Chapter 3: Tomo o Sukue Samurai Heart
"It seems they are gone." Luna remarked at the horde of policemen ran past the trio. Right now, the three were hidden under the train platform.
"But,what made you change your mind?" Touma asked.
Luna smiled apologetically, "I'm sorry I misunderstood. I saw you guys fighting, Follow me."
Meanwhile in Mr. Chin restaurant, ninjas were attacking.
Mr. Chin gestured to the Nastui and Jun, "Run you two. Quick !... Why you're doing this knowing this is Mr. Chin's restaurant?"
One of the ninjas scoffed, "Be quiet if you want to save those two's lives."
Jun cried out, "Mr. Chin!"
Back to where Ryo, Touma and Luna was, the three had made it under the water purification plant.
"We'll be safe here." Luna told them.
"It's a serious injury, Touma." Ryo noted.
The blue-haired genius let out a wry smile, "I didn't expect to be saved by yesterday's enemy. It was happening lady."
Luna waved his complement aside, "Don't call me lady , I'm Luna."
Ryo blinked, "Luna , unlike the name, what you do is wild. He's Touma, I'm Ryo Sanada , Everyone calls me Ryo ...What's that noise?"
Luna shut her eyes and replied wistfully, "This is the water purification plant. Everyone forgets it here though it's right below the city, Only a few residents in New York know about this place. I played here so much with my brother. I can't get lost even with my eyes closed."
Ryo frowned, "Brother?"
Luna wept silently, "Even as he was , he was the only family I had. I can't forgive these who killed my brother"
"Damn!" she cursed, hitting the ground furiously.
"Is it really her, Mercury-nee?" a soft voice interjected.
"From what the orb says, yes." another voice replied.
"You..." the two Samurai Troopers gasped at the new-comers as Eternal Sailors Mercury and Saturn descended from the staircase Touma was on.
"Just as I thought." the Senshi of Ice noted, the red orb in her hand pulsing a blood red, before raising from her open palm and into Luna's stunned hand.
"This..." Luna blinked, not understanding.
The two Senshi smiled, "Elder Senshi to Princess Serenity, Senshi of Fire. Welcome back Sailor Mars."
"Me? One of you?" Luna was remotely stunned.
"Yes. If you wasn't, that power orb won't have reacted to you." Eternal Sailor Saturn replied.
"You won't be lonely anymore, Luna. From now on, we will be your new family." Eternal Sailor Mercury smiled.
Just then, Shu and Shin were just walking by and saw them.
Jumping down, Shuu pointed accusingly, "You...still suspecting and following us? I Shu Rei Fun will take care of you."
Ryo stepped in the stop the fight, "Stop the two of you . The misunderstanding was lifted Shuu."
Shin shook his head at his best friend, "You're hasty as usual, Shuu."
The bearer of Kongo pouted, "I got a thankless role."
"So, how do I activate this?" Luna asked, looking at the two Senshi, then at the glowing orb in her hand.
"I'm surprised you aren't shocked." Eternal Sailor Saturn remarked.
"Hey, I live in New York. Nothing can surprise me any longer." Luna shrugged.
In Los Angeles, Shikaisen was viewing the surroundings in a viewing screen.
"People on the ollse. Go wild for now , I'm looking forward to Korin showing it's true color." the ancient spirit chuckled.
The mad scientist quickly objected, "Wait for a while. Shikaisen. He can't resist this strong mind control much longer. Even so, he's stubborn , I'm telling him he can be free if he wears the Korin armor and shows the true ability to the computer."
Shikaisen laughed, "You guys will watch the interesting thing that the armor power showed me."
A bound Nastui screamed, "Stop it!"
Shikaisen turned his attention back the the viewing screen, "I'm looking forward to the day this wonderful power becomes mine."
The group had by then returned to Mr. Chin's restaurant and there was a sign on the gong: "Come to Little Tokyo – Shikaisen"
"Looks like Shikaisen is back to his old tricks again." Ami muttered.
Hotaru nodded in agreement.
Shuu punched the gong angrily, "Damn, they use the dirty tricks, they're trying to lure us in."
