Sorry I haven't updated in so long, thing's have been crazy, I've suffered through mid-terms, and we just switched classes at school about two weeks ago, so now I'm settling back into math and physics, and that's been hectic, and now to top it off I'm sick. Anyways, I finally have some free time, so I'm updating, and that's all that matters, right? Okay, have fun reading, just as I promised in the last chapter, this will revolve around the Witch girls.

Chapter 3- So much for Vacation
Will stirred and opened her eyes. It was raining outside. She sighed as she sat up. Rain is the worst, she thought, What can you do in the rain?
She tip-toed out of Serena's room and down the hall. It was about half way along that she heard it.
"What do you think Luna?" Will jumped a mile. Rini was in the kitchen talking to someone. She picked in through a crack in the door. The only other living thing in the room besides Rini was the cat. Was Rini talking to a cat?
"I don't know Rini, what you described could be anything", Will eyes grew wide. She backed away from the door and shot back for the room she was staying in. I have to be dreaming, she thought as she collapsed on the bed, Ow! She thought as she pinched herself, So much for that theory. But cats can't talk. Can they?
Rini walked over to the door and opened it a little wider. She could have sworn she heard someone running out there. But the hall was empty.
"Weird", she said with a shrug, "Anyways, how are we supposed to fight this monster if we don't know what it is?"
"That isn't your only problem", Luna pointed out, "What about those American girls, huh? You can't exactly abandoned them, now can you?"
"Maybe Serena was right", Rini said thoughtfully, "And I never thought I'd say that. But maybe she was right about this being a bad idea"
"It certainly looks that way to me", Luna said with a nod, "But, the girls are here now, so what can we do right?"
"Right",Rini nodded, "We're just going to have to do the best we can"
"I'm telling you, that cat was talking", Will said in a low voice. She and her friends were hanging out at Serena's with Serena and her friends, who were busy cooking. Rini was playing with Diana, Artemis, and Luna in the hallway, leaving the girls free to talk.
"A talking cat?" Irma repeated, "I think the jetlag got to you Will"
"I'm serious!" Will protested, "Something weird is going on here"
"That should be our motto", Irma said slyly.
"I hate to say it, but she's right", Cornelia said, "Something weird is always going on in our lives"
"That doesn't explain the cat", Will pointed out
"Maybe you were hearing things", Taranee suggested, "Logically speaking, cats can't talk"
"Our lives aren't logical though", Hay Lin said.
"True"
"Lunch!" Serena danced in balancing two trays.
"Do you want some help?" Will asked at once, standing up.
"Of course not", Serena said, "You're guests, guests shouldn't be put to—ah!"
The trays went flying as Serena tumbled over a pillow that fell off the bed. The trays hit the floor with a crash
"Serena!" Lita raged, "What did you do?"
"Uh…oops", Serena stumbled up giggling nervously, "Sorry Lita, it was an accident"
"I'll get some paper towels", Amy said with a sigh heading back towards the kitchen. The other girls started picking up the dishes.
"Well, we could always go out to lunch", Serena said. Her face was red with embarrassment. Will stooped down and started helping to pick up, but Mina quickly stopped her.
"Serena may be a bonehead, but she's right", Mina said kindly, "You guys are guests, it's no big deal, we'll take care of it, really"
Amy came back in with the paper towels and the mess was picked up in no time. "It stopped raining", Rini said suddenly, looking out the window, "We can go out to lunch then, if you want"
"Good idea", Rei said, standing up, "I'm in the mood to get out for a bit anyways, lets go!"
Ring-ring!
"Huh?" Serena grabbed the phone and answered, "Hello? Uh huh…uh huh…sure, we'd love to! All right, sure, we were just thinking of heading out anyways, sounds good! Okay, see you in a little while then, bye!"
"Who was that?" Rini asked as Serena hung up.
"Darien", Serena said, "We're meeting him downtown, so lets go!"
"I never get tired of this scene", Hay Lin said with a sigh, "It's so cool"
"You're of Chinese origin right?" Mina asked, "That must be cool, do you know any Chinese stories?"
"My grandmother used to tell me all kinds of stories!" Hay Lin said excitedly.
"A lot of myths are of Chinese or Japanese origins", Amy pointed out, "I've heard quite a few in my time, they are pretty cool"
"So where's your friend?" Irma asked suddenly, looking around.
"She's impatient", Cornelia said, "Don't worry, it's nothing against you"
"Over there!" Rini said, pointing, "Hey Darien!"
A boy of about nineteen or twenty looked around. He had short, tousled like black hair, and was tall. He smiled and waved at the girls. He looked like a kind person.
"He's cute", Irma said slightly breathless. Will looked to see the reaction of their Japanese friends, but Irma had said it quietly enough they didn't notice.
"Hey Darien", Rini said as the boy approached, "How's it going?"
"Not bad", he said. He looked over at Will and her friends, "These your new friends?"
"Oh yea!" Serena said, snapping out of whatever funk she was in, "Yea, they sure are. That's Will, Irma, Taranee, Cornelia…no wait, sorry, that's Hay Lin, the blonde is Cornelia. I think…did I get that right?"
"Yes", the five girls nodded and smiled. Serena smiled, relieved.
Crash!
"What was that?.!" Serena cried, looking around, "Sounded like something breaking, didn't it?"
"Yea", Amy said, "Do you think it was a car accident or something?"
