A/N *hiding* Dont hurt me! I thought I could get a certain one-shot up by the deadline I set for myself.....but I didn't. So, I decided to put it on hold for a little while and get back to the big picture. This story that is. I promise to work on the other project a little at a time and I will someday get it up. Someday. Anyway chapter 80, here we go!
RRs:
Hart: Gin is a game you play with regular playing cards. I don't know how to play it. And yes, there will be some small Rini peices in the next chapters; she plays a bigger role than I'm letting on right now.....maybe.
Umi: Thanx. I hope you had a nice holiday season too. Mine was fine I suppose, I got paid alot of money at work (I worked WAY too much and got WAY behind on writing.....but I'm sure you could tell that)
D.g. and Crew: Winter break is fun! *throws snowballs everywhere, "accidently" hitting Bob* Hehe!
Sailor Galaxy: o.O Snake?! Where?! KILL IT!!! *runs away* AHHHH!!!!
Disclaimer: Yep. Um. Sure. Whatever.
Chapter 80: That is one BIG dragon!
Rini quickened her pace to match her father's hurried one. "What happened Papa? Where's Sissy?"
"I do not really know, Rini. After she sent you to Sailor Pluto, she went into battle with the Negamoon. During her battle, she summoned the Star Crystal to fend off a direct attack against us. In the aftermath of the explosion, her, and the stars were no where to be found. The enemy was left vulnerable and their main weapon destoryed, so they fled. But we have not found any of the stars amoungst the remains of the battlefield."
Tears weld up in the small girl's eyes. "But. Sissy. She....she's alive right? She has to be!"
Endymnion smiled down at the child. It was a forced smile; only to try to stop the tears that flowed down her small cheeks. "Yes. She is alive. A while ago; just before I awoke from the sleep I was put under; I dreamt that I spoke to her. I have a feeling she is alive. But." He said to the trembling girl. The truth had to be known to her, in case the worst was to happen. "I do not know her whereabouts. I have not been able to contact her, nor the Stars. She is beyond our reach: and we may never see her again."
Thats when Rini broke down, and everything around her went black as she fainted.
********************************************************************************************
Rose looked awestruck at the group of seven almost identical balls on the cement ground before her. The entire DBZ group had gathered, they hoped to wish the girl and her small cat a save voyage to her home dimenstion.
Trunks stood as close to the girl as he felt he could. He knew that this could very well be the last time he ever saw the girl; and he wanted every minute to count. Too bad she seemed to not notice him...
The black-haired girl sighed inwardly. She knew this would probably the last time she and Trunks ever met again, yet he seemed so distant. 'Its for the best.' She thought depressingly. 'Let him get on with his life I suppose.' She looked up as Goku approached the dragon balls with a 'lets go get 'im' grin. "You guys ready?"
David stood on the ground beside Rose's feet. At the news that the dragon balls had succuessfully been gathered, all of the people David and Rose had met in this dimenstion gathered here: on kami's lookout.
The entire group remained silent as they watched Goku aproach the seven orbs on the ground. After giving the spectators a thumbs-up he stretched his arms over the flashing balls and recited the words that would awaken the sleeping dragon. "Now, eternal dragon, I command you to awaken from your slumber and grant my two wishes. Awaken as I say your name...Shenron!"
Rose gasped inwardly as the seven balls dulled momentally before exploding in a giant flash of orange light. She shielded her eyes as the intense beam seemed to shoot into the air and regain a shape. In mere seconds a gargantuan serpant-like dragon towered over them.
On the ground, David leapt quickly behind Rose's feet. It was all he could do to ignore his feline instints to puff up his fur and hiss.
Trunks smirked at the suprised expression on the girl's face beside him. Quietly he knelt down and whispered in her ear. "When you heard 'dragon balls' what were you expecting?"
"Not this. Definantly NOT this." She replied.
"Why have you summoned me?" The dragon demanded. "Make your two wishes so I may return to my slumber."
