			     By: Sarah J. Gates



1. Ext. Ruins of Serenity keep.  Night.
Sailor Charon: Hmm...  This place could be cleaned up a bit.  Other than that,
I think it's the perfect place!
Sailor Miranda: Hai!  If we could get the fountains working again, it would be
beautiful!
Sailor Pheobe: We at least owe Queen Serenity a total redecoration of the keep.
Sailor Metis: Yeah.  She deserves it.  Anyway, lets get started!
Sailor Metis pulls out her amethyst as it glows.  Suddenly an illusory overlay
covers the ruins.
Sailor Metis: So, whatcha think?
Sailor Calypso: Sailor Calypso like!  Sailor calypso like!
Sailor Pheobe: It is quite fashionable.  I'm sure it would be the way Queen
Serenity would've rebuilt it.
Sailor Calypso: Hai!  Serenity-sama say to Sailor Calypso "Should something
happen castle, rebuild like it was."
Sailor Charon: I think it's perfect!
Sailor calypso: Let's start rebuild!  Maybe get done in a little while.
Sailor Deimos: With what materials?
Sailor Charon: Since we don't have that many materials, we can just improvise.
Sailor Charon picks up a piece of marble.
Sailor charon: Gem Process Action.
Gem: No energy to process.  Please input procedure for process.
S. Charon: Duplicate and extend.  Make it like the way it was before Beryl.
S. Charon's jewel: processing.  Please wait 10 minutes.
Each sailor starts to repeat this process with a piece of marble or rock.  Soon
the castle is mostly complete.
Sailor Calypso: Now all need is water, but I take care of.
S. Calypso pulls out a canteen of water.  She pours a drop on the gem.
Sailor Calypso: Gem Process Action.
Gem: Extending and duplicating, Calypso.  Please wait.......
2. Ext.  Rei's temple.  midafternoon.
Rei is chasing after Shira, while Shoko is looking for Boni, who is hiding
behind a tree, trying to see Mani, who is right behind her.
Rei: I'm gonna get you!
Shira: Nyahnyahnyahnyahnyah!  You can't catch me!
Rei catches up with Shira and tags her.
Rei: Ha!  You've gotta help me tag the other two.
Shira: Okay.
Shira sneaks up on Mani and tags her.  She immediately jumps and tags Boni.
Mani: Okay!  Boni's it this time.  Rmember, count to twenty, ask if everybody's
ready, then try to tag us.
Boni: okay. (covers her eyes and faces the treee)  1.... 2.... 3.... 4.... 5...
. 6.... 7.... 8.... 9.... 10.... 11.... 12.... 13.... 14.... 15.... 16-17-18-
19-20!	Is everybody ready? (no answer) I guess so.  Here I come!
Boni looks around.  Shira quickly runs to hide behind one of the temple walls,
giggling slightly.  Mani sneaks behind Boni and goes behind the tree.  Rei
tries to sneak by, but she steps on a twig.  Boni hears the snap and turns
around to tag her.  She manages to barely tap her.
Boni: Now you have to help me tag people.
Rei nods and sneaks behind the wall Shira is hiding behind.  she tags her.
Rei: Gotcha!
Just then, Mani sneaks to the other wall and hides behind  it.
Shira: Oh, well...  I may as well go find Shoko..
Shira sneaks around the temple, then looks inside.  She turns her head from
left to right.	A figure runs past.  Shira holds her hand out and catches it.
As the figure slows down, we see it is Shoko.
Shoko: You found me!
Shira: Of course.  After 10 years, I have studied, and learned by heart your
hiding pattern in this game.
Shoko: Naturally...
Shira: Anyway, we still need to find Toni and Mani.  You go this way (points
to the left) and I'll go the other.
Shoko nods.
3.  Int. Tsukino Household. Day.
Chibi-Usa hears a knock on the door.  She opens it and standing before her is
Mamoru.
Mamoru: Hello, Chibi-Usa.  Is Usagi in?
