I do not own Sailor Moon. CastellaStar owns any characters that Naoko
Takeuchi doesn't.
Chapter 14
Aya and Yue stood together in the darkness. Aya clutched her cloak closely to herself, staring ahead at what was in front of them. A sneer had plastered itself on Yue's face as she stood there, slightly in front of her sister. Her green eyes glared at the two figures that were standing and laughing in front of them.
"What is it this time?" snarled Yue. "It seems that wherever we go, you follow."
"You still deny it," came the all-familiar voice of Alsura. "Amusing, really. You're like the cat who won't face his reflection in the water. Tee- hee."
"Deny? Deny what exactly?" demanded Yue. "We have nothing to deny. You are shrouded by the darkness, fools. It is time that we finish this once and for all."
"Finish?" snickered Vona. "Finished? We are never finished? Ever. Even Sailor Moon, or should I say Neo-Queen Serenity, has never been able to get rid of us. Not completely, anyways."
"Besides," sighed Alsura, looking up at the sky, "The designated time has not arrived. The final battle will happen soon.but not yet."
"Designated time?" whispered Aya, looking worriedly from Alsura to Vona and back again. Fear showed clearly in her eyes, for she knew what they were speaking of. "It won't...it can't happen..not again."
"Ooooh.are you scared?" asked Vona, her voice smooth and comforting.
Aya looked up at Vona, her eyes widening, and tears formed in them. She hid behind Yue slightly, and closed her eyes tightly, bending her head away from them. "No! I am not afraid!" she cried. "I will NOT be afraid!" She looked back up at Alsura and Vona, an angry light in her eyes. She grabbed her right earring, and threw off her cloak. "Pulsar Spark..MAKEUP!!!" she cried.
Blue, pink, and black ribbons of sparkling light wrapped themselves around Aya. They fitted to her body in the same way as the original sailor fuku. Yue followed suit, yelling, "Nova Spark..MAKEUP!!!" Green, pink, and black ribbons wrapped themselves around Yue in a similar transformation to Aya's. When they had finished transforming, they stood there in an altered version of the sailor fuku. Instead of the normal white one-piece body, there's was separated into a black two-piece body. The collars were both dark pink, and their ankle-length boots were black. Their skirts were both double-layered, the top part black with a star print on it. The only difference between their outfit was the colors of the bows and second layer of the skirt: Aya's was blue and Yue's green.
"You still haven't figured it out yet, have you?" snarled Vona, not amused. "You can do nothing to us, even in that form..unless, of course.."
Yue's mouth tightened slightly, and her eyes seemed to go out of focus. She seemed to be thinking extremely hard about something.trying to decide something. She clenched her hands tightly, glancing sideways at Aya, who's face hid nothing.
The darkness around them seemed to grow heavier and heavier with each passing moment. A distant rumble erupted from the sky, announcing the oncoming thunderstorm. Aya looked up at the star-studded sky, upon hearing the thunder. Her eyebrows rose slightly, and an expression of confusion contorted her features. Yue's eyes followed Aya's gaze to the sky, and confusion appeared on even her face.
"Strange." murmured Yue. "Thunder.but no clouds?"
A voice echoed out of the darkness. "Jupiter.Rolling.THUNDER!!!"
The sky gave off a deafening peal of thunder, followed soon by pillars of lightning that came crashing amidst the four who were facing off. Clouds of dust filled the sky, blinding anyone who was around. Screams of pain and anger filled the air, but were drowned out by the crashes of thunder. When the thunder died, there was complete silence, except for a slight wind that rustled among the trees.
"Hey, that was pretty good, Makoto-chan!" giggled a voice.
"Stop it, Minako, you're embarrassing me!" followed the voice of Makoto.
There were a few choked coughs, before another voice spoke up. "You know that you shouldn't use your attacks like that!!!" came the upset voice of Ami. "What if somebody else had been around? And besides..you are acting like children!"
"Oh, come off it, Ami! Nobody else was around! Everyone's in the shelters remember?" laughed Makoto.
"Well, you never know!" exclaimed Ami.
"Alright, alright," came the irritated voice of Rei. "Let's not have anymore delays, okay? We need to get down to the shelters and make sure everyone's okay."
"Right, right, right," muttered Minako. "Always work. No play."
The four figures of the inner senshi materialized from the darkness. There figures were easily seen, because of the glowing aura that surrounded each of them. It might as well have been day with how clearly they could be seen, now that they were out of the trees. A moan emitted from the area that Sailor Jupiter had struck with her attack.
"Whoa, stop!" shouted Ami. "Did you hear that?"
They stopped, listening for what Sailor Mercury had heard. The dust had begun to settle, and as it cleared, two shadowy figures could be seen lying on the ground. Makoto looked as though she would pass out from shock.
"Oh..my..gosh.." she muttered. Running over to the two figures, she knelt down next to one of them, who lay in a tattered and blackened cloak. "I don't believe it," she yelled angrily. "Of all places, and all times!!!"
Ami ran over to the other figure, soon followed by Rei and Minako. She lifted the figure up by the shoulders gently, and shook her slightly. "Hey!" she called out. "Hey! Are you alright?!"
The figure moaned slightly, and tried to sit up. As she did this, the hood of her cloak fell back to reveal the face of Aya. Her face was blackened slightly, and her hair was singed. She looked up at Ami weakly, and smiled slightly.
"Thank you," she said, before she fell back, unconscious.
"Come on!" yelled Rei. "We need to get them back to the castle quick!"
"But what about the people in the shelters?" asked Minako.
"You and Makoto take care of these two girls.get them back to the castle and get them some help as quick as possible," replied Ami. "Rei and I will take care of checking on the citizens."
"Right!" acknowledged Minako, with a quick nod of her head. Kneeling down, she pulled one of Aya's arms around her shoulders, and lifted her up, struggling slightly.
Makoto waited for her, the other girl, Yue, lying limply in her arms. Her face was filled with worry and anger at the same time, but she nodded at Ami and Rei as they waved and left. Then, without waiting for Minako, she stormed back towards the castle. Minako hurried after her as quickly as possible, trying to keep Aya's feet from dragging as much as possible.
When the sailor scouts had disappeared in opposite directions, two figures appeared out of nowhere. It was Vona and Alsura, both covered in burn marks. Vona leaned back against one of the trees, and Alsura knelt, slumped over, on the ground.
"Those cursed sailor scouts!" growled Vona. "Curse them! They will not get away with this!"
Alsura lifted herself up slightly, turning to Vona. "These bodies will support us still.it was lucky that we did not get the full blast of that attack!" she moaned.
"How did they get so powerful?" muttered Vona.
"I.don't know," sighed Alsura. "There isn't any way they could have leveled up like that without help."
"Of course," spat Vona suddenly. "I should have known. Those two sailor senshi that annoyed us so. Perhaps they are smarter than we thought, after all."
Alsura looked up at Vona. "You mean those two with the wings? I thought we ditched them a long time ago."
"It certainly doesn't seem that way now, does it? I suppose they managed to get out of the blast's way in time."
Alsura did not reply. She was out cold, lying on the ground. Vona slowly knelt down and carefully lifted Alsura up. Her eyes were cold as ice, full of anger and pain. "This time, no more fooling around. It's time to get serious.and I will not underestimate them again," she growled. Then, with that, she disappeared with Alsura, leaving the darkness to rest in peace.
