Friends? Enemies? New Power
Shows Up On Our Date!
Usagi’s Voice: I’m going to have another doki doki (heart pounding) date with Seiya-chan. I’m very nervous because I’m going to tell him something very important. But Nicole sends her flowers to try to destroy our date. Luckily, some new sailors come to help us. But who are they???
Usagi and Luna are alone in an unknown room.
Usagi: Come on, Luna. Give me that!
Luna: No! It’s just supposed to be used for protecting and fighting for the Earth.
Usagi: I AM! Chiyoko said it’s going to give more power to our Universal Crystal!
Usagi (begging with stars in her tearful eyes): Please?
Luna looks at Usagi. Luna’s heart is softened.
Luna (sighs): Oh, all right! I’ll give you that later.
Usagi (squeezing Luna and kissing her): Hurray! Thank you, Luna!
Luna (with green, then purple, then white face): Oh…I…can’t…breath…
Usagi (releases Luna): Oh, I’m sorry, Luna. Are you okay? …
[Title Screen]
In Nicole’s palace, Cassandra is standing beside Nicole, who’s sitting. There are four girls standing in front of them. From right to left: Arbutus is wearing green bikini and boots with peach ribbons around her; Daffodil is wearing yellow bikini and boots with white ribbons around her; Gloxinia is wearing brown bikini and boots with green ribbons around her; Jonquil is wearing white bikini and boots with creamy yellow ribbons.
Cassandra: Now her highness sends you to the Earth to get Prince Eric and Princess Irene back here alive.
Four Flowers: Yes, Cassandra-san. (To Nicole,) we won’t disappoint your highness.
It’s a beautiful morning. In Chiyoko’s house, Chiyoko knocks Usagi’s door and walks in. Usagi is sleeping like a baby in her room with her old ugly sleeping habit: stretching her hands and legs and her sheets are only covering half of her body. Chiyoko looks at her with a funny face and hands across her chest, and is tapping her right foot. Then she sighs and pulls off Usagi’s sheets.
Chiyoko (shouting): Wake up, you little sleepyhead! You should be ashamed of yourself. Seiya has been waiting for over an hour and you’re still sleeping! Wake up!
Usagi slowly opens her eyes and slowly moves to the bathroom – actually she would be much slower if Chiyoko wasn’t pushing her. (By the way, the bathroom is inside the bedroom.) While Usagi is cleaning up, Chiyoko continues on her lesson.
Chiyoko: Usagi, if you’re thinking that Seiya won’t dump you so you can act like this, you’re wrong! You should treasure his connivance instead of using it.
Usagi (muffled because she’s brushing her teeth): I know! You don’t need to give me a lesson. God, you sound like my mother.
Chiyoko (squeezes her eyes): What?
Usagi finished her clean up and stands in front of Chiyoko.
Usagi: Look, Chiyoko. I know I’m treating him a little bit badly. But that’s the way I like it. I don’t need to pretend anything in front of him in order to ingratiate him. I can just be myself. Seiya-chan loves it, and I love it. (Shrugs.) So? What are you gotta do?
Then she walks from the bathroom back to the bedroom and gets cloths to change.
Chiyoko (sighs): Yeah, you’re right. It’s between you and him. I can say nothing. Anyway, (smiles curiously,) are you going to go for your little ruse today?
Usagi (nods smilingly): Uh-huh, I’ve planned this for a long time. I hope it works.
Usagi finished dressing up and walks downstairs with Chiyoko.
Usagi (nervously): Oh yes, Mamoru and you are NOT with us today, are you?
Chiyoko: Of course not. We’re going to the book fair, which you aren’t interested.
Usagi (sweat-dropped then praying): Lucky me!
When Usagi and Chiyoko reach the living room, Seiya and Mamoru are reading newspapers there. The girls run to them smilingly and kiss them.
Seiya: Thanks for wake her up, Chiyoko. I’m not sure how much longer I would have to wait if you didn’t wake her.
Usagi (pouting): Hey! Does that mean you don’t want to wait for me?
Seiya pulls Usagi to his bosom and kisses her.
Seiya (smiling): Of course not.
Usagi (smiling sweetly): Um, that’s better.
Chiyoko and Mamoru smile and shake their heads.
