Your number one stop for going insane...or sane...which ever applies to you...

Konnichiwa minna-san! That's Japanese for Hello Everyone! I give you the next chapter of the story!

Now, no ramblings, just on with the chapter!

Sailor Moon and all related characters aren't mine. I do own the plot, Sky/Kaze, the villians, the personality of Reno, and some other characters that'll show up later.

I'd also like to say that I'm making Saturn about two years younger than Usagi and the others. You'll find out why in the third part of the series...muahahahahahahahaha...er...moving on...

Last time on Macgyver...when did we get to Macgyver?...

Last time on Eternal Senshi II...

"I know what you mean," she said. "So…where do we go from here?"

He looked into her eyes. "I leave that up to you," he said.

"Why don't we…wait and see what develops…if anything develops?" she suggested hesitantly.

Sky nodded. "That sounds reasonable," he agreed.

Usagi stretched as she, Seiya, and Minako finished climbing the steps to the Hikawa Shrine. "So Sky gets out today?" Seiya asked, his hands behind his head.

"He got out two days after he woke up," Minako said.

"And that was almost five days ago," Usagi added.

"At least there haven't been anymore Daetamashii attacks since," Seiya said.

A roar sounded behind them and they turned. Minako and Usagi glared at the Starlight. "You just had to say it, didn't you?" Minako grumbled.

A man with wild dark red hair appeared next to the Shadow Soul. "Get the man's soul," he ordered.

"Yes master…" the creature growled. The red haired man leaned against a nearby tree. He watched as the Shadow Soul stomped closer and closer to the three.

"Get out of here," Seiya hissed.

"Demo…" Usagi said. (But)

"Come on!" Minako exclaimed, grabbing Usagi's wrist. She pulled the Princess into the trees. "Minna! There's a Daetamashii at the Hikawa Shrine entrance!" she yelled into her communicator. She flipped it close and looked at Usagi who nodded. "Venus Crystal Power! Make UP!"

"Moon Eternal! Make UP!"

"You sure you're feeling okay?" Ami asked.

Sky sighed. "For the millionth time Ami, I swear I'm fine."

"I don't think you realize how close you were to dying is all," she said.

"I do," he replied. "But I'm fine now. Hotaru healed enough of my ribs to just make them a bit tender."

"I'm sorry, it's just…" she began.

"You worry," he finished. He smiled, his hands in his jacket pockets. "That's one of the things I like about you. You care for others. And you're cute when you worry," he added with a wink.

Ami blushed. "Flatterer," she murmured.

Sky was about to grin wider when the wind suddenly shifted. His eyes narrowed and he began looking around. As he did so Ami's communicator went off. "Minna! There's a Daetamashii at the Hikawa Shrine entrance!" Minako's voice yelled.

Ami looked at Sky. "Let's go," he said.

"Demo…" she began.

"I'm going one way or another," he said, cutting her off. "So are you coming?"

Ami smiled. "Fine. But if you get hurt, don't blame it on me."

"Fair enough. Let's go," he said. The two took off running towards the shrine.

Seiya screamed in pain as a white orb was removed from him. The red haired man grabbed it and looked at it. "Shimatta…" he growled in frustration.

"Stop right there!" a voice yelled. "For attacking three innocent people I won't forgive you! The soldier of love and justice in a pretty sailor suit! Sailor Moon!"

"And Sailor Venus!"

"In the name of the moon…"

"We shall punish you!"

"That I doubt. Daetamashii! Kill them!" the man yelled.

"Sky Sword Blaster!" a voice shouted.

The red haired man leapt clear of the attack, dropping the orb to the ground. "Who dares?" he bellowed.

"Hailing from the planet of wind and sky, I am Kaze, Guardian of Uranus!" Kaze dove from nowhere and grabbed the orb. He rolled to knees and skidded by Seiya's side. He placed the orb over Seiya and it merged back into the Starlight.

Seiya groaned and came to. "What happened?"

"You passed out like a baby," Kaze grinned. "Now get to safety little man."

"We'll see who's little," Seiya grumbled but ran off.

The smile on Kaze's face vanished and he rose to his feet and faced the stranger. "Who are you?" he demanded.

