Chapter 88: Being Mentally Out There!: Having An Exteriority Complex! (Part 4)

"Hello there viewers...Angel Bluebell here...*I say this while smiling with both eyes closed*...So then, lets proceed into the fourth part, of this portion, of the crossover arc...but first, a recap of the previous chapters, are in order!"

And, here is the recap of the previous chapters in question...

Date: September 20, 2009

"Ah Limone, right on time like always," I said, while giving my current small smile.

However...

"Okay Bluebell, though I would love to listen, to more of your thrilling commentary. But we are all sort of in a situation at the current moment," I heard the unmistakable voice of Keiko, then suddenly speak up, all while she was giving me an expression, to pretty much let me know, that now was not the most ideal moment, to be doing something like this.

And this, was no exception, in fact...

"Bluebell, lookout!" I then heard the all too familiar voice, of one Touma Kamijou then ring out.

And, upon the still unstable, and bright white glowing Misaka, then firing off yet another high electrical attack, in my general direction. I then, with my quick reflexes, and unlike last time, managed to raise my Saint Sword Of Bluebell, into a two handed, and deflecting like stance.

However, even though the high electrical attack, managed to hit my Saint Sword Of Bluebell, and was successfully deflected. The high electrical attack, was still managing, to shove my whole body backwards. And this was even though, my light blue high heel clad feet, were as rock solid with the ground, as they had been. But despite this being the case, I was still being shoved backwards, as my light blue high heels, were leaving drag marks, as I was being shoved backwards.

"Well, good thing for my superhuman reflexes...And yet, Misaka's high electrical attack, still managed to shove me backwards a good amount," I thought to myself, through some slight frustration, and gritted teeth. As not even a second later, the currently being deflected attack against my Saint Sword Of Bluebell, ceased. And as a result, I was now fully planted again.

"Sis, are you alright?" I then heard the voice of Wedding Peach call out to me with concern.

"Yes sis, I am fine, a slight bit strained, but otherwise fine," I said to Wedding Peach in response. While afterwards, this was followed, by me giving a slightly audible grunt. Which was followed about a second later, by me turning to her, and then giving a knowing smile, with both of my eyes closed. In order to let her know, that I was fine.

"Okay, all of us really need to come up with a strategy here, and do it fast...Because given Misaka's currently unstable state...and what I already know about Gensei Kihara...I would say, that we don't have long, before Academy City, is wiped off of the map, and along with everyone in it, including all of us," I thought to myself.

And it was then, after I had had this thought, that I then decided, that now was as good a time as any, to let one Mr. Rotten Luck himself, in on my plan. Because as fate would have it, Touma Kamijou, was another key piece, in all of us putting an end, to the endless fighting, as well as the deaths, that had resulted from those like Galaxia and Beryl.

And so, with this thought, and commitment, now very fresh on my mind. I then turned my attention towards one Touma Kamijou, and then decided to speak up, in an effort to fill him in on my plan.

"Oi, Touma? Your Imagine Breaker? You tried it on Misaka not too long before we got here, and it didn't work on her when you tried it, correct?" I called out to Touma, which was quickly followed, by a somewhat shocked looking expression from Touma.

"How do you know that? You know..." Touma was saying, until Keiko decided to cut him off mid-statement.

"Look Touma, just try humoring Bluebell for a second would you? Because the more that we just stand here and do nothing..." Keiko said, in an effort to get Touma to understand the currently dire, and very dangerous situation, that we were all currently in.

Which was all but confirmed, about a second later, by the still currently unstable, and white glowing Misaka, then proceeding to change into another form, so to speak. Which, not surprisingly, caused Touma, to pretty much get the message, without Keiko having to finish her statement to him.

"Fine, but if this doesn't work, then..." Touma began to say, only for someone else to chime in.

"Look...Touma was it? How about you just save the idle threats, and just agree to the plan already?!" Angel Salvia then chimed in, as she was now getting pretty fed up, with Touma's semi-defiant like tone and demeanor.

"Well said Salvia, and you have my thanks. Now then Touma, how about you do as Keiko, and Salvia just asked of you? Because judging from how things are quickly spinning out of control, I would say that we currently have, about maybe a minute at most, before Academy City, is wiped off the map," I said to Touma, as while I was talking to him, I had drawn my Saint Sword Of Bluebell, back towards, and then over, my right armor clad shoulder.

