--Alan -- "The Return of Michiru and Zoisite" ################################################ MST: Continuations of the Shijintenchisho CHAOS! Ch. 5 Nega-Hell 14.1 Original by Akira Sazanami Treatment by Alan ################################################ "Michiru Kai'oh," Beryl said as she maliciously rubbed her hands together, "today you die!" As the queen paced about the back room, a clock on the wall ticked. It was the clock that marked the hours of Michiru's rental. "Villains Unlimited," she said, addressing no-one in particular, "today I shall learn about your return policy! Ha ha ha ha ha ha!!" Her laugh continued for quite some time. The clock kept ticking. *** "Uh-oh," Michiru said. She sat up, and glanced at each of the generals. A worried look was on her face. The generals, who had been watching "Ishtar" alongside her, did not rise out of their seats. Instead, each did nothing more than raise an eyebrow at the visitor. "I take it you're wondering why I said 'uh-oh,' right?" Michiru asked. Their curious behavior puzzled her. "Good deduction," Malachite replied, "Yes." The woman cleared her throat, and told them, "I had an ominous premonition. It's like I'm being recalled by my creator." The generals just stared at her for five, maybe six seconds. "Of course, I don't have a _creator_, being human, not a video girl," Michiru continued. The generals sweatdropped. "I should've known," Zoisite said. At that, Michiru smiled. She asked them, "I bet you're wondering what the point of all this is, right?" "Yes!" they shouted. She nodded calmly. "Bad things might happen," Michiru said, "Be on your guard." Once again, the generals sweatdropped. "How inconclusive!" Nephlite exclaimed. "Ah... that is the point," the woman replied. Instantly, Nephlite collapsed. The others took a second to stare at his prone form. "Thank you so much for that," Malachite said. Seeing how they were close to dying from the painfulness of the situation, Michiru said, "No problem," and nothing more. *** "I'm here, I'm here. Love me!" Beryl exclaimed. She was, needless to say, sounding grossly out of character. Malachite looked up--for he was kneeling before the throne--and told her, "That's certainly unexpected." Beryl just smiled. That was a bad sign. She said to the five, "Ah... I'm in a good mood today. According to the agreement with Villains Unlimited, Michiru-san is due back at the organization today." She leered at Michiru, but the woman wasn't looking at her. "That's nice," Michiru said after a pause, "However... you forgot one thing." She stood up, clenched her jaw, and pointed at the queen. Assuming this would break out into an action scene, the generals all took to their feet. They watched the women square off. As she made her threatening stance, Michiru concluded her statement: "New policy. You get twelve hours more." Immediately, Beryl fell backward. After she hit the ground, she held up a small white flag. "Very nice!" Zoisite said, applauding. Zoisite's voice and mannerisms were still effeminate, as one would expect from a person who lived for several years as a woman. Solemnly, Michiru nodded. "I'll take care of Her Evilness," she told them, "Don't worry about me. You just do your job." As they walked away, Jadeite muttered, "I wish we didn't have to..." -- The *original* door sequence: #6: A shower of ice crystals. #5: An elevator door, opening to nothing but blackness. #4: A prison gate, barred by thick chains. Falls apart. #3: A waterfall. The camera pans outwards. #2: A television screen, which sizzles and explodes. #1: A highway leading down to HELL! -- [The four enter the small theater. The seating order is marginally different. From left to right: Jadeite, Malachite, Nephlite, and Zoisite.] MALACHITE: My love... you moved. ZOISITE: So it seems.

Just kinda weird to find a girl who can take care >of herself." JADEITE: Unlike all the other weak women running around here. > >"What's that 'sposed to mean?!" ZOISITE: [Akira] You big bully! > Akira popped up in his face >intimidatingly. "Girls can take care of themselves MUCH >better than guys!" NEPHLITE: Girls grow up faster than boys. JADEITE: [singing] Won't you take a look at me... I'm everything a girl should be... > Akira scowled, remembering the way he >had treated her before. "They're more mature for that >matter! I know a couple of 8 year old girls who're more better MALACHITE: --at grammar! >than you! Or ever will be! GUYS! Hmph!" > >"Che! JADEITE: Starring Jack Palance. ZOISITE: Actually, that's a mild vulgarity. > I hate women!! Girls are included! Shit, especially >ones like you!" MALACHITE: [Yahiko] Adjutant master! > >"MEN.." She turned away from Genrou, crossing her arms angrily. > >"GIRLS.." He turned away from Akira, cursing silently. ZOISITE: Admit it... they're meant for each other. NEPHLITE: Better than Gensuke and Amelia. > >Akira giggled, and Genrou laughed. JADEITE: It's funny. Admit it. MALACHITE: Suddenly a love comedy! > "Che, c'mon, let's go." >Genrou said, pointing the way to Yamiko. NEPHLITE: Speaking of her... Where has she been lately? ZOISITE: I wish I knew... JADEITE: Well, we know. And it isn't good. > > *** > >"Akira.." Genrou straggled behind. JADEITE: He's a scrapper, too. > Shit, I forgot about >my freakin' leg. ZOISITE: Shouldn't you carry it? > He ran up to her, wincing with every step. > >Akira stopped abruptly. Unfortunately, Genrou didn't see that. >They fell to the ground in a tangled heap. MALACHITE: No more "plob." ZOISITE: Too