"Mission Possible?"

Chapter Five

September 20, Tuesday morning:

The girls and guys woke up around 7:00 in the morning and prepared for the Dollet Mission. They quickly put on their blue and white uniforms, headed to Quistis's class to retrieve their GFs from the study panel in their desk, and headed to the cafeteria for breakfast. The girls sat at their usual table, trying to stay awake.

"I'm so tired and sleepy. I can barely stay awake," Serena whimpered.

"We all are Serena," Lita groaned, lifting her head off the table. She looked over her shoulder. "Here comes Ryo and the others."

The guys handed them some coffee and sat with them.

"Too bad that dinner at 7th Heaven was interrupted by those monsters a month ago." Amy sighed. She pulled out a Calculus book and looked at the equations.

"Plus, we just finished defeating that monster Telemachai last night," Raye added.

"We'll have to do dinner at the 7th Heaven at another time," Rowen replied, holding his coffee cup.

"I can't believe we had to get up this early for the mission," Mina yawned, leaning on Kento's shoulder.

"I'm still quite tired from last night. I didn't go to sleep until 2:30 this morning," Raye replied before she sipped her coffee.

"Well, we don't need to complain about it. I know we're tired but we all need to focus on the mission and just get that over with," Sage replied after drinking his coffee. Lita sat up and slugged him on the arm. He glared at her. "You'll be paying for that later on."

"We'll see about that," she retorted, putting her head down on the table and closed her eyes.

"Why do you think Beryl wants the Imperium Crystal, Serena?" Ryo asked her.

The question caught her by surprise and she almost spilt her coffee. "Um…the Imperium Crystal holds great power and if Beryl gets it, our world will be doomed. The Negaverse will rule this world and the universe. She has already conquered my home on the moon."

"On the moon?!! You and your friends used to live there?!!" Kento gasped.

Serena nodded. "Yes, in the past. To make a long story short, Jupiter, Venus, Mercury, and Mars, tried to stop Beryl's henchmen from destroying the kingdom. They held the henchmen off but the Negaforce was too strong. My mother used the last of her strength to stop Beryl from completely destroying the Moon Kingdom by trapping her and her henchmen in the Silver Imperium Crystal. She couldn't destroy Beryl because she would have destroyed me and the other Scouts as well. She sent us all to Earth to start a new life," she summarized, leaving out the part about her and the other girls being princesses.

"What happened to your mother after she sent you to Earth?" Sage asked.

She stared at her cup. "Luna and Artemis told me that she died."

"Could there be a possibility that Talpa may be looking for the Jewel of Life?" Cai whispered.

"Maybe. I think Mia or Anubis said that the jewel is the key to finding the last Ancient. The jewel also holds great power and if placed into the wrong hands, can become deadly. Anubis will take care of Mia and Yuli if anything happens," Ryo replied.

The loudspeaker came on. "Attention students. This is Headmaster Cid. If you are apart of the Dollet Mission, meet Instructor Trepe in the Main Hall by 0800 hours."

Mina sat up and looked at her watch. She blinked twice. "We have only five minutes left!"

"We better go now," Amy replied.

They headed towards the Main Hall and saw Squall standing there with Quistis.

"Good morning everyone. Squall, I know you've taken the Fire Cavern exam to retrieve the GF, Ifrit, this summer. Have any of you guys taken the Fire Cavern exam or something similar?" Quistis asked.

"We took the exam in the 12th grade," Raye answered.

"Same here," Kento responded.

"Well, you should be ready for today's mission. Here's the list of individuals who are in squads A through D. The other squads are waiting on us in Balamb City. In Squad A: Sage, Mina, Cai, and Ryo. Sage is the squad leader. In Squad B: Amy, Raye, Kento and Zell. Raye will be squad leader. In Squad C: Selphie, Serena, and Rowen. Selphie is the squad leader. And in Squad D: Lita, Squall, and Seifer," Quistis stated.

