The Great Battle


By Kit

Chapter 1

     "All right, scouts. This is going to be our biggest battle yet," said Luna. The scouts and her were sitting in their secret hideout.

     "Bigger than the one against Queen Beryl?" asked Amy.

     "Much bigger," said Luna.

     "Well, Meatball Head over here sure isn't ready," said Raye.

     "Shut up, Raye! This could be important!" said Serena.

     "Yes, it is, Serena. If you guys don't train your hardest, you could die," said Luna.

     "So, who are we up against, Luna?" asked Amy.

     "Yeah, what bimbos dare to fight us? I bet I could beat them with one arm tied behind my back!" said Raye.

     "Doesn't Mars Fire Ignite take 2 hands?" ask Serena.

     "Shut up, braindead," said Raye.

     "Knock it off, girls! We're up against the Slammers,"

     "THE SLAMMERS?" asked Serena, "what kind of name is that?!?!?"

     "There best way of fighting is to capture the opponent. And another name for jail is The Slammer. But they don't do it during battle. Battle is not their strong point. But they will capture. One by one until only the one they think is the weakest is left. They destroy teamwork."

     "But what do they do with the captured? I don't believe they'd let them go," said Amy.

     "You're right, Amy. They don't let them go. After all but that one has been captured, first they send nightmares to the one that's left at night. The people in the nightmares taunt them and point out the person's faults. When the person tries to attack, the attacks bounce off the enemies. When the person wakes up,they feel helpless and weak. But then comes the most dirty trick of all," said Luna.

     "What's that?" asked Mina.

     "They turn the captured ones against the one who is left," replied Luna.

     Everyone was quiet.

     "Oh, no," said Amy quietly, "oh, no." But no one heard her. They were too busy asking who'd be left. But Amy already knew.

     Meanwhile, back at the secret hideout of The Slammers-

     "ROLE CALL!" shouted Buzz, the leader. His name is Buzz because of his buzz haircut.

     "Gizmo," he called.

     "Ready!" said Gizmo, the electronics man

     "Tom!"

     "YEAH!" said Tom. His full name is Tom E. Gun. Say his name out loud, and you can probably guess what he does for the team.

     "Blade!"

     "Yeah, what?" said Blade. By his name, you can guess what he does.

     "Okay, let's get this started!" said Buzz.

     "WAIT! You forgot me!" said a little guy in weird clouthes.

     Buzz (extremely angry) said "Fitzgereld! Go home!"

     "But you said I could be part of the team! WAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!! I'm telling mother you won't let me play!"

     "No, come back! Don't tell mom! Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeease! She won't let me be a gang member anymore! I let you be in the team! Just don't tell mom!"

     "BUZZ!" said Tom.

     "Buzz? Who's Buzz?" asked Fitzgereld.

     "You're big brother, of course!" said Gizmo, "Buzz is your real name, isn't it, Buzz?"

     "No, his name is Mervin," said Fitzgereld.

     Tom, Blade, and Gizmo burst out laughing. "MERVIN? Bwahaha!" said Tom.

     "Hi, My name is Mervin, and I'm a Good Boy! Hahahaha!" said Blade.

     "Mervin the Good Boy! Mervin the Good Boy! Hahahahahaha!" said Gizmo.

     "I am not a Good Boy! And I'm still the leader! So, SHUT UP!"

     "Who are you to stop us, MERVIN? Bwahahahaha!"

     "FITZGERELD! I outta shoot you! Too bad I'm your brother!" said Buzz.

     After the laughing and teasing was over, Buzz said, "I can't help the fact that my mother named me Mervin. But I am still Buzz to the rest of you scumbags! Now, Fitzgereld needs a new name if he's going to be in our gang."

     "Oh, oh oh oh! I got it! I want to be named Rainbow!" said Fitzgereld.

     "RAINBOW?!?!? Now that's something to laugh at! Bwahahahahahaha!" said Tom.

     The whole room, except Fitzgereld, of course, burst into laughter. When it died down, Buzz said, "Sissy Boy would be better."

     "YEAH! Sissy Boy!" said Blade.

     "It's perfect!" said Gizmo.

     "It fits him so well!" said Tom.

     "Okay, Sissy Boy it is!" said Buzz.

     "But I don't wanna be named Sissy Boy! I wanna be named Rainbow!"

     "The other members of the team ALWAYS decide a new member's nickname," said Gizmo.

     "Really?" asked Fitzgereld.

     "Really," said Blade.

     "Okay, I'm Sissy Boy!" said Sissy Boy.

     "YEAH!" cried out the rest of the team.

     "Now, Gizmo, which Sailor Brat should we put the Watcher on?" asked Buzz.

     "What's the Watcher?" asked Sissy Boy.

     "A device that will tell us which enemy is the weakest," said Gizmo, "I made it myself."

     "Anyways, Gizmo, who should we put it on?" asked Buzz.

     "Well, we don't know 'em that well, we haven't seen 'em fight, so we should either put one on the leader or one on all of 'em," said Gizmo.

