[TITLE SCREEN]
The fire burns higher and comes closer to the Senshi; the bottom of Sailor Mars' skirt begins to catch on fire. As she tries to put it out, Neptune throws a Deep Submerge, and the ring of fire vanishes. Neptune says, "That kind of illusion isn't going to trick us." Mars was thinking that she wasn't up to the level of Neptune.
Suddenly, a web shoots out from behind Neherenia, expands... and they are floating in emptiness. Neherenia laughs and vanishes; but as the Senshi are looking around, tendrils of hair crawl up behind Sailor Neptune and grab her ankles. She cries out and falls as the hair pulls her back towards Neherenia. Mars begins a Flame Sniper, but Neherenia pulls Neptune up and uses her as a shield. Mars pauses, holding the Flame Sniper attack and Neherenia hurls her dark lightning. Mars dodges the first one, but is knocked off her feet by the second; and the Flame Sniper arrow vanishes.
Neptune yells at her; "Fire! Have you forgotten our duty? We promised to protect the Princess." Mars has a vision of Serina walking in the blizzard. As Mars hesitates, Neherenia's hair begins to strangle Neptune. Mars is torn, seeing Serina wandering in the
blizzard, and Neptune being strangled in front of her; finally, she climbs to her feet, and begins a Flame Sniper. Neherenia taunts her, but Mars throws the attack anyway. Neptune jerks herself out of the way, and the Sniper hits Neherenia, who shatters, being
only a mirror paredory after all.
The forest reappears around them. Neptune staggers towards Mars, before collapsing into the puddle left from her Deep Submerge. Mars goes to help her, but also collapses. As they lie face-down in the water, mirrors appears, and they are drawn within.
The real Neherenia is watching in a mirror from her throne room; the view in the mirror changes, to show Serina staggering through the snow. She trips and falls face first into the snow; then climbs slowly to her feet, with a determined, "Mamo-chan..."
In Neherenia's throne room, Darean is leaning against her throne, completely mindless. Neherenia says, "Your princess is coming.." His eye shines with a golden light.
Serina struggles on, then looks down at her feet aghast; a path of flowers has appeared on the ground. As she gazes in disbelief, the snow vanishes, and she is in a sunny field, surrounded by flowers.
In a place full of ruins, Sailor Venus and Sailor Pluto are running from a pack of mirror paredory. Suddenly, they see another group in front of them, and skid to a stop; Venus' feet fly out from under her, and she lands on her butt. As she climbs to her feet, a rope-and-plank bridge appears behind them, crossing a deep chasm.
The mirror paredory draw closer, and Pluto yells at Venus. "I'll hold them off. You go. When you get to the other side, cut the bridge. You're the only one who can become the leader. If we both die, who's going to save the princess. Hurry up!"
The mirror paredory attack, and Pluto fights back, smashing several of them with her staff. Venus begins to cross the bridge carefully, while it creaks and groans under her feet.
In the field, Serina hears a voice; she looks around, and finally looks down; a dandelion is speaking to her. "Are you looking for someone?" She talks to it, and several other flowers join in the conversation. At the mention of "Neherenia's curse" the flowers shiver and appear frightened. Serina stands up, and then suddenly appears confused; there are several shots with really peculiar camera angles here. The flowers begin to giggle in a rather familiar way, and Serina's eyes gradually become vacant and pupilless.
The flowers say, "Who? Where are you going? You can stay here. Just forget everything bad."
Sailor Venus is slowly crossing the bridge; a plank breaks under her feet, and she almost falls through. As she climbs back onto the bridge, Pluto hurls a Dead Scream at the mirror paredory; they shatter, but regenerate instantly. The mirror paredory attack Sailor
Pluto, hitting her several times; Venus sees this, and charges headlong back across the bridge. She launches her Love and Beauty Shock at the mirror paredory, which shatter. Before they can reform, she grabs Pluto and they start running across the bridge, pursued by the pack of mirror paredory.
