Finale
Eternal Bonds! Everlasting Love!
Rini and Sarah come off of the bus. Rini runs over to Darien, who hugs her. Tina gasps and bursts into tears, seeing Sarah coming out of the bus, too.
"Sarah? SARAH!" Tina bursts.
"Big sis!" Sarah smiles.
Tina goes up to Sarah and gives her a big hug. The others that are with her are so happy that Tina can finally be with Sarah, again.
"What a happy reunion." Serena says, shedding a tear.
"It's unexpected that we would see Sarah this way. I thought we would see her with those girls." Ethan figures.
"I think... they may have had Sarah meet up with Rini, first." Raye guesses.
"I wonder why this is." Shadow ponders.
"What a lovely surprise to come to." Tina expresses, letting go of Sarah.
"Reimu, Marisa, and Sanae do still want to see you, big sis. They'll be coming by at noon, tomorrow." Sarah informs.
"I do wish to see them. I have a lot to say to them. But for now, you and I are going to spend lots of time together. I'm sorry, everyone, but I need to leave you to take Sarah home." Tina apologizes.
"Go ahead, Tina. Sarah has been dying to be with you!" Rini insists.
"Go on. We'll see you both, tomorrow." Serena understands.
"Thanks. Let's go, Sarah! I'll make your favorite food, tonight." Tina informs.
"Yaaaaay!" Sarah cheers.
Tina grabs Sarah's hand as they head off to Tina's house.
"By the way, Rini, when did you meet up with Sarah?" Sylvester asks.
"I was grabbing my hat that flew off cause of the wind, then I think I saw this sparking light, and then as I was getting my hat, there she was. I think she said she came to see me and spend time with me because Sanae saw her along on the way to see Tina." Rini explains.
"Must be a promise you two made, then." Shadow figures.
"How did you know?" Rini gasps.
"Let's just say that... promises resonate with me." Shadow smiles.
"Come on, you guys, let's head to my house. Mom's baking apple pies tonight, and I know how much you guys love it!" Serena expresses joyfully.
Everybody heads to Serena and Rini's home.
"Hope we can get a taste of some pie, too." Sylvester desires.
"Putty tat looooves sweets!" Tweety says.
"Me, too. I really loooove sweets! And so does Sarah." Rini expresses.
"What kid doesn't at least like sweets?" Thomas chuckles.
The next day, everybody is hanging out at Raye's shrine. The girls all talk to one another, the pets and Shadow relax, Thomas and Darien are conversing, and Rini and Sarah are playing Versus Mode of Danmaku Magicians. Rini is currently playing as Sanae, while Sarah is Marisa.
"Come on, I almost got you." Rini proclaims.
"Level 4 Special... Master Spark! Yeah!" Sarah cheers.
"Noooo! I got hit! I lose..." Rini sweatdrops.
"This game is really cool, Rini. It's almost like the girls I got to know in Gensokyo have been turned in video game characters perfectly!" Sarah admires.
"Tina has gotten those powers from the girls." Rini recalls.
"It also helps that she's been into video games for years. I'm happy that she's making a living out of them." Sarah smiles.
"Me, too. So, what was it like staying at her house?" Rini asks.
"It's almost like living at a fancy mansion! Of course, its size is nothing compared to this one mansion I saw and stayed in." Sarah compares.
"What's it like?" Rini asks.
"Well, it's the home of Patchouli, one of the playable characters of this game. And she lives in a huuuuge library! It's the first place Marisa took me to with her tour." Sarah describes.
"How big are we talking? And how many books does it have?" Rini wonders.
"You're not gonna believe the number..." Sarah begins to tell.
"What? You want Thomas to move out of my house?" Lita gasps.
"I feel like I'm ready, Lita. Ready for us to take it to the next level. We're not ready for marriage, but I do feel like he should be staying at my place from now on. It'll be lively... especially with Sarah moving in as well." Tina smiles.
"Want to take Rini with you?" Serena grins.
"Serena..." Raye becomes baffled.
"No matter how much Rini loves me and has started to really like Sarah, I don't think she would want to move out of your home. I mean... she is your future daughter, and... I would feel awful taking her away from you like that." Tina frowns.
"I was kidding, anyway. I'm truly feeling like she is one of my own, you know? I want to make sure Rini is happy as long as she wishes to stay here." Serena desires.
"But... don't you think she would have to return back to her parents in the future eventually?" Mina asks.
"Yeah. And it's not gonna be pretty when the time comes. I mean, there's so many she would have to say goodbye to. I don't know if she would be willing to leave." Serena ponders.
"Her parents are important to her, too, though." Amy says.
"Hopefully it's not anytime soon. I would want for her and Sarah to have more fun together. I mean... just look at them, now, playing my game and having so much fun." Tina points.
"They do look happy." Lita sees.
"Ohhh... now I have the itch to play, too. I still have yet to unlock the secret unlockables. Phantasm is so hard..." Serena groans.
"You want me to tell you what you get?" Tina asks.
"Yes! So, I can be more motivated to play when I do play it again." Serena accepts.
"In that case, you get Reimu and Sanae as fully playable characters with their own campaigns, and available in all game moves. And if you beat both of their campaigns in Phantasm mode, you unlock a 4th option for each character in every game mode. They are unique, and are based on... well, all of you girls." Tina reveals.
"Huh? All of us?" Serena wonders.
"All of you as Sailor Scouts have your attributes and scout moves as shot options and spell options. Reimu has Sailor Moon, Marisa has Sailor Jupiter, Sanae has Sailor Mars, Alice has Sailor Venus, and Patchouli has Sailor Mercury." Tina explains.
"The only one that doesn't make sense is you being Sanae, Raye. I mean... she mostly uses water moves, and you use fire. Plus, her abilities and personality does not match yours at all!" Serena compares.
"At least we're shrine maidens." Raye points out.
"To think that we would make cameos in a video game." Lita admires.
"Why don't you make video games out of us, Tina?" Raye suggests.
"Yeah! That could be so cool! Having us team up and fight bad guys using our scout abilities and powers would be a lot of fun to play!" Mina desires.
"Mmm... that could work as my next gaming series. I can relive your adventures as Sailor Scouts in game form. I will need help in hearing about your past adventures, though." Tina smiles.
"Ooooh! I'm already excited for the next game!" Serena giggles.
"Maybe I should make it an RPG series..." Tina mumbles.
An hour later, Serena is now playing Danmaku Magicians, Rini and Sarah spend time with Tina, and a familiar feminine voice rings across the shrine.
"Hellooooooo! Are my heroic saviors... hanging out in the shrine?" The girl calls.
"That voice!" Mina recognizes.
She opens the door and reveals herself. It's Mimet!
"Mimet!" Tina exclaims.
"Yo, Serena, Mimet's here!" Mina calls.
"Mimet?" Serena hears, gets up from her game, and goes up to her. "Hey, long time no see!"
"Sailor Moon! Or should I say Serena! It is wonderful to see you!" Mimet smiles and shakes her hand.
"You're in a real good mood today, aren't ya?" Serena notices.
"Well, I'm not here just to see you all. I have great news to share! I'm going to Hollywood!" Mimet announces.
"Hollywood?!" Most of the others express.
"Living in the limelight, aren't we?" Thomas grins.
"And then some. I am going to star as the lead role in an upcoming blockbuster romantic/drama movie. I'm living my dreams with nothing to stand in my way!" Mimet gleams.
"Well, we've taken care of all of the Heart Snatchers, so there's nothing to worry about with them, anymore." Shadow informs.
"You go and do your thang, girl!" Tweety smiles.
"I will, sweetie Tweety! Hee hee! I just wanted to say thank you one more time from saving me from eternal loneliness. And that I will be off to Hollywood in a month from now!" Mimet informs.
"You make sure to find the true love of your life, Mimet. And never let him go once you do." Tina hopes.
"It's one of my most desired dreams." Mimet blushes. "Well, wish me luck, and I hope that you come see my movie once it's completed."
"You bet we will, Mimet. Good luck!" Mina wishes.
With everyone else saying goodbye and wishing Mimet with good fortune, Mimet is off to fulfill her dreams.
It is now noon. A bright light shines that everyone in the shrine notices.
"This light... can it be?" Thomas wonders.
"I really hope it's them. Let's go, everyone!" Tina calls.
After the light fades, everyone in the shrine heads out to meet with Reimu, Marisa, and Sanae, the Touhou Heroines from Gensokyo.
"It's you girls! I was wondering when you arrive!" Tina greets.
"We just wanted to make sure that you got to spend your time with your sis." Marisa says.
"You did get to do that, right?" Reimu asks.
"And then some! I heard that she came and spent time with Rini?" Tina asks for confirmation.
"It was my idea. The two did made a promise to spend time together after all. I haven't forgotten!" Sanae says.
"Yeah! And we had a great time, together. We got to ride bicycles around, and I've been hearing about some of her favorite moments in Gensokyo." Rini smiles.
"A real Gensokyo incident had occurred while I was there. There were all of these UFOs around the skies. And I saw this reeeeally big ship that was flying, even though it looked like a sea ship." Sarah describes.
"And it was the three of us that resolved it. Didn't expect there to be another religious figure leading over them, though." Reimu recalls.
"Byakuren was heavily into physical combat despite being highly magical. That caught me off guard with that one Spell Card she used." Marisa expresses.
"Let me give you what we've learned from that recent incident, Tina. I assume you'll be continuing your role as Sailor Heart?" Reimu wonders.
"You'll never know what could happen." Tina says.
"Ain't that the truth. Here you go!" Reimu says, as she begins to give Tina more power from their recent opponents.
"So speaking of blessings, did you get to use the new powers I gave you, Rini?" Sanae asks.
"You bet I did! I was able to use my new healing magic for somebody close to me. And my more new powerful attack was super useful!" Rini confirms.
