Disclaimer: Sailor Moon, I don't own; I own the Sailor Guardians and all made up characters.
A/N: I really glad you all really liked the last chapter. So did I. I hope you like this one as much as the last. Here something really important you must remember. You must remember the grouping of the scouts. Here it is if you forgotten. Sailor Moon, Cancer and Leo; Sailor Mars, Pluto, Aries and Scorpio; Sailor Venus, Taurus and Libra; Sailor Mercury, Gemini and Virgo; Jupiter, Sagittarius, Uranus, and Aquarius; Neptune, Saturn, Pisces, and Capricorn.
Last Time: Dark Moon attacked a party that the scouts were at trying to find them. He succeeded, when they transformed right in front of him. He challenged them to fight with him and brought out his monster, Duplicate. When Jupiter and Uranus attack the monster, it cloned its self and created another monster. When all was lost, Hannah, Adele, Elizabeth, Maria, Mary Kate, Rachel, Julia, Natalie, Jenna, Taylor, Olivia and Lauren revealed their true identities as the Sailor Guardians. Dark Moon soon separated all of them, sending them into a different dimension. Will the guardians and scouts be able to defeat him and his monsters?
Chapter 15- Truth is Revealed: Part 2
Sailor Moon opened her eyes. Where was she? She slowly got up to her feet and viewed her surroundings. She was in a ruin of some sort. It sort of reminded her of Silver Millennium, after its destruction. Sailor Moon began to wander around searching for an exit.
"I have to find my friends," she thought, "And get out of here."
A noise sounded behind her. Sailor Moon stopped. She put her hand to her tiara, what ever it was, she was going to destroy it.
"Moon Tiara Magic!" she shouted as she spun around throwing her tiara at the enemy,
"Cancer Crab Hammer!"
Sailor Moon's attack was blocked. As the dust disappeared, Sailor Cancer and Leo stepped out. Leo was holding Sailor Moon's tiara.
"Leo! Cancer!" said Sailor Moon running over to them, "Are you two okay?'
"Yeah," replied Leo as she gave Sailor Moon her tiara, "We're fine."
"Except that we're in the middle of nowhere," said Cancer, "When Dark Moon used the black holes, he teleported us to some different dimension, of some sort."
Flashback:
The ground began shake. Then a hole appeared under Sailor Moon. She screamed as she fell in it.
"Sailor Moon!" screamed Mars as she ran over to the hole, which disappeared.
Another hole appeared under Sailor Leo and Cancer who fell through it too.
End of Flashback:
"We have to get out of here," said Sailor Moon in a whinny tone.
"Don't worry. We'll get out of here," said Leo.
"My only question is how?" said Cancer, "As far as I can see, we're in the middle of nowhere and there's probably no living soul for miles."
Sailor Moon closed her eyes for a second. She thought of the time when Rini and Hotaru had been trapped inside Hotaru's house and the scenery would keep on changing. It was illusions created by a diamon. Then it hit Sailor Moon.
"Maybe if we find Dark Moon, we might be able to find a way to get out of here," said Sailor Moon as she opened her eyes quickly.
"Yeah, but how are we suppose to find him?" asked Leo as she looked around, "He could be any where in these ruins."
Sailor Moon sighed. There must be a way to find him, she thought as she sat down on a rock. Sailor Leo stared out at the sky, suddenly something caught her eye. There was a black moon in the sky and below it a black setting sun.
"I think I know where to find him," said Leo turning around to face Sailor Moon and Cancer.
She pointed out at the moon and sun. Sailor Moon got up, to see.
"You must be crazy," said Cancer.
"Well, what other choices do we have?' said Sailor Moon.
Cancer nodded in agreement. Together the three, started their way over to where the dark moon and black sun were. Unaware of the danger that was going to appear.
Meanwhile:
Sailor Mars stood up slowly as she looked around her setting. She was in a desert of some sort. Last thing she could remember was falling into a black hole with Sailor Pluto, Scorpio and…
A moaning noise came from behind her. Mars spun around to see Aries slowly standing up. She started to dust off the sand on her.
"Where in the world are we?" she said as she gazed around her.
"Some sort of desert," replied Mars, "But just in case it might have evil, I try this!"
A piece of parchment appeared in her hand.
