Chapter 40: Red, Orange and Pantyhose
Sailor Venus and Sailor Cosmos Moon stared at their enemy. There was a silence among them.
"Aren't we going to fight?" asked Sailor Venus.
"No… not yet…" answered Princess Prism.
"What! Why aren't we fighting!" yelled Sailor Venus.
"You're still new with this whole final battle, fighting the big bad thing are you?" asked Princess Prism.
Not sense Amethyst." Said Sailor Venus.
"I'm not counting Amethyst." Said Princess Prism.
Sailor Venus scoffed at this.
Meanwhile in the strange red room.
"All right let's get this started." Said Rouge.
Rouge sent out a red beam, which Sailor Vesta and Hyde dodged.
"That's not going to work." Said Rouge with an evil smirk.
She began to fire a beam at them, which they continued to doge.
"What are we going to do?" asked Sailor Vesta.
That's when the beam hit both of them sending them flying into a wall.
"You really think you can win?" asked Rouge walking to them creating a sword of red energy.
That's when Sailor Vesta remembered the charm that Doll gave.
"Hyde stand back, I'm going to use the charm." Said Sailor Vesta.
Sailor Vesta took out the charm, and put all of her Senshi powers into it. IT began to glow red and changed shape and size… it became a katana with a red hilt.
"A katana? You don't know how to use a katana!" laughed Rouge.
That's when Sailor Vesta trusted the katana at her, she barely dodged, in fact a few strands of hair were cut off.
"That's impossible! How did you learn how to do that!" yelled Rouge in shock.
"I've been training in secret to learn how to use a sword, so I won't be the worthless member of the team." Said Sailor Vesta.
"Useless." Corrected Hyde.
Sailor Vesta sighed and sweat dropped at that comment but turned back to her opponent.
"I can't believe that you learned how to do that! No matter I will still win!" said Rouge with an evil laugh.
"You won't!" yelled Sailor Vesta.
The two began to duel with swords.
"I need to win! No matter what!" thought Sailor Vesta.
Sailor Vesta began to overtake Rouge.
"I can't let him win! I can't lose to this loser!" thought Rouge.
Red energy came from both of them… it began swirl around.
"I will win!" shouted Sailor Vesta.
That's Sailor Vesta slice through her opponent…
"Well you won… good job…" said Rouge turning into a red light where she was cut.
Hyde smirked at his book keeper.
"You got stronger." Said Hyde.
"I guess I did." Said Sailor Vesta.
And the two of them were teleported of the strange red room.
Elsewhere in a strange orange room, Sailor Ceres and Pumpkin met.
"So I'm fighting you… I guess that's all right." Said Pumpkin.
Sailor Ceres ran towards with a punch to find she was gone.
There was a childish giggle in the air "I may be the childish member but I have quite a few tricks up my sleeve." Said Pumpkin she then reappeared "I'm a master of hide and seek."
"Isn't that childish?" asked Sailor Ceres.
"If you say so." Said Pumpkin.
That's when Pumpkin once again disappeared.
"Where is she?" thought Sailor Ceres.
She then sensed something.
"Bakusai Tenketsu!" shouted Sailor Ceres jabbing her finger into the ground.
The ground shattered revealing her location and hitting her with rocks.
"You're not bad! But I'm better!" said Pumpkin disappearing once again.
Sailor Ceres tried to sense her once again… but couldn't.
"You know it's useless… your going to loose. All of your friends are going to lose and die…" said Pumpkin, "Except for Mars, Jupiter, Neptune, Uranus and Neo Moon." She added very quickly so that Sailor Ceres couldn't understand her.
"What was that last part?" asked Sailor Ceres with a sweat drop.
"I said you're a flower wielding pink girl! You can't hope to beat me… I'm more powerful, I'm more stealthy and I'm sure all your friends are dead… especially Ranma."
"What?" asked Sailor Ceres.
"It's a shame… that you can never beat him… I'm sure he died a painful death." Said Pumpkin who began to sing childishly, "You'll never beat him you'll beat never beat him…"
That's when Sailor Ceres slumped a little.
"So it looks like I won." Said Pumpkin appearing holding a small orange dagger.
"Perfect Shishi Hokodan!" shouted Sailor Ceres.
"What?" said Pumpkin.
The blue green light came from Sailor Ceres then descended back down, crushing Pumpkin severely.
"Well you won…" said Pumpkin, "I guess I forgot about the whole, mocking you would hurt me… I honestly said that certain friends will live but you couldn't understand me… I'm sure Ranma's going to live… I'm sorry I said that."
She began to cough up blood.
"Good bye." She said as she vanished.
Sailor Ceres took a breath as she disappeared from the room.
Elsewhere, in a just a smile room with several buckets and teakettles.
"Well I guess they gave a way to change back and forth." Said Sailor Jupiter looking at the teakettles and buckets as well as several spare changes of clothes.
"So are we going to talk or what?" asked Taro.
"Okay, we give you the pervert and you give up." Said Sailor Jupiter.
"Fair enough." Said Taro, "But first we must fight."
"That was going to be my suggestion as well." Said Sailor Jupiter.
Sailor Jupiter ran toward Taro with a punch but Taro dodged, then Sailor Jupiter kicked him in the gut.
"Maybe I should get serious." Said Taro grabbing a bucket of cold water and splashing himself turning into his monster form.
Sailor Jupiter smirked.
"Do you mind me using my Senshi attacks?" asked Sailor Jupiter.
Taro nodded…
"Is it because you're still wet?" asked Sailor Jupiter who knew that lighting plus water equals bad.
The two continued to fight, for quite a while both sides, until Taro stopped. He grabbed a teakettle and turned himself back human.
"So I take it your done?" asked Sailor Jupiter who had much more fight left in her.
"Just hold on a minute!" shouted Pantyhose Taro, "Don't call me that!"
Sorry… that slipped out.
He got dressed… the two stood across from each other.
"I want to become good." Said Taro.
"What?" asked Sailor Jupiter.
That's when the two of them disappeared from the room.
In the room they entered, the people who had just fought once again appeared in the room.
"So looks like we all won at the same time." Said Sailor Vesta.
"It looks like Ryoga resorted to that attack." Said Sailor Jupiter looking at Sailor Ceres who looked a little depressed.
"Hey… where did you get that sword." Said Taro noticing Sailor Vesta's sword.
"Well you see… Doll has been secretly teaching me how to sword fight for a while and she got this for me…" said Sailor Vesta nervously, "I also kill my opponent with it."
This alerted Sailor Ceres who was no longer depressed.
"You killed your opponent." Said Sailor Ceres.
"Yeah…" said Sailor Vesta.
"With sword skills." Said Sailor Jupiter.
"Yeah…" said Sailor Vesta with a really big sweat drop.
"Aren't you supposed to be the useless pervert." Said Taro.
"Don't call me that!" yelled Sailor Vesta.
The three of them stared at Sailor Vesta with dot eyes.
"I think you broke them." Said Hyde.
"It looks like it." Said Sailor Vesta with a big sweat drop.
Elsewhere in a yellow room, Sailor Pluto stood across from Goldie.
"So it looks like I'll be facing you… well beggars can't be choosers." Said Goldie with a shrug.
Sailor Pluto looked at her opened. The two ran towards each other ready for a fight.
Next Time: Sailor Pluto faces off against Goldie, but there seems to be something wrong. While Sailor Juno faces off against Olive who can also wield a sword very well. Also Sailor Mars fights Kuro once and for all... but why does it seem like Kuro has something planned... and how does it extend to Orochimaru, Zeno and Violet? Find out next time!
