CHAPTER 9

As Kazeko came closer to the girls, she was stopped by Tuxedo Kamen.

"Out of my way, Cape Boy!" she breathed at him.

"I will not permitte you to harm these girls. If you wish to fight someone, then fight me." he told her, as he held her back with his cane.

"Get lost Jerk or I'll kill you first." Kazeko threaten and swung her sword at him.

"Kazeko, stop this. You'll get yourself hurt or killed!" Gaia cried out. Kazeko, who was full of mixed emotions, didn't listen to her sister's pleading.

Then suddenly, "Moon Tiara... ACTION!" and everyone stopped at once.

"Good, know that I have your attention. You'll all listen!"

"Who are you to tell us what to do!" yelled Kazeko.

"Well because," and a figure slowly came out of the shadows "For one, I'm Neo Queen Serenity and for two, I'm the Sailor Warrior fighting for love and justice, Eternal Sailor Moon! Tsukini... tsukini ka... I forgot... no, wait I remember. Tsukini kawate, oshokyo." Smiling Eternal Moon added with a "V" sign, "I've always wanted to say that again!"

"Eternal Sailor Moon?" a puzzled Gaia said. She had forgotten about the fight.

"If you're Sailor Moon, then who's the girl in our hide-out?" asked a confused Kazeko. She too had forgotten about the fight.

"She's Sailor Moon too," Eternal Moon answered "but she comes from the past."

"I don't believe you." Kazeko cried. "You probably picked some girl off the street and told her to act as Sailor Moon."

"Kazeko, please belive me. The girl in your hide-out is Sailor Moon. And she did not kill your sister." Eternal Moon

told her.

"Shut your mouth! What do you know? Were you there when she died?"

"Yes, I was." Eternal Moon said saddly.

Surprised by the answer, Gaia had to know the truth. But before she had the chance to say anything, Kazeko attacked the woman.

"You little wentch!" Kazeko yelled as Eternal Moon hit the ground. "Do you think I'm dumb? I should rip you apart for such a thought. The rest of you stay were you are or she'll die."

As all this was going on, ChibiUsa just stared at her friend as she laught hastaricly.

"Mizuko's not dead, ha ha ha ha! I haven't lost her. Ha ha ha ha!"

"Fira, I'm all happy for you and everything, but shouldn't we hurry up." ChibiUsa asked her friend. Fira stopped laughting and became very serious. She then closed her eyes and concentrated.

"Plasma... Telaport!" As Fira said this, blue flames suddenly appeared, and formed the shape of Mizuko. When the flames were all gone, Fira ran to her sister and huged her.

"Fira, what's going on? What are you two doing in my room?" Mizuko asked.

Falling to Mizuko's feet ChibiUsa pleaded, "Mizuko-san, please I beg of you, free Sailor Moon."

"Princess, please stand up, I have every intention in helping out."

"Oh, thank you!" ChibiUsa said and gave Mizuko a hug, caseing her to turn bright red. After Fira told her sister what they were doing, Mizuko told them of her suspetions of Kazeko, and that there may be a huge misunderstanding some where.

"So let's get a move on." she told them, snapping her fingers, which set Sailor Moon free, and they were off.

When they returned to the battle field, they found everyone had stopped fighting.

"OK, why does everyone look like a bunch of statues?" asked ChibiUsa.

"Because if they move, your mother dies." Kazeko told her, as she showed Serenity(the power of Kazeko's wind was too strong for the crystol and it reversed the trasformation)in her Funnel Storm attack.

"Let my mother go!" ChibiUsa shouted.

"Kazeko, why are you doing this?" Fira asked.

"Why, because she killed Esumerodo and Mizuko. That's why." Kazeko said as she let the the funnel grow smaller.

"OK first of all, I did not kill Esumerodo and secondly your sister, Mizuko, is right here. Now you will release the queen or..." Moon started to say.

"Or else what, you'll kill me. Then what, you'll kill Gaia and Fira?" Kazeko interrupted. "Not by my watch, you won't." She released Serenity, then turned her attack on Moon, but stopped.

"I have a better idea. We'll duel." she said smiling devishly. "If I win, which I will, you will die and our sister will be avenged. But if you win I'll listen to your little story, then we'll leave."

Now let me tell you what happened to King Endymion, for as you may have noticed, he did not join the fight. Why you ask? Because as he fallowed his wife out the throne room, the doors slamed shut. Eternal Moon tried to get them to open but failed. When Endymion told her to go on without him, she refused. He then told her he'd be fine and that he'd join her as soon as he found a way out. So there he was trapped and no way out. As he returned to the thrones, he spyed a woman sitting by them.

