Zachycards: Hello everyone, and welcome to the next new chapter of Of Going In Completely Blind. So anyway here is the disclaimer. I don't own any of the mentioned anime characters or items in this fanfic besides Angel Bluebell, the Sword of Bluebell, and myself. I also do not own Wedding Peach, it will always belong to Nao Yazawa. I also do not own Sailor Moon, it will always belong to Naoko Takeuchi. So now that the disclaimer has been said, it is now time to move on to the 4th chapter.
Chapter 4: A Test Of True Friendship! Bridal Dress Change!
It had been a long week since me and Momoko's first encounter and battle with Pluie and Jama-p. Yea, you would think that something involving devils would happen at some point in the rest of the week that had gone past. And yet, an entire week had now gone by. Without any sort of incident taking place I might add. I guess unlike what I had heard regarding events on the show, from various chat room sites. Apparently time in the actual world of the anime, moved a lot more realistically then it would have if you had been watching one episode of the anime after the other. "Bluebell here. So in other words viewers, what was shown in the anime, with events looking as though they had transpired one day after the other. I can now tell you all, since I am in fact experiencing it for myself, that that is simply not the case. No seriously, an entire week has now passed since I have arrived in this world, and yet, nothing regarding any battles with Pluie or Jama-P has happened...I know, weird right? Anyway, back to the story."
Anyway, earlier in the week, after Momoko had brought me back to her home and had introduced me to her father and such. It was then discussed upon the sleeping arrangements. And although I had quit a few reserves about it. For reasons known only to Momoko, she suggested that I sleep in her room, which not surprisingly was met with a lot of skepticism from her father and I. And yet I kind of figured that she was only doing this since I was currently the only ally she could trust, besides her friends Yuri and Hinagiku. "Not to mention that I had helped her tremendously in our first fight against Pluie and Jama-P...Still I do find being in the same room as her, to be quite intimidating...well...I had best get used to that being the case, because the last thing I want is to wind up dropping my standards, and not pull my weight in battle," I thought to myself, as I sighed. And It was after some convincing to her father, that he finally agreed. And with that, Momoko and I then went off to get ready for bed.
The next morning, after I had woken up, I heard some murmuring from Momoko, who was still asleep in her bed. "So she talks in her sleep...wait, did she just mention Kazuya Yanagiba? I guess that would be her love interest for the series...and yet, I sort of want to tell her the truth about him being Limone..." I thought to myself.
But it was then, that I put both hands to my head. "No, I can't do that, I have that promise that I made to him...well...I guess she will just have to figure it out on her own...which to be honest...I think that's for the best..." I thought to myself, as I removed both hands from my head, and my expression changed to that of understanding.
However, after I had done so, Momoko suddenly sprang up, now awake, and with a scared looking expression on her face.
"Momoko, what's wrong?" I asked.
"Oh nothing, it was just a bad dream," Momoko said in response.
"Okay, just remember that if there is anything you would like to talk about, I am here for you," I said.
"And yet, deep down I am well aware that she didn't just have a 'bad dream.' So that is what Raindevila looks like in person, you know, I realize now just how tall she is in person compared to someone like Pluie...okay...well she is going to turn out to be quite the adversary...not to mention on what I know about her, that she is quite the formidable one. And we had best be at the ready for when she does wind up coming after us...no...stop jumping ahead...I need to keep the timeline intact...I can't just go jumping ahead in the timeline like that...And yet, I guess that was what was called a prophetic dream of sorts...well...that's not frightening or anything...seeing as how I have absolutely no idea when something like that is going to happen to me in my sleep...man, talk about a real nightmare on elm street..." I thought to myself, with a scared expression present on my face.
And it was at that moment, after I had finished my thought, that the living room phone rang, and Momoko went off to answer it. It was about a 30 seconds later, that I heard Momoko yell, and run back into her room at a great speed. "Okay...so that was unexpected..." I thought to myself. She then told me that we were both almost an hour late for school and that we had both better get dressed into our school uniforms and get their as fast as we possibly could.
"Great, so we both overslept...wait...why do I feel like she isn't the only one who has done something like this...and why do I get the feeling that it has to do with someone else that I know a bit about...and a well known magical girl at that...well...she does have quite the sterling reputation...not to mention...okay...I need to think about this at a later date, because I have to try and see if we can salvage being an hour late to school...oh who am I kidding...I'm not Casey Jones! Still, we have to at least try..." I thought to myself, as my expression showed one of slight displeasure.
