Ohayo!  I'm sorry that I didn't have this out this weekend like I
promised, please forgive me!  ONEGAI!  Anyways, you'll notice these
things that say ~992 AD~ or ~1996 AD~.  Those signify a time change
and the reason it's 1996 is because Sailor Moon started in 1992, and
since Serena is almost 18, it's been four years and thus, it would
have to be the year 1996 and not 2000!

SAILOR MOON SUPERS STARTS SEPTEMBER 26TH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just thought you should know. ;)

Oh yes, and Happy Birthday to my Mommy!!!  :)

RATING: PG, this is a good chapter, I hope.

DISCLAIMER: Well...my birthday is in a couple of months...will someone
be a dear and buy it for me?

~992 AD~

Amara leaned back unceremoniously in her chair, not really caring if
she was getting strange looks from the others in the room.  It had
been only a day since the battle between the "Tenma" and the arrival
of the strange new Sailor Soldier and the masked man.  She couldn't
keep her mind off of their words, or how strong the girl seemed.
She had said something about it being too easy.  She clenched her
fist tightly.  Something that all of them had been barely able to
touch was "too easy" for that girl who hid herself behind a mask.  It
was as though someone had taken a knife and stabbed through the
stomach with it, twisting it around, only hurting her more.  She
was suddenly the weak one, when she was really one of the strongest.

That's what they were meeting for.  To assess what they had seen,
and determine if those two were really threats.  Though they were
still waiting on Princess Serenity.

Amara chuckled at the thought of her bouncy Princess being scared
of another person.  She was still a child in many ways, and hadn't
changed since the last time she had been to the Moon and seen her
Princess.  She had thought her a child even back then, though it
was only two years ago.  She had been there when Endymion had first
started courting Serenity.  She had made sure that he knew some
important "rules" if he was going to try and win the Princess.
She hadn't meant for them to end up fighting, but sometimes things
work out that way.  Needless to say, even at the age of fourteen,
her Princess had quite frankly scared her into not attempting
something like that again.

Familiar footsteps were heard in the hallway and Endymion sighed.
"I wonder what kept her," he asked himself.

Mina turned and winked at Endymion.  "Well, since you're here, it
wasn't you this time, Prince."

Raye snorted slightly.  "Yeah, that's a first."

Amy looked up from her small data computer and sighed.  'When she's
not picking a fight with Serenity, she has to pick one with the
nearest blonde in sight.  She's never going to change,' she told
herself as she watched Mina get ready to defend Endymion.

"Don't you start this again," Michelle warned the girls, and Endymion
with a half smile on her face.

Princess Serenity threw open the doors, panting, and ran to her
seat.  "I'm sorry!  Serena and I were in the gardens and I lost
track of time," she apologized hurriedly.  "It won't happen again,"
she told her mother, whom she was sitting next to.

Queen Serenity nodded to her daughter and turned to face the others.
"We all know why we are here," she started.  "We need to attempt to
figure out the motives of those two new Warriors we met up with
yesterday.  I leave the floor open, you can say anything you like
about what you think of them."

Amara was the first to stand up.  "They are not from in this Solar
System, Majesty, they could very well be enemies!"

"Then why did they save us?" Lita asked with a challenge in her
tone.  "They could have let us die, there's no way we could have
beaten what ever that thing, Tenma, was."

Michelle faced Lita and shook her head.  "They could be doing it
to win our trust and when they have it, they could kill us when our
backs are turned."

"But they could also not!" Princess Serenity protested.  "I felt
something when I saw them!  They won't hurt us!"

Endymion took Serenity's hand and squeezed it.  "Don't get over
excited," Endymion whispered to her.  "I don't think this meeting
is going to do much more than get everyone's feelings out in the
open."  Serenity nodded and let out a breath.

"She right," Mercury protested.  "Why would they gain our confidence
and then turn around and kill us when we could be killed much
easier?"

"DON'T TALK AS THOUGH WE'RE WEAK!" Amara yelled at her.

