Sorry the last 2 chapters fell a bit
short, this one should be longer I promise!
Special thanks to: Kuraino Hotaru Megumi: Cool you're my first Chapter 2 Official Reviewer. Lol. Actually this isn't the real Hotaru, this is Chibi-Hotaru, so I can change the ages a bit. I heard from my brother that he's fourteen during the Cell Saga, so I kinda stuck with that. She's nine-ish when she gets trapped in the dimensions, and a few years pass, so she's about eleven. That clear up some stuff? ^_^ Sailor_V_Light: Cool name! Big, fat, dark kingdom meanie? *bursts out laughing* I'm sorry but that just sounds really funny! I don't know, I haven't seen her in many episode's but think about it. You've been traveling through portals for over two years, shouldn't you be a little ticked off? I guess she could loosen up a bit. But, in this chapter you'll see a definite solution to your problem. hehehe... ssj2songohan: That's a real first. You know? People don't regularly like author's mode of 'suspense'. You do have a point though, but most people don't like the fact that they can't keep writing because, us, overworked people can't keep up. Thanks for the review. Here's you reward! Me with the four E's: Yeah I'm getting that same question. If you just read this chapter (meaning IV) I'll explain it all. Merina: Wow! I'm so glad you like it. Thanks so much for reviewing. I'm sorry everything comes out so slow, my computer is virused and I hafta go to the library everytime I want to put it into word format. Kinda suckie. Lady Iapatus: I know, I know. Setsuna Meiou, or Meiou Setsuna is her name, as for your other question I'll answer both of them in the chapter after this one. I've already written most of it.
*Previously*
"Now, Hotaru, steal their
energy!"
"SATURN PLANET POWER!
MAKEUP!"
*Part
3: The Power Inside; Finding Fireflies*
Gohan leapt up from his place on the
chair. The rest of the fighters coming alert as well.
"Pluto
Planet Power! MakeUp!"
"Hotaru,"
Gohan asked taking one careful step forwards.
Sailor
Saturn's eyes narrowed, she tripped him with her glaive and put two fingers on
his forehead. Gohan glowed with the same purple aura that surrounded Saturn. He
screamed in pain as he felt all the energy drain from him. It was if she had
cut a wound and taken his blood out forcefully.
"Stop
that!" Vegeta and Mirai Trunks powered up to Super Saiya-jin.
"We
apologize. His energy is ours," Sailor Pluto said calmly. "Do not
threaten us. You saw what happened to that bug, you can't even compare to our
powers."
"Of
course we can, you caught us at a bad time." Vegeta threatened.
Without
even looking behind her, Sailor Saturn said lazily, "Glaive Excitement Ray
Blast!"
"FINAL
FLASH!"
"Leave
her alone! DEAD SCREAM!"
The
end result was Vegeta up a tree.
*~*~*
Gohan
looked up, he could barely keep his eyes open. He wanted to give in to sleep,
but his mind had other plans. Why was she attacking him again? What happened to
that sweet little girl he met before? She was stealing his power he knew that.
But if he broke away he didn't want to hurt her, or, the other way around.
"Gohan!"
Goku's voice sounded in his mind. "Wake up! It's not what she is, it's
what she was!"
Gohan
used every remaining part of his power and shoved her hand off his head,
rocketing into Super Saiya-jin mode. He jumped to the side, avoiding her blade.
"What happened? You helped us before?"
"Gohan
get away from her! She's evil!" Piccolo shouted.
Piccolo's
voice echoed in his ears, he heard him, but felt so distant. "You're not
getting any more energy from any of us!"
"Don't
count on it." Sailor Saturn raised her Silence Glaive, "gather here
power!" In the nook of the glaive purple ki began to form. Energy was
sucked out of every person present. All of the non saiyan's and Baby Trunks
fell to the floor instantly drained. Gohan covered his face as the wind picked
up and dust and debris blew into his eyes. He watched as the girl turned her
glaive in a circle.
"Gates
of the Universe. I have come before you filled with energy needed for my
mission. Open the almighty Door of Charon! Accept my payment!" She let go
of the glaive and watched as a dark garnet colored door opened and sucked it
inside. It spit out the glaive, but no one heard it clatter against the ground
over the winds.
The
answer she recieved was in a dull, droning tone with absolutely no emotion.
"Payment accepted for two persons. Enter, but heed my warning. You must
both enter at the same time or else."
The
doors opened wide. Sailor Pluto and Saturn walked towards the ajar doors.
Gohan's
eyes widened. They were escaping with stolen energy. The life energy of all his
friends. First his father, now everyone else. His rage exploded in a fury that
matched the rising wind. Just as the firefly girl was about to take her final
step Gohan tackled her with all the strength he had. His power burst freely through
his body as his hair grew and muscles expanded. She lost her balance and
toppled sideways to the ground. Her companion stared at her in disbelief, but
her foot had already touched the ground inside the door. Her body was sucked in
against her will.
Sailor
Saturn threw the boy off of her and ran to the door as it vanished before her
eyes. "SETSUNAAA!!! NOOOOOOO!" Her transformation in her "battle
stage" reversed and she was reduced to a sobbing pile on the ground.
*~*~*
"Bulma,
is she coming around?" Gohan whispered, praying he wouldn't wake up the
girl.
"Hotaru
is fine. If that even is her true name. God when she used that energy draining
thing I had just came outside, I got cold and--" Bulma shivered.
Hotaru
squirmed in her bed. "N-no! Meiou!"
"Who's
this Meiou she keeps mumbling about?" Bulma asked, placing another cold
cloth on Hotaru's forehead. "Gosh, she's still burning up."
