Chapter 22

Christmas Chopping part. 4

Strife she still has the staff positioned above Sailor Saturn ready for the kill she then thrust the staff down. Strife then thrust down but also is leaning her body forward, as she does that Saturn, she props her right foot to Strife's body and then shoots out with her left foot upward. Her left foot connects with Strife's head and Strife is staggered. Saturn she then rolls toward her fallen Scythe. Sailor Saturn then stands up then gets into a fighting position with the Scythe.

Sailor Saturn says, "Alright now for round two."

Strife she has from her exposed mouth with some blood trickling from the lips, she then spits on the ground and then takes up her staff and points it at her.

Strife says, "Yes, your last."

Both then contact their staffs constantly both are blocking and striking out at each other. Strife then in the combat tries to get into some low strikes as she swings her key staff to try and sweep or even damage Saturn's legs with swings or thrusts. But Saturn she commits low blocks with the front of her staff and the last thrust Strife pulls off, Saturn then does a low block pick up her right leg. Saturn is standing one legged while she commits to the low left block.

But then Saturn puts her right foot down and sweeps Strife's key staff in a counterclockwise motion with the front of her Scythe, then once Saturn produces her opening, she then swings and hits Strife with the unbladed end of her Scythe. The unbladed end of the Scythe connects with Strife's head which despite wearing a helmet the blow has staggered her senses.

Strife she then shakes it off and gets into position again but then Saturn pulls off a fast move by making a small soft downward strike with the bladed end of her Scythe and the Scathe blade when it goes down makes a small cut on Strife right thumb. This causes Strife to wince in pain and drop the right end of her staff but also lean her body a little. Saturn has another opening and then strikes with her unbladed end at the back of Strife's neck and head.

Strife then is on her knees and let's go of her key staff, then Saturn she does a vertical side twirls with her Scathe and then at one moment, strikes at Strife once more with the unbladed end in an upwards strike which connects to Strife's chin and then Strife goes down and is flat on the ground knocked out. Saturn then puts her Scythe on the ground and then breathes relief.

In another part of the mall, Candy is on the floor reeling from the impact from a throw by Pentagram. Candy sees the mutant strong woman who is completely pink colored all over her body, with a black sleeveless tight body suit, a pink bald mask covering her face and head completely, has only a star pentagram on the face portion of the mask and it's not glowing red. As Pentagram she charges at Candy. Candy presses a button on her gauntlet and then points the gauntlet at Pentagram and the gauntlet shoots out some sort of smoke. The smoke blinds Pentagram momentarily and as soon as the smoke clears, she sees Candy is no longer on the floor. She then hears a distance as she's running a hallway of the mall, Candy then has her right-hand signal to come get her and just as Pentagram gets up, Candy starts to run.

As soon as Pentagram is outside of the smoke, she sees Candy is turning a corner. Pentagram she then starts to run forward toward that corner but once she gets a distance she then slips and hits the floor. Pentagram she shakes her head from the fall to orient herself and she looks and see there are steel ball bearings on the floor. She then kicks them all out of the way in fury, gets up and she chases after Candy once more.

Pentagram says, "All that distance isn't going to do you any good, I'll still going to crush every bone in your body, including the little ones."

Meanwhile, in another area Mabel is fighting Morgiana in another section of the mall, and she dives for cover as Morgiana she fires with her black crescent wand her twilight flash which are light bolts that are instead of the illuminating color are blood red and each of these bolts hit one of the pillars that Mabel takes cover. Mabel then gets out of cover and then points her wrist remote at Mogiana and she discharges her blue remote electro bolts while Mogiana shoots out her twilight flash bolts while both constantly run-on direction. Their bolts keep canceling each other's out while also at times missing and they keep blowing and breaking windows of some shop. Mabel then comes to another pillar and then takes cover and two of Mogiana's twilight flash bolts hit the pillar taking some chunks. Mabel breathes hard and then quickly takes out a small ping pong like ball from a pocket of her costume and then throws it down hard on the ground and it produces smoke which covers the area. Morgiana, she runs right to the smoke cloud but once the smoke clears Mabel is gone.

Morgiana, she shakes her head and has a small, amused smile and says, "C'mon Mabel, I know you can do better than this, you don't want to disappoint me."

