Chapter 6 – Another Trick at the Microphone


Doremi's POV

"Hazuki-chan, you're here too?" I asked while realized that Hazuki was there, "Did Rophelia go to Karen and disguise as Majorika in front of you?"

Hazuki nodded, "Exactly, she appeared as herself at my school, and… she disguised as Majorika after I followed her to Misora Park."

"Hey! She also did it to us!" said Aiko, "I think her plan to get our Rose Crystals becomes more dangerous day by day."

"But wait a minute. Doremi-chan, how can you know that Rophelia disguised as Majorika before she trapped me and the others here?" asked Onpu, "Rophelia came to me and the others while you still accompanied Usagi-chan and the other Sailor Senshi to take their new school uniforms, right?"

"Well, actually… that was what I want to talk with you all minutes ago," I said, "Last night, I had a nightmare about Rophelia's plan for today, and… I can't believe that she really did it to you all."

"You mean… you had a nightmare that Rophelia disguised as Majorika and took over our Rose Crystals after she manipulated us?" asked Momoko. I nodded.

"However, I come here not only to help you all save your Rose Crystals, but also, to tell you all about something important," said Majorika who was still in Maho-dou with us, "Jou-sama invites you all to come to Majokai tonight, because there's something that she wants to talk with you all."

"Uh, excuse me," replied Usagi, "Should I and the other Sailor Senshi go to… Majokai with you all?"

"Actually, all of you who know about the Rose Crystals should go there tonight," said Lala, "Jou-sama also wants to meet you five."

"Oh, alright!" the blonde haired girl then quickly ran out from Maho-dou, "See you in that Majokai tonight!"

"Ah, Usagi-chan…" I tried to stop her, but I couldn't. She had already ran away, probably went home to her house.

"Mou. She even doesn't ask about the way we can go to Majokai…" sighed Rei, "I wonder, what will she do right after she arrive at our house…"

"All of you just need to come here tonight, then we'll go there from here," explained Majorika, "Just make sure that you all won't come late here tonight."

"We'll try," said Ami.

"Anou…" Kotake interrupted. Probably because everyone had ignored him for some minutes, "Should I also come here with you all tonight?"

"Ah, sou ka," I said, "Majorika, should…"

"WE SAID TO YOU THAT ALL OF YOU WHO KNOW ABOUT THE ROSE CRYSTALS SHOULD GO THERE TONIGHT!" shouted Majorika, "Of course, your boyfriend also should come. Don't ask a stupid question to me."

"Oh, well…" I sweatdropped, "I just make sure that you also mention him…"

"Then, why don't we go there right now?" asked Hazuki, "Does Jou-sama have some business to do right now?"

"Jou-sama said that she needed to do something before she met you all tonight," this time, Lala explained, "As a Queen, she has so many things to do."

"So, what'll you both do until the time we go there?" asked Aiko, "It's still some hours later, right?"

"Well, I think we want to meet Ririka-mama for a few hours," said Majorika, "We'll go there by magic, so we can come back here on time."

We then realized that it was 05.00 PM right now, so we decided to go home, while Majorika and Lala went to Majoririka's house with their magic.

Ami's POV

Night, at 09.00 PM…

Doremi had already called us and told that I and the other Sailor Senshi should come there right now, but there was one problem which made us stayed at home a bit longer…

No, it wasn't because of Rophelia. She even didn't come here now, and it was so impossible if she came here, as her target weren't us. Her target were the Majo Senshi.

The problem was Usagi, because she was sleeping since she arrived at home, and until now, she didn't wake up yet.

"Usagi-chan," I called her, "Doremi-chan tachi are waiting for us at Maho-dou."

"Sssh, don't make a noise, Ami-chan…" said her in her sleep, "We should keep walking so that we can arrive to that Majokai and meet them."

"Mou, you're really…" Rei took a deep breath then shouted, "USAGI-CHAN, MAJOKAI ISN'T A DREAM WORLD! WE JUST CAN GO THERE THROUGH MAHO-DOU!"

