That was why she didn't see the set of pink hearts smacking into her head with such strength that they knocked her over.
"Wow. This old thing really did work," commented a voice that sounded oddly familiar. "Mom was actually right about it."
"In Serenity's name, what...." Pluto began... before a pair of knees slammed into her gut and knocked her the floor.
"I don't care if you're talking about Mom's first mom, or Mom, but don't swear by their names when you're doing stuff like this!"
"What... Who?"
"Why Puu, I would've thought that you'd know who I was."
"'Puu'? But the only one who called me that was...." the corrupted Senshi said with a cough before looking up to see a pink haired teenaged girl wearing a pink accented fuku. "Chibi-usa."
"You keep on calling me that! My mom calls me 'Usa-chan'. My dad calls me 'Usa-chan'. The other Senshi call me 'Usa-chan'. My friends call me 'Usa-chan'. My boyfriend... calls me other names in private, but usually calls me Usa-chan in front of other people. But you still call me by the name that I had when I was a kid!"
"You have a boyfriend?"
"Yes, and I'm not about to let you keep him from getting born," Sailor Chibi-Moon replied, though she wasn't so 'chibi' anymore.
"I don't think that you understand what you are doing."
"But I do."
"And you still want to ruin the future?"
"I want to protect it," the pink haired teen replied, and drove a punch into the woman's gut. "And you're forgetting something."
"Like what?"
"I am a Sailor Senshi, the heir of the heir to the Moon Kingdom, and I've had years to grow into my powers."
"So?"
"I'm the one sent to defeat you."
"I don't think that you can... OOF!"
"Martial arts lessons do work," the teenager commented as she decked Pluto. Then she proceeded to kick and punch the woman until she was reeling, and then grabbed the wrist of the hand that held the Time Key Staff. Twisting it about, she made her opponent yelp in pain and drop the weapon before stomping on one of the Time Senshi's feet, and smacking her in the face with the heel of her hand.
Pluto was totally confused by what was going on. By her knowledge, Chibi-usa should still be a child, and shouldn't be able to fight this well. Sure, she was far from being among the best fighters around, but she had been trained well enough to show that Senshi strength could be used quite well.
But it was when Chibi-Moon grabbed the Time Staff that she showed that she'd really grown into her powers. Clearly having planned on removing the elder Senshi from her weapon, she used the butt of it to smack her in the belly before pulling back to use a ranged attack. "Pink Moon Heart Beat!"
A large pulse in the shape of a pink heart shot across the space between them, and passed over Pluto, flinging the tainted Senshi into the air. The wave of energy crashed over her body, and left her senseless before she crashed to the ground and dropped to the ground. Her muscles fought against moving again, but she knew that she had to do so to salvage her plans.
Unfortunately for her, her teenaged opponent wasn't about to let her do that. "Moon Gorgeous Meditation!"
When that hit, Dark Pluto's body bent with the force of pain that went through her, though she knew that part of it didn't seem to be her own pain.
"Pink Lady's Freezing Kiss!"
This time, Pluto felt nothing, as all her senses were locked up, and she could feel her mind fade into the stupor of at least unconsciousness.
Chibi-Moon looked at the frozen form of Dark Pluto and sighed with relief. She'd smacked the woman down, and knew that if she let up, it might risk a chance that she could get beaten. But she hadn't wanted to hurt the woman who'd been so nice to her as a child, even if she was completely nuts now. So she'd forced herself to use the various techniques that's she'd learned as a Senshi to beat her. Now that she had beaten her old friend, she had something to do before things could be settled, and she could get transform back to civilian form.
As such, she had to:
