The man lunged out, baring his teeth and hissing, "It's your
time, Princess!" He held up the knife, letting the sun glisten upon
it's sharp edge. He relished the terrified silent scream etched upon
her face.

She tried to run. Really, she did, but all she could do was
stand there,petrified. 'Run you fool, the sunarian is going to kill
you! Run damn you, run!!' But she stood there, scared stiff, unable
to run or hide.

The flowers she had been holding tightly in her hand where
shakily dropped, not taken notice by anyone, but the man, who took it
as a cue.

Lunging out again, he stabbed the knife out at her. She
dodged it, but it was a second to late. The silent scream she had
been holding in came out. She felt her stomach tighten in pain and
she couldn't bear to look down to see what really happened. The man
smirked.

"Not so powerful now princess, eh?" He raised the bloody
knife again.

'That's my blood' she thought, in shock, while gazing up at
the knife. Slowly, she felt blackness wrap around her and she
blinked excessively, as if to bring back the light. Faintly outlined,
she saw the man. One last desperate thought entered her mind.... 'I
can heal myself....' She was unaware that she was glowing faintly,
not strong enough for any senshi to feel or for her crescent moon to
activate.

The man heard many footsteps coming closer, closer to where
he was. Scowling at Serenity, he ran into a nearby portal, which
suddenly appeared, and was whisked back to the sun.
(AN: yes folks, in my story the sun is a place you can live on)

"Look over here!" Nephrite cried. In a second, all his
friends were next to him, peering down at the fallen angel. Zoicite
kneeled down and checked her pulse. Her skin was so pale to his, yet
"She's alive." whispered Zoicite.

"Quick, let's take her to that small shack, you know, the one
we used if it rained out here." Endymion picked her up,"God, she's
light!"
They quickly rushed her over to the nearby shack. As they
were running, Jedite noticed something.

"Look! She's glowing!!"

"It's really faint... I see it!" exclaimed Kunzcite.

"Weird..." murmured Endymion. As he looked down at her, his
heart soared. She was so beautiful and delicate. She must be an
angel, he concluded. A huge bubbling anger suddenly rose in him.
Who ever hurt her, he swore, was going to pay.

********

"Your sure it's her." demanded Makoto, fists clenched at the
thought Serenity was gone.

"Positive." Minako answered, wiping nervous sweat from her
forehead. Ami reflected worry off her blue eyes. She turned
her gaze to Rei. She was surprised. Usually, Rei would be name
calling Serenity right now and taking action, but she was unusually
quiet.

"Rei-chan, what is it..." Ami started but trailed off.

"I shouldn't have agreed" Rei muttered as she started pacing.
"It's all my fault"

"What?" Minako questioned.

"I promised" Rei protested, talking more to herself than
anyone.

Makoto rushed over and grabbed Rei by the shoulders. "Rei,
for the princess, the future of this kingdom and the whole galaxy and
for our best friend, where is Sere!!"

Minako stood next to Ami in silence. This was unlike Rei.

Taking a deep breath, Rei gazed sorrowfully past Makoto, her
eyes focusing on the planet ahead and simply answered, "She went to
earth."

Ami dropped her computer. Makoto let her arms swing down in
defeat. Minako let her mouth drop.

"WHAT!" Everyone shouted at once.

As if a weight lifted off her shoulders by telling her friends, Rei
took ahold of the situation. "Ami," Rei stepped forward, "do you know
where the hell she could be on earth?"

Recovering quickly, Ami picked up her computer and with her hands
typing shakily, she could come to only one conclusion.

"Earth is a beautiful planet full of trees and flowers, etc.,
am I correct?" When she got no response, she continued "That means,
she could be anywhere. That was the only reason she went, as I know
I am right and so, she could be anywhere!"

"Then let's start with the king and queen" stated Minako,
taking charge. "They can help us and keep it a secret. I've heard
it isn't going well with Queen Serenity over on the sun, so it could
be awhile before she comes back. We'd better get started!"

