Sailor Moon Online: SAO Beyond

(Sword Art Online opening music ‘Innocence’ starting)

As a group of rainbow colored birds fly through the air, witnessed by Naruto, Davis, and Asuna, the scene switches to Suguha, Serena, and Kazuto walking down the street, they turn around when they ‘sense’ something and the world around them shatters like a mirror revealing multiple alternate versions of them and the worlds of SAO, ALO, and beyond.

The next scene shows our heroes and heroines looking at the prone form of Suguha, dressed in ‘royal gown/dress’ as Princess Selene, lying in her see-through coffin with tears in the eyes of Kazuto, Naruto, and Serena in which the scene switches Naruto, dressed in his classic attire, but with white cloak similar to his dad’s cloak as Hokage while looking into the wind.

The next scene has Serena looking at her broach and then walking through the hallways of the Moon Kingdom dressed as Princess Serenity and as she looks into the air, her shadow splits into two shadows with one of them looking like her as Valkyrie Sailor Moon and the other looks like Heathcliff.

The following scene has Darien looking at a rose while his ‘alternate forms’ of Tuxedo Mask and Prince Endymon are behind him and then we see Davis looking at two tags that contain the Crest of Miracles and Life when he feels a hand on shoulder in which he looks to see Kari, Veemon, Gatomon, and the rest of the Digidestined and their Digimon looking at him.

The next scene has Leafa stand in the middle a very swallow pond surround by the images of her four ‘doppelgangers’ as Sailor Celestial reflected in the water of the pond as a rainbow light comes from the sky in which when she looks up towards it, she then sees the rest of her friends in their ALO avatars and Leafa smiles as she approaches them transforming into Ark Valkyrie Sailor Celestial in the process.

Then we find our heroes and heroines battling through legions of robots, monsters, and fighting even multiple version of Heathcliff before out of some kind of vortex, Ragnarök appears before all of them with a roar of power and hatred. Various warriors, heroes, and ‘other people’ from the multiverse ranging from Sonic the Hedgehog, Shiroe of Log Horizon, Kite from Dot-hack series, Neptune, Nepgear, and their fellow CPUs/CPU Candidates from Neptunia series, Iron Man, Captain America, Hulk, and others from the Marvel universe, Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, and so many others from the DC Universe, and so many more before it focuses on Doctor Ivo ‘Eggman’ Robotnik surrounded by the seven Chaos Emeralds and a mysterious and powerful crystal which reality all around it seem to shatter like a mirror.

Valkyrie Sailor Moon, Kazuto, and the others extend their hands to Sailor Celestial and she takes them as they look at what looks like a giant book in which in the pages, there are pictures of various different versions of all of them and Leafa is holding a smaller version of that same book and reading it to Rain, Seven, Yuuki, Strea, and Yui.

Finally, we return to see Suguha, Serena, and Kazuto at that same street in which Suguha closes that same book and turn to see all of their friends/family/loved ones waving towards them causing the three of them to run over towards them as the rainbow-colored birds create a rainbow in the sky.

Act 1: Sword Art Realities

Chapter 6: Reality of the Cyber Maze

Early June 2026, SMO-2 Universe, Unknown location

Somewhere within the SMO-2 universe, we find Doctor Eggman working on something as Yuuko, in her ‘Cyborg Sailor Celestial form’, walks into the room.

Yuuko asks, “Progress?”

Doctor Eggman says, with a plain tone, “Who do you think that you are talking to? Yes, there is progress.”

Yuuko says, with a plain tone, “Good. I’ll be getting a piece of the crystal soon enough.”

Doctor Eggman says, “We aren’t going to just need the crystals shards.”

Yuuko says, “You said that since the Chaos Emeralds were exposed to her energies that they would be easy to find.”

Doctor Eggman responds, “I didn’t say that they would be ‘easy’, per say. What I meant is that we would be able to tell that it is the emeralds since they will be giving off similar energy signatures.”

Yuuko says, with a plain tone, “As you say, Eggman-dono.” Doctor Eggman gives a glare at Yuuko, knowing that she is calling him ‘Eggman-dono’ to taunt him, but he doesn’t take the bait.

Early June 2026, SMO-2 Universe, Earth, Unknown realm

Somewhere on this universe’s Earth, we find our heroes and heroines with the Sailor Scouts and Digidestined, humans and Digimon partners, of this universe are looking at a vast area that looks like a futuristic version of Tokyo that’s abandoned with a good portion filled with trees, shrubs, and whatnot.

Davis says, amazed, “Whoa!”

Veemon says, with a nod, “I’ll say.”

Tuxedo Mask asks, “Is this…?”

Sailor Celestial says, with a nod, “Welcome to the Middle-verse.”

Mimi says, amazed, “Wow.”

Sora says, with a nod of her head, “I’ll say.”

Biyomon says, nodding her head in agreement, “It is.”

Davis says, “Don’t be fooled. This is just like the American Wild West.”

Tai says, nodding his head in agreement, “No joke, Davis.”

Sailor Saturn says, amazed, “It is incredible.”

Sailor Uranus asks Sailor Mercury, “Mercury, do you have a lock on the fragment?”

Sailor Mercury activates her visor and computer and she says, “One moment.” Sailor Mercury then starts to scan the realm using her visor and computer in which she is silent for about a minute.

When the minute has passed, Sailor Moon asks, “How is it, Mercury?”

Sailor Mercury replies, “It’s here. Thanks to the program developed by Izzy, Washu, and I, the fragment is in this realm.”

Sonic says, “Cool.”

Tails asks, “Do you have an idea where the fragment can be?”

Sailor Mercury replies, with a sigh, “No, Tails. Because of the space-time distortion that it causes, I can’t get an exact location.”

Sonic says, pointing to Sailor Uranus and SMO-2 universe counterpart, “Maybe these two and I should speed along and search. These two aren’t near my speed, but they can keep up pretty good.”

Sailor Uranus tells Sonic, “Oh, it is on, hedgehog.”

Sailor Uranus says, with a nod, “You got that right, sister.”

Both versions of Sailor Neptune say in unison, with a kind yet dangerous tone in her voice, “Uranus-chan…” Both versions of Sailor Uranus give nervous yelps and Sailor Saturn looks at her counterpart with Sailor Saturn sighing and shrugging her shoulders.

Sailor Mercury says, “Maybe Tails-san, your Izzy and mine, and the two of us should combine our computer power.”

Tails says, with a nod, “That might help.”

Izzy says, nodding his head in agreement, “Good idea.” Izzy nods his head in agreement in which the Digidestined of Knowledge of this universe along with his counterpart, Tails, and both versions of Sailor Mercury combines the processing power of the computers that they had to get a better idea of the position of the Energist fragment.

After several minutes, Sakura asks them, “How does it look?”

Izzy replies, “We are getting a better idea, but it isn’t easy. This world seems to be effected by the fragment.”

Izzy says, “And it is already an ‘unstable place’ already. This fragment is causing the ‘barriers’ to warp even more.”

Sailor Celestial says, “That’s not good. If they warp too much, they could break and all four ‘realms’, the digital, virtual, physical, and this place could ‘blend’ together.”

Kazuto says, plainly, “That’s not a good thing.”

Sailor Mars says, plainly, “No kidding.”

Sailor Venus asks Sailor Celestial, curiously, “So, how did you get into this line of business?” Sailor Celestial glares at Sailor Venus and she says, nervously, “Just asking.”

Sailor Uranus says, plainly, “You must have researched the history of our world, so, you know how our Sailor Celestial got into ‘this business’.”

Sailor Venus says, nervously, “I know, but I was trying to ‘break the ice’…”

Sailor Jupiter tells Sailor Venus, with a nervous smile, “Maybe that’s not a good idea.”

Kazuto says, “Sugu…”

Sailor Celestial says, “I’m not your Suguha, Kazuto. And you aren’t my big brother.”

Rika says, with a winch, “Ouch.”

Izzy then says, “We’ve got something.”

Mimi asks, curiously, “You do?”

Sailor Mercury says, with a nod, “Yes. We are going to display it.” Just then a 3-D holographic map of the area is shown in which two marks are shown.

Sailor Mercury says, pointing to one spot, “This is where we are.”

Tails says, pointing to the other spot on the holographic map, “And that’s the area where the fragment should be. That’s where we are detecting the energy and temporal signature of the Energist fragment.”
Sonic says, excitedly, “All right, I’m there!”

Sailor Celestial says, “Hold it, speedy! This place is more unforgiving than what you have been used to in your world!”

Sonic asks, with his classic sly confident tone, “Oh, how do you figure that?!”

Sailor Venus says, “You are a famous video game character in our world, too, Sonic-san.”

Davis says, with a nod, “No joke! And trust me, I’ve played plenty of Sonic the Hedgehog games and trust me, this place is at another level.”

Sally Acorn says, with a sigh, “Don’t try it. You are just going to encourage him.”

Sonic says, excitedly, “Yeah, I love a good challenge!”

Sailor Uranus says, “Well, we could fly over there…”

Sailor Celestial says, interrupting Sailor Uranus, “Don’t think about it. Take a look up there.” Everyone looks up in the sky and they see a massive storm that also looks like kaleidoscope with Sailor Celestial says, explaining, “The whole of the skies is the border between this place and Digital World, various virtual worlds, and the ‘physical world’. You get stuck in that storm and you will be ripped apart in which your digitized particles will be spread all over these worlds.”

Plenty of the others flinch from that and Sailor Venus says, nervously, “Yipe!”

Yolei says, nervously, “Brutal!”

Sailor Sun says, “No joke, Yolei.”

Yolei says, “No kidding.”

Matt says, “So, it is best that you follow our direction and stay close.”

Mimi asks, curiously, “You can come here?”

Mimi says, with a smile, “Yep. Since we are Digidestined, we are allowed here.”

Davis says, plainly, “But not as tourists. We have a job to do.”

Tai says, nodding his head, “No joke, Davis. The fate of many ‘worlds’ are at stake.”

Sailor Celestial says, displaying a hand-held device around her armored left wrist, “Got that right. I need the information downloaded into this.”

Izzy says, “You got it.”

Yolei asks, curiously, “What is that?”

Sailor Celestial responds, “A ‘leftover’ of my ‘death game’.” This got the attention of plenty of our heroes and heroines and Sailor Celestial says, looking at the device as it projects the holographic map, “Okay, I got it. Follow me, everyone.”

Sonic says, annoyed, “Sounds like a boring ‘slow fest’ to me.”

Sailor Celestial gives a really annoyed look and Sally says, hitting Sonic on his head, “Cut it out, Sonic! She knows this place and we don’t!”

Sonic says, giving a bored look, “Whatever. You know that slow isn’t the way that I go, Sally.” Sally shakes her head at Sonic’s usual attitude and antics as everyone in the massive group takes off to head for the location in this ‘Middle-verse’ where the Energist crystal fragment is located.

Early June 2026, SMO-2 Universe, Unknown location

Within an unknown location in the SMO-2 universe, we find ourselves at an unknown location where a group of figures are assembled together. The location is very dark, and we can only see the outlines revealed that they are under hooded cloaks.

One of them says, in a male voice, “Just like you foresaw.”

Another one of the cloaked figures says, in a male voice, “Of course.”

The first cloaked figure to speak says, “Leave to nutjobs like them to threat the multiverse’s complete and utter destruction.”

The second cloaked figure says, “Yuuko, this one, is no longer human and she doesn’t care who gets as well as she doesn’t care if her actions are hypocritical to even her own beliefs.”

The first cloaked figure says, “She is rotten ass villain. What do you expect? But I have to admit that this version of Yuuko Kamishimo is a real piece of work.”

The second cloaked figure says, “They should have taken care of her once and for all the instant that she showed herself to be a threat to all people.”

The first cloaked figure says, “You know the history between her and Suguha Kirigaya and it seems to be the same story all over the multiverse.”

The second cloaked figure says, “Indeed. She really knows how to pick them.”

The first cloaked figure says, “She may be ‘harder’ than your typical version of Meatball Head and her brother, but she can be as open-hearted as both of them.”

The second cloaked figure responds, with a nod, “You got that right. Why do you think that she is close friends with that poor little guy, Shinichi Nagata? She must have a thing for ‘hard luck cases’.”

The first cloaked figure says, “It shows that she and Meatball Head are quite alike.”

A third cloaked figure asks, “So, what’s the plan?”

The second cloaked figure responds, “The plan remains the same.” The group of figures nod their heads in which all of them teleport away leaving no evidence that they were at all.

Early June 2026, SMO-2 Universe, Earth, Digital Middle-verse

Within the area known as the ‘Digital Middle-verse’, which looks like a futuristic area that’s abandoned and filled with various creatures, not just Digimon, but creatures that look similar to ‘monsters’ found in all sorts of games including ‘flying eyeballs’, ‘mini-dragons’, ‘slimes’, and otherwise in which we find a familiar ‘blue blur’ zipping by them or using the familiar Homing Attack or Spin Dash Attack to defeat them causing them to dispel into data pixels.

Sonic briefly stops, looks behind him to see Sailor Uranus and her SMO-2 counterpart flying through the air, and Sonic shouts out, in his typical manner, “Hey, slowpokes, move it!”

Sailor Uranus says, annoyed, “You only got ahead since we got delayed by those goofball Tankmon!”

Sailor Uranus yells out, annoyed and nodding her head in agreement, “No joke! They managed to get lucky and forced us to slow down!”

Sonic responds, with a sly smirk, “Slowpokes make excuses while go-getters just go! Later!” Sonic prepares to zip off in his typical manner only for him to yelp as he trips and falls to the ground on his waist where we see his legs bound by something that looks like very long shoelaces causing both versions of Sailor Uranus to get confused until they yelp as they are trapped in a cage that seemly appears out of nowhere.

Just then a familiar female voice yells out, sternly, “Now, do I have your attention?!” Both versions of the Sailor Scout of Wind look over to see Sailor Celestial, with a cross look on her face, as she goes over to them causing them to say, in a stern tone, “What did I freaking say to you when we came here?! And you take off like that!” Sailor Celestial snaps her fingers, releasing both version of Sailor Uranus from the cage, and Sonic’s legs are unbound as the others arrive on the scene.

Sally tells Sailor Celestial, with a sigh, “Don’t even try, Miss Celestial. It is like trying to stop the sun from shining.”

Sailor Celestial asks, nervously, “Could you not call me ‘miss’, please, Sally-san?”

