CIRAN SOLAR PRINCE! DISCOVERY OF THE MAMORA NO TSUKI-HOSHI!

(Be welcome, be cheered, be happy, don't be feared. .That sucks.)

Maroko stood in front of the Tsukino's home. "I wonder if Bata is still around." "Maroko?" She turned around and smiled. Chibi Usa gazed at her in amazement. "You're back?" "Yes, I may be here a while." Chibi Usa hugged her. "We missed you! Things are pretty boring without you or Tora." "Is Batafurai still around?" Chibi Usa nodded. "She's still here." Maroko sighed. "Good. Tell the others I'm back, I have someone else I need to find." "Chaos?" Tears swelled up in Maroko's eyes. "No little rabbit. I must go." Maroko ran, quickly as she could. Chibi Usa stared at her confused. "Little rabbit?"

"Aki?" The girl looked up from her book. "Maroko? Where have you been? I had the strangest dream." Maroko smiled. "Yes. Tell me about your dream." "Well, I was kidnapped by these really weird guys and one of them kept hitting on me. Then another guy came and they killed something or me. Strange. I can't seem to remember." Maroko nodded. "Very good." "Oh well." Maroko smiled. "I'll see you at school. Good bye Autumn." She closed her eyes and began to walk away. "Autumn?"

"Maroko, you feeling okay?" "I'm fine Tora. Why?" "Well, you've washed that same widow fifteen times." "Oh." "And we don't have a window glass. You're just cleaning the sill. And. It's quite disturbing." Maroko sighed. "I'm scared Tora. Everything just happened at once. Chaos was killed, and then those Demon Monsters attacked. Now. I'm here and I'm not even sure if my family is okay." Tora nodded. "I know. This has happened far too fast." Maroko picked up Tora. "It's that Nemesis's fault. She's ruined my life." "And mine." "Then revenge shall be met Tora." "Huh?" "We shall get revenge on all she has done to us!" "Finally we're doing things my way!"

Maroko walked out of school with Batafurai. "Are they the ones?" A small boy with red hair and blue eyes and a tabby- calico cat sat on a hill watching them. The cat seemed half asleep. "Elshidi!?" "What? Hey, those to look like the ones! They even have the brooches! Do you remember the dream?" The boy nodded. "Of course I do! There were four girls all dressed in similar uniforms. They were battling the Neo-Dreamers. And, we haven't seen a Neo-Dreamer since!" Elshidi seemed asleep again. The boy sighed. "Your hopeless!"

"Would you please stop calling me Butterfly?" Maroko shook her head. "No, I will not." "Hello." The booth turned around. "Oh, Hello." Bata greeted confused. Maroko smiled. "Hello! I'm Maroko! I think I saw you in my English Class! Yes, this is my original hair!" The boy was a bit confused. "I wasn't going to question your hair." "Ignore her, she hasn't been herself lately." "Oh hush up Butterfly!" "Quit calling me that! By the way, my name is Batafurai, I like to be called Bata, but NOT Butterfly!" "I'm Ciran, this is my real hair."

"Anyway, could you tell me what that is?" He pointed to Maroko's broche. "HENTAI!" Maroko slapped Ciran and pushed him to the ground. "Maroko, he meant your broche." Maroko gasped. "Oh, did you? I'm sorry." She helped Ciran up. "This is a broche. I'm not sure what it does. it just looks nice. What about that?" She pointed to a pendent around Ciran's neck. It was a miniature pendant, surrounded by flames with a circle with a dot in the center. "This? Oh, my uhh, father gave me this." "It's nice." Bata said, examining it closely. Maroko stared at it harder. There was a familiar symbol on it. A small circle with a dot in the center.

Where have I seen that symbol before?