Chibi-Usa: (thought) Hmm...  Something bothers me.  Normally he wants to stay
*away* from Usagi.  (said) Uh, no.  She went out to the mall to shop a bit, and
try to find the newest Sailor V game.
Mamoru: oh.  I guess I'd better go find her. (runs off)
Chibi-Usa closes the door.  Usagi walks down from upstairs.
Usagi: Who was that?
Chibi-Usa: Oh, nobody...
Usagi: Oh, okay.. (yawns)  I think I'll go shopping later, with Rei and the
others.
Chibi-Usa: Can I come?	I don't get to go shopping that much on the weekends.
Usagi: (thinks a moment)  Alright, just don't cause trouble, 'kay?
Chibi-Usa: I promise.  I want to get some new clothes, and maybe a pair of
earrings...  Oh, and some shoes...
Usagi: I get your point, Chibi-Usa.
4. Int. Shopping Mall food court.  Day.
Sunlight shines in through the glass windows on the ceiling and right onto the
table where Minako, Makoto, and Ami are sitting.  There are three cups half-
empty, three hamberger wrappers, one empty (the one in front of Makoto), and
the rest have almost eaten burgers.  Makoto is resting her head on her hand
while leaning on her elbow which is on the table.
Makoto: Bored bored bored.  This is so boring.	Not a monster or arcade in
sight..
Minako: Or at least not an _open_ arcade in sight...
Ami: We could always go study for next months test....
Makoto: Ami, it's a month away.
Ami: True, but if we study now, we won't have to study the day before.
Minako: I don't think we're quite _that_ bored, but if nothing happens in a
bit, we probably will be.
5. Ext. Rei's temple.  day.
They all scatter about, trying to keep away from each other, during the second
round.	Usagi comes up the stairs with Chibi-Usa at her side.  She looks from
left to right, looking for everybody.  Chibi-Usa also looks around for them.
Usagi: I don't see anybody here.  Maybe they went on to the mall?
Chibi-Usa: I don't think so.  Maybe they're just inside.
Usagi nods.  Rei sneaks up behind them and taps them on the shoulder. CHibi-Usa
and Usagi jump.  Rei smiles ^_^ at them as they turn around to look at her.
rei: Gotcha!
Chibi-Usa: Very funny...
Mamoru comes up to Shira while she is not looking.  The camera zooms in, and
shows that Mamoru's intent is not exactly friendly.  Mani turns around and
looks at Mamoru.
Mani:  Look out, Shira!
Shira turns around amd swings her arm.	She manages to get Mamoru in the
stomach.
Mamoru: Argh!
Shira covers her mouth with both of her hands.
Shira: (stifled slightly) Oh!  I'm sorry Mamoru!  I didn't mean to..  Really.
It's just that Mani shouted to me...
Mamoru exchanges a cold glare with Shira, but regains his composure.
Mamoru: (seeming to be holding back a little) There is no need for an exp-
lanation.
Mani: (walks up to shira and whispers in her ear) Don't trust him!  It's just a
trap.  He isn't the Mamoru that is Tuxedo Kamen.
Shira whispers back.
Shira: Mani!  I can't believe you!  He seems like the real Mamoru, and that's
proof enough that he is.
Mani: Just head this warning: If you do trust him, be careful about what you
trust him with.
Shira looks back at Mamoru
Shira: I'm sorry.  Mani can be quite annoying...
Mamoru: Like I said, there is no need for explanations.
Shoko walks up.
Shoko: So what brings you here?  I mean, nothing interesting is going on for
miles.
Mamoru grins slightly.
Mamoru: You don't know how interesting that it's going to get.	(A wind starts
to blow about him, drawing the leaves into something similar to a spiral.)
Morpher Intsu: I sure hope you were prepared to fight, Moon Senshi.
Mani: I know one thing that I was prepared for, if not a fight.
M. Intsu: Oh yeah?
Mani: Yes.  You.
Usagi: How dare you pretend to be Mamoru!  I won't let you get away with that!
Moon crystal Power!
