Sammy's Innocent Love

"Nephrite!" Queen Beryl shouted. "You have failed me again, this time it was that hedgehog Sonic and his bratty friend Tails, but how goes things with the Sailors?"

"You're Highness..." Nephrite said. "I'm completing this task."

"Ohh hohohohoho!" Laughed a male voice then in rose petals, Zoisite appeared. "Oh it seems like your having a hard time against both teams of our enemies! I would be more than happy to give you a hand, odds are our operations are bound to go better with both of us rather than one, what do you think?" He asked Beryl.

"Good idea." Beryl agreed. "Nephrite, work with Zoisite and.."

"I refuse." Nephrite objected.

"Oh dear." Zoisite said. "Do you intend to defy our queen?"

"I'm not doing this for her!" Nephrite grunted. "I'm doing this for myself!" Beryl shot Nephrite with a mean look, but he didn't seem to care. Nephrite then left.

"GRRRR!" Beryl growled. "Nephrite!"

"Good." Zoisite thought. "Everything is going just as I planned. She will lose confidence in Nephrite."

At Serena's House

It was a normal morning, except one main factor Serena was up early.

"Hey Sammy, it seems your friend Mika has won a French doll contest." Father said reading the newspaper.

"Really?" Sammy squealed.

"Mika's mother is a famous doll maker as well." Mother said. "Like mother, like daughter."

Serena held out her breakfast spoon like a microphone, she was imitating a news reporter. "So Sammy how does it feel to have a celebrity for a girlfriend?"

"Stop it!" Sammy blushing and he left the table. He got his bag on and went to the front door. "Stupid Serena! You're gonna be late again! I'm leaving!" She checked her watch and she panicked

"I'm gonna be late again!" Then she darted out the door and eventually made it to school.

"Out in the hallway with you!" Ms. Haruna said, throwing Serena out in the hallway again, apparently just waking up early isn't enough.

Meanwhile Sonic was out going on a run by himself. He was hunting for chaos emeralds but it was going to be harder since Tuxedo Mask has the emerald he once had.

Sonic was running in the forest as he soon found a cave. He went to look down in it and saw a glow.

"Hey." Sonic said with anticipation, he sped down the cave and he saw just what he expected, the white chaos emerald. "Score!" He shouted with glee. As he approached it Knuckles dropped from the roof of the cave.

"How did you know I was here?" Sonic asked.

"Hello Sonic." Knuckles said. "I'm sorry but you will not be taking that emerald."

"Oh yeah?" Sonic said, taking a defensive stance. "How do you plan to stop me?"

"Like this!" Then Knuckles punched the ground of the cave and it created a cave-in.

"No Knuckles!" Sonic shouted. "We will both be crushed!"

"As long as you don't have the emerald!" Knuckles smirked. Sonic revved up his feet and sped out of the cave dogging falling rocks. He made it out of the cave and looked up. Then Knuckles broke out of the roof of the cave with the chaos emerald in hand. "I think I will keep this instead of relocating it, see ya!" Then he glided back to the floating island, which is still grounded. Then the cave completely collapsed.

"Looks like the fourth emerald has been found." Sonic said. "I should let everyone know, and he dashed back towards the workshop."

Later School ended and Serena and Molly were walking together.

"It's amazing how you never get tired of being late every day." said Molly

"Oh stop it!" Serena scoffed, two little girls approached Serena and Molly.

"Excuse me." One of the girls asked. "Are you Sammy's older sister?"

"Yes." Serena said.

"He's mean!" The other girl said.

"What did he do?" Serena asked anxiously.

"Today at school." The girl said. "Mika decided to give Sammy the doll she used to win the contest. Then all the guys started to tease them both by singing songs like 'Mika and Sammy sitting in a tree!' Sammy threw the doll back at her but she didn't catch it. It hit the floor and broke, he didn't even apologize for hurting Mika's feelings."

"Please talk to Sammy about this." The other girl requested.

"As an older sister you should have a word with him." Molly said Serena had a disgruntled look on her face.

"Anyway just let his wise and pretty older sister handle this!" Serena said.

Meanwhile at Nephrite's abandoned church.

