Chapter 6 The Encounter in Juuban Park

Apartment Night…

The sudden news from Hana caused Akito and Kyoji to freeze for a moment, but they regained their composure, "Hana, have a seat," instructed Akito as she move to sit down on a couch, while Akito and Kyoji sat on the opposite one.

"What's the news from Lord Hokage?" asked Kyoji.

Hana sat their thinking for a moment but then, "Sigh, where to start," pausing for a moment as her two shinobi comrades waiting in anticipation. "More portals have begun to appear in our world, not only that, those Youma have also started to slip through gathering energy in the Five Great Nations." "The shinobi of those land have begun to set guards to watch the portals and have successfully located and defeated the Youma, now the Five Kage will have another big meeting to discuss how to counteract the growing threat."

"This news is troubling," said Kyoji.

"Looks like the shit pile is getting bigger to clean up," said Akito. "So how does all this involve us now? asked Akito.

"A new objective now is to establish a base on this world as central operation command for the Allied Shinobi Force, and coordinate with our allies, they will enter the portals and establish operations of their own, then we connect with one another to counter act the Dark Kingdom worldwide," explained Hana. "Have you both heard from Sasuke?" asked Hana.

"We haven't heard from him since he left us here for our mission," replied Kyoji.

"What is the status of the Sailor Senshi?" asked Hana.

"From what we have gathered, they are not evil, nor working with the Dark Kingdom, however, trusting them is still a question for me," said Akito.

"Come on Akito, I know you have a hard time trusting people, heck even during the war, you barley trusted the other shinobi during the war, least until the end of the war," said Kyoji.

"Kyoji do I need to remind you about the time you got backstabbed and left for dead by those shinobi from the stone several years ago," said Akito, "You were lucky that Kiba and Shino found you."

"I said I would be more careful next time," shot back Kyoji.

"Enough you two!", shouted Hana as she settled her two comrades down, "Listen since they are not evil as you say Akito, we have order from Lord Hokage to contact them," said Hana calming down.

"Meeting with them will be, dicey," said Akito. "A plan to meet them which we will discuss tomorrow."

"Agreed, I had a long trip trying to find this place," said a yawning Hana.

"We have a third room, you can take that one," offered Kyoji.

"Thanks," said Hana as she got up as well as her two friends.

"We will talk more in the morning, right now we can all use some rest and cool our heads," said Akito.

"Agreed," said Kyoji.

The three-shinobi smiled and went to their separate rooms to turn in for the night knowing that had much more work to do ahead of them.

(Akito Room)

Akito was sitting in his bed ready to turn in for the night, "That girl Hotaru, she a kind one, wonder if she likes me, if that's the case, I'm not someone who deserves a nice girl like her," thought Akito.

(Kyoji's Room)

Kyoji was in the middle of sharpening some kunai, "Akito, what is with you and trusting people, was it your days as Akito the Blood Ice." Thought Kyoji continuing the sharpen his weapons.

Leaf Village, Hokage Office…

It was morning in the Leaf and Lord Sixth was with Shikamaru at his side were having an important conversation with a man with spikey blonde hair with whisker marks, and blue eyes in the Hokage office.

"So anyways that's the situation, if things start to get out of hand, that team will need you and the reinforcements, so I want you to be ready to leave at a moment notice, as well as your team," said Kakashi.

The blonde man simply nodded and gave his signature thumbs up, then turned and left the office.

"Well, he's ready for anything like always," said Shikamaru.

"Yes, he is, anyways Shikamaru, I'll be sending you as well," said Kakashi.

"I saw this coming," said Shikamaru unsurprised.

"While I believe Akito is capable for this mission, things are going to escalate, and it will call for someone who is better experienced at seeing a big operation that I am going to propose at the Summit today," said Kakashi.

"I like your plan, but you sure the other Kage will agree?" asked Shikamaru.

"I'm sure," replied Kakashi.

"Sense you are going to send me at some point, besides me and Naruto, we are going to need more," said Shikamaru.

"I agree, here is a list of others who you can take, you may take five more making it a total of seven of you," said Kakashi handing over the list to Shikamaru.

Shikamaru took the list and looked over it more carefully to decide who would be best for this mission, "Well Sakura is a definite, her medical ninjutsu is invaluable in any mission, as for the rest, I'm going to think them over, along with Akito, Kyoji, Hana, the possibility of Sasuke being around, and these Sailor Senshi by the initial reports we got that they don't appear to be the enemy."

"You have plenty of time Shikamaru," said Kakashi.

The office door came open as a Shinobi walked in, "Lord Hokage,"

"Please drop the Lord," said Kakashi.

"Lord Kazekage and Lord Raikage have arrived, the Tsuchikage and Mizukage will arrive shorty," said the ninja.

"Good," said Kakashi getting up to go to the Summit, before going out the door, "Shikamaru, choose whoever think is best for the upcoming mission," instructed Kakashi as he left the office.

Shikamaru looked over the list the smiled, "Well I know one person I'm going to ask," as he left the office to gather people for the upcoming mission.

