Modern Sailor Scouts

Chapter 3:

Special at Heart

A/N: Okay, I have neglected this story but for a reason: Writer's Block DX I hate them. Thing was that I suddenly got this idea while I was at school, good thing I had an empty notebook in my bag. Anyway, I hope you enjoy the rest of my story. I have a plan…kind of.

Disclaimer: I do not own Sailor Moon but I do own pretty much everything in this story XD ENJOY!

Cassie woke up with the sun shining in from her window. She opened her eyes gently, thinking all that happened was a dream. She nodded to herself as she sat up, "All just a dream" she yawned and felt fur under her hand. She glanced down, seeing a black cat starch.

"Good morning, Sailor Moon" the cat said.

Cassie blinked, "Aries…so it wasn't a dream after all"

Aries sat up, "Of course it wasn't, if it were, do you really believe that you dreamed it"

Cassie glared, "Alright, I got it" she got out of bed and checked the time. It was an hour to noon. Cassie smiled, remembering that she signed up to help with the festival at her school. The 'Spring Blossoms Festival'.

Aries saw her smile, "What's up?"

Cassie shrugged, "Nothing really, just that this festival is happening tonight and I'm helpin" she went into the bathroom to take a shower.

She came out 15 minutes later and went to her closet, pulling on a deep red shirt with really short sleeves, just stopping at her shoulders. A deep blue pair of jeans with a silver crescent moon on her right hip and a silver star on her left. She pulled on a pair of socks and then black slip-on shoes. She went to the bathroom again, combing out her wet hair and putting it into a light braid. She then came out and to her closet again, pulling out a black hoodie jacket that had short sleeves and silver designs on it.

She turned to Aries as she grabbed a large shoulder bag, "Come on, Aries, we have to go. It's a ten minute walk to school"

Aries blinked in surprise, "You want me to come with?"

Cassie shrugged, "Well, we do need to find the person with the pure silver heart. The festival would be a great place to start"

Aries nodded as she thought about it, "Hmm, I see your point" she jumped into the bag, almost completely concealed.

Cassie walked down the stairs after closing her door behind her. She went into the kitchen to find her mother doing the dishes, "Hey mom"

The woman turned to her, "Hey sweetie" she got back to the dishes, "You slept for quite some time"

Cassie smiled, "Yeah, lots of homework" she grabbed an apple from a bowl of fruit on the counter.

Her mother stopped and smiled, "I love how devoted you are to school, unlike your brother"

"I heard that!" a boy called from the living room. The sounds of a cartoon were also heard.

Cassie and her mother started laughing and her mother started doing the dishes again.

"I have to go somewhere" Cassie told her before taking a bite into her apple.

"Where?"

"To school" Cassie said after swallowing.

Her mother stopped, "On the weekend?"

Cassie nodded, "You know that festival I've been telling you about". Her mother nodded. "Well, it's happening tonight and I agreed to help out, so I have to go to school cause that's where it's held"

Her mother nodded again, "I see. Doing anything special?"

Cassie shook her head, "Nah, during tonight, I'll greet people coming in, hand out balloons and masks for the kids and help out setting up the play"

"I see. Well, enjoy yourself"

Cassie smiled, "I will"

"Can we go?" her little brother asked, coming out of the living room. He was 12 while she was 16, he had brown hair also but it was a lighter brown and he has blue eyes unlike her hazel ones.

Their mother thought about it, "I guess it couldn't hurt"

Cassie smiled, "Okay, its starts at six and people say it will last till after midnight but I doubt it, see you then"

The two nodded and Cassie took another bite of her apple as she left the house.

"I thought you'd never leave that house" Aries complained.

Cassie shrugged, "Whatever, let's get to more important matters"

Aries nodded and climbed out of the bag, "I do believe I promised you something"

Cassie stopped, "You did?" she thought for a moment. She nodded, "Yeah, something about a tracker"

Aries nodded, "Yes, let me get it for you" she then jumped into the air, flipped and caused a flip phone type of thing to appear. Cassie caught it before it hit the ground.

"What is it?" Cassie asked as she flipped it open.

