Chapter 82: Awakening of the Messiah of Silence? Stars of Destiny

In Mistress Nine's room...

"It's almost time." Mistress Nine declared. "Soon, I will awaken. That time will be when what you wish for; silence will cover this planet."

"We were not mistaken to choose you as our Messiah of Silence." Professor Tomoe crowed.

"I am the only one who can fulfill your wishes." Mistress Nine reminded. "If you wish for me to awaken sooner, seek Pure Hearts that will become energy for my awakening. Be of use to me. Try to make me happier."

In the Planetarium...

"And Andromeda, born from arrogant and selfish parents, had both arms and both legs chained together." Thomas Harris was narrating one of the ancient Greek legends. "And her freedom gone, she was sacrificed to a monster in the sea. The pain continued until Perseus came to rescue her. As you may well know, there are many more sad tales concerning the girls in the stars."

"So, she is here." Michiru noted, the three Outer Senshi spotting Mimete.

"The target is probably the narrator." Haruka surmised.

"But, even Ami's group is here with those two." Michiru turned her focus on Hotaru and Rikuo.

"This might work out even better for us." Haruka noted. "This is our chance to really see if Tomoe Hotaru is really Sailor Saturn."

"The giant scorpion let loose by the Goddess of the Earth is a summer constellation." Thomas continued. "Orion only shows himself in..."

"We believe that we can no longer fight without telling you the truth." Setsuna admitted to the Inner Senshi during intermission. "Uranus, Neptune and I have an objective to prevent the arrival of the approaching Silence. Our enemy is an intruder from another dimension in outer space, the Death Busters. The 'Silence' is the destruction of the world. I'm sure that Sailor Mars has already seen it in a foretelling dream."

"I wasn't sure about it." Rei admitted. "It's just that even since those monsters called Daimons started to appear, I've been having horrible dreams over and over."

"That's the 'Silence' that we have to prevent; the image of Earth's destruction." Setsuna stated. "Please place your hearts inside the orb on the tip of this rod." she brought out the Garnet Rod. You should be able to see the image that Mars has been dreaming out. If the enemy, the Messiah of Silence, awakens, this will become reality. Soon, she will reveal to us what she really is."

Just then, terrified screams were heard from the auditorium.

Inside the auditorium...

Mimete had unleashed the Daimon she brought with her. "Well done,U-Chouten." she praised, after one of the Daimon's attacks shattered the glass box Thomas was sitting in. "I'll get rid of the crowd while you get Thomas's Pure Heart. Charm Buster!" she fired her star-shaped energy wave at the audience.

"Hotaru..." Rikuo looked at his partner and the two youngsters proceeded to crawl out from their hiding place under the seats.

"Hold it right there!" Sailor Moon declared. "Stars that twinkle in the sky and sharing you feelings with the bright stars. A planetarium is a place full of dreams. Anyone who wrecks such a place of dreams, I, Sailor Moon, will punish you in the name of the moon."

"Why do you always get in my way?" Mimete pouted. "U-Chouten, ignore the Pure Heart for now. First, get rid of those who get in our way. I'm trusting you to take care of the rest." she made her escape.

"We can't move around like this." Sailor Jupiter noted, the Inner Senshi were seeking refuge behind a row of seats from U-Chouten's attacks.

"My star!" U-Chouten wailed when Rikuo leapt out from his hiding place and stabbed Nenekirimaru into the black star on the Daimon's forehead.

"Death Ripple!" Sailor Saturn released a wave of death energy, immobilizing the Daimon.

"Mercury Guardian Power!" Sailor Mercury took the opening to power up. "Hailstorm Burst!" she fired her attack at the trapped Daimon, destroying it.
