Yay!! I'm done with Track and Field! In a few weeks, school will be over as well, so there will be a LOT more updates over the summer. I juss hope the heat won't kill me. Lol. So, here's the last episode for S!! Once again, the finale will be longer. I present episode #37!!
Episode: Mistress's Wrath
Everyone regrouped to the middle of the room. They stared pitifully at Sailor Uranus and Neptune.
Aoshi "All this time... Miss Tenoh...Miss Kaioh..."
Mars "They had the pure heart crystals within them since the beginning."
Sailor Galaxy clenched her fist. Uranus stayed still on the floor, apart from her heart crystal...or, should they say, the Space Sword.
Galaxy "I never got a chance for a rematch...Amara won in the end!"
She glared teary-eyed into the darkness. The red eyes sensed her anger.
Galaxy "Why do you want the pure heart crystals? Just who do you think you are!?"
"My daughter."
A figure next to the red eyes revealed itself. A man smiled sinisterly with white hair and an absolute zero smile. Light reflected off his spectacles, making his eyes enigmas.
Jupiter "You...daughter...?"
Man "Yes. Her body was used to store the greatest experiment I have ever made!"
The red eyes looked towards him.
"Why, Professor Tomoe, you extol me too much."
Professor "Nonsense. Nothing can be enough for you."
The professor glanced over at Sailor Uranus and Sailor Neptune.
Professor "Well, if it isn't Tenoh and Kaioh."
Tuxedo Mask glared menacingly.
Mask "You actually know them?"
Professor "Yes. These pitiful youngsters were students at my academy."
Venus "And you just leave them like this!?"
"Basically, the school was just a trap to lure in the pawns."
Sailor Galaxy glanced over at the red eyes. She could sense a nostalgic feeling from the darkness. Courage, pride, and bravery were mixed with anger, lust, and vanity.
Galaxy (A scout...?)
Professor Tomoe walked closer to the heart crystals.
Professor "They have no use for these anymore."
He reached out for the crystals. The team knew how precious they were to Amara and Michelle. Sailor Mercury and Sailor Mars sped up to stop him until...
"NO!!"
A beam shot out from the darkness and ran straight through Professor Tomoe's chest. It missed the team by a few inches, almost hitting Serena in the head. Tuxedo Mask and Sailor Venus pulled Mars and Mercury back to protect them.
Professor "Milady...w...why...!?"
"Don't dare touch my pure crystals. You'll stain them with your filthy hands."
The beam stopped and everything was silent. The team watched as the agitated professor fell to the ground. His heart crystal stayed in his place, glowing with little energy.
Galaxy "I guess you really are sick, huh?"
"ALL heart crystals belong to me! No one else is allowed to have them."
Two hands slowly came out of the darkness. They were slender, yet the nails were long and sharp like a feline.
The team prepared for any attack she could use.
Jupiter (This is it!)
Mercury (We have to stop what ever she does!)
Venus (What is she!?)
Suddenly, the talismans floated closer to the darkness. They knew what was happening.
Mars "She's taking them!"
Mask "Stop her!"
"MARS CELESTIAL FIRE SURROUND!!"
"MERUCRY ICE BUBBLES FREEZE!!"
"SOLAR METEOR STRIKE!!"
The attacks led straight into the darkness. They waited for a cry of pain, but not a single sound was heard. "You're willing to go against ME!?"
Invisible energy waves were blasted at the team with an unknown origin. They fell back, almost tripping on Uranus and Neptune.
Sailor Mini Moon stood up and took out a mini wand with a pink heart.
"PINK SUGAR HEART ATTACK!!"
The others watched in dismay as the ineffective rays of hearts traveled into the darkness.
Serena "Uh...Mini Moon, that doesn't help."
Indeed, it didn't.
The hearts somehow reflected back and Sailor Mini Moon in the face. The young scout fell back with a little whimper. After a few seconds, she sat up, rubbing her aching nose.
Mini "Ouch! That hurt!"
The anonymity couldn't care less.
She blasted more energy waves at the team, causing them to suffer.
Venus "This isn't good!"
Mask "Aoshi! Get Uranus and Neptune out of here!"
Aoshi "Got it!"
Mercury "But we can't even move right now!"
"JUPITER THUNDER CRASH!!"
