Episode 201: Peace At Last, But For How Long?



Sixteen year old Usagi Tsukino was walking home from school with a piece of crumpled up white paper in her hand. Usagi was mummering and the more she murmmered the tighter her grip got on the white sheet of paper. Usagi walked slower and slower as she neared her home, but in her eyes it was a haunted house.

Usagi: *looks at the house and sees a dark cloud over it* Oh! Why didn't I study for that test. Mom is going to ground me and dad is going to nag me about how I am becoming a young woman and that I need to improve my marks if I want to get into a good college. Why! Why! *Sighs* I might as well get this over with...

Usagi walked into the house and soon discovered that she was the only one home. Even Luna was out! Usagi found a note on the counter explaining her mothers absence. She walked into the Family Room and turned the T.V on as she waited for her mother to return from her outing. Usagi, getting tired of watching the news, fell asleep on the couch. When she awakened she found a man wearing a prince's uniform smiling down at her.

???: So your up my dear.

Usagi's eyes were out of focus and couldn't actually make out the mans face, she could only see his outline and strangely enough his gorgious smile.

Usagi: *whispering* Mamoru...Mamo-chan, is that you?

???: *chuckles* I don't know who this Mamoru person is but he better not be trying to steal you from me! *leans to kiss Usagi*

Usagi: AHH! *bolts up from the couch and looks around* What the? Huh?!

After a couple minutes Usagi finally came to a conclusion-it was a dream. She looked around just to make sure, it was a dream alright. The door opened and and closed and Usagi saw her mother's smiling face over enter the kitchen.

Ikuko: Oh konnichiwa Usagi dear. How was school. *setting brown bags on the table*

Usagi stopped thinking about the dream and remembered her F test. She became panicked and tried to trick her mother into thinking she was still asleep. She started snoring loudly for her mother to hear but Ikuko knew her daughter to well.

Ikuko: *stern* Usagi! I know you are not asleep. I know today you had a Math test, now I want to see your test grade.

Usagi: *nervous laughter* Oh that, it totally slipped my mind...hehe.

Ikuko: USAGI TSUKINO!

Usagi: *hiding her face from her mother* It's in my suitcase.

Ikuko: *goes and pulls out the crumpled peice of paper and studies it* Oh Usagi! This is the worst grade I have seen yet! Don't you study at those Study Sessions your friends have? Don't you? Usagi until you improve those marks I'm afraid your grounded-once AGAIN! No more sweets, you can only stay out on weekends, and I want you to go to the library with Ami! Everyday for an hour I want to see you march out that door to the library ready to learn.

Usagi: *sighs* Hai mother.

Ikuko: What am I going to do with you? *shakes her head* Well I better go and maker dinner. And I want you to get to work on your homework, now!

Usagi: *walks up to her room* 'It's not fair, me and school just don't mix.'

Voice: Don't worry about that Usagi, all you have to worry about is your future.

Usagi: *freaking out* Wha?! W-who said that?!

-Silence-

Usagi: *turns pale* It's-it's a ghost! The house is full of ghosts! I live in a haunted house! AHHHH! *runs into her room and locks it*

Usagi started breathing hard just as she saw a black cat leap from outside and onto her windowcell. Usagi, being as parinoid as she was thought that it was a shadow and started screaming. The black cat who had just returned from her night out on the town grew wide eyed as her owner screamed in terror.

Luna: Usagi! What ARE you screaming about?

Usagi: *calming down* Oh it's you Luna. *scoops her into her arms* Luna, this house is full of ghosts! *starts explaining about the mysterious man*

Luna: *squirming out of Usagi's arms* Usagi calm down! You were just imagining things, I told you to be careful about what you eat.

Usagi: *yelling* I didn't eat a thing since lunch hour at school...

Luna: That could also be a problem...

Usagi: Hm! Why don't you believe me?

Luna: Because ghosts dont' exist.

Usagi: I thought that monsters didn't either but...

Luna: *sighs and stretches on Usagi's bed* Alright alright. Maybe you aren't imagining things. Just...keep an eye out for anything unusual.

Usagi: *smiling* Hai!

It had been five months since any of the girls had heard anyone even mention the name 'Three Lights'. Everyone missed them, their life just didn't seem complete with them. Rei and Yuuichirou and started dating, although they didn't get to go out often because Rei's grandfather was getting sick most of the time leaving Rei worried about his health. Mamoru forgot about going to Harvard in America and got in easily to a college in Tokyo. Minako was becoming a good cook thanks to Makoto but she wasn't her usually cheerful self, sometimes she would just space out, she could be right in the middle of a sentence then she would stop what she was saying and go into her own world. Her friends were worried about her. Ami was still her straight A student self but she didn't study as much, she would rather read a book on stars than on Medicines. Makoto usually spent her time cooking and reading romance novels. On the weekends she would travel down to a Orphange and cook for the little children, it made her feel good to see their smiling faces. Usagi was still her clumsy, ditzy self. Although she would bring up the name 'Seiya' to often. Only her friends knew about Seiya's true feelings towards her, Usagi just thought her and Seiya were good friends, everyone else-including Mamoru knew otherwise. There had been no attacks from any new creature or enemy thank goodness. Hotaru Tomoe had grown back to her full size three days after the StarLight senshi had left. Setsuna would occasionally go back to the Time Gates to make sure everything was at rest but she would usually wear a worried expression when she did go. Luna knew that Usagi missed Seiya a lot, but wasn't sure if their were any extra feelings. Usagi laid down on her bed and looked at her ceiling. A week after the StarLights returned to their home planet Usagi had talked her parents into painting her ceiling to make it look like a midnight sky.

