Setsuna was trying her best to catch up to where Chibiusa and Hotaru had wandered off to in the thick crowd of people surrounding vendors. Slightly flustered with the massive amount of people surrounding her as she tried to pass through to no avail. She came to an abrupt stop. Purposely making herself take a moment to pause. Closing her eyes to not only calm herself also to focus her mind on recalling the outfits that 'Small Lady' and Hotaru wore that day.

Once the images of their attire came to her, a sense of her life force calmed her into a zen like state of mind to where she was no longer feeling panic or anxiety due to the large crowds and noise. Upon opening her eyelids, allowing her eyes to focus on her surroundings. She appeared to be more grounded and sure of her destination. Everyone else passing by looked like blurred pictures moving at a quickened rate. No true definition of their features unless, Setsuna took a moment to look at their faces. That was when time seemed to come to a slow stand-still.

Certain colors of kimonos', particular hairstyles and familiar voice tones was what Setsuna was focused on finding as time would come to an occasional standstill when she thought she had found whom she had been looking for. It was the sudden whooshing sound of someone moving much faster than herself, that caused Setsuna to break focus when someone dressed in pink ran past her in haste!

User Image


Surrounding Setsuna was a lapse in time where things were moving at a much slower rate, even though the girl moved with precision through haste. The slow motion movement through her sphere, caused a matrix environment to form between the two. A bubble-sphere formed between Setsuna and the girl in a pink kimono causing a slowed down flow of time to take place. The mixture of the girl in pink's hasty-speed with Setsuna's allowed the time for Setsuna to focus on what the girl in pink was wearing and the fine details inlaid along the kimono, to the girls' expression, her features, the girl's demeanor as well as the general direction to where she was moving in. Whether or not that was the choice the girl decided to go. Or that it was the 'fight or flight response' to a situation the girl in pink found herself in.

Once the girl managed to break through the 'Time Sphere' everything sped up for her causing her to a brief boost of forward movement. Following the direction of where the girl in pink to where she was running towards. It was at that moment she realized that she was running towards her friends that she had been looking for! From Setsuna's perspective the girl in pink was running in a blurred motion past Chibiusa, Hotaru and Seto. And out of all of those three, the girl in pink managed to bump into Hotaru which caused time to come to a stand still. Everything nearby where Setsuna stood came to a complete standstill as her red eyes had settled upon the impact the girl made against Hotaru.

Setsuna couldn't hear what was being said between the trio but did manage to take notice of some kind of a device in the girl in the pink kimono's hands. Her body language screamed that something was wrong. Seeing the bow towards Hotaru as in an apology? She dropped the time sphere she had up, as time appeared to speed up to a more normal pace as the mass of people swallowed up her image in a sea of people just minding their own business and enjoying the festival activities in the square. Following behind the crowd of people, Setsuna had her eyes locked on their small gathering of friends as they approached the gate. And the calling from Chibiusa towards Usagi and Mamoru was priceless. Causing a small smirk to appear along Setsuna's lips watching the scenery unfold before all of them.

"Usagi! USAGI! Mamo-chan!"
"Teehee~ you're stuck out there! Sorry, Chibi-Usa, only authorized personnel are allowed in here! Sorry, you aren---"
"The guard will let you in. You'll be able to come through that way."
"Thank you!"
"Yay! Let's join them!"

The small interaction between Usagi and Chibiusa brought back a wave of memories with their present entertaining fanatics. No real barrier could separate those two. If it wasn't obvious before it was now. Like mother, like daughter. Usagi and Chibiusa were so much alike! In so many ways - even though neither one would openly admit their similarities.

"Ah! Pluu! You're here too?! When did you arrive?"

It was the sound of Small Lady's voice that pulled Setsuna out of her thoughts as she turned her attention towards the princess. "I was looking for you all in the crowd of vendors. Were you able to get something to eat while enjoying the festivities?" she replied, smiling warmly at Chibiusa. Placing her right hand over her heart, she felt a warmness settle in when she was being spoken to by Small Lady. There was always a special place in her heart for the young princess. Kneeling down so that she was closer to Chibiusa's height the two of them conversed in light pleasantries.

"It's been a while since we were all together like this. It's rare these days."

Ami Mizuno walked up beside Luna and agreed, it had been far too long since all of them managed to get together. "I agree Luna. I understand that we all have busy schedules these days with school and jobs. But we seriously need to make an effort to spend some time with one another." Trading a look with Luna knowing that they understood one another.

User Image


Ami was worried about Rei in how she really didn't provide an explanation as to what was bothering her. Looking away from Luna for a moment, she cast her gaze among each of their friends gathering together. That was when she took notice of Yaten and Kira off to the side talking among each other. There was something ... sad about those two. And yet, at the same time? Something felt different. Frowning slightly she felt the pull to investigate this feeling she had and yet, at the same time she did not want to feel as though she was intruding in on what was going on between the two individuals separated from the rest of them. Being casual about reaching up to brush away some bangs away from her eyes, Ami's fingertips nonchalantly activated her visor which allowed to see a better defined picture of what was going on around them. And as to what might be considered environmentally unstable and/or dangerous. Every time she cast her glance towards Kira and Yaten, she kept receiving some odd readings along her visor. Which caused Ami to fall silent as she read the computer language across the visor screen. Trying to identify what she saw before saying anything to alert the others.

User Image


"Sorry about last night, I took off in such a hurry. I never got the chance to thank you for healing Kira, and..."
"No worries. I understand you had to get Kira to safety quickly while we finished up the youma. Youโ€™re welcome! Iโ€™m glad I was able to help her as much as I was able to."
"If you both hadn't been there in the moment Kira was alone she would have come out far worse than she did."
"Oh! It's okay! I'm just glad I spotted her! I was on my way over to the Sailor Senshi when I saw Kira come out of the concert stadium building. Star Healer was the one who saved her though, she's the real hero."

Ami had been so focused on looking at the numbers flooding along the inside of her visor that was directed over at Yaten and Kira. When she happened to notice that Rei was no longer among their gathering. Taking her blue eyes off of the duo in the distance, settling on Rei's positioning.

"Luna?" Reaching into her kimono pocket, withdrawing her personal compact computer. "I think there's more going on here than some realize. Then there are those whom have taken notice to what is different about our surroundings and people here. And are trying to make a discovery as to what is going on." Gesturing off to where Rei was located at, away from their gathering and on guard. "I think Rei sees something that the rest of us cannot. As for myself, I am getting a weird and unknown reading off the charts surrounding Kira and a few others? That are possibly, nearby? I don't think we are alone out here. I think... we may have a situation on our hands soon, if something doesn't take action to fix this energy spike at this one location, if you know what I mean by making that statement."

Ami felt like she didn't have to give too much of an in depth explanation to Luna, she gathered that from what Luna stated earlier that something was here with them. As to what it was. Remained a mystery for the time being. Moving away from Luna and the others, Ami moved up alongside where Rei was standing guard, which was a trait she knew well of her friend. "Rei?" Not wanting to spook her friend, as she could tell that she was focused on her chi energy at the present time. Possibly using a location spell? Or something along those lines.

User Image


"You saw something, didn't you?" Seeing as to how Rei appeared to be locked on a certain direction away from the others.

User Image


Feeling the warmth of someone standing beside her, Rei turned to see Ami standing there. As to how long Ami had been there, she couldn't tell, because her focus was elsewhere. To show that she was aware of her surroundings, she acknowledged Ami's question with the subtle nodding of her head. Knowing that her friend wanted answers, it was at that exact moment she heard a voice come into her mind, clear as day. Rei's reaction to Seiya's voice caused her amethyst eyes to dilate in response to the voice, the releasing of a soft gasp in surprise followed thereafter.

User Image


"Rei? If you can hear me I found something out... Alita made a software on her phone which tells us who the youma's are and one is Kira's teacher, and the other is the guy that Hotaru and Chibi-Odango are with."

A soft, "Wow. . ." escaped from Rei's breath after hearing Seiya's thoughts projected to her. Rei's connection with Seiya bonded with them then. Rei originally was only able to connect with those whom have similar abilities (i.e. Mamoru, Michiru, Hotaru) like herself with the closeness that Rei has shared with Seiya recently. Her telepathic ability formed a bonding connection between the two of them then. Which means. From here on out, Seiya will always have a connection to Rei to where the two of them can have a conversation with their minds by use of their bonded telepathy-connection with each other.

Projecting her telepathic thoughts in return to Seiya then, ~* I can hear you Seiya. *~ There was a comforting warmth with her words. Happy that they were able to connect in that manner. ~* Alita? *~ Realizing that Seiya meant the girl in the pink kimono that was being introduced to them earlier by Liara before she darted off. Listening to all that Seiya mentioned about a computer software program that Alita had made on her cellphone to basically detect the enemy (i.e. youmas, etc.). Was definitely surprising and welcomed! The thought that someone out there that they just met has a scientific mind to build a device to detect youmas! She could almost hear the majority of the group dancing on the ceiling for when they found this information out as well! Alita would be welcomed with that kind of technology!

At the mentioning of Kira's teacher and Hotaru's boyfriend Seto BOTH being youmas was alarming! Suffice to say!

"We can't attack them as they are currently, and we can't turn them into youmas without positive energy, unlike right now. Tai and I are going to sing. Whether or not Yaten is going to join us, I don't know but Alita seems to think that if we do this, the youmas...phages... will appear. I'm going to trust what she says is true, so we need to be prepared for whatever comes. We're on our way back now."

~* I understand and I'm on alert. Oh and Seiya? If you need backup on the stage - I'm here if you need me. *~ In response to if Yaten was unavailable. Depending on his next moves with Kira and what plans they had.

"...Y-You love me?"

Yaten pulled back with a heart warming smile as he gazed back at Kira in a loving manner. Lifting his left hand to cup the side of Kira's face, "Of course, I love you." Not understanding why Kira wasn't understanding him. "I love you with all that I am, Kira."

Yaten was sincere when he apologized to Kira, he meant every word.

"...Yaten...you have nothing to be sorry for. I just don't understand why things happened the way that they have, but I'm glad to know you are okay... and..."

The way Kira looked back at him, made Yaten feel unusually heavy, as if negative energy waves began settling along his shoulders starting to weigh him down. Subtly mind you. The negative energy waves were literally bleeding off of Kira, as tiny tendrils started to hook their way in along skin, drawing him in. Yaten found that he couldn't help but look back at Kira, trying to understand why she wasn't hearing him, let alone listening.

"Your disguise... I can't see any... damage..."

While he tried to focus on her then, Yaten couldn't help shake the feeling that he was being drawn into a fog causing his focus to be drawn elsewhere. Taking a minute of pause, he found that he was really taking notice of Kira then. His hand still gently resting alongside of Kira's face as she gazed at him. The moment Kira's eyes dropped downwards as if something caught her teal eyes. . .

This weighted sensation. . . felt heavier than before. Was it due to lack of sleep? Stress?

"Hm?"

An almost calming sensation of Kira's hand moving with a gentle flowing gesture along his ceremonial robes then, drew Yaten into an unknown feeling. As if everything was starting to become muddled and hazy. Feeling the weight of Kira's eyes luring him to glance upwards, he found that he could not take his eyes off of Kira's then. As if he was being drawn into a trance.

Quote:
"I'm leaving you. I am going elsewhere, without you. You are not my love, my stars, my heart."


Completely frozen like a statue at the sound of his own voice sounding twisted and spouting evil things in jest towards Kira then.

"W-What? What are you saying?...You're... leaving me?..."

An expression of shock became plastered across Yaten's features. And yet, Kira could not see the expression of shock and surprise at the words spoken then. Huh? Mortified at hearing words, he did not speak out loud towards Kira then. In his thoughts, Yaten was absolutely floored that he heard his voice but his mouth was not moving! 'NO WAY would I say something like that to Kira!! What is going on?!'

