Alright eveyone, the first chapter of the second part, hope you all enjoy.
Chapter 1 Girl Awakens
Juuban Park…
The birds were chirping on a bright day as a young couple were sitting on a bench. "Naru, I have a surprise for you," said Umino blushing nervously.
"Oh," said Naru. Umino dug around his pockets and then pulled out two tickets. Then handed one to Naru. Naru looked at the ticket, her eyes widened in excitement. "Are these tickets to Italy?"
"Yes, been saving for years to get these Naru. For you," said Umino. "I have Hotel reservations and tours arranged, everything."
"Oh Umino," said Naru wrapping her arms around him making him blush and getting hot.
Unknown to them behind a nearby tree. A man in a black cloak with red clouds was watching. "Hmph, romance," said Deidara. "A trip would be the perfect opportunity," Then vanished in a puff of smoke.
Unknown Location…
(Mendacium's Chamber)
Mendacium was in his chambering turning pages in a book. "Hmm, Deidara, what do you have?"
"This girl Naru has a lover. I've suspected it for awhile now. I shall make him my art," said Deidara.
"Hold off on that for now. I promise you'll have your chance at making your art," said Mendacium.
A shadow Legionary then walked into the room, "Master Mendacium, Lord Deidara, the Emperor request everyone's presence."
"I see," said Mendacium.
(Chao's Throne Room)
The seven Centurions and remaining Akatsuki along with Kabuto were gathered around the injured Emperor. "Kabuto have you found out the identities of the Senshi, as well as the locations of many of those shinobi teams around the globe?" asked Chao.
"Yes, I have identified the identities of the Senshi and the locations of many of the shinobi teams," said Kabuto. "However, I do not deserve all the credit. Yurina," he called.
She shunshin in and stepped forward. "So, you are Uchiha Yurina," said Chao with interest.
"Emperor," said Yurina bowing down in respect.
"You've done well," said Chao. "As soon as I get a body, I will reward you."
"Thank you, Emperor," said Yurina.
"If I may ask," said Odium stepping forward. "Why does she deserve such praise?" He approached in a menacing manner.
Yurina activated her Sharingan and looked him causing him to stop in his tracks. "Hmm, crazy eyes like Itachi," said Kisame.
"Moving on," said Mendacium. "Where is Kakazu?"
"He is still searching for Hidan under the ice," said Kabuto.
"It's been a month since that day and losing my body to Uzumaki. Then there is Serenity. They will all feel my wrath," said Chao. "Mendacium what's you progress on the vessel?"
"We are currently finding more about her, we shall take her soon," said Mendacium.
"Just so you remember, the vessel is easier for me to take if the one is willing," said Chao.
"Of course, my Emperor. I'll shall persuade her one way or another." said Mendacium.
"For now. Odium go gather energy for me to feast on until then," ordered Chao.
"Of course, Emperor," said Odium. He then raised his arms. "Come forth my Gladiator!" Darkness filled the room as something came out o the ground. A man in the shape of a shadow, red eyes. Armed with a trident and net. "My Retiarius, let us go gather some energy," he ordered. "This will be a chance for me to meet the Inner Senshi," he though evilly.
"Remember Odium, your only there to get the necessary energy," said Vindicta,
"Do not tell me what to do Vindicta," sneered Odium.
"I still wonder why a fool like you became commander of the Shadow Praetorians," said Vindicta firing back.
"Do you have a deathwish!" yelled Odium pulling out his Warhammer. Vindicta began to put his hand on his sword ready to draw.
"Cease this at once!" ordered Chao. "Vindicta, you'll be more respectful to Odium in the near future," ordered Chao.
"Of course, my emperor," said Vindicta taking his hand away from his sword.
"Odium do not overestimate yourself like a fool," said Chao.
"Yes! My Emperor!" said Odium.
"Now go," ordered Chao as Odium vanished. "Dismissed."
Everyone began to leave the throne room. Kabuto then called for Yurina to follow him. Kabuto then pulled out a file. "This will be our next mission Yurina, try not to draw attention to yourself," said Kabuto.
