Chapter One C: The Mansion No One Should Enter

Rei had walked out of the room and held the key in her hand. She began to think where she could use this key. She began to remember the rooms on both floors that she remembered were locked and tried each of them on the second floor, but the key didn't fit in any of them. She began thinking before she headed down to the first floor. She remembered the locked door close to the kitchen and headed towards that area of the mansion. She stopped in front of the door and placed the key inside; the door unlocked and she headed inside. It lead to a library full of books.

"Mercury would love this place." She sighed, before she noticed the grey monster walking in the room, "Great, I gotta be really careful now."

She slowly began walking around. It seemed like the monster had kept his distance from her as she headed to the bookshelf to read a page from a book. She noticed the handwriting looked familiar, but thought nothing of it. She placed the book back on the shelf and headed towards the door. She heard footsteps behind her.

"It's following me, I have to get out of here!"

She opened the door as she ran out out of the room, she could hear the thing running after her. She didn't know where to hide, she opened the door leading to the bathroom, she slammed the door shut and locked it. She stayed quiet and waited for the the sound of the thing to die down. She waited inside that bathroom for five minutes, she slowly unlocked the door and began to open the door slowly. She glanced from the left and from the right, just incase the thing was waiting for her to leave. Nothing was there. She sighed in relief and headed to the second floor where she ran into Minako.

"WHO'S THERE?!" Minako grabbed her chain belt and went to attack Rei; when she had noticed it was Rei she wrapped the belt around her waist, "Oh, Rei! I'm glad to see you!"

"I'm glad to see you safe as well, Minako." She paused, "You're the second person I have found."

"Yeah, I was gonna find Mamoru because I lost sight of Usagi somewhere." She giggled nervously.

"Where did you see her last?" Asked Rei.

"On the third floor, I will go with you when we go tell Mamoru where we are and that we are okay."

"Alright, sounds good." Rei replied as they headed to the room where Mamoru was.

The steel metal door was closed, there was a sound of a drill coming from inside the room. Rei walked up to the door and knocked.

"Mamoru, I've returned." She paused, "I found Minako."

"Oh, I'll be there in a minute." He replied.

Rei and Minako stood there confused about what he could be doing in there.

"What are you even doing, Mamoru?" Asked Minako.

"Oh, I'll tell you later." He said as he opened the door, "Where's Usako?"

"We are gonna go as a group to go and find her." Rei answered.

"I lost sight of her somewhere on the third floor, we should go together." Minako added.

"I agree, let's hurry." Mamoru said as he shuts the steel door behind him.

"Hopefully we won't run into that thing." Minako shivered.

"Hopefully Usagi's okay." Rei nodded in agreement as they headed to the third floor.

When they had gotten to the third floor, Rei began looking through the doors, two of them were locked, but the rest were unlocked. Minako and Mamoru headed inside to one room noticing something in the corner.

"We are gonna start looking in this room seeing if we can find a way out." Minako said.

"Alright, I will head into this room to see if I can find Usagi." Rei replied, "I'll come back here when I find her."

"Be careful, Mars." Mamoru said.

"I will, you guys be careful as well." Rei nodded as she headed into the other room.

It was white room, with a black grand piano in the center of it. Rei sighed a little as she began to look for clues. She heard someone enter the room.

"Rei?" A familiar voice asked.

She glanced at the person. It was who she was hoping it would be.

"Thank god!" Rei sighed in relief.

"Where are the others?" Asked Usagi, brushing her hair from her shoulders.

"In the room acrossed from here . . . Didn't you see them?"

"There's a small library through those doors behind me that I have been hiding in."

"At least you're unharmed."

"Are you doing alright?" Usagi asked.

"Yeah, we should head to the other two and see how we can get out of here." Rei replied.

Usagi nodded as she followed Rei to the other room. Both of them didn't realise that the thing was inside that room. Minako and Mamoru had been fighting it.

"Dammit!" Minako hissed in pain, grabbing a hold of her bleeding arm.

"Usako!" Yelled Mamoru.

"Mamo!" Usagi screamed back.

"Rei, take Usagi and get out of here!" Ordered Minako.

"We are sailor guardians, we don't leave our comrades." Rei paused, "We are staying to help you."

"Don't be stupid!" Mamoru paused, "Venus and I have this, just get the hell out of here!"

Usagi shook her head.

"We aren't leaving you guys, we are here to help!" Usagi said as she began fighting.

Rei came in as well. The grey monster attacked all of them.

"YOU WON'T ESCAPE!" It's sickly voice hissed

"Tuxedo La Smoking Bomber!"

"Venus Love-Me Chain!"

"Burning Mandala!"

"Moon Gorgeous Meditation!"

The grey monster turned to Usagi and was ready to attack before it fell in defeat and began fading away. Mamoru ran up to Usagi and hugged her.

"You idiot!" He paused, "But, thank you for your help."

"We are fight together as one, don't we?" Giggled Usagi.

"I guess you're right." Minako said, standing next to Rei.

"We should head to the second floor and find a room to hide in for the night." She paused, "Tomorrow's game plan will be to look for a way out."

"I agree, let's go." Minako answered as they all headed back down to the second floor.