Rose's mouth dropped. "It even talks!"
Far above her, a sweatdrop formed on the side of Shenron's head. "Uh....MY pateince is wearing thin! Make your wishes known at once!"
Goku smiled up at the dragon and motioned towards Rose and David behind. "Shenron, this is Rose and the cat is David. They came from a dimenstion different from our own and from the world of the dead. Do you think you can send them back to the world they came from for us, please?"
Shenron's eyes glowed faintly before he spoke. "I will try."
In her chest, Rose's heart thundered. 'This is it...am I going home?' Her breath caught in her throat as she heard the dragon's answer.
"I am sorry." He said as his eyes regained thier normal color. "But crossing alternate universes is beyond my power."
Around her, it seemed her entire world fell apart. Instantly, unshedable tears leap to the princess' eyes. She looked to her feet, unable to look anyone in the eye. In the distance (to her) she listened to Goku's next words.
"Well, this girl has freinds, comrades, from the same world as her; but we don't know where they are. Could you bring them here?"
Trunks looked at the girl as a small silence came from the dragon; followed by the answer: "That is too beyond my power. Is there anything else you care to ask for?"
Rose drew a raggad breath. Her mind was all in peices. 'Is it true? Will I never see the others, or my home again?'
David looked worriedly at the maiden above him when an idea struck him. He jumped to Goku's side and addressed the dragon. "Do you know of a way to get us back to our world then?"
"I do not, but perhaps you should try leaving the way you came. Is there anything else?"
Goku sighed. This was going to be harder than they all thought. "No, Shenron. Thanks anyway though. We'll save the two wishes for another day."
"Very well." With a simalar flash of light, the dragon shrunk into the seven orbs, which remained on the ground: since the wishes were not used, the balls would stay useable and together.
Rose shuttered where she stood. She felt like her life had just ended, yet she was still breathing. Unshed tears clouded her eyes and she was tempted to just stand there until everyone left her alone. But a hand on her shoulder brought her back to the truth. Glancing up at Trunks, she leaned on him as he hugged her close and cried for what seemed like hours.
********************************************************************************************
Sailor Mars tensed as she sensed a strange new force approach them quickly. "Someone's coming!" She said.
Venus looked in the direction Mars directed. "It may be the others, but it very well not be. Everyone be on guard!"
The Inuyasha group readied thier weapons as the Yu-gi-oh gang backed away slightly. (Tristan and Joey not really agreeing with this, but Inuyasha had some say in the matter as he pushed them aside.)
Everyone tensed as a dark group neared them. It was only when a familar call reached the ears of the two Sailor Stars.
"Mercury! Jupiter!" Mars shouted, "It you!"
Sailor Jupiter, who was being carried by Jean, stopped in front of Mars. "Of course, who were you expecting, Santa Claus?"
Venus giggled before breaking out in tears. "Its great to see you guys again!"
Mercury nodded before looking around the group. "Where's the Princess?"
"You mean..." Mars breathed, wide eyed.
"She's not here?!" Jupiter finished as she watched the two strange groups look each other over.
"But where could she be?" Venus said, paniacing.
Mercury whipped out her visor and computer. "I will try contacting her, but it might take some time..."
The others nodded, and remained quiet as the light tappings of the keys joined the sounds of the slight conversation with the other groups behind them.
********************************************************************************************
Trunks sat with the brokenhearted Rose on the edge of Kami's lookout. The others had left, gone back to thier homes or whereever. He was grateful for this, however, as he watched the girl unpin the broach on the front of her shirt and gaze at it mournfully. "Hey, cheer up! I'm sure we will think of something!"
But Rose seemed to not hear him, she was competely tuned out to the outside world. Just like when the Negamoon attacked her home those months ago...she felt nothing but her own pain in her heart.