"Eh?!" Usagi's eyes opened widely, "Then, we should go to that shop… again?!"

Makoto sighed, "I can't believe that you think we should sleep to go there… in our dreams…"

"Well, I just feel a bit hesitate about that Majokai things, as… it's a bit unbelievable for me," Usagi rubbed her head, "Anyway… I'll change my clothes for a few minutes, then we go there after that. Can I?"

"Of course you can, Usagi-chan. Just make sure that you won't be too long," said Minako, "You just need to be as fast as the lights."

"Uh, I'll try," replied her, then she changed her clothes, and after she was ready, we went to Maho-dou, along with Luna and Artemis who wanted to accompany us there.

At Maho-dou, Doremi and her friends had already waited for us.

"Mou, osoi na…" protested Doremi, "What things that make you all so late like this?"

"Ah, gomen ne, Doremi-chan. It's because of me," Usagi apologized, "I don't understand if we… should come here to meet you all before we go to Majokai together."

"In the other words, she thought that we could come there by dreaming," Rei gazed at her, "I can't believe that she could think about something like that."

"Well, at least… all of you come here," said a white cat who was stood up beside Majorika in a familiar voice – but it wasn't Artemis, "Let's we go to Majokai through Maho-dou's back door."

"Hey!" I realized her voice, "Are you Lala? But… how can you change your form as a… cat?"

"Well, it's the fairy's disguise form in the human world," she explained, then turned her attention to Luna and Artemis, "Then, are you those two cats from the Moon's Kingdom? I mean… from the Silver Kingdom?"

"Uh, yes we are," answered Artemis with a heart mark on each of his eyes, "You're looked so beautiful."

"Artemis…" Luna warned him, "Do you want to do something which forces me to punish you?"

"Ah, don't get it wrong. I just want to become near with her, but not as near as when I'm with you," corrected Artemis, "I'm just loving you. Really…"

"Alright. I trust with you," Luna sighed.

"Uh… I think it's better if I change back to be my normal form," said Lala while she changed back, "I don't want to make any of you quarrel."

"Sore jaa, let's we go," said Majorika, "Jou-sama is waiting for us."

Then we went to Majokai by passing through the back door of Maho-dou. We walked for a while until we arrived at a big castle. We then enterred a large hall where Jou-sama, the Queen of Majokai, was waiting for us.

"I'm glad that you all can come here," said the Queen. She then asked Kotake, "Kotake-kun, did Doremi-chan tell you about me?"

"Yeah, she told me about you," replied him, "Glad to see you again, Yuki-sensei."

"Eh? What does it mean?" asked Usagi, "You both just recently meet each other, but… but it seems like, you both had already knew each other."

"That's because Jou-sama had ever disguised as a school's nurse in Misora Elementary, when we studied there," Doremi explained, "Jaa, Jou-sama, what things that you want to talk about?"

"Well, it's about your Rose Crystals. The six Rose Crystals which are hidden in your body," Jou-sama started to talk, "I know that some of the demons called the Rose Crystal Catcher are chasing after your Rose Crystals, and… I just want to warn you all to don't let them get your Rose Crystals, or else, it will be a serious and dangerous things for you all."

"For example?" asked Onpu.

"As those Rose Crystals also contain all of your good feelings beside your Majo Senshi's power, if the Rose Crystal Catcher could take over your Rose Crystals, the owner of the crystal would lost all of her – or his – feelings. All but cold and despair," said the Queen, "and with just that two feelings which left inside you, they could influence you to join with them."

"Ah, it's really just like what I felt when Rophelia had ever took over my Rose Crystal last Saturday," said Doremi, "Strangely, Rophelia didn't do anything to influence me to join with the Rose Crystal Catcher."

"Maybe, she isn't the one who can influence you all to be demons," guessed Jou-sama, "but Majorin reported to me that one of them could influence you all."

"Majorin-san?" asked Hazuki.

The Queen nodded, "I commanded her to investigate all about them, and the result is that: there is one of them who could influence you all once he or she got your Rose Crystals."

