I feel absolutly horrible for not updating sooner. The marking period just finished so I have been slammed with tests. Writer's block didn't help the situation either. So I hope this long chapter will make up for it. Even though I have a long weekend I won't be able to update as I'm going on vacation.

As usual I don't own Sailor Moon, only my OCs.

Enjoy this chapter everyone!

Ch 8-Sun Fire

Kira pov

I stood up and stretched after I had finished my homework. I didn't have much because I had started it in school but I had it in every subject. Man, when they slam us they slam us HARD!

I could hear Rei outside talking to Grandpa(I STILL had to get used to that). I stepped out into the hallway, knowing that the girls were going to be here soon.

The hallway creaked as I walked showing how old the temple actually was. As I passed a door that was open just a crack, a flash of energy coursed through me, stopping me in my tracks. I silently slid the door open, unsure if I was supposed to be in here.

A large fire burned in the center of the room, mats surrounding it. I had seen and heard Rei in here praying. She was always muttering about the Fire of Mars. But as I approached I could tell that it wasn't any fire from Mars. Well it was but it wasn't.

It reminded me a lot of home, the Sun Palace. But it also had the feel of our cousin kingdom, the fire colony of Mars.

I faced palmed as I realized the answer was right in front of me. This WAS the ACTUAL Sacred Fire of Mars, born from a spark of the Sun Flames. BUt how was it on Earth? It should have died along with the rulers of Mars and Sun.

"Kira! Everyone is going to be here soon!" Rei yelled, jerking me out of my trance.

"Coming!" I yelled back, running out of the room.

I skidded to a stop in the courtyard and looked around . No one except Rei was there.

"I thought you said they were here!" I yelled.

Rei just shook her head before replying, "No, I said that they would be here soon."

Suddenly the top of a brown hiared head emerged, closely followed by ping cones. Demi reached the top first with her hands held high over her head as if she had won a marathon.

"I win!" She shouted before adding, "Man, you have a lot of steps. Now I know how Po felt."

Rei cocked her head in confusion. Apparently Dreamworks doesn't translate into Japanese.

"It's from a movie." I supplied.

Rei nodded as two blonde meatballs appeared. I could already hear Usagi's heavy breathing. Rei's jaw dropped and she stared at Demi.

"How did you three manage to get here early!"

"I don't like to be late. It's a pet peeve of mine." Demi shrugged.

It was true. She always got to places at least 5 minutes early. She gets it from her walking calender mom I guess.

Too my surprise a black cat bounded up next to Usagi as Demeter ran up to Demi and I. I had never seen a normal cat be so well trained. Impressive as it was just as hard to get Demeter to do ANYTHING according to Demi.

Brushing it off as a Japan thing I grabbed Demi's wrist and ran into my room, slamming the door shut. After making sure Demeter made it in of course. As usual Demeter and Apollo began chattering before I could even take a breath.

"Ah. I can finally talk again. It seems like Luna or one of the Tsukinos are always around. Have you had as much trouble?" Demeter sighed.

"Not as much. I really only have to worry about Rei or her grandfather most of the time." my guardian replied swooping down from the window near the ceiling.

Demi collapsed on my bed and began bouncing up and down. Sometimes I swore we were both ADHD because I had done the same thing when I had first arrived.

"Of course the Soul Searchers decided to come to Japan at the same time as us. I feel like a maid. Can't we go for a few days without an attack? Ever heard of a vacation people?" Demi grumbled, "Cool room by the way. I'm sharing with Usagi."

My room was solid white but was covered in posters I had brought from home. There was a large dresser with a mirror against the far wall and my bed directly opposite to it. A desk somehow managed to sit on yet another wall underneath the window.

"Girls!Focus please!" Apollo scolded, "Those Sailors that showed up at the battle, I recognized them. Like you I didn't remember any Sailor Moon or Chibi-moon either."

"I think I sensed someone familiar. It didn't seem like Endymion so I assumed that it was one of the do you think Demeter?" Demi added quietly.

Endymion has been a soft spot for her ever since we became Guardians. She was more desperate to find him than I was to find Serenity. But chances are they are together. Aunt Serenity would never separate them purposely.

"It could very well be Endymion asI I noticed that all the other's energies seemed slightly off." Demeter added.

"Well one thing is for sure. We're gonna run into them again sometime soon." I finished, silently pleading for answers from my grandfather, Helios, knowing that they would never come.

Please review as I love to hear feedback from my readers. Hope you enjoyed!
