As we start this latest chapter, I would like to say that I had a different idea for this arc of this story, but like with all of my stories, even as I write it, the idea for the plot of the arc and the overall story continues to 'evolve' in which to stay with the 'theme' of SAO, this arc should have more of a 'game feel' to it and you will find out what I'm talking about as you read on. You may have an idea on what I mean, but like I have been saying before in various other chapters beforehand, you are going to need to read to find out. I know that this is getting REALLY OLD, but once again, I have to and must give thanks and credit to Belletiger and Kanius as well as Kanius' YuYuGiDigiMoon fanfiction series, especially his The Invasion of the Rajita story, for giving me permission to use the idea of Valkyrie Sailor Soldiers and everything that's a part of them in my fanfiction. I would like to give thanks and credit to Kaniusand his YuYuGiDigiMoon series, including this author's Dawn of Chaos story, and LazerWulf for giving me permission to use the idea for their version of Sailor Charon, namely the fact that she is Sailor Pluto's sister among other things. I would also like to give thanks and credit to Matty G91 and this author's story of Kamen Rider Lunar for giving me permission to use Kamen Rider Lunar and Terra, their looks, everything about him as well as the UNI-SHOCKER organization, and the idea of Darth Raven Sammy Tsukino, the other versions of Sammy Tsukino, and other 'plot ideas' for this story.

Sailor Moon Online: SAO Beyond
(Sword Art Online opening music 'Innocence' starting)
As a group of rainbow colored birds fly through the air, witnessed by Naruto, Davis, and Asuna, the scene switches to Suguha, Serena, and Kazuto walking down the street, they turn around when they 'sense' something and the world around them shatters like a mirror revealing multiple alternate versions of them and the worlds of SAO, ALO, and beyond.
The next scene shows our heroes and heroines looking at the prone form of Suguha, dressed in 'royal gown/dress' as Princess Selene, lying in her see-through coffin with tears in the eyes of Kazuto, Naruto, and Serena in which the scene switches Naruto, dressed in his classic attire, but with white cloak similar to his dad's cloak as Hokage while looking into the wind.
The next scene has Serena looking at her broach and then walking through the hallways of the Moon Kingdom dressed as Princess Serenity and as she looks into the air, her shadow splits into two shadows with one of them looking like her as Valkyrie Sailor Moon and the other looks like Heathcliff.
The following scene has Darien looking at a rose while his 'alternate forms' of Tuxedo Mask and Prince Endymon are behind him and then we see Davis looking at two tags that contain the Crest of Miracles and Life when he feels a hand on shoulder in which he looks to see Kari, Veemon, Gatomon, and the rest of the Digidestined and their Digimon looking at him.
The next scene has Leafa stand in the middle a very swallow pond surround by the images of her four 'doppelgangers' as Sailor Celestial reflected in the water of the pond as a rainbow light comes from the sky in which when she looks up towards it, she then sees the rest of her friends in their ALO avatars and Leafa smiles as she approaches them transforming into Ark Valkyrie Sailor Celestial in the process.
Then we find our heroes and heroines battling through legions of robots, monsters, and fighting even multiple version of Heathcliff before out of some kind of vortex, Ragnarök appears before all of them with a roar of power and hatred. Various warriors, heroes, and 'other people' from the multiverse ranging from Sonic the Hedgehog, Shiroe of Log Horizon, Kite from Dot-hack series, Neptune, Nepgear, and their fellow CPUs/CPU Candidates from Neptunia series, Iron Man, Captain America, Hulk, and others from the Marvel universe, Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, and so many others from the DC Universe, and so many more before it focuses on Doctor Ivo 'Eggman' Robotnik surrounded by the seven Chaos Emeralds and a mysterious and powerful crystal which reality all around it seem to shatter like a mirror.
Valkyrie Sailor Moon, Kazuto, and the others extend their hands to Sailor Celestial and she takes them as they look at what looks like a giant book in which in the pages, there are pictures of various different versions of all of them and Leafa is holding a smaller version of that same book and reading it to Rain, Seven, Yuuki, Strea, and Yui.
Finally, we return to see Suguha, Serena, and Kazuto at that same street in which Suguha closes that same book and turn to see all of their friends/family/loved ones waving towards them causing the three of them to run over towards them as the rainbow-colored birds create a rainbow in the sky.

Act 1: Sword Art Realities
Chapter 10: Riding into a New Gamer Multiverse, Part 4
Early June 2026, Lunar universe, Brazil, Rio de Janeiro, UNI-SHOCKER headquarters
Within the massive headquarters' facility of UNI-SHOCKER, the evil world conquering multiverse organization, we find two massive armored warriors in the room with one armored warrior's armor designed like cheetah while the other's armor is designed like hippo.
The warrior with the cheetah style armor says, "Well, Grandton, it looks like Lunar has become bold!"
The warrior with hippo designed armor retorts, "That's not surprising since the failed operation at 'Prime-One'. I knew that it was a mistake, C-Zero."
The warrior with cheetah style armor, C-Zero, says, "We shouldn't have focused on Lunar so much that we would have missed out on other 'resistance movements'."
The warrior with hippo designed armor, Grandton, responds, "It shouldn't be surprising that we focused on Kamen Rider Lunar since he was the greatest threat. Remember, he was created with our own technology. This world's Sailor Moon managed to put on over on us."
C-Zero says, with a snarl, "Don't remind me. It seems like Sailor Moon and the Sailor Scouts seem to be our main problem these days. We defeat this world's Sailor Moon and her guardians so easily, but when we faced ones in other worlds, we're getting our asses handed to us and everything is going sideways!"
Grandton says, "That's because the Sailor Moon in other worlds seems to be tougher than the one in this world though this one was smarter than they are. Thanks to that 'death game', the Sailor Moons in those worlds have gained some skills namely swordsmanship skills. Despite them being improvised, it works. There is also that Valkyrie Sailor Scout powers. It is at a level that we didn't see until recently."
C-Zero says, "Yeah, they really got the drop on us!"
Just then a female voice calls out, "You got that right!" The two armored warriors gasp in shock from the voice and they hear a drilling sound in which they look down to see the floor crumbling at their feet, but before they could say or do anything, the floor collapses and the two of them crash through a massive hole in the floor. From the hole, we hear sounds of explosions and yelps of the two armored warriors of pain and agony. When the sounds of attacks stop, Sailor Mars, Talia, in her battle armor, Stella, in her new form of Cure Celestial, Sailor Orion, Izzy, Sora, Mimi, Joe, Cody, Tentomon, Biyomon, Lillymon, Gomamon, and Digmon emerge from the hole.
Lillymon says, "Well, that was easy."
Joe says, with a sigh, "Don't say that. It usually makes things worse."
Mimi tells Joe, "Oh, Joe. That only happens on television."
Cody says, "Well, let's be careful around this place."
Sailor Orion says, with a nod, "Indeed. We are deep in enemy territory. And this is facility is like a small city into itself."
Izzy says, nodding his head, "Our counterparts were right to call this place a fortress."
Sailor Mars shakes her head and Sora asks her, "Are you okay?"
Sailor Mars replies, "Yeah, but amount of spiritual, mystical, and supernatural energies is a bit overwhelming. They are gathering all sorts of stuff and it is making my senses get all messed up. I'm sure that Uranus is in the same boat as me."
Izzy says, "Oh, wow. They must have 'potent energies' of all sorts in her to cause your spiritual senses to go haywire."
Cody says, plainly, "And that's not a good thing at all."
Sailor Mars retorts, with a nod, "No joke, Cody. But I'm not surprised with what Yui told us."
Digmon says, "No kidding! Trying to gain control of all existence or something like that? That's nuts!"
Sailor Orion says, "We are dealing with an organization that wants domination over worlds and their people. It isn't too surprising." This group of our heroes and heroines then goes over to a locked door in which Talia and Izzy work on opening it while the others protect them.
Cure Celestial asks, "How is it going girlfriend?"
Talia responds, "Not easy, you know. They are really got top of the line technology here."
Izzy says, nodding his head in agreement, "Indeed. The level of programming and defenses is quite incredible."
Joe says, with a sigh, "Please don't tell me that you are impressed with them."
Gomamon tells Joe, "Come on, Joe, lighten up." Just then the door opens in which immediately our group goes inside with the door closing behind them causing our group to become wide-eyed at what they see.
(Elsewhere in the facility; a brief time afterwards)
Within another part of the facility, we rejoin Sailor Moon's group, now joined by Rin, Shirou, Archer, Saber, Chole, and Mash, where we find Tuxedo Mask creating masses of thorny vines to entrap a mass of stone golems where Kazuto, now looking like his SAO avatar of Kirito and having a golden crescent moon sigil on his forehead, cutting through them with his two swords, Elucidator and Dark Repulser, with ease. On the meanwhile, Sailor Nebula and Sailor Moon take down the last two golems, but Sailor Moon is breathing heavily.
Sailor Star asks, seeing this, "Serena-chan?"
Sailor Moon says, with a weak smile, "I'm okay."
Tuxedo Mask tells Sailor Moon, "No, you aren't."
Kazuto says, nodding his head, "I have to agree. You haven't recovered from our last fight with the enemy."
Sailor Nebula adds in, nodding her head in agreement with Kazuto, "I agree too. You've exhausted a lot of power and you haven't recovered any of your strength."
Sailor Moon says, "Yeah, I know. Back in the day, I would have loved a chance to take a break from something like this. But that was then, and this is now. Not with Sugu, Sammy, and our friends, if not everything that we love and care on, among the whole multiverse, on the line."
Tuxedo Mask tells Sailor Moon, in a pleading tone, "Try to take it easy, Meatball Head."
Sailor Moon says, with a smile, "I'll try." But then Kazuto's and Sailor Moon's 'danger sense' goes off and Sailor Moon says, "Oh, man. Give us a break."
Kazuto says, "Here comes trouble." Just then one of the walls in the hallway that our group is in bursts open in which an armored warrior with armor in the shape of elephant stomps out.
Shirou says, shocked, "He's huge!"
The armored warrior says, with a sly tone, "That's far enough! You little mice have caused us enough trouble!"
Yolei asks, "Call me crazy, but aren't elephants scared of mice?"
Hawkmon tells Yolei, nervously, "I don't think that this is the time."
The armored warrior yells out, "I am Omegaton and you will find that I'm not so easily defeated! Give it your best shot! I dare you!"
Kazuto says, annoyed, "We don't have time for this." Unexpectedly and usually out of character for her, Sailor Moon attacks first with her versions of Elucidator and Dark Repulser.
Sailor Nebula says, worriedly, "Serena, wait!" However, it is too late as Sailor Moon swings her swords into the armored warrior's, Omegaton's, armored waist causing a loud 'CLANG' to be heard where Sailor Moon yelps as her arms wildly shake as she stumbles backwards to the others where she drops her swords while holding her greatly shaking hands.
Tuxedo Mask goes over to her and he asks, concerned, "Are you okay?"
Sailor Moon responds, "Um, no! That really hurt! My wrists nearly broke from that!"
Omegaton laughs haughty and he says, "Nice try, Moon brat! But my armor is laced with materials that have mana defection and absorption properties."
Rin's eyes grow wide and she says, "But that means…"
Omegaton says, with a sly grin, "That's right. It means that all mana-based attacks are worthless meaning and the same goes for mystical weapons like your swords for example."
Yolei says, nervously, "Well, that stinks."
Omegaton says, "Don't think that your Force attacks will work either. My armor produces an energy field similar to ysalamari that repels that kind of 'power'."
Yolei says, annoyed, "Oh, great."
Kazuto asks, curiously, "Is it only magic and Force based attacks that this armor protects you from?"
Omegaton responds, "You must be shocked with horror! Oh, yes, it is!"
Kazuto asks, curiously, "Really?" Yolei, Ken, and their two Digimon look at Kazuto in shock at how calmly he is talking to Omegaton.
Omegaton asks, annoyed, "I already gave my answer fool! Why do you ask?"
"Lightning Style: Lightning Judgment!"
Omegaton gets his answers when a burst of lightning bolts slam into him causing him to scream out in pain and agony as he is shocked and when the lightning 'dispels', Omegaton's form is smoking in which he collapses onto the floor on his back with a 'thud'.
Kazuto says, with a shrug, "No reason really." Everyone then looks to find that it was Sailor Moon, who has one of her arms crackling with electricity, was the one to launch the attack.
Yolei says, with a winch, "Ouch. That had to hurt." Kazuto walks over to Omegaton, summons out an Oblivion Keyblade, and uses it to cut off one of the 'tusks' of Omegaton's armor.
Kazuto tells Sailor Star, "We should bring this to Washu to get a good scan of this."
Kazuto throws the armor piece to Sailor Star and she says, nervously while catching the armor piece, "R-Right." Sailor Star puts the armor piece away as Ken is using his armor's scanner to scan Omegaton.
Ken says, "He isn't as busted as we think. Well, his armor anyway. It seems like it has a lot of surge protection and anti-EMP defenses."
Yolei says, "It shouldn't be surprising." Sailor Moon returns her swords to their sheaths and she takes a deep breath.
Sailor Nebula asks Sailor Moon, "Are you going to be okay?"
Sailor Moon says, with a smile, "Yes, I'm fine."
Ritsuka asks, "How did you do that?"
Sailor Moon replies, "I just defeated him without using mystical based attacks that's all."
Rin yells out, "No way! How can you conjure elemental lightning without using mana?"
Sailor Nebula says, a bit nervously, "Let's just say that we have our ways."
Tuxedo Mask says, "We should neutralize his armor since most likely he may recover."