"It's been a while, Kira-chan..."
"A-Ali?!"

The weighted sensation that had it's tendrils lacing around him like a weighted blanket appeared to ease up causing Yaten to be more coherent to his surroundings. It was at that very moment he saw Alita come into view. Seeing that she had somehow walked into the setting with a warming light that was inviting. "Alita?" Yaten said in hushed tones, watching Alita move to where she was now standing before Kira then. He had to do a double take as he saw both Kira and Alita standing face to face. Just the first impression of seeing them standing together, would make some think that they were identical twins!

It was the subtle things that made it apparent that they were not. Their skin tone and their eye color, was perhaps the only things that seemed different among the two of them. Finding that he was taking a step back, the weighted feeling that had it's pull upon him started to fade before its' sensation really started to weigh in with it's teeth locked in firmly along his skin.

"I've missed you so much..."
"Me too...I'm so sorry... I haven't been in contact with you..."

The air surrounding where Yaten stood felt a little less thin, as he watched the two girls embrace each other and obviously speaking to one another. Yaten almost felt as if he was intruding in on a special moment being shared between them then. Feeling as if this was a cue for him to back away and give them privacy, he started to move but found that he didn't want to depart. Not right away, unless that is...that he saw that they needed time and space.

"....W-What...what are you doing here? Where is..."

Seeing that Kira was the first to break away from the embrace and start asking a slew of questions towards Alita. As Kira looked away from a familiar, warm face, she seemed distant as she cast her gaze across the way at the others. Yaten's emerald eyes followed the direction to where Kira had glanced towards then returned back towards Alita and their interaction with each other.

"What are they.. doing here?"
"Liara, Yaten-sama, and I came together, we all bumped into each other, and I got to talk with Seiya-sama and Taiki-sama just before. The others were here when we arrived, but they are here for you, Kira-chan."

Something was going on. As to what it was, Yaten had no idea, other than the fact that Kira was acting strangely. And somehow he had learned the art of "throwing his voice" (ventriloquist) in an evil manner towards Kira. How he managed to do that was beyond him. Or was it the stress of everything going on that was finally getting to him? YES! That's what it was. Stress! Surely, that was a valid explanation as to why he heard strange things spouted with his voice when he knew that he would never say such things like that to Kira!

"Yaten-sama...?"

At the moment Alita addressed Yaten. Alita's voice instantly became a 'wearable hug'. heart A light at the end of the tunnel, that he had found himself in with the odd and strange vibing sensation he was gathering from Kira then. Alita's presence was welcomed, for he trusted her.

Alita approached him by holding out her cell phone towards him. Yaten stood very still for what seemed to be a long hot minute. As he traded a glance from Alita's cell phone then back up at Alita in confusion. Mainly to what she was trying to show him. Taking another moment of time to look down in question to the screen of what looked like people but in colored outlines?

"These two people are carriers, they are the youmas. This software was designed to help Liara, I wanted to help her..."

The moment Alita explained that the colored outlined people were youmas, Yaten's guard struck up another notch!

"...This software is based on body temperature, blood flow, heart rate and picks up on anything unusual. I overheard Kira before... so I decided to investigate and since the night she was attacked, that youma left traces in Kira's bloodstream."

Listening to Alita's explanation even though he wasn't exactly tech savy, that was Taiki's department. Alita had Yaten's full attention. Standing there in awe, as he traded a glance at the two individuals lit up in particular colors. The moment Alita stopped briefly in her explanation, Yaten glanced up seeing that Alita was shifting gears in how she was simplifying the information to where he would be able to grasp and understand. The patience she had, was awesome. Yaten was very appreciative that Alita took the time to explain what he was seeing and realizing that she made this!

"You did this? Wow... Alita you are very smart and talented. This is amazing! You are amazing! Liara is very blessed to have you in her life. Remember that, Alita. You are special, don't ever allow anyone to say otherwise." When Alita mentioned the youma attack on Kira and it's powers? were in Kira's blood stream everything seemed to make sense. Which provided a valid explanation as to why he felt strangely around Kira then and heard his voice, not his voice but an evil thrown voice like his own but not.

This was ...intense!

Quote:
Getting the photo of the two of them standing and showing a comparison, Yaten was fine, greens and blues. Kira's body was glowing purple on the outside and the inside was all red.


"I've told Taiki-sama and Seiya-sama... youmas appear when there is a lot of energy to steal, right? I suggested to the Three Lights that since the crowd is getting anxious because Kira has gone... they need some positive energy. Taiki-sama and Seiya-sama are going to help bring out the youmas and sing. This will work, the youmas...or rather... phages should transform."

The images on the screen shifted to himself and Kira as he stood quietly listening to the explanation. He was fascinated but knew in the back of his mind, Taiki would be all geeked out in hearing this and wanting to be more involved than an explanation! Why did Yaten suddenly feel the urge to play match-maker? A small smirk appeared along his lips as he thought that briefly.

"Kira-chan... she will continue to get worse. She is in and out of consciousness... because she is around negative energy. Last night was also negative energy which triggered her dream... but we can fix this if we work together."

Yaten's smile faded slightly as he turned to look towards Kira, his heart was aching at hearing that Kira was in and out of consciousness then. Being surrounded by negative energy - that argument in the hallway just added to the negative energy that fueled the nightmares Kira experienced. Yaten already felt guilty, felt at fault for everything. Now the weight of it was being dragged through the muck. And Kira was stuck. Stuck in the middle with no way out, being pulled further down into that negative energy.

"I'm here to help, Alita! I am 100% here for Kira, here to be her life preserver to do whatever is necessary to help pull her out from harms way. Whatever you need. I am here!" Said confidently!

"Hello everyone! Thank you for coming today! My name is Taiki Kou, and this is Seiya Kou, we are good friends of Kira's. We can see the crowd is getting anxious for Kira's return, she is having a bit of a break so we are stepping in to help cheer her back on!"

Their conversation was cut short then as Yaten heard his sibling Taiki take to the microphone and alerting the crowds out there. While watching his animated sibling speak, he could see that Taiki was holding his headset within their grasp. A silent smirk appeared along Yaten's lips then. Realizing at some point, he would have to retrieve his headset from Taiki. Along with a rip of sorts for leaving it behind.

"Unfortunately, our third bandmate, Yaten, is away today and will not be joining us ... but they are here in spirit. With that said, Seiya and I have a new song that we will sing together!"

Yaten was okay with that, the two of them singing. He just couldn't separate himself away from Kira. She needed him. Needed them, more than ever. "Alita? Please don't hate me. For I would love to sing to you with my siblings.... but... Kira needs me. And I need her."

It really dawned on Yaten then, when Alita said she had spoken to their siblings. Causing Yaten to stand there for a second or two in a long stare. "So they will sing." Lifting his emerald eyes up to meet with Alita's brown eyes, "And you will get to hear your dream... sing for you, Alita." Yaten's smirk turned into a gentle, genuine smile towards her.

Movement from the side caused Yaten to turn and see Liara make her presence known, Yaten's smile fading somewhat as his emerald eyes drifted over towards where Kira was standing at with the long stare.
"How long has she been like this for?"
"A few minutes..."
"Taiki-sama and Seiya-sama have proceeded with the plan to bring the phages out. Everyone needs to be ready to transform."
"Oh, I don't believe there will be any hesitation there, Alita." Yaten said in a matter of fact statement. He would change in an instant to protect the one he loves.
"Hey, Ali? You mentioned youmas come out with positive energy right? You love the Three Lights, so why don't you get a bit closer and enjoy yourself, after all, youโ€™ve never seen them sing in person so now may be the only chance... just be careful...I'll stay here with Yaten and Kira."

As if a light switch had been flickered to life, Alita became a beacon of brilliant positive light then.

"Are you...sure?"
"Very sure. I'm prepared. Now go! Before I change my mind!"
"Eeeeep! I get to see my crush singaaaahhhhh~!"

Watching the bundle of life, blossom into a joy filled moment running across the way, Yaten couldn't help but smile and know that Alita would finally get to experience her dream... Alita may not be up on stage as to where Taiki and Seiya were. Alita's voice and her talent were there to help sway to tide of evil away to help save the day for her friend, along with their aid.

User Image


"Are you ready?" Knowing that Liara would be in agreement and ready at a moments' notice. Yaten's Sailor Change Star was in hand, all they had to do was wait for the cue to begin.

~* I understand and I'm on alert. Oh and Seiya? If you need backup on the stage - I'm here if you need me. *~

Listening to Rei's voice in the idol's mind made Seiya smile to themselves. "Thanks, Rei. You'll be the first to know." Seiya answered back in thought.
As they headed back to the large group. Everyone was reunited again, even if some of them were a few meters away. There was a bit of chatter, and what seemed like the group catching up on the rest of the new information that came from Alita. It was time to get the show on the road, and prepare for the next youma attack.

It seemed the leader was now Taiki, who took it upon themselves to walk towards the stage, no doubt casting a glance to Seiya as if to say 'It's time'

"Hello everyone! Thank you for coming today! My name is Taiki Kou, and this is Seiya Kou, We are good friends of Kira's. We can see the crowd is getting anxious for Kira's return, she is having a bit of a break so we are stepping in to help cheer her back on!"

Seiya followed behind Taiki and gave a bow when their name was spoken, and gave a wave to the crowd. For the first time, Seiya felt nervous, not because of the crowd, or because they were about to sing... but the fact they all knew about the youma, and had to tread very carefully to make sure no one was hurt in the process.

"Unfortunately, our third bandmate, Yaten, is away today and will not be joining us ... but they are here in spirit. With that said, Seiya and I have a new song that we will sing together!"

While Taiki spoke again and confronted the crowd, telling them Yaten was not there, the crowds cheered then said "AWWWWHH"
It felt different, wrong even to be doing this, and even Yaten, who was in disguise most likely felt this too. They had always been together in events like this. Feeling like a limb was missing, Seiya tried not to let it bother them that Yaten was 'missing' but cast a glance to the last three lights member for a second, then back towards Taiki. Adjusting his headset and pressed the center star, which seemed to activate all the communication devices the Senshi had, pre-preparing for the attack.
It wasn't long until Alita had made her way to the front of the crowd, causing Seiya to make eye contact with her and flash a smile to acknowledge that she was seen. Although his gaze was welcoming, Seiya knew the real reason she was there and spoke into the headset after Taiki and began to pace alongside the stage.
"Music unites people together... therefore...we will sing for you!"
Seiya raised one hand upwards slightly, and clicked 'his' finger, almost mimicking a similar movement as if 'she' would as a Starlight.

User Image




The music began to start as soon as the idol clicked their finger. Where on earth did the music come from? The surround sound blanketed the audience, and first up was Seiya's voice that was heard.

User Image


"Amai koi no kaori matotte mo
Sono kokoro wa mitasarenai nokai? Oh you... oh youโ€ฆ"
( "Even if Iโ€™m wearing the sweet fragrance of love
Is there no way for me to satisfy your heart? Oh youโ€ฆ Oh youโ€ฆ" )

Seiya sang, pointing their index finger in Rei Hino's direction when the words 'Oh you' were spoken.


"Kimi no te ni sotto fureru dake de
Sono hoshi no hikari de wakarunda itโ€™s youโ€ฆ itโ€™s youโ€ฆ"

( "With just a gentle touch of your hand
I can tell by that starlight itโ€™s youโ€ฆ Itโ€™s youโ€ฆ" )


The only person who would know these lyrics is none other than Kira, hearing her sing this song last night was a negative experience, for everyone. The character tried to use her voice to make everything stop, and from that moment onwards she was encased in an illusion. If there was one thing the Three Lights were good at, it was remembering certain words, words that translated into lyrics they could sing.
This wasn't their usual song, no, it was one Kira had sung prior the night before at their house. Although they did not hear the whole version of it, they were good at spontaneously thinking up song lyrics and hoping that this illusion she was in could also be undone by their voices.
Star Healer was the only being who had seen Kira's notepad when she went to bring the Princess her belongings from her house.

