How To Transform a Ditz into a 'Perfect' Soldier
~Author's Note~
Well, well, I'm in the writing mood. ^^ I can't believe I started chapter 4 right after releasing chapter 3. ^^ I'm in the writing mood, and I've figured out the total ending, and I know exactly where this story is going. that is unless I stumble across an even more original, and evil ending for this fic. Hehehehhe, I'm in a goooood mood!! So on with the stories, oh and THANKS FOR THE REVIEWS!
Disclaimers: "Saaaantaaaa! Yoo Hoo? SANTA? WHERE ARE YOU??" ::Looks at all the weird looks she's getting:: "What? I'm just looking for Santa, he owes me the rights to GW and SM, after all I don't own them.yet, hehehehehehehe"
Recap: With a sick feeling of realization, Serena felt her whole body desert her. 'I'm never going to be the person that everyone wants to see. I'm not going to be perfect in every way, the way Princess Serenity had been, the way Neo-Queen Serenity was in the future. How was I supposed to accomplish all that when all I could do was shop, pig-out and evade taking responsibilities. But now it's too late to change everything. I'm going to die, and I'll never have the chance to make my family, friends and comrades proud of me." With grief pouring through her eyes, and face, Serena tearfully apologized to her friends, "I'm sorry, everyone.really sorry."
Chapter 4:
(AN: You guys wanted a fast-forward to the 'new' timeline being made, when Serena's changed? Well here it is!)
A young woman stood in the center of a street in the middle of Tokyo. She had silver blonde hair that was cut short down to her neck. Her cerulean blue eyes glistened in the nighttime lights of the semi-busy city. Her eyes were cold, distant and evil glinted through them. She had a slight figure, and a rosy complexion. Sporting a t-shirt, and cut-up jeans with hip holsters tied around her hips. She was wearing knee high boots similar to those worn by the Sailor Moon, and had the same distinct coloration in her clothes.
A small babe lay in the streets, crying for its mother, but no mother came to aid the little child. The young woman tossed her hair, turned and with icy indifference strolled away from the baby as if nothing had happened. The child lay screeching at the top of its lungs, until a car stopped in the streets and another young woman picked the child up. With a smirk of delight the woman jumped into the car, holding the babe secure in her arms. "Serena. Tsukino." A voice from down the streets beckoned to her, but she ignored it.
She strolled casually down the streets, not noticing the cracked sideways, and broken glass, charred wooden planks and the destroyed appearance of the city. It had been bombarded with war-making machines called gundams and no peace was heard of for 8 years.
A raven haired, battered woman stepped out of the shadows, anger and frustration graced her features as she held up a torn and bruised hand, "Mars." Serena didn't flinch or even move a muscle in response to the hand being held in her face. With a cold cut of her eyes, Serena pointed a gun into Rei's stomach and.
"SAILOR MARS!! WATCH OUT!!" With a shout of surprise Rei jumped backwards, and gazed amazed as a lightening bolt flashed before her eyes. "SHINE AQUA ILLUSION!" "TAKE THAT NEGA-CREEP!" "HA IN YOUR FACE!!!" The sailor scouts were all fighting with as much strength as they could muster without their leader, and they were winning.
Sailor Mars had found herself viewing a scene from her future, and was shocked and disgusted by it. 'How could that woman be Serena?' Once again zoning out on the battle that stood before her, she was thrown out of the way, as Sailor Mercury pushed her out of the way of a huge beam of negative energy. Both girls rolled to their feet, somewhat bruised and a little disoriented but otherwise unscathed. Mercury turned to her friend, "Sailor Mars, this isn't like you. Are you feeling alright? Are you injured?" Mars shook her head, "I'm fine.I just had a vision. I'll talk about it later, right now-DUCK!"
Mercury looked a little baffled but hit the deck as her friend pulled her down, once again the two barely missed becoming mince meat. "LETS DO IT!" Mars and Mercury jumped to their feet, and rushed at the villains residing in the room.
