(Opening)
The scene opens with the night sky as Tenebrae flies up before forming an energy shield. A fireball lands on him.
BOOM!
Within the smoke and debris, a circle of energy stood out. As it cleared out, Tenebrae was forming the Disembering Halo before he threw it.
"HEAH!"
(From the Aqueous Star with Love by Hiroko Moriguchi)
Everything froze as the title appeared in the front.
'Sailor Moon the Shadow of Justice'
Everything unfreezes as Tenebrae gets into a stance as he faces a horde of dark forces.
"Aoku nemuru mizu no hoshi ni sotto," The next scene shows Tsubasa walking through an empty landscape where he was surrounded by the sea of stars. He stops and looks up.
"Kuchizuke shite inochi no hi wo tomosu hito yo," It transitions to Usagi standing by a balcony, looking up to see the moon shining bright in the sky as the wind blows.
"Toki to iu kin'iro no sazanami wa," Tuxedo Mask is holding a rose as he looks by the right. Right behind him is Usagi, who is looking towards the left. Both Tuxedo Mask's cape and Usagi's odango twintails are flowing in the wind.
"Aozora no kuchibiru ni umareta toiki ne," Queen Beryl comes into view as she prepares to lead the charge of youma, the Shitennou right behind her.
"Kokoro ni uzumoreta yasashisa no hoshitachi ga honou age yobiau," The Inner Senshi are shown one by one. From Ami, Rei, Makoto and Minako, they take out their transformation pens and turn into the Sailor Senshi of Mercury, Mars, Jupiter and Venus respectively.
"Namima sasurau nampasen no you ni," A tiara forms over Usagi's forehead as she transforms into Sailor Moon as she and the other senshi go right into the battle.
"Mou nakanaide ima anata wo sagashite iru hito ga iru kara," A lady in silver is floating within the stars as she tries to catch something. With a smile, she fades away. Tsubasa comes into view as he gives a thumbs up, before he is transitioned into Tenebrae.
"Omae ni aitai yo to," Tenebrae flies off into the distance, right behind the Earth's surface. Following him are streaks of pink, blue, red, green and orange. As they disappear, a bright light burst right from behind the Earth's surface as a cluster of stars are spread right out into the galaxy.
It was lunch time as Usagi and Tsubasa were eating in the classroom.
"Itadakimasu!" Usagi exclaimed as she opened up her bento.
"Thanks for eating with me, Usagi," Tsubasa said as he bit into his sandwich. "I usually eat by the roof."
"No worries!" she said cheerfully as she placed a rice ball in her mouth with her chopstick. "Eating with someone feels better!"
He smiled. It really does feel good. He always ate alone before he got to know Usagi.
"Wow, they're so pretty! These are wonderful photographs!"
Both of them turned to Naru's desk as she was looking through a collection of pictures along with some of her other classmates.
"Wow, this is amazing," she commented. "These pictures were taken by a junior high student!"
"I can't believe that a junior high student received the highest honour in Japanese Pictures."
"He must be a genius!"
"The young and talented photographer, Kijin Shinokawa-" Naru was cut off by Usagi.
"What?! No way! He goes to Gohongi Number 1 Junior High School?!" the odango girl exclaimed in amazement.
Ami was in her classroom, busy solving various calculations. Considering that Usagi and Tsubasa were in another classroom, there wasn't anything to do. Still, it feels rather quiet in her part. She wanted to join them for lunch, but she didn't want to be an inconvenience. Sometimes she wished Rei was here.
"X minus Y time pi R squared..." Ami muttered as she wrote down in her notebook.
"Ami-chan! I've got some big news!"
The voice of Usagi had echoed as she ran up to the genius with Tsubasa in tow.
"Look at this boy!" she exclaimed as she held up a magazine and pointed a picture. "He's a student at a school near to T.A. School for Girls that Rei goes to!"
"I know that,"Ami said, unsurprised.
"This is no time to act calm! We have a famous person in the area!" Usagi cried out. "Come on, let's go get his autograph!"
"I have cram school to go to after school," Ami said.
"Sheesh, Ami! All you do is study!" Usagi complained. "You're wasting your precious youth!"
