"Odango," he whispered, a smile playing on his lips, watching Usagi's retreating figure.

"We can't talk to her now, can we?" a white haired man said, landing lightly, closely followed by a tall brunette.

"Looks like she's late," the brunette observed, sourly. And cast a dark look at his white-haired companion.

"It's not my fault!" he said, wincing slightly under the glare the tall brunette was giving him.

"What do you mean it's not your fault? You wanted to wait to leave, while I said it would be better to leave earlier!"

"It doesn't matter! Had we left when you wanted to, we would have gotten here in the middle of the night!"

"So you say, Yaten!" Taiki said. Yaten ignored him, and instead turned to Seiya.

"Seiya, remember what we've been sent to do. Our princess has commanded we fight the enemy and find the holders of the-"

"I know." Seiya said, not waiting for Yaten to finish, he'd heard what his mission was about twenty times already, he didn't feel the need to hear it again. "That doesn't mean I can't talk to her," Seiya continued.

"We know that," Taiki said, "just keep our mission in mind"

"Either way, we can't speak to either of them now," Yaten interjected. "For now, it's best we look for any signs of disturbance, see if the enemy has tried to sink it's roots into the earth yet."

"Hai," Seiya and Taiki replied, and the three men set their sights on the city of Tokyo.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Seiya spent the majority of the morning walking through the Juuban district, looking for any clues as to where the enemy could possibly be. He first decided to scope out the mall, where he quickly decided that having a disguise for the time being would be preferable, after being spotted by a group of pre-teen girls who recognized him, and chased him through the mall for nearly an hour.

However, thanks to his grand disguise of sunglasses and a baseball cap, he was able to avoid another encounter, after scoping the mall for a while, Seiya decided it was time to leave, and left the mall, and found himself in the shopping district, he walked around and paused outside a small electronics store in order to hear the news. He entered the shop and pretended to browse through the endless supply of headphones and Discmans, but finally left the shop, having gleaned no new information from the news.

Seiya continued to scour the district but found nothing, tired and annoyed he decided to go wait for the other Starlights. Seiya strolled to the arcade where he was supposed to meet Yaten and Taiki.

The Starlights had chosen to meet at the crown arcade as this was where they remembered the Sailor Senshi liked to hang out after school. Seiya glanced at his watch and saw he had about 15 minutes before he had to meet with the Starlights. However, Seiya decided it best to wait and took a seat by the far corner of the counter, where he had a clear view of the door.

Moments after he had sat down a sandy-haired young man hurried over to him, "Konitchiwa! What can I get for you?" he asked.

Seiya looked up at the young man, he looked vaguely familiar. "Sir?" the young man asked, giving Seiya a peculiar look.

"Oh, uhm I'll have a strawberry milkshake," Seiya said. The young man nodded and walked away. Seiya laughed to himself, goodness knows what the other man must think of him, but he looked very familiar to Seiya, it was strange. A few minutes later the young man returned with a strawberry milkshake and bendy straw, which he set in front of Seiya with a small smile, before leaving without another word.

Seiya then turned his attention to the strawberry milkshake, and began to slurp up the sweet treat, hoping to finish before Yaten came and bothered him for a sip. After he had finished the shake, and had overcome the short bout of brain freeze he looked to the door and saw as it slide open to admit a group of girls.

Seiya watched as they took seats at the opposite end of the counter. "Hey gals," he heard the young man say, in greeting. Seiya eyed the girls curiously, and didn't seem to notice Yaten or Taiki, that is until they blocked his view.

"Find anything?" Yaten asked, as he pulled his baseball cap off, allowing his white hair to hang freely. Seiya shook his head, but gave a nod to the group of girls.

Taiki gazed at them for a moment before whispering, "It's time."

Yaten gave a small nod, and stood from his seat, Seiya however remained in his seat, motionless.

"Seiya!" Yaten whispered, urgently, pulling on Seiya's arm, he shook him off, and continued to stare at the group of girls, at the blond girl in particular with two odango's falling down her back to her knees.

The three Starlights inched forward, to the girls, who at this moment chose to fall into loud laughter.

Except that is for another blond, who was slowly turning as red as a tomato. The blue haired girl was the first to notice the Starlights, and stopped mid-laugh and stared at them in what appeared to be shock. Her eyes locked with Taiki.

"Minna," she whispered, her eyes growing wide. The laughter stopped abruptly, and in unison the girls turned to look at what had surprised Ami.

A gasp slipped out of Minako's mouth. "We need to talk," Yaten said, simply.

Silence greeted the simple statement. "Starlights?" Usagi said, somewhat confused and overwhelmed.

"Hai," Seiya replied, softly. He felt his hand reach out to touch her face, her soft silken skin. He admired her silently, staring into the large, clear, blue eyes. She had changed, the three years had changed her from the adolescent girl to now a young women. Beautiful.

A small beeping brought Seiya out of his reverie. "Luna?" Usagi asked. Peering down at her communicator.

"Usagi-chan, somethings wrong! Some kind of disturbance in the shopping district!" Luna said.

"Disturbance?" Rei, asked, in a somewhat bewildered tone.

