Zoisite swung his crystal sword ready to deliver the final blow to an unconscious Harusuke, but then suddenly he heard a familiar voice yell out.

"MOON TIARA ACTION!"

A certain white disc came shooting from out of nowhere and knocked Zoisite's sword away just in time. At the very same time, Sailor Moon and the Sailor Guardians arrived on the scene and Zoisite quickly dispersed the ball of energy in his hand.

"Zoisite! Your evil scheme ends-"

Sailor Moon was about to say her speech, but then she along with everyone else saw Harusuke on the ground unconscious and bleeding. Everyone's faces were filled with horror upon seeing him.

"Oh my god!" gasped Sailor Mercury.

"Harusuke!" yelled Sailor Mars.

"I apologize ladies, but you're a bit too late," Zoisite spoke coolly as he faced them. "Since you're all here and you apparently know this boy, why don't you do me a favor and take him? I'm done with him anyway."

"You bastard! What'd you do to him?!" demanded Sailor Moon her face twisted in an angry snarl.

"Oh, nothing special. I just played with this human for a bit," smirked Zoisite. "I wanted to get some payback at Solaris for punching my cheek, but then I found out this boy and Solaris were one and the same. So, I lured him into a trap by disguising myself as a woman, so I could get my revenge. And boy did he fall for it."

All of the guardians glared at Zoisite now seething with fury. Sailor Moon especially could feel her blood beginning to boil as Zoisite laughed.

"So... you tricked him by pretending to be a girl and then just..." began Sailor Moon before she trailed off her fist shaking and trembling in anger.

"That's low, Zoisite! Even for you!" Sailor Mercury spoke angrily.

"Like I care what you think," scoffed Zoisite. "All's fair in love and war and this boy lost. But don't worry. The rest of you will be joining him soon enough."

At that moment, Sailor Mars and Jupiter went on the attack.

"MARS FIRE SOUL!"

"JUPITER SUPREME THUNDER!"

A powerful fireball and a huge bolt of lightning shot out forcing Zoisite to defend himself by releasing a shield of petals to block the incoming attacks. Sailor Venus and Sailor Mercury then attacked next.

"VENUS CRESCENT BEAM!"

"MERCURY BUBBLES SPRAY!"

Sailor Venus fired her beam of light and Sailor Mercury fired a blast of bubbles, once again Zoisite managed to defend by blocking the incoming attacks. Taking advantage, Sailor Moon and the others quickly rushed over to Harusuke.

"Harusuke! Are you alright?! Please say something!" begged Sailor Moon as she cradled him in her arms.

"Open your eyes! Please wake up!" said Sailor Venus.

"That wound looks very bad!" cried Sailor Mercury. "We've got to get him treated right away!"

"It's no use. With that wound as well as his energy being drained, he's as good as dead," spoke Zoisite. "And I must say that it was worth putting up with that torture of a boy who's never known a girl like him. I mean you should have seen the look on his face when I stabbed him. Not only that but can you believe how unsophisticated he was? I mean I could tell just by looking at him and that's just putting it lightly! That date we went on was so boring, it's no wonder that I couldn't wait to kill him. It was so boring that I felt like I was about to fall asleep!"

He then cackled loudly, his laugh echoing throughout the park.

"Shut your mouth, Zoisite!" snapped Sailor Moon her eyes filling with angry tears. "I knew you and the Dark Kingdom were evil, but how could you do something like this?! You crushed this innocent boy's heart by pretending you were someone that loved him for a petty vendetta?! I don't care who you are! You're going to pay for this! I swear you will!"

"You don't scare me in the slightest, Sailor Moon," Zoisite scoffed. "But if you want to make me pay, then I dare you to come over here and try!"

Sailor Mercury, Mars, Jupiter, and Venus all stood bravely in front of Zoisite as the latter stood before them not intimidated in the slightest. A few tense seconds passed, then suddenly a golden light began to shine just behind the Sailor Guardians causing everyone to look back. They were surprised to see that the light was coming from Harusuke. He also began to levitate until he was floating upright.

"Wh-what's going on?!" gasped Sailor Moon.

"Harusuke..." murmured Sailor Mars.

At that moment, Harusuke began to change. First, his outfit changed completely becoming a white suit with gold trims on the sleeves and pants. He was also wearing armor that was a gold colored chest piece with long shoulder plates, gold metal gloves, gold metal boots, and a white cape that flapped in the wind as he floated. A bright symbol also appeared in the middle of the Harusuke's forehead which was a circle with a dot in the middle and as he opened his eyes, once again they were a bright silver color that would put even the brightest of moons to shame.

Everyone who saw this was frozen in shock and awe as his feet touched the ground.

