A.N: Hi! Finally updated my chapter, sorry for the wait. I don't like
writing author notes so don't expect to see too many of these in my future
chapters. I have been writing this story for three weeks now and I got to
the 7th chapter when I finally realized I don't have I disclaimer. So to
prevent anyone form suing me I don't own Sailor Moon. Thanks for all the
review guys! I really appreciate it. In fact, 17 is the most reviews that I
ever got. But keep on submitting more, I think that I am making my friends
jealous. HE! HE! Anyway, now on with the story. Please excuse any of my
typos or misspelled words. I am also deeply sorry if some of my sentences
don't make sense.

1 The La Morte
"All is in order Serena" reported Mina with a stern voice, "we are ready to proceed."
"Excellent" I replied maliciously, "and how about you Rei?"
"Everything is fine here too Serena" reported Rei with assurance "the guys are monitoring our movements back at base and should be able to tell if we have triggered an alarm, although after such careful inspection of this place, I highly doubt it." Rei smirked. Her idea of wearing small cameras with our tight black leather uniform is simply brilliant. Now the guys back at the base and the headquarters are able to see what we are doing and can direct us better and inform us where of any intrusion right away. I really like this idea!
I am standing outside the pentagon with the darkness of the night covering me and my companions from the sight of any human eye, but the security alarms is another story. I have brought two companions with me, Rei and Mina. My two most trusted lieutenants and my best members in the La Morte family. They are the only two whom I chose to bring in this mission since they are the only two that will be able to keep up with me, brining anybody else would have just gotten in my way. We make an excellent team since we can sense each other's moves easily and will know how to respond to them immediately. I am deeply satisfied with my decision as I am standing right in front of the pentagon and reflecting our plan in my head for the very last time.
The past few days since I arrived here in Washington DC has all became a blur to me. I remember distinctly that I had gotten out of my private jet three days ago and driven to the base by a limo that I felt was not necessary since it attracted too much attention. After that, I only remember sitting in one of the small and cozy rooms of the base and discussing the plan with Rei and Mina, and occasionally other members of my inner circle, over and over again until all could memorize and repeat it in their sleep. In fact, I think that it is all we did for the past three days. But now, our hard work will finally be paid off. Tonight is the night that we will finally set that plan that had robbed everyone of their rest into action. Yes, tonight will determine whether the La Morte name will rise in status greatly or plunge deeply into the ground. Everything will be determined by tonight.
"Are we ready to go in?" asked Mina with a shaky voice. I can tell that she was both nervous and excited because I felt the very same way, maybe even stronger than she did. However, I was more careful about hiding these feeling and keeping a calm and relaxed state. I was their leader and I would not let these emotions cloud my mind.
"Yes we are" I answered, "OK girls, we're going in. Make sure that you follow me exactly and signal me immediately if you sense anything wrong. I trust that you two still remember the plan exactly?"
"To the very last detail!" they responded together in monotone.
"Excellent" I replied then in a more softer tone "I want you two to know that no matter what happens in there tonight, I will be proud of you. Even if we don't get the chip, we have already accomplished a lot. The most important thing tonight is not the chip, but you walking out of there alive, after all, we might be coming face to face with the La Femmes. Don't forget we are in direct competition with them over the chip. But you two are way more important to me than a bag full of money. Yes, our number one priority tonight is to get the chip, but as soon as your life is at stake, I want you to get the fuck out of there immediately! Even drop the chip if you have to! Is that understood?" My tone had gone from soft to so hard that I was starting to yell. Both Rei and Mina looked at me in bewilderment. They were not use to me showing so much emotion, but I had to, for their sake. They looked at me with shock and slowly nodded, scared to speak, as if a single utter will provoke my burning temper. I nodded and smiled all of a sudden. I was done with my pep talk.
"Good" I replied in my usual cold voice "Right now it is 11:45PM. Our mission officially begins right now. We should enter the building at 12AM as planned. This gives us fifteen minutes to enter through the back window. We may proceed now!" They calmed down and smiled. We all nodded and quickly ran to the back of the pentagon, where we would make our entry into the safely guarded building. Determination was blazing in our eyes.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ *~*
Diamond La Femme checked everything one last time before going in to the pentagon. He was going on this mission solo. Anybody who dared oppose to this suffered greatly, but no one dared. He had a wire hooked to his right ear that connected him to his base. This wire was his only communication on this mission. His top members were on the other line, monitoring him through this wire and will inform him immediately if anything was wrong. They had everything prepared. They had every security system of the pentagon downloaded on their mainframe. They could hack into the pentagon security easily.
