The Senshi of Light: Chapter 6: A Spirit In Need
Like the chapter and know that I do not own a thing!
As the blonde girl approached the house at the end of the village she heard a yell from some of the man of the village and heard their running foot steps in the grass coming towards her.
Her hair streamed as she slowly turned her head to the running men who seemed to be scared to life.
"What? Is there something the matter?" the blonde asked innocently.
"Usagi! You shouldn't be out like this! You need to get inside! There's a wolf raiding the village! Get inside! Hurry! We're going to Hanch's house, that's where we're going, but I think you should go to Motoki's, first," the panicking men nodded and the ran into the tree stump house, locking the door behind them.
"Heh, apparently they even have a fear," the girl started to stroll towards the house and saw Reika sitting on the front porch with the small cradle that held the small young baby.
The brunette looked up slowly, her eyes filled with sorrow and grief and slowly saw Usagi approach the front porch.
The young woman stood and her eyes seemed to gleam with happiness, "Usagi! You're back! I'm so glad you're all right!" the other hugged the young Lunarian, "Are you alright? How've you been? Oh, you must be hungry, or tired, maybe you should go inside, go on in, I need to stay out here and wait for Motoki. You just go inside and wait," the motherly brunette rushed the blonde into the house and once the blonde was in she sighed in relief and muttered to herself, "Thank goodness she's back, at least there's one more child to worry less about."
Inside the blonde rabbit listened in on the woman's muttering to herself.
With a light sigh, she sat herself onto the seat that had a sword that was in a leather sheath. She looked at it curiously and picked it up and looked at it in interest. She traced her finger along the stitching of the sheath and then pulled the sword out half way and looked at the material of the sword. It seemed to be crafted from nothing that a she would know of and only a swords man would know.
Silently, the blonde slid the sword back in the the holder for the sword of Ordon.
The door to the wooden house opened and she looked to see the bright chocolate eyes of Reika's pop into the room, "Hey, Usagi, could you wait a moment? Apparently Hanch needs some social help, maybe you could start the kettle?"
"Yeah, sure, I'll start the kettle. Thanks, and take as long as you need!" the Lunarian replied happily. The brown haired woman nodded thankfully and she walked out and started to talk with Hanch.
The rabbit set the Holy Sword right next the the Ordon sword along with her transformation brooch, then the blonde stood slowly and went to the stove top and saw the kettle already set on the flame. Before keeping it going, the Lunarian carefully lifted up the metal kettle's lid and saw that there was no water.
With a small smile she happily took the metal water heater and placed it on the wood table. Her blue cerulean eyes scanned the room and saw a metal handled bucket of water. Walking up to it, she placed her pale hand on the handle and lifted up the water bucket and placed it on a table next to it.
Looking on the table was a ladle and she picked it up and started to lift a ladle-full of water into the kettle. The first scoop became steam and she poured some more water into the kettle and, after a few scoops, started to stay in its liquid form.
After about a few minute of scooping the water, she stopped and lifted the half full kettle onto the heater again and then lifted the 2/3 full bucket back to its original position.
After a minute of staring at the kettle, she shook her head and turned her back to stove and sat back down next to the sword.
The pale skinned girl watched the sword as if it would just suddenly disappear.
A sudden sound shook the girl out of her staring of the sword and she looked towards the corner of the house. Carefully, she stood and listened to the rustling and heard some metal clinking against itself and then a sound that she couldn't identify.
She heard a padding and saw at, the corner of the table, a wolf with a small passenger on top.
"Link..." the blonde breathed out in a voice that sounded pained and sad.
The strange marked wolf tilted his head to the side ad if her was questioning her about why she sounded like that.
"So, you're here too? Well, I must admit, you're quite the sly one," a twisted grin appeared on the imp's face, "So, how'd you get here?"
The blue shaded eyes seemed to cloud over and she looked away, "You- I- Its-"a heavy sigh came from the Lunarian's lips, "Now is nit the time. I should also ask you that question and why you're here," the girl finally but back.
"Hmm, quite a bit you have there, huh? Well, I'm a Twilit, that means I can go anywhere, practically. as long as there's a... warp hole, you can say? But, I need that sword, I want it so that I can use it," a small black hand pointed at the sword behind.
"The Holy Sword?" the blonde asked in disgust while her eyes shinned with amazement.
"Ohh? The Holy Sword? I know that the soldier of the planet Venus used it, once the monsters came out more. But, no. The Ordon sword. That's my goal. Anyway, let me have it and we'll be out of your business," the back and white skinned imp shrugged.
"Why? Why give it to you? Its not made for you," the blonde seethed.
