The Forgotten Princess
Chapter Five: Surprising
Revelations
General Amethyst reappeared in a large black
and navy blue room lined with different dark colored crystals. She tucked a
stray piece of purple hair behind her ear before heading off towards a door on
the right side of the room.
As she entered the next room, she heard a voice ring out from the
darkness, "Well, Madame Scientist, could you please explain what happened
today? It seems that your 'all powerful monsters' are being defeated by that
pathetic Sailor Earth and the rest of those children." The female
general's violet eyes widened at the familiar sound of an evil laugh.
"I'd like to see you try, Morganite! And if I remember
correctly, you were defeated by Sailor Earth in the future, weren't you?"
Amethyst shrieked as a womanly figure emerged from the shadows.
"Yes, but Neo-Sailor Earth is much stronger than this Sailor
Earth if I'm not mistaken, right?" the pink-clad general calmly answered
the insult. She was a tall woman with shoulder-length pink hair that was up in
beaded dreadlocks and pink eyes. As Amethyst glared at her, Morganite brushed a
beaded braid away from the upside-down black moon on her forehead.
"You two are like cats. You never stop bickering with each
other," a handsome light green haired man commented as he and a
blue-haired guy joined the two generals.
"Oh, like you and Tanzanite don't, Peridot?" Amethyst
shot at the male general who merely flashed a pearly smile in her direction.
"That is enough, all of you!" a shrill female voice
echoed throughout the room as a cold chill set in the air. The four generals
kneeled before a black throne with their eyes facing the stone floor. Suddenly,
a nearby candle was lit with a dark blue flame and illuminated the figure who
had just spoken.
It was a tall, elegant-looking women who sat comfortably on the
barely visible ebony throne. She had deep black hair that was pulled into two
buns on the sides of her head (think Princess Leia) with a few wisps lining her
face. Her face was a pale ghostly white that contrasted greatly with her dark
hair, her eyes, which were so black that you couldn't even see her pupils, and
the black upside-down moon on her forehead. The figure rose from the throne and
her outfit soon came into view. She wore an ankle-length black sleeveless dress
with a thigh-high slit near her right leg. Below the hem of the dress, one
could see a pair of glittering black crystalline heels.
She looked in disappointment at the generals before her and
replied, "Well, it's no wonder those pesky little brats are beating us.
Maybe we would be having some better success if you four would stop acting like
such babies!"
"Yes, Princess Jet," the quartet of nega-generals
answered in unison as they avoided looking into their ruler's lifeless eyes.
"Very well, Morganite, Peridot, and Tanzanite, I would like
you to please leave so that I may have a private conversation with
Amethyst," Princess Jet's voice cracked with authority as the three
generals nodded in agreement. Morganite flashed a smirk in Amethyst's direction
before disappearing into a burst of pink flames. Tanzanite was surrounded by
crackling light blue lightning bolts before transporting him away and he was
followed by Peridot who was gone with a bright flash of bright green light.
As soon as the three generals were gone, Princess Jet quickly rose
from her throne and walked towards Amethyst. A blur of black energy surrounded
the princess's gown and transformed into a black formfitting pants suit. Her
elegant hairdo replaced by a simple tight bun.
"Well, Amethyst, is everything going according to plan with
the company?" the ebony-haired ruler asked with a gentler tone.
"Everything is going smoothly, my Princess. You are scheduled
to meet with the building owners in a couple of minutes."
"Very good, Amethyst," Princess Jet suddenly stumbled
and put a hand to her forehead.
Amethyst was at her side in mere seconds, "Are you all right,
Princess?"
"Fine, just a little bit of stress from all the planning. Oh,
"Don't worry, Jetie. We won't fail. In fact we'll succeed in
taking over Crystal Tokyo and avenge Diamond, Sapphire, Emerald, and
Rubeus's deaths by killing those stupid Sailor Scouts!" Amethyst replied
confidently
"Diamond...Oh,
"I know, Jetie, I know. I sometimes find myself crying over
Rubeus even after all these years. But, think of how good it will feel to kill
their murderers. And you would never let me down. You are still the wonderful
big sister you've always been." Amethyst comforted Jet in the privacy of
the throne room.
