Chapter 9 - Kalli, Kimi, and the Black Crystal

That night I had disturbed dreams. Shivering, I woke up and went to get a glass of water. As I returned, I was sipping when I noticed the patio doors were open. It was raining again, only this time there were thundershowers and some of the rain was pouring in.

Walking over I whispered hello. There was no answer. Then I saw a girl standing in the doorway. "Naru," she whispered. "Help me."

The next noise I heard was the noise of the glass that was in my hand crashing into a million pieces when it hit the floor. The girl came closer. She looked up.

Recognizing the girl, I began to cry. "Oh, Chibi-usa I'm so glad you're okay!" I said. Then I looked at her. "But who was the other person I saw with the shadows?" I asked.

Chibi-Usa began to cry. "Big girls don't cry," she said as if to soothe her fear.

"What is it? What's wrong?"

Another girl appeared in the patio doorway. Just as she did, Hikari and the others entered the room. They were surprised to see Chibi-Usa.

The new girl looked directly at us. Her eyes were blood red, but we couldn't make out her other features due to the darkness. A flash of lightning lit the room up enough to see.

"Two Chibi-Usas?" Rei stated.

The first Chibi-Usa looked at the other one. "She's been chasing me since I escaped. She's my evil twin, created from the Black Crystal, which is the evil twin crystal to the ginzuishou. Help me, please." Chibi-Usa said desperately.

"Eos Moon Power, Make Up!" I yelled, and transformed to Sailor Eos.

"Sailor Eos?" Chibi-Usa mouthed in surprise.

All of the other senshi transformed as well.

"Get out." I demanded the evil Chibi-Usa.

She laughed. I knew that she was nervous because of all the Sailor Senshi being there. Then she threw five shadows out and fled.

These shadows were tougher. Each senshi took on a shadow, while the evil Chibi-Usa left. Grabbing Chibi-Usa I ran after her.

"Can you transform?" I asked her.

"Y-yes," she said, shaken. "That's why I ran away, because they were going to try and take the Pink Moon Crystal tonight."

She called out, "Moon Crisis, Make up!" but it wouldn't work.

"Oh, no!" she said. "What do I do now?"

"It probably won't work because Sailor Moon..." she trailed off.

"Sailor Moon...what?" I asked.

"It probably isn't working because Sailor Moon and I only used this transformation when we were linked."

"Show me your locket." I told her.

She handed it to me.

I put my hand on it and concentrated, praying that my power could help. Suddenly there was a flash and in place of Chibi-Usa's locket was a heart shaped one with a bell, having a blend of silver-pink and gold. Chibi- Usa's eyes widened. She gratefully took the locket and called out, "Pink Moon Eternal, Make Up!" transforming into Eternal Sailor Chibi-Moon.

Although the evil Chibi-Usa had gotten ahead, I knew a way that we could catch her. Telling Eternal Chibi-Moon to hold on, I grabbed her hand and imagined myself a few feet in front of evil Chibi-Usa. Using the teleport ability that I had, Chibi Moon and I landed directly in front of the girl. However, we weren't in Tokyo. The area emitted a feeling of pure dread and fear. It was dark all around and I realized that we were in another dimension. Chibi-Moon clung to my arm, as she had been here once already.

"What makes you think that you can defeat me in my own world?" the girl said.

"Chibi-Usa! You will not get away with what you've done." I said rather bravely.

She walked directly up to me. "My name is not Chibi-Usa. You may refer to me as Kalli Mikano."

At least her name was suitable. "The Black Goddess of the New Moon."

As far as I knew, Chibi-Moon and I were trapped.

I touched my tiara. "Moon Twilight Flash!" I yelled, blinding Kalli and lighting up the room. I looked around. There were many cages. Most were vacant, but what surprised me and relieved me at the same time was that Usagi and Mamoru were there. I ran over to their cells.

"Usagi! You didn't betray us!" I yelled with happiness.