Sailor Venus says, “Man, girl! You are high-strung!”

Sailor Venus retorts, with a nod, “No joke, sister!”

Sailor Moon says, “Well, she has her reasons.”

Tai says, “This place is so different from the Digital World that we know.”

Cody says, “That’s because that this area is an unexplored region of the Digital World and it seems to be closer to the ‘cyber-space’, the internet or world-wide, where all of the computers and electronic devices of our world are interconnected especially MMO worlds including VRMMO worlds.”

Izzy asks, “So, that’s why there are more than Digimon here?”

Izzy responds, “That’s right. But their intelligence varies from what you see ‘basic game monsters’ do to something equal to intelligent Digimon.”

Matt says, “That means that this place is very dangerous especially with the environment around here.”

Matt says, with a nod of his head, “I’ll bet.”

Sonic says, with a scoff, “What’s life without a bit of danger? And these ‘monsters’ look slow as molasses.”

Sailor Celestial retorts, “Says the hedgehog that’s about to get a life lesson.”

Sonic gives a confused look and Tails shouts out, concerned, “Sonic, watch out!” Sonic turns around only to yelp as he gets hit by blue slime by what looks like a cartoon/game wraith that gives comedic giggle before ‘vanishing’. Sonic blinks for a few seconds before our hedgehog hero then shake the slime off. Tails asks Sonic, “Sonic, are you okay?”

Sonic responds, “I’m…!!” Just then Sonic hugs himself and he asks, shivering a lot, “Whoa! W-Who t-turned off the heat?”

Sailor Celestial replies, with a sly smirk, “That would be, in game terminology, a ‘chill de-buff’.”

Kazuto asks, curiously, “You can get de-buffs in this world?”

Sailor Celestial says, with a nod, “Ranging from the annoying to the ‘VERY NASTY’ if you catch my drift.”

Rika says, nodding her head, “Oh, we get it.”

Davis says, “Yeah, but it isn’t the worst of it.”

Yolei asks, “Not the worst of it? What could be worse?” Just then there is a monstrous roar and everyone looks towards the source to find what looks like an armored version of The Gleam Eyes, with dark silver armor helmet on his head and dark silver armor around his arms, backhands, lower waist, kneecaps, and feet, coming from seemly nowhere above crashing down in the ground some distance away from all of them.

Keiko shouts out, shocked, “He’s huge!”

Sailor Star asks, nervously, “Is that…?”

Sailor Star responds, “That’s right. It is an ‘evolved version’ of the seventh-fourth floor boss, Gleam Eyes.”

Ken says, “Aincrad…SAO became part of this world and even through Aincrad was destroyed, plenty of SAO became part of this world. Remember, this is part of the Digital World.”

Ken responds, with a nod of understanding, “You have a point there.”

Sailor Celestial leaps forward of everyone else and she says, drawing one of her swords, “I’ll take of this freak.”

Sailor Moon says, concerned, “Hold on!”

Sailor Celestial replies, “Don’t worry about it. This will make a good demonstration of the power of this world.”

Sailor Star asks, “The power of this world?”

Naruto asks, confused, “What’s that mean?”

Davis says, with a sly smile, “Just watch!”

Veemon says, with a wide grin, “This is going to be good!”

Sailor Celestial shouts out, strongly, “Hey, freak eyes, why don’t you take me on?!” The armored version of Gleam Eyes turns its attention to Sailor Celestial and with a mighty roar, it charges right for her, but Sailor Celestial doesn’t even flinch as she closes her eyes.

Kazuto says, worriedly, “Hey!”

Sailor Moon says, worriedly, “Hold on!”

Sailor Moon moves one of her hands to one of her swords and Davis asks, surprised, “Whoa, hold up! What’s got your armored skirt twisted?” Just then Sailor Celestial’s form becomes surrounded by a powerful rainbow aura and a powerful wind starts to come off her form.

(Sword Art Online Alicization music ‘Sacred Swords’ starts)

The ‘wind’ from Sailor Celestial becomes intensely powerful that plenty of the others struggle to stay standing due to the sheer force and power from said ‘wind’ causing Hinata to say, “Such power!”

As Sailor Celestial’s sword starts to glow with a familiar glow, Kotone says, shocked, “Her sword!”

Sailor Star asks, shocked, “A Sword Skill?!”

Rika asks, amazed, “You can perform Sword Skills here?”

Kazuto thinks in his mind, “If that coloration is right, why would she use such a basic one? Her opponent is too far away and…” Before Kazuto could continue, ‘images’ of Sailor Celestial’s ALO avatar of Leafa and another one that looks like Suguha, but dressed similar to Tifa from Final Fantasy 7: Advent Children, appears from Sailor Celestial’s form causing her eyes to shoot open allowing us to see her eyes filled with power and determination causing her to roar with power as she extends her sword upwards in which the blade of the sword starts to extend outwards high into the air!

There are gasps of shock and Sakura shouts out, shocked, “No freaking way!” Sailor Celestial, still roaring out with power, performs Horizontal and the, now, really long-bladed sword comes down right on the armored version of Gleam Eyes where it hits on the UNARMORED portions of his body and cuts him in two causing the armored Gleam Eyes to roar out in pain as he explodes into hundreds of data pixels, signifying its destruction.

(Sword Art Online Alicization music ‘Sacred Swords’ ends)

Soon after the armored Gleam Eyes’ destruction, Sailor Celestial’s sword returns to normal and she puts its back in its sheath causing Kotone to say, “Incredible!”

Rika asks, trying to hide her impressment with what just happened, “What’s so surprising about that?”

Sailor Jupiter says, “I guess that there are things that our Suguha haven’t learned to use her powers with.”

Sailor Celestial says, with a smirk, “Shows how much you know. I didn’t use my powers.”

There are looks of surprise and Rika says, shocked, “No way!”

Cody says, “The adding of SAO’s data to this world might explain how you are about to use Sword Skills, but Sword Skills don’t allow you to extend your sword like that.”

Ken says, “True. I say that from experience. However, you might when you went into that ‘dream world’ when you fought MaloMyotismon.”

Yolei responds, “Who can forget that?”

Ken asks, realizing something, “You mean that this place is like that world?”

Cody says, “Kind of. Remember when Gennai told you that the Digital World was similar to that world? This place emphasizes that point very well.”

Davis asks, amazed, “Seriously?”

Sailor Sun says, with a nod, “Yeah. This new area of the Digital World emphasizes the power to make dreams come true. However, you need to ‘tap’ into that power via your own will. Celestial did that with her sword and the skill that she just used.”

Sailor Jupiter says, “It isn’t easy. You can’t just think that you are going to make your sword super long and cut down your opponent like Celestial did.”

Sailor Celestial says, plainly, “No duh! You have to absolutely certain that this is going to happen. I wasn’t just believing that my sword would extend and my sword, with my skill, would cut through that guy…I KNEW with absolutely certainty that it would.”

Kazuto asks, “So, you are saying that your will is ‘overriding’ the ‘reality’ of this place?”

Sailor Celestial says, with a plain tone, “More like you are making your own reality through your own will. Don’t tell me how to explain it.”

Tails says, amazed, “Wow. That’s amazing!”

Sailor Celestial says, “Anyway, we should be careful.”

Sakura asks, “Why is that?”

Sailor Celestial says, “Up ahead is what we call Crystalize Maze or also known as ‘Maze of the Hazy Memories’.”

Naruto asks, “Maze of Hazy Memories?”

Tuxedo Mask says, “I believe that’s a place that we should be especially CAREFUL around.”

Sailor Celestial responds, with a nod, “Yep.” She then turns to Sonic and she shouts out, sternly, “And you are going to follow me and my instructions or I will strip you of your super-speed! Don’t test me!” Sailor Celestial gives a death glare that makes even Sonic flinch greatly.

As Sailor Celestial stomps off ahead, Mimi says, nervously, “Yipe! She’s scary!”

Mimi’s SMO-2 counterpart responds, with a nod, “Yes, she is.”

Kazuto says, “Something tells me that we shouldn’t blame her.”

Sailor Moon says, “I’m not surprised that you would understand her.” She then says, with a sigh, “We have been through a nightmare, but she has been through that and more.”

Hibari says, solemnly, “Oh my…”

Tuxedo Mask says, “Let’s move everyone.” Everyone else nods their heads in agreement and they head off after Sailor Celestial as they follow her into the next section of the part of the Digital Middle-verse that they are in.

Early June 2026, SMO-2 Universe, Outside of Earth’s orbit

Outside of the orbit of SMO-2 universe’s Earth, we are inside of Washu’s space station where we find Alita working on a triangle-shaped device with Washu looking on.

Washu says, with a nod, “Very inventive.”

Alita says, “Thank you, Washu-san.”

Washu says, with a grin, “I have to say that you are nowhere near my league, but you are probably the smartest human on Earth.”

Alita says, nervously, “I’m not sure to take it as compliment, insult, or both, Washu-san.” Alita says, with a sigh, “Sometimes I wish that I wasn’t so super…MEGA smart. Genius can be such a pain sometimes.”

Washu says, with a smirk, “Maybe, but don’t tell me that you don’t love it.”

Just then a familiar female voice yells out, “What’s up?!” Washu and Alita look to see Stella and Adult Neptune walking over to them.

Washu responds, “Just the smartest human on our Earth showing her genius again.”

Stella asks, with a smile, “So, what’s our ‘female Tony Stark’ up to this time?”

Adult Neptune asks, “Tony Stark?”

Alita says, with a sigh and smile, “Fictional super-genius, Neptune-san.”

Washu asks Stella and Adult Neptune, “So, how is our guest?”

Stella says, with a sigh, “Annoying as always.”

Adult Neptune says, “That’s Crostie for you. I thought that after some time that she would finally ‘see the light’, but I don’t think that’s going to change anytime soon.”

Alita says, “When I heard about all of the adventures, my ‘mega brain’ can help me see how tiny I am in the ‘grand equation’ of the multiverse.”

Washu says, with a smile, “Yeah! Believe me, but ‘infinity’ and ‘eternity’ is far bigger than anyone else can think. Welcome to ‘everything’, girlfriend!”

Alita says, annoyed, “Thanks a lot.”

Stella says, with a sigh, “Well, I am bored just waiting around.”

Alita says, “Don’t worry, you may be getting back into action soon, especially with Suguha’s family not looking so good.”

Stella and Adult Neptune look at Alita and Washu asks, “So, you’ve noticed, huh?”

Alita says, “You don’t have to be a genius to notice THAT, Washu-dono.”

Stella responds, “What’s up with Suguha’s family?”

Alita says, “More like Suguha’s brother and sister…And I’m not talking about you, Stella.”

Stella asks, curiously, “You mean Serena?”

Alita responds, “You know any other Sailor Moons?”

Adult Neptune says, curiously, “They don’t seem sick to me.”

Alita says, “It isn’t about them suffering from any ‘ailments’, Neptune-san. It is their mental and emotional condition.”

Washu says, adding in, “The two of them have been through a rough four years so far. First, there was SAO. Next, even after they escaped SAO, they kept getting reminded about it all the time. Third…what happened with our Suguha around two months ago.”

Stella says, nervously, “Oh.”

Adult Neptune says, nervously, “Something tells me that this is too…mature for me, so, if you’ll excuse me…”

Adult Neptune then ‘zips off’ into the distance and when she is gone, Alita tells Stella, “They were locked in a prison that should have been a wonderful new adventure for over two years going through horrors…well, no one has faced before. I mean, who has been through a game that has turned into a ‘life or death’ battle before? Plus, what’s worse for Serena, it was done by someone that she treated like a second father. A person that she really loved and trusted, and she betrayed her in the worst possible way. Both of them have seen death and it has struck both of them deep in the heart. After they escaped that horror, it kept coming back to haunt them over and over again. And finally, just over two months ago, death came back into their lives in the form of that ‘living killing machine’ causing plenty more deaths including a person that’s most precious to them.”

Stella says, with a nod, “I know that, but Suguha came back.”

Alita says, nodding her head in agreement, “True, but remember, it was a one-in-a-billion miracle that it worked. I looked over the numbers that they managed to gather on the process that revived Suguha and they were right. It was a one-in-a-billion shot of working and everything had to go right for Suguha’s resurrection to be a success. I’m not sure and I highly doubt it would work twice. However, despite Suguha coming back, those other people that died due to Ragnarök’s rampage won’t and CAN NEVER come back. It is a reminder of our mortality. However, the whole experience for Serena and Kazuto, it must have reopened the ‘wounds of SAO’, once again, and it has only been about a month since Suguha came back. Their ‘wounds’ from that whole experience have yet to start to truly heal.”

Washu then says, plainly, “Yeah, now that Suguha’s powers are currently unstable, they are even more worried than ever for the girl. It shouldn’t be surprising that it has ONLY been a month since Suguha was revived and also regained her powers. The fear of losing her is still strong in them.”

Alita says, “And that’s what’s concerning. Remember, they just knocked out Suguha to force her to stay here.”

Stella says, nervously, “Yeah…”

Alita says, “That fear losing her might consume them and we can’t be sure about the ‘damage’ to the two of them. That’s what we need to worry about.”

Stella says, nervously and realizing what Alita is implying, “Oh.”

Washu says, with a nod, “You got that right.”

Early June 2026, SMO-2 Universe, Earth, Digital Middle-verse

Rejoining our heroes and heroines with the SMO-2 counterparts of the Sailor Scouts and Digidestined, human and Digimon, they are hidden behind a very strange and misshaped rock formation while a number of them are looking out through large enough ‘holes’ in the rock formation to see out what’s in front of them where they find two heavily armored ogre type monsters guarding the entrance to a massive forest maze made of seemly diamond or just as hard crystal.

Tai says, annoyed, “That’s just great.”

TK says, nodding his head in agreement, “No joke. They are among the hardest to fight. Typical fantasy ogres are big and powerful, and they can take damage WITHOUT armor. Give them armor and they are like the toughest tanks.”

Kazuto says, nodding his head in agreement, “Yeah. Doesn’t matter that you are faster than them. You won’t be able to put any nicks other than the exposed parts of the armor and they can usually shrug off ‘nicks’.”

Sakura says, “Unless you hit the weak spots.”

Naruto says, with a sly grin, “I guess that it is our time to shine.”

