Big Sammy and Darien walked
though the door. "Hey, guys and gals! How are we?" Sammy
leaned over to kiss CJ. "Not now," she said.
Sammy
saw Lita's head pop up over the chair. "Oh, never mind."
He leaned against the wall. Darien kneeled next to Serena. (All
the girls have de-hensioned, by the way.)
"Okay. Let's
start with the basics. My name in Kino Rona. I'm 14 years old and
9 months into my training."
"I'm Small Lady, better
known to you guys as Rini, and since I have completed my training
and my mother is unable to fulfill her Senshi duties, I have
become Sailor Moon."
"I'm Aino Jennifer. I'm 10."
"I
am Hino Cary Rebba. I am 9, and so is CG."
"And I am
Tsukino Sammy. I'm 19 years old."
"SAMMY!?!?!?"
cried the girls.
"Long story. Will discus later," he
said.
"But let's discus this one now. All this info is
from Sailor Pluto. Long ago, during the Silver Millennium, the
Earth and Moon were at peace."
"Booooring,"
yawned CM.
"SHHHHHHHHHHH!"
"As I was saying,
they were at peace and Queen Serenity and Queen Beryl were best
friends. Expect at that time she was called Lady Beryl. .
."
"Wait! Hold everything!" Serena wildly waved
her arms in the air.
CJ sighed. "Yes?"
Serena put
two fingers on her forehead. "Let me get this straight. My
mother was friends with the enemy?"
"Well, she wasn't
evil yet," said CJ. "Now, may I finish?"
"Yes!"
said the group.
"Now Lady Beryl had a younger sister, Lady
Maddy. Maddy and Queen Serenity got along, but they weren't very
close. But Beryl and Maddy were; they could read each other's
minds.
"One day, Queen Meltaica came to attack the earth.
She saw the sisters as a chance to get the Silver Millennium. So
she brainwashed them. Meltaica considered Maddy too inferior to
take on the mission to attack the Moon, so she put Beryl in
charge. Beryl felt very powerful and took the name 'Queen'.
Queen Serenity tried, but she could do nothing to bring them back.
So she shut off all connections with the Earth.
"Now by
this time, Princess Serenity and Prince Endymoin had fallen in
love. He snuck onto the Moon many times to tell her what was
happening. But the guards caught him. Luckily, the Queen knew of
their secret correspondence and he was allowed to stay
there.
"Lady Maddy was at the party under cover. Even
though she was on Meltaica's side, she was jealous of Beryl and
wanted to spoil her plans. . .
"Be
careful."
Princess Serenity looked at the woman.
"Why?"
"Because, Your Highness, Queen Beryl will
attack tonight." With that, the mysterious woman
disappeared.
"You know what happened next. But
when Queen Serenity sent everyone to the future, not only did she
want you to have a better life, but if you were to meet Beryl and
Maddy, she wanted you to become friends."
Serena looked at
Darien. "Oops."
"I don't think there was
anything you could have done," Darien told her.
"Anyway,
Queen Maddy was sent to another part of the Dark Kingdom and
didn't wake up until right after you regained your memories. She
decided she was going to attack, but when the Nega-Moon showed up
and she found out that it was Sailor Moon was the Moon Princess
who had the Silver Crystal, she waited a couple months in hopes
she would able to beat you when least expected it." CJ put
her hands in her lap.
Serena looked at Darien. "So Queen
Beryl was Queen Serenity's friend?"
"Wow," said
Rei. "Now I feel guilty."
Lita nodded. Then she
looked at CJ. "You sure that's all true?"
CJ nodded.
"I talked to Sailor Pluto last night about the subject."
"Puu
wouldn't lie," said Small Lady.
"But why is Maddy
attacking us now? I mean, I thought you said she was jealous of
Beryl?" Lita asked.
"She was, but not jealous enough
to want her sister dead, though. Her orignal plan was to steal
Beryl's glory, become Meltaica's mager or 'right-hand man' as you
would call it, and become Queen if Meltaica were to pass away. She
didn't want it at her sister's expense."
"But
Meltaica isn't here anymore," said Rei.
"Neither is
Beryl," said CJ. "Maddy is here for revenge."
Serena,
Lita, and Rei finally decided to let the information sink
in.
"Hey! Where's Mina?" asked Darien.