"I banish you evil now!" she shouted as she threw the parchment.
Nothing happened.
"I guess that means its safe," said Aries.
Mars nodded in agreement. Then she heard someone call her and Aries's name. Mars turned around to see Pluto and Scorpio running toward them.
"I'm glad to see you two," said Mars as the two reached them.
"We thought you two might be together," said Pluto.
"After all," said Scorpio, "You both fell in the same hole as us."
"So where are we?' asked Aries, "This definitely isn't any desert on earth."
She was right. Even though it looked similar to any desert on earth, it had a strange feeling about it.
"I think we might be in a different realm," said Scorpio finally after a few moments of silence.
"Like the one you guarded?' asked Aries.
Scorpio shook her head, "That one was much different. This is probably being controlled by Dark Moon."
Pluto nodded in agreement. "He might be holding the others," she said.
"Then lets find him," said Mars.
"I'm with Mars," said Aries.
Pluto and Scorpio nodded in agreement.
"Then lets try going across that bridge," said Pluto pointing to a bridge that was a distance away.
Everyone nodded and started to walk toward the bridge.
In a swamp:
Sailor Venus awoke and up. Next to her, Sailor Taurus was sitting up.
"Why in the world are we?' she said as she glance around at their surroundings.
"A swamp, I think," replied Venus as she got to her feet.
The swamp was misty and quite smelly. It had thick, warm air.
"I can barely see," complained Taurus.
"Yeah," agreed Venus, "We have to get out of here."
"Oh, no!" exclaimed Taurus.
"What?"
"Libra, she's not with us!"
"That can't be right," said Venus, "We all fell though the same hole. She has to be around her somewhere."
Taurus nodded. "Lets go look for her," she said.
Venus nodded and the two went off searching for Libra.
In a different part of the swamp:
Sailor Mercury slowly opened her eyes. Leaning over her was Sailor Virgo, who had a concerned look on her face.
"You're awake!" she said happily as she helped Amy to her feet, "You made us worry."
Gemini walked over to the two.
"Are you okay?" she asked.
Mercury nodded.
"Where's everyone else?' she asked as she searched around for her friends.
Gemini shrugged, "I don't know."
Mercury sighed and took out her small laptop and started typing quickly.
"What are you doing?' asked Virgo.
"Trying to find a way out," replied Mercury as she scan through the computer, "Found it!"
"Where?" said Gemini.
"Over that way, we'll find a portal that can help us exit," replied Mercury.
"Let's go then," said Virgo.
In a forest:
Sailor Neptune, Pisces, Saturn and Capricorn walked through the trees searching for an exit.
"There must be a way to get out of here," said Pisces as she looked around.
"There probably is and we're just not looking hard enough," said Capricorn.
"Neptune," said Saturn, "Can you use your mirror to find us a way out?"
"Its worth a try," said Neptune.
Inside a deserted castle:
Jupiter and Sagittarius wander through the halls.
"We have to get out of here," complained Jupiter, "This place is really starting to bug me."
"I know what you mean," said Sagittarius, "Maybe my visor can find us an exit."
She pressed one of her green earrings and a light green visor appeared over her eyes. She searched around and finally it started to pick up something.
"Someone's coming," said Sagittarius, "Actually two people."
"Most likely Dark Moon and one of his creeps," said Jupiter angrily, "Lets get rid of them."
Sagittarius nodded. An antenna extended from Jupiter's tiara as she began to attack.
"Jupiter Thunder…" she started.
"Jupiter! Don't!" came a voice.
Jupiter stopped. Sailor Uranus and Aquarius came out of the shadows.
"Uranus!" said Jupiter in surprise.
"Aquarius!" said Sagittarius.
In a chamber:
Dark Moon was watching the groups of scouts in different screens. He laughed as he watched the scouts try to find their way out.
"You won't be going any where," said Dark Moon as he watched, "Duplicate!"
A face of a Duplicate appeared on a screen.
"Yes, master," it replied as it disappeared from the screen.
Dark Moon smiled evilly. Each of the Duplicates' had a special power. One of the Duplicate had the power of water, the other had fire, another controlled thunder, one had earth, another had wind and the last one was able to mimic others attacks.
"Have fun scouts," sneered Dark Moon as he watched the scouts wander around, "This my be your last time living, because you'll be dead the next time I see you."
