They stayed in space for another while and caressed each other while her warm body lay on top of his, his arms around her body and his chin on her head.
"Those two days were hell."
"I know. I couldn't even sleep right."
"I think it's time that we make it official. I cannot stay without you anymore."
"Tomorrow we go to Usagi and confess to her. I cannot stay away from you anymore."
The Couple stayed another while in space just stargazing before they went back. Getting dressed again wasn't that easy in the cockpit but with a bit of flexibility they somehow managed. Not that she was having much clothes on when she entered the cockpit.
"Can I try to fly?" Rei asked curious, while she was sitting on his lap, they were sitting upright again.
"Sure, put your hand here and here. This is the throttle and manages the engines. This is the joystick for moving. Be easy, AICA is a tender being." He explained to her and helped her to get the right grip on the controls.
"Don't worry Rei, If things go off, I'll intervene automatically." AICA noted, SunTzu had turned her on again for the way home.
Rei took control and played with AICA's controls a bit, seeing how fast the starfighter would react to her movements of the joystick. And damn, she was a fine calibrated piece of machinery.
"Don't go to hard, we're not strapped in." SunTzu told his girlfriend.
After flying forward and just gently tapping the controls Rei veered around a bit.
One time she overdid it a bit and AICA broke out left.
"This is fun. You really have to teach me more." The black haired girl yelled in amusement.
She gave some extra speed and AICA shot through space.
"This is so cool. I'm flying a starfighter!" She said with a beaming smile.
She flew easy maneuvers for a few minutes before SunTzu laid his hands on hers on the controls.
"It's getting late. Let's go home, we teach you some more another time."
Rei pouted playfully.
"Are you jealous, that I'm flying your starfighter TopGun?" She giggled.
"Imagine in how much trouble I would be if someone could see us. A diplomat and Sailor Senshi i swore to protect flying a starfighter in space half naked."
"Oh, that's no problem. I'll go to War in High Heels so flying undressed is not a big stretch." She laughed and then turned around to kiss him. "Thank you for allowing me this."
"Everything for you my Queen."
SunTzu took over again and they descended back to earth and took course on the shrine. Sun was about to rise. She cuddled up on him while he flew her home.
He came in slow and used the repulsors to not wake anyone up at the temple.
After they landed they shared another long kiss.
"I love you my Doitsu no Akuma. Tomorrow we make this official."
"No more hiding. I need you next to me."
"I'll see you later. Shoot me a message, when you're at the palace."
"I will, see you later."
"See you later."
As the canopy opened they shared another gentle kiss and she got up and jumped out of the cockpit.
Rei's Yukata opened up, but she didn't care. There was a small breeze that cooled her down after the staying together of their warm bodies.
The Yukata flitted in the air, revealing her underpants as she walked into the shrine. She turned around and gifted him a last smile.
His heart skipped a moment and the aesthetics and beauty of this moment forever got stored in his mind. She was a goddess.
His goddess of Fire.
I'm one lucky motherfucker. Thank you Usagi for getting me here.
SunTzu lifted AICA off again and almost soundlessly vanished into the night.
Taking course to his place while the sun slowly came up, he flew extra slow and enjoyed the sunrise. He could have sworn it was the most beautiful sunrise he ever saw.
Good morning Tokyo, may you have a wonderful day.
AICA dropped him at his house and flew further to the base. On the way inside his apartment he wondered if he ever would see trouble for his trips. On the other side, one of the most powerful Jedi Masters sent him here so at least this time he might be safe.
It was around 4:45 on and he decided to get a little bit of more sleep in.
Two hours later he awoke and got ready before he took a taxi to the base. His wingmen were still on Anaxes and he didn't feel fit enough for a morning run with Team 1 so he opted for something completely different and went for a swim.
He maybe was a bit overnighted but damn he felt great. Apart from the sensation of physical exercise it calmed him down so much. He took a small break and was at the edge of the pool when he started grinning like a stupid. It hit him. She loved him. She really loved him. Rei loved him. And she loved her. He pushed away from the edge of the pool and started swimming again.
Row after row he took until he saw something in the corner of his eye approaching the pool. Not something but someone.
A person. Under water he could see some red and white colors and black hair.
His heart began to pound heavy but not because the exercise.
As fast as he could he swam up to the edge of the pool.
She was waiting for him at the edge.
"Up early too, I see."
"I had these strange dream that a Knight in black armor kidnapped me on his black and grey steed and took me to the stars."
"Lucky guy. I hope he made it worthwhile."
"Pretty much. Showed me some wonders of the universe. And I guess I tamed his steed."