bad... > Genrou's burnt >leg hit a rock. "Shimatta!" Akira's wounded arm hit Genrou's >bone. "Ow! Hey.." Akira took out a hankerchief and wet it. JADEITE: Yucky. > >"Your leg... why didn't YOU TELL ME?! BAKA!" NEPHLITE: Issues, anyone? > >She tried to ignore the pain surging in her arm ZOISITE: Surge! The soft drink sweeping the east coast-- MALACHITE: No product plugs. >and continued to gently pat his now exposed leg. > >Genrou's leg felt pain JADEITE: Feel the burn! > every time the hankerchief patted >his skin. He bit his lip from crying out. It hurts so much! NEPHLITE: Yeah. Like all men, he can take several direct hits, but can't stand it when a woman cares for him. ZOISITE: No comment. >He was fighting to keep his tears in and thanked Suzaku ALL: Praise the Almighty Chicken of Doom! >that Akira didn't notice. Watching her pat his hurting leg, >made him think about how he would feel if she would always >take care of him.. like a real mother. Mother... JADEITE: [evil] Hello, mother. MALACHITE: Tasuki's one mean mother-- ZOISITE: Shut your mouth! >Genrou shook his head out of it. What am I thinking?! She's >just a kid! She wasn't so bad.. when she wasn't in a bad mood. ZOISITE: [Tasuki] But why does she always cook when she's angry? > >Akira patted his leg as gently as she could. He was trying >to be so tough... all the time. JADEITE: Anytime, pal! > Always having his guard up. She >could almost laugh at their similar qualities. I hope he's ok... >the big softie.. MALACHITE: She just wants the SD Tasuki doll. JADEITE: I want an SSJ Akira doll. > Moving the hankerchief to her wounded arm, >she winced a bit and continued cleaning his wound. She sighed. >At home... she always had to be taken care of. NEPHLITE: Really? When? MALACHITE: The weakest Super-Saiyajin in town. >She was the weak one. But now.. now she was the most powerful one. ZOISITE: [Vader] Now I am the master. >The guardian. > >She smiled. Finally.. someone to take care of... NEPHLITE: Someone to kick around. >but at home.. home.. She shook her head. She'd get back home... >no need for silly tears. JADEITE: Or silly love songs! > "So, umm.. how come you're always >trying to be so tough?" > >His face changed into a ZOISITE: --chicken! > scowl. "I DO NOT try. I AM. NEPHLITE: [Tasuki] I am Tasuki of Borg. Eliminate. Eliminate. >Baka scrapper..." > >"HEY! DON'T CALL ME THAT!" She scowled back. "Fire Hair... fine. >Fire hair. I get to call you that. MALACHITE: [Petalwing] Firehair highthing! ZOISITE: Shouldn't her hair turn *yellow*? >Scrapper's a good name." > >Genrou raised his eyebrows. "Oh? Tomboyish name actually." NEPHLITE: [Akira] Tasuki, you JERK!! > >"What's wrong with being a tomboy?!" JADEITE: Nothing. It just gets a little repetitive. > >"Nothin'." > >Akira did her usual 'hmph' and continued on. "You're an idiot. MALACHITE: [Ruri] Another fool... >This could have gotten worse. Here." She dug into her >backpack. JADEITE: If you're still wondering what happened last chapter, Zoisite, we were able to speculate on what's in her backpack. ZOISITE: Did you find out? JADEITE: No. Care to guess? ZOISITE: Hmmm... Let's see... I'll guess... the last copy of the first "Eagle" graphic novel, a lifetime supply of Pocky, a defibrillator, a Bunsen burner, a blanket made from yak hair, the new Matthew Sweet CD, and a brand-new Mercedes. > >He scowled and looked skeptical. "I told you. I don't need your >help. See?" He stood up. On his injured leg. "See?" NEPHLITE: C'mon, Yamiko. Trip him. MALACHITE: Where *did* she go? > >Akira looked up. She gave him another skeptical look. > >"Watch!" ZOISITE: [Tasuki] My new revised karate motion technique! Excellent, eh? > Genrou walked, with his injured leg wobbling on every >step, up the little hill and towards a cliff end. MALACHITE: Plot device spotted. >(Think, "Pride Rock") He grinned and kept his little signs of >pain to himself. NEPHLITE: [Akira] Here's your sign! JADEITE: [Tasuki] Thanks. Ouch. > "Yatta!" He flashed a 'V' sign at her. MALACHITE: [Yurika] V! >"Told you so! No one tells me what to do!" He jumped up and down >for emphasis... NEPHLITE: How stupid can you get? ZOISITE: He's a bandit. They're just naturally stupid. > being careful not to land on his burnt leg. > >"MORON!" Akira sighed... and Genrou accidently jumped too hard >on the cliff's end. It came crumbling down. With gravity >pulling Genrou down. JADEITE: That tends to happen. MALACHITE: Too bad they were just above Jusenkyo... > *** > >Akira dropped her backpack MALACHITE: That thing's valuable! ZOISITE: Well, there goes the Sphere of Wonder. > and focused her thoughts on Genrou. >She ran towards him, with no hesitation at all. NEPHLITE: No more "Chariots of Fire." > >"GENROU!" Hot on his heels, she pushed her legs harder. DAMNIT! >If I let him die... NO! Not again! Never again! ZOISITE: You mean Akira's killed him before? JADEITE: I wouldn't be surprised. > >Genrou had felt the ground below him disappear. He was heading head >first towards the ground. He was shocked. MALACHITE: [Tasuki] Lum?! >Feeling himself in the wind, he didn't know what to do for once in his >life. Clothes rippling in the wind, he shook himself >out of it. ZOISITE: Oooohhh... MALACHITE: My love... you might not want to do that... > Oh SHIT! He dangled uselessly in the air, trying to >somehow get back up. Damnit!! I am.. NOT gonna DIE! NEPHLITE: [Tasuki] I must defeat Frieza!! >He tried to get back upright, seeing the ground coming closer. Then >something HARD knocked him on