hunter: Renegade Droid, stop right there!
Droid: What if I don't??
Usagi (checks that Luna is ok): Now you die, Droid! Moon Eternal Power, Makeup! (Transforms into Eternal Sailor Moon)
Hunter: You let me no choice, Droid! (Fires another energy beam towards the Droid)
Moon: Moon Gorgeous Meditation!
*Idiot (politely)
**Cute, isn't it?

Both beams hit the Droid at the same time. The Droid explodes, and Hunters starts to fly towards his ship.

Moon: Wait, Hunter! Why did you save me?
Hunter: That Droid was not following my rules...
Moon (confused): Thank you, I guess...
Hunter: Don't get wrong ideas! The Hunting is not over!
Moon: Why are you hunting us??
Hunter (makes some kind of screen appear from thin air, and images start showing on it. Hunter tells Moon his story):

"Many years ago, my father, Slayer King, the best hunter in all the Universe, was hunting a strange animal on a distant planet. A Senshi called Galaxia told him to stop, because the animal was the only one on its species." (Usagi shivers when she hears Galaxia's name) "My father kept on the hunting, so Galaxia killed him. I took his place, and started hunting animals as my father did."

"One day, on a planet orbiting a black hole, the three Senshi protectors of the planet told me to stop hunting there. I told them to get out of my way, or they were going to die. They attacked me, but I was stronger... I defeated them, and I kept their magical items as a trophy. From that day, I swore to hunt all the Senshi on the Universe, because they are the strongest beings on the Universe... And there's no hunter stronger than me!" (Finishes the story, and makes the screen disappear)

Usagi: Heh! You think you are a big hunter, but you can't control your own Droids!
Hunter: That Droid wasn't mine, but one of Rex Saurus'... He is my cousin, and he doesn't want to follow my rules... He started hunting by himself!
Usagi: For what I saw, the Droids can't attack the Senshi if we don't transform, right?
Hunter: Right! And other rule is not to kill a Senshi if the Senshi is alone!
Usagi: Huh?? Nani??
Hunter: You'll see... The real challenge is to hunt all Senshi in one planet before killing them...
Usagi: How awful! Why do you hunt us? Galaxia killed your father, but she was being controlled by an evil being called Chaos!
Hunter: I know that... I'm still looking for that being... I want to destroy it... But, anyway, the Senshi doesn't deserve to live! For years, I watched the Senshi Wars...
Usagi: Chaos started that war!
Hunter: I don't want to talk to you now, Tsukino-san! For today, I'm not going to hunt you, but expect no mercy when I trap all of you...

Hunter disappears, and Usagi grabs Luna in her arms (Luna is still knocked down). Usagi walks to her home, and Luna wakes up on the way there.

Luna (looks concerned in all directions): Meow! Where's the Droid?
Usagi: He's dead... Hunter helped me to destroy it...
Luna: What???
Usagi: And he explained me why he's hunting Sailor Senshi... It's all Galaxia... I mean Chaos' fault!
Luna: Usagi, the enemy is playing fair?
Usagi: Hunter does, but his cousin, Rex Saurus, doesn't... Rex sent that last Droid, not Hunter...
Luna: Now I understand!
(Writer's note: Then explain it to ME, because I didn't get the hunting stuff yet! ^_^)

Usagi and Luna enter their house. On the sky above, the moonshines, and in it we see the shape of a strange dinosaur-shaped starship. Inside it, a man on a dinosaur suit was watching Usagi.

Rex (turns off the monitor): I have some rules, too... And they tell me I must kill Hunter in order to finish the Senshi! (Looks to the monitor's blank screen again) Soon, Sailor Moon, your life will be over! BWHAHAHAHAHAHA...


Episode 4 - The Giant Droid Attacks!


All the girls are on Usagi's house, talking about what happened to Usagi on last episode. Ikuko serves them dinner, and as usual, Minako starts pigging on the food.

