(Before I start this chapter, I would like to apologize. I realize it has
been two weeks since my spring break since I got something out and I'm
sorry. When I got back my teachers had no mercy in assigning more work. It
has been especially treacherous since AP tests are this week, which only
means one thing for the rest of the year. After this week things in regards
to homework should be MAJORLY slowing down. ^_^ Anyway, along with homework
and a momentary loss in interest of writing kind of held me back from
"inspiration". But I feel like writing again, yay. Cya! )
~*~*~
Sailor Moon landed on Tatsuo with a thud, her force causing the ground beneath to cave in slightly. "YOU!" She hollered at the top of her lungs, not even paying attention to everyone else. They weren't her main concern at the moment. The imposter was the only thing she could think of.
Tatsuo was unable to truly prepare himself for impact, as Sailor Moon was falling too fast to allow him to try anything. But he didn't mind. She would be overthrown with ease. And with the use of his powers he would be able to convince Goku and the others that he was in fact the true Sailor Moon. Narrowing his eyes, he did the only thing he could which was to brace himself.
Sailor Moon smashed the heels of her feet into her counterpart's face, causing him to fall back into the ground with a loud thud.
~*~*~
The Sailor Senshi were on their way to Tatsuo's Sailor Moon when they felt the collision of the Sailor Moons. All four stopped in both confusion and fear. No words were exchanged, but they weren't needed. They all knew what was going down. The real Sailor Moon was fighting the imposter, obviously the same guy who had disguised himself as Usagi the day before. She would be all alone, technically. Although there were other fighters around her, none would know who the real Sailor Moon was, which could pose a major problem for their friend.
Sailor Venus, taking charge as leader, turned to her fellow Senshi, more in fear now than ever now that the realization had finally taken place. "Come on girls! Usagi needs us!"
Jupiter nodded with an honorable frown. "Let's go!"
The four knew their duty. They would protect Usagi, and it wasn't because she was the Princess of the Moon. They knew much deeper duty, and that was one of friendship. They wouldn't let her down. All four increased their powers to the max and headed toward the fight.
~*~*~
Those who were around turned almost immediately upon hearing the sounds of their comrade being attacked. All were ready to launch attacks of their own to help the girl, but stopped suddenly. No words were exchanged, but all knew something was terribly wrong, for here there were two of what appeared to be the same girl fighting each other.
Tatsuo was continually punched into the ground by Sailor Moon without mercy, none of which he felt. But just to appear to be in distress, he cried out for help. Everything was going according to plan now. Sailor Moon had fallen into his trap. Once he made the others see that he was the real Sailor Moon, Usagi would be put out of commission for good, and he would now be the holder of the broach.
Tatsuo failed to fight back against the raging Senshi. "Help! Somebody, help!" He cried out. No one made a move. Instead, they just stood around and gawked in awe. None could comprehend the actions being played out before their eyes.
Gohan, with his mouth hanging open, looked up to his father for answers, who had always seemed to have them in the past. But now, his father seemed to be just as confused as the rest of the guys.
Goku scratched his head in frustration. In all his encounters in the past he had never once seen anything like this. He wanted to help, but not the wrong one, and not being able to feel their power levels really hindered his effort to see who was true and who wasn't. Had he been able to feel their individual powers all of this would have been so much easier, but then again, it wouldn't be nearly as fun now would it? "Well.?"
Vejita crossed his arms and frowned. He wasn't up for these shenanigans. He wouldn't tolerate it from his kids and he sure as hell wouldn't tolerate it from these brats. "Blast them both!"
Trunks groaned as he glared down to his father. "We can't just "blast" them both! One of them is innocent!"
Vejita frowned even harder, but said nothing. He knew his son was right, but he didn't have to like it.
Sailor Moon, still ignoring her family and friends, paused her assault on the imposter. She slowly pulled back her right fist as far as she could and tightened it as tightly as possible. "Say goodnight!"
Tatsuo frowned up at Goku, who was standing almost directly overhead. Why weren't any of them helping, he wondered. Had they not had an alliance between the Senshi? Couldn't they tell that the girl who was hitting him was obviously the evil Sailor Moon? She wasn't even giving him a chance to retaliate, not that he was really trying, but that wasn't the point. The point was to make them attack her FOR him. "You fools! Don't just stand there and WATCH! Help me!"
Sailor Moon narrowed her eyes. She still didn't know exactly what was happening, but she didn't want to wait to find out either. She wasn't going to make the same mistake she had made with Cell and the Dark Kingdom. This time SHE would make the finishing move. "No one wants to help a low life like you." She slowly began to lower her fist toward her target, Tatsuo's face. It wouldn't have done anything too much to him except maybe knock him out. But at that point, she only needed a moment to explain herself to her father, a moment without Tatsuo the imposter to get in the way.
Goten darted a glance up at Goku only to receive a quick nod. He knew exactly what to do at that point. Looking back down at the girl on top, he reached down, and, with one hand, he grabbed onto the arm that was going in for the attack.
Caught off guard and confused, Sailor Moon turned around to be face to face with her angered brother. "Let go!" She cried out.
Goten frowned as he looked past the attacker down to her victim whose face was covered in blood from the attacks. "This has stop now." He let his eyes drift back to Sailor Moon, his eyes forming an angrier frown.
Sailor Moon growled as she looked back down at Tatsuo and tried desperately to break free from her brother. "Let go! Let go! You don't understand! I'M the REAL Sailor Moon! She's an imposter!"
Tatsuo, through his pain, managed to give a frown of his own. "No, I'M the real Sailor Moon. She's the enemy."
Goten ignored the two girls and wrapped his other arm around Sailor Moon's stomach and pulled her away from Tatsuo. "I don't care. Tell it to somebody who does." He looked up to his father, basically asking him what to do.
Goku motioned for his son to continue holding the girl. He would have to figure this out before any actions were implemented. He looked down at the other girl, at her tattered clothing and torn face. At that point, any and all thoughts flew out of his mind. This was one situation he truly did not know what to do. He didn't want to hurt an innocent girl, yet again, he didn't want the imposter going free. He didn't know this girl well enough to just KNOW who the real one was either. "We obviously aren't going to get anywhere just by asking you two. You both claim to be the same person."
Krillin knelt down to the hurt Tatsuo and put his arm under his neck to help brace him into a sitting position. "You ok?"
Sailor Moon frowned as she began to squirm. "Who cares about her?! She's an imposter!"
Tatsuo grinned as he leaned into Krillin's arm. "There's only one way to find out."
