Chapter Six: Birth of The Sailor Soldiers

The Moon Kingdom...

Princess Serena and her friends all stood out in the courtyard waiting for her mother. "Serena, do you know what this is about?" Her blonde haired friend asked. "No Mina, mother didn't really tell me much about this meeting." Serena answered.

"Hello girls.." A gentle voice said from behind them. All six girls turned around to find Queen Serenity standing behind them with Luna. "Hello Mother, whats going on?" Serena asked. "Well Serena dear, as you all know, Lord Hector isn't going to stop til he has Serena." Queen Serenity began as the girls nodded. "Luna and I have designed some special pens for you." She said softly as held out five transforming pens the color of their respected planets. She handed each of them a transforming pen. "Wow these are beautiful." The blue haired girl said. The Queen smiled at her. "Yes they are, but they hold great power as well." She said as she turned to her daughter. She held out a gold round compact and handed it to her. Serena took the compact from her mother and stared at it. It was gold and had a crescent moon ingraved on it.

"Now...Ami, Lita, Mina, Alaynia and Rae, hold the pens in the air and shout out your planets name then power." The Queen instructed. They nodded as they did as they were told. "Mercury Power!" "Mars Power!" "Venus Power!" "Jupiter Power!" "Earth Power!" The five girls shouted. A rainbow of colors swirled around the five girls as they transformed into warriors. When they were finished they looked down at their clothes. "Wow!" Venus giggled. She were a orange and white sailor suit with a dark blue bow over her chest and a yellow bow on her lower back. In the middle of her forehead laid a golden tiara with an orange gem in the center. Mars's uniform was exactly the same only red and with a purple bow infront of her chest and a red bow on her lower back. Jupiter's sailor suit was a dark green with two pink bows. Mercurys sailor suirt was blue with baby blue bows. Earth's sailor suit was black with red bows in front and back.

"Very good, now Serena.." She said as she turned to her daughter. "Place your hand in the air and shout out Moon Prism Power." Serena nodded as she placed the compact in the center of her dress and rose her hand into the air. "Moon Prism Power!" She shouted. The girls watched with wide eyes as the princess floated in the air as pink and red ribbons surrounded her body forming a red white and blue sailor suit. "Total cool!" Serena said as she admired her clothes. The five young girls laughed at their friend.

"Okay girls." Luna said as she perched upon a stone pillar, facing the girls. "I want you all to concentrate and aim at your target." Luna instructed sternly. The girls stopped giggling and stare at the small black cat. "What's our target?" Mercury asked. "I want you to aim for that tree a few feet in front of you." She said as she pointed to the tree. "Mercury your up first. Aim for the target and when your ready shout out Mercury bubbles blast." Luna said. Mercury nodded and stared down at her target. "Mercury Bubbles..Blast!" She cried. A surge of power ran through her body as a small blue ball formed into her hands she spun around and crossed her arms infront of her face and released the energy. The blue ball of energy flew towards the tree and as it hit burst in to a mist. "Well done Mercury." Luna said. Mercury blushed and looked over at Luna. "Thank you." She said softly.

Jupiter was next to attack. "Jupiter shout out Jupiter thunder crash." Luna hollard. Jupiter nodded and powered up. "Jupiter Thunder...Crash!" She cried as her tiara gem extended in the air and a lighting bolt shot from the sky down to her tiara. Lighting bolts surround her her body as she crossed her arms in front of her chest and then released. Many swirling lighting bolts hurrled towards the tree. As the bolts of lighting hit the tree it left a black mark on the bark. "Very good, Mars your up." Luna said. Mars took Jupiters spot and waited for her power to be given to her. "Mars you will shout out Mars fire ignite." Luna said. Mars held her hand together with her to index fingers pressed against eachother as she aimed them at the tree. "Mars Fire...Ignite!" She cried as she closed her eyes. A swirling ball of fire appeared infront of her index fingers and then was released at the tree. The fire ball hit the tree, leaving a small burn mark next to Jupiters.

Venus then stepped in Mars's spot and prepared to attack. "Venus you will shout out Venus Crescent Beam Smash." Luna ordered. Venus nodded and pointed her index finger in the air. "Venus Crescent Beam...Smash!" She cried as she aimed her index finger at the tree. A bright orange and yellow beam shot out from her index finger and hit the tree head on. "Yes!" She squealed as she hit the target. Earth stepped into the spot where the others had stood. "Sailor Earth shout out Earth Rose Petals Strike." Luna instructed. Sailor Earth nodded and turned to the tree. "Earth Rose Petals...Strike!" She shouted as she wrapped her arms around her upper body and spun in a circle as rose petals formed around her. She stopped spinning and extended her arms from her body sending the rose petals at the tree.

"Well done, ladies." Queen Serenity said. "Now Serena, I want you to aim your tiara at the tree and shout out Moon Tiara Magic." Luna said. "Um..okay." Serena responded as she turned towards the tree. She took of her tiara and as it turned into a disc. "Moon Tiara...Magic!" She cried as she tried to aim it at the tree. The disc swirled around the tree and back at them. "Ahh!" They cried as they ducked. The disc smacked into a wall behind them and fell to the ground.

"Serena!" The girls groaned as they stood up. "Sorry guys!" Serena said nervously. "Good work girls, we will practice more tomorrow." The Queen said gently as she walked over to them. They all nodded in agreement as Serena walked over to the wall and picked up her tiara. "Don't worry, honey, you'll get it." The Queen said as she placed a hand on her daughters shoulder. She looked up at her mother. "Thanks." She said.

Later that night the Queen walked into her bedroom. "How did trainging go?" The King asked as she walked over to her side of the bed. "It went pretty good, the girls did very well except for Serena.." She said as she looked over at her husband. He leaned up and wrapped his arms around her waist, pulling her closer to him. "Don't worry, Serenity, she will get the hang of it soon." The King said softly. "I hope so." The Queen whispered as she laid back into her husbands arms...
