Author’s Note: Hey guys, the third chapter is here *yeah*.  I’m guessing everyone enjoyed the first two chapters ‘cause you are now reading the third.  Now remember this is my first time doing an action sequence so bare with me.  I hope everyone enjoys this chapter.  This story, like my others, is a clean sappy romance (meaning no sex or cursing).  Enjoy!!

 

Disclaimer: SailorMoon, and of course that means Darien, does not belong to me…Everything belongs to the appropriate people.  No money is made from these stories, they are only written for fun.

 

A POLE ENCOUNTER

 

Chapter 3: A Yoma Encounter

 

“Mina, please slow down,” Serena huffed with fatigue.  The girls had been running ever since they left the Arcade, and Serena was exhausted.  “I can’t seem to catch my breath, and my head still hurts.”

 

Mina, concerned for her friend, slowed her pace.  “I’m sorry Sere, I didn’t mean to hurt you.  But we really need to hurry.”

 

“Why?”

 

“Because Sailormoon is needed,” Mina stated emphatically.

 

“Sailormoon?  Who is Sailormoon?” Serena asked feeling puzzled.

 

Mina cringed when she heard the dreaded question, “I had hoped you wouldn’t say that.”  Mina sighed as she slowed her pace to a brisk walk.  “Wow, where do I begin?  Luna is going to be so mad when she hears about this,” she said more to herself.

 

“Who’s Luna?” Serena asked curiously.

 

“It’s a long story.  I’ll sum it up real quick as we go, but we must hurry before it’s too late.”

 

< This must truly be an emergency, but I have no idea why she needs me.  I wonder who this Sailormoon person in, and Luna.  They sound like cartoon characters.  I guess I’ll find out soon enough. >

 

So the girls picked up their pace and Mina quickly explained to Serena everything that had been forgotten.

 

*****

 

“Are you kidding me?” Serena said in disbelief.  “You don’t really expect me to believe that outrageous story you told, do you Mina?”

 

Mina rolled her eyes, she knew Serena wouldn’t believe her, no normal person in their right mind would.  “I’m telling you the absolute truth Serena, you are Sailormoon.”

 

“Really, so I bet I can fly faster than a speeding bullet and have x-ray vision,” Serena said sarcastically. 

 

“Don’t be silly Sere, only Superman can do that.”

 

Serena rolled her eyes at Mina’s sarcastic comment.  “And to top it all off you tell me I’m a princess too.  Ha ha!  In what lifetime?  Mina you must be playing some type of weird prank on me.”

 

Mina gave up, she knew the only way to convince Serena was by taking her to the battle scene.

 

“I know I ran into a pole today and have amnesia, but I’m not an idiot Mina.  Why would you say things like…” But Serena didn’t get a chance to finish her statement because once they rounded the corner the sight before her rendered her speechless.  There in front of them was the nastiest, ugliest, most gigantic spider-like creature Serena had ever seen.  “Wha-what is that?” she stammered.

 

“That is a huge, grotesque yoma monster,” Mina answered very calmly.

 

Serena stood there in shock as her eyes took in the monster.  It looked like a huge black widow spider with a large body and eight long sharp legs, and a head that appeared human-like with flaming read hair.  She also saw dozens of people laying about the street drained of energy.  But the most peculiar part of the scene were the three oddly dressed girls jumping and dancing around the hideous beast, throwing fire, ice, and lightening at it.

 

< What is going on?  What strange demented portal did I just walk through?  This can’t be real, it has to be a dream.  Yeah that’s right, it’s only a dream…or rather a nightmare.  Maybe I fell asleep at the arcade and my warped brain is conjuring up this horrible image.  None of this is real.  There is no such think as a giant spider monster, and people can’t conjure up fire, ice, or lightening out of thin air.  Yup, just a bad dream.  Wake up Serena…please. >

 

Just then the fiery brunette with the skimpy red outfit ran over to them yelling about something.

 

“It’s about time you guys showed up!  What took you two so long?” Sailor Mars bellowed.