Ami (to Usagi): So Hunter saved you?
Usagi: Un... I know it sounds weird, but I don't think he's a bad person...
Setsuna (looks in all directions to make sure no one is listening their talk): But Usako, how can you say that? That guy is hunting us!
Usagi (Notices Setsuna's worries): Don't worry, Set-chan... My family is not used to hear other people's chat...
Rei: Yeah... But Meiou-san is right (Meiou frowns when she calls her "san") ... or should I suppose Mamoru-chan has a rival? (Grins)
Usagi: *Chigau!
Setsuna: Rei-chan, I would like that you don't call me Meiou-san...
Rei (laughing): But my parents told me that I must respect older people! (Setsuna frowns again)
Mako: Oi, girls.... Why don't we have dinner tomorrow at my place?
Luna: Are you sure? I remember that last time you said... (Gets gagged by Mako)
Mako (glares at Luna meaningfully): Yes, Luna, I'm sure! That way, we can talk without risks....
Hotaru: Looks fine to me!
Usagi: I'll go! I can't resist to Mako's cooking!
Rei, Ami & Minako (in unison): If the boss says it's ok, we'll go, too! (Usagi giggles)
Setsuna, Michiru & Haruka (in unison): Of course, see you tomorrow, then!
Ikuko (from the kitchen): You are leaving, girls?
Setsuna: Yes, Ikuko-san! Sayonara! (Low voice, to Usagi) Are you sure they don't listen to our talk?
Usagi (low voice, to Setsuna): Un, Set-chan! Don't worry!
*Mistake!

The girls leave, and Usagi goes to her room. She enters, and sees Tuxedo waiting inside (he entered by the opened window).

Usagi: Tuxedo Kamen, what are you doing here? Okaa-san could see you!
Tuxedo: Usako, Rei-chan told me what happened to you... I'm here just in case they try to attack you again.
Usagi: Don't worry, Tux... (Tuxedo frowns, he doesn't like to be called "Tux") ... Luna and Art are already guarding the area.
Mamoru (when the beep! he changed): I'm worried about you anyway, Odango...
Usagi: Mamo-chan...

Usagi and Mamoru kiss. Mamoru embraces her, and they both stay on that pose for a long moment. Usagi breaks the silence.

Usagi: Tomorrow I'll meet the girls at Mako's place, we're going to talk about the enemy... You can come if you want!
Tuxedo (Hey! How can he change that fast?): All right, Sailor Moon, see you tomorrow! (Jumps out of the window)

The next evening, Mako is finishing preparing the dinner, when she hears the doorbell ringing.

Mako: I'm coming! (Leaves the last tray on the table)

Mako opens the door, sees the girls outside, and invites them to pass. They do so, and Hotaru notices that Mako keeps her house very clean.

Hotaru: Nice house, Mako-chan!
Mako (smiles): Thank you!
Michiru: How is that you can support yourself, if you don't work?
Mako: Like Mamoru, my fathers died when I was just a girl... (Long pause. Usagi is about to say something, but Mako stops her) It's ok, I don't really remember them anyway. They left a big sum of money to me... The money is on the bank, so I just have to retire some when I need.
Rei: So, you lived from that money all this years?
Mako: Yeah... But I'm going to look for a job when I enter college... I think is time for me to start making my own money.
Hotaru: Sou ka...
Mako: Usako, didn't you say Mamoru was going to come with you?
Voice (from the window): I'm here already!
Mako (freezes for a moment, then frowns): Mamoru, get out of that window! It's a fifth floor!
Tuxedo: You are right, Mako-chan! I could fall down... accidentally (falls from the window, obviously on purpose)
Usagi: Mamo-chan! Moon Eternal Power!

Sailor Moon rapidly flies to catch Tuxedo... And she catches him just before he hit the ground. (Writer's note: In Sailor Stars, Sailor Moon rarely used her wings to fly, but I think that's what wings are for! ^_^)

Mamoru (once he's safe on Mako's house): Thanks, Usagi... I knew I could count on you...
Usagi (very angry, slaps him): slap! Baka! Why did you do that? You could have died! (She sits down, furious. Mako tries to calm her down)
Mamoru (looks at her meekly): I'm sorry, Odango... I just wanted to know if I could count on you when I need to be saved... You know I'm not invincible...
Usagi (more calmed, but still looks angrily at him): I know... But you hadn't to do that to prove it!
Mamoru: Maybe not, but it was fun... (Usagi cuts his talk with a punch in his stomach that sends him crashing hardly on the wall) (Writer's note: Wow! Usako is soooo strong! ^_^)
Minako: *Sugoi! I thought only Naru hit his boyfriend like that...
Usagi (dashes towards Mamoru): Mamo-chan, are you all right? I'm sorry, I didn't want to hurt you... [Well... Actually...]
Mamoru (takes a moment to recover before standing up): I see Mako's karate classes served you good....
Usagi (finally calms down): You know I'm not the same clumsy and crybaby that I used to be...
Rei (as usual, sarcastically): No, Usako... Now you are another crybaby!
*Wow!

Everyone start laughing or giggling, except for Usagi and Setsuna.

