Chapter 4
"Serena!" yelled Luna, trying frantically to catch up with her. "What now?" Serena said turning around to see her. "We have found out some more information on Hotaru's whereabouts. Our computer indicates that she was able to morph for a short period of time, but then the Dark Crystal unmorphed her. Then she was put into the Cave." "Is she ok?!?" "I don't know. Our computer all of a sudden shut down, as if the enemy did it." "I'll bet they did," Serena said with anger. * * * When Hotaru had been shoved into the Cave, she was surprised to find that it actually had light in it, although it came form an unknown source. When she saw her, Serene looked exactly like she did 1,000 years ago. She had the same beautiful blue eyes, and her short hair so blonde, it looked white. Serene still had her wonderful complexion, with freckles dotting her nose. "Serene! You haven't changed a bit!" Hotaru exclaimed. Serene's cheeks turned scarlet, and said, "You haven't changed much either." "Did you morph for a second?" Hotaru said, abruptly changing the subject. "Yeah. All of a sudden, I just - well, morphed." "Woah! You didn't say anything and you just turned into a Scout?" "Yeah." "Well, do you still have the crystal?" "No. It flashed before me, and POOF! I was in a funky costume." "Oh, you must mean the Sailor outfit." "Yeah." "Maybe, if we work together, we can get out of this cell using our powers!" "Yeah!" "Now to figure out what Scout you are." "It was - oh! now I remember! It was Moon Goddess." "Oh my gosh! So you're not a scout?" "I guess not." "I wonder why - But a goddess is soo much better than being a Scout. Trust me." "Why don't you try to morph, then I think I'll be able to." "Ok- Saturn Planet Power! Make UP!" A bright light filled the room as Serene's Crystal appeared. When the light died out, both she and Serene were morphed. Serene was dressed in a beautiful white dress that trailed behind her. There was a silver chain that encircled her head, and a shining silver Crystal hung from it in the center of her forehead. Then all of a sudden, there was a flash of light, and they were their normal selves again. "I got it!" shouted Serene, holding something in her hand. "What is it?" Hotaru inquired curiously. "It's my Crystal!" * * * Meanwhile, it was dark up on the earth's surface. While Rini slept, a mysterious cloaked man came to her in her dreams. The man was accompanied by a slender woman with dark hair and piercing eyes. He said, "Rini. If you EVER want to see your friend again, meet me tomorrow night in the park." Then she heard the woman laughing deviously, and when she awoke, she felt a chill run down her spine. She looked at the clock. Seeing that it was midnight, she fell back asleep thinking that her previous dream was just a nightmare. She again dreamed of the man and the lady. This time, it was the woman who spoke. She said, "And come alone. Or your friend dies! Ha ha ha ha!" "Rini! Rini!" Serena shouted. "C'mon! You're gonna be mega late for school!" "Huh? What?" Rini exclaimed. "You're already 15 minutes late for school! Hurry up and get dressed!!" * * * "Venus Crystal Power, MAKE UP!" Mina said, and she and the rest of the Scouts were off. "AAAHHHHHH!!! HELP!!" someone shouted in the distance. "I'm getting strange vibes from the the rooftop up there," Mercury said after thoroughly scanning the area. They ran up to the roof, and found a little boy being held up by his throat by a Mist Warrior. "Put him down you evil being!" shouted Sailor Moon. "You can't torture the next generation! They're our hope for the future! We'll punish you in the name of the Love and Justice!" "Ha! A bunch of fancy words you got there, moon girl. But can you back them up with actions?" The boy turned into a Mist Warrior, then disappeared. The Mist Warrior that was still there started an extensive attack on the scouts. "Space Sword BLASTER!" shouted Sailor Uranus, but the thing just kept absorbing the power. "Venus Love and Beauty SHOCK!!!" "Is that the best you can do?" the mists suddenly changed into a young woman, and Sailor Uranus and Sailor Venus were suddenly entangled with a vine. Then, the woman and the captured Scouts disappeared. "Venus! Uranus! NOOOO!" shouted Sailor Moon, crying. "Why do they do this? First Serene, then Saturn, and now Venus and Uranus! NOOOOO!" "It's ok, Princess. We'll get them back. I know we will," said Jupiter, putting a hand on her shoulder. Serena breathed deeply, stopped crying, and smiled. "You're right. We'll get them back."
