Chapter 3: The Black Rex
Serena, Rini and Hotaru enter the house.
"What a day." Serena said.
They pass the living while seeing sleeping Kaorinite on the sofa.
"As usual." Hotaru said as she and her friends head to the kitchen.
When they enter, they saw a fridge door opened.
"Not the usual." Hotaru said.
Serena then saw a brown leather australian hat hanging on the chair. Serena went to pick it up but when she nearly close to it, a blade land it's flat side on her hand. The sword belong to Killer Chris Orca.
"Do not touch the hat, please." Killer Chris said as he pick up and put on his hat.
"You again?!" Rini said.
"The Pirate!" Hotaru said.
Killer Chris stare at Serena, "Blonde one looks so familiar. Have I threated you before?"
"I don't think so." Serena said.
"Oh, OK. I love to stay and chat, but I have pirate things to do. So, if you excuse me?" Killer Chris asked as he head through the hallway.
Suddenly, Serena grab the sword from the sword wall mount display and took a stand, surprising herself and the girls.
Killer Chris however, "You sure this is wise, Blondy? A clumsy girl crossing blades with a pirate?"
"Pirates are evil" Serena said.
Killer Chris Orca slide his blade over Serena's, "Only few."
With that, Serena and Killer Chris starts parrying for the while.
"For a clumsy looking girl, you got moves. I'll give you that. But how does your footworks? If I step here..." Killer Chris crossed his foot over and moved in an imaginary circle. Serena kept up, and maintained her distance, "Very good. Now I step again." This time he went to the right completely. The pair ended up on opposite sides, with Killer Chris by the kitchen door. "Bye.
Killer Chris sheathed his sword and quickly moved to the door.
However, Serena unknowingly grab a plate and throw it like a frisbee. The plate got stuck on the door and fame, keeping the door lock. Just badly missed the pirate captain.
Killer Chris turn to Serena and made his way to her as she point the sword at him, "That's a very cool trick, Blondy. But I'm afraid that once again, you're between me and my way out. And the best part of all..." Killer Chris carefully grab Serena's blade and quicky bend it backwards, surprising Serena and girls, "You now, have no weapons."
"Serena!" Hotaru said as she throw another sword to her best friend's sister(In her mind).
Serena grab the handle and starting to parrying with Killer Chris. A while later, Killer Chris got close to Serena and they run to the wall and smash through!
"My Wall!" Hotaru said.
Killer Chris and Serena roll over Dinning Room and still parrying. They then jump to the table then parrying around til Killer Chris stomp the table side, launch Serena through the celling.
Killer Chris smile till he saw a piece of celling fall and hit the other side of the table, launch Killer Chris through the celling as well.

However, before Serena could do anything, Thunder tackle and claw her while Killer Chris flip over her and land near Kaorinite and the girls. Killer Chris grab Rini and aim his pistol at her head.

"...That's cheating." Rini said.
"Pirate. What do you expect?" Killer Chris asked.
Killer Chris then see an open window and about made his way when Serena with few scratch marks, got in his way once again.
"Out of a way." Killer Chris said as he press his pistol on Rini's head.
Suddenly, Killer Chris gets the shock! Killer Chris fell unconscious with Dr Tomoe standing behind him, holding taser. Thunder is about to attack but Kaorinite grab it and manage to place him in a laundry basket before close the lit and place few things on the lid.
"I'll call the police." Kaorinite said.
(Night time)
"And then I grab the sword and parrying with that pirate like I know what I doing even though I never handle swords before." Serena said to her friends at Raye's place.
"That's unbelievable." Lita said.

Killer Chris Orca is in his cell of prison, heard a guns firing, "I know those guns!" Killer Chris scurried to the barred window and peered through. "It's the Rex."
"The Black Rex?" A prisoner in the next cell asked. His voice wavered slightly in fear. "I've heard stories… she's been preying on ships in the middle of the ocean for nearly thousand years… and never leaves any survivors."
"No survivors, you say." Killer Chris turned to face the prisoner and smirked. "Then where do the stories come from?"
This dumbfounded them for a moment.
Cannon balls rain down on the city. Coming from the sailing ship, are group of pirates! The pirates attack very building and cause a total chaos.
(Meanwhile)

"Parley! We invoke the right of parley. According to the Code of the Brethren, set down by the pirates Morgan and Bartholomew, you have to take me to your Captain." Hotaru said.
"I know the code, you little brat." Skinny woman said.
"We're rogue pirates, Belle! We don't follow the code!" Chubby man said.
"That girl wants to see our captain, Brute! And she and her friend will go. We have job to do." Belle said with her pistol at Sailor Mini Moon's forehead.

"But how?" Tuxedo Max asked in surprise.
But before anything could happen, The other pirates running, whack Sailor Moon and Tuxedo Mask on their heads, knocking them out cold.
(Meanwhile)
In the jail, all the prisoners quickly jumped away from the exterior wall as a cannonball flew towards it, blowing a hole in the cell next to Killer Chris'
The prisoners all jumped out and scarpered. One of them turned to Killer Chris and said, "MY sympathies, pirate friend. You've no manner of luck at all," before jumping out of the hole.
Killer Chris watch them leave, "Finally, peace and quite. Now then..." Killer Chris look at the cage door, "They no hook-and-ring hinges like before. But with just one punch can do it." With that, Killer Chris punch the door hard, breaking the door down and then Killer Chris made his escape.

