I wrote this story 5 years ago (GASP!) when all I had was the DiC dub. That's
why I use some English and Japanese names. I ain't going back to change 'em! :p
Yeah, I know the Starlights don't do anything in my story but fly away, and it's
not in script format, but I couldn't think of anything else for a title.
Sailor Moon is owned by some Japanese people who are not me. Even if did try to
sue me, I wouldn't be able to read the subpoena ;p

Part 4:
Eternal Sailor Moon, the Outer Scouts, Tuxedo Mask, and the Captain
were on the roof of the antique shop. At the moment, they were looking at the
cleanup crew down below. But now, they stepped back and began to talk.
"I think we should introduce ourselves before we go on," Neptune said.
"Wait. Are you sure we can trust him," Uranus said, pointing to the
Captain. She saw the bad look he was giving her right through his mask.
"I trust him without hesitation," Sailor Moon detransformed on the
spot, and said, "my full name's Tsukino Serena."
"A beautiful name," the Captain responded.
"What about you guys?" Serena asked.
"Maybe, but he goes first," Uranus said.
"Very well," and, in the same manner as before, his armor morphed into
a business suit. His helmet also morphed for the first time. It became a pair
of Oakley shades, and now he looked like a man who would be respected in the
business world. All of them except Uranus were impressed by the man that stood
before them.
"Snappy suit," Pluto said.
"It's an Armani, of course. If I can wear anything I want, I might as
well wear the best."
"You sound like a commercial," Saturn said, and they all giggled, "I
like you. I'll go next," and she detransformed, "I'm Tomoe Hotaru."
"Well, little lady, I'm glad you like me," and they bowed. Neptune de-
transformed next with a little glare from Uranus.
"I'm Kaiou Michiru."
"Nice to meet such a beautiful lady," he said, and they bowed. Tuxedo
Mask followed suit.
"Chiba Darien."
"'s up, bro." he said, and they bowed, "You're takin' good care of the
Princess, right?"
"You better believe it."
"Alright," he said, and gave him a hi-five. Uranus proceeded.
"I'm Ten'ou Haruka, and I'm the one you don't mess with," she said as
they bowed.
"Doesn't look like you could be messed up any more. I can't believe I
have to look at your ugly mug for the rest of this mission."
"You're not exactly a prize catch yourself, you asshole! C'mon! You
want some of this?!" she screamed, and took a fighting stance.
"You don't know what you're getting into!" he replied, and he took a
fighting stance, "but chances are, whatever I do will be an improvement!"
"Hey, you two, STOP IT!" Serena shouted. They both took down their
stances.
"As you command, princess," but to Haruka he whispered, "this ain't
over yet." Of course, neither would admit it, but they both knew the other
looked good. Pluto began to detransform, but in the middle of it Michiru said:
"Hey, you haven't told us your name."
"Oh, right. It's T-T-T-Ta," but he was gone, gone into his own little
world where the only things that existed there were a detransformed Setsuna
and sparkly bubbly things that were floating around her. Setsuna noticed the
way he was staring at her and blushed. The others noticed it too.
"I'm Meiou Setsuna," she meekly said.
"Setsuna," he quietly repeated. "I am Tachibana Ryu." With that he
bowed to Setsuna the same way he bowed to Sailor Moon, placing his forehead on
the top of her hand. This made Setsuna's face completely red.
"Hey," Haruka said, "I hate to stop Beauty and the Beast over there,
but we do have work to do."
"Right. Well, ahem," Ryu said as he got up, "I think that we should
teleport a couple hundred meters away from the ship, survey their defenses,
and then formulate a plan of attack. Does that plan meet with your approval,
Princess?"
"Huh? Oh, yeah, sure. Fine by me. But do we hafta use the Negaportal?
It's creepy, AND from the Negaverse."
"Yes, Princess. It's the fastest method of teleportation I have ever
encountered, and I've seen them all. The Negaverse could manipulate energy
with the best of them, you have to give'em that. I feel sorry for the path
their ancestors chose. But that is all the sympathy they'll get from me."
"Okay. MOON ETERNAL, MAKE UP!"
