Spider-Moon Part 2- Flash back.
The trip to the hotel had been just as boring as the flight to Tokyo. Peter didn't understand why everything on this side of the world had to be so boring in life. Or was it just because he was from another country that everything was made to look like that. But he knew that once he donned the Spider-Man costume that he would get to see the other side of this country's life and he knew that right then and there it wouldn't be so boring. But he also knew that he had to find those so-called Sailor Scouts, and find out what they were all about. He knew that Jay Jonah Jameson, J.J. for short, would love something like them.
As Peter got into his room, he placed his suitcase on the bed and opened it. Just to make sure that he was able to get through customs with his belt and web shooters, he told them that they were about of his camera gear and that they were custom made for it. This was only half-truth since he knew that only the camera on the belt was made for the gear. The costume he had worn under his clothes so that no one would ever be able to see the costume in the suitcase when it went through the x-ray machines. But now that he was in his hotel room, he had made sure to put the do not disturb sign on the door, so that not even the hotel staff would come in. Shucking his clothes off to one side and standing there in full costume, he walked over to the window and looked out over the cityscape. To Peter's amazement the city was very much like New York, but different in a way that all of the people in this city were half the size of the average New Yorker. Pulling the mask on, Peter opened the window and hoped onto the railing that was there. Shooting a line out, he made sure that it was nice and secure before dropping off. He had already placed a Spider-Tracer on the under side of the railing as he leaped onto it. That was to make sure that he could get back to his room with out a problem. Now the only thing he had to deal with was people looking up at a guy with a red and blue suit with web's all over and a giant red spider on his back. As Peter continued to swing through the city, he took note of everything that was there. Amazing. He thought. This place looks just like New York, only on a very different scale big time. As he got closer to the lower parts of the city, he got to see even more details then when he was higher up. Even with his enhanced vision thanks to the spider that bit him. He still wasn't able to see a lot of detail that he was now able to see. The place was amazing to him. Even the people looking up at him as he swung by, the look and even the flashes from the endless cameras that were there. Is it me, he thought. Or does everyone in this country have a camera. I thought they only got them when they traveled out of the country, not in it. But as he continued to swing on, his Spider-Sense was starting to give a little bit of a tug to the back of his head. He knew that something was up and that he had better check it out. As he came back over to an alley that was off to the side, his Spider-Sense starting going even more. It was then that he saw the problem. At first he couldn't understand what was being said, but then he remembered the translator that was given to him by a scientist by the name of Reed Richards. Slipping the translator under his mask and into his ear, he started hearing everything that was being said around him. He knew that if he spoke, the translator would broadcast out what he was saying only translated for him. "You miserable little punk. You knew that money was to go to the boss. Now you're going to have to pay." The first one stated. He had his back to Spider-Man so he of course never even knew that he was there. "Come on, you know what it's like around here, even your boss can understand that. The government came by this morning and took everything. I had no choice." Said the other one that was cowering below the bigger guy. Spider-Man could see that neither of them had even noticed him. But once he saw the gun, he knew that he had to take action. Reacting fast, he shot a line of webbing out and snagged the gun. Not giving a chance. Spider-Man yanked on the gun and pulled it from the big guy's hand. "W-w-what the..." He sputtered. Turning around, he spotted the gun and a web lines going off of it leading up. Looking up, he spotted someone that he never thought that he would ever see. "A demon." The guy stated. Spider-Man looked at him. "Not quite, but then again, I'm not from around here. I'm from the states. New York to be exact." He said as he dropped the gun and fired another shot of webbing nailing the guy right to the wall. "And don't worry; you'll be out of there in an hour, or less depending on how fast the authorities get here." He told the guy. Getting down from his high point on the wall. Spider-Man walked over to the other guy that had been cowering. "Now you don't have to worry any more." He told him. The other guy however had a look on his face a shear terror. "Demon, demon." He said and kept saying rising in volume. After a little bit the guy ran off leaving Spider-Man standing in the alley with his head lowered. After a minute though, he shot a line off and leaped out of there and swung off. Why is it that everyone keeps thinking that I'm something bad when I'm not? He thought as he continued to swing off. At least Mary Jane doesn't have to worry about me around here. She doesn't even know that I happen to be Spider-Man. He continued to swinging around just to try to get his head cleared after that little incident. By the time he got back to the hotel, he had already stopped several robberies and muggings. But his head had gotten no better since he had continued to think about being called a demon. And what hurt the most, was that every time he had saved someone, they had all called him a demon. But he knew that it wouldn't be long till word got around as to who he really was. Either that, or word would get around that there was a demon on the loose. Getting to the rooftop, he looked around the city, Pulling out a map of the area, he read the text carefully. The map had been made in the US so there was no chance that he couldn't understand it since it was all in English. Looking at the area around him he noticed that there was an area that he needed to go to. The Jubun area of Tokyo that he had to go to was where those Sailor Scouts had been spotted. Peter's only problem was that he had no idea what in the world they looked like since no one was ever able to get a picture of them at all. Every time that something had happened they area that it had happened in everyone had run from, even the news crews, or it happened in the dead of night. Slipping the mask back into place, Spider-Man leaped off the building after putting the map back into place. Once he got down to a certain distance from the street, he shot a web line off and arched off towards Jubun area of Tokyo. I hope I find something there. He thought as he continued to swing off. As he continued to swing out, he noticed that the buildings were starting to get lower and lower. Before he knew it, he was swinging from the light posts, but something else had caught his eye. On the building that he was coming up to, there was a poster on the side of the building. It looked almost like what he was searching for, only there was one on the poster and no others. Now last I had heard, he thought. There was more then just one of them. And if that's the case, then where are the other ones. Suddenly his Spider-Sense started going off, and he jumped straight up and latched onto the wall and started heading up to the roof at break neck speed.
As several girls started coming out from the theater, the girls kept going on and on about the film. "That was great Mina; I still can't believe that that wasn't special effects in that film." One with brown hair stated. "You're right; one can't tell that it's actually your own powers doing that." Another with blue hair said.
Spider-Man looked at them. What in the world are they talking about, they can't be the ones that set off my Spider-Sense. He thought. Suddenly a motor cycle came riding up to them. "Amara, what wrong? You look upset." Asked a girl with blonde hair that was tied up into two balls and hair going back from the balls The one named Amara wasn't even looking at the girls Spider-Man realized she was looking right at him. "That's because, he brought me here." She stated and pointed at him. Spider-Man knew that he had to get out of there and fast. Jumping over the side, he shoot a web line out and started to swing away. Amara took notice and started going after him. "What, have you got something to hide?" She yelled after him. Turning into an alley Spider-Man knew that it was here or no where now, he thought as he latched onto a wall. Amara pulled her bike in and looked up to see him on the wall now. Since she had no idea whom in the world he was, she took out her pen and transformed. "Uranus Star Power!" A second later there stood Sailor Uranus. "Well you're not the one I'm looking for, however if you want a fight, that I can certainly handle for you." He said as he jumped off and landed on the ground. Uranus looked at him. "A fight is what you're going to get since you're handling more then you know." Rising up her hand, energy started going into it. "Uranus World...Shaking." She called as she rammed her hand down to the ground letting loose a ball of energy that headed right for Spider-Man. Spider-Man jumped onto the wall again as he watched the energy ball go right by him. "Oh man now I've seen everything." He stated as he jumped off and landed right in front of Uranus and started to web her up. Once that was done, with only her head poking up. He looked at her. "Well that we've got that little fight all wrapped up, can we talk about this more then we were?" He asked her. "Don't you even harm her?" A voice called out behind him. Spider-Man got up and turned to see whose voice it was. From the way the sun was coming down into the alley, he could see every little detail that there was to see. "And you are?" He asked the one with the red balls in her hair. You've got to be kidding me. He thought as he looked at them. There were five girls all with what looked like sailor uniforms on, just like the one that he had webbed up. But they all had different colors; he realized that they might be the ones that he was looking for. His only problem was that he hadn't had time to set up his camera so that he could be able to get picks of him with them at all. The lead one looked at him and went through her motions. "I'm Sailor Moon; I right wrongs and help others in need. Who ever you are, I will punish you." She finished. Spider-Man couldn't believe what he not only was seeing but also hearing. Leaping up onto the wall he looked down at them making sure that he was out of their site. "Look she was the one that started it; I was actually looking for you girls." He said. The one that was dressed in blue had her visor on and was looking at him. "Amazing, he's got all the powers of a spider and more." She said with awe. Spider-Man couldn't believe what was going on here. "Hey don't worry about her; the webbing will dissolve in an hour any way." He told them. Suddenly he remembered the press conference. "But I have a more pressing engagement, so I'll let you girls go for now." He stated as he shot out a web line and swung off. As Spider-Man continued to swing away, he mentally kicked himself in the butt for what had happened back there. I knew that that whole thing should've been handled a lot differently then how it was. He thought. But now he had no time to dwell on that since he was running behind on the press conference that he had to get to. He knew that he could swing back to the hotel and get his thing into a web sack and swing off to the conference to get there in time.
