Meanwhile, Hotch was on his way to get the unsub with the rest of the team as JJ addressed the press. He tried not to think of the beautiful blonde haired woman and how the unsub had hurt her. He tried so hard; but he failed. He couldn't deny the pull he felt toward her, even if he didn't necessarily believe in it. When they finally arrived at the house, Hatch broke down the basement door and stormed in. He just couldn't explain his sudden urge to physically hurt this unsub. "FBI! Where are you?!" He bellowed, cocking his gun. He wanted to see this unsub for himself. Interrogating him. Nobody hurt his Serenity. Wait; where did that come from? He didn't that pretty girls name, so why did he just think that? He had a feeling this was gonna become one weird case. Reid was feeling the pull but he didn't quite understand why. He hadn't expected her question and it showed on his face. "Well um, I'm the youngest member of the BAU, Behavioral Analysis Unit." In his nervousness he started rattling off statistics about the rarity of someone like him being involved with the FBI. He also mentioned briefly his ability to perform magic, hidden amongst his rattling. Serena sat just looking between Reid and Krystal. She had this feeling that there was something between Reid and Krystal...something that hadn't quite revealed itself. Same as she felt between herself and Hotch. But she remained quiet.
Dan Green was in the basement of the house just as the team had been told by Krystal. He was still struggling in the binds that Krystal had put on him. "I'm down here!" He didn't care that it meant he was going to be arrested at this point, long as they got the stupid rings off of him. "That crazy bitch put these rings on me!" "Rings? All I see is rope." Morgan commented to Hotch as they walked in, guns still cocked and bullet proof vests clearly on them. Hotch looked into the face of the one who had hurt his serenity, and he almost shot him dead. "You're under arrest, scum." He said coldly as he put his gone back in its holster and handcuffed the man in question. On the inside though, Hotch's anger was burning. He almost couldn't control it. It was almost as if he were superhuman like the comic he used to read as a kid. "Morgan, put him in The second car. " Hotch said flatly, his expression blank. He couldn't let his emotions get in the way. Serenity was okay, that was all that mattered. He tried to take a deep breath and stay calm, but inside his mind was swirling with questions with no answers and a beautiful blonde girl. Meanwhile, Krystal was hanging on Reid's every word. He was so fascinating to her. "Magic huh? Would you show us some? I think it would help Sere feel better and I'm insanely curious." She said with her cutest flirty smile, still fighting the urge to kiss him. She still wasn't positive it was him, but the tell tale signs were there. The only other person she had ever felt this way about was her best friend eyes, but he was killed when she was only 12. Reid was to old to be a reincarnation of him. Krystal hugged her sister and stroked her hair talking telepathically. "Bunny, I'm not sure, but I think we just found our destinies."
Dan scoffed. "Then you're clearly blind. That crazy chick put these damn rings on me." He kept quiet as he was handcuffed and led out the house by Morgan. But something was stirring in him, something even darker. Reid smiled softly with a blush. "Sure." He looked around the room before grabbing a sheet of paper and an uncapped ink pen. "Watch carefully now." He held up the sheet of paper and stabbed the pen into the paper. Slowly he dragged the pen around the paper though no other tearing in the paper happened before he finally pulled the pen off the side, the paper appearing unscathed once more. Serena had perked up at the chance to watch Reid perform magic. She watched him in complete and total awe, always being so easily entertained. "That was wonderful."
She glanced at Krystal after hearing her sister telepathically. "Are you sure?" She replied the same way. "Almost positive." She replied to her sister telepathically, sensing something dark coming their way. "Crap" She swore in Lunarian, knowing that she and Sere would have to transform to protect Reid and Hotch. She held her locket transformator necklace tight, her mind swirling with strategies to quickly beat the youma. She didn't want to see Reid hurt. A memory flashed through her mind of him saving her in the past, and she grabbed his hand absentmindedly, bushing wildly. "I..I need some air. Will you bring us outside?" She asked him, still holding his hand.
Meanwhile, Hotch was almost at the station again. He had elected to drive back alone, so he could think. He had no idea why he was plagued by these thoughts of that girl... no, of his Serenity. Memories flashed through his mind and he almost hit a tree. "Shit. What in God's name is happening?" He said to himself as he regained his composure, just as they landed at the station where Reid Krystal and Serena were standing waiting for him. "Hotch, you okay? You almost hit a tree man"?!" Morgan asked concerned, his hand on the leaner man's shoulder. Hotch nodded his head, unable to say anything. On the inside, he didn't really know if he was okay or not. This was all to weird.