"The Stars know everything." Nephrite said gazing at his celestial map. "Orpheus is playing her harp of sorrow, she has chosen the girl, Mika Kayama."

Back at Serena's house she ran up to Sammy's door and banged on his door. "Sammy your sister needs to talk to you!"

"Come in." He said nervously Serena stomped her way to Sammy and she pounded on his head.

"Ouch! What was that for!?" Sammy shouted.

"For Mika!" Serena said. Sammy had a shocked look on his face, he was shocked how word of this reached his sister. "You broke her doll today, go apologize to her immediately!"

"I don't want to hear about that anymore! Get out!" Sammy snapped trying to force Serena out of his room.

"Fine." Serena said with a warning tone. "I guess I will just have to tell Mom and Dad about this, what do you think will happen?" Sammy's look froze on his face.

"It will be easy, just do as I say." Serena said.

"Fine!" Sammy sighed, he then went over to Mika's house and he began to practice by talking to himself. "I'm so sorry I'll make this up to you even if it takes the rest of my life. Ok I'll go with that." He tried to cross the street, but Nephrite in his big expensive red car went past him. "Wow what a cool car!" He gasped.

Nephrite stepped out and approached the doorbell and rang it.

"Hello?" Mika's mother asked, over the speaker.

"Hi I'm Maxfield Stanton. I spoke with you on the phone earlier." Nephrite said.

"They have a guest, I'll come back later." Sammy said watching. Nephrite was welcomed inside the house and Mika was brought out of her room to the front couch where she had a very gloomy look on her face.

"I thought that Pierre Dumoe was the only one who could make such classic dolls, but this has changed my mind." Nephrite asked.

"My you're such a flatterer!" Mika's mother laughed.

"I see that your daughter is also very talented." Nephrite added. "The doll you entered in the contest the other day was wonderful."

"Mika why don't you show him the doll you're making now?" Her mother suggested. Mika brought out her doll. It was a female with brown hair, it had a sad look on its face.

"Wow this is great." Nephrite said holding the doll. "Her sad expression is just so.." he touched it's forehead and he cast a spell on it in his head, "monster, Jumo! Bring Mika's energy to its peak level and steal it!" "Would you mind making ten more dolls just like this one?"

"Ten?" Mika asked.

"They will sell out very quickly." Nephrite said.

"We are holding a private exhibition starting this Saturday please come and see it!" Mika's mother said excited.

"Will do." Nephrite said and with that he walked out the door and left. Within one hour Mika already completed one.

"Wow you're quick." Mika's mother said.

"I know." Mika said. "I all of a sudden feel motivated. Now I have to make the second one."

"It's getting late, you should get some sleep." Mika's mother said. "You have school tomorrow."

"I'll be fine." Mika said with a blank look on her face.

"Come on." Mika's mother said. "Let's clean up." She reached for her hand, but Mika slapped it away and pushed her mother down. And the doll she just finished grew a devilish look on its face. Her mother frightened at her sudden aggression.

Back at the workshop Sonic was telling Tails what happened.

"So Knuckles has the fourth emerald?" Tails asked.

"Yes so Knuckles has one, Eggman has one, the Sailors have one, and Tuxedo Mask has one."

"Things will really get crazy with the Dark Kingdom, Eggman, and now Knuckles hunting the emeralds." Tails said.

"It's time we kick things up a notch." Sonic said cracking his fist.

A couple minutes after Nephrite left Sammy walked up to the front door. And when her mom answered it she seemed bothered and frightened.

"I'm sorry Sammy." Mika's mom said. "Mika was working on her dolls all day and she refuses to come out for anything, she won't even listen to me."

"Let me see her!" Sammy suggested. They went inside and Mika's Mother began to knock on the door.

"Mika!" called her mother "Sammy's here!"

"I don't wanna see him!" Mika responded.

"Mika!" Sammy called. "I need to…."

"GO AWAY!" Mika screamed Sammy returned home to ponder what went wrong, Serena walked inside carrying two drinks.

"Here you go!" Serena said, handing him a drink.

"What's this?" Sammy asked.