"Yes, master Kabuto," said Yurina.
Leaf Mansion, Afternoon…
(Unknown Space)
I could not move. It was bright, and I was staring at some sort of light, it was blinding. Then I looked to the right and saw a man with snake like eyes wearing glasses. He was grinning down at me. He was holding some sort of needle and a small knife. I wanted to scream, but the worst part, I could not.
(Medical Room)
Then suddenly it appeared I got away and things began to lighten up. The room was bright and the someone came up to me. A green eyes blonde woman with a long pony tail. "Sakura, she's awake!" Nearby was a table full of surgical tools.
(Living Room)
Shikamaru, Sai, and Kyoji were doing paper work in the living room. Eyes tired at looking at the long streams of paper and words. "Where did all this paper work come from?" asked Kyoji.
"Just goes to show you there always work," said Shikamaru. Then BOOM! And the whole mansion shook.
"What the heck was that?" asked Kyoji activating his sharingan.
"Sounds like it came from upstairs," said Shikamaru as all three of them went upstairs and gasped at what they saw. The medical room was in ruin and frozen over like a massive blizzard hit it. Ice spikes and pillars covered the walls and floor.
"Shikamaru over here," said Sakura on one knee tending to Ino injured shoulder having an ice spike impaled.
"Ino you ok? Sakura what happened?" asked Shikamaru as all three of them came over.
"I'm fine," said Ino wincing in pain.
"The Akira woke up and escaped," said Sakura.
"That little girl did this and here I thought Akito's ice was strong" said a stunned Kyoji.
"How did she even activate a jutsu?" wondered Sai.
"Jutsu can be activated through extreme emotions," said Shikamaru
"We will worry about that later, for now we need to act. Kyoji put up a genjutsu around the mansion. Sakura, finish patching up Ino. Sai get in contact with Naruto, he's with Akito getting groceries. Then contact Hinata and Hana. I'll contact Ami and let her know what's going on. We need to find her before she hurts someone else," said Shikamaru.
"Got it, come one Kyoji," said Sasuke as he shunshin away along with Kyoji not far behind.
"What about Lee?" asked Sakura.
"I'll contact him after Ami, hopefully he's not swimming laps again," said Shikamaru.
"Shall I go after the girl after I contact Naruto and Hinata?" asked Sai.
"No, you and I will figure out how to clean this up," said Shikamaru.
Hikawa Shrine…
The four Inner Senshi were sitting around the table with their trusted furry companions as they were giving them final instructions. "Now remember to always be with Usagi at all times," instructed Luna.
"Make sure to prevent incidents," said Artemis.
"That first one is easy," said Makoto.
"The second one, not so much," said Rei.
"We'll handle it," said Minako.
"You're a disaster too Minako," said Artemis.
"Heh, heh," laughed Minako embarrassingly.
"We'll be fine Artemis," said Ami reassuring the Cats.
"Just incase we're coming along," said Artemis.
"Arty, we can handle it," said Minako.
"This is the first diplomatic mission," said Luna.
"Remember what we want," said Artemis.
"Let see," said Rei. "More Shinobi to help track down rouges. Strengthen the alliance by letting know of relationships. Usagi's right too rule."
"We don't have to convince them of that," said Makoto.
"Gaara said we did not have too," said Rei.
"Yes, but it is a good idea for Usagi to show her legitimacy," said Luna as Ami phone rang.
Ami picked up the phone and her face grimaced, then she hung up. "What's wrong Ami?" asked Rei.
"That girl, she woke up, and well," said Ami showing her pictures on the phone and which everyone saw making them gasp.
"That little girl did that," said astonished Makoto.
"Astonishing," said Minako.
"We have to find her before she hurts someone," said Rei.
"Try not to hurt her," said Artemis.
"Transform now," said Luna.
"MERCURY CRYSTAL POWER MAKE-UP!"
"MARS CRYSTAL POWER MAKE-UP!"
