~Meanwhile~
Pluto: Here's the transport point. (Steps onto the small round platform and stands ready as a breeze encircled her body) Oh holy Chronos... please hear my call... bring me to the present.... (A light flashed and she disappeared into the darkness to the present time. On a street corner in the present. A bright flash of light circled around a semi deserted street corner and she reappears in civilian clothing which consisted of a knee length blue skirt, a white blouse,  a matching blue jacket, and nice white sandals with a suitcase of her belongings besides her) This will do nicely.... (She smiles and opens the white purse that's hanging from her left shoulder, tucks her transformation pen safely inside, clips the flap shut, and picks up the suitcase) As soon as I find a place to stay I'll begin looking for the senshi and help them with their mission.... (She begins walking across the pedestrian walk while looking for an apartment complex)

~Back at the Warehouse~
Pots:  (looked at Hikari) Looks can be deceiving.
Chase:  (sits there nervous talking softly to himself) Ok, I got two choices here.. One, Stay hidden till they leave and then leave myself.. or Two, just show myself now and instead of getting caught later.. (he sighs softly)
Michiru: (Feeling of no use just standing there, she decided to catch up to Pots and see who he was talking to. Frozen in her place when she got there, she was trying to figure out where this girl was from. All this deja vu was getting to her)
Chase:  (finally makes up his mind and says to himself) Ok, I'll just reveal myself now and get it over with, maybe they will be easier on me. (He stands up into view looking down at the ground) Gomen nasai.. I am here as well because I followed this girl to see what she was up to.
Michiru: (turned her attentions to a young man who emerged from the dark. Smiling, she thought) Here I am in a warehouse, my closest connections to Sailor Aquamarine who I don't even recognize from my past life yet. (Then she asked with an amused glint in her eyes) You two are very curious individuals, aren't you?
Pots:  (looked at both people that had revealed themselves. He turned to Chase) Don't get me wrong, I could smell you too. (He then turned to speak to both of them) What business brings you here? 
Chase: (walks out to the rest of them) Well.. for me I saw her (points to Hikari) all of a sudden run off, so I decided to follow her and see what she was up to. I may be a curious person but I can assure you that I am not a dangerous one.
Michiru: (Her senses told her that Chase and Hikari were people they could trust. She nodded, her wavy aquamarine hair swaying to the sides as she did) So, is anyone up for telling me what's happening? I wouldn't know since I've been out of the country touring at concerts. I came back as soon as I could when I found out that Tokyo was being attacked again. (her smile faded and it was replaced with a solemn expression)
Chase: I really don't know. That fight on the streets was the first I've seen since I got here. And it showed.. I don't think my aim was very good that time. In fact if my memory and long range vision is correct I believe you were that senshi I was trying to help during that. 
Michiru: Senshi, (she thought to herself, So he knew. So everyone knew. Then, what happened to all the civilians that didn't have the burden of saving the world? Where did they run off to? Although she hadn't henshined into Sailor Neptune for over a few months, Michiru felt as if she couldn't escape from her duty of being a senshi. As always she dreamt of painting and playing the violin) Oh Kami-sama, (she thought, she left her violin case back in the alley during the attack) I need to go back to get my violin, (she said softly to Pots, Chase and Hikari) I'll be back in five minutes.
Pots: (nodded to Hikari and Chase) Rad will talk to you guys if you need to. (Pots then turned to Rad) I'll go with Michiru!
Rad:  (nodded as Pots scurried off behind Michiru)
Michiru: (It was getting quite windy outside, and a breeze sent ripples down Michiru's long school skirt as she walked out of the warehouse followed by Pots. She turned around and smiled appreciatively at Rad's companion) Watching out for me again? Such a gentleman. (Michiru turned back and resumed walking. The weather made her think of her partner, then to Setsuna and Hotaru. While walking down the sidewalk, she even thought she saw her friend on the other side of the street) I'm hallucinating, (she silently said to herself)
Hikari: (Decided that since she couldn't sense any evil from either Rad or Chase she could trust them and she didn't have any reason to hide why she had been spying) I was spying because I suspected that there could be other senshi near here. That you can blame on my ability to sense things due to my power over illusions.
Rad: (Looked at Hikari. For a minute he looked like he was going to yell at her. But a smile spread across his face. He reared back his head and laughed out loud) Quite all right. But you are correct in saying that I and my dog Pots are senshi.