Dark Kingdom…

The four King's o Heaven as well as Kabuto were holding a meeting to discuss their next move against the Senshi and Shinobi. "Well Jedeite, you failed at gathering energy at all," said Kunzite pointing a finger at him.

"If it weren't for the Senshi, I would have a bundle loads of energy to revive Queen Beryl as well as help our great ruler," said Jedeite making excuses. "It's not like you three haven't gathered energy."

"On the contrary we have," said Nepherite.

Catching Jediete by surprise, "Since when?"

"Ever since you started your plan in Tokyo, we have been sending Youma to the other world, as well as major cites around the globe, New York, London, Rome, and so on," said Zoisite.

"You see, since these Shinobi and Senshi are concentrated in Juuban, we are free to gather energy in other places, and we are now getting closer to bringing back your Queen Beryl," said Kabuto smiling cuasing the other generals to smile also.

"Then I shall go with my plan to gather energy in Tokyo to keep the Shinobi and Senshi busy," said Kunzite as he vanished.

Hikawa Shrine…

The five Senshi were gathered for an important meeting along with Luna and Artemis. "Alright, first off there are two ninjas," said Rei.

"How many of them are their really?" wondered Makoto.

"Who knows," replied Minako.

"Ami, anyways we can track them down?" asked Rei.

"No, these ninjas cover their own tracks well," replied Ami.

"I still wonder how long they were there?" wondered Makoto. "They could've been studying us, trying to learn our strength and weaknesses.

"That's a possibility, ninja are assassins, they could be looking to assassinate Usagi," said Rei.

"Rei, I don't think of them going that far, wouldn't they have done it by now," said Minako.

"Usagi you been too quiet what do you think?" asked Luna.

"I don't know, although I do not consider them enemies, because they did save us last night, when they took out the speakers," said Usagi.

"You have a point," said Ami.

"Girls, now that you know there are two ninjas, be on guard, and you have all come a long way," said Artemis.

"I agree, there is really nothing more we can teach you, even you Usagi," said Luna.

"Luna, that's one of the nicest things you've ever said," smiled Usagi.

"What!" exclaimed Luna, "I have said plenty of nice things before," said Luna. "Anyways until then, their really nothing else we can do until the next Youma shows up."

"That's right who knows when the enemy will attack again," said Artemis.

"Hold on, those ninjas appear when a Youma does, so let's try to contact them when a Youma attacks again," suggested Ami.

"That's if Rei doesn't scare them off again," said Makoto.

"Hey Mako, I was just a little mad that's all," said Rei with a vein on her head.

"Anyways, all we can do now is wait," said Minako.

"For now, let's return to normal lives until the next attack," said Artemis as everyone nodded in agreement.

The girls got up and began to the leaves the shrine, some with afternoon classes, cram school, or even charity. Rei went to her fire and began to chant to see if she can find the ninja's identities or of their new enemy.

Apartment…

The three shinobi were enjoying a bright morning ready to plan their next move as they sat down drinking their coffee.

"Alright first, how do we talk to the Senshi?" asked Kyoji as the three-shinobi sat down thinking and sipping their coffee.

"We could meet them after a battle, though who knows when that will be and whether they trust us?" suggested Akito.

"You two know who they are, why not send them a message?" suggested Hana.

"Not sure if they would agree to meet us, due to that one in the red fuku," said Kyoji.

"Guess after a battle and help them openly would be the best," said Akito sipping some coffee, "For now let's focus on our next part of the mission, we need to find a new base of operations, this apartment room is not exactly the best for a real base on this world."

POOF!

A puff of smoke appeared with Swift appearing with a bump on his head. "Hey guys, message from Lord Hokage," said Swift.

Akito immediately took the scroll and began reading it, "Hmm, it seems Lord Hokage has another Anbu team coming here, he wants us to give them necessary equipment to establish themselves so they can begin disrupting the Dark Kingdom somewhere in this world," said Akito, digging through the envelop to find Anbu photos, "Alright we can make what we need with these pictures, that team will be here in a few days," added Akito, "Question is now, what city in the world do we send them too?"

"How about Beijing, China, its close, read something this morning about unusual energy drains, possible Dark Kingdom activity," suggested Hana.

"Find with me," said Akito turning his head to Swift, "What happened to your head Swift" as Akito began to chuckle as well as the other two Shinobi.

Swift turned blue in the face, "Uh, I appeared before Lady Tsunada all hyper," said Swift in fear, as the three-shinobi were giving him some sympathy. "I'll see you guys," said Swift as he vanished in smoke.

"Alright, I'll take care of this Anbu team information, all they need, plus the plane tickets," said Akito.

"We still need to find a suitable base," said Hana, "leave it to me I'll find it." Hana standing up.

"I'll help you Hana," said Kyoji.

"What about those reinforcements Akito?" asked Hana.

"I do not think we need them yet, this Dark Kindom tough, but the Akatsuki were much worse," said Akito as everyone nodded in agreement. "Alright let's get going, I'm headed to the post office," said Akito.

"And me and Hana will check real estate," said Kyoji smiling.

"Good luck to you both," said Akito.

