Sailor Moon: Dark Stars
Chapter 3
Anna Kendon and Super Sailor Sirius continued to run down the empty back sidewalk of the downtown New York City block, careful to stay out of view of any people. Sirius suddenly stopped, grabbed Anna's hand, and slipped into a empty alleyway behind a large building. Both girls were breathing hard and sweating from the high speed running.
"I guess there's no sense in staying like this, is there?" the senshi smiled tiredly. Anna looked at her cousin for a moment and was about to say something, but then had to look away from the bright light as Sirius closed her eyes and concentrated for a moment. When the bright violet light dissipated, she was back in her black denim jumpsuit with a white laced shirt underneath.
"Oh boy! Something tells me that I'm NOT going to get used to that, no matter how many times I see it!" breathed out Anna as she blinked her eyes in confusion. The taller girl swayed a second later as she began to feel dizzy from the shock she had in the restaurant. She slumped against the building wall with a soft sigh.
"Oh no! Anna, are you alright?" Tanya cried in concern. Anna nodded her dark head, then steadied herself with Tanya's help.
"Come on, let's just get you home." Tanya turned to her golden mentor. "Marco, since your carrier was destroyed with everything else I brought, there's no point in going back to that restaurant. Stay here with Anna while I go grab a cab, alright?"
"Sure thing!" Marco rushed to Anna's side and watched as Tanya quickly ran out of the alley. "Thank God Tanya FINALLY got what being a Sailor Senshi is all about!" he said quietly to himself as he sat down next to Anna.
The taller young girl sighed again and leaned against the side of the building. I..I just don't understand what happened. What does this all mean? she silently asked herself.
-----------------------
"Alright, it's the last door on the left down the hall." said Anna as she walked quietly down the hall of the plush, expensive Park Avenue apartment building with Marco...on a leash as the rules stated, and Tanya. The carpet was newly cleaned and smelled of blossoms. The deep rug felt like clouds on Tanya's sandaled feet.
"This is SO cool! I wish I could have lived in a place like this. You're so lucky that your dad is loaded!" Tanya said in wonder as she kept looking around at the security cameras and gold painted doorknobs on the apartment doors.
Anna's face fell for a moment as she, Tanya, and Marco...who gave a sweat drop at Tanya's comment, paused in front of the apartment door. "Well, being loaded isn't exactly everything. I'd give it all up for a chance to spend more time with him and to do other things than just gymnastics all the time." Anna sadly took out her keys and opened her apartment door.
Tanya nodded and looked into her cousin's eyes with understanding. "Yeah, I know what you mean. My..my dad never had much time for me either, with his missionary business and all. That's why he decided to send me here to America, so I can finally be with someone more my age and that's family while he's in India." she said quietly before lowering her moist eyes, "I really miss him though."
When they walked in, the girls were immediately greeted with barks as a medium sized black dog, resembling a black labrador and wearing a red collar, rushed up to the front door. "Dief! What's up old buddy?" exclaimed Anna as she bent down to give the dog a big hug.
Tanya walked up beside her, a look of complete surprise on her face. "ANNA! You didn't tell me you had a dog too!" She giggled and also bent down to pet and coo the black furred dog. Marco came around from behind them to get a better look. When he did, both dogs suddenly stopped dead in their tracks.
For a few seconds, all was quiet as the two dogs surveyed each other, walking around and looking each other up and down. Then, both dogs gave a yelp of joy, rushed at each other, and fell down on the thick blue rug, barking and playing. The two girls looked at the dogs, blinked a few times, then turned back at each other in surprise, a sweatdrop forming on their heads. They then looked back at the spectacle in front of them. "Ummm, Marco, would you mind telling us what's going on?" asked Tanya quietly, embarrassment heavy in her voice.
"Oh, I am so sorry! I got caught up in the moment of my joy!" gushed Marco, "Girls, I'd like to introduce you to Diefenbaker, who happens to be MY cousin!" He gave a doggy grin. "Dief, meet Tanya Cambridge, also known as Princess Tonicia Knightstar in her previous life." Both girls could only stare in shock as Dief got up in a sitting position and bowed his black head slowly to Tanya.
"Well, there's no use in staying quiet anymore! Nice to finally meet you again, Princess Tonicia Knightstar of the Sirius Star System. And greetings to you, Lady Anja Poelaryes of the Polaris Star System." said Dief, a gleam of mischief in his eyes.