And after I had done this, I then turned my attention to Wedding Peach. "So sis, what do you say, that we do our do-diligence, and save Academy City?" I said, while I had turned to her, and had given her a knowing smile.

"Gladly sis," Wedding Peach responded back, as she then proceeded, to pull out her Saint Miroir. And, once I had filled Touma in on the rest of my plan, we then set said plan in motion.

And, with Touma, now proceeding to get into a battle type stance. Me and Wedding Peach, then proceeded to launch our respective purification attacks, just as Touma, had started to take off running, toward the currently still unstable, and still white glowing Misaka.

"Saint Miroir...Bridal Flash!" Wedding Peach said, as she then did a full spin, and once the heart on her Saint Miroir glowed its familiar red color, she then launched her attack from her Saint Miroir towards the currently unstable, and white glowing Misaka.

"Saint Sword Of Bluebell...Devil...Purification~!" I said. And once the blade of my sword started glowing its familiar light blue color. I then swung it, in a left horizontal swing in front of me, as I fired my attack from the swords blade, and also, towards the currently unstable, and white glowing Misaka.

And with Touma, just managing to get to Misaka, managing to front forward flip over her right shoulder, and was thus able, to use his Imagine Breaker in his right hand, to provide a semi opening through the protective like barrier on that shoulder.

And once both of our respective purification attacks had hit the still unstable and white glowing right shoulder in question, at exactly the same time, the resulting force of both of our respective purification attacks, in combination with Touma's Imagine Breaker, caused Misaka, to return to normal. And, it was only then, that everyone else but me had realized, that what had just happened, truly was what was going to go down, as the most elaborate, but simple plan, in anime history.

But there was still the issue, of one Gensei Kihara. However, I had already planned, for a way for all of us to get there in a reasonable amount of time.

And so, with that in mind, despite a somewhat big amount of coaxing, to everyone else that wasn't in on my plan. We then, with the aura and power of the Through Card, now coursing through all of us, except for Touma, for obvious reasons. And Sogiita, because he decided to go off and do something else, for reasons known only to him. We then, with using the power of the Through Card, managed to get to the aforementioned lab, in no time at all.

And, just to make things all the more convenient, and as we all currently stood inside one of the walls on the side of the hallway, where everyone else currently was...

"Well, given all you villains, and your less then pleased demeanor. As well as all of your not very pleased expressions. I would say that you really weren't all expecting, all of us to know what was truly going on, did you? Well, that is quite typical, as I think Angel Bluebell herself had said to all of you not long ago. That she knew more about all of you villains, then you thought that she did. And more to the point, she wasn't the only one, that knew about any of this. And speaking of those like Angel Bluebell, I would say that right about now..." I suddenly heard Zachary say.

And of course, just to make things all just a little more dramatic, and to give us all a proper entrance, so to speak. I decided to speak up. "Sorry we're late everyone, we sort of got hung up with something," I said, as my voice rang out through the hallway.

And upon all of us then walking out from within the wall. Zachary once again decided to speak up. "Ah Angel Bluebell, right on time, I see that you managed to carry out your part of things. Keiko, Misaka, it is so nice to see you both as well," Zachary said, while he, about a second later, had turned his attention back towards the group of villains, who not surprisingly, all now had looks of shock, and total disbelief present on their faces.

"Oh right, where are my manners. Gensei, you didn't really honestly think..." Zachary began, only to have somebody else interrupt him instead. Well more like two somebodies...

"Hey Zachary, they get the point! Now how about we move on from your rambling statement finally?!" Me and Keiko, then chimed in, nearly in unison, as a way to let Zachary know, that the villains had pretty much gotten the message.

"Oh r-right, now then Gensei, what do you say that we finally settle things, between the likes of us, and those like you?" Zachary said, with a now much more telling smirk present, on one side of his face.

And now, with the recap of chapter 83 now done. We now move on to the current chapter...

And given the current situation, it looked as though, my plan, was foolproof. And, given what was about to happen, would wind up more then proving that fact.

"So Gensei, did you really honestly think, that this so called plan of yours was going to work? I mean, do you even know who..." I began to say to Gensei, and the rest of the villains on his side.

