The Price of a Queen
Chapter 4: Venus' Struggles
Demando let out a evil chuckle.
"I simply returned them to the Dark Side. Now Serena, you join us now." Sailor
Moon stepped back.
"I'll never join you Demando!" She raised her scepter, "Moon Scepter
Elimination!"
Before the blasts hit them they all disappeared into the night.
"I'll return for you my love..." Demando's voice said as it faded away in the
wind.
Inside the temple Rei was pacing around.
"Where is that Meat-Ball head!?" Mina put a hand on Rei's shoulder,
"Rei, Serena is having a rough time right now, please try and not fight with
her."
"Where were you guys!!!"
Rei and Mina looked at the door, Sailor Moon stood there, holding her scepter,
breathing hard.
"Serena? What happened?" Luna said trying to calm Sailor Moon down.
"I was attacked! I had to take on Rubius, Demando, Black Lady, Prince Darien,
and some monster by myself!"
Sailor Moon transformed back into Serena and sat on the bed and put her head in
her hands,
"They took them from me, and they'll take you too." She muttered out then
started sobbing.
"Who took who Serena?" Mina said sitting beside her friend.
"Demando! He took Ami and Lita, they'll come for you and Rei soon," she sniffed.
"He used the Black Crystal on them and turned then evil."
"Demando turned who evil?" Artemis asked.
"Darien and Reni! Prince Darien and Black Lady! They're back now, Wiseman is
taking everything I care about, from me!"
Mina hugged Serena.
"We're really sorry we weren't there to help you
Serena."
"Thanks Mina." Serena tried to smile.
"Ok scouts, time to talk about what we are going to do." Artemis said jumping
onto the table.
"Right Artemis! Well, I can ask my grandpa if you guys can stay at the Temple
for a while."
"That's a great idea Rei." Luna commented.
"I have to go home and get some clothes and ask my mom is I can stay." Mina said
as she stood up.
"Me too." Serena added.
"Ok, you guys go home and get your stuff and we'll meet back here at 8."
"Kay, catch ya later Rei." Serena said and grabbed Luna and left.
"What are we going to do Ami?" Lita said as she slowly shifted in the pile of
hay.
"Oh Lita we have to have faith that Serena and the others are going to save us."
Ami lowered her head, and took her hand of the metal bars.
"Help us." She muttered under her breath.
She turned swiftly to tend to Lita after Lita let our a scream.
"My knee!" Ami crouched by her friend on the cold stone floor of the dungeon.
Her fingers gently explored her friends injury.
"You broke it, I'm going to have to set the bone. It's going to hurt." She
looked up to Lita. For a brief second she could see a mild flash of fear in
Lita's eyes. Lita nodded.
"Ok, go," and she shut her eyes and bit her lower lip. Ami placed her hands
carefully and pushed down.
"Rei, I'm worried about Serena. She is in a very emotional state right now. I
mean with Darien and Reni turned evil again, Lita and Ami were taken and she
thinks those Black Moon freaks are going to get us too, and well you know about
Demando."
"Yeah I know Mina, I'm worried too. I guess we'll have to watch her till this is
over."
"Good idea Rei, common Mina lets go!"
"Ok ok Artemis! Bye Rei!" Mina took Artemis in her arms and ran off to her
place.
Prince Darien entered the thrown room and bowed to Prince Demando.
"My prince, the team is ready to retrieve Sailor Venus." Demando raises his
hand.
"Thank you, now leave me." Darien's eyes turned to slits as he muttered,
"Yes prince." Then he disappeared.
"How can Serena love such a annoying man? No bother, she shall be mine soon. I
always get what I want." Demando let out and evil laughter as an image of
Neo-Queen Serenity appeared.
When Mina arrived home and asked her mother if she could stay at the temple for
a couple days her mom told her no.
"But mom I have to!" Mina whined in protest.
"Sweetheart, you have company." Mina's mom told her.
"What I do? Who?" A pair of warm hands covered Mina's eyes.
"Guess who." A male voice said.
"Ummm Andrew?" She guessed.
"Andrew? Who's that? How could you forget a handsome voice like mine?" He took
his hands off Mina's eyes. She turned around and saw a handsome boy, the same
age as her, short blond hair and blue eyes.
"ALAN!!!" She screamed and mauled him with hugs.
"Nice to see you to Mina." Alan said hugging Mina back.
"I'll leave you to alone, you have lots to catch up to."
Serena walked towards her house at a fast pace.
"Sailor Moon..." A faint male voice said. Serena stiffened and called out.
"Who's there?"
"Princess Serena..." The voice called again.
"Show yourself!" Serena yelled out into the lone street.
"AAAWWWWWW!!!!" Serena whipped around to see the remains of a Black Moon
monsters turn to dust. A golden dagger landed on the ground infront of the pile
of dust. She rushed over and picked it up. Inscribed on the hilt of the sword
was, 'For the princess.' Serena looked around to see who stopped the monster but
nothing was there.