VENUS CRYSTAL POWER!
MARS CRYSTAL POWER!
JUPITER CRYSTAL POWER!
MERCURY CRYSTAL POWER!

"Excuse me, but I would like to know what your doing," Luna
approached with dignity

"Serenity went to earth" summarized Mercury.

"WHAT!" Luna screeched and the senshi didn't doubt the whole
moon heard it.

"Luna, calm down." Mercury soothed, her hand safely covering
Luna's mouth "We can find her, don't worry. But we need your help"

Luna's sharp cat eyes met hers. "You bet I'm helping"

"I need you to contact the outer senshi, we may need their
help later on. With those sunarians out there, this isn't just a
protecting princess matter, this is a galaxy matter. She's needed at
the throne and their loyalty pledged to her is needed. You also,
can not tell anyone that she is gone. Period. Nobody. Luna, since
you haven't taught us the Sailor Teleport yet, we need you to do that
incantation in the ancient moon language so we can teleport to earth."

Luna jumped out of Mercury's arms and next to the senshi
"Everyone, get back. And get ready for some real action." Luna
started rubbing her paws together and grinned devilishly.

At this, the senshi cowered behind a nearby tree.

She started swirling her paw and murmured not understandable
words at once. After a minute, she stopped and their was what looked
like a whirlpool in the ground.

The senshi walked into the whirling circle and joined hands.

"Focus on your true self. Your power. Your planet. Whenever
you need to do the Sailor Teleport, just do what you are doing now.
You won't need me. Now, call you planet's power!"

Closing their eyes, they concentrated on the energy deep
inside each of them. They concentrated on their planets inner
strength, it's inner feeling. Each glowing their respected colors,
they glowed spectacular colors, all joining in the center and making
what looked like the northern lights. There colors also went up into
the sky, much like a beacon.

"Sailor Teleport!" Luna cried this a moment to late, for an
unexpected guest suddenly popped right in front of her right after she
said those magical words.

"What is going on here!" Artemis shouted.

The senshi opened their eyes in surprise, also breaking their
concentration. Their beams of light wavered, but still held, though
by a thread. They felt something rip in their bodies, inside their
inner soul, making them cry out in pain.

"NO!" Luna cried, tearing past Artemis. This wasn't supposed
to happen! Tears welled up in her huge eyes. Artemis gasped at the
beautiful senshi, now in pain "Princesses!!"

The senshi disappeared in a beam of light. Their screams
echoed threw the air.

*************************

The generals and prince quickly set her on the one of the
beds, and drew around her, anxiously, while Zoicite got a better look
at her, health wise.

"She doesn't look that good" he murmured, he reached to
inspect her huge cut, but was interrupted.

The faint silver glow she had been giving off, suddenly shot a
beam into the air and engulfed everything in the room with a blinding
silver light.

**************************

Near the moon

*************************

The beam of silver light shot high up, into the morning sky.

The light shot directly through a multicolored ball of light
containing four unconscious senshi soaring dangerously at high speeds.
They were caught in the familiar light and disappeared.

Next day, newspapers on earth would mention this mysterious
occurrence.

**************************

When the light cleared, the generals (and prince) looked at
each other in amazement.

"What the hell!" Jedite murmured. Then, he reached out to
touch the unusual maiden which made his day far from normal.

WHACK!! "Go away Luna," she muttered hitting Jedite, "It isn't
noon yet."

Endymion and Nephrite laughed at Jedite, while Zoicite and
Kunzcite held a hand over their mouth, to hide a smile.

"A little outgoing with the maiden, aren't we, Jed?" Endymion
heartily punched Jedite in the shoulder.

"Haha" laughed Jedite sarcastically, and glared at his
friends. Then he turned back to nursing his slowly bruising finger.

Zoicite peered at her, but wouldn't examine her any further,
seeing what happened to Jedite. "Well, she's alive."

They all watched her as she yawned. And then how she rubbed
her eyes. Groggily, her eyes came into focus. She gazed at them for
a moment.

