Chapter 3
Kaylee walks through the park. She had not been able to think about anything, so she had left the apartment. Something has been bothering her for the last few months, but she could not confide in the others. There are only two people she knows she can confide in, but Sailor Destiny was off trying to find Sailor Universe and Raye was lost in her own world.
Kaylee sighs as she continues to walk down the path through the park. She has to talk to someone, so she was headed to Raye's temple. Hopefully she could catch Raye in this world. As she continues to walk, she sees a woman dressed all in black standing near a sandbox. Kaylee stops in her tracks and stares at this woman.
"It's her." Kaylee whispers. "The woman from my dreams."
The woman turns and looks toward Kaylee. "So, there are powerful people on this planet. This could be fun." She thinks to herself. She walks toward Kaylee. She sees the uneasy look on Kaylee's face and smiles. "My name is Angelica D'Morte. I just arrived in Tokyo. Can you tell me where I may find the Sailor Senshi?"
"Excuse me?" Kaylee's uneasy feeling turns to one of terror.
"I am sorry, I didn't mean to frighten you. I am from America. We have heard a lot about the Sailor Senshi there, and I wanted to write a book on them."
"I'm sorry, but no one has seen them in over three years." Kaylee turns and begins to walk away.
"Well, if you see them tell them I am looking for them." Angelica turns and walks away. When she gets a distance away, she begins to laugh. "I will play the game, for now." She thinks to herself as she continues to walk away.

Mysty sits on the pier she had visited only once before. She looks out over the Pacific Ocean. "This is where this all began."
"No, you are wrong. This began the day Endymion broke her heart and drove her away."
Mysty turns and sees Gem standing next to her. "What are you doing here?" She asks in awe. "I would never have expected to see you here."
"I have come to tell you to go back to Tokyo."
"No. I must find Sailor Universe." She tells her. She has a look of determination on her face.
"As far as I know, she is dead." Gem says as she drops her head and looks at her feet. "She never made it out of the portal, Mysty. People trapped in the void do not survive. You have traveled the portals enough that even you know that."
"No." She whispers. "She can't be."
"There is no time for this, Mysty." Gem says as she raises her head. A tear slowly falls down her cheek. "There is an evil force headed this way. You must go back to Tokyo and help the others."
"We are doomed."
"No, we are only doomed if we give up." Gem says as she turns and walks away. She disappears into a nearby portal.
"I guess it is time to go back to Japan." She stands and raises her transformation brooch toward the sky. "Destiny Eternal Power!"
As the transformation ends, she looks back out over the ocean. "Good-bye, Usa. Good-bye, Sailor Universe." She whispers as a tear runs down her cheek. "Sailor Transport!"

Gem walks through the void headed back toward Gideon. She has a heavy heart. "They are no match for that creature."
As she continues to walk, she sees a faint glow in a distant part of the void. She turns her attention to that area. "The void does not posses light." She whispers. "I have never seen this before." Gem picks up the pace and walks toward the glow. As she gets near, she sees that there is a garden similar to the one that she has been living in.
As she approaches the gate to the garden, she sees that the gates are locked. She tries to open the gate, but it won't budge. "Who disturbs the sleep of the Guardian?"
"I do. Lady Gem of a long forgotten realm and now wander of the void."
The gate swings open and allows Gem to walk into the garden. In the center of the garden lays a large, rainbow colored crystal. Gem slowly walks over to it. When she gets close enough that she can look inside, she sees Sailor Universe's still body lying in the center.
"What is wrong with the Guardian?" She whispers. "Usagi wake up." She says.
"The Guardian can only be woke by the heir to the Earth Kingdom."
"Is the Guardian healed?" Gem asks as she scans the gardens for the speaker.
"No." Comes the answer, but she can not see anyone or anything.
"Why has she not healed?" She asks herself.
"She could not. She was too weak when the gem surrounded her. The void created this place as it created yours, but since she is the Guardian the void protects her."
"If she is woke, will she survive?"
"I do not know."
"I will bring Endymion, Usagi. Please stay safe. The Earth is in great danger." Gem turns and walks away from the crystal and out the gates.