"My name is Akuma. You all shall suffer when my master rises and burns this planet to ash," he snarled. He vanished into the shadows.

"You sure you're up for this?" Moon asked Kaze. "I mean, there are only three, maybe four of us."

"You mean four, maybe five," he corrected.

"Nani?" Venus and Moon asked.

"Star Serious Laser!" Fighter yelled, leaping into view. The attack barely phased the Shadow Soul.

"This could be bad…" Venus murmured.

"Shine Snow Illusion!" a voice yelled. The four turned and saw Mercury standing there, the jewel on her front bow decorated with white wings. Her tiara now had a blue image of the symbol of Mercury instead of the blue gem that had been there before. The star on her choker had also been replaced by a blue symbol of Mercury. The blue skirt around her waist was now over a light blue skirt and gold lined the band where the white top met the skirt.

"What…what…happened to…" Moon whispered.

The Daetamashii froze in place as the rest of the Senshi ran up. "M…Mercury!" Mars exclaimed.

The Daetamashii began to break free from the ice. Kaze saw what was happening and pulled his sword free. "Sky Sword Hurricane!" he yelled. The attack slammed into the Shadow Soul and killed it. The Guardian expertly spun his sword and sheathed it.

"Does someone want to explain what the hell is going on?" Fighter asked.

Akuma knelt down in front of a stone throne. "My Lord," he said respectfully.

"You have done nothing but fail me thus far Akuma," the shadowy figure with red eyes sneered. "Now, there is another Eternal Senshi. What have you to say for yourself?" Akuma remained silent. "Kotaeru," the Lord ordered. Akuma still stayed silent. "KOTAERU!" the figure roared. (Answer)

"It is true that the Senshi are powerful," Akuma finally said. "But there is a way we can persuade them to join us."

"They'll never join us," a new voice scoffed. A figure with spiked orange hair appeared dressed completely in black. His fiery orange eyes glared spitefully at Akuma. "Persuasion or otherwise."

"Oh but there is Akurei," Akuma smirked. "I know who one of the Eternal Senshi are. All that needs to be done is to capture her. We then simply force her to transform. When she does, she is opened to receiving the energy. We simply replace the energy she is use to with dark energy."

The Lord began laughing. It was a deep, booming laugh. "Perfect Akuma. We make the Senshi fight amongst themselves and in the process, convert more."

"We will have to discover the identities of the others. By corrupting them, their memories of the time before will be erased," Akuma added.

"An acceptable loss," the Lord said. "Do not fail me Akuma." Akuma bowed and vanished.

"I'm surprised you never told your friends about gaining Eternal power," Sky said as he and Ami walked down the street.

She looked down. "I just…I wanted you to be there when I told them. I don't know why, I just did."

He nodded. "Understandable."

"Isn't this a cute picture," a cold voice sneered.

The pair whirled around. "You!" Sky exclaimed.

Akuma smiled. "I've no interest in you," he muttered. He held out his hand and black lightening danced around Sky's body. He fell to the ground, writhing in pain.

"Stop it!" Ami yelled.

"You're the one I want anyway," Akuma said.

"Nani?" Ami asked. (What)

Akuma blurred in and grabbed Ami from behind. "You're coming with me," he said in her ear. He stepped back into the shadows and vanished.

Ami looked around as they reappeared in a large cavern. Akuma shoved Ami forward. She stumbled forward and turned. "What do you want with me?" she demanded with more bravery than she felt.

"To destroy you…Eternal Sailor Mercury."

"Who says I'm Mercury?" she asked.

"I saw you transform," he replied.

Ami sighed in resolution. "I suppose I have no choice then," she said. "Mercury Eternal! Make UP!"

"Yes!" Akuma exclaimed. His left hand shot out and dark energy engulfed Ami. Her face contorted in pain and she fell to her knees, her arms locked by her sides.

A scream escaped her throat. "SKY!"

"Ami!" Sky exclaimed, bolting upright in bed.

"Whoa, take it easy," a voice said. "You've been out for a few hours."

"Hotaru…" Sky said, rubbing his head. "Where's Ami?"