"Wh-What is this?!" wondered Sailor Mercury.

"I don't know..." said Sailor Venus.

At that moment, Luna and Artemis' crescent moon marks began to glow as they suddenly remembered.

"I don't believe it..." murmured Luna. "It's really him."

"Prince Taiyou," Artemis finished.

All the guardians looked at Artemis and Luna.

"Did you just say prince?!" exclaimed Sailor Mars. "As in Harusuke?!"

"I don't believe it..." murmured Sailor Venus.

Sailor Moon could only stare at the man before her just as shocked and surprised.

When Zoisite saw him, he couldn't believe what he was seeing either. Not only that, but he felt the sneaking suspicion that he had seen this man somewhere before.

"That man... He's... Prince Taiyou?!" he wondered. "How... is this possible?! And why do I have the feeling... that I know him?"

Prince Taiyou then looked around surveying the area seeming to be a bit puzzled. "What is this trickery?" he wondered in a deeper voice. "This isn't the Moon Kingdom. Where am I?"

He then winced as he felt his wound ache in pain which caused him to feel it and then look at his hand. His metal glove was now stained with his red blood.

"This wound... who dares to inflict such a wound upon me?" he wondered.

Then his eyes fell upon Zoisite. Upon seeing him, his face twisted into an angry glare his silver eyes burning in hatred. He also began releasing a powerful aura making some bits of rock levitate in the air.

"Zoisite... you filthy cur," he spoke in a venomous tone. "You dare show your face before me again after what you did to us?! To your King?!"

Zoisite now felt confused as did everyone else.

"Wh-What are you talking about?" Zoisite asked. "I have no idea what you mean."

"You know very well what I'm talking about!" snapped Prince Taiyou. "Why did you betray him for Queen Beryl?! He trusted you, your fellow brothers, and yet you chose to attack and destroy our homeland for the sake of a twisted woman like Queen Beryl?! What you and your peers have done is absolutely unforgivable!"

"Luna, do you have any idea what he's talking about?" asked Sailor Venus.

"I have no clue," said Sailor Jupiter. "I'm at a loss myself."

No one else didn't know either. Then Artemis realized something.

"Wait a second... could he be talking about..." he thought to himself.

Prince Taiyou then reached to his side as if he was about to draw his sword, but he was quick to realize that he had no sword whatsoever.

"Damn it all! My blade is gone!" he spoke. "No matter. I'm more than capable of fighting you, Zoisite. Even without my blade, I'll still crush you like the cowardly cockroach you are! I may be disarmed, but I'm still more than a match for you!"

Now Zoisite felt a bit insulted. "Is that so, dear prince? Well then, I may not know who you are, but your confidence is indeed surprising. It seems that you can talk the talk, but let's see if you can walk the walk."

He then raised his hand and was about to unleash his signature flurry of petals, but before he had a chance to react, Prince Taiyou dashed forward in a speed that was unlike Harusuke's and then clocked Zoisite square in the face sending him backward. Zoisite recovered by backflipping until he was back on his feet and looked up at Prince Taiyou in shock.

"No way! I couldn't follow that attack!" he thought to himself. "It was so fast!"

"What's wrong, Zoisite? Have you lost your nerve?" asked Prince Taiyou somewhat mocking. "Or are you going to flee with your tail between your legs?"

"Don't start getting cocky just because you hit me," Zoisite said coldly as he wiped his cheek. "If it's a real fight that you want, then I'll be glad to give it to you! Zoi!"

He then fired a powerful blast of black energy from his hand at him, but Prince Taiyou jumped up dodging the blow. While he was in the air, Zoisite then fired a couple of arrows of crystal at him causing the Guardians to be alarmed.

"Hey! Look out!" yelled Artemis.

But Prince Taiyou was perfectly calm as he clenched his fist making it glow with a bright and golden light.

"GOLDEN LASSO!"

A beam of light shot out from his hand and began to bend and coil allowing him to control it like a whip. With a swing of his hand, the whip of light swatted and knocked away all of the crystals much to the surprise of Zoisite. Prince Taiyou then swung his whip again making it shoot towards Zoisite. Naturally, Zoisite blocked the attack with ease, but the whip of light split into two directions and wrapped around Zoisite binding him.

"That attack!" gasped Sailor Jupiter. "It's just like Solaris' Solar Binding!"

"Only Prince Taiyou's has a lot more control over it," said Sailor Mercury.

"Damn it!" cursed Zoisite as he struggled. "Let me go!"

"I'll let you go alright, villain!" Prince Taiyou smirked.

Prince Taiyou then gave the whip of light a mighty tug swinging Zoisite around and around in a circle until he swung it down towards the ground slamming Zoisite hard. Stunned as well as in his own crater, Zoisite was dazed wincing in pain. The Guardians, as well as Luna and Artemis, were stunned by this incredible display.

