Dead Moon Wash
Ch 4
A/N: In the American release both the trio and the quartet are called “remless” this could an innuendo to the lack of REM sleep. Remless is the single and the plural.
“Did you hear the Sailor Scouts are here?” One of the freaks whispered w6
“Did you hear the that the Sailor Scouts are here?!” One of the freaks said nervously.
“What if they attack and kiss all of us?!” Another spoke up.
“I heard they were converted to our side.” A third added, he was quite large and trying to reassure the others. Several of the freaks wondered what this would me as they looked around at each other unsure where this left the.
“They put the pink haired girl with the Amazon Quartet, I saw her.” A somewhat shrill voiced freak said. It surprised everyone, and though none dared to speak it they were all wondering what their queen was thinking. Suddenly a chilly gust of wind preceded the arrival of Mistress Zirconia.
“The Amazon Quartet is now the Amazon Quint,” she said simply. There was a collective gasp that issued from the other circus members; it didn’t take psychic awareness to feel the panic starting to rise.
“What’s going to happen to us?” One of them finally had the fear driven courage to ask.
“We will continue on with our work, the Queen still needs dreams for her revival and eventually we will find Pegasus.” Zirconia assured them.
“Then what about the Scouts?!” One called.
“Death help us if they turn on us!” Another added and soon there was a buzzing of fearful voices all thinking along the same lines.
“SILENCES!” Zirconia called and when she reached for her staff the fearful freaks scattered to the shadows. She knew they were still there though and sighed.
“New recruits, come forward and introduce yourself.” Zirconia ordered, Sailor moon walked in first flanked by Mars and Mercury to her left and Jupiter and Venus to her right.
“Silver Knight!” The woman formerly know as Sailor Moon said, her aura cold and deadly.
“Aqua Knight!” Mercury followed, her once shy personality now a bit arrogant.
“Fire Knight!” Mars added, her inner strength now making her hard as stone.
“Lightening Knight!” Jupiter said, her eyes full of hate and anger.
“Heartless Knight!” Venus said, her change was as drastic at Sailor Moon’s she bad become cruel and calculating. Zirconia nodded her approval of their announcements and changes; she felt the other freaks start to relax and nodded to herself. It had been the right to choice to present them here in front of everyone.
“Excellent! Now, Queen Nehelenia has the first assignment for her Amazon Knights!”
“What does our Queen command? We are happy to serve, right girls?” Silver said, the others quickly agreed with her.
“Your mission is to track down this man and bring him back alive.” Zirconia said as she displayed an image of Darien appeared and floated to the girls.
“He's cute,” LK said, making Zirconia smile. It was a testament to strong the Queen’s powers had become that they didn't recognize him.
“We’ll bring him to you immediately, Mistress.” SK vowed. They turned and left, vanishing into the shadows.