As soon as he got the press conference, he started looking around to find out who was going to be there and more. So far he hadn't spotted anyone at all. Walking over to the press desk. "Peter Parker, Daily Bugle." He said to them, so that he could be able to get his press badge for the event. Once that was done he started looking around and noticed that Amara was there and was looking for him, or was actually looking for Spider-Man. Sheesh that girl doesn't bother to give up does she? He asked himself. After he looked around a few minutes more, he decided to head to where the presses of the world were meeting. The setting that he walked into was something that he thought he would never get. The room was huge with a chandelier in the center of the room with food set off to the side on either side for the press to eat while they waited. He knew that back in the states, they would never have gotten this kind of treatment. Either it was because of what was going on, or it was part of the custom to treat reporters like this. "Don't bother kid." A voice said behind him. Peter turned around and looked at the guy. He could tell that the guy clearly was American. "Why not?" Peter asked. The guy looked at him. "Because the food is only here for looks. They don't expect anyone to ever eat any of this stuff." He told Peter. Now Peter really had no idea what in the world to make of this guy now. But he thought that he would make the best of things anyway. "Peter Parker, Daily Bugle. And you are?" He asked the guy. The guy stuck his hand out towards Peter, which he took. "Eric Marsen, Contra Costa Times. I'm here to find out about the genetics research that's going on right now." Said Eric as he looked at Peter. "Hey wait a minute, aren't you the kid that kept getting those great photos of Spider-Man over in New York?" He asked. Peter nodded; he knew that his photos would get around after a while. The news world was like that, not that he minded at all. "Yeah that's me." He told Eric. Eric looked at him for a second. "Wait a minute, why in the world would you be here, If Spider-Man is no where around here right now?" He asked. Peter looked at the guy and hoped that he didn't discover Peter's secret. "Actually my boss Mr. Jameson wanted me to cover this since I happen to be such a science nut at heart." He told the guy hoping to throw him off. The guy looked at him differently then shook it off. "Oh, well if that's the case, never mind. I guess the next set of photos of Spider-Man won't be taken of you if that's the case." He stated. Peter didn't know how much more of this he was going to be able to take before the guy left. But luckily for Peter, he didn't have to wait long at all. The guy let him be. Peter knew that when it came to the photos. No other photographer in New York would've ever been able to catch a photo of Spider-Man. He would never stay in one spot long enough to be able to get his photo taken. The only reason why there were photos of him in the first place was because of the special camera that was built for his belt. Once the symbol on his belt went across the lens of the camera, it snapped a shot of Spider-Man in action. Suddenly the noise got low as someone came out and went up to the podium. "Ladies and Gentlemen of the press. What you will be seeing after you step through these doors is something that is just the start of the turning point for human kind. The next level of human evolution. Mutants were and are a natural step forward. But with the advances that are being made with today's technology, we get to see a world like no others have. Diseases cured before a person is ever born, defects of today's world literally wiped off the face of the planet. Yes folks, genetic research has actually come this far. Now if you'll just step through the three double doors leading to the main hall, we shall begin the process." The lady that spoke finished as she gestured to the doors. Peter took a second and realized what she had said, Wait a minute did she just say process. But after a second he waved it off. Stepping through the doors to where they were going. The auditorium was like nothing that he had ever seen before in his life. Man they really do make them grand scale here. He thought as he looked at the place. The entire room was made to look like something major could be held there, and he knew that with what they were going to be seeing, it fit perfectly. Other people in the mean time were also gathering, as well that weren't apart of the press field. As Peter watched everything that was going on, he had taken notice of that one girl that had changed before him and someone that she was standing with along with the other girls that he had seen before. Well at least nothing could ever go wrong here. He thought as the lights dimmed and the stage was lit up. "Welcome ladies and gentlemen, to an exhibit that is sure to change the world." A voice boomed over the load speaker. "The future is now and the change is in the very DNA that we have in our selves. Genetics, the next step in human evolution. And here to talk and the future is Dr. Siamoto Kenron." Everyone started clapping as the doctor came out on the stage, but it was Peter's Spider-Sense that started making him wonder what was really going on. Ducking out of the audience, he made his way to a near by closet and started to change. As Spider-Man he ducked slightly back against the back of the crowd but then started crawling up the wall to get a better view of everything that was going to happen. Just my luck that this would happen now. He thought as his Spider-Sense continued to buzz. As Spider-Man continued to go along the roof with no one even taking notice of him. He continued to watch what was going on stage. After all, problem or no problem, he was still working when an explosion rocked the stage area. Once the smoke cleared, a mini-van was on the stage along with a tall red haired girl and a gun. "Your heart crystal please, if you don't mind, and if you do so what." She stated as she pulled the trigger and fired away. The blast hit the doctor right in the chest and went right through him pushing his heart crystal right out the backside. Only difference to this crystal was that it was blue and more circular then the rest was. "Now that's something one doesn't see every day, even in New York." Spider- Man stated from above. Everyone looked up towards him. "Who the heck are you?" Eudial asked, looking at his costume. Spider-Man looked at her. "Well for one thing I'm not your normal run of the mill super hero. The name's Spider-Man." He told her as he stuck his hand out. "And I believe that crystal belongs to someone else." He finished as he shot a line of web out that snagged the crystal and pulled it back to him. Once he had it he shot another line out and swung down to the stage. "I believe that this crystal is going to go right back to where it belongs, somehow." He stated as he looked at the guy. Eudial didn't like where this was going at all. "Dynacron, come out and show this guy out." She shouted. Right from the back of her mini-van, the door opens up and a pink blast shoots out letting a creature come out of the back of the mini-van. "Dyna." It stated as it stood up and started heading towards Spider-Man. "Great this isn't good at all." Spider-Man stated as the creature came towards him. "Jupiter thunder...crash." A voice cried out as a lighting bolt punched into the creature. Spider-Man took that chance and webbed up the feet of the creature. "Ah webbing, shoot and stick." He stated not knowing or understanding what was going on at all. Looking over at where not only the voice came from but also the bolt of lightening, he noticed that those same girls that he had seen before where there. "Great why is it, that it always seems to be under these conditions that I get to meet you girls." He stated as he leaped up onto the wall and stayed there. One of the girls that had jet-black hair and a red version of what the other girls were wearing. "And who in the world are you?" She asked him. Spider-Man looked at her. "Just to let you know, as I've told her and I'll tell you, the name's Spider-Man." He informed the girls. "I just hope that were on the same side away from her." He said point at Eudial. "Since I happen to have this." He finished, producing the Heart Crystal. The one in the long blond big tails looked at it and didn't have a clue as to what to make of that one. "Ah just what is that?" She asked. Sailor Mercury pulled up her visor and started working on it. Spider-Man watched her with great interest. Amazing, they all work together and yet they look totally different from each other. He thought. Suddenly his Spider-Sense started going mad on him. Leaping out of the way in time he was able to shoot a web line out and swing over to the other side of the auditorium just as a red energy blast had hit where he was just at. "Great now who's shooting me?" He asked. "A Heart Crystal is all we're after, and you've got it. I've come to get it from you, I'm Sailor Uranus." Uranus finished. "And if you don't give it up, you'll have a lot to pay for. I'm Sailor Neptune." Neptune stated to him. Suddenly energy started forming around her as she gathered up a blue energy ball of water formed up. "Neptune Deep...Submerge." She shouted as she pushed the energy ball towards Spider- Man. At the speed that the energy ball was traveling at, he hardly had any time at all to dodge the blast; however he was able to do so. "What is this, hunt the spider day?" He asked, as he looked at the girls, he noticed that including the two new ones, that there was several all dressed as Sailors. "Who are you?" He asked. The one with the long blonde pigtails in her hair spoke up. "I'm glade you asked." She started. "Besides having a Heart Crystal that we need to put back, you might be working with her, and if that's the case, I'm Sailor Moon, I will right wrongs and triumph over evil in the name of the moon. And that means you." She stated. Spider-Man couldn't believe what was going on here. "So this is the super heroes they have her in Tokyo. No wonder I only stay in New York." He stated. "But hey I'm not here for the Heart Crystal if that's what you call it. I'm mainly here to talk to you girls." He told them as he tossed the crystal back at them. "If you want this here." At that point everyone got to see what the crystal looked like and it was like nothing that they had ever seen before.