Lita's eyes lit up with a fire and she stood suddenly, knocking
down her chair.  "DON'T YELL AT AMY!  SHE KNOWS WHAT SHE'S TALKING
ABOUT, UNLIKE YOU!"

"ENOUGH!" Queen Serenity yelled.  "This is not going to get us
anywhere!  We shall discuss this civilly, or all of you may go to
your chambers and not come out until dinner!"

Luna and Artemis, sitting to the right and left of Queen Serenity,
nodded their agreement with her.  "You are all acting like two year
olds, or your mothers, I can't decide which!" Luna told them.

"Sit down!  Or else your training until lights out tonight," Artemis
ordered them.

Amara and Lita sat down, still glowering at each other.  A slight
creak caught Amara's attention and she turned to look behind her,
but saw nothing.  'What was that?'

*******************************************************************

Sailor Moon flattened herself against the wall and sucked in a
breath.  Beside her, Tuxedo Mask gave her a strange look, but didn't
move.  After a second she relaxed.  "Amara almost saw me," she
whispered.  She had been right outside the window in the room the
Royalty was in when she had stepped wrong and the wall had creaked.
She got lucky, very lucky, that no one had come after her.  It would
have been hard to explain what she was doing there, not to mention
that if it had been one of the Outers she might have been seriously
injured.

Tuxedo Mask's concerned blue eyes (AN: Yep! Blue as Tuxie!), met
Sailor Moon's alarmed sapphire ones.  "It's okay if they had.
You've talked yourself out of anything, I don't think they would be
any different."  Tuxedo Mask laughed slightly as Sailor Moon swatted
him on the arm and folded her arms.  "But did you hear what they
said?"

Sailor Moon nodded once, her mood going sour.  "Yeah...they're
talking about trusting us or not trusting us.  Mother doesn't seem
to know which one, and the Outers are dead set against us already."

Tuxedo Mask shook his head.  "Sounds like them.  The Inners?"

"Neutral.  We've got a good chance at them believing us and not
asking any questions."  Sailor Moon smiled slightly and detransformed
into Serena.  "I don't want to try and go back there right now."

Mimicking her, Darien soon stood in Tuxedo Mask's place and wrapped
his arms around Serena's waist.  "Yeah...I could understand that..."
he whispered, his lips dangerously close to hers.  Call him crazy
if you will, but he would find the strangest times where the desire
to just kiss Serena was overwhelming and unstoppable.  This happened
to be one of those times.  So what if they were standing in the
middle of a hallway in the Palace, at least it was deserted.

Serena closed her eyes and awaited Darien's kiss, when they met,
she abandoned all thought and rationality and concentrated on him,
and him alone.

*******************************************************************

The meeting ended too briefly in Mina's eyes.  She hadn't had a
chance to put in what she had felt from Sailor Moon and Tuxedo Mask.
But she could wait and talk to the Queen about it later if she had
to.  Right now, all the young women and Endymion were on the way to
the dinning room, hoping for some lunch.  Mina's eyes suddenly got
impossibly wide and she stopped.  The others soon followed as they
stared at what was happening in the hallway ahead of them.

Jupiter sighed happily with stars in her eyes.  "That's so sweet!"
she squealed softly.

Amara shook her head, and couldn't help but smile.  'They shouldn't
be doing that in the middle of the hallway,' she thought.  'I hope
Queen Serenity is right about them not hearing anything.  I don't
think I could hurt them now.'

Raye smiled and brought her fingers to her lips, letting out a shrill
whistle.  "You two kiss anymore, and it's going to set the palace on
fire!" she yelled to Serena and Darien.

Serena and Darien immediately broke the kiss and pulled away,
blushing.

"RAYE!" Lita, Mina, Princess Serenity, Michelle and Amy yelled.
Queen Serenity sighed and shook her head at the Fire Warrior.

"Uh, well...um...that is..." Serena stuttered slightly, still
bright red.

Everyone, even Amara and Queen Serenity joined in the laughter
that rang through the hallway.  It was an unfamiliar giggle that
made them stop.  Queen Serenity turned and faced Sailor Saturn.
She had a hand over her mouth and look shocked.  "Hotaru?" she
asked.