"Unh", Will stumbled forward clutching her head. She suddenly felt light-headed and dizzy.
"Will!" Taranee grabbed her friend to keep her from collapsing and held her straight.
"What's wrong?" Serena asked panicking, "What's going on?"
"It's nothing", Will said quickly, straightening up, slightly breathless, "It's happened before, just…I dunno, maybe too much walking or something…"
"Lets get out of the sun", Rei said, "Something tells me that isn't helping you much, come on"
The girls walked to the nearest restaurant to take a break. Taranee grabbed Will the second she had a chance and pulled her aside.
"You're not that good at lying", she said quietly, "What really happened?"
"I'm not sure", Will said honestly, "It could have been anything really—"
"Hey come on!" Irma called to the girls, "I'm hungry, lets get something to eat!"
Taranee and Will exchanged a glance and started to make their way over to where their friends were.
Crash!
"Ah!" Will whirled around to see what had happened. There was some kind of creature on the street. It wasn't all that big, maybeseven tall, but it looked vicious. It had blades all over it's body, that it was using to slash through anything that got in it's path.
"Will, look over there!" Taranee said, pointing. Will followed her gaze and saw what Taranee was looking at. A portal. Great, Will thought.
Irma, Cornelia, and everyone else had run out to get them. "What is it?" Rini asked, astonished.
"Well Rini, if we knew, we wouldn't be here wondering what it is, now would we?" Serena asked sarcastically. Crowds were pushing their way down the street, determined to get away from whatever this monster was.
"Hey!" Will yelled as she was pushed away from Serena and the others. She tracked down Irma and her other friends, but couldn't find Serena and all them.
"Come on", she said, "Now's are chance, there's a portal near by we can send this thing back to Meridian through"
The girls nodded and they made their way to find a place to transform.
"The glamorous life of a guardian", Irma said kiddingly as they went into an alley, "How sweet"
Will held up her hand, ignoring Irma as she almost always did when Irma started getting like that. The Heart of Candracar appeared floating above her palm.
"Ready guys?" Will asked. The girls nodded, and Will couldn't help but smirk.
"Okay then…Irma, water!" a blue water tear drop made it's way towards Irma
"Taranee, fire!" a red fire tear drop made flew out of the Heart towards Taranee.
"Cornelia, earth!" a green tear drop absorbed Cornelia.
"Hay Lin, air!" a silvery white tear drop flew towards Hay Lin.
A fifth tear drop, this one pink, absorbed Will in it's light. She felt the changes begin. Wings burst out of her back. Her normally baggy clothes were replaced by a skin tight skirt and shirt. The light died away, and she was soon looking at her friends again. Not that they looked like her friends anymore. They were dressed in their Guardian outfits.
"Lets go already!" Irma said, grinning, "I knew this vacation wouldn't be boring!"
"I'd give my cell phone for a boring vacation", Will muttered bitterly, "Lets go!"
"Will!" Serena yelled, "Will!"
"Irma!" Amy yelled desperately
"Taranee!" Rei cried, "Taranee where are you?.!"
Cornelia!" Lita yelled, "Cornelia!"
"Hay Lin!" Mina yelled, "It's no use", she said, stepping backwards, "I don't know where those girls got to, but they sure aren't here. We need Sailor Power, lets—"
"Look!" Rini yelled. The girls whirled around to find out what Rini was yelling about, and saw it. Five girls had appeared out of no where and were fighting the monster. At least, they looked like girls. Sort of. Kind of. They had the facial features of girls and everything, and the way they were dressed, they seemed like girls, but it was only when they really started fighting that Serena and her friends realized they weren't ordinary girls.
"Hey uh…you!" one of them yelled at the monster, "Yea, you! Over here! Water!"
A stream of water shot out of her hand at the monster, hitting it square in the face and knocking it backwards.
"Nice one!" one of the others said, "Try this one on for size though. Air!"
The wind around them picked up, and hit the monster.
"We have to get it through the portal", one of the girls said. There was something familiar about her, or it felt that way to Serena anyways. She looked at the girls weirdly. There was something familiar about all of them, now that she really thought about it…
"Here!" the girl with the water powers said, "I can take care of that. Water!"
A jet of water shot out of her hands and hit the monster, knocking it backwards into an alley. There was a crackling noise and a blue light shone brightly, dying away seconds later. The girls ran into the alley. There was another crackling noise, and then silence.
"That was close", Irma said as the girls made their way to find their friends. They had closed the portal, gone over a fence that led deeper into the alley, and then transformed back to their human selves and took off.
"At least no one got hurt", Will said tiredly.
"Hey!" Irma's head snapped around at the familiar voice of Serena, and she saw that the others were running towards them.
"Thank goodness you're okay", Amy said, "We were worried"
"Did you guys see the fairy things?" Rini asked excitedly. They must have seen us in our Guardian forms, Irma realized, I hope they didn't recognize us
"Fairy things?" Will asked, "No, what were they?"
"We don't know", Rei shrugged, "They fought that monster though, and got rid of him"
"Wow", Will said, "Talk about a full day"
"And it isn't even noon yet!" Serena said, "Which reminds me, we never got lunch. Lets go!"

And so here endeth another chapter. Next chapter…next chapter they will all see each other in their hero forms, and Serena realizes who the "fairy things" really are. Sound good? Whatever…review!