~Back at the Restaurant~
Lady Culex:  (rests her head in her head and yawns) Listen guys, I'm getting really tired. (she stands up and while pushing her hair behind her ears a small navy blue orb off her shoulder armor pops out and rolls towards Ignus's feet) I'm going to return to Tiamatt's Lair. If anything interesting occurs please let me know! See you later! Oh! Here's some money for the bill! (she sets a handful of money on the table next to Asuka) Bye! (Lady Culex disappears)
Ignus:  (felt something at his feet as he picked up his last fry. He looked down and saw a blue orb) Hello, what's this? (Ignus crouched down and picked it up and observed it for a bit. By this time, the orb had caught Gerrard's attention)
Gerrard: What's that?
Ignus: Not quite sure bud. Could be something useful, but we can't be sure for now. I'll hang on to this. (By this time, both men had finished their meals, still looking over to the table filled with senshi. Gerrard and Ignus put the money for the bill on the table)
Gerrard:  (looked before he went out the door) Just one?
Ignus: No! (Ignus grabbed him by the coat and whipped him out the door, carrying the orb with them)
Dana:  (Also finished her meal and smiled as the waiter took her plate and payment. Standing up, she put on her coat and walked out, passing Gerrard and Ignus on her way to the nearest bus station. She shivered as the cold weather finally struck her and she wrapped her arms around herself and pulled her thin coat tight) Chilly out here.
Asuka: (Smiled and nodded to Lady Culex as she disappeared. She looked to Meian and EMoon, the latter of course still stuffing her face with the large amount of food she ordered, and with a tilt of the head and a wink of the eye she said) I too shall be leaving. I've someone to find. You two have a lovely meal. (With that, she took her purse and stood up to leave, putting enough money on the table to pay for herself and Meian, but falling short of EMoon's order)
Meian:(stretches and gets up) I'm tired as well. Here's the money for my food (she says and puts down money with the other and looks at EMoon) You're going to have a BIG stomachache tonight (she said and walked out of the restaurant)

~Back on the Street~
Setsuna: (Scans the streets for any suspicious vibes and an apartment complex as she walks down the busy streets. She then thinks to herself) Good, I don't sense any evil vibrations right now... but I'm going to keep my guard up just in case. (She sighs with relief as she walks by the Crown Cafe then slows to a stop in front of the cafe window) Hmmm... I think I'll stop in for a cup of tea real quickly then I'll continue on. (She smiles a small smile to herself as she opens the door,  steps inside, and sits at a booth by the front window where she's approached by a waiter) A cup of tea please. (The waiter nods and walks away and she looks outside the window) The days here are still beautiful as always.... (She unshoulders her purse and places it to her left on the seat just as the waiter returns and places a tea cup filled with steaming hot tea, some milk and sugar, and a spoon in front of her) Arigato. (The waiter again nods and walks away as she begins to prepare her tea to her liking, adding a little sugar and a little milk then she stirs it altogether with her spoon) Perfect... just how I like it. (She places her spoon on the side if her saucer, picks up the cup, and takes a sip) Ahh, nice and hot. (She placed the cup back on the saucer)

~At the Park~
Ayekanaru: I sense strong energy on this planet. (she thought to herself) Where can I land my ship? (the girl was flying a spaceship no bigger than herself over Juuban park. Seeing a lake, she decided to land on it, but instead she clumsily landed on a rock and her ship began to sink) Help! (she cried, as her ship fell apart and sank to the bottom) Ahh! I cannot swim!
Evil Setsuna: (walking through the park, said to herself) Dude this is soooo boring! There is nothing to do!! I've allready maxed out my brother's card, seen a movie and scared some little kids. (looks at her watch) Oh, time to go home. Maybe tomorow will be beter.

