It was another day in the Juuban. Usagi who was running late for school as usual, was running to make it on time as fast as she could.
"Oh man! I'm gonna be late again!" she cried. "But if I keep running like this, then I'll be too tired to study!"
Then she stopped to try and catch her breath right by a drugstore putting her hands on her knees. She then happened to notice poster on the window. It was of a young brunette girl with her hair in a ponytail looking like she was a part of a gymnastics team holding a bottle in her hand. Usagi inspected the poster a little closer.
"Feeling exhausted? Try this energy booster recommended by Mikan," she read. "Well if Mikan thinks I should try it, then maybe I will."
Just then Naru ran up who was also running late. Then she saw Usagi staring at the poster of Mikan. As she ran by, she purposely held up her bag and made it smack Usagi on the back of her head.
"Ow! What was that for Naru?!" cried Usagi rubbing her head.
"Get moving slowpoke!" called Naru. "There's no time to be daydreaming!"
Usagi was still irritated at Naru for hitting her, but she knew that she was right and then she followed close behind her running as fast as he legs could carry her.
Eventually Usagi and Naru managed to make it to school on time just before the bell rung. Usagi however was still rubbing her head in pain.
"Ow... that really hurt..." she grumbled.
"You should be grateful that's all you suffered," said Harusuke. "The last thing you need is Ms. Haruna giving you a reason to stand in the hall."
"That's right," smiled Naru. "So, feel free to thank me for saving your sorry butt from being late."
Then Umino came up to three looking very excited. He also had a rolled-up poster in his hands.
"Hey you guys! Check this out!" he said. "I finally got the poster of Mikan Shiratori!"
He then unfurled the poster revealing it to be the same poster that Usagi saw earlier this morning.
"Wait a minute Umino. You didn't steal that from the drugstore, did you?" asked Usagi.
"Of course not!" said Umino. "I ordered this little gem over an internet store. I also have a whole bunch more if you're interested in getting one. I can sell it to you for cheap."
"We're... gonna have to pass," said Naru.
"By the way, who's this Mikan Shiratori person?" asked Harusuke. "Is she some kind of idol?"
"That's right!" said Umino as he whipped out his computer and began typing. "And not only that, but did you know that she used to attend Juuban Middle School just like us and she's seventeen years old? She's also appeared in eight commercials and each month she makes over two million yen!"
"Whoa! You're kidding!" cried Harusuke. "Two million yen?!"
"That's a ton of money!" said Usagi. "I wonder how many pieces of shortcake I could buy with that?"
Then two female classmates named Yumiko and Kuri who happened to overhear the conversation chimed in.
"You know if I'm not mistaken," said Yumiko. "I believe that Mikan was discovered right here in town."
"She sure is lucky," said Kuri. "I wish I could have been discovered as well."
"I agree," said Naru. "If I had some luck, I'd want to be discovered too."
"I know! I just can't believe that those talent scouts haven't noticed us yet!" complained Yumiko. "They either must be blind or ignoring us."
"To be perfectly honest," said Umino straightening his glasses. "It's seems that they probably ignored you because they can see right through you very well."
Yumiko, Kuri, and Naru glared at Umino while Harusuke couldn't help but snicker.
"I hate to say it, but Umino got you girls pegged on that one," he chuckled.
"Besides," continued Umino. "I believe that someone else will come to become next big star from our school and follow and follow in Mikan's footsteps."
"And who would that be?" wondered Harusuke.
Umino chuckled and paused impressively. Then he then pointed to the very person. "Usagi!"
Naru and the girls as well as Harusuke just stared at Umino like he had said something totally strange. Usagi however surprised that Umino had picked her felt surprised, but then she stood up radiating with confidence.
"That's right! I'm gonna be the next star!" she proclaimed.
Umino applauded showing his support. "Huzzah!
Meanwhile in the middle of town, Mikan Shiratori was making a public appearance signing autographs for all the girls and boys that surround her. As more fans gathered around, Jadeite stood there watching this in disguise.
"Hmm. Perhaps I can use all of this energy," he thought to himself.