"I'm so happy to hear that. It truly is a miracle that you all managed to take down those Heart Snatchers." Sanae says.
"We got to see some of the action you guys did thanks to Yukari. And boy, you guys kicked some butt!" Marisa grins.
"Although, you did have some trouble, too." Sanae had noticed.
"Lots and lots of trouble. To have everything work out as it did was all thanks to everyone's efforts." Serena feels.
"The true, miraculous power of teamwork! We should do that more often, too." Sanae desires.
"If Sailor Heart is anything to go by, I suppose it wouldn't hurt to try. Speaking of which, the transfer is complete." Reimu informs.
"Thank you. By the way, since I've given you all my two games, how were they?" Tina asks.
"You nailed our abilities so well, that I was shocked at how accurate our power levels were in those games." Marisa compliments.
"It was still quite difficult despite quickly learning how the game works." Sanae comments.
"I'll say one thing. Going back to these games helps so much from getting bored." Reimu smiles.
"Well, this will help you really not get bored anytime soon. Here!" Tina gives a bag and copies of Danmaku Magicians to Marisa.
"... Whoa! Are these more of your games?" Marisa looks.
"The third game in the series, Danmaku Magicians. The main stars are you, Marisa, Alice, and Patchouli. Though, you two are in the game as well. They require a lot of effort to unlock, however, outside of one game mode." Tina explains.
"Sweet! I'm the star this time! And I'm so looking forward to seeing how you interpret Alice and Patchouli!" Marisa anticipates.
"Do you mind if you... could spare of few more copies of your handheld devices and each of your games? A few of our friends, including youkai friends, are interested in trying them out." Sanae asks.
"And now that Alice and Patchouli are playable, I really want to give at least those games to them." Marisa adds.
"Sure. For the ones who gave me these life saving powers, it would be my pleasure to give you more copies. Ohh, Thomas?" Tina calls.
"Yes, my love?" Thomas listens.
"Head to my house, and go to my storage room. I have plenty of personal copies of the handhelds and each of the games in there. I think... five copies of each handheld system and game should do." Tina requests.
"I'll be back in a jiffy!" Thomas accepts, using Chaos Control to teleport there.
"It truly is all over for you guys. I'm so glad we helped you and your world with Sailor Heart." Sanae smiles.
"Did you... lose anything or anyone important in your life coming this far?" Reimu asks.
"In the grand scheme, we have not. Sure, some lives have been impacted, but they are all still there, just in different shapes and locations." Shadow answers.
"Just being there, and being able to help and even save many lives have been far more than worthwhile for us." Raye smiles.
"And no matter what happens going forward, our bonds, our connections with one another, will always be close." Lita adds.
"You guys are amazing, and very strong. Makes me wonder if you could beat any of us in a battle. I would like to try my hand on your boyfriend Saiyan, Tina!" Marisa grins.
"Heh... that's a battle I want to see. Maybe in the future." Tina chuckles.
Thomas teleports with a large bag in hand. Sanae takes the small bag of their own games Marisa was carrying, so that Marisa could take the large bag from Tina.
"Thank you all... for everything." Marisa expresses.
"And thank you for coming to see us!" Serena feels.
"Will you be seeing us, again?" Tina wonders.
"You bet we will!" Marisa confirms.
"We'll be stopping by from time to time. And... if you ever need some personal help from us, we might just be there for you all." Sanae offers.
"Yukari gave us the okay to do that, should even more dangerous foes come to you all." Reimu informs.
"It's good to have more allies on our side." Darien comments.
"Ohh, yes. If you want to come to Gensokyo, Tina, you can. Let me give you this." Reimu offers.
Reimu gives Tina a phone with the colors and design of a Yin-Ying orb.
"This gives you access to me. When you call me, preferably during the daytime, I can send you over to Gensokyo. You'll start at my shrine. And you can freely use your Sailor Scout powers while in there. There's no reason to keep your identity a secret when you're around powerful Youkai." Reimu explains.
"Good to know. Thank you, Reimu." Tina expresses.
"Let's have some tea when you come see me." Reimu offers. "And I hope you bring some of your friends along, too."
"I'll definitely be there." Raye assures.
"Now, it's time for us to go. Can't wait to get into the next game!" Marisa smiles.
"Sarah, enjoy yourself with your sister once more, alongside the people around her. If you get into real trouble, just say a prayer, and we'll certainly be there to protect you." Sanae says.
"Thank you, Sanae. And thank you girls for a magical, exciting time in your world!" Sarah says in a cheerful tone.
"A lot of our friends will miss you, but I know you'll be back to see them again, someday." Marisa figures.
"Bye, you guys!" Rini waves.
"Farewell!" Reimu waves.
Waving goodbye to everyone, the three girls return to Gensokyo in a flash of light.
'A part of all of you will be with me, and within Sailor Heart, forever. Thank you for everything, girls. I'll see you again, someday.' Tina wishes.
At night, Serena and Darien are in the balcony at Darien's house, looking over the moon.
"Doesn't the moon look beautiful, tonight?" Serena asks.
"Yes." Darien agrees.
"It's peaceful." Serena adds.
"Yeah, it's nice. I love a peaceful night." Darien says.
"Darien?" Serena looks at Darien.
"Mmhmm?" Darien looks at Serena.
"Well, aren't you... aren't you a bit chilly at all?" Serena blushes with a touch of embarrassment.
"A little." Darien answers.
"I just want... to keep you warm, Darien." Serena anticipates in a certain way.
He was thinking about going inside and making Serena some hot chocolate, but getting a bit of advice from Thomas with his time with Tina, Darien takes a hold of Serena.
Serena, feeling like he read her mind, giggles and dreamily gleams. 'Ohhh, Darien...'
One week later, Rini is currently having a sleepover at Tina's house, to be with both Tina and Sarah. Looking out an open window, both Sarah and Rini look up at the night sky, tonight.
"Look at all the pretty stars." Rini admires.
"It's a beautiful night." Sarah agrees.
"What were the nights like in Gensokyo, Sarah?" Rini asks.
"I slept outdoors from time to time, so I got to see lots of stars out many times." Sarah says.
"Do Youkai like to be out during the day or night?" Rini wonders.
"More of them like the night, more, but a lot of them come during the day if they want to go see some of the people they made friends with... like Reimu." Sarah answers.
"But... didn't you tell me in one of your stories that Reimu and her friends defeated the Youkai? Aren't they enemies?" Rini recalls.
"According to what Reimu told me, once she or one of her friends defeat Youkai, while the Youkai are in full power in a danmaku battle, they become friends with one another. Most of the Youkai aren't evil like the Heart Snatchers. They just want to prove their power to others." Sarah clarifies.
"I wish it was like that for us. We defeat a Heart Snatcher, and they wanted to be friends with us." Rini thinks.
"Well, you got one friend from the Heart Snatchers, didn't you?" Sarah recalls.
"Yeah. And I hope Mimet has fun in her life and not try to be bad." Rini desires.
"I hope so, too." Sarah mirrors.
The two gasp as they see a pink envelope appear from a pink light and float down near Rini.
"Huh? A letter?" Sarah sees, with Rini grabbing the envelope.
"I recognize the design. I think this is from my parents!" Rini figures.
"Your parents... you mean Serena and Darien of the future?" Sarah recalls.
"Yeah. Let's see what it says." Rini confirms.
Rini opens the letter and begins reading it.
"That picture... it does look like Serena. It is from your parents." Sarah notices.
"Hi, sweetie. We miss you terribly and would love for you to come back home. Hope you're okay. Can't wait to see you and your smile. Love, Mommy and Daddy." Rini reads.
"Your mommy and daddy want to see you, Rini. Ohhh... but, that means that you have to go." Sarah frowns.
"Mommy... Daddy..." Rini recalls some of her fondest memories with her parents.
Walking over with cups of hot chocolate, Tina calls, "Sarah, Rini... the cocoa's ready! You want some, my sweeties?"
"..." Sarah continues to frown.
"..." Rini is in deep thought.
"Huh? What's with the sour faces?" Tina asks.
"Tina, I've gotten a letter. You should read it." Rini insists.
Tina sets the tray down near them and takes the letter. "A letter? Who's it from?"
"My parents." Rini answers.
"Your parents? Let me see..." After reading the letter, Tina gasps and becomes in total shock, "Ohh, Rini..."
Rini sighs and doesn't know what to do. Sarah closes the window, then suggests, "Rini, why don't we drink the cocoa before it gets too cool?"
"Okay." Rini answers in a sad tone.
As the two drink the cocoa, Tina thinks, 'Everybody needs to know. I'll have Tweety send the letter to Serena at Raye's place, tomorrow.'
The next day, everyone but Tina, Sarah, Rini, and Darien are at Raye's shrine. Tweety gives the letter to Serena, who informs everyone else about its contents.
"So, it's a letter from Rini's parents, huh?" Thomas says.
"And they're telling her to come back home." Shadow adds.
"Poor Rini. Tina told me that Rini was so sad when she got that letter." Tweety informs.
"I'm sure she probably misses her parents." Raye figures.
"At the same time, she loves all of us so very much." Mina says.
"And she just got to know Sarah, too. This must be extra hard for her." Sylvester adds.
"Ohh, and just before I left... this morning, Tina told me to tell you guys about what Rini is currently thinking." Tweety informs.
Tweety tells them what Rini would say if she was here. "I don't have to leave right away. I'm sure I can go back whenever I wanted."
"Her thoughts are vague. She didn't mention anything about not wanting to leave Tina or Sarah or... any of us?" Thomas asks.
"No. That's all Rini said, according to what Tina told me." Tweety denies.
"I think she misses her parents... far more than she lets on." Lita figures.
"But I get what she might be struggling over. Look at how many of us she would have to leave behind. Who would be her most important people she has in her life, now, not counting Hotaru?" Shadow asks.
