She'd also worked out the plague scenario fairly easily. Something that killed men off would be the easiest thing to accomplish. It would have satisfied her Dark Side, but not the Original Recipe.
Pluto had worked it all out and set it loose, and watched in amusement as the newly enhanced virus was released in 1976 during a construction project in Shanghai. By the time anyone realized that the new disease was an airborne contagion with flu-like symptoms - it had spread through most of the country.
It was simple for her to take part of the Make Up transformation, to come up with a basic idealized female physical template. The mental/emotional template was more difficult. Putting it into the virus samples and charging them with magic was still more difficult. When it was done, it cut through the populace exposed to it with a force unseen even in the times of the Black Death.
The construction company that had uncovered the viral samples was the first group stricken, and as the second week occurred - they couldn't help but notice the accelerating physical changes. Whether they started out as young or old, muscular or fat didn't matter. In each case they were becoming young and feminine.
As they were all Chinese, the victims all ended up with a classic Han beauty and diminuitive appearance. The changes were more than just physical as the victims quickly discovered. Brain chemistry was affected, as was the architecture of their personality. Docile, submissive, gentle, friendly - these were all qualities that could be used to describe those altered by the virus.
Pluto thought it was all amusing. Crystal Tokyo would be a place of beauty, peace, and love. A utopia where everyone lived in harmony. Since the guys were in the process of transforming into docile beauties, they'd end up with no objection whatsoever to the new world order.
"Hold it right there!"
"Too late," said Dark Pluto as the Senshi caught up. "A perfect world is on its way."
"What?! Hey, why can't I move?" asked Sailor Mars.
"I'm the Guardian Of Time," pointed out Dark Pluto. "I used the Gates to surround you in a bubble of no-time which stopped you between moments while I finished my task."
Sailor Moon blinked. "Can she do that?"
"I even had time to prepare a welcome for you," purred Dark Pluto. "I hope you appreciate the trouble I had to get these."
"Why do I have a bad feeling about this?" asked Sailor Moon, trying to move her body below the neck.
"Because your bodies from the neck down have been paralyzed by being caught in a paralytic field," explained Dark Pluto. "It's a device utilized for medical traumas in Crystal Tokyo. It only works for a brief period but that should be enough." snap!
After Dark Pluto snapped her fingers, dark shapes shambled out of the mists.
"Yoma?" asked Sailor Moon, aghast.
"Close enough," said Dark Pluto. "May I introduce to you my Philia Five?"
"Can I pass on this?" asked Sailor Mars.
"No," answered Dark Pluto. "On the far right is Latexxx. I'm sure he'll make you feel right at home, Ami."
"Is the name descriptive?" asked Sailor Mercury.
"Yes," said Dark Pluto. "Each of the Philia Five is the master of a particular erotic specialty, and they'll entertain you while I make sure things are locked down."
