More Honorable Reinforcement
"So this Takashi is your brother?" Makoto asked Raion who was still standing by Yori near the window, with his head bowed down in shame he answered "Yes", Makoto pushed her fist in her hand and gritted her teeth. "I knew there was something weird about that guy. Going around talking shit about us like he did!" she said with anger in her voice. "Makoto! Don't bother, Raion has always had a distinction for others" Yori said then pointed at Raion who looked depressed and despaired "OH! I'm sorry, my lo-I-I mean Raion" she said now feeling bad about everything that she said. "It's all right, I am just exhausted with hoping and praying that my brother could see the light or at least be the brother that I have always wanted" Raion explained. Everyone was now sympathetic to him, Rei tried to change the subject by asking " Uh, Raion? You said something about the next task? Will it involve the use of the crystal?". "Usagi's got the crystal with her!" she exclaimed and everyone was now in a state of panic "Calm yourselves, all of you" Raion commanded but everyone was chattering to many things to one another that Raion couldn't get a word out "Everyone please! Listen!" he said louder and yet still no luck. "Listen!" he said again but the more louder he forced his body to give out, the more stronger the burning sensation of his chest was getting, suddenly Raion gasped in shock, suddenly he clinged onto his chest. That managed to finally get everyone's attention "Raion!" everyone called at the same time while they were about to rush to his side. He told them to remain where they were as he sat in one of the spare couches with his elbows resting on his knees and panting hard. "The crystal won't leave Usagi unless she hands it to him" he explained while panting hard "What is wrong?" Mamoru asked as he approach him with a hand on the old man's shoulder "I am sorry" he said after coughing hard. "I'm afraid I wasn't reincarnated like the rest of you" he added with another cough, everyone gasped in shock "I was given the life and body sources of your father" he explained while pointing at Mamoru.
"When Lord Endymion I died in the battle against Beryl, he told Selene to use his body and life sources to help me with stand life on earth, um, call it: my life support if you like" he added his explanation. "But unfortunately a Lunarian being held up alive by the life sources of someone from Earth is not always safe" Raion explained, everyone either stood or sat in silence waiting for what they guestimate is the bad side to Raion's "Life support" "I am dying" he finally said and yet he didn't express any fear. The Senshi's eyes were all beginning to fill up with tears "Dying? Can't Hotaru heal you?" Makoto asked in a sad voice. Raion shocked his head "Unfortunately not. This body is poisoning me, I have managed to survive 3 years in a coma but time is running out for me...I don't know if I'll be live long to complete this spell that may help us in what lies ahead" Raion explained now with a concern look on his face as he turned his head and looked at the window that viewed the front of the house. "What lies ahead?" Mamoru asked who knelt next to Raion, but before Raion could let out another part of his long explanation; a knock on the door interrupted him. "Who could that be?" Michiru asked as she walked to the door "Wait!" Mamoru exclaimed as he quickly rose up to his feet "It might be the enemy" he added, everyone all stood up and prepared themselves for whatever surprise it would be.
Michiru opened the door slowly at first then gradually opened it wide enough for everyone in the living room to see a young man that was carrying a cat traveling box, he was about the same age as the Inner Senshi, with brown short hair and dark brown eyes "Relax! I'm not one of the enemies" he said with one hand held up before Michiru. Everyone except Ami and the Inner Senshi all stared confused and in defense "Hello Miss Mizuno, it's been a long time" he said smiling at Ami from where he stood "Ryo!" she exclaimed as she dashed to him happily. It was Ryo Urawa, one of the rainbow crystal carriers and the only one with psyche powers, Ryo placed down his travel box and opened his arms to embrace Ami. "Oh it feels so good to hold you again, Ami" he said with his arms tightening around her waist "I am so glad to see you" she said with tears flowing out of her eyes. "Hey! It's good to see you again, Ryo" Makoto exclaimed happily as she started to lower her guards and so were the rest of the gang. "But what are you doing here?" Ami asked as she parted from him then noticed the travel case and was curious about it " And what's in there?" she asked while pointing at it " Oh, he followed me, I recognized him from the day that Mamoru tried to recapture the ex-rainbow crystal carriers" he explained as he knelt down and opened it. He reached in and pulled out a very large heavy cat, to Luna's surprise it was Rhett Butler "Apparently, he knows about what is happening and wants to help" Ryo explained while holding him in his arms. "We're here to help, Lord Raion with saving the Earth from this evil god!" he answered with a smile on his face and determination in his voice. The general and the Outer Senshi gasped in shock by every word he just said, it was almost like he was with them while they were listening to Raion's long story about Kyross.
