heroines got transported into Spira and after several minutes, they
return back to Earth. However, the several minutes on Earth was
several MONTHS in Spira! So, what happened during that time? Well,
your questions are going to get start to be answered, everyone!

Prelude: A castle of stone and
metal floating in the sky that consist of one hundred floors.
Within this massive structure, there are countless cities,
villages, towns, forests, plains, lakes, and whatever you can
imagine. There is only one staircase that connects one floor with
another and these staircases are located within dangerous mazes
filled with monsters. The players with navigate through these
floors to the top with nothing than the weapons in their hands. And
yes, I said players.
This is the world of Aincrad, a floating
castle in a virtual sky, and yes, I said VIRTUAL sky. This world
and this floating castle world are in a realm made of digital
information…the world of Sword Art Online. A world that was
supposed to be game, but because a nightmare prison when its
creator, Akihiko Kayaba, trapped the ten thousand players within
this virtual world and if they die here, they will die in real
life. The ten thousand players struggle in this ‘game
death’ to reach the top of the floating castle where the
final boss and the key to their freedom waits.
You may know this story and the stories that
come after it, but do you know all of the stories? All of the tales
that happened within the floating castle? What about the tales that
happened after the floating castle was conquered? There are stories
connected to the ‘tale’ of this floating castle, its
‘history’, and its ‘aftermath’, but they
weren’t told…until now. These are those
stories…

Moon Online: Gaiden
Story
8: Spira Stories 1: New World Dress-Up
Note: This story takes place in
the Hollow Fragment
timeline and takes place around during time of Chapter 17 of World’s Song.
July 22, 2025, Japanese
countryside
In the countryside of Japan, where there is a
Japanese Shinto shrine, there is a battling going on where
Heathcliff, also known as Akihiko Kayaba, the creator of the
Full-Dive VR device known as the NervGear, and also the VRMMO game
known as Sword Art Online in which he used to entrap around 10,000
people within for over two years in what is known SAO Incident
where around 4,000 of them died. Included in the people that he
trapped and survived Sword Art Online was none other than Sailor
Moon AKA Serena Tsukino, who is Kayaba’s niece in this life,
but when Sailor Moon was Princess Serenity of the Moon Kingdom
about one thousand years in the past, Kayaba was the
‘lover’ of Sailor Moon’s ‘royal
mother’, Queen Serenity, and her father. But right now, he is
fighting against Sailor Celestial AKA Suguha Kirigaya, who is the
reincarnation of Princess Serenity’s younger sister from the
Silver Millennium, Princess Selene, the Sailor Scout of Reality,
and one of the main reasons for Sword Art Online: To awaken
Suguha’s power…All of it including the very essence of
creation itself, Etherion.
Right now, as Sailor Celestial’s
friends/family/allies watched, Heathcliff and Sailor Celestial
continue their intense fight and their clashing energies causing
them to leap back, but then Heathcliff gasps in shock as he is
grabbed from behind and restrained by Valkyrie Sailor Moon, who is
missing her helmet due to her losing it earlier in the fight.
Sailor Moon yells out, strongly, “Now,
Celestial, take him down now!”
Sailor Celestial shouts out, “I
can’t!”
Sailor Moon shouts out, “Don’t
worry about me! Just stop him once and for all! That’s all
that matters!”
The others are stunned and Sailor Mars yells
out, stunned, “What are you doing?!”
Sailor Uranus says, worriedly,
“Don’t do it!”
Sailor Celestial shouts out, concerned,
“I can’t do it with you in the way! I
won’t…!!”
Sailor Moon yells out, with tears in her eyes,
“How many more people have to suffer and be hurt by this
madman that dared to call himself our father when we were Moon
Princesses?! How many more have to die like in Sword Art Online?!
How many more people have to suffer for his greed and selfish as
the families and friends of those that died in SAO? The people of
Argus that have to live with the stigma of what he did? He
destroyed the Silver Millennium and he destroyed four thousand
mainly innocent lives? We can’t let him continue what he is
doing or roam free to let him do it again! We can’t let him
create second Sword Art Online! Please, Celestial, do it
now!”
As the memories of what happened with Sachi
and Diabel, from their point of view, and remembering what happened
to Aaron, Sailor Celestial gains tears in her eyes and Kazuto,
Asuna, Kotone, Rika, Keiko, the other Sailor Scouts, and Tuxedo
Mask shout out in unison, horrified, “Serena!”
Sailor Moon yells out, in a pleading tone,
“Celestial…DO IT NOW!!!”
Tuxedo Mask calls out, shocked, “Sailor
Moon, don’t!” Sailor Celestial, with tears in her eyes,
roars out as she powers up and unleashes a powerful beam strike
much to the shock of the others. However, Heathcliff roars out with
power in which he blasts Sailor Moon off him and uses his Keyblade
to strike back at the wave, but he is struggling to hold it back as
Sailor Celestial pours on the pure elemental power. Then Heathcliff
roars out with every ounce of his power and knocks the energy wave
into the force-field containing the Queen’s Gate causing it
to suffer a major power surge. Heathcliff stumbles as the counter
took much of his strength and Sailor Moon takes this one change
with both of her Keyblades causing her to roar out as she charges
at Heathcliff. Heathcliff swings around only to get plastered by a
powerful blow from Sailor Moon that sends him flying into the
Queen’s Gate causing it to glow in a bright flash when
Heathcliff hits it causing him to seemly vanish!
With what seems like the end of Heathcliff
causes some kind of space-time storm to come from the Queen’s
Gate in which Naruto, Sakura, and Hinata grunt out in pain as some
kind of energy is leaving their bodies.
Ino says, shocked, “Sakura!”
Kushina says, concerned and stunned,
“Sochi!” But then Sailor Celestial, Davis, and Sailor
Sun fall to one knee as a glow comes from them as well.
Veemon says, shocked, “Davis!”
Gatomon says, surprised,
“Kari!”
Sailor Uranus says, looking at the
Queen’s Gate, “I think that the problem is coming from
that.”
Sailor Pluto says, looking at the
Queen’s Gate, “We must get away from the Queen’s
Gate now!”
Keiko says, nervously, “I think
that’s a good idea.”
Rika says, with a nod, “No
kidding.” But it is too late as the surging Queen’s
Gate sends a powerful wave that engulfs everyone in light and when
the light fades away, everyone, but the Leaf ninja of the group,
with the exception of Naruto, Sakura, and Hinata, have vanished
from the scene!
Tenten asks, “What happened? Where is
everyone?”
Lee says, “Gone, Tenten! And the
Queen’s Gate as well!” Everyone left in the area see
that the Queen’s Gate is gone as well!
Kushina says, fearfully, “No, not
again!”
Minato tells Kushina, “It will be okay,
Kushina-chan. Naruto has friends and powerful friends. They will
find their way back.” Minato thinks in his mind, “At least, I hope
so.”
July 22, 2025 (Earth time); Unknown
world
Asuna Yuuki slowly wakes up to find herself
falling with Kazuto Kirigaya, Keiko Ayano, Rika Shinozaki, Kotone
Takemiya, Sailor Orion AKA Shino Asada, Sailor Celestial AKA Suguha
Kirigaya, Kazuto’s younger step-sister/cousin, Tuxedo Mask,
the Juuban based Sailor Scouts, Naruto, Sakura, Hinata, and all of
the Digidestined and their Digimon partners in which they are
unconscious. Asuna then sees that they are high up in the sky and
they are falling fast.
Asuna thinks in her mind, panicky, “What happened?! Where are
we?” Quickly, Asuna realizes that there isn’t time
as they are falling quick and reaching terminal velocity in which
she yells out, “Serena-chan! Suguha-chan! Wake up!