"He or she?" Aiko didn't understand, "Jou-sama, it means…"

"That's right, Aiko-chan," said Jou-sama, "the Rose Crystal Catcher have a male demon as its leader, and the other members are female demons, including Rophelia."

"Do you mean that one from the leader and the another member beside him and Rophelia is the one that could influence us?" asked Onpu, "Then, what can we do to protect our Rose Crystals?"

"All of you just need to beware of them, as they can be so dangerous for you all."

"We'll be more careful to protect those crystals from them," replied Doremi, "I would never forgive myself if they could take over my Rose Crystal again."

The other Majo Senshi nodded.

"Anou, there's something that I want to ask to you, though…" said Momoko, "Jou-sama, can I ask you about something?"

"Of course you can, Momoko-chan," said the Queen, "What do you want to ask?"

"Well, why don't I and Onpu-chan get our usual respective colors as our present respective colors?" asked the girl with the emerald eyes, "Jou-sama, do you know about the reason?"

"That's because you both should have costumes in the same color with your partners' costumes," explained her, "but I promise that it won't be too long, because someday, both of your partners will get their new costumes. In the other words, their eternal costumes."

"So, is it true that all of my friends will also get their eternal costumes, like me?" asked Usagi.

"That's right."

The Queen then turned her attention to Doremi, "Then, I think I just want to say it to you all. All of you can go home now, except you, Doremi-chan."

"Uh, me?" asked Doremi, "Then, what should I do here?"

"Well, there's something that I want to talk about with you," said the Queen, "Can you stay here a bit longer?"

"Uh… okay," finally, she said. She then turned her attention to me and the others, "Minna, all of you can go home now."

"Is it okay?" asked Kotake, worriedly, "You'll go home alone, and… I'm afraid if that Rophelia…"

"She won't ever get any chance to take over my Rose Crystal again, because I won't ever let it happen," cut her, "I'll be more careful."

"Well, even if you say so… I don't want to leave you alone anymore. I'm afraid that what happened in that forest last Saturday will be repeated."

"Daijoubu yo," this time, Jou-sama replied, "We'll make sure that Doremi-chan will be alright when she goes home later. Rophelia won't ever come here."

"Oh, alright. I believe that you'll protect her," Kotake gave up, "See you tomorrow, Doremi."

The red haired girl nodded, "Mata ashita ne?"

Doremi's POV

"Then, Jou-sama," I started our conversation when the others had already left the castle, "What do you want to talk with me? And why do you command the others to leave us first?"

"Actually, I want to talk about the Ultimate Royal Stage," replied her, which made me a bit shocked, "I know that Celine gave some of her power to Angelica in the previous timeline, and… I also know that Celine let Angelica to assume you as her reincarnation."

"Eh? So… you still remember about what happened in the previous timeline?" I asked, "and… you also know about the truth behind that reincarnation things?"

She nodded.

"But why? Why did you say to me that I was Angelica's reincarnation if you know that it wasn't the truth? If actually… you know that I…"

"I know all of those things, but I also have some reasons to hide it from you and the others," answered her, "About the reincarnation things, I knew about it right after I told you about it in our meeting at Maho-dou, right after you five became the fighter witches at the first time."

Before I could say anything, Jou-sama added, "Celine came into my dream right after I said to you that you were Angelica's reincarnation, and she explained everything there, including about the formed of the Rose Crystals."

"She told you about all of those things?" I said, "but why did you hide all of them?"

"Well, I just wanted to make sure that the incubator would really change his contracts to the Puella Magi," said her, "This way, he would give up to us and also… he would accept the 'win win solution' that I offered to him."

"Oh, alright," I sighed, "Then, can I know about… the formed of the Rose Crystals?"

"Of course, you can," replied her, "Originally, those Rose Crystals just recently formed in you and the other's body."

Jou-sama kept silence for a few minutes, then continued, "At first, Celine and the other four witches who were you and the other's past lifes were some fighter witches, and not the Majo Senshi."

