Chapter 15

                It Has Begun
                  Trust Me

  It took a lot of explaining to get Serena's parents to calm down. I was
also lying through my teeth the whole time.
'My Uncle became very sick this week and I had to go see him. We were
planing to leave on Monday, after the concert we set up for Sunday night.
But Friday night he became worse and it looked like he would die. I guess
I freaked out and just called Serena on impulse. She came right over and
came with us. She obviously rushed out without telling you.' I said the
entire thing to Mr. and Mrs. Tsukino faces. The 'Look me in the eye and
tell me that' does not work with me. Serena never said a thing.

"Where were you all this time?" asked Mr. Tsukino. "Kyoto" I said.
Some more false information, a little fancy foot work and Serena could
stay over at my place for the night. "We'll see you tomorrow Serena."
said Mrs. Tuskino. Serena nodded and hugged her Parents and Brother,
much to his surprise, good-bye.

 The others stayed on the stage fixing things so they could be
teleported straight back to the Studio in the manor when everything was
clear. The Inner Scouts and Darien stayed up in their seats, not daring
to come down. Although Small Lady was practically jumping up and down.
Luna looked about the same.

  Serena parents left to go home. Most of the people had left already,
save for a few couples walking about the park. We would have to pull
down the curtain when we teleported the equipment back to the manor just
to be safe. Alania walk up next to me and looked at the Inner Scouts
sitting in the risers. "How do you think they will react." she asked both
of us. Serena looked up. "Raye will be the most difficult to manage,
Lita will be the most likely to fight, Amy will want to talk your ear
off, and Mina is like me; she wont move unless we do." she said. I nodded.

Turning back I whistled sharply. Everyone on the stage look up, drop
what they were doing, and jumped off the stage to us. The Inner Scouts
and Darien looked at us too. Seeing that we were lining up they started
to come down the stairs. We stood facing each other, a gap of about
ten feet between us. The Inner Scout were in the order of the planets,
with Darien in his place and Small Lady wedged between him and Raye.
I smiled lightly at the arrangement. Serena was to my right and Alania to
my left. Behind us the others were in a wide V shape. Earth Guard the
right line and the Outer Scout standing in front of the Shrio Kage on
the left, with us in the middle of the shape.

For a long time no one said a thing. The Inner's looked over all of us.
They were most tense about the Earth Guard. I had hoped that Serena
would have been able to give them their memories of the Earth Guard,
the real Earth Guard. That's why Serena's eyes glowed gold when each
of the Scout were sung to. It didn't look like it work very well.
Darien's eyes never left Serena. Serena returned the gaze for some time
before pulling her eyes down to look at her daughter. Small Lady smiled
at her Mother. Serena returned the smile brightly, bent down, and held
out her arms to Small Lady. Small Lady made a happy sound and rushed
forward. Raye and Darien made a grab for the small girl but missed
entirely. Small Lady ran into Serena's arms. Serena swung the girl up
into the air and than hugged her tightly. "Mommy! Mommy!" Small Lady
cried. Serena kissed her on the for head, making her moon insignia light
up.

  "Mommy?!?!" chocked out Darien. The others looked stunned. Luna jumped
into the gap between us. "Luna stop!" cried Artemis. Luna payed no heed.
She stop and stared at Serena and Small Lady. Serena looked back at the
cat with an intense look that others would not be able to meet for long.
Luna's stare was steady with Serena's. "Serenity?" whispered the cat.
Serena smiled and closed her eyes. The moon insignia lit up brightly.
"Serenity!!!" yelled Luna as she leaped into Serena's arms. Serena
caught her with her free hand and hugged her too. Luna's purr sounded
wonderful to her ears. Slowly the moon sign on Serena's head faded.

  I watch the display of the three before I saw movement out of the
corner of my eye. Raye had taken a few steps forward and was reaching for
Serena, probably to pull her away from us so they could transform and
attache. "There is no reason to do that Mars, Serena is in no danger
with us." I said to her. Raye faltered than stepped back with a shocked
look on her face. "Ok Serena, come over here. Get away from them." said
Lita. She took at step forward and reach out her hand. I raised my eye
brow and sighed. Luna jumped to the ground and Small Lady slid down
Serena's hip to stand next to her. Serena had an annoyed look on her
face. "Stop it all of you." she said. Lita stopped but than continued
toward Serena with Raye next to her. "I don't know what they did to
you Serena, but we can fix it." said Raye in a soft voice. Alania sighed
and leaned against me. "This is going to take some time." she whispered.
I nodded and looked to the others. Darien was still standing in the same
spot, paying no attention to us at all since Small Lady called Serena
Mommy. Amy stood quite with her computer out and typing away.
But Mina stood looking just past Serena, at the others behind us.
I turned back and followed her gaze. She was staring at Mike, or Malachite
as she would know him. What was even better was that Mike was staring
right back. <Of course!> I thought. <The Guardian of Love should be the
easiest to remember about the Earth Guard.>

