Bishoujo Senshi Sailorsayin
Episode 7
The Little Sis' Scenario
*********************************************************************************
"I'm so sorry I didn't tell you girls the truth about the Jou Hari." Pearl said with her head hung, Diamond sat beside her also forlorn.
"You see the Jou Hari takes the place of a persons Heart Crystal when they carry it inside them. And so the Jou Hari is their heart crystal. So since a person can't live without they're Heart Crystal, they die when it is removed." Diamond said sadly and hung his head.
"So we're going to have to kill six more people to find the Jou Ginzuishou?" Jeana asked astonished.
"Yes, I'm afraid so." Pearl said and sadly looked over at the bed where I was curled up sobbing. The sobbing was slowly subsiding and when Pearl said this I wiped my eyes and sat up.
"I quit." I said flatly. My eyes were red from crying.
"What!" They all cried at once staring astonished at me.
"I quit this Senshi business, I can't do it anymore. One of my best friends in the whole world is dead because of it, because of me!" I cried.
Pearl got up and gently padded over to me. "Siconja, I know this is thought for you, but its not your fault, it would have happened anyway. We need you Siconja, please don't back out now." Pearl nuzzled against me and I took her into my arms and held her.
"None of this is your fault Siconja but if you really feel you must quit I'll take your resignation to the council and we'll have to make do without a Sailorsayin." Diamond said sadly. "But remember if you decide to quit and I take it before the council they will strip you of your powers and you will never be able to become Sailorsayin again and your locket will become just like any other brooch. If you decide this you must be absolutely sure." His face became grave but his eyes remained sad.
"I'm sure Diamond." I said looking up and I removed my brooch and placed it on the bed before him. Diamond gazed up at me sadly.
"Then I will take your descion before the council. I wish you the best of luck Siconja." Diamond sighed and in a flash of light he was gone.
*
"Oh Guardians of the Council I stand before you today bearing sad and regrettable news. The leader of the Senshi Guardian Pearl and I have been assigned to has decided to quit, she wants nothing more to do with the Roiyaru no Senshi." Diamond said standing proud in his human form before the Council.
"Is Sailorsayin sure?" Hime, the great white guardian cat of Selene herself, asked him looking down with her sad eyes.
"Yes, Hime-sama, Sailorsayin is sure, she knows of the consequence." Diamond said trying to keep his composure.
"Then the Guardians of the Council shall strip her of the powers she was granted at birth." Hime said and turned her face upwards the universe symbol there glowing, all the other Guardians in they're human form there did the same. Diamond looked about sadly and saw Luna and Artimis sadly smiling at him with Diana next to them in human form but not participating, then they too turned their heads upwards as their crescents glowed. A great white light filled the room. But it suddenly stopped and no ball of energy formed before Hime.
Hime looked up shocked "We cannot strip her of her powers!" She gasped. Mummers quickly rose around the room. Hime silenced them and called for order.
Luna then rose "May I be allowed to speak?" She inquired.
"Yes, Luna of the Moon you may speak." Hime said.
"The only explanation for this is that she is something greater than a Sailor Senshi and must be preserved for the Roiyaru no Senshi to gain their ultimate goal. I suggest that Diamond tells her that she cannot leave and leave it at that." Luna said calmly.
"Granted, Diamond, you shall tell Sailorsayin that she must stay with her Senshi." Hime decreed.
"Yes, Hime-sama." Diamond said, bowed and was gone.
*
"I'm sorry Siconja bu the concil has refused your resignation, I cannot change there descicion!" Diamond snapped for about the hundreth time.
"GET OUT! ALL OF YOU!" I snapped losing my temper and pointing my finger towards the door. Pearl gave me one last affectionate nuzzel and jumped up heading towards the door signalling the others it was time to go. They all left in varing degrees of sadness.
When they were all gone I collapsed onto my bed sobbing "Oh Kami-sama Lita, Gomen Nasai!"
*
"Class today before we begin our lesson I would like to make a annoucement. Its my great misfortune to inform the class that one of our number has left forever. This weekend Lita Yui was hit by a car and killed instantly. If we could observe a moment of silence before we begin class." Miss Tsukino the homeroom teacher said. Everyone in the class bowed their heads, Lita had been well liked.
'Got hit by a car! Thats what they made up as if, they couldn't make head nor heals of it when they found her body with no physical injurys whatsoever. It hardly does her justice, she sacrificed herself so the world could be saved and they're making it out to be her fault.' Kira tought angirly as class started and Miss Tsukino began to take roll.
"Farie, Siconja-Arura?" Miss Tsukino called out. "Where is Siconja?" she looked about confused.
"Siconja's not going to be at school today, her mother let her stay home because of how Lita's death affected her." Kira spoke up respectfully.
"Very well. Fyu, Ascot-Yuyo?" Miss Tsukino went on down the list.
Jeana leaned over and wishpered in my ear "Is that really it?"
"Sarcose, Kira-Malinia?" Tsukino cried out.
"Present!" Kira cried. "Yes! She was making her self throw up yesterday and she took two whole bottles of asprin trying to kill herself, they only barely saved her. This is affecting her more than I thought." Kira wishpered back.
"Thya, Jeana-Inoca?" Miss Tsukino called out.
"Present." Jeana cried before looking away from Kira.
"Taylor, Sarah?" Miss Tsukino called out.
"Ohh newbie where? American too!" Kira cried and turned around in her seat just in time to see a small girl who looked remarkably like Lita said in shy standard speak up.
"Here Miss Tsukino." She said quitely, even her voice somewhat resembled Lita's. 'It's a good thing Siconja's not here.' Jeana thought. 'She'd burst into tears right now, not that I'd balme her this time, it really is uncanny the resemblance between her and Lita.'
Miss Tsukino looked really surprised at her. "Miss Tsukino?" Sarah said questioningly.
"I'm sorry, its just you look remarkably like the late Lita Yui!" Miss Tsukino said stunned.
"Your not the first one to notice, the secretary fainted when she saw me and told me the same thing." Sarah said in that voice.
*
It was lunch time and Jeana and Kira had no intention of letting that American girl, Sarah Taylor get away. Jeana was the first to cacth up to her. Jeana grabbed her by the arm a little rougher than nessicary.
Before Jeana could speak Kira intervined. "Looking for a place to sit?"
"Umm yes actually? None wants to sit near me because of that girl, Lita, who died." Sarah said a little sadly.
"Why don't you sit with us we don't mind." Jeana said once again a little more harshly than nessicary.
"Don't mind her she's always like this." Kira laughed. "I'm Kira-Malinia-Sarcose and this is my friend Jeana-Inoca-Thya." She said her eyes glittering with excitement.
