"Hey guys! Great news! Since we can no longer go swimming at the beach, unless you want to get really cold then I have found the alternate place!" Brooke said as she flipped through the morning paper. All of her friends turned to look at her. "At Cole Harbor Place! It has everything, from a massive water slid, hot tubs two swimming pools one a wave pool and shallow, and the other with 12 feet deep end and diving boards and a robe swing!"

Everyone looked at Brooke with wide eyes. "I say we go!" Alissa spoke out as she crawled over across Jessica's bedroom floor to look at the paper with Brooke. "How about tomorrow! That way it can give us something to do, because no one has plans yet do we?" She asked as she looked at each of her friends in turn.

"Nope." Replied Jessica.

"None for me!" Jennifer said loudly.

"Nor do I have any." Brooke said quietly.

"And I don't have anything going on either, so lets plan to go there tomorrow!" Alissa then turned to Jessica. "Do you think Kevin will be able to go? Or is he spending this weekend studying for another test?" Alissa asked as she went over and put an arm around the red head shoulders.

Jessica face lit up. "No he doesn't have anything planned this weekend, he doesn't have any big tests until the end of the month!" Jessica said excited, she quickly jumped up and knocked Alissa over in the process. "I am going to ask him!" she said as she ran out of the room and down the hall to his room.

Everyone turned to look at Alissa whom was knocked onto Jessica's bed then had managed to slid over and fall off the other head landing in a mangled heap of arms, legs, hair and blankets. An up roar of laughter broke out when the four heads of Jennifer, Brooke, Eclipse and Nova looked over at Alissa.

"Well now another failure!"  You two morons are getting us NOWHERE!" Emperor Valico yelled at the two demons that stood before him. "You have to find that last Stellar Scout before he Winter Solstice! I can not wait any longer then that, you all have seen what would happen, we will all be locked back in here again and have to wait for another chance!"

"Yes Emperor, we know this . . ." Kurai-ki was cut off short when Shi-ryuu stepped in front of his little brother and gave him an elbow in the chest.

"Well I have a new plan! Tell him MY plan Kurai-ki!" Shi-ryuu commanded as he gave another elbow to Kurai-ki's already battered chest. The smaller demon walked up holding his battered ribs.

"Yes Shi-ryuu's plan is to g to this building called a swimming pool, now that the beaches have been closed for the upcoming winter the teens have started to go to a pool called Cole Harbor Place. It is the hang out for everyone at this time. So Shi-ryuu thought that we could go there and attack the teenage girls and hopefully find the last of the Stellar Scouts." Kurai-ki explained.

The Emperor put a hand to his chin for a few moments. "Very well, carry on with this, but you had better get results! And SOON!" He screamed at the top of his lungs, the walls shook around them as the two demons backed away and left the room.

Out in the hallway Shi-ryuu turned to Kurai-ki. "That was the only plan you could come up with?" He demanded the answer as he pushed his younger brother up against the cold wall. "A swimming pool, lucky for you Emperor Valico thought that it was good enough!" She said as he delivered a punch to Kurai-ki's shoulder.

When Shi-ryuu backed away, giving Kurai-ki room to straighten up the small green demon spoke. "Well I didn't see you come up with anything!" He said smugly as he quickly made his exit in a swirl of leaves and small branches.

"Why you little!" Shi-ryuu shook a fist at the spot where Kurai-ki was only standing a few minutes ago. Then he heard shuffling behind him, and quickly turned around to see the beast. He rolled his eyes as he looked down at the dog like animal. "What do you want fido?" He asked as he leaned up against the wall with his arms crossed across his bare chest.

"No need to be so rude." she beast said through clenched teeth. "And don't worry about Kurai-ki he will come to his end sooner or later, don't you worry, it will come soon enough," as he turned towards the "dead end" Shi-ryuu followed. "We must talk the Mistress wants to have a word with you." The beast said as he disappeared onto the other side of the wall.

Shi-ryuu shrugged his shoulders and followed.

*                 *                 *                 *                 *

"Alright here comes the bus!" Alissa said as she jumped up from the bench and turned to her friends. "What a great way to spend a Friday night!" She said as she turned to face the oncoming bus that came to a gentle stop.

