Episode Four:
"The Light Of
Hope"

Usagi lay on her bed looking at the ceiling. She was in deep thought, which she rarely did, about
Kyuuto. What kind of evil could turn a moonchild into evil? It must be powerful evil she figured. Were the
scouts prepared for such an evil? Could they defeat such an evil? Would they even win? To many questions
were in her mind, but she could not answer them. Only one person knew the outcome of this battle and that
was Sailor Pluto. Or now not even her. She said that the timeline had been disturbed,so it's possible she
doesn't know what will happen. It didn't matter, Usagi just hoped that they would survive this. We must
survive this. Or....or else the world....world will..will.wi.... Usagi then closed her eyes and fell into a deep
sleep.
Mamoru opened the door and there they stood. He hadn't seen them for a long time. "Come in.
Ogenki desu-ka?" Mamoru showe them in. "We're doing fine Mamoru-san. How you been? Where's
Usako?" he asked. Mamoru flinched when he said Usako. "She's fine" Mamoru's voice hardened. Taiki
nudged Seiya warning him not to push it. He did these things just to make Mamoru mad or jealous. Seiya
smirked, he liked seen Mamoru get mad. "So Mamoru-san how have you been. How is everyone?" Yaten
quickly changed the subject. "Everyone's doing fine. Come on , have a seat. I'll go get Usagi" Mamoru
began to walk away. "Usagi's here?!" Seiya almost yelled.(Ooooohhhhh) This was Mamoru's chance to get
Seiya back for what he said. "Oh, well didn't you know. Usagi's been leaving with ME for the past five
months" Mamoru said. "Living with you. As in together" Seiya voice hardened. "Hai" Mamoru said
walking away. He lightly tapped on the door. "Usako... Usako?" Mamoru said. "Yes Mamo-chan" Usagi
said from inside her room. "We have visitors" Mamoru said. "Alright i'll be right out" Usagi said and in a
few moments she opened the door. She looked into the living room and saw the Lights sitting there. "Taiki,
Seiya, Yaten!" Usagi ran to them hugged them all. "Usagi-chan it's good to see you" Taiki said. "Hai, same
here. So Usagi-chan have you and Mamoru-san,ooooooffffff!" before Yaten could finish Seiya hit him in
the stomach. "It's good to see you odango atama" Seiya smiled. " You to Seiya" Usagi smiled back. "Well,
enough with our little reunion let's go see the others" Taiki said. "Hai"Yaten said holding his stomach.
Usagi looked at Mamoru and said "You know what i'll go later." "Are you sure?" Mamoru asked. "Hai.
I'm sure" Usagi smiled and gave him a kiss on the cheek. She waved goodbye to the others and went back
to her room. Mamoru and the others went to Rei's temple.
Usagi lay on her bed thinking. If the Starlights were back,it could mean that there is a new and
strong evil. I wonder if Haruka, Michiru, Hotaru, and Setsuna will be returning Usagi thought. Then she
got the sensation she was being watched. Her body stiffened for a second trying to listen to her
surroundings. There were no noises, no nothing, and yet she could sense a presence. She got up from the
bed and reached for her locket which had been on the table next to her bed, but it wasn't there. Oh no!
Usagi yelled to herself. This could not be good. "Alright who's there? "she asked. "Your senses are
improving odango atama" a female voice said. Then from a dark corner in the room a shadow emerged.
She held Usagi's locket in one hand. "Haruka!" Usagi exclaimed. Haruka stepped out from the shadows.
"Konnichiwa Usagi-chan. Ogenki desu ka?" Haruka asked. "Genki desu. Anata wa?" Usagi asked. "Watashi
mo genki desu" Haruka wanswered. "What are you doing here?" Usagi asked. "We've come to help.
Michiru sensed a disturbance in the waters" Haruka explained. "Arigatou" Usagi said. "Why?" Haruka
asked. "You are always there when I need you. You always have been. One day i'm going to pay you back
for all the kindness and protection you've showed me" Usagi answered. "Oh, odango atama."Haruka didn't
know what to say. "Let's go to the temple and meet the others" Usagi smiled. "Hai" Haruka said. And they
went on their way to the temple.

A young girl about fifteen, with shoulder length blue hair and green eyes watched the two girls
walking. It is time they know the truth. I must tell the Princess she thought.
