Dear Whoever Is Reading this:

Hi! Fuuiin here! NEwayz. You are all probably wondering what thisstory is all about. Well, I'll tell you.

As I'm reading, or watching the Sailor Moon series, I can't help butbe touched by Usagi and Mamoru's love. Then...I couldn't help but start feeling sorry for the other Sailors because it seems as if they don't have a special someone that they can be with. Of course, nothing can compare to Usagi and Mamoru, but this story is for Minako, Ami, Rei, and Makoto. It was inspired by that picture with all eight of them together, all warm and snuggly. To find out who the other four are...READ! Bye now ~.^

P.S. This story happens after the battle with Galaxia. I loved all the Sailors so the Sailor Stars are in it too. Oh yeah, and Nephrite and Usagi's friend whose name I suddenly can't remember never had their little fling.

Part I

Minako walked into the arcade, looking for her friends. All the Sailors Senshis were gathered in a group, watching Usagi and Haruka racing cars on the virtual simulator.

"Go Usagi-chan!" Ami cheered on.

"Ahhh! I'm going to crash!" Usagi screamed and the race was over. Haruka had won.

"Nice try meat-ball head," Haruka took off her helmet and petted Usagi on the head, "You're getting better."

Minako smiled. No matter how hard Usagi tried, she wouldn't beat Haruka. Haruka was a professional racer after all.

"Hey Minako-chan!" Makoto greeted and the others joined in.

"Hi everybody," Minako grinned. Nothing could compare to the happiness she felt when she was together with all of the Sailor Senshis. "Sorry I'm late. What's this emergency meeting about?"

They haven't had a formal meeting in such a long time. A year to be exact. After the major battle with Galaxia, they had settled into a relatively peaceful life. Mamoru had been studying abroad in the United States and now he was coming back.

All of them, Usagi, Ami, Rei, Makoto, Chibi-Usa (had come to visit again), Hotaru, Haruka, Michiru, Setsuna, and Minako, grabbed a seat to sit down. Luna sat on Usagi's lap, Diana perched gracefully on Chibi-Usa's shoulder, and Artemis situated himself in Minako's lap.

"Well, as you know, Mamo-chan is coming back," Usagi smiled as she said this, "And you know those rocks that he has with him?"

"The ones with the souls of Malachite and them?" Minako asked, furrowing her brow.

"Yeah, those. Well, Mamoru thinks he's found a way to bring them back to life," Usagi finished.

Everybody was silent. Minako, Rei, Ami, and Makoto looked at each other. Those four, Jadeite, Nephrite, Zoicite, and Malachite, were the first enemies they had fought. Although at the time, they had been brainwashed by Queen Beryl, the thought of them coming back still made Minako a little uneasy.

"Are you sure that's a good idea?" Minako was the first to respond.

"Well," Usagi looked off into the distance, "I think they deserve another chance to live. It's not their fault that they were brainwashed by Beryl...Mamoru really trust them."

"What do you think Rei-chan?" Ami asked.

"Yeah, Rei-chan, any premonitions?" Makoto asked.

"Actually, I don't feel anything. I'll do a fire reading tonight just to be sure," Rei told the rest of the Senshis. "I have to agree with meat-ball head here, though. They do deserve another chance."

Minako, Ami, Makoto, and Usagi looked at Rei. This was out of her character.

Of all the people who would oppose to this, Rei should have been the first one. After all, Jadeite had used her temple to do his evil deeds.

"What I'm more concerned about is how you're going to bring them back," Luna said.

"Remember, death always gives chance for rebirth," Hotaru said cryptically.

"This is going to be very interesting," was Haruka's amused comment.

**

"Mamo-chan!" Usagi ran to embrace her love.

"Usako..." Momoru hugged her, "I've missed you so much."

Rei looked at them, smiling. Usagi was so lucky to have someone like Mamoru. Many guys have asked her to go out with them, but she was known for turning them down. The truth was because not one of them ever made her feel like this was the person she's been waiting for all her life.

On their way back from the airport, Usagi and Mamoru seemed to be lost in their own little world. Rei thought about what Mamoru wanted to do. She felt as if she should have a bad feeling about this, but she didn't. The fire reading she had done last night didn't reveal anything. Unexpectedly, she started remembering the time she discovered her powers as Sailor Mars.