"Who are you?" he demanded.

"My name is Yanagi." she told him.

"And what do you went?" he asked bitterly.

"I'd like my daughters to return home."

"Did you send them here?"

"I did. Why?" she asked.

"Because they're running a mock. That's why."

"What do you mean?"

As Endymion explained to Yanagi all that has happened, she was shocked. Her daughters misbehaving was just, well, unbelivable.

"I'm terribly sorry for what they have done. We just wanted to know the truth. If you know where they are, please tell me, because they owe us an explanation." she said.

When he told her here the girls were, she released the seal on the door and they headed out. As they reached the gardens, they saw that everyone was wachting some event. In the distance Yanagi recognized the sound of swords colliding. As she pushed her way through the crowd, she gave a shout, "ENOUGH!" and the crowd parted. Gaia reconized her mother.

"Mom!" she cried. "Why are you here?"

"Because you girls are taking too bloody long. I sent you here to gather information about your sister's death. Not to starte a war."

"The war was Kazeko's idea. She trick us into beliving that Fira was in danger." Mizuko told her mother. Yanagi looked at her daughters and demanded an explanation.

"Then why don't we go to the console chamber, were we can all be comfortable." Serenity said.

Once in the console chamber, everyone sat down and waited in silence. It was Yanagi who spoke first.

"OK, now that we're comfortable, will someone tell me how Esumerodo died. I'd like to tell her friends and the rest of the family. But before that I would like to know what the hell was going on here." she said.

So the girls told her every thing. About when they arrived and asked for the where abouts of Sailor Moon, to kidnapping the princess.

"You did what!" Yanagi interrupted. "Why did you do that?"

"Because we thought it would bring Sailor Moon out of hiding." Kazeko said.

"Hehehe, Baka. She was right in front of you the hole time." ChibiUsa said.

"And you would be the princess." Yanagi said turning to the teenager.

"Yes, m'am."

"Explaine to me what you just said."

"A long time ago, my mother, Neo Queen Serenity, was once known as Tsukino Usagi and she protected the planet as Sailor Moon." ChibiUsa told them.

"Did you tell my daughters this."

"Yes, but they chose to ignore me." Serenity said sadly.

"Alright, go on." Yanagi said. As the girls continued, Yanagi looked around her, everyone was listening and looked very angry as the tale went on. When they finish, Yanagi looked at them.

"And now you will apologies to everyone."

"We're sorry."

Before anyone did anything, Pluto appeared and pointed out that it was time for some of them to leave. At the same time Serenity and ChibiUsa collapsed.

"What's going on?" Fira asked worried about her friend.

"Sailor Moon and her friends have stayed to long and are casing a disturbens in Time. This is why they must leave. Then and only then will every thing be restored to normal." So the gang from the past said goodbye and were gone. With the past Moon gone ChibiUsa went back to her real name.

"Before we begine, I'd like to say, that I'm sorry for your lost and I hope that what you are about to hear today will explaine every thing." Endymion said.

"Thank You. I hope so too." answered Yanagi and Serenity began the tale.

"Esumerodo was part of a group who called themselves 'The Black Moon Famile' and their leadder was a shadowy figure named Wiseman." Yanagi notice Usagi shoder at this name.

"As Esumerodo went with what he told them to do, she fell in love with one of her colleges. A guy by the name of Prince Demando. His plan was to rule the universe and she wented to be his queen. Wiseman figured this out and tricked her into wearing a crown made out of pure dark power. The moment she put it on, the power consumed her and turned her into a giant dragon. We had no choise but to distroy the creature." Kazeko was about to say something, but her mother stoped her.

"As we battled the Wiseman, my daugther and I defeted him and avenged your daugther's death." Serenity ended and let a couple of tears fall from her eyes. Yanagi gave a little bow of thanks and cried. As she calmed down, her daugthers huged her and then Serenity gave her a hug.

"I'm sorry, it's just so nice to finaly know what happened to her." Yanagi said while wiping some tears away. "And know as promised we'll leave. We have to prepare for her sending."

With a little bit more tears, Yanagi and her daugthers said goodbye. Usagi invited Fira to come back and visite, her sisters were welcome to joing her if they wanted to, Fira said she'd like that and the two friends huged. As everyone watched them leave, Usagi suddenly realised she had homework to do and ran off, once again almost nocking over a vase, her parents shaking their heads.
