Chapter 10: The wish part 2

Luna is on a stretcher being rushed into the hospital. The five scouts are running along
side.

"Please hold on Luna." Serena says crying.

They arrive at the emergency room doors and the people hold the girls back.

"I'm sorry but you will have to wait in the waiting room." The doctor says.

"No! Luna!" Serena says crying.

"We will tell you her condition as soon as we know." The doctor says.

The door swings shut and the scouts are left in shock.

"I can't believe this is happening. Who could of done this to her?" Mina asks.

They all sit down and after a half an hour, the doctor comes in.

"She is still alive but in critical condition. I am afraid that she was poisoned and no
known antidote seems to help." The doctor says solemnly.

Artemis is walking through town. He bumps into another person.

"Hey watch were you are going buddy." A man says angrily.

But when he sees Artemis's claws, he backs away in fear. The humanoid woman stops
his run.

"Do you have the crystal?" The woman asks.

Artemis answers by throwing sharp nails at her, which she dodges.

"What? How dare you attack me." The woman says.

When she gets looks back she sees that Artemis has gotten away.

"This is Arta. We have a rogue host. If you find it, terminate it." Arta says.

She growls and disappears. Meanwhile back at the hospital the scouts are brought out of
their contemplation by the doctor.

"She has gained consciousness. You can visit her but not for long. She needs to rest if she
is to live long enough to hopefully find the cure." The doctor says.

The girls all rush into the room and stand around Luna. When Luna sees them she smiles
weakly.

"Don't listen to what the doctor says. I am fine." Luna says jokingly.

"Who did this to you?" Mina asks.

Luna frowns.

"It was Artemis. He got under the control of one of those creatures. His nails become
claws and he slashed my chest." Luna responds.

"Artemis. No." Mina says sadly.

"We need to find the antidote to the poison that is killing you. I don't think that the
doctors will be able to find it. I have a feeling that the poison is not from this world."
Ami says.

"But we will find a way to save you. I promise." Serena says tearing up.

"I know you will. This is nothing compared to what you girls have been through." Luna
says.

She tries to smile but groans and coughs. The doctor comes in.

"I am afraid that she needs her rest now. But first we are gonna take a blood sample and
run that through the toxicology database." The doctor says.

The girls reluctantly leave the hospital and return home.

"I just thought of something. Luna will return to being a cat in less than 12 hours. Who
knows what will happen to her then? Poisons can kill cats a lot faster than humans." Mina
says worried.

"I don't know if she will even live to the end of the wish." Serena says.

"Don't you dare talk that way Serena. You know as well as I do that she will be okay."
Mina says.

The two hosts return home and see the girls' solemn expressions.

"What's going on? Where's Luna and Artemis?" John asks.

The girls tell of what happen and John and wife gasp.

"I used to be a toxicologist. I found out about a lot of unknown rare antidotes. I may be
able to help." John says putting his coat on.

He rushes out before Ami can tell him that it probably won't do any good.

"Who knows. Maybe an earthly cure will work after all. It's our only hope right now."
Lita says.

Mina smacks herself in the head.

"Jeez are we muddleheaded or what. We forgot that Artemis is out there under the control
of those things. We need to find him and help him." Mina says.

They all exit the house and decide to split up. Ami approaches a cop car and decides to
ask the cop.

"Can I help you miss?" The cop asks.

"Yeah I am looking for someone. He is tall and has white hair." Ami says.

The cop shakes his head. Suddenly the radio comes to life.

"Calling all cars. Be on the lookout for an assault suspect. The suspect is about 5'10"
with white hair and clean-. Approach with caution." The voice says.

"That's him I bet." Ami says.

"Sounds like you aren't the only one that wants him." The cop says.

Suddenly a man jumps from out of nowhere onto the cop car. It's Artemis and he
scratches the windshield then jumps away.

"That's him." Ami yells.

"Get away from the car mam. I will deal with him." The cop yells.

He says something into the radio and steps out with his gun drawn. Meanwhile Artemis is
standing in an alley looking around wildly.

