Disclaimers: Jigoku Shoujo is the creation of Studio Deen and Princess
Comet is the creation of Mitsuteru Yokoyama. Obviously these two series
where never intended to be combined.
"Comet, Comet. You've got a call, you've got a call."
Princess Comet turned from preparing dinner and faced the Toukichi
twins, "Who is it?"
"It's Meteor's dad."
"But he's dead."
"Her Earth dad," the twins were two out of a handful of Earthlings who
knew about the Triangle Nebula.
"Hello, Comet here."
"Yes Comet, have you seen Meteor today? She disappeared last night and
we haven't seen her all day."
"Oh, you know Meteor, she's always being difficult. I'm sure it's no
big deal."
"But she's been upset all week. I hope she hasn't done anything rash."
"Okay, if I see her I'll call you," As Princess Comet hung up the phone
she remembered how Princess Meteor had been without Star Power all week.
"Mrs. Toukichi I've got to go out, can you handle dinner?"
"Sure Comet, just don't stay out too late please."
"I'll be back before you know it," Outside the house Comet touched her
amulet, "Are the Star Children still avoiding Meteor?"
Rubber Ball bounced out of Comet's amulet and assumed the form of a big
headed small dog, "Do you blame them? She's such a terrible brat. I'm
surprised that they ever gave her any Star Power in the first place."
"Each of the royal families of the Triangle Nebula has an equal call on
the Star Power. I guess that her mom is simply using up a lot or
something."
"If so it's for no good."
"Give me a lift please," Comet climbed aboard as Rubber Ball inflated
out to a sphere two meters in diameter.
"If you want, but if she's this low on starlight I doubt I'll be able
to find her."
"Let's head to the beach. Meteor always goes there when she wants to
think."
As predicted Meteor sat on the beach, clutching something in her lap.
"Meteor?" Comet stood a few steps behind the other princess.
"So, you're here," Meteor looked out towards the fading sunset.
"Your parents, I mean your adopted parents. They're worried about you.
If it's about the Star Power I think that if you just ask nicely the
Star Children will give it back to you."
"I don't need that anymore and I don't need that traitor Muuku,"
Meteor
stood, faced Comet and held up a black straw doll, "This is all I need
to end your interference with my mission."
"Princess Comet, watch out!" Rubber Ball jumped between the two
princesses, "That thing has a dark power, without a trace of
starlight."
"Too late," Meteor untied a red thread from the neck of the doll,
"Goodbye Princess Comet."
A huge wind arose and swept the doll from Princess Meteor's hand as an
old man's voice said, "I will deliver your vengeance."
The ground dropped away from under Princess Comet and she fell. She
closed her eyes for a moment then felt a gentle rocking. She looked up
and saw that she was on a boat passing under a black Torii. "Where am
I?"
"We're on the boat to Hell," A red eyed girl in a kimono printed with
flowers that seemed to not move against the background stood at the back
of the boat and paddled it forwards, "I'm taking you to Hell."
Princess Comet stood and saw that she had been striped of crown, amulet,
ring and most importantly baton. Facing the girl from Hell, Comet
raised her hand over her head, "Children of the Stars please grant me
the ultimate power that makes stars shine. Combine your atoms into a
blinding flash!" But nothing happened.
The girl with red eyes continued to paddle, "The stars do not shine in
hell."
Back on Earth Rubber Ball bounced around franticly, "Princess Comet!
Princess Comet! Where have you gone?"
"I've sent her to Hell," Meteor took the red thread and tied it around
her finger, "But don't worry, I'll join her there soon. I just need to
find the Prince and take him back to the Triangle Nebula. And then I'll
need to marry him and produce a heir and make sure the dynasty is
secure. So just fifty years to tie up some loose threads and I'll go
straight to Hell. And then I can tell Comet how I've beaten her at
everything. Ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho!"
