Chapter 2: The Hunted <Mamoru> And the horror and agony goes on... As soon as the gun went off, the man ran into the alley after Pyra. Pyra panted deeply in the alley. What have I done. I let another friend die. <Usagi> *backs away* I'm no friend of yours.. <Taiki> I'll tell you what you've done. You've abused and neglected your comma key, that's what you've done! This time a mage. The first mage that's death is responsible. "Call an ambulance!" Yelled someone. <Usagi> Shoosh! Let me die! I can't let another die. I must. <Usagi> Yes! Let her! Let her die!! But I can't. Poralitinese tells not to use magic in public. <Seiya> *raises eyebrows* Again with the imported porno films? <Yaten> Mexican porno with moral messages... how.. interesting. <Usagi> *shrieks* Kill fanfic Usagi! NOW!!! No, no. I must. I will. <Rei> Coulda, shoulda, woulda. <Yaten> Would if I could but I can't so I won't?? <Taiki> I THINK I can, I THINK I can! *makes the motion for pulling a train whistle* <Seiya> Whoa there, calm down, Thomas. -_- She ran out of alley into the rabble of people. Already, police and an ambulance was already there. <Taiki> Ouch! Painful grammar!! *Ami and Taiki huddle in the corner, eyes like deer caught in car headlights* All right. If I'm not mistaken, his bullets would have stripped uranium tips. Damn, she'd die by the end of the hour. <All> Damn. <Usagi> Yahoo! I'm not gonna be in the fanfic anymore! Ha ha ha.... Hell with it. "Move it!" She pulled out a pistol from her trench coat and <Makoto> Shot the author! Ended the story! <Yaten> Killed a squirrel! Shot herself in the foot! fired up in the air. <All> Yeehaw! <Rei> Brilliant move. <Minako> *as Pyra* Git tha hell outa my way! Shoo! *points finger into the air and fires* Stupid mistake. <Makoto> Oh no.... she's revealed herself to the Smoking Police, they who rule the world with an iron fist! <Seiya> Don't start that up again, Makato. <Usagi> Makato! Hee hee hee!! : ) "It's her. She had the gun!" They yelled. What- <Michiru> My sentiments exactly. The police acted swiftly, and nearly tackled her. <Makoto> You see?! See what I mean?!!! The SP got her! With a fray of energy bolts sent them back, and she got to Usagi's body. <Usagi> Nooo... get her away, she's going to save me.... The people had backed off. Good, this should teach them. She could hear her light breathing. She must be feeling a lot of pain. <Mamoru> Hmm, you don't say. She put the pistol on the ground. She placed her hand over the bleeding wound. Something forced its way out of the hole. <Makoto> An alien species. <Usagi> Yeeew! >.< <Haruka> The sub sandwich she ate for lunch, maybe? <Seiya> The script? <Usagi> Blech!! <Taiki> No... a bullet? A bullet. <Taiki> Ha! <Makoto and Haruka> Damn. As soon as the bullet had exited, the wound, blood and all, healed shut. <Usagi> Damn! NO! The people looked shocked. She picked up the gun, and pointed straight at her friends. <All> Aaaah!!! 0_0 <Ami> *as Pyra* Some friends you are! You almost let her die... now I'm going to kill YOU for your carelessness! "If this ever happens again, I'm not around to heal her. Take better care." <Michiru> You know, with all the crazy mental cases running around Crystal Tokyo, we need to find a better way to take care of Usagi. <Setsuna> We need insurance! <Seiya> Yeah.. we can get Usagi life insurance! She tossed them the bullet. Just great. Already a week in, and I'm convicted of holding a gun, using magic in public, and linked to an attempted murder. <Ami> Excuse me, but technically, _holding_ a gun is not an offense. Firing it into a crowd, however, is. <Rei> Yeah, using "magic" in public. *twiddles her fingers in the air to make quote signs* *aside to Yaten* This woman is a whackjob. She stepped away, and instantly vanished in thin air · · · <Yaten> ...? <Rei> ...! <Minako> ... I like using dots! A phone call arrived at Usagis house in the middle of the night. <Seiya> Hey, listen... do you hear that? <Usagi> Uh, what..? *blinks* <Seiya> A phone call arriving for Usagi! *points to the door* <Usagi> *opens it to find a large telephone sitting in front* <Minako> Yaaaahh!!! o_0 *flies into the door and slams it shut* Big scary telephone..... She was curled up in her bed, unable to sleep. Already, Pyra knows that she was Sailor Moon, and Usagi knows that Pyra could do magic. So does everyone else. <Rei> Yes, uh huh, "magic". *twiddles fingers* She answered, annoyed, the phone with a loud yawn. <Taiki> *tears of laughter* W-what the hell kind of sentence is that?! <Ami> *huddles in dark corner of the room* Sounds like Usagi annoyed the phone with a loud yawn. <Setsuna> The