Prologue
*The phone rings in the Tsukino household*
Mrs. Tuskino: Usagi! Telephone!
Usagi: *rushes down the stairs* Thank you mommy! *takes the phone* Hello?
Rei: Hey Usagi!
Usagi: Rei! How are you!? What's up?
Rei: Oh, I'm fine. The girls and I are planning a day at the beach. Are you comming?
Usagi: You bet! I can be ready in 5 minutes!
Rei: Good. And Usagi?...
Usagi: Yes?
Rei: Don't forget to bring something to eat as well. Lita can't make food for everyone you know!
Usagi: *Blushes* Uhh... Okay. You better make that 15 minutes.
Rei: Okay. We'll see you at the beach at our normal spot.
Usagi: Got it. Bye. *Hangs up* MOM! Can I go to the beach?
Mrs. Tsukino: Usagi, did you clean your room like I asked?
Usagi: Of course I did, mom.
*Usagi's room*
Luna: *Stuck in a pile of clothes* Usagi! Get me out of here!
Usagi: In a minute, Luna. I have to get ready to go to the beach.
Luna: Didn't you have plans with Mamo-chan?
Usagi: OH! I FORGOT TO TELL YOU!
Luna: What?
Usagi: MAMO-CHAN WENT TO CHINA! AND HE DIDN'T TAKE ME!!! *starts to cry*
Luna: WHAT?! You mean he's not here?
Usagi: *Pulling Luna from the pile* Yes. He had some things to take care of and he just left. What am I going to do without him. *begins to sob*
Luna: Usagi! Don't cry. Why don't we look at this in another way.
Usagi: Like how?
Luna: Think about it. Even though we can always count on Tuxedo Mask to help us out, I think this would be a great opportunity to rely on your own abilities.
Usagi: WHAT!??? But I...
Luna: I know it sounds harsh, but you do rely on Tuxedo Mask way too much. You have become a stronger person over the years. Don't you agree?
Usagi: I guess so... OH NO!
Luna: What is it?
Usagi: I have to get ready! Rei will have a fit if I'm not ready!
Luna: ...............................................
*20 minutes later at the beach*
Rei: She's late again. Why am I not surprized?
Ami: Oh, Rei. Let's just have some fun while we're waiting.
Mina: Yeah! Who's up for Volleyball?
Lita: You're on!
*Meanwhile... On the other side of the beach*
Peter Bandit: What a day to chill on the beach. It's a good thing I took a break here in Tokyo. *Watches the surfers* Come to think of it... When was the last time I got to enjoy myself? I wonder where my board is? *goes into his beach house*
*The girls are enjoying themselves*
Usagi: Guys! I'm here! Sorry I'm late!
Rei: What happened? You're way past late!
Usagi: I'm sorry. Luna was talking with me about Mamo-Chan...
Rei: AGAIN!? That's all you ever talk about...
Usagi: But he left to China! Can you believe it?
All: WHAT!???
Ami: When did he leave?
Usagi: This morning. And Luna was telling me that this was a good thing.
Mina: I wonder if we'll be fine without Tuxedo Mask?
Ami: It is a change of pace. But we've become stronger than when we first discovered we were Sailor senshi.
Rei: That's true. I'm sure we'll do fine on our own. Unlike Usagi here...
Usagi: HEY! WHAT DOES THAT MEAN???!!!
*Meanwhile on a rock in the middle of the shoreline*
Andy: *Under deep meditation* I sense a dark spirit. *Opens his eyes* But it is not of the outcast? There must be some reason why I felt such a spirit... *Looks out to the beach and sees a lone figure walking by* It can't be...
*The figure stops and sees Andy*
Andy: OUTCAAAAAAAAAST!!!! *Shoots a Fireball at the stranger*
Ruben: ? *Sees the Fireball* NO!
*The fireball impacts under Ruben's feet sending him down on the beach*
Andy: I don't know how you've gained such a dark power, but I will not allow you to use it! *Unsheaths his sword* Prepare for death, Outcast!
Ruben: *Slowly stands up* What do you want from me? I mean no harm.
Andy: Are you truely this naive? All that power and you can destroy us all without thinking! There is no way I can alow you live!
Ruben: I don't want to fight here! And I will not! Just let me leave.
Andy: You had your chance the last time! Now you DIE! *rushes Ruben with his sword*
Ruben: *Catches Andy's sword and is struggling to hold him* I never asked for this power and you hate me with such rage. Why can't I find PEACE?!!!!! *A surge of energy errupts in Ruben causing an explosion*
Rei: What was that?
Ami: That sounded like an explosion.
Lita: LOOK! *Points to the explosion*
Usagi: YIKES! What is that?
Rei: I don't know, but I sense something bad over there. You think we shoud check it out?
Usagi: Maybe it's nothing.
Mina: Usagi! This is serious. Our fun will have to wait for now.
Usagi: Oh, alright. *Grabs her brooch* MOON CRYSTAL POWER MAKE UP!
Rei: MARS CRYSTAL POWER MAKE UP!
Ami: MERCURY CRYSTAL POWER MAKE UP!
Mina: VENUS CRYSTAL POWER MAKE UP!
Lita: JUPITER CRYSTAL POWER MAKE UP!
*At the beach house*
Peter Bandit: What was that? *Looks to the explosion* Those two again? There's people that don't need to be in their fight. They can be a pain sometimes. *Rushes to the scene*
