Disclaimer; I do not own Sailor Moon, though I own a lot 
of her merchandise.  Seriously, I had a birthday, and 
all I got was Sailor Moon stuff!  A lunchbox, a tiny SM 
with snap on clothes, SM deck of cards, and a SM pen.
I'm 15 too, but I love it all!  
Am I predictable, or what?  I do have other SM things, 
like SM trading cards, #8 manga(japanese), a manga by 
Mixx, #3, and a bunch of pictures I printed, a little 
notebook with with pictures and stuff, then some stationary 
where they spelled it Mamoru Chijba!!!  Can you believe 
that?also a poster.  AND, a big book of it, with little CD's that 
play music when you turn each page.  
Okay, enough of my pathetic little collection....


The story is called Dimension Warp, which you won't understand 
till you get to the end.  It's sort of like the twilight zone, okay?
And I know this isn't the most original story idea, but I tried 
to make a original story out of a tired, and used idea.
Disclaimer, Sailor Moon doesn't belong to me.
Also, if you like happy story's, or even happy endings, 
please don't read this and flame me.  This is a very 
depressing series, though interesting.




Dimension #1  Sailor Earth


	A young, golden haired woman leaned over her dark haired 
lover.  She cradled his head in her lap, both were in the middle of 
the street.  Only the moonlight and streetlight shined down on them, 
limiting eyesight.  But the woman knew her lover's face better than 
her own, and she lovingly traced his jawline.  Her eyes were moist, 
and luminious.
	"I couldn't save you."  Her voice trembled.  He shook his 
head, "You couldn't do anything.  You cannot blame yourself.  
Besides, I just wish I could see her again."
"Her?"  Her voice began to tremble more.  He nodded, "My girlfriend.  
I wish I could say goodbye to her, and tell her I love her."
"I'm sure she knows."  The woman's voice was barely a more than 
a whisper, trying to control the trembling.  He grinned lightly, 
though pain shone in his eyes.  "Well, we've been through a lot, 
at least I'm not dying...alone.  I still wish she was here, though."
"Listen, I'm not only the girl who saves you I'm..."  She looked 
back down, his head had rolled to the side.  Her eyes watered 
anew, and her lips began to tremble.  "really the woman you 
love."  She whispered, and she cradled him to her as well as 
she could.  Not one tear fell from her blue eyes, but the pain 
was so clear on her flawless features.


	Usagi smiled at her friends, "...so the woman said to the 
boyscout, I know you were the boyscout because..."  Mamoru 
walked in, and Usagi blushed, "you were the one who helped me 
across the street."  Rei giggled, "That's not the way I heard it."  
Usagi made a face at Rei, "Well, neither me or Mamoru want to 
hear it."  Rei looked up, "Oops."
	Mamoru grinned, "Well, despite the awkward entrance, 
I've got some news.  I applied for a college resident."
"College resident?"  Usagi asked quickly.  Mamoru smiled down 
at her, "Well, it's a unfortunate person who can't afford boarding, 
and needs a place for those first years in college.  I know how 
hard it was for me to find boarding, so I thought I'd make it easier."
"Well, as long as it's not a girl."  Usagi muttered.  Mamoru mussed 
up her hair, "I need the extra  money, and the person needs 
somewhere to board."
"Well, as long as you don't like her better than me."  Usagi 
said rebelliously.
"How do you know that it won't be a guy...that Mamoru likes 
better?"  Minako teased.  Usagi threw a pillow at her.
"C'mon now," Mamoru argued, half because he wanted Usagi to 
not feel threatened, half because of what Minako said, "it can be 
from anywhere, all the colleges get these messages, all over the 
nation.  You could touch up on your English."  He looked pointedly 
at Minako, who threw a pillow at him.  Soon pillows were flying 
everywhere.


	Honoria walked home, her step slow and agonizing.  She 
just lost her true love, and he didn't even know she was there.  He 
died thinking she wasn't there.  Shaking off the thought, she jogged 
a little faster.  A black, shiny car was zooming down the street, 
almost out of control, and nearly hit her.  "Crazy damn driver!!"  She 
screamed.  A soft mew caught her attention.  Her eyes filled with 
horror as she looked over across the street, by the other sidewalk.  
A black, small figure was crumpled.  "Eclipse!"  She screamed.
	Running to her feline companion, she shook her head.  
"Oh no, no, they got you too.  The low life dirty bastards.  I hope 
they die and rot."  Eclipse looked up, a crescent moon glistened 
on his forehead.  Again, she held her tears in check.  She vowed 
she would never cry, never ever let a tear drop.  She always may 
have been flighty and silly, but she had never cried.
	If she didn't have her family here, she would leave.  Maybe 
she still would, her family would be worried, but they would 
understand.  Nodding to herself, she decided to leave the next 
day, but secretly.  If 'they' wanted to hound her, and follow her 
every move, she'd go where they could rumble.  They were the 
people who followed her, who watched her every move.  It started 
out as her fighting youmas, thwarting the bad guys plan as usual.  
	When it became personal, is when she attacked a female 
youma, the mother of all youma.  As she vanquished the close to 
helpless youma, the very air around her seemed to darken, and 
she saw the face of evil.  He appeared in front of her, he was what 
other girls called drop dead gorgeous, but she looked into his eyes, 
and saw his black soul.  But there was a price to pay for looking 
into his eyes and seeing his soul; he looked into hers, and knew.  
	They knew everything about each other, she saw things 
he never realized himself, and he saw her love, her life, and her 
identity.  
	Ever since then, little things have happened to make her 
life horrible, and now huge things that nearly tore her world apart.  
Though, remembering all the strange happenings in Tokyo, Japan, 
she grinned.  She also saw a ad for a boarder who was going to 
college.  She could go there and fight them till the very land collapsed.
"I've got all the time in the world."  She muttered, pleased with 
herself, and began to head on home.  


	Minako looked at her three friends, "We've got to make 
this anniversery special.  They have been together for so many 
years now,and neither have died in a while."  The three giggling 
girls nodded, "It has to be absolutely perfect."  Makoto agreed.
"Well, we have two months to prepare."  Ami said logically.  
Minako eye's glowed happily, "I hope that's enough time to 
prepare."
"Well, nothing could possibly go wrong."  Rei laughed, and 
all the girls started to plan.

	Usagi sat around the table with her family, and Shingo 
made a face at her.  She stuck out her tongue at him, and he 
kicked her under the table.  "Why you little..."  She paused and 
looked at their parents, "Did you know what Shingo was doing 
yesterday?"  She kicked him back.  He kicked her hard, "You 
know that guy that Usagi's 'friend' has been seeing?"  
	Usagi smiled sweetly at Shingo, "You little angel."  
Shingo smirked at her, and her face burned in humiliation.  
"Family's."  She muttered negatively.


	Honoria began to skip, "To be home again, with my 
wonderful family."  She said happily.  Her skip became bouncier 
when she remembered her aunts and uncles would be over, with 
all her little adorable cousins.  Her step became slower when she 
thought how quickly she must leave them.
	As she got nearer, she saw a crowd around the house, 
and knew something was wrong.  The smell of burning came to 
her, and instantly images of fire came to her mind.  Running as 
fast as she could, she pushed her away through the crowd.  Nothing 
was there.  It was like a house was never there, all that was left 
was a big black mark.
	A small voice came from behind, "It came from nowhere, 
like a big black fiery ball in the sky.  No one got out, I'm so sorry."  
Honoria turned and looked at the speaker, a auburn haired girl, 
and Honoria grabbed her collar.  "No one got out?"  The girl 
shook her head.  Honoria threw her best friend, and childhood 
chum, several yards away, colliding with numerous bystanders.
	Honoria ran to the middle of the blackened earth, and 
twirled around, looking at her former house's ashes.  She lifted 
her head, and screamed her shock and outrage to the world.


	Usagi looked dourly at the letter in Mamoru's hand.  
"You're picking a girl?"  Mamoru nodded, "Read the letter, 
Usako."  Usagi began to read.

'Dear Kind Chiba-san,
	I am an American, and I wish to attend a college in Tokyo, 
your home residence.  I should have went to college a few years ago, 
but personal matters kept me from it.  Now they are gone, and I wish 
to see the world.  I have little money, and no way to pay a more 
expensive rent, so please accept me.  I have good housekeeping 
skills, and cooking skills if it lowers the rent in any way.  I'm an 
orphan, so please help.
	I speak fluent Japanese, so please excuse this letter 
being in English.  Thank you for your time and concern.
Yours, 
Honoria Tanforan'

	Usagi sighed, "Well, as long as you don't find her more 
attractive."  Mamoru chuckled, "My sweetest Usako."
"I'm your only Usako."  She grinned, and he held up the letter, 
"You never know."  She gasped in mock hurt, and he leaned 
closer.  "You know you're the only one for me...  Besides, 
maybe her parents died at a young age too.  We've got to 
help her."  Usagi pushed him away, grinning, "You ruined 
the mood."


	Honoria read the letter again, she was accepted.  She 
held her ticket in her other hand, and smiled.  "One way trip to 
Tokyo for me, one way trip to Hell for the scum who did this to 
me.  We will paint the town red, one way or the other."






	Usagi and Mamoru sat at the airport waiting for Honoria's 
plane to land, it was 4 in the morning.  Usagi was half asleep.  It 
was a hour late, but Mamoru assured Usagi that happened.
"Excuse me?"  A voice came from behind.  They both turned, but 
it was only the guy behind the counter of the plane they were 
waiting for.  "Since you two are practically the only ones waiting 
for the plane from America, I thought you'd like to know that the 
plane will be delayed due to an unusual disturbance."
"Unusual disturbance?"  They both asked, and looked at each 
other.  The little man shrugged, "The pilot describes it as if 
something is trying to drive them off course."  Then he left back 
to behind his desk.  Usagi watched his retreating back, and 
looked at Mamoru with that familiar fear in her eyes.  He tried to 
comfort her, "Look, I'm absolutely positive this has nothing to do 
with your past."
	Usagi nodded, but she looked doubtful.  He hugged her, 
and after a moment's hesitation, she squeezed back, so hard 
that his breath was nearly forced from his lungs.


