"Mrs. Kumada. Please let us see Hiouko," asked Nintai. Rei had a sad look. "I'm thankful for you coming here, but she's pretty depressed, I don't know if she can handle visitors." Mizumi and Umi looked at each other. They always felt they had to be closer to Hiouko that they were, she didn't had much friends. Her closest friend was actually a boy. "Aunt Rei, she'll be glad to see me." Rei looked at the serious looking Takashi, who was holding Kirame's hand. "Just a minute, ok?" whispered Rei. They entered to Hiouko's room and saw her sleepy in her bed. "Hiouko," said the couple at once. The rest of the team started leaving moments later. Only Mizumi and Umi stayed to help Rei out. Kin-kun and Suiko left in the blonde guy's motorcycle. They got home a minute later. "It's was really lucky that you were in the palace." "Michiru had sent this dress for Mitsuki and I was just leaving it. Though, Hiouko should have been helped by some Moon Senshi. The royal family was there and no one reacted." "They were shocked. That fire came from nowhere." Suiko sat in a chair. "They told what happened. Apparently Hiouko had come to prevent the Queen about the arrival of an evil energy." "And it backfired to her." Suiko nodded and touched Kin-kun's face. "I'm worried about that. I don't want anything to happen to you." "It won't, and I'll protect you." They kissed. The bell rang and Suiko went to open it, leaving a loving Kin-kun. Megu was at the door. "Come in." "We had a band practice, remember?" The three had a band together. "Right," said Kin-kun getting up. "By the way, could we dedicate a song to Hiouko in our next show?" Suiko smiled. "That's a good idea." Nintai was walking by Ryuu's arm. "Ryuu..." "Yes?" "What happened to Hiouko..." "A terrible thing." "It was my fault," she cried. Ryuu stopped. "What?" "I had felt that evil energy before... but I was afraid of telling. It should have been me the one who lost her sight." Ryuu took her hand. "Don't blame yourself... That won't help." "If I had talked first, me, and not Hiouko would be blind now." Ryuu smiled at her. "I would have liked that?" Nintai gave him a horrified look. "Why?" "Then, I'll have been your eyes." She leaned to him. "You fool..." Mrs. Hotaru and Mitsuki came nearby. "Nintai?" She smiled to her sister. "Hotaru? What's up?" "We can't find Kage. He had a tailor appointment." Ryuu raised his eyes. "What for?" "His suit for my birthday," cried Mitsuki, "but we can't find him anywhere since yesterday." Kage Shiouno was a mysterious boy. He had been the first to be covered by power, and the one closest to Chaos when she came back. He had never been the same since that day, but Mitsuki's sweet character had comforted him ever since. But now he was in doubt of himself. He hadn't gone to school after going to Hiouko's. Kage just wandered through the woods. "Was it me?" he repeated in himself. "Did I hurt Hiouko?" He knew he had no recollection of what he was doing in the moment Hiouko was attacked by the fire. He always had these lagoons in his mind and that worried him. Maybe he was a danger to others, the dreams of darkness he had... "That day, when Chaos was defeated, a part of her entered in me... Mother feels it, I know by the way she looks at me." "Hey!" cried a voice. Kage looked at Ken, who was in his Neo-Juuban High School uniform. "What's up, Kage? You look worried." "Oh, the whole deal with Hiouko upsets me." "Yeah, it's terrible. Though, I have good news. Mizumi is going out with me." Kage raised an eyebrow. "Really? I though she and Akashi had something going on..." Ken's face hardened. "Certainly not, otherwise she wouldn't have accepted." "I guess." Mitsuki appeared through some bushes. "There you are, Kage! Aunt Hotaru and I have been looking for you. We had an appointment, remember?" Kage smiled at her. "Right, I'm sorry." Mitsuki's face was so full of love, and Kage couldn't say anything to her. What will she do if he told her he had evil inside? Kage and Mitsuki (disguised), Akuji, Ken and Niji entered a hippest club in Crystal Tokyo. The couple started dancing right after they had gotten a table. Akuji was starting to look for a dance partner when Megu appeared in front of him. "Want to dance?" "What are you doing here?" "I came with Nintai and Suiko. But they are dancing with their boyfriends, so I came to ask you out." Akuji smiled to her and too her hand. "Let's dance, then." Three dark meteors fell in the woods. The meteors dissolved, leaving the person inside them free. "Run, sisters! They are coming..." cried a male voice. The three fugitives ran away. Minutes later three shooting stars crossed the sky and got in the place the meteors had been. "They have hidden..." whispered a sharp voice. "We'll find them. The Queen will help us." A third voice answered. "But we don't know them..." Akuji and Megu started dancing a slow song. "You know, Megu, you are incredible beautiful." Megu rolled her eyes. "You are amazingly handsome." "Since we were kids I always looked at you as some precious jewel unreachable." "I'm right here now." They kissed. Three people entered the club: a man and two