Sailor Moon Fan Fiction ❯ Sailor Moon AR ❯ Chapter 2

[ P - Pre-Teen ]

002:
Sailor Moon naturally was not beaten that
easily, and she fired off another blast with her scepter.
Coardite slid out of the way.
"Mars Fire Ignite!"
"Mercury Ice Storm Blast!"
"Jupiter Thunder Crash!"
"Venus Crescent Beam Smash!"
The four attacks hit Coardite and knocked him
about twenty feet into the road beyond. He leapt out of
the way of a speeding car and grimaced.
"Enough! I'm not about to fight all of them
now," he said and leapt off.
"So much for him," Mars said.
"Sailor Moon, are you ok?" Mercury asked.
"Ouch, he's evil," Sailor Moon said. "I just
didn't have anything to attack him with, my attack was
too slow, and my kick he was ready for."
"He looked like he's from the negaverse,"
Venus said.
"I thought we were through with those
imbeciles," Jupiter said.
"Apparently we aren't," Mercury said.
"Eh..I need another donut," Sailor Moon said.
Meanwhile on a rooftop above, the dark figure
watched all that was happening.
Coardite is afraid to fight all of them at once.
Maybe he's weak. After all, Sailor Moon is the most
vulnerable when her friends can't defend her. Still her
evasive skills are better then ever. This will be
interesting. The figure then headed off.
The scouts headed home and night fell over the
city.

Serena's dream was much too real. She was
running down the sidewalk, late for school, like she
always was, but she had an intuition that this wasn't
real. The fact that a twelve foot donut had just rolled
down the street was a big hint too. She continued to
run. She heard beside her and then a familiar voice.
"Hey, Serena, need a ride," it said. Serena
turned to see Darien's red sports car sitting there beside
her and her boyfriend at the wheel.
"Wait a minute. You're in America," Serena
said bridging the gap between reality and the dream.
"Fine then, pass up a free ride" Darien said and
both he and his car disappeared.
"What? Hey that's not fair!" Serena yelled.
"Darien! Come back!" she yelled.
"I'll give you a ride Serena," came another
familiar voice. She turned to see Melvin riding atop a
mule.
"Melvin, you've got to be kidding," She said.
"Hey I was just asking, besides I'm all you
have," he said and both he and the mule disappeared.
She picked up her running again. As she neared
Crossroads, a strange thing happened. The school
began to change and by the time she had reached it, it
had turned into a large mold of jelly rising fifty feet high.
Several students were standing around looking at it in
awe. Melvin was back still atop his mule had a
calculator out and was doing some calculations.

"What the heck is going on?" Serena yelled.
"Interesting dream isn't it?" Came Darien's
voice from behind her. She whirled around to see him
standing there holding a massive lolly pop in his right
hand.
"Darien! You're back!" She cried and moved
to hug him. He retreated.
"Hey, you might hurt the lolly pop!" he said.
"Uh...sorry, I'm just happy to see you."
"You weren't before."
"I was surprised all right? This is a pretty
strange dream I've got going here."
"You're telling me meatball head. I always
thought you've had a few screws loose," Darien said.
"Hey! I don't have to stand here and be
insulted. Don't call me meatball head!" Serena yelled.
"All right, all right," Darien said.
"So how are things in America?"
"How should I know? I'm a figment of your
imagination. I only know what you know."
"Oh that's right. Well...why don't you take a
guess?"
"UH...okay....I'm doing fine."
"That's great..I'm so glad to hear it!" Serena
yelled and jumped up and down. Darien sighed.
"Say Darien, since the school's a big pile of jelly
maybe we could go out somewhere or something,"
Serena said.
"Uh...sure," Darien said.
"Woo hoo, this is almost as good as being
awake," Serena said.

