The attacks got more and more frequent but I kept fighting… there wasn't much else I could do about it. I would go out for walks at night, just looking at the stars above me and wondering if this is really how I'm meant to live my life… fighting for it every day. I wondered if there were really other sailor scouts out there and if there are where are they?
Well it was another Saturday and this time I was spending the day at Serena's house just hanging out and watching movies with Rini and Serena. The doorbell rang and Serena paused the movie as Rini got up and ran for the front door yelling, "Hotaru's here", to the whole house. Rinis best friend was spending the night and Rini was more than excited.
I followed Rini and Serena to the front door, which opened to reveal three college girls, and a young girl that appeared to be about Rinis age. "Hey guys, come on in. Oh this is Emma, she's new here… she just moved here a few weeks ago from New York." Said Serena politely as Rini hugged Hotaru and they both ran upstairs to Rinis bedroom, 'and this is Trista, Michelle, and Haruka". "Hi." I said shyly as I shook hands with Serena's friends.

Trista felt odd like there was some strange power at work here… then she spotted it… the crystal that was hanging around Emma's neck. She could have recognized it anywhere… it's the crystal of the sun princess.

"Um Serena? May I talk to Emma in the backyard… alone?" asked Trista as she gave Haruka and Michelle a glance that meant this is sailor business and it's important. "Sure", answered Serena with a strange expression on her face, "lets go in here… maybe we can find a movie to watch", Serena finished as Michelle and Haruka followed her into the living room while glancing over their shoulders trying to see what was going on with Trista and Emma.
Trista gently took my hand and walked me outside where she let go and looked at me with the most serious face I have ever seen. Something was wrong I knew it… and I was scared. "Do you know what that is?" she asked as she pointed at the crystal hanging from my neck. I guess she saw the look on my face change from confusion and fear to Oh no I'm in trouble now and fear because the expression on her face changed from seriousness to understanding and the next thing she said was, "How long have you known about it?" " Two months", I sighed, "I found the crystal in an old box when I moved… wait, how did you know about my crystal… I'm not going to have to fight am I? Because I'm really not in the mood for that right now." Trista giggled softly, "No… I'm a friend… I'm here to help you not hurt you. I'm sailor Pluto. I've been searching for you for so long… but these past couple of months you've been right under my nose, haven't you?" Pluto giggled and smiled softly and somehow I knew I could trust her. " I won't tell anyone just yet but I think you should know that your friends Serena, Mina, Lita, Amy, Raye, Rini, and even Hotaru, Michelle, and Haruka are all sailor scouts too." "And all this time I was wondering if I was alone and if there are other scouts at all where they are but really you guys were right here all along! I can't believe this!" " Well life can be a little deceiving sometimes." Replied Trista with a smile as we walked back into the house ad sat down with the others to watch a movie.
