Double Jeopardy
Chapter 11: The Battle of Tokyo Midtown
"Thank you for riding Tokyo Metro Hibiya. Now stopping at Roppongi Station. Please bring all belongings with you. Please stay seated until the train comes to a complete stop and watch your step as you exit the train. Have a nice day," the automated message said in Japanese, then repeated itself in English, Chinese, and Korean, as the subway train lurched to a squealing stop, like a giant underground slug dying a sweet slow death.
Rei, already not a fan of public transportation, found all versions of the announcements irritatingly cheerful. Who wouldn't after spending the last thirty minutes sitting crammed between a rather creepy looking middle aged business man and a loud obnoxious teenage boy that wouldn't stop leering at her and asking for her phone number? The nuns at TA academy had described to Rei the Christian hell many times, and from what Rei could recall from those long lectures of eternal damnation, fire, and brimstone, hell couldn't hold a candle to having to endure a trip via public transportation. Especially the subway.
She had originally planned to get to her destination with Minako, but since the blonde had to work unexpectedly, Rei was forced to take the subway since the shrine's old battered car was in the shop. Again. Minako had apologized profusely when she had called earlier that morning, and had promised she would be there later to enjoy at least a little bit of shopping with her friends and to bring Rei home. After this, though, Rei was seriously considering killing Minako on sight until she realized that would mean she would have to ride the subway to get home.
The moment the doors opened, Rei practically pushed the irritating teenager out of her way, scrambling toward the door as fast as she could, like a moth flying toward a bug zapper. There wasn't a force in hell ... or worse, this subway car, that could keep the fiery miko from missing her stop.
While Tokyo Midtown could be reached by an underground passage, Rei felt a little sunlight and fresh air would do her good after being crammed like a sardine inside of that tin can. Besides, it was only a short walk to her destination from here. She didn't stop running until she was out of the terminal and back in the morning sun. She stopped for a moment to take a deep breath of fresh air (at least, fresh air for a major city) and enjoy the feeling of warmth that the morning sun provided to her skin once again. Happy to be free from her subterranean prison she said, "Thank god! It's nice to feel human again!"
The newest addition to the Tokyo skyline was her destination. Nearly six years in the making, the Tokyo Midtown Tower Project loomed over her as if she were a mere bug. At fifty-four floors, the glass skyscraper was the tallest building in the Tokyo prefecture and the fourth tallest in the country. The various buildings and land that made up the the Midtown Project housed a wide assortment of facilities. Everything was there, from museums, residences and office space to the new Tokyo Ritz Carlton, a rather large park this deep into the city, and restaurants. It was literally possible to live, work, and play all in the same complex without ever having to brave a journey across town. And of course, the stores! Even Ami could find a shop to happily blow money here!
Still, Rei never really did enjoy modern architecture. The tall, gleaming glass building smacked of modern monstrosity. She much preferred the peaceful grounds of the shrine to places such as this. But then, they were going shopping, so she could overlook what was in her mind the building's unappealing design. An amused smile appeared on her face as the thought that Ami would probably not shut up about the architecture of the building for the next three weeks.
Once Rei reached the entrance to the main tower, she walked inside the glass doors, which opened by themselves like something out of Star Trek. The area beyond the entrance was a large, brightly lit, open five-story area, lined with shops on all floors. There were support columns throughout, and on the far end were elevators and escalators. Hard gray marble floors beneath her feet and a building directory in front of her made up the rest of the environment. Ultra-modern summed it up nicely. Rei did find the support columns scattered throughout the area interesting though as they seemed to split up like branches of a tree near the ceiling.
Just as Rei was through the doors, she was pulled into a bear hug! As she proceeded to squeeze the life out of her, Usagi said excitedly, "Hi, Rei! It feels like forever since we got together just to have some fun! Just think of it! No setting people up, no meetings, no saving the world, just all nine of us having fun! Won't that be great, Rei Chan?"
Roughly the time that Rei was going to complain to Usagi about not being able to breathe she let her go. As the oxygen rushed back into Rei's lungs, she noticed that Setsuna was the only other one there at the moment. Deciding in the interest of preserving the happy atmosphere, for once Rei didn't gripe at Usagi and instead said, "Minako is going to be late, but we should be able to meet up with her at the food court around lunch time. Where is everyone else?"
