Flames are MORE than welcome (This house could use the heat!).
Also!! I decided to borrow from the episode of "StarTrek: The Next Generation" that
guest-starred James Doohan of the orinal StarTrek. If you've ever seen that
episode, try to figure out who's playing a version of Doohan's role!

CHAPTER 6
I woke up fully-rested the following morning. It turned out to a wonderful dinner.. a bit surprising, considering the beef we all ate was raw.. although well seasoned! I'd heard of steak tartare, and figured my Turkic-ancestors probably ate their meat raw, but I'd never had truly-raw meat before! It was delicious, actually! Ayeka, however, looked like she had trouble getting that first slice down her throat! But, she seemed to do alright after that.. so much so that I started joking to the Masakis about their "Jurai Flytrap"!
After the meal, we helped Sasami clean up, then went outside to enjoy the stars, songs, stories, and dancing! Then, a few hours later, we migrated back to the house, where I managed- with Yosho and Tenchi's aide- to put together a shadow-play! I do so love the art of puppetry!
The next morning, I arose before the sun.. don't ask me how.. and wandered outside to get some fresh air. As I was wandering back to the house, however, I heard the sound of fighting.. and not from the Masaki-clan's usual-combatants! Instead of the Yak and Ryoko, or even Mihoshi and Kiyone, I hear my sister, Yuugi, and Sasami!
I sigh.
It is awfully hard for a rooster to crow when there's fighting in the henhouse!
"Come BACK HERE, You little VAMPIRE!" Amanda Serena is definitely up.
"Let's see if I can't get any blood outta YOU, Yuugi!"
Yuugi was just flying, floating, and phasing in-and-out just out of my
sister's reach.
This just made my dear sister angrier..
And, that made Yuugi grin and giggle more..
Which made my sister that much more angrier!
I run up short of breath.
"What's ... happening ... Sis?"
"I gotta pest-problem, Niisan!" Serena said, suddenly showing a VERY-
kowaii grin. "Nothing I can't handle, though."
"Alright." I sigh. It's too early in the morning for this. "What happened?"
"These Chibis woke me up with Nsync!"
I just stare at Amanda and the two Baka..
*Blink!*Blink!*
"And they're not DEAD, yet ?"
"Damned pair are faster than Ryo-ohki..." Amanda fumed.
"We tried to make it up to her..!" Sasami looked up kawaiily.
"Hai!" Yuugi smiled fiendishly. "But, Serena-Sama does not seem to like
'Barney'!"
I sigh.
"They're worse than our cousins back home, Niisan!"
I sigh again.
"At least you didn't die from the exposure, imouto-chan!" I manage to smile. "It couldn't have been *that* bad!"
I shouldn't have opened my mouth.
"Oh, YEAH?!?!" Serena screamed. "How'd YOU like to be blasted out of bed at 6:30 in the morning by Mick Jagger?!?!?!?!"
Damn! My sister sure knows how to put things in perspective!
"Screamer Jagger and the Rolling Stoned?" I answer my Imouto with amazing
calmness. Then, I yell.
"KILL BAKEMONO !!!!"
The two Bakemono in question started giggling!
Don't you just hate it when that happens?
I get ready to help my Imouto in the chase when I suddenly hear a very soft chuckle come from in back of me!
"Sasami has been around Ayeka a bit too much long!" Washuu smiled kawaiily.
I look down and smile back. "So.. what's Yuugi's excuse?"
Hakubi Washuu just smiled mysteriously, turned around, and chuckled some more.
'Why Did I even *ask* that?' I thought as I smirked. 'Washuu.. Ryoko..
Yuugi. Like mother, like daughter.. like grand-daughter!' I smile and shake
my head. 'I just hope the world's ready for the Hakubi clan!'
"Kelly-kun?" Washuu called back to me. "Tell your sister and the others to
get ready! We head to Tokyo in one hour!"
I grin and turned around, heading off toward Serena, Yuugi, and Sasami.
"Hey! Imouto-chan! Yuugi! Sasami! Hold on a minute!"
In half-an-hour, we were on the train bound for Tokyo. And, three hours
after that, we were rolling into town!
As we were stepping off the train, Washuu began rummaging around in her
bag for something! What is was, however, no one dared to ask! We were all a
*bit* afraid of what it might be!
After Washuu found what she was searching for- which looked a bit like
a walkie-talkie with a mini-monitor-screen- she looked up to see the rest
of us. Actually, I think what she mostly saw was me! The others, maybe from
experience or (in the case of my sister) common-sense, had stepped backwards
to get out of Washuu-chan's line-of-fire, and were now safely behind a fire-
break... ME! How Washu saw anyone besides me, I have no idea!
"Nani?"
Washuu starts to walk around me.
The others are moving around me on the other side.
After a couple of circles around me, Washuu-chan starts to walk, then run, in the other direction! After a couple more switchbacks, Washuu leys out the shrillest whistle I have ever heard!!
"Alright... LINE UP !!!!"
This woman would make a fantastic Drill-Sargeant!
"Alright," Washuu barked out. " Playtime's over! Tenchi.. Nobiyuki.. Yosho! Ayeka, Ryoko! Mihoshi, Kiyone! Serena! Why are you all hiding? You did not honestly think I was pulling out something DANGEROUS! did you?"
I started smiling, something told me this was going to get better.
Everyone in the line to my right was shaking their head, going, "NONONONONO !!!"...
I start chuckling. There are as bad at lying as my imouto is! They were
all thinking 'OF COURSE, WASHUU-CHAN!!'
Except, that is, for a couple of Galaxy Police at the end of the line!
Mihoshi and Kiyone are are the only ones willing to let the truth come out,
even if it isn't very loudly! They were both silently nodding their heads!
"You find this comical, Kelly-kun?"
Uh-oh! Busted!
"*Hehe* Hai *Hehehe!* Go..Gomen nisai.. Washuu-chan *snort*! But.. I had
a feeling.. this was *gasp!* when you saw the others behind me *heheheeee*!"
"Hai. And why did you stay standing where you were?" Washuu looked at me
with a questioning grin.
I took a breath to collect myself. "Well, I guess I figured we were all
safe as long as that.. whatever it is.. was not pointed in our direction."
"Hai! You have a strange sense of humor, Kelly-kun!"
"Hai. I admit my sense of humor is warped."
"Let it stay warped, then! You may survive this trip yet! By the way, this
an Extraterrestrial-Aural-Projection Detector!"
"An Extraterrestial..?" Serena started to ask in a slow voice.
