OMG Guys! How long has it been? Like years? Let's be honest, I got writers block and totally lost interest in this story, but recently I got some inspiration. Before I start writing anything new, I found this chapter on my computer, I tweaked it a bit, I deided to go in a different direction from what I originally did with this chapter, hopefully I'll be able to keep writing this story as I just got a ton of new ideas.

Also I would like to take the oppurtunity to apologize for my past self (I was in 7th grade). My writing, although not terrible, really annoyed me as I was rereading this story. I got really annoyed at myself when I was talking about Haruka and Michiru's relationship and how they kept it a secret. I'm gonna stick with it since I've already wrote and I'm going to be embracing what my past self already wrote, but let me just tell you that I was in7th grade when I started this fic (as I've already stated) and I went to a Catholic school, obviously their type of relationship is looked down on, to me, it just seemed right for their relationship to be a secret, it made sense to me because of my upbringing, now, being in high school and a pansexual myself, I obvioulsy feel differently about the subject. But I'm gonna stop talking about the embarrassing things that 7th grade me did 5 years ago and get on with the story. It's short because I was just editing and will be writing more (I hope) soon. Also it's in Makoto's POV because originally she was gonna be the next target along with this chapter being longer and all that happening in this chap, but since I've changed my game plan slightly, that won't be happening yet, but I did decide to leave it in her POV.

Disclaimer: I do not own Sailor Moon, and it's good to be back!

Makoto's communicator rang. She answered to see Minako on the screen with Opal in the background.

"Okay, she's feeling much better and is ready to talk," Minako was explaining to them. "By the way her real name is Kohaku so call her by that and not Opal or Ayu which was the name she was going by." Makoto nodded.

Minako turned towards Kohaku. "You can tell your story now Kohaku. Don't worry we're here to help." Kohaku got up from her seat and walked over to the desk where Minako was sitting. There was chair there as well and she sat down. She looked very shy and scared. She looked completely different from the person she had been a few hours ago.

"Go ahead. Don't be shy," Minako was encouraging her. "Just tell them what you told me."

"Well," Kohaku started. "as you already know I am Sailor Opal. I was a Senshi long before the Silver Millennium fell. They were twelve of us and we were all best friends. We were known as the Gemstone Senshi. We lived on a far away planet called Kokou Hoseki. We had a lovely queen named Queen Karasu. She was as good as good could be. But one day, darkness fell over our castle and corrupted her soul, causing her to start war against other planets stronger and more experienced than us. Because she was our queen, we agreed to fight.

"She told us that if we trained hard enough and truly believed that we could win, we would. When battle started we were out there for less than ten minutes when a new darkness arrived by the name of Lady Bloodstone. She wiped out all the warriors, knocked our queen unconscious and snatched us and brought us back to her evil palace at the far reaches of the galaxy where she had us brain washed so that we would serve her. Then she hid us in darkness so she could corrupt us further.

" Somewhere in the process we got our heads back long enough to send our gem crystals to the future and lie themselves in our heirs so they could defeat Lady Bloodstone and return us to normal. When Lady Bloodstone felt that we were dark enough she found out about us sending our gem crystals away which made us not as strong as we usually would have been.

"Since we were completely under her control by this time her first decree was that we set out to search for the gem crystals. It took us a while to actually find the planet where the crystals had settled themselves. When we did, Lady Bloodstone had thought of a new plan. Once we had all obtained our gem crystals she would give us a super upgrade.

"So she started project Gemini which she believed would create the Galaxy Tier. A tier rumored to be the most powerful known to man, even stronger than Sailor Moon's. When Sailor Diamond brought back her diamond she began to work on the plan as well as Sailor Aquamarine. My Opal split in two so I was only half part of it, at least until I could obtain the second Opal. It was also the same for Sailor Aquamarine. Sailor Sapphire began the process but after Sailor Diamond succeeded she stepped down so she could plot to take her sapphire. One of our Senshi's crystals isn't even on Earth but it is in this galaxy. She was off to other planets trying to find her crystal. As far as I know, Sailor Topaz has succeeded so she is working on Project Gemini as well.

Stage one of Project Gemini was completed by Sapphire. She actually built the tier with powerful substances and magic. Stage two consists of the Senshi who have their gem crystals to add a little of the power and element into the tier. If Senshi come back unsuccessful, Lady Bloodstone locks them away until she believes they have the power to succeed. Then she uses her powers to take a good amount of whichever Senshi's energy she needs. She also wants us to be stronger as well.

Stage three happens when all the gemstones have been obtained, but can be done earlier if need be. Lady Bloodstone uses the tier to absorb the essence of stars and planets. The more essence she acquires, the more powerful she becomes. Her goal is to obtain the essence of the entire galaxy and rule the galaxy." Kohaku stopped and Minako took over.

"So basically this all leads up to Lady Bloodstone taking over the galaxy. Then she will want all the people of power dead and the Senshi not just frozen in time.

"Hold up," Hotaru said. "If she has the opal, can't she give it back to Setsuna-mama?"

"Yes," Minako interjected. "She has already kindly given me Setsuna's opal, which I will be holding onto until we go to the shrine tomorrow after school, and while we're there, we'll discuss what we're going to do about Sailor Aquamarine, since she is still around."

"What about Rei?" Usagi asked.

"Sailor Diamond has already gone back to Lady Bloodstone," Kohaku told her. "But I'm confident that we can get it back. No doubt she'll be sent back down her once Lady Bloodstone hears that she won't be getting any opals and hopefully any aquamarines. We'll deal with her then."

"Well, it's about nine pm. We should get to bed. School tomorrow," Minako said. Everyone said goodnight at the same time. Makoto closed her communicator and went to her room. As soon as she fell on her bed, she was asleep.

What did you think? I'm really excited to be back in the game, hopefully I'll have more to come very soon. Bye! And please review!
