*DISCLAIMER* This story is heavily based on the anime and manga of Sailor Moon. I do not own it, just the characters in this story. "Sugar Scouts" is copyright Sarah Maynard, summer of 2000.

Sarah and her little group walked home. It had been a few weeks since the last attack. Melanie joined the group and fit in well. They were all best friends and were heading to Sarah's house for a sleepover.
"Your mom's pretty cool to let us spend the night, including our pets." Melanie said to Sarah.
Sarah just rolled her eyes.
"I had to clean the whole house, and I have to clean it after. Plus I'm getting pretty good grades in my classes." she replied.
"Good thing, too. I might've been kicked out of the house if you hadn't." Fruitti said.
"Hey! I've got everything together!" Sarah yelled and turned around to face her friends. "Have a lil faith in me!"
She grinned and gave her friends a peace sign, then promptly slammed into someone.
"Ack! I'm so sorry!" she said, turning around and rubbing her head.
"Oh, hi Mason!" I haven't seen you slithering around lately." she said, looking up to the blond hair, blue eyed guy.
"Well, I haven't had you around to bother. Watcha been up to, Chocolate Head?" he replied, tilting his head slightly and smirking at her.
"URGH!! I wish you'd stop calling me that! My name is Sarah!" she cried, and stormed off, dragging a sweatdropping group of friends.
Fruitti rolled her eyes as they were finally out of Mason's sight.
"Really, Sarah. Do you have to yell like that every time you see that boy?"
"YES! He makes me so mad!" she shouted to her guardian.
"Alright, alright.. Sheesh.." Fruitti replied, stroking her ear, as the rest of the group burst into laughter.
Once as Sarah's house, the fun began.
"You know.. I got some weird vibes from those two new girls, Jennifer and Rochelle.."
Melanie nodded. "You think they could be new scouts?"
"Possibly.." Fruitti replied.
"Come to think of it.. I felt some weird vibes around Alyssa." Sarah said, looking thoughtful.
"Mint, why don't you tell us all you know about the Sugar Scouts legend." Aimee asked to her blue guardian.
"Well, we know there are a few more scouts out there. Sailor Lollipop is the leader. So, do act like it!" Mint said, staring directly at Sarah, who was sweatdropping.
"Anyway, there is something more to the Sugar Scouts legend. I says that among you is the Candy Princess. She will be the one to defeat the evil forces, along with all of your powers, using the legendary Candy Staff."
"Wow.." Jessica said, a dreamy look in her eyes.
"What about Tuxedo Hershey? Where does he fit in?" Sarah asked, thinking of his deep blue eyes.
"We're guessing he's the Chocolate Prince, the love of the Candy Princess." Wintergreen replied.
Sarah wondered who among them would be the princess. She thought of the times that Tuxedo Hershey had helped her and the way he had looked at her when he had woken up from the fight against the broccoli monster. She sighed, but was brought back down to Wonka by Aimee shaking her.
"C'mon.. let's watch some movies." she said, and they settled in, digging into the snacks Sarah had brought up. But Sarah couldn't think about anything else, but Tuxedo Hershey and the Candy Princess.

Queen Veggie walked to the altar of the mighty VegaForce.
"Oh, mighty VegaForce, I offer you this precious energy, in exchange for your help in conquering Wonka and defeating the Sugar Scouts." she said, holding her hands out, her head bowed. A swirling ball of light flew from her hands and disapeared as a dark green mas of energy appeared.
"You must find the Candy Staff.. It's power is limitless and necessary to us. "Once the staff is in our grasp, the Candy Princess will be nothing to us." a voice hissed.
"Yes, my lord." Queen Veggie murmured, bowing, then rose to her feet.

A voice was calling out to him. He ran up to a big stone monument.
"Where are you?" he called out.
Suddenly, a figure in a wispy dress and long hair flowing in the wind appeared. Her face was hidden but something upon her forehead glowed.
"Please help me live again.." the figure whispered. "Find the Candy Staff.."
"Wait! Who are you?" he called out to her, his brown cape frlowing in the wind.
Mason awoke in his apartment. He panted, and sat up in his bed.
"So.. I really am Tuxedo Hershey.." he murmured. "Sailor Lollipop.."

