******************************************************** Fulfillment of Destiny Chapter 6: Warrior of Bluestar By Sailor Bluestar aka Crystal-san "Hopefully for your sake that you don't fail me like the others." Master says disgustingly. "Don't worry, I will succeed. Just give me time to work out a plan." Soldier Bluestar says. "All right, but I warn you, if you help them, your punishment will be fatal." Master says. 'What is life without Crys-chan's love?' Soldier Bluestar thinks unhappily. ***** Crystal finds herself looking at the moon more and more often. She wonders if he still thinks of her. If he still cares. Does he still love her or was that just false? ' Soldier Mercury, Soldier Venus, Soldier Mars, Soldier Jupiter, Soldier Saturn, Soldier Uranus, Soldier Neptune, and Soldier Pluto. That is all for the system. Earth and Moon are looking over us. Who is next? Is it the boss or Joseph- san?' she wonders sadly. She silently hopes that it isn't Joseph she must face, but the boss. It is just too painful to deal with him yet. The wound in her heart is too deep, too fresh, to face him now. ***** Joseph looks into his mirror, sees Crystal looking at the moon. He thinks, 'So suteki. How can I capture such an tenshi (angel). She doesn't deserve this. She doesn't deserve me. She deserves someone better. Someone who wouldn't hurt her like I have so foolishly. How could I have hurt her so? Does she even care about me still? Oh how I miss our tender kisses and our times together when we were so happy together. Now things have fallen astray and I am forced to capture you for my Master. I feel as if my life is slipping from my grasp. How will I live with myself, knowing that I am the cause of your unhappiness? I might as well kill myself than hurt you. But I know that I will not die peacefully without telling you about my feelings and regrets and asking for you forgiveness. Even if I don't deserve it.' Joseph stares at Crystal, memorizing every detail, thinking that his Master will surely kill her for her powers. That is the only way to acquire her powers. To destroy the star seed that Crystal possess to gain the power. Much like what her evil father had intended to do if he couldn't turn her to their evil side. Thinking that this will be the last time for him to look upon her face he frame a picture of her looking in the moonlight, like the way she is now. Looking so serene, yet sad at the same time. ***** "What do you know about Sailor Universe from the legends?" Artemis asks Setsuna while they all walk down the empty street towards the mall. "Sailor Universe is the first senshi and was said to have a link to the universe. Somehow she broke the link and disappeared without a trace. She is the one who chooses the senshi for all the planets. Her consort is her protector and also chooses the senshi's protectors. The senshi are the guardians of the planets and the soldiers are the protectors of both. I think the reason she vanished is because her consort took a blast for her and died. She could barely function and disappeared. Or she broke the link and died. If she is real then we must find her. Her powers can help us defeat this new enemy." Setsuna explains. "Soldier Uranus did say something about knowing too much, do you think that this is the reason? They believe Sailor Universe exists and is alive, just hidden away? That Crystal-san can bring her to them?" Derrick ponders. "Maybe. If that is what they believe, then we better find her and protect her. She is after all the key to all this." Cleo says. "Maybe, maybe not." Joseph says. "My liege. What are you doing here?" Derrick asks. "Something you don't want to know." Joseph replies. "What?" Luna asks, suspiciously. "My Master has commanded me to destroy you and capture Crystal-san." Joseph says sadly. "You wouldn't dare." Cleo hisses. "I don't know what to do anymore." Joseph says with his head down. "Hey, why don't I help." Minako says. "Afterall, I am the senshi of love!" Everyone had huge sweatdrops on their heads. "What?" Minako asks. "Nothing." Usagi says. They turned around to find Joseph gone. They all look everywhere, but couldn't find him. Derrick took a guess and ran to the lake. There he saw Joseph looking out onto the serene lake. "Suteki isn't it?" Joseph asks. "Hai. So is she." "Indeed." "Why are doing this to yourself and her?" "Because I am at my Master's command. If he deems me to kill her I have to." "Was Moon and Earth with him before?" "Hai. They rebelled long ago. Now I am in too deep to get out." Joseph sighs. "How is she nowadays?" "Withdrawn, hurting, secretive. Why does your Master want her anyway? Why not the Imperium Silver Crystal?" "She has a lot more power within her than that rock." "Oh." Silence came between the two friends. "Are you going to do your job? Are you going to kill us and take her?" "I don't know. I've never been on my own like this. If I listen to my heart, it tells me to go and comfort Crys-chan. If I listen to my mind, it tells me to go and do the job before my Master kills me." "A man of two worlds you are." "Hai. Indeed." ***** "Where have those two gone. I can't believe this. First Joseph- san, now Derrick-san." Rei huffes. "Hey you guys, what are you looking for?" Crystal asks. "Derrick-san and Joseph-san." Haruka replies. Crystal winced at the sound of his