Only thing was...

"Bluebell, behind you!" I heard the voice of Sakura then suddenly speak up with saying.

Which was swiftly followed, by the voices of her and Zachary, then proceeding, to use one of the Star Cards in their possession, to deflect the oncoming attack, that had launched towards us from behind.

"Shield!" Zachary and Sakura both said in unison, as they raised both of their star staffs towards the currently spinning Shield Card above them both.

And, a split second after that, the familiar spirit of the Shield Card wound up appearing, in the form of a shield, to protect everyone on our side.

And, before I could speak up, Keiko wound up beating me to it.

"Ah Galaxia, I see that you are still trying underhanded tactics such as this. But like Bluebell said to you herself not too long ago. Your tricks, only work once. Isn't that right Bluebell?" The voice of Keiko then wound up chiming in with saying.

And, without even having to turn to face Galaxia, I then chose to speak up.

"I mean honestly, surely you must've realized that fact by now Galaxia, or is your arrogance, really just that bad?" I said, with an all telling looking smirk, currently present across my face.

"Damn you...how...!" Galaxia started to say, only for me to once again, like last time, cut her threat off mid sentence.

"No Galaxia, how what...dare I?! How about how dare you?! That was what you were about to threaten me with saying, right? You just don't get it, none of you villains do! Because the last time that I checked, this isn't the Thermopylae Pass! You can't just try and do to us, what the Persians did to Leonidas!" I said. While I wound up referencing, not just the movie 300, but two of the episodes, of Spike Tv's Deadliest Warrior. Which was 'Spartan Vs. Ninja,' and 'Spartan Vs. Samurai, in Back For Blood,' respectively.

And, now having given my statement, I then proceeded, to speak up again.

"Now then, Shokuhou...Exterior...it hasn't been destroyed yet has it?...Oh and Gensei...that was your plan to try and wipe Academy City off the map right? You were trying, to force Misaka, into becoming a Level 6? I mean, it was a nice plan and all. But, you failed to realize something..."

"Look Bluebell, can you please just stop rambling, and just get to the point already?!...The viewers have probably stopped reading by this point, and it would be thanks in a very large part, to your current ramblings!...*Zachary winds up saying this to me, with a less then pleased sounding tone in his voice. While he and Sakura, were currently facing in the opposite direction, while still holding Galaxia off, with the use of the Shield Card*"

"I'm sorry Zachary, but whose elaborate but simple plan is this?! And are you, or are you not...*I proceed to say this with a tickmark, now slowly becoming present, on one side of my face*"

"Okay, both of you, can it!...You are both starting to give me a massive headache!...*Keiko says this to both me and Zachary, with a very not pleased sounding tone in her voice*"

Okay, so as it currently stood, Keiko, Misaka, and the rest of the Four Aces, seemed to have things under control. But, as it currently stood, Kuroko was currently occupied, with having to deal with Mitori, and her Liquid Shadow Esper ability.

"Hey viewers...Keiko here again...so, to basically explain in quick detail what Liquid Shadow is...Think the plasma type robots from the 'Morphing Is Sooo 1987' episode, of Totally Spies...or, the plasma type villain from one of the original Terminator movies...Now then viewers...back to the chapter."

And, as the situation currently stood, Sakura and Zachary, were still doing a great job in using the Shield Card, to ward off any sort of sneak attack from Galaxia. And as for me? Well, I had a very strange idea, on how to use Exterior, to have us all gain a severely unfair advantage against Gensei Kihara and the rest of the villains on his side.

Well, it would wind up giving Misaki Shokuhou, the unfair advantage. Who by the way, was still quite a bit perplexed, as to what was currently going on. Even though, she had worked with Keiko and Misaka, back on August 9, when we last went against the rogues gallery.

"Oi, Keiko!" I wound up saying to Keiko quite suddenly. "Yes Bluebell, what is it?" Keiko asked me in response. "Do us all a favor, and stop monologuing...you're not Syndrome from The Incredibles the last time that I checked," I wound up saying to Keiko, in a sort of less then pleased tone.

But, the reason that I had done it in this manner, was to try and get Keiko back on track, while at the same time, sounding as witty as I usually did, in situations such as this one.