	Honoria finaly got to sit in her chair, she had vanquished 
the wind youma that plagued her plane.  The pilot was so shook 
up, she actually had to go to the cockpit, and say a few phrases, 
and strike some typical poses to calm him down.  
	Muttering something about feeling like a trained elephant, 
she tossed up some airline peanuts and caught them in her mouth.  
Without Eclipse, her mentor, everything she did as a Senshi felt 
uncreative and rather stupid.  Eclipse and she were a team, they 
thrived off of each other, rose to new heights of battle techniques.  
Sometimes, they just knew each other thoughts, a glance 
between them could mean a whole new plan.  
	She didn't even have a picture of him.  The only thing 
left she had to cherish was mamories, his flashing blue eyes, 
feline humor, and deep, soothing voice.
	She twirled a short strand of blonde hair around her 
finger, and looked in a small compact.  Her bangs hung past 
her eyes, frequently getting in the way.  Her boyfriend often 
told her not to cover her azure blue eyes, but she now disliked 
her eyes.  They were sparkly, and innocent, everything she 
no longer felt.


	Usagi saw the plane first, and didn't say anything.  Mamoru 
saw the plane, and her baleful look.  "Usako, don't sulk."
"Fine."  She said, still unpleasantly.  Mamoru chuckled and started 
toward where the passengers were exiting.  As soon as she 
stepped from the doorway, he knew it had to be her.  She had 
shoulder length golden hair, and a delicate pair of glasses and 
long bangs hid her blue eyes.  Mamoru stopped cold in his 
tracks, the uncanny resemblance to Usagi was undeniable.  
Both even had bright, wide blue eyes, but Honoria had a 
slight frown on her pink lips.
"Chiba-san, I presume?  She asked in almost fluent Japanese.  
Her speech was slightly halted, but that was barely noticable.
	He nodded and took her hand, and she had a soft grip, 
seeming all feminine.  But a hidden glint in her eyes belied that 
statement.  "Of course.  You must be Honoria."  She nodded, 
carefully studying him.  "This is what it's like to see destiny."  
She murmured.


	Honoria asw the suprised look in the girlfriend's eyes, but 
she couldn't help herself.  As their hands touched, she felt a familiar 
shock go through her, as if she should know him, used to know 
him even.  The girlfriend smiled and shook her hand, and the 
feeling came back.  It wasn't any stronger, but it felt more 
clarified.  Happiness poured from the girl like a overeager 
puppy playing with a new companion.  
	Wincing slightly, she almost took a step back.  Friendliness 
was so far away from her mind, she could only force a faint grin.  
"Tsukino Usagi, you must be.  He mentioned you in his second 
letter, saying how jealous you were."  Mamoru laughed easily, 
small lines crinkling around his eyes.  Honoria's mood darkened, 
her lover's eyes used to have little laugh lines around them too.
	Honoria realized she had to tell them something soon, 
she wouldn't be going to college as they most likely expected.  
Sighing, she again brushed her bangs from her eyes, and they 
fell right back into place.  She looked Usagi over again, and 
knew there was a slight resemblance.  Usagi, however, was 
more delicate, and seemed more slender than her.  Honoria 
had to admit, she was a little more curvy than Usagi, but she'd 
kill for the slender legs.  
	Smiling disarmingly, she took both of their arms, "So, 
when are we going to see this cool bachelorette pad?"  Mamoru 
laughed, then saw Usagi's look, and shook his head.  Honoria's 
mouth twisted into a wry smile.


	Usagi had to admit, Honoria was a perfect lady.  No 
advances toward Mamoru at all, not that she had expected any 
from Honoria.  There was something familiar about Honoria, but 
the only thing she could think of was she's blonde.  Though 
Mamoru always acted weird when they were both in the same 
room; he kept looking back and forth, as if puzzled.  Usagi 
admitted to a resemblance with Honoria, but Honoria had so 
much more to fill out her clothes, not that Usagi minded being 
slender.  Honoria's legs seemed a bit more muscular, more 
rounded, Usagi wouldn't mind having legs like those.
	Yawning, she realized how late it was, and she tried 
to untangle herself from Mamoru's arms without waking him.  He 
had fell asleep watching the movie with her, and she was finally 
aware, Honoria hadn't come home yet.  It had been a week since 
she moved in, but she hadn't stayed out this late.


	Honoria sneered at her foe, a male youma with the face 
only a mother could love.  She told him so too, and when he 
cackled, she remarked casually, "Too bad I killed her."  He 
went berserk then, and that was what Honoria had waited for.
"You will die, Sailor Earth!!"  He screamed.
	Honoria dodged out of the way of his foolhardy attack.  
Baring her teeth, she grimace in the form of a smile, "She was 
pregnant with your evil sibling, she just needed energy to 
keep her baby alive.  I slit through her stomach and laughed."  
His eyes burned red, and he flew at her.  She jumped away 
at the very possible last second, risking impalement.
		She turned and faced the panting, sweaty 
youma, and whispered, "Wind Storm!"  A wind funnel flew 
from her fingers, and wrapped around him, trapping him, 
squeezing.  Then a wind dagger formed into her hands, and 
she threw it at him.  As soon as it disappeared into the wind, 
the wind died down.  The youma fell forward, a knife between 
his eyes.
	She didn't feel good killing him, but only for two 
reasons, first, Eclipse wasn't there.  Second, she didn't really 
kill the mother youma that way, the youma was with evil 
spawn in her stomach, but the youma attacked her and the 
dagger found its way between her eyes too.  Not through the 
stomach, she wasn't cruel, though she has killed numerous 
monsters.  A sudden pain shot through her back, and she 
fell forward.
	Three especially big youmas stood there, leering.  
"Well Sailor Earth, hope you are ready to die."  They had 
on loincloths and bandanas, the sign of a battle youma, 
who has fought many battles.
"I was born ready!"  She hissed, and jumped right between 
them.  They were suprised, they hadn't expected her to 
be so direct.  "Usually, I make sure I don't die, it's a queer 
habit of mine." She muttered ironically.
	Sailor Earth jumped on the biggest one, choking 
him.  She felt her fingernails slicing into the flesh, and she 
ripped the flesh off.  He choked to death on his own blood 
flowing down his throat.  She  flipped off him and swerved 
to meet the other youma, who was still looking at his 
fallen partner.  She leapt into the air, catching his 
collarbone with her foot.  His chestal cavity collapsed, 
and he choked to death with blood in his lungs.  She 
turned to the third.
"Listen, if you don't leave me alone, I will make sure you 
bleed farther down, eliminating your reason to wear a 
loincloth."  He took a step back, so she continued, 
"Tell your master that, tell him I will kill him the way 
I killed these buffoons."  He disappeared without so 
much as a nod, but she could see the fear in his eyes.
	Sailor Earth heard a clapping from behind, 
and she whirled, holding her bloody hands in a defensive 
position.  It was a girl with a fuku like hers, only orange.  
She had light blonde hair, and light blue eyes.  "You 
don't care if you die or not."  She said simply.  Sailor 
Earth felt a mild feeling of shock run through her 
brain, but said simply, "Why should I?"
"Well, you are a protector of the innocent, you have 
to live for them."  She stiffened.  Sailor Earth laughed, 
"I fight the enemy not for other innocents.  The enemy has...
wronged too many people."  Sailor Earth had stumbled 
over the last part, but she still had the same look on 
her face.  "Besides," She started slyly, "they have you 
now, don't they?"  
"My name is Sailor Venus,and they have had me for a 
long time."  She said, still stiffly.
'Well, Sailor Venus, I'm Sailor Earth, and these are my 
people.  But you are welcome to protect them."  With 
that and a insincere smile, she jumped away, landing 
over the fence, and running back to Mamoru's place.
	As Honoria opened the door, she saw Mamoru 
asleep on the couch, and smiled softly.  Then she 
went to her room, and turned on the light.  Usagi was sitting on her 
bed.  She jumped, and smoothed down her hair, in case of any 
sign of her secret identity.
"You were awful late."  She noted.  Honoria grinned unpleasantly.  
"First, you are not my keeper, second, you yourself are here awful 
late."  Usagi's face burned red, and Honoria began to pull some 
night clothes from her drawers, "Now get out, or you'll stay here 
for the rest of the night."  She forced a slight wiggle of the 
eyebrows at Usagi, and Usagi stood, her spine rigid.  "No thank 
you, I will retire to my own house now."
"Have it your way odango."  Honoria snickered.  Usagi's face got 
brighter, and she stomped out.  Honoria sighed, 'There was 
something about Usagi that rubbed her the wrong way.  Maybe 
it was the eagerness, or maybe the fact she seemed like she 
would cry easily.'  Honoria couldn't stand crying, something in 
her biological makeup hated the helplessness it takes to cry.

	Honoria awoke with a jerk, and wiped the sweat off her 
brow.  "I need to get a fan in here."  she muttered.  She had a 
oddest dream, all she could see was swirling colors, swirling 
around her, playing along her skin, tickling.  The colors 
shimmered and she slowly fell...
	She ran a nervous hand through her hair, and let out 
a slow breath, and breathed in and out, slowly.  She flopped 
back down, and sighed, loking up at the ceiling.
	Honoria met Usagi's friends, who were basically nice, 
and friendly.  It made her think of her best friend back in 
America, the one she threw into the crowd.  Wincing, she 
wondered if she was okay, and hoped she wasn't too mad.  
Honoria didn't get to see her before she left, and it hurt so 
much to be without her best bud.  She grinned slightly, if 
there was one thing she knew about Gwen, she wouldn't 
give up till she knew where Honoria was.  It was sort of too 
bad she was all the way in Tokyo, and Gwen in America.