Ken says, "I already have a solution from Washu." A slot opens in Ken's armor around the right side of the waist and from this slot, Ken takes out devices causing him to say, "Washu created these devices just in case we find weapons and technology designed for fighting against Serena and the others. Not surprising they would since they fought versions of them before including Valkyrie Sailor Scout versions." Ken attaches the devices to Omegaton, and the devices causes his armor to spark and short-circuit.
Wormmon says, with a smile, "Good work."
Kazuto says, "Now, they will have to rebuild that armor from the ground up and I'm willing to bet such materials aren't too common to find."
Yolei says, nervously, "I hope not."
After picking up her swords that she dropped earlier, Sailor Moon says, "Let's get out of here. Suguha and Sammy are waiting for us."
Kazuto says, with a nod, "Good idea." Immediately, the group heads off leaving the unconscious form of Omegaton, his armor completely disabled behind.
(In another part of the facility; around the same time)
Within the massive hanger part of the headquarters facility of UNI-SHOCKER filled with all sorts of sci-fi/futuristic weapons is where we find Valkyrie Sailor Scouts Saturn, Neptune, and Pluto, Davis, Valkyrie Sailor Sun, TK, Ark Valkyrie Sailor Venus, Magnamon, MagnaAngemon, and Angewomon battling against the forces that UNI-SHOCKER sent to face them here including Lancer AKA Cu Chulainn in an intense fight with Sailor Pluto using her Garnet Staff in a similar manner to Cu Chulainn using his Gae Bolg. He then activates his Noble Phantasm, his said spear, in which Sailor Pluto blocks with her staff, but due to its causality reversal effect, the defected attack 'rewinds' back to strike Sailor Pluto in the heart, however, she vanishes in a blur just before the attack hits her in the heart. Lancer then rolls out of the way of upward strike from behind him by Sailor Pluto and turns to face his opponent again.
Lancer asks, "Hey, I thought that you couldn't stop time?"
Sailor Pluto responds, with a sly smile, "I can't. However, I am ONLY NOT ALLOWED to stop time, but I am allowed to speed up or slow down anyone's time as long as time flow in general isn't effected."
Lancer says, with a smirk, "Clever trick." Sailor Pluto and Lancer continue their intense fight while the others have to deal with the remaining enemy forces with this area including the young lady riding the Pegasus where the young lady uses the Pegasus to attack Sailor Saturn, but she defends with her shield. However, the power of the attack is strong enough to shatter Sailor Saturn's shield in which Sailor Saturn is sent flying into a group of containers where they are knocked over with several of them opening.
Sailor Neptune says, worriedly, "Firefly!"
Sailor Sun says, worriedly, "Neptune, watch out!" Sailor Neptune then barely dodges the nail-like dagger connected to the chain from the young lady.
Davis says, annoyed, "This is getting fun!"
Magnamon says, sarcastically, "No joke!"
"Hyper Cannon!"
Soon after, our heroes and heroines barely manage to dodge shells from several Tankmon that emerge from the shadows to attack them.
Sailor Venus says, "Uh oh!"
TK says, pointing in another direction, "Uh oh is right! We have company!" Everyone, minus the stunned Sailor Saturn and Sailor Pluto, locked in combat with Lancer, looks to find that behind the Tankmon, they find massive armored men and women coming towards them, but our heroes and heroines quickly notice that all of the men look the same along with all of the armored female opponents also look the same, despite minor differences.
MagnaAngemon says, "Those people…I'm not sure that they are people…"
Angewomon says, "They look exactly the same."
Sailor Neptune then uses her mirror and she gasps at what she sees causing her to say, "They aren't human!" Everyone, minus Saturn and Pluto, look at Sailor Neptune causing her to say, seriously, "They're homunculus! Artificial life-forms created through alchemy!"
There are surprised looks and TK says, "That explains that." The Tankmon and the homunculus troops then fire on our heroes and heroines in which they immediately dodge where they are thrown onto the defensive due to sheer numbers giving them significant firepower. Sailor Saturn, once she regains her senses, sees what happens and struggles to get back into the fight where she touches a strange 'crystal' shaped like a blue tear of flame in which there is a bright glow when she touches the 'crystal' causing a bright light to fill the whole of the area.
This stops all of the fighting in the area and Lancer asks, confused, "What the?"
Noticing Sailor Saturn by the ever-growing light, Sailor Pluto says, "Firefly…" Just then everyone is forced to cover their eyes from the light, but the light quickly fades as it appears. When everyone is able to see, they find someone new by our Sailor Scout of Death and Rebirth.
This new 'person' seems to be a gorgeous young woman with long purple hair that runs past her back and is blue at the tips in which her hair is styled in Chinese-styled buns that are constantly ablaze in a blue flame, along with a blue heart shaped mark on her forehead, which is mostly covered by hair, her eyes are closed, and she is wearing a purple, long dress that is opened and has black frills at the ends which helps to emphases her tall, slender, and has a very curvaceous figure, possessing large breasts, and wide hips though not in any obscene way, her 'exposed arms and legs' are covered in blue crystal that are shaped-like flames, and she is wearing a belt that contains a dagger and several glow sticks across her waist. In her each of her hands is a sword with black-grey blades with blue 'creases' in the blades.
Sailor Saturn asks, stunned, "Who are you?"
The new 'person' says, "I am Brighid, your new Blade, my lady."
Sailor Saturn asks, confused, "Blade?"
The new 'person', Brighid, says, "Your reaction tells me that you have no knowledge of Blades. This is quite…perplexing." Brighid turns towards the homunculus soldiers causing her to say, "However, I believe that this isn't the time for explanations. So, my lady, allow me to demonstrate my might to you." Brighid's two swords then separate into multiple sections linked by chain, revealing that they are a whip-sword/whip-blade, in which she uses them to unleash powerful blue flames causing the homunculus soldiers to scream out as they are engulfed by the blue flames. The Tankmon are so surprised that they are distracted allowing the three Digimon to easily take them out. The young lady on the Pegasus then focuses their attention on the newcomer, Brighid, and Sailor Saturn.
Sailor Sun says, "I don't think so! Sun Shining Purification!" Sailor Sun's broach opens up and unleashes a powerful burst of powerful purifying sunlight on the young lady causing her to scream out as a 'dark mist' leaves her body causing her to fall off the Pegasus, which vanishes, while the young lady's outfit changes into a Japanese style school uniform with the blindfold over her eyes gone with the young lady going unconscious as a strange card comes out of her body. Sailor Sun flies over to grab the young lady, but the young lady vanishes through teleportation in which Sailor Sun only catches the card which Sailor Sun finds similar to the Saber and Caster cards, however, this one has the name 'Rider' on it. Just then the card glows and before anything could be said or done, the card absorbs into Sailor Sun's broach causing her to gasp in which where Sailor Sun lands and touches her broach.
Davis leaps over to Sailor Sun and he asks, concerned, "Kari?!"
Sailor Sun responds, a bit nervously, "I'm…okay. I'm okay…I think."
TK asks, curiously, "Was that what I think it was?"
MagnaAngemon says, "It was another of those 'Class Cards'."
Angewomon asks Sailor Sun, concerned, "Are you okay, Kari?"
Sailor Sun replies, "Yes, I am, Angewomon. Just surprised."
Sailor Neptune says, "Unfortunately, we don't have time to examine her. Just be careful." Sailor Sun can only nod her head and can't help to wonder the card that was 'absorbed' into her.
Seeing the whole event from Brighid's appears to what happened to the young woman on the Pegasus, Lancer is shocked causing him to say, "That's something you don't see in any era." Lancer then gains a wide smile where he says, "This is starting to get really interesting." Just then Lancer's eyes widen causing Sailor Pluto, who was preparing to continue her fight, in which she sees Lancer smirk as he leaps back as several homunculus soldiers run and take aim at Sailor Pluto, but then Lancer spins around and strikes them down without hesitation causing surprise to Sailor Pluto.
Just then Sailor Pluto says, plainly, "It seems like your master has been freed."
Lancer replies, with a smirk, "Yep! You can thank your little friends for that! She just gave me my first order and it was a pleasure! But I've got to go! My master isn't a girl that you want to piss off! Later!" Lancer then vanishes as he goes into 'spiritual form' while Sailor Pluto walks over to the others, who are now joined by the newcomer, Brighid.
Sailor Venus says, "Something tells me that you aren't human."
Davis tells Sailor Venus, sarcastically, "What was your first clue?"
Brighid says, with a kind bow, "I am Brighid, a Blade, and I am the Blade of Hotaru Tomoe, who is now my Driver."
Sailor Saturn asks, surprised, "You know my real name?"
Brighid says, with a nod, "Indeed, my Driver."
Davis asks, confused, "Whoa! Wait a minute! Blade? Driver?"
TK says, using his armor's canner, "From what I can scan, she is an artificial life-form and a very powerful one at that."
Sailor Pluto says, "Most likely, she is yet from another world."
Brighid says, "From the way that you are acting, like the lack of knowledge of Blades, like myself, I don't believe I am in my home world of Alrest anymore."
Sailor Pluto responds, "No, Brighid-san, you are on a world known as Earth."
Brighid asks, curiously, "Earth?"
Sailor Pluto says, with a nod, "Yes. And from the way that you speak, I'm sure why you are here, and I can say that we are on the same side."
Brighid replies, looking at Sailor Saturn, "If you are friends and allies of my Driver, then I am your ally as well."
Sailor Saturn says, with a nod, "Yes, they are my precious friends and family."
Brighid nods her head in understand causing Davis to say, with a nod, "Cool."
Sailor Sun says, "I hope that Tai and the others are okay."
Angewomon says, "I've got a feeling that they may not be as lucky as we are."
(Elsewhere in the facility; on the meanwhile)
Joining up with Sailor Mercury, Sailor Jupiter, Tai, Matt, WarGreymon, and MetalGarurumon, their situation proves Angewomon's words are right as they struggle to escape masses of familiar robot teddy bears with white left halves and black right halves with black left eye and white right eyes. We find Sailor Jupiter, with her lightning abilities, short-circuiting the Monokuma robots while Tai and Matt use their armor's weapons to blow apart dozens upon dozens of their opponents with MetalGarurumon using his weaponry to freeze them solid.
Tai says, annoyed, "I thought that we saw the last of these things!"
Sailor Jupiter says, with a nod, "No joke, Tai!" Matt's armor then produces a tiny missile launcher with a small missiles that he fires into the mass of Monokuma robots and after two seconds, a massive surge of energy hits them all causing them to short-circuit before denotating simultaneously.
WarGreymon says, amazed, "Whoa."
Tai says, with a nod, "You said it, buddy."
Matt says, "She is annoying, but she makes awesome stuff."
Sailor Jupiter says, "No argument from me." Sailor Jupiter asks Sailor Mercury, "Do you have the information?"
Sailor Mercury responds, with a nod, "Yes. I'm transmitting to the other teams."
Tai says, "That's good news at least."
Matt says, "Yeah, but we can't be sure that others are having the same level of 'luck' that we are."
(Back with Sailor Moon's group; a short time afterwards)
Joining up with Sailor Moon's team, we find them engaged by similar homunculus soldiers that Davis' team fought against in which every member of the group fight and all of them lie in heaps on the ground.
Sailor Moon asks, concerned, "They aren't alive, are they?"
Ken says, shaking his head, "No. These guys are 'animated' by cybernetics in their bodies. There is NO consciousness at all."
Kazuto says, plainly, "They must be trying to create 'biological robots' or something like that."
Tuxedo Mask says, "It would seem so."
The group continues to move, and Archer says, "They look similar to the homunculus used by the Einzbern."
Rin says, "Most likely, they stole Einzbern's knowledge of alchemy for this."
Shirou says, with a sneer, "It seems like they will do anything to get an advantage."
Rin says, plainly, "They're your typical bad guys. That's pretty obvious."
Archer says, looking at Chole, "At least it explains on how you have my and Shirou's abilities."
Chole says, with a smirk, "Even though I have a body of my own, thanks to them cloning my Illya, I still have the Archer card 'installed' in me."
Shirou says, "I'm amazed that you come from a world where the Holy Grail War never even started, and I have a normal life."
Rin tells Shirou, "That's not really surprising. If you wanted your family to have a normal life, would you keep your daughter from knowing about magecraft while teaching your adopted son?"
Shirou says, with a nervous smile, "I guess not."
Rin says, with a sneer, "What really gets to me is how these cards are created."
Shirou says, with a nod, "I feel the same way." Looking at Saber, he says, "They are Heroic Spirits, but they were once like us. It is just sick for them to be taken advantage of."
Saber says, with a smile, "Shirou…"
Rin says, "That's the Ainsworths for you. I'm not surprised that a version of them would do such a thing."
Chole says, "I'm surprised that you have a version of them in your world…Or should I say, WORLDS."
Rin says, plainly, "The Ainsworths are pretty much the same as the ones that you know. They were once an 'elite' mage family with their mastery of dolls bringing them to the top, but they fell by the wayside with the Einzbern and their homunculi. Homunculi proved to be superior to dolls and Ainsworths, the ones from my world, fell from grace. There are rumors about the head of the family, but they are just rumors."
Shirou asks Chole, "Do you have any idea where your version of Illya and your friends are?"
Chole responds, "Not one bit. I don't know what happened to the others, but all I do know is that they have my Illya and Miyu held captive. Most likely, due to the fact that Sapphire and Ruby can be used by them."
Archer says, with a nod, "They want to know about those Mystic Codes because they are made by the second True Magic held by your version of Kischur Zelretch Schweinorg."