     "ALL OF THEM?" asked Sissy Boy.

     "Well, there's only 5," said Tom.

     "I think we should take those talking cats first. They help 'em too much," said Blade.

     "Good idea," said Buzz.

     "TALKING CATS? Oh, Mervin, oops! I mean, Buzz, could I have one? I want a cat! A talking one!" said Sissy Boy.

     "No, you can't have a talking cat! We need those to help the ones we turn against the weak ones," said Buzz.

     "But how do you turn them against the weak one?" asked Sissy Boy.

     "With a little computer chip I make. We control their brains," said Gizmo.

     "Well, get to work on those Watchers. We have to move now!" said Buzz.

     "Already made 'em," said Gizmo. He opened his palm to reveal 5 small (and I mean small!) computer chips.

     "Now we just have to figure out how to get them on those girls...." said Buzz.

    


Chapter 2

     Serena, Amy, Raye, Lita, and Mina went to the park. They practically had to drag Amy away from her training. Amy still hadn't told them what she knew.

     "How did Luna know all that stuff about The Slammers?" asked Serena.

     "And how did she know we were gonna fight them?" asked Lita.

     "Well, Artemis told me that Luna got an e-mail from them telling her that they were going to fight us Sailor Brats. So Luna checked their records. Did you know that they escaped from prison 52 times?"

     "No," the others said.

     "Let's go swing on the swings!" said Serena.

     "Okay!" the others agreed. They went to the swings. There were 6 swings on the swingset. There was no one in 5 of them. In the other one, was Buzz. The scouts did not know it was him, nor did they know that Blade, Tom, and Gizmo were hiding in the bushes near the swings. Sissy Boy was at home, taking his afternoon nap.

     "There they are! Those are the Sailors!" whispered Gizmo.

     "How can you tell?" asked Tom.

     "How many other people do you know who wear their hair in pigtails with balls on top?"

     "None," said Tom.

     "Exactly," said Gizmo.

     "But how do you know the others are scouts, too?" asked Blade.

     "How many girls do you know with short, darkblue hair?"

     "None," said Blade, "but what about the others?"

     "Just listen," said Gizmo. They heard one say, "I swing the highest! I'm better than all of you!"

     "Yeah, that's Sailor Mars alright," said Blade, "Gizmo's right."

     "What about that brown-haired one with the ponytail?" asked Tom.

     "Look at her height," said Gizmo. They saw her swing as high as she could then jump off. She walked back to her swing.

     "Dang, she's tall, for a girl. That's Sailor Jupiter, for sure," said Tom, "but I'm not completely satified. What about the blonde?"

     "Watch her," said Gizmo. They saw her get off her swing and go flirt with a guy on the soccer field.

     "Yup, you're right. That is most definitly, 100% Sailor Venus. You were right," said Tom.

     "Of course I was right! I'm always right! You just have no powers of observation! You are no Sherlock Holmes, my friend," said Gizmo.

     "Who's he?" asked Blade.

     "Nevermind," said Gizmo.

     Just then, They saw Buzz get up from the swing, and walk over to the slide.

     "Let's go!" said Blade. They got out from the bushes and snuck over to Buzz.

     "Okay," Buzz whispered, "Plan A can't be done, but Plan B can."

     "But how?" asked Tom.

     "We lure them away," said Buzz.

     "To where?" asked Gizmo.

     "Somewhere where there's not many people, like.....the basketball court!"

     "No way! Someone playing soccer would see us," said Blade.

     "Yeah, that's true.....hmm, let me think...." said Buzz.

     "Shhhh! We've got company!" said Gizmo.

     They looked up from their huddle and there they saw Serena, who was 2 feet away from them.

     "Hi! Think about what? Maybe I can help," said Serena.

     "Have you been listening to our entire conversation?" asked Buzz, with a dangerous look in his eye.

     "No, I just heard 'hmm, let me think' and thought I could help," said Serena.

     "No, you can't-wait a second," said Buzz, "maybe you can..."

     "WHAT?" asked Blade, "What the he-" but Buzz slapped his hand over Blade's mouth before he could say any more.

     "Let me talk with my buddies for a minute," said Buzz. He lead the boys over to the basketball court.

     When Buzz took his hand off Blade's mouth, Blade screamed, "WHAT ON EARTH WAS THAT FOR?!?!?"

     "Shut up! You don't want someone to hear, do you?" asked Tom.

     "She can get her friends over to us," said Buzz.

     "How?" asked Tom.

     "She's so stupid, she'll do anything. Lucky for us, their leader is an idiot," said Buzz.

     "Okay, let's go! Say we want.....dates," said Buzz.

     "With them???????????????? No way!" said Gizmo.

     "We aren't gonna GO on the dates, just make 'em think that," said Buzz.

     "Okay," said Gizmo.

     "Uhhhh, whatever your name is, girl, we think you can help," said Buzz, meaning Serena.

     "Yes?" she asked.

     "Yeah, you know those friends of yours? Well, we want dates with 'em," said Buzz.

