The bathroom candles flickered, shimmering against the pale blue walls and the small dolphins that lined the bathtub. The dolphins reminded her of the clear waters on the planet Mercury and pressed her childhood memories back into her mind.
Jessica-Rei stared at her naïve reflection, releasing a lone tear as her forehead began to itch.
She itched it madly and noticed the pink light shine through her fingers. Her hands slowly dropped to her sides as she saw the symbol of Peace and bowed her head in reverence to her mother.
Raising her head at the sound of a new voice, she rushed and opened the door.
"Noelle, who are you talking to?"
Noelle looked at her Queen then to the voice emitting from the shadows.
"I have come to give you your true powers my Princess." Sailor Pluto spoke in a calm voice as she emerged from the shadows and knelt on one knee.
"Until your mother is recovered, I pledge my services."
Jessica-Rei looked down at Sailor Pluto then at Noelle.
"You must be mistaken Pluto, my mother is dead. We lost contact as soon as she arrived at the Moon."
Sailor Pluto got to her feet. She looked seriously at Jessica-Rei with her dark cherry eyes.
"Do you forget child that I stand at the Gates of Time? I have seen things and I have come to warn you. Your mother and your aunt are held captive on the Moon."
Noelle gasped and dropped the henshin in shock. It rolled to Jessica-Rei's feet as if her power was drawing it near.
Sailor Pluto looked at the Princess expectantly and the henshin flew into Jessica-Rei's hand.
"It's time to accept your duty Princess. As a scout you can help defend against the oncoming battle. Do it quick child!" Noelle motioned at the Princess urgently, sensing the dark power in the air.
"Peace Prism Power!" Jessica-Rei held her henshin up and a blue star encircled the young girl.
A loud explosion echoed outside as Sailor Chibi-Peace stumbled against Noelle. The princess's sailor scout uniform had pink bows, glove bands and choker. Her collar, skirt, locket and ankle boots were blue. The pool of brown hair became a tidy braid.
"Come quick Princess, there are dark forces attacking the castle!"
Sailor Pluto shouted as she ran into the corridor, brandishing her garnet orb defensively as Sailor Chibi-Peace followed.
Noelle rushed to the window and saw a young man attacking with his henchmen.
"Diamond you traitor."
Out in the courtyard Sailor Chibi-Peace and Sailor Pluto joined the other Outer Scouts in a line. Each held their weapon protectively and waited for Diamond's next move.
"Where are the necklaces? Hand them over Sailor Trash!"
Diamond levitated high in the air, his henchmen below him.
"I will die before I tell you. Peace Sceptre Punish!" Sailor Chibi-Peace aimed her staff at Diamond and shot golden energy balls as he dodged.
She sent a telepathic message to the other scouts.
"I'll handle Diamond, you take care of the henchmen."
Before the scouts could argue, Sailor Chibi-Peace ran towards Diamond spinning her staff furiously.
"I will kill you before you take my kingdom. In the name of the Moon, I will defend my throne!"
Diamond cackled at the foolish girl and formed a black energy ball in his hand. He threw it hard as Sailor Chibi-Peace batted it back towards him. He fell to the ground in agony as the energy ball spread through his body.
Chibi-Peace abruptly fell as the other scouts caught up with her. Behind them laid a path of destruction.
"Submarine Reflection!" Neptune held her mirror up at Diamond and saw how weak he is.
"If we all attack together we can destroy him." Sailor Uranus cracked her knuckles furiously looking at his still form.
"If we kill him, Selenity would never forgive us. He has good in his soul." Chibi-Peace got to her feet with the aid of her staff and looked at the others.
"I will never be good!" Diamond shot to his feet and bombarded the scouts with energy balls.
"Silence Wall!" Sailor Saturn commanded her glaive to form a wall around them, taking the brunt of Diamond's attacks.
"Uranus, Pluto, I want you to attack Diamond until he is too weak to fight back. Neptune I want you to power Saturn's wall and I will think of a way to heal him." Chibi-Peace whispered quietly.
Sailor Uranus and Pluto saw a weak spot in Saturn's shield and released their attacks.
"World Shaking!" Uranus's hand formed a ball of energy and hits the ground, sending the energy towards Diamond.
"Dead Scream!" SailorPluto aimed her garnet orb at Diamond and released a blast of energy.
Chibi-Peace watched as her surroundings stopped and a silvery ghost figure appeared.
"Selenity." She murmured and felt her staff transform into the Moon Crescent Wand.
"Use this wand wisely my niece."
Time flowed freely again as Selenity disappeared. The two attacks merged and hit Diamond with a loud explosion.
He cried out in pain as he fainted and Chibi-Peace ran to him.
"Where did she get the wand from?" Neptune asked Pluto and she smiled mysteriously.
Chibi-Peace sat and pulled Diamond onto her lap.
"Please don't die, oh Selene help me."
"Selenity…" Diamond mumbled quietly, looking at the girl.
"I can ease your pain Diamond, let me help you."
He coughed, his eyes closing weakly. "Heal me Selenity…"
Chibi-Peace smiled reassuringly and held the wand over him. "Peace Healing Activation."
Gold dust cover Diamond's body as his face smiled and became one with the wind.
"Thank you Sailor Chibi-Peace." He whispered into the wind as the other scouts stood around her.
"Your mother would be proud." Sailor Pluto told her as she helped her up.
"What happened to your wand?" Sailor Saturn asked as Chibi-Peace lent on her staff.
"Let's just say it was a special favour from our Queen herself."
Noelle ran from the palace and skidded to a halt at Chibi-Peace's feet.
"We need to go to the Moon. Your family is in grave danger."
Chibi-Peace nodded and held Noelle's hand.
"Pluto, Saturn, Neptune, Uranus. I urge that you stay here and help protect my kingdom. If you are needed I will contact you."
They agreed and watched as their Princess teleported with Noelle to the Moon Kingdom. A gust of wind swirled around them as they looked at the Moon.
"We wish you good luck my Princess." Sailor Pluto whispered, as the Moon grew darker.
