The scouts landed on Kinmoku the next day and were surprised to see that everyone was going around like nothing actually happened to their princes. The scouts walked towards the Fireball Palace in hopes of finding out anything of the whereabouts of Kakyuu. As they walked into the palace Mercury started scanning everything with her computer and Neptune kept checking her mirror to see if it would show her where Kakyuu was. As they were walking Sailor Moon found herself at the end of the pack.
"Sailor Moon!"
Everyone turned around to find a scorching fire ball coming towards the Moon Princess. Fighter raced towards her what Uranus was on his tail; she quickly grabbed a hold of his arm as they watched Sailor Moon fall to the ground from the blow.
"What the fuck was that for Uranus!"
"She needs to learn to protect herself."
"With what her looks?!"
"Mars, you know as well as I do that Sailor Moon can protect herself. Remember when she fought Neptune and me?"
"Of course I remember that, but still she doesn't have as much of a chance against things like that as we would. All she has is a crystal that will kill her if she uses it, a tiara, and her scepter."
"What do you mean a crystal that will kill her?"
"You see starlights Sailor Moon is the holder of the Imperial Silver Crystal and it is deathly powerful and if she were to use it she would die."
Fighter, Healer, and Maker looked at the sailor scout of love and beauty, while they helped get Sailor Moon into Fighter's arms without hurting her. They got her safely into his arms as another blow was sent to hit them both.
"Star Sensitive Inferno!"
"Venus…Love and Beauty Shock!"
Seiya moved quickly out of the way of the blow, which still hit him directly in the back. He quickly ran over to Uranus which told her that they had to put a wall up around Sailor Mon. As Uranus gave orders on who goes where they started to hear a roar coming from both sides.
"Uranus someone's trying to drown us."
"No…their…not…"
"No Sailor Moon we have this!"
"Saturn's wall won't hold all of us."
"Fighter get her out of here!"
"Mars Flame Sniper!"
Fighter jumped into the newly made hole in the ceiling that Mars had just made. As he set Sailor Moon down the water had washed over the remaining scouts. After not seeing anyone for ten minutes the last two scouts thought their friends were gone until they saw a glow coming out of the water.
"Venus!"
Before Fighter could grab her Sailor Moon was already in the water fighting her way to get to her friend. She placed her hands around her broach causing it to open up and have the crystal come out between her palms.
"Odango NO!"
"This isn't your choice Fighter it's mine, but don't worry I promise I'll be fine—as long as you help me."
Fighter dove in and swam next to his beloved girlfriend. He wrapped his arms around her waist as she raised her arms about her head.
"Cosmic Moon Power!"
The blinding beam of the crystal was cast out into the water, which instantly started to decrease. Before they knew it they both were standing on the floor with the scouts spread out before them on the floor.
"Fighter lend me you power. We have to save them!"
"Fighter Star Power!"
He placed his hands directly above Sailor Moon 'sand within minutes more power shot through the crystal. The more power that went through the crystal Sailor Moon started to lose her fuku and transformed into her natural form as Princess Serenity. AS the two held the power under control Fighter could feel something changing inside of him and he could sense Serenity growing weaker. After awhile Serenity leaned her body against Fighter's before she lost control of the crystal and was lying in Fighter's arms. After a few minutes the scouts were all up and surrounded their princess.
"Is there any way we can save her Mercury?"
"It's hard to tell right now Jupiter."
"I thought we told you not to let her use that thing!"
"Damnit Uranus I tried! She jumped into the water before I could get a hold of her."
"Fighter, don't raise your voice."
All of the scouts turned around to see who had just yelled at the starlight. As they looked to see who it was, bright golden specs of dust came down for the ceiling and revealed the one they were looking for.
"Princess!"
"Hello my starlights. It's good to see you scouts again."
"How are you here?"
"Sailor Moon…"
"Yes Mars, Princess Serenity risked her life to save yours and to bring me back to my planet."
"Can we save her?"
"I'm not sure. She is still alive now, but barely. Come let's get Serena to my chambers."
The scouts agreed and Fighter picked up his princess. AS the followed the Fireball Princess to her chambers the four outer scouts stopped and whispered about the reappearance of act of Kakyuu.
"It's not her. I can feel it and I'm sure Mars is itching to snip her."
"We have no reason to believe it's not her Neptune."
"Yes we do Uranus. Look in my mirror."
The sailor scout of sky took the sailor scout of the sea's mirror and noticed that Neptune was right. Instead of seeing Kakyuu she saw Darien walking as Kakyuu. Uranus handed Neptune her mirror back and started to race towards the others. When they joined the others Uranus grabbed Mars' arm and told her to shoot Kakyuu.
"What are you insane Uranus!?"
"Just do it Mars; it's not her!"
"Mars…Flame Sniper!"
"Star Sensitive Inferno!"
"What the hell is the matter with you Mars?!"
"Look at Neptune's mirror Healer."
The shortest of the starlights walked over to the scout of the sea and took her mirror from her. By the reaction of Healer's face they knew Mars and the others were right.
"Venus Love Chain and Circle!"
"Where is she Darien? Where is Princess Kakyuu?"
"Mars, I'm right here. Venus will you please let me go?"
"Mars…Flame…"
"Tell us Chiba. It's one against eleven you will lose."
"Shoot Mars I dare you."
"Sniper!"
The fiery red arrow ceased to a halt before it hit Darien, but instead of falling to the ground the arrow turned and was aimed at Serena and Fighter. Venus tightened her grip on him, but as she did he inched closer to their princess.
"I told you she wasn't your girlfriend Kou. So either hand her over or watch her die."
"Never!"
"As you wish."
Darien let go of the red arrow, but it was blocked before it hit the Moon Princess. In front of them Venus collapsed letting her chain fall from Darien. Healer held her in his arms while the others prepared to attack.
"Don't worry V we got this."
"No guys not without me. Serena is my princess and my friend; it's my duty to help protect her."
"Alright then let's give him everything we've got."
The two starlights and the four outer scouts stood in front of the inner scouts while they began to combine their power. As they felt their powers grow they watched their friends fall one by one until they were ready to fight.
"Scouts add your powers to the inner scouts; you all can defeat him together!"
"Serena?"
"Just listen to me!"
"Mars!"
"Venus!"
"Mercury!"
"Jupiter!"
"Saturn!"
"Pluto!"
"Neptune!"
"Uranus!"
"Healer!"
"Maker!"
"Starlight Planet Power!"
The multi-colored ball escaped from their hands while they all felt their princess beside them. The inner scouts fell to their knees drained form all the power that came through them. They only scout that was truly lifeless after that attack was Serena, because somehow they knew that she gave them the rest of her energy. Darien was down on the ground injured, but still living much to the scout's dismay.
"Quick let's get Serena out of here!"
"Hang in there Odango."
