Takanera Moshi slowly made her way up the steps of the Hikawa Jinja. She paused to look around, totally in awe of the temple surroundings. The place looked as if it was swept every hour every day. Taking a deep breath, she tried to adjust her pink jacket, skirt, and then her pink tie. She clumsily dropped her handbag as she nervously glanced around. Out of the corner of her eye, a blonde blur approached her babbling.

"Konnichi wa! Mo-chan! I couldn't wait for you to come back! That is such a kawaii fuku you're wearing. What kind of school do you go to? I bet it's better than Juuban! Ahh we must go shopping sometime! I love your hair, it's like mine! That is one beautiful necklace!.."

Moshi could only pick out a few words, like 'shopping,' and 'hair.' Usagi was going way too fast for her to understand. "Slow down Usagi-san I can't understand you!!"

A slow grin crept across Usagi's youthful face. "Usagi-san? Why are you calling me that? Call me Usagi-chan!!!" she draped one arm over Moshi's shoulders and led her inside the temple to Rei's room where the rest of the Senshi were waiting. Once inside a second blonde blur attacked Moshi. Minako rushed over looking at her fuku, claming it was better than the one she had to wear everyday, and how she would trade her favorite red ribbon to wear Moshi's fuku for a day.

Soon all the Senshi started talking, asking questions, and touching her hair. It got so overwhelming that Moshi screamed for them to quiet.

"Now that's better," Moshi said. "I can only answer one question at a time!!" she huffed, these girls seemed to be too much for her to handle. She slowly turned to Usagi and said, "OK Usagi-san you first!"

Usagi grinned and jumped up. "OK, 1. Why are you calling me Usagi-san? 2. How long have you been wearing your hair like that? 3. What do you use to henshin with? 4. What school do you go to? 5. Any boyfriends? 6. um..er...I think thats it."

"Well 1. It's a sign of respect, but if you prefer chan I will call you Usagi-chan. 2. As long as I could remember 3. I use this necklace, my henshin necklace 4. I go to Yakomoto Jr. High on the other side of town. I may transfer to Juuban soon. 5. um none." Upon answering the last question she blushed, causing the others to laugh.

Ami jumped up next, her short blue hair flew about her face as she talked. "I only have one question, are you serious about your studies?" Usagi groaned knowing that question would have came out sooner than she thought, thanks to Ami-chan and her one track mind.

"Hai, Ami-san..er chan, I want to study biology and become a biologist," Moshi dreamily answered, her violet eyes becoming glittery.

"Ok, do you know any kind of fighting skills?" Makoto asked with hope that she found a new sparring partner, Rei sometimes got out of hand with those papers. Moshi smiled and walked over to the window where Rei kept some small plants. She looked at the plants the beautiful, healthy green leaves stretched out towards the sunlight. She saw that one small one, was turning brown and withered looking. Sighing to herself, she reached out and touched it. The small plant suddenly turned green and a beautiful red flower appeared. It was a rose. The girls gasped, they've never seen anyone do that with a flower before.

Makoto jumped up from her seat and walked over to Moshi. "Moshi-chan, how did you do that?" She glanced from Moshi to the flower, her jaw drooping in shock.

Moshi stammered, unsure of what to answer. "Well, It's part of my power. You see I have the powers of Life and it's energies. I only gave the flower a bit of my own life force to make it live longer," she turned back to the flower, her eyes glazing over, almost dream like.

Makoto was simply boggled with confusion.

Moshi blinked and looked at Makoto, as if suddenly remembering what she was going to say. "Um..I know a bit, something I picked up here and there," she answered nervously, not enjoying the look Makoto had on her face. Rei was about to ask her a question about what she just did, when Luna burst into the room.

Luna's ears twitched furiously as she yelled, "There's some trouble downtown, you must henshin and get there NOW. Chibiusa-chan is somewhere in the area!"

Ami jumped up and threw her hand into the air. "Mercury Star Power, make up!" Icy waters flowed around Ami as her clothing changed into the fuku of Sailormercury.

Quickly following suit, Rei called out, "Mars Star Power, make up!" Flames surrounded the shinto maiden. Her dark hair flowed about her shoulders as her fuku was formed, turning her into Sailormars.

Makoto winked at Moshi and then said, "Jupiter Star Power, make up!" Bolts of lightning flashed and thunder roared, turning Makoto into the Senshi, Sailorjupiter.

Minako grabbed her henshin pen and poked Usagi. "Venus Star Power, make up!" A yellow light filled the room as Minako became Sailorvenus.

The front clasp on Usagi's brooch opened, revealing the stone inside. Striking her finger against the stone, causing it to make a tingling sound, she said, "Moon cosmic power, make up!"