	Gwen looked at her watch, and looked back up at 
the door.  She looked down angrily and looked back up, 
then banged on the door.  "I know you're in there, damnit!!"  
She yelled, then kicked the door.  Growling, she turned 
around to leave,and bumped into something rather hard and 
unyeilding.  She looked up, "Oh hi."  He nodded.
	"And you're assaulting my door why?"  He asked.  
Gwen looked downward, then up quickly, as if denying the 
moment of uncertainty.  "Look, I used to go to school with 
this one girl, and I have reason to believe she is boarding here."  
Gwen clutched the cut-out ad for a boarder in her pocket that 
she had found in Honoria's room.
	Gwen looked up at the tall male, Mamoru, as the 
ad said, and felt hot tears start to come up, she didn't 
come this far to be wrong.  Stubbornly blinking them back, 
she glared into his handsome face, trying to make herself 
taller.  Considering her slight figure, that was a excedingly 
difficult feat.
"Honoria?"  He asked.  One question, one simple question, 
and her world rose.  A grateful lump rose into her throat,and 
the tears began to flow loosely.  "Thank God!"  She said, 
lips trembling, and burst into tears.  He looked so suprised, 
she had to giggle, even through her tears.
"Come inside."  He said, not really a question, or a demand, 
just a invintation he knew she wouldn't refuse.
"Is she....?"  Gwen started and Mamoru shook his head softly.
"Oh, where are my manners?  My name is Gwen Patterson, 
and I'm Honoria's best friend.  She never said goodbye, heh, 
so I'm here to give her a chance to."  Mamoru blinked, the fast 
English had him scrambling to figure out what the red-haired 
girl was saying.  Gwen, was her name, Honoria and Gwen.  
Somehow that seemed so fitting.  Something about the look 
in Gwen's eye caught his eye, and he turned to her.
"She never said...goodbye?"  He asked.  She shook her head, 
"Nah, can you believe the impertinence?  Anyway, let me 
show you some awesome pictures of this her."  Mamoru 
nodded slowly, and smiled.  She pulled out a mini-album, 
and sat down on the couch.
	"Look at this one, we looked so funny!"  She trilled, 
and he looked at a picture of Gwen, with shorter hair, grinning 
widely.  Honoria had a little bit of ice cream on her nose, and 
was looking at her offending sweet cross eyed, trying to lick 
it off.  
	Mamoru laughed loudly, it was funny, then he had the 
oddest thought.  "She's always like this?"  
"Oh yeah, she is the most fun, bright person."  Gwen nodded 
happily.  She turned the page, and it showed Honoria kissing 
the cheek of a smiling guy.  He had black hair, slightly tousled, 
and dancing green eyes.  Honoria looked so happy, and that 
special look was in her eye, like when Usagi looked at him.
	"Who is this?"  He asked, looking at the picture 
strangely.  "Rowdon.  Ain't he a cutie?  They used to be the 
most cute item, and then..."  Her voice trailed off, and she 
looked away.  "He died the day before Honoria left."  She 
looked at him sharply, "But you can't tell anyone!  Nobody, 
because Honoria hates pity and tears.  Both are things she 
feels people can't control, and Honoria likes being in control 
of herself.  When she found out about the loss of...the one 
she loved so dearly, she literally picked me up and threw me.  
I should have been mad, but she was in so much pain, and she 
is my best friend.  I believe she is my soul friend."
"Soul friend?"  Mamoru asked.
"Yes, like a soul mate, but a soul friend is someone who you 
used to know, say in the past life.  Maybe not the outerself, 
but as you look into their eyes, you recognize their soul."  
She sighed. "Honoria and Rowdon were truly soul mates, there 
was nothing they could say without the other to finish the 
other's sentence.  Though somehow, I never felt excluded, 
Honoria was that kind of giving person."
	Mamoru felt Honoria sounding like Usagi, more and 
more every second.  Something told him that Gwen was 
right, Honoria and her probably did know each other, look 
at Usagi and her senshi.
"My girlfriend and me, we are soul mates.  There is only 
word for it."  He smiled, then his heart stopped when she 
flipped the page.
"May I borrow this picture?"  He asked Gwen.  She nodded, 
and held it out to him.  He grabbed it, and began to leave, but 
when he was almost out the door, he turned.  "Gwen, stay 
here.  I'll be back soon, thanks.


	Mamoru ran into the Rei's temple, and the five girls 
jumped up, and looked at him, then each other, and giggled.  
Mamoru grinned at them nervously, and fidgeted with the 
picture.  He motioned for them to sit down, "Ladies, I've got 
something to show you, it's very important."
"What is it Mamo-chan?"  Usagi asked, concerned.  She sat 
next to him, and the other girls sat around the small table.
	Mamoru held out the picture, and the girls passed it 
around, making comments.
"Wow, she looks so pretty!  That huge smile!"  Makoto 
exclaimed, who got it first.
"Is this really Honoria?"  Minako gasped, and passed it 
to Rei, who said, "This can't be the same sullen, moody 
girl we've seen."  She passed it to Ami, "She does usually 
look pensive.  This appears to have been not too long ago, 
if you note her age and hairstyle."
	Usagi grabbed it, "You're right, look at that.  This is 
weird, I wonder what changed her."  Mamoru sighed, and 
grabbed the picture, "Look at the cat."  Ami looked at it 
again, "Umm, cute cat too."
"The crescent moon on it's forehead."  He sighed.  All the 
girl's faces turned red, "Hai, I noticed that."  Usagi muttered.  
Mamoru stared at them, "You know, I noticed it's hard to 
notice things like these.  It's like when I never could make 
the connection between the obvious similiarity's of your 
normal selfs, and your alter egos."
"Maybe it's sort of magic that prevents even the most 
smart of people to recognize the obvious, like a mental 
protection from people finding out our identity."  Ami 
concluded.  Everybody nodded, and Luna jumped up on 
the table, and stared at the picture.  "I wish I could say I 
remember him.  Artemis, come look at this."  Artemis 
jumped up, and looked over the picture.  "I'm afraid it 
doesn't raise any memory's either."
"Well, I don't suppose there are many cats with gold 
crescent moons on their foreheads that are normal!"  Usagi 
snapped, irritated..  Luna turned to her pupil angrily, "Well, 
try asking Honoria about her cat, for goodness sake."`
"You know, if that cat is like you both, then it was no 
coincedence that Honoria came to us.  But where is 
the cat?"  Mamoru wondered.
"Maybe it isn't like that."  Artemis said.  Everybody turned 
to him, "I stood with a young couple while waiting for 
Minako to come along.  Luna, didn't you stay with 
somebody while waiting for Sailor Moon?"  Luna 
nodded.  "This teenage girl, but---"
"Exactly.  And if you haven't noticed, this cat isn't 
with her now.  Maybe he found someone the person 
he was looking for."
"Maybe Honoria knows who has her cat now."  Luna .
"Maybe he ran off when he found her, like we did."  Artemis 
said, raising a eyebrow as well as a cat can.  Luna nodded, 
"You're probably right."
"A disturbance near our school!" Ami cried out, looking at 
her computer.  Everybody rose at once, and left.  Minako 
paused, thinking for a minute.  'That girl...' she thought, 
then ran after the rest.


	Sailor Earth circled the huge monster, and looked 
with disgust at the huge blue tentacles, which were whipping 
around wildly.  One swung at her, and she leapt out of the 
way.  Another flew toward her, and she pulled out her sword 
dagger, and sliced right through it.
	Laughing carelessly, she jumped on it, and recklessly 
dodged out of the tentacle's way.   Sailor Earth ran to the 
youma, and took out her wind dagger.  Slashing at it, she 
moved closer, slashing and getting nearer.
	Dark streams of blood hit her as she began to slice 
more into his tentacles.  She smiled, and saw a tentacle flying 
toward her.  She made no move to dodge, but a hand yanked 
her out of the way.  A strong arm wrapped around her waist.  
She came face to face with him again, the man who controls 
these monsters, the one who looked into her eyes, and her 
him.
	"You!  Have you come to finish me off?  If so, do it 
quickly!"  Sailor Earth cried out bravely.  He shook his head, 
slightly mussing the dark-gold hair that hung long, silky, and 
straight around his head.  His eyes were a chocolate brown, 
which were lively, laughing, reckless eyes.  They're usually 
are blazing with supressed anger, still somewhat reckless, 
and laughing, yet right now they were mocking, also the 
closest to gentle they have ever come.  His face was a 
finely structured, sensitive face that managed to look 
reckless, and thoughtful.
	His beauty seemed to mock her, her knowing how 
evil he truly was.  "Come to grace us with your presence, 
then?"  He grinned lazily, and he let her go.  "Sailor Earth, 
so suspiicious, are we?  Like I can't finish you off when I feel 
like it."
"But you wouldn't.  You forget, I know what makes you tick.  
Even if you could finish me anytime you pleased, which you 
can't, who would make life hard for you?  Who would give 
your plans that extra 'oomph' you value if nobody was there 
to compete with you?  You need me, you need someone 
who challenges you, to keep you from becoming lazy."
"Pretty speech for someone is such a vulnerable position." 
he noted wryly.  Sailor Earth realized he had manipulated 
her attention so directly that she hadn't realized they were 
farther away from the monster, and more in a secluded 
area.
"Are you coming onto me?"  She asked simply.  He chuckled 
deeply, "Is that a ploy to make me angry, or flustered?"
"No."  she said, "Seeing where your intentions lie."  He took 
a step closer,"Sailor Earth, maybe I like the chase, the 
challenge."  Sailor Earth's eyes narrowed, her chin jutted 
out stubbornly.  "Maybe you killed the man I loved."  For a 
moment, his whole face was contorted in fury, then he flashed 
a disturbing smile, then that too disappeared as fast as both 
came.
"Your little friend is coming, I best be off."  He let her go, and 
jumped onto the next building.  Sailor Earth walked back over 
to the youma numbly, and saw Sailor Venus fighting it.
"Venus Love me chain!"  She called out, and a golden heart 
chain wrapped around the youma, making it nearly imprisoned.  
"Wind Storm!"  She yelled, and a wind funnel flew from her 
fingers, and wrapped around him.
	A shout came from behind her, and Sailor Earth fell 
to the side, clutching her arm.  She saw the youma dissapate, 
and she looked up to a girl, with a pink and yellow fuku, and 
long, long golden tresses.  On top of her head, was two buns, 
they looked like odangos.  Slightly amused, but she got up.  
"Hey, fry my arm, why don't you?"
"Gomen!"  She said, "Do you want me to check that for you?  
Oh, Sailor Mercury is going to become a doctor!"  She shoved 
a blue hair, blue clad girl forward, and Sailor Earth stepped 
back, "No thank you, I'd rather have leeches suck on it."
	Sailor Earth began to leave, but Sailor Venus stopped 
her.  "Wait. you need someone to look at that." She whispered.  
She pressed something in Honoria's hand. and stepped aside.  
Sailor Earth turned to her, unsure.  Venus nodded, "Go on, 
Sailor Earth."  Nodding back, she ran off.
"Sailor Venus?"  The rest of the senshi asked.  Sailor Venus 
turned, ready to avoid all questions, though she had no idea 
why she was defending her.


