After a particularly long day in which Lena asked a million questions Ariel was exhausted. She couldn't answer half of Lena's questions and many were very surprising.
The little girl took a million pictures of everything. She looked at the bright sky often and tended to lose her train of thought when she did. Ariel wondered where she came from as she walked home. She stopped and froze when she heard a scream. She dropped her stuff and transformed running back the way she came. A strange woman had Lena by the arm.
"Stop right there!" Lena turned toward Sailor Chibi Mercury and her face light up with delight. The woman was shocked when a flaming arrow nearly hit her from behind.
"No!" Mercury yelled to Sailor Chibi Mars. The woman picked up a squirming Lena.
"Who are you brats?" The woman yelled.
"I am Sailor Chibi Mercury and that is Sailor Chibi Mars. We will not allow you to hurt the princess, put her down before we hurt you!" The woman smiled as a black bolt appeared in one hand threatening Lena. The little girl screamed and a white beam appeared from her head the woman dropped her and screamed.
"You little brat!" She grabbed Lena's arm and snarled. Lena tried to pull her arm away and yelled.
"You're a witch! My Mummy said never to go with you! Let go Black Night!" The woman, Black Night, screamed as something slashed across her arm and let go of Lena who turned and ran off to Mars. Black Night turned around. It was Cosmic Moon's tiara.
"I am Sailor Cosmic Moon, and I will not allow you to terrorize a little princess. I stand for love and justice. For messing with a royal princess, I will punish you!"
Black Night crackled. "Not today brat!" She disappeared into a black hole.
Cosmic Moon turned to Lena and walked over. Mars put her down and disappeared into the shadows with Mercury. Cosmic Moon kneeled down. "What were you doing on your own little princess?" Lena smiled and hugged her.
"I got lost, I'm new here and she showed up. Call me Little Miss" Cosmic Moon nodded remembering how she liked to be called Small Lady. "Okay Little Miss, how about we get you home?" The little girl nodded and happily took Cosmic Moon's hand.
"I can't believe I got to meet you! My daddy always tells me stories about you, thank you for saving me… hey, Cosmic moon can I ask you something?" Cosmic Moon nodded to her. "Did you ever have to leave home? Your family and friends and scouts?" She looked at the sky and sighed sadly. "and everything was different?"
Cosmic Moon knelt to her level "Yes. When I was very young I had to leave for my protection. I know it must be hard Little Miss, but please try to enjoy your time here."
She nodded and wiped away the tears threatening to fall "I miss my family. I really want my mommy, she would make everything right. Even the sky is sad here." Cosmic Moon looked at the sky and wondered. "What color is the sky where you live little Miss?"