"It's a scanner, it can also tell you who's going to be in trouble and as a normal cell phone, very handy"

Cassie nodded and put it in her pocket, having it nearby. "Okay, let's get going" Aries seemed to smile and jumped back into the bag.

Cassie sat into one of the chairs set up for the play, "Well, it doesn't seem any of these people are targeted"

Aries sat on her lap, nodding, "You might be right"

A girl with short shimmering black hair walked past them. Cassie's cell phone started ringing. She drew it out of her pocket, to find that it wasn't a call. She glanced up at the girl and whispered, "Hey, Aries. She's setting the signal off. You think she's it?"

"On your first day, I highly doubt it. But it couldn't hurt to stay close" Aries said, jumping into the bag.

Cassie had all of her work done with she got there so she was free till 5:30. It was 4:30 now and they had spent two hours walking around the school, waiting for the phone to go off. Now that she had something, she wasn't going to lose it. She followed the other girl, wondering how she was going to protect her while hiding from her.

Aries glanced out of the bag and saw seven guys walk by wearing odd clothing and big plastic noses, "What are they?"

Cassie glanced at them and then continued following the girl, "They're for the play. We're doing Snow White, they're the Seven Dwarfs"

Aries nodded, "Ah, what an odd world you live on"

Cassie glared down at her but shook it off. She stopped when the girl did and finally noticed the girl's outfit, "Hey, she's playing Snow White"

Aries glanced over, "Oh, what is Snow White's role in the play?"

Cassie looked down at her and then up again, "Well, she's the kind hearted towns' girl. The wicked witch who is also the queen asked a mirror who is the fairest woman in the land and it says Snow White. The queen sent Snow White into the Forbidden Forest. The queen thought that she had killed her but really, Snow White was very strong and kind so she befriended all the animals in the forest. Snow White found a cottage, she was very tired and didn't want to sleep outside went into it and fell asleep on the small beds inside. The seven dwarfs come and find her, liking her instantly and letting her stay with them"

"This is very a charming tale" Aries said softly, like she was touched by the story.

Cassie smiled and continued, "The queen then asked her mirror again and it still says Snow White. The queen, enraged, turns herself into a hag and takes a magic apple to Snow White. Snow White, who hadn't eaten for a bit, took a bite and falls. The queen left, thinking she killed her, which she did. The seven dwarfs find her and put in a glass case. They cried for her and the animals wept. Suddenly, a prince riding on her white horse comes up and feels Snow White nearby. He comes up, enchanted by her beauty, he kisses her and she opens her eyes. She was saved from death but love's kiss and the queen was never seen again. That's the end"

Aries nodded, "I understand. I know why her"

Cassie looked at her this time, "What?"

"Well, this girl plays Snow White. It'll help to play a kind character if you're kind yourself, right?"

Cassie nodded, "Yeah, I see what you mean. So you really think it's her?"

"I'm not positive but she might"

"Right" Cassie smiled. Her watch started beeping and she glanced at it, "Whoa! It's five. Time to go" Cassie ran off towards the gate.

It was well after 6 when Cassie saw her mother and brother come onto the school grounds. "Hey" she called, walking over.

"Wow, sweetie, this is amazing. I've seen your school and you've completely changed it" her mother told her.

Cassie smiled, "Thanks, but it wasn't just me, everyone else helped out too"

Her mother nodded, smiling.

"So, when does the play start, sis? You said you were helping" her brother asked.

"Hmm, I believe the girl in charge said eleven. Huh, guess this will go past midnight" Cassie smiled, "The play is two hours long"

Her brother smiled too, "Cool"

"Well, I'll see you around" and she left for her next line of work.

Cassie enjoyed herself as she helped around the festival. She watched over a few stalls when the person manning it had to leave for a bit. She helped give out masks and balloons, as well as small fruit candies. There was plenty to do and it made the time fly till the play. It was 10:30 when the girl in charge came up to her.

"Cassie, I would like you to help Leane get ready for the play" she said.

"Leane? Who is she playing?" Cassie asked while giving her balloons to a guy helping.