Jadeite had been kidnapping students who rode the bus at six o' clock near her temple for energy. She had been lured to ride the bus and found herself in a situation she never dreamed possible. She found her powers to defeat Jadeite and became Sailor Mars.

The memory wasn't exactly unpleasant, but it made her shiver. What would they be like now, she wondered, could we really trust them?

**

A week after Mamoru's return found the Sailor Senshis back at the arcade again.

"What are you guys cooking up this time," Motoki asked when he brought the refreshments. (Note: Motoki knows about the Sailor Senshis.)

"We are planning to bring back the dead," Chibi-Usa told him.

"Okay...forget I asked," Motoki laughed, "Just as long as you don't do it here."

"How are you planning to do this Mamoru?" Minako asked.

"Well, with Malachite's help, I came across this ancient spell," he told them, "It seemed to have been made for this situation. With the power of the Silver Crystal, this will be easy."

"But performing such a task with the Silver Crystal would completely use up Usagi-chan's energy," Ami said, concerned.

"We wouldn't have to worry about that if everybody contributed a little energy." Mamoru replied.

"You mean spread out the impact?" Michiru asked.

"Yes, if we form a circle, connection ourselves to Usagi, then no one would be affected very greatly," he said, looking at each of them.

For Mamoru's sake, the Senshis all agreed to do this little experiment. **

The full moon shone overhead. It was the perfect night for magical incantations. The Sailor Senshis were gathered in the park. This was the same park where Chibi-Usa appeared and where same types of other strange things have happened. For a while, they looked at each other, thinking of what they were about to do.

"Well, let's get this over with," Haruka's strong voice sounded reassuring in the quiet night.

"Yeah, what are we waiting around for?" Makoto spoke up.

They formed a circle, joining hands. Mamoru put the rocks in the center of their circle and he went back to his part in the chain, joining hands with Usagi and Minako. All the Sailor Senshis extended their hands toward the starry sky.

"Silver Millenium Moon Crystal Power!" Usagi yelled.

"Venus Crystal Power!" Minako joined in.

"Mercury Crystal Power!"

"Mars Crystal Power!"

"Jupiter Crystal Power!"

"Saturn Crystal Power!"

"Moon Crystal Power!" (This is Chibi-Usa.)

"Uranus Crystal Power!"

"Neptune Crystal Power!"

"Pluto Crystal Power!"

The rainbow of powers shot up toward the sky. Mamoru was glowing with his own power and he chanted the ancient spell. The four rocks elevated into the air, floating and starting to spin at an impossible speed. They started glowing so bright that all the Sailor Senshis had to look away. Minako felt some of her energy being drained away, but not at a rate that she should be scared of. The glare slowly faded away, leaving them gaping at the scene before them. Jadeite, Nephrite, Zoicite, and Malachite stood in white clothing in the center of the circle. They turned as one to Mamoru.

"It is good to see you my Prince," they said at once, bowing.

"Well, I'll be. It worked!" Artemis cried, amazed.

"I'm beginning to think that Silver Crystal can do anything," Luna said as well.

"Thank you Princess Serenity, for giving us another chance." The generals were kneeling in front of Usagi and Malachite took her hand and kissed it.

"Oh nooo! I'm late!!" Minako ran past her mother, almost stepping on Artemis.

Minako dashed toward Juuban High School.

"Mina-chan!!!" Usagi's voice sounded behind her.

"Hurry up Usagi-chan!! I don't want to spend the morning standing in the hall!"

"Coming!!" Just as she said that, Usagi fell flat on her face.

"Oh, Usagi-chan!!" Minako ran to see if Usagi was okay.

"It's not fair!!" Usagi had tears streaming down her face now.

The bell rang in the distance and Minako had a big sweat-drop on her head, trying to get Usagi to stop crying.

"Aino Minako," the teacher called just as Minako rushed in with Usagi trailing behind.

"Late, Ms. Aino?" the teacher, Mrs. Teluman fixed her with one of those nasty looks, "Ms. Tsukino. Looks like you will have some company today."

Minako and Usagi left the class in disgrace. This was embarrassing. Two high school girls standing out here in the hall like a bunch of idiots.

