The New Scouts
(page 4)
*******************
Nyo and Amador are on the Ferris wheel kissing when all of a sudden it jolts to a stop with them at the top. Nyo is almost thrown out. Amador catches Nyo and helps her back up. "What's going on down there?" The two look down to see people scrambling about.
Nyo removes herself from his hold and looks down to see everyone running away from the carnival! She looks around for what has happened. She finally spots what everyone is running from... a pack of werewolves. "Damn it!" She looks for away down, gets out of the Ferris wheel box and starts to climb down.
Amador looks at Nyo in shock. "What are you doing? Where are you going?"
Nyo looks up. "You wanna come? Fine! But I got a job to do!"
Amador looks down and gulps. "You can go ahead; I'll wait for you up here."
"Fine with me!" She jumps down the last 20 ft and lands in a crouched position and looks around for the werewolves. One of them start heading towards her and jumps to attack her. Nyo Whirls around and falls to on her back, digs her feet into his stomach, uses his momentum and vaults him into the roller coaster. More werewolves head toward her and the other gets up.
She crouches down and gets her fist in a fighting position. "What do your fur faces want?" She snarls.
Myo chuckles and says, "You've still got that fighting spirit even though you're outnumbered."
Nyo looks around for him. "Where are you, you bloodsucker? And how can you be out here in the sunlight?"
He laughs some more. "I'm not there, I'm in you. You're the only one who can hear me right now."
She growls, "Get the hell outta my head you bloodsucker!"
"I would, but I'm having too much fun having you squirm when I talk."
"Who’s to say I’m squirming?!"
"Don't try to deny it! I can feel you squirming."
Nyo growls again before she’s tackled to the ground by a werewolf in human form. She kicks him off of her. She is shocked to see who it is and growls and kicks him. She stands up before snarling, "GET OUT OF MY HEAD!"
Myo laughs and it slowly begins to fade away.
Nyo shakes her head. "Finally!" She goes over to the Ferris wheel presses a button that brings Amador down. The werewolves disappear and Nyo and Amador walk out of the carnival toward his car.
*******************
Meanwhile, back with Serena, Darien, and Serene...
Serene sits up quickly then turns to Darien. "Quick! Go to the burger joint down the street... QUICKLY!"
Darien is a little surprised and confused goes to the burger joint.
Nyo is inside tending to her wound on her leg and arm with Amador.
Darien peeks in through the window of the burger place and returns to Serene* It's Nyo, she's hurt. She's with a guy tending her wounds.
Nyo winces as she wraps her arm up.
Serene gets up and heads to the burger place, leaving Darien, Serena, and Andrew behind. She gets there and sees Nyo. "What happened? Are you ok?"
Nyo looks up. "Ohh I’m fine I guess! Some werewolves attacked the carnival grounds!"
Serene looks at Nyo and then looks at Amador. "Oh, I see." She finishes wrapping Nyo's wounds and puts a hand on each, healing them up without anyone noticing.
Nyo whispers, "Thanks!" Then, she says aloud, "We have to get back to a safe area! Maybe an apartment!?"
Just then, Darien, Serena and Andrew walk in and see Serene and Amador 'helping' Nyo up.
"Hey guys! Umm, can we go over to your place Darien? Just so Nyo can rest a while," she says as she winks.
Nyo looks up at Darien. "DARIEN!?!?!?"
Darien winces. "Hey there Nyo." He looks at Serene. "Sure, let's all go." He looks at Andrew. "You don't mind if we move this date over to my house?"
"Nope!" Just then Nyo jumps up and flies into Darien, hugging him tightly.
Darien is a little surprised and pushes her back. "Whoa, where did that come from?"
Nyo looks up at him happily. "I missed you! You stupid male!"
Darien blushes. "Well, I guess we're on good terms now, huh?"
Nyo punches his arm. "Nope! I still haven't forgiven you for that Pink hair dye trick!"
"Well, let's go over to Darien's apartment, shall we?" Serena motions for them to leave.
Nyo nods. "YUP!" She looks at Amador. "Coming?"
"I think I've had too much excitement for one day."
"Oh okay!" She goes over, leans down and kisses him.
Kitty opens her eyes and looks up. "Who, who is that?"
"I don't know." Shifter holds her head in pain.
"I am the protector of all good and the one who defends the entire universe. I am the Cosmic Knight."
"HUH?????????" Shifter tries to get out of Myo's arms. Myo and Mike sneer at Cosmic Knight and put the girls into a cage that appears out of nowhere. They head towards the Knight and attack him.