"Well there's me and Darien, there's Tina, there's Tweety, there's Sarah, now... and I feel like she connects with you as well, Shadow, because of both of your connections with Hotaru." Serena names.
"That is true." Shadow agrees.
"I'm not even sure if Tina is at Rini's future. Not me or Shadow, of course, because we come from other worlds." Thomas ponders.
"She's from our world, though." Mina says.
"True... but I'm certain that things are way different because she wasn't a sailor scout in your future. Isn't that right?" Thomas points out.
"That sounds about right. I don't recall anything about Sailor Heart from the future." Luna agrees.
"Not only would Rini be leaving behind all of us, but now she has to consider those that made our lives impactful that would not be the case in her future." Artemis says.
"This is tough. I don't know what I would do if I were in Rini's shoes." Lita frowns.
The group ponders over what to do with Rini.
"Since the world is safe again, shouldn't she go back?" Amy asks.
"Yeah. She should probably be with her parents." Mina agrees.
"She'll have to decide herself is she wants to go. We shouldn't blame her if she decides against leaving us for right now." Thomas says.
"Just in case... we should send her off with a good memory." Raye wishes.
"We can do a fun blowout thing she won't forget!" Lita suggests.
"Any ideas, Serena?" Sylvester asks.
"How about... a farewell party?" Serena suggests.
"Great idea!" Shadow nods.
"I think so, too." Amy agrees.
"So... where do we start?" Mina wonders.
"We'll need lots of food. Tina and I can take care of that!" Lita offers.
"What about where we should have the party?" Artemis asks.
"What about Darien's place? What do you think, Serena?" Luna asks.
"I know Darien would be up for it. Of course, I would like for the party to take place in a location that's more... spacious." Serena ponders.
"Then how does Tina's place sound?" Thomas suggests.
"Yeah! Not many of us got to even see Tina's house." Raye agrees.
"It'll be extra special for Rini's potential going away party!" Mina cheers.
"It's important that we ask Rini if she even wants this party, though. She might not want to go back home. And putting the pressure on her like that is a bad idea." Shadow cautions.
"I'll ask Rini and hear what she has to say." Serena volunteers.
Serena and Luna meet up with Rini at the playground, with the two sitting on swings, and Luna sitting next to Rini.
"A farewell party?" Rini hears.
"Yeah. We plan to have it at Tina's place, tomorrow. A lot of our friends haven't been there, before, so it'll be extra special!" Serena nods.
'So soon? I haven't even decided if I wanted to go, yet!' Rini frowns in thought.
"We really thought that you'd like to have a party." Serena says.
"It'll be brilliant, Rini. The party is all on your honor and you'll have lots of fun. Just you wait and see." Luna says.
"You can't wait... for me to go back." Rini says in an upsetting tone.
"Huh?" Serena and Luna express.
"Forget it!" Rini shouts, runs off disheartened.
"Rini!" Luna calls.
"Hmm... maybe we should have told her that the party was optional." Serena ponders.
"What she said... she thinks that we're trying to get rid of her!" Luna thinks.
"Ohh, Rini, that's far from true." Serena frowns.
'Serena doesn't understand. She knows that if I go back to the future, I won't be able to see her, or Darien, or Sarah, or Tina... or the others, and that I'll miss them so much!' Rini thinks in her mind, as she briefly stops for a prayer. 'If I could ask for a wish from Sanae, is that I could be in both places at the same time...'
Tears begin flowing from Rini's eyes.
"This stinks... This isn't fair. I don't like this." Rini sobs. "This is not fair at aaaaaall... Not fair!"
Rini cries out in despair.
And back at home, Serena searches in her drawer for something for Rini. Luna walks up to Serena.
"What are you doing, Serena?" Luna asks.
"Looking for a gift to give to Rini." Serena answers.
"We don't even know if she wants to have this party or not." Luna reminds.
"I know. At this point, though, most of us thinks she should go back and see her parents. If she wants to come back later, then we'll be waiting for her return. But, as her future daughter, I would want to see my child after so long. So, I think she should go. And that's why I'm getting her something to remember me by." Serena explains.
"You do make a good point. I wonder if that's your maternal instincts speaking." Luna guesses.
"How could I have maternal instincts if I've never been a mother? Anyway..." Serena continues to search.
"Serena, didn't you spend all of your money, recently? How are you going to get a present without any money? I hope you aren't thinking about asking Tina!" Luna questions.
"Of course not. I am not ready to start paying back from people I borrow. And I already got so many free gifts from the games she has given me. I would feel awful if I asked her for her money." Serena searches, then finds a red shirt with a white bowtie. "Hey, look at this! This was when I was a little girl. And Rini was also able to wear it for a little while."
"Hmmm..." Luna ponders on her gift idea.
Tina and Sarah return back from the supermarket with bags in their hands.
"Rini is gonna looove the ice cream you're going to make, big sis!" Sarah smiles.
"Triple decker ice cream with sprinkles. I've just learned how to make fresh ice cream in a sweets recipe book I recently brought. And thanks to the money I'm receiving from my latest released game, I was able to buy an ice cream maker. Let's see how much you girls enjoy freshly made ice cream!" Tina smiles.
"Yaaaaay! Ice Cream in a cone! I love eating the cones, too. It's a good finisher with a bit of ice cream melted in it." Sarah joyfully expresses.
"Now, we've just got to wait until Rini gets back, then I can... Rini?" Tina sees.
Tina and Sarah look to see Rini sitting near their front door
"Rini?" Sarah calls.
"Tina... Sarah..." Rini frowns.
"What's wrong with Rini?" Sarah wonders.
"I think I know. We should bring her in. I think she wants to say something about that letter from her parents." Tina figures.
"Ohhh... you're probably right, big sis." Sarah agrees.
After putting their groceries away, Tina, Sarah, and Rini sit down together around a table.
"Alright, Rini. You looked down in the dumps, earlier. What's on your mind?" Tina wonders.
"Tina, Sarah... I don't think any of the others really like me at all!" Rini proclaims.
"Huh? Why would you say that? I haven't been here for very long, but I can already tell that everyone loves you so very much!" Sarah frowns.
"What even makes you think that?" Tina asks.
"Because they're planning to have a goodbye party for me. It's like they just can't wait to get rid of me." Rini thinks.
"We all love having you around, Rini. Not a single one of us... would ever think that of you. We didn't just storm in the Heart Snatchers' main headquarters just to rescue Hotaru. All of us were so sad when your pure heart was taken." Tina reminds.
"Really?" Rini wonders.
"Honest." Tina nods.
"If that's the case, then... wouldn't they want me to stay?" Rini figures.
"You miss your mommy and daddy, right?" Sarah asks.
"Yeah. I haven't seen them in a long time, not since I came here. And you were there as Sailor Heart when we first met, Tina." Rini nods.
"Well, technically, it was more of an acknowledgment than a meeting. We met not too long afterwards. Remember... it was also when you met Thomas?" Tina recalls.
"Yeah... he was wearing that weird gold kimono." Rini sweatdrops.
"I was still baffled by what Karai chose for him. It did not suit him." Tina thinks.
"Ohh, yeah. I need a kimono, myself, big sis." Sarah realizes.
"We can pick one up later. Anyway... Rini, I think you're probably reading too much into what the others were thinking about when they came up with giving you a farewell party." Tina says.
"Huh?" Rini wonders what she meant.
"You're from the future. You're not even supposed to be in this timeline normally, not until Serena and Darien have you years from now. I know they want you to stay here. In fact, I'm even certain they respect whatever you desire to do." Tina figures.
"..." Sarah becomes silent in thought.
"But, you still have parents to go back to. And you do need to be with them. They miss you dearly after all. And you miss them just as much. They feel the best thing for you right now is to be with your mommy and daddy." Tina says.
"I wanted to come back to my sister, but I couldn't. And I missed being with her so much. It was fun being at Gensokyo, and I made many friends, but... your family should be the closest thing to you." Sarah compares.
"Even though Serena and Darien of this time are technically your family, and even though I love you as a sister, there's nothing better than being with your direct family... of your time." Tina suggests.
"Mmm..." Rini ponders for a bit, then nods. "I understand. Especially... when in the past, I couldn't return to my parents, because my mommy was in real danger, and I needed to go to the past to find help. I was not a good kid back then, but..."
"You did it because of your parents. I can understand your reasoning. But, you learned to trust others more, and realized that they love you, too. And regardless of where you go or how long you are gone, our love for you is forever, Rini." Tina sheds a few tears.
"Big sis..." Sarah notices.
"... Tina!" Rini sobs.
Rini starts to cry as she runs over to hug Tina. Tina gently embraces Rini as she cries, too.
"We're gonna miss you, Rini. I wish we had more time to spend with you..." Sarah sheds a few tears, realizing of the decision Rini will be making.
With the two of them feeling tired after their crying, Rini and Sarah both fall asleep beside each other in the couch. Tina had covered their bodies with a blanket. Tina makes a late night call with Serena, while sitting in a table nearby the two. Serena, meanwhile, while talking to Tina, is making a present using the shirt she found earlier in combination with something else by knitting.
"And you were all in tears?" Serena asks.
"Yeah. It was just a misinterpretation. I didn't really believe she thought that's what you were all thinking of her. She was likely just confused as to why you wanted her to leave." Tina says.
"Well, as her future mother, I thought more about all of this, and... I feel like I would want to see my daughter after so long, and spend time with her. Ohhh... I gotta finish this thing." Serena comments.
"You working on your gift?" Tina guesses.
"Yep. Trying to knit, it's- owwww! It's harder than I thought it would be. Owwuch! Stupid needle..." Serena sweatdrops.
"Hahaha! Well, glad to see you going all in for Rini, Serena." Tina giggles.
"I would do it again in a heartbeat. So, is Rini asleep, now?" Serena asks.