"Everyone, this is Ryo Urawa he is a friend of ours" Ami introduced to everyone that was looking at them "Ryo?" Raion said looking at the boy as he rose from his seat and approached him. The king walked to the boy's face and in the next 3 seconds that passes, Raion smiled "Oh Yes! The boy with psyche powers that carried one of the rainbow crystal" he exclaimed with his hands on Ryo's shoulders. "I was wondering why you didn't detect me" he asked "I knew you were under cover at the time but I knew that you would reveal yourself someday and it wasn't my powers that told me that" Ryo explained. "It's an honor to meet you, Raion" he added. Raion was very pleased to see that this boy didn't call him "My Lord" like everyone seemed to say "And you" Raion said to Rhett Butler "You are very brave to be here" he complimented both of them. "We didn't come here alone, Sire" Ryo said as he pointed out at a car that was parked in the driveway and with four young ladies that were the about the same age as the Inner Senshi. Ami and the Inner Senshi ran to the door and passed Raion to see them, they recognizes them from their battle against the Dark Phantom. Seated in the driver seat was Petz, seated next to her was Berthie, the first woman was Koan and finally the last one was Calaveras. The four woman claimed out of the car and ran to embrace their saviors and friends "What are you guys doing here?" Makoto asked while hugging Berthie "Ryo came to our house badgering on about the end of the world and that the Man of the Moon needs our help" she explained as they parted so that they would be facing each other. "Once he mentioned you guys and Usagi, we finally believed him and let him in. Then explained everything to us calmly so we raced over here to help" Petz explained the rest with Minako in her arms.
"Hey! Are we going to have an orgy party tonight?" Lupus asked in a weak and perverted voice while standing surprisingly behind the Generals "HEY YOURSELF, YOU'RE SUPPOSE TO BE RESTING!" Zoisite exclaimed in a startled and frustrating voice. Everyone paid no attention to Lupus and Zoisite arguing in the house, they only focused on the next line of kind helping hands "These are one of the hundreds of people that your daughter has saved with the Crystal" Rei explained to Lupus along with Raion and the rest of the Outer Senshi who stood with the Generals. "Can they be of help to us?" Ami asked while looking up at Raion "Well their bravery is very honorable but..." Raion said as he stepped out of the house then suddenly sensed something was not right. Everyone now looked at Raion with curios of his behavior "Raion, what is it?" Mamoru asked as he walked to him from behind, Raion didn't answer him until he looked up at the tree across the street from the house. To his surprise, it was the Phantom's spy-eye, perched on a tree branch that was surrounded by leaves, it was almost too impossible for anyone to see...except for Raion. "I had just about enough of you!" he thought to himself angrily then gripped his hand that had his ring, he raised his hand out to the hawk as the ring glowed " GET DOWN!" he shouted to the ladies that were in the driveway. They gasped as they did what he commanded "Moon Twilight Lion!" he commanded and the ring formed into his shield "Seek that spy!" he added then suddenly the white lion leaped out of the of it once again. It roared as he leaped over the ladies on the ground and over their car, Eye saw the lion running up toward him and squadded at him then flied out of the tree. The white lion chased after the hawk down the street, Raion ran on the street and watched him disappeared "Where's he going?" Mamoru asked running from behind Raion.
"We have been spied on this whole time" Raion explained while still looking down the street where his lion had vanished "Everyone get transformed now, we-" Mamoru shouted to the Inner Senshi but Raion stopped him "No! He will be back, with Usagi hopefully" Raion explained as he turned and walked back to the house. Mamoru stared at Raion shockingly "With Usagi?" the young man as he watched Raion walk to the driveway "You mean he knows where Usagi is?" he asked as he rushed to catch up to Raion and walk along side him "Yes" he answered as they made it to the young ladies who were being helped up by the Generals. "Then aren't we following him?" Mamoru asked now angrily at Raion "Mamoru! I know you are eager to getting Usagi back and so am I but we cannot make any rash attacks just yet" Raion commanded now in a manner like a king would do. "If we went with my white lion, the Phantom and Takashi will follow us back here" Raion explained as they made their way into the house with the rest of everyone following them. As everyone made their way into the house, Michiru and Haruka stood on the door steps of their house in silence "Looks like we are not going to get any privacy tonight" Haruka said with her hands in her pocket and her head bowed down. Michiru only chuckled at her lover.
