The Jellax Scouts

The mighty Jamanen  returned to her Lair one day and was shocked to discover that her beloved Slime Slaves were nowhere to be found. "This is impossible!" she lamented, "where could they have gone by themselves?" Furious and feeling the loss of her family, she scoured the universe for any sign of their presence.  After finding none, she decided to seek out the other youma for help. The first one she contacted was Shakoukai, the youma with such refined manners that she'd acquired the nickname "Polite Society." The two were not friends exactly, but Jamanen disliked her less than most of others...

...finding Shakoukai in her watery cave, Jamanen beseeched her for help, asking if she had any inkling where her missing children might be. "You mean you haven't heard?" Shakoukai asked in her usual snobbish manner. She continued, "my dear, ever since you adopted those ridiculous Sailor Scouts and made them your own, many others have been, shall we say inspired by your success. Perhaps even a bit jealous! They've been trying to find a way to replicate your method, and acquire some followers of their own..."

Jamenen seethed with rage. "Who? Who stole them?"

"Let us just say that a certain youma became especially envious, and begged the Negaforce for permission to borrow your little family and try to turn them to her side. The Negaforce, I'm sad to say, agreed and gave its blessing to this plan. You know how it loves mischief.  Also, I might suspect that your slimy children were enjoying being Jellax a bit too much, and the Negaforce would certainly wish to... shall we say, see them in less comfortable circumstances.   As it were.  Besides, why do you care so much for those five? One mindless slave is as good as another, oui?"

Jamenen shook her head sadly. Shakoukai didn't understand. None of them did. While her Slime Slaves might appear to be brainwashed drones from the outside, on the inside, their minds were alive and joined in the shared bliss of the Jellax. Jamanen loved them more than anything, and could not rest until she was reunited with them. But where to start...

"Anyway, I have some things to do," Shakoukai said as she waved a dismissive hand. "You might try asking Puko? I think she might know something..."
