Usagi's mind was pacing.

Elysian....why Elysian?

But in truth she knew why. It was a Holy place, somewhere they wouldn't expect her to be. Mistress 9 had killed Helios around the same time she had murdered her parents and the other senshi. There was no more priest of Elysian, therefore it had lost it's glory, it's luster, it's serenity.

But she wondered how she had gotten there if the only two ways to get there were through the crystal or the priest...

Helios! That's how!

She had almost forgotten that Helios was inside her as well. She had manipulated his powers through her so that she could control them, and find her way to Elysian. It was much like when she used attacks from the Zen Fighters that were also inside her.

She turned to Goten, her stern crimson eyes in an demanding tone. "Goten, I want you to clear your mind of any doubts or worries that you have. Can you do that for me?"

He nodded his head slowly, taking in her words as if were the first time she had ever spoke. And still, that same face of ignorance and naivety shone through his concern.

"We're going to see Evil Lady, aren't we?" he asked her.

She gave a quick nod. "Yes, and we're going to find you're brother too."

She fished around in her pocket for something. She pulled out the small, compact, Ginzushou, and griped it with the palm of her right hand. With her left, she held on to Goten's hand tightly.

"Goten, you can not let go of my hand. It's very important that you don't let go of my hand. If you get lost I may never find you again."

"Lost? Whe-" but he was cut off as they both disappeared in a flash of white light.

*****

The duo rematerialized in front of what looked like a huge chapel, one of which looked like half of it had been destroyed.

"Big Brother's in there," whispered Goten meekly. He could pick up a bit of his ki.

Usagi turned to him. "Are you sure?"

He nodded. "I'm sure."

As the two walked up the path to the front steps, the fifteen year old squeezed Goten's hand a bit tighter, although he didn't respond. She looked at his face. He looked pretty angry, but still had that damn innocent and fearless expression. He always had such a paradox of emotions, you could never tell what he was thinking.

They were about to open the front door when five women blocked their path.

The one with red hair spoke up. "You have to get past us first, trust me, you won't survive."

Chibiusa sneered at them, all of them. She remembered them, not fondly, but she remembered them all the same. She even remembered their names: Eudial, Mimete, Villus, Tellu, Cyprine. The Witches 5. She knew that when Mistress 9 had broken loose from the dimension that Pluto and Sailor Moon had put her in, someone from the Death Busters must have followed, it was as simple as that. Chibi Moon sighed. She could take them, she was much stronger and wiser than when she was eight.

She looked down at Goten, who was still holding her hand. "Are you ready?"

"Yeah."

He knew that they would both eventually have to fight, he was prepared. Usagi was already in Sailor fuku, just in case something like this should occur.

Neither one of them had any warning as Tellu unleashed a Mandragon Buster on both of them. They both pretty much got out of the way, but the attack had grazed Usagi's back. Goten (due to much training from his brother) managed to simultaneously break Viluy's nose and snap Eudial's spine. Chibi Moon had put Cyprine (and her other self Petite Roll, they can split apart, if you'll remember), out of commission with her Pink Lady's Freezing Kiss, but had a bit of trouble with Cyprine's Ribbon Buster. Goten had finished off Tellu with a Masenko Ha, (Gohan had taught him that too). Afterwards he went back to Viluy and did a bit more than just breaking her nose.

And now it was just down to Mimete.

Both Chibiusa and Goten cornered her with smirks resembling the late Saiyan Prince's, and then combined a Kamehameha and a Kaleidoscope Meditation, and sent her to Kingdom Come.

Though it was a short and easy fight, it left them both a bit worn out, but satisfied. For the second time in the past seven years, the Witches 5 were defeated.

They exchanged smiles and continued their way through their sanctuary. Unfortunately, they were unaware of the second obstacle in their path. As soon as they ad taken about ten steps into the place, they noticed something strange was happening to the walls...

Goten squinted. "Usa, do you think it's getting smaller?"

"What?"

"The room, it's-" but he stopped in mid-sentence as metal spikes punctured through the walls. The walls really were closing in on them, and fast.

They were going to be mutilated.

The walls were made out of the untouchable Golden Crystal, so the walls themselves couldn't be destroyed.

Goten thought quickly and flew up with Usagi to the highest point of the ceiling, and pressed them flat against it. There was just enough space between the dome ceiling and the retracting walls for them to stay without getting hurt. Gradually, the walls went back to the way they were originally and Goten floated he and Usagi back to the ground.

This wasn't the last hurdle they had to jump over. There were rings of fire, bottomless pits, Goten nearly drowned to death in a room that instantly filled up with water. All of this courtesy of Mistress 9. But they were persisted onward until they reached the throne room where Gohan was held captive.

He was cuffed with golden chains that were tied down to the floor. He was blindfolded, and a great deal of his clothes were torn. Usagi tried to kiss his cheek, but he turned his head away from her.

"Would you just leave me the HELL alone?!!! I don't want to have your kid!!!"

Usagi cupped his face and took off his blindfold. "It's just me, don't worry, it's only me."

Gohan's whole face lit up as soon as he saw that it was his sweet little Usagi instead of the malicious, blood lusting Misress 9.

"Usa!! You're alive!!"

She rolled her eyes. "Well of course I'm alive, stupid. Did you think I was going to get my ass kicked like you did?"

He was so happy to see her he didn't care how much of a bitch she was being at the moment. They tried their best to hug, but found it impossible seeing as he was still shackled to the floor.

Goten pouted. "I can't believe I came all the way up here....or down here....on of those....just so I could watch ya'll stare all googly-eyed at each other all day long. I'm telling 'ya, I-" but he froze as a graceful, but deadly beauty entered the room.

Mistress 9 glared at all of them. "Well, well, well....it looks like I've got some uninvited guests, hmm? Oh well, all the better. Like they say, misery loves company..."

To Be Continued.....

(A/N: Yeah.....this was suppose to make sense.....but it didn't. Sorry about the whole Witches 5 thing, I just couldn't really think of a good enemy to temporarily block their path! -_-;; Oh yeah, and if I got any attacks wrong in that crappy fight scene up there, could you tell me? It'd be appreciated. and I'll try to have the next chapter make more sense....not a promise....but I'll try...R&R ~Flirtatious Flamingo~)