     "I'll go ask them," she said. She went over to the swings. She whispered something to them. She brought them back to the boys.

     "Yeah," said Tom, "I want her," he said, pointing to Mina.

     "Okay!" she said.

     "Uhhh, I'll want........her," Blade said, pointing to Lita.

     "Sure!" she said.

     "Wait, hold up," said Mina, when's the date?"

     "Right now. We'll take ya to a new ice cream place," said Buzz.

     "ICE CREAM!!!!!" shouted Serena. Her eyes looked like little ice cream cones. Everybody laughed.

     "Gee, uh, I wanna go with..........her," he said pointing to Amy.

     "I don't know......" she faultered.

     "Come on, Amy! It's just for ice cream! Greg won't be too mad!" the girls said.

     "Oh, okay," she said.

     "Yay!" said Serena.

     "Hey! You guys! I'm here!" called Sissy Boy, running up to them.

     "Uh, let me talk to my little friend here," said Buzz. Buzz whispered in Sissy Boy's ear.

     "Oh, no, not Sissy Boy!" muttered Tom.

     Buzz and Sissy Boy walked back to the others.

     "I want-" started Sissy Boy.

     "Hold it! I get to go before you! I'm older! I want, oh, pigtail girl," said Buzz, meaning Serena.

     "That means your stuck with Raye!" said Serena.

     "Shoot," said Sissy Boy.

     "So what are your names?" asked Serena. Each of the boys gave their real names.

     "I'm Charlie," said Blade.

     "My name is Tom," said Tom.

     "My name is Fitzgereld," said Sissy Boy.

     "The name's Mervin," said Buzz.

     "MERVIN?????????? THAT'S WORSE THAN MELVIN!" shouted Serena.

     They all got into Buzz's car. He drove them to an empty parking lot that used to go with a movie theater, but the theater was abandoned.

     "This isn't an ice cream place," said Serena as the stepped out of the car.

     "And we aren't on a date!" said Buzz, "get 'em, Slammers!"

     Each boy strted wrestling with his "date". Each of them got a Watcher on his girl.

     "MERCURY STAR POWER!" yelled Amy, after getting free of Gizmo's grip.

     "VENUS STAR POWER!" yelled Mina after wrestling Tom away.

     "MARS STAR POWER!" yelled Raye, after defeating Sissy Boy with one punch.

     "JUPITER STAR POWER!" yelled Lita, after pinning Blade to the ground.

     They transformed.

     "Mars fire................IGNITE!!" Sailor Mars yelled, She tripped over Blade, who was still on the ground, so the fireball scortched her!

     "Mercury Bubbles............BLAST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" yelled Sailor Mercury. Sailor Venus, Sailor Mars and Sailor Jupiter, just as Sailor Mercury filled the place with bubbles, pulled Buzz of of Sailor Moon so she could get free. Buzz burst away from them and got into his car. "SLAMMERS, LET'S GO!" he yelled. Blade heaved himself off the ground and went to the car. Gizmo grabbed Sissy Boy by the hand and draged himself and Sissy Boy to the car. Tom struggled to get up and made his way to the car. They got in and drove away.

     "They're strong," said Tom, "very strong."

     "Sailor Jupiter sure packs a punch," said Blade.

     "Sailor Mars is tough," said Sissy Boy.

     "A 3-year-old could beat you up, sissy," said Buzz.

     "That Sailor Moon......I beat her, but she wasn't in scout form. But she put up a great fight," said Buzz.

     "The one who had me.....Mercury, she was good,"

     "I didn't see her pull me offa Pigtails, did ja smoke 'er?" asked Buzz.

     "Naw. She got away. She was da one who filled the place with the frickin' bubbles," said Gizmo.

     "Did ya plant the Watchers?" asked Gizmo, "I did. I got it on her skirt just as she pulled away."

     "I managed to just before she punched me in the stomach," said Sissy Boy.

     "Where?" asked Gizmo.

     "Her skirt. That's all I could reach."

     "Blade?"

     "Right before she pinned me, back of her blouse."

     "Tom?"

     "When I pulled her down. On her sleeve."

     "Buzz?"

     "When I pinned her. On her bow"

     "Will they transfer to their regular clothes?" asked Tom.

     "Sure. Watchers follow the one they're watching," said Gizmo.

     "Didn't it suck when we actually had to follow them?" asked Blade.

     "Yeah, and wear those stupid Listeners so we could know what they were thinking?" said Buzz.

     "We're there," said Buzz.

     "Let's go check the computer," said Gizmo.

     Meanwhile, back at the parking lot the girls had changed back. Little did they know they were being watched...

     "Oh, man I hurt," said Mina.

     "Those guys are strong," said Amy.

     "Owwwwww!" moaned Serena.

     "It was quite a struggle," said Lita.

     "I thought Luna said they aren't fighters," said Mina.

     "I guess she was wrong," said Raye.

     "You know.....even though those guys attacked us....I don't think that's what they did this for. I have the strangest feeling that they had another reason in mind," said Amy.