"He was nice." "He was cute." "You really think so?" "Yeah. Did you notice his pendent?" "Yes, it was very lovely." "No, on the pendent, there was a circle with a dot in the center amidst in flames." "So?" "That's the astrology symbol for the sun." "So?" "So, all the Sailor Scouts, every one of them has had the Astrology symbol for their planet somewhere one them." "Maroko-Chan, you're insane today. Go home get some rest. You need some help." Maroko shook her head. "Maroko-Chan, a circle with a dot in it is a very common symbol!" Maroko nodded. "But there's something about him."

"Maroko, Batafurai is right. For one this, he's not a girl." "Shuzika, Mamoru and Tarento aren't girls, but they fight for the Solar Justice!" "True," "And he had a cat with a moon on her head." "Well," "And he did seem to notice us out of everyone!" Tora sat down. "Well, that doesn't mean your right! I'm going to do some spying! You be careful." Tora jumped out the window and ran off.

"My queen, we have targeted Maroko's hiding spot." "Very good." "But, it's a very big area." "And?" "We have not found her specifically." "Why not?" "She is very hard to track.. We have looked all over the city, and not a single person has a power as great as hers. Four are surprisingly close though." "And who are they?" "One is called Usagi, one Chibi Usa," "Queen Usa?" "Yes. Another is called Batafurai." "And the final?" "Ciran."

Tora ran down the streets. She followed Ciran closely. "That ditzy cat hasn't said a thing, let alone that stupid human boy!" Ciran turned around. Tora froze. "Oh, hello there. Have you been following me?" Ciran stooped down and reached out to pet Tora. She bit his hand and ran behind an alley. "Ouch! That's one aggressive cat."

"So, how long again?" "Nine years." "Nine years." "Yes." "So what type of disguise do I have to wear?" "Well, there is this." Cerberus reached behind him and pulled out a white Arabian suit. "I lent this to another lost soul who needed to reclaim himself for his love. Moon Light Knight is what he called himself." "I am not wearing that." "Why not?" "It's hideous! I may be dead, but that doesn't mean I don't get a fashion sense!"

"Well, tough, you wear that! Now, there is one more thing." "What?" "You'll need protection and those energy attacks aren't enough!" "Well, what then?" "There is a sword." "Oh great. Do I have to pull it out of a rock? That's not really my type of thing." "No. I will summon it. But you have to wield it." "So? Is it heavy or something?" "It is remarkably light!" "Then, what's the deal?" "If it comes, and you can use it properly, you will be fine." Cerberus stood up on his powerful back legs and the heads began to yelp in unison. Chaos covered his ears. "Gees, take a singing class!"

The ground began to shake. "REAWAKEMAMORANOTSUKIHOSHI! REAWAKENANDGREETYOURNEWMASTER!" Out of the sky, and small pink cloud appeared and dropped down, hovering just above Chaos's head. "That's it. THAT'S IT!?" "Yes." "I see. How do you wield a cloud?" "You must know if you are to unleash the power!" "Fine." Chaos reached up and tried to grab the cloud. But, it being a cloud, his hand went right threw it. "This seems faintly familiar." He thought for a moment. What did Maroko say about clouds? Well, that they were made out of cotton candy. or cotton was made out of them. What did she do about cotton candy? .She ate it. Chaos reached up and pulled the cloud down. He opened his mouth and ate a piece. Cerberus began to bark. "WHAT ARE YOU DOING!?" "Eating. she's right, it does taste like cotton candy." The cloud exploded. "Look what you did!" Chaos looked around. Nearly everything was drenched in pink. "Wow. What's that ringing noise?" "I don't know. I can hear it too. I bet the entire underworld can!" "No. It's so soft." Chaos looked up. Something hung in the air. "What's that?" Cerberus leapt up and grabbed it out of the air. "A gem." Chaos took the gem from the dog and examined it. "This is it? I thought I got a sword." Chaos threw the gem over his shoulder. "WHAT ARE YOU DOING NOW!?" "I don't know, but I was right about the cloud thing. Maybe it is just a piece of junk-" "THE GEM IS CRACKED!" Chaos looked over his shoulder. Indeed, the gem was snapped in two. "Uh oh."