A little while ago the four friends had kicked down the door to the house and had hastily rushed inside, where they found a multitude of their enemies gathered, awaiting their arrivals. Confused and baffled at how enemies that had been long dead since the beginning of the Sailor Scouts could be standing before them ready to fight, the scouts had thought that it was an illusion, and attempted to blast their way through them.
In response to their hasty actions the nega-verse retaliated with as much vigor as they could display when finally fighting their long time enemies after being fully re-vitalized. The scouts were quickly backed down into a corner, but had collectively fought with as much vigor as they could find. The basic thought that Serena might be trapped within the house kept the girls going, serving as the energizer battery they needed to fight back against their foe.
Unbeknownst to them an evil figure watched from a mirror not to far away, in the future. She leaned back in her chair, and sipped delicately at the wine glass she had balanced gently in her fingers. She had beautiful golden hair that reached softly down her to her back, and cold blue eyes that held ice within their depths. Her cherry-pink lips danced in amusement as she watched the pain and suffering that all the girls went through. Without much movement she raised herself to her feet, and strolled to a door. Wrapping her slender fingers around the door handle, she pulled the door open. Within the door a brilliant light filtered through, making the well-lit room look rather dim. Without a word, the woman walked through the door; her back was held straight and her chin high with pride. In the room there were 8 caskets all lined up in a row. In the very center of the room were two golden caskets; one was made of sliver and gold, the other of gold and platinum.
Within two of the 8 caskets that were lined up, were two women. One of the women had aqua green hair, and an aqua blue Sailor Scout's uniform on. The other woman had sandy blonde hair cut short to the length of a boy's, and her fuku was the color of a burnt orange. In the center of the room, in the gold and platinum casket, lay a pink haired ruthless looking young girl. She was wearing a pair of shabby looking jeans with an almost transparent shirt over her tank top. All of them looked to be asleep or dead, but one couldn't figure out which unless you were the ones who put them into the chambers yourself.
A slow evil grin lit the woman's face up as she surveyed the room with anticipation. 'Soon my collection will be complete, and my grand prize will be available. I can not wait for that day!' She tossed her hair over her shoulders, and turned her icy gaze to the door whence she came, and grinned. "The time is closer at hand than I supposed. It will be far easier to gain the powers to Her highness than I would have expected."
Serena continued to cry, not even trying to fight as the men charged into a room, leaving Qautre behind in another room. She gasped when the flung her down on the ground, her eyes were wide and fear was encrusted in them. Wiping her tears away, she stared up into the face of the old man who had caused her so much pain and suffering, and who was going to kill her.
The elderly man stared down at the blonde beauty that lay at his feet, she was trembling from fear, and her eyes held terror within their cerulean orbs. He knelt down to look at her eye to eye, and was greeted by a whimper of alarm. "Ms. Serena Tsukino. I see that you're trembling from fright. Well that is something we are going to have to fix." Serena gulped not liking the tone of voice he used, "p-Please, don't kill me. I-I S-swear I'll do anything.J-Just don't-don't h-h-hurt m-e-ee- me.." She chocked on her words, fear gripping her shoulders in an icy hold.
She found herself wanting to get up and run, but her legs weren't working. In fact none of her body parts were working, she realized that quite literally she couldn't move any of her limbs. Her eyes grew wider, and the old man gave her a bone-chilling smirk. "Ahhh so the gas that was in your clothes, and the cloth we had bound you with is kicking in? Well I figured, miss moon, that you would attempt to use your 'cosmic' powers on me, and well we can't have that happening now can we?" Serena swallowed, she suddenly felt quite ill, and realized that she wanted to get away from him as fast as possible. Serena wanted just to get away from the place she was in, she wanted to leave and that was it. She'd gladly forget all about the encounter, and wouldn't even bother going to the police. If they'd only let her go with her life intact, she would happily forget all about them, and the horrible crimes they committed. She watched him with an uneasy feeling of distrust.
"Well my dear girl, I am Dr. J. Yes Dr. J. You needn't call me any more than J. Oh and how do I know about your being Sailor Moon, and Princess Serenity? Well let's just say a friend of ours gave away your little secret. Now don't ask who, for that will only upset me." He gave her a frosty smirk. "I'm going to give you a little gift, child; one that you will most likely be very happy to receive." Once again Dr. J issued her another icy-cold smirk of dark amusement, "I am going to spare your life, only because I see great potential in you."
