CHAPTER 3: A New Town, A New Enemy
Makoto breathed the fresh air in deeply. In her hands were two plastic bags filled with groceries for their new apartment. It was a nice size for four people. There were three bedrooms. Hotaru and Makoto were going to share the master one while Setsuna and Tenshi each got their own room. There were two bathrooms and a kitchen with a view to the living/dinning room. They were on the second floor so they also had a small balcony that over looked the street below. The local high school was only three blocks away. Honestly, they didn't think Setsuna could have found a better location.
Most of their stuff would arrive tomorrow. They didn't take everything. Just a few pieces of furniture and their clothes. Makoto had also packed her plants. Ami and Michiru had offered to take care of them for her, but she wanted them to bring some green to their apartment. Plus, she liked taking care of them, though she'll probably have enough to take care of while living with Tenshi. A smile spread across her face. It was going to be fun living with others for once. She couldn't wait to cook dinner for everybody tonight.
"Somebody help!" Came a sudden scream around the corner. Makoto immediately took off running in that direction. When she rounded the turn she saw a youma attacking two young girls.
"They're already here? Damn them!" Makoto growled. Quickly she hid from sight and brought out her transformation pen. "Jupiter Crystal Power, Make-Up!"

Karin and Yuzu had been walking home from the park. Ichigo was still missing along with Orihime and the others. Yuzu was feeling sad again so the tomboy decided they needed to get out for awhile. They had a lot of fun at the park but ran into a little trouble on the way home. Some freaky monster suddenly materialized out of no where in front of them. It was different from the past ones. For one, Yuzu could see it. It also didn't have that strange bone mask.
The two were frozen in place as the walking lizard looking thing began to advance on them. Karin took a step back, but her sister couldn't move. Getting ahold of herself for a second the red hatted girl screamed. "Somebody help!"
The monster screeched and began to charge. Karin quickly grabbed her sister and threw herself out of the way as the thing slashed at them. The two fell to the ground and winced. Both looked up as the create turned to face them. It licked it's lips and let out an ear-piercing shrill. Yuzu clutched to her sister, her whole body shaking in fear. Tears welled up in her eyes as the thing began to charge at them again.
"SPAKLING WIDE PRESSURE!" A ball of lightning suddenly hit the monster in the side, sending it flying and skidding on the concrete. "Picking on little girls? That's pretty low."
Both girls sat up and looked to their right. There stood a tall brunette in a green and sugar pink sailor type dress. Karin could feel a strange aura surrounding the girl. It wasn't like her brother or the others. It made her feel... well... safe.
"Attacking innocent little girls is low. I am Sailor Jupiter! I will punish you with the power of thunder!" She yelled, pointing at the monster.
It recovered and charged at her. She jumped over it and crossed her arms in front of her chest. A small lighting rob came out of the tiara on her forehead and an electrical charge emitted from it. "SUPREME THUNDER CRASH!" Another electrical attack was shot out and hi the monster in the stomach. She didn't stop there. The warrior quickly followed by charging at it then jumping up and kicking it square in the jaw. Again the thing went flying, this time into a wall.
Sailor Jupiter looked over at the two girls. "You two, stand back! I don't want you getting hurt." she ordered. Karin nodded, helped her sister up, and moved back more. They hid behind a gate and watched as the fight continued. Karin asked, "Who is that girl?"
"What? You've never heard of the Sailor Senshi?" Yuzu asked, completely surprised.
Karin looked over at her. "Sailor Senshi?" they sounded familiar.
Yuzu nodded. "They fight monsters in Tokyo all the time. They're mega famous and super cool!"
"Tokyo?" Karin looked back at the fight. "Then what is one doing here?"