So anyway, after Momoko had gotten dressed into her respective school uniform, I then proceeded to put my uniform on. And if I must be honest, I had never worn a school uniform, I went to a school back in my world that didn't have that as being mandatory. Still, at least it was comfortable to wear.
Anyway we then took off out of the house, and off for school at a very fast running pace.
While along the way, we picked up lunch at a nearby mart, and Momoko for some reason, picked up a ruby red ring from one of the racks.
"That's strange, doesn't she have a ring like that already?…now that I think about it...Jama-P did mention something about a ruby red ring when he was possessing Yuri and Hinagiku a week ago...and yet, I get a strange feeling, every time I look at that ring of hers...like it is going to wind up being important later on..." I thought to myself.
Anyway, it was a short time later, after a good amount of running, that Momoko and I finally made it into the school gates, with our respective lunches in hand.
But, when we both passed by Yuri and Hinagiku, who were hiding behind a tree each, we decided to stop running and see what it is that they were up to.
"Hey you guys, why are you two hiding?" Momoko asked.
"And why do I get the feeling that it has something to do with a guy?" I thought to myself.
It was at that point that both Yuri and Hinagiku turned towards both me and Momoko with panicked looks on both of their faces. "What is going on here?" Momoko asked Yuri and Hinagiku. "Nothing?" Hinagiku responded, with a suspicious tone in her voice, indicating that she was most likely lying about it being nothing. "What in the world are you referring to?" Yuri said, with the same amount of suspicion in her tone. "Okay...so this is how things are going to go for the foreseeable future I guess? Again...why am I thinking about that girl? Stop thinking about that...you have a job to do here..." I thought to myself, as I internally chastised myself for thinking about that magical girl again.
A short time after that, Yousuke Fuuma stepped in, saying that he wasn't going to allow them to give their food to Kazuya for fear that it would give him a stomach ache. However, that did not stop Yousuke from confiscating all 3 of their lunches and saying that they would be used to feed the team instead.
"Ah, so this is Yousuke Fuuma...hard to imagine that someone like him is actually a devil...and yet, given what I know about him...he might wind up actually being quite useful in a future fight...I need to make a mental note about that for later...oh good...I see that he likes to tease Momoko...and she just got angry at him...wonderful...add that as something that is going to happen a lot, that I now have to get used to seeing...wait, why am I thinking about that girl again...? And why does she and someone else I know about wind up getting into petty quarrels like this all the time...? Okay...let me just push that to the side...because that isn't a priority right now..." I thought to myself, as I continued to look on at the petty argument taking place between Momoko and Yousuke.
Well it had really been one of those days. Momoko, Yuri, Hinagiku and I had gone to watch Kazuya Yanagiba and the soccer team play. However, Momoko had caught sight of Yousuke Fuuma eating her lunch, and then decided to take it upon herself to venture out onto the field to get it back from him.
However, she was then hit by a soccer ball, and then had to be taken to the nurse's office by Yousuke, Yuri and I. And it was after a bit of high jinks and whatnot that Momoko, Yuri, Hinagiku and I ended up walking our way back to our classroom. But, when Hinagiku opened the door and looked inside, she noticed that everyone in the room had been knocked out.
"What the heck happened here?" Hinagiku asked as she looked upon the classroom of lifeless students.
And as the four of us ran in and looked around the room, a thought then crossed my mind. "Okay...I'm getting a bad feeling here..." I thought to myself, as I then became quite on edge.
And sure enough, as if on cue, a black ball suddenly materialized in a part of the room, and an all too familiar creature materialized itself. "Jama Jama," it said. "Oh great, Jama-P is here...well that would explain the bad feeling I just had...so if he's here, then Pluie can't be that far from here..." I thought to myself, with a very determined look on my face, as I furrowed my brow.
"Where's the ruby ring little girl?" Jama-P said, as he looked at Momoko and then at me. "Okay, so he must obviously sense something from me...otherwise why would he be looking at me like that if that wasn't the case..." I thought to myself, as my face displayed a look of slight dismay.
And it was after an exchange of words, and Momoko's refusal to hand over the ring to Jama-P, that a bolt of black lightning appeared and removed the ring from Momoko's finger. "And there's Pluie making his presence known...it would be quite convenient if both Momoko and I could transform right now...but seeing as how Yuri and Hinagiku haven't awakened as Angel Lily and Angel Daisy yet...I really can't do anything in this situation...except standby for the time being...this is quite frustrating..." I thought to myself, as I placed a few fingers on one of my temples, in a bit to quell my frustration.