"Same to you Akito," said Hana as all three Shinobi headed to the door.

Hikawa Shrine…

Rei was sitting in front of the fire chanting and forming signs, then asked a question, "Show me who the ninjas are?" Instead of getting faces, she got only the masks of three ninjas. "Huh, that didn't work, although there seems to be three now," thought Rei. "She then asked, who is our enemy?" she asked the fire as it showed an image of a red hooded man and then a darkness, but as Rei continued to look another darkness appeared behind it seemingly overtaking it then she started to feel anger, hatred, and malice as it began to choke the very air, then she saw something appear in the flames, a dark figure with red eyes and it began to reach a clawed dark hand toward her. "What is that?" she asked in fear as she was now shaking.

(With Hana and Kyoji)

The two shinobi were approaching the shrine, "So Kyoji why are we here?" asked Hana.

"Heard they sale good luck charms here, so I thought it wouldn't hurt to buy one," he answered as they were walking up the steps then…

"AH!"

"Someone's in trouble," said Kyoji activating his Sharingan.

Hana also activated her Byakugan as well, "Kyoji there a woman in that building over there but nothing seems to be there," pointed Hana.

"That's Rei, let go help," said Kyoji as he started to run with Hana close behind.

"One of the Senshi?" asked Hana.

"Yes," he replied.

(Back with Rei)

Rei was on the floor in fear, panting and sweating, she never felt so much concentrated negative emotions before, then she heard the door open behind her and turned to see Kyoji and a girl with him.

"Rei are you, all right?" asked a worried Kyoji as he walked over to help her up.

"I'm fine, thank you," Rei turned her eyes to the girl, "Who is this Kyoji?" asked Rei.

"I am Hyuga Hana," said Hana extending her hand to Rei.

"Nice to meet you," said Rei, "What with her eyes, is she blind?" thought Rei.

"Did something happen here Rei?" asked Kyoji.

"No, just some trouble with the fire that's all," said Rei. "So, what brings you to the shrine?"

"Heard this place sells good luck charms," answered Kyoji.

"How about some tea and a charm," offered Rei.

"Sounds good," said Kyoji as he followed Rei out.

Hana was leaving with them but turned to check the room with her Byakugan, "Huh," her eyes widened, "Something was here, something very scary," thought Hana as she was shaking a little.

"Hana," called Kyoji, "You are coming?" asked Kyoji.

"On my way," she said as she came right out.

Post Office…

Akito was working on papers at a table and then planned to meet with his two comrades later, "Ehh, so much paper work," thought Akito.

"Hi, Akito," said an unknown yet familiar shy voice.

Akito turned to see that it was Hotaru, "Oh hi Hotaru, what are you doing here?" asked Akito.

"I was here to mail something today," said Hotaru, as she was hiding a pink love letter in her pocket. "Should I just give it to him now," thought Hotaru.

(With Michiru and Haruka)

Hiding behind a near bye corner, the two outers were watching things unfold. "Come on Hotaru give it to him," giggled Michiru.

"I still don't know if I approve of him," said Haruka.

"Come now Haruka, our girl's growing up," said Michiru.

"Yes, but I'm worried that her heart will get broken, and if he does, I'll kick his ass," said Haruka.

Michiru only sighed at this, "Haruka."

(With Hotaru and Akito)

Hotaru heart was racing, beating like a drum, slight red of crimson in her face, she was wondering whether to ask him out and give him the letter, but then…

"Hotaru," Akito getting Hotaru attention, "I'll cya you around, got a tight schedule today," as he began to run from her.

Hotaru only gasped at this, her eyes going down in some sadness, as Michiru and Haruka walked up behind her.

"Don't worry Hotaru, maybe he's a little shy, you will get another chance," said Michiru making Hotaru feel better. "Why don't you mail that letter to him," said Michiru.

"For now, kid we have something else to do, finding those ninja," said Haruka as they all nodded in agreement.

(Meanwhile)

Akito was running out of the post office, "That was close," thought Akito continuing to run as he ran into an allyway and quickly ran up the walls onto the rooftop. Akito was standing on the roof arms crossed as he began to remanence about his past, "I don't deserve someone like you Hotaru," thought Akito.

Flashback…

It was a night at a beautiful ball, dances in dresses in tuxedos, music blazing, a young woman was standing alone in a beautiful purple dress, but then a man approached offering his hand.

"Would you like to dance," said the young man.

"Sure," said the young lady as she smiled and took the young man's hand.

The young couple danced on night, the music in rhythm, a cloudless night full of stars. It was a fairy tale come true. Then, the young man stopped and pulled the young ladies hand to follow him, which she accepted. They went outside to the garden on a beautiful star night. They stood next to each other as some clouds were getting ready to pass over the moon. The girl then turned around to grab something she left and wanted to return to the young man.

The young man seeing her turn her back to him took that as the opportunity as clouds went over the moon making it darker, a kunai coming out of his sleeve he struck, putting one hand around her mouth and the blade into her back.

"Uh," she was trying to scream but was muffed, then she felt even more stabs and blood starting to gush from her month. She knew her life was ending as she fell to the ground.

