(I don't own sailor moon (I wish))
Chapter 1: Sparkle
It had been almost 3 weeks since Seiya's departure and Usagi sat on the park bench swinging slowly back and forth looking at the ring mamoru had given her, it was night time and the large white moon's gentle light shone down on the city and on its princess who looked at her ring admiring it glittering in the moonlight. She sighed remembering the day mamoru had given it to her
"I love you uksa-ko"
Mamoru's words echoed in her mind as she stopped her swinging, she closed her eyes and felt the cool nights breeze blow her hair around her as she thought about the last few weeks. The sailor senshi had grown apart, with no more evil to fight they had no more reasons to see each other, Ami had begun spending a lot of her time doing after school club activities or more recently hanging out with Greg who had just moved back to town. Since Rei went to another school Usagi didn't see her much unless she went to visit the shrine and then Rei was always too busy to hang out. Mina was busy with idol auditions and had just found a manager who was helping her get puplicity and stat recording her first song which she had promised to be a huge hit. But there was the other set of words that had been ecoeing in her mind for 2 weeks "I'm moving Usagi" Mako's word still hung in her thoughts. Mako was leaving, the sailor scouts would not be complete with out Jupiter there fighting next to them. But then she remembered there really was no more fighting the world wwas at peace. They had all tried to transform but it didn't work, Luna had told them that there wands would only work if they felt an evil energy. And worst of all, she felt as though she and her mamo-chan were drifting apart, nothing had been the same after the final fight against galaxia. He had become more distant and rarely said I love you to her and when he did the words were empty even forced , but what made it worse was that she could here the same emptiness in her voice when she said it too. And then there was Seiya, she remembered him leaving and felt stupid for letting him leave like that 'we'll be friend forever' seriously it had take3n her 2 hours after he left to get what he had said. She didn't realize how much she would miss him, he had become the spark in her life with Mamoru gone and her day seemed empty with out him. She opened her eyes and looked up at the starry sky. "I hope your alright, Seiya"
/scene change/
Fighter was walking down the long hallway in front of Healer and Maker , at the end of the hall was a narrow door that stretched all the way to the ceiling. On the door was a sign written in the kakyuu language 'royal quarters, do not enter without authorization' the princess had called them to her chambers urgently she had news for them that had to be given to them in person. Two guards in heavy armor stood at the door with their spears crossed in front of the door. They withdrew their spears when they saw the starlight's approach. Without a word they pushed aside the heavy door with ease and walked in. They bowed at the sight of their princess who was waiting for them.
"you called for us princess? Fighter asked looking up at her.
"Please friends, there is no need to bow before me." kikuyu said sweetly motioning for them to stand up.
"But you're our princess." Healer said looking up at her.
"I wish to be only be known to you as a friend." she said walking over to healer and motioning for her to get up too. They obeyed and stood up. "forgive me, but you still haven't answered my question." Fighter said.
"Ahh yes I have some rather interesting news for you all." Kakyuu said walking over to an open window and letting the cool nights air blow over her skin.
"Do you remember Lover and Striker?" she asked them still facing away from them. A wave of saddness swept over them as she said their names. The starlights hung their heads.
"Yes of cause princess." they all said at once.
"I'm sending you on a new mission, I'm sending you all back to Earth." all the starlights heads jerked up, it was unexpected, even though they longed for earth they never thought they were going back.
"I know that you all left a part of your hearts on earth so that is why I'm sending you but also just before we left earth the first time I felt Lovers energy, it was so faint I thought I had imagined it but I felt it again yesterday, it was really strong, so strong it reached us from earth. That is the other reason you are going back, the starlights are broken, you must find Lover and Striker to complete the starlight circle. You will begin singing again but with a different message, so that Lover and striker will be drawn to you." the princess finished still looking at them thy stood shocked, speechless. Lover and Striker were alive? "do you accept your new mission?" princess kakyuu asked looking in to fighters eyes.
"we accept" all the starlights said at once.
"you leave immediently, ill call your familys, cancel any plans you had and make arrangements for you on earth. I want you to continue singing but this time I want you to send a message to your lost starlights, even if they have no memories of there lives here, they should still be drawn to you." the princess said walking them over to the balcony.
"thank you princess, we'll keep you informed." fighter said "thank you starlights, and good luck" princess kakyuu said just before they shone brightly and flew up to the night sky as shooting stars.
