Dioptasio charged his hands with his powers and a sphere of energy began to form.
"Now you'll die!" he laughed.
"Not yet!" yelled a voice from the alley's entrance.
Sarcolite and Dioptasio turned in surprise; all the Sailor Senshi, the other witches and Silver, Rodoc and Tuxedo Kamen were standing in front of them and seemed ready to fight.
"Standing for love and justice, we are the Sailor Senshi!" said Usagi "We won't let you kill three innocent witches. I'm Sailor Moon and I'll punish you in name of the Moon!"
"Yes!" added Viluy "Set our sisters free immediately or you will die!"
Sarcolite and Dioptasio laughed again: "And so you're thinking you can defeat us! Poor dreamers! We're Doom's Warriors, nobody can defeat us!"
Rodocrosite attacked them: "You're forgetting I'm a Doom's Warrior too! STARDOOM ATTACK!"
A black rotating big star appeared from Rodoc's hands and moved toward Sarcolite and Dioptasio.
The two brothers didn't move during Rodoc attack, then, when the star was about to hit them, they rose their hands and the star was diverted toward the girls. They tried to jump away, but Mimet, Sailor Mars and Sailor Venus were hit and fell to the ground, unconscious.
Meanwhile Chibiusa and Eu-chan were near the entrance of the back alley and they were hiding behind some empty crates.
"We aren't supposed to be here..." said Chibiusa "...but we couldn't stay at home while our friends are in danger!"
"Chibiusa, I'm worried. What if the girls will be defeated?"
"No! Don't say such things! They'll win! I trust Sailor Moon!"
The two wounded sailors raised themselves up and joined their friends again.
Pikuroll and Emmy joined the battle too. Tellu said to the Senshi: "While we fight them, get ready for your Planetary Attack!"
All the witches jumped towards their brothers and attacked all in a once.
Meanwhile the Sailor Senshi formed a circle and used together their powers: "SAILOR PLANETARY..."
The witches were repelled back badly wounded.
"...ATTACK!"
The power of the sailors hit the two wicked brothers and a cloud of smoke filled the alley.
"We did it!" said Sailor Moon.
The smoke dissolved and Sarcolite and Dioptasio were still standing in front of the Sailor Senshi: "Now you've used all your powers. Now it's our turn!"
They joined their hands and shouted: "DOOM DOUBLE ATTACK!"
All the girls were unable to defend themselves and were hit from the attack.
Dioptasio laughed: "And now, die!"
Eu-chan and Chibiusa were shocked: all their friends had been defeated!
Suddenly Eu-chan ran into the alley, before Chibiusa could stop her.
"No! You won't kill them!" yelled the little girl.
Sarcolite and Dioptasio looked at her and then laughed loud: "And who will stop us? You?"
"Yes! I won't let you hurt my mother and my friends!" Eu-chan looked at Eudial, who was still unconscious. The little girl threw a stone towards Sarcolite and Dioptasio, but they stopped it.
Then Dioptasio, who noticed Eu-chan's look at Eudial, took the stone in his hand and said: "Who's your mother little girl? Let me guess...perhaps she is our sister Eudial..."
He went near the unconscious witch and he threw the stone with all his powers. Eudial moaned when the stone hit her head. A rill of blood went down her face.
Eu-chan stared, then she felt rage growing in her soul. A black star appeared on her forehead and her hair went loose: "I WON'T LET YOU HURT HER ANYMORE!" She cried and her black star enlightened with a bright light. Stones of the alley began to float in the air hitting Sarcolite and Dioptasio and windows' glasses shattered.
"What's this great power?" Dioptasio cried "Let's go away!"
The two brothers teleported away.
Eu-chan looked at the alley with surprise: "I did it?"
Meanwhile the girls were raising themselves. They were all wounded, but their conditions weren't serious. Only Eudial was still laying to the ground.
Silver took her in his arms and he wiped the blood on her face. He noticed the shattered star and touched her forehead: she had a very high fever.
Eu-chan and Usagi came near Silver. They noticed his worried expression.
"What's up?" asked Usagi "Did Sarcolite and Dioptasio wounded her?"
"No. The stone Dioptasio threw caused only a little damage. When the Eclipses Goddess used Eudial's body, she survived, but her powers were ruined. When Eudial used them again her little black star shattered and now her body is suffering. We must take her home and try to drop the fever."
"Silver," asked Eu-chan with trembling voice "Do you think she will survive?"
"Yes, I think she will. But she'll suffer if we don't succeed in dropping her fever soon. And I don't know if she could have her powers back..."
While Usagi, Silver and Eu-chan were taking Eudial home, the other girls and Pikuroll went to the hospital to see Cyprine.
The doctor allowed Pikuroll to see her sister for few minutes, and the witch entered the room.
Ami asked the doctor about Cyprine's condition.
The man looked worried: "I don't know. She's a strong girl, but her wounds are very bad. She's still in coma and she's very weak. Maybe that the presence of her twin can help her. But she could die in every moment."
Pikuroll closed the door behind her. When she looked at the person who was laying in the bed she stared. That couldn't be her sister! She was so pale and almost all her body was bandaged. Cyprine face was bruised and she had a tube in her mouth. Around the bed there were some machines and monitors.
Pikuroll fell on her kneels near the bed and touched her sister's hand: she was so cold...
The witch leaned her face on Cyprine's hand and began weeping and sobbing: "Please, Cyprine, forgive me... I was so cruel with you... Cyprine, don't die, I beg you!"
A nurse entered the room and put a hand on Pikuroll shoulder: "Come on, now we have to cure her. You can see her again later." She drove the witch out of the room.
Pikuroll sat on a bench in the waiting room, sobbing in the arms of Tellu.
