Serena and Luna stared up in bewilderment at the place around them.  There was a gorgeous shining lake in front of them, a field of bright green grass, forests of trees with lush green leaves, and a beautiful blue sky.  The sun shone as if it were made of gold.

"Oh, my tush...," Serena groaned.  "I've---I've changed back!  What happened?!  Where are we?!"

Luna looked around.  "I don't know, but it sure isn't Tokyo."

Serena stood up and brushed the dirt off of herself.  "The last thing I remember is that blast of light hitting me.  Do you think... do you think that we're dead, Luna?"

"You're not dead, Serena," replied a distant voice.

Serena and Luna looked around, startled.  "W-who's there?!  W-who said th-that?!"

Suddenly a funnel of water burst out of the lake and formed into a beautiful blue-haired woman.  Her earrings were raindrops and her dress was like a waterfall.

"I am the Fairy of The Lake.  You are in another land called Ankh."

"H-how did we get here?," asked Serena.

"I brought you here," the Fairy said.  "We need your help."

"We?," Luna inquired.

"My sister and I," the Fairy replied.  "And the people of Ankh."

Suddenly a burst of fire appeared and there stood a woman with hair of fire and a dress of smoke.

"This is my sister, the Fairy of The Flames."

Serena and Luna said hello.  Serena looked at Luna.  "The Fairy of The Lake looks like mom and the Fairy of The Flames reminds me of Miss Haruna!," she whispered.

"You're right, Serena.  There is a slight resemblance."

"Will you help us?," the Fire Fairy asked.

"What's the problem?," Luna questioned.

The Fairy of The Lake sighed.  "The ruler of all Ankh, Prince Blazer, was kidnapped by the evil Queen Goldie.  She is trying to take over our land by using her magical powers.  You must go and free Prince Blazer.  He is the only one with the power to stop Queen Goldie.  Please!!"

"Why us?," Serena asked.

"Goldie's power exceeds mine and my sister's put together.  When I looked for help, I sensed this power within you that no one else has.  My magic bubble tells me that you are the only one capable of surviving this mission."

"I'm nothing special."

"You are very special, Serena," the Fairy of The Flames said.  "A diamond in the rough.  Look behind you, at the sky."

Serena and Luna turned around to see a castle on a large mountain.  Huge black clouds rolled above it and thundered.  Serena shivered.

"That is the castle of Prince Blazer which Goldie has taken over," the Fire Fairy explained.  "That black cloud is the evil magic corrupting our land.  You must help us, Serena.  In a few days, Ankh will be totally evil!"

"We can't let that happen, Serena!," Luna said.

"You're right, Luna.  I'm not sure what good I'd do, but you're right.  Okay Miss and Miss Fairy... where do I begin?"

The Fairies smiled at each other.  "Wonderful!," cried the Lake Fairy.  "Thank you both so much.  I promise we will return you to your world at the exact moment you left.  When you have succeeded.  Follow this road to the closest village.  You will need special help on your journey.  Ask the villagers about Cerulean, Magenta, Forest, Tangerine, and Sunglow.  They are the only five warriors that can help or protect you.  Use this shell to call me.  Just toss it into anything wet."

"It can also be used as proof that you are not one of Goldie's henchmen," the Fairy of The Flames added.

"Good luck my friends," said both of the Fairies as they disappeared.  Serena pocketed the shell.

"Well, Luna," she said.  "Let's get a move-on."