"Sounds great. But leaves me a bit with my back on the wall to overtrump it."
SunTzu was resting at the edge of the pool, glancing up to Rei in her transformed form.
He smiled at her and let his gaze wander down from her face down to her legs and feet, finally resting on her red high heels.
"Going to war?"
"Depends on what the Queen has to say about that little affair me and my Knight are having. I might be willing to put up a fight for him."
He smiled and she got on her knees, looking at his face.
Goddamit, you are a piece of art woman.
He lifted himself up and kissed her.
It was a brief kiss and she started laughing.
"Stop, you are wet. Now I need a towel."
Rei got up, peeling off the water of herself.
"I thought I'll take the chance. You know, there's a chance I might get summary execution today."
"Too bad. I might have to fight over AICA with Hotaru but I'm totally gonna take your PlayStation."
"Ow, that hurts."
Sailor Mars grinned at him before leaning down and kissing his forehead.
"I never said besting me would be easy." She looked onto him. "Ready to face a challenge Lieutenant."
The pilot got out of the pool, taking a deep breath in while she went over to where his towel laid.
"Roger that, Diplomat Hino. But how about breakfast first, I think I'm entitled to a last meal."
She laughed and threw the towel onto him.
"Let's go then, little Mermaid."
The base was still pretty empty and at sleep when they had breakfast. A strong coffee was very welcomed after the short night and the lost sleep the last nights.
"You know, when we leave this place today, I just want to take a nap next to you." Rei said and hide a yawn.
"Sounds like the perfect date for today."
Empowered by breakfast and determined to take on whatever problems the galaxy could throw at them if they made their relationship official in front of the Royal Couple.
Unfortunately the determination didn't hold up for long and as closer as they came to the Crystal Tower the more nervous they got.
Eternal Sailor Mars, multiple savior of the earth and SunTzu, decorated Starfighter Ace and Force User needed to grasp each other's hands with each other to continue their way on to the tower.
"Maybe we should have a cigarette first." SunTzu said.
Rei let out a big sigh and squeezed his hand slightly.
"No. Let's do this. I got you. If things go bad I can still set Mina onto Artemis."
"I love you."
"I know." She mocked him to bring his spirits up, maybe revealing their relationship to the world was a stupid idea. But on the other side, her boyfriend proofed often enough that he was the epitome of stupid ideas. Her heart jumped as she thought about how much he had won her over and how much she loved him.
The couple arrived in front of the Crystal Tower and took a last deep breathe and then turned heads and nodded to each other.
The entered and asked one of the guards where the Queen was. The Guard answered that her Majesty was in the Throne Room.
Off they went, hearts in their mouths.
The Guard in front of the door opened them the door and they stepped in.
Neo-Queen Serenity II., was sitting on her throne, surrounded by various advisors, briefing her on something.
As the door opened she glanzed up and made a motion to the advisors to step off for a minute.
"Ah, it's you two."
They both bowed down before her.
"Welcome back SunTzu. Jedi Master Durron already informed me, that you were on an important mission for him and would be back from Anaxes early. You have to show me these medals promptly. And tell me what this important mission for the Jedi was." The Queen was quite the curious person.
"Queen Serenity, we both have something to announce to you." Rei said, still bowed down.
"Oh, as you both are here, I guess you already bumped into Ami and heard the news." The Queen shook her head from side to side, thinking about what to say.
"I know, last time was quite long and enduring but you two were more than successful and I heard your acting skills were on top. So, no. You're not gonna get parted for this mission. And now excuse me, there's a delegation from the Royal Department of Finances coming soon and I really have to understand what they'll want from me." Neo Queen Serenity dismissed them with a nod and waved the advisors back over.
SunTzu and Rei, both bowing down looked interrogatory at each other, asking themselves what the hell that was about.
They left the throne room and as soon as the Coast was clear the Pilot asked Sailor Mars:
"What did she mean?"
"I don't have any idea. But I guess our relationship has to stand back in face of Usagi's disability to keep the most simple data."
"We're not further, but at least we are not in trouble also."
"If you see it like that. Come on, let's see Ami and find out what Usagi meant. But first I need a cigarette."
Few minutes and a cigarette later, they arrived in the Office of the Intelligence Officer and Senshi.
"Good morning, sorry to bother you Ami."
"Good Morning Rei, I was about to write you to come over anyway." She looked at SunTzu and smiled. "Good Morning SunTzu, welcome back. Had a nice joyride yesterday night?"
How'd she know? Intelligence Personnel always was so damn creepy.