"Aural-Projection Detector!" Washuu smiled.
"Try saying that five times fast." Ryoko smirked. "Hey, Hahai! Why do we
need that thing?"
"Good question, Ryoko! If you remember our lesson in my lab yesterday.."
"Who could forget it?" My Imouto shivered.
I moved slowly away from Amanda Serena.
"Nani-yo, niisan?" Amamda asked.
**!!!! CRASH !!!!**
"Owwieeee.." Amanda whimpered.
"Are.. you ok, imouto-chan?" I softly asked.
"I.. think so." Amanda said. "Gomen nisai, Washuu-chan!"
"Anyway," Washuu continued with the impromptu-lecture, "do you remember
how both Kelly and Amanda gave off readable Juuraian-auras? And Mercurian,
Venutian, Martial, Jovian, and other auras? Even though they were a few dozen
generations away from a full-blooded Juuraian ancestor?"
"Hai? So?" Ayeka countered. "Certainly the Jovians, Mercurians, and others we
seek will be recognizable as such!"
**!!!! CRASH !!!!**
Serena grinned evilly. The Yak showed symptoms of Foot-in-Mouth Disease
yet again!
Foot-in-Mouth must be epidemic on Juurai.
"Oooooooooooooooooch!" Ayeka whined. "Was is something I said?"
"I think Washuu-Sensei is saying that the ones who hold the Auras may have
been on Earth for many generations, Ayeka-Sama! Therefor, they may look
more Earthan than anything else!" Mihoshi answered.
"When did you get so smart, Mihoshi?" Kiyone blinked.
"Exactly, Mihoshi-chan!" Washuu grinned. "Anyhow, I'm showing a congregation of extraterrestrial auras in this district! They're off..", Washuu turned to face the
auras, "in *this* direction! Come!"
"By the way..", Yosho asked, "does anyone know what district we are in?"
"Juuban, I think." Tenchi replied.
After a couple of hours wandering around the Juuban District, the alarm on
the Detector began to beep loud and rapidly!
"Oh oh, people!" Washuu cackled, "We are about to have contact! Coming out
of the east! And it's coming up FAST !!!!"
"From the east, Washuu?" I asked. "Where? I don't see.."
That is where we ran into each other.
This girl broadsides me, and we spill.. just in time for Amanda Serena to
walk right into us!
"OOOOF!!!!"
*Thud!*
*Thud!*
*Thud!*
We start struggling to disentangle from each other and get up, to brush
ourselves off.
"Gomen nisai!" A soft female voice said.
"Gomen muyo!"
"Speak for yourself, Niisan! What hit us?"
"Hmmm.." I answer Serena. "The Bullet Train?"
That's when I look up at who hit us.. and stare in shock!
"Oh, my god.. Imouto-chan.. It's.. the Barbie-Doll!"
Amanda turned around. "Oh, my.. What the Hell?"
"'Barbie Doll'?
"Ah! Gomen nisai!" It is my turn to apologize! "It is just, you look like.."
Washuu then interrupts, wearing the finest clothes of a Kumani cheiftain.
"Kelly-Sama? Amanda-San? May I introduce you to one of your itoko!"
"Itoko?" The Barbie-Doll in the buns and tails asked.
"Cousin?" Serena and I asked.
"Hai!" Washuu chirped. Then, she bowed gracefully towards the pigtailed-
woman "Konnichi-wa, Usagi-no-Tsuki!"
The young-lady, now known as Usagi, just stared open-mouthed...
"Do.. I know you?"
"Iie." Washuu smiled. "But you look so much like your mother, you can be
no one else."
"My.. my mother?" Usagi stammered. "You.. knew my mother?"
"Hai." Washuu smiled- a sort of sad, far-away look in her eyes. "Queen
Serenity was a friend when I needed one.. when they were hard to find."
"Wow, Hahai!" Ryoko showed a real smile. "You know the best people!"
"One of you escapes from Jurai, Washuu-chan?" Ayeka smirked.
"Hai." Washuu sighed.
Ryoko and Nagi just glared at Ayeka.
"And how much was the price of your head, then?" Ayeka asked smugly.
Washuu suddenly grinned evilly. "Watch the mouth... Water-Sprite!"
Mihoshi giggled.
Kiyone wore a bewildered look on her face.
Amanda and I then turned to see Ayeka get this sick-look on her face!
"Gomen.. Washuu-chan.. it will not happen again."
"So!" I asked, extending my hand, "you are our itoko, Usagi-San?"
"I.. guess.. but from where?"
"Many generations back in history!" Serena smiled. "And a few thousand
miles to the west!"
"Ah!" Usagi smiled sweetly. "Arigatou.. I loved meeting you! And.."
Suddenly, Usagi heard the chiming of a near-by clock.
"OHMYGODIHAVETOGETTOTHEMEETINGBYE!!!"
Usagi then jumped up to run, when my sister grabbed her arm, yanking
her back!
"Hey! Can you slow down a bit?" Serena then pointed toward me. "He hasn't
had his morning-coffee and is REALLY slow today..."
"Don't listen to her, Usagi!" I kid me imouto. "She's just using me as a
crutch! She needs to rehear that as much as I do!"
Serena shot out her tongue at me. I ignored it.. for the moment.
"Besides," I smile, "the coffee only helps a little bit!"
Collecting herself, Usagi repeated the message at a speed we understood.
"Gomen nisai!" Usagi said. "I have to get to a meeting. I gotta go!"
Usagi was about to leave to her meeting.. again.. when sudddenly she
spun around.. again!
"Umm, Washuu-Sama?" Usagi bowed. "Would you mind coming with me? I'd like
for my friends to meet you! After all, you did know my Mother."
"Certainly, Your Highness!" Washuuchan smiled "But, may I ask if my friends
can come along? Especially Kelly-kun and Sere-chan?"
"Well," Usagi thought, "They ARE my itoko. Of course they can come!"
In a few minutes, Washuu, Serena, and I- and the rest of the tribe- were
settling-down on the grounds of the Hikawa Jinja! Not only were we allowed
inside to rest, as friends of Usagi, but, thanks to Yosho being a Shinto priest, we were allowed to stay the night! Usagi helped us settle down,
then left for her meeting.
After about an hour, the meeting must have broken up, because Usagi is coming out with about eight other woman.
"Niisan?" Amanda whispered to me.
"Hai. I see them, too, Imouto-chan!" I slowly smile. "The rest of the Barbie-Doll Squadron. Konnichi-wa, ladies! You are friends of our itoko?"
