When they rematerialize Serena curses, " I knew I should have asked you whom you accepted that call for help from, Kayura. " Serena mutters, she was not happy with this development in the least.
Artemis runs off to make his report to Mau and Serena starts walking, heading straight for the Hikawa Shrine. Ryo caught up with her instantly, " So, this is…? "
" Yeah, it is. I will have to fight, as my girls could never get any of the bosses beat without me, in fact they normally died and left me to fight the battles and then I had to bring them back, it was quite annoying actually. " Serena mutters in response, grateful that her change in looks had remained. It wouldn't do for the blonde Serena Tsukino to just reappear.
Kayura and the others had caught up by this time, " You don't even know where to go. "
" Hikawa Shrine, right? " Serena asks.
" Yes, but how did you know that? "
" I'll answer that question later, Kayura, right now we need to get to the shrine and then to wherever the hell we're going to stay. " Serena says.
" Sailor Pluto offered to let us stay with her and the Outers, she called them, I think. " Kayura answers.
Rowen curses internally at this, no wonder Serena wasn't happy. She now had to deal with the traitors that had nearly killed her and her brother. Sage had garnered that much from what was said and unsaid as well. Ryo had his arm around Serena's shoulders by this point and she was leaning into him. She knew if any one of them suspected who she was then the instant the guys were no longer needed they would try and kill her. White Blaze had been given the power of invisibility by her for those times he had to be in a city and was currently using it to follow them, and he was also avoiding walking into people.
Serena leads them unerringly to the shrine and up the stairs though she was cursing under her breath the whole way. Thanks to her training with Ryo it no longer winded her, but she still hated climbing all the damn things. No one would like climbing all these stairs all the damn time. Ryo would have suggested a new meeting point after a week of climbing the damn stairs.
Then she heads straight for the meeting room but motions for everyone else to go in first, with her on Ryo's arm last. Artemis would be staying out of sight this entire trip until the time was right to deal with the traitors, " Who's she, Kayura? " Sailor Pluto demands, they were all transformed.
" My leader's girlfriend. You don't tell him no, he said she had to come. " Kayura answers.
Sailor Mercury blinks as her Data Computer tells her exactly who the girl was, " Actually, Pluto, you already know her. "
Rowen moved before anyone could blink and has a dagger at Sailor Mercury's throat and hisses instructions to her in royal Mercurian. Her eyes widen and she nods, " Sorry, I was mistaken, it will never happen again. "
Pluto looks like she is going to question this when Rowen looks at her and she shudders, deciding it was better for her health if she dropped the issue entirely. She hadn't known there were any reincarnated Mercurians in the dimension she had asked for help from. Whatever he had said to Mercury had caused her to recant fast. Mars looks like she's about to speak up when the blue haired boy shoots her a glare that would freeze the sun. Mars wilts in her position and Pluto calls the meeting to order. The girl sitting on Wildfire's lap, and for all appearances looking like she was taking a nap.
The blue haired one, Strata, had taken a seat right next to them, and between them and the door. The tiger, must be the one Kayura had mentioned, also between them and the door. The others had ranged themselves around them like a honor guard. Apparently they loved and respected their leader very much, he must have been worthy of the position, unlike her useless hime. The tiger sends a warning look at her and Pluto promptly reorders her thoughts. Apparently the tiger was Wildfire's guardian, and very sensitive to anything or anyone that could be construed as a threat to him.
Pluto explains what had been going on and when they had noticed the dimensional breach. Serena, curled up in Ryo's arms, enveloped in the warmth of his armor, smirks, none of them had ever realized that her naps were actually designed so she could spy on them with none of them the wiser. Not even the wise Sailor Pluto had caught onto that. She was hearing the thoughts of her senshi and would be sharing this with Ryo once they were alone, though she would have to tell all of the others the truth now. Sage knew, but the other six didn't and they needed to if she was to be protected properly. Saturn was also filling her in on everything that had happened since she had left.
If any of them ever knew how truly smart she was they would all pass out and realize that she had been playing them all for fools all along, and was no longer going to take any of their shit. This was something that she and Ryo always did, as she would pick up on what he missed. The bitches wouldn't know what hit them when she finally struck at them. Looked like it was time whether she wanted it to be or not. She knew she would have Ryo at her side and Rowen at her back.
" Haven't you been able to finish off any of them yourselves? " Cye asks them.
" No, we lost our leader in a surprise youma attack, she would have been able to defeat them, but not us. She had no one who could take over for her. " Uranus states.
Saturn's eyes turn purple at this, " No more will I tolerate these lies. You all attacked our hime and killed her. I should destroy you all now as you're not needed to win, these nine are more than capable of dealing with this threat. "
Serena sighs at this, apparently Hotaru had, had enough, " True enough, that Serena did die and now a new one has taken her place, " she says as she stands up, her green eyes hard, " One that will not think twice about killing you traitorous bitches where you stand. You could have killed my little brother. Artemis is reporting Luna to Mau right now for trying to kill her kittens. "
Saturn stands directly in front of her, the message clear, mess with my hime and I will kill you all, " So, you escaped to a different dimension, big deal, Meatball Head. " Mars snaps.
Serena's eyes flash, " Moon Crystal Power! "
The familiar transformation floods her body and upon finishing she has her scepter in hand and pointed right at Mars, " I have had enough of your shit, Mars, all you ever do is bitch. I don't know how the others have stood you for this long. I could never stand your incessant bitching. "
Cye and Kento blink when they see Serena turn into Sailor Moon, " You know, Kento, this actually explains quite a bit. " Cye remarks.
" No kidding, man. No wonder Serena is able to do what she does and the power she has over Strata, this probably explains that somehow too. " Kento says.
Rowen groans, of all the times for Kento to actually have an intelligent thought, it had to be now. Rowen was on Mercury in a heartbeat, her throat slit in seconds and he takes in the Mercury power. " I don't care what the rest of you do, but Mars is mine. The powers of the defeated Senshi will go to the one whom is most compatible with it. " Sailor Moon says and attacks the Martian Senshi head on. Ryo summons his armor and draws his katanas, his tiger blue eyes narrowing in determination.
" Show yourself, Endymion, I challenge you for the Terran throne and the hand of the Lunar princess. " Ryo snaps out.
