Gatekeepers 1/2: Paler Shade Of Gray [Episode 205184]

by Kestral

Moving like an old woman, the sort that had arthritis, Setsuna Meiou slowly moved her way to the Gates Of Time. She used them, though she was using them to hold herself upright as opposed to doing anything regarding time travel.

"Puu-chan!" "Puu-chan!" "Puu-chan!" "Puu-chan!" "Puu-chan!" "Puu-chan!" "Puu-chan!"

Setsuna glanced up and FROZE as she beheld SEVEN more Chibi-usa coming her way.

"You meanies! How could you leave us at the Palace!" said four more Chibi-rei.

Another Chibi-mamoru merely sighed and trudged along in the path of this storm.

"Well, now I've seen everything," muttered Setsuna as she clutched at the Time Gates.

"MAMA!" tried one of the Chibi-rei.

"URK!" said Setsuna Meiou, Dignified Guardian Of Time, as she fell over backwards.

"Wow," said the oldest Chibi-usa present. "She fainted."

"Old women like her should watch themselves," said one of the Chibi-rei.

"Ahhhhh!" screamed one of the other Chibi-usa, grabbing a double-handful of hair and hauling Setsuna's head up. "Don't go into the light, Granny-Setsuna!"

Setsuna's eyes briefly looked up, seeing the Royal Horde, and then tried to find something else to focus on.

Unfortunately, that led her to look at the scene playing across the Time Gates.


"Hey, Hotaru!" said Ranma, cheering up a bit as his friend showed up.

"Ranma!" replied Hotaru.

"What brings you here?" asked Ranma.

"I want to be a nurse when I get older," responded Hotaru.

"Oh yeah," said Ranma, nodding at that. "I remember that now."

"You?" asked Hotaru.

"They wanted me to tour the hospital, with this thing dialed down just a little," said Ranma, indicating his Limiter-bracers.

"STOP RIGHT THERE!"

"oh no, not again," said Ranma, Hotaru, security personnel viewing all this via monitor, etcetera, etcetera.

Sailor Mars posed dramatically. "Whatever you're intending to do here, your nefarious plans end now you pervert!"

"I really don't think you should be doing this," said Sailor Mercury.

"THIS is the menace we're responding to?" asked Sailor Jupiter. "I'm going home."

"I heard from Sailor Mercury that you're planning something here!" said Sailor Mars, pointing at the Gatekeeper. "Your PervGate won't save you this time!"

"Can we NOT go through this again?" asked Ranma, apparently addressing the ceiling.

"Maybe I should go with you," said Sailor Mercury to Sailor Jupiter.

"Sounds good, I ran across a recipe for Tollhouse Cookies I wanted to try," said Sailor Jupiter.

"Guys, a little support here?" interjected Sailor Mars.

"Right!" declared Sailor Moon, beginning her wind-up as she made various sentai gestures.

"This is a hospital, you know," said Ranma. "Says so on the outside of the building and all."

"FLAME SNIPER!"

Ranma stared down at a smouldering bracer. "I can't believe you did that."

"I can't believe she did that," said Hotaru, staring at the bracer.

"I can't believe she did THAT," said Doctor Etsuko Takayama, getting a bad feeling about this.

"I can't believe it," said Doctor Kumori Mizuno.

"I can't believe she did that," said various patients, personnel, security guards, members of the press, nearby AEGIS personnel, and so on.

snap, crackle, pop went a Gate Limiter.

FWASH! went something like pink and white light.

"oopsie," said Sailor Mars somewhere in that lighting effect.


"And nine months later, I was born!" said the oldest looking Chibi-usa and Chibi-rei.

"Actually, there was a spike in business for the obstetrics department," drily commented Chibi-mamoru. "Right, Setsuna-mama?"

"URK!" said Setsuna Meiou.

"You're just mad at Setsuna-mama because she keeps using that whip on Rei-mama," said Chibi-mamoru to Chibi-rei.

Setsuna Meiou, dignified guardian of time, clutched at her chest. "So this is what it feels like to have a heart attack."

"It's Mama's whip," protested Chibi-rei.

Thud!

"She fainted again," said Chibi-mamoru.

"All right!" said Chibi-rei to the various other Chibi-rei and Chibi-usa. "Time to play dress up!"

"Grossss," said the various Chibi-mamoru. "We're out of here."