Sailor Saturn bit her lip.  "I don't know what came over me...the
way they looked," she whispered as she looked back up at Serena and
Darien, "it was amusing."

"Good to know it was for someone," Darien muttered, only causing
more laughter and a half smile from Saturn.  Serena elbowed her
boyfriend in the ribs and gave him a dirty look.

"Ah, so we have to whipped men in our midst," Raye observed with
a laugh, earning a glare from Endymion as well as Darien.
*******************************************************************

~1996 AD~

Rose sighed and leaned back in her chair, thankful to have some
time off for once.  "How does Darien and Serena do this all the
time?!" she asked aloud.  "It's murder watching two children!"
Realization dawned on her and she frowned.  "Wait, they only had
to watch one, never two!  I've been cheated by that..." she sighed
and trailed off.  "Ugh.  I'm just going to have to hurt him when
he gets home," she told herself with a firm nod.

Right now, both Rini and Alec were at school, staying late to play
some sort of game, which gave her about a half-hour to herself.

"Rose, are you home?" Terren called from her bedroom as he came out.

Rose frowned.  'More like a half second.'  Quickly regaining her
composure, she called back to him, "Yeah!  I'm in the living room,
Terry!"

The gray cat strutted into the room, an expression of worry on his
face.  "You okay, Rosie?" he asked.

Rose nodded and looked around the apartment.  "Yeah...just worn out!
I can't believe Darien talked me into this!" she yelled with a mild
whine in her voice.  Terren opened his mouth to reply, but a quiet
word from Rose stopped.  "Say a word, Furball, and you'll be choking
down Spam for dinner."

*******************************************************************

Hotaru walked down the street with a slight bounce in her step.
As dumb as it sounded, she was being given charge of the young Prince
and Princess for the afternoon.  She had always liked Rini, but the
new one, Alec, was a mystery to her and she couldn't wait to get to
know him better.  She may be classified as the Soldier of Death
and Destruction, but she wasn't a monster; unless she was on the
battlefield.

As she approached the elementary school, a shiver ran up her spine,
and Hotaru stopped.  Looking around, her purple eyes surveyed the
area quickly, but she saw nothing.  A frown creased her mouth and
she started running towards the school.

She stopped when she saw the courtyard, and had to smile.  The
young royalty were running around, being chased by their friends,
and laughing gaily.  She giggled, temporarily forgetting about the
energy she had felt, and called to her charges.  "Rini!  Alec!
Time to go home!" she called while waving her hands.

Rini and Alec both stopped.  "Hi, Hotaru!" they called at the same
time as they waved to their friends and began running towards her.

Hotaru leaned down and smiled at them, but her voice was serious.
"We need to get going.  I feel a Tenma is nearby," she whispered.

Rini and Alec gulped and looked at each other.  They were about
to answer when the ever familiar screaming began and Hotaru's head
shot up in response.  "They're here!"

A tall girl with a bun on top of her head started running towards
them.  "Rini!  RUN!" Melissa yelled as she was suddenly hit by a
small, stray blast of energy and collapsed to the ground.

"MELISSA!" Rini screamed as she started to run towards her
friend.

Alec, however, grabbed her arms and held her back, shaking his
head.  "No.  Let's transform and help her!"

Hotaru took both of their hands and began running to the back of
one of the school buildings, where they could transform.

"MOON PRISM POWER!"

"SATURN PLANET POWER!"

Alec held up a silver rose and winked at his sister who giggled.

*******************************************************************

Michelle looked up from the book she was reading and then gazed out
the window.  Mina, who was over at Amara and Michelle's house with
Lita, trying to learn to cook, saw the expression on her face and
frowned.  "Michelle?  Is something wrong?"

Michelle nodded.  "The sent of the ocean is in the air..." she closed
her eyes and concentrated.  "They are attacking again."

Lita came out of the kitchen, her hands still covered in flour,
"What?!  You mean that they're attacking now?!" she exclaimed.

Amara came in from outside and she and Michelle exchanged glances.
"The wind is blowing differently...we should go."

At that moment, a shrill beep from each of the girls wrists and they
sighed.  "They were right..." Mina mumbled.

"Jupiter here," Lita said as she flipped open her communicator.
"Where is it this time?"

Sailor Saturn's face filled the screen and she watched out of the
corner of her eye as something ran off.  "It's at the Prince and
Princess's school.  There are many children around, please hurry."

*******************************************************************
They were losing.  The battle had only been going on for ten
minuets and they were losing.  Sailor Mars and Sailor Mercury were
the first to go down, seeing as though they were the first to
arrive.  Earth had quickly followed, and Venus after her.  Neo-
Tuxedo Mask and Neo-Sailor Moon were being protected by Sailor
Saturn and her Silent Wall and, thus far, were unharmed.  Her
energy was fading though.  She couldn't hold the wall up for long.

"JUPITER THUNDER STORM!"

"DEEP SUBMERGE!"

The monster, a seven-foot tall Tenma made entire of what looked
like blue velvet, absorbed the powers, as it had so many times
before, and launched them back at the two Soldiers, who dodged
them by a millisecond.

Jupiter's face was red, and her energy almost completely spent.
She had been fighting as hard as all of the others, but her anger
was pushing her energy out quicker than normal.  It was one thing
to attack her school, it was another to attack a school full of
small children who couldn't even run fast.

"WORLD SHAKING!"

The Tenma rolled its eyes, and dodged the attack before hurling
some of it's left over energy towards Uranus, slamming her against
a wall.  Jupiter rushed to Uranus, and took her pulse, but Uranus
pushed her sister in arms off and glowered at the Tenma.  "DAMN
YOU!" she exclaimed as she took out her Space Sword and charged at
it.  The Tenma simply waved her hand at the Sky Soldier and hurled
her into Saturn.

"URANUS!" Neptune screamed as she ran for her.

Jupiter looked back at Uranus before turning forward again.  Her
eyes grew wide when she saw the blue energy flying towards her, and
they closed when it knocked her down.  Neptune soon followed, and
the only two left standing were Neo-Tuxedo Mask and Neo-Sailor Moon.

"Okay...now this can't be good!" Neo-Tuxedo Mask exclaimed as he
pulled out a silver rose.  Neo-Moon rolled her eyes at him and
pulled her Tiara off of her head.

"NEO-MOON TIARA MAGIC!"

*******************************************************************

~992 AD~

The talking around her was happy, and Serena and Darien could help
but smile.  They were still being teased about the...incident in the
hallway, but it was slowly dying down.  Serena suddenly grabbed her
head and gasped suddenly before she slummed to the floor.

The talking immediately stopped and Darien bent down to her.
"SERENA!" he exclaimed as she grabbed her head with her hands.

A flash of light corrupted her vision for a moment and she saw her
friends lying prone on the ground, with only her son and daughter
still standing.  The vision lasted for but a moment before she
closed her eyes, and blacked out.

*******************************************************************

~Eternity~

Sailor Pluto gazed at the Time Stream and watched as the young
warriors began to stand up for themselves.  "The time is now."

*******************************************************************

~1996 AD~

Neo-Moon and Neo-Tuxedo Mask dodged several of the energy blasts
being thrown towards them.  Neither of them had been able to get a
good shot off to injure it.

Slowly, the others were healing and regaining themselves, but it
may not have been fast enough to defeat this Tenma.  Neo-Tuxedo
Mask could only figure that this one was so strong because of its
ability to absorb powers, and it had drawn much for the Soldiers.

"SILENCE GLAVE SURPRISE!"

The energy from Sailor Saturn hit the Tenma, rather than letting
it absorb it, causing it to crash into a nearby tree.  Neo-Tuxedo
Mask watched as the Tenma and Sailor Saturn began facing off,
dodging and parrying each blow.  He closed his eyes, and prayed
for a miracle.

"Dead Scream."