"Then, how could they get their Rose Crystals and become the Majo Senshi?" I asked, "and how about the Rose Crystals in me and the others?"

"One day, when they tried to protect their respective place – moon for Celine and their respective planets for the others, three demons successfully defeated them and nearly took over the moon and the inner planets, but fortunately, Princess Serenity and the other past life of the Sailor Senshi could defeat those demons and help them save all of those places."

"Did Celine and her friends get some serious wounds?"

Jou-sama nodded, "Even they almost died, if only Serenity and her friends didn't try to heal them with their powers."

"They healed them?"

"Well, we can say that they healed Celine and the others, and when they healed them, they also transferred some of their energy to make two of them who had the same respective place would have the same amount of power, and it formed the Rose Crystals in the process."

"Ah, wait a minute!" I realized something, "Jou-sama, you said that Celine and her friends protected their respective places from three demons? Does it mean that those three demons are… the Rose Crystal Catcher?"

"Your guess is right, Doremi-chan," answered her, "When they realized that Celine and her friends' power increased because of the forming of the Rose Crystals, they started to chase those crystals, but then…"

"They never got it until the big war in the Silver Kingdom happened?" I guessed, and once again, Jou-sama nodded.

"Those crystals were broken when they were killed in the war."

"Then, how can it formed inside me and the others now?" I asked, "Did something happen that make all of those crystals reappeared?"

"It was when we did that Ultimate Royal Stage," explained her, "As your enemies changed from the Magi Monsters to the demons, your heart formed the Rose Crystal inside you, as Celine and her friends still had a hope that they could defeat the Rose Crystal Catcher, of course, in their present life – you and your best friends."

"You mean, once they felt that I and the others were fighting demons, their hope appeared in me and the other's heart and… changed its form to be the Rose Crystals?"

"That's right."

"Then, how about Kotake's Rose Crystal? I mean, he never becomes the fighter witch – or wizard, but he also has the Rose Crystal. How can it happen?"

"That's another story," replied her, "Coincidentally, prince Endymion also healed Anthony, his stepbrother, after those three demons attacked the earth."

"What? So… the Rose Crystal Catcher also attacked the earth," I said, "Well, not surprisingly, though… they did want to take over the universe, and… it must be including earth, right?"

"Then, also coincidentally, Endymion had a crush on Serenity while Anthony had the same feeling towards Celine," Jou-sama sighed, "They also shared their power indirectly, from the love that they felt."

I smiled, "Now I understand why you just tell it to me."

Then, Jou-sama allowed me to go home.

Onpu's POV

"Err… is my new skirt too short?" asked Usagi when all of the Sailor Senshi met with me, Doremi, Aiko and Momoko at school, in our class before the bell rang and we started the class. She added, "Well, even though I wear a miniskirt in my Sailor Senshi form, I didn't use to wear it for my school uniform."

"Uh, me too," said Ami, "Although it's just a bit above the knees, but still…"

"Daijoubu yo. I think your skirt isn't too short for a school uniform," I said, "See? We also wear the same skirt with you all, and we still feel comfortable with it."

"Maybe, you just need some adaptation for that ones," added Doremi, "The most important thing is that you five finally can wear the same school uniform like us."

"Well, maybe you're right, Doremi-chan…" Usagi sighed, "Maybe, I should see it in that point."

"By the way, Doremi-chan, I think I should ask you one thing," I sat down on my seat and started to ask, "Actually, what were you talking about with Jou-sama last night?"

"Uh, well… she just said about the history of the Rose Crystals, and nothing more," said her, "but she also said to me that I should make it as a secret for you all, at least, for now."

"Oh, alright," I sighed, "I think she wants to talk more about me and Momo-chan's Majo Senshi's costumes…"

"Onpu-chan, Jou-sama had already said to you and Momo-chan to be more patient," said Aiko, "I'm sure that your costume color will change like you want someday."

"I think it's better if we talk about your job now," suggested Doremi, "You must be so busy this week, right?"

