Getting onto the bus to Hikawa Shrine, Mami sat herself in the back and placed her book bag on her lap. Taking a deep breath she nodded her head and gripped her bag 'So, time for some investigation into this Demon 6:00 p.m. Bus... once I get to Hikawa Shrine anyway.' relaxing herself, Mami leaned up against a window next to her and watched as the world outside drifted by. 'Maybe it's something to do with this crystal thing. Those guys with the Crystal Disc were certainly interested in collecting energy from people. Maybe that's what this bus thing is about.' Mami looked on to the front of the bus and saw that the entire bus was rather empty at this time. Looking back out the window she looked up to the sky and saw the sun slowly beginning its descent for the day.

After traveling for a few minutes Mami began to drift to sleep. Then she was awoken by the sound of an argument occurring next to her. Looking to her side, Mami saw the bun headed girl with a cat had apparently come on to the bus while she was drifting into sleep. ″If anything happens to us, it's your fault Luna! ″

″ It's all right. It's only 5:00 p.m. and if anything does happen, you can use the communicator to contact Ami.″ Mami raised an eyebrow as she watched the cat speak.

'So it does talk and... is that a crescent moon on her forehead?' While Mami was studying the cat the two met each others' gaze and the cat let out a troubled meow.

″Nya! Nya! ″ Luna began to flail about causing the bun-headed girl to tighten her hold on her.

″What's the matter Luna? You're acting really annoying. Just say what's the matter! ″ the bun headed girl glared at her cat and as she did she followed the cats gaze to Mami.

″Yes Luna. Talk some more.″ Mami smugly smirked and rested her chin in her hand.

″Ahhhh!″ The girl's shriek caused Mami to cover her ears, it was like a mini version of the screech attack that Sailor Moon used when Mami first met her. ″You again!

″Cut the shrill voice, all right? Bun-head, we meet up a lot, sheesh.″ Mami looked away and tried to think about the situation but found her thoughts flooded by the frantic questions of bun-headed girl.

″What are you doing here?!″

″I'm just taking the bus... from school.″ Mami rubbed the sides of her head and groaned.

″You mean you're a regular middle school student?!″ then under her breath she looked Mami up and down. ″Come to think of it you are wearing a school uniform.″

Frustrated, Mami took out her student I.D. and shoved it into the girl's face. ″No, I'm a full-fledged high-school student.″

″Mami Chiba... 2nd year... If you commute by bus, then you know the Demon 6:00 p.m. Bus? ″ The girl looked questioningly at Mami who looked thoughtfully away as she put her I.D. Away.

″Of course I know. It's on this very line right? There certainly have been a large number of strange incidents...″ Mami began to finally think over the situation as the girl had grown silent. 'The cat can talk... and this girl has a... close resemblance to this Sailor Moon I've been seeing... could she?' Mami looked over at the girl and saw her side profile. As she looked at the bun-headed girl, Mami felt her heart race. The resemblance was uncanny. ″Sailor Moon?″ The bun-headed girl let out a shriek at hearing this causing Mami to blush and look away. ″No-nothing!″ Mami looked up at the cord to the bus and pulled it.

As the bus came to halt, Mami ran down the street and didn't stop until the bus rolled off into the distance. Mami sighed and slumped her shoulders. ″Man... now I have to walk the rest of the way to Hikawa Shrine. Though...″ Mami looked around to make sure there was no one watching. Pulling out her pen she gripped it and hid behind a tree. ″Gives me a chance to transform just in case this is something big.″

Running down the street, Mami hurried to make it to the mysterious blank bus that arrives at 6:00 p.m. Upon reaching Hikawa Shrine, Mami began to sneak around the premises. As she got to a sign for the shrine she hid behind it and looked around the place. There was the bun-headed girl with her cat, and yet again the cat was speaking

″But remember Usagi! The ″Legendary Silver Crystal″ is something we must never allow to fall into the enemy hands!″

As she listened to this Mami quickly hid herself behind the sign again as Usagi looked back at her. Mami waited till the two walked away for her to leave from behind the sign. 'So they are looking for the crystal too. What for? Are we allies?' Mami crossed her arms and walked down to the street, by the bus stop. 'Whatever the case may be, I need to investigate this bus.' Soon after this assertion, Mami saw Usagi coming towards her and in a panic Mami hid behind the bench that was at by the bus stop.

″Usagi! That bus is strange! It has a flashing red light!″ The cat's voice rang into Mami's ears causing her to peek past the bench.

While Mami looked she saw Usagi give chase after the bus. 'I need to go with her!' Mami chased after the bus and as they got to a wall a dark portal appeared which the bus began to fade into. ″No! I can't let it get away!″ Mami was about to jump for it when a squirming cat was tossed to her.

″Take care of Luna!″ Usagi shouted as she began to disappear into the portal.

Mami stomped her feet and braced herself to jump into the portal. ″I have to come in too!″ Mami leapt and with the extra strength that she had with her Sailor form, she got through in time. As she did she felt a sharp pain rush through her head. Looking back over her shoulder she saw the male version of herself just standing there holding the cat. Looking back to her arms, Mami saw that she had the cat still. There was the sound of something shattering and the vision of her male self disappeared.