Shion-chan! Someone! Anyone! Wake up!” However, the ones that
could use the power of flight and then some to save them remain
unconscious despite Asuna’s pleads and yells in which she can
see a massive body of water coming closer and closer. As memories
of what happened through the start of SAO up to this point flash
through her mind, Asuna thinks in her mind, “After all of our
struggles…all of our battles…is this how it ends for
all of us? This is how we will met our ends? No! No, I can’t
accept them! I won’t accept that! We’ve been through
too much…suffered too much…struggled through life and
death together! I won’t accept this! I can’t accept
this! I will not allow this to happen!” Soon after, a
golden five-point star sigil appears on Asuna’s forehead and
she is bathed in a bright glow in which the glow seems to wake up
Sailor Sun and she looks towards her.
Sailor Sun thinks in her mind, “Who…?” When
the glow fades away, Sailor Sun is shocked to see a brand new
Sailor Scout in front of her.
This newest Sailor Scout has Asuna’s
long chestnut hair in her hairstyle, but she has a five pointed
golden star sigil on her forehead, light pink colored lips, golden
star earrings attached to her ears, her head is covered in
beautiful silver Y-style barbute
armor helmet with a silver wing attached to each side of the
helmet, she has white and red plate armor that covers her chest and
waist and tightly fits over all of her arms, in the chest area of
her armor, there is a broach that’s a white heart shaped
broach with a large golden star jewel attached to it with what
looks like Rainbow Dragon surrounding the heart with a pair of
crossed rapiers in the center as well as eight silver feathered
wings attached to the sides of the broach, she has a red armored
skirt with two rapiers similar to Lambent Light, Asuna’s
final SAO rapier, attached along with a weapon that looks like the
Pink Samurai Ranger’s Sky Fan, she has red armored kneepads,
she has white armored high-heeled boots that goes up to one-half of
her lower legs, and finally, she has beautiful glittering huge and
fluffy silver feathered wings coming out of her back.
Sailor
Sun thinks in her mind, shocked, “Asuna?!” Soon after,
Asuna transfers energy into Sailor Sun and she transforms into a
brand new Sailor Scout forms as well.
Sailor Sun’s new Sailor Scout form has
her brown hair flowing down to the end of her back behind her back,
she has a golden armored
helmet in the style of Greek Thracian Helmet that has a
piece covering the chin and connecting the two part that are
covering the sides of her head along with a design of a mighty and
majestic phoenix on the top portion of the helmet, she has pink
eyeshadow on her eyelids, deep, full, and gorgeous shimmering pink
lips, her fuku is now similar to samurai style armor that’s
so tightly covering her chest and waist that her strong feminine
figure can be seen through not in an obscene manner, the armor is
pure golden in color in which there is a new larger heart-shaped
broach in the center in which the heart-shaped broach is golden in
color with two crossed swords in the center with Black Rose Dragon
and a majestic phoenix over the two crossed swords, a button on
top, and ten wings attached to the broach, attached to the armor on
her chest and waist, there are red armored gloves that cover the
whole of her arms in which the armor looks like it comes from
European knight armor with armored shoulder pads like
Magnamon’s shoulder pads covering over the armored gloves
over the shoulder area in which armored shoulder pads are black
with golden-red sun sigil in the center of each shoulder pad, she
has thick armored pink bracelets over her now armored wrists with a
shield like a Hoplite’s shield attached to the left bracelet
with the shield being bronze in color with a picture of the Winged
Dragon of Ra in the center of the shield, attached to the chest and
waist armor, there is an armored skirt that goes down one-half of
her thighs in which the armored skirt is pink, golden, and red in
color with a similar broach to one on her chest attached to the top
center portion of the skirt, and she has thick armored high-heeled
boots that goes just above her kneecaps with five inch knife-like
heels. Attached to her skirt is a pair of Lightning’s Omega
Weapon Gunblades from Final Fantasy XIII, an exact duplicate of the
Mighty Morphin Pink Ranger’s Power Bow with the Crest of
Light in rainbow colors on the bow, and she has eight huge and
fluffy golden feathered wings coming out of her back.
The two new Sailor Scouts look at each other
and they nod their heads in unison as they create an energy field
that slows the fall of everyone in which most of the others wake up
from their unconscious conditions.
Sailor Saturn asks, “What?
What’s happening?”
Yolei says, upon seeing the situation,
“We’re floating in the sky!”
When Tai looks at Sailor Sun, he asks,
“Kari?”
Sailor Sun responds, with a nod, “Yep!
New and improved VALKYRIE Sailor Sun at your service,
Tai!”
There are gasps and Sailor Jupiter says,
“Now, Sailor Sun is a Valkyrie Sailor
Scout!”
Sailor Venus asks, looking at the new Sailor
Scout, “But who is she?”
Sailor Pluto says, stunned, “Sailor
Star!”
Plenty of the others look at Sailor Pluto
and Sailor Uranus asks, “Sailor Star?!”
Sailor Pluto says, “As her name says,
she is the Sailor Scout of Stars and she is closely linked to
Sailor Sun and the Solaris Kingdom. Remember, plenty, if not all,
of the suns in the universe are stars including the one giving
light and warmth to our solar system.”
Sailor Moon and Rika look at Sailor Star and
they ask in unison, surprised, “Asuna?!”
There are looks of shock as Sailor Star
smiles and Keiko asks, “Asuna is a Sailor Scout
too?”
Sailor Orion says, “It looks that way.
For some reason, this doesn’t surprise me.”
Just then a familiar female voice shouts
out, “Mommy!” Soon after, Yui, in her human form,
floats over and hugs Sailor Star.
Sailor Celestial asks, shocked,
“Yui-chan?!”
Sailor Jupiter asks, “What’s she
doing here?” Just then Sailor Moon yelps as she is hugged by
Strea, looking as she did in SAO.
Rika asks, shocked, “Strea is here
too?”
Strea says, excitedly,
“Yep!”
Yolei asks, curiously, “Can somebody
tell us where we are?”
Hawkmon says, “By the looks of things,
we are high in the air over an ocean, Yolei.”
Tentomon says, “I believe that’s
pretty obvious, Hawkmon.”
Patamon asks, “How did we get
here?”
Veemon says, “Good question,
Patamon.”
Gatomon says, “No kidding.” Just
then the group looks to see a strange red flying airship coming
down below them in which float down onto it.
Biyomon says, “We’re
safe.”
Sora says, with a sigh of relief,
“Thank goodness.” The new Sailor Scout, revealed to be
Asuna’s Sailor Scout form of Valkyrie Sailor Star, looks at
the unconscious Kazuto, who looks like Kirito in his SAO avatar, in
which she smiles before she collapses to the ground and transforms
back into Asuna, looking like she did in SAO.
Yui yells out, concerned,
“Mommy!”
Sailor Moon says, really concerned,
“Asuna!” Sailor Moon goes over to one of her best
friends from SAO and puts her into her arms while Asuna’s
broach from the chest armor clatters to the ground beside
them.
Kotone asks, confused, “What’s
going on?”
TK says, looking over himself, “You tell
us!” Plenty of the others then notice that those that were
trapped in SAO from the beginnings were in their SAO style
outfits.
Keiko asks, looking at herself, “Why do
we look like in SAO?”
Tai says, looking around, “However, I
don’t think that we are in SAO.”
Mimi asks, “Why do you say that
Tai?”
Palmon says, pointing to the ship that they
were standing on, “I think that’s why Mimi.”
When Mimi looks on the deck of the airship
that they are standing on, Mimi says, a bit embarrassed, “I
see.”
Sailor Celestial asks, “Wait! If we
aren’t in SAO, then we are in a virtual world?”
Sailor Venus says, after making four swipes of
her hand like she was calling up a menu in a VRMMO,
“Nope.”
Sailor Mercury says, with her computer and
visor activated, “This isn’t a virtual world or even a
digital one like the Digi-World. We are in a flesh and blood
universe.”
Davis says, “Toto, we aren’t in
Japan anymore.”
Yolei asks Davis, annoyed,
“Really?”
TK says, with a grin, “You know that
someone was going to make that joke sooner or later.”
