DAYBREAK

Episode 32

"Michiru! Come help me! Something's after me and I can't transform because there's some guy here!" Haruka was screaming into her communicator as she tried to escape the daimon.

"I'll be right there!" Michiru yelled back.

"And bring someone with you! This one's strong!" Haruka cautioned. With that, she turned off her communicator and slipped it back in her pocket.

"I've got you now!" Haruka jerked her head around to find the daimon standing in front of her.

"Why the hell are you after me?!" Haruka yelled at the daimon.

"Aaaahhhh, jealousy can answer that. But, enough with the chit-chat, I'm craving some violence!" The daimon jumped at Haruka, who rolled out of the way. She stood up and ran out to the football field, the daimon close behind.

"Where the hell's Michiru?!" Haruka was sprinting down the field when she heard the daimon yell some words and felt something sharp wrapping around her legs, causing her to fall over. "No…" Haruka saw the daimon slowly creeping up on her, treating her like caught prey.

"Stop right there!"

"Huh?!" The daimon searched the bleachers and field, looking for the origin of the voice.

"I cannot allow you to endanger those who train hard to run! Especially one of my friends!" Sailor Moon jumped down from one of the bleachers, the other Senshi following suit. "I am the defender of love and justice, and in the name of the Moon, I will punish you!"

"Oh, stop, please! Your words are killing me!" The daimon mockingly began to grab its arms are if they were getting hit. Sailor Moon looked like she was going to wail, and the other Senshi all sighed. Sailor Mars jumped in front of all the others, an impatient look on her face.

"Mars…Fire……Ignite!" The attack flew at the daimon, which simply moved out of the way, causing the attack to hit Haruka head-on. "No!"

"Ha! The more you try to attack, the more hurt your friend gets!" the daimon explained.

"Keep attacking! Forget about me!" Haruka cried, recovering from Sailor Mars's attack.

"We won't hurt you!" Sailor Moon answered. The other Senshi nodded their heads in agreement.

"If we don't want to hurt her but still want to destroy that daimon, we have to make up some sort of plan," Sailor Mercury whispered.

"What do you propose, Mercury?" Sailor Venus noticed Sailor Mercury typing on her computer.

"It may take me some time to make up a plan…"

"That won't be necessary, Sailor Mercury!" Sailor Sun stepped out of the shade, arms crossed in front of her. "Called upon by the Sun and distant stars, I am the lost Sailor Sun!" Klein heard the speech and gulped.

"Please, not her…"

"I've introduced myself, now who are you?" Sailor Sun asked, a plan forming in her head.

"My name is Obsession."

"Really? Then you must be obsessed with hurting the innocent, because it seems you're doing it at this very moment."

"You got that right, Sailor Brat."

"Well, sorry to ruin your fun, but I'm going to have to stop you."

"I'd like to see you try."

"Not just yet…" Sailor Sun whispered under her breath. She touched one of her earrings and a visor appeared over her eyes.

"Another visor?!" Sailor Jupiter glanced back at Sailor Mercury, who also had her visor on. She seemed to be reading something going across the screen.

"Guys, Sailor Sun wants us to attack the daimon," Sailor Mercury finally said.

"What?! That will hurt Haruka!" Sailor Mars reminded.

"She knows, but if we provide a distraction, Sailor Sun's plan might work."

"I trust her. Let's do it," Sailor Moon instructed.

"Alright…Jupiter…Thunder…..Crash!" The lightning attack dodged Obsession, as planned, and hit Haruka, who flew back across the field.

"How stupid can you be?!" Obsession questioned.

"Not as much as you!" Sailor Sun yelled.

"What…?!" Obsession turned towards Sailor Sun, but it was too late.

"Solar…Light……Beam!" Sailor Sun threw a beam of light at Obsession, and it sliced through the daimon's arm. Obsession fell to the ground, clutching its hurt arm. "Now, everyone!"

"Shine…Aqua……Illusion!"

"Venus…Crescent…Beam……Smash!"

"Mars…Fire……Ignite!"

"Jupiter…Thunder……Crash!"

"Moon…Tiara……Magic!"

All the combined attacks hit Obsession head on, but it still wasn't enough to kill it. In desperation, the daimon decided it would take Haruka hostage and turned back to her. But, all Obsession saw was Sailor Sun picking Haruka up.

"Buh-bye!" Sailor Sun hopped away, leaving Obsession in shock.

"Come back here!" Obsession staggered to its feet and started throwing little pieces of sample paper at Sailor Sun. But, Sailor Sun easily dodged them.

"Is that the best you've got?!" she challenged.

"Try this on for size, Apollo!" Sailor Sun turned around, but it was too late. Klein launched a sphere of dark energy at her. Haruka saw it and tried to warn Sailor Sun, but the strong Senshi simply smiled…