User Image

Although Healer wasn't the type to 'snoop', her eyes would have rested along the lyrics of the song Kira had sung to them from the other side of the door. This could spark a memory, one that Yaten would be able to come up on stage and finish the sentences with the other two.

--

While the two had begun to sing, Haruka shifted her gaze from the two lights who took to the stage back to Michiru and spoke quietly, leaning in towards the teal-hair-colored woman. "I think it's wise to have some of us on stand-by..." she said, taking out her henshin wand. "It's better to be prepared now than when it happens." hinting it takes a while for the transforms to finish, Haruka didn't mind being the first person to take the lead and transform, she had seen her fair share of Three Lights performances anyway.
Scanning the area, she looked past Liara and knew around the corner was out of sight for anyone to see her. "Over there. Let's go, Michiru." Looking at Usagi for a moment before taking off in a swift run, it was also a lot easier for her to move freely not being in a kimono which restricted her movements.
Passing by Kira and Liara, the racer wasn't bothered if Liara or Kira had seen what was in her hand, they all knew what was coming. Leaning her back against the wall, luckily no one was around as she was at the backside of the stage, she held out her henshin wand and chanted.

User Image

"Uranus Crystal Power...Make Up!"


The Sailor Senshi kept out of the public view, stealthily making her way towards Kira's teacher being in her view of sight. Knowing that Hotaru would have the help of the other Senshi with Seto, Sailor Uranus knew that she had to help contain the other youma. She was ready to attack at any given moment.

Yaten traded a look with Liara, "Are you ready?" He knew that she was ready. Taking a step away from Liara he moved to where Kira was standing alone. Her eyes were dull like lifeless doll eyes. Giving Kira the appearance that the lights were on but no one was home. Kira was struggling with a battle from the inside. A battle, where she could see no real out. Negative energy was weighing her down. Energy that Yaten nor Star Healer could reach in and pull out naturally.

. . .something, positive would have to awaken her.

As Yaten moved to stand before Kira, the hem of the white hakama ruffled against the clean, crisp, cut grass beneath his traditional wooden, Geta sandals. Trails of his long silver-white hair fluttered behind him in a long veil settling against his back and shoulders. Reaching forwards once more to touch (if allowed) the side of Kira's face as he gazed upon his love. Taking a gentler approach as he addressed Kira tenderly. Hoping that not only his words reached her, but his simple actions did as well.

"Kira. . . I don't know if you can hear me. The real me. Know that I am here for you. I love you! I have not disbanded from the Three Lights. I am not leaving you. I will not abandon you, when you need me. I hope that my chi... my positive energy reaches you when I sing to you."

Taking a step closer, even though the negative energy surrounding Kira was pulsing in a fashion where a negative and positive energy force were not allowing either of them to connect. Yaten still pushed forwards towards her, hoping that the inviting, loving warmth radiating off him would be enough to transfer some good feeling vibes from what he did next. Gently cupping either side of Kira's face, the silver haired singer positioned himself to where he was mere inches away from her to plant a tender kiss upon Kira's lips. Hoping that she would remember at least this contact if not at this very moment... she would remember later. Holding onto that gentle kiss with Kira for as long as he thought was the right amount of love and support, he reluctantly withdrew from the kiss to take a step back. All he could see was the reflection of his image within Kira's dulled, lifeless teal eyes staring back at him.

"Kira... please... remember us." As he gazed back at her, Yaten reached his right hand upwards along his kimono robes. Slipping his hand in between the robes and withdrew the yellow rose that Alita had given him earlier. Holding up that rose before him towards Kira, "This rose... represents our love and our love will conquer all. Our love is a powerful force that can overcome any obstacle as we support one another, love one another." Reaching forwards, Yaten took the stem of the yellow rose and gently tucked the yellow rose in between Kira's long spiraling hair and her ear. Allowing his fingertips to linger idly beside the yellow rose for a moment as he traded his gaze from the rose and back at Kira. Hoping that she heard him. Hoping that she believed in what he said to her then.

As Yaten continued to take a few steps away from Kira, he could hear in the background what all was being said along the loud speakers to the crowd. The sadness of the crowd hearing that he was not going to be there. But be there in spirit. He could feel the draw of music, pulling at his internal heart strings. Along with the sensation of someone familiar calling towards him, even though no voice was made out loud. It was a calling that only the three of them had. A calling, where none of them had to say a word. Seeing at that moment, that Seiya had cast a glance in his general direction. His cue to join them and sing together once more was there, welcoming him with arms wide open.

"Music unites people together...therefore...we will sing for you!"

With the time it took Yaten to depart away from Kira and Liara, was the amount of time when Seiya addressed their audience. The camouflaged Yaten Kou made his way through the crowd, blending in among the sea of people dressed for the occasion. Managing to slip through unnoticed by the crowd that had gathered up at the front. Maneuvering to the back of the stage. At the foot of the steps, Yaten momentarily slipped freely out of his Geta sandals and into his stage shoes. Where he then ascended the steps leading up onto the stage with no interference from security stopping his progress. At that moment, he walked up behind Taiki, snatching up his microphone from his bandmates grasp as if he was a magician. Reaching up to place the microphone securely in place. It was apparent to some of the people in the crowd that the new person showing up didn't exactly look like one of the Three Lights.

Watching the crowd waiting in anticipation, Yaten Kou waited for the cue of the singing to commence. Walking to a position along the backside of where Seiya and Taiki stood, the swirling of his hakama settled along the stage. Standing still like a statue in the background. Yaten stood with his head bowed; with his long hair covering his features, he waited for what felt like a long amount of time. That is until the sound of Seiya snapping their fingers and the music came to life instantaneously!

"Amai koi no kaori matotte mo
Sono kokoro wa mitasarenai nokai? Oh you... oh youโ€ฆ"


( "Even if Iโ€™m wearing the sweet fragrance of love
Is there no way for me to satisfy your heart? Oh youโ€ฆ Oh youโ€ฆ" )

Seiya sang, pointing their index finger in Rei Hino's direction when the words 'Oh you' were spoken.



"Kimi no te ni sotto fureru dake de
Sono hoshi no hikari de wakarunda itโ€™s youโ€ฆ itโ€™s youโ€ฆ"


( "With just a gentle touch of your hand
I can tell by that starlight itโ€™s youโ€ฆ Itโ€™s youโ€ฆ" )



Waiting his turn, listening to the tune of the song as it was sung out by both Seiya and Taiki, he knew then it was his turn to belt out his lines. In between his bandmates verses and the beams of lights shining along the stage, Yaten had already reached up with both hands loosening the tie(s) that held his kimono robes and hakama together.

It was time... time to shine. Tapping the side of his starlight headset/microphone to be turned on, his voice could be heard singing to the crowd as he stepped forwards out into the light.

"Hatรฉ shinai sora wo koe deaeta
Furueta kimi no hฤto wa hanasanai"

( "We fatefully met across an endless galaxy

As he began to sing, Yaten slipped free by turning around in a spin, moving in a circular motion as the ceremonial kimono and hakama began to disintegrate into thin air. The whole ceremonial kimono and hakama appeared to disappear like magic leaving nothing but sparkling dust shimmering in wake. Stepping out from the shimmering display of sparkling dust out into the light of the audience, wearing his signature suited attire for all to see. The long hair that had once been held up fell with grace in its natural hair style form. This action of trans-forming from traditional attire to his stage suit seemed to cause a gasping-shock to screaming reaction from the fans in along the crowd as Yaten Kou joined his bandmates in song on stage. His emerald eyes lit up full of life and light as he directed his line of sight towards Kira who stood further away from the crowd. Hoping his part of the song would reach Kira's ears and that the song would warm her heart.

"Are you ready?"


Liara traded a glance towards Yaten and grinned, giving a nod. "Sure am. Go." She whispered placing a hand on Yaten's shoulder momentarily as she watched him move towards Kira.
Kira's eyes were lifeless at this point, her mind was active. Thoughts were cycling through her mind over and over, twisting everything around that everyone was saying to her, she became stuck in a trance-like state, shocked that her friends and someone she loves would say such things.

Quote:
"Kira. . . I don't know if you can hear me. The real me. Know that I am here for you. I love you! I have not disbanded from the Three Lights. I am not leaving you. I will not abandon you, when you need me. I hope that my chi... my positive energy reaches you when I sing to you."


Yaten came within her bubble now, closing in, their hands reached up to either side of her cheeks, inching themselves towards her, and placed a tender kiss on her lips. Kira blinked once, she was really trying to fight her way back to reality. Kira heard Yaten's words, she was able to hear them, and the words were not being changed or altered in her mind. "Yaten...?" She managed to think to herself. Kira was able to feel something press against her lips. She wanted to get their attention, but during the kiss, she was unable to move to do anything in return. Slowly, the idol pulled back, even they could see Kira's struggle, and she still had not regained consciousness just yet. Time was running out, and the options around them were very limited.

Quote:
"Kira... please... remember us."


"Us?" She thought to herself. It was as if Kira had her eyes shut, but she had them open. Thinking about 'us' she was brought back to the time of the concert. That excitement of entering the grounds, being a 'normal' human being. Upon entering the concert, she showed the security guard her ticket and was escorted a different way to the arena, a secret entrance which was the VIP area. "Why? Why am I remembering this?" She thought to herself. In her mind, she was able to look at her hands, they were blurry and distorted but Kira felt like she was playing a walkthrough game of her life, her body in the real world was stiff but in this dream, this vision she was able to move around. Everything faded to black, then went to a 'cutscene' as she was now standing in the crowd. "What the? How did---" Everything around her was fast-paced, much like how Setsuna had seen Alita and the people around her. For Kira, The Three Lights were the only ones who she was able to see clearly. Trying to take a step forward, her body was not able to move just yet. Wanting to yell out to them, they were so close to her on the stage yet still out of reach. Everything again faded to black. "NO! Wait!" The archer cried out before the last scene entered her mind.

Kira once again was able to feel something slide past her ear, something that rested along the top part of where her ear started.

Quote:
"This rose... represents our love and our love will conquer all. Our love is a powerful force that can overcome any obstacle as we support one another, love one another."


Yaten's voice echoed as the darkness around her faded to the last scene. It was when Kira had passed out, and Star Healer was holding onto her, sobbing. Kira was standing there as if she was watching a movie, or being a projection, a figment of her imagination, however, this was real and did happen.

Quote:
"... W-why... why did you run? We wanted you to find a place to hide and be safe. I thought we were clear ..."

Perhaps Kira's original intention of leaving to find safety was on her mind before Luna awakened her inner senshi in a manner of speaking. Gently hugging Kira closely as she continued to speak in soft tones, "Kira... promise me... please promise me that you won't go chasing anymore fallen yellow roses in the line of danger. The roses can be replaced.....you cannot. You are one of a kind unique in nature, you cannot be replaced. I wouldn't.. I couldn't.. handle it if something more drastic happened to you... I ..." Guiding her face through the curtain of silky hair resting along Kira's face to where their lips once more connected. Kissing Kira's lips delicately, in a loving manner.


Meanwhile, Liara was watching Yaten hold either side of Kira's cheeks while gazing into her cold teal eyes, trying to get some sort of reaction out of her. "Yaten... we... have to break the youmas illusion." Commenting to the idol that Kira wasn't going to do anything anytime soon, Liara shifted her gaze toward Taiki and Seiya.

Quote:
"Music unites people together...therefore...we will sing for you!"


Liara could see Yaten was now distracted by the leader's voice, and pulled away from Kira. Perhaps Alita's convincing had Yaten rethink? Yaten moments before told Liara that they weren't going to part from Kira - but maybe just this once, Yaten knew they had unfinished business with the youma, and would do anything in their power to set Kira free.

