Going In Completely Blind

Date: August 9, 2009

As all of us stood on the battlefield, facing down the group of villains opposite us.

I picked this moment in time to speak up.

It was now time to put the first phase of our plan in motion.

But not before a thought went through my mind. "Well, Jadeite and Igneous, both have a lot to answer for. And while we're on the subject viewers, this, is what can happen with a villain, when you don't even trust each other enough, to even share vital information with each other...For I intend to make not just them pay, but the rest of the villains as well," I thought to myself, as I turned my attention briefly to the right of me to address the viewers, and then spoke up.

"Before we all start this, I would like to say a few things, to clear the air a little bit, Jadeite, Igneous, isn't their something that you would like to tell everyone?" I said, with a cocky smirk finding its way onto my face.

They both however looked slightly perplexed. But not for long, as Zachary then decided to speak up.

"I think what Bluebell here is trying to say is, Jadeite, why don't we start with you first. If I am not mistaken you know who some of us really are, don't you?" Zachary said, pretty much hinting back to when Jadeite had discovered Sailor Moon, Sailor Mercury, and Sailor Mar's identities during their fight at Haneda Airport several years back.

"And Igneous, you appear to know who some of us really are as well, isn't that correct?" I said, a blank look, with a hint of mistrust, present on my face, obviously referring back to when Igneous had accidentally discovered the identities of me, Wedding Peach, Angel Lily, and Angel Daisy.

It was at this point, that the perplexed looks on Jadeite's and Igneous' faces, were then replaced by looks of anger and rage.

"Well, I'd say that would be a yes...Talk about a magic trick…as we just made Jadeite and Igneous' looks of being perplexed disappear…Tada…they're…ah, they're gone…oh and by the way viewers…this joke…it wasn't cheap…the dc universe oughta know, they bought it...And while we're on the subject of this battle viewers...Who here, by a show in the comments section of this fanfic, has heard of a show by the name of Bar Rescue?...Well, I guess you could consider what was just done, as the first step, of the battle version, of what's known as a 'landmark fire.' Only rather then terminating a weak employee in order to send a message that you're not playing around anymore...We've all simply gone, and have used the villains...and their very lack of trust against them...It is sure to send a message to the other villains, that we aren't messing around when it comes to villains like them," I smugly thought to myself. And as I turned my eyesight to the right of me, to briefly address the viewers. And this was then followed up by my thought being interrupted by Keiko speaking up.

"Ah, so you do both remember, I'm honestly quite surprised you haven't told the rest of your comrades about it, you would think that sort of important information would've been shared among all of you?" Keiko sighed, which was followed by an eye roll from her.

"Jadeite, what are they talking about, would you care to explain yourself!?" Tigers eye said, with severe intent and anger.

"Iggy, you seemed to have been holding out on us, it is so not like you to do that...you know!?" Potamos said with severe anger, followed by her usual verbal tic.

"Well Misaka...Shokuhou, I think that's our queue, time to see if a forcefield, can stand up to 3 of Academy City's top seven level 5s," Keiko said, with a quick deadpan sideways glance to Shokohou, since she was still not too thrilled to be working with her.

And with a quick nod of approval from Misaka, they each pulled out several arcade coins from their respective skirt pockets, and placed one of those several arcade coins between their respective two fingers.

And once they both had channeled enough electricity, they fired, each of them producing their respective railguns. But, in order for this to work, they had to fire all of their coins in rapid succession. Not an easy thing to accomplish, when neither of them had done this before. I mean, after all, their best, from what I knew about Misaka from watching the first season of the anime, was 8 shots per minute. So, they would need to exceed that, as well as fire them in much closer succession. Not easy, but also not impossible. So, once they had fired the first of their coins, they then proceeded to fire several more in close succession. And when I say close succession, I mean that they wound up firing a combined total of 9 coins in the span of only 9 seconds. And each of them produced a railgun each. And while Misaka fired 5 railguns, Keiko fired 4. And each one was aimed at each of the 9 villains that we had all decided were the ones that had to go first. I mean after all, Jadeite, Nephrite, Zoisite, and Kunzite, were the most problematic. As all four of them could produce forcefields to block any magic or physical based attack. But, while that is in fact the case. Those forcefields of theirs aren't strong enough to stop something traveling at three times the speed of sound. And that, is why this plan had no chance of failing.