Suddenly Morgiana she is hit by a frisbee on the side, Morgiana then catches the object with her left hand, looks at it and sees it's a disc golf frisbee. And she sees Mabel who has another Disc Golf Disc in her hand, and she says, "Yeah, I know want to give me a go."

Morgiana she then takes up the disc and realizes what she's getting at and says, "Sure why not."

Morgiana she is walking in a very sleek walk with her hips swinging. She then moves her hand up in front of the doorway of a store in her pathway. The store lights up with blue neon light and then the double doors swing open and then Morgiana she then just walks right though. Mabel she then breaths a sigh hoping she knows what she's even doing and then she along with and Morgiana they both come to a doorway.

Mabel, she comes out of the other side of the portal, and she sees she's in some sort of contained arena which is all dark but there is some bright neon light to give it dimension as there are cross section lights on the floor which make it look like she's standing on a big grid. Suddenly a square Mabel is standing over glows light neon blue. And then there is another square from across from her and she sees Morgiana.

Morgiana says, "Ah this really is more my kind of game."

Morgiana from her right hand she holds it up, palm open and suddenly something appears above her open right hand and it's a disc shaped object that is lit with a neon purple glow. Mabel she then from something attached to her belt and its Sailor Moon's tiara, the jewel from the tiara then glows and then floats up from Mabel's right hand, it starts spinning clockwise and then it glows bright in golden light and then turns into a disc shape.

Morgiana says, "I guess it's fitting that the Sailor Moon of the times of the ancients would challenge me, this will be a great match and a fitting end for you."

Morgiana she then throws her purple disc it comes toward Mabel in a curved purple light trail but also Mabel the takes the Moon Tiara disc with both her hands and deflects the purple disc away from her and then she throws the Moon Tiara at Morgiana, but Morgiana does a cartwheel to the right to dodge the throw. Morgiana's purple disc comes back to her and then both Morgiana and Mabel they both throw their discs at the same time and both disc's come toward each other and deflect in midair.

Meanwhile in one section of the mall, both Soos and Shadow Dancer they are dodging and deflecting the constant things being thrown at them from the second floor by Congo. Congo is throwing down some fruit, coconuts, barrels, letters, all behind some small rainbow-colored brick wall and he even takes a couple of the bricks from the one green another orange and throws it at the two which just fly clockwise toward them. Both Soos and Shadow Dancer just get out of the slow bricks way but once they hit the ground, they explode which knocks both off balance. Congo he then just makes a Tarzan like war cry yell and then just bangs on his abs in apelike fashion and then continues to throw things at them. Congo then takes out a hot dog and then throws it. The hot dog hits Soo's and then Soo's gives out a cry of pain. Shadow Dancer tends to him.

Shadow Dancer says, "What are you crying in pain for, it was just a hot dog."

Soos says, "Yeah but it had hot mustard."

Shadow Dancer then sees Congo is about to throw down a couple more of the colored bricks.

Shadow Dancer he then thinks up something and then says, "Time out, time out!"

Congo then stops his brick throw and then puts them back on the small wall and says, "Alright, but remember one minute."

Shadow Dancer and Soos then come to the side to talk.

Soos says, "You better hurry this is our last time out."

Shadow Dancer says, "Listen I have an idea."

Shadow Dancer then whispers in his ear, Congo tries to hear what their saying and then looks out carefully but then shakes his head in frustration and says to himself, "Darn, too bad I can't read lips."

Congo then sees only Soos was there and then Congo says, "Hey, where's your friend."

Soos says, "He had to use the John."

Congo looks suspicious and then shrugs it off and then takes up one big wood barrel and throws it at Soos. Soos just moves to the side quick and then just whacks the barrel with his giant spatula and it breaks to pieces. Meanwhile Shadow Dancer he was running the hallway of the mall and he goes to another stairwell to the second floor and quickly climbs up it. He then moves very silent until he closes enough distance between him and Congo.

Shadow Dancer he then hides behind a food vender booth and then out of his pocket of his combat vest he then takes out his phone and then goes to an app program and then once he reaches the program he then stands up and sneaks near Congo and then he. Congo though hears him and then turns to his left and then has on his right hand a small mini wood barrel which is labeled fire ants. Just as Congo was about to throw it, Shadow Dancer he presses play on the app. Congo he suddenly hears the music which is the theme song to an old sitcom "Just the Ten of Us."