Serena trusted her sister. She heard Krystal swear in Lunarian and noted the grip that Krys had on her locket. She followed Krystal and Reid outside, grabbing at her own brooch as she walked behind them. She didn't want anyone getting hurt in the fight that was bound to come. She watched as Prentiss and Rossi walked inside and saw Morgan talking with Hotch before her eyes scanned around further. Dan sat in the back of the car and surveyed who all was outside. He smirked when he saw Krystal and Serena just as he was pulled out of the car. He started laughing maniacally before something swirled around him and he became an ugly red youma. "I'll have all your energy!"
Serena glanced to Krystal, knowing there was no way they could duck and transform and would just have to deal with the consequences later. "Looks like we'll have to just transform." She told her sister telepathically just before she stepped from behind Reid and Krystal. "Not if I can help it! Moon Eternal Power!" Her brooch activated and she transformed into Eternal Sailor Moon. Reid stood in complete shock as he watched Serena transform. His logic was telling him that what he was seeing was impossible and improbable. Krystal thrust herself in front of Reid, her stance one of protection. "Eternal Blue moon shadow power, Make Up!" She shouted, quickly transforming in a flash of bluish purple light. She cocked her moon sword and looked at Reid with both love and protection before throwing her shield around him. "Let us handle this you two. Just get to safety" she said, her eyes showing nothing but concern.
Meanwhile, Morgan and Hotch both stood there in shock, and Morgan dialed Garcia , putting her on a video call. "Baby girl.. there's something you should see.." he said, he's voice fuel of surprise, but not necessarily fear. Hotch just stood there, rubbing his temple a little. He suddenly felt sick. "I knew this case was gonna be weird..." he mumbled to himself, pulling his gun out instinctively. He had to help Serenity... had to keep her safe. In the meantime, Krystal was in a heated battle against the youma, not at all surprised that Dan turned out to be one. "I knew I should have moon dusted you when I had the chance..." she muttered to herself annoyed, still worrying about her sister and about Reid. It was only them. The other Senshi were back in Japan. Reid watched Krystal transform too. His level of shock only increased. Was that love in her eyes? He didn't understand it. All he knew was that things had officially gotten really interesting for this case. All he could do was watch.
Garcia picked up when Morgan rang her. "What is it dark chocolate?" It was then that she noticed he had her on video call and that Hotch was right next to him. Inwardly she groaned that once again Hotch had possibly heard one of her special greetings for Morgan only. It wasn't often though that Morgan seemed surprised about something and so she was interested.
Serena had joined the battle. "Hey we didn't know. But we'll definitely see about changing that status now." She was closer to Hotch and Morgan now, trying to keep them protected. The youma sent attacks at both Senshi, intent on taking them both down at the same time.
Hotch looked on in horror. What the hell was he supposed to do about that thing that was attacking his Serenity?! He cocked his gun and shot multiple times, not looking like he did any damage until suddenly the monster burst into flames. Had he done that? He didn't know.
Meanwhile, Morgan was showing Garcia what he was witnessing first hand. "Are you seeing what I am baby girl? He asked, looking still pretty freaked, but at the same time thrilled. He had to admit, this was pretty damn cool. Krystal shot a worried glance at her sister, and then at Reid, covering the two BAU agents with her shield. "Blue honeymoon therapy kiss!" She shouted, and in an instant the monster was only dust on the ground, blowing away in the random heavy wind. Krystal floated back down to the ground and de-transformed, almost breathless. "Its a long story, you three. But, since you've seen it first hand, you might as well know it." She said before collapsing, swearing under her breath. "Fucking anemia.."
Even Serena was surprised when the monster had burst into flames after hearing the gunshots, she was grateful all the same. Garcia was looking wide-eyed. "Oh my gosh! Is that Sailor Moon?! I thought she was fiction!" Garcia then started squealing like a fan girl. "You guys honestly have to bring both of them back with you!"
After the monster was dusted, Serena de-transformed. "It's a really long story." She gasped at seeing Krystal collapse, but that fear was subsided when Reid caught Krystal. "I keep telling you to take care of yourself Krystal." The blond sighed and tried to calm herself.
Reid looked at Krystal as he held her. "That was pretty amazing. Lets all get back inside and talk." He picked Krystal up and carried her bridal style for the door. Krystal woke a few seconds later, wrapping her arms around Reid's neck weakly: she hated this. No matter how well she took care of herself, she was still fucking anemic. It was extremely frustrating.
"Something tells me we will, baby girl. Reid looks awfully cozy with one of the girls." Morgan said with his signature smirk before hanging up the phone.
Hotch looked on kind of sadly to all this. If he couldn't even keep himself safe from whatever that thing was, how could he keep Serenity safe? That beautiful woman with such awesome power... he knew he was hers. It all made sense to him now, even if it was hard to swallow. Once he was back in the room and Krystal was safely laid down on a nearby couch in the room, Hotch spoke. "Well, this is all very amazing and weird. You two were brilliant. I wish I could have done more to help." He look at Reid and nudged him toward Krystal. Something told him she needed him right now, whether he knew it or not.
