Chapter 9

After the battle

#### After the battle ####

Ami stepped out of the stadium. "Well, that wasn't too difficult." she commented.

Then, she straightened up. "Great, Beryl just had to send one of her minions." she muttered.

Turning to her team members, Ami said, "Don't go anywhere. This is 1 battle I have to take care of." With that, she sprinted towards the nearby woods.

"Ami, wait." The rest of the team called after her to no avail.

Deciding that it would be better for them to find her, the 5 teenagers ran after her.

Hiding behind a couple of trees, they heard an "Eternal Mercury Power, Make-Up." Then they saw a naked Ami surrounded in a pale-blue light, ice swirling around her. In a moment, Eternal Sailor Mercury stood in her place.

Scanning the area with her visor, Eternal Sailor Mercury finally pinpointed the location of the youma.

Firing an ice ball at the cluster of tree on her right, the youma appeared into its true form.

"Sailor Mercury." it hissed. "My master has sent me to destroy you."

Eternal Sailor Mercury quirked and eyebrow and replied, "Oh, really?"

"Enough talk, scout, met your doom." the youma said, thrusting vines in Mercury's direction.

"Shine Aqua Illusion." Mercury fired a storm of ice at the vines, freezing them on immediate contract.

Casting another Shine Aqua Illusion, Eternal Sailor Mercury froze the forest youma.

Then, forming a ball of water with the Mercurian sign, Eternal Sailor Mercury shouted, "Mercury Aqua Mirage." and the youma decimated.

Eternal Sailor Mercury sighed, "I pity Beryl, all bark but no bite."

Turning to fact the cluster of trees her teammates have been hiding behind, Eternal Sailor Mercury asked, "Okay, how long have you guys been standing there?"

Tyson walked out sheepishly, blushing in embarrassment at being caught. "Err. . . Long enough?" he replied.

Eternal Sailor Mercury sighed, "Kenny, Max, Ray and Kai, I know the 4 of you are there. You can come out now."

The 4 teenagers stepped out of their hiding place. "Hi, Ami." they replied sheepishly.

"Explain." Eternal Sailor Mercury demanded, `patiently' tapped her foot.

"Err. . . We kinda of followed you." Tyson explained.

Detransforming, Ami shook her head in despair.

Turning to Kenny, she asked, "Chief, is there a water, most preferably an ice shrine around here?"

Kenny nodded, "It about 100 meters away."

"Meet me there in half and hours' time. I am sure you guys want some answers." Ami ordered, before running off in the direction of the shrine.

The rest of them shrugged.

@@@@ 10 minutes later, @@@@

Ami had transformed into her eternal form, and prepared the mediating room. Sighing inwardly, she knew she had to do this, even though it will drain her in the process. Glancing at her watch, she realized she had only a few minutes left. Detransforming, she waited for the others to arrive.

@@@@ A few minutes later @@@@

The rest of the team had arrived. Ami had ordered them to sit on the floor, cross-legged. Closing her eyes, Ami concentrated and willed her half of the Mercurian crystal out.

A pale blue light surrounded her as she was lifted in the air, transforming into her royal form in the process. Drawing strength from her mother planet, Princess Mercury focused on helping the planetary princes regain their memories. Eventually, a bright flash of blue light engulfed the whole room. Then, Princess Mercury collapsed on the floor, her princess dress fading into her street clothes.

#### Meanwhile ####

All 5 teenagers were getting their memories back.

Tyson glowed a golden color, the Uranus sign showing on his forehead.

Kai glowed a ruby red, the sign of Mars appearing on his forehead.

Max glowed a sea-blue, the sign of Neptune glowing on his forehead.

Kenny glowed an ice-blue color, the Mercurian sign glowed brightly on his forehead.

Ray glowed a deep forest green, the Jupiterian sign shining in his forehead.

While glowing in their respective planetary colors, the princes remembered all about the Silver Millennium and Queen Serenity's supposed betrayal. Most of all, they remembered their past loves.

Then, they fainted.

@@@@ About a couple of hours later @@@@

Tyson groaned, as he sat up. Who would have thought regaining memories would be so strenuous.

Around him, the other 4 were waking up, wincing at the mental agony the memories had given them.

"Anyone get the number of that truck that just hit me?" Max muttered.

"Unfortunately, no, Nep." Kenny replied.

Snapping his head at the team researcher, Max questioned, "Nep?"

Kenny blushed, "Sorry."

Max shook his head, "Never mind. It fits somehow."

Kai groaned in pain, "Ty?" he asked.

"Yes?" Tyson replied, behind him.

"You alright?" Kai asked, worried.

"Yeah, just a headache." Tyson replied, scooting up beside the crimsoned-eyed captain. Kai blushed.

"I have only been gone for a few minutes, and some of you are already getting back into your old habits." Ami's voice sounded over the opened door.

All 5 heads snapped up at her.

"Aspirin, anyone?" she asked, sweetly.

"Gimme." 5 voices muttered.

Ami shook her head in amusement, before handing out the pills.

Popping the pill into Ray's mouth, Ami handed him a glass of water, which he promptly swallowed.

"You okay, Thunder?" Ami asked.

Ray nodded, "Yeah, guess I just need a rest after this."

"Just go to sleep, love, you need it." Ami chided the Jupiterian prince.

Ray nodded, before drifting off.

Turning her head to the other 4 princes, Ami said, "I would suggest the 4 of you go to sleep as well. We will discuss this tomorrow. And don't worry, I've already phoned Mr Dickerson about this unfortunate incident, all he said was to make sure we are at the stadium for tomorrow afternoon's match."

Nodding their heads, the 4 teens hit the sack.

Pooping her head before closing the door, Ami said, "And onii-chan, I know how badly you want to join the Mercurian crystal, but it will have to wait."

Kenny nodded, before catching some shut-eye.

Ami smiled and closed the door.

Walking to the courtyard, she pulled out the Shot Card and released it.

A few minutes later, a shoot-and-dodge battle began.

After half an hour, Ami was getting fed up, so she pulled out the Sword Card. Focusing on the Shot Card's aura, she jumped and gently sliced the Card.

Smiling apologetically at her mistress, the Card transformed back into its card form.

Ami then went over to the stone chair and wiped her forehead. Her senses went on high alert as she felt another youma.

Transforming into her eternal form, Eternal Sailor Mercury teleported to the place where she felt the monster.

This time, it was another forest monster, but much stronger than the previous one.

"Shine Aqua Illusion." The attack hardly fazed the monster.

"Err . . . This is getting no where." Eternal Sailor Mercury thought. "Shabon Spray."

A thick fog of bubbles roared in, blinding the monster for a while.

"Hrmm . . . There should be a weak spot somewhere." Eternal Sailor Mercury thought, turning her Mercury's VR visor on. The visor pinpointed out the location of the monster's weakness.

"That shouldn't be too difficult." Eternal Sailor Mercury thought.

"Mercury Aqua Rhapsody." The monster froze.

Aiming at its right shoulder, Eternal Sailor Mercury shouted, "Mercury Aqua Mirage."

The monster was mercury-dusted.

A couple of minutes later, Eternal Sailor Mercury was back at the shrine. Detransforming, she looked into the mediation room and saw that the 5 planetary princes were still asleep. Sighing inwardly, she went over to Ray's side and fell asleep beside him promptly.