"Well, not really," I answered, "I just have some photo shoots today, then a press conference this Friday for my new movie and… a recording for my radio show on Sunday."

"Sunday?" asked Momoko, "Moshikashite, is it Sunday Pururun?"

I nodded, "The producer wants to remake that show to become more fit for teenagers, and this Sunday is the first airing of the remake."

"Wow! I think it will be so cool," commented Momoko in English, "I'm looking forward for that show."

"Arigatou," I smiled, "Then, can you all accompany me to the radio station this Sunday? This week's theme is friendship, so… I want if you all become the guests star there."

"Hmm…" Doremi thought, seriously, "This Sunday, huh?"

"Eh?" I was afraid that she couldn't come, "Uh, actually, that's okay if you can't be the guest star in my show…"

"Well, how can we say it…" Aiko also put her right hand on her chin, "Nichiyoubi ya na…"

"Oh, please. I'll be glad even though it's just one of you who can come there," I begged, "Don't say that all of you can't come there…"

"In this case, I just can say one thing," said Momoko while she bowed her head and crossed her arms, "This Sunday…"

Three of them smiled and shouted, "Of course, we can come there, Onpu-chan!"

"Huh, you three…" I sighed, "I think you all would say that you couldn't come…"

"Of course not, Onpu-chan," said Doremi, "Because we're best friends, right?"

I giggled, "I should be knowing about it first."

I then turned my attention to the Sailor Senshi, "Then, how about you five? Can you all come to the radio station with us?"

"Well, I wanted to, but I can't," replied Usagi, "My family will come this Sunday."

"I have a plan to go to the library this Sunday, so… I can't come to your show," said Ami.

"Jaa, Rei-chan, Mako-chan to Mina-chan wa?" I asked.

"Uh, I have a self-defense training, so…" Makoto apologized, "I also can't come there."

"Well, it sounds interesting for me," said Minako, "As I really want to become an idol, I think… it doesn't wrong if I come to your show."

"Really?" I said.

Minako nodded, "Who knows if someday, I'll be an idol like you."

"Yatta ne?" I smiled, "Rei-chan wa?"

"I think I have free time this Sunday," replied the black haired girl, "I'll come with you all."

As she finished to say it, the bell rang.

.O.

Sunday…

I and the others who had agreed to come were at the Misora FM radio station – including Hazuki whom I asked yesterday, got ready to record the show. Unexpectedly, Rei said to me that she felt something wrong with the microphone which was in the studio, and after I did the recording for a few minutes, all of the radio staffs fell asleep!

"What's going on here?" I asked.

"The microphone!" Rei warned, "Minna, stay away with that microphone! I sense a bad things there."

"Well, you guess it right, smart girl," said Rophelia who then appeared in front of us. She then revealed the microphone as one of her ropes, "As I've already gave you all a long break this week, it's time for me to end that peaceful day."

"We won't ever let it happen!" shouted Doremi, "Minna, let's we transform!"

I and the others nodded, then we transformed and got ready for the next fighting with Rophelia.

"Moon's Witch Power, Make Up!"

"Mercury's Witch Power, Make Up!"

"Venus' Witch Power, Make Up!"

"Mars' Witch Power, Make Up!"

"Jupiter's Witch Power, Make Up!"

Doremi's transformation sequence: After the Senshi Tap became a bright light on her right hand, she swung her left hand around her right wrist. She then did the same to her left wrist with her right hand, made her gloves appeared. She then swung both of her hands around her feet, changed her shoes with her pink boots. She also did the same to her upper body, made her leotards appeared, then hold her left hand with her right hand, made a pink skirt appeared with a piece of long purple ribbon behind it. She tapped both side of her chest and made a pink collar appeared, along with a purple bow ties with a yellow crescent shaped brooch on the middle of the bowties, and at last, she stretched both of her hands. In an instant, a pink crescent shaped mark appeared on her forehead, along with a pair of yellow crescent shaped earrings and a necklace with pink ribbon and yellow crescent shaped pendant. Her hair also tied like Usagi's hairstyle.