Hinata and the other ninja of the group nod their heads, but Sailor Orion says, “My Celestial and I can take care of it.” When everyone else looks towards Sailor Orion, they bow in her hands is glowing and then her bow ‘transforms’ into anti-material sniper rifle known as PGM Hecate II.

Sailor Venus says, shocked, “Whoa!”

Sailor Neptune asks, “You just used the ‘power of this world’, correct?”

Sailor Orion responds, with a nod, “Right.”

Sailor Celestial asks, “Sinon, can you…?”

Sailor Orion replies, interrupting Sailor Celestial, “I see that you have that same habit as Asuna.”

Sailor Celestial gives a nervous giggle and she says, “Can’t blame me for that.”

Sailor Orion says, her expression becoming serious and her tone plain, “I’ve got it.”

Sailor Celestial then also gains a deadly serious expression and she says, plainly, “There is a large group of grass that I can conceal myself until the time is right. When they focus on me, strike one of them and then I’ll be able to take on the other.”

Sailor Orion replies, with a nod, “Understood.” She then asks, “Which technique will you be using?”

Sailor Celestial takes out her Dark Repulser causing her to respond, “I’ll use the technique that my big brother was famous for in Aincrad.” There are plenty of surprised looks by that statement and after Sailor Orion throws an earphone communication device, Sailor Celestial puts it into her left ear before she teleports away while Sailor Orion puts another earphone communicator into her left ear.

Sailor Orion tells her counterpart, “You are a survivor of that ‘other death game’.”

Sailor Orion replies, plainly, “Obvious. Unlike SAO, there was only one rule: Law of the Jungle.”

Tuxedo Mask states, “Only the strongest survive.”

Sailor Sun says, with a nod, “Exactly.”

Sailor Sun asks her SMO-2 counterpart, “You too?”

Sailor Sun says, pointing to Davis, “Dai-kun and I both.”

Plenty of the others look at SMO-2 versions of our Digidestined of Miracles and Life causing Davis say, irritated, “Bastard thought that it would be fun to add a couple of ‘vets’ into their ‘event’. One minute, we were wandering around and the next, in a flash, literally, we were trapped in cages, bombs around our necks, and having us and our partners fighting for our lives.”

Gatomon says, with a nod, “I wanted to find the person that did this to us and turn him into a scratching post while keeping alive as long as possible.”

Sailor Orion says, plainly, “Quiet.”

Mimi asks, curiously, “Do you…?”

Sailor Orion responds, taking out an icy-blue version of digivice used by Suguha, “Yes, I do. And thank you for reminding me. Gaomon, realize.” Sailor Orion then pushes a button on her digivice and in a small flash of light, too small to be seen past the massive rock formation, a Digimon appears in front of everyone.

This Digimon looks to be a bipedal blue Akita Inu dog with black nose and claws, yellow eyes, a white belly and mane, and white tail tip, feet tips, snout, inner ears, and a yellow cross-shaped mark in the forehead. It is wearing a red bandana, white bandages on its arms, and red and black boxing gloves on its hands.

Digimon Analyzer (Tentomon’s voice)

“That’s Gaomon! A Beast Digimon that’s a real fighter as you can see with the boxing gloves around his hands! It is the master of ‘hit and run’ attacks due to its speed and keen movements. His Double Backhand and Gao Rush will KO an opponent if they aren’t careful!”

This Digimon, Gaomon, was sitting in a meditating position with his eyes close and he asks, “Ma’am, are you in need of me?”

Sailor Orion says, “Yes, I do. I hope that I’m not disturbing you.”

Gaomon replies, “Not at all. I just do what I always do. It is quite relaxing.”

Sailor Orion says, with a light smile, “Can’t really do much in there after all.” Gaomon then looks around and his eyes widen when he sees everyone.

Gaomon says, “I know that I overheard everything, but it is still kind of hard to believe.”

Sailor Orion tells her partner, “Don’t try to wrap your head around it. It is only going to give you a headache. I nearly got one. I’m about to snipe. I need to keep our six o’ clock clear.” Gaomon nods his head as Sailor Orion shows him a communication earpiece seemly designed for him in which he puts it into his ear in which Gaomon then stealthy takes off into the distance.

Veemon says, amazed, “He’s good.”

Sailor Orion says, plainly, “He is my partner after all.”

Gaomon’s voice booms out in Sailor Orion’s communicator, “Ma’am, six has been cleared.”

Sailor Orion responds, “Understood.”

Sailor Celestial’s voice says, “I’m ready here. Attack when they focus on me.”

Sailor Orion replies, with a plain tone, “Understood. Begin operation.” Some distance away, hidden in a group of massive grass, Sailor Celestial, with her sword out, is in the stance to perform a Vorpal Strike Sword Skill and her sword starts to glow a familiar red glow.

(Sword Art Online Alicization music ‘Sacred Swords’ starts)

A powerful ‘wind’ created by the sheer power of Sailor Celestial’s aura causing the group of tall and massive glass that she is hiding in to wildly shake and quake causing the armored ogre to have their attention turned towards them in which Sailor Orion, looking through the high-tech scope attached to the Hecate II, aiming for one of the ogre’s ‘weak spots’, in this case, its exposed head. Sailor Orion, like a true sniper, exhales and in-between a heartbeat, she fires her weapon and before the ‘bang’ could be heard, the projectile from the Hecate II slams into the head of one of the ogres, destroying it, and the rest of the ogre ‘shatters’ into hundreds of data pixels, leaving only its armor behind. The remaining armored ogre turns its attention towards the death of its partner and it is that moment, Sailor Celestial roars out, her powerful aura blowing away all the grass, and when the ogre turns towards her, Sailor Celestial unleashes her Vorpal Strike, but unlike the usual Sword Skill, her sword’s blade extend outwards where it slams into the ogre’s head, destroying it, and the rest of the ogre ‘shatters’ into hundreds of data pixels, leaving only the armor behind.

(Sword Art Online Alicization music ‘Sacred Swords’ ends)

Afterwards, the blade of Sailor Celestial’s sword returns to normal where she returns her sword to its sheath as the others come over to her.

Patamon says, “Wow.”

TK says, with a nod of his head, “I’ll say, Patamon.”

Sailor Jupiter asks, curiously, “By the way, you call your Sailor Orion ‘Sinon’. Why is that?”

Sailor Orion says, “It was my ‘name’ through the death game that Leafa…I mean, Celestial and I were trapped in.”

Sailor Sun says, “The person that kidnapped all of us forced us also to adopt new names, like you do with MMO characters.”

Kazuto says, plainly, “To make you accept your ‘new reality’.”

Davis responds, with a nod and plain tone, “Bingo, buster.”

Homura says, “Geez, what was that guy? It seems like all these ‘death game guys’ seem to have a ‘kami complex’ or something.”

Katsuragi asks, “Isn’t that the usual thing with egotistical super-villains?”

Sakura says, with a nod, “Yeah, as far as I can see.”

Naruto nods his head and he retorts, rolling his eyes, “Believe it.”

Sailor Celestial says, “Anyway, we should get going.”

Mimi says, looking at what’s ahead, “It is so pretty.”

Sailor Orion says, “On the outside, but this place can be quite dangerous.”

Sailor Uranus asks, “How is that?”

Sailor Sun says, “We call it ‘Maze of the Hazy Memories’ for good reason. This place can manifest your memories and even manifest events that happened, even parts that you weren’t there to witness.”

There are plenty of shocked looks and Sailor Venus asks, amazed, “Seriously?”

Tuxedo Mask says, “That’s why you warned about getting ‘lost in your memories’.”

Sailor Celestial says, with a nod, “Yep. And you might drag others into it, so, watch it.” Sailor Celestial then says, glaring at Sonic, “Especially you, pal!”

Sonic responds, with a shrug, “Whatever.”

Sally sighs and she tells Sonic, “Sonic, she knows this place far better than any of us.”
Sonic responds, with a sigh, “All right.” Soon enough, the group enters into massive crystal forest maze that’s said by certain SMO-2 universe members to bring their memories to ‘life’ and can’t help to wonder what that meant.

Early June 2026, SMO-2 Universe, Outside of Earth’s orbit

Suguha groans as she slowly wakes up and shakes her head causing her to say, “What hit me? Wait! I remember!” Suguha says, with a groan, “I’m going to give those girls a piece of my mind…!!” When Suguha regains her focus, she gasps to find herself on an immense bed and she is without clothing, but most shocking to her, Suguha finds her waist ‘bloating’ outwards causing her to ‘eep’ and cover herself with bed’s blanket causing her to say, “What the heck?! I shouldn’t be so fat! I’ve been burning calories like crazy…!!” Just then Suguha feels a ‘strange sensation’ and she rubs her waist under the blanket causing her to gasp in which she thinks in her mind, nervously, “N-N-No way! I’m not fat! I…I…I’m pregnant! Oh, Kami! What the heck am I doing pregnant?!” Just then Suguha gasps as she feels a pair of arms wrap around her and she turns to see Sakura where Suguha can see that she has a pink rhombus on her forehead, her lips are a deep pink color, and, what was most shocking to Suguha of all, Sakura also had a greatly expanded waistline, indicating that she is deep into a pregnancy.

Sakura tells Suguha, with a loving smile, “About time, sleepyhead. I thought that I was going to wake you up the usual way through I am a bit disappointed that I didn’t get the chance.” Sakura then kisses Suguha causing to wildly flush and Suguha wanted to push Sakura, gently, away, but Sakura hugs Suguha and gently rubs Suguha’s waist causing Suguha to moan in Sakura’s mouth as she feels a warm sensation going throughout her body.

Suguha thinks in her mind, “She…She’s touching me there! Oh, crap! I feel it! I feel the baby!”

Sakura then releases Suguha from the kiss, licking her lips in a sultry manner, and she says, with a sly smile, “Now, it is time to get up. Pregnant or not, one of the empresses of the United Elemental Nation shouldn’t be sleeping on the job.”

Suguha asks, surprised, “Empress?”

Sakura gives a confused look and she says, with a sigh, “Geez, you have wild mood swings even for the average pregnant girl and now ‘memory swings’! Yeah, sis! You are along with me, Hinata, and members of Naruto-kun’s harem!” Sakura takes Suguha’s right hand causing her to be surprised to find a beautiful golden wedding ring with a large diamond, large for a ring of course, around her right ring finger in which she says, smirking, “Since we are married to the emperor of our united ‘world’ on Earth, it isn’t surprising that we are royalty. Normally, it would be the first wife would be empress with us, ‘other wives’, being like ‘emperor’s consort’, princess, and such, but we are all considered equal. And you are Empress Suguha Uzumaki Namikaze.”

Suguha yelps as Sakura gently rubs her belly causing her to say, “Hey!”

Sakura tells Suguha, with a sly grin, “Now, get your ‘prince’ and ‘princess’ ready to go. Things to do, a united peaceful world to rule with our vast family and help expand into galaxy with our new colonies.” Sakura shuffles out of the bed and she tells Suguha, in a sultry voice, “Maybe later, you, Hinata-chan, and I can have some ‘fun’ with Naruto-kun, sis.”

Suguha says, a bit nervously, “S-Sure.”

Sakura tells Suguha, with a glare and sly smirk, “Don’t act if you are self-conscious like back in the day. You’ve become quite the dominatrix after you had those two little royals put in there.”

As Sakura starts to get dressed, Suguha thinks in her mind, with a sigh, “Great. I’m in another ‘wet dream’, probably being put in my mind by that fox. Ugh! Just like in the anime and manga, Naruto got Kurama to open up to him and the hatred inside of him faded away. However, with the hatred no longer part of his chakra, his chakra became ‘laced’ with the nature that kitsunes have. There are many stories of being really good ‘lovers’ and the reason is, at least in my current world, is they are the ‘touchy and feely type’. In this case, Kurama is a MAJOR hentai.” The scene then changes back into a luxury bedroom with the vast space station of Washu where we find Suguha, in a deep sleep, sleeping in the massive bed in the bedroom while Matsu, Akitsu, and Tsukiumi are watching her with Matsu has a high-tech digital video camera in her hands.

Matsu says, with a perverted grin on her lips, “It looks like she is having a nice dream.”

Akitsu says, “When she wakes and she find out, she is going to seriously hurt you.”

Tsukiumi says, with a plain tone, “Thou would deserve such punishment.”
Matsu says, nervously, “Come on, it is all in good fun.” Akitsu and Tsukiumi look at each other and shake their head in which Matsu gives an annoyed pout.

Early June 2026, SMO-2 Universe, Earth, Digital Middle-verse

Back in the Digital Middle-verse, things are getting hard for our heroes and heroines and their counterparts from this universe that are with them as they are going through the mysterious Crystalize Maze where they find themselves under attack by humanoid being made of different colored crystal, but what was disturbing is these ‘crystalized humanoids’ look like enemies that the Moon Kingdom Sailor Scouts have face before, youma, Heart Snatchers, Phages, and otherwise, humanoid ‘monsters’ from SAO, ‘crystalized’ versions of ‘human enemies’ that our heroes and heroines, including members of Laughing Coffin from SAO, and even ‘crystalized duplicates’ of themselves!

Sailor Star blocks a blow from a crystal duplicate of Kazuto, as Kirito with his twin swords, causing her to say, “This is quite…disturbing.” Sailor Star throws the Kirito duplicate back while both versions of Sailor Orion engage against a group of ‘crystalized duplicates’ of all of the Sailor Scouts, with versions of their powers and weapons, including themselves.

Tai says, as Omnimon uses his special attacks to destroy crystal duplicates of the Dark Masters, “That’s a major understatement, Asuna.”

Sailor Celestial tells them, “I think that you get what we meant.”

Tails, using his portable blast while floating in the air, “Yeah, no kidding!”

After cutting down dozens to hundreds of their ‘crystal enemies’, Sonic stops and he says, “Ah, they are pushovers! Even Eggman’s basic tin cans are tougher than this!” Just then Sonic yelps as his legs are frozen in ice-blue crystal by a doppelganger of Sailor Mercury where a ‘crystal doppelganger’ of Sailor Uranus zips over to strike him down.

Sally yells out, worriedly, “Sonic!” However, before the doppelganger of Sailor Uranus could strike him down, Sailor Moon slices it down with her swords.

Sailor Moon tells Sonic, “You should listen to this world’s Celestial, Sonic.” With a powerful kick, Sailor Moon shatters the ice holding Sonic’s legs in place.