"URANUS PLANET POWER, MAKE UP!"
"NEPTUNE PLANET POWER, MAKE UP!"
"PLUTO PLANET POWER, MAKE UP!"
"SATURN PLANET POWER, MAKE UP!"
The men, on the other hand, transformed without a word. With Setsuna
transformed, the Captain could concentrate on opening the Negaportal.
"Alright, let's go."
"Hey, you weren't going to leave without us, were you?" Artemis said
from behind them.
"Luna, Artemis!" Ryu shouted.
"Ryu?" they both asked in unison, "is it really you, old friend?" They
both jumped into his arms and he started to pet them.
"Oh, it's great to see you again."
"Ditto. Come, we have debriefing and catching up to do," and with that
he stepped into the portal. All of the others followed right behind him except
for Sailor Moon. She stood in front of the portal and stared at it, a whimper
building on her face. A white gloved hand popped out of the portal, grabbed
Sailor Moon by the neck (in a comical manner), and pulled her in.
The signal was coming from underground. But the signal's epicenter was
only a few meters away from the crater Super Sailor Mercury was sitting in.
That's where she guessed there would be some kind of way into the fortress.
She was bounding along the surface of her planet, anxious to get out of the
intense heat of the supersized sun. Her suit and bubbles were protecting her
for now, but she didn't know how long it would last. She stopped inside a cra-
ter, standing right over the signal's origin. There was something hiding under
the dirt of the crater, and she decided to wash it away.
"MERCURY ICE STORM BLAST!" She was careful to point it down, but it
did nothing. Then the ground shook under her and the dirt disappeared. She was
now standing on a flat metal pane, about ten meters wide. Four pipes were
coming from underground and were attached at the corners. She saw a light mist
penetrate through a circular shaped crack on the top of the pane. The mist
increased as the circle disappeared into the pane and revealed a porthole.
"Captain Jofril!"
"What is it, Fidj?"
"There's a signal emanating from an underground source, ma'am."
"What? Why didn't we see this underground facility before?"
"I don't know, camouflage? Please take a look at this." A large,
winged woman, dressed in the same uniform as Khidf, walked over to a smaller
man, dressed in black, and with his hair over his eyes.
"A local is at the signal."
"Where did that local come from?"
"I don't know, but it's releasing energy at it."
"There's a reason it's there, and I want to know it. Ready the ship.
We're paying that local a visit."
Super Sailor Mars felt compelled to go to the northern side of Olympus
Mons after the psychic flash caught her attention. The answers were there for
sure. She stopped in front of a giant stone archway. She was hardly able to
see it, and if it wasn't for the fact that she knew this was the right place,
she would've missed it. But as she got closer, she noticed that, instead of a
tunnel, there was a wall under the arch.
'Hmmm. How do I get in?' she thought. She stepped up to it and lightly
touched the wall with her hand. She immediately pulled it back as the wall was
hot and nearly burned her. As she massaged her hand, the wall glowed with an
energy and was changing into a huge stone statue. It was shaped like a huge
man, but with a faceless head. Then, in a blinding flash of light, the stone
turned to lava, opened bright yellow eyes, and lunged at her.
"Captain Wytrel!"
"Yes, Jufgry."
"My scanners have detected a local and something else," said a winged
woman with gray skin and short, blue hair. Hair was a rarity among Xilarurian
women. She faced her captain, another woman, only taller. Her uniform was also
like Khidf's and Jofril's. Jufgry resumed, "It appears to be made out of lava,
but it's somehow retaining a shape."
"Hrift, verify," Wytrel said to another crewmember, a bald man with a
huge scar from the top left to the bottom right of his face. Unlike women, men
of the Xilaruri were rarely born bald, nor did they lose their hair. Even more
rare was a Xilarurian who retained a scar. He was all three. Born nearly bald,
and the hair he WAS born with fell off in a few years. The scar stayed on his
face because of strange microorganisms in a planet he helped conquer.
"Verified," he said, "they're near a volcanic mountain, the tallest in
fact. Whoa. There are immense energies coming from inside the volcano. And not
from natural volcanic activity, either. There appears to be some kind of ma-
gical power within."
