When the starlights had returned from earth, things had been extremely tense between Healer and Fighter. The two were always fighting about the moon princess. Healer was mad that their leader had selfishly fallen for the senshi of the moon and insisted that she had been more focused on her then finding her princess. Fighter was mad that Healer didn't understand her love for the blonde girl and was hurt that she thought she'd forgotten about her princess. These fights were constant and would last for hours, screaming and constant back and forth name calling.

Maker was always the one to break things up. After enough time had passed she'd intervene and force her comrades to separate. She would check in on both of them and let them vent to her. She understood Healer's frustration, after all their princess was supposed to be their number one priority and the fact that Fighter spent so much time focusing on and trying to protect Usagi instead of focusing more on the mission was indeed selfish in some regards. Even though all three of them thought the moon princess was worth protecting, she was not their first priority. That was the job of the inner and outer senshi of the solar system, not theirs.

But at the same time she also saw Fighter's point of view. Fighter was in love and she cared about Usagi. She wanted to protect her and see her happy. She wanted her teammates to understand that. Their princess was still her first priority but the moon princess was a close second in her heart. Maker couldn't blame her for being in love. It was a natural emotion after all.

If it wasn't for Maker, the palace would've been a constant war zone between those two but she managed to keep things semi-civil. Thanks to her there were some moments of peace and quiet although it never lasted for very long before one of the other two starlights would say something and set the other on a big rampage.

She was the peacemaker of the palace although more often then not she felt like their mother, constantly breaking up squabbles and trying to make them feel better.

Yes Maker was the glue that held the broken pieces together. Well until one day.

It had been an unusually quiet day at the palace, Maker and Fighter were standing guard at the front entry while Healer guarded the back. Everything appeared normal at the time.

All of a sudden a large shadowy figure appeared near the entry. Fighter ran off to grab Healer, and Maker readied her star yell preparing to attack at any sudden moment.

As the figure grew closer, Maker attacked him but it went straight through him. He kept getting closer and each of her attacks were missing him. Fighter and Healer hadn't made it back and she could vaguely hear them yelling at each other at the back. She prayed that they'd stop fighting and get there to help her fight this creature.

She fired another attack but it missed again, giving the creature enough time to grab Maker right as Healer and Fighter appeared.

The creature let out a low laugh and suddenly disappeared in a blast of light.

Fighter fell to her knees on the ground in disbelief, her eyes sparkling with tears. "Maker?" she asked quietly, still not believing what she had just witnessed.

"This is all your fault Fighter!" Healer screamed at her, tears falling down her own cheeks.

Her leader glared up at her. "My fault?" she barked. "You're the one who chose to pick a fight!" she yelled.

"What's all this yelling about?" a gentle voice asked.

The two starlights turned around to see their princess standing there. A look of confusion on her face as she looked around. "Where's Maker? I heard her attack several times but she's not here."

Fighter sighed and stood up. "Some creature appeared and captured her. Me and Healer didn't get here in time because we began fighting. Gomenasai hime." she said, casting her gaze down to the ground in shame.

Healer sighed as well and also focused her gaze on the ground. "Hai, gomen."

Kakyuu let out a gentle sigh. "Oh you two." she said softly, shaking her head. "Well our only option now is I need you two to go out and search for her."

"Nani?"

"We don't even know where to start looking for her."

"That's why you must travel all across Kinmoku to find her. She has to be here somewhere. I believe in you two. Go pack some stuff and get ready for your journey. Also bring disguises as you don't want attention from the media."

The two starlights both fell on their knees and bowed their heads. "As you wish hime." they both said in unison.

The red haired princess smiled at them and planted a kiss on each of their heads. "I know you'll be able to find her." she whispered before walking back inside.

The solders got up from their position and headed back inside each to their separate rooms. They each detransformed and put on disguises before leaving. Seiya put on a short black dress and pulled all her hair up into a bun. She put white sunglasses on and tall brown boots. It was not her style at all but that's what made it a good disguise. She grabbed her bag of stuff and went out into the hallway to wait for Yaten.

When Yaten came out, she had to stifle a laugh. Her silver hair was tucked away underneath a black baseball cap that was turned backward paired with dark sunglasses, an over sized grey sweater and baggy blue jeans.

Yaten shot Seiya a glare through her shades. "I know you think I look ridiculous Seiya but you also look incredibly stupid so I wouldn't laugh if I were you." she hissed, causing Seiya to go quiet.

Kakyuu greeted them at the palace doors, a small smile on her face as she said farewell to them. Her two soldiers bowed once again before leaving, setting forth into their world in search of their friend.

Hopefully they'll make it out alive.
