A/N: I'll make this short and sweet since I have deprived you of reading the next part of my story for this long. First off, I'm sorry it took me as long as it did to get this out, but better late then never! Certain things have happened around me that it's made the writing process slow and difficult, but I will try for all of you. I hope that you haven't lost the interest in my story…please continue to read, and support me. I need all the support I can get….I promise that I will keep writing….
Oh! And heads up…I wrote this chapter in basically one go. So, if there are any mistakes, which I'm sure there will be plenty, I'm really sorry, but the fact that I had left you all dangling by a single piece of rope was really frustrating and depressing the hell out of me. So…..enjoy!

DISCLAIMER: (look at previous chapters)
"Do you think they'll succeed?"
"It doesn't matter what I think"
"Alright. Will they succeed?"
"I cannot answer that and you know it"
"Then what can you answer?"
"That"
Drops of sweat formed upon his brow and then slid down, falling to the ground and landing with a loud thud, loud enough to wake the dead.
Everything was in slow motion. He could see everything, a detailed flash of what seemed to be eternity but in reality was only a second.
He let out a loud yell before positioning himself in fighting stance. He was going to get Usagi out of there, or die trying!
"You want to fight?" a loud high-pitched voice questioned in a mocking tone. With a flutter of her eyelashes, she placed her hand on her head "Oh my...the fear!"
Tuxedo Mask growled, clenching his fists even tighter. "Where is Usagi?"
"The little blonde twit?" her malicious eyes shone with amusement. "She's in there" she nudged her head a little and pointed to the castle behind her. "Pleasing the Prince" she added as a cruel afterthought. Her grin became wider as she saw his reaction to the news. It was defiantly pleasing. "That little whore wont get her paws off him! Honestly...she should do something other than stay on her knees all that time"
"SHUT UP!" Tuxedo Mask roared out in anger. He made his way over to her, running with everything he could muster, hoping to break through the barrier...hoping he could kill that green haired bitch! But before he could plant his foot on the ground after his sixth powerful stride, he was thrown back with a wave of her gloved hand.
"It's so cute seeing you try" she opened her fan and covered half her face with it. "It is, really, but if this is how you're planning on saving that blonde whore, you wont get very far" she fluttered her eyelashes in an unsuccessful attempt to be coy.
"Ugh...Disgusting!" Mars spat. Tuxedo Mask threw her a quick look, then stood up and ran towards the barrier once more, and again thrown off to the side like a rag doll, landing with a painful thud.
"You wont get through the barrier that way, Tuxie! There has to be another way!" Venus shouted at the top of her lungs. "Hey Merc!" she called, trying to get the blue haired girls' attention. Mercury quickly looked over her shoulder and faced Venus, giving her all her undivided attention. "Pull out your little computer thingy and start finding out a weak point...I mean, there has to be a place in which the barrier can be hit and destroyed right?" Venus asked with hopeful eyes.
All heads turned over to Mercury and she felt herself shrinking and wishing that the ground would swallow her. "W-well...I..I'm not sure. There can be a possibility that particles didn't go through proper diffusion and are stuck in one area rather than distributed evenly" she took out her mini computer and her fingers began to type rapidly. "Give me time" she added. Tuxedo Mask nodded.
"Just keep her talking"
"You're only saying that because your jealous!" Venus taunted. "It's very understandable. I mean...look at her. She's beautiful with her long blonde hair, cerulean eyes, pale flawless skin, and then...there's you. Nasty green hair with visible split ends, that horrible outfit, and I can clearly see a huge pimple right by your nose!" reading Emeralds shocked expression, she continued. "Oh yesss, don't think you covered it with make-up. It's too big for that!"
"HOW DARE Y-"
"You know what? Venus is right. I can see it from all the way back here!" Uranus taunted. Soon, everyone began to join in and add their two cents of criticism, which didn't go well with Emerald. In the mean while, Mercury was rapidly pressing her thin fingers onto her mini computer, trying to figure what part of the shield would be easiest to break through.
"THAT'S ENOUGH!" Emerald roared. Her voice bounced off the castle walls, echoing all around the group. In the distance, a small piece of stone broke off from the top of the castle and landed with a loud thud. "I will not tolerate anyone disrespecting me in such a manner, especially when it comes from brats like you!" she began to chant real fast in a hushed tone, lowering her head, she pressed both of her hands together in front of her chest. With a huge grin, she bowed before them and disappeared, leaving nothing but green dust where she had once stood not but a second ago.
"Where'd she go?" Neptune asked.
"I don't know, but the force field is gone!" Mercury informed. She glanced at her computer a third time to check if she had been seeing things. Clearly, she wasn't.
"Lets go" Tuxedo Mask growled.
"Tsk tsk tsk. Not so fast lil man! It's rude to enter without permission. What kind of hero's are you?" Catzi suddenly appeared in front of them. She smiled sweetly at them, before pushing her long purple hair behind her neck.