Gohan
scratched his chin thoughtfully. "If I remember right, it's that other
lady that got into the portal."
"I
thought her name was Michiru Kaiou, lying little brats."
"Setsuna
Meiou as I recall."
"'Tsuna!"
Hotaru said sitting up wide awake. "Where is she, where is
Meiou-sensei?"
"Miss
Kaiou left, through some door. Gohan saw it." Bulma pushed her head back
down. "You've got quite a fever, plus you hit your head when you
fell," she lightly touched a large bandage. "Sleep some more."
Hotaru
unwinded the gauze and touched the skin, her purple aura returned and vanished
as she healed herself. Light pink skin took it's place. She sat up from the
bed, ignorant to the fact that she was only in a skimpy nightgown. She walked
calmly past the two and down the stairs to stop outside, Gohan and Bulma
following in her wake. She turned around so sharply that the two jumped.
"Please. I'm going to revert into my other form. I have to get back to
Miss Meiou, I have to, to get home. Go inside or she may hurt you. I'm terribly
sorry what happened before but it was only temporary, I should have enough of
my own energy to do it again. Please go inside."
"Well!
I'm leaving!" Bulma knew this kid meant business. "Good luck Hotaru,
if you don't have enough energy to spare, take Gohan here, he's a strong little
guy, just leave Bulma the Beautiful alone, kay?"
Hotaru's
stare remained like ice. "I can't promise anything Miss Bulma, please go
inside, tell everyone to stay in."
"Um,
okay, if that's what you want. C'mon Gohan."
Why
do we take her apologies so readilly, Vegeta has left her alone as for the
other fighters, what is it about her that makes everyone forgive her so fast? I
know Bulma's just plain scared, but am I? Am I really scared too? Gohan looked into her eyes. Her
eye's reflected her sad feelings, no he wasn't afraid of her. But then why was
he agreeing with her? Gohan sighed and followed Bulma inside, powering into
Super Saiya-jin mode incase things got out of hand.
Hotaru
turned to make sure no one else was there that Sailor Saturn could hurt. She
pulled out her planet earring and held it in one of her hands, throwing the
other one into the sky. "Saturn Planet Power! MakeUp!"
Sailor
Saturn could only guess what had happened the previous day. But she knew that
her current mission was to get back to her time, regardless of the opposing
forces. And that was exactly what she was going to do. But she held a grudge
against this world, the citizens were extremely annoying. She might just kill
them as a going away present. "You foolish people standing up to the
rightful heir or Saturn. Die and think about what you have done to me. SILENCE
WAVE!"
"No!"
Gohan yelled and shot outside. He cupped his hands together, "Ka Me Ha Me
HAAAAAA!!!" The attacks hit, each of them throwing their all into it.
"Bulma!" he struggled to say. "Get everyone over here, I can't
hold it any more!"
"Right!"
"Foolish
earthling, you cannot hold you own to me. Only Queen Serenity can command me,
but still her powers are nothing compared to mine."
"You're
the foolish one," Gohan grunted. "I'm no earthling, I am a saiya-jin
warrior, just like my father! Take this!" he shouted pouring more into his
wave. What would Daddy do in a problem like this? He would try everything,
everything and anything to stop her. The spirit bomb. Daddy almost got Freeza
with that thing, but how can I form a spirit bomb? Saturn's attack was
crushing his almost to nothing. He whispered what he thought the code words
were. "Power of earth, lend me your energy, gather here." He imagined
every part of the earth giving him their immense powers right into his open
hands. The Kame Hame Ha grew but it was still no match. Daddy, I'm sorry,
I'm losing to an eleven year-old girl, forgive me... Gohan let go of the
blast as the silence wave washed quietly over him, where is everyone? I'll
see you Daddy, I love you.
"NO!"
I
love you everyone, Mom, Dad, Bulma, Trunks, Mr. Piccolo, even you Vegeta. So
long.
"Please
Saturn, I am a Saturnarian as well, don't do this, don't harm another person of
earth. You and me are the same, just get into the portal so we can find Meiou.
Queen Serenity would want this. Then you can reek the destruction of that cold
bastard Manzelle to your heart's content. Please don't do this!"
I
love you everyone, Mom, Dad, Bulma, Trunks, Mr. Piccolo, even you Vege-- What
the hell?
"Stop
Saturn, don't hurt any more people, they deserve to live, it's just entertainment
reason's that you're doing this! Complete your mission!"
"Blasted
brat! Why can't I ever just get rid of you? Huh? You're so damned irritating!
Bugger off!"
Meiou,
why can't you be here, to calm her down? Hotaru thought sadly.
~Because,
firefly, I'm not here, but listen to me, if you find the fireflies you will
never be lost. Ever. For once, find one of the three fireflies inside of you
and use it against Sailor Saturn. I reached home, I made it. Now I'm waiting
for you, Hotaru Tomoe. Find all three and you can join me. Hurry up Hotaru...~
Hotaru
knew she had heard Pluto, it wasn't just a daydream or a hallucination, it was
real. And Meiou had made it! She had to find these three fireflies. And there
was one inside of her. Suddenly she felt it.
It
was the most blissful feeling ever. A light fluttering of ethereal wings
flapped inside of her, up and down. Giving her new hope. Her strength was
rejuvenated. The tiara on Sailor Saturn's forehead shattered, the actual symbol
of Saturn embolished in it's place. Sailor Saturn blinked, when her eyes
reopened they were no longer hers, but Hotaru's. The soldier outfit melted away
to reveal the nightgown, Hotaru toppled out of the sky and onto the ground next
to Gohan who fainted from lack of energy...
Phew!
Another chapter is out. Hmmm, time to
start part 4, ne? Might as well. Ja ne!