"Nice to meet you, ummm, I'm sorry for saying this but what are you, I mean you have tails and all." Sarah said her face turning red as if she knew she should know this.
"We're Sayins, bakayaro!" Jeana cried leaping up from her seat growling at Sarah.
"SIT Jeana! We're Sayin's like we said. You must not have many of us in America. We're not natural inhabitants of this planet, we emigrated here with our Queen thousands of years ago when a evil force blew our planet, Vajiita-sei up." Kira said explaining to Sarah in a matter of factual tone. "Oh and its not a good idea to take one of us on a moonlit walk if its a full moon."
"Why?" Sarah asked truely interested.
"We transform into giant apes. Jeana and I have never done it because we're careful, part of the responisbility of keeping our tails, we could have them removed and not have to worry but we chose not to, or rather our parents did. Anything else I can tell you." Kira asked her eyes gleeming with the prospect of teaching this girl about her race.
"Umm yeah, why is she so grumpy." Sarah giggled pointing at Jeana.
"Ohh she's a very typical Sayin, perfect Sayin stereo type. Short Tempered(not that I'm not but I'm better at controlling mine), messy pointy hair, stays in place all the time." Kira giggled reaching over to muss it, it popped right back into place demonstrating this. "Coal black eyes, and shorter more compact build. That's inherit of the fact that everyone of us is born with a natural super strenght and if we're taught properly we can devolp something called a 'ki' over time. And no if your wondering no we don't recreate in any different way than you. We're simply built, inside and out more like very highly evolved humans." Kira laughed away wishpering the last part so Sarah had to lean over to hear.
"Cool! So can you guys help me find the Sayin embassadors daughter? I'm supposed to meet her as part of the exchange student process." Sarah said happily.
Kira and Jeana looked uncomfortably at each other and then Kira broke the silence. "Yes, she's my best friend in fact. But it might not be a good idea for you to meet her for a little while. You see she was a rather close friends with Lita Yui, they knew each since they were little. And well she's taking her death rather badly."
"Oh, I see. Well, I guess I'll just have to tell them I couldn't talk to her." Sarah said looking downtrodden.
Kira and Jeana looked at her and then each other. "Well, maybe you could meet her this afternoon but not for long, shes really upset." Jeana said.
"Really?!" Sarah cried excitedly.
*
I sat quietly in my room with all my Sailormoon artbooks out and my drawing pad. I was drawing pictures of us manga style as Lita had always wanted to do. In my own way I was making a tribute to her. I had started with her and was paying special attention to getting it just right, I had to keep alternating between SailorV pictures and Sailor Jupiter pictures. I kept crying and driping onto my papaer so I had to stop, I fell back on my bed, all day my family had been trying to cheer me up but all I could see in my mind was her dieing there in my arms and all I could hear was her scream of pain. So I had let them drag me about the house and cooperating with various attempts to cheer me up.
Eventually they had given up and let me retreat to the solitary confinment of my room. I had cried for a while but then decided it was no good feeling sorry for myself, it wouldn't bring Lita back, nothing would and it was all my fualt. I should just buck up and face that fact, I could never trust myself with the life of anyone, because I would fail. Even if that Concil of Diamond's said I couldn't quit, I will anyway, I'm a danger to others and shouldn't be given the responsiblity.
My locket lay across the room on the floor, that thing brought me all this, if it and Pearl had never showed up Lita would still be alive because I wouldn't have been the one to protect her. Some else would have and they would have done a better job! Lita's locket lay on a small table across the room, a kind of shrine I had made up.
I had already decided I didn't deserve to live, but I still pondered as how to go about this kind of thing. Killing myself was so final, no if I ended it now then I wouldn't suffer enough. No I had to live, live with the pain and the memories of what I had done.
My door creaked open and my mother appeared in it "Siconja dear Kira and Jeana are here. Shall I send them up?" She said softly.
I looked up at her mournfully and sighed "Whatever, sne dthem up. I don't care." My mothers face went pale and unhappy. 'I know being like this disturbs her but I can't help it. It's the way I feel.'
"All right then dear." She shut the door and went back downstairs. Moments later there was a knock at the door. "Yeah." I said flatly. The door creaked open and Kira and Jeana came into the room.
"Hey Siconja, how are you doing?" Kira said softly. She looked so concerned for me. I didn't know why neither of them blamed me for Lita's death, it was so obviously my fault.
"I'm just great Kira! One of my best friends just died and I tired to kill myself. Yep I'm doing real great." I said much more harshly than I'd intended. I couldn't help it anymore.
Kira shrunk back a little at the tone in my voice. But Jeana wasn't so easily intimdated. "You've got to stop blaming yourself. None of us blame you. You did everything you could. Its not your fault. Your just making everyone around you miserable by being like this! Stop feeling sorry for yourself! It's so childish they way your acting!" She burst out, she was angryier than I'd ever seen her. But that had no effect, she was being herself.
"You think I'm feeling sorry for myself!" I said in a low threatining tone. "I'm done being sorry for myself. I don't deserve sympathy. I have every reason to blame myself for what happened. It's my fault, theres only one person to blame and thats me! If had had done everything right then Lita would still be alive." My voice was nearly a snarl.
Kira stepped in front of me and kneeled down to bring her face level with mine. "Siconja, don't take Jeana so seriously. She isn't taking this well and her way of dealing with it is snapping. None of us are taking this well. Your not the only one who's upset. Now Siconja, none of us are blaming you. But you've conviced yourself that its your fault so well that I don't know if I can help you or not anymore. But there is someone outside this room who needs your help. She's supposed to meet with you as part of a exchange program. We only brought her here because she seems like a nice girl and well, I personally don't think this is conicadence. I must warn you she looks a bit like...hell she looks exactly like Lita. Even her voice, like her twin. But its not her, I only wish she was."
Kira then looked at Jeana who nodded and went to the door and said to someone outside. "You can come in now." She stod back as a girl entered the room. I stared astonished, she did look exactly like Lita had. Nothing a thing different.
"Hello, my name is Sarah Taylor." The girl said shyly. Her voice was just like Lita's! I froze as memories of Lita's death flashed through my head. Her scream, that man grabbing her crystal, her in my arms, her dead. I bit my lip to hold back the tears and the scream. It wasn't Lita, it was a girl named Sarah who just happened to look like her.
"Nice to meet you." I said in as calm a voice as I could muster. The likeness was uncanny. With that she launched into a explaination of why she was there. I put on my best fake smile and told her what she needed to know. Then Kira sugessted it was time she left.
After Sarah left Jeana let out a exasperated sigh "Siconja I don't care what you say. You're getting out of here and your going to stop moping. And I don't want to hear anything from you. I told you that I think your a lousy leader but I'm not going to let you sit in here and rot." She said even as I moved to protest.