	Sailor Earth slowly transformed back to Honoria, and 
walked to Mamoru's apartment, and opened it with her key.  
She looked around, and jumped.
"Gwen!  What are you doing here?"  She cried out.  Gwen 
walked forward, and hugged her.
"Thought you could get away?  I don't think so."  She said 
affectionately.  Honoria pushed her away, "What are you 
doing here?'
"I'm here to find you."  Gwen said simply.  Honoria looked 
helplessly at her, 'How could I bring my best friend into 
trouble?'  She thought, then said, "You have to leave right 
away!  Please!"
"Why?  I thought we were best buds."  Gwen asked, 
confused.  She turned to Gwen, "Look, I'm trying to start 
over, okay?  Can't you leave?"
"I know you've lost everyone else important to you, but you 
don't have to push me away to, I'm important to you 
too!"  Gwen cried out.  Honoria shook her head, "Look, 
maybe you aren't that important to me as you think."  Gwen 
gasped, and ran out.
	It was on the tip of Honoria's tongue to tell her that 
someone was after her, and she can't tell her who, but then 
that would be too easy.  "I guess me and him are a little 
alike.  We both want the hard way."  Honoria muttered.  
She and him were a little too much alike for comfort.  That's 
what was wrong with her, she realized.  She had looked into 
his very core,and she was starting to become like him.
	Somehow, she didn't believe herself, though.  Maybe 
she was already like this, maybe...No!!  She shook her head, 
she can't let him corrupt her, that's what he wanted.  She 
shook her head frantically, and her breath came faster.  She 
tried to picture her love, Rowdon, his carefree grin, sparkling 
green eyes, but it kept being replaced with liquid brown eyes, 
dangerously flashing, yet mocking her, dancing as if amused.  
	Honoria felt her whole foundation rock, and blue eyes 
flashed to her.  "Eclipse!"  She trilled happily, and remembered 
his dear, feline ways, and how well they worked together.  A memory 
bubble floated to her, "Luna and Artemis?"  She wondered.


	Luna had tried to spy on Honoria as much as she 
could, but Honoria was so sneaky, she could slip away from 
her sharp surveillence, and come back just as undetected.  
Luna leapt into her open window, and crawled under the bed.  
This time, she won't get away so fastly.  Besides, this was 
a good way to snoop.  As Honoria came in, Luna crept, and 
made sure she quietly breathed.  All she saw was slippered 
feet go up--and not go back down.  Confused, she crept just a 
little closer to the edge.
	Two hands flashed under, and grabbed her.  Luna 
found herself in the grasp of a upside down Honoria.  "Luna?"  
She cried out, then her eyes narrowed, "Luna."  Luna found 
herself wondering how Honoria was upside down, the bed 
was a few feet away.  Luna tried to look up, but was getting 
queasy.  
	Honoria righted herself, and looked at Luna, "What 
are you doing here?  May I ask?"  Luna stared back and 
meowed.  "Don't play stupid with me, I've seen you talking."  
Luna looked at Honoria, and tried to figure if she was bluffing.  
But then, what kind of person would ask a cat if she could 
talk if they haven't seen her talk?  
"When?"  Luna asked.  Honoria nearly dropped her, "You 
can talk!"  She cried out, and gulped nervously.  Luna sighed 
as well as a cat can, 'Looks like there is somone out there 
like that.'  she thought.  "You asked."
"I was bluffing."  Honoria giggled, and Luna groaned, "Well, 
don't tell Usagi, or her friends."  
"Usagi doesn't know?"  Honoria asked, confused.  "I think 
you're lying."  She said, determinedly, and Luna shook her 
head, "No, they have no idea.  Why should I tell them?"  
Honoria got a stubborn look in her eye, "Minako, she has 
Artemis.  Does he talk?"  
	Luna looked uncertain, and Honoria gasped, "Oh, 
he does!  This is wonderful!!"  Her eyes glowed, and she 
dropped Luna, "Thanks!"  She ran out the door.  Luna 
looked confused, and walked as dignified as she could 
out of the room.
"Honoria ran out of here like there was a fire, Luna.  Did 
you talk to her?"  Usagi asked.  Luna glared at Usagi, 
"Never mind."


	Minako shooed off Artemis, "You deserve to have 
some fun.  Go and see Luna, go!"  Artemis pouted, as well 
as a cat can, "I don't know."  Minako nearly shoved him 
out the door, "I'm a big senshi now, you can leave!"  The 
door slammed, and Minako sighed relaxingly.  "Finally, 
some peace and quiet."  She said, and turned on the 
television, and popped in a movie about a mud wrestling 
match.  She put some popcorn in a bowl, and flopped on 
the couch.
	The doorbell rung, and Minako sighed, and turned 
off the television and went to the door.  When she opened it, 
Honoria was standing there.
"Honoria, what a suprise."  She said, pleased, and Honoria 
grinned.  Minako, being the senshi of love and beauty, could 
decipher feelings easily, and Honoria seemed genuinely 
happy to see her, but it was as if she was no longer used 
to being friendly.  Her grin seemed genuine, but strained, 
and she asked, "May I come in?"
"Hai, make yourself at home."  Minako said, and turned 
back on the mud wrestling.  
"Heh, Slinky Sara and Kinky Kara in a tag team event 
against Prim Prudence and Priss Pamela, my favorite."  
Honoria said, and sat down, grabbing a handful of popcorn.  
Minako laughed, "Well, it's subtitled.  So you can understand it."
"Are you kidding?  I went to this match one time, when it 
was Couples Tag Team Wrestling.  Mister Tim against Sister 
Kim and Nino Rex,and Nina--"  
"Well, enough about that, what brings you here?"  Minako 
said, laughing, tunring red.  Honoria smiled slightly, and 
looked down, then back up at Minako sharply.  "I know 
Luna talks, but she tells me Usagi doesn't know, and then 
she told me Artemis can talk, and I know you must know, 
so are you Sailor Venus?"  
	Minako's jaw dropped, the quick babble of words 
had her confused, then when she said the last part, it just 
threw everything out of perspective.  "What makes you 
think that?"  Minako choked out.  Honoria looked totally 
helpless, and she lifted her sleeve.  Minako saw the white 
bandage over her upper arm, and gasped, "Sailor Earth?"  
Honoria nodded, looking hopeful.  "Sailor Venus?"
"Hai!!"  Minako cried out, and both hugged.  


	Honoria had never felt so happy, finally, someone who 
knew what she was going through.  As they talked, Honoria 
learned how Sailor Venus was first Sailor V, with Artemis.
"So, how did you find out you were Sailor Venus?"  Honoria 
asked.  Minako paused, "Well, I had a...dream.  Artemis had 
the same, and he gave me the stick and transformation phrase."  
she nodded quickly.  Honoria had a strange feeling, but 
brushed it off.  
	"Eclipse and I, we were a team.  Nothing we did 
was less than spectactular.  I'll admit it, people actually 
gathered around to see me fight a youma.  Eclipse had the 
greatest plans, if he were a human, he would be something 
special, he had something that set him apart.  He was a 
little better then the others, and maybe I'm biased, but he 
was."  Honoria got a faraway look in her eye.
"What happened to him?"  Minako asked softly.  Honoria 
sighed, "I came here so no one I know will get in the way.  
See, I was fighting a youma, like usual, and I realized she 
was the mother of the youmas.  So I killed her, and then 
he appeared."
"He?"  Minako asked, confused.
"Well, he's like, the leader of them all, his name is Adalys.  
He is the most arrogant, evil, gorgeous villian.  After I killed 
the Mother youma, he appeared.   We fought, my wind 
dagger was a sword then..."

	Sailor Earth stared at the man, "Who are you?"  He 
laughed, "Adalys.  I presume you are the beautiful, yet 
bothersome Sailor Earth?"  
"The one and only!"  She cried out bravely, and sized him 
up under her eyelashes.  He was lean, but powerful, and he 
held a black sword in his hand.  Her wind dagger transformed 
to a wind sword, and she stared at it in shock.  She lifted her 
wide blue eyes to him, and held it in front of her, clutching it 
with both hands.
	He laughed, and struck with lightening force, and she 
instinctively raised her sword, and was shocked when she 
realized she had blocked it.  They both stared at the swords, 
and he increased his pressure, and she hers.  She giggled at 
his looks, and he winked.  That drew attention to his chocolate 
eyes, and she fell so fast.  Not for him, but into his eyes, and 
he sucked in a breath.
	Sailor Earth saw everything about him, the blackness, 
evil, and dark feelings, and she saw the good, the 
compassionate, which was a empty part of him, a part he never 
used.  A tugging was felt at the edge of her mind, and she tore 
away.  Dazed, she looked at him, and he looked the same.  
Both stared confused at each other,and he said, "Honoria?  
Now, I know."  His voice sounded thick, like it was hard to 
talk.
	Sailor Earth could only stare at him, and he chuckled, 
"You've taken away my most important asset, I will take 
away your life."
"So kill me." Sailor Earth bluffed.  He growled, "Oh, you're 
good.  You know I won't kill you, yet you blithely taunt me."  
He looked at her thoughtfully, "I'll start slowly, making your 
life more and more miserable, but slowly."

	Minako hugged Honoria, "He killed your cat?"  Honoria 
nodded, "Only he could have.  It was a stray car, and it zoomed 
by, and ran right over him.  It was not a pretty sight."  Honoria 
saw the horror in Minako's eyes, and knew she was picturing 
Artemis on the street, flattened like a pancake.  
	A giggle escaped from her lips, imagining him being 
flipped up, like a pancake.  Minako laughed too, Honoria 
could see that she was picturing the same thing.  Honoria 
sighed, and looked at Minako.  "I like you."  She smiled.  Minako
 looked touched, and touched her hand, "I like you too, Honoria.  
You seem to have more pain in you than anyone I've known.  
But you seem like you can love as passionately, and as freely 
as Usagi.  She will be friends with anyone."
	Honoria hugged her impulsively, and they sat down 
on the couch.  "I'm so lonely.  I've been friends with Gwen all 
my life, but I feel like no one can understand me, until I met you."
"Mamoru lost his parents, as well as Makoto."  Minako explained.
	"But you know what's it's like to reserve a secret 
identity, without anyone helping you, or knowing about your 
alter ego."  Minako paused, and she realized this was true.  
Usagi only had so long to be alone, then everybody came to 
help her out.  Minako was the only one who worked on who 
her own for so long.  "I understand."
"And, how it is to lose your family...and leave everything."  
Honoria whispered, lost in her own world.  Minako thought 
of her family and friends back in England, and looked confused 
at Honoria.  Honoria hugged Minako and curled in her lap like a 
little kid.  Minako murmured soothing words to her, pushing 
back her long bangs from her eyes.
	Honoria wasn't about to cry, but this was the closest 
she had ever felt to it.  She laid her head on Minako's shoulder, 
and closed her burning eyes.  Minako held her, and Honoria 
slowly, and peacefully fell asleep.


