Episode 6:
Awakening

     His head was throbbing.  He ached all over.  To top it off he didn't know where he was.  He opened his eyes to blinding lights and a strange language.
     "Uh.... I have got to be in hell!"  Alex West moaned as he sat up, "Where the hell am I?"
     <You are in Spain,> a female near him said in fluent Spanish.
     <Run that past me again?> Alex returned in fluent Spanish.
     <You are in Spain.  Madrid to be exact.>
     <How the hell did I get here?>
     <I'm not sure.  There was a flash of golden light and I ran here.>
     <Who are you?>
     <My name is Pilar Lopez.  I'm a student in Salamanca.>
     <My name's Alex.  Alex West.>
     <Pleased to meet you.>
     <Uhhh.... my head.  Where are we now?>
     <Right now we're in a cathedral.>
     Alex managed to get to his feet, thanks to Pilar.  He limped over to the center and looked up to the dome.  There was a glimmer and Alex's Star Sword descended, landing in front of him and sticking into the floor.  He picked it up and was instantly transformed into Sailor Star Dancer.
     When Pilar saw who Alex really was, she gasped in fluent English, "Oh my stars!"
     "I take it you know of the Sailor Senshi?"
     "I'm a major fan of the Sailor Senshi!"
     "Well, you just met the leader of the Star Senshi."
     "Aren't there supposed to be more Sailor Senshi?"
     "Yeah, there are, but for some reason an explosion of sorts scattered us to who - knows - where."
     Just then a Negaverse monster burst through the ceiling, showering the two with debris.  The creature landed and trapped Pilar in a cage of fire.  The creature then proceeded to drain her.
     When Alex saw what the monster was doing to his new friend he became enraged.  HIs eyes glowed red and his Sailor uniform changed color and form.  Sailor Star Dancer had become  Sailor Nega Fire once again.
     "Ok scum wad!"  Sailor Nega Fire said, "You're gonna pay for that big time!  Dark Firestorm Flash!"
     A stream of dark flame burst from Nega Fire's fingers, burning the monster.  Nega Fire kept burning for at least ten minutes.  When he discontinued the attack, he returned to his form as Alex.  When Alex saw the charred remains of the monster, he was puzzled as to what happened.
     "Holy cow!!"  Alex exclaimed, "What the hell happened?!"
     He turned to see Pilar in her cage.  Her eyes were wide with terror and her mouth was open in shock.  She tried to speak, but no words would come out.
     "Something you aren't telling me?"  Alex asked.
     "Y... you aren't.... you were.... Sailor N.... Nega Fire!"  Pilar stammered.
     <Don't worry.  He only appears when I get really upset.>
     Just then Alex's visor activated, detecting the other five Star Senshi to be someplace in Spain.  He freed Pilar, then thanked her for all she had done before he ran out of the cathedral and took to the sky.  His next stop; Toledo.
