Come see my site at http://chibisenshi. I have a contest going on.
Disclaimer: I do not own Sailor Moon. I created the Chibi Senshi. I also did not create the Cosmic Senshi fuku. Ashley designed the fuku at http://yuninaoki. Chapter Six: A New Look and An Abduction By Angel Raye
Everyone stared at the new Cosmic Jupiter and Cosmic Pluto. The skirt and collar were the same color as before except they each had a stripe the color of their mothers' fukus at the bottom of the skirt. Their gloves were still white but now had both colors at the armbands. There were also sequins on the gloves. They both wore white boots with a heart in front and their tiaras had heart jewels. Like the Moon Senshi they would be wearing their transformation broaches on their front bows.
"How pretty," Hope gushed. "Are we going to get those too"
"One day," Luna replied. "But you're not old enough yet. Neither are these two really but in light of our current enemy we felt this was necessary"
Faith walked up to the Cosmic Senshi and eyes the skirt closely. "What is that?" she demanded pointing to the bottom of the skirts.
"It's lace," Cosmic Jupiter replied and sure enough there was lace at the bottom of the skirts.
"Oh yuck!" Faith shouted. "You mean I'm going to have to wear that yucky stuff when I become a Cosmic Senshi. No way! I'd rather stay a Chibi Senshi for all eternity"
"You may be changing your mind when you're in your hundreds and still calling yourself Chibi Uranus," Minako dryly told her.
"Luna can you tell us what our new attacks are," Cosmic Pluto asked.
"You'll know what they are when it's time to use them," Luna replied. "In the meantime this should give us an advantage over the enemy"
"Let's hope so," Serenity sighed and everyone nodded in agreement.
"You idiot!" Lady Ashi roared at Dark Chibi Uranus. "How could you go off and let Sailor Jupiter kidnap Dark Chibi Neptune"
"Forgive me my lady," Dark Chibi Uranus replied. "It all happened so fast and I thought she was behind me"
"You're a failure and I don't allow failures," Lady Ashi snarled. "This is going to be the end for you. Prepare to die"
"Wait Lady Ashi," Dark Chibi Mercury came forward. "We're already down by one and we shouldn't lose another"
"With the stronger powers given to some of you we're still at an advantage," Lady Ashi snapped, irritated at being interrupted.
"But why don't we let her redeem herself," Dark Chibi Mercury suggested. "Let her think of a rescue plan"
Lady Ashi pondered the idea for a moment. Then she looked at Dark Chibi Uranus. "Think fast or I will destroy you"
"We need to kidnap one of the Chibi Senshi," Dark Chibi Uranus quickly recommended.
"And how would that solve anything?' Lady Ashi demanded.
"Whichever one we take the dark counterpart goes back in her place and infiltrates the palace," Dark Chibi Uranus replied. "The enemy will never know we have one of theirs"
"An interesting idea," Lady Ashi admitted. "Very well. Work at kidnapping one of the Chibi Senshi. When that's done whoever the counterpart is will go in her place. But remember any failure will result in your death"
"Yes my lady," Dark Chibi Uranus replied.
Dark Hope sat in her cell fuming. She couldn't believe the situation she was in. She was also furious that her twin would go off and abandon her to be taken by the enemy. Since her transformation wand had been taken, Dark Hope didn't have any way of escape. All of her powers were gone without the transformation wand.
She heard footsteps coming down the prison corridor. Curious Dark Hope peered through the bars and saw it was Sailor Uranus. Dark Hope wondered if she could manipulate Uranus into letting her go. "Haruka-papa," she said softly.
Sailor Uranus paused outside the cell and glared at Dark Hope. "Don't call me that," she ordered. "I'm not your Haruka-papa"
"Don't be so quick to deny me," Dark Hope advised. "I'm more like your Hope than you think"
"My Hope is a kind hearted young lady who would never do what you've done so far," Uranus pointed out. "As far as I'm concerned you're just an evil clone of her." With that she walked away. Dark Hope stared after her. "Just wait and see Haruka-papa," she whispered. "You'll find out how alike we are."
The next afternoon after most of the girls had gotten home from school, Daisy had decided to study for her junior high entrance exam outside since it was a nice day. Makoto had agreed to let her only if Usagi would go out and study with her. Daisy had lousy study habits but the princess, unlike her mother didn't. Since it was a nice day Usagi agreed. So the two found a shady area under a tree and sat down to study. Usagi had a math test the next day and really had to study. However, after about a half hour of quiet studying Usagi spoke. "So where did Maggie have to go after school today? Annika told me she left in a real hurry"
"I don't know," Daisy sighed. "She's been acting really weird lately. She won't even tell me what's going on. I think both Faith and Annika know something but neither of them will crack"
"Faith won't and if we interrogate Annika and upset her Rei will be furious," Usagi added. "So I guess we're both in the dark"
"Here comes Maggie," Daisy exclaimed and Usagi looked up. Sure enough there was Maggie walking in the gate. Daisy called her. "Maggie"
Maggie walked over to them. She was carrying a shopping bag and had her hair tucked up in a hat. "Hi girls," she greeted them politely.
"Where have you been?" Usagi asked.
"Shopping," Maggie replied. "I bought a new outfit"
"Let's see it," Daisy eagerly requested.
"At dinner," Maggie promised and then she left quickly calling a hurried "Bye," over her shoulder.
"I told you she's been acting weird," Daisy muttered. "Usually she shows me her new things right away"
"And why is she wearing that hat?" Usagi added. "Maggie never wears hats and she certainly doesn't tuck her hair up like that"
"I guess we'll find out at dinner," Daisy sighed as she turned back to her studying.