`It's bad enough that we're in the same institution but being in the same squad with Squall? That's even worse!!!!' Lita thought to herself, pacing the floor.

"Does Seifer have to be in the same squad with me?" Squall asked Quistis. Seifer and the Disciplinary Committee appeared from the West Block.

She sighed as she patted his shoulder. "I'm sorry Squall, the headmaster stated who will be in each squad. Also, he's your squad leader."

"Great, just great."

"Instructor, what's going on?" Seifer asked.

"You are the squad leader of Squall and Lita."

The headmaster stood next to Instructor Trepe. "Good morning. At ease." He looked at the squads. "I would like to wish you good luck on your first mission. Your SeeD Rank will be determined by you attitude, judgment, and conduct. If you are unable to get the job done, the other SeeD members will make sure that the mission is successful. You are to meet the other squads in Balamb City by driving the Garden cars. Next, you are to board the boat at the harbor and sail to Dollet. Good luck and you're dismissed."

"You are to head to the parking lot and drive the garden vehicles to Balamb. Let's go," Quistis ordered. They ran to the parking lot, loaded the Garden cars, and headed towards Balamb.

Back at the NetherWorld:

Queen Beryl and Master Talpa sat in their chairs and their henchmen stood before them.

"Master Talpa, those Scouts and the Ronins are going on a mission in Dollet. Send me there to destroy them," the Warlord of Illusion asked.

"Master Talpa, send me there to assist him. I'll make sure Halo will pay for what he did to me," Cale begged.

"Dais, while you're there, make sure that you get that gun blade specialist. Cale, I have something else for you to do," Talpa stated. The Warlord of Illusion bowed and disappeared. Talpa then turned to the Warlord of Darkness. "I'll call you when I need your help. Until then, I want you to go to the Nether Spirits."

"Yes master." Cale and the other warlords disappeared.

"Zoysite, what is your plan for gathering energy for the Negaverse and retrieving that crystal?" Beryl demanded.

"I've sent WereGarurumon to Earth. He's right now disguised as a stray brown puppy in Dollet's Central Square. Once a person talks and pets the puppy, it'll transform into its real state and absorb their energy. Afterwards, WereGarurumon will sniff out the holder of the Imperium Silver Crystal and take it from them. Shall I go through with my plan?"

"Yes." Zoysite disappeared. "Lady Kayura, I want you to go with her and assist WereGarurumon in retrieving the crystal and capturing that gun blade specialist." Zoysite cringed on the inside and glared daggers at Kayura. Lady Kayura bowed and disappeared.

The harbor in Balamb City:

After Quistis briefed everyone about the mission, everyone entered the boat and sailed towards Dollet. Amy and Rowen read magazines, Sage and Raye meditated, Kento and Mina slept in each other's arms, and Selphie, Serena, Ryo, and Cai played cards.

"Squall, can I see your gun blade?" Zell asked. Squall looked at him and turned his attention back to the floor.

"Please man?" he begged. Squall continued to ignore him. Zell sucked his teeth. "Fine. Just be that way." He stood up in his fighting stance and bobbed and weaved a little.

Seifer sat next to Instructor Trepe and across from Squall. "Sit down," he commanded.

Zell stopped and looked at Seifer. "What did you say?!!"

"I said `Sit down' chicken wuss!" He started to laugh.

"Screw you!!" Zell grunted and sat next to Squall.

Lita sat next to the instructor and stared out the window. "Instructor Trepe…" Lita began.

Quistis turned from the window and looked at Lita. "Yes Lita? What is it?"

"…Can I go above and get some fresh air?" Lita finished.

"Sure."

Lita went above and looked at the beautiful view. She leaned on the rail and inhaled the salt air and enjoyed the ocean breeze. She looked at the birds fly across the sky and started smiling. She closed her eyes and listened to the unique sounds of nature around her. Her eyes flew open when she heard footsteps approached her. She turned around and saw Sage standing there. She turned back and looked at the view. He stood next to her and stared at the view.