verb tense... is it too much to ask that the author pick one verb tense and stick with it? "You are Princess Serenity, right?" What? Asking me if I'm the Princess? <Makoto> That's what they SAID, dimbulb... The phone wants to know if you're the princess! <Usagi> *as fanfic Usa* Mwuuh..? Is this some kind of survey? I'm not the lady of the house, if that's what you mean.... <Yaten> Asking himself if suicide is really the only way out. <Minako> Asking herself should I risk facing the Big Telephone outside the door to escape? "Are you, or aren't you?" The voice struck her familiarly, as some off-distant memory of a cloaked angel, standing in the middle of a barren wasteland. <All> *raise eyebrows* <Setsuna> *shakes head* She shuddered at the vision. "I need an answer. By this time, next week, I want an answer, if not, I'll kill you anyway." <Mamoru> Well then, what's the point of living in fear for a week? Fanfic Usagi should just go ahead and do herself in. <Seiya> That's right! If only she'd kill herself. She'd be sparing other people a lot of pain in the future... <Makoto> Namely us. We need to get out of this horrific place. <Rei> If she died we'd get out a _lot_ quicker. The phone clicked off. <Seiya> Ooh, the suspense. <Yaten> The undeniable respite and cessation. <Taiki> Gimme that Thesaurus! You don't even know what those words mean... >_< *grabs book from Yaten* · · · <Minako> Hee! ...! ...!! Pyra entered the Crown Game Center. She scanned the room for Usagi. Good, no one noticed me. <Seiya> It hasn't occured to her that maybe they don't _want_ to notice her.. Hey, they got the new Sailor V game in. Wait, good, her friend's are there to. This should redeem easier than I thought. <Ami and Taiki> AAAAUGGHHH!!!! *both grab each other's shoulders and shiver* The grammar! She strided over to them. <Setsuna> That's 'strode', you nimbus, 'STRODE'! *slaps side of head* They hadn't noticed her at first, but soon they saw, saw her as if she were invisible. And she was. <All> *facefault* <Yaten> What the HFIL does that mean??! Huh?! "Good day, Sailors," she said to herself. <Taiki> *to himself* Good day, Taiki. <Makoto> Aarggh! Top o' the mornin' to ye, lassie..! *dons an eyepatch and a sailor's cap* I wonder if they can see me? She swayed her hands in front of the display monitor. Wait, what are they saying? Makato she hear first, "I honestly don't trust her. Ever since last week." <Usagi> Oh, look, it our good friend Makato! Hey Makato! *giggles* <Makoto> Where the HFIL Makoto in this story? <Taiki> Also, where the HFIL be grammar correctly in this story? Then Luna, "Indeed. <Taiki> Then Luna Indeed? <Yaten> Always Then Luna and never Then Yaten. When it be Yaten's turn to Indeed? I may have reason to believe that she could be from the negaverse, or some where equally evil." <Ami> Negaverse with a capital 'N', you goofball fanfic Luna. <Seiya> You'd think that with that articulate English accent, she'd also have a good sense of capitalization. <Taiki> And she wouldn't mix her NA versions with her Japanese ones. <Rei> The Negaverse was referred to as the Dark Kingdom in the Japanese version. Any _real_ fan knows that. *rolls eyes* Well, at least they think greater of me. Have they seen me yet? Good, I'll just leave this note. She set the note down gently. And then Makato grabbed her wrist. Damn. <All> Damn. *nod* Did the spell wear off? <Makoto> Take a guess, smart one! -_- "We were just talking about you, what is that you want?" She whispered Damn. <All> Damn! <Taiki and Makoto> Darn you! Darn you all to HFIL!! "I just wanted to give you this note." She swayed it in the air. <Usagi> Um.... say, guys, why are we suddenly speaking in italics? <Seiya> Don't know.. maybe because the story is, for no obvious reason, completely in italics now. <Minako> The squiggly letters are making me dizzy... @_@ "What does it say?" Pyra noticed that she was the only one looking. "It says that I need your services, as Sailors that is. About five hundred plats for it." <Michiru> Plats? <Haruka> Zzzz.... <Setsuna> *slaps Haruka on the arm* Wake up! You've got to get out of this habit of falling asleep in fanfics all the time!! <Haruka> Whaaa...huh...?? >_0 <Minako> *as Makato* No thanks... I already have enough plates at home to last me a lifetime. <Makoto> *to Pyra* Aargh! Gimme a tall ship and a celestial diety to sail 'er by, and we'll sell our sailin' services! "What are you talking about?" <Michiru> Yeah, Makato, what ARE you talking about?? 