"Mina, what do you know about this?" Lita asked.

"Why does everyone ask me that?" Mina said angrily.

"Because you're somehow involved," Lita said suspiciously, "What's with Rei? Why's she so uptight?"

"She thinks Saruka has something to do with our new enemy." Mina explained.

"What? Why would she think that?" Serena asked.

"I don't know. Ask her yourself." Mina said when she noticed Rei and Ami heading their way.

"Rei," Lita started, "what's up? Mina said you think Saruka's somehow mixed up with our new enemies."

Rei's hand still tightly clasped her transforming pen. "I've determined our exit in case something happens. Over there, by the stage. We should be able to make it there and transform to protect all these people."

"Well, why do you think something's going to happen?" Lita asked.

"Did you hear that song Saruka sung? That was exactly like our battle against Beryl. She knows something and is mixed in this some way… I know it!" Rei protested, "I'm also getting these totally weird vibes from her. I think it's just best to stay away from her."

"You know nothing, and I will not avoid her!" Mina defended, "she's a sweet girl! If you only got to know her."

"You don't even know her! You only think you do cause suddenly you had a memory come to you. A memory that isn't even real!"

"What do you know?" Mina nearly yelled. She felt so frustrated, so angry, that Rei wouldn't trust her enough to believe her. Mina stole a glance back over to Saruka's direction. She was just sitting there, looking calm, and happy… purely happy. Mina watched as Saruka joined in the clapping as the performer ended his piece. She would be going on soon.

"Mina? Mina!" Lita called to get Mina's attention.

"Yeah? What?" Mina asked. She hadn't even realized she had gone into a daze.

"Something really isn't right." Lita said.

Ami furrowed her brow as she thought, "I agree. There are some things here that just don't make any sense." Ami scratched her head before she continued, "I'm gunna have to side with Rei."

"What!?" Mina asked.

"It's just… I don't know. She's weird. She knows about our past on the Moon Kingdom, and I get the feeling she knows we're Sailor Scouts too." Ami explained.

"Yeah! That's because she lived back then with us! Of course she'd know!" Mina argued.

"Listen Mina, it's not that we don't trust your instincts," Ami said calmly, "But I think we should stick to staying safe. Maybe she is from our past, and if so that's great, but for now, until we know for sure, I think we should all just keep our distance. We have a brand new enemy we know nothing about, a new scout to track down, and I just don't think we should spend our time chasing false hope."

"False hope? I know who she is! Believe me. Ami… Lita… Serena… Please! Listen to me! I know, I remember! It's all true, I swear! Please, believe me." Mina looked back at Saruka, who made eye contact with her, smiled, and waved. "Oh, and you can cancel the search for the new sailor. I can tell you right now it's her. She's the sailor the appeared to us last night."

Serena looked over at Saruka, "You think so?" she said through a half doughnut in her mouth.

"I know so." Mina said.

Lita looked at Mina, then back to Saruka. "Ok, Mina. I believe you."

"Really? You do? Thank you Lita," Mina said, half surprised, half ecstatic.

"Yes," Lita said, "Saruka seems very nice… and actually, now that you mention it, she does kinda look like the sailor we saw last night…"

Ami, Rei, and Serena all looked back to the table and studied Saruka. "You know, I just don't see it." Serena said.

"Me neither," Ami determined.

"Yeah, well, I still have weird vibes, and I still think it's best we stay on total alert!" Rei said, her arms tightly crossed around her chest.

"That's fair." Lita said, "Come on, let's return to our seats."

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

"Hi, welcome back!" Saruka greeted them kindly as the five girls all took their seats at their table. Saruka frowned when she looked at them, "I thought you were going to get drinks?"

"Oops! Silly me, I left them back at the bar. Excuse me." Serena said before dismissing herself again.

"So, Saruka. Would it be alright if I asked you what inspires you for your drawings?" Lita asked with interest.

Saruka thought for a moment. She smiled shyly before speaking, "Well, I guess most of my drawing ideas come from my head, some from memories, but most from the past." Saruka said as she twiddled her thumbs.

"Oh, really? You mean, some of those drawings, like the kingdom and the Earth being in the sky were from the past?" Rei asked, testing Saruka.

Saruka just smiled. She was about to answer when she was called onto the stage again. "Oh, excuse me." Saruka said.

Saruka quickly got back up on stage and grabbed the mic. She stared into nothingness thinking before speaking. "Hey everyone! For my first song since my break, I will be singing my all time favourite, 'My Only Love'." Saruka said to the audience. She clutched a hand at her chest as she listened to the piano, played by another, and drums that kicked in.

'Why haven't they all remembered yet?' Saruka asked herself while she thought. The drums and piano seemed a lifetime away. She felt like she had forever to ask herself questions, 'Why is it only Mina? Queen Serenity promised me they'd remember. She said it'd be a piece of cake…'

Saruka snapped out of her daze as her que came. She waited for the right beats before she began.

"Deep in my soul, a love so strong, it takes control. Now we will know, the secrets there, the feeling shows. Driven far a part, I make a wish, on a shooting start. There will come a day, somewhere far away, in your arms I'll stay, my only love. Even though you're gone, love will still go on, the feling is so strong, my only love. My only love."

A piano solo continued, with an electric guitar before Saruka began again.

