In the bookstore where Cleo got her books, the two people appeared. They looked around and flipped through a few books.
"Humans gain their knowledge from learning and reading. They use a lot of energy to study and read, concentrating on the words they read." The girl said, the boy smiled as he took out a black flower and placed it on one of the books. They watched as the flower was absorbed into the book and it glowed. They laughed briefly before vanishing into the night.
Justin went with Michiru into the outer senshi apartment. Upon seeing the king, Setsuna bowed.
"There is no need for that here; I am not king on Earth." Justin said as he looked around for Cleo.
"She is finally asleep. I had to give her a tablet to help her relax. She should be okay in the morning." Setsuna said as she stood up. Justin nodded at the senshi. "By your leave, your highness, I have been away from my post for too long. I wanted to make sure that the queen is going to be okay." She said and Justin nodded.
"Arigato for everything Setsuna-chan." He said and she nodded as she transformed into Sailor Pluto and left them alone. Justin sat down on the sofa and looked at Haruka who was getting a drink.
"Water?" she asked Justin.
"Something stronger this time I think my friend." He replied as Haruka nodded and grabbed a can of beer that they had for Justin when he came around. He thanked her and opened the can and drank from it.
"We think that the enemy is going to revel itself soon. The intensity of Cleo's nightmares and also her transformation by mistake has to signalize their presence here on Earth." Haruka said to them, they nodded in agreement. Justin went inside the room to check on Cleo. He knew that she would not wake up until tomorrow, and he wanted to be by her side when she did. He lay down next to her, stroking her hair as she slept. He pulled the blanket around her as he closed his eyes and allowed sleep to overtake him, wrapping one arm around Cleo. Michiru went into the room and saw Justin asleep. She took the blanket from the living room and put it over him and closed the door, leaving it ajar in case they needed anything.
Cleo woke up the next morning and felt a person next to her. She opened her eyes and turned to see Justin asleep by her side. Tears welled in her eyes as she thought about the fear she had caused him by transforming. She laid her head on his chest and listened to his heartbeat. Justin stirred as he felt her presence. He wrapped his arm around her and hugged her.
"I'm sorry for causing so much worry and pain among the senshi." She sobbed.
"Worry, yes, pain, never Cleo. They are here to protect you from that and you would never hurt them." He said as he stroked her hair.
"They told me what happened last night, I could not remember transforming, and I panicked. What if this happens more?" she said as she looked up at Justin.
"It won't and if it does, so what. We will take care of it when it happens. Now, would you like to go out for breakfast?" he said as she sat up, causing her to move, she nodded as Justin reached out and dried her tears. She put her arms around his neck and kissed him so passionately that it caused him to moan. She pulled away as she looked into his eyes.
"Too long since we kissed like that." He said and she smiled, nodding in agreement. Justin picked Cleo up as the two went outside and looked around.
"Where are they?" Cleo asked.
"Haruka has lessons and Michiru is talking to the other senshi about where you were last night so that they don't freak out." He said as he put Cleo's shoes on, not letting her stand as well as slipping into his own. He opened the door and they went into the lift where Cleo kissed Justin just like before. The lift door opened and Justin walked out.
"Are you going to put me down?" Cleo asked as they went outside.
"Not until we are at the diner with you eating pancakes and drinking juice!" he said, Cleo laughed as she let him carry her all the way to the diner.
The senshi looked at Michiru as she told them about last nights events.
"How is she?" Minako asked.
"Shocked, scared and fearing us more than anything. We need to show her that she can open up to us, and that she does not have to do everything alone like she had to in the past. We forget that she is a child, has never had much fun. She accepted being princess regardless of her fears and worries. She did the same when she turned 16 and became queen, accepting her duty and doing what she thought was and is right. We need to take her somewhere tomorrow, here is my plan…" Michiru said as she continued to talk to the senshi about her idea to help Cleo out.
Cleo smiled as she looked at the pancakes that Justin had ordered for her. She began to eat like she hadn't eaten in several days. Justin laughed at his fiancée as she sat back to the empty plate.
