Notes:
Well, here it is, the long awaited continuation of Curiosities. And if
you didn't know it was, get Curiosities from L&A site2 Hentai Section
http://ctdnet.acns.nwu.edu/~aerdnahu
to find out what this fanfic's about.
BTW: Thank you, Artemis & Luna + Andrea Hui, for having my fanfic.
*
Warning! This fanfic has incestual acts. If this offends you.. but
hentai doesn't (you're weird).. but anyways, some one pointed this out
so I'll warn you guys OK?
*
I've changed the setting slightly on this fanfic. Curiosities was a Hentai
fanfic, and so is this, in a gentler way. So if your under 18, some
parts of this fanfic could be offensive to you. I've decided to tone it
down because I want some plot and Curiosities had very little. Also now
there are many references to the Japanese anime version, IE. NAMES
Ami Mizuno=Amy Mizuno(duh)(And I hate her NA last name)
Makato Kino=Leda Kino
Mamoru Chiba=Darien Chiba
Minako Aino=Mina Aino
Rei Hino=Raye Hino
Usagi Tsukino=Serena Tsukino
Chibi-Usa Chiba=Reeny Tsukino(??)
SailorSenshi= Sailor Senshi/Scounts(Whoa!!)
I've taken the liberty of using the Japanese last names since I think they
suit the characters really well, plus they need them in this.
The outer senshi are in this too and I've taken their names straight from
the Japanese version.
Haruka Ten'ou : Sailor Uranus
Michiru Kaiou : Sailor Neptune
Hotaru Tomoe : Sailor Saturn
Setsuna Meiou : Sailor Pluto
There is very little reference from the SM: Manga, just because I don't
like the Generals with the Senshi. My other references come off
the internet, and other fanfics. So some details of this fanfic might not
be common knowledge or could be completely wrong. You have been warned, don't
take this fanfic too seriously.(BTW, if there are incorrect details
or ideas, please tell me. I might not be able to correct them for this
fanfic, but I may be able to correct future mistakes.)
There is a new character, designed by me, and is in no way part of the
original or NA version of Sailor Moon (C).
Joer Tsukiou : Moon King(literally)
Now for the bad guys: straight from the Japanese, Romanized of course.
The Black Moon Family/Clan
Rubeus
Birdie
Catsy
Avery
(I kept the NA names because my general audience is in North America.)
Esmeraud
Sapphir
Demand
Wiseman
(my thoughts will be enclosed in these) plus a couple of witty comments^_^
<the characters thoughts will be in these> this is important because this
fanfic relies a lot on what the characters are thinking.
*** =scene changes.
Repeated message:
Warning! This fanfic has incestual acts. If this offends you.. but

Sailor Moon Unseen
Bizarre Love Triangle 1
by SirAnime (sira...@juno.com)
Chapter 1: Future
(This is in the future, about three days after Reeny went to the past)
A shadowy figure stood motionless leaning upon a large crystal in the
vast throne room. Every few seconds though, the sound of his weeping could
be heard. Finally, a thought came into his head. One of absolute genius
as he thought about it further. <This.. this could save everything.. Save
her.. Serenity.> The King raised his face to look at the body encased in
that very crystal he leaned on. <Your face so calm, so beautiful.. Your
eyes, your eyes so pained. Oh Serena, I'm so sorry.> His heart welt with
emotion bringing a tear to his eye. <Oh please, make it so.> His wish
melded with the tear making it glow. It streaked down his face and rested on
his chin. For a moment he closed his eyes as he weighed the possibilities,
the things that would change. <NO! It's for the better,> he finally thought.
His eyes shot open and the tear fell from his chin. It flickered on it's way
down, taking an eternity to reach it's destination. Then he looked down
a moment before it would make it's collision with the floor. He smiled as it
splashed. <This, my love, will set you free.> And with the splash, came the
wish that would end their love.
***
Moon King sat impatiently on his throne. He looked from side to side
in the empty regal room causing his even-shoulderlength hair to sway. He
continued to shake his head so his hair could flare which kept him amused
when someone came in.
"What ARE you doing?" the deep feminine voiced asked from the
entrance.
"HUH!!" Joer stopped suddenly and blushed. He knew that she had caught
him with one of his silly expressions on his face. "Ah.. nothing."
Rolling her eyes she responded with, "Yeah.."
"Admiring your hair again, Majesty?" a second more feminine voice
asked from behind the first person. She walked in through the entrance and
stood a few feet from the throne, then bowed. "It is rather beautiful."
He gave her a small smile than looked evilly at the other. "Why can't
you be as nice as her, Ur..anus?" His smile widened as the word left his
mouth.
"Hah, very funny, Mr. Moony King."
"What grade are we now?" he asked rhetorically.
"Second, I think." she retorted. They gave each other evil glares,
except his facial expression slowly changed to one similar to the guy on SNL:
Sprockets (that wide one eyed glare while making a kissy face that Mike
Myers use to do as the Sprockets guy, hilarious.)
Sailor Uranus broke down laughing. She walked up to the throne and
hugged him. "Oh how much I missed you," she said then planted a kiss on
his cheek. She always wondered why Sailor Neptune was so formal with the
Moon King. Along time ago, she had discovered that non of the senshi had
to. He was a warrior like them, a friend not their boss, almost.
"Yeah, I missed you guys too." She let him go and he stood up. He
looked around the room then asked, "Where's your daughter?"
"She's not our daughter," Neptune and Uranus replied simultaneously.
They hated being teased about being her sergeant parents. It made them
feel old for some strange reason.
"Sailor Saturn, come in already." Sailor Uranus called out.
The fully grown Sailor Saturn walked in. She was far from the shy,
short, skinny, pale teen he had first met her in this life time. Now Sailor
Saturn could contend as a supermodel, like the other senshi, if they wanted
to.
The only features that seemed to be the same was her hair and cute face,
though
less cute and more beautiful. Also, she was still unbelievable shy. Sailor
Saturn walked meekly to the throne looking at her feet. She then stopped far
from the throne and raised her head for a moment. She looked at Joer and gave
him small smile, then lowered her head again. "Greetings, your Majesty," she
whispered.
Joer rolled his eyes and sighed. <Erhh, what's she so shy about? They
know.> He walked up to her and hugged her tight. He pulled away for a second
and looked at her.
Sailor Saturn's eyes were wide and she was mouthing the
words," Not now, they'll see!!"
Joer shrugged and puckered his lips. The next thing she knew,
he was French kissing her.
Her eyes widened even further and she tried to break loose.
He felt her move so he reacted by dipping her.
Finally, Hotaru quit struggling. This was the man she was in love
with. She closed her eyes and let everything flow naturally.
Neptune and Uranus looked away from the couple. They had mixed
emotions about their relationship. Both were glad that Hotaru found love,
especially since the two were so attracted to eachother for such a long time
it seemed absurd that it took so long for them to admit it. Ofcourse Hotaru
hadn't said much about it and believed Haruka and Michiru didn't know. The
fact
was they knew quite well and they sort of were jealous, too. Joer was one of
the most eligible bachelors around, until now.
Uranus turned back around after a few seconds hoping they had
stopped,
but they were still at it, now kissing even more passionately. "Jeez, take
it
to your room already," she blurted out.
They didn't seem to hear her, but Neptune did. She elbowed Uranus to
let them be. "Can't you see they're in love?" She whispered to her.
"Yrrh, but I don't wanted to see it," Uranus groaned back whispering.
"Why, you jealous?"
Sailor Uranus stayed quiet and looked on.
Sailor Neptune snuggled up to her and murmured," You shouldn't be, you
have someone who loves you right here."
Uranus brought her close and hugged her.
Even with superhuman power, Joer still needed air, so he gently
released his kiss, and looked at Hotaru's enchanted face. "That's for Hello..
and Goodbye." He let go of her and walked out of the room briskly.
Sailor Saturn blinked her eyes, then scurried after him. "Wait, what
do you mean 'goodbye'?" The two other senshi were surprised as well and
followed.
While walking, he answered monotoned, "I'm going back to Earth for a
bit."
"What?!?" She ran infront of him and he halted. "You can't go back to
Earth, it's suicide! The Black Moon's got all the space between here and there
rigged with traps; not even you can teleport through it!"
"Heh, don't worry," he smiled at her, but the look of worry on her
face didn't go away, I've got a plan." He stepped around her and continued
on his way to the palace steps.
"What's your plan, why are you going back?" It was Uranus's turn
worry
"Don't have much time to explain, I revieved some communication
while you guys were gone," he turned and headed up the steps. "I managed to
talk to Pluto and she said it was possible, in about 5 minutes for the
InnerSenshi to extend Crystal Tokyo's energy shield out to the moon."
"No way.." Neptune whispered to herself. <That'd take so much energy>
"Then I'll be able to ride in it and surf my way down to earth."
"And why are you going?" Uranus asked again.
"To give them some needed supplies..(whispering to himself) and to
see
my niece,"
They reached the top of the palace and a bunch of supply boxes were
lying around. Two guards were also there, placing them in neat stacks. When
they were done, they bowed to the senshi and the king then headed out of the
room.
Uranus waited until the two guards were out of earshot. "Why not send
one us, you sent us back to the palace for some reason, didn't you?"
"Ofcourse I called for you guys.. You're crusade of the far side of
the
Moon I take it, was successful?" The women nodded. "Good, then this should be
easy for you to run the Moon for about two hours then."
"Wait, you're not answering my question, why not send one of us?"
Uranus asked impatiently.
".. Because.. my niece, I need to see her." Joer's voice cracked
slightly.
"Your majesty," Neptune walked forward and looked the Moon King
straight in the eyes. "You can't help her, only the silver crystal can. You
going would be senseless, send one of us."
"No, it's not senseless, I feel something, I need to go back." He
turned away for a moment, then the building started shaking. They all looked
up while the palace ceiling began to part.
It was true, he didn't exactly know why he was going and not one of
them. He felt it though, something was calling him back, not just Pluto's plea
but a call of destiny. He felt no reason to argue further and used his powers
to prepare the palace shield to meld with the force field from Earth. Joer
looked up as the ceiling parted and revealing Earth floating above seemingly
peaceful. But he knew better. There, battles were fought unwithering,
relentless, tideless, with neither side gaining, only losing lives. <Only if
she was free from that crystal imprisonment. She could make show the Black
Moon family how Wiseman has corrupted them.> But Wiseman, living up to his
name, had found a way to trap the Queen and with that, the Black Moon faction
was turned evil. Neo-Queen Serenity never had a chance, her powers diminished
greatly from the sudden loss of her Ginzuishou. <Wiseman was so lucky for that
to happen, he could have never trapped her with all her powers,> he thought
grimly. Sadly, the war was not the only after affect of the Queen's
imprisonment. Her husband had fallen into a depression, unable to use his
powers to help her. <He loves her too much, poor lad.. and to lose his
daughter too, I understand his pain.> A glimmer of light came from the surface
of the Earth. It grew brighter every passing second. <That's them!> he
thought
nervously. He powered up, but at the same time, somebody wrapped their arms
around his waist.
Sailor Saturn saw the incoming rainbow colored energy beam, making
her
worries escalate. She wasn't about to let the love of her life march into
something dangerous without arguing about it. Hotaru ran to him and hugged
him. She was about to bury her head into his chest when his armor appeared.
Her
forehead smacked right into it. "Awe," she winced, and moved her head back,
but
didn't let go of his waist.
Joer looked down in surprise at the painful expression on Hotaru's
face. "Ooo, sorry didn't see you. You OK?"
Uranus stifled an urge to laugh, while Neptune looked up at the
merging
energy fields. It was one of the most powerful and beautiful things Michiru
had
ever seen. That's when she figured that Joer better hurry, the thing
wouldn't last too long.
Ignoring the little pain that was left, Hotaru nodded and rested her
head on his chest. "I don't want you to go, please... stay, I missed you, we
barely had enough time together."
Joer chuckled lightly, "Oh, don't worry, I'll be back in no time; for
only two hours then I HAVE to come back, the alignment won't be right after
that," he said hurriedly then kissed her ontop of her head as he tried to
wiggle out of her grasp.
Hotaru worried even more. Not only did she have to worry about the
shield failing, now she feared that he could get stuck on Earth. "NO, don't
go, send someone else. Me or a guard or something, it's only supplies."
"Please Hotaru, I need to go, the shields ready and it doesn't last
forever!" reasoned Joer.
She looked up to him, streaks of tears forming on her face. "I don't
want you to go," she cried. "I don't want you hurt or to be stuck on Earth.
I love you. " Hotaru held on him tighter determined not to let him go.
The Moon King stared into Saturn's eyes. They glistened with tears
and were full of fear, fear for his safety. He understood why she was acting
so stubborn, but he really had to go. Gently wiping the tears from her face,
he then bent down to whisper into her ear. "Hotaru.. if you love me, let me
go.
She needs me."
An uneasy moment followed while Hotaru thought over what he said.
Her arms fell reluctantly from his sides for she knew that he would despise
her actions by keeping him here. Besides, he was their king, his orders
carried through with or without their consent. Also, she couldn't be selfish
with him, if he could help, then he should go. Looking down, she stepped back
then grumbled," Fine, go!"
Joer knew that tone, she was angry. "Hotaru?"
"Go.. go!"
"When I come back, I'll make it up to you.. bye." He prepared for
flight when someone else grabbed his wrist.
"Hey buddy, you know you're just wasting my time, making me come back
here," Uranus said angrily. It was her turn to protest. This was the man they
were suppose to protect and he was sacrificing himself for something they
should be doing, "So I suggest you stay and pick someone else to go, I hate
having my time wasted." She tightened her grip to let him know she meant it
and would back it up with force.
Joer felt the force fields starting to separate. He glared at her,
anger swelling. He had had enough of her over-protectiveness, all those years
they've been together, she'd be the one who took risks for them. This time
though, he had to do it. "Let go," he commanded.
"No way. Pick one of us or none of us goes!"
"That's an order," he replied. They continued to glare at eachother
when finally, Hotaru pleaded, "Let him go, Haruka."
Uranus turned to look at her. "What? You're letting him risk his
life?"
"I love him, and I trust him. He'll be back. Now let him go."
Her eyes began to glow with power.
That set Haruka sweating. Neptune walked up to Uranus, separated her
from Joer, and slowly pulled her away from him. Haruka hung her head in
failure of stopping him, while Hotaru calmed down and waved goodbye to
the rapidly shrinking image of the Moon King and his cargo.
Immediately after Haruka let go, he set off for the shrinking entrance
of the shield, feeling sorry that he hadn't said goodbye properly. That was
the reason he had called for them, to see them before he left. Joer knew this
was dangerous, except he tried not to show it to them. If he were hurt, or..
killed, he wanted to remember them well. Unfortunately, the way he left the
senshi wasn't a very pleasant memory. He sighed in disappointment as he and
his cargo skimmed into the small entrance which immediately shut behind him.
Yet, the light around him changed his mood. The energy field was impressive
in it's wide rainbow colored form, stretching from the surface of the Earth
to the Moon. He looked behind him and saw the end retracting towards Earth.
He hurried his pace to match the speed of the shrinking shield. Achieving
that, he looked around once more to admire the beauty of the energy field.
He could feel how much power it contained, so much that he wondered how the
inner senshi could produce it. <Jeez, I bet they're straining themselves to
do this, better go faster.> He launched himself to a rate that would let him
reach the surface in a matter of minutes.
"Hmm, strange no signs of danger at all. Oh well, now just to cruise
my down," he mumbled as he looked around at the surrounding space. "This is
easier than I thought, the shields holding fine and no Black Moon ships near
me." Lucky for him, this energy fields was doing two things. One, keeping
cloaked satellite mines from entering his path, and second, preventing any
Black Moon starships from attacking him, if they should appear. But it seemed
as though he was undetected. Joer continued on, reaching what would be the top
layer of Earth's atmosphere. He slowed down to a speed in which his shield
could manage the friction and heat but keep ahead of the retracting end of the
energy field. Joer then looked back to his cargo, checking if it was all
there.
<Dohh!!! I knew I forgot something,> he thought while hitting his head
lightly.
"Artemis isn't gonna be happy with me for forgetting the round cakes I
promised
him.. Oh well, he'll just have to live without it. Round cakes are a luxury
that I'm not going back for since I can't." He turned around to get a glimpse
of the moon, so far away now. "Besides, he has to be tough during time of
wa... UH-OH!!"
***
The three women continued to stare up at Earth, just now losing sight
of the shield and Joer. "Come on," Sailor Neptune suggested, "let's go to the
viewing globe, we'll be able to see him going to Earth from there." They
began to walk hurriedly down the main steps to the war room.
"Haruka?" Sailor Saturn said meekly, walking besides her.
"Huh?"
"I'm sorry.. I didn't mean to be angry. I just.. he really needed to
be
with her."
Uranus blinked in surprise. "You're sorry? Why? I'm the one who should
be. He ordered me to let him go and I didn't."
"Hmm.. No, I'm sorry."
"No, I am."
"Don't be silly, I'm sor.."
"OK, OK!" Neptune butted in. "You're both sorry.. and both of you
forgive eachother, right?"
The two gave eachother small smiles then nodded.
"Phew.." Neptune sighed. The last time the two had a sorry fest, they
ended up angrier at eachother. She was glad she was able to stop it early.
"It's just I couldn't let him go without trying to stop him," Uranus
admitted. "I don't know what we'd do if.."
"He'll be fine, we really shouldn't worry." Neptune walked into the
room first. "But, alittle looking out doesn't hurt." She rushed to the console
and began to program it to look for the Moon King. A few seconds later, an
image formed in the large globe in the center of the room.
Uranus and the two others stared at it. "You're right though. I
really
shouldn't worry. The guy's tougher than the three of us put together. And
look,
the shield's perfect. The Black Moon ships have no chance of breaking through
that."
"Yeah, he'll be all right." Saturn sighed in relief. Seeing him
flying
inside such a beautiful structure eased her tension.
Neptune increased the magnification to which they could see him
almost
to life size.
"Hey, does that have x-ray vision?" Uranus joked.
Neptune scratched the top of her head. "Hmm, let me see." She smiled
wickedly as she started tapping a few buttons on the console. The screen
started changing palettes then slowly it adjusted to normal and began
dissolving his armor and clothing. The three women blushed profusely as they
looked at his naked back side. His muscular body was amazing, but Uranus
wanted to see more.
"Change the angle to the front," she snickered.
"Okee Dokee!" Neptune pressed a few buttons and the angle slowly began
to change.
Saturn quickly pushed Neptune out of the way, as jealousy warmed her
ears. She tapped a few buttons and got lucky making his clothes reform at the
moment his front side was visible.
"Hey!! What's the deal?" Uranus turned around seeing Neptune and
Saturn
struggling to have possession of the control panel.
Neptune quit after a few seconds then stepped back. Putting her hands
on her hips and having an annoyed look on her face, she said, "It's her, she
did it."
"He wouldn't want us doing that to him," Hotaru retorted.
"You mean you don't want us to see him," Neptune replied.
"Well, yeah." Saturn put her hand behind her head and began to laugh
nervously.
"Marking your territory, eh?" Uranus gave her a curious look. "Don't
worry Hotaru, I understand, he's yours."
Hotaru quit being embarrassed. She stood straight and proud. "Indeed,
he is mine. And besides, you two have eachother. Why do you have to see him
naked."
"'Cause he's one fine male specimen." Neptune and Uranus replied
simultaneously. Uranus then said, "You know, he's the first guy I've ever
found attractive."
"I thought you guys were ..."
"Yeah, we are! Don't get your panties in bind. I was just thinking
he's
awfully beautiful for a man. Just look at him, alittle make-up here and there
and poof, one supermodel drag queen."
That caused Neptune giggle lightly.
Hotaru looked at Joer's face. Haruka was right, he was less handsome
and more beautiful. "Maybe it's his hair?"
"Really, though, Hotaru. You should have told us that you guys were an
item." Michiru commented.
"No kidding, we would have stopped having him in our fantasy
programs."
"Hey!" Neptune poked Uranus on the shoulder. "She's not suppose to
know
that!"
"What!?!" Saturn's eyes bugged out.
"Hehheh, you should see what she likes holo-Joer to do to her."
"What!!!"
Neptune stepped away from Saturn. "Umm.. umm," she stuttered, then
turned to Uranus. "How about you.. you ah.." She had nothing. She was the one
who did the weird stuff with the hologramic Moon King.
Sailor Uranus grinned. "Hotaru? You understand though, right?"
Saturn looked at her blankly, then nodded lightly. For some reason a
tingly feeling was surrounding her.
"You'd like to see it then? Our program?"
She bit her lip for a moment, while Neptune's jaw dropped in
surprise.
<Oh-oh, I knew they'd want me to join them someday.. interesting time to turn
bisexual.> Nodding again, she replied quietly with, "Okay."
Uranus knew that Hotaru knew what was going to happen and that she was
nervous. "Good, we'll take you to our room after we see him land on Earth
safely."
"Ooo kay.." <Wow, it sure got hot in here.> Saturn quickly turned
around to watch him land.
Neptune was aghast. She couldn't believe that Hotaru was more curious
than angry at them. She couldn't believe what Haruka was doing either.
Walking to Uranus, Neptune whispered. "What ARE you doing?"
"Me? Us.., releasing tension. A week of fighting and getting non.
Uh-uh, I plan to use these two hours for some really, really good times.
Besides, how old is Hotaru now, 21? It's time for her to learn a few things."
Haruka moved next to Saturn, who was watching Joer's image nearing Earth's
atmosphere. She put her arm on Sailor Saturn's shoulder, making her quiver
lightly. "Hey there, you nervous?"
"Sortof," she squeaked.
"Umm.. if you're not sure about this.."
"NO!! Um.. I mean yes, I'm sure.. I've just been waiting for quiet
some
time."
"For what?" Neptune inquired.
"For you guys to ask me to.. you know."
It was Uranus's turn to be surprised. "You have? Why didn't you say
anything?"
"I.. didn't want to interrupt you guys."
"Interrupt us?" Neptune gave her a curious glare.
Hotaru looked at her feet embarrassed. "While you two were doing it."
"Oh.." Uranus lightly shook Hotaru's shoulder then questioning
bluntly, she asked, "You knew when we were having sex?"
She nodded, then whispered, "It's pretty hard not to notice when
I can hear you guys moaning loud and clear through the wall."
"Jee, sorry 'bout that, but (Uranus winked at Neptune) Michiru's
a loud one."
Neptune's eyes widened. "Hey!!"
"Oh lighten up, Hotaru's gonna find out that it was you screaming in
a few minutes anyways."
"But maybe she should have found out when we got there," she responded
slightly annoyed. Uranus just grinned at her. <So we really are gonna do it.>
Neptune sighed. <Oh-well, might as well get the best out of it.> "Umm..
Anyways, Hotaru, you need to learn how to speak up, you shouldn't wait for
what you want. You should have asked, we wouldn't have turned you down."
"Well.. You know.. I'm.."
"Yeah, we know. You're shy.. but we'll teach you how to speak up,
won't we, Michiru?" Sailor Uranus moved her hand from Hotaru's shoulder
to her butt. She pinched it almost hard, causing Hotaru to hop forward
and Michiru to giggle.
"Eek!" Sailor Saturn yelped. She then turned around and gave Uranus
a mock angry glare.
"That was lesson number one." Uranus smiled at her, then changed
her direction of viewing to the globe.
Hotaru watched Haruka begin to laugh. She turned around to see Joer
making one of his silly faces, then hitting his head. His mouth began moving
as he talked to himself.
Neptune managed to read his lips. "He forgot something for Artemis..
Round cakes. He forgot round cakes.. for Artemis?"
"Why's he so upset about it?" Haruka put herself under control long
enough to ask. "What's Artemis gonna do, beat him up?" Imagining such
a situation of a tiny white cat trying to attack the Moon King, one
of the best fighters in the Universe, made the three women laugh out loud
histarically. Doing so, made them miss his facial expression change
from being annoyed to shock, almost to fear. They also missed him cussing
a long array of profanities and his sigil start to glow bright. What they
did notice after a few seconds was the room darkening to red, and the
sirens firing
***
"So he thinks that puny shields gonna stop us, eh? Well, we'll see
about that!" P. Demand looked to his brother. "Sapphir, tell Alpha and Kapa
armada to follow us. We'll see if that thing can take on 20 of our finest
ships."
"But, Brother? That'll leave the southern hemisphere of Dark Nemesis
exposed," Sapphir protested. "And their weapons Brother, it's difficult.."
"DO IT!"
Sapphir cowered back, "Yes Brother." He turned around and left for
the bridge.
<Humph, the boys got to learn that something's are worth alittle
loss.
If they even do try to attack back. Heh, the death of the Moon King will make
them morn!> "Bwahahaha!"
A shadowy figure became visible behind Demand, and it too began to
laugh madly.
***
Joer's eyes widened as he watched ship after ship decloak just outside
of the shield. "Shit, damn, fuck, bitch.." and he continued to say a cuss for
every decloaking ship until he began to wonder if they would ever stop
appearing. Finally, the largest ship decloaked. "DEMAND!"
Continuing to fly towards Earth's surface, Joer watched as a large
hologramic image of Demand's head appeared outside of his ship. "So, we meet
again Moon King." Demand grinned evilly. "But this time you don't have your
Sailor girls to help you. Oh wait! You're being a weakling hinding behind
their
shield. I'll just have to go through"
"Ah.. well umm. SO!" Moon King mocked. "You couldn't bust through it
before? Come on, I dare you. Come and get some." Moon King's sigil burned.
"Heh, you think that shield's going to stop me? From this distance,
my
fiend, it's as weak as paper." Demand gave him a final smile. "Prepare to
die!"
The image faded and then the Black Moon ships grouped to one side of the
shield.
"Oh shit!" Joer pushed his cargo and body to move as fast as they
could. He tried not to pay attention to the aura of the situation.
*
In his bridge Demand watch his viewing sphere. "So your running now
Moon King? You will not escape my wrath! Saphir! FIRE!"
*
What did catch his attention was the energy beam noises and the
shield
flickering. He turned his head to the left, seeing all the ships firing their
lasers at one point. "Damnit!" Joer stopped flying down but let his cargo
free
fall to the surface. <So Demand really wants a fight, eh? I'll give him one.>
he thought arrogantly, a flaw he some time had in a battle. And then he
reasoned to himself, <Besides, they need this cargo, I must try and stop the
Black Moon from tearing into the shield.> "We'll see who's gonna die!" he
shouted at the ships.
*
"Shit! Shit! SHIT!!" The women said in unison. The early warning
system's had told them of the decloaking ships. Now the three watched as the
Black Moon ships attacked the shield.
"Quick, get to the capsules!" Shouted Uranus to the two other women.
Then they ran to a corner of the war room. There stood four capsules big
enough
to hold humanoid bodies. Except they weren't just built for any humanoid, they
were built for the Sailor Senshi. The job of the capsules was to capture
energy and mix it with the Moon's own aura, magnifying their energy.
Their power would then be focused and fired from mammoth guns positioned
all over the moon. The energy beam being released was so powerful, it
could destroy objects well out of the solar system, if needed to. The three
women stepped inside. In there were various controls and monitors. But those
systems were old now, the new upgrades would be their controls.
Sailor Saturn always felt uneasy with these new upgrades. She winced
alittle as the cold robotic tentacles sprang from all corners of the capsule
and surround her body. It rapped it's self around her legs and arms. Some
others fell from the top of the capsule and the ends attached to the sides of
her face. Bravely she waited, and then, she became one with the weapon.
Similarly, Uranus and Neptune also merged with their gun. Having full
control, they targeted the Black Moon ships surrounding the shield while
ignoring the urge to fire at the blankness they felt at the southern
hemisphere
of Dark Nemesis.
<DIE!> The word rang through their minds as they blasted their
weapons.
*
"Fire! FIRE, keep the King SAFE!" Sailor Pluto command her ground
troops. They were positioned just within the rainbow shield, aiming their
large
surface canons up at the small dots in the sky.
"EEEEEEEEpheeeewwwwwwuuuu!!" The canon screamed, letting a bright,
huge
energy mass burst up to the Black Moon ships. Seconds later, other canons
fired
from nearby, commanded by the other Crystal Millennium Generals.
Sailor Pluto had prepared for some type of attack, but her senses told
her there were far more ships, and much more powerful at that, than she had
expect. Continuing to tell her troops to fire, her determination to protect
the Moon King grew.
*
"Brother!" Sapphir watched his control screen display massive blinking
red dots flying towards a schematic of Demand's ships. "We're being fire
upon."
"Shields, and prepare evasive maneuvers. We shall not leave until
the Moon Kins is dead.
"Yes sir."
Prince Demand pressed a green button on his captain's chair arm rest
and watched his viewing globe show a barrage of energy sphere's flying toward
his armada. <Damn, they are prepared!> Demand was overwhelmed by the
response
of the Crystal Millennium. His hopes were to quickly kill the Moon King and
make a fast get away. Now he knew there was no chance of that. He could only
do one thing now. "Change that command! Ram the shield!"
"What?" Sapphir turned around. "We'll die!"
*
"CINDERING CRESENT LAZER!!" Hot focused energy shot from the Moon
King's sigil. The beamed passed right through the shield and hit several of
the Black Moon ships in it's way. He rotated his head and damaged a few more
ships before he became exhausted and had to turn off his beam. "Oh yeeh,"
Joer sighed. He had hit one of the ships severely and it exploded in a violent
crash. "Now who's the man!" His answer was a ear shattering explosion from
behind him. He turned around and watched another armada of the Black Moon
ships firing at certain spot. But that wasn't the cause of the crashing
noises. It was ships taken turns ramming the shield.
"What the hell?" Joer smirked. "You're pretty stupid Demand, thinking
you can break through the shield that way." Much to his surprise, the shield
began to weaken, cracking at the point of impact. "Doh, spoke to soon." He
raised his chi again preparing to fire another blast of his patented laser
when
huge burning spheres began hitting some of the Black Moon ships. Even more
entertaining were pulses of energy that rained from space. Moon King
looked up at the moon and smiled. "Thank you girls!"
*
"No!! NOOO!!" Demand shouted as he watched his globe display
information of ship after ship being damaged and eventually destroyed. A beam
from space curved away from it's straight path and hit Demand's ship's shield
dead on. His ship rocked and began to burn after the impact.
*
Within the capsule, Hotaru smiled. "Got'cha!"
*
He looked at the many warning messages displayed throughout the
schematic of the ship. "Brother, our shields are almost down. We must
retreat."
Sapphir informed.
Demand closed his eyes and grinted his teeth. Fist clenched, he
thought, <So you get away again, Moon King.. Next time.> Demand looked to his
brother with anger in his eyes. "Tell the ships we are to re..."
"NO!" The shadowy figure flew out from a dark corner of the room.
"Demand, you must continue to attack," it commanded.
"But Wiseman, we are out matched. We must retreat." Sapphir pleaded.