Just then everyone hears something and Patamon
says, pointing in one direction, “Everyone!” When
everyone that’s still conscious looks in the direction that
Patamon is pointing to, they look to see a door opening in which
three figures are coming towards them.
Tuxedo Mask says, “We might get our
answers after all.” Soon enough, the group can see the three
figures and they find that they are three young women.
The first one looks to be 19 years of age with
shoulder length brunette hair tied in a long braid that goes down
to her braids, heterochromia eyes with the left eye being blue and
the right eye being green, pink colored lips, and she is wearing
halter-neck top with a strange
symbol across the chest and a pink hood, yellow armbands over her
biceps, a black bracelet on her left wrist, and denim boy shorts.
She carries a pouch on her left hip over an ankle-length blue and
white sash and wears laced knee-high boots.
The second one looks to be 17
years of age with messy and long blond hair that braided and tied
on the top of her head, green eyes with strange spirals in them,
pink colored lips, and she has on a yellow G-string bikini and an
olive green mini-skirt, carrying two pouches at her waist and
ruffle sleeves. A long yellow and red scarf hangs loosely around
her neck.
The third young woman looks to
be 18 years of age with short silver hair, red eyes, and she is
wearing a black leather ensemble complete with high-heeled boots,
elbow-length gloves and a folded top.
The silver haired female asks, having her
sword drawn, “Who are you? How did you get on our
ship?”
Sailor Venus says, nervously, “It is
kind of a long story…a better one if you don’t point
that sword at us.”
The silver haired female says, “A group
of weird people drops down on the ship and says that it is a long
story, huh? I don’t think that you understand your position
here.”
Sailor Celestial says, with a serious tone,
“And I don’t think that you understand yours if you
threaten my friends.”
The silver haired female asks, pointing her
sword towards Sailor Celestial, “Is that a threat?”
Sailor Celestial responds, her eyes hardening,
“No…” Then quick as a flash, the silver haired
woman’s sword is knocked into the air by Sailor
Celestial’s twin swords which are now around the neck of the
silver haired woman causing Sailor Celestial to say, “It is a
result of you not listening to my fair warning.”
The blond haired woman says, shocked,
“Whoa!”
The brunette haired woman says, stunned,
“Paine!” The woman prepares to draw a set of pistols,
but she then sees a blade pointed at her from none other than
Sailor Moon.
Sailor Moon says, “Sorry, but I
can’t have you doing that.”
The blond haired woman says, shocked,
“Yunie!” However, she sees a sword from Sailor Sun in
her face and she says, with a nervous tone, “Ouch.”
Sailor Sun says, a bit nervously,
“Sorry.”
Sailor Celestial asks, “So, are we going
to go through a fight that we are going to lose or are you going to
calm down to talk this over?”
The brunette haired woman says, nervously,
“I think that we should talk.”
The blond haired woman nods her head in a
rapid and nervous manner in which she says, “I agree with
Yunie.” The silver haired woman reluctantly nods her head
causing all three Valkyrie Sailor Scouts to return to their swords
to their sheaths.
Rika says, with a sigh, “Something tells
me that we aren’t in Japan anymore.”
Sakura retorts, sarcastically, “What
give it away?”
Sailor Moon sighs and she thinks in her mind,
“What have we gotten
ourselves into this time?”
(Later
on)
Lying down on a bed, we find Kazuto is slowly
opening his eyes as he looks to see none other than Yui and Strea
looking down at him.
Kazuto asks, “Huh?”
Yui says, excitedly, “Daddy, you are
okay!”
Kazuto asks, weakly, “Yui?
Strea?”
Kazuto yelps as Strea hugs tightly and Strea
says, excitedly, “You are okay! I was so worried!”
Kazuto moans out, “I’m
okay…I’m okay!” When Strea releases Kazuto from
the hug, he asks, “What the? Strea, you look like you did on
SAO!”
Strea says, “Yep!”
Kazuto asks, “Then where…?”
When Kazuto looks around, he finds himself surrounded by plenty of
the others within a place that has several bed and rugs on a
platform overlooking a bar in which he sees Asuna in a deep sleep
on one bed in which Kazuto says, “Asuna!”
Kazuto goes over to Asuna and Serena, looking
exactly like she did as Usagi in SAO, responds, “She’s
okay, Kirito…Kazuto.”
Kazuto says, stunned,
“Usagi…Serena…” Kazuto then looks over
himself and he is shocked to see himself looking like he did as
Kirito in SAO and for a moment, he thinks that he is back in SAO,
but he then sees Naruto, Sakura, Hinata, and the members of the
Digidestined that weren’t trapped in SAO along with all of
the Odiaba Digidestined’s Digimon partners with them.
Serena, knowing what Kazuto is about to ask,
responds, “We’re not back in SAO, Kazuto.”
Kazuto asks, “Then
where…?”
Just then a female voice shouts out,
“Are you okay up there?” Soon after, everyone looks to
see the three females that they met earlier come up to them.
Kazuto asks, “Where are
we?”
Serena responds,
“That’s a long story, Kazuto.” Soon enough,
Kazuto listens in on what’s going on and finds out that he
and the others are in a world known as Spira in which the brunette
is known as Yuna, the blond is known as Rikku, who is known as an
Al Bhed, a race of humans on Spira that are known for their blond
hair and spirals in their green eyes, and Paine, a mysterious
member of the group that Yuna and Rikku belong to: The
Gullwings.
When the explanation is done, Kazuto asks,
“We got transported into another world?”
Suguha, dressed a lot like her ALO avatar of
Leafa, responds, “That’s about the short end it, big
brother.”
Amara says, “It is most likely due to
the fact when Heathcliff hit the Queen’s Gate.”
Kazuto says, remembering, “That’s
right! Kayaba!”
Trista says, “We can’t be sure
what happened to him. The Queen’s Gate suffered a massive
energy surge from Suguha before Serena knocked him into the
gate.”
Hotaru asks Trista, “Could that by why
we have been sent here?”
Trista says, with a plain tone, “I
can’t be sure, Firefly. Remember, Suguha is the Sailor Scout
of Reality and she has incredible power especially since she is a
Valkyrie level Sailor Scout. Her energies coming in contact with
the gate…”
Suguha asks Trista, “Wait! Are you
saying that my powers caused the Queen’s Gate to go
haywire?”
Trista says, “I believe that it could be
part of equation, Suguha.”
Davis says, “Well, I think that Kayaba
slamming into it could be other part.”
Amara says, with a plain tone, “No
kidding.”
Raye says, looking at Serena, “And you
can blame this Meatball Head for creating this problem!” Raye
bonks Serena on the head and she yelps as she holds her head.
Serena says, with a winch,
“Ouch!”
Raye says, annoyed, “Don’t
‘ouch’ me, Meatball Head! What’s the big idea
doing that big ‘self-sacrifice’ play? Geez!”
Serena says, with a solemn sigh, “Sorry,
Pyro. It is just…just…”
Suguha says, with a sigh, “To be honest,
I really don’t blame her.”
Kazuto says, with a sigh, “Same
here.”
Plenty of the others give surprised looks, but
plenty of them also realize their reasoning behind it in which
Serena says, “I trust him. I love him like a second father.
And he takes something that I dreamed of…that plenty of
others dreamed of. A new frontier…and he turned it into a
prisoner…a nightmare. For two long years, I had to watch
people die, turn twisted, and so much more. Something that was
supposed to be fun and adventurous became a battle for survival. He
destroyed my life in one lifetime and scarred my life in this
lifetime. And not just my life…he scarred so many
people’s lives with technology that he could have performed
miracles with. So many good people are dead…and he gets to
come back to cause more trouble?! I…I couldn’t accept
that!” Serena’s hands turn into fists and she says,
“He doesn’t deserve anything after what he has done!