"Naru?" she yelled. Then a look of fright came over her. "Watch out!" she said.

Ducking, I felt a slight breeze as two shadow swords zoomed over my head and stuck into the wall.

Turning around, I realized that Kalli had called for reinforcements. Next to her stood Usagi, the dark one, holding a crystal that I assumed could only be the Black Crystal Chibi-Usa had mentioned.

I stood in a battle position, readying myself, as did Chibi-Moon.

Back at Sendai Hill Temple...

 The shadows had all been defeated and the senshi were standing around trying to figure out where Sailor Eos and Sailor Chibi-Moon had gone.

"I don't know where they disappeared." Mercury said as she scanned the area with her visor. Suddenly, she saw something."Wait a minute. I'm seeing a small dimensional rip. It looks like a tight squeeze, but I think we can make it with the Sailor Teleport." She turned off her visor.

"Kin!" Hikari stated. "Stay here and watch out for other youma."

He nodded.

"Alright. Let's get going!" exclaimed Jupiter.

They called out their henshin phrases. "Mercury Crystal Power!"
"Mars Crystal Power!"
"Jupiter Crystal Power!"
"Venus Crystal Power!"
"Cosmos Power!"
"Sailor Teleport!"

With that they transported themselves through the rip.

Back inside...Sailor Eos POV

I looked over and saw a small rip opening, and the Sailor Senshi coming through. Kalli was throwing attacks at me left and right, and they were becoming increasingly difficult to avoid.

"Eos Boomerang!" I yelled, throwing my tiara at Kalli and hitting her square in the chest, knocking her down.

She stood up and shot the tiara back at me, saying, "Black Moon Boomerang!"

I dodged her attack and caught the tiara. It was strange. I was fighting Kalli while Chibi-Moon was fighting the dark Usagi. However, outcomes weren't looking so good for either of us.

"Let's combine our power." I told Chibi-Moon. She nodded.

We put our hands together and called out our henshin phrases, sending a pillar of white light at both Kalli and Dark Usagi. Kalli was looking very weak.

"Can't you handle them yourself?" Dark Usagi said sharply to Kalli.

"But Kimi, I'm not strong enough yet! The black crystal hasn't given me full power!"

"Baka!" Kimi yelled. "If you are not strong enough now, you are not worthy of the Black Crystal's power."

Looking at dark Usagi, whom I now knew to be Kimi, I noticed her eyes flicker and she disappeared.

Suddenly there was a flash and Sailor Cosmos and the inner senshi were standing in the same room.

"That's me!" Usagi yelped.

"Took us a while to find you but we're here now." Rei said to me.

Kalli looked small where she now stood. She was scared.

"I, Sailor Cosmos, will heal you, small one." Cosmos said. Then she spoke the words, "Silver Moon Crystal Power Kiss," and the light enveloped Kalli.

Kalli began to change. She reverted back to a young girl, brunette, around twelve years old.

"What's your name?" Chibi-Moon asked her.

"My name's Mika," she said. "I can't remember anything from the past week."

I ran over to free Usagi. When I touched the cage bars they had some sort of negative energy, which ran through my body like electricity. I yelled out to Chibi-Moon and Cosmos and they walked over.

"I need some help with this." I said.

They nodded. We connected hands and all three of us mouthed, "Triple Cosmic Moon Power!"

We stood in suspended animation for a few minutes before the cages finally broke down and freed Usagi, and Mamoru.

Sailor Cosmos looked around. "I remember this place." She shivered. The entity that is behind all this is the entity we are battling in the future. It mustn't have been sealed away properly," she said. "We have to get out of here. If it is as strong as it is in the future, neither of us is strong enough to defeat it right now."

I figured that Sailor Cosmos knew what she was talking about, since she had seen the future, so I agreed. After that, everyone followed suit. We teleported back to the Sendai Hill Temple, with the girl Mika, and Usagi and Mamoru in tow.