"Silence boy!" Wiseman shouted.
Demand felt the Wiseman's power rise. What could he do but obey?
"Continue to attack."
"But.."
"I said, continue to attack!"
*
Halting his flight to the surface, Joer watched the Black Moon ships
being torn apart by the surface and Moon guns. Pretty soon their were only a
few ships left and even those showed signs of eminent destruction. "What are
you thinking Demand?" He looked in amazement at Demand's heavily damaged ships
continuing to ram the crack. "Go home, you lost!" Joer shouted, but his call
was neglected. Now there were only four ships left out of the twenty and they
continued to fire and ram at the crack in the shield with what little energy
they had left.
*
Another shot from space hit their ship causing most of the ship's
system's to overload. Everywhere fire sprang up and Sapphir was thrown from
his seat to the floor for his console exploded.
"Brother, please, we must retreat." Sapphir crawled to his brother's
chair, wounded. "One shot and we're doomed!"
"Be quiet, coward," Wiseman spoke, looming above the two. His sphere
began to glow hot blue and a black cloud surrounded his body. The room filled
with evil energy and then the words echoed madly from every where.
"Ah... KU... MAA!!!"
Demand looked around at his bridge as it began to glow brightly and
the
fires disappeared.
The image of Wiseman began to fade and lower to the ground. Demand
felt the great amount of energy that Wiseman gave, it was immense. But as
quickly as it happened, so was his recovery. "There Demand, I have powered
up your ship, now ram it into that shield!" And then Wiseman began to laugh
maniacally again.
Demand nodded in awe at Wiseman's strength. He now had the greatest
chance he had ever had to kill Moon King, and he would take full advantage of
it. Demand grinned evilly and with the controls by his chair, aimed his ship
to ram into the crack in the shield. "Die!"
*
Not surprised, Joer watched Demand's ship to be the only one that
survived. What did surprise him was the strange aura that suddenly surrounded
the ship. He shrugged to himself as he watched an array of energy beams from
space and the Earth's surface hit it violently. <You're not gonna survive that
blast, Demand. Good-bye.> A bright flash from the impact caused him to blink.
When he opened his eyes again, what he saw almost made him pee in his pants.
"Oh shit!" he squeaked. Not only did Demand's ship survive, it was also headed
towards the shield at a great velocity. Knowing that the ship had a chance to
break through the crack, he called upon his power's to prevent it.
"Mind LeviTAAAAtion!" Arms stretched forward, a small forcefield
similar to the senshi's shield sprang from his palms. It melded with the
shield, supporting it for the eminent blow. His effort unfortunately, was not
good enough. The sharp edge of the Black Moon ship punctured the shield.
*
The ship jolted, shaking Demand out of his chair. Slowly he got up as
malevolent satisfaction traveled through him. In his viewing globe, he saw
the
side of his ship piercing the shield. "We have him now!" said Demand
vengefully.
"No! Leave him to the droids!" Wiseman command.
"But why, we only have to try once more. We'll break through!"
"I have only given your ship strength for a few moments. We must
leave."
"Where?!"
"There." He pointed to a portal emmerging from the far wall.
Demand turned his head feeling disappointment. "Then we have done
nothing, the Moon King still lives."
"Bwhahaha, not for long." Wiseman replied madly as the only three
survivors headed through the portal and disappeared.
*
Joer shook his head trying to clear it. He found himself pushed to
the
opposite side of the shield from where the crack was located. Eyes widening,
Joer saw how Demand's ship was piercing the shield. His eyes widened even
further as a large dark mass slowly became visible. It's round shape
suggested
that it wasn't a Black Moon ship but something he never saw before. What was
similar was the black aura surrounding it. <That must be Wiseman's fabled
ship,
Death Sphere!> The reason he know of it was Sailor Pluto's story. It was the
reason they lost most of the North American continent to the Black Moon
Family.
Demand's ship slowly lost it's aura and the canons from space became
effective again. They tore it to pieces leaving only the edge of the ship
still stuck in the hole of the shield to remain intact. The Death Sphere
quickly took care of that. A laser came from some part of the smooth surface
of the ship, hit the piece plugged into the hole and vaporized it.
Moon King flew forward cautiously, watching three shapes jet out from
an opening on the ship and barely making it through the sealing hole of the
shield. The Death Sphere faded and cloaked, while the three objects became
clearer as they approached him.
"Droids, heh!" he said arrogantly while he cracked his knuckles.
*
Emerging from the portal, Demand, Sapphir, and Wiseman found
themselves
in a chamber, elaborately decorated with renaissance style. "Where, where are
we?" Demand looked around bewildered by the beauty. With out warning, a woman
with dark green hair popped out from behind a pillar. She walked quickly
behind
him and tapped his shoulder.
"Acck!" Demand turned quickly in surprise. "Esmeraud, good-day..
(quietly) aghh." He gave her a tired look and thought, <This place isn't that
beautiful after all>.
"Hello there my prince, welcome to the Death Sphere." She ignored his
worn attitude towards her and kissed him. He pulled away and hid behind
Sapphir.
He'd asked about this ship later, right now he wanted to be away from
HER. "I.. I had thought you had parished?" Demand remembered distinctly that
during this battle, her ship had been destroyed. It was one of the few
pleasures he had during the fight.
She walked arrogantly next to Wiseman and rubbed her hands over his
shoulders. "No, no. Wiseman would never let such a horrid fate happen to me."
"Never!" Wiseman agreed favorably, then both began laughing.
<Errh, I would have!! That voice, uhh, that laugh!!> Demand thought
in anguish while covering his ears. Sapphir felt the same.
Suddenly it became quiet and Demand uncovered his ears. He found
Sapphir asking, "Wiseman, then how is the Moon King being taken care of?"
"You did what I commanded, have you not?" Wiseman stated to Esmeraud.
"Yes, I sent the three droids, and we have cloaked and are to achieve
a low orbit," replied Esmeraud in her usual conceited manner.
"Just THREE droids?!" Demand was outraged stepping out from behind
Sapphir. He knew Moon King could handle such few.
Esmeraud laughed again, causing Demand to acquired a headache. She
then
waved her fan and a hologramic image formed of three droids about to duke it
out with the Moon King. "The least will make him over confident," she said
mischievously. "That will leave him open for our newest droid, Kamikaze!
Heeheehehehe!" She laughed irritatingly.
But this time Demand smiled to himself, knowing now why Wiseman was
eager to leave. "He definitely won't survive the Kamikaze!"
*
Floating, Joer rubbed his chin in interest. <Hmm, only 3? This is too
easy.> He looked the droids over, knowing two of them. <Thunderclap and
Hypnotica droid, very simple to destroy, just break the drum of Thunderclap
and break the horn on Hypnotica's head.. But the third, I don't know about
that one. Looks easy enough to destroy though.> It was a female like most
droids, and also well endowed. For a second he wondered, <Demand's got to be a
perv, making all his droids female.> But he only thought about that for a
second. Joer remembered he had just a few hours on Earth. He looked at his
watch and saw only an hour and forty five minutes left before he had to go
back. "Darn, and I really wanted to practice on them," he sighed
disappointedly, forgetting totally about the possibility of a trap. He
shrugged. "Oh well don't have time to play around. Quick kill." He flew
forward at the three droids, aiming for the closest, Thunderclap.
*
Setsuna was relieved. The outersenshi helped much. Ammo was
low on Earth, and she called out to stop firing. <The Moon Guns can
handle the rest,> she thought. Then someone shouted, "Look, something's
falling!"
Sailor Pluto looked up at the sky as large cargo boxes fell. "Where
in
Hades is Joer!" she said anxiously to her troops, surprised that he was not
with the supplies. They cowered back from her. She sighed and let loose a
levitation beam from her staff catching the falling supplies. Setting them
down gently, Setsuna continued to look up when something caught her eye.
Actually, it caught everyone's attention for even if it did look small they
knew better. <Oh no, Death Sphere!> "Who ever said to stop firing?!!"
"Umm, y.." one of her commanders began, but she gave him an icy glare
stopping him from continuing.
She turned back to her troops and questioned, "So why aren't you
attacking?" One brave soldier pointed upwards pansily. Setsuna looked up and
the Death Sphere was no where to be seem. "What? Where, jeez?" She ran to an
officer and pried his binoculars from his hands. Her pulling his binoculars
caused the strap around his neck to choke him until he managed to cut the
strap
with a pocket knife. He fell down gasping, while Setsuna seemed not to care.
She was to busy looking at the impending battle between three droids and Moon
King.
*
Michiru, Haruka, and Hotaru stayed in their own capsules, monitoring
the fight. They zoomed in their viewing and watched Joer fight the three
droids.
<Errh, I wish I was really there!> Haruka thought angrily. She could
take those droids on easily. But she had to settle in watching the fight.
While in the capsule next to her, Michiru admired Joer's amazing
flying skills. It's not that she couldn't fly. All the senshi could, having
trained at it, but non where anywhere as agile as Moon King. <Someday, I'll
be able to fly as well as him,> her mind said.
Hotaru on the other hand, wasn't in any mood to be angry or impressed.
She was too worried. There was something strange she felt from one of the
droids. The new one. It wasn't uncommon to see a new droid though. Once in a
while, the Black Moon faction would send them out to see how they faired
against the Senshi. It was the same story all the time fortunately,
'ineffective'. Strangely, this one seemed more dangerous. Not on it's
outside.
Actually, that made it look easy to destroy. But in it's behavior. It just
floated there, smiling. <Hmm, she's got to have a trap but what? The majik
level's normal for a droid.> Something told her to check radiation readings
though, an uncommon practice since most forms of energy used in this era
didn't
emit radiation. <I knew it.> Sailor Saturn's scanners found a small amount of
high patterned energy. <Computer, match energy readings to element chart,>
she thought instinctively. Her computer processed the information at lighting
speed but to her, it seemed like centuries. When her computer answered back,
she gasped in surprise. "200 grams of element Pu-239..."
"NO!" Hotaru screamed in her capsule, trying to get out.
*
"DUM DUM Dedum, DUM Dedum Dedum DEDUM!" Thunderclap shouted while
banging her drum sticks. She then pointed them at Joer and let loose a
lighting bolt.
Joer grinned, that was such a predictable move. He strafed to the
side, dodging the lightning bolt easily, then closed in on her. She was still
recovering from launching her attack when he came in with a flying punch to
the face. Joer than did a spinning back fist, puncturing the drum. The droid
began to short circuit and he launched his water attack. "Mizuken!"
The focused ball of energy and water slammed into Thunderclap,
engulfing her then causing her to self destruct. The explosion was cushioned
by the water, keeping the pieces from flying everywhere, but then it turned it
into steam. So literally, the thunderclap droid vaporized.
"Three hit combo, ultimate.." he muttered under his breath then
turned to the next droid, Hypnotica.
The droid stared deeply into Joer's eyes, chanting, "Sleep, sleep,
you must sleep forever!" And her horn glowed with power trying to put him
under her spell.
He smiled lightly, thinking, <At least she's trying.> Moon King had
never been or could be hypnotized. <I'm sure the Black Moon Family knows
that??> But he didn't wonder about that to long, he really had to get to
Earth.
He flew in with a kick, as the droid turned into smoke. <Ooh, a challenge,> he
thought as he missed. Hypnotica quickly reformed and took her horn out from
her head. Joer flew back from her swing, thinking <Whoa, this one might have
been upgraded!> He'd never saw one take the horn out of their head before and
use it as a sword. But he made the proper adjustments to his fighting
technique. He teleported behind, then immediately teleported again under the
droid. Hypnotica was confused as hell, and she didn't even seem him coming
until he shouted. "Ka En SHOU ken!"
Joer flew upward at great speeds with his right hand ablaze in white
flames. He forced his fist up at her crouch (not in!) all the way to her
shoulder, slicing her in half. Grinning, Moon King continued to fly up,
avoiding the exploding pieces. Then he turned back around to see the horn
still intact. <Doh, missed!> his mind said, while it started collect the
scattered pieces trying to reform. "Cindering Cresent LAZER!" Joer yelled
and his beam shot out from his sigil. It hit the horn dead on, turning it
into dust. "Hmm, now that was fun," he breathed, feeling that he hadn't
lost it yet. "OK, one more to go."
He spun around and looked for the last droid. She continued to smile
at
him coyly, floating only a couple of yards away. <Strange, she's acting so
calm for a droid who knows she won't survive.> He raised his energy to
quickly
destroy her when she flew at him. Joer stopped powering up when he began to
blush profusely. The droid had torn off her clothing and was flying naked
towards him. <Boobies, boobies!> his hentai mind cheered. But he closed his
eyes and shook his.
Joer controlled his urges and pointed at her angrily. "Tempting men by
showing them your voluptuous body so you can fool them is the sin of sins! I
will not let this be. In the name of the Moon, I will punish you!" She was
still flying towards him so he charged his flaming uppercut to destroy her
once
she was in range. "Ka En SHOU.. huh?"
She stopped suddenly, and laughed out loud madly. Kamikaze had
succeeded in getting near him, now it was time for the count down. "Five..
four.. "
"What, hey?" Joer looked dumbfounded, she was just out of range. He
moved forwards alittle when he realized.
"Three.. two.."
<Oh shit, she's bomb!> He had no time to teleport far, he needed to
charge up for that, and also he couldn't fly away. All Moon King could do was
float there and raise his shield, hoping it'd be strong enough to protect him
from whatever kind of bomb she had.
"ONE, KAMAZAKI!"
*
The outer senshi had just gotten out of their capsules, when Joer
ended
the existence of Thunderclap.
"What a way to speak out Hotaru, what's going on?" Uranus asked
wondering why Sailor Saturn had been screaming.
Not having time to explain, she looked at her, then to Neptune.
"Michiru, is their anyway we can communicate with him?"
Neptune looked at Joer's image flying towards Hypnotica in the
viewing globe and raised an eyebrow. "Well ofcourse. He should have his
communicator."
Hotaru hit her head. She couldn't believe she didn't think of that.
<Errh, I worry too much about him!> She ran to the communications console and
called for him, while Neptune and Uranus watched amused at how Joer actually
acquire a challenge from Hypnotica.
Sailor Saturn heard a telephone ringing sound from the speakers,
"What
the.."
Having heard the telephone ring, Neptune looked to Hotaru, and
giggled,
She just remembered the upgrades she did on his communicator, equipping it
with
a majik sensor and answering machine. "Heehee, Hotaru, you won't get
through.."
"What?" Saturn glared at her confused, then she heard a clicking noise
like someone picking up a phone making her turn back around.
"Hi, this is Joer Tsukiou, alias Moon King speaking.."
"Joer, Joer umm she's a bomb, get away from..."
"Sorry," the answering machine spoke mockingly over her," I can't talk
to you right now, because I'm probably in the middle of a fight. But hey if
you
like, leave a message after the tone, caio."
"I can do that.." Uranus had muttered having seen Moon King split the
droid in half. Immediately after that she heard Saturn. "Whwhawhat, bomb?"
Neptune was just as confused.
Saturn looked blankly at the console, she didn't know what to do.
Michiru and Haruka ran to Saturn. "Hotaru? Hotaru?!" Uranus said
putting her hands on her shoulder and shaking the woman.
A tear fell from her eye and rolled down her cheek," fission bomb.."
was all she was able to say. Neptune and Uranus gasped, and turned around to
watch the moment right before it exploded. Continuing to face the console,
Saturn just closed her eyes as the viewing globe behind her suddenly became
pure white.
***
After her count down, everything became quiet. For Joer time seemed
to
slow down. He watched her mid-section split open revealing blinding white
light, then that light expanded encompassing her then everything. Moon King
shut his eyes trying to keep it from blinding him, but the light burst right
through melting his eyes. He tried to scream, but he heard no sound Joer
could feel energy and heat seeping through his shield, burning him all over.
The pain was excruciating, so much that he went unconscious with thoughts
of...
*(Joer in a dream state.)
"Let go Joer, it's time to die," one said, wearing gold
Emerging from the mist, another argued, "Why would we want to die?!
We haven't accomplished what we were set out to do."
"What?!? We have accomplish much too much! We have outlived our
peers, have out lived our love." He waved his hand and an image of S.Sailor
Venus came to view.
Joer's heart hurt. "Maybe, maybe we have lived to long.."
"No, NO!!" The one clothed in purple shouted. "She is not our love
anymore."
"How can she not be, any.. more?" the other said slowly. "You know,
she's waiting for us on the other side." The image of S.Sailor Venus
started to float away, but her arms reached out for him. Joer wanted to go
with her and moved forward.
"We don't love her anymore because," he stood in Joer's way, stopping
him, "because we love Sailor Saturn! We, no no, you, Joer Tsukiou, King of
the Moon," he stared straight into his eyes, "love Hotaru." Joer moved his
head
down then stepped back.
"You are also Prince Ales, the husband of Venus!" He ran to the other
and pushed him out of the way so Joer could follow. The two consciousness
then
began to fight, throwing punches at eachother, then grabbing eachother to
brawl
it out on the ground.
"Stop! STOP IT!" Joer shouted. The two immediately stopped. Joer
shook
his head disappointed at them. "You are both right and wrong in ways. I," he
looked towards the one wearing purple, "still love Venus. I always will,
Hotaru's love doesn't push her aside." The one wearing gold smiled. Joer
then
moved his head to look at him. "But I can not move on just yet for Venus, I
haven't accomplished everything I need to do yet, and," he nodded to the one
wearing purple," I do love Hotaru, so much. I want to be with her and to
accomplish my mission. Those are my reasons for living."
The two consciousness disappeared, and Moon King glared up at the
blue
peaceful sky. "I know you understand, my love Aphrodite, I know you do," he
said, hoping the woman he loved so long ago heard him.
And then he turned around, summoned up all his strength and shouted,
"DEATH REVOLUTION!"
(Prince Ales is the mistranslation of Ares in Japanese, just like Joer.-_^)
*
Nearly blinding her, Sailor Pluto had seen the shock wave from the
nuclear blast. It caused Crystal Tokyo's rainbow shield to flicker then fail
for it had happen within it's boundaries. The shockwave was still coming
and it was up to her to protect everyone. She was devastated about Joer
being
caught in the explosion, but right now, her mind was set on stopping that
blast.
Setsuna only hoped that if Joer had survived the blast, that he would survive
this spell she began. Spinning her Time Staff/ Key above her head, she
formed
a time bubble and voiced," Cronus.. SPHERE!"
It jetted up at an astounding speeding, expanding also, encompassing
the entire sky. Everything within it's confines would age a million years,
forcing the radiation and heat to fall to harmless levels.
*
He came back to reality, feeling, with the little sense of feeling he
had left, that the heat had disappeared. <I live! I LIVE! AWWWWCHH!> he
thought ecstatically yet painfully, his body was burned everywhere. Moon King
didn't want to see his body right now, not that he could anyways, he was
blind.
And he was deaf too. <Awweeawweeaweeawee.> Joer tried to use his powers to
heal himself but found that he had nearly nothing left for his shield used it
up. If he wasn't so excited about being alive he would have been exhausted.
But he tried and tried, and still nothing. Then he remembered, he remembered
that detransforming took no energy at all, and strangely it healed. <Oh boy,
hope this work, errh!>
The thought spread through out his body, activating a change that
hadn't happen in so many years. It was the ultimate relief. Warm, tingly,
soothing, hands seemed to be robbing and messaging his body, healing it.
<Oh man does this feel good. Rolaids, yeah,>(how do you spell relief?) But it
couldn't last forever, and so he was completely healed and naked.
He opened his eyes, now that he could see again, and saw his bare
body
falling rapidly to the ground. "AHHH, SHIIIITTTT!!!"
*
Eyes shut, Sailor Pluto held her hands together and prayed. She
wished
that the King had survived. <If it wasn't for that rule, I'd go back and stop
it from hap..>
Her thoughts were interrupted when a soldier shouted, "General, look
at
uhh, he's alive!"
She immediately opened her eyes and looked around. "What, what,
where?"
Her commander pointed up at the sky to a naked body, falling rapidly. That
widened her eyes further. <What the hell is he doing naked, and not flying?>
"SHIIIIT!" she heard him screaming from where she was. <Maybe because
he can't fly? Oh-oh.>
Joer continued to scream profanities, wondering why the people on the
ground weren't trying to help him. He was only about hundred feet from the
ground when he closed his eyes and thought, <I went through all that, and now
I'm gonna die because they won't catch mee, boohoo!>
"Eehhh, oww," he moaned as some kind of energy field surrounded him
and
slowed his fall to Earth. Then he felt the ground beneath his feet, and he
opened his eyes sighing," ohh yes!" There stood in front of him, a weeping
Sailor Pluto.
"You.. you're alive!" She screeched, then hugged him.
Joer turned beet red, for everyone, especially the male soldiers,
were
looking at them with ecchi in their minds. "Uh, ah, Setsuna?"
"Yes?" she said in a high pitched voice.
"Ineedclothes!"
"Ohh, yeah.." Setsuna replied, taking the opportunity to continue to
hug his naked body. It was something she'd never done, but always wanted to.
"Like now!"
"Oppsee," she giggled, then amazingly changed her tone and commanded
to
a soldier, "Get him something to wear." Then to the soldiers watching, she
said," Look away, the King and I have business," while she was still embracing
him. The soldiers turned around but many grinned when they were facing the
other way.
"Eek!" Joer yelped lightly as she hugged him harder.
"Don't want you cold, right?" <Wow, he's a big man.>
"Ah, uh, dah, ah, I.. I guess, umm." He was thankful when the guy came
back and announced, "I have the clothes, General."
Sailor Pluto sighed, then replied, "Now put them down, and go away,
thank you."
"On the floor?"
"Yes!" She answered annoyed.
The soldier hurriedly put it down, bowed, and walked away.
Joer managed to wiggle out of her grasp, pick up the clothes, hop
behind a bush and put on the outfit, which happened to be very similar to
his old one except without all the markings (looks a lot like what Allen
wore at school in SMR), in under a minute. He popped out from behind the
bush and smiled goffily.
Sailor Pluto clapped her hands, "Amazing! Can you do that again,
this time without the bush?"
"No," he replied quickly and in a deep voice. Joer then walked over to
her pulling at his collar. "Jeez, this is a little tight."
"Well, we can fix that when we get to the palace," she responded, then
gave him a funny look. "By the way, why were you falling naked from the
sky, huh?" Setsuna then began walking to the palace.
Joer followed and explained what had happened after the explosion.
Pluto nodded along, understanding it a little. He skipped the dream part
though.
"And so you healed because of detransforming?" she inquired.
"Yeah, cool huh?"
"That's sheer genius," Setsuna praised, then added, "So you're
just a human now, huh?"
Joer sighed, "Yup, I think so."
"Then aren't you going to change back?"
Shaking his head, he answered," I'm afraid to. I don't know what
condition I'll be in if I do, and besides, I don't think I can. I feel
all my powers are drained."
"That's terrible, how are you going to get back to the Moon then?"
"I don't know," he replied shrugging. "Maybe I'll gain some back
while I'm here. I doubt that I'll have enough to fly or even attempt to
fly anytime soon though."
"Hey, cheer up," she said noticing the gloomy look on his face.
"You're alive aren't you? And I'm sure you'll be able to gain your powers
back in no time. We'll be able to get you back on the Moon soon."
Joer smiled at her. "Thanks.. Hey you know, maybe it would
take_no_time. Can't you make time faster for me or something," he suggested.
Sailor Pluto raised an eyebrow. "Hmm, maybe. We'll try it later."
"Why not now?" he asked perplexed.
"Because I just launched a really large Cronus Sphere which disturbed
the fabrics of time greatly. Another spell involving time might be dangerous
to the time gate."
"What made you cast a time spell?"
"Because there was a shockwave from that nuclear blast that I had to
stop."
"Oh yeah," Joer nodded.
"Hey, that gets me thinking. How did you survive my Cronus Sphere.
Joer shrugged again, "I don't know? Maybe I still had my shield when
it passed? Wait," he looked around noticing that the city wasn't surrounded
by the rainbow colored shield. ".. the shield, it's down."
Sailor Pluto also looked around, just noticing it too. "Oh no!" she
said alarmed. That's exactly when it decided to flicker back on. Sailor
Pluto turned and gave Joer a look of relief.
"Yup, count on them, they keep going and going and..," he smiled back.
"Yeah," she agreed.
They were stopped on the path when a fury of white fur leaped at Joer.
"Acck!" He screeched in surprise as Artemis landed on his chest, with Joer
having fallen on the ground.
"Joer! Joer, you're alive!" Artemis screamed joyfully. He then began
crying. "I thought (sob) you died."
Holding Artemis in his arms, Joer stood up and scratched him behind
the ear. "Hey, I wouldn't do that to you."
"But we saw the blast, you were right next to it." Luna managed to say
with Diana hanging from her mouth.
Joer looked down. "Yeah and I survived. I'm pretty tuff huh, Luna?"
he replied happily. She nodded, then he bent over and put Artemis down. "Hi
there cutie." he squeaked at the baby kitty. The kitten looked up at Joer and
gave a light purr. "Yeah, you are sooo cuuute." Joer said in a high tone.
Sailor Pluto giggled lightly.
Artemis then breathed, "And we were so worried, you OK?"
Joer stood straight up and pounded his chest with his hand. "Well,
I'm
all here aren't I, ugghh," he coughed after hitting himself to hard.
They all laughed cheerfully. When the laughing died down, Luna asked,
"How'd you do it, survive such a blast?"
Joer sighed, "I'll tell'ya later."
"Yeah, tell us later," Artemis agreed. "Let's get down to the real
business. Where's those round cakes?" he asked with big hopeful eyes.
Joer grinted his teeth. "Umm, I for.."
"No! NO!" Artemis covered his eyes with his paws and began to cry.
"Waahh, salmon again tonight. Waaaahhh!"
"I'm sorry, Artemis, but who knows," Joer tried to cheer him up. "I
might have brought something else."
The white cat immediately uncovered his eyes and stopped crying.
"Likewhat?"
He scratched his head. Joer had brought lots of types of foods, then
remembered what Artemis also liked. "Hmm, squid on a stick?"
Artemis leaped for joy. "Woho, thanks so much!" He began to run then
remembered his family. "Comeon Luna, before the soldiers get to it all!"
Artemis urged her to go faster.
"It's pretty hard with extra baggage." She refereed to Diana hanging
from her mouth, with her going at a leisurely pace.
"OK, OK. I'll slow down too."
"You know, it's just a sausage shaped to look like a squid. We have
lots of sausages still."
"No it isn't," Artemis argued.
"Yes it is. What, you actually thought it was a squid? Can't you taste
the difference?"
"Of course I can," Artemis responded sounding offended. "I'll prove
that it's a squid."
"And I'll prove it's a sausage!"
"Oh yeah!"
"Yeah.."
Joer grinned after they were out of hearing range. "Do those two
always
argue about the stupidest things."
Pluto sighed, "Unfortunately they do. But that's what keeps their love
strong. They love to argue with one another."
Joer then remembered love. "Oh, ah, you got a communicator with you. I
know Haruka, Michiru, and Hotaru were watching what happened. They're
probably
worrying about how I am."
Sailor Pluto handed him her staff. "Just speak into the globe, but you
know, some Black Moon ship will pick this up," she informed him.
Joer smiled mischievously at her. "I know, and I want them to know. I
want to shove it in Demand's face," his voice grew wilder and louder," the
fact
that I'm still alive, while he lost so many ships! Then I'm gonna tell him I
gonna get him! That I'm gonna stuff my HAND.. UP.. HIS.. ASS AND.. and," he
calmed down a little, taking in breaths, while Pluto gave him a funny look,"
and... dah, something. I'll think of something." He turned away from Setsuna
and looked at the crystal ball, seeing his reflection on it. Joer took in
some air and smiled as the ball began to glow, calling for the moon
***
He awoke again, despair in his heart. Nothing had changed. She was
still within the crystal imprisonment she had been for over a month. He
brought his head up from the surface of the crystal casket where his head
had been resting and looked at her saddened face frozen still. He never saw
that look on her face stay longer than a second before. He looked away, not
being able to stand seeing her look so somber.
"You were always a happy girl.. woman, Serena," King Endymion
whispered
to himself. "Even in the worst of times, you managed to look so cheerful,
never letting the situation get you down. I love.. I loved you for that.
But now it is my fault that you always look sad. MY FAULT!!" Darien pounded
his fist upon the crystal, as the painful memory of that horrid day resurfaced
in his mind.
*(YES! A flashback!)
"Small Lady! Princess!" Neo-Queen Serenity called out searching for
her daughter in the beautiful forest. King Endymion walked besides his wife
following a path heading back to Crystal Tower. They knew how much their
daughter loved being in these woods, magical and enchanting as it was.
"Princess!" Serena called once again. She moved her head slowly
back and forth looking for any sign. Darien looked at her face, there was
a rim of worry around her beauty. Not much though for her cheerfulness
covered it up. Darien too was worried, more though for they were late for
the meeting with the incoming race of humanoids.
"Dear?" Endymion took Serenity's hands into his.
She turned to him with a smile. "Yes honey."
"I think we should go back. I'm sure she's fine. You know how she
loves chasing those rabbits, she probably fell asleep somewhere. And
besides, we have guests today." Darien reminded her.
Serenity nodded lightly, but her uneasiness seemed to grow.
Darien walked forward holding her hand, but Serena seemed reluctant to
go. "Serena, what's wrong?"
"She.. No, nothing. She's a good girl, she'll be able to handle it."
Serena said in a vague manner.
Endymion gave her a curios stare. "Handle wh..a..t.. ?" Darien's
attention was taken for the forest suddenly became quiet and a cool erie
feeling began to surround them. The chill became more intense, causing
Serena to come closer to Darien. He hugged her and began to look around the
forest for danger. Above, without warning, the sky blackened, darkening the
forest to look like it was night. Endymion and Serenity glared upwards
bewildered as the a square light separated a small part of the black sky.
Two shadowed beings formed from the light and slowly descended to the ground
a couple of yards aways. One was wearing a heavy cloak covering his face and
floating, the other wore a white uniform while his white medium length hair
waved in a seemingly untangible wind. Though his face was not so easily seen,
Endymion knew that the white haired man was staring at his wife with much
interest. In his arms, he felt Serena stir for a bit, then hug him even
tighter. Darien heard the man hiss lightly, then he moved his head to look
at Darien.
Endymion continued to glare at the man as he and his companion
moved forwards towards them. Only a few yards away now, the man smiled
un-soothingly, and spoke. "Greetings Endymion."
The King raised an eye brow. "You know my name, but I know not yours."
"Surely you have had contact from my secretary, green hair, terrible
laugh."
Darien nodded, "Yes, Prince Demand?" The man nodded, "I'm sorry that
we're late for the assigned meeting. We were just heading back to the palace.
In best interest I.."
"In best interest," Demand interrupted Darien, "that we meet out
here."