"My, my! Strong spirited, aren't you? Just like this guy here when I first met him!" she roughly patted the wolf's forehead, "But, that's of no matter. I need that sword. I want it to fight some monsters! The way you humans fight, more specifically. Besides, we'll return it! Right?" the fiery eyed companion flicked the dark furred ear of Link's and the blue eyed beast growled in response.
"If you do, then I want to go, I've been gone so long and I couldn't protect this world, and even if it protects one person, then I want to help. So I'll let you have it if you let me come," the pale skinned girl preposed, her eyes not showing any sign of backing down.
The fiery twilight like eyes clashed with the pure bright cerulean eyes and they seemed to battle with only the movements of their eyes. The twilight colored eyes seemed to burn the more gentle blues but the cerulean ones fought back at the other by seeming to tear at the soul, telling it that she will not back down. They stood still, with Link breathing slowly while watching the eyes of his new friend.
After minutes of silence, the wolf's companion sighed and she closed her eyes gently in defeat. The voice of the imp's seemed to be soft for the first time and it seemed to hold an empathy for the other.
"I see. You want to actually do something and not sit around helplessly. Well, that's understandable enough. Bring your own sword and the Ordonian sword. Meet us at... That little house that's near that spring."
The sacred wolf understood that the fight was over and they should leave. He slowly walked back to the hole he dug to get and dug right back out.
Usagi sighed and looked at the kettle and saw smoke come from it. In, what seemed like a race, she took the forgotten kettle and poured it into a thick wooden cup and then placed a tea bag in the two cups. She hurried and grabbed the two swords and rushed out of the house.
In a quick thought, she yelled to Reika and Hanch, "A monster stole the sword! I'm going to go get it! There's tea I. The house ready to drink!"
Before a reply even came from the two she left the main part of the village and ran up to Link's house.
The Lunarian paused suddenly and held her brooch and whispered quickly, "Moon Eternal, Make UP!"
In a white light, Usagi transformed into her Senshi outfit and then continued to run towards to the house.
She ran up and saw Link sitting with the black and white skinned imp sitting. The Twilit wolf shook his head as if he was shaking water off of him.
"Hi," the senshi calmly said as she came towards them. Link stood up quickly, and then growled at the entrance to the woods area.
"Hmm, seems like wolfy here senses something. Well, let's see if you are really good of if you'll just be a weight to carry around," the imp remarked nonchalantly.
The senshi nodded and she held the sword defensively.
She watched as a horde of Bokoblins charged in, making their loud squealing sound as they started to attack with the horrible-made wooden clubs.
Usagi looked watched as they surrounded them and then started to laugh in a scratchy kind of way. She quickly used her sword and sliced it, hurting a front row of six bokoblins. While they recovered, another row appeared and got ready to attack. The soldier started to attack the monsters with her sword rapidly and the hurt one kept falling back to bring in more healed monsters. Her eyes darted to look at Link and she saw her was in no better position as he kept ramming and jumping onto them. He killed a few every once and a while but two more seemed to replace them.
In a quick moment's thought, the senshi threw her sword at the monsters, killing two red bokoblins.
In an instant, she moved her right arm to her ear in a holding position and her left in front of her with her fingers wrapped around and a flaming bow appeared. She let her right hands let their hold go and it went straight through a line of bokoblins. She turned to another row and moved her hands in the same motion. Quickly, the monsters fell to their knees on her side and she then turned to attack the rest that were now frozen in fear. She aimed at them and they shrieked. Before she let go of her fire arrow, the monsters were attacked by Link who jumped onto them and they all seemed the screech and scatter in panic.
A snicker came from the wolf's rider as he attacked the monsters madly, spinning around and pounding into them.
Usagi smiled lightly as she aimed at running bokoblins. She hit two that seemed to cross paths at the same time.
The remaining horde, which was now about a dozen, seemed to tell that the odds were against them and ran off in panic. The Moon Senshi quickly aimed and released another arrow that killed three more.
She sighed and started to kick the dead bodies of the bokoblins aside in search of her thrown sword.
"Hmm, that was strange. They rarely ever appear in a group like that..."
"Heh, normally," a twisted voice boomed.
"Who's there?" the imp asked immediately as she looked around wildly.
"No one of your concern. But, I was just trying to see how Link and Serenity were doing," the cool calm voice replied.
"How do you know that name?" the senshi seethed.
"I know it very well, Serenity or, I should say, Princess Serenity. You were the one who helped defeat Demise after all. You know, my Master?" the bodiless voice echoed.
The wolf growled in annoyance.