Vejita smirked. "Blast you both and see which on survives. The real Sailor Moon should be immune to our Ki attacks from what Kakaratto says."
Goku frowned as he crossed his arms and turned back to the Saiyan Prince. "That's not very practical, Vejita." Vejita glared at Goku, but said nothing.
Sailor Moon frowned up at her brother with a quiet growl. "Let me go. I AM the real Sailor Moon. You should know that! What's wrong with you?"
Growing tired of this already, Tatsuo yawned. "I know how we can settle this."
Sailor Moon stopped fidgeting and looked down in interest. "I'm listening."
Tatsuo cracked his knuckles with a chuckle. This would be too easy. With Usagi powerless except for Moon power she would be nothing against him. "I challenge you."
Sailor Moon's eyes shot open with fear. She knew she couldn't handle a fight in her current condition. She was taking a risk when she attacked the imposter as it was. Who knows what kind of power she held. "What? Are you nuts? We can't fight right now!"
Goku walked past Tatsuo and began studying the girl in Goten's hands. He found it strange that she become tense at the mention of equal fighting instead of an ambush. "You seemed pretty eager to fight just a minute ago."
Sailor Moon froze, not knowing what to say to that. Sometimes, if her father wasn't on her side, he could be a real pain. "Well, its just that, there are more important things to be worrying about right now, that's all." She closed her eyes and berated herself inside her head. She knew that was a stupid excuse, and excuse her father would see right through, but she wasn't good at this. There was too much riding on this entire situation for her to be thinking straight.
Goku frowned. This wasn't good for convincing him that she was the real Sailor Moon. "Ok, I'm going to be blunt here. First you come and beat the hell outta that Sailor Moon and NOW you don't want to fight anymore. And you come up with a stupid excuse as to WHY you can't fight right now? Do you really think that we're going to buy this?"
Vejita grinned rather evilly as he approached Goten and the girl. "YOU'RE the imposter!"
Sailor Moon's body suddenly became extremely warm as her head began dizzy. This wasn't happening. They weren't supposed to be accusing her of being the imposter. Maybe she would have to tell them the truth after all, but that would come only as a last resort. She could feel her friends coming. 'Maybe if I can last until they get here to clear this up. They'll know that I'M the true Sailor Moon.'
Sailor Moon looked up to her father, and then to Vejita who was eagerly awaiting his chance to "blast" her. "I'll."
Tatsuo forced himself to his feet, giving himself extra power to compensate for his wounds. "Give up?!"
Sailor Moon frowned. "No! I'll do it! I'll fight you! But I'm warning you. you'll be sorry when I'm through with you!"
Tatsuo lightheartedly laughed as he shrugged his shoulders. "I don't know about all that."
Goten loosened his grip on Sailor Moon and gently dropped her to her feet. He was close to believing that Tatsuo was the real Sailor Moon after Usagi's performance. "This is nuts." He said as he turned to his older brother.
Gohan nodded in agreement. "I know. Who ever heard of two of the same people who weren't twins?"
~*~*~
~~Son House~~
Chi-Chi dressed herself as quickly as she could. There was no way she would just let her daughter waltz out of the house just like that without permission. No. Goku would hear about this before things got out of hand. Who knew when Usagi would be coming back home. She had been acting so weird in the last couple of days. She was already skating on thin ice as it was.
Chi-Chi stomped outside and felt around for her daughter before doing anything else, but came up with nothing. "So you wanna play it that way? Go ahead and hide it, little girl. When you come home your fun will be over. AND YOU BETTER HAVE THAT BROACH WITH YOU!" Frowning to herself, she felt out for her husband's power level. He seemed to be stationary, but not where she had thought he would be. 'Did he get his tail removed already?' Shrugging, she let herself float into the air. It didn't matter to her one way or the other. All she knew was that her husband was surrounded by everyone else, which wasn't necessarily something to be happy over. That usually only meant that they were about to make their move. Chi-Chi grinned to herself. This time, it wouldn't be without her. "Here I go.!"
Raising her power level, Chi-Chi started out for her husband's position. A little voice in the back of her mind hoped that there was a chance that her daughter had gone to meet Goku there was well. Then she wouldn't have to worry about where the girl was. Maybe she had decided to come clean about the broach to him before something awful happened.
~*~*~
Sailor Moon and Tatsuo stood face to face, both in their own fighting stances. There was something familiar to the men about one Sailor Moon's stance in particular, like it was a variation of Usagi's, but this was the Sailor Moon who had dealt the damage to the other. This was the Sailor Moon they didn't exactly trust yet.
Tatsuo licked away some blood that had dripped down the side of his mouth. He would enjoy pounding Usagi into a pulp in front of everyone and then revealing the truth to them. "Prepare to die."
Sailor Moon paid no attention to the imposter's taunts. She had been taught long before not to let a foe's words sink in too deeply for all they would do is throw her concentration off. She didn't even bother to say anything in reply. She wanted to stay completely focused during this battle, if one could even call it that. This would be a very one-sided fight, with her on the receiving end. "Let's just go."
Tatsuo nodded. He didn't have any problem with that. He wanted to see Usagi in pain. "Let's."
Sailor Moon thanked her lucky stars that her mother had forced her to learn how to fight without relying on her Ki. She wouldn't stand a chance right now if she hadn't.
Goku watched only halfheartedly as the two girls raced out toward each other in full force, both with the same speed. His heart was really in his thoughts, rather than what was going on around him. And his thoughts were with the cloning of Sailor Moon. There were two of her, who's to say that there weren't two Usagi's? That would explain the odd behavior. That would also explain why Usagi didn't remember any of what had happened.
Goku smiled as he crossed his arms. That would mean that his Usagi hadn't attacked him at all, in any mind set. It was only a clone. His thoughts froze as he remembered one very interesting detail from his daughter's explanation of what she remembered, something that scared him to death. She had told him that Tatsuo was the one to have knocked her out. But he didn't believe her. How could he have? Tatsuo had seemed like a nice, average boy. Her story wasn't sounding all that far-fetched anymore now that he thought about it. It made perfect sense now that he saw two of the same people fighting one another for their identity.
Goku's face turned pure white as he turned his eyes downward in shame. He had treated his daughter horribly, and relentlessly too. He called her a liar, and even after she told him her story he still didn't fully believe her. But how could he have? It didn't add up. That would all change now. He had to make sure that he picked the right Sailor Moon as the true Sailor Moon. He wouldn't let this silly fight determine it. He would have to watch both of them carefully. He knew that the real Sailor Moon was a righteous fighter and wouldn't try anything stupid.
