Chapter 8
The eyes of the remaining soldiers held sadness in them. Out of the few battles they had fought, they lost Mars, Mercury, Uranus and Neptune. They knew what they were after now. They were after the medallions that each senshi held inside of them. Mars held one that looked like a large flame, the colour of red. Mercury had water, the color of deep blue. Uranus held speed which was golden wings. Neptune held a triton. The power of the ocean with a greenish blue colour to it.
Silence had filled the area where all of them sat. Makoto wondered.
Should I tell them or not? I'm not sure yet. I don't want anything to happen this isn't good.
Someone poked her in the back which made her turn to look at Minako looking at her. She poked her again.
"Hello? Earth to Makoto! Are you there?" She pushed her hand out of her face.
"I didn't move, did I?" she asked.
"What are you holding in your hand?" she asked curiously. Makoto handed it to her to have her eyes widened. She lifted it up into plain sight where all the senshi gasped in illustion.
"When did this happen?" asked Raven.
"Last night," grumbled Seifer with his arms over his chest.
"I don't want to know why he's sulking," said Raven. Minako smiled.
"I think I know why!"
"Well, you would sink your room is right next to theirs," said Hotaru, blushing. Zell smirked.
"My room is on the other side too." Minako and him laughed evilly as they watched Makoto sink into her chair. Her face a scarlet colour. Minako got on her acting look and grinned.
"Oh Seifer. Not here," she said acting to be Makoto.
"No one will know," said Zell deepening his voice. They both made kissing sounds and then started laughing at Makoto who tumbled out of her chair, onto the floor. Makoto's hands were over her ears as she was murmuring ," La la la la la la la! I can't hear you! La la la la la la la...."
"Alright you two. Knock it off. We have to figure out the next place the enemy will be hitting," said Setsuna.
"Alright." They stopped for a moment as Makoto moved herself away from the two to take her place between Raven and Seifer.
"What do you think we should do?" asked Usagi.
"Anything and everything we can. We first need a plan," said Setsuna.
"The best thing right now for us to do is sit and wait. As long as we wait, then they will find us. We might not be prepared for it but, it's the most safest way that we can do. Don't you all agree?" asked Usagi. Hotaru nodded.
"We need to watch as wait. I say that we set up in teams to make this fair. Some senshi hold down the fort while a couple others go around and keep watch. During the night, we take shifts watching the boat and around it."
"Makoto and Seifer won't do a great job since Seifer would try and distract Makoto by trying to---"
"Yeah. I don't want to hear anything nor see anything going on up there---"
"You two knock it off! No more jokes about! I think everyone here already gets the point and ideas that you are trying to refer to. If you want a description of what happened last night, I'll be sure to tell you---"
"Will you tell us what happened before or after Seifer started getting grumpy?" asked Minako. Seifer smirked something that Makoto knew too well.
"Go ahead and tell us Seifer. I wanna know," grinned Zell. He stood up from where he was leaning on his chair and pulled Makoto up with him.
"First, I pulled her close to me, gazing into her eyes, and brushed the strands of hair out of her face," he demonstrated while she let out a giggle but continued, " I kissed her passionately for a moment and then started down her jaw line slowly while my hands explored her. Slowly, we made it to the bed where I leaned her back, kissing down her next as she quivered at my warm hands touching her cold body---"
"Alright. That's enough!" said Raven, looking down at her friend giggling while laying back on the table as Seifer's dimenstrater. She was pulled back up and lounged in Seifer's lap while he leaned back in his chair.
"I so wish I had a man," mumbled Minako loud enough for everyone to hear. She then started blushing.
"You have Eric back home," said Raven.
"You have Zell! Why can't I get a guy?" asked Minako. Seifer laughed.
"Chicken Wuss?! You're with Chicken Wuss!" Raven growled.
"You're lucky Makoto's in your lap or else I'd knock your teeth down your throat!" He just continued laughing until Makoto elbowed him and acted like it was on accident.
"Well, any other suggestions on what we should do?" asked Hotaru, getting back on the subject.
"Why don't we just chill and do nothing?" asked Minako.
"Why? So you could get a guy?" asked Makoto.
"Stop it! You're making me miss Mamoru," said Usagi.
"Don't worry. Everything will be fine Usa," said Raven patting her on the back.
"Are you all going to take this serious? Our friends are gone and we need to do things," said Setsuna standing up.
"Why not look in your crystal ball and see," said Raven. She growled.
"No. We have to do this ourself---" She stopped at the sound of footsteps on deck. Raven growled.
"Transform!"
"Pluto Eternal Crystal Power..."
"Saturn Eternal Crystal Power..."
"Venus Eternal Crystal Power..."
"Crisis Eternal Crystal Power...."
"Jupiter Eternal Crystal Power..."
"Moon Eternal Power...."
"Make-Up!"
All these different colored lights filled the room and there stood the senshi. Jupiter was the first to run out the door.
"Jupiter! Wait!" She quickly ran up the steps to see the deck abandoned. She walked around, letting her shoes tap. Suddenly, there was a whistle and she was surrounded by men. Something stirred in her mind.
"Jupiter Oak Evolution!" She sliced men down all around her.
"Time to go," smirked a man.
"Jupiter! No!" Venus pushed her out of the way as a black light went through her chest.
"Minako-chan!" It was too late. A yellow heart madallion popped out of her chest, causing to fall to the ground. Jupiter grabbed it before the man did, trying to shove it back into her friend.
"No Minako-chan! You can't leave us! I won't let you!" She looked at the disappearing girl. Suddenly, she was pushed out of the way again. This time, by Pluto.
"Silence Wall!"
"Jupiter, I want you to keep as many of these as you can. Don't let them get it!" She placed it away in an inner dimensional pocket and nodded.
"I won't let anyone get it Suna. I promise. They heard a scream as Saturn fell too. Jupiter quickly grabbed the the purple gravel that came from her.
"Damn you senshi!" Another blast came, getting Pluto in it's grasps.
"Get the Princess out of here!" Jupiter nodded and quickly took Moon with her and Crisis. Seifer followed behind along with Zell. Jupiter stopped and headed back, Seifer going after her. She watched Pluto fall and then grabbed the burgundy time clock and ran. Suddenly, everything around them disappeared as Seifer grabbed onto her....
