Chapter 9: Sleeping

*~*~*~*

"What?!" Raven stared wide-eyed at Trista, "Why?"

"Because you must." Trista replied calmly, taking a sip of the tea that had been set out for her before she even arrived.

"But…" Raven started.

"What have I told you about talking back to your elders?" Sakura rebuked the young girl the way she had done hundreds of times before.

"Yes, ma'am." She stood up and bowed to the two other people in the room, "I'll be in my room. This is the same house as in the future, right?"

"Yes." Sakura hid a snicker from her friend.

When Raven had left the room Trista turned to Sakura, "Was she surprised that you weren't as old as in the future?"

"She didn't seem to be. I was truly expecting it though." Sakura fixed her gaze on Trista, "Why won't you let her go back to her own time?"

"She will be needed to save her siblings." Trista replied solemnly.

"Speaking of her siblings, one's attacking now!" Sakura stood up and headed to the door, "Oh, and if the rest of the scouts do fine without my help this time, you will let me go home." She left.

"Sorry, but you won't be going back, Sakura. You are now needed to take care of your charges." Trista sighed after the door slammed shut.

*~*~*~*

It was Bob attacking this time, and he didn't look happy at all. "You all will pay for what you did to Raven!!! Enduh, kill them all!!!"

Outer Moon heard the yelling and sped up on her way. When Sailor Outer Moon reached the fighting, the rest of the scouts were already there. Everyone was there…except…Sailor Moon!

"Where in the world is Sailor Moon?!?" Outer Moon whispered to herself.

Just then, Sailor Moon appeared on the scene, although she didn't look as if she were ready to fight.

"What the…" Outer Moon whispered to herself on her perch.

"What's wrong with you?" Sailor Mars looked at the scout leader worriedly.

"I…I…don't know…" She almost fell over. As she stumbled, a small dart fell free of her boot.

Sailor Mars caught the stumbling Sailor Moon while telling the others to hold the monster back. She laid Sailor Moon on the ground and grabbed the small dart she had seen fall and held onto it.

"Damn it!" Sailor Outer Moon had watched the entire scene from the trees, "Outer Moon Death Sphere!" She fired her attack, turning the attacking monster into dust.

"NO!!!" Bob screamed and disappeared.

The scouts looked around for Outer Moon, they knew she was there. "Where are you?" Venus called out.

Outer Moon jumped down from where she had been standing, walked over to a sleeping Sailor Moon and kneeled over her. "She isn't dead. She's just out." She then started looking for the dart.

"This fell when she stumbled." Mars held up the miniature dart.

Sailor Mercury took the dart and scanned it with her mini-computer. "It had a sleeping mixture in it. From the residue, I can tell it was a very powerful mixture, and this small tube could put ten men to sleep for twelve hours. And it's empty."

"That means she's going to be out for a long time…"Jupiter looked down at the sleeping girl, "What do we do with her?"

"Would her parents mind if she stayed at a friends' house until she woke up?" Sailor Outer Moon looked at the others, "Because then she could stay at my place for the night and that way no one has to worry about her cover being blown."

The other girls just sighed in resignation and Jupiter carried Sailor Moon to Sakura's house and up to the room she would be sleeping in until she woke up. The other scouts had detransformed before they left the place of the fight and had to carry Sailor Moon the back ways to Sakura's house so that they wouldn't be seen.

"What happened?" Raven held open the door for Lita.

"Sleeping dart." Amy answered, smiling at Raven.

"She'll be staying here until the sleeping mixture wears off and she wakes up." Sakura whispered into Raven's ear, "I'm sorry."

*~*~*~*

"What happened today, Bob?" Magnolia was making fun of her brother's failure.

"I…wasn't really thinking about what I was doing." He looked up from the book he was reading.

"You know what I heard today?" Magnolia smiled innocently.

"What? That you're being kicked off the team because of your incessant blabbering?" Bob snapped.

"No." Her smile grew, "I heard that you were being kicked off the team because of your failure. "Next time you go out, She won't let you come back…making it so that Sailor Witches get you!" She started off, laughing.

*~*~*~*

"Trista!!!" Sakura had called up Trista.

"What?! Do you know what time it is?!" Trista wasn't happy being woken up at 2:30 in the morning.

"Are you the one who hit Serena with the tranquilizer?" Sakura's voice sounded pissed, "Because if you are…"

"No. I didn't hit her with a tranq dart." Trista sounded exasperated, 'Although I did have her hit, I'm not the one who hit her…'

"Fine then," Sakura knew all too well Trista's tricks, "Who did you have hit her?"

"Uh…what do you mean?" Trista tried to sound innocent.

"Don't play your games with me! I know you had her hit with a tranq so that I wouldn't be able to leave!" Sakura punched the wall, "Who was it?" She was suddenly disturbingly calm.

"Amara…" Trista answered slowly.

"Thank you." Sakura hung up.

*~*~*~*

"Wha…?" A groggy Sailor Moon sat up in the bed she was in. She looked around and saw that it was near the middle of the day. The sun shone in from the window, illuminating the floor at the foot of the bed.

"You're awake." Raven was bringing in some food, "Sakura sent this up for you." Raven placed the tray of food on a table next to the bed.

"Where am I?" Sailor Moon looked at Raven.

"You're in one of the rooms in the house of Sakura Kinomoto." Raven said.

"What? Why?" Sailor Moon didn't remember what had happened the day before.

"I'll go get Sakura for you, she'll be able to answer your questions.

Raven left and a few minutes later, after Sailor Moon had detransformed to Serena and had cleared the food off the tray, Sakura appeared in the room.

"Do you want some more food?" Sakura remembered Serena's appetite.

"No thank you. That was good. Thank you." Serena smiled.

"Now, Raven told me that you are bubbling over with questions, once again." Sakura found a seat, "So…what do you want to know?"

"What happened yesterday, why I'm here, how long have I been here, how did I get here, do my parents know that I'm here, and does anyone else know that I'm Sailor Moon – I woke up in the scout outfit." Serena listed the more important questions she had.

"You were hit my a tranq dart on your way to the fight by Amara. You're here because I don't have anyone who doesn't know about you living with me. You've been here for three days now. Lita carried you from the fight. Your parents think you're here getting help with your homework for the weekend, luckily it is a three day weekend. And no one else knows about you being Sailor Moon other then the people who already knew." Sakura answered the questions as straight forward as possible.