Setsuna answered quietly, leading the small group to a nearby coffee shop on the other side of the plaza. "They went to pick up Ami and Makoto. I came here by myself so they would have enough room in Haruka's car."
Rei looked at Setsuna with a puzzled expression and asked as she walked with them, "Why didn't Ami just drive up here in her car?" Then she said with a little surprise in her voice as she put two and two together, "Ami was already with Makoto? As in, overnight?" Usagi's eyes darted back and forth between Setsuna and Rei as the two spoke. Rei took Setsuna's silence as a yes and said, sound disappointed, "Aw damn it, that's just great. I owe Minako 20 yen." She sighed as she added, "I'm never going to hear the end of this from her."
Since they had reached the coffee shop, Usagi ordered them all a plain cup of coffee to help conserve their money for shopping and quietly listened to the exchange between the two as she waited for their order and for the others to arrive.
Setsuna looked a little frustrated with the turn of conversation. "Look, it's none of our business. Besides, they didn't do that. They just explored their relationship more, that's all."
An amused smile crossed Rei's face as she spoke. "I see. They 'explored there relationship'. Is that the term they are using for it nowadays? You say that like you know what they did."
Trying to remain the voice of reason in the conversation, Setsuna replied, "I didn't watch them, if that's what you're implying."
Usagi paid for the coffee and handed her friends their cups as she took a sip of her own.
Rei took her cup of coffee from Usagi as she asked Setsuna, "I wonder what the two of them did."
Setsuna moved her cup of coffee up to hide her smile just as Usagi asked, almost as if on cue, "Why are you so interested, Rei?"
Rei got a look of surprise on her face, then glared at Usagi angrily for a moment before answering. "I'm just curious, that's all." Then twirling away from the two with a frustrated sigh Rei asked, "Where are they anyway? As fast as Haruka drives, shouldn't they be here by now?" She stood glaring at the entrance she had come through only a few minutes ago on the other side of the plaza, secretly hoping the other group would be entering at that very moment to help give her an excuse to change the conversation. This subject had become uncomfortable to Rei, even if she had started it.
Just as Rei was about to turn back around to face her friends, the glass doors exploded inward throwing shards at nearby patrons of the new building as a battered yellow sports car flew through it! After the car smashed through the building directory, it spun in circles for a moment as it came to a stop near the center of the shopping area, throwing one of its unlucky occupants through the front windshield as it did so. The impact of the car against the doors set off several sprinklers near the entrance soaking everyone who was trying to flee.
The body flew through the air like an out of control missile, past terrified onlookers and between support beams. Then, just as the unlucky individual got a few feet from the wall on the far end of the plaza it did something that even with Usagi's limited understanding of physics should have been impossible to do. It stopped in midair. Hovering for a moment longer, Dark Sailor Pluto lowered her small frame to the ground. After taking a moment to dust herself off, she jumped back into the air and flew back toward the car, sending a bright purple ball of energy flying ahead of her. It smashed into the car, blowing it to bits just as its occupants scrambled to get out of it sending her friends and foes alike plus small hot pieces of the car flying in every direction.
Setsuna watched the cashier run back into the kitchen to tell her coworkers what had just happened and to take shelter. Seeing that they were temporarily alone, Setsuna grabbed her companions' shoulders and said, "Now would be a good time to transform."
Usagi let her attention leave the tire she was watching roll across the floor when Setsuna spoke. Feeling a little stupid for not coming to the same conclusion' she said said, "Uh . . . right!"
"MOON ETERNAL POWER!"
"PLUTO PLANET POWER!"
"MARS CRYSTAL POWER!"
"MAKE UP!"
As energy flowed around them while they transformed, Sailor Pluto commanded, "You two find Ami and Makoto, and make sure the two of them are OK. We will buy you time for Ami to formulate a plan. Once she has, back us up. Until then, I want you all to watch and make sure the rest of the Sekkou don't show up and outnumber us."
As fire wrapped around her, Sailor Mars looked furious at being told to step aside. After all, It wasn't like they were kids anymore. "You expect us to just sit this out while your group gets all the glory?"
As they finished transforming, Sailor Pluto said suddenly finding it difficult to keep her patience, "This has nothing to do with glory. It's the closest thing to a plan we have for the moment. Now go!"