"Incredible..." spoke Sailor Mars with amazement.

"Even though that he's wound, he still has that much strength?" Sailor Venus gasped.

But Sailor Venus was wrong. Due to the wound on his hip, Prince Taiyou couldn't help but wince in pain as it oozed a little more blood, but he stood strong as he covered up his wound.

"On your feet, Zoisite!" he ordered as he dispersed his whip. "If you think I'm finished with you, you're sadly mistaken!"

Zoisite then got back on his feet still shaken from the blow, but he was now more angrily than ever.

"You little wretch! You think that you can take me in your wounded state?!" he snapped fiercely. "I'll kill you before I let you have the chance!"

"Have at you then!" Prince Taiyou shot back. "For even though I'm wounded, I will not rest until I get my revenge for not only deceiving me but for also turning your back on us! Prepare yourself!"

The two prepared to clash once again both of them glowing with powerful energies. Then suddenly, Zoisite and Jadeite arrived appearing just behind Zoisite.

"Zoisite, are you alright?" asked Kunzite.

"Kunzite! Jadeite! It's about time you two got here!" Zoisite complained.

"Seems like you're having a bit of trouble, Zoisite," Jadeite spoke aloof.

The Guardians were surprised to see the two, Sailor Moon, Mercury, Mars, and Luna especially upon seeing Jadeite.

"No way! Is that Jadeite?!" gasped Sailor Moon. "But... I thought we beat him back at the airport back then!"

"Yeah! That plane should have killed him!" said Sailor Mars. "There's no way that he could be alive!"

Prince Taiyou was just as surprised upon seeing Kunzite and Jadeite, but then his surprise was replaced by his returning anger. Kunzite and Jadeite then looked at the prince and their eyes widened in surprise.

"Who is that?!" asked Kunzite. "I feel like... I've seen him somewhere before.

"That's the boy who we were targeting, Kunzite," explained Zoisite. "It turns out that he's Prince Taiyou of the Moon Kingdom!"

"Prince Taiyou?!" Jadeite asked a look of surprise showing on his face. "The eldest son of the Royal Family?!"

"So, Kunzite and Jadeite. You've decided to show your faces too?!" he growled. "That's fine with me. I've been meaning to track you two down as well. Since you're both here, I might as well reap the reward that fate has brought me and take all three of you traitors down for good!"

"Sorry, Prince, but we have better things to do rather than play around with you," said Kunzite. "But don't worry, you can be sure that we'll be back."

"But Kunzite! We can take them!" protested Zoisite. "We have a chance to not only kill the prince but to take the Silver Crystal too!"

"Zoisite, will you use your head for once?!" snapped Jadeite. "Our mission has already been completed, so there's no reason for us to stick around anymore. Unless you want Queen Beryl to be furious."

Zoisite was silent. Then he clicked his tongue in annoyance. "Fine," he said.

Kunzite with a wave of his hand opened a portal to the Dark Kingdom.

"They're retreating!" called out Sailor Moon.

"Get back here, you cowards!" Prince Taiyou roared as his hind began to glow again. "I won't let you escape! Not for what you did to Endymion!"

He then fired a blast from his hoping to prevent their escape, but he was too late. The three Kings of Heaven disappeared into the portal as it closed behind them as the beam of light aimlessly shot past.

Prince Taiyou growled in anger. "Damn those wretches! If those fools think that I'm about to let them get away, they got another thing coming!"

He was just about to pursue them when he felt a shot of pain on his hips causing him to grunt in pain. Sailor Moon then rushed over to him.

"Harusuke? Are you alright?!" she asked worriedly.

Prince Taiyou looked at Sailor Moon a bit confused. "Who is this Harusuke you speak of, Sister?" he asked raising a brow.

"Wait... what are you talking about?" Sailor Moon spoke. "You're Harusuke. My brother? And I'm your sister, Usagi."

"Usagi? Why do you address yourself by such a strange name, Serenity?" Prince Taiyou asked. Then he shook his head. "Never mind. I have no time for games. Besides, this wound is nothing. Nothing compared to the anger I feel towards those traitors! I must hunt them down and destroy them once and for all!"

"Prince Taiyou, wait a minute!" cried Luna. "You have to stop and rest for a minute!"

But it was no use. In a giant leap, Prince Taiyou took off into the air disappearing into the rooftops above. All the Guardians could do was stand there dumbfounded and confused as to what had just happened.


Back in the Dark Kingdom, Jadeite, Zoisite, and Kunzite all made it back to Queen Beryl safely and Zoisite presented the ball of energy that he extracted from Harusuke.