Mr Chin remarked miserably, "It was too late when I came to the hall, Jun and Nastui were caught by guys who looked like ninja, They were taken away because Mr. Chin was helpless."
Ryo shook his head, "We're the ones who are troubling you. I'm sorry."
Shuu nodded in agreement, "It's unlike you, who got a glorious injury to say such things."
Shin interjected, "This is our responsibility because we acted separately."
Shuu nodded, "It's not the time to be obstinate."
Ryo agreed, "Yeah, though we know it's a trap, we must go."
Shuu added, "We might be able to save Seiji together too."
"But what about the Sailor Senshi?" Shin asked.
The other two looked at the bearer of Suiko and fell silent.
"We have to go, that's a given." Ami replied sternly from the staircase.
Hotaru nodded in agreement, "Shikaisen slipped through our fingers once. We won't let it happen again. Although Luna isn't remembering as fast as we had hoped."
"Wish we have Luna's 'Mind Meld' or Usa-chan's Ginzuishou." Ami muttered.
Ryo then cleared his throat, interrupting the girl's conversation, "Let's go check on Touma."
Shuu nodded quickly in agreement, "Yeah."
"Don't be rash, Touma." Luna advised.
The relatively injured Trooper replied, "I'm not tough like Shu, but I recover quickly, so don't worry."
Luna chided, "Don't say that and wait until I bring back some good medicine. See you."
When Luna was out of earshot, Shin turned to Touma, " We'll go and save Nastui and others as soon as your recover from your injury."
"And the two Senshi?" Touma asked.
"They insisted on tagging along." Shin replied.
"You know they could be of help." Touma reasoned. "After all they had encountered Shikaisen before."
"Luna." Ami began as the door closed.
"Yes?" Luna turned to the blue-haired girl.
Ami sighed and continued, holding out a white glowing ball, "Pluto wanted me to give you this."
Luna nodded and took the orb which instantly entered her body.
Memories of the Silver Millennium flashed before her eyes and Luna fainted, but not before Ami caught her.
The time of reckoning had arrived as the unwilling group walked along the demolished Little Tokyo.
"Man, what extras we got." Shuu moaned.
"Who do you think brought you here?" Luna retorted.
Shin grinned, "They sound like brothers and sisters."
Shuu frowned, "Drop it. I don't want such a wild sister."
Luna snorted, "I don't need to be liked by you."
"Children, can we leave this for the bad guys?" Ami inquired in resign.
Looking at the demolished town, Ryo commented, "Look how openly they destroyed this town."
Meanwhile in Shikaisen's underground place, the ancient spirit was chuckling at the scene before him, "I didn't know there were, four more armor, Come on quick Samurai Troopers."
"That's brother Ryo and the others." Jun beamed happily.
"I'll give you once more chance Korin, move the armor yourself." the scientist demanded.
Seiji glanced over at the captured Nastui and Jun.
"How unfair." the bearer of Korin grimaced.
"No, brother Seiji!" Jun cried out in warning.
"That computer is trying to analyze your armor gear's power." Nastui warned.
"It must be under here. It reacts most strongly here." Shin remarked, his yoroi orb glowing brightly.
"There were given to the five of us to uphold." Shuu smirked at the awed Luna.
Just then, the underground doors opened and ninjas jumped out.
"They are the ones who took Nastui and Jun." Ryo realized.
The four Troopers droned on their sub armor.
"Ladies." Ami grinned.
Luna and Hotaru returned her grin full force and produced their henshinn pens.
"Eternal Mercury Crystal Power!"
"Eternal Saturn Crystal Power!"
"Millennial Mars Power!"
"Make Up!" the three girl chorused together.
Three blinding lights of light blue, indigo and red later, the three girls were replaced by legendary Planetary Senshi.
"They're human so we can't kill them." Millennial Sailor Mars noted.
"Use your weakest attacks." Eternal Sailor Mercury suggested.
"Weapons?" Eternal Sailor Saturn inquired and whipped out her Silence Glaive.
"Thought you never asked." Millennial Sailor Mars smirked and produced her Flame Bow.