0_- Damn, I'll just shut off this damnable spell. <All> Damn, damn, damn! <Usagi> *falls out of chair laughing* She phased back to reality. <Rei> Aha! You see? This author's not living in reality.... <Seiya> Kirk to bridge, I seem to be stuck in some sort of incredibly lame fanfic.. <Yaten> The author's getting high off window cleaning solvent and writing this stuff just to torture us!! "Okay, Sailors-" <Makoto> *flips up eyepatch and puffs on bubble pipe* Aaarggh? Yes? Something yanked at Pyra's coat, before she could finish. She was swung right through the window. She hit the ground hard. Her arm slammed in first, she felt pain sear across it. <Usagi> Ha ha! <All> *disapproving stares* <Usagi> What? What??? <Mamoru> When you laugh, do it like you _mean_ it, usako. MUUWAHAHAAH!!!!! <Usagi> *claps* Yipee! Psychotic evil laughter time! <All> MWAHAHAHAHAH!!!! Pyra then saw him, it was him, the same man who shot Usagi. Nearly instantly, he used the hand with his rifle, and pointed straight at her. She heard the bang go off. Pain spread across her stomach. She felt another object pull into her body. Two bullets, Crap. <Haruka> He's pouring two bullets and some crap in her stomach. <Makoto> Why doesn't he just kill them all? This 'one at a time' business is really slow, both plot-wise and comprehension-wise. Aarggh. *blows some bubbles at Haruka's head* <Haruka> Aaarggh! Stop that!!! *pops them* <All> Awww.... *sad looks* Spoilsport. <Usagi> Hey, Haruka's a sailor too! She said 'aaaarghh'! She opened her eyes, despite the pain, and saw another bullet heading straight for her head. <All> Hahahah! See ya later! ^.^ It hovered, nearly touching her eyebrow. She could see the glowing green tip. A voice boomed in her head, and everyone else heard it to. Well, well, well, Kaide. It appears that you have once again claimed another victim for your head collection. <Minako> Is she.... is she talking to us? "Bruul! I thought you were killed when I pumped that poison in you!" Just shows that you have to get every one of your target's head. You didn't get the reward, now did you? <All> WHAAT?!! <Ami> Sense! Sense!! Make some _sense_!!!! A cloaked figure jumped down from a five story building, and landed on who ever it was's feet, perfectly. <Mamoru> Ouch! Those were MY feet, you sunnuvabitch!! >_< I am not this person that you refer to as 'Bruul'. I am no one in particular, just your fate. "More! What!?" <Usagi> Who! Where?! <Minako> Why?! How??! He was enraged, and reloaded his rifle. The bullet which stood right at Pyra's head nearly turned to liquid. Do not underestimate us. We have the upper hand of numbers. <Makoto> Aaarr! I knew it! They be the dreaded Smokin' Police, and they be out to get us ALLLL. *looks at everyone individually, in turn* Heheheh.. <Usagi> Aarrr! Look, Mako! I'm a pirate!! *snickers* Pyra felt pain still exploding in her stomach. The pain was worse than before. She wanted to die, right now, right here. <All> We want her to! Yeah! *hooting and clapping ensues* Though, something wasn't letting her do so, <Taiki> Damn it! something was keeping her alive. For what? Why must I suffer like this? <Haruka> The better question: why must _we_ suffer like this? <Ami> *keeps huddling in dark corner of the room* "Well, I'll just make examples of some one." Two stray shots in the direction of police officers, knocking them down. <Makoto> Hah!! Take that, Smoking Police! Your iron fist ain't so..uh, iron anymore, is it? >: ) He pulled out a dagger, a pure diamond dagger, and threw it directly towards her. She caught the dagger with a swift movement of her hand before it was suppose to smack into her head. <Seiya> No... smack her up, dagger! Smack her up good!! <Michiru> Uh, if I wanted to kill someone with a dagger, I'd throw it with a bit more intention than attempting to smack her with it... <Yaten> ..maybe throw it with intention to maim her with it. <Seiya>... stab her with it. <Rei> ... kill her with it? She must of loved you to give you this. She chucked it back, and ripped right into his cars hood. <Minako> He's got a car? <Yaten> She ripped into his car's hood! Ouch!! <Usagi> She loved him enough to give him a diamond dagger, or a car?? <Michiru> Is she talking to the assassin or to the police officer?! I don't understaaand!! *throws arms into the air* Sailor Moon walked in, right in front the yellow-cloaked figure. He bursted out firing an Uzi. <All> Ugh..... -_- <All> AAAAHH!!!! *the rooms falls into a state of chaos and frenzy* <Makoto> Is that supposed to have some sort of cliffhanger effect on us? <Seiya> Like I said before, we definitely need to get Usagi life insurance. <Taiki> Not even five minutes past the last time she almost died and already she's dying again..
