Betrayal of the heart
Chapter Thirteen: The trouble with Makoto
Makoto and Motoki were walking through the park, discussing the recent events.
"I feel like we were really able to make a difference in the battle against Beryl, but I feel so useless now. What if those guys show up again?" Makoto asked. Motoki stopped and turned Makoto to face him.
"Listen to me, you are not useless, ok. Your powers are gone for a reason, but you still have a purpose, you just have to find it" He said. Makoto sighed. As the two were talking, they ran into a woman, who was more dressed like a guy.
Elsewhere, Michiru was floating in a swimming pool, remembering a conversation she had with Haruka about how they must find the talismans, even if it meant sacrificing the owner of the Pure Heart Crystal in which they were found. They know the Silence is coming and must prevent it at all costs. Michiru climbed out of the pool and called Haruka on their communicators.
"The seas are in an uproar, Haruka, I can feel it" She said softly. Haruka, who standing near the couple she had just run into nodded.
"I agree" She said. "I can feel a strange presence, and it's moving. We must hurry" She turned to her new aquaintances. "It was very nice to meet you" She said. "I hope we can chat again sometime"
Makoto and Motoki nod and watch the woman walk away.
"She seems friendly" Motoki said. The couple continued walking, when suddenly Makoto's scarf flew away. She ran after it, but it landed under a car. As Makoto reached for it, a Daimon Egg merged with the scarf, and as soon as Makoto touched it the scarf turned into the Daimon Scar. Makoto screamed and Motoki tried to help her, but was knocked unconcious.
Usagi, Rei, Minako, Ami and Demando arrived on the scene, having been called by Motoki before he had jumped into the fight.
"Usagi, get out of here. There's nothing you can do!" Demando shouted.
"I'm not leaving you" She said.
Usagi and Demando joined hands. Scar jumped at them, but was thrown back as purple light was emitted in all directions. An illusion of the Moon Castle surrounded the pair as their clothes changed to those of Princess Serenity and Prince Dimande, respectively. A new rod appeared between them, floating in the air. Usagi was awed by the legendary rod and grasped it in her hands. A light exploded from the rod and surrounded the girls. Each one stared in shock as a small stick appeared before each of them, each one the color of thier planet with a star at the tip and the planet symbol in the middle of the star. Usagi was transformed into Princess Sailor Moon, but this time she was not possessed by her past life.
"Scar, retreat" Kaolinite barked. She and the Daimon disappeared before Princess Sailor Moon could destroy it.
Sailor Uranus and Sailor Neptune watched from atop a building nearby.
"Should we tell them what we're doing?" Neptune asked softly. "We should fight with them, for the Princess" Uranus shook her head.
"The silence is coming, Neptune. They wouldn't be able to sacrifice anyone. We need to stick close to that woman, the enemy will attack her again, I am sure of it"
The attack came unexpectedly, while Makoto was walking through the park, unaware that Haruka and Michiru were following her. Scar appeared and attacked Makoto. Scar then removed Makoto's Pure Heart Crystal as the now transformed Sailor Uranus and Sailor Neptune watch from hiding, waiting to see if the Crystal held a talisman. Kaolinite appeared to take the Crystal.
"World shaking" Sailor Uranus shouted, knocking the crystal from Kaolinite. The red head left, leaving Scar to fight them. Usagi arrived on the scene with her friends, who were eager to try thier new transformations.
"Mercury star power!"
"Venus star power!"
Mars star power!"
Moon cosmic power!"
"Make-up!"
Demando, Oparla and Topaz arrived as well, in thier Black Moon forms. Sailor Uranus gives the crystal to Princess Sailor Moon, who returns it to Makoto. Makoto joined in the fight and attached Scar.
"Moon spiral heart attack" Princess Sailor Moon cried, effectively destroying Scar.
As Sailor Uranus and Sailor Neptune started to leave Sailor Jupiter confronted them.
"You guys are as bad as the heart snatchers" She snapped. "Even if you are senshi, you have made an enemy out of me" She attacked Sailor Uranus, who knocked her down with a hard blow to the stomach and escaped with Neptune. As the two run away, however, Sailor Neptune noticed that Sailor Uranus was bleeding from Sailor Jupiter's attack
"She is pretty strong" Uranus admitted.
The five scouts stood with the Black Moon family and stared out over the lake.
"Those two are up to something" Usagi said frowning. "But what?"