As Serena was oversleeping, the rest of Tokyo
was awakening.
Amy and Lita were walking to school at a
moderate pace.
"I've been thinking about what happened last
night Amy," Lita said.
"I couldn't stop thinking about it," Amy replied.
"I hate to say it, but it looks like we've got another
negaverse invasion to fight off."
"I guess. I can't wait to see what they have up
their sleeves," Lita muttered sarcastically.
"Someone has to fight them, and it looks like it's
going to have to be us."
"Yeah, I know. Maybe I'll see Steve again
today."
"Steve?" Amy said.
"Yeah. He looks like my old boyfriend. He's
so cute."
"Lita is there any reason nearly every boy in the
city of Tokyo looks like your old boyfriend?" Amy
asked skeptically.
Lita frowned.
"You wouldn't understand all this Amy. Love's
a complex thing," Lita said.
"Hey, I've got a boyfriend too!" Amy blurted
and then covered her mouth futilely.
"Hah hah, so you admit it!" Lita said.

Several blocks away at Central High, Raye
slumped in her chair.
It's so early in the morning and already I want
to go home. Jeez..I'm bored. She thought. Nothing
ever happens here. I wonder if the others are as bored
as I am. Knowing them they're probably half asleep
too. She sighed.
"For this experiment I'll need a couple
volunteers..never mind that...Fujimori! Hino! Get up
here!" the teacher said.
"Wha?" Raye said snapping out of her stupor.
"It's time for you two to learn a little science for
once. Now get up here!" the teacher said. Reluctantly
Rick and Raye moved to the front of the room.
"Hold out your left hands," the teacher said.
The two glanced at each other sharing the
apprehension.
"Do it," the teacher said. The students did so.
The teacher put a glob of goo in each of their palms
and spread it around.
"I don't like this," Rick said.
"Tough," the teacher said and grabbed his hand
sticking it in Raye's left hand in a second. The two tried
to let go, but found their hands were stuck together.
"Hey!" they both shouted. The class began to
laugh.
"This compound makes an excellent adhesive,"
the teacher said as the two desperately tried to
separate themselves.
"Bet this satisfies some of your fantasies eh
Raye," Rick said. Raye smacked him on the head with
her free right hand propelling him backward and thus
her forward. She landed on top of him as the two hit
the ground. Both let out a shout as the class continued
to die of laughter.
"Yikes, get off, get off," Rick said. Raye
hurriedly lifted herself up with her right hand.
"You idiot, I can't lift both of us," she said.
"Oh...yeah.." Rick muttered and pushed himself
off the ground.
"I've had my fun for the day," the teacher said
and dumped a glass of solvent on their hands
disintegrating the goo.
"You can go back to your seats now."
Both of them returned to their desks with scowls on
their faces.

At Highpark Junior High, Mina was listening to
her eccentric English teacher. it was today for the first
time she had noticed Mike was also in her class. She
glanced at him and saw that he was unamused as the
teacher rambled on.
"Now listen people, picture yourself as a
snowflake drifting aimlessly towards the Earth. Yes
you're beautiful, yes you're light and you're going to be
part of a Christmas morning. it's great, but . Some jerk
kid has to catch you on his tongue. How annoying is
that?" the teacher asked.
"Dang annoying," Mike said.
"Hah...Leslie, if I didn't know better I'd say you
were mocking me," the teacher said. "Let me ask
you...do you believe in reincarnation?"
"Sure," Mike said.
"Well..then....I look forward to seeing you in
your next life. The world will always need more
Shrews," the English teacher said and the glass began
to laugh, Mina included.
"Hah, but if I'm a Shrew then that means that I
have attained a higher spiritual level," Mike said.
"How so?" the teacher asked.
"Well...Shrews are a noble beast," Mike said.
"I wish I was a shrew right now."
"Leslie, you're missing the point."
"Ehh...and what if I am?"
"I'll tell you what, say Mina here was a
pomegranate."
Mina's eyes widened.
"Why would I be a pomegranate?" she asked in
surprise.
"Just play along," her teacher replied.
"Yes, humor him," Mike muttered.
"Okay, I'm a pomegranate," Mina said.
"Now say pomegranates can fly airplanes."
"Ah..which were built by shrews to airlift
supplies into East Berlin! I've got it!" Mike said.
"There you go! See? You've figured it out,"
the teacher said.
"It's the end of the world," Mike muttered.
"Mike. What was all this about?"
"Couldn't tell you Mina, but let's just say that if
you could comprehend , you would be lost forever."
They're both completely insane. Mina thought.
Still, Mike's cute so I'll ignore it.