"What brings you here?" she asked him.

"I needed the fresh air." He turned and looked at her. "Are you ready for the mission?"

She faced him. "Of course. Why wouldn't I be? Aren't you?"

"I just wondered." He continued to look at the ocean before him. He smirked and looked at her. "Don't think I won't get you back for what you did."

She imitated his smirked and saw land up ahead. She also heard commotion going on. Another set of footsteps approached and Squall appeared next to them. He stared at the approaching land and pulled out a map.

"What are you doing?" Lita inquired.

"Looking at this map and comparing it to what I see before me right now."

"Did Seifer send you up here?" Sage asked him.

Squall looked from the map to Sage. "Yes." He pointed to an area on the map. "We should be landing here shortly so be ready." They all went below and waited for orders from Instructor Trepe.

"Your mission is to stop the Galbadian soldiers from entering Dollet and taking over the Communications Tower. Make sure that they are all destroyed. Make sure you have your GFs with you." Everyone jumped out of the boat.

"This way," Seifer ordered.

Squall and Lita followed him off the beach and upstairs to the town's entrance. Four Galbadian soldiers blocked the entrance. Squall and Seifer used their gun blades and fought two soldiers.

"GF Quezacotl, I summon you!" Lita commanded.

The bird-like GF appeared after a bolt of lightning struck the ground. It performed the Thunder Storm attack and bolts of lightning fried the last two soldiers. They ran straight ahead. Sage's squad was behind them.

"All right. Stand guard where Seifer and the others were," Sage ordered after Raye and Selphie's squads passed through.

"Galbadia soldiers are above us!" Raye shouted. "Let's get them."

Three Galbadian soldiers jumped from the balconies of apartments. Raye threw charms on their faces to drain their energy. Kento and Zell fought two of them. Amy, and Raye fought off the last one.

"Great job. Continue straight ahead!" Raye ordered.

"Rowen and Serena, check that building to your right. Destroy the soldiers if there are any," Selphie ordered.

Rowen checked upstairs and fought two soldiers. He heard commotion coming from downstairs and ran to help Serena. A soldier had her by the neck, and pinned against the wall. Serena's face slowly turned pale. Rowen grabbed the sword from the soldier and used the hilt to knock him out. He helped Serena up and sighed in relief that some color returned to her face.

They ran outside to Selphie. Three soldiers surrounded her. One soldier lay unconscious next to the car.

"GF Ifrit, I summon you!" Selphie commanded.

The ogre-like GF appeared with fiery hair and sharp claws. He performed the Hell Fire attack by riding a huge fireball up into the air and spiking it back to the ground below. The soldiers turned into burnt ashes.

"Are you okay?" Serena asked.

"Never better. Are all the soldiers gone from there?" Selphie asked Rowen.

"All three are gone."

"Great. We'll stand by right here."

Seifer and Raye's squads were on stand by at the town's Central Square.

"Check the area for Galbadian soldiers," Seifer ordered his squad.

Squall and Lita saw two soldiers hiding behind a car. Squall went in front of the car while Lita went around the back. Lita and Squall attacked the soldiers from both sides. Once they were satisfied with their job, they headed back to Seifer. A stray, brown puppy walked around the fountain and rubbed against Seifer's leg. He kicked the dog away and stared in the direction of the Communications Tower. Squall knelt in front of the dog.

`Something's not right about that dog. I'm starting to feel strong and evil vibes from it,' Raye thought to herself. She saw him kneel before it and was about to stroke its head. She ran towards him. "Squall don't touch that dog," she warned.

He already stroked the dog's head and a bright light blinded everyone for a few seconds. When the light faded, a wolf-like monster stood before them, wearing brown pants and brass knuckles. It had white fur with blue stripes. Squall lay unconscious in front of it.

"What the fuck is that?!!" Seifer exclaimed.

"I don't know but I don't want to find out," Zell replied. The water in the fountain rose higher in the air and a female figure stood on top.

