Nova: I know I made a few mess ups last time. It's nothing big, and I'm
gonna fix it this time. So this chapter might be a bit longer than the
others. I know that's not a problem, but just a fore warning.
"talking" 'thinking' ~* POV change *~ ~! Scene change !~ And when I feature what the good Duo is thinking, it'll be like this blah blah blah And when bad Duo is thinking to good Duo, it'll be like this -blah blah blah-
Chapter 5
The presence inside Duo's mind was sifting through all of the information in Duo's brain. -Gundam? That could be useful.-
Yeah, and then my friends will destroy you if you use it wrong. Duo answered. Duo had taken to calling the thing Anubis.
-What? You know who the other Sailor Scouts are?!-
I only know who the Inners are. Duo said.
-It doesn't matter. Where there's one Scout, there's the other Scouts. Usagi Tsukino will be the first to go.- Anubis slipped out of the house and headed towards where Usa was known to hang out. The arcade.
~! The Arcade !~
"Hi Andrew!" Mina and Usa chorused.
"Hey everybody." Andrew greeted them. "Aren't you missing one?"
"Mako wasn't feeling well." Ami answered. The bell chimed as Duo walked in.
"Hey, Duo-kun! Come on, someone got close to beating our top score!" Usa said and drug him over to one of the games. When he didn't say anything, all of the Inners looked at him weird.
"Are you okay, Duo?" Rei asked. After a few seconds, he smiled his usual smile.
"I'm great. Come on, Usa-girl, we gotta raise our score." Anubis shook his head. He was extremely close to blowing his cover. He pulled the plastic gun from its holster and Usa started the game. Soon, they had gotten to some of the higher levels. Anubis was concentrating on the game and Duo took that moment to try and take control again. On the outside, Duo's body was twitching. The gun dropped from his hands as they clutched his head. Ami rushed to his side.
"Duo-chan? What's wrong?" she asked. She went into doctor mode extreme.
~* Inside Duo's Head *~
-You little brat! Stop this immediately!- Anubis screamed.
No! I won't let you hurt my friends. Duo screamed back.
-You won't win, pathetic human. Stop trying.-
Never underestimate your opponent. Especially if your opponent is a Gundam Pilot.
-I'm tired of seeing you try.- Anubis' image in Duo's mind smirked and easily regained control.
~* Out in the Arcade *~
Ami had put a wet cloth over his head. She saw him smirk and open his eyes. For a moment, a sneer of disgust flickered over his face, replaced with his smile. She dismissed it as nothing. "You should go back to Quatre's. I think you need a good long rest." Ami said, gently moving his bangs away from his face.
"Yeah, sounds like a plan." Duo answered. Anubis was almost overwhelmed again by Duo's rush of emotions. Duo wanted Ami to run away and stay close and never leave at the same time. -I've just changed my mind. This Ami will be the first to die.-
~* Hotaru's POV *~
I had seen all that the others had seen, but I felt something they obviously didn't. It's no surprise. I barely felt it. It was just a flicker of negative energy when Duo had stopped writhing. I closed my eyes and concentrated. In my mind's eye, I could see the aura surrounding Duo. Normally it was a vibrant blue. Now it was laced with black. 'I'll have to keep a close eye on him.' I thought to myself. Ami helped Duo to his feet.
"I'll walk back with you." She said.
~* Everyone's POV *~ ~! Outside the Arcade !~
Ami and Duo were walking back to Quatre's mansion. She was really worried about him. He was being so quiet. "What's wrong? Did a mission go wrong or something?" she quietly asked.
"No, it's nothing like that. I guess the thing with Heero just really scared me." Duo answered. He was waiting for his chance to command his youma to strike. The thing was following them, waiting for its master's signal.
"Heero's come close to dying before. Well, this time he actually died. I suppose that makes the difference?" He just nodded. The youma leapt from the brush straight at Ami. For one brief moment, the real Duo gained control and shoved Ami out of the way. The youma slashed into him, ripping long gashes in his skin, before turning to Ami. The youma had been ordered to make things as realistic as possible and to kill Ami at all costs.
"Mercury Crystal Power!" In a brilliant flash of blue light and a blast of freezing air, Sailor Mercury appeared. "Shine Aqua Illusion!" The youma froze in place, but the ice was already starting to break. "Scouts, I need your help!" she yelled into her communicator. The youma broke free and slashed deep gashes in her arm. She screamed and grabbed her arm. Gritting her teeth, she attacked again. "Mercury Bubbles Blast!" A dense fog settled over the area. She sat as still as she could in the midst of the fog, stalling until the other Scouts got there. Luckily, she didn't have to wait long.
"Mars Flame Sniper!" An arrow of fire shot for the youma's chest. It dodged the attack as best it could, but the arrow buried itself deep in its arm before exploding into a million bits of fire.
"Uranus World Shaking!"
"Neptune Deep Submerge!" The attacks came at the youma from both sides. It jumped straight up.
"Saturn Silence Glaive Surprise!" The jump had bee anticipated and Saturn had sent her attack higher to catch it. As the youma writhed from the attack, Venus stepped in.
"Venus Love Chain Encircle!" The chain wrapped around the youma and pulled it down into the ground. "Now Sailor Moon!"
"Moon Gorgeous Meditation!" In a swirl of rainbow energy, the youma disappeared. Mercury was still clutching her arm in pain. Saturn quickly made herself useful and went to work healing her. The Inners looked over to Duo. They had to be careful about how much they let him say. The Outers would be furious if they found out he knew who they really were.
~* Roxi's POV *~
I watched the Scouts destroy the youma. I would have stepped in if I thought they were in trouble. Yes, they were strong, but not strong enough to defeat Anubis. The trickster had entered someone's body. I couldn't track him anymore. The worst part is, I had no idea who he could possibly have entered. I'd have o wait for him to make his move. I closed my eyes and thought to my sister, Destiny, Is there anything you can tell me that mother wouldn't have a fit about?
Sorry, sis. You know if I told you anything, mom would go berserk.
I know. But if any of them are going to die, you had better tell me when and why.
I will. I will. Sheesh. It's like you're in charge of their well being or something.
Ah, but I am. Remember?