Tuxedo Mask growled once more. This was all getting really irritating. One annoying woman left, just so another can take her place! At this rate, they weren't even going to get near the stupid castle let alone rescue Usagi. He looked around him quickly, to get a good look.
Catzi gave a wide, brilliant smile at Tuxedo Mark. "You won't be going anywhere". She quickly crouched down in a fighting stance, but spread her arms out, bring one arm right in front of her with her hand wide open. Her long delicate finger moved in sync, motioning him to get closer, he didn't. Instead, Sailor Mars stepped forward.
"Oh! You want to go at one at a time? You're choice. It would have been easier for you to attack me all at once, but if that's the way you want it…so be it. Let me just call up my friends, too." she said eagerly. She closed her eyes, and in an instant three more women stood beside her. To the far side, stood Catzi, staring intently at Sailor Mar, who in turn was glaring. Beside Catzi, was this white haired, blue eyed woman that resembled Ami a little. She gave a small bow before standing straight up. A woman dressed in yellow, and orange held a compact to her face, applying lipstick to her already colorful lips. She made no acknowledgement that they were there. The last woman, held an air of haughtiness as she looked at the Sailor Senshi. She crossed her arms and grinned.
"Bertie, Avery, Prisma, Catzi…it's your time to shine! Capture them alive, but hurt them all you wish." a man stepped out from the shadows, his piercing red hair flapping with the wind. He gazed maliciously, and hungrily at Tuxedo Mask. It was time….
"As you wish, Rubius" Prisma responded.
"Shall we?" Bertie asked in excitement. Everyone got into their own preferred fighting stance and glared at one of the other party.
Bertie smiled sweetly at Mercury.
Venus stared at intently Avery.
Prisma glared at Jupiter.
Catzi winked at a sneering Mars.
Tuxedo Mask growled at Rubius, only getting a chuckle in response.
With their targets identified, they charged, praying to the Gods that their power would be enough to save Usagi. Never had they attacked an enemy without Usagi, never had they prevailed without Usagi. Usagi was their power, and now that she was taken away, they didn't know if they had a chance to win…but if it so happens at the Gods chose this day to be their last…they would die fighting…with honor.
-------------------------------------------
A/N: The End!
OMG, this would have been a good place to end it!….but I decided to give you more, since I have taken this long to update. Hope you enjoy!
Okay, from this point, I'll be going into single fights. If I focused on all of it, it would be extremely chaotic, and confusing to both you and me. Also, the characters will be a lil OOC, because they would most likely send their Droids to 'beat' them up, but they won't here!
-------------------------------------------
Bertie swiftly ran up to Mercury, but then stopped just as sudden. Her eyes raked over Mercury's appearance, taking her in, as if studying her. Mercury noticed this, and also stopped, sizing her opponent. As soon as Mercury look away for a quick second, Bertie began to run once more, silently.
Mercury turned to look at Bertie, again, but was thrown back when a solid punch landed on her jaw.
"Never take your eyes off your opponent! We just started and already you're making mistakes. Shame on you" Bertie taunted with a surprisingly sweet voice.
Mercury glared at her, then promptly stood straight up with her head held ever higher. She could feel her jaw throbbing painfully, and how it started to swell rapidly. All her instincts told her to hold her jaw, that maybe it would stop the pain, but she wouldn't show weakness…not now.
"Why don't you just give up? Surrender to us, and we'll let you live. Forget about saving Serenity. She's not worth it. Save yourself!" Bertie said in a pleading voice, which absolutely scared Mercury. Why the hell was she pleading her to join them? Could it be possible that she felt guilt and would rather avoid fighting her?
"Don't you dare utter our Princess' name out of your tainted mouth." Mercury balled her fists and launched herself at Bertie.
Bertie quickly crouched down, and aimed to punch, but Mercury beat her to it. Her arm extended, making firm contact with Berties' firm stomach. Her assault did not stop there. Mercury quickly retracted her hand and aimed again.
In desperation, Bertie placed her hand on Mercurys' stomach and shot out dark liquid sending Mercury 20 feet from where Bertie stood. Before Mercury could stand up, Bertie was above her, straddling her waist, gifting her with punches and such a merciless beating, that after she was done, left an unconscious maiden lying on the floor.
Bertie smiled sadly, "I gave you chance…now you have to die". She snapped her fingers, and both she and Mercury vanished.
This is only the first fight scene. The next chapter will consist of Mars, Jupiter, Venus, and Neptune. So don't worry…it hasn't ended here. I wanted to make this chapter a little bit shorter so that I can arrange the other fights better (if that even makes sense to you…it does in my head). I wont take as long with the other chapter, it'll be up soon. Thank you so much for staying with me!
You guys rock!