Earlier that day.
Serena couldn't believe her luck, there was a new Sailor V movie coming out, and she was going to be among the first to see it, thanks to that invite that she had gotten. "I still can't believe this." She stated. A groan could be heard right behind her. "Serena we all know by now that you can't believe it." The voice stated. Serena smiled and just kept walking. "Well Rei, I doubt that you would seriously understand the joy of something like this. After all, they've been working on this for quite a while now." She stated to Rei with out turning. "Just give it up Rei; after all, at least it's not Serena that's in the movie." Lita's voice said behind Serena. Lita was right. After all it had been Mina that was in the movie and not Serena. Mina had gotten the part when she walked in as Sailor V to try out the part. No one there had any idea that the real Sailor V would actually show up to protest anyone taking her place in the movie. But when the producers of the film saw her, they didn't care about anyone else taking her role, they only wanted her. Mina had found that out when they had talked to her. "'We only staged this audition so that you might show up. If you hadn't, then we would've hired someone else for the role. But now that you're here, we wanted you to be in the movie.'" They had told her. That had been a little over two years ago, and off and on she had been back to be with her friends and fight with them when was needed. However now that the movie was coming out, Mina had invited all of the girls to come along, as well as Artimis and Luna. Although when the producers tried telling her that they couldn't invite the cats to come along, that's when Mina got ready to shoot the producers with her crescent beam smash. At once they had yielded. "Well here we are." Lita stated as they arrived bringing Serena back to the present. The posters that were out front showed Mina as Sailor V in several different poses. "Man talk about good work." Lita stated as she looked at the posters. "I see you guys made it." A voice called out from their left side. All of the girls turned to see Amy walking towards them. "Of course, do you actually think that we wouldn't?" Rei stated. "After all Serena had practically dragged us here in the first place. "Wouldn't be the first time that she had done that." A female voice spoke from Amy's feet. Serena looked down at Luna. "Luna why are you always against me?" She asked. Luna just looked at her. "Because Serena, it's just plain and simply the truth." The cat said as she jumped on Serena's shoulder. "Come on guys, if we don't hurry Mina's going to wonder what happened to us." Lita stated.
As they entered the theater, Serena was in total awe over everything that was going on. The place was huge; in fact if Serena could remember right, she had never even been in this building at all. "Check this place out guys." She said. "Can you believe this?" She asked them. Rei couldn't believe this place. "You're right Serena." She said as she was looking around. "Now I understand why they would never let you in here." Rei said with a look on her face, seeing that Serena was even hardly paying attention like always. "After all, you'd mess the place up big time if they were to let you in here." She said at last. Serena realized after two seconds what Rei had just said. "I would not." "Would too." "Would not." Before any of the girls knew it, Rei and Serena were back at the fight again. "Hey guys, glad you could make it." Came a voice from in front of them walking towards them. All of them looked over and saw Mina walking towards them. "Well if it isn't movie girl herself, how's it going Mina?" Lita asked her. "Great now that you're here. What do you think of the place?" She asked them. Serena and Rei and now stopped there fighting and were looking right at Mina. "The place looks great, why do you ask Mina?" Serena asked her. Mina couldn't believe that question had even come out. "Do you guys even realize where you're standing?" She asked them. When they all shook their heads. She couldn't believe it. "Guys, this place was on the verge of being torn down. I was able to get the studios to pay for the place and fully restore the entire theater back to the way it was. After all, it was going to be in another month that they were going to tear down the place. But thanks to the Sailor V movie, that's not going to happen." She explained to them. Amy was the first to walk up to her and pat her on the back. "That was very kind of you Mina." She said to her. Mina beamed. "Thanks Amy, after all, a place in need is great indeed." She stated. Everyone groaned. "I believe that's a friend in need is a friend indeed." Amy Corrected. Mina just looked at her. "Whatever." She said as she turned. "Come on guys they're waiting for us in the theater to start the movie." She told them as they walked with her into the theater.
About two hours later Serena and company walked out of the theater raving about the film. "That film was so great Mina; I still can't believe that that was you in that film." Stated Lita as they stopped right out side the theater. They were about to continue on when a lady on a bike stopped right in front of them. All of the girls turned to face the biker as she pulled of her helmet. "Amara, what wrong? You look upset." Serena asked. Amara wasn't even looking at Serena or her friends; instead her face was looking right at a guy above them. "That's because, he brought me here." She stated and pointed at him. Without warning the guy that was above them leaped off and shot a line of something out and started swinging away. Amara took notice and started going after him. "What, have you got something to hide?" She yelled after him. Amara gunned the bike and took off after the person. Serena didn't know what was going on, but she figured that it might have had something to do with the Heart Snatchers. "Come on guys we have to follow them, it might be another Heart Snatcher." She said as she started running after them.
Amara had seen that the person had turned into an alley. Knowing that it was a dead end, she knew that she had him. Amara pulled her bike in and looked up to see him on the wall now. Since she had no idea whom in the world he was, she took out her pen and transformed. "Uranus Planet Power!" A second later there stood Sailor Uranus. "Well you're not the one I'm looking for, however if you want a fight, that I can certainly handle for you." He said as he jumped off and landed on the ground. Uranus looked at him. "A fight is what you're going to get since you're handling more then you know." Raising up her hand, energy started going into it. "Uranus World...Shaking." She called as she rammed her hand down to the ground letting loose a ball of energy that headed right for him.
Serena had heard Amara change before the person, and was sure now that it was a Heart Snatcher. "Better change." She said as she took out her broach. The others took out their pens. "Moon Cosmic Power." "Mars Star Power." "Mercury Star Power." "Jupiter Star Power." "Venus Star Power." Moments later, all of the Sailor Scouts were standing right in the place of where five young girls had been standing before.
Sailor Moon ran into the alley not knowing what she was going to find, but what she found was Sailor Uranus all wrapped up in something that she had no idea about at all. "Don't you even harm her." She called out. The person got up and turned to see whose voice it was. "And you are?" He asked Serena Serena took one look at him and went through her motions. "I'm Sailor Moon, I right wrongs and help others in need. Who ever you are, I will punish you." She finished. Leaping up onto the wall he looked down at them making sure that he was out of their site. "Look she was the one that started it, I was actually looking for you girls." He said. Amy had her visor on and was looking at him. "Amazing, he's got all the powers of a spider and more." She said with awe. "Hey don't worry about her; the webbing will dissolve in an hour any way." He told them. "But I have a more pressing engagement, so I'll let you girls go for now." He stated as he shot out a web line and swung off. Sailor Moon ran over to where Amara was lying on the ground and started to try and help her when it came to getting her out of that stuff that she was in. "Uranus, do you have any idea at all who that was?" She asked her. Amara looked pissed and with good reason. She had never once before gone up against someone like that ever before. "No, but I do have a bad feeling about him." She stated. Mercury in the mean time was still going over the data that she had gotten from her visor and was running it on her computer. "Some how, he's like nothing that we've ever seen before. His powers come from that of a spider, and yet from what my reading were telling me, the spider is also apart of him. I don't understand." She finished. Jupiter was looking at the screen as well but couldn't understand it at all. "Well maybe you can ask him the next time you see him." She said. "Could it be that he might be a Heart Snatcher?" A voice asked above them. Jupiter and Mercury looked up to see Luna and Artimis standing there on a fire escape. "That's just it we don't know, as for what he did to Uranus we really don't know." Jupiter told them. That was the second thing that Mercury was now looking at. "It appears that the substance happens to be artificial. It looks like a spider's webbing, but the computer is telling me that it's not. The only way that I'm ever going to be able to get more information is by going right to the source and that happens to be the one that shot this stuff off in the first place." She said. Either way, Sailor Moon knew at once that they were going to be meeting up again.
