It was late at night. Naru was staring out her window. She was

thinking about what happened that day. Both Tsukino, Usagi and

Eternal Sailor Moon were both in a weakened state. Naru saw a

shooting star and made a wish on it.

"Please shooting star, please help me understand and know the

truth what is plaguing Usagi-Chan! Please help her to show

me the truth!"

Naru prayed on the shooting star.

"Usagi, I just hope I can understand what you're going through.

So I can be there to help you out when you need me!"

Naru made her wish. She hoped it would come true for her, so

she could understand Usagi better.

04

It was another restless night for Usagi. Not only massive headaches,

but also the power surges kept pouring energy into Usagi at a fast

alarming rate. Her screams of mental anguish filled the room. Hour

after hour past and no relief in sight. The others hope that Usagi

would be able to get some rest and that these tragedies would end

so Usagi could have a peaceful night. Their wishes must have come

true, because after a few hours the headaches and energy overload

from the Ginzuishou had stopped. Usagi fell into a deep sleep.

The next morning, Usagi was a little better that morning. Luna

greeted her.

"Good morning, Usagi-Chan!"

Luna greeted her. Usagi responded in a cheerful manner.

"Good morning Luna!"

Usagi responded cheerfully, although she wasn't back fully

energized yet.

"I am going to school. Tell everyone that I am okay."

Usagi told Luna.

"I understand."

Luna said as she walked away from Rei's room and left the Hikawa

Shrine. Usagi walked down the street. The Ginzuishou started

acting again. It zapped her with great fierceness. However,

it only lasted for a few minutes. And then it stopped once more.

Usagi was then able to arrive at school with no more further

problems from the Ginzuishou. At school, Usagi was able to

take her seat in the classroom on her own. Usagi tried very

hard to now allow the Ginzuishou to zap her in class. After

school. Naru stopped her.

"Usagi-Chan. Please wait."

Naru begged her to stop long enough to catch up and ask her a

question.

"Usagi, I want to take you to the Juuban Mall. Today they

are featuring a cat show. I think it will be cool for you

to see all types of cats. Will you please come with me?

Oh please?"

Naru asked her. Then Umino showed up.

"Usagi-San!!!! So good to see you!!!"

Umino did his usual nerdy greeting.

"Hi Umino."

Usagi replied to Umino.

"Please Usagi-Chan, please join Umino and myself. We'll have fun

together. Please!!!"

Naru begged,

"Okay."

Usagi reluctantly agreed.

"Thank you Usagi-Chan! Come on Umino, help me support Usagi

so she don't fall."

Naru asked him.

"Alright."

Umino agreed going the other side of Usagi and holding Usagi by the

arm. It didn't take them to get to Juuban Mall very long. They went

inside. They all sat down on a bench.

"Do you want something to drink Usagi? Umino, how about you?"

Naru asked.

"I am not thirsty."

Usagi replied feeling uncomfortable.

"I'll take a orange smoothie!"

Umino announced.

"Okay."

Naru went and purchased three drinks.

"Here, Umino."

Naru handed him an orange smoothie. To Usagi she handed her

a ice cold orange juice.

"Thanks..."

Usagi thanked her in a very low tone.

"I have a good joke. Want to hear it?"

Umino asked.

"Not now Umino! I am sure Usagi don't want to hear it!"

Naru told him. Usagi surprised him.

"Sure, let's hear it."

Usagi spoke calmly.

"Cool! What do you get when you cross a black cat with a lemon?"

Umino asked.

"No. I don't know the answer to that."

Usagi replied.

"It turns into a sour puss!"

Umino revealed the answered.

"Umino! That's an old joke! Don't you got better ones?"

Naru asked.

"No."

Umino answered. Umino was surprised. Usagi giggled to the joke a

bit. Usagi was trying to cheer herself up. But it was a losing

battle. Usagi was trying very hard for her friends to not worry

over her. She had enough on her own.

"Let's go see the cat show Usagi-Chan!"

Naru suggested.

"Okay."

Usagi agreed. Naru, Umino, and Usagi walked over where the cat show

was being held. They saw all kinds of cats. Short hair, long hair,

Himalayan, Siamese, Persian, Calico, and all sorts of breeds. The

Himalayan breed stole Usagi's heart.