He then turned on his heel and walked away.
After school at the Tsukino house, Naru and Usagi were in Usagi's room discussing over what Umino just said about idol and the two of them becoming idols. Naru then came up with an idea.
"Hey! Why don't we become a duo of idols?!" she said.
"What?! You mean as in singing together?!" squeaked Usagi.
"Yes! We'll care straight into the entertainment world!" proclaimed Naru pointing to the ceiling.
Usagi then shot up and went to her closer. After rummaging through it for a couple of minutes, Usagi grabbed a tennis racket and held it like she was preparing to go to war.
"All right! I'm ready!" she said with determination. "Let's do this!"
Naru stared at Usagi for a moment and then she shook her head. "No! That's not what I meant!" she said. "I mean that we should both promote ourselves with a song and once we do that, then we'll become even bigger stars than Mikan will ever was!"
"Stars?!" asked Usagi excitedly. "Are you serious?!"
"Yes! That's right!" said Naru grinning. "We'll become an overnight sensation just like Cinderella!
"In that case, let's go for it!" cheered Usagi. "Let's get started right now!"
Luna who was lying down on Usagi's bed only shook her head exasperated. "This won't end well," she thought. "This isn't exactly the time to be thinking about those things.
Usagi and Naru then turned on the radio in Usagi's room playing the song Moonlight Densetsu as they began to sing. However, their singing was less than on key and their dancing was completely unsynchronized.
Gomen-ne It's hard for me to say
Although it's easy to say it in my dreams
My thought circuit is about break down
You know right now I want with me!
Just then Shingo and Harusuke came into the room.
"Hey! Enough with all that screeching!" yelled Shingo.
"Yeah! Some of us are trying to get some homework done!" said Harusuke.
"Hey! What do you mean screeching!?" snapped Usagi.
"That's a rude thing to say! Especially to the stars of tomorrow!" said Naru.
"Um... yeah. Whatever," said Shingo feeling put off.
"Just please try and keep it down you two," said Harusuke. "We're trying to get things done here."
Then Shingo and Harusuke left. Naru then turned to Usagi.
"Let's try it again," encouraged Naru. "One more time! Second verse!"
"Yeah!" nodded Usagi.
The two then tried singing again adding a few dance moves here and there. However, things didn't get better. First Usagi had inadvertently stuck her arm in front of Naru almost hitting her. Then Naru accidentally swung her arms around knocking Usagi on the back of her head. However, the two kept going with their awkward singing and dance routine. Then Usagi stepped on Naru's foot making her cry out in pain. That was the final straw.
"OUCH! Darn it Usagi! You're always so clumsy!" she cried holding her foot in pain.
Usagi stopped. "I'm clumsy!? You're the one to talk!" she snapped. "You're just as bad as I am!"
"At least I don't go and blame others!" Naru shot back.
"Forget that! That's you!" Usagi argued.
The two gazed grimly at each other.
"Fine then!" huffed Naru. "If that's the way it's going to be, then I'll just have to go and become an idol on my own!"
"Fine with me!" Usagi huffed back. "Starting today, you can consider us rivals!"
Usagi and Naru glared at each other the sparks flying out of their eyes from the intensity. Luna could only sigh as she shrugged her shoulders.
A little later after Naru had gone home, the Tsukinos were all sitting in the living room watching TV together. Usagi was still thinking about her recent argument with Naru as well as figuring out her next move.
"Now that I've said all that to Naru, I wonder what should I do now?" she thought to herself.
On the TV, a man with showing off a monkey doing tricks.
"Act sorry," said the man.
The monkey did so by bowing his head apologetically causing the crowd to laugh.
"What a smart little monkey!" giggled Ikuko.
"I'll say," said Kenji chuckling. He then turned to Luna. "Hey Luna, I bet you could do tricks like that if you were trained."
Then an idea came into Usagi's mind causing her to jump out of her seat.
"Dad you're a genius!" she cried.
"A genius about what?" wondered Harusuke.
"Don't you worry Harusuke," said Usagi as she picked up Luna. "Just don't be surprised when you see celebrity reporters here soon!"