Sonic says, “Got lucky.” Sonic zips off causing Sailor Moon to shake her head along with Sally as well.

After using his Light Hawk powers to vaporize more enemies, Davis says, with a grin, “Sonic the hedgehog is Sonic the hedgehog.”

TK says, with a smirk, “Not surprising that he is one of your favorite American manga characters.” Davis gives a mock annoyed glance at TK while Naruto, using multiple elemental chakra Rasenshuriken, obliterates A LOT of their enemies with Sakura, using her mystical flame sword from the Hayabusa, and Sailor Galaxy, using a combination of her Tenseigan and her Tenseigan Chakra Mode with her Truth-Seeker Balls, unleash a powerful series of attacks before unleashing a combination attack in the form of a massive flame twister that scoops up the rest of their opponents.

Sailor Venus says, giving a whistle, “Wow. You are quite amazing.”

Naruto says, with a grin, “No kidding, believe it!”

Sakura says, with a smile, “We’ve had a lot of practice.”

Sailor Uranus says, with a plain tone, “I’ll bet.” Just then there is a massive roar, and everyone looks to see a crystalized version of An Incarnation of Radius has appeared and loomed over them.

Sailor Celestial asks, surprised, “What the heck?!”

Kotone says, worriedly, “Uh oh!”

Rika says, nervously, “That’s an understatement!”

Omnimon says, “Don’t worry, we got this!” But then there is a strong ‘glow’ coming our heroes and heroines and everyone looks to see Kazuto, holding an Oblivion Keyblade in his right hand and standing in a familiar stance, is the one that’s ‘glowing’.

Sailor Star says, surprised, “Kirito-kun…” Kazuto then roars out as his outfit ‘transforms’ into his ‘outfit’ that his SAO avatar wore and he unleashes a similar ‘enhanced’ Vorpal Strike that impales the crystalized duplicate of An Incarnation of Radius right through its head where Kazuto roars out as he brings his ‘sword arm’ down, cutting the massive crystalized version of the final boss of SAO in half in which it shatters into pieces.

Keiko says, amazed, “Kirito-san…”

Kotone says, awe-struck, “Amazing…” However, there are quite a few members of the group that are worried about this ‘development’.

Matt says, sarcastically, “Well, that was fun.”

Sailor Jupiter asks, “So, this place creates opponents based on one’s memories?”

Sailor Celestial says, with a nod, “Yep, but there is more to it than that.”

Sailor Moon asks, curiously, “More than that?”

Sailor Celestial responds, with a plain tone, “Let’s not try to figure that out.” Sailor Moon gives a curious look, but Sailor Celestial gives a look that says, ‘don’t ask’, so, Sailor Moon decides not to say anything.

Early June 2026, SMO-2 Universe, Outside of Earth’s orbit

Back outside of Earth’s orbit, the Enterprise is stationary and orbiting in-between Washu’s space station and Earth where we go onto the bridge where we find ourselves on the bridge of the Enterprise where we find the bridge crew doing what they are using doing as Washu enters the bridge via her ‘usual manner’.

Captain Kirk asks Washu, “Don’t you ever knock?”

Washu responds, with a smirk, “What for?”

Captain Kirk shakes his head and [Serena] tells him, “Don’t bother Jim.”

Spock then says, “Captain, I’m getting unusual readings on our sensors.”

Captain Kirk asks, “What do you mean ‘unusual’, Spock?”

Spock says, “I’m detecting a massive ‘object’ within the solar system and its ‘temporal signature’ doesn’t match this universe’s signature.”

Captain Kirk’s and [Serena’s] eyes widen, and Captain Kirk asks, surprised, “What do you mean?”

Washu says, “What he means that it could be trouble.” Everyone looks at Washu where they see that Washu has a very serious look in her eyes.

[Serena] tells Captain Kirk, “Jim…Captain, I suggest that we go to yellow alert.”

Captain Kirk, after several seconds, responds, “That’s probably a good idea. Yellow alert.” Immediately, certain lights on the bridge turn to a yellow color and personal on the bridge start to move to ‘certain stations’ with Uhura is on the communication system to the ship making the ‘call’ to the rest of the Enterprise of Captain Kirk’s orders.

Early June 2026, SMO-2 Universe, Earth, Digital Middle-verse

Returning to the Digital Middle-verse, we are back inside of the Crystalize Maze where we find our vast group of our heroes and heroines, from both the SMO-2 Universe and the ‘main universe’, going through this area, but it looks like pure chaos with the multiple crystalized ‘pillars’, stalactites, stalagmites, and the sort in all sorts of ‘chaotic formations’.

Sailor Venus asks, “Whoa! Is this normal?”

Sailor Celestial responds, “No, this isn’t.”

Sailor Mercury says, using her visor and computer, “The fragment is causing this. Remember, it was ‘contaminated’ by the Chaos Emeralds.”

Patamon asks, “So, that’s why this place has gone even ‘loopier’?”

TK says, “I believe that’s what Ami is saying, Patamon.”

Sailor Uranus says, “That means that we need to be more careful than ever.”

Sailor Pluto says, “Time and space are very unstable around here.”

Sailor Pluto nods her head in agreement with her SMO-2 counterpart and Sonic says, with a grin, “This is just like a maze! Looks like a blast!”

Sailor Celestial screams out, very irritated, “Haven’t you heard anything that I have said…?!” However, she doesn’t get a chance to say anything more after that as she trips on a stone and performs as Sailor Moon-style ‘klutz attack’ where she falls down as a crystal floats by where her hand touches it causing it to glow wildly causing the whole area to ‘transform’ into an immense field with a huge amount of people.

Davis asks, confused, “What the heck?”

Sailor Sun says, nervously, “Uh no.”

Sailor Sun asks, confused, “What’s wrong?”

Gatomon says, pointing ahead of her, “I think that’s what’s wrong.” Everyone looks to see an immense mass of people and the massive holographic image of a humanoid male figure, ‘cloaked’ in shadows, looming over them.

The humanoid male figure, the massive hologram, then says, in a booming voice, “Welcome everyone. You are in the Digital World.”

One person asks, confused, “Digital World?”

The figure responds, “The very same Digital World that you have heard about. The very same one where the digital creatures known as Digimon or Digital Monsters come from. You’ve already heard about them and their world, so, I believe there is no need to go into extensive explanation. However, this is an area of the Digital World is a new area that was just born. You must be wondering what I’m talking about. The Digital World was created by the digital data passing through all of our digital hardware and ‘other stuff’, but as we became more digitized, the Digital World grew larger and larger as a result since our worlds are interconnected. This area was created from the Digital World’s ‘expansion’, which is much under my ‘supervision’ now, but I digress. The question: Why are you, around fifty thousand people from all over the world, here?”  The crowd around the hologram shows looks of ‘gloom and doom’ and the figure replies, “I shall be blunt with you. Your worst fears are true. This is a death game like Sword Art Online.” There are gasps of shock and horror and the figure says, “This isn’t a gag or a joke. And I shall prove that. You should realize, by now, there are collars around your neck. They aren’t there for decoration.” Our heroes and heroines then look to see that everyone in the crowd has a grey ring-like collar around their neck with a red ‘jewel’ in the center of the collar and the figure says, “You will see what they are in a moment. In this ‘death game’, your goal is get to exit, but the exit is on the other side of this realm and this realm extends the length of the Great Wall of China at its height around the Ming Destiny of China which is around eight thousand, eight hundred, and fifty kilometers or five thousand and five hundred miles.”

There are gasps of shock and one person in the crowd screams out, “You’re kidding!”

The figure then says, “This is no joke at all, ladies and gentlemen. Also, you aren’t doing this alone. Each person here MUST partner with a Digimon, but don’t worry, there are hundreds of thousands to millions of Digimon to choose from. However, you must protect your partner or partners as much as they protect you. For anyone that loses ALL of their Digimon partners…” The figure then points to a person, a young blond haired and brown-haired male of European origin, and the ‘jewel’ on his collar starts to glow.

He says, in Italian, “[What’s going on?]” After ten seconds, the collar, literally, explodes and many people around the young man screams as his life is ended in extremely violent manner with his body vanishing before their eyes.

Plenty of our heroes and heroines gasp in shock and horror and Sailor Jupiter yells out, “Holy shit!”

A number of our heroes and heroines look away and cover their eyes in which Tuxedo Mask says, shocked and horrified, “My kami…”

The figure says, “Ten seconds after your partner or partners are deleted, you will be terminated as well. The same goes for them as well. If you die, your partners will be deleted. You should remember that I also said PARTNERS which means that you are allowed to have more than one Digimon partner and you will not be killed unless ALL of your partners are killed. So, it is in your best interest to get more than one Digimon partner I believe. However, the relationship is mutual, you must help them survive as much as they must help you survive. To get to the exit and freedom, you must work together. There are quite a few other ‘rules’, but the main rule in this ‘death game’ in simple: It is the ‘law of jungle’. That means, in short: The strong survive and the weak die. Like SAO, you will have levels, stats, and such to give you ‘strength’ and ‘abilities’ as well as ‘equipment’ and ‘power-ups’ to increase your ‘stats’ and ‘skills’, but unlike SAO, you will have more than just ‘skills’. You will have something akin to ‘magic’ and so much more. But also, unlike SAO, there are no ‘safe zones’ expect for one.” The hologram of the figure then points in one direction and everyone looks to see immense turtle Digimon with a futuristic city on his back causing the figure to say, “That’s ElDradimon, a Mega Mutant Digimon. He fused with data about ancient rules, but in this case, I have improved on him. He is practically indestructible and special fields within the city prevent Digimon from digivolving or using their special attacks in which protective fields also makes you unable to hurt each other with whatever ‘abilities’ that you have gained here. There is also a practically indestructible force-field that prevents outside attack and special defenses that prevents anyone from attacking you and the city, but ElDradimon is slow and I have ‘programmed’ him not to move beyond a point that hasn’t been explored by you, the ‘players’ of this ‘death game’. While he is well-stocked with shelter and food, he will only move as you explore this world and you will need to earn money to buy the food and shelter that he provides. To escape, you must ‘play the game’ and that’s all there is to it.”

Sailor Uranus says, with a sneer, “I can’t believe there would be anyone as sick or even sicker than Kayaba.”

Tai tells Sailor Uranus, “Don’t forget ‘mister personality’ in Sugou.”

Rika says, with a shiver, “I would rather forget.”

Kazuto and Sailor Moon look towards Sailor Celestial and the figure says, “The final question must be obvious: Why am I doing this? In a way, I am like Kayaba, but in a way, I am not. I did want this situation to pan out, but unlike him, I am performing a ‘grand experiment’. It is complex and I believe that you don’t have the ability to comprehend my goal in this ‘experiment’. For now, I wish you luck and pray for your survival. Now, proceed to partner up with the Digimon gathered for you. All of you have a device that will ‘register’ the Digimon that have become your partners, but the device is more than that ‘link’ to your Digimon partners, however, it is something that you will need to discover on your own. The ‘game’ shall start within the hour and anyone that doesn’t have a Digimon partner will be terminated on the spot. Good luck, players.” The hologram of the male figure than vanishes and just like what happened at the start of SAO, one female scream is enough to send the massive crowd in a frenzy of fear and panic with screams, shouts, and wails of pure fear, panic, terror, and much more.

Keiko says, shocked, “This is…this is like what happened to us…”

Matt says, with narrowing eyes, “Just on a grander scale and then some.”

Sailor Venus asks, pointing at one location, “Recognize anyone?” Soon after, everyone looks to see a 14 to 15-year-old Suguha Kirigaya with a shocked and stunned look on her face.

Sailor Moon asks, shocked, “Is that…?”

Sailor Celestial responds, “Yep. That’s me. Back then.”

Sailor Mercury says, “So, this is an image of the past.”

Sailor Celestial replies, plainly, “Yep. My past. From my ‘death game’.” Everyone looks to see Suguha just standing there for a while as the immense crowd continue their mass panic, but all of them then see Suguha looks at a device attached to her left wrist and activates it in which she looks at a holographic screen for around half-a-minute before she runs off where she finds an Agumon exactly like Agumon (Suguha) and Lunamon in which she partners up with them before Suguha gets a simple sword before the three of them run off into the ‘wildness’ to start their ‘fight’ for freedom. Sailor Celestial says, “From that point on, like my big brother, I was in a fight for my survival and then some. I made a few friends…”

Davis says, with a smile, “That’s for sure.” The scene then ‘switches’ to ‘scenes’ showing Suguha meeting up with someone that looks like Shion, wearing an outfit similar to what she wears Sinon’s ALO outfit, holding a futuristic sniper rifle, and having Gaomon by her side, and then it switches to a ‘scene’ where Suguha and her two Digimon partners meetings up with Davis, Kari, and their two Digimon partners, Veemon and Gatomon.

Sailor Sun asks her counterpart, “You went through the same thing?”

Sailor Sun responds, with a sigh, “Yeah.”

Davis remarks, with a snarl, “Sicko thought that it would be fun if a few ‘veterans’ were thrown into the mix. Made me wanted strangle that ass.”

Davis tells his counterpart, “Don’t blame you, bro.”

Sailor Celestial says, “Six months of hell…Six months…but it felt like a lifetime. And all that time, he broadcasted the whole thing to the world.”

Sailor Neptune says, “We were already trying to figure out a way to get Serena and all of those trapped in SAO free in which this situation has had us hard-pressed.”

Izzy says, “We contacted Gennai and tried to find that area of the Digital World. However, Gennai informed us that due to the ever-growing expansion, the Digital World is ever-growing and always expanding causing new areas to appear with various ‘conditions’ in which it is hard to track them all. These days, with VRMMOs, the Digital World is going through a massive expansion.”

Mimi asks, “Is that happened in our world?”

Izzy replies, with a nod, “Yes. Gennai has informed me about such.”

Cody says, “We tried to find a way into that location in the Digital World, but we couldn’t find a way to that location. It was like it didn’t exist.”

Sailor Celestial says, “Well, it did exist and Davis, Kari, Orion, and I should know since we went through that nightmare.” Sailor Celestial says, with a plain tone, “Six months and yet, it was longer than the two years that big brother and those that went through Aincrad.” Soon after, the ‘scene’ then morphs what looks like the field area of Floor 76 of Aincrad where it looks like a group of Digimon, including Musyamon, have people/players that look like Kirito, Usagi, Asuna, Lisbeth, Klein, Agil, and many others ‘backed into a corner’.