"He looks so familiar" Kitty looks at the Knight, who is wearing a silver suit and cape. It's almost exactly like Tuxedo Mask's but instead of a vest; he's wearing a long Silver shirt that goes up to his chin under his coat.
Shifter bangs on the bars of the cage and whips out her sword.
Kitty whips out a sword as well. "We have to get out of her and help him!" She sees the Cosmic Knight on the floor and Myo and Mike ganging up on him.
"THAT'S IT!!" Shifter slices the bars open, turns into a wolf and runs after Mike.
The Scouts finish all the wolves and vamps and head towards them. Tuxedo Mask arrives there first and helps Cosmic Knight fend off Myo and Mike, who has dodged Shifter and returned to attacking Cosmic Knight.
Shifter skids around and leaps onto Mike's back, her teeth in his throat.
Mike throws off Shifter and yells to Myo. "Let's go. We've done enough here already." He laughs and he and Myo disappear.
Shifter growls as blood flows out of her mouth.
Kitty is horrified by Shifter's appearance. "You didn't have to do that!"
Shifter turns human and wipes the blood away and goes over to the Cosmic Knight. "Who are you?"
The Cosmic Knight gets up and wipes himself down. "I'm just a friend." *he smiles and leaps into the air and disappears.
"I can't put my finger on it, but he looks so familiar!!" Kitty ponders and then realizes, "Omg! Andrew! He's been watching all of this! We have to go check on him."
They all run to Andrew and find him gone. Shifter runs towards the crown arcade.
"Wait Shifter! WE can't just go around looking like this!" Kitty looks at their tattered and torn clothes. Shifter keeps running when she falls into a portal and all every one hears is a howl as she falls.
Kitty sees her fall and runs. "No!!!" The portal disappears.
*******************
Sailor Shifter drops in human form onto a throne then rolls off of it to the floor. "How nice of you to drop in." Mike grins. Shifter wakes up and starts to get up. Mike looks around. "You closed the portal too early!! Where's Kitty?!" Myo steps out and Mike throws something at him, knocking him down to the floor.
Shifter finally gets up then looks at Mike. "YOU!!!!!!!!!" She lunges at him*
Mike dodges Shifter and a strange force pushes her down to the ground and she is unable to move. "You think you can even touch me here?" Shifter tries to get up.
"It's no use in fighting it; you'll never be able to get up," Myo snickers.
Shifter glares. "I can sure as hell try!" She starts to slowly get up.
Mike makes the force stronger and pins her to the floor. "You have been such a pest lately... I think I'll keep you in the dungeons for now." He waves and two vamps appear and carry Shifter away, who struggles and swears all the way.
*******************
Meanwhile, back with all of the Scouts, they continue to search for a way to find Sailor Shifter.
"Nothing is registering in my computer. I can't find any trace of a portal anywhere!" Ami says as she continues searching.
Shifter is in chains and is trying to get out of them.
"I can feel her close by. Something's wrong, we have to find her!!" Serene looks up in tears at everyone.
Shifter screams a wordless scream.
Serene hears the scream. "Omg, we have to find her, she's hurt. You guys, we have to do something!"
Shifter telepathically says, "I'm not hurt Kitty just PISSED!!" Just then Mike comes in.
Serene, telepathically responds, "Thank goodness! Where are you? What happened?"
"I'm in Mike's castle, the bastard." Shifter looks at Mike with disgust and gets up, her hands behind her because of the chains.
Mike senses what Shifter is doing and says, "I know you can hear me Kitty! You'll never be able to help your friend here. But, if you agree to take her place, I will let her go." Shifter jerks at the chains tries to get to him.
"I'll never let you have me. You took me away from my family once; I won't let you do it again!"
Shifter continues to try to get loose and lunges at him.
Mike tightens the chains and it pulls her back. "You fools! You will be mine Serene, no matter what!" He closes the dungeon door and puts a spell over Shifter so she and Serene can no longer talk to one another.
Shifter yells at him with many Choice words.
Serene looks at everyone. "I can't talk to her anymore! I wasn't able to find out exactly where they where, but it seemed dark, gloomy, and very cold."
Shifter tugs at the chains as they come loose a bit.
Serene begins to cry. "I have no choice; I have to trade myself for her. I can't let her stay with that man! I know him well enough to know what he's going to do with her. Please, we have to find a way to save her, or else I must trade myself." She goes to Serena and Darien and begins sobbing between the two.
*******************
One of the chains gives away with a clatter. Myo hears the noise and rushes to Shifter. "Don't you even think about it!" More chains appear on her and she falls to the ground.
