Chapter 6-The Phoenix Princess
Grasping tightly onto a love you found your way to at last
You gently rest, sleeping.
Laying a goodbye-kiss on your closed eyelid,
I left you behind in the Garden of Time.
-Moon Revenge
****
"That is who we are," Eternal Sailor Moon said, "and we are all here to get rid of those who get in Lady Xineoh's way."
"What?!!!" Katrice cried out.
Motoki stepped foreward.
"But you girls protect us," Motoki said, "why are you trying to get rid of us?"
Motoki was replied with another attack by Jupiter.
"Motoki-san!!!" YingGirl cried out as she was still being held.
"RUBY LASER!!!!!" Katrice yelled as she jumped into the air and releashed a power within her jewel. She created a barrier around Motoki, which made Jupiter's attack to not managed any damage to him at all.
YingGirl tried to struggle out of Kaga's grasp. The other senshi were about to throw their attacks.
"I got to help him!!" YingGirl cried as she continued to struggle, "He'll get hurt!!!"
"No!" Kaga replied as he tried to "You're too weak! Please YingGirl, stay with me and try to recover!"
"I don't want to recover!!! If all of you die because of me, I shall never forgive myself!! I must stop them!!! I promise you that I'll give up everything to find the Phoenix Princess...even if it means giving up my own life!!!"
He then let go of her, knowing she was serious. He gave a parting smile before she left to do battle.
"Please..." Kaga whispered, "promise me you won't die on us."
****
Hakura and Michiru arrived in front of Usagi's house.
Both of them saw Pluto and Saturn standing in front of them.
"Pluto," Michiru said as she looked at the Time Senshi.
"Everyone in this district has been place under a deep sleep," Pluto replied as she gripped her time staff, "even everyone else in Tokyo. We tried to wake them, yet the darkness is very powerful."
"What's worse is our princess has been kidnapped," Saturn added, "and so have the rest of the inner senshi. We must go look for them."
"But who has taken the Princess?" Hakura asked.
"We are not sure. But let's look if the prince is all right."
"There's no need too..." a familiar voice replied.
The two girls and the two sailor senshi turned around.
Tuxedo Kaman had made his appearance.
"Prince!!!" Pluto, Saturn, Hakura, and Michiru cried out.
He looked back at everyone.
"The reason I'm not affected is that the Ruby Phoenix Crystal seems to protect me just like the Silver Crystal," Tuxedo Kaman said, "it's no suprise that the Phoenix Princess was a cousin of mine from the Dynesty of the Phoenix and Dragon."
"We're glad you're not affected," Michiru replied.
"Don't thank me. Thank the Phoenix Princess."
Saturn looked up.
"I wish I can meet this princess," Saturn said to herself, "she sounds really nice."
"I sense that Kaga Takashi had already met her," Pluto smiled, "it world be best that we all visit him."
Michiru chuckled slightly. Everyone else turned to her.
"What's so funny?" Tuxedo Kaman asked.
"I've meet Mr. Takashi-san a few months ago," Mirchiru replied, "he appeared in the audiance dinner while I peforming. He seems to be quite a strange fellow who follows a twisted path of fate. Yet he is well respective amongst the culinary world as well as his Iron Chefs. He is a very polite gentleman who seems to have a slight obsession with food."
"So Michiru has a boyfriend..." Hakura teased slightly.
"Hakura-san! That gentleman is old enough to be my father!!!"
"Gomenasi. We shouldn't be joking around at a time like this."
"Speak for yourself." Michiru sighed.
Hakura grabbed her transformation pen.
"The battle is still not over," Hakura said as she looked at everyone, "we will fight this battle till the very end. Uranus Crystal Power...MAKE UP!!!!"
Michiru also transformed alongside Hakura to transform. Both of them revealed their senshi fukus and both of them will soon realize this could be a battle that may change the fate of the future....
****
YingGirl dashed towards the sailor senshi. She felt a dark presence surrounding the senshi.
She also noticed that there were a set of dark bracelets that each senshi had. Wait on a sec! Dark Bracelets? A sailor senshi never wears dark bracelets!! Could these bracelets be causing the senshi to act like this?