"More?" he asked, she shook her head.
"I have to fit in my cheerleader outfit this evening!" she said as she took her glass and drank from it, Justin smiled glad that she had no lessons today and neither did he. Once they finished, they walked hand in hand along the river, watching the water flow by and seeing people reading. Cleo looked at the people; they were all reading the same book.
"This can not be a coincidence!" she said as each person turned the page at the same time. They walked on and saw one person pass out, the book glowed and turned into a monster.
"No way!" Cleo said as other people began to pass out and the books falling to the ground. Cleo grabbed her brooch, but Justin stopped her.
"It is too open to transform. Go over there!" he said as he pointed to a tunnel in a bridge. Cleo nodded and ran as Justin went over and checked on the people, he noticed that they were weak. He flipped up his watch and pressed the orange gem, knowing that they would all be together.
"We have a problem, riverside right now!" he said into his watch as his head began to hurt. He saw Cleo as Sailor Stardust run out towards the monster. He hid behind a tree as he allowed his transformation to take place.
"Hold it! Absorbing people's energy while they enjoy reading a good book to relax is unforgivable. In the name of the stars that shine above us, I will punish you!" Cleo said, the monster laughed.
"Try this on for size, page turning!" the monster said as pages flew at Stardust, she back flipped out of the way as she saw each of them wedge themselves into the ground. She reached out her hand as her staff appeared. "No you don't! Words spraying!" as letters hit Stardust's hand, making her drop her staff and hit her in the chest. She fell back from the impact of the attack as she hit the floor and then shot back further. The monster came closer to her. "Farewell." It said; Cleo covered her eyes as it prepared to kill her.
"Sparkling wide pressure!" a voice said, the monster screamed out in pain.
"The Sailor senshi have arrived!"
"As well as the outer senshi, Sailor Uranus acts with grace."
"Likewise, Sailor Neptune acts with elegance." The two outer senshi said.
"World shaking!" Uranus said as her attack hit the monster as Mars went and picked up Sailor Stardust away from the monster.
"Deep Submerge!" Neptune said as the monster stumbled back from the attack. Mars put Stardust down on the grass as the Silver Soldier appeared at Stardust's side, with her staff in hand. He threw a rose at the monster while Mars added her attack making the monster not move.
"Now is the time Sailor Stardust!" Venus said to her, Stardust stood up and nodded. She felt the light engulf her as the stars gathered. She paused and looked at the monster.
"Stardust healing escalation!" Cleo said as the monster refreshed and turned back into a book. Cleo looked at the senshi who ran towards her.
"You were not going to give up were you?" Mercury asked and Cleo shook her head.
"I was weak, it hurt me and I could not find the strength to get up, arigato all of you for saving me." She said as the Silver Soldier stood by her side.
"So, the enemy has finally decided to appear." Neptune said and Cleo nodded. "Now to find out what and who we are dealing with." She said, she looked around and people began to wake up. The Silver Soldier had disappeared and the senshi walked off as someone grabbed Stardust's arm. She turned and came face to face with Tariq. The senshi stopped walking when they realized that Stardust was no longer there.
"Thank you Sailor Stardust." Tariq said to her, Stardust smiled as Uranus approached. Tariq let go of Stardust's arm when he saw the look Neptune was giving him. Neptune put her arm around Stardust and the pair walked off with the rest of the senshi.
The day continued as if nothing happened for everyone, except the Sailor senshi. Cleo tried to block the attack out of her head as she went to cheerleading practice. She had fun and waited for Justin to pick her up, the senshi had decided to take her out tonight. After a few phone calls, Justin had managed to get them rooms in a hotel near where they were going to surprise her. Justin wrapped his arm around the new cheerleader. Cleo smiled as she stood up and kissed him. Justin pulled her closer and deepened the kiss, making Cleo to let out a small moan. He pulled away as he stroked her cheek.
"So, we have a plan." he said as he went over to the mini bus that they had rented. Cleo saw all of the senshi as well as the two outer in the bus. Cleo walked over to them as they opened the door.