And I…I just wanted him out of my life! His shadow keeps
following me every day…I…I…”
Suguha tells Serena, “I know you feel
Serena.” Serena looks at Suguha and she says, solemnly,
“It was my power that he sought and it was my power that was
used to forge the original Aincrad in the first place. Power of
creation…I keep asking the question: What does it really
create? For the only thing that my power just ‘creates’
is…”
Kazuto tells Suguha, “Sugu, you
can’t think that way.”
Suguha looks at Kazuto and Rika says,
“No kidding, girl.”
Lita says, with a nod, “Yeah!”
Matt says, “Kayaba made his own choices
doing what he did to the Silver Millennium and what he did with
SAO.”
Yolei says, with a nod, “Neither you or
Serena have any responsibility in his choices.”
Ken says, nodding his head in agreement,
“Kayaba did what he did knowing of his ‘past
history’ with you two and he had already considered what he
did in SAO long before he remembered his Silver Millennium past. He
did admit that. Even after he remembered and in fact, knowing about
his ‘connection’ with Suguha and Serena, he still
committed SAO.”
Darien puts his hands on Serena’s
shoulder and he says, when Serena looks at him, “You have to
stop baring his sins, Meatball Head. You can’t let him rule
your life.”
Serena says, with a sigh, “I
know…”
Raye tells Serena, ‘bonking’ her
on the head, “No, buts, Serena!”
Mina says, with a smile, “That’s
right! Now, let’s forget about him!”
Davis says, with a nod, “Right now, we
need to figure out a way to get home.”
Joe says, with a solemn sigh, “Something
tells me that it isn’t going to be easy.”
Gomamon tells Joe, “Come on, Joe!
Don’t be a stick in the mud!”
Mimi says, with a smile, “Yeah, you have
to stay positive.”
Trista says, “Our return home
won’t be so easy. Remember, we were transported here by the
Queen’s Gate.”
Naruto says, “Much like how Hinata,
Sakura, and I came to Earth, believe it.”
Agumon asks, “Didn’t you say that
it was hard to get between worlds when someone goes through the
Queen’s Gate?”
Trista says, with a nod, “Yes, but it
isn’t the only problem. It seems like all the chaotic
energies from Queen’s Gate has cut me off from the Time
Gates.”
Hotaru asks, “You can’t access the
Gates of Time?”
Trista says, with a nod, “No, Firefly.
We are going to need to figure out another way to return to our
world.”
Joe says, with a sigh and solemn tone,
“I thought so.”
Davis says, “Geez, you say like we
aren’t going to get back. We’ve been through tougher
before.”
Tai says, with a nod, “That’s
right. We’ve been through tough scraps in plenty of our
battles and found a way back.”
Agumon says, excitedly,
“Yeah!”
Gatomon says, “Something tells me that
it is going to be quite an adventure.”
Palmon asks, “When have we not been on
such an adventure?”
Davis tells Kazuto, “By the way, dude,
you should know that your girlfriend is a Sailor Scout
now.”
Kazuto asks, surprised,
“What?”
Yui tells Kazuto, “It’s true,
Daddy. Mommy has become a Sailor Scout now.” The others then
explain about Sailor Star and when they were done, Kazuto looks at
the sleeping Asuna with a look of surprise and shock.
(Later
on)
On the bridge of the airship that our heroes
and heroines are on, known as the Celsius, the group, along with
Yuna, Paine, and Rikku, are on the bridge looking at three
people.
The first is a male with green eyes exactly like
Rikku’s eyes, blond Iroquois styled hair, and ears adorned
with multiple earrings. He wears long, gray pants held by
blue-and-red suspenders, and black gloves with iron buttons and
red-and-black cuffs. His chest and arms are heavily
tattooed.
The second person is a dark
skinned male with short blond hair, black goggles over his eyes,
and wearing a dark blue sleeveless vest, blue pants, dark blue
boots on his feet, and dark blue sleeveless around his lower arms
and hands showing his muscular upper arms.
The third person looks to be a
young kid/teen with a mask with an ochre visor, and a brown
full-body suit with lime green mittens. His suit has a blue
collar.
The dark skinned blond says,
“It seems like our guests are awake.”
The light skinned blond haired
male with his hair in a mohawk gives a nervous look and Kazuto
asks, “What happened with him?”
The dark skinned blond responds,
“Oh, Brother tried to reprimand your sister from threatening
Yuna and got his butt handed to him.”
The mohawk male yells out,
“I did not! They just got me by surprise!”
Rikku says, with a smirk,
“And swung you around the bridge like a punching
bag.”
The young kid in the full
bodysuit says, “After he begged for mercy, Buddy managed to
call a truce.”
The mohawk male gives a scowl,
says something in a language that our heroes and heroines
don’t understand, and Paine says, with a smirk,
“That’s why I respect your sister.”
Rikku says, with a grin,
“Big time.”
Kazuto looks at his younger
step-sister/cousin and he thinks in his mind, nervously, “Nice way to leave an
impression, Sugu.”
Keiko asks Asuna, “How are
you feeling Asuna?”
Asuna responds, “I’m
okay, Keiko.”
Rika says, with a grin,
“Well, our ‘Lightning Flash’ is now a ‘star
child’ too.”
Asuna says, with an embarrassed
blush, “Liz!”
Mina says, annoyed, “Well,
all of the ‘new girls’ seem to get Valkyrie level forms
and we’re still stuck in Eternal.”
Lita says, nervously, “Oh,
come on, Mina-chan!”
Suguha says, pointing to Kazuto
and Asuna, “Anyway, this is my big brother, Kazuto Kirigaya,
and his girlfriend, Asuna Yuuki.” Suguha says to Kazuto and
Asuna, “Big brother, the young guy in the bodysuit is Shinra,
the guy in the mohawk is Rikku’s brother, ironically called
Brother, and the last guy is Brother’s best friend,
Buddy.”
Shinra says, “Ah, the
so-called ‘Black Swordsman’ and ‘Lightning
Flash’ that I heard about.”
Kazuto and Asuna are surprised
by this and plenty the others had embarrassed looks in which Kotone
says, a bit nervously, “We had to explain a bit about our
world.”
TK says, nervously,
“Mina-chan explain a bit…much.”
Amara and Raye glare at her and
Raye says, annoyed, “A bit TOO much.”
Mina asks, nervously,
“What?”
Ami says, “Anyway, we
asked Shinra if his world knew anything about the Queen’s
Gate?”
Shinra responds, “There
are a few Al Bhed legends concerning a ‘mystical
Machina’ that allows users to go into other
worlds.”
Asuna asks, “Mystical
Machina?”
Izzy says, “Machina is
what they call machines around here. Over one millennia ago, this
world, Spira, had a lot of advanced technologies like this airship.
And there were huge advanced cities much like ours back
home.”
Yuna says, “That is until
the arrival of Sin.”
Kazuto asks,
“Sin?”
Yuna says, “It was a force
of destruction and death that ruled over Spira for around one
thousand years. It was believed due to the evil of mankind that Sin
was born to punish us.”
Rikku says, “However, a
few years ago, Yunie and I, along with some friends, found out the
truth about Sin. He wasn’t created from all the bad stuff
that mankind did, but the greed and selfishness of one jerk in
particular.”
Yuna tells Rikku, “Well,
Rikku…”
Paine asks Yuna, “Are you
sympathizing with Yu Yevon, Yuna?”
Yuna says, with a nod, “In
a way, yes. However, I can’t condone what Yu Yevon has done
since he put our world through a thousand years of suffering, but
after learning the story, I can’t help to understand why he
did it.”
Asuna asks, “Yu
Yevon?”
Yuna says, “The last ruler
of Zanarkand before it was destroyed. Before Sin, there were two
Machina cities, Bevelle and Zanarkand, and they were fighting in
what was known as the Machina Wars. Bevelle wielded powerful
Machina weapons while Zanarkand had their powerful Summoners,
people that bring forth powerful summons or Aeons as we know them
today. However, Bevelle superior weapons continued to push back
Zanarkand and soon, it will be invaded and destroyed. Yu Yevon, the
last ruler of Zanarkand, knew that the end was near and decided on
a radical action. He gathered the people of Zanarkand and turned
them into Fayth.”