 

“Sorry Mars,” Mina said, “It’s a long story.  First Serena and I were walking to the arcade, then Darien showed up and…”

 

“Mina we don’t have time to hear your life story.  Hurry up and transform,” Sailor Jupiter reprimanded as she approached.

 

“Right!” Mina stated.  Then she held up her transformation wand and yelled, “Venus Power, Make Up!”  Suddenly there was a brilliant flash of yellow light, and a second later where Mina once was, now stood Sailor Venus.

 

Serena stood there in complete shock and awe.  < Wow!  What just happened?  That was so awesome.  This dream, in some ways, is pretty cool. >  Then she watched as Venus ran towards the yoma yelling something like a ‘crescent beam’.

 

“What are you standing there for Meatball Brains…Transform!” Mars yelled out to Serena, knocking her from her trance.

 

< By how rude, she sure does yell a lot.  Plus I have no idea what she’s taking about. >

 

“What is wrong with you?” Mars fussed, sounding a little bit concerned.

 

“That’s what I was trying to tell you,” Venus chimed in.  “She’s lost her…” But before Venus could finish her comment the yoma had turned its sights towards Serena and proceeded to spit out a gooey energy-draining web at her.

 

Serena froze like a deer caught in headlights.  It all happened so fast she didn’t know how to react.  But right as the spidery web was about to slam into her, Serena was roughly knocked to the ground.  As she and her savior rolled out of danger the only thought in her mind was why could she feel pain.

 

< This is just a dream, but it feels like I’ve been hit by a truck…ouch! >  As she opened her eyes she saw Sailor Mars laying beside her and firing off some flamethrowers at the yoma.

 

“Are you alright?” the fiery girl asked.

 

Serena nodded in reply.

 

“Well then go ahead and transform already and stop playing around,” Mars fussed as she grabbed Serena’s brooch and shoved it into her hands.

 

Serena stared at the beautiful piece of jewelry in her hands, which surprisingly pulsated with power.  Somehow this all felt familiar, like this power was a part of her.  < What is this suppose to be?  Mina was holding a pen when she transformed, so why do I have this brooch?  It is pretty, but what do I do with it? >

 

“Serena!” Venus yelled as she tied up some of the yoma’s legs with a chain made of glowing hearts.  “Just hold it up in the air and yell Moon Prism Powerrr…” she yelled as the yoma yanked on the chain sending Venus into the air.

 

To Serena’s amazement Venus did a double flip and landed gracefully on the ground.

 

“Hurry up Sere, do it.”

 

< Well even though this is a dream…I think…I still need to help my friends.  So what the heck. >  So Serena thrust the brooch into the air and yelled out, “Moon Prism Power…Make Up!”  Instantly she was enveloped from head to toe with white light as pink ribbons encircled her body.  She could feel the immense power course through her veins, and it was the most wonderful feeling she could ever image.  Then a split second later the light was gone and there stood Sailormoon.

 

< Wow!  That was incredible.  I actually am Sailormoon, how awesome is that…of course this is a dream, but it’s still cool.  I have to see what I look like. >  So Sailormoon stood in front of one of the shop windows to check out her new look.  “I look so cool, hee hee,” she squealed with delight as she turned around in circles.

 

“Sailormoon, what in the world are you doing?” she heard a small voice fuss at her.

 

She turned around to see who was talking to her but saw no one.  “Who said that?” she asked cautiously still scanning the area.

 

“Who do you think is talking to you?” Sailormoon heard from the little black cat say angrily.

 

Sailormoon’s eyes widened in fear and she let out an ear-piercing scream.  Then she tripped over her feet as she quickly backed away from the creature, falling to the ground hard.  As the cat approached her she quickly scrambled backwards away from the possessed cat.

 

“What is wrong with you?” the cat asked.

 

“Y-y-you can t-t-talk!” she stammered.

 

The cat gave her a puzzled look, “Yeah, so what’s wrong?”

 

At that moment Venus came jogging over after hearing Sailormoon’s cry of terror.  “Hey, what’s wrong?”

