"Usagi- How could you be?" asked Demando, shocked.
"I don't know, I just am. I'll get to the doctor sometime this week and I'll find out whether it's a boy or a girl. I'll get Mamoru to do it… somehow. I don't know how I'm going to be able… to explain…" Usagi had started crying and was trying to talk through her tears.
"Usako, just keep going, it's okay," said Demando.
The senshi prepared to teleport and each said a short goodbye to Usagi, leaving her and Demando alone.
"It'll grow up…thinking that Mamoru's its father. I can't live like that."
"Usagi, muffin, you won't have to. We'll figure out a way. We'll find Neo Queen Serenity. I'll take care of Chibiusa, I can't tell her the truth though," he said, regretfully. "She'd break down. It's too much for a child to handle."
"No…Demando. I want you to tell her. She deserves to know as much as everyone else."
Demando pulled her close and swept her into a passionate embrace and kissed her. It put everything that they couldn't say into words. He straightened up as Mamoru came out of the mansion and wiped a tear from Usagi's eyes.
"Come on," said Mamoru, coldly.
Usagi bowed her head and said a silent goodbye to her friends and family and followed Mamoru. When she turned around to look at Demando once again, he was gone.
Usagi followed Mamoru to her room and sat down on the bed. She watched silently as he picked out a gown for her to wear. Instead of pulling out just one, he pulled out his favorite five and tossed them into a suitcase.
"What are you doing?" she asked.
"We're leaving," he said gruffly. "Too easy for the senshi to come back."
"Oh," said Usagi, rushing to the dresser. She grabbed her henshin brooch, communicator, and disguise pen and hastily stuffed them into the suitcase, hoping that Mamoru wouldn't see.
He finished packing her suitcase and grabbed her and it.
"Come on, hurry!" he said, as the mansion started to rumble.
"What's happening?" she asked as he pulled her along.
"Demando's here. He's using the power of the Black Crystal to flush us out."
He pulled her out a hidden door and into the backyard of the mansion, where a space shuttle was waiting.
He grabbed her and pushed her onto the shuttle, tossing her suitcase after her. He jumped on and the shuttle took off, hurtling for space.
Two hours later, Mamoru carried Usagi into his apartment, reclaiming his usual attire and name.
He laid her down on the bed and sat next to her, stroking her hair and admiring her beauty.

Demando paced back and forth in the throne room on Nemesis. Princess Mercury rushed in. "Demando," she puffed. "I found Usagi."
"Did you find her yet?" asked Princess Venus, walking in.
"Yes, I did. She and Mamoru are back in Tokyo under Chiba Mamoru and Chiba Usagi."
"Let's go get her!" voted Minako.
"Wait," said Princess Pluto, walking in with Neo Queen Serenity, the future Demando, Chibiusa (not Setsuna's baby), and their child: Stefani.
"Queen Serenity," Demando bowed. "How nice to see you."
"The only reason that we've come is to give you a clue on how to find Usagi-chan. Mamoru is sending her back to school, tomorrow. In two days, you must find her on her way to school. Ami, Makoto, Minako: you must create a new identity for yourselves and help find her. No doubt that Mamoru will change her appearance."
"What about Mamoru?" asked Ami.
"You will have to destroy him, but only Usagi's crystal will be able to do that. With your help as senshi, and Demando at her side, you can defeat him," said Neo Queen Serenity, before the trio disappeared.
"I don't know, I just am. I'll get to the doctor sometime this week and I'll find out whether it's a boy or a girl. I'll get Mamoru to do it… somehow. I don't know how I'm going to be able… to explain…" Usagi had started crying and was trying to talk through her tears.