"Oh, but you were the one who weakened him enough so little miss Serenity could seal him. But, I never really died, I just broke. But, recently a swords man in Hyrule Castle fixed it. So, my powers came back and I can get my revenge on these two," a clinking sound, like jewels moving around hitting each other, seemed to have a man that had a pale face with a red scrunched up cape that had a gold chain connected to two sides. He had earrings that had a clear blue gem that was large and dangled down. His eyes had lining under it that was a dull violet. His legs and feet had white tights with diamond holes in them and a golden sash at his hips with a red diamond. On his face, though, was a black crack that seemed to be fairly deep.
"I don't know who you are," the Moon senshi yelled at the sight of him.
"Surprising, after all, you were the magical one who seemed to have quite a good amount of knowledge. But, I guess little wolf seems to also forget. But, oh well. I'll get my revenge no matter what. Just not now. Until then, I'll be plotting. Maybe even sending a few hordes after you. Bye!"
In a burst of sunny diamonds, the mysterious man disappeared.
"I don't like this, he knows my old name."
"Old name, huh? Than what's your real name? And who are you?" the imp bombarded the reincarnated princess with questions.
"I'm Usagi. Daughter of the deceased Usagi Serenity, the second queen of Crystal Tokyo. I'm the reincarnation of the legendary warrior, Sailor Moon, Princess Serenity, and Neo-Queen Serenity. Anymore information would take far too long. But, rest assured, I am on your team," the senshi replied slowly.
"Well, maybe you can tell me more of this later. But, we are heading for Faron Woods, for now," the transformed Hylian seemed to take this as a cue to start to move out.
He headed to where the monster mob went off to and dashed onto their destination.
Usagi kicked aside a bokoblin's body and found her sword just as Link headed off. She held the sword and sprinted to keep up with the wolf. She looked as her wolf friend stopped as if he seemed to hear something. He then turned suddenly to Ordon Springs and she heard a rapid thumping sound.
Her face became hard as she turned to see one of the beasts that had taken her earlier.
She looked to see rocks around the two beasts with a red marking energy fence.
She moved her hand to the fence like energy and retracted it immediately at contact.
"Link, kill him!" the senshi shouted as the sacred beast growled and attacked.
In a quick move, the wolf jumped and attacked the monster. He clung onto him and bit hard into the monster. The once Hylian bit hard one more time and the monster collapsed.
It seemed to burst into flecks of red along with the wall and rocks. The fleck of energy flew into the sky and disappeared.
"Link, Hero Chosen By The Gods, those shadow beasts have come to take my light, the last of the spirits. Please, help me and retrieve the tears," the disembodied voice echoed and a string of empty containers floated down and the Twilit imp grabbed it with her hair that transformed into a hand. She took it and then stored it in her endless pocket.
"Please, use your senses to find the bugs that hold my light and then return it to the spring at where you transformed into a beast the first time," the small light seemed to fade and the spirit went back into the reach of safety.
"Well, let's go find those bugs," the imp ordered dryly.
"Yeah," the senshi paused for a second and started at the glowing-green marked imp and asked, "What's you name, I never heard it."
A small smirk appeared on the Twilit's face, "Midna, and don't you forget it. Anyway, do you have any ideas for how to find the bugs?"
"I might be able to feel their presents. I'm not too positive, but maybe," the unconfident warrior answered slowly.
"OK, we'll now process to Faron Woods," the three different species headed to the looming Twilight wall and Midna floated over to it.
"I'll get you guys in, OK?" the floating imp went in and her transformed hair came out and grabbed Link and Usagi and pulled them in.
The senshi sat up and stood quickly. The two walked deeper into the forest and before they got near the spring, another area like before appeared and then three shadow beasts fell and landed. Usagi brought out her sword and Link pounced at another. The two knocked out the two but the last one made a horrifying screech and the others awoke.
Usagi then attacked the one who woke up the other monsters and knocked him down just as Link did the same with his. The last one screamed again and the other two woke up again and it all started over again.
"Why-" a yell from another cut off the senshi as she was about to start complaining about the monster's strange deaths.
"Silence Glaive Surprise!" a wave of violet energy raced at the monsters and they all died and disappeared in the same manner of the others.
"Sailor… Saturn?" the senshi asked in confusion as she turned to where the blast came from.
"Heh, you can only kill those guys by taking them all out at the same time," the woman smirked as she appeared from behind a tree.

Well, hope you've linked this chapter! Please Review! If you have any questions, please ask them!
Ohh, and if any of you have played or seen the trailer for the most recent Legend of Zelda, then you'll know who that man was! It's way too obvious! But, I will reveal Usagi's true past as Princess Serenity, for this story, and that is based off of Skyward Sword.
But, any thing that doesn't make sense, do tell. I'm still trying to get my mapping and stuff worked out.
So, have a great day... Or night, and try to review!
