Sailor Moon Fan Fiction ❯ Sailor Moon AR ❯ Chapter 6

[ P - Pre-Teen ]

006:
It was dark. Serena crept along the hallway
trying to make out the shape's in front of her. She
passed by a table. A rush of cold air swept passed her.
She winced, but continued on her way.
A small light appeared in front of her. Then
several more followed. They came closer. Serena held
back her fear to try and figure out what the light was.
The room became filled with light and she could make
out the shapes of several hooded figures. All of them
carried a candle.
"What is this?" Serena asked.
"This is the Eternal Brotherhood of Samurai
Monks," came a familiar voice. She looked to see
Darien standing there in a robe, his hood pulled back to
reveal his face.
"Darien! What are you doing here?" Serena
asked.
"I've joined them. After all, I get so much
more out of being one of the world's most dangerous
monks then I did going out with you," he replied.
"You can't mean that!" Serena shouted.
"Oh I mean it alright," Darien said and turned
to rejoin the procession.
"You jerk!" Serena yelled and slapped him in
the face. In that instant time seemed to stop. The
procession came to a halt. The monks all turned
towards her and took their hoods off. A grey haired
monk approached her.
"You have just attacked a member of the
Eternal Brotherhood of Samurai Monks. You will have
to suffer the consequences of your actions," he said.
"Uh oh," Serena said and backed away.
"GET HER!" the monk shouted and the whole
group charged at her. She let out a whine and raced
down the hall.
She became aware quite quickly that she
wasn't in a dark hallway anymore. Instead she was
running across a plain of green grass. The monks were
still pursuing her though. A figure stood ahead of her
dressed in a samurai outfit and holding a large sword.
"Maybe he'll help me," she said to herself.
She had no idea who it was until she got closer and
could see under the helmet the face of the person.
"MELVIN!" She shouted.
"Fair Serena, I will defend thee," Melvin said
readying his sword.
"You idiot! You're a samurai not a knight of
the round table!" Serena shouted.
"Hmm...that's not important now," Melvin said.
Serena stood behind him. The monks approached and
stopped.
"Ruroni Melvin, this is not your concern," The
leader of the monks said.
"It is now," Melvin said.
"I do hope you realize there are about twenty
of us and one of you."
"Yeah."
"Melvin are you nuts?" Serena asked from
behind him.
"Trust me, I am skilled in seven forms of armed
and unarmed combat. I can handle this," Melvin said.
I think I'll get out of here anyway. Serena
thought and continued to run. The monks let out a
battle cry and surged at Melvin.
"I'm ready for you!" He yelled and surged
forward only to be tackled and pummeled by all twenty
monks simultaneously. Serena looked back, realized
that some things never change and kept running smack
dab into hard object. She fell backward.
"What did I hit?" She muttered as she stood up
and realized she was standing in front of a very large
hydroelectric dam.
"What's this doing out in the middle of a grassy
plain?" she asked and looked around noticing that now
she was at the bottom of a large chasm with rocks on
both sides.
"Oh...well this makes more sense," she said.
Serena heard a rumbling noise.
"What's that?" She asked then it occurred to
her.
"OH NOOOOO!" She shouted and raced
away from the dam as a the doors on the dam opened
and let a tidal wave of water through. It caught up with
her and pushed her along as the water rushed towards
the city of Tokyo.
"This isn't going to be good," she said. The
water splashed into the city and flooded the streets.
Serena found herself landing on the roof of Crossroads
Junior High as water rushed around the first and second
floors. She looked around to see water covering
everything.
"THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT!" The familiar
voice of Raye shouted. Serena turned to see the dark
haired girl standing on the roof drenched. Her long hair
sagged from being waterlogged. Serena managed to
laugh.
"Laugh all you want! You and your dumb
dreams!" Raye said. "Wake up before you do any
more damage!"
That's just what Serena did. She opened her
eyes and realized she was back in her bed. She
moaned looked at the clock wearily and went back to
sleep.