'Better than trying to find one guy,' Tsubasa thought.
"Studying hard. That's what my precious youth is about," Ami said with a confident smile.
"Ugh, this is pointless," Usagi muttered as she went to find the photographer.
Tsubasa shrugged. Everyone's got their own way in spending time in their youth. He noticed the equations on Ami's notebook.
"Hey, Ami?" he said.
"Yes?" she asked.
"I was wondering if you could help tutor me with some math problems I'm having trouble with?" Tsubasa asked.
Kijin Shinokawa was a soft-spoken boy who had enjoyed taking photographs since he was younger. And it was all thanks to his father's polaroid camera. Right now, he was standing by the cliffside, trying to get a good shot of the sunset.
"The evening light changes quickly..." he observed before preparing a shot. "Now's my chance!"
CRACK!
Unfortunately, the rocks below his feet broke away as Kijin slipped off the cliff.
"WHOA!" he yelled out before a strong arm grabbed a hold of him. He looked up to see who his savior was.
It was a man with wavy, maroon hair.
"Be careful," he said.
"Yes, thank you," Kijin said as he was pulled back up on the surface.
As the older man went to help grab the camera, he began to transfer dark energy to the camera until the mark appeared on the lens. Afterwards, he carried it up and handed it to Kijin.
"I'm a huge fan of yours," he told him. "I hope you keep up the good work."
"O-Okay..." Kijin muttered as the man left.
"The next model could be you," Usagi read into the magazine. "You could be the next model to be photographed by the talented photographer, Kijin Shinokawa."
She had stars in her eyes. "Oh, I'd love to be photographed!" Usagi had many dreams and aspirations she wanted to achieve. However, each of them had ended in failure due to her lack of effort. She had thought that modelling would lack effort.
Oh, how wrong she was.
Luna walked right up to her from behind with some sort of device in her mouth. "Hey, Usagi. We got a new communication device!"
"I'm going to become a model!" the odango girl declared, not hearing the cat.
Nevertheless, the cat continued. "I already gave Ami and Rei theirs."
"Then I'm gonna call Ami and tell her!" Usagi declared in excitement as she grabbed the communicator, Luna sighing in exasperation.
Pressing a button, she saw Ami's face on the screen.
"What is it, Usagi?" Ami asked from the other line.
"Guess what, Ami? I'm thinking of becoming a model," Usagi told her genius friend.
Ami frowned and chided. "Usagi, you shouldn't use the communication device like this!" She shook her head. "Anyway, I'm in the middle of a math problem now."
With that, she hung up. "Hmm...maybe I'll tell Rei!"
However, she had second thoughts about it as she remembered what the miko said.
"If you're not interested in photography, don't make a fuss just because a famous photographer is in the area!"
"Ugh, she's going to make fun of me," she muttered. "I just know it! Eh, I'll forget it."
She would call Naru and Tsubasa, but Naru must be assisting her mother's store and Tsubasa doesn't seem to pick up his telephone.
Ami left her bedroom and returned to the living room. Honestly, she was pleased that the communication device works well but couldn't Usagi call her at a better time? She had to speak to her in her bedroom since she could allow her guest to see her device.
"Sorry about that," Ami said as she sat by the coffee table. "Someone called."
"That's fine," Tsubasa replied. The bluenette agreed to tutor him on math since he was falling behind. He had nothing else going on and this was a good time to improve himself.
"Alright, how about we start off with some basic algebra?" Ami offered as she opened up the textbook.
During their session, Tsubasa would ask some questions about some of the problems he was facing. When she showed him the methods, he was actually doing well. Sure, not all of them were correct, but he actually managed to put effort into these answers.
When she checked his answers, Tsubasa had gotten 3/4 of the page correct!
"Tsubasa, how much did you get on your last math test?" Ami asked.
"34%"
Ami's eyes slightly bugged out. How could someone with that low marks get most of these questions correct?!
"How did you score that low? I checked these questions in the textbook and you should be able to pass!" Ami questioned, still baffled at Tsubasa's modicum of intellect.
He scratched his head with a sheepish smile. "I haven't really had the time to study."
