Guess Who's Coming to Dinner
Part 3

	There was a crash from one of the nearby rooms. "I'll get that. It's probably just Skie," said Salem.
	"Uh, uh. Either we all go or we don't go," said Mara. "I'm getting a bad feeling about this."
	The Jewel Senshi and their boyfriends went to investigate the crash.
	What they saw was a potted plant that had been knocked off the fireplace mantle. 	"See, Salem was right. It was just Skie. She must've knocked the plant over," said De.
	"If it was just Skie, then where is she?" asked Mara still picking up negavibes.
	"Skie! Where are you kid? Come on out. We're not mad." called Salem. No answer came.
	The senshi searched the room. "Here she is," said Ariel. 
	The little sky blue kitten was hiding under the couch shaking with fear.
	"Aww, the poor thing's scared to death. What's the matter baby?" asekd De reaching for the frightened kitten. "Ow! She scratched me!"
	"Something's got her really spooked, and it's not just the plant," remarked Salem.
	"Real mind there, Salem," sneered Mara.
	"Hey! Something's got me!" screamed Naru.
	The others turned to where she was standing and saw that the plant had wrapped a vine around her leg. The flower in the broken pot got up on its roots and grew. As it grew, it formed a head, arms and torso of a woman with its petals on her back. The youma began to drain her energy.
	"Help me someone! Get this thing offa me!" Naru yelled.
	"Naru!" Nephrite pulled out his sword and lunged at the youma. He sliced through the vine surrounding her leg and caught her as she began to faint. "I've got you Naru-chan."
	The youma's arms turned to a mess of vines and began thrashing about trying to snatch more victims. A vine caught Mara, Opal, Raistlin, and Tilion and began to choke them. 
	"Moonstone! Destroy that thing! Now!" yelled Salem.
	"Moon discus... MAGIC!!" She threw her skirt's jewel at the vines and it grew into a razor-sharp frisbee. The frisbee boomeranged and cut the senshi free.
	"Nice shot De. How 'bout aiming for my neck next time," said Mara.
	"That's not the time for this," said Opal. "Kill it now Moonstone while you still have a chance!"
	"Amber... GLUE!" said Sailor Amber, who had recovered from her brief power drain. A sticky amber colored substance covered the youma and stuck it to the floor, temporally immobilizing it. "Go ahead and whack this weed De! I've given some more time here."
	"Moon Beam Blast!" she held up her bow's jewel and a beam of concentrated moonlight struck the youma's chest. But it didn't entirely kill it. "Hey no fair! You're supposed to die!"
	"Let me try. Tilion, Nephrite, Garnet, you guys have better not look. This is going to get rather messy," said Opal. "Opal....SHOWER!!"
	Thousands of opals sprayed from her fingers and landed on the youma. They burst once they touched the youma's skin and covered her with a highly corrosive acid. The youma screamed in pain as the acid ate through her until nothing was left but a dead flower.
	"My god what was that thing?" asked De careful not to go near it.
	"It doesn't matter. It was just a test to see if our experiment will work. Now it looks like it would as long as there's no one like you left!" said a female voice.
	They turned to see Ann standing in the hall.
	"YOU!!" said Garnet. "Give back my Alan you bitch!"
	"YOUR Alan? He's MY Alan human! Wait a sec, you're that slut that stole Alan from me!" She did a lame Freddy Kreuger impersonation, (If you've seen the R movie, you know what I'm talking about) and lunged at Ariel. Tilion stepped in front of her and slashed through Ann's knives with his sword. 
	"Alan belongs to me now human. Anyway looks like you've found a new boyfriend," Ann said sneering at Tilion.
	"What have you done with Alan?!" demanded Amber.
	"I've taken him where you'll never reach him. And when we're done with this planet, you won't have to worry about him any more."
	"And why is that?" asked Opal.
	"YOU'LL BE DEAD!! FOLLOW ME IF YOU DARE TO END YOUR PATHETIC LIVES SOONER!!!" With that, Ann dissappeared in a swirl of lily petals.
	"I'm going after her!" said Garnet. 
	"Sure you're up to it Ariel?" asked Salem.
	"I have to be. HE'S counting on me! All right guys let's get this teleport over with." 
	They formed another circle and the men got in the middle of it. The five girls closed their eyes and concentrated. Outside, a full moon came out of the clouds and a beam shone through a window enveloping them.
	"Sailor... TELEPORT!!" shouted Salem. The senshi and their boyfriends vanished in a multicolored light. Salem went to comfort Skie who was still hiding under the couch.
	"Good luck Jewel Senshi. Bring him back safe," he said looking to where they were.
	