Rin says, with a nod, "Any Mystic Code created by any version of him would be incredibly powerful since his magic allows him to tap into parallel worlds."
Archer says, "Which is why you are very open to the fact that our new allies come from completely alternate universes."
Rin says, "Duh, Archer! It is quite obvious that since parallel worlds exist than completely 'alternate universes' exist."
Shirou asks Saber, "What do you think of all this?"
Saber responds, in her usual plain tone, "I'm not sure what to think Shirou. However, while Gilgamesh is a very boastful type, I can see that he wasn't lying at all, especially their reaction. You can't fake the way that their emotional response to his taunting. Their eyes also showed that Gilgamesh's 'story' about them is true. I can tell that they are hardened warriors…and they have seen death." Shirou's eyes widen at Saber's remark as they group arrives at an intersection that cuts into six separate passageways.
Yolei asks, curiously, "Now which way?"
Just then there a beeping sound coming from Sailor Nebula and everyone looks at her in which she takes out a computer causing her to say, "I've got information from Mercury! She has the exact location of everyone especially Suguha and Sammy!"
There are gasps from our heroes and heroines and Sailor Moon asks, concerned, "Where, Nebula?"
Sailor Nebula responds, "Close to the area where Yui believed."
Kazuto says, with a grin, "I knew that even guessing that Yui-chan would be right."
Sailor Star says, with a proud smile, "Yes."
Sailor Nebula says, pointing to one passageway, "We need to take that passageway!"
Kazuto says, seriously, "Let's go!" However, before they could head off, they hear footsteps coming from the passageway and out of the passageway, Kazuto, Sailor Star, and Sailor Moon are shocked to see none other than Kuradeel, the member of the Knights of the Blood Oath that betrayed the SAO guild for Laughing Coffin and the one that nearly murdered Kazuto after taking out another KOB member, walking up to them.
Sailor Star asks, shocked, "Kuradeel?"
Kuradeel responds, with an evil smirk, "Hello, vice-commander. Long time no see."
Chole asks, curiously, "Friend of yours?"
Kazuto says, "Someone that we know, but he is no friend. In fact, he should be dead."
Ritsuka asks, surprised, "Wait! What?"
Kuradeel says, with a wicked smirk, "That's right, beater boy. I am dead because of you, but now, I'm back from the grave to get my revenge. If you want to find your precious sister, you have got to get through me. Tick, tock, beater brat. It makes me wonder what kind of sick experiments that they are doing to your sister and that witch's poor little brother right now." Sailor Moon's eyes widen and Kazuto's eyes narrow as he draws his swords from his back.
Sailor Star says, concerned, "Wait, Kirito-kun!"
Kazuto responds, with a serious tone, "This battle is mine, Asuna. It is time that I get rid of this 'ghost' once and for all!" Kazuto then charges in with Kuradeel charging in turn in which Kuradeel's two-handed sword clashes with Kazuto's swords.
Kazuto and Kuradeel stare down each other and Kuradeel says, with an evil smile, "I'm glad that you have embraced this part of you again! This is the you that I want to fight! That I want to kill! The Black Swordsman that humiliated me! The Black Swordsman that took my life!"
Kazuto shouts out, strongly, "After you betrayed your guild, your comrades, murdering one of them, and trying to murder Asuna in cold blood, Kuradeel! You aren't getting your revenge, Kuradeel! No, you are getting what you deserve!" Kazuto then rams his kneecap into Kuradeel's waist and even under the armor, the sheer strength of the attack causing Kuradeel to stumble back.
Kuradeel yells out, angrily, "Worthless bastard!" Kuradeel and Kazuto clash their swords as they did back in SAO through with more intensity than before, but like their duel in SAO, Kuradeel comes down with an overhead strike with Kazuto using one of his swords to hit the side of Kuradeel's sword causing it to shatter to pieces.
Shirou says, amazed, "He…He shattered his sword!"
Archer says, with a scoff, "That's not surprising. That sword was all style and no substance."
Kuradeel gives a shocked and angered look on his face and Kazuto says, "You haven't changed one bit, Kuradeel. You choose looks over practicality. And it has cost you. You're done."
Kuradeel then gives an evil smile and he retorts, "Am I?" Kuradeel then vanishes in whips of smoke causing everyone to gasp.
Sailor Star asks, shocked, "He's gone!"
Sailor Nebula asks, "An illusion?!"
Tuxedo Mask says, seriously, "No, I don't think so!"
Hawkmon asks, "My words, did he teleport?" Kazuto looks around for Kuradeel and then his 'danger sense' goes wild, but it is too late as Kuradeel appears right behind him and attacks with his restored two-handed sword.
Sailor Moon yells out, shocked, "Kirito!" Kazuto turns only to see the sword about to cut off his head, but then Sailor Star zips in with Linear and strikes Kuradeel in the unarmored portion of his left shoulder causing him to stumble back before he vanishes the same way as before.
Sailor Star asks, concerned, "Are you okay, Kirito-kun?"
Kazuto responds, with a nod, "Fine, thanks to you." But then Kuradeel reappears in Sailor Star's blind spot and Kazuto yells out, worriedly upon seeing this, "Asuna!" Sailor Star turns only to see the blade of Kuradeel's sword heading for her head, but it is knocked away in the nick of time by Sailor Moon's Dark Repulser causing Kuradeel to stumble back before he is kicked in the waist by Kazuto causing to slam into the wall behind him where he vanishes again.
Sailor Moon asks, confused, "Again?"
Sailor Nebula yells out, "Serena! Kazuto! Asuna!" Sailor Moon, Sailor Star, and Kazuto look towards Sailor Nebula where she tells them, "He isn't alive! He is a materialized soul!"
Sailor Moon asks, shocked, "Say what?"
Kazuto asks, surprised, "You mean…?"
Kazuto looks at Archer and Saber causing Sailor Nebula to say, with a nod, "That's right! He is a spirit given physical substance!"
Sailor Star, Sailor Moon, and Yolei give a bit of a shiver and Yolei asks, a bit nervously, "Seriously?"
Kazuto tells Sailor Star and Sailor Moon, "Kuradeel isn't a ghost!" Sailor Star and Sailor Moon look at Kazuto causing him to say, seriously, "Not exactly! If Kuradeel is like Saber and Archer, he can be hurt!" Sailor Moon and Sailor Star give looks of realization as Kazuto continue to speak by saying, "He isn't teleporting! He must be going into some kind of 'spirit form' and that means that he can't hurt us until he goes into his 'physical form'!"
Sailor Moon asks, curiously, "Well, how are we going to find him?"
Kazuto tells Sailor Moon, "You and I can do it, Usagi. He hates Asuna and I A LOT and that's what's going to give him away. We need to focus." Sailor Moon gains realization at what Kazuto is implying causing her to nod her head in which the two of them close their eyes.
Shirou asks, confused, "What are they doing?" Sailor Moon and Kazuto focus and then two of them sense Kuradeel's malice and hatred in which Sailor Moon attacks where it is coming from. When Kuradeel appears, he is surprised to find Sailor Moon attacking him and he barely blocks her strike before 'vanishing' again. After several seconds, Kazuto then senses where Kuradeel is.
Kazuto yells out, "Asuna, duck now!" Sailor Star reacts practically instantly and ducks as Kuradeel reappears, but all his sword manages to hit is air in which Kazuto bashes him in the face with Flashblow, breaking Kuradeel's nose causing him to yelp as he 'vanishes' once more.
Sailor Moon says, annoyed, "Not again!"
Tuxedo Mask says, with a serious tone, "This must be a delaying action!"
Kazuto says, seriously, "Darien's right! This has to be a ploy to keep us here! We need to move now!"
Sailor Moon asks, confused, "How?" Sailor Moon says, "He's still here! I can sense him!"
Kazuto says, "Yeah, the ass hasn't concealed his hatred of us. The only way to get by him is to take him down with one strike."
Sailor Star asks, "Take him down? Kirito-kun, you mean…?"
Kazuto says, with a nod, "Yeah…" Sailor Moon's and Sailor Star's eyes widen at that remark, but then Kazuto notices his Elucidator is glowing causing him to ask, perplexed, "Huh?" Kazuto's Elucidator then transforms into Fatal Crest Keyblade causing him to get wide-eyed as an image forms in his mind, but then he senses 'something causing him to yell out, "Usagi, to your right!" Sailor Moon quickly leaps away as Kuradeel reappears to attack, but his attack only hits air while Kazuto uses his Keyblade to shoot a beam of 'light' into Kuradeel's chest causing his form to become static-like.
Kuradeel grunts out, angrily, "You…You wretched…beater…what did you…?!" However, Kuradeel groans out as he vanishes in a flash and afterwards, the others go over to Kazuto.
Ken asks Kazuto, "What did you do?"
Kazuto says, "I disrupted his 'form'…at least for the time being. Don't ask me how I did that because I'm not sure." Kazuto's Fatal Crest Keyblade then 'transforms' back into Elucidator.
Yolei says, "This just get weirder and weirder."
Just then Yui's voice calls out, "Mommy! Daddy! Auntie Usagi!"
Sailor Star takes out her communicator causing her to say, activating it, "Yui-chan!"
Yui says, "Mommy, it is good to hear from you! I've got news from Mercury's team! They have managed get exact details where Auntie Leafa and the others are being kept here!"
Kazuto says, excitedly, "That's great, Yui!"
Yui says, "I can't talk long since their defenses have gotten stronger and Strea and I need to leave now. They know that we are here faster than we expected!"
There are gasps and Sailor Star asks, "Are you in immediate danger?"
Yui responds, "Not for now, Mommy. However, Mercury found out some information. Your team is being tracked as we speak!"
There are more gasps causing Yolei to ask, "Say what?"
Yui replies, "It's true. We have information that ever since your battle with that Gilgamesh character, you have been tracked by UNI-SHOCKER forces."
Kazuto then says, glaring at Chole, "That's very interesting information."
Chole asks, nervously, "W-Why are you looking at me?" Chole was about to step back, but she finds herself frozen in which she says, "Hey, I can't move!"
Ritsuka asks, "What's going on here?"
Tuxedo Mask goes over to Chole where he says, "That's what we're going to find out."
Tuxedo Mask looks over her causing Chole to say, a bit annoyed yet nervously, "Hey, what do you think you are doing?" Soon after, Tuxedo Mask removes listening devices and tracking devices from her hair.
There are looks of shock and Ken says, "Those are tracking and listening devices!"
Mash asks, "Chole-san, what's the meaning of this?"
Chole gives a sigh causing her to say, "Okay, I was forced to be a spy just in case an invasion happened. I played the part of the 'hostage' and get 'rescued' in which I get imbedded as a spy. I didn't have to do anything. I have to let those bugs that they put on me do all the work."
There are looks of surprise and Ritsuka asks, "How could you Chole?"
Chole replies, with a smile, "Hey, while my 'sister' annoys me, we used to be one and the same person. Plus, I have to admit that I like Miyu since she and I are very much the same. We're were 'made' to be Holy Grails after all." Chole says, with a smirk, "However, while these dorks were expecting an attack, they were expecting one after a long time and not a two-pronged attack of attackers on the outside and you, guys, on the inside!"
Kazuto says, with a nod of understand, "So, back at the VR room, it was all improvised."
Chole says, with a grin, "Bingo!"
Tuxedo Mask destroys the devices causing him to ask, "So, whose side are you on?"
Chole retorts, with a smirk, "Really? Do you need to ask that?"
Kazuto says, with a smile, "As long as we are on the same page."
Rin asks, annoyed, "Seriously?"
Kazuto says, "She didn't have any choice. Her family and friends were being held hostage."
Ritsuka says, with a smile, "I agree, Kazuto-san."
Yui's voice says, "Well, Chole-san doesn't have to worry. One of the teams just called in and two of the people rescued are two young girls of around her age named Illya and Miyu."
Chole gives a look of surprise and Kazuto says, with a smile, "I think that settles that."
Yui says, "Daddy, there is more! You need to know this! We just found out that Auntie Leafa and Uncle Sammy are missing!"
There are looks of shock and Sailor Moon asks, stunned, "Missing?"
Yui responds, "Yes, Auntie Usagi. We have the locations on exactly where they are being held, but recently, they have gone missing. The lab where Uncle Sammy was attacked, and video footage seems to show that the lab where Auntie Leafa was being held was attacked as well. However, none of our teams were anywhere near those locations and I have confirmed from Washu that no additional teams were sent in at those moments!"
Tuxedo Mask says, "That means that there are 'other forces' other than us going through this facility."
Yui says, "It might be possible that it was Naruto, Hinata, and Sakura, however. They managed to escape since they managed to hide a special device given to them by Washu."
Sailor Moon takes out her communicator causing Kazuto tell Sailor Moon, "It won't work. Their communicators won't have the modification that ours have to work in here."
Sailor Moon says, with a nod, "Right."
Kazuto asks Yui, "Yui, do you have any idea on where they could be?"
Yui replies, solemnly, "Sorry, Daddy. The information doesn't say. It seems like UNI-SHOCKER has lost track for them."
Sailor Nebula says, "It is easy to explain why for Naruto, Sakura, and Hinata, but that doesn't explain what happened to Suguha and Sammy."
Sailor Moon says, "But that means that we may have new allies that are helping us." Sailor Moon thinks in her mind, a bit concerned, "At least, I hope so."
Kazuto tells Yui, "Yui, you and Strea get out of their systems. Evacuate as planned!"
Yui says, "Understood, Daddy."
Strea's voice booms from Sailor Star's communicator, excitedly, "You got it!"
After Sailor Star deactivates her communicator, she asks, "What do we do now?"
Kazuto says, "That's a good question."