Meanwhile, the fight had already started and Tatsuo already seemed to have the upper hand. He had one major advantage over Sailor Moon, which was all he needed to win the fight. He had the advantage of being able to boost his Ki to give him more power. He wasn't physically stronger, but he was more powerful.
Tatsuo curled his fingers in enough to leave only his palm exposed and pulled it down to his side to keep it hidden enough so Sailor Moon wouldn't see it. He used his other hand to grab the girl by the back of the neck and lift her up into the air. He laughed wickedly as he proceeded to raise his palm and smash it into the girl's face, causing a shrill of pain to arise. "Give up yet!?"
Sailor Moon muffled her cries as fast as she could. She wanted to show as little pain as possible. She had learned the hard way that showing pain only worked to give the enemy confidence. "Never!" She picked herself up off the ground and jumped away from Tatsuo. Lifting her hand up, she wiped away some blood that had trickled down her forehead. She didn't take her eyes off of her opponent. "I haven't even gotten warmed up yet."
Tatsuo smirked. He knew that was a bluff, but Sailor Moon didn't know that he knew. "Then show me what you've got."
Sailor Moon lowered herself into yet another fighting stance. She didn't have much to show, in fact, she had already done everything she could, which was practically nothing. A few hits had actually made it to her opponent, only one of which had actually hurt him. She could feel her friends getting closer and closer. They would be there any minute now. But they were all she could feel because of their planetary powers. Her mother she could not feel.
Goku, on the other hand, could very easily feel his wife approaching with great speed, which worried him. This was no place for her, especially since she was supposed to be protecting two things: the broach and their daughter. "Shit!"
Krillin looked up at his best friend in curiosity. "What is it Goku?" He didn't even have to wait for an answer before he too realized exactly what was going down. "She's crazy!"
Goku frowned as he prepared to teleport. "She's dead! Usagi's not with her!"
Krillin's eyes widened in shock. He had never once in his life heard Goku talk in such a way about anyone who was peaceful. He had always had such a carefree outlook on life. ".uh."
Sailor Moon froze in place and turned her head to her father. Her acute hearing had picked up exactly what was said. She didn't need to know the entire story to know her mother was on her way. "What?!" Tatsuo took this opportunity to strike his opponent in the abdomen. Sailor Moon grabbed her stomach and doubled over in pain.
With no further words Goku teleported for his wife. Sailor Moon winced as yet another blow came upon her body, but the pain seemed to take a backseat to her worries; things weren't going to plan. She hadn't expected her mother to come and look for her. What was the woman thinking?
~*~*~
Chi-Chi wasn't paying any attention to what was going on where her husband was. In fact, after locating him she had almost completely forgotten him. She had focused more of her attention to the search for her daughter, whose energy pattern was nowhere to be found, which only worried her more than anything. Was this what Goku went through every time he tried to find her? He had always said that when she wasn't in a state of being powered up that she was almost impossible to find. But this was unusual. He had always been able to locate her relatively soon.
Goku found himself at the side of his wife, frowning. "What are you doing?" He called out to her rather sternly.
Chi-Chi stopped herself cold at the sound of Goku's words. "Goku?" She turned her head to her husband, wondering what was going on.
Goku didn't wait for his wife to say anything before he started in. "Where's Usagi? Why aren't you home with her? You know she's helpless right now."
Those words brought no comfort to the woman. She had hoped that maybe Usagi would have gone to him, but it was obvious she wasn't. "Your daughter decided to run off. I don't know where she is. I thought you might know, or rather, want to know." Her words tingled with spite. "She hasn't learned her lesson yet."
Goku's heart quickened at the sound that his daughter was gone. He didn't have time to go and find her. He needed to be back at the fight between the Sailor Moons. If something more than their fight broke out he wanted to be there to fight it back. But now it seemed as though he would have to search for his child instead. He didn't want any more danger to come to her. "Great. She sure picked a fine time."
"She took the broach with her."
Goku frowned even harder as he angrily clenched his fists. "What?!"
Chi-Chi solemnly nodded with her eyes turned down to the ground in shame. "She stole it while I was showering."
Goku growled as he approached his wife and wrapped his arm around her waist. "Come on."
Chi-Chi flinched in surprise. "Do you feel her?"
Goku shook his head. "No. But you're staying with me. I want to be able to keep an eye on you, for now."
Chi-Chi frowned as she gently pushed her husband away. "Now just what in the world do you think you're talking about? I don't need to be watched. I'm not a child! YOU of all people should know that!"
Goku sighed as he lowered his head; his stress was building up faster than he could think. "Listen! I know! But whoever's come to this world has the ability to clone. I think. Right now there are two Sailor Moon's fighting each other. I'm pretty sure that's what happened with Usagi. I'm not sure what this thing has planned, but, while I think, I want to know where everyone is, leaving no one alone for this clone to become. It's already trying to trick us about who the real Sailor Moon is."
Chi-Chi continued to frown, though her anger was subsiding. "Alright. I'll buy that. But if you think for one minute that I'm going to sit around and watch two people fight while my baby is missing you've got another thing coming."
Goku smiled softly. "Don't worry. Once we get back to the others we'll send Goten and Trunks to go and look for her, and you can go with them." He reached out and re-wrapped his arm around his wife's waist once again. "Now let's get outta here, k?"
~*~*~
The Senshi were approaching the fallout between the two Sailor Moons rapidly and could now see everything that was going on with ease. All were horrified at what they saw, and felt. Both girls looked exactly alike and FELT exactly alike.
They stopped simultaneously just behind the other fighters so their presence wouldn't be detected. Jupiter's mouth hung open as her eyes bulged out at what she saw. Both Sailor Moon's were going at it, though one seemed to be taking more hits than the other, both being equally torn apart from one another. ".ahh."
Venus slightly nodded as if she fully understood the words not spoken by her comrade. "How awful."
Mercury too found herself frozen from the actions taking place before her. "One of them is our friend."
Mars slowly turned toward Mercury, her face white with fear. "How do we know which one is OUR Sailor Moon?"
"I was hoping you guys would have known." Came a male's voice from behind. The Senshi jumped as they turned around. If they had not recognized the voice they would have immediately prepared for an attack. Luckily, it was only Goku, which Chi-Chi at his side.
Mercury was the first to become calm, being the one who always kept her cool in rough situations. "Well. they both have the same power so it's hard to tell." She let her eyes travel downward as she began to slip into a deep though, but was caught off guard by a slender, brown item at Goku's waist. 'A tail?!'