"Let's go," Minako said, sliding off of her stool, and grabbing Usagi firmly by the arm, and hurried out of the arcade, the other Senshi at her heels.

"Do you think perhaps, it's them?" Yaten asked, pensively.

"Maybe," Taiki said.

"We should go," Seiya said, staring out the open door, where the Senshi had exited.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

The Starlights arrived to the scene, and heard the loud shrieks of terror. "I'm guessing we're in the right place," Yaten said, running behind a building.

"Fighter Star Power Make-up!"

"Healer Star Power Make-up!"

"Maker Star Power Make-up!"

There was an intense light emitting from the stars, as they transformed, and where once stood three men, now stood three women in black leather suits and boots.

Immediately Seiya ran out, and into the already heated battle. Two youmas seemed to be wreaking havoc, one appearing to look like a lion with spikes along it's spine, and a long tail that had razor like bristles. The other, appeared to be an enormous tiger, with darkened eyes, both had an insignia of a golden teardrop imprinted upon their foreheads.

Far behind the two youmas was what appeared to be a woman, with long fair hair, and pale white skin that had the only blemish of a golden teardrop on her forehead, and bloody red eyes. Seiya stared at her, she stood motionless in battle and just gazed at the women as she slowly bent down towards a man, who was slumped against a wall. The long white hair fell, creating a curtain, obscuring her view. Seiya heard a whistling sound and turned to see the spikes, the lion had along his back, flying at him. Before she could react, Seiya found herself pinned to the wall behind her,

"Arghh!" She cried, pulling at the spike that had her glove pinned.

"Fighter!" Mars cried, as she sloped over to the trapped Fighter. Mars grabbed ahold of a spike and let out a slight groan as it emitted a great amount of negative energy, however she held tight, until she was thrown back as the spike let off a great shock, that left Seiya screaming in pain. From above, she heard a swishing and saw two figures sailing over head.

Sailor Uranus landed lightly and immediately entered the battle, "WORLD SHAKING!" she yelled, as the gust of wind she created sent the Spiked lion flying, away from Sailor Jupiter and Sailor Venus.

Neptune meanwhile had run to a fallen Mars, she gently gathered the girl in her arms, "Neptune," the purple haired senshi whispered. "Fighter," she managed to say, and looked to where Fighter was pinned to the wall nearly unconscious.

"Mercury- Aqua Rhapsody!" Mercury cried, throwing jets of water toward the tiger that was ambling toward Uranus, Venus and Jupiter. The attack hit the large, being smack in the face, making the beast pause a moment and change targets.

Ambling toward the Senshi of ice, the beast was struck down, by Venus and Jupiter. As the orange hearts, and the green leaves exploded over the animal, singeing its fur. It let out a loud roar, that caused Mercury to double over, from the shockwaves it was sending directly at her.

The Spiked Lion again aimed an attack at the congregated Senshi, however Jupiter and Uranus managed to jump away, Venus however was not. She cried out in pain, as a spike cut into her arm, Jupiter hurried towards her, "No, Get her! She's the one in control!" Venus yelled, pointing at the white-haired woman.

Seiya managed to open her eyes as she heard a thump and saw the crumbled form of Maker in front of him, and Healer bent over an ailing Venus.

Sailor Moon, Uranus and Jupiter sprinted toward the fair haired women, who was still bent over the unconscious man. Sailor moon held her scepter before her, and cried out "Silver moon Crystal Power Kiss!" ribbons of light engulfed the red-eyed women, but then immediately disintegrated to ash.

"Hmm, that won't really work," the women said, and gave the Senshi a smile, and with a casual flick of her hand sent the three protectors flying. The three landed well away from eachother with a loud thump

"Deep Submerge!" Neptune cried, throwing the crystalline orb of deep oceanic water towards the red-eyed wretch.

Her smile widened as she moved the orb with a small swish of her wrist, the blue orb changed course in mid-air and was sent sailing straight towards Sailor Uranus, hitting the new found target with a crash.

"Uranus!" Neptune shrieked, horrified.

"Monster!" Sailor moon called out, as she struggled to get to her feet. "To use another's attack against their friend, that's low and cheap!" she stated, finally standing.

"Cheap?" the woman asked, astonishment on her face that slowly turned to a look of psychotic pleasure. "Cheap would be attacking you when you're down, I didn't attack her. Now you, are another matter entirely."

Seiya's eyes widened as she saw what no one else head. The Tiger had been circling the group, and had just now suddenly stopped right behind the future princess.

All at once a number of things occurred, the tiger opened its jaws and unleashed and unfathomable amount of red flames. "SAILOR MOON!" Seiya roared, as the young leader turned to see the onslaught of flames, a look of apprehension on her face.

And then suddenly she was gone, the starlight gazed at the spot where the future queen of the earth should have been, but there was nothing but charred ground, heat emanating from it.

Yet there she was, about fifty feet away, in the arms of a man in a tuxedo and top hat. The man held her close, when the white-haired woman called out to him.

"Dear Prince, or would it be better to address you as King?" she asked. The man said nothing, his face showed no expression, but perhaps it was due to the mask that covered his eyes.