 I nudged Serena out of her conversation with Raye and Lita. She looked
at me. I slid my eyes over to Mina and nodded at her. Serena looked at
her and turned around to look behind us. A slow smile spread across her
face as she realized that Mina remember about her love but didn't know
which Malachite she was looking at. The Enemy or the Love? Serena
turned back. "Mina" she called. Mina eyes zipped over to her. Serena
smiled at her. "Its ok Mina, its him." From a stand still Mina raced
across Raye's and Lita's path and jumped into Mike arms with a cry of
joy. The world seemed to stop as Mike and Mina kissed for the first time
in a thousand years.

  Silence fell upon the rest of the group. Raye sucked in a breath sharply.
"Mina, what are you doing!?!?!" she yelled. "Those are the Nega Verse
Generals!!!!" yelled Lita. Mike set Mina on the ground with his arms
around her. "You mean you don't remember them." Mina asked. "It seemed
that you being the Guardian of Love has made you more sensitive. You
are the only one who remembers." I said. Mina blinked at me. "And you are?"
she asked. I bowed my head very lightly. "Sailor Star at your service.
You may call me Reona." I told her. "Are you from the...." asked Amy
I turned to look at her. "Silver Millennium?" She nodded. "Yes I am. But
you did not meet me in that time. Only Serenity and Alania knew of me
and met me in that time, Queens too." Amy typed into her computer as I
was talking. "You wont find any record of me." I told her. She looked
up. "How do you know?" "Because its one of the things that are locked
from you." Amy looked shocked beyond words. "What do you mean 'one of
the things'." asked Raye. They turned to look at the blue haired girl
for the answer. But Amy did something odd for her, she stuttered.
"I...I..uh..." It looked like she couldn't breath. "Although Amy has
never told us she has found gaps in the information in the Mercurian
Computer." said Serena next to me. "Is this true?" asked Mina. Amy's
shoulder slumped in defeat. "Yes" she whispered. They gasped. "You never
told us? What if your calculations were wrong in a fight? We could have
been killed!" said Lita. Amy cringed and took a step back.
"No" said Serena. She walked infront of Amy, like to protect her.
"The information locked in her computer was things like History, Profiles
of us, and Planet descriptions. None of this would effect the calculations
she makes when in a fight." Serena voice had a commanding tone to it.

 Everyone was shocked. Not by the news about the computer but the
change in Serena. "What happened to you, Serena?" whispered Raye.
Serena straightened and swept her eyes over everyone, looking at each.
She held Darien eyes the longest. She looked at me before she said any-
thing but could not get anything from my stone face. She let her eyes
travel up to the sky and the full moon. "I grew up. I had to." she says.
Darien blinks at this, his first movement for a while. He mouths her
name and reaches out a hand for her. With smooth steps Serena moves away
from his touch and back over to my side. "You and I need to talk, later."
she says. Small Lady raps her arms around Serena's leg and Serena lays her
hand gently on Small Lady's head. Darien looks between the two girls.
He looks so confused and alone, like he knows he is truly to be there
too. Serena gives him a small smile.

  Suddenly a feeling shoots through me. I close my eyes and shake my
head to clear it. Taking a breath I look over at Serena and Alania.
They feel it too. "Serena?" asks Raye. "Wha..." At that point Serena
turns and looks at the sky. After a second she raises her arms so it is
level. "Wha are you doing?" asked Lita. A dark shape appears in the
sky and flies toward Serena. Flapping his wings back Apollo rests lightly
on her arms. "What going on, Apollo?" I ask the bird. Apollo is gasping
for air. "Meadow......Portal....Big!....Monster!!!!" He gets out.
Right then we hear running foot step. Travis or should I say Sun Knight
since he is transformed pushed through a gap and rushed up to us.
He sucks in a breath and blurts out to us. "There's a portal in the
meadow with a Big! Monster!!" "I just said that!!!" yells Apollo.
Sun Knight blinks at his adviser. "Oh" I smile at the two and Serena
shacks her head with a sigh.