"Where is the Imperium Crystal?" she ordered.

"Who are you and what are you talking about?" Seifer demanded.

"I am Lady Kayura. Hand over the crystal and no one will get hurt," she warned as she pulled a golden katana from her back.

"We can't let them see us transform," Raye told everyone except Seifer and Zell telepathically.

"Can you contact the others?" Kento asked her.

"Cover for me while I try to get Sage," Raye whispered. She closed her eyes and the symbol of Mars appeared on her forehead.

Sage and his squad scanned the area for more Galbadia soldiers. All of a sudden, the kanji of Wisdom appeared on his forehead. He closed his eyes and saw a vision of Lady Kayura standing on water. Next, he saw a wolf-like monster standing in front of Squall.

"What's going on Sage? Are the others in trouble?" Mina asked.

He opened his eyes and looked at her. "Looks like the others have company. They need our help."

"We can't all go. Only two of us are needed," Ryo stated.

"Cai and I will go. You two stay here. We'll contact you if we need more help." Cai and Sage ran through the alley in their sub armor.

"Any sign of them yet?" Sage asked him.

"There they are!"

They quickly transformed into their armors. Torrent attacked the wolf-like monster while Halo attacked Kayura. Amy dragged Squall over to the others. She lightly tapped his cheek and he slowly awoke.

"What happened?" Squall groaned as he held his head.

"We saw a blinding light when you touch the dog," Raye replied.

"Are you okay?" Amy asked, concern filling her voice.

"It felt like my energy was absorbed. Nothing like an elixir can cure my state," Squall stated. He pulled out an elixir and drunk the contents. He then saw Kayura attacking Halo. "I need to help them." He grabbed his gun blade and charged towards Kayura.

"Zell, go with Seifer to the Communications Tower," Raye ordered.

"Let's go Zell," Seifer ordered.

"Raye, you need…" Zell began.

"Zell, go now. That's a direct order!!" Raye interjected.

Zell wanted to tell her no, but he sighed in defeat. He and Seifer headed northwest, down an alley. Kento changed into his sub armor.

"Now you're going to get a dose of Sailor Scout medicine. Jupiter Star Power!" Lita shouted.

"Mercury Star Power!!" Amy shouted.

"Mars Star Power!!" Raye shouted.

"Armor of Hard Rock… Tao Gi!!" Kento shouted. They all suited up and prepared to kick butt.

"WereGarurumon, stop them!" Kayura shouted over her shoulder, as she blocked Squall and Halo's attacks.

Jupiter and Mercury jumped into the air. WereGarurumon went after them.

"Mercury Ice Storm Blast!" Mercury shouted.

"Garuru Claw!" the monster counterattacked. The cross slash hit Sailor Mercury in the chest and she landed in the water fountain.

"Jupiter Thunder Crash Zap!" Jupiter shouted.

"Mars Celestial Fire…Surround!" Mars shouted.

The two powers combined and turned WereGarurumon into ashes. Mars and Jupiter ran to the water fountain and pulled their friend out.

"Mercury, are you okay?" Jupiter asked.

"Yeah, I think so." She wrung out her hair.

"Someone else is here," Mars warned, holding an anti-evil charm between her fingers. "I know they are but I can't tell where they are." The warriors heard evil laughter around them.

"I know that laughter from anywhere. Warlord of Illusion, show yourself!" Hard Rock shouted.

"Now why would I want to do something like that? I want to have a little fun with my prey first before I destroy them."

"Mercury, do a computer scan and find out where he is," Mars ordered.

Mercury visors appeared and she took out her pocket computer. "Buy me some time."

"Star Sword Scream!" Lady Kayura shouted.

Pink lightning bolts surrounded Torrent, Squall, and Halo. Halo surrounded himself in a bubble and Torrent surrounded Squall and himself in a bubble for protection. The bolts pierced the bubbles and shocked them.

"Looks like someone's been taking their vitamins," Halo grunted as he tried to stand.

