SailorStar9: With Chapter 82 out, this is Chapter 83 of this fic. Remember boys and girls, reviews are an author's subsistence. Really, is it so difficult for you guys to review instead of just putting this fic up in your favorites and alerts?

Pairings: Tieria/Ami, Mamoru/Usagi and quite possible Setsuna/Hotaru.

Guest: Why do I get the feeling you're reading this fic backwards? One main reason why this Book doesn't feel like a crossover is because Present Day Tieria Erde is reborn as a normal human in present times and he isn't in the bulk of this Book. About U-Tomodachi, it isn't that I don't want to save her, it's that all of the Daimons are created by inserting Daimon Eggs into an inanimate object. Saving this one Daimon would be redundant since we have no idea just how long the energy the Daimon Egg could keep them animated. If you want to know just how the Gundam 00 cast fit into this, refer back to the Crystal Tokyo chapters: I included the Celestial Being main cast (Trinity siblings included) as the Crystal Palace's main defense force. Granted the S Season of this Book is pretty much a rehash of the original series, but I did up the Inner Senshi's battle capabilities, via training I might add, and not because of plot like Usagi. Didn't I also give Makoto and Minako their 'Planet' power ups? Setsuna F. Seiei's Present Day incarnation will also be appearing later, along with Hotaru.

Standard BS Disclaimers: I do not own Sailor Moon, Gundam 00 or the pairings. If I did, the other Senshi would be as powerful as Sailor Moon and kicking MOTD ass more often and VEDA would have least an anti-hacker program installed. The only thing I do own is the plot.

Chapter 83: Death of Uranus and Neptune? Talismans Appear


In the Witches Five office...

"This should allow me to specify the owners of Pure Hearts that have the Talismans hidden in them, for sure." Eudial inserted her upgraded data file into the computer and let the program run. "This will allow me to see who has a Talisman. But who in the world has the purest heart to hide a Talisman?" she wondered. "So this..." she breathed in disbelief once the results came out. "Is the owner of a Talisman?"


In Haruka and Michiru's shared apartment...

"Hello is this Tenou Haruka's residence?" Eudial's message was left on the telephone recorder. "This is Eudial, I wanted to thank you for your hard work. Are you surprised? It's easy for me to figure out where you are now that you have shown me your true identities. I'll surprise you even further. I have finally found the location of a Talisman owner. I will go take it now. The battle will be won by..." she was cut off when the playback was cut short. "The recording time on this is too short!" the red-haired Witch fumed. "I couldn't finish what I wanted to say. So, there you have it. I hear you have been searching for the Talismans as well. Depending on the conditions, I can have you join us. Don't worry, I haven't told my boss about your true identities yet. If you feel up to it, come to the place I'm going to specify. I'll send you a map via fax. See you." she ended the message.

"It's probably true that she found the owner of a Talisman." Michiru agreed as the map was faxed over.

"It coincides with our premonition." Haruka concurred. "It's finally time."


In the Mizuno apartment...

Ami was playing with the rook piece of the chessboard she had laid out when the dial of the house phone rang. "Hello, Mizuno residence." she took the call. "Michiru-nee?"


In Haruka and Michiru's shared apartment...

"It's been a while since I was here." Ami stared that the aquarium that took up the entire 50th floor of the building.

"Don't show yourself in front of us ever again, imouto." Michiru told the younger Senshi. "I won't allow you or Sailor Moon to slow us down with your half-baked play-war. "Your henshin pen, please." she held out a hand. "Thank you." she claimed the transformation wand. "I'll hold onto this for the time being. The next time you show yourself before us, you will die."

"Uranus Planet Power, Make Up!"

"Neptune Planet Power, Make Up!"

The two Outer Senshi transformed.

"We are searching for the Talismans that are sealed inside Pure Hearts." Sailor Uranus reminded. "The Holy Grail will not appear unless we collect all three Talismans in one place."

"Silence, the time of destruction is approaching this world right now." Sailor Neptune added. "The only one who can save us is the Messiah, the one who can use the Grail."

"This has nothing to do with you." Sailor Uranus assured.

Opening the door that led to the helicopter pad, the two Outer Senshi boarded the helicopter and took off.

"Will you go rescue them?" Setsuna asked. "They have headed to a place where their destined battle will begin. But today, even those two will be in danger. I am Meiou Setsuna, an old acquaintance of those two. Will you go rescue them? But you might see even graver danger as you are unable to transform."