Meanwhile back at Takashi's mansion, Usagi had slept for the passed seven hours since the hypnosis over dinner while still in her white evening gown. After all the memory flashes finally stopped rushing in her head, she was now seeing an image of a huge throne room with Raion sitting on his throne with his head bowed down on his hands like he was praying. Usagi stared at him from the doorway then suddenly she was surprised to see a little toddler dressed in a white flowing gown, the blonde her and dumpling style made Usagi realizes that the toddler she was looking at was her. The little girl was quietly walking toward Raion, he didn't notice her until she placed her tiny hands on his knee "Otosan?" she said in her little soft tone voice. Raion looked down at her surprisingly, Usagi and chibi Usagi both gasped when they saw tears falling out of Raion's eyes as he looked down on his curious daughter. "Wh-what are you doing up this late?" he asked as he turned his head to wipe away his tears, chibi Usagi looked sadly and curiously up at him "Otosan?" she asked again sadly. Raion looked back at her with a fake smile "I'm all right, really" he said to calm her and assured her, but the little princess could sense that something was bothering her father. She looked at his hand that was now on his knee and rested her little head on his hand "Otosan's crying" she said while looking up at him, Raion gave her a smile then picked her up and place her on his lap. "Listen to me little Rabbit" he said to get her attention "I want you to promise me something" he added "Promise?" Chibi Usagi repeated curiously with her head titled to the side. "Promise me that no matter what, you will continue to see the good in everyone that you meet. Weather they are cruel, heartless, harsh, aggressive, malice or even known as evil; you'll always find a way to reach out to them" Raion explained to Usagi. "Always believe in yourself and to those that you love even to those who do not see your views or your beliefs. Because there is good in everyone and everything, which is why it is important to have faith and to have hope. You promise me that, won't you Usagi?" he said. Chibi Usagi looked up at him quietly at first then nodded her head "Thank you, my little rabbit" he said then held her closely to his chest, grown Usagi stood in the doorway and watched Raion embrace her. Her heart started to get heavy as well as the tears that were over flowing in her eyes "He is really a great ruler and leader, possibly better one then I could ever be." she thought to herself. "I can feel and remember your warm hugs, kisses, and your words. I want him to be apart of my life, I want to know more about myself, my history and Silver Millennium's history. I don't want to ever lose Raion...no, I mean father".
Usagi's eyes opened up to the Phantom's mask leaning very close to her face "Ahh!" she screamed with her hands trying to push him off of her. But the Phantom held her hands down with one hand and the other was pulling down onto the cleavage area, Usagi struggled to break free from him. His grip only got stronger with every small movement that Usagi was making beneath him. When he ripped opened the top of her dress, Usagi knew he was going to penetrate in her and that terrified her enough to let out a loud scream then her crescent moon symbol on her head shined so bright that it blinded the Phantom and the light also ignited a burning sensational wave that sent him flying across the room and slammed him to the wall. The light was shooting right through the roof and to the sky, the white lion and the spy-hawk both stopped to the distraction of the light. Even the rest of the gang that were the Outer Senshi's home, crowded themselves to the window to see Usagi's signal "Usa-ko!" Mamoru whispered to himself.
