Act 16: Hidden Agenda ~ Nemesis!
Now we are finally at the original chapter of the story. I want to personally thank you for the support this far and for giving me the strength to continue to story like no other. However, I was running out of ideas at first but I thought that it would seem fair to put some of the original chapters into the story so we all could be on track within the story. It also might seem to help to know where we are going.
(I do not own Sailor Moon Crystal. I only own my OCs.)
Here's what if...this would happen within this chapter...
Previously on Sailor Moon Crystal ~ The Exclusive Earth's Journey...
While Sailor Moon and Sailor Earth are captured by the Black Moon Clan, Lily finally encounters Graphite and claims her as his guest. He tried to make a deal with her but she refused and rejected his offer. In anger, Graphite decided to escalate the power of the Black Malefic Crystal to drain both Sailor Moon and Lily's power, nearly endangering her life. He transports her to Usagi's location and allows her to move freely around the palace.
Meanwhile, back at Crystal Tokyo, the gang tries to think of a new plan to rescue Sailor Earth, Sailor Moon, and the rest of the Guardians. But fear of loss of hope, they thought that Chibi Usa could help. However, due to the point that they discover the truth about Chibi Usa is unable to use any powers of her own. They come up with another plan. Sailor Kunzite suggested teleporting Sailor Jadeite, Sailor Zoisite, and Sailor Nephrite to Nemesis to go find Sailor Earth and Sailor Moon along with the Guardians. In an agreement, the trio transformed into gems and teleported to Nemesis to find their friends. While the rest of the gang tries to come up with a new plan.
Meanwhile, back on Nemesis, Usagi soon realizes Lily is becoming very weak as Lily's energy has been taken. Usagi felt mixed emotions and didn't know what to do. Suddenly, the Golden Crystal revealed itself and called for help. Three gems appeared with familiar voices from within them who decided to help. Sending energy to save Lily, but need more energy. Usagi agrees to help and sends her energy to save Lily. Together, Lily recovered from her terrible fate.
While Lily recovers, Usagi still feels lost. But Lily and the gems reminded Usagi that she wasn't alone and helped her to remain hopeful. While hope remains, Lily and Usagi go looking while Sailor Jadeite, Sailor Zoisite, and Sailor Nephrite find the missing guardians.
Back at Crystal Tokyo, Chibi Usa felt down and feeling useless for not being able to help. Remembering the times when she had gone down a path that felt dark and cold. However, she hoped to have comfort from Sailor Pluto. Therefore, Chibi Usa discovered that Sailor Pluto has a loving husband and a daughter. Feeling a bit lonelier, Chibi Usa wandered into the darkness. Where someone is now waiting for her and changes her fate and lives further into darkness.
And now, the conclusion...
While Chibi Usa is alone with the dark figure in the realm of darkness, he speaks to her with a cold and comforting voice. "To walk away from everything you know and everyone you cared about. You thought that you were wandering aimlessly."
"Uh..." Chibi Usa felt dizzy.
"But," the figure continued. "You were searching for me without realizing it. Someone, who wants you. Someone, who needs you. Come, come with me."
"B...but..." Chibi Usa fell almost into a trance.
"Yes?"
"What about one of my sisters? Moonflower and Moon Rose?" Chibi Usa asked. "Will they...?"
"Your younger twin sister can't come," the figure replied. "But your older sister is with me and my apprentice. Waiting for you."
"She is?" Chibi Usa felt calm in that trance.
"Yes, and she is willing to see you again." The figure offered his hand. "Will you like to see her too?"
"Yes," Chibi Usa replied as she placed her small hand into his large hand.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~End of the OPENING~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Back in Space-Time, Sailor Pluto was still holding the key that belonged to Chibi Usa. Suddenly, the key has started to glow. Within the blink of an eye, a storm started to blow out of nowhere. "What could have caused a storm here?" Sailor Pluto wondered. "Someone has disturbed the space-time continuum." Suddenly, an image of Chibi Usa has flashed into her mind. As the key is glowing, it suddenly flies towards Sailor Pluto's forehead and allows her to see something that is unbelievable.
In a vision that Sailor Pluto is seeing, everything is covered in darkness. However, a young prince of the Black Moon Clan: Graphite is grumbling in anger. "That Earth princess," Graphite grumbled. "She doesn't know what she is messing with."
"My apprentice," the Wise Man appeared with his new guest. "I see that your attempt to let the Earth Princess join our side has failed."
"That stubborn princess doesn't know what she is dealing with," Graphite spoke. "Since my spell is weakening her slowly, I bet that will change her mind not to mess with me."
"Where did you put my sister at?" a young voice asked.
Graphite jumped, and he turned. Seeing a familiar young girl in a trance. Graphite looks at his teacher and back to the young girl. "I put her with Future Neo-Queen Serenity, so she will not be so lonely," Graphite answered.
"Why did you put my sister...with her?" the young girl's voice growled in a jealous tone. "You should kept my sister away from her."
"I wasn't expecting you to come," Graphite gulped. "Plus she made me unhappy when she refused my proposal."
"You wished for her hand?" the young girl asked.
"You can say that," Graphite nodded, fearfully.
"Wrong-o," the young girl glared. "If you wished for her hand, you have to prove your worthy to her...to me..."
Graphite gulped. "Note taken."
"Plus...I hated the idea of Sailor Moon being near to my elder sister and to Mamo." The young girl growled. "I hate being in the middle, being a shadow. I will not forgive when everyone has given attention to others more than me. If I not been given the attention that I deserved, then I should take it by force." Suddenly, the young girl started to glow, however, her aura was darker than it was usually supposed to be.
"My apprentice," Wise Man spoke. "Let's lend out blessings to our new queen."
Graphite eyes widened, slowly he understood. Graphite nodded. Slowly, together. Graphite and Wise Man has started to do a ritual while they are sending their blessing to the young child.
https://youtu.be/OmEws7hNMZI
While the ritual is completed, the woman smiles wickedly as her eyes gleam in the dark. "Welcome to our kingdom, Black Lady." Wise Man spoke and Graphite bowed. "Queen of Darkness and the new Queen of Nemesis."
Black Lady smiled as she plotted a plan for a new victory of Nemesis.
When the vision has ended, the key has stopped glowing. The key landed back into Sailor Pluto's hand, nearly leaving everything silence within the wind. In fear, Sailor Pluto become even more worried than ever before. "Oh no," she muttered. "Small Lady is now too deep into the heart of the storm and into darkness." Suddenly, a strong gust of wind has knocked off her feet and sent Sailor Pluto flying. King Endymion...Robert...Little Ruby... Sailor Pluto thought as she collapsed to her back. Knocked out unconscious for a moment.