	Usagi shook Mamoru, "Come on, the girl's and I are 
going for a day's out.  Maybe a little shopping, plenty of eating, 
more shopping, more eating."
"Then why are you waking me?"  Mamoru grumbled, "Besides, 
go take Honoria with you."  Usagi stubbornly shook her head, 
"She left last night, in a hurry.  She hasn't came back."
"Then let me sleep, for goodness sake."  He muttered, and went 
back to sleep.  Usagi sighed, and left.
	When all of them were all together except Minako, Rei 
began complaining, "It's too early."  Usagi rolled her eyes, 
"Most likely, but hey, we need a early start.  So let's go get 
Minako."  They left for Minako's duplex, taking Makoto's car, 
a cute forest green convertible, her pride and joy.  When they 
arrived, they all jumped out, and headed for the door.  
	Joking around, Makoto opened the door with her key.  
They all looked in, and saw Honoria and Minako curled up on 
the couch, with their arms around each other.
"Minako?  Honoria?"  They cried out.


	Honoria stirred at the mention of her name, and snuggled 
into Minako's arms.  Then her eyes shot opne, and she distangled 
herself from Minako.  Minako's jaw dropped, and she stared at 
Usagi, Rei, Ami, and Makoto wordlessly, and they stared back.  
Honoria jumped from the couch, her face burning.
"We have an explanation!"  She cried out.  Minako nodded quickly, 
but the girl's faces were still shocked.  "I never knew, Minako."  
Makoto said, doubtfully.  Minako groaned, and looked at Honoria, 
she just shrugged.  On closer look, Honoria had a stubborn set 
to her chin, as if resolutely not caring what they think.
"Makoto, you know I'm not like that.  She was upset, and she 
crashed at my place."
"But you two were..."  Usagi started.  Honoria took a step 
forward, "Were what?  Is it her fault she was being really nice, 
and comforted me?  We didn't have any torn clothing, or even 
rumpled, and did you see us doing anything more than 
hugging?  How dare you jump to conclusions like that?"
	The girls looked at each other, but Usagi snorted, 
"How much do we really know about you?  You could have 
coerced Minako into it."  Honoria's eyes got really wide, 
and her mouth dropped, "What do I look like, some sort 
of sick girl chaser?  If you walked in and we were making 
out, or kissing, I'd give you free rein to jump to conclusions, 
but we fell asleep while she was consoling me, ever think I 
have had a hard time adjusting to here?"
	"Just stay away from Minako."  Usagi snapped, and 
walked out.  Suprised, Rei and Makoto followed, but Ami 
stood there.  After Ami was sure they left, she adressed 
Minako, "You defended Sailor Earth quite adequately, 
even gave her the adress to your personal doctor, who 
dressed your wounds as Sailor V, he asks no questions."
"Your computer can do wonders."  Minako laughed.  
Honoria took a step back, but Minako put a hand on her 
shoulder.  Ami stared at Honoria, "You're Sailor Earth?"  Honoria 
nodded, if Minako trusted Ami, she would trust her.
	Honoria sized up Ami, and Ami did the same.  Minako 
looked worried, but when Honoria nodded to Minako, she relaxed.  
"Honoria is Sailor Earth, and her cat Eclipse was like Artemis."
"And Luna?"  Ami asked.  Minako tried to signal Ami in time, 
but Ami didn't see her.
"You know about Luna?"  Honoria asked, suspisciously, yet 
confused.  Minako said quickly, "I told Ami about Artemis and 
Luna, but the others don't know."  But at the same time, Ami 
said cheerfully, "I'm Sailor Mercury."
	Honoria glanced at Minako, "Nice of you to tell me."
"Well, I didn't know if Ami wanted me too.  We found each other 
a few years ago, years after I was Sailor V."  Minako explained 
slowly, if she explained too quickly, Honoria would get 
suspiscious.  Honoria relaxed, she trusted Minako completely.  
Ami shook her hand warmly, and sat on the reclining chair.
"Who is the senshi in the pink and yellow?"  Honoria asked.  
"We're trying to figure that out ourself."  Minako said quickly.  Ami 
stared at her baffled, and Minako shrugged.  Honoria was 
happy with the answer, though.


	Adalys moodily made swirls in his tea with his tea 
leaves.  Oh, he wasn't going to fool himself, he was attracted 
to Honoria.  She was a feisty little firecracker who just went 
around the bend.  He had no qualms like her, she denied it 
because he was evil, and all that.  However, he could tease 
her openly.  Hell, weren't bad guys supposed to try to corrupt 
innocent superheroines to the dark side by seduction?  
	Laughing out loud, he felt slightly like dancing around 
the room, just carefree.  Being a supervillian is so hard, he 
chuckled.  That other blonde, the one with the big red bow 
was interesting, she was getting through to Honoria.  Honoria 
wouldn't admit it, he knew, but he knew her better than 
anybody.
	Looking into her eyes for the first time was so 
shocking, like licking a battery.  She was so trusting, and 
innocent.  It was disgusting, really.  She loved too much, she 
would have liked him if he wouldn't have killed her little cat and 
boyfriend.  Well, liked him more than she did now, anyway.  
	Something about that cute little upturned face so filled 
with hate just made him feel good all over.  He chuckled, "You 
are absolutely crazy.  You know you don't have a chance with 
her, unless, of course, you brainwash her.  Then that would be 
easy, but her buddy would come and get her, heal her, then 
I'd be left with memories."  He laughed loudly, and tapped on 
the armchair of his throne.  "Operation predictable is about to 
start."


	"Really, what Minako does in her own time is her own 
business."  Makoto said.  Rei looked at Usagi and Makoto 
disgustedly, "Oh please, like Minako would.  I believe her 
utterly and completely that nothing went on.  You should too."
"I don't know about Honoria."  Usagi said stubbornly.  Rei 
rolled her eyes, "What's with you and Honoria?  Besides, 
Minako is not some wide eyed teenager anymore that can 
be persuaded into anything that she doesn't want.  I'm out 
of here."
	Rei was about to leave, and Usagi looked at Rei 
pleadingly, "There's something Honoria isn't telling us, and 
I thought this might be it." Rei paused, and sat back down, 
"I'm not going to leave.  We'll stay till we figure it out."  Luna 
spoke up, "I've got an idea."


	Honoria heard a knocking, and she looked at Minako 
and Ami quickly.  Honoria nodded, "You get it, I've got to run 
a brush through my hair."  Honoria went to the bathroom, and 
started to brush her short, curly hair.  Her golden tresses 
weren't small little curls, but more of a springy, larger curls.  
After washing her face, she walked back out.
	Honoria stopped short in the doorway, there was 
Adalys sitting on the couch, laughing with the two girls.  He 
was playing with her, he knew she wouldn't put her friends in 
danger.  She was nearly twitching in fury, "So, who is this?"  
Minako jumped up, and put a hand on her shoulder, "This is 
Adalys!"  She gushed.
	Honoria stared at Minako, 'Hadn't she just told her 
about Adalys?'  Minako ran a hand through her hair, "My 
hair is so messy, let me go freshen up."  She glanced flirtingly 
at Adalys, then walked into the bathroom.  Honoria sat by Ami, 
"Why don't you go with Minako?"  Ami was staring at Adalys, 
"Do I have to?"  Honoria dug her elbow into Ami's ribs, and Ami 
stood up, "I better go."
	Honoria smiled brightly at Adalys, "What the hell are 
you doing here?"  He put on a hurt face, "I'm a guest."  Then he 
grinned, "Don't even think about it, your friends aren't out of 
danger yet."  Honoria looked angrily at him, and stood up, 
"You wouldn't."
"No, he couldn't."  came a voice from behind her, and Sailor 
Venus and Mercury stood there, grinning at each other.  Adalys 
jumped up, "You guys don't know how to treat your guests, do 
you?"
"Villians aren't allowed in my house."  Sailor Venus said, and 
said, "Venus Love Me Chain!"  Her golden heart chain shot 
out, and wrapped around him.  "Kinky."  He commented, looking 
at the chain doubtfully.  Sailor Mercury yelled, "Shining Aqua 
Illusion!"  Adalys dodged, "I'm starting to think you guys are 
trying to hurt me."  Honoria got in front of him, "You guys will 
only get hurt!"  
	Adalys started to float upward, and Honoria turned her 
back on him, and looked at the two Senshi, "This is my fight, I 
don't want you two to get in the way and get hurt!"  She cried 
out.  Sailor Venus shook her head, "We've been in tougher 
situations, Crescent Beam!!"  She cried out, and Adalys 
picked up Honoria, and all the girl's mouth dropped in shock.  
Honoria struggled, but it was no use.  
	Sailor Venus stared as the beam hit her, and they 
both slowly fell backward.  A portal opened, and Adalys 
waved at them.  After they disappeard, Mercury looked at 
Venus, "Why do I get this horrible sinking feeling?"
"We need the other senshi for this."  Venus said, resolutely.
	A few hours later, Haruka, Michiru, Ami, and 
Minako sat in a circle.  "Why did you call us here for?"  
Haruka asked, and Michiru asked, "Where is Usagi?"  
Minako and Ami looked at each other, and Minako spoke 
up, "The other's aren't here because we've had a little 
misunderstanding."  Minako explained about Honoria, how 
she came and Usagi and her don't get alng, also that she 
was Sailor Earth.  Reluctantly she told her how the rest found 
them in the morning, and Haruka laughed, "Minako, I never 
knew, and if I did..."  Haruka winked.  Michiru gave Haruka 
an annoyed look, and Minako turned even redder.  "Nothing 
happened, and anyway..."  She told them about Adalys, and 
how he arrived, and sort of used Honoria as a sheild, then they 
disappeared.
	Haruka looked at Michiru, "Things happen so fast 
around here."  Michiru nodded, and Minako and Ami shrugged, 
"It grows on you."  Ami explained.
"Like fungus."  Minako muttered.