girls. The three of them had long black hair and silver eyes. The girls had their hair in ponytails. The man was dressed in a blue suit. The youngest girl had wavy hair and had a red dress. The other one had a similar dress that went through green and yellow. They looked at the couple with fascination. Nintai and Ryuu were dancing close to Megu. Suddenly Nintai raised her head. "Ryuu..." She stood still and started to look for something, as her hair started to float. "Something is really close now..." Kage turned his head. He and Mitsuki were having some drinks. "Is something wrong, Kage?" His eyes traveled all over the place, in alert. "I thought... No, I'm imaging things..." "Sister," whispered the new arrival in red dress, "I want to have fun of that couple." Her sister smiled evilly. "They are so cute, but they just know each other... Spice up that people, take them to the next step..." Both twisted their fingers looking at Megu and Akuji. Instantly, their kiss went deeper. "Let's go somewhere else, Megu." "Sure..." They disappeared from the club. Hours later, Nintai and Suiko entered the girls' room. "Megu!" cried Nintai. "I can't find her anywhere," cried Suiko. They went out, where Kin-kun and Ryuu looked worried. "Nothing?" "She isn't here." Ryuu hid his face in his hands. "Mother will kill me. How can she go by herself." Nintai smelled the air, in concern. "I have this feeling... That energy that I felt..." she thought. Mitsuki sighed and opened her eyes. It was morning and she was in her soft bed. She dressed up and ran to the throne room, where her mother and grandmother were talking. "You came late yesterday," said Usagi, her mother, when she saw her. "I had so much fun, Mom. All the Outer and Lost Senshi were there, and the music was so fun. I dance till I was exhausted." Serenity smiled. "I'm glad you all are having fun together." A maid came in. "Three Sailor Senshi are asking for you, your Majesty." Serenity got a strange look. "Who are they?" Three silhouettes came forward, and the maid turned, angry. "I told you to wait outside. But Serenity had already seen them, and had stood up. Sailor Star Fighter, Sailor Star Maker and Sailor Star Healer had come back to Earth. "Seiya..." whispered Serenity. The Sailor Starlight touched their star brooch and then turned to their male forms. "Seiya!" cried Serenity hugging the former Sailor Star Fighter. "Odango..." Serenity had started to cry. The maid saw the Queen was pleased, so left the room. The Queen left Seiya and looked at his companions. "Taiki, Yaten. It's been so long, ever since I got married. But you haven't changed a bit." Yaten smiled arrogantly. "We are eternal Senshi, Serenity, we don't age," Seiya looked at the Princesses. "Who are those beauties?" "This is my daughter: Princess Usagi Lady Serenity and this is my granddaughter: Princess Mitsuki Small Lady Serenity." "Hello," said both. Princess Usagi came forward. "Are you really the legendary Sailor Starlight? I've heard so much about you." "We are," said Taiki laughing. Seiya continued to look at Usagi with tenderness. "You have become a grandmother..." "For sixteen years, Seiya, But, how come you are here? I'm sure the current Kinmoku princess needs you by her side." The boys' faces darkened. "It's a dark business," said Yaten. "Sailor Galaxia, Sailor Iris and Sailor Janus, the three Universal Guardians, called us to help them get three galactic fugitives: The Discordia Gang. They are three mean siblings. We followed their meteor-capsules up to here, but we lost them when they reached Earth." "Are they dangerous?" Seiya looked at them seriously. "They are siblings who can control the emotions of other people. They know how they feel and can play with them at wish. Ares is the eldest, specialist in water and violence. Belona, the second, controls wind and loves playing with jealously. Eris controls fire and passion." Mitsuki gave them a resolute look. "My team will defeat them." Princess Usagi smiled. "Our children are the new Senshi Team, and she's their leader." Taiki sat in front of the younger girl. "Mitsuki, right? You team has to be prepared, these enemies can use your own hearts to harm you." Mitsuki nodded. ""And there is a problem with Rei's kid, Mars." Yaten rolled his eyes. "What?" "She's blind. A back fire covered her and she lost her sight recently." The Three Lights looked at each other. "That may be Eris' doing. We need to talk to all the Senshi," ordered Seiya. "I'll gather them, including Mars." The Gingekko family, a.k.a. Andromeda, was all up early. Megu hadn't come home to sleep, and Umi had a strange feeling during the night. Something important had happened to her twin, but she was afraid of telling her Mom what it was. They were all in the living room when Megu opened the door. Niji and Umi looked at her unbelieving. Megumi Selene, the mother, stood up. "Where have you being?" She stared at the floor. "In Akuji's room." Ryo, the father, looked at her with rage. "How dare you to come and say such thing? You are a kid, for the Moon's sake." Megu raised her eyes. "I guess I have to honest. I spent the night with