Aurora stared out the window, her sad deep green eyes counting each raindrop that the window caught. Tsukino Usagi, wearing a slightly damp school uniform, was watching her from the entrance of her room, unhappiness present in her eyes as well. She snuggled Luna in her arms.
"Chibi?"
The small child had pulled on Aurora's (Usagi's) nightgown. The raven-haired guardian ripped her empty gaze from the window and down at Chibi Chibi. She tugged at one of Chibi Chibi's pink bunny ears that was attached to the hood of her footie-pajamas. The toddler squeeled, "Chibi!"
Aurora smiled sadly, I've failed her. I've failed them both.

Episode 204: Aurora's Failure. The New Mission Begins!
"I can't believe I almost forgot about my date with Mamo-chan!" Usagi panted while running in the rain, her umbrella barely protecting her from the falling rain.
She finally reached the Fruit Parlor Crown, spotting Mamoru a few seats inside already. He was staring out the window, with a cup of coffee sitting infront of him. Usagi gasped happily, catching Mamoru's attention, "Mamo-chan!"
"You're soaked, Usako," Mamoru noticed, standing up in respect for the younger woman.
Usagi waved him off with a smile, "I'm fine!"
After a few moments of silence, a red headed waitress came over to serve Usagi with a plate ofa delicious baked good. Usagi gave her a bright smile, "Unazuki-chan!"
"Konichiwa, Usagi-chan," Furahata Unazuki smiled brightly, "Mamoru-san."
Mamoru gave the teenager asmall wave and smile. The green eyed waitress gave an urge to Usagito ask Mamoru a question. Those same green eyes were Motoki's.
"Oi, Mamo-chan. What'sthat thing Motoki-onii-san was talking about?"
Mamoru blinked as Unazuki walked away, completely clueless. "Nani?"
"You know! The BIG thing."
Suddenly it clicked. He reached out to grab Usagi's cold hands. He took a deep breath before, "Usako, lately you have been out of it. You are pretending to be happy. It's like you're pulling a facade around me and our friends. I mean, is it me?"
Usagi blinked. For a second, she thought he was going to dump her on this gloomy day. She laughed, pulling her hands away from his, "Of course not! It's just that... after the battle with Galaxia, when I lost minna-san... when I lost you... I lost all hope in everything around me. They kept me strong. The Starlights kept me together. But when they left... It made me realize that when I am completely alone, what would become of me? And with this new threat, I am completely useless. I don't know what to do."
With that, the pastry below Usagi had soaked up a lone tear.
"You will never be alone. I never left you. Rememer, we were all inside of you when you went against Galaxia. The Starlights made you realize that, like you said, giving you strength to carry on. Those girls are also in you, believe it or not. Don't you ever say that you are useless! You are important to us all. I love you, Usako! Never will I leave you."
Usagi looked up to Mamoru with teary, deep blue eyes. "Arigato, Mamo-chan. Thank you for reminding me. Not transforming discouraged me. I love you, too."
She smiled through her tears. This time, Mamoru could tell that it wasn't fake.

"With Phase One complete," Vain held a blackened starseed in the palm of his hand, "The Cosmic Star Blossom is next on our agenda."
Sailor Cherry Blossom asked from behind, "Do you know who the future queen is?"
Vain smirked, tossing her the starseed, which she caught efortlessly. "Of course not! If I did, I would of gotten her myself."
He turned around and faced the mystic screen. The screen flashes quickly and stopped on a certian golden haired bunny named Tsukino Usagi. After Sailor Cherry Blossom sees her latched on to Mamoru, she stepped up and shouted, "She's the ditz I was talking about earlier! There is no way that she is-"
"Are you questioning me?" Vain growled, black energy sparkled around his being. Thunder clapped and a hard blow escaped Vain's body, sending the pink animamate flying across the field and through an invisible wall.
Before the starwberry blonde could collide to the ground, she crashed into another body. Her behind then smacked the marble floor.
A snicker, "Don't get Vain-sama upset. That's not even half of his fury."