At lunchtime, Mina walked slowly towards
Crossroads. She was startled by Mike appearing next
to her out of a side street.
"Walking alone? I would have thought you'd
have lots of friends," Mike said. Mina blushed at the
comment.
"Well I do. They're just all at Crossroads right
now," she said.
"Oh, well that's good. I've got a couple that
should be there too."
The two continued to walk along, unable to
think of anything else to say.
"Uh...read any good books lately?" Mina
asked, embarrassed the minute she said it.
"Actually, I prefer movies," Mike said.

"Oh, that's fine. I like a good movie myself,"
Mina said.
"Really?" Mike asked.
"Yep," Mina said.
"Uh huh," Mike said.
"That's right," Mina said.
"You know what?..I just have nothing to say
right now."
"Me too," Mina said.
"Well you know what I do in these situations?"
"What?"
"I shut up."
"Hmm....whatever works I guess."

A few moments later, Steve emerged from his
detention. He was surprised to see Lita standing
outside the room. As he walked out she immediately
called out to him.
"Hey, uh, Steve right?" she asked.
"Yeah," Steve said stopping.
"Steve. Uh..listen. I'm sorry I got you into
trouble today. I wanted you to know that. I shouldn't
have been talking to you," she said.
"it's okay," Steve said. "Serves me right."
"No it doesn't. No one was really paying
attention. Except for Amy that is, but she doesn't
count," Lita babbled.
"Yeah I guess," Steve said not really caring
what she had to say. He moved to walk out.
"Hey wait up, your drawing was really good
you know," Lita said.
"If you say so," Steve muttered.
"Don't you think it is? You seemed to think so
earlier," Lita said. Determined, she was going to keep
pursuing him until he talked to her.
"What I think is that my parents are going to
bawl me out again for getting into trouble at school,"
Steve said. Lita realized that even her charm wasn't
going to work. Not then.
"Well I don't want to cause any more trouble
than I already have so it'll just go. Still, if there's
something you need or something..."
"Don't worry about it. All right? I would have
probably gotten caught on my own. This is my
problem. There's no reason for you to get involved,"
Steve said and walked off.
"Uh..okay.." Lita said and just watched him go.
He looks like my old boyfriend. She thought.
Girls. Geez. Steve thought. Still....she is
attractive.

