*Disclaimer* Sailor Moon and everything and anything having to do with her is strictly the property of Anime. The X-Men though belong to Marvel comics. Everything in this is entirely fictional .I'd also like to add that some of the character descriptions are taken from a Marvel comic. Before going any farther I would like to give a full cast of characters since I highly doubt that you Sailor Moon fans have ever heard of the X-men. So here they are, the "people of the Drama."(I'm not wasting time and space on the sailor scouts. You're supposed to know them!) The X-Men A team of mutants who because of their mutations now possess super powers such as teleportations, super-strength... Some also have rather fearsome appearances. Nightcrawler- He looks like a demon (seriously!). He has pointy ears, a forked tail, is covered in blue fur, fangs and teleports with a burst of flame and brimstone. He also sticks to walls and can blend into shadows .His real name is Kurt Wagner. He's one cool German. He left the team along with Kitty Pryde and Colossus to start Excalibur but has returned now that the team is defunct. He's a really good sword fighter and can fly planes and stuff, such as the X-men's Blackbird (I think that's what it is called though I will have to check. He also has a good sense of humor and is often referred to as the "swashbuckler" of the team. Kitty Pryde- She can turn her body or anything she touches intangible. She has brown hair, is Jewish and is also the second youngest member of the team. Real name: Kitty Pryde ,she is also called Katchzen (German) or Katya (Russian) Colossus- He can turn his body into living metal. This causes some trouble during lightning storms! He's Russian and is very artistic. He has black hair and at one point in time he and Kitty were much like Serena and Darien. As well he has super strength. His full name is Piotr Nikolavetch Rasputin. Storm- She is the leader of the team. She can control the weather and is in my opinion the strongest member of the team because of it. She can also fly. She has silver hair, blue eyes and is black, coming from Africa and all. She was once both a thief and a goddess. Ororo Munroe is her name. Wolverine- The roughhousing Canadian (Yay!) drinks, brawls and calls everyone "bub." He has a healing factor which heals all wounds very quickly. He also has three extendable bone claws on each hand. He is the shortest member of the team though probably the oldest because his healing factor lets him age extra slowly. His only other known name is Logan. Marrow- Sarah has uncontrolled bone growth some of which grows out her back and can be taken off and used as daggers or swords. She has pink hair and is the youngest of the team. But she is an uncontrollable loose cannon who hates humans. She can get really nasty sometimes. She thinks herself ugly. She refers to humans or mutants who look like humans as "pretty pretties." (among other, more nasty and obscene phrases) Gambit- This mysterious Cajun hails from New Orleans. He can "charge" things with energy until the point where they blow up. He likes to use cards because then he can throw them with ease and accuracy. He is a casanova of major proportions. Remy LeBeau, as he is also known, has been with the team long but got in a spot of trouble and left the team a while back. He's just come back recently. Professor X- Charles Xavier created the X-men in search of a way to bridge an ever widening gap between mutants and humans. He is a mutant himself capable of telepathy and telekinesis. Rogue- She's a southern belle whos real name still isn't known to anyone but herself yet, and she's been around a while to. She has brown hair with a white spot in the middle and is Remy's girlfriend. She can absorb the powers, memories and characteristics of anyone she touches but has no control over it so basically she can't touch anyone. Also, at one point in time, she completely drained Miss Marvel (Another super-heroine) of her powers one day and has kept them permanently because Miss Marvel and her fought too long. Because of this she can now fly and has superstrength. FOH- Friends of Humanity. A team of extremists bent on destroying the "mutant menace" And now what you've all been waiting for, Marvel/Anime Crossover: One Marvelous Day Prologue The sailor scouts have just escaped their doom at the hands of Rubius and have teleported from his spaceship. But the turbulence caused by the explosion of it have thrown them way off course landing them in an entirely different universe (the Marvel one) sometime into the future (1999 to be exact) and scattering them over a short distance. Unfortunately for them the area they landed in is fraught with peril. Chapter One Sailor Mercury awakened groggily. Goddess! What a headache she had. Was someone beside her breathing or was that just her temples throbbing? She'd check in a minute after the pain subsided. After a few minutes the pain didn't seem to be lessening any but she was now sure that someone was breathing lightly beside her. Who was it? she wondered .She opened her eyes slightly and almost screamed aloud from fright! And she would have screamed too except that this monstrosity had clapped his three fingered hand to her mouth. It spoke softly with a pronounced German accent "Shh fraulien, don't be frightened, I won't hurt you." It spoke softly and reassuringly as it crouched, smiling at her. If you call it a smile! Even after he closed his mouth she could still see the gleaming white fangs poking slightly out of them. She eyed it carefully. It's face was long and narrow and covered in soft, blue fur and his eyes were yellow with no visible pupils, but she doubted it was blind. At least her headache had gone away. She was far too interested in this creature to notice it now. She examined the hand which held her mouth shut. She had not been mistaken. It was made up of only three fingers and clothed in a white glove. She was very glad she had studied English so she could understand what it said. But what good was that if she could not communicate back to it? She decided it was a he. ***** Nightcrawler looked the girl over carefully. She looked to be no older than 14. Judging from her face she was Japanese but what a strange uniform she wore and her blue hair! But, he thought to himself, his uniform must be no stranger. She was obviously very afraid but, he sighed, his appearance tended to do that to people. He kept his voice soft and non-threatening. " I am going to lower my hand, do not scream. Please." He added as an afterthought. "Do you understand?" He saw her manage a small nod. Good. He carefully lowered his hand. To his relief the child didn't scream but still he could see the fear in her eyes. "I am Nightcrawler of the Xmen. I won't hurt you. What's your name?" He couldn't quite catch it. "Ami?" He queried. She said yes. "Don't move or make any sound. We are in terrible danger here. If we are heard hear we may find ourselves in deep trouble. Understood?" Another nod. "What are you doing here?" he whispered. Ami said "I am not sure. We were teleporting away from an explosion and were trying to get to our home in Tokyo but we are here now. Where is here?" Nightcrawler looked at her incredulously. " You are in the sewers of Manhattan. We? Who's we?" "My friends." She wondered how much she should tell this odd stranger. For all she knew he could be a nega-demon though for some reason she doubted it. He pressed her for more information. "Just who are these friends?" then "you can teleport?" But before he could receive the answers to either of these questions the chattering of an automatic reverberated of the walls. They'd been spotted! ***** "Well, well, well, up and at-em pretty, pretty" Marrow growled at Sailor Moon, jostling her to consciousness. Sailor Moon said sleepily "But Luna it's not time for school." "What's she talking about wind-rider?" Marrow asked Storm. "I can not be sure Marrow but she seems to be speaking Japanese." At that moment it was Sailor Moon's misfortune to wake up to find Marrow peering at her. She screamed long and loud. Ororo tried to calm her but Sailor Moon was practically hysterical. Marrow peered anxiously about "Thanks to that stupid pretty, pretty were going to have the FOH all over us in 5 seconds. We gotta shut her up and get out of here now!" "Marrow please. She's calming down now. Run ahead to Wolverine and tell him I shall be along in a minute. Now Marrow!" She said when Marrow started to protest. Her voice sounded very tried. She spoke in a rough sort of Japanese but still managed to make herself sound reassuring "We do not know where you came from as Xmen it is our responsibility to make sure you are not hurt because of us." Sailor Moon said in a very frightened voice "What was that thing?" Storm looked at her and said "That is just Marrow, don't be frightened of her. Looks can be deceiving." Oh what she would give for a proper translator! Suddenly Sailor Moon realized that the others were no where about. And Rini was missing! "Rini" She cried out. Ororo heard voices far down the passage. She quickly grabbed the now wailing Sailor Moon by the arm and lead her swiftly down the sewer. She would of liked to have used her mutant powers to fly but no doubt the F.O.H. would have tracked her and she would lead them right to Marrow and Wolverine and the others. As it was, with this child bawling her eyes out they wouldn't have much trouble tracking her either way. "Be quiet child. Our lives depend on it!" Just then Sailor Moon seemed to hear the voices down the tunnel. She turned very white but quickly shut up. Swiftly and silently they ran down the passage with Storm in the lead and Sailor Moon huffing and puffing behind her. ***** Only Marrow, Wolverine, Storm and Nightcrawler were separated. Nightcrawler was scouting ahead when he was ambushed by some FOHers and Storm and Marrow had been separated and lost but Wolverine had tracked them down and was now leading them back to the main group which consisted of Rogue, Professor X, Colossus, Kitty Pryde and Gambit. These five had happened upon Sailor Jupiter and Sailor Venus. Colossus had nearly tripped over their prone bodies in the dark. "Ohh my head" said Jupiter in Japanese. She started when she realized she and Venus were not alone. "Venus." said Jupiter as she nudged her. She and Venus stared around at the five worried faces. Professor X was the first to speak, not verbally, but into their minds. "We are the Xmen. Don't be alarmed." He telepathed soothingly. " Could you tell us who you are and how you got here?" Venus spoke aloud and in English for everyone's advantage "We're Sailor Jupiter and Sailor Venus of the Sailor Scouts. We're not quite sure what were doing here ourselves. We were teleporting from this huge explosion but we wound up here. Where is here anyway?" "Your in the sewers beneath Manhattan." said Professor X. "Manhattan!" exclaimed Venus "Hey. Where are the rest of the Sailor Scouts?" queried Jupiter. She looked around in alarm. And Rini, she thought to herself, I hope she's with the others! "We found you both lying here and were as puzzled as you are about how you got here. Who are the Sailor Scouts?" asked Xavier "Well," explained Venus, the more eloquent speaker of the two, "We're a group of superheroes who defend Japan. We were teleporting away from an explosion when I believe we blacked out and I guess we lost one another. There are three others plus Tuxedo Mask and Rini. The others are Sailor Moon, Sailor Mars and Sailor Mercury. So why are you guys down here?" "Well" said one woman with a southern drawl "We were stopping a bombing of a bank but we've been a little sidetracked by the appearance of the Friends Of Humanity." Jupiter, who now found herself speaking English with ease, said "Who are the Friends of Humanity?" Everyone looked at her like she'd just flew in from the moon or something "What? I live way over in Japan you know." "Since you don't seem to know, cheres I guess Gambit'll have to tell you. Friends of Humanity is a terrorist organization against mutants, which just happens to be what we are." Sailor Jupiter and Sailor Mars, You must come with us so we can get you to safety." the bald man in the hi-tech wheel chair told them. "But how to get them out safely?" "Uh professor, I hate to interrupt but there is shooting up ahead where Nightcrawler should be now." Colossus exclaimed. Xavier listened for just moment before saying "Blast, they must have seen him, quickly X-men. The others will have to catch up later!" ***** Rini woke to find herself alone in a dank, dark corridor .Yuch! Thought Rini. "Where are we? Where's everyone else?" she thought as she began to cry. Suddenly, behind her she heard the sound of running. She was barely able to duck in the shadows when four people brushed past. The one in the lead was a male dressed in blue and yellow, the second was a black woman with silver hair garbed in a purple costume, the third was the most frightening. She had short pink hair and bones sticking out her back and the fourth was... "Sailor Moon!" She cried out so happy to see her even if it was her and only her. She and Sailor Moon began to cry all over again, this time for joy. "Yech. Sappy, flatscan pretty-pretties." Marrow made a gagging noise. "Hate to break up the reunion kiddies but those FOHer's are catching catch us were all as good as dead." Broke in Wolverine. "Yes we must hurry. Wolverine you will have to carry the child." Agreed Storm A confused Rini asked Serena a few questions which mostly cleared up the problem. Serena carefully explained that she had woken up with the two women, who were apparently called Marrow and Storm, surrounding her and that they were on the run from a group of people with guns and one bullet had actually flown right through her hair. The man in blue and yellow, who was called Wolverine, had caught up with them a little before they found Rini. Before she could explain any further though they found themselves running again. And Rini really didn't think that any of them knew where they were going. ***** Mars awoke surrounded by strange men. She almost thought of it as if a dream come true until she saw that they all had guns and they were all pointed at her! One of the men told her gruffly to get up. She knew he was speaking English but it wasn't her best subject so she just gave him a very confused look. Another person beside her asked in English " Is she a mutie? What should we do with her?" The man who was in charge told him "We'd best keep her with us until we know for sure what side of the gene she's on. " She was pushed to her feet by a young woman who didn't look very old at all. Her hands were tied together and when she tried to struggle she heard the click of a dozen guns being cocked. She was forced to march onward and as she walked she began to hear shouts and gunfire up ahead. Sailor Mars was really worried about their sanity when they began to actually began to speed up. The thought struck Sailor Mars "They must be soldiers of some kind." Where and when was she? She didn't remember any wars happening on Earth. Great. She thought. I'm being marched to my doom by some crazed zealots and I'm probably not on the right planet any more. Great, just great. ***** About the author: Katya R. is an aspiring author who likes to think she looks vaguely like Sailor Jupiter.