"JUPITER CRYSTAL POWER MAKE-UP!"
"VENUS CRYSTAL POWER MAKE-UP!"
Public Library…
In a private room with a single table. Usagi was hard at work, trying her best to read without falling asleep. Setsuna doing everything she can to prepare her for the upcoming diplomatic meeting with the five Kage.
"Princess, please pay attention," said Setsuna.
"I am," said Usagi waking up.
Setsuna sighed a bit, though Usagi made progress, the real test would still come when she faces the five Kage. Then Usagi phone began to ring.
"Hello? Right. Setsuna there trouble. We need to transform" said Usagi.
"I see," said Setsuna.
"MOON ENTERNAL, MAKE-UP!"
"PLUTO CRYSTAL POWER, MAKE-UP!"
Downtown Tokyo…
Two Hyugas were walking around town enjoying the sights. "Got to say, this city is huge?" asked Hinata.
"Wonder if the Leaf will turn into a sprawling metropolis like this," wondered Hana.
As they continued to look around, Hinata phone began to ring. "Hello," picking up her phone and her eyes widened. "We're search immediately," she said hanging up. "Hana, that girl Akira has woke up and escaped."
"What," said Hana. "We need to find her. Where do we start?"
Hinata stood their silently, then a lightbulb lit up. "Tokyo Tower close to here. We will go to the observation deck."
"What are you suggesting Hinata?" asked Hana.
"First we will need spare change," said Hinata.
Super Market…
Naruto and Akito were pushing two shopping carts worth of food. Half the groceries being instant ramen. "Naruto do we really need this much ramen?"
"What, it is the greatest gift of food for all mankind," declared Naruto.
"I'm just going to stop," said Akito as both continued to the Jeep and loaded all the groceries. Both got into the Jeep and ask Akito was about to go in reverse. Then Naruto phone began to ring.
"Hello…WHAT! We're on our way," said Naruto. "Akito, that girl woke up."
"What," gasped Akito. Naruto than showed his pictures that were sent. "What, I could not do ice jutsu of that level at that age."
"She is acting on raw emotion," said Naruto.
"That's dangerous. She could exhaust all her chakra and die," said Akito.
"Let's find her quickly," said Naruto.
Akito drove out of the parking lot fast. "We need to find her fast," said Naruto both shinobi determined to find her.
Ultra-Sushi…
"AHHHHHHH!" people were running out of the restaurant screaming trying to get out in a mass panic. Inside a deadly monster had people trapped in a net and absorbing energy.
From a hidden position, Odium was observing his gladiator in action. "The emperor will be pleased. Hmm, someone has come."
Retarus continued to absorb the energy of people caught in his net. Then a red rose flew in cutting his net. The gladiator looked at the man in Tux oddly.
"I do not know what you are, but trapping people in a net is unforgivable," said Tuxedo Mask.
The shadow gladiator charged with his trident launching a series of thrust. Tuxedo Mask drew his cane and deflected the strikes.
"Hmm, so that Tuxedo Mask. He is of no interest to me," thought Odium as he continued to observe the fight.
Tokyo Tower…
The elevator opened and the two Hyuga's walked out and headed towards the observation deck. "These telescopes will be of help. Hinata good plan," said Hana.
"Yes, these should help find her quickly," said Hinata. Both girls proceeded to the telescopes and looked out into Tokyo. Both activated their Byakugan increasing the range.
"So many networks of chakra," said Hana.
"Focus Hana, we need to find a small child with a very active chakra network," instructed Hinata. Both focused hard looking at every person searching for the girl. "Got her, I see a signature in an alleyway by Super Mart," said Hinata.
Hana turned her telescope to the Super Mart alleyway. "I see her too."
Hinata then saw two familiar signatures, "Hana, I see Haruka and Michiru. They are very near her position. "Contact them."
Super Mart Alleyway…
The cries of a girl could be heard echoing in the alleyway. The small girl was sitting against the wall. Having no idea how and what she done. Looking at her hands, wondering what she was. "What am I?" she asked. Then the memories of that night flooded back of the man with snake eyes and glasses. "Am I some sort of monster?" Unknown to her, her chakra was leaking and freezing the area.
