The Professor was in the middle of filling up a syringe, when General Vladimir entered the room. "Ah, Professor. I was just going to tell you that the strike force is ready to set out. Have you made any progress with the Daimon extract?"

"Not yet.", the Professor replied. "I was just preparing to test it on my test subject here." He flicked on a light, revealing Sailor Moon strapped to a surgeon's table. "I would've tested it on one of our guards, but I wasn't sure if the results would destabilise their genetic structure. But this girl's locket emanates some form of energy that restores any injury incurred."

"Does that go up to death?", Vladimir asked, curious.

"I see what you're implying.", the Professor answered him. "And unfortunately, the power cannot be wielded by one who is not pure of heart." He then attached some metallic implants to Sailor Moon's arms and shoulders. "But that doesn't mean we can't bring someone pure of heart over to our side to use the power."

With a ghoulish grin on his face, the Professor pressed a switch that pumped the Daimon extract into the implants, before merging a boxing glove onto the right hand, a metal table onto the right shoulder, a small toy cannon onto the left shoulder and a pressed flower onto the left hand. "This technology will transform a human being into a Daimon, without suffering from the instabilities of Dr. Tomoe's early experiments that Sailors Uranus and Neptune cleaned up." Sailor Moon began to convulse, screaming in pain, as a large laser emerged from her left shoulder, her hand became a flower-themed shield, with the stem as a sword. On her right arm, she grew a sword sticking out of her shoulder, and a metal fist transformed from her right hand. Her skin then turned bright pink, as her body contorted into a larger more muscular frame, het Sailor uniform tearing around the midriff and boots, with what remained of her clothes being covered by armour resembling a cross between a championship belt and traditional knight armour. The girl's left eye then turned red and began to bulge out, as her hair turned green and grew thorns, becoming vines that wrapped around the rest of her face, completing the transformation. "U-Togenshi, at your service."

"Excellent work, Doctor.", Vladimir smiled. "Dan Kuso will take her out as she takes him out. Thereby eliminating all of our problems in a fell swoop."

"Yes.", U-Togenshi laughed.

Elsewhere, Princess Fabia and her new friends had ended up in a dark void. There were no stars or moons in the sky, which was a deathly purple. The ground was made of a sort of blue rock, extending for miles. After looking around, Fabia turned back towards her retinue, only to be shocked by what she saw.

"You're all glowing.", Fabia stated with shock. "And not the same colour either."

"You're hardly one to make judgments on appearance.", the brown-glowing one said in reply. "You just turned from a normal human being into a pink-skinned, bug-eyed monster."

Taking the hint, Fabia turned back into her humanoid appearance. "I only take this form for the benefit of my friends from Dan's Earth."

"Is Dane your boyfriend?", the one glowing light blue asked.

"Daniel," Fabia corrected "and no. He's just someone who I asked to help save my people from invasion." Then she realised that she hadn't introduced herself. "My name's Fabia Sheen. I'm the princess of Neathia."

"We'd prefer not to use our real names around these losers.", the brown one responded. "You can call me Sailor Uranus and my friend here Sailor Neptune."

"Guys, can we focus?", shouted Sailor Mars, who was glowing a bright orange. "We need to know where that guy sent Min - I mean, Sailor Venus.", she said, correcting herself at the last part.

"Not to mention why he didn't send Dan or Sailor Moon with us to this place.", a green glowing Sailor Jupiter added.

Fabia decided to address Mars' enquiry first. "He probably sent her back to Neathia or Gundalia. She'll be perfectly safe, so long as my friends find her before my enemies." She then thought about Jupiter's inquiry. "As for why he didn't send Dan or Sailor Moon with us, I have no idea."

"Maybe they know how much of a useless crybaby she is and decided not to bother.", Uranus retorted.

"That's needlessly rude and you know it.", Jupiter snapped.

"No wait, that may be it.", a blue glowing Sailor Mercury responded. "Fabia said that the Gundalians were hypnotising kids into fighting for them. Maybe they left Dan behind because they brainwashed him into taking her out. And without us to help protect her, Dan would kill her for them."

"Well now it sounds like you're overreacting.", Uranus informed her. "If they could brainwash Dan into helping them, surely they would've done so back in your world."

"If they'd got him alone and separated him from the rest of us, yes.", Fabia pointed out. "Which is exactly the situation we were forced to leave him in."

"But that would still leave Dan to stop their plans.", Neptune pointed out. "There's no way he won't break free from the shock of committing murder."

"Unless they also hypnotised Sailor Moon into taking him out with her.", Mars realised.

"Leaving our Earth and Neathia free for the Gundalians and the Heart Snatchers to take over.", Mercury concluded. "And from there, all other worlds and their people will fall victim to the onslaught."

"Now that we've worked out what they have planned for our friends, we need to work out where we are are and what's happening to you girls.", Fabia pointed out.

"I think we can answer that." The group turned towards the source of the voice. It was a group of three young men. One was dressed in a brown jacket and had green hair, another had red hair and a white cloak and the last one had pink hair and a green cape. All of their clothes looked like they were barely held together, and all three had notable beards. It was the green haired one who spoke. "You're in the Doom Dimension, a dimension that serves as an afterlife or a prison for Bakugan. It's not connected to any particular universe, so your friends are being affected by the conflicting laws of physics."

"Thanks.", Mercury said nervously. "And you would be?"

"Forgive me for my rudeness.", the green-haired boy said. "I am Prince Hydron of Vestal. These two are my associates, Volt Luster and Lync Volan."

"If this is an afterlife for the Bakugan, then why is it so empty?", Fabia asked. "And how did the three of you end up here?"

It was Volt who replied. "A while back, the original Battle Brawlers were sent here by the legendary warrior Masquerade. In return for a chance to evolve their Bakugan, they asked the Six Legendary Soldiers to send them and every Bakugan in this dimension back to the Vestroia dimension."

Lync interrupted him. "As for how we ended up here, we had a disagreement with our King. But given his mental state after the alien with the Darkus Bakugan beat him, only someone truly stupid or insane would follow him. He had us sent here as punishment for our betrayal."

"Not me.", Hydron corrected him. "I realised that my father cared nothing for me at all, forcing me to help his schemes. During the Brawlers' final battle with him, I had my Bakugan Dryoid prevent his escape from the blast, while I decided to retreat to this place for my sins."

"Is there a way out of this dimension?", Mars asked. "We have to get back to Earth and help our friends."

"There may be one way.", Lync replied. "When the Brawlers had every Bakugan sent home with them, 9 were excluded by special order of something called "Dragonoid Colossus". One of them's been creating these creatures that can easily travel through the dimensional barriers. Perhaps he can have one of them take the 7 of you home."

"Wait a minute, "seven"?", Neptune asked, confused.

"Exactly.", the prince said. "These two may be content to rot for an eternity in this dimension, but I'm not. I want to return to my planet and face a legal punishment for my sins."

Thinking about it for a minute, Fabia then declared "Okay, I'll let you come with us. Now show us to this Bakugan."

The group then set off following the three. "Are you sure we can trust these guys?", Uranus whispered to Fabia. "What if this is a trap? Or these 'creatures' they're talking about can't or won't do what they say they can do?"

"Right now, we don't have many options." Fabia then turned her eyes back to the road they were walking along. "Now I suggest that we follow them, in the absence of any other viable ideas."

Uranus and Neptune were both silent, as the group continued on the path.