And i don't know how it happened but in no time they had me out of the house and down the street.
*
Back at Faire house in Siconja's room her transformation brooch that was sitting on the floor began to glow in a lilac light. The brooch sitting of the shrine to Lita answered in its brightness.
*
Jeana and Kira had dragged me into a movie and now we were sitting at Tiyo. I mooped and Kira was telling a joke trying to cheer me up. But of course right then Nicaruagja came up.
"So hows it going Dumpling? I heard 'bout Lita. Thats tough." He said without his usueual cheerfulness.
"Yeah whatever Nicaruagja. Could you just go away." I said without emotion in my voice staring out the window.
Nicaruagja looked stunned that I hadn't juped up and threw him across the room right there and then. He looked to Kira confused.
Kira got up and told him quitely that Lita's death had a serious effect on me. It was obvious she was trying not to let me hear. She also said I was seriously depressed. Well I had a right to be.
Then a amazing thing happened. Nicaruagja bent over me to say something "I'm sorry Dumpling. Let me know if theres anything I can do. Hope you feel better." With that he stood up with a soft smile on his face.
I blinked at him in confusion. With that smile on his face he looked almost handsome. And where had that kind tone of voice come from? Where was his usual sarcastic self? I found myself locked into a stare deep into his dark blue eyes. He gazing back with equal inteansity. There was something about him and I just couldn't look away.
He was the first to break the gaze when Kakarotto called from across the room. "Nicaruagja lets go we're gonna be late." Nicaruagja looked over at him and turned to go.
But before he went he looked over his shoulder and called back to me. "See ya later Siconja." He didn't call me dumpling. For a moment I gazed after him. My eyes followed him as he left the store and passed the window.
"Woah! Earth to Siconja. Come in. What just happned there." Jeana said her own brand of sarcasim absent from her voice.
Kira held her head in her hands with a coy look on her face. "If I didn't know better I'd say that some sparks just flew."
I turned a shocked and defensive face to her and managed to stuer out. "N...N...N..No Way! W..What are you thinking."
"Ohhh Siconja likes Nicaruagja. Big news everybody! They managed to have a conversation without one threatining the other!" Jeana mocked and then cried the last part out for everyone in Tiyo to hear.
"No Way! Thats not how it is at all! I was just shocked thats all!" I proetsted to Kira's giggled and Jeana's singsong voice.
"I don't know Siconja. you looked pretty inteanse." Kira giggled. As I continued to protest and tall girl who couldn't have been more than 13 came over to us.
"Kira? what are you doing here I thought you were..." She dropped off when Kira's laughing face turned to her.
"Oh hi Millela. Yo guys this is my little sister Millela. Isn't she cute!" Kira said with much entusiasm.
I turned with a real smile on my face for the first time in days and said. "Nice to meetcha Millela. I'm Siconja and this is Jeana."
Jeana waved a little at her and said "Hi!"
"I wish you would stop calling me cute in public Kira." Millela said in a hushed voice.
"Why not its true! I don't care how tall you are you're still just so cute." Kira said rumpling her hair which was done up in a ponytail. Millela had the uniform of a lower classmen on, which had no pcoket on it unlike ours.
We chatted for a little while and I felt truely happy for the first time since Lita died. Maybe I should try to go on with life. Maybe things weren't so bad after all, Lita would have wanted it this way wouldn't have she?
But at that moment my happiness was shattered. There was a scream and before us there was a tall man in a black uniform with blond hair.
"Which one of you is it! Which one of you has the Jou Hari!" He screamed blasting every person in sight.
Kira turned to Jeana and nodded. Then she gave me a pleading look. I shook my head, I had given up my title as Sailorsayin. I could not fight again. Besides that I didn't have brooch.
Kira sighed right before she called out her henshin phrase. "VAJIITA PRISM POWER!" She tosses her brooch up in the air and she rasies her hands above her head with her palm touching the back of her hand. Her body suit appears and with a turn so does her skirt. She lifts a leg in the air and her boots appear. She grabs her locket out of mid air and her gloves appear as she places it on her bow. She bends her leg up under her then throws her head back and a point of light forms her tiara gem and the rest of her tiara forms around of it. As final touches a choker and earrings form and she opens her eyes and takes a pose.
Jeana also sighed as she called out her henshin phrase. "OOZARU POWER!" A girl stod there with a wand held above her head. She tosses the wand above her head and spins on her toes and grabs it again a circles her body with it drawing a line of fire around her body and it enfulges her. It clears and she grabs her forehead and her tiara appears and she takes her pose.
Kira and Jeana had tottally forgotten about Millela. She sat there in shock as she wacthed her sister become the current super hero, Sailorvajiita. She turned to me and pointed at them. "You knew about this?" She asked in shock.
"Yes, I knew. At one time I fought with them." I said figuring it couldn't hurt now that she knew.
"But..that means.." Millela sturred as she put two and two toghter. "Your Sailorsayin! But you've gotta help them!" She cried.
"I can't and I wont. I lost the priveledge of being Sailorsayin. I failed in my duty, I cannot risk becoming her again." I said as my face became exceedingly sad.
I simply turned my head and ignored futher protests from Millela. I watched as Kira challeneged Diotmond, the full pressure of leading nw on her shoulders. "Hey blondie over here!" She challeneged. Diotmond turned to her a smirked.
"Two more Sailor Senshi! This is wonderful a chance to eradicate more of you pesky girls. Queen Latifma will be most pleased." He laughed at them. He didn't even seem to care that two girls with incredible powers stood face to face with him.
"Who's Queen Latifma?" Jeana asked trying to keep her composure.
"She's his boss. He works for her whoever she is." I called out.
Diotmond turned to inspect me but no flicker of revonigtion went across his face. "You know a lot for a little girl. Yes Queen Latifma is my misstress. I will help her conquer this world and make the Jou Ginzuishou all hers. I will destroy all thoose who stand in her way. Her darkness willl soon cover this planet and she will have her revenge on that pitful sayin Queen who dared challenege her might." Diotmond cried.
"Whatever buddy! We'll see who'll be ruling this world. I have been charged with a quest to find the Sayin Queen and revive the Jou Ginzuishou for her! I will not give up my quest so easily!" Kir cried out. "Because I am a Sailor Senshi. For Love, Hope, and Justice, a sailor suited pretty soldier! I'm Sailorvajiita! In the name of the Royal Sayins I punish you!"
"I am the firey and energetic soldier Sailoroozaru! May my purifying flames punish you!" Jeana challenged standing by her leader.
"We'll see who will punish who!" Diotmond said as he began to battle them. But as he tried to use his 'Dragon Orbe' against Jeana it flashed like crazy. A look of confusion crossed his face. "Could it be? Yes it must be! You have the next Jou Hari! Well then I must releive you of it."