At Crossroads Junior High.
Principal Oksua opened the door to his office
and flipped on the lights. To his complete shock, Miss
Haruna was sitting in his seat.
"Patricia? What are you doing?" Oksua asked.
"My my, Principal Oksua, you seem awfully
crabby this morning," Haruna said.
"I'm fine. What the devil are you doing in my
office?"
"Oh, that..well I wanted to keep your seat
warm," Haruna said dreamily.
"Are you all right Patricia?" Oksua asked
worriedly.
"I'm absolutely fine," Haruna said and walked
towards him. "Of course in a minute you won't be!"
she added and pointed her hand towards him. A
green blast of energy emerged from it and knocked him
to the ground unconscious. She hurried to the outer
office.
"Come quick! Principal Oksua's been hurt!"
she yelled. The various teachers and secretary's didn't
even question her honesty and rushed to the door.
Haruna blasted all of them and swung the door closed.
"Ah..that was easy," she said and walked down
the hall amongst the students.
They'll be next. She thought. But first...

"Lita, he's just a friend!" Amy was saying as the
two walked in the front door a minute later.
"Sure, Amy. Sure he is," Lita said with a huge
smile on her face.
"Keep it down okay?" Amy said.
"I don't know what you're worried about.
Having a boyfriend's nothing to be ashamed about.
Unless it's Melvin," Lita said and laughed.
"Lita, I'm just not comfortable talking about it."
"All right, all right. I'll see you later," Lita said
and headed for her classroom on the first floor. Amy
headed towards the stairs distraughtly.

Haruna walked into the partially full teacher's
lounge, where about half the school's faculty had
congregated.
"Hello Patricia," someone said.
"Hi," Haruna said and smiled before draining
the life energy out of all of them.

The alarm clock was ringing when Serena
finally rose from her bed.
"Get up Serena! You're late again!" Luna
yelled.
"Nonsense Luna. I set the alarm to give me
plenty of time," Serena muttered.
"it's been ringing for half an hour!" Luna said.
"Eep!" Serena yelled and leaped out of bed
only to trip and fall flat on her face.
"Why me?" she muttered.
"You must have a gift," Luna muttered.
"Don't bug me Luna, I was in the middle of a
great dream I needed my rest," Serena said as she
rapidly dressed herself.
"Don't give me that Serena, you've had to fight
the negaverse before and while I realize yesterday
wasn't one of your better days, you have to learn to
deal with it. Being a Sailor Scout is a tough job," Luna
said.
"I know that," Serena muttered as grabbed her
book bag and ran out the door.
"I wonder if she really does or not," Luna
muttered.

The bell rung as Serena ran in the school and
up the stairs. I'm going to be late again. She thought.
This is so pitiful. it makes no sense why this should
happen to me all the time. What did I do to deserve
this. How can I be expected to be a hero and be on
time to class? Besides, me and Darien were on a date
in my dream. Why'd I have to wake up? Jeez...it
wasn't like this back in the moon kingdom. What could
have possibly happened to make me ditzy Serena?
Maybe it's my parents fault. I'll have to investigate that
further.

As the bell was ringing, Haruna was emerging
from the teacher's lounge.
Time to pay the students a visit. She thought
and moved towards the nearest classroom.

"Hey, you new here?" Steve asked as he saw
an unfamilar boy entered the stall beside him.
"Me? No. I've been here a while," the dark
haired boy replied.
"Oh, haven't seen you. That's all," Steve said.