Goku frowned as he looked past the girls at the fight. Sailor Moon had just delivered a powerful kick to Tatsuo's face, causing him to fall to his knees. 'Of course. it's just like Usagi. Both girls have the same power. that's why it was Usagi's power I felt. The clone is identical in every possible way, both appearance AND power. Bastards!'
Mars studied Goku's face very carefully. She could sense confusion and frustration coming from him, more so than when the Dark Kingdom kidnapped Usagi. 'What's he thinking about?' "We'll try to figure out who the real Sailor Moon is, sir. Don't worry."
Goku nodded with a little relief. He was grateful that someone who could actually feel power levels was actually here. "Great." He turned to his wife, still mostly concerned with the safety of his daughter. "Let's get Goten and Trunks searching."
Chi-Chi nodded with a smile. "The sooner the better."
Jupiter frowned. "Searching for what?"
Goku looked up to the green Senshi with an emotionless face. "My daughter is missing and she has a key that may stop this mess."
Mercury snapped her head up. "What kind of key?" She asked with suspicion.
Goku shrugged. "I'm not sure. It's some kind of broach. Some guy came and attacked her the other night. He wanted the broach." Mercury and Mars quickly exchanged worried glares with one another. Goku found their reaction rather suspicious. "Do you girls know anything about it?"
Mercury shot a glance back at Goku, her eyes full of fear. "N.no. All we know is that it's the Moon Princess' "
Goku frowned. It was obvious by their reaction that they knew more. "Alright." He reached out and gently grabbed his wife's hand. "We'll let you guys go to work then."
Venus nodded as the Saiyan led his wife past the group. She sighed as she turned back to her fellow Senshi. "Guys! This is NOT good!"
Jupiter frowned as she got into a cross-legged position. "It's that same guy who wants the broach Usagi told us about. That means right now Sailor Moon is fighting that guy." She paused and looked over her shoulder just as Sailor Moon was being tossed into the air, only to be knocked down again. "But why is she loosing so bad?"
Venus frowned with a deep growl. "Let's get this guy. Mercury, do you think you can try to work your computer into telling us who the real Sailor Moon is?"
Mercury shrugged. "I really don't know. If we can't tell who she is just by sensing her power on our own, then the computer surely can't. They both seem to have the same power energy."
Jupiter groaned. "Can't you do a DNA check?"
"That's not realistic at this point. They are both the same exact person, meaning their DNA configuration would be the same. The only way we can tell is by who has the broach, well, the true broach that is. And the only way to do that would be to get our hands on both of their broaches, which doesn't look like it's going to happen at this point of the game."
Venus; "That's obvious."
Mars sighed. "I guess the only way to. wait a minute, let's open the link! We'll tell the real Sailor Moon to get over here through the link! That way the fake one won't hear us and the real one will be found out!"
Venus smiled with a high-pitched squeal of excitement. "That's a GREAT idea Mars!"
Mars smiled. "Let's go! I'll do it!" Before waiting for an agreement from her friends, Mars closed her eyes and raised her power level as she proceeded to open a link between herself and the true Sailor Moon.
Jupiter crossed her fingers, hoping that this would actually work. Not that she really doubted it, but she had a bad feeling that it couldn't all be this easy.
Mars' smile turned into a frown as she opened her eyes. "Dang it!"
Jupiter's face nearly shattered. "What?"
Mars ignored Jupiter and closed her eyes again as she tried to open the link again. 'Usagi, do you hear me? Get over here if you do? Come on!' She opened her eyes to see if anything was happening, but the two Sailor Moon's were still taking pieces out of one another. "She's not answering! I don't think I'm getting through to her."
Venus frowned. "What? Of course you have to be getting through to her. Maybe she can't hear you through all that noise. Of course, it IS inside her head. WHY ISN'T SHE ANSWERING?"
~*~*~
"SHE WHAT!?" Vejita growled. Goku and Chi-Chi had just told the rest of the gang their current situation with the youngest member of the group. Vejita, obviously, wasn't too keen on her decision to run off. "How could she possibly be so STUPID!?"
Chi-Chi pushed past her husband and put her index finger in Vejita's face. "Listen, Mister! Watch your mouth! She may not have made the smartest decision, but she's not stupid!"
Vejita glared at the woman before him. "Haven't you ever noticed that your daughter is always the reason situations are heightened like this? Now she's gone and made more or a problem than needed."
Gohan pulled his mother aside, hoping to quell the argument before it really started. "Mom, he does have a point. She's known for getting herself in trouble." He paused as he frowned down at the Saiyan Prince. "But she isn't stupid. She's just a kid. a very impulsive kid, but a kid nonetheless."
Vejita frowned with a quiet growl. "So the brat got herself into more trouble. I don't care. I want to know what you're going to do about these two. I'm getting pissed off just standing here and watching this child's play."
Goku ignored Vejita and looked at his youngest son. "Goten, you and Trunks take your mother to look for your sister. When you have, stay with her and don't let her out of your sight. Gohan's right about her being impulsive. She's powerless right now, and I want her to stay safe."
Goten nodded. "Understood."
Tatsuo grinned widely as he jumped away from Sailor Moon, completely stopping his assault on her. "That won't be necessary."
The shocked group of people turned their attention from each other to the dominating Sailor Moon. Goku pushed Krillin aside to stand as the leader of the group. "What are you talking about?"
Sailor Moon fell to a knee, though not ready to give up. This was her chance to regain her strength. She watched Tatsuo approach her family even closer, her attention soon being taken up by taking notice that her friends weren't far behind. "Guys." She whispered.
Tatsuo grinned even more deviously. "You see, I know where your daughter is."
Sailor Moon's attention was soon diverted away from her friends and back to Tatsuo. "No." She tried to yell out, but it came out as nothing more than a quiet whisper.
Chi-Chi cocked her head to the side in confusion. "How can you know that? Her power can't be traced by any of us."
Tatsuo upped his power to give himself more strength. "As Sailor Moon I know these things. Now, your daughter is right."
"Moon Tiara ACTION!"
Sailor Moon's Tiara lit up in a bright golden color as it spun toward Tatsuo, but he wasn't going to be taken so easy. He spun around and retaliated with his own version of Sailor Moon's attack. As the two disks collided with one another, they ricocheted off one another and lost power.
Tatsuo frowned, his attention suddenly being diverted back to Sailor Moon. "You shouldn't have done that, little girl." His eyes suddenly flared blue with anger as he glared as Sailor Moon with pure hatred. "No one attacks me from behind and gets away with it."