He glanced over at a picture of him and Black Sun.
"Sister," he thought as he looked at it, "I'll get revenge for those scouts killing you. I promise."
Ruins:
"Are we there yet?' said Sailor Moon as she, Sailor Cancer and Leo trudge through the ruins, "This is like so torture!"
"I know what you mean," said Leo in agreement, "It feels like we're not moving anywhere."
"I think that's what Dark Moon is trying to do," said Cancer, "He's trying to discourage us, but we have to keep on going."
She started to run. Sailor Moon and Leo turn and stared at each other.
"Is she always like this?' asked Sailor Moon.
"Most of the time," replied Sailor Leo, "We better go after her."
Sailor Moon nodded and she and Leo ran after Sailor Cancer. Soon the two caught up to Cancer who was standing gazing out at something.
"What's wrong?' asked Leo as she followed Cancer's gaze.
"Duplicate."
"Huh?' said Sailor Moon in confusion.
Cancer pointed out to a figure walking toward them. It was one of the Duplicates. This Duplicate looked like the other clones, but this one looked sort of like a mime, with a mirror in his chest. He came over to the scouts, only a few yards away from them.
"Get ready," said Sailor Moon as she and the two guardians got ready to attack.
Leo nodded, "Lets get this over with," she said as she prepared to attack.
"Leo Solar Beam," she shouted as her attack shot out from her fingers that were together like a gun (sort of like the way Mars does her "Mars Fire Ignite"), "Flash!"
Her attack shot toward Duplicate and hit his mirror, which glowed and shot the attack back at her.
"Watch out!" screamed Sailor Moon as she and the guardians dove onto the ground.
The mime Duplicate, glowed and another mime Duplicate appeared.
"Oh, great," said Cancer, "Now there's two of them. Nice going, Leo."
"Sorry," replied Leo with a sheepish grin.
One of the Duplicate's mirrors began to glow. Leo's attack shot back at them. The scouts dodged it again.
"We can't keep this up forever," complained Sailor Moon.
"Here's an idea," said Cancer, "Run!"
The three girls sprinted away from the monsters, which followed them quickly. As Leo was running, she suddenly tripped on a rock and fell. Sailor Moon stopped and stun around.
"Sailor Leo!' she shouted and turned to go and help her.
"Sailor Moon!" shouted Sailor Cancer as turned and ran after her.
Sailor Moon ran over and helped Leo up.
"Are you okay?' she asked in concern.
Leo nodded.
"Their right behind us!" said Cancer.
The two Duplicates appeared behind the guardians. The mirrors start to glow as the Duplicates prepared to attack.
"Oh, no!" screamed Sailor Moon.
"This might be it!" said Cancer sadly.
The mirrors began to glow. Sailor Leo shut her eyes.
Then a red streak flew past Sailor Moon and landed in front of the Duplicates. The Duplicates looked up. Sailor Moon gasped in surprise.
"It can't be," she whispered.
She looked up to see Tuxedo Mask standing there on a column.
"Tuxedo Mask!" she shouted happily.
"Sailor Moon! Are you okay?' asked Tuxedo Mask as he jumped down next to the scouts and the guardians.
"Yeah, but how did you get here?' asked Sailor Moon as she helped Sailor Leo get out of the way.
"I really don't know, but lets get rid of this monster," said Tuxedo Mask.
Sailor Moon and Cancer nodded.
"Sailor Leo and I will distract the two, while you two attack them from the back," said Tuxedo Mask.
Sailor Leo turned to Tuxedo Mask, "Lets do this."
Sailor Moon and Cancer nodded. They ran off.
"Leo Solar Beam Flash!" shouted Sailor Leo as she launched her attack at one of the Duplicates.
Tuxedo Mask threw roses at the other Duplicate. While the Duplicates were distracted, Sailor Moon and Cancer were behind them preparing to attack.
"Cancer Crab" shouted Cancer as she punched the ground, "Hammer!"
"Moon Tiara Magic!" shouted Sailor Moon as she threw her tiara at the monster.
Cancer and Sailor Moon's attacks hit the two monsters and destroyed them.
"Yeah!" shouted Sailor Moon as she jumped up and down, "We did it!"