"Come on Cleo, we are off for a fun filled weekend!" Ami said to her.
"And don't worry, I packed the books you need for your class on Monday to read and also the clothes for the weekend." she continued as Cleo went up to her.
"Looking nice first of all cheer girl!" Haruka said; this caused Cleo to blush.
"Get in Cleo; we need to make a pit stop before we go to the hotel!" Justin said as he patted her on the bum, causing her to blush even more. She went in the back and sat next to Minako who had Shadow and Sunspot with her.
"Right, everyone buckle up!" Justin said, Haruka sighed.
"I want to drive!" she pouted. Justin smiled.
"No way, not with the precious cargo we have in here!" Justin said as he started the engine, winking at Cleo as she for the third time blushed.
"Look at that, Sailor Stardust has color in her cheeks!" Rei said, causing everyone to laugh. Justin drove off as Cleo grabbed a book from her bag and began to read. When they stopped, Cleo looked outside and saw where she was; she smiled as she undid her seat belt and ran outside to where her brother was waiting.
"Craig!" she screamed as she ran into her brother and he hugged her.
"Cleo, the senshi contacted me and told me their plan, so I decided to tag along since I have not heard from my little sister in a week!" he said as he grabbed his bag and went in the front with Justin. Cleo climbed back into the bus and Justin drove off.
"So where are we going?" Cleo asked after they had been on the road for a few hours.
"Well, if we told you that, then it would not be a surprise!" Rei said to her friend. Cleo stuck her tongue out as she went back to reading.
"Okay, different question, how long until we get there?" she asked.
"An hour." Justin said and Cleo nodded not looking up from her book. When they arrived, Cleo saw the hotel coming into view. She was amazed at the size of it.
"Oh my god, are we staying there?" she asked, Makoto nodded.
"Justin was able to get us rooms." Makoto said. "We unpack and sleep and then tomorrow, your surprise continues!" she continued as Justin parked the bus and everyone grabbed their bags and went out. They went into the reception and Cleo looked at the elegance of the room. Justin went up to the desk and picked up the keys as Cleo walked up to join him, getting looks from the guests as she was in her cheerleading uniform.
"Justin, feeling uncomfortable." she said as he took the keys. He smiled as he put his arm around Cleo.
"Right, Haruka and Michiru here is your room key. Ami and Rei, yours, Minako and Makoto your key, and Craig here is yours." he said as he handed out the card keys. "We are all on the same floor so that was lucky!" he said as they went over to the lift. "Minako, can the cats stay in your room?" he asked, she nodded. Once the lift opened to their floor, each said their goodbyes and went into their rooms.
"Justin, where am I staying?" she asked.
"With me, of course." he said as he smiled, causing Cleo to blush. He took her to their door and opened it. Cleo looked in amazement at the size of the room. "I booked us the penthouse room." he said as they walked in. Cleo looked at the living room and then went into the bedroom and saw the bed, causing her to blush even more. Justin put his arm around her. "Cleo, I just want to spend a few nights with you by my side." he said, she smiled as she kissed him and wrapped her arms around his neck, pulling him closer. Justin bent down and picked her up as she opened her mouth allowing him to deepen the kiss. He walked them over to the bed and put her down. He stroked her cheek and looked at her body. She blushed as she felt his gaze going up and down her.
"I love you more than anything in this world." he said to her as his hand rested on her waist. Cleo leaned up and kissed him hard on the lips, Justin moved closer to her and soon they were lying side by side. Justin felt Cleo shake as he put his hand under her top. Taking this as a sign that she did not want it, he removed it, causing Cleo to pull away.
"I thought that you didn't want that?" he said as she looked up at him. She smiled as she put his hand on her back and pulled him closer to her and kissed him.
After a half hour of exploring each other's upper body, Cleo pulled away, she was not sure that she wanted to go any further at the moment. She stood up, leaving Justin on the bed as she went into the other room to grab her bag. She heard a knock on her door and opened it to see her brother standing there.