the head, JADEITE: Not that it could make him any stupider. MALACHITE: "Stupider"? > he felt >himself almost bounce and everything started getting blurry... MALACHITE: [Tasuki] Well, there goes my lunch... > >"GENROU!!" ZOISITE: Notice how similar that is to "Gensuke"? > >Akira blasted into the air, and flew towards his rescue. NEPHLITE: [Miaka] Superman! >The ground was getting closer to engulfing him... and then he >was grabbed by something that was so fast, it snapped his body MALACHITE: Shadow Snap! >as he was falling. > >"Stupid ass.." JADEITE: Thank you so much for that, Akira. NEPHLITE: She needs some new dialogue, and fast! > the voice swirled into his mind. Then he felt he >was soaring into the air, and then he felt he had crashed >into something... but he wasn't hurt at all. As if something was >shielding him... MALACHITE: Come on! They're just doing everything Miaka and Tamahome did. > and then he felt the sensation of falling >again... JADEITE: 'Cause she sent him to Chinese HFIL. > *** > >"Ugggh..." Genrou put his hand to his head as he came to. He >realized it was cold. ZOISITE: [Tasuki] The world is a very cold place... > Opening his eyes, he saw that it was >late afternoon, with the wind howling. His mind was spinning >and he felt sick again. JADEITE: One more vomit scene and I'm leaving. MALACHITE: I'd join you if I could. > >"Shh. Shut up and go to sleep." > >"Huh?" Genrou tilted his head to the voice as best he could. Akira >was sitting, hugging her legs to her. NEPHLITE: That way, he can't peek up the skirt. MALACHITE: But Tasuki abhors all women! > Then he looked >at himself, covered with blankets. ZOISITE: [shrill] Oh, look at yourself! JADEITE: [same] See your dirty face! Come, wash your face! > >"Che, I can't believe how long you can sleep!" She sighed, knocking >his head with her knuckles gently. MALACHITE: Ouch. > "You are really >getting bothersome." She laughed gently. "Stupid ass..." JADEITE: Hey, stop making fun of my donkey! > >He growled, sitting up quickly and pushing the blanket off him, ZOISITE: I will stop myself... I will stop myself... >despite his dizziness. "It wasn't my fault! I didn't want to >fall off any cliffs..." Then it hit him. Stupid ass... "Hey... it was you?" MALACHITE: Ummm... duh? NEPHLITE: Who else flies around here? MALACHITE: Either that, or he's accusing her of pushing him off. I'd believe that. > >"Huh?" She lifted an eyebrow and extended her legs. "What are you >mumblin' 'bout?" > >"It was you. You saved me.... again." JADEITE: Thanks to the magic of SHOUJO! > He growled inside. "DAMN YOU! >Stop saving me! You could have been killed!!" NEPHLITE: Just curious... what "dimension" would Akira go to? >Then he grabbed his swirling head. He lied back down. "Kuso.." > >"Yeah yeah. Che... I don't need anyone to tell me what to do..." ZOISITE: [Akira] I need someone to tell *you* what to do! >She looked off into the distance, putting her arms >behind her. "You ok?" MALACHITE: Yeah. I'm fine. ZOISITE: Good. Are you OK? MALACHITE: Yup. I'm OK. ZOISITE: Are you feeling well? MALACHITE: I'm feeling well, too. > >Genrou felt a pang of guilt as she said it so calmly. As if it were >daily and normal life. "How are you so damn CALM?!" NEPHLITE: She does this every day. What did you expect? > >"I'm used to it. I can do lots of things you can't." ZOISITE: [Akira] I'm better than you! JADEITE: [Tasuki] Mommy... >Akira merely replied. "Urusai MALACHITE: Yatsura? > and go to sleep." > >He checked for any injuries. "Hey... how come you can fly? Kouji said that--" NEPHLITE: [Akira] Anything Kouji says is irrelevant! No, I am not from the Moon Kingdom. No, I have not associated with Communist spies. No, I do not take orders from Lady Une. No, I am not a person in black. Any associations I might allegedly have with any conspiracies are entirely fictitious! BELIEVE ME, IT'S ALL TRUE!! > >"Said what?!" ZOISITE: What say you? MALACHITE: What ho! > She snapped. Her eyes snapped to his and had a fiery glare. >She was not to be toyed with. JADEITE: That's our Akira Yuzuriha. > Then the >flare immediately died. She slumped down, leaning against a rock. > >"Uh... damn! What's your problem, woman?!" NEPHLITE: [Wufei] Woman!! ZOISITE: Damn issues. Damn them all. >Genrou shook off waves of dizziness and sat up. "C'mon. Let's go to >Yamiko now." NEPHLITE: *Finally*! > >He stood shakily. Ignoring Akira, he picked up the blankets. "Are you >coming or not? That Yamiko girl's waiting." MALACHITE: So is Godot. > >"Yamiko's... not here anymore." Akira said, with no obvious emotion in >her voice. NEPHLITE: Grrrrr... JADEITE: What? Did Akira's Super-Saiyajin levels go too high? Yamiko just doesn't disappear. > >"Na ni?" (What?) > >"Yamiko isn't here!" MALACHITE: If this is all her plan to seduce Tasuki, I will not be happy. > Akira still sat in her place, looking down. >"Now sit down. You need to rest." > >"The hell?!" He leaned on his uninjured leg. > >"I don't know where she is." ZOISITE: She can only track Dragonballs, not people. MALACHITE: [Akira] She just wandered off. Really. Ignore my yellow hair. > Akira sighed. "There's no point in >doing anything else. I've searched everywhere. She's not >here." She casually looked off into the distance. JADEITE: Just like John Wayne. NEPHLITE: I am *not* amused. >"Now go rest. I'm not going to repeat myself." > >"This ALL happened while I was napping?! Come on! She could be anywhere!!" ZOISITE: Don't make her repeat herself! > >"Not JUST anywhere!! I've