Kazuto asks,
“Fayth?”
Rikku says,
“People’s spirits sealed into stone statues by Yevon
mysticism.”
Asuna asks, shocked,
“People sealed into stone statues?”
Yuna says, with a nod,
“Yes. To allow those spirits to remain in this realm and Yu
Yevon and the people of Zanarkand created a duplicate of Zanarkand
out in the sea off the coast of Spira. A dream give life itself. A
‘Dream Zanarkand’ that reflected the real Zanarkand in
its prime and always at peace. In order to protect this
‘Dream Zanarkand’, Yu Yevon transformed himself into
the fiend that we know as Sin. Yu Yevon became Sin and Sin was his
weapon and armor to protect this Zanarkand. Yu Yevon knew that he
wouldn’t be able to control something as massive as Sin, so,
he made sure that he programmed it…himself to make protect
the ‘Dream Zanarkand’ and destroy any city that grows
too large or has too much advanced Machina.”
Kazuto asks, “So, Yu Yevon
had no conscience control over his own creation?”
Yuna says, nodding her head,
“None at all. The strain of maintain Sin cost him his human
conscience mind. All that was left of Yu Yevon was a being only
made to ‘summon’ Sin and that’s all. In order to
give people of Spira a chance for survival, Yunalesca, Yu
Yevon’s daughter, used the Final Summoning to create a
powerful Aeon known as the Final Aeon which at the time was the
only way to defeat Sin. The Final Aeon was the only force that can
beat Sin and it can only be created by turning someone into the
Fayth of the Final Aeon. However, the people turned into the Fayth
must have a powerful bond with the Summoner: Best friends, family,
or, in the case of Yunalesca, her beloved lover, Zaon. Yunalesca
turned him into the Fayth of the Final Aeon and defeated
Sin.”
Mina asks, “So, it should
have been the end of it?”
Amara says, “I don’t
think so, Mina-chan.”
Yuna says, “No, it
wasn’t. You see, every time that Sin was destroyed, there is
a period of peace, but at the end of that period, Sin is
revived.”
Rika asks, surprised,
“Revived?”
Yuna says, “Yes, you see,
the teaching made it believed that Sin was created by the evils of
mankind and until people completely atone for their actions, Sin
will keep returning until they have completed atone to allow the
Final Aeon to defeat Sin for good. However, the truth is actually
much different. You see, when Sin is defeated, the spirit of Yu
Yevon possesses the Final Aeon and serving the connection between
the Fayth of the Final Aeon and its Summoner which kills the
Summoner in the process. Before we found this out, it was thought
that the Final Aeon was so powerful that the strain of summoning
the Final Aeon was the reason that the Summoner died from using the
Final Summoning, the summoning to bring forth the Final Aeon.
However, this proved untrue, it was the serving of the bond between
the Final Aeon and its Summoner was what did it.”
Rikku says, “And once Yu
Yevon gets his hands on the Final Aeon, it turns the poor Final
Aeon, namely the Fayth turned into the Final Aeon in the hopes of
bringing real peace into the new Sin. However, this process took
some time since Yu Yevon needs to get sufficient control over the
Final Aeon and form Sin all around the Final Aeon as its core. The
time that this took was called the Calm.”
Yuna says, “After Yu Yevon
created Sin and Sin’s first ‘defeat’, the
religion of Yevon formed which formed the belief that
people’s evil in using Machina for things like the Machina
War was what created Sin and that by only ‘repenting
completely’ would Sin go away for good. In fact, it was to
keep the truth about Sin hidden and give people hope to make sure
that they don’t fall into despair.”
Serena says, “A FALSE
hope.”
Yuna says, with a nod,
“That’s right. The temples of Yevon became the dominate
‘power’ over Spira for a thousand years since only the
‘hope’ built on these lies was the only
‘hope’ that they had.”
Rikku says, “Until Yunie,
I, and our friends found out the truth and beat it wide
open!”
Yuna says, “Well, it took
a long journey and I was like many other people that followed the
ways of Yevon until I found out the truth about Yevon and Sin. It
also took a difficult journey to find out the truth and the Fayth
of the other Aeons helped us find Yu Yevon’s spirit to take
him out and destroy Sin for good.” Yuna says, a bit solemnly,
“It also took a lot of sacrifice…much
sacrifice…”
Keiko asks Yuna, curiously,
“Yuna-san?”
Yuna says, with a kind smile,
“I’m okay. Just remembering my
journey.”
Davis asks, “Since the
‘big bad’ is done for, what’s the heroine of this
world doing these days?”
Yuna responds, “I really
wouldn’t call myself a heroine…”
Rikku pokes Yuna in the ribs and
she says, with a grin, “Come on, you said that you wanted to
chance, Yunie! Live life a little! Use that legendary High Summoner
status to the fullest.”
Yuna says, with a sigh,
“Come on, Rikku.”
Rikku says, looking at our
heroes and heroines, “And it looks like we have quite a few
heroes here too. It isn’t every day that we meet people from
other worlds.”
Paine asks, with a plain tone,
“How about NEVER meet people from other worlds,
Rikku?”
Rikku says, with a pout,
“Killjoy.”
Shinra says, “With the truth about Sin
and Yevon exposed, Yevon fell like a stack of cards which
isn’t too surprising. However, with the direction and order
from Yevon lost, Spira was threatening to go into disarray due to
the disillusion of Yevon. However, New Yevon and the Youth League
have formed in their place, but the two sides and their ways of
doing things have often have them come into conflict. New
Yevon’s theme is to do things ‘one thing at time’
and the Youth League to learn the secrets of Spira’s past and
share them with the world in order to better the world. In order to
do that, the Youth League plan to gather spheres. Spheres are
devices that have records of Spira’s history within them
since they have been used for thousands of years. However, the
Youth League’s need for radical reform have put plenty of
people off since many people have been following the same ways for
thousands of years and even with the truth of Yevon exposed, it was
hard for them to handle the changes that are coming with the
‘Eternal Calm’ which is what Yuna’s Calm is being
called.”
Buddy says, “The New Yevon organization
was created in order to help people to adapt the ‘new
world’ caused by Sin’s permanent defeat by Yuna. As
their motto states: ‘One thing at a time’. However, it
is said that they are hording the spheres that contain
Spira’s history and continuing the practices of the former
Yevon faith or so say the opponents of New Yevon. The Youth League,
being filled with the youth of Spira, are said to be ‘thugs
and hooligans’ due to them wanting change and wanting it now.
Can’t really blame them since it became public that their way
of living over hundreds of years was nothing, but a lie.”
Rika says, with a nod, “No
kidding.”
Paine says, “It is the reason that
Sphere Hunter groups like ours were originally formed. We were
created to find the spheres that contain the history of
Spira’s past.”
Shion asks, “So, you are like treasure
hunters and the spheres are the treasure?”
Rikku says, excitedly, “Yep!”
Trista says, “And they may contain our
way home.”
Everyone looks at Trista and Hotaru asks,
“What do you mean Trista-mama?”
Trista says, “This world is steeped in
mysticism, spirituality, and technology. These spheres may contain
information about technology or places where we can find or create
a gateway back to our world.”
There are shocked looks and Serena asks,
“Are you sure, Trista?”
Trista responds, “With my ability to
access the Time Gates gone, I believe that this is our only answer.
Plus, young Shinra did mention that had legends of a ‘magical
machine gateway to other worlds’.”
Shinra says, with a nod, “That’s
right.”
Rikku says, “Oh! That’s an old Al
Bhed legend, Shinra. Pops told us that it was an old tale that the
early Al Bhed created to give them hope of finding a home away from
Sin and the Yevonities.”
Mimi asks, “Why the
Yevonities?”