Queen Beryl was pleased. "Well done, you three," she said. "This energy is strong and powerful. With this, we will be able to bring back Nephrite and the Four Kings of Heaven shall be revived."

"Queen Beryl, we thank you for your praise," said Kunzite. "But I'm afraid that we have to report something else that might be troubling."

"And what would that be?" asked Queen Beryl.

"It's would seem that while the boy indeed the one that Jadeite predicted, we found out that he had another identity," said Jadeite. "He's also Prince Taiyou of the Moon Kingdom."

Queen Beryl stared at Zoisite her eyes widening. "What? Prince Taiyou has finally awakened?"

"Yes. He has my queen," said Kunzite. "We would have been able to handle him by ourselves due to his wounded state, but the Sailor Guardians showed up and we were forced to retreat. We couldn't risk letting the energy Zoisite gathered to slip from us."

Queen Beryl was silent. Kunzite, Zoisite, and Jadeite all assumed that Queen Beryl was about to explode in anger, but surprisingly she was calm.

"That was a wise decision on your part," she said. "However, that does put us in a grave position which is why we must resurrect Nephrite as soon as possible."

She then went over to Nephrite body of which was still inside the stone coffin. She walked over to it and then held the ball of energy over Nephrite's body. It slowly began to shrink growing smaller and smaller as it disappeared into Nephrite's body. Queen Beryl then raised her staff as it began to glow in a purple light.

"In the name of the Dark Kingdom, I call upon your soul from beyond the grave," she commanded. "Heed my call and return to us! Be reborn! Nephrite!"

The orb on Queen Beryl's staff began to glow brightly as it bathed Nephrite in its glow after a few seconds, the glow died down. There was a bit of silence, then Nephrite began to stir as his eyes slowly began to open. He slowly sat up and got out of the coffin. Kunzite, Zoisite, and Jadeite were amazed as well as shocked and Queen Beryl smirked feeling pleased.

"She... She did it," murmured Zoisite. "Nephrite... has been brought back to life!"

Nephrite looked around at his surroundings. "What's happened to me?" he asked. "Why am I in the Dark Kingdom?"

"Welcome back, Nephrite," said Queen Beyrl. "It's good to see that you're back. However, I must test you to see if you're truly returned. Do you know who I am and who you're enemies are?"

Nephrite looked up at her. " 're my queen, Beryl and my enemies are the Moon Kingdom and the Guardians that serve it," he said as he looked at the other members. "And I see that you've gathered the other members of the Kings of Heaven. Has something happened?"

"Yes. It has," said Queen Beryl. "The Prince of the Moon Kingdom, Taiyou has returned and he must be disposed of as soon as possible. Therefore, the four of you must track him down and kill him before he has a chance to recover. Don't stop until he's as good as dead."

The Four Kings of Heaven all bowed before Queen Beryl respectfully.

"Yes, Queen Beryl," they all spoke.


Meanwhile, Prince Taiyou was jumping from building searching for his enemies. As he jumped around scanning at the ground below, he couldn't help but feel a bit out of place with his new surroundings.

"This land... what kind of place is this?" he thought. "This isn't the Moon Kingdom because I can see the Moon in the sky. So, therefore, I must be on Earth. It certainly has changed over the years."

He then stopped on the top of a tall building that was high above the streets of downtown. He gazed towards the streets below watching as the streetlights glimmered and the cars and people bustled about going left and right without a care in the world. Prince Taiyou was amazed as well as curious, but he quickly remembered that he didn't have time to sightsee. He then felt a twang of pain on hip causing him to grunt in pain. He felt his hip with his hand and saw that there was still a little bit of blood on it.

"Damn it all. I suppose pursuing those villains while being injured wasn't the best idea," he said to himself. "But I can't turn back now. I must find those monsters post haste. Who knows what dastardly scheme those curs may be plotting. One thing's for sure, once I find them and crush them, I'll question them about the location of Queen Beryl. And then..." he clenched his fists in anger and hate as they glowed. "I'll make sure Queen Beryl rues the day that she ever decided to cross my family!"

His silver eyes glowed in a dark silver color as he resumed his search.


Sailor Moon and the other guardians were running down the street desperately trying to search for Prince Taiyou. But he was nowhere to be seen.

"Where could he be?!" wondered Sailor Moon. "He couldn't have gone that far, could he?! Harusuke! Harusuke, where are you?!"

"Calm down, Sailor Moon," said Luna. "This isn't the time to be so freaked out."

"Freaked out?! Freaked out?!" Sailor Moon cried a bit hysterical. "My brother not only was tricked into thinking that a girl liked him and was stabbed as a result but now I find out that he's a prince and has practically become an entirely different person that doesn't even recognize me?! And not only that, he's running around the city with a giant hole in his side probably bleeding to death as we speak?! How can I not be freaking out right now!?"

