Pretty Soldier Sailor Galaxia
Episode 2: The End of the World! The Earth will Crumble into Dust.

A cool feeling ran along Galaxia's forehead. She murmured lightly in her sleep, quivering under the touch. Slowly, her eyes opened.

A nurse was leaning down above her, a worried look on her face. In one hand, she held a cloth, in the other, a bandage.

"What ... ?" Galaxia attempted to sit down, but the nurse only pushed her light down.

"Hush, Your Majesty," she said gently. "You are far too weak to get up now."

Galaxia faintly remembered the fight earlier. Ignoring the nurse's concern, she forced herself up, glancing around the room. She discovered she had been placed in a single room.

"Where are the Animamates?" she asked. "They were here before ..."

"They are taken care of," the nurse reassured her. "There is no reason to panic. All of them will be alright. Now," she gave her a warning look.

At the firmness in the woman's voice, Galaxia allowed herself to be pushed back onto the bed. The nurse began to unwrap her wounds, tsking loudly at a deep gash on her arm.

"That shadow certanly got you," the nurse said, her eyebrows furrowed. "But this wound will heal. It would be so much easier if their was a healer in this kingdom, who could heal such injuries."

Galaxia smiled weakly, remembering the warrior Sailor Saturn, from Earth. She could protect and heal; certainly, she would be useful. But that was impossible - it was too hard to return to planets so far away.

Only two years had passed since Galaxia had departed from that Solar System; despite the fact she had been an enemy for so long, the warmth in the Moon Princesses heart had caused her to miss them immensely.

"Dinner shall arrive soon," the nurse said suddenly. "Just in case you are hungry."

Galaxia nodded, and then glanced up. "How long was I asleep?"

"Several hours," the nurse said, and left.

Siren squealed at the sight of dinner, immediately beginning to eat when it was placed on the small table beside her bed. Crow sighed in exasperation, politely thanking the servant who had given delivered the meal.

"Madam Galaxia's castle is so beautiful!" Siren sighed happily. "She must be so happy living here."

Crow nodded. "It is ... this planet. It must be the most beautiful gem in the universe. Earth, however ..."

Siren looked down at her plate, a light smile on her face. "Indeed."

~

Nyanko had perched herself on her bed, devouring her meal without taking her eyes off of Iron Mouse. The other girl huddled herself in a corner, eating quickly and nervously.

When the cat girl finished her meal, she put down the plate, smirking at Iron Mouse and licking her lips. At this, Iron Mouse wailed, sliding herself under the covers. Nyanko leaped off her bed, but when the nurse stepped in, she crashed to the floor.

"Oh, dear!" the nurse shook her head. "Koneko-chan, you are getting yourself into too much trouble! Your wounds will never heal if you don't stop jumping off the walls."

Nyanko stuck out her tounge, crawling back onto her bed. "It's not Koneko-chan. It's Nyanko!"

"Of course, Koneko-chan!" the nurse smiled, leaning against the doorframe on her elbow.

Iron Mouse fell into a pit of giggles, but was silenced at Nyanko's glare.

"Anyways," the nurse continued, "Madam Galaxia wants to meet with you."

The two girls hopped of their beds, eager to speak with their old leader.

~

Galaxia greeted the quartet with a smile, telling them to sit down on the armchairs arounds her bed.

"We meet again," she said, her eyes glancing over each girl. "There are so many things I wish to speak to you about.

"First, I wish to apologize. I took from you your freedom, and when you did not perform to perfection, I took your lives. It does not matter if I was taken over by the greatest evil in the galaxy - perhaps universe - it was still me.

"Second, I wish to invite you to join me in order to discover the root of this evil. It is not Chaos; it's aura was not the same. Whatever it is, I will find it. I can do this alone; or we can do this together as a team. I will not command you, but we will work together."

She stopped here, looking at the other girls. All of them were deep in thought, their eyes narrowed. At last, Siren looked up. Her eyes shone.

"Madam Galaxia," she said. "I would be proud to serve you!"