"Luna this dagger has something written on it." Luna jumped onto Serena's back,
"What does it say Serena."
"It says, 'For the Princess' could this be about me?"
"It could be. We'll get Rei to do a fire reading on it."
"So Alan why are you in Tokyo?" Mina asked and sat on the couch next to Alan.
"Well I came to visit you Mina. I miss you! Why did you leave France anyways?"
"Well, umm, I just had to." Alan looked at Mina weirdly.
"You're still so secretive. The same way you were while you lived in France. I'm
here for a week, my dad is here on business and I came along." He smiled at Mina
and took her hand.
"Just like old times." Mina smiled and thought to herself, 'Finally a guy who
really likes me, and one I like back.'
"Old times!" Mina smiled.
"Avery! Stop with your make up and lets go! Demando won't stand if we're late!"
Rubius paced back and forth outside of Avery's room.
"Ok, just let me put on my lipstick" Avery called from inside.
"Hey Avery that's my lipstick! use one of yours!" Prisma yelled out. Rubius
sighed and stormed into the room.
"You two stop your fighting right now! Avery lets go, NOW!" Rubius grabbed
Avery's arm and disappeared.
"Rei! You just can't invite you lil friends to stay at the temple anytime you
know. And besides, things have been to hectic anyways, with those Sailor Scouts
always here."
"Grampa! Serena and Mina ARE staying here! They are in danger and this is the
only safe place for them." Rei said, her fuse was very short.
"Danger from what?"
"Things, I did a fire reading and it showed me a vision, and Mina and Serena
were in danger." Rei said so slyly.
"Fine, very well. They can stay."
"Thanks Grampa!" Rei said and ran off to fix her room.
"Hey Rei!" Serena called as she opened Rei's door.
"Hi Serena, where's Mina?"
"You mean Mina's not here yet? Serena got here before someone, something's not
right. Rei, call Mina on the communicator." Luna said and jumped off Serena's
shoulder.
"Yeah Rei, tell Luna I'm fine but I can't come and stay at the temple." Mina
said looking around to make sure Alan wasn't around.
"What? why not?" Rei yelled.
"Rei, shhh! You know that guy Alan I told you bout? The one from France? Well
he's in town and came to visit me. Sorry I have to go talk to you later." Mina
said and hung up.
"Hey Mina, who you talking to?" Alan called from the living room.
"Oh just a friend." Mina said and walked in the living room and sat next to
Alan.
"I really missed you Mina."
"I missed you to-" Mina was stopped in the middle of her sentence by Alan's
lips. She backed away surprised.
Alan looked at his hands.
"Oh Mina, I'm soo sorry! I didn't mean to-"
"No Alan, I was just surprised that's all." They kissed again. Mina thought
(WOW! I'm being kissed by a hunky guy, and he's MY guy) Their kiss was cut short
when they heard a scream outside.
"What was that?" Alan said holding Mina in his arms protectively. Mina thought.
(Oh no! The black moon people are here to take me, why didn't I go to the
temple)
"Alan, stay here, I'll go see what it was."
Mina ran out side, not knowing that Alan had followed her. Rubius and Avery
appeared in the air.
"Ready to join your friend Sailor Venus?" Avery said and started to laugh.
"Venus Star Power!" Mina yelled and transformed into Sailor Venus, right before
Alan's eyes.
"Artemis, go watch Alan." Venus told Artemis. "Ok, Venus, be careful." With that
Artemis went off to find Alan.
"Mina?" He whispered under his breath.
"You're mine!" Rubius said and grabbed Alan and knocked him out.
Alan came to and was restrained, both of his arms were tied to a light post on
either side of the road. Sailor Venus was on the ground, the talking cat was in
the hands of Rubius. Avery kept blasting Venus. Rubius let out a evil laughter,
"Oh Sailor Venus, seems like you lil boy is all tied up." Mina turned and saw
Alan and screamed his name. A car came around the corner, it was going to hit
Alan, as it neared Venus powered up her new attack.
"Venus Comet Blaze!!!" She screamed and a comet surrounded in bright yellow
light streaked forward and broke the holds. Alan passed out and was lying in the
middle of the road. Sailor Venus ran as fast as she could and pushed Alan out of
the way just as the car was on him.
Alan rolled over to see Sailor Venus unconscious on the hood of the car. The
driver got out of the car to help her, Avery and Rubius disappeared with
Artemis. Sailor Venus wasn't breathing and Alan scrambled up and tried to give
CPR to Venus but he was too freaked out. The driver called an ambulance.
"I am Sailor Moon, the champion of Justice. I will- Venus? VENUS!!!" Sailor Moon
and Sailor Mars appeared and saw the scene. Sailor Moon ran over to Venus,
"NO! Venus!!!" She screamed and shook Mina's unmoving form. The tears were
streaming down both Sailor Moon's and Mars's faces. The ambulance came and took
Sailor Venus to the hospital.
"Please, don't take her." Sailor Mars prayed.