Sailor Saturn asks, “What’s this?”

Sailor Neptune says, “It looks like…Aincrad.”

Sailor Moon says, “It is. MY Aincrad.” A lot of the others look at Sailor Moon causing her to say, “I’m not sure how similar my experience is to your Sailor Moon, but I don’t think that it is too much different.”

Sailor Moon thinks in her mind, “That’s for sure.”

Sailor Moon says, “For two years, I’ve gone through so much when…Kayaba trapped us all in that prison. If it wasn’t for my few friends, like Kirito, Asuna, and others, as well as the ‘knowledge’ that the Scouts and my beloved were ‘cheering me on’, I would have gone to pieces. After two years, I finally found HIM. On the seventy-fifth floor, pretending to be a fellow player, a player that a lot of other players looked up to.”

Kazuto says, plainly, “Heathcliff.” Sailor Moon then goes onto describe pretty much the same thing that happened to our heroes and heroines in SAO, with Sailor Moon’s battle against Heathcliff, the ‘glitching’ out, Sailor Moon SEEMLY beating Heathcliff, however, SAO wasn’t stopping due to the ‘glitch’, it also caused their skills to get ‘messed up’, they also couldn’t use teleport gates or teleport crystals to get down below Floor 76, and Lisbeth joining them on Floor 76 soon after the Assault Team, but then it changes in which this world’s version of the Assault Team find out that Aincrad was floating above a canyon where they were then attacked by a group of Digimon ‘raiders’ with the Musyamon riding on the flying Digimon, which included Snimon and Kuwagamon, leading to the situation that our group is seeing right now.

“Trident Revolver!”

Just then three orange energy spheres slam into Snimon and a nearby Kuwagamon, deleting both of them in a strong explosion.

Lisbeth asks, shocked, “What the heck was that?” When everyone looks towards the source of the attack, they see RizeGreymon and Crescemon flying into the fight.

RizeGreymon says, “We see them, boss!”

A brown cloaked and hooded figure, on one of RizeGreymon’s shoulders, says, in a familiar female voice, “You and Crescemon take care of the bugs in the air. I’ll take care of the samurai wannabes on the ground!”

Crescemon asks, “Are you sure?”

The cloaked figure responds, “Do you need to ask that question, Crescemon?”

RizeGreymon tells Crescemon, “Best not to argue with the Boss.”  Crescemon nods her head as the female figure leaps from RizeGreymon’s shoulder and onto the ground where the cloaked figure turns to the face the Musyamon and the other Digimon with them.

Miyako asks, worriedly, “Whoa, is this person crazy?”

Takeru says, “Crazy or confident.” Just then the figure throws off their cloak and the figure is revealed to be Suguha, where she is dressed similar to Tifa Lockhart in ‘Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children’ with the collar containing the bomb around her neck, high-tech futuristic ‘gantlet’ around her left arm, black armored left kneepad, a belt containing multiple pouches around her waist, and sheaths containing two kitana-like swords attached to her back.

Kirito asks, shocked, “Sugu?!”

Lisbeth asks, surprised, “You know her?”

Kirito responds, shocked at the sight of Suguha, “That’s my younger sister!”

There are gasps of shock and Silica asks, surprised, “That’s your little sister that you told me about, Kirito-san?”

Kirito replies, still stunned, “That’s her. I recognize Sugu, but yet, she…”

Suguha then steps forward and she says, with a blunt tone, “I’ll get to the point: Leave and you’ll live.”

The Digimon looked shock, then laughed, and one of the Musyamon steps forward causing him to say, with a sinister smirk, “Who do you think you are, human?! You dare challenge us? I’ll teach you a lesson!” The Musyamon draws his sword and goes into a defensive stance, but then Suguha appears in front of him and with one quick slash, faster than the eye can perceive, Suguha beheads the Musyamon, who has a total look of shock and disbelief, and to the disbelief of everyone else, human and Digimon, Musyamon’s headless form falls to its knees before it and his head dispel into data particles.

Miyako yells out, in disbelief, “No freaking way!”

Yamato says, flabbergasted, “You have got to be kidding me…” After several stunned silent seconds, the opposing Digimon looks of shock and surprise turn into anger and rage.

Suguha says, her lips twisting in sly smile, “Next.”

The Digimon roar out in anger and another of the Musyamon shouts out, “How dare you, human?! You are dead!!”

(Sword Art Online Alicization music ‘Sacred Swords’ starts)

Immediately, the Digimon charge right for Suguha and a third Musyamon clashes swords with her, but Suguha quickly cuts him down causing the Musyamon causing him to dispel into data particles, however, she is quickly swarmed by more enemy Digimon.

Kirito yells out, worriedly, “Sugu!” However, just then, Suguha, using beyond human speeds, easily dodges out of the way of the assault while also counterattacking effectively, deleting four more Digimon, but then a legion of Ninjamon leap into the battle and unleash hundreds of ninja throwing stars. Suguha, moving her sword at incredible speeds, easily deflects every single one of the ninja throwing stars sent at her.

Taichi shout out, flabbergasted, “That’s impossible!”

Suguha says, “If that’s how you want to play it…” She then draws her other kitana-like sword and charges in for the attack where she quickly starts to cut down her vast legion of opponent Digimon, one after another, in a quick, efficient, and even ruthless manner using incredible speed, strength, and agility as well as dexterity to easily dodge and counter the attacks from her opponents while deleting one Digimon after another. The others are frozen still as Suguha is fighting AND defeating the Digimon legion on the ground single-handed while her two partners are winning the battle in the skies. However, at one point, Suguha puts her right sword in a certain ‘position’ and it starts to glow causing her to look at it in surprise. Before she can think about it, she performs a Slant, 1-hit One-Handed Sword Skill combo, against one of the Digimon and cutting the Digimon down in one blow.

Lisbeth asks, surprised, “A sword skill?” Suguha gives a confused look, but she quickly gets away from her opponents.

Suguha asks herself, “What was that?” Just then the device attached her left wrist activates and displays a holographic screen in which Suguha looks at what the screen is displaying causing her to gain a curious look. Suguha then leaps backwards a bit more and she closes her eyes in which she moves her arms/hands into a specific position causing both of her swords to glow.

Everyone else gasps in shock and Usagi says, stunned, “It can’t be!”

Asuna yells out, shocked, “Kirito-kun!” Kirito gives an extreme look of shock and the Digimon opposing Suguha give a confused look before charging at her, but then, Suguha gives off a powerful glow and she starts to grunt out as the ‘light’ from her swords become even brighter. Suguha’s eyes then shoot open, revealing a golden ‘glow’ coming from them, and she roars out, powerfully, as her hair grows longer, turned a golden-blond color, and becomes tied in a ponytail in which her outfit ‘transforms’ to exactly like Sailor Celestial in Eternal Sailor Scout form with her kitana-like swords ‘transforming’ into duplicates of Elucidator and Dark Repulsar that are glowing brightly and fiercely.

The others are once again stunned and flabbergasted in which Silica says, “No way! She looks like…like…!!”

Usagi says, in disbelief, “…A Sailor Scout.” Suguha, in her ‘current forms’, roars out as she performs Starburst Stream, the classic 16-hit Dual Wielding Sword Skill combo, but unlike the usual ‘attack’, she creates energy waves with each swipe of her swords in which her opponents, still charging despite the shock of Suguha’s ‘transformation’, can’t dodge in try and they roar out as they are engulfed by the waves and destroying nearly all of them expect for one, a Centarumon, runs away in fear, but Suguha unleashes the last strike of her attack, causing her Dark Repulser, to become like a ‘spear of light’ that impales the Digimon causing him to groan as he is deleted instantly.

(Sword Art Online Alicization music ‘Sacred Swords’ ends)

With the end of that fight, RizeGreymon and Crescemon finished off the aerial Digimon in the skies and RizeGreymon says, “Way to go, boss!”

The others are stunned silent by what they saw, but then Klein grabs Kirito, making Kirito face him, and Klein shouts out, “Dude, that’s your little sister?!”

Kirito replies, nervously, “Y-Yeah…I think.”

Klein tells Kirito, in a stunned voice, “Bro, you never said that your little sister was a badass super-human monster slaying swordswoman and possibly a Sailor Scout!”

Suguha’s voice then booms out, “That’s because things have changed since big brother was away and who are you calling a Sailor Scout pal?!” Everyone then looks towards Suguha, as her ‘form’ turns back to what she looked after she removed her hooded cloak, and her swords also revert back into the kitana-like swords that she was first using where Suguha then sheaths her swords away as her two Digimon partners land nearby as Suguha goes over to the group. As she looks at them, Suguha says, “It has been a long time, big brother.” As the two siblings look at each other, the others stare at them with Silica looking at a ‘certain part’ of Suguha’s form. Suguha then shouts out, sternly, “Now, what the heck are you doing in the Digital World?!” Afterwards, the whole scene dispels for our heroes and heroines and they are looking at the current time Sailor Celestial.

Naruto says, “One heck of a ‘family reunion’.”

Sailor Celestial says, with a nod, “You got that right.”

Sailor Sun asks, “So, you didn’t know that you were a Sailor Scout at that time?”

Sailor Pluto says, “It is most likely that she wasn’t fully awakened, but the ‘unusual power’ of this realm of the Digital World allowed her to tap into her powers through only in portions and temporary.”

Sailor Celestial says, plainly, “Most likely, using the power of Incarnation allowed to unconsciously taped into my ‘awakening’ powers.”

Kotone asks, curiously, “Incarnation?”

Sailor Celestial says, with a nod, “It is a ‘power’ that you can use in this world. Incarnation is the ‘ability’ to alter the state of the world through willpower. Basically, something that shouldn’t happen is happening because you are basically ‘saying’: Yes, this will happen. However, it is more than that. Your will has to be really…I mean REALLY strong to make this happen. You are willing this ‘event’ to happen with ABSOULTE will, confidence, and certainty because you are basically saying ‘no’ to the ‘will of the world’ and imposing your will over the ‘will of the world’.”

Yolei says, nervously, “I’m…getting dizzy.”

Sailor Moon says, “Trust us, we don’t get either.”

Davis says, with a nod, “No joke. We used it all the time and my brain still hurt trying to ‘figure it out’.”

Sailor Pluto says, “And when Suguha used the power of Incarnation, she managed to ‘tap’ into her ‘legacy’ as Sailor Celestial and when she had to use Incarnation, she had to use exceptional amount of willpower causing her to ‘tap’ into her ‘power’ which resulted in the change. From what we know, no one noticed her ‘transformations’ since she only has her partners when her ‘transformations’ usually happen.”

Sailor Celestial says, “My partners didn’t understand what was happening since they didn’t know what Sailor Scouts were…at the time. So, they didn’t say anything because of that point. I only first learned of it after I used that powerful Incarnation in front of my big brother and the others combing it with Sword Skills.”

Kazuto says, “When Aincrad became part of that ‘realm’ of the Digital World, you gained Sword Skills.”

Sailor Celestial says, “Not just me, but everyone in that ‘realm’ of the Digital World including Digimon that use weapons like swords, spears, and whatnot.”

Sailor Moon asks, shocked, “Really?” But then Sailor Moon trips and she yelps as she suffers from one of her ‘klutz attacks’ where one of her arms hits a floating crystal similar to the one that Sailor Celestial hit causing the crystal to glow brightly.

Sailor Mars yells out, annoyed, “What did you just do, Meatball Head?!” Soon after, the whole scene transforms into what looks like a small rural town that looks ABSOUTELY destroyed with wrecked homes, topped and/or destroyed electric/telephone poles, wrecked and/or burning cars, and everything in-between.

Sailor Venus asks, confused, “What is this?”

Tuxedo Mask says, “This must be from the memories of Sailor Moon’s counterpart.”

Sailor Saturn asks, curiously, “But what…?” As she asks, Sailor Saturn looks at her counterpart only to stop silent when Sailor Saturn sees her counterpart having a pale look on her face.

Sailor Venus says, nervously, “No way…” When the SMO-2 versions of our heroes and heroines, Sailor Scouts and Digidestined, human and Digimon alike, look at their counterparts, they see a lot of looks of fear

Sailor Mercury asks, confused and curiously, “What’s wrong?” Just then there is a massive and powerful monstrous/fiendish roar is heard and everyone looks to the source only to see Valkyrie Sailor Sun flying through the air as she crashes through the remains of the rural house causing the remains to collapse as she slams into the ground with such force that dust and debris are sent hundreds of feet into the air as what was left of the rural home was completely destroyed. When the smoke and dust cleared, a badly injured Valkyrie Sailor Sun is seen with blood dripping from her forehead and when she struggles to get to her feet, Sailor Sun holds her waist/chest in pain showing that she has broken ribs. Soon after, they are loud explosion style sounds as the area starts to shake in which everyone looks to see the monster/fiend from Suguha’s/Sailor Celestial’s nightmare, Ragnarök, fighting against Valkyrie Sailor Uranus with the other Sailor Scouts, minus Sailor Galaxy, Sailor Moon, and Sailor Celestial, scattered all around the area with all of them are suffering from different ‘levels’ of wounds/injuries. Sailor Uranus hits Ragnarök with powerful blows that are so strong that the ground shakes with great violence and using her speed to dodge the beast’s attempts to hit or grab her.

Sailor Uranus roars out, strongly and angrily, “What the fuck are you?! Go down already!” Sailor Uranus strikes Ragnarök with two more blows and avoids one of its punches, but the beast grabs Sailor Uranus by the neck and Sailor Uranus punches Ragnarök’s arm, however, the creature doesn’t let go at all and with a roar of power and fury, Ragnarök, bashes Sailor Uranus’ head against the ground several times before slamming her face against a damaged light-pole.

An injured Valkyrie Sailor Neptune, who has suffered a broken left arm, sees this and she yells out, horrified, “Uranus!” Ragnarök, hearing Sailor Neptune’s cry of horror, flings Sailor Uranus, who is unconscious from Ragnarök bashing her head against ‘stuff’, into Sailor Neptune causing them to fly through the air, just above the ground, before they slam into the side of a wretched car with the sheer force sending it rolling backwards until it was half-a-mile away while the two Outer Sailor Scouts collapses into a heap and into unconsciousness.