     "What else could they have been trying to do, Amy?" asked Lita.

     "I don't know. But I wish I did," said Amy.

    


Chapter 3

     At the hideout of The Slammers...

     "Well, what are they doing?" Buzz asked Gizmo, who was watching the girls on the computer.

     "It appears they are telling Luna what happened," said Gizmo, "now Jupiter's asking them to come to her house for dinner. Everyone's going except Mercury, who says she has to train more. I wonder what she's thinking...." Gizmo hit a button. You could plainly hear Serena think, "Boy Lita's a good cook! I can't WAIT for dinner! Maybe we'll have ice cream for dessert!". Mina was thinking about the same thing. Lita was thinking, "I love cooking! I'm gonna be a housewife when I grow up. Too bad Amy's not coming...." Raye was thinking, "Ooh, those guys made me so mad! The ruined my hair! Now I'll have to fix it..."

     "You know...I never would guess that Jupiter would want to be a HOUSEWIFE. A pro-wrestler, maybe, but NOT a housewife!" said Blade.

     "What's Mercury thinking?" asked Buzz.

     "Let's see. She's thinking.....'I've got to train harder if we're gonna beat those guys. I don't think I'm ready' ," said Gizmo.

     "You guys.....I think we've found the weak link in the Sailor Scout's chain," said Tom.

     "I think you're right," said Gizmo.

     "I hope she trains her hardest. The better she is, the more she'll kill before they kill her. Then there will be less for us to kill," said Blade, "not that I don't love killing, of course."

     "Who goes first after the cats?" asked Tom.

     "Why, big mouth, of course!" said Buzz, "Sailor Mars."

     "Let's go get those kitties!" said Sissy Boy.

     "Yeah, they deserve the torture," said Tom.

     "According to the computer, their at Venus's house. Venus ain't there, though," said Gizmo.

     "Perfect. Let's move out, men!" said Buzz.

     They left. They went to Mina's house. They snuck up by the side of the house and hid in some bushes.

     "Peep in the window and see if their there," said Buzz to Sissy Boy.

     Sissy Boy did so. "Their in there," said Sissy boy, "right by the window. They're sleeping."

     Tom lifted his gun.

     "You aren't gonna kill 'em, are you?" asked Sissy Boy.

     "Nah, just stun them. It will wear off in about an hour," said Tom. He opened the window and pointed the gun at the cats. He shot. He shot again.

     "Perfect hits!" he said. He reached his arm in and grabbed them. Blade opened a sack. Tom put them in. Blade closed the bag and picked it up.

     "Let's go," said Buzz. They left. When they got back, they put Luna and Artemis in cages in the dungeon. Then they went to look at the computer. Mina was coming back. "Luna, Artemis, I'm back!" she called. "Luna? Artemis? Where are you?" She then ran out of the house to tell the others. They were shocked.

     "It must be the enemy!" said Amy, "everyone had better watch their backs."

     "Hey, I know just how to get Mars," said Tom.

     "How?" asked Gizmo.

     Tom whispered something to Gizmo.

     "Ahhhhhh," said Gizmo. "It'll work like a charm."

     Tom told everyone else the plan.

     "It's perfect!" said Buzz.

     "Who do we do next, anyways? I mean, after Mars?" asked Blade.

     "Well, Moon, then Venus, then Jupiter," said Buzz.

     "Well, I've got the perfect plans to get Venus and Moon." said Blade. He told them his plan.

     "And I know how to get Jupiter," said Buzz. He told the others his plan.

     "Victory, here we come!" said Sissy Boy.

     "Spoken like a true Slammer," said Buzz.

     "Should we take care of Mars now?" asked Tom.

     "Sure. Gizmo, get the stuff together. Okay? Move out!" said Buzz.

     They went to Raye's Grandpa's temple. There they found her feeding her crows. Gizmo, in disguise, went up to Raye.

     "Ah, Miss! I am selling crowns! Only the perfect should get them!" he said, with a fake accent.

     "Crowns? As in, for a princess?" she asked.

     "Yes! All of your friends will respect you!" said Gizmo.

     "Well....how much does it cost?" asked Raye.

     "No charge for you, little princess. Only the undeserving pay."

     "Wow, I'll get one! A princess....ole' Meatballhead will be so jealous!" she said. He handed her one. She placed it on her head. Suddenly, her pupils got really small.

     "What do you ask, Master?" she asked in a flat voice.

     "That you come with me," said Gizmo. He walked to where the others where, behind the temple. She followed him. They took her back to the hideout, and put her in the dungeon, chained up. Before they went back up, Buzz took the crown off. The second it was off, she looked normal again. She sounded normal, too. "LET ME OUT THIS INSTANT!" she shouted. But the walls were sound proof, and no one could hear her shout. Buzz, Blade, Gizmo, and Tom went back up to play Poker, but Sissy Boy stayed behind.

     "Ha ha, ain't so tough now, are ya?" he asked. He pulled at her hair, but Raye twisted and bit his arm.

