Hello Minna-chan! How's everyone doing? Okay, okay, there's been a
lot of pressure in the 'let's write somemore' department, so here is
the next installment of "Shadow of the Past". Hope you guys like it.
We'll be getting into more 'action oriented' scenes soon, I
promise.
Again, the disclaimer applies: I don't own Sailor Moon, and
I don't own Dragon Ball (Z,GT). If you sincerely thought I did, then
maybe you aren't as big a Moon fan as you thought you were.
For all those who care, my random musings shall be at the
bottom of the page.
In any case, read on!
Syonara!
The Queen has spoken.
So it is written, so it shall be.
Chapter 4: Jupiter Unmasked
The battle over, Sailor Jupiter, and all those who weren't
injured that bad, helped carry/lead the others back to Goku's house,
and deposited everyone on sofa's, chairs, or the floor, whatever was
more convenient. As soon as everyone was comfortable, or relatively
so, the questions started.
"How did you do that Lita?" asked Goku.
"How could you possibly beat them when we couldn't even scratch
them?" asked Vegita.
"What were those things we were fighting?" asked Chaozu.
"What were those attacks you were throwing?" asked Piccolo.
"Who or what is Sailor Jupiter?" asked Gohan.
"And why do you have to have such a short skirt?" asked ChiChi,
eyeing her niece with a disapproving glance.
Assaulted with questions, Sailor Jupiter held up her hands and
backed up a bit. "Whoa guys, hold on, one question at a time, please!
First of all, Aunt ChiChi, I didn't make this suit, promise. I can't
change it, but I don't mind it at all. Sure it's kind of short, but
have you every tried to side kick a monster in a *long* skirt? Besides,
I think it was really meant to distract the enemy," she said with a
wink. ChiChi sighed, but didn't comment any further. "Now, before I
answer anymore questions, let me at least change out of my suit."
Sailor Jupiter closed her eyes, and concentrated. Within seconds a
warm light bathed her, and her Scout uniform melted away to her tank
top and jeans. She sighed before continuing.
"Now to answer the rest of you questions. I guess I should
answer the easiest question first. *I* am Sailor Jupiter. *What*
Sailor Jupiter is, well that's an entirely different question, and less
easy to answer. I am part of a group of female warriors called the
Sailor Scouts, Sailor Soldiers, or the Sailor Senshi, whichever you
want to call them. Our duty is to protect our Princess and the Earth
from invading forces, meaning outside this universe."
Lita looked around the room and saw everyone was hanging on her
every word. Even Goten and Chibi Trunks were paying attention for
once. They were taking this really well. She continued.
"Now you are probably thinking, why am I Sailor Jupiter? I
don't want to bore you with a long story, but it kind of has to be
done. I will try to make it as short and to the point as possible, but
please keep in mind this is a very true story. Well a long time ago
there was something called the Silver Millennium. It was a time of
peace with all the planets bonding together in a great alliance with
the Moon at the center. The Earth was never really on good terms with
the Moon, but the Prince of the Earth fell in love with the Princess of
the Moon. Everyone thought this was really good because it would unite
the Earth and Moon together. Well, everyone, that is, except for a
person named Beryl. She was pissed because she had a big crush on the
Prince. Beryl, with the help of a great evil force, turned the
Prince's guards evil and started to attack the Moon.
"Sailor Mercury, Sailor Mars, Sailor Venus, and I, known as the
Inner Senshi, were the Princess's guards and protected her and the Moon
as best we could. Although we all fought valiantly, we all fell in
battle, but we protected our Princess and our civilization to our last
breath. The other Sailor Senshi, Sailor Neptune, Sailor Uranus, Sailor
Saturn, and Sailor Pluto, known collectively as the Outer Senshi, also
fell. Eventually, Beryl found the Prince and Princess, and because
they refused to part, killed them both. The Queen of the Moon, who
couldn't bear the thought of her only child dying because she simply
loved a man too much, used the awesome power of the Silver Crystal to
send her soul, and all the other soul's of the Moon Kingdom to the
future on Earth. She erased our memories so we could be happy, but
also sent the means to wake the sleeping Senshi should the need ever
arise. Suffice it to say that we did need to be awakened, and we have
faced a hell of a lot of enemy's since we were wakened about 3 years
ago."
"So what you're telling us is that you are one of these people
who are supposed to protect the Earth?" asked Chaozu.
"Yes."
"So what kind of Powers do you have?" asked Vegita.
"I'll answer that question in a second. First I'll answer the
question I can see in your eyes. No I did not cheat when I kicked your
ass. As you saw, being a Sailor Senshi I have a lot of power. But
being a Sailor Senshi can only enhance what I naturally have. When I
fought you I only used my natural abilities. From what I understand I
can only use my Scout powers in Scout form, although I have not tried
it in my regular form."
Vegita was taken aback that Lita could see through him so easy.
(Hey, come on, it's not really that hard.)
Lita dismissed his surprised look and continued. "I wield the
powers of Lightning, Thunder, and Nature. I am also physically the
strongest of the Inner Senshi. I have a lot of energy attacks that I
have come up with, that I have found can be used in my Scout form and
they are also enhanced at least two fold. As an off note, most of the
innate abilities of a Sailor Senshi are magic and energy combined. The
only reason I was able to defeat these youma's and you weren't, was
because they were immune to your energy attacks, and not to my magical
attacks. All except the last one, which I also took care of. You guys
would probably do pretty well against most youma's."
