Chapter 175 - Chapter 175: Of Arms And Ammunition And From Russia With Love!: Enter Revy 'Two Hands,' Cat 'Double Tap' Lee, And Hotel Moscow! (Part 1)

"Hello there viewers, Angel Bluebell here...*I proceed to say this, while smiling with both of my eyes closed. To which I then proceed to open both of them up again, in order to continue, to properly address the viewers*...Now then viewers, before I proceed with the chapter...Which as of right now, is still currently taking place in the Cardcaptors anime timeline...And as usual viewer...*I proceed to say this, while also proceeding to smile with both of my eyes closed in a very cute looking manner. But, just as I proceed to do this. Only for a certain someone to now proceed to come into the frame of shot, and then proceed to speak up*"

"Hey, Angel Bluebell was it? Were you the one by any chance that sent me, Revy, Rock, Benny, and Dutch here?! Because that could prove to be a very big problem for you, isn't that right Revy?!...*Catherine and Revy proceed to come into the frame of shot. To which they both proceed to reach for one of their respective holstered and modified Beretta's. To which they then proceed to take them out of their respective holsters, cock the hammer back on each of their respective Beretta pistols, and then proceed to point them directly at my back*"

"*While I still have my back to both Catherine and Revy. I now proceed to let out a very audible sigh from my mouth. Which I have also proceeded to do with both of my eyes closed. And once I have opened both of my eyes again. I then proceed to address both Catherine and Revy. While I also proceed to try and be as polite as I possibly can be, given the current situation*...Okay, so first of all, I am not the one who dragged you both into this alongside Benny and Dutch. If anything, I would've made sure that none of you wound up involved in any of this in the first place. And that is due in a large part, that while arms and ammunition can do damage to the usual mortal. They can't do anything to anyone who wields any sort of magic. So believe me when I say Two Hands and Double Tap, that...*I proceed to say this, while I still have my back to Revy and Catherine, only for one of them to then proceed to cut me off mid sentence. Which predictably has now caused one of my eyes to now proceed to start visibly twitching again*"

"Shut up! Just shut up! My god you're as annoying as Rock is! You know Cat? When you said that she was annoying, I didn't think that you meant that she was just so damn outright intolerable! But now I can see Cat that you were right! So, what do you say that we both teach this armor larping chick a lesson!?...*Revy proceeds to say this, while she proceeds to also display a look of very noticeable rage on her face. To which once she starts to speak over to Catherine without moving her head or eyesight. Her facial expression, then proceeds to quickly shift over to a very devilish and evil looking smirk. As in the one of the very same expressions that Revy is known for in the Black Lagoon anime*"

"*While I still have my back to both Catherine and Revy. I now proceed to let out yet another very audible sigh from my mouth. Which once again, I have also proceeded to do with both of my eyes closed. And once I have opened both of my eyes again. I then proceed to continue to address both Catherine and Revy. While I also proceed to try and be and still be as polite as I possibly can be, given the current situation*...So then Revy, I take it that Catherine hasn't told you yet? You know, that your bullets aren't going to land a scratch on me at all? But, if doing so is going to make you as much of a believer as Catherine is, then by all means open fire...*I proceed to say this, while still having my back to both Catherine and Revy. To which my facial expression now proceeds to change over to an all too familiar smug, and very witty looking smirk*"

"Wow, you must really have some sort of death wish then don't you?! Well then, have it your way!...*Revy proceeds to say this with the same devilish and evil looking smirk from before still very much present on her face. To which both her and Catherine, then proceed to open fire on me. But, as I had predicted, the bullets simply wound up shattering into several pieces of shrapnel, and then simply wound up disintegrating into nothing once they had made contact with my back. Which just like Catherine from the previous chapter. Has now caused both her and Revy, to now display very dumbfounded looking expressions on each of their respective faces*"

"Okay, so are you two quite finished then?...*I proceed to say this, while proceeding to get no immediate answer or response from either Catherine or Revy*...Good, so then viewers...let us now finally get on with the chapter...Oh almost forgot viewers...because as usual, a chapter recap is in order...So then viewers, let us now get on with the mandatory chapter recap, shall we?...*I proceed to say this, while also proceeding to smile with both of my eyes closed in a very cute looking manner*"