Three weeks had past since the return of Rini and the introduction
of General Amethyst. There had been a few monster fights, but nothing
exceptionally hard that the scouts couldn't handle. Sailor Earth hadn't even
shown up for a few which helped boost the others confidence that they could
beat the monsters without her help.
Rini had been secretly meeting Addy and Apolla at her apartment
during the past couple of weeks and had been helping her come up with a way to
explain herself to the scouts. But, unfortunately, things didn't go the way
they wanted them too.
"So, Addy, are you going to that new dance club "Silver
Mirage" near the college this weekend? They're having a huge grand opening
Saturday night," Serena asked her new friend while sitting at the coffee
shop with her.
"I hadn't planned on it, Rena. Why do you ask?"
"Well, a group of us are going and I wanted to invite you to
come along."
"No, I couldn't intrude on your fun," Addy sipped at her
chocolate milkshake while watching Serena inhale a burger and fries.
"Oh, you wouldn't be intruding at all. As a matter of fact,
the girls and I want to set you up with our friend, Jed. He's been a bit lonely
since he broke up with his last girlfriend about a month ago and I think he
desperately needs someone like you."
Addy's left eyebrow rose at that statement, "No way, Rena! I
am not about to be the subject of one of you and Mina's goofy matchmaking
schemes ever again!"
"How do you know about Mina's matchmaking? I don't think
we've ever mentioned them to you, have we?" Addy's face froze with panic
at the Serena's question and mentally kicked herself for blurting something out
like that.
"Oh, I think Cassie mentioned something about it," Addy
dismissed the question with a flip of the hand, "But, I guess it does
sound like fun so....count me in!"
Serena grabbed her into a big bear hug, "Great, Addy! I'll
call you tonight with the details, kay?" Then the blond meatball-head ran
off, giggling as she went to tell Mina the news.
Soon, it was Saturday night and
"Oh, they're here, Addy!" Apolla looked out the window
towards
"Do I look all right, Apolla?" Addy asked her guardian
cat as she tried to catch her breath.
"You look fine, Addy. Why are you so jumpy tonight? You've
been on dates before. I have proof of that."
Addy grabbed her purse and opened the front door before answering,
"Well, if you must know, Apolla. I plan to tell the crew about being
Sailor Earth tonight. Ciao, kitty cat!" Then Addy slammed the door close
and hurried towards the elevator.
The group in the car were waiting for about five minutes when the
lobby doors of the building opened and Addy came sauntering down the steps.
Now, they had known Addy was pretty attractive and all, but they
had absolutely no idea how hot she really was! Addy's black hair hung down to
her thighs in loose curls that bounced under her black leather beret. Her dark
green eyes were lined with dark eye shadow and her full lips were covered with
a slick gloss that gave her a slight pout look. The rest of her face was covered
with a light brush of shimmer.
But, the most astounding thing about Addy that night was her
outfit. She was wearing a pair of skintight black leather pants with
rhinestones along the sides, a black zip-up tank top, black finger less
elbow-length gloves, and black boots. Her slender legs were accentuated by the
tightness of the pants and caused all the men around the building to start
drooling.
"Hey, guys! How are you tonight?" Addy exclaimed as she
hopped into the car with the gaping quartet. Addy noticed their stares and
quickly check to make sure she wasn't falling out of her outfit before looking
strangely at them. Serena and Molly quickly gained composure and began
bombarding Addy with questions.
"Oh, my gosh! Addy, that outfit is absolutely gorgeous! Where
in the world did you get it?" Serena blurted out to her friend as they
drove towards the dance club.
"Thanks, Rena. Actually, I made this outfit myself. I
decided, thanks to Cassie's persistence, to wear one of the outfits I'm going
to submit to some fashion companies. That way I can know what people think of
my styles," Addy calmly explained to her two stunned friends.
"You designed and made that? That's absolutely amazing!"
Molly replied in excitement. The conversation continued like this for the rest
of the car ride.
When they arrived at the dance club it was pretty packed and a
long line of people stood in front of the ticket office.
"Hey, Addy, Serena, Molly, over here!" Mina's
high-pitched laugh rang out over the steady music from the speakers. There were
the girls and their boyfriends, everyone dressed in completely night life
clothing. After a bit of chitchat, Addy started to notice Mina and Serena
staring at her with a glint in their eyes.