But Anna barely heard any of the formal introduction. She closed her green eyes, put both hands on her cheeks, and shook her head to clear it. "This truly cannot be happening! Dief did NOT just talk to me! This isn't real," she said quietly to herself. She opened her eyes again and looked at Dief and Marco in confusion. "What..what did you just call me?" she asked, still trying to process what was going on. Tanya moved quietly next to her cousin, putting a hand on her shoulder.
"I'm afraid it IS happening Anna, and that it's very real! If you will open your mind to me, you will regain your memories and understand what is happening to you," said Dief as he walked up closer and put a paw on her foot. "You were Lady Anja Poelaryes of the Polaris Star System, and holder of the Polaris Sapphire Star Stone. Trust me, and all will come clear to you." Dief looked deep in Anna's eyes. The taller girl blinked, then turned to look at her cousin in question. Tanya nodded her head.
As soon as Anna looked back at Dief and nodded her head for him to go on, a red symbol appeared on his black forehead. It was the shape of a large N with an arrow pointing up at the end. A white light flashed and shot at Anna's forehead, and the same symbol appeared. The white light grew and soon enveloped both girls as the Sirius symbol appeared on Tanya's forehead.
"It's time for the both of you to remember and to journey back to the past. Perhaps after this, you both can look forward to a better future." Dief whispered hopefully. Tanya and Anna both sighed as the sad memories of their last night on the Moon Kingdom, long hidden, came flooding back:
-------------------------------
Silver Millennium
Moon Kingdom, The Moon Palace August 3, 997 A.D. :
Princess Tonicia frantically ran through the palace halls, desperately looking for her cousin, Lady Anja. She nearly tripped over her now bloodied cream laced dress, but steadied herself. The whole palace was literally being shook from its foundations as it was bombarded with attacks from the Dark Kingdom and Meerage's forces. People everywhere were screaming, dying, and running for their lives from the onslaught of energy attacks and the blood-thirsty Dark Kingdom generals and soldiers. Putting her hands to her ears to try and keep out the deafening noise, Tonicia ran past the fallen pillars and screaming people falling at her feet.
"ANJA! ANJA, WHERE ARE YOU?" screamed out the short, dark-skinned princess. Suddenly, she remembered Anja saying something about going outside for some fresh air after dancing a while ago before the attacks began. Tonicia turned and dashed out to the Royal Gardens, stepping over bodies as she did so. She ran high speed and made it to the Ball Room doors that lead out to the Garden entrance, coughing heavily on the way. The black smoke from the burning fires and burnt bodies nearly choked her, and as Tonicia burst through the doors and into the black, star-filled night, she finally allowed herself to stop, take a deep breath of air, and breathe. Tonicia then frantically looked around her, but only saw people running and screaming, blood running down their faces.
Tonicia ran past them to the walkway that lead to the center of the Royal Garden, trying to keep the sounds of the dying out as she covered her ears again. Nearing the center, she finally saw a form wearing a white lace dress laying on the ground at the foot of the large fountain made to look like Luna, the Goddess of the Moon. Tears streaming down her face, she rushed forward and fell down to her knees by the form. "By the Sirius Gods! Please don't let her be...don't let her be dead!" Tonicia whispered fearfully to herself, gently shaking the tall figure. The body jerked, coughed for a moment, then painfully turned around, revealing a dark beautiful face covered in blood.
"Anja! Oh thank the Gods of Sirius! Are you alright?" said Tonicia as she helped her cousin sit up.
"I..I don't know Tonicia. I hurt so bad," whispered Lady Anja, too weak to move. The princess gently held her cousin in her arms, but before she could say anymore, a form materialized above them. It glowed for a moment and then took the form of a tall man. He had pale skin with white-blonde hair that fell past his shoulders, and cold, merciless blue eyes. He wore a black armor suit with dark blue shields on his chest, arms, and legs.
"There you are! You thought you could get away from me, did you? I will have my revenge for what your father took from me!" King Meerages floated down and stood before them.
"You stay away from her, whoever you are!" screamed out Tonicia, holding Anja closer. The man frowned and looked at the girl curiously for a moment. His cold eyes then softened slightly as recognition set in.
"Ahh yes, the little Sirius Princess," The big man smirked softly as he walked slowly to her. "I know who you are. I have no quarrel with you. I've watched you for a long time, my dear, and I sense the great power you possess. Join me, and we will rule this Universe together!" King Meerages slowly stretched out his hand for the princess to take, confident she would choose him over everything else as other women did.
