Chapter Five: The Ancient Senshi Revealed
Chibiusa felt her mind automatically switch to combat mode as she saw the demon charge her. She had been training with all the senshi since she was little and never actually got a chance to have a real fight with a real enemy. AND after her mother had retired from her Senshi status, Chibiusa was able to graduate and delete the 'chibi' from her name, now being able to claim the name Sailor Moon. Unlike her mother, however, Chibiusa didn't depend on the crystal to give her her strength; she found that on her own during her training.

As the demon closed in on Chibiusa, she left high into the air, leaving the demon to fall past her. While in the air, Chibiusa raised her hand into the air.

"Crystal Moon Makeup!" She shouted loudly as a bright flash of light erupted from around her.

The gray-haired girl forcefully pushed her way through the crowd to the clearing where Chibiusa, now Sailor Moon, landed gracefully on the ground. The girl's jaw dropped in utter shock and surprise at the sight of her and quickly grabbed onto her sword angrily.

"Leave these people alone!" Chibiusa commanded as she stood confidently on the road. Her fuku was exactly the same however, from the original Sailor Moon's. Her skirt was still pink, and her boots were still pink. She now hated the color.

The demon opened his mouth and let out a great stream of fire to blaze towards Chibiusa, but she again leaped into the air to dodge it. She landed on top of a wooden house against the house.

"If you want a fight, than follow me! I wont let innocent people be injured because of you!" She yelled as she ran off. The demon let out a dark growl as it leapt into the air and onto the roof to follow her.

The gray-haired girl snarled annoyingly as she released her grip from her sword. She turned and violently pushed her way through the heavy crowd, "MOVE!" She shouted angrily. The mass of people soon split to allow her to speed off into the forest outside of the village.

Chibiusa pressed her back against a tree in the dark forest and listened intensely at the surroundings around her. The demon was somewhere in the forest with her, but where? As Chibiusa thought this, she sensed the beast behind her and ducked quickly as its claws cut through the thick tree. The trunk of the tree slowly tipped over and fell heavily onto the ground. Chibiusa leapt into the air and kicked the demon strongly in the neck.

"Ah!" it shouted as it was sent crashing violently into a thick tree- trunk. The beast re-gained it's composure and leapt once more at Chibiusa, who caught it in the jaw with her elbow, and turned to knee it in the ribs. The beast hunched over as Chibiusa pulled her fist behind her to uppercut the demon violently in the nose, sending it into the air. She leapt into the air after it and clasped her hands together and rose them into the air. When she found herself parallel with the monster, she swung her clasped hands strongly onto his gut and sent him down and crashing onto the dirt ground.

Chibiusa landed gracefully on the ground with a great grin across her face, "AHH! That was GREAT!!!" She laughed as she stretched her arms up into the air, "I've been waiting YEARS to do that!! AHAHAHAHA!" While Chibiusa was too preoccupied with her laughing and dorky glee, the beast slowly rose from the ground and grabbed her by the throat and threw her against a nearby tree.

"Give me the crystal!" He growled angrily as his grip became tighter. Chibiusa grasped tightly onto the wrists of the hands choking her and attempted to break them away, but failed miserably.

"Drop her, now!" a voice was heard from behind the monster. The demon looked over his shoulder and saw the gray-haired girl standing confidently with her hand resting on the sword handle at her side.

"You. leave us be! This doesn't concern you!" the demon shouted as he slowly released Chibiusa, she slid down the tree trunk and grabbed onto her throat to cough violently.

The girl quickly drew the sword from her sheath and closed her eyes. She took a step back with her left foot and twirled the sword before her, causing a red sphere of light to appear from the spinning sword. The girl slowly took a step into the sphere of light and re-emerged a new person, a Senshi. Her skirt was black, her bows dark red.

Chibiusa stared, completely in awe and shock at her, amazed that she found a senshi in such a time era.

"I am the Dark One. The lone Senshi, the ancient, for centuries, born from the blood and destruction of the Silver Moon Kingdom, "she slowly opened her blood-red eyes and stared evilly at the demon, "I am Sailor Adrian."