Anyway, before the three generals could raise their forcefields, or the devils could wind up defending themselves, they all suddenly put their hands to their heads.

"Thanks Shokuhou...I guess..." Keiko sighed, giving her a deadpan expression."Oh Keiko sweetie, don't tell me you didn't enjoy my performance," Misaki said, putting the remote to her face and smiling.

"No Shokuhou...you just annoy the heck out of me...Misaka for that matter too..." Keiko said, a blush, and a look of irritation now finding its way onto her face.

"Wait, did Keiko just do what I think she just did...no...there's no way that I would ever be a tsundere," I inwardly thought to myself with fear.

"Oh Keiko, you don't mean that, and I'm sure that Misaka doesn't either," Misaki said in her usual joyous tone.

"Oh you'd be surprised...Shokuhou..." Keiko said, her irritated expression and blush, not once having left her face.

But anyway, as Keiko looked forward again, despite her bad mood regarding Shokuhou, the instant before their multiple respective railguns made contact with the nine villains.

Jadeite, Nephrite, Zoisite, and Kunzite managed to raise their hands and produce their forcefields. But unfortunately, their railguns simply went through all four of their forcefields, shattering them to pieces. Like a baseball being thrown through a pane glass window.

And all 9 of them were then wiped out of existence.

"I guess it's not just true in the case of high cards, an ace will always be better then a king or a queen, even when you're not playing poker," Keiko smugly said, with a smirk now finding its way onto her face.

And this, was only the beginning, of what would be a two phase plan, that would show, that things, if done properly, can wind up going like clockwork.

Silence, that was what was present among all the villains, after having just witnessed 9 of their comrades just being completely wiped out of existence.

All except for Gensei Kihara, who at that moment had decided to speak up.

"That was a very excellent display of power, exactly what one would expect from three of Academy City's best level 5's. But tell me something Keiko, and you as well Railgun. How long do the three of you think you can keep that up?" Gensei said, an evil smirk finding its way onto his face.

"I don't know Gensei, why don't you tell us, I think you already know the answer to that question. I mean after all Gensei, as someone once said, kingdoms rise, and kingdoms fall, ask the Emperor of Japan. And let what just happened, be a warning to the rest of you villains, if any of you decide to try and defend another one of your own," Keiko said, a stern look with quite a bit of determination very much present on her face, since she was not at all amused, and didn't want any of the other villains to stand in any of Misaka, her, Shokohou's, or anyone else's way.

"Keiko's right...because sometimes viewers...it's not about the battle...it's about sending a message..." I smugly thought to myself, as I once again turned my eyesight briefly to the right of me, to briefly address the viewers.

And it was at this point that something inside me seemed to snap, and I then decided to speak up, now wanting to speak my mind regarding both Galaxia and Beryl.

Because she and Beryl had a lot to answer for, and I found it best to be the one to say it.

It was time to put that information that I had found on the newspaper clubs computer a couple of years ago to good use.

"Oh, and Galaxia, just so you know, now you know what it feels like to lose 9 people, doesn't feel good does it? Now you know how some of us felt when you literally took our lives away from us! Oh, and don't think that I didn't forget about the rest of you villains either. I know more about the rest of you villains and the damage that you've caused to the senshi over the years then you think I do! Tell me, do the words 'Beryl,' 'six murders,' and 'jealousy,' mean anything to any of you?! Beryl, you know full well what it is I am referring to. You should know, as you did kill them after all! Too bad that your tricks only work once. And quite justifiably, as you now have nothing, nothing to threaten us with, nothing to do with all of your strength!" I said, through very clear anger, and gritted teeth, while obviously hinting to when Galaxia had killed 9 of the sailor senshi in the fight in Juban years back, and clearly fed up with everything that she had done. And while also mentioning that when it came to the rest of the villains, other then Gensei, that their cards were marked. In fact, their cards had been marked long before they decided to come crawling back from the dead. And I did so, while channeling a demeanor, that would make even Heath Ledger's Joker proud.