"No Je...Sailoroozaru!" I cried out nearly saying her name. Just then Pearl and Diamond arrived on the scene.
"Siconja you must transform! Without your help they'll die! If you don't become Sailorsayin he'll get Jeana's Jou Hari!" Pearl cried her voice cracking. She didn't want to loose another Senshi before they even found the Sayin Queen.
"Pearl, I can't. Because I couldn't do my job properly Lita's dead. I can't risk that happening again." I said hanging my head.
"Siconja if you don't transform Jeana WILL die. Kira can't do it herself. Just lke you couldn't. But toghter you can beat him back." Diamond said at first yelling at me in frustration.
Millela stared at us all in shock and anger. "I don't know about you but I'm not going to let them just die!" She screamed and ran towards the pair. As she ran at them and luanched herself at Diotmond a dark green symbol appeared on her forehead.
"Diamond look! The symbol of Kakarott!" Pearl cried. Before she evn made it to Diotmond Millela was knocked back but the symbol still burned brightly on her brow. I was momentarily forgotten as they rushed to help her. As soon as she was sitting upright Pearl did one of her kitty pirotettes in the air. A star-shapped green crystal fell to the ground. It began to flash and quickly began to morph shape. In no time flat it had become a wand with a green handle made out of crystal with rings of gold at the top and bottom. Perched at the top with a pink crystal heart with a ring of gold around it and a symbol like 'y' with curled sides engraved on it, the same symbol that had appeared on her head moments before.
Millela picked it up in fascination "pretty..." she mumered.
"Millela! That is yours! You must use it to help Sailorvajiita and Sailoroozaru fight!" Diamond cired.
Millela turned to him shocked "You can Talk! What do you mean I can't help them, how can this stick help!?" she cried astonished.
"There is no time for explanation now. If you want to help your sister then you must take that wand and yell 'Kakkarott Power!'" Pearl cried looking distraught.
Millela exaimened them and the wand for a second then she stood and lifted the wand above her head and yelled, her dark blue eyes flashing. "KAKKAROTT POWER!"She tosses her henshin wand above her head and spins on her toes and grabs it again flips over witch draws a ring of ice around her. The ice grows into a sphere around here It cracks open and she grabs her forehead to make her tiara appears and takes her pose.
She blinked at her costme which was identical to Jeana's except her colors were different. Where Jeana's was orange hers was a dark green and where Jeana's was red hers was a electric pink. "Wow its just like in anime...I'm a Super Hero!"
"Yes, you are Sailorkakkarott! Mystic Soldier of Ice. Now you must help them, let your instincts guide you, you will know what to do." Pearl said urgently. Millela nodded and ran towards them. Kira was using her body as a sheild against Diotmond's blows. She wasn't about to let him take her Jou Hari.
"Hey you! Why don't you mess with someone who can fight back!" Millela yelled. Diotmond turned to look at her with a furious look on his face. "Yeah thats right buddy! You think I'm gonna let you beat up fellow Senshi? I don't think so! I am the icey and passionate soldier Sailorkakkarott! My freezing ice will send you searching for the truth!" Millela blurted out in a simaler fashion as me when I first fought.
"Another Sailor Senshi! Where do you keep coming from!" Diotmond nsarled turning away from Kira and Jeana. With that he threw an atack intended to knock her out but she spryly sprang away. Diotmond coninued in frustration trying to hit her. In the process she got in several good blows. After a particularlly powerful blast she stepped back and began to call out an attack.
"Kakkarott!" She twirled and ice began to dance around her body. She cuped her hands behind her back and the ice swirled around and gathered into her palms. "Icestorm!" She spun around and released the ice at Diotmond.
Diotmond wasn't expecting this and it sent him realing back with chunks of ice all over. This attack obviously wasn't as powerful as Jeana's 'Oozaru Firestorm!' He quickly broke free and snarled at her sending a huge blast of energy. This attack was too fast for her and she was sent hard into the wall. Diotmond hovered over her laughing at her weakness. "Your no match for me. Your newly awakened aren't you! You cannot defeat me!"
Pearl turned to me distraught. "Siconja you must transform! They're dieing! Are you going to let all of them die!?" The small cat was nearly in tears. Diamond turned his gaze towards me in almost a pleading manner. He loved Kira like a father and it was tearing him apart watching this.
I looked down at the ground and then towards the others. Yes, they were dieing, if someone didn't do something soon they would all be dead and Diotmond would have Jeana's Jou Hari as well. In fact he was removing it right now. I took a deep breath and turned to Pearl. "Allright, Pearl, just this once." I said. A wide smile spread over Pearl's face and she did one of her famous pirotettes and down came my brooch. As I picked it up the familiar feeling of strenght washed over me.
"SAYIN PRISM POWER!" I throw my hand up in the air and my fingernails are painted in a flash of light. The flash blinds temporarily and I throw my arms out to my side and let them fall some. My clothes fade into my body. I stop and my locket lets off a flash of light, which changes into ribbons that form my body suit. I lift my leg up some and more ribbons form my skirt. I cross my arms and bring them down in front of me and ribbons fly around them and form my gloves. I stand on my tiptoes and ribbons fly around my legs to form my boots. I tuck my leg up under me with my other leg pointed and my head down. I throw back my head and a point of light forms on my forehead, which changes into my tiara jewel, and the rest of my tiara grows around it. My hair jewels, earrings, and choker form and I take my pose.
I turned toward Diotmond with hatred bruning in my eyes. For the first time since Lita's death I saw her real killer. Pearl had been right, it wasn't all my fault that she was dead, here in front of me was her killer. "DIOTMOND!" I screamed tears in my eyes. He turned astonished in my direction. Whenhe saw me he smirked.
"Well well well, if it isn't Sailorsayin. I beleive I killed your friend last time we met. Yes that was you wasn't it. I hope you can present me with more of a challenege this time. Your powers are rather, shall we say, waterd-down." He cackled.
Tears ran down my face as my heart screamed with rage. and screamed out at the top of my lungs "DOES THIS LOOK WATERED-DOWN TO YOU!" As I yelled I hurled my tiara at him with all my strenght. The attack hit him with such speed he never had a chance to avoid it. As he recovered from the attack I stalked towards him. "How dare you! How dare you mock me! How dare you hurt my friends! HOW DARE YOU KILL LITA!" I screamed as I kicked and punched him repeatedly and threw attack after attack. Out of the corner of my eyes I saw Diamond give Kira something but it barely registered in my mind. All my energy was on making Diotmond fell my pain. As he lay rather painfully at my feet I saw Jeana limp on one of his pllars her Jou Hari in front of her. With that I leaped for it and caught it in my hand. With a glare I placed it in uniform. And I pulled out my Sayin Wand.