	Rei sat in fron of the fire, Makoto and Usagi behind her, 
"Fire, show us what Honoria is hiding."  The fire got higher, and 
a image of a man showed.  He had dark-gold hair, silky and 
straight, and liquid brown eyes, gazing soulfully off into the 
distance.  He had on a black pants, and a white muscle t-shirt.  
Makoto nearly swooned, Rei tried to find out more about this 
mysterious man, "Are Honoria and him involved?"
"Good question."  Makoto giggled, and Usagi elbowed her.  
The fire showed a split second of him holding a girl, and all 
you could see was the top of her head, golden and curly hair.  
"So maybe she doesn't want any one to know she dating 
him?"  Rei asked, after the image faded.  Makoto nodded, 
"That's all, now can we go to Minako's and have a hearty 
laugh over this whole thing."
	Usagi opened her mouth to agree, then the fire 
showed an image showing the man's eyes flashing red, 
and Honoria was laughing.  Rei and Makoto looked 
crestfallen at Usagi, who was staring at the fading image.  
"No one's going anywhere."  She said stubbornly, and 
Makoto and Rei groaned.


"Everybody cries, everybody hurts sometimes, sometimes 
everything is wrong..."  A male voice crooned in the background.  
Honoria growled at the radio as the man sang "Everybody cries." 
over and over.  She knew Adalys was making it repeat that phrase 
to annoy her.
"Shut up!!"  she yelled, and threw a nearby rock at it.  The rock 
crashed into it, and it fell back, splintering into many pieces.  From 
the smashed radio came; "Are you strong enough to be my man? 
Are you strong enough--?"  Honoria threw another rock, and it was 
silent.
	Then she looked at her arm, it was burnt, how could she 
throw?  Then she realized the bandage was gone, and she was 
dressed in all black.  "What in the world?"  She asked out loud, 
and Adalys stepped from the shadows.  "I think it becomes 
you, sweets."  A full length mirror appeared in front of her, and 
she stood.  
	She had tall, knee high boots, "Typical."  She muttered, 
and a smooth expanse of leg went up till she saw her black fuku.  
Her mouth widened, and she looked at her fuku, the bows and 
skirt was black, also her collar, with white stripes.  "You have 
no fashion sense."  She snapped, and started to tug at the collar, 
looking for a way to get it off.
	Adalys chuckled, "Well, that's a nice repayment."  She 
glanced irritated him, and kept trying to find a button, or zipper.  
"You don't.  Black and white does not become me.  What about 
pink?"  Adalys slightly waved his hand, and where her fuku was 
black, it turned to a deep pink.  Her face turned the same color, 
"I was joking!!"
"I think it looks pretty."  He said, smiling, raising his eyebrows 
appeasingly.  She made a face, "Please, no false flattery," he 
opened his mouth to say something, but she cut him off, "and 
even if it wasn't false, you're just trying to soften me up for 
whatever diabolical plan you have concocted."
"No plan.  I want you to join me." He said seriously.  A flash 
of all the people, and one cat,  she loved that had been killed 
by his command flashed before her.  She threw back her head 
and laughed, laughed at him.  He got up, hurt and anger 
flashing in his eyes, "Well, I didn't want to resort to this, but 
I will in a half of a second."  She took a step back, a hand 
resting delicately on her bow.  
	How I love the look of fear."  He chuckled, and tossed 
up a small, crystal ball.  She looked into it, it had all the colors 
of the rainbow inside of the ball.  Her eyes widened, and she 
stared at the beautiful swirls.  Her lips parted, and her eyes 
became unfocused.  Adalys laughed softly, it was too easy.  
He could have made it harder, but there was only so much he 
wanted a challenge on.
	He strode toward her, and looked into her eyes, her pupils 
were totally blue now, and she stared back.  "My my my, how the 
tables turn, buttercup.  Looks like the ball is in my court.  Pink 
isn't the most evil color, but you look so cute."
	Honoria nodded back, and grinned cutely, "Thank you, 
Adalys-san."
"That's so formal."  He said softly, and she shrugged, shaking 
her curls bouncily, "Sure, Ada-chan!"  She winked at him, and 
sat in his throne.  "Nice throne here, Ada-chan.  I wonder, what 
can we do for fun around here?"  She looked at him, blue eyes 
sparkling.


	Sailor Mercury looked at her computer, "The portal had 
more readings, I know I'm missing something.  All right, Jupiter, 
Uranus, try throwing your attacks at the wall of that store."  The 
four senshi were standing in an alley, and Sailor Jupiter and 
Uranus were about to throw their attacks there.
"Hold it!!"  Came a voice from behind, and they turned to see 
Honoria.  "Honoria!"  Venus cried out happily, and ran toward 
her.  Honoria hugged her warmly, and looked back at the others, 
"What are you two doing?"  
"We were looking for you."  Ami said, "I believe this place would 
lead us to where the portal took you."  Neptune stepped forward, 
"How did you get away?"
"I managed to escape from the same portal, he kept me tied up!  
Can you believe the nerve?"  Honoria said, and looked at Venus 
warmly, and Venus smiled.  "I'm just glad you're back."  Sailor 
Uranus looked at her suspiciously, then walked over, and grabbed 
her.
	Honoria's mouth dropped, and Venus looked at 
Uranus, "What are you doing?"  Honoria struggled, but Uranus 
was too strong.  "Sailor Venus," she began, as talking to a child, 
"We can't trust her.  She might not be Honoria, or be brainwashed."
	Mercury blushed, "I should have thought of that."  
Michiru placed a hand on her shoulder, "Don't worry, it takes 
practice to become so suspicious."  Honoria went limp, "Why 
are you guys doing this?  Venus?"  She reached out to Venus, 
and Venus looked pleadingly at Uranus, "She hasn't done 
anything!  Let her go!"
"We'll see."

	Honoria sat in Minako's recliner, tied up.  "Really now, I 
must protest.  My arms are starting to lose their feeling."  Minako 
started to step toward her, but Haruka shook her head.  Honoria 
looked shocked, "Come on sir, my arms are going numb!"  Haruka 
raised her eyebrow, then shrugged.  She was used to that by now, 
but she was not going to let Honoria go, especially since she knew 
Honoria knew she was a girl.
	"Joking?"  Honoria tried, "Besides, my arms are really 
getting numb!  I'll love you forever!"  She pleaded, and then giggled.  
"Oh, I didn't want to have to do this."  She looked upward, "Oh 
Adalys!"  she called out in a sing song voice.  Adalys appeared 
floating above them, and surveyed the scene, "Why was not I 
invited?"  He joked.  Minako jumped up, eyes brimming with 
tears as she shielded Honoria, "We'll heal her!  You get out of 
my house!"
"You invited me once, remember?  Only a bad host bans her 
guests from her house."
"Only bad villians don't learn their lesson!"  She yelled, and they 
began transforming.
	Adalys shielded his eyes from the bright lights, and when 
the lights faded, he saw four senshi.  "You're a girl?"  He asked the 
blonde with short hair, and she growled at him.  He backed up a 
little, but looked adoringly at Honoria, "My pet?"
"Yes?"  She asked him, and he flicked his head toward them, "A 
little help here."  She jumped up, the cords dissolving like wet 
tissue, and giggled insanely.
"Venus Love Me Chain!"  Venus yelled, trying to restrain her, but 
Honoria grabbed the chain, and tugged.  Venus flew into the 
couch, and Honoria wrapped her up with her own chain, then 
glanced at her, "We can't have you hurt."  Then she feircely 
kissed her forehead, and looked at Mercury, eyes glowing, "Hey 
there."
	Mercury backed up, glancing at Neptune nervously.  Behind 
her, Venus willed the chain to disappear.  Meanwhile, Uranus stood 
in the way of Adalys, blocking him from the four other girls.  Venus 
got up, and whispered, "Venus Love Me Chain!"  The chain wrapped 
around Honoria, and she looked back at Venus sadly, "Oh, I thought 
we had come past this."  
	Adalys dodged around Uranus,and grabbed the chain from 
Venus' grasp, and again floated upward.  Honoria was suspended 
several feet in the air, and she grinned happily.
"Fire Soul!"  Came a shout, and fire flew forth and dissolved the 
chain.  Honoria hit the floor with a thud, "Why is everyone trying to 
roast me?"  she yelled.  Sailor Venus went to help her up quickly.
	Sailor Jupiter and Moon came forth, and Sailor Moon said, 
"Is this a private party, or is everyone invited?"  Jupiter nodded, 
then looked at Adalys, "I don't know what kind of game your 
playing, but let me tell you, we have seven senshi now."  Adalys 
looked bashful, "Oh, you girls didn't have to go through all this 
trouble for me."  
"Adalys, let's go!"  Honoria yelled, and Venus put a restraining 
hand on her shoulder.  Grinning, he snapped, and Honoria began 
to float toward him.  Sailor Jupiter, Uranus, Neptune, and Venus 
got in the way.
	When they all got together, they could look pretty 
intimidating, but Adalys just shrugged.  "Fine, but I'll be back 
for her."  He looked pointedly at Venus,. and his eyes flickered 
toward Honoria, and Venus shook her head stubbornly.  With 
that, Adalys disappeared.