Sailor Jupiter screams out, in pure fury, “THAT’S IT!!!” Ragnarök turns to the source of Sailor Jupiter’s voice only for Valkyrie Sailor Jupiter to slam her armored feet into the creature’s face, slamming the back of his head into the ground, creating a massive crater in the process, and Sailor Jupiter then pummels Ragnarök, in the face, with punches that are so powerful that they cause the ground all around the wretched town to shake with the violence of a magnitude 4.0 earthquake! Sailor Jupiter yells out, in pure fury, “Die already, you worthless piece of crap! Die!” Sailor Jupiter only gets in several more punches before the creature grabs her in the face and flings her out of the massive crater, which has doubled in size due to the sheer power of Sailor Jupiter’s assault on Ragnarök, but before she regain her focus, the creature is on her in a blur and ruthlessly bashes and mauls Sailor Jupiter, who has no chance to defend herself at all, causing her to get a blackened left ear, bloody nose and lips, and more cuts, gashes, and bruises before she is backflipping into the air where she slams into the ground on her stomach with a ‘thud’. Ragnarök then ruthlessly slam down his right foot on Sailor Jupiter’s arms and hands which are lying in front of her due to her current position and Sailor Jupiter screams out in pain and agony as her lower hands and arms are crushed by the creature’s massive foot where they are broken in multiple place as well as crushing the armor of her lower arms and hands.

Sailor Star says, in horror, “Jupiter-chan!” Sailor Star struggles to get to her feet, but she yells out in pain as she holds her right leg where she is suffering an obvious broken leg bone while an unconscious and slightly mauled Sailor Orion is nearby. On the meanwhile, Ragnarök prepares to bash Sailor Jupiter’s head in for a killing blow and she closes her eyes.

Just then Sailor Moon’s and Sailor Celestial’s voices boom out, “NO!!!” Ragnarök turns to the voice only to get bashed in the face with such force that he is sent flying over ten miles away and bouncing on the ground five times before he stops. But after he stops, the creature is quickly back on its feet, however, Valkyrie Sailor Celestial appears in front of him and hits him with a punch that was so powerful that he is sent hundreds of feet into the sky while a 200 foot crater is formed in the ground under Sailor Celestial’s feet. Valkyrie Sailor Moon then comes in and lands a powerful kick that sends Ragnarök higher into the sky. When the creature stops ascending into the air, Sailor Celestial appears by Ragnarök, grabs the creature by his feet, and spins around so fast that she becomes like a twister. After a few seconds, Ragnarök is sent rocketing through the sky with such speed that he causes multiple sonic booms before he slams into an area of the Pacific Ocean with such force that a column of water is sent thousands to tens of thousands of feet into the sky! Soon afterwards, Sailor Moon and Sailor Celestial return to the other Sailor Scouts, where only a few of them are conscious and many of them have SERIOUS injuries, in which Tuxedo Mask and the Digidestined, human and Digimon, have also arrived on the horrific scene where Davis and Tai are carrying the injured Sailor Sun.

Tai asks, worriedly, “Kari…?”

Sailor Sun says, weakly, “I’m better off than many of the others…it was horrible…it…it just ripped through us like nothing…took our combined powers…with ease…”

Davis tells Sailor Sun, concerned, “Easy, Kari-chan.”

Yolei says, worriedly, “Oh, Kami…”

Tuxedo Mask says, having Mercury’s computer in his hands and using it, “Indeed. The injuries…are horrific. Sailor Star and Sailor Sun are among the least injured and they have broken bones.”

Sailor Moon says, worriedly, “Celestial!”

Sailor Celestial says, with a nod and concerned expression, “On it!”

Sailor Mars, her armored badly ripped apart, blackened right eye, multiple cuts on her cheeks, says, weakly, “No…No time, Meatball Head…You…You have to stop him…”

Sailor Moon kneels in front of Sailor Mars and she says, worriedly, “Don’t talk, Mars…”

Sailor Mars grabs Sailor Moon by the collar, Sailor Moon can see the pure fear and terror in Sailor Mars’ eyes, and Sailor Mars yells out, grunting in pain, “Listen to me! This…This monster…No, this beast…it…it has no rhyme…no reason…it just kills…because it wants…No…this is beyond a want…or need…it has to kill…it has to kill because it has to…there is nothing, but pure anger and fury…in its very DNA…we need to stop it now…it is going to kill…it is going to SLAUGHTER…everything on the planet…it is going to slaughter EVERY LIVING THING…we need to stop him…!!” Sailor Mars coughs out before falling into unconsciousness with Sailor Moon having a pure look of horror and terror realizing what Sailor Mars’ ‘senses’ had ‘detected’ from Ragnarök.
Joe goes over to Sailor Mars, looks at her, and he says, plainly, “She is still alive, but she is really in a bad way.”

Sailor Celestial’s visor then activates, and Sailor Moon asks her, “What is it?”

Sailor Celestial looks in the direction that Ragnarök was sent flying and she says, shocked, “Damn! He has already recovered, and he is just some seconds away from another population center!”

There are gasps of shock and Davis says, seriously, “We need to go after him!”

Sailor Moon says, shaking her head, “No, we can’t be sure that your powers will protect you from his ‘death field’!”

Sailor Celestial says, “No joke!”

Sailor Moon tells Sailor Celestial, “I’ll go after that…that fiend! Celestial, you get the girls back up and join me as quickly as possible!”

Tuxedo Mask yells out, horrified, “No, you can’t! Look at what it did to the rest of the girls! You can’t do it alone!”

Sailor Celestial says, “She won’t be alone! I’m going with her!” Sailor Moon looks at Sailor Celestial and Sailor Celestial says, “Darien is right! We are the most powerful Sailor Scouts, but it is going to take the both of us to have any chance of crushing that freak of nature! Look at what it did to the rest of the girls! It has to be the two of us at FULL power to have any chance of victory! You know it!” Sailor Moon can’t help to nod, knowing that Sailor Celestial is right. Sailor Celestial tells Davis, “Call Washu. I’m sure that she may have something to help the others recover from this…this horror.”

Davis says, with a nod, “Yeah! Good point!”

Sailor Moon says, “Focus on Saturn. If you get her healed and back up, she will be able to healed the others. Her healing power will work as long as they are alive! You need to hurry!” Sailor Moon looks at Tuxedo Mask, with pure fear and concern in her eyes, and she just weakly smiles to try to say that things will be okay, but she knows that she is failing. Sailor Moon looks at Sailor Celestial and Sailor Celestial nods her head with them then roaring out with power, where, in a flash, the two of them transform into their Valhallan Valkyrie Sailor Scout forms where they teleport away before anyone could stop them. The ‘scenes’ then start to switch as both Valhallan Valkyrie Sailor Scouts desperately try to destroy Ragnarök, but the creature was fighting them to a deadly standstill and causing devastation as they battled especially in Tokyo with Odaiba and Juuban districts being the most devastated areas of Tokyo.

Sailor Mars asks, shocked, “What is this?”

Sailor Orion replies, “Our nightmare.” When the SMO-2 versions of our heroes and heroines look at their counterparts, Sailor Orion says, having a plain expression, but the ‘scars’ in her eyes are evident, “He came out of nowhere and started causing death and destruction along the Pacific coast of North America. When we heard about it, we came in to stop him and we weren’t prepared at all for the power and fury that this creature had. It just tossed us aside like nothing just as you saw.”

Sailor Venus asks, “Why didn’t you use your powers against him?”

Sailor Neptune says, solemnly, “It has the ability to absorb magic based attacks.”

Sailor Mercury asks, shocked, “It does?”

Sailor Mercury says, solemnly, “Yes. In fact, we had combined our powers to hit it with a focused attack and it absorbed our combined assault without even hesitating in the least.”

Tuxedo Mask asks, shocked, “Even your Sailor Moon and Sailor Celestial?”

Tuxedo Mask replies, with a nod, “Yes. The only one that wasn’t with us was Sailor Galaxy, but she was on an important mission with Naruto and Sakura at the time.”

Sailor Galaxy says, with a horrified look, “I’ve known about what happened for over two months, but I didn’t think that you went through such horror.”

Sakura tells Sailor Galaxy, “I doubt that you would have made any difference. Sailor Moon and Sailor Celestial had the ability to use chakra and they used it during the fight, but with every blow that they hit Ragnarök, the fiend came back with just as strong blow.”

Sailor Moon asks, nervously, “Ragnarök?”

Sailor Moon says, with a nod and solemn tone, “That’s right. That’s what he called it. Ragnarök, the ‘doomsday’ of the Norse Gods.”

Sailor Uranus says, with a nervous expression that she is trying to hide, “It was a most appropriate name. That fiend became our nightmare. It wasn’t like our other enemies. It wasn’t for conquest, dominating, and or even just basic energy absorption like youma. It was a living ‘doomsday machine’. All that it was…was death. Death. Murder. Slaughter. That’s all that Ragnarök was.”

Sailor Moon says, with a fearful expression on her face, “No matter what Celestial and I did…we couldn’t stop it…our magic based attacks useless…our magic-based weapons…worthless…we focused our power in our physical abilities…strength…speed…agility…but no matter how hard we hit him…with blows that obliterate skyscrapers even…Ragnarök…would come back…and fight even harder…we…we couldn’t stop it…” Tuxedo Mask holds Sailor Moon as the scene then ‘turns’ into Shibuya where Sailor Moon and Sailor Celestial, their armor damaged and showing multiple cuts, bruises, and other ‘injuries’, are desperately fighting Ragnarök around the area of Shibuya Station with Sailor Celestial being sent through a building in which Sailor Moon rams her kneecap into the creature’s waist, kicking him in the chin, knocking off some of the ‘bones’ coming out of its chin, and then landing several powerful kicks to his face, but Ragnarök by grabbing Sailor Moon and throwing her to the ground, hard, causing an imprint of her to form in the concrete ground. Ragnarök then forces Sailor Moon to her feet, bashes in the chin several times, and then hits her with a powerful blow to her armored waist, causing her waist armor to crack even more, knock the wind out of her, and send her rocketing through several buildings with her crashing into the last building which collapses right on the top of her!

Sailor Celestial screams out, angrily, “That’s enough!!” Ragnarök turns to face Sailor Celestial’s voice only to get his face rammed by bottom of both of Sailor Celestial, sending flying end over end, and Sailor Celestial then slams Ragnarök in the back, dislodging more ‘bones’ coming out of his back, and slamming into the ground so hard that a large crater is formed from the impact. Sailor Celestial then grabs both of Ragnarök’s arms and pulls them behind his back in which the creature roars out in pain with Sailor Celestial shouting out, angrily, “Fall, you bastard! Just fall already!” Just then there is a loud and sickening ‘SNAP’ and Ragnarök gives a massive roar of pain and agony as Sailor Celestial completely dislocates his shoulders entirely with Sailor Celestial still pulling on his arms. But then Ragnarök gives off a massive roar of anger, fury, and power as he starts to glow a dark orange-red color causing Sailor Celestial to become confused before she yells out as she is sent flying about a mile before she lands on the ground with a ‘thud’, however, she manages to get back on her feet to watch as Ragnarök’s arms get fixed with loud ‘snaps’ as he is engulfed by orange-red aura that grows stronger causing not only this area of Japan to shake and shutter, greatly and violently, but the violent shaking, which rivals the highest magnitude earthquakes, is being felt from all of Japan and reaching into mainland Asia, namely Korea, China, and Russia nearby.

Patamon asks, “What’s that?”

Gatomon says, “Another major reason that we called that creature Ragnarök.”

Izzy says, “It was detected by all types of ‘sensors’ all over the world and I was ‘tapped’ into them via my computer. Ragnarök was about to unleash an attack that rivaled the impact of the meteor that killed the dinosaurs.”

The SMO-2 universe heroes and heroines gasp in shock and Matt shouts out, stunned, “No way!”

Tuxedo Mask says, solemnly, “Yes, it was. If it didn’t destroy Tokyo completely, it would have sent an ash cloud that would have covered the Earth and it would have been a world-wide extinction event. Plus, if the ‘explosion’ that it released didn’t do it, Japan is near the ‘Ring of Fire’ and it is possible that the shockwave, energy wave, or both that it would have produced would have ignited the plenty of volcanos in the ‘ring’ including Mount Fuji itself. In any case, it was truly a case of the ‘end of the world’.”

Izzy says, “I had managed to get this information to Sailor Celestial and she then cut communications…” Everyone then looks at the scene where they see Sailor Celestial draw one of her swords and uses her powers to cover the blade in Energist crystal where she charges at Ragnarök, dodging one of its punches, and with one quick swipe, Sailor Celestial manages to cut off one of Ragnarök’s arms causing it to roar out in massive pain and agony where Sailor Celestial smiles at this. But then Sailor Celestial manages to dodge a punch from Ragnarök’s remaining arm, however, Ragnarök, in a blur, spins around and the ‘bone spikes’ of his remaining arm rip into right side of Sailor Celestial, cutting and smashing through the armor, and ripping into the flesh of Sailor Celestial’s side causing her to scream in pure agony and pain.

Some distance away, Tuxedo Mask is helping civilians of Shibuya, trying to get away from the battle, hears the scream and he yells out, horrified, “Celestial!” Back with Sailor Celestial, she instinctively holds her torn side before she is kicked away by Ragnarök causing her to go several miles and bounce off the ground a few times before slamming into the ground with a nasty ‘thud’. The energy coursing through and from Ragnarök then seems to increase in intensity shown as the ‘energy’ coming from his form is ‘crackling’ faster and with more strength especially a glowing area in the center portion of his chest where this energy is concentrated. Ragnarök roars out as  his ‘world ending attack’ is close to be unleashed in which the arm that he lost seemly is starting to grow back. But then Sailor Moon, battered and armored fake suffering very nasty damage, but still alive and able to fight, reappears and hits Ragnarök with a series of powerful kicks and trying to twist Ragnarök’s head, trying to snap his neck and destroy the beast. However, Ragnarök manages to grab Sailor Moon by one of her legs and ruthlessly bashes her against the concrete ground several times before letting go of her. Sailor Moon regains her senses only to see Ragnarök, close to unleashing his ‘doomsday attack’ and his missing arm replaced by a massive ‘bone spike’, aiming said new ‘bone spike’ at her and preparing to impale and kill her on the spot.

