"So why are we still handing around here. Let's go kick some daemon ass." A short innocent looking girl with blue announced. Normally this would have caused looks of scrutiny and surprise from the blue haired girl's four female companions but recently they had learned to expect this sort of language from the girl.
"We have to finish the fight," said one of the blue haired girl's companions as all five girls looked toward a ruined high rise in the distance.
"To save Chibi-Usa," replied another.
"And to save Hotaru" added the one beside her.
"We are the Sailor Soldiers of love and justice" proclaim the tallest of the group.
"Everyone" prompted what appears to be the leader of the group as she whirled around to face the others. A leader for all appearances to be a teenage girl with twin odangos of blonde hair held in two tight buns on each side of her head.
Knowing exactly what their leader had in mind, three of the four girls nodded and raised their right hand into the air with their fingers spread.
"Mars star power." shouted the girl with long hair that is dark as night.
"Jupiter star power." shouted the tallest.
"Venus star power." shouted a blonde woman with straight hair down to her waist.
"Moon cosmic power." shouted the lead as she opened a heart shaped compact to reveal a similarly shaped crystal.
"Make Up!" the four shouted simultaneously.
In a flash of blinding light that obscured intricate choreography, four soldiers of love and justice replaced the four school girls that was their previously. Standing on the broken high way looking utterly ridiculous in their parody of a schoolgirl's uniforms the four soldiers stared at the only one among them that had not transformed. That is ridiculous from the perspective of the blue haired girl that is now receiving the attention of the transformed teenagers.
"No way are ya gonna get me in that outfit again." said the blue haired girl as she leaped on to one of the light posts then on to the next light post heading in the general direction of the ruined high rise.
Following the lead of the blue haired girl, the others also started their short journey toward what was once Mugen academy. As they approached what was once the premier institution of education in Japan, leaving clouds of duck in their wake, Mars gasped and suddenly stopped. The pause of that one girl in turn caused the others to stop as well and look toward their companion.
"Mars" asked the Sailor Moon out of concern.
"I suddenly felt dark energy." stated Mars. As if on cue a black translucent shell of energy erected over their intended destination.
"Come on." urged the girl standing the lamppost, somewhat egger for the upcoming battle. Resuming their dash for headquarters of the Death Busters, the anxiety of the other four girls rose but they remained unwavering in their mission to save their friends and the prevention of the Silence. At last the girls reached the source of the evil that had been terrorizing Tokyo. Out of habit, the four magic girls looked toward what were the brains of their group to bypass the force field. The blue haired girl, once known as Mizuno Ami or Ami-chen to the others, looked back at them and shrugged. "What are ya looking at me for?" replied the blue haired girl.
Without warning the doors and windows of Mugen academy bursts open and outpours a river purple fluid, which takes on human form when it touches the ground. Unlike their counterparts these monster had no trouble passing though the barrier and immediately went to work on the Sailors. Falling like rain from the sky the purple creature's first wave was able to knock the Sailors off their feet. Acting to survival instincts the Sailors released their attacks. Jupiter was the first to destroy the dozens of creatures near her with a Sparkling Wide Pressure.
"Crescent Beam." Venus blasted the monsters closest to her.
"Burning Mandala." intoned Mars as she extended her right hand toward the monsters and shot forth rings of fire.
"Mouko Takabisha" shouted the blue haired girl in mid air as she was able to avoid the raining daemon's initial assault. Even before the blue haired girl finish the focus phrase for her attack a ball of blue light have already gathered in her palm. With practiced ease the girl, send the ball of ki toward the river of daemons. The ki blast flew from the palm of the girl and into middle of the daemon army and instantly vaporized those too close to the blast radius leaving a smoking a hole on the street which were instantly covered by the second wave of daemons that replaced those who were destroyed.
The battle raged on as senshi and martial artist unloading attack after attack on the ranks of the enemy but with no visible result. For every daemon their attacks destroyed, two others emerged from pool of purple liquid to replace its banished comrade. "There's too many." Commented the blue hair martial artist as he released another blast of ki.
"We can't stop." Replied Jupiter her released a blast of her own.
"We have to save Chibi-Usa." Added Mars as she once again used her Burning Mandala attack to destroyed a squad of daemons but this time it also stopped the attacking daemons from going after Sailor Moon, who some how managed to trip during the battle. Final with Mars holding off the daemons' advances, the leader of the Sailor Soldiers magically retrieved her specter and prepared her attack.
