Mars struggled to get up and attack. "You won't get away with this!", she declared weakly.
But her opponent smiled. "I already am. Flytrap's venom has turned many of the populace into Youma under our control. When the time is right, we will awaken them and launch an attack against humanity as a whole. And I can stop you talking out against our operation, thanks to Flytrap's audio scrambling powers."
"DO YOU REALLY THINK WE'LL JUST SURRENDER LIKE THAT? YOU'RE MISTAKEN!" Mercury said, not realising she was shouting.
"You see?" Kyurene indicated her partner "He's amplified your vocal chords to constantly shout."
Then Flytrap spoke "Now let's shake things up a bit, remove your spaces and make words fit."
"OHCRAP, ", Jupiter strained, her transformation now worse. She had bristles on her head, feelers growing out of her cranium and her arms were turning into mandibles. Ultimately, she would end up as a humanoid locust.
"And reverse." The female moved her hand backwards.
"RETIPUJ, GNIYRT ER'EW. OD EW NAC TAHW TUB?", Mars tried to stress as best as she could.
Flytrap lifted up into the air. "Now, let's take things a bit more far. Time to bring in more co-stars." With that, the denizens of the club began turning into monstrous, animalistic beasts. One resembling a tiger jumped at the Scouts, shooting fire. Mercury and Mars barely managed to dodge in time.
"It's all over for you girls.", the Youma said, still taunting them instead of actually killing them, like a predator on the wild. Then someone few a speaker at the woman knocking her down. Taking advantage of this distraction, Mars and Jupiter launched their attacks at her.
"ETINGI, LUOS ERIF SRAM!"
"HSARC, REDNUHT EMERPUS RETIPUJ!"
Their attacks flew threw the air and hit Kyurene dead on, destroying her. Flytrap instantly dropped down to the floor, his brain having shut down. The voices of the Sailors returned to normal.
Mercury decided to explain what had happened. "As an insect, he's dependent on a signal from a queen, who gives him orders. Since you killed his current queen, he's left without any orders, which shut down his neural impulses."
Mars was becoming impatient. "Look, lets skip the exposition and just kill him before his victims are transformed permanently." She launched another fireball and destroyed him. All his victims, Jupiter included, collapsed to the floor, the effects of the venom wearing off. Other than Mars and Mercury, there was only one other person standing; Ryo, the boy Ami had brought with them.
"Thanks for the help.", Mercury said with (false) sincerity.
"Don't thank me.", he replied, seeing through her masquerade. Then he turned towards Mars. "Be careful with who you trust.", he warned before departing. Mars was left to wonder why he left without waiting for them to "come back from the toilet", and what he meant by those words.