"NEVER!" the girl yelled without hesitation, her voice filled with loathing and hate, "I recognize you now! You're King Meerages! You deserved everything Queen Serenity did to you and your forces in the first war! I hope you rot in Hell for what you did!"
King Meerages nearly choked with rage on the words Tonicia threw at him, his eyes just about bulging from his head. How dare anyone say that to him! Before he could control himself, he gathered black energy in his hands and raise them above his head. "Insolent wench! No one talks to me like that! The both of you will die for your arrogance!" he screamed with anger. Tonicia tried to reach for her necklace to transform, hidden from view under her dress as Anja's jewel was, but it was too late. The black and dark purple energy raced from his outstretched hands and struck the two girls sitting on the ground heavily. The force of the impact was so strong, it threw the girls back a good ten feet as they screamed horribly with pain, then slammed them hard on the ground, sending debris flying up everywhere. Tonicia immediately broke her back, ribs and neck due to the force, and Anja died instantly, as she had already received major injuries when King Meerages got to her first.
Surprisingly, the princess felt no real pain, yet she knew she was dying. She tried to move and reach for Anja's hand laying next to her own, but found she couldn't move anything. Tonicia only felt the tears form and then run down her already cold cheeks. I'm sorry Anja. Please forgive me for not protecting you," she thought sadly as dark spots appeared before her eyes. Perhaps, in another lifetime. With a sigh, Tonicia calmly closed her eyes, then let the sweet bliss of death lead her to sleep.
-------------------------------
"NOOO! Stop! No more! I don't want to feel that pain again! Please!" screamed out Anna. The memories suddenly changed to her being in Japan and receiving her powers for the first time. The scenes kept changing, and she saw herself fighting with a new band of senshi, fighting for love and justice. The memories then faded and disappeared, and the taller girl took in a deep breath and gasped as she snapped her head up to attention, tears running down her dark cheeks.
Seconds later, a dark blue glow appeared in her hands, and a pink transformation pen with a large blue diamond at the top appeared, glowing strong and bright.
"The Polaris Sapphire Star Stone!" Anna exclaimed as she began to caress it. She looked at Dief, and a slow smile spread across her beautiful face. "Oh Dief! My dear friend!" She knelt down and hugged the black dog. She looked up at him sadly a moment later. "Oh my God, that was so sad! I just can't believe it. Tanya..you were a princess, and I was a...a Lady. And Meerages, he...he killed..." She couldn't help a small sob from escaping her lips. "Did that really happen to us?" Anna asked with tears in her eyes. She turned to look up at Tanya, who was also crying, then at Marco.
"Yes, My Lady, sadly it did. Dief and I came too late to help you and the princess," The golden dog looked up at Tanya. "But now you both have a new life here, a new future to look to. That is why Dief and I erased your memories after you came to America," He nodded at Anna, "And after your recent battles with the Sailor Senshi against Galaxia." He turned his head and nodded at Tanya. "We wanted you to be completely normal girls, growing up with hopes and dreams when you moved to America. But now another new threat has come, and you must be ready to defeat it!" Marco laid a paw on Anna's foot. "Do you think you are ready?"
"Yes...yes, I think so!" said Anna nervously as she stood up on shaky legs. Tanya walked over and hugged her.
"If we stick together, we can do anything! I'm sure we can!" said Tanya happily, then winked in assurance. The taller girl laughed softly and hugged her back.
"Stick together and do what?" asked a deep voice, standing in front of the apartment door.
"DAD!" yelled out Anna. Both girls looked nervously at each other as the tall man entered the room.

Sailor Moon: Dark Stars
Chapter 4
Anna Kendon looked up with surprise at her father James Kendon, standing in front of the lush apartment's door. At first, both father and daughter regarded each other in silence for long moments, the look on their faces betraying the tension they felt towards each other.
"I asked a question, and I believe I deserve an answer." James Kendon began, breaking the too long silence. The tall dark-skinned man crossed his arms on his chest and walked up to the two girls in the living room.
"Oh, ummm, it's nothing, really Dad! Tanya and I were just talking," Anna said nervously. She looked at Tanya. "OH! You remember cousin Tanya, right? She came to stay here while her father is away? Remember?"
James regarded the smaller girl with curiosity for a moment, then moved closer and offered an outstretched hand. "Oh yes! Of course I remember! Welcome to America, Tanya. I hope that you will be able to enjoy your stay here. Please let me know if there is anything that you need." said the man. "I enjoyed talking with your father, and I know he loves you and will miss you very much.