Back at the mansion, Usagi finally calmed herself down enough to make the light dose out "What?" she asked herself while sobbing as she rose to sit up on the bed and saw the Phantom laying on the floor. He wasn't moving at all, Usagi figured that he was knocked out "Oh God!" she exclaimed as she looked at the door that was wide open and the Doberman wasn't there, Usagi wasted no time in taking this opportunity. With her dress badly torn to the top and her bare breast exposed, Usagi held it close with her hands as she slipped out of the bed and slowly walked bare footed to the door. As she was getting closer to the door, she kept looking at the Phantom while sobbing and trembling out of fear that he was going to wake up, once she got closer to the door she leaned over to allow her head to peek out. When she didn't see the dog in sight, she paced down the hallway to the stairway, she looked down to stairway to see that the cost was still clear. But before she could make her descending down, she remembered her brooch with the crystal in it was back at her room "Oh no!" she thought to herself as she turned and quietly dashed back to her room. Usagi looked from the doorway of her room to see it on the top of the small draw that was next to her bed, she ran to it fast and snatched it but when she spun around to face the door to saw that the Phantom was no longer on the floor where he was tossed at. Usagi started to sweat and pant fast with her heart pounding hard and fast in her chest as she looked all over the room then just tried to make a run for it to the door. And just when she thought she was halfway- free to the stairs the Phantom was standing at the bottom of the stairs with a torn pieces of her dress dangling in his hand mockingly. Usagi figured he was trying to tell her "We're not done yet", Usagi tried to make a run for the opposite direction of her bedroom and when the Phantom used his majestic cloak to teleport himself in front of Usagi. But his mistake was that while he was being teleported, Usagi grabbed a hold of a vase that was in the hallway. When he merged out before Usagi, she swung the vase straight at his head and sent him to the floor "We are now!" she said as she made the right decision to head back to the stairway.
Usagi didn't look behind her as she was just about to reach for the doors the Phantom merged from out of his cloak again and blocked her path to the door. Usagi screamed again as she turned and tried to run to the dinning room with the Phantom chasing her from behind, as she dashed to the table with her hands still trying to keep her dress close and staying away from him. Usagi circled the table with the Phantom on the other side trying to catch her on the other side of the table, they both danced left and right. Usagi knew she could not stand on her side of her forever and all her thoughts about escaping from him were growing very thin, her thoughts now dwelled on small memories that just bursted in her head the longer she stared at him. She sighted an image of the Phantom entertaining her when she was a toddler on the Silver Millennium, with his magic tricks with his cape and his cards of holograms, the Phantom made the little princess happy. Usagi's fear was combined with her anger toward the Phantom before her "HOW COULD YOU! HOW COULD YOU!" she shouted at him with her eyes now red from all her crying "You were a friend of my father's and a friend to the knights too, why would you do this to me...to us?" she shouted to him again.
"Because this Phantom no longer serves the Silver Millennium under the command of your father" Takashi said from the entrance of the dinning room. "He serves only me now" he said as he walked in with that same smirked grin on his face and the same Doberman growling at her. Usagi backed herself up until she was surprised to find the Phantom's arms wrapped around her from behind "I do however apologizes for the Phantom's rude intrusion in your room" Takashi said as he stared at her bare breast and noticed her torn dress, he approached them with his hands behind her. "It won't happen again" he said as he pulled out the pocket watch from behind him, he tossed it to the Phantom. Usagi remembered how the Phantom knocked her out on the beach and when she saw the Phantom rasing the watch over her face, she knew that she was going to be knocked out again.
Suddenly by surprise to everyone there, the white lion from Raion burst through the window with what looked like a dead carcass in his mouth. The lion landed on the table and tossed carcass at the Phantom's face, it seemed to startle him so much that he released Usagi from his arms. After the Phantom tossed the carcass away from him and his watch was on the floor, the lion leaped from the table and stood between Usagi and the villains. He took the watch into his mouth while Takashi looked closely at the growling lion and recognized him. "So, Raion still harnesses the Moon Twilight Lion" he said with his hand holding his chin "Hmm! Goliath!" he commanded to the dog next to him, the dog leaped to the white lion and grabbed a hold of the ear. But the poor dog didn't stand a chance against a lion, the white beast tossed his head to the side and bashed the dog with his big strong