Ultra-Sushi…
The entire restaurant was a mess. CRASH!
Tuxedo Mask landed on a table on his back, breaking it. At the shadow gladiator approached him it then halted. Then it turned and ran through the window. CRASH!
Tuxedo Mask got up aching, "Why'd it leave all of a sudden?"
"Hmm, I sense something strong. The gladiator must've sensed it," thought Odium vanishing.
Streets…
Haruka was in her car with Michiru searching endlessly for the girl. Keeping a sharp watch for the girl. "Hope we fine the poor girl soon," said Michiru.
"We will," said Haruka.
Then Michiru phone began to ring. "Yes. What she's nearby," said Michiru hanging up. "Haruka she's nearby."
"NEPTUNE CRYSTAL POWER, MAKE-UP!"
"URANUS CRYSTAL POWER, MAKE-UP!"
Super Mart Alleyway…
As the girl continued to cry away. Her eyes watering like rain, wondering where to go next. Was death even better than this world that has caused her pain. Then she heard a sound that made her look up. "Who's there?" she demanded. Then out of the shadows she saw two senshi step out in front of her.
"Hi," said Neptune approaching her. The girl backed away fearfully. "Please don't be afraid."
"Lies, you Senshi weren't there when I was beatin up by my father. Then I was experimented on by that man with snake eyes," she said angrily making Neptune and Uranus recoil.
Both were shocked at this young child's words and were saddened by them. "We here for you now," said Uranus.
"Please come along with us," said Neptune.
"NOO!" screamed Akira as she unleashed a wave of ice spikes popping out of the ground.
"Watch out Neptune," said Uranus. Both Outer jumped out of the way. Akira was freaked out at what she just did.
"Neptune, I'm sorry. We are going to have to use force," said Uranus.
"Just don't hurt her," said Neptune then began to sense something. "Wait Uranus, something is coming."
Then from atop of the building a figure came down with a trident. Both Outers got into battle stance. "What is that?" asked Neptune.
"An enemy," said Uranus.
The gladiator was looking, but then turned its attention to the girl. Then it made a run for her.
"Uranus!" cried Neptune.
"WORLD SHAKING!"
The attack sent the gladiator into the wall. "RUN!" yelled Uranus. The gladiator began to getup like it was no problem and charged Uranus.
"DEEP SUBMERGE!"
Neptune attack managed to drive it back.
The girl was in disbelief that these two were defending her. She did as she was told and began to run.
The gladiator got up and began to charge Uranus one more thrusting his trident. Uranus deflected his strikes with her Space Sword. The sound of metal began to fill the air.
From a hidden location, Odium was observing the battle in thought. "The power of these Outer Senshi is impressive, however they are of no interest to me." Then he began to sense more signatures coming. "Oh," he chuckled. "They on the other hand interest me." He vanished.
Meanwhile Rooftops…
The four Inner Senshi were jumping across rooftops trying to get to the Outers. "Mercury there an unknown creature attacking the Outers," said Hana talking to Mercury.
"I hear you, we're almost there," said Mercury.
As the Inners kept running to the scene of the battle. Sailor Mars gasped feeling the air getting thicker. Then a man appeared in front of them as they all slid to a halt. The man like figure wearing armor with a demon lion symbol on his breastplate. Skull shoulder plats wearing a helm with a black crest on top and T shape opening. Also, an overcoat over his armor with a black and purple cowl.
"Who are you?!" demanded Venus. All four them getting into battle stance.
"I'm glad you asked. We never got a proper introduction. I am Odium of the Shadow Praetorians. One who guards the Emperor," announced Odium.
"What do you want!" demanded Mars.
"Get out of our way!" yelled Jupiter.
"SPARKLING WIDE PRESSURE!"
The attack was sent flying at Odium, but then with one hand he simply hit it away. Making all the Inners gasp. "Really, is that all you have. Pathetic. You are the four princesses that the champions could not wait to return to," said Odium slightly chuckling. "I am disappointed."