That's it!!!
YingGirl turned around to look at Katrice.
"Katrice!!!" YingGirl cried, "Aim for the bracelets!!! It may get the senshi back to normal!"
"MERCURY!" Mercury shouted as she started her attack, "AQUATIC RHAPSODY!!!"
A blast of water was heading right at YingGirl. She quickly dodged it as the blast made a dent in the rock aquarium.
The Phoenix gave out a shrill cry. Luckily, no one could hear it.
YingGirl looked back at the senshi.
"Please stop this," YingGirl said, "you can't do such a thing. If you take the Phoenix, Kaga-sama will never get a chance to see the Phoenix Princess!!!"
"Exactly!!!" Eternal Sailor Moon replied as she raised her scepter, "And I'll make sure he never does. Silver Moon Crystal....SAILOR KISS!!!"
YingGirl thought the attack was going to hit her. She thought wrong.
To everyone's horror, the attack went right into the rock aquarium!! The blast hit the Phoenix...
And the magestic firebird fell off its' pearch, squalling in immense pain.
Motoki started to freak out when his uncle fell onto his knees. Kaga was coughing as he tried to struggle to get up.
"Uncle!!!!" Motoki cried as he ran towards his uncle. YingGirl turned around.
The sailor senshi, Michi Xiang, and Kishi-ko just laughed. Motoki kneeled down to cradle his fallen uncle. Katrice and YingGirl also appeared right beside him. Motoki had tears running down his eyes.
"Uncle..." Motoki whimpered, "not now. Please don't leave us now."
"H-hi...t-to...ri," was all Kaga could reply back.
"Damn," Katrice muttered, "the Phoenix has a bond to its' master. Whenever the master gets hurt, so does the Phoenix and vice versa. It could probably explain why Kaga is dying; he isn't strong enough to take care of the Phoenix."
YingGirl looked down.
"How cruel..." YingGirl muttered, "if being a sailor senshi means hurting others like this....then I do not want to become one!!!"
Katrice turned around and looked at YingGirl.
"They're under a spell," Katrice replied, "you must use the Ruby Phoenix Crystal to break them from the spell. I believe you can use it, Ying-chan!"
Motoki even looked at YingGirl. He was smiling and he was also crying.
"I know you are not the Princess," Motoki said, "but now I'm starting to believe what your friend Katrice says about you. I'm sorry I tried to argue with you and your choices. You wanted to do them anyways because you wanted to protect us. Please use the crystal to save the sailor senshi, the Phoenix, and everyone else."
YingGirl looked at Motoki. She smiled back at him as she placed her hands on her locket.
"Thank you," YingGirl replied.
Kishi-ko looked at the Phoenix.
"Hey!!" Kishi-ko cried out, "We should hit the Phoenix again! With a very weak bird, we will be able to convert it to the side of darkness."
"For once," Michi Xiang replied, "you know what you're talking about."
"Yeah! Kishi-ko knows well."
YingGirl knew what their were talking about. If they hit the Phoenix....
She quickly opened her locket and looked at the Ruby Phoenix Crystal. If she didn't use her crystal...
She had no other choice!!! She had to use it.
Michi Xiang turned to the sailor senshi.
"You guys heard her," Michi Xiang said, "use Sailor Planet attack and get rid of this Phoenix!!!"
"Of course..." the senshi replied in unision. Each one of them were starting to combine their powers.
YingGirl released the Ruby Phoenix Crystal. The Phoenix weakly raised its' head. It started to feel a familliar prensence.
"Please Crystal," YingGirl whispered, "please...help everyone."
The crystal started to release a blinding light. Then, a ray of energy surrounded the sailor senshi. They all looked confused but the ray of light also destroyed the dark bracelets.
The senshi fell on their knees. Both Michi Xiang and Kishi-ko freaked out!
"Impossible!!!" Michi Xiang shouted, "There's not way they could return to normal...unlesss..."
The two servants glared at YingGirl.