~At the Bus Stop~
Ignus & Gerrad:(walked towards the bus stop where the girl had gone Ignus was still observing the orb that he had found while Gerrard watched the girl at the stop)
Gerrard: Hmmm......
Ignus: Hey dude?
Gerrard:(Didn't respond)
Ignus: Gerrard? 
Gerrard: (Stared ahead)
Ignus: (smacked him on the head) Dude! 
Gerrard: (snapped out of it) What? 
Ignus: I think this is a magic item. 
Gerrard: Why is that? 
Ignus: Well, by its size and shape, I'm gonna try and say...
Gerrard: (heard Ignus's voice carrying off. He just stared at her in awe)
Dana: (Waved at the bus that was coming into view whilst it made it's way down the street. She smiled and clutched a coat closer and taking a step forward, standing at the edge of the curb, wanting to make sure that the bus driver saw her. As it came nearer and the driver tipped his hat, noting her presence, she stepped back and brushed her frindge out of her eyes. Yes, it was time to go home and warm up with a nice cup of tea. The bus finally stopped in front of Dana and the doors opened to show the welcoming driver. When she remembered she had to pay, Dana grabbed her purse and began digging around feverishly for money, holding up a finger to the pleasantly patient driver as she searched for any yen she may have left)
Gerrard & Ignus:(stepped on after Dana. Ignus payed his money and so did Gerrard. But before Gerrard sat down, he saw Dana rummaging throuhg her purse for money)
Gerrard: (He dug into his pocket and payed for her fee as well) There you go
Dana: Oh thank you, so much! (She chimed, smiling as she stepped in and took the first seat on the opposite side of the driver. And stared out the window, a smile on her face. People were so nice here. And it was nice and warm on the bus too. Too cold outside) I think a cup of tea will most definately be need once home. (Dana said to herself with a happy sigh; yes, her own home. Life was good. If only she could remember the rest of it)
The orb: (begins to shine dimly, a vivid cerulean color, in between Ignus's fingers)
Asuka: (As she left the restaurant, Asuka noted people getting on a bus; but other than that, the streets were quiet. A calm, yet warm look on her face she began to walk down the street, passing the cafe where Setsuna and many other senshi were. At the moment, Asuka couldn't be bothered with them; she really did have to find Wusheng/ESaturn)

~Meanwhile~
Sunny: (after siting outside for along time thinking, finally started to walk home) Man,well, If it was really inportain then Larf will call me, right? (she said to herself. She was trierd and wanted to go to sleep when she got back)

~Back at the Warehouse~
Chase: (suddenly senses something at the park) Excuse me a minute will you? (he jumps up into the tree and starts jumping trees and buildings all the way to a tree near the pond. He sees a girl drowning in the pond and pulls out his bow in cyrstal form again.. holding the arrow in the other hand he whispers) Climbing Rose Vines.. (a green vine attaches to the arrow and he shoots it next to the girl in the pond, as the vine branches out and grabs hold of the girl, he snaps his fingers and the vines come back to him pulling the girl out and next to the tree) Hey miss, are you all right there? 
Ayekanaru: (stood up and bowed) Y-yes, thank you very much sir. (She quivered from being wet and cold)
Chase: (looks at the girl shivering from being cold) Uh.. well, do you want to come back with me? I was with some other people.. but I don't know if they have anything to get you dry or not?
Ayekanaru: (Was at a loss for words, but then said) Yes, take me to your people. (She waited for Chase to carry her)

~At the Cafe~ 
Megan: (looks at Chei and Lei and decides she's had enough of th silence) Ok then... (grabs them both by the arm) You can tell me what to look for as a signal on the way there.. (she smiles as she almost pulls the two down the aile to the others) Okies, mina! Finish up your food, because we're getting ready to go after Komodo now.
Jessie: (blinks a few times and then jumps up out of her seat) Really? We're going after him now?
Hotaru: (nods slightly and looks toawrds Megan, Chei, and Lei) So you know where it is we can find him?
Makoto: We have a plan for this too?
Megan: (nods) Yup! Long story short.. I got this letter from a strange guy for these two (pulls up Chei and Lei) so I showed it to them.. and they think it was from him, and it told us to go to the Harbor.. uhh.. (looks at Chei and Lei) What pier was it again? And we have a plan too! They are supposed to come alone, so the rest of us will wait till it's time to attack.. which i may i add i'm still waiting to here what i should look for.
Ben: (looked up when Megan said they were ready to go) Ah good. Then I'll get the cheque and we can be off. (When the waiter brought the cheque over however, Ben and Demi both gaped at the cost of the food, half of which had been eaten by Usagi) How does your friends ever afford to feed those two?! (he thought to himself, but paid the bill anyways)
Setsuna: (Leans back in her against the back of the booth as she watches the large group of senshi in the back of the cafe and she smiles to herself) They haven't changed a bit... (picks up her tea cup and takes another sip of her tea) Hopefully if they sense my vibrations here on Earth I could help them in their mission.... (Takes another sip of her tea and sets the cup back down)
Jessie: (blinks considering what Megan told the group for a few moments) Umm, just out of curiosity, where are we supposed to wait? I can't very well imagine we'd all be hiding out behind buildings near the harbor, that would be too obvious.
Hotaru: (glances around the cafe, sensing a familar energy. She scans the entire area, eventually spotting Setsuna. She stares at the older
girl for a few moments, then turns to the rest of the group) I'll be right back (She then heads off towards where Setsuna is sitting)
Usagi: (blinks a few times, as she stares at Ben. She then puts her hand behind her head and starts to laugh nervously) Gomen, Ben!! I didn't realize I ate so much.... I'd help to pay, demo sa... I kinda am broke!
Setsuna: (Glances away from the window and as she begins to take another sip of her tea, she notices Hotaru approaching the booth, sets her teacup down and smiles)
Megan: (blinks) Ano.. they never told me that? (she looks at the two she still has on her arms) Where are we supposed to hide?
Ben: It's alright. Guess I'll have to dip into my savings a bit, but I can still pay it.