"Excuse me," someone tapped Minako on the shoulder, "Is this Mrs. Teluman's class?"

Minako and Usagi looked at whom had spoken and gaped. A pair of twins stood in front of them. They were both clearly model material and their skin was tanned to a deep bronze color, making them look like gold statues of some ancient goddesses. Their fiery hair matched each other by every single strand, flowing loosely, framing their perfect figure. Minako rubbed her eyes.

"Uh...yes," Minako managed to say.

"Hi, my name is Seikano Hikali," one of the girls said.

"Why are you talking to these idiots?" the other girl asked with her nose in the air, "We got what we want."

"And this is my sister, Seikano Anya," Hikali said friendly.

"Nice to meet you Hikali-chan, Anya-chan," Usagi greeted back, "I'm Tsukino Usagi and this is Aino Minako."

The two girls exchanged glances at Usagi's name. Minako couldn't help but feel a little uneasy. There seemed to be something amiss with these two. Then, she cursed herself, she was starting to sound like Rei.

Hikali and Anya went into the classroom, leaving them alone again.

"Usagi-chan?" Minako asked after a while of solitary contemplation.

"Yeah?" Usagi turned to her.

"Do you think the Generals can really be trusted?" Minako asked.

"Jadeite, Nephrite, Zoicite, and Malachite?" Usagi looked suddenly very mature, "I believe that anyone can change. I really think that the Generals can be trusted."

"Well, I'm glad to hear you say that," Minako whispered.

Standing there, Minako looked at the blue sky and another thought followed unintentionally. They reminded her of Malachite's eyes, so deep and yet light. She let herself drift into one of her memories from her past life...

She had been Venus, Princess Serenity's primary guard and friend. When Princess Serenity had started disappearing for periods of time, Venus knew that she had gone to see Prince Endymion.

"Serenity!" Venus found her in one of Earth's palace gardens, "You're here again?! Let's just go home now."

"No, Venus," Serenity said stubbornly.

"It's too dangerous to be here right now," Venus pleaded with her, "And, it's too risky to get attached to the Prince."

"You've never really liked anyone Venus," Serenity had turned to her with annoyance, "You don't understand how I feel."

Just then, Prince Endymion and one of his generals came upon them. Serenity ran to embrace the Prince.

"It must be very tiring handling a Princess whose so curious and headstrong," the general had commented.

"You have no idea," Venus replied.

"Actually, I do. My Prince is the same way," the general said to her, "It's a wonder how those two get along."

"Malachite! I heard that!" Prince Endymion had yelled to them.

That had been a time long ago. It had been right before the big battle with Queen Beryl. They do deserve another chance, Minako reflected, before their brainwashing, we were all the same. We were all just trying to do our job and protect our beloved Prince or Princess.

Rei knelt in front of the fire, meditating. The fire took on the shape of the sun in her mind and she could see the little curls of flame, sun flares... Something blasted out of the sun then, two phoenixes, and then the fire returned to normal.

"I sense the coming of another battle," she said quietly to herself.

Just then, Phoebes and Demos, her two crows, sounded a warning.

"Who's there?" Rei whirled around, preparing to defend herself if need be.

"Relax, it's just me," a male tenor voice sounded out of the shadows and it was Jadeite.

Rei relaxed a little, "What are you doing here?"

"Just walking around," Jadeite said in a light voice, "Trying to get used to being in a human body again. It sure feels different than being inside a rock."

Rei relaxed a little more. Sensing that he had more to say, she stood there quietly.

Jadeite finally gave in, "The real reason I came here was because...I wanted to say that I was sorry and I wanted to know if you can forgive me."

"For what?" Rei asked, trying to stall so that she could sort things out in her mind.

"For all those people that I hurt using the reputation of your temple and for harming you..." he looked at her hopefully.

Rei looked back at him levelly. He seemed sincere enough...

"It wasn't really your fault..." Rei started saying and he moved forward a little, but she stepped back warily.

"I wish we could have met under different circumstances," he said quietly, "But, I guess that's not possible now..." Jadeite turned and strode away into the receding sunset.

Rei watched his dwindling silhouette from the temple. "I forgive you..." she said quietly to his back.