"She plays Snow White and she says that she'll need help with her dress"

"Right, I'm on it" Cassie told her and grabbed her bag.

Cassie walked back stage, looking for Leane, "Where is she?"

"Get out, you creep!" came a shout from an open door down the hall. Cassie ran down to it and when she got there, a guy with shimmering black hair and cold blue eyes stepped out, walking away.

'He looks familiar' Cassie thought.

"You're going to wish you didn't reject me" he said under his breath which Cassie was the only one to hear and then he left.

Cassie walked into the room to find a girl with black hair sitting on the floor. She had tears in her eyes and her dress clenched in her hands, "Are you alright?"

The girl looked up and stood up, "Get away" she spoke softly, scared.

Cassie lifted her hands, "It's alright, I'm here to help. Something about a dress?"

The girl relaxed a bit, "Oh, you must be Cassie, May said you were coming"

Cassie nodded, "And you're Leane. By the way, who was that creep?"

Leane laughed nervously, "I don't know. He said he was here to help but I remembered asking for a girl. I didn't let him and he went a little…creepy"

"Oh, I see" Cassie glanced at her watch, "Well, it's ten minutes till the play begins, let's get that dress on" she closed the so no more 'creeps' came in.

After the first two acts, Leane had to change into a different dress so she came back to Cassie. After that was done she went back out. Cassie left the back stage to watch the rest of the play. It was in the middle when something went wrong.

A guy with shimmering black hair appeared and Cassie remembered him, "Harasu" she breathed. She glanced down at Aries, "Should I?"

Aries shook her head, "No, get back stage, we can't let anyone see you transform"

Cassie nodded, "Right" she began moving though the crowd towards backstage. She went into Leane's dressing room. Once she had closed the door, she heard a scream. She glanced down at Aries, "Now?

Aries nodded, "Go"

Cassie smiled, "Finally" she took out her broach from her pocket and lifted it to the air, "Moon Prism Power!"

After the transformation, Sailor Moon glanced around outside the door, glad that no one saw. She then ran out onto the stage through a backdoor. She saw that people were running away in panic and Leane lying on the ground, pale and lifeless. She looked around and found Harasu standing not far from her. He smirked and stared at the heart crystal in his hand. A few seconds later, he frowned, "Not again!" he roared and threw the crystal away. It was about to shatter upon the ground but Sailor Moon caught it. "You!" he shouted and sent a flaming black raven at her. She jumped out of the way and landed near Leane. She placed the crystal in Leane's chest, which absorbed it. The color returned to her face.

Sailor Moon sighed. "Sailor Moon! Look out!" Aries called when coming up onto the stage. Sailor turned to find a raven shaped black flame coming towards her. She pushed Leane as far away as she could. She stood up to jump out of the way but someone grabbed her arms and she and the person moved away.

She turned to find a black suit and a white cape bellowing out behind. She looked up to find a smiling face looking at her, odd thing though, he was wearing a mask that covered his eyes. The name returned to her mind, "Midnight Guardian" she whispered.

"Glad you remember me" he said.

Harasu glared at the two and then vanished. Sailor Moon stood there in his arms, watching Harasu disappear. She turned to face the Midnight Guardian, looking to the eyes of his mask. He stared into hers.

"Who are you?" she asked.

He smiled, "Someday, you may know"

"But-" and he vanished, jumping away with his cape flowing behind him.

Aries stood by while she stared after him, "Who is him?" Sailor Moon whispered to herself.

Cassie watched the end of the play, the handsome prince kissing Snow White and breaking death's spell. As she watched, she couldn't stop thinking about how close she and he had been. She felt a connection to him, but didn't know what. One thing she did know, she would find out how he was, for sure.

A/N: Yes, I finished it! It took me three days to write this then two days to type it up. Although, it's a lot quicker than most stories. It usually takes me a week or two to finish those. Anyway, please tell me what you think! If you have any ideas that you want in here, tell me in a review and we can discuss the idea. If I like it, which I mostly likely will, I will dedicate the chapter to you cause it would be your idea. Thanks for reading and I really hope you continue. ^^
