Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon Sailor Stars: Chaos Theory

Act 31: The Royal Court of the Silver Millennium

Writing style is going to change a little, changing the tenses around.

Everyone was in high spirits leaving Rei's shrine. It was the end of the second day of their group study and most of them had completed their school assignments. Ami had completed all of her work, along with Yaten. Makoto and Minako still have several hours of school work to complete. Seiya and Usagi were halfway done. Rei enjoyed the company of everyone else while she read and worked on a few tasks for her private school. Their feelings of accomplishment quickly turned to anger at the sight of Haumea.

"I've been looking for you," Haumea said with a wicked grin.

Quarora appeared next to her, "So these are the little girls giving you such a hard time?" He eyed them closely. "They are much younger than I expected." His eyes narrowed when he saw Usagi. Haumea's description of the one they were after was unmistakable with Usagi's appearance. "The Guardian."

"Who are you?" Rei asked as he eyed the older man. He was a new face to them.

"Quarora," he responded without interest. "But we're not here to chat." He raised his hands over his head, a sign he was about to attack.

"Mercury Eternal, Make Up!"

"Mars Eternal, Make Up!"

"Jupiter Eternal, Make Up!"

"Venus Eternal, Make Up!"

"Fighter Star Power, Make Up!"

"Maker Star Power, Make Up!"

"Healer Star Power, Make Up!"

"Cosmos Crystal Power, Make Up!"

Quarora's attack separated the senshi into two groups. The Inner Senshi to the right and to the left the Starlights and Cosmos.

Haumea eyed Sailor Star Fighter carefully. The senshi stood next to Cosmos in a protective stance. Haumea thought it was funny considering Fighter was the one that would likely need the protection. However, her plan today was to go after Sailor Cosmos. She needed to know if what they suspected was indeed another weakness of Cosmos. If they needed to she could always go after Sailor Star Fighter again.

"I'll leave this to you," Quarora said as he turned around walking away and he disappearing into thin air.

Sailor Cosmos walked forward in front of the Starlights and the Inner Senshi. "This is my battle," she said, as she stood in the middle between Haumea and the other senshi. She didn't want to see anyone else hurt because of her. She knew she could defeat Haumea if they fought individually.

Haumea grinned. She took the bait. "I wouldn't have it any other way."

Quarora reappeared behind Sailor Cosmos without a sound. He smirked.

"Odango, behind you!" Sailor Star Fighter shouted, but there was little she could do. Everything happened too fast.

Sailor Cosmos turned around to face Quarora. She reacted exactly how he expected which made his plan easier to execute. Quarora sprayed her with a red colored mist. As soon as Sailor Cosmos inhaled some of the mist she began to cough. She felt like she could barely breathe. Between coughs she gasped for air. Her knees buckled beneath her and she hit the pavement hard.

The other senshi rushed to her aid, but there was little they could do. The Starlights reached her first and pulled Sailor Cosmos away from the mist. None of them were affected by the mist. For some reason, it seemed to only affect Sailor Cosmos.