him." Megumi slapped her and left. "Mom..." Ryo gave her a disappointment face and went to look for his wife. "Megu," cried Umi hugging her twin. She was pretty upset. "Umi... I felt like I wasn't myself, really. I never intended to do this, but it was like a fire covering my heart." Ryuu smiled ironically. "I can't hear this anymore." He rushed to the door and left. The young man was minutes later at the Kai's house (Akuji'). Rika opened the door. "Ryuu..." "Where is he?" mumbled Ryuu, furious. "Ryuu," whispered Rika touching his shoulder. "I saw Megu going out this morning and Akuji's father has talked to them. I know this doesn't look good, especially because Megu is such a young girl. But my son didn't intend to harm her." Ryuu's rage faded of and looked at his Aunt with sad eyes. "I need to protect my sisters..." "I know," said Rika hugging Ryuu. She was disappointed of the ways things had happened, but in her heart, wished that Akuji and Megu worked the things out. All the Crystal Senshi Team were at a room of the palace. All except for Akuji and Hiouko. Mitsuki, in a princess gown, entered the room accompanied with her mother, grandmother and Three Lights. Suiko covered her mouth and murmured to Kin-kun. "Those are that famous old pop group, the Three Lights!" Seiya looked at all of them, figuring out who was kid of whom. "Is everyone here?" Akuji entered the room in a rush. "Sorry for being late." He sat at Niji's side, who gave him a cold look. Umi and Ryuu tried to ignore their disgust while Megu blushed intensely. Two other figures walked in, and Serenity ran to give Hiouko a chair. Then, she left with Rei, who had helped her in. "Now you can start," said Princess Usagi. Seiya gave a step forward. "Well, hello. I bet you have learned in Music Class who were are, right? The Three Lights." "See?" whispered an exited Suiko to her boyfriend. He smiled. "But, as none but the former Sailor Senshi knew, they are also the Sailor Starlight," added Usagi. Mizumi stood up while the other didn't understand. "But a Sailor Senshi must be female..." The Three Lights smiled and looked at each other. "Fighter Star Power, make-up!" "Healer Star Power, make-up!" "Maker Star Power, make-up!" The spooky transformation to Sailor Senshi left everyone with their mouths open. "That's cool. You think they can lend the things they used?" asked Kin-kun. "Why?" answered Suiko in a soft voice giving her boyfriend a weird look, "Want to be a girl?" "Of course not. But I wonder if Aunt Haruka would want to change who she is..." "Silence, please," called Star Maker. "We are here to warn you of a new danger," started Seiya. In short words they explained the arrival of the Discordia Gang and the way they used their power. Star Healer looked at the 'kids' when everyone was silent. "Who is Sailor Iris, I mean, Irina Sei's son?" Niji stood up, nervous. "It's me." Star Healer took something from her back. T was a golden sword. "This is the Rainbow Sword. She sent it for you." Niji took the sword to his seat. "Cool, Niji," said Akuji, but his friend ignored him. "Niji?" The Starlights looked to themselves. "Anyway, we have to start looking for them. We just wanted to warn you. Be really careful with them, they can use your hearts against yourselves." The three Senshi vowed and left the room with princess Usagi. Kage looked at Mitsuki. "If the Discordia Gang is who started the fire, then I may be free..." Akuji turned to Niji. "What's up with you?" "With me?" shouted Niji, "You are the one who is seducing my sister." "She's not you sister." "As f!" Niji's face was red of anger. "You know she isn't you. If you felt that way, then you wouldn't have said what you did about Umi..." Niji punched him. "Shut up!" They started fighting. Umi ran to hold Akuji and Megu got Niji. "I know you two have issues, but we have to behave," cried Megu. Hiouko stood up and walked to them. "Aren't you ashamed? We must fight the enemy, not each other." Niji looked at Akuji. "They are right, but I'll never consider you my friend again. You don't have respect for my sister and you just shout my secrets to the wind..." He left, shaking Megu off. Suiko walked to her side. "What happened between Akuji and you?" "Suiko, we..." Minutes later the room started to get empty, as everyone left. Only Hiouko, sitting in a chair remained, and Ken came to her. "Won't you leave?" "I'm waiting mother to pick me up. I guess she's distracted talking to the Queen." Ken sat at her side. "Those old broads, right?" Hiouko smiled. "I guess we'll all turn in people like them when we get older." "May be..." The blind girl turned her face Ken's. "I heard you are going out with Mizumi." "Right." Hiouko's expression changed. "She's a nice girl, but is in love with Akashi." Ken shrugged. "Then, why she accepted me?" "Maybe she wants to get him jealous." "Hiouko..." She smiled, understanding the uncomfortable tone of voice. "Ok, let's drop the subject. It's funny, you know. Before I was blind we didn't even speak." "Right." Rei came in ant took her daughter's hand. "We are leaving, Hiouko." "Bye, Ken." "See you soon, Hiouko..." To be continued...