Trying to end the argument, Sailor Moon grabbed Sailor Mars's shoulder and said, "Come on, Mars! I think Ami flew this way when the car blew up, and I saw Makoto land somewhere inside that clothing store over there."
Meanwhile, out in the plaza, the fight was already in full swing. The area was lit up by various energy attacks being hurled back and forth as pedestrians ran out of the building to avoid getting killed in the powerful crossfire. The phenomenal attacks formed craters into the hard marble floor and smashed through thick stone walls like paper! Merchandise and parts of the building flew through the air like deadly shrapnel as brand new shops and displays became part of the expanding war zone.
Sailor Uranus set her sights on her double Amara, Dark Sailor Uranus, but from the moment she started her assault, the odds quickly went in her double's favor. Not necessarily because Dark Uranus was a better fighter, but because, unlike Haruka, she simply refused to fight fair. At first the two merely traded punches back and fourth, nether able to score a decisive blow on the other. Then as they moved their fight near a small jewelry stand, Dark Sailor Uranus brought her fist down onto the glass case, shattering it. Blocking Sailor Uranus's next punch with one hand, she used her other to scoop up a hand full of glass. Ignoring the pain as the shards cut into her hands, she brought up her fist as if to return the punch, then instead threw the glass at Sailor Uranus's face.
She closed her eyes for a moment and stepped back, bringing up her hands to protect her eyes as the sharp pieces of glass sliced into her skin. Her opponent wasted no time in delivering a powerful kick to Sailor Uranus's stomach. She staggered back for a moment, but had recovered quickly since she had tensed her stomach muscles in anticipation of her opponent's actions, then dove behind the cover of a steel column.
It gave Dark Sailor Uranus just enough time to prepare for her next move as she did several back flips herself so as to put some distance between the two. Then she pointed at Sailor Uranus and yelled out, "WORLD SMASHING!"
Sailor Uranus felt the steel support she was hiding behind buckle then splinter into pieces as a powerful yellow energy wave crushed her into the ground, sending up a cloud of dust and chunks of marble. As the dust settled, she found herself laying in the center of a crater.
Sailor Neptune had her hands full with Michelle, Dark Sailor Neptune. Unlike her lover who preferred to get up close and personal, Dark Neptune preferred to attack from the air. Hovering several feet above Sailor Neptune she rained attack after attack down on her opponent, mostly just sending turquoise blasts of energy toward her. It didn't take Sailor Neptune long to realize she was being toyed with since the attacks didn't seem as strong as she would have thought.
Before Sailor Neptune could get an effective counter attack launched, she heard Dark Sailor Neptune yell, "TIDAL TSUNAMI!"
At first, nothing happened. Sailor Neptune smiled and took a few steps forward saying, "Looks like you need more practice with -" She was cut off by a low rumbling sound. Now it was Dark Neptune's turn to smile as the cinder block wall just above her shattered as if it were glass, and a wave of water smashed into Sailor Neptune this time knocking the air out of her. The wave lifted her off her feet and smashed her through a wall, then receded like a gentle tide as she slowly slid to the ground.
Sailor Saturn and Trista, Dark Sailor Saturn, were locked in a contest of skill over who was the better with their weapon. Dark Saturn's version of the Silent Glaive was a bit longer than Hotaru's, which, along with her height gave her more reach, but Hotaru was just a touch quicker which allowed her to compensate. The two weapons clanked together loudly for a third time, then the two began twirling their weapons, trying to slice into each other and at the same time dodge the other's attack, resulting in both hitting only air. If it weren't for the large sharp point on their staffs glistening in the light, they would have looked as if they were putting on some kind of a show.
However, whenever Trista felt Hotaru was starting to get the upper hand, or came just a bit too close for comfort to slicing into her flesh, Dark Sailor Saturn would swing her glaive straight down toward the ground. A seemingly simple and perhaps unwise act given the fury of Sailor Saturn's onslaught, except that she knew that simple move could very well bring about the destruction of the world. So she was forced once again to stop trying to inflict a decisive injury upon her opponent and block the other's weapon, which brought the two back to square one.
This time, when the two weapons made contact, Dark Sailor Saturn used her staff to push Hotaru back several feet, then jumped into the air and flew in the opposite direction several more feet to give herself more room. Once she reached a more desirable distance, she hovered in the air and watched Hotaru regain her balance.