Ritsuka asks, "Do you think that there could be other people helping us?"
Tuxedo Mask says, "I wish to think so, but there are too many unknowns to think that way."
Sailor Nebula asks, "What do we do now?"
Ken says, "I say that we continue onto the labs where Suguha and Sammy were being held and see if there are any clues that can help us find them. Maybe, along the way, we could meet up with them. Since Naruto, Hinata, and Sakura escaped, it is possible that they rescued them."
Kazuto says, with a nod, "Good idea."
Yolei says, looking at Archer, "By the way, why haven't you gone back to 'spirit form'? No insult to Shirou-san, I know the situation with Saber-dono, but you should be able to do that."
Archer says, "The problem is that I can't right now. After I returned to physical form, it seems like I'm unable to return to 'spirit form'."
Sailor Nebula asks, confused, "Why is that?"
Rin says, with a sigh, "The problem is me. Those bastards did something to me. I can't control my mana as well as I did before."
Ken uses his armor to scan Rin and Shirou causing him to say, his eyes widen, "And here is the reason why: Your mana levels have gone to outrageous levels!"
Sailor Star asks Ken, "Really?"
Ken says, with a nod, "Yeah."
Saber says, with a plain tone, "I thought so. The amount of mana that's coming from Shirou seems to have increased greatly and my mana levels has quickly restored them nearly instantly."
Ken says, "Whatever they did to the two of you, it allows you to use levels of 'magic' that no one in your world should be able to do, but your bodies have completely adjusted to these immense mana levels without any problem."
Rin says, annoyed, "Without any problem? The problem is it feels like I'm starting over again!" Rin then says, focusing mana into her right hand's ring finger, "But then again, I'm already adapting to it."
Archer asks Rin, curiously, "You are?"
Shirou says, with a smile, "Not surprising for someone like you, Rin."
Rin says, in her classic tsundere manner, "Of course it shouldn't be! I'm the heir of the Tohsaka family and I worked my butt off to get where I am!" Rin then says, curiously, "But it is also strange. I feel like I have much more control over my mana. A level of control that no mage has ever had, and it feels so natural to me."
Archer tells Rin, "Be careful, Rin. You know what they say about 'absolute power'."
Rin says, in her classic tsundere manner, "I know that! But I will take your advice into consideration. You do have an excellent point and all."
Shirou and Archer smile at Rin, but Kazuto says, plainly, "I don't like this." Everyone looks at Kazuto and he says, "It seems like these people are diving into everything: Magic, spiritualism, supernatural, and 'other stuff' including advanced technology. They've gathered items of incredible power in this place and they are creating space-time gateways to various other worlds."
Yolei says, with a nod of understanding, "The multiverse is already in trouble with the situation back at home, but these guys are proving to be a real pain in the butt especially with two of the items that we need to save our home."
Hawkmon says, "Not to mention their attack on us and the kidnapping of our friends."
Ken says, with a smile, "If Davis was here, he would be saying that we should be doing our job: Saving everyone and kicking the 'bad guy's butts'."
Yolei says, with a smirk, "Yep."
Shirou asks, curiously, "Are you heroes where you came from?"
Quite a number of our world-crossing heroes and heroines get nervous from that question, but Sailor Moon responds, solemnly, "No. Not even close. I can't speak for the others, but I'm certainly no hero." Sailor Moon's beloved, 'royal brother', and her friends/comrades, human and Digimon, in this group give concerned looks as she starts to walk off.
Mash asks Ritsuka, curiously, "Master?"
Ritsuka tells Mash, "It is really complicated Mash."
Kazuto says, plainly, "We should move on." Soon enough, the others follow along in which Archer and Saber can't help to gain a serious look when they are looking at the rear of our Moon Princess.
(With Sailor Uranus and Sonic; on the meanwhile)
In another part of the UNI-SHOCKER facility, Sonic and Sailor Uranus are still causing all sorts of havoc using their super-speed to speed all over the massive headquarters facility, unleash hit-and-run attacks, and planting explosives among other things.
Sonic says, standing on top of what looks like a T-800 Terminator, "Ha! That's one thousand and twenty-seven!"
Sailor Uranus says, crushing the head of a destroy B-1 battle droid, "One thousand and twenty-eight!"
Sonic says, shocked, "No way!"
Sailor Uranus says, with a grin, "Yes, way."
Sonic says, with a smirk, "Well, I'll be catching up soon enough. It is a good thing that we managed to get those poor guys and gals out of here. Now, we can have our contest and find out the fastest of the multiverse in which you are looking at him."
Sailor Uranus says, with a grin, "We'll see about that." Sailor Uranus and Sonic then see a pair of doors that has the words 'Top Secret' on it where Sailor Uranus deadpans causing her to ask, annoyed, "Seriously?"
Sonic tells Sailor Uranus, with a shrug, "You know how it is." Sonic says, with a smirk, "But even if it is a trap, I say that we should spring it! It will be a blast!"
Sailor Uranus says, with a sigh, "Same as ever." Sailor Uranus says, with a plain tone, "But like it or not, we had better see what we can do here." Sonic gives a wide sly grin as the two of them then look at the door that they plan to go through.
(Back to Sailor Moon's group; later on)
Rejoining Sailor Moon's team, we find them within another 'empty' area and plenty of them on guard for obvious reasons.
Archer says, "This is like the room that you fought Gilgamesh."
Tuxedo Mask says, "A training room of some kind."
Kazuto says, plainly, "I don't like it. It is too quiet."
Ritsuka says, "Be careful, Mash."
Mash replies, with a nod, "Of course, Master."
Sailor Nebula asks Sailor Moon, "Do you 'feel' anything?"
Sailor Moon says, "Not a thing. But something about this area gives me the shivers."
Sailor Star says, with a nod, "It is like Kirito-kun said. It is too quiet. A perfect place for a trap."
Yolei asks, nervously, "Do you have to be so ominous Asuna?" Hawkmon and Yolei walk some distance away, but then a 'hole' opens up in the ground in which Yolei and Hawkmon scream out as they fall into said 'hole' which closes behind them.
Ken yells out, fearfully upon seeing this, "Yolei!"
Everyone assembles where Yolei and Hawkmon fell causing Kazuto to say, "Damn it! I knew it!"
Just then a female voice calls out, "And yet, you fall into the trap like the fools that you are."
There are gasps causing Rin to say, surprised, "That voice!" Everyone looks to the source of the voice to see someone wearing a bluish-black robe with a hood covering much of her face with only short blue hair bangs, pale skin, and violet colored lips to be seen.
Saber says, surprised, "Caster!"
The robe wearing person, none other than Caster AKA Medea, responds, "Saber. Archer. I see that you and your masters have escaped." Caster looks at Ritsuka and Mash causing her to say, "I see that the Master from the organization from that other timeline, Chaldea, and his Demi-Servant are here as well."
Rin asks, with a sneer, "Why am I not surprised that you are with these guys?"
Caster retorts, "And why not? The ability to truly gain my wishes by the 'element' that gave all of us 'being'? I was shocked to find out such a thing and to find out that such a girl was its 'guardian', but I must say that she is proven a powerful warrior. When I witnessed her actions on the moon, her powers were 'restricted' and yet, she proved a powerful warrior in body and spirit. A worthy 'vessel' for Etherion."
Kazuto says, with a sneer, "So, Mina was right! Those were your golems that attacked us!"
Caster says, with a nod, "That's correct, young son of moon. They were indeed." Caster says, "I wonder how much pain I can inflict on the avatar of Aphrodite by causing the person that she cares for most other than her beloved pain."
Caster glares at Sailor Moon and Sailor Nebula says, "Hold on! We come from another world! It was your universe's Aphrodite that cursed you, not the one that's the matriarch for the royal family of Venus of our universe."
Caster responds, with a sneer, "It doesn't matter. No matter what universe, the wretched goddess is still who she is. True, your friend has no role in my suffering, but she is still a daughter of Aphrodite and all she can do is curse her luck by being born of that goddess' blood."
Kazuto asks, "So, that's it? Base revenge?"
Caster responds, with a sly smile, "Actually, no. To be honest, while I hate that goddess, she is just a mere footnote in what I truly desire. When I was alive, my life was controlled by someone be it gods or humans. However, now, I have a chance for my own life, to fulfill my own wishes, and no one to control my life other than myself. That's what concerns me. However, while revenge means nothing to me, my new ally doesn't feel the same way."
Sailor Moon asks, curiously, "Ally?"
Just then a familiar dark female voice says, "Me." There are gasps of shock from our world-hopping heroes and heroines and everyone turns to the source only for Sailor Moon to gasp as she is lifted into the air by her neck with the hand around her neck owned by none other than Yuuko. Yuuko tells Sailor Moon, in a dark plain tone, "You are mine."
Kazuto asks, shocked, "Yuuko?" As the others prepare to attack, Yuuko slams her foot into the ground creating a shockwave causing our heroes' and heroines' group to get knocked down to the ground before she zips over to another part of the room with Sailor Moon in toe.
When the others regain their senses, Mash asks Ritsuka, "Master, are you okay?"
Ritsuka says, with a nod, "Yeah…" On the meanwhile, Sailor Moon is violently thrown to the ground by Yuuko.
Yuuko tells Sailor Moon, "If you thought that you were done with me, you are far from mistaken." On the meanwhile, below the others, we find Yolei and Hawkmon down in some kind of storage room.
Hawkmon asks Yolei, "Are you okay?"
Yolei responds, "Just fine." Yolei asks Hawkmon, "Did you feel some kind of 'pull'?"
Hawkmon says, "I assuredly did, Yolei. Most likely, there was some kind of gravity field or tractor beam that pulled us down here."
Yolei says, with a sigh, "Yep. I figured that." Yolei and Hawkmon start to look around causing Yolei to ask, "Where are we now?"
Hawkmon says, "It looks like a storage room to me." Hawkmon then gasps looking in one direction and he says, nervously, "And I also believe that we are in what you call a 'sticky wicket'." Yolei turns to where Hawkmon is looking causing her to gasp when she sees a lot of battle droids surrounding herself and Hawkmon.
Yolei says, looking all around her, "Oh, crap! There are so many!"
Hawkmon says, nervously, "We are completely surrounded!" As the battle droids prepare to fight, Yolei is in a panic and looks around for any way of escape, but doesn't find one where one of her hands grabs onto an old sailing ship steering causing it to erupt with a burst of light that engulfs Yolei, Hawkmon, and the battle droids are engulfed by that 'light'. Back with the others, Sailor Moon is ruthlessly attacked by Yuuko while the others are kept from assisting her by Caster's golems.
Caster says, "I'm amazed by the level of hatred that she possesses for the daughters of Selene. While her outward appearance shows calm, her rage is a fury greater than the tempests of Poseidon."
Kazuto cuts down two more of Caster's golems causing him to say, with a snarl, "Yeah, we've noticed."
Sailor Moon asks Yuuko, "Why?"
Yuuko responds, "Why do you think?" Yuuko transforms her cybernetic arm into a blaster and prepares to fire on Sailor Moon, but then the whole ground starts to shake causing Yuuko to look around.
The fighting also stops between Caster and her golems and everyone else causing Sailor Star asks, confused, "What's going on?" Back with Sailor Moon and Yuuko, Sailor Moon 'senses' danger and she take to the skies in which, before Yuuko can attack her or do anything, she is slammed by what looks like an old English sailing galleon bursting out of the floor beneath Yuuko that sends her flying far away.
Sailor Nebula asks, "Is that an old English galleon?"
Kazuto says, "Doesn't look that old to me, Nebula." Just then Mash and Ritsuka notice at the rear of the galleon, there is a crest in the form of a golden female red deer on it.
Mash says, shocked, "Master, the crest on the back of the ship!"
Ritsuka asks, amazed, "Is that…?"
Just then a female voice shouts out, "Ahoy there! Be that you, Ritsuka and Mash?!" Everyone looks aboard the ship and they see someone looking over them from the side of galleon near the bridge deck.
This person seems to be a female pirate captain with long wavy crimson pink hair, blue eyes and scar across her face. She wears brown choker collar almost attach to her dark pink captain vest that shows her breasts, white pants, and long dark brown boots.
Ritsuka yells out, shocked, "Captain Drake?!"
The female pirate captain responds, "Blow me down! It is you and the lass! These seas be small after all!"
Mash asks, surprised, "How are you here?"
The female pirate captain, Captain Francis Drake from the 'Fate universe', responds, "Ye can thank me new first mate, who is my new Master! Come on and introduce yourself lass!" Soon after, from Drake's shadow, a new Sailor Scout makes her appearance!
This new Sailor Scout looks to be a Valkyrie Sailor Scout with lovely long flowing violet hair that reaches to her thighs behind her back, a golden Illyrian type helmet on her head with a golden coming out of the top left side and top right side with a pair of jeweled koi fish on the crown of the helmet, there is a pearly white tiara across her forehead with the astrological sign of zodiac star constellation Pisces in golden in the center of the tiara, light pink hue on her lips, there are a pair of earrings attached to her ears in which her earrings are pearly white stars with a pair of golden koi fish in center of the stars, she has an orange-red metal choker around her neck with astrological symbol of Pisces in gold at the center of the choker, she has on a sea-blue and violet armored fuku with the armored skirt going down to one-quarter of her thighs, football vest style shoulder pads connected to the armor fuku with symbol of Pisces in pearly white on them, her arms are covered in dark violet and sea-blue armor with her armored gloves covering her hands being fingerless, exposing sparkling violet fingernails with the astrological symbol of Pisces in sea-blue on each fingernail, on the chest plate of her armored fuku, there is a sea-blue and violet heart jewel with six large golden feathered wings attached to the heart jewel with two pearly white koi fish in the center of the heart jewel, her legs from her kneecaps down are covered in sea-blue armored high-heeled boots with violet highlights on the boots and four inch heels on the boots. Attached to her armored skirt, there is a sheath for a rapier on the right side of her skirt, a pink and sea-blue composite bow attached to the rear of her skirt, and what looks like a violet version of the Ninja Storm Blue Ranger's Sonic fin. Finally, coming out of her back, there are half-a-dozen lovely and huge golden feathered wings.