"Usagi-chan's ITOKO?" A girl in short-cut blue hair asked. "But.. you sound
like.. look like.. Americans?"
"Hai." I chuckle. "We're the side of the Lunar-family that they'd probably
like to forget!"
"Lunarians ?" A tall brunette in a ponytail asked.
"Hai.." I continue. "So we've figured!"
"Hmmmm... hai." Usagi looked us up and down as if guaging us. "Well. Minna?
This is Kelly Paul Graham, and his.. imouto?.. Amanda Serena! And, this is
Hakubi Washuu-chan! And this is.."
"Hakubi WASHUU??" A sea-green-haired woman shouted out. "WASHU-NO-KUCHIKU??
Haruka!! We must transform!!!! Neptune STAR POWER!!!!"
Oh, shit.
"URANUS STAR POWER!!!!"
I look to Washuu-chan. "Washuu-of-Destruction? Is there a problem here,
Washuu?"
"Yeah, Washuu!" Serena asked. "What gives?"
Unfortunately, we move right into everyone's line-of-fire!
"Uranus WORLD-SHAKING!!!!"
"Nepune DEEP-SUBMERGE!!!!"
Somedays are meant for just staying in bed!
Amanda Serena and I get blasted by two big freaking balls of energy!
Somehow, we don't die from it, but I bet we'll be sore for a month!
Unfortunately, this brings a responce from the Hakubi-Masaki Clan,
and we *feel* the Juuraian-Power! Damn.. this is gonna add a month to
the recuperation-time!
You know how it's said everything comes around in threes? Well, first,
there were the World-Shaking and Deep-Submerge attacks, then there were
the Juuraian, and I'm sure Hakubi counter-attacks, so.. third should be...
"Mercury Aqua RAPSODY!!!!"
"Mars Flame SNIPER!!!!"
"Jupiter Oak EVOLUTION!!!!"
"Venus Love and Beauty SHOCK!!!!"
"Dead-o Scream."
DAMMIT! This is gonna keep my sis and I stuck in recovery for a YEAR!!!!
How we do what we do next, I *still* have trouble figuring out- even after
Washuu-sensei explained it later! We should have been dead! Never mind
fighting back! But that's just what we did!
Slowly, Sere and I got to our feet. It was kind of hard to see anything,
much less reconize it! And, hearing clearly was next to impossible. There was
just too much enegry crackling around us! And in us! Well, I guess Amanda felt the same way I did. We had to get rid of the energies in us, and we *somehow* knew where the girls were who threw these things at us. So...
"One 'Dead-Scream'... RETURNED-TO-SENDER!"
"Whoever threw it... TAKE YOUR *DAMNED* SHOCK BACK!"
"Oak Evolution... RETURN!"
"Flame Sniper FLY!"
"Aqua Rapsody .. SAYANARA!"
After throwing energies around, I think we were both able to see a little
clearer.
"Oh, my god!" Serena asked in bewilderment as we saw five ladies on the
ground. "Did we do THAT?"
"I think so." I slowly turned to the Masakis. "Ayeka? Ryo-oko? Nagi? Thanks for trying to help, but.. how do we get rid of this energy?"
"Shoot it off at something, Graham-Sama!" Ayeka suggested.
"OK!?!? If you say so!"
Amanda and I look around.
"Please don't hurt my Shrine?" The girl with the long, black hair seemed
to say as she weakly stirred around.
"Then WHERE in the HELL do we fire this stuff at?" Serena asked with an
annoyed growl.
"IN THE AIR!" I answer, and Amanda and I take aim at the sky. And, for
a moment, the sky lights up with a laser-light show!
"OOOOOOOWWWWW!! I feel SO much better!!" Amanda smiled. "But I *still*
have some energy at my fingertips! And it STINGS!!!!"
"Well.." I turn toward the sea-girl-haired woman and the short-cropped
blonde who started this mess. "We can always give these things back to their
owners."
"WORLD-SHAKING!!!!"
"DEEP-SUBMERGE!!!!"
*BOOM!!!!*
*CRASH!!!!*
My head starts to swim. "Y'know somethin', Ser...? That was funny.. ohhh!"
*THUD!!*
*THUMP!!*
"Hotaru!! Come quick!!" I thought I heard Usagi say. "My itoko needs
your aid!"
"Well, Washuu-chan!" I heard the Yak say as I was waking up, "it seems
you've made some enemies of the Senshi!"
"Hai." Washuu sighed. "And just because someone misused a measuring-
instrument and turned it into an energy-draining weapon !!!"
"I am sure that, knowing you, Washuu-chan, it could have been used for
both purposes." The Yak let out another laugh.
Damn! Ayeka was becoming half-way likeable, too!
"Only if you mis-handled the instrument, Ayeka-chan!" Washuu said with
a smile. "However, that shouldn't have happened! Not after the kill-mechanisms I built into it.. at the request of the one who asked me to build it."
"But who would ask you to BUILD such a weapon?!?!" Haruka demanded.
"It was NOT a WEAPON!!!!" Washuu scolded Haruka. "Queen Serenity the 7th
would never have asked that a weapon be built! She didn't need one, and would
not have asked for one to be built if she had even needed it!"
The Jinja became deathly-silent.
"My.. hahai.. requested this instrument?" Usagi asked.
"Hai. She said that she needed to know the strengths and abilities of her
Court before she was installed as the next Queen. A very smart women, I would
think!"
"A.. test?" the tall brunette asked in wonder. "But.. weren't the powers of the Senshi already known?" She then sweat-dropped.
"Well.. errr..", the small, blue-haired young girl spoke up. "Actually..
Usagi asked me to run some similar tests on us."
Every Senshi, except for Usagi and the blue-haired girl, face-faulted.
"But," the one named Michiru spoke up. "That does not EXCUSE you from
building a DANGEROUS weapon, Hakubi Washuu! Under Lunarian law, therefor.."
"IT WAS NOT A WEAPON!!!!" Washuu screeched. Then, she recovered herself.
"As for Lunarian law, I was cleared under that law! By Queen Serenity's mother, Queen Serenity the 6th, herself! After the instrument exploded, an inquiry was held in the Queen's Chamber. After the evidence was studied, Her Majesty rendered the verdict as 'accidental discharge by another', and the verdict was inscribed in the Lunarian Annals. So, I am a free woman. By Lunarian law and Serenity's hand!"
"A.. free..?" Michiru stammered.
"You know.. I think I remember Queen Serenity saying something about this." Luna spoke up.
