"What a trippy day!" Rachel exclaimed as she burst into her room and flopped onto her bed.

"How so?" Diana and Tigger asked in unison.

"I swear I'll never get used to that. Anyway, there was a monster in the art room. And Tigger, remember Mica? She's Sailor Virgo." Rachel blurted.

"Any other new senshi?" Tigger inquired.

"No, none yet. But I have a feeling we'll find everyone and be ready to go in no time at all."

~oO Oo~

"Hey guys, what's up?" Kourtinay walked over to where Anne and Rachel were sitting in the quad. Kourtinay was the only black girl in their group. Rachel briefly wondered why, then remembered that Kourtinay was also one of the few brave women who dared enter the clique known as the Anime Freaks; a group usually only associated with constant
screaming, giggling, running around, and food theivery. In fact, very few people dared enter the circle unless introduced. Not that there were any entrance requirements. It was just that about thirty school girls running around like rabid monkeys wasn't the most appealing of high school cliques.

"Nuttin' muh. Ou?" Anne replied with a mouthful of ramen. Anne's blue eyes peered through recently red dyed hair.

"I'm OK. Hey, remember Abby?" Kourtinay asked cheerfully.

"Yeah," the two replied in unison. Rachel recalled the short, brown haired girl who was always using the art teacher's dry erase markers to color the lenses of her glasses.

"She invited me to come up to her house this Saturday and I was wondering if you'd be interested in coming with."

"Sure if I can get a ride," Rachel replied.

"I'll get one of my parents to pick you up. Hey, Abby's not gonna go run off into the desert and start a bonfire again, is she?" Anne asked absently.

"I just hope she doesn't try to sacrifice me to Fenris again."

"Fenris?" Kourtinay asked.

"Norse wolf-god," Rachel stated matter of factly.

~oO Oo~

Saturday rolled around without a hitch, and Kourtinay, Rachel and Anne were situated around Abby's front porch. Abby was in the midst of doing her dance, which consisted of putting one hand on the back of her head, holding one leg back with her other hand, and jerking around in a circle wildly. Suddenly she stopped. Her eyes grew big and wide.

"Oooooo. Shiiiiiineeeey," and she pounced the miniscule piece of shining copper. Abby proceeded to knock the penny around, and when it slipped under the porch, she went after it.

"Holy shit!" Abby exclaimed as she jumped back from under the porch. A large creature, similar to the one in the art room, crawled out from under the porch. This monster more resembled a cross between a lobster and a spider, and was the color of old bruises. Rachel reached for her transformation pen.

"Libra constellation POWER!"

Rachel, now in full Sailor Libra garb, stood in front of her astonished friends.

"Libra heavenly THUNDER!"

The monster was affected but refused to back down. I can't do this alone, Rachel realized silently. As if an answer to her prayers, three new transformation pens appeared, accompanied by Sailor Antares' reassuring voice.

"Congratulations, Libra, you've found some new comrades. Abby,"

Abby twirled around in a circle a few times, looking for the source of the illusive voice.

"Abby... ABBY! Pay attention. You are Sailor Leo. Take the transformation pen... the red one... no, the other red one... yes, that's it." Abby had grabbed the red pen with the b (Leo) symbol. "Hold it up and say 'Leo transformation power'... NOT YET! Alright. Now, Kourtinay, you are Sailor Sagittarius. The other red transformation pen is yours. Hold it up and say 'Sagittarius constellation power'." Kourtinay took the remaining red pen with the f (Sagittarius) sign. "Anne..."

Anne snatched the remaining blue pen with the i (Pisces) symbol and cried out, "Pisces constellation POWER!" Antares sighed before her voice faded once again.

A blizzard of snowflakes whirled around her leaving her with dark blue bows and a white uniform with a gold tiara that held an opal. Her feet were situated in dark blue high heels.

Abby flung her pen around in the air for a while, the cried "Leo constellation POWER!" and caught it again.

Abby was enclosed in a streak of flames which downwards around her. She stood in an orange skirt and collar with neon yellow bows. She wore dark orange sneakers laced with light orange ribbons. Her tiara shined with a yellow sapphire.

Before Kourtinay could transform, Abby dashed into the house, leaving a very confused group, monster included. Abby reappeared moments later carrying a small Vegeta figure. She ripped off the heart shaped button on the front bow and replaced it with the figure. "That's better," she stated triumphantly, "I'm not Sailor Leo, I'm Sailor VEGETA!"

"Umm... Sagittarius constellation POWER!"

A small ring of fire surrounded her then rushed upwards. She re-emerged wearing a tuscan red uniform with dark yellow bows. She wore dark yellow, ballet-like shoes; a dark orange tiger's eye stone set in her tiara.

"Libra heavenly THUNDER!" Libra flung another lightening ball at the creature.

"Leo BITCHSLAP!" Leo ran up to the monster and started slapping at it. "What did you say about my mama? Huh? HUH?!" Leo cried hysterically. The monster held an arm in front of its face like an abused puppy.

"Abby, use a real attack!" Pisces complained.

"That was a real attack!" Leo replied.

"No, it wasn't!"

"Fine. Umm... Leo hell storm BLAZE!"

Abby held out one hand, above which floated a sizable fireball. She blew it at the monster, as if she were instead blowing a kiss. The monster jumped back as the fireball, which had grown larger, burned its flesh.

"Pisces blizzard FREEZE!"

Anne spun around gracefully like a figure skater and all around whirled snow, stuck, as it seemed, in a giant snow globe. From the delicate snowflakes formed menacingly sharp icicles that hurled themselves at the creature.

"Sagittarius flame ARCHER!"

Kourtinay pulled back the strings on a brilliant gold, ruby studded bow, holding the flaming arrow firmly, then letting it fly. It pierced the monster's heart and killed it instantly.

"I still like 'Leo bitch slap' better" Abby commented sullenly.