~On the Street~
Pots: (trotted behind Michiru. He looked up to her and saw her in deep thought. Pots could sense wat she was thinking, but he wasn't sure how) Miss your friends huh? I bet your partner especially. You two were pretty close huh?
Michiru: (Still looking forward towards the alley, she nodded in response to Pots' question. A second later when Michiru arrived at the corner, she spotted the black violin case lined with silver at the openings. In the middle was a black handle and two silver latches at the sides. She held a smile of relief and picked it up carefully by the handle) I'm glad nobody noticed enough to pick it up. (Turning back to Pots, she said) Do you want to go back, or take a walk around the city? I can show you some places if you want.

~At the Warehouse~
Rad: (looked at his watch) Well, time for a skating round. I think I'll check out that new cafe. Sounds fun. (He looked at Hikari) Sorry to be so abrupt but I must take a bit of a leave. (He slipped on his coat, grabbed hi boom box, and slipped on his blades) Till we meet again! (He turned on the boom box and he skated out the door and onto the street)

~At the Park~
Chase: (looks at the girl and jokenly says) You must watch a lot of sci-fi movies, you sound like the typical alien in those.. (then he smiles) Just a sec there lemme see if they are still there otherwise I might have to take you somewhere else.. (He jumps back off to the warehouse but seeing that the only ones left were the ones who didn't live there, he goes back to the park) Change of plans there.. (jumps down by her) they seemed to have left, so I guess we'll have to stop another place. That ok, or are you in a hurry?
Ayekanaru: My how he jumps. (she thought) I am in no hurry, another place shall be all right.
Chase: Ok then.. (he picks her up) Hang on.. (he jumps back onto the tree and then continues building by building till he reaches a medium size house and lands on the roof, where he sets her down) Wait here please.. (he jumps down to the front of the house)
Ayekanaru: (waited on the roof, feeling wet, lost and confused) My poor Ryu-oh, (she thought) Am i stranded here forever?

~At the Tsukino Residence~
Mamoru/Tiamatt:  Well then, I guess I'll just have to... take you then! (A black expression comes over Usagi's mother and the two of them are transported back to Tiamatt's castle. Usagi's mom is now in a black cage made of bones and Tiamatt is back to himself. He says to Galaxia) Well, that was easier than squashing babies.  How are you coming along?
Lady Culex: (finally arriving within Tiamatt's lair, observes Tiamatt talking with Galaxia) Master Tiamatt! You've returned! And I notice you've brought back a souvenir... (she points over to the cage)
Galaxia: (looks over at Ikuko Tsukino, then at Tiamatt) While you were gone, one of my former minions, Lead Crow, returned (She waves her hand in Lead Crows direction) and I was explaining to her what is happening. (She walks over to the cage and stares at Ikuko for some more) How many more people will you need before we the lure into senshi into this trap?
Tiamatt: (gives an evil grin at Lady Culex, as though he didn't think they'd expect anything else, then looks back to Galaxia) I believe just those of the inner senshi will be needed, after that then they will be too flustered to think straight. At that point, we offer them an exchange.... their freedom for their families' lives. Of course, fulfilling that will entail a bit more than they'll imagine.......