Meanwhile down in the sub-basement of witches 5. Professor Tomoe continued working on his latest work. "Hmm, everything seems in order. I'd better give Eudial a call and let her know that her heart snatcher is ready." He stated as he picked up the phone. The phone rang on the other end for about a second before being answered. "Witches 5, Eudial here." Came the female voice on the other side. Tomoe still didn't understand why he still worked with her at all. After all the times that she had failed when it came to getting heart crystals. "Tomoe here. Have you gotten someone yet?" He asked her. On the other side Eudial was bringing up her latest findings on her computer that she worked at. "As a matter of fact professor I have. His name is Dr. Siamoto Kenron, and he'll be presenting a press conference on genetics this after noon." She informed him. Tomoe liked the sound of that. "Good, then this Heart Snatcher is just the right kind for the job then." He stated as he started laughing. That was the one thing that Eudial couldn't stand was his laughter, but she would put up with it in order to be able to continue getting the chance to get Heart Crystals for the professor.
Back at the temple, Amy was getting ready for the conference that was going to be taking place. Lita and Mina were talking about the latest cute guy. Rei was reading something, and Serena was doing what she always did and that was snooze. The last person to show was Rini, and she was looking over Rei's shoulder at what she was reading. Suddenly Amy closed the book that she was studying and put it down, which got everyone's attention. "It's time." She said as she got up. Serena who had just woken up as looking at her with a half awake look. "Time for what Amy?" She asked totally out of it. "I believe that it's time for us to go with Amy to the science conference." Rei said as she put her book down. "Well if that's the case then, it looks like you're going to be heading home Rini." Serena said as she was now fully awake, but you couldn't tell by looking at her. "Oh, come on Serena. I never get to go with you guys." She cried. "No, it's not for little kids got it." That had been the end of it at least a half-hour ago as they walked towards where the conference was going to be taking place in the middle of downtown Tokyo. Serena had been forced to carry Rini kicking and screaming all the way back home, and then had to catch up with the rest of them. Once they got there, the entire place was crowded. Serena didn't have a clue as to why all of these people would even be interested in this stuff, she sure wasn't. But she knew that for Amy, she would be there for her friend no matter what. Once inside they took a look around and still couldn't believe the size of the place. "So what are you guys doing here?" A voice asked behind them. Serena turned to see Amara once she heard the voice. "Amara, Hi. Where here for Amy. She's one of the students that's been working on this project for a while now. We came here after we left the movie that Mina is staring in." Serena told her. "Why are you here?" She asked her. Amara didn't know what to say. She couldn't say that she was here for Heart Snatchers since she believed that they had no idea about them at all. "Me and Michelle have an interest in this. After all it's supposed to be the next wave of the future." She told her. "But I didn't think that you would be interested in the future since you're only concerned about Darien." She stated with a slight smirk. Serena fumed at that remark, but said nothing. The girls instead walked down to where Amy was standing waiting for them.
Eudial had arrived at the press conference at least thirty minutes before it had started. Her target was the professor that was going to be speaking there. She had calculated it down on her computer that he was the greatest target that they were going to get when it came to finding the three talismans. I just hope that this one doesn't mess up again, like all the rest. She thought as she looked around for a good spot to hide till it was time.
"Welcome ladies and gentlemen, to an exhibit that is sure to change the world." A voice boomed over the load speaker. "The future is now and the change is in the very DNA that we have in our selves. Genetics, the next step in human evolution. And here to talk and the future is Dr. Siamoto Kenron."
Everyone started clapping as the doctor came out on the stage, Michelle was the first to notice. "Amara, Eudial's here, it's the doctor. The heart snatchers are going after the doctor." She told her quickly and quietly. Both Michelle and Amara ducked out and went to go transform.
As the doctor continued to talk, Amy was listening intently as Serena looked around. "Talk about a snooze." She stated to her self. Rei turned to her. "Hush Serena, this is really important to Amy. After all with Amy studying to become a doctor, she'll need to know this and..." But Rei never got to finish her sentence when an explosion rocked the stage area. Once the smoke cleared, a mini-van was on the stage along with a tall red haired girl and a gun. "Your heart crystal please, if you don't mind, and if you do so what." She stated as she pulled the trigger and fired away. The blast hit the doctor right in the chest and went right through him pushing his heart crystal right out the backside. Only difference to this crystal was that it was blue and more circular then the rest was.
Serena and the girls knew what this meant. Once they all got outside they transformed and were about to head back in till they noticed that security was in the middle of notifying the police. "We'd better hurry guys, I don't think this time that we'll get all of the time that we need." Amy said as they went back in. Once they were back inside, they all took notice of the same guy that they had meet before sticking to the wall off to Eudial's right. The monster was already out of the box and had gotten stuck to the floor thanks to what the guy had put there in the first place. "Jupiter thunder...crash." Jupiter cried out as she punched a lighting bolt into the creature. The guy took that chance and webbed up the feet of the creature. "Ah webbing, shoot and stick." He stated, in what sounded like a quip. "Great why is it, that it always seems to be under these conditions that I get to meet you girls." He stated. Sailor Mars looked up at him since it was her, Sailor Mercury, Sailor Jupiter, Sailor Venus and Sailor Moon were all standing there. "And who in the world are you?" Mars asked him. He looked right at her. "Just to let you know, I've told her and I'll tell you, the name's Spider-Man." He informed the girls. "I just hope that were on the same side away from her." He said point at Eudial. "Since I happen to have this." He finished, producing the Heart Crystal. Sailor Moon didn't have a clue as to what to make of that one. "Ah just what is that?" She asked. Sailor Mercury pulled up her visor and started working on it. Spider-Man watched her with great interest. Amazing, they all work together and yet they look totally different from each other. He thought. Suddenly his Spider-Sense started going mad on him. Leaping out of the way in time he was able to shoot a web line out and swing over to the other side of the auditorium just as a red energy blast had hit where he was just at. "Great now who's shooting me?" He asked. "A Heart Crystal is all we're after, and you've got it. I've come to get it from you, I'm Sailor Uranus." Uranus finished. "And if you don't give it up, you'll have a lot to pay for. I'm Sailor Neptune." Neptune stated to him. Suddenly energy started forming around her as she gathered up a blue energy ball of water formed up. "Neptune Deep...Submerge." She shouted as she pushed the energy ball towards Spider- Man. At the speed that the energy ball was traveling at, she hardly had any time at all to dodge the blast. However he was able to do so. "What is this, hunt the spider day?" He asked. As he looked at the girls, he noticed that including the two new ones, that there was several all dressed as Sailors. "Who are you?" He asked. Sailor Moon took that as her usual cue. "I'm glade you asked." She stated. "Besides having a Heart Crystal that we need to put back, you might be working with her, and if that's the case, I'm Sailor Moon, I will right wrongs and triumph over evil in the name of the moon. And that means you." She stated. Spider-Man couldn't believe what was going on here. "So this is the super heroes they have her in Tokyo. No wonder I only stay in New York." He stated. "But hey I'm not here for the Heart Crystal if that's what you call it. I'm mainly here to talk to you girls." He told them as he tossed the crystal back at them. "If you want this here." At that point everyone got to see what the crystal looked like and it was like nothing that they had ever seen before.
To Be Continued...