Setsuna: Come on, guys! I think Usagi changed a lot... Don't you agree Haruka?
Haruka: Yeah! (Playfully) She's lucky she has Mamoru, and I have Michiru... (Now WHAT did she meant by that??? ^_^)
Ami (shocked): I can't believe you two behave like girlfriends!
Rei: Why not? It looks funny to me...
Minako: Funny is not the right word... I think it's romantic...

Ami looks at Rei and Minako, even more shocked than before.

Minako (defensively): Don't get wrong ideas, Ami-chan... I don't think I could get in love with a girl... But if Haruka-san and Michiru-san want to be like they are, It doesn't look bad to me!
Haruka: Ami, I know it's difficult for some people to accept it, but I love Michiru, and I know she loves me, too...
Ami: I still can't believe it...
Haruka: If I kiss her, you will believe me?
Ami: Huh??? Actually... (Trails off, not sure of what to say)
Haruka (embraces Michiru, who smiles): Then I'll do it!

Both Haruka and Michiru lean forward to kiss, but Mako puts her hand between them, and they end kissing Mako's hand. Mako blushes, shocked by the fact they really were going to kiss.

Ami (a little puzzled by the scene): I you two were actually going to kiss to show me that you love each other, then I believe you, Haruka... But I still don't agree with Minako-chan...
Minako: Talking about lovers... (Looks in Usagi's direction, who is in the other side of the room, hugging Mamoru and talking with him happily) ...I know two people that would die for each other...
Mako (looks at her watch): All that talk is fine, but the food is gonna get cold!
Usagi: Someone said food??? (She dashes out of the sofa she was sitting in, and Mamoru, who was leaning on her, falls to the ground)
Minako (looks embarrassed at Haruka): As a matter of fact... One of them would die for the other... If food don't interfere...

The girls start giggling, and Usagi tries to make them tell her what's so funny, but gets no answer. On Hunter's ship, Vulture explains his new plan to Hunter and Lion (Writer's note: another one? How many times does he have to be beaten up to learn that the Senshi are unbeatable? ^_^)

Vulture: ... my former plans failed, but I'm going to send a very powerful Droid to hunt all the Senshi, now that they're all in one place...
Hunter (laughs evilly): Vulture, I like your idea... We'll kill ten birds in a single shot!

Hunter starts laughing loudly, while Vulture and Lion look at each other puzzled (they think they're good hunters... and they didn't "catch" that joke! ^_^). A new figure, on a jaguar suit, enters the room.

Jaguar: Hunter-sama, the new hideout is ready!
Hunter (stops laughing): That's great! If Vulture fails again, he will have to hunt the Senshi from there...
Vulture: I won't fail, Sir!
Hunter: I know you will do your best... But remember we are still waiting for someone very important...
Vulture: I understand, Sir! From the new base I can watch over the city more easily.
Hunter: And once you trap all the Senshi, our traveler will be alone against me... Just as I planned it! BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHA...

On Mako's house, the dinner is over, and the entire group is talking about the same theme... the Hunters.

Mako: Usagi, what you are trying to say... Is that Hunter is good?? (Looks at Usagi in disbelief)
Usagi: I know he's hunting us... But for what I saw, it looks to me like someone is tricking him...
Minako: Nani?
Ami: Maybe you are right, Usagi... Just remember Dimando and Safir...
Rei (thinks about the fight against the Wiseman): Un... Dimando and Safir was framed by the Wiseman... But, in this case, I think there's no one framing Hunter...
Mamoru: Usagi, that guy, Rex... You say he's Hunter's cousin?
Usagi: Hai. And he rebelled against him...
Rei (realizing something): Just like the Wiseman rebelled against Dimando! (Usagi nods)
Minako (deadpan): You are crazy, guys! This freak wants to kill us all, and you are thinking that maybe he's good after all!
Setsuna: Maybe we should try and talk to Hunter...
Usagi: I tried to do that... But he didn't want to listen...
Michiru: If Sailor Galaxia killed his father, his hate for the Senshi must be big...
Usagi (nods): Yeah... He tried to hide that when he talked to me... But I could feel his hate in every word he said...
Haruka: If he gets in my way, I won't think on how to talk to him, but on how to hit him!

Suddenly, a sound like giant footsteps can be heard. Usagi looks out the window.

>Mamoru: Nani da?
Usagi (looking through the window): Boys, we have big troubles now...

Outside, an enormous Droid is looking for the Senshi. Sailor Moon flies trough the opened window to face the Droid.

Mamoru: Usako, wait... Don't go on your own!
Minako: Mamoru, hurry up! Venus Crystal Power!
Mako: Let's go, girls! Jupiter Crystal Power!

The Senshi transform, and run to the street to join the battle. Sailor Moon is trying to fight the Droid alone... But her attack cause no harm.