And not surprisingly, my statement, was met with quite a few shocked expressions, not just from the senshi, but also from both Beryl and Galaxia.

Who knew full well what it was that I was referring too.

Which was followed up by a look of pure rage from both Beryl and Galaxia.

"Damn you, you'll..." Galaxia was midway through saying her threat, when I decided to cut her off.

"You, how dare you..." Beryl was also midway through her threat as well, when I decided to cut her off alongside Galaxia.

Given that she was responsible for killing 9 of the senshi, and Beryl was responsible for killing 6 of them as well, I wasn't going to let either of them finish their threats, they were going to listen to what I had to say.

You don't harm or kill my friends and don't expect to pay for it in some form or another.

"You'll what Galaxia...you'll make us pay?! Not while I still stand and breath you won't! Beryl, how dare I what...hold you responsible for the damage and grief that you have caused to my friends...how about how dare you?! You both need to take accountability for the people that you have both killed! As I think you already did that to several of us already didn't you?! You know Galaxia, right after you turned some of us against each other and then made us kill each other?! And Beryl, you are just as guilty regarding this! You should consider yourself immensely lucky Galaxia, on the fact that you don't possess a star seed...or things in that battle would've wound up ending a bit differently...And to think Galaxia, that you killed them just to further your evil goal of collecting star seeds!...Beryl, the same goes for you as well!...Because if I had been involved in things at the North Pole, I would've made completely sure that you payed dearly for each and every one of their deaths!...And I do think that you've both caused more then enough pain and suffering to the senshi to last several lifetimes! You want me to care Galaxia and Beryl, and show some sort of sympathy for villains like you, or any of you villains for that matter, and you decide to harm and kill my friends!? So no, I don't think that you'll wind up making any of us pay, or be daring anything out of any one of us! You both really do seem to think that you can just do whatever you damn well please, and think that the rules of engagement and battle don't apply to either of you! When to be honest, they do! You went and committedly murdered 9 of my friends Galaxia...And don't try and feign ignorance, as you know fully well which 9 I am referring too...and Beryl, you went and committedly murdered 6 as well! And don't try to deny it either! As you know fully well the 6 that I am referring too...So that makes you just as guilty as Galaxia! So now it is time to have you both pay dearly for having done just that! So let me just show you Galaxia, and you as well Beryl, as well as demonstrate to you, why all of you villains can't win against the likes of us, and never will!" I continued to say, and finished up with, through more anger, while hinting back to when Galaxia had turned Uranus and Neptune against the rest of the senshi and forced them to kill Saturn and Pluto. And also hinting back to when Beryl had killed the 5 inner senshi at the North Pole several years back.

But, any one of the villains who was dumb enough to protect one of their own, well that was their death wish.

And now, once the shock from my outburst had worn off, it was then time for the final phase.

Time for the rest of us to wipe everyone of the other villains off the board in one fell swoop.

It was the only possible way that this would not only end quickly, but it would also ensure that no one on our side would wind up getting unnecessarily hurt.

"Well, I guess it's time for the endgame then. So Peach, Lily, Daisy, Salvia, what do you say we show Raindevila, and the rest of the villains, that our bonds are stronger now then they have ever been?" I said, turning to Wedding Peach, and giving her a small smile.

"Bluebell, I think you already know the answer to that question," Wedding Peach said, returning her own smile to me.

"Yea, let's show them what were made of!" Angel Daisy said.

And in a split second, me, Wedding Peach, and the rest of the love angels, readied our respective weapons, and proceeded to launch our respective attacks.

"I guess that's our queue then, Sakura, Li, what do you say we show them what true friendship is?" Zachary said, turning his attention to Sakura and Li, a smile present on his face.