"Yeah! But you screaming like a lunatic isn't gonna help much!" Sailor Mars snapped. "So stop screaming already!"

Sailor Moon immediately stopped, but she couldn't help but bit her lip trying her best not to cry. Sailor Mars then placed a gentle hand on her shoulder.

"Don't worry. We'll find him," said Sailor Mars. "And we'll make sure that he's okay too."

Sailor Moon tearfully nodded as she wiped her eyes.

"But I'm still puzzled as to why this happened," said Sailor Mercury. "When Usagi awakened as Princess Serenity, she managed to return to her normal self. So why is Harusuke... or rather Prince Taiyou acting so strangely?"

"Do you two know anything about this?" Sailor Venus asked Luna and Artemis.

The two cats then frowned seeming a bit hesitant to answer. Everyone then turned towards the cats.

"What's wrong, you two?" asked Sailor Jupiter. "I mean if you two know anything, then spit it out already."

Luna and Artemis looked at each other. Then Artemis spoke.

"Well... the thing is, we think that what's happening here there's a strong possibility that due to the shock of finding out who he is and becoming enraged of being tricked, Prince Taiyou could be acting the way because of the negative emotions Harusuke felt," said Artemis. "

"That explains a bit," said Sailor Mars. "I did sense a lot of rage emanating from his aura."

"Not only that, but he seems to think that he's the era when the Moon Kingdom back when it was prosperous," said Luna. "Which why he was acting the way he was and why he didn't recognize Sailor Moon by her real name and thought that she was Princess Serenity."

"But isn't there any way to snap him out of it?" asked Sailor Moon. "I mean there has to be a way right?"

"We think so," said Artemis. "If Sailor Moon uses Moon Healing Escalation, then it should return him to normal. However..."

"It won't be an easy task," cut in Luna. "Prince Taiyou is sure to attack us in his current state, so we have to confront him in order to heal him."

"But... wait. When you say weaken him, do you mean..." Sailor Mars spoke before trailing off.

Artemis then nodded. "Yes. I'm afraid that you all gonna probably have to fight, Prince Taiyou in order for you to save him."

The Guardians all gulped a slight cold feeling of adrenaline going up their veins. None of them really wanted to fight Prince Taiyou, but at the same time, they couldn't just leave him the way he was. There was a long silence. At last, Sailor Moon spoke.

"Luna, Artemis. You're sure that there's no other way to save my brother?" she asked.

"I'm afraid not, Sailor Moon," said Luna. "And I'd understand that you wouldn't want to fight against your own brother, but-"

"I'll do it," interrupted Sailor Moon.

Everyone then stared at Sailor Moon taken aback for what she said.

"Sailor Moon... are you sure?" asked Sailor Mars. "I mean... we're talking about fighting against your brother."

"Yes, I know. But if it's for saving my brother, then I'll fight him if I have to," Sailor Moon spoke with determination. "Besides, Harusuke's tough. He can take any type of beating and bounce right back. I'll just give him a couple knocks to the head and then I'll turn him back to normal!"

"That's the spirit, Sailor Moon," smiled Sailor Venus.

"Yeah. Don't worry. We'll get Harusuke back," said Sailor Mercury. "And we'll stop whatever the Dark Kingdom has planned as well!"

"Then what are we waiting for?" Sailor Jupiter grinned cracking her knuckles. "Let's go find him!"

And they all ran off resuming their search for Prince Taiyou.

"Don't worry, Harusuke! We're coming to help you!" Sailor Moon said to herself. "I promise we'll save you!"


Prince Taiyou was still searching for any sign of Kunzite and the others, but they were nowhere to be seen. He searched high and he searched low, but he had no luck in finding them.

"Damn it all! I can't find them anywhere!" he cursed. "Those wretched bastards are quite formidable when it comes to running away!"

Then suddenly, he started to feel a bit light headed causing him to hold his head in agony.

"And to make things worse, I'm feeling rather ill," he muttered. "It must have been due to this mysterious wound no doubt due to Zoisite's trickery. I suppose I should have waited to dress it before I ran off. Then again, I am Mother's knight. A wound like this is nothing."

"Are you sure about that, Prince?" said a mocking voice. "Because that wound looks bad. You sure you don't want to rest?"

Prince Taiyou then whipped his head around. "Who goes there?! Show yourself!" he shouted. "Come out and face me like a man!"

"My, my. What bravery," said another voice. "Very well then. If you wish to satisfy that foolish pride you call bravery, just come towards the light if you think you got the guts."

