Chapter 6: A Destiny to Die for

Eternal Sailor Moon didn't feel like flying from what she just said to Joey so she wanted to walk so the scouts also accompanied her to walk to the stadium.

Mercury looked at her the clock tower from far away. "Serena, if we continue walking now, the thing might take off with out us!"

Eternal didn't answer. Suddenly, there came a jeep driving down the street beeping its horn.

The scouts looked and Moon's wonderment look turned into a happy smile. "Hey you guys!! "

The jeep stopped and behind the wheel was none other than....Marik?! Ishizu was in the passenger seat as Odion was at the back.

Eternal felt her sadness disappearing and being replaced by a whole bowl of happiness. "What are you guys doing here?"

Marik wasn't smiling. Neither was Odion nor Ishizu. They were all...looking down sadly.

The leader turned around all the way..."Marik? Ishizu? Odion? What's up?" She asked.

Marik looked at her. "Get in, Serena. We have something very important to tell you that you must hear. "

Eternal, as still puzzled as she was, turned to the scouts and told them, "I'll meet you guys at the stadium."

Ishizu sat in the back and Eternal came into the passenger seat. The jeep drove away with out anyone saying a word.

As Marik was driving neither the two Ishtar sibling or Odion were smiling like they always did when they first met Serena. They all looked like somebody died.

"Why are you guys so down? You said you needed to talk to me? Well talk!"

Marik was still staring out to the road. " You still have your Egyptian god card? "

She nodded.

"Ishizu?"

Ishizu wiped a tear away. "My necklace...it has foreseen your destiny and the outcome of the tournament, Serena..."

"Oh cool! Do we win or what? Does Chaos get destroyed?"

Ishizu shook her head no. "The world will be saved and Chaos will be destroyed if...if you die."

Eternal's eyes widened in fear, "What?"

In the big empty stadium, stood Kaiba, Roland, Mokuba and a really bored Super Sailor Venus. But not did they know was that Chaos Ultemicia has achieved her duel disk and took the name " Tilla" so no one would know who she really was. She was also suppressing her energy so Venus wouldn't have a clue who she was.

Venus yawned as she saw Tisha enter the stadium. "Hey, finalist approaching."

The boys looked as Tisha smiled her way in.

Oh my goodness! Do I happen to be the first one?" came her British accent.

Venus walked up to her. "Yup! That's right! Locator cards verification and you'll be set!"

Tisha smiled and held up her locator cards with out a fuss.

Venus looked at Seto to see if she can come aboard and he nodded.

"Just wait here for everyone else to arrive. We shortened it down to 6 finalists...private reasons," she looked at Kaiba once more who was looking around the stadium. "It's so there that he's heard the Egyptian god cards are back and wants them so much. Too bad he won't suspect Joey for having one of them, " she thought to herself.

Mokuba looked and saw the other scouts come in. "Hey! It's the other scouts!"

Moon waved. "Hey! Has Eternal Sailor Moon came here yet?"

Venus laid her head on her index finger and acted all ditzy, " IF she was here why isn't she standing next to me?"

Moon scratched her head, " oh!"

Mars turned as told them, "Here comes the others. Who would've guessed Eternal wouldn't be with them?" she turned to Jupiter and Moon. "Where is she anyway? You haven't told me and Mercury. "

Moon leaned in and whispered, " She's taking a drive with Marik, Ishizu and Odion. They had to talk to her because it was way important. "

"Oh!"

Mercury and Venus both leaned in.

"And don't mention Eternal to Joey. They had a major argument awhile back."

"About what?" Venus asked.

"He found out our identities"

Mars, Mercury, and Venus's faces went red as Jupiter and Moon sank down to their feet.

Venus shook her head and greeted the gang. "Locator cards, people!"

Yugi held his up. "You're doing a great job, Sailor Venus!"

Venus's ego came up with thinking she's all that doing what she does best. "Aw, stop! " she joked.

Roland handed them their tournament identification cards as Serenity asked," Have you scouts seen Eternal?"

Joey acted like he didn't hear that.

"They should be on their way..." Moon tilted her head.

Venus then asked Mokuba, "Aren't you going to tell them about the short- listing of finalists?"

"huh?" Joey was back to himself again. "What short-listed of finalists?"

Mokuba looked up at them, "For private reasons, the tournament only has 6 finalists instead of 8. "

Joey's arrogantness took in affect now. "Oh I see! Ya wanna take your bet wit one of us so you could get one of da Egyptian god cards, huh? Well I happen to have one-"

That could Seto's attention.

"And you won't be able to beat me wit' it!"

Seto was surprised. How could a mediocre duelist like him get a very rare card that one of the Egyptian God cards?! "So it is true!"

"Dat's right! And I'm gunna beat you wit' mine!"

Tea looked. "Hey! Here comes Eternal!...and Marik, Ishizu and Odion!"

Everyone else looked.

Eternal was walking between Marik and Odion as Ishizu told her, " Remember, you aren't to speak a word to anyone about your resolution."

The younger girl nodded.

Joey had concern in his eyes. Serena had looked like she's been crying. But he thought it was from their argument but little does he know that...Eternal has agreed to sacrifice for the place she's learned to love since the beginning of her life. The last night he'll see her, the last time everyone else will see her is tonight! The Battle City Tournament will be Serena Tskino's last night alive!