Tanya, unused to physical contact with strangers, just stood there for a moment, looking at the outstretched hand. Then gathering her wits, she shyly took her uncle's hand and shook it gently. "T...Thank you, sir! It's an honor to be here and to meet you. I'm sure I am going to have a great time in such an exciting country as America. My father has told me so much about it."
Although Tanya had been to her father's native country of Jamaica many times and knew it well, she had never been to his adopted country of America, and she had long dreamed of visiting it, especially New York. Excitement like none other raced through her veins at the many stories she remembered hearing about, and she smiled gratefully at him for the chance of coming here. "Oh, and that's my dog Marco!" Tanya pointed at the Golden Retriever.
"Another dog?" the dark-skinned man sighed. "Well, I guess we can deal with that for now, and please, call me Uncle James. You're family!" The tall man looked at Marco, then back at Tanya. He released Tanya's hand and gave Anna hard look. "Now, all I want to know is if you girls are all right. I heard on the radio in my office that your favorite restaurant downtown was blown up or something! I figured you girls would be there on your way back from the airport, so I had to rush over and see if you had made it home." James ushered the girls over to the large blue couch to sit down.
Anna sat on her father's right side, while Tanya sat on the left. "It's alright Dad, we're fine!" said Anna. "Actually, we managed to get out of that place just as things were starting to go crazy. But all of Tanya's clothes and things, and Marco's carrier was destroyed..." Anna cautiously began to tell the story of what happened in the restaurant, but carefully leaving out the part of Super Sailor Sirius and the monster that attacked them, going with the story of a fire.
"Thank God you girls are alright now!" said Anna's father when she finished, giving out a sigh of relief. He placed a hand on her shoulder. "Especially you. I mean, what if you had broken a leg or something? You would never be able to start your gymnastics career," He nodded his dark head. "But you're fine now, and that's all that matters." James tried to take his daughter's hand, but Anna quickly snatched it away and stood up angrily.
"Is that all you care about? If I broke my leg and ruined my gymnastics career?" shouted Anna. Tears were already beginning to form in her eyes. "What about me? What if ME or Tanya would have gotten hurt?" She narrowed her eyes to slits. "I guess it wouldn't matter, because you don't give a damn!" Too angry to say any more, Anna tried to run to her room, unable to stand being in front of her father, but as soon as she turned, James stood up, grabbed her arm and pulled her to him roughly.
"You listen to me! Don't you EVER speak to me that way again!" James yelled back. "I worked too hard to bring you this far, and..and..." The tall man backed down a little when he saw the growing hate and distance in his daughter's eyes. He turned and looked at Tanya, sitting down with a confused and frightened look on her face. He let out a sigh. "It's just that..that..your mother and I was so worried about you!"
Anna's eyes narrowed at those words. "She's NOT my mother!" she hissed, pulling her arm from her father's grasp.
For a moment, James looked at his daughter with hopelessness in his eyes. Then he shook his head sadly. "Look, I'm going back to the office to finish preparing for my business trip. From now on, you are not to go anywhere without letting me know." he said softly, but the rage was still in his voice. He turned and stormed through the front door, slamming it hard behind him as he left and shaking the glass ornaments and paintings on the wall. Marco and Dief growled low in their throats.
When her father left, Anna finally allowed the tears to fall. Tanya got up from the couch, walked up to Anna, and gently took her hands into her own. "Anna-chan, daijobu yo?" Tanya asked softly, hardly noticing that she had switched to her adopted language of Japanese.
"Hai, dijoubu wa," replied Anna. She carefully wiped the tears from her cheeks. "Gomen, it's just that, ever since my mother..passed away, he was always worried about my future and my career. It was alright at first, but ever since he got married again..." Anna felt a lump in her throat at the memories of her father pushing her beyond her endurance. Tanya placed a hand on her cousin's shoulder.
"It's alright. I completely understand. You miss your mom, as I miss mine." said Tanya sadly. For a few moments, there was just silence as the girls thought about their respective mothers. Then, Anna lifted up her head and smiled, determined to show her cousin a good time.
"Well, the day might be almost over now, but we have a full day ahead of us tomorrow. So what do you want to do?" Anna bent down and whispered in her cousin's ear "Maybe we can sneak out of here!" she whispered cheerfully, wiping away the last of her tears and smiling.
"Hmmm...let's see," Tanya placed a finger on her chin in thought, "OH! There is this one place that I've heard about that I am dying to see, and one thing I have wanted to do for so long: Go see Central Park and do some roller blading!" Tanya clasped her hands together in excitement.