name. She doesn't want to be reminded of the incident which broke her heart. She hopes no one notice. No one did, except for Hotaru, Michiru and Setsuna. Everyone else was busy looking for the two men. The three outer senshi approaches Crystal. "Crystal-san, do you want to go for a walk by the lake?" Setsuna says with a plan in mind. "Sure." "Lets go then before the others notice we're gone too." Hotaru says smiling. "Lets." Michiru grins. The foursome walked to the lake and around it. Silence is the only thing they could hear besides the birds and bugs. They could hear distant voices, voices which were very familiar. ***** "Goody, now Michiru-chan, Hotaru-chan, Setsuna-san, and Crystal-san have disappeared." Haruka growls. "When I get my hands on them, I will personally strangle the very essence out of them for doing this." "Haruka-san, I think they have a suitable reason for this. I am sure." Chester says. "What to bet your life on that claim?" Haruka snarls. "Uhh. Not really." *Humph* "Then shut up." Haruka smirks. ***** "I think it is high time you met my Master Derrick-san." Joseph says, teleporting Derrick to a cell in the headquarters of his fellow villains. (Oh No! Has Joseph-san turn traitor?) "That wasn't very nice of you. VENUS CRYSTAL POWER..." "MERCURY CRYSTAL POWER..." "MARS CRYSTAL POWER..." "URANUS CRYSTAL POWER..." "JUPITER CRYSTAL POWER..." "MOON ETERNAL..." "...MAKE-UP!" Mamoru transforms into Tuxedo Kamen. Joseph sneers, "I am the Warrior of Bluestar, I believe you can go to him as well. TELEPORT." ***** Crystal couldn't believe her eyes as she rounds the corner to find Joseph teleporting Derrick, Eternal Sailor Moon, Tuxedo Kamen, Eternal Sailor Venus, Eternal Sailor Mercury, Eternal Sailor Mars, Eternal Sailor Jupiter, and Eternal Sailor Uranus. She got very angry. "BLUESTAR ETERNAL CRYSTAL POWER..." "NEPTUNE CRYSTAL POWER..." "SATURN CRYSTAL POWER..." "PLUTO CRYSTAL POWER..." "...MAKE-UP!" "Joseph how could you do this to me?" Super Eternal Sailor Bluestar asks. "First of all, you made me fall for you, then you shattered my heart by saying that it is better to be apart, now you kidnap my friends to your Master's lair. Why are you hurting me like this?" "They are going to see my Master." Joseph says. "It isn't my fault that you loved me. Besides, I am on the winning side, nothing can defeat my Master. You should join me." Joseph internally winced in pain as Master controlled his body's moves, speech, powers. He wish he didn't have to do this, but Master had placed a controlling device within him and is controlling him without his permission. Joseph want nothing but to hold Crystal in his arms and say he is sorry for the pain he caused her. "Well bring them back." Eternal Sailor Pluto orders. "Iie, I do believe that you ladies have an appointment with my Master. TELEPORT." "Not today pretty boy. SUBMARINE REFLECTION." The powers of Neptune could not withstand against Joseph's teleportation spell. It still came right for them. "DEATH RIBBON REVOLUTION." Still nothing happens to the beam. The teleportation spell is backed up by Bluestar's strength. Even if it is such a simple spell, it had the might and power of the planet-star coursing through the magic. "CHRONOS TYPHOON." Still nothing happens. Not even time had any effect on the spell. It may be simple, but it is powerful. "I've had it. BLUESTAR DISENCHANTMENT." That did it, the beam disperse before it reached the remaining senshi. Super Eternal Bluestar placed a disenchantment spell on the teleportation beam and having it backed up with her powers and strength that is hidden within her body and mind, it is dispersed so greatly that it couldn't even teleport a particle if it wanted to. "I will be back for the rest of you. Rest assure." Joseph snarls before teleporting away. Then in teleports Soldier Moon and Sailor Earth. "I presume that you are Soldier Moon and Sailor Earth." Eternal Sailor Saturn says. "Correct. Me and my love will help you regain your lost friends. Shall we?" Soldier Moon says. "Me and my love? Bad grammar love." Sailor Earth reprimands. "Gomen nasai." Soldier Moon says sarcastically. "Shawn-chan." Sailor Earth says sternly. "Okay, okay. It is my love and I. Happy?" Soldier Moon asks. "Quite." "We shall if you two would listen. But we must go to my apartment, if we show up anywhere without the others, there will be suspicions. We must acquire them before anyone notices they are gone. Everyone believes that they are at the mall." Super Eternal Bluestar informs the soldier and senshi. "That's fine. We'll phone them up and ask the parents about a sleepover at a certain friend's place. That should give us enough time to rescue them. But we will need the aid of the Sailor Starlights and the senshi and soldier of the sun. Got a communicator handy?" Sailor Earth asks. ***** "You have failed to bring me Super Eternal Bluestar." Master says glaring at Soldier Bluestar. "I had high hopes for you." "But Master, listen to me. I have successfully captured the other senshi and they will come for them. They can only operate as a team. They will surely come for them." Soldier Bluestar says. "All right. Your saved this time because of your partial success, unlike the others. You plan on capturing her when she comes for her friends right?" "Hai." "Excellent." To Be Continued...