searched!! I have MY OWN way of searching for >people!" MALACHITE: [Akira] I did it... my way. NEPHLITE: She is *not* Sinatra. Or Mac Davis. > >"Your OWN way?! What the #@$! do you mean by that?!" Genrou dropped >the blankets. MALACHITE: Stop drooling, Zoisite. ZOISITE: Yes, dear. > >"I search for them with their ki." > >"KI?! What the #@*! is that?!" JADEITE: No more swearing jokes. MALACHITE: Ki... it's the anime writer's best plot device. > >Akira glared at him. "Shimatta, (damn)you don't know when to quit!! >Ki are people's emotions, feelings, energy, soul. ZOISITE: A package deal. >It's their basic energy source and people can draw energy from it. >Every person has a different ki. Yamiko's is special as >is everyone else's! I, with others, have an ability to 'scan' areas >for ki and I can use it. Only special people can use it, if >handled correctly!" JADEITE: [Akira] I'm special! I'm humble! I'm better than you!! You wanna be humble, you ask me "Brother, how can I be humble?" > >"SHIT woman!! MALACHITE: Untouchable Saiyajin Woman. NEPHLITE: This is getting silly. > I don't want a lecture!! We've got to find Yamiko!! >You have your way of searching! Who'd believe a BS >story like that?! Huh?!" JADEITE: Tasuki takes no sh**. ZOISITE: BS? As in "Bishoujo Senshi"? > >"I'll demonstrate them on you, if you'd like..." Akira growled. >Anger bubbled inside of her. She couldn't BELIEVE she was >hearing this!! NEPHLITE: I disbelieve the illusion. > "Remember the fight with Eiken? Bakayarou..." > >Genrou blinked. The blue light... the sphere, the fire around us... JADEITE: The police sirens... the flashlight... the iron bars... MALACHITE: The way the floor fell out whenever I pulled the clutch down. >a shield? Then he scowled. "FINE! FINE! I believe you >then! But we've STILL got to look for her, don't we?" ZOISITE: Let the search begin. A quest it is! > >"What part of "She isn't here" don't you get?! Che..." Akira ran her >fingers through her hair, trying to calm herself. MALACHITE: She has nice hair. NEPHLITE: I think she stole that move from Tom Cruise. >She stood up to face him. "WELL?!" > >Genrou smirked. "Feh, calm down. ZOISITE: He sounds just like Inu-Yasha. NEPHLITE: [Kagome] Sit!! > We've still got to pay you back >for savin' us an' all. Yamiko did save my life... I should >pay you two back." JADEITE: Check or money order. > >"...Yamiko?" > >"Hai." He smiled, and patted her shoulder. MALACHITE: He could burn his hands that way. > >She fell to one knee. ZOISITE: Worship Tasuki and Tasuki alone! > >"Huh?" Concerned, he poked her again. She promptly winced. Genrou >looked down, and saw that her left arm clutching >her right shoulder. It was bandaged heavily, the bandages showed >through her shirt. ALL: Pervert! > "Hey.." > >She scowled and looked at him with fiery eyes. "Don't!" MALACHITE: We're descending into TV series-style dialogue. NEPHLITE: [Miaka] Tamahome! Hotohori! Chichiri! Nuriko! Tasuki! Chiriko! Mitsukake! The old pervert I met last week! >She stood up, and backed away. > >"What happened to your shoulder?" JADEITE: What happened to your hair?! > >"Nothing happened!!" She scowled again and let go of her shoulder. > >"I ain't playin' around kid. ZOISITE: Never play an ace when a two will do. > Your arm's hurt, and now your shoulder. >You saved me--" Genrou started. His eyes widened in shock. Falling... >then in someone's arms... I didn't get hurt.... I... was... being >shielded.. by ... her? MALACHITE: No, it was Van Fanelia. Think about it! ZOISITE: [Hitomi] Van... you're an angel... > >"Na ni?" Akira calmed down and walked towards him. "Someting wrong?" JADEITE: [Tasuki] Sorry... I was lost in... er, thought... NEPHLITE: [Akira] Pervert. > >He stared at her, hard. "What I was falling.... we crashed into >something. What the hell happened?" ZOISITE: You crashed into Dave Matthews. I don't know, why not? > >"It's none of your business!" > >"The hell it is!!" He grabbed her good shoulder. JADEITE: Never grab random body parts. You'll get hurt. MALACHITE: Fioret had the same problem. > She glared at him. >"You crashed into something as you were flying!! You >got hit instead of me!!" He was furious with himself. "How could you >let this happen?!" NEPHLITE: Because she was feeling nice at the time. Or maybe suicidal. ZOISITE: Here we see Akira as Heero Yuy. > >"Why would you care?! It ain't your fault!!" MALACHITE: Ummm... terminal stupidity? > >"Shit, it IS! What the hell is with you?! Yamiko's GONE, you're >HURT!!" He shoved her back against a nearby tree. ZOISITE: That wasn't here before... NEPHLITE: Yeah. I thought they were in a room. ZOISITE: Maybe it's Tsubasa Kurenai. > >On impact, she winced and fell to her knees. Looking down at her, he >felt... Responsible's one way to put it... low. "Gomen >ne.." he said, softly. MALACHITE: [Akira] Apology accepted. Owie... JADEITE: I wonder what she'll do next. > Arrows of pain shot through his conscience >as he looked at her. > >She sat on her knees, holding her shoulder. Almost immediately, she flew >to her feet. NEPHLITE: Impressive. > "I'm fine!!" By doing that, she >accidently rammed against the tree because of her balance. JADEITE: That was smart. >"ITAI!" She held her shoulder, still wincing. It was pretty >pathetic, really. ALL: [Malachite] Pathetic! > >Genrou looked on, amused. "So you think you can take care of yourself >with that shoulder? Feh... don't try to #$(*!in' ZOISITE: I won't say anything. >try ta tell me that you won't take help from anyone?! Of