In a tree near the wall, our two heroines are again watching the scene. Kei (blinking several times): What on earth is she talking about? Yuri: Oh Kei, you're so dense! It's perfectly obvious that the tribenzonitroboronaldethyde will... Kei (waving her arm at Yuri): OK! OK! I'm a dummy! But...Tsukino seems to know her pretty well...what did you say her name was again? Yuri: Mizuno. Ami Mizuno. Kei writes the name down, then nods to Yuri. Without a word, the two spring out of the tree and vault away. The camera follow them, then pans back to a young man, wearing thick swirl glasses. Boy (Umino): Hmmm.... A smile breaks out on his face... A few hours later. The scene is now a commercial district in the town, late afternoon. The camera pans across the scene, passing a few passerbys: a young girl with long purple hair talking animatedly to a boy with short red hair; a raven-haired, pale girl walking a few steps behind a boy with brown curly hair, carrying a bow; a group of three boys, one heavyset with a ponytail, one thin with a close-cropped haircut, the third dressed in black with curly hair. Finally it settles on the front of an arcade, with posters advertising the latest hot action fighting game. The camera closes in on the front door and fades to... Kei and Yuri have changed their uniforms for the standard uniform of the arcade. Kei is making change for the hordes of children, while Yuri patrols the games. Both of them are keeping an eye on the new game, where a tall girl with a brown ponytail, and a second girl with long blond hair and a red bow are trying to get the heroine, a girl with a long red pigtail wearing a ridiculously short sailor suit past a monster with long white beard and hair. Both Kei and Yuri look up sharply as Usagi, Naru, and Ami enter, and join the two other girls at the game. Yuri sidles unobtrusively up to the counter where Kei is standing. Yuri (whispering): Seems our source was right. Tsukino does know these two. Kei (whispering back): Okay. Did you get their names? A large drop of sweat appears on Yuri's face. Yuri: I...erk. Kei (whispering): You're hopeless! How the hell are we supposed to get their names without blowing our cover? Small Child: Hey lady, you wanna know those girls names? Kei and Yuri: ... Small Child (blistfully unaware of the looks he's getting): Yah, sure, I can tell you. The big girl is called Mako-chan, and the blond's name is Minako. Kei (recovering): Ah...thank you very much, little boy! But, didn't you mother ever tell you that it's not polite to eavesdrop? Small Child (thinking): I dunno...she does quite a bit of it herself. (Starts) Ah! I gotta go! Bye ladies! (The boy runs out the door, where he is greeted by a large white dog) C'mon Soichiro, let's go home! Yuri (recovering now): Well...that's it, isn't it? Our source said there were only 4 we should watch for. Kei (nodding): Okay then. We strike tonight. The two move towards the door, when suddenly a young man in an arcade uniform pops up in front of them. Young Man: Hey! Where do you two think you're going! Your shifts not over yet!! Kei and Yuri: H...Hai.... Darkness finally descends over Jyuban, releasing Kei and Yuri from their duties. The camera follows them as they practically run out of the arcade and into a back alley, where they shed their arcade uniforms for...their standard space bikinis. Kei is fuming. Kei: Why that lousy, stinking, underhanded, tight-fisted... Yuri (trying to sooth Kei): Oh c'mon, its not like we don't have our expense allowance. (She stops, and turns to face the camera, holding a gold card to face the screen) Courtesy of...Anime Express! Accepted in more that 15 dojo's, casinos, space stations, and apocolyptic nightmares worldwide! (Turns back to Kei) Now stop complaining and lets go! Kei (a little startled): Um...hai. (Muttering under her breath as they leave) A fine day when the Lovely Angels need sponsorship... As they Dirt (ow!) er...Lovely Angels rush out the alley, they reveal an elderly figure sitting at a card table, with a picture of a palm hanging from it. With a sigh, the old man slumps down a bit, resting his head on his hand. Scene: The Hino family Temple. A young girl with long, straight black hair is sitting before a flaming altar, meditating. A loud CRASH suddenly comes from outside the door. The young girl sighs, and picks herself up gracefully. Slowly, her face radiating calm and peace, she steps to the door, which she slowly, and almost soundlessly, slides open. Girl: USAGI-------!!!!! WHAT ARE YOU DOING UP HERE?!!!! YOU'VE INTERRUPTED MY MEDITATIONS!!!!! Usagi (picking herself up): EEEEE-------?!?!? WHAT DO YOU MEAN WHAT AM I DOING HERE?!?! WE AGREED TO MEET HERE TODAY, REMEMBER?!?!? While Usagi and the black-haired girl (Rei) argue, the rest of the group stands around looking extremely bored. Obviously they've heard all this before. Almost unnoticed a pair of cats slip away from underfoot. One cat is white, the other black; they both have a cresent moon mark on their foreheads. The black cat sighs. Black Cat: Artemis, you don't know how lucky you were to have only had Minako to deal with for so long. The white cat (Artemis) lays a paw on the black cat consolingly. Artemis: Don't take it so hard, Luna. You did good, considering what you had to work with. So put your chin up, dear, straighten your back, put out your chest, get out there, and win one for the Gipper! A big bead os sweat runs down Luna's face. Luna: E....hai. Artemis (unruffled): Good! Now...what did you make of those two new girls at the arcade today? Luna: They were definitely suspicious. I detected some strange energy from them. But... Artemis: But what?