He then saw something. Just a few feet away from him, he saw a sort of beacon in the distance which was a pillar of light. He immediately dashed straight towards it hopping from building to building until he landed in a vacant lot. As soon as he landed there, the beacon of light turned off. Then street lamps that were illuminating the area turned on and Prince Taiyou found himself surrounded by Kunzite, Zoisite, Jadeite, and Nephrite.

"So you finally show your faces, eh?" he spoke with a scowl. "Fortune has smiled upon me once again!"

"I'll give you this much, Taiyou, you certainly are brave despite your current state," said Kunzite. "But that also proves that you're just as foolish."

"That's right. Because in case you haven't noticed, you have yourself at a disadvantage," smirked Zoisite. "And not just from that wound on your hip."

"If you're talking about odds, those don't matter to a warrior like me," Prince Taiyou spoke bravely. "I've fought against you four countless times back in the Moon Kingdom and I've defeated you each and every time, so this should be nothing different."

Kunzite raised a brow in confusion. "What is this fool talking about?" he thought. "He acts as if that we fought against him before. But where? And when?"

At that moment, something bubbled up in his mind. A memory of some sort. He saw himself and his fellow Kings of Heaven battling against Prince Taiyou. Then he saw Endymion standing bravely in front of Taiyou protecting him from harm.

"What... what was that?!" he wondered. "Some kind of vision?" He then shook his head trying to stay focused on the task at hand.

"Do you honestly think that you can take us all on at once wounded and outnumbered?" said Jadite. "I think I'm insulted."

"Don't be intimidated," Nephrite spoke. "All of what he said his just talk. He may be tough, but he doesn't stand a chance against us."

"You think so? Then why don't you all fight me and prove it!" Prince Taiyou said his hands glowing and charging with power. "Tonight, I shall take my revenge!"

The five were just about to start their battle when suddenly a familiar voice was heard.

"Stop right there!"

Everyone immediately looked up where the voice came from and there standing on top of the building with the Moon shining brightly behind were Sailor Moon and the other Sailor Guardians.

"Four against one is a completely unfair fight!" said Sailor Moon. "I won't allow anyone to fight such despicable tactics, especially if it's against a prince! We are the Sailor Guardians! And in the name of the Moon..."

"We'll punish you!" the five of them said together.

"So, the Sailor Guardians are here?" growled Jadeite. "Damn! They always did show up whenever they aren't wanted."

"Look at that!" cried Artemis upon seeing the four. "Those are...!"

"The Four Kings of Heaven!" gasped Sailor Venus. "All four of them in one place?!"

Sailor Moon, Mercury, and Mars then saw Nephrite and were deeply shocked when they saw him.

"No way! Is that... Nephrite?!" gasped Sailor Mercury.

"But... he died, didn't he?!" wondered Sailor Moon. "We saw Zoisite and his monsters kill him!"

"This isn't the time to worry about that right now!" said Luna. "We have to stay focused!"

The Guardians then nodded agreeing with Sailor Mars.

"Alright, everyone! You know what to do!" said Luna. "Spread out and protect the prince!"

"Right!"

Everyone then leaped off the building and each of the Sailor Guardian took someone to square off against. Mars took Jadeite, Merucy with Zoisite, Sailor Jupiter Nephrite, and Venus had Kunzite leaving Sailor Moon to Prince Taiyou.

"What's the meaning of this?" Nephite asked raising a brow.

"We're not about to let you hurt, Prince Taiyou!" said Sailor Mercury.

"If you wanna get to him, you have to get by us first!" said Sailor Jupiter.

"Very well then!" said Zoisite. "If you guardians want to stand in our way, then you girls can join him!"

"We'll dispose of you and Prince Taiyou all in the name of Queen Beryl and our Great Ruler!" Nephrite spoke.

The Sailor Guardians and the Four Kings of Heaven all then attacked engaging in an all-out brawl. They jumped and they dashed around each other launched her attacks or punching and kicking. In the midst of all the chaos, Prince Taiyou couldn't help but feel bewildered.

"The Sailor Guardians?! What are they doing here?!" he demanded. "And how dare they interfere with my fight! I could have handled it myself!"

Then he saw Sailor Moon walking towards him with her Crescent Moon wand in her hand and Luna and Artemis in tow.

"What are you up to, Serenity?" Taiyou asked suspiciously.

"I'm sorry, Harusuke, but I have to stop you before you do anything else to hurt yourself," said Sailor Moon. "You're injured and you're acting out of hate and anger. You need to be healed, so please... don't make things difficult."

Prince Taiyou looked at the Crescent Moon wand and then back towards Usagi. His eyes became a darker color as he glared.