To be continued...
Episode 7
The Little Sis' Scenario
*********************************************************************************
"I'm so sorry I didn't tell you girls the truth about the Jou Hari." Pearl said with her head hung, Diamond sat beside her also forlorn.
"You see the Jou Hari takes the place of a persons Heart Crystal when they carry it inside them. And so the Jou Hari is their heart crystal. So since a person can't live without they're Heart Crystal, they die when it is removed." Diamond said sadly and hung his head.
"So we're going to have to kill six more people to find the Jou Ginzuishou?" Jeana asked astonished.
"Yes, I'm afraid so." Pearl said and sadly looked over at the bed where I was curled up sobbing. The sobbing was slowly subsiding and when Pearl said this I wiped my eyes and sat up.
"I quit." I said flatly. My eyes were red from crying.
"What!" They all cried at once staring astonished at me.
"I quit this Senshi business, I can't do it anymore. One of my best friends in the whole world is dead because of it, because of me!" I cried.
Pearl got up and gently padded over to me. "Siconja, I know this is thought for you, but its not your fault, it would have happened anyway. We need you Siconja, please don't back out now." Pearl nuzzled against me and I took her into my arms and held her.
"None of this is your fault Siconja but if you really feel you must quit I'll take your resignation to the council and we'll have to make do without a Sailorsayin." Diamond said sadly. "But remember if you decide to quit and I take it before the council they will strip you of your powers and you will never be able to become Sailorsayin again and your locket will become just like any other brooch. If you decide this you must be absolutely sure." His face became grave but his eyes remained sad.
"I'm sure Diamond." I said looking up and I removed my brooch and placed it on the bed before him. Diamond gazed up at me sadly.
"Then I will take your descion before the council. I wish you the best of luck Siconja." Diamond sighed and in a flash of light he was gone.
*
"Oh Guardians of the Council I stand before you today bearing sad and regrettable news. The leader of the Senshi Guardian Pearl and I have been assigned to has decided to quit, she wants nothing more to do with the Roiyaru no Senshi." Diamond said standing proud in his human form before the Council.
"Is Sailorsayin sure?" Hime, the great white guardian cat of Selene herself, asked him looking down with her sad eyes.
"Yes, Hime-sama, Sailorsayin is sure, she knows of the consequence." Diamond said trying to keep his composure.
"Then the Guardians of the Council shall strip her of the powers she was granted at birth." Hime said and turned her face upwards the universe symbol there glowing, all the other Guardians in they're human form there did the same. Diamond looked about sadly and saw Luna and Artimis sadly smiling at him with Diana next to them in human form but not participating, then they too turned their heads upwards as their crescents glowed. A great white light filled the room. But it suddenly stopped and no ball of energy formed before Hime.
Hime looked up shocked "We cannot strip her of her powers!" She gasped. Mummers quickly rose around the room. Hime silenced them and called for order.
Luna then rose "May I be allowed to speak?" She inquired.
"Yes, Luna of the Moon you may speak." Hime said.
"The only explanation for this is that she is something greater than a Sailor Senshi and must be preserved for the Roiyaru no Senshi to gain their ultimate goal. I suggest that Diamond tells her that she cannot leave and leave it at that." Luna said calmly.
"Granted, Diamond, you shall tell Sailorsayin that she must stay with her Senshi." Hime decreed.
"Yes, Hime-sama." Diamond said, bowed and was gone.
*
"I'm sorry Siconja bu the concil has refused your resignation, I cannot change there descicion!" Diamond snapped for about the hundreth time.
"GET OUT! ALL OF YOU!" I snapped losing my temper and pointing my finger towards the door. Pearl gave me one last affectionate nuzzel and jumped up heading towards the door signalling the others it was time to go. They all left in varing degrees of sadness.
When they were all gone I collapsed onto my bed sobbing "Oh Kami-sama Lita, Gomen Nasai!"
*
"Class today before we begin our lesson I would like to make a annoucement. Its my great misfortune to inform the class that one of our number has left forever. This weekend Lita Yui was hit by a car and killed instantly. If we could observe a moment of silence before we begin class." Miss Tsukino the homeroom teacher said. Everyone in the class bowed their heads, Lita had been well liked.
'Got hit by a car! Thats what they made up as if, they couldn't make head nor heals of it when they found her body with no physical injurys whatsoever. It hardly does her justice, she sacrificed herself so the world could be saved and they're making it out to be her fault.' Kira tought angirly as class started and Miss Tsukino began to take roll.
"Farie, Siconja-Arura?" Miss Tsukino called out. "Where is Siconja?" she looked about confused.
"Siconja's not going to be at school today, her mother let her stay home because of how Lita's death affected her." Kira spoke up respectfully.
"Very well. Fyu, Ascot-Yuyo?" Miss Tsukino went on down the list.
Jeana leaned over and wishpered in my ear "Is that really it?"
"Sarcose, Kira-Malinia?" Tsukino cried out.
"Present!" Kira cried. "Yes! She was making her self throw up yesterday and she took two whole bottles of asprin trying to kill herself, they only barely saved her. This is affecting her more than I thought." Kira wishpered back.
"Thya, Jeana-Inoca?" Miss Tsukino called out.
"Present." Jeana cried before looking away from Kira.
"Taylor, Sarah?" Miss Tsukino called out.
"Ohh newbie where? American too!" Kira cried and turned around in her seat just in time to see a small girl who looked remarkably like Lita said in shy standard speak up.
"Here Miss Tsukino." She said quitely, even her voice somewhat resembled Lita's. 'It's a good thing Siconja's not here.' Jeana thought. 'She'd burst into tears right now, not that I'd balme her this time, it really is uncanny the resemblance between her and Lita.'
Miss Tsukino looked really surprised at her. "Miss Tsukino?" Sarah said questioningly.
"I'm sorry, its just you look remarkably like the late Lita Yui!" Miss Tsukino said stunned.
"Your not the first one to notice, the secretary fainted when she saw me and told me the same thing." Sarah said in that voice.
*
It was lunch time and Jeana and Kira had no intention of letting that American girl, Sarah Taylor get away. Jeana was the first to cacth up to her. Jeana grabbed her by the arm a little rougher than nessicary.
Before Jeana could speak Kira intervined. "Looking for a place to sit?"
"Umm yes actually? None wants to sit near me because of that girl, Lita, who died." Sarah said a little sadly.
"Why don't you sit with us we don't mind." Jeana said once again a little more harshly than nessicary.
"Don't mind her she's always like this." Kira laughed. "I'm Kira-Malinia-Sarcose and this is my friend Jeana-Inoca-Thya." She said her eyes glittering with excitement.
"Nice to meet you, ummm, I'm sorry for saying this but what are you, I mean you have tails and all." Sarah said her face turning red as if she knew she should know this.