(Ok, So there it is. I'll try to get another chapter out tomorrow, and if not tomorrow, hopefully Thursday. Until school ends in June, don't expect one everyday, most likely every other day. Although, homework should be low for the next week. ^_^ Well, I'll be seein ya then. Bye! )
~*~*~
Sailor Moon landed on Tatsuo with a thud, her force causing the ground beneath to cave in slightly. "YOU!" She hollered at the top of her lungs, not even paying attention to everyone else. They weren't her main concern at the moment. The imposter was the only thing she could think of.
Tatsuo was unable to truly prepare himself for impact, as Sailor Moon was falling too fast to allow him to try anything. But he didn't mind. She would be overthrown with ease. And with the use of his powers he would be able to convince Goku and the others that he was in fact the true Sailor Moon. Narrowing his eyes, he did the only thing he could which was to brace himself.
Sailor Moon smashed the heels of her feet into her counterpart's face, causing him to fall back into the ground with a loud thud.
~*~*~
The Sailor Senshi were on their way to Tatsuo's Sailor Moon when they felt the collision of the Sailor Moons. All four stopped in both confusion and fear. No words were exchanged, but they weren't needed. They all knew what was going down. The real Sailor Moon was fighting the imposter, obviously the same guy who had disguised himself as Usagi the day before. She would be all alone, technically. Although there were other fighters around her, none would know who the real Sailor Moon was, which could pose a major problem for their friend.
Sailor Venus, taking charge as leader, turned to her fellow Senshi, more in fear now than ever now that the realization had finally taken place. "Come on girls! Usagi needs us!"
Jupiter nodded with an honorable frown. "Let's go!"
The four knew their duty. They would protect Usagi, and it wasn't because she was the Princess of the Moon. They knew much deeper duty, and that was one of friendship. They wouldn't let her down. All four increased their powers to the max and headed toward the fight.
~*~*~
Those who were around turned almost immediately upon hearing the sounds of their comrade being attacked. All were ready to launch attacks of their own to help the girl, but stopped suddenly. No words were exchanged, but all knew something was terribly wrong, for here there were two of what appeared to be the same girl fighting each other.
Tatsuo was continually punched into the ground by Sailor Moon without mercy, none of which he felt. But just to appear to be in distress, he cried out for help. Everything was going according to plan now. Sailor Moon had fallen into his trap. Once he made the others see that he was the real Sailor Moon, Usagi would be put out of commission for good, and he would now be the holder of the broach.
Tatsuo failed to fight back against the raging Senshi. "Help! Somebody, help!" He cried out. No one made a move. Instead, they just stood around and gawked in awe. None could comprehend the actions being played out before their eyes.
Gohan, with his mouth hanging open, looked up to his father for answers, who had always seemed to have them in the past. But now, his father seemed to be just as confused as the rest of the guys.
Goku scratched his head in frustration. In all his encounters in the past he had never once seen anything like this. He wanted to help, but not the wrong one, and not being able to feel their power levels really hindered his effort to see who was true and who wasn't. Had he been able to feel their individual powers all of this would have been so much easier, but then again, it wouldn't be nearly as fun now would it? "Well.?"
Vejita crossed his arms and frowned. He wasn't up for these shenanigans. He wouldn't tolerate it from his kids and he sure as hell wouldn't tolerate it from these brats. "Blast them both!"
Trunks groaned as he glared down to his father. "We can't just "blast" them both! One of them is innocent!"
Vejita frowned even harder, but said nothing. He knew his son was right, but he didn't have to like it.
Sailor Moon, still ignoring her family and friends, paused her assault on the imposter. She slowly pulled back her right fist as far as she could and tightened it as tightly as possible. "Say goodnight!"
Tatsuo frowned up at Goku, who was standing almost directly overhead. Why weren't any of them helping, he wondered. Had they not had an alliance between the Senshi? Couldn't they tell that the girl who was hitting him was obviously the evil Sailor Moon? She wasn't even giving him a chance to retaliate, not that he was really trying, but that wasn't the point. The point was to make them attack her FOR him. "You fools! Don't just stand there and WATCH! Help me!"
Sailor Moon narrowed her eyes. She still didn't know exactly what was happening, but she didn't want to wait to find out either. She wasn't going to make the same mistake she had made with Cell and the Dark Kingdom. This time SHE would make the finishing move. "No one wants to help a low life like you." She slowly began to lower her fist toward her target, Tatsuo's face. It wouldn't have done anything too much to him except maybe knock him out. But at that point, she only needed a moment to explain herself to her father, a moment without Tatsuo the imposter to get in the way.
Goten darted a glance up at Goku only to receive a quick nod. He knew exactly what to do at that point. Looking back down at the girl on top, he reached down, and, with one hand, he grabbed onto the arm that was going in for the attack.
Caught off guard and confused, Sailor Moon turned around to be face to face with her angered brother. "Let go!" She cried out.
Goten frowned as he looked past the attacker down to her victim whose face was covered in blood from the attacks. "This has stop now." He let his eyes drift back to Sailor Moon, his eyes forming an angrier frown.
Sailor Moon growled as she looked back down at Tatsuo and tried desperately to break free from her brother. "Let go! Let go! You don't understand! I'M the REAL Sailor Moon! She's an imposter!"
Tatsuo, through his pain, managed to give a frown of his own. "No, I'M the real Sailor Moon. She's the enemy."
Goten ignored the two girls and wrapped his other arm around Sailor Moon's stomach and pulled her away from Tatsuo. "I don't care. Tell it to somebody who does." He looked up to his father, basically asking him what to do.
Goku motioned for his son to continue holding the girl. He would have to figure this out before any actions were implemented. He looked down at the other girl, at her tattered clothing and torn face. At that point, any and all thoughts flew out of his mind. This was one situation he truly did not know what to do. He didn't want to hurt an innocent girl, yet again, he didn't want the imposter going free. He didn't know this girl well enough to just KNOW who the real one was either. "We obviously aren't going to get anywhere just by asking you two. You both claim to be the same person."
Krillin knelt down to the hurt Tatsuo and put his arm under his neck to help brace him into a sitting position. "You ok?"
Sailor Moon frowned as she began to squirm. "Who cares about her?! She's an imposter!"
Tatsuo grinned as he leaned into Krillin's arm. "There's only one way to find out."
Vejita smirked. "Blast you both and see which on survives. The real Sailor Moon should be immune to our Ki attacks from what Kakaratto says."
Goku frowned as he crossed his arms and turned back to the Saiyan Prince. "That's not very practical, Vejita." Vejita glared at Goku, but said nothing.
