Questions and answers
Amara Tenou, also known as Sailor Uranus, sat with one foot resting on the other knee while she stared at the TV. She did this for several reasons. One was there was really nothing to do. The other was to get her mind off that headache that just wouldn't go away. She looked all around her apartment for that damn bottle of asprine, but no side of it. So she just stared at the TV.
Hotaru Tomeo was watching her adoptive parent from the hallway stare at the tv. She was sitting in her room talking to Luna and Artemis when Amara had ran in there said a number of curse words that Michelle would have scowled her for saying them in front of her and then left. Hotaru followed Amara around after that and it lead to this. She was sitting on the couch. She glanced at the clock on the wall. It had been two hours already. No reaction. Hotaru got bored with this watching thing so she turned and returned to her room.
"I think Amara's lost her marbles." Hotaru said as she entered the room. She said this to not humans, but two cats. One was black, the other was white. Both had crescent moons on their forheads.
Artemis took a deep breath. If he had hands he'd pull out his hair. If he had hair to pull out that is. Its been a month. No missing pictures, not even any concern from their parents. The inner scouts were missing. And not one thing was connecting together as to find out there location. Everytime that had what they thought was a lead it would never fit in with another lead they had.
Luna looked over at Artemis. He was going nuts over this missing scout thing. She was too. If only the answers were so easy. If only they had went with them to the park that night. Luna looked at the bed covers. They should have went. Then she would be with the scouts not looking for them.
Amara suddenly burst into the room looking at Hotaru, "Hey Hotaru wanna go to the store?"
Hotaru blinked for second and then nodded. "Luna, Artemis, you two wanna come?"
"Nan, go ahead." Artemis answered, "I wanna see if I can sort any of these leads out."
Amara grabbed Hotaru by her wrist. "Let's go!"
Michelle shifted the bag on her shoulder as she walked down the street. Her companion was a tall green hair woman. This was Trista Meioh, better known as Sailor Pluto, guardian of the gates of times.
Michelle was walking home from work when Trista came out of nowhere. She told her that she had some information on a few of their problems.
"So what kind of information do you have?" Michelle asked, looking at Trista.
"Its about-"
A yellow motorcycle pulled up off the street. Two people were on it. One was a young girl with short black hair. The other was a blond woman with short hair as well.
"Trista!" Hotaru hopped off the bike and hugged Trista.
"Hello, Hotaru."
Hotaru looked up at the older woman, "Where ya been? I've missed ya."
"Well, I've been busy."
"You're always busy."
"Trista, has some information on some of our leads." Michelle explained.
Amara perked up just the slightest. She glanced around and got off her bike. "Let's go somewhere a little more secluded."
About ten minutes later the four women were in the park. Amara was leaned against and tree, Hotaru was seated on the grass next to her and Trista and Michelle were on the bench right in front of the tree.
"So what's this info you got?" Amara asked.
Trista nodded and started, "I discovered where the youmas were coming from."
"Really? New enemy?" Michelle questioned.
"Not at all. All the monsters the inners have been fighting are coming out of a portal that leads to the negaverse."
"I thought the inners defeated that negaverse a long time ago." Amara said.
"They did. They're just rogue youmas. Coming out of the portal and running havoc on the streets."
Amara sighed. "Are you serious? Its just left-over youma. The first time I spotted one it said that. After that they kept poping up and drainging people I thought it was new enemy, but all this time its been youma from an enemy the inners defeated years ago. What are we garbage collectors?"
"That's what it seems like." Hotaru agree.
"Anything else?" Michelle asked, glancing at Trista.
Trista looked at her, then Amara and Hotaru, "Yes, one more thing-"
A mass of people ran by, screaming at the top of their lungs. The four scouts looked in the direction of the screaming. Soon people started running into the park.
"I wish they would scream a little lower. I have a headache." Amara muttered.
Michelle stood up and grabbed a random person by the arm. "What's going on?"
"M-m-m-mon-mon-mon....AHHHHHHHHHHH!" The person tore away from her grasp and ran.
"That was nice," Hotaru uttered, "what the hell is a m-m-m-mon-mon?"
The three older scouts all rolled their eyes in her direction.
