The Last Victory
Disclaimer: I don't own any of the Sailor moon people, but Sophia, Annie, Christine, and all of the Epox.
Chapter 5
" We have to find her!" Sophia said, half-crazed with lack of sleep.
They had all been up for 3 days straight, looking for anything that could lead them to Annie.
" We can't do this alone. We need Sailor Moon." Christine said, pushing her long brown ponytail over her shoulder.
" I'm right here and Mercury's picking up major icky waves on her computer. You should all suit up and follow me." Sailor Moon stood in the doorway.
" Defenitely on that!" Christine said hapily.
Even if it wasn't Annie, it might be a icky nasty youma and she wanted to get some of this energy off her back.
" Sailor Deimos Planet Power!"
" Sailor Charon Plane Power!"
Sophia turned into a living tornado of silver while Christine burst into black flame. Both of their outfits were like Super Sailor Moon's, but the bows, skirts, neckflap, and tiara stones were all the same color. The only thing the same was their hair, and they shone with a power not far unlike the Sailor Scouts'.
" Let's go!" Deimos said, and followed Sailor Moon out the door with Mars and Charon close behind.
" This way, over by the rose park!." Mercury shouted, moving along the raod with the rest of them.
Pluto, Saturn, Neptune and Uranus went to the left while the Inner Scouts went right. Charon and Deimos plowed head on, wanting to meet Annie first. Everything was quiet, eve nore so seemeing because nothing was moving in the slight breeze.
BOOM!
A fireball hit the roses next to them and made Charon jump back from the heat.
" It's okay, I meant to miss you." Came the silky soft voice of Sailor Nevermore.
She rose above them, grey skirt flapping in the violent winds she was creating with her large grey wings. Her flaming sword gave off desolate light, giving eerie depth to her black eyes.
" Annie!" Deimos pleaded with her freind. " Don't do this!"
" Don't do what? Don't hate you for leaving me? Don't kill you for reminding me why I can't live my own life?" Nevermore pouted sulkily and waved her sword around like she was bored with them already. " Well, I might not kill you, but your little freinds are a big nuisance."
She landed on the ground and they saw just how changed she had become since the Epox had rooted even deeper.
She now had black tattoos all over her body, like tribal designs, but with a truly evil twist to them. Large wings of slate grey loomed above her, and when Nevermore smiled again, they saw the small poitned fangs.
" Annie, you've changed! Even without the amulet, the Epox is still inside you!" Charon said, raising her own brightly flaming silver sword, combating the gloom around them all.
" Well, no duh!" A glimpse of the old Annie showed through, but was swallowed and gone.
" I tried to get you to love me, but all the times you argued, and ignored, and pushed me away, the Epox grew a little more in me. Soon I will be powerfull enough to become the Epox and kill you all!" Nevermore raised her sword and started walking towards the two.
But all of a sudden, she stopped, clawed hands clutching at her head as if she had a headache.
" Get out of my head bitch!" She screamed, throwing a tiny dart into the bushes.
A shout of pain rose from the bushes and Nevermore cackled and flew away into the dark night.
" Damn, I lsot her." Rei said, limping out the of bushes with the dart sticking out of her sholder.
" Gah! It's Epox poison! Rei, if we don't get Annie to heal you, then your gonna die." Sophia pulled out the dart and threw it away.
" Well at least I know I'll never have to face graduation day." Rei smiled and fainted.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Rei withstood the poison well. Usually it would have taken her by now, but she was storng of body and mind. A few days after Sailor Nevermore's attack, some very unexpected help arrived.
Hotaru ran to get it while Sophia helped Rei spoon soup into her mouth. Setsuna had insisted on having at least one Outer Scout to stay with Rei and this week it was Hotaru. She came running back, leading a tall boy with shrot brown hair dressed in baggy jeans and a skater hoodie.
" Sophia, Christine, I presume." He asked, voice full of chagrin and a hint of amusement.
" No, the freaking boogeyman." Christine snapped.
" I'm Jamie." He held out his hand to show that he was peaceful, for now at least. " I'm here to help you find Annie and possibly change her back."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
After that, Christine, being herself, ahd her doubts.
" Why do you want to help us? I mean, you are one of the Epox's major agents aren't you? Don't you want to kill us and help Annie?" She said, sitting cross legged on the eating table and spearing Jamie with a sharp glare.
" Right now the Epox has to survive Annie. It's gone and relinquished its claim on all the others so it can focus purely on Annie. If we can get her, there is a chance we can clear out this evil altogether." Sophia jumped on this little bit of info.
" But that would mean destroying Annie, or Sailor Nevermore. I don't want to lose either of them." She said sadly.
" We should get her in her Sailor Nevermore form, I'm not so sure you want to keep this recent one. But if we don't get her soon, the Epox will take over Annie and Rei, and then use Rei to take over the rest of the Sailor Scouts. I think that was Annie's inital plan." He looked sad, but grinned when Christine threw a brush at him.
" How would you know?" She asked, frowning.
" Well, we used to use telepath's to do that all the time until they became more and more attracted to helping the goodies." Jamie said, slurping down a bowl of noodles.
" How did the Epox come into creation?" Hotaru asked all of a sudden.
They all looked at her and Jamie set down the bowl and thought for a minute.
" Well, the Epox is not an old power, which makes it all the more hard to resist. Some telepath was playing around with peoples minds and got sucked into an E druggies mind. He went crazy and got the addiction itself and then he started getting people attatched to the mental feeling of it. That's why it's called the Epox. I'm just glad I'm out of it." He said, rubbing his forehead as if it hurt his head to think about it again.
" I'm glad too." Sophia said, hushed and quiet.