"What do you mean?" asked Mercury.
"Ahh yes, the Four Champions of King Hyperion. Thalia of Venus, Autolycus of Mercury, Aeacus of Jupiter, and Phobos of Mars. I fought each in every one of them, but none of those battles were inconclusive. I remember some of their talks and hopes, of how they could not wait to return to the Silver Millennium and teach their ladies all they learned in the war," said Odium. "At least until they all died!" he began to laugh.
"You will regret what you done," said Jupiter threateningly.
"You are in no position to make threats, that last attack was weak. Aeacus would've been disappointed to know his princess was weak," said Odium. "I enjoy killing Senshi especially."
"Go ahead and try," said Venus.
"CRESCENT BEAM!"
Odium took the full brunt of the attack. "Did I get him?" wondered Venus.
"No, you did not," gasped Mercury as they all looked to see not even a scratch.
"Hmm, you just scratched my armor a bit," said Odium. "Your resitence makes me more excited I cannot wait to add you all to my collection."
"What do you mean?" asked Mars.
Odium then opened his overcoat. What was inside shocked the Inners making them gasp. They saw tiaras, circlets, and a few crowns inside his coat. "I'll be happy to add your tiaras to my collection, I have a spot opened right here," he said pointing into an upper right corner.
"You will pay!" declared Jupiter.
"Oh, that what this one said before I crushed her chest," said Odium pointing to a jeweled Tiara. "Her name escapes me at the moment, but enough talk," said Odium summoning his Warhammer. "Let's begin!" He began to charge with his Warhammer.
"Here he comes!" yelled Mars as he made it to them. They all jumped out of the way as he swung his hammer and it hit the ground sending a shockwave.
"LOVE ME CHAIN!"
Venus sent the chains and wrapped around his Warhammer as she began to try to pull his weapon out of his hands. Odium just began to laugh as he grabbed the chain of hearts. Despite getting shocked, it did not seem to faze him. He pulled Venus off the ground with a scream. He swung then her own chain and she landed hard on a generator. "Venus!" cried Mars running to her aide.
Jupiter growled a bit, "SACRED THUNDER!"
Odium dodged it. "That would've hurt," he thought. Jupiter then rushed him going in for a kick. "HEYA," she kicked. "UGH!" she shrieked in pain. Odium then wacked her with his Warhammer with the other end knocker her to the ground. As Odium brought down the hammer. Jupiter quickly rolled and dodged it.
"AQUA VIBRATION!"
"UGH!" Odium got pushed back. Then he retaliated by shooting a small dark energy ball which Mercury ducked.
"Jupiter, you alright?" asked Mercury.
"I'm fine," said Jupiter getting up.
The Odium launched a chaos ball and sent Mercury reeling. "You are all still weak, you will never achieve full power without your talismans," taunted Odium.
"CHAOS BALL!"
The ball headed towards Mars and Venus and both dodged and countered.
"SPARROW FIRE!"
"GLEAMING HEART!"
Odium this time raised one hand to put up a powerful barrier blocking the attacks. "I shall end this now as he began to gather energy in his hand.
The Inners braced themselves, but as Odium was gathering energy of chaos in his hand. Suddenly another hand grabbed it making Odium look up. "Odium, what are you doing?" asked Vincdicta whose armor was like his except for a single horn on his helmet.
Odium shot a glare at the other Centurion, "You are interrupting my revenge Vindicta," said Odium forcing his arm out of his grip. The Inners were only watching in surprise.
"Your orders were to get some energy, not to engage the enemy. The Emperor wants you to return. With this power your putting out, you will attract unwanted attention," explained Vindicta.
"LEAF HURRICANE!"
Dragon came flying in, both centurions put up a barrier the kick having no effect. Dragon jumping back doing back flips and getting into his stance.
"Dragon," said Jupiter happily.
"Sorry I'm late," said Dragon.