     "OWWWWWWWWWW!" he yelled. "MY ARM, MY ARRRRRRRRM!"

     "Quit your screechin', igit!" said Gizmo.

     "What's an igit?" asked Blade.

     "A fancy word for idiot," Gizmo replied.

     "DON'T CALL ME AN IDIOT!" shouted Sissy Boy. Holding his arm, he went up.

     "Ah, shut up," said Tom.

     "I got 2 Aces, what you got?" asked Buzz.

     "Hah! 3 queens," said Blade.

     "I beat all of ya. I got a Full House, baby! 2 kings and three 5s," said Tom.

     Tom was about to take the money in the middle of the table when Gizmo said, "Stop! Feel the power of my......FLUSH! Ha ha ha!" Gizmo got the money.

     "Aw, man!" said Tom.

     "Let's just go get Meatball Brains," said Buzz.

     "Okay," said Gizmo.

     "Hey, Sissy Boy! Let's go!" said Blade.

     Sissy Boy walked into the room. Tom grabbed the box of stuff they'd need.

     "Okay, Meatball is at her house, right?" asked Blade.

     "Right," said Gizmo.

     "Let's ride!" said Buzz.

     When they reached Serena's house, they hid behind the hedges.

     "You guys ready?" whispered Buzz.

     "Ready!" whispered the others.

     "Okay, go, Blade!" said Buzz. Blade walked up to the door. He rang the doorbell. Serena answered.

     "Hi," she said, "what can I do for you?" she asked.

     "You must mean what can I do for you, young lady!" said Blade, with a fake accent. "I'm selling Ice Cream! It's a new flavor! Macho-Choco!"

     "Oh, yummy, ice cream!!!!!!!!!! How much, sir?" she asked.

     "Our first 5 costumers get it free of charge. You are the 3rd, you get it free!" said Blade.

     "What company are you with?" she asked.

     "Ice Cream R' Us. We're new, you see," he said.

     "Oh, well, I'd like some of your Macho-Choco!" she said. She stepped outside. He handed her a cone of ice cream. She licked it. "Mmmmmmm! It's good!" she said. She started to take another lick, when her pupils got really small, like Raye's did.

     "What do you ask, Master?" she asked, in a flat voice.

     "That you come with us," said Blade.

     "Yes, Master," said Serena. The others came out from hiding. They took her to their hideout. Down to the dungeons the took her. Raye instantly knew that they had Serena.

     "SERENA! It's a trap! Wake up! Transform! DO SOMETHING!" yelled Raye. But Serena couldn't hear her.

     "And what are you doing with that Ice Cream????????" asked Raye.

     Buzz, Gizmo, Tom, and Sissy Boy chained up Serena. Then Blade gave her water.

     "Drink," he said. She did so. The second the water hi her lips, her pupils got bir again. Her voice returned to normal. "Hey, what am I doing here?" she asked. The Slammers were heading up the stairs when they heard Serena cry out, "No, please! Don't leave me down here with RAYE!!!!!!!!!!!!"

     The Slammers just laughed and went upstairs.

     "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!! NOT ALONE WITH RAYE!!!!!!!!!!!!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" they heard her shout as they shut the door behind them.

     "Okay, now that's done," said Blade, "should we get Venus now, or wait for later?"

     "Later," said Tom. "I need to win that Poker money back from Gizmo. So they sat down to play cards.

     "Okay, I've got 3 sixes, how 'bout you guys?" asked Blade.

     "2 pair. Aces and 3s," said Buzz.

     "I got three 5s," said Sissy Boy.

     "Okay, Gizmo, I won this time! 3 kings!!!!!!!!!" said Tom.

     "Don't take the money yet, Tom. 4 sevens ruin your day!!!!!!" said Gizmo. "Once again, Gizmo the Great beat you bad in Poker!!" said Gizmo.

     "Shut up," said Tom, "let's just go get Venus."

     "Okay, it's your turn to do the job,Tom," said Buzz. Tom picked up the stuff they'd need, and the went to Mina's house. They hid behind the house.

     "You ready?" Buzz asked Tom.

     "Yeah," said Tom. He went to the front of the hose with a box. He rang the doorbell. Mina answered.

     "Hi! What can I do for you?" she asked.

     "Hello, I'm from Lots o' Charms. Would you like to buy a love charm?" he asked.

     "Oooooooooh, would I! But, what's the cost?" she asked.

     "For you, beautiful Miss, free," he said.

     "Ohhhhhhhh, thank you!" she said. Tom handed her a "love charm" from his box.

     "It's so pretty," she said. Suddenly, just like Raye and Serena, her pupils got small and her voice got flat and boring.

     "What can I do for you, Master?" she asked.

     "Come with me," he said. She walked right behind him, and the other Slammers walked back with Tom and Mina. When the got to the hideout, they took her down to the dungeon. When Luna, Artemis, Raye, and Serena saw Mina, they called out, "MINA! It's a trap! Wake up and fight them!"