 

“That’s what I want to know.  Sailormoon’s acting like she just saw a ghost,” the cat replied.

 

“Oh yeah, I forgot to tell her,” Venus said laughing nervously.  “To make a long story short, Serena ran into a pole earlier today and now she has amnesia.  She doesn’t remember anyone, even her being Sailormoon.”

 

“Oh Great!” the cat said rolling her eyes with frustration.  “You just can’t help but be clumsy, huh?”

 

Serena was now confused as well as frightened.  It wasn’t normal for animals to talk, she didn’t hit her head hard enough to forget something like that.

 

“You alright Sailormoon,” Venus asked with concern.

 

“Th-the cat can talk…and you are ok with this Mina…ah Venus?” Sailormoon stammered.

 

Venus shrugged, “Oh that’s just Luna, she always sounds like that,” she said jokingly with a little giggle.

 

Serena’s eyes widened in surprise, “That’s Luna!  But she’s a cat.”

 

“Of course she is,” Venus said nonchalantly.

 

“But…” Serena stated, still not believing everything that was happening was real.

 

“Excuse me,” Luna interrupted roughly.  “If you two are finished playing around maybe you can go out and help the other scouts.”

 

The girls, forgetting about the dire situation, turned their attentions back to the battle at hand.  Mars, Jupiter, and Mercury had positioned themselves around the yoma.   Then they simultaneously let off their attacks.  “Mars Fire Ignite…Jupiter Thunder Crash…Mercury Ice Blast.”  The attacks were aimed at the yoma-spider’s legs, each attack cutting off one of the yucky limbs.  The yoma screamed out in pain.

 

“Yes!” yelled Venus as she flashed her victory sign.  “Victory is ours.”

 

“Don’t speak so soon Venus…look,” Luna said as she motioned back to the yoma.

 

To everyone’s surprise the yoma began growing a new set of legs replacing the one’s lost.

 

“What the…” Venus exclaimed, shocked at the unfortunate turn of events.  “Mercury, what’s happening?” she yelled to the blue-haired warrior.

 

“It appears as though this yoma has an efficient means of survival.  It seems to heal at an exponential rate which makes our attacks ineffective against it,” Mercury explained as she typed furiously on her digital hand-held computer.

 

“English Mercury,” Venus sighed in exasperation.

 

“It means this yoma heals too fast and we don’t have enough firepower to kill it.  Every time we hit it with one of our attacks it heals before we can get another attack out,” Mercury clarified.

 

“So what do we do?” Sailormoon asked with great concern.

 

“I’m trying to run a scan to find its weakness.  If I can find a weak point then maybe we can destroy it.”

 

< Oh no, this seems hopeless.  What can I do to help?  How can I help?  If all of them can’t destroy this hideous beast, how in the world can I do it?  I don’t even know what kind of power I have, or even how to use it.  Maybe Venus can tell me. >

 

“You go ahead and figure out a weakness Mercury while we distract it,” Venus said giddily as she ran out to help the other scouts.

 

< Well I guess I’ll have to get my answers from…*gulp*…the cat.  It’s ok Serena, she’s a friend…I hope. >  “Um Luna,” Sailormoon said as she tried to control the shakiness of her voice.  “How can I help?”

 

Luna gave her a curious look then smiled.  “You can probably use your tiara.  But let me see if Mercury has found a weakness yet.  Mercury, have you found it?”

 

“Almost, give me one more second,” Mercury said as she continued to type on her computer.

 

Sailormoon took off her tiara from her head and began to scrutinize it.  < This is my power!  I thought it’d be something more like fireballs or something.  What am I, some type of ninja? >  As she contemplated her powers she looked up and saw both Mars and Venus get thrown into a building.  < Oh no, my friends.  I have to help them.  Dream or not, I need to do something. >  So gathering up all her courage Sailormoon tightly gripped the tiara in her hand, and then took off in a sprint towards the creature.

