Good-bye, meatballs

"All life begins with the sun and ends with the sun. From it's material we are born, and to it we return when all life has left our bodies. I am an angel of life, and a messenger of death. Guardian Sun. I travel time and dimensions, bearing news of both joy and sadness. I worked alone- until I came upon your dimension...your galaxy...There I met the guardians Moon, Mercury, Mars, Jupiter and Venus, better known to you as the Sailor Scouts..."

Ch.1
A nasty trick

     "Take this you evil monstery creepy ugly thing!" The monster Sailor Jupiter was shouting at easily blocked her attack.
     "Boy, these new ones are tough!" Sailor Venus said as she quickly parried the enemy's feint.
     "Who does this jerk work for anyway?" Sailor Mars asked Luna.
     "I work for no one." The human-sized thing replied in a surprisingly pleasant voice.
     "Who are you?" What do you want?" Inquired Sailor Mercury, stepping back to avoid it's swinging scythe.
     "I- I don't know..." it said, pausing momentarily. "All anyone's ever called me is...monster. As for what I want, I just want to live here in peace." When the monster finished speaking, it knocked all of them to the ground with a single word.
    "How did you do that?" Asked Sailor Jupiter from the ground. Long, white hair flying, the creature turned to her and replied simply:
    "Magic."
    "Where do you come from?" Luna said quietly, from the apparent safety of a tree. The branch on which she was perched broke off and landed in the river.
    "For me to know and you to find out."
    "Blubb blubb blubb!" replied Luna, still in the river.
    "Well, I'm gonna blast you back to wherever you came from!" Sailor Venus said from behind him. "Venus Power Shock, Electrify!" A buzzing noise filled the air, then a flash of light, then nothing. Silence.
    "Ha! What a shot! Got 'im quick, eh?"
    "You think so?"
    "Huh? Who said that?"
    "Monster! Ha ha!" The elfish creature appeared behind Sailor Venus, grabbed her, and disappeared.
    "Minako!!" Sailor Moon shouted.
    "Bring her back or I'll torch you!" Jupiter screamed, looking around and shaking a fist.
    "Like it can hear you, and if it could, why would it bring her back?" Said an unfamiliar, haughty voice. At this, all the Scouts turned around, none wishing to be grabbed as Venus had been.

Ch.2
Let the clichés begin
 
     "I'm Sailor Moon. Who the hell are you?"
     "Finally, she's changed her speech." muttered Mars.
     "I'm Anti-Matter. Sailor Anti-Matter." The dark haired girl replied with a grim grin.
     "Can this story get any more cliche-d?" Wondered Jupiter.
     "SAILOR Anti-Matter? Are you sure? Serenity said nothing of this." Luna looked puzzled, and was slightly irked that she was not informed about this new Scout. Mercury produced her trusty mini-computer from the folds of her skirt. Typing quickly, she opened a program and entered: Search all files for keywords Sailor Anti-Matter.
      "Oh...my...GOD!" She murmured, data in English and otherwise racing across the tiny screen. Pressing her right earring, her VR visor slid in front of her eyes. She could hear it buzzing as it worked to convert the strange info into something remotely English.
      "Is this true? You're from another Galaxy!?!"
      "Well, since I've never seen this place before in my life, I'm guessing I'm not in Kansas anymore."
      "Lord, save us." said Jupiter, under her breath. Who's writing this crap anyway? she thought.
      Mercury ripped off her visor, dropped her computer, and stared at the alien.
* author's note: I don't know why she's surprised, since technically they're all aliens, but NEway....*
      "Are you with us or against us?" Sailor Mars asked, ignoring everything that Mercury had said because she didn't want to be confused this early in the story.
      "All depends on what you fight for." Sailor Anti-Matter said, arms crossed as she hovered above the scouts.
      "On behalf of the Moon, I will right wrongs and punish evil. I am Sailor Moon! I fight for love! And justice!"" Sailor Moon said with her usual gusto, and, like always when she speaks in English, without moving her lips. "What do you fight for?" She asked politely, upon realizing that all about her were staring.
      "My life."
      "Hmm....minor differences in values and principals and morals...what the heck. What's your power?"
      "Power? I can fly, like all cartoons. I'm pretty handy with a sword."
      "What's with your name?"
      "Anti-Matter? I can't tell you, really."
      "Why not?" Everyone asked, doing that spooky I-knew-you-were-gonna-say-that-so- I- said-it-too thing that they do every episode.
      "I-I-...just can't...there's a rule in section 23 code 4 of the book on How to be a Mysterious Villain. If you explain your name, your membership is evoked or something. Besides, I really can't tell you because all villain names are chosen randomly from guest books around the world, so I have no idea what my name means..."
      "Heh heh heh...I'm gonna think twice next time I sign a guest book!" said Sailor Moon.
      "I pity the guy who got Elvis Priestly!" Jupiter whispered to Mars, as they both burst out laughing.
      "You mean SAILOR Elvis Prestly!" Mars whispered back, between giggles.
      "Sailor! There's something I can tell you!"
      "Huh?!?" said everyone-at-once again.
      "Sailor." Anti-Matter explained quickly. "I'm not really a Sailor Scout. In my world, I am Guardian Anti-Matter. I switched to Sailor when I realized that's what they call you here."
      "Your world...how did you get here?" Sailor Mercury asked.
      Sailor Anti-Matter shrugged. "Dunno. Same way that monster did, I guess."
      "You think he'll take Venus there?" Sailor Mars asked, serious once more.
      "Sailor Venus! I forgot all about her! We've gotta go find her!" Sailor Moon screeched.
      "Oh, I'm afraid you won't be going anywhere." Sailor Anti-Matter said ominously.
      "Huh?" All the scouts reply, in clone fashion once more.
      "Mwa ha ha!" *A.N.: Square fans are all TOO familiar with this laugh* A ball of dark energy consumed the scouts, Anti-Matter's laughter ringing in their unconscious ears.
      Ch.3
Guardian Sun
(No more clichés, I swear *g*)
      They awoke in a blood-red nothingness. Above, below,  all around. Just red. No ground, no sky, they hovered there.
      "Uhh..." numerous ummms and groans came from the Scouts.
      Ignoring the pain, Sailor Jupiter opened her eyes slowly. She looked down, only to find herself held captive in the same kind of device Game Machine Joe had used...but she couldn't see where or what it was attached to.
      The others found themselves in similar predicaments, all bound by vices and floating upright. Well, what they thought was upright. It could have been any direction.
      With some difficulty, Sailor Moon turned her head. The eerie colour was all she could see, besides the scouts and- she squinted- A red haired girl in a costume similar to theirs was talking to the one that had brought them here. She couldn't hear what they were saying. With a wry grin, she realized how much they looked like Michiru and Hotaru...but that couldn't be, for many reasons, the most obvious being Michiru's hair wasn't red.
       Moaning, she closed her eyes and let her head flop back. Usually when she did that, her long blond hair brushed against her knees. But she felt nothing! Shaking her head vigorously, Sailor Moon looked for her beloved pig tails. They were gone!
       "Where's my hair?!?" she screeched, panicking for the first time today.