Dark Sailor Saturn smiled sinisterly down at her opponent, then called out, " Harvester of Souls!" As she laughed insanely, she raised both hands as a ball of energy black as night formed between them. Then she opened them, releasing it. As it flew toward Hotaru, the black sphere took on the shape of a giant skull and seemed to make a sound reminiscent of laughter as it flew toward her. Sailor Saturn had just enough time to raise her silence wall before the hideous skull smashed into the shield, sending waves of dark energy curving around her barrier, then caused an explosion that was strong enough to send Sailor Saturn, still encased within her shield flying like a ball through the air.
Sailor Pluto and Dark Sailor Pluto were standing several feet from each other, talking as if the fight raging around them weren't happening. "It's awfully nice of your companions to leave you to us," the evil twin of Hotaru said as she gripped her Garnet Rod in her hand tightly. "Why should we waste our time fighting anyway? We both know who is going to win, so you should just surrender now." As if observing the destruction around them for the first time she added with mock sadness, "All this violence and destruction is such a waste of time and energy."
Sailor Pluto looked at her opponent as if sizing her up and said, "They haven't abandoned us." She left it at that to indicate she wasn't about to give away how much or little they had planned for this encounter, even though this was potentially impossible to avoid while dealing with a warrior of time. Then, answering her second comment, she said, "The future is never set in stone. It is always in motion, always changing. We wouldn't fight you if you would just come and talk to us. There is still the chance we could actually resolve whatever your dispute with us is peacefully." Narrowing her eyes at Dark Pluto, Setsuna said with just a hint of anger, "But a peaceful resolution isn't your desire, is it?"
The seemingly youngest Sekkou cackled maddly for a moment as if Sailor Pluto's response were the funniest joke she had ever heard. "You know what your problem is? You are so predictable, and you want the rest of the universe to go how someone else has decided it should. In reality you would be a lot happier if you would just step aside and let the universe do whatever the hell it wants to." Then, as she gave Sailor Pluto a rather insane smile, she said, "If you joined with instead of fighting the chaos of the universe, I think you would find you would greatly increase your own power. For instance, Pluto is the god of the underworld. Yet you seem to have no wish to use that power. You rely on a limited ability to control time and space, and one insignificant attack, when an entire army rests at your feet."
As if to demonstrate, she whispered, "Summoning of the necromancer." She tapped her staff on the ground gently as three rectangular shaped holes formed in a row in front of Dark Pluto. "Witness a taste of what you could be capable of if you would simply choose to not follow the rules laid down by a kingdom long since turned to dust." As she spoke, three beings emerged from what Sailor Pluto had come to realize were graves.
The animated corpses clawed their way into the light for the first time in decades. The first were the badly decayed remains of a samurai, his once proud katana badly rusted, and leather armor weathered and rotting away in some areas. He seemed to have the look of someone who had died on a battlefield and was left to rot away with no one but the crows to mourn him, rather than being given an honorable burial. Second was a businessman. From the looks of his suit, he had died in the late 1950's. He had pale skin that looked cold to the touch, his eyes had sunk far back into his head, and his skin had only recently started to grow a dark green mold on it. He made a moaning sound, and as he did so a greenish liquid spewed from his mouth. Last in line was the reanimated body of a small girl clutching a stuffed bear. She looked to be from about the early 1900's, judging from the design of her dusty, discolored kimono. She lurched forward slowly, as chunks of her decomposed skin and locks of hair fell from her body.
This last poor soul struck a cord somewhere within Setsuna. It was bad enough to have died so young, but to have someone desecrate her innocent body in this way was simply appalling. Clutching her staff tightly, she said, "The dead deserve to be allowed to rest. As a guardian of time, there are many things we are not supposed to do. Just because someone can do something, doesn't mean you have to. Your actions are ... unforgivable. Disgraceful at best."
As her slaves stalked toward their prey, Dark Pluto said, "You see? There you go again with your rules. You keep referring to us as guardians of time, when what we really were meant to do is be mindless enforcers of destiny. Let me tell you something . . . Setsuna, is it? I have decided to make my own destiny, and I personally find the experience to be liberating. Why be an enforcer of rules when we could be gods?!" It seemed the damned souls took her closing words as their command to attack.
