Chapter 4: Game Master Arc: Return to School
"No way…" Touma breathed, eyes widening as their homeroom teacher introduced the transfer students. "Seiji…" he nudged his seat mate.
"Yeah, I know." Seiji nodded.
"But why…" Shuu gaped.
"And when did Luna's name change to Lunari?" Ryo was puzzled.
"Yo Shin." Shuu greeted his best friend at lunch. "You'll never believe who transferred to our class today."
"The girls?" Shin guessed.
"Yeah," Shuu blinked. "How do you know? Oh…" he muttered, Shin pointing to the four girls seated together.
"What are you playing?" Seiji asked, approaching the girls and noticing Litana was focused on a Gameboy.
"Pokémon." Litana replied.
"Gotta kill'em all." Lunari muttered.
"Not a fan of Pokémon, I suppose." Ryo joked.
"Not really." Lunari shrugged.
"Seventy-two…" Litana cut in.
"What?" Seiji and Ryo blinked.
"I'm just counting how many Pidgeys I caught so far." Litana elaborated.
"Litana Haru, playing videogames in the cafeteria is against the rules." Principal Sato's voice announced through the intercom.
"And how did he know?" Ami wondered as Litana kept her Gameboy.
"Good question." Touma admitted.
"I have my sources." Sato's voice noted.
"Weird." Ditea muttered.
"It is, isn't it?" Sato asked.
"Eh..." Ditea blinked then sighed.
A man stood in a dark room looking at a huge array of consoles inter-connected and smiled. "Now I'll summon the ones that shall destroy the Senshi..." He inserted a cartridge and two more figures materialized in the room. "Welcome."
"We live to serve you." The first one, a tall creature that looked like a crossbreed from a punk, a dinosaur and a turtle, said.
"I know." The figure in the darkness said.
"Mamma mia! What are your orders?" Another figure, a short man with a moustache and a blue overall, asked.
"Your mission is to locate and destroy the group known as Senshi. The weaker group is currently in Toyama, so I'd suggest you go there first."
"As you wish, Master." The turtle creature said and the group vanished.
"Yes... she will be happy. I, the Game Master, will be known as the one that destroyed the Senshi." Evil laughter ensued as Game Master thought about his untimely victory.
Ditea was walking towards the Game Center, "I wonder what Setsuna meant when she said the enemy will attack here." She mused when she saw the two figures approaching the building. "What the hell are Mario and Bowser doing here?" she sighed and dashed into a nearby alley.
She looked out and saw Mario ready to toss a few fireballs at the building. "Oh, that." She muttered. "I better change for the party. Millennial Venus Power!"
"Stop it right there!"
Both Mario and Bowser turned to the voice and saw Sailor Moon standing on top of a brick wall and glaring at them. "You know, girl, you shouldn't stand there. You could fall down." Bowser noted.
"How?"
"Someone could break the wall down." Mario explained and shot a few fireballs, causing the wall to explode in a shower of brick shards.
Venus landed painfully on the ground and moaned "That wasn't funny."
"How about this?" Bowser asked and leapt up, turning in mid-air so his spiky shell was facing the ground.
Venus screeched and leapt out of the way, barely missing being crushed by the massive creature. "Okay, that's it, now I'll have to give you both a beating!"
"You think you can beat us, little girl?" Mario asked. "Maybe we should ask a few friends..."
Bowser nodded and rose his arms, summoning a few dozen koopas, Bob-ombs and other assorted critters. "Your turn, dwarf."
Mario grinned, and produced a green-spotted white egg. The egg cracked and the green dinosaur known as Yoshi appeared. Mario leapt on Yoshi's back and shouted "Let's party!"
Venus smirked, "Okay. V-Laser!"
Yoshi looked at the incoming light beam for a second, then his tongue shot out and it ate the attack and spat the light beam back at Venus, who leapt out of the way and paled as the reflected attack destroyed a wall. Mario and Bowser laughed at that.
"Okay, now I'm mad..." Venus muttered and charged at Yoshi and Mario. Bowser's army of assorted critters swarmed her. "I HATE BRAWLS!" She shouted and punched a koopa away. Jumping back, she barely dodged as one of the bob-ombs exploded. Yoshi used his tongue to grab her by the waist. "Hey, lemme go you stupid dinosaur!" the Senshi snapped.
"Mars Fire Snake!" Yoshi was hit by a fire snake and staggered back, dragging Venus along. "You okay, taichou?"
"I'll be okay when I get rid of this tongue-tier." Venus muttered. Yoshi started dragging her towards him.
Mars tried to help Venus, but got swarmed by the smaller critters. "Damn..." She started punching and kicking creatures away, but she was clearly outnumbered.
Venus was less than three meters away from Yoshi, who kept dragging her closer. "You better tell your pet to let me go."
"Why should I?" Mario asked.
"Because I could do this if you don't... Crescent Barrage!"
Bowser flinched as both Mario and Yoshi got blasted back a few blocks by the rain of light beams. He then turned to Venus, "Well, you can beat the dwarf and his pet, but can you beat me?"
"V-Laser!"
Bowser shot a fireball at the incoming attack, making it explode, then grinned "You gotta do better than that, light-girl."
"Icycle Spray!"
Venus gasped as Bowser got obliterated by the beam of ice shards. She looked at the source of the attack and saw Mercury standing on a nearby rooftop. "Err... Thanks."
"The battle's not over yet." Mercury reminded. "Go get Mario, I'll help Mars."
Venus nodded and dashed down the street.
Mercury turned to where the crowd of creatures were fighting Mars, and saw the Senshi of Fire was clearly outnumbered. With a single leap, Mercury landed amidst the creatures. "Leave them to me, you're in no condition to fight."
Mars nodded and stepped back. Mercury was right, she had some nasty bruises all around her body.
Mercury turned to face the creatures, giving them all a cold stare. "I don't know how computer data could come alive, but I do know I can kill it." She noted. "Tsunami Freeze!" The attack blasted the remaining creatures to dust.
"Thanks." Mars said with a smile.
Mario came running up the street, riding Yoshi, and followed by an angry-looking Venus.
Mars watched them zoom by and sighed, "I see she's changed her tactics..."
"V-Laser!"
Mars blinked as both Mario and Yoshi were vaporized by the light beam. "Wonder if we could get to Eternal too?"
"You girls will, eventually." Mercury smiled. "You just need more experience."
"Well, let's tell Litana about this." Venus suggested.
"Are you serious?" Litana echoed.
"I know it's hard to believe, but we're not lying." Ditea assured.
"Mario and Bowser... wish we were there..." Shuu mused.
"Yup, you guys would be a great help." Lunari agreed.
"No, I mean, I could've asked for their autographs." Shuu corrected. Everyone else fell on their backs in unison.
"Well, maybe they were acting on their own." Ami suggested "Maybe they were the only threat."
"Mario, Bowser and Yoshi evil?" Shin echoed. "Bowser I can take, but the other two would be a bit out of character..."
"You mean there's someone else controlling them?" Ditea realized what the Suiko bearer meant.
"And I bet they won't give up so easily." Shin nodded.
Game Master sat in front of his strange gadget, typing commands on it "Bah... Mario and Bowser failed. Guess I'll have to summon something else... next time, the Senshi will be destroyed for sure." He stood up and laughed, then stopped and looked at a notebook resting on a nearby table. "But first, I must finish that math problem... damn homework."
SailorStar9: Now that's done, read and review.