"Yep. Sarah is, too. You should see them, right now. They are just the cutest sweeties sleeping together. If I could take a picture and show it to you, I would!" Tina admires.
"I can imagine." Serena chuckles.
"..." Tina frowns in thought.
"... Say, Tina?" Serena wonders something.
"Yeah, Serena?" Tina says.
"When Rini leaves, will you feel like you're going to be a lot lonelier?" Serena asks.
"A little. It would be sad, of course. Rini is like a little sister to me. And Sarah... she's so happy to be with Rini, too. I've heard from Sarah as she was dressing herself in night clothes. She... she wishes to love Rini like a sister, too." Tina hears.
"Ohhh..." Serena moans in sadness.
"But, it won't be all bad. I mean sure, I still have Thomas, but now... I have Sarah back. Would I want Rini to stay? Absolutely! But even if she does leave, I still have Sarah. Rini fully fulfilled the role I had missed in my life for so long. I can go on without her, should it come to it. And you can too, Serena. Well, at least in the immediate future. I do wonder when you and Darien... hee hee hee hee." Tina giggles with a blush.
"Unnng?" Serena blushes wildly. "Hey! Don't bring that up! Ohhhh... I am definitely not ready for Darien and I to go all out! Owww... Geez..."
"I'm just teasing, Serena." Tina smiles.
"Hmmm... you know, it will be one of the happiest moments of my life when I do make Rini one day." Serena smiles.
"Say, uhhh... do you think there might any other children you and Darien might have?" Tina blushes in thought.
"... WHAT DID YOU SAY?" Serena then accidentally pushes the needle into her finger firmer than usual. "OWWWWWWWWW!"
While our Heroes are enjoying their peaceful lives because the ones who created the Heart Snatchers are gone, it seems as though it is not entirely the case. In a stormy night, near the area where the Mugen School once was, the Heart Snatcher Oven is still there, and still possibly functional.
Hundreds of Daimon Pods are cracked and broken. But, with a strike of lightning, one pod remains uncracked. It opens, and reveals one of those slimy monsters. Without proper energy from those who can produce and hatch these pods, however, this monster is pretty weak.
Regardless, it crawls over to the open oven, hoping to receive some power from it. The monster runs out of energy, however, so it sleeps near the oven for the night.
In the following morning, it wakes and makes it way into the oven, as it closes. And thanks to enough power from the lightning last night, the oven powers and creates a Daimon. But, because the oven doesn't have an outside source, the oven itself is what the monster is using as a base. Her name is Renji.
"Pure Hearts. I must collect... pure hearts!" Renji says.
During the same morning, Rini's farewell party celebration begins in Tina's house. Confetti is shot out by the girls, as everyone claps for Rini.
"We wish you all the best for a happy future." Amy says.
"Happy future!" Mina cheers.
They stop clapping.
"Time for some cake, baked by Tina and myself!" Lita winks.
"With a little help from me!" Sarah adds.
"Thank you." Rini says quietly.
"Ohhh, why the long face, Rini? Wishing you could be at both places at once? You know, the future is a lot closer than you think, and you can come back whenever you like." Serena attempts to support.
"And how would you know that, Serena?" Thomas raises an eyebrow.
"What are you, a time traveling expert or something?" Mina questions.
Serena sweatdrops. Raye intervenes, "Lighten up, Mina. She's just trying to cheer up Rini."
"Huh... Raye's actually sticking up for Serena. That's a rare sight." Tina comments.
"Hey... I can be nice, too, you know!" Raye pouts.
"Anyway, why don't we get to the gift giving?" Lita suggests.
"Gifts, yay! You're gonna receive lots of presents, Rini!" Sarah cheers.
"That's nice." Rini faintly smiles.
"We all got something for you, Rini." Sylvester informs.
"So, we hope you enjoy it!" Tweety adds.
"Alright. Lay it on me!" Rini smiles.
"Who's first?" Tina asks.
"I'll go!" Lita volunteers. "Here, Rini... I baked your favorite cookies."
Lita gives Rini a box of cookies wrapped in a bag.
"I hope they're not those lip shaped cookies you once made." Tina sweatdrops.
"I told the others that I was making those for my own sake and that they were what I had at the time. And if I had known, I wouldn't have made them shaped like lips!" Lita sweatdrops.
"Who even shapes their cookies like lips, anyway?" Thomas scratches his head.
"I won't be hearing your sass, Thomas! ... Anywho, I hope you enjoy them with your mom and dad. Just try not to crush them on your trip." Lita says.
"Trust me, she won't be like what I did." Tina sighs.
"It was an accident, Tina. And it was because you saw that meanie Kaorinite." Rini understands. "Either way, thank you very much, Lita."
"Rini, we actually made you something, too. From Tweety, Luna, Artemis, and I." Sylvester brings out a small poster wrapped up.
"Awww, you guys made me something, too? Let me see..." Rini says, unwrapping the poster.
It shows prints of Sylvester, Luna, and Artemis's paws, and Tweety's foot… and some writing on it by Sylvester, saying 'Our love to you, forever. From Sylvester, Tweety, Luna, and Artemis.'
"It's so cool!" Rini admires.
"It was a little embarrassing hearing that those two wanted us to be a part of their gift." Artemis admires.
"But, we were happy that we could be a part of your sending off, too." Luna says.
"Do you wuv it?" Tweety smiles.
"I do. Thank you all so much!" Rini smiles, petting the four pets one by one. "I'll make sure to hang it up at a nice spot at my room."
"How adorable!" Tina blushes a bit.
"Rini, I made this computer program." Amy says, showing Rini a floppy disk.
"How dorky. Don't you think of anything besides brain stuff?" Mina looks with a weirded out expression.
"Well, someone's being snarky, today." Thomas notices.
"Maybe you should try to exercise your brain as much as your wardrobe." Amy comments.
"Oooh... she just got you good!" Thomas grins.
"Mmmmmm..." Mina glares at Thomas, which makes him sweatdrop.
"It's good for Rini to learn to work hard and enjoy learning in school. It'll be easier for her. Besides, Mina, there's a fun game in here, too. It may not be as deep as any of Tina's games, but it's something that's more... chill compared to those games." Amy continues.
"Well, even on Easy Mode, it can still be a bit difficult to grasp the concept of dodging lots of bullets on screen. Still, she did have fun in Versus Mode, so it should be fine for her." Tina ponders.
"Your gift's great, Amy. Thank you." Rini accepts.
"I'll go, next. Here." Shadow gives Rini a picture of him, Thomas, and Hotaru together.
"It's Hotaru!" Rini gasps.
"We took this picture together sometime after the three of us went to the Space Colony ARK. It was Hotaru's idea. You'll never forget her face or her happiness." Shadow smiles.
"Thank you, Shadow. I'll always treasure it!" Rini smiles.
"I've put together a super hot tape of my songs I've recorded at my uncle's studio last night. The last song on my tape is my favorite, and I wrote it especially for you. I hope you dig it, Rini." Raye gives the tapes to Rini.
"I will. Thank you." Rini says.
"You know, up until today, I didn't know you were super into writing songs and singing, Raye." Tina learns.
"You think she should give up her career as a shrine maiden and become a singer?" Thomas asks.
"I can't tell if you're complimenting me or secretly dissing me?" Raye looks at Thomas with a concerned expression.
"Come on, now, I'm not truly that mean." Thomas frowns.
"Good or corny, my boyfriend loves cracking up a joke whenever he can." Tina giggles.
"I mean, have you seen how many times he puts on an act with our enemies?" Serena reminds.
"I still can't believe how far I went with my tickets being a police officer. I was having too much fun that day." Thomas recalls fondly.
"Anywhoodles, don't you have something for Rini, too, Thomas?" Tina nudges.
"But of course. Now to be frank, I did ask for a bit of help from Tina, but only with the money. I was a little short in what I needed. But, this is perfect for you, my little lady. Here, let me put it on you." Thomas presents.
Thomas puts a special necklace on Rini. It's a Sapphire bracelet with an alternation of moon and heart designs all around the bracelet, with a star design as the main piece.
"Ohhhh, wow! It's so beautiful!" Rini gleams.
"I had this designed by a specialized jeweler. The hearts represent Tina and the moons represent Serena. And the star... that's me. I'll always watch over you, no matter how far you go." Thomas explains.
"Thank you so much, Thomas! I'll keep it close to my heart!" Rini smiles warmly.
"Have you noticed that she's been enjoying the gifts of the others more than us sailor scouts?" Raye comments.
"It's almost like she's telling us that our gifts are lamer compared to theirs." Mina answers.
"Now, now, ladies... we don't and we shouldn't play favorites." Thomas waves his finger.
"Besides, it's not about the cost of the gifts, but how much you put your heart into it." Amy figures.
"Yeah. I don't care what you give me. As long as I know that you will miss me by giving me something, I'll be happy, even I don't show it right away." Rini assures.
"Good to hear, Rini." Lita smiles.
"In that case, then I think you'll really like this gift of mine, Rini. It's a photo album with a lot of great pictures of all of us. Just look... ta da!" Mina shows.
Opening the album, pictures include Rini with many of her friends and family in various scenarios, both good times and not so good times.
"All these happy memories we had together... Here you go, Rini." Mina gives the album to Rini.
"Cool. Thanks a lot, Mina." Rini smiles faintly.
"Rini? You remember our lockets, don't you?" Sarah asks.
"Yeah. Tina had one for herself, and I gave her one during her and Thomas's birthday. Ohh wait... don't you also have one?" Rini recalls.
"I do. Big sis and I updated all of our lockets to include that one picture the three of us took together a few days ago. She still has the Pink Locket you gave her, and she gave me the Red Locket that was her own. So now, I'll give you my Orange Locket as my gift to you." Sarah gives her orange colored locket to Rini.