And with that she dashed out of the room with Luna leaving Kenji, Ikuko, Shingo, and Harusuke leaving puzzled.
"What was that all about?" asked Kenji. "You think that she's running a fever or something?"
"She seems OK to me," said Ikuko.
"She's just acting as weird as she always is," said Shingo.
Harusuke could only look towards the doorway where Usagi had left with Luna.
"I would go and see what she's up to," he thought to himself "But then again it's probably nothing. She's probably trying to cook up some kind of way of being a superstar using Luna. I swear... sometimes I do not get that girl."
In Usagi's room, she was training Luna into using the same tricks as the man she had seen on TV.
"Act sorry!" she commanded.
Luna did so bowing her head looking as apologetic as she could.
"This is so humiliating," she said. "Why do we have to do this again Usagi?"
"It's a means to get us into stardom!" snapped Usagi. "Now quit complaining and do it again! Act sorry!"
Luna could only do as Usagi said as the training continued all night.
Meanwhile Umino was heading for Naru's place after receiving a strange phone from Naru telling him to come over at her place at once. Umino wasn't sure what was going on, but there was no way he would pass up a call from Naru. So, he went. As soon as Umino arrived at Naru's front door, he rang the doorbell.
"Hello! Naru? It's Gurio Umino!" he called trying to be polite thinking that Naru's parents were home. "Your daughter invited me to come over. May I come in?"
Then Naru opened the door poking out her head not trying to be seen.
"Just come in here quick!" whispered Naru.
Then before Umino had a chance to react, Naru grabbed him by the arm and yanked him inside. Next thing Umino knew, he was dragged all the way to Naru's room, had his clothes ripped off being replaced by a girl's outfit comprised of a salmon pink dress, and Naru was putting make up all over his face. When she finished, she stepped back and took a look at him.
"Well... I guess that's all I can do," said Naru admiring her handiwork. "You actually look great in pink Umino."
"Um... I don't understand," said Umino who felt uncomfortable. "Why are you making me dress up like this? You know I have homework."
"Now, now. Instead of doing homework, you should be doing something much more important like socializing," said Naru.
"Socializing?" puzzled Umino. "Why is that?"
"Because Usagi said that you'd be ten times more attractive if you showed some interest about learning how to socialize," explained Naru.
Naru was obviously lying, but Umino believed her.
"Seriously?! Usagi said that about me?!" he squealed. "In that case, I'll do it! I'll do anything as long as Usagi likes me for it!"
He then started to pretend that he was a girl.
"Thank you so much Naru!" he said putting on his best teenage girl impression. "I feel like my whole life has changed thanks to you!"
Naru smiled awkwardly feeling a little put off. "Oh is... that so...?"
"Oh well," she thought. "A beauty and the beast combo just might get the scouts attention. If I can do that, then I'm willing to put up with anything as long as I can get scouted."
In another part of Juuban, Mikan Shiratori was staying at a hotel taking a shower after a day of signing autographs. She hummed herself a little tune as the water washed over her body helping her relax. However, what she didn't know was that someone or something was sneaking up on her in the shower. Then suddenly, the curtains were whipped aside and Mikan shrieked in terror.
In front of her face was another one of Jadeite's monsters named Derella. Her entire body seemed to be made of a turquoise and she had the face of a goblin and wore a purple dress. Before Mikan could even try to escape, Derella sprayed a strange turquoise glass substance from her mouth getting it all over Mikan. The glass substance was sticky and soon began to harden. Mikan even tried calling for help, but her mouth was then shut. Then having to have captured her target, Derella touched Mikan's hand with her finger and then transformed herself into an exact duplicate of Mikan. She smirked with triumph as she got to go into the phase of the plan.
The very next day, Derella disguised as Mikan along with Jadeite made their appearances on a stage in town with a huge announcement with a crowd of students gathering before them.
"Hey! Is that Mikan Shiratori?" asked a girl.
"I think it is," said another girl. "But what's she doing here?"