"Oooh. I suggest we beat that local to it. It could be profitable."
"Preparing ship."
Super Sailor Jupiter was sure she heard a roar coming from one of the
nearby castles. She guessed it was the one that was shaped like a cube, and
had absolutely no frills, because the other castles, while tall, majestic, and
very beautiful, were not made to last. No one could live there. But people
could still live in that one. She stepped a few paces back and started to run
towards the edge of the island she was on. She wasn't disappointed as a strong
gust of wind blew under her and carried her towards her destination. She knew
her planet wasn't going to let her down. When she landed she saw a fist break
through a wall on the fortress. She was surprised at how strong it was.
"Come," a male voice said as he pulled his fist inside. Unsure about
what to do, she decided to follow the voice. She stepped inside the fortress.
Once her eyes adjusted to the dark, she looked around the empty room. There
were two dark tunnels leading into more darkness.
"Great," she said to herself, "I lost him."
"If you can keep up," a voice from the left tunnel shouted, "I will
lead you."
"Lead me? Lead me where?" But the only reply was a roar. She started
to run, to see if she could "keep up."
"Captain Csifra. The report is in," a man with his green hair over his
eyes said to another man standing over some displays. Again, he was dressed
like Khidf, Jofril, and Wytrel. He was dreading the silver report on this
planet. There was almost no solid land on this planet, and what there was had
no silver. There was only one hundred pahceds of silver in the whole planet,
and the report would only confirm her theory.
"Very well, Grihle. Give it to me."
"All of the planet's silver is in gaseous form spread out evenly over
its atmosphere."
"Damn! This planet's unsalvageable. We'd better report our failure."
"Wait!" another man said, "I've just detected about ten pahceds of
solid silver in one of the floating islands. Not much, but . . ."
"Grihle, verify."
"Sresly's scans are verified," he said as he touched some buttons,
"but I've also detected two locals inside the building."
"Oh, no they don't. We're getting that silver before they do! Ready
the ship."
"Yes, sir!"
Super Sailor Venus was heading towards the flickering light as fast as
she could. She was starting to panic. She was never alone when facing such
power before. Even as Sailor V, she had Artemis at her side, and she was only
fighting stupid punks which were no match for her. But now . . .
"Man, there had better be red ruby slippers and not a Wizard of Oz at
the end of this yellow brick road." She stopped as she saw the source of the
light. It was a huge domed room, with statues and candles everywhere. This
wasn't a fortress, it was a shrine. But then she noticed something was wrong.
Only half of the room was lighted, the side with a giant statue of Lyral, the
Venusian Prophet of Love. The other half had no lighted candles, and Kripler
was missing. Kripler, the Venusian Prophet of War, always accompanied Lyral in
all Venusian shrines, on opposite sides. But she had no time to contemplate
this mystery as two doors at the opposite side of the room opened.
"Captain Qrezil?" a winged woman asked another one, who was dressed,
again, like Khidf, Jofril, Wytrel, and Csifra.
"Yes, Xilar, what is it?" she asked in an annoyed tone.
"I'm bored."
"Ugh. You rookies. Remember, it'll be a while before your missions get
more exciting than this, if you complete your early ones successfully."
"Oh, alright."
"Hmmm," Qrezil said as she looked at some displays, "You want some
excitement? There's a local inside a cave surrounded by intense magic. Feel
like investigating?"
"Do I!? Preparing the ship!"
Amiri was so hot she had to strip down to her gray shirt, gray shorts,
and a white blanket she held over her head to protect herself. But all this
was ordinary compared to what she had around her head. She was wearing an
intricately decorated bandana with a feather attached at the back. It looked
very Native American, and it was positioned over her knee-length braided pig-
tail. Obviously, it's not every day you see an Egyptian girl wearing Native
American feathers. Then she started to hear a booming sound approaching her.
She was petrified as she saw a cigar shaped thing flying towards her.