King Endymion was slightly surprised. In all his years as being the
king, few have ever interrupted his words. "And why is that?"
Demand avoided that question, and gallantly tore a leaf off a nearby
tree. He examined it then spoke," Beautiful, as the stories said. Everything's
beautiful." Demand spun around looking at his surrounding. "I thank you for
restoring my planet's beauty."
Darien eyed him fiercely. "Your planet?"
Neo-Queen Serenity felt an emergence of annoyance in her husband. She
ran her hand over his back to somewhat calm him.
Demand grinned. "Correct."
"What makes you think that!"
"I am Prince Demand of the Black Moon Family, heir to all within the
Terran System," he announced.
King Endymion had heard of the Black Moon Family before but at the
moment he didn't care. He was starting to get angry for this man was claiming
things not belonging to him. "I think you are mistaken. I know for sure.."
Demand ignored him. Instead he concentrated his attention towards the
Queen. "And that includes you and that powerful crystal of yours."
Neo-Queen Serenity held her husband back and turned to look at Demand.
"Maybe it'd be wiser if.. if (Darien tried to move around her) if we spoke
about this in a more negotiable manner. Please.."
Darien couldn't take the way this man was looking his wife over.
"Look sir, I think you should haul you're pompous ass back to where you came
from! I do not appreciate strangers entering my kingdom and making astounding
claims!" But Demand continued his lustful stare towards Serena. <I bet a
little shock to his..>, a bolt of electricity flew from the tip of Endymion's
finger and hit Demand in a sensitive spot.
Prince Demand fell to his knees in pain. "You'll pay for that!"
Demand squeaked in high tone then made a motion to his companion.
In the corner of his eye, Darien saw the cloaked figure fire upon
them. He quickly pushed Serena off as the beam flew between them. Continuing
to move apart from his wife, a crystal rose formed in his hands and he whipped
it at the figure. The rose blurred towards the cloaked figures head, but just
when it was to make contact, the figure teleported. Darien blinked in surprise
and didn't see the bolt of dark lightning that came from Demand. Struck, King
Endymion stumbled to the ground.
"Darien!" Serena screamed and ran towards him.
"Serena, errrhh, GO!" Darien managed to say. Another blast of lighting
made him fall to his hands and knees. Serena, being herself, continued to run
towards him. "GO, leave me!" he grunted as more energy from Demand hit him.
Demand, tiring, shouted, "Trap him Wiseman!" as the being reformed
from above.
"Nooo!" Serena pleaded but the cloaked being hovering from above let
loose a fury of energy.
Darien looked in horror as Serena managed to get in the way of the
blast. At the moment of impact, the ground beneath Serena began to crumble
and fly into pieces, but yet she seemed unharmed. Ignoring the pain, Darien
got up and ran towards her. She moved her head slightly and his eyes met
hers. Absolute sadness leaked from them.
Funny what people notice in moments like these. <She looks so
different. What is it about her that's making her look so different?>
Endymion finally noticed something that he should have noticed before. Her
crown was missing, and with it, the Ginzuishou, leaving her almost powerless.
Darien was almost to her and his arms reached out for her. But
suddenly a crystal grew from the ground, encasing her at the moment he got to
her. Darien slammed into it and both he and the crystal fell to the ground.
"Wisman, you missed!" Demand shouted.
"It does not matter, we have both of them now," it answered back.
"I DON'T THINK SO!" Someone shouted from the woods. "HAHHH... MANDALA
SSSUUUPER!" Huge rings (and I mean HUGE) flew through the trees incinerating
the ones in the way. They flew towards Wiseman and hit his raised shield.
He flew back from the impact and hit a tree. Now that the trees were cleared,
Demand eyed the raven haired woman wearing the short red skirt.
"Ah, one of the legendary Sailor Senshi."
Closing the distance between them, she ignored his comment and began
to charge up for another, more powerful blast.
Beginning to get nervous, Demand stared into the woods as more senshi
popped out from behind trees. "Well, I guess we'll have to meet again some
other time!" He turned to look at where Wiseman had fallen. "Quick, they're
coming. Let's go!"
Mercury stopped running and cast a quiet attack. Unfortunately, Demand
and Wiseman teleported out as the air that was around them turned into ice.
She hissed then started running again towards where Sailor Mars was running
to.
"Where, where are they?" Jupiter questioned looking around. Her senses
answered her own question for she felt a majik disturbance from above. All
four of the senshi present looked up as a light, shaped like an entrance to
a ship, began to shut.
"Quick!" Venus shouted. The rest of the Senshi knew what she meant.
They held eachother's hands and called upon their power's.
"Mercury.. Mars.. Jupiter.. Venus.." they said relative to their
planet. "ULTIMATE SOLAR ARMEGADON!" Their costumes melted into pure white and
the tiara's on their heads disappeared. Their sigils gleamed with power and
them light from them concentrated at the center of their circle. An explosion
of pure energy burst from the concentration and headed up at the blackness.
Suddenly the sky was blue again. They had missed.
"Errh, I knew that thing's too slow," Jupiter grunted.
"Well we're gonna have to make it faster won't we." Venus answered.
Sailor Mars walked away from the group and made her way to the King.
"D..Endymion, are you OK? We're sorry we couldn't get to you faster but that
ship was blocking our.. OHH GODS!" Sailor Mars said in shock as she finally
saw what was within that crystal. The other senshi ran over and looked down
overwhelmed as well.
King Endymion was lying over the crystal, running his hands over the
portion where Serena's face was visible. He cast a spell, one he knew that
affected crystal but it did nothing. He tried again, this time with more
energy making his hands glow and hurt from trying so hard. And again, nothing.
"No! NOOO!" he screamed pounding his fist on it's surface. "SERENA!"
*
The rest of that day was a blur of disasters. The war with The Black
Moon family began. They came in their ships and destroyed many newly formed
cities on Earth, including some portions of Crystal Tokyo. The Senshi were
able to hold off the armadas of ships from destroying the city completely
though. And a warning from Sailor Pluto saved the Moon city from becoming
ashes.
Though this news was terrible to him, agony ravished the King more
when he found out that possibly, only the Ginzuishou was able to release
his wife from the crystal imprisonment. Tragically, it was nowhere to be
found. That's when his depression began and why the Crystal Millennium was
losing.
***
(Back from the Flashback)
<It's my fault you're in there. If.. if you hadn't blocked that blast
meant for me, you'd be OK. Oh Serena, why?.. If you hadn't loved me. If you
weren't mine, would you have been trapped like this? No, and now I know it
is better for you not to have ever loved me.> He breathed in heavily and
called
upon his powers. Again he wished, but unlike the other times, something
happened. He felt an outside energy aiding his message to reach the past.
Feeling the source, he looked up through the crystal ceiling at the expanding
flame of power. <Looks like a nuclear blast..> he smiled. <I guess then,
this will all end soon.> But as quickly as it came, it disappeared. he blinked
in surprised then sighed. His way out of this misery wasn't that simple to
achieve. King Endymion then looked back down to the crystal casket and gasped.
Right in front of his eyes, the crystal and the body inside began to
dissolved into particles of energy.
"Wha...what, what's going on?" He put his arms around the crystal
not knowing what else to do. In a matter of seconds, it completely vanished
and there he sat, completely shocked with his arms still position in the way
he was hugging the crystal. Finally, his body fell distraughtly to the ground,
and he lay there whimpering. <My wish did something, probably made things
worst. Now she's gone, gone.>
He didn't know how long he was in that state of anguish, but then he
felt her presence. Darien looked around the room and noticed two long blond
pony tails blowing in the wind as the woman they belonged to stood on the
terrace looking out at the city.
***
A long time seemed to have past since the explosion.
Sailor Uranus stood, looking and wearily pounding her fist onto the
table where the viewing globe sat. <God damn those bastards! They got him..>
"I..I knew..I I should have.." She couldn't continue, the tears and pain
where
to horrible. Instead, her mind whirled with remorse and self-blame.
Michiru sat on the floor, near Hotaru. She wanted to comfort her
friends, they were in so much shock and pain, but yet she could not over
come her own to get up. She shook her head as a hopes of him surviving
surfaced in her head. <Few things can survive a nuclear blast, and Joer,
however powerful couldn't have.. it's my fault.. if I hadn't modified his
communicator, Hotaru would have been able to tell him.> The thought made
her tears fall hotter.
Of the three, her eyes were the driest. Sailor Saturn's heart had no
more room for sadness, all she could feel was hatred. Her Queen was trapped,
her love was most likely dead. This rage urged that power to grew within.
Finally, her mind called for the Silence.
The energy ran through her hands, making them reach out to the other
dimension for something she had hoped never to use again since that time. In
a
blink of an eye, it materialized in her hands, having a radiance full of
death.
Neptune saw the gaive form in her hands, prompting her to rise.
"Hotaru, NO!"
Sailor Saturn ignored her and started to walk to the exit.
Hearing the commotion, Haruka wiped her eyes, and turned to look.
"What! No, Sailor Saturn, don't." She ran in front of her before she could
exit.
Hotaru stopped and looked at her with emotionless features.
"Hotaru, look, awch!" she said startled as a stinging pulse of pain
encompassed her hand when she tried to touch Sailor Saturn's shoulder. "Hey!
Come on Hotaru be sensible."
Hotaru began to walk forward again with a field of death energy
surrounding her. Haruka took a step back then called upon the heavens for her
space sword. "Listen here, I won't let you leave to KILL YOURSELF! YOU GOT
THAT!" she said shouting as Hotaru continued to move. Haruka knew she couldn't
convince her when her mind was set like this, but she had to try anyway. She
had failed before in stopping Joer, but she wouldn't fail now. Her sword
glowed with power, enough to possible pierce through the shield and knock
Hotaru unconscious, she hoped. "I'm warning you for the last time, Hotaru,
you can't go."
Sailor Saturn continued to ignore her.
"I'm sorry.. SPACE SHOCK!" The beam flew from her sword dead on
towards Hotaru's shield. Sailor Uranus instinctively ducked as the beam bounce
off the field then hit the door behind Haruka. Sailor Uranus, continued to
duck, surprised by that effect.
And Hotaru stopped also surprised. She felt another field surrounding
her so she turned around to see Michiru holding up her Soul Mirror.
Michiru shook her head at her. "Hotaru, I know how you're feeling but
suicide isn't the right.. "
"WHAT IS RIGHT?!? WHAT!" Hotaru screamed. "This is the only RIGHT I
see. What things were right before were taken away and now.. now I have to do
this. Because I don't want to see the people I love get hurt anymore. NO MORE!
My life means nothing if I know everyone will live on."
"You're wrong Hotaru, we wouldn't live happily with out you!" Haruka
shouted.
Hotaru grunted and swung the Silence Gaive at the Soul Mirror's shield
holding her prisoner. The impact caused a spark but nothing else. She swung
again, not holding out but, as before, nothing happened. She was determined
though, and she continued to swing at the shield with all her might.
"Hotaru, stop it! Stop that and listen to me damnit!"
Hotaru, partially frustrated; stopped to listen.
Haruka sighed and hoped Hotaru was in a more reasonable mood right
now.
"Please understand Hotaru, that sacrificing your life for revenge isn't what
the SailorSenshi are about. We are to protect Earth at all costs.."
"But I am protecting Earth AND at all costs," she interrupted.
"No Hotaru, what you're about to do is just an act of cold vengeance.
There's no thought in you're actions, the pain your feeling is blinding.."
"It is not blinding me! It gives me strength!"
Michiru whispered almost inaudibly, "You'd never make it to Dark
Nemesis, Hotaru, you'd be killed before you could land."
Hotaru wanted to protest this but she knew it was true. All four of
them had tried to invade the asteroid before but they couldn't even get near
it. The Black Moon Family's ships were too much of a defensive power. She
instead sighed and whimpered out. "So what do you want me to do, just sit
here and and act as if nothing happened?"
"You must accept that Joer is gone, but we must continue to honor
what he has taught us by staying together. We must be his team.
She stared back at Michiru, and now sadness swept across her face.
"I've already accepted his death. I just want to get back at his killers."
"Trust me, Hotaru, that's what we want too." Uranus began. "But we
have to work together and plan things. We can't go head first with out
thinking."
Hotaru nodded, and Haruka nodded back. "I understand."
"OK then?" Michiru inquired.
Haruka smiled at her prompting her to release Hotaru. When the shield
fell Hotaru immediately dashed for the exit. Haruka couldn't believe her, <She
must have gone crazy!>. Haruka intercepted her in a tackle and they both fell,
knocking their weapons out of their hands. The two then began to wrestle each
other as they rolled around the room.
Michiru, just looked at them knowing they were just letting their
frustrations out. She stopped staring at them when she saw the viewing globe
turn on and someone's face upon it. Michiru blinked a couple of times, not
believing what she was seeing.
*
"Hello, yohoo? Anyone there?" Joer questioned moving his head around
the viewing orb on Setsuna's time staff to see better around the War room.
*
Running over to the viewing globe, her eyes filled with tears. Michiru
stopped for a second in front of the sphere to look at Joer face and smiled
then quickly wrapped her arms around it.
*
Joer's eyes widened and his head moved back in surprise for Michiru's
cleavage pretty much covered most of his view.
Pluto giggled out from behind him.
"Umm... Hello Michiru?" Joer said, with his eyes transfixed on
her breast, filling up the viewing ball. "Umm, can you uhh.. It's hard for me
to talk to you like this."
*
Continuing to roll on the floor, Haruka caught a glimpse of Michiru
hugging the viewing globe. She stopped them from rolling anymore to see what
was happening to Michiru. Uranus felt her heart lift when she saw who's face
was on the globe. Her hand quickly shot up to Hotaru's hair and pulled it so
her head would face where she was facing.
"Awee, awee!" Hotaru screeched with a painful expression on her face.
"Look Hotaru!" Haruka pointed.
Hotaru quickly forgot about the pain and that "other" feeling that
was building up within her. They immediately let go of each other and almost
flew to the table.
Michiru stopped hugging the globe, slightly embarrassed for she knew
what Joer meant. She blushed deeply making Joer chuckle lightly.
"It's OK.. hehheh, I didn't really mind," he assured her, then winked.
Michiru giggled lightly. She was too happy to see him alive to be
embarrassed anymore.
*
Suddenly, Joer saw Haruka and Hotaru pop into view, with their
costumes in a ruffle and their eyes filled with tears. "Hey you guys OK
there?"
Joer said in a caring tone.
*
The three women nodded and Haruka replied, "We are now. You're alive."
*
Joer acting arrogantly, responded with, "Why of course. You actually
thought I, the Moon King would get hurt. I scuff at the thought!" He winked
twice at them.
*
Michiru and Haruka smiled at eachother, knowing Joer had something
planned.
Hotaru didn't though and warned, "Quick, change channels. This isn't
a secure line. The Black Moon ships could pick this up."
*
"Oops, I thought this was a secure line, darnit!" He winked twice
again, hoping maybe Hotaru would understand. "Oh well, Demand will know that
I'm alive now."
*
"Ohh," Hotaru got it.
"How..how'd you survive that nuclear blast!?" Haruka asked, suddenly
curious.
*
Joer smiled. "Oh I'll tell you when I come back." He then coughed,
making them understand that he was about to set up is ploy. "Be sure to be
ready to receive me in 45 minutes, OK?"
*
"Forty-five minutes?" Hotaru protested. She suddenly felt Haruka's
hand on hers.
Haruka knew Joer's trap, they've discussed something like this
before. "Joer! Why'd you say that on this unsecured line. What if the enemy
was listening in!"
*
"I don't care if Demand knows I'm going back to the Moon. He won't try
it again, he isn't THAT stupid. I mean, who would waste so many ships just to
kill one person. And the funny part is they all failed! If I were him, I
wouldn't do it again."
*
Sailor Uranus nodded "OK, we'll be ready."
*
Joer nodded at them, then smiled at Hotaru. "Don't worry, honey, I'll
come home safely. Bye."
*
Sailor Saturn heart lifted and she sighed, "Bye.."
*
Joer, continuing to smile, handed the staff back to Setsuna.
Sailor Pluto's hand shook nervously as the staff came into her hand.
She couldn't believe what she'd just witnessed. <Joer and Hotaru together!
NO WAY!!!>
Joer seemed not to notice the surprise in Pluto's eyes, and turned
around to walk to Crystal Tower.
Sailor Pluto bit her lip for a second wondering if she should ask how
it happened. She decided then that she had to and quickly caught up to Joer.
"Umm, so, Joer, you and Hotaru are??"
"Oh.." Joer began to fidget a little. "Ahh, yeah, I guess so."
"Uh-huh, so ha..how did this umm..."
Joer, feeling his hands shaking, tried to stuff his hand down his
pocket but they were too small. He ended up ripping the pants a little from
the effort. "Doh!"
Setsuna felt a little better now, seeing how Joer was probably more
nervous than her. "Joer?" She put her hand on his shoulder as they both
stopped walking. "Never mind."
Joer shook his head rapidly, "No no, you deserve an explanation."
"I don't, we never were.. <lovers>," the word couldn't come out from
her mouth. "It was always better to be just friends. And as a friend, you
don't have to tell me."
Joer still felt that she deserved to know something, since he'd known
her longer than anyone, but he relented and sighed, "OK, but if you ever want
to know I would never keep anything from you."
She smiled then hugged him. "I know you wouldn't." And with her
powers, she forced her tears to stop from flowing. Continuing to hug him, she
whispered, "Congratulations, I know you two are going to make a great
couple."
Joer blinked surprised for a second, then thought <but of course,>
"So you know."
"Know what?" she asked pulling away slowly.
Joer closed his eyes straining, and smiled as he was actually able to
access his pocket dimension. The case appear in his hands and Sailor Pluto
understood.
"You've proposed?"
"No, no.. not yet atleast. But when I get back, I know it'll be the
right time to ask her." He opened up the box and the ring sparkled
beautifully in the light.
Sailor Pluto put on a fake smile, thinking <if I hadn't said..>
Joer suddenly realized something. <Woops this is the same ring!> He
immediately. stuffed it back. "Well, I guess it's time to prepare, we've only
got about half an hour to.. Setsuna?"
Setsuna's fake smile had faded to a blank look, as she tried to figure
out why she had done what she had then. She was brought back to reality seeing
how Joer was staring at her. "Oh yeah, uhh.. half an hour to?"
"Prepare. You've got to tell me the status of Crystal Tokyo's military
defenses and we need to program a hologram of me."
"Oh, why?"
"Remember, what I said to the Outers?"
"Oh yeah, phff, you actually believe Demand's stupid enough to fall
into that trap? Especially cause anyone would see that it was a trap.. that
WAS the worst acting I've ever seen by the way."
"No kidding, but I know Demand. He'd be so angry right now, that he
wouldn't care if it was a trap. So come on, let's get to the palace, I'm
starting to lose feeling in my lower body, damn shirt." He pulled at the
collar again.
She smiled. "OK." He then grabbed her hand and together, they began
to
run to the palace as she thought, <Hmm, friends. (sigh) Always best friends.>
***
The wine glass cracked, then shattered in his hands. "WISEMAN!" The
room was silent for a moment afterwards, as Demand stood furious after having
seen the intercepted message. A few moments ago, there had been a
celebration going on for the three occupants believed that the Moon King
was dead. His glee replaced by frustration, Demand, once again shouted
Wiseman's name causing Esmeraud to step away from him.
A dark and evil mist began to conjugate in the center of the room.
In a moment it formed Wiseman.
"Fool! You said that Joer would die, and now I see that he has
survived. Your plan Wiseman, was a TOTAL failure! He lives while hundreds
of my men are dead and 20 of my finest ships are destroyed!"
Surprisingly, Wiseman began to laugh. "No Demand, I haven't failed.
The Moon King has died. And now the things I have foreseen will come to
order."
"WHAT!?!" Demand roared half enraged and half confused.
"If you haven't noticed already, Demand, then I must congratulate you
for you ignorance. You've fought the Moon King many times before. You've seen
his feature the opposite of yours, but now he hasn't."
Something clicked in Demand's brain. "But of course, his sigil, it's
gone... but what does it matter? He is still alive."
"No, Joer, the mortal, is alive, but not the Moon King."
"You're right, Wiseman, I am ignorant," he replied in a sarcastic
tone. "I don't see how this will get us anywhere. All he has to do is change
back from his mortal form like it says in the legends."
His laugh filled the room. "He can not turn back into the Moon King,
that identity has suffered too much damage. Kamikaze did her job right."
"I see, and him returning to the Moon is a total crock. It's just
a trap.. and you have a counter attack?" Wisman seemed to nod. "I sense a
plan developing."
"The plan has already been drawn out, Demand. I've foreseen this."
Wiseman conjured up an image of Crystal Tokyo, with the Death Sphere and
many Black Moon Ships hovering above the city. "Let me ask you something,
Demand. Who are the only people you know who can resist hypnosis?"
Demand smiled, starting to understand the advantage now. "Serenity,
that so called King of Earth, and Moon King."
"Correct, see you aren't so ignorant. Now that all three have been
disabled, we can take control of Crystal Tokyo with the mind control device."
"Uh.." Sapphir spoke up, "that shield around the city prevents any
psyke waves from passing through and our ships have to be close to the city,
and uncloaked for it to work."
"He has a point Wiseman," Esmeraud added.
"That's where that mortal posing for the Moon King made his mistake.
I foresee him sending a decoy up the for-stretched shield and setting up
ground artillery to fire at any ship trying to attack that decoy." The
hologram showed exactly what Wiseman described.
"Oh.." Demand sighed. "And I suppose you will ask me to sacrifice more
ships in this effort?"
"Yes, I would appreciate it if some of your ships were to assist.
But you needn't worry. Their ground troops will be under our control before
they can fire a shot." The image of the Death Sphere emitted a ray of dark
energy onto the tube part of the shield heading up to the moon. "Now we know
that this part of the shield is much weaker and with a modulating beam, it
can be used in making a psyke wave."
The three observers eye's widened in amazement. "That's..that's
brilliant!" Demand stuttered.
***
"OK, first things first. That suit right, you want it changed?"
Joer huffed, puffed, and sucked. <Being a mortal stinks.. I can't
even run half a mile without tiring.> "Uh.. what? What about what?"
"The suit silly. Here, guard." she called out to one by the
palace entrance.
"Oh, no no, never mind the suit. We, (weezing) need to get ready.
Huhh, so.. what's the military's condition."
Sailor Pluto rolled her eyes. "Fine.. forget the suit. Water?"
"No. Just fill me in, I'll catch my breath in a minute."
She sighed as they walked into the palace and headed to the war room.
"Well, now with the supplies you arrived with, our military defenses are
almost to full strength. There are seventy-five mobile energy canons, twenty,
stationary, ninety-six phalanx guns positioned on key building throughout
Crystal Tokyo." She pushed her hand onto the key pad, and the door opened for
them. The four guards inside bowed, and then Sailor Pluto waved them away.
"Yes General!" they voiced almost simultaneously, then walked out of
the room."
"Jee, you act so smug around your guards," Joer commented.
Setsuna gave him a look. "Well, it's just the same way I treated
you when we first met in this life time. They need to know they have a boss
whose got teeth."
"Of course, how could I forget. The lioness, Setsuna Meiou."
"Rarrrr," she roared, but more suitably purred.
That brought a chuckle from Joer. "Ok, ok, what else?"
"And, hum.. three thousand guards, and only one active Senshi." She
smiled half heartedly. "While four are stuck keeping us safe."
Joer breathed in deep, somewhat disappointed. "No nukes?"
"Uh-uh. No plutonium on Japan. We know only of the North American
site,
but ofcourse.."
"Yeah, don't remind me. I understand where they got there's. I just
hope they only had enough just for one bomb." They stood quietly for a
moment, as Joer studied the map of Crystal Tokyo.
"So," he finally said. "How's the time gate holding."
"Well. I don't think my spell earlier disturbed it too much."
"So it's still stopping the Black Moon Family from going back in
time?"
<Ooo, I hoped he wouldn't have asked that.> "Uhh, well, umm.."
Joer blinked once, then his eyes slowly grew bigger. "No Setsuna,
don't tell me there is a Black Moon presence in the past."
"Umm.. you see," she bit her lip for moment, <I knew I should have
told him.> She sighed and continued. "Right after Small Lady left, I'm
guessing one of the Black Moon Ships happened to slip in right before I
could close the time gate."
After taking in some pretty deep breaths, Joer managed to grumble,
"And why didn't you tell me this before? A whole ship, in the past is very
dangerous. And what about the Princess?"
"She's safe, the senshi of the past are taking care of her."
"Yes, I remember that, but what about the Black Moon ship, I DON'T
remember that."
Setsuna sighed, explaining temporal mechanics wasn't easy, especially
since she understood it so well that she couldn't see how other couldn't
understand it. "Joer, it's the correct world line. One Black Moon ship
is suppose to go back in time and you will remember that they did go back in
time."
Joer shook his head and replied with, "Forget it. This is one of time
thingies and the infinite consequence types, and I hate talking about it. I
trust you. Just tell me why you didn't tell me before that a Black Moon ship
made it to the past."
"I didn't think it was necessary. Everything will go well, that's why
we are still alive now in the present. You would of just gotten more worries."
"Then why'd you tell me now?"
"Because you asked."
"Uhh, doh." He slumped down for a moment, then regained his
composure.
"Anyways, let's get back to work here. Where's your hologram emitter?"
"It's over there.. ummm not working so well." She said as she turned
to look at the burnt out computer console at the back of the room. It was one
of the first systems to break down after the first strike.
Joer cringed as he too saw it. "Damnit, now what do we use?
They'll never decloak if they don't see me."
"Umm.. I know!" she responded as her face glowed. "I'll go get
it." Setsuna walked out of the room before he could ask what "IT" was.
He shrugged then turned to the map of Crystal Tokyo. Joer looked
it over carefully for a second, then repositioned the characters
representing troops on the map to places more inconspicuous. <This might
help encourage Demand's ships to decloak,> he thought. Having have done
half of the necessary planning for this battle, he sat down on the table,
slightly impatient with Setsuna's time consuming search for what ever
"IT "was. A few moments later, a sound caught his attention. It came from
the corridor leading to where the Inner Senshi were. Joer stood up and
cautiously walked to the corridor. Down it, he could see the warm
light, yet nothing else. The sound came again, <Was that a groan?>
Curious, he found himself moving through the corridor, and then within
the room where the Inner Senshi meditated to keep Crystal Tokyo's shield
up. Joer studied their features for moment, then noticed the slight
look of disturbance on Sailor Mars' face. She grinted her teeth, and the
silence in the room was broken by her moan, seemingly of frustration.
<It's has to be difficult to stay as concentrated as they are for the many
hours this shield is up.. (her features then became blank and expressionless)
but they can handle it; I know it. They have courage beyond belief,> thought
Joer, appreciating these Warrior Women's strengths.
*** (In Sailor Mars' mind)
A beauty so great came to her minds eye. She was turned away from
her, but from the hair, Sailor Mars knew who it was. The woman turned
around and smiled. She raised her arms up to her. From her lips, Raye
could read the words 'I love you'. But she thought, <NO.. no,> and forced
herself to turn away. <This is just your imagination. You HAVE to
concentrate on the shield. Don't get distracted.. keep focused.> The woman
came to her mind again, but this time Raye heard her say, " Please, love,
come to me. I need you." And for a moment, she felt herself release, but
as quickly, she shunned the thought away. <You must concentrate, Raye Hino,>
she urged herself. From within she called upon what her grandfather taught
her over a thousand years ago. A fire so pure emerged in her mind, and from
that she focused. Once more her mind was silent, ignoring the woman's plea.
At least for now.
***
The room was mute, hauntingly mute. Yet the warm glow from the
circle the senshi formed kept him calm. He moved slowly around them,
proud that he had once been their sensei. Joer stopped abruptly when
he was infront of Sailor Venus. <She looks so much like her mother,>
his mind whispered, and the thoughts flowed. His wife's image filled
his mind, with a smile that could stop men's hearts. And his did for
a second. And for that second, he lost control. His hand reached up
to touch Sailor Venus's face.
"Joer?" Setsuna whispered, seeing the sadness which encompassed
him.
Joer blinked, and his hand quickly fell to his side. He looked
towards Setsuna and smiled fakely. "Oh, hey you're back. I was just
wondering how you would tell them to extend the shield."
"Well it's simple really. I just make mental contact and tell
them. Anyways, I've got it," she whispered back, then motioned for
him to come with her.
Joer sighed, wishing that he could spend more time here, but
he followed her none the less.
Setsuna felt sorry for Joer. She knew he had never really gotten
over Aphrodite's death. And the times when he was near Mina, she knew
he couldn't help but think of her.
Entering the war room, Joer gasped in astonishment at a perfect
replica of the Moon King. "Wow! That looks exactly like me, face,
body, suit, armor, and all. Who is it?"
"It's nobody. It's a droid Sailor Mercury and I have constructed to
combat the Black Moon's droids. I hope you don't mind that we used you as
our model."
Joer's face reddened a little "No, I'm flattered. But why me?"
She paused. Mercury and her had decided on him from a perverted
joke they had. She couldn't tell him that. "Ah, no real reason.. really."
Joer walked up to it and examined it closely. "I'm still amazed
at how much it looks like me. The hair is absolutely perfect, the stripes
and all," he said somewhat giddily.
Sailor Pluto rolled her eyes. <I can't believe he still has that
obsession about those stripes. Ever since that time he first became
the Moon King... heehee, wait till he finds out..>
Realization crossed Joer's mind. He pulled his bangs down and
examined it. Worried from finding no inkling of black, he began to
push more and more of his hair forward to see if his fear had come true.
<Nooo NO!> He ran over to a computer monitor. He saw his reflection
making him wine, "My haiiirrrrr.. Why, why didn't you say so?" He turned
to look at Setsuna, with the saddest puppy face he could make.
"Because you look the same. Really."
He put his face in his hands and began to sob.
Sailor Pluto walked over to him and patted his back. "Don't
worry. I bet you'll get it back when you're the Moon King again."
Joer quit his pseudo sobbing and looked up her. "Damn that
Demand. It's his fault my hair's like this! Well for that, I'll
definitely kill him!"
Setsuna shook her head, amazed at how nutty Joer could be at
some times. "Well come on. Let's get back to work already."
"Yeah, good idea. I have the map set up with troops in the
locations I'd like them to be at," he said moving back to the droid.
"And now all we have to do is program this thing to act like me.. can
it fly?"
"Yes. Amy and I were sure to make him very agile, and versatile."
"Good, good," he said examining it again. Then he pushed his
finger on the moon sigil on the droids forehead. But nothing happened.
"Is it on?"
"Oh no, no. Here," she replied as she put her hands down the back
side of it's pants. She found the small ON button between the crack of
his butt.
Joer gave her a dumbfounded look. "Uhh, that's a pretty weird
place to have the ON button."