claws. Just as the lion was about to launch at the canine with a threatening urge to kill it, Usagi stopped it "NO! No, there is no need to kill him" she said with a hand on his back. The lion turned to face her then bowed to her "How noble" Takashi said "But that watch belongs to him" he added while pointing at the Phantom who drew out his sword and raced to the lion. But the white beast didn't make any attempt to attack him and he maintained a great distance from the Phantom, Usagi notice that Takashi was distracted by how clever and well smart the lion was to the Phantom. It was almost like he knew all the Phantom's tricks, Usagi slowly snuck away from Takashi and toward the broken window "Usagi?" Takashi called sarcastically as he was about to approach her but luckily the lion managed to dodge the Phantom and get to Usagi. The lion backed up along side of Usagi, the two of them managed to reach for the window at last. But before she could mount the lion, the Phantom was about to make an attempt to stop them from leaving with the watch, the crystal and Usagi, Takashi stopped him with one hand held to him then looked to Usagi. "You can tell your father for me that he was too weak to rule anything and not to worry. Because when the alignment is complete, he won't have to worry about being called by his royal title" he said spitefully, Usagi mounted the giant lion and it leaped out through the window. Usagi didn't breath a sigh of relief until she saw the mansion far behind her but when the lion leaped over the stoned fence she laid her head on the back of the lion and held on to him. She knew that she was safe and that this lion was taking her to her friends. Meanwhile back at the mansion where Takashi stood and looked at the window "That son of a bitch!" Yukio exclaimed angrily "What?" Takashi asked as he removed his glasses and rubbed his eyes. "It killed Eye" Yukio answered with his mask off and the hawk in his hands, Takashi turned and saw the carcass then walked over to the phone that was in the hallway. "You better get ready, you still have class today" Takashi instructed calmly as he dialed a number, Yukio looked at him with a confused look on his face. He rushed to face him but Takashi was speaking to someone "Yes I need a replacement on my window in the dinning room. Oh yes it is very serious" he said over the phone. Yukio realized that his father was calling a window company and just when he was about to question it he was surprised by the choices of explanation to the company "Oh uh A hawk flew right threw it" then hung up. He placed his glasses back on and looked to Yukio "Well you heard what I said; get ready for class. Usagi will be suspicious if you're not there, best thing to do is: You keep close to her and let her fear me" he explained, finally Yukio got his father's plan clear.
At the home of the Outer Senshi, Mamoru was growing angry and impatient for the return of Raion's lion with his Usagi, the Senshi were just as tired of waiting like he was especially the Outer Senshi. Raion only paced himself calmly by the foyer turning every 6 minutes to look at Mamoru who stood by the main window with his arms crossed, suddenly the young man grunted loud and rushed to the front door. "Where are you going?" Rei asked in concern "To look for her" he answered as he grabbed his jacket and slipped it on "Mamoru!" the other Senshi all called out and were about to chase after him. "It's all right" Raion exclaimed loud enough for the girls to hear him but Mamoru was already on the drive way without hearing Raion but before he could mount his motorcycle he sensed something from behind. He turned slowly and saw a white lion pacing on the street with Usagi walking along side of him while holding her dress closed with both hands. She stopped to the sight of Mamoru looking at her while Mamoru felt his whole instincts take over "Usa-ko!" he shouted then dropped his helmet and ran to her "Mamo-chan!" she shouted to him as she ran to him. The couple embraced in the middle of the street with the white lion standing by and watching them, Mamoru held Usagi in his arms so tight that Usagi knew it hurts. But she didn't stop him that feeling of his grip was her pleasure "Are you all right?" he asked as the parted and the young man looked at her torn dress "Yes" she exhaled. "Did he hurt you?" he asked right away as he removed his jacket and placed it over her shoulders "He tried to but I got away with his help" she answered and explained with a hand placed on the head of the lion. "Usagi! Usagi-chan!" the Inner Senshi cried out as they all ran out to her, Mamoru released her from his embrace to let her embrace her friends. Usagi wrapped her arms around Rei who came running up at her first then the rest of the gang gathered around her with their arms all wrapped around one another. Usagi was relived with joy to feeling all her friends and her beloved around her, each girl had something to say that the other one already said for them and Usagi didn't care if she got confused by them. "We have got a lot to fill you in on and we have more help" Makoto explained right away "Really? I can't wait to hear all of...it" Usagi hesitated when she saw Raion walking out of the house and to the lawn.