A miracle in the form of a deadly ball of purple energy hit the
Tenma from the back and it collapsed to the ground.  "Pluto!" Saturn
exclaimed in surprise.  "What is this?" she asked, remembering
that the Solider of Time had sworn she wasn't getting involved in
this fight.  Pluto didn't answer, but as the others stood and
groaned out their miseries, Saturn knew what to do.  "Yes."

A purple aura surrounded the Soldier of Death and she concentrated.
She was reborn to protect her Prince, Princess, and this planet.
The Outers were originally given more power than the Inners because
of their different missions, but now, the Outers were weaker.
Something inside of her released and she looked to see her
transformation pen floating out in front of her.  The other
Outers, even Pluto, were the same.

Everyone else looked on in awe as Saturn opened her mouth.
Saturn's voice seemed haunted as she spoke.  "Now you will listen...
four centuries have we guarded this planet from those who wish it
harm.  We were given greater powers, and never associated with
the others.  Our greatest strength will be our greatest downfall...
we shall over come that weakness, and become level with the other 
Soldiers...neither one greater nor less in power."  She raised her
Silence Glave up.  "We shall fight with them, as one!"

The symbols of the Outer Soldiers came forward on their brows and
their pens took a different shape.  While they still held their
respective colors, the symbol was no longer engraved in anything,
but simply the top of the pen, unlike before.

"URANUS COSMIC POWER!"

"NEPTUNE COSMIC POWER!"

"SATURN COSMIC POWER!"

"PLUTO COSMIC POWER!"

The Inners looked on in shock as the Outers retransform.  Their
uniforms were the same, but the aura that surrounded them was the
exact same as the Inners, power wise.  They were equal...for the
first time since the dawn of the Silver Millennium, the Inner and
Outer Sailor Soldiers were on equal basis, neither stronger than
the other; with the exception of Sailor Saturn, who had always
been the strongest Soldier.

"What is this?" the Tenma questioned with fear in its eyes.

Sailor Uranus opened her eyes and smirked at the Tenma.  She
raised both of her hands above her head, a yellow glow formed
there.

"URANUS..."

Wind whirled around her and blew her skirt and hair around.

"SKY..."

She turned around once and brought her hand out in front of her.

"GALE!"

A roaring yellow energy of wind came from her hand and blasted
towards the Tenma.

At the same time, Neptune had brought out her Deep Aqua Mirror and
held it in front of her.

"NEPTUNE..."

An ocean wave appeared inside of the mirror and she held it with
two hands as she turned to her side.

"OCEAN..."

She placed one hand on her hip, and the other held the Mirror out at
arm length.

"CREST!"

A tide of water sprung from the mirror and combined with Uranus'
attack.  Both attacks collided with the Tenma and seconds later,
all that was left was a pile of dust.

*******************************************************************

Alec collapsed onto his Aunt's couch and lay down.  "Ugh...I no one
said fighting was this hard!" he complained.

Rose walked into the room, with Rini close behind her, and rolled
her eyes.  "Get used to it.  Until your parents get back, this is
all we are going to be doing for awhile."

Rini yawned and sat down on the floor.  "Yeah...but that was really
scary!" she told her Aunt.  "And it's great that the Outers have new
powers!"  She pondered this for a moment, trying to remember what
had been said before everyone had left.  Saturn had said that while
the other had new powers, she did not, as she was already the
strongest, her existing powers were simply made stronger than they
already were.  Pluto had disappeared right after the battle, calling
to the Inners to get some rest for their injuries, and she did not
say if she had a new power, or what it was.

Rose moaned as she sat on the couch beside Alec.  "Yeah...why
couldn't they have gotten them before this battle?!  I feel like
a football player sat on me or something."

*******************************************************************

~992 AD~

Serena moaned and sat up.  Her eyes felt heavy and her head was
pounding, but slowly getting better as her eyes adjusted to where
she was.  She was in her room on the Moon Kingdom, and it was
already dark outside.  Serena furrowed her brow and threw her
covers off.  Setting her feet on the ground, she padded softly to
the window, where she saw the darkness outside and the earth
being the only light.  "What happened?" she asked herself.

"You passed out shortly after all of us started walking to lunch,"
a voice said behind her.