Congo he is still taken aback hearing the theme song.

Congo says, "That's the most beautiful thing, I've ever heard."

Shadow Dancer says, "That's right, remember this show, it all started for you when you…well you were a smaller age back then but anyway in your dimensional travels it was the 80's decade for you the sitcoms we're your gold mine."

Congo looks curiously at the tape being played and then Shadow Dancer continues.

"And in this mine, you found this show, you we're one of the fans of this show and were heartbroken when it was canceled, which was why for months you went on a long quest to the alternate realities to find where it wasn't canceled."

Congo comes a little closer.

"You sometimes hold some marathons of the show and it's one of the shows both you and Gretchen love to watch especially during the holidays for its Christmas episodes and your Christmas wish is to make the show part of a theme park you want to create in Vancouver, Canada."

Congo, he begins to drop the small barrel he has on his right hand, and he then starts to walk toward the music very slowly. Dancer then gently gives Congo the phone and then hooks up and puts some on him and even guides him on the app and the multiple 80's sitcom theme list. Soos comes up the second floor and joins Dancer.

Soos says, "Wow, dude I can't believe that worked how did you know?"

Shadow Dancer says, "First of all I knew Congo was Silent Jim because he never is without that black trench coat of his; but also Silent Jim always had a soft spot for the classic 80's sitcoms."

Soos says, "But Congo doesn't operate logically."

"Soos, as a fellow fan you don't have to be logical to enjoy "Just the Ten of Us" or any other 80's sitcom created on God's green earth."

Soos takes a beath and says, "Thank god that show was created."

Both Soos and Shadow Dancer they both then give each other five and then they help escort Congo away as

Meanwhile, Mabel and Morgiana both are continuing to trade off throws and blocks with the discs. Morgiana has formed three purple discs from her hand and throws all the in different directions. Mabel, she deflects one of the purple discs Morgiana throws, she blocks one coming from the front of her and another from behind her, and one that is coming to the right of her she just whacks away with the tiara like a tennis racket.

Morgiana brings all three purple discs together in her hand and she throws them again, Mabel then sees two of the purple discs they come toward her from her right, but she executes a roll to the right before they zip toward her in seconds. But there is a purple disc to the left she fails to see, and it comes toward Mabel's left exposed flank.

Mabel hears the whiz of the disc, and she dives to her left, but she's a few seconds short as the purple disc grazes her right thigh and she goes down. Mabel feels the burning pain on her right thigh despite a graze it still hurt like a hot knife, the tiara she welded has slid a few feet away from her hand that let go of it reacting to the pain of the graze and the tiara just stops spinning and turns into an ordinary tiara. Mabel sees Morgiana come toward her. Mabel comes up with a new strategy and fast, she fishes for something from her right pocket.

Morgiana she then walks toward Mabel saying, "You were very good Mabel, but now the game is over."

She brings up one purple disc from her right hand and then is about to throw it on Mabel to finish her off and then Mable she brings up a photo. This photo stops Morgiana on her tracks and she sees it's her in her human form within her skin was white and she wore her long hair with two long locks that went down with two rolls of hair that looks like meat buns or meatballs both holding the locks. She then looks at the person she's holding next to her a young man who is in a Dark Green Jacket and wearing black T Shirt and gray trousers. He has black hair that covers his blue eyes silently. Morgiana she comes near weakly but once she is about only a couple of steps from Mabel, Mabel she then hands her the photo.

Mogiana takes it and just looks at it and then she slowly forms some words and talks in her regular human voice again.

Mogiana says, "M…M…Mamoru."

Mabel then stands herself up and then limps to her and then puts her right hand on her shoulder.

Mabel says, "Lets go find him together, Usagi."

Morgiana/Usagi she then looks at Mabel again and her eyes change back to her normal blue eye color.

Meanwhile, Pentagram she pushes the clear double doors out of her way violently and she was Candy, she keeps herself in motion but also types some other buttons on the gauntlet and soon the wave pool it is in motion, Pentagram looks and is hit by one of the waves, but it barely moves her. Once another wave hits, Candy then converges and tackles Pentagram. Pentagram is barely moved by the tackle but then with the combination of the waves she is shaken enough to lose her balance and she goes down into the water.

