A New Unbreakable Love Is Built, Universal Crystal Appears!
Usagi’s voice: I finally realize my love to Seiya. I don’t care who I am and Seiya is actually a he or she. I only know that I love him (or her). Thanks everyone, especially Chiyoko-chan. But I don’t know how to get him back. Could you tell me?
[Title Screen]
Chiyoko and Usagi are in Chiyoko’s bedroom.
Usagi: Chiyoko-chan, I’d like to tell you that I am happy for you and Mamoru-san.
Chiyoko (exhaling with relief): Thank you. I am glad. So you wanted to…
Usagi: I’d like to talk about Seiya.
Chiyoko (surprised): Seiya-san? But I don’t really know him. Anything about him I heard from Mamoru-chan who heard from you.
Usagi: I talked with all my friends. They all agree that I am in love with him and he loved me. But I am still not sure. I would like to hear what you say.
Chiyoko (chuckles): It’s your feelings. How can I know? Love is like drinking water: only you know it is warm or cool for yourself. Only you can know if you are in love.
Usagi: But you told me that you want to be a psychologist and you read a lot of books about that. I thought might be you can give me some suggestions.
Chiyoko (sweet-dropped): Even a known psychologist can’t tell you that you are in love or not. But I can be your guide. I am going to record what you say for record. You may listen to it as an outsider and you may understand more. Is that ok with you?
Usagi nods her head continually. Then Chiyoko turns on the tape recorder.
Chiyoko: Let’s begin this way. I would like you to tell me the details of everything you shared with Seiya-san, including his reactions and your feelings.
Usagi tells Chiyoko everything in details. Then she comes to her feelings.
Usagi (blushed): When he looked at me, immediately my hands and legs started to quiver. When his hand touched mine, my heart started to pound, my palms got sweating, my throat turned raspy, and a warm sensation tingled down my body from head to leg.
Chiyoko: In a word, you felt happy and excited every time you saw him, right?
Usagi is blushed and nods.
Chiyoko: Would you feel that way to just think of him? Would you think of him very frequently?
Usagi: I thought and think of him quite frequently. I felt and feel that way sometimes. Usually I miss him and I feel sad when I think of him now.
Chiyoko: How would you act when someone said that you two were a pair?
Usagi: “I already have a way better boyfriend,” that’s what I usually said.
Chiyoko (raising her eyebrows): So you didn’t want to be Seiya-san’s girlfriend only because you had a boyfriend but not because you didn’t love him. Was that what you meant? Or you just couldn’t believe that someone so perfect like him would fall in love with you? Or because people said you were a pair and you want to upset them? Or because everyone keeps reminding you Mamoru-chan all the time and you don’t want to lose your friends? These, all of these, are very common feelings of teenagers.
Usagi looks at Chiyoko with wide eyes.
Chiyoko: Seiya-san teased you most of the time so deep in your heart, you could not believe that he would fall in love with you. You convinced yourself that he was not serious, and also because of Mamoru-chan of course, so even you liked Seiya-san, you didn’t open your heart for him. But now he’s not here. You miss him so that you can’t deny that. Actually, you knew it. You knew you love each other from the beginning. You just couldn’t believe it, and face it. You convinced yourself not to.
Usagi (sobbing and covering her face with her hands): Yes, I love him. I just thought I already had Mamoru and a future with him. I shouldn’t and wouldn’t have someone else. I convinced myself that Seiya wouldn’t fall in love with a girl like me.
Chiyoko: I am afraid so. I believe that you fell for him because your original dream was to become a normal girl. You changed it because it was not going to come true. But since Seiya-san fell in love with you because you were Usagi but not anybody else, you felt that your original self came back. That made you had feelings for him. But you felt uncomfortable to go for him because he was an unknown future and you want to be loyalty for Mamoru-san. You couldn’t even imagine giving up someone who has been through so much with you. Also, instinctively, you can’t believe that a boy will fall for your true self. Like I said, you knew it from the beginning. But you couldn’t believe it and you convinced yourself not to believe it. But deep in your heart, you love him more than everything. You were your true self when you were with him.
Usagi nods continually. Her tears drop running down her cheek.
Chiyoko: You may think that I said it because of Mamoru-chan. But I would like you to know that was not the reason. I would like us to be friends. I am sincere about that. Anyway, I am the type of girl who won’t hire my true feelings and acts immediately on my feelings, sometimes I do not even think too deeply about it. You may say that I listen to my sensibility more than my sense. But I know that happiness is a feeling from my heart but not from my brain. So I choose to listen to my heart most of the time because it won’t lie to me. And here is my suggestion to you: don’t let your brain convince you all the time. Listen to your heart sometimes.