Kira was watching from the outside looking in, to see a distressed Starlight. "What the heck... I'm back here? Why am I seeing this? Is this...how it happened?" Kira wondered. No one else could see Kira, but she was just watching a movie about the events that happened when she passed out. The Sailor Senshi all ran to her aid, a few stood nearby to guard the group healing Kira. Taking a few steps forward, Kira saw herself and the state she was in.
Seeing this for the first time, it hurt Kira, so much she placed her hand where the wound had been. "This happened... all because I tried to save something. But if I didn't save the rose... then things would have ended up differently." Kira was able to bring her hands in front of her in her projection and look at them, noticing there was a blue aura that emitted from them, and it directed forward, towards the large group of friends she had made.

Quote:
"I'm not leaving Kira alone and unprotected. I will protect Kira with my life to make sure she gets to safety."


User Image

Kira had seen the yellow rose that rested on her sleeping body, but Kira felt something rest on her ear, causing her to reach up to lightly brush her hand overtop of the rose, realizing that she had another one on her, like a second chance. Something inside Kira's mind had snapped, The archer realized this was her subconscious as she thought "Yaten... the youma was the cause of all this, not the rose!"

Quote:
"Hatรฉ shinai sora wo koe deaeta
Furueta kimi no hฤto wa hanasanai"

( "We fatefully met across an endless galaxy
Iโ€™ll never let go of your trembling heart" )


As soon as Kira blinked, her projection vision pulled her back to reality as she heard Yaten's voice singing, the voice almost felt like some sort of awakening method. A gasp came to Kira's lips causing Liara to look from the Three Lights back towards Kira, seeing the archer just stand there in shock, Kira looked like she had seen a ghost, but there was finally life in her eyes.

Quote:


"Koikogarezu ni kono ai ni
Oborenayo, oborenayo"


( "Longing so deeply for this love
Donโ€™t drown in it, donโ€™t drown" )


"Doko ni itatte kono uta de
Furimukaseru, furimukaseru"


( "No matter where Iโ€™m singing from, this song will
Make you turn your head, make you turn your head" )


"Boku o mitsumena
Koe o agena
Sono kuchibiru wa boku ga ubau no sa"


( "Donโ€™t look at me like that
Donโ€™t raise your voice
Iโ€™ll snatch those lips away" )


"Boku o mitsumena
Koe o agena
Kimi no subete wa boku ga ubau no sa"


( "Donโ€™t look at me like that
Donโ€™t raise your voice
Iโ€™ll snatch away your everything" )


Alita held out her hands towards the front as any fan would to try and get a high-five or another acknowledgment from the Three Lights. Alita was really enjoying herself.
Liara smiled as she could see the life return into Kira's eyes as she was watching the archer. "Welcome back."
Breaking her gaze from the emerald green eyes from the distance, she managed to break away and look towards Liara, trying to speak words but only managed to say Liara's name. "Liara...I--" Looking back at her hands, the archer was able to physically see the blue aura that drew itself off Kira's body and towards her teacher, then resumed her gaze at Yaten.
"You've been living under the youmas attack... do you remember at which point you felt something was wrong?" Liara asked, trying to get the archer to say more than just her name as the archer looked back at Yaten, the two seemed to have made eye contact again. "No... not really." Kira answered, still watching Yaten. "But... this song..." she mumbled, making Liara overhear the mumble.

User Image

Listening to the lyrics, Kira narrowed her eyes and thought to herself. "Why?... why are you singing this song? How...?"
"Is something wrong...?" Liara asked, not understanding what Kira seemed unhappy about then. "Why don't you get closer? Alita is up there in the front."
The mention of Alita's name was as if she heard which caused her to look over at Kira and Liara and wave, then gesture to Kira to come over to her, but no luck, Kira didn't move.
Kira shook her head. "No, it's... it's not that I..." pausing, the archer was about to tell Liara about the song, but knew that might cause her to ask questions, but instead answered her in a completely different way. "I can see here just fine, besides... I think the Three Lights and I have seen enough of each other."

Unsure what Kira meant by that, Liara shrugged and answered. "Hm...Suit yourself." It was a very Kira-like answer when she was bothered by something, her answer was enough for Liara to know the archer was back to her usual self.
"How were they able to memorize this song so well? After hearing it once? Were they really listening to me last night?" Kira thought to herself, struggling to understand how they were able to get the song word-for-word.

Quote:

"Sono kokoro ga yami ni nomarete mo
Donna toki mo boku ga mamoru kara oh youโ€ฆ oh youโ€ฆ"
( "Even if your heart is swallowed up by darkness
Iโ€™ll protect you no matter what oh youโ€ฆ oh youโ€ฆ" )


"Itsumo ore wa pลkฤ feisu sa
Kimi dake ni sugao misetainda only youโ€ฆ only youโ€ฆ"

( "I always wear a poker face
Youโ€™re the only one that I want to show my true face to only youโ€ฆ only youโ€ฆ" )


"Tomedo naku furu hoshi no pawฤ de
Hikari no michi tadotte mitsukeruyo"

( "With the power of the endlessly falling stars
I will be able to find the path of light" )


The crowd seemed to be enjoying the song, so much that Kira, along with the other Sailor Senshi was able to see the visible energy coming off each human being, and the energy was entering into the bodies of Seto and Kira's archery teacher. The aura grew thicker and thicker as the song went on, it was just as Alita predicted. Alita swirled to look at Liara, giving her a concerned look then back towards the Three Lights. She knew she would be protected if anything were to happen there and then, and it was just as well she was in the front row.

Quote:


"Kibล no hikari ga kieta tte
Boku ga terasu, boku ga terasu
Shisen no saki ni itsudatte
Bokura ga iru, bokura ga iru"



( "Even if the light of hope is disappearing,
Iโ€™ll illuminate it, Iโ€™ll illuminate it
At the edge of your line of sight,
There we are, there we are" )


"Boku o mitsumena
Koe o agena
Sono kuchibiru wa boku ga ubau no sa
Boku o mitsumena
Koe o agena
Kimi no subete wa boku ga ubau no sa"


( "Longing so deeply for this love
Donโ€™t drown in it, donโ€™t drown
No matter where Iโ€™m singing from, this song will
Make you turn your head, make you turn your head" )

"Ahhh iya iya
Ahhh iya iya

Ahhh iya iya
Ahhh iya iya

Ahhhh, Ahhhhhโ€ฆ
Ahhhh, Ahhhhhโ€ฆ"


"Liara?" Kira questioned, still staring at Yaten. "...They never disbanded, right?"
The red-haired had absolutely no idea where this came from, or how Kira had thought such a thing would happen. "What do you mean?"
"It's nothing, forget I said anything."
Just by looking at the archer, she could tell Kira seemed distracted, and something may have happened during her attack, Liara smiled a little bit and reassured Kira. "No. But If you are comparing...their bond is stronger than mine and my sisters, if that's what you're worried about."
Kira looked down, she hadn't thought about Addison in a long time, and it was like ripping a bandage off an old wound. "Back then...I was... in a really bad place."
At this point, Liara wasn't sure now what Kira was referencing, was it the cause of the Three Lights disbanding or was it because she was the cause of Liara's sisters? Kira was scared that history would repeat itself and wanted to make sure Princess Kakyuu still had her three Starlights around her and would be there to protect her. "Whatever that was, I can't let that happen to them."

Quote:
"Koikogarezu ni kono ai ni

"Ahhh iya iya
Ahhh iya iya

Ahhh iya iya
Ahhh iya iya"


The air around them became unsettling and as the song ended, Alita was the first to react and turn to face Liara with worry as she stood there by herself. The crowd's gasps were heard then the screams commenced. The youma from the teacher nearby took first, and her body began to morph into a phage.
It was exactly as Alita predicted.

User Image

Everyone from the stage area below began to move with haste, and the fight-or-flight mode kicked in. The sirens from the loudspeakers began to be let off as the automatic emergency voiceover was heard. Everyone but Alita ran, making her stick out a little bit, and hesitant to leave.

"Alita! Run!" Taiki yelled over their microphone to try and get her attention.

"PLEASE EVACUATE THE AREA IMMEDIATELY - THIS IS NOT A DRILL - PLEASE EVACUATE THE AREA IMMEDIATELY."

Without any hesitation from Taiki, they held up their Star Change once their leader did which was almost immediately, and chanted alongside them while still on stage. Meanwhile, Alita got a front row seat to watch all three transform.

Liara turned to Kira and spoke loudly over the voice as she forced Kira's hand and placed something inside it. "Kira! Listen to me - take my car, it's out at the front of the car park, take Alita and get out of here!" she said with urgency in her voice.
"What about you?!" Kira shouted back over the screams and microphone that boomed over the area around them. "I have a duty here... to help the Sailor Senshi. Kira just go! I'll see you both soon, I promise!" Liara shouted back, placing both her hands on Kira's shoulders and forcefully turning her to face in the direction of where Alita was. Nudging hard, Liara pushed Kira forward. The archer hesitated at first as she watched the Three Lights transform before her eyes, she had absolutely no clue what was happening now that she was fully conscious with no youma or negative energy to manipulate her. "Oh no..." she mumbled as she spotted some camera crew still hanging around, it was too late to stop the Three Lights, their transformations were live on television, and all social media.

Pushing against the crowd, Kira was able to reach Alita and take her hand, pulling her in close. "We have to get out of here!"
Even though Alita couldn't speak loudly, Alita pointed to the Starlights who now were coming out of their transformation. "But--" She tried to squeak out but was cut off by Kira, it wasn't until then Alita noticed the yellow rose that rested neatly on top of Kira's ear, threaded through her hair.

User Image

"It's too late! We have to go!"
Pulling her, Alita nodded and was then pulled by the hand of Kira to race out of the venue. Neither of them stayed around to finish watching everyone come out of their transformations, and by the time the Starlights had finished, Alita and Kira were long gone out of their sight.

Passing by strangers, trying to weave in and out as swiftly as they could, Kira pulled Alita down a small alleyway, a shortcut, and continued to run. There were fewer people, which was good - however, Kira had passed by someone who she managed to bump into, causing Kira to have a magical reaction to said person and the symbol on her forehead flickered for a few seconds, projecting an image to the young lady.

"๐’ฎ๐’ถ๐’พ๐“๐‘œ๐“‡ . . . . . . . . . . ๐’ซ๐“‡๐‘œ๐“‰๐‘’๐’ธ๐“‰ . . . . . . . . . . . . ๐’ซ๐“๐‘’๐’ถ๐“ˆ๐‘’ . . ."

It would have been hard to make out the rest of the words the woman said, everything was distorted and this was due to the lack of Kira's controlled power.

"AH!---S-Sorry! --Sorry!" Kira quickly let out as she tugged at Alita to catch up, completely unaware of the vision she had projected to the person she had bumped into.
Alita was looking ahead, but as they passed by this young female, Alita had to take a glance back at the girl to see who Kira had shouldered into. Her hazel eyes caught a quick glance at the woman as she stood out from the rest of the crowd. There wasn't any time to stop, just a rush of people behind them trying to get out as fast as they were.

User Image

The two brunettes held onto each other closely so they wouldn't be separated by the panicking swarm of people and raced out together towards Liara's red sports car. It wasn't until then Kira noticed the two other familiar cars alongside Liara's. "These are... Seiya and Taiki's?! Where is Yatens??" she quickly thought to herself, remembering them from earlier.

There wasn't much time for her to think about it, but instead unlocked the car door and sat down on the driver's side. Alita opened the passenger side door and stopped before sitting down, as she seemed to notice something in the distance before she got inside and closed the door.
Kira leaned back into her seat with a sigh of relief from the mad dash to the car - they were safe from the crowd. "HOLY SHI------ oh my god... That was just crazy! Everything happened so fast I didn't know what to feel!" Kira sighed with relief, catching her breath. "I...I can't believe what just happened! You saw the Three Lights publicly transformed too, right?! The media caught EVERYTHING!"