Never had the time to study?! "You need to study! What would your parents say?!"
Oh, if only she knew.
Tsubasa gave a small smile, yet it was slightly pained. "I really don't know."
Ami blinked. What kind of parents did he have?
He looked at the clock. "I better go now."
She noticed how late it was getting. "Oh, dear. I hope your parents aren't upset."
Tsubasa shook his head. "It's fine. They'll understand. I'll see you in school."
"Tsubasa-kun."
He turned around and saw that Ami had a look of concern.
"If you have any subjects that you're struggling in, I'd be glad to help you."
Tsubasa stared briefly before his smile became more happier, giving a thumbs up before he left.
Ami was slightly startled. There was that thumbs-up gesture that looked so familiar. It was almost like how a certain black-armored hero did it. She needed to find a way to collect data to see if what she thinks is really true.
"Cheer up, Usagi-chan!" Motoki said. Usagi looked so downtrodden. Why did that little brat Shingo and mom say that she wouldn't cut it as a model because she wasn't smart? She didn't need to be smart to be a model!
Did she?
"You should never give up before you even start," Motoki continued. Usagi and Luna were in the Game Center Crown as Usagi needed to confide to someone. "The most important thing is to challenge yourself!"
Usagi brightened up. "You're the only one who supports me, Motoki-oniisan."
"Motoki is right," Mamoru said as he was playing through one of the arcade machines. "Well, you'll probably fail anyway."
He took off his sunglasses and looked at them. "But no matter the outcome, the important thing is to participate."
"I didn't ask for your opinion!" Usagi exclaimed, annoyed that her nemesis was still here.
He placed his shades into his breastpocket. "Lately, both genders have started to get the wrong idea. They assume that they've become beautiful once they pretty themselves up. A girl's beauty isn't limited to her looks."
"T-Then what else counts?!" Usagi challenged as she stood up and placed her arms on her hips.
"It's what's inside that counts," he answered. "A kind heart and the guts to carry out what she thinks is right."
Usagi blinked. "Guts? For a girl?"
He nodded. "Still, you don't seem to have it though."
"Why of course I don't!" Usagi exclaimed.
"What's this I hear about guts?" Tsubasa asked as he entered the building.
"Hey, Tsubasa," Mamoru greeted. "I was just telling the odango atama that she'll fail at being a model."
"Of course I won't!" Usagi defended before she looked at Tsubasa. "I'll be a great model, right Tsubasa-kun?"
Tsubasa blinked. "I think she'll make a great model. In the context of guts, she not only has a beauty, but also the determination to achieve something."
Usagi blushed at the praise, Motoki smiled and nodded in agreement and Mamoru rolled his eyes. Seriously, is Tsubasa really this forward?
"Whatever. This guy just wants to photograph young girls, no matter who they are." Mamoru said. "If that's his approach to photography, this Kijin Shinokawa must be a second..."
He shook his head. "No...he must be a third-rate photographer."
Usagi looked away in a huff. "That's enough! I don't even want to see your face anymore!"
She stuck her tongue out and stormed out.
"Mamoru, she's a young lady. You shouldn't treat her like a little kid," Motoki said.
"I know that," Mamoru replied. "But we always end up fighting every time we talk."
"Oh, I wonder why..." Tsubasa muttered, but Mamoru caught that.
In an instant, Mamoru caught the younger boy in a headlock. "What was that?"
"S-sorry! Uncle!" Tsubasa pleaded as he felt the fire on his head. Motoki just chuckled in good nature.
The next day, Tsubasa had just finished a round of deliveries. It was quiet these past few days. No youma running about, no crisis and no beeping. It was peaceful, yet strange. On the other hand, he managed to find time to do some activities.
"Tsubasa-kun!"
He turned around to see Usagi running up to him. There was a paper in hand.
"I got in!" she exclaimed in joy.
"You're a model? Congratulations," he said.
She smiled. "This is my first modelling gig and I was hoping if you could accompany me there."
"Feeling nervous?" he guessed.
She shook her head. "Actually, I need someone to support me there."
He smiled. "Don't worry. I'll go with you."