In the library of the Crystal Palace, Sailor Venus, Sailor Turquoise, Sailor Topaz, Sailor Kunzite, Tuxedo Mask, Artemis, and Luna are examined through the computer. Searching for different options that they are missing. While King Endymion and Bailey are watching them from behind. "This sure is an incredible library," Sailor Venus breathed in awe. "I can't believe that they have digital records of all recorded history here."
"Man, this would have blown Zoisite and Mercury's mind when or if they see this." Sailor Kunzite smiled.
"You said it," Sailor Venus nodded.
From behind, a sudden gasp was heard. Making the seven of them turn around in time to see Bailey running off.
"Bailey?" King Endymion called out.
"What's wrong?" Tuxedo Mask asked.
"Where are you going?" Luna and Artemis asked.
"I think that I heard something," Bailey called out. "And I need to see and confirm it with Sailor Pluto, right away."
"Something is wrong," Tuxedo Mask spoke. "I think that it has something to do with Chibi Usa."
"Let's go with her," King Endymion nodded as he agreed. Together, both King Endymion and Tuxedo Mask have started to follow the puppy.
"Hang on!" Sailor Turquoise spoke. "We're coming too."
Sailor Topaz nodded as she and Sailor Turquoise ran after Tuxedo Mask and King Endymion.
"Hey," Sailor Venus called out when Tuxedo Mask, King Endymion, Sailor Turquoise, and Sailor Topaz took off. "Wait for me!"
"No!" Tuxedo Mask called out. "You stay here! We'll be right back!"
"Kunzite, watch over Venus for us till we get back." Sailor Topaz called out.
"You got it," Sailor Kunzite replied.
Once Bailey, King Endymion, Tuxedo Mask, Sailor Turquoise, and Sailor Topaz were gone. Sailor Venus, Sailor Kunzite, Artemis, and Luna are now alone in the library. Suddenly, Sailor Venus burst into anger. "WHY DOES EVERYONE KEEP LEAVING ME BEHIND?!" Sailor Venus called out in anger.
"Mina," Sailor Kunzite spoke. "Please, calm down."
"CALM DOWN?!" Sailor Venus barked. "HOW CAN I CALM DOWN? BECAUSE THIS PROBLEM IS DRIVING ME CRAZY!"
"Uh..." Sailor Kunzite nearly lost her words as she stepped back a bit.
"Venus, Kunzite," Artemis called out. "Take a look at this. I think that we have found the right case file."
"Huh?" both Sailor Venus and Sailor Kunzite turned to the computer. Allowing the distraction of the case file cooled Sailor Venus off.
"You'll diffidently want to see this," Luna told them. Both Sailor Venus and Sailor Kunzite moved closer to see an image of a man on the screen.
"Death Phantom," Sailor Venus breathed.
"Never heard of him," Sailor Kunzite shrugged.
"He was considered as one of history's worst criminals," Artemis started. "He possessed the superhuman abilities of Evil Sight and Beast Hands. It also said that he signals handily destroyed the previously Crystal Tokyo and turned it into a city overrun by crime."
"But despite his abilities, Death Phantom was still human." Luna continued for him. "Thus, Queen Serenity couldn't bring herself to execute him..."
"Instead, she exiled him to Nemesis," Sailor Venus finished.
"That dark world seems to be involved with quite a few unfortunate events." Sailor Kunzite spoke. "Both past and present."
"I'm certain that none of this would be happening if not for Nemesis," Artemis spoke. "No one should have gone near that planet. Death Phantom has cursed it." Hearing those words leaves everyone speechless as cold winds have chilled through the air.
When Bailey, King Endymion, Tuxedo Mask, Sailor Topaz, and Sailor Turquoise ran towards the door that leads to Sailor Pluto's domain. Surprisingly, the door swung open with a greeting gust of wind blowing through the doors. Nearly picked Bailey by her feet. "Whoa," Bailey panicked.
"I got you," Sailor Turquoise held Bailey in her arms.
"Thanks," Bailey smiled.
"Pluto," King Endymion called out as he ran to Sailor Pluto's side. With Sailor Topaz and Tuxedo Mask right behind him.
"Uh..." Sailor Pluto slowly woke up. "My king..."
"This storm?" King Endymion spoke. "What's going on?"
"It's Small Lady," Sailor Pluto replied. "She went deep into space-time without her key and vanished."
"Chibi Usa..." Tuxedo Mask nearly jumped. "Has gone missing?"
"She maybe got caught in this storm," Sailor Pluto explained her theory. "It started a scenario where it felt her when she disappeared. Something terrible must have happened to cause such disturbance." Sailor Pluto debated to tell them about her vision.
"Oh, now I can see why Coronel Eve Barred hates time traveling." Sailor Topaz mumbled.
"Wait, you watch "The Librarians" series too?" Sailor Turquoise blinked.
"Huh, what?" Sailor Topaz blushed. "No. I mean...uh...maybe." Sailor Topaz got silent.
"Are you blushing?" Sailor Turquoise asked, concerned for her comrade.
"No," Sailor Topaz replied. "I'm not blushing."
"Oh, you are Topaz." Bailey smiled. "Your face is all red. Is this what it's called liking something the same thing with another?"
"Huh?" Sailor Turquoise blinked.
"Shut up, Bailey!" Sailor Topaz barked. Sailor Pluto and King Endymion look at each other, knowing something that sparks between Sailor Turquoise and Sailor Topaz. In silence, the group looks at the direction in which the wind is blowing.
"I have a feeling that something very powerful enough to tear the fabric of space and time." Sailor Pluto tried to explain. Before she could explain more, Tuxedo Mask's feet started to move on its own.
"Chibi Usa," Tuxedo Mask becomes worried. "She is out in this storm...alone." Slowly, he got up. "I'm going after her!'"
"Tuxedo Mask!" Sailor Topaz called out as she stood up when Tuxedo Mask fought the storm. "Hold on! I'll come too!" The Sailor Guardian of Loyalty and Trust began to follow him.
"Topaz!" Sailor Turquoise called out.
"Tuxedo Mask!" King Endymion called out.
"Come back!" Bailey howled.
"Don't go that way without a key!" Sailor Pluto called out. "Or you'll be unable to return!" As Tuxedo Mask and Sailor Topaz disappeared within the storm. Sailor Turquoise began to worry.
"Taylor," SailorTurquoise whispered as she stared blankly into the storm.
Meanwhile, back at Nemesis...
Usagi and Lily have been walking through the castle of the Black Moon Clan. However, some mysterious pressure has started to exhaust them to the bone. I wonder how long we have been here for, Usagi wondered as she and Lily continued walking through the halls. This Black Moon Castle...is like a labyrinth. No matter how far we walk, it would seem like we are just going around in circles. But we know that they are here. We felt them, I am sure of it. Usagi breathes a little. My friends, where are you? Mars, Mercury, Jupiter.
