SailorStar9: I've uploaded Chapter 12, so, this is Chapter 13. To all my non-reviewing readers, I love you all! Will love you more if you review! *hugs all round!*
Disclaimers: Nothing here is mine, well, except the plot and the pairing.
Chapter 13: When We Were Young, We All Had Sorrows
Ami held back a sigh as she picked one of the outermost metal balls from the Newton's Cradle on her desk and let the subsequent metal balls swing.
"Problems, Ami-sama?" a small voice asked as Falcomon poked his head out from under the table.
"I'm fine, Falcomon." Ami assured her partner Digimon, she herself had been quite surprised the Vaccine Digimon had tracked her down the other day.
"It is about about the message on the voice recorder?" Falcomon questioned. "I do not know of the details, but won't it be wise for you to see what that man wants, Ami-sama? He is your father, after all."
"Falcomon, he abandoned us... both me and Mother." Ami reminded quietly. "We... I own him nothing."
"Perhaps," the bird Digimon nodded. "But still... maybe you could confine in Yamato-sama?" he suggested and handed over the corded phone.
Ami gave the owl Digimon a smile and dialed Yamato's number.
Elsewhere...
"Mimette, Eudial, we're..."
"... Very disappointed. You should not have let the Senshi live."
Mimette sighed. "Look at the bright side, we know who the carriers are now."
"And all we have to do is get them." Eudial added.
The figures paused for a second, then nodded in unison. "This time, we won't..."
"... Accept a failure. Go and..."
"... Get the talismans. If the other Senshi interfere..."
"... Kill them."
"Michiru, come and see this," Haruka said.
"What?" Michiru walked into Haruka's room, and saw what the problem was. The TV was on, but a familiar face was in it. "Eudial?"
"I tell you, TV's programs just keep getting worse." Haruka joked.
"Sailor Uranus, Sailor Neptune, we'll be waiting for you at the docks. Don't be late."
Eudial's image dissapeared from the TV screen. Haruka looked at it for a few seconds before turning to Michiru, "I guess it's time for the talismans to appear."
Michiru nodded, "Let's go."
Uranus and Neptune entered the dock area, carefully looking for any trap the two witches would have laid for them. Mimette and Eudial appeared in front of them and the two sides looked at each other.
"So you did come here. You're as naive as we thought..." Eudial said.
"We know we have the talismans. And you're the only ones that can make them come out of our bodies." Uranus said.
"Good. Then just stand still while we blast you." Mimette said.
"Not yet." Neptune said. "If we let the talismans fall in the wrong hands, our whole mission would be a failure."
"So you want to fight?" Eudial asked.
"World Shaking!" Eudial and Mimette leapt out of the way. Uranus shrugged. "That's as good an answer as any, don't you agree?"
"Mimette, you get Neptune, I'll fight Uranus." Eudial said. Mimette nodded and the battle begun.
"Deep Submerge!"
Mimette dodged the water wave then leapt at Neptune. The green-haired Senshi backflipped as Mimette swung her fist at her, then kicked her in the chest making her stagger back.
"I see you're a better fighter than I expected." Mimette commented while recovering her breath.
"Deep Submerge!" Neptune took the chance to attack while Mimette was slightly distracted and sent her crashing through a warehouse's wall. A loud crash was heard inside the building. This is my chance...
Mimette shook her head as she climbed out of the deomlished warehouse, onlt to find Neptune was nowhere to be seen. "Damn where did she... Oh she surely went to help her friend. Perfect." The witch shrugged and walked away, her arm dripping blood.
Meanwhile Uranus was also having an even-matched fight against Eudial. So far neither had been able to hit their opponent, but they were both slowly running out of energy. "Give up, girl." Eudial snapped.
"You know it won't be that easy," Uranus snapped back.
"Stop it right there!"
Eudial and Uranus both looked up. The Senshi were all standing on top of a warehouse's roof, ready to attack. "We won't let you get the talismans," Moon said.
In that moment, Neptune dashed into the scene. She noticed Pluto was with the others and frowned "What are you doing here?"
"It's time for the Talismans to appear." Pluto said.
Mimette came walking towards Eudial as Neptune and Uranus stood side by side facing them.
"I know that, Pluto." Uranus said. Both she and Neptune looked at the witches. "Go ahead."
"What?" Moon almost shouted.
"Do not interfere." Pluto said.
"But they will die if their crystals are not in their bodies!" Moon said.
"Please... Let us do it. If the world's saved, nothing else matters. " Uranus said.
"I can't." Moon said.
Pluto sighed, "It's the only way." she said, "And no one will die. Trust me."
Moon looked at the green-haired woman for a few seconds then sighed. "Okay... I trust you."
Mimette frowned, "It's too easy... Must be a trap."
"We'll worry about that later. Let's get those Talismans. Lightning Buster!"
"Ice Buster!"
Uranus and Neptune were hit dead on by the blasts, and their heart crystals floated away from their bodies. Mimette and Eudial run to get them but they floated away from them, and to Pluto's hands.
"Hey those are ours!" Eudial snapped.
Pluto looked at them and frowned, "Leave now or you'll regret it."
"And who's going to stop us, you?" Mimette muttered.
"Chronos Typhoon!"
Pluto's attack surrounded the witches and they screamed in pain before fainting.
"Darn she's got a LOT of power." Jupiter commented.
Pluto looked at the crystals in her hands. Her staff started glowing, and the crystals also glew with a bright light. Two items, a blue-hilted sword that resembled a saber and a green hand mirror, floated up from the crystals. "There they are..."
"Where's the third?" Mars asked.
Pluto pointed at her key-shaped staff. In the upper part of it was a small purplish sphere. It floated up with the two other Talismans.
"Interesting... If my readings are correct these three items have an outstanding power," Mercury commented.
"The Talismans..."
"... Have been summoned."
"But neither Eudial nor Mimette are responding."
"I know. We must get those Talismans at once."
"Teruru!"
A green-haired woman appeared in front of the two figures. Her hair was tied up in twin ponytails and her eyes were black. She looked at the two figures and then bowed. "Did you call me, masters?"
"Go and..."
"...Get the Talismans."
"At once," Teruru said and vanished.
SailorStar9: Okay, this chapter is finally down. Read and review folks.
