Truly Happy By: Cheska-chan E-Mail address: Minnashime@aol.com Chapter 25 PG13 Disclaimer: I don't own Sailor Moon or Gundum Wing. Never have and never will...unless I become all powerful! ^^;; Too bad... I don't have the money to own SM or GW, if I did...I wouldn't be at school...*sigh* how sad...okay...there's the disclaimer. I do own Merodi, Kamikaze, Par, Seij, etc..the characters I've made up as my own...I don't own Serena though...she's Sailor Moon. I'm just using her as a character...^^ ************************* *You're wrong! Wrong!* she shouted inside her head. "You're wrong! Light will prevail! It will last forever! I will!"she argued, shaking her head but inside Merodi knew that he was right. "Indenial.."was all he said. As the walls broke down, they stood there in midair facing each other. Light blue sky with not a cloud in sight met them, basking them in the glow of the morning sun. Merodi saw all of this and something caught her attention. Once all of the walls and debris settled on the ground, there were five what seemed to be robots all around them. *What is all this? Robots?....except it looks to be more scientific and it should be some kind of machine....*Merodi thought. Just then...an eruption sounded out from down below not far away from where they were at. "What?!"she heard from somewhere below. Looking at the direction the eruption came from, she caught sight of smoke and walls breaking around there. **************************** Everywhere around them, the walls shook and broke apart and the ground erupted from beneath their feet. "Hayaku! Ikimasho!" urged Uranus as she started running. "Ikimasu! Ikimasu!" Mercury shouted back, helping Neptune carry the young boy as they ran. Hurrying across the place, all they could see were more collpasing walls and ceilings barely missing them as they collapsed down. Everything seemed a blur as they finally got out of their prison and out to the light of the sun. "Oh thank goodness....out of that place.."said a relieved Mercury. "It seemed like forever.."agreed Neptune. Laying down Drew, they all knelt beside him and looked around their surroundings. "...it's Merodi..."gasped Neptune. "She's still alive.."a relieved Uranus said. "There are machines around...and who's that facing her?"inquired Mercury. "..chotto matte...are those?...hai..they are...the other sailors are here near Merodi and those..machines,"added Uranus. "Where are Par and Kouhei?"asked Mercury, trying to look for them. "..I don't see them,"replied Neptune. For awhile they were silent... ***************************** *Mercury, Neptune, and Uranus! They're alive and well! They escaped...but...Drew...he's not moving from where I am. But I know he's alive! He has to be!* she said to herself. At that moment, Master raised his staff over him. "MAKURA!!"Master shouted, casting a dark void in front of him, it seemed to engulf everything around herself. "TERASU!"Merodi reacted fast as she said the spell, bright light illuminated around herself helping her to cast away some of the darkness that crept around her. "NOMIKOMU ANKOKU!" Master casted, the dark void around her pressed on as it tried to swallow her up on rich darkness. "SANKAN!" Merodi shouted and the sun shined down around her and destroyed the dark void and all there was around herself. *This is great...I need to end this quickly..I need to!* "...it seems that you have a few tricks up your sleeves...but I've noticed some of your friends down there as well...the sailor scouts,"Master said with a twisted smile. "Don't you dare touch them!"Merodi cried out bitterly. "Oh..I won't touch them..iie...but let's see how well they do at defense,"Master said and whirled his right hand toward the ground. "KAGEMUSHA! KOU SOTSU! HAKAISHA! SHOU!" Master shouted and at each word tall warriors sprouted from the ground. The first was a shadow warriow, tall and wearing all black with charred skin. Then there was an armored warrior wearing a dark blue armor with a blazing black sword. The last was nothing but a dark mist, hovering on the ground and stretching wide all around them like a dark cloud. At Master's last words they moved on, the dark mist went upward toward the Gundums and split into different ones, each facing a gundum. The shadow and armored warriors started charging at the three sailor scouts near them. "VENUS LOVE-ME CHAIN WHIP!" "BURNING MANDALA!!" "SPARKLING WIDE PRESSURE!!" The fight went on and each attack hit the two warriors head on but it didn't do much to truly hurt them and as the warriors attacked, the sailors skidded across the ground. As for the gundums, they attacked the mist that were in front of them but their swords and machine guns as well as their other weapons seemed to go through it and they started running out of ideas. "What are we going to do?"they each murmered to themselves but no answer came. *There has to be some way to help them!* Merodi thought, looking down at the losing sailors and gundums. Before she could get an answer she shook the thought off and turned to face Master. *There's no time! If I destroy Master, these spells will disappear along with him!* she decided. "KAKUHEKI!" Merodi casted, making a barrier wall for her own protection. "RYUUSEIU!" she added, casting a meteor shower over Master's head and it hit him making him stagger. "ANKOKU TOORIAME!" he shouted. Dark flickering clouds swirled over Merodi's head but she reacted quickly. "HAN'EI!"she shouted, raising her left hand toward Master. The clouds moved and went toward Master but he didn't say or do anything, the clouds flickered and dark, shooting rain fell down on him but no harm came. Spells and enchantments were casted upon one another for some time with the sound of other fights in the background, just below them. Neither halting nor exchanging words. ************************** From up above on the moon, Queen Serenity looked down. Staring down and watching the fight go on from a watery cauldron that consisted of mist and colorful water mixing and swirling all around inside. Queen Serenity saw all of them fighting but the one she looked at the most was Merodi and Master. *Queen Serenity. Is the fight going well?*asked Kamikaze as he flew over in back of her, talking through telekineses. "I am not sure, Kamikaze. It's difficult to tell..*sigh*..if I could.. I would go right now and try to end this myself..."she replied, shaking her head. *I would too...but we must wait* he said and trotted over near the cauldron and peeked in, flexing his wings. ******************************** Luna and Artemis layed hidden up from a tree nearby, watching the fight and considering whether to try something or just stay there. "What do you think Luna? Should we go and help?"asked Artemis. "..I don't think so...the sailors are holding their own,"she replied. "...barely,"Artemis muttered through gritted teeth. "I know...but until then...we should stay here...we could just endanger them more,"Luna explained. ******************************** Neptune, Uranus, and Mercury looked on and waited. "We should do something...but we can't leave Drew here...he might need us.."said Uranus. "We could split up...."suggested Neptune. "Who'll stay?"asked Uranus. "I will. I can treat Drew in case something does happen. The Sailors need you...Serena needs you,"Mercury said and bent down next to Drew. "Neptune?" "I'm going. We need more Sailors out there than just one,"she said, confirming it with a nod. "Okay...that it then,"announced Uranus. "Let's go,"Neptune stated and ran off toward the fight with Uranus. "Good-luck,"Mercury called after. ****************************** Bright flaring lights lit up the blue sky with gold, fire, thunder, black, silver, white, and purple. It looked like fire works in a way except it held coldness and warmth both. It didn't stop or falter, the lights seemed to stay that way; giving way for only a mere second or two. Everywhere, pedestrians and children stopped to look. Wondering what those were and what the lights were doing near the hospital. Of course, because of this the news crew and police started up and drove off toward it to check it out. *What is that? Could it be the Sailors?...I should get going...* thought Darien and ran off, transforming in an abandoned alley. All around, he could see newscasters and police cars darting through the street full of people but he paid no heed to them as he focused on his destination. ******************************** There's chapter 25! Almost there! I'll try to get more in next time. Translation: Hayaku: Hurry Ikimasho: Let's go Ikimasu: I go. I am goiing. I will go.
