Moonblade Series Chapter 2: The Cinnabar Midnight Jade lurked about the halls of their newly taken base, sweeping across the vast expanses, letting his mind wander over his plans again. Obsidian had neither failed nor succeeded, but Onyx was a very strict commander. Nothing but complete success was tolerated in his legions, and that was a fact Jade could use to his advantage. However, as he rounded the corner leading into Onyx's self-styled throne room, he found his fellow lieutenant already kneeling at the giant's feet. The sniveling toad was all but groveling already. "Please liege, give me another chance!" he was saying as Jade crept into the room, "I did so well, and I can do so much better!" "Your monster was defeated, and you were forced into a retreat," Onyx said, critical but not yet angry, "I wouldn't say you did so very well." "But Onyx, have you seen the energy I harvested? It's enough to bring forth a gaggle of demons in your service! And I did it with only one, at that!" Obsidian gestured to the ball of white light and mist hovering just off the ground before him. Jade had to admit, it was a sizable collection. It was then that the soldier noticed his rival had something else with him, a human woman wearing a collar, kept on a chain a few feet from Obsidian. "And I did not retreat. I merely thought better of fighting when I already had the source of this power caught," he continued, tugging on the woman's chain for emphasis. Jade gave the girl a once over before making his presence known. "Fool," he began as he walked to the two, "have you not tested her? She's a flatscan. Her energy couldn't fill a thimble, it was the other one who had so much power to offer." Onyx had obviously bestowed his full interest on Jade now, leaving Obsidian to clamber for attention, "But, she was a mere child! She couldn't have been so powerful!" "And yet you seem proud of allowing a mere child to escape you," Jade sneered derisively for a moment, before continuing, "this girl would be most useful to us, Onyx. Allow me to bring her, and you will have her here by nightfall." Obsidian started to growl out a complaint, no doubt about how he had seen her first, but Onyx ended the immature squabbling with a dismissive wave of his gigantic hand, "Very well, Jade. This is your night to capture the girl, use it well." With a taunting grin to Obsidian and a respectful bow to Onyx, Jade vanished in a burst of brownish fire. Rei was brushing off the temple altar when she heard the doors fly open. Peering over her shoulder see saw Makoto, practically carrying Usagi, stomp into the room. Makoto was filled with fire and rage, but Usagi appeared to be almost unconscious, making tiny sniffling sounds. "Storm keep you up all night?" Rei quipped as she set the broom aside, turning to them. "Shut up, Rei," Makoto almost growled as she continued forward, "we've got a big problem." Luna bounced out from behind the girls, nodding sagely, "The Negaverse has already attacked! They kidnapped Usagi's mother and badly hurt Chibiusa." Rei's eyes went wide and her grin turned immediately to a grimace, "What did they do to her?" Luna shook her head sadly, "You don't need to hear it, Rei. Physically she's bruised and sore, but mentally the trauma will certainly be a permanent scar on her personality . . ." Ami and Minako, attracted by the commotion, were coming out of the back room. Ami stepped in first with a worried look to Usagi, then gazed down at Luna, "How did they know Usagi was a Scout and where she lived? It doesn't make sense." Makoto was helping Usagi into a chair, but kept her attention on the conversation, "They're a lot tougher than we thought," she replied almost softly. "In any event," Artemis began, peeking out from behind Minako, "we've got to fight to get Usagi's mother back. We have to find these guys and save her." Rei sighed and pointed to one of the windows, "The power's still out, we'd have to do almost everything on foot too. We'd never be able to cover the whole city." "At least the storm seems to have passed," Ami added. "Then we're going hunting," Makoto said with a snarl, standing straight and tall, "they won't get away with this, not while I'm around." Rei looked to Usagi then, trying not to seem too worried, "Is she okay . . ?" Luna nodded slowly, cutting off whatever Makoto was going to say, "She's just badly shooken up, she and I will stay here while you search to try and keep an eye on things. Now you have to hurry, before they attack again!" With a unified nod of determination, the girls grabbed their equipment and stormed out the door, transforming in unison. Within seconds the were racing into the busier part of the city, chattering out commands to one another by communicator like a true fighting unit. Jade balanced precariously on the very tip of a radio tower, using it as a watch point. With the power out, little could be done in the city, and the usual unbearable crowds were strangely absent. It made it that much easier for his eagle-eye vision to spot the lone runners racing through the city streets. He rose his hand into the air slowly, flicking his fingers about a few times in an archaic symbolism, before snapping his wrist back down to point into an alley way. A