""By Allah, what is that?"" she said to herself. She started to run
away from it but it was catching up to her. Ahead she saw what looked like
cover from the thing, but everything looked hazy. Nevertheless, she dropped
the blanket and started to run even faster towards the black hill. Even when
the thing stopped chasing her, she still ran towards it. But when she got to
it she fainted. Though heat stroke may have played an important part in her
faint, it was probably due to shock as she stood in front of another cigar
shaped ship, only bigger, and with wings. An arm wearing black gloves reached
out from an open door and brought her inside.
"Jeez, it's frickin' hot!" Becky shouted, much to the annoyance of the
others, "Daddy, doesn't this thing have air conditioning?"
"Don't ask me," Paul said, "ask Masato."
"Well?" Becky said.
"Yes, and it was at full power," he replied, "but it wasn't making any
difference, so I turned it off to save fuel."
"You mean it was on the whole time!?" they all asked.
"Mm-hmm."
"Um, what's that?" Becky asked, pointing towards a black object in the
sky that was getting closer.
"Cool! A UFO!" Gloria said.
"Cool!?" Becky said, "You think that thing is COOL!?"
"Oh, man! It's going to ram us!" Masato screamed. And he was right.
Khidf's scout ship was on a collision course. Masato wasn't able to move the
airplane in time and the scout ship rammed right into the plane's left wing.
The plane began a tailspin as it fell to the earth with its left side on fire.
"AAAAAAHH! WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE!!" Becky and Gloria screamed.
"SHUT UP!" Masato screamed, "THERE ARE SOME PARACHUTES IN THE BACK!
GRAB ONE AND JUMP OUT! YOU CAN PUT THEM ON ON THE WAY DOWN, JUST REMEMBER TO
PULL THE CORD!" They did so as quickly as they could and were soon out of the
plane. Their arms started to ache as they tried their best to hold on to their
parachutes. Masato had trouble getting out of the plane as he had to let go of
the controls. This made the plane tailspin again. As he was slowly making his
way to the door, he caught a glimpse of a dark shape heading towards him. His
face turned pale as he realized what was about to happen.
"HE'S GONNA RAM THE PLANE AGAIN!" Becky screamed. The three watched in
horror as the scout ship plowed right through the center of the Cessna. The
scout ship was unscathed as it left the ball of fire. Then it doubled back and
started to head towards the three parachutists. The front tip opened in half
like a mouth and the three screamed as they saw that the ship was going to en-
velop them. They all screamed as darkness consumed them.
"Monsters!" Eternal Sailor Moon shouted, "Heartless monsters! Captain,
we've waited too long. We need to rescue those people." She gave no indication
that she was really scared to death of the aliens. After some Lunar Mind-melds
and detailed scans, they knew everything they needed to know about themselves
and their enemies. They were ready to implement their plans, but you know what
they say about the best laid plans of mice and men.
Khidf threw the unconscious trio into a cell which contained Amiri as
well. His siblings walked in to look at their prizes.
"What are we going to do with them?" Shecou asked.
"Where have you been?" Corji replied, "We'll-"
"Wait," Khidf said, "let's surprise him. Computer, force field the
door to this cell."
*No.*
"What? Computer, follow my command and force field the cell."
*I said no. I will not waste my energy on your puny little demands. We
are being invaded. YOU two will go outside and defend me,* the ship said while
pointing some internal cannons towards Corji and Shecou, *YOU will stay here.*
"What do we do?" Corji whispered to Khidf.
"I dunno. But for right now, let's follow its demands. My helmet does
detect seven locals heading for us. We'll deal with the ship later."
"Right." Corji and Shecou shimmered out of the room.
*Go to Shecou's cabinet,* the ship commanded, *and find a cylinder
with a single button and light on top.* Khidf did so with puzzlement because
he'd never seen anything like this.
*Go to main control and place the cylinder inside the open panel an
internal cannon will be pointing to.* Again, Khidf did so and then waited. For
a few moments nothing happened. Then the ship began to whirr as controls and
buttons began to activate themselves. Outside, four giant pipes came out of
the sides of the ship, two to a side, and embedded themselves into the sand.
The Captain, Tuxedo Mask, Sailor Moon, and Sailor Saturn were waiting
a hundred meters away from the ship. They were waiting for the signal from the
others once they attacked. The Captain was happy to have this time for contem-
plation.