~At Orchyre~
Sonnet: (looks at her) You want to end up like Minu? (grins) You know I wouldn't hurt you. It's Minu I want revenge on. Now if you were smart you'd get out of here. (grabs her face and flings her aside) Where was I? (grabs Minu and makes a sword appear) I see you and Minu have a weird connection... here's the deal. Tell me what you want in that throne room... or I'll kill her... and her little friend.
Archer: .........You won't get away with this Sonnet.
Momo: (getting up slowly and looking at him with somewhat pity) I'm sorry Sonnet..... (takles him and umm...."kisses" him which in turn drains him of some of his power but not all of it. Silently a tear rolls down her cheek as she is consumed by a silvery orb)
Archer: (stands still. Seeing how everyone was down he vanished)
Minu: (slowly opens her eyes to see Sonnet on the ground) Sonnet?
Momo: (emerges from the orb with a silver dress that goes down to her knees. She now is holding a saber in her hands, looking like she's ready to kill) Archer! I know where you are, you know there's no use in hiding from me. (looks at Minu) Take care of Sonnet if he gets up.... I'm gonna get Archer. (dissapears)
Archer: (appears in a requien place. He searches for what he came for) I need a sacrifice... Minu and Sonnet.
Momo: (appears in front of Archer) Hold it there bucko, your not going anywhere. (stares at his confused face) Oh, you don't remember me? Stupid boy. Sooo, wheres a girl supposed to find Requiem in this place? Huh ,huh, do you know?
Archer: I will only ask once. Get out of my way or you too will end up my sacrifice.
Voice: I don't think so... (Sonnet stands beside Momo, holding Minu in his arms) What you want is mine.... I need it. More than any of you. (drops Minu in front of Momo) Come on, Archer. You want to fight?
Archer: I'll kill you all! 
Momo: (stands in front of both of the guys) ok... get this through your heads... what you both want is mine... and only mine okay... got it... good. Anyway... I need to chat with Requiem, does anyone know where he is?
Sonnet: Shut up women! The whereabouts of my father in none of your bus--
Archer: Okay. Fine. You want him. I'll summon him!
Sonnet: I won't fall for your tricks! He'll destroy me!
Archer: That's the point....
Momo: (slaps Sonnet HARD) Don't you dare call me woman ever again. At this point I am stronger than any of you in this room so don't tell me what to do. And for the record I know that you couldn't summon Requiem even if you wanted to, you're too weak.
Sonnet: (slapped) ....... (He growls with anger as he draws a dagger. He stabs it at Momo when Minu awakes in his arms with red eyes and stops him, twisting his arm so hard a loud crack was heard. He drops her) AAAAAH! It's you! Sailor Vision!
Archer: It's you..... I can't let you live.

~At the Cafe~
Hotaru: (smiles slightly at Setsuna and sits down by her) I thought it was you.. Setsuna, what are you doing sitting over here by yourself?
Setsuna: Oh nothing much, just having a cup of tea before I find a place to stay... (Sighs) I could feel the ESenshi's vibs down here so I came to help you guys with battles against them.
Evil Setsuna: (still bord, thinks) I am not going back yet. I mean why go back now (walks down the street) Hey! That looks good! (She stood outside the cafe then walked in, and shook her head) Man, it in't normaly this packed (she said to herself siting down)
Hotaru: (sighs slightly) Then you don't know? There is more then the ESenshi to deal with. Galaxia, herself, has returned, possesed once more by Chaos. There are also many new enemies, including one named Komodo, whom I believe we are planning to attack soon.

~While~
Sunny: (gets home and walkes over to the phone, hoping that Larf had called, but seeing none she sighed and said) My does he do this to me, runs off acting like it was the end of the world or something.
Hikari: (Since everyone seemed to have something else to do or somewhere else to be at the moment Hikari began walking away from the warehouse and back to the city) Sheesh I am soooooo bored! If something doesn't happen soon I'm going to die or something like that.
Sunny: (still sits by the phone then.... it rings) Hello... that's good,you scared me back there... what... ya... see you then... bye. (She hangs up the phone and get's ready for bed)

