As planned, all the girls were there waiting for the two to get off of the plane. They visited and hugged, then soon the two went off to see Will's new house. It was not far away from the girls - basically centrally located between them all. Mina had went with them, and they started to unpack everything.
Unknown to them though, they were being watched the whole time. Lord Mithrill had finished training the Seven, and sent them out on their first mission - to gather all new information on Will. They were doing a very good job.
"Yes... excellent." Lord Mithrill had been watching through the eyes of the Seven the whole time. He knew everything they knew, saw all they saw. He was very pleased. "My Seven, it is time to return home. Come, you have gathered all I need."
"Sir," the leader of the Seven spoke up. "I have not found the last peice for the Ultimate Being yet."
"Yes I know, but I, Lord Mithrill responded," Have found her. Now come, do not question me again."
Lord Mithrill closed all links he had with them. He started thinking. An evil smile ran across his lips. "Kei, come to me."
Shortly after he was commanded, Kei entered Lord Mithrill's throne room. He bowed. "You called, m'lord."
"Will has come to Japan. The final peices are falling itno place. Soon, the last peice for the Ultimate Being has been found."
"And what of the other sacrifice, m'lord?"
"She has come too. Haha, the fools do not know what they have in store."
Kei bowed again and left the room. Lord Mithrill sat there thinking, and once again his lips curled into an evil smile.
"Well, all is unpacked," Will said, looking around his new home. Mina came up beside him and grabbed his arm.
"I am so glad you are here now," She said, leaning her head on his shoulder.
"Me too," Will said. He smiled down at her. He was about to say something again, but his watch started beeping. It was louder than ever before. "Oh my. This one is big. Quinn!" Will grabbed his dagger from a table as he called out. "Let us go! I will need your help!" He turned to Mina and said," I will need the Senshi also."
"Right," Mina said, and nodded. She pulled out her communicator and notified the Senshi. She then transformed into Sailor Venus.
Quinn ran down the stairs. He pulled out his dagger, chanting to make it transform.
"Moon Dagger Transform!"
Will transformed in a flash of light. The light blinded Quinn and Mina. When they could see again, they noticed they were transported to the shopping center.
The creature was before them. He was unlike any of the others. He was the same size as Sun, and had on black clothing. Strapped to his back was a katana. The creature smiled as he saw them.
"I was waiting on you three." He flicked his hand up and it glew a shade of green for a short bit. Suddenly, the four other Senshi dropped from a black hole that had formed, all tied up.
"What?! How did you get them?!" Venus asked, starting to run foreward. Sun stopped her.
"Oh, they were easy to catch," he said, laughing.
"You said you were waiting for us three..." Sun asked.
"Yes, I have a duty that involves the three of you. I am here for her," He said, pointing toward Venus. "Hahaha!"
Sun growled, pulling out his sword. Quinn stood at ready, much like Venus. "No!" Sun said, putting his hand out to stop the two. "This fight is mine." Sun immediatly started running towards the monster. He pulled out his katana, and blocked the first attack that Sun made. Sun made another attack, but it was blocked also. Sun attacked many more times, all to fail.
"Imputent fool. You do not realise I am superior. Now give up the girl, and nothing will happen - well before they are supposed to."
"Never," Sun said. He took a few steps back and put away his sword. He then extended his hands towards the monster, and chanted," Et erna Tes la no kala!" His hands start to glow, and a big, red beam of flames shoot out of his hands and at the monster. The monster jumped out of the way, but it's foot was hit by the flames. He screamed out in pain.
Just after, another scream was heard. Sun looked over and saw Venus in the arms of Kei. He had hold of her, and Quinn was on the ground, clutching his arm.
"Not this time Sun," Kei said. "You will not win this time."
Sun yelled out," NO!" He started running at Kei, but the monster hit him with a kick to the side, sending him to the ground.
"Yes, my Sun, yes!" Kei laughed. He summoned a portal and pushed Venus in. "This girl is the last peice we need for the Ultimate Being! This time Sun, will be your last! Hahaha!" Kei jumped into the portal and it dissapeared. The monster was still there. Sun got up. His eyes started to glow. "Sun Fire Power!" Soon, his whole body started to glow. He rose into the air, and faced towards the monster. The monster yelped out and started to run from Sun. The glow around Sun turned into fire, and then blasted out at the monster, burning it dead.
