The Battle Rages On

"The rest of you continue fighting," the oldest Princess of Mercury said. "I am going to perform a desperate act and take my little sister to a place of protection!"

"But Tec..." Princess Stella began.

"There are no two ways around it Stella," Princess Tecna said courageously. "Amy needs me right now!"

"Be safe and come back soon Tecna." Princess Roxy whispered as Princess Tecna disappeared from sight with the wounded Sailor Mercury.

"Icicle..." Icy began but she was rudely interrupted by Princess Layla & Sailor Pluto.

"I don't think so Icy," Princess Layla shouted with determination in her voice. "Power Gems!"

"And," Sailor Pluto shouted. "Pluto Deadly Scream!"

Over with Princess Tecna, she was leading Sailor Mercury who had reverted back to Princess Amy to a nearby cave to heal & rest.

While Princess Amy was recovering, Princess Tecna began singing a sweet song that she had written for her sister.

Princess Tecna: Don't be afraid;

I'll be right there;

An angel will keep you from sorrow;

A guardian angel;

Sworn to protect you;

So you're;

Not alone;

There'll always be a place where you can find me;

And it won't be long;

You'll wake up strong;

And night will give way to a better day;

Never be alone.

Princess Amy then opened her eyes to finally see her older sister's face staring back at her through the darkness.
