"Two targets, right now?" Heidi asked over the phone, she was sitting on her bed, looking at a few text books for an upcoming exam.
"That's what Aries told me" Cassie told her on the other end, "We have to meet up, now" Cassie was walking about her room, talking on the detector phone.
"Alright, where is it closest to?"
"Ah, that's the problem…they're separate attacks" Cassie explained.
"What? Do you…do you think that golden haired guy is helping again?"
"Surprisingly, I don't. Those two don't seem to get along, so I don't Harasu would want to work with him again, whoever he was" Cassie commented, "But we do have to remember, Harasu has made more than one minion before"
Heidi shivered, remembering the Tenten girls, "Very true, okay…does the fountain in central park seem like a good enough place to meet up"
Cassie nodded and realized that Heidi couldn't see her, "Yeah, I think that would have to do. We can't waste time picking a place to meet"
"Got it, I'll be there" Heidi said before hanging up. She glanced at her bedroom door, hearing snores. She sighed and pulled on a jacket, she then walked to her window across from her desk. She suddenly realized the benefits of being an only child, she opened the window and climbed out onto the lawn. She ran to the bike rake next to the house, pulling her bike off. She hopped on and pushed off, heading for Central Park.
Harasu hovered over the city as storm clouds began to loom in. He smiled at the oncoming rain, thunder and lighting. He glanced around, wondering where the girls would come in at until he saw a flash of pink and blue near the fountain in Central Park. He smirked as he turned around, heading towards the large building where his target was.
Cassie and Heidi transformed into Sailor Moon and Mercury upon meeting at the fountain, neither talked except to shout out their activation chants.
Sailor Moon glanced at the detector phone, "One to the east and the other is a bit north" she told Mercury.
"You take the closest and meet up with me once you finish" Mercury suggested.
Sailor Moon nodded and the girls parted, Mercury going east and she going north.
Aries ran into the area of the fountain, only catching a glimpse of Mercury but not of Sailor Moon. She sighed and ran after Mercury, knowing either would meet up with the other eventfully.
Sailor Moon ran towards a building having the detector phone with her, signaling that the target was inside. She nodded and ran inside, hoping she wasn't too late.
Sailor Mercury followed the on her scanner visor, turning down many roads until she ended up in another park. She ran through, watching the detector. She ran into a person lying on the ground who seemed to be unconscious but not like a homeless person by the looks of their clothing. Mercury got a sneaking feeling but stood up and walked over. She knelled down, placing her hand on the person's shoulder.
"Hey, are you alright?" Mercury asked, rocking their shoulder a bit.
They opened their eyes slightly, "Who are you?" a woman gasped, whisper-like.
Mercury sighed, "I'm Mercury. I'm here to help. Now, are you hurt? Everything fine?"
The woman smirked ever so slightly, "I'm great now that you here" she sneered, snatching Mercury's wrist and threw her into a light post.
Mercury grunted as she slammed into the bar of the post, "What?" she gasped as she braced herself on her hands as she fell on the ground.
The woman stood up as her skin seemed to peel away. Her pale skin fell to the ground to reveal pitch black skin with white markings all over her. She had a red design tattooed over her chest and four arms peeled from her back, revealing claw like fingers.
Mercury watched as the woman transformed from a helpless human into a dangerous monster, "What? How? What happened to the target?" she asked herself.
The woman heard her who now resembled a spider in human shape, "There wasn't one!" she chuckled.
"But…so, you disguised yourself as one?"
"Think about it, little girl. I thought he said you were the smart one" the lady chuckled even more as she teased the girl.
Mercury closed her eyes as she tried to figure out Harasu's devious plan and suddenly gasped, "Sailor Moon!"
"Right on the dot, little girl, your prize" the lady smirked, "Eternal Sleep!" she shrieked as she rushed at Mercury.
Sailor Moon scanned the whole building and found dark power located on the roof. She nodded to herself and to the elevator only to find that there wasn't one, "What? Are these people crazy? A 20 story building and no elevator" she sighed and rushed for the stairs, dashing up as fast as she could.
Mercury dodged the spider lady's attacks with all 6 arms as best as she could but began to feel like she was losing speed. She never had enough time to attack, having arms come from all directions.
The woman was exploding with laughter, watching Mercury's feeble attempts to dodge and attack.
Mercury jumped into a fountain and felt power rush over her, making her glance at the flowing water around her feet.
The woman rushed to do a final strike to take out Sailor Mercury.
