Hey everyone. I am so, so, so, so, so , so, sorry that I haven't updated in forever. My summer got so busy with my homework and tennis I never had a chance to update. Then when school started my teachers dumped tons of stuff on us and my team ended up going to regionals! Now my year is starting to slow down so I am going to start updating on the weekends. I hope you will still continue to read. Well, here's the next chapter, enjoy!
Return of the Doom and Gloom!
Scouts Perspective
Following their transformations, the Scouts grouped together to make a plan. "Alright girls, here's the plan," Venus began, "Since the Outers can't deal blows onto the enemy, Saturn, you need to be ready near the Princess and the Prince to protect them if an attack is launched on them. Uranus, Neptune, Pluto, you need to be near us when we fight in case we need you to destroy projectiles or the illusions the girls may create. Inners, we need to hold them off until they are near each other and then we put plan T in action."
Uranus- What's plan T? I didn't think that Venus could stay on task long enough to come up with coded plans." Everyone laughed at that because Mina really was somewhat of an airhead sometimes.
Venus- Hey, remember who your leader is! But you are right, she relented, Mercury came up with that plan.
Mercury- Plan T is what we came up with long before we met you; we keep it in case of emergencies because we use our attacks that are even more powerful than our Crystal transformation attacks.
Mars and Jupiter- All right, let us fry those girls for the last time!
Meanwhile,
Parents Perspective
Ikuko- I can't believe our girls are the great protectors of Japan. However, it does explain the injuries and the grades of some of our girls dropping.
Andrew- And the fact that they stopped hanging out with Molly, Melvin, and me. They were afraid that their enemies would target us. Why don't we see if we can get some answers out of Serena and Darien?
They all turn to Darien and Serena finding them talking in hushed tones over something. "Hey, gets your hands off my daughter. I thought I already told you that!" Kenji screamed at the two.
Serena- Papa! Get off our backs. No matter what you say or do will keep Darien from me, we are destined to be together and we will be married whether you like it or not, Pluto already predicted it as well as Mars.
Kenji- What does that have to do with anything?
Grandpa- Well, I already knew Rei was Mars, she's not the only one who can read the Great Fire and if Mars has the enhanced powers of Rei, then she would be able to get glimpses of the future from the fire like myself, just stronger and more accurate. And I assume Pluto can see the future since she has said she's the Senshi of Time, correct?
Darien- Yes, that is correct. That will make the explanations a little bit easier now that you know that. And Kenji, I would never harm your daughter in any way. You will understand in just a little while how much I really love her, but to placate you now, if it came to saving the entire world or Serena, I would easily pick Serena. I would die for her, I would do anything just to make her laugh. She is my world and if she goes, then there is nothing left for me to live for.
Serena- See Papa, he loves me. Now what do you. . . Never mind there isn't time the battle is about to begin.
Neutral Perspective
Right as Serena said that, the Doom and Gloom girls flew down from the sky. "Well, look who we have here. The Sailor Failures. We killed you before, what makes you think you can win now?" they said. "We will win this time because we have each other and will fight together in the name of our Princess!" retorted Mars. And with that, the sisters formed together into a fireball and launched towards the scouts.
Mercury Aqua Rhapsody!
Neptune Deep Submerge!
With the combined water powers, the fireball was extinguished and the sisters separated. "Not so tough now huh!" Jupiter sneered.
Jupiter Oak Evolution!
Jupiter launched her attack and destroyed the stone on the leaders head which rendered them unable to use their illusions. "You'll pay for that!" The sisters flew into the ground preparing to trap the scouts in a tomb of rock. "Uranus, use your powers over wind to float us above the ground!" Venus commanded.
Uranus Air Propulsion!
Uranus manipulated the air to raise the scouts high above the ground allowing them to bypass the sisters deadly attack. After using the earth attack, the sisters were unable to use any attack for a minute and that is the chance the girls were waiting for. "Everyone, Plan T, now!"
Mercurious Bubble, Freeze! Mercury used her bubbles to freeze the sisters in place so that they couldn't move or attack. "Now girls, finish them off!" Mercury screamed. "Noo, you can't win!" The sisters shouted!
Mars Fireballs Charge, Mars Firebird Strike!
Jupiter Thunder Dragon!
Venus Meteor Shower!
And in a shower of light, crash of thunder, and burst of fire the Doom and Gloom girls were finished off once and for all. "We did it! We finally got rid of those murderers on our own power, no offense Serena." Jupiter spoke.
Serena- None taken Jupiter. I'm very proud of you for defeating them though I already knew you would.
Pluto- I still want to know how you know about this and why it would evade my powers.
Serena- Because the source behind all this is Beryl. I couldn't kill her for good four years ago because I was only a princess, and like it or not, a princess cannot destroy a queen even with the Silver Crystal.
Neptune- So how can you do it this time. You still aren't queen yet.
Darien- All in good time. Serena told me because I am part of it and Beryl and my generals will arrive soon. She and I are the only ones who are to fight. You guys must do something first before you go protect the parents.
Venus- What do we have to do? WE don't have to fight the generals do we because despite what they did to us, I want to save them. They are our soulmates after all.
Serena- Venus and Saturn must use their planetary bind on Malachite, Mars and Pluto on Jadeite, Mercury and Neptune on Zoicite, and Jupiter and Uranus on Nephrite to immobilize them and keep them out of the way of our fight. We are going to destroy Beryl even if it kills us. The time is nearly upon us save your questions for later.
Molly- Serena, what's going on? First you say that you guys are the Sailor Scouts, then you don't even tell us anything.
Serena- I'm sorry but I will be able to explain soon. The final battle is coming and only Darien and I will fight and we must be ready. Everything will be explained to you guys soon and we will answer all your questions. Rini, no matter what looks like is happening, I don't want you to say or do anything to draw attention to yourself, got it? (I forgot to mention she was there )
Ikuko- What you're going to fight with him? That is suicide. I have seen some of your fights and you need the Senshi to weaken the thing before you finish it.
Darien- Just watch. We won't be fighting in our usual fighting forms. We will become our true selves. Now Serena, let's transform and finish what should have been done long ago!
Serena pulls out her broach and Darien takes out a perfect, blood red rose and transforms.
Moon Eternal Power!
And so, Eternal Sailor Moon and Tuxedo Mask stand at the ready for the final battle with the evil that ruined their lives so long ago. What are they planning, will they succeed, how will the parents react to their true selves, only I know so stay tuned for next time in The Past Returns!