Next up Spider-Moon Chapter 3 – Information Gathered and Secrets Reviled.
The trip to the hotel had been just as boring as the flight to Tokyo. Peter didn't understand why everything on this side of the world had to be so boring in life. Or was it just because he was from another country that everything was made to look like that. But he knew that once he donned the Spider-Man costume that he would get to see the other side of this country's life and he knew that right then and there it wouldn't be so boring. But he also knew that he had to find those so-called Sailor Scouts, and find out what they were all about. He knew that Jay Jonah Jameson, J.J. for short, would love something like them.
As Peter got into his room, he placed his suitcase on the bed and opened it. Just to make sure that he was able to get through customs with his belt and web shooters, he told them that they were about of his camera gear and that they were custom made for it. This was only half-truth since he knew that only the camera on the belt was made for the gear. The costume he had worn under his clothes so that no one would ever be able to see the costume in the suitcase when it went through the x-ray machines. But now that he was in his hotel room, he had made sure to put the do not disturb sign on the door, so that not even the hotel staff would come in. Shucking his clothes off to one side and standing there in full costume, he walked over to the window and looked out over the cityscape. To Peter's amazement the city was very much like New York, but different in a way that all of the people in this city were half the size of the average New Yorker. Pulling the mask on, Peter opened the window and hoped onto the railing that was there. Shooting a line out, he made sure that it was nice and secure before dropping off. He had already placed a Spider-Tracer on the under side of the railing as he leaped onto it. That was to make sure that he could get back to his room with out a problem. Now the only thing he had to deal with was people looking up at a guy with a red and blue suit with web's all over and a giant red spider on his back. As Peter continued to swing through the city, he took note of everything that was there. Amazing. He thought. This place looks just like New York, only on a very different scale big time. As he got closer to the lower parts of the city, he got to see even more details then when he was higher up. Even with his enhanced vision thanks to the spider that bit him. He still wasn't able to see a lot of detail that he was now able to see. The place was amazing to him. Even the people looking up at him as he swung by, the look and even the flashes from the endless cameras that were there. Is it me, he thought. Or does everyone in this country have a camera. I thought they only got them when they traveled out of the country, not in it. But as he continued to swing on, his Spider-Sense was starting to give a little bit of a tug to the back of his head. He knew that something was up and that he had better check it out. As he came back over to an alley that was off to the side, his Spider-Sense starting going even more. It was then that he saw the problem. At first he couldn't understand what was being said, but then he remembered the translator that was given to him by a scientist by the name of Reed Richards. Slipping the translator under his mask and into his ear, he started hearing everything that was being said around him. He knew that if he spoke, the translator would broadcast out what he was saying only translated for him. "You miserable little punk. You knew that money was to go to the boss. Now you're going to have to pay." The first one stated. He had his back to Spider-Man so he of course never even knew that he was there. "Come on, you know what it's like around here, even your boss can understand that. The government came by this morning and took everything. I had no choice." Said the other one that was cowering below the bigger guy. Spider-Man could see that neither of them had even noticed him. But once he saw the gun, he knew that he had to take action. Reacting fast, he shot a line of webbing out and snagged the gun. Not giving a chance. Spider-Man yanked on the gun and pulled it from the big guy's hand. "W-w-what the..." He sputtered. Turning around, he spotted the gun and a web lines going off of it leading up. Looking up, he spotted someone that he never thought that he would ever see. "A demon." The guy stated. Spider-Man looked at him. "Not quite, but then again, I'm not from around here. I'm from the states. New York to be exact." He said as he dropped the gun and fired another shot of webbing nailing the guy right to the wall. "And don't worry; you'll be out of there in an hour, or less depending on how fast the authorities get here." He told the guy. Getting down from his high point on the wall. Spider-Man walked over to the other guy that had been cowering. "Now you don't have to worry any more." He told him. The other guy however had a look on his face a shear terror. "Demon, demon." He said and kept saying rising in volume. After a little bit the guy ran off leaving Spider-Man standing in the alley with his head lowered. After a minute though, he shot a line off and leaped out of there and swung off. Why is it that everyone keeps thinking that I'm something bad when I'm not? He thought as he continued to swing off. At least Mary Jane doesn't have to worry about me around here. She doesn't even know that I happen to be Spider-Man. He continued to swinging around just to try to get his head cleared after that little incident. By the time he got back to the hotel, he had already stopped several robberies and muggings. But his head had gotten no better since he had continued to think about being called a demon. And what hurt the most, was that every time he had saved someone, they had all called him a demon. But he knew that it wouldn't be long till word got around as to who he really was. Either that, or word would get around that there was a demon on the loose. Getting to the rooftop, he looked around the city, Pulling out a map of the area, he read the text carefully. The map had been made in the US so there was no chance that he couldn't understand it since it was all in English. Looking at the area around him he noticed that there was an area that he needed to go to. The Jubun area of Tokyo that he had to go to was where those Sailor Scouts had been spotted. Peter's only problem was that he had no idea what in the world they looked like since no one was ever able to get a picture of them at all. Every time that something had happened they area that it had happened in everyone had run from, even the news crews, or it happened in the dead of night. Slipping the mask back into place, Spider-Man leaped off the building after putting the map back into place. Once he got down to a certain distance from the street, he shot a web line off and arched off towards Jubun area of Tokyo. I hope I find something there. He thought as he continued to swing off. As he continued to swing out, he noticed that the buildings were starting to get lower and lower. Before he knew it, he was swinging from the light posts, but something else had caught his eye. On the building that he was coming up to, there was a poster on the side of the building. It looked almost like what he was searching for, only there was one on the poster and no others. Now last I had heard, he thought. There was more then just one of them. And if that's the case, then where are the other ones. Suddenly his Spider-Sense started going off, and he jumped straight up and latched onto the wall and started heading up to the roof at break neck speed.
As several girls started coming out from the theater, the girls kept going on and on about the film. "That was great Mina; I still can't believe that that wasn't special effects in that film." One with brown hair stated. "You're right; one can't tell that it's actually your own powers doing that." Another with blue hair said.
Spider-Man looked at them. What in the world are they talking about, they can't be the ones that set off my Spider-Sense. He thought. Suddenly a motor cycle came riding up to them. "Amara, what wrong? You look upset." Asked a girl with blonde hair that was tied up into two balls and hair going back from the balls The one named Amara wasn't even looking at the girls Spider-Man realized she was looking right at him. "That's because, he brought me here." She stated and pointed at him. Spider-Man knew that he had to get out of there and fast. Jumping over the side, he shoot a web line out and started to swing away. Amara took notice and started going after him. "What, have you got something to hide?" She yelled after him. Turning into an alley Spider-Man knew that it was here or no where now, he thought as he latched onto a wall. Amara pulled her bike in and looked up to see him on the wall now. Since she had no idea whom in the world he was, she took out her pen and transformed. "Uranus Star Power!" A second later there stood Sailor Uranus. "Well you're not the one I'm looking for, however if you want a fight, that I can certainly handle for you." He said as he jumped off and landed on the ground. Uranus looked at him. "A fight is what you're going to get since you're handling more then you know." Rising up her hand, energy started going into it. "Uranus World...Shaking." She called as she rammed her hand down to the ground letting loose a ball of energy that headed right for Spider-Man. Spider-Man jumped onto the wall again as he watched the energy ball go right by him. "Oh man now I've seen everything." He stated as he jumped off and landed right in front of Uranus and started to web her up. Once that was done, with only her head poking up. He looked at her. "Well that we've got that little fight all wrapped up, can we talk about this more then we were?" He asked her. "Don't you even harm her?" A voice called out behind him. Spider-Man got up and turned to see whose voice it was. From the way the sun was coming down into the alley, he could see every little detail that there was to see. "And you are?" He asked the one with the red balls in her hair. You've got to be kidding me. He thought as he looked at them. There were five girls all with what looked like sailor uniforms on, just like the one that he had webbed up. But they all had different colors; he realized that they might be the ones that he was looking for. His only problem was that he hadn't had time to set up his camera so that he could be able to get picks of him with them at all. The lead one looked at him and went through her motions. "I'm Sailor Moon; I right wrongs and help others in need. Who ever you are, I will punish you." She finished. Spider-Man couldn't believe what he not only was seeing but also hearing. Leaping up onto the wall he looked down at them making sure that he was out of their site. "Look she was the one that started it; I was actually looking for you girls." He said. The one that was dressed in blue had her visor on and was looking at him. "Amazing, he's got all the powers of a spider and more." She said with awe. Spider-Man couldn't believe what was going on here. "Hey don't worry about her; the webbing will dissolve in an hour any way." He told them. Suddenly he remembered the press conference. "But I have a more pressing engagement, so I'll let you girls go for now." He stated as he shot out a web line and swung off. As Spider-Man continued to swing away, he mentally kicked himself in the butt for what had happened back there. I knew that that whole thing should've been handled a lot differently then how it was. He thought. But now he had no time to dwell on that since he was running behind on the press conference that he had to get to. He knew that he could swing back to the hotel and get his thing into a web sack and swing off to the conference to get there in time.