User Image


The archer looked at what she was wearing while she had spoken that sentence and knew that the archery robes she wore would get in the way if she needed to do another chase scene. Knowing she had casual clothes underneath them, the archer took her henshin wand from her pocket placing the object in the cupholder beside her. Kira untied the bow that held everything together on her robes and with one swift movement pulled off the attire, and tossed it in the back seat behind her.
"At least the media won't be focused on you anymore." Alita tried to smile, giving some positive light on the whole thing.
"Mm that's true... even so... they won't be able to recover from that exposure. Anyways, we have to get out of here, as far away from them-- the youmas, we'll go for a road trip, listen to some music, and forget about everything!"
Turning to Alita, Kira forcefully put on a believable smile and spoke again. "It'll be okay! You ready to go?" While waiting for a reaction or an answer, Kira raised both her arms towards her hair and untied it from the ponytail, letting her long wavy hair drop-down, then used her fingertips to fluff up the hair. The archer got rid of all evidence she had been at her archery tournament and now looked like a casual human being.
User Image

Alita looked unhappy with this situation they had gotten into but had to accept this was what Kira wanted to do, and the best plan that they had at such short notice as she gave Kira a small nod. The silent brunette looked distracted in her own thoughts as she seemed to ignore Kira for the time being.

Hearing the familiar voice caught Seiya's attention almost instantly. The idol wanted to hug Yaten but knew that sort of affection on stage might make Yaten feel uncomfortable. Pacing back, Seiya placed a hand on their shoulder instead and flashed a smile, then turned to the crowd.
It was another moment together Seiya enjoyed, one where they weren't biting each other's heads off. In the crowd, the idol had noticed the aura from the audience and took note that whatever it was they were doing, it was working.

Seiya's sapphire blue eyes throughout the song kept an eye on certain people, even though the idol wasn't singing for the crowd, but to bring out the youma instead.
After they hit their last note, Seiya could already see the change in the woman who had inherited the youma's dark crystal's demise.
Taking note of Alita who was within an arm's reach, she was at least safe within their space if anything were to happen. Witnessing Alita reach out, Seiya smiled and leaned down to brush their hand against hers. Feeling like it was the right thing to do, to have all three sing together might be the last time they do this, for Alita, Seiya wanted to make this worth remembering even though the radiating energy she had beamed off her, it was worth every second.
The song ended, and sure enough, Alita's app was correct.

"Alita! Run!"

"s**t... " Realizing there was no time to hide, go anywhere, they had to just transform in front of all these people. Right now, Seiya didn't care. Protecting the people they loved mattered most, even if it meant sacrificing their identities to the world. The leader gasped at the youma transforming. Phages were ugly things, that never changed or surprised the idol. It was more the fact they all needed to transform together as soon as possible. Holding up their Star Change, each of the three chanted together simultaneously.

"Fighter Star Power..."
"Maker Star Power...."
...
"MAKE UP!"

The Star Change glowed brightly, and once again the three of them began to transform, in front of the crowd, in front of the media. Everyone.
Seiya---Star Fighter knew this would likely change a lot of things for a lot of people, and they would all need to lay low for a while until the news blew over. They could state it was an illusion, special effects, or another performance but they would need to be very convincing since both youmas would also be in the media.
Coming out of the transformation, Star Fighter had expected this would happen and saw the crowds of people run. Next, her gaze shifted lower to the front of the stage but did not see Alita anywhere. "They must have taken cover... I hope." She said, talking to Star Maker and Star Healer.

Before Michiru had spoken with Seto about how everything was going she had listened to Alita explaining her phone app to the others so that it could track the youma's. She gasped when she revealed who the two current youma/phages were. 'I need to inform Hotaru right away about her fiance so she will be ready.' Michiru thought to herself.
User Image

Michiru didn't say anything to Seto about the situation she thought it would be better to hear it from Hotaru while she spoke with him.

Hotaru, Chibiusa, and Seto had just gotten back while Alita had explained her phone app to the other Senshi. Once Chibiusa, Hotaru, and Seto got into the back and started sharing their mini doughnuts Michiru had been speaking briefly with Seto. Just shortly after they finished their conversation Hotaru's communicator made a chime sound, and it was alerting her she had a text message on her phone from one of the girls. As she read the message she held her breath before looking up at Michiru before looking down at her phone and quickly typed a message.

While Hotaru was typing messages on her phone to Michiru, Seto felt a headache coming on and it was starting to make him feel a little dizzy and the pain from his right shoulder was starting to come back slightly but not intense. He touched Hotaru's right shoulder. "Hey, I'm going to go get another drink really quick and I will be right back." He told her while she was answering a message from one of the girls. "I will be back in a few minutes." He told the others that were in the area before the Three Lights started singing. He left and went towards the vendors but didn't make it that far before the Three Lights started singing and his headache started to get worse, and he was feeling dizzier. He moved off the path to a grassy area within the shrine and sat down on the grass for a few minutes.

Hotaru didn't have a chance to tell him what was going to happen before he announced he was going to get something else to drink and would be back in a few minutes. Hotaru went to take a step after him. "Seto!" She called to him but he didn't hear her.

Michiru saw she was going to try to go after him but stopped her by taking her arm gently. "There isn't time." She told Hotaru.

Hotaru sighed, looked back at Michiru, and nodded. "Ok let's go after Haruka-papa." She replied.

Michiru went in the direction Haruka took with Hotaru following her while the Three Lights sang.

Hotaru followed Michiru and put her two Konpeito boxes in her messenger bag as she followed and once they were in a secluded place they started to transform.

Michiru tucked her Aqua Mirror into her bag.

Hotaru held up her hand and her purple heart crystal appeared in her hand. "Saturn Crystal Power, Make Up!"

Michiru held up her hand and her aqua heart crystal appeared in her hand. "Neptune Crystal Power, Make Up!"

User Image


Once Saturn and Neptune transformed, they both joined Sailor Uranus to regroup.

Once the Three Lights finished their song. Screams could be heard as Kira's archery teacher transformed into a phage.

The pain in Seto's right shoulder started to get more intense as the Three Lights finished their song. He could feel something trying to take over him. 'What's happening?' He said to himself as he tried to fight whatever it was that was trying to take control over him. He was only able to do so for a very short while before the phage took over him and transformed him into a terrifying whitish blue anthro draconic phage with large dragon wings that resembled his Blue Eyes White Dragon.
User Image

"Sailor Dragon!" He says, as he opens his claws and cards that resemble Duel Monster cards appeared in them. He threw his arm towards a fence, and the cards cut through it like butter.

After he transformed into a phage and hit the fence people started to scream and run.

Sailor Dragon roared and opened his wings and he started glowing in blue and he raised his clawed hands towards the sky and a beam of blue electrical energy shot out from his hands towards the sky. Within moments dark clouds started to appear over the entire shrine and lightning started cracking through the sky and hit electrical objects and nearby technology.

Saturn noted the 2nd group of screams that came from the same direction that Seto had gone in. "It sounds like Seto has transformed as well." She told the other senshi once the others had joined up with them. "We should split up and each group can weaken one of the phage before we get Sailor Moon to reverse their transformation." Saturn suggested as she gripped her Silence Glaive tightly. She could only imagine the form that it transformed him into, but she had a feeling it would be something relating to a dragon. She heard a deafening roar and her feeling had been confirmed. She looked up at the gathered storm clouds. "This looks like it could be bad guys we are going to have to be careful with all this lightning." She told the other senshi.

"Kira! Listen to me - take my car, it's out at the front of the car park, take Alita and get out of here!" she said with urgency in her voice.
"What about you?!" Kira shouted back over the screams and microphone that boomed over the area around them. "I have a duty here... to help the Sailor Senshi. Kira just go! I'll see you both soon, I promise!" Liara shouted back, placing both her hands on Kira's shoulders and forcefully turning her to face in the direction of where Alita was. Nudging hard, Liara pushed Kira forward.


Watching Kira go towards Alita for a few seconds longer, her gaze shifted to the singing Three Lights, giving them a knowing stare before she took out her Star Change again and took off around the corner. Liara knew the archery grounds like the back of her hand and walked into the locker room where no one was.
Inhaling, Liara was about to brace herself for another battle ahead.
Chanting her magical words which made her transform.

"Catcher Star Power..."


User Image

"...MAKE UP!"


User Image

Swiftly exiting the locker room, the Starlight readied herself and jumped into mid-air. One of Star Catcher's abilities is gliding in mid-air, like the other Starlights. She was able to jump extreme heights and land exactly where she needed to be.
Casting a glance over towards where Alita was moments ago, she caught sight of both Alita and Kira running fast towards the exit where she had told them to go, which was towards her car. Something else had caught the Starlight's attention, the other Sailor Senshi appeared on the scene which made her listen in to the group below before having the need to jump down.

All this chatter between the Outers and Inners was quite comical, Seiya eating Usagi's share of the donuts had made the girl quite hangry, however, she was able to snag a few from the girls.
Taiki had come up and shown Setsuna, Michiru, Haruka, Ami, Rei, Makoto, Minako, Usagi, Mamoru, Luna, and Artemis the app that Alita had made. Telling them the details she had gone into, even though Rei already knew what Alita had told Seiya and Taiki about the app, Rei always seemed to be one step ahead and most likely already had a plan B or even C up her sleeve. Usagi was impressed, and much like Yaten, got the same idea and discretely played match maker, literally.

User Image

Even though Kira's efforts had stopped halfway through her competing, Kira was still currently under the youma's attack and knew deep down whatever she did now didn't count. Even her archery teacher had noticed pretty fast that Kira was not at her best. Usagi watched how both Taiki and Seiya swiftly moved towards the stage after the last thing told said to the group was the youma is the teacher, and Seto, Hotaru's fiancรฉ.
Usagi watched the teacher try to interact with Kira, stopping what she was doing as the teacher had also tried to distract the crowd and perform herself but noticed a strange feeling. When this strange feeling happened, it caused Kira to see someone in the crowd making the archery teacher follow her with her eyes, watching Kira basically launch herself towards another member in the guest crowd within the space of the gated area.

User Image

At this point, the crowd was getting anxious Kira had fled the stage, and now began to chant her name. Saved by two of the Lights, they entered the stage and tried to calm down the anxious crowd themselves.
"Ah! Kira-chan!" Usagi said, taking a step forward but was held back by Makoto. "Let her be, Usagi. I know you want to help, but I think the only person who can is there with her now."
While Makoto was confiding in Usagi, giving her a pep-talk of her own, Minako just stared at Yaten talking to Kira. She had her own thoughts going on in her mind about the idol, it wasn't until she watched Alita approach, and give Kira an embrace as two close friends would.

User Image

"...That girl..." Thought to herself as her eyes were glued to the two of them. Minako watched how they interacted with each other, the longer she stared, she got this strange feeling, one she couldn't exactly put into words yet.

Quote:
"Hello everyone! Thank you for coming today! My name is Taiki Kou, and this is Seiya Kou, We are good friends of Kira's. We can see the crowd is getting anxious for Kira's return, she is having a bit of a break so we are stepping in to help cheer her back on! Unfortunately, our third bandmate, Yaten, is away today and will not be joining us ... but they are here in spirit. With that said, Seiya and I have a new song that we will sing together!"


"AWWWWWWWWWW" the crowd said simontaniously. Usagi gasped at hearing Taiki's voice and went to grab onto Makoto and Minako's hands. "Let's go! They're going to sing!"
A smile appeared on Makoto's visage, while Minako looked back at Yaten again before being pulled by Usagi, who also got Ami and Rei's attention too. "Rei-chan! Ami-chan! Come on! Lets GO! We have to do our bit and bring out the youma by enjoying this moment!" Knowing that this would bring out the youma, Usagi wanted to help but also she was happy that she had an excuse, one that Luna couldn't get mad at her about!