"Don't worry, I'll keep my mouth shout and cover you. Who do you mean, takes care, that you don't get in trouble for taking AICA for private or non-essential trips." She winked at him and smiled. "And I know how hard it has to be for you guys. But that's actually why I wanted to see you."
"Yeah, Queen Learning Disability mentioned something when we got there to confess to her."
"Oh, how did that go?" Ami asked with a surprised face.
Rei facepalmed and stayed quiet and SunTzu took the word.
"She didn't even listen. But as she seemed busy we decided to postpone to another time."
"Indeed, she is very busy these days. The offices are preparing their half year reviews. You might wanna try another time, when her head is a bit less distracted." She paused and took turns to glance at both. "Then it will be nice for you guys to learn, that I have a new mission for you. You get to work together as couple again. No traveling this time, you'll stay on Tokyo."
The couple exchanged looks and interlocked hands, this sounded good.
Ami explained the mission to them. The criminal group a certain starfighter, it's pilot and now pilot trainee demolished in the Tokyo Docks was part of a bigger organization. And they still wanted to start into the galactic business. They were to go out to a club in Shibuya which belonged to the big boss of the organization and was where he spent he's weekend nights at, posing as Max and Akira again, although not married this time. He had an office in there and they were just to sneak up in and put a bug onto his computer and in the office. The boss or members of the Gang were never their on the week and an observation vehicle would also be on the lookout if something would arise from the outside. For once they probably wouldn't need AICA's superior firepower and draw any attention.
Too easy.
"I'll make sure you guys are off duty till tonight. Just give me a few minutes."
While Ami made the calls, Rei and SunTzu leaned in close together.
"Sleep Date?"
"You bet."
They just made a detour over to AICA and told her they were off for today. SunTzu told her, that he'd definitely wouldn't need her tonight and also would tell Hotaru that she could get some flying time in if she could.
Soon as he sent the message and said goodbye to his beloved starfighter they were off to his place.
After a goodnight kiss at noon both cuddled up and napped away.
These Intelligence Service Missions sure had their Pros.
After a few hours of extra sleep, enjoying each other's company and almost oversleeping, Rei left on an Uber to get ready.
He dressed up too, as the club was pretty high class he opted for something more chic with Jeans and a slim fit shirt, neck tie leather jacket on top. The jacket was mostly to hide his pistol. No one would search a foreigner, right?
He took a taxi over to the shrine to get Rei. He gave her a quick call before his taxi arrived and she came down the stairs to the shrine, wearing black leather leggings, a bandeau top, revealing her great shaped stomach and a blazer.
Yet another time he thanked the universe that this divine being was his girlfriend.
They left and went out for dinner first, some fast food joint near the club and then had a drink in a bar, also nearby. The movement profile as well as the behavior were fitting. They weren't sure if they were observed but Ami told them, that they'd were to act on their own, not that they wouldn't do that anyway.
Some minutes after twelve the lovers entered the club, a sophisticated beautifully decorated dance club where the beautiful and wealthy of Tokyo's upper class and rich foreigners went to party all night on the weekends.
The couple entered and went to a bar inside the club. Max Mustermann's Black Credit Card really worked flawless.
They decided to make a tour of the whole club to assess the situation regarding security and the entrance to the office room. After a few minutes they decided to split up. She looked on the second floor, which also had a balcony overlooking the dancefloor on the first floor.
Rei briefly glanced down and saw SunTzu ambling around a lounge area down there.
He looks good tonight, in that shirt. Next time don't oversleep Honey, so you can get some of that good German Bratwurst before you have to do Secret Agent Stuff.
Stop It Rei, no time for this yet. You know that duty comes first. TopGun wouldn't let you forget that.
Rei took a last glance at him, sighed and went on to scout the place.
After the two investigated the club they met again, near the dancefloor.
"Found something?" He asked her, while he scanned the room if anybody was observing them. He couldn't make out anyone doing so.
"I believe so. Second floor near the VIP lounges. Any idea how to sneak up there?
"I do. Care for a dance." He said and offered her a hand. She didn't know what he was up to but why not.
They danced for a while before he brought her to a bar and they had something to drink. She still didn't know what he was up to, but if this was part of the plan she was more than willing to do her part.
He lead her up to the second floor while his hands and himself came ever closer to her. To everyone not involved it would look like a date where the two people get closer and closer.
As they were close to the door into the office he took her hand, pulled her in and started kissing her passionately. Yeah, it would look totally normal, a couple making out in a club and preferring to be not in direct front of everyone. Nothing suspicious.
They mixed buisness with pleasure and while their hands and lips where all over each other they slowly but firm moved up to the door.
As soon as they were there, SunTzu checked the door why Rei stood watch. It was closed but nothing the little lockpick that Ami gave them before the mission couldn't handle.