'Oh, man. What am I doing? I have devoted myself to guarding the Prin-
cess, and here I am falling for someone. I must clear my mind of these impure
thoughts and focus on the Princess.' Sailor Moon felt that the Captain was
very troubled about something. She decided she would ask him about it later.
"C'mon. Hurry up," Tuxedo Mask said, "They should've started by now."
"Something's wrong. Maybe we should-" but Saturn was interrupted when
two figures shimmered into existence in front of them.
"WORLD SHAKING!"
"DEEP SUBMERGE!"
"Dead Scream." Their attacks proved futile, though, because now, the
Duldroons reformed themselves the instant they destroyed them. They appeared
right in front of them as they were almost upon the ship. Now, they were being
driven back, unable to warn the others.
"What do we do?" Pluto asked.
"I dunno," Neptune said, "wait. Luna, Artemis, they're only after us.
Maybe you can . . ."
"Of course," Luna said.
"We'll see what we can do," Artemis said as they started to bound over
the Duldroons, which WERE ignoring them.
"AND HURRY!!" They all shouted.
"Fortunately, I speak Arabic," Paul said, ""We will not hurt you. We
do not know where we are, either. Please, we will not hurt you."" Amiri nodded
in response to Paul's kind words and let herself be helped up.
""What's your name?""
""Amiri.""
""Well, Amiri, I'm Paul. The blonde girl is my daughter, Becky, and
the brunette is Gloria."" They all nodded as they introduced each other.
"Maybe there's a way out in another room," Gloria said and left the
cell. Becky stepped out of the cell and saw into main control. She gasped when
she saw Khidf.
"There he is," she meekly said.
"Calm down. Now is not the time to panic. We're lucky he's ignoring
us. ""Stay calm, Amiri."" Let's hope Gloria finds something."
"There's a window in that other room," Gloria said, "we might be able
to escape from there." They all headed into a room which was, in fact, Khidf's
private quarters. Luna, who made it inside, but wasn't able to help Artemis
enter, saw them go in and followed them. But she wasn't the only one who saw
them. Khidf saw them sneak in and was infuriated.
"Hey!" Khidf shouted, "Get out of my room!"
"AAAH!" Becky shouted, "He's coming here!"
"Quick," Gloria said, "help me close the door." The four struggled to
close the lumbering metal door before Khidf made it inside, and they did. But
Khidf started to pound on the door as hard as he could.
"Stupid automatic lock! Computer, open this door!"
*No.*
"Damn, I forgot. Hmm?" He noticed he was starting to make some pretty
good indentations on the door. He energized his now glowing fists and began
pounding on the door again, only harder. He would be through in a matter of
micro-clicks.
"He's breaking through!" Becky shouted.
"WE KNOW!" Paul and Gloria shouted. Paul grabbed one of the chairs and
flung it against the window. It bounced back and nearly hit him.
"DAMN! Some kind of plexi-glass."
"You mean we're stuck here!?" Becky shouted.
"Yes, and could you stop SHOUTING!" Gloria shouted. The quartet now
were huddling back into a corner as they prepared for the worst. Luna was
looking at them and began to feel an energy rising in one of them, but she
wasn't sure which one. Suddenly, she realized that one of the girls had to be
Sailor Earth. The three girls screamed, and as she waited for the symbol to
appear on one of their foreheads (she was sure their current state of panic
would make one of them reveal their destiny), the next moment came to her like
two blows to the head.
All three girls had the symbol of Earth on their foreheads.
And she did not have a transformation stick for Earth.

man, but with a faceless head. Then, in a blinding flash of light, the stone
turned to lava, opened bright yellow eyes, and lunged at her.
"Captain Wytrel!"
"Yes, Jufgry."
"My scanners have detected a local and something else," said a winged
woman with gray skin and short, blue hair. Hair was a rarity among Xilarurian
women. She faced her captain, another woman, only taller. Her uniform was also
like Khidf's and Jofril's. Jufgry resumed, "It appears to be made out of lava,
but it's somehow retaining a shape."