Dark Moon glanced at the screen that had Sailor Moon, Tuxedo Mask, Cancer, and Leo. He growled angrily.
In the desert:
Sailor Mars, Aries, Pluto and Scorpio ran over to the bridge.
"We're almost there!" shouted Aries as she and the others moved closer to the bridge.
Suddenly, a green Duplicate appeared in front of the bridge. It yellow thunderbolts all over its body. The four girls stopped.
"Its on of those monsters." said Mars as she stopped suddenly.
"Lets get rid of them," said Aries as she got ready to attack.
"Aries, wait!" said Scorpio.
"We have to be careful," said Pluto, "If we attack, he'll clone himself."
"Then what should we do?' said Aries impatiently.
Scorpio glanced at Aries. Mars understood immediately.
"Aries," she said gently, "We're going to distract him, while you get across the bridge."
"What!' shouted Aries, "I can fight.'
"I know," said Scorpio, "But this monster is tougher than our pervious and we don't want you to get injured."
"Besides," said Pluto, "One of us must stop Dark Moon. We'll hold him off, you go on."
Aries opened her mouth to argue, but then she saw the concerned looks of her friends.
"They really want to protect me," she thought.
"Okay," said Sailor Aries agreeing.
"Then lets take him down," said Mars.
Scorpio and Pluto nodded. The four ran over to the monster. The monster laughed.
"I'm Duplicate Thunder," stated the monster, "And, I'm the one who will destroy you."
"You wish," said Scorpio as she raised her sthlye, "Scorpio Deadly Sting!"
"Pluto Deadly Scream!" whisper Sailor Pluto as her staff glowed and a purple jewel that looked like her planet was released and hit Duplicate Thunder.
The two attacks hit Duplicate Thunder. Mars and Aries ran over to the bridge. It was a wooden, creaky bridge that was almost destroyed.
"Okay," said Mars turning to face Aries, "Here I let you go."
"Please be careful, Mars," said Aries as turned to start walking across the bridge.
She turned around and hugged Mars.
"Please, don't get hurt," she said as tears fell from her eyes.
Mars smiled gently.
"I'll be fine," she said as Sailor Aries released herself from Mars.
Then Aries turned and took a deep breath. She slowly started to walk across the bridge. Mars watched her for a little while, then turned around and ran over to Pluto and Scorpio.
Duplicate Thunder threw a thunderbolt at Sailor Pluto and Scopio who dodged it.
"Mars Fire Ignite!"
A blast of fire hit Duplicate Thunder.
"How do you like playing with fire?" asked Mars as she ran up to him.
"How about so thunder for you?' he asked as he send some lighting bolts at Mars, who did a shoulder roll out of the way.
Aries kept on walking across the bridge. I'm almost there, she thought.
Aries turned around and glance at Mars, Scorpio and Pluto who was fighting off Duplicate Thunder.
"Mars Celestial Fire Surround!" shouted Mars as she released the fire circles at the monster.
"Scorpio Deadly Sting!"
"Pluto Deadly Scream!"
The three attacks hit Duplicate Thunder who create a thunder shield, that protected him.
He laughed as he absorbed their attacks.
"You'll never win!" he shouted.
"There must be some way to defeat him," said Mars.
"Aries Fire Storm Charge!"
Another blast of fire hit Duplicate Thunder in the back. He screamed. Mars, Pluto and Scorpio turned to see Sailor Aries running toward them.
"Aries!" said Scorpio in surprise.
Aries smiled, "Lets finish him off!"
Mars nodded in agreement, "Mars Firebird Strike!"
"Aries Fire Storm Charge!"
The two attacks hit Duplicate Thunder and destroyed him.
"Duplicate Thunder failed me too," said Dark Moon as he stared at the screen with Aries, Mars, Pluto and Scorpio on it.
"That won't do," he said as his hands began to glow.
Mars, Aries, Pluto and Scorpio gasped as black mist surrounded them.
"What's going on?' said Scorpio.
"I don't know," said Mars as they disappeared.
They ended up in Dark Moon's chamber. Aries fainted.
"Aries!" shouted Mars, "Are you o-"
She fainted too. Soon Pluto and Scorpio started to sway and then finally fainted. They were floated up into the air and put on a glass coffins. Dark Moon smiled. Four down, eighteen more to go, he thought as he sealed the coffins.