Luckily, Sailor Jupiter picked a right moment to strike. Summoned lightning bolts came down and collided with the dark figure. The waves of attacks stopped instantly. But they knew the waves would start up again.
"VENUS CRESCENT BEAM SMASH!!"
The second attack bought them some time. Aoshi ran up and hung Uranus and Neptune by his sides.
Galaxy "Mini Moon, go with them!"
Accompanied by Sailor Mini Moon, Aoshi ran to a nearby corner and waited there.
Sailor Galaxy faced the red eyes and glared.
Galaxy "I don't know who you are, but you're not taking the crystals!!"
"SOLAR RAZOR STARS FLASH!!"
Her bright stars illuminated the room. The darkness was cleared to reveal a lady that was about the same age as Kaori Knight. Black hair trailed down as she sat on it. Black pools replaced her eyes. The seductive dress reminded them of Emerald from the Black Moon Clan. A black star was embedded on her forehead.
Sailor Galaxy and Serena took a good guess at who she was.
Galaxy (Could this be...)
Serena (Mistress 9!?)
Serena glared angrily.
Serena "Professor Tomoe would use his own daughter to harbor an alien!?"
Mistress "He would have done anything to make my wish come true: to bring the Silence and destroy everything!!"
Mercury "No way! We won't let you!"
Mistress "Too late."
In the blink of an eye, the talismans moved closer to her hands. They couldn't stop the force drawing them nearer to the mistress: she was powerful.
The ground shook with an incredible tremor. The team had an arduous time keeping their balance.
Mars "Oh, no!"
Mask "We're done for!"
Sailor Galaxy struggled to stay up. She's only heard of this threat a few hours ago and already an apocalypse has begun. She looked around as the team used their strength to survive.
Mistress "I have the strongest force in the UNIVERSE!!"
"Not quite."
The mistress slowly stopped the tremors and the talismans' advancement. Her smirk faded as she stared beyond the team.
A young woman appeared in her early twenties. Her long black hair showed green streaks at the sides. She wore a teacher's uniform and had red eyes.
Mistress "Who are you?"
Woman "The one person that has the last key to your plan."
Everyone was confused. Uranus and Neptune had pure heart crystals...was there another one?
Serena "Do you know where it is?"
The woman walked up and placed her hand on Serena's shoulder. Her other hand was wrapped around an object.
Woman "My name is Trista Meioh."
She held up her hand and showed something to everyone. Their faces lit with joy. The silver crystal!
Trista "I'm also known as..."
Serena took the crystal.
Trista "Sailor Pluto."
Everyone stared wide-eyed at Trista. Sailor Pluto!? Sailor Pluto from the Time Gate!? The one that helped them travel to the future? To Aoshi? To Rini's home? Their suspicions were confirmed when Trista began her transformation.
"PLUTO STAR POWER!!"
Trista summoned the sands of time to form a circle around her. They created a wall, barring her from intruders. The sand washed over her from above and changed her teaching uniform into a sailor suit. The knee-high boots and skirt were pure black. A red button was pressed in her black bow. Her tiara appeared with a red jewel, similar to the orb on her staff. The staff was fashioned like a key, giving her the name "Guardian of Time".
Pluto "I am Sailor Pluto, protector of the planet, Pluto!"
Sailor Galaxy stared in amazement.
Galaxy (Sailor Pluto's here...to help us!)
Pluto "Sailor scouts, we need the talismans for the final stage. Mistress 9 is currently controlling them."
Mars "So what you're saying is..."
Jupiter "We gotta get them back!"
Venus "Hey, I'm up for a challenge."
Mercury "Don't worry. We'll handle everything."
Sailor Pluto nodded.
The team faced Mistress 9 with utmost confidence. The mistress sneered at their attempt to win.
Mistress "You'll all FAIL!!"
Her eyes glowed brightly. Mini portals opened in a row in front of her. The team waited for an attack.
Sailor Mars looked at the one before her. She waited for any type of element...but she didn't expect it to be her own.
Fire gushed out of the hole and aimed straight at Mars. Luckily, she ducked down in time, only having pieces of her hair crisped. Sailor Venus was the one with the next surprise.
Chains of hearts zoomed out of a hole in front of her and held Sailor Venus in place. She subconsciously struggled to break free, but a little tug broke the chain and it dropped to the ground.