"Hrift, verify," Wytrel said to another crewmember, a bald man with a
huge scar from the top left to the bottom right of his face. Unlike women, men
of the Xilaruri were rarely born bald, nor did they lose their hair. Even more
rare was a Xilarurian who retained a scar. He was all three. Born nearly bald,
and the hair he WAS born with fell off in a few years. The scar stayed on his
face because of strange microorganisms in a planet he helped conquer.
"Verified," he said, "they're near a volcanic mountain, the tallest in
fact. Whoa. There are immense energies coming from inside the volcano. And not
from natural volcanic activity, either. There appears to be some kind of ma-
gical power within."
"Oooh. I suggest we beat that local to it. It could be profitable."
"Preparing ship."
Super Sailor Jupiter was sure she heard a roar coming from one of the
nearby castles. She guessed it was the one that was shaped like a cube, and
had absolutely no frills, because the other castles, while tall, majestic, and
very beautiful, were not made to last. No one could live there. But people
could still live in that one. She stepped a few paces back and started to run
towards the edge of the island she was on. She wasn't disappointed as a strong
gust of wind blew under her and carried her towards her destination. She knew
her planet wasn't going to let her down. When she landed she saw a fist break
through a wall on the fortress. She was surprised at how strong it was.
"Come," a male voice said as he pulled his fist inside. Unsure about
what to do, she decided to follow the voice. She stepped inside the fortress.
Once her eyes adjusted to the dark, she looked around the empty room. There
were two dark tunnels leading into more darkness.
"Great," she said to herself, "I lost him."
"If you can keep up," a voice from the left tunnel shouted, "I will
lead you."
"Lead me? Lead me where?" But the only reply was a roar. She started
to run, to see if she could "keep up."
"Captain Csifra. The report is in," a man with his green hair over his
eyes said to another man standing over some displays. Again, he was dressed
like Khidf, Jofril, and Wytrel. He was dreading the silver report on this
planet. There was almost no solid land on this planet, and what there was had
no silver. There was only one hundred pahceds of silver in the whole planet,
and the report would only confirm her theory.
"Very well, Grihle. Give it to me."
"All of the planet's silver is in gaseous form spread out evenly over
its atmosphere."
"Damn! This planet's unsalvageable. We'd better report our failure."
"Wait!" another man said, "I've just detected about ten pahceds of
solid silver in one of the floating islands. Not much, but . . ."
"Grihle, verify."
"Sresly's scans are verified," he said as he touched some buttons,
"but I've also detected two locals inside the building."
"Oh, no they don't. We're getting that silver before they do! Ready
the ship."
"Yes, sir!"
Super Sailor Venus was heading towards the flickering light as fast as
she could. She was starting to panic. She was never alone when facing such
power before. Even as Sailor V, she had Artemis at her side, and she was only
fighting stupid punks which were no match for her. But now . . .
"Man, there had better be red ruby slippers and not a Wizard of Oz at
the end of this yellow brick road." She stopped as she saw the source of the
light. It was a huge domed room, with statues and candles everywhere. This
wasn't a fortress, it was a shrine. But then she noticed something was wrong.
Only half of the room was lighted, the side with a giant statue of Lyral, the
Venusian Prophet of Love. The other half had no lighted candles, and Kripler
was missing. Kripler, the Venusian Prophet of War, always accompanied Lyral in
all Venusian shrines, on opposite sides. But she had no time to contemplate
this mystery as two doors at the opposite side of the room opened.
"Captain Qrezil?" a winged woman asked another one, who was dressed,
again, like Khidf, Jofril, Wytrel, and Csifra.
"Yes, Xilar, what is it?" she asked in an annoyed tone.
"I'm bored."
"Ugh. You rookies. Remember, it'll be a while before your missions get
more exciting than this, if you complete your early ones successfully."
"Oh, alright."
"Hmmm," Qrezil said as she looked at some displays, "You want some
excitement? There's a local inside a cave surrounded by intense magic. Feel
like investigating?"
"Do I!? Preparing the ship!"
