Chapter 6

As the scouts went home that night, none of them could think of anything else but how to get Serena to forgive them and become their friend again.

Raye spend most of the night meditating, in front of the great fire. She, like Lita and Amara, had tried to come up with a plan for getting her to come to the temple, but with out any luck. She thought back to what Ami and Lita had said when they showed up at the temple.

Raye let out a, "Sighed," and looked into the fire, concentrating. The images she saw were horrifying. A land covered in darkness and naked trees sticking up from the ground. Rei gasped mentally, as monsters, more ugly and viciously looking then any youma she had ever seen before, where standing in a throne room. 9 men where kneeling in front of a shadow. None of them resembled the four sisters or Rubeus. She could not make out what they where saying. But it was clearly that they where talking.

"I want that Moon Princess dead!!!" A voice roared suddenly. "She will pay for her mother defiance!!" A figure yelled. Raye gasped loudly, causing the shadows to turn around, making her believe that they could see her.

"I see we have a visitor." The voice hissed. Raye felt her heart stop in mid-beat, fear clearly evident in her eyes.

Raye opened her eyes, only to find herself still being in her "dream" and two shadows still advancing on her. She backed up slowly, searching for her wand but found nothing.

"Noooooo!!!" she screamed in her mind, "where is my wand?!?!" she was starting to panic.

"You are dead now little girl." one of the voices said, "You should not have come here."

Raye was desperately looking for a way out, but fear was slowly eating her. She hoped to god that this was only a dream, and that she would wake up soon.

~Please… someone help!!~ Raye screamed in her mind. One of the shadows grabbed Raye by the throat and lifted her of the ground.

"Please let me go," she pleaded, tearfully.

"Not a chance." The shadow hissed.

"You and your little friends will die! And there is nothing you can do about it. You're betrayal to your princess will be your doom! HAHAHAHAHAHA" The other shadow laughed as he ran his cold sharp finger nails down her checks, making a little cut.

"Sweet dreams, sailor Mars." The shadows hissed as a bright light appeared, completely blinding Rei.

Raye gasped, "How did you know that?!?" When the light faded, Raye was sitting in front of the temple fire. The flames where burning quietly. She though back to what the shadows had said about their betrayal towards Serena. Tears started to fall down her checks. "Serena." She whispered and curled into a ball in front of the fire, crying herself to sleep.

All the scouts had similar dreams that night, and all of them involved the shadows. Hotaru and Trista woke up drenched in sweat. Trista got up and went down the kitchen to make herself a cup of strong tea. Her brain where screaming at her to go to the princess and ask for her forgiveness. She sat down, thinking about who the new warriors where and how they knew about the Moon Princess. The last one was easy, though. It was clearly they where from the Silver Millennium.

The next morning; as the outer scouts where having breakfast, none of them said much and the lack of sleep where clearly evident on their faces. Hotaru didn't eat much that morning and when Rini came so they could walk to school together, she sneered at Rini and said that she wanted to walk alone. The three other scouts didn't do anything else but look at Rini, not even smiling or saying good morning to her.

"Fine, be that way," Rini yelled, "Who says I want to be friends with a traitor anyway!? For you're information, I don't!" She turned around and stomped away.

"..." Hotaru looked at her blankly as her eyes started to cry. She broke down, crying hysterically as Rini rounded the corner and disappeared down the street. Michiru pulled Hotaru in her arms to comfort her.

For Ami and Lita, things were not any better. Everyone was starting to ignore them more then ever, since they weren't Serena's friends anymore. They felt miserable.

On the Dark moon:

Prince Diamond looked at the image of Neo-Queen Serenity. Soon my precious Serenity, soon you shall be all mine and there is nothing that Earth prince Endymion can do about it. Diamond thought to himself, as he smiled evilly.

"General Alexandrite! Come forth!" Diamond yelled out.

"My prince," The general said bowing, "what are your biddings?"

"I want you to capture the Princess of the moon and bring her here, unharmed."

"Yes, my prince. But isn't she protected by the sailor scouts of the 20th century?"

"Unfortunately, yes." Diamond replied, "But if we capture the moon princess, the future is ours."

"I will see it done, my prince."

"Good. And do not fail me as that imbecile, Rubeus and those sisters of his. They have coasted of precious time and effort. My patience with them is running low. GO!" Diamond yelled. Alexandrite disappeared.

Tokyo Park:

Alexandrite appeared in the air over Tokyo Park, giving him a clear view and the opportunity to get a good look at the terrain. Smiling wickedly, he called forth five droids.