Galaxy "Come on!"
Tuxedo Mask motioned Serena to stay behind. He ran ahead and faced the opposing black hole. Petals slowly drifted as roses shot out and almost scraped Tuxedo Mask. But he dodged them with ease.
Sailor Galaxy was concerned for everyone's safety, including Serena's. But her reactions switched to the black hole when stars blasted out like cannon balls. One was aimed at her face with perfect accuracy. She moved in time, but one star slashed at her cheek. A drop of blood came. Still, Sailor Galaxy charged to reach Mistress 9.
Sailor Jupiter looked carefully as the lightning bolts struck out at her. Her speed advocated her body to dodge them. She hated going against her own element.
What's really hard is going against gushes of water. Sailor Mercury kept falling back by the strong force. Out of all the elements, water seemed the hardest.
Mistress "None of you can reach me!"
Mask "Wanna bet!?"
The mistress watched as fire burned Mars, lightning struck Jupiter, water pushed Mercury, chains lashed at Venus, stars slashed Galaxy, and roses pricked Tuxedo Mask.
But they didn't give up. The team rushed through their trials and came closer to the black holes.
Sailor Pluto summoned the two talismans to come closer. Mistress 9 used her power to battle two fronts. They glared at each other to fight for the better power.
Galaxy wondered why Sailor Pluto didn't use all her power. But all guessing stopped when she reached Mistress 9. The team jumped up and unleashed their attacks.
"MARS FIREBIRD STRIKE!!"
"SHINE AQUA ILLUSION!!"
"JUPITER THUNDERCLAP ZAP!!"
"VENUS LOVE CHAIN ENCIRCLE!!"
"SOLAR METEOR STRIKE!!"
It was as if the entire solar system, along with roses, went against Mistress 9 all at once. She had no power to protect herself from their combined strength. Her power over the talismans disappeared. Sailor Pluto brought them closer and activated the Garnet Orb's power. Her tiara faded as the symbol of Pluto appeared on her forehead.
Aoshi and Sailor Mini Moon watched from afar while kneeling next to Uranus and Neptune. They noticed a glow on their foreheads and looked over.
Mini "What's going on, Sir Aoshi?"
Aoshi "Could it be the talismans..."
The symbols of Uranus and Neptune appeared and sparked energy within the bodies. Within a flash, they vanished before their very eyes.
Mini "Huh!?"
Uranus and Neptune appeared behind their talismans. Heart crystals materialized and dissolved into the two scouts. Their eyes flickered as they slowly lifted their heads.
Neptune "Heh...Who woulda thought?"
Uranus "We have to help Sailor Moon."
Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto held their talismans high in the air. The talismans glowed and casted a beam on each other. The lights formed a pyramid, almost blinding to the naked eye.
Pluto "There it is."
Serena looked up and saw another beautiful thing in the world.
Its design cajoled anyone to open it, although no one can. The forever-sealed object sprouted mini wings on the side. Its pedestal was as red as blood; intricate red designs covered the golden cup. On top, a crown was perched, accompanied by a crescent moon.
Pluto "The Purity Chalice."
Mistress 9's eyes glowed with interest.
Mistress "It's MINE!!"
Her hand reached out to summon the chalice. The first one to react was Serena.
She ran up past the Outer Senshi.
Neptune "Serena!"
Serena jumped up and extended her hand. Since she never got to see combat, wrapping her hand around the Purity Chalice was easy.
"MOON CRISIS POWER!!"
At those words, the Purity Chalice opened up to reveal pure light. It consumed Serena, giving her the original uniform for Sailor Moon. Except with upgrades.
The bow on her back expanded tenfold. Little wing-like clips were in front of the meatballs in her hair. Her skirt turned white with colorful layers on the bottom. Shoulder pads formed close to her extended gloves. Sailor Moon looked like a pure butterfly.
Galaxy "Sailor Moon!"
Mask "You're beautiful."
Mistress 9 could only see her as a threat.
Mistress "That power belongs to ME!!"
She casted harsh wind and negative energy upon Sailor Moon. The moon princess summoned her Spiral Heart Moon Rod to defend herself.
The scouts and Tuxedo Mask struggled to stay put and not fly back.
Mask "Sailor Moon!"
Mars "Be strong!"
Venus "You can do it!"
