Sailormoon Heretics
Part 13
One fell blow. The Death of Pax
By
Ifurita
Pax dodge the spear that the first Dragoon thrust at him, and brought
the butt of his shotgun down on the back of his neck.
"Pax, watch out!" yelled Saturn, as a Dragoon leveled his pulse rifle at
Pax.
Pax threw 4 driks at the Dragoon, one embedding it's self in the face
plate of the dragoon. The Dragoon screamed and clutched the front of his helm.
"Thanks for the warning." Pax back handed another Dragoon.
"You welcome." Saturn parried a Dragoon who came at her with a powersword.
Unnoticed by anyone, and small, winged eye sits in the rafters. This is
broadcasting live pictures of the fight back to the Black Cathedral.
"They are not using their full power." said Necrolite.
"True. Maybe they don't want to break the rules." said Dolomite.
"Possible." said Distant.
"Shouldn't Pax have detected the Paradox yet?" said Roganite.
"Maybe he's ignoring it. It wouldn't be that difficult." Distant said.
She looked critically at the fact Pax keeps bopping people with his Shotgun
instead of shooting it.
"Why doesn't he use his Gun? That thing will take out half the Dragoons
with one shot." said Dolomite.
"Conserving ammo?" said Roganite. She made an dismissing jester with her
hand.
"Silly, all inquisition weapons have unlimited ammunition." said Distant.
"Oh...." Roganite looked somewhat belittled.
Haruka parked her bike outside of the warehouse. She hopped off and peaked
though a broken window.
"Shimatta." she said as she watched Pax toss a Dragoon across the room.
"It looks like I'm going to be needed in there." Haruka pulled out her
transformation pen and became Sailor Uranus. "Here I come." she said, as she
snuck into the building.
Pax dodged another blast from a Dragoons rifle, and sent the dragoon
flying with a boot to the solarplexis.
"Pax! Help me!!!!" Pax looked over and saw Saturn in a dragoon's
choke-hold.
"I'll get you!" took a step towards her, but he was suddenly ensnared in
an energy net. "I can't move!".
"That's the idea." said the Dragoon. "Now, I think we'll have or way
with this little girl before we kill you." the Dragoon said, running his hand
along Saturn's cheek.
"Leave her alone! It's me you want!!!" Pax pleaded.
"Well, yes, but we have so little time for such petty endulgements..."
the Dragoon is cut off by Uranus's attack slamming into his chest.
"Uranus!" said Pax as she landed in front of him.
"Damn right." Uranus looked at the pair. "You guys need help or is this
some new thing between you two?"
"Just help us." said Saturn.
"Um, what about me?" asked the dragoon that is holding Saturn. "If I let
go of her, can I live?"
Uranus looked at the Dragoon, and the Space sword appeared in her hand.
"If you do...I'll only hurt you..."
"That's better than dying." the Dragoon let go, and 'ported away.
"THE SPACE SWORD!!!!" Distant Yelled, looking at the Image. "One of the
talismans!!!"
"The what?" Necrolite.
"One of the Talismans. They summon the Chalice!" Distant got an odd look
on her face.
"M'lady?" said Necrolite.
"Necrolite, be a dear and fetch that wench for me." Distant looked at
Necrolite, death in her eyes.
"Yes, M'lady. My Black Cardinals, come with me. Tonight, we take Pax out."
Everyone save Distant and Dolomite 'ported away in puffs of various
substances.
"Um, can you get me out of here?" asked Pax to Uranus.
Uranus raised the Space sword and slashed it down, cutting the Energy net
away, freeing Pax.
"Thanks." Pax said, and Saturn rushed over and threw her arms around him.
"Uranus, thanks for saving us. We owe you one." said Saturn.
"Don't mention it."
"Isn't that sweet, To bad we have to break this up." said Roganite,
appearing in the air above them.
"Ah! Roganite!" said Pax.
"It's nice that you remember me, we haven't seen each other since...oh...
I don't know when." Roganite smiled.
"I see you've still got that black and skull smock."
"I do."
Golomite appeared in the air next to Roganite. "Will you hurry up?"
Golomite raised his hand, his skin creaking. A ball of black energy shot
forth, Striking Uranus and Saturn.
"Golomite!" Pax Yelled, and a ornate saber appeared in his hand.
"Save your strength. I'm not worth it." said Golomite, looking worriedly
at the saber.
As if on cue, a Door, that looks an awful lot like the Time Gate, appears
in the air, and steps roll down. The Doors open into a maelstrom of chaos.
"You always had a way with entrances." Pax said under his breath.
Necrolite steps out of the Door, His papal robes sway as he walked down
the steps. He looks at Pax, and the angry purple scar throbs in memory of
a previous encounter.
"Amoncara Pax, so nice to see you again." Necrolite said, dripping in
hatred.
"You two." Pax shifted his feet suttlely into a fighting stance.
"I hope I never have to see you again!" Suddenly, Necrolite leaps at Pax,
Lashing out with a broadsword sheathed in shadows. Pax Raised his Saber and
blocked it, but the force of the strike made him step back.
