Miracles and The Ghostforce
The children's book is a running theme. Mostly because I liked the idea from Wild Force about someone remembering the Kingdom of Animaria and writing a children's book about it. Demiyah's comment about people forgetting Magic's place in the World's was deliberate. Since during the Silver Millennium all World's had a complex trade system. Silver Millennium fell, so did the trade system and the connections people made. Few remembered the World's outside Earth and were forbidden to speak about them.
Chapter 3: Not Everything Is What It Seems:
Demiyah was running an errand for her Mama when she turned a street corner and heard yelling. She recognized the voice as Mercedes Miller. She was Luke Cage's younger sister and Drake's mother. His father Damien was Aisha's cousin. Demiyah was quick to use her invisibility to hide and set her Justice League comm to record. Demiyah openly couldn't believe her ears. Was Drake getting abused? He seemed to be fine in school, but then again part of her medical studies showed that people could hide their emotions in abusive situations. She needed a second opinion on this but wasn't sure if And, Liv, or Mike would believe her. Switching off her comm she teleported to a back alley near where Natsumi was sending her. It was a grocery store. They were almost out of certain items for two females and a couple minor householdy things like sponges to wash dishes, dish soap, milk, bread, and shampoo. Demiyah was also low on her snacks so Natsumi made sure she had money for that. Demiyah paid for her groceries and heard a scream. She stuffed her purchases in subspace and ran for a safe spot to transform. She could see it was a Comic Book Character brought to life from the Comic Book World. Wasn't that just her luck? She ducked into an Alleyway looked around and called out, "Beetle Bonder." Sparks of blue electricity ran down her arm as the Blue Bonder formed in her hand. "Beetle Blast!" Blue electricity wrapped around her as it formed armor on her body turning her into the Blue Stinger Beetleborg.
The Monster, one from the Nightmare Witch arc of the new Starbright Cosmic series done by Art Fortunes snarled as Andy was up against a wall. Liv, Mike, and their parents were in a cage. The one in charge Nukus chuckled, "And Not a Beetleborg in sight." Demiyah as Stinger Blue said, "You wanna bet on that?" Stepping out Nukus said, "Impossible. I destroyed those powers! How do you still have them?" Demiyah said, "The one thing you forget is how unpredictable certain types of magic are. When the Magical Spirit who gave me and my teammates our powers created the Mega Spectra powers, his magic recreated them. So I have both my Classic Powers and my Metallix powers to fight whatever comic book character you bring to life." She made use of her stinger blade as Nukus retreated. The Monster which was a Gargoyle/Vampire hybrid attacked her in an effort to drain her blood. "Mega Blast! Thunder Stinger!" Her armor looked more like the Ninja Storm Megazord in Lightning Mode as her optic sensors where her eyes were changed to gold from being red. She gained the engines on her legs and a flight pack that looked like wings on her back as the Thunder Stinger materialized. Smirking inside the helmet she said, "Sorry Monster. Back to the comics for you." She shot off using the engines and her flight pack to grab the monster and fired the Thunder Stinger hitting the monster directly. The blast from the Thunder Stinger sent the monster right back into the comic book world. She approached Andy and asked, "You okay?" Andy said, "Yeah. I'm fine. Thanks for the save. Why didn't Sailor Moon help out?" Demiyah knew she couldn't reveal her civilian identity. However there was a little used loophole in that rule. She chuckled, "Because when I saw the comic book monster I decided it would be better to use the power set that for battling comic book characters brought to life rather than my powers for battling magical enemies." Mike said, "Wait, your Sailor Moon? Your just using a different power set?" Demiyah said, "Yep. It's why I've been so helpful for the Justice League and the Avengers. My various skills and power sets enable me to do more than just one thing. Stealth, Rescue, even