It was a lie of course, the only reasons he even bothered to kidnap Serena was because of her powers. However J could care less what lies he told, so long as she ended up working for him. He turned so that she was staring at his back, the white suit he was wearing seemed to be off on him. His graying hair hung low on his shoulders, and gave him a 60's look. "You're going to embark upon great training. You're going to be tested on everything we teach you here. You're going to become perfect, Serena. Perfect in everyway." He turned back to her, his yellow, broken teeth peeking out from chapped tight lips.
Serena felt her heart skip three or four beats at once. 'Perfect? Perfect enough to become the future queen.' She looked into J's eyes, but didn't find comfort; something about him scared her, sending chills into her very bones. He continued to grin disarmingly at her, "Yes, it was your dream, wasn't it? To become perfect; perfect enough to make your friends proud of you? Yes, I can see it in your eyes." Behind him a television set was turned on, and on it a picture of Serena and her friends came on.
Moving aside so that Serena had a perfect view of the Television, he continued to murmur softly about all that was going to be 'given' to her, and sat down so that he too could watch the video tape taken of her and her friends only a few short weeks before.
Tape Sequence
Serena's ponytails swished lightly behind her, as she locked onto Mina's arm, dragging her to the window of a bakery. "OOOOOHHHH lets grab some food! I'm starving!" Mina's own blonde hair mingled with Serena's as she bent forward to drool over the sweets in the window. From behind them an irritated Rei growled, "Serena you're going to get fat as a pig eating all that junk food! I can't believe your still hungry after stealing everyone's food. Come on we have important business to get done!" "Come on Serena, I'll make you my own special recipe, if you promise not to linger in the windows! Lets all head to my place this time, Rei. Your grandfather might like the peace and quiet for once." Lita's ponytail twirled lightly in the breeze, and then floated back into place. Amy looked up from the book she was reading, and shook a finger at Serena, "Serena, how do you expect to get anything done? You're supposed to be studying, not worrying over how many sweets you can gulp down in an hour." Exasperated Rei dragged the blonde ditz across the street, taking care to steer away from the arcade. The other three followed close behind, talking quietly amongst themselves. 20 minutes later they all arrived at the conclusion that they would much rather hang out at the diners than head over anyone's house.
As the group of five walked tiredly down a short-cut alley, a black cat jumped down in front of them, and a white cat followed soon after. Serena jumped, startled by the two cats. "Luna! Artemis! Where have you two been?" Kneeling down on one knee, she pets both of the cats, and the black one then spoke up. "Where have I been? Where have you been, young lady? Serena, I thought I asked you to meet me at the arcade today, but you never showed up, not even late! You have to take responsibilities, remembering things that you have to do, and-" Serena yawned loudly, and waved the cat away. "I have time Luna, don't be such a bore! I have to live life to it's fullest, I only have today as 14, you know!"
The cat growled annoyed by the Princess' rude behavior. "Serena, you are princess of the moon! It's about time you started acting it! Cutting me off right in the middle of my lecture isn't the smart way to start practicing!" The other girls sighed, as Serena started to walk away, her attention shifting quickly from the annoyed cat, to her growling stomach. Artemis spoke up, his gentler voice catching her attention. " Serena, if you'd only listen to us. We are your guardians' for a reason you know. Queen Serenity knew you'd need some advisors in this new time, and that's why we're here. We have to prepare you for the job of being neo-queen Serenity."
Serena looked at them bored by all the serious talk, with a sigh of resignation she nodded, "I know you all want me to be perfect, ok. I promise that I'll start training myself tomorrow. Let me have a fun day today, and tomorrow I'll start walking properly, and remembering appointments and studying in school. Let's just chill and hang out tod-" A loud scream pierced the air, startling every single one of the girls. Reacting as quickly as they could the girls transformed: "MOON COSMIC POWER MAKEUP! MARS STAR POWER MAKEUP, MERCURY STAR POWER MAKEUP, VENUS STAR POWER MAKEUP, JUPITAR STAR POWER MAKEUP."