"Great!" she exclaimed. "I'll meet you at the New Japan Hotel! I need to get a swimsuit since it was a requirement."
With that, Usagi was off and Tsubasa shook his head before pedaling off.
When they arrived at the New Japan Hotel, Usagi and Tsubasa noticed how many people there were in the photo session hall.
"Wow, so many people!" Usagi exclaimed in awe. Tsubasa raised an eyebrow. Maybe Mamoru did have a point. Photographers don't just find anyone that could be a model.
"Art is explosive!"
On top of the stage was Kijin Shinokawa. He had an air of hot-bloodedness around him and confidence exuding him.
'Strange,' Tsubasa thought. By many accounts, Kijin was a timid boy. With that kind of demeanor, he would've picked a more secluded focus to take photos off.
Then...
Tsubasa felt a dark aura coming from the photographer. Something must've happened to him.
"Everyone, please go to your assigned rooms and wait there!" Kijin instructed. "I don't want to be disturbed while I'm taking pictures, so don't peep! Everyone come in at the appointed time. Got it?!"
"Yes!" All the girls exclaimed.
Tsubasa narrowed his eyes. From a business standpoint, this was to be expected. However with a dark presence, there was only suspicion.
Tsubasa and Usagi walked through the hallway to find her changing room.
"Do you find all this weird?" Tsubasa asked.
"What do you mean?" Usagi questioned as she tilted her head in curiosity.
"Why would there be that many models for a photography session? At best, there's at least about less than ten models that are needed," Tsubasa said. "Then there's the fact that it was at least a quarter of women of Juuban."
"Oh, Usagi!"
Both of them turned to see Naru and Ms. Haruna right in front of them.
"My, so you were accepted too?" Ms. Haruna asked.
"I can't believe this. Both Naru and Haruna-sensei..." Usagi muttered. Maybe Tsubasa did have a point.
"Tsubasa, what are you doing here?" Naru asked.
"Usagi told me to accompany her," he answered. "She needs as much support as she can get."
"Oh, we're here as well," Naru said. "We'll get through this together!"
Ms. Haruna nodded as Usagi smiled. This wasn't a contest since they were going to get photographed altogether.
Tsubasa was on his way to the hotel's pool, his sports bag in his hand. He wanted to leave the girls to change as he waited for them. Considering that the photo shoot takes place at the poolside, he could begin his investigation. When he arrived, he noticed that the door was slightly opened. Quietly as he can, Tsubasa took a peek.
Well, nothing of the ordinary, Tsubasa thought as he watched. The indoor pool was surrounded with mirror walls as the poolside had a set theme of the beach.
However when Kijin pressed the button, a laser shot out from the camera as it hit the models. In a flash of light, they were gone.
I knew something was off!
With that, Tsubasa ran off to find a place to transform. However with a maze like a hotel, it was unpredictable. He needed to hide someplace where nobody can notice him. Fortunately, he wasn't the only one to notice.
Usagi was already in her swimsuit as she was dolling up for the camera. Her pink one-piece had been eaten by moths, so she had to place tied-up bows to hide the holes.
Luna had jumped by her side. "Usagi, we're in trouble!" she whispered. "All the girls Kijin Shinokawa photographed just disappeared!
"What kind of nonsense is that?" the odango girl hissed.
"I'm not kidding!" Luna insisted. "This must be one of the Dark Kingdom's plots! Please contact Ami and Rei!"
"Oh, shush! I'm busy right now!" With that, she continued to get ready.
"Oh, really? Then I'll tell everyone about your swimsuit," Luna said with a mischievous gleam in her eyes.
That got a rise out of Usagi. "O-Okay, I get it!"
"Usagi, what did you get?" Naru asked.
"Oh, just some lip gloss!" Usagi exclaimed as she and Luna tried to act innocent.
Ms. Haruna sighed. "I definitely gained weight. Would Tsubasa notice?"
"I'm pretty sure he wouldn't," Naru answered with a sweatdrop.
Usagi and Luna snuck out with the communicator as she dialed Ami's number. Ami had popped up on the screen.