Date: Present Day, As It Is A Fourth Wall Break

"Hello viewers, Catherine here again...*Catherine proceeds to say this, while giving yet another very sexy cat pawing motion, with one of her hands*...Now then, enough about that, and let's...*Catherine proceeds to say this, while giving yet another very sexy cat pawing motion, with one of her hands. But suddenly, I then proceed to come into the frame of shot, and then proceed to speak up*"

"Who the heck are you? And you seriously think that those pistols of yours are going to give you some sort of edge in what is to await you and Revy in the events to come?…*I proceed to come in to the frame of shot and then speak up to Catherine with*"

"And who are you supposed to be exactly? And by the way, the renaissance fair called, they want their larping armor back…*Catherine proceeds to say this back to me in response, while giving off a very evil and devilish looking smirk*"

"Well Catherine it's funny you should mention that. Angel Bluebell here by the way viewers...And on the subject of one Catherine 'Cat' Lee viewers, she is after all, another version of me, Keiko, and Zachary...Now then viewers...*I proceed to say this, while also proceeding to attempt to try and start the chapter. Only for Catherine to sort of throw a wrench into that*"

"What do you mean I am another version of you?! I look nothing like you! Alright, you've officially become extremely annoying! So if I were you, I would start explaining things a bit more clearly. Unless you want to end up with bullet holes!...*Catherine proceeds to say this back to me in response, while reaching for one of her currently holstered and modified Beretta 9Ms. To which she then proceeds to quickly remove it from its holster, and then proceed to point it directly at me*"

"Well Catherine, you clearly do take after your sister Revy, there is definitely no doubt about that. But I think that you will find Catherine, that your bullets won't be able to land a scratch on me. So then viewers...*I proceed to say this, only for Catherine to once again proceed to cut me off mid sentence*"

"Shut up, you're not making any sense! So I am supposed to believe that you possess some form of magic?! Well then, why don't we test that theory of yours, hmm?...*Catherine proceeds to say this, while then proceeding to immediately pull the trigger on her modified Beretta 9M. Which after a brief muzzle flash from her Beretta's barrel, a single bullet proceeds to quickly exit the barrel. And then proceeds to quickly make its way towards me*

"Okay Catherine, I guess that you were going to have to learn eventually. And for the record viewers? Catherine should be lucky that I'm damn near bulletproof. Which by the way viewers, is in fact a reference to She-Hulk, from one of her original comics...*I proceed to say this. And sure enough, as soon as the bullet from Catherine's Beretta hits my gold chest plate. The bullet proceeds to instantly shatter into several tiny pieces of shrapnel, and then disintegrate*...Now then Catherine, is that more then enough proof for you?...*I proceed to say this back to Catherine in response, only to be met by a currently very dumbfounded expression that is currently on her face*...Good, you seem to be a believer now...Now then viewers, what do you say, that we finally get on with the chapter now, hmm?...*I proceed to say this, while also proceeding to smile with both of my eyes closed, in a very cute looking manner*"

Date: November 2, 1995

Okay, so things regarding Catherine, Revy, Rock, Benny, Dutch, and our supposed getaway from the Yellow Flag to the Lagoon Company torpedo boat. Well, they had sort of gotten a bit off the rails so too speak.

And as for why this was the case? Well, as we had been driving down the road at a very fast speed. None of them were able to see a quickly onrushing wave of bright white light coming towards us and the car, until it slammed into them, and then proceeded to blind all of them temporarily.

And the weird thing was, that once the light had then proceeded to quickly die down. And the car wound up swerving quite badly, with the tires squealing quite loudly. The car then proceeded to come to a screeching stop. As the front end of the car proceeded to emit quite a bit of steam from beneath the hood. Which indicated that the engine had seized.

But as for where they had all ended up? Well you see, about that...

"Why hello there, how nice of you all to join our little gathering," An evil sounding chorus of female voices proceeded to call out from just in front of the car in stereo.

And upon Catherine then proceeding to quickly glance upwards, her blue eyes then happened upon what appeared to be a young looking girl. Who had long black hair, and was wearing a multi colored dress. And more interestingly, she was currently wielding two ancient looking flintlock pistols.