As Sun fell to the ground, Quinn got up and ran over to him. The Senshi were all been released from their bonds, and they rushed over to Sun also.
"Is he going to be ok?!" Sailor Moon asked, bending down next to him
"Yes, he will. He needs rest, though. I will take him home. I will need all of you there too. Be there in about three hours, there is something important you all must know."
Quinn and Sun dissapear. The Senshi all scramble and transform back into their civilian selves.
"I really hoped to have everyone - Hermes and Mina - here when i revealed all of this, but that is not possible now," Quinn said. The four remaining Senshi, Luna, Artemis, and Will - who was lying on his bed - were gathered around Quinn in Will's room. The air was heavy, everyone was saddened at Mina being kidnapped. Will was looking at his dagger that he had in his lap. He seemed to be taking the loss of Mina the worst - which he was - but he was really thinking of a way to find Kei and get Mina and his little sister back. He nearly missed what Quinn said.
"I am sure you all know by now that I am from the futer. I have come back to teach the young Will here the way of what is called the Heavenly Bushido in this book - the Book of Sages." Quinn held up the Book of Sages. "If he follows these teachings... the future for you will be changed from what you think. Also, if he follows it, many tragedies could come to pass. That is the other reason I have stayed. Will knows that book from cover to cover now, and does not need me to teach him anymore. But, I have stayed to help out Will through them all."
"How.. How do you know all these things??" Serena asked. Luna gave a nod from her lap, she was wondering the same.
"Other than the fact that I come from the future, right? Well, I -- "
Will cut him off. "Something is happening!" He was looking down at his dagger. It was glowing yellow, and started to levitate above his lap. Quinn stood up. He knew what it meant.
"This is not good," Quinn said, grabbing for his own dagger. He held it up next to Will's and it started glowing also.
"What? What is wrong?!" Will asked, starting to stand also.
"It means they have found the last peice they need," a woman's voice said from out of nowhere. Adiren Tushima apeared in a flash of light. She had a very serious look on her face, which did not sit well with anyone. "Let us go now," she said, and in a flash of light they appeared in her cavern again. She led them to the room with the viewing pool, and it was already projecting an image. It was an image of Kei and seven men stalking after a young girl.
"Makee?!" Will asked, surprised to see her. "Where is this coming from??"
"Japan, near the tower," Adrien said, grabbing her staff. It was as tall as her shoulders and had a green ball floating on top of it. "We must hurry. Everyone transform, and I will telpeort you there." She then looked at Quinn and nodded.
He nodded back. "Yes, I know."
"Mercury Star Power!"
"Mars Star Power!"
"Jupiter Star Power!"
"Moon Crystal Power!"
"Moon Dagger Transform!"
As they transformed, their vision was blurred in a bright flash of white light. Shortly after, the light faded, and they found themselves ona roof top.
"Look!!" Someone said below, pointing up at them.
They stood there, the wind blew through their hair. All the girls stood next to Warior Sun, and Quinn, who stood side by side. Will's long brown hair blew in the wind, along with Quinn's short brown hair. Both of them held their swords int heir hands, looking down upon Kei and the Seven.
Kei looked up because of the commotion. He looked at where all the civilians were looking. He smirked and flicked his hand, summoning for one of the Seven to grab Makee. He grabbed her violently, and she screamed out in pain.
Sun leaned foreward, resting on his knee, looking down directly into Kei's eyes. His face was full ofhate and disgust. He wanted the two things that he loved the most back from Kei, and hurting Makee didn't help matters any.
Kei just looked back up and sneered, laughing under his breath.
All of a sudden, Kei lifted his hand quickly, pointing his palm out at the Senshi. A ball of light formed in seconds and flashed, blinding them. Then he sent out the Seven. They all swiftly bolted up the building as the Senshi were recovering. Immediatly they took down the Senshi. Warior Sun jumped down to the ground with one following him. Quinn was blocking attacks here and there. Adrien formed a sheild for herself, for she knew of the power of these Seven.