~At the House~
Chase: (notices the door to the house is locked, he pulls out a key for his pocket and opens the door) Hello? Anyone home? (he wanders about the house then walks back outside and jumps back onto the roof) Ok miss, looks like no one is home so I can take you inside the house. (he picks her up and jumps back down infront of the house and takes her inside setting her on teh stairs as he closes and locks the door again) 
Ayekanaru: (looked around and then sat down. She took off her shoes and put them at the bottom of the stairs, and since her tabi were all wet, she took them off too) He did not ask me yet, (she thought) but I would not want to be rude, (she stood up) Please sir, may I ask who you might be, and what I may call you?
Chase: (puts his now normal looking archary set away in a nearby closet and looks at the girl, still not to sure what to make of her) All I'll tell you for right now is that my name is Chase. Chase Rose to be exact. (walks behind her up the stairs) Come on follow me. I'll get you some clothes to wear so we can dry your off.
Ayekanaru: (followed Chase, holding up the edge of her dress so as not to trip) I am very pleased to make your acquaintance Rose-san, my name is Ayekanaru... Himemiya.
Chase: Ah, nice to meet you Himemiya-san. (Walks into his bedroom and goes through his drawers) Sorry, about this Himemiya-san but unfortunetly the only girl like clothes I could steal from around the house without getting caught wouldn't fit you. So you'll have to wear some of my clothes. (he pulls out a pair of jeans and a blue fleece sweat shirt, and hands them to her) The bathroom is right here. (he points to the next room) Change in there and bring your wet clothers downstairs so i can hang them up to dry. If you need me I'll be downstairs making you some hot tea to drink. (he goes downstairs)
Ayekanaru: (after drying and changing in the bathroom, she walked out holding her wet obi, dress, underdress, and ribbons in one hand, and the waist band of the jeans in the other hand. With a towel still on her head, she walked downstairs to look for Chase) The boy clothes are too big, Rose-san.
Chase: Oh no, I was afraid this might happen.. Gomen.. (sighs) Looks like I will have to sneak soemting out fo mom's closet then for you since my clothes won't fit, and the only other girl's clothes are my little sisters and their too small.. (He takes he back upstairs and goes into his parents room where he finds a casual red dress of his mothers and brings it out to her) Does this look liek it will fit you better Himemiya-san?
Ayekanaru: (looks at the dress) I am afraid not, Rose-san. Ano, your little sister... how old is she? I am rather small for my age, maybe her clothes will fit me after all. (she thought) These clothes are so rough, I cannot stand it.
Chase:  (puts the dress back) Ahh.. she's about four year old.. (he looks at her questionly) Can you fit in a four year old's clothes? 
Ayekanaru: No, I suppose not. (She sadly looked down at the jeans she was wearing)
Chase: Gomen.. ah, but do you think a belt will work.. just until your clothes are dry?
Ayekanaru: A belt? Alright... (her stomach growled and she looked up at Chase with a surprised expression on her face)
Chase: (smiles and goes into his room to get a belt, he comes out with one and hands it to her) I'm not that great of a cook.. but if you like once your clothes are dry i can take you out somplace to eat.
Ayekanaru: (winds the belt around her waist and ties it into a knot) Good, I am hungry. (hands her clothes over to Chase) May I have the tea now? (she asked eagerly as she sat down to roll up the jeans so as not to drag them around)
Chase: (smiles) Hai hai.. Just wait in the living room I'll get it once I hang these up.. (He goes downstairs and out to the small backyard to hang up he clothes on the line to dry)
Ayekanaru: (She went to the living room to wait) I wonder if by any chance Rose-san knows something about my brother's whereabouts.
Chase: (comes back in, and goes into the kitchen and brings the tea out into the living room, he sets it down on the table and takes a seat) Himemiya-san.. I have a question.. what were you doing in the lake, if you can't swim?
Ayekanaru: (takes a seat and reaches for her tea) I fell in.. it was an accident.. thank you again for saving me, Rose-san. (picks up her tea) I lost my brother, you see, and I thought he was in that park...
Chase: (takes a drink of his tea) I see.. you must be worried about him terribly. I would be too if my sister Myna was missing.
Ayekanaru: I hope he's alright. (she sipped more of her tea) Excuse me, but I will go pick some flowers. (she stood up and went upstairs)
Chase: (looks confused as she went upstairs because the garden was in the backyard) Was it something I said? (he thinks out loud as he puts the tea set away)

~Back at the Cafe~
Ben: (As the others get ready to go, Ben looks back at Hotaru and Setsuna talking, then turns to the senshi) I'll be right there, just want to check a few more things first.... (When they had gone, Ben walked over to Hotaru. Once a break in the conversation came around, he tapped the black-haired girl on the shoulder lightly) Can I talk to you for a moment, in private?
Hotaru: (nods slightly and looks at Setsuna) Hold on one minute, Setsuna. I'll be back. (She then faces Ben) Where do you want to talk
and about what?
Hikari: (continued walking but she felt another senshi aura as she walked past Hotaru, Ben, and Setsuna) Oh well, not going to worry about it now. After all there isn't really anything threatening so why go Senshi chasing. (Continues walking past, flipping a piece of her pure white hair away from her face as she walked)
Ben: Over here will be fine... (Ben said as he moved to a corner stall, out of earshot of the others. He pulled a small leather bag out of his coat and handed it to Hotaru) I want you to have this.... (was all he said, but the look on his face said that it wasn't meant as a gift)
Michiru: (Not bothering to wait for Pots' reply, she decided to waltz into the cafe because she thought she had seen a certain green-haired woman enter just a few moments ago. Upon entering the cafe for another time that day, Michiru was glad to see that her instincts were right: there sat Setsuna in the booth that she always sat in whenever the outer senshi went for drinks in the cafe. Smiling and pushing a stray strand of hair behind her ear, she approached the woman sipping at her tea) Long time no see, Setsuna-san.
Pots: (Walked behind Michiru and stayed pretty near her heels, letting the wafting aromas enter his nostrils)
Hotaru: (stares at the bag and takes it from Ben, then looks at him) Care to explain what this is about?
Ben: (Inside the bag lies what looks like a silvery, fingerless glove with a large emerald on the back of it.  It feels and moves like silk, but looks and acts like steel) Remember how I said that the shadow warrior in me is being held at bay? Well, what I couldn't say in front of the others was that lately it's been getting stronger. I don't know how long I can contain it if it keeps on pushing. If worse comes to worse, I want you to stop me by whatever means necessary. (he looks over at Demi, who's waiting with the others outside) I can't ask Demi, she'd hesitate because of her feelings. You're the only one I can trust with this. That glove can give you the strength to do it, and will also give you armor similar to what Demi and I have when we transform.
Hotaru: (stares at Ben for a few moments then nods slightly) I'll do what you request, only if it's absolutely necessary. But maybe you
should talk with my princess first. I don't think she, or Chibiusa, would be pleased if you were to die. (she places the back, with the glove inside, carefully into her pocket and closes her eyes) Those two.. they're the type that would even try and help the enemy if they thought they were really good at heart.
Chibiusa: (finally finishes her fifth ice cream sundae. She then, hearing Hotaru mentioning her name smiled at her and then ran up to the counter for her sixth ice cream sundae)
Ben: (sighed) Yeah, I know... that's why I couldn't ask them. (Ben looked straight into Hotaru's eyes with his one red eye, boring into them) You have to promise me that you will kill me, regardless of what your princess says or orders you to do!