"Oh, Addy!" the two blondes cooed in unison, "We
have someone here we want you to meet!" Addy sighed inwardly, but from
experience in the Silver Millennium she knew there was no stopping Serena and
Mina. So, she walked over towards them awaiting her 'supposed' date.
Addy stopped dead in her tracks at who was standing next to
Serena. It was a handsome college boy with golden blonde hair, smooth skin, and
large blue eyes. She knew who he was, yet couldn't believe he was actually
there in front of her. Addy almost threw herself into his arms until she
remembered that he didn't know who she was.
"Well, Addy, I would like you to meet Jed. He's a good
friend, a good lonely friend," Mina slyly winked before continuing,
"Jed, this is Adele Duboise from
Jed caught a glance at Addy and his mouth almost dropped to the
floor. He had never seen someone so...perfect-looking in his entire life. She
was everything he ever wanted, looks wise at least, in a girlfriend. Her hair
was like ebony silk hanging down to her muscular thighs. Her face was of pure
elegance and sophistication. But, it was her eyes that caught most of his
attention. He didn't know why, but he was always attracted to green eyes. And
these were the greenest eyes he had ever seen. They shone like emeralds in the
multicolored spotlights of the dance club and displayed tons of emotions that
only he could read.
"Hello or as you say in Paris, Bonjour Mademoiselle. May I
have this dance, si vous plait?" Jed quickly put on the charm and was
rewarded with a brilliant pearly smile.
"Oui, you may Monsieur Jed. Merci beaucoup!" Addy
couldn't help, but smile especially at the memories of his past self doing
almost the exact same thing the day they first danced together. But, she shook
away the memory before it got to graphic. No use letting on now exactly who she
was.
The two young adults sauntered out onto the crowded dance floor
and began to dance to a fast-paced song. All the times they had danced in the
past had permanently put each other at ease. Their bodies intertwined together
in perfect synchronization as the music carried them. Serena and the rest of
the Silver Millennium survivors just watched them and couldn't shake the
feeling of deja vu of this scene before.
Pretty soon the song was over and Jed and Addy headed back to the
table. They sat next to each other and began to talk about everything in their
lives. Jed was amazed at how easily he talked with this strange girl while Addy
was amazed that they could still talk like this after so long.
Five hours had passed and the dance club was getting ready to play
it's final song of the night when a burst of smoke filled the room. Suddenly, a
ugly snake-looking woman monster appeared.
The scouts excluding Addy, who had disappeared, gasped in horror
as she threw out some sharps spikes that took stabbed some innocent dancers.
Then she started throwing acid-like poison at the rest of the room.
"Guys, go find a place to transform now!" Serena ordered
as everyone quickly scattered to find hiding places. Addy had already found a
hidden corner and transformed rapidly before heading back to the main room.
By the time, the scouts, guardians, and knight protectors had
arrived, Sailor Earth was dodging quite successfully the poison from the
monster. Then she raised her staff into the air and, surprising the scouts who
expected vines, stabbed the end into the ground. The floor started to shake and
a monstrous crevice headed for the snake-woman. Thankfully, by now, all the
bystanders had run off leaving the scouts against the reptile reject that was
so weak it was pretty damaged by Sailor Earth's attack. Sailor Moon hurriedly
turned the snake-thing into moon dust.
Suddenly, a burst of pink flames appeared near the ceiling to
reveal a pink-clad female general who replied, "Well, well. You girls are
a bit stronger than I thought. I'll see you next time!" Then as quickly as
she had arrived the general disappeared.
Sailor Earth, to everyone's surprise didn't run off this time, as
a matter of fact she headed towards them smiling. Then before anyone could do
anything, a long-haired blue general appeared behind Sailor Earth and
electrocuted the scout with volts of electricity while saying 'You'll have to
do better than that because Naga was the weakest we have.' and disappearing.
Sailor Earth's eyes grew large before darkening with pain. She
started to fall and was saved a few inches from the ground by none other than
Jadeite. Then her eyes closed in a state of unconsciousness and, unfortunately,
her disguise began to slip. To the surprise of the court, Sailor Earth was
surrounded by tons of purple and green ribbons for a minute before revealing
her identity with a flash of light. Jadeite gaped at the girl in his arms, her
long hair spilling onto the floor.
Sailor Moon and Sailor Athena whispered in unison,
"Addy?"