Usagi: Chiyoko-chan, you understand me more than I understand myself, and you are a really smart girl. I was so stupid that I dragged him away. He would never come back. What should I do? I want him to come back. What should I do? (Looks at Chiyoko.) Yuko-chan told me you could find him. Could you do that for me? He is …
Chiyoko: Usagi-chan, the only way to do that is to go there and bring him back because we don’t have any communication network with him. Although it will take some time to find the planet, this is the most efficient way and it works for sure. But you know I can’t do it right now, none of us can. (Usagi starts crying right away.) But I do know another method that may do the work. However, that was just fame on my planet. I can’t be sure that it works for sure.
Usagi: What is it? No matter what, I would like to try. I want him back.
Chiyoko: On my planet, there was a myth saying that if you want someone far away to know what you want to tell him or her, you can do one thing. You can flow 1000 paper stars and put them in a large glass bottle, as well as 1000 paper cranes and put them together like a chain. After then, you can put the stars into the river and put the crane chain on a tree besides the river. Then, he or she will get your message. You have to do it on your own. While you are making the stars and cranes, you must continue thinking of getting him back.
Usagi (stops crying and becomes very excited): Really? Is it really going to work? Why does it have to be stars and cranes?
Chiyoko: Actually, you should make something that stand for dreams, luck, and fortune. On Earth, it should be stars and cranes, right? I heard this myth from my mother, Queen Frederica. It had no facts saying that it works for sure but many people said so. That’s the way a myth should be. But it’s worth a shot, right?
Usagi (nodding continually): Um, you are right. I don’t want to wait any longer. I will give it a try. I would not lose anything anyway. Well then, do I need a special shade of glass for the stars? Is there anything else I should be careful with?
Chiyoko: You don’t need a special glass. But you must pick one that you can put 1000 stars in it. Because you must put every star you made in the bottle and close the bottle every time you stop and you cannot pull out any of the stars from the bottle. That means you cannot exchange the bottle once you start. You can use any color you want to make them. If you prefer, I can go to buy the suitable materials with you.
Usagi (smiling): Thank you very much, Chiyoko-chan. You are my confidant. You understand me, and you even saved my life. Would you like to be my sworn sister?
Chiyoko (surprised and excited): I would love to. This is my honor. Actually, I understand you because we have similar personalities. So from now on, you are my elder sister. We will be together no matter what happens, ok?
Usagi nods. They smile to each other. An unbreakable friendship has just been built. Meanwhile, Nemesis and Cassandra are talking in the hall.
Cassandra: We’d better send the Three Dreams to look for Princess Irene.
Nemesis: Phantasus! Icelus! Morpheus! Come here.
Three Dreams are around 25 years old and are trigeminous (triplet). They are all wearing gowns and holding sticks. Phantasus is in dark brown. Icelus is in dark blue. Morpheus is in dark gray. They have the same color of hair and eyes as their cloth.
All: Yes, your honors.
Nemesis: Go and get back the Universal Crystal. I need to see it as soon as possible.
At Mamoru’s apartment, Mamoru and Chiyoko are reading a graphic biology book.
Mamoru (suddenly): What did Usagi-chan and you talk about?
Chiyoko tells him what happened.
Mamoru: Was the myth real?
Chiyoko: Everything I said was real. It is just that I am not sure it works or not. But I think that it will at least give her a hope that he will come back. That’s good for her.
Mamoru: You’re right. I am glad to know you two work out ok.
Chiyoko: I am excited too. Now I am her younger sister. I will help and support her no matter what happens. I believe that she can be recovered so soon because she was in love with Seiya-san from the beginning. She was just too childish to realize it.
Mamoru: I am glad to hear that. You really know her. No wonder she wants to be sisters with you. (Chuckling,) by the way, I wonder who wants to go to all Disneyland around the world? I believe you are childish as well.
Chiyoko (pouting): Hey, childish is not a bad thing. I love that part of me.
Mamoru (smiling): And I love anything about you.
Chiyoko (smiling): I love you as well.
Two lovebirds hold each other and kiss. Then they continue on reading the book.
[CM Break]
Four inners and Usagi together (shouting): What? Chiyoko-chan had a fiancé?
Four inners, Usagi, Haruka, and Michiru are having drinks at Usagi’s home.
Michiru: Not Chiyoko-chan, it’s Irene. Mamoru-san and Chiyoko-chan told us that. But Chiyoko-chan didn’t say who was it. She said it doesn’t matter now anyway.
Usagi: She was right. She had been through this kind of stuff. No wonder she could understand my situation.