course, >maybe Yamiko--" > >He stopped short as he saw a sparkle of water fall from Akira's face. MALACHITE: Nice timing, Tasuki. JADEITE: The bandit's getting lucky! > >"Yamiko.. Yamiko's gone...." Akira whispered. "I'm... alone.... and... >I... want to--" She shivered and sniffled. "Home... ZOISITE: What's waiting for her back at home? NEPHLITE: A couple dozen Fushigi tapes. ZOISITE: [Akira] I said I wanted to see the miko, not be the miko! Waa! >home..." > >Oh shit oh shit... JADEITE: Is he in a world of sh**? NEPHLITE: No, but Eiken is. He got fried. > she's gonna start bawling and crying... >"H-hey..." Genrou plomped his hand down on top of her petite >head. "Don't cry." MALACHITE: Don't quote Seal! > >"I'm NOT crying!!" ZOISITE: [bitter] I'm acting. > She yelled, still looking down. It was pathetic >really, for even more little teardrops slip JADEITE: Her... *ahem* slip is showing. >down her cheek, for Genrou to see. > > *** > >Akira's Living Room MALACHITE: Terminal Dogma. > >;_; Nekomi sighed, depressed. Fate wasn't fair. Why couldn't SHE be in >the FY world too? NEPHLITE: Just what we needed. ZOISITE: Who *doesn't* want to be in the Fushigi world? > NE?! Sighing again, this time >in frustration. "Mou... Akira-chan's so lucky. Now she has Genrou-sama MALACHITE: Nice use of honorifics. Very random. JADEITE: A translation would be nice... >to be with." Her whining went farther, but none >of it was really different. NEPHLITE: Could these characters be a little more annoying? > >"Demo..." JADEITE: Demolition? > Her whiny tone had changed now. "Yami-chan's gone now.." >Yamiko.... please be alright. That old hag had better >protect you. JADEITE: An old hag... Akira?! NEPHLITE: Nekomi's gonna get hurt if Akira hears that. > Fingers trailing the pages, she read on. "The Byakko >no Miko, Yamiko-sama, NEPHLITE: Well, that certainly provides an answer... sort of... ZOISITE: Lame! MALACHITE: Yamiko's the Byakkaro Princess. > had disappeared from Konan, >only to reappear in Sairo, to meet her seishi." MALACHITE: Not like she'll ever appear again. NEPHLITE: ... > >Taking a breath, Nekomi closed her eyes. Why couldn't she have been >the Suzaku no Miko? To be surrounded by Nuriko-sama... *-*;; ZOISITE: Nuriko-sama... OTHERS: ... >Nekomi caught herself blushing at this point. Mou, minna was so lucky. >She read on. "Now that three of the four mikos are found. Only the >Genbu no Miko remains."

Just-- Nekomi's thoughts >was cut short as JADEITE: --the grammar broke down. > green light suddenly shot out of the book, suddenly >washing over her like a gentle breeze of liquid. I >get to be a miko!! NEPHLITE: Just what we needed. How sad. JADEITE: She *wants* to be a miko? > Nekomi thought as she was brought into the >Shijintenshisho... > > > *** > > >Eiyou Palace JADEITE: The House of the Rising Sun. MALACHITE: "Eiyou"? What sort of name is that? > >Nuriko sat in the gardens of Eiyou palace, admiring the view. >"Saaa..." ^_^ ZOISITE: We've stumbled upon the Fic of Many Smileys. > It was Nuriko's favorite pasttime... the >beautiful flowers only enhanced the beauty of everything. The dew drops on >roses, the greenery full and lush, the air >blew a wisp of his violet strands of his hair across his eyes. MALACHITE: That usually just causes me to itch. >Birds of bright colors fluttered about him, one resting on his >finger tips. NEPHLITE: The happy little birdy left a happy little doo-doo. > >^_^ And he was watching Hotohori-sama!! *-* KAKKOI!!! (COOL!) ZOISITE: Hotohori-sama... OTHERS: Zoisite-san... > >Hotohori walked about the gardens with his advisors, talking about >"suitors" and "heirs". JADEITE: Well, if you actually listened to them... > Hotohori's face was a total >mask of beauty and grace, but if one looked closely, JADEITE: If you actually paid attention... >everytime the suject was brought about, his face would be turned >to the side, away from his advisors, shuddering and looking like the >very model of immaturity. MALACHITE: Yes, that's our Hotohori. NEPHLITE: Speak not, Zoisite. ZOISITE: ... > >Nuriko was blind to that. *-* Hotohori was going on a trip with him >to Mt. Leikaku, JADEITE: Vacation time! > with Miaka. Miaka... poor girl. >Tamahome had left her... and Nuriko couldn't help but let his thoughts >wonder, his thoughts lingering on the miko. NEPHLITE: [Nuriko] I wonder if she's still as stupid as ever? >He would've expected her to be a total wreck-- ZOISITE: The Wreck of the Miko. MALACHITE: [singing] As far as big anime go, it was bigger than most... > >"AAAAAAIIIIIIEEEE!" > > > *** JADEITE: Nice transition. > >"I thought I told you to quit yer fuckin' trap!! Can't you let ANYONE >get close to ya without ya OVERREACTIN'?!" NEPHLITE: Tasuki needs acting lessons. MALACHITE: [Tasuki] Someone get me new dialogue! > >"I thought I told you tough shit!" ZOISITE: [Akira] You man of rubbish! Disposal is destiny of yours! MALACHITE: [Akira] I wouldn't sh** you. You're my favorite turd. > Akira yelled, her fierceness even >more so. But the hot tears wouldn't stop, they >seemed to grow stronger and stronger, completely obliterating her... MALACHITE: She's finally been defeated. >futile... chances of stopping the dam. > >And so, they were stuck in a stalemate, JADEITE: What's the next move, Deep Blue? >one watching the other, one waiting for the other to move. > >It hurt. Damn, did it ever hurt. ALL: Ouch... > >Genrou looked, or gave her a 'look', as her tears overflowed. When you >see someone cry in front of you, if you really