LAST TIME ON "THE DAY THE ARGO BAR EXPLODED"! (Yes, this is the DBZ announcer guy XD) AFTER RETURNING HOME FROM A COSMIC BAR BRAWL, THE BRONZE SAINTS DEVISE A BUNCH OF, FRANKLY, REALLY SUCKY PLANS TO GET BACK AT THE SAILOR SENSHI WHO, IN THREE DAYS, THEY WILL FIGHT! WILL THE SAINTS THINK OF A PLAN THAT DOESN'T SUCK COMETS? WILL THE SAINTS OR SENSHI WIN? FIND OUT ON TODAY'S EPISODE!!
Suddenly, the young detective interupted Shun after writting down the most important points of the youngest Bronze Saint's story.
"Okay, I'll let the Senshi go next and then I'll come back to you guys, 'kay?"
The Saints nodded. Sailor Mercury then stepped forward to reperasent her allies.
"Here's how it all happened for us..."
As you know, there was a brawl that night at the Agro Bar between the Senshi and the Saints for no apparent reason. Both parties were expelled from the Bar by Jason Argo, the barkeep, who almost called the police on both warrior clusters. Instead of going straight home like the Saints did, the Senshi decided to go somewhere else since none of them were fit to drive just yet (well, except for Ami, but she did not yet have her liscence yet anyway). The girls stopped at The Twilight Restaurant which was owned by a friend of thiers, Videl Satan. A waitress took thier order which was simply to speak with Ms. Satan. The waitress spoke to her manager who spoke to his manager who spoke to her manager who finally decided to grant thier wish and Videl was sent to thier table.
"Hey, girls!" she greeted them and sat down. "So what's up?"
"Oh. My. GOD! You will not believe what just happened to us!" Minako started. Videl listened thoroughly to thier horror story about the five, pompus ass "Saints" who called themselves men just because they could get so drunk that they couldn't remember if it was Polaris (the north star) or Pluto that Earth recently realized wasn't really a planet, but an asteroid and beat on some poor girls just looking to have fun at thier favourite bar. The black haired young woman was outraged that anyone would do such a thing, especially to friends of hers. The girls continued talking and dissing the Saints while one of them, who was still quite drunk, slipped away to use the phone. Rei Hino stumbled along through a corridor where the bathrooms and the telephones were located. She began pressing random numbers until they made out a phone number. Who's phone number was it? She had no idea.
The phone on the other line rang and someone picked it up.
"Yggdrasil Goddess Service Hotline; We Sell Goddesses, Not Prostitutes! How may I help you?" asked the voice on the other line.
Rei let out a big, "Wheeeeeehhhh...?" which made the person twich slightly. She then hung up the phone muttering "Wrong number..." to herself.
She then dialed another set of numbers which were more random than the selection of each Youma-of-the-Day on her own tv show. Again, the phone ringed and was answered... by a cat.
"Pizza Cats Restaraunt! May I take your order?"
"Guuhhhh... Are you Seiya?" she asked.
"Ummm... no..."
The fire senshi then merely hung up the phone and returned to her dialing of random numbers. After about five more tries, fate finally decided to cut her a break and let her get the Saints. Hyoga picked up the phone.
"Hello?"
"The Agro Bar in three days at 6 PM. Got it? Us Senshi are challenging you guys." Sailor Mars muttered. She had put a cloth over the reciever so that he would not recognise her voice. This fire senshi may have been drunk, but she knew it was hard to forget the voice of someone who had repeatedly harrassed you by asking "What's the hurry?" because you were Russian.
"Three days and.. what?"
"I said, three days at 6PM!"
"Three days and sticks pee M? What the –!"
"Oh, God.. Whatever..." The senshi removed the cloth and threw it to the floor. "The Agro Bar. Three days. 6PM. Challenge."
"The Argo Bar, three days, 6PM, challenge?"
"Yes."
"Wait, lemme write this down..."
"Okay then..."
"Someone get me a pencil and a paper?" Hyoga asked. She could hear the others scrounging around for the things he asked of them."Okay, I'll just write on my hand. So that's The Argo Bar..."
"Uh huh."
"In three days..."
"Yup."
"At 6PM..."
"Yeah."
"And challenge?"
"Uh huh."
"Okay then."
"Bye."
"Bye." Hyoga hung up, but Rei still held the phone up to her ear, wondering with her slowed-down drunken thought processes where he had gone.
After a few minutes, Makoto had came and found her after she had finally realized he'd hung up. Makoto was already pretty sober, as were all the other girls, but it was apparent that Rei had a low alchohol tolerance, so she sobered up a little slower than them. While ridding home, Rei fell asleep... or actually, passed out, and totally forgot about the phone call. Once at home, the five princesses decided to call it a day since it was already 5 AM.
The next morning was pretty normal. Rei had her massive hangover as did some of the other girls. Luna and Artemis were too busy sorting out planetary work to really notice thier sick senshi. Ami decided thier house was too messy and began cleaning.. All was well... Until the guardian cats called thier warriors for a meeting in the living room. The girls' hangovers had, luckily for them, subsided by that time.
"Girls, there is urgent news from Io," Luna started off.
"It seems thier princess has up and dissappeared!" said Artemis. The girls were shocked, especially Makoto. Io, afterall, was one of her closest neighboring kingdoms being one of Jupiter's moons and all and she was good friends if thier princess.
"Princess Guinevere is gone?!" she exclaimed. "B-but how?! What happened to her?!"
"The King and Queen of Io are unsure, but there seems to be great tension now between Io and Lord Arthur's Palladium Saints," the black cat began to explain. "Before the Princess' dissappearance, it seems that Lord Arthur showed signs of affection toward her. You see, he was there to negotiate how a criminal against both the Saints and the Ion Kingdom would be punished and he simply couldn't keep himself away from her. Then she vanished the day before he and his Saints left the kingdom, so now the two are pit against each other. Lord Arthur says that he did no such thing, but..."
She was interupted by a chorus of groans made by her soldiers. Both felines looked confused.
"Of course those Saints say they didn't do it! They'd sooner set thier pubic hairs on fire than tell the truth," Rei commented. Ami looked uncomfortable at the thought of Seiya, Shun, Ikki, Hyoga, and Shiryu standing around, setting one another's pubic hairs ablaze as a sign of protest, refusing to swear to tell the truth while they were on trial. The jurry, the audience, and judge all watch in horror as the police man holding the bible near them backs away from the oddly smelling smoke beginning to form. (Author's Note: Sorry for such a graphic image.. XD) She shuddered at the image.
The other girls nodded, still leaving the cats very confused.
"Well, I guess everyone has thier own opinion..." Artemis said quietly. He obviously had no idea about yesterday night's events.
"Anyway, you girls don't particularly need to do anything. The Asteroid Senshi have been sent to investigate the whole thing and if anything goes wrong and they need help, they'll call the Shitennou, but they just wanted for us to inform you girls just in case they need further reinforcements," concluded Luna. "Alright, this meeting's over, girls."
The rest of the evening was pretty uneventful. Rei and Usagi fought over a masazine after which Usagi made a spectacle of herself by crying her eyeballs out. Makoto was still fuming over the incident with Arthur and Guineviere. Ami, Minako, Luna, and Artemis, merely enjoyed thier meal, which was rather below par as far as Mako's cooking went due to her rage. The days past, and still, Rei's little conversation with Cygnus Hyoga was forgotten.