The taller girl laughed happily and turned to the two guardian dogs sitting by them. "Sounds alright to me! What about you guys?" Anna asked.
"Fine, just as long as we don't have to roll-over and play dead in the grass. Do you know what is IN there?" said Dief with a doggy frown. Both girls laughed as a sweatdrop appeared over Marco as he sighed.
"Well, it sounds like a date for tomorrow then!" Anna cheered. "I got some roller blades and a new bike. Plus, I think I got some clothes that might fit you great!" She took Tanya's hand and dragged her to her bedroom as the shorter girl laughed.
----------------------------------
Central Park, New York City
The Next Day
Hidden in the shadows and shades of trees in a large area in the park, Pitkin secretly watched for the human with the greatest energy output for his minion Slicer to take over. The small bald-head man looked around at the humans with disgust and anger. "Look at those stupid humans, just wasting all that energy that could be used for my master and his ultimate plan!" the little man sneered. The small ball in the palm in his hand was pulsating a red glow, reading the energy of the humans not too far from where he was standing. Everywhere he looked, Pitkin saw humans walking, talking, reading, eating, or just listening to music. "Soon, all of you will be bowing to the might of the Meerages!" snickered the small man. He licked his lips in anticipation of what was to come. Pitkin then continued to point the silver ball at the humans. Suddenly, it started to glow even more brighter when it fell upon a young man a few feet away, just out of his teens, practicing martial arts by a broken lamppost and completely isolated from the other people. He was not much to look at, wearing baggy clothes and with unkempt hair, but seemed very determined in his practice and martial arts.
"HEHEHE!" laughed out Pitkin, putting the ball away in his pocket. "At last, a victim to carry out our plan to bring this planet to ruin! Slicer, come forth!" He threw up a small hand. The wind blew a little stronger right then, and red mist appeared around the little man. It rose to the air, then slowly materialized into a large insect monster that resembled a praying mantis. Its eyes were pitch red, and instead of the normal claws of the insect, it had large knives and swords sticking out of its arm sockets.
"Yessss, Master! How may I be of ssssserviccce!" Slicer growled, already eager for the taste of human energy. Pitkin pointed to the young man by the lamppost. "You know what to do! Go and collect energy for the Great Cause!" he said, then laughed a high-pitched sound.
The creature let out a loud growl and leaped about 11 feet into the air with his hind legs. He landed directly in front of the young man with a loud thud. When the man saw the monster, his eyes widened in terror. "Hey! What the hell is going on?" he cried out as he went into a fighting stance.
"You will not be hurt, as long as you surrender to me! You can no longer resist, you are in MY power!" said Slicer as he stood before the frightened man. His red eyes began to swirl as he stared into the young man's eyes.
"I...I can not longer resist.." repeated the man blankly. His eyes also began to turn red and swirl around. With a evil and quiet laugh, the monster once again turned into a red mist, then floated right into the man's mouth. The man screamed as his arms began to enlarge and turn into large knives and swords.
------------------------------------
"Okay Tanya, you ready?" shouted Anna as she made a last adjustment on her bike helmet, then checked knee pads and elbow pads while sitting on the bike seat. The light tan shorts set outfit she wore accented her dark complexion beautifully, and her dark brown skin glowed brightly in the sunlight. After putting on the helmet and tying her long dark brown hair in a ponytail, she set her sandaled feet on the bike pedals.
"You bet Anna! Let's get this show on the road!" laughed out Tanya from behind. The bright blue shorts set outfit she wore hugged her body comfortably, showing off her perfect shape and flawless dark skin. She pushed a strand of black hair behind her ear, checked her knee pads and elbow pads, and made sure the straps on her roller blades were just right. She grabbed on tight to the bike seat right after that.
"Umm, are you sure you girls know what you're doing?" asked Marco quietly, trying to conceal his voice from the people passing by. Dief lay on the ground with both paws over his head.
"Of course we do, Marco! Now quit worrying and get out of the way!" said Anna with a frown. Looking back at Tanya and winking, both girls nodded. "ONE, TWO, THREE, GO!" shouted Anna, then started paddling. Soon, they picked up speed, and Tanya felt the wind rush past her face and felt the ground roll by underneath her wheeled feet. Marco and Diefen quickly ran behind them.