 

Luna noticed Sailormoon’s swift departure and looked to see what had happened.  To her utter disbelief Sailormoon was running towards the yoma with determination in her eyes.  “Sailormoon, what are you doing?” she yelled at the scout with fear laced in her voice.

 

Sailormoon ignored her knowing, somehow, what she was doing was right; and that was to save her friends.  Since Sailor Jupiter was occupying the yoma’s attention, it didn’t see her running at it.  At the last moment she leapt into the air doing a double somersault, and landed gracefully on the creature’s back; just as Jupiter was thrown into a tree.

 

< Wow, that was amazing.  How in the world did I know I could do that?  I think I like having this power…eek! >  As Sailormoon was reveling in her performance the yoma had turned its ugly head around, like a scene from ‘The Exorcist’, to glare at the girl.

 

< Eww, I thought it was ugly from far away, but it’s hideous up close. >

 

“how dare you jump on my back,” the creature hissed venomly.  “I know I will take great pleasure in sucking all the energy out of you, and maybe have the rest of you for dessert later…hee hee.”

 

Sailormoon glared at the yoma and stated with courage unbeknownst to her, “You’ll have to catch me first bug brain!”

 

The yoma then screamed out in anger, “How dare you call me a bug you little cretin.  I’M AN ARACHNID!”

 

“I don’t see any difference.  You both squish the same under my boots,” Sailormoon said with a wicked grin.  < What in the world am I saying?  I’m standing on this monster’s back, which is extremely disgusting, and I’m insulting it.  I don’t even have a game plan.  Well I guess I’m gonna have to wing it. >

 

“You will pay for that comment,” the yoma yelled furiously.  We’ll see who the bug really is.”

 

Then out the corner of Sailormoon’s eye she saw one of the yoma’s spidery legs coming down to spear her.  By instinct she dodged the fatal blow, and in result the yoma stabbed itself in the back.  The yoma screamed in agony from the self-inflicted wound.

 

< It seems like this creature is very sensitive on its body…hmm. >  Suddenly Sailormoon had and idea of how to take this ‘bug’ out of commission.  She twirled her tiara around in her hand until the sharp part was face down.  Then she ran up the rest of its back dodging swinging legs, and as she reached the top she drove the tiara into the spider’s body.  The yoma let out a blood-curdling scream as Sailormoon slid down its back while slicing through it with her tiara on the way down.

 

Once she landed on the ground she sprinted out a distance away from the bellowing yoma.  She finally turned around and noticed the creature rolled over still hollering in pain with green goo squirting from its wound.

 

“Alright!  Way to go Sailormoon,” Venus squealed with glee.

 

“Meatball Head actually did something useful for once, without crying like a baby,” Mars added.

 

“I have found the yoma’s Achilles' heel,” Mercury stated.  “Thanks to Sailormoon I can tell its body can’t defend against our blows as well as its legs, and its healing capacity is significantly lower.  But I believe its primary weakness is the central point of the torso…”

 

“English Mercury,” Venus interrupted harshly.

 

“We need to aim for the spot underneath its belly,” Mercury clarified gruffly, feeling a little agitated with Venus.

 

“Cool beans, let’s destroy that yoma,” Jupiter exclaimed with excitement.

 

“The best time to get it is now while it’s still weak,” Mercury added.

 

“Then let’s go,” Jupiter stated as she took off towards the yoma.  “Oh yeah, good job Sailormoon,” she yelled back.

 

“Yeah good job, you did great,” Venus stated and winked before she ran after Jupiter, Mars and Mercury.

 

< I can’t believe it I actually kicked butt. >  “Oh yeah…I’m great…I beat the monster,” Sailormoon sang and did a little victory dance to celebrate her defeat of the monster.

 

“Oh no,” Mercury yelled, “It’s healing too fast.  Scouts hit it now before it regains all its strength.”

 

The scouts fired at the yoma but had little effect as it deflected the attacks with its legs.  The creature was mad, and it had set its sights on the carefree dancing blonde girl.  Suddenly the yoma took off at a mad dash towards Sailormoon.

 

“Sailormoon look out!” Mercury screamed.