looked, such sadness were >always in those tears. Tears are usually generated by sadness. JADEITE: If you didn't know that already... >Not happiness, not anger, but sadness. And usually, when you really >analyze it, a tear is a crystal of water, of something that is produced >by the eye, to signify great emotion. And that emotion is usually sadness. MALACHITE: Yes. Of course. Can we move on?! >But of course, our Genrou isn't like that. ZOISITE: Our dear, dear Genrou. JADEITE: What, no "Tasuki-sama"? > Poor Akira. He knew he >couldn't win her over with words. He wasn't all that >good with that anyway. NEPHLITE: He has trouble articulating. MALACHITE: [Tasuki, dim] My brain hurts! > >Akira seemed to be crumbling before him, her face now having such a >pathetic look of anger behind it, but more of a child's anger, MALACHITE: A child's toy. Kodoma no Omocha. ZOISITE: I wanna see that. MALACHITE: If Animeigo gets the license, no-one will ever hear from it again... >a misplaced one. > >And so... in one fluid motion, he had Akira in his lap JADEITE: Oh, dear! >as he sat on a flat boulder, hugging her back to his chest. NEPHLITE: [Tasuki] I got your back. >"Bakayarou..." > >Akira's body couldn't even register a protest, ZOISITE: How about a marriage registry? >let alone shock, as she sat in his lap. Her cheeks seemed covered in >tears, JADEITE: Tears are marks of sadness. Did you know that tears usually indicate that someone is-- ZOISITE: That's my line, bakayarou. > and her hands worthlessly trying to wipe them away. So she >sat... crying her little heart out. MALACHITE: A "little" heart indeed. What, did you take measurements? > >"Saa..." He began to state. > >Akira whirled around to face Genrou, her face still marked with tears. ZOISITE: Don't you dare. JADEITE: ... >And her expression didn't seem none too happy. > >Ah... guess I made another mistake again. NEPHLITE: [Ivy] Oopsie! >DAMNIT Genrou, when the fuck are you gonna learn not to mess with women?! MALACHITE: Think, then act. Think, then act. >But he didn't say anything as he gave the puppy eyes to Akira. [Malachite gives puppy eyes to Zoisite.] ZOISITE: It doesn't help. >Akira had that face of hostility again. JADEITE: The closer her eyebrows are, the more violent the next scene will be. NEPHLITE: Just like Steven Segal! > Akira was still in his >lap, and he couldn't help but goofily grin. MALACHITE: [Tasuki] I have been drained of my characterization. ZOISITE: [Venus] Yeah, I agree! > >"Saa... daijobu?" He asked meekly. NEPHLITE: [Tasuki] Oro? ZOISITE: Actually, I should apologize for that last remark. Venus did quite a bit in "Promise of the Rose." >Genrou awaited the oncoming bashings to occur-- JADEITE: It's the bash of the century. > >For Genrou, her movements were a total blur. She wrapped her arms >around him, MALACHITE: When Saiyajins Attack... > and buried her face in his shoulder. > >And Akira began to cry again. ZOISITE: [Akira] Get my old characterization back, quick! > > *** > >Hotohori's head shot up JADEITE: Oh, dear! NEPHLITE: Don't think so. Hotohori will never be in a lemon scene. > when a sudden thump in the bushes was heard. MALACHITE: The bushes are back! >He had thought he heard Nuriko's voice... but >why would Nuriko be sitting in the bushes? ZOISITE: Is there a good answer to that? MALACHITE: No, my love. JADEITE: Nuriko just likes bushes. That's all. > "Anou ne..." > >@_@ Poor Nuriko. He managed to stand up. ~_~ >But not without twitching irritably. NEPHLITE: [Nuriko] Damn self-insertion cat-girl. >Itai... itai.... itai.... (Ow...) > >"Hotohori-sama..." ZOISITE: [Merle] Van-sama... > Nuriko looked at Hotohori without the love sick >puppy eyes. JADEITE: It would be funny if Tasuki did that at the same time. MALACHITE: Another advantage of the split-screen effect in anime. > >Hotohori blinked. NEPHLITE: Just like Eric Severeid. > >Nuriko cleared his throat... as much as a guy could with a girl >huggling JADEITE: Isn't that a brand of diapers? > the stuffings out of him. MALACHITE: [Nekomi] Nuriko, you're my turkey! > -_- Boy was she ecstatic. >The girl had extreme strength, JADEITE: Really, now. Who *doesn't*? NEPHLITE: I remember that Yamiko didn't... Yamiko-sama... > as she had Nuriko's head in a headlock... >without her feet touching the ground. MALACHITE: Gravity? Who needs it? NEPHLITE: It's like a Miyazaki film. ZOISITE: Baka Miyazaki... > >Hotohori's eyesbrows knitted JADEITE: --into a very small sweater. > in confusion as he analyzed her up and >down. MALACHITE: [Hotohori] Funny... it's a girl. ZOISITE: "Analyze"? Like Goku analyzed Bulma? > Silver hair... o.o another gaijin(foreigner)? NEPHLITE: No, just an elf. JADEITE: I'm picturing her like Storm from the X-Men. >And what was Nuriko doing with this girl? o_o NEPHLITE: [Hotohori] Dearest, how could you? [Malachite and Zoisite groan.] >In the bushes of the gardens... JADEITE: Bushes! Why does it always have to be bushes?! > >"NURIKO NURIKO NURIKO NURIKO! ALL: Aaaaargh! > WAI!!!!! I LOVE YOU!!!!!" MALACHITE: [Miaka] Wai! >Nekomi nuzzled her cheek into the softness of >Nuriko-sama's hair. NEPHLITE: Good way to get head lice. > Her clothes were rumpled from the fall... ZOISITE: [Nuriko] They'll come off easier that way! OTHERS: Ummm... er... >but she was saved! SAVED! By Nuriko-sama!! MALACHITE: [Kenshin] Kaoru-dono... > *-* Sigh... >SHE WOULD NOT FAINT!! JADEITE: [Astro Boy] I must succeed! > >Nuriko seemed to have a different.. err.. view. ^_^; NEPHLITE: That's putting it mildly. ZOISITE: [singing] On a different day, in a different light... >His... clothes were now covered a bit in mud, and it was horribly >wrinkled. ;_; JADEITE: [Nuriko, extra-fruity] Oh, how filthy I have become! > It was so HARD to get silk cleaned these days! ZOISITE: Ask Ranma about that. MALACHITE: [Nuriko] So much to do, and so little money... >Even if you were part of the harem. NEPHLITE: I still wanna know how he managed that. JADEITE: Simple. He used disguises and an alias. NEPHLITE: ... > But why did a girl have >to land on him now?! ;_; MALACHITE: All the girls fall for him. How bitterly ironic. ZOISITE: It's like watching Utena. NEPHLITE: Or Saber Marionette J. >He was watching the full grace of Hotohori-sama-- ZOISITE: [Kuno] Osagi no onna... > >But Hotohori-sama was blinking at him. *-* JADEITE: Just blinking? Most people blink. MALACHITE: Maybe Hotohori's just *that* stupid. >Ah... Hotohori-sama was paying attention to HIM! HIM! *-* JADEITE: Wasn't this a Rupert Mills song? NEPHLITE: [singing] Him! Him! Him! What are you gonna do about him... >Ah... would he faint? Would he blush? ZOISITE: What would Nuriko do? > Should he be smooth about it? >Take it in stride? JADEITE: Quote poorly-written Santana songs? MALACHITE: Wear fashionable shoes? > Impress the heika with a smartass line? *-* NEPHLITE: No, that's Tasuki's job. ZOISITE: How perverse. >For Nuriko the possiblities were endless... *-* MALACHITE: The endless nights of El-Hazard. NEPHLITE: Endless, that is, until episode you-know-what. >ah Hotohori-sama... > >"Nuriko..." ZOISITE: [Deedlit] Parn! MALACHITE: [Parn] Deedo? > Hotohori leaned in closer...

What about *Lina*? >"NURIKO!! YOU SAVED ME!!" MALACHITE: I see someone learned how to use Caps Lock effectively. > The girl took another deep breath. NEPHLITE: Any reason why?

He hadn't even remembered about the girl who was... >seemingly attemtpting to squeeze the life . -_-; ZOISITE: Someone's drained Nuriko of his intelligence. NEPHLITE: [Luna] The Negaverse!! >Sigh. So Hotohori-sama cared more about this girl than he did about >Nuriko's own well being? ;_; MALACHITE: Ummm... duh? > Double sigh.

ALL: [Kamui] Kotori!! > Sigh!! How could she be able to talk in such greatness?! JADEITE: Bow down in the presence of the Fruit! ZOISITE: Damn. Now I'm stuck thinking about JujyFruits... > >Hotohori cleared his throat. "Anou... could you speak any slower?" MALACHITE: Please. It will help her avoid unfair Miaka comparisons. JADEITE: [Hotohori] Habla Espanol? Sprechen Sie Deutch? > >The girl was too busy making starry eyes at Nuriko. NEPHLITE: Or maybe that was all the camera's fault. >Nuriko was trying to figure out who this girl was ZOISITE: Simple. She's Clearbrook, but she's half-cat. And she has a personality halfway between Miaka and Yurika. > and why she was >giving such weird looks at him. ;_; ZOISITE: Oh, and she does a convincing Merle impression. JADEITE: I say she's just a psychotic, disturbed freak. MALACHITE: That was harsh... >And why she fell on him. MALACHITE: That would be nice to know. NEPHLITE: Plot contrivance! > Hotohori looked at Nuriko for help. JADEITE: [Nuriko] Sorry. I've got troubles of my own. > >Nuriko graced Hotohori with his smile. Ah Hotohori-sama~! ZOISITE: [Hitomi] Amano-sempai... NEPHLITE: Yoshitaka Amano? ZOISITE: No. [pause] JADEITE: Have we gone through this scene before? NEPHLITE: Umm... >And then graced Nekomi with his dazzling smile, his violet >eyes, JADEITE: Yeah. This is awfully familiar. > some purple tresses that blew across his face, the perfect >way every muscle on his face moved with his smile... MALACHITE: The wonders of ANIMATION! JADEITE: Maybe we're doing an instant replay. ZOISITE: Maybe it's an unannounced flashback. > >"Ne... what did you say?" Nuriko asked. ZOISITE: Ummm... Hotohori asked Nekomi a question, but it's a bit irrelevant now. JADEITE: Like I said... > >"Do I get to be a miko?" Nekomi asked with much calmness, >and restraint. *-* [Everyone applauds her.] MALACHITE: Thanks for listening. > How could one NOT restrain themselves? NEPHLITE: [Nekomi] Ah... Nuriko-sama... ZOISITE: Be quiet. > >Hotohori and Nuriko blinked at each other. "Miko?" (Priestess?) MALACHITE & ZOISITE: [the Seishi] Oro? JADEITE: Spock... explain! >They asked. > >;_; They forgot already?! MALACHITE: That's rather cold, cat-girl. NEPHLITE: How can she expect them to match her pace? > "Hai a miko!! I came from another world, >so got sucked into this er... world, ZOISITE: [Nekomi] Or book. Or alternaverse. Or another dimension. Whatever. > so I get to be a >miko now, hai? NEPHLITE: Actually, you'll either not be a miko, or end up as the Priestess of Genbu. JADEITE: As if it would make a difference to her. > Does that mean I get to replace Miaka and be your miko?" MALACHITE: I'm sure that Konan is looking for replacements. NEPHLITE: What were we saying about the original characters? [pause] JADEITE: If we'll see the replacements, maybe we'll see Tim. > >"NANI?!" ZOISITE: [Ian Kim] Wai! > >"Replace Miaka?!" NEPHLITE: The dream of many an author and fan. > Hotohori banished the thought! JADEITE: I forbid! The Emperor has spoken! ZOISITE: We've established that he thinks and acts just like Kuno. Can we move on now? >No one could replace Miaka in grace, beauty, spirit, personality.. -_- MALACHITE: I won't burst his bubble. >and energy. NEPHLITE: [Miaka] Genki! > Despite her faults, which Hotohori was blind to, JADEITE: Redundant, anyone? OTHERS: Redundant. >Miaka was his one and only miko.