"Why do I even bother?" Eternal Sailor Mercury sighed.
"Hey watch that!" Ryo exclaimed as two of Millennial Sailor Mars' flame arrows whizzed past him.
"Is this the thanks I get for saving your behind?" the Mars Senshi inquired jokingly.
"We had it under control." Shuu muttered.
"Sure you have." Millennial Sailor Mars stuck out her tongue.
"Can I use 'Mute'?" Eternal Sailor Saturn asked amusedly.
"You could, but we all know Mars' temper." Eternal Sailor Mercury replied.
"Where are you? Come out. We won't run away." Ryo demanded.
Just then, Shikaisen's image appeared as the shrine door slid open.
"You're the evil magician from the other day." Shuu commented.
"Don't so be rash. Or you'll never see your friends again." Shikaisen laughed.
"Wait!" Ryo shouted after the disappearing spirit, with the others following close behind.
Shikaisen smirked evilly and pulled a lever, causing the ground beneath the group to open and making the seven fall.
"Double Shabon Spray..." Eternal Sailor Mercury began her attack phase.
"Freezing!" she called out.
The four Troopers winced slightly as the torrent of icy bubbles rushed past them.
"What was that for?" Shuu demanded.
"You'll see." Eternal Sailor Mercury replied.
Seconds later, the four Troopers fell heavily on the frozen lake, while the three Senshi leapt to safety.
"This is the reason." Eternal Sailor Mercury remarked, pointing at the frozen lake.
"Brothers!" Jun cried out.
"Welcome. I researched the oriental armors. If you want to save your friends life, do what I tell you to do. I won't treat you badly. When you're exposed to electricity a comfortable moment comes. You'd better let your body go and toss your consciousness." the scientist instructed.
"When your consciousness comes back, interesting dreams are waiting for you." he added.
"Where is that Shikaisen?" Millennial Sailor Mars demanded.
The scientist did not reply, instead, he pressed a button on the console, activating the two giant eyes on the wall.
The huge mechanic eyeballs emitted two strong streams of lightning towards the group.
"Silent Wall!" Eternal Sailor Saturn lifted her Silent Glaive, creating a protective barrier around the group.
Unexpectedly, Jun swung from the rope he was tied to and kicked the scientist, causing him to lose his balance
"Stop!" Jun shouted.
"They did good, Jun and Nastui." Shuu smirked.
"Damn." the scientist cursed.
"Seiji!" Touma immediately leapt to rescue his friend.
"You came Touma." the blond swordsman heaved in relief/
"We're all here." Touma assured.
The scientist ordered, "Don't touch it!"
"Tell me the keyword for the armor gear's seal." Ryo threatened.
"It's not necessary. He operated it in front of me." Nastui replied, typing on the computer.
"You were careless." Ryo remarked, holding the scientist hostage.
"What a bitch..." the scientist hissed.
Shikaisen rebuked, "Idiot, I cooked all the way.
"I'm sorry." the scientist apologized.
Shuu pointed heatedly at Shikaisen, "He appeared again. I will get him this time."
Shikaisen however, laughed, "How lively. Up to this point you're only dealt with evil spirits that didn't have intelligence. See how much you can do to me. Shikaisen, now has mastered the oriental wisdom."
"Mars Flame Spear!" Millennial Sailor Mars formed a lance of solidified fire and tossed it at Shikaisen.
"I see you're back to your old tricks." Eternal Sailor Saturn grinned.
"I won't forgive you for the contamination of Korin's armor." Seiji promised, stepping out of his prison.
Touma tried to stop him, "Stop, you're not up to it..."
Too late as Seiji droned on his armor, "Busho, Korin!"
Shikaisen scoffed, "Idiot, I know all about your armor."
"You know his armor, but do you know our power?" Eternal Sailor Saturn death-panned, as the three Senshi reached Shikaisen's level.
"Saturn Death Ripple!" she called out her attack. Waves of death energy shot in all directions from the blade of her Silent Glaive and Shikaisen was caught in it.
"Mars Fire Snake!" Millennial Sailor Mars produced her Flame Bow and shot a fiery arrow at the trapped spirit. The arrow then materialized into a fire snake and engulfed Shikaisen.