flash of black light shot out and started to unravel, creating a humanoid form of black ribbons in the alley. Jade gave a satisfied nod, looking back to the girl approaching him from down the street . . . Rei was making good time, despite having to stop every few moments to scan the terrain for Negavibes. She had disagreed wholeheartedly with the idea of splitting up, wanting to at least form two teams of two, but time dictated different. Defeated by the logic of the team, she chose to patrol the west side of the city in her search. Her hair billowed out behind her like a cape as she ran into yet another alley, only to come out on another empty street. She knew the city well, but the vacancy made it all so alien. Every few minutes she'd see someone, who would give her a suspicious look that could be expected for a girl running full speed down the road in a sailor fuku. Still though, she hadn't sensed a single Negavibe. The world around her abruptly darkened as her sixth sense kicked in, screaming of evil and danger approaching. It was too late to move, so all she could do was cross her hands protectively in front of her as she was hit, rolling with the momentum of her run for several yards down the street. Raising her eyes from the street slowly, she saw some kind of strange immaterial creature hovering ten feet from her. It looked like a single, super-long black ribbon, wrapped around and around into the shape of a person, but it was empty on the inside. Whatever it was, it was surprisingly strong for a mass of whirling cloth. She called fire forth, spraying the creature with a gout of red-hot flame. It seemed to unravel itself to regroup around the fire, letting it pass right through to hit a car behind it, lighting it up. As soon as the heat had passed it pulled itself back together, completely unfazed. The creature lunged forward with superhuman agility, giving Mars only a matter of seconds to avoid it. With a groan she threw herself sideways, skidding on her shoulder, but managing to dodge the assault. The ribbon-thing turned in midair and started to come at her again while she was still pulling up to her feet. With a curse she lined up her fingers toward it and began a Shinto chant, calling the flames from within her. "Mars Fire . . . Ignite!" she screamed, sending a jet of burning flame out in the direction of the fiend. It dodged again, far from the fire, but had to move off course from her to do so. It smashed down into the concrete three feet away, knocking chunks of it into the air. Mars hurried to her feet as it was recovering. She started to tread backward, putting some distance between her and the creature. As it rose up from the dust she put all her concentration on it, summoning celestial fireballs, sending a wave of shuriken-like flame blades at it en masse. The monster came undone, forming into a single long ribbon as it unraveled, zooming through the air toward her. No matter how many fireballs went toward it, the lithe, narrow ribbon was too small and quick to be hit. With a panicked scream she stumbled back and fell onto her backside, just as it started to wrap around her arm. Within mere seconds it was swooshing around and around her, moving up her arm and over her chest, down her legs and around her head, wrapping her completely. She struggled and groaned in agitation, stumbling about the street, tearing at the strands with her fingernails in vain. She felt a powerful warmth come over her, from the inside out, and started to grow faint . . . Then, to her surprise, the creature separated from her, leaving her to fall dizzily onto the pavement. Opening her eyelids slowly, she saw in her sideways view something red . . . almost like . . . heels? Red pumps, with six inch heels, exactly she wore, and in them were feet . . . legs . . . her eyes kept moving higher and higher in astonishment, only to find that it was her to the finest detail. The face, the sailor fuku, the shape . . . the only difference she could find was the flame red hair where she had raven tresses. Still in shock, she couldn't even move as her duplicate kneeled down with her, placing a fingertip to her lips. It pressed its own lips into a sensuous pout, making a little "shhh" sound. Scared as she was, Rei was petrified by her surprise. The creature kneeled down in front of her, feet on the ground and knees bent, elbows resting on them. In her awkward position, Rei couldn't help but look right up her skirt, at the shapely thighs, the subtle curves of her tight panties, drawn taught against her pubic mound. Her clone slipped her soft hands under her cheeks, lifting her face up slowly. She made sure to direct her gaze right into her obscenely tight panties before pulling it on up to look her in the eye, leaning ever closer. She spoke in a soft, sultry tone, almost a whisper, "Look familiar?" Rei mouthed out the words slowly before composing herself enough to speak them, flushed from head to toe at the treatment this thing was giving her, "You . . . you-you're me, but how . . ?" The proxy continued to pull her up and forward, forcing her to draw up on her hands and knees. Though she could feel its incredible strength, the hands caressing her cheek were gentle and slow, brushing them