* * * * *
At the temple.......
"Konnichiwa minna-chan!" Usagi called out to her freinds. " Usagi-chan!" Hotaru ran to her and
hugged her. "Usagi ogenki desu ka?" Michiru asked. "I'm fine Michiru.I mised you so much Michiru-san.
My life is incomplete without your words of wisdom and comfort, It's good to see you all" Usagi said.
"Yep, just like the good ol' days" Yaten said. They all giggled. Then there was a display of light in front of
Usagi. Haruka protectively got in front of Usagi in case this was an enemy. Mamoru seeing Haruka's
actions felt a little releaved, but stood prepared in case this was an attack. Then a young girl stood there
when the light disappeared. She looked at Haruka and studied her curiously. "Hey!What are you doing?!"
Haruka demanded. "You... you don't look like the Moon Princess" the girl said. "What are you talking
about?" Ami said. "Don't lie to me. I felt her moon spirit here" the girl then looked at the girl that the girl
with short blond hair was standing in front of(Oi! I want you to know that this sentence left me confused).
"Your highness? Is that you? Princess Serenity?" the girl asked. "How do you know me?" Usagi peeked out
her head from behind Haruka. "Princess Serenity!" the girl said and walked closer to Usagi. But Haruka
held Usagi tighter and got in her way preventing her from getting closer. "Oh I see. You must be Princess
Serenity's royal guard. Will you needn't worry about me. I am not here to harm her. I'm here to inform her
highness about the new evil on Earth" the girl explained. "First tell us who you are" Haruka's stare
hardened. It was obvious to the girl that this must be Sailor Uranus because she had always been very
protective of the princess. "My name's Ayane. I am the gatekeeper to Elysion. I am here because the Light
of Hope is desperately needed" Ayane said. "Gatekeeper to Elysion? But what about Helios?" Usagi said.
"I'm afraid Lord Helios is gone and the golden crystal with him" Ayane said. Mamoru's eyes watered a
little at the news. "But if he is gone then why is Mamoru here?" Usagi asked. "Prince Endymion is alive
because Helios used the golden crystal to separate the Prince's soul from Earth so that if Elysion died then
he would still live. Unfortunatly,he died in the process. That is why i'm here. I must retrieve the Light of
Hope. It is the only thing that can save Earth now" Ayane explained. "What are you talking about? Light of
Hope?" Usagi asked. "I will explain everything to you all if,you will all please trust me in being around
Serenity" Ayane said. Everyone sat down , Mamoru grabbed Usagi's hand and pulled her to where he was.
"Princess Serenity, eight months before you were born to Queen Serenity, the powerful Silver Millenium
wizard, Anakin, was injured in a magical battle now known as Battle 9. Anakin felt that death would soon
come and seek him out, so he decided to pass his spirit to his granddaughter Queen Serenity. Anakin
transformed his spirit and powers into a simple rainbow crystal. He placed the rainbow crystal with in
Serenity,unfortunatly she never inheritated his powers. No one new why, until Serenity found out she was
going to have a child. That's when everyone figured it out, the rainbow crystal had indeed entered Serenity,
but it had penetrated into her star seed. So the rainbow crystal was placed inside you. Queen Serenity
decided to teach you about it's true powers when you grew older. When you were fifteen she told you a
story about....." "The Light of Hope," Usagi interrupted her. "Hai" Ayane said. "Yes, I remember little
parts. She said that the rainbow contained the Light of Hope. One of the most powerful weapons in the
universe. She said that it kept human love and faith alive. Were it not alive,the world and possibly the
whole universe would be filled with doubt and hate, but she never told me I was it" Usagi said. "Well,
exactly. Only one thing, when Queen Beryl (or Metallia, however you know her) killed you,the rainbow
crystal broke apart. It seems that eight shards entered eight different individuals. And you Serenity contain
the main crystal they revolve around. I think that the Sailor senshi contain them" Ayane said. "Alright so
how do we know we carry them" Seiya said. " I don't think the Star senshi carry them. Since your home
planet was not really part of the Alliance. But there is one way to figure it out" Ayane said. "How?" asked
Ami. "Sailor Mercury, just the same. Always asking a million questions. Well, the ginzishou should detect
the shards presence"Ayane said. "Usagi take out the crystal"Luna commanded. Usagi stood up. "Emperial
Scepter I call forth your presence" Usagi said. Then the scepter appeared in her hands. The silver crystal
glowed lightly and it appeared in Usagi's hands. Then without warning nine beams shot out hitting each of
the scouts except Hotaru and the Starlights. Then small crystals floated out of the scouts chest (including
Mamoru) each one glowing a bright color. Then a larger crystal, a little bit smaller than the silver crystal,
floated out of Usagi's chest. The crystal was glowing all rainbow colors. Then, just as quickly as the crystal
shards had appeared they disappeared. "Nani? Where...where did they go?" Ami asked. "They were just
projections of the real crystal shards. They will only appear physically when the Light of Hope is finally
united" Ayane answered. " So let's unite them" Haruka said. "It's not that simple. This would take alot of
time, energy, besides you must only call on the Light of Hope when you fight against.. the Lord of the Dark
Moon Armada. But hopefully that won't be necessary" Ayane said. "Why?" Usagi asked. "Your highness....