Okay, so as it currently stood, Keiko had just been snapped out of her monologuing stupor, by me. And, as it seemed, my plan, was not only foolproof. But would surely go down, as the most elaborate, but simple plan, in anime history.

However, with all plans, there will always be, one or two problems, that one wouldn't be able to account for. And in the case of my plan, this time, was going to be no exception.

And this was confirmed, when out of the blue, Queen Nehelennia. Who had revealed herself out of the dark end of the hallway that we were all in. Suddenly decided to go on the offensive. And she had done so, in a way, that only the Sailor Senshi, had been expecting.

"Enough talk...all of you! It's time for you all to die!" Queen Nehelenia said, as seemingly out of the blue, she had teleported temporarily out of existence, and had appeared behind behind me. And before I could even react, or turn to face Nehelenia. Queen Nehelenia used her own hair, to tightly tie me up within it. And to make things that much worse, this now meant, that Wedding Peach's usual purification attacks, now had no effect, on the current situation, since Angel Bluebell, was currently out of action at the current moment.

And for the record, the restraints across my body, including one around my neck, were causing me, quite a bit of discomfort. In fact, if something wasn't done quickly, then I was going to wind up choking to death.

And as for Keiko's overall reaction to this current development? Well...

"Damn you! How dare you! You villains never learn! And you decided to do that to her, while she was focused on telling me something?! Nehelenia, you're going to live to regret having done this to Bluebell, I promise you!" I suddenly heard Keiko say, through clear apparent anger, and visibly gritted teeth, as electricity, had now started to dangerously crackle, through the bangs of her hair.

And as she turned her attention to Misaka, she then decided to speak up again. "Well Misaka, it would seem, that we currently have a very bad problem on our hands! So then Misaka, with that being said, what do you say, that we go and help our friend?!" Keiko then said to Misaka, while the electricity, still continued to violently crackle, through the bangs of her long light blue hair.

"Keiko, I would be more then happy to!" Misaka wound up saying back to Keiko in response, as not even a second later, electricity had now started, to violently crackle, through the bangs of her hair as well.

"Now then Misaka, let's show the rogues gallery, the true power, of The Aces Of Tokiwadai then, shall we?!" I then heard Keiko say, as with an all to telling smirk, was currently very much present, on her face.

"Alright Galaxia, so you want a war?! Well, now you've got one! But know this...you're going to regret ever having come after us once this is all over with! And maybe this time, when we do wind up knocking you all back down, then maybe this time you'll all stay down! Now then, shall we begin!?" Keiko then said, while referencing a line that had been said by Seto Kaiba, when he had dueled against Zigfried Von Shroeder, in the three episode part duel, "One Step Ahead."

Okay, so the current situation regarding me currently being tightly restrained, it really made our current situation quite dire.

But, even though, I hadn't taken this sort of situation into account when I made up my elaborate but simple plan. The good news here, was that something was about to happen, that would help to take care of that.

And it was then, that I suddenly heard, an all whooshing popping like sound. Which even though I had trouble seeing, due to my current dwindling loss of oxygen from restriction to my windpipe.

Anyway, this was then followed, by the sudden appearance, of a certain twin pigtailed Level 4 Esper Teleporter. And, as she had teleported just behind Queen Nehelenia, Keiko then couldn't help, but give off a small sort of smile. And then, since Keiko now knew that Queen Nehelenia wouldn't be able to react in time. Keiko, then decided to speak up.

"Ah Kuroko, nice to have you back. Now then, we seem to be in a pretty dire situation at the moment. So Kuroko..." Keiko began to say to Kuroko, only for Misaka, to sort of cut her off mid sentence.

"Keiko, don't be so long winded with your statements! Kuroko, we need your help!" Misaka suddenly interjected with, as she had in fact just cut her off, mid sentence.

But, not surprisingly, Kuroko quickly sprang into action. As she wound up using several of her pin darts, to completely tear through the hair like binds, that currently bound me. And, upon the hair like binds basically disintegrating. I, then leapt back to being beside Wedding Peach, now being very grateful for what had just happened.

And, with Queen Nehelenia now without a sort of human shield to defend herself. Keiko and Misaka, then decided to take the initiative.

"So, Queen Nehelenia, I would say, that this...is checkmate!" I heard Keiko say with a currently very telling smirk on her face. As while Keiko had said this, her and Misaka, had pulled an arcade coin out of their respective skirt pockets. And after quickly flipping them into the air. And just as they rested between their usual two fingers. They fired, each of them producing their respective railguns. And more importantly, it wiped Queen Nehelenia out of existence. Since she wasn't able to see their railguns fast enough to react in time.

"Okay so that is one down!...Now then, which of you villains want to be next?!" Misaka then suddenly said, with a smirk on her face, to match Keiko's own.

But, though neither of them could see my current expression at the moment. I currently had a face of relief. But more importantly, I was also very grateful, that both Keiko and Misaka, had been able, to get me, out of any sort of serious injury, or even death.

And it was then that I knew, that when it came to The Four Aces Alliance. There was something that we had, that the villains rogues gallery would never have. It was the willingness of all of us, to be able to trust each other, and work together. And it was this advantage, that would wind up insuring, that we would win this final battle. Well mind you, this would wind up being a bit more of a dragged out fight then what went on back on August 9. But like back then, it would wind up becoming, quite the stunning show.

Which had then been followed, by me doing my usual end of chapter fourth wall break.

And now, with the recap of the previous chapters now done, we will now head, into the fourth part, of this portion, of the crossover episode.

Date: September 20, 2009

Okay, so I had just been successfully rescued, from nearly being possibly injured, or even killed by Queen Nehelennia. And thanks to Keiko and Misaka, Queen Nehelennia, had been wiped out of existence for what was now going to be the last time.

But, though nobody knew the reason at to why this was the case yet. It actually had to do, with a certain unique magical spell, that both Zachary and Sakura had said, way back, just before the events on August 9th, had started. And, it was while the both of them, had been talking, to a certain Sailor Guardian, of time and space.

"Hey viewers...Keiko here again...so just to give you all a bit more insight into what exactly that means...go and read chapter 76 of Going In Almost Completely Blind...'A Polite Invitation'...and then you will see viewers, exactly what led us all, into being able to win not just this battle...but the previous one back on August 9 as well...I mean after all viewers...she did in fact say, to the Cardcaptor version of myself, that 'it would be fine'...*Keiko proceeds to say this, while smiling a bit more visibly*...which for the record viewers, happens to be what is known, as her 'invincibility spell'...I mean after all viewers...it helped her and Zachary, to win the Final Judgment back in their respective timeline...Now then viewers...back to the story at hand...*Keiko proceeds to say this, while smiling with both eyes closed, and her head, tilted to one side, in a cute manner*"

And, as Keiko and Misaka, stood poised to take on the next villain, who was dumb enough to try and attack us again. Thankfully, due to the growing arrogance, and anger, of a certain villain on that side, we wouldn't have to wait that much longer. In fact...

"Damn you both! I'll kill you both for that!" Jadeite then suddenly decided to speak up with saying.

And, as Jadeite decided, to try and attack Keiko and Misaka, with him firing off several lightning bolts of his own. Keiko and Misaka, had more then enough time, to react to Jadeite's arrogant induced response.

And, as I turned my attention briefly, to Angel Daisy, and simply just gave her a nod. Angel Daisy, then proceeded to step in, in order to make entirely sure, that both Keiko and Misaka, had enough protection, so that Jadeite, wouldn't be able, to try anything untoward.

And, as Angel Daisy then leapt forward, and then stood in front of Keiko and Misaka. And then, by raising one of her arms, managed to conjure up a barrier, in order to neutralize Jadeite's lightning. Which hit the barrier, and caused it to completely disintegrate. It was then that Keiko knew, that whatever the rest of the rogues gallery had planned, wouldn't work.

In fact, what was about to happen, would cause it to backfire on all of them, quite spectacularly I might add.

"Hello viewers...Keiko here again...Now you see that?...That viewers...is what makes our alliance so unique...But viewers...I would say, that this is now as good a place as any, to put a stop to this chapter...Don't worry viewers...as like last time, we will be getting right back into the action, in the next chapter...okay?...*Keiko says this, while smiling with both eyes closed, and her head, tilted to one side, in a cute manner*"
