Chapter 20

 Chapter 20

 At Raye's sudden disappearance everyone stood back in shock. "I had no idea she could do that." Lita said in awe. Jadeite in turn clenched his fists at the raw anger and pain he felt wash over him from the heat of Raye's explosive departure.

 "Someone explain to me what the hell is going on?" Darien demanded.

 "We could ask you the same thing." Lita retorted as she grabbed Serena and pulled her into the relative safety of the Senshi. Darien instinctively tried to grab her but with reluctance he stepped back as the Shitenou flanked him.

 Amy activated her personal CPU and blinked when a blue visor appeared and wrapped around her right eye. Amy's fingers flew over the CPU's keyboard as she punched in detailed information and her visor quickly compiled it all as it scanned the present area, Darien and the Shitenou.

 “What you got Amy?" Mina asked her as she eyed the Shitenou suspiciously.

 "Well," she answered. "I can't draw any conclusions at the moment, it’s too much information for the CPU to compile in such a short amount of time...at least with any accuracy. But what I have been able to..." Amy trailed off and her head snapped up from her screen and she stared at the men. "None of these men are a product of this plane."

 "Ok, can someone please explain that to all of us who don't speak science?" Lita asked.

 "They're not of Earth." Mina finished.

 Darien quickly snorted. "That's ridiculous."

 "The data isn't wrong!" Amy exclaimed. "I've checked it twice. None of you are of Earth."

 "Then where the hell are we from?" Darien asked snidely.

 "That's what is so confounding! You're genetics don't match anything I've come across!" Amy said with genuine surprise.

 "But didn't you spend the last year cross-referencing and uploading all the different genetic samples and DNA from all over our star system?" Mina asked.

 "Yes, I even went as far as including all the medical journals and textbooks from all the different worlds, including notes taken from the leaders in medicine and science. All the information I've gathered has been uploaded into my CPU. Anything of this star system I should be able to identify." Amy said.

 "Well, I guess the blue haired girl made a mistake." Nephrite said.

 "Amy never makes mistakes." Lita and Mina said together.

 "You're not even of this Galaxy!" Amy said. Quickly, the Inner Senshi grabbed Serena and thrust her behind them as they made a protective wall between their princess and the perceived threat. "Ok buddy, who are you working for?" Lita demanded of Darien.

 "You've got to be joking." Darien said in disbelief.

 "You're a spy for Galaxia aren't you?!" Lita demanded.

 "Who's Galaxia?" Darien asked thoroughly confused.

 "Of course he's not a spy!" Serena exclaimed as she tried vainly to push aside the Senshi and reach Darien’s side.

 "Duh, of course he's of earth." Nephrite said with a sneer. "That blue dye must've gone straight to your friend’s head."

 "It's not dye! I'll have you know that blue is a very common color on my planet." Amy said as she defensively reached up to pat her bright blue nape length hair.

 "I knew it!" Jadeite yelled triumphantly. "I knew ya'll were from another planet."

 "Wow genius did you figure that out for yourself? What gave us away?" Mina asked dryly. Kunzite quickly covered his bark of laughter with a cough. Mina glanced his way for a split second, the only indication she had heard his laugh, before she turned back to Serena. "What have you told them?"
