Author's Note: I know this took me forever to update, and this
chapter is kind of short. But be patient please, I have a lot of things
going on. I will try to update within a week or two. I'll write some during
school so I can get this whole story out of my head.
Anyway, Disclaimer time: I don't own Sailor Moon though that would be awesome.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~Chapter Two "The New Enemy." Part One ~~~~~~~~~~~~ It felt as though days had passed by the time Usagi decided to get up from her seat. Her eyes trailed over to Shiko, who was currently sleeping on the couch. Usagi let out a breath and walked over to the window. Pulling back the curtain, a single beam of light shot through right onto Shiko's sleeping form.
Shiko made a small grumble then rolled over and tumbled onto the floor. Usagi covered her mouth quickly trying to hold back the laughter sneaking up her throat. Shiko opened one eye and looked at Usagi before sitting up quickly and realizing what happened.
"And they said I sleep lightly." Shiko rubbed her head while arching a brow at Usagi.
Usagi couldn't hold back any longer and the laughter burst out of her. She dropped to the floor laughing the hardest she had laughed in a long time. Shiko just stared at her waiting for Usagi to stop.
Usagi made one final gasp for breath before falling over and going silent. She stared over at Shiko watching her closely. Shiko's ice blue eyes were focused on her curtain and the one strand of light that was still managing to escape into the room.
"Feel better?" Shiko whispered still staring at the light.
"Mhh, much better.Sometimes people just need a good laugh, then it's like everything is better. Don't you think so, Shiko?" Usagi questioned and was returned with a firm nod.
Shiko slowly stood up and dusted herself off lightly. "I think we should go somewhere."
"Okay! But where to?" Usagi sat up, placing her legs in front of her and stretched forward.
"Let's head to the arcade, school's almost over and your friends will be looking for you there. We don't need them thinking you were attacked or anything."
Usagi made a loud sigh before pulling herself up from the ground and replying. "I guess.but I don't want to stay there long, they don't understand me anymore and it's so hard to talk to them."
Shiko grabbed her jacket and headed to the door slipping her feet into her boots. Usagi followed after Shiko putting on her shoes also and heading out the door. Usagi turned around and looked into the room one last time before shutting the door and running down the hall to Shiko.
Shiko and Usagi walked in silence as they headed towards the arcade. The only sound between the two was their shoes crunching on the pavement. Which was beginning to make Usagi itch.
I scream broke through the two's silence and Shiko stopped dead in her tracks. She turned her head quickly towards the alleyway in which the sound had come from and stared into its darkness. Her eyes seemed to lighten a shade when she turned back to Usagi.
"Think we should check it out?" Another scream echoed down the alleyway causing Usagi to twitch with fear.
"It'd be a good idea." Usagi whispered and before she even finished the sentence Shiko was marching down into the alley and disappearing into the darkness.
Usagi slowly walked into the alleyway trying to find where Shiko went. Another scream echoed down the alleyway but it was a different sounding scream, it was a male one. Usagi hurried down the alleyway hoping it was nothing that she didn't want to see.
Usagi stepped into a dim light escaping from a doorway and found blood pooled at her feat. She released a yelp and stammered backwards hitting into something soft. Her eyes grew wide and she turned around and found a body behind her stuck onto the wall with nails. A horrible sounding scream came out of her mouth but was shortly cut off by a hand slipping over her mouth.
"Usa, I know it's scary, but if you scream, the thing that did this might come back." Usagi whimpered and nodded under Shiko's hand. "I'm going to let go, don't scream." Shiko pulled her hand back and Usagi started crying.
"Wha.what did that?" She spoke between gasps while pointing accusingly at the body.
"It's what I feared. They followed me here after all." Shiko turned around and stared into the open doorway where more blood was on the floor of what looked like a kitchen. Shiko turned back to Usagi. "I'm going in, the thing might be in there, and we should maybe transform."
Usagi stared at Shiko hoping what she just heard wasn't correct. ".Going in? But, Shiko."
"Usagi, it's a new enemy, we need to go in."
Usagi whimpered again. "Alright.I'll transform."
"So will I."
Usagi grasped the brooch off of her school uniform bow and held it up. She strained her eyes and took one last glance at the body before screaming out. " Moon Crisis Make.Up!!" A beam of light shot around Usagi and glowed brightly.
Shiko reached into her jacket and retrieved a small sword pendant and held it up. "Death Power Make.Up!" A beam of black light shot out from the ground and wrapped around Shiko's body. The light disappeared and Shiko was left wearing a very dark looking sailor senshi suit. The only colors were the silver bow upon her breast, the silver bow on her lower back, her silver boots and the white body suit. Black fishnet raced up her legs hidden under her black skirt. Her necklace had a square of silver on it.
By the time Shiko had realized she was transformed Usagi, Super Sailor Moon, was standing and waiting for her. Shiko removed one of her gloves and touched her outfit. A strike of energy passed through her and she slowly slid her arm back into her glove.
Shiko was already heading into the room before Usagi knew to catch up. Blood was all over the walls, the floor and what looked like a bed. Shiko stepped over what she could make out as a body and felt a cold draft shoot in from the other room.
"It's in there.are you ready?" Shiko whispered while turning her head to look at Usagi.
"Ye.yes." Usagi whimpered once again before following Shiko into the room.
Shiko had stopped dead in her tracks and now stared at the corner of the room. Usagi's eyes slowly followed over to what Shiko was looking at. Usagi's breath caught in her chest as she stared at the creature that stood there. Her head began to hurt and she looked away quickly.
"Why.do I remember that.thing?" Usagi mumbled out before falling over.
~~~
I know, I know.. a bad way to end the chapter, but I needed to right now. This would have been up earlier but I had a death in my family while writing this, so I had been interrupted for some time because of that. I'll start the next chapter as soon as I can.
