Serena and Darien watched in horror at the sight before them. An army of black figures marched across the frozen lake. Before the lake, Endymion was standing in front of Serenity, his hand on his sword-hilt. Serena pulled back from the window and looked at Darien. Except he was no longer Darien; a masked man was looking back at her. Their eyes met, and they both understood. He jumped out of the window and landed safely on the ground. Serena watched him sprint off towards the lake.

She grabbed her chest instinctively for her brooch, but she remembered where it was. It was in a velvet pouch in safety deposit box #6746 at Los Angeles Community Bank. Also in the box were the Luna Pen and her last picture of everyone together. Fresh tears were in her eyes, but she blinked them back. Maybe I can still access its power, she thought.

Serena closed her eyes and looked deep into her soul. "MOON ETERNAL POWER!" She flinched and waited for the power to wash over her. She opened her right eye first, and then looked down at her body. She was wearing a plain white gown she put on an hour ago. "Dammit!" she swore, cursing her ineptitude. Wait, she thought, there was once when I transformed without the crystal. I used my heart crystal. It almost killed me, but what the hey? "MOON CRISIS POWER!" She felt her heart crystal flicker, but it still didn't empower her fully.

Serena looked out the window, only to whimper. She plainly saw Tuxedo Mask fighting all of the black figures on his own. He was taking a severe beating. His top hat was knocked off and his cape was ripped. His roses seemed to be shattering the monsters, but they reformed again instantly. "No," she whispered, and fell to her knees. Then her eyes snapped open and hardened. "Serena Tsukino might give up that easily," she thought, standing up and clenching her fists. "But Jessica Webber will not!" She dove out of the window, and flipped in the air before landing n a crouch below. She ran at full speed towards the lake.

At the lake, she veered towards the forest, not wanting to be noticed by Serenity and Endymion. Once under the safety of the trees, she saw Darien fighting up close, but she also heard the bones crunch and saw the blood when he got hurt. She wondered why Endymion at least, if not Serenity, didn't help him. Then she heard Tuxedo Mask shout at them to stay back and not get to close. Come on Serena, let's do this, she told herself. She forced herself to look inside and think about how much she needed to help Darien. "MOON CRISIS POWER!"

"It's just…"

"Just what?"

Serenity remembered their conversation well. Afterwards he had leaned down, intending to kiss her. What had shocked her even more was that she was going to let him. I even got on the tips of my toes to help him, she thought scandalously. Endymion's lips touched hers for what must've been a second before leaving again. For that second, Serenity felt strange. She felt strong and warm and happy. A smile involuntarily came across her lips as she looked at him.

Endymion grinned down stupidly at her. That kiss was awesome! His mind was racing; he didn't know whether-or-not she would kill him or kiss him again. Serenity reached up and, though his first instinct was to flinch, he stood still waiting. Before long, he felt her slender fingers run through his hair. After reaching the top of his head, she brought her hand down to cup his cheek. He leaned into it, feeling her slightly cold hand against his warm cheeks.

Just as he opened his mouth to say something, an odd sound came to his ears. Marching. He remembered the sounds of the soldiers in times of war, the way their boots hit the hard earth of his home. As far as he knew, the Moon had no militia or soldiers. So he turned his head to discover what the source was. He had never seen anything like that. At least one hundred creatures were marching across the frozen lake, coming towards them. They were dark purple, almost glass-like creatures. Maybe they were made of…crystals? he thought. The creatures only had two different shapes. One had short hair and the other's hair reached close to the ground.

Serenity had let out a loud scream and moments later, an oddly dressed man came over. He was wearing a tuxedo complete with a cape and top hat. Endymion had jumped forward to fight, but the man with the bad fashion sense had told him to stay back and defend the princess. So, he stayed in front of Serenity with his hand on his sword, waiting. He immediately became ready to defy the order when the crystal creatures had the tuxedo-ed one by the throat, but another voice rang out.

"Hey ugly!" All of the creatures' heads turned to look at the interruption. "Hands off my Tuxedo Mask!" A figure jumped down from the tall tree limbs. Her knee-high red boots touched the frozen lake first. Her skirt was short and white with a yellow and blue bands; it also had a translucent bow in the back. Her upper body was covered in white with a sailor collar and red bow in the center. In the center of the bow was a shining crystal that looked almost like a sea urchin. She had a red band around her slender neck. Her blue eyes were less bright, but accentuated by the golden tiara on her brow. Her hair was colored like Serenity's, but it was cut around her shoulders.

"'My Tuxedo Mask'? The creatures said as a whole. "What are you, his girlfriend who's into cosplay?"

"No!" Sailor Moon shouted, offended.

("Yes except for the cosplay part," Tuxedo Mask said.)

"For love and justice! I am the pretty sailor-suited soldier Sailor Moon! For attacking this peaceful kingdom and disrupting the lovebirds, I will, in the name of the moon, punish you!" She finished her speech by crossing her arms and pointing at the creatures. After a moment of silence, everyone sweat-dropped and all but Tuxedo Mask started to laugh, infuriating Serena.

Sailor Moon's appearance allowed Tuxedo Mask to break free of the creatures holding onto him. He quickly ran over to Sailor Moon. "Fancy meeting you here," he said sarcastically.

"Why are they laughing? I'm so gonna kill them!" she growled.

"'For disrespecting the narrative flow, I will punish you!' Something along those lines?" he asked, grinning.

"Something like that. So, how should we do this?" Sailor Moon asked.

"Well, fists don't seem to have much effect, so how 'bout a little moon-magic?"

"You got it," Sailor Moon said, brandishing her Spiral Heart Moon Rod. For a second, they both flashed back to when the rod first appeared, but then they came back to reality, blushing. "Rainbow Moon Heart ACHE!" Sailor Moon cried.

Several hearts sprang forth out of the crystal in the rod, destroying all of the crystal-creatures. "Nice one!" Tuxedo Mask praised, clapping her on her back.

"Yes, very impressive, Sailor Moon," a voice laughed softly, and someone began to clap slowly. "Or should I say 'Serena?' Or should I say 'Usagi'?" the voice sneered.

Sailor Moon and Tuxedo Mask looked at each other, and then at Serenity and Endymion, who were looking at them oddly. "Usagi…Mamoru?" Serenity asked quietly.

Tuxedo Mask gave a curt nod and then shouted to the unseen voice. "Who are you? What do you want?"

"Always with the questions, Darien! You just want all the answers, don't cha? Since I'm in such a good mood, I'm gonna answer you."

A black tornado appeared above them, causing the four of them to duck down. When the wind stopped, a beautiful woman, if she was a woman, was floating in the air. Her short black hair was tucked behind her ears, revealing her magenta star earrings. She was wearing a form-fitting, full-length violet dress. The sleeves went to her wrists and a piece of cloth connected to her ring finger. Her pale features were painted with red lipstick, black eyeliner, and purplish eye shadow.

"I've been meaning to have a talk with the four of you."

I bet everyone hates me now... Sorry, it was just such a perfect place to stop. The next update for this story will be in a week or so; "The Secret of Chibiusa" will be updated soon, very soon; and "Sailor Moon High" will be updated within the next week!