"Uh..." Lily nearly collapsed to her knees.
"Lily," Usagi panted a little.
"I'm okay," Lily replied. "Just need a moment to breathe."
"It is hard to breathe here, isn't it?" Usagi asked.
"A little," Lily nodded as she slowly stood up.
"Just let me know if you need to sit down or something," Usagi offered.
"I will," Lily nodded. "Thanks."
"Anytime," Usagi smiled as they continued to walk.
Exhausted to walk, both Usagi and Lily have stopped at the door. Panting to regain their breath. It's getting even harder to breathe, Lily thought. It feels like that all of our energy has been drained out of us. Before any of them could move, Usagi and Lily noticed two members of the Black Moon Clan were inside a room that they stood outside of the room.
"I heard that our Guardian prisoners are still accounted for," Rubeus stated. "I've even heard some strange energies have entered here as well with no sightings of them."
"Couldn't find proof of energy sighting when having entered, so let's ignore it." The blue-haired man that they hadn't seen before spoke. "However, the guardians were just bait for Sailor Moon and Sailor Earth. Now that my brothers have what they wanted, so we should just get rid of them."
"You're right, they should still be wasting away in the Dark Chamber," Rubeus sighed. "Why even keep them alive?"
We knew it, Lily thought.
We knew that they were alive, Usagi thought. But...
Where is the Dark Chamber even located? Lily wondered.
"Because none of us wants to go anywhere near the Dark Chamber that's why," the blue-haired male answered.
"Yes," Rubeus agreed. "It's a hostile territory. Some strange stuff has been going on down there. Has your little brother been performing some strange stuff down there recently?"
"Not that I am aware of," the blue-haired man answered.
So, he's Graphite's older brother too, huh? Lily thought.
"However," the blue-haired man spoke. "Danger seems to be around every turn."
"What do you mean?" Rubeus asked.
"Lately this whole place feels like it has a mind of its own and we're at its mercy."
"Maybe the lot of us are cannon folder and the planet's the one in command." Rubeus theorized.
"Probably," the blue-haired man nodded. Within a moment, Usagi and Lily's vision started to become a blur before they both collapsed which pushed the door open a little bit. Both the blue-haired man and Rubeus nearly jumped as they turned to the door.
"Saphire," Demande called behind from the door.
"Yes, Brother." The blue-haired man that is called Saphire replied as he walked out of the room. Leaving Rubeus alone to dismiss himself.
When Saphire walks towards the door, he notices that his older brother, Demande is holding the girl that is Sailor Moon in his arms while the one that is leaning against the wall is her future daughter, the Princess of the Earth. "Please pick up the future Neo-Queen Serenity's daughter for me?" Demande asked. "Our little brother would not like his new pet to be treated unkindly and not well cared for."
"Of course," Saphire agreed before he walked over to the Earth Princess. Gently picked her up and started to carry her. Saphire glanced briefly at Lil's face before following his older brother through the castle.
At another part of the castle, Demande and Saphire settled both Usagi and Lily down on a bench. "I don't know why our little brother wanted the Earth Princess as his bride instead of his pet." Saphire nearly sighed.
"Probably make the Earth to be connected to our kingdom so it will be accepted by the Black Maleficent Crystal." Demande theorized. "After all, she has a strange connection to the Earth."
"Perhaps you're right," Saphire nodded. "I better head back to the Core Chamber. I need to analyze the movement of its power."
"Understood," Demande nodded.
Saphire bowed to his brother and has been missed.
When Saphire had left, Demande walked towards the other bench. Sat down and watched the girls sleeping. Before thinking about moving, he heard Lily moan. Lily carefully sat up as Usagi was about to wake up. "You two have finally woken up," Demande was about to move towards them.
In shock, Usagi's eyes snap wide open in alert. "Stay back!" Usagi barked as she shielded Lily. "Don't touch us!"
"Relax," Demande spoke. "I have not made a touch. If I had to, my little brother would give me nightmares that will not even allow me to wake up."
"He tried to do with me from that before," Lily whispered.
"Huh?" Usagi turned to her.
"Details later," Lily spoke. "Right now is about finding our friends."
Usagi nodded as she understood. "What have you done to our friends?" Usagi asked with determination. "And tell us where the Dark Chamber is located!"
"None of that matters anymore," Demande told them. "Your friends are dead."
"Don't speak such a lie," Lily barked.
"We will not fall to any of your tricks," Usagi spoke. "They're alive!"
"And we felt it," Lily spoke as she and Usagi stood up. "Help us or not, we don't care or need of your hospitality."
"We will find them ourselves," Usagi yelled as she and Lily ran out of the room.
Hold it together Usagi, Usagi thought. You cannot die here. Not now, not yet. Not without seeing Mamo again and getting Lily out of this place. The girls continued to ran to find their friends.
While Usagi and Lily have been running, they have stopped in a room to take a breather. The Dark Chamber must be around here somewhere. Lily thought.
My friends... Usagi thought. Before leaving the room. Both Usagi and Lily noticed the room had one familiar figure standing in front of some strange purple energy source. Both Lily and Usagi stepped forward, hoping the figure was friendly and might help them. "What is that?" Usagi wondered as she looked at the pillar of light.
"Please come in, Future Neo-Queen Serenity and Princess Terabithia." The figure spoke as he turned to them slightly. "It's an honor to greet the beautiful ruler and princess of Crystal Toyko."
Usagi gasped in shock.
Lily gulped as she went to Usagi's side.
"I am Prince Demande's and Prince Graphite's brother, Saphire. Second born of the Royal Family of the Black Moon Clan. This here, is a chamber if the Core of Nemesis. The Black Crystal Core Reactor."
"The core's reactor?" Usagi asked.
Saphire remained silent as he nodded slightly. "This planet is sealed off," Saphire explained. "This reactor is the only way to the outside. You and your friends came through it to get here. Take a look for a moment to admire the Maleficent Black Crystal's power."
"Why?' Lily asked.
"Because it is indeed beautiful, but dangerous," Saphire replied.
"Explain please?" Lily asked.
I can start to see why my little brother likes her, sort of. Saphire huffed in thought. This reactor could melt down at any second now but without it. We would never be able to execute our grand plan." Saphire explained.
Their plan... Lily thought.
Is to rewrite Earth's history. Usagi blinked in thought.
"My brothers don't know how unstable it is," Saphire continued. "Nor does none of them understand the full extent of the danger it could cause. We forcibly accelerated the cores' fusion reaction without fully comprehending how it works."
"Sounds like a nuclear reaction from the Power Plants back on Earth," Lily spoke. "Back on Earth, they studied to keep it from causing the meltdown. But here, it seems that you don't have any studies for maintaining the core's power. It seems to cause it more deadly than Earth's meltdown would be from Nuclear Reaction."