Coardite sat in the chamber of his headquarters
underground in a cave near Tokyo. I was only scouting
the place out anyway. He thought recalling his recent
failure to kill Sailor Moon. When I am ready to strike
she will find it much more difficult, it not impossible to
survive. Still I need a strategy.
He sighed.
He didn't have a lot to go on despite the fact
the Negaverse had already tried to invade the planet
twice with Beryl's force. Beryl's reports back to the
Negamoon rarely said what had worked and what
hadn't, because Beryl wasn't about to admit her
failures, instead blaming it on her minions. When she
did succeed though she was incredibly quick to say so,
but not say how. The only other source of information,
which he found much more useful was Malichite's
diary. The negaverse General also reported directly to
King Metallis. After all, Beryl was distrustful, and
Malichite was much more loyal to the negaforce. It
made sense for Metallis to keep an eye on Beryl.
Combining the two reports he had a fairly good idea of
the way the General's acted in their attacks on the
scouts. Jaedite was an idiot, that he knew. From the
outset Jaedite seemed incapable of coming up with a
plan that wasn't incredibly silly, of course Jaedite was
always a fool who Beryl only tolerated because he was
extremely loyal. It was of no surprise that the Sailor
Scouts, even at their weakest form, were able to beat
him. Though it was Beryl that finally put Jaedite into
eternal sleep. She was doing him a favor. Coardite
thought.
Nephlite was more effective. There was a
method to what he did, though his philosophy was
probably flawed. His strategy of finding people who
supposedly were reaching their highest energy point
was not exactly the safest idea, but even Malichite
admitted at times it showed promise. Of course then
Nephlite went and found a friend in that Earth girl.
What a fool to do that. He was a better soldier then to
find himself surprised to have feelings for a human. It's
mysterious he would be so weak. Of course the truth
was the Sailor Scouts weren't able to kill him either, it
was Zoicite and her minions that did that. Zoicite, now
there was a good general. She was the most
successful, managing to get all of the rainbow crystals
only to have them snatched away by forces the
negaverse still didn't really understand. She killed
Prince Darien, and successfully deceived the scouts
numerous times, as well as was able to kill Nephlite. A
pity she crossed Beryl.
Malichite of course spoke highly of himself, but
he had very little tact. He has always been a better
fighter then a strategist. Yet he attempted to use tactics
and failed miserably. He was the only General the
Sailor Scouts killed, which was surprising considering
he was the most powerful and most experienced. Yet,
the moon kingdom had the nasty habit of coming up
with surprise energy blasts or other nonsense at the
worst possible moment. That was what was so
annoying about fighting the Moon Kingdom. There
was no logic to their power, it seemed that no matter
how powerful an enemy got, they could always surpass
it. Well no matter, they'll be beaten somehow.
Coardite thought.
He walked down a corridor with some
trepidation to find his warriors. The negaverse's power
base was here and to establish a new one would take
so much energy that the nega moon did not care to
invest, so Coardite was stuck. As he walked in his
troops were all engaged in some sort of team sport.
The object was to get to the other side of the room
carrying a skull of some kind, and the way to that was
to incapacitate your opponents with your various
attacks. So he watched as the two sides charged at
each other shooting energy out of all parts of their
bodies and fighting hand to hand with their limbs, tails,
mouths, wings, claws, and whatever to succeed.

"Hey!" Coardite shouted. The game abruptly
stopped.
"What?" the group replied annoyedly.
"It's time to destroy the Sailor Scouts," he said.
"Sure it is," the group all said and started
laughing.
Coardite sighed.
"All of you shut up! I'm serious!"
"Yep, we know," They said.
Coardite growled.
"I need four of you, who want's to go?"
The group all shrugged.

At another table Rick, Mike, and Steve...sat
eating their lunches and shooting the breeze.
"You know guys....all girls think about is us..."
Rick said.
"I hear you," Steve said obviously reflecting on
his encounter with Lita.
"Why is that a bad thing?" Mike asked.
"it's not always, but...you know how they
are...they get a crush on you...and then...they're
everywhere you are...." Rick said.
"Exactly. They can't keep their hands to
themselves..." Steve said.
"I don't mind that kind of attention," Mike said.
"But think about it. When girls get into their
mode, they do it openly, following guys around,
stumbling into them....you know...girl stuff. When guys
get a crush...we hide in bushes...follow covertly....you
know...stalk...but at least she doesn't know we're there.
We're being nice," Rick said.
"Right....we don't bother them..we just admire
them," Steve said.
"You two have some strange ideas...but you
make a good point. How is it us guys are just so civil
about things?" Mike asked.
"it must be in the Y chromosome," Rick said.
The other two looked at him.
"You two don't know what it is do you?" He
asked.
The other two shook their heads.
"Okay...first there's a mommy and then there's
a daddy and they love each other very much..." Rick
began.

Coardite looked at his assembled troops. He
had picked his four best warriors. There was the four
headed Juterio, a relatively agile soldier. Relgar, who
had excellent aim. Hexio, the rebellious, but relatively
tough warrior, and of course Starag, a warrior whose
expertise was fire. Coardite was annoyed slightly that
he had to use his energy to power four other warriors,
but then again he would prefer to have each scout
engaged separately. Besides, that would leave Sailor
Moon to fight him, and that would be no contest, even
with some of his energy dispersed to his other four
minions.