With sorrowful eyes, she gazed at the peice of jewelry in her palm. Thanks to this...her family and freinds were in danger....for half a second she considered flinging it right off the tower; as far away from her reach as possible. But she would not....no, could not do that she knew. She was the one responsible for getting herself and her freinds in this situation, and she would get them out. And she could not do it without this pin.
Taking a deep breath, she opened the door of the locket and looked at the single small peice of the star crystal. It immediatly made her feel worse. 'Amanda, Marron, Rachel, Laura...' she thought as tears flooded her vision. 'I wish you were here...' A single tear dropped from her eye and as it splashed onto the shard, it began to glow a bright violet in the gasping girl's hands. "What's going on?"
********************************************************************************************
Mercury held her head down as she solemly shook her head. The others, even the more sympathtic members of the other smaller dimenstional groups bent down thier heads. "I...don't know...."
"I wonder....is she alright?" Venus said worried, "I mean, we haven't heard from her....since....she used the crystal...."
"Don't talk like that! Of course she is fine!" Jupiter said, releasing her anxiety in the form of grumpiness.
But it was Sailor Mars that noticed it. It started as a faint feeling, then the feeling seemed to multiply all at once, like her senses were barmarded by this strange aura. "Uh...guys...."
The entire group stopped and looked expectantly at the miko, who had that look in her eyes again. "You feel something?"
Then from the four girl's palms, four shining beams of mulicolored light exploded upward, as each of the stars looked, they saw that the energy came from the single star crystal peice in thier possession. "What's going on?!"
A huge pillar of light shot up from the center of the four smaller beams, as the stars found they were in a sort of circle pattern. They watched, awestruck as the pure white light expanded around them, and reached to the farthest person behind them; Hiei, who didn't like these 'tender moments.'
And then, as soon as it began, it ended in complete darkness: taking the dimenstion hoppers to another world.
********************************************************************************************
"Lord Bob! Lord Bob!" Four figures called as they hastily ran to thier lord's chamber. Without even knocking, they barged in.
"WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS?!" Bob roared, as he quickly hid his tea set and 'tea party goers.'
"Lord Bob! This is urgent!" They cried.
"Yes! It seems the Stars are here!"
"We just detected the rip in the diminstional barrier, and they touched down seconds ago!"
Bob was furious. "WELL, WHY ARE YOU STILL STANDING THERE?! IF THEY CONTACT ROSE, THEN SHE'LL COME CLOSER TO BECOMING STRONGER THAN EVEN ME!!! GO DESTROY THEM!!! NOW!!!"
The four shadowy figures shook as they bowed. "Yes....Lord Bob."
********************************************************************************************
In a wide and very-much-deserted plain, a huge group of people climbed shakily to thier feet.
"Ow...anyone get the number of that bus?" Joey asked, holding his head.
"I didn't get its number, but I think its doing laps in my head!" Kirt added.
"Shut up ya wimps!" Logan snarled. "I gotta headache over here!"
The four Stars got to thier feet and immediatly noticed two things: they had detransformed, and the jewel fragments were no where to be found.
But it was Kagome who saw the most signaficant change, as she gazed wide-eyed at her half-demon freind...who was no longer a half demon.... "Inuyasha!"
"What is it?" He asked more gently than normal.
Miroku and Sango noticed it too, and just pointed back at him. "You're human."
"WHAT?!"
Ends chapter 80
A/N. o.o Dang. That took me....two weeks. *horrified look* But, it WAS longer than normal...so...don't hurt me?
Oh yea! Don't forget guys, Monday January 12th is Rose's birthday!
Its also MY BIRTHDAY!! PARTY!!!
I'm going to be 21, finally! (don't act it sometimes, do I?)
Anyway, when I talk to you guys next....I'LL BE A LEGAL ADULT!!! (well, physically, I don't know about mentally) LOL
Please review! That would be the best Bday present I could ask for!
Next time: Rose and the others are all in the same dimenstion finally, but can they find each other before Bob's army divides them forever? And what about Inuyasha's problem? With more enemies on the way, can he hold his own?