Everyone that surrounded Usagi backed up to give her space so that she could go to Raion the last other special person that Usagi seemed to have missed most of all. Usagi walked slowly to Raion and stood before him, once again they were both in tears when they looked at each other. Usagi got tired of waiting for him to embrace her, so she leaped into his arms while sobbing and he accepted her exciting embrace. Suddenly Usagi heard Raion chuckle softly from behind her "What is it?" she asked as they parted "This is the second time I have been reunited with you and this time we better get separated again" he explained with a smile and tears in his eyes. "Four" she blurted out "Four?" he asked questionable and confused "This is the fourth time we have been reunited" Usagi clarified to him, Raion laughed loudly while still crying "That's right!" he said then pulled her back to their embrace "That's right" he repeated. "What did he try to do to you?" Raion asked now remembering the sight of her torn dress "It was the Phantom" Usagi answered and now her tears were transformed back to tears of anger and repulse. The Moon king gasped in shock "Are you saying my father might still be alive!" Mamoru asked as he rushed up next to Usagi. "NO! No, Endymion I is dead, nothing can bring him back not even with the crystal" Raion objected calmly "No, this Phantom must be someone else. But who is it?" Raion asked loudly. Usagi then remembered what Takashi said back at the mansion "Uh, Takashi labeled the Phantom as this Phantom, almost like it is a different person" Usagi explained to them "If it is true it must be someone from the Earth royal family because no one can be the next Phantom unless they are a part of the Earth royal family" Raion explained.
Raion suddenly felt a fuzzy nuzzle on his leg and looked down to see his Lion sitting before him with an object in his mouth "Ah! Well done" he commented as he took the watch from the lion's mouth. Then held his ring before the lion, it morphed into his shield and the lion disappeared into the shield "What is that for anyways?" Mamoru asked with his arm around Usagi. "This is what the Phantom uses to hypnotize people, place them in a trans or sleep and when very necessary; erases unwanted memories" Raion explained but then he looked closely passed the arrows and at the crescent moon. Suddenly his finger triggered a tiny switch that was carefully hidden, suddenly the watch glowed so bright that Raion dropped it onto the ground. Everyone was startled and blinded by the light then surprised by the sound of a man's voice "It's about damn time!" he said, soon the light projected an image of a man that was a little older then Raion was. He had a great resemblance to Mamoru only with a thin mustache over his lips and chin "Wh-who is this man?" Usagi asked Mamoru who seemed to be in a trans. "I think he's-" Mamoru answered but hesitated "That is Lord Endymion I, your father" Raion answered fast to Mamoru.
"Son, I don't really have time to explain everything to you but I must tell you this: You and the Senshi must find Lord Raion, the Man of the Moon also the ruler of the Moonkingdom and the Silver Millennium, no matter how much he denies it." he said then chuckles. "You must find my old friend Raion before the planetary alignment is complete in the next two days that is ahead of this exact date, it will be the one chance we didn't have a long time ago. This will be your only chance to killing Kyross once and for all, imprisonment just can't hold him forever especially with Takashi reborn somewhere on Earth with his so-" the projector turned off so soon that he didn't get to finish his information. "Damn it!" Raion grunted as he rose up on his feet and picked up the watch from the ground "What do you think that was, my lord?" Yori asked as he crippled his way to his master. Raion was silent at first while looking at the watch in his hand "What gave him the right to call me old?" he finally responded with his hands on his waist and looking up at the sky. Everyone sighed hard at Yori for saying the two words that he detests being called by, Yori growled loudly then bellowed up to him "RAION!" while jumping in the air "Calm yourself Yori, I heard you" he said calmly with a humorous chuckle. "Endy seemed to have found a way to killing Kyross" he answered as he turned to the Senshi with a positive smile "You mean we may have a chance at winning?" Usagi asked looking up at her father. "Yes and no at the same time" he answered "What do you mean?" Mamoru asked now with everyone including the Outer Senshi, the generals and the four sisters listening in from the lawn. "There is an ancient prophecy of a powerful way to kill an evil god. It says that we; the knights of the Silver Millennium would combine our powers together with the crystal to create a force that would go right through him and...kill him" Raion ended his explanation. "YES! We're good!" Lupus said while coming out of the house leaping for joy in the air "But that would require bringing back the other knights right?" Mamoru asked while Lupus just kept leaping and cheering for joy. Raion made a sad expression then nodded his head "That is why I brought back the generals, I need their Earth life forces to give life back to my friends. The way Endy did for me" Raion explained with his hand pointing at the four generals. "Then what are you waiting for? Do it then!" Kunzite spoke for all of his men "Yes, better now then later-" Zoisite stated but Raion stopped them both "We only have four of you and we need four other people from Earth" the moon king explained again. "Then use us!" Ryo said as he stepped forward from behind with Rhett Butler in his arms "We are from Earth and that's what you need" he added "Ryo" Raion said with a tone that gave the boy the idea that Raion was going to talk him out of it.
