RRTAB: Read, Review, and Tell A Buddy!
Disclaimer: I don't own Sailor Moon!
Keisuke and the Shittenou teleported into Beryl's throne just in time to see a bloody form of a youma crash into a wall. "P-please," the youma whimpered. "My queen, it wasn't my fault!"
Beryl ignored the youma's cries and levitated it using her dark powers. With a snap of her fingers, a portal much like the one that Jedite was sucked into. She gave an evil smirk. "Good-bye, Useless." The last sound heard from the poor youma was a fear-ridden scream.
"Beryl," Keisuke stepped towards the throne, completely unfazed by what he just saw. "What happened?"
"The twits I call subjects lost the senshi." Beryl was livid but managed to keep a cool demeanor. "You are to halt all searching for the Princess and bring them back."
Keisuke stiffened. "What? My Queen, the Princess is only a teleport away. Were so close! I—."
"Don't question me, Keisuke," the redhead snapped. "You're the only general that has success carried out every mission that has been given to him. You have until Zoicite fixes the teleporter destroyed by Sailor Venus. Until then, prepare."
"I understand," Keisuke muttered. He spun on his heel and walked out of the room.
Once he was in his room, he shut the door and collapsed onto his bed. He rolled his eyes. He should have known the youma would find a way to mess everything up. Keisuke had given them the Sailor Senshi on a silver platter yet they found a way to let them escape.
"They always mess up," he mumbled as he closed his eyes.
Keisuke remembered how he and the Shittenou first met. That was due to a youma's idiocy as well.
"Tell me again why we are in the Amazon Rainforest, Zoicite?" a younger version of Jedite demanded.
Zoicite roll his eyes. "I already told you. We detect a lot of energy here. For all we know, the Silver Crystal could be here! Muyushi!"
A youma that resembled a gigantic centipede appeared. It immediately dropped into a bow. "You call, Master?"
"Yes," Zoicite replied. "Take this," he placed a beeping device into a large cloth sack and handing it to the youma, "and sit it in the heart of the forest. If the crystal is here, we'll find it." The youma nodded and scuttled away.
Meanwhile, Keisuke and his father were, too, in the forest. The young boy yawned. "Dad, isn't it too early to work?"
Motoharu raised an eyebrow. "It wasn't too early to eat all my food this morning, was it?"
Keisuke crossed his arms. "I'm a growing boy. I need my nutrition."
"Sure," Motoharu said sarcastically. "Anyway, it's your fault that your sister's rabbit is lost. The least you can do is find it."
"We can't just get her a new one?"
"Sierra's a smart girl. She'd know the difference."
Keisuke chuckled. "Times like this, I wish I had the typical stupid little sister."
Motoharu smiled. "You look in the east. I'll look in the west. We'll meet back here in an hour, with or without the rabbit."
Keisuke nodded and started on the eastern tour path. "Chelsea!" he called the rabbit's name. "Come here, Chelsea!"
The teen's search proved fruitless for twenty minutes. He eventually found himself frustrated. "Come out you stupid rabbit! I want to go home!"
There was a growl. He frowned. The growl seemed almost…unnatural. Keisuke looked around for the source.
He gasped at what he saw. There was a bug the size of the trees that seemed to be putting a machine of sorts together!
The gasp caught the attention of the youma. "No!" it hissed. "You weren't supposed to see me!"
Keisuke backed up in panic. "I-I'm sorry." He spun the other way and ran. In his haste, he tripped and hit his head.
"What am I going to do?" were the last words he heard before blacking out completely.
When he woke, he heard voices speaking—no arguing. "—Muyushi's an idiot!"
"Well, what are we going to do? We can't just keep him here!"
"I think he's waking up."
Keisuke opened his eyes to see Jedite and Zoicite standing over him. "W-who are you?"
The two ignore his question. "Well, there's only one thing to do," Zoicite said while crossing his arms."
"I'm listening."
"We have to take him to Beryl."
Keisuke frowned. "B-Beryl?"
Again, the two blondes ignored him. Jedite nodded. "Best case scenario, he becomes one of Beryl's servant."
"Worse case," Zoicite continued, "he's killed."
Keisuke's eyes widened. "Killed? What? I don't want to die!" Again, he was ignored. The generals grabbed his hands and dragged him out of the room. "No. I don't want to go!"
Keisuke pulled himself out of his memories. After being dragged to Beryl's throne, he became a vessel for dark energy and one of the best generals the Dark Kingdom ever had.
He chuckled. "Youma are all idiots."
Well, I hope that cleared up a few questions about Keisuke~ Like it? Hate it? Tell me in a review! It's my birthday and reviews make the best presents, after all!
Well, I'm pretty excited for the next chapter! Here's a little hint: Moon. Princess. Revealed. Excited!
Well, that's all for now!