	Honoria looked around at the seven faces looking at her, 
"What are you staring at?"  She snapped.  They looked at each 
other, Honoria was now speaking in a mix of Japanese and 
English.  Doubtfully, Usagi looked at her, "The only person 
you'll talk to is Minako, why?"
"Sorry, I'm sorry, Ami, Rei, Makoto, Haruka, and Michiru."  She 
said, and pointedly looked away.  Usagi looked miffed, "What 
is wrong with me?"  Honoria looked over at her coldly, "You take 
everything you have for granted, everything I don't have."
"What do I have that you don't?"  Usagi asked, exasperated.  Honoria 
looked at Luna sullenly, and her lip curled, "A cat.  A talking cat 
who trains you."  
"What happened to yours?"  Usagi asked dryly.  Honoria sulked, 
"He's dead.  You have an family."
"I know you're an orphan, but wasn't that years ago?"  Usagi asked, 
looking at Mamoru.  Honoria shook her head sullenly, "No, they 
died not two weeks ago.  By the villian who murdered my cat, 
Eclipse."
"That's tough."  Usagi said softly, "But no reason to hate everyone 
and give up."  Honoria shook her head wordlessly, and stared at 
Mamoru.  "You have never lost him."
"Oh, you wouldn't think, huh?"  Usagi joked, then explained as 
quickly as she could, how Zoicite had tried, and all the other 
villians who tried, some succeeded for a short time.  "See, I've 
him many times."
	Honoria's eyes narrowed, and she bared her teeth at 
Usagi, "I've lost Rowdon for good though, his guts were nearly 
in my hands, and he died thinking I wasn't there, he died 
thinking I was some hero who wasn't the woman he loved, 
I never got to tell him about my secret life!"  she calmed down, 
and finished the last part bitterly, "He is dead, and I have no all 
powerful stone to bring him back.  You try doing that."  She 
looked away, then turned back and grinned.
	Everybody looked sadly at her, but Usagi persisted, 
"I would never become so bitter."  
"Oh?"  Honoria giggled hysterically, "Look at Mamoru right 
now, and tell me what you would do if he was six feet under, 
never to hug you again.  Look hard, Usagi, and imagine him 
beyond your reach forever."
	Usagi's eyes widened with tears, and Honoria snorted 
in disgust, "You cry, too."  she shook her head.  "You haven't 
even lost him, and you cry."
"I'm crying for you."  Usagi said softly.  Honoria seemed to 
explode, wildly straining against the cords.  The light caught 
her eye, and the glint turned red.  "Heal her!"  Minako yelled.  
Usagi shook her head, and said, "We can't heal her unless she 
wants to."
"You'll heal Mamoru when he was evil and didn't have a say in the 
matter!  Just because she's not your squeeze doesn't mean she's 
any less important!!"  Minako yelled, and everybody stared at her 
in shock.  Usagi took out her crystal, "Fine."


	Honoria saw the crystal being held in front of her, and 
she heard a Usagi say something, and light began to pour out.  
The light seemed to seep into her skin, killing the evil inside, 
and she fought.  Fought the pure light that could lay her out 
as vulnerable as a newborn babe. 
	A soft glow began to emit from her, and the rest looked 
pleased.  Then the glow turned to a bright, intense light and shot 
out of her.
"Damn!"  Adalys yelled, appearing above them.  He grabbed 
Honoria, "Why can't you leave us alone!  I think you've done 
enough damage!  Look, you've brought back all those hurtful 
memories I took special care to erase."  He gently stroked 
her sweaty forehead as he cradled her like a babe.  "I wish 
you all would stop hurting her."
"We're not the ones who made the memories in the first place."  
Minako said, and he lifted his chin, and disappeared.
"Damn."  Usagi muttered, and Minako sat back down.  "I can't 
believe this.  This sucks."


	Adalys held up the crystal ball again, and made her 
stare at it.  She struggled like a wildcat, and he grabbed the 
back of her neck and made her look.  In this painful state of 
mind, she wasn't quite herself, but she wasn't brainwashed and 
passive, either.  She was more like a hurt animal, pained and 
lashing out, without caring who it was.
	Adalys wanted her just to stop remembering, even 
though, as that Sailor Venus said, he had caused the memories.  
'Villians were supposed to be evil,' he rationalized, 'why is it my 
fault I succeeded where most villians can't?  It's not like there's 
some villian handbook that says where the limits are. We're 
fighting for world conquest, why must we be so wimpy?'
	Adalys felt all the memories seep into the crystal, and he 
carefully erased all the bad ones, the ones of death.  Then he 
erased Rowdon completely, and most of her family.  Then he 
erased most of the memories of Sailor Earth, making them seem 
less important.  Her eyelashes fluttered, and she slumped 
forward.  He caught her gently, "Hopefully that's enough 
memories to keep her from wanting more.  G'night, sweets."  
He let her drop.


	The seven senshi sat in Rei's temple.  "Well, now we 
must examine Adalys' weakness."  Minako started, she was the 
leader of the inner senshi, but Haruka, said, "We should try to 
get Honoria back, she would be useful in psyching out Adalys."
"He won't be psyched out, trust me."  Minako argued.
"I thought you wanted to get Honoria back."  Haruka asked.  
Minako sighed, "I do, but what Adalys said makes sense.  We'll 
get her back in all due time, but for now, we should let her have 
some peace."  Minako looked downward, and the other senshi 
looked at each other.  They remembered what he said, but 
Usagi spoke up, "Look, we don't know anything at all about 
Adalys, not his weakness, or strength, we don't even know 
exactly what he's trying to do.  Honoria knows him better 
than any of us, we need here with us."
	Minako shook her head, "No."  Usagi sighed 
exasperated, "You are a wonderful leader, why are you 
being so stubborn when we make sense?"
"Because if I can spare a human a few moments of suffering, I 
will, at all costs."  Minako crossed her arms.  The rest looked 
at each other.
	Honoria appeared above them, "'I'm touched your all 
worried about me, really.  But I'm perfectly fine."  Minaok jumped 
up, and Usagi grabbed her arm, "She's still brainwashed."  Minako 
shook her off angrily, pushing her away, "I know, I've been a Sailor 
senshi longer than you."  Minako walked toward Honoria, "What 
are you dong here?"  
	"Energy.  What better way to take over the world than 
energy, and what better way to get energy than the most powerful 
senshi?"  She smiled cutely, and smiled at all the senshi.  She 
still had on that dark pink fuku on, and she made some swift 
movements with her white gloved hands.  Minako looked 
determined, "Then take me, I'll provide enough energy."  
	Honoria blinked, "No, I couldn't."  Then she looked 
again from senshi to senshi, as if examining a choice piece 
of meat.  "One of them would do."  Minako got in her way, "No, 
take me.  I'll provide enough, trust me."  Again Honoria evaded 
her, "No."  
"Yes!"  she yelled.  The rest realized she was calling her bluff, 
almost.  Honoria looked furious, "Fine!"  She grabbed Minako 
angrily, jerking her by the collar, and they disappeared.  Haruka 
looked exasperated, "You girls sure have a weird way of handling 
things."


	Honoria angrily shoved Minako on the ground when they 
arrived.  She didn't know why she was so mad, Ada-chan hadn't 
said she could be mad.  Growling, she looked at Adalys and 
pointed to her.  "Use her."  Then she stomped off.
	Minako transformed into Sailor Venus, and faced off 
against him.  He grinned, pleased, "Spunky, I like it."  She 
said something, then kissed her hand, and it formed a gold 
heart, then thrust out her hand from her, and a golden heart 
circle flew at him.  He dodged, "Maybe not that spunky!"  He 
joked, and she looked dangerously at him.  
"Venus Love Me Chain!"  she called out, and as it shot out, 
Honoria grabbed it, and Venus looked around, where did she 
come from?  Honoria quickly yanked it, and used it like a whip, 
wrapping it around Venus.
	Sailor Venus was laid down and Honoria tied a thin, 
deep pink cord to her wrist.  The thin cord began to glow, and 
Venus felt her energy starting to flow out.  Her eyes widened, 
and she tried to get it off.  The energy poured into a medium 
sized black box.  Adalys petted the box, "See, you have the 
priviledge of fueling the little box that will contain dark energy."
	After this is properly fueled," he continued, "it will 
explode, and dark energy will seep out, and cover this world 
with it.  Not only will they be totally susceptible to any kind 
of mind control, but afterward, they will serve Honoria."
"Honoria?"  Venus asked, confused.  "Most villians would 
have said 'they will serve me.'  Why Honoria?"
"She has the potential to.  Besides, when has a bad guy 
ever won?  She is a good girl, and I believe if someone can, 
she will.  Would you destroy Honoria?"  He asked Venus, 
and she shook her head.  "Now, would you destroy me?"  
He said, raising a eyebrow, and she nodded quickly.  "Thank 
goodness, my plan will work."  
"But what makes you think a 'good girl' will rule the world?"  
Venus asked, challengingly.  He shrugged, "What does she 
have to live for?"
	Honoria looked at them poutingly, "When are we 
going to have some fun around here?"  Adalys smiled, "As 
soon as we start filling this thing up."  Honoria leaned over 
Venus, pretending to tighten the cord, but she slipped it off 
and put it on her wrist.  "We can't let your strength going 
down, now can we?"  Honoria whispered.
	Sailor Venus wondered if she was really under mind 
control, but looking into her eyes, they were still slightly 
glazed, the pupils nearly non-existant.  She was doing helping 
her, even though she was under mind control.  The energy 
changed that was going into the box, and Adalys whirled 
around.
"What are you doing?"  He yanked the cord from Honoria's 
wrist.  He grasped her wrist, and rubbed it with his hand, 
"Are you okay?"  Honoria nodded, and stared up at him.  
He placed a hand on her shoulder, "Let's go until the energy 
is completely sapped."  She nodded, only having eyes for 
him.  Venus watched as they left, getting weird signals 
from both of them.


	Honoria looked around her.  This wasn't like the rest of 
Adalys' hideaway, the rest was rock, and stones, but this place 
almost looked normal.  There was a oak table by one of the 
marble walls.  To Honoria, everything was a little bright, a little 
too clarified, as if she couldn't think straight.  At the back of her 
mind, swirling colors played along the edges of her mind.
	Adalys put his hand at the small of her back, and led her 
to a hammock suspended from air, just sort of floating.
"Tired, love?"  He asked softly, and she nodded.  He gently laid her 
down on it, and tucked the thin blanket around her.  Honoria stared 
up, and his brown eyes filled her vision.  For a second, she thought 
he was going to...to do something, but he pulled back and she 
could breathe again.
	She felt a warm hand running through her bangs, putting 
them to the side, then she heard footsteps leaving.