Half-way across, the bridge breaks. The mirror paredory fall into the chasm; as the Senshi fall, Venus throws her Love-Me Chain up to the top of the chasm. It catches, and she grabs Pluto's hand; the two of them dangle over the bottomless depths.
"Why did you do that?"
"How can I leave my teammate? As a leader, I order you to fight with me to protect the princess."
Their conversation is interrupted by the voice of Neherenia; they look up in horror to see Neherenia standing at the lip of the chasm, holding the end of the chain. She lets it go, and Venus and Pluto fall; as they do, mirrors appear around them. Neherenia laughs, and turns back into a mirror paredory.
The real Neherenia is in the field of flowers, gloating over the mindless Serina. She pulls back her hand, about to strike Serina; but suddenly, she is stopped by Sailor Jupiter. Jupiter throws Neherenia into the air, but since Neherenia can levitate, she isn't hurt. Jupiter tries to snap Serina out of her trance, but Neherenia taunts her.
Neherenia says, "Have you ever seen a nightmare? If it's a dream that one wants to wake up from, one will. But she's chosen to stay in her dream. She won't come out of it."
Jupiter says, "That's a lie. You're trapping Serina in a nightmare."
Jupiter charges headlong at Neherenia, misses, and falls [there's a nice up-the-skirt shot here, for the Leta-chan fans]. Jupiter gets up and throws an Oak Evolution, but the leaves fade and turn autumn colors before they hit Neherenia. Neherenia laughs evilly, and we briefly see the mirrors that have trapped the other Senshi.
Neherenia attacks with her dark lightning, knocking Jupiter down and driving a furrow in the ground. Jupiter ends up almost in Serina's lap; Serina is still oblivious. Neherenia attacks Serina with her lightning, but Jupiter leaps up and takes the attack again. They yell at each other.
Jupiter says, "She's the kind of person who will sacrifice herself for others. We all love Serina. Did you have any friends like that?"
Neherenia says, "Shut up! Shut up! Shut up!" Neherenia continued, "A friend? Don't make me laugh. I don't need one of those. I'll trap you like the others."
Neherenia screams and attacks furiously, blasting Jupiter again and again as Jupiter shields Serina. Finally, Jupiter collapses; as she does, one of her rose earrings falls off and rolls in front of Serina. A mirror appears around Jupiter, and she is trapped.
In her throne room, Neherenia is watching this in her mirror when she hears voices behind her. She turns around in shock to see Sailor Chibi- Moon and Sailor Saturn. Sailor Saturn whirls her glaive, and then holds the point a mere inch from Neherenia's throat.
Sailor Chibi-Moon is holding Darean while Sailor Saturn is holding Neherenia at glaive-point. Neherenia laughs evilly, saying Darean can never wake up, and Chibi-Moon begins to fade in and out, becoming transparent.
Neherenia says, "Do you think you made it here by yourself? You're the final pieces for me to torture the princess of the white moon."
Suddenly, Neherenia vanishes, and a blast of energy knocks Saturn across the room. Chibi-Moon continues to hold Darean, crying, "Mamo-chan, wake up.." as she fades.
Elsewhere, Luna and Diana are on a sidewalk when Artemis runs up. He gasps out something, and we see scenes from all over the city, of people trapped in mirrors, mirror shade lenses, anything reflective. Luna looks at the sky worriedly, and says, "Serina-chan..."
Serina is struggling up the stairs, forcing her way through the thorns.
Chibi-Moon is still holding Darean. "If you don't wake up, I'll disappear!" Neherenia appears in a mirror overhead, and a torrent of black lightning hits Darean in his eye. Saturn leaps in and blocks the energy with her glaive. Neherenia appears across the
room -- not in a mirror this time -- and gloats. Chibi-Moon fades some more.
Saturn says, "Then I'll have to release my power of destruction to end everything."
Neherenia says, "If you use that power, you will be destroyed too. Do it if you can."