Kei laughed, and took Makee by her arm.
"Let go of me!!" Makee yelled out.
"I think not, little one. You are needed," Kei hissed at her. Her eyes widened and she froze. His smile scared her more than anything she has ever been scared of before. He started taking her towards the tower. She started to scream again, but Kei teleported both of them to the inside.
Sun was watching the whole thing out of the corner of his eye. But, he was unable to get past the member of the Seven that was fighting him. He looked around. Sailor Mars, Mercury and Jupiter were all backed into a corner, and three other memebers were closing slowly in on them. Sailor Moon was fending off one of her own, mostly running and screaming for her life. Adrien and Quinn had their own problems with two other memebrs. Things were lookign grey for them.
As if by wish, a bright, purple light shone, and Sailor Pluto appeared on a building opposite the one they all were once on. "No! Thise will cease NOW!" She held up her time key, and pointed it at the three members of the Seven that were about to attack Jupiter, Mars and Mercury. "Dead Scream!" Her garnet orb started to gather energy, and the three turned around quickly, hearing her words echo through the sky. Just as they did so, Pluto threw the ball of energy at the three, and it hit them, sending them flying off the roof, back towards the tower. In mid air, they dissapeared. The four remaining were distracted. Sun, Quinn and Adriend took the offencive and started getting quick hits in, keeping their men stunned. Pluto turned towards the one following Sailor Moon and he stopped. He bolted towards the tower, and dissapeared also.
Just as Sun was about to hit his opponent with a massive fist, the remaining three dissapeared.
Pluto jumped down, along with the others, next to Sun. Sun was looking at the tower. The orb at the end of his handle, on his sword, was glowing. Quinn put his hand on Sun's shoulder.
"You have learned all I can teach you, and have gone through all the perils that are neccisary to have strengthened you for this point. Now, it is time to face the enemy, and regain what is yours," Quinn said.
"Have caution, young one," Pluto said. "Quinn will assist you, but noone else. Do not take any rash actions, and follow whatever Quinn says. He knows best." She looked at Quinn a moment. He look was that of "that goes for you too". He nodded, remembering his dream he had. The two immediatly started towards the tower, which had now attracted very black, dark clouds above it, and was glowing with a grayish aura.
"Why can't we go with him??" Moon asked Pluto.
"Because, only they can save us from this threat that is before us. And only they can get into that tower now. It is too late," Sailor Pluto said, turning away from the Senshi. "A few minutes earlier and we could have gotten in."
"Wait! Where are you going Sailor Pluto??" Mercury asked.
"To watch over them," She said, looking back at them momentarily. "Both of them are wreckless and might do something that is unnecesary due to their emotions in this matter." With that, she turned away and dissapeared, back to her hiding place in the realm between her time post and the terran dimension.
"Come, let us watch as much as we can before they get too deep," Adrien said. In an instant they were transported into her lair, and all gathered around her viewing pool.
Quinn and Sun broke down the main doors by kicking them down. Inside was an eerie sight. Not the normal look of the tower. It seemed as if they were transported to another palce almost. The inside was still in the shape of a tall tower, but it was misty, musky, and dark. They immediatly started up the stairs. As they got higher, the tower and the steps got wider. Soon they reached a large window that alloed them to look outside.
They were indeed transported to another place. It was not on Earth anymore. They saw dark clouds above them, and a wide forest all around the town. But, the tower was not alone. It was connected to a gigantic castle. Int he distance, as the two looked, they could see huge dragons flying in the air.
"Where in the name of the Sages are we?" Quinn asked, amazed at the sight, his mouth wide open.
"I have no clue," Sun responded to the question, even though it was just a general question. They stood there a moment, looking out. Sun leaned out the window and looked up. They had a ways to go, for the castle was seven stories high, and they were only on the third. He could see bright flashes of lighting only coming from above the castle, and though he could hear a scream.
They started off again, taking no more time to stop. Nothing hindered them for the remaining four stories, and they reached the top quickly. Both Quinn and Sun took out their swords. Their swords had a faint glow of red around them.