It was then that the ring wound up in the grasp of Pluie. "You're that devil Pluie!" Momoko said. "Well I guess it's just going to be one of those days..." I thought to myself, as I sighed.
"Finally a piece of the Saint Something Four is in my grasp, Jama-P, I leave these four in your hands," Pluie said, as he disappeared in a wisp of black energy. It was then that Hinagiku decided to ask Momoko and I if we knew of either Jama-P or Pluie. And this was then followed by Jama-p releasing a shockwave, that blasted all four of us out of the classroom and into the wall in the hallway, which knocked Yuri and Hinagiku out cold.
"Okay that seriously hurt...well...so much for the feeling no pain benefit...I guess that only applies when I am transformed..." I thought to myself, as I then proceeded to rise to my feet, with a slight bit of difficulty. But, it was when both Momoko and I got to our feet, that Momoko decided to consult Aphrodite on how to proceed. This then followed with Momoko pulling out her Saint Miroir. And to give you a perspective on what it looks like. I have to tell you, that the anime really didn't do its beauty enough justice. But, after Momoko had consulted with Aphrodite, it was decided that we would both fight.
And with that having been decided, I then reached into my pocket and pulled out my Sword Of Bluebell, as she then readied her Saint Miroir.
"Beautiful Wedding Flower!" Momoko said. As a light enveloped her, and instantly changed her into her wedding dress. "So that is what it actually looks like when she transforms...a quick flash of light...and she's in her wedding dress form...so that would mean that the transformation clips that I saw of her were not entirely accurate...anyway, let me stop thinking about that...sine I might as well transform..." I thought to myself, as I then raised my Sword Of Bluebell above my head with my left hand.
"Elegant Wedding Flower!" I said, and in a quick flash of light, I was in my armor clad battle outfit, and was Angel Bluebell once again.
"Okay...that is actually a much more convenient transformation that I can easily get used too...I guess my transformation is shortened, unlike how the transformations of the other Love Angels were in the clips I watched, with them being lengthy...still...I am still going to need to work on my battling skills. Because I am sure that will always need improvement," I thought to myself, as I then turned my attention to Wedding Peach, and gave her a quick nod, indicating to Wedding Peach that I was ready.
And after she had nodded back to me, we then ran outside, and took off towards the roof of the school, for the battle that lay ahead for the both of us against Pluie and Jama-P.
After we had both witnessed Pluie crush the ring to pieces in his hand.
Wedding Peach then picked that moment to speak up.
"Destruction of private property, naughty naughty," she said.
"Well, that was quite spontaneous of her to say that...I might as well say something myself...seeing as how from what I have managed to look up on the internet regarding the Love Angels, and there battles against the devils...it's all about the introduction...as well as saying quippy lines..." I thought to myself, as I then mustered the courage to speak up.
"I will not allow devils to destroy other people's personal possessions!" I said.
It was then that Pluie turned his attention towards the both of us, to see the both of us standing side by side.
It was as the sound of chiming bells suddenly filled the air, that Wedding Peach started to say an introduction. "Springtime is like the dawn of a new day, the pale crimson cherry blossoms fall, and you can't tell if it's a cloud or a morning mist. I can't forgive you for forcing all of my school friends into never ending sleep! I am the Love Angel! I am Wedding Peach! And I am extremely angry with you!" She said, as she struck a pose.
"Well, that would be her introduction done...and I have to say, she can deliver it quite well...the only question is...how is my introduction going to manage to be able to follow that? Wait, I think I have one in mind..." I thought to myself, as I then took a similar stance to Wedding Peach's. Only, I did it with my Sword Of Bluebell pointed straight up with my left hand, as I then began my introduction. "The nature of the bluebell, is to spread joy and love, allowing friendships to remain strong!" I said, as I swung my Sword Of Bluebell up towards and over my right armor clad shoulder, and then down in a diagonal swing, and struck a pose.
However, It was then that Lord Pluie summoned his sword of darkness out of nothing. "Be quiet!" Pluie said with a bit of anger in his tone, as he then proceeded to advance on us. He then took a swing at Wedding Peach, which cut into her wedding dress. To which he then tried to take a swing at me, that I then managed to block quite easily with my Sword Of Bluebell, and even though there was a lot of weight behind his swing, my Sword Of Bluebell held. "Okay, at least my sword is able to take the punishment...still...that swing of his has quite a bit of weight behind it...and yet, I don't feel any sort of reverberation from it...I guess I must have quite a high amount of durability in this form as a love angel...let me just make a mental note of that for later battles..." I thought to myself.
