Chapter 14 – Kidnapped!

Serena and Kousagi found a small town as twilight took over the sky.

"Finally!" Kousagi groaned, "I'm getting tired of walking."

Serena was quick to spot a café along the highway. They hurried inside and took a table at the back.

"So, you're telling me this isn't your world?" Serena asked, continuing their conversation from their long walk.

"No, in my world, the sky is pink, and crystal towers everywhere," Kousagi confirmed, "maybe we are in your world."

"I don't have a world," Serena bit the inside of her cheek, could it be possible that she's back in Sam and Dean's world. Maybe she can find them to make sure they're okay.

"Well, we're in someone's world," Kousagi shrugged her shoulders.

"Anything for you, ladies?" The waitress interrupted their conversation.

"Pudding!" both chimed at the same time.

The waitress giggled, jotting down their order.

"What are your parents like?" Serena asked once the waitress left.

Kousagi's eyes moistened at the word 'parents,' but she shook her head.

"I am the youngest daughter of Neo-Queen Serenity and King Endymion," She sighed, knowing she wasn't telling the entire truth.

"Really?" Serena saw through the lie, "come straight with me, kid."

"No, I am by title their daughter, but I was found on the palace doorstep in a pink basket when I was a baby. They cared for me ever since," Kousagi confessed.

"So, you never knew your real mom or dad?" Serena sighed, feeling pity for the child.

"I never knew my dad, but I know who my mom is. Neo-Queen Serenity used to tell me stories about her," Kousagi smiled, "Neo-Queen Serenity's blood runs through my veins, as my mother is Sailor Universe, her twin. She's the keeper of the universes."

Serena sat there, stunned, and silence rained over them. The waitress brought them their pudding, and neither spoke as they ate, and their conversation laid to rest. Since Serena didn't have cash, they dined and dashed afterwards.

In the parking lot, Serena hotwired a car, with Kousagi's transfixed eyes watching her every move. When the car roared to life, they took off down the highway. Serena had to get to Bobby's to make sure Sam and Dean were alive.

Kousagi rummaged through the glovebox finding a map. She opened it and directed Serena to Sioux Falls South Dakota.

It took a day and a half with little sleep, but Serena finally pulled the stolen blue Eco into Bobby's driveway.

Serena's eyes surveyed the car graveyard and house.

"Everything looks the same," Serena said, stepping out of the car.

Kousagi scrunched her nose at the mess when she emerged from the passenger side, "why would anyone want to live here?"

Serena shook her head, walking over to her, taking the kid by the hand before jogging up the steps.

She knocked on the door, and Bobby was quick to answer.

"Bobby?" Serena gushed, wanting to leap into his arms, but reframed as Bobby isn't a hugger.

"Serena?" Bobby choked out, "what happened, where are Sam and Dean?"

"You mean they're not here?" Serena gulped, wondering where the boys are. She hoped they weren't lost in time or in the wrong universe, "What's the last thing you remember, Bobby?"

"All I remember is smashing into a brick wall, and then I woke up here," Bobby explained.

He ushered the girls into his house, taking them into the kitchen. Bobby scurried around the kitchen, making tea for Serena and gave Kousagi some water.

"Drink it," Bobby ordered.

"We're not demons, Bobby," Serena laughed, knowing Kousagi's drinking holy water.

"I have to be sure," Bobby muttered, turning away from the girls when he didn't see smoke coming out of the kid's ears.

"Have you tried calling them?" Serena asked as Bobby put a cup of tea in front of her.

"What do you think, ya idjit! Of course, I tried calling them, but they're not answering," Bobby cursed.

Michael woke up in a sandbox at a deserted playground, surrounded by two of his fellow angels. The moon hung high in the sky, and the stars twinkled brightly, a sight Michael has never had the pleasure of seeing on his world.

"Who are you?" Castiel demanded, pointing an angel blade at him. "I know you're not Dean."

"It's me, Michael," Michael shoved the blade away, knowing it couldn't kill him. He pushed himself up onto his feet, dusting the dirt off his blue jeans and his red-black flannel shirt.

"Where am I?" Michael surveyed his surroundings, knowing he wasn't on his homeworld, or Sailor Moon's.

"You can't be Michael; he's still in Heaven!" Anael huffed, "you're lying."

"I don't think he is," Castiel backed away from Michael, "you're not from this world, are you?"

"Ding! Ding! Ding! And circle gets the square," Michael laughed, "I'm from another world, but…" his voice trailed off.

"Something brought me here," he finished once he could find the right words.

"Dean said yes to you?" Castiel sighed, knowing this wasn't supposed to happen yet.

"Man, you are on the ball today," Michael patted Castiel's back, "Listen, I got things to do, Lucifer to kill. I'll see you later."

Michael flew off.

"This is not good," Castiel groaned.

Serena watched Kousagi from the doorway as she slept in Bobby's bed. The small girl snored softly, her little button nose reminded Serena of a mouse, always twitching.

"She's safe," Bobby tapped Serena on the shoulder.

"I know, but how do I send her back to her own world," Serena sighed.

"Beats me, kid, but we will look after her," Bobby gave a half-grin.

"She's an orphan," The words slipped from Serena's mouth without thought, "never knew her mother or father."

"Poor kid," Bobby didn't know what else to say.

"In a way, she's like us, a wayward kid, always lost, never found," Serena sighed.

Bobby nodded, his mind taking him back to when Sam and Dean were kids. John was hardly in the picture, but Bobby was, and he loved those boys like they were his blood, and as much as he hated to admit it, Serena was starting to grow on him.

"Come now, let her sleep," Bobby took Serena by the arm and guided her downstairs and into the living room, "You can take the couch."

Serena nodded, her eyes shifting to the red couch, and she smiled, seeing a blanket and pillow awaiting her.