with angel touches, "Is how as important as why?" it replied cryptically before pulling her further forward, slipping its full red lips deftly across her own. Filled with anger, the black-haired enchantress began thrashing and screaming, muffled by the kiss that was already turning rough. The hands on her cheeks became a vice, holding her against the clone's soft lips, forcing her mouth open so the creature's warm, moist tongue could enter her, rolling across the roof of her mouth seductively. The insidious clone was crawling onto her slowly, forcing her backward into a sitting position, pushing her curvaceous form against Rei's body. Rei let her tongue dart back and forth, trying to avoid contact with the copy's, but it only served to excite the perverse demon. The creature continued to push ever forward, leaning Mars onto the ground, stomach-up. It purred into her mouth with excitement and it brought the apex of its thighs down onto her thigh, wrapping both her legs around one of hers. Rei bucked and squirmed, groaning into the kiss, only serving to arouse the predatory thing. She nearly jumped out of her skin as it thrust its knee up against her, pushing into her hard with it. At least it broke the kiss then, allowing her to throw her head back and wail with sexual torment. To her surprise, the creature drew back very slightly, almost sympathetically. It drew its legs away from her and straddled her waist carefully, a knee on the ground at either side of her. For a long moment it sat up and merely stared at her with eyes that so much matched hers, save for a lack of life and light. The Rei-clone placed its fingertips slowly on her stomach, pushing them upward, tracing out the curvature of her breasts with long red-painted fingernails. It swept its hands back and forth in her cleavage, each hand stroking the incurve of the breast on that side, back and forth, slowly and gently. Rei could only lie transfixed as she blushed deep red. It leaned down over her again, closing in on her ear this time, hot breath winding though her ear's tunnel, "I didn't mean to hurt you, I'm sorry," it said sincerely, flicking its tongue along the lines of her ears, toying with the earring she kept there with playful innocence. Mars couldn't help but feel a bit sorry for the creature, but having it massage her breasts didn't hurt in bringing out her fading anger, "Alright, just get off of me, and we'll talk about this . . ." The creature then took her earlobe into its mouth, nibbling at it tauntingly. Its hands continued to brush her breasts, which were now growing warm to the touch. With nimble thumbs the clone tickled the points her hardening nipples formed in the cloth, prodding at them teasingly. She couldn't help but give a soft moan at the pampering she was receiving, but remained adamant. "If you're really sorry, get off!" she cried, a bit more distressed than she meant to, growing bashful and scared by the warmth continuing to grow inside her. In response, the creature dropped away from her ear . . . but only long enough to find her throat, breathing hot wisps of air across it, letting her lips brush the hollow of her throat ever so softly. Mars had to close her eyes and bite her lip to suppress another moan, catching it deep in her throat. "S . . st-stop it already! Cut that out!" she yelped, shifting under her clone, growing more uncomfortable by the minute as her arousal took shape, making her feel utterly ashamed of herself. The creature continued to arch its back forward, leaning down against her, its eager tongue flicking up and down her neck, as if getting a taste for her. It slowed down and circled the center of her throat, then let its full lips press against the tender skin, sucking on it slowly. Rei moaned aloud, too scared to move, but too angry to sit still. She couldn't find any rational way to hurt it, and so she was stuck under it, victim to its strange lusts . . . Her proxy continued to kiss and nibble down to her collar-bone, using its truly adept fingernails to whittle down and finally slice open the front of her fuku. It waited until its lips had caught up to its hands to pull it open, trailing kisses along her cleavage, offering teasing nibbles as it neared her areola, pulling her top away to fully reveal her ample chest. Rei found herself instinctively arching herself forward to the kisses, moaning low and soft. Her lovely face was drawn into a look of intense concentration, with a streak of red coloring her nose and cheeks. The clone responded favorably to her for this, nuzzling into her chest, circling her nipple with its tongue. A brief tease, and then it was there, lips over her perked nipple, sucking the whole thing into its mouth where its eager tongue massaged it. Rei had always wanted this, so much attention to her sensitive breasts, it was all becoming too much . . . The heat inside her was a fire now, growing and spreading over her body, making her hot all over. She couldn't stand it anymore, she thought to herself. She tucked her knees up to her under the creature, then shifted to wrap her legs around the clone's hips, pressing hers willfully against them. With an elegant sigh of pleasure, the fiend nipped at her nipple almost in reward, causing her