Pulling her hand out, then wiping it on the droids cape, she
responded with, "Well, it's at the other moon."
That gave Joer a good laugh. Recovering from that, Joer watched
as the droid blinked, then smile.
"How may I help you?" Moon King said in a tone too waiter like
for Joer's attitude.
Joer stuck out his hand, and the droid responded by shaking it.
"Smart," he commented and continued to shake hands. "You, my friend,
will help end this war." And then let go, noticing something. "Weird,
his hand's sticky."
<WHOOPS!> Sailor Pluto blushed deeply.
*** (This is a hentai scene! Skip if you don't like hentai!)
Hotaru sat on the table where the viewing globe sat. "I'm so
happy he's alive," she sighed.
"So am I," Haruka admitted.
"Me three," Michiru added. And they sat silently, for a moment
recovering from the strange events.
"I'm sorry." Sailor Saturn and Uranus blurted out simultaneously.
Then smiles spread across their faces.
"This is getting old," Michiru joked.
"But really, Haruka, I'm sorry I did that. I'll never act that
strange again."
"That's OK, Hotaru. I didn't mind rolling around on the floor
with you. It was kind of fun." Haruka winked.
She opened her mouth to tell her the same, but ended up closing
it, and turning away.
Uranus knew how uneasy she could get, but she thought <It's the
best time for lesson two.> "Hey we have close to forty-five minutes to
do whatever we like. What do you want to do?"
<Oh-no,> thought Michiru.
"We don't have enough time to show you our hologram Joer, BUT we
don't really need that yet," Haruka added, then slid next to Hotaru.
<Oh-no,> thought Hotaru.
The two others were quiet, but she wasn't going to give up. Putting
her hand on Hotaru's shoulder and gently squeezing it, she murmured, "Look,
I know you felt something while we were rolling around like that Hotaru. A
senshi can tell if another senshi is feeling that way. Don't be embarrassed.
I liked it."
Hotaru quickly stood up and moved away. "Uh, well, I was thinking
maybe we should just stay in our capsules. This way we can be ready
if something happens sooner than Joer thinks."
"Oh, come on Hotaru! When Joer says forty-five minutes, he means it.
Hotaru.. HOTARU?" But Sailor Saturn was already in her capsule before she
could finish. Haruka grunted loudly. Then glared at Michiru, with a dangerous
smile.
Michiru shook her head rapidly, nervous.
Her elicit look, her voluptuous lips and her eyes so hypnotic, it
froze Michiru in her tracks like a pry of a cobra. She knew the inevitable,
as Haruka seemingly slithered to her. Shocked, like always, Michiru quivered
as Haruka's lips touched her neck. And the warmth spread. Michiru relented
and moaned as Haruka ravished her with warm kisses.
Her mouth positioned at Michiru's ear, she blew softly, " My love,
let's show Hotaru the pleasures we can give her."
"But we don't have time," she breathed back.
"Hmm, this will be quick." Her hand glided to Michiru's. Together,
they moved infront of Hotaru's capsule.
<I can't believe I can be so much putty in her hands,> Michiru's
mind murmured. But their relationship had always been like that. And
it needn't change either.
Haruka pressed the button which would open Hotaru's door.
Sailor Saturn, greeted them with a startled look. "Uhmm, Hi?!"
They stepped inside. (Let's just say the capsules not so small.)
"What, what are you guys doing?"
Michiru pressed the override button.
Hotaru found that she couldn't make the metallic tentacle interfaces
let go of her.
Haruka gave her that same wicked smile. "This is a lesson you
shouldn't
run from. It's one you'll never forget."
"But.." she began to protest.
But Sailor Uranus put her finger on her lips before she could finish.
"Shhhh.. this won't take long." Haruka moved her finger slowly off Hotaru's
lips and slid it over her face. Her hand gently rubbed her face. And at
the last moment, Hotaru saw Haruka smile warmly. Their lips met. Haruka felt
the pure innocence in Hotaru's kiss, she was trembling. And she knew she was
taking some of it away. That just made Haruka's blood flow hotter.
Hotaru couldn't stop. She knew she was under Haruka's control,
and that feeling within her came again.
She let her hands drift up and down Hotaru's slender form, as they
kissed more and more and more, feverously.
She gasped as they parted. "Hhh.. hhh.. Was that it?"
Sailor Uranus smirked. "I knew you wanted too." She dove in, kissing
Hotaru hard on the lips, then her chin, then her neck, everywhere, and then
she moved to her ear.
It tickled her, and she let out a giggle, which all of sudden turned
into a moan. Haruka, sucked her ear lobe.
Sailor Neptune grinned. She moved behind Hotaru and helped Haruka
message her body.
Sailor Uranus knew it was time. Her lips slithered down to the
bare part of Hotaru's chest. She pecked along her cleavage. Suddenly,
Hotaru's body was naked.
She pulled, and Hotaru's back bow came lose. Only if a senshi wanted
to, could the bow now only become untied. A problem Artemis fixed long ago.
Sailor Neptune's lips touched the back of Saturn's neck. She wanted this too.
Haruka flicked her tongue around Hotaru's nipple. The frail girl
cried out.
These pleasure became more and more intense. She wondered how much
more she could take before she would get burned by the intense heat
in her. That sensual fire was already burning high. Hotaru moaned harder
as Haruka treated her other nub.
Uranus would normally have more fun with these, but time was short.
So she moved down to the main course. Haruka smiled to herself as her hand
caressed Hotaru's mound. Teasing her, Haruka blew at her pearl.
"OH PLEASEEE!" Hotaru screeched. Then she closed her eyes tight.
Her tongue out-stretched, Haruka pressed her face into Hotaru's
womanhood.
She wanted to scream again, the pleasure was astounding. But she
couldn't, Michiru was kissing her. Kissing her forcefully. The pleasures
seemed to come from everywhere, and at great strengths. She felt Haruka's
fingers entering her, Michiru's tongue parting her lips and hands stroking
her breast, and Haruka flicking over her love button. The pressure and heat
that was building in her seemed to tear her insides with ecstasy as the two
made love to her. And that final thrust of Haruka's fingers, and that final
touch to her clitoris, and that final pinch to her nipple, and that final
kiss,
caused all of that built up tension to come violently out.
Michiru stopped kissing her and let Hotaru scream in delight. "Oohh
ohh, Har.. Haruka.. Yeesss!" She shook the metallic bonds holding her up as
her muscles in-between her legs tightened and as her arms clutched, wanting
to
grab out for them. Her orgasm peaked and she cried out loudly again and again.
Soon, it passed and her shaking died down." Yesss.. hhh.. syah.. hhhuhh.. "
Hotaru panted as Haruka flicked her clit a few more times while her orgasm
calmed. She then opened her eyes slowly and saw herself falling ontop of
Haruka.
Michiru pulled at her own bow after turning off the override. She
bent
down next to them letting her suit dissolved away.
Haruka held her gently in her arms, running her hands through her
hair.
"Did you like that?" she asked, then felt Hotaru nod on her shoulder. "Good.
Do you want to do the same to me?"
"Yes." Hotaru raised her head from her shoulder and kissed her like
she had never kissed another before. An urge to merge tongues, she forced it
through Haruka's lips. She tasted herself. It was delightful, and sweet.
So she wanted more, she'd go for both of theirs. Her arm reaching around
for Haruka's bow, Hotaru found Michiru's hand also there. They pulled together
ripping it.
Haruka gasped as she felt the sudden cold of the metal floor but her
breath was only sucked in by Hotaru. Not being able to breath, she pushed
Hotaru off. "Haah.. hhhh, you're so eager!"
She replied, "I want to taste you.. I want it!" Then wiggled out
of Haruka's grasp and slammed her face into Haruka's vagina.
Her eyes shot open wide as she laid on the floor and Hotaru fiercely
ate away at her opening.
An amused look crossed Michiru's face as she gently rubbed Haruka's
body while watching Hotaru. "I think you created a monster."
Haruka could only answer back with a moan. The way Hotaru was fucking
her, almost hurt, yet she loved it so much. Then she felt her suddenly stop.
Looking down, she caught Hotaru grinning evilly. Her face was wet, very
wet. But her eyes were showing the glow of intense passion.
Michiru shivered as she felt Hotaru glaring at her. "What? I didn't
mean any.."
She licked her lips and closed her eyes, savoring the taste. A second
later, she leapt onto Michiru, with her weight forcing the other woman down
on to her back. Quickly, she moved down and did to Michiru what she had done
to Haruka. One of her hands parted her slit while the other pushed her fingers
deep into Michiru. The juices flowed out and she soon found out what Haruka
meant by "the loud one".
"OH SHIT YESS.. Ofuk YES.. YES." And Michiru continued to scream,
until Haruka's mound was at her face. Immediately, she went to her duty
in pleasuring her lover. Her tongue expertly moved around inside Haruka.
She couldn't imagine how she was able to do so, with the way Hotaru was
pleasuring her.
Haruka grunted softly feeling Michiru eating away at her. Soon she
would welcome the feeling she desired.
With a thirst matched only be a man stranded in a desert, hers forced
her to suck and tongue all that she could from Michiru's throbbing vagina. It
was bitter yet ever so inviting. Soon her mouth found it's way to her erect
clit. She rapped it in between her lips and slurped at it, while one of
her own hands found her own pleasure center, digging deep into it.
Michiru's back arched up as her orgasm took over her body. Hotaru
licked away frantically. Haruka's tension also released, and she bent over
helping Hotaru lick away at Michiru's cumming cunt. The world moved for them,
as fear, anger, hate, hopelessness, and frustration, all the strong emotions
that had gather since the war started was released. All three suddenly found
themselves in total ecstasy. All over, they felt warm and secure. Slowly it
passed and the warmth, the light went with it.
Her eye's blinked open, and she gasped. "What.. oh god what happened?"
She sat up and found Michiru and Hotaru at her sides, sleeping. Worried, she
looked up at the corner of the capsule at the digital clock. She sighed in
relief, they still had a few minutes before they need to be ready.
Michiru stirred, and then opened her eyes. She looked at her
questioningly.
Haruka shrugged. "I guess, the best orgasm of our lives."
Michiru giggled lightly then sat up with her.
Her hand moved to Hotaru's shoulder and gently shook her.
She woke up feeling totally rested, and the first things she saw
were her friends warm faces. "Hi..... Was it real?"
They nodded.
Then she sat up quickly remembering. "What about Joer?"
"Don't worry, we still have time." Haruka said calmly. She got up
and stretched. In flash of light, she had her suit once again.
"Hotaru, honey, you were an animal," Michiru added, also getting up
and stretching.
She smiled for a second, then her bashfulness took over. "I.. I'm
sorry."
Michiru and Haruka were taken back. Being able to recover first,
Michiru got down and looked comfortingly into her eyes. "Hotaru, never be
sorry at what just happened. It was beautiful. I loved it. I love you."
"Really?" That delightful smile spread across her face again.
"Yes, really. Haruka and I are very proud of you."
"I'm especially proud." Haruka reached down and picked Hotaru up
to stand. "But you have many things to learn, and we'll have to teach
you more later. As much as I love seeing you like this, you need to get
dressed and ready."
Her smile widened further. Then she nodded as her sailor fuku
materialized.
"Good, now we're all ready to kick some butt, right?"
"Uh-hum."
Haruka grinned, then kissed her on the forehead. She then moved
her mouth over Hotaru's ear and whispered, "I bet you can't wait till the
next lesson." She quickly moved away and walked out of the capsule.
She felt her cheeks warm up, then Michiru's lips on hers. It was
quick and before she knew it, Michiru had winked at her and was out the
door. She sighed, and smiled to herself.
***
He stared at her for a few moments wondering if he was only dreaming
she was there. He wanted to go to her, to hold her, to be with her, yet he
was afraid. How painful could this be if she wasn't real? He would surely
die from the sudden rise and fall of hope.
A century seemed to have passed but Endymion had somehow managed to
acquired the courage to see if his eyes told the truth. <Oh be there, be
true. Do not disappear. I love you.> He got up from his lying position and
crouched. For some reason, he chose not to walk to her, but to quietly crawl
to her. She was on the other side of the room at the large open window where
the terrace hung, so far away. Yet he wanted to take his time, so he could
prepare for the pain if she did suddenly disappeared.
King Endymion was almost to her, so close, he could see the tears
on the side of her cheek. <Why is she crying? She should be happy to be
out of that prison. And-and.. why doesn't she notice me? We have a bond..
can she not feel me? I feel her.. but not really, she's different.> His
realization forced him to stop. His heart pounded, and then something else
pounded. The sound became more distinct. The sound of heels, high heels
rushing up the stairs to this room. He looked to see just as the person
entered. <Sailor Mars?>
***
"OK!" Joer high fived the droid. It smiled goofily at him. "You ready
amigo?" He'd just finished programming this droid with memories, which
included
a few of his fighting techniques. Well, enough to make it look somewhat like
it
knew how to fight.
It cocked it's head to the left for a split second then, straightened.
"Yes."
"They are too." Sailor Pluto said from behind him. She'd just come
from the room the inner senshi were in.
"Good, then let's get this show on the road." He walked over to the
large screened computer and turned on the viewer. It showed a city block,
which was directly under the point where the shield would stretch to the
Moon, and the sky above. Seemingly empty, it was quite the contrary. He
knew that Demands ships were cloaked and floating near that point.
What he hoped Demand didn't knew was that his ground forces were hiding.
"Computer, patch communications to commanders on encoded frequency.
77-A" The computer beeped back, signaling that it had made contact. "Are all
weapons ready?"
A visual of the eight commanding guards appeared on the left side of
the screen. "Yes, sire." They said one by one.
He nodded at them, and then said, "When the droid passes, be ready
to fire. They decloak fast, so don't hesitate to shoot. Remember, the
shield's
extension is not impermeable. They will concentrate their fire power upon
that. Make sure they don't get through." A final solute to his commanders
and the transmission ended.
Joer took in a deep breath, as Sailor Pluto patted his shoulder.
"Let's get to it." He nodded at the droid, and it again smiled goofily at
him. He chuckled from that, calming him alittle. "Go, and kick some ass.
And one more thing, if you so happen to see a man with white hair and
a black-upside down crescent moon on his forehead, save him for me."
The Moon King saluted both of them and walked out of the room.
"You know," Joer looked to Setsuna." I feel sorry for it. I doubt
it'll survive."
Setsuna felt sorry to. <Back to lonely nights.. Too bad.> But she
didn't show how she was feeling. "Hey it's better than losing you, right?"
"Thanks."
***
The fire, her source of sanity faded. The vision she had next made
her terrified.
Next to her lay the one she loved. Their bodies bare, and together
like
lovers. Fear stricken, she tried to move, but this body seemed not to mind
the
situation. It did not respond with the shock she had. It's heart pounded
softly, with a rhythm one could only have when in love. Mars wondered if she
was watching through someone else's eyes.
Serena slept in her arms. Then a moan, and she awoke, staring at her
face. "Good morning."
"Good morning," a voice said. Mars thought it sounded familiar.
"Did you sleep well, Raye?" A smile escaped Serena's lips.
<Oh GODS!>
"Of course."
Serena's face came closer, closer, and then she felt their lips
touching. It was like what she'd always dreamed, but more sweet then she
could
have ever imagined. <This is real, isn't it?>
They parted and Serena brushed her hand down Raye's body, stopping at
her stomach "I feel it, you feel it?"
Raye nodded.
A bright light replaced everything.
*
Her eye's blinked open.
Finding herself in the coalition circle, she grimaced. More and more
of those confusing memories crossed her mind. <Memories, wait, non of
that happened.. right? I..> She winced, straining to remember what was
right. She couldn't.
Determined as always, she wouldn't let whatever kind of trick this
was bother her. She closed her mind and concentrated.
But the pictures she saw were like the others. Things she hoped for
yet feared. Scenes of them together, like she lusted for in her youth.
Screaming, she broke out of the circle.
***
"There he comes!" Esmeraud announced.
"Hmm, definitely a fake!" Demand smiled. "The real Moon King doesn't
fly like the Rocketeer. He fly's like Super Man."
"It's a good fake." Sapphir commented. "I wonder who it is?"
"It is a droid." Wiseman said from behind him. "Now stop wondering
about it and be ready for what is really needed to be done."
"Uh yes, of course, umm." Sapphir, shivered, but managed to lock on
the now extending part of the shield. "Ready."
"On my mark." Demand smiled. <I'll get you now!>
Sapphir looked to his brother, while his finger shook above the
decloak button. <His patience is amazing!>
Demand waited, waited until the shield and the fake Moon King passed
near where the Death Sphere was cloaked. "Now, NOW!"
Sapphir pressed the button fiercely.
Along with the Death Sphere, hundreds of Black Moon Ships decloaked.
And as soon as the Death Sphere finish decloaking, Sapphir, reached up and
turned on the modulating beam, aiming for the center of extend shield.
Unfortunately for them, it vanished.
Demand looked to Wiseman. But he got nothing from him.
Milliseconds later, all hell broke lose.
***
Joer stared trance like at the screen. He was wondering why Demand had
not decloaked yet, with the Moon King already at the extended part of the
shield. Sailor Pluto did the same.
Then everything seemed to happen all at once.
Next to him, he heard Setsuna cry out in pain. He looked over and
watched her fall clutching her stomach as though she had just been gut
punched. He was about to lean down, when the alarms sounded from everywhere,
yet they weren't loud enough to drown the sound of high-heals pounding on
the floor. His eye's widened in shock to see Sailor Mars running past them,
and out the door. He immediately turned back to the screen and watched as
Demand's ships decloak.. and Crystal Tokyo's shield dissolving just as a
black ray of energy emerged from the largest and most evil ship he'd ever
seen. In the corner of his eye, he noticed the computer's analysis of the
beam. 'Modulator' it said. And at the speed of light, or seemingly so,
his mind sighed in relief, some what understanding the predicament they had
just luckily averted. Energy beams flew from everywhere. From everything on
the screen, and he smiled now. Watching the Black Moon ships being torn
inside out. Yet that lasted only for a moment. He felt Sailor Pluto gripping
his ankle.
"Joer!" she screamed, and again. "Joer!" Then finally he heard her
after she'd grabbed him.
"Setsuna, sorry. What's wrong?" He leaned down.
"Everything." She groaned.
"No way." He pointed to the screen. "Don't you see, we're winning!"
She shook her head, with an obviously painful expression on her
face.
He realized that he hadn't paid attention to her. She could have
been really hurt. "What is it? You're in pain, Setsuna?"
"Joer.." she winced. Everything in here felt suddenly wrong. "Get
us out."
Without hesitation, he picked her up and carried her out the door.
***
Sailor Mars cleared the last set of stairs and slowed. <Is it
her? Is she free?!>
Mars walked slowly to her. Her hands shivered, but they somehow
managed to reach up for her shoulder. The woman turned around, and she
knew it could be no other. Those eyes, eyes that were so innocent even
with the most hellish situations facing them.
"Serenity."
"What took you so long?" she asked, then quickly hugged her.
Mars did not hug her back.
"I was starting to get worried.. what's wrong?" Serenity felt her
uneasiness.
"I.. I don't know, there's just so.. so many things.. I can't
explain them." They stared at eachother, like strangers, but something
hit Mars, and she smiled suddenly. "You're free, I'm so.. " Her eyes
watered, but she knew better then to cry infront of Meat Ball head. She
wiped her eyes immediately.
Serenity gently brushed her cheek like she was use to doing it.
"Free?"
She blinked, confused. "From that crys.."
A large explosion far off interrupted their conversation. Both
looked out the terrace at small black dot's exploding. But one was
getting larger. The evil it presented made them shiver.
"What is that?"
Mars looked at her Queen in disbelief. <What's wrong with her, has
she forgotten.. that day? I..> and slowly she forgot herself. In her mind
memories started disappearing; and new ones took there place.
"Raye?"
She shook her head. Puzzled for a second, but she remembered what
those things were outside.
"Serenity, I mean Serena, they are all evil. We must stop them."
Serenity's smile widened. To her, Mars was acting more like herself.
She hardly ever called her Serenity. The Queen nodded.
Suddenly, Crystal Palace shook.
The two held on to eachother, keeping them from falling. They quickly
looked outside and noticed that one of the small dots had gotten quite larger.
It fired again, and again. The palace shook harder.
"Serena!"
"We will stop it."
Surprised, Mars looked to her Queen. "How? Your crystal, the
Ginzuishou, it's missing. I alone won't be able to stop that.."
Serenity shook her head at her. "Our Crystal?! How could it ever be
missing?" Then she moved her head forwards. Their lips touched.
Her eye's widened. For a moment. Yet it was so sweet, so powerful.
She melted into her passion.
A power grow between them, then Mars felt Serenity's hands around
hers.
That power formed something warm in her hands. They parted, hands still
entwined.
Mars looked down and gasped. In her hands was a crystal, the
Ginzuishou
but within it's transparent body, she saw an Arrow. Mar's Arrow.
"Our love makes it. And in turn, it protects our love."
Mars looked deeply into her eyes. Then she remember all. The love,
that first night. That funny first night where everything unbelievable seemed
to happen. They kissed again, both sharing their love.
*
During all of this Endymion could only watch. Many times he wondered
if they knew he was there. That he existed. But they seem not to. And so he
saw them, together. Together. Endymion fell to his knees knowing how his
wish had changed everything. He remembered that night. The chimney where he
heard it all happen. Endymion crouched forward in pain. Then he saw his
arms. Translucent, and fading. Desperately, he reached out for them as they
were kissing. But before he could, he faded out of existence.
*
<Love, the ultimate force,> Mars' brain registered. <And together,
our love will cleanse evil. Will cleanse evil.> She felt their energies
joining, becoming one. One magnificent light to cleanse.
***
Demand grabbed the robed figure. "Bastard! You've killed us!" But the
being responded not.
He grunted, angry. But he would die his way. Letting go of Wiseman, he
turned to Sapphir. "Tell the other ships to retreat. We will attack on our
own."
"They can't! Our enemies are attacking from above, the Moon City. And
there's too much energy flying around for the ships to cloak and escape."
The ship shook violent, but survived a direct hit.
"Well then. Tell them to take out as much of anything as possible.
Head for the palace. We will destroy as much as we can."
Esmeraud looked at Demand as if he was a mad man. Even though his
tone had no sign of it, she was sure he was. Deciding that her butt was
more precious then anything, she creeped out of the bridge and headed for
an escape pod.
"Direct hit! Something hit our hull!" Sapphir warned. "But.. not
too much damage..."
Demand blocked out his brother warnings of hits and blocked out
all other things except for the picture of Crystal Tower on the bridge
viewer. <If I can't have you, I will destroy you!>
So the Death Sphere flew, dodging fire. And closer did the palace
get. "Fire, fire!" he finally shouted.
They hit the palace, and again doing damage. They were getting
closer to it. Suddenly ...
Purity.
It was coming, heading for them. Death crossed Demands mind. But
laughing, maniacal laughing. It rang in his ears. He turned to look at
Wiseman. Suddenly, everything turned black. Everything felt cold.
The Death Sphere vanished before the cleansing light could reach it.
***
Joer ran, carrying Setsuna in his arms. She shivered, and convulsed.
It made him feel terrible. He had ignored her, initially. He was too much
into the battle. But now, somehow she was hurt. He looked down at her face.
She was grimacing.
Frighteningly, the palace shook. Some walls nearby nearly fell over
on them. Luckily, Joer managed to get by and dodge them. As they neared
the exit more and more large chunks of the palace began to fall. Miraculously,
they made it out of the palace.
"Please, put me down." Setsuna said in a small voice.
He gently rested her on the grass. All of a sudden, a blinding light
lit everything up around them for a split second. Joer instinctively looked
up,
while his mouth gaped open in shock. <Serenity!>
"Eaahhhhhh!" Setsuna screamed. <Evil! It has passed through the gate.>
Joer looked back to Setsuna, missing the disappearance of the Death
Sphere. "What's wrong Setsuna? What is it!?"
"Everything," she said again.
"Damit! Give me a straight answer so I can help you!"
"Everything.. errhh.." She rolled onto her side clutching her
midsection.
"How can everything be wrong? We're winning. And Serenity, she's
back!
I saw that light, Setsuna. It is hers!"
She rolled again to look at him. Her eye's widened quickly. That
made Joer look up. Up at a large piece of the palace falling towards them.
Larger it became. Larger yet.
He closed his eyes awaiting death.
Nothing.
Nothing.
And he wondered if he had already been flattened.
"Joer.." She said softly.
Cautiously, he slowly opened his eyes. To see a large piece of
crystal capable of making them as thin as paper floating only a few
feet above. "Shit!"
Setsuna slowly got up, looking at Joer, frozen still from shock.
Eventually, he managed to look away from the large chunk of crystal, and
asked, "What just happened?"
"I was forced to stop time, Joer." Her voice was steady, but
had a clear tone of exhaustion. "Something evil has reached the past."
"I knew it." He stood up straight. "The Black Moon presence in the
past is screwing up time."
She wanted to say no, but she was unsure herself. Some time around
the time Small Lady had gone back to, had become unstable. Being rewritten
by a force not of that time, but by something that belonged in this time.
"I.. I don't know."
"Well, fix it. You're the time specialist."
She shook her head, as she was trying to see if there was someway to.
But she couldn't lock it down. The disturbance was so big. <So much change.
Too much!>
"Setsuna?" He stared at her wondering why she hadn't responded.
She suddenly broke down to her knees crying.
Joer, surprised and fearful, bent down infront to her. "Setsuna? Are
you in pain again?"
She shook her head again, and he reached out to hug her. She felt
totally helpless. A feeling she had few times before. "I can't.. I can't.
There's something really wrong, Joer." she cried remembering what she saw.
The images weren't clear yet so disturbing. The world was in chaos, but it
was peaceful. A world without the Queen; but then again, with two?
He held her, whispering, "Setsuna, it's OK. We'll fix it together,
just tell me how I can help. Setsuna.."
Getting hold of herself, she sobbed, then pushed him back. "I don't
know if there is a way."
"Destiny always finds the way." Joer said, reminding her of her quote
to him. A warm smile spread over his face.
She returned the smile, and wiped her face. "I'm sorry. I'm better
now." She got up and turned away. "Joer, time is really messed up. I can't
explain it any better. All I can say is we have to somehow fix the damage."
"I'll help you with all I have," he responded supportingly.
She looked back to him," I know you will." In awe, her eyes widened
again, seeing her true fear.
Joer promptly looked behind him and saw a whirlpool. It started
eating up space around like a black hole, pure black in the center and matter
spinning around it. "What the hell is that?"
"It's the paradox shift." she replied shakily. Setsuna knew she should
have been expecting it. Her first sign was the pain. Then the visions of the
past, how they were so chaotic, was her second.
"Paradox shift!" He knew what that was. A while ago, he and Setsuna
had
a discussion about changing the past. She had said that minor changes would
fix
themselves, and major changes would either rewrite the future or be one of the
infinite consequences. But a change that would cause a paradox shift had to
be
something galatically important. Then again, knowing it had to do something
with the SailorSenshi, he shouldn't have been surprised. The result of a
paradox, in turn, was the destruction of the universe, or maybe just the
galaxy. Still he knew that was very very very bad.
"I can't stop it. All I can do is slow it down, by continuing to stop
time like this."
His face brightened like the light bulb in his head. "I know,_I'LL_fix
it! You have to stay here right? Well then, I'll go to the past and.."
"No you won't. I can't allow you.."
"Why not?" he interrupted her in return.
She couldn't think of a reason, other then fearing for his safety. She
couldn't say that though, because all he had to do would be to order her to
do it. Setsuna knew such an answer would only lead to him feeling as if their
safety was more important than his. She just slumped and muttered, "OK, go."
A second later, a time portal opened next to him.
Even though he had some doubts about this mission, and himself, he
wouldn't show it to Setsuna. Continuing with his cheeriness, he gave her a
big smooch on the lips. Pulling away, he smiled, looking at her surprised
face. "Thank you. I'll fix everything, Setsuna, you just wait. And hey,
while I'm in the past, I'll pick up something to eat. Once I fix time,
we'll start from when you stopped it right? (she nodded) Then we'll have
won the war. We'll celebrate, and I'll bring some champagne and some.."
he started trailing off as he entered the portal.
She smiled, his cheerfulness had spread to her somehow.
Then his head pop back out. "Hey what time am I going back to anyways?
Setsuna blinked in surprise. "Ah, around the time Small Lady went to."
"Cool!" His head went back in. Then popped back out seconds later.
"What kind of champagne do you like?"
Setsuna smiled. "Anything."
He sighed then disappeared. Then reappeared. "Got any money?"
She laughed. "NO!"
"Doooh!" His head went back in. Then popped back out. "Got a jacket.
It's cooooold in here!" he added a little shiver to his voice.
Smiling she, pushed his head in. "Go already, you silly baby. Don't
you want to go?"
His head immediately popped back out. "I just wanted to see you
happy before I left. Bye-bye, Setsuna."
Setsuna half expected him to pop out again. But this time he didn't.
Slowly, her cheeriness subsided and reality faced her. All she could do
now was watch THAT grow larger as it demolished everything. And pray that
the man she loved could save the universe.

Chapter 2: Curiosities 2 : Answers Yet More Questions
(Also known as NA episode 60: A Curried Flavor)
(Chapter break, I get to rant a little.)
Yes I changed the title, I found too many "Revelations" out there.
So what going on huh? I'm as confused as you. Not! I just don't want
to spoil it. But you do know that the next chapter will be ALL about
the continuation of Curiosities (for god sakes, it says it right there
9 lines above!)
I have to apologize for some of the gramatical mistakes (not to
mention the puncuation, HEY! It'''s not mY, fualt. oK!.! ^_-, well
some of it is.) I just have a sucky word processor. (It thinks
I like those smart quotes, and smart appostrophies, too!) So
forgive my puctuation. AND HEY IF SOMEONE HAS HEARD FROM PAGAN!!!
HEY MAN, WHERE ARE YOU!?! I want to thank you for the corrections
on Curiosities! I just lost your email adress.
BTW: Feel free to spell check this baby for me! (wink wink)
Well, I kept the hentai scene.. teehee. Hey, it was pretty cool! Don't
ask about what happened at the end of their manage et trois, though.
I also rearranged the order of one scene. Does anyone feel like
something doesn't flow?
Hmmm.. let see what else, what else.. uh. Oh yeah! My Japanese
extends from undestanding .25% of Sailor Moon Japanese version
to fighting games. So all the move Joer does that have Japanese
probably don't make sense, sorry.
So there isn't much left to say, except I hoped you enjoyed the
story as much as I did writing it. (Man, that Sailor Mars
and Serenity scene near the end was riviting.. goose bump city
baby!) You know I did.
One last thing, excuse my name switching. Sometimes I write the
Japanese name (or misspell some of the bad guys names especially
Esmeraud, Esmaraude, errhh what ever her name is!) Hey it's hard
working on two fics, since one use NA and the other uses JP.