"Craig, come in!" she said as she opened the door more allowing her brother entrance. "We were about to order room service." She continued as he looked around their room.
"I see Justin spared no expense!" he said as he sat down on the sofa.
"I heard that!" he yelled from the bedroom. Craig looked in the room and smiled as he saw his friend sitting on the bed. "Cleo said something about room service?" he asked as Craig walked into the room.
"Yes I did!" she yelled as she picked up the menu and went over to the boys. She sat on the bed between the two and smiled as they both chose something from the menu and she went to phone. Cleo then went into her bag and grabbed her pajamas and went to get changed while the boys began talking.
"How has she been?" Craig asked.
"Not so good, you should ask Haruka-chan, it seems that she had a run in with one of her class mates from political studies but handled it surprisingly well." Justin said as he looked around. "Today however an enemy appeared and it nearly killed her." He said as he lowered her voice, not wanting Cleo to hear him. "Without the Sailor senshi and the outer senshi, I am not sure what would have happened." He continued and Craig nodded. Justin heard a knock at the door and went to pick up the room service while Cleo came out of the bathroom changed out of her cheerleader uniform.
"So bro, what you been up to?" she asked as Justin brought in the food.
"Same as normal, so tell me about your first week of college?" he asked.
"Nothing much, obviously made the cheer squad so I don't need to worry about relying on my gymnastic scholarship. Oh and I met the head coach, Terry, he says hi by the way and he said I can use the gymnastic equipment whenever I want." She said as Justin sat beside her and she began to pick at the fruit.
"Lessons?" he asked.
"I have only had one; it went well except for an arrogant boy who I had to teach a lesson to." Cleo said as she ate a slice of pineapple, the conversation was for some reason making her uncomfortable, Craig noticed this change in his sister and stopped talking about it.
"Right, I am off, see you guys in the morning and behave!" Craig said as he grabbed a plate of food from the trolley, kissed Cleo on the forehead and went. Cleo stood up and looked out of the window and sighed, the memories from the battle returned. Justin came up and put his arms around her waist and kissed her neck.
"I could have died…" Cleo said as she let a tear fall. "I let that monster get the better of me, if it was not for the outer senshi and the other senshi…" she said, Justin held onto her tighter as he remembered seeing her knocked out with the monster close to her, not being able to do anything to get to her.
"I was too slow. I should have stopped him before he got so close to you." He said as he held her tighter, she looked up at him and smiled.
"It was not your fault, if anything it was mine. I should not have been so confident to take the monster on by myself. Now, I am sleepy and know that everyone will be banging on the door early tomorrow, so I am off to bed." She said as she kissed Justin on the lips. He pulled away and let her go to bed while he went and got changed. Justin went and got changed in the bathroom and once he curled into bed with Cleo, she was already asleep. He kissed her head and wrapped his arm around her and joined her in the land of dreams.
"Cleo, come on we want to go out!" she heard Minako knock on her bathroom door again. Cleo put up her hair as she had it when she transformed and looked for her transformation brooch in her knapsack. She saw it in the pocket and put it on. She unlocked the door and opened it. Minako took the scarf that she had hidden and covered Cleo's eyes.
"Hey!" she said as she was blindfolded. Minako took her hand and led her outside and to the car. Once she sat down, she could feel them moving.
"Can I not read my book?" she said as she tried to remove the blindfold, to get hit by Ami. "Ouch! That hurt Ami!" she said.
"How did you know that was me?" the senshi of water asked her.
"I can smell your perfume." She said; everyone laughed as Ami blushed. The car stopped and Cleo was let out once again. She felt someone untie her blindfold as she blinked and looked at where they were. She smiled as she looked up and saw the theme park. She took a few steps forward and then turned back to her friends, tears of happiness falling down her cheek.
"Arigato mina." She said as she wiped away her tears. Haruka came up to her and put her arm around her, Cleo hugged the outer senshi back.
"You deserve it your highness." She whispered in her ear. Cleo looked up and smiled, grabbing Haruka's hand, she pulled her as she began running towards the entrance, the others following behind them.
