AN: look at my pro, then click the link that goes to my special site for the Jewel Senshi. Go there if u want to know all the scouts, and their name meanings and destroying attack. And 'Kuchika' means Eternal brightness and intelligence. BE PROUD! –Wacks u-

Ran laughed when Mirei fell asleep in class the next day. She had been up all night talking to Kyo about her powers, and why she shouldn't tell anyone she has magic/power. Her teacher, Ms. Kuchika, rammed on her desk with her ruler. Mirei instantly sat up, from having another strange dream.

"Sorry, Ms. K!" she said briskly.

"Ms. Kuchika," her teacher corrected, then walked.

Mirei sunk down her seat. "Ms. Ku-fart ass," she murmured. Midori, who was sitting in front of her, giggled uncontrollably.

Ms. Kuchika cleared her throat at the end of the day when everyone was acting goofy (it was Friday), causing silence.

"Class, we are going to have a new student starting on Monday," she announced. "Her name is Naomi and she is from the southern part of our country. I expect you to be considerate to her."

The bell rang, and everyone ran out the front door. Only Ran and her friends were left walking, along with Midori and Mirei walking at the end.

"A new student?" Midori said, and was suddenly in deep thought. "Can't wait."

Mirei smiled cheerfully. "We can be the first to talk to her!"

"I don't know," her friend finally said. "She might be mean. After all, her name does mean 'above all.'"

"Stop being—" but Mirei didn't get to finish, because Kyo ran up from a wall, jumped, and landed on her shoulder.

"Another monster," he whispered, then jumped off and started to run the other direction.

"Oh—Midori, I have to go," she stated.

"Now? Why?"

But Mirei was already running after her cat.

"OPAL MOON MAGIC!" she cried as she was running, and transformed into Sailor Opal. "Kyo-kitty, wait up!"

Kyo stopped and glared at her.

"It would help if you had some type of power to run faster or something," he commented, then continued running.

"KYO!!!!" Sailor Opal screamed. Six or seven massive thorns pelted toward him. He tried to run away, but they surrounded him then dug into the ground, creating a cage. Mirei ran up to him, and fell down. "Kyo-kitty, are you alright?" Before he could answer, bluish energy covered the top and the gaps, making it impossible for him to escape.

"What's all this for?" he asked, sitting down. He looked up into Opal's worried eyes, and sighed. "Yes, Sailor Opal, I am fine. These thorns should disappear once you dispose of the enemy. Now go!"

Mirei hesitated, but jumped up. She looked around, unsure where to start. Then she thought she should get up high to see farther. So she started to climb the largest tree around. Luckily she's a good gymnast. Finally she reached a high enough limb to see far distances. Just as she thought, she saw a thing—blue with lots of long slime arms—near the entrance of the other park they had.

She jumped down gracefully and started to run toward the spot. But before she could anywhere close, even larger thorns were thrown in front of her, blocking the way.

"Wha?" she asked, stepping back. "But—the thing's over there." She looked behind her to consult to Kyo, but she noticed that there were thorns over there. She yelped, and saw that she was completely surrounded, and that she couldn't possible jump over them. "Kyo!" she cried, falling on her knees. "This isn't supposed to happen! WAAH!" (Exaggerated anime crying).

Kyo's voice came from a distance. "Get a hold of yourself, Opal! You can get out. Just squeeze through the gaps."

"But the gaps are too small, Kyo-kitty!" she sobbed. "And it'd be impossible for me to jump over them. Impossible!" She broke out in tears.

"Opal, stop whining!" She stopped instantly after hearing Kyo's angry voice. "Now try to get out."

"Don't I have a power that could break through these things?"

"You only get those extra powers when all the Senshi are found," Kyo replied. "Right now you only have this attack."

"I guess--I guess I can try with it."

"Aim."

"MOON OPAL ATTACK!" And she aimed her ring to one of the thorns. Fortunately, once one of them glowed, the others did too. They then exploded into many holographic pieces. "MOON OPAL ATTACK!" and she aimed it at her Kyo's thorn cage, and it, too, shattered.

He ran over. "Good job. Now let's find out who tried to stop us." He looked around with narrow eyes. Mirei, however, went right toward the monster she had seen.

"Stop right there! I am Sailor Opal, The Chosen Sailor Moon! And I will shatter you!"

The blue skinned thing looked at her and laughed. "I just happen to know that the Sailor Scouts are extinct, Sailor-wanna-be."

"Silly," Opal said matter-of-factly. "I am the first Sailor Scout ever put on Earth."

"Silly," the thing mocked. "Haven't you heard of Sailor Moon? You must have, since you've said her name."

"Sailor Moon? But--that's just a title. 'The Chosen Sailor Moon.'"

The thing laughed. "How wrong you are! Sailor Moon was the strongest senshi ever."

Mirei blinked. "There's no such thing as Sailor Moon! Only The Chosen Sailor Moon, and that's me!"

"How funny you sound, Sailor Moon," the monster said, then turned around.

"Sailor Opal," she corrected. "Anyway, enough of this chat. You're dead!" She raised her hand, and tempted to cry out her attack, but she found out that she couldn't move.

"No, Sailor Opal. It is you who is dead." It smiled and turned back around; its eyes were glowing blue. Mirei couldn't help but stare into them. Then she was completely engulfed in pale blue. She couldn't breathe, and it felt as if the pale blue were closing in on her, as walls do at times.

Just when blackness mixed in with the blue, she heard in the far away distance, "Uranus… Peridot… Crush…" Bright green suddenly blew away the blue and black, and Mirei opened her eyes.

Kyo was looking down at her. She was at home, it seemed, and there was the smell of tea coming from downstairs.

"I'm so glad your alright!" he meowed, purring.

She sat up, groaning slightly. "Green…what happened?"

"You were sidetracked, Mirei. That particular monster's powers…well let's just say if it gets you sidetracked, it'll win. You were, you see, and you were forced to look into it's eyes--"

"I didn't do it on purpose!" she shrieked.

"I know you didn't. That's why you can't get sidetracked." Kyo sighed, and sat down on the bed.

"Kyo-kitty, I felt--"

"Like you were going to die?" he asked, looking up. "You were. But…" his voice trailed off.

"What was the bright green I saw? And the--" her eyes widened" --was it a new Sailor Scout? Sailor--Sailor Peridot?"

Kyo nodded. "But as a princess, she was rarely seen. I doubted she'd even be on earth as a scout, but I guess they really need us."

"Who's 'they?'"

"The Crystal Saviors." His smile turned crooked. "They--they own this crystal, you see." He now frowned. "I'll tell you the story once you need to know it. Right now, your mother is making tea. Drink up." And he jumped off the bed when her mother, her eyes black from not sleeping (her job is an all-nighter), came in with some tea, and forced her to drink it.
