Chapter 12
Duo was in a state of shock, "W-Who are you?" he asked the mysterious blonde goddess in the Sailor suit. The blonde Sailor Scout simply giggled and flipped some of her blonde locks behind her shoulder and smiled.
"I'm Sailor Venus, formally known as 'Sailor V'" grinned the Sailor scout.
Duo thought about what Sailor Venus said, "Sailor V?" he remembered the poster on the arcade window, his eyes then got big as it all made sense now. "You mean you're the famous super hero!" asked Duo.
Sailor Venus nodded, "Yes, well, I was" as she caught herself.
Duo's jaw dropped and he shook his head, "I can't believe this, what would someone like you want something out of me?"
"Easy, you're Shinigami, and that scythe that you carry is powerful throughout the galaxy. Enough to destroy a whole planet if you really concentrate" said Sailor Venus acting like it was no big deal. She took a seat on one of the wooden boxes.
"Why? Why did this happen to me?" asked Duo looking down at the jewelry around his neck holding the cross in his palm.
Artemis then took a stand, "We're not sure yet, but once we find the Silver Imperial Crystal and the Moon Princess, all of our questions will be answered"
"Great, now I have to already put up with me being a Gundam Pilot and yet the Great Destroyer. I thought I was only Shinigami on the battle field" thought Duo as he rolled his eyes.
Sailor Venus then looked to the right and quickly grabbed Duo and pulled him down. "Duck!" she whispered as they both hid behind the wooden box. Duo grunted, "What's the deal?" Duo looked ahead to see Usagi and her friends.
"Hey that's Usagi! What is she doing here?" asked Duo as he watched her from the darken ally.
"Be quite, they'll hear you" whispered Sailor Venus as she tugged Duo's sleeve. They watched from far away.
"She swung from a rope and saved the guy?" asked Ami as she was walking ahead from the group.
"No way, if the Sailor Moon I knew would get tied up in a knot" joked Rei as she looked at Usagi. Usagi grunted, "Cut it out Rei!"
"Rei does have a point, it's totally out of character for the real Sailor Moon to do that" agreed Makoto.
"Who's side are you on anyway!" yelled Usagi as she got up in Makoto's face.
"What's important is that we need to know if she's our friend or enemy" Ami said changing the subject slightly.
"I wonder if she's the fifth Sailor Scout, what do you think Luna?" asked Rei as she turned to look at Luna who was sitting in a construction tube.
"I honestly have no idea girls" blushed Luna having no clue.
"Well if she is the fifth Sailor Scout, she is not getting my name. I was Sailor Moon first, and it's going to stay that way!" demanded Usagi as she stomped her foot.
The rest of the girls including Luna rolled their eyes and they heard a sound of a female screaming from far away. The girls quickly took off to see who was in trouble. Duo and Sailor Venus both watched the girls run straight ahead. Duo quickly jumped to his feet, "Where are they going!"
Sailor Venus stopped him, "We'll wait until they need us" as she rested her left hand on his shoulder. Duo glanced over to the blonde scout and just nodded his head gently and did as he was told.
Once the girls got closer, they saw the mysterious Sailor Scout tied up to some sort of a crane holding her high in the sky as a storm was coming its way to the city. You could hear and see the thunder in the far distance between the grayish purple clouds.
"It's her!" cried out Makoto as she looked up.
"She needs our help!" yelled Usagi as she started to run towards her.
"Wait Usagi! It could be a trap!" snapped Rei as she grabbed Usagi's hand. Usagi turned around and pulled away from her friend.
"I don't care if it is or isn't, I want to know who exactly she is and what's her deal" ordered Usagi. For once the whole team agreed with Usagi and took out their wands and called out;
"Mercury Power! Make-Up"
"Mars Power Make-Up!"
"Jupiter Power Make-Up!"
"Moon Prism Power Make-Up!"
The four girls then transformed into their Sailor outfits and made their way to save the mysterious Sailor Scout.
Quatre knocked on the door of Duo's apartment, Trowa came to answer the door, "Quatre" he calmly greeted.
Quatre walked in and looked around, he saw Heero watching T.V on the couch while Wufei glanced through a magazine in the arm chair. Trowa closed the door behind him and walked up to Quatre, "Where were you guys?"
"You mean Duo isn't back yet?" asked Quatre as he turned around and looked at his friends.
"What do you mean? I thought he was with you" answered Trowa as he took a seat at the table.
"He was, but he said he would meet me back here after he went to take care of some personal business" sighed Quatre as he narrowed his eyes to the ground.
"I'm sure wherever Duo is he's fine." sternly spoke Heero as he kept his eyes on the T.V. Quatre and Trowa both looked over towards him.
"Unless" started Wufei as he turned the page from the magazine, "He ran off to go see that girl again" and closed the magazine gently and set it on his lap.
"Usagi?" asked Quatre with a puzzled look.
That's it for now! I was wondering in your reviews if some of you could answer the following question:
