Sailor Moon Episode Thirty-One
A Reluctant Princess

Voice Over Serena: So here's the buzz, Sailor Moon fans. We're stuck in this creepy cave with that lowlife dweezil, Zoisite. Thanks to her, Tuxedo Mask is fighting for his life. Oh, that's the other hot buzz: Darien is Tuxedo Mask. Oh, and here's the real kicker: I'M the Moon Princess: me... Serena. Like even.
Luna: Wow. Sailor Moon... You're the Moon Princess from so long ago. Right in front of me, and I didn't even know.
Sailor Jupiter: Yeah, who'd have thought that Serena, of all people, would turn out to be the Moon Princess? It's a total blowaway.
Sailor Mars: Tell me about it.
Sailor Mercury: And what about Darien? I still can't believe that he's Tuxedo Mask. Oh Mars, I'm sorry. You must feel terrible.
Sailor Mars: Hmm, but I guess they were meant to be long before Darien and I.
Zoisite: Enough with all your silly chatter! I want that Imperium Silver Crystal, and I'm going to get it! ZOI!
Princess Serena: COSMIC MOON POWER!
Zoisite: NO!
Princess Serena: Tuxedo Mask, I feel you are growing weaker. Please do not go. I need you.
Darien: You're... you're finally free... Serena. You're free, and now I remember everything. It's all so clear. I am Prince Darien.
Princess Serena: Yes, Price Darien. I am remembering now, too. I am Princess Serena of the Moon Kingdom, and you were a prince from Earth. One day, we were to marry. I can picture the last time we were together.
Princess Serena: I gave you my Star Locket so you would always remember me. It was right before the last battle with the Negaverse, and you were going to defend our kingdom from the dark forces. Oh Darien! Come back to me! It was the last time I saw you. DARIEN!
Princess Serena: You DID come back, and you set me free like in our dream. We are free.
Sailor Venus: Sailor Moon! She collapsed! What happened?
Luna: This whole thing must've been too much for her.
Sailor Jupiter: Check her pulse. Is she gonna be all right?
Sailor Venus: I think so. Just a little fainting spell.
Sailor Mercury: How princess-like.
Aretmis: All those memories flooding back must've overloaded her royal circuits. I'm sure she'll be fine.
Sailor Mars: Come on, Darien. Wake up. It's me, Raye.
Sailor Jupiter: We gotta get him to a doctor. He needs help fast.
Zoisite: Nobody's going anywhere.
Sailor Jupiter: Hmm?
Zoisite: I hope you got a good look at your princess, 'cause she's going back into history. You're all history.
Malachite: Zoisite, you're trembling!
Zoisite: Help me, Malachite. Help me get them all before they escape. They'll find the exit... and take the Imperium Crystal with them.
Malachite: No they won't! They'll never find their way out of here. We'll get that crystal back. Don't you worry. But there's something else we gotta get, too.
Sailor Venus: Well, you'll have to deal with us first, pretty boy.
Sailor Mercury: Careful, Sailor Scouts.
Malachite: Cool your jets, Sailor brats. It's not you I'm interested in.
Sailor Venus: He's after Darien!
Sailor Mars: Darien, no! Darien. He's gone. What are they gonna do with him?
Queen Beryl: Oh, excellent work. The Moon Princess now has the Imperium Crystal. So what are you going to do about it, Malachite?
Malachite: Oh, we'll get it back. Don't you worry, my queen. After all, she's just a young girl, really a crybaby. You think this kid can pull off being the Moon Princess? I very much doubt that.
Queen Beryl: You'd better be right. I'll give you another chance. Now, Zoisite, please explain your behavior regarding Tuxedo Mask.
Zoisite: Please, your Majesty. It was an accident.
Queen Beryl: First, the elevator, then the ice crystal. Did you think I wouldn't know?!
Zoisite: No, It's just...
Queen Beryl: You've been warned for the last time! You won't disobey me again!
Malachite: Queen Beryl, please! It's my fault! I trained her! QUEEN BERYL!
Zoisite: AAAAH! MALACHITE!
Malachite: Huh? NO!
Queen Beryl: Let that be a warning, Malachite.
Malachite: Yes.
Queen Beryl: Now, to more important matters. Oh great Negaforce, do we have enough energy to turn Tuxedo Mask to our side?
Negaforce: Yes, but he's very weak. You must go slowly, and you'll have to erase all the memories of his past he regained with the princess.
Queen Beryl: Then, he'll be ours, all ours, and I'll turn him against the princess and get that crystal back!
Negaforce: You've finally succeeded at something, Beryl. Now, give me the necessary energy!
Queen Beryl: Of course, my master.
Malachite: Oh Zoisite, I'm so sorry. It's not fair. Queen Beryl should've punished me for not teaching you to be more patient. I'm so sorry I failed you.
Zoisite: Hold me. The only one who failed was me, Malachite. You told me not to seek revenge, but I didn't listen. Promise... just promise me one last thing, Malachite.
Malachite: Anything.
Zoisite: Don't forget me.
Malachite: I would never. Goodbye, my love.
Sailor Venus: Which way, Mercury?
Sailor Mercury: I'm not quite sure, you guys. It's hard to get readings in this place. It's like we're in another dimension.
Luna: Like a time warp thing.
Sailor Mercury: Yes, it's some kind of strange combination of time warp and negative space, and so now, I have to try to convert the radical readings I'm getting in here into the same format as the original ones that got us in here. Only, I'm not sure my computer has enough memory to do all of the calculations.
Sailor Jupiter: And if there isn't, we'll have to guess.
Luna: That means we could be stuck wandering around this creepy cave for days.
Sailor Jupiter: Either way, I'm gonna need some help here. She may be a princess, but she isn't light.
Sailor Moon: I heard that.
Sailor Venus: She's waking up!
Sailor Mercury: She going to be okay.
Sailor Jupiter: Sailor Moon, are you all right?
Sailor Mars: Yeah, you've been out of it for a while. Remember where you are? Remember what happened?
Sailor Moon: Tuxedo Mask. Where is he? Is he...? Is he...? What happened to him? Why isn't he here? Did... did you abandon him?
Sailor Mars: Of course not! The Negaverse took him.
Sailor Moon: Was he all right?
Sailor Mars: We don't know. Seems like he was hurt pretty badly.
Sailor Moon: I remember. Oh Darien... What are we gonna do?
Aretmis: Okay, you guys. We gotta talk here. If we're gonna help Darien, you have to understand your past. Luna and I are just remembering it now, too. It's all coming back, isn't it, Luna?
Luna: Yes, long story, too.
Sailor Jupiter: Are we part of the Moon Kingdom, too?
Sailor Venus: Yeah, Jupiter. We've just gotta be. I mean, if Sailor Moon's the princess, we must've had important jobs, too. Right, Artemis?
Aretmis: Right as usual, Venus.
Aretmis: A long time ago, we all lived happily in a beautiful place called the Moon Kingdom.
Luna: It was a wonderful, peace-loving time for all the planets, known as the Silver Millennium.
Aretmis: And Princess Serena lived there in the royal castle.
Luna: Her mother, Queen Serenity, was a fair and gentle ruler, who was raising her daughter to follow in her footsteps.
Aretmis: But then, the peace was shattered when evil Queen Beryl found a way to break out of her Negaverse into our Universe. She attacked the Moon Kingdom with a vengeance. Queen Serenity defeated Beryl's strongest warriors, then locked them inside her Imperium Silver Crystal and sent them to Earth.
Luna: The Moon Kingdom was forever destroyed. Her power broken, Queen Serenity used the last of her strength to send Princess Serenity and her court to a new future on Earth. You girls were all princesses of your own respective planets, but also part of Serena's court.
Aretmis: And then, Luna and I were sent to be your guardians and to reunite you.
Sailor Jupiter: But how come we don't remember any of this? It-it doesn't make any sense.
Sailor Venus: Sure it does. Serenity wanted us to be happy, so she sent us to a new time and place, hoping it would be peaceful there.
Luna: But if the Negaverse did show up again, Queen Serenity made sure we'd be able to activate the Sailor Scouts to fight off any new threats by Queen Beryl.
Aretmis: And now that we've got the Imperium Silver Crystal, Queen Beryl doesn't have a chance against us.
Sailor Mercury: So basically, what you guys are saying is that our battle with them's just begun?
Luna & Aretmis: Uh huh.
Aretmis: You got it, Mercury, but now that they've got Darien, you guys have got your work cut out for you.
Luna: We've got to beat 'em. If we ever want lasting peace, we're going to have to beat the Negaverse once and for all.
Sailor Venus: We don't want the same thing to happen to us that happened to the Moon Kingdom. Our Universe would be destroyed. We've got to stand up to them, so we have a future.
Sailor Mars: Yeah. All together.
Sailor Jupiter: United as one.
Sailor Moon: Count me out. I don't wanna fight.
Sailor Jupiter: Sailor Moon, you don't mean that, do you? You're our leader. We need you.
Luna: And you're the Princess.
Sailor Moon: I don't care. Somebody else can do it.
Sailor Venus: Come on, Sailor Moon. It's your destiny. You're the one.
Sailor Moon: I am NOT, Venus. I mean, I can barely handle being Sailor Moon. Now, I'm the Moon Princess, too? I can't do all this. I'm telling you.
Luna: You're just tired. You need some time to let it all sink in, and then...
Sailor Moon: I DON'T WANT ANY OF THIS TO SINK IN! I JUST WANNA BE A NORMAL TEENAGER! CAN ANY OF YOU GUYS UNDERSTAND THAT?! MY NAME'S SERENA! NOT SAILOR MOON, MOON PRINCESS, NOT MOON ANYTHING! Ooh! Oh... Tuxedo Mask is gone, and now we know he's actually Darien, and he'll never call me Meatball Head again. Mercury, get us out. I wanna go home... please.