Saturn says, "That is my destiny."
Neherenia says, "What good is that."
Saturn says, "I believe in the princess."
Saturn lifts her glaive up high, and Neherenia gives a you-wouldn't-dare sort of laugh Saturn holds firm, and Neherenia attacks. Saturn resists the attack, then her glaive begins to glow. Saturn lifts it high, then brings it down on the floor. There is a HUGE explosion, knocking down Serina on the stairs outside and destroying most of the palace.
Neherenia gets up; there is a sizable hole in the floor where Saturns glaive hit, and Chibi-Moon is holding onto Saturn and she says that it's all right, and then falls to the floor, fading in and out. As Saturn is distracted by this, Neherenia attacks, knocking
Saturn's glaive out of her hand. Neherenia strikes again, and Saturn is trapped in a mirror. The mirrors containing the other Senshi appear, suspended in midair.
A voice says, "Neherenia..." and Serina staggers into the room.
Neherenia says, "Welcome princess of the white moon. But you were too late. If will be dawn soon. They will never awaken."
Neherenia laughs disdainfully, and sits in her throne, caressing Darean. Serina sees Chibi-Moon lying on the floor, and rushes to her. As she holds Chibi-Moon in her arms, Chibi-Moon fades even more. Chibi-Moon says, "Serina, I couldn't save Mamo-chan.
But I believe in you." Finally, Chibi-Moon vanishes entirely in a shower of lights, and Serina collapses in tears.
Serina is kneeling on the floor of the throne room, crying; and Neherenia is triumphant. Serina turns around and, for the first time, sees the mirrors containing her friends.
Serina asks, "Why?"
Neherenia says, "To get revenge on you. So you feel the loneliness that I felt."
Neherenia begins to speak; as she does, we see a dark mirror. In the mirror appears... Chibi-Neherenia! In the background, there is a chorus of voices, chanting, "Our beautiful princess Neherenia-sama."
Chibi-Neherenia reaches out to a mirror somewhere, and her eyes turn golden. We see a ballroom, and then a still of a teenage Neherenia, then the empty mirror again, and then the eclipsed moon.
Neherenia screams and blasts Serina, over and over again. Serina is hurled across the room by the attacks, finally being slammed into a wall. Neherenia picks Serina up by the throat and begins to strangle here, when she is shocked to see tears in Serina's eyes.
Neherenia says, "Stop it! Don't look at me with those eyes." and strangles Serina harder, but Serina continues to cry. Finally, Neherenia hurls Serina across the room and collapses.
Serina kneels where she landed, tears dripping unheeded from her eyes.
Neherenia says, "You should be mad at me. Hate me!"
Serina says, "If it was me, I couldn't live alone. I can't stand being alone like you."
Neherenia says, "How can you feel what I felt."
Serina says, "If you want revenge, you should take it out on me. Return everyone else. It's all right, everyone will understand your situation. They'll become your friends. Take your revenge on me."
Serina gets up, and Darean's eye glows brighter than ever, and the shard comes out and shatters. As it does, the mirrors imprisoning the other Senshi also shatter, and the Senshi appear as Darean stands up. A shower of lights appears next to Darean, and Chibi-Moon re-materializes, and takes Darean's hand.
Serina whispers, "Chibi Reenie... Mamo-chan... minna [everyone]..."
Neherenia looks up at the eclipsed moon, then shrieks and attacks wildly, blasting all the Senshi one after another. When she attacks Chibi-Moon, Darean shield her with his body, and turns into Prince Endymion. The Senshi seem unhurt by the attacks, and Neherenia is stunned.
The Senshi begin to glow with energy, and they tell Neherenia to believe in Serina. Serina transforms into Eternal Sailor Moon. Her moon rod grows into a tall staff, and a beam of energy shoots from it up to the eclipsed moon.
Serina says, "Remember your real dream."
Neherenia says, "I wanted a friend, that I can talk to. Can I really start over?"