Perfect timing, Swiss-cheese-brained cat!
"But.. if you.. did.. not.. *touch* the instrument.." Haruka joined in the
stammering-contest, "then who did?"
"I believe that the Annals said the last one in the room the device was in
was the Princess of Venus?" A white cat volunteered.
Oops! Busted!
I chuckled. "Sounds like something the Senshi of Venus could do VERY
easily!" I whispered to Amanda Serena. "It may have been her predeccessor,
and not today's Senshi, herself, BUT !!!! Well, let's just say Venus may
have always been known for its Potted Plants!"
Serena snickered. The things we've heard about the Sailorsenshi, by and
large, seemed to be true.
"If it involves mechanical parts and-or electronics..." I smirked, "keep
the Venutians AWAY from it !!!!"
"This just in.." I started talking like a TV-newsman, "The entire Power-grid for the island-nation of Japan has CRASHED !!! Everything from the Kuriles to Iwo Jima has gone black! Satillite-photos show a sudden, brilliant surge of electricity over the islands.. followed by an eerie darkness!"
The Juuraian-royalty, Yuugi, and Ryoko are dying of laughter. Everyone
else starts looking at Minako-chan!
"So far, no one has claimed responsibility."
While the rest of House Masaki-Hakubi is enjoying the *strangeness* of the situation ("Strangeness" being a relative-term.. VERY "relative"), Mihoshi and Kiyone have moved up to the Senshi of Uranus and Neptune.
THIS *could* get interesting!
"That does not matter!" Haruka snapped out. "Hakubi Washuu still built the
weapon! She is STILL responsible for it! And, she is STILL a manace to our
world and MUST be dealt with! Hand her over!"
The Terrible Two advance toward Washuu..
"KIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIYAAAAAAAAH!!!!"
*THUD!*
*THUD!*
"WOOOOOOOOF!!!!"
Uranus and Neptune are now on their knees, wearing Galaxy-Police bootprints in the front of their Sailor-uniforms!
I grin. I bet they never even HEARD that coming, much less saw it!
"Nani?" Neptune asked.
"We are arresting you for breaking Galactic Code #005416375-42A.14A!" Kiyone shouted. "'Kidnapping and False-Arrest!" She then looked at Mihoshi. "I CAN change them with 'Kidnapping', Hai?"
"Hai!" Mihoshi answered. "They would have had to kidnap her to make their
plan work. The 'False-Charges' charge will definitely stick!"
"You can't do this!" Neptune sputtered. "We will not let.. *Grrph*!"
Suddenly the Two Senshi are eating dirt, their faces shoved HARD into
the soil! Mihoshi and Kiyone have a hand around each Senshi's wrists, and a
knee into the small of their backs!
DAMN! These girls play rough!
"Would you like to add 'Resisting Arrest' to the charges?!?!" Mihoshi
screeched!
"Usagi.. ?" Haruka softly whimpered.
"Gomen nisai, Haruka-san!" Usagi answered. "But, what can I do? It IS
Galactic Code you tried to break!" She then muttered low, "Along with my
Grandmother's law."
I chuckle. Usagi-chan will be a fun-relative to know!
"HEY!!!! WHAT just happened here??" Sailorjupiter gaped. "This has my head
spinning! And what TRAIN hit this place?"
Hmmm.. I was going to say she's a bright girl. Now.. I was not so sure!
"I ask AGAIN.. WHAT hit this PLACE?"
Hmmm.. for the sake of Tokyo, someone best *answer* her..
And that's JUST what our itoko did! With mischievious grins on their
faces, Mihoshi, Kiyone, Sasami, Ayeka, Ryoko, Yuugi and Nagi pointed to Serena and me:
"Ask them!"
I tried my DAMNEDEST to stay calm and collected.. REALLY I did!
Unfortunately, Serena and I got ULTRA-defensive and pointed to Haruka and
Michiru:
"THEY STARTED IT !!!!"
Sailorjupiter winced. "What I wanna know is... Who finished it? And don't
yell..", her voice quieted down. "Onegai?"
Both Serena and I looked a bit embarassed towards Sailorejupiter.
"Well.. ahh.." I fumbled for the right words. "*We* kinda.. finished it."
"You.. finished it?" Jupiter's voice got so high it almost disappeared in
a squeak. "How?"
"Well..ahh.." To say I was nervous would have been am unerstatement.
"We..", I started to mumble, "took your powers and through them back at you."
"Nani?" Jupiter asked.
"We tossed your powers back at you."
"NANI????"
"WE SERVED YOU YOUR ASSES BACK TO YOU ON A PLATTER!!!!" Serena screamed.
"ARE YOU *HARD*.. OF.. HEARING????"
"You served our.. Why, you little.." Jupiter seemed to be getting aggrevated, then she struck her battle pose.
Two words: Oh, Shit.
"JUPITER.."
"Mako-chan?" Usagi asked in concern.
"THUNDER.."
"I would not.."
"DRAGON!!!"
"Never mind." Usagi sighed.
You ever have one of those days?
*KA-KRACK! BOOM!*
I don't know what Ser's excuse was.. maybe she likes pain.. but I was just too slow! Anyway, that *damned* Dragon got us both !!!!
"WHAT are you trying to do... lady?" My Imouto growled out after the smoke cleared. "Char-BROIL us????"
"How about putting your dragon on a LEASH, kid?!?!?!" I snapped out.
Were we irritated? Just a little.
We then re-gathered the Dragon and tossed the silly thing *back* to Jupiter!
*KA-KRACK! BOOM!*
Fireworks and lightning go off all-around! It was the BEST show I'd seen!
When the smoke finall cleared, Jupiter was still standing.. singed- but
standing! "Mmmm..", I said, licking my lips, "Blackened Senshi! I wonder if
Emeril has the recipe?"
"COOL TRICK! Hey, Makoto!" Serena squealed with laughter. "Do you do
parties?"
Makoto was in shock.. for a second. "How did you do that? I don't CARE!
You are DEAD!"
"Oh, dear..", Usagi-itoko sighed. "Hotaru-chan? Prepare for triage."
"Jupiter... Oak... EVOLUTION !!!"
Thousands of electric leaves fly around us, slicing us a bit, but, mostly,
scaring us silly! However, we did recover our senses! And, when we were FINALLY able to wade through the stupid leaves.. we were madder than
HELL !!!!
"Shimatte!" My imouto hissed out. "Sailoruranus? Meet Sailoruranus, Junior. A true girl-of-action... VERY little thought!"