Both Candy and Pentagram are underwater, and both are struggling with each other, Pentagram pushes Candy down on the floor of the water. Candy struggles a bit as Pentagram has her pin with her arms but Candy, she immediately kicks with both her feet, and it aims for the shins but also the knee joint. This staggers Pentagram and makes her loosen her grip on Candy and then Candy she then swims right in between her legs passing right though and then gets when she turns around Candy then gets both her hands in a knife hand position and then thrust both hand with the edges contacting the back knees. This puts Pentagram off balance and then Candy immediately takes both legs in her arms and then pulls and then Pentagram falls slowly and hits the surface of the wave pool. After Pentagram is knocked out, Candy then swims and takes her up to the surface for air.

Both Talon and Abesethibod are in the World Water Park, Talon he runs chases Abesethibod. Abesetthibod he then suddenly just jumps really high. Talon then looks and sees how he is just flying and then lands on an upper platform of one of the waterslides. Talon looks and is amazed by this and then says, "Damn, even I can't jump that high."

Talon then goes to the keypad of his bionic arm and types in a few keys which is an override which activates the power of the whole waterpark, suddenly there is some water flowing on all the water sides along with lights that illuminate the while facility. Talon then undoes his black cape and ones he's freed of it he just takes the stairs and is running up and he gets to the platform. He looks and sees it's unoccupied, Talon looks around with his sensors trying to pick up on his whereabouts. But then suddenly he looks a direction and it's too late as he sees its Abesethibod who is swing on a chain wrapped around a water slide from above and both his feet connect with Talon.

Talon then goes down on the platform ground hard, Absethibod he then lands on the ground and then unwraps the chain, the chain it reels back and then goes completely inside the darkness of his red cape. Abesthibod he then puts up his right foot and there are two small knives that retract from the sole of the boot. Talon he sees this and as it comes down, he rolls out of the way and the blades they just make indentations on the platform.

Talon he stands up, Abesthibod he picks his right foot up and the blades they retract from the soles, but then he immediately he throws a projectile at Talon. The projectile is a black rose which comes straight toward Talon; but the black rose it suddenly explodes. Abesthibod he is surprised by this, and he sees its Talon who has his bionic arm, but his right hand supports it as his left bionic arm has transformed into a machine gun muzzle.

Abesthibod he then throws a few more of his black roses at Talon but Talon he can shoot each of them with a sing shot. This gives Aesthibod some time to draw out his machine gun from behind his red cape, Talon sees this and then immediately tackles him and then both they go down the water slide that has activated.

Crimson Talon and Abesethibod both are sliding down and as both are wrestling as there are getting pulled by the water slide. Both have guns trained on each other and both are shooting at one another as both are trying to misdirect each other's guns either trying to unload the clips in them or even lucky to have one bulleted delivered to one another, but each bullet just makes another hole onto the water slide and then they come to an end and splash right into the pool.

Both Talon and Abesethibod get up and then he sees draws out a big knife and Talon from his right leg, he pulls off the Velcro sleeve, unfacens the leg holster and then draws out his combat knife he has with his right hand. He looks at the knife that Absetthibod has which is about the size of a short sword, and he says to himself, "Damn, I knew I should have brought a bigger one."

Both are circling each other and then their both swinging their knives and at times the knives make contact. Both then soon converge on each other Absethibod he tries to stab at Talon but Talon he catches the thrust with his free left hand, same with Talon trying to take a stab at Absethibod whom catches Talon right knife hand. Both are circling while maintain their hold on each other. Abestibod he immediately makes a jump and kicks in midair at Talon with both feet which connect with Talon's midsection.

Talon is thrown by the kick, and he splashes into the water which makes him lose the knife. Abestibod sees his chance and charges after Talon, but Talon he immediately rolls out of the way as Abestibod he drives and thrust his knife only hitting the ground. As Talon gets up, Abestibod he swings his knife violently upward diagonal and the blade grazes Talon in the right shoulder. It's not a deep wound but it still hurts as Talon he holds his arm with his left bionic hand.

Abestibod, he gets up but Talon he immediately executes a right hook kick which connects with his face and the blow staggers Abestibod. Mabel she imediately comes through the double doors of the water park along with Morgiana/Usagi. Mabel immediately sees Talon and then she takes something out and says, "Darien, catch."

