"The Sailor Senshi will stop you," said Setsuna.
"Perhaps. If it looks likely, I've still got this," said Coccooner, holding an amulet aloft. "I can always return home using the residual energies. Now, will you let me introduce them?"
"I suppose," allowed Setsuna. "I seem to be tied up at the moment."
"Thank you," said Coccooner, nodding her insectile head graciously. "This is a Buzzqueen. Her task is to go far to the South from here, to find a good spot for her Hive and to live long and prosper."
"Why are you telling me your plans?" asked Setsuna, looking at it from a logical perspective. NOT watching a coquetteishly posing bee-girl.
"How can you rally your Senshi and fight me if you don't have any idea what you're facing?" asked Coccooner.
"You WANT to fight the Senshi?" asked Setsuna.
"Eventually," said Coccooner. "We'll be allies first, united against a common foe before we part ways then part in order to have our fight in the next season."
"What?" asked Setsuna.
"Vampire Queen!" said Coccooner, moving on to the next General. "Uprated from Vampire. She'll be heading far to the West."
"So they'll be waiting around for the Senshi to come and fight them?" asked Setsuna.
"No, they'll reproduce," said Coccooner. "Find nice guys, let nature take its course."
"That doesn't sound very menacing," said Setsuna. "They don't have your coccooning talents, do they?"
"Oh no, they're not like me," said Coccooner. Meaning they couldn't mass-produce in that fashion and were very limited in what they could do.
"Okay," said Setsuna.
"HAIIIIII!" declared the third General, smiling and waving happily at the captive Time Senshi. "We're gonna be GOOD friends."
"Uhm," said Setsuna, not sure how to respond to that.
"You're getting ahead of me," gently chided Coccooner. "This is in some ways my most powerful creation so far."
"Sorry. Oh. Yay!" said the third General.
"There's always a balance," said Coccooner. "Phenomenal cosmic power. Unfortunately, not the brightest of beings. She's going to go with you and help you defeat your enemies."
"You know about them?" asked Setsuna.
"Oh yes," said Coccooner. "Near as I can figure, this is the start of the 'S' season."
"So, what does this girl do?" asked Setsuna, diverting attention from the idea that this crazy monster-woman actually had inside information on the Senshi.
"Esper abilities which reinforce her physical abilities," said Coccooner. "Her strength, speed, and invulnerability are extremely high. She can fly. Her clairvoyance vision allows her to see through most substances, and her pyrokinetic vision is able to burn through even more substances."
"Right!" said the girl, punching the air.
"You're kidding," said Setsuna.
"No, actually," said Coccooner. "I came up with the basic design a couple of centuries ago. I'd been working out the details in a sort of 'seed' form. Accumulating power and data. Finally decided to just go ahead and try it. It was in case I ever had to go up against Typhonna. I'd needed some major firepower if that happened just to try and get away. Still insufficient I think, but certainly capable against smaller menaces."
"Why are you lending her to the Senshi?" asked Setsuna.
"Because, my dear magical girl, I don't want to destroy the world," said Coccooner. "Just transform it. Or parts of it."