The new Valkyrie Sailor Scout says, in Yolei's voice, "Hey, everyone!" Soon after, Hawkmon appears by the right side of the 'new' Sailor Scout.
There are gasps and Ken asks, stunned, "Yolei?"
The 'new' Valkyrie Sailor Scout responds, "You got it, sweetie! However, the name is Valkyrie Sailor Pisces, mistress of the seas of the Zodiac Sailor Senshi, guardians of the Solaris Kingdom, at your service!" The 'new' Valkyrie Sailor Scout, revealed to be Yolei in her new Valkyrie Sailor Scout form, then takes a bow as Sailor Moon lands on the ship.
Sailor Nebula says, with a smile, "I knew it."
Sailor Moon tells Sailor Pisces, "Wow, you look great!"
Sailor Pisces says, with a giggle, "Thanks, girlfriend! But I'm more than just a pretty magical girl face!" Sailor Pisces then snaps her fingers and hundreds of puddles of water appear on the floor which take form as water golems, but Sailor Pisces says, shaking her head, "No! No! No! I can do better!" Sailor Pisces snaps her fingers, again, causing the water golems to take the shapes of pirates with their armaments in which she says, with a smile, "That's better!" Sailor Pisces shouts out, "All right, you scurvy dogs! Listen up and listen well! Take that witch's golems down to Davy Jones' locket and be quick about it! Attack!" Immediately, the water golems, now in 'pirate form', attack Caster's golems and while their attacks and weapons go through them, the water golems easily cut down Caster's golems.
Francis Drake says, "Well, I'll be darned. You be one talented magus there, Master."
Sailor Pisces tells Francis Drake, "Sorry, Captain Drake-dono, I'm not a magus…I'm a Sailor Senshi." Sailor Pisces shouts out to the others, "Everyone, get aboard Captain Drake-dono's ship on the double!"
Tuxedo Mask says, seriously, "Move!"
Saber responds, "What? We have the advantage now!"
Kazuto says, seriously, "Just do as she says!"
Shirou says, "Saber, I think that we should do as they say." Saber nods her head and the rest of our heroes' and heroines' group that's not on board the ship head over to the ship.
Caster says, seriously, "Not so fast!" Caster then 'summons' a lot of mystical circles, but then Sailor Pisces snaps her fingers in which her mystical circles shatter causing Caster to ask, stunned, "What?!"
Sailor Pisces says, with a sly smirk, "Sorry, but not happening! You aren't the only 'spellcaster' around here and I've got quite a unique 'skill'. It's called 'Mana Disruption' and it is what it says on the cover! I can disrupt all mana-based attacks!" Caster gives a look of shock before her lips curl into a snarl causing Sailor Pisces to say, with a grin, "That means no magecraft or magic unless I say so! So sorry…NOT!" On the meanwhile, the others board the ship causing her to take out what looks like a metal whistle causing her to yell out, "Okay, here we go!" Sailor Pisces then blows on the whistle creating a loud sound, but it seems like nothing happens.
Caster asks, with a smirk, "And what was that?"
But then the whole room starts to quake violently causing Sailor Pisces to respond, "Two words: Surf's up!" Just then a massive wave of water bursts into the room which seems to engulf Caster, who has a pure look of shock on her face, in which leaves the ship floating on the water which has filled the immense room.
Mash says, shocked, "Incredible…"
Sailor Nebula tells Sailor Pisces, "I had a feeling that you were one of us. Since Kari is Sailor Sun and you are her best female friend, I had a feeling that you were one of the twelve guardians of the Solaris royal family. Your awakening took a while."
Sailor Pisces says, with a smile, "Not like my powers didn't try. Anyway, it feels great to be here at last." Sailor Pisces says, "Through it is a bit complicated."
Sailor Moon asks, curiously, "Complicated?"
Just then Sailor Moon's and Kazuto's 'danger sense' goes off and Kazuto says, "That will have to wait." Just then Yuuko lands on the deck of ship.
Francis Drake yells out, "It looks like we got a stowaway on my ship!"
Sailor Pisces says, seriously, "And the worst kind, Captain Drake-dono!"
Francis Drake asks Sailor Pisces, "Ye know that strange intruder?"
Sailor Pisces says in reply, annoyed tone in her voice, "Wish that we didn't."
Yuuko looks at Sailor Pisces and she says, plainly, "Inoue, you are a Sailor Scout, too, huh? No matter. You get in my way and I will cut you down."
Sailor Pisces says, with a smirk, "Before you do that, you might want to look to your right."
Yuuko asks, plainly and not amused, "How dumb do you…?" Yuuko doesn't get to finished as she gets slammed a powerful water geyser and sent flying into the water.
Sailor Pisces asks, slyly, "Do you really want me to answer that?!"
Francis Drake tells Sailor Pisces, "That was an underhanded and dirty trick! Aye, Master, you be fit to be a pirate after all!"
Rin asks, surprised, "Master?"
Sailor Pisces says, nervously, "I'm not sure how to feel about that…" Sailor Pisces walks to the edge of the ship causing her to say, "Anyway, I'll be right back." Sailor Pisces then leaps off the ship and dives into the water.
Ken says, surprised, "Yolei!"
Francis Drake says, shocked, "My new Master has gone daft!"
Sailor Nebula replies, with a smile, "Don't worry, Captain Drake-dono, water is her element!" Yuuko bursts out of the water and floating in the air in which she glares at the others.
Sailor Pisces' voice booms, "Hey, Yuuko!" Yuuko turns to the source of Sailor Pisces' voice only to get bashed in the face by a geyser of solid water by Sailor Pisces, who is sitting on top of an open giant clam that's on a water geyser in which her legs have been replaced by a gorgeous sparkling violet fish tail.
Kazuto asks, confused, "Is it me or does she have a fish tail now?"
Sailor Nebula says, with a smile, "That's nature since her people, the people that live in the Pisces star constellation, are a race of mermen and mermaids."
Everyone else gets shocked looks and Shirou asks, stunned, "Mermen and mermaids?!"
Kazuto says, shocked, "No freaking way!" On the meanwhile, Sailor Pisces, having her new tail, leaps out of the clam and gets 'encased' in a sphere of water which flies towards Yuuko at incredible speed where Yuuko barely dodges and fires energy beams at Sailor Pisces, but she easily dodges the attacks and counterattacks using spheres of hardened water where Yuuko dodges most of them, however, a good number hit Yuuko inflicting significant damage to her.
Yuuko says, showing irritation, "Enough!" Yuuko claps her hands that create a shockwave that dispels the water sphere around Sailor Pisces causing her to yelp as she falls, but another water geyser containing an open large clam appears under her where she safely lands in the clam. Yuuko says, with a plain tone though her expression shows annoyance, "Your games won't stop me."
Sailor Pisces says, with a sly smile, "You say games and I call it a distraction."
Yuuko asks, plainly, "For what?" Sailor Pisces closes her eyes and out of the water, what looks like a megalodon bursts out of the water, eats Yuuko, and splashes down in the water.
Hawkmon says, shocked, "My goodness!"
The others are also shocked and Wormmon says, stunned, "You said it!"
Rin asks, shocked, "A megalodon?!"
Shirou asks, curiously, "What's that?"
Rin tells Shirou, "A giant prehistoric shark that could eat a person whole, that's what!" On the meanwhile, the giant calm containing Sailor Pisces lands on the ship and Sailor Pisces' new fin transforms back into her armored legs.
Francis Drake says, amazed, "Well, I'll be! You be a siren of the sea!"
Sailor Pisces says, a bit nervously, "Actually…you have a point."
Ken tells Sailor Pisces, "You were…amazing Yolei."
Sailor Pisces says, with a smile, "Thanks, Ken-kun."
Tuxedo Mask tells Sailor Pisces, "Yolei, Captain Drake call you her 'master', does that mean…?"
Sailor Pisces says, with a nod, "Yep! Take a look at this!" Sailor Pisces' right arm armor vanishes and on the backhand portion of her right hand, she has a 'tattoo' that looks like three sets of golden lines in the shape in the 'symbol' of Pisces: Two fish swimming together.
Mash says, shocked, "Those are…"
Saber says, amazed, "Command seals!"
Archer says, curiously, "Are they? They look radically different than any command seals that I have seen."
Sailor Moon asks, confused, "Hold on! We're not native to the world that Heroic Spirits like Drake-dono and the others come from! How can you become a 'Master' to a 'Heroic Spirit'?"
Sailor Pisces says, "It is because their world 'asked' us to, Serena. I was contacted by the will of their Earth: The 'Counter Force'."
There are looks of shock and Archer asks, surprised, "You were contacted by the Counter Force?"
Sailor Pisces says, with a nod, "Via a 'catalyst' used to summon Captain Drake-dono: The steering wheel of Drake-dono's flagship, the Golden Hein. In fact, UNI-SHOCKER has gathered all possible catalysts to summon Heroic Spirits on their Earths. The Counter Force knows about UNI-SHOCKER and basically…it KNOWS that there is no way for it to fight it especially knowing UNI-SHOCKER's plan."
There are looks of shock from Ritsuka, Mash, Shirou, Archer, Rin, and Saber in which Kazuto says, "That's not too surprising. We already know this: UNI-SHOCKER is multi-universal force that have conquered multiple worlds in multiple universes including multiple Earths. Only recently that they have had setbacks, thanks to alternate versions of us, but they are FAR from finished."
Sailor Pisces says, with a nod, "No joke. They have all sorts of powerful items from all over the multiverse. The Counter Force, looking to perverse its Earth and its humanity, needed a powerful countermeasure and somehow, it found it: Us."
Sailor Moon asks, "The Counter Force learned about us?"
Sailor Pisces says, with a nod, "Yep! Somehow, it learned about us and found the only way that it could fight back against UNI-SHOCKER albeit not one that it would prefer." Sailor Pisces asks, "Remember that Heaven's Feel 'true magic' that Yui mentioned from their world?"
Sailor Star asks, with a nod, "Yes?"
Sailor Pisces says, "Well, basically in short, it is part of our powers! We, as Valkyrie Sailor Senshi, have the ability to take human souls and 'materialize' them as our warriors!"
There are gasps of shock and Shirou says, "You're kidding!"
Sailor Moon says, stunned, "No way!"
Kazuto says, curiously, "That actually makes sense." Everyone looks at Kazuto and Kazuto says, "In Norse mythology, Valkyries were the emissaries of the Aesir to find chosen warriors to take to Valhalla to becomes warriors of the Aesir, known as Einherjar, to prepare for Ragnarök, the twilight of the Norse deities. As Valkyrie Sailor Scouts, you must be the living embodiment of that myth and legend."
Sailor Pisces responds, with a nod, "Bingo!" Sailor Pisces says, plainly, "Our power is divided into two parts: Soul Guardian and Einherjar Empowerment. Soul Guardian allows us to 'store' the souls in a special 'spirit realm' connected to our powers…a 'personal Valhalla' or whatever. In fact, Suguha used this power before."
Tuxedo Mask says, remembering, "Of course! She kept the souls of Yugo, Diabel, Sachi, and Aaron inside of her for a time!"
Sailor Pisces says, nodding her head in agreement, "That's right! She unconsciously used her Soul Guardian power. I don't think she knew how to use her other power, Einherjar Empowerment. It is basically to 'summon' those souls connected to our powers and basically give them physical form as well as powers based on their 'characteristics'…You know, life, skills, knowledge, and 'stories' connected to them. In short, they are pretty much the same Heroic Spirits as you see them in their universe."
Kazuto says, "Expect they aren't supported by any of that Earth's 'summoning systems' like a 'Holy Grail', it is your Valkyrie Sailor Scout powers that are doing that."
Sailor Pisces says, with a nod, "You got it."
Sailor Moon says, "Hold on! That doesn't explain how you are able to make a Heroic Spirit, a person from another universe, one of your 'Einherjar'."
Archer says, plainly, "The Counter Force has connected you to the Throne of Heroes."
Sailor Pisces replies, with a nod, "Yep." There are looks of shock and Sailor Pisces says, "It connected the Throne of Heroes with my Valkyrie Sailor Scout powers allowing me to summon Captain Drake-dono the instant that I touched her 'catalyst' especially since there was a summoning magic circle in the area that I was in. The Counter Force made it a bit more simple in which the instant that we touch a catalyst connected with a Heroic Spirit in the Throne of Heroes, we will create our own magic summoning circles and the Heroic Spirit connected to that 'catalyst' will be summoned without any kind of chant needed."
Ritsuka asks, amazed, "Really?"
Archer asks, plainly, "Does that mean that you are now a Counter Guardian?"
Sailor Pisces says, shaking her head, "Not even close. That's why your planet's 'will' didn't really want to deal with us. We CAN'T be controlled by the Counter Force because of our powers since our 'power sources' basically told the Counter Force to 'back off'. Through their Earth's 'will' didn't try to make me one of their agents. The instant that I touch the steering wheel of Captain Drake-dono's ship, the Counter Force 'linked up' with me and learned that I didn't 'awaken' as a Sailor Scout yet."