As soon as the door opened, they vanished into it and closed it again.
SunTzu draw his pistol. The light was off and nobody seemed to be there.
"You sure you still can shoot straight, that Tokyo Ice Tea looked pretty strong." She hushed when he made sure there was a bullet in the chamber, earning her an annoyed look from him.
"You sure you can focus on the mission enough? Those hands were a bit too touchy and curious for just covering our way to get here.
Touché.
Although he seemed to like the leather leggings a bit to much too for just pretending and rather secretly moving to this location.
They walked an corridor down to the last room and stopped in front of an thick ornamented double door. These Asian Gangsters all seem to have the same sense of style.
He was about to pull out the lock pick again when she pulled down his hand.
"It's faster this way." She took her hand, that was already smoking, and put it on the lock. A few seconds later the metal turned into a fiery orange and the lock began to melt. She pushed the door open while he aimed his gun inside.
"You know, I love working with you Moeru Shōjo." He commented the swift action.
Swiftly SunTzu moved in, gun up. Rei followed with a fireball ready in her held up palm.
The room was empty. There was a sofa inside as well as some cabinets with vertu and books, a door to another room was next to them and also a big desk including a LCD-Computer-Screen on it.
The lovers immediately went for the desktop and the computer that was underneath it. Rei extinguished the fire ball in her hand.
SunTzu pulled out an USB-Stick and put it into the Computer. The bug was a software or rather computer virus that would secretly steal data from the computer.
Just booting up the computer until the BIOS would activate and they'd be done here.
He pressed the on switch and suddenly the light went on and a dozen armed people stormed into the room Guns drawn and enclosed them.
They had directly running into a trap.
The namesake was right, never underestimate your opponent. And the two of them just excelled in doing the opposite.
A large man the stature of a bear walked in. The man was in the middle of his fifties, sporting a dark beard and large growing eyebrows as well as big scar over his completely shaven head.
"If that isn't the representatives of the Royal Kingdom trying to interfere in the buisness of a simple buisness man." The Yakuza Boss said. "Drop your weapons."
SunTzu looked to Rei, there was fire burning in her eyes but if they'd resist now they surely would die here.
He closed his eyes and motioned her to not resist.
Someone brought two chairs in and after being searched and SunTzu's jacket being taken away, SunTzu and Rei were forced to sit down where they were restrained with plastic handcuffs.
SunTzu briefly glanced to Rei. They weren't the only ones doing mistakes. And then he found an Interesting detail one of the Yakuza.
The Mafia Boss sat down on his desk.
"I know you too. That Pilot that's been in the galactic news lately. A goddamn war hero. But what's even more interesting. Rei Hino, chief diplomat of the Royal Kingdom and Daughter of the incumbent Secretary of the Interior of Japan." The elder man laughed.
"Say Miss Hino, does your father know, that you play Secret Agent in his country why you rather should rather be representing our planet on Coruscant?"
Rei looked more than angry but she didn't say a word.
"A honorable Shinto Priestess with a Gaijin. Yes, I saw you on the cameras in the club." The boss spat on the ground. "You should be ashamed of yourself you gaijinhunting Slut!" The boss yelled at Rei, who looked as if she was about to explode.
"Don't raise your voice to my Woman." SunTzu told the man calm but firm.
The boss turned his head onto him in anger and motioned to one of his thugs.
The gangster punched SunTzu left and right in the face and gave him a third punch into the stomach.
"Even a german is despicable to a Japanese." The boss said. "But don't worry, now that she is already soiled I think we can make the most out of it." The boss laughed. "Maybe even put it on camera and use it to blackmail your father."
Rei was too shocked to actually react. The punches SunTzu received were pretty hard and hit her into her own soul.
"You don't mind Mister if Miss Hino doesn't hear this now." SunTzu spluttered out towards the Yakuza Boss through clenched teeth as blood started to flow out of his nose, which fortunately wasn't broken at least. The pilot gazed over to a shocked Rei.
"Would you please close your eyes and try not to listen. You don't want to see or hear this, Ramada."
She stared at him for a second and then she understood and shut her eyes down, head facing down. He was about to do something really stupid.
He let the Japanese Mob boss know what he felt about being called despicable from a man like this. In German and in very, very explicit words, that amongst others involved insulting the man's mother. Although the Yakuza didn't understood the words the volume and tone let them know that SunTzu was not praising their taste in interior design.
Immediately he received more punches.
Good, I can take it, he thought as his lip burst open.
Focus on me Motherfuckers.
Under the cheering of the gangsters SunTzu took another hard left to his face.