And a second later, after both of them had given him a nod of approval, he turned forward again, pulled a card out of his pocket, and proceeded to throw it forward in preparation.

And as for Madison, she had managed to go off in the nearby bushes, and had begun filming the entire fight ever since everyone had started their respective introductions.

I mean, that is Madison for you, wouldn't you want to film a fight between 3 of the best magical girl groups of all time, a group of very powerful Level 5 espers, all of which were going up against a rouges gallery of very powerful villains from their past? Well, from the senshi, me, and the love angels past. And given that Gensei Kihara, wasn't even in season 1 of the railgun anime. I deduced, that it probably, had something to do, with the timeline of the railgun anime, already going quite askew from the canon timeline. And yet I would never know, that things for both Mikoto and Keiko, as well as the rest of their friends, would only get worse as time went on in their respective timeline.

But then, another thought wound up popping into my head, and a very tragic one at that.

"I completely forgot about how Mako tragically lost her parents. I am still struggling to understand how she could be so okay about it. I mean, she was on the plane with them when it had crashed. And out of the five hundred and nine passengers and fifteen crew members that were on board that plane, she was only one of the only four passengers that had somehow managed to survive. And that was after thirty-two horrifying minutes. I am obviously going to have to talk to her about it at some point, only I don't know when. I just want to let her know, that she isn't the only one, that knows, about what had happened, to her and her parents. No wonder Makoto is so afraid to fly on an airplane...And viewers...in case you are wondering, I am of course talking about, the horrid but very preventable tragedy...of Japan Airlines Flight 123...I mean, you must've all realized that, right viewers?...I mean, considering that Makoto was 7 years old when she had lost her parents, and she was born back in 1978...I mean, the only aircraft accident, that had occurred in Japan, back in 1985, was Japan Airlines Flight 123...on August 12, 1985...and for those who are going to try and make a claim, that Japan Airlines Flight 350...was another plausible option...Let me just remind you all, that Makoto Kino, was born on December 5, 1978...now, for those who are going to go and look up the information regarding the incident of Japan Airlines Flight 350...I am just going to go ahead, and save you the trouble of doing so...Japan Airlines Flight 350, in which the date in which the incident in question happened on, was February 9, 1982...See, the point here viewers...is that Makoto Kino, would've only been four years old...And, for those who have read extensively into Makoto Kino's backstory like I have...You would realize, that she wound up losing her parents, at the age of seven...Which, all but confirms, that she wound up losing her parents on Japan Airlines Flight 123...I mean, the dates almost line up with each other exactly...But still, Japan Airlines Flight 123, was, and still very much is, the worst single aircraft accident, in the history of aviation...I mean after, all the 747SR (Short Range), that was involved in the accident, was carrying 509 passenger, 3 pilots, and 12 flight attendants...Yes, I am well aware that I mentioned the passenger and crew members numbers earlier on in this chapter...But that still doesn't mean that I can't mention them again," I thought to myself, while during this, I had wound up turning my head and eyesight, to the right of me, to address the viewers.

And I wasn't able to realize, that tears had now begun to fall down my face in streams.

And despite me now realizing this and best efforts to try and hide it.

I realized, that it was now far too late, to do anything about it.

Thankfully however, I managed to wipe the streams of tears from my face, before anyone managed to take notice.

And then, after steadying myself again, I readied my Saint Sword Of Bluebell, as the rest of us prepared to launch our attacks at the rest of the villains.

"Saint Grenade...Critical! Heart...Impact!"

"Saint Sword Of Bluebell...Devil...Purification~!"

"Saint...Spiral Whip!"

"Saint...Rolling Boomerang!"

"Saint...Twin Swords!"

"Moon...Gorgeous...Meditation~!"

"Mercury...Aqua...Rhapsody!

"Mars...Flame...Sniper!"

"Jupiter...Oak...Evolution!"

"Venus...Love And Beauty Shock!"

"Death...Reborn...Revolution!"

