SailorStar9: With Chapter 90 out, this is Chapter 91 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.
Just in case anyone is still confused, Kubo Satoshi is the Present Day Tieria Erde and Faheem Kamal is the Present Day Setsuna F. Seiei.
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 91: Invasion From an Alternate Dimension! The Mystery of Mugen Academy
Some time later...
The doorbell to Haruka and Michiru's apartment rang and Setsuna opened the door to see Hotaru standing outside with a weekend bag. "Setsuna-mama, I was right." the Senshi of Death spoke. "Papa is involved with the Death Busters."
"Hotaru..." Setsuna hugged her and led her into the apartment.
About a day later...
"So, Hotaru ran away from home." Usagi informed the Senshi who had gathered in Mamoru's apartment. "She's staying with Haruka and the others."
"Neither Professor Tomoe nor his assistant Kaori is in Hotaru's house." Luna supplied.
"And they didn't even leave a clue." Artemis added.
"What can you find out using the computer, Mamo-chan?" Usagi asked.
"Information about Professor Tomoe should be registered in the academic files." Mamoru pulled out an old news article "Perhaps there's a clue there. Found it. Tomoe Souichi, the pioneer man in genetic engineering. Professor at Mugen Academy?"
"That's the elite school with strict standards, full of geniuses, right?" Makoto asked.
"Yes," Ami nodded. "An education from elementary school all the way to its university. I heard that the high-rise building which serves as their campus is filled with state-of-the-art equipment."
"Not only is Tomoe Souichi a professor at Mugen Academy, but he's also the owner." Mamoru added.
"Perhaps, there is a clue at that school." Ami frowned.
"Good, all of you are here." Setsuna arrive at the apartment with Hotaru in tow. "It's time to come clean with what we know about Mugen Academy; it is a school that Tomoe Souichi created three years ago. However, many strange incidents have happened on campus. So, Uranus and Neptune, who'd been thinking the school was suspicious for a while, entered Mugen Academy to investigate."
"Then, Professor Tomoe..." Artemis gaped.
"We felt that he had something to do with the Death Busters." Setsuna nodded. "And Hotaru pretty much confirmed it yesterday."
In the Witches Four office...
"Professor, this is Mimete." this time, it was Mimete who made the call. "I found the next target. The authority on the physics of alternate dimension, Dr. Sergei Asimov. He's holding a special lecture at Mugen Academy today."
"Unfortunately, there is no need for you to head out for now." Professor refuted. "I'll be contacting you soon, Mimete." he ended the call. "It's time to go, Tellu." he informed the plant user, unaware that Mimete had installed a listening device under his desk. "She's doing her best. But, I'm not getting the results I really want. So I decided that I should put my hopes upon you. If you succeed, you will become the next executive. Do your best."
"You've got to be kidding!" Mimete fumed. "Fine. I'll just have to get rid of the Sailor Senshi myself and show them what power I have. Eudial-senpai, I'll borrow that machine you were making for a bit."
Outside the Mugen Academy campus later...
"I do feel something ominous here." Rei reported.
"It seems like this school is holding a special lecture with a guest speaker today." Artemis spotted the banner in front of the door.
"It says that anyone can enter the school today." Luna added.
"It's our chance." Ami told the girls. "Let's go."
Inside the Mugen Academy...
"An alternate universe." Dr. Asimov started his lecture in the hall. "It's not a faraway existence. The possibility of an alternate dimension and our universe are always working in parallel to one another is very large. For example, take a small nebula like this." the image of a nebula was shown on the screen between his hands. "Perhaps that it's small nebulae like this are just invisible to us, and may as well exist next to us. And there's the possibility that there are life-forms inside. We are unable to see them. But at the same time, I believe, they are unable to see us, either. Likewise, there's a possibility that outside our universe, there lies an even bigger universe. We are unable to see it for now, but if the conditions are right, we will be able to find such an universe and observe it."
"Everyone, even though we are in the middle of the lecture, Dr. Asimov will be leaving now." Mimete announced, suddenly turning off the lights. "Charm Buster!" she wasted no time in knocking the audience out. "Appear, Daimon!" she summoned Daimon U-Pasokon from her briefcase. "Now, do it all in one shot, U-Pasokon."
"Preparations complete." U-Pasokon grabbed Dr. Asimov by the shirt. "Suction." she proceeded to suck out the Doctor's Heart Crystal.
"Mimete!" Sailor Moon barked, bursting into the lecture hall with the other Senshi. "Trying to steal the heart of a professor, the treasure of mankind, we won't forgive people like that. Heave knows, the Earth knows and people know. For Love and Justice, I will punish you in the name of the Moon!"
"All you do is talk nonsense." Mimete scoffed. "U-Pasokon, get them."
"Prepare for attack." U-Pasokon changed targets and released a horde of computer mice at the Senshi. "First attack!"
"Red Fist!" Sailor Mars charged up fire on her fist and sent the flames shooting out towards the attacking mice.
"Crimson Shock!" Sailor Jupiter jumped over the seats and slammed the red lightning orb into U-Pasokon's stomach.
"They're still hiding somewhere around here." Sailor Mercury's crystal visor picked up the foreign energy signatures.
"Light Canon!" Sailor Venus' light beam took out the second wave of mice.
"I'm over here too!" Mimete reminded as Sailors Mars and Jupiter continued fighting U-Pasokon. "Charm Buster!"
"Avalanche Defense!" Sailor Mercury slammed her hands on the ground, rising a wall of snow and ice to deflect off the energy beam.
"If I bring back a Pure Heart and defeat these brats, I can make it back into the group." Mimete brought out the Witches Electric Warp machine. "A comeback. U-Pasokon, finish them off!"
"Moon Tiara Action!" Sailor Moon released her magic frisbee at the Daimon, distracting it.
""Crisis, Make Up!" taking advantage of the distraction, Sailor Mercury summoned the Grail's power. "Aurora Execution!" the ice Senshi blasted the powerful blizzard of absolute zero at U-Pasokon, destroying her once the ice block shattered.
"Now, Mimete, give it up." Sailor Moon warned, the Senshi cornered the Witch.
"What are you talking about?" Mimete snorted. "Do you even have that much strength left? I still have the ultimate weapon. Witches Electric Warp! " she turned the warp machine to herself and warped herself into the television. "Now, I, Mimete, will perform onstage! Were you surprised?" she appeared in the presentation screen. "But it's not just my body that grew bigger. This machine makes my power tens of times as strong as well."
"Wonderful, Mimete." Tellu giggled. "You really are wonderful. But it's not good to take someone else's work away, you know. Do you know why our old chief Eudial didn't use that machine?" she taunted, a hand gripping onto the power cord. "One thing about that machine, when you turn off the power while you're in the monitor, you'll be trapped in there forever."
"Stop!" Mimete panicked. "Anything but that!"
"Farewell, idiot." Tellu smirked and pulled the plug, damning Mimete into oblivion. Laughing, she then vanished.