I chuckled. "You know something, Jupiter? If you had a brain, you'd be
dangerous!"

CHAPTER 6
I woke up fully-rested the following morning. It turned out to a wonderful dinner.. a bit surprising, considering the beef we all ate was raw.. although well seasoned! I'd heard of steak tartare, and figured my Turkic-ancestors probably ate their meat raw, but I'd never had truly-raw meat before! It was delicious, actually! Ayeka, however, looked like she had trouble getting that first slice down her throat! But, she seemed to do alright after that.. so much so that I started joking to the Masakis about their "Jurai Flytrap"!
After the meal, we helped Sasami clean up, then went outside to enjoy the stars, songs, stories, and dancing! Then, a few hours later, we migrated back to the house, where I managed- with Yosho and Tenchi's aide- to put together a shadow-play! I do so love the art of puppetry!
The next morning, I arose before the sun.. don't ask me how.. and wandered outside to get some fresh air. As I was wandering back to the house, however, I heard the sound of fighting.. and not from the Masaki-clan's usual-combatants! Instead of the Yak and Ryoko, or even Mihoshi and Kiyone, I hear my sister, Yuugi, and Sasami!
I sigh.
It is awfully hard for a rooster to crow when there's fighting in the henhouse!
"Come BACK HERE, You little VAMPIRE!" Amanda Serena is definitely up.
"Let's see if I can't get any blood outta YOU, Yuugi!"
Yuugi was just flying, floating, and phasing in-and-out just out of my
sister's reach.
This just made my dear sister angrier..
And, that made Yuugi grin and giggle more..
Which made my sister that much more angrier!
I run up short of breath.
"What's ... happening ... Sis?"
"I gotta pest-problem, Niisan!" Serena said, suddenly showing a VERY-
kowaii grin. "Nothing I can't handle, though."
"Alright." I sigh. It's too early in the morning for this. "What happened?"
"These Chibis woke me up with Nsync!"
I just stare at Amanda and the two Baka..
*Blink!*Blink!*
"And they're not DEAD, yet ?"
"Damned pair are faster than Ryo-ohki..." Amanda fumed.
"We tried to make it up to her..!" Sasami looked up kawaiily.
"Hai!" Yuugi smiled fiendishly. "But, Serena-Sama does not seem to like
'Barney'!"
I sigh.
"They're worse than our cousins back home, Niisan!"
I sigh again.
"At least you didn't die from the exposure, imouto-chan!" I manage to smile. "It couldn't have been *that* bad!"
I shouldn't have opened my mouth.
"Oh, YEAH?!?!" Serena screamed. "How'd YOU like to be blasted out of bed at 6:30 in the morning by Mick Jagger?!?!?!?!"
Damn! My sister sure knows how to put things in perspective!
"Screamer Jagger and the Rolling Stoned?" I answer my Imouto with amazing
calmness. Then, I yell.
"KILL BAKEMONO !!!!"
The two Bakemono in question started giggling!
Don't you just hate it when that happens?
I get ready to help my Imouto in the chase when I suddenly hear a very soft chuckle come from in back of me!
"Sasami has been around Ayeka a bit too much long!" Washuu smiled kawaiily.
I look down and smile back. "So.. what's Yuugi's excuse?"
Hakubi Washuu just smiled mysteriously, turned around, and chuckled some more.
'Why Did I even *ask* that?' I thought as I smirked. 'Washuu.. Ryoko..
Yuugi. Like mother, like daughter.. like grand-daughter!' I smile and shake
my head. 'I just hope the world's ready for the Hakubi clan!'
"Kelly-kun?" Washuu called back to me. "Tell your sister and the others to
get ready! We head to Tokyo in one hour!"
I grin and turned around, heading off toward Serena, Yuugi, and Sasami.
"Hey! Imouto-chan! Yuugi! Sasami! Hold on a minute!"
In half-an-hour, we were on the train bound for Tokyo. And, three hours
after that, we were rolling into town!
As we were stepping off the train, Washuu began rummaging around in her
bag for something! What is was, however, no one dared to ask! We were all a
*bit* afraid of what it might be!
After Washuu found what she was searching for- which looked a bit like
a walkie-talkie with a mini-monitor-screen- she looked up to see the rest
of us. Actually, I think what she mostly saw was me! The others, maybe from
experience or (in the case of my sister) common-sense, had stepped backwards
to get out of Washuu-chan's line-of-fire, and were now safely behind a fire-
break... ME! How Washu saw anyone besides me, I have no idea!
"Nani?"
Washuu starts to walk around me.
The others are moving around me on the other side.
After a couple of circles around me, Washuu-chan starts to walk, then run, in the other direction! After a couple more switchbacks, Washuu leys out the shrillest whistle I have ever heard!!
"Alright... LINE UP !!!!"
This woman would make a fantastic Drill-Sargeant!
"Alright," Washuu barked out. " Playtime's over! Tenchi.. Nobiyuki.. Yosho! Ayeka, Ryoko! Mihoshi, Kiyone! Serena! Why are you all hiding? You did not honestly think I was pulling out something DANGEROUS! did you?"
I started smiling, something told me this was going to get better.
Everyone in the line to my right was shaking their head, going, "NONONONONO !!!"...
I start chuckling. There are as bad at lying as my imouto is! They were
all thinking 'OF COURSE, WASHUU-CHAN!!'
Except, that is, for a couple of Galaxy Police at the end of the line!
Mihoshi and Kiyone are are the only ones willing to let the truth come out,
even if it isn't very loudly! They were both silently nodding their heads!
"You find this comical, Kelly-kun?"
Uh-oh! Busted!
"*Hehe* Hai *Hehehe!* Go..Gomen nisai.. Washuu-chan *snort*! But.. I had
a feeling.. this was *gasp!* when you saw the others behind me *heheheeee*!"
"Hai. And why did you stay standing where you were?" Washuu looked at me
with a questioning grin.
I took a breath to collect myself. "Well, I guess I figured we were all
safe as long as that.. whatever it is.. was not pointed in our direction."
"Hai! You have a strange sense of humor, Kelly-kun!"
"Hai. I admit my sense of humor is warped."
"Let it stay warped, then! You may survive this trip yet! By the way, this
an Extraterrestrial-Aural-Projection Detector!"
"An Extraterrestial..?" Serena started to ask in a slow voice.
"Aural-Projection Detector!" Washuu smiled.
"Try saying that five times fast." Ryoko smirked. "Hey, Hahai! Why do we
need that thing?"