to buck her hips against it slightly. As the clone pulled back from her nipple, it let its tongue linger against it, separating with a connecting skim of saliva as it moved back a bit. It cupped her breasts then, pushing them together firmly, nuzzling into the upthrust cleavage with a voracious appetite. The proxy lowered its hips onto hers and drew them back down, shifting them down her leg then back up, grinding into her, in long and fluid waves. Rei thrust herself against it artlessly, breathing out between ragged moans, "Please, the other one now, oh please . . ." With a Cheshire cat grin the monster slipped its tongue up and over her opposite breast, slithering the wet member around and around it, moving in tightening circles as she closed in on the nipple. With a satisfied groan it sank onto her harder and harder, pushing her down against the ground as it struggled to get friction between their pantied mounds, then being pushed up into the air itself as Rei did the same. Rei began to coo and whisper thankyou's as the creature sank its head against her breast, sucking and tugging at the exposed pink flesh of her nipple. She had always had an oversensitive chest, and it just felt so good. But with her life at the temple, she was away from anyone who could deliver gifts like this to her. Now that she felt the heat of a warm, wet tongue massaging her chest, she just wanted to lie back and let it last forever. The creature's insistent grinding on her hips didn't make relaxation possible, though. But she wasn't entirely sure she could complain about the tingling sensations their back-and-forth hip slamming was producing. It felt like electricity was shooting up her spine, starting with a shock at her crotch, every time they pounded together. Then when the slower, closer grinding came, she felt she would too- the warmth inside her was growing furious, as were her thrusts. The experience was growing pleasant, and her bucking was growing urgent. She held back though, restraining herself, wanting more attention before releasing . . . Her clone obliged gladly, nibbling her nipple hard enough to sting, but not hard enough to break the skin, making her shiver and whine in agonized pleasure. Its hands probed the parts of her breasts not consumed by its face eagerly, stroking and pinching from time to time, working her into a harder fury with carefully planned ministrations. The collisions of their hips were now hard thrusts with following squeezes as they forced themselves together, trying to push against one another's womanhood as much as possible. Rei's heels were digging firmly into the clone's backside, using the strength in her legs to jam her against her as hard as possible. Mars threw her legs spread-eagle and cried out, shivering and shaking as the sensations shot up and down her spinal column, tingling waves of heat flowing from her core through her entire body. Her muscles snapped taut and pushed her clone up off the ground as she tensed, gasping out her relief as the sudden deluge of her fluids ended the climax, dropping her back to the ground. The proxy seemed very pleased with it all, and began sliding down along her body, licking its way around her belly-button. Mars gasped, squinting to clear her foggy head, trying to find the strength in her drained body to push it away. "Alright . . . that's enough . . . get off!" she squealed. Her clone gave her an insidious grin, sliding its hand slowly up her thigh. Rei started to scream, but was cut off by a flash of white light. It stunned her momentarily, but the creature didn't fair as well. It hissed out at the air and began to stumble around, finally darting into a back alley, leaving her alone again. As her vision cleared she saw a man above her. He looked about six foot three, very tall for a Japanese, and was wearing what looked like a musician's getup. His hair was an offbeat color of blonde, combed down over his left eye, and when he gave her a movie-star smile as reassurance, she calmed considerably. He took her hand and helped her carefully to her feet. "Boy, the weirdoes all come out when the lights go down, huh?" he was saying as he pulled off his trenchcoat, wrapping it around her. She gratefully pulled it shut, hiding her embarrassment. He offered her a short boy and another flashing-white smile, "Everyone likes to call me Masamune, so that'll do just fine. What about you? I could swear I saw you on TV before . . ." Rei blushed slightly, growing steadily more comfortable, "No, you must be mistaken. I'm Hino Rei, and I owe you big time for saving me from that . . . uh . . . girl." "Hey, don't mention it," he responded, patting her on the back, "I'm glad I could help, Rei." With a nervous glance to the road, she sighed, "I really hate to just run off like this, but I'm really late. You can find me at the Shinto Temple just outside of the park, okay? Talk to you later!" She started to run off quickly, glancing back a few times to her savior. She couldn't help but feel that she'd seen him some place before . . . Usagi sighed again, staring at the pictures on the wall of Rei's room. There were pictures of American rock stars, like Heartbreak, Lenny Kravitz, and other familiar faces. She had posters of her