"Hey you!" said Jadeite. "And you! And you too! Do you want to be a star?! Have you ever dreamed of becoming one? Then be like Mikan Shiratori! Transform your life just like Cinderella from the fairy tale and apply for the Cinderella Caravan today!"
Then from on top of the stage, a large satellite like dish pointed right at the crowd emitting a strange frequency that began to hypnotize all the people who were there as Mikan spoke.
"Hello everyone!" said Mikan. "I'm Mikan Shiratori and I'm looking for people who have dreams of becoming big stars! If you're interested, go sign up and take part in the Cinderella Caravan!"
The hypnotized people all began mumbling in response.
"I wanna be like her... I wanna be like her... I wanna be like her..."
"I can't hear you everyone!" encouraged Mikan. "What do you want to become?!"
"A star!" cheered the crowd.
Just then a policeman arrived at the scene. When he saw the crowd of students, he was surprised.
"Hey what's going on here?!" he asked. "Why aren't all you kids in school?"
He wasn't the only one who arrived on the scene surprised. A young stout man with glasses also came. He was Mikan's agent.
"Mikan what's going on here?!" he demanded. "Why did you cancel your performances all of a sudden? You can't just do that you know!"
Mikan ignored them and kept on encouraging the crowd as the ray that was coming from the satellite dish began to hypnotize the policeman and Mikan's agent too.
"Starting today, you're all gonna be stars!" said Mikan.
The two men looked at each other smiled. "Stars!" they cheered. "We're gonna be stars!"
Then they both began to perform tricks. The policeman did a headstand while Mikan's agent pulled a leg up into the air. Jadeite watched them with a sinister grin on his face pleased that his plan was working.
Back at school not long after, the word of the Cinderella Caravan had reached even as far at the Juuban Middle School. Harusuke, Naru, and Usagi were just walking down the hall when Yumika and Kuri ran up to them.
"Hey you guys! Big news!" said Yumiko.
"Have you guys heard about the Cinderella Caravan?" asked Kuri.
"No. What's that?" asked Usagi.
Naru couldn't help but chuckle. "What a shame. You sure are behind the times Usagi," she laughed.
"Shut up! I was busy with some other stuff thank you," grumped Usagi.
"Anyway, mind telling us what that is?" asked Harusuke.
"Sure," replied Yumiko. "It's a talent search hoping to find the next Mikan Shiratori."
"Not only that, but Mikan has given her full support on the thing so you know it's the real deal!" said Kuri.
Naru and Usagi's eyes went wide with excitement while Harusuke rolled his.
"Yes! This is my chance!" said Usagi. "I'm so gonna win this thing!"
"What do you even talking about?!" said Naru. "I'm the one who's gonna win this contest!" Then she saw Umino who happened to be walking by. "Right Umino?"
Umino giggled using his feminine accent. "You got that right girlfriend!"
Harusuke and the girls almost fell over in surprise. Naru then whispered to Umino.
"Don't do it now!" she hissed. "You're going to give away the act!"
"Pwactice makes Poifect!" said Umino as he walked away.
Usagi, Kuri, Yumiko, and Harusuke all watched as Umino left still feeling baffled by his strange behavior.
It was now after school and Usagi and Luna were walking through town heading for the Cinderella Caravan with Harusuke for support.
"Today's the day!" Usagi said aloud. "Today we're have a chance to show off all the progress we made!"
"I still think this whole thing is weird," said Harusuke. "Ever since Umino mentioned this idol business, you and Naru have been acting weird and even are getting at each other's throats."
"You wouldn't understand Harusuke," said Usagi. "Because you're not idol material."
"Excuse me for not being idol material," muttered Harusuke.
Then he noticed Luna who was walking slowly behind them looking sad.
"What's the matter Luna?" asked Harusuke. "You look down."
Luna then came to a stop and then buried her face in her paws. "I'm sorry... but I can't do this..." she said.
Usagi was surprised. "What?! Why not?!" she exclaimed. "You can't just go and back out now!"
"Look... I went along with this in the first was because I figured it would be a nice change of pace for you," said Luna. "However, that's not what you want. You're heavily obsessed with trying to be become a star."
"That's not true at all," said Usagi trying to be convincing.
