Episode Five: Technical No-lose Treatment
Lita
"What's the Technical No-lose Treatment again, Ace?"
"Well, Lita, the TNT is like what you all do. We protect people. So far it's been about the life insurance and the supernatural. It's a bunch of baloney, the supernatural. A lot of ghosts and crop circles."
"That's crazy," said Amy.
We were at Ace's apartment. Me, Amy, Amara, and Michelle were there waiting for Mina, Raye, and Serena. Serena suggested that we have our study group at Ace's place today. Leave it to Serena to suggest something that deals with a cute guy. But, we can't complain; it's a good way to get to know him.
Ace was telling us about his job while we waited for them. Ace is a cop, a detective, and an insurance agent. But what tops it off is the skills with cards. He had shown us three card tricks sense we got here. None of us can figure them out.
"Amara, what are you thinking about?"
"Oh, nothing, Ace."
"You've been real quiet."
"I noticed that too," said Amy. "Anything wrong?"
"It's nothing."
Assassin
Bombs! This apartment has bombs! I've fallen in love with bombs! My body starts to form.
"So tonight's target is the bank," said a male's voice in the room.
"Yes," replied a woman's voice. "We'll brake into the bank and set up the charges. We'll have fifteen minutes to broke into the safe, grab the money and get out. After that, the whole place blows. . ."
". . .leaving our signature trademark behind," finished the male.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhh!"
The girl saw me, but the guy didn't get a chance to. He was dead in no time. I broke his neck and quickly attacked the girl. My hot fingertips sent her to Master at once.
Mina
"Don't you think we should get going, Mina?" Raye asked me.
"Oh, come on, let's spend time together!"
"We have to go study with the others."
"Oh! If you like studying so much then maybe you and Amy are good for each other!"
"Hey! I never said that!"
"You implied that," I said playfully.
"Oh, come on! You know that I love you!"
In my most softest, sexiest voice, as I looked deeply into her eyes with my puppy-dog eyes, I said, "Proof it."
"What do you want?"
"How about 2,000 yen (about $20)?
"How about I give you a kiss and call it even?"
"I guess that can work," I said with a smile.
We were at Raye's place, I've been spending most of my time there since we started going out. We walked from school together today. She wanted to change before we went to Ace's place. I, on the other hand, had different plans.
Raye kissed me alright, but she just can't get enough. I guess my charm didn't leave me; I've just been using it on the wrong people. Our kiss felt the same as the first, wonderful. What surprised me was that she started to reach up my shirt so quickly. Her hand on my bra felt so right. I started to unbutton her shirt as she undid mine.
There was an explosion outside and we broke apart right away. We both knew it was an enemy, and we both knew that if this keeps up we won't be able to go farther. But we have a job to do. She looked at me and I nodded in acknowledgement.
"Mars Crystal Power!"
"Venus Crystal Power!"
Assistant
"Master, Bomb has started her assault."
"Excellent. When she dies start with stage two."
Serena
"Sorry, I'm late! I was checking on Darian." As soon as I said this, Ace's phone went off.
"Excuse me." He walked out.
"What I miss?"
"Everything about Ace," said Umara.
"Shoot." Then Ace walked back in.
"Trouble!"
Sailor Venus
The assassin has bombs everywhere. She even has a bomb bra. . .or are those her breasts? The blast was nearby. We got there too late to safe a girl (at least we know not to touch her hands). She's too strong for us. But the others got there in time.
"Hold it right there!"
"Sorry, I'm in a rush, but don't get to 'fussed' up."
Sailor Moon
We didn't realize she had set a bomb near us. We were blown away.
"Now for another capture!" She dashed for Sailor Mars.
Ace throw a card that cut her leg. She fell over her and tumbled away. I got back to my feet.
"Spiral Heart. . ."
"Too slow!" She throw a bomb at me. I jumped out of the way but the blast still got me.
She dashed at Sailor Mars again.
"Evil Spirit. . .Be gone!" Mars got her in time. The enemy froze to the spot. The assassin started to fall forward towards Mars. "Oh, shit." She tripped.
"Venus Love Chain Encircle!" Venus was pulling Mars away, but several things happened at once. Jupiter sent an attack at the assassin at the same time as Neptune and Uranus did.
I don't know how it happened, and I wish I had done more, but assassin got her foot. Mars disappear at once. Venus cried out and started crying. I think we all were. Ace, however, didn't. He pulled out a card and throw it right at the assassin's neck. As soon as the card hit her, she became a cube; then shattered.
I walked Venus back to Raye's place as Jupiter converted Mercury and Uranus converted Neptune. Ace stood at the spot where the assassin was. I'm not sure but I thin I heard him say, "We'll get you back."
Assistent
"Master, Bomb got three girls and one is a sailor scout!"
"Good. I believe the sailor scouts are the princesses I am after. Continue the good work." click
I set down the phone. "Will do."
"Who are you? And why are you after these girls!" shouted the sailor scout.
Michelle
Umara and I were back at our place. We were discussing about Raye. We didn't know what to do, but we knew something bad was going to happen today. Umara had sensed it earlier while at Ace's place. Then the was a knock on the door.
"I'll get it," I said. I opened the door to find Ace there with a duffel bag in his hand.
"I just got a call from my assistant telling me that the TNT just went bankrupt. Then I was kicked out of my place."
"What happened?"
"Company was suppose to pay for it but they weren't. They just didn't have the money."
"Well, you're welcome to stay with us as long as you like."
"Thanks, Michelle. I really need the company now, with Raye getting captured and everything. I feel I could have prevented it."
"Stop blaming yourself. We all tried to stop it, but it happened anyway. . . . . .come on in. I'll make you something to eat."