"Ohh, wow! It's like we all have a big part of each other with each of our lockets! I love it, Sarah! Thank you!" Rini gives a hug to Sarah.
"You're welcome!" Sarah hugs Rini back.
"Okay, this is really starting to bug me." Mina sweatdrops.
"Don't worry, Mina, your gift means a lot to me, too. I can cherish all the memories I had with you all. And there's a lot of them." Rini assures.
"Well, if you say so, Rini." Mina smiles.
"Rini?" Darien calls.
"Huh? Yes, Darien?" Rini turns to Darien.
Darien brings out a rose that has yet to bloom.
"A red rose bud means purity and loveliness in the language of flowers. This perfect rose is just for you." Darien explains.
"Daddy..." Rini says fondly, as Darien gives the rose to Rini.
"Now don't tell me, Tina. You've spend a lot of your money from your games to give Rini the best present of them all!" Serena proclaims.
"No, Serena, I... I told Tina not to give me anything when it came to giving me stuff." Rini denies.
"Wha? ... Really?" Serena says with disbelief.
"Tina has already given me one of the best gifts I could ever receive next to gifts from my parents. Her love for me as a sister." Rini blushes.
"Ohh, Rini..." Tina gleams warmly.
"Truthfully, I haven't felt this much love from a family member since my parents. It's been so nice having a big sister to turn to. It's a different kind of love compared to one from parents, even though we all still love each other. I've really admired you ever since we first met. You were always so nice to me, and you treated me kindly at the times Serena did not." Rini clarifies.
"Sorry, Rini. I mean that." Serena apologizes from the heart.
"It's okay, Serena. When I was down, Tina, you were there so much for me. I heard you were really, really sad for me when my heart was stolen." Rini says.
"A lot more tears and sadness came from Tina than anybody else that day. Of course, it hurt her more than she probably wanted to be, literally." Thomas recalls.
"... My life feels more complete now that I have two little sisters to take care of. It won't be easy going back down to one." Tina sighs.
"This won't be the last time we see each other, Tina. I'll come visit. I want to see you, and Sarah, too." Rini desires.
"That's all I ask for, Rini." Tina smiles faintly.
"Well, topping that definitely is a tall order, but at least you can put most, if not all of your presents, in this!" Serena shows Rini a pink rabbit in a red dress with a blue bowtie, acting as a backpack.
"Ohhh... how cute!" Rini expresses.
"I know it's not very well made, but I hope you like it." Serena smiles.
"Wow, what a cute, little puppy you made, Serena. It looks good enough for me!" Raye admires.
"While I do appreciate the compliment, Raye, this is a rabbit, not a puppy!" Serena sweatdrops.
"Ohhh... I see it, now. It's got long, fluffy ears. Sorry." Raye sweatdrops.
"... I'll let it slide since you did compliment it." Serena glares.
"How about another one, then? I like what you made for Rini." Raye smiles.
"... Well, thank you." Serena blinks.
"Here, let me pack it up for you, Rini." Mina offers.
"Thanks." Rini accepts, giving the rabbit backpack to Mina.
"You know, Rini, Serena put a lot of thought and effort into making that bunny for you. I hope you like it." Luna wishes.
"I do. I really do..." Rini says, pondering in her thoughts.
"Something up, Rini?" Artemis asks.
"I do notice what all of my friends like to go through. From arguments, to making jokes, to doing or saying something ridiculous. But, no matter what happens, I know that we'll always be friends, we'll always be family, and we'll always love each other forever and forever!" Rini smiles.
Luna and Artemis admire Rini's answer, as the rest of the crew have fun with one another in various ways.
It was just about time to say goodbye. At night, everyone goes outside of Tina's house to see Rini off, with Serena's handmade bunny backpack on Rini, with all of her gifts.
"I'll say goodbye here. It'll just be easier." Rini insists.
Most of the others were a bit baffled by the decision, but go with it, anyway.
"Thank you all... for everything." Rini bows. "I love you all so much, and I'll miss you a lot."
"Take care and good luck in the future, Rini." Darien says.
"Even though Thomas, Tina, Sarah, and I are not a big part of your future, we will still forever be connected." Shadow states.
"You'll be happy being with your mom and dad again." Mina says.
"Say hi to everyone in the future for us." Amy says.
"It would be nice if you could write to us, just to hear how you're doing." Sylvester hopes.
"It's okay if you can't, though." Tweety adds.
"Take care of yourself." Lita wishes.
"The powers that you have will carry you to your future, so you should be fine for the most part." Thomas assures.
"Just as you will always have us in your memories, Rini, the same will be for us for you." Raye says.
"I wonder if I can be a sailor scout like my big sis, or even like you, Rini. That would be nice, wouldn't it?" Sarah ponders.
"Hahaha! We'll discuss that with the Gensokyian girls in the future. Rini... I hope you take the values of Friendship, Love, and Romance on over to your future, too." Tina desires.
"Romance..." Rini blushes briefly, thinking of her time she had with Massinori.
"..." Serena struggles on saying something to Rini.
"Serena?" Rini wonders about Serena, but sees that she can't say anything, and sheds a few tears.
"Rini..." Serena also feels the need to releases a few tears.
"Goodbye!" Rini sobs, as she runs off.
"Rini!" Serena runs off to her, too.
"Serena!" The other girls but Tina and Sarah call out to her.
"Wait!" Tina, shockingly, stops them.
The other girls become confused as to why she stops them.
"You're stopping them, Tina?" Shadow wonders.
"Give them some time alone. I feel like... Serena and Rini need this closure, together." Tina explains.
"Not with you, too, Tina?" Darien wonders.
"I've already had all that I needed to say and give to Rini. Same with Sarah. And since last night, and my phone call with Serena, this kind of opportunity is something I feel like the two of them need." Tina feels.
The other girls understand and allow the two their time alone together. Thomas gets a sudden sense of danger within him.
'This feeling... no. It can't be...' Thomas senses.
Rini ends up near a lake. She holds up her magic key, ready to head home.
"Chronos, guardian of time, open the door of time and space for me. Ohh, mysterious guardian of time, help me navigate back to the future. Take me home where I came from." Rini calls.
The swirly portal appears, and is about to lift Rini up back to her future.
"Please, guard me. Please light up the way and safely guide me through the long passage of time." Rini finishes.
A pink light appears. Serena makes it to Rini and calls her out, "Rini!"
Rini turns to Serena. "Huh? Serena!" Rini feels the need to tear up once again.
"Don't cry, Rini. You... you shouldn't cry. You're going back home... to your mom, and dad, two people that I know you'll be happy with. I know, because I love you very much, too." Serena sobs.
"Serena... we both like to cry a lot... don't we?" Rini sniffs.
"Yeah. I tried so hard to say goodbye without tears... but I can't. I can't, knowing that someone who I hold dear to me is about to leave. My sweetie, my precious Rini..." Serena expresses sadly.
The light pulls Rini up, as she is slowly leaving this time. Rini expresses, "Ohh, nooo! Serena, please don't forget me!"
"I would never. Even when I have you as my own, one day, I'll never forget you as the daughter/sister figure I've grown to love and cherish!" Serena smiles.
"Thank you, moon mommy. And goodbye!" Rini holds her hands out.
The two hold hands for a moment, before being nudged away by the light. Rini beams up back to the space-time area that takes her back to her future. Serena continues to look up where Rini once was, until a familiar voice calls to her.
"Serena!" Tina calls.
Turning to Tina, Serena says, "Yeah?"
"..." Tina notices Serena's tears. "... Rini's gone, isn't she?"
"Uh huh..." Serena nods.
"Well, ohhhh... I hate that I have to ruin this moment, because I do want you and I to cry over Rini being gone, now, but it's not the time for tears." Tina proclaims.
"Huh?" Serena wonders.
"You're not going to believe this. But... Thomas sensed that another Heart Snatcher has come alive, and is taking pure hearts now as we speak!" Tina warns.
"No..." Serena dries her tears.
"It's time we do this one last time, Serena. I know we can do this. Let's go!"
"Yeah!" Serena nods.
All of the girls transform into Sailor Scouts, Darien becomes Tuxedo Mask, and Thomas becomes Ethan. Everyone heads towards where the attack is taking place at.
"Sylvester, Tweety, keep Luna, Artemis, and Sarah safe while the rest of us beat down this heart taking monster!" Ethan plans.
"Roger!" Sylvester understands.
"Understood!" Tweety accepts.
"Be careful, sis." Sarah frowns.
"We can handle it, Sarah. Just watch us go into action!" Heart assures.
"Where is it?" Tuxedo Mask asks.
"Near where Mugen School used to be at." Ethan senses.
Renji takes pure hearts from all of the people nearby, and places them in a giant test tub.
Tuxedo Mask throws a rose at Renji, stopping her current heart snatching.
"Ehhh?" Renji wonders, turning to the arriving Heroes.
"You have some nerve waking up and coming alive to take all of these people's precious pure hearts, when we've already taken down all of the ones who made you monsters in the first place!" Ethan says in a frustrated tone.
"We won't be forgiving scum like you, Heart Snatcher!" Heart proclaims.
"You will pay for what you have done, you test tube terror!" Serena proclaims, then poses. "I stand for love and justice. I'm Sailor Moon!"
"Chaos will be conquered. I'm Shadow, Shadow the Hedgehog! The first Ultimate Lifeform." Shadow declares.
"Justice will prevail over all evil. I'm Ethan, the second Ultimate Lifeform, and this Saiyan is your worst nightmare!" Ethan declares.
"I'm Tuxedo Mask, defender of the people of earth!" Tuxedo Mask declares.
"I am Sailor Heart, and Friendship, Love, and Romance are what I stand for and protect!" Heart declares.
"And we're the Sailor Scout Team!" Mercury, Mars, Jupiter, and Venus declare.
"And in the name of the moon, punishment shall come your way!" Moon declares.
