Sailor Moon Z: Z is for Zodiac
Chapter 1: The new Sailor and Enemy
By Sailor Zodiac
Disclaimer: I don't own Sailor Moon or any of its characters but Sailor Zodiac and her attacks, Princess Solana, and Ryoko and her crew are mine!
AN: This is taking place about one year after stars. The inners are all 17(including Zodiac), outers 19, and Darien is 21. They also go to Crossroads Junior high. Sorry, I've only seen the dubbed version! Oh everyone is a senior in high school and it's like American high school. Raye goes to the same school in my story.
Bold words are thoughts and Italic words are places. Underlined is the voice in her head. Now on with the story!


Chapter 1: The New Sailor and Enemy

Ryoko woke up. She was plenty dazed after a millennia of sleep. "I will take revenge for you Beryl," she vowed, " you would and will be proud of me."
~Sable Creek High, USA~ End of March
Lana Carter sat at her desk. She was bored with Mr. K. muttering on about on lucky student who gets to go to Japan to stay there with a family. I'd love one, Lana thought to herself.
Lana was an orphan. They let her live alone in an apartment not far from school because she had high marks. "Lana?" asked her teacher, "would you like to go to Japan?"
"Yes!" she screamed, "I mean hai sensei." (yes teacher)
She couldn't contain herself. She couldn't wait to tell Mrs. B. at the complex. Mrs. B. would be thrilled.
On her last night before she left she sat outside, gazing at the stars. "They're so beautiful," she whispered.
Suddenly what looked like a shooting star came and landed at her feet. It was a stick with a white Z in a black crystal on what looked like a stick of some sorts.
Take it.
Okay.
This is the stick you will use to become Sailor Zodiac. Just say Zodiac Star Power.
"ZODIAC STAR POWER!"
The ATC song "Around the World (La La La La La) was in the background. Her gymnast-thingy cane up with a navy blue kerchief. She lifted one hand above her head and got a glove, then the same for the other hand. She kicked one foot in front of her can got boots that were emerald green on the tips and navy blue on the rest (imagine Sailor moon's boots). She twirled around and got a navy blue skirt with an emerald green bow. As she twirled she got a tiara with a Z on it. Then she put her right hand by her chin and out to the side. whew lot to type!
You must find the Moon Princess she will tell you who you really are. I will always be with you.
Lana couldn't believe she was a Sailor Scout. She ran back inside and packer her things.
Meanwhile in Tokyo
"When is she coming?" asked Serena.
"Tomorrow," answered Serena's mom, "I hope she's nice."
"Me too!" added Serena.
One student was selected to host an exchange student from America. Serena got picked. Her friend gave her advice.
"Be nice to her," told Mina.
"Remember she's not used to some things," spoke Amy.
"Don't pig out on her Meatball head!" teased Raye.
"Have fun and show her around," said Lita.
Serena couldn't wait. Tomorrow after school the senior would pick up Miss Carter in her BMW Z3 (my fav car!) and take her home. She was too excited.
Next day Tokyo International Airport
Lana looked for the sign. It seemed the person forgot. The she saw a 5'7 blond with a sign that said "Miss Carter"
"Hi!" she spoke, "I'm Lana Carter."
"Name's Serena Tsukino," replied Serena. "Ready to go?"
"Yup!"
Serena like her already. She was the same height as she was, but she had her shoulder length hair back in a ponytail. You could've said they were twins!
Serena pulled into the driveway. "Here we are!" she shouted. "We'll go in this way."
Serena's parents and Sammy greeted Lana. She was led up to a navy blue room. "Mom heard you liked navy so dad painted it," said Serena.
Lana noticed a cat walking by. "Who is this?"
"Oh that's Luna. She's my cat."
I wonder why there's a crescent moon on her forehead, thought Lana.
Crossroads High, next day.
"Students this is Lana Carter, our American exchange student. Please make her feel welcome,' bellowed Mr. J. what's up with me and initialing teacher's last names? Oh well
Lana smiled at found an empty desk next to Serena. She learned about Japan's history. Just as boring as U.S. history, she thought.
At lunch Serena introduced her to her friends Amy, Lita, Mina, and Raye. "Nice to meet you!" they chorused.
The day dragged on and on until after school Serena and the gang with Lana went to the Crown Game Center.
"Andrew meet Lana," told Serena.
"Hi."
"Hi," Lana replied.
Meanwhile at Ryoko's Hideout near Venus
"It's time to finish what you started Beryl," said Ryoko, "and I will defeat the sailors. Kione, send something to Earth.
Kione looked around for something to send."Ah, my new and more powerful youma. Destroy the sailors! Bring back the energy to revive Beryl and to find the crystal!"
"Yes, miss Kione," it replied.
So the youma went in a portal and went to Tokyo.
Next day Tokyo Park
Lana, Serena, and her friends were all enjoying ice cream. Serena was finishing her 5th. "Geez, meatball head you're a pig!" said Raye.
"Shut up!" yelled Serena.
"AAAAAAAHH!" someone screamed.
"Uh, Lana we got to go. Bye!" muttered Serena.
Lana transform! Defeat it!
"K," she responded. "ZODIAC STAR POWER!"
Where Lana once stood, there was Sailor Zodiac. Z ran to the park to mind 9 scouts and 1 guy in a tux lying around. Make your entrance.
"Hold it right there!" shouted a voice.
"Who's there?" asked the youma. The scouts and tux turned around and saw a girl in a fuku like theirs except different.
"I am Sailor Zodiac, and on behalf of the stars and constellations, I will punish evil! That means you!"
"Sailor who?" asked Uranus.
"I call on the power of Cancer. Cancer Moonbeam!"
The sign of cancer shone on her forehead. Her hands were above her head and as she brings them down a silver light shot out.
The youma disintegrated. Suddenly a lady with light blue hair appeared. "I am Ryoko. You meddling sailors must quit now so I can find the Star crystal and princess without a struggle. Until we meet again." She vanished.
Sailor Zodiac started to leave. "Wait," said Moon, "who are you?'
"Just another Sailor fighting for justice," she replied.
She left too. "Girls and Tux meeting, my temple at 4 p.m. Don't be later," told Mars.
