"Killing her in the process"...that might have led to something, but oh, well. Today I juss found the karaoke version of one of my favorite songs ever: "REDEMPTION" from Gackt!!! I LUV that song! XD Okay, let's go back to the point here. (hehe)
Anna and Aoshi's relationship is gonna somewhat grow at this point in the story, but it's gonna grow a lot more in part 2. Too bad this episode's not about them. Let's start!!

Episode: A Brother's Dream

The classroom was nothing but silent. The students' eyes grew wider and wider as the second hand on the clock grew closer and closer to the twelve.

Anna (2:59 and 30 seconds, 2:59 and 31 seconds...come on...COME ON!!)

The tick of the hand made them twitch every single second. She couldnt believe it. Taking one and a half years at Crossroads Middle School in Tokyo was a blast. And finally moving on to high school was a great feeling. Anna wondered how it would feel if she was back in her world. By now, she'd already be in high school. But this was different. Deep down, Anna missed the feeling of being with her parents. Somehow...someway...she hoped to see them again.

Haruna "Remember: you don't have to be adults, but be someone that can take responsibility for their own actions. If you achieve that, you'll be better adults. And so..."

3...2...1...
RING!!

Haruna "Have a good summer break."

Next thing she knew, Anna was caught in a crowd that was rushing towards the door. Papers flew everywhere. Students were screaming their lungs out. The last day of Crossroads Middle Schol ended.

"Anna!"

After everyone disappeared within sight, Serena was found in the doorway with a cheery face. Anna gathered all her papers and headed out with her.

Anna "How does it feel to go to high school??

Serena "Like I've been finally set free. It's like we're adults now."

Anna "Didn't you just isten to Miss Haruna's sermon? Or were you spacing out again?"

Serena "She was saying a sermon?"

Yup...she spaced out.

Anna "Where are the others? I thought they were coming today."

Serena "They said they had plans and had to leave right away."

(A/N: They were meeting their boyfriends to celebrate.)

Anna sighed.

Anna "Well, Aoshi's busy preparing for the lessons. Can I go over to your house?"

Serena "Yeah. We can play Sailor V!"

Anna "Sweet! Let's go!"

They rushed out and took their final step in middle school. A race was decided as they sped towards the Tsukino residence.

Serena "I'm winning!"

Anna "No...way!"

Anna rushed ahead a little farther. This forced Serena to push herself...and become unaware of where she was stepping.
BAM!!
Anna skidded and wheeled around. Serena remained motionless as she laid face down on the pavement.

Anna "Serena?"

She slowly got up and rubbed her face.

Serena "...OW! Stupid crack."

Serena pulled her foot out of the crack in the pavement and sat up. Anna held out a hand and helped her up to her feet. They walked the way back to Serna's house and found Sammy and Rini.

Sammy "Serena, did you fall again?"

Serena "Quiet, you little twerp. We were racing."

Rini "You shouldn't be doing that, clumsy as you are."

Serena growled.

Anna "Hey, now. Come on. Let's just play Sailor V."

Anna motioned her to go inside the house while Serena grumbled.

Serena "Ungrateful little..."

Setting their bags aside, they enetered Serena's room and turned on the TV. Serena plugged in her XBox whille Anna uncoiled the controllers. Everything was set as they set themselves comfortably. The screen blinked and Sailor V appeared in her uniform. A little theme song played as the game turned to the main menu.

Anna "You're going down, Serena!"

Serena "Ha! I've practiced since last time! I'll blow you away!!"

Anna "Like what I'm doing now?"

Serena "WHAT!?"

The game already started. Serena struggled to catch up with Anna's formidable skill. Six rounds have passed since they began playing and Ana has been winning by a landslide. Serena whimpered again and again after every loss.

Anna "Serena, you need help in studies and video games."

Serena "I...I'm just warming up. Just wait."

Anna "I'm waiting. Hold on; I'll just get something to drink."

She went up and walked towards the door. There was a little crack in its opening before she swung it wide open.

Anna "Huh?"

Down on all fours, peeking inside Serena's room, Sammy stared up wide-eyed at Anna. He began looking scared.

Anna "...Hey, Sammy."

Serena stopped for a moment and looked out her door.

Serena "Sammy!? What are you doing here?"

His view kept switching from Serena to Anna. Sweat began to appear as he frantically stood up.

Sammy "I just...I-I mean...I'm..."

His stammering exacerbated Serena.

Serena "Well? What is it?"