"Oh, Ami-chan. I'm at the New Japan Hotel for a photo shoot right now. Come see me in my moment of glory!" Usagi said.
"Wrong!" Luna exclaimed in a scolding tone. "Something's about to happen! Come with Rei-chan this instant!"
However, the dressing room door had already opened as Naru and Ms. Haruna left the room.
"Usagi, it's our turn," Naru called out as they both went on.
"I've definitely gained weight!" both of them complained as they hung their heads in a comically depressed manner.
"Okay, let's go!" Usagi exclaimed.
"Hold on a minute!" Luna yelled, but Usagi ignored her as she tried to practice her walk on the way to the pool. In frustration, she leaped at her. "Usagi!"
Luna had nipped a ribbon from Usagi in the tushie before running off in the other direction.
"Ow!" Usagi cried in pain. Thar ribbon was tied properly as she rubbed the pain. Unfortunately, her bow was missing! "Oh, no!"
Luna turned around to see Usagi burning in rage.
"Luna, I'll never forgive you!" the odango girl yelled as she sped at the cat. "Come back here!"
The black cat wasn't just running for the girls's lives, but her's as well. Just a bit more...
"Hey! Stop right there, Luna!" Usagi exclaimed. However, she realized that she was at the pool and noticed the photo shoot going on. "Oh, no. I'm too late."
With a press of a button, Kijin took another "snapshot" as the camera had shot out another blast. In a flash, The girls, especially Naru and Ms. Haruna, were gone.
"They disappeared!" Usagi exclaimed in shock.
"I told you so!" Luna chided.
"This is terrible, Luna! Let's go!" Usagi exclaimed as she went to confront Kijin, who was laughing in his madness. "Kijin-san, what did you do to everybody?"
"Art is self-expression! I don't care who she is!" Kijin answered. "I'm gonna snap pictures of girls! Boom! Boom!"
"You're wrong!" Usagi yelled.
Kijin glared. "What did you say?"
"You don't care who it is, as long as she's a young girl? Anyone who takes photographs with an attitude like that is a third-rate photographer!"
Luna sighed. "She's just repeating what Mamoru said!"
"You're supposed to be a photographer who understands the beauty in this world!" Usagi continued. "Please wake up!"
"Back off!" Kijin yelled as he pushed her away. Usagi's head knocked right into one of the set props.
"Are you alright, Usagi?" Luna asked, worried.
"Mmhmm..." Usagi nodded, still feeling the pain.
"Now transform into Sailor Moon," Luna said.
Standing up, Usagi glared.
"Moon Prism Power! Make-up!"
Soon, Usagi had transformed into Sailor Moon!
"You can't judge how beautiful a girl is by the way we look," Sailor Moon lectured. "You have to look at our hearts and our love of justice!"
"Who are you?!" Kijin demanded.
She began to do her pose. "For love and justice, Pretty Sailor Soldier: Sailor Moon! Monster, I know you've possessed Kijin! Come out now!"
"Oh, you're beautiful!" Kijin roared with excitement as he began to press the button of the camera. Sailor Moon had quickly dodged a projectile.
"You're being controlled by a monster!" Another blast and dodge. "At this rate, all your passionate energy..."
A couple of blasts as Sailor Moon dodges and weaves through the fire. "...will be taken by the monster!"
With a jump...
"Sailor Moon Kick!"
In a flash, she had knocked the camera off his hands as the camera landed in the pool. Kijin was unconscious as Sailor Moon was by his side.
"Hang in there!"
However, a tornado whirlpool had been created from the swimming pool as a wisp of dark energy could be seen. The dark energy was formed and turned into a youma.
"Sailor Moon..." she began as she raised her arm. "I am Cameran, and Kijin's energy will be mine!"
Her hand had an eyeball growing out.
Sailor Moon was slightly mortified, yet she kept her resolve.
"Take this!" Cameran shot a ray beam from her fingertips as Usagi jumped out of the way. Unfortunately, Kijin was caught in the blast and was consumed as a result.
"N-No way!" the heroine muttered.
"Sailor Moon, be careful!" Luna exclaimed, taking cover in one of the set props. "If Cameran takes your picture, you'll be trapped inside the photograph!"