     But Mina could not hear. Buzz, Sissy Boy, Blade, and Tom chained up Mina. Gizmo set up for a game of Poker upstairs. After they had tied her up, Buzz took the charm out of her hands. Mina instantly returned to normal.

     "Where am I?" she asked, "Serena? Raye? Luna? Artemis? What are you doing here? Who are these guys?"

     "They're the Slammers, of course!" said Raye.

     "THE SLAMMERS? How did I get captured? HEY, THEY DON'T LOOK LIKE THE SLAMMERS WE FOUGHT!"

     "They are in disguise, duh!" said Raye, "boy, I'm suck locked up with 2 ditzes and 2 cats! What are my odds of escaping?!?!?"

     "None," said Buzz, as they walked out and shut the door behind them.

     "Hey! One of those 'ditzes' happens to be Sailor Moon!" said Serena.

     "Shut up! I'm tired of all your talk!" said Raye.

    


Chapter 4

     Upstairs, The Slammers were playing Poker.

     "Okay, let's see what ya got," said Buzz. "I got a two pair. Sevens and fives"

     "Three fours," said Blade.

     "Pair of threes," said Sissy Boy.

     "Okay, Gizmo, I get the money this time! Full house! 3 sixes and 2 tens!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

     "Not this time, Tommy Boy. Say hello to..........Mister Ace of Hearts, Mister King of Hearts, Mrs. Queen of Hearts, Mister Jack of Hearts, and Mister 10 of Hearts. ROYAL FLUSH, BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" said Gizmo. Gizmo, once again, got the money.

     "HEY! You cheated!" said Tom.

     "I did not!" said Gizmo.

     "Shut up, you guys! I don't know why I bother to keep pleying with Gizmo, either. But now, let's just get.....what's Jupiter's real name?" said Buzz.

     "Lita," said Gizmo.

     "Yeah, let's go get Lita. And who's gonna do the job........" said Buzz.

     "Ooh! Ooh! Me, me, me!" said Sissy Boy, "I haven't done one yet! Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeese?????????????????????????????"

     "Oh, okay. But you better not screw up! Put the disguise on, Sissy Boy. Ready? Get the box. Okay? Let's go!" said Buzz.

     They went to Lita's house. They hid by the side of the house, in some hedges.

     "Go, Chef Pierre!" said Buzz. Sissy Boy went around to the front of the house. He knocked.

     "Hello?" asked Lita.

     "Hello. I am Chef Pierre from French Quisine, the resteraunt. I heard that you are an excellent cook. Can we trade recipies?" asked Sissy Boy.

     "Sure! Come on in," said Lita. Sissy Boy went in. He handed her a recipe. "Try this one," he said. Lita took the paper. She hurridly got together the things the recipe called for. She followed the directions.

     "Heh heh heh. Little does she know that I will Sprikle it with a powder that will make her do as I please," thouht Sissy Boy.

     "It's ready!" called Lita, "do you want to try it first?" she asked.

     "No, no, you can," said Sissy Boy, "but first, sprinkle this spice on top. It makes it extra good."

     Lita took the bottle. "How much?" she asked.

     "About half of the little bottle," said Sissy Boy. Lita did so. She tried it. "Boy it's good! I'll have to find a very good recipe for you," said Lita. Suddenly, just like the others, her pupils got small and her voice got flat.

     "I will do as you please, Master," she said.

     "Uh, come on outside," he said. Lita came outside with him.

     "Will you do ANYTHING I say?" asked Sissy Boy.

     "Anything you ask," replied Lita.

     "Oh, boy! Bark like a dog!" said Sissy Boy. She did.

     "Act like a chicken!"

     Lita did.

     "Stop clowning around," said Buzz.

     "Oh, allright. Come with me," said Sissy Boy. Lita came with them back to the hideout. When they took Lita down, once again, the other imprisoned scouts tried in vain to make her normal. Nothing worked. Sissy Boy gave her a cup of water and told her to drink, after they had chained her up. Once Sissy Boy did so, the other Slammers stepped far away.

     "Where am I? Hey, you're The Slammers! Why I oughtta-" said Lita, but she never finished. The Slammers had gone up to play, not Poker (they were too tired of Gizmo winning), but Go Fish (Sissy Boy suggested it).

     "Okay, count your pairs," said Buzz, when they had run out of cards. Once again, Gizmo was the champion.

     "I think he cheats," said Tom.

     "I think so, too," said Blade.

     "I don't cheat!" said Gizmo.

     "Just check the computer and see what Mercury....er.....Amy is doing," said Buzz.

     "She's headin' off to bed now," said Gizmo, after seeing what she was doing on the computer.

     "Already?" asked Sissy Boy, "it's only......uh, it's only........what time is it, Merv- oh, Buzz?"

     "It's 9:00," said Buzz.

     "Already?" asked Blade.

     "Yup. Time flies when you're getting your butt kicked in cards," said Buzz.

     "I wasn't getting my butt kicked," said Gizmo.

     "Shut up," said Buzz.

     "How do you plan on giving Amy the dream, Buzz?" asked Sissy Boy.