"Raion, I owe your daughter" Ryo said then Rhett Butler growled up at him "We owe your daughter and so does every human being that she has saved with the crystal" he added. "I believe you son, but it's nothing like that at all. We are still short on two life forms" Raion explained "We're screwed!" Lupus said now stopping his leap or joy "No your not!" Mamoru said bluntly as he stepped forward to Raion. "You got me as a third life form" he explained "Mamo-chan?" Usagi said with concern and before Mamoru could convince her that it was the only way to save the Earth, Raion added more bad reminder. "We still need one more" he said "Who?" Rei asked desperately "I haven't got the slightest idea" Raion said with his head bow down sadly. Everyone groaned sadly "Uh, couldn't you use one of us?" Petz said as she shyly stepped forward with her sisters behind her "We became human because of your daughter" she added. Raion looked at the ladies quietly at first and a moment of silence passed between everyone then suddenly Raion started to chuckle softly but then his chuckles became louder. Everyone stood in awe at his behavior "Uh, Raion?" Usagi asked while approaching her father "Oh-oh I'm so sorry" he said now trying to calm himself "It's just that I can't imagine how one of the knights could react to being returned as a woman" he explained then continued laughing. Usagi took a moment then saw the hilarity of it all then she started to laugh and soon Mamoru joined the laugh, finally the rest of the gang joined the fun. In the mist of all the laughter, Usagi realized that Raion was trying to comfort everyone and ease their tension with a bit of laughter "Well, let's not worry so much" Raion said as he turned to face everyone. "We still have at least one more option to help us out until we find a final form" Raion explained then looked at the watch and broke off a pieces of the tiny wave from the edge. "Look at this" he said as he turned around and tossed it over the house, it disappeared out of range "What was that?" Lupus asked. "Endymion placed a spell on the watch. Each of these eight waves must be placed in eight particular spot on Earth to create a protective shield that will protect Earth" Raion explained. Lupus suddenly developed an exciting urge to help "I can take the rest there, just tell me where do each of the rest go?" he asked urgently. "What about your bad injury?" Raion asked "Ami healed my back the best way she could and Hotaru did the rest later" Lupus explained, Raion sighed hard then gave up convincing her. "All right, but take these young ladies with you. Drop them off at the locations that are marked on the waves then wait until they are all in set. After that; dropped them on the ground at the same time and the spell will be casted" Raion explained to Lupus as they walked to the four sisters. "That is if you ladies still wish to help?" he said "Of course" Koan responded for all of her sisters.
With Lupus using his teleportation powers to take all four of the women to the next 7 locations of the Earth, Raion then thought about another part in his next plan "Mamoru-san!" he called out to Mamoru. "I will be needing your assistance" he said with a finger pointing at him, Raion then walked to Usagi "And I will be needing the crystal" he said to his daughter. Usagi was confused but she handed Raion the brooch with the crystal in it, one the king got it, he ran into the house "Come Mamoru-san!" he commanded over his shoulder. Before the young prince could follow Raion, he turned to Usagi with his hands on her arms "Could you guys walk Usagi back to our apartment?" he asked the Inner Senshi. "Sure" Minako answered for the rest of the gang, Usagi looked up at him sadly at the idea of going home without him. "I'll be home soon, I will help Raion with whatever he needs then I'll see you soon" he explained, Usagi placed a hand over his mouth and smile "Do what you need to do for the sake of your kingdom" she said positively. Mamoru removed her hand and shock his head "No, our planet. Remember; my planet is your kingdom...when we are married" he said with a bright smile on his face and lust in his eyes, Usagi blushed at how he said it. Almost like he was trying to seduce her in front of everyone including her father "I'll see you at home" he said with a hand on her cheek, Usagi nodded then the couple kissed and Usagi ran with her friends near her. Mamoru stood for a moment and watched his woman leave him behind "Mamoru-san!" Raion bellowed from the balcony of the house "Coming sire!" he shouted back as he ran into the house.