Cleo went on all the rides with her friends who wanted to go with her, she ate sweets and fast food and was like the child she was. Justin watched the huge change in Cleo as she began to speak more openly about things that had happened with the other senshi and began to relax around everyone. He stood back and kept his distance from her, allowing her to talk to the girls as much as she wanted. He was, of course with her when she wanted him. He mainly talked to Craig about the kingdom and also about planning the wedding and stuff, something he did not want to burden Cleo with at the moment. Night fell and Cleo began to yawn as she was picked up by Michiru. Justin went up to her and took Cleo out of her arms as she stirred by being moved. He put her in the seat next to him and drove them back to the hotel, tucking her into bed, all the time seeing the happy smile on her carefree face. He closed the door and went to Michiru and Haruka's room to talk to the outer senshi. Haruka opened the door to see Justin there.
"Come in, we were just watching TV." She said as she opened the door. Justin nodded in thanks and went into the room, taking a place on the chair that was free.
"Is Cleo okay?" Michiru asked.
"Yes, she is fine, she is sleeping. I just wanted to thank you both for the idea; I have never seen Cleo so happy before." He said and the girls nodded.
"It was great to finally see her open up to us and to begin to trust us more. I was amazed at how much difference a day could make. We should do this for her once a month." Michiru suggested and both of them nodded.
"Justin-chan, we need to discuss the silence that Cleo has been talking about in her dreams. You see, you have only met three of the four outer senshi. Sailor Saturn, she is a baby, but she is also known as the bringer of silence. If she was to be re-awoken by anyone but Cleo, she can be used as a very destructive weapon. For you see, Sailor Saturn has the power to bring death, to people, planets and even possibly solar systems." She explained. Justin listened to what his friend has said to him.
"Where is she?" he asked.
"That is the problem; her last reincarnation was taken from us before we could get to her. As far as we can tell, she has not woken her power and is still a baby, maybe even a child now." Haruka explained. "We don't know where she is, or how she even looks!" he continued, Justin sighed.
"This poses a problem, if indeed what you fear that happen may come true, then there is no way that Cleo will kill a Sailor senshi." He said as he paced the room, trying to think of a way through this. "What does your mirror say?" he asked as he looked at Michiru.
"The same images, the planet being destroyed, people being killed by the great silence." She said as she looked into her mirror.
"Cleo is aware of this?" he asked them, they shrugged.
"Satsuma-chan seems to think that Cleo can see this as the outcome and has already submitted defeat. After seeing her battle the monster yesterday, I was beginning to think that she had really given up on everything. Then seeing her today and finally opening up to us made me wonder what happened yesterday that made her want to be killed…" Haruka said to them.
"She did not want that, she had lost her staff and the monster had just attacked her hard, I was surprised that she was able to withstand such a strong attack. Unlike the senshi, she can not control anything without her staff." Justin said.
"Then maybe it is time that she learnt about her hidden powers." Michiru said to Haruka, who nodded in agreement. They smiled at each other as Justin continued to look confused.
"Trust us with this one, we will show her something that she thought she could never do, and to be honest I am surprised that she hasn't done it before."
"If you mean the force field, she did that once to stop me from going after her, I am really surprised that she could not do it again." He said; the senshi looked at each other.
"When she was a princess?" Haruka asked and Justin nodded. "She lost the ability already?" Haruka asked Michiru, she shrugged.
"Cleo has been blocking a lot of power because she is too scared to hurt anyone close to her, she will find it in time for protecting people, but she will willingly die herself to be able to not cause any pain to other people." She said.
"How would her dying from the monster protect anyone?" Haruka asked.
"Cleo is confused, she just wanted it all to be over, you remember what she said today about when her parents died and she just wanted to join them? After all that she had been through the previous day, I bet she was feeling the same and didn't care anymore." Michiru said, at this the room fell silent.
Cleo awoke to see that she was alone and still dressed. She wanted to go and look at the stars, and knew no better place than with the senshi of time. She grabbed the key that she had been keeping around her neck and held it up to the sky.