"There will come a day, some where far away, in your arms I'll stay, my only love. You reach the deepest part, of a secret in my heart, I've known it from the start, my only love. There will come a day, some where far away, in your arms I'll stay, my only love. You reach the deepest part, of a secret in my heart, I've known it from the start, my only love. My only love…"

The song ended with a short wind instrument, piano, and guitar sequence. The audience applauded again, and Saruka bowed. "Thank you, thank you all."

Saruka looked at the girls table. Serena still hadn't returned, and Rei was giving her an evil glare that made her skin crawl. "I will next be performing a piece by…"

Saruka's heart skipped a beat as Rei stood and spun around, looking for something. Saruka looked out in all directions, and finally she felt what Rei felt. They were here, the scouts new enemy, Alzamont's minions. Saruka noticed the crowd growing restless, and the other sailors all wondering what was up.

"As I said, I will next be performing a piece by Motzart…" Saruka stopped again. The feeling was stronger. Saruka was only an amature at the whole fortune telling thingy. She could only imagine what Rei was feeling. Saruka could feel chills going up and down her spine. By now the other three girls at the table were standing and looking around.

"Hey, sit down!" An angry man yelled. When the four girls didn't listen he stood up and yelled again, "Hey! Sit dow…"

Just then there was an explosion from the back of the room. Entering was Goxard and a bunch of man-like demons wearing black leather and golden chains. They spread through out the club like a bad virus. Saruka felt her heart racing. Out of no where a woman appeared beside Goxard. She wore a tight green outfit, and he left hand was a metal claw.

"There she is," Goxard said, pointing up to Saruka.

Saruka felt stunned and shocked. She tried to move, she wanted to, but fear stuck her to her spot. Saruka thought about ducking, but hesitated, and that's what got her. Before Saruka could think of anything else, the woman's metal claw had super sized and was rushing towards her.

"No, Saruka, look out!" Saruka heard Mina call.

There was no time. The claw had already clasped itself around her waist. Saruka screamed as it lifted her off the ground.

"We gotta help her!" Saruka her Ami yell out to the other four scouts. She saw them through al the commotion trying to find somewhere conceled to transform, but before they could do much, a man-like demon was beside them, with a Soul-Betrayer in his hand.

"Nooo!!" Saruka screamed as the demon reached for Lita's arm. Lita spun around and kicked him hard before running off back stage with the other sailors.

The woman in green calmly approached Saruka. "Such a pitty. All mighty Queen Saruka of the milky way too weak to fight me here?" She asked.

Saruka stared into the cloud of dust blocking her view of the woman, "What? Who are you? Who do you think I am?" Saruka yelled. As the woman walked closed and the clouds of dust parted, Saruka recognized her.

"What? Aydel?" Saruka said in shock. She remembered Aydel well from the Moon Kingdom, they were friends. But now Aydel was older, much older. She was grown up. Last Saruka saw her she was no more than six, but it was her, no mistake.

"I'm honored such a powerful Queen like yourself remembers me…" Aydel said.

"I don't know what you're talking about!" Saruka said truthfully.

"Oh, yes… you wouldn't remember, would you? You become Queen later on in your life, when Neo Queen Serenity and King Darien rule Crystal Tokyo… but that's exactly why I'm here. It's better to get rid of a flea while there's only one, rather than wait until it has a chance to spread and take over… right, Goxard?"

Saruka's eyes met Goxards. She remembered Goxard not only from the night before, but from the last day of the Moon Kingdom. She remembered him well… he was the one who hurt Mina, he was the one that held Saruka down and made her watch as he killed her sister. Saruka remembered the screams better though, and she lived with those screams every night in her sleep.

"So, we meet again, girl." Goxard smiled. He clutched her face with his dirty hands. Saruka spat at him. If the claw wasn't holding her she could get him. She could reach her transformation pen and destroy him now, like she could have last night.

"Stop right there!" A proud voice boomed from the bar. "You threaten a young child and there's no pride in that! My name is Sailor Moon! I am the Pretty Sailor Soldier of love and justice! I will right wrongs and triumph over evil! And that means you."

Sailor Moon leaped from the bar and landed behind Goxard. Goxard turned around. When he faced Sailor Moon, he smiled deeply and licked his lips. "Heh, heh. I remember you. Feisty one, you were." He said. He reach out and with a flick of his wrist Sailor Moon went defensless.

"What? How?" Sailor Moon stuttered, as her paralyzed body was lifted closer to him.

Goxard looked her up and down, "Yes… you're just the same as that night. Heh heh." He lifted a finger to her chin, "Poor porr child, memory lost? Queen Serenity was a fool to think we couldn't attack you here either. She thought she was being smart, and brave by sending you here to the future, she thought we couldn't follow. But we found a way, didn't we, Aydel?"

"Yes, we did." Aydel said, keeping her anger filled eyes on Saruka. "Now, Sailor Moon, where are all those other fur balls?"

"Right here, scum! And we're not fur balls." Like a calling, the other four sailors lept from high up on a stage balcony.

"I am Sailor Mars, and in the name of Mars I will punish you!" Sailor Mars' announced herself.

"With the power of Jupiter I will shock you to oblivium!" Jupiter called.

"Intelligence and wit can be very useful in more than one way, so in the name of Mercury you're toast!" Mercury said.

"With power, beauty, and anger from the planet of Venus I will destroy you, you invaders!" Venus yelled bravely.

"Right on time." Aydel said, finally taking her stare from Saruka, "Now the fun starts."