"We were hoping you could tell us," Setsuna said. "We found you lying on the street unconscious."

Flashes appeared in Sky's mind. He shut his eyes and shook his head. "I can't remember," he said.

"Perhaps it will come in time," Setsuna said.

"Maybe," he agreed. He got out of the bed and stretched. "I'm gonna go look for Ami," he said.

"The others are out looking as well. We tried the communicator, but we haven't gotten through," Hotaru said.

Sky nodded and slung on his jacket. He walked out and headed down the street. He continued walking as memories continued to appear in his mind…

Flash…"Isn't this a cute picture," a cold voice sneered.

The pair whirled around. "You!" Sky exclaimed.

Akuma smiled. "I've no interest in you," he muttered. He held out his hand and black lightening danced around Sky's body. The Guardian fell to the ground, writhing in pain.

"Stop it!" Ami yelled.

"You're the one I want anyway," Akuma said.

"Nani?" Ami asked.

Akuma blurred in and grabbed Ami from behind. "You're coming with me," he said in her ear. He stepped back into the shadows and vanished.

Sky stopped walking, his eyes wide. "Iie…it…they took her!" he exclaimed. His cell phone rang and he pulled it out and flipped it open. "Moshimoshi?"

"We need help! Three Daetamashii just showed up in the shopping district!" Haruka's voice said.

"On my way," he said. He hung up and pocketed his phone. "I have a really bad feeling," he murmured. He turned and ran towards the Tenth Street Shopping District.

"Space Turbulence!" Uranus yelled. The attack slammed into one of the Shadow Souls and destroyed it.

"Jupiter Oak Evolution!"

"Venus Love and Beauty Shock!"

"Mars Flame Sniper!"

"Submarine Reflection!"

"Dead Scream…" The five attacks slammed into another Daetamashii and destroyed it.

"Star Serious Laser!"

"Silver Moon! Crystal Power Kiss!" The two attacks hit the final Daetamashii and greatly weakened it.

"Space Sword Blaster!" Uranus yelled, destroying the Shadow Soul. "Okay…that was almost easy."

"Ever get the feeling we're being watched?" Fighter asked.

"Very good Sailor Senshi," a voice sneered. A figure slowly walked into view.

"Ma…masaka…" Jupiter breathed. (Imp...Impossible)

"No…" Moon whispered.

"Ready to die Sailor Senshi?" the figure demanded.

"Mercury, what happened to you?" Moon asked.

"I am Dark Eternal Mercury," she snarled, stepping into view. She wore her sailor fuku, except black tribal designs decorated her boots and her front bow. Her tiara was also decorated with black tribal designs. Her two skirts were darker in color and her eyes were cold. (A/N: Her outfit is based off of the Dark Mercury fuku from PGSM)

"Mercury…what happened to you?" Pluto asked.

"Nothing," she said. She held up her hand and an ice sword appeared in her hand (A/N: The sword is from Dark Mercury in PGSM too). She pointed it at the Senshi, a cold smile on her face. "Die!" she shouted and charged at her former friends.

"Sky Sword Blaster!" a voice yelled. The attack hit Mercury and forced her back. Kaze landed between Mercury and the Senshi. "Mercury…" he whispered.

"Don't hurt her!" Moon yelled.

"You won't," Mercury smirked. "You'll pay for that Guardian."

"I won't fight you," he said, sheathing his sword.

"Then you'll die," she snapped.

"Fine. I don't want to be in a world where I have to fight you," he said.

"Weakling," she scoffed.

"That's enough Mercury," a voice said. Akuma appeared. "You can either surrender and join us, or you will die," he informed the others. With a wave of his hand he and Mercury disappeared.

Kaze bowed his head, tears flowing from his eyes. Rain began to fall, slowly at first but it began picking up until it was a downpour. He raised his head, the rain mixing with his tears. "IIE!" he bellowed. He fell to his knees and slammed his fists into the pavement, cracking it. (NO)

Geez...Uranus and Neptune went evil in the first part of this story and now Mercury's gone to the Dark Side...doncha love it? I do.

Now, be kind and review. Reviews make me happy and update sooner. I still have plot pudding for those who want it...