As soon as he got the press conference, he started looking around to find out who was going to be there and more. So far he hadn't spotted anyone at all. Walking over to the press desk. "Peter Parker, Daily Bugle." He said to them, so that he could be able to get his press badge for the event. Once that was done he started looking around and noticed that Amara was there and was looking for him, or was actually looking for Spider-Man. Sheesh that girl doesn't bother to give up does she? He asked himself. After he looked around a few minutes more, he decided to head to where the presses of the world were meeting. The setting that he walked into was something that he thought he would never get. The room was huge with a chandelier in the center of the room with food set off to the side on either side for the press to eat while they waited. He knew that back in the states, they would never have gotten this kind of treatment. Either it was because of what was going on, or it was part of the custom to treat reporters like this. "Don't bother kid." A voice said behind him. Peter turned around and looked at the guy. He could tell that the guy clearly was American. "Why not?" Peter asked. The guy looked at him. "Because the food is only here for looks. They don't expect anyone to ever eat any of this stuff." He told Peter. Now Peter really had no idea what in the world to make of this guy now. But he thought that he would make the best of things anyway. "Peter Parker, Daily Bugle. And you are?" He asked the guy. The guy stuck his hand out towards Peter, which he took. "Eric Marsen, Contra Costa Times. I'm here to find out about the genetics research that's going on right now." Said Eric as he looked at Peter. "Hey wait a minute, aren't you the kid that kept getting those great photos of Spider-Man over in New York?" He asked. Peter nodded; he knew that his photos would get around after a while. The news world was like that, not that he minded at all. "Yeah that's me." He told Eric. Eric looked at him for a second. "Wait a minute, why in the world would you be here, If Spider-Man is no where around here right now?" He asked. Peter looked at the guy and hoped that he didn't discover Peter's secret. "Actually my boss Mr. Jameson wanted me to cover this since I happen to be such a science nut at heart." He told the guy hoping to throw him off. The guy looked at him differently then shook it off. "Oh, well if that's the case, never mind. I guess the next set of photos of Spider-Man won't be taken of you if that's the case." He stated. Peter didn't know how much more of this he was going to be able to take before the guy left. But luckily for Peter, he didn't have to wait long at all. The guy let him be. Peter knew that when it came to the photos. No other photographer in New York would've ever been able to catch a photo of Spider-Man. He would never stay in one spot long enough to be able to get his photo taken. The only reason why there were photos of him in the first place was because of the special camera that was built for his belt. Once the symbol on his belt went across the lens of the camera, it snapped a shot of Spider-Man in action. Suddenly the noise got low as someone came out and went up to the podium. "Ladies and Gentlemen of the press. What you will be seeing after you step through these doors is something that is just the start of the turning point for human kind. The next level of human evolution. Mutants were and are a natural step forward. But with the advances that are being made with today's technology, we get to see a world like no others have. Diseases cured before a person is ever born, defects of today's world literally wiped off the face of the planet. Yes folks, genetic research has actually come this far. Now if you'll just step through the three double doors leading to the main hall, we shall begin the process." The lady that spoke finished as she gestured to the doors. Peter took a second and realized what she had said, Wait a minute did she just say process. But after a second he waved it off. Stepping through the doors to where they were going. The auditorium was like nothing that he had ever seen before in his life. Man they really do make them grand scale here. He thought as he looked at the place. The entire room was made to look like something major could be held there, and he knew that with what they were going to be seeing, it fit perfectly. Other people in the mean time were also gathering, as well that weren't apart of the press field. As Peter watched everything that was going on, he had taken notice of that one girl that had changed before him and someone that she was standing with along with the other girls that he had seen before. Well at least nothing could ever go wrong here. He thought as the lights dimmed and the stage was lit up. "Welcome ladies and gentlemen, to an exhibit that is sure to change the world." A voice boomed over the load speaker. "The future is now and the change is in the very DNA that we have in our selves. Genetics, the next step in human evolution. And here to talk and the future is Dr. Siamoto Kenron." Everyone started clapping as the doctor came out on the stage, but it was Peter's Spider-Sense that started making him wonder what was really going on. Ducking out of the audience, he made his way to a near by closet and started to change. As Spider-Man he ducked slightly back against the back of the crowd but then started crawling up the wall to get a better view of everything that was going to happen. Just my luck that this would happen now. He thought as his Spider-Sense continued to buzz. As Spider-Man continued to go along the roof with no one even taking notice of him. He continued to watch what was going on stage. After all, problem or no problem, he was still working when an explosion rocked the stage area. Once the smoke cleared, a mini-van was on the stage along with a tall red haired girl and a gun. "Your heart crystal please, if you don't mind, and if you do so what." She stated as she pulled the trigger and fired away. The blast hit the doctor right in the chest and went right through him pushing his heart crystal right out the backside. Only difference to this crystal was that it was blue and more circular then the rest was. "Now that's something one doesn't see every day, even in New York." Spider- Man stated from above. Everyone looked up towards him. "Who the heck are you?" Eudial asked, looking at his costume. Spider-Man looked at her. "Well for one thing I'm not your normal run of the mill super hero. The name's Spider-Man." He told her as he stuck his hand out. "And I believe that crystal belongs to someone else." He finished as he shot a line of web out that snagged the crystal and pulled it back to him. Once he had it he shot another line out and swung down to the stage. "I believe that this crystal is going to go right back to where it belongs, somehow." He stated as he looked at the guy. Eudial didn't like where this was going at all. "Dynacron, come out and show this guy out." She shouted. Right from the back of her mini-van, the door opens up and a pink blast shoots out letting a creature come out of the back of the mini-van. "Dyna." It stated as it stood up and started heading towards Spider-Man. "Great this isn't good at all." Spider-Man stated as the creature came towards him. "Jupiter thunder...crash." A voice cried out as a lighting bolt punched into the creature. Spider-Man took that chance and webbed up the feet of the creature. "Ah webbing, shoot and stick." He stated not knowing or understanding what was going on at all. Looking over at where not only the voice came from but also the bolt of lightening, he noticed that those same girls that he had seen before where there. "Great why is it, that it always seems to be under these conditions that I get to meet you girls." He stated as he leaped up onto the wall and stayed there. One of the girls that had jet-black hair and a red version of what the other girls were wearing. "And who in the world are you?" She asked him. Spider-Man looked at her. "Just to let you know, as I've told her and I'll tell you, the name's Spider-Man." He informed the girls. "I just hope that were on the same side away from her." He said point at Eudial. "Since I happen to have this." He finished, producing the Heart Crystal. The one in the long blond big tails looked at it and didn't have a clue as to what to make of that one. "Ah just what is that?" She asked. Sailor Mercury pulled up her visor and started working on it. Spider-Man watched her with great interest. Amazing, they all work together and yet they look totally different from each other. He thought. Suddenly his Spider-Sense started going mad on him. Leaping out of the way in time he was able to shoot a web line out and swing over to the other side of the auditorium just as a red energy blast had hit where he was just at. "Great now who's shooting me?" He asked. "A Heart Crystal is all we're after, and you've got it. I've come to get it from you, I'm Sailor Uranus." Uranus finished. "And if you don't give it up, you'll have a lot to pay for. I'm Sailor Neptune." Neptune stated to him. Suddenly energy started forming around her as she gathered up a blue energy ball of water formed up. "Neptune Deep...Submerge." She shouted as she pushed the energy ball towards Spider- Man. At the speed that the energy ball was traveling at, he hardly had any time at all to dodge the blast; however he was able to do so. "What is this, hunt the spider day?" He asked, as he looked at the girls, he noticed that including the two new ones, that there was several all dressed as Sailors. "Who are you?" He asked. The one with the long blonde pigtails in her hair spoke up. "I'm glade you asked." She started. "Besides having a Heart Crystal that we need to put back, you might be working with her, and if that's the case, I'm Sailor Moon, I will right wrongs and triumph over evil in the name of the moon. And that means you." She stated. Spider-Man couldn't believe what was going on here. "So this is the super heroes they have her in Tokyo. No wonder I only stay in New York." He stated. "But hey I'm not here for the Heart Crystal if that's what you call it. I'm mainly here to talk to you girls." He told them as he tossed the crystal back at them. "If you want this here." At that point everyone got to see what the crystal looked like and it was like nothing that they had ever seen before.