Her eyes were staring at her killer in the eyes as he transformed into a ninja with a hawk mask, before he turned in left, she had some final words, "Someone like you, with so much blood, will never find true love," said the girl as she died.

The shinobi turned and vanished in a swirl of leaves.

(Outside the Ball)

Akito was standing on a tree branch as he was watching the action as the guards discovered that the lady was dead. "Karin Hanon dead, mission complete," thought Akito. Then a puff of smoke appeared behind as he drew his katana, but was stopped by a bigger blade, Akito looked at the rough looking man with spikey black hair and noticed a Leaf headband.

"Whoa Akito, it's me," said the man.

"Kai sensei, what are you doing here?" asked Akito.

"Looks like I was too late, you caused quite a commotion, I have orders from the Lady Hokage that this assassination was to be called off," said Kai sensei sighing, as he took out his flask and began to drink it.

The words put a shocked expression on Akito face as he took off his mask as if he's seen a ghost. "What, but she was smuggling illegal drugs that were killing people," said Akito in denial of what he did.

"No, the truth is, this lady was sending aid to victims of this new drug," said Kai sensei. "Could you tell me who gave you the mission, it was not our Hokage."

"Lord Danzo," answered Akito.

"This will cause trouble, but don't worry, you will not be punished," said Kai sensei.

Akito was in thought, his heart was racing, he has done assassination before, but this was an innocent victim, someone he would never want to hurt, and tears began to come down from his eyes, "Someone like you, with so much blood, will never find true love," as Akito remembered her final words now feeling cursed.

"Let's return to the Leaf," said Kai sensei, with Akito nodding in agreement.

(Leaf Village)

Tsunade was in a fury as she walked to Danzo house and barged in, "Danzo!" as the man was sitting at a table working on papers. "What were thinking of giving that order?!" asked Tsunade ready to punch his lights out.

"Tsunade, the Leaf is still recovering from the attack by Orochimaru, and we need money to help to get the village back on its feet, there was high amounts of money on this assassination, so I got one of your Anbu agents to carry it out for the sake of the Leaf," explained Danzo.

"That is no excuse for you to change the information and lie!" fired back Tsunade.

"He is a gifted young assassin and what will you do about it?" said Danzo, "Kill me and start a civil war?" asked Danzo making Tsunade rethink.

(Hokage Office Morning)

Tsunade calmed down after that night of talk with Danzo as Yuki Akito was standing in front of her, sighing, "Akito, it was not your fault that this happened, but I think it is best to not let you continue your Anbu duties for a while," said Tsunade.

"Yes, my lady," said Akito still in some shock.

"Your dismissed for now, but I want you to go to the hospital for a psychiatric evaluation and I want that done by today," ordered Tsunade.

"Hai," replied Akito as he left out the office.

Flashback Ends…

"That is why Hotaru, I hope I never have to tell you the truth about me, you deserve someone better than me, a person with so much blood on his hands, blood that will never wash away, I don't deserve to be with someone kind like you." That night, my days as Akito the Blood Ice ended, but it was a name that protected the Leaf and only went after the wicked, but took the life of an innocent," thought Akito. "I rejoined the Anbu after the Great War hoping I would not have those memories return, but they have, I shall not stain my hands with the blood of an innocent ever again." As tear began to fall from Akito's eyes with sorrow and remorse, but regained his composure and began to make a call on his cell phone.

Hikawa Shrine…

"Rei was pouring some tea for her two-guest sitting across from her," "So what bring you to town Hana?" asked Rei.

"Oh, you see Kyoji and Akito are old friends of mine, so I'm visiting for a while," answered Hana sipping tea.

"What with those white eyes, are you blind?" asked Rei.

Hana was trying to think of a quick excuse, "She can see perfectly, and her white eyes are a genetic mutation," said Kyoji cutting in.

"Nice one Kyoji," thought Hana.

Kyoji phone begin to ring as he pulled it out and answer, "Hello, I see, we will be right there. Thanks for the charm and tea Rei, but Akito needs to meet with us," as he and Hana got up.

"I see, you two as well as Akito are always welcomed at the shrine," as she got up to see them out.

(Outside the Shrine)

"So, Hana did you find anything in that fire?" asked Kyoji, "I sure noticed something with my Sharingan.

"Let's meet with Akito, so I won't have to explain twice," answered Hana.

"Alright, say Hana, you think Akito is still beating himself about his past?" asked Kyoji.

"I believe he is, he needs to forgive himself and move on, we promised to keep this a secret, but for his own good I feel we may have to ask for help," said Hana.

"It will be for his own good," said Kyoji.

"By the way Kyoji, when will I meet the Senshi?" asked Hana.

"You just did, that girl Rei is one," answered Kyoji smiling.

"What?!" screamed Hana.

Rooftop…

Akito was awaiting his two friends as the sun was going down, and then they suddenly appeared behind as he turned around, "How the search for a new base go?" asked Akito.

"We found some locations but had to cut it short because Kyoji wanted a good luck charm," said Hana. With Kyoji smirking and scratching the back of his head.