Scurrying out of the alleyway, the girls bounced right into some Negaverse scum, trying to steal the life force out of a young girl. "STOP RIGHT THERE!! HOW DARE YOU TRY TO STEAL THE ENERGY FROM THAT LITTLE GIRL! DON'T YOU HAVE ANY SENSE OF HONOR? HURTING SOMEONE THAT CAN'T FIGHT BACK, WELL I WON'T STAND FOR IT! I AM SAILOR MOON, CHAMPION OF LOVE AND JUSTICE! IN THE NAME OF THE MOON I SHALL PUNISH YOU!" The other scouts appeared from behind Sailor Moon, eyes narrowed ready for a fight, "WE ARE THE SAILOR SCOUTS! I AM SAILOR MARS, I AM SAILOR MERCURY, I AM SAILOR JUPITER AND I AM SAILOR VENUS! WE FIGHT FOR LOVE AND JUSTICE! YOU'RE GOING TO WISH THAT YOU WEREN'T BORN!" A large beam of negative energy was headed straight at Serena, she banshee screamed and landed on her butt, kicking her feet so that she was crawling backwards away from the fight. Getting up she had to run from more beams of energy, and blasts of cold negative waves, often landing on her face in a show of graceless style. "OOF! Ouch that hurts!!" She was sitting down, her knees locked together, tears pouring from her face, "waaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh that hurts!!!" She sobbed uncontrollably, while the other scouts fought off the negaverse, and tried to protect her at the same time. "SHINE AQUA ILLUSION!" "AHHHHHH, OOF!" "VENUS LOVE CHAIN INCIRLCE!" "MARS CELESTIAL FIRE SURROUND!"
In unison the four other scouts called out to Sailor Moon, "SAILOR MOON! FINISH THEM OFF!" Serena looked up from her place on the floor, and realized that it was her turn to kill off the Negaverse, and gladly stood up, "RIGHT! MOON SPIRAL HEART ELIMINATION!!!" ((AN: Umm -_-;; I forgot Serena's Scepter powers.that's not good. not good at all. Sorry everyone!)) With an amazingly arrogant show of haughtiness Sailor Moon/Serena wheeled on the victim and helped her up, and after a brief smile disappeared with the scouts, as if she had been the star of the show.
Sailor Mars had something to say about that, "That wasn't your best display of power I've ever seen, Sailor Moon! You could have been hurt! Can't you for once take some responsibilities!?!? It isn't too much to ask that you at least try to fight along side of us, not end up on your butt the whole time!"
The tape ended, and Serena felt tears cloud her vision. Her lower lip trembled, she knew that the older man was right; she wanted to be perfect with all her heart. 'It's now or never! Now I have to make up my mind.will I do what he wants and allow him to turn me perfect? Or will I. die?' Serena looked up at J, who was smirking down at her, drew in a deep breath and. "I-I'll..do it!"
~Author's Note~ Ahhh their.guess it kind of took me longer than I expected. Well sorry about that everyone! It snowed here the last few days, and the only bit of writing that I got in was late at night, and I'm dead tired late at night. In fact that would happen to be the reason this chapter is probably the most boring chapter in this fic so far. UGGG! Ohhhhhh Star!! How dare you think I thought your review was a flame! Your right, I was making Pluto quite a bitch, -_^ but that is for reason's of my own. Later in this fic you'll see why she's a bitch. N E ways, I've got to get to bed everyone! Read and Review, and I know I know, it's the most boring chapter in this fic, ^^ sorry bout that!

Recap: With a sick feeling of realization, Serena felt her whole body desert her. 'I'm never going to be the person that everyone wants to see. I'm not going to be perfect in every way, the way Princess Serenity had been, the way Neo-Queen Serenity was in the future. How was I supposed to accomplish all that when all I could do was shop, pig-out and evade taking responsibilities. But now it's too late to change everything.