Mamoru: Ok, Chiyoko and I got to go.
Seiya: Let’s go together. We’re leaving anyway.
When their cars are leaving, Usagi and Chiyoko wave to each other good-bye. Chiyoko gives Usagi a good luck gesture. Usagi smiles back and nods.
Usagi: So where are we going?
Seiya: I don’t know. Maybe this time, you make the decision.
Usagi: All right! Then take us to the airport first.
Seiya (surprised): Why?
Usagi (smiles): I’ll tell you why later.
Seiya frowns ‘cause he’s confused but still drives them there without saying another word.
Usagi: This is where we first met.
Seiya: Well actually kind of like the first time I saw you.
No jealousy, No implying, no sarcasm, and no mocking, just simply telling the truth. Usagi knows, so she just smiles, puts her hand into Seiya’s, and kisses him on his face.
Usagi (smiling): And also we found out each other’s identity, and more importantly, you saved me. Without thinking the outcome, you transformed and saved me. I bet Taiki-kun and Yaten-kun were very angry with you.
Seiya (amusingly): Well, Taiki just asked me if I still remembered our mission. I said yes and he was okay with it. But Yaten and I almost got into a fight.
Usagi bursts into giggles. (By the way, Seiya is wearing sunglasses and hat that cover half of his face, so nobody recognizes him.) Then they go to the Juubangai Park.
Usagi: This is where I talked to you the first time.
Seiya (amusingly): No, this is where you yelled at me, teased me, and said no one was allowed to call you Odango except YOUR Mamo-chan.
Usagi bursts into laughter and then she gives Seiya a hug.
Usagi: Now, it’s YOUR Odango. Come to think of it I don’t even remember why I told you that. Mamoru-san hasn’t called me that for a long time.
Seiya shrugs.
Usagi: Forget about it. Let’s go to the Ichinohashi Park.
Usagi pulls Seiya to the bench she waited for him on their first date.
Usagi: Were you hiding somewhere and saw my conversation with the little boy?
Seiya (amusingly): Of course, otherwise how could I repeat what you said?
Usagi: Why were you doing that then?
Seiya (a little blushed): I was late and I was…well…
Usagi: I know you were late. You don’t have to tell me that. And I’m not asking about the reason you were late. I’m asking why you didn’t show up at the first place?
Seiya (with blear/misty eyes): Actually, that’s the same reason why I was late. I was thinking I shouldn’t chase you while I was in a mission. On the other hand, I couldn’t control myself to see you because I acted on my feelings most of the time. When I saw you here, you were so caring and…it touched me, somewhere, deep down inside.
Usagi smiles and kisses him. After a passionate kiss, they’re still hugging each other.
Usagi (whispering in Seiya’s ear): I love you, Seiya-chan.
Then they go to the other places: the church (Sister Angela rings a bell?), where Three Lights had the join concert with Michiru, etc. They go to the corner where they bumped into each other (actually Seiya bumped Usagi to the floor). They go to the disco where they had their first dance. They even go to the Ferris wheel in the amusement park, where Usagi watched Three Lights’ concert and Seiya told her everything. And the radio station where Seiya took an attack for Usagi. Suddenly, it rains, so Seiya suggests going home.
Usagi: Go home? NO! It’s prefect to go to one place.
Seiya: Where?
Usagi (smiling): Juuban High School!
[CM Break]
They’re standing at the top of the building of Juuban High School face to face. The rain is falling slowly and lightly. But unlike last time, this time they’re in love, and they have an umbrella. ^^
Usagi: You remember here?
Seiya: How can I forget?
Usagi (softly): Seiya-chan…
Seiya: Huh?
Usagi: I love you, Seiya-chan. You’ve made me love myself, the real me, because YOU ARE in love with the real me. I know you’re kind of thinking negative things about our relationship. Well, me too. But the point is: as long as we love each other and we’re happy together, who cares?
Seiya is surprised to hear that.
Seiya (chuckles lightly): I’ve never seen you like this. What are you trying to say?
Usagi is blushed, then she holds Seiya and he hugs her back. They kiss and then Usagi puts her head on Seiya’s chest, still blushing.