If they only knew how much anger and bloodlust he had in him because they were insulting and threatening Rei.
Four of the gang members were wearing tactical clothing, SMGs and plate carriers with tactical gear, including smoke and stun grenades. And one of them was standing right in the middle of a bunch of six guys at the other side of the room.
Master Durron once said that size didn't matter for the Force but SunTzu's telekinesis abilities were far from his Master's skill. He didn't need to lift an X-Wing out of an swamp though, just to pull out the safety pin of a stun grenade.
And although it was pretty hard to concentrate on this while blocking out the pain of the fine beating this Japanese gentleman was doing onto him he managed.
The guy in his plate carrier looked down on him when he saw the safety pin fall and tried to react but it was too late.
The room erupted into a bright white light and high pitch, blinding and deafening everyone that wasn't counting for it.
While she had problems because the loud shriek and lost her hearing too Rei was prepared for the flash and as soon as she felt the flash and sound she burned through her restraints, pushed her chair back so that it feel and rolled up on her back.
When she jumped up in a single motion out of the role she hit the nearest man with a fist engulfed in flame and burned his face. What followed was a high spin kick into the guy that was beating her boyfriend to pulp.
Her heel hit the spot between his eyes and knocked him out. She jumped over to SunTzu and burned through his plastic handcuffs before she took on the next guy.
SunTzu was grateful that the force shut down the pain of the beating and the stun grenade out and while he couldn't hear or see right now the force guided him. He boxed a guy into his stomach and ripped the gangster's pistol from his hands. He shot the man he just disarmed into the stomach and let the force guide him onto the next targets, which was the group of six. He emptied the pistol into the men aiming at the height of their necks.
As soon as they heard shooting they raised their weapons but the deafness and blindness didn't help them and so one guy completely missed and the other shot a salvo into the guy next to him as the hurt armored guy fell onto him.
Only one guy, the main bodyguard standing near the boss acted right. Although he couldn't see right, he grabbed the boss and headed for the second door.
Rei knocked down another guy and then threw a fireball into a guy that was just about to raise his MP5 towards her. The man fell down on his knees screaming as most of his upper body was burning.
As SunTzu's vision came back he saw that everyone in the room except him and Rei and that the boss and one of the guys were gone.
"ARE YOU OKAY?!" He yelled over to Rei but she didn't react.
"REI!?"
She was still deafened. He rushed to her and tapped her shoulder which make her jump and almost hit him with a fist full of fire before she recognized him.
"I CANNOT HEAR!" She yelled and he only could understand her because the force somehow carried the words to him.
"I HAVE AN IDEA!" She yelled and suddenly held her hand up. "MARS POWER MAKE UP!"
She transformed and through the force he could feel her immense power as a Senshi flowed into her, he could feel her become Sailor Mars.
"That's better. I was beginning to worry about my hearing." She said as she was done transforming. "Are you okay?"
He still could only hear her with the help of the force and it sounded like he was underwater while listening but he nodded.
In that moment two other Gangsters stormed in and before they could take aim Sailor Mars greeted them with two fireballs.
"Those guys really thought I wouldn't put up a fight? Especially with this threats they threw me?" Sailor Mars was beyond furious. Apart from the threats to abuse her, SunTzu got quite the beating. And nobody, absolutely nobody beats her man. Except maybe herself.
SunTzu took two pistols from dead Yakuza and checked their mags.
More Yakuza were coming in and the Pilot greeted them with a salvo of bullets before he jumped out the door and emptied his pistols on two more guys coming at them, had been armed with baseball bats.
Rei was about to follow him, when she saw that one of the dead Yakuza was wearing a Katana. That would come in handy. She attached the sheath on the bows of her Senshi Uniform and followed SunTzu.
SunTzu picked up a long knife from one of the dead attackers near the door and moved up. The door to the club opened and three of the club's large bouncers entered, pulling out telescope batons. They immediately rushed towards him, getting ready to strike.
He was about to stand his ground as a hail of burning mandalas shot apart left and right from him and hit two of the bouncers, eliminating them. After what she was told before and seeing SunTzu's face after the beating he received she was in fury.
He jumped up to the shocked last guy and swung the knife through his throat, producing a large fountain of blood.
Rei closed up to him and listening on her steps he sensed that he could listen normally again.
"Topper, that actually was stupid as it was brilliant." He smiled at her before he grabbed her under the skirt and pulled her close to him.
They were about to kiss when she realized that his face was covered in blood from his lips and nose.
She turned away and shook her head. He understood, regarding the iron taste in his mouth he must have been looking terrible.