"Good question, Ryoko! If you remember our lesson in my lab yesterday.."
"Who could forget it?" My Imouto shivered.
I moved slowly away from Amanda Serena.
"Nani-yo, niisan?" Amamda asked.
**!!!! CRASH !!!!**
"Owwieeee.." Amanda whimpered.
"Are.. you ok, imouto-chan?" I softly asked.
"I.. think so." Amanda said. "Gomen nisai, Washuu-chan!"
"Anyway," Washuu continued with the impromptu-lecture, "do you remember
how both Kelly and Amanda gave off readable Juuraian-auras? And Mercurian,
Venutian, Martial, Jovian, and other auras? Even though they were a few dozen
generations away from a full-blooded Juuraian ancestor?"
"Hai? So?" Ayeka countered. "Certainly the Jovians, Mercurians, and others we
seek will be recognizable as such!"
**!!!! CRASH !!!!**
Serena grinned evilly. The Yak showed symptoms of Foot-in-Mouth Disease
yet again!
Foot-in-Mouth must be epidemic on Juurai.
"Oooooooooooooooooch!" Ayeka whined. "Was is something I said?"
"I think Washuu-Sensei is saying that the ones who hold the Auras may have
been on Earth for many generations, Ayeka-Sama! Therefor, they may look
more Earthan than anything else!" Mihoshi answered.
"When did you get so smart, Mihoshi?" Kiyone blinked.
"Exactly, Mihoshi-chan!" Washuu grinned. "Anyhow, I'm showing a congregation of extraterrestrial auras in this district! They're off..", Washuu turned to face the
auras, "in *this* direction! Come!"
"By the way..", Yosho asked, "does anyone know what district we are in?"
"Juuban, I think." Tenchi replied.
After a couple of hours wandering around the Juuban District, the alarm on
the Detector began to beep loud and rapidly!
"Oh oh, people!" Washuu cackled, "We are about to have contact! Coming out
of the east! And it's coming up FAST !!!!"
"From the east, Washuu?" I asked. "Where? I don't see.."
That is where we ran into each other.
This girl broadsides me, and we spill.. just in time for Amanda Serena to
walk right into us!
"OOOOF!!!!"
*Thud!*
*Thud!*
*Thud!*
We start struggling to disentangle from each other and get up, to brush
ourselves off.
"Gomen nisai!" A soft female voice said.
"Gomen muyo!"
"Speak for yourself, Niisan! What hit us?"
"Hmmm.." I answer Serena. "The Bullet Train?"
That's when I look up at who hit us.. and stare in shock!
"Oh, my god.. Imouto-chan.. It's.. the Barbie-Doll!"
Amanda turned around. "Oh, my.. What the Hell?"
"'Barbie Doll'?
"Ah! Gomen nisai!" It is my turn to apologize! "It is just, you look like.."
Washuu then interrupts, wearing the finest clothes of a Kumani cheiftain.
"Kelly-Sama? Amanda-San? May I introduce you to one of your itoko!"
"Itoko?" The Barbie-Doll in the buns and tails asked.
"Cousin?" Serena and I asked.
"Hai!" Washuu chirped. Then, she bowed gracefully towards the pigtailed-
woman "Konnichi-wa, Usagi-no-Tsuki!"
The young-lady, now known as Usagi, just stared open-mouthed...
"Do.. I know you?"
"Iie." Washuu smiled. "But you look so much like your mother, you can be
no one else."
"My.. my mother?" Usagi stammered. "You.. knew my mother?"
"Hai." Washuu smiled- a sort of sad, far-away look in her eyes. "Queen
Serenity was a friend when I needed one.. when they were hard to find."
"Wow, Hahai!" Ryoko showed a real smile. "You know the best people!"
"One of you escapes from Jurai, Washuu-chan?" Ayeka smirked.
"Hai." Washuu sighed.
Ryoko and Nagi just glared at Ayeka.
"And how much was the price of your head, then?" Ayeka asked smugly.
Washuu suddenly grinned evilly. "Watch the mouth... Water-Sprite!"
Mihoshi giggled.
Kiyone wore a bewildered look on her face.
Amanda and I then turned to see Ayeka get this sick-look on her face!
"Gomen.. Washuu-chan.. it will not happen again."
"So!" I asked, extending my hand, "you are our itoko, Usagi-San?"
"I.. guess.. but from where?"
"Many generations back in history!" Serena smiled. "And a few thousand
miles to the west!"
"Ah!" Usagi smiled sweetly. "Arigatou.. I loved meeting you! And.."
Suddenly, Usagi heard the chiming of a near-by clock.
"OHMYGODIHAVETOGETTOTHEMEETINGBYE!!!"
Usagi then jumped up to run, when my sister grabbed her arm, yanking
her back!
"Hey! Can you slow down a bit?" Serena then pointed toward me. "He hasn't
had his morning-coffee and is REALLY slow today..."
"Don't listen to her, Usagi!" I kid me imouto. "She's just using me as a
crutch! She needs to rehear that as much as I do!"
Serena shot out her tongue at me. I ignored it.. for the moment.
"Besides," I smile, "the coffee only helps a little bit!"
Collecting herself, Usagi repeated the message at a speed we understood.
"Gomen nisai!" Usagi said. "I have to get to a meeting. I gotta go!"
Usagi was about to leave to her meeting.. again.. when sudddenly she
spun around.. again!
"Umm, Washuu-Sama?" Usagi bowed. "Would you mind coming with me? I'd like
for my friends to meet you! After all, you did know my Mother."
"Certainly, Your Highness!" Washuuchan smiled "But, may I ask if my friends
can come along? Especially Kelly-kun and Sere-chan?"
"Well," Usagi thought, "They ARE my itoko. Of course they can come!"
In a few minutes, Washuu, Serena, and I- and the rest of the tribe- were
settling-down on the grounds of the Hikawa Jinja! Not only were we allowed
inside to rest, as friends of Usagi, but, thanks to Yosho being a Shinto priest, we were allowed to stay the night! Usagi helped us settle down,
then left for her meeting.
After about an hour, the meeting must have broken up, because Usagi is coming out with about eight other woman.
"Niisan?" Amanda whispered to me.
"Hai. I see them, too, Imouto-chan!" I slowly smile. "The rest of the Barbie-Doll Squadron. Konnichi-wa, ladies! You are friends of our itoko?"
"Usagi-chan's ITOKO?" A girl in short-cut blue hair asked. "But.. you sound
like.. look like.. Americans?"