using.. the power of the Light of Hope.....it.it is a most powerful and pure weapon. It...using it will have
prices" Ayane said quickly. "What kind of prices?" Luna asked. "Prices you may not want to pay. Anyways,
we must concentrate on more important matters" Ayane said quickly changing the subject. "Like what?"
Makoto said. "Well, on finding Anakin ,Lady Jupiter" Ayane said. "Hold it!" Usagi yelled. "What is wrong
your highness?" Ayane asked. "That is wrong" Usagi said. "Nani?" Ayane said. "You don't have to be so
formal. We do not exist in the Silver Millenium anymore. Besides we are hardly those people anymore. Let
me introduce you to the Sailor Senshi. This is Hino Rei and Mizuno Ami" Usagi pointed at them. "Hello"
"Konnichiwa" they both said. "That is Kino Makoto, Aino Minako, and Chiba Mamoru" Usagi introduced
them. They greeted her. "These cute guys are Kou Yaten, Seiya, and Taiki" Usagi pointed out the Three
Lights. "And last but most definitly not least Kaiou Michiru, Meiou Setsuna, Tomoe Hotaru, and one of my
dearest freinds and protectors Ten'ou Haruka" Usagi introduced her to the Outers. "Now Ayane no more
fancy shmancy talk with us. We are freinds" Hotaru said. "Hai. Good freinds now" Makoto winked at her.
"Now that we are officially freinds...." But before Usagi could finish Rei interrupted. "Now that we are
officially freinds I should warn you about Usagi here. She is a ditz, clumsy , a crybaby, and resembles a
hyena when laughing" Rei said. "Oh, Rei you are so mean" Usagi stuck her tongue out at Rei and Rei did
the same. Ayane giggled, Princess Serenity had changed a lot. She was never this immature in the Moon
Kingdom. "Anyways.."Luna started but was broken off by Usagi. "Anyways, come on Ayane-chan let's go
to the arcade!" Usagi said. She got up and grabbed Ayane's hand and they ran out of the temple."Ooohhh!
That Usagi. Here we are in the middle of a war and all she wants to do is play games" Luna yelled. "Oh
come one Luna. That's our Usagi. If it weren't for her we'd all be dull, boring people and we don't want to
be that, ne?" Makoto said. "Hai. That is my Odango atama" Haruka said. Everyone looked at her in a
strange way. "She is my good freind" Haruka said reassuring them. "Well, let's go join them" Minako said.
"Yeah I am kinda hungry" Makoto said. "Yeah right. You just want to see Motoki" Minako teased. "Iie!
That's not it" Makoto protested while blushing. Then they walked off to the arcade.
* * * *
At the arcade.....
"Awww!No fair"Usagi whined. "Were you destroyed again your highness?" Ayane said. Usagi
looked at her. "Gomen nasai. I'm so used to saying your highness, your majesty that I can't get rid of it"
Ayane apologized. "Ii besu yo," Usagi said ", demo, remember we are freinds now. You are a part of us
now. You belong to this family and just like with the scouts I will respect and care for you" Usagi smiled.
"Arigatou Usagi....chan" Ayane said. "Now. Let's try this again" Usagi put in another quarter. I've never
really had a real freind before. I never thought it would be Serenity. Wow I guess i'm lucky to have
freinds like them Ayane thought as she watched Usagi play.