"Excuse me?" Michelle questioned.
Hotaru laughed nervously, "Sorry. I meant to say what the heck? what the heck?"
Michelle then glared up at Amara, "Were you cursing in front of her again?"
"N-no." Amara faulted.
Trista stood up. "We're going to have to say it for later."
They then heard even more screaming, but this time it was coming from the other end of the park.
"Sounds like we got two on the loose." Amara noted. "Hotaru and me will take care of the one over there and you guys go take care the one in the park."
The other three nodded and they spilt up.
The youma, a slimming, purple, beading eyed monster with fins for feet and knives for fingers. He ran down the street doing what it did best. Trash anything and everything. This youma had a smile plastered on its face, he was as happy as can be. Because he knew that there was no one to stop him and he was going to take advantage of the fact. The sailor scouts were missing from the face of the earth and that meant that all youma were free. Oh happy day!
Just because he knew he would get away with it, he slashed a car with it sharp claws in half. He then released a blast of gooey yellow saliva out of his mouth into a store. He jumped in the air, grabbed on to a telephone pole and ripped it off. All because he knew he would get away with it.
Well being a youma of the negaverse came with its ups and downs. The ups were they were free from Queen Beryl and the sailor scouts were missing. The downs were they were also not aware of the things that have changed on earth in the years they were in their dimension.
This youma grabbed a random person running for their life and pulled it close. Just for the hell of it, because it knew Queen Beryl didn't need it, sucked the energy out the person and continued on his way only to stop in his tracks and stare at what was coming his way.
There was a little girl coming his way. She was floating his way was what it seemed. She had a long weapon in her hand. The blade was shape in a G-shape was. Her hair was black and short and her outfit was too fimilar to this youma just not of any color he remembered seeing. The skirt was purple, so was the collar. The boots were the same color with laces. The sleeves were cut as well. And she was floating towards him.
No wait she was not floating towards him, but was standing on the back of a motorcycle that was being driven by yet another one of these strange people. She was wearing a navy blue skirt with a yellow bow in front of her chest. Her hair was blond and short.
The youma's eyes grew big in fear and it took a few steps back. "Sailor scouts!? It can't be! The sailor scouts are missing!"
The motorcycle flew right pass the youma and did a 180 turn before coming to a stop. The youma turned around to look at the scouts. The one standing on the bike was missing. Only the blond remained. He gulped when he heard a noise behind him. And slowly turned around to meet certain death.
"You...you're not suppose to be here! The sailor scouts are missing!" The youma yelled frantic.
Sailor Saturn blinked at the youma. "If I'm not a sailor scout then what am I; a figment of your imgination?"
The youma turned to run only to skid to a stop. The other one was right in front of him. The youma looked from one to the other. He concluded that he had a better chance getting through the girl, even if she had that large sharp pointy thing in her hand. He turned and ran back towards her.
He ran at full speed and then crashed. He face was smashed against an unseen object and he looked at the young soldier out the corner of his eye. She then pointed at something and muttered something he could not hear. After that she jumped out of the way and he fell flat on his face. He heard a yell, then hell unleased itself upon him in the form of a golden colored ball and everything after that was screaming and pain. Then nothing more.
Sailor Uranus sighed. "I still can't believe we're fighting rogue youma. They weak and...and...well weak." She climbed back onto her bike and Saturn followed, not sitting the same way though. "Come on. Maybe Neptune and Pluto are having trouble."
Sailor Neptune and Pluto were not having trouble. In fact, they had just disposed of the youma with one attack from Neptune. They were now just standing there watching the youma turn into a pile of dust, and then, just because that was too easy, they watched the dust blow away.
"So," Neptune started, "what was that other thing you found out?"
Pluto looked over at her comrade. "The inners are not on earth anymore."
Neptune cocked an eyebrow, "What? What do you mean they're not on earth anymore?"
Pluto shrugged, "That's all know is that they are not on earth anymore. Where they went is beyond me. The only thing I could guess is they not on our earth anymore and are in another dimension."
"So they may be off battling a evil being in that evil beings world?" Neptune questioned.
Pluto walked forward. "Yes, they could be. Let's head home."