A few minutes earlier.
Lita sat in her chair and scanned the classroom.
All the students were talking to one another loudly.
Their teacher had yet to show and she was a bit
worried.
I don't like the look of this. Usually someone
shows up by now. Maybe we should send someone to
the office to see what's going on. Hmm..it's probably
nothing. She thought. No. Something's wrong. I can
sense it. She reconsidered.
She stood up as the door swung open and to
the class's surprise Miss Haruna stood there.
"Hello class," she said. "There's been a change
in plans. I'm going to teach you some things today,"
she finished and moved to the front of the room. The
students moved to take their seats, "First..." she trailed
off. To the students horror her eyes turned green and a
demonic grin formed on her face.
"Take this!" she yelled and unleashed an energy
attack at the group. Lita jumped out of the way and
moved to the back of the room.
"Hah! Missed one!" Haruna yelled and moved
to attack again. Lita picked up the nearest thing she
could find, a beaker of sulfur, and chucked it across the
room. it smashed onto the front desk raising a cloud of
yellow dust into the air. Haruna was stunned. Lita
didn't hesitate and raced for the door reaching the hall
in a few seconds.
No choice, I don't stand a chance unless I
transform. She pulled out her power stick.
"Jupiter Star Power!" she yelled and changed in
less than five seconds into her counterpart, Sailor
Jupiter. Haruna appeared in the doorway, only now
she had mutated into a green skinned creature with
larger muscles and several marks all over her body.
Her face had become narrower and taller, but her evil
smile still remained.
"Sailor Jupiter. What a surprise! Well this
makes things interesting!" she yelled. Jupiter held her
ground.
I have to warn the others she thought. But I
can't do that with this thing on my back. Haruna let out
a scream and a wave of energy flew out from her
mouth. Jupiter jumped to the right of it barely missing
the attack.
I have no maneuvering room in here. She
thought. Then again. Neither does she.
"Jupiter Thunderclap Crash!" Jupiter yelled
quickly. A circle of green lightening flew crackling from
her hands and hit the Haruna in the arm. The teacher
creature took two steps backwards.
"You'll pay for that!" She yelled and leapt
forward. Jupiter waited and then ducked jabbing her
knee into Haruna's gut. The creature winced, but
swung out with it's hand and knocked Jupiter into the
wall. The heroine moaned as she picked herself up off
of the ground.
"Hah!" Haruna yelled and attacked again.
Jupiter rolled out of the way and the teacher went flying
into a bulletin board. The shock loosened it from the
wall and it slammed into the creature's head. Jupiter
bolted for a stairway in the middle of the hall. When I
get there I can let off an attack to stun her. She
thought.
"Oh..no you don't!" Haruna yelled and let loose
another scream from her prone position. it hit the
fleeing Jupiter in the right leg. Jupiter fell to the ground
as the wound burned. Haruna extricated herself from
the remains of the bulletin board and advanced. The
Sailor Scout turned around to face the creature despite
the pain.
"Jupiter Thunder Clap Crash!" she yelled
unleashing a green disk of lightning at Haruna. The
creature couldn't react quickly enough and it was
knocked backwards again slamming into the pile of
board debris again.
"You're spunky," Haruna muttered.
Steve and the mysterious new kid emerged from the
bathroom at that moment only to see the battle. Jupiter
dragged herself towards the stairwell. Haruna stood
back up and moved towards her.
"That monster is going to hurt that girl!" Steve
said not noticing that the girl was Sailor Jupiter. "We
gotta do something."
"I'll take care of it," the other figure said.
"You?" Steve asked in surprise.
"Don't ask stupid questions. When I lead it
away get to Sailor Jupiter and help her anyway you
can," the boy said.
"You mean the girl right?"
The other boy sighed.
"Yes.." he muttered.
Steve ducked into the bathroom.
The boy slowly picked up a trash can from the
hall and threw it at the creature. The creature turned
and growled.
"Hmm....I'll take care of this nothing and then
deal with you Jupiter!" Haruna yelled and half ran, half
flew at the new opponent. The boy dashed down the
hallway and around the corner. Haruna followed.
Steve emerged from the bathroom and hurried
towards Jupiter who continued to crawl towards the
stairwell.
"Let me help you," Steve said.
"Uh....I've got to get to the next floor...warn
everyone," Jupiter said containing her feelings for Steve
and her disbelief that he would be in this position.
"Here," Steve said pulling her up and putting
her arm over his neck for support. "I'll get you upstairs,
or die trying."
"Thank you," Jupiter said dreamily.
"I never thought the sailor scouts existed."
"Well we're real Steve," Jupiter said.
"How did you know my name?"
"Oh...well...we Sailor Scouts know these
things."
"Whatever..let me get you up to the second
floor."
"Wait..Steve....you're quicker. Warn
everyone. Leave me under the stairs so Haruna doesn't
find me. The other students are more important then I
am."
"Are you sure?" Steve asked.
"Get up there quickly!" Jupiter yelled.
Steve hurried up the middle stairwell.