"Now Sailor Scouts, there is something we
have to tell you, especially with this new threat," Luna
said.
"That's right," Artemis said. "All of you possess
hidden powers."
"Hidden powers?" Raye asked.
"Yes, Queen Serenity wanted you to learn how
to handle your energy powers first, but now it is clear
that you also need to rely on hand to hand fighting as
well as other abilities," Luna said.
"Amy, your intellect will give you the power to
understand any concept if you need to. However, the
knowledge is always short term. Still in a pinch it can
help you out. But use the power sparingly. You don't
want to clutter up your mind," Artemis said.
Amy nodded.
"Raye, your martial arts skills will be enhanced
when you call upon your powers," Luna said. "But
also know that this can result in strange consequences if
you aren't expecting to hit as fast or hit as hard as you
do."
Raye nodded.
"Lita," Luna continued. "Your physical strength
will be increased when you call upon your power, but
remember it runs out, so if you happen to pick up a car
or something, don't hold it too long. Your punches will
also pack more of a wallop too."
Lita grinned.
"Mina, your agility and speed will be
increased," Artemis said. "This will allow you to dodge
as well as be more flexible, but also be warned if the
power runs out and your strung out it'll hurt."
"Sounds fun," Mina said.
"What about me?" Serena asked. "I don't have
any cool skills."
"You have great strength of will," Luna said.
"And you unite your friends, and as such your power is
that of being able to utilize a small piece of each of your
friends abilities, Amy's intellect, Mina's agility, Raye's
martial arts, and Lita's power. But you can only use
one at a time, and there will be some adjustment to get
used to. Don't expect to be able to jump from one to
the other quickly or smoothly. And like all the scouts
the power has it's limits."
"Let's see your scepter Serena," Artemis said.
Serena pulled it out of the dimensional pocket it
resided in.
Luna and Artemis did a flip. The scepter
shimmered slightly.
"What happened?" Serena said.
"We enhanced it," Luna said. "If you need it, it
can become a sword."
"A sword?" Serena asked.
"Of course we were a little afraid to give you
one, given your tendency to fall down, but we're
hoping you can handle it," Artemis said.
Everyone sighed.
"I'll show you!" Serena said and stuck her
tongue out.

Meanwhile Coardite and his minions had strode
into the crown restaurant.
"I don't like the looks of those guys any," Rick
muttered from a booth.
"Yeah, they look like the goth crowd," Mike
said.
"So should we beat them up on principle,"
Steve said.
"I think that's a negative," Rick said.
"Too bad," Steve said.
The group all started to drain energy from the
patrons.
"Ah, so it's going to be that way is it," Mike
muttered.
"Maybe we should go," Rick said.
The three ducked under a table waiting for a
chance to escape.
"You four get out of sight," Coardite said. The
four minions disappeared.
Coardite then turned and blasted out the
numerous windows of the restaurant.
Police cars began to arrive.
"Oh not them again," he muttered and blasted
one apart.

The five scouts of course noticed about fifty
police cars racing down the street past them.
"That can't be good," Lita said.
"And it probably means only one thing," Raye
said.
The group all nodded and hurried off to
transform.
"Mars Star Power!"
"Venus Star Power!"
"Jupiter Star Power!"
"Mercury Star Power!"
"Cosmic Moon Power!"

"Humans, you cannot defeat me with bullets,"
Coardite said. "Why do you even try?"
"Eh, let's just kick his rear end," one of the
cops said. The group all nodded and charged.
"Fools!" Coardite shouted and hurriedly tried
to drain their energy.
This was unexpected he thought.

The five Sailor Scouts raced down the street,
and found the restaurant to be completely trashed and
surrounded by police cars.
"Looks like this is the place," Sailor Jupiter
said.
"Let's go," Sailor Moon said.
The five hurried to the entrance. Coardite
stood amidst the unconscious police and other civilians.
"So you all wish to face Coardite do you?" he
said.
The five scouts readied themselves.
"Well then let's go!" he said and launched his
energy attacks. They all avoided him.
"Look out! It's a trap!" Steve shouted from
behind a table.
"Fool!" Coardite shouted and blasted him to
the ground.
"A trap!" The five girls shouted and tensed.
Coardite's other four warriors leapt out and attacked.
The five leapt out of the way.
Coardite leapt at Sailor Moon. She dived
behind a police car and pulled out her scepter.
"Ok, Moon Sword. Get to work!" she said.
A beam of white light flew out and shattered the police
car's window.
"Whoops," She said.
Coardite charged her. She swung awkwardly
at him. He dodged it, but was still surprised.
"More surprises!" he muttered and swung his
claw at her. She jumped backwards.

