Chapter
Ten
~*~*~*~
Confusion filled Sam after they had received the message from Luna. He thought that they were done, that the Dark Moon Clan had moved on to another plan.
'Guess they were all wrong' Sam thought as he anxiously paced around the living room in his apartment. It had been over two hours since his roommate left to go find the person Luna told them to protect for the next couple of days until they could meet up with one of the Sailor Scouts.
His nerves were on edge… it never took his partner this long to find someone when they were given a new mission.
Sam was about ready to call Luna to track him until the door to the apartment opened and his roommate walked in carrying the limp body of a girl, wearing a destroyed gown, in his arms.
"What happened? Is she okay? Is she alive? Oh man… Luna is going to kill us!" Sam ranted frantically as his roommate placed the sleeping girl on to the couch and then shoved a backpack into Sam's arms.
"I'm sure she's fine. It took me forever to find her, the tracking device Luna put on her bag kept glitching."
Sam quickly looked at the crescent moon symbol on the bag and noticed it kept dully flashing like it was broken.
"Sam we've got a problem though… they sent the hounds out for her. They would never do that unless she was important… this mission isn't going to be like the others, it's not going to be easy." Sam watched his roommate sit in the recliner next to the couch, hunch over and rub his face with his hands and then leaned on his knees and stared at the sleeping girl. This mission seemed to take a toll on him already and Sam could see the stress surfacing. After a moment he let out a sigh and stood up from the chair, "I'm gonna call Luna, let her know that I found her and that she's safe for now. But tell me now if you want to back out of this mission. I don't know who the hell she is but the Dark Moon wants her and they sure as hell made it clear that they will do everything they can to find her again."
Sam stared at his roommate but didn't for one second hesitate on his answer, "We already gave Luna our word, but shouldn't I be the one asking you if you're going to be okay going through with this mission?"
Sam's roommate smirked, "You already know my personal mission is to make sure the Dark Moon doesn't win this war. Goodnight Sam," and with that said he walked into his room and closed the door.
Sam let out a sigh and sat down in the recliner. Things were getting complicated now and he had a feeling in the pit of his gut that the final battle was soon to happen. After a while his thoughts drifted to the unknown girl who was currently asleep on their couch. She looked familiar but couldn't exactly pinpoint where he had seen her. She was covered in dirt, her dress was shredded, her hair was dirtied and matted making him think that it wasn't the color he was currently seeing, and she looked like she really had a rough night.
He sympathized her… he knew what she had went through as he had gone through it himself almost three years ago. It had taken him months to block out the nightmares and the memories. The Dark Moon Clan had randomly taken him and his older brother, their plan was to brainwash them and put them in their army but for some reason the spell didn't work on him so he pretended that it did for the sake of his brother and he faked it for almost a year. One night a captive had ran away and they sent out his group into the woods to go find them, and that was when he met Luna and Artemis. He begged them to help him get out of there, he told them everything they needed to know and they helped him take out the tracking device the Dark Moon had implanted into his arm. Sam agreed to join the Silver Alliance in the hopes of one day freeing and being reunited with his brother.
Sam was the youngest working for the Silver Alliance, he was 12 when the Dark Moon had taken him and he had just turned 15. He chuckled at the memory when he met his partner, Darien. Darien joined the Silver Alliance a few years before Sam and there was a good 6 year age difference between them. Darien, at first, was hesitant to work with someone so young but after finding out about Sam's time with the Dark Moon and training with him for a few months, the two became the best agents of the Silver Alliance. Darien reminded Sam of his older brother, and they did become as close as brothers. Sam moved in with Darien a little over a year ago, Artemis thinking it would be best that the two were together when new missions would pop up. The place Darien lived in was kind of like a safe house. It used to be a cathedral until a battle between the Sailor Scouts and the Dark Moon had destroyed a good portion of it. The city then decided to build apartments, for teenaged orphans, on top of what was left of the cathedral. And because the building is still a church, the demonic forces of the Dark Moon can't enter into the building. It was the best place for them to live. During the year of them living together, Darien had opened up to Sam about his past, telling him things only Luna and Artemis knew. A lot of the things Darien did during their missions made sense now and Sam didn't question any of it.
Sam was taken out of his thoughts when he heard a small beeping. Realizing it was his communicator he quickly answered it.
"Is she alright?" the worried voice of Luna said once Sam answered the call.
"Yes, she's fine. She's asleep on the couch right now. I would move her but I'm pretty sure she won't be happy to wake up in a stranger's bed."
"Oh thank Selene," Luna said as she let out a sigh of relief, "I just finished a call with the hot head you call a roommate. Just a heads up, he's furious."
"I can imagine, he did tell you what had happened right?" Sam said as he got up from the chair and moved over to the kitchen so he wouldn't disturb the sleeping girl.
"He did and I'm very sorry about that. I didn't know that they would send out a monster to retrieve her. But Sam you need to understand that she's different from the others," Luna started.
"Who is she Luna? We could probably protect her better if we knew who she was—" Sam said as he interrupted Luna.
"I'm sorry but I can't tell you that now. It is better that you boys don't know anything. We can't risk a slip up of any kind. We have been monitoring the city over the past couple of hours and I'm sorry but it might take you guys longer than a couple of days to get her here. Right now we need to make it look like that she has already left the city. She needs a disguise, I had packed some clothes for her in the backpack but her hair might give her away... it is very long."
"So what? You want me to cut it? She'll probably kill me if she wakes up to find her long hair has been chopped up to her shoulders."
Luna giggled, "No silly, take her to a salon in a day or two after she has rested. Make it seem like it's her decision. It's just hair, it'll grow back."
"Luna, why does the Dark Moon Clan want her so badly? They've never done this with any of the others, not even the Sailor Scouts got this much attention from what I recall…" Sam wanted answers.
"I can't tell you exactly who she is… but this needs to stay between you and me. She has a strong power within her and I need to get her here to HQ so I can train her on how to use it properly. You can't tell Darien anything that I have just told you."
"But Luna—I"
"It's late Sam, you need to get some sleep. Protect her with your life" Luna said before she cut off the call.
Sam let out a frustrated grunt as he tossed his communicator onto the counter and then looked at the girl.
'Could she be the one who could end this war?'
Sam thought as he grabbed his communicator and walked into his room to go to sleep.