Everyone followed Alissa onto the bus, Jessica, Jennifer, Brooke, and Kevin. Dropping their money into the container at the front of the bus. Alissa couldn’t help but watch the money go around in a swirl before landing with a clanging noise as it hit the other money.

"I hate riding on busses, there are too many people." Brooke said quietly as she followed close behind Jennifer and piled into a seat behind her.

"No need to worry," she leaned over to Brooke ear. "Remember we are Stellar Scouts!" She said with a laugh as Brooke smiled and nodded her head, now feeling a bit better.

"Now we just have to keep our eyes open for our stop! We don’t want to miss it, this is going to be a long ride as it is." Jessica said as she sat down in a seat with Kevin at her side.

She leaned over and rested her head on Kevin’s shoulder. "I am so glad that you could come!" The red head said as she looked up at her boyfriend with loving eyes. Kevin smiled a smile that made Jessica melt right there. She clung in closer wanting to be completely surrounded by his strong arms.

Kevin bent down and gently kissed Jessica on her head and brushed her long strands out of her eyes. The pair sat like that for the fifteen-minute ride, and the silence was broken by Alissa’s loud call.

"We are here!" She said as she stood up and pulled the bus, the large bus came to a stop on the opposite side of Cole Harbor Place. The five of them piled out with a few other people, waiting at the crosswalk for the "walk" sign.

Walking across once the little figure on the light came up they went into the large brick building. The smell of chlorine filled each of their lungs. "Alright, I think we go down here to the changing rooms!" Alissa said as she turned towards the right.

"What was your first clue?" Jennifer asked, as they all looked at the sign in bold writing before them that said "Changing Rooms". They all laughed as Alissa put her head down and sighed.

The group walked down the hall. "I’ll see you out there Kevin!" Jessica said as she followed the other girls into the female changing room, when Kevin nodded and turned towards the males changing room.

Shortly after they all emerged at almost the same time, the stood on the pools edge, looking at all the different places. Trying to decided where they should go first. And all at once they started calling out answers.

"I want to go to the diving board." Brooke said quietly.

"I want to go to the hot tub!" Jessica said as she pointed in the direction of the hot tub.

"I want to go down the slide! It looks like so much fun!" Alissa said as she pointed at the long blue slid with wide eyes.

"Well I think I’ll be going over to the rope swing first!" Jennifer said as she watched as a kid jumped off the rope and landed into the water with a splash.

"I’ll go to the hot tub with Jessica." Kevin said as he put an arm around the red head shoulder.

"Alright so we are all going in different directions, where do you want to meet up at?" Jessica asked as she looked at each of her friends in turn.

"The diving board."

"The slide!"

"Rope swing!"

Brooke, Alissa and Jennifer all called out at once. Jessica hit her forehead with the palm of her hand. "How about we meet here in ten minutes, and we will all get to go to each of the spot in turn." Jessica suggested.

"Sounds good!" The three other girls called out at once then they turned and laughed.

"Ten minutes!" Jessica called after them as they each headed off in different directions. Then turned in Kevin she put out her hand, and the walked hand in hand to the hot tub that waited.

*                 *                 *                 *                 *

"So this is a swimming pool?" Shi-ryuu asked as he looked at the large building that stood before him, Kurai-ki rolled his eyes and nodded his head.

"Boy you have been gone from earth for longer then I had thought!" He said with a smirk, then quickly changing the subject. "Lets go, better now then never!" He said as he jumped off the building and was caught in a gust of wind by his wings as he soared over to the building.

Shi-ryuu followed as he clenched his teeth. Kurai-ki was getting too cheeky for his liking, something would have to be done about that and soon.

Kurai-ki made a crashing entrance as he flew through one of the large windows, people below screamed as they covered their heads and ran for safety, Kurai-ki smirked seeing how he had frightened all of the people.

Jessica, Kevin, Alissa, Jennifer and Brooke all looked towards the broken window from the different parts of the pool. All meeting up in front of the changing rooms looking around trying to find out what had crashed into the window and only heard screams coming from the far right corner where the wave pool was.