Ami (to Haruka and Michiru): Usagi-chan and Chiyoko-chan are sworn sisters now.
Usagi: Not just sisters, we are one.
She then picks up her tea and drinks it.
Minako: So, you are totally fine with them?
Usagi (blushed smiling): I am ok because I realize it now. I was in love with Seiya from the beginning. I was so stupid to give him away. But I am going to get him back. I asked Chiyoko how and she taught me. I am working on it now.
Everyone is surprised but relieved to hear that.
Michiru: Congratulations. But what’s the method?
Usagi then tells them about the myth. Everyone thinks that Chiyoko just told her that because she wanted Usagi to be positive until the war is over and she can go to planet Kinomku and get Seiya back.
Rei: Do you need any help?
Usagi (shaking her head): Chiyoko-chan said I have to do it all by myself, otherwise the message can’t be delivered.
Haruka (looking at her watch): It’s getting late. I think Michiru and I should go now. (Looking at the four inners,) do you need a ride?
Ami: We will stay here overnight because Usagi-chan is alone at home tonight.
Usagi thinks of the night Seiya as her bodyguard and blushes.
Usagi (thinking): Oh, I think of him more and more often now. I really miss him.
After Haruka and Michiru left, they go to have shower and then go to sleep. At the same time, Chiyoko, who is reading a book at Mamoru’s apartment, feels something.
Mamoru: What is it?
Chiyoko: I feel Usagi is in danger.
Mamoru (seriously worried): Are you positive?
Chiyoko: There’s only one way to be positive.
At Usagi’s home, four inners are dreaming that their dreams are coming true. They are really happy to see that until they hear this.
Icelus’s voice echoing: If you want your dream come true, just ask. I can make your dream to come true if you give me your Hope and Love Crystals.
Four inners realize it is a trap. They try hard to wake up but they fail. At the same time, Icelus is floating outside the room of the four inners sleeping at Usagi’s home.
Icelus (to himself): Morpheus was right. This method is good. If they are normal human, we can turn them into our slaves. If they are the right ones, they will refuse us and we know that they are the ones. This is going to be great.
Finally, the four inners wake up and get up.
Icelus (whispering): It’s strange. I heard that there is only one princess. Why could the four of them wake up? Did I not put enough power?
The four inners see Icelus and they quickly transform.
Ami: Mercury Crystal Power, make up!
Rei: Mars Crystal Power, make up!
Makoto: Jupiter Crystal Power, make up!
Minako: Venus Crystal Power, make up!
Icelus: So you are the sailor soldiers. No wonder you can wake up from my illusion.
Venus: Who are you?
Icelus: I am one of the Three Dreams, Icelus. Give me your Crystals or you die.
Mars: You are so foolish that you think we would give our Crystals to you.
Icelus: I can make your dreams come true if you give me your Crystals.
Jupiter: Our dreams are the same one. We would like to be our princess’s friends and protect her and this planet forever. We would not allow you to destroy it.
Moon (suddenly shows up): Jupiter is right. You are not going to destroy our planet or hurt any people living on this planet. For love and justice, the sailor suit beautiful girl fighter! Sailor Moon! In the name of the moon, I will punish you!
Icelus: Let’s have a nice dream. Icelus’s illusion!
Five of them are feeling very sleepy.
Moon (thinking): I can’t fall down. I must attack him. But I can’t move. What should I do? I don’t want to lose now. I just found out how to get Seiya back. I don’t want to die now. Please anybody, come and help me.
Protector: Cosmos Divine Light!
The attack hits Icelus. Four inners and Moon wake up. Protector and Tuxedo Kamen show up. Protector quickly runs to Moon and holds her.
Protector: Are you ok, Sailor Moon?
Moon: I am fine. Let’s finish him off.
Protector (nods): Cosmos Divine Light!
Moon: Silver Moon Crystal Healing Kiss!
However, the attacks are blocked out by Icelus’s power. Everyone is shocked.
All (thinking): Even Moon and Protector cannot hurt him. What shall we do?
Icelus: Are these sailor soldiers? Icelus’s illusion!
This time the attack goes to the sailors but Tuxedo Kamen blocks the way and takes the attack. He falls on the floor. Everyone is shocked. Protector gets tears in her eyes immediately. She quickly goes to hold him and starts shaking him.
Protector: Wake up, Tuxedo Kamen. Wake up!
In Tuxedo Kamen’s dream, he is Mamoru, who is working at a hospital as a doctor. He is walking down the stairs and goes to the psychology department. He knocks the door, which has the words “Dr. Chiba Chiyoko” on it, and walks in.
Mamoru (smiling): Had you finished your work today, Chiyoko?