favorite anime shows, like The Slayers and Neon Genesis Evangelion. She even had a picture of Mamoru on her dresser. It reminded Rei so much of her own room, and how her mother used to nag her about cleaning it . . . How could this have happened? In all the years she'd fought the Negaverse, they'd never discovered who she was but once. And that one time, it had been neatly covered up. They'd never known to attack her family, but that was the very first thing these new foes had done. And now her mother was stuck in some god-forsaken Negaverse base with those sickos . . . She found herself wishing she could master her fear, so that she could go out and face the monsters who had hurt her family. She wanted so much to attack them, and beat them all. She wanted revenge, but her fear was all too great. This time around she needed help. She needed Luna. The little black cat was working with her computer as she always was during senshi affairs. Routing messages through to one sailor or another, warning them about this or that. Since Mars's communicator had gone dead, she had been going nuts trying to get things back together. Luckily Rei was okay, for now. Usagi could swear she felt something in the air around the temple. Something calming and euphoric, like a heady drug. For a moment she became content with everything as it was, before memories of her mother snapped her back free of that state of mind . . . what was going on? Jade hovered just above the pair of defenders, invisible save for the force of his presence. The magiks he worked over him made it seem as if he were nothing but a shadow on the wall, far too insignificant to be noticed by the two busy sailors. He used his supernatural senses to carefully monitor the thought patterns and emotional levels of his prey, sampling the algorithms of their minds and carefully adding new steps into the patterns. It had been so long since he had manipulated a human's brain waves that it was becoming a slow process of trial and error, but he was getting there. The human already seemed to be growing faint, and the feline was losing interest in the communication relay. The last program was set. The sailors were ready to act as his subordinates, and how sweet the moment was. He began whispering arcane phrases, waves of undulating sonic energy- invisible to the sailors- emanating from his dry lips. As the sound waves washed over the two, their thought processes began to slowly match the controls he had set, adding ideas that weren't their own to the mix . . . The human slipped down onto the bed with a heavy sigh, looking thoroughly defeated. She let herself slip back onto the bed and grow comfortable, sighing contentedly. The cat turned to watch her with a sudden interest, stepping over a bit closer. The girl opened one eyes to look at the cat, giving it a subtle smile. "Hey Luna?" she asked. "Yes Usagi?" the cat returned, looking curious. "Luna, have you ever thought about . . . mmm . . . you know?" she answered, grinning. Luna tilted her head a bit, "Well Usagi, Artemis and I used to be human, of course I think about it." Usagi started running her hands up and down her body, accentuating the curves intentionally for Luna, who was now staring in rapt attention, "I meant, have you ever thought about it . . . with me." Luna allowed herself a look over the attractive young woman, nodding slowly as she jumped up onto the bed with her, "I most certainly have, I thought you knew that already . . ." Jade grinned to himself. The programming he had encrypted on these simpletons was working perfectly. With a little more practice he could force these weaklings to do anything he wished . . . but first he would need to test his limits. And it appeared that his test was going very well . . . The girl slipped her hands under her skirt and wiggled out of her panties teasingly slow, tossing them onto the cat's back, "Well then, what are you waiting for?" Usagi lifted her skirt and set her legs wide apart, displaying her lovely peach perfectly to Luna's eyes. The cat was practically salivating as it drew closer, staring at her crotch. Sailor Moon slipped a hand down to the apex of her thighs, using two fingers to spread her labia for the feline, and another one to prod her engorged clitoris, moaning sensuously. If Luna had any inhibitions, she dropped them right then as she sprinted forward, sliding between Usagi's legs. She began flicking her quick cat tongue out across the lips of her weeping cunt, sending Usagi into a set of shuddering spasms. The girl released her grip and started stroking the cat's head as it pressed its face harder against her womanhood, licking about her insides. Jade chuckled to himself, highly satisfied with the display. The human was moaning and cooing, urging the animal on. Not that she needed to, Luna appeared doubling willing. They were both absolutely under the thrall of his programming. Now he merely needed to see how long it would last. The human was thrusting her body back and forth now, rocking the bed under her. Beads of sweat formed on her brow, which was taut with concentration. She gave out a groaning scream as the cat's sandpaper tongue found her clit, licking it faster each time, sending her into immediate and