"Moon Spiral Heart Attack." Sailor Moon released an enormous blast of energy that banishes all daemons from the battlefield. Alas, their efforts were futile as quickly Sailor Moon's attack cleared the battlefield a second wave of daemon is already forming in front of the heroines. As the second wave of daemons hit the ground and take on humanoid form the Sailors knew that they had to come up with something soon or the Silence will cover the world. However, literally for the life of them the heroines were unable to come up with a single way to get though the barrier.
"It's no use." voiced Jupiter as she looked toward the forming horde of daemons.
"What can we do?" asked Sailor Moon in response.
"I wonder how deep that barrier goes." asked the blue haired girl to no one in particular. The question was just the blue haired girl thinking aloud; not expecting her musing to be answered the girl was surprised when the others looked toward her.
"Let's find out." said Jupiter as she readied another electrical attack. "Sparkling Wide Pressure" shouted Jupiter as she again extended her hand to deliver her attack. Unlike the previous times that Jupiter used her attack, the ball of electricity was not intended for the hordes of daemons but rather the ground immediately in front the Sailors. When the ball of electrons met the ground, a hole was blown though the street revealing a utility shaft underneath. The girls first looking at the hole in the ground then at each other, they nodded with the understanding that will have to craw among power lines, rat and other vermin in order to by pass the barrier.
"Fire Soul." Mars guided her attack in a wide ark as she destroyed the closest daemons that now surrounded them. Looking up from the hole the other girls now found that the daemons had them surrounded in every direction while they were preparing themselves for their repulsive task.
"Mouko Takabisha" shouted the blue haired martial artist as she cleared a line of daemons with a ki blast.
"Moon Spiral Heart Attack." Sailor Moon once again destroyed an army of daemons in a wide perimeter. Not wasting any time and allow the daemons to regroup the blue haired girl dashed toward the hole even as Sailor Moon was finishing her attack. Suddenly she stopped when she heard the scream of the girl that she came to know as Usagi, alias Sailor Moon.
The sudden screams of their leader stopped the first of the girls from jumping into the hole that Jupiter had created. Turning around they saw a hand coming out of a hole in space firmly gripping the neck of Sailor Moon. Quickly rushing to Sailor Moon's rescue, three Sailor Soldiers and one martial artist tried to pull Sailor Moon back from the hole to no avail. Even with the blue haired girl's ki enhanced strength and the other's magically endowed powers they watched helplessly as Sailor Moon continue to slip from their fingers and into the hole. There efforts became completely wasted however as the regrouping daemons chose that moment to attack. Rushing toward the girls in a pool of purple liquid the daemons didn't stop until they soaked the feet of the girls in their liquid body. Coiling up the girls' legs then wrapping themselves around the girls the daemons sacrificed themselves to release a charge of purple electricity, which had the effect of shocking the girls into releasing their leader.
The sailors and martial artist was blown outwards from their position by the electrical shock. They landed on their behinds a few feet away and watched in horror as the hand pulled Sailor Moon completely through the hole. "They have her." stated Mars in shock as she watched the hole in which Sailor Moon had disappear to closed. All the while, the others can only look on with both fear and sadness in their eyes as each worried for their captured leader.
Acting on orders from their mistress the daemons receded into the rubble. In a few moments, they disappeared from the street all together. Retreating further from the Sailors, the purple liquid flowed upwards from the feet of the barrier, completely covering it and reinforcing it. Standing on top of each other like statues of purple gelatin the daemons readied themselves for any attempts to breach their stronghold.
In the sky to the far right of the Sailor's, a helicopter approaches. On board the helicopter are the three outer senshi: Sailors Neptune, Uranus and Pluto. Their intensions were not that different from the other senshi on the ground. The outers did intend to prevent the Silence but the methods they intend to employ are drastically different. To them saving the world was more important than the death of a single innocent. Perhaps they were right, perhaps the sacrifice of little Hotaru was required this day. Perhaps the only way to avoid the Silence is with a single cowardly act. Moreover, who is to say that they were wrong? It is far better to be haunted by a guilty conscience than to be at peace with their honor intact but dead along the rest of humanity.
Besides the innocent little girl, Hotaru was in fact Sailor Saturn the Sailor Senshi of Destruction. In the minds of the outer senshi, Sailor Saturn was every bit as dangerous as the Silence. With her final attack Sailor Saturn have the power to destroy the world. If some how they manage to derail the Silence only to have Hotaru awaken as Sailor Saturn then all their efforts were in vane. For once Sailor Saturn awakens her only mission is the destruction of the world. If that is not bad enough, Hotaru has in her position Chibi-Usa's pure heart crystal. In order to save Chibi-Usa the only course of action is to kill Hotaru. Therefore, what can they do…?
