Part 3: Strange Day


In the beginning of my…training, my master the Akuma showed me the secret of "the Raging Demon". It was based upon the philosophy of the "Ansatsuken", or the "Murder Fist". It was both a philosophy and a technique, which incorporates the desire for vengeance; Shotokan karate simply serves as the catalyst to achieve this. It's kind of like one of my foe's fighting style. He…she…or WHATEVER that person was, used a style called "Anything Goes" martial arts. He (or "she") uses the techniques of his/her opponents against them. Well, Mr. "Big-shot" tried to use my own technique against me. Silly boy! Only those on the dark path can master the Murder Fist. My opponent is…was…too noble for that. Thus, my opponent's demise was complete. Knowing him, and the way he went on about being a real man, I'll probably see him again…after he gets out of traction, of course!

Heh

Speaking of enemies, one of them has decided to give me a little payback. All I did was to break that Tenchi-guy's legs. And it was a fair fight, too. So now, one of his girl-friends has decided to face me again. So, I guess I'll have to prove my strength yet again.

I have so little time to get anything done, without someone popping up to take a whack out of my hide. Sigh.

Usagi narrowed her eyes, as she got into a crouch.

The cyan-hair girl dove into the ground, just as Usagi leaped out of the way. The cement cracked and buckled.

"You're too slow, dearie," Usagi smirked.

"Why you-!" Ryoko yelled, as she raised her fists. A discharged of energy leapt from her fists, and sailed into Usagi. She blocked the attack, but was set up to take another.

Ryoko teleported behind Usagi and performed a "double-handle axe" on Usagi's head. Usagi had sensed too late that Ryoko was behind her.

"You will pay for what you did to Tenchi!" Ryoko said, as she began to repeatedly kick a downed Usagi.

"You- OOF –must like that guy, huh?" Usagi said. Point of fact, she was more than annoyed rather than hurt. She caught one of Ryoko legs, and turned her position…

"Ah!" Ryoko yelped, as she fell upon the ground. Quickly, Usagi scrambled to put Ryoko in a head-lock. Knowing that her opponent was naturally stronger than her, Usagi applied as much of her energy to her strength as possible. She then placed of her free hands next to Ryoko's head.

"Nighty, night, Ryoko-chan," Usagi whispered, as she began to drain her foe of her energy. The combination of energy draining and the choke-hold was enough to subdue the space pirate.

"Now, what should I do with you?" Usagi mused. Then, she remembered some of the more esoteric lessons she learned from her Master. With a glint in her eye, Usagi picked up Ryoko, and teleported with her…

Unknown to Usagi, Alan had followed his classmate and was in his alien guise. He could easily pass off as a pastel-colored elf.

"Hmmm," Alan mused, as he pondered at what he has just seen. He would have to think about the darkness that was displayed by the mysterious Usagi.

Later, that night…

"What…what are you doing to me?" Ryoko asked. She felt decidedly weak, and couldn't move. At the moment, she was placed in a drum barrel, which was placed in the walls of Usagi's house, in the basement.

"Well, I can't have you interfering with my plans, Ryoko," Usagi said, as she finished her mixtures. While alchemy and herbalism was not high on the Akuma's "curriculum", he did teach it to instill discipline in his student. Regardless, the fighting arts had an importance, so the focus was on that. "However, I'm not the murdering type."

Usagi then sprinkled the powder all over Ryoko, causing her to sneeze. Soon, Ryoko began to feel drowsy.

"Wha-?"

"It's a 'suspension' drug, Ryoko. Supposedly, it will place you in torpor, while keeping you alive."

"You'll never get away with this! I have friends that will find me-!"

"I'm sure that's possible, which I am place wards around your new home. They should hide you just fine. Ta, ta!"

"Wait-!"

With that, Usagi sealed Ryoko in the steel drum. After properly preparing it, Usagi moved the drum into the wall itself. Calmly, Usagi fitted bricks into place, while singing an old Judy Garland song…a song that she had heard when she loved as a child.

"'Somewhere, over the rainbow…'"

When the basement wall was sealed, Usagi applied plaster, dried it with her 'chi', and painted the wall.

"There, that ought to-"

"Usagi, are you down there?" Kenjiro Tsukino yelled.

"I'm coming Daddy," Usagi yelled back, as she hid her equipment and material underneath some tarp. "I was looking for my stuffed cat!"

"Okay, but hurry up to bed. It's getting late!"

"Okay!"

And with that, Usagi went to bed, with a smile plastered on her face.

The next day…

"Do you think she'll be here?" Luna the Cat asked nervously. She couldn't wait to meet her new charge. At the moment, they were waiting at the Cherry Hill Temple.

"Don't worry, Luna," Artemis the Cat replied. "I'm sure Minako knows what she is doing."

Soon, Minako, along with the rest of the Sailor Scouts, is seen, along with fellow classmate Naru Osaka.

"So, what do you guys want?" Naru asked.

"Well, we have someone you should meet," Minako said.

Soon, the girls get into the inner courtyard.

"Well? There's nobody here," Naru replied.

"Actually, there is," said a voice below.

Naru looked down to see Luna.

"Hey, Luna," Naru said cutely. "How are you?"

"I'm fine, thank you," Luna replied.

Naru's eyes went wide.

"You…you can talk?!"

"Of course she can," Artemis the Cat said, as he trotted to Luna and Naru's position.

"What's going on here?" Naru asked.

"How would you like to be the new 'Sailor Moon'?" Luna asked.