After witnessing each Senshi's henshin in shock, Moshi pulled her necklace from under her tie and called out, "Earth planet power, make up!" The Senshi watched on while Moshi transformed. Her small body became consumed by tiny infinity symbols that emerged from her necklace. Her necklace glittered brightly in a warm tan color and then vanished as her tiara appeared. The tan stone winked, finalizing her transformation. She opened her eyes noticing them watching.

"Well what are we waiting for, Chibiusa might be in danger!" she raced outside, bounding down the stairs in two leaps. The rest of the Senshi followed Sailor Earth as she took to the roofs, leaping with the grace of a cat. When they approached downtown, Mercury turned on her visor, searching for Chibiusa.

"See anything Mercury?" Sailorvenus asked, her golden orange skirt, fluttering slightly in the breeze. Behind her, Sailorjupiter started pacing, arms folded behind her back, and her eyes taking a hard edge.

"No I don't see her, we may have to get a bit closer," Mercury responded, typing quickly on her computer. A gasp brought her attention back to what was going on.

"What is that?" Sailormoon gawked as she walked to the edge of the roof and pointed down at the street. A large figure was quickly moving through the town, draining people of their energy. The creature looked like a giant bug of some sort. Any person touched by its feelers quickly fell to ground, devoid of their energy.

A sense of Deja vu washed over Sailorearth. She thought she had dealt with this creature before. She didn't know that he would return; this time to finish what he started.

"No, not you again!" Sailorearth whispered harshly and leaped down to the ground where the creature was approaching. Jupiter quickly followed in case Earth might have needed help.

"I thought I got rid of you a long time ago, Glutius!" she yelled, deftly ducking one of the creature's deadly feelers.

"Obviously not, since I am still here," he cackled in return, trying to hit Sailorearth with one of his blasts. He had his back to the building where the rest of the Senshi were standing.

Taking a chance, Mercury attacked. "Shine Aqua Illusion!" Mercury's Illusion had no affect on the creature. He continued his rampage through the town, draining energy.

"We must team up!" Jupiter yelled to Venus, who nodded in response. Gritting her teeth, the wand of her tiara emerged, sending lighting coursing through her body. "Supreme Thunder!" As she unfolded her arms, arcs of lightning shot forwards to Glutius.

Venus held her hand up. As she pointed her finger, two crescent moons appeared. The moons folded into light, merging with her finger. "Crescent Beam!" she pointed at Glutius, sending a small point of light.

This also had no affect, he merely brushed it off as if it was a bit of fluff. Venus and Jupiter gawked at the creature, it seemed that nothing had affect on this monster. He calmly continued his rampage of building smashing and energy stealing. Refusing to take anymore of this Sailormoon descended from the building and stood in front of the beast.

"Stop right there! How dare you rampage through this town of innocent people, what have they done to you!" she paused, posing.

Glutius grunted, and replied, "Just who are you!?"

Sailormoon smiled and said, "I was waiting for that. Ai to seigi no. Seera fuku bishoujo sensh, Seeramuun! Tsukini kawatte, oshiokiyo!!"

He snorted, and laughed, wrapping his feeler around Sailormoon. She screamed as she felt her energy starting to leave her. Sailormars rushed over yelling, "Fire Soul!" With his attention turned to Sailormoon he wasn't ready for Mars' attack. With a loud yelp, he dropped Sailormoon. Sailorearth saw then that if she didn't attack him now, he would be unbeatable.

"I got you now, Life Force, Drain!" she yelled, aiming her attack for his head. The beast wailed in pain as the purplish light engulfed him slowly stealing the energy he had collected from the unfortunate citizens. Crumpling to the ground, he gasped for breath. The light contracted, pulling him into a tight ball.

A pale white mist started to waft from his body. Sailorearth closed her eyes as she took his life force away. She sighed as she could feel her powers started to charge up again. She turned to Sailormoon. "Sailormoon, Ima!"

Sailormoon gripped the Spiral Heart Moon Rod in her right hand as she started to go through the motions of powering up her attack. "Moon Spiral Heart Attack!" Her spiral attack created a large heart around Glutius, encasing him within. Suddenly the heart pushed past him, crushing his body. The wails turned into blood curling screams as Glutius dissolved into nothing.

Sailorearth breathed a sigh of relief, but the next thing she heard brought chills to her system. His evil chuckle reached the Senshi's ears as he threatened, "You haven't seen the last of me, especially you Sailorearth!"

Sailorchibimoon suddenly then appeared running for Sailormoon, crying. Sailormars glanced at Sailorearth, wondering about the new Senshi. She turned to Sailormercury who silently nodded, obviously thinking the same thing. Each Senshi transformed back and quietly they left for home, with a sobbing Chibiusa. Moshi quietly stood back, pondering what was happening now.