"Come on Hana, we could always use some luck," said Kyoji, Akito was getting a little angry, "But I have something to add Akito, we were at the Hikawa Shrine and found strange spikes of negative energy, Hana, what di you see?" said Kyoji, Akito now taking interest.

"My Byakugan saw that something was there, it was scary, I felt anger and hatred, Rei seemed to be scared when we arrived, but something was there," reported Hana.

"Hm, that's interesting, guess we will have to be on the look out for whatever that Senshi saw, for now we will continue a new base search tomorrow," said Akito.

"How about some dinner first," said Kyoji as they heard a big stomach growl. Akito and Kyoji looked around and then saw it was Hana.

"Sorry," said Hana smiling.

"I could use some Ramen, been while sense we had some," said Kyoji. "Anyone know a good Ramen place?" asked Kyoji.

Akito was looking through his phone, "Ah, there a place called Imperial Noodles with a four and half star rating," said Akito.

"Guess we will give it a try, let's go," said Hana, as all three of them vanished.

Apartment Later That Night…

The door to the apartment opened as the three-shinobi walked in, "Man that was some good stuff," said Kyoji with a stuffed belly.

"We should go there again," said Hana.

"I agree, for now let's pack it in in search tomorrow," said Akito as they all went to their rooms for the night.

Juuban Park Night…

A young couple was walking in the park having the time of their lives on a romantic moon lite night, but then several roots came snaking towards them and wrapped around them and pulled them into a wooded area along with other victims as the roots began to drain their energy.

A Youma came out of a tree laughing evilly as Kunzite appeared, "Tred, it seems you have been successful," said Kunzite smiling.

"Yes, master Kunzite, the energy our gathered shall help greatly," replied Tred.

"Good, keep up the good work, and try to keep a low profile," instructed Kunzite as he vanished. Tred immediately went to hide inside another tree waiting for more unsuspecting victims.

Minako's House Morning…

Minako was finishing her shower and was getting dressed, with Artemis nearby covering his eyes. "Minako, you sure about this, I mean your track record with guys," said a concerned Artemis.

"Arty it will be fun, Kyoji a nice guy, soon as I am done blow drying my hair, I'm calling him," declared Minako putting up her V sign.

Sigh, "If you say so," said a worried Artemis.

Apartment Morning…

Akito was on the computer searching up real estate, while Hana was cooking some eggs, then a door opened as Kyoji walked out yawning.

"Morning," said Hana.

"Good morning team," said Kyoji sitting down as Hana placed some eggs in front of him.

"Morning Kyoji," replied Hana as she turned to Akito at the computer, "Hey Akito any luck?"

"No luck, no ideal locations, when we call for those reinforcements, there simply isn't enough room unless we by more rooms," said Akito.

"Maybe we need a break," suggested Kyoji as his phone started ringing and pulled out to find it was Minako.

"Hello, Yeah, sure would love to meet you at the park, alright cya there," said Kyoji hanging up.

"Who was that?" asked Akito.

"It was Minako, she wants to have a date with me at the park," said Kyoji.

"That's nice," said Hana.

"Hana, Minako one of the Sailor Senshi, I still wonder if dating them a good thing right now," said Akito.

"Really, you guys really need to tell me about all the Senshi," said Hana. "But have fun Kyoji, Oh and a word of advice, offer her sweets," advised Hana.

"Just be careful," said Akito warning his friend.

"I'll catch up with you all later and thanks Hana," said Kyoji going out the door.

"Kyoji has a girlfriend," smiled Hana."

"I am happy for him, I just worry," said Akito.

"You deserve a nice girl too," said Hana.

"Drop it," said Akito a little angered as he was continued searching online real estate.

Juuban Park Noon…

Minako was in the park waiting for her date with Kyoji to begin on a cloudy but sunny day in the park, checking her watch realizing she was early, sighing, "I hope he will be here soon," said Minako.

"Maybe he won't show up knowing that you're a disaster," chuckled Artemis.

Minako turning a death glare towards Artemis, "What was that?" as she unleashed a lot of killing intent.

"Nothing," smiled Artemis with a nervous laugh.

"Hey," said a familiar voice as Minako turned to see Kyoji running up to her.

"Kyoji," she smiled, "Where have you been, haven't seen you in a few days?" asked Minako.

"Well, I had some work to do, and an old friend of mine came for a visit," said Kyoji as he noticed the white cat, "This you friend Minako?" asked Kyoji. "Another crescent moon, hmm," thought Kyoji.

"Meow"

"Oh, yes this is Artemis, but for now, Artemis go home," said Minako as Artemis turned to leave but did not go home but watched from a distance.

Remebering the advice that Hana gave him, he looked around and saw an ice cream cart, "Want some ice cream?" offered Kyoji.

"I'll take strawberry please," smiled Minako.

"A strawberry and vanilla for me, coming right up, why don't you have a seat at the bench there," pointed Kyoji as Minako replied with a smile and sat on the bench.

Kyoji walked over and put in the order or two cones, one vanilla and the other strawberry, once he received and payed, he walked over to sit with Minako handing her cone to he, "Thank you," said Minako as Kyoji took a seat next to her.