"Hey!" Kishi-ko cried, "She has the Ruby Phoenix Crystal!!!"
"The only way you can have that crystal is that you are...." Michi Xiang stated.
YingGirl smiled back at them.
"Hitori..." YingGirl whispered.
All of a sudden, the Phoenix managed to get up. It gave a triumphant cry of victory by showing off its' crest of yellow, violet, red, and orange feathers. It also spreaded out its' wings to prepare for flight.
"T-the...Phoenix!!!" Kishi-ko shouted, "But, we wounded it very badly! How can it recover instantly?!!! It's impossible!!!"
The Phoenix roared out another cry as it started to fly towards Michi Xiange and Kishi-ko. The servants screamed as the Phoenix flew straight at them. They were both engulfed by flames from the bird. They were greatly wounded and burned, but not dead.
The Phoenix then sat itself right in front of YingGirl and lowered its' head towards her. YingGirl closed her locket and ran towards the Phoenix. She jumped and hugged its' neck.
****
Everyone was shocked of what YingGirl just did...expect Kaga. He also recovered from that near fatal blow.
"You knew I'll come back for you one of these days!" YingGirl cried as she hugged the Phoenix, "I'm so sorry I made you wait so long! I promise myself I'll never leave you like that again! I'm also glad you're okay."
The Phoenix gave out another shrilling cry. It didn't sound like a cry of pain like the other ones. It was more of a pleasing sound.
Motoki looked at his uncle.
"Uncle..." Motoki started.
"If I recall," Kaga replied as he started to get up, "you have already read the legend of YingGirl-Senshi for Hire. Yet what you haven't read is that Phoenix Princess disguised herself as this soldier so no one will notice her presence on Earth, except the Phoenix."
"You mean...You knew all this time that she was the Phoenix Princess all along and didn't bother to tell us?!!!"
"If I told you earlier Motoki-san, you'll probably think I was possibly insane."
Katrice looked at YingGirl and the Phoenix.
"Well," Katrice said, "what do you know? My Van-chan all along was the Princess."
Michi Xiang and Kishi-ko struggled to get up as they both held onto each other.
"I don't believe it!!!" Michi Xiang cried, "That girl...is the princess Lady Xineoh wants to awaken!!!"
"Kishi-ko can't believe that as well," Kishi-ko replied as she looked at YingGirl.
The sailor senshi got up. It all seem that each of them were awaken from a bad dream.
"Where are we?" Mars asked as she looked around.
"I knew we used to be at the Juuban Markjet place," Jupiter replied, "so how did we get ourselves over here?"
Before anyone could reply, there was a slight laughter that echoed throughtout the area. Anothther figure revealed itself.
Both Michi Xiang and Kishi-ko bowed.
"Lady Xineoh!!" they both replied.
"Lady Xineoh?" Eternal Sailor Moon asked.
The figure glared down at everyone. She then gave a spiteful look at YingGirl. She unleashed a wave of energy that made everone fall to their knees. Michi Xiang and Kishi-ko were suprised that they were hit by this attack as well.
"Lady Xineoh..." Kishi-ko asked, "why?"
She paid not attention to her servants as as she looked at YingGirl.
"Princesses are not allowed to fall in love...." she said.
YingGirl looked up.
"What?" YingGirl replied.
Lady Xineoh looked back at YingGirl.
"Princesses are not allowed to fall in love..." Lady Xineoh smiled, "DIE!"
She then unleashed a powerful blast that was directly heading towards...
"Ying!!!!!" Katrice squeaked as she started to head towards YingGirl.
Too late. She fell onto the ground as the blast hit her. The Phoenix couldn't do nothing at all to save her.
Lady Xineoh turned towards her servants.
"As for you," Lady Xineoh said.
She unleashed another blast on her servants. Both of them screamed in pain as everyone watched them see the two servants turn to dust.
Lady Xineoh looked again at the fallen YingGirl.
"I'm sorry for what I did princess," Lady Xineoh muttered, "but this is for your own good."
She faded away and left everyone with the fallen hero. The phoenix lowered its head as it looked down.
YingGirl was out cold.