On the Meteor:
	Alan woke to find himself floating in some kind of liquid. He looked for a way out of the liquid and found none. The liquid seemed to be encased in some kind of crystal. He punched the crystal but only managed to hurt his hand. He began to try again. Then he saw-
	"Ann! Ann let me out of here!" his voice was muted because of the crystal.
	"I can't darling, not yet. You're still not healed from your injuries. You should have listened to me, my love," she said touching the crystal where his cheek was.
	"Why are you doing this Ann? Can't you see my love for you has changed? I don't love you the same way as-"
	"As you do her? You definitely have to stay in there," she said. "That slut's poisoned your mind against me."
	"Ann, please, let me go," he begged.
	"I will, all in good time my darling," she said. He saw her eyes were glowing and pink mist was emanating from the flower in her hair. The mist formed into a man who had his hands around her waist. She walked away smiling a evil smile.
	"Ann! Ann!" he called over and over but, she refused to listen to his pleas. Ann, I'm so sorry. I should have checked on you.

	Meanwhile the Jewel Senshi have landed on the meteor just as it opened to reveal thousands upon thousands of flowers covering every inch of the surface.
	"Oh great more of those damn weeds!" said an extremely unhappy Onyx.
	"I don't care about those things all I want is my Alan back!" said Garnet.
	"Any ideas where he could be?" asked Nephrite.
	"Quiet guys! I'm trying to concentrate here!" said Onyx. She closed her eyes and tried to use what she nicknamed 'The Force' to find Alan. Very much like when she 'found' Jadeite.

	Alan? It's me Mara. Can you hear me? came a voice into his head. At first he thought he was hearing things. But when the voice repeated itself, he answered her back.
	Mara! How'd you find me?
	Never mind that. Are you ok? Ariel's goin' crazy from worrying.
	I'm fine, I guess. If you call floating in liquid, trapped inside a crystal ok.
	We'll get you outta there. I'm here with the senshi.
	Don't! Ann's gone insane! She'll kill you if you even try to free me!
	Don't worry! her voice faded into silence.
	Mara! Mara! Don't waste your lives like this! Mara! he called but she could no longer hear him. Damn! I've got to get out of this thing.