"I will go, even if they don't want me to." Ami turned to see the rapidly vanishing helicopter. "Those two... they are my precious older sisters, after all."


In the still under construction Marine Cathedral...

"For someone who invited us, this is rather unwelcome." Sailor Uranus remarked as she and Sailor Neptune walked down the corridor with red panels on both sides. "What's wrong, Neptune?" she asked when Sailor Neptune stopped her in her tracks, having heard the whirling sound of a hidden camera. "It moved?" she frowned when one of the panels detached itself from the wall.

"Uranus." Sailor Neptune warned as the other panels followed suit, lining themselves up in a row behind them.

"So, this was an enemy trap." Sailor Uranus growled.

Both Sailors Uranus and Neptune dodged the flying panels that flew towards them; Eudial was controlling the panels in another room with a table-soccer game.

"World Shaking!" Sailor Uranus fired her attack at the panels, destroying a wave of them.

"Deep Submerge!" Sailor Neptune's attack destroyed another wave.

"How's that?" Sailor Uranus was certain they had taken out all of the panels when a red panel closed in on her from behind.

"Uranus!" Sailor Neptune pushed her partner away, taking the hit. The panel on the wall she was trapped on flipped to the other side and the Ocean Senshi disappeared from sight.

"Sailor Uranus!" Eudial laughed, playing the organ in the main cathedral's main hall. "Now, I have the owner of a Talisman. I really fell for it as well. But then, not even you had realized it. Let me tell you, the owner of a Talisman is your partner, Sailor Neptune. I will soon extract the Talismans from Neptune. How do you feel about that? If you want to watch, come to the main hall."

"Neptune!" arriving in the main hall, Sailor Uranus saw the captive Sailor Neptune in front of her and ran across the passageway, only to be shot by the numerous dart guns hidden within the panels lining both walls.

"You fell for it." Eudial laughed. "Fool, when someone other than myself walks across this bridge, they receive divine punishment." she strolled over to the fallen Sailor Uranus. "Don't worry, I haven't pulled out Neptune's Talisman yet. I must pull out the Talisman of another person first." she poised the Capture Gun on Sailor Uranus' brooch. "I mean, you. I'm talking about your heart: the one that tried to save the world, without fear of soiling one's hands. Although, with those wounds, the force from this gun will kill you."

"Uranus!" Sailor Neptune pulled herself free and hurried to her partner, only to be stuck down by the dart guns herself. "Haruka, I won't let you die..." she struggled to the Wind Senshi.

"Wait, Neptune." Sailor Uranus warned. "Don't move."

Her warning came too late when Sailor Neptune was hit by a second wave of dart guns.

"They're out of bullets." Eudial noted, spotting the smoking gun holes as Sailor Neptune made her way across.

The Ocean Senshi fell onto the muzzle of the Capture Gun and Eudial pressed the trigger, extracting the water Senshi's Heart Crystal and morphing into the Deep Aqua Mirror.

"I'll take yours next." Eudial turned to Sailor Uranus.

"Hold it right there!" Ami barked. Charging across the passageway, she tackled Eudial and forcing her to drop the Capture Gun. Said Witch was hovering over the edge of the passageway, before she jumped onto the nearby pulley and descended downwards.

"Michiru-nee!" Ami then turned to her fallen cousin. "Please, Talisman." she pleaded. Turn back into Michiru-nee's Heart Crystal."

"Please stop that..." Sailor Uranus muttered. "We're found the Talisman. This is the way it should be. You're so unfair, Michiru. To leave for a world of your own... I believe this is yours." she tossed the Mercury Star Stick to Ami. "You really are reckless, imouto. You knew you can't transform, and yet..." she grabbed the Capture Gun.

"You can't!" Ami jumped over to Sailor Uranus, trying to snatch the Capture Gun away.

"Let go." Sailor Uranus pulled the Capture Gun away. "There is another Talisman inside me."

"Even if we don't have the Talismans, we can still save the world." Ami argued.

"It won't matter, imouto." Sailor Uranus kissed Ami's forehead and three her to the ground. "Please make sure to find the last Talisman, too." leveling the Capture Gun on her brooch, she fired the weapon and extracted her own Heart Crystal, which turned into the Space Sword.

The other Senshi arrived too late to see Ami grieving over her deceased 'older sisters', as Setsuna stood quietly in the back.