"Well this is earlier then ten minutes but lets get to it!" Jessica cried out as she ran into the females changing room and pulled out her transformation medallion from her pants pocket, she ran out with Alissa, Jennifer and Brooke, who were soon followed by Kevin from the males changing room.

Holding the transformation items above their heads Jessica lead her fellow Stellar Scouts.

"SOLARIS STAR . . . . ."

"DAYSTAR COSMIC . . . . . "

"POLLUX STAR . . . . ."

"CAPELLA STAR . . . . ."

"SHAULA STAR . . . . ."

Then all together they called out, "POWER!"

Jessica then closed her eyes. The Solaris Medallion disappeared into many little orange and gold sparkles; this caused her body to shimmer the colors of the sparkles as they fell onto her body.

Then her silver tiara appeared with the red jewel in the center. The jewel then emitted a blinding flash of orange light that surrounded Jessica giving her the feeling of the bright morning sun on her body.

Then a swirl of orange and gold sparkles warped around her body moving upward as it spun around her body. The body suit of her uniform then appeared. And the bows came out of the heart in the center of her chest. Sparkling golden rings then went around her feet forming boots. Then more sparkling rings went around her arms forming her gloves. Soon afterward the golden sparkles went around her waist forming her skirt.

At that point there was a large burst of golden sparkles that flew up into the air, when the sparkles fell to the ground Sailor Sun was then revealed fully transformed. She did her transformation pose. She stood there with one hand across her forehead and the other across her stomach with her legs together. Her long red hair then blew to the side.

The mist wrapped around counter clockwise around his body covering him from the eye. When the mist faded away Kevin was only a shadow. Then was an explosion above his head and small glittering yellow and maroon sparkles fell over his shoulders and his long cape appeared around his shoulders.

Then with a bright flash of golden light his armor appeared. Then he held his right arm to the sky and opened his eyes. Once his eyes were open a large powerful silver sword appeared in his hand, he then slid the saber into it's proper spot on his belt.

Alissa shouted out the phrase as she held her transformation item above her head. Alissa then closed her eyes then her transformation wand disappeared.

Her hair was then lifted off of her shoulders. I strong gust picked up and swirled around her. Then her silver tiara appeared with the white jewel in the center. The jewel them emitted a blinding flash of gray light that surrounded Alissa giving her the feel of a warm spring breeze blowing through her hair and across her face.

Then the swirling air divided into rings and two rings went around her body moving upward as it spun around her body. The body suit of her uniform then appeared. And the bow came out of the heart in the center of her chest. Gray rings of air went around her feet forming boots. Then more gray rings went around her arms forming her gloves. Soon afterward the gray air went around her waist forming her skirt.

At that point the wind picked up greatly, her hair was blowing wildly. From above a tornado came down and circled around Alissa blocking her from view. When the tornado died down and her hair slowly dropped back resting on her shoulders. Sailor Pollux was reveled fully transformed. She did her transformation pose. Her pose was her standing with both of her hands on her cheeks, looking very innocent and harmless. Her head was tilted a little bit to the side. Her legs were apart, one was a little ahead then the other.

Jennifer shouted out these words as she held her transformation medallion above her head. She then closed her eyes then her transformation medallion disappeared. Her hair was then lifted off of her back.

Then her silver tiara appeared with the green jewel in the center. The jewel them emitted a blinding flash of green light that surrounded the girl giving her the feel of leaves brushing across her face and around her body.

Then from the ground vines formed at the bottom of her feet. The vines then slowly moved up her body. Her legs were then covered from view. The vines continued to move up her body, her waist was then hidden, the vines continued to move up and they covered her upper body then they moved down her arms.

Then there was a large burst of green light and the vines started to move away from her body slowly moving down. The vines revealed her gloves then her body suit was formed. Next came her skirt and the vines completely disappeared and her boots were reviled. The heart in the center of her chest was reveled.

From the heart came more vines they formed her bow. Then the bow in her back appeared with the vines.