After a moment, Sammy dashed from the scene and down the stairs. Anna watched him leave while Serena exhaled.

Serena "Gosh. The dweeb needs to learn how to speak up. Third time this week I caught him outside my door."

Anna "He's been doing this before?"

Serena "Yeah. And it always bothers me while I'm playing Sailor V."

The situation seemed wierd to Anna. Why would Sammy watch Serena play? She thought for a moment; there weren't enough clues."

Anna "I'll be right back."

Serena "Okay."

Anna descended the stairs, passing by Rini and looking through all rooms. At last, she found Sammy sitting by himself in the living room.

Anna "Sammy."

He looked up surprised and tried to turn away. Anna walked up and sat next to him.

Sammy "...Hey, Anna."

Anna "Why'd you run away? I haven't seen you since I stayed here. How've you been?"

Sammy "Fine, I guess...Is Serena mad?"

She looked towards the stairs.

Anna "...Frustrated. Either of you or because she's losing at Sailor V."

Sammy turned back to Anna in a flash.

Sammy "Serena doesn't lose."

Anna looked back at him. On his visage, a smile stretched across with a little chuckle.

Sammy "She's the best. She tries hard every day to be better than everyone. No matter how many times she falls, literally or figuratively, Serena gets back up and tries again. In the end, NO ONE can beat her. I dream to be just like big sis!"

She watched him with a smile. Sammy admired his sister too much to hate her. He goes past the diatribes and insults to see how Serena is really like. Anna didn't know what it was like to have siblings, but if she were Serena, she wouldn't hate Sammy. She wouldn't turn down an admirer.

Out of the blue, the telephone rang. Serena answered it and talked for a while.

Serena "Sammy! Mom wants you to do the grocery shopping!"

Sammy stood up and gave a thumbs up to Anna.

Sammy "It's a secret?"

Anna nodded. He tied on his shoes and walked to the front door. If only Serena knew how muc admiration she received from Sammy, she would see and treat him in a totally different perspective.

She stood and headed for the stairs once he left. Serena was already descending with Rini and they met halfway.

Serena "Did that brat go to the store yet?"

Anna "Yes...Listen, Serena. Why don't you go easy on-"

"AAH!!"

The piercing scream echoed throughout the second floor of the house. The girls' attention became fixated on the front door.

Rini "That sounded like Sammy!"

Anna "I sense someone. It's the Amazon Trio!"

Serena "Sammy, no!!"

"MOON COSMIC DREAM ACTION!!"
"SOLAR CRYSTAL POWER!!"


Fish Eye smirked with delight. The little boy's mirror seemed to have some worth. But it was put to the test when she walked up to him.

Fish "Don't worry, kid. Just one little peek won't hurt, right?"

She was wrong. Once Fish Eye's head was in the mirror, Sammy didn't even have the strength to scream. Sweat dripped down like mad. His palms were sweaty and moist. Teeth clenched within his tightly closed mouth. Veins began to bulge on hi temples, next to his wide-snapped eyes. The irises began to lose color.

Fish "What!? No way!"

Fish Eye finally pulled her head out and gave Sammy a chance to rest. He used all his energy to resist the pain. Sammy immedately fell into lasstidue and breathed deeply.

Fish "Once again, no Pegasus. What's the use? I'll just let Tiger's Eye and Hawk's Eye find it."

She summoned knives into her hand and readied to throw them at the mirror.

Sammy didn't understand what happened. Once he stepped out of his house, a strange woman cuffed him to a board and summoned some type of mirror. After what the woman did, it hurt as hell. He wished with all his heart that someone would come and save him, that Sailor Moon would come and save him. She could kick butt any time. But she wasn't around. The next person he could turn to was...

Sammy (Serena.)

He knew that she hated his guts, but somehow, maybe she could help.

"Back off, Miss Fashion Disaster!!"

Fish Eye turned to the house. Sammy gathered his last ounce of strength to look above the house. Three figures stood tall and proud while beaming down at them.

Mini "Harming innocent brothers is against our laws!"

Galaxy "Dreaming about role models is too precious for people like you to play with!"

Moon "We stand for love and justice! And in the name of the moon, we shall punish you!"

They somersaulted off the roof and landed five feet from Fish Eye.

Fish "Why don't you leave us alone? Don't you have bigger fish to fry?"

Galaxy "You're big enough, FISH Eye. Get ready to be barbequed."