"We will finish this another time Senshi," said Odium as he and Vindicta vanished.
"Everyone alright?" asked Dragon.
"Aside from my aching back," said Venus.
"We're fine Lee," said Mercury.
"You arrived just in time Lee," said Jupiter.
"Let's go help the Outers," said Mars.
"Right," said everyone.
Super Mart Alleyway…
Uranus and Neptune continued to battle the gladiator with all they had. They were now managing to hold their own. The Gladaiator held out it's trident and launched purple lighting which the Outers dodged. Neptune and Uranus were standing together. Then the Gladiator launched a huge net ensnaring both, sending out electric shocks. Both yelled in pain. The Gladiator walked up ready to finish them with his trident.
"DEAD SCREAM!"
The gladiator was pushed back. Uranus used her space sword to cut out of the net. "Uranus, Neptune, you both ok?" asked Moon worriedly.
"We're fine," said Neptune.
"Finish it off," said Uranus.
"SILVER MOON POWER KISS!"
The warm pink light enveloped the gladiator destroying it. "Sailor Moon!" cried all the Inners entering.
Tuxedo Mask also jumped in, "Good job Usako."
"We need to find the girl," said Uranus getting everyone focused.
"Which way did she go?" asked Pluto.
"Hinata, where is she now?" asked Mercury on her communicator.
"She's headed towards the docks, Naruto and Akito are picking up her trail," said Hinata.
"The docks," said Mercury.
"Let's go," said Dragon. Everyone began to move.
Streets…
The Jeep was driving fast as both shinobi were on the right trail. "Naruto are we on the right track?" asked Akito driving the Jeep.
Naruto sat there communicating with Kurama. ("She's close by," said Kurama.)
"She's close, stop over there. We will go on from foot," said Naruto.
Akito gave a nod and then parked the car on the side of the road. Both Shinobi stepped out and got into their Anbu uniforms and then took off running. Eventually they came upon a Warehouse near the docks. Both walked up to Warehouse B1. "You sure she's in here?" asked Hawk.
Fox put a hand on the door handle and it was ice cold. "I'm sure, just feel the door."
Hawk touched the handle and it was real cold on a summer day. "Let's go."
Both Shinobi grabbed one handle and pulled the double doors opened and a cold win blew out. Gasping at the scene, the whole warehouse was like the Artic. "This girl has a lot of chakra," said Fox.
"I could not create this much ice when I was her age," said Hawk.
"Remember we are now here to hurt her," said Fox.
"I know," said Hawk. "Approach with caution."
"Right," said Fox. Both began to walk cautiously and on guard entering the frozen warehouse. "Akira! We don't want to hurt you" called out Fox. They both stood there for a second.
"STAY AWAY!" yelled Akira in the distance. Them suddenly large impalement spikes came out of the ground and walls rapidly.
"Look out!" yelled Fox as he and Hawk began to dodge them jumping away. After a few minutes the attack stopped. Fox sighed in relief. "Hawk, where are you?" he asked looking for him.
"Over here," answered Hawk as Fox look to see he was stuck against the wall with a large impalement spike pinning him to the wall.
"Hawk, hang on," said Fox preparing to strike.
"Wait Fox, go for the girl. I'll find a way out of this eventually," said Hawk.
"You sure?" asked Fox.
"I'm more concerned for the little girl right now. Just go. She must be really close," said Hawk.
Fox then left to find Akira in the warehouse. He then saw a room. An ice wall blocking the doorway. He went up to it and kicked it hard breaking it down. When he went in, he saw the girl huddle up in a corner. She seemed to be crying.
She then looked up and saw Fox. "Stay away from me," she warned.
"I'm not going to hurt you," said Fox putting his hands up. Then he began to walk slowly towards her.
"Don't come any closer. The world is cruel. I lost my mother. My father abused me. I was put on the streets. Put in cruel orphanages. People saw me only as a pest. Now they'll look at me like a monster. I hate this world" said Akira with some tears coming out of her eyes.