"I am going to slice that pretty dress of yours into ribbons," Pluie then said as he then proceeded to go after Wedding Peach again.
"Okay Pluie seriously!? Now that I know that devils like him don't fight fair...I might as well try and protect Wedding Peach from his advance..." I thought to myself, as I then decided to speak up.
"I won't let you hurt her!" I said, as I then attempted to charge at Pluie, while his attention was focused on Wedding Peach. But before I could do so, an all too familiar light lit up the sky, and a line of crystal steps descended down.
"Just in the nick of time Limone, I was wondering when you were going to show up," I thought to myself, as I then breathed a sigh of relief.
It was after Limone wound up telling Wedding Peach to transform and become the fighting angel that I knew exactly what he meant. "Oh yeah, that's right...her battle outfit...I forgot about that...and from what I can remember about what it looks like...it is actually quite similar to my own...I mean...mine has a few adjustments compared to hers...but I digress," I thought to myself, as Wedding Peach then proceeded to transform into her battle outfit.
"Bridal Change Wedding Dress Transform! Angel Amour Peach!" Wedding Peach said. And with a quick flash of light, she was in her battle outfit. "Yeah, I am still not used to the transformation being that quick..." I thought to myself, as I then sighed.
But after Wedding Peach had transformed into her battle outfit. Jama-P then decided to go on the attack. "Die fighting angels!" Jama-P said, as he then started to attack the both of us.
Thankfully though, it was then that Limone's decided to speak up.
"Use the Saint Miroir, fire the love wave!" he said.
"Well, I guess that's my queue to have both Wedding Peach and me wrap this battle up," I thought to myself, as I then turned my attention to Wedding Peach, and then spoke up. "Wedding Peach, I think it's about time we wrap this battle up don't you think?" I said in a confident sounding tone of voice.
"Agreed Bluebell, time to put an end to this," Wedding Peach said, as she then nodded to me. And once I had nodded back, we then took ready stances, and once I had drawn my Sword Of Bluebell back towards and over my right armor clad shoulder, we then fired our respective attacks.
"Saint Miroir...Bridal Flash!" Wedding Peach said. As she then did a complete spin, and then, once the heart on her Saint Miroir glowed red, she then launched her attack from it towards Jama-P.
"Saint Sword Of Bluebell...Devil...Purification!" I said, as I swung my Sword Of Bluebell forward in left horizontal swing in front of me, and fired my usual purification attack from my Sword Of Bluebell's blade. Which I then noticed had been glowing a bright blue color.
But anyway, when both of our attacks hit Jama-P at the same time, he was once again overwhelmed.
It was then, that Pluie once again scolded Jama-P, while calling him a loser. "I'm sorry Lord Pluie," Jama-P said in response in a frightened tone. "If the ring isn't part of the Saint Something Four, then there is no reason for us to be here," Pluie said, as he then fled with Jama-P back to the Devil World.
It was after Pluie and Jama-P had fled that Limone checked on the both of us. "I sure showed him," Wedding Peach said. This was then followed Limone giving an intrigued expression. "That ring he had was just a piece of junk jewelry," Wedding Peach said, as she held up the real ring in her right hand.
"Well, I guess that explains why she bought that junk jewelry ring from the mart when we were buying our lunches...she sure knows how to think ahead..." I thought to myself, as a small smile then found its way onto my face.
Later on, in the school's courtyard, after we had both powered down. Momoko and I were leaning against a tree as Momoko was busy inspecting her ring.
"What is this ring? Why does this man want it? And what the heck is Saint Something Four?" Momoko asked to no one in particular.
I then decided to speak up, in an effort to try and put her mind at ease.
"You've got me Momoko, but just remember that whatever we may face in the future, I will be there fighting it right beside you," I said in an effort to said her mind at ease.
"Thanks, I knew I could count on you," Momoko said to me with a reassuring expression.
"You're quite welcome Momoko," I said in response.
"Still, I find her to be quite intimidating when she is Wedding Peach...well...I am sure that as we fight more battles, that will hopefully no longer become an issue. Still, let's just hope our friendship, is enough to last through the rest of the series...because I am still not entirely sure why am I still thinking that there is more to this then there being fifty-five episodes in total..." I thought to myself, as I let out a big sigh.
End Of Chapter 4