Tuxedo Mask says, "So, it completed the 'awakening' and caused it to 'upgrade' to Valkyrie Sailor Scout form to allow you to summon and support the Heroic Spirits stored in the Throne of Heroes."
Sailor Pisces says, with a nod, "Bingo! But the instant that I 'awoke', the very 'core' of my powers, the 'essence' of the Pisces star constellation, sensed what the Counter Force was trying to do and basically brought the will of OUR ENTIRE UNIVERSE down on the Counter Force."
There are shocked looks from the others and Sailor Moon asks, shocked, "Our entire universe? It's will?"
Sailor Pisces says, with a nod, "Our universe managed to convince the Counter Force see that only by working with us that our universe, its universe, and basically all of existence can be protected, but we have to remain independent of it since we aren't of its universe. Don't ask me how that happened. I'm barely processing all of the information that the two universes stuck in my head to explain all of this and I'm BARELY understanding it myself." Sailor Pisces holds her head causing her to say, with a groan, "Ugh! I've got a headache even explaining it too."
Kazuto says, "Something tells me that this new 'privilege' comes with restrictions."
Sailor Pisces says, with a nod, "Yeah. Despite it knowing, after basically scanning my mind and learning about us from however they did, don't ask me how, about and knowing that we will doing what we can save to all worlds, the Counter Force isn't exactly sure about leaving saving its Earth and its inhabitants to basically outsiders."
Kazuto says, "Well, you can't exactly blame it. Remember, the Counter Force, the will of that Earth, is trying to protect itself and its inhabitants. Remember, it is an emotionless force working for the survival of itself, the World, as well as its inhabitants, and thus, it must think in a logical manner." Kazuto asks, "Would you leave its fate to basically a group of 'outsiders' that have such powers that could bring the planet and its inhabitants to complete extinction, not to mention have limited control over, maybe close to NO control, over said 'outsiders' allowing them access to the ways that keep the planet and its inhabitants from complete destruction?"
Ken replies, with a nod, "I wouldn't."
Tuxedo Mask says, "However, the Counter Force must feel that it has no other choice, but to find 'agents' outside of their 'realm' since their usual 'agents' and 'ways' of protecting the World and its inhabitants wouldn't be sufficient." Tuxedo Mask says, looking at Sailor Moon, Sailor Star, Sailor Nebula, and Sailor Pisces, "That's where it found us…or should I say, the girls."
Sailor Pisces says, with a nod, "Exactly. How it found out about us before I got 'linked' is anyone's guess." Sailor Pisces then groans out and nearly falls down on her knees in which Ken supports her.
Hawkmon asks, worriedly, "Are you okay?"
Sailor Pisces says, with a nod, "Yeah, I'm okay. It is one of the downsides to this. We are using our own powers as the 'completely summoning system' to manifest 'people' like Captain Drake-dono."
Archer says, "Which most likely means a greater mana drain than like the Masters in the Holy Grail Wars."
Sailor Pisces says, her breathing heavier, "You got it. However, with our 'cosmic powers', we would be able to handle the power drain without skipping a beat. Problem for me is that I just 'awoke', and I'm not used to my powers just yet, so, I'm experience quite a real 'downer' in power here." Sailor Pisces says, looking at Moon, Nebula, and Star, "If Drake-dono was 'bonded' to one of you, it wouldn't be problem since you are already mastered this basic level of Valkyrie Sailor Scout power."
Kazuto says, "And I'm taking a wild guess that Counter Force is allowing to 'bonded' with as many Heroic Spirits as your powers can handle that could lead to more strain on your powers."
Sailor Pisces says, taking a deep breath, "Yeah." Sailor Pisces pushes one of her earrings causing a violet colored visor similar to Sailor Mercury's visor to appear in front of her eyes while taking out a violet colored version of Sailor Mercury's color with the astrological sign of Pisces, in gold, imprinted on the cover of the mini-computer.
Wormmon asks, "What are you doing?"
Sailor Pisces says, with a smile, "This." Sailor Pisces pushes buttons on the computer and a large portal opens in front of them causing Sailor Pisces to tell Francis Drake, "All right, Captain Drake-dono, full steam…I mean full SAIL ahead! Adventure and treasure await!"
Francis Drake says, excitedly, "You be speaking my language, Master! Hang on!" Soon enough, Francis Drake sails her ship into the gateway which closes behind them.
(Within another part of the facility; a bit afterwards)
Heading into what looks like a factory part of the vast city-like headquarters facility, we find [Sailor Moon] and [Sailor Celestial] fighting robots/androids similar to Fulgore cyborg from Killer Instinct series with [Sailor Celestial] beheading two of them, but then the two of them dodge fire from more Fulgore style androids.
[Sailor Moon] asks, "How many of these tin cans do they have?"
[Sailor Celestial] says, with a plain tone, "Do you really want to know, sis? Right now, we need to take out their tin cans first!"
Just then a familiar female voice says, "We'll take care of that." Soon after, a rain of arrows comes down on the Fulgore style androids, hitting them in vital spots, and completely disabling them while more arrows hit all over the factory causing multiple explosions causing the factory to shut down completely.
[Sailor Moon] says, amazed, "Nice shot."
[Sailor Celestial] says, with a nod, "I'll say." The two of them look in one direction where they find Sailor Mars, Talia, in her battle armor, Stella, in her new form of Cure Celestial, Sailor Orion, Izzy, Sora, Mimi, Joe, Cody, Tentomon, Biyomon, Lillymon, Gomamon, and Digmon walking over to them, but they have Lancer along with four other people with them.
The first person seems to a lovely woman with long wild waist long hair with it being leaf green on the front half of her scalp with her neck long bangs being the same color, most of the rest of her hair being a deep brown, and ends of her hair being ghostly white, there are two animal-like ears coming out of the top of her scalp, her green eyes show a deadly cold, and she has on dark green and black dress, deep brown gloves that have claw-like fingers, and black thigh-high boots on her feet. There is an animal-like tail coming out of her tailbone area and a long bow in her hands.
The second person is a young woman of around early to mid-twenties, short maroon hair, maroon eyes, a mole under her left eye, and she is wearing a black two-piece business suit with a red necktie as well as black business shoes.
The third person is a young girl of around 11 years of age who appears similar in appearance to Chole, but her hair is blond, her eyes are crimson in color, and she is wearing what looks like a pink 'magical girl' outfit with what looks like a toy Magical Girl stick in her hands in which the stick consisting of a yellow star in a ring that has two small red bead with six white wings and a red retractable handle that has a white top with a gold color cross at the bottom.
The fourth person is another young girl of around 11 years of age with neck long black hair, golden-brown eyes, and wearing a blue 'magical girl' outfit with a similar Magical Girl stick as the blond hair girl in the pink outfit has, but this Magical Girl stick is blue where the blond haired girl's stick is red.
Sailor Orion says, plainly with a shrug, "Not really that impressive."
[Sailor Moon] says, with a smile, "Reminds me of a certain someone back home."
[Sailor Celestial] says, with a warm smile, "I'm sure that we will see them again, sis."
Lillymon says, "Geez! Battle robots, androids, homunculus, and even Digimon! This place is like a giant war factory than a headquarters!"
Sailor Mars says, "Not surprising. While they used politics and economics as their methods for conquest, Lunar said that they used 'shadow wars' to fight 'behind the scenes'. So, it isn't surprising that they have facilities like this to develop their 'war machines'. But now, since Lunar forced them into open warfare, they have more facilities like this to create more advanced and more numerous weapons."
Mimi says, nervously, "But this is quite a bit much."
Sailor Orion says, "It shouldn't be too surprising. By the time that Lunar and his 'resistance' starting fighting them 'out in the open', they had already conquered who knows how many worlds and thus, they have a lot of resources. Despite their victories, UNI-SHOCKER still holds a major edge over Lunar and his allies."
Mimi asks, curiously, "Really?"
Cure Celestial says, "Seems pretty desperate to me."
Sailor Orion says, plainly, "Maybe, but like I said, they still have vast resources. While they have been forced into open warfare, which isn't what they are ready for, they managed to stop the advance of Lunar and his forces. However, they are also afraid for the fight prolonging, too. In their minds, the longer that this fight lasts, the more damaging that it will be for them since it will show their weakness for not being able to turn back and defeat this 'rebellion' in a quick manner. But UNI-SHOCKER knows that they can't fight them in their usual way since they are forced into fighting 'in the open' and their own technology is being used against them like with Lunar himself since his Sailor Moon adapted UNI-SHOCKER's technology to be his weapon against them. It is also the cases in plenty of our counterparts even the Sailor Scouts. They are using UNI-SHOCKER technology or using technology developed to counter UNI-SHOCKER technology against them."
Joe asks, curiously, "So, you think that UNI-SHOCKER is more worried about ending this quickly than current set of victories that Lunar and the others have made?"
Sailor Orion says, with a nod, "I believe so. I mean, they must have plenty of other worlds that they can retreat too, but they know that they can't let this 'rebellion' defeat them since it will give them a powerful enemy that can counter them and stopping their advances into the multiverse. Plus, they can't let it go on since, sooner or later, this could spark 'rebellion' in other worlds which it has because their 'reputation' has been damaged and the longer this lasts, the greater than damage to their reputation."
Cody says, plainly, "However, they can't defeat Lunar and his allies in the same way that they have done so in the past and they need to adapt."
[Sailor Celestial] says, looking at the group's 'newcomers', "That's why they are going across worlds not only gathering technology, but powerful 'forces' of magic, spiritualism, supernatural, and the lot. To create new weapons to use against Lunar and his allies."
Sailor Orion says, with a nod, "Obviously."
The black-haired young girl says, "They captured us for Ruby and Sapphire. They are powerful Mystic Codes created by what we know as a 'True Magic'."
Sailor Mars says, with a nod, "That's right, Miyu-san."
Just then a female voice comes from the 'toy stick' in black-haired young girl's, Miyu's, hands, saying, in a calm voice, "Since we also made contracts with you, they took you too to examine our abilities fully though it is also logical to say that since you and Illya were planned to be used as the 'Holy Grail' from our two universes, they had interested in the two of you in that."
Miyu tells her 'toy stick', "I agree, Sapphire."
Miyu's 'toy stick', Sapphire, starts to move around in which its 'head' looks at Sailor Mars and Sailor Orion causing her to say, "I have to say that you, young ladies, are indeed very powerful. The ability to manifest Heroic Spirits with your own power alone is on the level of the True Magic in our world and your mana and mystical abilities are definitely BEYOND any mage expect for probably a few."
Sailor Mars says, "Well, call us surprised too. We didn't know that we had that kind of power." Sailor Mars says, looking at Sailor Orion and the lovely woman with animal ears and tail, "However, I had my suspicions due to the fact that one of us, Celestial, had kept the souls of four people within her for a time and our powers embody the legend and myth of the Norse Valkyries. However, it doesn't mean that I was shocked when you summoned their world's legendary huntress, Atalanta, after you found one of her arrows."
Lancer says, "It must be quite bad if the Counter Force is recruiting 'outsiders' to help out."
The young woman with short maroon hair and wearing a business suit retort, "It shouldn't be surprising, Lancer. They are trying to access the 'core' of all existence itself."
The blond-haired young girl asks, "Is that really possible?"
The 'stick' in her hands replies, "No way! You can't just go to the 'center' of all things!"
Miyu says, "They said that's what their friend is for, Ruby."
The blond-haired young girl asks her 'stick', Ruby, "Have you heard of such a thing, Ruby?"
Ruby replies, "Well, Illya, sweetie, there is an old legend about a 'force' that gave birth to everything and I mean EVERYTHING! The planets, the stars, mana, magecraft, true magic, and even deities, but it is so obscure that very few people, even the elite mages, know about it!"
Lancer says, with a plain tone, "Well, it isn't a myth anymore."
The lovely woman with animal ears and tail says, "To think that the very thing that gave birth to my Lady Artemis is wielded by a mortal."
Sailor Orion responds, "Technically, Zeus and Leto gave birth to Artemis, Atalanta-dono. Also, Suguha is more like the 'guardian' of Etherion and not its wielder even though she has the ability to wield it through not even close to its full potential."
The animal eared woman, Atalanta, tells Sailor Orion, "Lady Orion, you must remember that you are my Master and I am your Servant."
Sailor Orion says, "Well, I am new to this and I am not of your world."
Atalanta says, with a smile, "I'm sure that you will adapt, Lady Orion. Personally, I am glad to have a kindred spirit as my Master this time."
Sailor Orion says, "I am not sure if I agree with that Atalanta, but I will accept your help." Atalanta nods her head, but then the two of them stop and before anyone could say anything, Sailor Orion and Atalanta fire their arrows in one direction where something knocks them away.
Sailor Mars says, seriously, "Company!"
Just then a male voice says, "Well done."
Miyu gasps and she says, nervously, "That voice…"
The male voice says, "Hello, Miyu. It is good to see you and Illyasviel von Einzbern again." Out of the shadows, a young man of late teenage years with short messy black hair, blue eyes with square framed glasses in front of them and wearing a brown school uniform. He is with a young petite teenage girl with unkempt scarlet hair tied at both ends, yellow eyes with insanity in them, and a fang-like mouth, and she is wearing red, black, and white Lolita outfit. Her right hand and arm are covered in bandages and gantlet.
The blond-haired young girl, Illya AKA Illyasviel von Einzbern, says, surprised, "Julian and Beatrice."
Sailor Mars says, annoyed, "Great. The 'shadow' of an insane mage and his nutjob fangirl."
The young man gives an annoyed look and the young man says, "I am Darius. You are just mere players in my legend, and it is already determined."
