SAILOR SUN

	First the disclaimer. Sailor Moon created by and belongs to
Naoko Takeuchi.

	Hi! This is the first time that I ever finished a story, so it may
get strange in some places. Just to make it clear in the beginning, I used
the Japanese version of Sailor Moon. So all the names and so on are from
the Japanese version.
	If you want send any comments, criticism, etc, e-mail me at
lauhwa@bergen.org because Im not on the list. So I wont get any comments
unless you send them to me. Oh, excuse any spelling errors. I am terrible
at spelling things right. Wait, one more thing could people help me out
with sounds. Crying, gasping, etc. Enjoy.

Chapter 1.1
	"Aaaaaaa," a girl cried out as she stumbled through a floating
swirling blue-white oval and onto the ground. She rolled away from the
oval and onto her feet to face a man-shaped fire that followed her. A hand
of fire reached out and she pulled away, making her curly fiery red hair
flare across her face. Suddenly she stumbled and fell backwards onto the
ground.
	"You can't escape," the fire spoke as he took a step towards her.
The girl glared with anger but didn't respond. "Your Family will die like
the royal family of the Moon which you couldn't protect, Sailor Senshi." A
laugh escaped the fire's moving lips. "Even with your powers, you couldn't
protect them. Queen Xana uses your powers more fittingly than you do." His
eyes flared an intense cold blue. "On your feet."

	A hand gripped her shoulder and shoved her back down into the
bushes. A auburn ponytail tied with a green round hairband swayed as she
whipped around to face the long black-haired girl.
	"She's one of us," Makoto said angrily.
	"I'm getting bad vibes from the girl," Rei responded.
	Mako stared for a minute, not fully understanding what Rei was
implying. "You're getting confused with that fire monster. She's a Sailor
Senshi. We have to help her." Mako 
started to get up again but Rei shoved her down.
	"Wait a minute. That thing of fire isn't going to kill her."
	"How the " Mako fell quiet as the girl's voice rung out.

	"No," the girl said quietly but filled with firm conviction. Her
foot struck out from underneath her flowing white dress and manfire fell.
The girl quickly moved out of harm's way and watched the fire monster
flowing up and laughing at her.
	"Such strength is admirable but it will fail you in the end. You
will come with me." The monster threw a flame at the peach scarf that was
tied about her neck. The girl yanked the burning scarf from her neck, not
concerning herself with the fire that burned her hand.
	"No. I will die first."
	"Foolish words." Hands of fire rose and wove a ring of fire in the
midnight sky. "Fire surround!" The ring burst forth and surrounded the 
girl within. "You have no choice."

	"I can't take it anymore." Mako rose from where she hide. "Jupiter
Star Power, Make Up!" A brilliant flash of green light enveloped Mako and
the sound of thunder could be heard. The flash died quickly as it had
appeared and where Mako had stood was the sailor-suited warrior woman,
Sailor Jupiter. Jupiter leaped over the bushes and dashed out into the
clearing of the park and the battlefield.
	"No! Wait for the rest of the Senshi!" Rei shouted, but followed 
Mako's lead. "Mars Star Power, Make Up!" Once again a brilliant flash of
light appeared but this time it was like the leaping flames of a
spiritual fire and crackle of the burning logs could be heard. She was
the warrior woman Sailor Mars.
	"Stop right there. I am Sailor Jupiter."
	"And I am Sailor Mars."
	"And we won't let you harm another Senshi." Jupiter and Mars said
together.
	"Fire Soul!" From Mars' clenched hands to her index fingers, a
comet of fire burst forth and flew at the monster. The comet struck and
vanished as it was drawn into the laughing manfire.
	"Look! I am made of fire. Will fire hurt me then?" A head of
flames shook at Mars. 
	"But I believe that they will harm you." Suddenly fireballs blazed
across the space from him to Mars. Mars took a step back but she was too
slow. She met the cement ground as another body struck hers. Heat passed
overhead as she struggled to get up.
	"Stay down!" Jupiter cried into her right ear as another fireball
passed overhead. Jupiter leaped to her feet, her emerald eyes flaring.
"That got me really mad. You're going to pay. Supreme Thunder Dragon!"
Crackingly, a dragon dove forth at the fireman, but again the attack was
drawn into the monster.
	"You can use lighting to start fires. Should I be afraid of
something that will start a fire?" The fireman waved and the dragon flew
out back towards them. The Senshi dashed out of the way as the dragon
struck a tree. Flames began to feed upon the tree.
	How were they going to defeat this monster? Where were the others?
Brief thoughts flashed through the Senshi's minds. They had to hold out.  
	As though their minds were linked, they attacked the fireman
simultaneously. The attacks flowed about him as he dodged and blocked.
"So weak. This cannot be the great Sailor  Senshi," the fireman said. The
temperature rose, driving back the two Senshi. Fireballs crashed at the
feet of the Senshi as they danced away. "I waste my time on you. This will
be ended now! Flame Tackle!" A flare of rising flame blinded the Senshi
for a moment.
	Sight returned, and a shout came from the ring of fire as the girl
jumped through. Her arms crossed in front of her face and rammed into the
fireman, driving him back. Tendrils of her dress and hair were aflame, but
died as she stopped and shoved the fireman into the murky waters of the
park lake. A moment passed before a dripping wet man appeared from the
waters and glared at the girl. He pushed the limp long black hair from his
face and brushed at his dark red uniform.
	"My new uniform is ruined. It is no matter. I will have what I was
sent to get."
	"Stop right there. We won't let you go around and trouble innocent
girls. Everyone has to right to walk in this beautiful moonlit night."
Three figures walked from the shadows.
	"I am the beautiful Sailor Moon." A warrior woman with two long
blonde odango atama-ponytails walked forward. She was dressed in a short
blue skirt and a short white shirt that had blue sailor flaps striped with
white. Red bows played on the back of her waist and on the neckline of her
shirt with a pink heart-shaped locket. A golden tiara with a red stone sat
upon her forehead.
	"I am erudite Sailor Mercury." A girl with short blue hair 
followed, wearing a darker blue variation of what Moon was wearing.
	"I am lovely Sailor Venus." This warrior wore a red ribbon in her 
long blonde hair and an orange version of what Moon was wearing.
	"We will punish you," they completed together.
	"Six against one. I don't care for these odds." The man rose above 
the lake. "I will be back for you, Sailor Sun. You have not won your 
freedom yet."
	"Come back here!" Jupiter shouted at the fleeing figure and 
started after him.
	"Jupiter."
	"What?" She half-turned around, her green skirt twirling.
	"He got away," Mercury replied. "And we can't catch up."
	"Good." The Senshi turned to face the voice and saw the falling 
Sun.