off planet missions. Though I don't take too many of those in recent months. Not since the defeat of the Galra Empire that was ruled by Zarkon, Haggar, and Lotor. I was also a part of the Voltron Coalition. Using the healing aspect of my Sailor Scout powers and acting as a medic." Liv asked, "So are the names from the special editions not who you are under the suit?" Demiyah said, "Art Fortunes was planning that contest long before he made it known he was aware of who we were under the suits. He wanted hardcore fans to have their chance to be a hero in their own way." Andy said, "In an interview as Sailor Moon a few months ago, you said despite your parents efforts you never had many chances to be a child. What did you mean by that?" Demiyah said, "As any hero does, I have an arch enemy. My arch enemy is called Diomedes." Liv said, "Like the bad guy from the story book The Moon Princess and The Silver Kingdom!" Reporters were gathered around and recording, "It's the same man. One of my allies is writing about the Silver Millennium. So people know what happened all thsoe years ago. The few who remembered after the fall, and the Earth Kingdom all but shattered into it's seperate empires without the High Kingdom to watch over them, were forbidden by their rulers to speak of it. As they felt if not for the Moon Kingdom, the Kingdom in which I hail from, the Earth would still have it's High Monarchs. Eventually they denied Magic itself a place in the world. Countless innocents who at one point considerd Holy Men and Women who were blessed by a greater power to serve as the shields for those who couldn't defend themselves. Because of the Darkness of Despair. It's tainted powers left influence on billions of people through out the galaxies. It's why we have criminals and villains even to this day. Where there is Darkness there is Light. The closer you are to the Light the greater your Shadow becomes. Anyways, I have to report to the League. So I gotta Bug Out." She turned into a flying beetle and took off.
Back in her home she said, "Bug Back. Back Blast." Demiyah unloaded the groceries from Subspace and put them away. Her snacks she placed in the cupboard marked for her packaged Snackage and made plans that weekend to visit Duckburg, Disney Town, and Twilight Town for her drinks and icecream fix. She also had to check in with Sora, Roxas, and Dewey. Dewey was the easiest. He often went to the skatepark so they could meet up there to talk. She would be disguised using magic. Roxas was the second easiest. He lived in Twilight Town with the former Sailor Tin Nyanko. Nicole as her name outside of uniform was. All she had to do was say Nicole knew her godmother and she had been asked to run an errand for her godmother who was very busy. Sora was the hardest. He lived on Destiny Islands and it was a very small world. So the only way she could check in with him was to double check the Time Gate and send a coded message on their wrist comms. She knew the three boys were her elite guard. But it still felt like a fairytale that she was a princess. She remembered the day like it was yesterday. Even though it was six years ago.
Flashback
Demiyah as Sailor Moon watched in horror as children her age and younger were being rounded up to be fed to Metallia. She felt such worry and a burning desire to save them the seven Rainbow Crystals broke the bubble she was in, The seven crystals swirled around her and formed the Imperial Silver Crystal. The crystal connected to the Crescent Moon Wand and her Sailor Scout uniform melted into a gorgeous white gown with gold interlocking loops. Her raspberry hair turned show white, her molten gold eyes turned silvery blue, and her tanned skin paled to an almost earthreal snowy white. The most astonishing feature was the pair of snow white wings with gold star patterns of the feathers. She held the wand in front of her and said, "Cosmic Moon Power!" Destroying the monster and breaking the bubbles. Taking her wand Again she said, "Moon Healing Escalation!" And healing each of the children. Turning she saw her protectors staring at her. The kneeled and said, "Hail and well met your highness. We are thrileld to be in your presence once more. Crown Princess Serenity of the Moon."
End Flashback
Demiyah knew there was a lot to do before the Crystal Moon Kingdom. For one finding her Prince and future King. It wasn't Endymion obviously. Or else they would have been closer in age. She just couldn't shake the notion it was Fury. Whoever he was. Why else would she have felt what she did around him? It wasn't like when she dated Ken to keep Yolei away from him. It was a mutual break up for both of them. Ken knew they weren't meant to be. That was okay for him. He knew his Princess was still waiting for him to find her. Then again, Demiyah never told the Virtue Digidestined aside from Tyson and Mimi about how she was a part of Ryo's team to take down Millenniummon. Or rather to save him. Millenniummon was indeed one of Ryo's partners. Monodramon was his partner too. Justimon was proof enough of that bond. The poor Agumon that had been chosen for Ryo. As far as Demiyah knew, that particular egg was taken by Gennai and locked away to and she was quoting him, 'Never see the light of day ever again.' It hurt Ryo and Demiyah knew it. She didn't see a single shred of remorse in the so called Digital Guardian's face. Jackie and a few others were stunned. Mimi, though it was a rule unless Stratus was awake, desperately wished she could reveal her Virtue Senshi status. But they didn't know if Sailor Stratus was awake. Gennai was supposed to watch over the Digital World until the twelve Legendary Soldiers were ready to take up rule. Veemon had been deleted by Inoue and Gennai basically told her he was gone and to leave. Not even bothering to check her digivice for any clue. Mind made up she put her shoes on and went out leaving a note.
Demiyah was riding the subway to where she asked to meet Mimi. She had her Blue D-3 with her. Mimi said, "Yes Demiyah what can I do for you Princess?" Demiyah said, "First off, don't call me Princess. Second, you can scan Digivices right?" Mimi asked, "You want me to scan yours to see if Veemon's still around don't you?" Demiyah said, "Please. I have to know. Gennai is hiding something from us but what!" Mimi said, "My friend and sister in arms, let's call her May, used the back door Jackie gave her to Gennai's mainframe. I don't know how to say this Demiyah. Gennai, isn't the real Gennai. I don't know who he is. But I do know he's dangerous. So please be careful." She scanned the D-3 and smiled, "Good news Demiyah. He's alive and waiting for you." Demiyah said, "The Gennai duplicate said I shouldn't come back to the Digital World anymore." Mimi smirked, "Not his call to make. Hello May, activate protocal Spectral 3. Okay great thanks for doing that. No issues with you 'teaching' a trio of newly fledged Digidestined. Since you do go to school with them. By chance you stumble on Veemon while taking them to meet their partners..." Demiyah laughed, "Certainly would put his credibility in the toilet." Mimi handed three D-3's to Demiyah. One was silver with ice blue grip, the second was purple with dark pink grips, and the last was yellow with electric green grips. "So take these to Andy, Liv, and Mike. Teach them about the Digital World. Be their answer to Zordon. Do better than this fake Gennai."
Demiyah texted Andy, Liv, and Mike to meet her at her house. Something they hadn't done before. Natsumi and Kasai were interested, but left it be. After her bio parents left Demiyah explained about Digimon, the Digital World, and what being a Digidestined meant. Surprisingly, they accepted their Duty.
The four looked around the area the Digital Gate sent them to. It almost reminded Demiyah of the Grand Temple of the Golden Kingdom. There were four creatures waiting each holding a pendant. There was Veemon holding the Crest of Miracles. A Monodramon holding what Demiyah knew was the Crest of Determination. A Kunemon holding the Crest of Loyalty. Lastly was a Salamon holding the Crest of Compassion. Salamon approached Liv, Monodramon approached Andy, Kunemon approached Mike, and Veemon came up to her. The fake Gennai showed up and demanded Demiyah, Liv, Mike, and Andy leave but Demiyah said, "Not happening you fake. I was selected by one of the Virtue Senshi one of the twelve true rulers of this World to teach and mentor these three new Digidestined. Besides, if Veemon was really deleted permenantly, who's the Digimon next to me?" Veemon smirked as he felt the familiar surge of Digisoul. A golden glow ignited around Demiyah. "Golden Armor Energize!" Golden light came out of her D-3 enabling Veemon to Golden Armor Digivolve into Magnamon. The Gennai fake said, "You shouldn't be able to ignite Golden Armor Digivolution without the Golden Digiegg." Demiyah said, "The Golden Radience is inside me. It isn't dependant on the Digiegg or my Crest. Their amplifires for the power I was born with." Magnamon attacked the fake Gennai who was revealed to be NeoDevimon. Demiyah called on the power of the Digiegg of Courage. "Magna Blast!" "Fire Rocket!" The two powers combined to destroy NeoDevimon reducing him to data particles. Moon Princess, though unknown to the Baker siblings and Mike, fist bumped her faithful Knight and dear friend. Demiyah offered a proper explanation back home. She told them about the different attributes of Digimon Data, Virus, and Vaccine. The different types and groups that she knew of. Also long term changes from being a Digidestined that she discovered over time.