"Freeze police. You are under arrest for suspicion of assault." The cop says.

Artemis spins around and reaches out his hand. The cop fires but the bullet is bent aside
and hits the wall. Suddenly a barrage of nails flies at the police officer.

"No!" Ami yells.

She shoves the cop aside and the nails barely miss her. They embed themselves in a wall.
Suddenly the wall explodes and the rubble lands on top of Ami and the cop. Artemis uses
this to get away.

"You interfered with an arrest." The cop says sternly.

"I saved you. Those nails could have seriously hurt you." Ami says.

"Okay. I will let you off this time. I need to get going and find him again." The cop says.

The cop gets in the car.

"Stay out of my way." The cop says sternly.

The car speeds away and Ami wonders what to do next. She returns home to think and
the phone rings.

"This is Ami." She says into the phone.

"This is John. I am afraid that Luna has taken a turn for the worse. The doctors only give
her 3 more hours. She isn't even awake anymore." John rushes.

"Oh god." Ami says.

Ami takes out her communicator.

"This is Ami. Luna only has 3 hours to live. We need to find Artemis and an antidote
now." Ami yells.

The others are shocked but nod. Ami screams as the wall to the house explodes in and
Artemis leaps inside.

"This is Ami. Artemis is…" Ami starts to say.

Artemis backhands her and knocks her out. He rushes inside the bedroom and takes the
crystal. When the others arrive they find Ami just waking up. Ami rushes into the room
and finds the crystal gone.

"He got the crystal." She says rushing back into the living room.

They all rush outside to look around.

"Artemis. Where are you?" Mina yells.

"Right here." A man's voice says.

The scouts spin around to see Sailor Aries holding the crystal. Artemis is standing next to
him.

"I have what I came for. Finish them." Sailor Aries says laughing.

All the scouts transform. Artemis fires more nails that pin Sailor Moon against the wall.

"Combined sailor attack." Jupiter and Ami yell.

"Jupiter lightening bolt shock." Sailor Jupiter yells.

"Mercury ice spear strike." Ami yells.

The lightening electrifies the spears and pierces Artemis as well as shocks him. He
slumps to the ground.

"Do it Sailor moon." Ami yells.

"Lion heart courage attack." Sailor moon yells.

The beam of energy envelops Artemis and the creature falls out. Artemis wakes up and
looks around confused. The scouts tell him what he did and he rushes to the hospital.

"Sir you can't go in there." The nurse says.

Artemis pushes her aside. He rushes into Luna's room and startles the Doctor's in there.

"Hey you can't be in here. This woman is in critical condition." The doctor yells.

"I can save her. I know I can." Artemis says.

The doctors look at each other.

"Let him. She's a hopeless case I am afraid." John says.

Artemis goes up to Luna and puts his hands onto hers.

"I'm sorry." Artemis says.

Suddenly both Artemis and Luna glow with energy. Luna's skin turns a more healthy
tone again.

"It's impossible. Her readings are returning to normal." The doctor says.

Luna opens up her eyes and smiles when she sees Artemis.

"Oh thank god." Artemis says hugging Luna.

"Okay you need to leave now. We will do all we can from here on." The doctor says.

Artemis returns to the lobby and waits with the girls. After about an hour the doctor
comes out with a confused look on his face.

"She is doing fine. But we did a blood test and there is no trace of the poison. No trace of
anything that has to do with it including an antidote." The doctor says.

"Let's just call it a beautiful miracle." Artemis says smiling.

As nightfalls, Luna is admitted out and they all return home. Luna and Artemis sit
together uneasy.

"About what happened." Artemis says.

"It's okay. I know you were under the control of those creatures." Luna says.

"No. About the other thing." Artemis says.

"Oh yes that." Luna says looking down.

"I meant what I said." Artemis says.

Luna blushes.

"I love you too. But we have a mission.." Luna says.

"Forget the mission. For the last few hours we have as humans at least." Artemis says.

Luna turns her head but Artemis turns it towards him. They embrace and kiss each other.