Fox stood there for a moment. This girl was almost like himself when he was a child. Fox then removed his mask. "Akira, my name is Uzumaki Naruto. I know the kind of pain you've been through. I once thought like you did. Going through abuse by the people of my village. I was alone, with no one looking out for me. I hated the world and cursed it," said Naruto as he began to walk closer.
Akira had tears in her eyes but was listening to this blond carefully.
"Then I meet people and made friends," said Naruto remembering meeting Iruka.
"Friends?" asked Akira. "No, you lie!" as ice shards flew at Naruto hitting him. Despite the bleeding, they did not even phase him as he got closer.
"I then realized that the world was not a dark, cold, and cruel place like this ice here in this room. The friends I made saved me from that dark and lonely place," said Naruto as he got close to her and knelt down to her level and putting on head on her head. Her brown eyes meeting azure blue ones. "Right now, I think you need a friend Akira," said Naruto. Then he hugged and embraced her. "Trust me, I know it hurts."
Akira then began to cry, but at the same time began to calm down. "You are not a monster," said Naruto. She began to feel woozy.
"Naruto," said Hawk coming in with Saturn.
"Is it over?" asked Saturn.
"Yea," said Naruto.
"Your voice," said Akira pointing at Hawk.
"What?" wondered Hawk.
"I remember it, it was the only thing that I could hear that wasn't cruel," said Akira feeling more light headed.
Hawk took off his mask, "My name is Yuki Akito, get some rest now Akira," said Akito. Then Akira fainted, and Naruto caught her.
"She ok?" asked Saturn.
Akito grabbed her hand and felt a pulse, "She is," said Akito.
"She needs to rest now. She exhausted a lot of chakra," said Naruto.
"I got her," said Akito picking the girl up and putting her on his back.
"By the wat Akito, how'd you get free?" asked Naruto.
"Oh, Saturn arrived and helped," said Akito.
"Well, let's get her back to the mansion," said Naruto.
Outside Warehouse…
The Senshi and two Shinobi walked out of the warehouse only to be greeted by oncoming friends.
"Naruto, Akito, Saturn!" said Moon running up to the group.
"How is she?" asked Mercury.
"She's fine," said Naruto.
"That's good," said Mercury.
"We'll take her back to the mansion and keep an eye on her," said Akito.
"Speaking of that, we got something to report," said Pluto.
Mansion, Later…
Sakura had the young girl in her arms as she took her to a room and put her to bed. Then after that she came downstairs to join the meeting with everyone gathered. "What's the new Setsuna, Ami?" asked Shikamaru.
"There was a new creature," said Setsuna.
"There were two Centurions that appeared. We overheard them saying the Emperor lives," said Ami.
Naruto just sighed.
"Was their anything else?" asked Shikamaru.
"Yes, the one that attacked us was Odium, leader of the Shadow Praetorians," said Ami.
"Must be some position," said Kyoji.
"It was strange, another centurion came and stopped him," said Rei.
"Vindicta was his name," said Makoto.
"Odium was strong, he gave me this aching back," said Minako as she groaned in a bit of pain. Then Ino put her hand on her back and began to heal it and Minako sighed in relief. "Thanks, Ino."
"No problem," said Ino.
"Hmm, sense they were gathering energy," said Setsuna.
"Then Chao must be weak right now, maybe their goal is to gather energy, so he can regain his power," said Shikamaru.
"Enemy been quite for awhile and now they pop up," said Akito.
"Let's hope Sasuke finds where their base is," said Naruto.
"I'm afraid I've had no luck," said Sasuke suddenly shunshin in the room.
"Sasuke, your back," said Sakura.
"Have you found out anything at all Sasuke?" asked Setsuna.
"Only that magic is way different from chakra. That portal they went through must lead to another dimension. One that I cannot access, or at least I am still trying to find a way around it," explained Sasuke.
"Until we can find the enemy base. Let's be ready for anything. For now, Usagi will you be ready in three days to go the Leaf Village?" asked Shikamaru.
"Yes, me, Mamaoru, Rei, Ami, Makoto, and Minako will be going," said Usagi.