Lancer says, annoyed, "Man! He really is cocky!"
Illya says, getting in front of Miyu, "You aren't getting your hands on Miyu, Julian! I'm going to save her and her world!"
The young man, Julian, replies, "You shouldn't worry since I require Miyu no longer."
There are gasps and Miyu asks, surprised, "What?"
Julian says, "I have found a greater 'Holy Grail' that will allow me to do more than just allow humanity to survive what's to come in our world. My legend will grow as I re-forge our entire world."
Miyu asks, shocked, "Re-forge our world?"
Julian says, with a nod, "Yes, Miyu. Originally, you were to be the Holy Grail that I would use to transform humanity…" But then everyone hears a bow fire and the red-haired teen girl uses her massive right arm to block an arrow from Atalanta.
Atalanta says, angrily, "You would use an innocent child as a mere tool? Disgusting! I will never forgive that!"
Julian responds, "The needs of the many out way the needs of the few or the one, Lady Atalanta."
Sailor Mars asks, in a sarcastic annoyed tone, "Does Star Trek call you for copyright infringement?"
Julian says, plainly, "As I was you were meant to be the Holy Grail to transform humanity to survive the cataclysm slowly eating away at our world, but now, my legend will grow with my new solution." Julian says, looking at [Sailor Celestial], "That solution lies before me."
[Sailor Moon] says, "Not happening!"
Julian says, "You will not stop me. I will fulfill our family's duty even beyond our wildest dreams. Before there was no way to stop the depilation of mana of our world, but now, it is a different story."
Miyu asks, "What do you mean?"
Julian says, "Mana is energy and like all energy, you can't create or destroy mana…"
Sailor Orion says, finishing for Julian, "But you can change it. That's your plan. You want to use Etherion to covert other forms of energy into mana to replace the mana that your world lost."
Julian says, with a nod, "Exactly."
There are gasps of shock and Miyu asks, "Is that even possible?"
Sapphire says, "Well, when you look at it in a scientific way, it follows the law of conservation of energy, Lady Miyu, but…"
Julian says, "Plants convert sunlight into life-giving nutrients. And mana is life energy."
Sailor Orion says, "And Etherion is the 'filter'."
Julian says, "Correct."
Sailor Mars says, plainly, "That's enough for me." Just then it seems like all of the steam and heat from the forges from this factory start seemly flow into Sailor Mars, who is walking away from the others, where she says, "I think that it is time for this snot nosed mage brat learn that when you play with fire, you are going to get burned!" Soon after, a massive flaming aura surrounds Sailor Mars as she prepares for battle.
Illya says, shocked, "She's on fire!"
Miyu says, seriously, "No, she is surrounded by flames and controlling them."
Ruby says, "Wow! Talk about being 'hot under the collar'!"
Sailor Mars says, "Let's see what's stronger: The 'Thunder of Thor' or the 'Flames of Mars'! Let's do this!" The young red-haired looks at Julian and he nods causing her to laugh in an insane fashion.
The young red-head shouts out, "Okay! Install!" A magic circle appears around her feet before she changes in a flash of light with her outfit transforming into a Norse themes version of her outfit with her massive right hand is now wielding massive hammer with triquetra symbol in the center.
Sailor Orion says, plainly, "Thor's hammer, Mjolnir."
Mimi says, worriedly, "Be careful!"
Sailor Mars says, with a grin, "Don't worry, Mimi! This fangirl will learn how a true 'goddess of war' fights!" The flames surrounding Sailor Mars become more intense while the red-haired girl laughs insanely as she prepares to battle her.
Atalanta thinks in her mind, amazed, "Such intensity. These flames can't be forged by mere magecraft. Only the avatars of Ares and Athena could make flames this hot."
As Sailor Mars and the red-haired insane young lady prepare to fight, Cody thinks in his mind, "What is Julian's game this time? We have what we know from the fiction of our world, but this isn't mere anime or manga anymore. It sounds like he has told us his objective, but they may be more to it. I hope that the others are having luck on their ends."
(Joining back with Sailor Moon's team; a short time afterwards)
If Cody knew what was happening with Sailor Moon's group, he would be concerned as we find her yelping and leaping backwards as she dodges an attack from what looks like a Velociraptor.
Tuxedo Mask says, "Not so fast!" Tuxedo Mask slams his palm into the ground and multiple thorny vines come out of the ground, binding the Velociraptor, and slamming it into the ground.
Sailor Moon says, annoyed, "Now, Velociraptors?! Did they raid Jurassic Park or something?! Geez!"
Sailor Nebula says, "It looks like it, Serena." As we get a look around, we find that Sailor Moon's group is in what looks like a vast prehistoric grassland with multiple bonded and/or unconscious Velociraptors all around them.
Yolei, back in her armor, asks, breathing heavily, "After all we went through, you are surprised by this Serena?"
Ken asks Yolei, concerned, "Are you okay?"
Yolei retorts, "Do I look okay, Ken-kun?"
Hawkmon tells Yolei, "Not really, Yolei. You look exhausted."
Yolei says, sarcastically, "Thanks."
Sailor Nebula says, "Keeping Captain Drake manifested as much as you did really drain you since your powers only just awoke and you also only became a Valkyrie Sailor Scout. But I don't think that it is the only thing."
Ken asks, "What do you mean?"
Sailor Nebula says, "Remember, Yolei's people, the people of the Pisces star constellation kingdom, lives on a world that was practically all water and they were 'space mermen and mermaids'. Unlike most of us, the mixing of her 'Earthling self' with her 'Silver Millennium self' has probably put her body into flux. Unlike the fiction of today, the mermen and mermaids of Pisces star constellation can walk on the surface since they can transform their fins into legs, but they lose dehydrate faster than any 'land humanoids' and they are more sensitive to heat than us."
Hawkmon asks, curiously, "So, Yolei is in a state between human and mermaid?"
Sailor Nebula says, with a nod, "I believe that's what it is, Hawkmon."
Ken asks, concerned, "Will Yolei be okay?"
Yolei says, with a smile, "I'll be fine, Ken-kun. We've been through worse than this and besides, something tells me that it is a good thing that I'm in the 'Sailor Scout game' now."
Shirou says, amazed, "This place is incredible."
Saber says, "I find it worrisome."
Rin says, with a nod, "I agree. If they have revived dinosaurs, they aren't doing it to make a theme park."
Archer says, nodding his head in agreement, "Most likely, they are making them into weapons." Archer says, with a snarl, "Disgusting. The past isn't even sacred to them."
Kazuto says, plainly, "I doubt that anything is sacred to them."
Tuxedo Mask says, "Of that, I think that we can all agree."
Wormmon asks, "Is there any sign?"
Ken says, looking at a screen projecting out of his armor, "Not a thing. And her trail led right here."
Flashback: A short time before
Inside of a destroyed lab similar to the one that Sammy was being kept in, the group is looking around while Captain Drake turns into an orb where that orb goes into Sailor Pisces as Ritsuka and Mash look on, but then Sailor Pisces gives a great sigh as she transforms back into Yolei, in her armor, and nearly falls to her knees.
Hawkmon says, nervously, "Yolei!"
Yolei says, breathing heavily, "I'm okay…just a bit winded…" Ken goes over and helps Yolei to her feet causing Yolei to smile at her beloved.
Sailor Nebula activates a visor and takes out her mini-computer causing her to say, "Easy, Yolei." As Sailor Nebula is scanning Yolei, the others are looking around the lab.
Chole says, amazed, "Wow! This place is busted good!"
Sailor Moon asks, curiously, "Is this where Suguha was being held?"
Yui, in her pixie form, and Strea, looking like her SAO avatar, comes out from behind large machinery and Yui says, "Yes, Auntie Usagi. Based on the information that was found by Ami, she was in this lab."
Kazuto says, using a scanner in his armor, "Yui's right. My armor's scanner has detected Sugu's DNA in this machine."
There are gasps and Hawkmon says, "That means that she was here!"
Chole says, plainly, "Was is right."
Sailor Star asks, "Did someone break into the lab and take her?"
Kazuto says, shaking his head, "No. It looks like Sugu managed to escape herself." Kazuto points to the cylinder and the floor in which he says, "Take a look at the floor. This glass came from this cylinder and look how the glass is. If the cylinder were broken into from the outside, the glass would be on either side, but the glass is in front of the hole of the cylinder."
Tuxedo Mask says, with a nod, "Kazuto is right. That means that the cylinder was destroyed from the inside. That means that Suguha escaped from within the container."
Hawkmon says, pointing to a large hole in the wall, "And it looks like that's where she escaped." Everyone can see a trail of water going from cylinder to the hole in the wall.
End Flashback: Return to the Present
Back in the present, Ken says, "I hope that Suguha isn't around here."
Yui says, "From the evidence that I could get from the information, they kept Suguha's broach and other items nearby, so, it is most likely she retrieved them."
Sailor Star says, "Yes, Yui. But Suguha-chan's powers are unstable and she can't use them."
Yolei says, "Well, her Sailor Scout powers anywhere. She still has some power and she showed that she is far from helpless."
Sailor Star says, with a nod, "True. Very true."
Kazuto says, "That's not what I'm worried about."
Tuxedo Mask asks Kazuto, "You are worried what they could have done to Suguha, aren't you?"
Saber looks over the dinosaurs causing her to say, "It is amazing that they could revive such ancient creatures."
Shirou says, "I agree, Saber."
Chole says, "Don't be too impressed. You know how it is in 'dinosaur movies'. There is always big trouble." As if to prove Chole's point, there is a massive roar heard causing quite a few yelps from the group.
Mash asks, a bit nervously, "Master, what was that?"
Ritsuka says, nervously, "Big trouble, Mash." Everyone looks to the source of the massive roar and they see a giant T-rex running towards them.
Yolei says, fearfully, "Oh, man! I knew it!" Everyone gets into defensive stances, but then the T-rex falls into a massive pitfall that just appears at its feet and slam down at the end of the long pit with a massive crash.
Chole says, "That was anti-climactic."
Kazuto says, with a smile, "No, that was a friend."
Just then a familiar male voice shouts out, "You got that right, believe it!" Bursting out of the ground, Naruto, Sakura, and Valkyrie Sailor Galaxy out of the ground in which they are followed by someone else.
This person looks to be a young woman with grey haired tied in a bun by a 'band' shaped like eight-point shuriken, her grey hair also having a right bang that goes down to her chest area, blue eyes, red earrings shaped like three pointed leaves attached to her ears, a black cloth choker with a green magmata attached below the center of the black choker, a red and dark blue kimono-like dress with a red sash with pink flowers containing two sheaths for two kitana-like swords, black thigh-high socks, and black geta on her feet.
Sailor Moon says, excitedly, "Naruto! Sakura! H-Galaxy!"
Sakura says, with a grin, "It's about time!"
Ritsuka and Mash are shocked to see the young woman and Ritsuka asks the woman, "Musashi?!"
The woman looks at Ritsuka and Mash and she says, excitedly, "Hey, Ritsuka! I see that you and Mash are here!"
Sailor Galaxy asks the woman, "You know them, Musashi-san?"
The woman responds, with a nod, "Yeah. I met Ritsuka and Mash quite a few times while I was traveling across worlds."
Kazuto asks Naruto, "Who is your new friend?"
Sakura says, a bit nervously, "Well, you aren't going to believe this, but her name is Miyamoto Musashi."
There are gasps of shock and Yolei asks, shocked, "Say what?!"
Ritsuka says, a bit nervously, "She isn't the one that's normal part of our history and probably yours too."
After Ritsuka does a quick explanation, Tuxedo Mask says, "She comes from a world where Musashi was born a woman instead of a man."
The woman, an alternate female version of Miyamoto Musashi, says, "Yeah, but my world got the boot since from the worlds that I come from, I'm supposed to be a guy. The only reason that I'm still around is that I got ejected from my world before it vanished, and I've been wandering around worlds ever since." Musashi says, with a smile, "But it isn't all bad! I get to travel to new worlds, fight awesome opponents, and meet new people like Ritsuka and his friends. It is a blast!"
Ritsuka says, "But the last time that we met…"
Musashi says, a bit nervously, "Sorry to worry you, Ritsuka. But I was going to die there. However, the thing is, these guys picked me up before I bit the big one and healed me…Well, only to keep me captive."
Tuxedo Mask says, "Most likely due to the fact that you come from a world that's 'vanished' and you seem to have the ability to travel through worlds."
Musashi says, with a shrug, "Yeah, but I have NO control over it. I just bounce from world to world." Musashi says, with a groan, "It was a real pain being trapped in here. While the free food was great and all, it was a pain in the butt to be stuck around doing really nothing all day. I couldn't practice my sword style since they took my swords!" Musashi says, "A swordsman's soul is in their swords, you know!" Musashi says, with a smile, "But thankfully, I met these guys and I was shocked to find out that they are shinobi! I mean, shinobi have been known to have 'supernatural powers', but I never met a shinobi that can create a hundred solid duplicates of themselves or create spinning energy balls that blast walls into dust! I have to admit that it was pretty awesome stuff!"
Ritsuka says, with a smile, "I'm glad that you are okay, Musashi."
Ken asks Naruto, "Naruto, you, Sakura, and even Hinata look different. Taller, even. What happened?"
Sakura responds, "It is pretty obvious. 'They' happened. We were turned into 'lab rats' again."
Sailor Moon asks, concerned, "Are you okay?"
Sakura replies, with a shrug and sarcastic tone, "Other than feeling our bones and insides were being turned inside out, we're okay."