Rei: Yeah!  Mars Star Power!
Ami and the others walk in as they are transforming.
Ami: Mercury Star Power, Make up!
Minako: Venus Star Power, Make Up!
Makoto: Jupiter Star power, make Up!
	    <<< 	Typical SM transformations.	    >>>
Each Moon Senshi pulls out their gems.
Boni: Phobos Gem Power, Make up!
Toni: Triton Gem Power, Make UP!
Mani: Mimas Gem Power, Make up!
Shira: Europa Gem Power, Make Up!
Shoko: Io Gem Power, Make UP!
       <<<	   Typical Moon Senshi Transformations. 	   >>>
Sailor Europa: You won't escape from this battle, Morpher Intsu!
M. Intsu: Ah, but that's where you're wrong!  I will escape, with something
more than just my life/
Sailor Europa: Not if we can help it!  Europa tigers claw!
S. Europa pulls her gem from her tiara, and it turns into her sickle.
Sailor Triton:	Triton Jade Spear!
Sailor Mimas:  Mimas Pearl Sword!
Sailor Io:  Io Opal Staff!
Sailor Phobos:	Phobos Granite Axe!
Each Moon Senshi removes their jewels and they turn into their weapons.
S. Jupiter: I'll take care of this trash!  Sparkling Wide Pressure!
     <<<    Sailor Jupiter's Moon Sparkling Wide pressure attack.    >>>
Morpher Intsu: Ha!  Stupid Sailor Jupiter!  Don't you know that you will just make
me stronger by doing that?
M. Intsu absorbs  all of the energy Sailor Jupiter released at him when she
blasted him with lightning.  He swells slightly and grows more muscular. Sailor
Europa's eyes widen O.o
Sailor Europa: Oh, ___SHOOT___!  Run!
Morpher Intsu collects a ball of energy in his hands as the sailors start to
scatter.  He releases it and it hits the ground.  The impact of the energy
causes the sailors to be knocked off of their feet.
Sailof Moon: Ooof.....
as the screen pans out, we see that Sailor Europa dropped her sickle near
Morpher Intsu when she was knocked off of her feet.  Morpher Intsu bends over
to pick it up, but his hand is met by a red rose.
Tuxedo Kamen: I don't suggest you take that.
Tuxedo kamen jumps down from a tree.
M. Intsu: How'd you get out?  Oh, no matter.  You can't stop me now that I have
the energy Sailor Jupiter gave me.
Morpher Intsu swings an arm at Tuxedo Kamen, knocking him into a tree.	M.
Intsu grabs the sickle as Tuxedo Kamen recovers.
T. Kamen: Itai...
Morpher Intsu: Ha! (fades into the ground)
Sailor Europa stands still.  She looks slightly dumbfound and shattered.
S. Io: I swear>...!  If i ever se that slimy scum again I'll......!
S. Jupiter: Calm down!
S. Venus: Yeah.  We know you want to get back at that guy, but you can cool
your jets about it.
Sailor Io: If I see anything of his, it's gonna be toast!
Suddenly, Sailor Europa's uniform melts into her regular clothing.  Shira
looks down towards the ground.
6. Marble room.  Day.
M. Intsu fades into view and produces a sickle.
Morpher Inma: Very impressive.	To be quite frank, I didn't think you could pull
it off.
Morpher Intsu: Sometimes, you underestimate me *too* much.
Morpher Inma: Well, either way, you still did a good job.  Did you finish off
the little brat who had the gem?
M. Intsu: D'oh!  I knew I forgot something!
M. Inma: Maybe I didn't underestimate you _enough_....
Morpher Intsu: Very funny, Inma.  You just crack me up..
Morpher Inma:Just go finish the job.  Maybe if you do the job right, I might
allow you to take care of Io as well.
Morpher Intsu: Oh, joy......
M. Intsu fads out of view.
Morpher Inma: I just hope he does well.  Oh, well, if he doesn't, I can always
send Kunzite after him.
The sickle that Morpher Intsu left dissappears.