Mercury "We have to help!"
Galaxy "She needs our power!"
Jupiter "Lend her your strength!"
Neptune and Uranus nodded.
Neptune "We'll help."
Uranus "You can count on us!"
Aoshi and Mini Moon made a decision and nodded at each other.
Mini "Come on! Mommy needs us!"
Aoshi "Let's go!"
Protecting her from the wind, Aoshi aided Sailor Mini Moon to regroup with the others.
Pluto "Sailor Moon!"
She looked behind and saw Sailor Pluto's concerned eyes.
Pluto "Mistress 9 possesses a young girl. That girl needs to survive for the future! Please, only banish the Mistress!"
Sailor Moon didn't completely understand Pluto's motives. But she knew the Guardian of Time had the ability to make the right choices.
Moon "Right!"
Sailor Pluto smiled. But it was time to end it once and for all!
"PLUTO STAR POWER!!"
"NEPTUNE STAR POWER!!"
"URANUS STAR POWER!!"
"JUPITER STAR POWER!!"
"VENUS STAR POWER!!"
"MARS STAR POWER!!"
"MERCURY STAR POWER!!"
"SOLAR STAR POWER!!"
Aoshi and Sailor Mini Moon came in time. The little scout accompanied her fellow teammates.
"MINI PRISM POWER!!"
Streams of different colors were brought to the rod and combined. Sailor Moon could feel their energies make her stronger. The rod entered a golden glow and banished Mistress 9's power.
Mistress "What!?"
"MOON SPIRAL HEARTACHE REFORM!!!"
A golden stream of hearts flowed out of the rod and circled around the room, lost from its path. Sailor Moon willed to direct it straight at Mistress 9.
The evil mistress stared up into the air. She felt her heart not breaking, but being purified. Her growth began to shrink. Instead of going through an average life cycle, her body grew younger and younger by the second. From adultery to adolescence to childhood to infancy, Mistress 9 was no more. What was left in her place was a young baby with short black hair and purple eyes.
Aoshi "It's done."
Pluto "Don't worry about the girl. I arranged everything."
Everyone gathered around the baby as they sighed with relief. The earth was saved once again.
Life at the Fruit Parlor was average again...at least for now. Raye, Amy, Lita, and Mina were slurping individual smoothies while Darien and Serena shared one.
Lita "Not a heart snatcher in sight."
Mina "The Death Busters are gone."
Amy "And the Witches 5."
Raye "Kaori Knight's history."
Serena "No one's heart is lost."
Darien "Everything's restored."
Amy's happiness turned to concern.
Amy "I wonder what happened to Amara and Michelle."
Mina "And Sailor Pluto. Did she go back to the Time Gate?"
"No..."
Three figures came up. Amara, Michelle, and Trista appeared casually at last, even after the truth was known.
Trista "I'll be staying in this time."
Michelle "We apologize for all inconvenience we caused."
Amara "To make it up, we'll be around for a while. You know, team up?"
Serena nodded.
Serena "We'll be expecting you."
Amara, Trista, and Michelle nodded. As they turned to leave, Anna and Aoshi appeared from the Game Crown below. She had a small bandage covering up the scar she received from the star, but noticed when Amara and the others came up.
Anna "Hey."
Amara "Hey. Um...sorry about hurting you during our match."
Anna (shaking her head) "It's okay. Next time, it will be fair and square."
Amara nodded. The Outer Senshi walked past and down the stairs. Anna saw them off until Aoshi held her hand.
Aoshi "You'll win."
They were about to turn until Rini came up from behind.
Rini "Let's go! I'm hungry."
Anna "Right. This time..."
Anna squeezed her hand so she wouldn't let go of Aoshi.
Anna "Let's stay together."
Aoshi nodded.
The three of them rejoined the others with smiling faces. The world was at peace again; everything was normal. The royal court grew bigger with a new alliance. But not all was over yet. Serena still had to learn her newfound powers. And when she does, Serena Tsukino will truly be the greatest queen of Earth.
Whee! The first few episodes of the next season might suck, but bear with me!!
Next time on Sailor Galaxy Chronicles:
Chad "I'm sorry! It won't happen again!"
Raye "Would you quit it!?"
Chad "I wanna be someone better than I was before."
Mars "Chad!!"
Galaxy (Pegasus...?)