Amiri was so hot she had to strip down to her gray shirt, gray shorts,
and a white blanket she held over her head to protect herself. But all this
was ordinary compared to what she had around her head. She was wearing an
intricately decorated bandana with a feather attached at the back. It looked
very Native American, and it was positioned over her knee-length braided pig-
tail. Obviously, it's not every day you see an Egyptian girl wearing Native
American feathers. Then she started to hear a booming sound approaching her.
She was petrified as she saw a cigar shaped thing flying towards her.
""By Allah, what is that?"" she said to herself. She started to run
away from it but it was catching up to her. Ahead she saw what looked like
cover from the thing, but everything looked hazy. Nevertheless, she dropped
the blanket and started to run even faster towards the black hill. Even when
the thing stopped chasing her, she still ran towards it. But when she got to
it she fainted. Though heat stroke may have played an important part in her
faint, it was probably due to shock as she stood in front of another cigar
shaped ship, only bigger, and with wings. An arm wearing black gloves reached
out from an open door and brought her inside.
"Jeez, it's frickin' hot!" Becky shouted, much to the annoyance of the
others, "Daddy, doesn't this thing have air conditioning?"
"Don't ask me," Paul said, "ask Masato."
"Well?" Becky said.
"Yes, and it was at full power," he replied, "but it wasn't making any
difference, so I turned it off to save fuel."
"You mean it was on the whole time!?" they all asked.
"Mm-hmm."
"Um, what's that?" Becky asked, pointing towards a black object in the
sky that was getting closer.
"Cool! A UFO!" Gloria said.
"Cool!?" Becky said, "You think that thing is COOL!?"
"Oh, man! It's going to ram us!" Masato screamed. And he was right.
Khidf's scout ship was on a collision course. Masato wasn't able to move the
airplane in time and the scout ship rammed right into the plane's left wing.
The plane began a tailspin as it fell to the earth with its left side on fire.
"AAAAAAHH! WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE!!" Becky and Gloria screamed.
"SHUT UP!" Masato screamed, "THERE ARE SOME PARACHUTES IN THE BACK!
GRAB ONE AND JUMP OUT! YOU CAN PUT THEM ON ON THE WAY DOWN, JUST REMEMBER TO
PULL THE CORD!" They did so as quickly as they could and were soon out of the
plane. Their arms started to ache as they tried their best to hold on to their
parachutes. Masato had trouble getting out of the plane as he had to let go of
the controls. This made the plane tailspin again. As he was slowly making his
way to the door, he caught a glimpse of a dark shape heading towards him. His
face turned pale as he realized what was about to happen.
"HE'S GONNA RAM THE PLANE AGAIN!" Becky screamed. The three watched in
horror as the scout ship plowed right through the center of the Cessna. The
scout ship was unscathed as it left the ball of fire. Then it doubled back and
started to head towards the three parachutists. The front tip opened in half
like a mouth and the three screamed as they saw that the ship was going to en-
velop them. They all screamed as darkness consumed them.
"Monsters!" Eternal Sailor Moon shouted, "Heartless monsters! Captain,
we've waited too long. We need to rescue those people." She gave no indication
that she was really scared to death of the aliens. After some Lunar Mind-melds
and detailed scans, they knew everything they needed to know about themselves
and their enemies. They were ready to implement their plans, but you know what
they say about the best laid plans of mice and men.
Khidf threw the unconscious trio into a cell which contained Amiri as
well. His siblings walked in to look at their prizes.
"What are we going to do with them?" Shecou asked.
"Where have you been?" Corji replied, "We'll-"
"Wait," Khidf said, "let's surprise him. Computer, force field the
door to this cell."
*No.*
"What? Computer, follow my command and force field the cell."
*I said no. I will not waste my energy on your puny little demands. We
are being invaded. YOU two will go outside and defend me,* the ship said while
pointing some internal cannons towards Corji and Shecou, *YOU will stay here.*
"What do we do?" Corji whispered to Khidf.
"I dunno. But for right now, let's follow its demands. My helmet does
detect seven locals heading for us. We'll deal with the ship later."
"Right." Corji and Shecou shimmered out of the room.
*Go to Shecou's cabinet,* the ship commanded, *and find a cylinder
with a single button and light on top.* Khidf did so with puzzlement because
he'd never seen anything like this.