Renji goes right away to charge into them, but they all avoid it.
"Wow... someone has no cares about what we had to say..." Ethan sweatdrops.
"Pure hearts. I must have pure hearts!" Renji demands.
"Mercury, together!" Mars calls.
"Let's do it! Water Pledge!" Mercury prepares.
"Fire Pledge!" Mars prepares.
"Rainbow Attack!" The two attack together.
Mercury creates a column of water, while Mars creates a column of fire. The two combine together to form a rainbow that aims its forming at Renji. Renji jumps, but gets nicked by the rainbow.
Renji does a triple punch combo at Raye, knocking her back, then does a swift kick to send Mercury away.
Ethan teleports in front of Renji and does a series of punches at her. Renji blocks nearly every punch that comes his way. Finding an opening, Renji charges her punch and strikes Ethan at his chin, flinching him for a bit, before sending a charged up kick his way.
"Thunder Wave!" Jupiter performs.
Jupiter sends an electrical shockwave towards Renji. She avoids the attack and instead hits Ethan, paralyzing him.
"Ahhhhhh..." Ethan reacts.
"Oops! Sorry, Ethan..." Jupiter apologizes.
"Time for a trim!" Renji proclaims.
Renji opens up an area on her chest that would be for the oven and fires a heat beam, and hits a small part of Jupiter's hair, sizzling it.
"How dare you do that to a girl's hair, you jerk? Time to eat some spark power!" Heart attacks.
"And some Solar Power, too!" Venus adds.
Heart fires her Rainbow Love Spark, while Venus fires her Solar Beam. Stretching her arms, she finds a rock and moves herself out of the way of the beams, as they clash and explode.
"Huh? Where did she go?" Venus wonders.
Both Venus and Heart get caught off guard when Renji grabs them from each leg and drags them to crash into each other, sending them down to the ground.
Using his hover skates, Shadow moves in quickly to strike with a Shadow Punch. Renji sends both arms forward to attack Shadow, but he warps behind her and goes in to strike. But, anticipating his sneak attack, Renji had already prepared a heat beam to give Shadow a hot surprise.
With Ethan using Refresh to recover from Jupiter's unexpected paralysis, the rest of the Heroes get up to try again.
"Everyone's not doing so good." Sarah worries.
"I know they all can do it. We just have to believe they can." Sylvester says.
"Together, they're unstoppable!" Tweety adds.
"You saved everyone, big sis. I do still believe in you and everyone. Rini believes in you, too." Sarah prays.
Speaking of Rini, she's traveling through the space-time dimension to return home. While walking, she thinks about all of the precious friends and family she has made along her trip to the past. Her home, Crystal, Tokyo, is now just ahead of her.
"It's Crystal, Tokyo! Mommy... Daddy... I'm home!" Rini anticipates, finally making her way back to her home.
Alright, everyone... our plan is set. Let's go!" Ethan formulates.
"Fire Punch!" Mars attacks.
"Ice Punch!" Mercury attacks.
"Thunder Punch!" Jupiter attacks.
"Leaf Blade!" Venus attacks.
Each of the scouts charge in and to attack Renji one by one. Renji dodges the leaf powered slash from Venus, followed by the freezing strike from Mercury, then the electric knuckle from Jupiter, and finally the flaming fist from Mars.
"Esoterica Shining Star!" Heart performs.
"Haaa!" Tuxedo Mask also performs.
Distracted enough by the four girls, Heart sends out a circle induced star directly above Renji and beams down a light powered ray, while Tuxedo Mask sends a barrage of roses surrounding Renji, sending a light beam as well. The two beams collide around Renji, stunning her for a bit.
"Ahhhhh!" Renji reacts painfully.
"Let's do this, Shadow!" Ethan says, turning Super.
"You got it!" Shadow agrees, using Chaos Boost.
The two teleport near Renji from different sides.
"Double Chaos Lance!" The two Ultimate Lifeforms call.
They each gather chaos energy into their hands. Ethan releases golden-blue spears, while Shadow releases golden-red spears.
With an explosion of big damage, Renji gets pushed back, with the Heroes regrouping.
"Way to go, everyone! You can do it!" Sarah cheers.
"Had enough yet, oven butt?" Ethan smirks.
Renji gets up, takes a wire from the back of her, and breaks it apart, releasing electricity that she can use.
"It doesn't matter what kind of electricity you send at me. I can take it!" Jupiter proclaims.
In a rather clever move, however, she throws many electrically charge wires and throws it around Jupiter, and instead shocks all of the other Heroes with in.
Sarah and the pets gasp at the unexpected move.
With a rather powerful shock, with Ethan, Shadow, Heart, and Moon stood standing, the rest of the scouts fall to the ground.
"We've underestimated the intelligent level of her, you guys." Jupiter realizes.
Renji fires a heat beam at the rest who still stand, causing them all to fall to the ground.
"Ohh, noo!" Luna gasps.
"We're in trouble!" Artemis realizes.
Renji, seeing the others who have stood back, jumps very close to them, causing them to react with shock and fear.
"Now, we're in big trouble!" Sarah frowns.
"Stay away from Sarah and our cat friends!" Sylvester demands.
"You don't want to mess with puddy tat and I. We know karate!" Tweety warns.
Not giving a care about them, she swipes them aside with her extended arms and easily takes them down.
"Sylvester! Tweety!" Sarah calls.
"Artemis..." Luna worries.
"I won't let her harm you, Luna! Raaaaawr!" Artemis intimidates.
All Renji did in responding to Artemis's roar, however, is grab the both of them, looks at them for a few seconds, then throws them aside.
"Meowwwww..." Luna sweatdrops.
"Sorry, Luna. I tried..." Artemis apologizes.
Sarah begins to cry as Renji slowly approaches her.
"No... not my little sister. SARAH!" Heart calls in desperation.
"I... will have... your pure... HEART!" Renji cries.
"... SOMEBODY HEEEELP!" Sarah shouts.
"Pink Sugar Heart Attack! With Danmaku, too!" Mini-Moon calls.
Mini-Moon suddenly appears from the space-time portal and shoots out a combination of her original heart beam from her mini-scepter and heart danmaku from her other hand.
"AHHHHHHH!" Renji reacts in great pain and becomes pushed back hard by Mini-Moon's double dose of love.
"It's Mini-Moon!" The others notice.
"R-Rini?" Sarah calls.
"I... I couldn't just leave you all." Mini-Moon looks down for a few seconds, before pointing at Renji. "How dare you almost take my sister's heart away, you stinky, meanie Heart Snatcher?"
"Rini..." Sarah gleams.
"These people are my precious family! I'll never let you take anyone's pure heart! I stand for love, justice, and even romance! I'll stomp all over you! So, think of me as your nightmare in pink, you trashy has-been. I'm Sailor Mini-Moon. You have been judged in the name of the future moon, and your punishment shall be moon-dust!" Mini-Moon declares.
"Dang, girl! I think she has you beat over the sass meter, Venus!" Ethan jokes.
"I'm not sure how to feel about that." Venus sweatdrops.
"Or where she even got that from." Moon adds.
Renji, becoming incredibly upset, prepares a powerful heat beam to Mini-Moon.
"Uhh, ohh..." Mini-Moon panics.
"Brother, we need to hurry!" Shadow proclaims.
"Yeah! Let's go full force against her!" Ethan agrees.
Shadow and Ethan get up and shout, unleashing Shadow's Super form, and Ethan's Hyper Saiyan form.
Renji fires a bigger than usual heat beam towards Mini-Moon, causing her to scream in fear.
"Ahhhhhhhhh!" Mini-Moon screams.
"CHAOS CONTROL!" Shadow and Ethan perform.
They stop time all around them and everyone but the two are stuck in this frozen state.
"We could finish her right here, brother." Super Shadow suggests.
"We could... but, if I know Mini-Moon, she would want to be a big part of taking this freak down. Let's unfreeze everyone else." Ethan figures.
"Right!" Super Shadow agrees.
Using their Chaos energy, they add all of the others into the current time-freezing states.
"... ahhhhhhh... Huh?" Mini-Moon wonders.
"Whoa? What's happening?" Sarah looks around.
"Shadow, Ethan, you two are using Chaos Control!" Moon recognizes.
"In other words, time is frozen before our very eyes." Mercury describes.
"Wow! You two can do that?" Sarah gleams.
"There's a lot we can do, little lady." Ethan smiles.
"Hey, it's everyone okay?" Mini-Moon asks.
"A little rough around the edges, Mini-Moon, but we can still fight on." Heart smiles, getting up.
Everyone else gets up as well. All of the pets rejoin Sarah's side.
"Everyone, finish her off, together!" Sylvester suggests.
"With all of you together, you can truly do anything!" Luna adds.
"Will it still be enough... even without being able to go Super?" Moon wonders.
"Hmmm..." Tuxedo Mask ponders.
"Sailor Moon." Heart calls, holding her hand.
"Sailor Heart?" Moon wonders.
"No matter what you are, or how much power you have, at long as you have all of us together in your heart, you won't need that extra power." Heart assures.
"... You're right. I can do this without going Super. Because I have all of you with me!" Moon cheers.
"Sailor Moon!" The other scouts rally from her words.
"Mommy..." Mini-Moon also feels encouraged.
"Shadow, you recently told me that the energy of the Chaos Emeralds can be shared amongst others for a brief time?" Ethan recalls.
"One thing I just thought about some time after our battle with Pharaoh 90. And I also believe... that anyone can become Super, as long as they have the aptitude to do so." Super Shadow adds.
"Sailor Moon does fit that bill. I can share my emerald energy with Sailor Moon... is what I would say if it wasn't for us still in Chaos Control mode. I can give her the emeralds, and she should be able to use them as a replacement for the Purity Chalice for this battle. The thing is, once she does take the emeralds, our time for Chaos Control will be shortened greatly." Ethan formulates.
