A/N: Thanks to reviewers. KEEP THE REVIEWS COMING! I'm on a favorite author's list! Once more, and this is the last time I'm typing this, THIS IS A SERENA/DARIEN FIC. No more reviews pleading me not to make this Seiya/ Serena. It isn't. Now that I've gotten that out of the way, I know I said I'd post Sunday, but I forgot Children of Dune was coming on. I've waited almost a whole year to seen the damn thing. . . So this will probably get posted Monday. Title: Alanis Morrisette (best damn song she ever did).

SHOUTOUTS:

Princess-MoonBunny- Arigato! What a compliment!

Mainia-girl2002- Serena's just going to have on cute clothes; but that's a good idea! See above at the A/N about the Seiya/Serena thing.

DaughterofDeath- Here. Please write something more in your reviews.

Squiggles- Awww . . . tear. Thank you, that's so nice.

Just a teen- Hola, chica! Welcome to the crazy ride! You reviewed every one of my chapters. Cool!!

Disclaimer: I can't believe we have to do this every chapter. We all know we don't own this; we wouldn't be posting if we did.

If ifs were fifths, we'd all be drunk.

Coming Into Her Own

Chapter 3: Uninvited

Walking home after stopping at the arcade, Serena and friends see youmas attacking couples out for a twilight walk in the park.

"Moon Crystal Power!"

"Mars Star Power!"

"Jupiter Star Power!"

"Mercury Star Power!"

"Venus Star Power!"

They powered up and started kicking youma ass. Finally, there was one youma left standing, obviously the leader. He was tall, about 6'5, had red hair and golden eyes. He might have been handsome, except for the sneer on his face and an ugly scar that bisected his face. Mina and Lita attacked first, combining their attacks.

"Jupiter Thunderclap Zap!"

"Venus Love Chain Encircle!"

The youma laughed, caught their attacks and threw them back at them. Lita and Mina went down.

Ami was on her computer frantically trying to find his weak spot. Rei threw her attack next.

"Mars Celestial Fire Surround!" Instead of waiting for the attack to hit her, Rei dove toward the youma and began kicking ass. Well, at least she tried. The youma grabbed her by her hair with one hand and pressed his other hand to her forehead.

"Stop," she screamed, "You're burning me."

"Alright," he said. He let go of her head, but pulled her into a tight embrace. "Now I've got a friend on the inside." He whispered in her ear then threw Rei into a tree.

Serena was about to use her attack on him when a rose flew through the air and scratched the youma's cheek.

"I am Tuxedo Mask, defender of Earth," Darien cried out from behind her. He then tried to jump the youma. He got his ass kicked and fell to the ground. Ami and Serena were both powering up when they heard-

"World Shaking," a deep voice rang out from the opposite side of the youma. That attack slammed him into a tree. Wide-eyed, everyone turned to where the voice had come from. They saw a tall girl with short blond hair, and a shorter girl with long, wavy, aqua hair. Both were wearing sailor uniforms, and the tall one had a big sneer on her face. They both looked extremely smug.

"I can't believe how bad you guys are," the blond said. "It's not even funny."

"Excuse me?" this was from Lita.

"You suck," the girl said. "I'm surprised you haven't been killed yet."

"Oh hell no! No she didn't!" Rei said, trying to stand. "Who is this-, SERENA, WATCH OUT!"

Serena turned, but not in time and the youma backhanded her across the face. She flew through the air and landed next to Rei.

"I just wanted to see how strong you were," the youma said. "I see I don't really have anything to worry about, except maybe you two." He indicated the two unknown sailors. "You were a surprise."

"Who is this fool anyway?" Darien asked, impatient.

"Me?" the youma said. "I'm Keahi, and I'm going to destroy you all. I don't want you dead, I'm going to give you all oblivion, and there's no coming back from that."

With that he disappeared.

"Hmm," said the aqua haired one, "he could be a problem."

"But he's our problem," Ami piped up.

"You must be joking," the blond one said. "As for introductions, I'm Sailor Uranus, and she's Sailor Neptune. And I'm going to offer to train you before you get killed. You're enough of an embarrassment as it is."

"I think they do alright," Darien spoke up.

"NO ONE WAS TALKING TO YOU ROSIE," the Inners (except for Serena) shouted.

"You aren't welcome here and we don't need your help," Rei said, glaring at Darien. "Neither of you," she pointed at Darien and the new scouts.

"Is that true Sailor Moon?" he asked quietly, offering his hand to help her up.

She ignored the hand. "Yes. I'm afraid it is. However," she turned to Uranus and Neptune, "We could use the training you offered. Only those who want to of course," she added.

Uranus looked shocked. "I didn't expect you to take me up on my offer. Just get mad and leave us alone so we could get the job done."

"Wait, Uranus," Neptune said. "You're not in a position to make an offer like that. I'm afraid we'll have to say no at this time."

Serena smiled, "Of course."

Darien was looking shell-shocked. "I need a drink."

Well. Review, please. I totally forgot about a villain, so I made one up. He's related to a past villain. What do you think so far?