"Yes, it is," said Luna.
"No, it's not!" said Usagi defiantly.
"Then prove it! Stop trying to get into that Cinderella contest then," said Luna sternly.
"Now Luna hold on a minute," said Harusuke trying to ease the situation but Luna interrupted.
"No Harusuke. Usagi needs to know that now is not the time to be playing around!" Luna lectured. "She doesn't understand just how important both of your missions are, so she needs to stop this nonsense! Now if you don't mind I'd like to go home!"
Usagi clenched her hands as her eyes welled up in tears.
"Oh no... Now she's done it," said Harusuke worriedly.
Then Usagi burst into tears. "Luna! You're so mean! You just don't understand anything about me or about the innocent dreams of young girls!" she cried as she took off running.
"Usagi! Wait!" cried Harusuke. "Come back!"
Usagi didn't listen. She just kept on running. Eventually she saw the last person she expected to run into. The casually dressed boy with black hair. As soon as she saw him, she immediately stopped crying and quickly hid herself behind an alley fearing that he would tease her again.
"It's that stupid jerk again!" she thought. "Of all the times for him to show up, it had to be now! Hopefully he didn't see me."
Then Harusuke was came up finding her first.
"Usagi! There you are," said Harusuke. "Don't run off like that!"
"Shh! Be quiet!" snapped Usagi. "Can't you see I'm hiding here?!"
"Hiding? From who?" wondered Harusuke.
He found that out soon enough. Right then, the casually dressed boy came from around the corner and found the two.
"Well what do you know. It's bun-head and her brother," he said. "What brings you two around here?"
"None of your business," said Harusuke.
"Don't tell me that you two are going to that Cinderella Caravan contest?"
Usagi huffed in response turning away.
"And let me guess," continued the boy. "You're both going to try to impress them with a comedy routine you two came up with, right?"
"No of course not!" snapped Usagi. "Like we'd do something like that! Just stop bothering us! And get a new outfit! Come on Harusuke!"
Usagi then stomped away grabbing Harusuke by the arm leaving the boy with an amused look on his face.
At the Cinderella Caravan stage various performers were performing various feats in the hopes of getting chosen by Mikan still under the spell of Jadeite. Kuri and Yumiko were doing a comedy routine.
"I needed some bread and the grocer said that it was "under there." "said Yumiko.
"Oh yeah? Then what happened?" asked Kuri.
"A moment later, they gave me these," said Yumiko as she held up a pair of strawberry underwear.
"And way is that?" asked Kuri.
"When they said, "under there" I said "under where"?! " finished Yumiko.
"You're moving onto the next round girls!" said Mikan. "Wonderful performance!"
She then took a hammer which was also a stamp and tapped their hands making a mark appear on them. Yumiko and Kuri were delighted. Next it was Umino and Naru's turn. They were both just finished a duet of a song together. When they finished, Mikan then stamped their hands as well.
"Congratulations!" she said. "You're both moving on as well!"
"All right! We did it!" cheered Naru.
"We really do have talent girlfriend!" smiled Umino.
Then Mikan turned towards the crowd. "Those of you who got stamped and are moving on will be performing live at the Shan-Shan plaza next Sunday!" she said. "And that's will be when you all will become stars!"
As the crowd cheered in response while Mikan smirked with triumph.
The next day, Usagi and Harusuke were going to class as usual. When they entered the classroom, they were in for quite a shock. The desks were all pushed to the other side of the room and everyone who was in the classroom was rehearsing for the big night. Yumiko and Kuri were practicing their comedy routine.
"What happens when you pluck the feathers off a bald eagle?" asked Yumiko.
"Nothing! It's already bald!" finished Kuri.
"What in the blazes...?" murmured Harusuke.
Usagi went over to Naru. "Good morning Naru. Whatcha doing?" she asked.
Naru didn't answer. She was busy writing her name on blank slates practicing for when she had to sign autographs.
"All right then everyone!" called Umino holding a bag. "Did you all get your streamers?" Then he caught sight of Usagi and Harusuke. He went over to them and gave them a roll of streamers from his bag, Usagi light blue one and Harusuke green. "There you go you two," you said.