At that point more vines appeared and they grew upward. The vines keep growing up until they were above her head. They then began to wrap around her body causing a wall of vines around her. The vines tied into a point above Jennifer's head. When the vines died down and the girl's hair slowly drops back resting on her shoulders. And Sailor Capella was reveled fully transformed. She did her transformation pose. Her pose was her standing with her right arm stretched out in front of her. Her left arm is resting on her hip. Her head was tilted slightly forward. Her legs were together.

Brooke  shouted out the words as she held her transformation medallion above her head. Brooke then closed her eyes then her transformation medallion disappeared. Then her silver tiara appeared with the sea green jewel in the center. The jewel them emitted a blinding flash of sea green light that surrounded Brooke giving her the feel of her body being surround by the cool summer water.

Then from behind her a wave formed and crashed down on top of her, she didn't stir. Once the water resided, Brooke stood in it. A small bit of water at her feet moved up her knees forming boots, which were transparent. The water then slowly moved up her body. Her waist was then hidden beneath water, the form of her skirt could be seen the water continued to move up and it covered her upper body then it moved down her arms. Then rain began to fall from an unseen source, covering her body.

As the water touched her arms it reveled her gloves then her body suit. Next came her skirt and the rain slowly tapered off, but not before her boots were reviled. The heart in the center of her chest was reveled. From the heart came more water it formed her bow. Then the bow in her back appeared in the same fashion.

And Sailor Shaula was reveled fully transformed. She did her transformation pose. Her pose was her kneeling down on one knee, her elbows rest on that knee, her head rested in her hands and she had a big smile which spread across her face.

The four Stellar Scouts and their male counterpart all turned to face the direction of the screams. "I think it is time that we go and kick some bad guy butt!" Jessica said as she ran across the pool deck carefully.

They soon came to the source of the many screaming people. There hovering above a circle of teenagers was Kurai-ki and Shi-ryuu. They were swooping down and taking a Heart Stone from the helpless victims one by one. Trying to find the last Stellar Scout.

All coming out behind Sailor Sun and Daystar Knight the Stellar scouts stood in their fighting stances and introduced themselves.

"I am the sailor scout of the red star the sun, fighting for all within the sol system! With the flames of the sun, and the power of fire, prepare to burn because I will punish you!"

"I am the protector of the sailor scout of the red star the sun, fighting for the sol system and no longer searching for my lost love but protecting her!  So prepare yourselves because I will penalize you!"

"I am the sailor scout of the storm planet, Pollux, fighting with an un-stop able rage like a hurricane! With the power of the air so beware of the air around you, for I control the north, east, south and west winds!"

"I am the sailor scout of the planet of nature and life, Capella. I fight for all the living beings, which are pure! With the power of the natural world, prepare to suffer my earthshaking power because I will avenge all of those souls, which you have hurt! In the name of Capella!"

"I am the sailor scout of the water star, Shaula. I can control the ocean tides, the rain clouds above and the cold ice, so watch out. You have found a way to disturb the balance of earth's water, and for that I will do away with the evil that you are!"

With surprised looks Kurai-ki and Shi-ryuu turned around to see the Stellar Scouts in defensive poses. "Oh now that the Stellar Scouts are here you can hold this for me!" Shi-ryuu said as he threw the young woman’s body at the stellar Scouts, but was going to become closer to the water.

"SHAULA FLOOD OF TEARS . . . . . DOWNPOUR"

Tears welled up in Sailor Shaula's eyes as she bent down and kneeled on her knees, she looked up at Kurai-ki and Shi-ryuu as the tears began to pour down her face at a great speed, soon she had a puddle of tears that was growing in size and it was soon up to her waist, raising higher and higher. The tears were now at her neck and covered over her head. She then tightly shut her eyes and the pile of water, which had formed a column around her, went right towards Kurai-ki and Shi-ryuu. It leapt up into the air and circled around them then dropped onto them with such power it forced them to be pushed into the floor.

Shi-ryuu was a quick thinker and to make the attack not so damaging he put out his wings as a shield, but was still forced into the floor. Slowly pulling themselves from the broken floor that they had been pushed into up to their knees they were greeted with another attack.