"World...Shaking!"

"Deep...Submerge!"

"Dead...Scream!"

"Thunder!"

"Element...Lightning...Descend!"

"On behalf of Academy City..." Keiko began.

"The aces of Tokiwadai cast upon you..." Misaka followed up by saying.

"Judgment!" They both put in for good measure in unison.

Which was followed up by Misaka and Keiko firing their respective railguns from their arcade coins, after they had said the last word of their sentence in unison.

And once all of the attacks hit the villains at varying intervals.

Those that needed to be purified, were purified, and as for the rest, well, they were wiped out of existence.

And Chaos was cast out of Galaxia's body for what would now be the third time.

And the next time it would return?

Well, that is something that even I don't know the answer to.

But I can guarantee you, that it won't be coming back in this millennium.

Or so we all thought.

A bit later on, in front of Tokiwadai Middle School.

After everyone had powered down, so as to not draw unwanted attention to themselves.

I figured, that now was a better time then any, to tell Makoto what was had been on my mind during the fight at the park a little bit ago.

"Mako, can I have a word with you for a moment?" I asked, while trying my best to hold back tears that were starting to well up in my eyes.

"Sure Shinko, what is it you want to talk to me about? Makoto replied.

It was then that I took a deep breath, knowing the backlash that would most likely ensue from what I was about to say.

I then took her in a tight embrace, as tears started to fall down my face in streams.

"I know, why you are afraid, to fly on an airplane. And just so you know...you aren't alone Mako, you have so many people that care about you, more then just those that are standing here right now," I said, through severe sadness and distraught in my voice.

It was then that something unexpected happened, that I didn't expect, Makoto took me in a tight embrace as well.

"Shinko, thank you, that means a lot," Makoto said.

This was something that I never thought would happen.

And experiencing it for real, pretty much made it feel that much more right.

And it was once the two of us finished our tight embrace.

That Meilin of all people decided to speak up.

"Okay, so is everyone ready to head back to their worlds?" She asked, clearly not getting what was currently going on at the current moment.

"Meilin, show some respect," Li said, turning to her and clearly not very amused with what she had just said.

It was at this point, that it was time for all of us to head back to our respective worlds.

But not before Usagi decided to speak up.

"Maybe sometime in the future, we can fight against each other...you know for fun?" she said.

"Uhh...sure?" Sakura said.

"But when we do," Momoko said.

"Lets just make sure that none of our worlds are on the line next time," Misaka said.

And it was at this point, that the four of them, along with Keiko, Zachary, and me, formed a circle, and put our hands into a pile, to signify our unbreakable bonds, as well as our everlasting friendships.

"Oh, I almost forgot, if you will all excuse me for a second."

"No problem at all Shinko, just don't get carried away."

"No trouble at all Shinko, just be discreet about it."

"Thank you Momoko, thank you Usagi."

"I would like to thank you, the viewers, for joining me, and all of my friends on this journey."

"Yes, you didn't think I forgot about you did I?"

"And I am pretty sure that everyone else that is here with me right now, hasn't forgotten about you all either. *winks*"

However, I wouldn't know until a bit of time later, that my adventure as a Love Angel, was only just beginning. And this wouldn't be the last time that I would find myself in Academy City. And our problems with Chaos, weren't exactly over either.

"Yea, sorry, Keiko here..." "Zachary here..." "Would you like to go first Keiko or should I? Because this is only the third time that I am doing this fourth wall break thing...*sweatdrop*" "I think that would be most wise Zachary. Anyway, though this is in fact not the end of the Going In Completely Blind part of the story. Both mine and Zachary's stories will still be continuing on." "So if you would like to read either of those, go and read A Certain Scientific Pair Of Railgun Aces chapter 1 for the perspective of my adventures with Misaka and our friends." "Or, you can go and read Going In Almost Completely Blind chapter 1, for the perspective of my adventures with Sakura, Li and the rest of the gang." "We hope to see you viewers there. *both smile and both wave while both saying the last line in unison*"
