Chapter 21

Back Up

Rini and Luna watched the new Cosmos with agitation. Cosmos looked absolutely pissed and looked ready to kill anything that moved.

"I can't believe you ever kill one of your friends. The both of you at that fact." Cosmos closed her eyes and thought of her next move. She didn't have any except fight fist to fist with them and try to tire her out. Cosmos leaped at her and threw her fist at Rini's and Luna's face, they blocked it but they had missed her other fist going for their stomach. Cosmos made the contact and the force of the blow threw the witch back a few yards away and her butt. They got up and ran fast toward Cosmos; when Rini and Luna were reachable to Cosmos they began to throw punches and kicks.

The last few kicks made contact with her stomach and both of her legs. Cosmos flew back onto the ground, skidding to a stop. The back of her dress tore a little exposing her lower back. Her skin was a dark red and sort of bleeding. Vageta and Piccolo went to help her, but Cosmos whipped around.

"Stay right there do not interfere." said Cosmos. She turned her attention back to Rini and Luna who had been taking the advantage of her distraction and was attacking her. Cosmos blocked the punches and a few of the kicks. She took some of the punches and the kicks but did not fall back this time. Then Rini and Luna extended their nail length and started to scratch at her. One of the claws hit her across the chest. Her dress tore and the jewel flew off. Her chest was now bearing a little more than necessary. (WinkWink. If you read the manga 'Battle Vixens' you'll know what I mean.)

Cosmos looked down at her exposure and smirked. "Very funny and to think there are guys here. Very good Luna, thinking that you're the cat creature here; I'd say it was your idea." Cosmos brushed off her dress and tried to think of a way to cover her.

"Very flattering." said a voice to everyone's right. They all jumped and looked in the direction. There stood the souls of three friendly faces. Uranus was on the left, Neptune on the right and in the middle was Mercury. Cosmos then realized Uranus was the one who spoke, because Neptune and Mercury were giggling.

'Guess she told them.' thought Cosmos.

"Need any back up?" asked Mercury. Cosmos smiled a sigh of relief. She didn't want the help of the guys because she didn't want to see them get hurt and they had figured that out.

"Even with their help they will do you no good." yelled Rini and Luna. Neptune and Mercury looked over at the witch and dropped their smiles.

"We would have thought better of you Rini, but I guess you are nothing but a spoiled little wench who is only after the head of your mother and the throne."

"Shut the hell up Mercury, what would you know about any of this?"

"Uranus." was the only name Mercury gave her. Rini and Luna scowled, she should have figured. Mercury, Neptune and Uranus closed their eyes and then soon their bodies became solid and they were no longer ghosts....well for the time being.

"We will destroy you and you will go to hell." said Uranus walking over to Cosmos with Neptune and Mercury. Uranus stood next to Cosmos on her left and Mercury was on her right while Neptune stood next to Uranus. "Your back up has come. Pluto has allowed us to stay in this form for a little while to help you." whispered Uranus. Cosmos smiled softly at her and took her hand. Cosmos turned back to Rini and Luna.

"Ready to get your ass kicked?"
