Tokyo 20th Century
After reciving the credit card from Trista, Allora decided to go shopping for stuff the needed while Zalonia got some sleep to prepare for her patrol duity. Knowing it was their fault that th enemy was here in the past they decided to keep watch on the city and the future king and queen. Zalonia and Astorid would do it that night and the next night would be Alloria's and Star's turn.
Six hours after leaveing for what she said was going to be a short shopping trip Allora finally was coming up in the elevader in each of her hands where ten bags. She was now wearing a pair of jeans and a black t-shirt with the batman enblem on the front of it. She had gone into as many as the shops that she could she even went into one store and got her floor length hair cut to the back of her knees. The stylest who had cut it was jealious of the color she even asked it was naturally black and faded into sliver or if she had it colored like that. When she told her it was natural the stylest was skeptical at first but then shrugged it off.
Now that her "short" shopping trip was over Allora was looking forward to a hot bath. So when the elevator dinged letting her know that she had reached her floor she was in such a rush that she barreled into a blond girl sending them both to floor. "I am so sorry."
When Allora looked up she was looking into the face of none other then the future queen of Crystal Tokyo. For a second Allora was sure she was going to be reconzied but then remembered she was in the past and this girl had never meet her.
"Oh no, the apology is all mine I wasn't watching where i was going. I can be such a clutz at times," Serena laughed. "Or at least that is what my boyfriend and friends say."
Allora picked her self up smiling at Serena's kindness. They both bent over and picked up the shopping bags. "Wow, that some major shopping looks like you could give me and my friends a run for our money. So you must be the person who moved next door to my boyfriend and I?"
"Yes, me and my um sister Zalonia," Allora answered. "I am Allora by the way."
"Serena, my boyfriend is Darien." Serena then spotted a black bag that had a bright pink V on it. "Oh, you went to Vs that is my friend Mina's clothing store. Don't you just love her clothes? Next time you will have to go with my friends and I we always get first pick."
"Oh, yes that would be fun. It was nice meeting you but I am sure my sister is worrying over me I was gone longer then I thought I would be."
"Ok, if you ever need anything please just ask," said Serena waving good bye.
"There is one thing I didn't have time to go search for gerocery store."
"There is one a couple blocks down but they are close now, most of the shops are closing at this time. But here," Serena pulled a pen out of her purse and wrote a number on Allora's hand. "This is the number for the best pizza in town."
"Um, we havn't got a phone hooked up yet." But in reality Allora hadn't taken the time to figure out how to use the one cell phone that Trista had given them.
"No problem, I will order my fav for you."
Allora watched as Serena pressed the buttons on the phone and ordered a pizza called the Scouts Special after she gave themperson on the other line Allora's apartment number she then turned to Allora and asked, " Will that be cash or credit card."
"Credit card." Allora then pulled the black card from her back poket of her jeans and handed it to Serena.
Serena eyes about bugged out of her head when she saw it "You have a black card, wow." She then gave the person on the other line the number on the card and handed it back to Allora.
"Well all I have to say is if and when we go shopping lunch is on you,"
"Um, sure I could do that," said Allora.
"Girl, you don't want to agree to that my friends and I could put a resterant out of business," laughed Serena. "And anyways I was joking but maybe you can hang with us this weekend if you are free."
"I should be. So yeah just let me know. Good bye."
"I will, bye."
Allora then opened the door to her apartment and came face to face with a red faced Zalonia and a very angry Star.
"I have been worrying I was about to go searching for you when i heard you out in the hall," fummed Zalonia.
"I am sorry to have worried you Zalonia, but i told you i was going shopping."
"Yes, I see that is that all you bought." Zalonia knew how her princess was when it came to shopping, Allora had to have it all.
"No, the stores are going to deliver more packages tomorrow," said Allora giveing Zalonia a big grin.
Laughing and shaking her head Zalonia asked, "Does any of those bags have food in them?"
"No, but Serena helped me order a pizza." And no sooner did she say that when a knock sounded on the door. Allora opened the door and in a few seconds the aroma of pizza filled the apartment. And the two young women dug in.