Usagi and Harusuke looked at their streamers and then at each other in confusion still wondering what was going on. Then Naru suddenly stood up from her desk surprising them.
"All right everyone!" she said. "We're going to have an autograph session starting now!"
"But guys...! Wait a minute!" said Usagi. "Should we be in class right now?"
"Yeah. Aren't you afraid that you're all gonna get in trouble with Ms. Haruna?" asked Harusuke.
"Hey, cut us some slack!" snapped Yumiko. "We're working or butts off on our acts here!"
"Yeah! Stars like us don't need stupid classes!" agreed Kuri.
"Hey! Throw the streamers!" said Umino. Everyone did just that, but one of the rolls of streamers hit Umino square in the face. "Ouch! Be careful!" he chided. "You shouldn't injure a star's face otherwise he won't be a star anymore!"
Usagi and Harusuke could only at each other still confused by everything that was going on. One thing was sure, things had taken a turn for the bizarre.
Later that morning, the students were gathered around a makeshift stage with Umino and Naru practicing their duet while Usagi, Harusuke, and Luna watched from a distance on the bench.
"Don't you two find this all a bit strange?" asked Luna.
"Yup," replied Usagi.
"Strange is a bit of an understatement," said Harusuke. "It's more like everyone in school's got a case of Mikan fever."
"And it's not just here," said Luna. "It's been like this all over town too! People are suddenly neglecting their daily responsibilities because they think they're stars."
"Do you think a monster's behind all this?" wondered Harusuke.
"I'm not sure," said Luna. "but one thing's for sure: they all went to that Cinderella contest the other day."
"Then if that's true, then we could have ended up like them!" said Usagi. "Then again... you could have blocked my path to stardom."
"You're still on about that?" deadpanned Harusuke. "Seriously. It's better than being like those guys right now."
"That's right. You should be thanking me for saving you," said Luna snootily.
Then they heard Umino and Naru call out to the other students.
"Make sure you all come to Shan-Shan plaza to see our big concert!" called Naru.
"We still have tickets left over, so make sure you get em while you can!" added Umino.
"Hold on! What do you mean by that?!" called out Yumiko.
"Yeah! The show in Shan-Shan Plaza is supposed to be our big show!" protested Kuri.
Then the entire crowd of students began to argue with each other the arguing escalating higher and higher.
"Wow... they actually believe they're stars," said Usagi.
"I guess so," said Harusuke.
Soon enough, Sunday came around and Naru, Umino, Yumiko, Kuri, and the other contestant were all gathered around backstage ready to perform. Then Mikan appeared and addressed everybody.
"Listen up everyone!" she said. "Soon all of your shows are about to begin! Can't you hear the audience cheering for you?!"
At first no one could hear anything, but then when the curtains began to go up, a disco ball hanging from above began emitting a strange frequency making everyone in there except for Mikan to hear and see an audience in front of them.
"Here we go! Let's do our best, Yuminko!" said Kuri.
"You bet Kuri!" Yumiko smiled.
"It's almost show time..." said Naru nervously.
"I know! It's so exciting!" said Umino.
Then all of the participants including Naru and the others began performing their routines all at once. In the audience seats in the front row, Mikan smiled evilly chuckling.
"I think it's about time I take your energy now," she said to herself.
She twisted the tiny microphone of her chest and then began to drain all of the energy from the participants.
While this was going on, the energy was being sent to Jadeite gathering in the form of a large glowing white ball.
Jadeite smiled as the large ball glowed in his hand.
"Very soon I'll have a fresh batch of energy for our great ruler," he said to himself as he cackled with triumph.
Outside of the Shan-Shan plaza, Usagi, Harusuke, and Luna had just arrived at the Shan-Shan themselves. It was very quiet. Not a single person could be find.
"OK. This is so weird," said Usagi. "There's no one around."
"Yeah. You'd think that'd there would be a lot of people here," said Harusuke.
"Come on. Let's go inside and see what's going on," said Luna.
