Sailor Moon-American Senshi

EPISODE 3-WHO IS THAT MASKED MAN?
I do not own any of the main characters in this story except for Gilded Rose. They are owned by someone in Japan. However, with the exception of Serena Campbell and Amy Anderson, I do own the Americanized names of the characters, as well as many of the supporting characters and villians. To make things easy, we'll just say that anything that has appeared in the manga or anime version of Sailor Moon is owned by someone in Japan, most likely Toei or Naoko Takeuchi.
Wedensday, 16 April, 1986
Jake turned into the student parking lot at Malvern High school, and pulled into an empty space. He cut the engine, and he and Amy got out of the car. "Thanks for giving me a ride to school," Amy said.
"No problem," Jake said.
Later that day, in gym class, Jake's teacher informs the class that they will be playing volleyball for the remainder of the semester, and that they will be splitting off into teams. The teacher chooses six students to be captains, and Jake is one of them. The teacher then has the captains pick teams, and Jake is chosen to pick first. "Who are you going to take?" the coach asks.
Jake thinks for a moment. "Elizabeth Minako," he decides.
The rest of the class is divided up into teams, and they manage to get in a couple of games before class ends. There's something about her, Jake thinks to himself, looking at Elizabeth. Something I've never noticed before.
Meanwhile, in the Microdimension
"cYPRINE, PUCHIROL," the disembodied voice called. "REPORT AT ONCE."
Two women approached the area where the disembodied voice was coming from. The women were twins, identical in almost every way, the only difference was one woman had blue hair, the other had red hair. The only other distinguishing physical characteristic about the women was the fact that they were joined by a 6" wide band which ran from their shoulder blades to their waists. "We are at your service," they said in unison. "How can we serve you?"
"GO TO EARTH," the voice said, "STEAL ENERGIES FROM THOSE PATHETIC EARTHLINGS SO THAT WE CAN ESCAPE THIS MICRODIMENSION. IF YOU RUN INTO ANY RESISTANCE FROM EARTH'S GUARDIANS, DESTROY THEM WITHOUT MERCY."
"We will do your bidding," the women said in unison.
Later that day
Lunch had just ended at Malvern High, and Jake was walking to his next class, and he noticed people around him dropping like flies. He knew the darkness was behind it, so he materialized his transformation rose. "Transform!" he yelled, as he threw the rose down. He was surrounded by gold smoke, and when it cleared, Gilded Rose was in his place. That's when things got weird. He saw two women floating in mid-air. He could have been mistaken, but he thought he saw that the women were joined at the back. The women were accompanied by an eight foot tall creature that could best be described as a cross between a werewolf and one of the monsters from the movie Alien. The creature was covered in dark grey fur, and drooled grey-green slime. "I don't know where you come from," Gilded Rose said, "but I'm taking you down!"
"You and what army?" Puchirol, the red-haired twin asked, tauntingly.
"He may not have an army," Sailor Mars said, from seemingly out of nowhere.
"But he has soldiers," Sailor Moon added, "Sailor Soldiers. And you're looking at them."
"And we're with him untll the end," Sailor Mercury added.
"Ooh, we're scared," the twins said in unison. "I'm about to wet myself," Cyprine, the blue-haired twin said. "I'm shaking in my boots," Puchirol added. The wolf-alien just growled. "Deathclaw," Cyprine commanded. "get them."
"I'll take tall, dark, and gruesome," Gilded Rose said, "the rest of you go after the Siamese twins." Gilded Rose rushed at Deathclaw, and barely avoided a swipe from its razor sharp claws.
Meanwhile, the Soldiers were attacking Cyprine and Puchirol, who were incredibly agile for being joined at the back. They attacked by crsooing their staffs, and shooting energy bolts at the Soldiers. "Mercury Ice Spear, attack!" Sailor Mercury yelled, and sent a barrage of icicles at the twins, who were easily able to deflect them.
"Let me try," Sailor Mars said. "Mars Flame Sniper!" she yelled, and shot a flame arrow at the twins, which was deflected just as easily.
"My turn," Sailor Moon said. Throwing her tiara, she yelled "Moon Tiara, attack!" Her attack was as successful as those of the other Soldiers.
"Our turn," the twins said in unison, as they crossed their staffs. Just before they shot a bolt of energy, a red rose came from nowhere and landed in front of their staffs. Everyone turned in the general direction from where the rose came from, and saw a young man in a tuxedo, top hat, cape and mask standing on the roof of a nearby building. He had a diamond-tipped walking stick in one hand, and a crescent moon-topped scepter in the other.
"I am Tuxedo Mask," the figure said. "I ally myself with those who fight against the forces of the Darkness."
"I think it's time for us to make our exit," Cyprine said. "You're right," Puchirol answered. She added "Better to retreat and fight another day."
"Sailor Moon," Tuxedo Mask called, throwing the scepter to her, "Point the scepter at Deathclaw, and say 'Moon Scepter, elimination!'"
Gilded Rose flew to a point 40 yards behind the Soldiers. "Mercury," he called, "take a knee!" As Mercury dropped to one knee, Gilded Rose took a running start, and vaulted off Sailor Mercury's shoulders. "Gold Rush!" he yelled, as he flew towards Deathclaw. He fired several shots at Deathclaw, and when the creature was sufficiently weakened, he yelled "Sailor Moon, now!"
"Moon Scepter, elimination!" Sailor Moon yelled, pointing the scepter at Deathclaw. A crescent moon-shaped beam of energy flew out of the scepter, and hit Deathclaw, who disappeared in a black flame.
After Deathclaw was destroyed, the Soldiers and Gilded Rose looked around, but couldn't find Tuxedo Mask. "He's gone," Sailor Mercury said.
"Just as quickly as he appeared, he disappeared," Gilded Rose added.
"We safe to change?" Sailor Moon asked.
"Yeah," Gilded Rose said. "We have a couple minutes before everyone is back to normal." He looked around. "Coast's clear," he threw down his transformation rose, and the four of them were once again in their civilian identities. "Now Rae, hurry up and get out of here before everyone wakes up, and get back to St. Ignacius."
"I was on my way home," rae said. "We had a half day today. But it looks like we're alone."
Rae left before anyone woke up. But they were not alone. Unbeknownst to any of them, hidden in a tree, was a white cat with a crescent moon on its forehead. . .
