Somewhere out there is a special lady and Seiya, Taiki and Yaten have an important message to give her. The only hope of doing so is through their music, so they are going to give it all they've got!

The trio had their heads bowed in anticipation. Soon the machinery would whirr into action and lift the dome-like covering of the stage, unveiling them to the assembled crowd.
It was an integral part of the performance, a vital aspect of casting their spell.
And they'd need every ounce of magic they could muster if their message was to reach the princess.
Taiki's pushed the glasses back into position.
"By my calculations this should work. We've set up the equipment right, our powers have aligned and with the energy from the crowds the message should carry through the ether."
Seiya frowned. "It'll carry. But can we be sure she'll get it?"
"That's a variable I can't account for."
The dome lifted and whatever soundproofing it'd provided suddenly evaporated. The trio was hit with a wave of sound so strong they might've buckled if they'd been merely human.
In unison they began to lift their heads and, as they'd so often practiced, the music began once they'd completely straightened up.
Their eyes however, remained closed.
Yaten shrugged. "It's such a long shot. Is it even worth all this effort?"
"Are you serious!" Taiki frowned as Seiya fixed Yaten with a furious glare. "Of course it's worth it. She's worth it!"
Yaten glared back for a moment before ultimately faltering. "You're right. Sorry. Let's give it everything we got."
The trio opened their eyes, the gesture projected onto the massive screens to the side and above the stage.
In spite of how small the gesture was it sent the crowds into a veritable frenzy of noise.
There were so many people that it was hard to make out individual faces. And yet one figure stood out far at the back and sitting high above everyone else.
"Seiya, even if this does work, it doesn't guarantee we'll hear back from her right away," cautioned Taiki.
"Or ever," muttered Yaten.
Seiya's fist clenched. "I know. But that doesn't matter. It's the least we can do. It's what we owe her. Us and all our people."
"Before we begin, we'd like to say a few words," said Yaten
The music continued to play away in the background, looping around in anticipation of the performance finally starting.
"Twenty five years is a very long time. And although we've made progress, there is still much to do," continued Taiki.
Seiya took an imperceptible breath before picking up where Taiki left off. "But however far we've all come together, none of it would've been possible if it wasn't for the kindness of a very special person. Tonight we dedicate our performance to that person and will be broadcasting our performance out there amongst the stars. It might take a long time to reach her, if it does at all, but we hope with all our hearts that someday she will hear our singing. We humbly ask you to join your hearts in that hope."
The crowd roared and the regal crimson clad figure far at the back smiled warmly.
"From all of us here on New Kinmoku, thank you Sailor Moon!"
"THANK YOU SAILOR MOON!"
Simultaneously, the three Sailor Starlights gave completely unrehearsed smiles. If the crowd were this loud there was no doubt their message would reach across the galaxy.
"Alright everyone, what's say we get this concert started!? You all know the magic words? Sssssssssss-" Seiya worked the crowd, encouraging them to cheer along with what the three performers were about to say.
"STAGE ON!"
A/N: So, not too long ago I was discussing Sailor Moon's upcoming 30th anniversary with FloraOne. It was through that conversation that I realized this year was also a notable anniversary, the 25th anniversary of Sailor Stars. So, I decided to mark the occasion, something I wouldn't have done if not for that convo, so thanks Flora!