"I call upon you, Sailor Pluto, guardian of time. Grant me safe access so that I can speak to you!" she said, the key glowed a deep red color and the light engulfed Cleo as she vanished. Cleo stepped forward and looked at Satsuma who smiled at her arrival.
"Cleo-chan, what brings you here?" she asked the girl.
"Setsuna-chan, I have been feeling a strange presence on Earth since I started college. Can you tell me if there have been any… strange things happening in the time lines?" Cleo asked as she sat down in front of the senshi. Satsuma closed her eyes and felt around. After a while, she opened her eyes and shook her head.
"Whatever you may be feeling Cleo-chan must be something that is bound to happen. Now, I know that you did not come up here just to tell me that, what you are here for?" she said as she sat down next to her.
"Tell me about the stars and their histories, how they came to be." She said as she looked up to the sky. Setsuna smiled.
"With pleasure your highness, you see that one…" and she began to talk about each star and the signs and how they came to be.
Michiru smiled as she felt the time key being used.
"Cleo has made a trip shall we say to see Sailor Pluto, so she will not be in the room when you return." She said to Justin who nodded.
"How am I going to be able to spend time with her if she keeps vanishing?" he asked, the girls laughed.
"She feels guilty about leaving Sailor Pluto all there by herself. She is helping a friend by visiting her and also herself, trust me she needs this." Haruka said to Justin. He nodded. "If you feel lonely tonight your highness, can we use your room and the movie channel, we can get the whole senshi there and have a small party!" to this suggestion Justin laughed.
"Thank you for the offer, but a room full of hyper young women is not my idea of fun. I am used to sleeping by myself. Thank you both for your council. I bide you both goodnight." He said as he stood up and walked out of the room, the two senshi bowed as he left.
Setsuna was telling Cleo about the last few constellations in the Earth's solar system as the young girl fell asleep.
"Goodnight my queen. May your dreams here be uneventful." The senshi said as she stroked her hair.
Morning came and Cleo was still not back. Justin had a shower and got dressed; he was starting to get worried. The rest of the senshi and Craig came into the room and they all headed down for breakfast, in the hope that Cleo would be back once they had finished.
Cleo woke up from the best sleep she had in ages. She looked up to see the smiling face of Setsuna.
"Gomen Sailor Pluto, for falling asleep. But you have helped me more last night than any text book ever would. I better go back before people worry, but I will be back in a week to catch up with you." Cleo said as she stood up and hugged the senshi one last time before vanishing back to Earth. She saw the room was empty and looking at the time, she assumed everyone was having breakfast. She went and had shower, got changed and finished packing as she then went downstairs to find everyone. She was putting her wet hair up using a clip she had in her mouth as she looked around for the senshi and her brother. She saw Ami's blue hair and she smiled as she walked over to them.
"Sorry about being late. I had a sleep over somewhere else." She said as she approached them, they all smiled and understood what she meant and she sat down next to Justin who squeezed her leg under the table. "So what is the plan for today?" she asked, the senshi smiled at her, she looked worried. "No, not blindfolding me again!" she said as Justin pinned her hands behind her back and Rei came up and blindfolded her. "Great, now how am I supposed to eat breakfast?" she said, Justin picked her up and they moved.
"You were late, therefore you forfeit your breakfast, but I will get you something when we get to our new location, now be quiet and allow the talk of your friend's sooth you!" he said as he strapped her in the back of the mini bus. Cleo felt some sit beside her and she smelt the air.
"Rei-chan, so nice of you to baby sit me!" she said as Rei put her seatbelt on.
"Don't you even think about trying to take the blindfold off, remember I hit harder than Ami-chan!" she said.
"Hey, I resent that!" Ami said, causing Cleo to laugh.
"Gomen Ami-chan, I didn't mean it like that!" Rei said as the bus began to move.
Cleo listened to the different conversations that were taking place, before someone said a question out loud that caught Cleo's attention.
"So Justin-chan, when is the wedding going to be for you two?" Cleo turned to the voice and if she hadn't had her blindfold on, she would have given Minako a look that could have killed.