"Pax!" said Uranus. She took a Step towards the fight, but Golomite
appeared.
"Now now, we can't have you interfere with this." A slab of wood appears
behind Uranus, and lashes of energy spring forth, pinning her to the slab.
A similar thing had happened to Saturn, with Roganite standing before her.
She absently toyed with a bulb in her hand.
"Ohohohohohoho! You must be the mistress of Silence we heard about."
Roganite said to Saturn.
"Let me go!" Saturn said.
"I don't think so."
"It's been, to long." said Necrolite, slashing down from overhead at Pax.
"Hurry up and die." Pax Said. He effortlessly blocked.
Both Necrolite and Pax's robes were shredded. They bleed from umpteen
wounds. Necrolite's headdress was gone, but Pax's helm is still on.
The slash and Parry, hack and dodge, back and forth neither one giving
up an inch. They were still fighting in the same place as they began to fight
in.
"This is getting pointless you know." said Pax.
"We're both evenly matched." said Necrolite.
They both stopped and looked at each other. Without warning, Dolomite
appeared behind Pax, and plunged a Rapier into Pax's side.
"Arrrrgh!" said Pax, wrapping his hand around it's point that Protrudes
from his side.
"DOLOMITE! That was not Honorable!" yelled Necrolite.
"It was The Emperor's orders." Dolomite said.
"How dare he!" Necrolite says.
"You shouldn't waste this chance to eliminate him." Dolomite said, he
was suddenly struck all at once by Dead Scream, Deep Submerging, Love-Me
Chain, Burning Mandala and the other Sailors Attacks. He was tossed a good
fifty feet into the wall. He sat up and shook his head and 'ported away.
"I knew something was going wrong." said Pluto. She and the Rest stood
on the catwalk.
"Pax, I enjoyed our rivalry, but, now, it shall end!" Necrolite Brings
his sword down onto the top of Pax's helm. As it struck, the helm cracked
along the top and began to dissolve in little flakes. "Die Pax, or should
I call you...Jinnai Hikaru." Necrolite grinned.
"Hikaru???" said Moon, nearly falling off the catwalk in shock.
"Pax is Hikaru?!" echoed though the girls.
"I knew that." said Pluto under her breath.
Pax tried to stand up, but Necrolite kicked his hard in the face.
"Stay down." Necrolite said, as Pax sunk to his knees.
"How can you do this! You said this wasn't honorable!" said Uranus,
struggling against her bonds.
"It isn't, but, that's the nature of Chaos. It's fickle, can change
without notice. I think I'll take this chance to eliminate his for good."
Necrolite smiled and slapped Pax across the face with the flat of his blade.
"NO!" Moon yelled, as she leapt from the catwalk, towards Necrolite.
"Moon Crisis make...up!" she yelled and became Super Sailormoon.
She never got to Necrolite. She stopped in mid air, slamming into and
invisible shield. It crackled with black energy as she struggled with it.
"I can't have anyone interfering with me." Necrolite turned back to Pax,
who had gotten back to his feet.
"If you strike me down, I will not die, I will come back, come back more
powerful than you can Imagine." said Pax, spiting out blood.
"I think not." Necrolite slashed at Pax's neck.
It connected.
An Explosion of light and heat came from where Pax had stood, washing over
everyone. It sent Necrolite and the 2 black Cardinals flying into the wall.
"PAX!!!!!! NO!!!!" Saturn Screamed. breaking from her Bonds. She Began
to glow, and her Fuku became Ribbons that barely covered her. The others found
them selves in the same Situation.
"Do not fret, I will always be with you." said Pax's voice, from the
light. "Take my energy and Strike back for me.".
"I can feel it....a phrase...it forms in my mind." said Uranus. She
brought forth the Space sword. "Space Sword Blaster!" She yelled, slashing
Violently at Necrolite, sending energy towards him. Each blast slams into
Necrolite, sending him though the wall. "That did it." she said, smugly.
The Light began to dissipate, and the Ribbon reformed back into fuku's, but
now in the Super Sailor Fukus.
Saturn stumbled over to place where Pax had last stood. The only things
that Remained were his Robes, and armor. She bent down and picked up on of his
gauntlets, and held it close to her. "Hikaru..." she wept.
The rest of the sailors came over, and surrounded her. Pluto knelt next
to Saturn, and looked in her eyes. "Hotaru-chan..." she said softly. Saturn
looked at Setsuna. She suddenly threw her arms around Pluto and cried into
her breast. Pluto hugged her back.
The others could only cry with them, and offer soft words.
"Excellent. Pax is out of the picture." said a Evil looking man, with
a crown of black metal on his head. He sat in a dank massive hall, flanked
by men in Dark blue and black uniforms. Distant stood next to him.
"That is true, my brother, my emperor." said Distant.
*EnD*
Ano...sad? No? Well, now, that's not the end of Pax...no way...heh...see
you next time!