violent multiple orgasms. Jade slipped into the red of the firelight just then, leaving the girl to gasp and heave her breasts up and down as the cat went wild on her . . . Ami was making excellent time on the Tokyo city streets, until her communicator went dead. She'd been trying for half an hour to fix it, while still covering as much territory as possible, when the things showed up. There were about five of them, demon-like dogs with teeth the size of a person's hand. They attacked her immediately, spitting out jets of acid and slamming the street apart with their power. She used her Aqua power to materialize a staff, using it to fend them off, then finally finished them all off with Ice Bubbles. It took a lot out of her, but she was convinced she had closed in on their headquarters now . . . "I must commend you, Sailor Mercury, on your dedication and skill," she heard from above, along with a slight applause and a deep chuckle. She stopped cold in her tracks, swinging her Aqua Staff back around to guard her rear in case of a surprise attack, "Who's there, show yourself!" she cried. A burst of red lit up the street in front of her, and in an instant one of the three warriors was there, the one they called Jade. He wore his ceremonial armor with pride, and had a derisive sneer to match, "Ask and ye shall receive, little one." Ami started to reach for her communicator, drawing a laugh from the fiend, "Oh please, do give me some credit. Your communications net is dead, and all your fellow senshi are . . . busy. All that's left is to take care of you, Mercury. I truly hoped you'd be more of a challenge." Mercury stepped back, swinging her staff back around to hold it in both hands, "I don't need any help to take care of you, Negasleeze! I hope you're ready to pay for what you've done!" Jade thrust a hand forward, and from it a green ball of energy flew forth. Ami spun her staff around and deflected the attack, knocking it off into the window of a nearby store. To her surprise the entire building soon burst apart in a huge explosion of green flame. With a cry she leapt straight forward, bringing her staff up over her head with both hands. As she came down on him she swung it in a hammer-style crushing blow. A blur of afterimages greeted her as Jade shadowed across the street from her, leaving the staff to smash a car clean in two. Ami yanked the weapon free of the vehicle, spinning to face him again. Jade lifted both arms and sent forth a jet of green fire from each. Mercury did a jumping side flip just in time to avoid the blasts as they melted the concrete into an acrid pool. Using her senshi Angel Jump she managed to bound another forty feet into the air, coming down on top of a streetlamp. "Enough games, Negaverse lackie!" she screamed as she drew back and hurled her staff like a javelin. The tip sunk right through Jade and she heard a loud clank as it buried itself in the pavement below . . . but to her surprise he moved off it effortlessly. She immediately recognized it as an illusory form, and without hesitation threw herself off the streetlight. She was lucky, just as she dove a whip of green energy slashed across the lamp, showering the area with sparks and glass. She spun midair to face the direction of the attack, only to find Jade had already moved again. She recovered her staff with caution, now leery of more tricks. Jade came at her in a flying charge, diving forward with incredible speed. Mercury brought her staff up diagonally in front of her for protection, managing to parry the sword attack straight into it. The force of the collision sent her skidding backward with him in two, her feet leaving long treads in the cement from the friction. As soon as she recovered herself she drew back and brought her staff around. He spun his sword to the side and deflected it, before thrusting at her chest. She used the length of her weapon to parry, then jutted forward at him. The two traded feints, parries and dodges for quite some time . . . She threw herself forward, charging her staff with Aqua energy. Where it connected to the sword sparks of blue hue flew into the air, and Jade went stumbling backward from the force. She brought her staff down on him again, and this time the impact forced him onto his back, as he was just barely able to block the blow. With her last thrust Jade apparently mimicked her attack, charging his sword with a green force to withstand the attack. The two weapons collided with the power of a train wreck, held together as electricity of green and blue flew through the air. The arcing waves of power flew out from their connection, blasting everything around them with magical force, and the focal energy where they met grew stronger and stronger, forming into a ball of sheer antipodes. The two opposites finally released the full extent of their power in a brilliant supernova that sent both combatants flying. Ami smashed back into a wall as the waves of released force swept over her, pulverizing her willpower until she lapsed into unconsciousness. The last thing Ami Mizuno saw before falling into a deep slumber was the laughing face of the monster she only knew as Jade, as he and his minions began dragging her to the steeple of darkness . . .