     "Why, Tom here's gonna use his Nightmare Givin' Gun, of course!" said Buzz.

     "I've got the gun ready, let's go," said Tom.

     "Okay, move out, Slammers!" said Buzz.

     They made their way to Amy's house.

     "Good. Her window's open a crack," said Buzz. Blade opened it up more, carefully. Tom stuck the end of his gun through the window. He pointed it at her and shot. It made no noise, but they knew that it hit her, she immediatly started twisting and turning from the dream.

     "Perfect shot. Let's head back, men," said Buzz. Once they were back at their hideout, they crawled into their sleeping bags and dozed off.

     Meanwhile, Amy was dreaming. In her dream, she was at a carnival with Greg. Suddenly, Greg turned into a monster! He chased her around, until she hid behind a popcorn stand. She transformed into Sailor Mercury. "Greg" soon found her. "Mercury Bubbles......BLAST!" she shouted. Nothing happened. "Mercury Ice Bubbles......BLAST!" she shouted. Nothing happened. "What's going on?" she thought. "Am I saying the wrong phrases?"

     "Double Mercury Ice Storm.........Blast!" she shouted. This time, it worked. Only, "Greg" blocked it with ease. Sailor Mercury did all she could do. She ran. But all kinds of monsters were behind her. Making fun of her. Telling her she's a wimp. Then she saw Sailor Moon, and the other scouts. Luna and Artemis, too.

     "Thank goodness you're here! Help me battle these monsters!" she said. Apparently they didn't hear.

     "Sailor Moon? Mars? Jupiter? Venus?" she asked.

     "Who are they?" they asked and instantly transformed into monsters. Sailor Mercury ran. She began to cry. Was there no escape? Then, everything was dark. It became light again, and she saw that she was no longer at the carnival. There was a table and 5 chairs in front of her. In 4 of the chairs were the Outer Scouts.

    


Chapter 5

     The Outer Scouts were in their normal form. Amy saw that she was, too."Come, sit down," said Setsuna. Amy walked over to the empty chair and sat.

     "What is going on?" she asked. "Why am I here?"

     "We are here to show you where the enemy's hideout is," said Haruka."And to give you confidence," said Michru.

     "And to help you find your hidden-" started Hotaru.

     "Don't give it away!" Haruka cut her off.

     "Give what away?" asked Amy.

     "You will find out when the time is right," said Setsuna.

     "Can I show her now?" asked Hotaru.

     "Okay," said Setsuna.

     "Yipee!" said Hotaru. She took Amy by the hand and led her to the Slammers' hideout, pointing out landmarks along the way so Amy could easily find her way there when she had to fight them. Then Hotaru took her back.

     "I don't think I'm ready....." said Amy, once they were back with the others.

     "You are, though. We have watched you train. Whats more, you will get a little something extra to help you. We cannot tell you what it is now," said Setsuna.

     "A gift?" asked Amy.

     "No. It is already inside of you. You must find it, and know how to use it. But you must believe in yourself, Sailor Mercury. We know you can do it. We have faith in you. Go, now. You must save your friends," said Setsuna.

     "Yes, I will. Goodbye, friends. Thank you," said Amy. The Outer Scouts waved goodbye, and then the dream faded. Soon Amy was awake.

     "I must go as soon as possible. But first I must train a little," said Amy. She got out of bed and began her training.

     Meanwhile, at the hideout of The Slammers......

     "Okay, Mercury's had her dream. Soon she'll try to fight. We must get those scouts ready," said Buzz.

     "I've got the chips so we can control them," said Gizmo.

     "Good. Blade, you go put them on the girls and the cats," said Buzz.

     Blade went down to the dugeon and put the chips on the backs of their clouthes. The girls and cats were still asleep, so he didn't have much trouble. He came back up.

     "What if old what's his name......The Masked Tuxedo or whatever shows up?" asked Gizmo.

     "I think it's The Moonlight Knight we're worried about," said Blade.

     "Naw, it's Darien," said Tom.

     "No way! It's the Mask of the Tuxedo," said Sissy Boy.

     "That sounds like a movie. And besides, we're worried about Prince Darien," said Buzz.

     "No, it's Endymon or whatever," said Gizmo.

     "No it's not!" said Blade.

     "Shut up! Who cares what his character name-of-the-month is! I'm sure Tom knows how to take care of him," said Buzz.

     "He's only got a stupid rose attack, I don't think he's worth turning against Mercury," said Tom.

     "I could lend him a couple a sword," said Blade.

     "Perfect. Tom, load up the Secret Weapon in case he shows up," said Buzz.

     "Okay!" Tom said, and he loaded up the Secret Weapon.

     Meanwhile.....

     "Okay, I'm ready," said Amy. She grabbed her transformation pen and shouted, "Mercury Star Power!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" She raced over to the hideout, following the path that Hotaru had shown her. When she got there, she yelled "Allright, you! Let my friends go!" she shouted at the Slammers. They heard her. Buzz ran down to the dungeon and released the scouts. "Get Mercury!!!!!!!!" he yelled. They transformed and went followed Buzz upstairs. Luna and Artemis came with.