Quote:
"Music unites people together...therefore...we will sing for you!"


The girls rushed to the front of the crowd and began to cheer and scream, being giddy at the idols, even though they saw them basically daily, there was just something about them and how they presented themselves on stage, stardom. It wasn't long until Usagi had noticed Alita making her way to the crowd. "Alita-chan!" she called out to her. Usagi wasn't able to speak to her before, but now only briefly. The silent brunette made her way to the front of the stage and already was hit by the fame of the two on stage, hearing Usagi call out to her made her wonder who that was, and then saw the blonde wave her arms around to get her attention.
Both parties moved closer to each other until they were standing side by side. "Alita-chan I have to say your app is incredible! That must have taken you ages to make! So the youmas will really appear?! Amazing!"
Listening to Usagi's awe, Alita couldn't help but feel sad for the reason why she made it and masked it very well, to them, all they saw was her happy expression and a grin, having a tiny blush as she nodded given such a compliment.

User Image

"Alita-chan, you, Ami-chan, and Taiki-san could share your ideas together! You three are so smart! Kyaaa~" Giggling to herself, Usagi was thinking of the possible romance pairing, usually Minako would chime in but she was now within close range of Alita which made her stare at her more.

User Image

Alita looked a bit confused as to what Usagi was giggling about and had Makoto step in.
"Please ignore her, she has a mind of her own! Usagi! Shush! You'll scare her away!" She gritted her teeth and tried to smile while also trying to look annoyed, but also trying to smile some more! This comment had already made Alita a bit flushed with red on her cheeks.

As the song began to start, the two of them sang on stage, and then a figure got on stage to join them. It wasn't long until the figure had let their magical powers disintegrate the hakama they wore, you could see the visible sparkles that floated in the air and now remaining was the trademark suit they wore to match the other two Three Lights. Perhaps Yaten had planned this all along? Yaten was a little bit of a drama queen in some ways, or rather maybe thats how Taiki perceived their oldest sibling. Taiki felt something being snatched out of their hand, causing them to turn to look at Yaten. A faint smile appeared, but sadly they still weren't able to talk to them about the events that happened between them. Of course, Taiki felt bad, none of them liked what happened, and Taiki would take it all back if they could.

"THEY'RE SO COOL~!!" Makoto yelled after Usagi. The whole area around them were of fans who just screamed out their names.

Alita's eyes sparkled and she leaned in to touch the hand of Seiya who smiled at her as they sang the chorus of the song together.

Minako reverted back to her old self and matched Usagi and Makoto's energy. It was at this point the crowd's positive energy lifted and it began to be absorbed into both the vessels. Usagi, Makoto, and Minako began to look around and noticed the crowd started to become slightly incoherent of the two youmas. Luna went into the crowd, knowing that they wouldn't really notice a black cat weaving around the hazy stream of people.

User Image

"Usagi! Everyone! The Youma's are close to transforming! We have to go!"
Usagi frowned and looked back at Alita who seemed to have a ball full of energy unlike the rest of the crowd, she wasn't affected for whatever reason and was recording the Three Lights on her phone.

User Image

This moment to her seemed important, and Usagi didn't want to take that away from her.
"Y-Yeah... I guess." Usagi looked at Seiya and tried to sign language "We're going to go, please don't stop, we will be back!" she mouthed, pointing to her chest and indicated they were going to transform.
Usagi looked at Alita before departing, Alita was very much focused on the three on the stage to notice Usagi and the group departing. Maybe something should have been said to Alita, but now Usagi had trusted the Starlights to watch over her during this time while everyone was still distracted.

Making their way around the other side of the back passage to the stage, hoping no one else would see them. Usagi traded a look between the girls and nodded.

During this time, Chibi-Usa was with Michiru and Hotaru.
Quote:
"Seto!"

Quote:
"There isn't time."

Quote:
"Ok let's go after Haruka-papa."

Worried, Chibi-Usa gazed at her friend, knowing how worried she must be feeling. "Hotaru-chan..." she thought to herself. Observing her typing away on her phone to Michiru. Haruka had excused herself, and so did Seto, letting them know he wasn't feeling well caused Hotaru to be on her phone the majority of the time while Taiki and a few others had been explaining the situation. All three of them ran to the back of the stage where they had seen Sailor Uranus standing guard, watching. Michiru, Setsuna, Hotaru, and Chibi-Usa all chanted and began to also transform.
"Saturn Crystal Power, Make Up!"
"Neptune Crystal Power, Make Up!"

"Pink Moon Crystal Power, Make Up!"

User Image

Chibi Moon ended and posed, immediately rushing out towards the front of the stage where she had seen Sailor Moon, Sailor Venus, Sailor Jupiter, Sailor Mercury, and Sailor Mars. Looking back, she had seen the Starlights on the stage, then the youmas.

User Image

"Huh?! That's Seto?!" she exclaimed, shrieking in utter horror of 'Sailor Dragon'. This must have been tough for Sailor Saturn to witness. Turning to Sailor Saturn, Chibi Moon wanted to reassure her. "Don't worry, we will get him back to normal in no time!"



As the song had come to an end, the girls finally came out of their transformations and posed only to see and hear the crowd's reactions to the two youmas that had transformed. It was only natural for Sailor Moon to bolt back out to where they were just before and notice Alita was gone already. "Alita-chan!?"

"They must have taken cover... I hope."

Star Fighter had just finished talking to the two Starlights.

"Alita-chan?!... Kira-chan?!" Eternal Sailor Moon called out. Her gaze scanned the area around them but all they saw were civilians running away. The next thing that Sailor Moon shot her stare at the two youmas. "Where did Kira-chan and Liara-chan go?!"
Just as Sailor Moon had addressed the others, a voice called out to them which came from the rooftop of the archery building.
"They're safe. Both are exiting the area together."

User Image

The answer caused Sailor Moon to look up and watch the slender figure jump down from the building and land in front of the stage. It was Sailor Star Catcher. It was rather strange not seeing her with Kira or even around Alita, concerned, Sailor Moon spoke up again. "Sailor Star Catcher?! Why didn't you go with them?"
"They will be fine, I'm sure it won't take us long to finish these youmas." Star Catcher had intentionally avoided Sailor Moon's question of why she was there and not with her Princess.
"NO! You can't!"

Chibi Moon yelled out, looking over at Sailor Saturn for a moment, then back towards Star Catcher again. "These are humans! We can't hurt them! The Dragon is Sailor Saturn's fiancรฉ!"
Frowning, Star Catcher gave a light sigh, she didn't mean that she was going to 'hurt' them but could tell the pink-haired girl seemed rather protective of Sailor Saturn. Star Catcher, being new to the group had not really spoken to the Outer Senshi much and therefore had not been exposed to any of their relationships with one another.

Luna did a lot of observing during this time and left the group after Liara had kept them company, only to follow behind Alita as the girl listened to Kira and Yaten's conversation. Luna, being the advisor she is, had been keeping a close eye on Alita. At this point, Artemis was still in his cat-carrier Minako had put him into, which he was struggling to get out, it was tightly sealed shut.

The dark crescent-moon cat was able to hear Alita due to her ability as a feline, even though Alita had been loudly whispering as best she could to Kira and Yaten, explaining her app and the functions it used, Luna heard her and this struck the feline as to why this particular individual had information not even Luna or Artemis had. Her technology was very advanced for someone who has no magical abilities, which made Luna even more suspicious. How exactly was Alita getting this information in the first place?
Taiki and Seiya both went up on stage and began to sing, Yaten followed not long after and Alita swiftly appeared at the front of the stage, cheering them on like any fan would. Luna observed from a distance, seeing if what Alita had said was going to be true, then the thought of Alita being a potential enemy was the first thing that crossed the feline's mind.
Alita seemed so innocent, heart-warming, kind, and empathetic. These are your standard 'bad-guy traits' to lure the Sailor Senshi into loving a character and then next get their hearts ripped right from their chests, so to speak!

The singing continued and the thick cloudy aura waves emitted from human to human and traveled to two sources. Seto and Kira's archery teacher. Everything became hazy as if you were drunk but without the alcohol. It was such a strange feeling, yet very alarming to the cat as her senses were heightened. Dashing off into the crowd, Luna had to try not to get stepped on, and the heck with Artemis, wherever he was Luna had no idea at this stage. Most likely struggling to get out of the cat carrier!

The song had ended, and just like Alita had predicted the two humans began to change, luckily, Sailor Uranus was already ready to fight. "Usagi! Everyone! The Youma's are close to transforming! We have to go!"

"Y-Yeah... I guess." Usagi sighed and turned to Seiya trying to tell them something in sign language. The group rushed around the back of the stage where the Outers were, and all transformed. Minako had taken Artemis with her and completely ignored the fact HE WAS STILL INSIDE. Clearly, her mind was currently elsewhere much to Artemis's annoyance.

Meanwhile, Luna scanned around for the cat carrier and spotted Liara talking to Kira, pushing her car keys into the archer's hand. Minako was now long gone, still holding the cat carrier and the group disappeared around the back of the stage together to transform. "Artemis?!" The feline called out several times. "Artemis?! Where are you?!" The feline called out again, as she turned her gaze she noticed a stream of colorful lights beaming from behind the stage. Following the same way Usagi, Mamoru, and the girls went, Luna found poor Artemis still stuck inside the carrier that was abandoned on the ground so carelessly. "Sheesh Artemis! I thought you were dead!" Not giving the poor cat any credit that he could stand up on his own for a few blows if the youmas attacked him.
Lifting her paw, she let her claws come out and tried to hack away at the zipper on the side, then used her mouth to struggle pull at the zipper to open it up. "This.... is.... tougher....then....it.....looks..... Why did Minako leave you here like this?!" She exclaimed, getting a bit frustrated as she stopped pulling the zipper to finish the rest of her sentence.

Finally, Artemis was free which caused Luna to step back to give him some space to get out, and confine Artemis of her findings. "Enough silliness aside, Artemis, there's something I need to tell you."

User Image

Since Artemis was present when Taiki was telling the group about the app, Artemis would have been told the same thing Luna heard from Alita when she was eavesdropping. Alita had made an app, that told you the location of any unusual activities around the city, where the youma was located, and body temperatures that could tell you if a person was abnormal/ or infected. Luna wondered if Artemis had thought the same thing she was thinking. "That app Alita made, Taiki has it on their phone now, if only we could also get a copy we can look into it some more. Don't you find it odd she was able to make such a thing? Something so advanced? I don't even think Ami has something of that high tech, only her visor and mini computer she carries."

User Image

"Artemis, don't you think it's strange? Perhaps Liara has something to do with it since she has some knowledge behind youmas? The other thought was Alita could be a youma herself, or worse. I can't put my paw on it... the more I think about it, it gives me a headache. The only thing we can do is keep watch of her... if she is a youma or a member of the dark moon, then we cannot have her near Sailor Moon! What are your thoughts?" Luna asked, casting a quick glance at the group to see if anyone else was listening to them (Mamoru?) and then back towards Artemis again.

By this stage in the previous post, Kira had just grabbed Alita to tell her that they were getting out of the area.

Artemis still did not entirely understand why he had been kept in a pet carrier, especially when Luna was free to wander about. Oh well, he ultimately decided it was not worth the argument... until this moment. Things were getting serious, and the white cat had been left behind. He desperately pawed and scratched at the carrier, trying to do whatever he could to free himself-- calling out to whoever might hear him. "Hello?! Minako, Luna, Usagi?! Anyone! Get me out of here!" Artemis thrust his little body at the mesh door, to no avail. He meowed in frustration, his brow twitching-- until, at last, a savior came. "Luna!" He called to her, his tail standing up and wagging with excitement.