"Worrisome, but in some way, yes." Saphire nodded. "Never knew that Earth could have faced the similarity as we have."
"You have no idea," Usagi shrugged.
"However," Saphire went back on track. "If the system collapses and the whole planet goes out of control, then I will not be surprised. In a way, Nemesis is much like my brothers. For instance, my younger brother, Graphite, is too dangerous. And my older brother, Demande, who is unstable. Two sides of a coin but on a similar measure. Their impulses have allowed their feelings or any emotions to cloud their judgment."
"Example?" Lily pointed at Usagi, who seemed to be confused.
"Example," Saphire sighed. "Attacking the Earth with the Maleficent Black Crystal was a rash decision and not part of our original plans. Your Majesty and your Highness, I beg your forgiveness."
Usagi gasped in shock with slight understanding.
Lily gulped a bit.
"We were dissolute and naïve," Saphire exclaimed. "Wiseman appeared with his ominous prophecies; he told us exactly what we wanted to hear. None of us should have ever set foot onto this accursed planet, but we followed him blindly. My little brother possessed similar properties as Wiseman does, so he was taken in as his apprentice."
Usagi covered her mouth in horror.
Lily slightly growled while she and Usagi held their brooches closer to them. Now that explains Graphite's abilities, Lily thought. However,...
Something is not right here, Usagi thought.
"My poor older and younger brothers," Saphire sighed. "The Maleficent black Crystal has a hold on them. They're possessed and they both didn't even realize it."
Usagi gasped as Saphire looked like he was in pain.
"I doubt anything can stop one of them now," Saphire spoke. "They've gone mad, it's too dangerous. But, for the sake of the future, the Earth, for all of us, for everything. Someone has to try." Saphire then looked at Usagi. "Future Neo Queen Serenity, will you be willing to help me?"
"You want my help," Usagi asked. "What do you mean? What can I do?" Suddenly, Saphire grabbed Usagi and pinned her down.
"Usagi!" Lily spoke in fright. Suddenly, some shadows grabbed her from behind. "Hey, let me go."
"Lily!" Usagi struggled.
"You can stop living," Saphire answered. "Maybe then my brother, Demande will realize that Sailor Moon isn't so special after all. Except for my younger brother, Graphite would use his magic to spare your eldest daughters' fate."
Both Usagi and Lily gasped in fright.
"My brothers and I had it all worked out," Saphire shook in anger. "We were going to stop the Moon Kingdom from ruling the Earth. The Black Moon was supposed to go to the past and rewrite history. That was the plan, but then you and your future daughter came along and started to ruin it separately. Ruining about everything." He glared a very cold stare at Usagi. "Demande has lost his mind and Graphite was about to have an interest for the first time. And it is all your fault."
"That's not true," Usagi cried out.
"You seem not to know anything about positive feelings and negative," Lily spoke.
"What?" Saphire barked.
"I mean," Lily struggled. "What if one or both of your brothers have a crush? That's a positive feeling. However, the negative impact is an obsession and that is disgusting."
"Disgusting," Saphire clutched his teeth. "You called my..."
"But do you have a crush on yourself?"
"What?" Saphire jumped.
"Is that why you are jealous and angry at Ma'tem?" Lily asked. "Is that because you can't express or take it out of one of us?"
"Be quiet," Saphire growled. "You know nothing. Nothing!" Suddenly, Lily's brooch has started to glow. Lily quickly opened her brooch, and the mirror showed her something unexpected.
(Inspired by the original "Sailor Moon" before "Sailor Moon Crystal" aired. Though that these two couple will still be together for the story before it got spiced up. Really like these two couple.)
"You did love someone once," Lily gasped. "But in a positive way."
"What?" Usagi nearly jumped.
"It's not just about your brothers, isn't it?" Lily asked. "It's about Petz, wasn't it?"
Saphire jumped. "How did you...?"
"The crystal showed me with the reflection of the mirror," Lily spoke. "You loved her and now she's gone. You want to take your anger out on one of us. Not just by stopping your brothers' obsession, but by having revenge. That is even worse."
"Shut up," Saphire spoke.
"You too need to stop; this isn't the way." Lily spoke, "Think about Petz if she still has a good conscious. This is not what would she have ever wanted."
"Shut up!"
"You can't take out on someone when you lost someone that you love because of something that can't be..." Lily tries to convince him to do something good for one. Without hearing pop has snapped within Saphire's temple.
"I SAID SHUT UP!" Saphire uses his power to push Lily as the shadows let her go.
Lily shouted in shock as she went flying. Lily hit the wall hard and collapsed to the floor.
"MOONFLOWER!" Usagi called out in worry and horror. With determination, Usagi kicked Saphire's balls.
Saphire yelped in pain as he held his boys. Usagi soon scrambled to her feet.
"Lily," Usagi ran towards Lily's side, who was struggling to sit up.
"Ma'tem," Lily nearly shed tears in pain.
"I'm here sweety," Usagi spoke to her calmly. "Let me see," Usagi carefully touches Lily's back.
Lily grunted in pain. Usagi quickly pulled back her hand to see her fingertips had been painted in bright red. "How...how is it?" Lily asked in pain.
"Your stitches must have been ripped off," Usagi spoke. She took the edge of the clothing from the dress that she wore. She quickly ripped it, slowly but carefully. Usagi has started to bandage Lily. "It might slow it down, but I promise that once we find our friends and get out of here. We will clean it up and sow it in the hospital, okay?"
Lily nodded as she wiped her tears away. Usagi tied the knot as gently and tight as she could.
"Eyer for an eye, huh?" Saphire chuckled painfully. "How ironic? But I might be scolded by Graphite for harming you, big time." Saphire groaned in pain as she got up. "But you Sailor Moon, a vile witch," Saphire growled. "You and that Silver Crystal of your wretched human history. But I can fix it right here, right now, with your death! With that, Petz will come back."
Is he right? Usagi wondered as she held the Silver Crystal to her chest. Is it my fault? Tears appear in her eyes. Did I somehow cause this? Am I, the one who destroys the future? Did I ruin everything that I worked so hard to achieve? Lily looks at her future mother from the past. Noticing how sad and torn for herself. Mamo, Moonflower, Moon Rose, Chibi Usa...were their futures destroyed because of me? Usagi wondered. Slowly, Lily touched Usagi's shoulder. Snapping her out of thought, Usagi look at Lily, who is smiling with care. Usagi's eyes widened as she felt Lily's energy converging with her own. No...it is not, Usagi smiled as her tears landed on the brooch. Suddenly, both the Silver Crystal and the Golden Crystal started to glow very brightly.
Saphire gasped in shock.