 The ear rings of all the sailors begin to make soft alarm sounds as
does the watches the guys wear. "I'll get it." I sigh. Reaching up to
my right ear ring I lightly tap it. Light extends to form a headphone
piece. "Your to late, Bit." I say. The computer's digital voice comes
over. "Than get going!!!" I laugh. "As You Wish....Ok you two led the
way." I wave my hand at Apollo and Sun Knight. They nod and turn to go
back the way they came. When we pass the stage I stop and whistle again.
Three cats, minis Obsidian, and one wolf jumps off from behind the
stage curtain. Onyx and Eclipse come over to us and Corren takes up
running behind his charge, Alex or Uranus. Jade hesitates for a moment
before taking a place besides Darien. Darien doesn't notice.

  We make our way up the large hill that is used as a sled hill in the
winter. When we reach the rise we stop short. Alania bumps into me from
behind. "Gomen" she whispers. Looking over my shoulder she gasps.
Coming from a large black portal at the bottom of the meadow are rows
of monsters, Yoma or Rath I can not tell. Toris is there, barking out
orders in their shrill language so much that our ears hurt. But this
is nothing. We have seen this all before. What amazes us is the huge..
thing..standing to the left of the portal. "Oh My God." I whisper.
"Down!!" I order. Everybody drops to the ground, some pulling down the
Inner Scout and Darien. To our right my brother Star Knight and my love
Xzafer Knight run over to us from the tree line. "I was wondering when
you would get here." whispered Xzafer Knight. "I see we have company."
says Star Knight looking at the Scouts and Darien being held down.

  I grab the front of my Brother's uniform and pull him to my face.
"WHAT IS THAT?!?!?!" I say harshly pointing to the monster in the clearing.
He grabs my wrist and tries to pull my hands away. "I don't know, it
come out of the portal like everything else." he said. I let go of him
and he falls backward. I look into the meadow again.
"Shimatta, que Universe disage Je/this Universe hates Me." I say in my
own language. Serena smiles next to me. "It does not." she says.
Our happy monster is two story building big and looks like an Octopus.
Its a sick green color. I'm not worried about how it looks, I'm worried
about what powers it has. All those arms are not going to be fun to
dodge either. I grind my teeth together in anger. I knew they were
planning something big when they didn't attache for a while.
"Henshin Yo!" I order. Serena stop enough to tell the others what to
do.

   "Star Power!" "Moon Power!" "Light Power!" we yell. My transform
is different, it has turned into what Serena did. Silver ribbons rap
around my body than a bright flash blinds everything and my sailor fuku
is solid. I have no tiara and my silver star insignia is on my for head.
Alania's changes in the same way too. White ribbons incase her, she has
no tiara and her four point light burst shows. She still has the purple
fuku on, she hasn't taken her Guardian test yet. The Outer Scouts
transform into their fukus. Earth Guard uniforms are gray with lining
of the color of the scout they are paired with. The Shiro Kage are white
with gold moon clips, also accented with the color of their loves.
The Inner Scout transform and Darien turns into Tuxedo Mask.

  Our little light show didn't go unnoticed. Toris turned and looked at
the crest of the hill. Seeing the many lights it didn't take him long
to figure it was us again. He said something to the monsters around him
in his harsh language. A group of half a dozen separated and began to
march toward us. I raised my hand and my staff appeared. "Do it hard and
do it fast. Watch yourself out there. Stay in twos if you can help it.
Jade and Apollo stay here with the Inner Scouts and Tuxedo Mask." I ordered.
Jade sat back on the ground and Apollo settled next to him since there
were no trees. "No way!!" said Mars. "We're coming too." says Jupiter.
"Its our fight too." says Venus. Mercury looks like she wants to argue
the point also. "That's an order." says Sailor Moon. "All of you."
The last part was to Tuxedo Mask. "This is not your fight, not yet."
I say. "We don't have time to discuss this guys." says Alania. I look
down the hill. The line of monster are coming towards us. I take a step
forward and my foot slides on the wet grass. I right myself and smile as
an idea floats into my head. I look at Sailor Moon and Light. They smile
back. Great minds think alike. "How about it girls?" I ask. They call
upon their staffs and nod. "Sailor Star" warns Xzafer Knight. I smile
at him and he groans.

  We push off the hill and begin to slid down it on our feet, much like
someone on skates would. Bending our knees we race down the hill and
toward the on coming monsters. I hear yells and screams coming from the
top of the hill, most likely from the Inner Scouts and Darien. Resting
our right hand under our staffs we point the tip of the insignias to the
ground. The clear crystals begin to glow. "Star Power Lights!"
"Moon Power Lights!" "Light Power Lights!" we yell. Silver, gold, and
white power laces out like lightning across the ground in front of us.
When the streams of light reach the monsters they explode into dust,
like every other. <They where Yoma> I think. I shield my eyes with a
gloved hand when I slid through the dust in the air. The others at the
top, minis the Inner Scout and Tuxedo Mask, slid down after us.