Neherenia simply watches, not knowing what to do. The moon slowly uneclipses. Neherenia begins to cry, and then THE mirror breaks... Neherenia disappears into a brilliant wash of white light. Chibi-Neherenia wakes up from a bad dream in her throne room.
Chibi-Neherenia has to go off to sleep, but she stops and asks someone to sing her a lullaby. One of the people says that she will,
and Chibi-Neherenia becomes happy.
The Senshi are standing in what remains of the evil Neherenia's palace, looking up at the sky. Sailor Moon holds out her hand to Sailor Jupiter, and opens it to reveal Jupiter's rose earring. "Arigatou..." she says, quietly; and everyone smiles. Somewhere in space, there is evil laughter...
"Can we find it?"
"We can. That's why we came."
"We'll find it for sure."
"No matter what."
Then the door opens into a blinding light..
[TITLE SCREEN]
A sign says (in English) "Live Tour -- Three Lights." Inside a packed auditorium, a crowd of mostly young girls is screaming in Beatles-like mania. The three mysterious figures we saw earlier appear on the stage; they are the music group "Three Lights." They throw roses into the air and begin to sing.
At the cafe, the girls are talking about the "Three Lights" group. Mina likes Seiya Kou; Leta agrees. Rei likes Yaten Kou; Mina and Leta agree. Ami likes Taiki Kou; Mina, Leta, and Rei agree, then are startled that Ami "likes" someone in a band. They ask Serina who she likes, and she says, very quietly, "Mamo-chan.."
Serina tells them that Darean is going to America to study, as his paper was accepted at some university. Artemis says that it's great, and is promptly squished by Mina. Flashback to Serina and Darean on a bridge... Darean says, "One year, maybe more." and Serina replies, "It's ok."
Later, Serina is walking home, and the other four girls are a little worried about her. Ami mentioned that Chibi Reenie had returned to the future.
That night, Serina (in pajamas) is sitting on Chibi-Reenie's bed; she's holding a picture of herself, Darean, and Chibi Reenie. Luna comes in, and sees that Serina is really broken up over being left by everyone.
Luna says, "Cheer up."
Serina says, "I can't. I really wanted to say don't go. I'm not that strong."
Luna says, "Do you remember when we first met. Since then, I think you've really grown up. Let's send him off cheerfully."
Elsewhere, Darean is packing; he picks up a picture -- it's the same photo Serina was looking at, but without the cute bunny frame. He puts it in his suitcase.
The next day, Darean is at the airport waiting for his flight. He hears his name, and turns to see Serina. She says, "Mamo-chan..." He says, "Usako..." She's crying, but wipes away the tears and tells him she'll be OK. Darean pulls out a small box and gives it to her. She opens it to find a ring; Darean puts it on her ring finger. Serina is very, very happy; and she and Darean kiss.
The tender moment is interrupted by shrieks and mayhem; they look over to see a huge crowd of young girls waiting for the Three Lights. The Lights force their way through the crowd, and somehow manage to shake off the followers. Darean and Serina walk down the terminal; as they pass one of the Lights -- Seiya -- Seiya feels something from Serina. Later, Darean's plane takes off, and Serina watches it fly away.
In space, we see several galaxies, and then an evil-looking woman wearing a gold-colored costume (Galaxia). She says, "There are many star seeds on the blue planet. Find it, get the star seeds to take over the entire galaxy."
Then we see glowing lights hurdle through space and towards Earth. A light approaches an airplane; inside, Darean is looking at the photo of his happy family, when he is startled to see the light outside. From above, we see the light enter the plane; energy shoots out through all the windows, and the plane disappears in a wash of golden light.
The Three Lights are sitting in a room. Yaten feels that something had just happened.
Serina and the other girls, minus Mina, are in the cafe; Serina is looking at her ring. Leta and Ami are embarrassed that it's that.
Serina says, "What's that?"
Rei says, "You really don't know? You're a girl, right? Even Luna knows."
Luna says, "I'm a girl."