Maggie managed to get to her chambers without running into anyone else. Her father wasn't home and her mother was at the Gates of Time so she was by herself except for Chronos. "Where have you been Maggie?' the little kitten asked.
"I've decided since I'm a Cosmic Senshi now I need to stop looking like a little kid," Maggie told him.
"What did you do," Chronos asked. Maggie blushed and removed her hat. Her hair fell down. "You got your hair cut," Chronos exclaimed. Maggie had her long tresses cut to her shoulders.
"Don't you think it makes me look older?" Maggie asked anxiously.
"It does," Chronos replied. "You look beautiful"
Maggie smiled and dug out her new outfit. It was a very pretty floral skirt with a summer top to go with it. "I hope everyone else likes it," she told Chronos but in her mind she added, "Especially Koyo
"They'll be fools not too," Chronos assured her. Maggie smiled and went into the bathroom to change into her new outfit for dinner.
In the main dining hall, everyone was gathering for dinner. Ami had just gotten back the test results on Dark Hope. "She's identical to our Hope," Ami told the Senshi.
"In everyway?" Michiru asked in astonishment.
"Yes," Ami replied. "She had the same dental work done and remember that time when she fell and cut her shoulder very badly"
"Of course," Haruka stated. "She had to have five stitches put in and she still has a scar"
"Dark Hope has the exact same scar," Ami told them.
"So she's a perfect replica," Minako exclaimed.
"Except she's evil," Rei added.
"There is something else," Ami reported. Everyone looked at her expectantly. "It seems she also has our Hope's memories as well"
"How?" Serenity asked. "She was just created"
"That I'm trying to figure out," Ami sighed. "But if all the Dark Chibi Senshi have the same memories as our Chibi Senshi then that will make defeating them more complicated"
"I don't understand," Serenity murmured.
"They know our girls' fears and weaknesses," Hotaru explained. "They could use that to their advantage"
"Maggie!" they heard Daisy shriek and they all looked toward the door. Maggie had just walked in wearing a new outfit and a new hairstyle.
"What did you do to your hair?" Makoto demanded.
"I used my allowance and got it cut," Maggie replied. "I'm allowed aren't I"
"You should have checked with me or your mother or Makoto," Gary told her.
"I'm almost twelve," Maggie protested. "I'm not a little kid anymore. I wanted to look older"
"Well you do," Michiru replied. "This is a bit impulsive for you"
"Lay off her," Minako exclaimed. "You look great Maggie"
"Thank you," Maggie smiled at Minako, glad to have an ally.
"You do," Gary agreed. "I just hate the fact that you are growing up. I wonder how your mother will like it"
"I love it," a voice from behind them said. Everyone turned and saw Setsuna.
"Mom," Maggie squealed as she flung her arms around her mother. "So you're not mad"
"No," Setsuna assured her. She pulled Maggie close to her and whispered in her ear, "But you and I need to have a talk later." Maggie nodded her head.
Makoto turned to Daisy. "I guess you and I need to have that talk too"
"What talk?" Daisy asked.
"Later," Makoto told her. "After Tama goes to bed"
"Nuts," Tama muttered as she sat down to eat.
Later on Maggie was getting ready for bed when Setsuna came into her room. "How long have you had a crush on Koyo?" she asked.
"How did you know?" Maggie gasped in astonishment.
"I saw the way you were looking at him at dinner," Setsuna told her. "It was pretty obvious to me"
"I hope no one else knows," Maggie moaned.
"I think just the adults know and they won't tell," Setsuna assured her. "So how long"
"Since he and the others were adopted," Maggie replied. "He's so cute"
"He is a nice looking young man," Setsuna agreed. "But before you start going after boys, you and I need to have a talk. There are some things you need to know. But what I tell you is not to be discussed with the younger children. Is that clear"
"Yes," Maggie promised and she sat back to listen to her mother.
The next day Dark Chibi Uranus kept a lookout for the Chibi Senshi she needed to capture. She had already eliminated some of them for different reasons. She knew she couldn't capture Annika because Rei would know immediately that Dark Annika was an imposter. She eliminated Ariel because they needed Dark Ariel to stay with them to help them with strategies. Dark Chibi Uranus didn't think it was a god idea to take the princess either since Dark Cosmic Moon's powers were valuable to their mission. Also she wasn't sure how the silver crystal would react to the imposter. Of course neither of the twins could be taken since one counterpart was in the palace prison and the other was in charge of this mission. Dark Chibi Uranus almost had her chance to snatch Maggie Meioh this morning but then saw that she had her hair cut. Dark Chibi Uranus wasn't about to suggest to Dark Maggie that she do the same thing. Because of what happened to Dark Chibi Neptune, she wasn't in favor with any of them.
A movement caught her eye. Dark Chibi Uranus looked down and saw Gloria Aino leaving a store. "Perfect," she hissed and she jumped down in front of Gloria. "We meet again"
"I'm prepared to fight," Gloria exclaimed and she took out her henshin wand. But before she could transform Dark Chibi Uranus flicked her finger and a strong wind started. Gloria gasped as she got lifted off the ground and hurled into a brick wall. She moaned as the pain went right through her. Dark Chibi Uranus was next to her quickly and kicked her henshin wand away. "You won't be needing this today," she told her. She grabbed Gloria by the hair. "I promise you won't be missed at all." She took out her communicator and turned it on. "I got one"
"Excellent," Lady Ashi's voice replied. "We'll get you over here"
"Where are we going?" Gloria asked in alarm.
"You'll see in a minute," Dark Chibi Uranus assured her and within seconds she and Gloria vanished leaving her henshin wand on the ground.