The Stellar Scout of the water star fired out her attack which hit Kurai-ki strongly which the daystar Knight jumped up and saved the young woman before she hit the water. Setting her on the pool deck carefully he turned to face Shi-ryuu which had dodged out of the way of the attack.

Sailor Pollux got ready to do her attack next.

"POLLUX STORM TORNADO . . . . . SPIN!"

Sailor Pollux stood with her legs apart. Her hands were clasped across her chest. Her head was bowed and her eyes were closed. Then her eyes snapped open as her neck straightened. She put her hands above her head and a strong wind picked up. Sailor Pollux's hair and uniform blew wildly in the wind. She turned her wrist and a gray tornado came down from above. It surrounded her then she put her hands directly in front of her chest and the tornado spun out not towards Shi-ryuu or Kurai-ki.

This time Shi-ryuu used his little brother as a shield, making him receive the bunt of the attack. After the attack had passed Shi-ryuu smiled wickedly. "You missed me!" He said in a childish tone.

"Only because you hid behind Kurai-ki! If you would for once stand up and fight then maybe me could stop looking at you like a wuss!" Sailor Capella called out as she stepped up and stuck out her tongue.

"Oh you have not seen anywhere near the amount of power that I can use, and I am not sorry to tell you this, but you won’t see my full powers until you are about to die from my hands!" He yelled out an aura of fire began to form around his body as the rage built up.

"Well then I am afraid that isn’t going to happen for a long time Shi-ryuu!" Sailor Sun said as she stepped up out of the group and pointed a finger at Shi-ryuu. "Because I don’t intend to die for a long time! And most certainly not by your hands!"

"We will see, we will see!" He yelled as he shot out an attack of bats, which were made purely of fire, they flew up and around the Stellar Scouts and dove down every now and then to attack the group of warriors.

Trying to save themselves and the helpless screaming groups that were trying to run from the two demons. "Alright I have had enough of this!" Sailor Pollux yelled out in a very loud and angry voice.

"Pollux Song of Innocence . . . . . ClEANSE"

She smiled a soft smile and did a full turn. She held one knee in the air, her other leg held her up. The phrase came out of her mouth past her lips like a beautiful melody. The air filled with a sweet smelling wind, it flowed through and traveled into the heart of each of the living beings that were in the area.

As the song entered the hearts of those with a pure soul it healed any wounds making them feel refreshed. As the song entered a heart, which was un-pure, it began to cleanse it, making them feel anew.

Kurai-ki disappeared in a swirl of leaves and small branches, while the too proud Shi-ryuu didn’t flee. "Oh like this is going to hurt!" he said as he rolled his eyes and stood there with his arms crossed while his wings would flap every now and then to keep him in the air.

Suddenly he got a sharp pain in his chest and grabbed it tightly as if it would help make the pain go away. He turned to the Stellar Scouts as the pain got worse. "I may leave now, but don’t worry Sailor Sun, I won’t break the promise to come after your family, because I never break promises!" He said as he disappeared to safety in the form of a fiery dragon’s head.

Sailor Sun turned to the Daystar Knight with watery eyes. "He said he was going to attack my family again! I can’t let him! Can we please go home now? We have to try to stay around them as much as possible please?" Sailor Sun asked as she jumped into daystar Knight’s arms and he wrapped his arms around her.

"Sure thing Sailor Sun, we will make sure that we will hold all the meetings at your house and that whenever we want to hang out it can be at your house, it isn’t like you mom or dad will mind, they love us!" Sailor Pollux said happily.

"Yeah don’t worry I am sure that Shi-ryuu is just full of words and won’t even attack them! You see how he cowardly uses Kurai-ki as a shield or will use a helpless victim as a decoy." Sailor Capella said with a smile.

Sailor Sun smiled and nodded. "Come on lets de-transform and get out of here, how does ice cream sound at Jessica’s?" Sailor Shaula said with a smile as she put an arm around Sailor Sun’s shoulders.

‘So her name is Jessica, time to narrow down the field.’ Shi-ryuu’s voice said quietly from an unknown source as the Stellar Scouts walked off and disappeared into the change rooms to de-transform.