 

Sailormoon heard the screams of the scouts and stopped in mid step to see what danger was before her.  She immediately saw the spider-yoma charging towards her at full speed.

 

Jupiter and Mars kept firing on it but to no avail.  The yoma was hell-bent in getting to Sailormoon and no one was close enough to save her.

 

Sailormoon froze in terror.  She didn’t have time to run or scream, so she closed her eyes not wanting to see her inevitable death.  Then she felt the impact.  < It was not as hard as I thought it would be.  Maybe I only felt a little of the pain before I died…yeah that must be it.  And now my angel is carrying me off to heaven. >

 

Slowly she opened her eyes and when she did she found herself gazing at an extremely handsome face with a black mask over his eyes.  She saw he had jet-black hair under his top hat and piercing ocean blue eyes, which looked very familiar.  Sailormoon couldn’t get over the beauty of her angel, even though she had expected a white robe and white wings, she wasn’t about to complain about the fancy black tuxedo.

 

“You are so beautiful.  Are you my angel?” she asked dreamy-eyed to the angel holding her in his arms.  < If I knew heaven was going to be like this I would’ve come sooner…hee hee. >

 

The angel looked at her with shock and confusion written on his face.  “Wh-what did you say?” he asked, surprised that this was the second time that day someone asked him that question.

 

But Sailormoon wasn’t paying attention to his confusion.  “Wow, two hot guys in one day…I’m so lucky…even though I’m dead…but who cares,” she said aloud with glee.

 

The man shook the confusion out his head then set crazed girl on her feet.  “You are not dead Sailormoon, and I’m not any angel.”

 

“Really?  Then this must be a dream…Ouch!” she yelled as the man pinched her arm.  “Why did you pinch me?”

 

“To prove that you are awake.  And next time Sailormoon, vanquish the yoma First, then do your victory dance,” the masked (non-angel) man reprimanded.

 

Sailormoon’s face began to turn red from embarrassment.  < Goodness I feel like an idiot.  This is the second time today I’ve humiliated myself in front of a gorgeous man by opening my mouth.  How I wish this were a dream. >

 

She then looked around to see where she was and noticed she was on top of one of the buildings.  She peered over the edge and saw the rest of the scouts trying hard to battle the yoma who seemed pissed off.

 

Sailormoon looked back at the handsome tuxedo man, “Did you save me?”  < Duh, of all the stupid questions.  Why do you keep saying dumb things in front of drop-dead gorgeous men? >

 

“Yes I did,” he responded nonchalantly.

 

“Thank you.”

 

“You need to get down there and help out the other scouts,” he said, completely ignoring her kindness.  “I would be helping but instead I’m rescuing you from disaster…again.”

 

< Man, he’s definitely a jerk.  He could at least say ‘you’re welcome’ first.  He might be cute but he doesn’t compare to Darien.  My Darien is a hottie and he’s sweet.  This fool is talking to me like I’m some kind of clumsy buffoon that always needs rescuing.  Maybe he always acts like this, I don’t remember, but I’m not going to let him talk down to me anymore. >  “Look buster, no one forced you to save me ok.  And I know I need to help my friends, I am Sailormoon after all…and the Moon Princess.  So I probably have lots of power…I just need to find out what it is that’s all.  So thank you for your assistance but it most definitely was needed,” she said with her head held high in confidence.

 

To her surprise the masked man looked at her as though he had just seen a ghost.  “You-you’re the Moon Princess?”

 

“Of course!” she said matter-of-factly.  “Well that’s what Mina told me.”  Then she saw the shocked expression on his face and knew she had made another mistake.  “Oh my goodness, I can’t believe I just told you that.  I’m so stupid.  No I’m not stupid, why would I know that you weren’t a part of the group…I mean look at you.  Who in there right minds would be walking around the streets dressed as you are?   You are a man fully decked out in a sexy black tuxedo with a top hat looking very…handsome and strong…with a tantalizing mask over your dreamy sparkling blue eyes,” she said quickly, then had to shake her head to clear her mind of thinking about his gorgeous features.