Jupiter: Let's attack together, or that big guy is going to crush us!
Uranus: I don't need any help to kill that freak! Uranus Space Sword Blaster! (Charges on the Droid, who is about 30 feet taller than her)
Neptune: Haruka, watch out!

The Droid captures Uranus easily, and look menacingly to the Senshi.

Uranus: [Oh, shoot! Now I'm in troubles!] Hey girls! Maybe I could use a little help to kill this freak after all!
Droid: Oi, Sailor Moon! Why don't you try to free your friend?
Moon: As you like! Moon Gorgeous Meditation!

The beam hits the Droid, but he doesn't even feel the hit.

Droid: Funny! I like those pitiful attacks! Give me more!
Mars: Girls, we have to work together to beat this punk!
Neptune: For once I agree!

The Droid fires a big fire beam towards the group. Neptune gets on the way of the beam.

Venus: Watch out, Neptune!
Pluto: You don't know her well, Venus!
Neptune: Neptune Aqua Mirror Reflector!

Neptune's mirror reflects the beam, and it hits the Droid, who lets Uranus free.

Neptune (smiles): Venus, nothing can pass through my mirror!
Venus (very big eyes): Sugoi!
Jupiter: Take this, Droid! Jupiter Oak Evolution!
Droid (still a little stunned by his own beam): No, thanks! (Deflects the leaves, that hit Saturn)
Jupiter: Kuso! Saturn!
Droid (catches Saturn, who is unconscious): The first of many... All you are going to fall!
Tuxedo (tosses a dozen roses towards the Droid, tying him completely): Don't forget about me! I wanna play, too!
Droid (absorb the roses): Well, the Masked Freak finally joins the fight!
Moon (Angrily): Don't insult him! Starlight HoneyMoon Therapy Kiss!

The Droid reflects the beam, and Sailor Moon falls to the ground.

Droid (captures Moon): That's the second... This is fun!
Tuxedo: Odango!
Mercury: Let my friends free you stupid monster! Mercury Aqua Rhapsody!
Droid: Thanks... (Absorbs the water beam) ... for the drink! (Captures Mercury with a rope that gets out of his body)
Uranus: Ami-chan! Ok, Let's do it, girls!
Mars: At last! Are you going to work as a team? (Uranus nods) All together, Senshi!
Uranus: World Shaking!
Jupiter: Jupiter Oak Evolution!
Venus: Venus Love and Beauty Shock!
Neptune: Deep Submerge!
Pluto: Dead Scream!
Mars: Mars Flame Sniper!
Tuxedo: Take this, Baka! (Tosses a lot of roses to the Droid)
Droid: How boring!

The Droid reflects all the attacks, and then he captures all the Senshi but Neptune and Venus. They run away, and try to think on what to do next.

Venus: Iya! All were captured... Without Moon, we can't win!
Neptune (looks around, then grins): Wait, Venus! I have an idea!

Neptune runs away, and Venus follows her, trying to guess what's her plan.

Droid (looking around): Come on, girls... I'm not going to hurt you, I promise... My boss is going to do that! BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA... (His laughter makes the surrounding building rock).
Venus (from a high building's roof, exactly above the Droid): What are you planning, Neptune?
Neptune: Venus, can you blast that water tower? (Points to a water tower on the roof)
Venus: Hai! Oi, are you planning to drown him?
Neptune: Didn't you notices that Ami-chan's beam was absorbed, not reflected? I think that's his weakness...
Venus: ... So we only need to hit him with a big amount of water, and that should finish him!
Neptune: I guess so...
Venus: I like your plan! [Besides, it's the only thing we can do...] Venus Love and Beauty Shock!

The Droid looks up, and sees a big blob of water falling on him.

Droid: Oh, shoot! (The water splashes him)

Venus and Neptune look down, but they see the monster is still there, and he didn't let any of their friends free.

Droid (coughs, then looks up to the roof): Nasty girls! You want to drown me, huh? (Laughs)
Neptune (sadly): There's nothing we can do... We can't fight him being only the two of us, Minako!
Venus: Don't say that, Michi... (Trails off as she sees a light beam hitting the Droid, which lets Sailor Moon go)
Neptune (stunned): Nani da...?
Voice: Let my friends free, you damn Droid!
Moon (happily): That voice...
Venus: ...is the voice of...
ChibiMoon: Sailor Moon! Let's attack together!

From his ship, Hunter is watching, unimpressed.

Hunter (evil grin): The traveler has finally arrived... Now I can trap all the Senshi in one single place...

To be continued...
