Hey! Welcome to Chapter 3!! Nothing else to say so, get readin! ^_^
Disclaimer: I don't own Sailor Moon
********************
Tara stared at the dark figure when suddenly something emerged from it. It was an energy ball, very similar to hers, but an ice blue. It moved too quickly for Tara to react, and it hit her, hard. Before she knew it, ice started to build on her, and in a matter of seconds, she was frozen solid. Then, another energy ball shot out from the shadows and this time, aimed for the scouts. The ice containing the Senshi shattered, and they were free.
Venus looked to Sailor Moon. "You guys fight her while I see who that was!" she said.
"Right!" Sailor Moon said.
Venus ran off just as the ice around Tara cracked and black light shot through the little crevices. The ice shattered. As the attacks and battle sounds faded in the distance, Venus ran in the direction she saw the energy balls come from. It took her into a dark alley. She ran down it, and saw a figure run around the next corner.
'Aha' Venus thought. 'Gotcha!'
But as Venus ran, because of the dark alley she tripped over something, probably a garbage can. She quickly got up and ran around the corner. The sun's brightness emerged, causing Venus to shield her eyes. She looked around, but saw nobody around. 'Why do I have to be such a clutz?' Venus mentally asked herself. She turned around and began to walk back down the alley when she saw something glimmer in the very dim light. Venus walked to where the glistening object was. She picked it up. She couldn't make out what it was in the dark so she ran to the end of the alley where there was sunlight again.
It was an ice-blue crystal in the shape of a heart with a silver frame around it. "What's this?" she wondered. Then she remembered something on all Scouts' uniforms. It was a heart at the middle of the bow on their bosoms. "A Sailor Scout??" Venus said in shock.
She ran back to the battle. She was too late. She saw Tara kick Sailor Moon as she came at her, right in the face. She then opened the portal, crystal in hand, and stepped through it, the portal closing behind her.
Sailor Moon pounded on the ground as a tear fell from her eye. "I failed again!" she said in between sobs. Sailor Mars tried to comfort her as Sailor Mercury walked to the motionless body of the teenage boy. She scanned the boy on her Mercury computer and got some information on his condition.
"Guys! I gotta show you something!" Venus yelled as she ran towards the other 4 Scouts.
"Yea Venus?" Jupiter asked.
"Well, I was chasing whatever it was that helped us, but it got away. But when I walked back, I noticed they had dropped something" She held out the crystal heart. "Look familiar?"
All the scouts looked to their own bows and the crystal in the middle. "Another Scout??" They said simultaneously.
"It has to be. Other than this crystal, there's also the fact that only a scout can possess that kind of power, other than evil, and since they helped us, I doubt she's evil." Mars said.
"I also found out something." Mercury said. "I did a scan on the boy with my computer."
"…And?" Venus asked.
"Well, you were right about the person looking so empty Venus" Mercury said.
"Huh? What do you mean?" Venus asked, confused.
"Well, it seems this new enemy is taking away people's souls." Mercury said with sadness in her voice.
The scouts all gasped.
"But…without a soul…a person can't live…they're not whole…" Jupiter said.
"I know…" Mercury said
"We have to beat them!" Sailor Moon choked out. "Its our job as Sailor Scouts!"
"Yea!" Venus said. "Next time that girl attacks, she's toast!"
*******************-The next day-
BBBBBRRRRRIIIIIINNNNNNNGGGGGG!
Serena walked to the telephone and picked it up. "Hello? Tsukino residence."
"Serena! Turn on the TV!" Lita's voice boomed from the phone.
Serena pulled the phone back for a second from Lita's loud voice. "Why?"
"Just do it!" Lita said "Quickly!"
Serena walked to her TV. She switched the 'on' button and watched as the picture slowly came into view.
"…Far past Pluto, the newly discovered planet is covered by ice and snow, and is extremely frigid. The scientists have named it 'Icycon' due to the icy surface. More on this as it comes…"
Serena stood in shock. "Th…the new scout!"
"I bet it is!"
"Call the others and tell them! We'll meet at Cherry Hill Temple." Serena said.
"Okay!"
*******************-At Cherry Hill Temple-
"Luna? Artemis? Do you anything about this new planet?" Amy asked.
"No, not a thing" Luna said.
"We've never even heard of it." Artemis said.
"Do you think it's the new scout? Sailor Icycon? Would that be her?" Rini asked.
"Most likely" Darien answered.
"I wonder what is taking Lita so long." Serena said.
As if magically answering Serena, he communicator beeped. She switched it on to see Jupiter. The picture was unclear and static got in the way of Jupiter's voice. She could tell Jupiter was hurt.
"Guys…gotta…help…attack…park…Ken…" was all that Serena could make out above the static. But it was all she needed to hear. Then the screen went blank. "Jupiter!"
"Lets go!" Mina said.
"Moon Cosmic Power!"
"Mars Star Power!"
"Venus Star Power!"
"Mercury Star Power!"
"Moon Prism Power!"
********************-At the park-
"Sparkling Wide Pressure!"
"I'm getting tired of you pests getting in the way! I'm gonna finish you off!" Tara said.
"Not if we can help it!" Sailor Moon said, running out from the bushes.
"Not the rest of them!" Tara yelled.
"Who exactly are you!? And why are you taking people's souls? People need their souls to survive! Without them, they can't live!" Sailor Venus shouted.
"I am Evil Princess Tara, subject to Queen Solayna" Tara said. "And you do not need to know our plans, now get out of the way, or you'll pay!"
"Come on guys, lets show her who will pay!"
The scouts concentrated their powers into one big attack. "SAILOR PLANET ATTACK!!!!!!!"
"AHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!" Tara screamed in pain. She held onto the crystal as tight as she could. When the attack was through, she still grasped it tightly. She laughed. Although she was hurt, she still had enough power to open the portal and step in.
"Nooooo! Ken!" Jupiter cried out. Tears spilled from her eyes to the ground as she pounded her fists on the soft grass.
It was then that Sailor Moon noticed a big slash on Jupiter's side. "Jupiter! Your hurt!" She ran to her friend's side and looked at the wound.
"It looks deep" Amy said.
"I should've protected him…" Jupiter said between sobs, ignoring the immense pain on her side.
"Don't blame yourself Jupiter…" Venus said. "Don't worry, we'll get Ken's soul back. You said yourself together we can beat these guys.
'Now I'm not so sure…' Jupiter thought to herself.
********************-A few days later-
Serena stepped in her house. She had just gotten back from checking up on Lita. She had been taken to the hospital on the day of the attack along with Ken. Lita was up and out the next day, but spent a lot of her time with Ken. Serena knew the hospital couldn't help Ken, or the guy or little girl Tara had attacked, but at least they would get proper care there.
She plopped on her couch and flipped on the television.
"…Tomorrow should be sunny and warm, another beautiful summer day. And now we have some breaking news from Tim!"
"It seems Icycon isn't the only planet past Pluto! That's right! While examining the new planet Icycon, the spacemen discovered a planet not far from it. The strange thing is…the two are exactly identical! Like twins! Scientists have decided to call the two 'The Icycon Sisters' due to their exact similarity. The planet they discovered first is named 'Cyllene' and the second 'Ceron'. We will hopefully have more information on these two 'sister planets' soon. And now Jack with sports…"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Well, that's chapter 3! Two new planets! Wow! Ok, I know scientifically that it would probably take years to get to the next planet, and that we haven't gone past Pluto, but this is my ficcy! Please no flamez! I'll get chapter 4 out as soon as possible!