Sailor Galaxy says, a bit nervously, "We were awake while they were experimenting on us." There are gasps of shock and Sailor Galaxy says, with a smile, "We're okay. Really."
Sailor Nebula asks, concerned, "Are you sure?"
Sakura says, with a grin, "Took a look at us. We're more than just a pretty set of faces."
Musashi says, with a grin, "I'll say. She just slapped a robot in the cheek, and it went flying across the room as well as through a wall!"
There are plenty of shocked looks and Sakura says, nervously, "We're REALLY superhumanly strong now and we're still trying to our new superhuman strength."
Yolei asks, "How did you escape?"
Naruto says, with a grin, "They thought that they found all of our storage seals that we kept on us."
Sailor Galaxy says, "We had storage seals on the bottom of our tongues."
Yolei asks, shocked, "Seriously?!"
Kazuto says, with a grin, "Leave to the most unpredictable ninja to come up with that idea."
Sakura tells Kazuto, with a smirk, "You got that right." Naruto rubs his head and Sakura says, "After we escaped, thanks to Washu's devices that we hid, we managed to get our stuff back and release the seals that they put on us, but it has been a bit touch and go for us."
Naruto says, "They really did a big one on us. Our bodies are still adjusting to what they did."
Sailor Galaxy says, "But we're managing."
Naruto says, with a grin, "So, if you need us in the fight, we're ready to go!"
Tuxedo Mask asks Naruto, "Have you seen Suguha?"
Sailor Galaxy asks, curiously, "Suguha?"
Sailor Moon says, "She managed to escape the lab that they had her in."
Naruto, Sakura, and Sailor Galaxy give looks of shock and Naruto asks, "Suguha-chan has escaped?"
Kazuto says, with a nod, "It looks like it and it led here."
Sailor Moon asks, "Have you seen her?"
Sailor Galaxy says, shaking her head, "No, we haven't. We've been trying to stay ahead of our captors."
Naruto says, with a nod, "Yeah! They have everything around here! Robots, monsters, and everything in-between!" Naruto says, with a grin, "However, if Suguha-chan's escaped, I'm sure that we will find her soon enough! She might drop in on us when we don't expect it!"
Just then a loud female scream is heard, and Sailor Moon asks, "Is that someone screaming?!"
Soon after, a female voice is heard screaming out, "Oh no! I'm going to hit them! Hey, you! Get out the way! Get out of the way! Get out of the…!" Everyone looks towards the source only for 'something' to plow into Naruto, who then plows into Kazuto, and the two of them along with 'what' plowed into them skidding across the ground about dozen yards away from where Kazuto got hit until they come to a stop.
Sailor Star says, worriedly, "Kirito-kun!"
Hawkmon asks, confused, "My words, what was that?" The group assembles where Kazuto, Naruto, and 'what' crashed into them stopped and when the smoke and dust clear, they find Kazuto, his back to the ground, Naruto, lying on top of Kazuto stomach-first, and finally, a young lady on top of them.
This young lady looks like Suguha, but while she has Suguha's hair, in color and hairstyle, her eyes are ruby red while Suguha's eyes, a black and golden crown in her scalp, golden hoop earrings attached to her ears, a golden metallic choker with a black gem attached to the bottom center portion of the choker, there is a golden necklace shaped like the Eye of Wdjat over the choker, she has a white and golden bandeau top that covers, the front, sides, and much of the top of her very well-endowed chest, golden rings around her upper right arm, she has on a black 'sleeve' laced with gold coming from her left wrist up to nearly at her shoulder, she has a black throng laced with gold in-between her legs, golden rings around the ankle of her bare left leg, and her right leg is covered in a black stocking laced with gold that covers much of her right leg, but leaves her toes exposed.
This 'Suguha look-a-like' shakes her head causing her to say, in Suguha's voice, "Those rotten overgrown lizard! Who do they think their dealing with? I'll show those…!" This person then looks down to see her sitting down on Naruto's back where he is lying on Kazuto's stomach causing this person to blink several times before shouting out, shocked, "Hey, what do you think that you, two are doing?!"
Naruto says, with a groan, "Being a cushion…from what we are seeing…" On the meanwhile, Sailor Nebula is scanning the young lady with her visor and mini-computer.
The young lady yells out, "And who gave you permission to be a cushion? Why…!" The young lady then stops, blinks, and she asks, curiously, "Naruto? Big brother?"
Kazuto and Naruto gasp in shock and Kazuto asks, looking at the young lady that looks like Suguha, "Sugu?"
The young lady says, "Oh, it is you." The young lady then leaps off of Kazuto and Naruto, allowing them to get to their feet, and she floats just above the ground while in a cross-legged position while floating in the air.
Wormmon asks Hawkmon, "Is she floating?"
Hawkmon says, a bit nervously, "Yes, I believe she is."
Kazuto asks the young lady, "Is that you, Sugu? And what the heck are you wearing?"
The young lady responds, with a sly smirk, "Like the new look?" The young lady then looks at Ritsuka and Mash causing her to say, "Ritsuka? Mash? Well, this is interesting to see you here!"
Ritsuka asks, confused, "Do we know you?"
The young lady sighs causing her to tell Ritsuka, "Seriously? I may look different because I've been put in a new vessel and all, but really? Do I really have to smite you for touching my 'original body' when we met when you became my cushion without my permission?"
Ritsuka gasps causing him to ask, stunned, "Ishtar?!"
There are looks of shock and Yolei asks, "Ishtar? As in the Mesopotamia Goddess Ishtar?"
The young lady retorts, "Do you know any other Ishtars? However, big brother, sis, and Naruto are still allowed to call me Suguha or Sugu since they are family after all."
Sailor Nebula says, shocked, "Everyone! This is Suguha! At least, this is her body!"
Everyone looks at Sailor Nebula and Naruto asks, surprised, "Suguha-chan's body?"
The young lady asks, annoyed, "Hey, did I give you permission to scan me?"
Sailor Nebula says, with a plain tone while ignoring the young lady, "It is! I've checked! This is Suguha's body and her temporal signature is the same as our Suguha!" Sailor Nebula yelps as the mini-computer is ripped out of her hands by a 'psychic force' and put into the hands of the young lady, now revealed to be someone in Suguha's body.
The lady in Suguha's body yells out, sternly, "Hey, I'm talking to you! And when I speak, you listen, got it?!"
Kazuto yells out, preparing to draw his swords, "Who are you?! What are you doing in Sugu's body?"
The lady in Suguha's body gives a groan causing her to say, as she goes into a standing position while still floating just off the ground, "Big brother, weren't you listening? I know that you are more observant that this. I told you that I'm Ishtar, but I'm also Suguha as well." However, the lady, Ishtar, yelps as Suguha's head jerks forward causing her to drop Sailor Nebula's mini-computer in which the lady holds Suguha's head in pain causing her to yelp, "Ow!" Ishtar shakes Suguha's head causing her to say, "Ritsuka, you explain what happened back at the Seventh Singularity. I don't feel like explaining anything."
Ritsuka says, nervously, "Um…" But then Sailor Moon's and Kazuto's 'danger sense' goes off and they look in one direction causing everyone else to look to see what looks like various monsters with B1 battle droids.
One of the B1 battle droids yells out, sternly, "Don't move!" This causes Ishtar to narrow her eyes at the droids and monsters.
Yolei says, annoyed, "Here we go again!"
Ishtar says, irritated, "You darn order a goddess? A pathetic tin can like you has got some nerve. You should learn your place." Ishtar then summons a duplicate of Dark Repulsar into her hands and she gets into a familiar kendo style stance which causes everyone to pause before she zips over to the battle droid that demanded not for Ishtar and our group not to move in which she cleaves him in half with one quick strike where both halves separate before it explodes!
The others are shocked, and Saber says, "Such speed and power!" Immediately, the battle droids and monsters focused on Ishtar, but she easily avoids the attacks and using familiar style moves, she easily and ruthless cuts down the droids and monsters before leaping high into the air.
Floating high in the sky, Ishtar yells out, "Time for my new move!" She snaps her left hand, creating thousands of swords made of light, and they rain down on the monsters and droids, decimating them easily, but hears a screech causing her and everyone else to look up to see wyvern dropping down.
Sailor Moon asks, shocked, "Oh, great! More dragons?!" However, Ishtar just smirks as she flies into the air and using familiar 'aerial sword moves', she easily and ruthlessly cuts down the wyverns. When she is done, she sees a surviving monster on the ground in which she zips down and slams down her right foot on the monster, pulverizing it, and creating a massive crater from the shockwave of her foot hitting the monster's form before she zooms over back to the others where she uses her free hand to brush her hair.
Archer says, a bit nervously, "She's powerful…"
Musashi gives a whistle causing her to say, with a nod, "I'll say."
Kazuto yells out, strongly, "And those are Sugu's moves! How do you know them?!"
Ishtar gives a sigh causing her to say, "Didn't I already explain it? I'm Ishtar, but I'm Suguha too." Ishtar then gasps and gives an expression of pain causing the sword in her hand to vanish where she holds her waist in pain.
Mash asks, "Ishtar-dono, are you okay?"
Ishtar says, annoyed, "Peachy. My 'other self' really knows how to a be a pain."
Tuxedo Mask asks, "Other self?"
Just then a familiar female voice yells out in their minds, "That's me! The real me!" Just then Ishtar glows in which the 'glow' that comes from Ishtar leaves her form where that 'glow' takes the form of Suguha, in her usual clothing.
Kazuto asks, shocked, "Sugu?!"
Suguha's voice says in everyone's minds, "That's right, big brother! It's me! And not this bitch!" The 'astral form' of Suguha glares at Ishtar and Ishtar glares back at this 'astral form' of Suguha causing Yolei, Hawkmon, Wormmon, and Sailor Moon to look between Ishtar and Suguha, in 'astral form'.
(Elsewhere in the facility; on the meanwhile)
Within the prison area of the facility where Rika, Keiko, Kotone, Hiyori, Rainbow, and Nijika were being held, they are still inside of said prison cell and listening to the sounds of battle happening all over the facility.
Keiko asks, curiously, "What's going on?"
Kotone says, "It sounds like explosions and such."
Rika says, with a grin, "It's obvious that it is Kirito and the others coming to save us."
Keiko asks Rika, "Are you sure, Rika?"
Rika responds, with a sly smile, "Yeah! Who would be crazy enough to take on an evil organization that has future tech and has conquered worlds across multiple universes?"
Kotone says, a bit nervously, "I'm not sure I would put it that way, but you have a point."
There is a slight shaking of the prison area and Nijika says, "The explosions and 'rumbling' are getting closer."
Hiyori says, "It could mean our friends are getting closer."
Just then a voice says, "Most likely." The young ladies gasp and they turn to see a cloaked figure walking up to the edge of their cell.
Rika asks, in a demanding tone, "Who the heck is you?"
The cloaked figure responds, "Geez, is this how you thank the girl that's going to get you out of here? That's nice!" The cloaked figure then takes out a remote in which she pushes a button causing the force-field acting as the 'bars' to the cell that Rika, Keiko, Kotone, Hiyori, Rainbow, and Nijika are in to deactivate where the cloaked figure pushes another button causing the collars around their necks to fall off.
The young ladies gasp and Kotone says, "We're free!"
Rika says, with a breath of relief, "Finally."
Rainbow says, plainly, "That's nice and all, but it doesn't mean that we trust you."
Rika says, with a nod, "Seven…I mean, Rainbow is right! Just because you got us out there doesn't mean that we trust you! This could be a trick!"
Keiko asks, curiously, "You really think so?"
The cloaked figure says, with a sigh, "Aren't you the suspicious bunch? Guess my counterpart was right. Oh, well. Guess I have to show you that I'm not your enemy, but you owe me." The cloaked figure then removes their hood, but even though we can't see the figure's facial features, our SAO survivors and Rainbow gasp in shock.
Rika, Keiko, Kotone, Hiyori, Rainbow, and Nijika shout out in unison, flabbergasted, "YOU?!" Even though we can't see the figure's face, we do see their mouth as it twists into a familiar toothy grin.
(Heading another part of UNI-SHOCKER headquarters; around the same time)
Within another massive area of UNI-SHOCKER headquarters, we find a few figures looking down from a massive balcony at what looks like multiple duplicates of the Einzbern 'Greater Grail' linked together in the form of the Milky Way Galaxy and one of the figures leave where we go to look at the other figure where it looks like a female armored figure with pink and ruby red armor designed like a dragon.
The dragon armored figure says, in a female voice, "Soon…my wish will become a reality. I joined this evil organization, did horrible things, and even hurt other versions of her and our friends especially other versions of my best friend, but…it doesn't matter to me. Nothing matters other than all of you. Mom…dad…you would be really disappointed in me. But this is all for you…for Puu-chan…for Hotaru…Puu-chan was right about him all along. He proved it by not rising above and fulfilling what she predicted. And now, he will receive judgment for his sins. His crimes against us…against our people…our family and friends…will be paid for not by his life…but by his entire existence!" The female dragon armored female then takes off her helmet and while we don't see her facial feature, we see familiar pink hair in the form of familiar pink pigtails coming down her scalp.
End of Chapter 10
That's one ominous way to end a chapter, huh? Sorry for the cliffhanger, folks! However, I think that it makes all the more exciting. Anyway, before I leave, I'm sorry for any 'inaccuracies' in the Fate elements. While I have known about the Fate universe for years, I only know a basic amount of the lore until I got deeper with lore videos from YouTube and the wiki to learn what I can, so, I'm sorry for anything 'off' from that universe in this story. But I hope that this story is still enjoyable. Please keep reading and review, but no flames, please! Later and best wishes, Crossover Fans!