"Those Himalayan cats are beautiful."

Usagi stated in a cheerful manner.

"Yeah. It kind of makes you forget about all of your troubles.

Right Usagi-Chan?"

Naru asked.

"Yeah."

Usagi agreed. They walked around for a while until Usagi spoke

again.

"I need to rest. Let's find a bench."

Usagi requested.

"Sure."

Naru replied. They held on to her as they walked. Usagi felt the

energy building in her brooch. It was about to zap her again! In

response to it she pushed Naru and Umino away. They fell to the

floor. However, they weren't hurt.

"Usagi! What's wrong?"

Naru looked concerned. Finally, the power came out and zapped her!

The overwhelming energy surged on her body incessantly. Naru and

Umino just watched as Usagi screamed. Her massive headaches returned

too causing her forehead to sweat badly. It continued until the

band-aid on her forehead was no longer able to stay on. It feel

to the floor. Then the energy surged stopped and her brooch

started to transform Usagi under its own power without a

transformation phrase. Naru and Umino, everyone else who had gathered

saw feathers forming the different parts of Sailor Moon's costume.

Finally, the transformation was complete and Eternal Sailor Moon

collapsed to the floor and Naru caught her. Naru was stunned, however

she kind of felt there was a connection between Sailor Moon and

Usagi. Eternal Sailor Moon woke up slowly and saw Naru. This time,

Naru called Eternal Sailor Moon Usagi this time.

"Usagi, you have some explaining to do."

Naru urged.

"Explaining? I am not Usagi."

Eternal Sailor Moon tried to deny the fact that she was Usagi.

"Everyone knows who you really are! Your brooch caused you to

transform in front of Umino and myself and everyone else. So

Usagi please tell me everything! I need to know the truth!"

Naru begged. Eternal Sailor Moon looked up at her friend

whom she tried to protect. Usagi loved her deeply and she

regretted keeping her identity as Sailor Moon secret from

Naru-Chan.

"I couldn't reveal to you or anyone that I was Sailor Moon.

If I did, you may have gotten hurt because of me."

Eternal Sailor Moon explained.

"Well, that's one of the mysteries solved. Why have you grown

weaker? Please tell me!"

Naru begged.

"If I told you, you'd cry. It's too sad. It's heart wrenching Naru.

If I told you it would beak your heart."

Eternal Sailor Moon explained to her. She didn't want to tell her.

"Usagi, please tell me!"

Naru begged even more.

"Okay. I warned you. My DNA is being rewritten with the Princess, I

used to be 1,000 years ago."

Eternal Sailor Moon explained.

"Your DNA is being replaced. That explains why you are weak! But,

that still leaves one more question. Why is your brooch zapping

you with its energy?"

Naru asked.

"I don't know. It feels to me it's just a hunch. I think it's

trying to store energy and power in my body."

Eternal Sailor Moon explained.

"That makes sense I guess."

Naru replied.

"That's all I can tell... I am exhausted..."

Eternal Sailor Moon fainted. Later... she woke up at Juuban

Hospital. There were Naru, Umino, Rei and the others.

"Usagi, you had us worried. Not only that you worried a lot

of people Usagi."

Rei told her, but didn't scold her.

"Rei's right. You could have hurt others. What do you have to

say Usagi-Chan?"

Makoto questioned her. Eternal Sailor Moon had already retransformed

back into Usagi. Usagi spoke softly.

"I couldn't control it. Like yesterday, I had no power to control it.

I pushed Naru and Umino out of the way so they weren't injured

because of me."

Usagi answered.

All the others were able to slip away. They went to Mako-Chan's

apartment.

"Usagi, I am keeping you here permanently. You aren't allow to leave

unless someone goes with you. Under stand?"

Rei ordered.

"But..."

Usagi tried to reason. Rei wouldn't budge.

"Your condition is going to cause innocent people to get hurt!

It's safer for you if you stayed here."

Rei sounded harsh on Usagi, however it was for the best.

"Go easy on her Rei, she's been through a lot lately. She needs

support not scolding."

Mamoru explained to Rei.

"You're right. Just rest Usagi. We'll see to your comfort."

Rei told her.

"Rei..."

Usagi felt like crying. Usagi just laid there. Her biggest battle

lies ahead of her and something very sinister! Be there!
