She was a bit late today. Her after hours studying went on longer than she had anticipated.
She was enjoying the peaceful walk home when a siren coming up from behind her broke the silence.
She turned to her side to see a fire truck fly by her. She stared into the distance to see a pillar of smoke in the distance.
Ami knew that the firefighters were capable, but she wanted to be sureā¦
She knows how dangerous fires can be.
She dashes off. Her henshin in her hand, ready to do what needs to be done.
Beyond the boundaries of your city's lights.
Stand the heroes waiting for your cries.
She came up to the fire. It was just a suburban house, a family's house, and all of there possessions in it.
She turned to hear a mother's worried scream. Screaming that her child was not out of that fire. Ami's heart began to punish her chest.
She knew what she had to do.
So many times you did not bring this on yourself,
When that moment finally comes, I'll be there to help.
Ami quickly ducked into a place where she could not be seen and held her henshin high.
She transformed into the heroine that she was. Sailor Mercury.
On that day, when you need your brothers and sisters to care.
I'll be right here.
Sailor Mercury took off running, right past the barricade that was hastily set up.
"Hey, you can't be-"
Sailor Mercury ignored the officer's words, and she turned to the mother.
"Don't worry ma'am," She said as she pressed the button on her tiara to bring her visor down, "I'll save your child."
She ran into the inferno, scanning the house as she ran to it.
Citizen Soldiers, holding the light for the ones that we guide from the dark of despair.
Sailor Mercury had located the child by scanning the house, and wasted no time to get to her. She ran as fast through the burning building as she could.
An explosion erupted from the wall next to her, and sent her flying into the wall. She staggered to her feet, knowing that there was no way that she could stop now. She took off running again, and this time made it to where the child was. She quickly went to the child, who was coughing from the smoke. Sailor Mercury picked the little girl up into her arms, and held her protectively against the flames, she felt the little girl hold tighter in response.
Standing on guard for the ones that we shelter.
She leapt out of the window, knowing that she would survive the fall unharmed, to safety below.
We'll always be ready because we will always be there.
