Back on the Moon Usagi went to her mother's room.
Usagi: Mother?
Serenity: Yes Usagi, what is wrong my dear?
Usagi: Do you trust the people of Earth?
Serenity: Of course I do, Why?
Usagi: I heard the guards are forbidding anyone to enter the Palace.
Serenity: I have not heard anything like that!
Usagi: So, you do not know?
Serenity: Know what?
Usagi: The Millennium Council is hiding something, Luna overheard a conversation and they were saying that... my father...disappeared.
Serenity: That is not true, I just talked to him a minute ago.
Usagi: But then why do they forbid the entrance to the palace?
"Because Earth soldiers are responsible for the destruction of the Outer Planets", said the king as he stepped into the room.
Usagi: But...Endymion told me...
Veridion: He is one of the traitors!, if he comes here he will be executed!!!
Usagi: Why are you doing this? , I know Endymion is not evil
Usagi ran away from the room crying. Later that night Queen Serenity went to her daughter's room
Serenity: Usagi, may I come in my dear?
Usagi: Mother, Why does Father said those awful things about Endymion?
Serenity: He is not your father, I know he is a youma, I can feel his evil heart, your father would never intent to attack Earth or Endymion. I think a long lost evil power is trying to resurface and take over this Universe. The power of the Negaverse.
Usagi: The Negaverse?.
Serenity: Yes, the dark part of our own Universe.
Usagi: But what can we do to stop it?.
Serenity: I have no other choice than to revive the Sailor Senshi to help me.
Usagi: The Sailor Senshi?
Serenity: Yes, they are warriors who have sworn to defend the universe from evil, my grandmother Selene formed them a long time ago to trap evil, now it seems that evil powers are coming back.
Usagi: And how are you going to find them?
Serenity: You my beloved daughter will have to find 5 girls that present a sign on their foreheads when you give them this brooch; It will be dangerous if we get discovered, you have to be careful. My counselors Luna and Artemis will help you on your search.
Queen Serenity gave Usagi the brooch (it resembles her original transformation brooch) and left the room.
Usagi(to herself): How am I supposed to find those 5 girls among the hundreds on the Moon?.
The next morning Usagi went to school (note: Even a Moon princess has to go to school!!!) and arrived late (some things never change!)
Rei: Can't you arrive on time for a change Usagi?
Usagi: Please not today Rei, I have a very important thing to do and I do not need a pain as you to make it more difficult!! ok?
Rei: What is it?, it is not like you are going to save the universe or something.
Usagi: I really don't think that I have to explain you.
Rei: All right, you don't have to bite my head off!!.
Luna: Usagi, aren't you late for class?
Usagi: Oh no, now it is really late!!
Usagi runs through the hall very fast and doesn't see a young girl that is walking out of the classroom and crashes.
Usagi: I am sorry, are you all right?
Girl(we can't see her face yet) : I'm Ok, you are Usagi princess of the Moon, right?
Usagi: Yes, and you must be one of the princesses that were at the dance the other night.
Girl: Yes, my name is Ami, nice to meet you.
Ami picks up her books and accidentally touches the brooch that felt out of Usagi's school bag. At that moment a sign appears on her forehead, the sign of Mercury. Luna steps into the hall and sees the sign.
Luna: The sign!, you found her Usagi!!
Ami: What do you mean?
Luna: That brooch is from Queen Serenity, her mother Queen Selene used it a long time ago to fight the evil Queen Metalia and it also helps to find the next Sailor Senshi; that means you are one of them.
Usagi: Wow, I found one of the Senshi, I am so good at this!
Luna(sweat drop): Oh bother!, you were supposed to find them, not try to kill them.
Usagi: Very funny!! Luna.
Luna: You are still late Usagi!
Usagi: Oh yeah..., gotta run!!! Bye!!!! See ya' !!!
Ami: Is Usagi also a Sailor Senshi?
Luna: Unfortunately the brooch did not react when she touched it so that means she is not one of the Senshi.
Ami: Maybe I can find out who the other Senshi are, I just have to go to the Library and do some research, nice kitty, would you like to join me?
Luna: Sure, and my name is Luna, I am one of Queen Serenity's counselors.
Usagi finished her class and went to the library were she found Ami and Luna.
Usagi: What are you doing here?, you got extra homework too???
Luna: Unlike you, Ami does study hard, she is helping me with the Senshi search.
Usagi: Hey, but that is my job!
Luna: And you really think you can do it all by yourself?
Usagi: I found one!
Luna: By accident!!
Usagi: This is just great!!, now I have to deal with two comedians, you and Rei. Why do you keep bothering me?
Luna: I don't mean to bother you, I just want to make it clear that we need a little help.
Ami: I guess I found something.
Luna: What is it?
Ami: According to these books, there were two kinds of warriors, The Millennium Knights that were men, and the Sailor Senshi that were women. The common thing is that all of them were princes and princesses from the Solar System planets.
Luna: But there are nine planets and we have to find only five.
Ami: It says in here that five Senshi were the protectors of the inner planets and the other four were from the outer planets.
Usagi: I don't get it!
Luna: She is trying to tell you that you only have to find four more princesses from the inner planets.
Usagi: Ami is the princess from Mercury, so I only have to find the princesses from Venus, Earth, Mars and Jupiter.
Ami: I know the princess of Jupiter!
Usagi: And the obnoxious Rei is Mars' princess (yuck!!)
Luna: Artemis is friends with Minako, Venus' princess!
Usagi: But there is no Earth princess!
Luna: I guess you will have to explain that to your mother then.