But then there is a massive ‘boom’ and Sailor Celestial’s voice screams out, “NO!!!” Ragnarök looks to see Sailor Celestial rocketing towards him at super-sonic speeds, her sword with its blade covered in Energist crystal in her left hand, and her right hand and lower arm covered in the same crystal. Nearly instantly, Sailor Celestial plows her sword right through Ragnarök’s chest, right where the energy for its ‘doomsday attack’ is concentrating, while Sailor Celestial’s Energist covered fist slammed into Ragnarök’s head in which each blow has the force of multiple Tsar Bomba, 50 megaton thermonuclear bombs denoted by the Soviet Union in the 1960s, in which the impact of Sailor Celestial ‘hitting’ Ragnarök causing an IMMENSE shockwave ‘explosion’ causing Sailor Moon to scream as she is sent flying from the explosion that devastates the area of Shibuya with the shockwave obliterating cars, vehicles, and even buildings where full-sized skyscrapers in this districted are pulverized into dust while a mushroom dust cloud rises hundreds to thousands of feet into the air similar to what happened when a nuclear bomb is denotated.

The SMO-2 universe versions of our Sailor Scouts and Digidestined are shocked and stunned with Sailor Saturn says, after several seconds of silence, “My Kami…” However, Sailor Moon turns and buries her face into Tuxedo Mask’s chest while Kazuto turns his head away as the scene shows the destructive aftermath of the final clash between Sailor Celestial and Ragnarök showing the practically destroyed Shibuya. But then everyone hears Sailor Moon’s cry of pain, horror, and sorrow in which everyone looks to witness the scene of Sailor Moon kneeling in front of Suguha’s lifeless form with Tuxedo Mask along with the rest of the recently recovered Sailor Scouts and the Digidestined, human and Digimon, with their looks of pure horror, sorrow, disbelief, and ‘general pain’ at what they are seeing.

Sailor Uranus says, “We call this day ‘Ragnarök’, but not because of that…beast…but this was the day…that Sailor Celestial…died…”

The SMO-2 universe heroes and heroines gasp in shock and Sailor Uranus asks, shocked, “Your Sailor Celestial…died…?!”

Sailor Mars roars out, angrily, “Yeah, DEAD!!! You heard that right!”

Sailor Galaxy says, concerned, “Please calm down, Mars-chan!”

Sakura says, strongly, “Yeah, cool it!”

Sailor Mars gives a surprised look and she says, solemnly, “Sorry.”

Naruto says, with a solemn look, “Don’t worry about it, believe it. All of us got ‘whammed’ by this.” Looking at the ‘replay’ of Sailor Celestial’s death around two months ago, Naruto’s arms tremble as one of his hands turns into a fist causing Sailor Galaxy and Sakura to look at him with concern. The scene then switches to what looks like manmade catacombs of white marble.

Sailor Pluto says, “That looks like the royal tombs in the Moon Kingdom.”

Sailor Pluto tells her SMO-2 counterpart in reply, “That’s because they are. The royal tombs of the Moon Kingdom in our universe.” Soon after, the scene shows Sailor Uranus, Sailor Jupiter, Davis, and Naruto carrying what looks like a see-through coffin made of crystal containing the lifeless form of Suguha, dressed in a royal gown similar to what she wears as Princess Selene, followed by the rest of our heroes and heroines as well as family and friends including the Kirigaya family, all of them dressed in a mixture of Asian and Western funeral ‘attire’, as they follow the coffin and its ‘carriers’ as they place Suguha’s lifeless form within an empty tomb. After a ‘final service’, the tomb is sealed by what looks like a marble stone wall sealing the tomb.

Sailor Orion says, “However, despite what it looks, it wasn’t Suguha’s ‘final end’.”

Sailor Orion asks, curiously, “What do you mean?”

Sailor Venus asks, nervously, “Do you know about American manga story known as ‘Reign of the Supermen’?”

Davis asks, confused, “What’s that supposed to mean?” Just then the scene switches to a television showing an image of Stella, in her ‘Sailor C’ form, Alita in her armor, Elysium, and Yuuko, in her ‘Cyborg Sailor Celestial’ form, with the words ‘New Celestials Era’ in front of them.

Yolei retorts, in disbelief, “You have got to be kidding me.”

Yolei tells her SMO-2 counterpart, “I know how you feel, girlfriend. I was getting the feeling of being in anime or fanfiction of an anime or manga.”

Kazuto says, “Four ‘counterparts’ to Sugu appeared in the middle of the month around a few weeks after…after that day…” Sailor Star hugs Kazuto as the others start to remember when they first met Suguha’s/Sailor Celestial’s ‘doppelgangers’…

Flashback: Around Mid-April, SAO Memorial Academy

In the main yard of SAO Memorial Academy, we find the students, currently made up of SAO survivors that were middle to high school at the time that they were trapped in SAO, all around while Kazuto is just sitting on the bench with a solemn look on his face.

Just then a familiar female voice says, “Kirito-kun…” Kazuto looks up to see both Asuna and Serena walking over to him and sitting on the bench with him.

Kazuto says, with a weak smile, “Hey, Asuna…Serena…”

Asuna takes one of Kazuto’s hands and she asks, greatly concerned, “Are you going to be okay, Kirito-kun?”

Kazuto says, with a weak smile, “Yeah…why wouldn’t I be? We got Sugu back…and we put her in a place where she will be safe…forever…” Tears start to stream down his eyes and Asuna pulls him into a hug.

Just then there is a lot of ‘chatter’ being heard about the students and Serena asks, looking over, “What’s going on?”

One student yells out, “No way!”

Another student says, “It’s true! I talked with him! He got attacked and saved by her after she saved that couple!”

A third student yells out, “It can’t be possible! I mean…She…She’s…!!”

The second student that spoke shouts out, “It’s true! Has anyone spoken to him about this?! Someone has to tell him that his sister is alive!”

Serena thinks in her mind, overhearing this and shocked, “What?!” Just then explosions hit all around the academy and everyone looks to see a huge orange-red skinned youma that looks like a female Rambo, wielding two miniguns attached to a ‘backpack’, starting to rampage.
The female youma yells out, “Run, humans! Run!” The female Rambo youma starts to fire its weapons and the student run towards the building in fear.

Asuna says, annoyed, “Oh, great!”

Serena says, seriously, “Asuna!” Asuna nods her head and she and Serena prepare to sneak away to transform, but then the female Rambo youma roars out in pain as it is hit in the back by an energy blast.

The female youma roars out, “Who did that?”

Just then a familiar female voice shouts out, “I did, youma!” Everyone looks to the source to see Elysium, as the ‘visor/mask wearing Sailor Celestial’, floats down in front of everyone.

Kazuto, Asuna, and Serena give flabbergasted looks and Asuna yells out, stunned, “N-No way!”

Kazuto asks, lowly and shocked, “Sugu…?”

The female youma yells out, stunned, “Y-You?! B-But you…you’re dead!”

Elysium replies, “No, you are.” Elysium draws her swords, zips over to the female youma, and destroys the youma’s weapons with one swipe of her swords.

The female youma shouts out, stunned, “It can’t be!” The youma then roars out in anger and tries to grab Elysium, but she leaps into the air, creates a sphere of energy from the tips of her two swords, and slams the sphere of energy into the youma causing it to roar out in pain and agony as it is vaporized leaving only a burn mark on the ground where it was standing.
After a few seconds of stunned silence, one of students shouts out, “It’s her!” Elysium looks to see the academy’s students looking at her.

Elysium yells out, “Is everyone all right?”

Another student yells out, “Y-Yes, but you…are you…?”

Elysium replies, with a nod, “Yes, I’m back.” Elysium then takes the skies and once high into the air, she zooms off creating a sonic boom in her wake. Everyone is shocked, especially Serena and Kazuto, in which Serena and Kazuto look at each other, at what they had just seen and what happened.

Flashback: Around Mid-April, Tokyo, Nishitokyo

Some distance away from SAO Memorial Academy, Kazuto, Asuna, Rika, Kotone, Keiko, Hiyori, Serena, Tai, Matt, TK, Ken, Yolei, Jun, Davis, Kari, and the Digimon partners of the Digidestined members of the group are walking along the sidewalks and discussing about what just happened earlier that day.

Yolei says, shocked, “I can’t believe what I saw!”

Ken tells Yolei, “I don’t think that anyone can blame you.”

Gabumon asks, “Was that really…her?”

Tai says, looking at Kazuto and Serena, “There are only two people that can answer that question.”

When everyone else looks at Kazuto and Serena, Keiko asks, “Kirito…Kazuto-san?”

Kotone asks, curiously and concerned, “What do you think?”

Kazuto, after a few moments, responds, “She looks like Sugu…but she isn’t Sugu. Her eyes…They are…too cold…”

Rika asks, confused, “How could you tell? She was wearing a mask! How could you see her eyes?”

Serena tells Rika in reply, “We could tell, Rika. We could tell.”

Hiyori asks, curiously, “If it was Suguha, why would she need a mask in the first place?”

Kotone says, with a nod, “That’s a good point.” But then they hear a scream, and everyone looks to see a young man fall into the street with a bus heading straight for him in which the bus won’t be able to stop in time.

Jun yells out, horrified, “Watch out!” But before the bus could run over the young man, a figure zooms him and slams into the front of the bus, crushing in its front, and stopping dead in its tracks. When the figure could be seen, it is Alita, in her armor as the ‘Armored Sailor Celestial’, holding back the bus. Everyone on the sidewalks, including our heroes and heroines in the area, look at Alita in shock and when she knows that the bus is stopped, she turns to look around and she says, turning back to the young man that she saved, “Be careful, okay? I can’t be everywhere at once! Later!” Alita activates her ‘jet boots’ and using the ‘stabilizers’ in her hands, she rockets off into the sky.

After a few moments of stunned silence, Jun asks, shocked, “Another one?” Just then Davis’ D-Terminal beeps and he takes out in which his eyes widen as he looks at what it says on the screen of his D-Terminal.

Kari asks, “What’s up, Dai-kun?”

Davis says, seriously, “Make that four! Naruto has got a report of two more doppelgangers of Suguha spotted!”

Everyone looks at Davis as they gasp in shock and Kazuto asks, shocked, “What?!”

Davis says, with a plain tone, “Yeah! And one of them has been spotted in Odaiba right now!”

Tai tells Davis, “You and Kari get to Odaiba on the double!”

Davis tells Tai, with a nod, “You got it, Tai!” Davis looks at Kari and she nods her head in which the two of them take off with Veemon and Gatomon behind them.

Gatomon shouts out, as she runs off, “Right!”

After Davis, Kari, and their two Digimon partners head off, Yolei asks, “What in the heck is happening?”

Ken says, seriously, “That’s a good question, Yolei. And we need to find out fast.” Asuna looks at Kazuto and Serena in which both of them are looking at each other with confused looks on their faces.

Flashback: Around Mid-April, Tokyo, Odaiba

In the middle of the Odaiba District, within its park, there is a big scene as a large amount of news reporters are on the scene of a sight with a massive cyclops youma lying down on the ground in the center of an imprint of itself with none other than Stella, in her ‘Sailor C’ form, on its back.

Stella/Sailor C says, sounding a lot like Sailor Celestial herself, “Thank you! Thank you, everyone!” Stella blows a kiss and she yells out, “Anyway, while I would love to stay and chat, you know how it is with a hero girl like myself! Things to do, villains to have their butts’ kicked, and all! Catch you later! And let this be a warning: Sailor C is on the job!” The clone of Suguha/Sailor Celestial then takes off into the distance and some distance away, Sailor Sun and Angewomon are watching this in which the two of them look at each other and as Sailor C zooms off, we find Davis, riding on the back of AeroVeedramon, watching her intently with a serious look on his face.

Flashback: Around Mid-April, Tokyo, Juuban

Later that same day, we find all of our heroes and heroines, minus the Outer Sailor Scouts, assembled together in front of Crown Game Arcade with Davis, Kari, Veemon, and Gatomon explaining about what happened in Odaiba a while ago.

Lita says, shaking her head, “It can’t be her! Her outfit is WAY too different!”

Gatomon says, with a nod, “And her personality seems a bit…off.”

Shion asks, “Off?”

Gatomon says, with a plain tone, “She was showboating.”

Hinata asks, curiously, “Showboating?”

Sakura tells Hinata, “Showing off, Hinata.”

Rika says, “Something that we know that Suguha wouldn’t do.”

Mina asks, curiously, “By the way, where are the Outers?”

Darien says, “They said that they would be here.” Just then there is an explosion nearby and everyone looks to see the four Valkyrie Outer Sailor Scouts leaping away as they are ‘swarmed’ by a group of HiAndromon.

Mimi says, nervously, “I think that’s them.”

Tentomon says, “Oh no! That’s HiAndromon! They are Mega Digimon!”

Tai says, seriously, “And a whole lot of them!”

Davis asks, seriously, “Well, what are we waiting for?!” As other Sailor Scouts and Digidestined prepare to assist, the Outer Sailor Scouts, Sailor Neptune reflects one of the HiAndromon’s attacks with her Aqua Mirror.

One of the HiAndromon says, in a robotic voice, “You may have stopped one of our attacks, human, but you won’t stop them all!”

Just then a familiar female voice shouts out, “Then how about I take a crack at it?” One of the HiAndromon is hit in the back by flame assault and everyone looks to see Yuuko, in her ‘Cyborg Sailor Celestial’ form, through our heroes and heroines don’t know that it is Yuuko at the time, float down in front of everyone.

Sailor Uranus asks, shocked, “What the?!”

Another HiAndromon says, “You will pay for your interference, cyborg entity!”

“Atomic Ray!”

The HiAndromon fires its red energy beam at Yuuko, but she easily dodges out of the way and she says, with a plain tone, “My turn, scrap heap.” Yuuko’s right arm then ‘morphs’ into an energy cannon in which she fires a ray that deletes the HiAndromon on impact causing the other HiAndromon to flinch and hesitate, which is bad news for them, where Yuuko takes out Dark Repulser into her open hand in which she cuts down in quick session.

After she is done, Sailor Uranus yells out, “Who the heck you are?!”

Yuuko responds, with a plain tone, “Who do you think? I’m Sailor Celestial, Uranus.”

Sailor Uranus says, plainly and showing a ‘not convinced’ expression on her face, “Got three others saying that too.”

Yuuko says, with a plain tone, “I’ve obviously noticed.” Yuuko looks to see the others coming in and she says, “And you’ll see that I’m the real deal soon enough. Later.” Yuuko then teleport away before anyone could say anything or stop her.