"SOLAR HACHIREN CROSS!!"

Sailor Galaxy charged at Fish Eye, but her adversary simply waved her had. A protective barrier appeared and Salor Galaxy bounced off to the side. She skidded on the ground and glared at Fish Eye.

Fish "I'm too good for you, so I'll leave an easier guest. You ready, Raider?"

A water portal appeared next to her. A young woman steped out in khaki brown shorts and a tight tank top. Pouches were strapped to her arms and legs. Brown hair dangled her head in a braid. She wore hiking boots and wrist length gloves.

Raider "Ready for anything, boss."

Fish "Show them what you got."

Raider suddenly charged at Sailor Galaxy. The scouts held her daggers out front in an X-shape to defend herself. But the enemy revealed a kunai knife from her side pouch. Together, the opposing fighters struggled for the better power.

Galaxy "Give it up."

Sailor Galaxy brought up a knee jab into Raider's gut. Her opponent staggered back while regaining her stance.

Raider "We're just getting started."

From behind her back, Raider unleashed a pistol.

Mini "Sailor Galaxy!"

Moon "She's gonna shoot you!"

Galaxy's eyes sharpened. She stood her ground.
BAM!!
Raider fired the pistol...at nothing! The scout disappeared at the blink of an eye.

Raider "Grr! Where'd you go!?"

Raider looked all through her surroundings. At one area, an odd amount of leaves fell at once.
BAM!!
Raider shot there as well. A figure jumped out of the tree and landed in the shadows of another.

Raider "Playing hide and seek, huh!? Well..."

Her pistol suddenly aimed at Mini Moon and Sailor Moon.

Raider "Say sayonara!"

Mini "Aah!"

BAM!!
Out of the shadows, Galaxy charged into Raider at full collision. The enemy fell back while Sailor Galaxy landed on her feet.

Galaxy "Let's finish this!"

Mini "Uh-huh!"

"CRYSTAL TWINKLE BELL!!"

In a flash, Pegasus flew down from the sky. The girls watched while Fish Eye smirked.

Fish "So, Hawk's Eye's suspicions were correct..."

Sailor Galaxy overheard her conclusion. Did they suspect that Mini Moon was associated with Pegasus!? If it was true, she was in serious trouble. Galaxy couldn't let that happen.

She thought of a plan, hoping it would work. All that was left was the trust of Pegasus.

Galaxy "Pegasus!!"

The winged horse looked at Sailor Galaxy. The others stared distraught.

Galaxy "Lend me your power!! Help me!! Please!!"

Fish "What's going on!?"
But Pegasus's horn glowed. He aimed it at Sailor Galaxy and her body glowed as well. She felt power surging though her as she summoned the daggers again.

"MEGA HACHIREN CROSS!!"

Raider had no chance of moving. Her body turned immobile as Sailor Galaxy suddenly appeared behaind her in the speed of light, crouched t the ground. The scout's eyes burned brightly and Raider slowly disappeared from existence.

Fish (That's impossible!...Is she really...?)

Galaxy "That's right."

Sailor Galaxy turned to Fish Eye. The light in her eyes faded as the borrowed power disappeared like Raider.

Galaxy "Pegasus resides in my dream. Spread the word to Tiger and Hawk."

Fish Eye smirked.

Fish "I'll do well to remember that."

She created a water portal and jumped through. Once she disappeared, Sammy's mirror vanished as he fell to the ground. The red board faded away and was never seen again.

Moon "Sammy!"

As Sailor Moon ran to the boy, Mini Moon walked until Sailor Galaxy caught her eye. Her face became worried while Galaxy remained impassive.

Mini "They'll come after you, y'know."

Galaxy "Yeah...but Pegasus isn't in my dream. You wouldn't happen to know the truth, would you?"

Galaxy tried to glance at her, but Mini Moon looked away. She knew the little girl was hiding the truth. She risked her life at saving Rini, but she had yet to learn everything. Now that they "know" where Pegasus is, Anna had to be on super alert. She didn't know who the next victim was...to make it even more frustrating, it could have been her.


Just a little bit more and I'll be in the Stars arc. We're almost done!! Damn, this was long. Sorry for such a long story, but it was fun writing it.

Next time on Sailor Galaxy Chronicles:

Anna "Is Pegasus in your dream?"

Rini "That's the only way he survives."

Darien "The dream has to be right for everyone."

Fish "We'll just check every single annoying scout."

Anna (I'm sorry...everyone.)