Usagi: Luna, do you miss them to?

Luna: The StarLight senshi? Well yeah, sometimes I do miss them but you must face that they may never come back. They came to this planet in search of Princess Kakyuu, now they have found her and they are happy on their planet to be with her.

Usagi: *pouts* I would be happy if they were here with me...

Luna: *looks at Usagi with sad eyes* Usagi-chan...*smiles* Usagi, have you talked to Mamoru-san lately?

Usagi: *rolls over on her stomach* Iie, he is usually to busy with college and work, I barely see him anymore...

Luna: Don't worry Usagi, you'll see him sooner or later, probably this weekend even.

Usagi: Hai, I suspose. Luna, how do you think Kinmoku looks? I wish I could go.

Luna: *sighs* 'That's all she wants to talk about is Three Lights, she doesn't even care about her own boyfriend. I think..she may be falling in love with Seiya Kou.'

Usagi: Luna...Luna? Are you alright?

Luna: *shakes her head* Wha?

Usagi: I asked you what you think Kinmoku looks like and all you did was stare with you mouth open. Whats up?

Luna: Nothing, nothing. Just lost in thought.

Usagi: *looking at the stars* I think Kinmoku is a beautiful planet, with gardens everywhere you turn, the castle has to be the biggest, and most amazing building to look at..

Luna: Usagi? What do you think of Seiya?

Usagi: What do you mean? *looks confused*

Luna: What was Seiya to you?

Usagi: *smiles* He was my best friend. No secrets were kept between us, we always had fun together, and we could understand each other. Why?

Luna: *shakes her head* I just...I was just curious.

Usagi: *yawns and stretches* I better get to work on my homework before momma has a fit.

Luna: Okay, I'll leave you in peace. *walks out of the room* 'Usagi is falling in love with Seiya and isn't even knowing it.'

(Kinmoku-The Court Yard)

Sailor Star Fighter was sitting on a bench enjoying the beautiful atmosphere. Her thoughts were interuppeted by the sound of an animal nawing on something. Fighter moved some shrubbery out of her way to get a good look of what was making that sound. Fighter found a little white rabbit eating a leaf. Fighter picked up the rabbit and rocked it slowly in her arms. Silent tears fell down her face as she remembered one very special girl.

Fighter: *forces a smile* I wonder what Odango is doing, right now. She and her friends are probably talking about her upcoming marriage with Mamoru. *more tears fall down her face* She was one special girl, I hope Mamoru knows that.

A hand placed it's self on Fighter's shoulder and gave her a reassuring squeeze. Fighter turned around to see her princess, Princess Kakyuu. She wore a serious expression, she sat next to Fighter and hugged her.

Princess Kakyuu: You miss the Moon Princess a lot. I can tell. She was something special to you wasn't she?

Fighter: *sighs* Hai...but she already had her boyfriend...

Princess Kakyuu: Fighter listen. I hate to see you acting like this. It hurts me. I have news for you Fighter.

Fighter: *looks up* What is it?

Princess Kakyuu: The peace won't last long...

Fighter: What? A new enemy has come to Kinmoku? *jumps up*

Princess Kakyuu: *shakes her head* Not here, this planet is safe. But Earth...

Fighter: *looks up with wide eyes* Nani?

Princess Kakyuu: Hai. A woman came to my throne room yesterday. She had just escaped from the planet Kika. It appears that a strange woman is going around conquering planets, she burned everything that was in her way. After the woman explained to me what happened I immediatly tracked her down, to see where she would strike next. E..Earth is her next target.

Fighter: I have to go back!

Princess Kakyuu: *nodding* Yes, we are all going in fact.

Fighter: You to?

Princess Kakyuu: Hai! I will do my best to be of aid to them.

Healer: *walking up to them* Princess...we are all ready.

(Next Day-Hikawa Temple)

Usagi: Blech! *kicks a rock* I'm grounded again!

Ami: *shakes her head* I know Usagi-chan, your mother called me and told me yor punishment.

Rei: Usagi, why don't you ever try and study. Then maybe you wouldn't be grounded so many times.

Usagi: Hey! It's a conspiracy, school doesn't like me.

Makoto: I think it's the other way around.

Yuuichirou: *peeking over the corner* Rei-chan! Your grandfather...he needs his medicine I believe. He isn't doing well.

