The Pulse
Part 3
Author: Nyneve
Well, glad you like the ficcie so far! Hope my format isn't too confusing, but it is supposed to "mystify the mind" *spooky music* Yeah. Anyways, I don't own Gundam Wing or Sailor Moon.

"You realize what will happen if any of them are hurt."
"Yes. The Bios will be neutralized."
"Bios?"
"Thanatos has the home field advantage. But, that's only if any of them get we should worry."
"You're right."

"Who-who are you?" Mina stammered, looking at the speaker. It was a woman, and standing behind her were four other women.
The one who had spoke had bright red eyes, dark green hair, and black armor. Next to her was a woman who looked a little younger. She had blond hair streaked with black, and her blue eyes seemed to bore holes in the skulls of anyone looking directly at her. She wore a midriff tank top and a long skirt, but the strangest thing was that instead of hands and forearms, she had a pair of axes stemming off of her elbows. The other women all looked exactly the same, with red ponytails, glittering black eyes, and blood red dresses. One held a sword, another a bow and arrow, and the last held a spear.
The first woman grinned.
"My name is Night. And these are my daughters, Nemesis, Alecto, Megaera, and Tisiphone," she grinned. "And, like I said, it is good that we are all introduced before you die."
As she said this, an arrow flew free from Tisiphone's bow, whizzing past the right side of Duo's head.
"Kill us? Why do you want to kill us?" Amy said, jumping out of the way before one of Nemesis's axe arms sliced her.
"Oh, you have something we want. And we intend to get it," Nemesis grinned, before lunging. Meanwhile, Megaera was locked in a sword fight with Wufei.
"So boy, are you afraid yet?" she taunted. Wufei glared at her.
"I will never fear an onna," he answered with a bit too much dignity.
"Oh really? I'm going to test that theory," she snarled. Instantly, her sword began to glow. The blade transformed into a tongue of flame.
"Trista! Should we transform?" Raye asked under her breath.
"Not unless it's necessary. We can't transform in front of the enemy, or they'll be able to track us," she answered, the leapt out of the way of the spear Alecto threw.
"You girls get out of here. We can handle this," Trowa yelled, motioning for the woods.
"Are you crazy?" Mina cried, but was shoved into the bushes by Heero. "I guess so," she muttered, running deeper into the woods.
"Come on," Trista said, grabbing Lita's arm and dragging her into the forest. Amy and Raye followed suit. When the girls were deep in the forest, the paused in a clearing to rest.
"Trista! Why did we run away and leave those guys alone with those monsters?" Amy asked.
"Because, if we're gone the Sailors can arrive and give them a hand!" Raye answered for her.
"Right. PLUTO CRYSTAL POWER!"
"MARS CRYSTAL POWER!"
"JUPITER CRYSTAL POWER!"
"VENUS CRYSTAL
POWER!"
"MERCURY CRYSTAL POWER!"