     "Let's get 'er, scouts!" said Luna. They ran outside and soon were face to face with Sailor Mercury.

     "Stop, Sailor Scouts. Do not fight with your friend," said Tuxedo Mask, who somehow, had just appeared.

     "Where'd he come from?" asked Gizmo.

     "Who cares, just get 'im, Tom," said Buzz. Tom went outside, pointed the Secret Weapon gun at him, and shot. A small computer chip shot out, which stuck to his cape.

     "How am I to fight this girl with nothing but my stupid rose attack?" asked Tuxedo Mask.

     "Here," said Blade, stepping outside. "Take this." Blade handed him a sword.

     "Thank you," said Tuxedo Mask, who joined the fight.

     Tom and Blade went inside. Tom and Gizmo sat down to play Poker. Buzz played Duke Nukem on a computer, Blade and Sissy Boy watched the fight from a window.

     "Mercury Bubbles................BLAAAAAAAAAAAAAST!!!" shouted Sailor Mercury. Mercury, who couldn't be seen by the scouts, ran up behind Sailor Moon and ripped off the computer chip. She did the same to the other scouts, Luna and Artemis, and Tux. Mask. They fell to the ground.

     "What's goin' on? I can't see," said Blade.

     "Okay, we're betting all the money we've got," said Tom.

     "Right," said Gizmo.

     Sailor Mercury did not know how she could destroy The Slammers alone. Then she knew. She held her arms out, shoulders length apart, palms facing each other. "Mercury Tidal Wave," she said. A hazy ball of blue light appeared between her hands. She floated about 6 feet off the ground. She put her arms over her head. The blue ball of light gained energy. She closed her eyes and put her face to the sky as she gained energy.

     The bubbles cleared away. Blade and Sissy Boy could now see what was going on.

     "Uh, oh, Buzz? You ain't gonna like this, but, come over here and watch Mercury,'" said Blade.

     "Aw, why? Her puny attacks can't do nothin'!" said Buzz.

     "This is no Bubbles Blast, Buzz!" said Blade. Buzz walked over to the window.

     "Okay. For all the money. I have.....a flush!!!!!!!!!" said Gizmo.

     "Uh, oh," said Buzz, "this does not look good."

     "The Poker game?" asked Sissy Boy.

     "No, Mercury, stupid!" said Buzz.

     "Hahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!! YOU LOSE, GIZMO!!!!!!!!! FEEL THE POWER OF MY ROYAL FLUSH!!!!!!!!!!!! HAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" shouted Tom. He was about to tkae the money when Sailor Mercury yelled "CRASH!" and hurled the ball at the hideout. It hit with all the power of a tidal wave. The Slammers were hurled back, and they hit the brick wall, which collapsed. To put it short, they died.

     Sailor Mercury slowly decended to the ground. She leaned over, putting her hands on her legs for balance, and breathed deeply. The attack had taken a lot of energy. Slowly, the other scouts came to.

     "What happened?" asked Sailor Moon, getting up.

     "MERCURY?!?!? Are you okay?" asked Sailor Jupiter, for Sailor Mercury was now breathing quite hard.

     "Fine," said Sailor Mercury.

     "Did we hurt you?" asked Sailor Moon.

     "No, I saw the whole thing, 'cause I got my energy back before you guys did. She saved us all with a new power," said Sailor Venus.

     "I don't believe it. MERCURY?????????? Save US?????????? You must have been hallucinating," said Sailor Mars.

     "No," said Sailor Mercury, now better, "I did. I got a new power, Mercury Tidal Wave Crash."

     "Where'd ya get it? How did you get powered up?" asked Sailor Moon.

     "From inside of me," said Sailor Mercury. "But a few friends helped me out."

     "Who?" asked Sailor Jupiter.

     Sailor Mercury just chuckeled. "You'll find them.......someday," she said.

     "Come on, let's get home," said Luna.

     "Yeah," said Sailor Moon, "let's get home."

     Sailors Moon, Mars, Jupiter, and Venus walked off. Artemis went with.

     Sailor Mercury just stood there, watching the sunset.

     "Are you coming, Mercury?" asked Luna.

     "Yeah, I'll catch up," said Mercury

     "Okay," said Luna, who ran to catch up with the scouts. Tuxedo Mask came over to her. "Thank you," he said, then disapeared. Now Sailor Mercury was alone. She could faintly hear the scouts chatting as they walked away. Sailor Mercury closed her eyes, and felt the cool breeze. "Thank you, my friends. I shall never forget you. I hope we meet again," she said. She could faintly hear the Outer Scouts saying goodbye. Sailor Mercury opened her eyes. The sunset was so beautiful. She stood there, for a few seconds, just admiring the beauty of it. Then, she heared Sailor Moon calling to her.

     "I'm coming!" Sailor Mercury shouted and ran to catch up. She joined in the conversation, as they walked into the darkness.