Mercury knew what to do, "I call upon the Power of Mercury!" she shouted as she raised her arms.
The lady smirked as she thought it was a joke when she slapped face first into a wall of water.
Mercury gasped as a wall of water had formed from the fountain. She smiled as she spun, "Shine Aqua Pressure!" she shouted as two more walls of water appeared on either side of the women, slamming into her with the third.
The woman crumbled onto her knees, glancing up at Mercury and suddenly smirked, "You can't finish me off"
Mercury raised her hand, "Wanna bet" she placed her index finger on the woman's forehead, which caused a blue crescent moon to appear. It began to glow blue until it flashed, causing the woman to turn into silver water.
Mercury stepped back in surprise. Aries ran up next to her, "You have unlocked your powers, not your true ones but really close" she smiled, "So, where's the target?"
Mercury glared down at the puddle and smiled sheepishly.
"You mean her? You just turned the target into water?" Aries shouted panicky.
"No, no, that was one of Harasu's shadows. She pretended to be the target, when she really wasn't. It was a trick" Mercury explained quickly.
Aries nodded, "That makes sense, but if she was a trick…" she gasped, "That means Sailor Moon went after the real target, the one Harasu will attack. She's gonna do it alone, you need to get to her right now!"
Mercury realized it too, how the leader would be weakened without her there. She ran out of the park and pulled up her visor, tracking the detector phone.
Sailor Moon rushed off the stairs onto the roof. She flanked around, seeing no one, "That's so odd" she muttered. She took a step forward, making her fall on her hands and knees. Scratching her up, "Oh, come on!" she shouted as she stood up and turned to find Harasu standing there. She finally noticed the sleeping body of a man on top of the stair well.
"So good of you to stop by" Harasu smirked, "For your demise"
Sailor Moon glared, "Yeah, right. The only demise we'll be seeing is yours!" she told him as she tapped her tiara, "Moon Tiara Flash!" she called and a bright blast shot out at him.
He pulled out his raven blade and the blast hit it, being absorbed, "Nice try but I've learned all of your tricks" he spun the black and then pointed the tip at her, "Raven Flash!" he shouted and the same blast shot out at her.
She gasped but jumped out of the way just in time, "Dammit!" she muttered, she stood up again but this time pulled out her scepter, "Moon Cosmic Crash!" she shouted and shot her bright shining crescent moon at him.
But again he blocked it with his blade, absorbing it.
"No…" she gasped.
Harasu smirked as rain began to fall and thunder roared while lighting flashed.
"Raven Crash!" The same attack shot out at her as lighting lit up her face. The blast hit her dead on, right in the chest. An explosion appeared and threw her off the roof. She fell with the rain as her eyelids grew heavy. She saw something white flow over her before her eyes closed and she blacked out.
Mercury rushed to the building only in time to see the explosion and the smoke. But that was it, no Sailor Moon and no flash from her scepter. She suddenly heard Harasu's evil laughter from top the roof, "No!" Mercury cried as fears formed in her eyes. She fell to her knees and covered her face with her hands.
Aries ran up to her, gasping for air, "Mercury?"
Mercury choked on her words but forced them out, "I was too late" she gasped, "She's gone"
Aries gasped sharply and looked up at the roof, feeling tear creep into her little cat eyes.
Sailor Moon awoke with her head against a wall. A figure stood in the light making her stand up sharply but lost her balance.
"No, don't get up. I'm a friend" he told her as he stepped out of the glare to help her sit back down again. He smiled at her as she glanced at him masked face, it was him, the Midnight Guardian.
"Where am I? What happened?" she asked as he helped her sit down on the ground.
"You're in an abandoned warehouse and you had fallen off a 20 story building, about to fall to your death" he told her as he sat down next to her.
She stared at him, "You caught me? From a fall that was under 20 stories?"
He nodded.
"Why?" she asked suspicious.
He shook his head, "I don't know" he looked at her and held her chin with his hand, "You…you just feel very important to me"
"But wh-?" she began but was silenced by his lips crashing into hers. She closed her eyes and her hand brushed his cheek.
"That is just so romantic" crowed Harasu at the door.
The two parted sharply, but surprised to be found so quickly.
"Surprised? It wasn't hard to find you when you carry that detector everywhere" he told them.
Sailor Moon's hand shot at the phone on her hip. She glared back at him.
"How predictable you Scouts have become" Harasu chuckled.