"Hai." I chuckle. "We're the side of the Lunar-family that they'd probably
like to forget!"
"Lunarians ?" A tall brunette in a ponytail asked.
"Hai.." I continue. "So we've figured!"
"Hmmmm... hai." Usagi looked us up and down as if guaging us. "Well. Minna?
This is Kelly Paul Graham, and his.. imouto?.. Amanda Serena! And, this is
Hakubi Washuu-chan! And this is.."
"Hakubi WASHUU??" A sea-green-haired woman shouted out. "WASHU-NO-KUCHIKU??
Haruka!! We must transform!!!! Neptune STAR POWER!!!!"
Oh, shit.
"URANUS STAR POWER!!!!"
I look to Washuu-chan. "Washuu-of-Destruction? Is there a problem here,
Washuu?"
"Yeah, Washuu!" Serena asked. "What gives?"
Unfortunately, we move right into everyone's line-of-fire!
"Uranus WORLD-SHAKING!!!!"
"Nepune DEEP-SUBMERGE!!!!"
Somedays are meant for just staying in bed!
Amanda Serena and I get blasted by two big freaking balls of energy!
Somehow, we don't die from it, but I bet we'll be sore for a month!
Unfortunately, this brings a responce from the Hakubi-Masaki Clan,
and we *feel* the Juuraian-Power! Damn.. this is gonna add a month to
the recuperation-time!
You know how it's said everything comes around in threes? Well, first,
there were the World-Shaking and Deep-Submerge attacks, then there were
the Juuraian, and I'm sure Hakubi counter-attacks, so.. third should be...
"Mercury Aqua RAPSODY!!!!"
"Mars Flame SNIPER!!!!"
"Jupiter Oak EVOLUTION!!!!"
"Venus Love and Beauty SHOCK!!!!"
"Dead-o Scream."
DAMMIT! This is gonna keep my sis and I stuck in recovery for a YEAR!!!!
How we do what we do next, I *still* have trouble figuring out- even after
Washuu-sensei explained it later! We should have been dead! Never mind
fighting back! But that's just what we did!
Slowly, Sere and I got to our feet. It was kind of hard to see anything,
much less reconize it! And, hearing clearly was next to impossible. There was
just too much enegry crackling around us! And in us! Well, I guess Amanda felt the same way I did. We had to get rid of the energies in us, and we *somehow* knew where the girls were who threw these things at us. So...
"One 'Dead-Scream'... RETURNED-TO-SENDER!"
"Whoever threw it... TAKE YOUR *DAMNED* SHOCK BACK!"
"Oak Evolution... RETURN!"
"Flame Sniper FLY!"
"Aqua Rapsody .. SAYANARA!"
After throwing energies around, I think we were both able to see a little
clearer.
"Oh, my god!" Serena asked in bewilderment as we saw five ladies on the
ground. "Did we do THAT?"
"I think so." I slowly turned to the Masakis. "Ayeka? Ryo-oko? Nagi? Thanks for trying to help, but.. how do we get rid of this energy?"
"Shoot it off at something, Graham-Sama!" Ayeka suggested.
"OK!?!? If you say so!"
Amanda and I look around.
"Please don't hurt my Shrine?" The girl with the long, black hair seemed
to say as she weakly stirred around.
"Then WHERE in the HELL do we fire this stuff at?" Serena asked with an
annoyed growl.
"IN THE AIR!" I answer, and Amanda and I take aim at the sky. And, for
a moment, the sky lights up with a laser-light show!
"OOOOOOOWWWWW!! I feel SO much better!!" Amanda smiled. "But I *still*
have some energy at my fingertips! And it STINGS!!!!"
"Well.." I turn toward the sea-girl-haired woman and the short-cropped
blonde who started this mess. "We can always give these things back to their
owners."
"WORLD-SHAKING!!!!"
"DEEP-SUBMERGE!!!!"
*BOOM!!!!*
*CRASH!!!!*
My head starts to swim. "Y'know somethin', Ser...? That was funny.. ohhh!"
*THUD!!*
*THUMP!!*
"Hotaru!! Come quick!!" I thought I heard Usagi say. "My itoko needs
your aid!"
"Well, Washuu-chan!" I heard the Yak say as I was waking up, "it seems
you've made some enemies of the Senshi!"
"Hai." Washuu sighed. "And just because someone misused a measuring-
instrument and turned it into an energy-draining weapon !!!"
"I am sure that, knowing you, Washuu-chan, it could have been used for
both purposes." The Yak let out another laugh.
Damn! Ayeka was becoming half-way likeable, too!
"Only if you mis-handled the instrument, Ayeka-chan!" Washuu said with
a smile. "However, that shouldn't have happened! Not after the kill-mechanisms I built into it.. at the request of the one who asked me to build it."
"But who would ask you to BUILD such a weapon?!?!" Haruka demanded.
"It was NOT a WEAPON!!!!" Washuu scolded Haruka. "Queen Serenity the 7th
would never have asked that a weapon be built! She didn't need one, and would
not have asked for one to be built if she had even needed it!"
The Jinja became deathly-silent.
"My.. hahai.. requested this instrument?" Usagi asked.
"Hai. She said that she needed to know the strengths and abilities of her
Court before she was installed as the next Queen. A very smart women, I would
think!"
"A.. test?" the tall brunette asked in wonder. "But.. weren't the powers of the Senshi already known?" She then sweat-dropped.
"Well.. errr..", the small, blue-haired young girl spoke up. "Actually..
Usagi asked me to run some similar tests on us."
Every Senshi, except for Usagi and the blue-haired girl, face-faulted.
"But," the one named Michiru spoke up. "That does not EXCUSE you from
building a DANGEROUS weapon, Hakubi Washuu! Under Lunarian law, therefor.."
"IT WAS NOT A WEAPON!!!!" Washuu screeched. Then, she recovered herself.
"As for Lunarian law, I was cleared under that law! By Queen Serenity's mother, Queen Serenity the 6th, herself! After the instrument exploded, an inquiry was held in the Queen's Chamber. After the evidence was studied, Her Majesty rendered the verdict as 'accidental discharge by another', and the verdict was inscribed in the Lunarian Annals. So, I am a free woman. By Lunarian law and Serenity's hand!"
"A.. free..?" Michiru stammered.
"You know.. I think I remember Queen Serenity saying something about this." Luna spoke up.
Perfect timing, Swiss-cheese-brained cat!