The next day at school the four Digidestined/Junior High Heroes were eating lunch outside as it was a nice day out. Sharing lunch with their Digimon. Andy said, "This is so cool we can go to the Digital World. I'm glad where our partners come from is peaceful. But Hopmon said something about a war brewing." Demiyah said, "DemiVeemon told me the same thing. But it's not happening in the sector our Digimon come from. There are several layers and sectors of the Digital World. So it's very rare that a situation in one sector bleeds into another one. Bleeding into our world however, that's a whole different scenario. I've seen it happen more than once. Word to the wise, Digimon are deleted permenantly in our World unless their Data is collected in a Digital Field by a D-Cell. Though by all things sacred between your partnerships do not let their data get absorbed. There is far too high a chance not enough of their data will survive to rebuild their Digiegg. one of my brother's Takato had a teammate that had it happen to her partner. Luckily, I was versed with Megitech enough to track down the Base Data signature and safely extract it without harming the Digimon whom had been controlled to delete the partner Digimon. Of course Takato helped out a lot. If not for his Hazard Power I wouldn't have got as far as I did."
Veemon was plesantly surprised to meet two of the Original Digidestined and even more shocked that they were his partner's birth parents! He waited for Demiyah to come back from patrol.
Demiyah as Sailor Moon ran through the city. Also mentally cursing herself for losing such an important object. Fury was up ahead and saw her. "Hey you okay?" Demiyah looked at Fury and said, "I lost something really important to me. A music box locket. I've had since I started collecting the Rainbow Crystals six years ago. It was one of the few things from the Moon Kingdom I had left. It gave me so much comfort and I lost it." Fury pulled out her Locket, "You mean this? I found it on morning patrol yesterday. I was wondering what it is. The song is really nice." Fury opened the locket for a moment and the song that played wasn't the one Demiyah usually heard. She realized what song was playing and said, "That song only plays for the Soulmate of the owner of the Locket. Since it's mine and it's playing for you. It means we're Soulmates Fury." Fury looked torn before ushering her to an abandoned warehouse that had no cameras. He looked at her and said, "Promise not to freak if I reveal my identity?" Demiyah realized what he wanted and replied, "Only if you don't freak out about mine." Fury nodded. "On three then. One." Demiyah looked at her Soulmate and said, "Two." At the same time they said, "Three!" The two detransformed and stared in shock. "Demiyah?" "Andy?" Andy said, "Wow. All this time I wondered who it was under the magic and now I know." Demiyah blushed and said, "I honestly was hoping you were Fury. But I didn't want to press my luck. With romance it's been pretty bad." Andy said, "We can figure it out along the way. Come on, let's transform and finish patrol together." The two transformed back to their hero forms and took off. On top of the Brooklyn Bridge Demiyah told Andy, "You know, the best thing about knowing is I can keep people who would use you like they tried my older brother far away from you. I still don't know who Myst and Krush are. But I'm glad I know who you are. I love you." Andy smiled, "I love you too." The news crew caught the exchange. Liv and Mike were stunned. The fangirls of Fury were saddened along with Sailor Moon's fanboys. Everyone was even more stunned when they saw Fury and Sailor Moon kiss. Silvery pink and electric green light swirling around them.
Miss Jones smiled and looked at a picture. It was of her and a young man when they were Teenagers. "WIlliam Cranston you were the best thing that ever happened to me. If I wasn't stuck like this we'd be married now. I miss you."
