The Fight for Crystal Tokyo
Thanks for the reviews. Richforce, you're a genius. LilBlueFairy, thank you so much and I've taken your suggestions into consideration. To Krystallina; someone has to recognize those inconsistencies so now I'm going to be a little more careful... unless I can get away with it :D. Enjoy!
Chapter 5
Moon Tiara Action...
The next morning in King Endymion's control room, the Senshi sat reunited (minus Sailor Mars) in the midst of the king, queen, and two of generals.
"There must be something up if the four of you have returned." Sailor Jupiter announced getting the meeting underway.
Sailor Saturn nodded. "We have all felt, at one time or another, a presence that could prove threatening to Crystal Tokyo."
"In fact, since the birth of Small Lady we have felt this presence." Sailor Pluto added.
"Sailor Pluto, do you think you've felt this presence before?" Sailor Mercury asked.
Sailor Pluto shook her head. "It doesn't feel the same as the Black Moon Family if that is what you're thinking."
"Well at least Sailor Mercury isn't as rusty as most of us." Sailor Uranus smiled making Mercury blush.
"Yes," Sailor Neptune agreed. "Her deductive reasoning skills are still... have you just admitted that you're rusty?"
Everyone began to giggle. Sailor Uranus closed her eyes and smirked. Shaking her head at the statement she looked into Sailor Neptune's eyes and said, "I haven't lost my touch in other areas of my life."
The entire room developed sweat drops as the two lovingly gazed into each other's eyes.
"Has the Black Moon Family begun their attack?" Serenity asked taking hold of Endymion's hand. "Who's leading it now, now that Dimando and Wiseman have been defeated?"
"It's not the Black Moon Family, Serenity-sama," a woman was heard saying. "I told you not to worry about them." Eyes turned to see Sailor Mars standing in the doorway with Artemis and Luna.
"Sailor Mars!" everyone exclaimed.
Serenity tipped her head to the side, smiled at her friend's joke, and beckoned her to take a seat. Artemis and Luna followed and sat in the two cat-chairs that were especially made for them. The seats were raised higher than the human chairs so that the cats could be seen and heard.
"Then who is it, Sailor Mars?" Serenity asked.
"Well, why I was fighting the new enemy," Sailor Mercury began. "They called themselves Cannon-Blasters and that they were apart of the Kin of the Black Crystal."
"Yeah I heard that too!" Sailor Jupiter exclaimed out of turn. "The enemy in Point 4 called themselves Fire-Breathers and when Sailor Neptune, Tuxedo Kometto, and I defeated them, there was a broken flame thrower and a small orb in front of them."
"My enemies had super-strength... they called themselves Tetsu-Fighters and they had orbs too...but they didn't drop any weapons like flame-throwers or cannons when they were defeated."
"The only mistake I made was not bringing back an orb for analysis." Sailor Mercury said.
"We can't beat ourselves up on that," Tuxedo Asteroid pointed out. "It's a new enemy."
"Right," Luna added. "We must find out what the Kin of the Black Crystal wants with our beautiful city."
"...Destruction." Sailor Mars said silently. "Whatever they want will bring destruction." Sailor Mars began remembering all of the visions she had seen. She recalled the vision of the Inner Senshi being defeated when trying to create a shield around the Crystal Palace. "In the end... The Silver Crystal will lose its shine and the palace will collapse with Crystal Tokyo along with it." The room was silent. Serenity squeezed Endymion's hand as she too could see images of the Crystal Palace falling to a fault. It was almost as if she was in Mars's head.
"But these visions do not have to come true." Serenity said sternly. "We've seen many enemies minna-san and this one is no different. Evil would like to see the good and the peace created fall and cease, but we won't let that happen. Not as long as we're here."
Sailor Venus was the first to breathe aloud. "I'm ready to do whatever it takes, Serenity-sama, for the good of our king and queen, kingdom, and world."
"Me too." Sailor Mars agreed.
"Me too... I'm there..." Sailor Mercury and Sailor Jupiter added.
"Endymion-sama we're ready and willing to serve you in anyway possible." Tuxedo Kometto said on the behalf of earth's generals.
"Speaking of which, Tuxedo Star and Tuxedo Sun, has anyone seen or heard from them? I haven't been in contact with them since the mission I put them on last evening."
"Did he come home Minako-chan?" Serenity asked.
Minako shook her head. "I... I just thought it would be a long mission. Where was he sent, Endymion?"
"To the outskirts of Crystal Tokyo, to check on a disturbance... he could've been ambushed by the Kin of the Black Crystal."
Sailor Venus gasped. "It's alright Sailor Venus, they'll be alright." Artemis reassured her. Turning to the king, Artemis asked, "Endymion-sama where do you think they will strike next?"
Suddenly behind them, a red button began pulsating and a siren began wailing. "It's just like I suspected." Endymion said a matter-of-factly. "Point 1 and then the Palace."
"We're on it!" the Inner Senshi said together.
"Count us in too." Sailor Uranus added for the Outer Senshi.