Serena gasped and turned to face Sailor Saturn, who was leaning
against one of the walls in her room, near the door.  "Saturn!"

Saturn looked up and over at Serena, something akin to a smile
gracing her lips.  "I can't put my finger on it yet, Serena, but
I do know you.  I know you as several people...don't I?  I
promised the others I'd watch you."  Her almost smile got wider.
"It was all we could do to get him out of this room from watching
you."

Saturn walked up to Serena, her smaller frame seamed threatening
to the larger girl.  "I will find out, Serena.  I feel something
about you that screams danger."

Before Serena could blink, Saturn was gone.  "Oh god..." she
whispered.

Seconds later, Darien came running through the door and swept
Serena into an embrace.  "Are you alright?" he asked her frantically.

Serena snapped out of her stupor and nodded.  "Yeah!  I don't know...
what happened.  I thought I saw Rini and Alec in danger...and the
others were down and couldn't help them."

Darien nodded his head and held up his communicator.  "There was.
I just talked to Rose a few minutes ago.  Apparently the Outers
powered up, but everyone was down for a little while.  What you
saw really did happen," he said in amazement.

Serena bit her lip and reached inside her dimensional pocket,
pulling out her Brooch.  She touched the underside of it before
flipping it over and examining it.  It was still a star with one
gold and one silver gem in the center, but now, it had the four
different Outers colors surrounding the two centered gems.  The
Outers colors were almost touching the edge of the star, though.

"Incredible," Serena breathed as she kept her eyes glued to the
brooch.

"No."

Serena looked up, startled, at her boyfriend.  "Darien?"

Darien sat down on her bed and looked straight into Serena's eyes.
"*YOU* are incredible," he whispered to her.  Serena blushed and
smiled at him, unable to say anything.

*******************************************************************

Serenity knocked on Serena's door smiled while waiting for it to
open up.  Seconds later, Serena opened up the door and smiled at
her.  "Good evening, Serenity!  What can I do for you?"

"Well...I just wanted to make sure you were doing okay, what with
what happened earlier...that and it's time for the nightly chat!"
she exclaimed as she grabbed Serena's hand and started pulling her
down the hall.

"ACK!  Wait!" Serena exclaimed as she broke Serenity's grip and ran
to Darien, who was standing in the doorway looking quite amused.
Serena turned and ran back to Darien, giving him one last hug before
going with Serenity.

*******************************************************************

Serena sat nervously between Serenity and Mina on the floor of
Serenity's room.  She bit her lip as she awaited the first question
of the night.  According to Serenity, this was a nightly ordeal;
all of them would get together and talk about the day.  And because
Serena was "Fresh meat" as Lita so kindly put it, she was getting
grilled on her life.  However, she had been prepared for all of
this and, thankfully, most of the questions were centered around
hers and Darien's relationship.  Now that she didn't have to lie
about.

"How did you meet?" Mina asked excitedly as she leaned against the
pillow behind her.  "It must have been love at first sight since you
two are Soul Mates!"

Serena blushed and shook her head.  "Umm...Actually...we hated each
other for months."

"WHAT?!" Raye, Lita and Mina exclaimed in shock.  Serenity looked
shocked, and Amy was pretending she wasn't.

Serena sighed and laughed a little.  "Well, you see, I had an exam
that day in a class, and on my way back to my home, I decided that
the grade was too horrible to show my mom, so I threw it over my
shoulder and it hit Darien on the head!"  The girls began laughing
and Serena thought she heard Raye mutter something about Serenity's
habits.  "So he suddenly yelled, 'That hurt Meat-Blonde!'" she covered
quickly.

The girls gaped at her.  "He started calling you names?" Amy asked
with interest.

Serena nodded and smiled.  "It went on like that for months, and
then one day, we just clicked.  It had always been there, but we
both had to much pride and arrogance to show it."  Serena was
blushing and she sighed.  "I'm glad we have it though."

All five of the girls sighed and Serena turned to Serenity.  "So
how did you and the Prince start out?" she asked with a wicked grin
on her face, knowing exactly how it had happened.