Xzafer Knight slides to a stop next to me. "The was a foolish thing."
he says. I cough and shake the dust out of my hair. "It worked, didn't it."
I said. I waved a hand in front of me and coughed again.
"Again, I say we do not have time to discuss this." says Sailor Light
next to Star Knight. I look up to the top of the hill. The Inner Scout
and Tux are still there with Jade and Apollo but they don't look to
happy about it. Fur brushes against me and I look down. Onyx settles
next to me. <That reminds me> I look at Luna, who is sitting on the
top of the hill next to Artemis. She looks torn between staying or
joining the fight with Sailor Moon, like Onyx and Eclipse do. I move to
the right and catch her eyes. I nod gentle to her. She takes a step
forward but Artemis stops her. "Where do you think your going Luna."
he asks. "Where I belong." she answers. She kiss him. Artemis is stunned
and Luna takes the time. Leaping off she slides down the hill to Sailor
Moon. At the bottom she jumps up onto her shoulder. Sailor Moon reaches
a gloved hand and pets Luna.
"Luna!!!" yells Artemis. He start to go after her but Jade steps on
his tail. He is pulled back to the ground. "Let me go Dog!" Artemis yells.
"Wolf and No." says Jade calmly. Artemis looks up with frustrated and
worried blue eyes. "YOU LET LUNA GO!!!" he yells. "Luna is different,
she is part of this." Jade says with a nod down the hill.

  Artemis begins to struggle instead of talking and I turn away. Sailor
Moon sets Luna on the ground. Sailor Moon places her hand over the
Moon Crystal. A flash of gold and a long cord appears in her hands.
Sailor Moon shows the cord to Luna. "Are you sure Luna?" she asks.
"Yes" answers the cat. Sailor Moon open her hand to show a gold crescent
moon gem attached to the gold cord. She reaches around and ties the
cord around Luna's neck. Its really a collar, like the ones Onyx and
Eclipse wear. Gold light incases Luna. Artemis yells again. When the
light around Luna dies you see a copy of Onyx only with a crescent moon
insignia, not a star. Luna opens her red eyes and blinks. "Daijoubu? Luna?"
asks Sailor Moon. Luna stretches. "Hai Daijoubu Sailor Moon." she says.
"Its good to be back." she sighs.
"Once more, I say we do not have time to discuss this." says an irritated
Sailor Light. "Okay" I say. "Silence Grave Surprise!" "World Shaking!"
"Deep Submerge!" "Dead Scream!" yell the Outer Scouts. Several holes show
in the line of monsters before us.

 A ball of yellow energy explodes against the hill besides us. Dirt
flies into the air. Several of us are thrown to the right and I land hard
on my side. I cover my head as clump of earth fall to the ground.
Pushing myself to me knees I look around. Sailor Moon picks grass out
of her hair a few feet away from me, Luna by her side. Onyx pick herself
up off the ground. Another energy ball collides with the hill. Xzafer
Knight land next to me and covers me with his cape. Sun Knight covers
his sister Sailor Moon. "Where is that coming from!!!!" I scream into
the air. "Deep Submerge!" yells Neptune. Her attache puts another hole
in the line. "It coming from the large Rath." she screams at me.
"A fish can do that!" I whisper harshly. The Earth Guard rushes forward
with swords, throwing energy attaches much like the Inners Scouts do.
I stand with Xzafer Knight. "Aim at the Rath!!" I order.
"Dead Scream!" "World Shaking!" race toward the monster. They hit some
of the arms and the Rath stagers back. But not for long. The Rath
swings its arm sand tries to hit Pluto and Uranus. The two scout jump
around the many arms and escape. Saturn throws her attache at the
approaching monsters. "Where are they all coming from?!" yells Lynx/Drake
as he pulls Saturn away from an attache made by a monster she missed.
They run over to us and Lynx sets Saturn down. Pluto and Kodiak/Logan
race over to us also.(Kodiak mean Bear) "We've got to stop the flow of
Raths and Yomas." says Pluto as she point over to the portal. I nod.
"You guys go tell the others to aim for Toris and that fish thing before
it hurts on of us." I says. They nod and run off.

