Chapter 3: Kidnapping and Betrayal
When Sailor Moon woke up she was on a dark hard crystal floor. She looked up to see Wicked Lady in front of her. "Why? Why are you doing this?"
"Because I take orders from Diamond; speaking of which…" The pink haired woman looked over from her blonde haired prey to a man advancing to the two girls.
"Wicked Lady, thank you."
"You're welcome Prince Diamond. Now are you going to retrieve the Silver Crystal from her?"
"What?" Sailor Moon said from the floor turning around to see Diamond standing behind them.
"I would but I've noticed the crystal is most powerful in the hands of a Moon Princess. I'll take it from here. Thank you again Wicked Lady. I believe Wise Man wants a word with you…""
"Of course he does. I won't be long." With that she disappeared out of sight.
"Sailor Moon, please." He offered his hand to help her up from the floor.
She took it only because something about that dark orb had made her weak.
"What can a man like me do to win over the heart of a fair princess like you?" He said now grasping her hand and pulling her up closer him, inches from his face.
"There is nothing you could ever do to get me to love you." She said, pulling her hand from his grasp.
"Somehow I doubt that." He said suavely and used his powers to control her, putting her into a deep sleep. "Sleep my princess, because this time you don't have your scouts or your little Tuxedo Mask to save you and play hero."
…
"Yes Wise Man."
"Why did you collect Sailor Moon for Diamond without approving these actions with me first?"
"I didn't know that everything I did had to be reported to you." She danced around the room, with an arrogance that made Wise Man angry.
"Well you should. I was the one who helped you realize the truth from the lies in your life; and this is the thanks I get?"
"You may have done that, but I have more power than you do. That's why you need me to destroy the earth; you can't do it on your own. Plus, let's just say Diamond gave me an offer I couldn't resist."
"What? What could Diamond give you that I couldn't have possibly? I gave you your power!"
"The dark crystal is the basis for my power. You just used them to give me power; they're the basis to yours as well. The difference is if I use them I could to do much more than you ever could…like control this world instead of destroying it. Diamond isn't too happy about Sapphire. He can give me the same power and people who can follow me. I won't be just a pawn. You can't even deny you couldn't destroy the world without my power." Her face grew with a sly smile. "Even you know how much power I have; I don't need you."
Those words struck Wise Man, as he's aura grew strongly. Even he knew that she was the part of this plan that he couldn't do without…but this? This defiance?
"Diamond? Hah, I'll kill him too if I have to." He said, trying to strike some fear in her.
"No you won't." She rose with her own growing dark pink and black aura.
"Why do you say that?" As his aura grew too, his skeleton flashing from behind his hood.
"You won't get a chance to." She giggled.
