Sailor Pluto was chosen from the remaining lot and appeared before the robed figure. Her hands were bound behind her and her legs were restrained with dark energy. She was well aware of her surroundings and studied them intently. “You are different from your counterparts. You may be of some use to us. Your companions were far less cooperative and provided little useful information, however, their time spent with me was most enjoyable.”
“What did you do to them?” asked Pluto.
“What is it with this concern for others – all of you seem to possess this quality, fascinating. Your friends refused to cooperate with us so we had to persuade them. Our methods proved rather taxing on their constitutions, yet in due time, they will see the error of their ways.”
“What do you want from us?” Pluto’s voice was calm.
“Information – where do you come from? Why are you here? What is your purpose?”
“I am the guardian of time in our universe. There was a battle, a massive amount of energy was released then darkness. We found ourselves here. I am unfamiliar with anything in this realm, this must be another dimension. You must be our captor.”
“You are perceptive. I merely hold you and your entourage in these restraints because I desire knowledge of you and your species. I wish to know your strengths, weaknesses, physiology and psychological nuances. My kind has the ability to read the energy signatures of others and find the flaws in anything. You have few, yet those that are visible to us will be exploited if force is necessary.”
Pluto’s gaze left his and looked at the condition of Mars and Venus. Rei was bound by an unknown energy keeping her suspended in the air. Her black hair enveloped her as her breathing slowed. Mina’s unconscious form lie suspended within dark energy stocks. She was slumped forward her hair cascading around her. Her breathing was shallow. Neither of them appeared harmed by any method that left them horribly scarred, yet it appeared both of them had undergone an extensive interrogation session.
Pluto’s eyes bore into the hood of the robed figure. “I do not know what you have done too my friends nor do I know what you have in-store for me if I do not answer you questions, but I will tell you what I know to be the truth – whether you accept it, is another.” Pluto recounted their occurrences which matched the descriptions given by Rei and Mina.
"It matches your comrades' tale. Such cohesion to hide well made plans. No matter, have her join her friends. Bind her up. I'll make her talk."