7. Int. Rei's temple. Living room. night.
Morpher Intsu reforms in the living room of rei's temple.  The five moon senshi
are scattered about, covered with different types of blankets.	he spots Shoko,
her braided auburn hair tied up so it won't come undone.  Then he spies shira,
her short, blond hair down about her shoulders.  She us sitting up looking at
the moon.
Shira: I've failed you, Queen Serenity.  I've let my enemies get my gem, and
now I can't fight.  I'm so sorry. (she sounds like she is about to cry)
Morpher Intsu walks up behind her.
M. Intsu: The fact that you failed your Queen is not half your problems!
Shira turns around slowly and goes wide eyed O.o as Morpher Intsu prepares to
strike.
Shiar: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAH!
There is a flash near the moon and a glowing object falls next to shira.  She
picks it up and hears a voice, Queen Serinity.
Queen Serenity: This is your new gem.  Use it and the new power that comes with
it wisely.  Say "Europa Gem Power, Make Up", as you always do, and say "Europa
tigers claw", as you always do, and I will give you further instructions on
how to use it's power.
Shira picks up the gem and nods to herself.
Shira: Europa Gem Power, Make Up!
Shira holds up her gem.  Her leotard part of her uniform forms in a flash of
lightning.  Then her gloves with the same effect, and her boots.  The whole
screen flashes and the ribbon on her back, her skirt, her shoes, and her
earrings are all there.  She places the gem on her forehead and her tiara forms
around it.  She smiles and strikes a pose.
Morpher Intsu: Eh?  I took your gem,!  You can't transform!
Sailor Europa: I can and I did!  Europa Tigers Claw!
Sailor Europa removes her whol Tiara as it turns into a glob of gook.  It then
reforms as a sickle with a hnadle made of tiger-eye and a hook of gold.
Queen Serenity: Now, say "Jupiter Lightning Charge!"
S. Europa: Now I'm going to make sure you don't do this to any more of my
friends!  Jupiter Lightning Charge!
Sailor Europa holds sickle above her head.  A bolt of lightning strikes it.
It glows, crackling with electricity, but Sailor Europa seems unharmed.
She slashes at Morpher Intsu and hits.	Some of the electricity is transfered
to him.
M. Intsu: Argh!
This noise wakes up Shoko who rubs her eyes.  she feels around for her gem and
finds it.  she stands up tiredly and holds up her opal.
Shoko: Io gem power (yawns) make up...
	  <<<	  Typical sailor Io transformarion.	  >>>
Sailor Io: (yawns) Okay, morpher, you're not going to get a(yawn)way with waking
me up!	Io opal staff.
Sailor Io turns her gem into her staff.
Sailor Io charges Morpher iNtsu with her staff head-on.  Morpher Intsu manages
to dogde, but is caught by Sailor Europa.  She shoves him out the door, and he
rolls around on the ground.  Sailor Io and Europa jump down, intending to finish
the fight.
Sailor Io: We can do this the easy way...
Sailor Europa: ....Or the hard way.
Sailor Io: Your choice.
Morpher intsu: I'd much rather have the hard way.
Sailor Europa: Okay then!  One hard way coming right up!
Sailor Europa swings her sickle at M. Intsu as if to chop him down like a bit
of wheat in a field.  He carefully molds himself so that there is an empty space
where the sickle is moving.
M. Intsu: Is that the _best_ you can do, Sailor Europa?
Sailor Io: We haven't (gets cut off as Morpher Intsu tosses her aside with a
molded tendril)... Itai..
Sailor Europa looks over at her fallen sister.
S. Europa: Io!	Are you okay?  Aah! (she falls down to the ground as morpher
Intsu pulls her feet out from under her with his tendrils.)  Ooof...
Morpher Intsu molds even more tendrils and picks up each sailor.  He squeezes
them both, tightening his grip.  Sailor Europa, still holding a lightning
charged sickle, tries to touch the hook of it to a tendril.  carefully sliding
it down, she manages to touch it.  the lightning travels from the sickle to the
tendril, and on to Morpher Intsu's body.  This transfere continues until Morpher
Intsu unwraps his tendrils from around Io and europa.