"This.... is.... tougher....then....it.....looks..... Why did Minako leave you here like this?!"

Artemis shrugged, but before he could answer he was free! The feline would shake himself off, before stepping out of the carrier and sitting across from Luna. He inhaled deeply, before pawing at one of his ears. "Thank you, I was worried I would never get out of that thing!" He turned around and hissed, before scratching at the carrier. That was, until Luna caught his attention once more.

"Artemis, there's something I need to tell you."

Artemis turned, a look of concern coming over his face as he listened to Luna recall everything she had heard about Alita, the app, and the youmas. "It's very odd, indeed... even more peculiar, I could tell something seemed off with Minako as well. I didn't get the chance to talk to her about it,
because... well-- you know",
he indicated back toward the carrier. "Whatever the case may be, I trust your intuition, Luna. I think we should be on our guard. We still don't entirely understand who our enemy is, or what they're after. Do you think Sailor Moon will take your advice to keep away from her?"

"I wouldn't worry about Sailor Moon." Artemis's eyes widened with surprise, his hackles raising as he quickly leapt around to face the newcomer. When he saw that it was Mamoru, he settled some and tilted his head. "Oh, Mamoru, it's just you... what do you mean?" Mamoru stepped forward. "Time and time again, Sailor Moon has risen to the occasion and saved us. I think we need to trust her intuition." Artemis tilted his head slightly, casting a glance at Luna, before his gaze shifted back toward the human. "Yes, but Mamoru--" "I know Usagi better than anyone else, I know her well enough to trust her intuition. She's never let us down when it counts." Mamoru's expression softened, a smile passing over his lips. "Besides... she's just going to do the opposite of what you tell her anyway. Trust me. And, if she needs help, I'll be right there at her side." The commotion of the rampaging youmas would catch Mamoru's attention. He'd look in the direction of the noise, his expression hardening as his brows furrowed. "Speaking of which-- I'm needed elsewhere. We'll continue this conversation later, farewell for now!" He'd turn, and run off to prepare for the battle to come. "Mamoru, wait! I-- Oh..." Artemis called after, to no avail. He sat back down, before flashing a concerned glance toward Luna.

Mamoru had quickly made his change into Tuxedo Mask since running off. Leaping over the stands, his black cape would billow about him, before he would land with grace beside Eternal Sailor Moon. "Sailor Moon, Sailor Chibi-Moon!" He'd call to them, before his sapphire hues fell upon Sailor Star Catcher. He'd offer a slight nod, before continuing "Sailor Star Catcher." He'd rise to his full height, flourishing his cape from being draped about his shoulders to hanging behind him. "Sailor Chibi-Moon is right, we need to engage these youma with care not to hurt the humans they now possess." He'd glance over to Usagi, his eyes flashing with determination beneath his mask. "Sailor Moon-- if Sailor Star Catcher and I provide a proficient distraction, do you think you and Sailor Chibi-Moon can heal the youma?"

Her eyes scanned the area while the Three Lights were singing. The crowd cheered loudly as expected, but at the same time, Sailor Uranus noticed there was a small noticeable aura that began to emit off the civilian's bodies and toward the youmas in question.
"There." She thought to herself, now that Sailor Neptune had stepped by her side after transforming herself, bit by bit, everyone else had followed suit. "It sounds like Seto has transformed as well." Sailor Saturn said, causing the sky senshi to look over her way. "We should split up and each group can weaken one of the phages before we get Sailor Moon to reverse their transformation."

"Good idea, but if these are phages then they still need to be weakened as they could still potentially cause damage and throw off our attacks." Sailor Uranus said.
"This looks like it could be bad guys we are going to have to be careful with all this lightning." Saturn spoke again.
"It will be hard, and we don't know how strong they are either..." Adding to what Sailor Saturn said. "Don't worry, Saturn, we won't hurt them...we won't hurt Kaiba."
It was going to be hard enough, two youmas to deal with. Her eyes shifted to the Three Lights - now Sailor Starlights. However the crowd had begun to divert and screams were heard, not to mention the youmas who made themselves apparent they were there.
Witnessing the swift movement from Alita and Kira who made themselves scarce pretty fast. Noticing the stage cameras had not been switched off yet by the red light that indicated they were on made Sailor Uranus take a step out from behind the stage, and held out her hand making the sword appear in it.

User Image


"Space.... Sword Blaster!"


Aiming her sword at the cameras, a beam of light hit singly destroying them one at a time around the area as this would switch the 'Live' mode off from being watched on any device. It was too late by then, to hide the Three Lights disguises. Now, the Sky Senshi had focused her gaze back toward the youma.
"Alita-chan?!... Kira-chan?!"
"Where did Kira-chan and Liara-chan go?!"
"They're safe. Both are exiting the area together."

Her attention once again got distracted by the Starlight who jumped off the rooftop and then levitated towards the ground.

"Sailor Star Catcher?! Why didn't you go with them?"
"They will be fine, I'm sure it won't take us long to finish these youmas."
"NO! You can't! These are humans! We can't hurt them! The Dragon is Sailor Saturn's fiancรฉ!"

"Sailor Moon, Sailor Chibi-Moon!" Tuxedo Mask had called out to them, seeming to overhear the conversation and as usual, arriving just in time. "Sailor Star Catcher." He said, addressing the newer Starlight. "Sailor Chibi-Moon is right, we need to engage these youma with care not to hurt the humans they now possess." He'd glance over to Usagi, his eyes flashing with determination beneath his mask. "Sailor Moon-- if Sailor Star Catcher and I provide a proficient distraction, do you think you and Sailor Chibi-Moon can heal the youma?"

Sailor Uranus had watched the conversation and looked over at the person who spoke, then to the other as each of the members of the group had something to say. Her gaze fell back on Sailor Star Catcher, of course, she was the newest and didn't know the relationship between each person. "Sailor Moon, while you heal one of the youmas, we will use half our attack power on the other. I don't think all of us should attack at the same time either, have an attack on standby." Taking a step forward, she looked at Seto. "I'll start with Kaiba, and don't worry... I will be gentle."
Thinking about how Saturn would be feeling, it would be tough for her to bring herself to fight Seto, so if it was anyone that was going to do it, it would be someone Sailor Saturn trusts most.
Raising her hand in the air, Sailor Uranus chanted.

User Image

"World... Shaking!"


While her attack appeared in her hand, she blasted it into the ground and the concrete below them caved inwards and turned to ruin. Hoping this would make the ground unstable, and the youma would somehow fall over, or be distracted for a moment, Sailor Uranus knew Sailor Neptune would be the next person to attack Seto, whereas Tuxedo Mask and Star Catcher would deal with the other youma.

As Yaten Kou began to sing beside his bandmates, all he could think of under the multiple cones of shining light; lighting up their features was of a singular girl out in the crowd that had his heart. Slightly gripping the standing microphone stand out before him. He withdrew the microphone itself from the stand and moved to his placement along the stage.

"Koikogarezu ni kono ai ni
Oborenayo, oborenayo"


( "Longing so deeply for this love
Donโ€™t drown in it, donโ€™t drown" )


"Doko ni itatte kono uta de
Furimukaseru, furimukaseru"


( "No matter where Iโ€™m singing from, this song will
Make you turn your head, make you turn your head" )


"Boku o mitsumena
Koe o agena
Sono kuchibiru wa boku ga ubau no sa"


( "Donโ€™t look at me like that
Donโ€™t raise your voice
Iโ€™ll snatch those lips away" )


"Boku o mitsumena
Koe o agena
Kimi no subete wa boku ga ubau no sa"


( "Donโ€™t look at me like that
Donโ€™t raise your voice
Iโ€™ll snatch away your everything" )


At the moment he moved, he felt a familiar weight placed along his shoulder casting a glance to side he could see Seiya. Smiling in between words, he responded with a wink as he continued to sing. The words of the song flowed out naturally. The true meaning behind the words couldn't just be stated in song, they came from emotion. Deep emotion from within. Lifting his emerald eyes up he could see Alita waving her arms in the air just like the others. His smile widened as he saw Seiya move from where he had greeted with him towards Alita among the sea of fans. The excitement in Alita's expression was mesmerizing. Her first real concert live and in person! Shifting his gaze momentarily away from Alita and over towards Taiki, he wondered if he realized just whom she was looking at other than him and Seiya.


"Sono kokoro ga yami ni nomarete mo
Donna toki mo boku ga mamoru kara oh youโ€ฆ oh youโ€ฆ"
( "Even if your heart is swallowed up by darkness
Iโ€™ll protect you no matter what oh youโ€ฆ oh youโ€ฆ" )


"Itsumo ore wa pลkฤ feisu sa
Kimi dake ni sugao misetainda only youโ€ฆ only youโ€ฆ"

( "I always wear a poker face
Youโ€™re the only one that I want to show my true face to only youโ€ฆ only youโ€ฆ" )


"Tomedo naku furu hoshi no pawฤ de
Hikari no michi tadotte mitsukeruyo"

( "With the power of the endlessly falling stars
I will be able to find the path of light" )



Breaking his gaze away from Taiki and back towards the crowd, hoping that in the distance she was not only watching and listening but feeling the words of the song being sang out towards their audience. Hoping that Kira heard what she had sang to them that night. Realizing that they heard her calling in song. Not just hearing the song with their ears but with their hearts, minds and souls.

Their trained ears for music had allowed them to memorize how the notes of the song sounded as Kira sang. The written lyrics weren't just empty words written on the pages of a book... no those written words had been craftily printed with a guided hand who not only spoke the words from the heart but words spoken from the soul. There is meaning behind each and every word being voiced out, for those finely tuned ears listening in the audience a message was being brought out. Keywords that only some, would understand the true meaning to what was being sung out to the crowd.

"Kibล no hikari ga kieta tte

Iโ€™ll illuminate it, Iโ€™ll illuminate it
At the edge of your line of sight,
There we are, there we are" )


"Boku o mitsumena

( "Longing so deeply for this love

Even with the crowd of people screaming and shouting their names, there was another sound that sounded ungodly. A blood curdling scream of something happening to someone, something painful and sudden. A scream that was different from everyone else's. The scream appeared to overpower the positive shouts in the air to something much more frightening which caused the sea of people to part and back up away from the person screaming in agony.

In what felt like a matter of minutes was practically a matter of seconds. To everyone who had turned their attention away from the Three Lights and towards the person whose body had contorted into some unnatural position the screaming stopped. The crumpled body that was mangled along the ground shot straight up like a gunshot going off and the expression of the individual looked like something out a horror movie!

User Image


It took less than a minute for the fans to realize that this was NOT part of the show and that was danger before them! The sounds of people trying to scramble away by shoving others by force, screams commenced on a higher level as the general public panicked and was doing whatever they could to get to safety. Not thinking about helping their neighbors, it was everyone for themselves! The sight of people getting trampled on others as people ran in fear was a huge shock factor to many within the crowd.

"PLEASE EVACUATE THE AREA IMMEDIATELY - THIS IS NOT A DRILL - PLEASE EVACUATE THE AREA IMMEDIATELY."

This must be the youma that Alita had warned him about when Alita had shown the screen of her phone towards him earlier. All of the techno-mumbo-jumbo, meant little to him because Yaten wasn't really tech savvy unlike Taiki is. The person who would totally appreciate the craftsmanship that Alita had designed. The background music had ceased along with their singing as their attention was drawn in on the panic along the crowd. It was chaos!

User Image


As the stirred up dirt clouds from where people scattered off to in multiple directions stood that lonesome crazed figure. The youma had turned its attention towards a singular person who had not run. Perhaps stunned by what transition before them or just out of fear. Seeing who that person was, now that the youma seemed interested in the individual. Before Yaten or Seiya had time to say anything Taiki shouted out along the speakers trying to get Alita's attention.

"Alita! Run!"