	Mara collapsed from using too much of her energy. Tilion caught her. "I'm ok. I was just hard for me to reach him. But I did it," she said leaning on Tilion's shoulder.
	"Is he ok? Is he alive? Where is he? Tell me Mara! Tell me now!" said Ariel grabbing hold of her collar.
	"I will as soon as you let go of me Ariel."
	"Sorry," she let go of Onyx's collar, sweatdropping.
	"Thanks. He's alive, but he's weak. That much I could tell. He said something about being trapped in a crystal. I felt his prescence coming from that direction," she pointed to an area they had not yet seen.
	In the middle of the field of flowers, stood what appeared to be a crystal.
	"Alan!" Garnet ran toward the crystal. Opal blocked her path and Moonstone and Amber held her back.
	"Don't it might be a trap," said Opal.
	"No need to worry about that. I'd never use dear Alan as a trap," came Ann's voice from nowhere.
	"Huh?" said Moonstone and spun around looking for the voice.
	Ann materialized in a swirl of lily petals.
	"I can't believe you'd come all the way up here. I guess you decided to die before your planet becomes a wonderful garden. Such a pity you or anyone else won't be there to see it." She snapped her fingers and hundreds of youma just like the one in Ariel's house grew from the flowers.
	"They're surrounding us. Get ready for a fight guys," said Diamond Knight.
	"Opal.... SHOWER!!" said Opal and spun her attack in an arc.
	"Onyx Beam... FIRE!!" she followed Opal's lead.
	"Moon Beam... BLAST!!" said Moonstone.
	Naru felt a strange new power flowing though her body. She held her arms out at her sides as she began her new attack. "Amber.... FOSSILIZATION!!" she brought her hands together and the youma facing her, were encased in amber. Very much like countless other plants and insects back home on Earth. "Whoa. Awesome," she managed to say once her jaw closed.
	"Garnet..." Garnet raised her hands above her hands and formed a heart with her cupped hands. "Heart..." she brought her pointer fingers together and formed a 'gun' with her hands. "BEAM!" A red beam of hearts shot from her 'gun' and she swun in an arc.
	The guys were holding their own with their swords and Diamond Knight's diamond roses.
	Soon almost all the youma were destroyed. Seeing that her flowers were dying, Ann made them sink back under the flowers.
	"All right! We got them!" yelled Moonstone.
	"Um... guys I'm getting a major bad feeling about this," said Onyx, shivering.
	As soon as she said that, a huge tidal wave of youma shot into the air in front of thiem and began to fall towards them, hoping to bury the senshi alive.
	"Everyone scatter!" shouted Nephrite, grabbing Amber and teleporting her to safety. Tilion and Raistlin followed suit and teleported out of there with Moonstone and Opal. Only Onyx, and Garnet were left to run for their lives.
	Barely escaping the tidal wave as it hit the ground, Garnet panted, desperately trying to catch her breath. Beside her Onyx lay amongst the flowers also out of breath.
	"I feel like I've run every single marathon in the world at once," said the raven haired senshi between gasps.
	The guys returned with their girlfriends moments later. "Is everyone all right," asked Tilion. The senshi nodded. "Good because it isn't over yet," he said. "De can you use your Moondust?"
	"I think so," she said.
	"I need you to make us invisible."
	"Why?"
	"Don't be such a ditz, De do it!" said Onyx.
	De began to cry, but Tilion quickly stopped her with a kiss on the cheek. "Please love, hurry before they attack again."
	She blushed then readied her power. "Moondust... Sparkle!!!!" thousands of iridescent confetti covered the senshi and their guardians. All except for the Diamond Knight who had his own way of turning himself invisible.
	"Here's the plan," said Tilion once they were no longer visible. "Half of us will free Alan and the other half stays here to draw her fire."
	"You think it'll work?" said Garnet.
	"Please, Arielle. You'll have to trust me."
	"All right, but I'm going to free Alan," she said determined to save her love.
	"I'll go with you," said Opal.
	"Count me in too," said Onyx.
	"I'm going too," came the Diamond Knight's voice.
	"I guess the rest of us stays here, ne?" said Amber.
	"Good luck," said Tilion.
	The others stood silently as the sound of footsteps faded away.

	Garnet's team reached the crystal with no problems. The sounds of a battle could be heard in the distance. "Oh Alan, what did she do to you?" said Garnet touching the crystal.
	At the sound of his girlfriend's voice, the young man inside looked up. "Ariel? Is that you? Where are you?" he called looking for her when he saw nothing.
	"I'm right here. De made us invisible," she said.
	"What do you mean invisible?"
	"There's no time, Garnet! We've got to get him out of there and fast!" said the Diamond Knight.
	"He's right," came Onyx's voice.
	"How do we get him out?" said Garnet.
	"How about we do what we did when we freed, Jed?" asked the Diamond Knight, seeing this was a similar situation.
	"Good idea!" said Onyx and stepped aside from the crystal. "You've better move away Ariel," she warned.
	"Huh?"
	"Um... you better move unless you want one of his roses in your body," said Moonstone.
	"Gotcha!" Garnet quickly stepped well away from the crystal and blinked as a flash of light passed by and there was a cracking sound from the crystal.
	"Whatever you guys did worked, but it's not enough. It only cracked this thing," said Alan.
	"Get ready Alan. I'll have you out in a jiff," called Garnet.
	The three senshi combined their beam attacks and the sheer force of the beams struck the crack and forced it wide open, causing the liquid to stream out and Alan to fall onto the flowers.
	"Alan are you all right?" Garnet ran to him and held onto him, now visible due to the liquid washing the confetti off.
	"I guess. I'll be fine," he said once he got to his feet.
	"Let's go, guys. We've got a weed to pull!" said Onyx, not wanting to waste time on romance.
	Nodding, Garnet reluctantly let go of her boyfriend and followed the other senshi towards where they left the other team.
	Alan chose to stay behind, knowing he could do nothing against his former lover. "Please be careful, Ariel," he whispered.
