Chapter 2

"Serena! Get off my tail!" Luna whisper-shouted.

"Sorry!" Serena took a step back. "I'll just hold you, ok?"

Serena turned on her mini flashlight and picked up Luna. She opened the door, just enough for her to see through.

"Luna, look! There's Mom!" Serena pointed to her messed up mother, as she baked more cookies.

"She doesn't look so good. You should talk to her. Remember what to say?"

"Yes, Luna we talked about it five minutes ago!" Serena rolled her eyes and took a deep breath. Then she stepped out to face her mom.

"Hi Mom. How are those cookies going?" Serena forced a smile.

Serena's twitchy mother faced her. "Great. Want another? Here's one for your cat." She stuffed a cookie in Luna's mouth.

Oh crap, Serena thought. Luna can't go crazy too!

But it was too late. Serena raced Luna upstairs.

"Come back down for more!" her mom called after her.

Serena lied Luna down on a pillow. Then quickly raced to her communicator and called Amy.

"Amy!" Serena exclaimed when she picked up. "Something terrible has happened. Come over NOW!"

"You sound serious!" Amy said. "I'm on my way!"

A few minutes later Amy and Serena were huddled around the passed out Luna.

"Hmm..." Amy rubbed her chin thoughtfully. "Pass me a qutip, Serena."

Serena handed Amy a qutip. Amy stuck it in Luna's mouth and got a sample of the cookie. She scanned it with her computer.

"This could take a few minutes. I need to do some tests but it won't take too long." Amy started rapidly typing.

Serena stroked Luna, gently on the back. "Don't worry, Luna. You'll be ok."

A few minutes later...

"Done! This cookie is definitely infected." Amy exclaimed.

"I knew it! It's gotta be the megaverse!"

"The dough is infected. We have to find that dough and stop the sales."

Serena thought for a moment. Then came an idea.

"How about I tell my mom I'm going to buy some more for her and ask where she got it."

"Ok," Amy said. "We've gotta hurry though so it's now or never."

Serena and Amy headed downstairs and to the kitchen. Sure enough, her mom was still baking cookies.

"Hey Mom. I'm going to buy more dough for you. What store did you get the dough from?"

Serena's mother looked at Serena and Amy. Amy held back a gasp.

"The market we always go to. Thank you, Serena. Now hurry up before this batch cools."

Amy and Serena walked out and headed to the market.

When they were out of earshot, Amy said, "You're mom looks like she's in really bad shape."

"I know. I hope we can make her better."

Amy and Serena stopped in front of the store.

"Ready?" Amy asked

"Ready," Serena said.

Amy pulled out her pen. "Mercury Star Power!"

Serena held her pin. "Moon Crystal Power!

The two of them were transformed and ready to face whatever was waiting for them in that store.

They entered the store and ducked inside an aisle The only person there was a guy with a robot army.

"Soon everyone in this town will be infected," the man said. "And we will finally find the imperium silver crystal!"

Sailor Moon looked down at her pin with the imperium silver crystal.

That guy is looking for my crystal? Sailor Moon thought.

"And then," the guy continued, "evil will rule over everyone!"

That was the sailor scouts cue. They popped out of the aisle and faced the guy.

"Not if we can help it!" they said in unison.

"Huh?" the guy looked them up and down. "Who do you girls think you are going against me?"

"I am Sailor Moon!"

"I am Sailor Mercury!"

"I fight for love and I fight for justice. And on behalf of the moon..."

"And mercury...

"We will punish you!"

"I hope you can fight as well as you speak because I don't play games." The guy pointed at the scouts. "Attack!"

All the robots started crowding around the scouts.

"Shine Aqua Illusion!"

Sailor Mercury froze the robots. They fell to the ground and shattered.

But the guy was already sending another batch of robots.

"We're outnumbered, Sailor Moon. What do we do?" Mercury asked.

"Venus Love Chain Encircle!"

The robots got wrapped up and fell to the ground.

"Call the rest of the sailor scouts that's what, Mercury," Sailor Venus said.

"Mars, Jupiter, Venus. Right on time!" Sailor Moon said.

Suddenly the girls chatting got interrupted with a boom. A huge robot towered over them.

"Prepare to die!" the robot said.

"Who do you think you are?" Sailor Jupiter said

"Jupiter don't," Mars said.

"Why don't you pick on someone your own size?" Sailor Jupiter continued. "I'll show you!"

"Jupiter Thunder Clap...ZAP!"

The robot weakened when it got hit.

"Your turn Sailor Moon," Sailor Mars said.

"Alright!" Sailor Moon said.

"Moon Scepter Elimination!"

The robot fell down crushing the counter and almost that guy. Then it turned to moon dust.

"Mark my word, Sailor Moon. I will get that crystal if it's the last thing I do!" the guy shouted. "Remember me! The great Mederson!"

And with that he disappeared into thin air and took the infected dough with him.

"Mom!" Serena rushed into the kitchen but no one was there. She raced upstairs to her room.

Sure enough her mom was lying in her bed fast asleep and she looked totally back to normal. Next, Serena headed to her room.

Luna was sound asleep on her bed and she looked fine and well rested. Serena flopped down on her bed, cuddled Luna, and fell fast asleep.

Thanks for reading Chapter 2. I hope you liked it! Peace out!