SMU:Bizarre Love Triangle 1 Chapter 2. Answers Yet More Questions.
(Remember, my thoughts and side comments like the characters actions are
enclosed in these parentasees)
<Charactor thoughts are enclosed in these>
(Summer 1995 AD)
Sunlight poring through the blinds and the birds chirping outside
made her aware that it was morning. <Already?!> Of course that wasn't
enough to wake her.. A knee into her side was. "Oww.." Leda winced, rubbing
her side. Sitting up slowly she found the energy to open her eyes. This
time though, she wasn't surprised to find another girl in bed with her.
In fact, there were four other girls with her but she remembered last night,
and didn't feel guilty about it. Un-like the first time with Mina, that was
a total shock. Luckily things worked out and she later found that she had
no reason to feel guilty. Every feeling was mutual between them. Of course
it was only fine to the five of them. What would everyone else think? She
sighed, knowing they'd have a big discussion about that, this morning. But
before that, breakfast had to be made.
Getting off the bed, she got dressed then pinched Raye on the arm for
kneeing her, and also to wake her up.
"Mmm.. uh.. Leda?"
"It's morning, wake up. I'm gonna make breakfast."
"Uhh.. I'll wake up when you finish." Raye moved over, put her
arm over Serena then fell back to sleep.
Leda shrugged, "Oh well," then smiled seeing how Mina was buried under
Serena's leg and arm and Amy's arm and leg. <That doesn't look too
comfortable.> She walked around the bed, moved limbs off Mina, then shook her.
"Mina.. wake up."
Her eyes fluttered open and she smiled. "Good morning, Leda." Then
with a look of surprise, she looked down at her feet. "I.. I can't feel my
legs!"
Leda laughed!
Then Mina managed to wiggle her toes.
"Amy and Serena had you pretty covered. They must of cut off the
circulation to your legs."
Mina sighed, "Jeez, that scared me." She then reached up for Leda.
Helping her up, and out of bed, Leda put her down, and immediately
Mina jumped up into her arms again.
"EEE.. it's those ants. Awwweee.. EEEE." she screeched, feeling
strange
tingly sensations crawling up her legs (You know! Haven't you ever slept
on your arm or something. I hate that!)
Leda chuckled and held Mina up. "How long till they go away?"
Mina stopped screeching and smiled at her playfully. "Oh I don't
know. It might take a while." She then snuggled up into Leda's arms.
Leda just sighed. <If she only knew how heavy she is...>
"I like this, I may NEVER want to be put down."
"What?!"
"Just kidding," she replied giggling.
Leda put her down, then tried not to look as she dressed.
Mina quickly got her clothes on and said, "You don't have to look
away, you know."
"I know.. but I'm not use to this yet.. it's .."
Mina walked to her and interrupted her with a kiss.(Isn't it great
that
anime charactors don't have to worry about morning breath?!)
At first, Leda felt nervous, but she began to get comfortable.
Parting, Mina replied, "You want to get to use to that, don't you?"
"Of course," Leda responded smirking.
"Good.. (grumbling sound).. oops." Mina looked down and rubbed her
stomach. "Excuse me."
Leda laughed. "Come on, lets get breakfast ready before Serena
wakes up. If I know Serena, her stomach grumbling won't be that cute."
Mina blushed, and followed Leda to the kitchen. There, she watched
Leda preparing breakfast. Basically, Mina shrugged a lot, everytime Leda
asked her if she knew how to cook something, or prepare something.
Leda frowned. She was pretty much done with preparing breakfast,
and without any help from Mina.
"Are you mad?"
"Why, no. Ah.. could you set the table?"
Mina grinned. "Hey, that I can do."
"I was just a little surprised.. how .. umm <how to put this nicely?>
umm.. how challenged you are in the arts of culinary preparation."
"What?"
"How.. how food making deprived you are.."
"Huh.. Leda?.. Don't talk like Amy."
<I guess I can't put this nicely.> "How bad you are at cooking."
Finished setting the table, Mina frowned at Leda. "Well, I'm not
bad at cooking.. I think. I just don't know how to cook anything."
"That's true." Leda replied, then began cutting carrots for the
salad. "Hey, how'bout I teach you."
"Yeah, that'd be great! We can begin by me, showing you, that I
can atleast cut carrots."
Leda finished cutting. "Nah, we don't want to cut up those nice
fingers, do we?"
"Well, no but.. what, you don't think I can?"
"I didn't say that. I just don't want to take a chance. Those
fingers are very special." Leda gave her a wicked smile, then went back to
preparing breakfast.
"Hmphh, OK, since I think your putting it that way. But I will
show you, Mina Aino can cut carrots! When should we begin my cooking
lessons then?"
Leda tossed the salad, then put the bowl on the table. "I'm free
all day."
"Yea! So I'll go home right after breakfast then. Then I'll be
back here in a few hours, after I show my parents that I'm still a live.
I'll bring some groceries too. Then we'll have most of the day for you
to teach me."
Leda teasing, responded, "Knowing you, it'll probably take that
long."
Mina scowled.
"Just kidding. Besides, it's far less tiring then you staying
here all day and us.. uh, you know.. all day."
She sneered, "Hey that's not a bad idea either. We can do that
in-between lessons."
Leda laughed, then jumped at the sound of..
Raye voiced. "Hey guys, what's the buzz?"
Leda turned around, calming she said, "Jeez, you scared me Raye."
"Sorry, is it my hair or something?" she asked, while furiously
brushing her hair.
"No," Mina responded for Leda, " she's just a bit jumpy and cautious
about.. about.. me and her."
"I'm not." Leda denied, lying.
"Sure."
"Don't worry, I'd behave the same way. I know I can't act the way I
like with Serena, with people around." Raye said, trying to support Leda.
"It'd freak them out. (Shaking her head, and looking up at the ceiling)
Who would of thought, such a beautiful girl like me ending up in a
weird relationship, with other girls..."
Mina rolled her eyes.(Quietly) "Whatever.."
Leda just smiled.
"SO!" Raye barged in-between them. "What's cooking?"
"Lots," Leda said and listed the pancakes, eggs, bacon, muffins,
French toast, and salad she'd prepared for breakfast.
"Wow, you might delay Serena's next pig out till noon."
"HEY I HEARD THAT!" Serena, who happened to be having trouble
finding something, shouted from Leda's room.
Leda moved to the table, setting the last of the breakfast
she'd prepared. "So, I take it, you woke up when you smelled the food.
I know how you like to pig out yourself, Raye."
"No," Raye said defensively. "Actually Serena woke me up when
her arm went over my face and nearly suffocated me."
"I said I was sorry." Serena walked into the kitchen. Amy was
behind her, looking awfully cheerful. When Serena caught sight of all
the food her eyes went wide and she immediately sat herself in a seat
and started reaching for the food.
Raye, not wanting Serena to take all the food for herself,
sat next to her and started grabbing stuff too.
Mina did the same.
By the time Leda and Amy sat down, all that was left on the table
besides what was on Raye, Mina, and Serena's plate was the salad.
"Jee, thanks for saving some for us," Leda said
Raye, Mina, and Serena stopped stuffing their faces and looked
up at Leda. They stayed like that for a few seconds. Finally
Serena (who actually didn't have most of the food, Raye did) pushed her
plate to Leda. Leda blinked but took it anyways. She slightly regretted
it when she saw what was on it. There was syrup on the toast, on the
pancake, but it got bad when it was on the bacon and the eggs. Actually
the plate looked like a mush of syrup.
"Umm, thanks Serena." Leda looked at her, pretending to be
appreciative. Amy started for the salad bowl.
Raye and Mina just shrugged and went back to stuffing their faces.
"Oh great!" Serena voiced. She was actually hoping her gesture
would embarrass the other girls into give up their food, therefore letting
her keep her own. But it back fired. "Raye?!"
Leda chuckled; Amy politely giggled (uh, tell me how anyone can
giggle and be polite? Well, there's Ami-chan for you.)
Raye, stopped, laughed lightly to herself (she knew what Serena was
trying to do); then wiggled her chair closer to Serena. "Here, " Raye
managed to say with food in her mouth. "I'll share with you." She brought
her fork with a large chunk of pancake on it to Serena's mouth. " Now
say ahhh."
Serena, a surprised for a second, smiled then took a bite.
"Weird, them getting along." Mina commented, with her plate
nearly cleared. "I hope we see this more often."
"I wouldn't bet on it," Leda replied.
"You're darn right," Raye responded, still feeding Serena.
"So don't go thinking that I'll baby you around like this all the
time, Serena."
"Wh..why not?" Serena blurted out in-between chews.
"Cause.. it wouldn't look right." She again, put her fork infront
of Serena's mouth.
Serena, feeling bewildered and slightly disturbed, pushed Raye's
hand down slowly. "Why? I thought that you said it didn't matter what
other people thought?"
"I thought we discussed this last night?" Raye responded. "We
weren't going to act intimate when we're with others."
"No." Mina stated, backing Serena's feelings. "We didn't decide
anything."
"Well, " Leda fell into the conversation, " I kinda like Raye's
idea. Keeping this amongst us could be alot wiser and safer."
"But that's lying! Why can't we just act how we feel?" Mina
argued.
"Yeah, I'd hate hiding how I care for you, Raye."
"Serena," Raye pleaded. "Come on, it's not like that really."
"Then how is it, really?"
"It's just so dangerous," Raye replied not knowing how else she
could explain her worries any better.
"I guess we won't be able to decide on this.." Leda mumbled.
Mina moved her gaze to Amy. "Amy, you're the one without a
say yet. Tell us, what do you think we should do?"
Suddenly, all eyes focused on Amy. She dropped the carrot stick she
was nibbling on and started reddening. "Umm well.." She had been listening
intently but she herself was hesitant to decide.
"So," Raye urged. "What will it be?"
"I.. OK. I don't think this is something that can be controlled by
a decision. It's how you feel about it. Each one of you have the right
to act as if you love some one or not. You can't force it or stop it."
Everyone blinked in surprise including Amy, at how quick and logical her
explanation was, but doubt was still etched on Leda and Raye's face.
"For example Raye," Amy said, looking at her, " if Serena came up to
you and decide to kiss you in the middle of the street, could you stop her?"
"Uhh, jee, no. But I'd be mad."
"Would you stop loving her?"
"No!"
"That's my point. She'll be able to do that all the time, and
eventually you'd get use to it."
Raye slumped. <She's right.>
"Well said." Mina smiled triumphantly. "So, I think we made our
decision here."
Leda, looking thoughtful, asked, "But how would YOU act, Amy? Would
you, per se, kiss one of us in public?"
Amy closed her eyes, and admitted, "I.. wouldn't."
"Amy!?!" Mina voiced.
"It's just not safe, Mina." she responded.
"But I thought you said.."
"My point was that I don't believe a decision will suppress how
you want to act."
Raye then said, "Well, we'll HAVE to decide. And since three out
five of use say we won't, then we won't."
"I'm with Raye," Leda added.
Amy nodded.
Mina feeling agitated, responded, "Oh I don't BELIEVE THIS!"
"Mina.." Leda said in a pleading voice.
"Serena," Raye stared into her eyes. "You have to understand that
it's not that I'm ashamed. I want to love you. I want to be able to show
everyone my affections for you.. but I just don't want you to get into
trouble."
Raye's reasoning put a reluctant OK on the tip of her tongue. She
looked away, and tore herself inside out from thinking about it. <I
want this relationship. I want her. But if I have to hide everything.
Hide her. Hide my love. And keep it secret, like if it was something
wrong. I don't know. I don't want it to feel wrong...>
Raye waited, and so did the others for her reply. She didn't
for a while. "Please..?" Genuine caring emerged from Raye's voice.
That did it. "Ohh kay, I guess." Serena didn't feel that it
was, but she knew Raye would be forcing herself to hide her passion
too. That she would be able to share with her, and make it feel right.
"Serena.." Mina said losing hope.
Slowly, everyone ended up staring at her.
"Mina, we need you to go along with this." Leda gave Mina the
same look that Raye gave Serena. Except with Leda, Mina didn't need
anymore convincing.
"Yeah yeah. I'll go along."
Leda smiled wide. She had no idea how she would have convinced Mina
to do so, except to tell her that her dad would've locked her up in her room
away from her if they found out. Ofcourse, Leda knew how Mina would reply.
She'd simply say that she'd run away and live with her. Not that living
with Mina would be bad. Just exhausting. "Great!"
Mina crossed her arms. "But I'm not promising that I'll be able
to stop myself all the time from giving you guys a hug.. (grinning wickedly
at Amy, who sat across from her) or a little feeling up."
Amy gulped, feeling Mina's foot riding up her leg, going in-between
her thighs. "Mina.." Amy squeaked, blushing.
Leda slapped Mina's leg quickly. "I'll be there to stop you though,"
she said playfully.
"Hmm.. we'll see," she smiled back.
All that thinking and deciding made Serena alittle anxious and
thirsty. "I'm gonna get a drink, OK, Leda?" She got up, as Leda scratched her
temple wondering how she could forget to prepare drinks.
"Wait, I'll get it." Leda offered.
"No no, I'll get it."
Leda blinked, then looked curiously at Serena back. Something was
stuck
on. "Umm.. Serena, what's that, on your back?"
"What?" asked Serena as she backed away from the refrigerator, caring
a milk carton. "On my back?"
Everyone took a look. Raye quickly chuckled, and light sense of
hilarity could be seen on the other girls faces.
Serena blushed. "What is it?!" Then tried to reach for it herself, but
was unable to do so.
"Come here meatball head." Raye called.
Serena stepped to her and turned around. Raye smiled while ripping a
panty off the back of her dress. Raye held it up to Serena and asked. "Forget
to wear something?"
Serena sweated, and then stared at Amy.
Amy smiled innocently.
"Oh, don't do that. I know you saw it. Why didn't you tell me?!"
"Heehee," Amy snickered lightly.
Leda was surprised. "Amy, that's not like you. Are you feeling that
thing again?"
She quickly stopped snickering and checked herself. "No.. I don't
think so."
Leda sighed, "Good," got up and got some glasses for everyone.
Serena put her glass and the milk carton down, and quickly put
on her panty (Serena's wearing a skirt, so it isn't to difficult).
Raye watched the whole time, enjoyment clearly visible on her face.
"I had no idea you were walking around with out underwear on.. I could
have done something fun with you."
"Raye.." Serena blushed, then sat down slowly.
Mina rested her elbows on the table, and her chin on her palms.
"When did you start hearing that voice, Amy?"
"I.. it started after I saw Serena and Raye.. but I started feeling
it around last night in the restaurant, I believe.
"What'd it feel like?" Mina asked.
"I guess, curiosity.. a strange version. Like, hmmm.. like hunger, for
for a certain type of knowledge. Well not knowledge but for.. a feeling." This
was a rare time for Amy, not being able to verbalize her thoughts.
But Mina knew what she meant. "I felt it too, last night," she
admitted. "I had that feeling before, though. Way before."
"Same for me." Leda added.
Raye guessed it was her turn to share. "I'm not sure. I mean, isn't
it
normal? Isn't it hormonal? We are teenagers going through puberty."
"Yeah but, it's kinda spooky too." Leda replied. "All of us feeling it
last night, for eachother. I mean even before that orgy Mina thought was nice
to try."
"Well, wasn't it?" Mina replied.
Leda shrugged but smirked.
"Maybe it was something we ate." Serena said.
"An aphrodisiac, in the food???" Mina suggested.
"Hmmm." Amy quickly popped out that handy mini-supercomputer, and
pressed a couple of buttons. "I don't think so. No traces of any influential
chemicals in our bodies. A normal aphrodisiac would cause a modulation in
estrogen levels.. and (Amy stopped herself from giving an explanation in
medical terms before she received the weird looks she normally got from doing
so).. umm, no, there was no aphrodisiac."
"I know!" Raye's lightbulb shined. "That juice Serena drank, could
that have had something in it that affected us?"
"No, I checked that too, just now. It's composition was water, green
food coloring, salt, and citric acid.. uh.. orange juice (I'm tell'ya, it was
ecto-cooler! You know the green Hi-Ci:)). Nothing special."
Raye felt disappointed. "Oh."
"I care to think of it as something special," Serena responded, then
took Raye's hand into hers. "It brought us together, even though it was
just to the bathroom."
That lightened Raye's mood.
Just before Amy put her computer back to that storage realm of hers,
Mina spoke up. "Hey, while that's out Amy, check on yourself. I might have
lied about how only guys can de-virginize girls. In your case, the hand, oops,
I mean the help Serena (Mina stared wickedly at Serena) gave you might have
done something."
Amy's eyes bugged out, just realizing that. She hurriedly opened
her computer, and typed rapidly. A few moments with anxiety present to a
certain degree, the highest in Serena, in each girl they waited for Amy to
finish her examination. Amy finally slumped down in her chair and sighed
relieved. "Still there."
"Oh thank god. " Serena sighed along with her. "I would've really
felt bad if I took something so precious away from you, Amy."
Raye clutched Serena's hand, to help comfort her.
A small smile escaped Amy's lips. "Oh, I wouldn't have really
minded if it was any of you that took it away."
They all smiled back, except for Leda. Her mind was filled with
wonder about Mina's condition.
Serena, finished feeling relieved, quickly gave Mina an evil glare.
Mina just smiled back, and played a little footsy with her.
Gathering enough courage, Leda began, "Umm.. Amy?" She continued
quietly. "Can you check Mina?"
Mina was shocked. "Leda?" And pulled her leg out from in-between
Serena's thighs.
Serena felt a little disappointed.
Leda gave her a reassuring smile. "It's not that I think you've
been with a guy. I'm just worried about how I treated you last night."
"Ohh.. nah." Mina replied. "Trust me Leda, you didn't de-virginize
me."
"She's right," Amy said, finishing her analysis. "And so no-one has
to ask again, all of us are still virgins."
"Mina, how'd you know?" Leda asked her quietly.
She winked. "I've used bigger things."
"Mina!" Leda responded in a strained, trying to be quiet, loud
whisper.
Puzzled, Raye looked to Amy. "OK, now I'm confused. Unless sex ed's
really messed up (yes they have sex ed in Catholic Schools!), aren't hymen's
really easy to tear?"
"I understand how you feel, Raye. It's very strange, but maybe since
we're Sailor Scouts, we have different physical attributes. It could be that
our hymens are stronger or built differently."
Serena, Raye, Mina and Leda thought <Ick!>. And looked it.
"I'll have to do experiments on it.. I mean do an analysis, uh take
data."
Serena, Raye, and Leda thought <Ick!>. And again, looked it.
But Mina didn't. "Experiments!?!" Mina voiced. " What kind of
experiments?"
Amy grinned impishly. "I'm glad you asked. I was hoping for
volunteers.
I can't just study myself, I need a partner.. err, ah a control I mean, for
comparison. I'm warning you guys though, if you volunteer, it will involve
ehem.. eh, hmm... sex."
"Yes!" Mina quickly raised her hand. "I'll do it!"
"I wasn't finish, explaining." Amy answered the over eager girl.
"What else is there to explain, if it has sex and you, I'm in, umm
so to speak."
Amy blinked a few times. "I was just going to say, it'll have to be
tonight before my mother comes back from America. Atleast I hope she won't be
home tonight."
"That's fine with me. Come on guys," Mina urged. "It's for a good
purpose.. uhh, exactly what will this experiment be about, Amy?"
Amy had that impish grin again. "Sailor Anatomy research," she made
up.
"Yeah right." Serena's voice was full of sarcasm. "But I'll go for it
anyways. Come on Raye."
Raye put down her glass of milk. "How could I say no?"
"Well, Leda?" Mina pressured.
"Umm.. I'm thinking. Duh.. ofcourse."
"Great! Heh-heh" Mina's mind started to fill with very dirty ideas,
"heh-heh", and the other stared at her."Heh-heh." She drueled.
"Mina, you OK?" Raye questioned.
She blinked, "Oh fine, thankyou." Then she smiled at Raye, remembering
what she wanted to ask before. "Tell me something Raye, what happened in the
restaurant last night.. actually to be more precise, the bathroom?"
"In the bathroom, at the restaurant?" Raye gulped, trying to delay
an answer. "Why, was something wrong with the bathroom?"
"Oh don't give me that." Mina replied.
Leda continued, "Amy said she heard funny noises in there."
"Correct," Amy agreed.
"Well, uhh.." Raye stuttered. She looked to Serena for support, and
in turn, Serena smiled back reassuringly. "Oh OK, I guess.. but you guys are
gonna have to confess about what happened here last night in return, OK?"
Mina frowned, then quickly nodded. "I was going to tell'ya anyways,
but I agree."
"Good." Raye said, then bit her lip, reluctant.
"So, tell us already." Leda begged.
"How'bout you tell'em, Serena," Raye suggested. "I'm too embarrassed."
"Oh this has to be something wicked then. Raye embarrassed, that's a
first." Mina smirked.
"Oh, yeah well.. (turning to look at Serena) so, you wanna tell it?"
"OK. WELL, let's see.. when we were cleaning up, Raye jumped me and
forced
me to.."
"HEY! That's not how it went."
"I know." Serena smiled broadly.
Raye sarcastically replied, "Funny." Then sighed. "OK, since I don't
want you guys to hear a totally demented perspective of "The Bathroom
Incident", I'll tell you." She paused for a second, thinking. "Well, when we
were cleaning up, Serena and I were talking about her and Darien, and that
juice. I really can't explain it, all I remember was us talking and suddenly
I had the courage
to make a move. (Looking towards Serena) I really had the hots for you for
the longest time Serena. I just couldn't.. couldn't act upon them. I sorta
pushed you away by fighting with you all the time. I didn't want to. I'm
sorry."
"It's OK." Silenced followed, while Serena and Raye stared at the
other passionately.
Mina impatiently tapped the table. "OK, this Kodak moments getting
a little TOO long. Come on Raye, go on already."
Raye shook her head, and gazed at Mina. "Oh, sorry. Umm.. OK, well
umm.." and Raye spoke away, describing in great detail what had occurred.
Serena helped along with bits. "..so me and Serena were getting really into
it when all of a sudden (pointing at Amy) miss polite over there knocks on
the door scaring the crap out of both of us. So we stopped."
Mina finding Raye's words strangely fitting, laughed and promptly
coughed up bits of the broccoli she was nibbling on. "Erh, arh, e-heh..
hahaha!"
"Mina, it wasn't that funny." Leda gawked at her.
"Hahahaha!"
"OK.." Raye looked at her funny.
"Hahahaha.. crap.. hahahha in the bathroom.. bwhahah. haha..."
And they waited till the giggles were out of Mina's system. "So, you
through now?" Raye asked.
Mina holding her stomach, nodded. "Wow, that was nice. I needed that.
OK OK go on."
"What do you mean go on, that's all." Raye responded.
Mina gave her a look. "Yeah right, you guys went to your house and did
something. Come on spill it."
"What? Hey we agreed upon me telling you what happened in the
bathroom.
I did, now it's your turn to spill it." Raye responded, with annoyance in her
voice. She didn't want them to know about that bondage stuff.
"Oh Raye," Serena said calmly. "It wouldn't hurt."
"Yeah Raye," Leda urged. "I really have to know about this bondage
stuff."
Raye cringed.
"Bondage?!" Mina went wild. "Hahaha.."
Raye sunk in her chair.
"Hahaha.."
Leda, Amy, and Serena giggled along more so from Mina's funny sounding
laugh, rather than at Raye. Still, it hurt. "Hey! It's not funny."
Mina stopped suddenly. "Oopsie hehe sorry.. So?"
"NO!" She wasn't going to tell her now, after she laughed at her.
Serena thought otherwise. "Raye.. honey."
Raye looked at her in the corner of her eye. "What?"
Serena gulped, she knew Raye was in a foul mood. "Come on.."
Raye exploded. "Fine Serena, go a head! I don't care that you talk
about our love life like.. like it means nothing to you." Raye then crossed
her arms, hmmphed, and turned away from her.
"I guess they still have their problems.." Leda whispered to Mina.
Mina felt bad. "Umm.. I guess we can forget it.."
Knowing what to do, Serena shook her head at Mina and winked. "Raye.."
Raye moved a little away.
Serena's hand touched the small of her back, and started riding up
to her waist. "Dear.." She suddenly jerked Raye into her grasp hard.
Raye gasped.
Amy, Leda and Mina, found that amusing.
"Look," Serena whispered hard into her ear. "I know you like this."
Serena's hands grabbed her sides painfully.
Raye yelped.
"And if we tell them about it, don't you think they might enjoy doing
this to you?"
Raye was strangely interested in the idea.
"And its not like I'm telling the world, Raye. They are part of
our love life."
Raye nodded, and Serena let go of her harsh grip.
"Good."
Needless to say, Leda, Amy and Mina still found this amusing.
"Eh-hem.." Serena was in the middle of their stares. "Raye will
be glad to tell you what happened now." Serena motioned to Raye.
Reluctantly, she began, how they had this little episode outside
the temple. Amy confirmed this, which surprised Raye and Serena. Then
She went on and told about her dirty manga collection, which Leda raved
about. The way she begged Raye to let her come over and borrow some
made it obvious she was really interested. Mina asked too. Amy would
have, then she thought why should she read about it when she could do
it.
"How many again?" Leda asked.
"Ten, twenty.. I don't know?" Raye replied.
"Wow!" Leda looked at her in awe.
"Why? How many do you wanna borrow?"
Leda gleamed, "As many as possible!"
Raye felt an opportunity arising. "Uh-uh, just one."
"Huh?.." Leda heart sank.
"More if you can get me a .. toy faster." Raye grinned.
Leda jumped out of her seat, ran to the phone and dialed. "Hey
Casandra?.. Yeah it's me Leda... Heehee.. yeah I really really liked it..
Could you add another order into my account, express delivery.. no no..
not for me.. yes very close.. so am I .. OK.. thanks." She hung up
and returned to the table.
Mina glared at her. "Casandra?"
"Just someone I met."
Mina continued to glare at her.
"Not like that.. she's straight."
Mina sighed.
Leda smiled, "So how many can I borrow now?"
Raye thought. "I guess as many as you can carry home."
Leda grinned wide.
"So come on Raye." Mina started. "Let's get back to you and Serena."
"Oh, ok.. So Serena found them right and.. " Raye told them which
manga Serena had found. Mina suppressed another surge of laughter. Then
she explained how Serena had tied her up and how they went at it in that
bondage style.
"Oh my god," Leda whispered. "You really like that being done to
you, Raye?"
Raye looked embarrassed.
Leda smiled, "That's great because I have a few more things in
my collection.. chains.. whips.. handcuffs."
Mina blinked. "You have that kind of stuff?"
"Ahh.. well, see.. umm.. it came together with the vibrator."
"YES!" Raye stood up from her chair.
"What are you so happy about?" Serena asked.
"We get our own whips and stuff Serena," Raye responded giddily.
Leda raised an eyebrow. "Well.. I don't think it'll come in the
package I'll give you."
Raye felt like she'd just been stabbed. "WHAT!"
"The bondage stuff was my present as a first time buyer."
"Ohh.." Raye sat down, depressed.
"But you can have that stuff Raye. I don't think I'm much into the
rough sex."
Amy sat chewing on her finger nail. Last night she had hesitated and
not joined them. Had she, last night's events wouldn't have been so
difficult.
Gathering courage she coughed. "Eh-hem.. umm.. Raye?"
"Yeah.."
"Tonight, do.. do you mind if.. if I tie you up and.."
Raye's eyes grew wider for every word she spoke finally scaring
Amy into stopping.
"No not at all.." Raye replied.
"Really?"
Raye nodded.
Amy sighed, <Maybe there is something to this speaking out..>
"Amy?" Serena wondered. "Last night, when you were watching us, why
didn't you say anything? You know we wouldn't have minded."
Amy blinked, Serena seemed to have read her thoughts. "I don't know,
I guess it's just the way I am."
"Well, we're gonna have to improve that."
Mina said softly. "When ever you need something Amy, remember, we're
all best friends. You can trust us with anything. We'll never ignore you."
Amy gave her a curious glare.
"Except for last night." Mina knew why she was staring at her like
that. "I really had to look for Leda."
Raye grinned. "Good, now we can talk about what happened between
you and Leda last night."
"I was just about to get to that." Mina began. "OK," her voice was
excited. "So me and Leda were heading back here after dinner for some
chocolate
cake when..." From this point, Leda took over, which surprised Mina, but she
went along anyways. It was good that she did because they found out about her
boyfriend, Freddy.
"Gods, he was so mean." Raye was astonished.
"Well, I can't really blame him. I mean, he hurt me, but I think I can
understand."
"How?"
"It's.. it's like if you woke up one day and Serena told you she was
straight and didn't want to be with you anymore."
Raye gulped. "Ohhh.." She slowly looked over to Serena.
Serena looked back, but there was no look of worry, just a warm smile.
Raye felt better, but knew she'd have to ask her later.
"I mean, I might of acted the same."
"No way, not you Leda." Mina couldn't believe it.
"I don't know.. if you played around with my feelings like I did to
him,
I would have.."
"You didn't play around.. you were."
"Yes I was.. I was protecting myself.. I was really ashamed of
myself."
"Leda..." Mina knew words weren't the right way to comfort her.
Instead
she brought Leda's head to her chest.
"That's why, last night.. I," Leda felt tears rolling, but she knew
she shouldn't stop. Now was the time when she could get rid of all those
skeletons in her closet. " left you. After our first, Mina. I felt soo bad.
I thought I was playing around with your feelings."
"Oh Leda..."
Serena's eyes watered, and she whispered, "It's so soap opera like.."
Raye sweated. "It's just like you to ruin a moment like that."
"Did I say that out loud???"
"Mm-hmm."
Serena hung her head. "Sorry."
Pulling away, Leda surprisingly chuckled. "Hehheh.. No, I think our
situation's more like a dirty anime movie." She wiped her eyes.
The other girls giggled along.
"Yeah," Mina agreed. "Or like some hentai manga."
Leda chuckled again. "You know what, last night was really really
amazing. I mean, I couldn't really think of how to put this before,
but.. but it was just like you said Mina, it was like some kind of kinky
story."
Amy blinked. "Hmm, on the internet, there's stories about anime's
that are written by regular people who do it just for fun. They post them
on pages and newgroups for others to enjoy. What are they called again..
Oh yes, fanfics. Some of them get really perverted and graphic, they're
titled lemons. I came across one, about the Dirty Pair and how they were
both lesbian."
"What kind of pervert would write something like that?" Raye
asked. "They're definitely straight."
"Yeah, and anyone would probably think we were all straight too,
huh?" Mina replied.
"That's what I thought till last night." Leda went. "I mean, imagine
finding out four of your best friends are sexual attracted to you, what are
the chances unless???"
"What are you saying? Like we're in some kind of dirty fanfic or
something?" Mina replied sarcastically.
Everyone else felt rather strange. And looked ...