As they were both licking their ice cream to joy, Minako turned to Kyoji, "Hey Kyoji," she said, getting Koji attention, "Want a taste of my strawberry," giving him a wink. This causing Kyoji to blush and become flustered.

"Ehh, heh, heh, no thanks," he managed to say.

Minako giggling to this, "He so cute when he's flustered like that," thought Minako.

(Nearby Bush)

The young couple had no idea at the time that four girls and two cats were watching them from a far.

"Darn it Minako, you beat me to it," said Makoto a bit sad.

"This is not right everyone, we shouldn't be spying on them," said Ami.

"Then why are you here Ami," said Usagi giggling.

"Everyone look, Minako just slid closer to him," said Rei getting the girls attention to watch.

"They never change," said Artemis.

"Hard to believe sometimes they are the protectors of this world," said Luna ad both cats sighed.

(With Kyoji and Minako)

Minako was sliding closer but then noticed a man walking by reading Make Out Paradise, "Kyoji, guys who read that book are real pervs, who ever made those books are the biggest of all pervs," said Minako.

The comment made Kyoji downed, "It's a good thing she doesn't know that those books help fund our mission, and well she is not far from the truth about the author," thought Kyoji. "You are right Minako," said Kyoji. "I see your done with your cone, how about we walk around this beautiful park," suggested Kyoji finishing his cone.

Both got up to take a nice stroll in the park, walking side by side, Minako tripped as Kyoji reacted and caught as she wrapped her arms around Kyoji right arm, "Whoa, you ok Minako?" asked Kyoji.

"I'm fine," replied Minako, "Fake trip always works," thought Minako smiling.

Kyoji was bit nervous with Minako wrapped around his arm but continued to stroll with her in tow smiling away unknown that some spies were watching.

Apartment…

Akito finally found a Mansion of interest looking it over with Hana. "This place is almost perfect, ten bedrooms, large basement, 20 acres of land, front gate, two stories, several bathrooms," smiled Akito.

"This place is ideal for our mission, let setup an appointment with the agency," said Hana.

As Akito was finishing setting up the appointment, a news alert went up on the computer, "Hm, what this?" thought Akito as Hana was watching as he pulled up the alert, "Hana send a message to Kyoji immediately," ordered Akito.

Hana pulled out her phone and began to text, "strange number of disappearances in the park, suspicious," thought Hana.

"As soon as your done, we are going to the park," said Akito.

Juuban Park…

"They been walking for almost an hour," said Usagi.

"Wait they are stopping by the lake," said Rei.

"They are staring at each other, Minako it's too early for that," said Makoto.

"This isn't right girls," said Ami looking away.

"Their moving closer," said Usagi.

This making Ami looking with interest.

Kyoji and Minako were staring at each, eye to eye, "Should I kiss him now," thought Minako.

"I do not think I'm ready for this yet," thought Kyoji then his phone buzzed, "Phew saved by the buzz," thought Kyoji as he reached for his phone getting some distance from Minako. He began to read the text.

(Strange activity at Juuban park, possible a Youma, be on your guard and we are on our way to investigate). This made Kyoji eyes widened.

"Something wrong?" asked Minako with concern.

"Oh, it's nothing Minako, it's just that Akito wants me to pick something up on the way," said Kyoji smiling.

"Thanks, Akito, don't think I was ready for that yet," thought Kyoji.

"AHH!"

The sudden screams caught Kyoji and Minako attention as they went to investigate coming up on a scene of a monster with roots wrapped around people absorbing their energy.

(With Usage and the girls)

They came up nearby to see what was happening.

"Another Youma," said Makoto.

"Time to transform," said Luna.

"MOON ETERNAL MAKE-UP!"

"MARS CRYSTAL POWER MAKE-UP!"

"MERCURY CRYSTAL POWER MAKE-UP!"

"JUPITER CRYSTAL POWER MAKE-UP!"

(With Kyoji and Minako)

The Youma was terrifying absorbing the energy of it's latest victims with its long tree like arms and stake like wooden fingers with roots for legs like a spider, it turned its attention to a nearby girl and guy.

"I have to get Minako to safety," thought Kyoji.

"I have to get Kyoji to safety," thought Minako.

"Minako run!" yelled Kyoji as he charged the monster.

"Kyoji wait!" yelled a concerned Minako.

Kyoji charged the monster but it quickly knocked him aside into a nearby bush.

"Kyoji!" yelled Minako worried as the monster charged Minako.

"SPARKLING WIDE PRESSURE!"

The attack hits it marks allowing Minako to getaway the monster turning its attention. "Who are you?" hissed the Tree Youma.

"We are the pretty soldiers of love and justice, I am Sailor Moon!"

"Sailor Mercury!"

"Sailor Mars!"

"Sailor Jupiter!"

"And in the name of the moon, we will punish you!" they declared in unison.

"The Sailor Senshi, I shall destroy you all," said the Youma as it launched seeds at the Senshi which they dodged.