Yuna says, with a sigh, “The Al Bhed
rejected the ways of Yevon especially when it came to the
restrictions on Machina and the people that followed the ways of
Yevon, who were called Yevonities, which are the mainstream
population of Spira, made the Al Bhed outcasts in society in which
they were despised for rejecting the teachings because it was felt
that they caused more sin causing Sin to keep returning.”
Paine says, “When Yuna and her group
exposed the truth, it was shown that idea was a piece
of…” There are a few coughs from the others in which
Yui and Strea were pointed to and Paine says, plainly,
“…Rubbish.” Rikku giggles at Paine and Paine
punches her in the side causing Rikku to yelp.
Yuna says, with a sigh, “However, that
‘animosity’ still remains with some.”
Buddy says, “Well, what are you going to
do Yuna? It has been part of life for a long time and it
isn’t going to end overnight.”
Rikku says, with a smile, “Yeah, but
people are becoming more accepting of us and we are rebuilding our
society.”
Trista says, “However, with any legend
or myth, there is always a grain of truth with it.”
Michelle asks Trista, “You think that
those legends are connected to the Queen’s Gate?”
Trista says, “I believe so. While we
don’t know what happened to it, we may get some clues if we
find more information. Also, as I have said before, this world is
filled with mysticism, spiritualism, and technology, there might be
a way for us to return home.”
Kotone asks, “You really think
so?”
Davis says, with a grin, “There has got
to be a way! Like I said before, we’ve gotten ourselves out
of plenty of messes before.”
Kari says, with a smile, “I’ve got
to agree with Dai-kun.”
Yolei says, a bit concerned, “But we
aren’t sure how long it will take us to get back.”
Trista says, “That’s true, Yolei.
However, we can’t be sure that the same time will pass here
as back in home. Since we are in a different universe, time may
flow differently here than back on Earth.”
Sakura asks, “So, months could be just
days or even just hours back on Earth?”
Tai says, “It’s possible. Back in
the early days of the Digi-World, we were there for months and
barely minutes passed in the real world.”
Joe says, “That is until we had to
‘reboot’ the Digi-World after our battle with
Apocalymon and then the Digi-World and Real World had similar time
frames from then on.”
Kazuto says, “Anyway, our main
objectives is to survive in this world until we have a way
home.”
Rikku asks, with a grin, “Since you are
going to be stuck here for a while, why not join us?”
Brother yells out, shocked,
“What?!” Brother says, seriously, “No! No! I am
the leader! I get to decide!”
Paine asks, pointing to Suguha and Amara,
“You really want them for possible opponents?
Seriously?”
Brother gives a nervous look, Amara and Suguha
smirk at him, and Brother says, nervously while trying to sound
unconcerned, “Feh! I’m not worried at all…but
they seem to be quite competent, so, I will let them
help.”
Plenty of the others had a look that said
‘Yeah, right’ and Rikku says, excitedly, “Welcome
aboard!”
Brother says, annoyed, “Hey, I’m
the leader here!”
Paine says, with a sigh and annoyed plain
tone, “Give it a rest already.”
Davis asks, “So, where to
first?”
Yuna says, “Actually, there is a little
matter that we need to attend to first.”
Shinra says, “A group has stolen
something from us…namely something from Yuna.”
Keiko asks, curiously, “Is there
something we can do to help?”
Rikku says, with a grin, “Just leave it
to us. No one steals from the Gullwings and gets away with
it.”
July 2025 (Earth time);
Spira
In the second largest city of Spira, Luca, the
port city that’s the home of the stadium for the main sport
of Spira, Blitzball, there is pandemonium as a concert seemly done
by Yuna is interrupted by Paine and Rikku revealed that the
‘Yuna’ on the stage was a fake in which Rikku and Paine
had to fight a small legion of masked goons chasing all over Luca
port until they were confronted a by short obese shield wielding
male named Omni and a tall gun wielding male known as Logos causing
Paine and Rikku to fall in which the real Yuna appears, guns
blazing, leaps in to aid her friend and put Omni and Logos
down.
When they are defeated, a female voice says,
“That’s quite enough sniveling boys.” Just then
the fake Yuna, wearing an outfit consisting of a blue top, brown
skirt, brown boots that nearly reach her knees, and blue
‘sleeves’ around her arms (A/N: Yuna’s Songstress
Dressphere.), walks over. Fake Yuna says, in a different female
voice to Yuna, “Persistent, aren’t you?”
Yuna says, “My grid.”
Rikku says, angrily, “You give us
Yunie’s Garment Grid right now!”
Fake Yuna retorts, “Didn’t you
girls ever learn to share?”
Yuna says, irritated, “Give it
back!”
Fake Yuna says, “Very well, it’s
yours.” Fake Yuna took off something and throws it into the
air, but it was caught by Valkyrie Sailor Celestial.
Sailor Celestial says, “Got
you!”
Fake Yuna, as she starts to
‘transform’, yells out, shocked, “What
the?!”
Sailor Celestial says, throwing the
‘object’ to Yuna, “Here you go.”
Yuna catches the ‘object’ and she
responds, with a smile, “Thanks.” On the meanwhile,
Fake Yuna’s ‘transformation’ is complete and
shows that she is another female figure.
This female looks to be a young woman with
a round
face with purple eyes and short, blonde hair. She wears a
pink-purple robe that exposes her chest and a tattoo as well as her
right thigh. The robe has a high, curved collar with tassels, and
long sleeves reminiscent of a Japanese furisode kimono, the
cuffs separated from the ends of the sleeves by white crisscrossed
material. She wears thigh-high stockings of the same color and
purple ankle boots. Blue and white triangular and swirl patterns
decorate her attire. She wields a red-and-silver fan in her right
hand.
The woman that was a duplicate
of Yuna says, “But it won’t be long for yours
love!”
Sailor Celestial says, landing
on the ground, “Want to bet? You don’t look so
tough!”
The woman responds,
“I’m tougher than a flying freak like
you!”
Sailor Celestial says, with a
grin, “Where did you get that comeback from? Lame, just like
you!”
The woman yells out, strongly,
“We’ll see!” The woman attacks Sailor Celestial
with her fan, but Sailor Celestial blocks the woman’s attacks
with her swords with ease. Yuna then transforms into the outfit
that the woman was using earlier and used an attack known as
Darkness Dance to blind
the woman causing her to wildly strike everywhere in which Sailor
Celestial uses this chance to strike back with a combo flame attack
to her causing her to yelp, a shocking assault, no pun intended,
with lightning style strike, and a finally, a spin kick that sends
the woman flying backwards back into Ormi and Logos.
Immediately, the woman, once she
can see, starts to run off and she yells out, “Next time, you
won’t be so lucky, loves!”
As Ormi and Logos escape with
the woman, Rikku yells out, starting to follow, “Get back
here!”
However, Paine looks behind her
and she then says, “Rikku.” When Rikku and Sailor
Celestial look, they find Yuna dancing all over the
place.
Sailor Celestial asks, a bit
nervously, “I know that you are glad to get your stuff back,
but is this really the time?”
Yuna says, unable to help
herself to laugh excitedly, “I’m sorry…but I
can’t…control myself…” Yuna continues to
dance due to something controlling her body, the Celsius pulls up
to port.
July 2025 (Earth time); Spira,
Celsius
On board the Celsius, everyone is assembled
around Yuna as Rikku, Paine, Yuna, and Suguha explain what
happened.
When they were done, Rikku says, with a smirk,
“It seems like you were having a good time.”
Yuna says, “I was. It felt like some
other person’s excitement just took over.”
Shinra says, “That’s what could
happen when you use the Garment Grid. The emotions of the person
recorded in the sphere pass onto the user.”
Izzy asks, “So, the feelings of the
person in the sphere could overtake the user of the
sphere?”
Shinra says, “Exactly.”
Rikku asks, “Isn’t that
dangerous?”
Shinra says, “I can’t really
say.”
Buddy says, “It is your
invention.”
Shinra says, “I’m just a
kid.”
Rika says, “A kid genius,
pal.”