*Go to main control and place the cylinder inside the open panel an
internal cannon will be pointing to.* Again, Khidf did so and then waited. For
a few moments nothing happened. Then the ship began to whirr as controls and
buttons began to activate themselves. Outside, four giant pipes came out of
the sides of the ship, two to a side, and embedded themselves into the sand.
The Captain, Tuxedo Mask, Sailor Moon, and Sailor Saturn were waiting
a hundred meters away from the ship. They were waiting for the signal from the
others once they attacked. The Captain was happy to have this time for contem-
plation.
'Oh, man. What am I doing? I have devoted myself to guarding the Prin-
cess, and here I am falling for someone. I must clear my mind of these impure
thoughts and focus on the Princess.' Sailor Moon felt that the Captain was
very troubled about something. She decided she would ask him about it later.
"C'mon. Hurry up," Tuxedo Mask said, "They should've started by now."
"Something's wrong. Maybe we should-" but Saturn was interrupted when
two figures shimmered into existence in front of them.
"WORLD SHAKING!"
"DEEP SUBMERGE!"
"Dead Scream." Their attacks proved futile, though, because now, the
Duldroons reformed themselves the instant they destroyed them. They appeared
right in front of them as they were almost upon the ship. Now, they were being
driven back, unable to warn the others.
"What do we do?" Pluto asked.
"I dunno," Neptune said, "wait. Luna, Artemis, they're only after us.
Maybe you can . . ."
"Of course," Luna said.
"We'll see what we can do," Artemis said as they started to bound over
the Duldroons, which WERE ignoring them.
"AND HURRY!!" They all shouted.
"Fortunately, I speak Arabic," Paul said, ""We will not hurt you. We
do not know where we are, either. Please, we will not hurt you."" Amiri nodded
in response to Paul's kind words and let herself be helped up.
""What's your name?""
""Amiri.""
""Well, Amiri, I'm Paul. The blonde girl is my daughter, Becky, and
the brunette is Gloria."" They all nodded as they introduced each other.
"Maybe there's a way out in another room," Gloria said and left the
cell. Becky stepped out of the cell and saw into main control. She gasped when
she saw Khidf.
"There he is," she meekly said.
"Calm down. Now is not the time to panic. We're lucky he's ignoring
us. ""Stay calm, Amiri."" Let's hope Gloria finds something."
"There's a window in that other room," Gloria said, "we might be able
to escape from there." They all headed into a room which was, in fact, Khidf's
private quarters. Luna, who made it inside, but wasn't able to help Artemis
enter, saw them go in and followed them. But she wasn't the only one who saw
them. Khidf saw them sneak in and was infuriated.
"Hey!" Khidf shouted, "Get out of my room!"
"AAAH!" Becky shouted, "He's coming here!"
"Quick," Gloria said, "help me close the door." The four struggled to
close the lumbering metal door before Khidf made it inside, and they did. But
Khidf started to pound on the door as hard as he could.
"Stupid automatic lock! Computer, open this door!"
*No.*
"Damn, I forgot. Hmm?" He noticed he was starting to make some pretty
good indentations on the door. He energized his now glowing fists and began
pounding on the door again, only harder. He would be through in a matter of
micro-clicks.
"He's breaking through!" Becky shouted.
"WE KNOW!" Paul and Gloria shouted. Paul grabbed one of the chairs and
flung it against the window. It bounced back and nearly hit him.
"DAMN! Some kind of plexi-glass."
"You mean we're stuck here!?" Becky shouted.
"Yes, and could you stop SHOUTING!" Gloria shouted. The quartet now
were huddling back into a corner as they prepared for the worst. Luna was
looking at them and began to feel an energy rising in one of them, but she
wasn't sure which one. Suddenly, she realized that one of the girls had to be
Sailor Earth. The three girls screamed, and as she waited for the symbol to
appear on one of their foreheads (she was sure their current state of panic
would make one of them reveal their destiny), the next moment came to her like
two blows to the head.
All three girls had the symbol of Earth on their foreheads.
And she did not have a transformation stick for Earth.