Now forced to defend herself, Sailor Pluto parried a swing from the samurai's sword, sending rust flying as their weapons clashed together. The warrior's animated corpse tried to scream with rage as he attacked again, but his jaw and bits of his dry flesh fell from behind his ceremonial mask, distorting his battle cry to a high-pitched demonic shriek.
As she blocked another blow from the samurai, the child zombie threw her worn bear to the ground and jumped onto Sailor Pluto's staff, wrapping her arms and legs around it and trying to bite Sailor Pluto's hands. As she changed her grip to avoid receiving a nasty bite, she noticed her third attacker approaching her at as close to a run as the rotting businessman could manage. Seeing an opportunity to get rid of her hitchhiker, she swung her staff at him smashing the little girl into his ribs. There was a loud, sickening wet cracking sound as the two undead collided.
Just as the two smashed into each other, the suit zombie burst into flame, catching the small rotting child's kimono on fire as well. He twisted involuntarily as his tendons and what was left of his muscles and bones burned. The dead child released her death grip on Sailor Pluto's staff, fell to the ground with a thud, and ran a few feet before the flames consumed her entirely. As both corpses burned to dust on the marble floor, Sailor Pluto and her undead Samurai opponent both looked around for a moment to try to discover the source of the blast.
Sailor Pluto laid eyes upon Sailor Mars just in time to see her send another blast of fire at her last attacker, causing his leather armor to curl up as it burned. The katana fell from his hands as he landed on his back, while the fire engulfed him and slowly burned the fallen warrior and his comrades to ashes. Then she watched as electricity wrapped around the evil version of Hotaru, causing her to scream in a mixture of surprise, pain and pure rage.
Her adversary momentarily stunned, Sailor Pluto asked whichever of the nearby Sailor Guardians would answer her, "What plan did you come up with?"
Sailor Jupiter stepped from her hiding place behind a rather tall floral display and put a hand in front of her mouth nervously for a moment as she answered quietly, "Uh . . . none?"
Sailor Mars spoke up, practically gloating, "We realized you were losing so we decided you all needed our help more than anything else at the moment." Smiling at the irony of it, she added, "For once we get to save your butts!"
As Sailor Pluto looked around, she noticed Sailor Mercury was helping Sailor Neptune fend off Dark Neptune, and Sailor Moon was doing her best to help Sailor Saturn deal with Dark Uranus. Sailor Jupiter was already making her way over to Sailor Saturn to help her defeat Dark Saturn. Despite the lack of coordination they usually used, the battle had clearly reached a turning point in their favor. It looked like the loose objective was to herd all the outer rim planetary Dark Sekkou to the corner farthest from the entrance. That would make it possible to allow them to either talk over their differences, or annihilate this group of Sekkou once and for all.
Sailor Pluto decided to take the moment to make sure that the evil version of her daughter was out of the fight. She whispered "Dead Scream!", sending a large ball of purple energy slamming into the girl before she could fully recover from Jupiter's attack, causing her to fly through the air, ricochet off of a column and slide across the floor, stopping just shy of the corner they were trying to herd the Sekkou to. She was either badly hurt or knocked out all together from the looks of it because she didn't even try to get up. Odds were she would still be there by the time her teammates joined her.
Surprisingly, the Sailor Guardians were able to get the rest of the Sekkou to congregate there without using much force. As soon as Dark Saturn saw Dark Pluto's body slide to a stop, she yelled out to her partner, abandoning her fight with Hotaru and Makoto, as she ran to aid her fallen comrade. Realizing they were severely outnumbered, Amara and Michelle quickly made their way there as well.
It was almost too perfect.
The Guardians seized the moment and surrounded the Sekkou, effectively trapping them in the corner. Even if the Sekkou tried to fly now, they would be knocked out of the air in an instant. Sailor Pluto said calmly, "Now, as I was saying to your injured team member, it still isn't too late to talk this out. What is it you want?"
Trista was showing a surprising amount of concern for Hotaru as the Sekkou of time lay on the ground. As she tended to the other's wounds, she answered angrily, not even bothering to look up at her double as she spoke, "There isn't anything to discuss. Only a fool tells their enemies what they are doing."
Sailor Jupiter spoke up, trying to stay calm and keep the adrenaline flowing through her under control, "You can't win now. Even you must be able to see that. We aren't about to stoop to your level and torture you. All we want to know is why you insist on fighting us and to see if we can come to a mutual understanding without having to kill each other. That's really not too much to ask, is it?"