Serenity started, and then bit her lip.  "Can we...not go into
that?" she squeaked out.

Mina and Lita were howling with laughter and couldn't seem to
stop.  "I'll never forget the look on Rose's face when we saw you
and Endymion k-" Serenity's hand went over Raye's mouth and she
glared at her.

"Hee-hee...we aren't going to mention it, are we *MARS*?!" Serenity
hissed out, not really wanting the girls to tell it from their
point of view.

Amy laughed a little and turned back to Serena.  "When was your
first kiss?"

Mina popped up with her index finger in the air.  "Cause we all
know when Serenity's was!"  A pillow came out of nowhere and hit
Mina in the face and she got ready to throw it back, but decided
to wait until Serena finished telling her story.

If what had happened before had been blushing, now was nothing
compared to before.  "Well...there was a Masquerade Ball, and
both Darien and I attended, but we didn't know who the other was..."
she trailed off for a second.  "We danced together and later, I
accidentally drank some alcohol, and it pretty much knocked me
out.  Darien picked me up and took me to the balcony and then..."
she trailed off and sighed, lost in her memories.

"Oh, how sweet!" Serenity cooed.  Everyone sighed her agreement
before Mina got an evil smile on her face.

"Yes sweet...much like REVENGE!" she yelled as she hurled her pillow
at Serenity and hit her in the head, knocking her over.  Serenity
saw red and picked up her own pillow, throwing it towards Mina, but
hitting Lita instead.  Within seconds, everyone, including Amy,
was throwing pillows at each other.

*******************************************************************

Sailor Uranus shook her head at her Princess from out side of the
balcony.  "She's too sweet," she told Neptune.  "Look at how lax
all of them are, and the enemy could attack at any given moment!"

Neptune nodded her agreement.  "Yes, but they are still innocent,
pure and free of any evil.  We have seen things they shall never
see," she spoke.

"Do not be so sure of that," Sailor Saturn warned as she jumped
onto the balcony.  Uranus glowered at her, but Saturn pretended
not to notice.  "For the pure and light hearted attract the dark
evils who wish to conquer it."  She gazed at her Princess and then
at Serena.  "Like Serena."

Uranus and Neptune snapped to attention and looked at Saturn
hastily.  "Are you saying that she is evil?" Uranus asked hurriedly.

"Tell us!" Neptune demanded.

Saturn shook her head.  "No, she isn't, as far as I can tell.
There is something familiar about her, but I think it is the
Princess's kind heart that I see in the girl."  She watched as
Serena hit Raye over the head with a pillow and then run out of
the way of being walloped herself.  Saturn narrowed her eyes.
"If only I knew what it is..."

*******************************************************************

Opal crushed the report that Topaz had delivered to her, not a
half-hour ago, in her palm and swore.  "Now they are all 'Cosmic'
power," she murmured to herself angrily.  "I was trying to prevent
that!  CHLORITE!" she cried.

In seconds, Chlorite appeared, kneeling, before is mistress.  "Yes,
My Princess?"

Anger still flowing freely in her veins, Opal's colorless eyes
glared down at the man.  "I want you to go to the twentieth
century and supervise Topaz and his battles, Chlorite," she
instructed.

Chlorite jumped up, startled, and began go protest.  "But, Mistress-"

"SILENCE!" Opal yelled as she jumped up.  "I will here nothing from
you!  GO NOW!"

Chlorite bit his tongue and nodded.  "Yes, my Princess," he
whispered as he vanished from sight and reappeared on the other
side of the wall.  He smashed his fist into the wall and glowered.
'How dare she take me off of this!  I will destroy those two if it
is the last thing I do!  For those my Princess has lost, I will
destroy them!'

Back on the other side, Opal was unaware of the fit Chlorite was
having.  She smiled and said to the person who was now kneeling in
front of her.  "You, Almandite, will be the General who shall destroy
the beauty of the Silver Millennium!"

The man stood and gave a chuckle, his long red hair swaying slightly
as his deadly red eyes smiled at her.  "Yes, Princess."

To be continued...