"I see you've found the old princess of the moon, I do hope I didn't hurt her," she said her smile growing.

"Tuxedo Kamen!" Mars yelled, as the spiked tiger took aim of him.

"Enlightened Dragon!"

"Electro-Shock!"

"Rubied-Descent!"

"Knotted-End!"

"Fogged-Lark"

"Tahira-Virtura!"

There was a blinding light of multiple colors, and Seiya felt himself slide down the wall and onto the ground, she heard a groan, and a gasp. A white fog surrounded them, making Seiya feel strangely calm.

There was a screech, and the woman disappeared in a flash of black light. Seiya slowly brought herself to her feet and saw Healer and Maker doing the same. Neptune was helping Mars up, as Jupiter helped Venus and Mercury. There was an unsteady silence around the group.

"What happened?" Venus asked, as she accepted the handkerchief Uranus offered her, to bind the wound in her arm.

"Sorry to have interfered," a voice said. Tuxedo Kamen swiveled to look in the direction the voice was coming from. He felt Sailor Moon move in his arms, he looked down and saw the large blue eyes looking up at him. Wordlessly he put her on her feet, but didn't let go of her hand, he liked the warmth she gave, and hoped that his powers would be able to heal her wounds. But Sailor moon gently removed his hand and walked towards the fallen man.

Uranus, already on her feet, stood before Tuxedo Kamen and Sailor Moon. "Who's there?" She called.

The light fog cleared slowly, seeming to recede towards a small girl, in what appeared to be a sailor suit. She had long violet hair and violet eyes, she stood dressed in a pale white, short skirt, and a long purple sash that stretched across what could only be described as leotard. Fastened to the purple sash was a white stone in the shape of a bird. Beside her stood another girl dressed in dark blues, a dark blue fuku and black bodice, that was intertwined with a dark blue ribbon twisted around a broach of deep blue sapphire in a zigzagging shape.

There was a rustling behind a bush and the Sailor senshi turned to see a man withdraw from behind a large bush, dressed in a long cloak with two red symbols on the shoulder, and a long chain necklace, that hung loosely around his neck. Beside him stood a much smaller girl, in red hues. She had what looked like a tiara upon her head with a large red stone at it center, she wore a red and gold fuku.

"We ask forgiveness for having interfered," the man said, taking a step towards the Senshi.

"But we found it prudent to help, as there's much that wretch could have done," The girl in red said.

"We apologize for the scare," another voice said, this also belonging to a stranger. A girl jumped from her perch on top of the mall, and was followed by another girl. The girl who first spoke, spoke again, "We would have most likely introduced ourselves before-hand, but it would have been unlikely that we would have found you before an attack occurred.

We're sorry we weren't able to come sooner," she said, looking at Sailor moon who stood over the fallen man.

"Allow me?" The girl asked, taking a step forward. Sailor moon nodded, and felt herself being pulled back by Uranus as the girl calmly walked toward the man.

The girl shed her gloves and bent towards the man, she gently prodded his chest, and found he was indeed still breathing. "Maia" she called softly.

Her companion immediately obliged and came forward, "I'm not sure if there's much else I can do," the first girl said, "this Yokai seems to have nearly drained him," and suddenly, the man opened his eyes.

He stared up at them, his eyes void of emotion "I must be off," he said tonelessly, getting to his feet. "I have class to attend," and he began walking, away from the shocked senshi.

"What happened to him?" Sailor moon asked, shock evident in her voice.

"He's become a void," The man stated.

"Two of your number are missing," The girl in white and purple cut in. Uranus looked at her, a steely expression on her face.

"There's little you should know about us," Uranus said.

"I think it would be better for us to explain," the girl in blue said, softly.

"Hai," Maia said, rising. "We must explain our mission," she said.

"As should we," the man said.

"and we, I suppose," the girl in white said, giving the Senshi a long puzzling stare.

"Who are you?" Tuxedo Kamen finally asked.

The man looked around, "I think it would be better if we spoke without the guises, I felt a pure aura at a temple near here, called Hikawa, I think we may all speak openly there," he said, and without waiting for a response made a deep bow and seemed to disappear.

"Hikawa shrine?" Mars asked, confusion in her voice. "Why?" she asked turning to the others, but saw that the other four strangers were gone as well.

"Who are they?" Star Maker asked.

"It doesn't matter, they aren't of this planet, nor any of the solar system," Uranus said.

"They're intruders," Neptune said.

"We have to find out what they're here for," Venus declared, looking at both Uranus and Neptune.

"They could be enemies!" Jupiter said.

"I don't think they are," Mercury said quietly. "They looked like Senshi as well, and I scanned them with my glasses, they didn't have any negative energy."

No one seemed to notice as Sailor moon and Tuxedo Kamen reached for each others hand, and began to cautiously inch away from them, Swiftly Tuxedo Kamen swung Sailor moon onto his arms and said "We'll be seeing them now, I expect you all to follow," and with a slight swish of his cape he had jumped onto a low roof and together he and Sailor moon ran toward the temple where the six strangers would be waiting.