Serena slouched in her chair. She was bored.
"Where's Miss H?" She asked no one in
particular. "The only time she was ever late was that
one time," she said.
When the negaverse had zapped her. Serena
thought.
"Who knows what happened to her," Molly
replied.
"This is awfully strange though. Someone
better show up soon or I'm leaving," Serena said.
"Like you would even try it," Molly said.

"I would. There's no use me hanging around
here if nothing's going to happen," Serena said.
Why do I sense something is going to happen?
Amy thought as she watched from nearby. Something
bad.
"I wonder if a teacher can get into trouble for
being late," Serena said.
"Sure they can, I'm sure Principal Oksua
wouldn't be happy if that happened," Molly said.
"Wouldn't it be funny if Miss Haruna had to
serve a detention though?" Serena asked.
"That would be funny," Molly said and began to
giggle. Serena joined in.
"You look like something's troubling you,"
came the squeaky voice of Melvin as he stood next to
Amy's desk. She turned and looked at him.
"I'm fine. This is just strange, that's all," She
said.
"We should be used to strange stuff shouldn't
we?" Melvin asked. Amy giggled.
"Yes, I guess we should."
"Speaking of strange. You know that guy we
ran into yesterday..." Melvin began.
"Not more gossip Melvin," Amy muttered.
"No, listen. Just think about this. There were
some things that bugged me about what he said. First
of all, he knew it was a gossip, yet no one has never
seen him in the halls before. That's probably because
they wanted to keep him out of contact with other
students, but that's not the point. Even if he wasn't
crazy or anything,, how'd he know about me?
Furthermore, how'd he know my name and what I
looked like?"
"I don't know. Maybe someone's been
spreading gossip about you," Amy said with a slight
grin.
"You think so?" Melvin squeaked.
"You never..." Amy began to say when she was
interrupted by Steve's yelling.
"Everyone! Come on! There's trouble
downstairs. You gotta get out of here!" he yelled and
stopped in their doorway.
"You gotta get out of here!" He yelled.
"What do you mean?" Serena asked.
"There's a creature," Steve said.
"Are you kidding?" Melvin asked.
"This is some prank Steve," Someone said.
"I'm not kidding," Steve said.
"Yeah right," Melvin said.
"Don't scare me like that!" Serena yelled.
"Serena," Amy hissed.
"What?" Serena whispered back.
"There probably is a creature down there."
"Oh yeah."
"Come on."
"I'm not taking any chances," Serena said and
hurried outside. Amy following.
"At least two of you believe me," Steve said.
"Yeah..well.." Serena said.
"We'd better get out of here," Amy said.
"Head for the door call for help."
"I'll get help all right," Steve said and hurried for
the far stairwell.
"Come on Serena. The girl's bathroom, now,"
Amy whispered. The two hurried down the hall.

Haruna slid to a stop in the middle of a hallway.

"Dang it! Lost him!"
She then turned and wait back the way we
came.

Haruna walked onto the second floor from
another set of stairs and made her way down the
hallway, attacking every classroom she could as quietly
as possible. She approached her own classroom
gleefully. I've always wanted to do this. She thought.
"Hello class," Haruna said as she appeared in
the doorway sent a blast of energy towards them. The
class collapsed unconscious.
"That was too easy," Haruna said.

"Steve was right," Amy said peering through the
door. "Miss Haruna's a mutant creature and she's
draining everyone's energy.
"Just great, two days, two negaverse attacks,"
Serena muttered.
"We'd better transform, but we'll wait for her to
finish attacking everyone before we strike," Amy said.
"Why?" Serena asked.
"She won't expect it," Amy said.
"Oh."
"Mercury Star Power!"
"Moon Crystal Power!"