"HAHA, I get it," she muttered. "This is what I get for the
water bucket joke. HAHA, I'm dying of laughter."

"Excuse me, miss-" But Kunzcite was cut off.

"Okay,okay..."she interrupted, "I deserved this one.......but
I didn't fall it!!! You can't go bragging to Luna or Artemis about
this one!!" She shook her finger in front of their faces.

She received puzzled looks from them. She examined them
further. "Oooohhhhhhh, it looks like you took acting class too!
Well, I'm still not falling for it, not ONE bit!"

She swung her legs on to the side of the bed, peered at their
faces, one by one. 'cute, cute, cute, pretty cute, HOT!! WAY HOT!!.
Geez, my friends have good tastes in men!!'

"You've got me. I give up, how'd ya do it??? How much did
Ami-chan have to help you guys with this one, huh? Spill it, how
did you do it??"

"One question, if I may miss" Kunzcite firmly said.

"Sure, sure I'll play along. What?"

"Who the hell is Ami-chan and who the hell are you?" Kunzcite
instantly regretted his tone of voice, but this was unnerving. He had
not the slightest idea of what she was talking about.

Her smile looked like it was falling a bit on the edges.
"Okay, you guys, this is getting old. Just please tell me how you
did it. I promise I won't play it back on you!" Her eyes looked
pleadingly at them.

She felt immediate warmth flow into her shoulder as a hand
rested on it. She turned her gaze to the piercing blue eyes of the
man before her. 'Down girl' she told herself. 'It's just Minako or
Rei in disguise.' But her heart didn't trust her eyes, as she felt
and heard it's thudding in the room.

The man--or Endymion, but she doesn't know that--looked at
the perplexed creature before him. She seemed to be pleading them,
for a reasonable answer, perhaps. Her sapphire eyes were watery with
confusion. In his eyes, they became perfect pools of water, gazing
beautifully at him.

She saw his eyes soften considerably, and she couldn't help
but gaze at his ruffled hair, the sensual curve of his cheekbones,
and especially the--

"We need an explanation now." She drove her hungry eyes
from the man in front of her to the one who rudely interrupted her.
He stood tall in front of her, as if she should be respecting him.
"My name is General Kunzcite. Now, what is yours?"

Slowly, it dawned on the princess. "General Kunzcite of
what?" she asked slowly, looking at him desperately in the eye.

"It's the trauma of the past experience" whispered Zoicite to
Jedite, and they nodded in agreement.

"General Kunzcite, of the planet, Earth." Kunzcite looked at
her strangely as her mouth slowly dropped.

This was bad... very bad. She was banned from earth and she
ended up meeting the high ranking general of earth! Who knows who
these other people are???!!

"Who are you?" demanded Kunzcite, calmly, but with authority
in his voice. She could tell he was used to being in charge. She
opened her mouth, to say her name, but she quickly clamped it shut.
She had to get out of here. Everything was going wrong.

"I-I c-can't tell," she squeaked,"I'm not supposed to be here!"
She jumped up, but only got one step, as Endymion grabbed her wrist.

"You go back and sit down! You're hurt!!" A puzzled look
appeared on her face. Burrowing her brow, she glanced at herself.
Realization hit her. The sunarian. The knife. What had they seen
when she healed herself???? She stumbled back, wobbling faintly at
her knees, to the bed. "W-what did you just see a few minutes ago?"

"Who are you." Kunzcite repeated.

'She's visibly shaking now' Endymion studied her. Reaching
his hand out, he rested his hand on her hand. "You have nothing to
be afraid of." he comforted. She sharply drew her gaze into his
steady eyes. "We won't hurt you." Slowly, her body relaxed a bit,
and her eyes seemed to glow in the teeniest. 'I trust you.' That is
what she was saying to him, with those eyes. 'Just you.'

"You can call my Sere" Her eyes shone more, and Endymion
knew she was telling the truth. Just by her beautiful eyes.