Meanwhile, in the Time-Space rift...
Tuxedo Mask and Sailor Topaz continue with their search while the storm is blowing strongly. Suddenly, a bright glow appeared from behind. Tuxedo Mask and Sailor Topaz turned to see before the glow disappeared. That light... Sailor Topaz wondered. Is that...
Usako? Tuxedo Mask wondered.
Lily? Sailor Topaz wondered before she and Tuxedo Mask continued with the search.
Back into the Black Moon Clan's Palace...
The light has started to blind Saphire as the Crystals glowed even more brightly. "What is this?" Saphire tries to cover his eyes. "Why can't I strike the future queen? Why can't I take a step forward?" Saphire stepped back while the light from the crystals engulfed both Lily and Usagi.
Within the area of darkness...
Both Wiseman and Graphite were meditating until the mysterious light reached their domain. "What incredible light?" Graphite gasped.
"It's bright enough to reach the furthest reaches of Space and Time," Wiseman gasped as well.
"You are right, Wiseman, Graphite," a mature female voice stated. "What you are seeing is the light of the Silver Crystal that belongs to Sailor Moon."
"For one crystal, it can't make it this bright," Graphite spoke. "There is a secondary light that belongs to my sister, the Golden Crystal."
"My..." Wiseman awed. "The crystals together of both original and inheritance must have become beautiful."
"Indeed," the female replied. "Beautiful and powerful. However, it seems that their true power has been sealed in those women all this time."
"Well," Graphite hummed. "Master, I suggest going to Nemesis to witness this event.
"Agree," Wiseman nodded.
"If you two are going to Nemesis for a closer look, then I'll be going with you." The woman spoke.
"Very well, Your Highness." Wiseman chuckled in delight. In the blink of an eye, both Wiseman, Graphite, and the woman figure are transported back to Nemesis and stay within the shadows so they can enjoy the show that they soon will witness.
Back on Nemesis, within the Core Chamber...
Within the light, Usagi and Lily have noticed something that is floating, standing above them. They look and see a familiar face. "Are you, who I think you are?" Usagi asked.
Neo-Queen Serenity nodded with a kind and encouraging smile.
"Mama," Lily gasped as she felt the urge to embrace her mother. Neo-Queen kneeled at her daughters' level. Place her hand onto her daughter's cheek. Feeling the warmth of Neo-Queen Serenity's hand, Lily held it with her hand with tears falling down her face. In the blink of an eye, Neo-Queen Serenity kissed Lily's forehead. Healing her birthright symbol upon Lily's forehead and healing her back. With the stitches falling from her back with the bandage. Leaving behind a scar on Lily's back with no pain or blood showing.
Once Lily's back is healed, Neo-Queen Serenity turns to her past self. "I'll do everything I can to take care of Moonflower for the time being," Usagi promised her future self.
Neo-Queen Serenity nodded as she understood. Slowly, Neo-Queen Serenity turned to the shadows; which were the ones who were holding Lily back. With one flash of light, the light from Neo-Queen Serenity destroyed them.
The shadow beings scream in pain as they have vanished. Neo-Queen Serenity disappeared as the light continued to glow.
"That light," Saphire gasped as he stepped back even further. "It's power... it..." Slowly, both Lily and Usagi stood up as they were glowing while their hair including Lily's ribbon was floating behind them.
"Don't you dare accuse Usagi or both of us of rewriting history when you and the Black Moon are the ones, who are doing that!" Lily ordered.
"And how dare you harm Lily with no consent for acknowledging the truth," Usagi added. "Well, no more! Because we have had it!"
"We will not allow you to manipulate time any longer!" Both Lily and Usagi spoke together with determination. "That is something that should never have happened in the first place!" Suddenly, the light sent Saphire flying backward with a cry of shock.
"I don't believe it," Usagi gasped. "We're overflowing with power like never before." Usagi and Lily shared a look. "If we try again, I'm sure that we can transform."
Lily smiled, "let's do it, U...no, Ma'tem." Lily agreed. "Together."
"Together," Usagi nodded. "MOON CRYSTAL POWER!"
"EARTH ROSE~CRYSRAL POWER!" Lily cried out.
"MAKE UP!" Together, Lily and Usagi transformed.

Lily's Transformation Description:
Lily held up the brooch as its lid opened, revealing a golden crystal within the center. As Lily waved her hand, the crystal sparkled with the hint of stardust then her fingernails turned light green and brown. Suddenly, the brooch began to float in mid-air; above Lily's head while it was suspended between her hands then she drew her hands down until the brooch is in front of her torso, where it has turned and affixed to her chest. Lily began to spin a few times before a pair of light golden wings then appeared on her back. Suddenly, her body was enveloped with a glow that turned into a leotard with the brown bow in the center along with the brooch clipped onto the bow. Suddenly, a light green collar appeared with three brown stripes. All of a sudden, her wings vanished as Lily raised her arms as the green and brown ribbons wrapped around them. Turning them into a pair of middle-lower arm-length white gloves trimmed in light green and brown piping. Suddenly, the green and brown ribbons began to wrap around Lily's legs and turned into a pair of green calf-high boots trim in brown that has a golden Earth symbol on top of them. Suddenly, a pair of dangling stars with Earth symbol earrings appeared on each of her ears. Suddenly, a green skirt appeared around Lily's waist with a light brown bow on the back. Suddenly, a small light green gem started to glow on top of Lily's forehead before turning into a silver tiara with a light brown gem right next to it. The tiara has some new details to it that are slight bronze color as the gem is surrounded with floral designs. Suddenly, a green with brown stripe choker appeared with a bright green jewel attached to it. Suddenly, Lily's ribbons glowed as her hairstyle remains until feather shape hairpins were attached to her ribbon. Lily smiled as she spun around and strike a pose in front of an image of Earth and the Moon with moonflower and rose in the background.
As Usagi and Lily transformed, they both glared at Saphire. "I'm a pretty guardian," Sailor Moon began. "Who fights for love and justice, I am Sailor Moon. In the name of the moon, I will punish you."
"I am a pretty guardian," Sailor Earth began. "Who fights for love and Sanctuary, I am Sailor Earth. In the name of the future Earth, I will fossilize you!"
"They transformed?" Saphire gasped in shock. "But how? The Maleficent Black Crystal is supposed to nullify all their energies." While Saphire was left with confusion, in a flash. Sailor Moon and Sailor Earth saw their friends and felt their energies within their minds.
"Did you feel them?" Sailor Earth asked.
"Yes, I did." Sailor Moon nodded with a gentle voice while both the Silver and the Golden Crystal were glowing brightly. In a mire of a second, Sailor Moon and Sailor Earth have placed their hands on the floor. "Where are you, our friends?"
