"Sailor Moon Super Stars"

Chapter One

A New Enemy

All of the girls but Raye are at Serena's small house. They had

planned to meet there a couple of days ago, and they were wondering

why Raye wasn't there yet.

Already, the first scout meeting of the summer was off to a very bad

start. An ebony black cat, with a mysterious moon crescent on her

forehead, was losing her composure with the head of the scouts,

Serena, known also as Sailor Moon. The precious young woman was to

be the future ruler of the moon and earth, which would bring about

eternal peace. But of course, Serena is definitely not perfect, and

she's not exactly what you would expect to see as a gracefully

powerful ruler. She could barely handle her schoolwork. And this is

where our story starts.

"Serena, can you chew with your mouth closed for once?" Luna said.

Serena pretended she didn't hear her and grabbed another

cookie. "This is our future queen," Luna mumbled, where only she

could hear. In her mind, she had expected Serena to act more mature

and careful when she had almost lost all of her friends just a couple

of months ago. To have gone through a crisis as horrendous as that,

Luna expected her to be more on her guard, careful. But the bouncy

blonde had not a care in the world. "She'll never grow up." Luna

thought to herself exasperatedly.

To break the icy conversation that was about to form, Mina

said, "It's not like Raye to be late for anything, especially one of

our sailor meetings that she set up. Mina had settled on her stomach

between two pillows, and would jump at any opportunity to stop Luna

from giving a sermon. The golden haired teenager had gotten her hair

done up in braids, and fancied herself to look like a goddess. She

wanted to be rich and famous, and prayed repetitively for her big

break. She also had a renowned trust and loyalty to Serena. It was,

of course, Serena's valor that had rescued them from Galaxia's wrath.

"But I think that it was lucky that Serena's parents had to leave so

we could use the house, beings that Ray said we couldn't use the

temple," stated the brilliant blue haired girl, Amy.

Between bites of cookie, Serena managed to say, "Well, she's always

fussing at me for being late, and look at her, I mean, why that

little."

"Um, Serena, we have let up on that, and Raye has gotten a lot better

on controlling her temper, and you are getting a little bit better on

um.time," Amy said, breaking in reluctantly. She really hated that

Serena and Raye were always fighting. Amy, who was rather sore of

sitting on the floor, thought about how she used to hardly ever get

mad, but lately she had been on a short temper, and almost restless;

But, now that they didn't have any more sailor work to do, she had to

get used to being out of school for the summer, and her mom working

all day.

"Anyways, I wonder why she said we couldn't use the temple, we've

always used the temple as the meeting place, and I was very lucky

that my dad suddenly got called away. My mom already had to take my

brother to camp anyway, which is like in another freakin' country."

Serena said abruptly.

Luna butted in, saying, "Serena, you should talk with better

composition, learn to talk like a princess, the fact being that you

are one."

"Not to mention our future Queen," added Lita, "You will have to lead

us some day."

At this Serena became pissed at the mention of her job as a princess,

as if they didn't remind her all of the time, but to control her

temper, she said" I think Raye is acting suspicious if you ask me."

Lita corrected "It's nothing like that, Serena, it's just that her

grandpa has been very moody these past few days, running all around

the temple, scaring visitors away, I don't know what has come over

him. And since Chad had gone off for summer vacation (probably

somewhere where he could get anyone to listen to his music) Grandpa

was always hanging around with Raye and her friends, which was kind

of scary.

"I think it's this heat, and everything being so.well, you know,

normal now," said Artemis, who had been quiet the whole time the

others were talking. He had been laying his head on Luna's back,

thinking, and was really starting to miss Diana, who had been sent

back to the future with Rini.

With Artemis lying on her back, Luna felt very comfortable and warm;

she loved how close they had grown. But at the mention of Diana, she

felt sad. She remembered the day that her and Rini had said

goodbye. Rini said that they had been away from their real home too

long, and that they had to go back. The only thing that was wrong

was that they had said that the time key had been used too much, and

that they would not be able to come back to them.ever. The thought

brought a tear to her eye, but she caught it before it fell.

Serena, too, had been thinking of how she wouldn't see Rini. "Sure,"

she thought to herself, "she had been a complete brat to me, but at

those times when we were close, it was the best feeling in the

world." She thought of the times they went shopping, and the times

they went for ice cream, and she smiled slightly.

Across the room, propped up on a couple of pillows, Lita had this

really goofy looking expression on her face. She had been the

happiest anyone ever saw her lately, and her cheeks always seemed to

be flushed. She was thinking of her new boyfriend, Blake; She had

finally found a boy that was like her. He was built, very hot, and

liked to kick box. It's just that sometimes he was too.too much like

a pig. He was always eating, and he had tried to put moves on Lita

at very uncomfortable times; In front of his friends was his favorite

place to show off. But the strange thing was that when he wasn't

around his friends, he was like Prince Charming. She saw a vision of

his face, him running his fingers through his dark auburn hair

floating in mid-air, and got that goofy look back on her face.

