" Who are you?" Usagi questioned the strange girl standing before her. She stood, shivering in her pajamas with Luna sitting by her side. Luna was visibly frustrated for not detecting the intruder. In the dim light of her bedside lamp, Usagi glanced at her alarm clock, which read three o'clock in the morning. Usagi shuddered; she wished she were asleep and warm in her bed. Luna looked towards the visitor and narrowed her drowsy eyes. The maiden wore a thin, pale golden dress that sparkled even in the hazy light. Made of the same fabric, wide ribbons wrapped her arms, identical to the ones around her legs. The skirt of the dress was loose and blew softly in the slight chill. She wore no shoes; the leg ribbons end by wrapped around her feet. Even more amazing was her delicate face, framed by long, milky silver locks of hair. He bullion eyes comported her hair, and had the effect of making both Usagi and Luna's throats clench, as if they were going to cry. In the middle of her forehead, a clear diamond in the shape of a star glistened. A sliver of gold lined the gem. The entire potency of her could make one faint.
"Forgive me." The visitor said, snapping to a pose similar to a soldier. " I must introduce myself. I am Hisho Denreisha." She stated formally with a salute. " Star Messenger.." Usagi murmured and turned to Luna. " I have never heard of you!" Luna exclaimed, eyeing the supposed messenger. " Please, Luna and your Highness, call me any name you like." She kneeled down and bowed her head. "Please, call me Usagi!" Usagi said in a cheerful tone. She couldn't sense any bad energy from the girl, so she saw no harm in being friendly. Luna apparently felt the same." Where do you come from, Denreisha?" Hisho looked up and said," I descend from the 30th century, carrying an important message for the future queen from the, err, queen." Usagi played with her hair, thinking to herself for a moment. " Could you tell me what it is?" she asked. Hisho bit her lip. " It's a bit more complicated than that."
" As the Star Messenger, I travel through space, and sometimes time, in the form of a shooting star to deliver messages for the queen. I reside in Crystal Tokyo, as Neo Queen Serenity's personal emissary. To keep messages safe from the potential of intercepting enemies, I am only given brief instructions to get closer to the message. The actual message is locked up in here," she tapped the jewel star," until there is a trigger, which only the queen knows. I don't have a clue what it is, except of course, that it involves you." Usagi asked," Why didn't I see you when we were fighting the Black Moon?" Hisho winced and shifted her feet. " I was in one of those comas." Luna nodded and Usagi sighed. " What is it Usagi?" Luna said, looking up at her princess in concern. " All the Sailor Scouts wont be happy with me unless they get to know this important thing too, so you're going to have to wait to tell me in the morning!" she said, and flopped down on the bed.
Hikawa Shrine
All the Sailor Senshi, were gathered together in the back, near the cherry trees. " What is this all about Usagi?" Hotaru, Sailor Saturn, asked, sitting beside Makoto Sailor Jupiter. The group murmured in similar remarks, and in the tree closest to them, Hisho quivered in the bathrobe Usagi lent her to keep warm in the frosty morning. She had never recited instructions in front of so many important people! She turned and heard Usagi recount the events from the previous night. " She came in the window and you didn't know?" Ami pondered, holding a hand to her face. " Why should we believe her? Rei bombarded Usagi, completely suspicious of the new comer. " Reeeeiiiii! Can you feel any bad energy? You're the physic!" Rei whispered to herself," That is true.." Hisho decided it would be a good time to make an appearance. She floated down from the tree and bowed to the crowd before her. Some of them gasped, and it just made Hisho more nervous. Usagi skittered over to her fiancé, Mamoru Chiba, who was leaning against the building. " I can explain myself to you if you will-" "There is no need." Setsuna's voice rung out clearly, and everyone turned towards her. " Hisho Denreisha, I recall opening the gates of time for you on numerous occasions for your excursions. If you can, please recite the instructions her majesty gave to you." Hisho breathed deeply in relief. She gulped and closed her eyes. The star on her forehead began to shimmer, and a soft wind picked up. In a distant monotone, she said." Before the official message can be revealed, the holy binding of matrimony must take place between Prince and Princess. Known in this century as Usagi and Mamoru. The ceremony must take place before the twenty first day of the last month. The message can be delivered by that time." Hisho's diamond dimmed and she opened her eyes. Usagi said in a meek voice," So.. We're getting married?"