"Show them to us," Sailor Earth added. Together, Sailor Moon's and Sailor Earth's sight went deep underground till the three Guardians and the Guardians of the Gems that are sharing their energies with their friends were shown. "There they are," Sailor Earth gasped.
"Mars, Mercury, Jupiter," Sailor Moon spoke.
"Jadeite, Zoisite, Nephrite," Sailor Earth added.
"We found you," both Sailor Moon and Sailor Earth spoke together. "Now it's time to wake up!" Within that moment, a pulse of energy went out from both of them before making cracks inthe ground.
Within the Dark Chamber, Jade, May, and Rue continued to transfer energy to Rei, Ami, and Makoto. Suddenly, a pulse of pure light has entered the room. As the pure light is illuminating into the room, Rei, Ami, and Makoto have started to wake up. Sailor Moon... Rei, Ami, and Makoto thought as they opened their eyes.
Sailor Earth... jade, May, and Rue smiled as they stopped transferring their energies to Rei, Ami, and Makoto. As the light is still illuminating, all six of the girls stand up as they look up.
"I can feel their powers," Rei stated. "They're close by."
"But we're stuck here," Ami reminded her. "How do we get out of here so we would be able to reach them? And how did you..." Ami turned to May.
"Details later," May spoke.
"But you are right Ami," Jade spoke. "We do need a way to get out of here."
"If you can hear us, Sailor Moon," Makoto called out.
"And Sailor Earth," Rue added.\
"Tell us what to do?" both Makoto and Rue called out.
"Transform girls," Sailor Moon's voice replied within the light.\
"You can do it," Sailor Earth added.
"We'll lend you a hand," both Sailor Moon and Sailor Earth called out as the light illuminated even brighter.
"Right," all six of them replied as they reached up towards the light. Letting the pure light and energy flow towards them.
As their energy has been purified, their energies become normal and allow them to become more ready than ever before. "MARS STAR POWER!" Rei cried out as she held out her pen.
"MERCURY STAR POWER!" Ami cried out as she held out her pen.
"JUPITER STAR POWER!" Makoto cried out as she held out her pen.
"JADEITE SWORD POWER!" Jade cried out as she held out her nail file.
"ZOISITE SWORD POWER!" May cried out as she held out her nail file.
"NEPHRITE SWORD POWER!" Rue cried out as she held out her nail file.
"MAKE UP!" All six cried out as they started to transform together.

Within the Crystal Palace; within the library, Sailor Venus and Sailor Kunzite are still researching with Luna and Artemis. Suddenly, both Sailor Venus and Sailor Kunzite felt familiar energies as if it is flowing throughout the castle. The crystal lanterns have started to illuminate even brighter. "Mars, Mercury, Jupiter," Sailor Venus mumbled. "Sailor Moon!"
"Jadeite, Zoisite, Nephrite," Sailor Kunzite mumbled. "Sailor Earth!" Sailor Kunzite turned to Sailor Venus. "They're returning soon."
"Huh?" Luna turned to Sailor Kunzite.
"What?" Artemis asked.
"Can't explain how I know," Sailor Kunzite shrugged. "But as a guardian who believes in faith, I just do."
"Uh..." Sailor Venus slightly gasped.
"So, let's go to the door of Space-Time to greet them," Sailor Kunzite offered.
"Alright," Sailor Venus nodded with a smile as she and Sailor Kunzite started to head towards the Door of Space-Time.
"Hey," Artemis called out.
"Wait for us!" Luna added as she and Artemis followed them.
Back within Nemesis; in the Black Moon's Castle, Sailor Moon and Sailor Earth have stopped glowing and stepped back from the cracked floor. Within a flash, the floor burst as six Sailor Guardians broke through the floor. "Sailor Moon," Sailor Mars, Sailor Mercury, and Sailor Jupiter smiled.
"Sailor Earth," Sailor Jadeite, Sailor Zoisite, and Sailor Nephrite smiled.
"You're okay," Sailor Moon and Sailor Earth smiled as the eight Sailor Guardians hugged each other.
Within the blink of an eye, Demande and Rubeus hurried into the room to find an unexpected sight. "That's..." Demande gasped. "Impossible!" Demande stated as Rubeus walked up while he helped Saphire to be stable.
"Yes," Saphire agreed while he stared at the Sailor Guardians. "But they all are as well."
"It's the power of the Legendary Silver Crystal and the future Golden Crystal," Demande stated. "Those powers of past and future are indeed exceptional just as he said." Demande quickly looks over his shoulder. "Wiseman!"
"Right here, my Prince." A figure spoke as it appeared.
"Sorry that we're late, brother," Graphite spoke.
"Apology accepted," Demande nodded, however, in the corner of his eye. Demande noticed a strange figure floating behind them.
The shadow figure giggled.
"What is that black figure behind them?" Saphire asked.
"I have no idea," Demande shrugged.
"I will have a bone to pick with you, Saphire. Within an hour till now," Graphite growled as he glared at his other older brother.
Oh shoot, Saphire felt his sweat go cold as he had trouble gulping a huge lump in his throat. He knows. Saphire looks back at the wall, where Sailor Earth's blood has been stained.
"Now that you all have witnessed the remarkable power of the Legendary Silver Crystal," Wiseman spoke.
"And the power of the Golden Crystal that inherited the Legendary Silver Crystal's power," Graphite added.
"Two stones that can unleash such powers," Wiseman continued. "It can come across the reaches of time and space. And overcome the negative energy of the Maleficent Black Crystal as though it we nothing."
"It's truly a sight to behold," Graphite smirked.
"What a fearsome power it processes," Demande spoke. "I can see why men would rage war for either of them. Why they wreak havoc and cause disasters." Before anyone could move, Sailor Moon's eyes started to glow along with the Silver Crystal.
"Open your eyes, Demande!" Sailor Moon called out with her voice sounded regal-like. "You are wrong!"
"Uh," Sailor Earth gasped. That voice...its...
"The Legendary Silver Crystal protects peace," Sailor Moon continued. "Its true purpose is to bring harmony and love." Suddenly, a figure standing beside Sailor Moon has appeared. As if they are speaking together with one voice. "If not for the misguided and evil actions of men like you, war itself might never have existed. All could have lived in peace! But, for you, peace was not enough. Are you so blinded by hatred?
"Can you see that the Maleficent Black Crystal is dangerous and you are missing it?" Neo-Queen Serenity asked as she spoke through her past self.
"Sailor Moon?" Sailor Mercury asked.
"No Ami," Sailor Zoisite shook. "That is not Sailor Moon at the moment."
"She's right," Sailor Earth nodded. "It's the future of herself, who is my mother...Neo-Queen Serenity."
"Your mother?" Sailor Mars nearly jumped. "Neo-Queen Serenity?"
