Dimension, Part Two
By
Angel Raye
Everyone sat in shock as the children disappeared right before their eyes. Raye was the first one to break the silence. "Annika," she screamed and she dashed toward the rift. She tried to enter only to get flung back. She started to get up again but Lita quickly grabbed her.
"No Raye," she shouted. "Whatever this thing is will not let us in."
"She's right," Hotaru added. "We will have to find another way to rescue the children."
"I am still analyzing this," Amy reported. "Maybe I can find a way to rescue the children."
"Well let's hurry up," Haruka said impatiently.
"How can you stay so calm Amy," shrieked Raye. "I can't just stand by and do nothing."
Amy turned to Raye. "My child is missing too," she stated icily. "Every ounce me wants to scream but I know I am not going to help Ariel if I do that. We have to come up with a rescue operation and we are not going to do the children any good if we panic."
"Sorry," Raye muttered. "I just know my Annika has got to be scared to death right now."
Serenity placed a comforting hand on Raye's shoulder. "We'll find them," she assured her best friend. "In the meantime why don't you do a fire reading. Maybe you'll find something out that way."
"Good idea," Raye agreed. She left the room to go to her quarters.
Rini arrived. "Mom what is going on," she asked.
Serenity quickly filled Rini in on what happened. Rini paled. "We have got to rescue them," she cried.
"We are trying to find a way now," Serenity assured her.
"Haruka look," gasped Michiru as she held up a drawing Hope had been working on.
Haruka took the paper from Michiru and gasped. It was a picture of the same rift that appeared in the ballroom. "Could she have seen it before hand," Haruka asked. "What does this mean?"
"I don't know," whispered Michiru. She lay her head on Haruka's shoulder and quietly prayed for their daughters' safe return.
Raye sat in front of the fire trying to get a reading on the rift that had taken Annika and the others. So far nothing but she was picking up a very familiar presence.
"Mama," called a voice.
Raye's eyes snapped open, "Annika?"
"Mama," the voice called again. Raye looked up and saw an image of her daughter in the fire.
"Annika," she called. She started to reach out for her child and then realized she was only looking at an image. "Annika baby are you all right?"
"I'm scared Mama," Annika replied. Raye realized that the voice was inside her head. "But we are all alive here."
"Where are you," asked Raye.
"In another dimension," Annika replied. "You have to come and rescue us."
"We are trying to find a way Darling but the rift won't let the adults through," Raye glumly informed the image.
"You must send Rini in," Annika said. "She is the only one who can get us out."
"Is there anything else I need to know," asked Raye.
"Yes that is why I am here," Annika replied. "Please listen carefully." Raye listened to her daughter's instructions.
"Are you sure," Serenity asked.
"Yes," Raye replied. "It is the only way to save the children."
"Serenity," Amy said. "I know we are asking a lot here but if this is the only way to save our children then I beg you to please let Rini do this."
"You don't need to beg," Serenity assured her friends. "I will allow Rini in there."
"Thank goodness," Michiru heaved a breath of relief.
"Let's go find Small Lady," Setsuna stood up. Everyone left the conference room.
"Are you ready Rini," Mina asked as she secured the rope around Rini's waist.
"I am ready," Rini replied nervously.
"The bath is ready for whoever comes out first," Amy informed them. "Are you sure that is what Annika said?"
"That's what she said," Raye replied. "When I asked her why she just said that we would know when they came out."
"All right Rini," said Lita. "All you have to do is pull on the rope when you are ready and we will pull you out."
"Understood," Rini said. She held her breath and stepped through the rift. There was nothing but darkness on the other side. Rini nervously felt her way through. She placed her hands on something and then realized it was a rotted corpse. Bile climbed up her throat and she fought the urge to vomit. It was so cold in here. Rini shivered but continued to feel her way through. Suddenly a small body was placed her arms. Rini could tell it was a child but she could tell who it was. Remembering her instructions she yanked the rope. She got pulled back and she found herself in the palace ballroom gasping for breath.