"Which brings us to our next important question, what the hell
is a youma?" said an until now silent Yamcha.
Lita thought about that question for awhile. "Well, and youma
is a foot soldier of sorts for the enemy. Almost all the evil people
who have attacked the earth have had them in one form or another. Most
youma's are genetically engineered, which means the are programmed for
various things. They can be for gathering energy or other various
items, or can even be henchmen. The ones we fought were a seek and
destroy kind."
Gohan looked admirably at her. "Your seem to have learned a
lot Lita."
Lita smiled at him. "Well yeah. We, and by we I mean the
other scouts and I, have to train almost everyday. It is extremely
taxing on you, but really does help you to become, faster and stronger.
We have fought many kinds of enemies since finding out that who we were
and what our mission was, and we try to figure out as much about them
as possible. And Luna always says, know your enemy."
"Who's Luna," asked a confused Piccolo.
"Oh, she's my friend's cat. She is our resident trainer along
with Artemis." Lita chuckled at the looks on everyone's face.
Lita suddenly sobered. "From what I can gather, that wasn't
just random youma's attacking. I think we have a new enemy on our
hands. I just don't know if I should call in the others or not."
Goten and Chibi Trunks ran up to her. "Don't worry Lita, we
can beat them!" they told her in unison. Lita impulsively reached down
and hugged them both.
"Hey they're right you know," said an excited Tien. "If we
learn more about them, we can beat them. We've have battled worse odds
before."
"Yeah!" Chaozu chimed in. "If we can train together, and learn
from one another, we could do it."
Lita smiled. "I don't know. I suppose I should call my
friends." Lita went into her room, and came back with her communicator.
"I just hope it works from this far away," she muttered to herself.
She punched in a few keys, and then spoke into it. "Ami, Ami
are your there?" she asked. After a couple moments of static a
familiar blue head popped into view.
"Lita? What's wrong?" asked Ami, concerned at why her friend
would use the communicator. She knew that Lita wouldn't use it unless
absolutely necessary. She also saw a lot of people in the background
and Ami's eyebrows raised and she sent an unspoken question.
Lita sighed and she told her friend the whole story. "…and so
I told them all about us. They seem to be taking it really well
though. Anyway, what do you think?"
A few seconds into Lita's story Ami had called the other girls,
so they were all listening in. "Well Lita," began Ami. "I don't think
we could come down there right now."
"Yeah," continued Rei. "We have a slight youma problem here.
Nothing we can't handle, but all the same, we have to take care of it."
"Hi Lita, meet any cute guys there yet?" asked Serena. Rei
said something only Serena could hear, and then Rei and Serena started
arguing and sticking their tongues out.
Ami, Mina, and Lita had sweat drops on their foreheads. "Well
anyway," said Mina. "If we can spare anyone, we'll send them to you.
But can you handle them on your own, at least for now?" she asked
concerned at her friends' safety.
In the background all the guys were cheering and Lita laughed.
"Well, I don't have an exactly normal family. I am sure with the help
of them and my new friends, we can handle the situation."
At the mention of friends and hearing all the male voices, Mina
strained to look around Lita. "That's great Lita. We'll talk to the
Outers tomorrow and see if they can come help or something. Hey,
remember to save some guys for me though, ok?" Lita laughed and agreed,
and Ami's face reappeared.
"What do you know about the enemy so far Lita?" she asked.
"Well, all I know is that they sent really low class youma's,
so I think this was a scouting mission. One of them said something
about 'Dark Prince' or something." Before she could say anything else,
a familiar cat face popped into view.
"Lita, did they say 'The Prince of Darkness' by any chance,"
the feline asked urgently.
"Yeah Luna, that was it. They said, 'We are the minions of the
Prince of Darkness'. Why though Luna?"
Luna paled, which is not an easy thing to do for a cat. "Lita,
listen closely. The Prince of Darkness is one of the worst enemies you
could ever come up against. I'm sorry, you'll have to handle it for
the moment, but I will send someone. Do you think seriously think you
can handle it?"
"We can handle it Luna," said Lita, her voice full of
conviction. "My uncle and his friends are very strong. I would trust
them with my life in a fight."
"Well Lita, you just may have to do that. I have to go, but I
promise to let you know who we will send and when. Until then, try not
to directly cross swords with the Prince."
"Okay Luna, I'll talk to you guys later, bye."
After everyone had said good bye, she put away her
communicator. "Well guys, I guess it's just us for now," she said in a
worried tone.
"Don't worry Lita," said Gohan as he walked over to her. "We
can do it."
Lita looked at him and sighed. Then she saw a silver flash out
of the corner of her eye. She saw Trunks, sharpening a really big
sword.
Trunks looked Lita straight in the eye and smiled. "Whatever
they throw at us, we can take. I know we can." Everyone let up a cheer
and Lita smiled, if ever so slightly.
"Yes, I think if anyone can do it, we can," she said. 'But
somehow I know it isn't going to be easy. Not by a long shot,' she
thought to herself.
Little did she know that she was very right. Very soon she,
the Senshi, and her new found friends would embark upon a journey that
none of them could foresee. Let us just hope the can handle what is to
come, for their sake, and ours.