"Jupiter? Are you all right?" Steve asked
appearing behind the middle stairwell.
"My leg hurts bad, did you warn them?" Jupiter
asked.
"I did, but only two people listened. They're all
doomed," Steve said.
"Listen Steve, can you get me to the second
floor?"
"Yes, I will."
"Good, do that, then once you do get out of
here and call for help."
"All right, let's go," Steve said. He helped
Jupiter stand up, and supporting her with his body he
lead her up the stairs one step at a time.

"That was easy," Haruna said polishing off the
last class. She turned away and headed towards the
door.
"Mercury Ice Storm Blast!" came a cry from
behind her. A blue wave of energy hit Haruna in the
back and knocked her forward through the stair doors.
They happened to be closed and she hit hard and
howled in pain as a mist filled the corridor. She felt
chilled as Ice had formed around parts of her body.
She quickly blasted the ice off and turned around. The
mist cleared and she found Sailor Mercury and Sailor
Moon facing her.
"You!" Haruna yelled.
"Yes us!" The two girls replied.
"You won't get me!" Haruna yelled and ducked
into the stairwell.
"We've got to stop her!" Mercury yelled.
Mercury replied and she and Sailor Moon went
racing down the stairs. When they arrived on the first
floor the corridor was empty. They moved forward
slowly, waiting for any movement. The seconds passed
by as they moved down the hallway.
"Maybe she's gone," Sailor Moon said.
"Doubtful," Mercury said. A battle cry pierced
the air and Haruna leapt through a doorway and landed
right on Mercury knocking the blue haired heroine into
the wall.
"Oh no!" Sailor Moon yelled as the creature
turned towards her. She broke and ran down the
hallway. The Haruna creature pursued shooting blasts
of green energy all around her.
Drain her energy and then finish her off with my
scream. Haruna thought.
Sailor Moon tripped as she turned a corner and
skidded into a classroom landing behind an overturned
desk. The Haruna creature followed quickly. Gotta do
something. Sailor Moon thought.
"Hah!" Haruna yelled and screamed shooting a
blast at the desk. Sailor Moon rolled away as the desk
blew apart. She dived forward at the Haruna
creature's left leg and smashed into it knocking the
creature off balance and into several desks with a
crash. Haruna slowly picked herself up. Sailor Moon
made her scepter appear in her hands and she began to
yell.
"Moon Scepter Elimination!"
Haruna was quick though and she blasted the
scepter out of her arms.
"it's not going to be that easy!" Haruna yelled
and leapt at Sailor Moon.

"Where are they?" Jupiter asked in frustration
as she and Steve stood on the second floor.
"They must be back down on the first floor,"
Steve said.
"Dang it, come on," Jupiter said and hobbled
back to the stair well.
"Steve, thanks for the help, but this where we
separate. Get to one of the phones in the classrooms.
I'm going down to the first floor," She said.
"How, with your leg," Steve asked.
"Watch me," Jupiter said with a grin. She sat
on the stair rail and slid down slowly. At the landing
she carefully stepped onto her left leg. After another
trip on the railing she got to the first floor.
"Good luck Jupiter!" Steve yelled and searched
for a phone.

Sailor Moon dived into the hall and raced down
the corridor. The Haruna creature followed.
"Mercury Ice Storm Blast!" Mercury cried and
sent the attack at her teacher from her knees as she
was still weak. Haruna dodged it and continued her
pursuit of Sailor Moon. Mercury staggered up and
moved to follow.
"Woah...did I get you too?" Jupiter asked
hobbling up.
"In a way yes..that's a bad burn on your leg,"
Mercury said.
"I'll heal...Sailor Moon's in deep isn't she?"
"Yes, come on," Mercury said supporting
Jupiter with her arm.