Quinn kicked down the door that was at the top of the tower. They were level with the roof of the castle they were on, and before them they could see lightning flashing down into a quad int he center of the castle. Sun ran over to the edge and looked down. There were ten girls strapped high up int he air to crosses, their arms out, and they were firly supported so they would not go anywhere, and be in very little discomfort. Mina was one of the ten girls, and she - along with the other nine - were knocked out. Makee was in the center of the circle of girls. She was starpped to a metal table that was level with the waist of someone standing on the ground next to her.
Sun growled and was about to jump down when Quinn put his hand on his shoulder. "No, now is not the time. I know how you feel, but going down right now will not be good for any of the girls, nor that blue haired one."
Sun looked at Quinn for a moment. In his mind he thought of just tossing Quinn's advice away and jumping down anyway. But, when he looked back down, he decided to heed Quinn's warning. Just then, Kei, Lord Mithrill in king-like robes, a woman in a cloak, and the Seven walked out from a door. Kei, Mithrill and the woman stood in a circle around Makee, and the Seven stood in a circle around them.
"It is time," Mithrill said. The quad echoed his words and made it easy for Quinn and Sun to hear. "We have all of the peices, and the one destined to hold the power. Kei, let us start the transfer. Hope, get the sealing crystal ready."
"Sealing Crystal?... How did he obtain one of those?!" Quinn asked himself in surprise.
"What? What is that? What do you mean?" Sun asked, looking confused.
"That crystal was - or will be - used for sealing evil beings into humans. But, it is twenty years from even being invented." Quinn looked very distressed. He clutched his sword in his hands.
"I'm going down there!" Sun said.
"No! Not yet," Quinn said. "We must let the transfer begin. They are all at full power down there, and the transfer will drain the three around the young one on the table."
Kei, Mithrill and Hope all glew with a black aura around them, seeming to suck everything around it into the void it caused. The three closed their eyes, and Hope clutched the Sealing Crystal in her hand. It was the size of her palm, and fit in her hand perfectly.
"Now," Quinn growled, and both he and Sun quickly jumped over the retaining wall. All of the Seven immediatly looked up, and got ready for a fight.
Sun had extended his pals towards four of the Seven and started chanting that strange lanugage again. "Et erna Tes la no kala!" But this time he wasn't alone. Quinn was doing the same thing. Both their hands started to glow red. Then a big beam of flames shot out of their hands, and hit all members of the Seven. They were all set on fire, some dieing instantly, the others setting on fire, and being burned to death.
The comotion had caused the other three to look up, while still transferring the power of the girls into Makee. Now there was a blue glow around all the girls, and a trail of blue color from each one was flowing into Makee.
Sun and Quinn hit the ground, and stood up. Their swords were int heir hands, and they were standing in their fighting stances, side by side.
"What is this?" Lord Mithrill asked.
"We are here to take back the girls, and stop your evil plans," Quinn said.
"Well, well, well. If it isn't Quinn and his mentor," Kei said, laughing. "You boys really think you can stop us now?!"
Sun had said nothing. Instead he bolted foreward. Something ran by, faster than they could see, and knocked Sun into a wall. The thing ran around the three and stopped next to them, looking at Sun. It was a big monster, with two massive blades at the ends of its arms.
"Kssssss!" it hissed, "No, no, no!"
Quinn jumped foreward and kicked it, sending it flying over the three circled around Makee. It hit a wall, and stood up, shaking its head.
"Bad move!" It hissed again, and jumped at Quinn.
"Sun Flare Ignite!" Sun shot a blast from his sword at the monster. It flew into another wall. It stood up slower this time, and hissed. Quinn and Sun both bolted at it, and pushed their swords through it's stomach. It bent over and screamed out. THey pulled their swords out, and it fell to the ground and died.
"You fool!" Kei yelled. "That was my best! How do you keep killing them?!?!" He was extremly mad.
"It is done," Mithrill said. The glow around everyone stopped, except for Makee. She had a black glow around her. Her eyes were open, yet she was still and they glowed with a blue aura.