Chiyoko (smiling): Just finished. My last patient just left. We can go now.
They go to the supermarket and buy some food. Then they go back to Mamoru’s apartment, which is Mamoru and Chiyoko’s apartment now, and make dinner.
Mamoru (smiling): I really enjoy our lives now.
Chiyoko (smiling): Yeah, me too. I can be a psychologist and be with you. I hate to fight anymore. I wish I never became a sailor soldier. Luckily, we are normal now.
Mamoru (surprised thinking): Why did she say it? She told me that she would not mind to be a sailor soldier forever as long as she was with me. She could even give up her dream for me. This is not she. Yes, the eyes are different. She’s not her.
Meanwhile, Protector is still crying and shaking Tuxedo Kamen. The Graces, Uranus and Neptune had come and they joined fighting Icelus.
Protector (whispering in Kamen’s ear): Wake up! Please wake up! I love you, Mamoru-chan. Please come back to me.
Then Tuxedo Kamen slowly opens his eyes. They look at each other.
Tuxedo Kamen: I love you as well, Chiyoko.
Suddenly, Protector’s Hope Crystal and Tuxedo Kamen’s Love Crystal come out with strong golden and silver lights respectively. Then the Crystals join together and form a Crystal with very strong lunar light. Everyone is shocked.
Protector (whispering with disbelieve): It is the Universal Crystal!
Tuxedo Kamen: This is the Universal Crystal?
Then there is a light that goes to cover Protector’s transformation pin from the Universal Crystal. The pin changes into a new one. It is a double heart-shaded with a golden heart above and another reverse silver heart below, angle to angle. There is a pair of wings in the middle of the pin one of each side of the join point of two hearts. Protector quickly holds up her new pin and yells her new transformation line.
Protector: Protector Universal Crystal Power, Make Up!
Sailor Cosmos Protector’s uniform is basically the same one but with a crown on her head. The crown looks like Neo-Queen Serenity’s but Protector’s is in lunar with lavender heart. Everyone else is so shocked that they can’t move an inch. Then Protector kisses Tuxedo Kamen and a new scepter comes out. Basically, it looks exactly like her new transformation pin, only bigger, and also there are no wings at all but an aureole at the joining point. Then the Universal Crystal goes into the top of the golden heart of the scepter.
Protector: Use your power, Tuxedo Kamen. You can do it. Get behind me and hold my hands. Then yell ‘Universal Crystal Power Divine Love’ with me.
Kamen does so. His hand covers Protector’s hand holding the new scepter.
Kamen and Protector: Universal Crystal Power Divine Love!
There is shining lights moving on the aureole of the scepter, just like her old one, and the energy comes out and hits Icelus. He is vanished right away. Everyone except Protector is still in great shock. They all stare at Protector with nobody move.
It’s me, Princess Cynthia, again. How’s going? Pretty good?
Some of you may think it’s not possible for Mamoru and Chiyoko to create a Universal Crystal since they haven’t known each other for a long time. But I believe love has nothing to do with the length of time together. It’s a feeling in our hearts. Some people may even fall in love at first sight, get married, and live happily ever after. Trust me. I know such kind of couples.
Someone e-mailed me and talked about the break-up of Mamoru and Usagi. I’d like to take this opportunity to share with you about what I think. Feeling is a feeling. No one can control one’s feelings. Usagi could not control herself to fall in love with Seiya. No one can blame her for that. If you think she has never loved Seiya at all, you’d better watch the series again and again until you see it. Anyway, in my story, it was Mamoru’s decision to break up with Usagi. He didn’t want to be the second on her list so he broke up with her. If he didn’t mind, or/and he thought Seiya would not be back, or/and he didn’t want to “kill” Chibi-Usa, he might stay with Usagi. But he was not that kind of person I’m afraid. I have a gift, like Chiyoko. I see people. Mamoru is not a bad guy at all. He is just a normal man (human), no matter Endymion or Mamoru. We should not insult Mamoru or make Mamoru bad in order to “upgrade” Seiya. I think Mamoru is good, but Seiya is better. Mamoru maybe the best man on Earth, but Seiya is the most suitable man for Usagi. Every girl doesn’t need the best man for her. She just needs the most suitable man for her. Well, you read and will read my other opinions in my story.
By the way, I believe that if two people really love and care about each other, they will have sixth sense for each other. They will feel something when the other one is very sad, happy, or in danger, like Chiyoko and Usagi (remember love can be divided in few categories: gender, friendship, family, and even stranger).
Well, the story is getting more and more excited. What’s going to happen next? When are the Three Lights going to come back? Don’t worry. We will hear from them in next episode.