"We're Sayins, bakayaro!" Jeana cried leaping up from her seat growling at Sarah.
"SIT Jeana! We're Sayin's like we said. You must not have many of us in America. We're not natural inhabitants of this planet, we emigrated here with our Queen thousands of years ago when a evil force blew our planet, Vajiita-sei up." Kira said explaining to Sarah in a matter of factual tone. "Oh and its not a good idea to take one of us on a moonlit walk if its a full moon."
"Why?" Sarah asked truely interested.
"We transform into giant apes. Jeana and I have never done it because we're careful, part of the responisbility of keeping our tails, we could have them removed and not have to worry but we chose not to, or rather our parents did. Anything else I can tell you." Kira asked her eyes gleeming with the prospect of teaching this girl about her race.
"Umm yeah, why is she so grumpy." Sarah giggled pointing at Jeana.
"Ohh she's a very typical Sayin, perfect Sayin stereo type. Short Tempered(not that I'm not but I'm better at controlling mine), messy pointy hair, stays in place all the time." Kira giggled reaching over to muss it, it popped right back into place demonstrating this. "Coal black eyes, and shorter more compact build. That's inherit of the fact that everyone of us is born with a natural super strenght and if we're taught properly we can devolp something called a 'ki' over time. And no if your wondering no we don't recreate in any different way than you. We're simply built, inside and out more like very highly evolved humans." Kira laughed away wishpering the last part so Sarah had to lean over to hear.
"Cool! So can you guys help me find the Sayin embassadors daughter? I'm supposed to meet her as part of the exchange student process." Sarah said happily.
Kira and Jeana looked uncomfortably at each other and then Kira broke the silence. "Yes, she's my best friend in fact. But it might not be a good idea for you to meet her for a little while. You see she was a rather close friends with Lita Yui, they knew each since they were little. And well she's taking her death rather badly."
"Oh, I see. Well, I guess I'll just have to tell them I couldn't talk to her." Sarah said looking downtrodden.
Kira and Jeana looked at her and then each other. "Well, maybe you could meet her this afternoon but not for long, shes really upset." Jeana said.
"Really?!" Sarah cried excitedly.
*
I sat quietly in my room with all my Sailormoon artbooks out and my drawing pad. I was drawing pictures of us manga style as Lita had always wanted to do. In my own way I was making a tribute to her. I had started with her and was paying special attention to getting it just right, I had to keep alternating between SailorV pictures and Sailor Jupiter pictures. I kept crying and driping onto my papaer so I had to stop, I fell back on my bed, all day my family had been trying to cheer me up but all I could see in my mind was her dieing there in my arms and all I could hear was her scream of pain. So I had let them drag me about the house and cooperating with various attempts to cheer me up.
Eventually they had given up and let me retreat to the solitary confinment of my room. I had cried for a while but then decided it was no good feeling sorry for myself, it wouldn't bring Lita back, nothing would and it was all my fualt. I should just buck up and face that fact, I could never trust myself with the life of anyone, because I would fail. Even if that Concil of Diamond's said I couldn't quit, I will anyway, I'm a danger to others and shouldn't be given the responsiblity.
My locket lay across the room on the floor, that thing brought me all this, if it and Pearl had never showed up Lita would still be alive because I wouldn't have been the one to protect her. Some else would have and they would have done a better job! Lita's locket lay on a small table across the room, a kind of shrine I had made up.
I had already decided I didn't deserve to live, but I still pondered as how to go about this kind of thing. Killing myself was so final, no if I ended it now then I wouldn't suffer enough. No I had to live, live with the pain and the memories of what I had done.
My door creaked open and my mother appeared in it "Siconja dear Kira and Jeana are here. Shall I send them up?" She said softly.
I looked up at her mournfully and sighed "Whatever, sne dthem up. I don't care." My mothers face went pale and unhappy. 'I know being like this disturbs her but I can't help it. It's the way I feel.'
"All right then dear." She shut the door and went back downstairs. Moments later there was a knock at the door. "Yeah." I said flatly. The door creaked open and Kira and Jeana came into the room.
"Hey Siconja, how are you doing?" Kira said softly. She looked so concerned for me. I didn't know why neither of them blamed me for Lita's death, it was so obviously my fault.
"I'm just great Kira! One of my best friends just died and I tired to kill myself. Yep I'm doing real great." I said much more harshly than I'd intended. I couldn't help it anymore.
Kira shrunk back a little at the tone in my voice. But Jeana wasn't so easily intimdated. "You've got to stop blaming yourself. None of us blame you. You did everything you could. Its not your fault. Your just making everyone around you miserable by being like this! Stop feeling sorry for yourself! It's so childish they way your acting!" She burst out, she was angryier than I'd ever seen her. But that had no effect, she was being herself.
"You think I'm feeling sorry for myself!" I said in a low threatining tone. "I'm done being sorry for myself. I don't deserve sympathy. I have every reason to blame myself for what happened. It's my fault, theres only one person to blame and thats me! If had had done everything right then Lita would still be alive." My voice was nearly a snarl.
Kira stepped in front of me and kneeled down to bring her face level with mine. "Siconja, don't take Jeana so seriously. She isn't taking this well and her way of dealing with it is snapping. None of us are taking this well. Your not the only one who's upset. Now Siconja, none of us are blaming you. But you've conviced yourself that its your fault so well that I don't know if I can help you or not anymore. But there is someone outside this room who needs your help. She's supposed to meet with you as part of a exchange program. We only brought her here because she seems like a nice girl and well, I personally don't think this is conicadence. I must warn you she looks a bit like...hell she looks exactly like Lita. Even her voice, like her twin. But its not her, I only wish she was."
Kira then looked at Jeana who nodded and went to the door and said to someone outside. "You can come in now." She stod back as a girl entered the room. I stared astonished, she did look exactly like Lita had. Nothing a thing different.
"Hello, my name is Sarah Taylor." The girl said shyly. Her voice was just like Lita's! I froze as memories of Lita's death flashed through my head. Her scream, that man grabbing her crystal, her in my arms, her dead. I bit my lip to hold back the tears and the scream. It wasn't Lita, it was a girl named Sarah who just happened to look like her.
"Nice to meet you." I said in as calm a voice as I could muster. The likeness was uncanny. With that she launched into a explaination of why she was there. I put on my best fake smile and told her what she needed to know. Then Kira sugessted it was time she left.
After Sarah left Jeana let out a exasperated sigh "Siconja I don't care what you say. You're getting out of here and your going to stop moping. And I don't want to hear anything from you. I told you that I think your a lousy leader but I'm not going to let you sit in here and rot." She said even as I moved to protest.
And i don't know how it happened but in no time they had me out of the house and down the street.