"Did you predict this?" she shouted and rushed at him, kicking his gut.
He reeled back and held his gut, "Why you?" he growled.
Sailor Moon smirked and did a spin, kicking him in the side which sent him flying into a crate.
Harasu pushed a large piece of wood off him, glaring up at her. But was surprised to see her hand on her head like she was gonna faint.
The Midnight Guardian rushed to her side and placed a hand on her shoulder, "You okay?" he asked.
"I'm alright now but I just suddenly felt dizzy" she told him as she looked up at him.
"You moved to fast after your last battle" he explained as he sat her down, "Rest awhile, I'll take care of the raven"
Sailor Moon nodded as she sat against a crate.
"Well…aren't you two just the cutest thing" Harasu growled as he pulled himself from the shattered crate.
The Midnight Guardian pulled out his sword and turned towards him.
"You want to fight me, I'm honored but I have to decline. I have other matters to take care of" Harasu bowed to him, "Arise, Kikyo" he muttered and a woman in an armored outfit stepped out of the shadows. She wore white leather with blood red armor, her long silver hair was pulled back into a high ponytail and her eyes flashed red.
"You called master?" she asked as she bowed to him.
Harasu nodded, "Finish him" he ordered, pointing at the Midnight Guardian.
"Yes, master" Kikyo mused as she stood up and faced the Midnight Guardian. She pulled out her twin katanas and fixed their points at him.
The Midnight Guardian glared at the two as he braced himself.
Kikyo rushed at him and attacked non-stop but he blocked them all.
While Harasu watched the two fight, he began to think of a way to finally destroy Sailor Moon.
Kikyo suddenly attacked with such strength that she flung the Midnight Guardian into one of the stone walls.
The Midnight Guardian grunted as blood splattered the ground from his mouth. Blood trailed down the corner of his mouth as he stood again to fight.
Kikyo suddenly grabbed his neck in a tight grip and squeezed until he dropped him sword. "Prepare to die, little man" she chuckled.
"Never" he gasped as he tried to break free when it was useless.
"Good, Kikyo, now finish him!" Harasu shouted.
"No!" Sailor Moon shouted, her hand flying up as a crescent moon appeared on her palm. It suddenly shot out and hit Kikyo's arm, blasting it clean off.
"AHH!" Kikyo screamed and she looked at her cut off arm, "You brat!" she rushed at her.
Sailor Moon closed her eyes, waiting for the pain but it never came. She opened her eyes to see Kikyo held in front of her but not attacking.
"Why can't I move?" Kikyo questioned angrily.
Sailor Moon suddenly saw the pulsating shield around her that glowed silver, "What?"
Harasu roared with rage, "Even without that Sailor Mercury you're still a pain!"
Sailor Moon smiled, "It won't stop there!" she pulled out her scepter and pointed it at Kikyo, "This is for hurting the Midnight Guardian!" she closed her eyes and then opened them, "Moon Cosmic Crash!" Kikyo turned into moon dust.
Harasu growled.
"This is for harming all those innocent people!" she shouted and on Harasu, "Moon Cosmic Crash!" and it hit him but had only wounded him.
"You-"
"AND this, this is for ruining my life!" she raised her arms, "MOON COSMIC CRASH!" a large silver bolt shot out at Harasu, who vanished into black flames.
"You'll regret this, I swear!" Harasu's voice echoed.
"Damn, got away" Sailor Moon muttered. The scepter disappeared and she rushed to the Midnight Guardian's side.
"Hey, are you alright?" she asked.
He groaned and opened his eyes behind his mask, "Sailor Moon?" he looked around, "What happened? Where's Harasu?" he sat up.
"Careful" she sighed, "Harasu's gone, fled again to plot his next attack"
The Midnight Guardian nodded and stood up but fell against the wall as blood flowed from his mouth as well as his head.
"You're hurt" she gasped.
"It's nothing" he muttered and took a step forward, stumbling over his feet but Sailor Moon caught him.
"Let me help, you can't walk on your own, not with that injury"
"It's fine, just hurry to your friend. She's probably worried" he stepped forward and but with his hand against the wall.
"And you?" she asked.
"I'll be fine" he smiled back at her, "Trust me" he said, looking right into her violet eyes with his deep sea blue.
Sailor Moon stated at him but nodded, "Alright, goodbye…and thank you…for saving me" she left.
"I should be thanking you" he muttered as he pulled off his mask, "Sailor Moon" Zander said.