With grief pouring through her eyes, and face, Serena tearfully apologized to her friends, "I'm sorry, everyone.really sorry."

Let me have a fun day today, and tomorrow I'll start walking properly, and remembering appointments and studying in school. Let's just chill and hang out tod-" A loud scream pierced the air, startling every single one of the girls. Reacting as quickly as they could the girls transformed: "MOON COSMIC POWER MAKEUP! MARS STAR POWER MAKEUP, MERCURY STAR POWER MAKEUP, VENUS STAR POWER MAKEUP, JUPITAR STAR POWER MAKEUP."
Scurrying out of the alleyway, the girls bounced right into some Negaverse scum, trying to steal the life force out of a young girl. "STOP RIGHT THERE!! HOW DARE YOU TRY TO STEAL THE ENERGY FROM THAT LITTLE GIRL! DON'T YOU HAVE ANY SENSE OF HONOR? HURTING SOMEONE THAT CAN'T FIGHT BACK, WELL I WON'T STAND FOR IT! I AM SAILOR MOON, CHAMPION OF LOVE AND JUSTICE! IN THE NAME OF THE MOON I SHALL PUNISH YOU!" The other scouts appeared from behind Sailor Moon, eyes narrowed ready for a fight, "WE ARE THE SAILOR SCOUTS! I AM SAILOR MARS, I AM SAILOR MERCURY, I AM SAILOR JUPITER AND I AM SAILOR VENUS! WE FIGHT FOR LOVE AND JUSTICE! YOU'RE GOING TO WISH THAT YOU WEREN'T BORN!" A large beam of negative energy was headed straight at Serena, she banshee screamed and landed on her butt, kicking her feet so that she was crawling backwards away from the fight. Getting up she had to run from more beams of energy, and blasts of cold negative waves, often landing on her face in a show of graceless style. "OOF! Ouch that hurts!!" She was sitting down, her knees locked together, tears pouring from her face, "waaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh that hurts!!!" She sobbed uncontrollably, while the other scouts fought off the negaverse, and tried to protect her at the same time. "SHINE AQUA ILLUSION!" "AHHHHHH, OOF!" "VENUS LOVE CHAIN INCIRLCE!" "MARS CELESTIAL FIRE SURROUND!"
In unison the four other scouts called out to Sailor Moon, "SAILOR MOON! FINISH THEM OFF!" Serena looked up from her place on the floor, and realized that it was her turn to kill off the Negaverse, and gladly stood up, "RIGHT! MOON SPIRAL HEART ELIMINATION!!!" ((AN: Umm -_-;; I forgot Serena's Scepter powers.that's not good. not good at all. Sorry everyone!)) With an amazingly arrogant show of haughtiness Sailor Moon/Serena wheeled on the victim and helped her up, and after a brief smile disappeared with the scouts, as if she had been the star of the show.
Sailor Mars had something to say about that, "That wasn't your best display of power I've ever seen, Sailor Moon! You could have been hurt! Can't you for once take some responsibilities!?!? It isn't too much to ask that you at least try to fight along side of us, not end up on your butt the whole time!"
The tape ended, and Serena felt tears cloud her vision. Her lower lip trembled, she knew that the older man was right; she wanted to be perfect with all her heart. 'It's now or never! Now I have to make up my mind.will I do what he wants and allow him to turn me perfect? Or will I. die?' Serena looked up at J, who was smirking down at her, drew in a deep breath and. "I-I'll..do it!"
~Author's Note~ Ahhh their.guess it kind of took me longer than I expected. Well sorry about that everyone! It snowed here the last few days, and the only bit of writing that I got in was late at night, and I'm dead tired late at night. In fact that would happen to be the reason this chapter is probably the most boring chapter in this fic so far. UGGG! Ohhhhhh Star!! How dare you think I thought your review was a flame! Your right, I was making Pluto quite a bitch, -_^ but that is for reason's of my own. Later in this fic you'll see why she's a bitch. N E ways, I've got to get to bed everyone! Read and Review, and I know I know, it's the most boring chapter in this fic, ^^ sorry bout that!