"Hey," interrupted Holly, just crashing through the doors, "I thought

you invited us to the meeting," motioning that she had Amara,

Michelle, and Trista with her.

The other girls jumped out of their daze. They had really been

trying to concentrate on their own worries. The four outer sailors

had been invited, but Luna and the girls really hadn't expected them

to come. The outer sailors mostly didn't stay with them unless it

was in fighting.

"Oh, we, um.thought that you had changed your minds," stuttered Amy,

who was always nervous around the stronger and older sailors, "the

meeting did start about half an hour ago, and but we were waiting for

Raye, so...welcome to our Princess's humble home."

At this statement, Serena cheeks reddened and she turned away,

suddenly wishing they had gone to one of the other girl's houses. In

her mind, she wished that they would just leave her alone about being

the moon princess, until it was time for her to rule. She knew that

she wasn't exactly their idea of a princess, and they kept bringing

it up to see if Serena would change. Didn't they understand that she

just wanted to try to live a normal life? Why keep bringing up this

princess crap all of the time?

The other sailors, minus Trista and Amy, all made a fake bow towards

Serena, who mumbled "Jackasses." Luna and the others could barely

keep from laughing. The sailors found comfortable spots to sit, and

helped themselves to cookies, which were piled in a rather large heap

on the table in the middle of the room.

"How's Darien doing, Serena?" asked Holly, who settled herself next

to Lita.

She frowned at this question, but answered, "He is being so quiet,

and I have barely seen him all week. You know, he's planning on

flying over somewhere for college soon. I forgot where, but it was

the same place he was going to go before." Serena left the sentence

unfinished, but the sailors knew what she meant.

While trying to find a nice place to sit, Amara stated, "Well, I

think it has been very quiet around here lately." Which was true,

beings that the sailors had defeated their most challenging enemy

yet, Sailor Galaxia.

"You know, now that I think about it, it is quiet. And I miss the

Starlights, especially Yaten," stated Mina, who bit her lip,

realizing that she had made a mistake. At the mention of the

Starlights, the scouts all snuck looks at Serena, who was suddenly

very interested in the ceiling. Serena had become really good

friends with Seiya, the Star Fighter, and she was embarrassed that

all of the other sailors knew his true feelings toward her and she

still didn't understand. Seiya had indeed been very handsome, and

graced over Serena. But she still thought that they had been just

friends. The truth was that Seiya had been in love with her. She

didn't notice this, because she was too worried about Darien the

whole time they were fighting. Seiya also held a massive grudge

against Darien, who he thought cause his precious Serena so much

heartache.

"It's true that we all had the chance to become friends with the

Starlights and their queen," said Amy, very tenderly, remembering the

Starlights' frail princess, Princess Fireball.

"Yeah," Amara said, who had never really trusted the Starlights,

thinking that they were a risk to Serena's safety. "I mean, maybe if

it wasn't for their help, we wouldn't be here right now, much less

the rest of the world. Oh, and we definitely wouldn't have been here

if it wasn't for Serena's brave." Suddenly Ray burst in through the

door, panting, as if she had run a marathon, and she looked scared to

death.

Her face was flushed blood red. "Th..th.." she panted. The girls

tried to calm her down to hear what she was about to say. She

finally managed to say, "There's a new enemy, and she has destroyed a

part of town, and now she is heading straight for the temple!"

The sailors wasted no time. They all ran out the back door of the

house so no one would notice, and ran into a grove of trees.

"Pluto Planet Power!"

"Neptune Planet Power!"

"Uranus Planet Power!"

"Saturn Planet Power!"

"Mercury Crystal Power!"

"Jupiter Crystal Power!"

"Mars Crystal Power!"

"Venus Crystal Power!"

"Eternal Moon Power!" They all transformed, and started running

toward the temple.

Grandpa had run out, scared at the loud crashed he heard, and tripped

over a rock, and had been knocked unconscious. Sailor Mars cried out

and started to run toward him, but all of a sudden, a blast of energy

was shot straight at her. She dodged it just in time.

Pluto formed her attack "Pluto Deadly Scream!" and sent it towards

the creature, who easily dodged it.

"We are the sailor scouts, and we fight the forces of evil, and we

will fight you!" chimed Uranus and Neptune together.

Then they heard a cackling voice call, "Well, if it isn't the puny

little Sailor soldiers. And all together, too! Sailors, I have a

treat for you." Suddenly she formed a gigantic energy ball in her

hands, and got ready to throw.

"Why are you doing this?" Asked Ray, in a very pissed-off voice,

still looking at her grandfather, lying on the ground.

"Well," the woman started, in an even angrier voice, "you are the

little witches that killed my brothers, Diamond and Sapphire!!!"

Then she sent the energy ball soaring right at them.
