DARK SCOUTS OF SWEET DREAMS PART 3!
(I played a lot of tough clubs in my time. Once a guy in one of those clubs wanted to bet me $10 that I was dead. I was afraid to bet. ~Henry Youngman)
"Now, for your attack!" Maroko smiled. "I have no weapon for you, the others did not think it was a good idea to give anything to you. But I have a power I can teach you! It is called Ai Tenchi Rei." "Love Angel Spirit? Okay." "It's simple, you must gather all the energy and power you can and," "Chaos!" She sighed. I don't think I can use a energy Blast." "Really? Okay then. There is something else." He held out a small Gem. "It is called the Mamora No Tsuki-Hoshi." "Protector of Moon Stars. Chaos, I can not use that!" "Why not?" "I AM a Moon-Star!"
"You are a Moon Star?" "Yes, A Moon Star is an old name for a Moon Princess! What it means is that this crystal can only be used to protect the Moon Princesses." Chaos looked at the Crystal closely. "Well, At least I won't have to help Ciran." "I'm still left defenseless then!" "Well, Someone else will protect you." "Like Who?" "Like Shiro Sei?" Maroko balled her fist. "I hate him! That sick hentai has been following me everywhere!" "No, he has not. I can see everything from the Spirit World; He only comes to battles to protect you! He likes you a lot." She frowned. "I love you! He's mean and ugly!" Chaos nodded. "Am I really that bad?" "Yes!" Maroko scratched her head. "Wait. what?"
"Well, back to business, Maroko, to protect yourself, I'll give you this." He held out some sort of small mangled flute or trumpet. It had a long shaft with a loop at the end, which opened up into a bowl shape. "What's that?" "A Spirit Conjurer. It can call upon spirits. I can even teach you a song."
"Can you?" "No. I don't know anything about that flute thing! But there is a girl called Hino Rei. She is priestess. She will know. Usagi is a close friend of hers."
"Now, there's just one more small thing you may have to worry about." "What?" "These are dark weapons. With your hearts so pure, you can't use them." "Why not.?" "Using dark arts for the side of good just doesn't work. But, there is a flaw in that system. Dark arts can be used easily for spirits!" "Does that mean we all have to die before we can fight these things?" "No, you'll just have to transform to Dark Scouts, or Spirit Scouts." "Spirit Scouts."
Maroko nodded. "Well Maroko. I'll be leaving you now." "What. no. you can't go." "But I must. You know that." Maroko examined the Spirit Conjurer. "Where are the spirit broches?" "Under your pillow." A loud ringing noise filled Maroko's ears. "Chaos! What's that noise?" "Good bye Maroko." He disappeared. "CHAOS!"
Maroko sat straight up in bed. Smoke was pouring out of her kitchen. "Tora?" The cat ran into the room. "Maroko? Oh, uh oh!" She ran back out again and the noise stopped. "Tora!" Batafurai yelled from the other room. "YOU NEARLY BURNT THE BUILDING DOWN! WHAT WERE YOU THINKING, TRYING TO OPERATE AN OVEN! YOU'RE A CAT!" "Maroko's awake." "Is she?"
Maroko yawned and got out of bed. "Tora. Do we have cotton Candy and Peanut Butter? I'm hungry." "You shouldn't eat that stuff you know." The pink kitten answered. Maroko sighed, ignoring the questions the others were asking. "Oh!" Maroko ran back into her bedroom and lifted her pillow. There were four broches. "Wow." Tora gazed over her shoulder. "Maroko. What are those?" "Spirit Broches."
The first brooch looked like a bug. It had a round middle, a set of white wings, and two curly golden moons on the top and bottom, the top ones supporting a heart. The center was pink and had a large silver diamond. On the tips of the diamonds were purple gems and on the sides were magenta colored hearts. "Spirit Sailor Moon. This ones for you Usagi-Chan."
The next one was a bit simpler. Its base was a large pink heart with a golden moon rounding out the shape bottom. Between the rounds of the heart was a smaller heart blanketed by an upside down moon. Where the rounds met was a tiny silver diamond surrounded by three hearts. "Spirit Sailor Chibi Moon. This is for you Chibi Usa-Chan."
The third had a round purple base with two pink wings jetting out from either side. It had two anatine sticking out supporting a crescent moon. Within the purple circle was a small pink heart with a tiny silver gem. "Batafurai-Chan, this is used to become Spirit Sailor Little Moon."
The final one was a pendant. "Ciran-Kun, I would assume this ones yours. I guess that makes you a Sailor Scout. But it says.. Solar Eclipse." It was a barrage of black, gray and white flames encircling a large circle with a dot in the center.
Tora jumped onto Maroko's shoulders. "Maroko, where's yours?" She looked about. "I do not know." Bata smiled. "Maroko, you're wearing yours!" Maroko picked hers up. "Oh! So I am.Well, this ones for me, myself-kojin."