"How much did we miss?" Sailor Jupiter asked.
"We'll explain everything once we get out of here," Sailor Nephrite spoke.
"Okay," Sailor Mars, Sailor Mercury, and Sailor Jupiter.
"Neo-Queen Serenity, I see far better than you think," Demande informed her. "Peace and harmony are nothing but an illusion. Fear and malice are the Silver Crystal's true legacy, which includes your eldest daughter's crystal: The Golden Crystal."
"The Golden Crystal?" Sailor Mars echoed.
"Details later," Sailor Jadeite spoke.
Sailor Mars nodded.
"As long as mankind desires it," Demande continued. "Those stones are the root of all evil."
"What a bunch of crap," Sailor Earth growled.
"Moonflower, language!" Neo-Queen Serenity scolded her.
"My apologies," Sailor Earth covered her mouth.
"The words you have spoken, my Prince, are all corrected and well spoken." Wiseman agreed with Demande.
"And you, Graphite." Neo-Queen Serenity spoke. "You will never have my eldest daughter's hand, not since you have allegiance with evil itself. You will never have her."
"We'll see about that," Graphite growled.
"You have already seen what the Legendary Silver Crystal can do and the Golden Crystal inherited for what they truly are. It is time for now to take them and crush them all. But leave Princess of the Earth to Graphite. He alone shall handle her."
"Understood," both Demande and Graphite nodded.
Both Saphire and Rubeus gasped in shock.
"Let's do it, brother," Graphite spoke.
Demande nodded.
The black shape behind Graphite laughed in delight.
"As long as we have our friends by our side," Sailor Moon returns to her true self. "With them by our side, nothing can defeat us!"
"And you are not getting the Legendary Silver Crystal, nor the Golden Crystal! Not now, not ever!" Together, the eight Sailor Guardians have started to glow.
"MARS BURNING MANDALA!" Sailor Mars launched her attack.
"JADEITE FROST-BURN REVOLUTION!" Sailor Jadeite launched her attack.
"MERCURY SHINE SNOW ILLUSION!" Sailor Mercury launched her attack.
"ZOISITE ALGAE RIVER RUSH!" Sailor Zoisite launched her attack. In the blink of an eye, Graphite summoned a shield and blocked their attacks.
Graphite grunted as he felt his shield cracking.
"JUPITER SPARKLING WIDE PRESSURE!" Sailor Jupiter launched her attack.
"NEPHRITE ELECTRIC ROSE VINEWHIP!" Sailor Nephrite launched her attack. With both attacks, Graphite's shield broke.
Graphite grunted in pain as thorns cut him deeply.
"Graphite!" Demande and Saphire gasped in worry.
"Ready?" Sailor Moon asked.
"Now," Sailor Earth nodded.
"MOON TWILIGHT FLASH!" Sailor Moon launched her attack as she conquered the light of the moon.
"EARTH MOONFLOWER SONIC RAY!" Sailor Earth launched her attack. In a quick move, Graphite summoned the shield again. But with both attacks, it destroyed it again.
Graphite growled.
"Floral steady girls," Sailor Earth commanded. "EARTH MOONFLOWER..."
"ZOISITE PINK..." Sailor Zoisite cried out.
"JADEITE RED..." Sailor Jadeite cried out.
"NEPHRITE YELLOW..." Sailor Nephrite cried out.
"ROSE SWORD DANCE!" Sailor Earth, Sailor Jadeite, Sailor Zoisite, and Sailor Nephrite launched another attack. As the attacks were launched, Wiseman swiftly blocked their attacks.
"Graphite!" Saphire went to his younger brother's side. Graphite nearly collapsed to one knee.
"I'm fine," Graphite grunted in pain. I defiantly going to need more training. Graphite thought.
"Now, Prince Demande!" Wiseman spoke. "Show them your evil sight."
"With pleasure," Demande nodded.
"Wait, brother," Saphire tried to stop Demande. But Demande ignored him. Suddenly, the eye from before appeared upon Demande's forehead and stopped the eight Sailor Guardians.
"I'm stuck," Sailor Moon grunted. "I can't move a muscle."
"Hurry, my Prince," Wiseman spoke. "Kill them all and take the Legendary Silver Crystal from Sailor Moon's dead body."
"If that happens, Sailor Earth will..." Demande is nearly confused.
"He's aware, brother," Graphite spoke. "Just do it."
Demande slowly nodded as he slowly understood what Graphite was planning so he began to do what he was told.
"You...listening to an advisor instead of being a true ruler," Sailor Earth spoke. "Some prince you are with no authorities, just like the Pharaohs of Egypt. Being a puppet to your advisor and all." Suddenly, a pop sounded from Demande's temple.
"You be quiet, you little..." Demande growled. Suddenly, the whole palace started to shake as the statistics from the reactor became violent.
"The reactor," Saphire gasped. "It's at a maximum critical level."
"How can that be?" Graphite grunted.
"The Silver Crystal and the Golden Crystal," Rubeus stated. "They are too close to the reactor and it has started to cause a sudden meltdown." In fear, he has started to run.
"Where are you going?" Graphite growled.
"Leaving," Rubeus replied as he exited the room. "I am not sticking around here to die like you."
"Coward," Graphite growl went even deeper.
"Graphite, calm down," Saphire spoke. In a blink of an eye, Graphite disappeared into the shadows. "Graphite!" Saphire looks around while everything continues to shake.
Meanwhile, in the hallway...
Rubeus was running when Graphite and Wiseman appeared in front of him. "Going somewhere?" Wiseman appeared right next to Graphite.
Rubeus grunted. "I'm leaving."
"You're not going anywhere," Graphite grabbed Rubeus's shirt.
"Let go, you twit." Rubeus pushed him away. "I have seen right through your camouflage, Wiseman. And I can see that Graphite agrees to be part of it."
Graphite growled as his eyes started to turn black.
"You two can't fool me," Rubeus retorted. "I know that you have another mission on the side. And I mean literally."
"Can I kill him now?" Graphite growled with a demotic tone.
"No," Wiseman spoke. "Save your strength, you need it for something else."
"Understood," Graphite nodded.
"So, fess up," Rubeus demanded. "Who are you, Wiseman? And what do you want?"
"Your time is now up," Graphite smiled wickedly.
"My queen," Wiseman spoke sweetly. "Go have your turn, tease him a bite."
"With pleasure," a woman's voice giggled. Suddenly, a black figure has started to distract him. "You are such a coward."
"What?" Rubeus jumped. "Who?"
"You," the voice replied. "Who else?" Suddenly, Wiseman reached out for Rubeus and grabbed him by the neck.
"Bye-bye," the figure waved.
"It's better if it is me than my apprentice," Wiseman spoke. "It is transformation has begun, and it is best if I do it before he could devour you." Wiseman's eyes glowed red underneath his cloak.