*
Back at Faire house in Siconja's room her transformation brooch that was sitting on the floor began to glow in a lilac light. The brooch sitting of the shrine to Lita answered in its brightness.
*
Jeana and Kira had dragged me into a movie and now we were sitting at Tiyo. I mooped and Kira was telling a joke trying to cheer me up. But of course right then Nicaruagja came up.
"So hows it going Dumpling? I heard 'bout Lita. Thats tough." He said without his usueual cheerfulness.
"Yeah whatever Nicaruagja. Could you just go away." I said without emotion in my voice staring out the window.
Nicaruagja looked stunned that I hadn't juped up and threw him across the room right there and then. He looked to Kira confused.
Kira got up and told him quitely that Lita's death had a serious effect on me. It was obvious she was trying not to let me hear. She also said I was seriously depressed. Well I had a right to be.
Then a amazing thing happened. Nicaruagja bent over me to say something "I'm sorry Dumpling. Let me know if theres anything I can do. Hope you feel better." With that he stood up with a soft smile on his face.
I blinked at him in confusion. With that smile on his face he looked almost handsome. And where had that kind tone of voice come from? Where was his usual sarcastic self? I found myself locked into a stare deep into his dark blue eyes. He gazing back with equal inteansity. There was something about him and I just couldn't look away.
He was the first to break the gaze when Kakarotto called from across the room. "Nicaruagja lets go we're gonna be late." Nicaruagja looked over at him and turned to go.
But before he went he looked over his shoulder and called back to me. "See ya later Siconja." He didn't call me dumpling. For a moment I gazed after him. My eyes followed him as he left the store and passed the window.
"Woah! Earth to Siconja. Come in. What just happned there." Jeana said her own brand of sarcasim absent from her voice.
Kira held her head in her hands with a coy look on her face. "If I didn't know better I'd say that some sparks just flew."
I turned a shocked and defensive face to her and managed to stuer out. "N...N...N..No Way! W..What are you thinking."
"Ohhh Siconja likes Nicaruagja. Big news everybody! They managed to have a conversation without one threatining the other!" Jeana mocked and then cried the last part out for everyone in Tiyo to hear.
"No Way! Thats not how it is at all! I was just shocked thats all!" I proetsted to Kira's giggled and Jeana's singsong voice.
"I don't know Siconja. you looked pretty inteanse." Kira giggled. As I continued to protest and tall girl who couldn't have been more than 13 came over to us.
"Kira? what are you doing here I thought you were..." She dropped off when Kira's laughing face turned to her.
"Oh hi Millela. Yo guys this is my little sister Millela. Isn't she cute!" Kira said with much entusiasm.
I turned with a real smile on my face for the first time in days and said. "Nice to meetcha Millela. I'm Siconja and this is Jeana."
Jeana waved a little at her and said "Hi!"
"I wish you would stop calling me cute in public Kira." Millela said in a hushed voice.
"Why not its true! I don't care how tall you are you're still just so cute." Kira said rumpling her hair which was done up in a ponytail. Millela had the uniform of a lower classmen on, which had no pcoket on it unlike ours.
We chatted for a little while and I felt truely happy for the first time since Lita died. Maybe I should try to go on with life. Maybe things weren't so bad after all, Lita would have wanted it this way wouldn't have she?
But at that moment my happiness was shattered. There was a scream and before us there was a tall man in a black uniform with blond hair.
"Which one of you is it! Which one of you has the Jou Hari!" He screamed blasting every person in sight.
Kira turned to Jeana and nodded. Then she gave me a pleading look. I shook my head, I had given up my title as Sailorsayin. I could not fight again. Besides that I didn't have brooch.
Kira sighed right before she called out her henshin phrase. "VAJIITA PRISM POWER!" She tosses her brooch up in the air and she rasies her hands above her head with her palm touching the back of her hand. Her body suit appears and with a turn so does her skirt. She lifts a leg in the air and her boots appear. She grabs her locket out of mid air and her gloves appear as she places it on her bow. She bends her leg up under her then throws her head back and a point of light forms her tiara gem and the rest of her tiara forms around of it. As final touches a choker and earrings form and she opens her eyes and takes a pose.
Jeana also sighed as she called out her henshin phrase. "OOZARU POWER!" A girl stod there with a wand held above her head. She tosses the wand above her head and spins on her toes and grabs it again a circles her body with it drawing a line of fire around her body and it enfulges her. It clears and she grabs her forehead and her tiara appears and she takes her pose.
Kira and Jeana had tottally forgotten about Millela. She sat there in shock as she wacthed her sister become the current super hero, Sailorvajiita. She turned to me and pointed at them. "You knew about this?" She asked in shock.
"Yes, I knew. At one time I fought with them." I said figuring it couldn't hurt now that she knew.
"But..that means.." Millela sturred as she put two and two toghter. "Your Sailorsayin! But you've gotta help them!" She cried.
"I can't and I wont. I lost the priveledge of being Sailorsayin. I failed in my duty, I cannot risk becoming her again." I said as my face became exceedingly sad.
I simply turned my head and ignored futher protests from Millela. I watched as Kira challeneged Diotmond, the full pressure of leading nw on her shoulders. "Hey blondie over here!" She challeneged. Diotmond turned to her a smirked.
"Two more Sailor Senshi! This is wonderful a chance to eradicate more of you pesky girls. Queen Latifma will be most pleased." He laughed at them. He didn't even seem to care that two girls with incredible powers stood face to face with him.
"Who's Queen Latifma?" Jeana asked trying to keep her composure.
"She's his boss. He works for her whoever she is." I called out.
Diotmond turned to inspect me but no flicker of revonigtion went across his face. "You know a lot for a little girl. Yes Queen Latifma is my misstress. I will help her conquer this world and make the Jou Ginzuishou all hers. I will destroy all thoose who stand in her way. Her darkness willl soon cover this planet and she will have her revenge on that pitful sayin Queen who dared challenege her might." Diotmond cried.
"Whatever buddy! We'll see who'll be ruling this world. I have been charged with a quest to find the Sayin Queen and revive the Jou Ginzuishou for her! I will not give up my quest so easily!" Kir cried out. "Because I am a Sailor Senshi. For Love, Hope, and Justice, a sailor suited pretty soldier! I'm Sailorvajiita! In the name of the Royal Sayins I punish you!"
"I am the firey and energetic soldier Sailoroozaru! May my purifying flames punish you!" Jeana challenged standing by her leader.
"We'll see who will punish who!" Diotmond said as he began to battle them. But as he tried to use his 'Dragon Orbe' against Jeana it flashed like crazy. A look of confusion crossed his face. "Could it be? Yes it must be! You have the next Jou Hari! Well then I must releive you of it."