	"Now we go for them."  Rei said, and Usagi nodded.  "Now 
we go to wherever Adalys has them  Ami, do you still have the 
coordinates for the location?"  Everybody stared at Usagi, getting 
a small sweatdrop.  "Hai."  Ami said, and her visor appeared, 
and she began to type in her computer.
	Soon, they were all in senshi form, and ready.  "Once 
again, Jupiter, Uranus, throw your attacks precisely at that 
small X that Usagi drew."  Sailor Mercury said, and Sailor 
Moon grinned.  "Looks like a mix between a y and a z."  Mars 
muttered, and Sailor Moon stepped on her foot.  
	Sailor Jupiter and Uranus threw their attacks at the same 
time, and a portal opened, about two feet in diameter.  Everybody 
groaned.  "Well, how else will we get Honoria?" Jupiter argued.
"Hey, what are you guys doing?  What about Honoria?"  came a 
voice from behind.  An auburn haired girl yelled, and spotted 
Tuxedo Kamen, "How long does a girl have to wait in your 
apartment?"  Sailor Moon turned to Tuxedo Kamen, and he 
shook his head, "It's not what it seems!"  Gwen saw the girls 
piling into the portal, though they had some struggle fitting.  She 
ran forward, though Tuxedo Kamen tried to stop her, she 
shrugged him off, she didn't come this far not to find her best 
friend.
	Helplessly, they piled in after Gwen climbed in easily.  
Sailor Moon glared at Tuxedo Kamen, who muttered, "I'll explain 
better, the only problem I want right now is fitting through this 
portal."
	They all landed in a heap, and Gwen wriggled away 
first.  "Now can I ask what's going on, and how do you all 
know Gwen?"  Everybody looked at each other, "We'll stop 
to explain only for a minute."  Sailor Moon muttered, and Sailor 
Mercury said "This is going to be a long minute."
	After they had explained as quickly and fast as they could 
without confusion.  Of course, there still was, but it made more 
sense than not.
"So that's why she was so secretive.  That's why she always left 
in the middle of the night during sleepovers.  Well, I suppose she 
couldn't tell me, her best friend."  She looked bitterly at them, 
and Tuxedo Kamen shook her head, "I've been in her position 
Gwen, and it's not easy trying to protect the ones you love."  
Sailor Moon smiled at him, and put her hand on his hand.
	Gwen looked at them disgustedly, "Yes, that's nice.  
But I want my friend back.  You guys will lead me to her, right?"  
Her voice got a hard edge, and her lower lip jutted out and she 
crossed her arms.  "You're a lot like Honoria."  Sailor Uranus 
noted, and Gwen glared, "I know, but let me rephrase that.  You 
guys will lead her to me."  She looked at them through lowered 
lashes.  
	Everybody glanced nervously at each other, and Sailor 
Moon nodded, "Hai, of course, as you wish."
"Also, I'm not as good with Japanese as Honoria is, I can barely 
understand you."  she said, her mouth twisting into a wry smile.  
Tuxedo Kamen nodded, "I speak fluent English, Mercury, Uranus, 
and Neptune can too."  Gwen grinned, "That's better.  Now let's go."  
She began to walk forward, and the senshi shrugged, and followed.


	Honoria leaned over to Adalys, "Full house, kings high!"  
She laid out her cards, and disgusted, he threw his down.  "You're 
cheating."  Honoria began to shuffle expertly, "Oh, don't be a sore 
loser.  You're going to lose a lot of times, no sense in being moody."
	They dealt again, and Honoria laid down four.  Adaly 
smirked, "Ace?"  
"Hey, don't give away the game plan."  She muttered, and Adalys 
took two.  He laid down his cards, "Full house, aces high!"  She 
looked at him, smiling, "Oh dear, I only have two pair."  He was 
about to grab the stones in the pot, but she laid down her hand, 
"First two pair, 10's, second two pair, 10's."
"Cheat!!"  He yelled, and moodily pushed the stones toward her.  
She picked them up, "I like these ones.  Nephrite, Jadeite, Zoicite, 
and Kunzite.  Sparkly."  She held them up to the glowing orb that 
served as a light.
"Should we check on Venus?"  She asked, casually.  He shrugged, 
"Go ahead."
	Honoria skipped out, humming happily.  As she teleported 
into the other room, she saw those other senshi girls.  "Hi!"  She 
skipped over, "What are you guys doing?"
"Trying to untie Venus."  Uranus grunted, and was pulling on the 
cord.  "That's not how you do it!"  Honoria giggled.  Sailor Moon 
got a speculative look in her eye, "Honoria, can you show us?"
"No, Adalys said not to untie her."  Honoria straightened.  Sailor 
Moon went on in that soft voice, "You won't be untying her, we'll 
tie her right back up."  
	Honoria thought about it., and shrugged, "Okay, he'll never 
know."  Sailor Moon looked at the others, "I think I like her this 
way."  Honoria untyed her quickly, and Sailor Venus jumped up, 
"Hey!"  Honoria cried out, "I have to tie you back up!"  
	Sailor Venus brushed herself off, "Iie, not again."  Honoria's 
lip began to tremble, "Come on, I tried to help you."  She 
whispered, and Sailor Venus looked doubtful, "Well, we could 
suprise him.  Just try to keep the pink cord from touching me."  
Honoria nodded eagerly, and tied her up, making sure that the 
pink cord was nestled loosely on her wrist.
	Sailor Uranus pulled out her sword, and yanked Honoria 
to her.  Suprised, she stumbled, and found herself with a arm 
around her waist, and a sword to her throat.  "Eh?"  She managed 
to stutter, and Uranus looked at the rest.  "We'll get him out this 
way."  The inner senshi looked doubtful.
	"Adalys!"  Saior Neptune called out, and pushed the inner 
senshi to a dark corner, so Adalys wouldn't feel too threatened.  Adalys 
came out angrily, then stopped short.   "Honoria?  Hey, let her go!"  
He snapped to Uranus., who shook her head.  "Give us Venus."
	Everybody stared in shock as he walked over to Venus, 
snapped off her binds, and shoved her at them.  "Now give 
Honoria back."  It was so easy, not a trick, or hidden clause in 
sight.
"I think we should keep her."  Neptune said, and stood by 
Uranus.  Honoria was still limp, but Uranus' arm had loosened 
considerably.  She suddenly pushed the sword away and ran 
toward Adalys.  She slammed into him, her arms around him, 
and he held her, looking at the senshi over her head.
	"She doesn't want to leave with you."  He said angrily, 
and stroked her hair.  Sailor Venus broke away from the Senshi's 
enthused hugs, "Listen, the only reason she wants to stay 
is because you erased her memories.  That's really selfish 
Adalys."
"I'm just trying to make up for what I did."  He said softly, "Who's 
being selfish here?  If she stays with me, she'll be happy.  You all 
saw how angry and bitter she was, nothing like her bright self."
	Sailor Venus' face was sad, "All right.  Let's go."
"What!?"  came a angry voice.  Gwen stepped from between the 
Senshi.  "I will not leave her here!  Maybe she was angry and bitter, 
but she could let go of that.  Life here without her memories, without 
anyone else, is no life at all."  Gwen angrily faced Venus, who 
shook her head.  "Leave it alone."
"No."  She said softly, "She's been my friend since we were teething.  
I can't leave her now."
	Honoria turned around, still holding onto Adalys.  "Why 
are you doing this for me?"  Gwen took a few steps forward, "I 
care about you, that's why I traveled from another country to find 
you.  I won't give you up."
	Honoria grinned shyly at Adalys, then broke away and ran 
to Gwen, and held out a ornament.  "Look, isn't it pretty?  You can 
keep it, and remember me."  The senshi looked at each other, it 
was her henshin stick.  "Here Gwen, take it."  She encouraged, 
and Gwen stared down at it, she knew what it was.  Gwen looked 
at Adalys, "I hope your happy with this, there's hardly any Honoria 
left, she is a shell without her memories of Rowdon."  
"Rowdon?"  Honoria asked, confused.  Adalys strolled over, and 
hugged Honoria close to him, "She is Honoria without the pain, 
she is mine."
"And you're mine."  She said, and hugged him back.  Gwen took 
a step back, "She only loves you because--"  Adalys raised a hand to 
cut her off.  "You can say it, you can think it, you can believe it, but 
bottom line is she does love me."  He kissed the top of her head.
	Sailor Venus put a restraining hand on Gwen's arm, "We're 
not needed here.  Let's go."  Gwen relaxed, then pulled Honoria out 
of his embrace, shoving her aside.  Then she threw the henshin stick 
at him.  As it hit, the henshin stick glowed brightly, and he stumbled 
backward.
	The light faded slowly, and they all looked.  Only the henshin 
stick remained.  Honoria stood up, "What?"  Then she ran to the spot 
where he disappeared.  She picked up the henshin stick, and it dimly 
glowed, then stopped.  Honoria stood up, "Rowdon."  She said sadly, 
and looked at the place where Adalys disappeared.  "I would have 
settled for Adalys.
	Sailor Venus smiled, and stepped forward, "You're back?"
Honoria nodded, and held out the henshin stick, and Sailor Venus 
touched it.  Her eyes widened, but then she smiled at Honoria, 
"Let's go home."


	Mamoru was driving the packed car, and Minako and 
Honoria were squished in the corner, closest to the window.  They 
were both holding onto the henshin stick, and Honoria looked at 
Minako, "We'll show them."
"We'll show them all."  Minako agreed, nodding.  "Then we can get 
back Adalys."  They both stared at the glowing henshin stick, their 
eyes glinting red.


	Sailor Pluto watched, "Another dimension down the 
tube.  Only a matter of time before it's destroyed from the 
inside...maybe that dimension with male senshi might 
work."  She shrugged, and kept staring at the orb.  A huge 
explosion rocked the ground, and Pluto looked in the orb, 
"There goes the dimension with senshi slaves for vampires.  
That's going to take a while to clean up..."



The end!!  That's the end of the Sailor Earth saga.  Well, it's not 
really the end, but hey...if you want more, e-mail me at 
NeoMoon42@aol.com.  I like the thought of male senshi, 
does anyone else?  I've thought about if the senshi were each 
kidnapped by a vampire, the vampires, of course, being the 
Generals.
Got any ideas you want me to write?  Need some ideas 
for you to write?  I have a whole head full, I also do little 
kids parties, I dress like a clown and everything!  Okay, 
maybe not that last part...

Send all comments, critism, marriage proposals and death 
threats to NeoMoon@aol.com, and in place of a marriage 
proposal, you could just send the adress to a shrine you 
built in my name.
Also, I tried to play Naoko, and tried to make a original 
story out of a old and tired story idea, so please e-mail me
and tell me if it was too used, or was it good.  In case you 
can't tell, I was using that first part out the phrase, "I tried 
to play God," see Naoki is so close....joking.  Sort of...
	Anyway, it's a odd little twist, I know.  Expect more.