"I don't wanna be trapped!" Sailor Moon cried out in dismay. Another blast as she dodged. The blasts were narrowly avoided as they were fast beams. Unfortunately, Sailor Moon had landed hard on the ground.
"Sailor Moon, watch out!" Luna cried out as the cat leaped right in front of Usagi, before getting caught in the blast.
"Luna!" Sailor Moon cried out in horror. "Where are you?!"
Cameran chuckled. "She's right here."
She took out photos of Luna and Kijin when they were last seen.
"Luna! Kijin-san!" Sailor Moon gasped as she began to shed tears. "You're terrible..."
The camera youma laughed as she enjoyed the heroine's despair. "Sailor Moon, I'll make sure to get you this time! Take my shutter attack!"
"Stop right there!"
The pool doors opened as Sailor Moon felt relief.
"Sailor Mercury! Sailor Mars!"
"Sabão Spray!" Mercury exclaimed as the entire room was fogged.
"Youma, I will seal your evil powers away!" Mars declared.
"Rin, Pyo, Tou, Sha, Kai, Jin, Retsu, Zai, Zen! Begone, evil spirit!" Mars sent out a paper charm.
"Impertinence!" Cameran blasted the paper charms away. "Such petty tricks will not work on me!"
In a surprise, the mist was gone.
"What's going on?!" Moon exclaimed. When she turned around, Mars and Mercury had disappeared in a flash. "What happened?!"
Cameran smirked as she tossed a pair of photographs to the heroine. They were photos of the missing heroines.
Her face was now filled with despair as she looked at them. "Mercury...Mars..."
The youma chuckled as she aimed at the heroine. "I will get you now."
"DAH!"
In a surprise, Tenebrae had made his appearance by punching right at Cameran!
"Tch...you!" the youma growled as she felt the stinging pain on her cheek.
"Tenebrae!" Sailor Moon gasped in relief.
The black-armored warrior wasted no time in delivering a good beating. The youma tried to aim at him, but her arm was grabbed and thrown over his shoulder. Tenebrae carried her back up to deliver several more punches right on the back before throwing the youma right back on the ground.
"Enough!" Cameran exclaimed as she delivered a blast right at Tenebrae. Fortunately, the scarfman had jumped out of the way as it hit the mirror wall. It bounced off as Sailor Moon noticed it.
If the camera captures you, you'll be turned into a picture!, she realized.
"Tenebrae!" she called out. He looked at her and nodded. They must've had the same idea. Slowly, he backed right into one of the mirror walls.
"This is the end for you!" Cameran exclaimed as she fired a blast right straight at him. With quick reflexes, Tenebrae rolled out of the way. "What?!"
The blast was deflected and Cameran screamed in horror as she was caught in it. When she was hit, she slowly started to melt as she began to feel weak. "I'm being trapped inside the camera?! I can't disappear!"
"Youma Cameran! I won't forgive you!" Sailor Moon exclaimed as she took off her tiara.
"Moon Tiara Action!"
Cameran roared in pain as the tiara had struck her. In blue flames, she vanished. All the victims caught slowly began to appear as they looked startled as to what just happened.
Sailor Moon fell to her knees in exhaustion. "I've had enough of photo shoots!"
Tenebrae walked up to her and offered a hand to her. She looked up and smiled with a soft tinge of pink on her cheeks.
The star in Nephrite's observatory had disappeared. Nephrite grit his teeth in annoyance. Foiled again by Sailor Moon and that shadow spawn, Tenebrae.
A giggle was heard right behind him.
"Nephrite, it seems that your plan had failed."
The Shitennou general growled. "Show yourself, Zoicite."
An image of the third general appeared right in front of him.
"I'm sure Queen Beryl would be very happy to hear of your performance," the effeminate general's voice was dripping with sarcasm as he giggled once more.
Nephrite smirked. "What about you? Have you found the legendary Silver Crystal that will awaken our great ruler?"
Zoicite narrowed his eyes as the pot shots were now fired at him.
Nephrite turned his back. "You should properly fulfill your duties rather than worry about others. Countless beings possess energy on this Earth! Countless!"