"Thanks, Bobby," Serena gave him a pat on the back before shuffling over to the couch and making her bed. Bobby disappeared down the hall, and Serena could hear a door slam shut.

She laid down and closed her eyes, but no more than fifteen minutes later, she felt eyes on her.

Angel eyes.

Serena's right hook connected with a hand; her eyes flew open, staring at Castiel, who blocked her punch.

"What the hell Cas," Serena tore her hand out of his.

"I have disgruntling news," Castiel stated, taking a seat on the edge of the couch.

Serena sat up and pulled her knees to her chest, "spill."

The confused and worried look on Castiel's face, his deep brown eyes boring into hers, scared the crap out of Serena. She's never seen him display emotions before.

With a frown, he spoke words Serena wished he'd take back, "Dean said yes to Michael."

A chill filled the room as Serena swallowed her words. They sat in silence for what seemed like hours, but it was mere seconds.

"Why?" Serena finally sputtered out.

Castiel had no answer, "He's not our Michael."

Serena's world is ending, knowing who possessed Dean's body. She could still remember his fingers all over her, "Michael is from apocalypse world."

"How did he get here?" Castiel needed answers, and Serena was a good supplier at the moment.

"I don't know," Serena thought back to Sailor Moon's world and everything that happened, "On Sailor Moon's world all the universes and timelines were colliding, it's possible that Michael got through and forced a 'yes' out of Dean."

Castiel nodded, "that makes sense."

"What about Sam, where is he?" Serena's heart skipped a beat, fearing the answer.

Before Castiel could open his mouth, a scream shook the house.

"Kousagi!" Serena hollered, she threw off the blanket and raced upstairs with Castiel not far behind her.

She quickly turned on the bedroom light, to find the bed wrinkled, the blankets askew and Kousagi gone. On her pillow was a white sheet of paper.

Serena slowly stepped towards the bed, and with shaking fingers, she picked up the note:

Come to the place where it all began by noon tomorrow.

Lucifer

"Do you know what this means?" Castiel asked, reading the note from over her shoulder.

"Yes, I do." Serena recognized Sam's handwriting. Lucifer has taken over Sam's body.

00000000000000000000000000000

Lucifer tapped the cage that held his new pet, "Come now, pet, play nice."

Kousagi barred her teeth at him like a rabbit dog, spewing curses only sailors on ships would use.

"And you kiss your mother with that mouth," Lucifer tsked, "I see you have her fighting spirit."

His words gave Kousagi, pause, "You know my mother?"

The glint in his eyes sparkled as his smile grew wide, like the Cheshire cat.

"My dear, you smell just like her," Lucifer inhaled deeply, "and you hold power."

Kousagi gulped, clutching her brooch that she had found when picking flowers four years ago, tucked inside a red rose.

"You have never met my mother!" Kousagi screamed, thinking he's lying, "And if you ever did meet her, she'd kick your sorry ass!"

Lucifer smirked, hitting the cage again with his hand, "Get some sleep, we got a big day tomorrow."

Serena's lucky that Bobby's cabinets are always stock for spellcasting. She quickly found a summoning spell, and with all the ingredients, and with Bobby's help, they summoned Michael.

Michael appeared before them, and Serena's fingers quickly lit a match, tossing it on the ground at Michael's feet. Fire sprang up around him.

"You summoned me, and now trap me with holy fire," Michael growled, staring daggers at Serena, "I guess you're more than a pet now."

His words chilled her to the bone, but she shook it off and glared at him.

"Lucifer has Kousagi," Serena bit out.

"And why should I care?" Michael said.

Serena clenched her hands into fists; she hated seeing Michael use Dean's body for a joyride.

"Because I know you want to kill Lucifer, and I know where he will be," Serena forced out a proposal.

"Fine, I'll work with you, but you have to give me your crystal," Michael countered.

"Damn you," Bobby spat, raising a bottle filled with holy oil, ready to light it on fire and burn Michael back to Heaven.

Serena stopped Bobby with a look, before turning back to Michael.

"Why do you want my crystal?" She asked, even though she knew the answer.

"To imbues it with my energy," Michael chuckled.

"I won't become your slave again," Serena hissed.

The room fell silent as a staring contest between Michael and Serena took place; the heat in their eyes could burn down a house.

"What if I promise you, you won't be my slave," Michael relented somewhat.

Serena bit the inside of her cheek, afraid Michael is lying. It wouldn't be the first time he lied to her, and it won't be the last.

"With your crystal brimming with my power, we can open a portal to my world, and I will take Lucifer with me, deal?" Michael sweetened the pot. "And the girl will be free."

"What about Sam and Dean?" Serena voiced her concern.

"We will relinquish their bodies before we leave," Michael said, opening his arms wide to show his compliance.

"Fine."

Serena doused the fire with water, but her eyes never left Michael's as he waltzed up to her. Their breaths mingled as he stopped in front of her. His fingers trailed up her arm slowly, leaving goosebumps in their wake until he got to her crystal. Serena bit her bottom lip, refusing her body to quiver at his touch. Michael encased the crystal within his hand and closed his fingers around it. Closing his eyes, Michael focused his essence into the crystal, filling it with his blue light. Fear, admiration, and loathing crept up Serena's spine.

"Don't take control," Serena panted out each word.

Michael chuckled, letting the crystal go, "no control." He held up his hands and backed away.

Serena felt the energy within her body; she was beaming with power. Not Sailor Moon power, but power non-of-the-less.

"We leave before noon tomorrow, be back here by then," Bobby hissed out.

Michael gave Bobby a side glance before flying off.

"I do hope you know what you're doing," Bobby huffed, angrily cleaning up the spell's mess.

"Me too, Bobby, me too," Serena whispered
