AN: Thanks for the reviews!

My mistake... thought I read somewhere that Starlights won't appear anymore in the new SM anime because the author didn't like how Toei changed them from men to women. but thats ok it's still SM and I'll still love it :)

ANYWAYS! Please enjoy this new chapter! =)


"Michiru, the winds are changing."

"Evil is approaching again Haruka."

The couple stood by the seaside by the sandy blonde's yellow sports car. Haruka had her arms around Michiru's waist. "It'll be alright if you're by my side." Haruka looked at her lover and kissed her on the cheek.


Usagi woke up later in the evening to the beating of Seiya's heart. She shifted a little to get closer to his warmth, not realizing that a pair of midnight blue eyes was watching her.

"Odango, we have to get up sometime." He had been awake for quite some time already but did not move so as not to wake the sleeping girl. She nodded and an inaudible muffled noise came from his chest.

"Mm? What was that?" he cooed while gently running his hand up and down her back.

She turned her head up to look at him, her eyes started to fill with tears again. "I don't want to leave. I won't be hurt here." She quickly turned her head back into his chest when the tears streamed quietly down her face once again.

"Ok then." He felt he tears soak through his shirt and knew she was crying again. He wanted to ask her what had happened but decided keep quiet for now. "But I'm getting hungry and I know you're hungry too." And right on cue, her stomach growled loudly. She buried her head deeper into his body in embarrassment while he chuckled softly. His laughter soothed her and the tears stopped flowing.

"Come on Odango. I'll go get us some food from the kitchen. We don't have to go out to eat if you don't want to." He felt her nod so he scooped her up as he got out of his bed. He gently placed her feet and headed out of his bedroom with her following timidly behind him. Reaching the living room, they saw Yaten sprawled out on the couch watching TV.

"It's late baka." But he stopped talking when Seiya shook his head at him. It was then that he noticed a dejected looking Usagi behind him. So he went back to looking at TV pretending to watch it when he was actually observing the couple.

Seiya warmed up some soup for the both of them and they sat down at the dinner table to eat it. After a while, he finally asked her what happened. Her eyes widened at the question and tears started to form again but she knew she owed him an explanation since he had been there for her for the whole day comforting her. Just his presence by her side had given her some sort of comfort. Her eyes had briefly glanced in Yaten's direction and Seiya understood what it meant.

"Oi Yaten, can you go to your room for a moment?" Yaten wanted to yell back but saw his pleading eyes and huffed. He got up without another word. Seiya looked at him in shock and confusion, 'He's actually listening to me without complaining? Mina is a good influence on him.' He then smirked at Yaten who just stuck up his nose and continued to the hallway to his room. But before he opened his bedroom door, he heard Usagi start talking so he stopped moving.

"Mamo-chan was with another girl." She did her best to hold back the tears. Usagi thought that it would be best to get it out and over with. If she couldn't tell Seiya then there was no one else she could tell. "I went there this morning to talk to him and I saw a naked girl come out of his bathroom. She grabbed her clothes from his room." She plopped her head on the table, hiding her face in her arms and starting crying again. She repeated "Chibi-Usa" over and over again between her sobs.

Seiya clenched his fist until his knuckles were white. 'How could he do this to her?' He placed a hand on her shoulder and squeezed it tightly. She raised her head to face him, eyes red and swollen.

"Don't cry," he forced a smile, "I'm here for you." He couldn't tell her that everything was going to be fine because it wasn't going to be since she lost her future and her future daughter. She just stared at him wide eyed as the tears were still falling quietly from her eyes. She then placed her hands over his fist that was clenched on his lap. She smiled weakly and whispered, "Thank you."

Yaten came running back to the dining area moments later, clearly frantic. "Mina told me there are wraiths appearing in the school yard." Without a moment's hesitation they all transformed and jumped out the balcony, heading for their school.


Mina was alone practising her volleyball serves late into the night when she heard screaming. She ran to the field and saw two wraiths, each holding onto a girl and sucking out the grey matter from them. She hid, called everyone and transformed into Sailor Venus. When she returned, the wraiths were about to throw the girls away; she wanted to catch them both but knew that she could only get to one of the girls. Thankfully two other figures caught the girls before their bodies had hit something. It was Sailor Mercury and Sailor Star Maker – Taiki and Ami had been studying in the library when they heard the screams. They jumped away to lay the girls down before joining Venus by her side.

The wraiths each started producing the new wraiths from their mouths. Mercury started collecting data as Venus and Maker fired their attacks at the creatures. The wraiths dodged the attacks and jumped towards the assaulting senshis. They body-slammed Maker and Venus against the wall and grabbed tightly on to their throats as the new wraiths continued to crawl out of their mouths. They were both covered in black slime from the slam. Mercury prepared to attack but didn't need to.

"Deep Submerge!"

"Mars Flame Sniper!"

The two attacks caught the wraiths and they were blasted to the side. Uranus and Jupiter jumped in to pull aside Maker and Venus, who were both unconscious.

Uranus glared at the wraiths. The first wraith had the new wraith's legs dangling from its mouth while the second only had the upper body emerged. "World Shaking!" He had also heard 3 other attacks fired at the same time. It was Healer, Fighter and one from the rooftop. Uranus and Fighter's attack hit the first wraith while Healer and the unknown attack hit the second. The first wraith fell to the ground as the new wraith it was producing stepped from its mouth. The second wraith froze in its spot.

"Sailor Moon! Use your Crystal!" yelled the unknown figure on the rooftop. Everyone turned to see who it was but it was dark out and they only saw a small black figure.

Sailor Moon pulled out her Silver Crystal to purify the wraiths. She had only caught two of the now three wraiths and they exploded. The new wraith had absorbed the light and blasted it back at the group.

"Silent Wall!" Saturn stood in front of everyone to deflect the oncoming blast. But as soon as the light and her defense faded, the wrath had jumped in front of her and started choking her. She dropped her Glaive while the wraith started sucking the air around her.

"SATURN!" Everyone yelled but they could not attack in fear of hurting their comrade in front of it. The grey matter emerged from Saturn's mouth as she choked for air whilst trying to pry away the fingers that were enclosed around her throat. Uranus held her sword and charged at the creature from the side, hoping to slice through the arm which held Saturn. 'Its body is incredibly dense.' Uranus realized that if she didn't let go now, the wraith would attack her. Her sword had only sliced half way through the arm before the creature stopped sucking and shrieked. Its fingers loosened around Saturn's neck and the other hand had gotten a hold of the blade of Uranus's sword. Uranus released her sword, grabbed Saturn and jumped to safety. Once the wraith had stopped sucking the air, the slimy grey matter retreated forcefully back down the girl's throat causing her to cough violently. The wraith was about to retaliate when another blast hit it from behind. While it was distracted, an attack came from the rooftop to immobilize it… the wraith had no time to turn around and suck the attack.

"Sailor Moon! Again!" The figure yelled again.

Sailor Moon nodded and released the light of the silver Crystal again. This time it engulfed the remaining wraith, destroying it as it exploded.

The group stared back at the rooftop but the figure had disappeared. As Mars and Jupiter tried to run to catch the person, Fighter stopped them.

"Don't go after her." She commanded.

"Why? Who is it?" Neptune was the one who spoke up.

"We don't know, but we were told that whoever it is, they are only trying to help us and that we shouldn't go after them." Sailor Moon answered

"But…" Mars started to complain but was interrupted.

"Let's go to the shrine to talk guys. We have to take care of those who are hurt," Mercury pointed to Maker, Venus, and Saturn. "And I have information."