Diamond doubted that the La Mortes had this kind of back up. It was simply not possible for them to get it. The pentagon had the top secret security systems in the world and the only reason he got it is because one of his top members were working in the pentagon as a lieutenant and are playing spy for the La Femmes. Diamond grinned. He had spies almost everywhere, even in the La Morte inner circle. But that little spy had not been doing so well lately and Diamond was seriously considering eliminating him. But first, he had to find out where the La Morte leader was hiding. It will simply proof to difficult for him to plan a new spy there since the test of loyalty was virtually impossible to pass. The only reason that he even got lucky enough to get this spy is because he had persuaded for him to switch sides with a very handsome amount of money. Diamond will simply have to cope with the failures of this pathetic man until he finds another way to get close to the La Morte leader.
The La Morte leader. Meeting this mysterious person was all that Diamond had in mind for tonight. He did not care too much about the mission or the chip. Meeting and killing her was all that he hoped to get out of tonight and all that he was determined to do. The chip was just bait that will lure her here tonight. The chip and the handsome amount of money did not matter. The La Morte leader's death tonight was all that mattered. It was his number one priority.
'At last I will finally claim the life of my long rival' thought Diamond maliciously 'tonight is when the La Mortes will be no more.' This was his last thought as he began to make his way swiftly toward the front of the pentagon where he would enter.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ *~*
We entered the safely guarded building through one of its high back windows. We had to climb at least three stories before we were even anywhere close to reaching one that would allow us entry. After our vertical walking had finally come to an end as we reached a window that contained one of the lesser securities, Mina had managed to slice the window glass to produce a hole just big enough to allow all three of us entry.
We had landed perfectly inside the pentagon without making even the slightest steer in the room. As Mina quietly put the glass down, I quickly spotted the exit to this room and began to lead the way while Mina and Rei followed behind me. We walked swiftly in the night with the shadows covering us like a blanket of protection. We carefully avoided any cameras and other security links that might lead to our discovery right away. We did not care if we left traces of evidence behind, why would we? We had nothing to regret later on since we were already on the FBI's top wanted list, not to mention the new problems we are having with the CIA's. I could not care less if they found out later that it was the La Morte gang's doing just as long as they did not discover my personal identity as Usagi Tsukino. Besides that, I had nothing to fear except the immediate discover of our intrusion before we even got to the security room that contained the chip.
"Serena" whispered Rei in a barely audible voice, "we have three cameras crossing paths on the only route that can not be avoided. Lasers are also running across the path and we can not overstep them." I smiled. Rei smiled with me. She had whispered this information as a report rather than in a worried tone. We all knew what to do. In fact, this seemed rather suspiciously easy for us.
"Would you like to take care of this one Rei?" I asked with amusement. She nodded with a malicious grin as me and Mina stepped back to watch with amusement.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ *~*
Diamond entered the pentagonal building through the front door like any other normal employee. Inside the main hall, a highly trained security guard quickly came to him and asked to see his ID card. Diamond smiled politely.
"My pleasure" Diamond answered brightly as he put his right hand inside his brown leather jacket's inner pocket. He slowly pulled out something that looked like metal. The security guard was confused and looked at him with a puzzled look. Diamond quickly glanced over to the front desk to make sure that nobody else was on shift with this dimwitted guard as he pulled the trigger. The gun went off with a loud "boom" as it was still inside his leather jacket. But that did not matter because the security guard was dead immediately and dropped to the floor on its back in 2 seconds flat. He was shot square in the head by Diamonds amazingly good aim, even though the gun was still in his jacket. The bullet that sped to end the guard's life had made a small black hole in Diamond's perfect leather jacket.
Diamond looked at the pathetic security guard lying there with his eyes largely open in clear shock. His mouth was hanging ajar as if he was going to scream out but did not have enough time for his lungs to fill up the oxygen needed to perform this action. He was too slow and too dimwitted. Diamond looked at him with disgust and shook his head.
"The least the government could do is to put guards worthy of the position. But I guess this stupidity plays to my advantage" Diamond voiced his thought aloud as he stepped over the security guard and walked on into the building as if nothing out the ordinary had just occurred. It will take a while for anybody to discover this death since it was so late at night, or accurately, so early in the morning at 12AM. Diamond did not doubt that he would make it out before anyone even came close to discovering this corpse.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ *~*
We are now standing outside the door of the security room. The most highly guarded room in the building, which is impossible to enter without being discovered. This room had everything to protect it from intrusion. It's security system ranged from laser wires to infrared heat detectors that can detect the presence of a person through their body temperature. This could definitely prove to be our most difficult challenge yet. Good! We were starting to get bored with all the pathetic security of this building that certainly needs updating and we could really use a challenge about now.