(With Minako)

Minako got away from the fighting, "I want to see if Kyoji ok, but the Youma comes first," thought Minako.

"Minako, you need to transform," said Artemis coming up to her.

"I know," replied Minako

"VENUS CRYSTAL POWER MAKE-UP!"

(With the Senshi)

Tred continued to launch a combination of razor sharp leaves and large seeds at the Senshi which they were dodging with relative ease. Mars made her move with Mercury joining in.

"BURNING MANDALA!"

"SHINE AQUA ILLUSION!"

The Youma saw this coming and dodged them, then as it was about to attack.

"CRESCENT BEAM!"

The attack going through it's hand, "Ah, you bitch." Hissed the Youma.

"Sailor Venus, glad you could join us," smiled Sailor Moon, with Venus putting up her V sign.

"You girls will die, the Youma proceeded to put its hands through the ground and putting some sort of attack into the ground making it shake.

"What's going on," said Rei on guard as well as her fellow Senshi were looking around. Then all sudden a bunch of roots came out of the ground and wrapped around Senshi completely retraining them.

"Gotcha, now I shall have all your energy," laughed the Youma.

(With Kyoji)

The world started to come to with some pain in the head and faint voices were being heard.

"Is he ok?" said a familiar voice.

"He's coming too," said another voice.

Appeared before him were two Anbu members.

"Kyoji you, all right?" said Hawk.

"Uh, my head, I'll be fine I think," grunted Kyoji getting up.

"It does not look too bad," said Cat.

"Hana is that you?" asked Kyoji.

"Yes, just call me Cat?" said Cat.

"Suit up Kyoji, it looks like they need our help," said Hawk.

"Right," replied Kyoji forming hand sign.

"TRANSFORM!"

"Ready to go," said Wolf.

"BYAKUGAN!"

Cat was scanning the situation, then saw a weakness, "The two arms in the ground," said Cat.

(With the Senshi)

The Senshi were struggling to get free but were unable to budge the roots and were getting weaker due to the energy drain.

"I will suck you until you die," laughed the tree Youma…

"LEAF STYLE DANCE OF THE CRESCENT MOON!"

"AH!" screamed the Youma, my arms, what have you done to my arms!" yelled an angry Youma finding the culprit to be a man in a Hawk mask.

The Senshi saw and were astonished, then a ninja in a Wolf mask appeared in front of Venus.

"Hey, you all right?" asked Wolf.

"Yea," said nervously Venus.

"Let me and my comrades get you and your friends out of those binds," said Wolf as he drew a kunai and enhanced it with lighting chakra, nearby the other Senshi were being freed by the Hawk and Cat masked ninjas.

"So, your Sailor Moon," said Hawk cutting her binds with his katana.

"Yes, but who are you three?"

"Hawk"

"Wolf"

"Cat"

"You require assistance?" asked Hawk.

"No, we were doing just fine," said scoffed Rei.

"Really, says the girl who got caught," snickered Wolf.

As the two were about to continue arguing, "Ah!" this getting everyone's attention. The Youma who's arms were cut off grew back. "I will kill you all," declared the Youma as it launched massive seeds from its month that hit the ground near them on impact and yellow smoke filling the air.

"Pollen, don't breathe it in," warned Cat as everyone began to hold their breath.

The Youma seeing them consumed in a cloud of pollen laughed, "Choke on my pollen." Suddenly…

"EIGHT TRIGRAM ROTATION!"

The pollen was blown away, catching the Youma disbelief.

"Hawk, Wolf, now is your chance," said Cat as Wolf proceded to charge it and Hawk forming hand signs.

"WATER STYLE VORTEX JUTSU!"

A torrent of water impacted the Youma hard pushing it back as Wolf managed to out run the Youma being hit and he was heading towards Wolf.

"LIGHTING STYLE LIGHTING WALL!"

The Youma slammed into the wall of lighting in shocking pain and a pounding torrent of water. "Ah!" screaming it great pain.

The Senshi were standing watching in both fear and amazement, "Hey Senshi you all just going to stand there?" said Hawk. The Senshi snapping out of their astonishment attacked.

"MARS FLAME SNIPER!"

"MERCURY AQUA RHAPSODY!"

"JUPITER OAK EVOLUTION

"VENUS LOVE AND BEUTY SHOCK!"

"SILVER MOON POWER KISS!"

Wolf seeing this got out of the way and the Youma did not turning it into dust.

Hawk and Cat ran into to Wolf position. "Well done you two," said Hawk.

"We still work well together," said Wolf high fiving his two friends.

"Um guys, we got something else to do remember," said Hana reminding her comrades.

"Oh right," said Wolf with all them now turning towards the Senshi who still had some what shocked expression.

They were in complete awe, the power they displayed was amazing, scary, not to mention organized. The Senshi continued to stare at the shinobi before them, then Hawk broke the silience. "Hello Sailor Senshi, we are Shinobi," said Hawk as he approached them with Wolf and Cat standing back arms crossed. "And we need to talk," said Hawk," as he was getting closer the Senshi immediately got into a defensive stance around Sailor Moon. Mars had a cautious expression, Jupiter was guarded, Ami and Venus didn't seem bothered by the presence of the shinobi.