"Good evening, ladies." He said, turning to look at them.

"Good evening, General Alexandrite." They said.

"Ladies, we have a little task at hand. We are going to capture the princess of the moon and bring her back to Prince Diamond." Alexandrite said.

"Hold it right there creeps!" Sailor Venus yelled as she and the other scouts appeared. Alexandrite smirked.

"You are going down!" Sailor Uranus yelled.

"How amusing," Alexandrite said, "8 sailor twerps and a man who thinks he's a penguin. Now I must laugh."

Sailor Mars gritted her teeth.

"Sparkling Wide Pressure!!" Sailor Jupiter yelled. Her attack didn't even bring harm to the Nega-general.

"I have a bad feeling about this." Neptune said.

"I know what you mean." Venus said.

"I think we are in trouble this time." Pluto added and looked around.

Another part of Tokyo:

Serena and Chris had been out on a date celebrating her 15 year old birthday. On their way home, they had decided to trough the park and enjoy the moonlight. Serena was resting her head on Chris shoulder, as they walked trough the park. Chris stopped and looked up at the moon that was shinning brightly, illuminating the park with a romantic light.

"I sure miss our home." Chris said.

Serena looked up at him and smiled, "I know. I miss mom and dad too. I really wish that which beryl had never attacked us."

"Yeah, and from what Justin tells me, we are in for a surprise soon…" Chris was interrupted by a loud scream.

"You can say that again, Chris." Serena said.

"Hmmm. I wasn't referring to this surprise, darling." Chris replied. They took of in the direction on the scream, while Serena called the other guys for backup.

"We'll be right there." Neil said and signed off.

Where the scouts are:

The fight wasn't going to well for the scouts. Mercury and Venus rested against a tree while Saturn where attending their wounds. Pluto was standing next to them and was about to attack when…

"Sun guardian sword attack!!" A voice yelled. The attack his one of the droids and turned it to dust instantly.

"WHAT?!?! WHO ARE YOU!!?" Alexandrite yelled, furiously that someone had defeated one of his droids. He turned around to see two people stand in front of him,

"Who are you!?!" The droids sneered.

"I am the prince of the sun and she is sailor Cosmic Moon. We will not allow that you and you minions are hurting innocent people." Sun knight said. The Scouts gasped at the mention of the scout's name.

"Grrr. You will pay for your defiance!" Alexandrite yelled and sent a blast towards them.

"Cosmic Moon blades, attack!!" Cosmic Moon yelled. The attack hurdled toward the general and hit him dead on. The scouts looked on in astonishment as the general where blasted back several feet. They droids powered up to attack universe.

"Uranus sword, attack!!" Another voice yelled. They droid was turned into dust almost immediately.

"Welcome Earth, creeps! I am going to send you back where you came from and no return ticket is given." Uranus knight yelled at the droids. The droids sneered at him.

"Catch! Uranus power, seek and destroy!" He yelled.

"Sun sword power, destroy!" Sun knight yelled.

"Venus sword power, destroy!" Venus knight yelled.

The three attacks hit the remaining droids and turned them to dust.

Venus knight looked around, "Yes, 2-0 to the good guys!"

Sailor Mars looked at them, "Who are you!?!" she demanded.

"That's none of your business, Sailor Mars." The Sun knight said.

"Yes it is," said Sailor Venus, "and who are you!?" she more or less screamed at the Venus knight, who just looked at her like she was crazy or something. That got Sailor Venus even angrier.

"That's enough!" Sailor Cosmic Moon said. Sailor Sun and Universe had joined up with her by now. The other scouts looked at her.

"Who the hell asked you!? Mars and Uranus sneered as the glared hatefully at the two scouts who apparently was protecting their princess. Darien looked at them. He knew it was the same people that had fought with serenity.

The other people looked at the scouts as if they were nuts. Cosmic Moon didn't say anything. She just turned around and left with the two other scouts.

"I would advice you not to get on our way." Venus knight said. "My leader isn't too happy about new comers and especially weak once such as your self."

He and the other knights turned and left the scouts, who were really pissed of, especially the outer scouts, who were known as the strongest warriors in the solar system.

"When you wake up in the morning all your bruises and wound will be gone." Saturn knight said. The scouts looked at the knight. Hotaru let out a low gasp. He was dressed in a purple coloured uniform and had the sign of Saturn on his chest.

"Who... who are you?" sailor Saturn asked.

"I am the knight of Saturn." And with that said, he disappeared into the night with the others.

"Saturn knight." Hotaru whispered.