"Ariel," Amy shrieked snatching the child out of Rini's arms. Ariel was unconscience and covered with slime. Amy quickly carried the child to her office where the bath was waiting. Everyone followed her. Amy stripped Ariel down and placed her in the bathtub. She began to clean the slime off of her. Everyone watched anxiously. Ariel began to moan and she opened her eyes. "Ariel," cried Amy. "It's all right. Mommy's here."
"Mommy," Ariel weakly whispered.
"Get me a towel," Amy ordered. Lita handed a towel to her. Amy lifted Ariel out of the tub and wrapped her up in the towel. She sat down and held Ariel close to her thankful the child was safe. "Put some of that slime in a test tube. I need to analyze it."
"I got it," called Hotaru as she did what Amy asked.
"Ariel," said Michiru kneeling down beside the child. "What was in there? Who took you?"
"I don't remember," Ariel replied.
"Come on Darling you must remember something," Amy gently coaxed.
"I don't," Ariel sobbed as she buried her head in her mother's shoulder. "I really don't remember anything."
"You must," Raye pleaded but then another voice spoke in her head.
"Mama she really does not remember."
"Annika," Raye gasped. "Why weren't you the one who came out?"
"Raye," Mina questioned but Raye held up her hand.
"I am the only one who can sense Rini's presence when she comes in," Annika replied. "I have to be the last one so that I can give the others to Rini."
"Annika," moaned Raye.
"What is going on Raye," asked Haruka. Raye quietly filled the others what she and Annika just talked about.
"I have analyzed the stuff that was on Ariel when she came through the rift," Amy reported in a meeting later one. "Apparently this is dangerous stuff. It covers its victims and greatly weakens them."
"So that means the later these children come out the weaker they will be," Setsuna concluded.
"Exactly," Amy replied. She glanced over at Ariel who was sitting quietly in the corner reading a book. It had been as though she had never been taken. Ariel was behaving just like herself. Amy on the other hand had grown very over protective of her child and would not let her out of her sight, which was why she was in the conference room right now.
Raye also looked over at Ariel. She was anxious for the others to be rescued so she could have her Annika back. Ariel was sitting there wearing a pair of purple coveralls that used to be Annika's. "Ariel is really a cute kid," thought Raye. Ariel was twirling a lock of her short blue hair cut by Amy herself. Raye was glad the child was back safely.
"It is vital we get all of the kids out of there as soon as possible," Amy continued. "If Annika is going to make sure the others are saved before her then we have got to get her out. Her health is already very fragile so who knows what kind of effect this is going to have on her. If one of the healthier children were doing what she is doing I would be less concerned."
"Then let's not hesitate," Serenity declared. "Let's get Rini and continue the rescue operation."
Rini held her breath as she walked back through the rift. Amy had told her to try and get two girls this time if she could. Trying to ignore the smell of rotting flesh Rini held out her arms hoping a child would be placed in them. She began to send out a thought wave toward Annika, "Please give me two this time."
A small body was placed in her arms. Rini grasped the child with one arm and held out her other. A few minutes later another body was placed in her other arm. Struggling with her armload she managed to yank the rope and she got pulled back into the ballroom. She lay there gasping for breath.
"Madelyn," shouted Hotaru snatching Madelyn out of Rini's arm.
"Daisy," Lita cried and she lifted Daisy out of Rini's other arm.
"Let's get them into the tub," Amy ordered. Everyone followed Amy into her office. In a flash the slime-covered clothes were removed and both girls were in the tub. Lita and Hotaru frantically began cleaning the slime off their children. At the same time both girls gasped for breath.
"Mom," cried Daisy.
"I'm here Darling," Lita pulled the child out of the tub and held her close.
"Mama," moaned Madelyn.
"Here I am Sweetie," Hotaru lifted Madelyn up and began drying her with a towel.
"Do either of you remember anything," asked Serenity.
"No," Madelyn replied.
"Not a thing," Daisy moaned.
Nearby Ariel was watching. A look of fear came to eyes as a buried memory tried to surface.