 

The man looked at her strangely, “Sailormoon are you ok?”

 

“Yes, I’m fine.  I’m sorry if I sound weird, I’m just not myself today.”

 

“I can see.”

 

“Well actually I ran into a pole earlier today and now I have amnesia.  So I really don’t know who you are, I’m trying real hard to remember.  It’d be a real shame to forget someone as hot as…I mean someone like you.”

 

The masked man went into complete shock again.  He staggered backwards a bit and put his hand over his chest as he tried to regulate his breathing.

 

“Are you alright?” Sailormoon asked with concern.

 

He brought his gaze back up to her but this time he seemed to be examining her very closely.  “How did…” But before he could ask his question he was interrupted by a voice below.

 

“Tuxedo Mask, Sailormoon, we need you down here Now!” Sailor Mercury bellowed.

 

< Tuxedo Mask…I like it. >

 

In an instant Tuxedo Mask’s demeanor reverted back to his earlier serious form.  Then in one swift motion he gathered Sailormoon into his arms and jumped off the side of the building.  Sailormoon closed her eyes and buried her face in his chest, which surprisingly smelled like roses, just like Darien.  But she didn’t have time to dwell on that because they were already on the ground and he was setting her on her feet.

 

“It’s about time,” Venus fussed.  “What were you two doing up there, hmm?”

 

Both Sailormoon and Tuxedo Mask blushed at Sailor Venus’ insinuation.

 

“We were just talking Venus and…” Sailormoon started but Mercury interrupted.

 

“We don’t have time for this.  We have to destroy that yoma before it sucks up all the energy in town,” Mercury stated firmly.  “I have a plan so everyone listen up.”

 

As Mercury explained her plan Sailormoon couldn’t help but sneak little peeks at Tuxedo Mask.  < Why do I feel this connection with him?  What is wrong with me, was I always this shallow of a person who falls for every cute guy I meet?  But there’s something about him that I can’t put my finger on.  No…I can’t think these things, I’m in love with Darien.  But what if I’m not?  Oh I wish I could remember. >

 

“Sailormoon!” Mercury stated snapping Sailormoon out of her thoughts.  “Are you ready?”

 

< Oh crap, I have no idea what she said. >  “I think so,” she answered meekly.

 

“Well you better be,” Mars added.

 

“Com’on scouts, let’s go kick some yoma butt,” Venus announced energetically.

 

As the scouts took off to their positions, Sailormoon slowly wandered over feeling unsure of what to do.  < Think, think…I’m suppose to hit something with my tiara…if I could only remember. >

 

“Are you alright Sailormoon?” a strong deep voice said behind her.

 

“I’m not sure I can do this.  I don’t know what to…”

 

“Don’t worry Sailormoon, I believe in you,” Tuxedo Mask stated as he gazed deeply into her eyes and then lightly caressed her cheek.

 

Sailormoon was stunned at the sweetness displayed from this masked man.  She couldn’t prevent herself from blushing at his show of affection, nor stop the onslaught of butterflies from dancing around in her stomach.

 

“Just believe in yourself and your friends.  You always come through in the end.  Remember that!” he stated before he ran off to distract the yoma.

 

Sailormoon stood there and wondered, < He believes in me, and so do my friends.  I can’t let them down, I need to try my best.  I can do this, I know I can. >  So she sprinted down the street to help her friends.

 

The fight was getting rough.  Mars through a couple of flamethrowers as Jupiter struck it with lightening and Venus threw a few crescent beams to knock out some legs.

 

“Ok scouts, we’re all in position,” Mercury stated.

 

But once the yoma laid its eyes on Sailormoon it started to advance on her.

 

Sailormoon stood her ground.  < I’ve got to be brave, I can do this.  Hopefully I can kill it before it kills me. >

 

“Sailormoon move out the way, it’s gonna run you down,” Venus yelled.