"Maroko, there's nothing special about that kid." Maroko shook her head. "There is Tora. I know it." "No, I think you just love him." "WHAT!? TORA, HOW COULD YOU SAY SUCH A THING!?" Maroko began to cry. "What!? Quit crying!" Maroko sighed. "Very well. But Tora, I know something about this boy. I know something will happen."

"Attack the heart."

Ciran sat on a hill in the park. Watching girls walk by. "I don't know Elshidi. None of them seem right." The cat shook her head. "What? Oh! How did we get here again?" "Elshidi! I brought you here! We are trying to find those girls I saw in that dream!" "What about that one? Isn't that the one we saw before?" Ciran looked down. Maroko sat by the bridge. "It is."

The ground began to shake. Maroko screamed and clutched to the bridge. Ciran held tightly to the ground but was thrown off the hill. From the top of it, a creator opened from the earth's surface. A stream of magma shot out.

Chaos looked up into the sky. "Something's attacking Earth." "YOU BROKE IT! EARTH IS DOOMED!" "No, Maroko's in trouble. I think Nemesis has followed her to the past." He looked back to the dog. "How soon can I get to Earth?" "Tomorrow at the soonest. For now, all you can do is train and prepare."

Out of the magma arose a warrior. His face could not be seen under his dark red armor. He held a spear in hand and a shield in the other. He roared.

"TSUKI FUSHIGI CHIKARA!!!" Maroko raised her broche over her head and transformed into Sailor Mystery Moon! Mystery Moon then noticed Ciran had been watching her the whole time. "Uh oh." Ciran stared in amazement. "You're one of them. One that I saw in that dream."

"SOLAR ECLIPSE POWER!" Maroko gazed in wonder as Ciran transformed. Orange flames shot up around him from the ground below, dissipated, and revealed him clothed in an orange Tunic, he had orange eyes, and held a large staff, identical to the one on his pendant. Mystery Moon gazed dreamily at him. "And who are you?" "Erm, Well, I'm Ciran; Prince of the Sun!" Mystery Moon nodded. "You need a cuter name. I'm calling you Solar Sailor from now on." "Okay I guess." "Good, you don't want anyone to know who you are. But it may be a bit to late." She giggled. "FIGHT NOW!" The monster roared. Mystery Moon sighed and walked up to the monster. "If you don't mind, I'm trying to have a conversation here so BACK OFF!" The monster got down on his knees. "Yes my queen." Mystery Moon scratched her head. "Queen? No, I am not Nemesis! I am Princess Maroko." The armored warrior rose to his feet and towered above Mystery. "Maroko of the white Moon?" ".Yes." "YOU SHALL PERISH!" He threw his spear at her. Maroko screamed.

"Solar Eclipse Blast!" Ciran cried, hitting his staff to the ground. Where his staff had hit the ground four jets of fire came out and directed themselves at the warrior. The flames hit and the warrior burst into fire. The warrior laughed. And patted his chest plate. "HIYA!" Maroko slammed a frying pan over the back of his helmet. "Oh! But it always works in cartoons." Maroko grabbed his helmet and pulled it off his head. The soldier screamed. Mystery and Ciran gasped. On the soldier's shoulders was nothing. No head, no neck. Just a flap and skin across the shoulders. The soldier screamed and fell to the ground. It sunk in like quicksand and disappeared.

Maroko blushed. "You know, as soon as you leave, I'm telling all my friends." Ciran sighed.

"You won't really. will you?" She smiled. "Well, I will tell Bata-Chan and Usagi-Chan. Maybe Chibi Usa-Chan, but that's okay because they're all scouts too!" "Are they?" "Yup! Usagi is Sailor Moon-" "WHAT!? HER!?" Maroko nodded. "Never would have guessed huh!? Chibi Usa is Sailor Chibi Moon, and Batafurai is Sailor Little Moon!" "Wow. And you're Mystery Moon?" She nodded. "You're the ones who killed the Neo Dreamers, aren't you?" "Yeah." Ciran smiled. "Well, at least I found you all."

FIN!