We had gotten here without a single slip up. Our first real optical was to get pass a narrow hall that had three cameras, which can not be avoided, crossing its path and not to mention laser wires across the entire way. But, with our high training back in the La Morte headquarters, we were able to pass it without any delay. Actually, we let Rei do all the work and me and Mina just sat back and watched with amusement as Rei crawled through every single laser and avoided every single camera that would be thought impossible to avoid by any other person. We took pride in watching as one of our top members passed through this as if it was nothing than a optical set up to amuse pre-school children. Then came the four guards that were marching through the large circular hallway in the middle of the pentagon. We needed to pass that hallway to get to the security room since it connected with every single passage in the pentagon. But that did not prove too much of a challenge either as Mina quickly went to the right side of the circular hall to swiftly knock downs two guards without even making a sound and me and Rei did the same in the left side of the hall. Poor guards. They did not even know that it was coming to them as they made preparations to turn and cross paths with each other again. I guess when you are marching in a big dark hall all nigh long, the boredom and the tiredness seems to catch up with you and dull all your other senses. But at least they are only going to be out cold for about 5-6 hours. We would be long gone by then.
"We're ready" reported Mina as her and Rei had everything suited up from night vision goggles, just incase it's going to be pitch black inside the security room, to heat desensitizing device, to keep our body temperature low and from being discovered by the infrared heat detectors. I nodded in approval and looked down to make sure that I had the same equipment suited up.
"The others back in base are ready also. They will be able to assist us the minute we need it" reported Rei with confidence. I smiled and nodded. We were ready to go in.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ *~*
Diamond was undisturbed by all the cameras spying on him as he walked on into the darkness of the narrow hallways. He did not care because he was sure that the cameras were all fried and caused no real threat to his immediate discovery. He was sure that his headquarters had hacked into the pentagon security system to fry the circuits of all the cameras and anything else that may stand in his way of reaching the security room. In a way, he had helped the La Mortes to get in.
The security room. The only room in the pentagon in which the security system was unhackable by the La Femme computer mainframe. Diamond was impressed by the person who designed this kind of security and hoped to bring that person over to his side someday.
Diamond made an abrupt left turn as directed by his person that was speaking to him through the wire he was wearing and found himself in a circular hall with four guards lying very still on the floor, out cold, no doubt. Diamond was certain that this was the work of the La Mortes, or better yet, the La Morte leader herself. He was beginning to shake with anticipation, as he could not wait to finally meet her and eliminate her from his problems forever.
"Take the second passage to the right boss" came a voice through the wire. Diamond obeyed without a doubt because there will be hell to pay by the person who directed him wrong. He quickly took the dark passage and walked on a little before abruptly making a sharp right turn. Now he was directly facing the door of the security room. It was hanging slightly ajar. He had no doubt that the La Mortes are the ones who had amazingly broken into the room without making a sound and left the door open for a quick exit. However, Diamond was not surprised to see his rival gang do this so easily since he himself would have probably done it just as easily.
Diamonds breath was caught in his lungs as he suddenly realized that the mysterious La Morte leader herself was in that very same room. The one person that he had set off with determination to kill was just right trough that door. Diamond had planned for this to happen for quite a while but when this incident was actually happening, he could not help but feel a little nervous. It was highly unusual for him to feel this tense in any situation. He was usually very relaxed during crisis times. Diamond took a deep breath and calmed down. He walked towards the door and rested his right had on the knob before he began to turn it very slowly.
'At last I will put my mind to rest and kill my only threat of rivalry' thought Diamond wickedly as he abruptly turned the knob all the way. He barged into the dim lighted room without even bothering to activate any of his devices that will shield him from the room's dangerous security, he was way too excited to even remember that.
What he saw in the room simply mesmerized him. He saw something that will be embedded in his mind forever and will haunt him for the rest of his life if he did not have it. He saw her. She was standing between a raven- haired woman and a blonde haired woman that Diamond thought was to be beautiful. But right now everything has changed. Now that he had seen her, no other woman will ever compare to her in his mind. She was like an angel, no, like a goddess that every man wants but can not get. Diamond had never seen her before, but he had a clear idea on who she was.
She was Serena La Morte. His sworn rival.