(SirAnie moves away from his computer. He waits patiently until his
brain works normally again.)
Raye's eyes wander around, then she shrugs. "No.. this is real, guys."
"Oh I know that," Leda said back. "But I just can't help thinking
how weird last night was."
"Just consider it as a blessing," Mina replied.
"OK can we get back to you two now?" Raye asked impatiently.
"Oh yeah.. well, after Leda broke down, I turned into Sailor Venus
and.." the story went on (come on read Curiosities already, you KNOW you want
to). Mina told them what had occurred, and there eyes widened, as Mina told
them every little bit to the most graphic level. "And finally, we orgasmed..
oh jeez, just thinking of it makes me.. oh Leda.."
She gulped. "Hold your hormones girl..."
"I can't help it, I'm gonna take you!!!" Mina jumped off her seat,
tackling Leda off hers. Amy, Raye, and Serena watched as the two played kinky
roll around on the kitchen floor for a few seconds.
Leda felt Mina's hands groping her more sensitive parts. "Hehheh,
Mina.. Mina.. oh that .. oh!!!"
Ding dong.
Serena looked around. "Was that the door bell?"
"Door bell?!" Leda sat up quickly, throwing Mina off her.
"Hey!" Mina winced, rubbing her backside.
"Oh sorry."
Ding dong.
Raye nodded. "Yup, door bell. Kinda stops the fun huh?"
Leda got up and ran to the door. She opened it, and Serena frowned
at the voice.
"Hi, Leda. So where's that ditz?" Reeny called.
"Oh.. that little brat.. errh.." she muttered. Serena got up and
made her way to the door. "What do you want?"
"Your parents want you to come home already. It's almost 10."
"It is?" She looked around, finding the wall clock she confirmed
it. "It is."
"Yeah meat ball head. Now get your stuff and lets get moving."
Serena turned to look at the others, sitting at the table. <Oh
I'm gonna miss all the fun and errhh because oooo.. you little errh!>
She went back to looking down at the pink haired devil. "Fine, just
wait!" She slammed the door in her face.
"Hey!" Reeny yelled through the door.
"That was rather rude," Leda commented.
"Nah." Serena went to the table, she leaned on a chair and
asked. "So when can we come over, Amy?"
"Umm.. late afternoon, by then I'll be sure my mom won't be
home."
"OK." She kissed Raye on the cheek then started to go.
Raye stood up, "Yeah I think I should go too. I have tons of
chores to do before gramps comes home tonight.. so I'll see you guys
later and we'll finish our conversation Mina. Come on Serena, I'll
walk with you."
"Really? Cool, OK."
"Yes," Amy went after them. "I think I'll have to go now as well.
It's late, and besides, I think I left my door open."
"You did?" Raye asked.
Amy nodded.
"Hey!? Why you guys abandoning us so early?" Mina felt something
was wrong.
Raye answered sarcastically. "We don't really wanna stick around with
you horny. You'll probably rape us to death." She smiled, then patted Leda
on the shoulder. "Good luck Leda."
"Hey! I'm not that horny!" Mina retorted.
Serena opened the door.
"What's horny mean?"
Amy and Raye, behind Serena, face faulted. "Nothing you little brat,
lets go."
Reeny hmphed then started. They followed.
Amy stared curiously at the Luna Ball and finally wondered <What
levitates that object?>
Leda sighed, and closed the door.
"So, it's just you and me, dear."
Leda gulped. "Umm.. you know, it is rather late."
"Late, it's 10 am in the morning."
"I mean, aren't you worried about your parents?"
She rolled her eyes. "Yeah, yeah. OK, fine I'll go home now, but I'm
telling you, you're missing out."
Leda came to her. "We can catch up after lunch right? We can't have
you miss your cooking lessons because your parents are mad?"
Mina leaned in close grinning. "Mmm, you're right. So, I'll just
leave you with a kiss."
(Mwhahahah!!! Done done done, can I say that one more time? Yes I'm done
with that dialog! The longest I believe in any fanfic. It's almost actually
in real time. Well, actually, this scene was longer, I cut down the parts
which were explainable by reading SMU:Curiosites. Hell, if you haven't
read it yet, read it. I have to apologize for my mistake pertaining Amy
Mizuno's home. She actually lives in an apartment, a nice one at
that, instead of a single family home that I indicated in SMU:Curiosites.
I'll fix this oversight somehow in the future.. Now back to BLT.)
***
Birdie sat in the control console chair of the spaceship Rubeus,
named appropriately for it's captain. At the moment she was the only person
on the bridge, stuck on helms duty for the whole day. And as usual, it
was boring. Not much was floating around Earth's orbit, well not so much
that the internal computer navigation systems couldn't handle them.
So she sat leisurely, doing her nails.
<Why am I stuck on duty while Prizma and Avery get to have fun
down there? Not fair..>
*(At that grocery store.)
Looking bored, Prizma pickup the purple fruit and stared at it.
Avery, looking equally bored, sighed, then picked up the fruit
and thought if she sliced it up, and put it on her face, would it be
better than lemons.
The droid smiled at everyone. It scared most of the buyers away.
*
She started filing her nails hard. <I hate this, it's soooo boring.
Nothing happens out here anyways.> Her nail broke. "Oh no.. WAHHHH!!!"
Something similar to a radar screen on the console started to
display a blinking dot nearly at the center, that slowly got bigger.
"Not fair!! WAAHHH!!!"
Then the room turned red.
She stopped abruptly. "Huh?!"
The computers voice, which happened to sound very female and
very sensual, warned, "Objecting entering field space. Warning,
possible collision."
"Huh?!" She started fumbling with the controls. She didn't
help.
"Performing preprogrammed evasive maneuvers." The ship shook
violently.
Birdie screamed!
Then everything was still.
She sighed. Soon she noticed that something huge was blocking
the view of earth. The sphere was all dark.
"Beep.. beep."
Birdie looked around the console then found the beeping
communications button. She pressed it, and a face appeared on the screen.
"What were you thinking!!! You almost hit us!!!" Prince Demand
screamed.
Birdie face faulted.. "Ummm.. umm.. sorry sir I.. you were cloaked
or something and and our sensors didn't pick you up."
He calmed, then nodded. "Hmm.. forgiven."
Then she realized. "My Prince, you're here! In the past."
His evilly broad grin spread over his face. "Indeed."
***
His hands frozen, he forced his fingers to clutch the handle and
open the door. He was blinded by the pure white light on the other end, but
he continued to go forth.
Suddenly Joer found himself lying on an ally floor, looking up
at the newly lit sky. He wearily got up and looked. It was just becoming
morning here, and in his view was old Tokyo Tower. The place where he had
arrived was the same location he had left over a thousand years ago in
the future.
"Woho!! I made it!! I made it!!" He smiled, now everything was
a lot warmer. His body not as frozen as before, Joer got up then walked onto
the concrete field which Tokyo Tower stood in the middle of. He spun around
slowly, taking the sites and relishing it. Unfortunately, his condition
caught up with him, and a powerful headache hit. He winced and kneeled.
His brain worked fast recognizing the symptom.. or rather symptoms.
It was Chrono Lag Syndrome (sorta like Jet Lag, but a lot lot lot worse.)
Knowing he had to find them, he somehow made it to a phone booth and looked
for her name in that nice big book.
<Errhh.. owwww... Amy.. Amy? Amy what!?? Damn brain.. owww...
Mizuno!!! That's it!> After fumbling with the pages, he found it.. actually
five Mizuno's. <Shit!!!.. I'll have to guess. I don't remember where, damn
stupid brain! Owwww...> But then he remembered her old phone number and
matched
it to a single Dr. Keiko Mizuno. He memorized the address and stumbled out
of the booth.
The pain in his head got worse as he continued, but he suppressed it
as best as he could by holding his head and messaging his temples. Joer knew
he couldn't just lie down on the street. Around him, business men and women
walking the streets of Tokyo stared at the strange gaijin as he passed them.
None seemed to want to help him, they just stared at him strangely. Except
for one female.
"Excuse me mista?.."
He stopped to answer the cute red hared girl. She looked familiar.
"You need help? You look like you're about to keel ova."
Recognizing that New Yalk accent, he asked, "Molly?"
She looked at him surprised. "You know me mista?"
He blinked. "Oh no uh.. I.. my niece, going to visit Serena Tsukino
I.. errhhh." The pain pulsed hard.
Molly helped him straighten. "Your niece? Oh you must be.."
The pain was becoming unbearable. "Excuse me, I.. I need to go." He
started walking away.
She grabbed his arm. "Hey mista, you don't look so good, and I don't
think you'll make it walkin'. She lives all the way in Azubu. You'll need
a taxi." She put her pinking and pointer finger in her mouth and whistled.
That sound was rather painful, and he hung his head. Soon a taxi
came.
She opened the door for him and helped him in.
"Thank you.. I don't have any money though and.."
She smiled, "Oh don't worry mista?.."
"Joer Tsuki.. no"
She smiled, "I got it." She looked at the taxi driver. "Take
him to 296 Tranquil Road, Azubu district." She dug into her purse and
gave him some money. "This is'll cova it."
Joer smiled warmly at the girl. "Thank you again, I don't how
to.. you're very trusting."
She gleamed. "I know a good person when I see one." The taxi moved
away, with her still looking at it as it drove off.
He knew his condition needed to be treated, and Serena wouldn't
understand how to yet. So he said to the driver. "Driver, would you go to
101 Ichiban Road, Juuban district, instead?"
"Sure buddy."
He sighed, relieved. Soon, he became tired, really tired, since
the ride was very long. His eye lids felt very heavy and they fell.
The next thing he knew the driver was shaking him. "Hey mister,
we're here."
Joer nodded and stepped out of the taxi. He looked around wearily
and sited her house. In a stupor, he walked to the door. He rang the bell,
but no one answered. The pain, and his need for sleep overcoming him,
he fell over, pushing the door open and landing with a harsh thump.
Snoring, his unconscious body lay in the entrance hallway of Amy Mizuno's
home.
(I have no idea what Amy's mother's name is so I made it up. I also don't
know that exact address where the any of the Sailors live so I'm making
those up too ^o^.)
***
"I do not!" Serena screeched.
"Sure.. you know that's why Darien left you." Reeny retorted walking
ahead of her. They had been arguing about how much Serena ate.
Serena hmphed, and put her hands on her hips. "Well, I don't care
for him anymore anyways."
Reeny turned around and stopped. "Yeah right meatball head."
She looked down at the munchkin. "Well, I don't."
Reeny went back to walking. "That's what you say now, but the
next time you see him, you'll start chasing him again."
"I will not!" Serena screeched.
"MM-hmm, sure."
Serena was fuming, the little brat really got on her nerves. "For
your information I have some one else now!"
Next to her, Raye turned blue. She thought quickly and pinched
Serena's
arm.
"Owww.." Serena whispered, then looked questioning at Raye.
Raye looked sternly at her.
"Who?" Reeny stopped and turned around again.
Serena and Raye both looked down at her. Serena put her hand behind
her head. "Uh-haha, umm," then she grinned mischievously, "at school, this guy
named Ray. Yeah, that's it."
Raye face faulted.
Amy giggled behind her.
It sounded so fake to Reeny, and she brushed her off. "Sure meatball
head." Then continued on her way.
Raye gave Serena that stern look again.
Trying to look innocent, Serena just smiled and shrugged.
Amy realized something. "Um.. I just missed my street. You too Raye."
"We did?" Raye looked around. "Doh.. I gotta go Serena." She started
to walk away with Amy.
"Wait!" Serena called after them. "Tonight right?" She winked.
Amy smiled back, and nodded.
Raye and her waved goodbye and went off.
Serena turned back around, and suddenly had the pink hared devil's
ball floating in her face. "ACK!"
"What's tonight?"
Annoyed, Serena replied. "None of your business."
"Well, you're going to have to take me. Mom says you shouldn't leave
me alone." She looked arrogant, and pleased.
"I won't!"
"We'll see what Mom has to say."
Reeny and Serena continued on their ways.
<Yeah we'll see all right.. we'll see, you little brat..>
At home, Serena went to her room to take a little nap before lunch.
On the shelves behind her bed was a picture of her and Darien at the park
the day Reeny had fallen out of the sky. She made a face.
"No need for that." She took out his picture and stuffed it in the
bottom of a her drawer, then began searching for a picture of Raye. She
found none. <Jee, I'm gonna have to ask her for one.> Well she finally
settled on a picture of all her friends. It was a very cute one, Raye was
behind her holding her hair up. (It's at my site right now.)
Luna came in the room, catching Serena kissing the frame. "What
are you doing?"
Serena gasped lightly. "Luna! Hi." Serena put the frame on the
shelf, then laid down on her bed and closed her eyes, ignoring her
question.
Luna hopped on to the bed. "Where were you all night?"
Serena opened an eye. "I was at Leda's, sleeping over."
"I know that.. I was wondering why."
Serena opened the other eye and stared deeply into Luna's
eyes. Then she remembered what they had decided, turned over and
closed her eyes. "Just having a sleep over."
"Why was it so spontaneous? You guys usually plan something like
that days ahead."
"Well, we felt like doing something different, OK?"
"Well tell me then; what happened in the sleep over?" Her
motive in asking was more for the purpose of conversation, rather than
interrogation. (Luna does like to talk to Serena about girl things too
you know.) "Serena?"
Serena felt otherwise. "Look, Luna, I'm sleepy. I'm going to take
a nap before lunch, OK?"
"A nap!"
Too late Serena was already snoring.
Luna sighed, disappointed. <Well, she's got the right idea. Such a
hot day like this, how can anyone stay awake?> She lied down next to Serena
and began to doze off. The last thing she saw before her eyes closed was
the picture frame Serena had kissed earlier. The picture wasn't of Darien
anymore. <That's strange....(dozing off) A mouse.. Artemis! Get it, I hate
mice... I.. my hero... Artemis..>
Serena sweated with fear, but soon calmed noticing Luna falling
a sleep. She quit her fake snoring then thought, <This is gonna be tough
keeping it secret from Luna. Man.. (yawn) I.. can I.. mmmmm.. crepes..
Raye, can you buy me crepes? Thank you, oh it taste so good (Raye voice
over) "So do you.." Oh Raye...> She smiled in her sleep.
***
Amy stood afraid to touch the unconscious.. female? No it was
a man with beautiful long hair. She stepped around him.
But his hand grabbed her ankle.
"EYA!!"
He let go of her ankle. "Amy.. help."
She stopped screaming, and moved back a little ways. "Who are you?"
Then she noticed his features. Ghastly pale, dark eyed, and perspiring
profusely. He was also wearing a shirt too small for him.
<Oh great.. now I don't know if I should tell them.. if I do
wouldn't it cause some type of casualty loop.. errhh I hate chrono
physics!> He stared blankly at her for a second, the replied, lying.
"I don't remember."
She came closer, her aiding nature was forcing her too. "Are you
OK?"
He shook his head. "I'm very ill. That's why I came to see you."
She felt his forehead, and was shocked to find that he was freezing,
not hot. "Oh my, I don't know if.." <Wait, Amy what are you doing, you
don't even know if he's evil.> She got up and headed for the phone. "I'll
call an ambulance for.."
"But you're the only one that can help me... you will know what
to.."
She dialed. "Yes could.."
"Please Sailor Mercury."
She stopped suddenly. ".... ummm, never mind, sorry." She hung up
the phone and stared at him, confused. Finally she asked. "Excuse me?"
"I know who you are.. please don't call anyone. You're the only one
who can help."
She continued to stare at him questioningly.
He knew she was worrying. "I'm a friend, believe me."
For some reason she felt she had to. "OK.. then what do you want
me to do?"
***
Serena rolled ontop of Luna. "Umm.. hmmm.. hmmm.. heehee."
Startled, Luna woke up. "Serena! Get off me!"
Serena made a kissy face.
"MEOW!" She slashed Serena's nose, a little.
"OAWWCH!" Serena got up and grabbed her nose. "Luna, what was that
for?"
"Serena, you were having.. a romantic dream."
"I was?"
"Yes. And I bet it's about Darien again."
Serena rolled her eyes. "No Luna, I don't think so."
"What?"
"I'm over him.. (stomach growl) ooh, I need lunch!" She jumped off
her bed and ran down stairs.
"Over him? Hmm..." She looked at the picture.
* (You probably watched Curried Flavor already. Well, I suggest you watch
it again while reading the rest of the fanfic.)
"Hey mom, is lunch ready yet?" Serena called out, she walked into
the living room. Her parents were sitting on the coach while Reeny and
Sammy stood, looking troubled. "Oh.. hmm.. what's wrong? You all look
so serious."
"Well, we have a little problem." Mr. Tsukino replied
Mrs. Tsukino looked to her daughter. "Serena, maybe you could help
us."
"Hmm?"
"Well, we were going to go to a curry cooking party at Reeny's
school tomorrow. All the parents and kids are going to cook different
kinds of curry together."
Mr. Tsukino continued. "But now this business dinner came up so
we can't make it."
Serena's face brightened. "So now you guys want master chef Serena
to take your place and do all the cooking instead, right?"
Reeny immediately interjected. "NO WAY! I'd rather go all by myself
'cause she'll wreck everything!"
"OH YEAH! Well, I'd rather wrestle an alligator, than help an
ungrateful fungus like you! Hmph!" Serena stormed off to her room.
"Serena!" Her mom called out.
(Lines taken directly for the North American Version of episode 66 (60 NA)
Actually, the anime and the NA don't make sense 'cause Serena actually says
"is dinner ready." Strange since there's sunlight outside. I admit, there's a
night scene which features Reeny crying but let's just say that happened the
night before. OK? From this point on.. it'll be getting more and more
different.)
*
Serena sat on her bed and slumped. <Hey wait! Why'd I come back up
here, I was suppose to eat?>
"Serena," Luna said. "That's was very harsh of you."
She felt that wasn't fair. "That's because Reeny's a rotten spore!"
"No she's not... She may act spoiled but remember, she a little girl
who's far from home, she doesn't have someone like you. She's bound to slip
up."
Serena felt a little bad now. Partially because her stomach grumbled.
"Hmm.. you do have a point. I'm gonna go eat now." She headed back downstairs.
Luna felt disappointed. She had forgotten to ask about what
"over him" meant.
There she heard Reeny preparing rice by herself, and saying to
herself
that she could do it by herself. Then she heard her begin to cry; it made her
feel sorry for the little bunny hared girl. She came out from behind the door
way. "Reeny.."
"Huh?" She had rice all over her face.
In a warm tone, she asked. "What are you trying to do here?"
Reeny went back to spoiled mode. "I don't need your help, Serena.
I can make the curry all by myself."
Putting up some patients, she suggested. "Reeny why don't we get
Darien, I bet he could help you."
"Huh?"
"We can go to his place and ask him to help us. Is that a good idea
or what?"
"He won't want to," she said small voiced.
"Fine.. but if you don't want to come with me and see Darien, I guess
I'll just have to go all by myself"
Reeny eyed her. "Hmm.. you're just using me as an excuse to go over
there."
She smiled, thinking, <He's always got food.> "Exactly."
They got there in five minutes.
***
There first encounter was more than an hour ago. Now he had just
fallen
asleep on her couch, being cured, or healed, or treated. She really didn't
know
for sure which one. But in that span of sixty minutes or so; she had learned
SO
many things her mini-super computer could do. Besides it's normal functions
as
a censoring device, it could manipulate objects as well, and most forms of
energy. She also found out his problem and how to cure it. Simple really,
re-stabilizing quarks in his atoms which had fluctuations do to miniature
space-time pockets. He called it Chrono Lag Syndrome, and said it wasn't
terminal. He also had explained that it's caused when an object's not
shielded
during transfer. But what kind of transfer, from where to where or... Now her
mind raced with many questions. <Transfer, through time? Maybe he's from the
same place as the evil sisters? Maybe he's from where Reeny came from?> She
sat worrying, and wondering what he meant by telling no one else. She could
no
longer abide by his plea. Amy took out her communicator.
***
Ding dong.
Leda sitting lazily on her couch was surprised to hear that.
She quickly changed channels from the public access channels cooking lesson
show to the news. It would be a shame for anyone to know she watched such a
lame show, but she enjoyed it not for the recipes but rather for the ditzy
cute blonde girl who was doing the cooking. She quickly got up and tried to
open the door. The knob fell off.
Ding dong.
"Leda!" Mina shouted which muffled through the door.
"Mina? Uh.. wait a second." She looked for something to pry the
thing open with. "Ha!" she had a pen in her pocket which she used to
stick into the hole where the door knob was and pulled it open.
Mina was smiling, with bags in her hand.
Leda stared at her, holding the pen up.
"Is that suppose to mean something perverted?"
Leda blinked. "What? Uh.. NO! I just used it to open the
door.. God Raye really did a number on it.. Here let me help (grabbed
some of the bags from Mina).. You're here so early, I thought you
were coming back after lunch?"
They made there way to the kitchen. "Yeah well, I had to lose Artemis
somehow, so I came home then told may parents that I was doing cooking
lessons,
before he was awake."
"He's not awake yet?"
"Nope, lazey cat huh?"
Looking embarrassed, Leda said. "Yeah.. umm.. I haven't made lunch
yet,
I've been cleaning."
"Don't worry, brought some." She held up two happy meals.
"Ooo, did you get the prizes?"
Mina nodded, then took out SD Sailor Moon figurines.
"Oh wow, they are SOOO cute." Leda came over, she had ones of Jupiter
and Venus.
Mina handed her the Sailor Venus figurine. "So you carry it around,
and never forget me."
"I wouldn't even if I didn't have this," she leaned in close for
a kiss.
Beep.
<Doh!> Mina took out her communicator, mean while, Leda missed and
fell flat on her face. "Bonjour, une belle femme parlest."
Amy had this troubled look. "What, Venus?"
"Hi there Amy, what's wrong?"
Amy bit her lip for a second, then started whispering quickly. "Um..
there's a situation at my house. I don't want to stay on too long, because..
umm... please could you come over?"
"Yeah sure.. is it really serious?"
"I.. I don't know."
"Hey! Can we have our cooking lesson there?"
"I guess.. I have to go." There was a sound of a man grunting, then
the screen went blank.
Leda got up rubbing her nose. "What was that about?"
"I don't know, but I'm guessing we're moving are cooking lesson to
Amy's house."
"I.." She wanted to fix the door, but the bolt lock was still working
so she said, "OK."
Mina grabbed their things. "Come on, we'll eat on the way."
***
He turned over making Amy sit on the edge of her seat. He began
snoring
again.
"Phew.."
*** (Darien's place.
Darien turned over onto his stomach, causing him pain. His physical
attribute was giving him a hard and difficult time. He rolled on his back
again, now eyes open looking at the ceiling.
The night before should have been a good night. It was the first
night
off he had in weeks and he was planning to go out. Maybe to a club with Andrew
to get his mind off Serena. But it wasn't a good night. It started to
turn sour when he met Amy on the street then followed her to Raye's temple.
There's where he learned the truth. The feelings Serena and Raye had. <God,
why couldn't I see it? Raye wasn't jealous because Serena was going out
with me. She was jealous because I was taking Serena out.> He walked home
wearily last night and when he was inside, he cried. His love was lost.
But in some ways, he felt it was better. Those nightmares had stopped.
The ones that told him to stay away from Serena. It made him feel that she
was a lot safer. So that night he fell asleep without that dream which would
bother him in the morning.
Ironically, a new not so horrible, but more sadistic dream took it's
place. A wet dream. Now he couldn't take his mind of the idea of two gorgeous
teenagers getting at it. Before, he had thought of them as little girls,
who happened to have spectacular figures (he convinces himself well, OK?) but
NOW, he had to admit they were hot. He shut his eyes tightly, knowing he
couldn't take another cold shower, it'd just make him touch himself more.
Then again, that thing was hurting under his pajamas and he did need to
sleep
because he had the late shift tonight. So he was left with only one option to
take care of it. He reached for some tissues.(Ewww.)
His hand was reaching down his pants when..
Ding Dong.
"Errhh.." he got up and made his way to his door, slowly. His pal
was still painfully up. Opening the door only a little bit, he saw
Serena's face.
"Oh! Hello.."
<Oh shit...> He knew he couldn't let her in. If he had, he wouldn't
have been able to control himself. "Serena.. I can't let you in." (Notice
Darien's voice in the NA version.. heehee.) He began to shut the door.
"Nononono.. just wait.. I'll be quick hehe.."
"I was taking a nap," he lied.
"Darien?" The little squirt stuck her head in. "I need your help bad."
That was a major turnoff. "Reeny. Oh, so you're here too. OK."
With her around, he knew he didn't have to worry about raping Serena.
*
After having lunch there, Serena sat at Darien's uh.. coffee table and
asked, "So Darien, know anything about cooking curry, 'cause Reeny would sure
like for you to go to her curry cooking party at school tomorrow."
"But I can't.. see I have to work tomorrow."
"Oh pleaseee.. Darien..."
"It's OK," Reeny interjected. "I'm sorry Darien.. I know your
busy, everyone is." Sounding dismal, she added. "I'll just go by myself
and maybe one of the families would give me some of there's."
Darien felt sorry for her. "Maybe I could work the late shift
instead." <AGAIN.> "But Reeny, I don't know the first thing about cooking
curry."
"Ha! Serena says she knows all about it."
For some reason Darien doubted that.. and also imagined little
penguins flying around.
"But I don't believer her," Reeny added.
Serena frowned. "Thanks very much.. Just wait, I'll make the best
curry you'd ever tasted. Just leave it in the capable hands of this master
curry chef"
Darien groaned. "I'd like to try some first."
"Eh-heh.. yeah.. umm good idea."
"You don't want to embarrasses Reeny tomorrow."
Serena hung her head. "Oohhh.. heehee.."
"Let's go then!" Reeny was hyped. "To the store and get ingredients."
Serena immediately waved her hands. "Umm.. nonono.. we don't have
to yet.. See I have something important to do and umm... It'll give you a
chance to take a nap, Darien."
"No, it's OK, now'll be fine."
"NO! Really.. I need to do something.. umm.. seeya.." she got up
and was out the door before Darien could say anything else.
He shrugged. "Well, Reeny. I'm going to take a nap. You can watch
TV if you like."
She grinned. "OK.. And thanks Darien."
"No (yawn) problem."
*
Out of Darien's appartment, Serena immediately took out her
communicator.
*
On the bus to Amy's house, Leda and Mina gave eachother a look
when one of their communicators started beeping. They both shrugged
and carefully, stuck their hands in their respected bags. A trick they
learned to conceal the sudden appearance of the communicator from passer
byres. Leda found out it was hers.
Checking if anyone was looking first, she carefully pressed the answer
button. Serena's face popped up.
"Hey Leda! I need your help bad! Reeny's got this curry party tomorrow
and I HAVE to cook for her."
Forgetting to be careful, Mina stuck her head in the way. "You,
cook!?
Hahahaha.. you're probably worse than me."
Serena made a face. "Thanks."
Leda pushed Mina's head out of the way of her view. She smiled. "Look
Serena, we're going to Amy's house to do cooking lesson. You should come too,
curry was on the list."
Serena's eyes brightened. "Really?! Leda you're a life safer. How can
I ever thank you?"
Mina stuck her head in the way again. "You could keep your strength
up till later tonight." She winked.
Serena grinned.
Leda pushed her head out of the way. "Oh would you stop that.. Now,
Serena, anything else?"
Serena shook her head. "I'll seeya guys there, byeee.."
Blip.
Mina got off Leda's lap and sighed. "Guess my cooking lesson won't be
as private as I thought..."
Leda rolled her eyes. "Yeah right..." Then someone tapped her
shoulder.
"Dude man.. umm miss. That's a kick ass calul lay lay tor. Where'd
you get cool shit like that?"
Leda looked surprised at the punk rocker with a mohawk. She didn't
think anyone noticed. "Umm..."
Mina grabbed her arm. "It's our stop.. let's go!"
They got off the bus quickly.
*
Amy happily opened the door. She was relieved that she wasn't alone
with a strange man sleeping on her coach, anymore. "Hi."
"Hi!" Mina gave her a big smooch, then stepped inside.
Amy blushed. "Umm. thanks."
Leda shook her head at nobody.
"So, let's get cooking!" Mina started to walk into the kitchen. Amy
grabbed her and dragged her back in.
"Shh.. there's someone sleeping on the coach." She pointed.
"Who?" Mina and Leda whispered back.
Amy shrugged.
"Amy? You're letting someone sleep on your coach, and you don't know
who it is?" Mina looked at her worried.
"Well.. see, he knows that I'm Sailor Mercury."
"He does!?"
Leda cracked her knuckles. "Well, then we'll take of him."
"Nonono.. he's OK, I think. I believe he's got amnesia, that's why he
couldn't tell me who he is. Please don't wake him. I think he needs
sleep to recover."
"Recover?" Mina asked. "You mean he was hurt when you found him?"
"Yes, he was suffering from a condition he called chrono lag syndrome.
I was able to treat him, but I don't know his full condition."
"Amy?" Leda stared at her. "How do you know this guy's not an enemy?
If he is, helping him's a big mistake."
Amy shook her head. "Leda.. he doesn't seem to be bad.. and.."
"How do you know?"
"Because.. I scanned him and there are no signs of Negaverse
energy. He is just a regular human."
Leda opened her mouth, then shut it. Thinking for a second,
she finally said, "OK, Amy, I trust you.. but the next time some strange
guy comes in your house saying he needs help, then goes and tells you
he KNOWS who you are, call us before you help him, you got that?"
Amy nodding, smiled.
Suspicious, Mina put her hands on her hip. "I don't know about
you Leda, but I'm still rather worried. To me, this sounds rather fishy.
I mean, he knows you're Sailor Mercury, but has amnesia? What's with that,
huh?"
Amy tilted her head slightly. "Hmm.. didn't think of that."
"Well." Mina's voice was stern. "I guess we should check him out then,
see if he is from the Negaverse or something."
"But.."
"Don't worry, we'll be quiet."
The three went tip toeing into Amy's living room. They heard him
snoring loudly. Mina giggled. They got infront of the couch, Mina and
Leda disappointed not being able to see his face. The man's front was to
the back of the couch.
Mina and Leda studied him for a while, then both shrugged.
"Hmmm.." Mina began. "I don't feel anything bad about him..
you sure it's a him?" She asked noticing the hair.
"Yes."
"OK, I guess we're safe.. besides, Leda can take him down anyways
right?"
The edge of Leda's mouth curled. "I'm sure I could."
Mina smiled. "So, I guess we can start my cooking lessons.. and oh."
She scratched her head. "Heh-heh Amy, you don't mind if Serena comes over too?
She said she had to cook for Reeny at a curry party, so she needs to learn
how to cook it."
Amy sighed. She was hoping not to have Serena over. Not because
she didn't want Serena over herself. But she knew how loud Serena could
get and.. "I guess."