Jupiter quickly dodged the lizard's tail as it sung at her chest. The thing had moved to close for her to use her energy attacks. They were now in hand to hand combat. The youma had the upper-hand as it had razor sharp claws, teeth, and a bone crushing tail. The brunette hoped her power alone would be enough to stop the thing. If it wasn't, this was going to hurt, a lot.
The youma screeched again and tried to bite her. She was able to move out of the way in time, but didn't see it lash out its claws until it was too late. The three talons cut across her stomach and she gasped for air. She fell back and hit the ground. The pain clouded her mind for a moment. She recovered in time to roll away from the youma's tail as it came crashing down, causing a small crater where she used to lay. Jupiter got up and quickly put some distance between herself and her enemy. She needed to finish this quickly, before those girls got hurt. She needed to call Hotaru and Tenshi.
Jupiter tried to get her communicator out, but the youma came at her again. She blocked his arms and kicked him in the stomach. Grabbing one arm she turned and threw him over her shoulder. This gave her the chance she needed to call for help.
"Move it ponytail!" came a harsh voice behind her. Jupiter looked up in time to see a small blonde haired girl in red sweatpants and jacket jump clear over her, a sword in hand. She chopped down on the youma, cutting deep into it's shoulder. The monster screeched and stumbled backwards. The girl turned to face Jupiter. A dust of freckles were sprinkled under each of her eyes, and she had a sharp tooth sticking out. Her blonde hair was in pigtails and the sheath for her sword was strapped to her back. "Idiot, what are you standing there staring for?"
The brunette took a moment to take this all in. She was just saved by a kid? With as sword? "Who are you?" she asked.
The girl began to pick her nose casually, while giving Jupiter a look. "Idiot, what kind of question is that?"
"But-." Jupiter stopped when the Youma got up and hissed. Both girls turned to it and charged. Jupiter powered up an attack while the girl fixed her grip on the sword. The girl jumped ahead and was bringing her sword down again. Jupiter threw her attack at the blade of the sword, electrifying it. The girl brought it down. This time she was able to slice the monster clean in half. It gave out one last shrill before the body disintegrated and the electricity on the sword powered down.
The girl looked at her sword then turned to Jupiter. "Sarugaki Hiyori." she suddenly said.
"Huh?" Jupiter asked, not understanding
"Don't say 'huh?', that's my name." She said, jabbing a thumb at herself.
"Oh, I'm Sailor Jupiter."
"What the hell kind of name is that?" Hiyori asking, twisting her pinky in her left ear.
Jupiter blinked. "It's my alias." she explained. "Thank you for helping me."
"Idiot, I didn't do this to 'help' you. That thing was in my way." she snapped. She then turned and walked away. Jupiter watched her go as she held her stomach. Thankfully the cuts she had received earlier had stopped bleeding. No doubt one of the twins would heal it when she returned home.
"Are you ok?" Turning, she saw the two girls come out of their hiding place.
She gave them a reassuring smile. "don't worry. I've had worse than this. Are you two alright?"
"We're fine. Thanks for coming to our rescue Sailor Jupiter." The one in the pink dress said, smiling.
Jupiter nodded, then jumped backwards onto a house and disappeared from their sight. She de-transformed and waited for the girls to leave before getting her groceries out from behind the bushes she had hid them in. This had been an interesting day. That girl, Hiyori. She had very good skills with that sword. She was definitely not some punk trying to look tough. That girl had been trained to fight. Makoto would have to tell the others about this. If that girl was here, maybe there were others. Maybe they could ask for their help. It was clear that she alone could not fight off the youma, and the twins and Setsuna had the Arrancar to deal with.
Deciding it was best to discuss it with the others, she picked up her bags and finished the walk home. Unknown to her she was being watched by Hiyori and a young looking man. The two were floating in the sky above her and watched her as she continued on her way. Hiyori had to admit, the girl knew how to fight. She had heard of the Sailor Senshi, but thought they were just some pansy girls looking for fame. They had some strange powers however. This green one was able to control thunder and lightning.
The boy squatting next to her watched the brunette go with a curious eye. His blonde hair went down past his ears and was bowl cut shaped. He wore a black dress shirt with a white and black stripped tie and tan dress pants. He had his sword drawn and was resting on his shoulder. Hiyori looked down at him. He had watched the fight so she didn't have to explain anything. In fact he was the one that asked her to help the senshi. She had objected of course but he bribed her with taking her chores for the next two days.
"What are you thinking Shinji?" Hiyori asked.
He stood up, he was much taller than the pigtailed girl. "She could help us and tell us what that thing was. It wasn't a Hollow."
"Dumbass. We don't need her. She isn't a Vizard. All we need is that Ichigo kid." Hiyori groaned, throwing her comrade a glare.
He rolled his eyes, and turned away. "We'll see." Suddenly a sandal whacked him on the back of the head. He clutched it and groaned. Looking over his shoulder he say Hiyori had one of her sandals in hand.
"Idiot! Why would we need a humans help? She can't even take care of herself!" She yelled.
"I meant that we should just wait and see if we do cross paths again you idiot!" He yelled back.
Hiyori put her shoe back on and walked ahead of them. "Whatever. Lets just get back already." With that the two vanished.

Makoto got home without anymore delays. Hotaru was in the living room going through a couple of boxes that held dishes and cooking pans. She hadn't changed her style much since her past life. She still wore the black turtle neck and skirt with tights. When they would go out she would wearing something different, but most days she stuck with this outfit. The violet eyed girl looked up when she heard the door shut and smiled at her friend. Instantly her smile faded when she saw the spots of blood on Makoto's orange halter top vest. She jumped up and rushed over to her friend.
"Makoto what happened?" she cried.
Makoto set her bags down and let Hotaru lead her over to a stool. "A youma attacked a couple of children. I had to save them."
Hotaru nodded as she placed her hands over the brunette's stomach. Both girls began to glow a soft lilac color. Makoto could feel the stinging pain start to subside. In a few more seconds it was completely gone. The older senshi smiled at her friend as she took a seat next to her. Healing still took a lot out of Hotaru, though she no longer collapsed or had seizures. When asked what fully happened, Makoto told her it was best to wait until everyone was home. Tenshi was out, he wanted to see their school and the easiest way to get there. Setsuna was out at a tailor shop making sure her transfer got through and was getting her work schedule. After resting a little more Hotaru got up and made them some tea to help them relax.
It wasn't a good sign if the youma already knew where they were and were attacking. Maybe it wasn't them they were targeting though. In the past, most of their enemies were stationed in Tokyo because that was where the Imperial Silver Crystal was. This enemy might not be after Usagi's power however. If they were attacking in other towns, then maybe what they wanted, was to just destroy the world and all life on it. That sent shivers up the girls spine. Other than Chaos, the rest of their enemies had wanted to rule the world. Chaos had it's own personal grudge against Usagi. They needed to get in contact with the other senshi as soon as possible and see if they had found any new information. Probably not as it had only been one day since they left the big city.
"Makoto! You're home! And you brought food! Yay food!" Tenshi cried as he came bursting through the front door. The too jumped a little at his sudden entrance. "What are we having? Are you cooking tonight? I want sukiyaki!"
His sister threw a glare at him. "Tenshi tone it down some will yah?"
"Sorry Taru, I'm really hungry after that walk. Our school is pretty cool looking. I can't wait to go and meet all the hot girls." Both girls sweat-dropped.
Makoto then got up. "I guess I better start making dinner then. Did Setsuna say when she would be home?"
"In about an hour." Hotaru replied, letting her brother have the rest of her tea.
"Good. When she gets back I'll finish telling you what happened." the brunette said, getting the food out of the grocery bags.
Tenshi blinked in confusion. "Eh? What happened?"