"WHOAAAA! This is SOOO cool!" shouted Tanya. Both girl's hair were streaming wildly behind them as they rushed down a bike lane hill. People looked curiously after them as they continued to rush pass, shouting and laughing all the way. The ride went on for about 6 minutes, when Tanya noticed something Anna didn't as she looked up and past the taller girl's shoulders. Anna had her eyes closed with a wide grin.
"ANNA! LOOK OUT! YOU'RE HEADED RIGHT FOR THE GR..." Tanya never got to finish as Anna rode out of the bike lane and straight into the grassy part of the park. Trying to keep her balance, Anna didn't notice as they headed for a large mound made out of dirt. Unable to stop, both girls quickly headed up the mound, then came crashing down with a yell. Tanya landed right on top of Anna and the bike. The girls laid there for a few seconds, groaning in pain.
"ITAI! Where did that come from?" said Anna painfully as she got up and rubbed the small of her sore back. Tanya got up with a grunt and rubbed her sore arms. "Next time, let ME be the one that's driving?" Tanya said between lagged breath. The cousins looked at each other then started to laugh. The laughter died immediately in grunts of pain.
"Are you girls alright? Oh! I knew this wasn't a good idea!" said Dief as he and Marco came running over the mound towards them. Before either of them could answer though, a loud scream and panicked cries cut through the funny moment. Taking their helmets off at the same time, the girls looked over to their left at the fence and watched a horrific scene unfold before them; a large man, with big red eyes and large knives and swords coming out of his arm sockets, was attacking the people in the baseball field. Red mist flew out of his mouth, and every time it went over someone, they fell to the ground unconscious. Then, a white light rose up out of them and went straight into the possessed man.
"KAMI-SAMA! What is that?" said Anna, slowly backing away as her green eyes widen in fear.
"That is a call to duty, and for you both to live out your destiny!" said Dief, running up to both girls with Marco. "I hope you remembered to bring your henshin items. You must transform and defend these people! If you believe you can do it, you will!" Dief laid a black paw on Anna's foot.
"Hai!" said Tanya, then she turned to Anna. "Anna-chan! Hiyaku, henshin yo!" She kicked off the roller blades and ran to a hidden spot to transform. Anna nodded nervously, then followed, kicking off her own roller blades and taking her henshin pen from her pocket. If I truly believe, I can do it! Tanya, Marco, and Dief believe in me! she thought, her heart beating heavily against her chest.
Finally standing next to each other under a shady tree, each girl raised a right hand in the air and began their transformation. For some reason, the familiar phrase came rushing to Anna's mind:
"POLARIS NORTH STAR POWER! MAKE-UP!"
"SIRIUS EMERALD STAR POWER! MAKE-UP!"
In a flash, each girl was surrounded by a dark violet and pink light. When the transformation was done, Super Sailor Sirius stood in a fighting pose wearing a white, violet, and black fuku, while Sailor Polaris stood besides her, ready to fight in a pink, yellow, and white fuku.
Slicer moved forward towards a little boy, crying besides his unconscious mother. As he got ready to steal his energy, two young voices cut through the air. "MACHINASAI! Hold it right there, you disgusting bug!"
"What's thisss?" screamed out the large possessed man, then looked up to see who would dare disturb his work. Against the morning sun, two dark silhouettes appeared on the scene.
"How low can you go, disturbing the peace of the people in this park! Don't you dare think I will let you get away with that! As sure as the star that shines brightest in the heavens, I am Sailor Sirius, and you WILL be vanquished!" Sirius shouted, pointing her finger at him.
"You will not be tolerated! Representing the Star that has guided humanity since the dawn of time, I am Sailor Polaris, and you will be star-dust!" shouted Sailor Polaris. Both senshi stood back to back, arms crossed over their chest.
Slicer yawned, covering his mouth, then fixed the girls a cold hard stare. "OH SSSSHUT UP! I am SSSSlicer, and how'sss thisss for not being tolerated? YAHHHH!" With a angry roar, the mutated man shot out dozens of large knives at the two dark-skinned senshi. Quickly Sirius and Polaris jumped up out of the way of the knives, flipping over the monster's head and barely missing the knives in time....or so they thought. With a gasp, Sailor Sirius suddenly felt pain. Looking down, she saw a medium-sized cut on her thigh and watched in horror as blood slowly came out and made a small trail down her leg.
"OOHHH! You ugly slime ball! You're gonna pay for that!" Sirius shouted in rage. She raised her right hand in the air, and magically, the Sirius Scepter appeared. She pointed to it at the mutated man and prepared to fire. Unimpressed, the creature screamed loudly and began shooting out more large knives to cut the girls to pieces.