Then Serina and Rei started arguing, as Serina still doesn't know
what that is supposed to be. But it got interrupted by Mina
bursting in to tell them that the Three Lights are filming something
in the park.
At the park, there is a large crowd gathered to watch. The girls are excited, especially Ami, until the others call her on it. They try to see what's going on by jumping up and down behind the crowd, but with little success. [Ami even jumps up.. very funny.]
Finally, they decide to force their way to the front of the crowd; Rei, Mina, Leta and Ami disappear into the crowd, but Serina is left behind. Behind them, unnoticed in a tree, is a small, white-haired girl wearing a Chicago gangster-style pin stripe suit and sunglasses.
Disconsolate, Serina wanders off; then sees some TV trucks in a roped-off area, with a sign that says, "Authorized Personnel Only". She begins to sneak in that direction, although Luna is dubious about this plan. As she passes a park bench, a voice speaks sharply, "You're not supposed to go there," and Serina is startled.
Seiya Kou gets up from the bench, and is startled to see Serina, as she remembers her from the airport.
Seiya says, "You don't remember.."
Serina says, "Have we met somewhere?"
Seiya says, "You don't know me?"
Serina says, "No."
Seiya says, "Oh.. Maybe I'm not as famous as I think I am."
As Seiya leaves, she calls Serina "Meatball" and Serina gets mad. Serina says that Mamo-chan is the only one allowed to call her that.
Back where they're filming, the other four girls are watching; they notice Serina is missing, but don't feel compelled to go looking. The actress Itsuki Arisu walks away from the filming, towards the trucks.
Serina is sneaking around the trucks when Arisu comes out of one. As she starts to walk away, the pin stripe-suit-woman appears. She whips off her suit to reveal a moderately silly skimpy white outfit, complete with tail. She says, "Give me your star seed!" and hurls a couple of balls of light at Arisu, who is held motionless. A flower appears on the victim's forehead, and opens to reveal a small, shining crystal.
Serina has seen this all from behind a truck; now she transforms into Eternal Sailor Moon (a full-blown transformation sequence this time) by saying, "Moon eternal, make up!"
The crystal that had appeared turns black, and the villainess is disappointed, as the star seed was not the one that she was looking for. Sailor Moon appears, and says, "I don't know who you are, but I won't forgive you for attacking the idol Itsuki Arisu." She finishes off her speech, "Tsuki ni kawatte oshioki yo!"
The villainess is unimpressed; she tells Sailor Moon that her name is Sailor Iron Mouse. Iron Mouse turns the victim into the Monster-of-the-Day, a woman in a silly costume with a microphone; and then a phone booth appears and Iron Mouse gets into it and vanishes (can anyone say "Tardis"? I knew you could...)
The microphone grows spikes, and the monster begins swinging it on the end of its cord, trying to hit Sailor Moon. Sailor Moon dodges several attacks. Luna tells her to attack, but Sailor Moon says, "I can't. That's Itsuki Arisu. I can't attack her."
Then there are finger-snapping sounds, a la "West Side Story," and three figures appear on top of a truck. They are the Three Lights (of course), wearing abbreviated black-
leather versions of the Sailor Senshi costume. They say that their names are "Sailor Star Fighter" (Seiya), "Sailor Star Maker" (Taiki), and "Sailor Star Healer" (Yaten), and together they are the "Sailor Star Lights".
The monster attacks, and Sailor Star Fighter hits her with her Star Serious Laser attack. The monster seems badly hurt by the attack, and the Star Lights are about to hit it again when Sailor Moon jumps in between them. They tell her to get out of the way, and she yells, "No! No way!" Then Sailor Moon uses her attack, Starlight Honeymoon therapy kiss, and the monster returns to being human. Sailor Moon turns around, but the Star Lights are gone.
Later, the filming is finished, and the four girls are walking off, wondering what became of Serina. They see her sitting on a bench, thinking hard. [The enemy is sailor senshi, and the ones who helped me are sailor senshi..]
