Scene: Neffy's mansion during a divination with the Celestial Seeress Astraea. Beryl and the Shitennou have just learn that Dev and El can pool their energy to achieve god-level power.]
Jeddy: They really are Half-Sues...
Beryl: But even at full power, they are still a thousand times weaker than a Greater Goddess like Metalia.
Kunzite: Not by enough. Not when they have a god-killing weapon, and the element of surprise. They could have walked right up to Metallia, clasped hands, drawn their weapon, and taken her out before she even realized there was any danger.
Neffy: Whoever this "Big Daddy" of theirs is, he really did groom them into becoming the ultimate assassins.
Jeddy: This must have been what they meant by their plan not working if anyone figured out who or what they are.
Beryl: Mother must be warned at once!
Kunzite: I agree.
[Beryl does a double take]
Beryl: You do?
Kunzite: I still hold out hope they can be reprogrammed into joining our side, but Mother must be warned of this threat immediately.
Jeddy: Good. Let's go.
[They turn to leave, but stop when they see Neffy is still focused on the Divination.]
Neffy: You three go ahead. I'm staying here until I find the answer to the $64,000 question.
Beryl: And which question is that?
Neffy: [grins wolfishly] The one that brought us here in the first place. Namely, how did these two dancing fools manage to wipe away Wifey-Boy's memories, when that's a trick that not even Mother can pull off?
[Kunzite's eyes flicker with the merest traces of concern before he takes his place next to Neffy. Beryl and Jeddy join them a moment later.
Neffy: Show us everything the Wonder Twins did to Wifey-Boy after he was burned at the stake by Wiseman.
[The scene on the ceiling show Zoi lying in his own bed, dressed in a charred suit, unconscious and badly burned. Kunzite catches his breath at the sight of it, but doesn't make a sound. Den and El appear, wearing their coveralls and goggles.
[They bend over Zoi, looking over him critically as they pass their free hand over his body. Everywhere they touch, the fabric mends and his skin heals, as if it was never damaged. After about of minute of this, Zoi's green eyes flutter open and he looks at the twins in anger.]
Zoi: Well if it isn't little Miss Nastypants and her Fuckboi brother! How the Hell did you two get in my room!
[Dev and El merely smirk and place a finger to their lips and make a shhhhhhh sound.]
Dev: Go back to sleep, Zoisite Midori. [His eyes glow red as he speaks and then flash like strobes.] You don't see us. We are not really here. You have never met either of us before in your life.
[Zoi does not seem to question this, but settles back under the covers and closes his eyes.]
El: [eyes also glowing red and flashing] As a matter of fact, you will sleep as if dead, regardless of anything we say or do. You will not wake until we are gone. When you do, you will not remember anything that happened today. Nothing at all.
Dev: Good thinking.
El: Thank you.
[Dev grabs his sister's hand and gives it a little squeeze before he wanders away to rummage through Zoi's vinyl record collection while El continues to peer down at the sleeping Zoi.]
Jadeite: Hypnosis?
Kunzite: It must be, but Zoisite's unique brain chemistry should make him largely immune-
[He stops talking abruptly as El turns to address her brother]
El: He sure is pretty. And soft. And he smells nice. I wish I was half as pretty as he is.
Dev: You're prettier.
El: [scoffs] Yeah right. [smooths his gold curl back from his face] I thought his pictures were something, but seeing him up close like this? Sleeping like an angel? A beauty like this only comes around once in a few thousand years.
[She loosens his tie, undoes his collar, and snakes her hand down into his shirt]
Jadeite: What the..?
[Kunzite doesn't say anything, but is starting to look just a little alarmed.]
Dev: [seems far more interested in Zoi's copy of The Police's Synchronicity] Not my cup of tea.
El: [laughs] Yes, we know. You like your ladies big and fat. But for those of us who are not into the plumpers, his looks are fairly ideal.
[Kunzite's eyes go wide as she leans down and kisses Zoi on the lips. Then she pulls off her coveralls so that she's just in her bra and panties.]
[El straddles Zoi body, and starts unbuttoning his shirt. Kunzite's looking increasingly stressed.
Neffy: [chuckling at Kunzite's discomfort as he watches El undress Zoi, raining his skin with feather light kisses] Oh, yes, that's right. He WAS in his underpants when we showed up...I did wonder why Wifey-Boy's clothes were all over the floor.
[Kunzite gives Neffy a menacing look that makes him laugh harder]
[Dev finally looks up and seems equally appalled by his sister's behavior]
Dev: El? what do you think you are doing? We don't have time for that sort of thing!
El: [giggles] As far as I'm concerned, we don't have time not to.
[She crawls under the covers with Zoi, and then pats the bed on the other side of his as an invitation for her brother to come join them.]
Dev: El-
El: Oh, come on. [turns down the corner and give him a come hither look] we're both going to be dead soon, so when are we going to get another chance?
Kunzite: ANOTHER CHANCE FOR WHAT!
Neffy: [grinning like the cat that ate the canary] Oh, get your mind out of the gutter. I'm sure it's something completely innocent and g-rated.
[Dev looks at the door, then the bed, then the door again, and then heaves a heavy sigh.]
Dev: Ok. Fine.
KUNZITE: FINE?
[Dev strips off his coveralls so that he is in his underwear and joins them in the bed. El giggles happy as he wraps his arms around them both and pulls them close, gripping caressing the back of El's waist as his nuzzles Zoi's back and neck as if they were a single person.]
[El giggles happily, then gives Zoi a very grown up kiss, before turning him around so that Dev and give him a grown up kiss as well.]
[Kunzite looks like he is about to explode with fury.]
[Then Zoi's phone rings and the twins laugh as they vanish in a flash, along with their coveralls.]
[Zoi wakes and reaches for his phone, glancing at the clock and the darkness outside.
Zoi: Hello? ...Naru? ...I'm at home, where are you?
[With a wave of Kunzite's hand the scene vanishes]
Kunzite: THEY'RE DEAD! THEY ARE BOTH DEAD!
Neffy: [all smiles] Whaaat? I thought you were going to take them to Chuck-E-Cheese and then bake them some cookies and convince them to join our side.
Kunzite: I'M GOING TO FIND THOSE LITTLE PERVERTS AND THEN I'M GOING TO KILL THEM BOTH!
Neffy: Oh, come on. They are just innocent little children. Impressional little scamps. They aren't even human. We shouldn't be judging them by human morals-
Kunzite: [Summons a pair of energy blades] WOULD YOU LIKE TO DIE TOO?
Neffy: No. I'm good.
Kunzite: SEERESS ASTRAEA! GIVE THE PRECISE LOCATION OF THOSE TWO LITTLE DEGENERATES!
Astraea: They're...gone.
Beryl: [alarmed] Gone? What do you mean 'gone'?
Astraea: Shortly after this transpired, they regrouped and said it was time. They mused aloud about Metalia's last known location, then smiled at one another and said they had a wedding to crash. Then they laughed before they summoned a portal and vanished.
Jeddy: A wedding...whose wedding? [ponders]
Neffy: Don't bother trying to figure it out. Metalia "last known location" probably hasn't happened yet. They've escaped into the future.
Jeddy: But if they are in the future, how do we go after them?
Kunzite: We...can't...
Beryl: [snarling with rage] KUNZITE! This is all your fault! We could have informed mother and dealt with them once and for all, but you allowed your...MERCY...and ...your HUMANITY...to get in the way! Mother will hear all about this! And when I am done...YOU WILL NO LONGER BE HER FAVORITE!
[Beryl teleports away. As do the others.]