As Sailor Uranus pilots the helicopter closer to their former place of education, she notices the barrier around their destination. "What's that?" she asked her two companions.
"That's no simple barrier." stated Sailor Neptune who sat beside the pilot.
"I wonder if we could get though that hole." Sailor Uranus referred to a star shaped opening on the barrier. A hole intended for the beacon to call forth Master Pharaoh 90, the master of the Death Busters and the source of the Silence. The hole was a blatant flaw in the fortress's defenses and an irresistible target for those that intend to intrude. This fact did not escape the current leader of the Death Busters, Mistress 9, and was probably set up with a secondary purpose of being a trap.
Unlike Mistress 9, the outer senshi either did not suspect their intended route of entry is a trap or ignored their suspicions all together. In any case, the outer senshi showed no external signs of fear as their helicopter flew toward the barrier. They were certainly surprised, however, when the daemons that surrounded the barrier leaped from their position and started tearing apart the helicopter. In the blank of an eye, the daemons wrapped themselves on the helicopter then started to emit a wave of electricity, shocking the helicopter's occupants and destroying its electrical equipments. Mere moments after the attack begin the helicopter went up in a ball of fire.
On the ground the inner senshi and one martial artist had not yet recovered from the shock of loosing their leader then they watched the explosion of a helicopter over head. Looking at the blinding explosion in the sky then at small maintenance tunnel the blue haired girl came to a decision. Before the others could react, the blue haired girl made a made dash toward the barrier.
"Don't do it Ranma." Yelled Venus in an attempt to dissuade the blue haired girl from both bodily harm and doing what Venus knew she had in mind.
"Great, as if one apocalypse is not enough." Mars commented as she stared at the Ranma's retreating form.
"What are we going to do now?" asked Venus.
"The only thing we could do… Keep those daemons off her back." replied Jupiter without looking back at the other Sailors.
"We're running out of time." thought Ranma as he made his way toward the barrier. "If we can't stop 'em, I'll never see Akane again." Looking deep within Mercury's mind Ranma searched for the only thing that had the power to breach the barrier. With substantial concentration, Ranma's mental search yielded what he had wanted. "I just hope I wouldn't loose control like last time." Ranma thought grimly.
Running toward the distance where it would be possible for what he had in mind, Ranma triggered daemon's defenses. The daemons leaping at Ranma, they intended to destroy him as they had destroyed the helicopter. Seeing the descending daemons Ranma readied his ki blast but before he could act, a chain of hearts coming from behind him had already dispelled the incoming daemons. Not even turning to acknowledge his defender, Ranma continued his mad dash toward the barrier. When a second wave of attacks came from the daemons, Ranma did not even avoid them or ready an attack. This time, rings of fire from Mars' Burning Mandala vaporized Ranma's assailants. As Ranma came closer to his destination, the daemons doubled their efforts to deter him. In the next wave the number of attacking daemons doubled, this time it took Crescent Beam, Burning Mandala and Sparkling Wide Pressure to destroy the attackers.
Final Ranma was in position for what he had in mind. Seeing that the other girls are now in defensive position around him, Ranma began his chant.
"Lord of the Darkness and Four Worlds," a mysterious wind blows though the air. Ranma frowns in concentration.
"I beseech thy fragments," the mysterious wind picks up strength, freely blowing the hair of the girls. Already the stress of casting the spell is tempting Ranma to abort, not really a good idea because he does not know how to do that safely.
"by all of the power thou possesseth, grant the heavens' wrath to my hand," the area around the girls darken and black energy begins to gather in Ranma's hand. Ranma wants to scream aloud as the headache from the intense focus and stress.
"unleash the sword of dark, freezing nothingness," the power in Ranma's hand continues to gather. Ranma ignores the pain in his head as it becomes blinding, he proceeds toward the next phrase in the spell knowing that stopping know will have dire consequences.
"by our power, our combined might, let us walk as one along the path of destruction:" the energy in Ranma's hand becomes critical. He feels his body go numb as he realizes he is loosing consciousness.
"LAGUNA BLADE!" with the final phase a blade of black energy appears in between Ranma's hand as he blacks out.
T.B.C. pending…
Author's Notes: This came to me as a read another story with similar premise but it was moving too slow for my taste. So, what do you thank of it so far. Is a tasteless? Unoriginal? Uninspired? And dare I say it "has potential"? What ever it is C&C is begged for. Sent it to ffml_use@hotmail.com.
P.S. I'm looking for pre-readers if anyone is interested