"This is just too easy. Surrender Ronins or feel the wrath of my Star Swords once more!!"

Once the smoke cleared, Halo and Torrent attacked her. She blocked Torrent's attack and charged after Halo. Before Lady Kayura could attack Halo, Squall jumped in between them.

"REZOKUKEN!!" He attacked her with his weapon. She managed to dodge most of his attacks. "Rough Divide!" He performed a rising slash on her and she fell backwards. She jumped up and counterattacked.

"Not so bad for an attack. Care to try that again?" Kayura hissed as her swords clashed with his gun blade.

"We need the others," Torrent shouted.

Golden arrows separated Kayura from Squall. The Ronins and the Scouts looked up at the hotel roof. Lady Kayura blocked Squall's diving slash before looking where the shower of arrows came from. She looked up on the hotel roof and saw Strata and Sailor Moon.

"Surrender Kayura, you're outnumbered," Strata replied.

"Mercury, do you have anything yet?" Mars asked.

Mercury stood in front of the water fountain and continued to type on the computer. "Nothing yet. I can't find him." The water fountain started to glow.

"Mercury, get out of the way!!" Jupiter exclaimed.

"What the…" She jumped out of the way.

"I call upon the fire of Mars. Fireball….. CHARGE!!" Mars shouted. The anti-evil charm landed on the water fountain and revealed the warlord.

"Dais, what are you doing here!" Kayura shouted, after dodging Strata's arrows. Their backs were to each other.

"I came to get something for Master Talpa. Web of Deception!!!" The thick, white strings held Squall, the Scouts and the Ronins, leaving them immobile.

"Star Sword Scream!!" Kayura shouted. The helpless Ronins, Scouts, and Squall suffered great injuries.

"Get the boy and let's go!" Dais ordered Kayura.

"No!!" Venus shouted. She jumped into the air. "Venus Meteor Shower!!"

"Flare Up Now!!" Wildfire shouted. Venus's beams ripped the thick strings while Wildfire's attack hit the warlord and the lady.

"You shall pay for that!! We will return!" Kayura replied before she and Dais disappeared.

"Are you guys okay?" Wildfire asked the Ronins and the other Scouts.

"Barely," Mars groaned while Sailor Moon helped her up.

"Where's Selphie?" Mercury asked while Venus helped her up.

"She went to the Communications Tower," Strata replied while helping up Squall.

"We need to get back to the mission," Mars stated.

They transformed back into their blue and white uniforms and went in the direction where Zell and Seifer went. They ran across a bridge, climbed up a mountain path, and stopped for a quick break on the cliff. They saw three people standing in front of the tower.

"Seifer, Zell, Selphie," Serena shouted. They turned around.

"Serena! You guys are okay," Zell shouted.

"You guys need to get down here," Seifer shouted. The group went around the cliff and met the others on the other side.

"We're to go inside and ride the elevator all the way to the top," Selphie stated.

They walked inside and ten Galbadian soldiers attacked them. Seifer, Zell, Squall, and Selphie gathered Cure, Fire, and Thunder magic from the soldiers while the others fought them off.

"GF Shiva, I summon you!" Cai shouted.

Icy winds swirled from each direction to form a crystal that rose from the ground. The ice goddess awoke from her chilly sleep and shattered the crystal. She performed the Diamond Dust attack by forming an extremely cold ball of ice and throwing it at the soldiers. The ice ball expanded, buried the soldiers in snow, and shattered into a billion pieces. The group ran towards the elevator and headed to the top floor. When they reached the place, they saw a soldier working on the satellite.

"Lieutenant Wedge, pass me that monkey wrench from over there," the soldier ordered. He extended out his hand for the tool.

"Lieutenant, I said…." He turned around to find fourteen people staring at him. "What are you doing up here!"

"That's none of your business," Selphie replied.

"Step away from the machine and you won't get hurt," Seifer cautioned.