Hours later, Serena's communicator went off. When she answered it was Rei, "We need Moon down here quick. I think our new enemy has finally shown his face."
"Alright Darien and I are on our way." And with that both her and Darien transformed in thier places stood Tuxedo Mask and Eternal Salior Moon. The hurried up knowing the Scouts and Generals were in trouble.
In the apartment next door Allora was getting the almost exact same call from Zalonia.
"Allora you need to get here fast the Sailor Scouts may need our help."
"On my way, Zalonia." And she then turned into Eternal Sailor Virgo.
Sever blocks away both the Inner and Outer Scouts were battling two huge monsters and they weren't winning all them had injuries. Kunzite and Jedeitte was protecting Sailor Venus who was bleeding heavily from her side. Sailor Uranus and Jupiter were using their fists having since used up the energy in their crystals. Sailor Mercury was using her computer trying to determind a weak point, as was Sailor Neptune with the use of her mirror. Sailor Mars, Nephrite, and Zositte was doing their best to fight while Sailor Saturn on shaking legs tried to cast another silence wall but with no luck.
Finally they heard what they were waiting for,"Starlight Honeymoon Therapy Kiss."
Sailor Moon and Tuxedo Mask had arrived they started to fight the two creatures but with no luck.
On a roof top over head Sailor Aquarius stood watching the battle down below unsure of what to do she was afraid that she would be attacked since she was from outside the galaxy.
"What are you doing they need help," said Sailor Virgo calling forth her Virgonean Staff of purity. It was made of braided silver with a black jewel resting on top.
"Yes, but you forget that we are outsiders I wanted to wait until you got before I went into battle. Plus I am sure the destroyer is around here somewhere waiting for you to come out of hiding."
"I don't care we brought this enemy to their door step. Oh no, Sailor Moon!" They both looked down seeing Sailor Moon knocked to the ground and both monster barraling down on her. But just when they were about to jump down a man ran from the shadows knocking her out of the way. On his hip was a silver sword he unshethed it swung taking off one of the monsters head it vanished in to dust. He swung at the other one but it vanished before his sword made contact it then apeared behind him knocking him to the ground the man rolled and got to his feet to see the monster running straight towards him.
"That's it it's my turn," jumping off the building landed infront of the monster. "Hey ugly I am the one your master sent to find. So come on lets dance." The monster's attention was now focused on her using her staff she let out her attack. " Virgo's Maiden Kiss." Energy shot from her staff and hit the monster right in the chest knocking it to the ground.
"Wow, that was amazing. But who are?" said Sailor Moon.
"Sorry, Sailor Moon, but no time for introductions looks he is not beaten yet."
Virgo was about to attack again when Sailor Mercury grabbed her arm "From my calculations you severally weakened it. I think if you and Moon attacked it together it should finish the job," said Sailor Mercury tapping away on her computer
The monster was back on it's feet and once again charging their way. "Quick, Sailor Moon, combined your attack with mine." Not waiting to see if Sailor Moon was going to or not Sailor Virgo let out another, "Virgo's Maiden Kiss."
And that was followed by, "Starlight Honeymoon Therapy Kiss." The two attacks combined into one big ball of energy and slamed into the monsters chest turning it to dust.
Aqurius joined Virgo on the ground and waited to see what would happen. The Scouts and the Generals surronded Sailor Moon thet too waited to see what would happen. The mysterios man that had saved Sailor Moon stood in the shadows watching.
Sailor Moon was the first to speak up," Thanks for your help but who are you?"
"I am Sailor Virgo and this is Sailor Aqurius we are both from the Zodiac Galaxy," said Virgo.
"Outsiders, let Saturn, Neptune, and I take care of them," said Uranus going into a attack stance.
"No, outsiders they may be, but they saved us," said Sailor Moon. "Who is the man that is with you?"
"He isn't with us i thought he was with you guys."
The man in question stepped from the shadows now they all got a good look at him. He had to be easly 6ft 4in. He was wearing black leather pants, motorcycle boots and a black tank. His hair was long and unbound flowing down his back over his eyes he wore a black mask similar to Tuxedo masks. But what caught Virgo off gaurd was his eyes they were a deep blue that she knew she had seen before but couldn't place.