Within the blink of an eye Taiki had withdrawn his own Star Change Star from within his coat jacket and shouted out,
"Maker Star Power - Makeup!"


User Image


There was no hesitation from either Seiya or Yaten at this point, following in cue.

User Image

"Fighter Star Power - Makeup!"

User Image

"Healer Star Power - Makeup!"


No point hiding their identities then. Everyone that was tuned in on live tv saw the spontaneous transformation the Three Lights did! The light from their transformation must have been some kind of a distraction, for in the midst of their transformations. Star Healer could have sworn she saw Kira dart her way through the crowd towards the stage, while the bulk of the crowd of people were running in the opposite direction for cover. Realizing she must have gone after Alita to make sure that she too got to safety. In the time it took for their display of light to show out to the world, it was in that an instant Kira had accomplished her mission and managed to lead Alita away from danger and followed the flow of people to the four winds.

"They must have taken cover... I hope."

Scanning what was left of the concert grounds, "I do believe that you are right, Star Fighter."

User Image


Turning her body to where she faced the both of her teammates, she cast a glance in what would appear to be the direction to where she thought Kira and Alita had departed towards. Turning her attention back at Star Fighter and Star Maker, "And I am going to make sure that they both got out safely." Taking a step back, as she provided a two finger saluting wave to the side of her headset towards her fellow Starlights.

"I believe you two can handle everything from here on out. Besides..." Trading a glance towards Sailor Star Maker then. Knowing fully well that Taiki would never really admit his feelings until he felt ready to do so, "I don't think that I would ever be forgiven if something happened to a certain someone who they just met. Someone who is precious to them. Whether they are willing to admit it openly or not. Don't worry so much Star Maker, I won't let anyone harm her. As long as I can still draw my breath." Keeping her emerald eyes locked firmly with Star Maker's indigo eyes, "That's a promise." What Star Healer just said to Star Maker may have sounded like a verbal punch in return to the physical punch dealt not too long ago. Perhaps more of a jab. The point is, she had forgiven Star Maker's actions and wasn't angry with her anymore. To prove her point, she was going to protect Alita's life with her own if necessary.

Taking a step back and away from both Star Fighter and Star Maker, a light tap along side her headset, "I'll keep in touch and if anything comes up where I know that I will need backup? I know who I can call upon and know that they will be there in an instant." Sailor Star Healer smiled warmly at her fellow teammates and siblings, in the time it would have taken a person to blink her image would have transformed into a ball of light and shot up and out of sight. Departing the area to head in the general direction of where Kira had lead Alita to safety.

User Image


Unless what people in general knew what to look for in a shooting star in daylight, they more than likely didn't see her. Flying swiftly in a green light that could barely be seen with the surrounding scenery. At the transport speed Star Healer was flying at, she was taking the time to scan the grounds beneath her. Identifying everything that she spotted and a possibility to the direction of where the two might have run off to. Figuring that Kira must have run off in the direction to where Liara, Seiya and Taiki's cars might be at. Knowing that area quite well, she turned from the height that she was flying at and came closer to the ground level.

Still a small ball of green light that blended in perfectly with the surroundings. Slowing her speed down as she descended, she realized that she whipped past a sole figure with ginger hair. Glancing back in her flight pattern, she noticed that out of everyone that was scattering away from the area she was standing still. Perhaps in shock? In disbelief? Thinking nothing of the person she continued onwards, to where she saw the three vehicles in the parking lot. Seiya's and Taiki's cars were empty, while Liara's had a set of two individuals inside. Which lead her to believe it was both Kira and Alita. Stopping just a few mere inches from the car door that Kira was in the process of closing, her body rematerialized in a shimmer of sparkling stars and a green aura that surrounded her entire being.

User Image


Reaching out at the right exact timing, she stopped the door from closing. With her gloved hand settling along the door handle, knowing that Kira was obviously distracted because it appeared she had been in the process of speaking to Alita. Star Healer decided to speak casually instead of signature snarkiness. "Do you have room .. for one.. more?" The right corner of Star Healer's mouth curved into a playful smile as she awaited for the both of them to react to her comment of invitation.

Placing a hand on her hip, Star Maker looked at where Alita and Kira were in the crowd before they fled, then back at Star Fighter.

Quote:
"And I am going to make sure that they both got out safely."


Star Healer gave them both a two-finger salute before she went after them but then added:

"I believe you two can handle everything from here on out. Besides..."


Star Healer looked at Star Maker, causing her to glance back.

The intense stare Star Healer gave was like a verbal punch. Star Maker knew better than to argue. No, Star Healer had won. Star Maker glanced down after hearing this, gripping her gloved hand tightly into a fist; the gritting sound of leather was apparent as you could hear how tight she was rolling her hand into a fist.

Quote:
"That's a promise."


As Star Healer took a step back, Star Maker's grip relaxed, coming to terms with Star Healer's comment.

Quote:
"I'll keep in touch, and if anything comes up where I know that I will need backup... I know who I can call upon, and I know that they will be there in an instant."


The Starlight had green sparkles coming off her body as she lit up; her form changed into a glowing ball of light and shot toward Liara's car. Watching the Starlight make her exit gave Star Maker some thought. Her words truly cut deep, and you could easily tell Star Maker seemed bothered, even annoyedโ€”annoyed at herself.

"You're right, Star Healer. You, of all people, understand this, perhaps more than Star Fighter now." Maker thought to herself.

Turning to the leader, Star Maker spoke up. "Leader, I..." Thinking something and saying it were really two different things, but the end result was the same. Star Maker didn't really understand how Healer felt, but Star Healer's actions spoke very loudly to her, and it was at this moment Star Maker admitted something to herself that she had been too scared to bring to the surface, especially in front of Star Healer.

"I also need to be somewhere, to protect them. I can't explain this feeling, but... Star Healer... she's right. I have another duty to attend to. I believe you have more than enough cover from the Inner and Outer Senshi. Like Star Healer... I also must allow myself to follow my heart."

Star Maker didn't wait for Star Fighter's approval; she made it very clear she was adamant about her decision and chose to also follow suit, turning herself into a purple glowing shooting star, following after Star Healer.

User Image

Alita's frown soon changed as she saw something move on Kira's side of the car. Stopping Kira from closing the door and purposely getting in the way, Star Healer's voice instantly made the unhappy Alita look up, and her frown changed to surprise. Kira leaned in, about to close the door. She was still looking at Alita, but her hand lightly brushed against Star Healer's thigh, which caused the archer to instantly get a bit of a fright as she retracted her hand away from Healer. A light gasp came to her mouth as Star Healer spoke.

Quote:
"Do you have room... for one... more?"


Alita's expression lit up, and sparkles came to her eyes as they twinkled. "Sailor Star Healer?!" she exclaimed again in her own little whisper as loudly as she could. Turning to her door, Alita opened it up and rushed over to Star Healer's side, and the first thing she did was throw her arms around the Starlight's waist and pull her in for a hug. "You came back!"

User Image

Kira, however, just froze on the spot as she stared up at Star Healer while thinking to herself. "Star Healer?... but why? She shouldn't be here... she should be with the other two, and the rest of their group!" Kira thought to herself.

Letting go, Alita answered Star Healer and took her gloved hand, leading the Starlight around to the passenger side of the front seat. "Come! come! Sit here!" she said, gesturing for Healer to sit in the front seat, close to Kira.
"Very subtle, Alita..." Kira muttered, and then noticed a purple glowing light in the window past Star Healer, until the form made themselves visible.

Kira just had no words, and it seemed that Alita took the lead on this situation. Once Star Healer got in and sat next to Kira, Kira continued to think to herself, "It's strange, but... the only time I vividly remember Star Healer was back at the concert... before I was hit by the youma... Does this mean this whole time... up until now, I was under the youma's influence?" Everything was much clearer to Kira now; it didn't feel like a dream.

Letting Star Healer sit down, Kira couldn't help but just... STARE, like in a state of shock. It took a few seconds for Kira to wake up, but she blinked and tried to muster some movement and force herself to say SOMETHING. ANYTHING.

"Y-You... why?..."

User Image

Alita stood there and watched the two in the car talking. She took out her phone from her pocket and looked at the app. Feeling a gentle hand placed on her shoulder, a familiar but soft voice followed, trying not to startle the girl as Star Healer did moments before, as Star Maker walked up behind her. "...Has the app found something?" Seeing her look a bit invested into her app again.

User Image
User Image

Alita blinked and turned to face the Starlight. Her expression looked as if she were trying to think who that was for a moment, but it was literally seconds until she gasped and another big smile beamed on her face. "Another Starlight?!" Giving out another hug, she threw her arms around Star Maker's waist and hugged her. "I'm so happy!" she whispered and closed her eyes. Thinking about who it was only came second, which caused her to snap open her eyes and a wave of red flushed her cheeks. "Wait a minute... this is..." She thought, quickly letting go, Alita felt flustered and waved her arms up and down in frustration. "Sorry! I---I just realized! S-Sorry! I completely invaded your personal space! I'm so sorry!"

User Image

Seeing Alita react this way wasn't usual fangirl business. "Well--actually I was the one who--" Star Maker tried to get a word in to calm the girl down, trying to tell Alita it was herself who got close to the flustered girl, looking over her shoulder to see the app as Star Maker was genuinely curious.

User Image

"Wow! Purple?!" Alita's eyes glittered. "Your attire matches your eyes just like Star Healer's! That's so cool!" Alita seemed to recover rather fast and then seemed interested in Star Maker, Alita took hold of Star Maker's gloved hand and then noticed the detail on her upper arm and also her neckpiece, which was again different from Star Healer's. "Wow, fascinating! You all seem to have your own design...just like..." Alita said loud enough in her whispered tone, and then her expression changed, causing her to frown and seem deep in thought for some reason, darting her eyes off to the side.

"Heh, I guess you're right, it's not something I have thought about before," Star Maker answered and then also thought, "Taking notice of what we all wear so fast to notice they are different? She has amazing attention to detail..." Pondering on this, and noticing how her bubbly exterior rapidly changed. "Alita... are you... okay?"

Alita looked back at Star Maker, realizing she had become serious all of a sudden. She knew she needed to recover herself fast. "Hm? Y-Yes! S-So why did you follow us? Are you coming too?"

"I thinkโ€”WE think that would be wise," Star Maker said, answering her for both Healer and herself.

"But... you and Star Healer... you both are... friends again? The Three Lights won't split?" Alita was careful with her words, but she couldn't help but look at both of Star Maker's gloved hands for a moment, remembering what Yaten said, the punch.

User Image

Star Maker was quick to pick up on hints and thought, "Does she know...?"
Seeing Alita's eyes travel and then back up to her face again, Star Maker nodded. "You have nothing to worry about, I promise. I made a mistake; I'd take it all back if I could."

Sighing in relief, Alita was happy to hear those words.

While Star Maker and Alita's chatter was going on, Kira shook off the startled expression she had and turned her body towards Star Healer as she got forced pulled to sit beside Kira in the car in the front seat. "...Hey...um...Star Healer... I--...we... need to have a chat... about everything at some point when this is all over with. I... know I haven't been myself; to be honest, I only felt like I just woke up." Taking her hands off the steering wheel, Kira placed both hands on her own lap, her teal gaze looked very lifelike, and her eyes glowed as she stared at the Starlight.

User Image

"My mind is clear now, but everything in the past is still blurred. I began to feel different the moment I left the stadium the night of the Three Lights concert... the last thing I really remember is passing out from the pain from when I was attacked." Kira sat up straight and noticed the yellow rose in her hair as she looked in the rearview mirror. "It's as if someone has pressed the 'restart button,' and.. here we are... back to the start." Looking back at Star Healer, her expression was still rather serious. "I have bits and pieces of my memory as Princess Nova, but I am not her because she died alone." Kira hinted that she wasn't alone now and that things would be different.