Sarah couldn't sleep. She kept thinking about Tuxedo Hershey and the legend of the Candy Princess. She got dressed and quietly crept out to take a walk.
Suddenly, a squash monster grabbed her.
"Mwahahaha! Your energy is mine!" it hissed.
Sarah tried to scream, but found herself weakening. She stopped struggling, and sagged in the monster's arms. Suddenly, a hershey bar hit the monster's arms. It hissed and dropped Sarah, who had fainted. Tuxedo Hershey fought against the monster, but it disappeared. He turned to Sarah, who lay crumpled on the ground. He gently picked her up, and took off.
When he arrived at his apartment, he layed her gently on his bed. He knew it was risky, but she needed to rest, and the street was not a good place to rest.
He removed his hat, but kept his mask on, in case she woke up. He brushed some hair from her face.
"What kind of monster would attack an innocent girl?" he whispered softly. Suddenly, he caught sight of a small object in her hand.
"What's this.." he wondered, and reached over to grasp it.
It was Sailor Lollipop's transformation pen.
He gasped.
'Sarah is Sailor Lollipop?!' he thought, looking at her face. 'It can't be..'
He touched the pen to her forehead, and a small symbol glowed on her forehead. He covered his eyes as there was a bright flash of light. When he looked back, Sailor Lollipop lay before him.
His grasp on the pen loosened and it fell as he stared at her.
'I can't believe it..' he thought. 'She really is Sailor Lollipop..'

Sarah groaned loudly as she began to wake up.
She opened her eyes and found herself in someone's apartment, and transformed.
"Hmm.. I guess I must've been transforming when the monster grabbed me." she said to herself.
She looked around the apartment, and caught sight of something laying on the couch. She pulled herself up from the bed and walked towards it. She reached the couch and bent over to take a closer look at the object. It was a mask lying on top of a brown cape.
"What the.." she said aloud.
"I guess you've found out my secret." a voice said out of nowhere.
She gasped, being startled, and turned, almost dropping the mask. It was Mason.
"Mason?!" she said, her mouth hanging open.
"Yeah.. You've found out who I really am.. Sarah." he said softly.
She blinked and walked up to him. She held up the mask to his face. She looked up into his eyes. She studied his face, and remembered the night Sailor Oreo arrived. She gasped.
"You ARE Tuxedo Hershey!" she said, lowering the mask.
"And you're Sailor Lollipop." he said, smiling a bit. He then frowned and raised his hand to the Lollipop jewel in her tiara.
'Could it be..?' he asked himself.
She looked up at him, confusion apparent on her face.
"We better get you home. It's late." he said, smiling and turning away from her.
"Oh.. Right." she said softly.
He retrieved his mask and cape and turned to her.
"Ready?" he asked, and she nodded. He then picked her up into his arms.
"Whoa!" she cried, throwing her arms around his neck.
He smiled and headed out towards the balcony.
Her eyes boggled when she saw how high up they were. She closed her eyes tight adn wrapped her arms more securely around his neck.
He jumped and off they flew. She clutched at his cape, keepinhg her eyes tightly closed.
"Scared of hieghs?" he whispered to her.
She meekly nodded and he tightened his grip on her. He spotted the place where he picked her up, and went in for a landing. He set her down gently and she unwrapped her arms from around his neck.
"Well, I guess I better get home." she said softly, looking up at him.
"Oh yeah." he said, blushing as he unwrapped his other hand from her waist. She blushed too, and smiled up at him.
"Thanks for rescuing me and all." she said, her voice low.
He nodded and they gazed at each other for a long time. Their faces inched closer and closer until their lips were about to touch when the monster that attacked Sarah earlier jumped out.
They broke apart and turned as the monster launched itself at them.
Sarah narrowed her eyes and pointed the Lollipop Wand at it.
"How dare you steal my energy then ruin a moment! On behalf of Love and Innocence, I will defeat you!" she said, her voice full of anger.
Her wand appears and floats in the air. She appears and reaches out to grab it. She spins around slowly, her eyes closed and then comes to a stop hold her wand horizontally in front of her. She says "Lollipop!" as she raises it up in the air, then says "Sugar!", as she goes down on one knee. She finally shouts "Love Shock!" as the wand glows and sends out thousands of little hearts and lollipops. The squash monster is hit with a giant lollipop and is destroyed, having been reduced to a pile of gleaming white sugar.
Sailor Lollipop smirks in triumph and turned to Tuxedo Hershey. She blinks as she realized he has disappeared.
"Good job, Sailor Lollipop." she heard, and looked up.
"You proved you're able to defeat an enemy by yourself." Tuxedo Hershey said to her, smiling gently.
"Hope to see you soon.." he said softly, and flew off.
She watched him fly off as she detransformed.
"Hope to see you, too.." she murmured.