"Who...who are you?" Rubeus asked before he screamed as he was killed; turned to dust by Wiseman's hand.
"What a pathetic drag," Graphite growled.
"You said it," the voice agreed.
Wiseman chuckled as he, Graphite, and the figure disappeared without a trace.
Meanwhile, back into the Core Room...
The cracks upon the floor started to appear, slowly, Sailor Moon reached up to her tiara while Sailor Earth summoned a rose and moonflower in one stem. In one throw of Sailor Earth's flower, static hit Demande in shock. Demande grunted.
"Now," Sailor Earth struggled to nod.
"MOON TIARA BOOMERANG!" Sailor Moon launched her boomerang. Quickly, Demande dodges the attack as his third eye closes. In the blink of an eye, the girls started to move and the tiara returned to Sailor Moon. "Now's our chance," Sailor Moon told her friends. "We need to get out of here quickly."
"But Sailor Moon?" Sailor Mars asked.
"How do we get out of here?" Sailor Jupiter asked.
"We're trapped," Sailor Mercury spoke. "There's no way out."
"Don't worry," Sailor Earth spoke. "There is one."
Sailor Moon nodded as she reached up to her brooch. "Pluto, please...lend us your power." Sailor Moon prayed softly as a key appeared in her hand before standing up. Sailor Earth took out of her key too. "If we all use our powers together that should be enough to get back to Earth." Slowly, Sailor Earth stood up as Neo-Queen Serenity overlapped herself before Sailor Moon held out the key. "By the Power of Neo-Queen Serenity!" Sailor Moon cried out.
"For the Honor of Neo-Queen Serenity!" Sailor Earth cried out as she too held out her key. Suddenly, both keys started to glow brightly.
"Pluto, please help us to get back to Earth!" both Sailor Moon and Sailor Earth plead as the keys glowed even brighter.
Suddenly, Wiseman reappeared in frustration. "You're not getting away from me!" Wiseman moved to stop them. But it is too late. The eight Sailor Guardians disappeared without a trace. "Darn it!"
"Wiseman, the reactor!" Demande cried out. Suddenly, the room is filled with white light.
Meanwhile, in the land of between time and space...
Tuxedo Mask and Sailor Topaz kept on walking while the winds of the storm kept on blowing. "Chibi Usa!" Tuxedo Mask called out.
"Where are you?" Sailor Topaz called out.
Tuxedo Mask grunted as he gripped the two scepters tightly within his hand. "Usako, Moonflower," he spoke. "We need you., please. Lend us your strength. Help us find Chibi Usa." Tuxedo Mask remains silent as the wind becomes more violent.
"Tuxedo Mask," Sailor Topaz spoke. "We must turn back; the storm is getting more violent than before. We must regroup with the others and try to find her again."
Tuxedo Mask nodded. Before any of them could move. A sudden laughter echoed within the area.
"Huh?" Sailor Topaz kept her guard up as she and Tuxedo Mask looked over.
"Over here," a female voice spoke. "This way."
"Whose there?" Sailor Topaz called out.
"Come on," the female voice spoke again. "You're getting warmer." Suddenly, a figure that looks almost familiar has started to appear. "I'm over here."
"That feeling...is that...?" Sailor Topaz spoke.
"Usako? Chibi Usa?" Tuxedo Mask asked.
The figure laughed as she grabbed their arms and started to pull them up. In a dark flash, they disappeared without a trace into the storm.
At the Door of Space and Time...
While the storm still blowing, Sailor Venus, Sailor Kunzite, Luna, Artemis, King Endymion, Sailor Pluto, Sailor Turquoise, and Bailey are standing in the doorway of an open portal. Suddenly, the storm calmed down as a portal opened. Everyone gasped in shock. But within a blink of an eye, eight Sailor Guardians jumped out of the portal with smiles on their faces.
"You're all back!" Both Sailor Venus and Sailor Kunzite smiled brightly.
"Jupiter, Mercury, Mars, Sailor Moon," Sailor Venus nearly shed some tears.
"Nephrite, Zoisite, Jadeite, Sailor Earth," Sailor Kunzite added as she, Sailor Turquoise and Sailor Venus ran to them.
"We never lost hope," Sailor Turquoise spoke.
"Or faith," Sailor Kunzite added.
"We knew that we'd be together again," Sailor Turquoise smiled brightly.
"Moonflower," Bailey wagged her tail happily as she jumped out of Sailor Turquoise's arms.
"Hey, Bailey," Sailor Earth smiled. "Sorry to keep you worried."
"Like Kunzite and Turquoise said," Bailey hugged her. "Never lose hope or faith."
Sailor Earth hummed.
"Thanks for staying strong for us," Sailor Jupiter smiled.
"It's good to see you," Sailor Mercury added.
"How did you escape?" Sailor Venus asked.
"Neo-Queen Serenity helped us," Sailor Moon answered. "She shared some of her amazing powers with us. That is how we were able to transform and to escape."
"And Mama helped me to heal my wounded back," Sailor Earth added. "So, it no longer hurts."
"But do need some stretches," Sailor Moon retorted.
"Thanks for the reminder, Usagi." Sailor Earth narrowed her eyes at Sailor Moon.
"The help from the Neo-Queen is true," King Endymion spoke. "But it was not just hers alone." Everyone turned to him. "Your powers have helped to escape, top Sailor Moon and Moonflower. You both combined your powers and called upon your inner strength. You two have summoned the Silver and the Golden Crystals through space-time. Well, done. You two should be proud of yourselves."
Sailor Moon and Sailor Earth smiled brightly. Suddenly, the calm winds have changed to violent. In confusion, both Sailor Moon and Sailor Earth look around.
"Where's Chibi Usa and Tuxedo Mask?" Sailor Moon asked.
"Along with Sailor Topaz?" Sailor Earth asked.
"We don't know," Sailor Pluto replied. "Small Lady wandered off into space-time without a key and went missing. We do not believe that is what is causing this unusual storm."
"Went missing?" Sailor Earth echoed.
"But what about...?" Sailor Moon was about to ask.
"Tuxedo Mask and Sailor Topaz have rushed off into the tempest after them." King Endymion replied. "And neither of them has a key to return."
"They...WHAT?" Both Sailor Moon and Sailor Earth shouted in shock while the storm continued blowing violently.
Within the storm, a very dark cocoon is glowing as if it is in the rhythm of a heartbeat. "So she escaped," a demonic voice spoke from the cocoon. "No matter, I will have my revenge and claim my prize as history is fully rewritten." Suddenly, the cocoon has started to break. "Be on the lookout, Sailor Earth. Taste the last moments of freedom with Sailor Moon. Because I will be coming for you and your pathetic crystal."