Rika says, plainly, “And that’s four.”

Keiko asks, “What do we do now?”

Sailor Uranus says, “You know what we have got to do now.” Everyone then looks at Kazuto and Serena and the two of them nod their heads in unison knowing what Sailor Uranus is implying.

End Flashback; Return to the Present

Back in the present, Sailor Moon tells the SMO-2 universe version of herself and her group, “We went to Suguha’s tomb…Her second tomb actually. We had to construct a second tomb on Earth and lay her to rest there…for reasons.” The SMO-2 universe heroes and heroines just nod their heads, knowing that it was a painful memory, and Sailor Moon says, plainly, “Once there, we found that Suguha’s coffin was empty.”

There are gasps of surprise from SMO-2 group and Sailor Neptune asks, “Does that mean…?”

Tuxedo Mask says, with a nod, “In a way, yes. It is a complex story, but none of those four were the real Suguha. The young lady in the armor designed like Suguha was Alita, a person that Suguha knows well, Sailor C was in fact a clone of her…”

Sailor Celestial asks, surprised, “They actually cloned me…I mean, my counterpart?”

Izzy replies, with a nod, “Yep. We confirmed that with test. Sailor C is an exact clone of Suguha.”

Kazuto says, with a stern expression, “However, like the Superman storyline, the cyborg doppelganger was a ‘bad girl’. In fact, she was none other than Yuuko.”
The SMO-2 group gives looks of shock and Sailor Uranus says, with a sneer, “I get it. A plot to ruin your Sailor Celestial’s name by posing as her.”

Davis says, with a nod, “Bingo, but like in that famous DC story, her plot went to down the drain.” Davis then points ahead and everyone looks to see that scene has changed to Suguha’s/Sailor Celestial’s ‘pubic return’ when our heroes and heroines were fighting Yuuko with it showing Suguha transforming into Ark Valkyrie Sailor Celestial for the first time with her battle with Yuuko along with the rest of our heroes and heroines battling with her.

Tuxedo Mask says, “Elysium, the ‘counterpart’ to Sailor Celestial with the visor-like mask, was the one that took Suguha from her second tomb and brought her to a secret fortress constructed in Japan around the end of the Silver Millennium due to it containing a ‘spring’ or something like filled with mysterious chemicals that could heal any wound, even fatal ones, as long as the person was alive. Normally, it shouldn’t have helped, but the healing chemicals ‘blended’ with Suguha’s powers as Sailor Celestial and it completely regenerated her body, restoring it, and reviving her.”

Sailor Venus says, excitedly, “Awesome! It looks like she also got a new Sailor Scout form in the process! Awesome!”

Sailor Venus says, with a grin, “I know! My favorite part is when she wacked her in the face! I still get a kick remembering that part!”

Sailor Jupiter says, with a smirk, “I think that plenty of us do!”

Naruto says, with a smirk, “Believe it!”

Sailor Moon asks, curiously, “If she is okay, why isn’t she here with you?”

Just then a familiar female voice responds, “Maybe I can tell you.” Just then the whole scene ‘shatters’ apart returning the area to ‘normal’ and everyone looks to see Yuuko floating down in front of them.

Tai says, with a sneer, “You.”

Sailor Celestial says, “If it isn’t my counterpart’s ‘evil copycat’.”

Yuuko says, with a sneer on her expression, “It seems like every version of the Suguha is similar…including their mouths. You are so confident. How would you be without your powers? Your counterpart…my Suguha is currently crippled due to her classic reckless actions…”

Yolei says, nastily, “Actions that she had to take before you destroy all of existence, you mass-murdering insane bitch!”

Yuuko gives Yolei an annoyed look, in which, Yolei, not intimated by Yuuko in the least, glares back with Yuuko saying, ignoring Yolei, “And now, she has temporary lost her powers and she is hiding like a coward…” Sailor Moon’s and Kazuto’s eyes narrow

Sailor Uranus retorts, interrupting Yuuko, “You, all of people, are calling Sailor Celestial a coward? Have you looked in the mirror? Hiding behind a warped version of face? The sign of a coward if I have seen one and I’ve seen plenty of cowards.”

Yuuko glares at Sailor Uranus and Tuxedo Mask says, “Glare at us all that you want, but the truth is the truth. You are a murder and a true coward unlike Suguha. A liar as well. You keep up claims that this is so-called ‘justice’ for your family. This isn’t about your family. This is about you. And Suguha isn’t to blame for what you are. You are. And you are alone, and it is the basic truth, so, I believe that it is a good idea to stop blaming others for your sins.”

Yuuko gives a greatly enraged glare and she says, plainly, “You have one big mouth. I wonder if your ‘princess’ is the reason behind it. If I want to hear only screams of pain and agony, I should make screams of pain and agony come from your mouth…” Yuuko then gasps and holds her throat as she is being choked by some ‘unknown force’.

Sailor Sun asks, confused, “Huh?”

Naruto’s voice booms out, “Uh oh!” Everyone looks towards Naruto only to find him looking at Sailor Moon, who’s right hand is out and clenched somewhat with an uncharacteristic dark glint in her eyes.

Davis says, nervously when he sees, “Oh, yeah! Uh oh is right!”

TK says, with a nod and nervous tone, “Big time!”

Sailor Moon says, in an uncharacteristic dangerously calm voice, “You know, you should know when to SHUT UP.” Sailor Moon then quickly moves her arm down causing Yuuko to slam face-first into the ground and Sailor Moon, obviously using Force powers, being to fling Yuuko around, slamming her into the ground multiple times, and she then uses a powerful Force Push to send Yuuko flying into a ‘crystal mountain’ which shatters into powder onto Yuuko’s form impacting it.

Sailor Jupiter says, shocked, “Whoa!”

Yolei says, stunned, “Whoa is right! I didn’t know that Star Wars would be involved here!”

Naruto says, nervously, “Yeah, a few of us have Force based powers.”

Sakura says, looking at Sailor Moon, “But she is going into the ‘Dark Side’ right now.” Just then there is another loud ‘boom’, and everyone looks to see Yuuko leap out of destroyed ‘crystal mountain’ where she goes back in front of our heroes and heroines with an enraged look in her eyes.

Yuuko says, plainly, “That hurt.”

Naruto says, annoyed, “Good.” Yuuko gives Naruto an annoyed look, snaps her fingers, and the remains of the crystal mountain that was destroyed by Yuuko slamming into it start to float off the ground in which they ‘reform’ into hundreds to thousands of exact duplicates of the villainess in front of our heroes and heroines.

Tails says, stunned, “Whoa!”

Bunnie says, amazed, “Oh my tarnation!”

Sora says, nervously, “T-That’s new.”

Yuuko says, plainly, “Kill them.”

Naruto says, strongly, “I don’t think so.” Naruto then unleashes his chakra cloak and creates five Shadow Clones without using the classic hand signs.

Sailor Galaxy says, amazed, “Wow, Naruto-kun.”

Naruto says, with a wide sly smirk, “That’s only the start, Hinata-chan.” Naruto then uses two chakra arms to create a massive Rasengan with the five clones adding elemental chakra to it causing Yuuko and her ‘duplicates’ to stop in their tracks causing Naruto to yell out, “Saturn-chan, prepare to put up a shield!” Sailor Saturn and her SMO-2 counterpart nod their heads in unison despite them, along with a lot of our heroes and heroines, being shocked at what Naruto is doing.

“Elemental Style: Elemental Super-Nova Rasengan!”

Naruto swings his chakra arms forward, unleashing the immense sphere of elemental chakra, and he yells out, “Everyone down! Saturn-chan, shields up!” Immediately, all of our heroes and heroines brace themselves while both version of Sailor Saturn create a powerful shield with Sailor Celestial reinforcing it, greatly, while Yuuko just glares as the immense attacks slams into her and her duplicates causing them to be engulfed in an immense explosion that devastates much of the Crystalize Maze that creates a mushroom cloud of dust and smoke that rises tens to hundreds of thousands of feet into the sky. When the smoke and dust finally die down after a while, we find our heroes and heroines protected in a large and very powerful shield, shown by barely even flickering, while in the middle of crater that’s 20 miles long and wide and several miles deep.

Sonic says, amazed, “Whoa! What a blast!”

Yolei and her SMO-2 counter shout out in unison, annoyed, “Are you kidding us?!”

Sailor Uranus shouts out, irritated, “You are crazy!”

Sailor Uranus says, plainly and annoyed, “He’s Naruto Uzumaki Namikaze, that’s who.”

Sakura says, with a nod, “That’s for sure.”

Davis says, nervously, “Well, it got the job done.”

TK says, with a nod, “No joke.”

Ken says, “Don’t be too sure. Remember, Yuuko is now like the Cyborg Superman and her ‘true self’ is energy and energy can’t be destroyed.”

Izzy says, with a nod, “It is a law of science.”

Sailor Moon asks, “So, you think that she survived?”

Tuxedo Mask says, “We KNOW that she survived. This is most likely just an ‘annoyance’ as she tries to reform a new body.”

Tails then says, pointing ahead, “Hey, look at that!” Everyone looks at where Tails is pointing, and they look to see what looks like a large ‘haze’ with a glowing fragment of Energist in the middle.

Kotone asks, curiously, “Is that…?”

Sailor Mercury says, with a nod, “Yes, it is a fragment of the Energist crystal.”

After both versions of Sailor Saturn lower the shield, Sonic asks, with a grin, “So, what we waiting for?!” But before Sonic could race off, Sailor Uranus manages to step in front of him to stop Sonic from racing off.

Sailor Uranus says, “Whoa there, hedgehog!”

Sonic says, annoyed, “Hey!”

Sally tells Sonic, with a sigh, “Sonic, do you not see that ‘haze’ over there? Doesn’t that say racing into it is a bad idea?”

Sailor Mercury says, her visor activated and using her computer, “That ‘haze’ is actually warping the fabric of space-time. I don’t know what kind of effects that it would have on anyone, but I believe that it wouldn’t be good.”

Gabumon says, “That’s for sure.”

Patamon says, with a nod, “Yeah.”

Wormmon asks, “Can we get through it?”

Sailor Mercury doesn’t say a word for a few seconds and she then says, “There is a possibility…”

Tuxedo Mask asks, “What is it?”

Sailor Mercury says, looking at Sailor Celestial, “I’m going to need her help.”

Sailor Celestial asks, curiously, “What’s up?” As Sailor Mercury starts to explain about her plan and why it is going to need Sailor Celestial, there are plenty of the others that are looking towards Sailor Moon and they, especially a certain Earth Prince, can’t help to feel concern for Sailor Senshi and Princess of the Moon.

Early June 2026, SMO-2 Universe, Outside of Earth’s orbit

Some distance away from Earth, hidden on the dark side of the moon, we find the USS Enterprise-A hidden in the ‘shadow’ of the dark side of the moon and on the bridge, we find the bridge crew along with Washu looking at what looks like an Imperial Star Destroyer from the Star Wars universe on their screen.

Doctor McCoy says, “You have got to be kidding me.”

Spock responds, “I believe not, doctor. The computer and viewscreen do not ‘kid around’ since they don’t have any self-awareness…”

McCoy shouts out, annoyed, “That was a rhetorical question, Spock!”

[Serena] says, “This is just getting too weird.”

[Suguha] says, “No joke, sis. A starship from twenty-first century Earth science fiction? That shouldn’t be possible!”

Spock says, “Impossible, no. Due to the fact that we have found out that indeed there is more to existence than just the universe…in fact, a ‘multiverse’, it is logical to assume that there is a possibility of such a thing to be happen. Highly unlike, yes, but not impossible. With the infinite possibilities…”

Captain Kirk says, interrupting, “I believe we have the point, Spock. Since there are so many universes out there, there is a possibility that what’s fiction to us is real in another universe.”

Spock says, with a nod, “Precisely, Captain. However, just because that it is ‘fiction’ from the universe that we came from, we cannot believe that we know anything about it since when it was written, it was formed from ideas from a creator’s mind and doesn’t mean that it matches the ‘reality’ from the universe from it came.”

Washu says, with a grin, “You got that right. Couldn’t have said it better myself.”

Just then an alert noise is coming from Spock’s console and Spock says, “Captain, massive space-time ‘anomaly’ detected.” Captain Kirk looks at Spock and then looks at the viewscreen displaying what looks like a vortex forming in front of the Imperial Star Destroyer, which goes inside, and when the Star Destroyer is through the ‘vortex’, it closes behind the Star Destroyer.

McCoy asks, “What the heck was that?”

Washu says, “A dimensional gateway if I ever saw one.”

Spock says, “Miss Washu is most likely correct. From the sensor reading from our enhanced sensor array, it looks like to be a stable space-time gateway.”

[Serena] says, “I don’t think that Star Destroyer normally have those things even in the Star Wars universe.”

Captain Kirk says, “Neither do I.”

Washu says, “Can I have that data, Mister Spock? I might be able to figure out where they went.” Spock looks at Captain Kirk and he nods his head in which Spock prepares to gather all the data for Washu.

[Suguha] asks, “Who the heck were they?”

[Serena] says, shaking her head, “I don’t know, but I have a bad feeling about this.”

Captain Kirk says, “Same here. We need to get in contact with your ‘counterparts’ and find out what’s happening.” [Serena] and [Suguha] nod their heads in agreement in which they are hoping that their ‘bad feeling’ is just a bad feeling, but they can tell and realize that most likely, it is a promotion of things to come…

End of Chapter 6

Our heroes and heroines look like they are going to be getting their first Energist fragment, but they have a long way to go. However, not only did we learn some of the ‘backstory’ of this timeline, we also learn a bit more about what happened with the battle with Ragnarök and our heroes and heroines with the events of Suguha’s/Sailor Celestial’s ‘demise’ as well as the first meeting of our heroes and heroines with her four ‘doppelgangers’. Now, you may be saying that Serena/Sailor Moon is WAY out of character, and you have a point, folks. Remember, she still bares the ‘scars’ from SAO and now, she has the deal with the whole event that happened with Suguha/Sailor Celestial in this ‘timeline’, so, it shouldn’t be surprising that she AND Kazuto are dealing with ‘issues’ which will be a MAJOR plotline in this arc of the story. Now, please read and review and NO FLAMES, please! Later and best wishes, Crossover Fans!