"You ready to get out of here my beloved Flaming Fist of the Far East? They will be outside this door in the club, waiting for us." He asked her with a serious tone.
"Good. Sailor Mars doesn't run from a fight and this one is personal now."
They put their foreheads together for a moment and then moved up to the door to the club.
Just as they reached it, it opened up into the inside, another bouncer tried to get in. Simultaneously they kicked the door close and the bouncer was pushed back into the club again.
SunTzu tore open the door again and greeted the bouncer that was about to get up again with a kick into his chin.
Outside more Yakuza and Bouncers rushed towards the door.
Rei and SunTzu rushed out the door and the Miko pulled the sword out of the scabbard.
They were standing back to back, blades at the ready when the enemy stormed towards them, coming from two sides.
SunTzu and Sailor Mars attacked, each taking another way down.
SunTzu stabbed a guy and took his baton from his hands to use it to break another man's facial bones, shattering his skull also. A Yakuza with an axe was the next and he hammered the baton onto the man's wrist, making him loose the axe before he struck him onto Adam's apple, breaking it and making the man unconscious. He swiftly grabbed the axe and got up close and personal with the next duo of enemies.
Oh yes, Hotaru was right with the rush of close combat. Showing his teeth he attacked.
Rei held the Sword at the height of her eyes and rushed forward, beheading a guy that was trying to stab her with a knife, she ducked the strike of another Yakuza with a Machete and slashed the man's stomach open. A third one tried to hit her with a bat that was peppered with nails but from down she stabbed him through the heart before she kicked him to free her sword.
She used to have sword training and it wasn't even her first time fighting with a sword she completely forgot the rush that this sort of combat brought. She started to grin and attacked the next man.
Chaos broke out in the club after the loud bang and the sound of shooting. Dozens if not hundreds of people tried to get out as soon as they could while Yakuza tried to get inside. People were screaming and crying. It was pure chaos.
As SunTzu and Sailor Mars hacked, slashed, punched and maimed their way out, the Yakuza were trying to stop them but they couldn't properly shoot in the hordes of fleeing people nor get up to the two devils killing their comrades fast enough.
One Gangster had enough and raised up his short barreled AK and let off his whole Magazine into SunTzu's direction. He missed but SunTzu had to make jump to the front to not get shot. He landed next to the railing and decided that it was time to take the fight a floor deeper.
The pilot jumped over the railing and landed next to the reloading gangster. With a swift move he punched the axe into the man's forehead as another guy came in and attacked him with a Katana, he could barely dodge and was sure the next strike would hit him as the blade was stopped by another blade.
Sailor Mars had jumped down too as she saw the guy attacking SunTzu and now they two swordfighters were in a deadly struggle while head butted a guy that came from behind and tried to stab them. He pushed the stunned man's own knife into him and gave him another headbutt. Ripping the blade out he threw it on a another Yakuza raising up a pistol at him. The blade landed in the man's stomach and he grabbed at it. SunTzu rushed over to him, ripped the pistol out of his hands and shot the man in the side of his head. Two more Yakuza's pushed through the mass of fleeing clubbers, pulling out their guns. SunTzu ran over to them and in a swift motion shot them in the head at nearest distance, not risking to hit anybody else.
The Yakuza with the Japanese Sword was quite a skilled swordsman.
He taunted Rei.
"Too bad a beautiful girl like you has to die by my blade. But don't worry, i try to just hurt you so much, that you won't be dead immediately and we can have some fun before you breath out your life."
The thug was a skilled swordsman but no match for someone that had been training bow and sword fighting basically since childhood. After a fierce fast fight Mars found an opening in the man's Defence and thrusted her blade into the man's stomach. She turned towards him, as his eyes widened.
"How do I feel inside you old man? Do you enjoy it?" She turned the blade inside the man and as his life quickly faded out of him she pulled the blade free. The man sank on his knees and she kicked her heel on his forehead. That pervert wasn't even worth a beheading to end it quick.
The club emptied itself more and more but Yakuza still were rushing inside.
Outside the first sirens were to be heard and soon the first gunshots as well.
No Yakuza with guns came inside anymore but soon they were encircled by Thugs with all kind of melee weapons.
The couple were standing back to back, soaked in sweat and blood. There were at least eighteen gangsters left.
"Think you can do this?" SunTzu asked Sailor Mars, taking her hand and squeezing it gently.
"I'm having way too much fun actually."
He grinned, knowing exactly what she meant.
She took a breather and raised her voice.
"I, Sailor Mars, Guardian of Neo Queen Serenity and Crystal Tokyo challenge you all to a fight to the death. Come one or come all, we will kill all and any of you!"