Sailor Moon frowned up at her brother with a quiet growl. "Let me go. I AM the real Sailor Moon. You should know that! What's wrong with you?"
Growing tired of this already, Tatsuo yawned. "I know how we can settle this."
Sailor Moon stopped fidgeting and looked down in interest. "I'm listening."
Tatsuo cracked his knuckles with a chuckle. This would be too easy. With Usagi powerless except for Moon power she would be nothing against him. "I challenge you."
Sailor Moon's eyes shot open with fear. She knew she couldn't handle a fight in her current condition. She was taking a risk when she attacked the imposter as it was. Who knows what kind of power she held. "What? Are you nuts? We can't fight right now!"
Goku walked past Tatsuo and began studying the girl in Goten's hands. He found it strange that she become tense at the mention of equal fighting instead of an ambush. "You seemed pretty eager to fight just a minute ago."
Sailor Moon froze, not knowing what to say to that. Sometimes, if her father wasn't on her side, he could be a real pain. "Well, its just that, there are more important things to be worrying about right now, that's all." She closed her eyes and berated herself inside her head. She knew that was a stupid excuse, and excuse her father would see right through, but she wasn't good at this. There was too much riding on this entire situation for her to be thinking straight.
Goku frowned. This wasn't good for convincing him that she was the real Sailor Moon. "Ok, I'm going to be blunt here. First you come and beat the hell outta that Sailor Moon and NOW you don't want to fight anymore. And you come up with a stupid excuse as to WHY you can't fight right now? Do you really think that we're going to buy this?"
Vejita grinned rather evilly as he approached Goten and the girl. "YOU'RE the imposter!"
Sailor Moon's body suddenly became extremely warm as her head began dizzy. This wasn't happening. They weren't supposed to be accusing her of being the imposter. Maybe she would have to tell them the truth after all, but that would come only as a last resort. She could feel her friends coming. 'Maybe if I can last until they get here to clear this up. They'll know that I'M the true Sailor Moon.'
Sailor Moon looked up to her father, and then to Vejita who was eagerly awaiting his chance to "blast" her. "I'll."
Tatsuo forced himself to his feet, giving himself extra power to compensate for his wounds. "Give up?!"
Sailor Moon frowned. "No! I'll do it! I'll fight you! But I'm warning you. you'll be sorry when I'm through with you!"
Tatsuo lightheartedly laughed as he shrugged his shoulders. "I don't know about all that."
Goten loosened his grip on Sailor Moon and gently dropped her to her feet. He was close to believing that Tatsuo was the real Sailor Moon after Usagi's performance. "This is nuts." He said as he turned to his older brother.
Gohan nodded in agreement. "I know. Who ever heard of two of the same people who weren't twins?"
~*~*~
~~Son House~~
Chi-Chi dressed herself as quickly as she could. There was no way she would just let her daughter waltz out of the house just like that without permission. No. Goku would hear about this before things got out of hand. Who knew when Usagi would be coming back home. She had been acting so weird in the last couple of days. She was already skating on thin ice as it was.
Chi-Chi stomped outside and felt around for her daughter before doing anything else, but came up with nothing. "So you wanna play it that way? Go ahead and hide it, little girl. When you come home your fun will be over. AND YOU BETTER HAVE THAT BROACH WITH YOU!" Frowning to herself, she felt out for her husband's power level. He seemed to be stationary, but not where she had thought he would be. 'Did he get his tail removed already?' Shrugging, she let herself float into the air. It didn't matter to her one way or the other. All she knew was that her husband was surrounded by everyone else, which wasn't necessarily something to be happy over. That usually only meant that they were about to make their move. Chi-Chi grinned to herself. This time, it wouldn't be without her. "Here I go.!"
Raising her power level, Chi-Chi started out for her husband's position. A little voice in the back of her mind hoped that there was a chance that her daughter had gone to meet Goku there was well. Then she wouldn't have to worry about where the girl was. Maybe she had decided to come clean about the broach to him before something awful happened.
~*~*~
Sailor Moon and Tatsuo stood face to face, both in their own fighting stances. There was something familiar to the men about one Sailor Moon's stance in particular, like it was a variation of Usagi's, but this was the Sailor Moon who had dealt the damage to the other. This was the Sailor Moon they didn't exactly trust yet.
Tatsuo licked away some blood that had dripped down the side of his mouth. He would enjoy pounding Usagi into a pulp in front of everyone and then revealing the truth to them. "Prepare to die."
Sailor Moon paid no attention to the imposter's taunts. She had been taught long before not to let a foe's words sink in too deeply for all they would do is throw her concentration off. She didn't even bother to say anything in reply. She wanted to stay completely focused during this battle, if one could even call it that. This would be a very one-sided fight, with her on the receiving end. "Let's just go."
Tatsuo nodded. He didn't have any problem with that. He wanted to see Usagi in pain. "Let's."
Sailor Moon thanked her lucky stars that her mother had forced her to learn how to fight without relying on her Ki. She wouldn't stand a chance right now if she hadn't.
Goku watched only halfheartedly as the two girls raced out toward each other in full force, both with the same speed. His heart was really in his thoughts, rather than what was going on around him. And his thoughts were with the cloning of Sailor Moon. There were two of her, who's to say that there weren't two Usagi's? That would explain the odd behavior. That would also explain why Usagi didn't remember any of what had happened.
Goku smiled as he crossed his arms. That would mean that his Usagi hadn't attacked him at all, in any mind set. It was only a clone. His thoughts froze as he remembered one very interesting detail from his daughter's explanation of what she remembered, something that scared him to death. She had told him that Tatsuo was the one to have knocked her out. But he didn't believe her. How could he have? Tatsuo had seemed like a nice, average boy. Her story wasn't sounding all that far-fetched anymore now that he thought about it. It made perfect sense now that he saw two of the same people fighting one another for their identity.
Goku's face turned pure white as he turned his eyes downward in shame. He had treated his daughter horribly, and relentlessly too. He called her a liar, and even after she told him her story he still didn't fully believe her. But how could he have? It didn't add up. That would all change now. He had to make sure that he picked the right Sailor Moon as the true Sailor Moon. He wouldn't let this silly fight determine it. He would have to watch both of them carefully. He knew that the real Sailor Moon was a righteous fighter and wouldn't try anything stupid.
Meanwhile, the fight had already started and Tatsuo already seemed to have the upper hand. He had one major advantage over Sailor Moon, which was all he needed to win the fight. He had the advantage of being able to boost his Ki to give him more power. He wasn't physically stronger, but he was more powerful.