But, that wasn't the only strange and bizarre thing about this girl. What was also very strange, was that this girl, was only one of several dozen of her. Which indicated that this girl had the ability to duplicate herself into several clones.

And then...

"Now then, shall we see just how much heavier magic is compared to bullets!" The girl and her clones proceeded to speak up with.

And then...

"Fourth Bullet: Dalet!" The multiple girls wound up all exclaiming together in unison. Which as the respective large and very strange looking Victorian clock faces behind them all began to briefly shine. And they each then raised one of their respective flintlock pistols. This caused the minute and hour hands of each of their respective large Victorian clock faces, to spin until the hour hand landed on the IV, or the roman numeral for four. And the minute hand, wound up landing once again on XII, or the roman numeral for twelve.

And this was then once again followed, by the multiple girls, to also proceed to put each of their respective and currently raised flintlock pistols to the temple on each of their respective heads.

Which was then followed after they had all shot themselves in the temple, by the all too familiar appeared of red colored magical energy, then proceeding to flow out from the IV roman numeral on each of the girls respective large Victorian clock faces. They all then, once again proceeded to point each of their respective now reloaded single flintlock pistols at Catherine, Revy, Rock, Benny, and Dutch.

And, with each of the flintlock pistols flintlock mechanisms once again then proceeding to emit a spark. This then caused each of the now newly loaded bullets, to exit the chambers of each of the Kurumi clones barrels of their respective single loaded flintlock pistols.

But, just like before as each of these multiple flintlock pistol bullets proceeded to quickly whizz through the air towards us, while leaving somewhat noticeable sound waves behind each of them as they proceeded to do so. They simply wound up slamming into the car, and pretty much impact the car all over the frame, doors, the hood, and pretty much the entire surface of the car.

"Okay viewers, well I think that that is more then enough of this current chapter for now...Angel Bluebell by the way here viewers...*I proceed to say this, while smiling with both of my eyes closed. To which I then proceed to open both of them up again, in order to continue, to properly address the viewers*...And also, let me now proudly announce, the successful merging of 'Of Arms And Ammunition,' into these current three fanfics!...Yes viewers, you did in fact read that part right...Black Lagoon, is now a part of these three fanfics...You know viewers, to help cater to a bit of an older audience?...But anyway viewers, things are about to get quite a bit crazy...So if I were you viewers, then I would be on the lookout for the next chapter!...So viewers, with this now very much still fresh on all of your minds, we all look forward to seeing you there...okay?...*I proceed to say this, while also proceeding to smile with both of my eyes closed, in a very cute looking manner*"

"Yes indeed Bluebell...Hello there viewers, Keiko here again...*Keiko proceeds to say this while traditionally bowing to the viewers as usual. To which she then proceeds to bring her attention and eyesight back up again, in order to continue to address the viewers. Keiko also now proceeds to clear her throat, as she then proceeds to continue, to properly address the viewers*...And let me also welcome one Catherine 'Cat' Lee, and the rest of Lagoon Company into what is now four separate but merged anime fanfics...I mean after all viewers, you know of the anime Black Lagoon don't you?...But anyway viewers, see you lot in the next chapter...okay?...*Keiko proceeds to say this, while also smiling with both of her eyes closed, and her head tilted to one side, in a very cute looking manner*"

And now that the chapter recap is over and done with. Well, at least for now, we will now proceed on with the chapter at hand.

Date: August 12, 2018

Okay, so getting back to the current situation, as well as the current fight at hand. Which was just after Catherine, Revy, Rock, Dutch, and Benny, had ended up in the current anime timeline that we were all still currently in...

"Okay, so who the heck are those people? And why does one of them have the same color as Keiko and Bluebell?" Super Sailor Jupiter now proceeded to speak up with out of seemingly nowhere.

And, as a means to help clear the currently present confusion...

"Well Jupiter, as it just so happens, one of them happens to be another version of me, Keiko, and Zachary. The one with the long ocean blue hair. And also viewers? In case you decided to go and skip the last chapter? Let me now properly introduce, Cat 'Double Tap' Lee, Revy 'Two Hands' Lee, Rock, Benny, and finally Dutch...All of which are from the one and only Black Lagoon anime timeline...You know viewers? The anime that is...*I proceed to say this. Only once again, to now have someone proceed to interject into my current fourth wall break. Which not surprisingly, has now once again caused one of my eyes, to start visibly twitching yet again*"

"Are you insane Bluebell?! Do you not realize just how vulgar and inappropriate that anime is?!" Keiko now proceeded to shout over to me with in response to what I had just been trying to explain to the viewers via my current fourth wall break.