"As a caring sister, I can't ignore my little brother when he's upset." Serena winked. "You did apologize didn't you?"

"Well…" Sammy said, and he explained the situation.

"I didn't know that." Serena said.

"Mika's always been so sweet I couldn't believe it." Sammy said, hanging his head in his hands. "Did I hurt her feelings that badly?"

"Cheer up." Serena said then she was hit with an insight. "Oh I know! Why don't you bring her a present next time you visit? Girls love getting presents!"

Serena was sitting on her bed when Luna asked her what's going on, it didn't take long to tell her what's happening.

"Wow you're very sharp today!" Luna said, feeling quite surprised.

"There's nothing I wouldn't do for my little brother." She said with glee

"We should go take a look at Mika." Luna suggested. "If she's so fixated on making dolls, sounds like the dark kingdom is behind this."

"Ok but let's have Ami and Rei handle this." Serena laughed.

"SERENA!" Luna snapped.

"Fine!" Serena sighed.

Later she managed to call Ami, and then they showed up and they all got together outside Mika's fence. Luna was climbing up the tree growing on the outside of the fence, the branches were growing over the fence.

"Do you see anything?" Ami asked.

"No." Luna said peering through the window. "The curtains are closed."

"According to Sammy," Serena said. "Mika hasn't been going to school either."

"Hey." Ami said pointing at a wall across the street. "There is a private exhibition that starts tomorrow."

Sammy was walking down the street on his way home from school, and he saw a Sailor V poster in the Arcade window, and he remembered, Mika likes Sailor V but she likes Sailor Moon More.

"Ok!" Sammy said. "That's what I'm going to get her."

Later Sammy was working on an incredibly odd looking figurine out of clay at his desk.

"Hey." Serena said looking at what he was doing. "A present for Mika?"

"Yeah." Sammy said.

"Oh how cute." Serena moaned. "She will love that piggy!"

"It's supposed to be Sailor Moon!" Sammy grumbled.

"Wow." Serena said slightly peeved. "If Sailor Moon really saw it she would cry!"

"But it's the thought that counts!" Sammy argued.

"Well she is the envoy of love and justice after all." Serena said.

"Right." Sammy said. "But what's interesting is apparently she knows of the animals that have been in the news, I would like to meet them, apparently they can talk!"

"Yeah especially if you like a slick talking speed demon and a super cute engineer." Serena grumbled.

"What was that?" Sammy asked.

"Oh Nothing!" Serena said defensively.

Over the past couple days Rei has been going out on dates this time it was on a date to the doll exhibit hosted by Nephrite.

Inside Nephrite was talking to Mika's mother.

"It's wonderful." Nephrite said, this exhibition seems like a success.

"Thanks." Mika's mother said.

"Where is Miss Mika?" Nephrite said.

"She's making the last one in the back room." Her mother responded. "She worked herself to exhaustion to make those dolls."

"Really?" Nephrite smirked.

Ami was already at the exhibit. She was hiding Luna inside a picnic basket. She poked her head out and saw Rei and quickly pointed her out.

"Wow they're so adorable Darien!" Rei said looking at some of her dolls. Darien of course looked bored out of his skull, you could see on his face that he really wished he wasn't there right now.

"What do you think?" Rei asked.

"Oh! Sorry." Darien said, jerking his head up giving his attention back to Rei. "I'm not a big fan of dolls."

"You don't like dolls?" Rei asked.

"No it's not like I hate them." Darien said.

"Good!" Rei said, then she tugged on his arm and dragged him across the room. Nephrite was just passing by and they both gave each other a cold look.

"Can I help you?" Darien asked.

"No." Nephrite said. "I mistook you for someone else."

Later Serena arrived with Sammy at the exhibit.

"So how's Mika?" Serena asked Mika's mom.

"Well, actually." Mika's mother said. "She's in the back anteroom I'm sure she'll be very happy to see you."

They walked over to the room, Rei noticed that Serena was here out of the corner of her eye. Darien felt really energized, he looked at his pocket and he took out a glowing gem, he couldn't remember when he ever got it but it makes him feel really strong.

Mika continued to work on more dolls, and her face looked more evil and devilish.

