Chapter three

While all this was going on, in a place far below the surface of the ground Queen Mistina sat, watching and monitoring Serena's every move. "Soon she will be mine," she exclaimed, and let out an evil cackle. The real sailor scouts watched from where they were hung by chains to the walls of Mistina's evil lair. They knew that if they didn't escape soon then Sailor moon and the world would be in danger. Suddenly Mars had an idea.

"Be very quiet until Mistina goes out of the room and then I'll tell you the plan," she whispered to the others. Just then Mistina stretched out of her throne and walked out of the room, her heels clacking and echoing in the hollow room.

As soon as they were sure that Mistina had gone, the scouts put their plan into action and were soon free of the chains that bound them. Suddenly there was the sound of feet, coming closer to them. "I think we'd better go, don't you?" Mercury yelled. All the other scouts agreed.

"Mercury, Star Power!" Ami yelled

. "Mars, star power!" Rei screamed.

"Jupiter, star power!" Lita shouted.

"Venus, star power!" Mina exclaimed.

All the scouts began to glow with a coloured light. Mercury was an aquatic blue, Mars a beautiful red, Jupiter was forest green and Venus a golden yellow. All the colours began to swirl around and glisten and gleam like a sky full of stars. The scouts began to flash and finally disappeared as Queen Mistina threw open the door.

"I knew they'd try to escape, but they will never escape from my wrath. Now that I have power over her, I am completely in control of her." Queen Mistina laughed and there was a tone in her voice that could send chills down the spine of the bravest warrior. She sat on her throne and watched the four scouts in her mystic porthole.

She knew that the silly little Sailor Scouts would fall into her trap. All she had to do now was wait. Mistina smiled to herself, soon no one would be able to stop her.