Sailor Mars: Sailor Moon... even though you're a crybaby and an irresponsible whiner and...
Sailor Moon: Go away, Mars. I don't need this now. I know you hate me. You've always hated me.
Sailor Mars: That's not true.
Sailor Moon: It isn't?
Sailor Mars: Gotta say, never thought you were much of a leader, but I know I was wrong, especially after seeing the way you handled that Crystal.
Aretmis: Yeah, you totally toasted that crud Zoisite.
Luna: A very pretty sight. Hm hm hm hm.
Sailor Mercury: Oh come on, you guys. Let her be for a little while. After all, this is Serena, and this is a very big deal. And here's the good news: I've found a way out of here.
Luna: Good work. Would you say we go get some burgers and get our minds off all this?
Sailor Venus: Oh yeah. I could go for that.
Malachite: Sorry. Dinner plans just got cancelled. I want that Imperium Silver Crystal!
Sailor Venus: Luna! Artemis! Better run for cover now!
Luna: Be careful, Scouts.
Aretmis: Stick together. You can beat him.
Sailor Venus: If you want that crystal, you answer to me.
Sailor Jupiter: ...and me. Let's double-team him. 'Kay, Venus?
Sailor Venus: Excellent idea.
Malachite: Oh, ooh. You're scaring me.
Sailor Jupiter: JUPITER THUNDER CRUSH! What goes? He-he's aborbing all my energy!
Sailor Venus: I'll take care of it. VENUS CRESCENT BEAM SMASH!
Sailor Mercury: This is bad. He's sucking up any energy we throw at him. We've got to find a way to stop him!
Sailor Mars: What can we do, Mercury?
Malachite: HA! Nothing, girls.
Sailor Jupiter: Oh, I'm sure not giving up yet!
Sailor Venus: Me neither, but what can we do?
Malachite: Like I said before, NOTHING!
Mars & Mercury: WATCH OUT!
Malachite: HAND OVER THE CRYSTAL UNLESS YOU WANT TO END UP LIKE YOUR FRIENDS!
Sailor Mars: No choice there, huh, Mercury? Get her outta here! Hmm... go on! You're the princess. We've got to protect you... and the Imperium Silver Crystal.
Malachite: GET ON WITH IT, WOULD YOU?!
Sailor Mars: Fine! MARS FIRE IGNITE!
Malachite: PATHETIC! WHAT A JOKE!
Sailor Moon: NO! Sailor Mars!
Malachite: Step aside, Mercury! It's not you I'm after!
Sailor Mercury: Go bleach your roots, creep!
Malachite: Fine then! It's your loss! NO ONE STANDS IN MY WAY!
Sailor Moon: Sailor Mercury, can you hear me?
Sailor Mercury: Sorry, Princess. He was too strong for us.
Sailor Moon: Then I'm history.
Telepathic Sailor Venus: No you're not. You can beat him.
Telepathic Sailor Jupiter: Believe in yourself.
Telepathic Sailor Mars: Our future depends on you.
Sailor Moon: Mercury, Mars, Venus, Jupiter... Oh my friends... Don't worry, Scouts. I won't let you down. Not this time.
Dream Tuxedo Mask: Help me be free again.
Sailor Moon: Tuxedo Mask! You came!
Dream Tuxedo Mask: I'm on your side, Sailor Moon, and I always will be. Remember that.
Sailor Moon: COME ON, YOU PASTY-FACED, TWO-TIMING NEGATWIT! YOU'RE HISTORY!
Malachite: Oh! Sounds like a challenge! SAY GOODBYE NOW, SAILOR MOON! THIS ONE'S FOR ZOISITE!
Sailor Moon: For my friends... FOR OUR UNIVERSE! COSMIC MOON POWER!
Malachite: She's strong! Surprising! Hmm. The kid knows how to handle that crystal after all.
Sailor Moon: Woah. Where did that come from?
Malachite: Oh. I failed. Queen Beryl's not gonna like this turn of events one little bit.
Queen Beryl: Darien's a very stubborn man. Erasing his memory is taking longer than I thought.
Queen Beryl: Tell me who you are.
Darien: I am... Darien.
Queen Beryl: Not much longer. Very soon, you'll be a warrior for the Negaverse! Your first assignment: getting the Silver Crystal back from Princess Serena.
Sailor Moon: *thinking* I don't know where you are, Tuxedo Mask, but wherever it is, I'm with you.
Sailor Venus: There you are, Sailor Moon.
Sailor Moon: Huh, what?
Sailor Venus: Hey girl, you all right?
Sailor Moon: Yeah. Fine.
Sailor Mars: Hope you know, we'll always be behind you, no matter what.
Sailor Moon: I know. Thank you.
Luna: You really nailed that guy today. I'm proud of you.
Aretmis: And your mother'd be proud of you, too.
Luna: You girls were all great today. It's going to be a tough fight all the way, but I know we can beat the Negaverse. We've got to.
Sailor Moon: *thinking* ...and find Tuxedo Mask, wherever you are out there.