Brother coughs and he says, “Dancing
Yuna. I want to see.”
Davis tells Brother, deadpanning, “Dude,
that’s wrong on so many levels.”
Brother glares at Davis and Ami tells Shinra,
“Maybe I can help to make sure that we don’t have more
‘incidents’ like the one with Yuna.”
Shinra says, “Be my guest. In fact, I
would like to discuss with you and Izzy.”
Izzy asks, curiously,
“Really?”
Shinra says, “Yes. Let’s just say
that learning about your world’s technology has given me a
few ideas and I am thankful for the scans that you allowed me to
take of a few pieces of technology.”
Yolei thinks in her mind, a bit nervously,
“I just wonder if it
was a good idea.”
July 2025 (Earth time); Spira, Mount
Gagazet
On top of the tallest mountain in Spira, Mount
Gagazet, we find ourselves at mysterious ruins around the peaks of
the mountain where Yuna, Rikku, and Paine land on a railing
extending from the main ruins, but a look down causes a dizzy spell
for Yuna and she falls over.
Rikku and Paine say in unison, shocked,
“Yuna!” However, Sailor Star catches her and puts her
on the railing with Rikku and Paine supporting her for a few
moments.
Sailor Star asks Yuna, concerned, “Are
you okay, Yuna?”
Yuna says, with a nod, “Yes, I’m
okay. Thank you.”
Sailor Star says, with a nod, “No
problem.”
Rikku says, with a smile, “It seems like
you are used to your new powers.”
Sailor Star says, with a bit of nervous smile,
“I’m still getting used to the fact that I’m a
Sailor Scout.”
Yuna asks, “Where are the
others?”
Sailor Star says, “They are waiting up
ahead. We, all, can’t fit on there.”
Paine says, “And not all of us can fly
or have friends that can do the same.”
Yuna says, “Let’s go. The others
are waiting for us.” Yuna, Rikku, and Paine head over until
they find an elevator type Machina and activates it in which it
seems to start off nice and slow causing Yuna to say, “I
wonder how safe it is…” Just then all three of them
scream as it then plunges down fast before it comes to a screeching
halt. Yuna says, woozily, “It stopped…”
Sailor Star floats down and she asks,
concerned, “Are you all okay?”
Rikku says,
“Disasterrific…” After dealing with
Brother’s frantic call on their intercoms, Yuna, Rikku, and
Paine with Sailor Star join up with the others in which they see
Kazuto, Kotone, Keiko, and Rika dealing with some fiends using
their weapons and Sword Skills.
Kotone says, “It is good that we have
our Sword Skills in this world.”
Keiko asks, curiously, “But how come we
have them in this world?”
Kazuto says, “Most likely, it has to do
with the Queen’s Gate.”
Sailor Pluto says, “However, beyond
that, we can’t be sure.”
Sailor Sun says, “We should get
going.” Our group gets going until they hear a female yelp
from behind them.
Yuna asks, as she turns around,
“Who’s there?”
The group sees then sees the blond haired
woman that’s their leader of the group that Yuna, Rikku, and
Paine along with Sailor Celestial fought earlier in which she says,
“Leblanc. Remember that name well, loves.”
Yuna says, “Ah, the thief.”
The woman, Leblanc, retorts, “Whatever
do you mean. That’s what I hate about
amateurs…”
Rikku says, “Maybe she will go away if
we ignore her.”
Sailor Jupiter says, “Don’t count
on it.”
Leblanc yells out, annoyed, “You! I
heard that! Just as I was saying: Amateurs! They have no concept of
what it takes to be a true sphere hunter.”
Sailor Moon asks, “A ‘true sphere
hunter’ steals another sphere hunter’s sphere like a
common thief?”
Leblanc yells out, angrily, “Watch that
pigtails!”
Yolei asks, “By the way, weren’t
you following us?”
Leblanc responds, “Following? A mere
coincidence.”
Ormi and Logos come up in which Ormi says,
“You were right, boss, as always.”
Logos says, “Yes. Following them has
paid off.”
Yuna and Rikku giggle and Sailor Uranus asks,
with a sly smirk, “Mere coincidence, huh?”
Leblanc says, annoyed, “Laugh while you
can.”
Sailor Venus asks, confidently, “Three
of you against all of us?”
Leblanc retorts, with a sly smirk, “Who
said that we came alone?” Just then everyone hears noises
from behind them in which they look to see a legion of
Leblanc’s ‘goons’, male and female, along with
what looks like giant robot snakes with Gatling Guns for heads.
Sailor Mars tells Sailor Venus, annoyed,
“You had to say it, Venus.”
Sailor Venus sticks out her tongue and rubs
her scalp nervously in which Tuxedo Mask says, “We’ll
take care of them. The three of you can handle the
leadership.”
Yuna says, with a nod,
“Understood.” As Yuna, Rikku, and Paine face off
against Leblanc, Ormi, and Logos, the rest of our group face off
against Leblanc’s ‘foot soldiers’.
Sailor Saturn asks, “What are those
creatures?”
Sailor Mercury says, “They must be some
kind of robot weapons.”
Davis says, plainly, “It is kind of
obvious since they have freaking Gatling Guns for heads!”
Our group get into defensive stances and
Sailor Orion says, “Here they come!” Soon after,
Leblanc’s male soldiers, wearing green uniforms with
claw-like weapons, while the female soldiers unleash different
elemental magic spells at them with the ‘gun snakes’,
known as Recoils, are firing tons of rounds at the others causing
them to spread out. While the majority of our heroes and heroines
fight against the male soldiers, Sailor Orion takes to the skies to
take shots against the female soldiers and Recoils, destroying the
Recoils, and knocking out the female spellcaster soldiers.
Naruto says, “Okay, I’ve had
enough of this!” Naruto then performs his classic Multi-Shadow Clone Jutsu and much
to the surprise of Leblanc’s soldiers, Naruto creates a
legion of Shadow Clones that help beat Leblanc’s troops back
as Yuna, Rikku, and Paine beat Leblanc and her two lieutenants,
namely Ormi and Logos. When they were done, the others rejoin Yuna,
Rikku, and Paine, who have already beaten Leblanc, Ormi, and
Logos.
Leblanc says, “And this is the thanks
for going soft on you.” She then throws a group of smoke
bombs on the ground creating a large cloud of smoke.
Yuna says, annoyed, “Hey!”
Rikku asks, annoyed, “Who does she think
she is?”
Paine says, annoyed, “She is getting
hurt.” Sailor Uranus uses her wind powers to blow the smoke
away and everyone looks to see Leblanc and her lieutenants heading
into an entrance of a cave.
Davis says, “Let’s go after
them!” Immediately, our heroes and heroines follow Leblanc
and her group in which they are attacked by various fiends,
monsters that are created from the tortured souls of people that
died ‘unnatural deaths’ and the pain and anguish from
their unnatural deaths twist them into these monsters, but when
they get to the entrance, Logos leaps out and snaps his fingers
causing our group to get attacked by another squad of minions.
Logos asks, sarcastically, “You look a
tad flush. Why not stop to catch your breath?”
As Logos dashes away, Sailor Jupiter yells
out, annoyed, “How about I kick your butt when I get
you?”
Sailor Moon says, “Later,
Jupiter-chan.” The squad sent against them…Well,
let’s just say that it wasn’t a challenge and call it
that. The group goes through the man-made cavern with lights and
have quite a few fights with some more fiends, but they
aren’t much of a challenge. Once outside of the cavern, they
head down a path until Ormi stops them with another group of
goons.
Ormi says, “Let’s show the ladies
and their weirdo friends a nice warm welcome.”
As Ormi runs off, Yolei yells out, “Look
who’s talking you blob!”
Sailor Star tells Yolei, “We need to
focus Yolei.”
Rika says, with a grin, “We won’t
need to. Goons are always too easy.”
One of Leblanc’s female goons retorts,
“We’ll see about that brat!”