 

But everyone saw that the brave girl wasn’t going to budge.  She was going to stand her ground and destroy the monster.  As the yoma closed in Tuxedo Mask jumped in front of Sailormoon and fired off a dozen long-stemmed roses at the beast.  One of the roses came into contact with its face, which halted the creature’s pursuit causing it to reel back in pain.

 

“Now scouts,” Mercury commanded.

 

So simultaneously Mars, Jupiter, and Mercury fired their attacks on the yoma’s front legs, which caused it to lean back on its hind legs.  On cue Venus shot out her Love-Me-Chain, tied it around the creature’s torso, then pulled with all her might so its underside was exposed.

 

Sailormoon stood in awe at the teamwork that was being displayed.  < These girls are so awesome.  I’m so glad they want someone like me in their group.  I think we will actually be able to destroy this monster. >  She stood there admiring the other scouts, not sure when she should attack.

 

“Now Sailormoon,” Tuxedo Mask stated firmly.

 

< I guess that’s my cue.  I hope this works. >  So she took her tiara and with all her strength flung it at the yoma right at the sensitive spot on its belly.

 

The yoma let out a horrific scream and in the next second dissolved into dust.

 

< Oh my goodness…I did it!  I can’t believe I destroyed it, me! >  Sailormoon couldn’t move.  She was so full of emotions she didn’t know whether to scream with joy, cry, laugh, or faint.  She couldn’t believe that she and the scouts destroyed the impossible, which drained people of energy and tried to kill her.

 

As Sailormoon looked around she saw the gobs of people who were laying along the street start to get up as their energy slowly began to return.  She also saw the other scouts cheering and hugging each other feeling relieved that the danger was over.  The sight of her friends’ happiness and the city turning back to normal warmed her heart immensely.

 

“Good job Sailormoon,” she heard the deep masculine voice behind her whisper into her ear.  “You can do your victory dance now.”

 

Sailormoon smiled brightly.  He was right, she did come through in the end…and she could do her victory dance.  “How about we do one together,” she said laughingly then turned around to face him.  But when she turned he was nowhere to be found.  She scanned high and low…but no Tuxedo Mask.  She gave a little frown.  < I can’t believe he’s gone.  That jerk left me alone so I could look like an idiot talking to myself…figures!  I wish he had stayed though, ‘cause I really wanted to know who he was.  Maybe I’ll get another chance later…I hope so, or maybe Mina knows.  But for some strange reason I’m missing him already. >

 

“Hey Sailormoon,” Venus called out to her friend.  “Why do you look so sad?  You were great girl.  You dusted that yoma monster, and you showed more bravery than I have ever seen before from you,” she complimented as she gave Sailormoon a hug.

 

“Thank you Venus.  All I did was try my best,” Sailormoon replied warmly as the smile returned to her face.

 

Then all the other scouts and Luna came over to congratulate Sailormoon for a job well done.  After the quick celebration the scouts detransformed and they started their way towards Raye’s temple.

 

“Now will someone please tell me what’s going on with Serena,” Raye inquired roughly.

 

“I will Raye,” Mina answered with a bright smile, “and I bet you will find this story ‘very’ interesting.”

 

So the girls listened to Mina recant the details of the past couple of hours.  And Raye decided to have a sleepover that night so Serena could get reacquainted with her friends.  Also Luna wanted Amy to run some scans on Serena to make sure she was alright.

 

Serena couldn’t be happier to spend time with her friends and learn about her forgotten thoughts.  Hopefully she could find out a thing or two about the mysterious Tuxedo Mask.

End of Chapter 3

 

Finally!  It took me longer than I thought to type out chapter 3.  I hope everyone enjoyed.  I know, I know…I messed up on some of the scout’s powers, but it’s been a while since I’ve watched a SM episode.  I couldn’t quite remember all the powers correctly so I just made up my own…hee hee :)  Anyway, I want to think all my buddies that read my stories for me.  Thank you Shorooky, Linda, Brandi, and the lovely Miss Zooky Wooky *wink*.  Ok, I’m done with chapter 4.  Hopefully I can upload it right away.  Remember be nice with comments please. *blushes shyly*    God Bless!!