"Never!" the soldier retorted. He charged towards them and Lita executed a roundhouse kick that slammed him into a nearby pole. Another soldier came off the elevator and ran to the other soldier's side.

"Major Biggs, are you okay?" the soldier asked, kneeling next to him.

"Lieutenant, help me destroy them or we'll both be demoted!"

The lieutenant stood up and charged towards Mina. When he was about to strike Mina, she sidestepped him and Kento handed him an uppercut. He landed next to Major Biggs.

"Give up! You're outnumbered!" Zell shouted.

Mina was about to summon her GF Brothers but a huge gust of wind swept the Major and the Lieutenant over the edge, and left them hanging on for dear life. A huge, flying monster appeared.

"Squall, find out what that thing is," Seifer ordered.

He used Scan magic to learn about it and determine its weakness. "Its name is Elvoret and its immune to poison and has a strong defense to strong magic. Also, we have to draw the GF Siren from it."

"I got that," Zell replied. He drew the GF from the monster.

"He got Siren! Everyone else attack!" Selphie shouted.

"GF Ifrit, I summon you," Ryo shouted.

"GF Shiva, I summon you," Amy shouted.

"GF Quezacotl, I summon you," Sage shouted.

Ifrit appeared first and performed the Hellfire attack. Next, Quezacotl appeared and performed the Thunder Storm attack. Lastly, Shiva appeared and performed the Diamond Dust attack. Elvoret disintegrated into billions of pieces.

"Thank goodness that's over with. Now we can head back to the garden," Seifer sighed as he headed towards the elevator. Everyone else joined him.

Major Biggs managed to climb up and crawled towards the control panel of the satellite.

"They think they could get away that easily." He punched the keys on the panel. "You'll finally meet your match." He slid down to the floor as his mind slipped into an unconscious state.

Everyone rode the elevator to the bottom of the tower. A female SeeD member from Squad H approached them.

"The transport back to garden will leave at 4:00," she replied.

Mina looked at her watch. "We have only thirty minutes to make it there."

"What are we waiting for? Let's get out of here!" Selphie shouted.

They heard commotion from the top of the building and saw a machine-like black widow jump from the top floor and landed in front of the cadets. They were forced into battle.

"Zell, find out what it is and its weakness," Raye ordered.

Zell used Scan magic and found some important data. "Its name is X-ATM092 and has a weakness to Thunder magic."

"GF Quezacotl I summon you!" Serena shouted. The GF appeared and short-circuited the machine.

Squall began to back away from the machine. "We need to get out of here. It looks as if it's repairing itself," Squall shouted.

They ran around the cliff and the machine caught up with them. They walked down the leftmost mountain path to avoid losing their balance in case X-ATM092 jumped behind them. Finally, they ran across the bridge, but stopped when the machine jumped in front of them.

"Turn back around!!!!" Sage shouted.

They ran back the other way but the machine blocked their way again and charged towards them. They turned around and continued towards the Central Square. Serena saw a stray cat and helped it to safety. They made it to the beach and the machine wasn't too far from them. Raye tripped over a rock and fell. Kento turned around, grabbed her and continued to head for the boat. The boat started to pull off.

"Kento, we're not going to make it!" Raye screamed.

"Yes we are!!" Kento assured. "Hold on!!!" He held her by her hand. "Here we go!!!"

They leaped for the boat and held onto the rail. Lita, Rowen and Cai pulled them onto the deck. The black widow jumped after them, but Quistis fired a couple of rounds at the machine and managed to malfunction its circuits.

Back at the NetherWorld:

"Dais, you failed miserably," Talpa scolded him.

"I'm sorry master."

"I hope Cale has luck retrieving the jewel." He turned to Zoysite and Kayura. "Did you gather energy for the Negaforce and retrieved the crystal?"

"We gathered energy from the gun blade specialist but we were unable to get the crystal and him," Zoysite replied.

"I want another plan to gather the jewel, the crystal, and the one they call Squall. Is that understood?"

"Yes milord," the henchmen replied and disappeared.