"Allow me to introduce myself I am known as Night's Shadow. And I mean you no harm, Princess Serenity," he said.
"How do you know who she is and why should we trust you?" asked Jupiter both her and Mars stepped in front of Sailor Moon ready to defend her if need be.
Once again addressing Sailor Moon he said, "Because you mother, Queen Serenity, sent me."
"Well isn't this a lovely introdution," a voice said behind the Scout. They all turned to see a man leaning against a near by buliding he was wearing black pants and a red shirt. His black hair stuck out like he just rolled out of bed, and even with the distance between them the could tell he red eyes.
"And who is that," said Mars.
"We call him the destroyer,"said Virgo.
"Mmmm yes, that is one thing they call me but my name, my dear Virgoneon Princess is Vercon the dimigod of Anarchy and Destruction," he said giving a elegant bow.
"Well get ready for fight," said Jupiter.
"My dear Jupiter, you see i wouldn't be here if not for those two," said Vercon pointing at the two Zodiac scouts.
"If you promise to leave them alone and return to the future I will go with you it is me and the ebony crystal you want," said Virgo.
"Yes, it may have seemed like that was the case, but you see I tried to destroy Crystal Tokyo but Neo Queen Serenity stopped me with her crystal. So I decided to set my sights on your galaxy, but then I learned that your Scouts were sending you to the past to hide you and your crystal my plans once again changed. Since I couldn't destroy Crystal Tokyo of the future I will destory Tokyo of the past," Vercon said clapping his hands gleefully.
"We the Sailor Scouts will stop you," said Mars
"Well, maybe later you can test that throey. I am not ready to realise my master plan yet. This was just a test to see your attacks and skills. How did you like my daemons?" he said and vanished his laugh carried through the night.
Uranus was clear up set since she rushed the spot where Vercon was standing."This is all your fault," said Uranus. She then released her attack on Virgo and Aqurius, "Uranus World Shaking"
Aqurius who was waiting for this released her own attack, "Aqurius Raging Waters."
The two attacks hit each other and expolded in a bright light when it faded away Virgo and Aqurius were gone.
"Uranus, you were told not to attack them they saved us if they hadn't come along we all could have been killed tonight and our future gone," said Moon giving Uranus a stern look.
"Sorry, kitten, but it is our job to protect this galaxy from outsiders."
Their conversation would had continued but Venus who had lost consensus during the fight finally came to thanks to Tuxedo Mask and his Golden Crystal. When she spotted Night's Shadow she squealed in delight and ran giving him a hug. He laughed and caught her up in his arms and twirled her around them sat her back on her feet. Kunzite pushed forward and stepped between the two of them he was jealous and upset that another man had had his hands on the woman who owned his heart.
"Venus, do you know this man? asked Kunzite. He held his breath and waited for her answer. He was hoping that Night's Shadow was not a boyfriend from her past. Saviour of his future queen or not if Night's Shadow had hurt his precious Mina he was going to hurt Night's Shadow.
"Yeah, this is Night's Shadow he helped me back in England by fighting with me and protecting me when I first received my powers," Venus explained. "He is also from the Silver Mallinum." Seeing the others were confused she said, "Oh, you don't remember."
"It's ok, V, Queen Serenity said they most likely wouldn't. I would like to tell everyone who I am and how I am related to the Silver Mallinum but not out here in the open. Is there some where we can meet up tomorrow?" asked Night's Shadow.
"The most private place I can think of is the Cherry Hill Temple. Do you know it?" Tuxedo Mask waited for Night's Shadow's nod then he went on. " Meet us there around dark that way Queen Serenity can join us so we can ask her and just for warning it your lieing you won't like the out come."
"I have no fear that she will tell the truth, My Prince and Princess. Until tomorrow then." He then gave them both a bow and then the shadows that were cast from the buildings reached out and surrounded him and in a blink of an eye he was gone.
The next day dawned bright the sun was shining through Allora's window casting it glow on her face waking her. Rising she stretched then rummaged through her new clothes deciding on a pink skirt and a white tank. She then jumped in the shower, glad she had purchased bodywash, shampoo and conditioner. After a hot shower she then went out to the common areas of he apartment. Zalonia sat on the couch flipping through the channels on the flare screen TV. Allora once again gave her glare that told Zalonia she was still upset at her.
