Here is chapter 5 everyone. I hope you all enjoy. This one may not be all that long.
Chapter 5:Failure to Teleport
"Sailor Moon!" Artemis called out. It took him some time but he finally found her! Unfortunately he also found the man that caused Luna's horrid transformation in the first place. He responded to jadeite with a loud, angry meow that almost sounded like the roar of larger cats.
"Artemis," She said. "Is everyone alright?" The meatball headed girl then saw Artemis' face go from panic to despair. At that point, she feared for the worst possible news. Perhaps Jadeite was half right all along.
"Well, yes and no." The white cat answered. "The other scouts are fine but Luna is only a shadow of her former self. She's a monster and this guy is the one who made her that way!"
Luna is… a monster. Serena thought to herself. Now her priorities went from finding Luna to finding a way to change her back to normal. But if she uses her spiral heart moon scepter on her, it would not only kill the monster Luna, but possibly the normal Luna, too. Then she wouldn't have her guardian around to guide her would be no one to help her in need, no one to encourage her to study instead of going to the game station and most of all, no one for her to encourage her to go on as a sailor scout. Sure she and Luna had their moments of arguing and annoying one another to no end but they were still very close. For if not for Luna, Serena would never be a sailor scout. She would never be anything more than just a clumsy meatball head. To a degree, life without her feline friend would be pretty she was ever going to have a chance of saving her feline guardian, they had to get to her of course but they were much too far away from her and the other inner scouts.
"Artemis, do you think that you can teleport us to Luna and the others?" Sailor moon requested.
"I don't know if it will work that well without Luna but I'll try." Artemis said nervously. Sailor Teleport was a lot more reliable when both the cats were together with just one, it was likely that either it wouldn't work at all or if they did warp it wouldn't get them to their endangered friends. "SAILOR TELEPORT!"
Miraculously, Atemis' sailor teleport worked. They were transported away from Jadeite- that much was at least done. Where they ended up next was something that would have to be lead up to it was on their side as well as their loved ones. For they would need not only fate on their side but also a miracle to get them out of the situation they were in.
Unfortunately fate was not on their side as they ended up miles upon miles away from their desired destination. It was to be expected though; Artemis' sailor teleport was not as accurate unless Luna was with him. They teleported once again but still to no avail; sure they were closer to their friends than before but they were still far from the scene they were supposed to be at. The double Sailor Teleport was more than enough to Tire the white cat out. The poor guy felt like a failure not being able to help sailor moon.
"Sorry, Sailor moon, I gave it my best." He groaned. "I'll try just one more time."
"No. You need your rest, Artemis. I'll just have to get us there myself." Sailor Moon suggested.
"But How?" Artemis asked a little confused. "We're miles away from the others! We'll never make it there in time."
"I'll find a way…Somehow." Sailor Moon Replied. All Artemis could do was hope that she was right and that she really could find a way. They only had so much time to mess around before something horrible happened to Luna or any of the other scouts. Sailor Moon scooped up the white cat and wondered around hoping to find some way to get to the others without having to run. Of course to Artemis, running would have been a good Idea if not for the girl's poor stamina. Luckily just a few feet away from them stood a bicycle complete with training wheels and a basket. The size of the bicycle was perfect for sailor moon and the basket was just big enough to hold a small cat. She placed Artemis inside the basket and straddled herself onto the bike struggling to keep her balance as she hadn't ridden a bike in a while. Once she got her bearings, Serena began peddling as hard as she could down the streets. There was only one major problem with Sailor Moon riding the bike. She hadn't ridden a bike since she was ten years old. Normally when one rides a bike they don't ever forget, not the case with the meatball headed heroine. She struggled to keep her balance on the bike and it didn't help that they were bumpy sidewalks ahead. It was going to get nasty for sailor moon now.
She peddled as much as she could, nearly losing her balance more times than could be counted. The sidewalk was so bumpy and shaky that both Sailor Moon and Artemis were beginning to feel a bit nauseous. As sick as they were getting they had to press on at least until Artemis had the strength to do another sailor teleport. Something that looked like it was going to be a long shot.
This is bad. Artemis thought to himself as they pushed forward, still nowhere close to their friends. With things going as downhill as they are, I don't think we'll be able to save ourselves, let alone Luna and the other scouts. It won't be easy but I have to try one more sailor teleport.
With those thoughts, Artemis did just that without warning Sailor moon. Only time and fate would tell if they would finally make it to the right place.
Meanwhile, during the fight with Luna, the other scouts were at a loss of what to do. None of them had the heart to fight back in fear that they would harm their feline friend. Running away from her was also starting to become a tiring option both figuratively and literally. Perhaps if they couldn't fight back, maybe the other sailor scouts can slow her down. Suddenly, Sailor Mercury had a plan to slow Luna down to buy them all some time until Sailor Moon showed up.
Luna looked on in suspicion as the ice sailor scout whispered to the others. She didn't quite hear what they were saying but knew that they had something planned and it wouldn't be good for the monster part of her. She then got back into her fighting stance ready for whatever the other scouts had in store for her.
"MECURY BUBBLE FREEZE!" Sailor Mercury shouted as hundreds of ice bubbles gathered around the monstrous cat. At first glance, the bubbles were so small that an attempt to freeze her seemed relatively futile. But, because there were so many of them surrounding her, they did freeze her, if only to buy the others a little time for them to make their next move. That was, if Luna could stay put long enough to give them a chance to make their next move.
Sailor Venus used her Venus Love Chain to ensure that Luna doesn't try to attack them again even if she does thaw out.
"That should buy us some more time, even if it's only a little." Sailor Venus said.
Sailor Mars was beginning to lose her patience. Just waiting around didn't seem like it was going to get anywhere, in her mind they were only delaying the inevitable. On top of that, there was still no sign of their supposed leader, Sailor Moon.
"Sailor Moon, You're running late as usual, meatball head!" Mars started to vent. "And just when we need you, too!"
As the inner scouts were planning their next move, Jadeite was planning his as well. He had a hunch that Sailor Moon would be on her way to the others and he needed something to keep her attention away from her priorities. But without the same abilities he had when Queen Beryl was around it would be much easier said than done.
"How am I going to bring down those sailor brats?" He pondered. He knew for a fact that since the last time he faced Serena, she had gotten much stronger than before and there were more sailor scouts than before as well. His former leader wasn't even a match for the moon princess so in the back of his mind he knew that unless he had some sort of power equal to or even stronger than the silver crystal, he didn't stand a chance.