"No Je...Sailoroozaru!" I cried out nearly saying her name. Just then Pearl and Diamond arrived on the scene.
"Siconja you must transform! Without your help they'll die! If you don't become Sailorsayin he'll get Jeana's Jou Hari!" Pearl cried her voice cracking. She didn't want to loose another Senshi before they even found the Sayin Queen.
"Pearl, I can't. Because I couldn't do my job properly Lita's dead. I can't risk that happening again." I said hanging my head.
"Siconja if you don't transform Jeana WILL die. Kira can't do it herself. Just lke you couldn't. But toghter you can beat him back." Diamond said at first yelling at me in frustration.
Millela stared at us all in shock and anger. "I don't know about you but I'm not going to let them just die!" She screamed and ran towards the pair. As she ran at them and luanched herself at Diotmond a dark green symbol appeared on her forehead.
"Diamond look! The symbol of Kakarott!" Pearl cried. Before she evn made it to Diotmond Millela was knocked back but the symbol still burned brightly on her brow. I was momentarily forgotten as they rushed to help her. As soon as she was sitting upright Pearl did one of her kitty pirotettes in the air. A star-shapped green crystal fell to the ground. It began to flash and quickly began to morph shape. In no time flat it had become a wand with a green handle made out of crystal with rings of gold at the top and bottom. Perched at the top with a pink crystal heart with a ring of gold around it and a symbol like 'y' with curled sides engraved on it, the same symbol that had appeared on her head moments before.
Millela picked it up in fascination "pretty..." she mumered.
"Millela! That is yours! You must use it to help Sailorvajiita and Sailoroozaru fight!" Diamond cired.
Millela turned to him shocked "You can Talk! What do you mean I can't help them, how can this stick help!?" she cried astonished.
"There is no time for explanation now. If you want to help your sister then you must take that wand and yell 'Kakkarott Power!'" Pearl cried looking distraught.
Millela exaimened them and the wand for a second then she stood and lifted the wand above her head and yelled, her dark blue eyes flashing. "KAKKAROTT POWER!"She tosses her henshin wand above her head and spins on her toes and grabs it again flips over witch draws a ring of ice around her. The ice grows into a sphere around here It cracks open and she grabs her forehead to make her tiara appears and takes her pose.
She blinked at her costme which was identical to Jeana's except her colors were different. Where Jeana's was orange hers was a dark green and where Jeana's was red hers was a electric pink. "Wow its just like in anime...I'm a Super Hero!"
"Yes, you are Sailorkakkarott! Mystic Soldier of Ice. Now you must help them, let your instincts guide you, you will know what to do." Pearl said urgently. Millela nodded and ran towards them. Kira was using her body as a sheild against Diotmond's blows. She wasn't about to let him take her Jou Hari.
"Hey you! Why don't you mess with someone who can fight back!" Millela yelled. Diotmond turned to look at her with a furious look on his face. "Yeah thats right buddy! You think I'm gonna let you beat up fellow Senshi? I don't think so! I am the icey and passionate soldier Sailorkakkarott! My freezing ice will send you searching for the truth!" Millela blurted out in a simaler fashion as me when I first fought.
"Another Sailor Senshi! Where do you keep coming from!" Diotmond nsarled turning away from Kira and Jeana. With that he threw an atack intended to knock her out but she spryly sprang away. Diotmond coninued in frustration trying to hit her. In the process she got in several good blows. After a particularlly powerful blast she stepped back and began to call out an attack.
"Kakkarott!" She twirled and ice began to dance around her body. She cuped her hands behind her back and the ice swirled around and gathered into her palms. "Icestorm!" She spun around and released the ice at Diotmond.
Diotmond wasn't expecting this and it sent him realing back with chunks of ice all over. This attack obviously wasn't as powerful as Jeana's 'Oozaru Firestorm!' He quickly broke free and snarled at her sending a huge blast of energy. This attack was too fast for her and she was sent hard into the wall. Diotmond hovered over her laughing at her weakness. "Your no match for me. Your newly awakened aren't you! You cannot defeat me!"
Pearl turned to me distraught. "Siconja you must transform! They're dieing! Are you going to let all of them die!?" The small cat was nearly in tears. Diamond turned his gaze towards me in almost a pleading manner. He loved Kira like a father and it was tearing him apart watching this.
I looked down at the ground and then towards the others. Yes, they were dieing, if someone didn't do something soon they would all be dead and Diotmond would have Jeana's Jou Hari as well. In fact he was removing it right now. I took a deep breath and turned to Pearl. "Allright, Pearl, just this once." I said. A wide smile spread over Pearl's face and she did one of her famous pirotettes and down came my brooch. As I picked it up the familiar feeling of strenght washed over me.
"SAYIN PRISM POWER!" I throw my hand up in the air and my fingernails are painted in a flash of light. The flash blinds temporarily and I throw my arms out to my side and let them fall some. My clothes fade into my body. I stop and my locket lets off a flash of light, which changes into ribbons that form my body suit. I lift my leg up some and more ribbons form my skirt. I cross my arms and bring them down in front of me and ribbons fly around them and form my gloves. I stand on my tiptoes and ribbons fly around my legs to form my boots. I tuck my leg up under me with my other leg pointed and my head down. I throw back my head and a point of light forms on my forehead, which changes into my tiara jewel, and the rest of my tiara grows around it. My hair jewels, earrings, and choker form and I take my pose.
I turned toward Diotmond with hatred bruning in my eyes. For the first time since Lita's death I saw her real killer. Pearl had been right, it wasn't all my fault that she was dead, here in front of me was her killer. "DIOTMOND!" I screamed tears in my eyes. He turned astonished in my direction. Whenhe saw me he smirked.
"Well well well, if it isn't Sailorsayin. I beleive I killed your friend last time we met. Yes that was you wasn't it. I hope you can present me with more of a challenege this time. Your powers are rather, shall we say, waterd-down." He cackled.
Tears ran down my face as my heart screamed with rage. and screamed out at the top of my lungs "DOES THIS LOOK WATERED-DOWN TO YOU!" As I yelled I hurled my tiara at him with all my strenght. The attack hit him with such speed he never had a chance to avoid it. As he recovered from the attack I stalked towards him. "How dare you! How dare you mock me! How dare you hurt my friends! HOW DARE YOU KILL LITA!" I screamed as I kicked and punched him repeatedly and threw attack after attack. Out of the corner of my eyes I saw Diamond give Kira something but it barely registered in my mind. All my energy was on making Diotmond fell my pain. As he lay rather painfully at my feet I saw Jeana limp on one of his pllars her Jou Hari in front of her. With that I leaped for it and caught it in my hand. With a glare I placed it in uniform. And I pulled out my Sayin Wand.