Ding dong. (Damn, lots of door bells in this chapter ^_^)
Amy blinked. "She's quick." She got to the door and opened. No
one was there. "Hello?"
"Amy!" Artemis voiced from the ground.
Amy looked down surprised. "OH, Artemis!"
Luna popped out from behind him. "You know were Serena is?"
"And Mina?" Artemis finished.
"Mina's here, and Serena's coming over."
Artemis grinned. "Oh good, mind if we come in?" They entered before
she could even think about saying no.
"Artemis!" Mina was quite surprised seeing him.
"Where have you been, young lady?"
***
Raye slapped her hands clean, then sighed as she put her hands on
her hips. "All done. Wow!" She had finished all her chores pretty quickly.
Skipping lunch was the key. She smirked. <Must be because I want to see
Serena before tonight. Heehee, maybe we could practice before we go
to Amy's house.>
After showering, and dressing up (mind you, the clothes she had
in this episode were really cute:) ), she found her communicator and called
Serena.
"Yes.. Hi Raye!"
"Hi Serena.. I finished my chores early. Wanna do something?"
Raye smiled evilly.
Serena giggled, then frowned. "Ah-man. See Raye, I gotta cook for
Reeny at a curry party at her school tomorrow. I was going to Amy's house
to get cooking lessons from Leda. So I can't till later."
Raye bummed for a moment, then her eyes brightened. "You think she'd
mind if I come over too? I do know a little about cooking curry." <From
a box, heehee.>
"Of course not, you know Amy. Come on over, I'll meet you there."
"Cool, OK I'll seeya there, meatball head. Love you."
"Bye hot stuff."
"Bye."
Blip.
Raye went to kitchen, and took out a ready to heat curry TV dinner.
***
At Amy's house, Serena and the rest of the girls started getting
ready for the cooking lesson, while the cats, sitting on the back of the
couch, hovered over the man, wondering who he was. Serena came over and
looked questioningly at Luna. Luna then looked questioningly at Artemis,
who looked questioningly at nobody. Then he shrugged, then Luna shrugged,
then Serena shrugged. So she went back to the dinning room where the others
were.
"Amy? You sure you don't know who the guy is?"
Amy was getting fed up with this question for everyone, especially
Luna, had asked it repeatedly. "No, Serena. I wish I could have asked him
more, so I could satisfy your curiosity as well as mine, but his condition
prevented me from doing so. So please, no one ask me who this guy is
anymore."
Mina gasped. "Amy! You're angry.. oh no." She went behind her and
started rubbing her shoulder. "Lille Amy need a hug." Her hand reached
around and embraced her. Slowly, she rocked her while standing.
Amy rolled her eyes, but felt better anyways.
Leda knew something was up with this.
Smirking, Mina cupped Amy's breast and started teasing them. "How's
this? Make you feel better?
Moaning, Amy closed her eyes, feeling the pleasure from her chest.
Leda quickly slapped Mina behind the head. "Would you quit that,
Luna and Artemis are here," she whispered.
Amy didn't appreciate Leda's actions too much, but kept quiet.
Mina frowned. "OK, sheesh.. You didn't have hit me though." She
held the back of head.
Leda sighed, took Mina's hands off her head, and started petting
her where she had hit her. "Sorry.. but Mina, you can't just start feeling
Amy up, or any of us for the matter, any time you want to," she whispered
back as she held Mina and continued to rub the spot she'd hit.
Mina leaned back on her. "I'll try." <Yeah, sure.. eeheehee.>
Serena just stared for a bit, then said. "So, when are we starting
the
cooking lesson? I really need to do this quick guys!"
Amy blinked, then smiled. "Well, I've got a cooking book here. I saw
a recipe for curry, right?"
"Yeah.. stupid me volunteered.. eheh-heh.. and now I HAVE to cook
for her."
"Well, it's really nice of you for doing so," Leda said.
"Too nice," Mina added. "I've seen her treat you like dirt. She's
a real spore you know."
"Mina?" Leda chuckled. "You've got something against the little kid?"
Mina just shrugged in her arms.
"But she just looked so sad about nobody helping her.. I just..
couldn't say no."
Mina shrugged again. "Well.. you're too nice anyways."
Amy opened her book and began reading around. Then she found one that
seemed to be pretty delectable and started to read the recipe out loud.
Serena, Mina and Leda, behind her, sweated.
Serena came up behind her. "Amy, I'm not gonna be able to memorize
it.
I need to be shown."
"Oh.." She closed the book, then went to the door after hearing the
bell.
"Heya Amy!" Raye stepped in.
"Raye! You're here too..."
Curious, she asked, "Why, Serena didn't tell you I was coming?"
"No."
"Eh-heh-heh.." someone laughed nervously.
Looking over Amy, Raye glared at Serena, who was hiding behind Amy.
"SERENA..."
"Shhhh!" Amy put a finger on her lips.
Raye looked bewildered. "What???"
Amy pointed at the couch, some one was sleeping there. "Who's she?"
Mina chuckled. "Not a she, Raye."
Raye tiptoed quietly over, seeing Luna and Artemis still looking
down at him curiously. "It's a man? Jee, with that hair?" She giggled.
It was too bad she couldn't see his face since he was sleeping with it
pressed against the back of the couch.
He stirred, then everyone shut their mouths. They all, for some
strange reason, were scared to move. Then he went back to snoring.
Everyone sighed.
Amy motioned for them to go to the kitchen. The girls quietly
walked there.
"Who's the.. mmmmfffp."
Serena covered Raye's mouth. "Amy's tired of hearing that question.
She
doesn't know." Serena took her hand off Raye's mouth.
"You didn't have to do that," Amy said. "He was ill when I found him.
I was able to treat him and he's resting. That's as much as I know about him."
<Well except for the technical details of his illness but no one would get
it anyways so I'll just..>
"That's not all though," Leda pointed out. "He knows Amy's Sailor
Mercury. And he might know who we are too."
Raye's eyes widened. "He does? Uh-oh."
"That's what I think too. Uh-oh!" Leda nodded, then asked. "Raye,
you feel anything bad from him?"
Raye thought for a moment, then shook her head. "He's OK. If
he was evil, I would have known instantly."
"See." Amy respond.
Leda shrugged. She didn't really want to say it, but she wasn't so
sure about that man on Amy's couch. "Well, if you guys say so."
"Can we get to cooking now?" Serena asked.
Leda blinked. "Oh yeah, sorry. So curry huh?"
Serena nodded.
Raye took out something from behind her back. "Surprise Serena.
This'll help bundles." It was the ready made curry in a box. "See." she
smiled wide.
The other girls sweated.
"Eh-heh," Leda giggled nervously. "Umm.. I think it'd be better
if we taught Serena how to cook real curry from scratch."
"Oh.." Raye puckered.
Leda, Mina, and Serena, the ones that needed cooking lessons went
into the kitchen. Raye and Amy went back to the living room to observe
the guest.
"OK, Amy was right, saying that spices are important to curry, but
it's not all that's important. First (taking out carrots and placing it
on the cutting board.) you've got to the prepare the vegetables. Mina..
could you put some water in the pot, and heat it?"
Mina complied, then went back behind Leda watching her chop
carrots. It looked easy enough, and fun too. Besides, she had said earlier
today she would do it. "Let Mina do it! Remember, you said to teach us. How
can we learn if you don't let me try?"
Leda scratched her head, then handed the knife to Mina, who took
it quite giddily. "Now don't cut yourself."
"Don't worry, Mina Aino is the chef Extraordinare." Then she began
cutting carrots with her fingers extended instead of how Leda was doing it.
Not only that, but she was also chopping wildly at the carrots.
Serena and Leda, behind her, looked very worried.
"See no pr... owch," Mina said in a tiny voice. She dropped the knife
and held her hand in pain.
Leda and Serena behind her, were stunned.
Mina couldn't feel it and whispered. "I cut my finger."
Seeing a piece that looked like the tip of a finger, Serena screamed
"Ahhh! She cut her finger off!"
Mina screamed with her. "Get an ambulance!"
Leda immediately started searching for the dismembered part, picking
up little carrot sticks and checking if they were actually fingers.
Amy, Raye, and Luna heard it and rushed in to the room. Artemis
new though.. and decided to continue looming over the guy. <He's got to be
really tired. Sleeping through that kind of screeching, amazing.>
Serena turned to them and screamed. "SHE NEEDS AN AMBULUNCE!
QUICK!"
Leda cleared all of the parts away then said. "No no, see."
She held up a carrot stick. "No finger here. Mina, check."
Mina hadn't done so, she had been holding her hand from view
so she wouldn't see the possible grotesque sight. Then she blinked
and sighed. Everyone looked over her shoulder at her finger. It was
only bleeding a little.
"Does it hurt?" Leda asked.
"Only a little.. sorry."
Everyone relieved, sighed.
Then Serena put her hands on her hips and said. "And you were
worried? Jeez, you get too excited."
"Ehhem," Luna coughed from below them. "Who's the one who was
screaming?"
Serena face faulted.

***
Having just been awaken by Birdie's call for him to get to the
bridge, Rubeus tightened the sash holding his robe, as he stepped on
to the bridge. He was greeted by a very surprising sight. "Wiseman,
Prince Demand, Saffir.. how may I bid this unexpected but very welcome
visit."
"Cut the crap, Rubeus," Demand replied angrily.
Rubeus bowed his head. "Forgive me, my Prince."
Demand groaned. "I'll get straight to the point Rubeus. I'm
taking over all operations now, here in the past. Is that understood?"
"Yes.. but may I ask what would make you come back here to
this primitive era? Is there something wrong in the future?"
Demand's groan was even more audible. "We lost in the future.
As far as we know, we're the only survivors. Eveyone from the future's gone,
thanks to Wiseman's blitz plan. HMMPH!" He turned away from them all,
angrily.
"HA! We don't know that. But still Demand doesn't understand that
this is the path which our ultimate destiny led us into. It is the true
way of us achieving our goal. To conquer Earth. The past is the key."
Demand stopped himself from turning around and quarreling with
him. He knew he needed Wiseman's powers to achieve his goals, and
arguing would not help in this matter. So he kept quiet for now,
but he'd change their partnership. He'd make sure he himself would
make the important decisions. <I'll just use him.. heh-heh.>. He turned
back around and glared at Rubeus. "So how are things doing here?"
Rubeus gulped. "Umm... there's been some set backs but
at this very moment, Prizma and Avery are in Tokyo implementing a
plan sure to give us a hand in getting control of Earth."
"Set backs?"
"Sailor Scouts, my Prince."
<Even in the past, they defy me! But no longer,> he thought, then
asked. "What is it they are doing on the surface, then?"
"Capturing a star point."
Demand, rubbed his chin, thinking for a moment. "Continue
with that plan. If it does fail, and I'm sure it will, we will forget
about capturing star points and concentrate on fixing the Death Sphere.
With the power that ship has, we'll be able to easily take Earth over."
"How much damage needs to be fixed? And how?"
Wiseman took over. "Much, but the Death Sphere has self regeneration.
All it requires is dark energy. We'll feed it energy that you capture."
Rubeus gulped again. He had the equipment to form dark energy from
human energy, but capturing it was another story. "How would we be able
to contain it?"
An awfully annoying laugh filled the room. Soon, Esmeraud
appeared from a ripple of darkness. "With my crystals ofcourse. Why,
my Prince, did you leave me alone in that desolate and cold ship?"
Having thought she had died, Demand sighed. <When will I ever be rid
of her?>
***
Amy, Leda, Raye, and Mina watched intently as Serena took the spoon
with sloppy looking curry into her mouth. She chewed for more than ten
seconds then swallowed. Serena smile widened slowly.
"No way!" Mina protested. "That stuff can't have tasted good.
It looks like crap." She quickly grabbed Serena's spoon from her hand
and took a spoon full into her mouth. Mina frowned. "Not fair! Why's
hers taste good? Mine's better looking."
Leda patted her shoulder." We'll keep working at it."
Raye smiled at Serena." Let me have a taste." She took one and
nodded. "Not bad meatball head."
Amy took one as well and nodded.
Very happy, Serena gave Leda a hug. "Oh Leda, thank you thank
you thank you."
"Hey, my pleasure."
"Hey girls!" Luna came into the kitchen. "He's awake!"
The girls quickly rushed to the living room
*
Joer stared uncomfortably at the girls standing far from him. They
continued to eye him intently. <Errh, great.. Why didn't I ask Setsuna
what I could say? Can I tell them why I'm here without letting out things
about the future? Would it be bad if I did? Jee.. they look so young.>
Each of the girls thought the same, <He looks like Reeny. He's gonna
blow the shirt up!>
He knew he had to do two things to accomplish his mission. One, get
their trust so he can help them fight the Black Moon Family. And second,
don't ruin the time line. Now could he do both? He finally settle on having
to tell them some truth. His mouth opened to begin.
But Serena blurted out, after not being able to stand the silence.
"Are you Reeny's father?"
He blinked. "Reeny?"
"Yeah, the pink hared little girl that fell out.. you don't know
her?"
Realizing who she meant, Joer shook his head. "No no.. I.. we don't
call her that back home. I know her, she's my niece." <Actually my grand
niece, but we're not gonna get technical here.>
Leda crossed her arms. <This guy seemed to know alot about his family
for someone with amnesia.>
Serena's face showed much interest. "Your niece?!"
"Yes.. "
"Hey!" Leda interrupted. "How come you know she's your niece when you
don't even know your own name."
"Umm... OK," he sighed. "Here's the story. Amy (he nodded at) I'm
sorry
that I had to lie to you, but I needed your help quickly. And by telling you
who I was, I knew it'd just slow things down, you would have asked me many
questions. See, I'm from the future."
"Future!?" All seven of them shouted simultaneously.
His reaction was to blink really fast for a few seconds. He finally
nodded. "Yes, from the future."
"Wow! You mean Reeny's from the future!" Serena sat next to him.
He smiled, glad to see her pleasant face. It had been a while since
he had seen her. "Yes."
Raye sat on the other side of him. "Meaning those weird sisters are
from the future too?"
He turned his head to her. "Weird sisters? Oh you mean the Black Moon
Sisters?"
"Uh.. yeah."
He nodded to himself. Now he knew which infantry had gone back in
time.
Rubeus's.
Skeptical, Leda voiced, "This is all nice and interesting, but do you
have any proof that you're from the future? We don't even know who you are..
your name and.."
"Prince Ailyees!" It had finally come back to him, after all that
vulturing over him, some more memories of the Silver Millennium.
Artemis hopped onto his lap. "Prince Ailyees, that's who he is."
Joer grinned.
Mina quickly grabbed him out of his lap. "Weird cat.. see he likes to
think he can talk, and sometimes.."
"Mina, shutup." Artemis wiggled out of his grasp and landed back on
his
lap. "This is Prince Ailyees guys! I was his cat on the Moon Kingdom."
"Woah, this is weird." Mina sat down on a recliner by the coach.
"Just call me Joer." Joer petted Artemis. "Hey buddy, can't forget
me huh?"
Artemis purred.
"OK, we've established his name, that's good," Leda continued in her
cynical tone. "But that doesn't say much about what he's doing here and why."
"Then if I could have everyone's attention, I'll explain the best as
I can." They all found a seat, except for Leda, who continued to stand, arms
crossed. "You guys have watched time traveling Sci-fi movies before right?
(They nodded) Well then you understand how bad things might be if I divulge
any information about the future. That's why I'm not going to be able to
tell you everything that I know, but you guys must trust me."
They all looked a little reluctant, especially Leda.
Noticing the atmosphere, Artemis commented, "I trust you."
Joer petted him. "Thanks bud.. I knew you would."
"OK," Serena said. "I'll go along."
The others slowly nodded along, even Leda.
He smiled. "Good."
"Can you atleast tell us your purpose here?" Leda asked.
"I was gettin' to that.. See the Black Moon Sister, errh who you call
the weird sister, belong to an alien race called the Black Moon Clan. They're
lead by a man named Prince Demand, head of the Black Moon Family, and a
wizard
calling himself Wiseman. Well to put it shortly, there's going to be a war
between us, and they went back in time to destroy us when we're.. errh
weaker."
"We? Who? And When's this war going to happen?" Raye wondered.
"Uh.. us, you guys and me.. and... I I can't answer the rest. Please
understand why."
Raye bit her lip then nodded.
"So you're here to stop them right? Like Reeny?" Amy questioned.
"Yes."
Serena shook her head. "Reeny's not here for that."
Everyone was surprised.
Serena looked around. "What? Didn't I ever tell you guys?"
"Tell us what, meatball head?" Raye inquired.
"Umm.. heehee.. I guess I didn't."
"Well, tell us then?"
"Oh, she wanted my crystal."
"Yes," Joer agreed. "She did, but things have changed. That's not what
we need to do anymore."
"Why?"
"Umm..." They looked at eachother for a long moment. "Can't.."
"No, I get it." Serena finally gave him a thumbs up. "OK, so you're
just here to send those guys back to the future right?"
He thought for a moment. Actually, he was planning to kill them all,
but sending them back to the future wasn't too far off, well from their view
it wouldn't be. He'd just push them into a dimension of death, and they
wouldn't even know it wasn't the future. So he nodded. "Yes. Um.. you guys
have anymore questions?"
They all thought to themselves about what they could ask, and what he
would answer. They couldn't think of any possible question at the moment.
So for a while, they all sat quietly until the girls shook their
heads. "OK, then we all understand eachother?"
They nodded.
"Good, because now I'm going to have to ask where I can stay?"
"You mean, live with one of us?" Mina asked.
"Uh, yeah, see.. umm... I don't have a place to stay while I'm here in
the past, and knowing the Black Moon Family, it'll be a while till we'll
defeat
them. "
"With me then." Leda replied, <This way I can keep an eye on him>.
Joer was surprised. "OK, thank you."
"Hmm."
Amy's grandfather clock rang five times. Serena got up. "Oh no, it's
five already! No way!"
"Yeah Serena, you and I did attempt to make four curries."
Serena stuck her tongue out at Mina. "Yeah but one of mine was good."
Mina made a face.
"Well, this was all fun and interesting, but I gotta go now, catcha
later.. BYE!" She was out the door with Luna chasing after her.
It took them a couple of seconds to explain to him why she had left
And then, for a time, they sat quietly again. Eventually, forcing himself to,
Joer was able to ask. "So, what's been going on? How have the battles against
the Sisters been?
Mina, Amy, Leda, and Raye groaned.
***
Serena knocked on Darien's apartment door. Soon he answered, wiping
his eyes.
"Hi Serena, come in."
She stepped inside. "Did I just wake you?"
"Uh-uh.. I usually wake up around this time for late shift." He
stretched and yawned.
She stared at his body. Even though it was attractive in a way,
he was really scrawny. <Well, lean's a better word... but he's like a
tooth pick compared to Joer.> She remembered the first time she really
got a good look at him. He looked like he's was about to burst from
the tunic he was wearing.
"Like something to eat.. drink?" He asked, stepping into the
kitchen.
"No.. no thanks... Umm.. I'm sorta in hurry to do this cooking.
Lot's of homework to do tonight, see. Um.. mind if we get going?"
Darien blinked. <She's lying, got to be doing something with Raye
tonight,> he thought dirtily. "Oh.. Ohh Kay.." He shouted into the living
room. "Reeny, let's go get the ingredients now."
Reeny came hopping into the kitchen. "Ready."
*
Serena was going over the ingredients that Leda told her to buy
out loud. She'd forgotten one and stalled. Then Reeny reminded her
that it was curry. Serena laughed nervously, while Reeny and Darien groaned.
The sun was setting, and Serena suddenly stopped laughing nervously.
"Look at the sunset!"
Darien and Reeny both noticed it and admired the large orange ball,
setting next to Tokyo Tower. Each felt better and warmer inside, seeing
that lovely sunset.
Reeny walked along and started to remember a time when she and her
parents were walking up to Crystal Tower as the sun was setting. Her eyes
closed, letting her mind wander back to that happy time. <Daddy.. Mommy.>
Unconsciously, she reached up and held Serena's hand.
Serena felt Reeny take her hand. She looked down at the little
girl and sighed. <Hmm.. Maybe Luna's right. Maybe under that bratty
exterior there's a nice little girl who's lost and lonely and just needs
reassurance.> (heehee, notice how Serena all of a sudden has a wider range
of vocabulary.. blame it on DiC)
Darien all of a sudden felt a connection. He looked over at the
girls and wondered what was making it all feel so right.
Reeny slowly came back to reality and realized Serena had her
hand. Not that it felt bad, but she didn't want that ditz to be holding
her. "Erh, Serena, don't hold my hand. You're not allowed."
<Then again, maybe not.> "You took my hand first, you ungrateful
little spore."
"Did not."
"Did to, did to.."
Darien held his head. <I should have known it wouldn't last.>
***
The whole day she'd been standing at this food stand, waiting for
someone to try her juicy dark fruit. No one had. That really pissed her
off. Not only that, the droid also had this horrible surfers accent while
it tried to convince people to try the dark fruit. Finally, Prizma stood
tall and shouted at the shoppers, "Step aside Avocado.. let me give it
a shot. Eh-hem! Once you taste our rare dark fruit, you won't be able to
stop yourself from eating and eating."
Let's just say, it wasn't a crowd pleaser.
Prizma angrily squashed the fruit in her hand.
Avery found her sisters harangue, brave but stupid. Gathering up
her will, she pushed her aside and stood up on to the stand. She posed
and showed off her figure. "Listen up folks, even though this fruits black
and ugly, it taste really good. Not only that, but it's healthy. That's
where I got my figure from. So come on over and try some of this fruit,
it's free just for today!"
Needless to say, it attracted the grocers.
She stepped down and helped the droid hand them to the shoppers.
Prizma whispered to her from behind. "Impressive, is that how
you deceive men?"
"No.. men love to kneel infront of a beautiful woman like me."
Sarcastically, she responded, "Your modesty's killing me."
As soon as the buyers took a taste, the energy they had turned into
dark energy, controlling them. It was only a matter of moments before all
of the shoppers were infected.
They smiled evilly. Now these people could use up there human energy
in permeating the store with dark energy.
The droid got up infront of the crowd and commanded the buyers, "All
right people, spread out through the store and touch everything you can.
I want this place reeking with dark energy."
Mindless, the shoppers did what they were told.
***
And by astounding cosmic coincidence, Serena, Reeny, and Darien
happened to end up at that very same store that the Black Moon Sisters were
at.
"I heard this place has the best produce in town." Serena commented
before entering. She stopped Luna and said to her, "Now Luna, you just
stay right here."
Luna meowed, "Why?"
"Because," she pointed at the a sign. "It says to leave pets outside,
and I guess that means you, Luna."
Luna meowed in an annoying tone.
***
"So basically, you guys have had a handful even though it's just one
sister and or droid?"
Raye, Amy, and Mina nodded reluctantly.
He sighed. Though the sisters were rumored to be good fighters, they
were no match for the senshi of the future. Even all four would be an easy
victory for one senshi. <Well, there's going to be lot of changes
between now and the future... They did go through Densetsu training.
I wonder if it'd be bad if I train them before I'm suppose to train them.
Yeah.... I think it would be.>
"Hmmph, I don't think that's the case." Leda interrupted his train
of thought. "I mean, if it was always an easy fight, then what kind of
day would it be? I would hate to have Sailor Moon just do her thing and
kill a droid in 10 seconds flat."
Joer thought that sounded pretty lame. But he kept it to himself.
Wanting to change directions of the subject slightly, he said. "Well, I'm
glad I came. With me around, you guys will have a better chance of winning
even if ALL the sisters fight you at the same time."
Raye said excitedly. "Why? Do you have some really cool powers?"
"Yeah, what kind of special attack can you do?" Mina said as eagerly
as Raye. "Can you make it hail, or cause an earthquake? Or or or.."
"Instantly combust something?" Raye finished.
"Yeah! Cool!" Mina agreed.
He raised a brow. "Umm.. I use to.. see there's been a change and.."
"Oh great, don't tell me, I know." Leda replied cynically. "You've
got no powers at all?"
He turned blue. "Eh-heh-heh, yeah.. see.. ummm..."
Leda rolled her eyes. "Great, just what we need. A tag along."
Joer resented that. "Hey, you know there's more to fighting then
special powers. There's tactics and styles and things I can teach you girls."
"But your not suppose to do things like that, remember? I think by
teaching us, you'll ruin the future or something." Leda replied.
Joer shut up for a second.
Artemis on his lap asked. "Can we know how you lost your powers?"
Joer scratched his head. "I guess it wouldn't hurt... see.." he told
his resurrection story once more. The same version he had given Sailor Pluto,
except with fewer details, before he had left.
"Wow!" Mina was impressed. "Artemis, is that true? If we're like
severely injured, can we heal too, when we transform back?"
Artemis thought for a moment. "Umm.. I don't know. See the pens, even
the new ones I gave you girl aren't really doing anything except help focus
your majik energy. All the pens really do is give you guys a suit."
"Really?" Raye wondered. "You mean our pens don't give us special
powers?"
"No.. you guy have it within yourselves.. I thought you guys knew?"
"Wait, how's that work, Artemis? Like what do I do.. Do I like pump
my bod up with energy and turn into a scout?" Mina asked.
Artemis shrugged. "I really don't know. My instructions were, make
them a suit and you're soul will know what to do."
"Huh? Who's instructions?"
"Queen Serenity's, see when I woke up.."
(See SMU:NEGATIVE 5 "How Sailor V Came to Be, The Old Adventures of
Mina and Artemis.)
While Artemis spoke away, Joer began to wonder if he should tell
them.
<Nah.. I'll just confuse them.. They won't understand the majik that goes
into transforming, until they've pass Densetsu training ofcourse.>
"... so I'm not really sure yet.. remember my memories aren't much
better than yours."
"Hmm.. strange." Amy pondered the process of space pocketing these
bodies and generating a new one. <Surely Joer would know.> "Joer, what
about our bodies being stored away and then our memories being passed to
a scout body that our powers generated?"
<Damn.. how'd she figure that out? She's not suppose to know that
now! Sheesh, she's always been too smart anyways.. This is bad, I think I'm
changing the future already.> "No."
"Do you mean that's not how it works?" Amy asked.
"Uh, yes, see it's like.. what Mina said, you guys get powered up
and stuff."
Even though this conversation was very interesting and all, Raye
didn't feel like listening anymore. She had a sudden urge to find Serena.
"Is it?"
He nodded.
Raye got up, then everyone stared at her.
"Hey, where you off too?" Leda questioned.
She blinked. "Oh, I think I forgot to do something at home. I'll seeya
guys later, OK?" She was out in a hurry.
They all shrugged then went back to their conversation.
Leda suspected something was up. "You know Prince Ailyees or what ever
you call yourself. I think you just held a lot of things back just then. Maybe
even lied."
Joer stared at her, then nodded. "Yes I might have."
Leda was surprised by his frankness.
He continued. "Because I think the way this conversation's going I'll
really screw up the future. So, you guys don't mind if we just stop talking,
do you?
The girls were wordless.
Artemis wanting to help him out, said. "How'bout we watch some
TV?"
Joer petted Artemis. "Good idea."
Amy nodded, then went to her set and turned it on. There was a new
episode of Dragoon Ball Z on. Well, new for them. Joer saw this one long
ago. But it was better then them talking. So instead of watching, he
pondered how he could help the scouts without ruining the timeline.
***
Checking out the meats, Reeny noticed the rank smell of it.
"Darien, it smells nasty in here."
Darien sniffed and got a pretty good wiff of it. "You're right."
After closer inspection of the meats, he said startled, "The meats all
gone bad!"
"Huh?! What?! Really?!" Serena couldn't believe it. She picked up
a package and noticed it's sickly color. "You're right.. OK I.. I totally
can't believe this. I I mean.. this place has got a really good reputation."
"Yeah well, forget their reputation, we're obviously not going to buy
anything from here." He took Reeny's hand and left.
"Hey guys wait!" Serena called behind them. Her senses told her not
to leave this place yet. But Darien and Reeny were already gone. So instead
of running after them, she stayed and continued to examine the package in
her hand.
"Serena!" Luna popped up.
"Luna!?" She was surprised to hear her talk out loud in public.
Luna wasn't worried about that. She was more worried about the evil
energy she felt around this place. The same one the she felt before they
entered. "Something strange's going on here."
*
Raye felt something drawing her to Serena. The feeling was telling
her where to go. It was strange, she'd felt nothing like it before. Turning
a corner, she saw Darien and Reeny at a meat stand. Wondering why Serena
wasn't with them, she walked up to them and asked, "Excuse me."
Darien and Reeny turned to see who it was.
"Hi Raye!" Reeny greeted.
Darien saw her and thought dourly, <You!>
"Oh, hi you guys. Have you seen Serena. She said she'd be with you
guys."
Reeny made this arrogant expression. "Who cares about her."
Raye didn't like how the munchkin talked about her girl. "Of course
you should care about her. She's always taking care of you."
<I knew it! Suddenly she's sticking up for Serena,> he thought.
Then he told himself, <Hey, why you mad at her for? She's doing you
a favor, idiot. She's taking care of Serena, keeping her safe.. Don't
be mad at her fool, encourage it, keep them together. That way Serena'll
be happy. That's what you really want.>
Reeny felt ashamed for only a moment. She immediately figured out
a way to have Serena not go with her to the curry party. "Raye? Do you
know anything about cooking curry."
Raye pictured herself putting a curry TV dinner in a blender.
"Do I? I would like to think so.. Hey I can cook all kinds of exotic food
as long as it comes in a package."
"Oh..," <Still better than Serena>. "Raye, please say you'll come
to my school tomorrow and make curry for our big family dinner."
<Yeah, this is good. That way, Raye could go with Serena and..
and I wouldn't have to be there with her to feel all jealous that she's
not mine anymore.> "Reeny's class is having a curry cooking party."
"Oh.. but this isn't right. You already asked Serena to go."
"But I want you to go, Raye."
<That'll hurt her feelings.> "Well, I still think you should
go with Serena."
<Oh, Reeny wants Raye to take Serena's place. I should have known.
That wouldn't be so bad.. but it wouldn't be as much help as them going
together.> "If you go, then I can go to work."
Raye looked up and met Darien's stare. She looked into his eyes,
feeling he knew something. But it subsided immediately, when she heard
what Reeny had said.
"No Darien, both of you have to come, PLEASE!" she begged.
The way she sounded, it was hard for her to argue.
*
Continuing to investigate the store, Serena asked Luna. "What
do you think's going on here?"
Luna hopped onto a shelf. "Check this out." She tapped a pot
and it disintegrated like it was suddenly millions of years old. <Only
nega energy would cause something like that.>
Startled, Serena stepped backwards and bumped into the shelf
behind her. All the objects on it melted away too. "Ewww! It's all
rotten! Oh NO, what am I gonna do about Reeny's curry dinner?"
"I think this'll effect a whole lot more than your dinner."