~Meanwhile On the Streets~
Akina: (otherwise known as Card Mistress, was walking down the street reading some Geography textbook she found) What is this junk!?! I don't understand why these earth people have to learn this. It's ssssssssssssooooooooo boring around on earth. I think I should just use my cards, summon a powerful monster to kill all these pathetic humans, and go home.
Hikari: (walked past Akina, not really paying attention to her but she suddenly felt a strange surge of energy as she past. She says to herself) What was that? (She turned to glance at Akina with a quizzical look but continued walking, not wanting anyone to get suspicious)
Akina: (noticed Hikari being able to feel her power, but she never actually cared) Maybe I should let my monster have a little fun today. They could destroy a part of city, just for fun of course. (rushes to an alley and tranforms into the Card Mistress and gets up onto a high building) This is the perfect place. (takes to card out of her pocket and chants) monsters of another world, I summon you to do my bidding. Your mistress calls opon you. COME FORTH MY PETS OF DESTURUCTION! I CALL OPON MUKKURA, THE MONSTER OF WIND!!!
Rad: (speed down the streets with his boom box slamming tunes down. He was trying to find out where the earthquake had come from. He wheeled around the corner and started to skate backwards. Then he hit someone. He tumbled over himself and landed on his blades just barely. He turned around to see Hikari and a women he had never seen before. She was going to summon something of the like) Oh lord. You need some help, kid?
Card Mistress: (got up, inraged with Rad. No one would ever do that back home. She chants) Makkura! Come forth and kill this pathetic human who decides to even come in physical contact with me.
Rad: (backed up a bit and stared) You on your cycle or something man? That's pretty bad! (An orange light surrounded Rad. He transformed to Heavy Metal and drew his battle staff) Bring it!
Card Mistress: (drew out her magic sword) Allow me to introduce myself. I am the Card Mistress. Now, you can either give up or I will make your death painful and slow. I have no time for this, but I will have much fun with it. Makkura, blow him away with you powerful wind attacks.
Heavy Metal: I'm Heavy Metal! I don't fear you or your big cronie! (Heavy Metal braced himself for powerful wind attacks)

~Back At Timatt's Lair~
Lady Culex: So Master Tiamatt what are you planning to do next!
Tiamatt: (smiling evily again) Now now m'lady... I said we had to get all five of the families. Right now, we only have one. That still leaves four to go before we're done...

~Back at the Rose Residence~
Ayekanaru: (sometime later walks back downstairs and sits down with her hands in her lap)
Chase: (Is in the backyard. Since he was frustrated, he was practing his archery some more, when he hears he come back downstairs. He calls through the open door as he continues) Hey, I'm sorry if I said something that upset you.. I just thought you would of watned to talk about it. Oh, and your clothes are dry and are sitting on the table near this back door.
Ayekanaru: (walks up to the door) You have not said anything that upset me, Rose-san. Why would you think that? (she picks up her clothes) And... what did you want to talk about?
Chase: (still praticing as he talks) I don't know.. Maybe your sudden running off.. It made me think I did something wrong and I don't really have anything to talk about. I just said I thought you just wanted to talk about it.. you seemed troubled and I just wanted to help.
Ayekanaru: I said I would go to pick flowers and... I appreciate your wanting to help me, Rose-san. (she went upstairs to change into her dry clothes)