"Now what? We've gotten rid of the normal girls, but those crazy monsters are still trying to kill us!" Duo cried. Tisiphone gasped indignantly.
"Monsters? We are goddesses, I'll have you know. I think you need to learn some respect!" she yelled, letting another arrow fly.
It was headed straight for Duo, when suddenly, another arrow, a flaming one, intercepted it and knocked it into a tree.
"What was that?" Quatre asked.
"Hold it right there Tisiphone!" a female voice yelled. The five boys looked toward the silhouette of five females standing next to a tree.
"Attacking the innocent is a crime you shall pay for. I am Sailor Mars!"
"I am Sailor Mercury!"
"Sailor Venus!"
"Sailor Jupiter!"
"Sailor Pluto!"
The figures seemed to glow, and the figures became visible. They were five women in short skirts and tiaras. One of them held a tall, silver staff.
"Hello," Duo said, grinning brightly. The other boys rolled their eyes.
"Oh, the Sailors have arrived. Now we shall surely be vanquished," Alecto said sarcastically.
"That about sums it up," said Sailor Venus. She stepped forward and spun around. As she did, yellow chains spiraled around her.
"VENUS LOVE CHAIN ENCIRCLE!" she yelled. The chains were released, and smashed into the surprised Alecto, who collapsed from pain.
"What the H***?" Heero asked, surprised as everyone else. Venus glanced at him and flashed him a brief smile. Meanwhile, Sailor Jupiter was facing off with Tisiphone.
"So Jupiter. What are you doing here anyways? Aren't you supposed to be in Crystal Tokyo with that snooty Queen of yours?" she asked. Jupiter narrowed her eyes.
"I have a mission here. And it includes destroying you. JUPITER OAK EVOLUTION!" she yelled, hurling the electrical leaves at Tisiphone.
"AH! No!" she yelled, dashing into the woods.
From a safe distance, Trowa watched the five girls curiously. They looked and sounded strangely familiar. And they had shown up after the other girls had gone into the woods…
"Hello Mercury. I hope you're well?" Nemesis smirked. "After all, you said the pulse doesn't exist, so really there's no reason for you to be here."
Mercury froze. How could Nemesis know what…
"Get out of the way you impertinent fool!" Nemesis yelled. Mercury blinked and realized Duo was pushing her out of the way, just before Nemesis was about to attack.
"What is he doing?" she asked quietly. Duo glanced at her, winked, then pulled out a gun and aimed at Nemesis's head.
"The first thing you should learn is to never pick on girls," he said. Nemesis smiled.
"The pot calls the kettle black. DIE MORTAL!" she screamed, then her arms instantly transformed into a pair of maces.
"No! SHINE AQUA ILLUSION!" Mercury yelled. The wave of water washed over Nemesis, encasing her in ice.
"Cool! Very good reflexes," Duo grinned, helping Mercury up. She blushed.
"Uh t-thank you for helping m-me," she stammered. Duo patted her shoulder.
"No problem. But there still two more witches left. We should probably take care of them," he remarked. Mercury giggled and pointed at Pluto.
"I think Sailor Pluto's a few steps ahead of us," she replied.
On cue, Pluto raised her staff. Night and Megaera held each other's hand, braced for impact.
"DEAD SCREAM!" Pluto cried, launching the ball of energy. It made contact with the two enemies, who then grinned and sent it back at Pluto. It hit the stunned Sailor, and shoved her into a tree.
"Well, we've won the battle. But, we'd better refuel and regroup before we attack again. Farewell, all of you," Night said. Then she, Megaera, the unconscious Alecto and Tisiphone, and the frozen Nemesis vaporized.
"Pluto!" the other four Sailor cried in unison, then ran to their friend. Jupiter helped her up.
"Are you okay?" she asked.
"I-I think so," Pluto said, trying to catch her breath. Venus edged up to Jupiter.
"We need to get back to the woods so we can detransform," she whispered. Jupiter nodded.
"If the five of you are all right, we need to be going now," she said.
"Yeah, we're fine. We'd better find Trista and the other girls and make sure they're okay," Trowa replied. The Sailors nodded, and then disappeared into the woods.
The five boys were silent for a while.
"Well, that was an interesting experience," Duo said, then smiled at Wufei. "Wu-man, was it just me or were you getting beat by a girl?"
Wufei sniffed indignantly.
"She was no girl. She was a demon," he said.
"But if it weren't for the Sailors, you'd be dead," Duo smirked. "So much for weakling women."
"Who's calling who what now?" Mina asked, emerging from the woods followed by Amy, Raye, and Lita, who was helping a limping Trista. Quatre gave her a questioning look.
"Well, when we were running, Trista fell and hurt her ankle. Amy thinks it's probably a sprain, but she should really get medical attention," Mina added. Quatre thought a moment.
"We can take her to a hospital for the night. If you want, the four of you can stay at my house," he offered.
"Thanks Quatre. That's really sweet of you," Raye commented, causing the blond to blush furiously.
"You're just saying that because you think it's cute when he blushes," Lita remarked under her breath. Raye glared, and whacked her slightly.
"Well, we'd better get going. Trista's ankle is starting to swell," Trowa said. He glanced at Lita.
"If you need a break, I can take her," he said. Lita shrugged.
"Sure," she said, helping Trista lean on Trowa.
"Thanks Trowa," Trista said, ignoring the fact that Lita was now running away frantically from Raye.
"It's nothing. Come on," Trowa said, heading towards the road.