Morpher Intsu: Aaaarg!
Sailor Io: Now for my idea of fun! (she brings her staff crashing down on Morph-
er Intsu's head)
Morpher Intsu: Ouch...!
Sailor Europa starts to run around morpher Intsu as Sailor Io keeps him preocu-
pied.  She hacks at each tendril and avoids them when they try to grab her.
Sailor Io: Hey!  Where'd you learn that trick?
S. Europa: After not having the luxury of my spirit being sent to the future,
living in battle, and being reincarnated ten times over, you learn things.
Sailor Io nods.
S. Io: Yes.  You sure do.
8. Marble room.  Day.
Morpher Inma: Hmm...  I sense that another force, related to the Dark Kingdom
is here.  Kunzite, could you go take a look at it?
Kunzite steps forward and nods.
Kunzite: Yes, Mistress.
Kunzite then dissappears into thin air.
9. int. Room filled with mirrors. Day.
Ruebeus: Petz, could you do me a favor?
Petz emerges from a mirror.
Petz: Sure.  What do you need?
Ruebeus: I need you to take a look at an energy surge.	It seems to be related
to the Dark Kingdom, but we can never be too careful about who we trust.
Petz: Of course.  I'll go take a look at it right away.
Petz steps back into the mirror.
10. Ext. Rei's Temple.  Night.
Petz appears out of nowhere, right in the middle of the battle between the two
sisters and Morpher Intsu.  Right now, Io and Europa are bruised and banged up
a bit, but they seem to be okay, compared to Morpher Intsu.  As Petz arrives,
the commosion slows down a bit as they all look at her hovering in air.
Petz: (Thought) Hmmm...  Definately from the Dark Kingdom..
Sailor Io: Who're you, green haired, poor excuse for Dark Kingdom waste?
Petz: I'm Petz, you annoying little brat!
Sailor Europa: *whistle* man, somebody here needs a nap.
During this time, a scorched, bruised and slashed Morpher Intsu heals a little
and reforms as a giant tiger, ready to pounce the two sailors.	Now, Kunzite
appears.
Sailor Europa: What is it today?  Wierdo-o-rama fest?
Kunzite: Ha ha.  I'm here on order of Morpher Inma to take a look at the power
source that she detected.
Morpher Intsu pounces, and since Sailor Io and Europa duck, he pounces Kunzite,
who was standing behind the two.
Kunzite: I didn't know you cared....
Morpher Intsu reforms as a human.
M. Intsu: I _don't_.
Morpher Intsu brushes himself off and gets up.
Petz: Ahem..  I'd like... (gets cut off)
Sailor Io walks up to Kunzite and nudges him with her elbow.
Sailor Io: (stage whispered to Kunzite) He does care, he's just trying to hide
it from you...
S. Europa walks up to M.Intsu and nudges him with her elbow.
Sailor Europa: (stage whispered to M. Intsu) He hates your guts, he just doesn't
want you to know....
Morpher Intsu walks up to Kunzite.  He clenches his fist.
Kunzite: You do care!
Morpher Intsu: (while Kunzite is talking) You hate me!
Morpher Intsu throws a punch at Kunzite.  They start to argue.
Petz: (as she stomps her foot in the air) _DO YOU MIND?!?!_
The two stop arguing and look up at Petz.
M. Intsu and Kunzite: (in unison) what?
Petz: I'd like to ask you a few questions...
Kunzite: Oh.  What do you want to know?
Petz points to Morpher Intsu.
petz: For one, who are you?
M. Intsu: Who, me?  I'm Morpher Intsu of the Dark Kingdom.
Petz: (thought) Ruebeus was right, it is related to the Dark Kingdom...
Kunzite: is that all?
Petz nods and fadees out.  The arguement picks up again.  Sailor Io and Europa
giggle uncontrolably in the background.
	    <<< 	Typicla SM ending.	>>>