Earlier that day.
Serena couldn't believe her luck, there was a new Sailor V movie coming out, and she was going to be among the first to see it, thanks to that invite that she had gotten. "I still can't believe this." She stated. A groan could be heard right behind her. "Serena we all know by now that you can't believe it." The voice stated. Serena smiled and just kept walking. "Well Rei, I doubt that you would seriously understand the joy of something like this. After all, they've been working on this for quite a while now." She stated to Rei with out turning. "Just give it up Rei; after all, at least it's not Serena that's in the movie." Lita's voice said behind Serena. Lita was right. After all it had been Mina that was in the movie and not Serena. Mina had gotten the part when she walked in as Sailor V to try out the part. No one there had any idea that the real Sailor V would actually show up to protest anyone taking her place in the movie. But when the producers of the film saw her, they didn't care about anyone else taking her role, they only wanted her. Mina had found that out when they had talked to her. "'We only staged this audition so that you might show up. If you hadn't, then we would've hired someone else for the role. But now that you're here, we wanted you to be in the movie.'" They had told her. That had been a little over two years ago, and off and on she had been back to be with her friends and fight with them when was needed. However now that the movie was coming out, Mina had invited all of the girls to come along, as well as Artimis and Luna. Although when the producers tried telling her that they couldn't invite the cats to come along, that's when Mina got ready to shoot the producers with her crescent beam smash. At once they had yielded. "Well here we are." Lita stated as they arrived bringing Serena back to the present. The posters that were out front showed Mina as Sailor V in several different poses. "Man talk about good work." Lita stated as she looked at the posters. "I see you guys made it." A voice called out from their left side. All of the girls turned to see Amy walking towards them. "Of course, do you actually think that we wouldn't?" Rei stated. "After all Serena had practically dragged us here in the first place. "Wouldn't be the first time that she had done that." A female voice spoke from Amy's feet. Serena looked down at Luna. "Luna why are you always against me?" She asked. Luna just looked at her. "Because Serena, it's just plain and simply the truth." The cat said as she jumped on Serena's shoulder. "Come on guys, if we don't hurry Mina's going to wonder what happened to us." Lita stated.
As they entered the theater, Serena was in total awe over everything that was going on. The place was huge; in fact if Serena could remember right, she had never even been in this building at all. "Check this place out guys." She said. "Can you believe this?" She asked them. Rei couldn't believe this place. "You're right Serena." She said as she was looking around. "Now I understand why they would never let you in here." Rei said with a look on her face, seeing that Serena was even hardly paying attention like always. "After all, you'd mess the place up big time if they were to let you in here." She said at last. Serena realized after two seconds what Rei had just said. "I would not." "Would too." "Would not." Before any of the girls knew it, Rei and Serena were back at the fight again. "Hey guys, glad you could make it." Came a voice from in front of them walking towards them. All of them looked over and saw Mina walking towards them. "Well if it isn't movie girl herself, how's it going Mina?" Lita asked her. "Great now that you're here. What do you think of the place?" She asked them. Serena and Rei and now stopped there fighting and were looking right at Mina. "The place looks great, why do you ask Mina?" Serena asked her. Mina couldn't believe that question had even come out. "Do you guys even realize where you're standing?" She asked them. When they all shook their heads. She couldn't believe it. "Guys, this place was on the verge of being torn down. I was able to get the studios to pay for the place and fully restore the entire theater back to the way it was. After all, it was going to be in another month that they were going to tear down the place. But thanks to the Sailor V movie, that's not going to happen." She explained to them. Amy was the first to walk up to her and pat her on the back. "That was very kind of you Mina." She said to her. Mina beamed. "Thanks Amy, after all, a place in need is great indeed." She stated. Everyone groaned. "I believe that's a friend in need is a friend indeed." Amy Corrected. Mina just looked at her. "Whatever." She said as she turned. "Come on guys they're waiting for us in the theater to start the movie." She told them as they walked with her into the theater.
About two hours later Serena and company walked out of the theater raving about the film. "That film was so great Mina; I still can't believe that that was you in that film." Stated Lita as they stopped right out side the theater. They were about to continue on when a lady on a bike stopped right in front of them. All of the girls turned to face the biker as she pulled of her helmet. "Amara, what wrong? You look upset." Serena asked. Amara wasn't even looking at Serena or her friends; instead her face was looking right at a guy above them. "That's because, he brought me here." She stated and pointed at him. Without warning the guy that was above them leaped off and shot a line of something out and started swinging away. Amara took notice and started going after him. "What, have you got something to hide?" She yelled after him. Amara gunned the bike and took off after the person. Serena didn't know what was going on, but she figured that it might have had something to do with the Heart Snatchers. "Come on guys we have to follow them, it might be another Heart Snatcher." She said as she started running after them.
Amara had seen that the person had turned into an alley. Knowing that it was a dead end, she knew that she had him. Amara pulled her bike in and looked up to see him on the wall now. Since she had no idea whom in the world he was, she took out her pen and transformed. "Uranus Planet Power!" A second later there stood Sailor Uranus. "Well you're not the one I'm looking for, however if you want a fight, that I can certainly handle for you." He said as he jumped off and landed on the ground. Uranus looked at him. "A fight is what you're going to get since you're handling more then you know." Raising up her hand, energy started going into it. "Uranus World...Shaking." She called as she rammed her hand down to the ground letting loose a ball of energy that headed right for him.
Serena had heard Amara change before the person, and was sure now that it was a Heart Snatcher. "Better change." She said as she took out her broach. The others took out their pens. "Moon Cosmic Power." "Mars Star Power." "Mercury Star Power." "Jupiter Star Power." "Venus Star Power." Moments later, all of the Sailor Scouts were standing right in the place of where five young girls had been standing before.
Sailor Moon ran into the alley not knowing what she was going to find, but what she found was Sailor Uranus all wrapped up in something that she had no idea about at all. "Don't you even harm her." She called out. The person got up and turned to see whose voice it was. "And you are?" He asked Serena Serena took one look at him and went through her motions. "I'm Sailor Moon, I right wrongs and help others in need. Who ever you are, I will punish you." She finished. Leaping up onto the wall he looked down at them making sure that he was out of their site. "Look she was the one that started it, I was actually looking for you girls." He said. Amy had her visor on and was looking at him. "Amazing, he's got all the powers of a spider and more." She said with awe. "Hey don't worry about her; the webbing will dissolve in an hour any way." He told them. "But I have a more pressing engagement, so I'll let you girls go for now." He stated as he shot out a web line and swung off. Sailor Moon ran over to where Amara was lying on the ground and started to try and help her when it came to getting her out of that stuff that she was in. "Uranus, do you have any idea at all who that was?" She asked her. Amara looked pissed and with good reason. She had never once before gone up against someone like that ever before. "No, but I do have a bad feeling about him." She stated. Mercury in the mean time was still going over the data that she had gotten from her visor and was running it on her computer. "Some how, he's like nothing that we've ever seen before. His powers come from that of a spider, and yet from what my reading were telling me, the spider is also apart of him. I don't understand." She finished. Jupiter was looking at the screen as well but couldn't understand it at all. "Well maybe you can ask him the next time you see him." She said. "Could it be that he might be a Heart Snatcher?" A voice asked above them. Jupiter and Mercury looked up to see Luna and Artimis standing there on a fire escape. "That's just it we don't know, as for what he did to Uranus we really don't know." Jupiter told them. That was the second thing that Mercury was now looking at. "It appears that the substance happens to be artificial. It looks like a spider's webbing, but the computer is telling me that it's not. The only way that I'm ever going to be able to get more information is by going right to the source and that happens to be the one that shot this stuff off in the first place." She said. Either way, Sailor Moon knew at once that they were going to be meeting up again.