Mabel throws the object toward Talon and Talon catches it with his right hand and he looks at it and sees it's a locket with a crescent moon symbol. Talon is a little puzzled for a moment but then it immediately clicks, and he then knows what to do. He sees Abestibod recover and then make a charge toward Talon but then Talon he then carefully opens the locket and then it immediately the crescent symbol lights up and a tune play.

Abestibod he then stops and as he has paused his movement the sound of the tune and even the light of the locket it comes through to him and then he soon loses his grip on his knife and just drops it in the water. Abstibod he just stands there listening to it, Dipper then comes close to him slowly and then he puts the locket in his right hand. As Abestibod is looking at it seeing the crescent is spinning in a clockwise motion, she is suddenly remembering the moon kingdom on the very night before Christmas her love Endymionon the Earth prince, gave her a locket as a present. How opening it, hearing it's music and touching her cheek with the palm of his warm hand. Abestibod with his neon glowing red eyes he then looks at the locket and then Dipper escorts him out of the pool, as they come to shore Mabel she then joins and helps escort Abestibod out of the waterpark.

Abestibod/Mamoru he then walks up to Mogiana/Sailor Moon she then walks near him and then has her right hand on his chest. She then looks and sees an unfamiliar uniform as there are a silver cross on it and she looks up and sees the persons face and it's a mask. She almost jumps back as it's unfamiliar. But she doesn't as she recognizes the eyes behind that mask. She almost jumps back as it's unfamiliar. But she doesn't as she recognizes the eyes behind that mask which are as blue as hers and as warm. She puts her hand slowly to pull up the mask and sees his face. Which looks the same, but the flesh is all grey and a little decayed, but the eyes are still alive and bright blue.

Morgaina/Usagi says, "Despite all that's happened, I still know it's you and they can never take away what we feel for each other."

She then gets up on her tip toes and then places her lips on his, Abestibod/Mamoru doesn't kiss back at first but then suddenly his hand is gently on Morgiana/Usagi's back and rub the back very gently. Abestibod/Mamoru then finds himself closing his eyes and then kissing back and it gets deeper and more intense as the memories and everything about him and both flood back along with her. Soon both break off the kiss and they look at each other and see how different both look.

Mamoru says, "Nice look, blue's a good color, though the only thing missing are the dumplings, dumpling head."

Usagi says, "Never thought I would miss hearing you say that, think you can say it to me one more time."

"Dumpling Head."

After hearing that again both have a little laugh together and then continue to hug one another.

Meanwhile in another part of the mall, Dipper he runs, and he looks around and sees he is alone. He is at the "Galaxy Land Amusement Park" and as he looks, he suddenly sees all around him there is power all around him and most of the rides are now operated from the "14 story triple looping red roller coaster" to the "Galaxy Orbiter" roller coaster which goes all over the mall.

Dipper he back up to a small gate and there is the carousel that he is behind. He then suddenly hears a howling and then suddenly sees Gevaudan is coming his direction on all fours. Dipper he then goes through the gate, and he gets on the Carousel that is in motion and it is taking him on direction. Gevaudan she leaps over the gate blocking the Carousel and then swipes at Dipper but only scratches a horse.

Gevaudan she is looking and is trying to see though the constant moving horses, but she picks up the sent quickly and then just makes a small sprint though some passing horse and sees Dipper is in the center of the Carousel. Dipper is simply just standing there just looking at her with no fear in his eyes but a warmth to them. Gevaudan as she sees just looks at him curiously wondering if he's pulling some sort of trick.

Dipper then just raises his arms and closes his eyes; Gevaudan is once again puzzled by this behavior and growls a little and barks a bit at Dipper just trying to entice him to run, attack her, make some move to justify the kill and make the hunt rewarding. Losing her patience Gevaudan starts to bar her teeth, open and then she put her head near Dipper. Dipper who was expecting to feel the cold bite of death he feels a warmth on his right shoulder, and he opens his eyes and its Gevaudan head on his shoulder, her eyes closed and just rubbing her head on his shoulder. Dipper he then slowly puts his hands around her neck and puts his head close to her and closes his eyes.

Dipper then says, "Wendy."

Both are in this position for the longest time as the music from the carousel is playing and a lot of noise from the carnival is going on, both don't hear it as they feel the only people in the world.