Tatsuo curled his fingers in enough to leave only his palm exposed and pulled it down to his side to keep it hidden enough so Sailor Moon wouldn't see it. He used his other hand to grab the girl by the back of the neck and lift her up into the air. He laughed wickedly as he proceeded to raise his palm and smash it into the girl's face, causing a shrill of pain to arise. "Give up yet!?"
Sailor Moon muffled her cries as fast as she could. She wanted to show as little pain as possible. She had learned the hard way that showing pain only worked to give the enemy confidence. "Never!" She picked herself up off the ground and jumped away from Tatsuo. Lifting her hand up, she wiped away some blood that had trickled down her forehead. She didn't take her eyes off of her opponent. "I haven't even gotten warmed up yet."
Tatsuo smirked. He knew that was a bluff, but Sailor Moon didn't know that he knew. "Then show me what you've got."
Sailor Moon lowered herself into yet another fighting stance. She didn't have much to show, in fact, she had already done everything she could, which was practically nothing. A few hits had actually made it to her opponent, only one of which had actually hurt him. She could feel her friends getting closer and closer. They would be there any minute now. But they were all she could feel because of their planetary powers. Her mother she could not feel.
Goku, on the other hand, could very easily feel his wife approaching with great speed, which worried him. This was no place for her, especially since she was supposed to be protecting two things: the broach and their daughter. "Shit!"
Krillin looked up at his best friend in curiosity. "What is it Goku?" He didn't even have to wait for an answer before he too realized exactly what was going down. "She's crazy!"
Goku frowned as he prepared to teleport. "She's dead! Usagi's not with her!"
Krillin's eyes widened in shock. He had never once in his life heard Goku talk in such a way about anyone who was peaceful. He had always had such a carefree outlook on life. ".uh."
Sailor Moon froze in place and turned her head to her father. Her acute hearing had picked up exactly what was said. She didn't need to know the entire story to know her mother was on her way. "What?!" Tatsuo took this opportunity to strike his opponent in the abdomen. Sailor Moon grabbed her stomach and doubled over in pain.
With no further words Goku teleported for his wife. Sailor Moon winced as yet another blow came upon her body, but the pain seemed to take a backseat to her worries; things weren't going to plan. She hadn't expected her mother to come and look for her. What was the woman thinking?
~*~*~
Chi-Chi wasn't paying any attention to what was going on where her husband was. In fact, after locating him she had almost completely forgotten him. She had focused more of her attention to the search for her daughter, whose energy pattern was nowhere to be found, which only worried her more than anything. Was this what Goku went through every time he tried to find her? He had always said that when she wasn't in a state of being powered up that she was almost impossible to find. But this was unusual. He had always been able to locate her relatively soon.
Goku found himself at the side of his wife, frowning. "What are you doing?" He called out to her rather sternly.
Chi-Chi stopped herself cold at the sound of Goku's words. "Goku?" She turned her head to her husband, wondering what was going on.
Goku didn't wait for his wife to say anything before he started in. "Where's Usagi? Why aren't you home with her? You know she's helpless right now."
Those words brought no comfort to the woman. She had hoped that maybe Usagi would have gone to him, but it was obvious she wasn't. "Your daughter decided to run off. I don't know where she is. I thought you might know, or rather, want to know." Her words tingled with spite. "She hasn't learned her lesson yet."
Goku's heart quickened at the sound that his daughter was gone. He didn't have time to go and find her. He needed to be back at the fight between the Sailor Moons. If something more than their fight broke out he wanted to be there to fight it back. But now it seemed as though he would have to search for his child instead. He didn't want any more danger to come to her. "Great. She sure picked a fine time."
"She took the broach with her."
Goku frowned even harder as he angrily clenched his fists. "What?!"
Chi-Chi solemnly nodded with her eyes turned down to the ground in shame. "She stole it while I was showering."
Goku growled as he approached his wife and wrapped his arm around her waist. "Come on."
Chi-Chi flinched in surprise. "Do you feel her?"
Goku shook his head. "No. But you're staying with me. I want to be able to keep an eye on you, for now."
Chi-Chi frowned as she gently pushed her husband away. "Now just what in the world do you think you're talking about? I don't need to be watched. I'm not a child! YOU of all people should know that!"
Goku sighed as he lowered his head; his stress was building up faster than he could think. "Listen! I know! But whoever's come to this world has the ability to clone. I think. Right now there are two Sailor Moon's fighting each other. I'm pretty sure that's what happened with Usagi. I'm not sure what this thing has planned, but, while I think, I want to know where everyone is, leaving no one alone for this clone to become. It's already trying to trick us about who the real Sailor Moon is."
Chi-Chi continued to frown, though her anger was subsiding. "Alright. I'll buy that. But if you think for one minute that I'm going to sit around and watch two people fight while my baby is missing you've got another thing coming."
Goku smiled softly. "Don't worry. Once we get back to the others we'll send Goten and Trunks to go and look for her, and you can go with them." He reached out and re-wrapped his arm around his wife's waist once again. "Now let's get outta here, k?"
~*~*~
The Senshi were approaching the fallout between the two Sailor Moons rapidly and could now see everything that was going on with ease. All were horrified at what they saw, and felt. Both girls looked exactly alike and FELT exactly alike.
They stopped simultaneously just behind the other fighters so their presence wouldn't be detected. Jupiter's mouth hung open as her eyes bulged out at what she saw. Both Sailor Moon's were going at it, though one seemed to be taking more hits than the other, both being equally torn apart from one another. ".ahh."
Venus slightly nodded as if she fully understood the words not spoken by her comrade. "How awful."
Mercury too found herself frozen from the actions taking place before her. "One of them is our friend."
Mars slowly turned toward Mercury, her face white with fear. "How do we know which one is OUR Sailor Moon?"
"I was hoping you guys would have known." Came a male's voice from behind. The Senshi jumped as they turned around. If they had not recognized the voice they would have immediately prepared for an attack. Luckily, it was only Goku, which Chi-Chi at his side.
Mercury was the first to become calm, being the one who always kept her cool in rough situations. "Well. they both have the same power so it's hard to tell." She let her eyes travel downward as she began to slip into a deep though, but was caught off guard by a slender, brown item at Goku's waist. 'A tail?!'
Goku frowned as he looked past the girls at the fight. Sailor Moon had just delivered a powerful kick to Tatsuo's face, causing him to fall to his knees. 'Of course. it's just like Usagi. Both girls have the same power. that's why it was Usagi's power I felt. The clone is identical in every possible way, both appearance AND power. Bastards!'
