Rini slowly sneaked into Serena's room, trying to be as quiet as possible. When she is sure Serena is still asleep, she jumps on top of her screaming as loud as she can. Serena pops up out of her bed ready for a fight. Confusion passed across her face when she sees no one to fight. Rini dissolves into giggles. Serena plops backward onto the bed groaning.

"Honestly Rini, you're older now. Do you have to keep up the sadistic practice of waking me up at ungodly hours?"

Rini just laughed at her more and took a look at the clock.

"I would hardly call 11 an ungodly hour. And we promised to meet Ty and Darien at 11:30, so you have to get up. You wouldn't want Darien seeing you like this now would you?" And she pushed Serena up in front of a mirror. Serena yawns and then looks at herself and lets out a small shriek.

"Ack! Where's my hairbrush?" She scrambles around her dresser. Rini laughs again and lets herself out of the room.

Forty-five minutes later they arrived at Darien's. Ty answered the door for them and smiled.

"You're late."

"I let Serena get some extra beauty sleep. She needed it." Serena let out a scream of outrage and Ty laughed, joined by Darien who had entered the room in time to hear Rini's comment. Serena smacked his arm.

"Ouch, what was that for?" Darien rubbed his arm.

"You are my boyfriend, you're supposed to stand up for me!" She shouts at him. He pulls her into his arms and kisses her. He lets her go and she just sits there with a silly grin on her face. He winks at Ty and whispers conspiratorially.

"Only way to shut them up." Ty laughs and Darien jumps as Serena smack him again.

"I didn't mean it angel. You know you are beautiful to me always." She smiles satisfied and Ty and Rini smile at the picture they make then look at each other. Rini gives him a shy smile, and Ty blushes and looks away.

Darien looks up from Serena's face and wonders at the blush on Ty's cheeks. He shrugs it off. "So, any news?"

Rini sighs. "Nope, I've been here for over a week and nothing had happened."

Ty looks at her. "Isn't that a good thing?"

She shrugs. "I don't know. There are too many unknowns here. I don't like it."

Serena turns to Ty. "Usually our enemies strike first, and at the first available moment. It's weird to wait this long for an attack. Amy thinks the enemy is very smart to wait and observe us before doing anything. It's just creepy to think of someone watching us, and not being able to do anything. It's like they are playing with us." She shudders and Darien's arms close tighter around her.

Suddenly a voice speaks up behind them. "Play time is over kiddies."

A blast of green light knocks them all off their feet. Darien screams Serena's name, and Rini cries out in pain as she thumps against the bed. As she tries to regain her breath she hears another thump and turns her head to see Ty wrestling with a guy dressed all in black with a green streak running down the side of his pants. While Ty has the guy pinned he yells to Rini and Serena.

"Transform!"

Serena reaches into her pocket for the locket that contained the Silver Millennium Crystal and shouts. "Moonlight Beam, Transform!" There was a flash of silver light and Serena stood transformed into Sailor Moon. But Rini was surprised to seethe familiar red blue and white uniform had undergone some changes. Serena's uniform was now silver with a translucent light blue skirt. The ribbons were the same light blue. The red things in her hair were now silver, as was he tiara. She now held a light blue staff with a silver carving of the moon as a crescent on top.

Again a thud brought her attention back to the man in black. The stranger now had Ty pinned against the wall and was beating him mercilessly. Rini screamed his name. Serena ran over to her.

"Quick Rini, your transformation is Pink Moon Beam, Transform! Hurry!"

Rini grabbed the charm on her necklace. It held her own version of the Silver Millennium Crystal. When she had started to grow, her parents had held a celebration. Rini was to make a grand entrance to show off her maturing body. Queen Serenity had labored weeks to make the party go off without a hitch. Rini remembered how proud she had been of the new miniature version of her mother dress. But when making her entrance, she had collapsed on the stairs. The entire party watched in shock as their princess fell to the ground. Some even ran to help her, but when she started glowing a light pink and levitating, everyone backed up. As they watched her limp body floating in the air a shimmer erupted from her chest and a new crystal emerged in the light. She had woken to find her new dress ruined and a new crystal in her possession. That was when the rumors that she was soon to take over the throne began. What other reason could there be for the emergence of a new Crystal?

As these images from her past, and the future swept over her mind Rini grasped the Crystal and screamed out. "Pink Moon Beam, Transform!" And with a blast of pink light she stood in an almost identical uniform to Serena's, except where Serena's was blue, hers was pink. Instead of a staff, she held a sword that glowed silver.

She glanced round the room to she the man staring at the two of them.

"Well, its amazing you managed to keep your identities secret from your other enemies with that colorful display."

"Who are you? We warn you, we don't like strangers attacking our planet!" The man laughed at Rini's words.

"Oh, but my dear Queen, we are not strangers. Indeed, you will become quite familiar with me eventually." Ty let out a low growl and the man pushed him back harder against the wall. Rini cried out in anger.

"That's enough, let him go!"

"Or what, my Queen?"

Rini swung her sword around and yelled out, "Crescent moon beam retaliation!" and a jet of silver light poured from the sword to the man. He quickly pushed Ty in front of him, and the full blast caught Tyrone. Rini watched in horror as he crumpled to the floor.

Serena grabbed her staff and swung it under the man's legs and he fell. She held the sharp end of the crescent moon at his throat.

"I believe Sailor Mini-Moon asked you a question. Let me repeat it for you. Who are you?"

He laughed. "Oh I see why they still sing your praised Neo Queen Serenity. It's a pity. I'll gladly answer. I am the savior of my people. Also known as Jarede Delamore."

Rini's head popped up from staring in helpless fury at Tyrone's still body.

"Delamore… What?"

"But he just laughed and grabbed onto Serena's staff, moving it from his throat before jumping up. He gave a bow to Rini and disappeared in a flash of green smoke.

There was a coughing sound, and Darien emerged from under a pile of rubbish. Only to find Ty in a heap on the floor, Rini staring in shock at an empty space and Serena kneeling on the floor looking up at Rini. The entire scene hazed by green smoke.