"No need to get defensive," said Hawk waving his arms as he was approaching. "I have a few questions I want to ask you?" then…

"WORLD SHAKING!"

The attack hitting it mark as Wolf and Cat turned to the three new arrivals, both activating their dojutsu.

"The Outers Senshi have arrived."

"Sailor Uranus"

"Sailor Neptune"

"Uranus, there was no need to do that," said Moon having sympathy for the ninja who was down on the ground.

"No one approaches our princess," said Uranus.

"And now you two will answer our question," declared Neptune, Saturn only nodding in agreement.

"I know you two were trying to protect me, but he meant no harm," said Usagi, suddenly the body turned into water putting everyone in shock except for the two shinobi.

"Where did he go?" said Uranus as her fellow Outers were on guard looking around.

"That attack wasn't bad," said a voice behind them putting the Outers in shock as they turned to look seeing the ninja sitting on a bench chilling with arms crossed.

"How did he?" thought Neptune.

"When did he," thought Uranus, Saturn only had a shocked but cold expression.

Wolf was, as well as Cat were looking at the three Senshi that just arrived, "Their chakra is higher than those other ones, especially that one with the glaive," thought Wolf. "Hey Hawk, those ladies are packing a lot more heat, and I just don't mean the pretty kind," said Wolf.

"Careful Hawk," advised Cat.

"I know," said Hawk, "Now, there is no need for any…" as he was trying to finish the girl with the Glaive charged him slicing downward, Hawk responded to this by flipping out of the bench backwards, the glaive slicing the bench in two.

"Stop this now!" yelled Moon.

"We need to do something before this gets worse," said Venus.

"What good am I a princess when no one listens," thought Moon.

Hawks was dodging the Senshi in the purple fuku with ease, still he knew this one was very powerful, then she swung her glaive and forced him to pull off the Sheath of his katana with the blade still in and blocked it, their weapons locked as his eyelids of his mask were staring at cold purple eyes mere inches from each other.

So Hotaru, this is the power Kyoji sensed, I must say it making me quiver a little and a bit excited," thought Hawk. "The name's Hawk, what yours?" asked Hawk.

"I am Sailor Saturn, Soldier of Death and Rebirth," replied Saturn coldly.

"Death huh," said Hawk confidently.

"You are not afraid of me?" wondered Saturn.

"I've been through death situations well almost hundred times by now, fighting you would be no different," replied Hawk.

"You're a fool, why not draw your sword?" asked Saturn.

"I do not intend to hurt anyone else today," said Hawk, "If I draw this blade, someone will get hurt," he shot back.

Uranus and Neptune attempted to help their fellow Outer only to be intercepted by Wolf and Cat. "You will not intervene, we do not want anyone else to get hurt," said Wolf.

"Cease hostilities or we will be forced to defend ourselves," said Cat, both flinching but were getting ready to attack.

"Sailor Moon, you have to stop this before someone gets hurt," said Luna.

"This is going to escalate," said Artemis the three Outers and three shinobi looked ready to go all out.

The two Shinobi and Outers were ready to go out, Uranus and Neptune were charging their attacks, Cat and Wolf pulling out kunai getting into battle position. While Saturn and Hawk broke the lock and Hawk was getting pushed back not yet drawing his sword, then…

"STOP!" yelled Sailor Moon as she got between both sides. "I order you both to stop as Princess Serenity," said Sailor Moon in a forceful tone. "You will listen to my orders."

"But princess," said Uranus caught by surprise of Serenity.

"We were only trying to," said Neptune before…

"Your protests are noted," said Moon, as she turned to the two Shinobi as they were caught by surprise by this Senshi sudden backbone. "Will you two stand down as well?" said Moon as she turned her attention to the Shinobi with a glare.

Cat and Wolf were taken and impressed by this Senshi actions. "Usagi, I did not think you were the kind of girl to do this," thought Wolf, "Guess their more to you than I thought."

"So, this is Sailor Moon," thought Cat as she and Wolf looked at each other and nodded and put away their kunai.

Sighing some relief Sailor Moon then looked to the last two, "Saturn stop this…"

A glaive ran right through Hawk, as Sailor Moon almost freaked out, "Saturn what have ...!" the man she thrusted through suddenly turned to Ice freezing her glaive within its body catching Saturn by surprise as she was trying to pull it free then felt the ninja behind her.

"Didn't you hear your princess," said Hawk as he put his sheath on his back while Saturn still was trying to pull her weapon free. Hawk then walked to his two comrades.

"That was Akito Ice Clone technique, been a long time since I've seen that technique," thought Cat.

"If she was an enemy, she be wide opened for an attack right now, but that's not what we are here for," thought Wolf as the Inners begin to run up with the cats with Sailor Moon. Saturn finally managed to pull her glaive free and walked up standing with the Outers.

"Alright now that their will be no fighting are you ready to talk?" asked Hawk looking at Sailor Moon.

"Yes," replied Moon as they began to take seats in the grass to talk.