"But.. if you.. did.. not.. *touch* the instrument.." Haruka joined in the
stammering-contest, "then who did?"
"I believe that the Annals said the last one in the room the device was in
was the Princess of Venus?" A white cat volunteered.
Oops! Busted!
I chuckled. "Sounds like something the Senshi of Venus could do VERY
easily!" I whispered to Amanda Serena. "It may have been her predeccessor,
and not today's Senshi, herself, BUT !!!! Well, let's just say Venus may
have always been known for its Potted Plants!"
Serena snickered. The things we've heard about the Sailorsenshi, by and
large, seemed to be true.
"If it involves mechanical parts and-or electronics..." I smirked, "keep
the Venutians AWAY from it !!!!"
"This just in.." I started talking like a TV-newsman, "The entire Power-grid for the island-nation of Japan has CRASHED !!! Everything from the Kuriles to Iwo Jima has gone black! Satillite-photos show a sudden, brilliant surge of electricity over the islands.. followed by an eerie darkness!"
The Juuraian-royalty, Yuugi, and Ryoko are dying of laughter. Everyone
else starts looking at Minako-chan!
"So far, no one has claimed responsibility."
While the rest of House Masaki-Hakubi is enjoying the *strangeness* of the situation ("Strangeness" being a relative-term.. VERY "relative"), Mihoshi and Kiyone have moved up to the Senshi of Uranus and Neptune.
THIS *could* get interesting!
"That does not matter!" Haruka snapped out. "Hakubi Washuu still built the
weapon! She is STILL responsible for it! And, she is STILL a manace to our
world and MUST be dealt with! Hand her over!"
The Terrible Two advance toward Washuu..
"KIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIYAAAAAAAAH!!!!"
*THUD!*
*THUD!*
"WOOOOOOOOF!!!!"
Uranus and Neptune are now on their knees, wearing Galaxy-Police bootprints in the front of their Sailor-uniforms!
I grin. I bet they never even HEARD that coming, much less saw it!
"Nani?" Neptune asked.
"We are arresting you for breaking Galactic Code #005416375-42A.14A!" Kiyone shouted. "'Kidnapping and False-Arrest!" She then looked at Mihoshi. "I CAN change them with 'Kidnapping', Hai?"
"Hai!" Mihoshi answered. "They would have had to kidnap her to make their
plan work. The 'False-Charges' charge will definitely stick!"
"You can't do this!" Neptune sputtered. "We will not let.. *Grrph*!"
Suddenly the Two Senshi are eating dirt, their faces shoved HARD into
the soil! Mihoshi and Kiyone have a hand around each Senshi's wrists, and a
knee into the small of their backs!
DAMN! These girls play rough!
"Would you like to add 'Resisting Arrest' to the charges?!?!" Mihoshi
screeched!
"Usagi.. ?" Haruka softly whimpered.
"Gomen nisai, Haruka-san!" Usagi answered. "But, what can I do? It IS
Galactic Code you tried to break!" She then muttered low, "Along with my
Grandmother's law."
I chuckle. Usagi-chan will be a fun-relative to know!
"HEY!!!! WHAT just happened here??" Sailorjupiter gaped. "This has my head
spinning! And what TRAIN hit this place?"
Hmmm.. I was going to say she's a bright girl. Now.. I was not so sure!
"I ask AGAIN.. WHAT hit this PLACE?"
Hmmm.. for the sake of Tokyo, someone best *answer* her..
And that's JUST what our itoko did! With mischievious grins on their
faces, Mihoshi, Kiyone, Sasami, Ayeka, Ryoko, Yuugi and Nagi pointed to Serena and me:
"Ask them!"
I tried my DAMNEDEST to stay calm and collected.. REALLY I did!
Unfortunately, Serena and I got ULTRA-defensive and pointed to Haruka and
Michiru:
"THEY STARTED IT !!!!"
Sailorjupiter winced. "What I wanna know is... Who finished it? And don't
yell..", her voice quieted down. "Onegai?"
Both Serena and I looked a bit embarassed towards Sailorejupiter.
"Well.. ahh.." I fumbled for the right words. "*We* kinda.. finished it."
"You.. finished it?" Jupiter's voice got so high it almost disappeared in
a squeak. "How?"
"Well..ahh.." To say I was nervous would have been am unerstatement.
"We..", I started to mumble, "took your powers and through them back at you."
"Nani?" Jupiter asked.
"We tossed your powers back at you."
"NANI????"
"WE SERVED YOU YOUR ASSES BACK TO YOU ON A PLATTER!!!!" Serena screamed.
"ARE YOU *HARD*.. OF.. HEARING????"
"You served our.. Why, you little.." Jupiter seemed to be getting aggrevated, then she struck her battle pose.
Two words: Oh, Shit.
"JUPITER.."
"Mako-chan?" Usagi asked in concern.
"THUNDER.."
"I would not.."
"DRAGON!!!"
"Never mind." Usagi sighed.
You ever have one of those days?
*KA-KRACK! BOOM!*
I don't know what Ser's excuse was.. maybe she likes pain.. but I was just too slow! Anyway, that *damned* Dragon got us both !!!!
"WHAT are you trying to do... lady?" My Imouto growled out after the smoke cleared. "Char-BROIL us????"
"How about putting your dragon on a LEASH, kid?!?!?!" I snapped out.
Were we irritated? Just a little.
We then re-gathered the Dragon and tossed the silly thing *back* to Jupiter!
*KA-KRACK! BOOM!*
Fireworks and lightning go off all-around! It was the BEST show I'd seen!
When the smoke finall cleared, Jupiter was still standing.. singed- but
standing! "Mmmm..", I said, licking my lips, "Blackened Senshi! I wonder if
Emeril has the recipe?"
"COOL TRICK! Hey, Makoto!" Serena squealed with laughter. "Do you do
parties?"
Makoto was in shock.. for a second. "How did you do that? I don't CARE!
You are DEAD!"
"Oh, dear..", Usagi-itoko sighed. "Hotaru-chan? Prepare for triage."
"Jupiter... Oak... EVOLUTION !!!"
Thousands of electric leaves fly around us, slicing us a bit, but, mostly,
scaring us silly! However, we did recover our senses! And, when we were FINALLY able to wade through the stupid leaves.. we were madder than
HELL !!!!
"Shimatte!" My imouto hissed out. "Sailoruranus? Meet Sailoruranus, Junior. A true girl-of-action... VERY little thought!"
I chuckled. "You know something, Jupiter? If you had a brain, you'd be
dangerous!"