JADEITE: Finally, a Quake III demo. > if this miko were to replace Miaka... perish the thought!! >Was this girl actually telling the truth? MALACHITE: The chance of that is... what... fifty percent? NEPHLITE: Break out the double-sided coin. > She was pretty, >but no one could replace Miaka!! NEPHLITE: Except for all those Pretty Soldiers.

MALACHITE: [Hotohori] Screw, repeat. > This pretty girl with weird clothes sure did >act a lot like Miaka, ZOISITE: What an original, profound observation. > and she acted like she knew her.... and she >even had a similar outfit... sorta... to Miaka's!! ZOISITE: At least she's wearing clothes... JADEITE: Wonder if she stole the outfit. NEPHLITE: Creativity... gone! >What if she REALLY WAS to replace Miaka?! MALACHITE: The fans would enjoy it. >Suzaku NOOOOOOOOO!!!! ZOISITE: Trumpy, no!! > Hotohori fell over in a daze. @_@ JADEITE: There he goes again. MALACHITE: [Ruri] Another fool... > >"Not... replace... Miaka..." Hotohori twitched on the ground, NEPHLITE: [Hotohori] Don't mind me. I'll just die now. >and quickly sat up. But he was still dazed. JADEITE: Darn! > >Nuriko was still stuck in that last sentence. ALL: Duh? >"Miko?" NEPHLITE: [Inaho] O-Part! > His eyes were strangely in shock and surprise. It seems that >Nuriko and Hotohori couldn't register the thought of another miko. JADEITE: Loading... loading... ZOISITE: They're equipped with AOL. How hideous! >Well, that was for Nuriko, but Hotohori couldn't get over the >thought of somone replacing Miaka. MALACHITE: [Hotohori] Duh... I may never have an original thought again. > >Nekomi sighed. It was gonna be a loooooong day. *-* ZOISITE: [Nekomi] I'm surrounded by idiots. JADEITE: She's as smart as the day is long. >But that thought was pushed away as she was still being held >by a dumbfounded Nuriko so that was ok... NEPHLITE: She just wants Nuriko for her "collection." How twisted! >and it was so romantic... *-* JADEITE: In a really twisted, distasteful way. > it was just getting dark... and >Nuriko looked so handsome, or AKA pretty damn GOOD, NEPHLITE: Good?

JADEITE: He's dead. > >"Not every bloody day I find you with a sleepin' chick on your >back, and finding you gone the whole day." ZOISITE: What was Kouji expecting?

MALACHITE: I liked it, except for the cliches. There's gotta be a better way to get new characters in the Fushigi world. On the other hand, I've never seen a Tasuki romance story-- that worked rather well. JADEITE: The swearing got old, and the characterization was pretty weak. Apart from that, there's a decent story here. NEPHLITE: I miss Yamiko...

[The others sigh.] JADEITE: It's time to go. ZOISITE: Let's see what destruction Michiru has brought upon our world... [They leave.] -- The first thing they noticed was the blast of wind running through the room. That would have been normal had they not been in Nega-Hell. The generals looked at the throne room. "Disaster zone" would have been an understatement. The once-fashionable blue walls were crumbling, and the paint had been stripped off. The elaborate gold throne was in five pieces, all over the dais. The chairs and card table were nowhere to be seen. "Michiru-san?" Zoisite whispered. She didn't see the woman anywhere. "Beryl-sama?" Nephlite whispered. The queen was gone, too. The two whispering generals slowly turned toward each other, and exchanged angry glances. "Oooh, how dare you!" they simultaneously screamed. Jadeite just sighed. Malachite threw his hands high and said, "We could be here for quite some time." -- TO BE CONTINUED in [name withheld] -Alan March 26, 2000 e-mail: ChrOtaku@xoommail.com Anime humor: members.xoom.com/ChrOtaku Nega-Hell: fanficoutlet.tripod.com/negahell Elfquest spoofs: eq_addiction.tripod.com "Sailor Moon," and everything associated with it, is copyright 1992-7 Naoko Takeuchi, Bandai, Kodansha Comics, DiC, Buena Vista, Mixx, Pioneer, and others.