Crow smiled at her partner. "Then I will join her. I will serve you as well."

Nyanko crossed her legs, her eyes towards the ceiling, and appeared much more carefree than the others. But the happiness in her voice was not possible to hide. "Alright. I'll go along as well."

Iron Mouse nodded. "I don't want to be left out! I'll help as well."

A smile lit up Galaxia's face once again. "Thank you. We have no time to spare; we shall leave tomorrow morning."

Galaxia had led the girls into the gardens, giving them a tour of the palace. When Siren had found a strange berry growing on a tree, Galaxia allowed her to try it - with delight, Siren proclaimed it the best she had ever tasted.

As they were walking through a maze-like section of beautiful and foreign trees and plants, Crow cried out.

"Look!" she exclaimed. "The sky, it's ..."

Sure enough, another shadow had creeped into the sky. The ground beneath them shook gently - only enough for them to feel it.

"It's back," Galaxia muttered, then her voice rose. "We have no time to lose! Henshin yo!"

Her hand reached into the air. A golden light appeared on her palm, and she closed her hand. "Galaxia ... MAKE UP!"

Nyanko raised her hand as well, and a green light appeared on her hand. "Mau Rei, Make UP!"

Siren and Crow followed suit. On Siren, a blue light appeared. "Meramid Rei, Make UP!"

On Crow, a red light appeared. "Coronis Rei, Make UP!"

At last, Iron Mouse transformed, a yellow light on her hand. "Chuu Rei, Make UP!"

They transformed into new outfits. Each girl had a bodice, with a sailor collar and wavy skirt. In the center of their chests were golden stars.

Sailor Tin Nyanko's costume was a light green. Siren's, a light blue. Crow - light red. And on Iron Mouse, a pale yellow.

Immediately, Siren and Crow leaped into the air, twirling the staffs that had appeared in their hands.

"Siren's SONG!"

"Crow's CRY!"

From their staffs came lights of their colors. The shadow seemed to fall back as the lights hit it - but, they discovered, only to absorb the power and throw it back at them.

Galaxia swore, taking up her sword. A shield appeared around the girls. The golden-dressed woman gasped at the strength of the power, and gasped a warning to the girls.

"Quick - go to the battlements. We have magicians who can help you!"

Nyanko shook her head. "No, Madam Galaxia! They won't be strong enough."

Galaxia didn't bother to argue - she knew that Nyanko was right. Nyanko closed her eyes, a staff appearing in her hands. She thrust it towards the sky.

"Cat's PROWL!"

A green light appeared from her staff, and it hit the shadow. Galaxia took this opportunity to tear away, pulling Nyanko with her.

Just as they moved, the shadow through the power back to the ground - a large crater left in the ground. Galaxia gasped for breath. Her energy had been drained, and she barely at the energy to run.

Galaxia glanced at the three others. "Come! We must leave this planet!"

The girls nodded reluctantly, seeing the damage everywhere.

Galaxia closed her eyes, feeling the power from the other girls.

"Galaxia's Portal!"

Just as they began to disappear, Siren fell away from the group. She screamed in terror, a black shadow around her waist.

"SIREN!" Crow cried.

Galaxia forced herself to pause the portal, and they gasped as a blue light emerged from Siren's chest. She flew to the ground, her eyes closed, her fuku turned to ribbons.

Crow grabbed her friend, picking her up and carrying her back to the circle. Tears trailed down her cheeks.

"We must go now!" Galaxia shouted.

They disappeared from the planet forever.

~

They landed with hard - rolling over the ground several times before stopping.

When they opened their eyes, they were all still transformed, with the exception of Siren.

"This is Demeter!" Crow murmured. "We were here, right before we left."

She lay Siren on the ground. "We have to help her. She hasn't woken up yet."

Galaxia went down to her knees before Siren, touching her forehead, and bringing her hand to hover over her chest. She winced suddenly, and opened her eyes. The expression on her face was undoubtedly paniced.

"Her henshin crystal is gone!" she whispered. "She won't be able to transform."