"Very good, Mars, but not good enough." Shikaisen declared, expanding his power and breaking free from Saturn's constrains.
"Okay, he's tough. I'll give him that." Millennial Sailor Mars commented as the three Senshi were thrown off the platform.
"Ouch..." Eternal Sailor Saturn moaned.
"If Jupiter and Venus were here, this would be so much easier." Eternal Sailor Mercury muttered.
Pulling Nastui at gun point, the scientist typed in some words into the computer.
A program was activated as all five Samurai Troopers were caught by the six-pointed star talismanic seals.
"Damn. Let me go!" Shuu demanded.
"Did you know that yin and yang fortune telling of ancient China had the same principle as modern computers ? Not only that, we can chain both together." the scientist declared proudly.
Shikaisen laughed, "The electrical brain that succeeded my wisdom will discover your unknown power."
after some more typing, the scientist was stunned by the results, "It can't be, is it a super dense crystal that can't be measured by normal parameters? if I put the Korin's data here I might be able to clear up uncertain data."
Shikaisen then looked at Jun as if he was going to attack him.
"Jun!" Nastui cried out.
"I'm so going to shoot myself for this." Eternal Sailor Mercury muttered. "But here goes."
Shikaisen laughed when he saw the Ice Senshi standing up to face him.
"What do you think you can do when Mars' and Saturn's attack didn't do anything?" he mocked
"This." Eternal Sailor Mercury glared at the spirit.
"Mercury Tsunami Glacier!" the two weakened Senshi and the trapped Troopers watched in awe as a massive wave of ice, cold water and energy shot from the Senshi's body, freezing the air on it's wake, and freezing the undead spirit.
"Sister now." Jun took advantage of the distraction and held the scientist's legs as his shot missed.
Nastui nodded and typed in some commanded into the computer, releasing the seals.
"Hurry up, everyone." she turned to the five Samurai Troopers.
Just then, Shikaisen broke free of his ice prison and looked disdainfully at the freed warriors, "It seems you guys have no intention of cooperation with me, What the life of a human being useful for? Only a strong leader will be the bridge to survival. the one that forms the ultimate time, I, who am immortal see the weak as just a blink that disappear and floats."
"The reason why you see that way is your brain is rotten!" Shuu shouted.
"Busho, Rekka!" Ryo droned on his armor, the rest of the Troopers following suit.
Shikaisen taunted, "Do you think you can run away from me?"
Ryo finished off Shikaisen with his 'Sou En Za' tech.
Shikaisen moaned as he melted under the heat, "I won't be ruined forever..."
The scientist laughed manically, "This is the completion of science and ancient wisdom united."before getting killed by the deformed Shikaisen.
Nastui gasped, "This is..."
"As if things couldn't get any worse." Millennial Sailor Mars muttered.
"Don't jinx it, Luna." Eternal Sailor Mercury warned as the illusion materialized into the Troopers' main enemy, Arago.
Seiji remarked, "This is the memory of the armor without mind."
Shu fired his Iron Rock Crusher but the image reflected the attack back to him, Shin was about to do his attack but Touma stopped him.
Touma voiced out, "Wait, this artificial ghost knows all out behavior patterns."
"Form the Kikoutei guys, we'll hold him back." Eternal Sailor Mercury called out.
The four Troopers nodded and transferred their powers to Ryo.
Joining hands together, the three Senshi powered up.
"Sailor Planet Attack!" they cried out, the pyramid of planetary powers clashed into the illusion.
Ryo declared, "Evil, be destroyed." and performed his 'Hen Sou Za' tech.
The next day, everyone stood at the bridge, the girls one one side, the guys on the other.
"So this is it then." Ryo began.
The three girls nodded.
"We still have to find the other two." Ami remarked. "And searching for two people in the entire city of New York is almost like finding a needle in a haystack."
"Guess I have to work harder to get to the 'Eternal' level." Luna joked.
"But that 'Planet Attack' tech you girls pulled was amazing." Seiji remarked.
"And very exhausting." Hotaru added and the group burst out laughing.
