Author's Notes: So this time things start to happen and the tone gets a little darker.

And like before reviews are appreciated!


CHAPTER 3: Confrontation

Houshite is walking around Tokyo, looking around the new, strange place. Her searching look memorizes everything around her: street layouts, buildings, valleys, every light source etc. Then she finds herself in the city park, which is quite empty, having only a big water-fountain in the middle of it. Houshite sees a lonely man sitting on the edge of that fountain, he seems sad and is crying.

"Wonder what is troubling him? Should I ask about it?" she is thinking, as she walks towards him. But midway, a sudden burst of anger inside her takes over her entire body and senses. The man is too worried about his own problems: "I hope she is okay. The hospital will help her. She must be okay?" and doesn't notice Houshite standing right in front of him. Until her hand suddenly wraps around the man's throat and lifts him in the air, so his feet can no longer reach the ground. Houshite is staring straight into the man's eyes, and she sees all the fear in them. The man sees the overflowing anger in Houshite eyes, as her grip tightens. And soon all the fear starts to fade away with his life. Soon the lifeless body of the man falls to the ground. As well Houshite starts to relax, until...

"Step away from him!" Houshite turns around, "I am the Sailor Soldier of love, Sailor Venus. And I will punish you in the name of love!"

Houshite sees a young girl, with long, blonde hair and a sailor uniform. As well as a white cat standing next to her. Houshite takes a deep breath, she won't be surprised again.

Mina was peacefully walking home, "Let's go through the park, Artemis." When she arrives at the park she sees a woman with beautiful, long black hair. She's wearing black long vest over some black tight clothes. But she is also choking a man. Mina jumps to bush and quickly calls the other Sailor Soldiers, and transforms into Sailor Venus. To her horror the man seems to be already dead when she announces herself.

Quite fast afterwards the other Sailor Soldiers appear beside her. Sailor Mars startles: "She has an enormous power!" and she starts the attack "Mars Celestial Fire Surround!"

A direct hit... or is it.

"Huh! It just went straight through her!"

The mysterious woman smiles faintly: "You are too slow." Her smooth, velvety voice echoes throughout the park. Everyone's mouth drops open and fright fills their faces.

"She dodged that? How..." Mars is shocked.

A tiny smirk appears on Houshite's face, "Too easy."

"Uranus World Shaking!"

"Neptune Deep Submerge!"

"Pluto Deadly Scream!"

BAM! The whole park shakes from the attack.

"Did we get her?" Neptune asks.

"No, you missed again," a voice says on the other side of the fountain, still with the smirk on her face.

"Mercury Bubbles!"

The entire park is filled by a deep mist.

"Jupiter Sparkling Wide Pressure!"

"Venus Love Chain Encircle! ...I got her!" Venus shouts. Immediately the mist clears. Houshite is still standing in the same place, this time with a burn mark on the ground below her. Sailor Venus on the other hand has her Love Chain Whip tangled around the water-fountain. Everyone, even Houshite, are looking a little embarrassed.

"There's no way we can beat her!" Uranus is already panicking.

"Yes there is!" Sailor Moon ensures and lifts up the Purity Chalice. Houshite's smirk turns into a more devious smile. Right after the transformation, two flashes of light blink through the park...
