Doppelgangers Chapter One: A Vision and a New Enemy By Angel Raye
Chibi Mars ran to the sounds of screaming, her feet pounding on the pavement. She had no idea who this enemy was. It had been so long since they last had to battle anyone. Why did this have to start up again? Chibi Mars so loved the peaceful life. But she was a Senshi and it was her duty to help protect Crystal Tokyo.
She arrived at the scene. Fire was coming from above aiming at the people who were trying to run for cover. "Fire eh?" Chibi Mars said to herself. "Well that's no problem." She powered up and took careful aim.
"MARS FIRESTORM!"
The attack flew up toward the direction where the fire was coming from. No sooner had it reached its target than the attack was thrown back at Chibi Mars who had to jump out of the way in order to avoid being hit. "Coward!" Chibi Mars shouted. "Come out and fight face to face"
"If you say so Chibi Mars," said an oddly familiar voice. A small figure jumped down and faced Chibi Mars who gasped in shock.
She was facing herself.
Annika sat up in bed gasping for breath. It took her minute to realize she was in bed and that it had just been a dream. Once she regained her senses she looked around her room. Stardust was curled up asleep next to her. "Weird," she murmured as she pushed her hair back from her face. It wasn't unusual for her to have visions or dreams about something coming up. Was there a new enemy coming? It had been over six months since their last battle. Was the dream telling Annika that the peace was over? And why was the enemy herself? That just didn't make sense. Annika thought about doing a fire reading but she didn't want to wake up her parents or Koyo. "I'll check tomorrow," Annika told herself as she lay back down. She tried to go back to sleep but the dream continued to nag her mind.
Outside above the clouds a mysterious ship appeared. A woman gazed out at Crystal Tokyo. "So beautiful," she murmured. "And one day it will be mine"
"It will be my lady," a man replied as he came up next to her. "Once we defeat the Queen and the Senshi this will be all yours"
"That will be soon," the woman confirmed. "But first we must defeat the Senshi"
"My lady," the man began. "We don't have an army. How will we defeat the Senshi"
"Quite simple Teki," the woman replied holding out a strange device. "We will carry out the plan we talked about the other day. All you need to do is lure the Chibi Senshi into battle and then hit them with the beam from this device. Then bring the device back to me"
"Would you rather have me lure the Elder Senshi into battle?" Teki asked.
"Of course I would," the woman snapped. "But since they don't leave the palace as often as the Chibi Senshi do then we'll have to settle for the children. Once the children are taken care of then we can work on the Elder Senshi. Besides, the Elder Senshi won't be able to fight our army." She was quiet for a moment and then added, "The Chibi Senshi will be getting out of school this afternoon. That would be the best time to carry out our plan"
"As you wish my lady," Teki replied and he took the device and vanished.
Maggie stood in the ready position with her racket in her hands. She kept a close eye on Faith who was serving. "Okay Maggie," Faith called. "Try this one!" Faith served a simple serve over the net. Maggie ran to hit it. She swung her racket and missed the ball. Her racket flung out of her hand. "Uh oh," she muttered as the racket flew over the net. Faith had to quickly dodge out of the way to avoid being hit. "Sorry," Maggie called.
"Maggie, no offense," Faith stated as she stood up and brushed herself off. "But this is your fifth lesson and you aren't getting any better. Are you sure you want to learn this"
"Oh I do," Maggie replied. "I know I'm really bad at this but please don't give up on me"
"As long as I don't get hurt I won't," Faith promised. "But the moment that dumb racket hits my head the lessons are over." Before Maggie could reply both of their communicators went off. Usagi's voice came out. "New enemy by the arcade. I need all Chibi Senshi"
"Right," Maggie and Faith called together. Then they took off.
Cosmic Moon, Chibi Venus, Chibi Mars, Chibi Neptune and Chibi Saturn were trying to fight this new enemy. His attacks were weak but he was too fast for any of them to target. "It's like he's playing with us," Cosmic Moon stated.
"Well whatever his game is I wish it would stop," muttered Chibi Neptune as she threw an attack at Teki who once again dodged out of the way.
"Here we are," Chibi Jupiter called as she showed up with Chibi Mercury, Chibi Pluto and Chibi Uranus. "Who are we up against"
"Him," Chibi Mars replied pointing to Teki.
"Him," Chibi Uranus gasped.
"Oh good all of you are together now," Teki stated.
"Who are you and what do you want?" Cosmic Moon demanded.
"I just want to show you this," Teki replied as he held up a strange device, which looked like a dark red crystal spear.
"What is that?' Chibi Pluto asked as Chibi Mercury got out her computer.
"Oh just something I need right now," Teki told them. Before anyone could do anything a dark red beam shot out and engulfed Cosmic Moon and the Chibi Senshi. All of them were immobilized.
"I can't move," Chibi Venus gasped.
"I'm getting weaker," Chibi Jupiter added as she dropped to her knees.
"Just a little more," Teki murmured as the crystal began to glow. Once it reached it's maximum the beam disappeared. Teki disappeared right after while Cosmic Moon and the Chibi Senshi all collapsed to the ground, unconscious. Diana, Crescent, Stardust and Moonbeam dashed over to the fallen Senshi. "Call the Senshi," Diana ordered. "Quickly!"
Ami, Hotaru and a couple of other members of the palace medical staff were checking over Usagi and the rest of the girls. All of them had regained consciousness. "Are they all right?" Rei asked anxiously as she smoothed Annika's hair back.
"They're going to be fine," Ami reassured her. "There doesn't seem to be any damage but there one thing very strange"
"And what is that?" Haruka demanded.
"It seems that it wasn't energy pulled out of them but DNA," Ami replied.
"DNA?" Serenity exclaimed. "Why would they want DNA"
"No telling," Hotaru muttered. "But whatever it is we know it can't be good"
"Usagi, Gloria and Faith," Serenity stated. "I want the three of you to report to the conference room and tell us about this new enemy"
"We'll tell you what we can," Usagi replied. "But he wasn't there long enough. I think he just wanted to lure us so that he could use that thing on us"
"Then we need to find out what that device was used for," Minako declared.
"And find out where this new enemy is located and what they want," Michiru added.
"In the meantime I want these children to take it easy tonight," Ami ordered. "There doesn't seem to be any damage right now but we don't know if any effects will appear tonight"
"Ami's orders outranks the queen's," Minako sighed.
"Mama," Tama dashed into the room. "Is onee-san all right? I heard she was here"
"She's fine," Makoto replied putting her arm around her adopted daughter. "We'll just have to keep an eye on her tonight"
"Good," Tama heaved a breath of relief. But who attacked the Chibi Senshi?
Teki watched as his mistress worked a long machine. When he had returned she hooked the device to the machine and turned it on. That had been three hours ago. Teki wondered what she was doing.
"Finished," she shouted in triumph.
"And what is that Lady Ashi," Teki asked.
"The greatest enemy Cosmic Moon and the Chibi Senshi will ever face," Lady Ashi replied. The door to the machine opened and duplicates of Cosmic Moon and the Senshi came out. An evil look had been added to the Senshi uniforms but other than that they looked just like the original Chibi Senshi. "Cosmic Moon and the Chibi Senshi will have to fight evil versions of themselves," Lady Ashi told him. "And when they do they will destroy themselves."
"Ingenious my lady," Teki replied and their evil laughs vibrated throughout the ship.
That's the end of part one. Should I keep going?