The girls ask Serina where she was. Rei and Serina get in another fight, as Serina couldn't explain any of what had just happened. Then the camera pans up to the sunset, to the gentle sound of their bickering.
At school, Serina is writing a letter to Darean. As she signs it, Mina, Leta, and Ami look over her shoulder. Serina tries to cover up the letter, but they look at it anyway. Ami says, "Did you forget the kanji that you studied for the exam?"
[TITLE SCREEN]
At school, Leta hurls a javelin with incredible force. A member of the track and field team is impressed; he says that Leta will be able to go the Interhigh (national championships). But Leta says that she wants to join the cooking club.
Ami is working on a computer in the PC club, while a large crowd of older students watch. She prints out some information that she got from Columbia University via the Internet. The boy says that he's not good at English, and Ami says, "Should I translate?"
Meanwhile, Mina spikes a volleyball, then goes off on a Mina-style over-the-top speech about becoming the Japan champion.. Mina thinks she is the best high school player in Japan.
Serina is leaving school when she runs into Luna. Serina want to join some club like the others, but she want to take it too easy, and Luna gets a giant sweat drop.
Later, Serina is walking down the street with Luna draped over her shoulder; Serina says, "Ne, Luna..." and remembers the fight with Iron Mouse, the monster, and the Sailor Star Lights from last episode. Serina doesn't know how to tell the other girls about it.
As she walks thus abstracted around a corner, she bumps into Seiya.
Serina says, "Oh, it's you again," and gets mad.
Seiya says, "Normal girls are very happy to bump into me."
Then the other two Lights walk up. Seiya pats Serina on one of her meatball and walks off, saying, "Ja ne, Meatball Head..." Serina is less than pleased.
In a large TV studio building, in a cluttered office, Iron Mouse is sitting at a TV editing console, wearing her pinstripe duds. She zooms through several clips of people doing various athletics, then goes back to a large guy in an American football uniform (number 13) and decides that he's the next target. As she's admiring his physique, the phone rings. She walks over to a desk with a phone on it, opens the file drawers, revealing a second phone, and answers that. The voice at the other end says, "Nezu producer, the president is calling for you."
Iron Mouse walks through several abandoned hallways and storage rooms (the building appears empty, except for her.) She comes to an elevator with boards nailed across the opening; she ducks under the boards into the elevator, which takes her to...
Outer space. Iron Mouse comes out of the elevator and bows to Galaxia, who is sitting on a throne. Galaxia asks if Iron Mouse has found the star seed. Iron Mouse answers, "Soon."
Serina, Leta, and Ami are walking to school, when they see a crowd of girls gathered out front, with Mina starry-eyed front and center. They ask her what's up, and she says the Three Lights are coming to their school. The four girls watch a van pull up, and suddenly Rei pops out from behind them. "Rei-chan!..." Needless to say, they are surprised to see her at their school.
The three lights get out of the van, and Rei rushes up and shows them her Three Lights fan club card (number 2906). Leta shoulders Rei aside and pulls out her fan club card (number 1606). Then Mina butts in, and shows her card (number 278). Ami comes up, VERY embarrassed, and shows HER fan club card (number 25), which is colored gold. The others are surprised at Ami, and she whispers, "Sorry..."
Seiya spots Serina in the crowd, and calls out "Yo, Meatball Head!" Serina is surprised; evidently, she hadn't made the connection that this annoying person was one of the Three Lights. The other four girls wonder what Serina has been up to. "Why do you know Seiya?" Serina just says, "He's a strange one.."
In the classroom, the teacher introduces the three new students. Mina enthusiastically points out an empty seat next to her, which Yaten takes. Taiki sits down in front of Leta, and Seiya takes the seat behind Serina, and calls her Meatball again. Serina yells that her name is Serina, and Seiya tells her that she's Meatball.