Usagi: O.K., lets look for the princesses.
Usagi, Ami and Luna went to the gardens were they would find Artemis.
Luna: Artemis, we found them!
Artemis: Really?, you found them or Usagi found them?
Luna: Usagi.
Artemis: Really????
Luna: She tripped her.
Artemis. Ah, that's more like it.
Usagi: Hey, stop it!!, (crying)you can be so mean!
Artemis. I'm sorry Usagi. So, who is your friend?
Ami. Hi, my name is Mizuno Ami, I am the princess of Mercury, nice to meet you.
Artemis: Nice to meet you too.
Luna: Ami found out that the Senshi are the princesses from the Inner Planets.
Artemis: Well, then let's go find out if Princess Minako is one of them, she is playing volleyball near Selene's lake.
They go to the gardens where Minako is playing.
Minako: One more point and the game is over.
Teammate: We can't loose this point.
Opponent: We might finally beat them today.
Opponent 2: Of course we will.
Minako: Don't count on it.
Minako serves and the opponents receive, they play like this for a while.
Minako: An now the final attack
Minako jumps high near the net and is about to hit the ball.
Artemis (arriving): Princess Minako!!.
Minako turns her head and is hit by the volley ball in the face. She falls to the floor.
Artemis: Ouch!, that's got to hurt.
Amy (running to Minako): You all right.
Minako(with an angry voice and the mark of the ball on her face): Yes, but Artemis is not going to be all right when I get my hands on him.
Minako stands up and starts chasing Artemis, he runs around and stands on top of a bridge; Minako runs to him and when she is about to catch him he moves and Minako falls over the small bridge and into the lake, soaking Usagi who was standing on the bridge.
Usagi: Artemis!!!!.
Artemis: Sorry?.
Usagi helps Minako up and she touches the locket while climbing. The sign of Venus appears on Minako's forehead. She is startled and pulls Usagi; they both fall to the lake again. Then they finally get out of the lake and have a very angry look.
Artemis: Hey, I didn't do anything now!.
Usagi tries to get Artemis but Ami stops her.
Ami: Don't chase him, you just saw what happened to princess Minako.
Usagi(fastidious): All right.
Minako: What was that thing on my forehead?, It was really scary.
Luna: That was the sign of Venus, that means you are the Sailor Senshi of Venus.
Minako: Sailor V, that sounds so nice!.
Artemis: Not Sailor V silly, Sailor Venus.
Minako(with an angry look): Don't start Artemis.
Artemis(smiling): Ha, what are you going to do.
Minako talks to Usagi secretly. Minako walks to Artemis while Usagi walks away.
Artemis: I just proved that I am smarter.
When he finishes the sentence Usagi jumps behind Artemis and pours a bucket of water on him.
Venus: Is the water cold?.
Artemis(angry): Brr..!
Usagi: Ha, ha , ha...so, who is smarter now?.
Luna: O.K. You had your fun, now let's go find the others.
Usagi: You are no fun Luna.
Venus: Who are you looking for next?
Ami: We have to find the princesses of Jupiter and Mars.
Venus: I just saw Jupiter's princess, she was going to climb the Moonlight Mountains.
Usagi: What?!!, but that is so high.
Luna: We have to go Usagi.
Usagi: No, I don't want to.
Luna: Don't be a crybaby.
Usagi: I'm not a crybaby.
Luna: Then let's go!
Venus: All right, lets go.
They walked to the mountains, the mountain was not very difficult to climb. Luckily for Usagi Princess Mako was already coming down the mountain.
Ami: Hi.
Mako: Ami, hi. Who are your friends?.
Venus: I am Aino Minako, Princess of Venus, nice to meet you!
Usagi: I'm Tsukino Usagi, the Moon's princess, nice to meet you!
Luna: My name is Luna and I am one of Queen Serenity's counselors.
Artemis: I am Artemis, and I am a counselor too.
Mako: Artemis?, Isn't that a girls name?.
Venus laughs hysterically
Artemis(angry): Thank you for noticing.
Mako: Sorry.
Usagi: Well, let's see, could you touch this locket?
Mako touches the locket and the sign of Jupiter appears on her forehead.
Luna: Jupiter!, You are Sailor Jupiter!
Mako: What?.
Ami: The sign on your forehead was the sign of Jupiter, you are one of the chosen ones.
Mako: Wow, that is neat!.
Artemis: Well, that went well, now let's just find Rei.
Usagi: Do we have to?
Luna: Yes, we have to!
Usagi: I was just joking, let's go.
They all went back to the castle and found Rei swimming.
Luna: Tell her Usagi.
Usagi: I don't want to.
Luna: Usagi!.
Usagi: All right, Rei
Rei: What is it?.
Usagi: Can you come out please, I have some friends who want to meet you.
Rei(stepping out of the water): Hi, my name is Hino Rei, what are you doing with a clumsy girl like Usagi?.
Usagi: I told you Luna, she is mean!.
Rei: Oh, quit it, you can't take a joke!.
Ami: Hi, I'm Ami, can you please touch Usagi's locket?
Rei: What?
Minako: We need to know something.
Rei touches the locket and the sign of Mars appears on her forehead.
Luna: So, you are Sailor Mars, the team is complete!.
Rei: What is this?.
Usagi: You silly girl, you are the Sailor Senshi of Mars!.
Rei: You are the silly girl!.
Usagi: I am not!
Rei: Are too!
Luna: Girls, just stop, we don't have time for this, remember we have to see the Queen tomorrow and I don't want you two to be angry then..
Artemis: Well, let's go.
Mako: Right after you.