And so, the three walked inside of the plaza and went to the main stage. When they got close to the main stage, they peeped inside of the theater and their eyes widened in shock. On the stage was Naru, Umino, and the others performing on the stage, but there was no one to be seen in the audience. That was until one person stood up. From behind she looked like Mikan, but then the being turned its head around revealing the true face of the being. It was Derella.
"So... you two seen everything eh?" she snarled.
"Holy crap...!" cried Harusuke.
Usagi screamed in horror. "Mikan is a monster!" she cried as she dashed away with Harusuke right behind her.
The two of them didn't stop running until they made it to the restrooms in the building. Harusuke stopped by the boy's while Usagi dashed into the girl's room.
"Usagi! Come out of there!" said Luna. "We need Solaris and Sailor Moon!"
"Do I have to?" whined Usagi. "That monster was so scary!"
"I know Usagi! I was scared a little too!" said Harusuke. "But we need to transform! We have to save Naru and the others!"
"Oh, all right," said Usagi.
She reluctantly came out of the restrooms still scared, but that fear was quickly replaced with determination as she and Harusuke transformed.
"MOON PRISM POWER MAKE UP!"
"SOLARIS GUARDIAN POWER FLARE UP!"
Transformation Sequence: Usagi
Usagi was enveloped in a bright light. Her body shone with rainbow colors as she seemed to spin around. Then from her brooch it shone pink and pink ribbon shot out wrapping her upper torso and midsection and then became a white leotard with a red bow in the center and a blue collar with white stripes. Usagi crosses her arms and pink ribbon wraps around her arms turning into a pair of long white gloves. Pink ribbon then wraps around Usagi's legs and turns into a pair of red thigh-high boots. Then a blue skirt appears around Usagi's waist with a red bow in the back. Then a small gem starts glowing in the middle of Usagi's forehead. A gold tiara with a red gem, a pair of dangling crescent moon earrings, a red choker with a moon on it appear along with a pair of red circular accents in her hair buns. Usagi then strikes her signature pose.
Transformation sequence: Harusuke.
Harusuke's bracelet begins to glow as Harusuke holds it into the air. The symbol of the sun begins to glow on Harusuke's head as his body is enveloped in golden yellow and silver light. The sun appears right above him shining it's light upon him. As Harusuke is bathed in its light a silver jumpsuit with gold lines on his hips materializes around his body. The light shone on his legs and long golden metal boots that went up to his knees appear on his legs with silver hexagon knee-pads. The light shone on his arms and then golden gauntlets appear on his hands going up to wrists. Then a yellow symbol of the sun materializes in front of him and it crashes into his chest making a golden chest piece of armor appear with silver shoulder guards. Finally, a silver helmet covers head exposing his hair and making it stand up with a mouth guard covering his mouth and nose. Harusuke's eyes open his eyes and then strikes his signature pose the symbol of the sun appears behind hi
Back on the stage due to the energy draining, all the performers were now unconscious due to having their energy sucked completely out of them. Derella smirked with having completed her mission. Then suddenly the curtains closed, the disco ball from above stopped spinning, and the room went black.
"What's happened?! What's going on?!" wondered Derella feeling a little panicked.
Then two voices came from behind the curtains.
"You evil friend!" said a female voice. "How dare you place fake glass slippers on the hearts of young girls who dream of becoming Cinderella!"
"And giving men false hope on the chance that they would someday become Prince Charming!" said a male voice. "That alone is unforgivable!"
"Who's there?!" demanded Derella.
Then a bright light shone on the center of the stage revealing the two heroes.
"I'm the Pretty Guardian who fights for love and justice!"
"And I'm the knight with the brilliance of the sun and the courage of a warrior who also fights for love and justice!"
"I'm Sailor Moon! And in the name of the moon, I'll punish you!"
"And I'm Solaris! And in the name of the sun, with my blinding rays, I'll scorch you!"
Derella leaped from the seats and revealed her true from in front of Solaris and Sailor Moon.
"Just as we thought," said Sailor Moon. "She really was a monster all along!"
"Then let's take it out!" said Solaris.