  I tap my ear ring and the head phone piece curves around.
"Bit, can you close that portal by yourself or is it magic?" I ask.
"I can try." the Computer says. "Don't try, Do!" I scream into the
phone as I jump away from an attache of one of the monsters. Turning in
the air I throw a Star Scaber at it.(you remember, those ninja stars.
the ones where we put our hand in front of our fuku and they appear in
our hands. that's what I will call them. Star, Moon, or Light Scaber.)
Just before it hits I yell "Crystal Shards!" The scaber splits into many
sharp pieces and embeds in the monster. The monster turns to dust like
all the others. I smile and turn around. "Ahhhhhhh!!" One of the arms
of the large fish Rath rap around me waist and lift me up into the air.
"Sailor Star!!!" yells Xzafer Knight. He jumps up into the air and tries
to reach me but he falls way short. My staff falls to the ground and
the end sticks into the dirt so the insignia in the air. Onyx make
a jump but lands hard on the ground in a miss. "Sailor Moon!!" yells
Sun Knight. I twist to look behind me. Sailor Moon is lifted into the
air with one arm pined to her side. The Rath make a grab for Sailor
Light but she dodges it. She runs out of the Rath reaching distance.

  I reach for my dagger. I try to pull it from its hidden place in the
lining of my skirt but its pined to me by the Rath's arm. I wiggle and
twist it free. I jab it into the arm of the monster. The Rath makes a
pain filled yell and loosens its grip on me. I slip through its hold and
begin to free fall in the air. I close my eyes and wait for the hard
landing. Xzafer Knight runs, jump up and catches me. I sigh with relive.
My dagger appears in my hand and I place it back. Sailor Moon is lifted
higher in the air. Her arm is pined to her side so she can't get to her
dagger. Suddenly she gets an idea. With her free hand she reach up and
takes one of her hair jewels off. Pressing a small button a sharp
blade pops out. She runs the blade across the skin of the arm and the
Rath lets her go with another yell. Only then do we see how high she
really is. "Call MoonBeam!!" I scream out. Sailor Moon rights herself so
she is falling feet first. "MoonBeam Come!!" she calls. Bright gold lights
flash under her and form the Pegasus MoonBeam. The horse rears in the
air and with one flap of the wings flies away from the monsters arms.
Sailor Moon grabs the reins and pulls back. Twisting around she looks
back at the monster while MoonBeam floats in the air. Sailor Moon brings
MoonBeam down to the ground and hops off. She runs toward us.

  "What are we going to do!?" she asks me. Sailor Light jogs up to us
with the cats. "So now what?" asks Onyx. Luna rubs up against Sailor Moon
and Moon pets her. I look around the field. The Outer Scout are calling
out attache left and right to help the Shiro Kage in fight with their
sword. The Earth Guard are fighting in a small circle back to back.
Everyone is injured. Small cuts and gashes from blades. Bruises from falls.
And we're all tired. I look up at the large Rath. Its arms are fling
all over the place and the we have to keep a look out or we get hit with
them. I think that's what the plan was, to many to fight. I take in a
deep breath. "We'll never beat them without doing something big and
getting half of us killed." I look at them. "I think we need to do a
Crisis Attache." They nod. Turning back all three of us whistle sharply.
Everyone begins to back off. They run up the hill but stop half way up
and look back. "Let go!!" yells Star Knight to us. I look down.
"You three go." I say to the cats with a nod up the hill. Slowly the
begin to go, when they reach the bottom of the hill they start to run
up.

   The line of monster begin to march forward again. We jogs out to
meet them. We can hear the yells and calls of the others but pay no
heed. A few yards from the monsters we stop and stand in a small circle
facing out. We reach behind and hold the hand of the other persons.
We look at the sky and call "Star!" "Moon!" "Light!" A strong wind pick
up. Our hair whips around. We're lifted off the ground. Our staff
float before us spinning a little. A column of light surround each of
us in our own color. We close our eyes. The crystals on our fukus begin
to glow and you can hear a loud humming. Our insignia flash and glow
brightly. When we open our eyes they are in our own color silver, gold,
and white. The line of monster start to go back. Toris yells out
orders and the large Rath swings his arms at you but the wind hits
them back. "Crisis Strike!!!!!!!!!" we yell together. The three columns
of light race out and swallow everything. The others on the hill watch
as light fades us out.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So, what do you think? I think the fight scene came out well, a little
sketchy in the middle but okay. Yes, Luna does remember everything
about the Silver M. She was there when I was training Serenity on the
Moon as was Eclipse when I trained Alania so they know who I am. But
Artemis, any of the Scouts, and Guard don't know who I am and have just
meet me for this. It took time for them to trust me, as it will for
the Inners. I will with time get Serena and Travis back together as a
family with the Tsukinos. Darien and Serena will get back. But I'm
working on the fly now. I never though the story out this far, Silly Me.
Next time:   Teachings..........I explain myself to the Inners and we
start getting used to the New Serena.

Thanks.