Seiya asks Serina if she would show him around the school. Serina says no, but Mina immediately comes and says that they would. Then the teacher yells for everyone to please SIT DOWN.
Meanwhile, Iron Mouse is lurking around outside the school.
In the gym, Seiya is playing basketball. He steals the ball from one of the players, streaks down the court, and dunks the ball. The LARGE crowd of girls watching is very impressed, especially Mina. Rei pops out again, prompting another round of "Rei-chan! What are you doing at our school?" Rei says, "I ran here after school."
Taiki and Yaten are watching, and seem less enthusiastic. Mina spots them, and gloms onto Taiki. Taiki seems non-plussed, but Mina drags him off with an arm around his neck. Rei remarks that Mina is incredible.
Seiya calls out, "Oi, Meatball Head!" and Serina yells back that her name IS NOT Meatball Head. Seiya apologizes, and asks, "Where should we go next?"
Serina coldly answers, "I don't know," and the other girls get upset at Serina.
Outside, Seiya and Serina are watching the American football team practice. The ball is knocked out of one of the players' hands, and lands in front of Seiya. He picks it up, and tells Serina to watch him make a touchdown. Seiya takes off down the field, dodging player after player. But just as he's getting within reach of the endzone, number 13 (the captain of the team, Kayama) runs up behind him, and knocks him over -- much to his surprise.
Serina runs up to see if Seiya is all right, and yells at the player for going all out against someone who wasn't wearing any pads. Seiya says it all right, and that he's a really good player.
Later, Kayama is cooling off under a faucet, when Iron Mouse appears, still in her civies. She admires him, asks him for an interview, and rubs up against his muscles, much to his consternation. Then she changes into her Mouse outfit, and attacks him. Inside, Serina is at the shoe locker, and hears the screams.
Outside, the flower has appeared on Kayama's forehead, and a crystal comes out of it. However, the crystal turns black, and Iron Mouse is disappointed. "That's not the star seed that I'm looking for."
Sailor Moon transforms, and goes through her speech. Iron Mouse turns the football player into the Monster-of-the-Day, steps into her phone booth, and vanishes.
The monster (Sailor Guts) is... basically, the football player, turned pink, and dressed in a miniature version of Sailor Moon's outfit, complete with little wings. Sailor Moon is taken aback. The monster prepares his attack, which is hurling globs of sweat. Sailor Moon dodges this rather smelly attack, and is about to be hit by a second one when a Jupiter Oak Evolution knocks the sweat-glob out of the air.
The other Scouts appear, and the monster starts hurling dozens of globs of sweat. The Scouts all dodge the attacks, holding their noses. Then they hear finger-snapping, and the Sailor Star Lights appear and introduce themselves.
"Even with the five of you, is this your strength? Are you still sailor scouts?"
The monster throws a sweat thing at them, but Sailor Star Maker does her attack (star gentle uterus) and reflects it back at him. Then Sailor Moon does her "Starlight Honeymoon Therapy Kiss" attack and heals the football player.
Later, at the cafe, Serina is drawing some comic, as she has joined the comic club. The other girls appear behind her, and look at the comic.. "That's a pig." "No, that's a Tasmanian devil." Serina says that it's Luna..
Then Seiya went to take a closer look at Mina's eye, and Serina (who was in the bushes waiting with a camera) started taking pictures.. But Serina got so excited that she came out of the bushes and went right up to Mina and Seiya.
Later, Ami, Leta, Rei, and Serina were in Crown dessert parlor. They were looking at the pictures that Serina had taken. They were all bad.
Ami: I can feel Serina-chan's excitement, but..
Mina was planning on selling the pictures of her and Seiya together to the press, so she can become famous. The other day, Mina had done something similar, as she fed lunch to Yaten. Rei got upset when she heard this. But before that, Mina got her picture taken with Taiki, and Ami immediately stood up. The girls were wondering who Mina's real target was.
Then Mina came into the store. The other girls all asked Mina who her real target was. Them Mina said that she gave up on that strategy, as she figured out a new strategy. She
announced that she had become their assistant.