Meanwhile Mercury's opponent was shooting
flames at her. She dodged them and looked for
someway to come up with a defense.
"Mercury Bubbles Blast!" She shouted
launching her fog. The creature shot out his flames and
the fog evaporated.
Mercury's eyes widened.
The creature laughed and leapt at her.

Juterio and Venus were sparring. Neither of
them was able to let loose any energy attack without
the other dodging, and apparently neither of them had
any real hand to hand skill. Juterio eventually
attempted a punch, but Venus flipped over him and
fired another crescent beam. He slid under it and
launched his own attack.
"So four heads huh?" Venus asked.
"What of it!" Juterio four heads said.
"You're ugly!"
Juterio growled.

Meanwhile Jupiter and Relgar were facing off,
each with their fists at the ready.
"So you're a brawler ey?" Jupiter asked.
"More or less," Relgar said. "Though after this
battle, you will be nothing but dust."
"That's what they all say."
Relgar threw a punch. Jupiter blocked it and
punched back.
"Ah, well met," Relgar said.
Jupiter punched him in the face. He staggered
back.
"I don't appreciate that!" he shouted and
swung back at her. She stepped aside, but he moved
quickly and punched her in the cut. She swung back
and hit him in the head.
The two were soon exchanging blows at an
incredible rate.

Sailor Mars kicked. Hexio knocked the kick
aside and threw his own sort of chop attack. Mars
blocked it as well and leapt into the air readying her fist.
Hexio leapt back, but she landed quickly and kicked
him in the chest. He staggered back. She leapt forward
and knocked him to the ground with a drop kick.
"Get up," she said.
"You are foolish for having honor!" Hexio
shouted shooting an energy blast at him. Mars dodged
it.
"Mars Fire Ignite!"
Hexio rolled out of the way.

Coardite chased Sailor Moon down the street.
"You can't run forever!" he shouted and
launched several more attacks. She dodged them and
then thought about Jupiter. Suddenly she was
surrounded by a green glow. She whirled and leapt at
Coardite hitting him in the face with a fist. Coardite
staggered back. She punched him twice more and then
leapt into the air knocking him back with a drop kick.
Coardite let out a shout.

Sailor Venus was at that moment trying out her
agility. Juterio was surprised when she speedily
dodged him as well as unleashed an attack followed by
a second. He was blasted into a police car which
exploded.

Sailor Jupiter called upon her power in time to
deliver an uppercut. Relgar flew backwards and landed
on the ground as well. Jupiter picked him up and threw
him into a wall.

Sailor Mars and Hexio continued to spar, but
Mars called upon her powers and blocked his attacks
quickly and kicked him four times in the head before
shooting fire at him point blank.

Meanwhile a massive explosion rocked the
road and ice flew everywhere.
"What was that?" Coardite shouted.
"The end of your friend," Mercury said.
"I don't know how....but...everyone let's just
get out of here," Coardite shouted.
The four negaverse warriors raced off.
The scouts let out a cheer and then let out sighs
of exhaustion.
"How did you do that Mercury?" Jupiter
asked.
"Long story," Mercury said. "But my power
worked really well. I was able to create and contain
combustion quite effectively."
The other scouts just glanced at each other.
"Of course what are we going to do about all of
them?" Mars said.
The group all looked at the unconscious people
in the restaurant.
"You girls can use your powers to give them
some energy, then with some rest they'll recover
eventually," Luna said.
"And once you defeat Coardite and you will,"
Artemis said. "They'll get all the energy back."
The scouts all nodded.