"I think we have that covered, brother, with some help from our pal, Tuxedo." Super Shadow hints.
"Yeah! Let's do this!" Ethan nods, then calls out to Sailor Moon. "Hey!"
"Huh?" Moon reacts.
"Want to go Super one last time, Sailor Moon? You can use my Chaos Emeralds." Ethan asks.
The other scouts react in confusion.
"Can she really use the Emeralds, though?" Jupiter questions.
"Anyone can use the Emeralds' powers. And with the aptitude to be able to do so, anyone can go Super. Since you have gone Super before, Sailor Moon, I'm certain this will work as a replacement for the Purity Chalice." Super Shadow clarifies.
"I can... I can really do this?" Moon wonders in a curious tone.
"Sailor Heart, do you remember what happened during our first battle against Cooler, with the Chaos Emeralds?" Ethan asks.
"The Emeralds... ahhhh!" Heart recalls.
A flashback starts to during the time of the first Cooler encounter.
"Scouts, give me the Emeralds." Heart suggested.
They gave her the Emeralds and she stores them in her body.
Venus gasped, "Are you sure it's okay to do that?"
"Don't worry. I have the ability to use magic, so the Emeralds shouldn't do anything crazy… I hope." Heart said.
The flashback transitions to another part.
Heart took the Emeralds from her body and Ethan accepted the Emeralds back into his body.
"How are you able to do that?" Ethan asked.
"I am able to use magic, so I can control the Emeralds power from doing something weird… at least to a certain extent." Heart answered.
'I wonder she if could transform like me…' Ethan thought to himself in wonder.
The flashback ends.
"If you're able to control the Emeralds like Shadow and I can, then Sailor Moon can, too." Ethan figures.
"That's a good point." Heart agrees.
"Ethan, aren't you still using the Chaos Emeralds to stop time? What will happen when Sailor Moon takes the power of the Emeralds?" Mercury asks.
"Time won't be stopped for very long. Tuxedo Mask, we need your help on this, too." Super Shadow asks.
"Right!" Tuxedo Mask agrees.
Tuxedo Mask throws the rose to Renji's forehead.
"There. When time resumes, the reaction will be enough for your attacks to reach her." Tuxedo Mask says.
"Thanks." Super Shadow expresses.
"Ethan, these Emeralds are yours, so I will only accept them this one time, unless it's a critical emergency." Moon informs.
"I gotcha. Now then..." Ethan prepares.
Ethan turns back to normal and sends the Chaos Emeralds to Sailor Moon. The emeralds encircle her, then enter inside of her... allowing her to become empowered. Sailor Moon's power and appearance becomes that of Super Sailor Moon, plus it includes the light formed butterfly wings. This time around, her pure heart stays in her body.
"This energy. It feels... different compared to the power from the Purity Chalice, or even the energy from my fellow scouts." Super Moon senses.
"You guys should hurry. The effects of Chaos Control are going to wear off in a few minutes." Super Shadow warns.
"Then, it's my turn. Heart Elegant Power!" Heart calls.
Using her Maiden's Gohei, Sailor Heart turns into Super Sailor Heart.
"You say that the energy of the Chaos Emeralds can be shared amongst others, correct?" Super Moon asks.
"As long as they have the aptitude for it." Super Shadow clarifies.
"I won't need to make the others go Super, but... I can give each of you... a bit of my power and the power of the Chaos Emeralds." Super Moon desires.
Holding out her hand, she blesses the other scouts beside Super Sailor Heart with emerald energy, surrounding each of them with a gold aura.
"Woooow! I feel so much stronger!" Mini-Moon senses.
"It's like my muscles have more muscles!" Jupiter feels.
"I feel like my entire body is going to burst with so much more power!" Mars comments.
"This is incredible! The wonders of what our team can do!" Mercury smiles.
"Now, we can all finish this with style!" Venus poses.
"Leave the rest to us, everyone. Sailor Scouts, let's end this battle once and for all!" Super Moon calls.
"Yeah!" Super Heart cheers.
"Their empowerment comes more from Super Sailor Moon, and not directly from the Chaos Emeralds. Therefore, their attacks will be Super powered, not Chaos powered." Super Shadow reads.
"Super Flamethrower!" Mars prepares.
"Super Solar Beam!" Venus prepares.
"Super Ice Beam!" Mercury prepares.
"Super Zap Cannon!" Jupiter prepares.
"Pink Deluxe Heart Ache!" Mini-Moon prepares.
"Final Love Magicannon!" Super Heart prepares.
"Rainbow Moon Heart Ache!" Super Moon prepares.
"Our time's up..." Super Shadow senses.
Time resumes normally. Renji quickly realizes that her heat beam missed her target somehow, then becomes blasted by energy from Tuxedo Mask's rose on her forehead, keeping her distracted.
"NEO RAINBOW PLANET CANNON!" The scouts fire.
What fires is a true spectacle to the others. It's a super octo-beam, consisting of the seven rainbow colors with the platinum color in the center.
"AAAAAAAAAAAACK..." Renji shouts, as she becomes destroyed by their combined power.
The beam also incinerates the oven she had based her form over.
"Ohhhhhh..." Super Moon turns back to normal.
Sailor Moon releases the Chaos Emeralds from her body and gives them back to Ethan, who returns them to his body. The boosted effects from the other scouts wore off. Both Shadow and Sailor Heart return to their normal forms.
Everyone gathers around with cheers all around.
"That was the best team attack I've ever seen!" Sylvester smiles.
"It was so beautiful, too. It's like taking Marisa's Master Spark and making it even more powerful and beautiful." Sarah gleams.
"I am quite curious at which of our beams would win in a clash-off. One of the things I'll be doing as Super Sailor Heart when I visit Gensokyo." Heart desires.
"At last... it's really, truly, finally over..." Moon states.
"No more of these Heart Snatchers to worry about. And it's better off that way." Ethan says.
"We all did amazing!" Venus cheers.
"And it was so cool getting a taste of what it's like going Super." Jupiter adds.
"Makes me wish we had that kind of power, too." Mars says.
"It doesn't matter. Like Sailor Heart said, our love for one another is all we need." Mercury summarizes.
"I agree." Shadow nods.
The sun begins to rise over the horizons, literally and figurately for the group, as they all look over it.
"Once again, the sun will rise to greet a world where goodness lives on." Tuxedo Mask quotes.
"Well said, Tuxedo!" Tweety compliments.
"Wow! Beautiful sunrise!" Mini-Moon smiles.
"This beautiful warmth, it makes me feel like all of the stress we once had with the Heart Snatchers just... melts away." Heart admires.
After a bit of admiration from the sun, everyone turns to the unexpected return of Mini-Moon.
"Now, let's talk about you, Mini-Moon. What are you doing back here?" Moon asks.
"I just couldn't leave you guys. I... I feel like there's still more I can learn from you all." Mini-Moon clarifies.
"Is that really it?" Moon wonders.
"Well, that, and... you guys would be more pathetic without me!" Mini-Moon jokes.
"Was that a jab coming from you, Mini-Moon? You little scamp!" Ethan grins.
"Come on, you guys, let's teach her a lesson!" Moon grins.
All of the other scouts playfully rough around with her, with laughs all around.
"I just love happy endings!" Artemis smiles.
"All well that's ends well!" Luna quotes.
"This is good. Hotaru can live her new life in peace. And Maria... you've finally been avenged. I can now put most of the past behind me, and move forward." Shadow looks up.
"I hope this means you won't be leaving us, brother." Ethan wonders.
"There is more I can do in other worlds. For now, I would like to stay for quite some time." Shadow informs.
"Well, after all of my travels, I can say that I can settle with someone very special to me. This is truly the world for me, brother!" Ethan smiles.
"Good for you, brother." Shadow smiles.
After all of the playful roughness with Mini-Moon, Sarah becomes curious and asks, "Rini... if you're really going to stay, at least tell us that you saw your parents."
"Well, ummm..." Mini-Moon starts to explain.
But, that won't be necessary, as another letter appears from the swirly portal.
"Another letter?" Sarah wonders.
"Just in time!" Mini-Moon anticipates.
"I shall read this for you all." Heart volunteers.
Opening the letter, it contains a picture of the Neo-Queen Serenity and King Darien.
"This is from Rini's parents." Tina begins to read the letter to everyone.
'Hi, honey. Thank you for coming to see us and bringing such wonderful presents. We missed you so much. We are so happy to hear about not only of ourselves and our friends from our past, but the new friends you have made unexpectedly.'
'Ethan sounds like an incredible protector and really kind, too. I wish somebody like him would be in our time. You and Shadow made that valuable friend that I wanted you to make. I'm so happy that you were blessed with that opportunity.'
'Speaking of friends, Sarah sounds like the perfect friend that's close to your age. I hope you get to spend more time with her. And we can't tell you how incredibly sweet it is that you feel that Tina is like an elder sister to you. Being an only child has its ups and downs. So, we're joyous of your familial feelings for her, and for everyone else.'
'Be a good girl and try not to trouble poor Serena. Have a wonderful time with everyone there. Lots of Love, Mommy and Daddy.'
'P.S. I look forward to our next visit with more presents.'
"So, you did get to see your parents, ehhh?" Ethan says.
"What about you presents?" Sarah asks.
"I've put all but the Orange Locket you gave me, Sarah, in my room." Mini-Moon clarifies.
"Rini's back!" Mercury, Mars, Jupiter, and Venus exclaim.
"Looks like it all worked out after all, big sis!" Sarah smiles.
"I couldn't be happier. Come here." Heart smiles, picking up Mini-Moon.
"Sailor Heart..." Mini-Moon blushes a bit.
Everyone smiles and becomes relieved that Rini/Mini-Moon is here to stay.
"So that's that. I'm back to stay! Hm hm ha haaa!" Mini-Moon giggles.
