"Ninako!" Kurai called. Kiboken appeared in her hand. "SHINJITSU!"
The monster exploded. A white cat landed on the ground. "A cat!? The monster took hold of the cat!?"
Lizzie moaned. "You...!? Who are you?"
"Damn!" Kurai thought.
"We are the soldiers of justice, Sailor New Moon and Sailor Blue Moon!" said Ninako. "You okay? Weren't you hurt?"
Lizzie's eyes shone white. "You are the one who is hurt," she said.
"What?" Ninako said. She looked at her arm and saw blood. "Oh, you're right."
The girl held Ninako's arm.
Kurai whirled around. "Who's there!? Is the enemy still..."
The two shadowed figures run off into the moonlight.
Seiya and the other soldiers run up.
"Kurai!" Ninako called. "Look, my injury..."
"It's gone!?" Kurai thought. "That kid..."
"When you get home, you should disinfect it," Lizzie said. She tied a handkerchief around Ninako's arm. "It's eerie. Since I was small... I've had this strange power."
"Sailor New Moon!" Seiya called. "Blue Moon!"
"You should leave this place at once," Lizzie said.. "If the guards find you, you'll be in trouble."
"Thanks," Ninako said.

"Be careful," Kurai said. She walked off with Seiya and Ninako. "Hey, Ninako. You shouldn't give away our real identities so readily. We don't know what form the enemy could be taking!"
"Sorry... But I thought I could be friends with that kid. I liked Lizzie-chan. That pure-white skin... She was pretty."
"That kid..." Kurai thought. "She had the power to heal Ninako's injury..."
Seiya, Taiki and Yaten were together now working on the computer and learned that the owner of the Infinity School and Moeto Research Labs is Moeto Souichi. -Lizzie's father.
Later that night, Queen Kaguya was sitting gazing into a pool of water at a castle and calling for the Three Talismans. At her anxious calls, Seiya's eyes open because he can sense the evil calls.
Seiya sits up in bed. Kurai and Ninako lie asleep next to him. "Again. That dream... Someone is calling... for someone else to awaken... The three talismans? Ruin? Three talismans? Saying for us to come? Or else... Recalling the ruin. Trying to get us?"

"What is it?" Sandra said.
Theresa stared at her mirror. "I was thinking of fortunetelling, and it was interrupted. The mirror got cloudy. But then it cleared up."
Sandra put his arms around her. "Theresa... What we're doing. It might be useless. Whatever we do, it could already be too late."
"We knew that when we started, Sandra. The wheels of fate have spun. The new awakening will come soon. We will have all the three talismans."
Seiya walks down the street, reading a book on the Infinity School. "Professor Moeto..."
Theresa watches him. "Are you investigating the Infinity School?" she asks. "The owner, Professor Moeto, is very famous. Of course, he was expelled from the academic society..."
"Expelled?"
"There's part of the Infinity School, called the magician training school. Do you know of it? I wonder if it's because very versatile people attend it. Or else..."
A girl approaches them. "Excuse me..." she said. "Are you the violinist, Theresa-san?"
"Yeah."
"Wow! I'm a fan! Please sign this for me!"
Theresa takes the girl's signature board.
"The violinist, Theresa..." Seiya said. "Then, are you one of the versatile magicians too?"
"That's right," said Theresa. "I'm having a concert soon. I'll give you some tickets."
Kurai sees the two from a distance. "That's... Seiya?" she thought. "Why are they... together? She's one of the people we're watching. What are they talking about? Seiya?" She envisions the face of the shadowed sailor soldier. "That person..."
Kurai enters the Crown Game Center. She screams as someone yanks on one of her ponytails.
"Hey there!" Sandra said. "We meet again. Do you come here often?"
Kurai envisions the face of the soldier. "Sandra-san... She looked like... that masked soldier from before."
"Hey," she said. "Are you... a sailor soldier?"
Sandra's eyes widen. "What?" he said. "What's that? A sailor soldier?"
"I like the sound of that," Sandra said. "A soldier. Fighting. Do you and your friends all fight together?"
"Fight together!?" Kurai said.
"Don't go near Kurai!" voices call.
Sandra turns and saw the Fallen. "Hmph..."

"A comet's heading for Earth!?" Mana said.
"Could it be...?" Reiko said. "The comet Kurai and Seiya were talking about at the party!?"
"Colliding with a heavenly body 10 kilometers in diameter..." said Ava. "The probability is one in a million of something like that happening."
Xxx
"A comet is going to collide with Earth?" Kurai said.
"They calculated its orbit," Seiya spoke. "Since its discovery, its orbit has changed, and now it's heading right for Earth! And it resembles your painting!"
"I see," Kurai said.
Seiya looked at her. "The comet's brilliance..." he said. "It's fading away. I can't see it anymore. Be relieved! It looked like it's gone."
"It's gone!" Kurai said. "Just now!"
"It must have burned up."
Ninako smiled. She looked at her bandage from Lizzie.
Xxx
"I don't believe it," Lizzie said. "Princess Snow Kaguya suddenly disappeared."
"That's surprising," said Souchi. "Very."
"We'll announce that it burned up abruptly when it approached the sun. It happens often. We shouldn't cause a big commotion. I didn't see a meteor shower. Strange... If it burned up, we should have seen one." Lizzie said.
"It's too bad you couldn't see the remains of the Princess, Lizzie." Souichi said.
"She's here," thought Ninako as she looked in the window. "Lizzie. I'll just return the handkerchief I borrowed." She slid it in.
Lizzie went to the window. "Ninako?"
Ninako jumped down. "Oh no! You saw me!"
"Come with me, Nina." Lizzie led her into the manor. "It burned up and disappeared. That's too bad."
"I'm inside your room again," Ninako said.
"What?" Lizzie said. She took the handkerchief from her. "This... Is this the handkerchief I bandaged your injury with? Amazing."
"Yes it's all healed now." Ninako said, sitting on her bed.
Lizzie removed a snow crystal and put it in a Petri dish.
"A crystal? It's shaped like a snowflake." Ninako said.
"It was in my eye." Lizzie looked unconcerned. "It looked like the comet and this piece just fell from the moon. It could be a lost article of Princess Kaguya. I believe Princess Kaguya lives on the moon."
"Is that why you named the comet 'Princess Snow Kaguya'?" A male asks.
Lizzie turned around. "Father!"
"Oh," Ninako tensed. "Hello Mr Moeto."
"You just talk about things in dreams," said Souchi. "That's why you're called ditzy by everybody. Even though you're a scientist."
"Souchi! Lizzie!" A Scientist called. "The meeting is starting!"
Lizzie got up to follow after her father.
A pain struck her in the chest, and she dropped to her knees.
"Lizzie!" Ninako cried. She ran to her.
"It's all right, Ninako," she said. "I get dizzy standing... That yellow ribbon tied to the bag of rice sugar candy. It would suit you."
She took the yellow ribbon off the bag and tied it around Ninako's neck.
"I'll come see you again, Lizzie." Ninako kissed her forehead.