"Mimic!" Sailor Cherry Blossom seethed while gazing upward.
"Have fun!" Mimic giggled and skipped off.

The cat guardian, Luna, quietly enjoyed her afternoon snooze. She stretched out her feline form with a purr. Her half-way open orange eyes searched the room unconsiously. Her eyelids flew open when she noticed a certain figure in the room.
"Aurora-san?"
She dashed under Usagi's bed, the find thatit was junky under there. After a few moments, she emerged from the garbage with a small pink watch in her mouth. She spat it on the carpet and used a furry paw to hit the orange button. She prayed silently that the girls still carried around their old communicators.
"Luna?"
A white feline with large, blue eyes appeared at the screen. He held a worry expression, "Daijoubu?"
Snore!
"Aurora-san is missing! Do you think Minako-chan could contact the others for a search?"
Snore!
Artemis and Luna sweatdropped. The male cat replied with a sigh, "If I can awake sleeping homely."
A light orange pillow was thrown at the side of Artemis's head before the screen went black.
Before Luna could jump from the balcony to start the search, a small voice called from behind, "Chibi?"
Luna turned her head at the exhausted toddler. She had awoken from her nap as well. She smiled, "Stay here, Chibi Chibi-chan."
"Chibi Chibi! Cake!"
Ikuko had called from the bottom of the staircase. Chibi Chibi watched as Luna leaped from the slippery railing. With a "meyorwl!", Luna had landed on the wet ground.
CM Break / Eye-Catch
Usagi latched herself onto Mamoru's arm happily as Mamoru carried the umbrella. The two of them were walking pass the Juuban Junior High School. A bright light emerged from the school's building, catching Usagi's eye.
"What's that?"
"What's what?" Mamoru looked down at his girlfriend.
"That!" Usagi pointed to the roof as the gold light sparked again. She let go of Mamoru and ran off pass the gate and into the school yard. Mamoru followed quickly behind.
On top of the building, Aurora, in her guardian outfit, raised her broach into the gloomy sky.
She shouted, "With the power of the Cosmic, guide me to the Golden Moon!"
The broach gathered heavy gold energy, yet it flickered off quickly. Aurora stared at it sadly, dropping to her knees. She held the broach to her chest, "Shimatta."
"Aurora-san! Daijoubu ka?"
Without turning her head, she knew it was Usagi, "It won't bring me back."
"Mamoru-san!" one voice yelled out.
"Usagi-san!" another one shouted.
"Aurora-san!" a couple more sounded.
Turning their heads, Usagi and Mamoru spotted the four sol senshi, henshined,and two guaudian felines.
"Minna!"
"I've failed." Aurora sobbed, "I've failed Galaxia-sama. I've failed Chibi Chibi-chan. My king and queen. Everyone around me. I even failed myself. I've failed you, Princess."
Usagi smiled sadly and kneeled to the broken golden guardian, "No you haven't. You did your best, Aurora-san."
"Failure doesn't come from defeat, but from not trying,"Luna added.
"Hai! Like we said! We will help you complete this mission!" Jupiter confided.
The three nodded. Aurora smiled and stood.
Usagi offered while pointing at the four senshi behind her, "Maybe they could help you return home."
"That would be great!"
After a few moments, the four senshi surrounded Aurora. Mercury, who was holding Mars' hand, shouted out, "Mercury Crystal Power!"
Mars, next to Jupiter, "Mars Crystal Power!"
Jupiter, "Jupiter Crystal Power!"
And lastly, Venus, "Venus Crystal Power!"
Each of their forhead's began to glow their respected color, their plantary symbols appearing. Aurora raised her broach, her own symbol gaining energy, "With the power of the Cosmos, guide me-"
Clank! (gotta love these sound effects:))
At Usagi's feet, a black starseed had been tossed. She blinked at it as Aurora screamed, "Get away from there!"
It was too late as the starseed released the ropes of black energy, wrapping around and creating a phage. A cat demon emerged from it, "Sailor Neko! Myu!"
The phage spun around, it orange tail enlarging and wrapped around Usagi's body.
"Usagi-chan!" the senshi yelled out of fear.
Super Sailor Venus raised the orange miniture heart in her hand, "Venus Love and Beauty... yawn!"
The senshi of love and beauty had collasped out of exhaustion, letting out a large snore. Everyone, even the phage, sweatdropped. Artemis let out a depressing sigh.
"Good work, Sailor Neko!" Sailor Cherry Blossom had entered the scene usually, "Futureholder of the Comic Star Blossom, my master has been dying to meet you!"
Confused words were exchanged between senshi and cat.
Aurora's green eyes widened, "Masaka."
"Starseed Clamp!" The pink senshi of spring had called forth her weapon, swinging it above her head.
"Mercury Aqua Rhaspody!"
Mercury's water attack had drenched the cat phage, causing it to hiss and release Usagi. Usagi had dropped to the ground, paralyzed for the moment, since Sailor Neko's grip on her body was extra tight.
"Usako!" Mamoru shouts, trying to help her.
Sailor Cherry Blossom released her cherry blossom attack with her other handon Mamoru and the senshi, pinning them to the wall and gate. She finally swung the clamp forward with force. Before Usagi could feel the excrutiating pain of her starseed being ripped from her body again, nothing came. Instead, Aurora had protected the princess, the clamp crushing her broach at her chest, and entering her body. Sailor Cherry Blossom tugged the clamp back, a brillant gold starseed in its claw.
"Aurora-san!" everyone screamed.
"Kuso!" Sailor Cherry Blossom cursed at her misfortune.
"I came just in time," a giggle filled the air.
"Ack!" Cherry Blossom screeched as Mimic appeared next to her.
On the ground, Aurora's body sparkled gold, her form getting smaller. At one point, a cat's body replaced her humanly figure. At the final stage, her body completely disappeared.
"You were right," Mimic let her head tilt to the side childlishly, "She was just a stupid cat."
"Star Serious Laser!"
A bright, white light came crashing towards the two of them, causing them to seperate. Sailor Cherry Blossom growled, "How many senshi are there?"
Usagi's teary eyes brighten at the sight of four figures jumped closer. One of them stepped closer, pointing an item forward, "Under therule of Nyu-Kinmoku-sei, you two are under arrest for the murder of Higher Order Star Senshi, Sailor Star Gazer."
Usagi whispered, "Seiya."
The leather-clad figure came closer, becoming visible. Sailor Star Fighter stood with her new star yell held forward.
Mimic laughed, "Gomen!"
She backs up, "I have other things to tend to!"
The black bat, the golden starseed, and the pink animamate vanished in their usual styles.
"Hmp!" the shortest of the four, Sailor Star Healer, stepped forward, crossing her arms, "They got away again."
"Don't worry, Healer," the taller, known as Sailor Star Maker, reassured, "We will get them eventually."
A new starlight, slightly taller than Healer, squeeled, "That was fun!"
"Sailor Starlights!" the senshi gasped from their pinned positions.
Healer, Maker and Fighter smiled. The new blonde-haired starlight blinked in question, "Who are they?"
Tiny arms were thrown around raven-haired starlight'sneck, the force almost tipping her off her balance. Familiar blonde buns filled her vision as she looked down at the small woman. She smiled warmly, gazing at her with much love in her deep blue eyes, "It's greet to see you, too, Odango."
As if newfound energy surged through Usagi, she had leaped up and attached herself to the taller woman in black leather. Mamoru couldn't help but to smile at the scene. His Usako was truly happy now.
"Welcome back to Earth, Sailor Starlights," Luna greeted them formally, yet couldn't stop the twinkle in her eyes as Healer winked at her. Artemis sighed again, depressingly.
"Oi!" an angry fire senshi yelled, pinned at the gate, "You are forgetting about us!"
Snore!
They sweatdropped. Artemis sighed depressingly. (giggle)
The screen fades to white and the credits roll. . .