"You dare raise your hand against me, Serenity?!" he growled. "Has the Dark Kingdom, as well as the Earth, warped your mind that much?! Very well then! I shall not pull my punches even if it's you!"

"Bring it on!" Sailor Moon spoke bravely. "And my name isn't Serenity! Well... it is, but that's not who I am! I'm Sailor Moon and in the name of the Moon, I'll save you!"

Prince Taiyou then shot forward letting out a fierce cry of battle as he swung with his right leg. Sailor Moon immediately ducked dodging the blow and jumped back. Prince Taiyou gave chase following her in hot pursuit attacking with punches and kicks left and right, but Sailor Moon managed to dodge the incoming attacks albeit just barely.

"Why do you flee, Sister?!" Prince Taiyou yelled. "Come and face me!"

Sailor Moon ignored him and kept on dodging his attacks with Luna and Artemis watching from afar praying for her to succeed.

"Come on, Sailor Moon. You can do this!" thought Artemis.

"If anyone can save Harusuke, it's you!" Luna thought.

As the Four Kings of Heaven continued to fight the Sailor Guardians, they took notice of Sailor Moon fighting against Prince Taiyou as did the Guardians themselves. They immediately realized what Sailor Moon was up to.

"So that's her game is it?" Kunzite spoke. "She plans to heal him."

"I'll stop her before she has a chance!" yelled Zoisite.

He was about charge into Sailor Moon, but then Sailor Mercury cut him off as she unleashed her Mercury Bubble Spray forcing him to block the attack.

"Don't worry about them! You should be focusing on me!" she said.

Zoisite clicked his tongue in annoyance as he resumed his fight with Sailor Mercury. The same thing happened to the others as well. Whenever they would try to intervene with Sailor Moon and Prince Taiyou, the Guardians would prevent them from going any further while Prince Taiyou and Sailor Moon continued to fight.

At this point, Prince Taiyou was beginning to lose his strength growing weaker and out of breath. His movements became a little slower and he felt his limbs grow heavier. His wound also began to hurt once again and he held it in pain.

"Damn it... Come and face me!" he yelled weakly.

"Harusuke! Please! You have to stop!" yelled Sailor Moon. "You're about to collapse and you've lost a lot of blood! Let me heal you!"

She raised her Crescent Moon Wand about to cast Moon Healing Escalation, but then Prince Taiyou fired his Golden Lasso making it wrap around Sailor Moon binding her tightly.

"Sailor Moon!" Luna And Artemis cried.

Sailor Moon whimpered in pain as she felt the bind that held her grow tight as Prince Taiyou began clenching his fist.

"I didn't want to use this unless I needed to, sister, but you left me with no choice!" Prince Taiyou spoke gritting his teeth. "Now, I'll squeeze you until you beg to surrender!"

"H-Harusuke! Please... stop this!" begged Sailor Moon. "I'm... your sister! Please!"

Then suddenly, Luna and Artemis leaped into the fray each of them letting out loud yowls. Before Prince Taiyou could react, they latched onto his head and began clawing at him causing him to cry out in pain and make him lose focus. Feeling his bind weaken, Sailor Moon struggled and strained and with a grunt, she broke free of the Golden Lasso. Seeing that Luna And Artemis were keeping Prince Taiyou busy, she then took off her tiara from her and transformed it into a disc of light taking aim.

"Harusuke... forgive me!" she said. "MOON TIARA ACTION!"

She then fired the disc aiming right for Prince Taiyou. Princen Taiyou had just thrown Luna and Artemis off of him and was redirecting his attention towards Sailor Moon when he saw something white and glowing coming straight towards him. Before he had a chance to react, the Moon Tiara Action hit him straight at his midsection where his wound was. It didn't pierce him, but it felt like someone punched him right in the gut. The force of the attack made him skid backward, but he remained standing despite feeling an incredible amount of pain. His body was shaking as he tried to remain standing but in the end, he fell onto one knee.

"Now!" thought Sailor Moon as she raised up her wands activating its powers. "MOON HEALING ESCALATION!"

The Crescent Moon Wand along with the Silver Crystal shone brightly unleashing a powerful blast of light and dust. Prince Taiyou writhed in agony as he tried to resist.

"No... I won't... let go... of... my..."

Then in a brilliant flash of light, Prince Taiyou reverted back to Harusuke as he fell to the ground unconscious. Sailor Moon then sank to her knees in exhaustion as she tried to catch her breath.

"Alright! Sailor Moon did it!" cheered Artemis.

"Way to go, Sailor Moon!" said Luna with relief. "You saved him!"

The other Guardians and the Four Kings of Heaven immediately stopped fighting. Then Zoisite seizing an opportunity unleashed a blizzard of power blinding Sailor Mercury as he shot towards Harusuke.

