"Man I wish I knew where I was," Superior Moon whispered to herself walking through a murky looking forest. There were slimy worm like creatures all around her and she already had to run away from a three headed warthog thing with teeth larger than her leg. Her landing had been rough and her fuku was torn, she was cold and alone and was regretting she ever thought about coming there alone. She suddenly heard voices. "Crap! Some one's already found me," She whispered running through the tangled mess of lifeless trees and brush. She came to a creaky wooden bridge and decided to hide underneath it.
*~* It always works in the movies *~* She thought.
"She came this way!" A soldier said running across the bridge. He was followed by a dozen other soldiers. Serena mentally blew out a sigh of relief. Suddenly she felt something wrapping around her leg. She looked down to see three octopus like things wrapping slowly around her legs. *~* EEWWWWWW!!!*~* she reached into her lunar space pocket and pulled out her sceptre. She started prying the things off her legs. She got the first one off of her boot. But where it was there was now a hole in her boot. *~* Oh man! These things are acidic! If they get stuck to my skin, there's no way I'll get them off! *~* She was frantically prying them off, but now there were many more climbing up her boots. *~* Great, killed by baby octopuses, what a way to go *~* she thought to herself.
Suddenly the octopuses dropped dead. Serena looked down to see they had turned to stone and had fallen off. Not understanding how this happened but trying not to question why either she scrambled out from underneath the bridge up onto the trail above. She was dusting off her fuku when she noticed some one on the path ahead of her.
"Sailor Moon," A manly voice said. The man was cloaked with a dark black robe. He had a mage's hat on that covered his identity. He was about as tall as Darien and not an inch of his true form could be seen. "Sailor Pluto has informed me of your arrival. I will hide you from the Senate for as long as I can but that is all I can do. My name is Andaries now if you'll follow me I will take you into the sacred village." He didn't even wait for an answer before he turned around and went further up the path. Sailor Moon had no choice but to follow him.
"How do you know Sailor Pluto?" She questioned.
"She's my wife," he answered. This caused Sailor Moon to stop in her tracks.
"Wife?!?"
"Not really, I'm a friend of Selena's and thus I know her via her." He said with a chuckle. There was something about his sense of humor that got Serena thinking. She shrugged it off as she walked along with him.
In another part of the world….
The other scouts arrived in perfect formation. They landed in the clearing of a forest, similar to the one Serena landed in.
"Girls, Darius you know what to do!" Dark Moon said walking to one edge of the clearing. The other dark Scouts and Tuxedo Dark Moon did the same. They raised their hands to the air and chanted a spell that even Mars couldn't recognize and suddenly a type of force field produced.
"This is to protect you from the dangers you will have no defense over. This will not protect you from the evil powers of the Senate. We will be flying to a sacred village in the far east. You can not fly, as you know so you must be on the look out for all dangers. Do not out step the lines of the field, for once you leave your immunity is lost and you can not enter again," Dark Mars said.
"What about Serena, is she still alive?" Mercury asked sadly.
"Of course she is! You can tell because Rini is still here. If Serena is killed than Rini would die as well. And when Serena is killed there is no way to get the throne back and there will be no way for you to get back to your planet, for there will be no power of the moon to guide you! So protect Rini at all costs, when we find Serena we will bring her back to you all!" Dark Mercury answered. The Dark Sailors took flight then and flew off over the hills. Darius stayed behind to help them out.
"She'll be fine, she's with a friend of yours," he reaussured them. "The only entrance points accessible from other dimensions are this one and a similar one, and since we couldn't sense Sailor Moon's energy at this one she went threw the other one. And Andaries was guarding that one." Darius said with a laugh.
"Who's Andaries?" Venus asked.
"Oh, I guess you don't remember. On the moon kingdom there was a magician who worked in the uppermost tower of the castle. He's the one who made the moon sceptres and planetary sticks and everything else. I remember Endymion and him were the bestest of friends. And most of you girls fawned all over him. He was killed when Beryl attacked the kingdom, but he was reborn in the same time frame as you. Do you remember who he is now?" Darius asked with a laugh.
"You don't mean…!" Venus said wide-eyed.
"Yes, as we speak, Serena is most likely with Andrew."