Leta: What is your goal? To debut, or become the girl friend of the three lights?
Mina: Of course, both.
Everyone was shocked.
Then Mina took off as she had to go attend to the three lights. When Ami looked around, Serina was gone too.
The three lights were sitting and practicing.
Taiki: Will we really find her?
Seiya: We'll find her. That's why we're doing this idol thing.
Yaten: If we work, she'll spot us. We have to work harder.
Nezu was looking through a magazine. She spotted Itabashi Saki, a 24 year old camera woman. Then Nezu was called up to see Galaxia.
Galaxia: Get the real star seed, so we can take over the galaxy.
The three lights were doing voice training. Serina had followed Mina and was peeking in with her. Then some woman started taking pictures of the three lights. [It was Itabashi Saki.] Mina thought it was a fan, and tried to get her to stop. But Saki kept taking pictures.
Saki: You're in the way.
Later the three lights had a signing session. Saki was taking some more pictures. She spotted Mina, who was busy trying to help out, and also passing out her own signatures. Saki went to Mina and pulled her away.
Saki: This isn't fun and games.
After the busy work day was over, the three lights returned to their dressing room, and found Saki waiting for them. Saki took a picture of Yaten yawning. She introduced herself as being assigned to take the pictures of the three lights. But Yaten got angry and
took the film out of Saki's camera.
The next day the three lights were out in the country filming a commercial for a drink. Mina and Serina were there too. Serina was surprised at the amount of juice that the three lights were drinking. She thought that the juice didn't look too good, and tasted some herself. It was awful.
Serina: How can they drink it?
Mina: An idol has to always have a smile in front of the camera. It's tough isn't it.
Then Saki came and said to Mina: You sound like you know. You want to be a pro, right?
Mina: Yes.
Saki: You'll find out.
The three lights were taking pictures in a photo studio. Saki was taking a lot of pictures. Serina and Mina were watching, and Serina's stomach grumbled.
Serina: I'm hungry. When can we eat?
Mina: An idol can only eat after the work is finished.
Serina: There's no way I can do that. I'm going to the convenience store..
Then Serina went off.
The time limit of the studio was up, so they finished the shooting. Mina came and brought cold towels for the three lights. Just as Mina and the three lights were going to go eat, Saki said: Wait, can you stay a little longer? It's starting to get good now. Please let
me take pictures until I'm satisfied.
Mina: The time is up.
Saki: This isn't school.
Mina and Saki started to argue, but the three lights went back to the studio to get their picture taken. Saki explained to Mina that this was the severeness of a being a pro.
At night, as Saki came out of the studio by herself, Nezu faced her. Nezu transformed into Iron Mouse and attacked Saki. Mina came outside looking for Serina and saw Iron Mouse.
Mina transformed into Sailor Venus.
Iron Mouse got Saki's star seed, but it wasn't the real one that she was looking for. Sailor Venus and Iron Mouse started fighting. Then Serina came walking down the street as she came back from the store. She saw the fighting and transformed into Eternal Sailor Moon.
Sailor Venus fired the Venus love and beauty shock, but Iron Mouse dodged it. Sailor Moon arrived on the scene. Then Iron Mouse turned Saki into a monster, Sailor Gekisha, and left.
Sailor Gekisha used a camera attack at Sailor Moon. Sailor Moon dodged it, but Sailor Venus got hit. Then the Sailor Star Lights appeared. Sailor Star Healer used her star sensitive inferno attack. When the monster was down, Sailor Moon used her starlight honeymoon therapy kiss attack to turn her back into Saki.
After the battle the Sailor Star Lights went off, although Sailor Moon wanted them to stay.
The next day, Ami, Leta, Rei and Serina were at Crown. They were wondering how Mina was doing. Then Mina came with a lot of pamphlets for auditions. She said that she was going to try to become a star through auditions. Then after drinking Serina's juice, she ran off.