Meanwhile down in the sub-basement of witches 5. Professor Tomoe continued working on his latest work. "Hmm, everything seems in order. I'd better give Eudial a call and let her know that her heart snatcher is ready." He stated as he picked up the phone. The phone rang on the other end for about a second before being answered. "Witches 5, Eudial here." Came the female voice on the other side. Tomoe still didn't understand why he still worked with her at all. After all the times that she had failed when it came to getting heart crystals. "Tomoe here. Have you gotten someone yet?" He asked her. On the other side Eudial was bringing up her latest findings on her computer that she worked at. "As a matter of fact professor I have. His name is Dr. Siamoto Kenron, and he'll be presenting a press conference on genetics this after noon." She informed him. Tomoe liked the sound of that. "Good, then this Heart Snatcher is just the right kind for the job then." He stated as he started laughing. That was the one thing that Eudial couldn't stand was his laughter, but she would put up with it in order to be able to continue getting the chance to get Heart Crystals for the professor.
Back at the temple, Amy was getting ready for the conference that was going to be taking place. Lita and Mina were talking about the latest cute guy. Rei was reading something, and Serena was doing what she always did and that was snooze. The last person to show was Rini, and she was looking over Rei's shoulder at what she was reading. Suddenly Amy closed the book that she was studying and put it down, which got everyone's attention. "It's time." She said as she got up. Serena who had just woken up as looking at her with a half awake look. "Time for what Amy?" She asked totally out of it. "I believe that it's time for us to go with Amy to the science conference." Rei said as she put her book down. "Well if that's the case then, it looks like you're going to be heading home Rini." Serena said as she was now fully awake, but you couldn't tell by looking at her. "Oh, come on Serena. I never get to go with you guys." She cried. "No, it's not for little kids got it." That had been the end of it at least a half-hour ago as they walked towards where the conference was going to be taking place in the middle of downtown Tokyo. Serena had been forced to carry Rini kicking and screaming all the way back home, and then had to catch up with the rest of them. Once they got there, the entire place was crowded. Serena didn't have a clue as to why all of these people would even be interested in this stuff, she sure wasn't. But she knew that for Amy, she would be there for her friend no matter what. Once inside they took a look around and still couldn't believe the size of the place. "So what are you guys doing here?" A voice asked behind them. Serena turned to see Amara once she heard the voice. "Amara, Hi. Where here for Amy. She's one of the students that's been working on this project for a while now. We came here after we left the movie that Mina is staring in." Serena told her. "Why are you here?" She asked her. Amara didn't know what to say. She couldn't say that she was here for Heart Snatchers since she believed that they had no idea about them at all. "Me and Michelle have an interest in this. After all it's supposed to be the next wave of the future." She told her. "But I didn't think that you would be interested in the future since you're only concerned about Darien." She stated with a slight smirk. Serena fumed at that remark, but said nothing. The girls instead walked down to where Amy was standing waiting for them.
Eudial had arrived at the press conference at least thirty minutes before it had started. Her target was the professor that was going to be speaking there. She had calculated it down on her computer that he was the greatest target that they were going to get when it came to finding the three talismans. I just hope that this one doesn't mess up again, like all the rest. She thought as she looked around for a good spot to hide till it was time.
"Welcome ladies and gentlemen, to an exhibit that is sure to change the world." A voice boomed over the load speaker. "The future is now and the change is in the very DNA that we have in our selves. Genetics, the next step in human evolution. And here to talk and the future is Dr. Siamoto Kenron."
Everyone started clapping as the doctor came out on the stage, Michelle was the first to notice. "Amara, Eudial's here, it's the doctor. The heart snatchers are going after the doctor." She told her quickly and quietly. Both Michelle and Amara ducked out and went to go transform.
As the doctor continued to talk, Amy was listening intently as Serena looked around. "Talk about a snooze." She stated to her self. Rei turned to her. "Hush Serena, this is really important to Amy. After all with Amy studying to become a doctor, she'll need to know this and..." But Rei never got to finish her sentence when an explosion rocked the stage area. Once the smoke cleared, a mini-van was on the stage along with a tall red haired girl and a gun. "Your heart crystal please, if you don't mind, and if you do so what." She stated as she pulled the trigger and fired away. The blast hit the doctor right in the chest and went right through him pushing his heart crystal right out the backside. Only difference to this crystal was that it was blue and more circular then the rest was.
Serena and the girls knew what this meant. Once they all got outside they transformed and were about to head back in till they noticed that security was in the middle of notifying the police. "We'd better hurry guys, I don't think this time that we'll get all of the time that we need." Amy said as they went back in. Once they were back inside, they all took notice of the same guy that they had meet before sticking to the wall off to Eudial's right. The monster was already out of the box and had gotten stuck to the floor thanks to what the guy had put there in the first place. "Jupiter thunder...crash." Jupiter cried out as she punched a lighting bolt into the creature. The guy took that chance and webbed up the feet of the creature. "Ah webbing, shoot and stick." He stated, in what sounded like a quip. "Great why is it, that it always seems to be under these conditions that I get to meet you girls." He stated. Sailor Mars looked up at him since it was her, Sailor Mercury, Sailor Jupiter, Sailor Venus and Sailor Moon were all standing there. "And who in the world are you?" Mars asked him. He looked right at her. "Just to let you know, I've told her and I'll tell you, the name's Spider-Man." He informed the girls. "I just hope that were on the same side away from her." He said point at Eudial. "Since I happen to have this." He finished, producing the Heart Crystal. Sailor Moon didn't have a clue as to what to make of that one. "Ah just what is that?" She asked. Sailor Mercury pulled up her visor and started working on it. Spider-Man watched her with great interest. Amazing, they all work together and yet they look totally different from each other. He thought. Suddenly his Spider-Sense started going mad on him. Leaping out of the way in time he was able to shoot a web line out and swing over to the other side of the auditorium just as a red energy blast had hit where he was just at. "Great now who's shooting me?" He asked. "A Heart Crystal is all we're after, and you've got it. I've come to get it from you, I'm Sailor Uranus." Uranus finished. "And if you don't give it up, you'll have a lot to pay for. I'm Sailor Neptune." Neptune stated to him. Suddenly energy started forming around her as she gathered up a blue energy ball of water formed up. "Neptune Deep...Submerge." She shouted as she pushed the energy ball towards Spider- Man. At the speed that the energy ball was traveling at, she hardly had any time at all to dodge the blast. However he was able to do so. "What is this, hunt the spider day?" He asked. As he looked at the girls, he noticed that including the two new ones, that there was several all dressed as Sailors. "Who are you?" He asked. Sailor Moon took that as her usual cue. "I'm glade you asked." She stated. "Besides having a Heart Crystal that we need to put back, you might be working with her, and if that's the case, I'm Sailor Moon, I will right wrongs and triumph over evil in the name of the moon. And that means you." She stated. Spider-Man couldn't believe what was going on here. "So this is the super heroes they have her in Tokyo. No wonder I only stay in New York." He stated. "But hey I'm not here for the Heart Crystal if that's what you call it. I'm mainly here to talk to you girls." He told them as he tossed the crystal back at them. "If you want this here." At that point everyone got to see what the crystal looked like and it was like nothing that they had ever seen before.