And as for me and my response back to Keiko...

"Yes Keiko, I am all too well aware of that regarding the Black Lagoon anime. But, as a sort of way to help to deter that. And as a certain superhero once said in a certain movie, 'we don't do that here'...And just to let you viewers know?...I think you should all know all too well, as to why I have decided not to mention who they specifically are, or what the form of media is that they are from right?...As I still very much would not like to get a c&d from a certain big brand cartoon mouse...I will continue to say who these individuals are, while not saying who these individuals are...Which believe it or not viewers, actually makes perfect sense if you think about it...I mean after all viewers...if you know, you know...Now then viewers, this does unfortunately mark...*I proceed to say this, while also proceeding to smile with both of my eyes closed, in a very cute looking manner. As I also continue to then proceed to do my usual end of chapter fourth wall break. Only for someone to then proceed to once again intrude into my usual end of chapter fourth wall break. As they then proceed to speak up. Which like the last time, causes me to then wind up thinking twice about possibly ending the current chapter*"

"Bluebell, don't even think about ending this chapter this soon!...*Misaka proceeds to suddenly come into the frame of shot. To which she proceeds to say her statement somewhat angrily to me. Which she also proceeds to say, while electricity also proceeds to violently and visibly crackle through the bangs of her short brown hair*"

"Uh r-right Misaka, my bad...Yes indeed viewers, Misaka still scares the absolute living daylights out of me...And so viewers, as per Misaka's request, let us now proceed onward, and continue with the current chapter at hand...now then, how about we go and do just that, okay?...*I proceed to say this, while also proceeding to smile with both of my eyes closed, in a very cute looking manner*"

Okay, so getting back to the current chapter, as well as the current situation at hand...

"Capitan, I have spotted some civilians," a very strong sounding male voice proceeded to say quite quietly from just around one of the streets corners that we were all currently still on. And they had proceeded to say this statement of theirs quietly, with a hint of what was a Russian sounding accent.

And once I had heard this person say this statement of theirs with the help of my heightened hearing, my body then proceeded to immediately tense up. And a look of complete and total fear then proceeded to find its way onto my face.

And as for my overall and current thought process with regard to this...

"Oh god...oh dear god no...so 'they' are here as well?!...Oh no...this has now gotten very very bad and also extremely dangerous!...And as for those of you viewers, who don't know who it is that I am talking about?...Well you see..." I proceeded to think to myself.

But, just as I had proceeded to briefly turn my eyesight slightly to my right, in order for me to briefly address the viewers, a certain voice then proceeded to speak up in response to what the male voice had just said no more then a couple seconds before. Which had now all but destroyed any chance of these individuals not being who I thought they were.

And as for who this other person was? Well about that...

"Very good work Comrade Sergeant. Now then men, what do you say that we go and greet the locals?" A now very heavy Russian accented female voice proceeded to speak up in response to what the male voice had just said to her.

And with me now realizing that there was no longer any sort of doubt...

"Uh...well, this just got extremely crazy, as well as dangerous...Well viewers, I don't think that there is any sort of doubt anymore is there?...So then, let me introduce, one Sofiya Pavlovna Irinovskaya...or as all of you diehard Black Lagoon fans know her more as, Balalaika and the leader of Hotel Moscow...Yes indeed viewers, this really is a very good and clear of case of being 'From Russia With Love' isn't it? Minus the 'Love' part that is. And for the record viewers, that was in fact an indirect reference to the James Bond movie, 'From Russia With Love.' You know the one right viewers, the same James Bond movie with the one and only Sir Sean Connery?...But anyway viewers, I think that this is more then a great place to end this chapter don't you? But don't worry yourselves viewers, as we will be getting right back into the action in the next chapter...So viewers, see you there, okay?...*I proceed to say this, while also proceeding to smile with both of my eyes closed, in a very cute looking manner*"