Maroko's was two crescent moons supporting a pink heart with a black moon lining the bottom. On the roof of the heart was a crescent with a heart on each end and a small black figurine. The center of the large heart had a darker heart of its own surrounded by eight small gems, each in the shape of the astrological symbol of a planet.
Maroko stood up, knocking Tora off her shoulder. "Usagi! I need to speak with Rei Hino, the priestess at the Hino Temple." "She's a friend of mine, I can take you, but why?" Maroko opened the broche and out shot the Spirit Conjurer. "I need to know what this is!"
"I'm not sure what this is Maroko." "Please, can't you find out anything about it Rei-Sempai?" "Well, maybe." Rei placed the Spirit Conjurer down in front of the fire. She closed her eyes and listened to the crackling of the fire. "I'm sorry, but I just can't hear anything." Maroko took the Spirit Conjurer in her hands. Chaos said Rei would know what to do. But she doesn't.
Tora snuck onto the Temple grounds. "Where did Maroko go?" She looked around quickly. "Maybe in there." She poked her head into a small room. "No, just a well." She poked around a few other rooms. "No, this is just a store room." Tora heard the mummer of voices. "That's it." She rushed towards where they had come from.
Tora leapt onto Maroko's head. Maroko screamed and the Spirit Conjurer shot from her hands into the fire. As the Conjurer fell, the fire in its path cleared and disappeared. By the second it had landed on the ground, the fire was out. Maroko slowly picked it up. She turned it around. Small symbols had appeared craved in the side. "What's this?" "They look like music notes." "Do you know anything about music?" "No, but Michiru does! She's sort of a friend of mine." "Michiru. I believe I have met her before. She is a very good violin player." "Yeah, she'll be able to read the notes!" "And I think Batafurai can play the clarinet. That's the same thing. I think."
Her violin played a slow, sweet song. "Please stop that Michiru." Michiru looked up. "Why? What's wrong Haruka?" Haruka shook her head. "Nothing. I'm sorry." There was a knock on the door. "Oh." Michiru put down her violin.
"Oh, hello Usagi. How are you today?" "I'm fine Michiru-sempai! But I wanted to ask you a favor." "Of course." "This is my friend-" Maroko jumped up and smiled. "Now I know I have seen you before! You know Setsuna! You are Kaioh Michiru! You are Sailor Neptune!" Michiru gasped. "Maroko! How would you know that?" Usagi asked.
Maroko smiled. "I've met her before! When I was a baby, I used to follow Setsuna around everywhere! A few times, my mother would let me follow Setsuna to her home where she stayed with Michiru, Haruka and Hotaru!" "You know Setsuna?" Michiru asked. Maroko nodded. "Yeah. Oh, but I'm not from around here." She sighed and looked to the ground. "I'm here hiding. I've traveled threw time like Chibi-Usa and Batafurai. But, in the future, my future, I do know Setsuna, and you and well, all outer Sensei. But I didn't have much of a chance to meet the inner Sensei."
"Well, please come in."
Maroko's gaze fell on the violin lying on the table. "Oh." Maroko curiously picked it up. "I remember hearing this played. I wish I had paid attention long enough to learn." Haruka starred at Maroko. "Who is she?" She whispered to Michiru. "A friend of Usagi's, apparently, she knows us, or will know us. She's been time traveling too." Maroko smiled at Haruka. "Konnichiwa Tenoh Haruka! You are Sailor Uranus, yes?" Haruka nodded. "It is nice to see your past forms!" "So, what did you want Maroko?" Michiru asked. "Oh!" Maroko took out the Spirit Conjurer. "I was wondering if you could read these notes."
Michiru picked up her violin and looked closely at the notes on the conjurer. She shook her head. "There's only a forth of a measure on there. See, only four notes!" Maroko nodded. "Can't you play it anyway?" She slowly played the four complex notes. "Could you show me how to play it on this?" "In the future you're from, did I teach you anything about music?" "Yes ma'am." Maroko raised the Conjurer to her lips and thought a moment. She slowly blew into it, and played back the short song Michiru had played.
"Very good."
"Good bye Michiru! Tell Setsuna and Hotaru I said hello when they get back!" Michiru nodded. "Okay Maroko, take care of yourself. Tell our future selves we say hello." Maroko smiled. "Okay!"
Maroko sat on her bed and held the Spirit Conjurer up. She looked at the full moon and played the song. From the bowl shaped opening, a small hologram of Chaos appeared. He yawned at starred at her. "Ah! MAROKO! THIS SHOULD ONLY BE USED WHEN YOU'RE IN TROUBLE!" "Oh. Sorry." "Promise you'll only use it when you're in trouble." "Okay." "Uncross your fingers." "Okay." "Good night Maroko." "Good night Chaos!" The image disappeared and Maroko uncrossed her toes.
FIN!
