Chapter 11

On Vegeta's ship...

"What happened to that girl?!" Vegeta shouted. "I'd better get to Earth. She might be in trouble."

He walked over to the guidance computer and punched in the new coordinates. "There, straight to Earth." He looked at the estimated time until he reached Earth and his mouth dropped open. "What?!?! Three months?!?!? I can't wait that long! She needs my help right now!" A low growl escaped his throat. There was nothing he could do though. 'I have to be in tip top shape when I get there!' He thought, turning on the gravity machine. He started to work out, and before he knew it, he had forgotten all about Usagi and just

concentrated on becoming stronger.

Back inside the palace where the scouts were lost...

"Which way Mercury!" Sailor Venus asked.

"I I'm not sure." She said, her computer was still broken. As they wandered through the palace, she was trying to fix it. "My computer still isn't working."

"Look!" Cried Sailor Jupiter. "There's an opening!"

They all saw the light pouring through a doorway. "Let's go!" Cried Sailor Venus. All of the scouts ran towards the doorway. When they stepped through the doorway, they realized that it was a trap.

"Oh no! Look out!" Sailor Pluto cried, as a net was thrown over them. Sailor Pluto was the only scouts that the net hadn't covered. She tried to help the other scouts out from under it, but was thrown against the wall. She cried out in pain and tried to get up.

"I'm coming girls! Hang on!" She cried, limping towards them. She reached them and managed to get them all out.

"Very good. But can you get out of this one?" A voice was heard though out the palace.

"That voice sounds familiar." Sailor Mercury said to herself. Just then, she felt herself falling. "Ahhh!" She cried as she felt herself falling. She thought she would be in there forever, but then she fell to the ground with a thud. "Oww!" She cried out when she hit the bottom. "Where am I? What happened?" She looked around and realized that she was all alone. She stood up and looked around the room. She stood in long hallway. It was lit up only with a few candles. It was so dark and gloomy down there. "Where is everyone? Hello? Is anyone there?" She called into the gloom. "I can't just stand around here. That won't do the Princess any good. I've got to keep on moving." With that said, she began to walk down the hallway.

Back to the rest of the scouts...

"Sailor Mercury!" Sailor Jupiter and all the rest of them cried when she fell through the floor. "Where'd she go?"

They heard that evil laughter again. It echoed though out the whole palace, sending chills down all of their backs.

"They're trying to split us apart!" Sailor Pluto cried out. "We have to stay together. It's no good if only one of us finds the Princess because it's going to take everything we've got to beat them."

"Right!" The rest of them cried in unison. They stuck together and walked into another room. It was another maze.

"Oh no!" Sailor Jupiter cried when she felt the floor beneath her feet give way. She wasn't going to go so easily though. She grabbed the edge of the hole on the way down. "Help me!" She cried. Sailor Venus ran to her and grabbed her arms, but missed. Sailor Jupiter was holding on with one hand and they couldn't quite reach her.

"Almost there!" Sailor Venus said, reaching for her hand. Then the top came down on Sailor Venus, forcing her into the hole as well. She hit Sailor Jupiter, and the two of them were falling. They both screamed the whole way down and fell to the floor below.

"Oww!" Sailor Venus cried, rubbing her sore butt. "That really hurt!"

"Are you all right Sailor Venus?" She asked.

"Yes, I'm all right, how about you?" She asked.

"I'm all right." She said, helping Sailor Venus up. "This isn't good. How are we going to find the others?"

"I ... I don't know." Sailor Venus said. "This is really bad."

Back to the rest of the scouts...

"Stay close everyone." Sailor Pluto said. "We can't all get separated. We have to stay together."

"Right!" The remaining scouts said.

"Just watch your step closely. We can't afford have the rest of us separated." Sailor Neptune said, walking slowly in front of Sailor Uranus.

The made their way though the maze and had to turn around several times.

"We're never going to get out of this!" Sailor Saturn cried out, stopping at a dead end. She used her Silence Glaive, and broke some of the dark crystal from the ceiling.

"Look out!" Sailor Pluto cried, pushing Sailor Saturn out of the way. The dark crystal fell right on Sailor Pluto. "Ahhh!" She cried out in pain. "Get this off of me!!" She yelled, struggling under the weight of the crystal. The dark energy began to seep into her body, weakening her. "Hurry!"

The three scouts took different sides and slowly lifted the crystal, just high enough to pull her out from underneath it. Sailor Pluto was left weak and barely able to move.

"Are you all right Sailor P?!?" They demanded, standing over her body.

"I... I don't know." She said, trying to sit up. She wasn't able to. "I think I broke something. I can't sit up."

"What do we do?" Sailor Saturn asked.

"Leave me. I won't be any help." Sailor P said.

"No way!" Sailor Uranus yelled. "We can't leave a friend behind." She said, trying to get Sailor P on her feet. "Don't give up so easily!" She cried.

With Sailor Neptune on one side and Sailor Uranus on the other, they made their way through the maze with Sailor P. It was very slow, though.
