Nehelenia attacked Sailor Chibi
Moon, but Mamoru draped himself around his future-daughter.
Simultaneously, he transformed into Tuxedo Kamen. Nehelenia
paused, breathless. |
Nehelenia looked around. The
color of each planet glowed above the tiara of each senshi as they
gathered
their powers. |
Nehelenia heard the girl's
voices. "Don't be afraid." "You're not alone now," said Sailor Uranus. "Nobody can live alone with a frozen heart," said Neptune. "Please, open your heart said Sailor Mars. "You can right your wrongs," said Sailor Pluto. "Have courage," said Sailor Venus. "Believe in yourself", "said Jupiter. "Believe in us," said Sailor Saturn. "Believe in Usagi," said Sailor Chibi Moon. |
Usagi transformed into Eternal
Sailor Moon. |
Eternal Sailor Moon held forth
her sceptre.
The sceptre grew to become a full staff. "This is powerful
energy that we've gathered for you," she said. "Now, remember your true
dream, from long ago..." "My... real dream?" murmured Nehelenia. |
The light from Eternal Sailor
Moon's staff rose upwards through the open room of the palace. A
white light started to come down. Nehelenia looked up.
"This warm light..." "I was... that's right... I was looking for friends..." "Is it possible... to try again...?" The light from Eternal Sailor Moon's staff touched the sky and the dark eclipse covering the white moon slipped aside. |
The Mirror of Dreams shattered. |
Nehelenia's body disappeared as
the palace filled with light. |
Young Princess Nehelenia awoke
in her throne room. "Was a sleeping?" "Yes, came a woman's voice, for a little bit. You should go to your room and get some rest." |
"Could.... could someone read me
a bedtime story?" "Of course," came a friendly, woman's voice. |
The nightmare palace was gone. "It's over," said Tuxedo Kamen. "No," he corrected himself, "for her it's just beginning." "I hope she can become happy," wished Sailor Chibi Moon. |
"Oh, Jupiter," Eternal Sailor
Moon held out her hand. Sailor Jupiter looked into Sailor Moon's
outstretched hand and saw her red rose earrings. "Thank you."
said Sailor Moon. Back in the City Artemis, Luna, and Diana rejoiced. "It looks like they made it in time!" declared Luna. |
"A dream is only for one night,"
observed Artemis, "In the morning - a new day begins!" Sailor

Afterword
Sailor Moon's adventures aren't over yet. Japanese TV episode 172
ended with a foreshadowing of things to come. But that, as they
say,
is another story. Special thanks to the many fan groups over the
years
that made translation scripts from the Japanese edition of Sailor Stars
which enabled me to make these summaries. Thank you for visiting
and being part of the Sailor Moon fan community.Castle in the Sky |