As the eight Senshi and two Generals exited the Control Room, Sailor Venus only could hope that Roiyaru and Tomoshibi were alright.

Three men and two women laughed as people scrambled away from them. "We are Intruders!" The five of them announced making their way through the streets of Point 1. Point 1 was the supply point for the Royal Army. Anything that had to do with protection of the entire city was in Point 1 yet it was the only unguarded point in Crystal Tokyo.
"What are they planning to do?" Sailor Mars asked.
"You're the priestess!" the other three Senshi said to her. The five Intruders walked down the street destroying developments and garages with some sort of force around them.
"Sailor Mercury, analyze that thing." Sailor Venus said to Mercury who was way ahead of her.
Pushing buttons on her compact computer and looking through her visor, she saw the make-up of the force-field. "It's like a big shield almost like Saturn's 'Silence Wall'... except it's also an offensive move... Look at the damage it's creating just by them focusing on what they want to hit with it!"
"We'll just have to infiltrate it then!" Sailor Mars said heading off into the street. "Mars... Flame Sniper!" The arrow-shaped flame hit the force-field but it barely shook the five people protected by it. "Stop right there! We won't allow you to destroy anymore of our precious kingdom! I am Sailor Mars!"
"Venus... Love and Beauty Shock!" The spinning heart hit the translucent force-field again pushing the five Intruders backwards. "We don't know where you've come from but it's our job to stop you! I am Sailor Venus!"
"Mercury... Aqua Rhapsody... Jupiter... Oak Evolution!" The green energy balls and the waves of water hit the screen causing the five to be pushed back even more. "You must be stopped!" Sailor Mercury and Sailor Jupiter said together. "I am Sailor Mercury... I am Sailor Jupiter!"
"In the name of the Moon, we shall punish you!" the four inner Senshi said together.
Once the Senshi's speech was done, a translucent blast of energy was shot towards them. Jumping out the way, the blast forcefully hit a car, sending it backwards, denting the front and setting off the airbags.
"Burning Mandala... Sparkling Wide Pressure!" Sailor Mars and Sailor Jupiter invoked together. As their attacks headed straight for the enemy, the Intruders made a translucent force-field in front of them that reflect the attacks of the two Senshi back towards them. Luckily, the two were tackled to the ground by two men in Tuxedoes.
"I think you better watch out for those things, Sailor Senshi." Tuxedo Asteroid said.
"Without you, there won't be much to protect the palace." Tuxedo Kometto added. Standing up with Tuxedo Asteroid, the two ran towards the five who seemed powerless but as they came closer, another force-field was emitted sending them flying into Sailor Mars and Sailor Jupiter. Then the force-field hit all four flying into a brick wall.
"Shine Aqua Illusion... Venus Crescent Beam!" Sailor Mercury and Sailor Venus invoked only to be hurled backwards the same way Sailor Mars and Sailor Jupiter did into light poles and vehicles.
"It's time that I, the Senshi of Time, take you down! I am Sailor Pluto! Pluto Dead Scream!" The purple planet-like sphere was launched at the five whose spherical screen guarded them. The attack bounced off the force-field like a ball and was heading straight for Sailor Pluto... that is until Sailor Saturn appeared.
"Silence Wall! The Senshi of Mystery and Destruction has stopped you! I am Sailor Saturn!"
Sailor Uranus and Sailor Neptune appeared. "The Senshi of the winds and sky... I am Sailor Uranus!"
"The Senshi guided by the seas, I am Sailor Neptune!"
"Let's make it count Neptune... Uranus World Shaking!"
"Neptune Deep Submerge..." The combined powers hit the force-field and it popped and shattered like falling pieces of a balloon. The five Intruders stood angry then created another force-field and blasted it towards the four Senshi but Sailor Saturn put up her own force-field - her 'Silence Wall.'
"I can't keep it up much longer!" Sailor Saturn told them. The Silence Wall broke and the four Senshi were hit.
The five Intruders laughed. "Nothing can stop the Kin of the Black Crystal!" they shouted. Focusing their energy, they created a force-field all around them and it grew, crushing every building around them. Serving as the epicenter, they moved forward past the eight Senshi and two Generals who, when touching the force-field were hard-pressed against buildings themselves.
"They want to get to the palace!" Sailor Venus cried as the building behind her cracked and splintered as her body continued to mashed onto it.
"No, we must protect it!" Sailor Mars barely said as the force-field had put her face towards the building she and Sailor Jupiter were pushed upon.
"Well we have to do something!" Sailor Jupiter shouted.
"I can barely move!" Sailor Uranus said as the car window her head was pressed upon began to crack.
"Look!" Sailor Neptune said. "Their force-field is growing!"
"Moon Tiara Action!" Suddenly a glowing discus spun out of nowhere, tore through the force-field and broke the bond between two of the Intruders. The force-field then disappeared. "Not so fast, Intruders!"
I know, this chapter was shorter than the others. Well, I guess Chapter 6 will have to come sooner, maybe? Take a wild guess at what happens especially with what thetitle is, haha. If you want more information on the villains, you can find it through my homepage.