"Thank you for healing him, Sailor Moon!" he said as dove towards him. "You've given me the perfect opportunity! To kill this boy in his sleep!"

He summoned forth a crystal sword and aimed it right at Harusuke. Sailor Moon seeing this summoned what little strength she had and rushed on over, coming in between Zoisite and Harusuke.

"I won't let you touch him!" she yelled as she raised the Cresent Moon Wand above her head.

The Silver Crystal glowed and a pink barrier formed around Sailor Moon shielding herself and Harusuke. Zoisite's sword made contact with the barrier making the collision spark. Finally, the barrier bounced Zoisite away from her sending him a few feet away. Kunzite, Jadeite, and Nephrite all rushed to his aid while the other guardians went over to Sailor Moon and Harusuke. They all gazed grimly at each other. Then Kunzite relaxed as he waved his hand summoning forth the portal to the Dark Kingdom.

"Don't think that this is over!" he shouted. "We'll be back to destroy you all!"

And with that, the Four Kings of Heaven disappeared into the portal as it vanished into the air. Sailor Moon and the others quickly rushed over to Harusuke.

"Harusuke! Can you hear me?" asked Sailor Moon. "Please say something!"

Harusuke stirred as his eyes slowly opened halfway. He skin was pale and he was shivering as he struggled to breathe.

"U-Usagi...? Is... that you...?" he whispered weakly.

"Yes! I'm right here!" Sailor Moon said as she gripped his hand. "Just stay with me, Harusuke. You'll be okay!"

Sailor Venus then rushed over and placed two fingers on his wrist checking his pulse.

"He's still alive, but his pulse is very weak!" she said. "We need to get him to a hospital right away!"

"There's no way we'll make it in time! We have to do something now before it's too late! said Sailor Mercury.

"Sailor Moon, can't you use the Silver Crystal to heal him?" asked Sailor Mars.

"I... I don't know. I've never used it to heal someone before," said Sailor Moon.

"It should be able to," said Luna. "The Silver Crystal's capable of just about anything. Including healing that wound."

"But we have to act quickly! Harusuke won't last much longer," said Artemis. Then he looked at Sailor Moon. "Sailor Moon, you have to concentrate on what you want the Silver Crystal to do and it should be able to do it. You just have to focus."

Sailor Moon nodded then she looked at Harusuke as she held the wand over him. She also closed her eyes and concentrated as the Silver Crystal began to emanate a bright pink light.

"Please Silver Cyrstal... I beg you! Save my brother! Lend me your powers so I can heal him!"

The Silver Crystal began to glow brighter and brighter shining upon Harusuke's body. As it did, the wound on his hip began to glow as well. Everyone watched in amazement as the wound slowly began to close up. After a few more seconds, the wound completely closed as the light of the Silver Crystal faded away and Sailor Moon fell to her knees from exhaustion.

"Sailor Moon? Are you alright?" asked Sailor Mars.

"I'm... I'm okay," panted Sailor Moon. "I'm just... a little bit tired."

Sailor Mercury then checked Harusuke's pulse again. She then sighed in relief. "His pulse is a lot stronger now. I think he should be okay now."

"Way to go, Sailor Moon," said Sailor Jupiter happily. "You healed him."

Sailor Moon let out a weak laugh as she gave a thumbs up. Sailor Jupiter then lifted up Harusuke into her arms as she stood up.

"What do you say we all head home?" she asked. "We gotta make sure Harusuke's alright after all."

"I agree," said Sailor Mercury. "In that's the case, let's head for Usagi's place. At least that way, we'll be sure that he's in a safe place."

Everyone agreed and so they all headed back to the Tsukino's place.


Soon enough, everyone made it back to the Tsukino's place and Harusuke was lying down on his bed covered up and fast asleep with Usagi and the others standing in the room with him.

"It seems like he's fast asleep," said Makoto. "He looks so peaceful."

"Thank goodness that we were able to help him," said Ami. "But I'm still wondering what he was talking about before when he was Taiyou."

"We're not really sure," said Luna "But for now, all we can do is watch over him until he wakes up. When he does, we'll have to tell him everything that happened while he was possessed."

"Yeah... but... he's definitely not going to be thrilled when he finds out," said Makoto. "Especially the part where Zoisite was his date."

Usagi could only hold her brother's hand squeezing it lightly. Minako then patted her shoulder reassuring her.

"It'll be okay, Usagi," she said gently. "The important thing is that Harusuke's safe and sound and we'll be there for him when he wakes up."

"And we'll protect him too," said Ami. "No matter what happens."

Usagi could only nod as she along with her kept their vigil over Harusuke as the night rolled on.