Another week has passed. It is currently daytime. With Thomas and Sylvester moving out of Lita's place, it's now her and Shadow. The two sit beside each other at a table.
"How are you feeling, Lita?" Shadow asks.
"It has been a bit lonelier without Thomas, Shadow. We would do a ton of training together. But, I do get wanting to be with the girl he loves. Wish I can be the same with a boy, myself." Lita says.
"Romance, huh...?" Shadow ponders about his potential love life.
"Sylvester's gone, too. It makes sense, cause he wants to be with both his owner and his best friend. Still, it was nice having a pet around." Lita misses.
"I feel the same." Shadow agrees.
"What about you, Shadow? You still wish to stay with me?" Lita wonders.
"By this point, since my brother and I have gotten used to being able to see each other again, I don't need him around as much. And yet... I currently have nowhere else I could go. Until I figure that out, I need a place to stay." Shadow clarifies.
"You can stay here longer if you like, Shadow. I don't mind." Lita insists. "Although, I imagine that you wish that you could be with either Maria or Hotaru, huh?"
"In a dream scenario, I would have liked to move to Hotaru's place, maybe help out around the house, and just make sure that she's happy... and that she could learn to be more adaptful to her powers as Sailor Saturn. Of course... her techniques were far from unrefined. She was not only powerful, but smart in when and how to use them." Shadow notices.
"Even the outer scouts grew from Ethan's influence. Man... Ethan sure did a lot for us." Lita realizes.
"How much with what I, he, and Tina did for this world... we may never know how things could have gone if not for us. It makes a world of difference having those from other worlds come and change its fate, however small or huge it would ultimately be." Shadow analyzes.
"We kind of got a taste of that from knowing about the future Rini came from, our possible future." Lita says.
"What was it like being in that future?" Shadow asks.
"Well, it was bad at the time, but still had so much going for it. So first, let's talk about Tokyo and the changes it has made..." Lita begins to explain.
Back at Tina's home, Sylvester and Tweety are watching TV together.
"You know, Tweety, after all of the life threatening experiences we've had dealing with the Heart Snatchers, it makes me realize that... trying to eat you would be the worse mistake I would ever make." Sylvester reflects.
"Aww, puddy tat!" Tweety blushes a bit.
"Besides, we have plenty of food to keep us well fed, owners that love us, each other, and others a lot, and they're really strong!" Sylvester points out.
"We're pretty strong, too, you know." Tweety says.
"That we are, Tweety. That we are. From now on, we should enjoy our lives a lot more. Everyone else can handle things without us." Sylvester thinks.
"But, if we are needed, we'll be there. Right, puddy tat?" Tweety asks.
"Right you are, my feathered friend!" Sylvester smiles.
Tweety smiles back.
Rini and Sarah, now sharing a room and a bed together whenever Rini comes by, are hanging out in their bed while gossiping
"You really had a boyfriend, once, Rini?" Sarah gasps.
"Yeah. I was quite jealous of Michelle at the time. Especially when she kissed him." Rini recalls.
"Wow... Did you ever get to kiss Massinori?" Sarah asks.
"I never did. I haven't gotten my first kiss, yet. What about you, Sarah?" Rini wonders.
"Not me. I kind of want to, though. Tina has told me much in the past on cherishing any boy that I choose to love, and kissing the one that's right in my heart." Sarah remembers.
"Serena and Tina... they have incredible boyfriends. I hope that I have one that's just as wonderful as Darien or Thomas. I don't care if they have special powers or not. I just hope they will treat me kindly." Rini wishes.
"As long as that boy loves me for who I am, I'll be happy!" Sarah wishes.
"Let's both hope one day, then, Sarah." Rini says, holding Sarah's hand.
"For Romance that will make us happy, forever!" Sarah desires.
"... Hahahahahaha!" Rini and Sarah laugh, being silly and thinking so early about their plans for true love in the future.
Tina and Thomas both look over the entire city over a huge building.
"You know, thinking back, I did first learned about your arrival on Earth through a space pod on a news story on TV." Tina recalls.
"It's been quite some time for me. I've been continuing my training away from others just before my first official meeting with the scouts. And especially with Uranus and Neptune." Thomas informs.
"Ohh, yeah. That speed race you had with them. Even without flying, you still were quick on your feet when you needed to be." Tina states.
"I believe Shadow's faster on the ground. Still, I really showed Uranus at the time. And look at how our relationship ended up. Sibling figures with her, Neptune, and now Pluto." Thomas says.
"Don't you have that same kind of feelings with Amy, Lita, and Mina?" Tina points out.
"I do, and that hasn't changed. I guess it was more downplayed since the outer scouts were more on my mind. That hasn't changed what I felt for those three. Especially Lita. She's been a big help for me with training." Thomas looks back fondly.
"You know, speaking of training, teaching the others those Pokémon moves was game changing! They definitely used those moves more often than their scout moves." Tina notices.
"That was the point, but I am glad to broaden their horizons and increase their diversity of moves. I do think there's more I can learn, though, if I go back to the Pokémon world." Thomas figures.
"You love this world so much. Are you ever planning on leaving?" Tina asks.
"If I consider that my life will probably outlive most humans, then I will most likely do so at some point. But, not for years from now. I need to make sure that Serena's future as Queen of Crystal Tokyo goes well." Thomas desires.
"Same, here. And you know, I may always have Rini in mind as a sister for me, but I consider Serena my sister, too. I feel like I'm a true part of the Tsukino family. Well, Sarah and I are, to be exact." Tina feels.
"I'm glad you feel that way for her. But, do you know what I feel for you, right now, Tina?" Thomas smiles, holding Tina close to him.
"Hmm hmm. Maybe a little..." Tina teases a bit.
"Let's make it a lot, then..." Thomas assures.
Thomas holds Tina close to him and kisses him passionately. Tina holds him back and the two share their love sweetly for around a minute.
"... Ohh, Thomas. I love you!" Tina blushes.
"I love you, too, Tina." Thomas smiles.
"Thomas, there's a good chance that more threats will come to our world, ready to cause so much trouble for us." Tina figures.
"With what Cooler tried to do to us, twice, that's something I would have to agree on." Thomas remembers.
"We must support Serena as she grows into an adult and one day weds Darien and has Rini as her own. Until then, we must grow even stronger." Tina says.
"I can do that. But, what about you? You won't be able to properly grow like the other scouts, since they have ways of receiving more powerful tools and abilities." Thomas wonders.
"Gensokyo. I can learn tons from Reimu and the others. Besides, seeing their world, experiencing their lifestyles, and making new friends... if Sarah can do it, then I can, too. That's where my increasing strength will come from. And who knows, we may have even have more new friends joining out to help us battle any threats." Tina expresses.
"The more the merrier. For right now, let's enjoy the peace in our world, Tina." Ethan concludes.
They go from holding each other, to holding hands, and watch the world continue to grow and evolve, just as they will over time.
With just a glimpse, we can see what our special group will be doing for the future of this world.
Tina will become stronger and stronger thanks to those from Gensokyo. And some residents, especially the three girls that took care of Sarah, will come to join Sailor Heart and help out the Sailor Scouts with their incredible danmaku and spell cards. Tina would also develop new games that were based on past adventures of the Sailor Scouts. Each game would represent each 'season' their lives have had.
Sarah, being incredibly inspired by the Gensokyian girls, Tina, and Rini, becomes a Sailor Scout herself. She becomes Sailor Mini-Heart, and develops a new kind of power not seen from any of her friends; a special kind of magic using a tome consisting of many elements, and using them in more ways than offensive casting. Sailors Mini-Heart and Mini-Moon form a duo that becomes so strong, that they quickly rise in strength and skill to their 'adult' counterparts.
Shadow does still stick around and occasionally helps the group out, but thinks more and more about traveling to other worlds compared to Ethan. When Shadow eventually awakens his Hyper Form, he eventually decides to travel sometime once the next threat was settled, and after seeing a certain Sailor Scout one more time, giving him the extra motivation he needed.
Sylvester and Tweety, with a few exceptions, mostly became house pets for Tina and Thomas that can talk. Their days are about relaxing and helping their owners and their siblings out on smaller tasks. They have also taken a lot of time spending it with Luna and Artemis, alongside another special visitor that eventually comes from Rini's future.
Ethan's powers as a Saiyan grow to legendary heights. He discovers that he can go beyond Super Saiyan 2, and even being able to go Hyper Saiyan with those stages, too. Eventually, he would reach Hyper Saiyan 4, his most powerful form... or so he thought. Because with the help of an otherworldly visitor that shares his kind, being a warrior of legendary power himself, this spiky haired Hero blesses Ethan with the truly ultimate power: deifying. Using the full power of the Chaos Emeralds, his own Saiyan abilities, and of this godly power, he is able to become a form unlike any other in any world: Master God Ethan.
Thanks to Heroes from other worlds and other times, and those that have been blessed by said Heroes, the future for the Sailor Scouts can be one where the people can be protected, be happy, and can live peacefully, just as Maria wished for.
Ethan: And we are... done!
PDR: Thank goodness. We have come such a long way.
Ethan: Indeed. Thank you all for being a part of our story to the very end, especially to those who were there even during our long hiatus.
PDR: And just to reiterate, we will NOT do any more chapters after this. Nothing from Sailor Moon SuperS or beyond.
Ethan: I cannot tell you how valuable it was having your help with me with this story of mine. This would most likely be unfinished or not as interesting without you.
PDR: Glad I was there to help. It was just as fun helping you work on this.
Ethan: Mmhmm. Now, we can put this whole thing to rest.
PDR: That we can. Thank you all for joining us on this long, yet wondrous story of Sailor Moon: The 2nd Ultimate Lifeform.
Ethan: Farewell, Goodbye, Sayonara, and Bonfoyache!