Japanese and their dramatic ways.
The few witnesses that didn't left the club in panic would later say that they were observing demons. The Sailor Senshi and the blood smutched man fought with the force and passion of devils, they didn't best their rivals, they completely annihilated them. Some would even say, that anyone that opposed the women and wasn't immediately cut or stabbed down would be hit by a ball or fist or even kick of fire, as crazy as it sounded.
It didn't took more than two minutes and no Yakuza was alive at first sight afterwards. The floor was littered with corpses and body parts.
And in the middle of it, Sailor Mars and SunTzu were standing, still opposite to each other, breathing heavily. They had sustained some minor cuts and SunTzu received a mean kick against his ribs that still hurted like hell but otherwise they were uninjured.
Sailor Mars cleaned the Katana's blade on her dress and sheathed the sword. They turned around to face each other as armed police man entered the club, guns drawn.
In the light of the club, his face and clothes smeared with blood, shirt ripped apart showing the defined muscles of his body and grinning ferociously with fire in his eyes, he did look like a Demon. Her demon.
Her face and senshi uniform were dirty, partly ripped and bloody, including a big blood stain where she cleaned the sword's blade, the sword's scabbard hanging from her uniform and hands still smoking from the flames she casted, she did look like the Goddess of War. His Goddess of War.
She didn't care for the blood in his face anymore nor did he care that she was emitting heat. Their lips found the other's like it was all they ever knew. Their hands found the other's body like it was what they solemnly were therefor. Their tongues found the others like it was their sole purpose. While police swarmed out around them, the two kissed each other as if the universe just existed out of the two of them anymore.
They might had forgotten to follow the Art of War, but that hadn't hindered them to become War that night.
Fifteen Minutes later a Police Special Forces Team, Police and News Choppers as well as an army of police, fire department and ambulance cars were on the scene. Some people had been hurt in the mass panic and although nobody counted on it a few Yakuza weren't completely dead yet. Not all survivors would make it though.
The couple just came out of the club again, one of the agents observing the club took over the computer and they showed him the way to there. Also SunTzu could take his jacket back there.
The two intelligence agents got their fair share of action too, after they saw that the gangsters were shooting at the police they got out of their car too and joined the police force's shooting it out with the underworld.
Sailor Mars was sitting on the hood of a police car and SunTzu leaned onto the car next to her, both were smoking. They still looked horrible and also exhausted as they smoked their cigarettes.
"What did you say to that boss guy?"
"Oh, I can't say these words in public. I only can say as much as that I told him that his mother works in a certain profession and not for much money at it."
She laughed out loud.
"I love you, you crazy Idiot."
"Sailor Mars, Lieutenant. You two seen better days." Someone said from behind and the couple turned around.
"Agent Smith, somehow I knew, you'd be here. It's always a pleasure."
"The pleasure is all mine. Mission accomplished. Maybe not very subtle but you also took out lots of Yakuza Members. Between us, that's quite a plus." The Intelligence Agent told them.
"Heard that TopGun? We did the main mission and unlocked the secret achievement also."
Sailor Mars and her lover fistbumped, the exhaustion made them full of vim.
Two black SUVs drove up, red and blue signal flashing inside on the dash.
The SUVs stopped next to them and Captain Furuhata got out, wearing armor and sporting a rifle, he walked over to SunTzu and Mars who were just lighting up their next cigarettes. Other Guardists got out too.
"You two look horrible. What happened?"
"Someone fucked with the wrong two people. If you had dinner lately, don't go inside there." Sailor Mars told him bluntly.
"Too bad the Boss got away." She continued.
"Oh, don't worry, since he attacked two members of the Royal Court there's a warrant out for him anyway." Agent Smith explained.
"Team 1 and a great number of police forces are on the way to his private mansion right now. Police are also ready to storm his office in a skyscraper near here."
SunTzu and the Senshi looked at each other. They flipped their cigarettes away and got up.
"Motoki we need a vehicle." They walked past the Captain to the SUV and SunTzu opened the door to the backseat for his girlfriend. Motoki joined them and got in the passenger seat as SunTzu walked past the car. On the way he quickly turned around and nodded towards Agent Smith who answered with a raised hand.
The SUV left for the skyscraper and as they got there, several police cars were already in front of the building and police officers were closing off the near surroundings.
The black truck parked at the entrance of the building and they got out.
SunTzu opened the SUV's trunk and just as he expected there were rifles inside. He took one out, put a magazine inside and a reserve one into his jacket's pocket.
Suddenly something broke up in the last floor and glass rained down at another side of the building.