Grabbing her bag and slipping on a pair of sparkley pink flats Allora looked at Zalonia once more. "I am going out to explore the city today. And no I am not going alone Asteroid will be with me." She opened her shoulder bag and the tabby cat jumped in reading him self to go. Before Zalonia could say a word she was out the door. As she walked past the door to the apartment next to her's she decided to see if Serena wanted to join her. Allora was sure even though the other girl was out fighting last night that since it was almost noon the other girl had to be up.
"Astroid, I am going to see if Serena wants to join me so that means you need to stay hidden, since you are aware if she see you the cat will be out of the bag," she gave a small laugh at her joke. She lifted the knocker and waited for the door to be answered.
The door swung open and Darien stood there in just a pair of pj pants that had tiny moons and roses on them. Never thinking to see the king of Crystal Tokyo dressed like that she blushed and lowered her eyes.
"Is Serena home?"
"No sorry, she is in class today but she should be out in a couple hours then try her at the Crown Arcade. She normally goes there after class for a chocolate shake," he said.
"Alright thank you," she said giving him a smile.
"Your welcome," he said and closed the door.
When she got in the elevator Astroid stuck his head out, "Well, Princess, I guess it is just the two of us."
"Then it is just me outfit my favorite boy," she said giving him a scratch under the chin he started to purr and bumped his head against her hand.
Stepping out into the sunlight, she looked up and down the street not sure which way to go unsure she shrugged and decided to go right. Allora was enjoying the warm sun since the this time of the year on her plant Virgo it would be full into it's winter months. Thinking back to her planet it would be covered in a deep blanket of snow. They would be getting ready to celebrate their winter holiday not to mention her seventieth birthday. She thought about the ball that would be taking place. And all the stuck up,arrogant, over dressed noble men that would be trying to get her attention in hopes that she would allow one of them to woe her. She was lucky that her parents decided on not pre-arranged a marriage for her.
"Asteroid, now that I will be assuming the Virgoneon throne it will be harder keep those over stuffed peacocks away from me won't it?"
"I'm afraid so, Princess, but maybe you will find one that you will like."
"Yeah, maybe, but I want someone like my father, a warrior. Someone who can take care of his self and not hide behind my fuku skirt." Then images of Night's Shadow poped into her head. "He would be perfect."
"Who would be perfect?" asked Asteroid little confused.
Allora started to day dream about Night's Shadow that she didn't hear Asteroid question nor did she see the sleek black convertible that pulled up and parked on the street that was next to the sidewalk that she was walking. She also didn't see the man wearing a pair stoned washed jeans and a black shirt that was stretched over his well muscled chest and arms. His long black hair was braided down his back, he got out of the car and leaned against it waited for Allora to see him when she didn't he called out, "Allora."
Hearing her name called she looked up and around a little confused. Until she spotted him, "Darius, hi I didn't see you standing there."
With a grin he said, "I could tell. Day dreaming? Hmmm, must have been about a boyfriend with the look that was on your face."
A blush spread over her cheeks and Allora gave him a smile," No, I don't have a boyfriend I haven't been here long enough to meet someone."
"Oh did you just move to Tokyo? I just moved back myself from France."
Remembering her's and Zalonia's cover story Allora told him," Yeah, my sister and I just moved from the back from the States."
"Well I am off to visit one of the botanical gardens would you like to join me?"
"You mean like a date I have never been on a date before." She didn't count the idiots that drooped over her and stepped on her toe during the many balls and dances she had attended.
Laughing Darius said, "Well if you want to call it that then, yes a date."
"I would love to join you," she said and reached for the handle of the car on the passenger's side.
Before Allora could open it he stopped her. "Since this is your first date, I better do it properly so none other can compare. And then maybe I will be the one you day dream about." He laughed when once again the blush spread over her cheeks.
Helping her in and closing the door behind her Darius went around to the driver side and jumped in without opening the door. Putting the car in gear he drove off