Aiko's transformation sequence: She hold her Senshi Tap with her right hand and put it on her left wrist, made it change to be a small whirlpool which covered both of her arms. She then stretched both of her hands, appearing her long gloves. She then swung both of her hands around to the same direction to cover her body with the larger whirlpool, and when the whirlpool was gone, her clothes had already changed to be her costume, which was a leotards with blue skirt with a piece of short green ribbon behind it and blue collar with green bow ties, along with her boots, a necklace with blue ribbon and yellow round pendant, a pair of yellow small earrings and a tiara. Her crystal was on her golden tiara.

Hazuki's transformation sequence: She hold her Senshi Tap with both of her hands and put it on her chest while she closed her eyes. She then opened her eyes and made her Senshi Tap change to be orange lights which covered both of her arms. She then swung both of her hands around to the opposite direction to cover her body with a long piece of orange bright ribbon. Hazuki then moved both of her hands to the both side of her body and made her gloves appeared, and when the bright ribbon was gone, her costume appeared, which was a leotards with orange skirt with a piece of short pale orange ribbon behind it and orange collar with pale orange bow ties, along with her high heels, a necklace with orange ribbon and yellow heart shaped pendant, a pair of yellow heart shaped earrings and a tiara. Her crystal was on her golden tiara.

Onpu's transformation sequence: She hold her Senshi Tap with her right hand and swung her left hand on it, made some small fireballs appeared around her body. She then pointed her Senshi Tap forward, under the small fireballs, and then swung it around and made it change to be a fire ring which appeared under the small fireballs – the fire ring was larger than the circle of the small fireballs. Both of the fire ring and the circle of the small fireballs then expanded its height while Onpu crossed her arms, covered her body, and when both of the fire circles disappeared, it revealed her gloves, her costume which was a leotards with red skirt with a pale purple short legging inside it and a piece of short pale purple ribbon behind it and red collar with pale purple bow ties, along with her high heels, a necklace with red ribbon and yellow round pendant, a pair of yellow small earrings, a pale purple ribbon on her untied hair and a tiara. Her crystal was on her golden tiara.

Momoko's transformation sequence: She hold her Senshi Tap with her right hand and raised it to the sky, made it change to be a yellow bright light which covered all parts of her body, and when the bright light disappeared, it revealed her gloves, her costume which was a leotards with green skirt with a piece of short yellow ribbon behind it and green collar with yellow bow ties, along with her boots, a necklace with green ribbon and yellow star shaped pendant, a pair of yellow star shaped earrings and a tiara. Her crystal was on her golden tiara.

"Witchi Senshi Doremichii!"

"Witchi Senshi Aikochii!"

"Witchi Senshi Hazukichii!"

"Witchi Senshi Onpuchii!"

"Witchi Senshi Momokochii!"

"Uh, stop that small talk in front of me! Just give me your Rose Crystals!" said Rophelia.

"Do we need to tell you once again that we won't ever let you to get our Rose Crystals?" I replied, "Don't you even try to take those Rose Crystals from us! Magical Fire Beams!"

When I attacked Rophelia, Momoko also launched her attack, "Magical Lightning Bullet!"

Because of our attack, Rophelia fell, but it didn't stop Doremi, Hazuki and Aiko to give her their finishing attacks.

"Now, I'm so sure that I had already sharpened this for you!" Aiko shouted, "Take this! Magical Water Blade!"

"I think you need some love to activate your heart," commented Hazuki, "Magical Lovely Ring!"

"Missing my rod's attack?" Doremi smirked, "Don't worry. You'll get it. Magical Sparkling Star!"

Once again, we could defeat her, even without let her took over our Rose Crystals.

And of course, after Rophelia left us, we could record my show smoothly, without any incidents…


Author's Note: Yippe! Finally, I can type a long chapter here!

Next chapter will talk about something important for the girls. No, it's not about the Rose Crystals, but about something else. What is it? Find it out soon.