Thunder lift his right leg, showing a band from animal rescue.
"I see." Killer Chris Orca said.

"Told you this ain't the armory store house." A skinny man said.
Just then, the crazy looking beard man notices Killer Chris, "Well, well. Look who we have here, Sammy. Captain Killer Chris Orca."
Sammy smile at Killer Chris, "Last time we saw you. We killed you crew and you were left all alone on a God-forsaken island in the Moon Kingdom a lone time ago, shrinking into the distance. His fortunes aren't improved much, Jake."
Jake and Sammy laughs.
"Worry about your own fortunes. The lowest circle of hell is reserved for murderers like you two rats." Killer Chris said, ignoring their laughter.
They stopped, and sent Killer Chris glares. Then suddenly, Jake reach and grab Killer Chris' neck! The moonlight in the jail yard, caused Jake's arm to become demon like arm.
"So the stories are true. There IS a curse." Killer Chris said.
"You know nothing of hell." Jake said before he release pirate captain and both he and Sammy went off.
After rubbing his sore neck, Killer Chris grab the gate and pull it off.
"Papa Sparrow was right. That's a very interesting curse." Killer Chris said.
(Meanwhile)

Once they gotten onto the ship, Hotaru saw her father and Kaorinite talking to someone with them. Just then, red haired busty woman name Cruella, arrive them them and two pirates.
"I thought we're after one girl." Cruella said.
"Those two have invoked the right of parley with Captain Angelica Teach." Belle said.
Sailor Mini Moon then stepped forward, "I want to kno-" she was cut off as the Cruella slapped her across the face, "You'll speak when spoken to, you little brat."
As Hotaru check on her hero friend, a other woman, wearing black paisley vest with gold designs on it, white off-the-shoulder peasant shirt with long sleeves, flattering black corset with a gold trim, black belt with a gold designed buckle, both matching pants and knee-high boots with heels, matching hat with band, thick gold square outlined buckle, and large fluffy beige feather on it, silver ring, gold cross necklace and long burgundy jacket with black lapels, arrive with Dr Tomoe and Kaorinite. Aroubnd her shoulders, is a weasel. Then she grab Cruella's wrist.
"And you'll not lay a hand on those under the protection of parley." A woman; Captain Angelica Teach, said.
Cruella look down, "Aye, Ma'am. It won't happen again."
Angelica then turn to the girls, "My apologies, Miss."
Hotaru turn to Angelica, "Captain Angelica, I want to make a request."
The pirates laugh as Angelica says, "Big words from the little girl. What is it that you want?"
"I want you to leave Tokyo and never come back." Hotaru said.
Angelica smirked, "I'm disinclined to acquiesce to your request." Hotaru and Sailor Mini Moon looked confused, while the pirates all laughed, "That means 'no'." Angelice said, noting the look upon Girls' face.
"Fine." Hotaru sudden took the pistol from one of the pirates, move few feet away before aim the pistol on her forehead, "I'll do it."
Angelica looked at the other pirates, who were concerned. She then turned back to Hotaru and said, "A little girl means no matter to us. Why?"
"I'm what you're looking for. I know I have something evil inside of me that you'll need for something." Hoatru said.
"Have you now?" Angelica asked.
"Well... If I'm worthless then there's no point for me to live." Hotaru pull the trigger *Click!* And the pirates lunged forwards.
Angelica realized she'd been caught and eyed Hotaru carefully. She smile till she saw something shiny on Sailor Mini Moon's chest. She eyed the pinky.
"What's you name, small fry?"
"Sailor Mini Moon! That's all you get from me." Sailor Mini Moon said with a glare.
Angelica's eyes widen before she turn to her pirates with a smile, "Miss Moon!"
The Pirates all laughed and clapped, while Belle muttered, "The king."
Angelica turned back to Sailor Mini Moon, And where did you get that Locket? Family heirroom?"
"It was given to me." Sailor Mini Moon said.
Angelica then turn to Hotaru, "Very well, little girl. You come here and give me the pistol. You come with us and we'll leave that place and never return."
Hotaru stare at a female pirate captain before she step follow, giving Angelica the pistol which was then given to it's owner.
"Hotaur, don't do it!" Sailor Mini Moon said for her friend.
Hotaru turn to her hero friend, "I have to." Hotaru then turn to Angelica, "Our bargain?"
Angelica walks away while nodded to her frist-mate.
"Still the guns and stow them, Signal the others, set the flags and make good to clear port." Cruella ordered.
Hotaru run after Angelica with Sailor Mini Moon follow, "Wait! You have to take her to shore. According to the Code of the Order of the Brethren –."
Angelica turned to face her, grimacing, "First, her return to shore was not part of our agreement so I must do nothing. And secondly, you and your friend must be a pirate for the pirate's code to apply and you two are not. And thirdly..." Angelice knee down to Sailor Mini Moon while stoke the Locket, "The code is more what you'd call 'guidelines' than actual rules. Not to mention that the code is way out-of date." Angelica quicky, grab the locket and pull it off, de-transform Sailor Mini Moon back to Rini, "Welcome aboard the Black Rex, Miss host and Miss Moon." Angelica then turn to the pirates, "Take them to my cabin!"