"I'll also be coming along to represent the Outers," said Setsuna.
"I see. Now then, Naruto," called Shikamaru.
"Yea?" wondered Naruto.
"You are to escort Princess Serenity to the Leaf Village and back. You are in charge of there saftey," said Shikamaru taking Naruto a bit by surprise.
"Really?" said Naruto a bit excited to lead a mission.
"You may pick four other Shinobi to go with you. Except for me or Sasuke," said Shikamaru.
Naruto looked at all the Shinobi in the room. After thinking for a few minutes. "Alright, Sakura, Kyoji, Hinata, and Sai," said Naruto.
"Hmm, it'll be nice to see home again," said Kyoji.
"We're all with you Naruto," said Hinata.
"Sounds good," said Sakura.
"Usagi, wait until I so you all around the Leaf," said Naruto.
"Sounds fun," said Usagi.
The meeting finished, and small chatter went about. Hotaru stood there contemplating. "Hotaru, you should ask him," said Michiru.
"Uh," blushed Hotaru nervously.
"If you don't, I'll just ask him," said Michiru chuckling.
Hotaru then summoned up all her courage and went up to Akito, "Akito," she called shyly.
"Yes?" wondered Hotaru.
"Umm, my folks are holding a charity ball at their new building at the end of the week. Would you come to the dance with me?" asked Hotaru shyly.
"I would but I wish to keep an eye on the child," said Akito.
"Akito, go with her, I can take care of her," said Ino smiling.
"In that case Hotaru, I would be honored," said Akito.
"Break a leg you two," said Ino.
Naru's Apartment…
Naru was sound asleep in her bed. Unknown to her a figure in a black cloak with red clouds came in walking around silently. Deidara began to look at all her stuff, trying to find out more.

Unknown Location…
Mendacium was in his chamber thinking of a way of making Naru a more willing vessel for his Emperor. Then he felt Deidara come in. "What is it Deidara?"
"Something you might be interested in, hmph," said Deidara.
"Tell me," said Mendacium his red eyes gleaming.
"We recently identified Sailor Moon's identity as Tsukino Usagi. I was looking through that girl Naru. It seems that those two were best friends once, but the picture I found was turned over," said Deidara. "All she seems to have now is her boyfriend."
"Hmm, excellent, I can use this to my complete advantage," said Mendacium. "Deidara we are taking a trip to Italy."
Haneda Airport…
Naru and Umino were running through the airport. "Hurry Umino, or we will miss our flight," said Naru as both were panting trying to make their flight. Then they finally made it to the gate.
"Excuse me is this the flight to Rome, Italy?" asked Umino.
"You are both just in time, we just started boarding," said the worker.
Both were excited and proceeded to the gate. "Passes please," said the gate attendant. Both handed their passes to the lady and proceeded on board.
Unknown to them, they were being followed by a man in white shirt with a black leather jacket, with black curly hair. Then followed by a man with a long blonde ponytail wearing a Hawaiian t-shirt. Both walked to the gate and handed over their boarding passes. "Welcome aboard and enjoy your flight sirs," said the gate attendant.
"Thank you," said Mendacium as he proceeded in his disguised human form. Both he and Deidara proceeded to first class as they sat about three seats behind Naru and Umino.
"When do we strike?" asked Deidara.
"Patience my friend, you'll get your chance. For now, let's enjoy the flight," said Mendacium.
"Good day sirs, may I offer your refreshments?" asked the flight attendant.
"Yes, I'll have some green tea," said Deidara.
"Red wine," said Mendacium.
The flight attendant left to get their refreshment. "By the way Deidara, how'd you sneak your clay passed security?" asked Mendacium.
"I put them ins scrolls," said Deidara chuckling.
Naru and Umino were panting in their seat happy that they made it on time. "Oh Umino, you;ve made me the happiest woman," said Naru kissing him on the cheek making him blush.
"We are going to have a great time Naru," said Umino as they heard the engines of the plane roar.