Mars studied Goku's face very carefully. She could sense confusion and frustration coming from him, more so than when the Dark Kingdom kidnapped Usagi. 'What's he thinking about?' "We'll try to figure out who the real Sailor Moon is, sir. Don't worry."
Goku nodded with a little relief. He was grateful that someone who could actually feel power levels was actually here. "Great." He turned to his wife, still mostly concerned with the safety of his daughter. "Let's get Goten and Trunks searching."
Chi-Chi nodded with a smile. "The sooner the better."
Jupiter frowned. "Searching for what?"
Goku looked up to the green Senshi with an emotionless face. "My daughter is missing and she has a key that may stop this mess."
Mercury snapped her head up. "What kind of key?" She asked with suspicion.
Goku shrugged. "I'm not sure. It's some kind of broach. Some guy came and attacked her the other night. He wanted the broach." Mercury and Mars quickly exchanged worried glares with one another. Goku found their reaction rather suspicious. "Do you girls know anything about it?"
Mercury shot a glance back at Goku, her eyes full of fear. "N.no. All we know is that it's the Moon Princess' "
Goku frowned. It was obvious by their reaction that they knew more. "Alright." He reached out and gently grabbed his wife's hand. "We'll let you guys go to work then."
Venus nodded as the Saiyan led his wife past the group. She sighed as she turned back to her fellow Senshi. "Guys! This is NOT good!"
Jupiter frowned as she got into a cross-legged position. "It's that same guy who wants the broach Usagi told us about. That means right now Sailor Moon is fighting that guy." She paused and looked over her shoulder just as Sailor Moon was being tossed into the air, only to be knocked down again. "But why is she loosing so bad?"
Venus frowned with a deep growl. "Let's get this guy. Mercury, do you think you can try to work your computer into telling us who the real Sailor Moon is?"
Mercury shrugged. "I really don't know. If we can't tell who she is just by sensing her power on our own, then the computer surely can't. They both seem to have the same power energy."
Jupiter groaned. "Can't you do a DNA check?"
"That's not realistic at this point. They are both the same exact person, meaning their DNA configuration would be the same. The only way we can tell is by who has the broach, well, the true broach that is. And the only way to do that would be to get our hands on both of their broaches, which doesn't look like it's going to happen at this point of the game."
Venus; "That's obvious."
Mars sighed. "I guess the only way to. wait a minute, let's open the link! We'll tell the real Sailor Moon to get over here through the link! That way the fake one won't hear us and the real one will be found out!"
Venus smiled with a high-pitched squeal of excitement. "That's a GREAT idea Mars!"
Mars smiled. "Let's go! I'll do it!" Before waiting for an agreement from her friends, Mars closed her eyes and raised her power level as she proceeded to open a link between herself and the true Sailor Moon.
Jupiter crossed her fingers, hoping that this would actually work. Not that she really doubted it, but she had a bad feeling that it couldn't all be this easy.
Mars' smile turned into a frown as she opened her eyes. "Dang it!"
Jupiter's face nearly shattered. "What?"
Mars ignored Jupiter and closed her eyes again as she tried to open the link again. 'Usagi, do you hear me? Get over here if you do? Come on!' She opened her eyes to see if anything was happening, but the two Sailor Moon's were still taking pieces out of one another. "She's not answering! I don't think I'm getting through to her."
Venus frowned. "What? Of course you have to be getting through to her. Maybe she can't hear you through all that noise. Of course, it IS inside her head. WHY ISN'T SHE ANSWERING?"
~*~*~
"SHE WHAT!?" Vejita growled. Goku and Chi-Chi had just told the rest of the gang their current situation with the youngest member of the group. Vejita, obviously, wasn't too keen on her decision to run off. "How could she possibly be so STUPID!?"
Chi-Chi pushed past her husband and put her index finger in Vejita's face. "Listen, Mister! Watch your mouth! She may not have made the smartest decision, but she's not stupid!"
Vejita glared at the woman before him. "Haven't you ever noticed that your daughter is always the reason situations are heightened like this? Now she's gone and made more or a problem than needed."
Gohan pulled his mother aside, hoping to quell the argument before it really started. "Mom, he does have a point. She's known for getting herself in trouble." He paused as he frowned down at the Saiyan Prince. "But she isn't stupid. She's just a kid. a very impulsive kid, but a kid nonetheless."
Vejita frowned with a quiet growl. "So the brat got herself into more trouble. I don't care. I want to know what you're going to do about these two. I'm getting pissed off just standing here and watching this child's play."
Goku ignored Vejita and looked at his youngest son. "Goten, you and Trunks take your mother to look for your sister. When you have, stay with her and don't let her out of your sight. Gohan's right about her being impulsive. She's powerless right now, and I want her to stay safe."
Goten nodded. "Understood."
Tatsuo grinned widely as he jumped away from Sailor Moon, completely stopping his assault on her. "That won't be necessary."
The shocked group of people turned their attention from each other to the dominating Sailor Moon. Goku pushed Krillin aside to stand as the leader of the group. "What are you talking about?"
Sailor Moon fell to a knee, though not ready to give up. This was her chance to regain her strength. She watched Tatsuo approach her family even closer, her attention soon being taken up by taking notice that her friends weren't far behind. "Guys." She whispered.
Tatsuo grinned even more deviously. "You see, I know where your daughter is."
Sailor Moon's attention was soon diverted away from her friends and back to Tatsuo. "No." She tried to yell out, but it came out as nothing more than a quiet whisper.
Chi-Chi cocked her head to the side in confusion. "How can you know that? Her power can't be traced by any of us."
Tatsuo upped his power to give himself more strength. "As Sailor Moon I know these things. Now, your daughter is right."
"Moon Tiara ACTION!"
Sailor Moon's Tiara lit up in a bright golden color as it spun toward Tatsuo, but he wasn't going to be taken so easy. He spun around and retaliated with his own version of Sailor Moon's attack. As the two disks collided with one another, they ricocheted off one another and lost power.
Tatsuo frowned, his attention suddenly being diverted back to Sailor Moon. "You shouldn't have done that, little girl." His eyes suddenly flared blue with anger as he glared as Sailor Moon with pure hatred. "No one attacks me from behind and gets away with it."
(Ok, So there it is. I'll try to get another chapter out tomorrow, and if not tomorrow, hopefully Thursday. Until school ends in June, don't expect one everyday, most likely every other day. Although, homework should be low for the next week. ^_^ Well, I'll be seein ya then. Bye! )
