"Who is that?" Ami asked.
"I don't know, but I thinks she's egging me on."
"I am." The rider said then revved her engine. "I wanna race, Sailor Uranus."
"What?"
Haruka was thrown back. There was no way?
"Let's see if your riding skills are as bad as your fighting form."
"I knew it! Your that new wannabe Sailor, Sailor Sun."
"No wannabe. I'm the real deal and it's time we settle this."
"Your on!"
She ran for her bike and slammed on her helmet. With three motions, she brought the bike to life and started off. The other girl looked over at Usagi.
"If she wins, I'll come back and tell you all I know. She loses, You'll just have to wait."
She gunned the motor and started after Haruka. A hale mile down the street she caught up with the outer senchi at a stoplight. They looked at each other and both gave death stares though there helmet shields.
"Straight down to the pair. First to hit the brakes loses." Sun said over the engines.
"Don't expect me to go light on you."
"Thank you."
The light turn green and the race was on. As the two races streaked down the road, the two Sailors only had one thing on there minds, victory. They weaved in and out of traffic at reckless speeds, the cars adding extra danger to the race. Haruka evened out on the right with Sailor Sun, the two not giving an inch.
"Fool."
Sailor Sun threw left hand out and down, so Haruka could see what was in it. Her arm began to glow yellow and green then her whole body. In a flash, she had turned into her Sailor form. The remaining energy flashed into the bike and she gunned the engine. She pulled forward.
"Oh no you don't!"
Haruka said as she pulled out her own pen.
"Uranus Planet Power Make UP!"
Her body was engulfed in gold light and became her fuku. The energy filled the bike and pushed her back even with Sun. They flew on toward the pier. Sun could see the ocean ahead, and an unfinished bridge in front.
"Perfect."
She sped straight for it. Uranus started getting scared. If Sun went start for the very edge, Uranus would run the risk of send herself. She wasn't scared about herself, she could easily jump off and not get hurt, she was just worried about her bike. The edge approached. If Uranus was going to make it to the edge she needed to stop in 15 more seconds, 14 more, 13 more. She counted down the seconds. 5 more, 3 more, 1 more. She hit the brakes and skidded sideways. Her wheels stopped inches from the edge. Sun didn't stop. She zoomed past Uranus and went over the edge.
"No!" Uranus screamed.
She threw over her bike and tossed off her helmet. She ran to the edge and looked down. As she fell, Sun activated her anchor. She released it from her arm and twisted the chain around her. Then she snapped the anchor itself to her back and opened it like fine gold wings. The rest of the chain she threw down and wrapped around her bike. Her new wings carried her and the bike up to the bridge. Uranus was stunned.
"Hey, Uranus. Catch my bike will ya."
The chain began to loosen as Sun lowered it to the ground. Uranus grabbed hold of it and helped her take her bike and lean it up next to hers. Sun landed next to Uranus and disengaged her anchor.
"So, I guess I lost." Uranus said with a smile as Sun took her helmet off.
"I guess so. Sorry for cheating though. I didn't tell you I could turn my anchor into wings."
"So why'd you race me?"
"I want to tell you this in private, away from the other Senchi. And, I wanted to see if you were as good on your bike as I hoped you'd be. We might need your speed skills in the near future." She said as she put her helmet on her bike.
"It's about the enemy, isn't it?"
"Not just the enemy, about me and where I'm from, and how I know who you are. I want to tell you most of all because I know that you don't take kindly to new Sailors on your turf. First of all, as you know, I'm not from this planet. In fact I'm not even from this solar system. I am a Senchi from the outer reaches of the universe from a planet called Tateza. My people are peaceful, much like the people on this planet. I protected my home for along time. Then, Galaxia came. She took my star seed and the star seeds of the people. When Sailor Moon restored the star seeds, I was revived along with them and the inhabitants. My queen was also restored. I came her to find Sailor Moon to thank her, but then I found your planet threatened. I decided the best thing to do was to make my presence known to as few as possible so as not to draw the attention of the enemy."
Sun ended and looked up at Uranus.
"That's quite a beautiful story." Uranus said, now sitting on the railing of the bridge. "But you didn't tell me how you know who we are.
"I have an ability which lets me read a person's history. I read yours at the battle with Lacerta. I learned all about you and your comrades and who they really are. A tried not to dig too deep into your lives, I thought it might be rude."
"Thank you. Neptune and the rest of the outer senchi have been though a lot and some memories are better left being secrets."
"I've done a lot of things, myself, I'm not proud of. My hands aren't clean by any means, but I get by. I live for myself, and my home."
"Same here. But don't you have other senchi who help you?"
Sun looked down in silence for a while.
"I don't know where they are."
"Oh, sorry. I appreciate you tell me this. You're alright for a senchi. If you need any help with these new guys, give me a call. I won't tell Sailor Moon about this. But I have to tell Neptune and the outers. You can trust them."
"And you can trust me with your identities. I won't blab."
"Thanks. See ya."
Uranus hopped on her bike. She put on her helmet and waved to Sun before taking of down the highway, detransforming as she went. Sun watched her leave.
"Well, looks like you made a friend." Said a voice behind her.
"She's an outer Senchi, like us."
"So what about these enemies? Do we need her to find us?"
"Nah. Let her have her fun, for now."

"My lord, Lacerta has been defeated."
"You think this is news to me? I know already, you fool. Go send another Tsume!"
"Yes, my lord!" The young lord said as he retreated.
"Why do I put up with that infidel."
"Cause he's great at parties, Oniisan." Said a young man as he stepped out of the shadows.
He was dressed in a white royal robe with gray lining. His hair was cut short and a deep chestnut and his eyes a deep golden brown.
"Ah, good to see you up Procyon. You've been sleeping for an eternity. Why do you insist on sleeping so much?"
"I just don't have enough energy and besides, there's nothing to do. Trying to resurrect her is wearing me out. Are you stealing my energy too?" The last part he said was thick with sarcasm.
"Don't be such a fool otouto. I'm helping you with this arrangement. Don't forget our promise."
"How can I forget. You take every chance to remind me."
"Because I can, otouto, because I can."