Rika tells Keiko, with a grin, “Hey,
Keiko, let’s try out our new tricks!”
Keiko asks, curiously,
“Really?”
Mimi asks, “Are you sure?”
Rika says, with a grin, “It will be just
fine!” Keiko gives a hesitant nod and the two of them as the
two of them ‘change outfits’.
Rika’s new outfit looks like pink and
cherry red version of Asuna’s Knights of the Blood outfit
with what looks like the Dark Repulser attached to her back with
mace that has a silver handle and a head made of prism-like
crystal.
Keiko’s outfit looks to be a red and
white version of Kotone’s outfit from SAO with dark blue
version of Rikku’s twin daggers.
Mimi says, amazed, “Wow!”
Rikku says, with a grin, “You, girls,
look like you are getting serious!”
Rika says, with a grin, “No kidding!
Now, take a look at this!”
“Fire Masher!”
Rika’s mace gets covered in flames and
she uses against one of the Recoils that are attacking them and
destroys it while Keiko uses her Thief Dressphere’s thieving
abilities to take items from her opponents while the rest take them
out.
When they are done, Keiko asks, “Is it a
good idea to take their items?”
Rikku says, with a grin, “Don’t
worry! They won’t need them!”
Paine says, plainly, “In the
infirmary.” The group continues on encountering more fiends
and more of Leblanc’s ‘soldiers’ along the way
until they reach a point where they find Leblanc hanging off a
railing with Logos hanging off of her with Ormi hanging on
Logos.
Yolei says, with a smirk, “What do we
have here? I don’t know what to call this.”
Sailor Uranus asks, with a grin, “Ironic
justice?”
Sailor Neptune says, with a smile,
“Uranus-chan…”
Leblanc asks, annoyed and nervous tone in her
voice, “Would you stop staring?”
Sailor Venus says, with a shrug,
“Okay!”
As our heroes and heroines start to move off,
Keiko asks, “Is it okay to leave her there?”
Rikku says, with a smile, “Don’t
worry! She will be just fine!”
Gatomon says, “I get the feeling that
she is just like your typical comedy relief villainess and she
won’t die so easily.”
Tai says, with a nod, “Yep! We’re
going to be seeing her again.” The group ventures on until
they arrive at the top of the ruins where there is a large open
area leading to a door for some kind of chamber in which they
stop.
Mimi asks, “Why did we stop?”
Kazuto says, plainly, “We aren’t
alone.”
Sailor Celestial says, with a nod,
“We’ve got company.”
Sailor Jupiter asks, “Where?”
Sailor Moon, Sailor Celestial, and Kazuto look up in which when
everyone else does so, they see a massive crab-like find hanging on
the roof of the room up ahead.
Rikku says, nervously, “Figures that we
run into something like this.”
Paine says, seriously, “It comes!”
The massive crab-like fiend, known as Boris, lashes out with its
claws at Rikku, but Sailor Sun blocks with her armored arms.
Rikku says, “Thanks!”
Sailor Sun says, with a smile, “No
problem!” Keiko uses her Thief Dressphere’s ability to
get some Gil, Spiran money, from Boris while Rikku uses her Thief
Dressphere’s abilities to steal items from the fiend.
“Spiral Twister!”
“Pepper Breath!”
Agumon and Biyomon help out with their attacks
and cause some minor damage to the fiend.
Agumon says, “That guy is
tough.”
“Vee-Head Butt!”
Veemon leaps at Boris at high speed and slams
his forehead into Boris causing him to stumble back slightly.
Davis says, with a grin, “Good job
buddy!” However, Boris then unleashes some kind of stick
thread that wraps up Yuna, Rikku, Kotone, and Yolei.
Yolei yells out, “Yuck! What is this
stuff?”
Hawkmon says, “My words!
Yolei!”
Yolei says, nervously, “A little help
please!”
Sailor Celestial shouts out, “Hey, crab
legs!” Boris turns to Sailor Celestial only to get blasted by
her railguns before getting kicked in the face causing Boris to get
distracted which allowed the others to free Yuna, Rikku, Kotone,
and Yolei.
Yuna says, “Thank you.”
Matt says, plainly, “No
problem.”
Mimi says, “Hmm, let me try
something.” Mimi’s outfit then transforms into an
outfit that resembles Yuna’s Songstress Dressphere that she
retrieved from Leblanc back in Luca expect that it is green where
Yuna’s Songstress Dressphere is blue.
Sailor Saturn asks, “What are you
doing?” Mimi then uses a Darkness Dance to blind Boris and
he lashes out wildly.
Rikku says, excitedly, “Way to
go!”
Yolei says, “Great job, Mimi!”
Mimi gives a grin and Sailor Celestial says,
“Let’s do it every one!” Our group then unleashes
an all-out assault on Boris and the massive fiend crashes to the
ground as he turns into hundreds of pyrefiles to signal its
defeat.
The door to the chamber then opens and Kotone
says, “It’s opening!”
Rikku asks, excitedly, “What are we
waiting for?” The group enters the chamber in which they find
a platform containing a sphere.
Kotone says, amazed, “Wow.”
Yuna says, excitedly, “Found it.”
Just then the group hears footsteps behind them and they look to
see Leblanc and her two ‘associates’ stumble into the
room.
Leblanc says, “It’s obvious to the
trained eye. That sphere is a dud. Perfect for the
Dullwings.”
As Leblanc and her group leave, Sailor Orion
says, plainly, “Sore loser.”
Yolei says, with a nod, “Yep.”
Kotone takes the sphere and Yuna says,
excitedly, “We’ll be taking this.”
July 2025 (Earth time); Spira,
Celsius
Back aboard the Celsius, the group has looked
at the sphere that they retrieved and looks to be a video game of
someone walking down a crowded street in Zanarkand talking about
getting a ticket, obviously to some kind of show, and shaking
someone’s hand which is most likely the star of the show.
Yuna asks, “Think it is worth
anything?”
Rikku says, “It isn’t very
exciting.”
Paine says, plainly, “Junk.”
Izzy says, “Maybe to you, but this
sphere is around one thousand years old. We can confirm that it
came from Zanarkand before it was destroyed.”
Shinra says, with a nod, “Most
likely.”
Keiko asks, “What do you think that they
were talking about?”
Rika says, “It sounds like he was going
to some kind of show or concert.”
Kazuto says, with a nod, “I think so
too. And ‘shaking her hand’ may be most likely the star
of the concert.”
Mina says, excitedly, “Maybe he is
talking about some kind of Zanarkand idol!”
Serena says, with a nod, “Maybe,
Mina-chan.”
Tai says, “Well, I think that sphere
hunter and ‘enthusiasts’ around would like spheres that
have a little more ‘meat’ on them.”
Cody says, with a nod, “They are looking
for ancient knowledge or ancient historical events. This could be
about a historical event, but until we get spheres that are linked
with this one, there is just too little information.”
Shinra says, “True. But we can use this
as a Dressphere.”
Rika asks, curiously,
“Really?”
Shinra says, “A Black Mage
Dressphere.”
Kazuto says, “The kind that can use
elemental magic.”
Shinra says, “Correct.”
Rika says, with a grin, “Now, you are
talking.”
Asuna says, with a sigh, “Oh,
boy.”
Suguha says, with a sigh, “It looks like
we have a long way to go, big brother.”
Kazuto says, with a smile, “True,
Sugu.”
Naruto says, with a grin, “Hey!
We’ll find a way back, believe it!”
Hinata says, with a nod, “Right,
Naruto-kun.” Sakura and Serena nod their heads in agreement
with Serena nuzzling up against Darien in which our heroes and
heroines look out into the Spiran skies ready for their adventures
in this brand new world.
The
End…For Now
We have told the tale of what happened when
our heroes and heroines first got to Spira in the first place and
you already know how this ends. However, this is just the first of
their ‘Spiran Stories’, but you are going to have to
wait and see what comes next in which how they found a way to get
home, everyone! Later and best wishes, Crossover Fans!