People got into cover as Sailor Mars and SunTzu entered the building. Inside policemen in bulletproof vests were discussing with the concierges and waiting for backup.
The couple went straight to the elevator, and ignored the policemen and the concierge wanting to stop them. Motoki followed them and took care of the people trying to stop them, explaining that they were from the Royal Kingdom.
The elevator doors closed and they left for the top floor.
The couple turned to each other.
"Ready?"
"Let's do this."
They kissed and then he switched the safety off of his gun while she draw her sword and casted a fire ball in the other hand.
The door opened and they were ready for everything.
But nothing happened.
It was completely quiet.
SunTzu left the elevator first, weapon at the ready. Very cautious and step by step he moved forward. She followed, ready to throw the fireball.
And then they found the first body. It was basically chopped in half.
He briefly glanced down and then moved forward. On an open door he found two more bodies, both with big cuts over their upper bodies.
Rei moved in the other direction and found a head and a few meters down the corridor the appendant body.
SunTzu moved forward and found another dead body lying on a wall and stabbed to death. He began to understand, a weapon that could cut and stab. Just like a glaive.
He controlled the man's throat, no pulse but he still was warm. She had done this just a few minutes before. SunTzu immediately knew there wouldn't be any survivors, the mobsters weren't good enough.
The pilot sighed, did he really thought she would have gotten more cautious?
He moved up and found a bunch of corpses that weren't slain by a Glaive, opposite from them were bullet holes, they tried to shoot something but had been shot themselves. Nearby he found empty jackets under the bullet holes. They were 9mm and not .40.
So, apparently she didn't come alone.
"You won't find any survivors! They're all dead!" He yelled over to Sailor Mars.
"How do you know?" She yelled back while trying to not fall over any dead bodies. These bodies here were shot though.
He moved up to the big office with the glass walls at the other end of the floor. As he expected it was the boss's office and as he walked in he found four dead bodyguards, two swordsman and two gun man. One with an Assault Rifle and one with two stylized custom pistols. At least one was shot and two were killed by a sharp blade.
The boss's Body sat on the chair behind his desk, a pistol still in hand. His head lay in front of the table.
Behind him was the broken window. He stopped up and looked out the broken window, wind pulling at his clothes.
A few dozen meters out there was a lower built building. If someone would have found a way to slow down his fall he could have jumped over there.
He pulled out his phone and wrote a certain black haired teenager a message. The message just said that they needed to talk.
Rei entered the room, looking at the decapitated head of the boss.
"Too bad, I'd like to had done that myself." She stated and looked up to him.
SunTzu turned around to face Rei.
"At least, that saved us some time. By the way, any chance that you and Hotaru are related by blood? The carnage you two leave behind each is pretty much the same."
She looked at him, furrowing her brow.
And then it hit her.
"Oh. Our efficient little killing machine. Even before you took her in she had been like that actually."
The door to the stairway ripped open and a Special Assault Team of the Police stormed in.
"Gentlemen, beautiful entrance but we're done here already."
They left the office and went back to the ground floor. Motoki was still there.
They told him that they were done here and the boss and his bodyguards were dead.
"We're taking a cab to the hospital now. Good night Captain, tell Ami we contact her tomorrow."
They took a cab and went to the hospital in Juban.
Arriving there they asked if Dr. Meiou or Dr. Mizuno were available, both were.
Soon the two medics arrived.
"What the? Did you two had an accident. Sailor Mars please tell me, that this is not your blood on your clothes?" Setsuna said and immediately besides them.
"We ran into a bunch of criminals. You might heard the news about what happened in Shibuya tonight."
Setsuna began to examine SunTzu's face while Ami's Mother began to examine Sailor Mars's cuts.
"You took quite the beating. But at least it looks like nothing is broken."
"TopGun started insulting the mother of the biggest Yakuza Boss in town. I think it's hilarious, but they didn't think so." Rei stated.
"I see. Sailor Mars, next time, try to stop him. It's remarkable that his nose isn't broken." Setsuna replied.
The couple got Bacta plasters for their various cuts and SunTzu got a bigger one for his ribs. They were pretty bruised but not broken. Also they could finally clean the blood off of them.
They said their goodbyes to the two female doctors and left the hospital.
"Let's go home? This calls for celebratory we-survived-sex."
"It does but tonight we end the evening on a more traditional Japanese fashion. As your faithful tourist guide I'll show you where young couples go to in this city."
They took a cab to Shibuya, to the Dogenzaka area. After a quick stop in a convenience store to get some snacks and drinks she lead him to the Love Hotel Hill.
"Don't worry, I'll get us a room with a whirlpool."