"Yeah.. I guess so." Then she grinned noticing something that
hadn't been affected by whatever evil this was. Picking it up and
and showing it to Luna, she said, "Hey! I found a carrot that seems
to be OK."
*
Sitting on a bench near the meat stand they were at, Raye's
mind ran with many thoughts. <This is way weird. I shouldn't be going
with Darien, Serena should. It'll hurt her feelings if she doesn't
go.>
Her companions, Reeny and Darien, were thinking as well.
<Funny, I felt warm and safe when I was with Serena and Darien..>
<Do not think of them like that, Darien,> he told himself. Of
course it didn't work and an image of Serena and Raye having hot
passionate sex appeared in his mind. <Errh great..> Getting aroused,
he felt his pal rising. <No not now! Here in the middle of the street?!
OK.. OK.. count cars. Yeah that'll do it. One, two, three, four
five, sex, Serena, Raye.. NOOO!> It was painful erect now.
Reeny tapped her thigh.
"Yeah, Reeny?"
"Raye, I wanna go get Serena."
Raye sighed. "I was just about to suggest the same thing."
She took her hand and left.
Darien knew a way to calm himself down. He imagine seeing
Zoyicite. That was a major turn off. Then he noticed Raye and
Reeny heading off, and chased after them.
(LOOK AT DARIENS FACE IN THAT SCENE! Don't tell me he ain't thinking
nothin. The boys definitely concentrating.>
*
Reeny, hopping along, was heading back to the grocery store they
were at earlier. Raye felt that drawing force again. She knew she was
getting closer to Serena. Suddenly, she felt Serena's fear.. and the
evil the super market had. She grabbed Reeny's hand and stopped her from
going further. "No, stop Reeny. I sense something evil there. Stay here."
She ran towards the building.
Darien crouched down to Reeny's level and smiled. "Hey Teeny-Reeny,
you stay way out here, out of harms way OK?"
"Why?"
"Just do what I say, and things will be fine. I've got to go help.
Now (he looked around and found a bench, he then carried her to it) be
a good girl and don't leave."
"OK.. " she said confused.
He took off after Raye.
Fortunately she had her watch communicator, the one they've barely
used since using the other one was still a habit. With it she pressed the
emergency button. It would signal her position, no need to talk anymore.
Artemis had been proud when he'd thought of it. Anyways, she found a spot
in the alley of the store and transformed. She looked, and found a back
door. <I'll take them by surprise..> she thought.
*
On the set, Goku was walking down a dark dark dark hallway, when..
Everyone jumped at the sound of their communicators beeping.
"Jeezus!" Mina popped her watch communicator open and saw the Mars's
light lit. "Mars says there's trouble guys."
"Already?" Leda asked. "It was only yesterday that they last
attacked."
Mina shrugged. "Guess they're rushing. Come on scouts, let's go!"
They were heading out the door, when Mina stopped, which caused Amy
to crash into her from behind, which caused Leda to crash into Amy's behind.
Mina flew out the door, then crawled back into the house between, Amy's and
Leda's legs.
"Prince Ailyees, errh, Joer.. are you coming with?"
Getting up, he nodded. "Be right with you."
"OK.." her voice was unsure. They took off, with Joer and Artemis
trailing behind.
Joer couldn't believe how fast they could run, even as mortals. He
struggled behind them only to see them hide in an alley, then emerge as
senshi.
They looked back and he waved at them. "Go a head, she needs your help. We'll
catch up."
The three shrugged at eachother, then leaped off at an unimaginable
speed.
"Pretty fast, eh?" Artemis commented as he ran beside him.
"No kidding." His pace slowed, remembering that he had to ask Artemis
something.
"What's wrong, you tired?" Artemis asked.
"Its not that." He stopped, and picked up Artemis. "Artemis, how much
of the past do you remember?"
"You mean of the Moon Kingdom?"
He nodded.
Artemis shook his head. "Not much."
"Do you remember more about me. More than just knowing that you
were my cat."
Artemis blinked. "Why?"
"Artemis, I just have to say the less you remember the better. If
you do remember something, please don't tell the others. I'm sure the
information you give them will effect the future.. and I'm trying to do as
little damage as I can. The way things are looking buddy, I'm probably
the one that causes the paradox shift."
Artemis wasn't dumb. "Paradox shift?"
He winced. "Operrhh.. see?!"
"So that's why your really here, in this time." Artemis chuckled.
"OK, Al, I'll keep my mouth shut.. I mean, all I can remember other than
being your cat was that you're Princess Serenity's uncle."
Joer's eyes widened. That was the exact thing he really didn't want
them to know now. "Artemis! Don't go around saying that."
"Why not?" Then he realized something. "OH woah buddy! That means
Reeny's Serena's sister from the future.. and that means..."
"No! Stop that Artemis, I mean it. No more talking about the future."
He shut his mouth.
"Please Artemis. Do not mention anything to any of the girls that
I'm Serenity's uncle OK?"
Artemis nodded. "OK.. just tell me, is Reeny Serena's sister.. or
someone else? I mean.. they are related, I know that now."
Joer thought for a second. He knew that it'd be better if he just
told him the truth this once. If he didn't then Artemis would still know
Serena and Reeny were related somehow. <Besides, if he does spill, it'd
be better if he spilled the truth.. I hope?> "OK Artemis, I'm trusting you
here, and I mean trusting. Do not, and I mean DO NOT say this to anyone
else. That includes Luna as well."
Artemis was rather shocked to hear him say he might tell Luna, but he
nodded anyways. "I won't."
Joer nodded back. "Reeny's Serena's daughter."
Artemis looked like he was about to fall over. He suddenly covered his
mouth and laughed madly.
"What? What is it???"
"Ahhahahahaha.. you've got to be kidding me.. The way those two
fight..
the way Reeny treats Serena. NO WAY! HAHAHAHA!"
Joer didn't think it was funny. "I'm serious, Artemis."
His laugh died rather quickly.
"Now remember what I said."
"Yeah.. sheesh.. Now I'm wondering who the father is."
"Huh? Now YOU"VE got to be kidding me. Who else could there be?"
He shrugged. "Well, Darien and Serena.. this is what Mina's been
telling me, have broken up. So I guess they get back together after all.
That's nice to know."
Joer sighed. He just did it again. "Yeah, I guess.. now lets get
going.
They're probably already there.. where ever the fight is."
Artemis looked questioningly at him. "Do you happen to know where that
is?"
Joer looked questioningly back. "No. I thought you did."
"Oh great."
Artemis and Joer hung their head.
***
Prizma and Avery, in there normal Black Moon apparel, felt that the
energy in the store had peaked. It was time to curse this place and take
over the star point.
"Now it's time to finish the job," Prizma announced.
"Droid Avocado do your thing." Avery commanded.
"Yes Master." The droid did a nice little strip transformation
sequence.
Finished transforming, the droid commanded the dark energy to flow
throughout the store.
*
Serena in the path of the dark energy, ducked. The carrot in her
hand was struck and it turned into dust. "Aehh.. what's going on?"
Luna shouted, "Serena, transform already!"
Serena nodded then took out her broach. "Moon Crystal Power!"
*
Luna, trying to interrupt the droid, leaped at her. Avocado quickly
responded by swatting her away. Luckily Luna landed without injury. Unluckily
the droid pulled out a banana and turned it into a sword. About to stab Luna,
Avocado was interrupted by Sailor Moon.
Doing her trade mark poses, Sailor Moon made a speech. "Drop it
banana
brain. You have polluted this super market and for that you need to be (lame)
stopped. And I'm just the one to do it. I'm Sailor Moon, and I stand for
love, and I also stand for justice. And in the name of the moon I shall
punish you. Only one place for rotten fruit like you, the compost heap!"
The droid didn't know whether to laugh or cry. It was the worse
sounding thing she'd ever heard. Even worse, another Sailor came, riding
on a shopping cart.
"Here's Sailor Mars, check this out." Sailor Mars leapt off the cart
heading for Avocado. She also did some poses, but thankfully her speech was
a lot lot shorter. "In the name of Mars, I'm shutting you down."
The droid wasn't impressed with a cart, so she threw her bomb
at it, causing the cart to explode before it hit her.
Though it wasn't much, Avery complimented the droid anyways.
"Very nicely down."
"Finish them off, now." Prizma commanded.
"Guacamole bomb!" Tons of fruit bombs flew at Moon and Mars. They
dodged the explosives madly, but unharmed. They did this for a few seconds.
Now they were at a standstill. Moon and Mars across the way from
the droid.
Avocado readied an attack. "Rotten egg bomb!"
Tuxedo Mask knew it was his turn.
A rose sliced the egg in half in mid flight, then impaled itself onto
the ground.
Surprised, the droid looked up to the corner at Tuxedo Mask.
"The stench of your rotten fruit can not be tolerated. I will not
allow you to use your poison to contaminate this super market any longer."
A force of habit struck Sailor Moon and she stood, gasping at the
sight of Tuxy. "Oh you tell her Tuxedo Mask... Ooo he looks soo.. oo uh."
Mars behind her, wondering what she was going to say, bit her
lip.
Habits die hard sometimes, but Serena fought hard not to be in
awe of Tuxedo Mask. "Nice to have you here to help Tuxedo Mask."
He nodded, then leapt at the droid. The two had a pretty fancy
sword fight, even though Tuxedo Mask only had his cane.
Wanting to impress Sailor Moon as well, she launched her Mars
Celestial Fire Surround attack at Avery and Prizma.
Effortlessly, Prizma raised a shield which deflected Mars' rings.
"Why didn't it work?" Mars felt more confused than embarrassed.
"Now it's my turn to try." Avery said.
"Not yet." Prizma replied. "I'm your older sister so I get to go
first."
"But I'm more competent so I get to go."
"How dare you! I'm going first!"
"No I am."
"Enough of this sibling rivalry." Jupiter leapt in.
Mercury and Venus came from the other side and surrounded them.
"Who are you sisters?" Mercury questioned.
Venus nodded. "Yeah, we want answers this time."
"Darn!" Prizma groaned.
Tuxedo final got an opening. He throw his cane and hit the droid
on the shoulder, forcing her to drop her sword. "Sailor Moon! Do your thing!"
Sailor Moon took out the cutey moon rod and did her thing. "Moon
Scepter Elimination!"
The focused energy hit the droid and turned her into dust.
"The fruit cocktail just turned into dust," Moon cheered.
"Uh.. I think we have another engagement." Prizma said fretfully.
"Yeah, but don't you worry, we'll be back, Sailor Scouts."
Avery and Prizma teleported off.
Mars and Moon rushed over to Mercury, Venus, and Jupiter.
"Hi guys! I thought we already knew who they were?" Mars asked.
Jupiter shook her head. "We had a little talk before we got
here. We've decided that it wouldn't be wise to completely trust
Joer yet. Till we got some evidence, of course"
"And you would trust what the Black Moon sisters would
say?" Mars asked.
"Joer, who?" Tuxedo Mask joined in.
"Quick! You guys better change back!" Luna interrupted their
conversation. "The shoppers are reviving."
The six nodded, and detransformed.
(Dialogue taken mostly from the NA version but mixed in with the JP
because sometimes it made more sense... not that the JP didn't make more
sense in the first place. It's just that, I have more readers from the
NA version. Also, excuse me for using the NA dialogues for the previous
scenes. It's just so amazing that I only had to manipulate them a little
to make this story work out. Weird huh?)
***
Joer huffed, having run with Artemis from Amy's house to this part of
town about a mile away at a rather quick pace. Luckily for them Artemis had
a keen sense of smell and had tracked down Sailor Venus.
"This way!" Artemis swerved onto another road perpendicular to this
one.
Following, he turned a corner and caught sight of Small Lady sitting
on a bench. He approached her, smiling. "Princess Serenity."
Reeny looked up to her grand uncle. Her first reaction was total
surprise, but a sudden rush of emotions made her burst out in tears. "Uncle!"
She reached up and hugged him.
He put his arms around her and held her tight.
She cried in his arms for a moment, then pulled away. "How's mommny?
Can I go home now?"
Joer forced a smile. "She's fine now Reeny, but we can't go home yet."
She blinked. "She is! Why can't we yet?"
"Small Lady," he said softly, patting her head gently, while he
thought
up a another white lie. "We have to stay here to protect you from the Black
Moon Clan. I'm here now so you don't have to be sad so often."
She nodded.
"Also, you won't have to be searching for the Ginzuishou anymore, OK?
I've got it."
A smile crossed her face. "Really? Can I see it?"
"Um.. not just yet, OK?" He patted her head again.
She nodded. "OK.. When will we be able to go home then?"
"Once the Black Moon Clan has been defeated in this time... You won't
mind really, will you? I promise it won't take very long."
She smiled again, trusting him.
"Good. Princess," he began, "there's something else I've got to
tell you. See, it's very dangerous for you to be hanging around your uncle
too often. The bad people might attack me and find you.. so Princess, I won't
be around all the time. Infact, you'll probably see me only a little bit
while we're here."
She looked confused for a second. "But you said..."
"Princess, you do understand?"
"Mm." She hugged him. "Yes uncle..." Her eyes watered.
"That's a good girl.. Now you be strong and don't forget I'm here."
He let go of her and brushed away the tears on her face. "Don't worry too
much, everything will be OK. And I'll come see you once in while to brighten
your day. But also remember there's lots of people here that care about you
as well. Serena's one, and if you treat her nice she'll be nice to you back.
I've got to go, I'll see you soon. OH! One last thing. Princess, don't
talk to anyone about me OK? Even if you see me with the Senshi, don't
say anything to them if they ask." She nodded, and he moved back, rubbing
her head as he stood. Waving, he ran where he had seen Artemis go.
To the supermarket.
The grocery's automatic door slid open for him. Not looking, Joer
bumped into someone, who bounced off him. He look, it was Darien. "King..
uuhh Darien."
"Huh?" He said, steadying himself. "Do I know you?"
"Uh.."
"I think it'd be better if you guys continue your conversation
some other place. I'm sure the authorities are coming soon, and they'll
wonder why you guys weren't affected." Luna interrupted.
"Yeah!" Serena grabbed Darien. "You too can talk later. I've got
something to do tonight Darien, so the faster we get the ingredients for
the curry, the earlier I can get home."
Darien blinked. "Oh.. yeah."
"I'll seeya guys later?"
The girls nodded, and waved.
The two started walking away with Luna chasing behind them.
"Bye Serena!" Raye called.
Serena turned around and waved. "Bye Raye!"
Darien, curious, asked, "Is that the Joer fellow you were talking
about?"
"Uh-huh.. come on, where's Reeny?"
"Uh.. there (points).. who is he?..." Their voices faded off.
Joer smiled, looking at them together, walking away. "See Artemis?"
He shrugged.
"See what?" Mina asked.
Joer blinked, just realizing that the others were here. "Oh.. nothing,
anyways, how was the fight this time?"
Mina nudged for them to get going. They all started heading
somewhere.
"So?"
"It went well." Amy replied.
"Yeah, they chickened out." Leda added.
"Hmm.. sounds like them. You know the Black Moon Sisters aren't dumb.
If they know they can't win, they'll retreat."
"Joer?" Raye began. "What can you tell us? I mean, you've got to be
able to tell us something. Atleast something about the enemy."
He nodded. "Yeah, I know what you guys are feeling, its hey.. umm..
where we headed anyways?"
"My place," Leda answered.
"Oh.. I was saying, that I understand it must be hard to trust
someone who doesn't tell you much. I'm sorry, and I wish there was some way
around this. I wish I could tell you everything."
"Then what CAN you tell us?!" Leda said impatiently.
"Hmmmm." He scratched his head thinking. "Not much, nothing off the
top of my head atleast. I guess we'll run across something I can tell you
when something happens. But if you want to know something about the enemy, I
can atleast tell you who they are. You've met the Black Moon Sisters, their
names are Prizma, Catsy, Avery, and Birdie, that's from youngest to oldest.
Their commanding officer is named.. uh Rubeus, yes, I think that's correct.
They probably arrived here in this time about the same time as Reeny
arrived?"
"Yeah, same day." Raye replied.
"OK.. well, the way they did, I'm suspecting, is by using a time
fold ship. There are only few of them in the Black Moon, so that's why, I'm
guessing, a whole armada hadn't arrive." <Besides the fact the Sailor
Pluto closed the time gates before more ships could pass through, but I
don't need to mention that.>
"A ship?" Leda wondered.
"An armada!?" Mina asked as well.
"Uh, space ship.. their technology's very advanced. And armada of
spaceships, hundreds of them. Anyway, the ship is probably orbiting, cloaked
around Earth. Artemis, remind me to modify Amy's computer to find that ship.
It's the only way we're going to be able to defeat them. By boarding their
ship and .. uh sending them back."
The girls nodded.
"When will you be able to do this?" Amy questioned.
"Soon, maybe even tomorrow, if Artemis and I can figure out a
search algorithm, right?"
"ME?! Amy's the brain."
Amy turned blue.
"She is, but you've got some yourself... besides I don't believe
she'll understand coordinate vector motion and four dimensional warp
derivation yet."
"Who says I would?" Artemis complained.
"Trust me, you would."
"Maybe I can help with it anyways." Amy offered, being slightly
offended.
"NO!" Mina replied. "Umm.. remember Amy, you've got lots of homework
tonight.. and I've got lots of "homework" that you need to help me with?"
Amy blinked. "Oh.."
"That's OK." Joer responed. "I know how busy school is and teaching
you about the math I just talked about will just waste your time. Besides it
doesn't really matter much if I get that program done today, or tomorrow,
or next week. Frankly, once the program's started, it's still going take
weeks to find and trace the ship. There's lots of crap out there in space.
Identifying something with a virtual image of a pin head is pretty difficult,
even for that awesome computer of yours Amy."
<Weeks?> The girls thought.
"Well, we're here." Leda voiced.
Joer looked around, he remember this place.
***
"ERRHHH!!!" Esmeraud screamed as she entered her quarters. "Two hours
of briefing! God I hate that."
During the briefing, all of them talked and planned about ways to
take
Earth over. They discussed strategies on how to beat those Sailor Scouts. And
of course it came down to finding out their real identities but
unfortunately,
non of them had any ideas. The records never told neither. So basically it
was a repeat of what Wiseman had planned before. Ofcourse she wondered how
Demand could trust him after the string of failed plans. But some how she
knew he had too. They were just about to finish when Prizma and Avery had
arrived and reported that they had failed. Losing another droid brought
their count down to fourteen. Not counting the ones on the Death Sphere,
but most likely all of those had been destroyed.
Then a smile crossed her face remembering a droid.
She walked into her bedroom and licked her lips looking at the special
droid she'd found puncturing the third deck's wall, unconscious but undamaged.
"I'm back Moon King."
***
"Tada!" Joer cheared, while twisting and testing the fixed door knob.
Raye smiled.
Leda looked slightly thankful. "Of course I could have just bought
new parts. You didn't have to use the parts from the closet door."
Joer shrugged. "You don't use it anyways."
She shrugged back.
Joer face twitched.
Feeling the tension, Mina said. "Well, look at the time. Its late
and I've got lots of homework to do. Come on guys, lets finish our work.."
"Excuse me." Joer headed towards the bathroom, Artemis went with him.
"..at Amy's.. umm?"
"YES. LETS GET GOING. COME ON LEDA, I'M SURE ARTEMIS WON'T MIND
STAYING
HERE WITH JOER SO YOU CAN FINISH YOUR HOMEWORK AS WELL," Raye voiced.
Mina looked at Raye funny.
"What? .. "
*
"Damnit, I don't think I'm going like staying here." His aim, even
though the seat was down, was exceptional.
"Well, where else are you willing to stay?"
"Yeah I know. I just don't get why she's so crabby. Back in the
Moon Kingdom, she and I got along OK? Right?"
"Hmm.. girls go figure... You know, isn't that suit a little small?
It's gotta hurt to put that thing back in those tight pants."
Joer didn't know if that was a compliment or not. "Don't look."
"What? I'm a cat stupid."
*
Leda shook her head. "I don't think I should."
Mina blinked. "Why?"
She leaned in close. "Mina, I'm sorry. Look I'll make it up to
you tomorrow, OK? I just can't have this guy out of my line of sight."
Mina whispered back half joking. "Are you turning straight on me?"
"No!"
Mina smiled and gave her quick kiss. "OK, I won't force you this
time, but you better make it up to me tomorrow."
"I will, bye Sunshine." Leda's hand traced the side of her face.
Mina enjoyed her touch momentarily. She then opened the door.
"Bye." Raye and Amy followed her as the door shut.
"Where they going?"
Leda turned around quickly, half startled. "Wha.. oh, to Amy's
to study."
"Mina study?" One of Artemis's eye got bigger.
Leda then realized that that might of been a mistake. He maybe would
want to go find her. "EE.. yeah."
"That's a good idea, I've got some studying to do too. Come on
Artemis." They went to her living room, and Leda followed. "Remember the
Antorian incident? The flux matrix..." The rest of the sentence was all a
bunch of new words to Leda.
Trying to understand what they were saying made Leda's eyes go
googily.
"I'll just go make dinner now," she said giving up.
Joer turned to her. "Uh.. OK.. Um, so do you?"
Artemis nodded. "Alittle..."
"OK.. so do you think...."
*
"What'd she say?" Raye asked, as they got our Leda's apartment.
"That she has to keep an eye on him.. she doesn't trust him one bit."
"Hmm.. I don't see what's not to trust." Amy said.
"Yeah me neither." Raye agreed.
"Well, you know Leda. She's been through alot, at least that's what
she's hinting. Hmm.." She thought for a second. "I guess it's hard for her
to trust people... You two have got to remind me to ask her about her life,
before she met us I mean."
Raye nodded. "Good idea. It's funny too. I've gotten so close to her
and just realized that I don't know much about her."
Amy nodded also. Then thought, she knew very little of Mina as
well. But before she could ask, Raye and Mina got into a conversation
about feminine hygiene.
After walking several blocks, they were only a few away from Amy's
when Raye heard someone call her.
"No way, I wouldn't deush. It seems too, huh?" Mina, Raye and Amy
turned around surprised to find Raye's grampa wagging his ritual stick
at her, the one with the ofudas.
"Raye, you've been very irresponsible. You didn't finish the chores,
you said you'd do while I was gone."
"What? I did."
"The chimney, grand daughter. You forgot to clean it and shut it
for the summer."
"Oh yeah."
"Well, your coming with me then." He grabbed her hand and started
dragging her along.
"Wait grampa! I've got to do homework at Amy's and and.. I can't go!"
"You can do your homework at home. But first you'll finish your
chores."
Raye felt like doing what Serena did so well, whine. "But I don't
want to.. I'll do it tomorrow, I promise."
"No, you're doing it tonight or no going out any time this week."
"Thats not fair.. Oh man." She gave Amy and Mina a disappointed look.
"I guess I won't be coming tonight. Sorry guys."
Raye and Grampa started back to the temple.
Amy and Mina looked to each other and slumped. "Oh boy, you sure are
losing a lot of specimens, Amy."
She giggled lightly. "There's still you and Serena. I'm sure it'll
still be a very interesting and .. a very pleasurable experience."
"Hmm..." and sly grin crossed her face. "You like blondes don't you?"
She grabbed her arm and continued to walk to her house.
Amy thought Mina might have a point there. "Maybe."
"You known, even if Serena and I have blonde hair, it doesn't mean
we have the same hair color everywhere."
"Yes, I noticed. Yours is a bit lighter."
"Hm, yes, but it could be vise versa somewhere else.. do you think
you can find out why?"
"Eh-heh, I'll have to do a very close inspection."

Lying in bed, Esmeraud smoked a fake cigar. "Was it good for you?"
"Err.. err err.. "
She hit the droid on the head.
"Err yes," said Moon King
Esmeraud smiled. "Of course it was."
***
Mina and Amy sat on her couch, both reading a interesting column in
a Japanese magazine.
"'What Satisfies Women's Lust', awesome." Mina had this funny smile
on her face while Amy was quite shocked. "Hee hee."
"Oh my."
Mina looked at her. "What's wrong with you? We did do most of this
stuff yesterday night."
Amy couldn't help but grin back. "I know.. but before it was totally
instinct. Reading about it makes it seem so different."
"Heheh.. it also makes me hot. How about we start now, I'm sure Serena
won't mind."
Amy blinked a few times. "OK."
And as usual, there communicator decided to ring just then.
Mina sighed and took out her hand held communicator from her purse.
"Hi guys."
"Serena?"
"Yeah."
"What's wrong?"
"I can't go... the little flamingo head's following me everywhere!
Even Luna. The little crap told her I was going somewhere, now she's after
me too. I can't lose'em."
"Ah man.. you sure?"
"Yeah.. I had to lock myself in the bathroom just so I could call
you."
"Doh, this stinks."
"Wahh.. think of something! I wanna go, I wanna see Raye!"
"Uh.. Serena? She's not here. She had to go home, her gramps said
she
didn't do all her chores."
"Oh.. well, anyways! Think of something!"
"Umm.. Amy?"
She shrugged back.
"OK.. Well, think of trying to sneak out yet?"
"Yeah, but I know Luna's gonna be able to follow me.. and that'll
just
ruin the party."
"No kidding.. OK.. ummm. I know! Say Amy just got a dog and you wanna
see it!"
For an actual moment, Serena thought about it. "Hmm.. yeah but doh,
the devil munchkin will want to see it too."
"Oh yeah, damn."
"Serena, what are you doing in there? Who you talking to," Mina heard
Luna's muffled voice.
"Umm.. um.. my self.. talking.. uh.. uh-oh. (whispering) I gotta go..
I'll try to make it, OK? Bye."
"Bye."
Mina and Amy let out audible sighs of disappointment.
"You think she'll make it?" Amy asked.
Mina shook her head, "I seriously doubt it."
"Oh.." Amy looked depressed.
Her eyebrow raising, Mina perked up a little. "Well.. it's not so bad,
you still have me for a specimen."
Amy's eyes rose to meet Mina's flirtatious one. "Umm.. I was lying
about
doing any study. I just-"
Knowing that Amy would just rant away her quilt, Mina just forgot
about
the foreplay she planned, and dove ontop of her.
Eye's wide open, Amy felt herself being laid down onto her couch.
Soon
her eyes closed, being overwhelmed by Mina's passion.
With their lips still pressed together, they let their hands explore
one another's body.
Amy thought of something.
"What!" Mina asked breathing hard as Amy pushed her off.
She smiled back. "I think there's still away for me to get some
information from this."
Mina rolled her eyes. "Amy! Come on, this isn't time to be a genius.
It's time for you to be my lover."
Amy blushed at the word, but rolled out of being under Mina anyway.
Her mini-super computer appeared in her hands. "Don't worry, this is all I've
got to do." She pressed a few keys turning on the body analysis function then
put it down on the table by her couch.
Amy turned back to look at Mina with a grin. "Are we ready to
continue."
A sense curiosity captured Mina's being. "What's it doing?"
Amy shrugged. "Just record information of what's about to take place."
"Like a camera?"
"More than that, it records all our interior workings as well and
other
things.. in more than real time."
Mina thought for a second. "But can it play back like a video tape?"
"If you'd like."
Mina's mind filled with dirty thoughts. "Heehee.. come here Amy my
dear.. that thing might explode from too much information."
Amy smiled impishly back. "Oh really?"
In one swift motion, Mina's hand came down leaving a scratch on the
front of Amy's shirt. The fabric tore away, as Amy's bust pressed forward.
Mina blow the thread off her middle finger's nail. "Learned that from
Artemis."
Amy watched as her shirt and bra rolled off her body. "Oh my."
Mina smiled. "Doh, I'm sorry," she apologized, seeing a thin red cut
in-between Amy's breast. "But I'll fix that." Her tongue extended forward,
licking Amy's cut clean."
The slight tingling pain was quite a turn on. Amy eyes shut as she
leaned back. "Mina.. yes," she groaned as her lover left trails of her saliva
all over her breast.
Mina bit onto Amy's erect nipple, causing her head to be grabbed
tightly.
"Mina it hurts.. yes more."
Mina smiled inside as she continued to work Amy's breast. Her hands
however, found their way up Amy's skirt.
Amy felt Mina's finger's push her panties aside and enter her. "OH
GOD!" She screamed and screamed as Mina pushed more into her.
Mina knew how to pleasure a woman; her thumb pressed and teased Amy's
clitoris heightening Amy's pleasure.
Amy breathed hard as she felt herself coming closer. "MINA!" Her body
stiffened, feeling her vagina grasping onto Mina's two fingers. "OH GOD OH
GOD!" In a burst of ecstasy, Amy orgasmed fluidly. "YES!" Her mind went blank
of thought, all was pleasure.
Mina leered as she got off Amy. Licking her finger's clean, she
noticed
Amy breathing lightly, relieved from her sexual tension. "Was I good?"
Amy's eyes slowly open. "Yes, thank you."
She took Amy's hand. "Is that thing water proof?"
"Hmm.. the computer?"
Mina nodded.
Amy nodded back.
Her leering returned. "Hehheh, lets explore some shower fetishes,
shall
we?"
Amy was dragged to her bathroom for more fun.
*** (Darien's apartment.)
All was dark and quiet.
Lying on his bed, Darien rubbed the bridge of his nose.. a headache
was coming, he knew it. His finger brushed over his eye, catching a tear.
<Serena..,> he painfully thought.
The whole time she was preparing Reeny's curry, she'd seem so happy,
and it cheared him up a little. But the longer he thought of why she was
happy, the more he realized that she wasn't his anymore. Though he felt
angry at himself for being mean to her, he had felt maybe there would be
a time when they could be together again. Except now Serena had someone
else; and he and her could never be.
Darien fell asleep crying.
*
King Endymion found himself in a void, much like the gates of time.
Hearing a voice, he followed it. <Something's dragged me out of my time..
that voice sounds so familiar.>
A woman stood in the shadows.
"Step further no more, my son."
"M..?"
"There is very little I can tell you."
<That's not her voice..>
"You have destroyed the correct time line.. and with it your life.
I saved you from perishing in the void of non-existence.. but I can not
save you forever." She stopped talking then turned around.
"What mush I do?"
"You must undo.." She faded but not before he glimpsed sliver
streams of hair.
"Queen Se.."
All went white.
*
Crouched in a dark room, King Endymion remembered very little of
what and where he had been. And now this place was so foreign.
Yet it wasn't.
<My apartment!> King Endymion stood in the middle of his bed room.
There he saw his former self asleep. He then looked down at his arms..
they were translucent still.
Suddenly, a memory he knew he must of had came back..
one he thought he'd never would remembered. About the Moonlight Knight.
He walked to stand above Darien. A whisper, "I know what I must do..
I
must love Serena again." He bent down and much like the Moonlight Knight had
done before, merged with Darien's body.
*
Darien awoke in cold sweat. "Uggh.. I hope this is sweat!"
he groaned. A feeling he had made him reach for Serena's picture.
The crack sealed itself.