"Minako-chan, do you really think I make a date without talking about it to my future queen?" he asked, thankful that Cleo could not see him blush. He had indeed been talking about it with Craig since he was Cleo's advisor and brother, but not with anyone else.
"Come on, you can not keep the senshi of love out of this one, I know when you are lying!" she said, this made Cleo's head turn.
"Using Empath is cheating." He said and she shrugged.
"What is the point of having abilities if I can not use it?" she asked, Cleo would give anything to be invisible right now. The bus stopped and Cleo let out a sigh of relieve as Rei helped her get out.
"Rei-chan, what was Minako-chan talking about?" Cleo whispered in her ear.
"Justin is concerned about you and doesn't want you to worry about the wedding plans." She whispered back before the rest of the senshi gathered around Cleo. She smiled.
"Whoever takes of my blindfold is more than likely going to get a punch for doing it Justin!" she said, he gulped, knowing that he was in trouble. He reached out and removed the blindfold as Cleo looked at the building in front of her. She smiled somewhere she always wanted to be. She turned and looked at Justin as he pulled out tickets, her eyes got brighter as he nodded.
"One for each of you girls." He said; they looked at Cleo confused.
"Oh my god, sea world and we get to swim with the dolphins!" she said as she ran up to Justin and hugged him. She took a ticket from his hand, then turned back to the building and laughing, she ran in, leaving everyone behind.
"How did you get tickets to do that?" Ami asked.
"I know the trainer." He said as each senshi took a ticket and chased after an excited Cleo.
"Yep, you are not even married to my sister yet and I can see that she has you wrapped around her little finger." Craig said as the two walked inside, showing their tickets.
"She deserves everything I can give her and more." He said as they looked around admiring the fist in the tanks.
"I know that you will be able to give her everything she wants, I mean she is queen of her own kingdom and yet she is still the same down to earth Cleo who has not let the power take over her or make her change. For this I am very grateful and with you by her side, the kingdoms will prosper beyond anyone's dreams." Craig said as they stopped in front of the tanks.
"I am glad that you think that too Craig, I know that you are not from my kingdom, however I want you to be my personal advisor. I need your help to run this kingdom here on Earth and also to keep an eye on your sister as she runs the star kingdom. I know that I am not king here at the moment, but it would mean a lot to me if you took this place. Of course, Cleo's council comes first." Justin said as he turned to his friend. "You have done so much for me in my time of need here when I was not sure who I was, taking me into your home and I can never pay you back for anything." Justin continued; Craig nodded at his friend.
"Seeing both you and Cleo happy is all the reward I need. However, I will be honored and want to accept the place on your council." He said as he nodded his head to Justin. The two fell into a comfortable silence as they continued looking around.
Cleo and the other senshi had a great time in sea world and loved swimming with the dolphins. Once back in the mini bus, Justin let Haruka drive so that he could sit next to Cleo.
"Did you have a nice weekend?" he asked her, she nodded as she put her head on his shoulder.
"Thank you, for everything." She said to him, he stroked her cheek.
"Mina, arigato for taking me out this weekend, it has really helped me out and gomen for the past few weeks and months where I have been blocking you all out." She said, the senshi looked at her and smiled.
"Cleo-chan, we are just glad that we finally got you to understand that no matter what, you can trust us with anything and we will always be there to help you the best we can." Makoto said and the others nodded in agreement. Tears began to fill Cleo's eyes; she never knew that she could have so many friends and people who loved her. She closed her eyes as she rested on Justin's shoulder and fell asleep, feeling the love radiating from all of her friends.
The pair came back down to Earth, they were looking for something.
"How will we know that we have found the great power?" the girl asked.
"Don't worry, it will show itself to us in due time. Ellie, please pick a flower that will help us drain the energy from the people who participate in this play." The boy said, the girl let out a giggle as she went over and selected an orange flower. The boy smiled at her choice and picked it, putting it on the floor. The pair watched as the flower was absorbed into the stage and they left.