Derella fired the same web-like glass substance from her mouth at them, but Sailor Moon and Solaris dove into the seats hiding themselves. Derella floated from above trying to find them.
"Where did you two go?!" she snarled.
Soalris and Sailor Moon crawled their way under the chairs trying to stay quiet until they could get the chance to attack before Derella found one of them. Unfortunately, one of them was found first. That someone was Sailor Moon.
"There you are!" snarled Derella.
"Oh no!" cried Solaris.
He looked in time to see that Derella had fired the glass substance from her mouth right at Sailor Moon. She was now covered from neck to toe in gooey green glass substance. To make things worse, the glass substance was beginning to harden.
"What is this stuff?!" cried Sailor Moon. "I can't get free!"
"Hang on Sailor Moon! I'm coming!" cried Solaris as he rushed toward her trying to save her.
Derella however saw Solaris coming and from her mouth fired the glass substance at him. Solaris jumped dodging the attack and then went to attack Derella by throwing a punch. The punch connected sending Derella back. Solaris then rushed toward Sailor Moon.
"Hold on Sailor Moon! I get you out!" he said as he came up to her.
He then tried to get the glass substance off her, but she couldn't Then Derella recovered from the blow and then fired her glass substance from her mouth again. This time the attack connected and now Solaris was covered in the glass substance.
"Damn it! I am caught too!" he cried.
"Now you're both mine!" screeched Derella victoriously.
She then spewed out more of the glass substance making it spread more on their necks up to their faces.
"No... I can't... breathe..." groaned Sailor Moon as she was now completely covered in the glass substance.
"Sailor... Moon..." gasped Solaris as he too was enveloped.
Both Sailor Moon and Solaris were now still as statues as Derella's glass substance hardened completely. She cackled with victory.
"That's right! It's all over for you both!" she said with glee.
But it wasn't over yet. Right then and there, two roses shot out. One hit Sailor Moon on her hand and the other hit Solaris on his back. The glass on both of their bodies began to crackle from the impact and then broke away completely setting Sailor Moon and Solaris free.
"No! My glass prison!" cried Derella. "Who did that?!"
She looked up to where the roses came from as did Sailor Moon and Solaris. There standing on a balcony under the spotlight was none other than Tuxedo Mask.
"Tuxedo Mask! It's you!" exclaimed Solaris.
"You saved our lives!" said Sailor Moon smiling. "Thank you very much!"
"Sailor Moon! Solaris! You're both the stars of this show now!" he said. "Make sure you're both bright stars! Good luck!"
And with wave of his cape, he disappeared. Derella who was now furious, tried to chase after him.
"Come back here!" she hissed. "You won't escape from me!"
Then Luna appeared. "Sailor Moon! Solaris! Now's your chance! She's wide open!"
Sailor Moon and Solaris nodded and then unleashed their attacks. Sailor Moon took off her tiara transformed it into a white disk and Solaris clapped his hands together creating a ball of yellow light. Then the two of them took aim and fired their attacks.
"MOON TIARA ACTION!"
"SUNSHINE METEOR!"
Both attacks slammed right into Derella making her shatter into a million pieces along with the microphone containing the energy she was carrying and the disco ball from above. On the stage, Naru and the other victims had finally regained conscious not remembering what had happened including the real Mikan who was still in the shower at her hotel not remembering what had happened either.
Usagi, Harusuke, and Luna all rested in Usagi's room managing to make it back home safely. Usagi however felt very exhausted.
"Man... I'm so tired," she sighed.
"Then let that be a lesson to you Usagi," said Luna. "Nothing good can come when you get too obsessed."
"Yeah. Yeah," said Usagi.
"Don't you give me that!" Luna suddenly snapped. "I want you to think about what you did! Act sorry!"
Feeling startled, Usagi immediately straightened up and then did exactly what the monkey did she saw on TV looking as apologetic as much as she could. Harusuke sweat dropped at this sight.
"I would say that this is too much," he thought. "But... I guess Luna does owe a little payback. Oh well."
All right! Sailor Mercury is coming for the best episode!
I can't wait! Until then...
Dragoman out!