They watched as large sinister smiles formed on Dark Neptune and Dark Uranus's faces. Sailor Mercury was thinking maybe they were going to get at least a delusional comment or insult, but nearly jumped out of her skin when she heard her own voice answer Sailor Jupiter from behind her.
"Oh, it is really quite simple, even for a bunch of simpleton, goody goody, screw ups like the lot of you. We want you to die, one by one, slowly and painfully." Then after giving an amused laugh, Sailor Mercury heard her voice add, "Preferably screaming all the way on your journey to hell!"
Sailor Moon looked at Sailor Mercury sounding bewildered as she said, "Geez Mercury, don't you think you're being just a little harsh?"
Ami turned around slowly while a look of dread formed across her face and answered ruefully, "That was not me, Sailor Moon."
Rei, Usagi, and Makoto joined Ami in turning around, while Hotaru, Setsuna, Michiru and Haruka kept watching their doubles. Sure enough, the five missing Sekkou had finally decided to make their appearances. Suddenly the tables had turned and they were the ones that were surrounded. Dark Pluto let out another insane laugh as she jumped to her feet, demonstrating that she wasn't as badly hurt as she had let on.
Haruka voiced what the others were thinking as she said angrily, "Damn it! It's a trap!"
Sailor Mars, refusing to believe they were suddenly in the loosing situation, and sounding as if she were just told she had done a complicated math problem wrong, said, "Wait a minute, we're smarter than this!" Rei strained her mind to its limits trying to think of how they were going to get out of this. As the de-facto second in command behind Minako, she felt it was her responsibility to get them out of this. 'OK . . . we are surrounded by people who for the most part have scaled up abilities compared to us, cheat, and want to kill us for reasons we still haven't figured out, and we are out numbered by one since Minako isn't even here. What would Minako do in a situation like this?', she thought to herself as she looked around. Then she looked in to the eyes of the Sekkou they had the most experience with, almost as if she would give her an answer. As Amy glared down at them from where she was hovering, it clicked into Sailor Mars's mind what Minako would do.
"OK. Uh … Sailor Mercury! What do we do?", she asked. If any of them knew how to get out of this, surely it was Ami.
As the Sekkou moved to neaten up their circle the Sailor Guardians were now trapped in, Sailor Mercury edged toward Sailor Saturn slowly, trying not to be obvious about it. She hoped Hotaru was getting the message. Ignoring Rei for the moment, she looked at Dark Sailor Moon and asked, "So, you are just going to kill us all right here, right now," Sailor Mercury spread her arms out for a moment then finished, "and not even tell us why?"
Serena looked at Ami with genuine regret on her face. Unable to look them in the eyes, she looked away as she spoke. "Because it is the only way we can think of to save ourselves." Then she said sadly, "For what it is worth, I'm sorry."
Finally Dark Sailor Saturn, unable to stand the delay any longer yelled out, her voice echoing like an angry god in the large, cavern-like room, "Enough! Dark Sailor moon, kill them and be done with it."
Dark Moon hesitated another moment, as if she were unable to make up her mind. Then, a look of fearsome determination crossed her face as she started to glow brightly and lifted herself in the air. She started to spin slowly, then quicker and quicker as she built up energy and lowered herself back to the ground. Still spinning, she knelt down, then held up her hand and stopped so she was facing the Sailor Guardians and yelled out, "Moon Spiral Heart Attack!"
As the area around the Guardians turned dark, Sailor Mercury yelled, "Now, Sailor Saturn!"
Once again Sailor Saturn cast her silence wall, the dark energy barrier forming around their group just in time, as a giant blast of energy in the shape of a heart slammed into them. The heart smashed into the shield causing a small explosion. Some of the Sailor Guardians yelled out in panic, not fully realizing what had happened. A bright light suddenly blinded everyone for a moment, and then ...
As the light cleared and their eyes adjusted the Sekkou looked at the sight in front of them with emotions ranging from confusion to anger. All that was there was a large dark hole with sparks from exposed electrical conduits and water from burst pipes shooting into the air. The Sailor Guardians had apparently been completely annihilated.
Author's Note:
Tokyo Midtown Tower is a real location. The chapter coinciding with it's opening places the events of Double Jeopardy around Spring, specifically late March, 2007 for chapter 11.