"Come on Sailor Moon, it's over for you,"
Haruna said as she backed Sailor Moon into a corner.
"Moon Tiara Magic," The heroine yelled pulling
her tiara off her head and flinging it quickly unleashing
her newly regained power. Haruna was so surprised
that she didn't duck and the attack hit her right in the
chest. She yelled in pain. Sailor Moon took her
opportunity and kicked her teacher right in the head
with a jumping karate kick she had practiced several
times.
Gotta get my scepter. She thought and ran
back down the hall.
Haruna winced and followed.
"I'll get you!" she yelled.
"Not likely!" Mercury and Jupiter yelled
appearing from behind a corner between Sailor Moon
and the creature.
"Jupiter Thunderclap crash!" Jupiter yelled.
The attack hit Haruna straight on and knocked the
teacher back ten feet. She skidded along the floor and
slowly got up.
"Mercury Ice Storm Blast!" Mercury cried.
This attack worked well and the Haruna creature was
frozen solid by an icy wave. Sailor Moon hurried up
with her scepter.
"This is interesting isn't it?" She said.
"Downright Ironic if you ask me," Mercury
said.
"Just ice her," Jupiter said.
"Moon Scepter Elimination!" Sailor moon
yelled. as she aimed at the creature. White light
surrounded it and it cried out as the negaverse part of it
was purged. Soon only the unconscious form of the
human Miss Haruna was left lying on the floor.
"I did it, whew that was close," Sailor Moon
said.
"Are you all right?" Mercury said staggering up.
"I'm okay. How about you guys?"
"Ehh..I've been better," Jupiter said.
"We'd better get back to our normal forms
before everyone starts waking up and get you to a
hospital Jupiter," Mercury said.
Sirens filled the air as the numerous emergency
vehicles, alerted by Steve, raced to the school.

The two came in view of the school and were
surprised to see the flashing lights of all the police cars
and various other vehicles that had since pulled up. A
huge crowd of students and other curious onlookers
had gathered around.
"Hmm...I see my friends I've gotta check on
them!" Mina yelled and ran towards the group. Mike
shrugged and searched for anyone he knew. Mina
immediately headed to where Amy and Serena were
standing. Lita was sitting down nearby, a doctor was
looking at her leg.
"What happened?" Mina asked. The two girls
were careful of their answers because of the doctor
standing there.
"Some creature thing attacked everybody,"
Serena said.
"Fortunately the Sailor Scouts showed up, but
Lita here got burned." Amy said.
"Mina, it was terrible," Serena said.
"Hey, did you say the Sailor Scouts were here?
the doctor asked.
"Sure," Serena said. "Ain't they great?" she
added looking for praise. The other girls just sighed at
Serena's arrogance.
"Great? From what I hear they're greater than
great," Mike said and the girls all blushed.
"Well, Lita, this is only a minor injury, and I still
don't know what exactly caused it, but I can give you
something to take away the pain and you should be
back on your feet in a few days," the doctor said.
"We'll have to take you into the hospital though."
"Sure," Lita said. The doctor and Lita departed
in an ambulance, leaving the others to talk amongst
themselves. In the meantime Raye had arrived.
"Woah? Looks like someone trashed the
place," she said.
"We don't know who I was, but they were
mean. Luckily those brave and beautiful Sailor Scouts
showed up and stopped it," Serena said.
"Can it Serena," Raye snapped realizing exactly
what Serena was up to.

"You're kidding," Rick said as he, Mike, and
Steve sat together.
"No, no. it was true," Steve replied. "I helped
Sailor Jupiter out. She had been hit in her leg.
Everyone else had been knocked out, so I had to help
out."
"You're not the man come on," Mike said.
"I'm telling the truth," Steve said.
"Sure you are..we believe you," Mike and Rick
said condescending.

"Failure!" Coardite yelled in anger. "That
idiotic minion I sent to possess the school teacher failed
such an easy assignment. All it had to do was knock
out all those students and the we would have not only
gained the energy, but capture the Sailor Scouts as
well. How hard could that have been! Well, I'll just
come up with a better plan. That's all."

Lita lay in the hospital bed and starred out the
window at the setting sun.
it's beautiful. She thought. Then her mind
wandered onto another subject of interest. Steve
helped me today. Without him we might not have won.
What a great guy. I really have to get to know him
better. As soon as I get out of here maybe I'll get the
chance.