"Finished!" she said, one doll's hair began to fly around like crazy, the door opened and Sammy and Serena entered.

"Mika." Sammy said. "I'm sorry I made this for you." He held out his poorly made Sailor Moon figurine. Then a swirl of Dark Magic emerged from the doll

"The energy level has peaked!" Nephrite thought. "Go Jumo!"

Then a giant doll with separated body parts and short green hair emerged out of the doll and drained Mika's energy. Sammy ran over to Mika but Jumo shoved Sammy to the wall and he was knocked out. Naturally he dropped the Sailor Moon figurine and Jumo smashed it to pieces by stomping on it. Serena gasped and then she transformed.

"Moon Prism Power Make Up!"

"I'm the warrior of love and Justice!" Sailor Moon called. "You break Sammy's doll he worked so hard to make! His heart is in it!" And she did her famous pose. "In the name of the moon, I shall right wrongs and triumph over evil and that means you!"

Then Jumo sicked a doll sitting next to her on Sailor Moon, it grew fangs and it flew at her Sailor Moon. She leaped out of the way and then out a nearby window Jumo broke through the wall and went after Sailor Moon, luckily Sailor Mars and Sailor Mercury along with Luna arrived on the scene. Jumo unleashed her claws and charged at Sailor Moon but Sailor Mercury acted quickly.

"Bubble Spray!"

The Fog stopped Jumo in her tracks, Sailor Moon took a sigh of relief.

"We should have come a little later." Sailor Mars groaned.

"Watch out!" Luna cried, two little dolls charged at Sailor Moon but Sailor Mars retaliated with an ofuda.

"Rin,Pyo,Tou,Sha,Kai,Jin,Retsu,Zai,Zen! Begon, evil spirits!"

The spell was broken and the dolls returned to normal. But the sounds of chokes filled the air Sailor Mars, and Mercury turned their heads to see that Jumo had Sailor Moon by the throat Sailor Mars also retaliated.

"Fire Soul!"

The fireball made Jumo separate from its hands but the hands didn't release Sailor Moon.

"Your attacks are Useless!" Jumo said and she launched her forearm piece at the two Sailors they moved aside and they managed to slice a small amount of Rei's hair off. Ami activated her visor and scanned Jumo.

"Her weak spot is her right ankle!" Sailor Mercury announced, but sadly Jumo was still choking Sailor Moon, but a red rose flew and completely smashed the hands. They all looked and of course, Tuxedo Mask had arrived.

"Wow that was some rose!" Sailor Mercury said amazed.

"Do it now!" Tuxedo Mask said, Then Sailor Moon readied her Tiara.

"Moon Tiara Action!"

The Tiara flew and it hit the right ankle and destroyed Jumo. The other Sailors rushed to Sailor Moon and checked her.

"Hey!" Tuxedo Mask called, the Sailors looked at him and he took out the Chaos emerald. "Tell Sonic I said Thanks!" And then he left.

"That explains why his rose was much stronger." Sailor Mercury said.

Mika's energy returned and she saw Sammy's unconscious body.

"Sammy!" She cried as she ran to him. He arose from his rest.

"You're awake." Sailor Moon said, silhouetted in the drapes of a window.

"SAILOR MOON!" Mika squealed.

"I punished the bad monster!" Sailor Moon said. "I hope you two get along well together forever." Then she leaped from the window.

"Hey wait!" Sammy called "Where's the talking animals?" Then he noticed the mess on the floor of Sammy's present. "Look what happened to the present I made for you…"

"For Me?" Mika said happily.

"I'm sorry about what happened, what I did the other day." Sammy uttered

"It's ok, after all, you came to my rescue!" Mika said.

The next day at Sammy's school Mika had returned.

"Hey Sammy." Mika said, she handed him a Sailor Moon Figurine that looked absolutely flawless. "This did for what you did for me the other day."

"Sailor Moon is so cool, you know!" Sammy squealed hugging the figurine.

"Oh you like her that much!" Mika snapped with a jealous tone and she stomped off.

"Oh that's not what I meant!" Sammy cried, he smiled and gave a sigh. "It's not easy being a popular guy."