Rei: *looks worried* Thank you Yuu-chan. I'll be back in a minute you guys. *runs into the temple*

Ami: I hope Rei's grandpa is doing better. He hasn't been the same.

Usagi: Yeah, I wonder whats wrong with him.

Makoto: Ami-chan, maybe you can figure out whats wrong. It would be good training for you, since you want to become a doctor and all.

Ami: *blush* I haven't been practicing medicine lately...

Usagi: Ami-chan...*notices Minako* Minako-chan? Whats wrong?

Minako: *snaps out her dream* Oh wha?

Makoto: Minako...you've changed a lot. I miss the old, I'm-Always-Cheerful, Never-Doubt-Me, Minako.

Minako: *sighs* I think that Minako is on vacation...

Usagi: *worried* Then what Minako are you?

Minako: I'm the, I-Can't-Live-Without-Yaten, Minako. *tears form in her eyes*

Ami: Oh Mina-chan, please don't cry...we all miss them.

Usagi: Yeah, Luna even misses them.

Makoto: Do you miss them Usa-chan?

Usagi: Yes, more than anything.

Rei: *walking back outside* Or do you just miss Seiya Kou?

Usagi: Huh?

Rei: Do you miss them all or just Seiya.

Usagi: I miss them all Rei-chan! You know, Luna asked me the same question last night.

Minako: I wonder what they are doing now.

Usagi: So do I...

???: AHHH!

Minako: No way!

Usagi: Not again.

Ami: Minna! Henshin yo!

Moon Eternal....

Mars Crystal Power...

Venus Crystal Power...

Mercury Crystal Power...

Jupiter Crystal Power...

MAKE-UP!

(Park)

???: Energy! I want all of her energy! *evil laughter*

Sailor Moon: Stop!

???: Nani?!

Sailor Moon: We are the five pretty senshi no ai (pretty soldiers of love), Sailor Moon!

Mars: Sailor Mars.

Jupiter: Sailor Jupiter

Venus: Sailor Venus

Mercury: Sailor Mercury!

???: Hm...so this planet has Sailor Senshi huh? Let's see what you have!

The unconsious woman next to the new enemy stood up, her eyes flickered then turned black. She lunged at Jupiter but Sailor Jupiter was faster and easily got out of the way. The woman fell to the ground and had a few scratches on herself.

???: *smirk* Impressive.

The woman stood infront of Sailor Moon and head butted her in the stomach. Sailor Moon went crashing into a tree trunk.

Sailor Moon: Owie!

Mars: Sailor Moon, get up! *turns to Jupiter* Jupiter!

Jupiter: Hai! *cracks her knuckles* Jupiter Oak...Evolution!

The woman fell to the ground twitching. The enemy smiled once again and waited for the senshi to attack her little pawn again.

Sailor Moon: Silver Moon, Crystal Power Kiss!

The woman found herself face to face with a bright and warm light. She screamed in pain as it crossed over her. The senshi knew that the woman would go back to normal and turned their attention to the new enemy. The enemy was a girl about the age of 18 and had long sky blue hair done in a ponytail. She wore a white shirt and a long sky blue skirt with white, sparkly heals. On her forehead their was a blue oval.

???: So, that was impressive. I'll have fun defeating you in combat. You won't be as easy as most guards. *points her finger at Sailor Moon* Black Water Rapids!

???: Star Serious...Laser!

The attack by the enemy was canceled out by the other attack. The five senshi turned around with wide eyes. They were each holding their breath hoping that it would be who they thought it was.

Enemy: Wha?

Fighter: Penatrating through the darkness of night...

Maker: The air of freedom breaks through...

Healer: We are the 3 sacred shooting stars...

Fighter: Sailor Star Fighter.

Maker: Sailor Star Maker!

Healer: Sailor Star Healer!

StarLights: Sailor StarLights, Stage on!

Sailor Moon: *happily* SAILOR STARLIGHTS!

Enemy: *smiling* More Sailor Senshi huh? Well you shouldn't be so hard to defeat. I, Sky Blue, general of Queen Kumo (means cloud)! Demo since I have to go and talk to the queen I'll be going now! Ta ta! *jumps onto a black cloud which disappears*

Sailor Moon: *tears in her eyes* StarLights! *hugs the three of them*

Jupiter: Minna. Let's detransform before we cause a crowd.

Minna: Hai!

~Detransform~

Rei: *hugging the three boys* You guys! We've missed you so much! Why are you three back? Shouldn't you be with you princess?

The senshi heard a giggle, they looked around everywhere to find the source but couldn't. The three boys grinned at each other.

Yaten: But we are with our princess.

Taiki: We wouldn't leave her home alone.

Seiya: It's to dangerous.

Minako: *looking around* Kakyuu-hime? She is here with you? Where is she?

The three boys moved away from each other and the girls found themselves face to face with teh princess of Kinmoku.

Kakyuu: *smiling* Konnichiwa minna-san.