Zoicite had to disappear before Nephrite goes on about his countless spiel about Earth's energy. Still, Nephrite was on a warpath right now. All because of this one Tenebrae.
A powerful individual indeed, Zoicite thought. Maybe after he finds the Silver Crystal, he needed to find out about him. The queen had warned to stay away from him. Everyone had a weakness. Tenebrae was no different.
Usagi was already tired as she immediately went back to bed. She was still dressed in her sundress from today since the physical and emotional exhaustion overtook her. Modelling did not work out for her. She wished it did. If not for that stupid youma...she could only imagine what she would accomplish.
In her dream, Usagi was dressed up like a princess as the paparazzi took pictures of her successful career as a model. However, she noticed a presence right beside her. It was Tenebrae. He offered an arm to her. With a smile on her lips, she took it.
Back in the real world, Usagi slowly began to smile in her sleep. It wasn't goofy or silly. It was a peaceful one.
(Ending)
(Natsu no Hana by JUJU)
The scene opens with the night sky as Tsubasa walked through a road. The moon had shone right above him.
"Kimi ga inai to umaku waraenai, itsu kara ka watashi wa," Stars began to form around the night sky. "Muboubi na hodo ni hikareteita kara konna ni,"
"Arifureta machi de, kakegae no nai omoi o," An image of Ami and Rei is shown. Ami was holding her book, but she wasn't reading it as her face was filled with sadness. Rei looked solemn as her eyes were shadowed by her bangs.
"Taisetsu ni shite ikiteiketa nara, mou nan ni mo nozomanai no ni," Another image is that of Makoto and Minako. Makoto had her eyes closed, but her face was that of sorrow. Minako had a look of heartbreak as her hand was over her chest.
"Ano sora ni saita natsu no hana, kaze ni mainagara ochitekuA close-up of the lower part of Tsubasa's face is shown by the side, but his lips were in a straight line. A tear slowly drops right down his cheek.
"Kimi to miteta futari de yume miteta, shunkan ga eien datta The scene is right back out of Tsubasa walking down the road.
"Kagiriaru kono toki no naka de, kagirinaku kimi dake o ai shite mo An image of Usagi looking up right at the sky. She had a smile, yet it was forlorn and laced with tears down her face did nothing to help matters.
"Mou mienai yozora ni furisosogu kagayaki, ano hibi ga tatoe you mo naku itoshikute." Tsubasa looks up to see the five senshi right in front of them. Their faces were about to break into tears as they ran to him in an embrace.
A/N: Whew! It took a lot of time, but I managed to finish up a chapter! It seems that Tenebrae had caught Zoicite's attention. I actually had an idea of openings and endings if it were a series. Just something to help the brain juices.
If Tsubasa had a voice actor. Well, since he is the same age as them, he would sound like a guy would. However, I wanted to capture his innocent yet mature and gentle nature. Plus considering the androgynous undertones, it was quite a catch.
Here's who I think would be a suited match:
Japanese (Classic): Mayo Suzukaze, since she managed to catch the calm and gentle nature of Kenshin Himura quite well when it came to crossdressing voices. Especially when it helps when the character has a rather dark origin.
Japanese (Crystal): Ayumu Murase or Kazutomi Yamamoto. Ayumu Murase sounds boyish, but there is quite some deepness in there that could capture the maturity. However, Kazutomi Yamamoto has this voice of innocence that could lift people's spirits up. More evident is his work as Yumoto Hakone in Cute High Earth Defense Club LOVE!
English (Classic): Mona Marshall. I honestly have no idea since if there was a character that had an appearance similar to Tsubasa's, they would probably try to write it off or rewrite him as a girl. However, I would think Mona Marshall would be a good fit since she's done crossdressing voices like Wolfram von Bielefelt. Plus, I like her job as the deep-voiced samurai girl, Ran Tsukikage.
English (Crystal): Casey Mongillo. She's quite versatile when it comes to voicing young or old, boy or girl. I can imagine her doing a well-done voice of a young yet mature boy.
Tenebrae's Grunts: Masao Nakasone. In the fashion of Ultraman.
So leave your thoughts.
