Chapter 85: Believe in Love! Ami, a Kind Hearted Senshi
"Tellu's student handbook..." Ami showed the Inner Senshi Tellu had dropped the previous day.
"Mugen Academy, huh?" Minako mused.
"There is something there." Makoto reasoned.
"Ami, you're amazing!" Usagi ran up to the girls. "You got the highest ranking in the national practice exams with a perfect score."
"I'm not the only one at the top." Ami corrected. "There was another person with a perfect score; a girl named Bidou Yui, who is always at the top of the Mugen Academy.
"Mugen Academy again..." Rei frowned.
"The next national practice examination is held at Mugen Academy, right?" Minako reminded. "In that case, why don't we sneak into the exam site and really do a good investigation?"
"But, we don't have a registration ticket." Makoto pointed out.
"About that..." Ami produced the exam ticket. "I had been planning to take that examination at Mugen Academy."
At Mugen Academy the next day...
"We have quite a few here." Professor Tomoe mused, looking at the security cameras.
"Yes," Kaolinite agreed. "Mugen Academy is becoming more popular with its high caliber education. Those that had gathered here are especially intelligent."
"Professor." Viluy voiced, forcing Kaolinite off Professor Tomoe.
"Viluy," Professor Tomoe turned. "It seems like your plan is going along schedule."
"Yes." Viluy answered. "I, Viluy, will collect an immense amount of Pure Hearts."
"This is also a great plan to awaken the Messiah of Silence." Professor Tomoe praised.
"Are you Mizuno Ami?" Bidou approached her rival. "You always do well on those national exams. I was thinking I wanted to meet you someday. I am Bidou Yui. I was listed next to you at the previous national exams. This is the perfect opportunity, Mizuno I want to show you something that might help with your studies. Come this way." she pulled Ami off.
"This is..." Ami peered at the model Bidou had showed her.
"A greenhouse model of the Universe." Bidou explained. "I made it in the Science Club. It's pretty, isn't it? This is the Tau Nebula. Our school is broken into five classes: philosophy, entertainment, science, physical and professional. Other than the instructors for each class, superior students like me become lecturers and teach the students of Mugen Academy. Anyone can become a lecturer, given that they are intelligent enough. That's the good part of Mugen Academy. Logic is what is most important in science."
"I don't think that way." Ami objected. "I think that science especially needs the warmth of human hearts."
"Mizuno, you're at the top of the country, yet that doesn't sound like someone who gets such good grades will say." Bidou tsked. "The exam is about to start." she heard the school bell. "I'll see you again."
"That student, Mizuno Ami," Professor Tomoe voiced. There is something suspicious about her."
"There is a need to investigate." Kaolinite agreed.
"Perhaps, she might be one of the Sailor Senshi." Viluy suggested. "I, Bidou Yui, in charge of the science class, will determine the truth about Mizuno Ami."
"That's for me..." Kaolinite protested.
"This plan to gather many Pure Hearts at once is all my plan." Viluy pushed Kaolinite aside. "If Mizuno Ami turns out to be a Sailor Senshi and gets in the way, I'll get rid of her. These nanobots are efficient. They are computers that faithfully follow just the data that gets inputted into them. They move however I want them to, at my command. If we let thee take care of it, success is guaranteed." she injected her nanobots into the computer mainframe.
"Do as you wish, however you want to do it." Professor Tomoe gave Viluy the go-ahead.
In the underground laboratory...
"The Messiah of Silence!" Michiru gasped, when her and Haruka burst into the laboratory and seeing Mistress Nine lounging in the chair on the podium.
"The ultimate evil that should be obliterated." Haruka hissed and the two Outer Senshi charged in.
"Wait a moment." Ami stopped the two older females.
"This is the root of all evil who will seal away the entire world into one of silence." Haruka reminded. "I can't let her off the hook."
"Rikuo-sama told me that Kaolinite had abducted Hotaru." Ami informed. "Perhaps they intended to use her as a vessel again."
"What are you doing?" Bidou demanded. "I thought this place is off limits. Kaiou Michiru, Tenoh Haruka, Mizuno Ami; you guys are suspicious. Show your true identities." she reverted to her Viluy self. "Mosaic Buster!" she wasted no time in attacking the three untransformed Senshi. "Take this!" taking out Haruka and Michiru, she fired another attack at Ami.
Ami dodged the attack causing the beam to hit a couple of balloons around the podium where Mistress Nine sat.
"Mercury Planet Power, Make Up!" the ice/water Senshi was forced to transform.
"What?" Viluy was shocked. "Genius girl, Mizuno Ami, so your true identity is indeed a Sailor Senshi. Die with these two! Mosaic Buster!" she fired another round of nanobots at the revealed Senshi.
"Cryoblast" Sailor Mercury countered with a blast of ice, freezing the nanobots.
"It's useless." Viluy declared, freeing her nanobots with a button on her bracelet. "Does that hurt?" she grinned as the flood of nanobots attacked the ice Senshi. "Invisible nanobots that come from the program that I control are biting into your body and trying to break you up. The only thing left will be your beautiful soul, your Pure Heart."
"It's wrong to use science for evil." Sailor Mercury declared.
"You will sacrifice that Pure Heart for the Messiah of Silence!" Viluy bragged.
"Blizzard Wind." Sailor Mercury whispered, surrounding the nanobots and herself with a gust of icy winds.
"Uranus Planet Power, Make Up!"
"Neptune Planet Power, Make Up!"
Taking the distraction, Haruka and Michiru transformed.
"World Shaking!" Sailor Uranus wasted no time in firing her attack.
"Deep Submerge!" Sailor Neptune blasted Viluy with her seawater sphere.
"Mercury Guardian, Make Up!" with Viluy weakened from the two Outer Senshi's attacks, Sailor Mercury took the opening to power up. "Hailstorm Burst!" she focused her attack on Viluy's control bracelet.
"My cute little nanobots, get rid of Guardian Mercury!" Viluy fired a 'Mosaic Buster' at the Cleanser when the nanobots attacked her instead. "What's going on? Nanobots, you're attacking the wrong target. Don't you realize that it's me?"
"Machines don't have hearts." Guardian Mercury reminded the defeated Viluy. "Science doesn't need hearts. That's what you said."
With a scream, Viluy's bracelet scattered, disabling the nanobots inside the computer mainframe and freeing the captured Pure Heart Crystals.
"Viluy has failed." Professor Tomoe remarked.
Such arrogance. Kaolinite smirked.
"Sailor Senshi, I have confirmed your identities." Professor Tomoe laughed.
"The Messiah of Silence is..." Sailor Uranus turned when the ground started shaking and the chair Mistress Nine was sitting on rose from the ground.
"Sailor Senshi," Professor Tomoe declared. "The battle has just begun." he chuckled and moved the chair into a swirling portal.