~In the park~
A girl: (is sitting in the tree) She was here... I bet her family misses her, (she teleports to the ground) I guess I better find her then. (she heads out of the park)

~Back At the Cafe~
Pots: (felt something. He nipped at Michiru's heel) Rad is in trouble! We gotta help him!
Michiru: (looked down at Pots and nodded. Then she turned her attentions back to Setsuna with a disappointed look) There's trouble with a friend. I'll meet up with you later, Setsuna-san. (Looking back to Pots, she exited out of the door)

~Back on the Street~
Card Mistress: Heavy Metal. Pleasure to meet you. You should save you energy. Makkura is one of my strongest cards. And I will be attacking you as well. (Card Mistress takes a blow right at Heavy Metal while he's being distracted by her monster)
Heavy Metal: (raised his gauntlet and stopped the sword before it hit. While blocking the sword, he hurled a large explosion at the monster, engulfing it in a monstorous explosion. He turned back to the Card Mistress) Now that wasn't very nice! (Heavy Metal swung his gauntlet away, along with the sword, and dove into the ground, burrowing deep)
Card Mistress:  (forgot all about Heavy Metal worried about her monster being hurt) Oh Makkura, are you hurt? My little Makkura is all beat up. Go back in your card, baby. I'll let someone else even the odds for me. (Makkura disappears back in her card and the Card Mistress takes out five more. She chants) Alahya! Kaishi! Kaosu! Gouka! Satsu! COME FORTH TO ME!!! (Five monster appeared out of nowhere. All of them gigantic. She looks around) Where are you, Heavy Metal? Are you scared? Come out or I start to kill inoccent people
Heavy Metal: (cut through soil like butter. Dodging pipes, and bits of cement, he changed his direction in mid thought, he flew towards the surface) Burrowing uppercut! (Heavy Metal berthed the surface right in front of the Card Mistress, delivering a staggering uppercut to the chin of the Card Mistress)
Card Mistress: (Was able to doge Heavy Metal, but got a cut on the side of her cheek) How dare you cut my face!?! Monsters, attack Heavy Metal with full force. Prepare to die, Heavy Metal. (The Card Mistress and her five monsters charged right at Heavy Metal with full force)
Heavy Metal: (twirled his staff with utmost skill. But when the monsters charged, a large silvery wall appeared in front of him. Wings floated down beside him, sword and shield drawn) You took your sweet time, didn't you? 
Wings: You know me.
Wings & Heavy Metal: (hid behind the wall, weapons drawn)
Heavy Metal: Did you bring help? 
Wings: Neptune. She should be here momentarily.
Heavy Metal: After this I'll polish her violin for a week.
Card Mistress:  (stepped back a bit, looking at Wings and Heavy Metal. Panting for air since summoning all these monsters and keeping them their took alot of energy) Enough chit chat! *pant* I *pant* have *pant* no time *pant* for talk. Less talk, more kills! Monsters, I think you'll need even more help. (The Card Mistress took out five more cards and summoned even more monsters) I will not be beaten by anyone. (thinking) I can't keep my monsters here much longer. They take up my life force and a can hardly keep standing. But if I must beat them at all costs. Even if I die.
Sirius: I don't think so ILLUSION MIST! (A thick, cold mist filled the area around Heavy Metal, Wings and Card Mistress and Hikari, now Sailor Sirius, stepped into the Card Mistress's view) I'm Sailor Sirius the Senshi of Illusions, here to make your worst nightmares reality! (Stands in a defensive stance with her staff held in both hands)
Card Mistress: Well, the more of you come, the more I get to kill. Monsters, destroy them!!! (The Card Mistress was very weak now because of all of summons. She was ready to colasp at any second. She mumbled under her breath) So... weak... need... life force...
Neptune: (A glowing blue beam shot towards one of the monsters. Coming up from behind the Card Mistress, she wrapped one arm around her neck, the other hand clutching her Deep Aqua Mirror) Having trouble? (she called to Heavy Metal and Wings)
Card Mistress: Let go of me!!! (The Card Mistress took another card out. This one was much different than others. She chants) Card of Magic!!! Give me your power!!! I command you!!! Touch Drain!!! (The Card Mistress started to laugh manically as her hand glowed) It was a bad idea to even touch me. This card drains the life force of anyone who even thouches me, making me able to keep my monsters here fr as long as possible. Monsters, destory them, but leave Heavy Metal for me.