"What do you mean they're not on earth anymore and might be in another dimension!?" Amara exclaimed, "Why didn't they tell us?"
Michelle looked at her lover. "Calm down, Amara."
Amara took a deep breath and sat back down on the couch next to Michelle.
"That's all I know." Trista answered.
"Trista, you always know more than you let on." Luna pointed out, from her spot on the table. "You wouldn't happen to be lieing to us now would you?"
"Trust me, I wouldn't lie about something like this."
Artemis, who was sleep when the outers got home, ran out of Hotaru's bedroom at a insteresting pace. "I saw her! I saw her! I saw her! She's here!" He jumped on the table and the other people and animal occupying the room stared at him with very much concerned for his sanity.
"Artemis, who's here?" Luna asked.
Artemis looked at her. "Queen Serenity. I was sleep and she came to me in my dreams, then when I woke up she was in the room."
With no heistation, the outers and two cats ran to Hotaru's room. Amara pushed the door open and looked around frantic. They saw nothing. All of them looked down at Artemis.
"Are you sure you saw Queen Serenity?" Michelle asked.
Artemis nodded, "Yes, yes, and YES!"
Luna put her paw on Artemis' paw. "Look, Artemis, maybe you're seeing things. With the inners being missing, and the stress that you've been under. You might have just imagined it." She explained sweetly.
Artemis snapped a look at her. "I imagine mice, red ribbions, and string NOT Queen Serenity!"
"Well now you can add her to your list `cause she ain't in here." Amara replied, closing the door and going back to the living room.
The others were closely behind her when she suddenly stopped. Hotaru bumped into her back and then almost fell back if Michelle hadn't been there to catch her.
"What's wrong?" Trista asked, pushing her way up to Amara. She looked at Amara, whose eyes were wide in shock and mouth hung open. Trista rolled her eyes in the direction of what Amara was looking and her eyes too bugged out.
"I wish someone would tell us what was going on?" Hotaru asked, still in Michelle's arms.
Luna and Artemis ran through Trista's legs.
"See, I told you! I told you I didn't imagine her!" Artemis said.
Trista and Amara walked forward into the living room staring at the same spot. Michelle and Hotaru finally got to see what it was they were looking at. In the sudden surprise and shock Michelle let Hotaru go.
"OW!" Hotaru yelped.
Michelle shook her head and looked down at Hotaru, "I'm sorry." She helped her up. She kept her eyes on the spot all of them seem to be looking at.
What, more like who they were looking at was a ghoastly figure. She was fairly heighted woman dressed in a white dressed that tighten at the wasit and hugged her legs with ivory colored hair in the same hairstyle of the one and only Sailor Moon. But this was not Sailor Moon. She was much older. She was Queen Serenity, ruler of the Silver Millennium.
She smiled as she looked at the four women and two cats. "Hello."
Thud!
"OW!" Hotaru yelped again. Michelle had dropped her once again. When Michelle tried to help her up she declined and settled for staying on the floor.
"Q-queen Serenity?" Luna questioned as she observed the regain woman.
"Yes, it is me." She answered. "Before any of you ask, I am here to explain a few things. How shall I put this? I am filling in the pieces to your puzzle." No one said anything they just let her talk. "Well as you may have all notice, my daughter and her court are missing."
"You know where they are?" Artemis asked.
Serenity gave him a curt nod. "I do. In fact, I sent them to where they are."
"Why?" Luna questioned.
"Because my daughter wished on the silver crystal and activated it. Something terrible happen. Darien was killed and she was so upset that she didn't want to be here anymore and the others kinda end up going as well since they were in the range of the power of the crystal. I granted her wish."
"So why doesn't anyone remember them?" Hotaru asked.
"Oh well, I made it so that they never existed."
Amara cocked an eyebrow, even though no one saw it. "Wait? So there is no Crystal Tokyo is there?"
Serenity shook her head. "I am afraid not."
"So there's no fixed future and the inners are where now?"
"Now I cannot tell you that. I will tell they are safe and everything will pull itself together in one way or another." With that she vanished from site, leaving six very confused minds.
A/N: Will leave it there and say ho ho. Now, you know what the hell is going on. Or somewhat. I think I outdid myself with this chapter. I like it.