Usagi: I want us to put away all our silly little self-confusing thinking in our mind. That includes (counting her fingers) your pride, your “female-male” non-sense, all those non-sense about me and Mamoru-san, and I’ll stop thinking I’m not qualified to make a commitment to you simply because I didn’t keep mine to Mamoru-san.
Seiya: I didn’t know you feel that way. You shouldn’t think so. It wasn’t your fault. Feelings towards other people are uncontrollable. You shouldn’t blame yourself.
Usagi: I know. I won’t, from now on, and I’ll forget about how good you are and start thinking about some bad things about you. That’ll make me realize that you’re not so perfect and I’m not so dump. We’re quite equal.
Seiya bursts into laughter. Usagi pats him.
Usagi (pouting): Would you stop laughing at me?! I’m very serious about this! I’ve planned this for a long time. I’d like you to forget the past, and only look forward and pay attention to the future ahead us. Chiyoko said the best way to do so is to make you face the past. That’s why I asked you to bring us to those places. Actually, those were HAPPY memories of my life. I’m never going to forget them.
Seiya (seriously): Those were HAPPY memories for me too. (Chuckles a little.) They were even though if we didn’t turn out this way.
Usagi (pouting): Seiya-chan!
Seiya (serious again): Ok! All right! Well, I guess you’re right. I’ll try my best to change that from now on. It’s getting late. Why don’t we go for dinner?
Usagi: Okay, but let’s go home to change first. We’re a little wet.
They head home immediately and take a shower (SEPERATELY of course ^.~). Later, when Usagi’s back to the living room with a towel on her head for drying her hair, Seiya isn’t there yet.
Usagi (talking to herself): He’s taking a shower longer than me? How strange!
She sits down on the sofa and starts the video game. She’s so concentrated on the game that she doesn’t notice Seiya has finished the shower and is now standing behind her, with only a towel around his waist and another one around his neck. His hair is all wet with water dropping. He leans forward and kisses Usagi on her cheek.
Usagi (groaning): Oh, you’ve made me “game over”.
She turns around and sees what Seiya’s “wearing”. She’s blushed.
Usagi: Why don’t you quit doing this?! It’s embarrassing! Go get some cloths, now!
Usagi pushes him back to the bathroom but Seiya teases her by moving back. After a few pushes, Seiya stops suddenly.
Seiya: OH!
Usagi (feeling something’s wrong): What…What?
Seiya (“seriously”): I’ve dropped my towel.
Usagi (asking stupidly and falteringly): Tow…towel? Which…which one?
Seiya’s towel is still on his neck, which means…
Seiya (smiling evilly): That’s right!
Usagi (stuttering): You…you’d better put it back on.
Usagi fixes her eyes on Seiya’s face because she’s worried that she might see something she wasn’t supposed to see if she moved her eyes. Seiya doesn’t make a move at all. He really admires her blushing face and thinks it’s kind of fun. Actually, Usagi’s face is hot enough to make pancakes by now, and she’s stuck on the floor.
Usagi: You…you stay…stay away from me. Don’t get any closer.
Seiya (pretends to step backward): All right then. I’ll move back.
Usagi (pulls him back immediately): Hey! Don’t move!
Kidding?! If he really moved, Usagi’s going to see “something” for sure!
Seiya (“innocently”): It was you who asked me to move back.
Usagi: No! I asked you to don’t come any closer.
Seiya (pretends to be sad): So are you saying you dislike me now?
Usagi (pouting): I didn’t say that!
Seiya (smiling naughtily): Which means you love me very much?
Usagi (pouting blushingly): I…
Seiya bursts into laughter. Usagi finally realizes he’s just teasing her.
Usagi (shouting): GO TO THE BATHROOM AND GET SOME CLOTHS ON!!!
Usagi closes her eyes and pushes Seiya back to the bathroom, then shuts the door.
Usagi (shouting): Don’t come out unless you’ve got dressed!
Seiya’s still laughing in the bathroom while he’s dressing up. Usagi isn’t very happy about that so she pouts. After Seiya’s well dressed, they head out for dinner. For the romance mood, they’ve decided to go there on foot. They enjoy their dinner romantically. When they’ve finished they dinner and head back to home, they hear a scream.
Seiya: Odango!
Usagi (nods): Um! Moon Universal Crystal Power, make up!
Seiya: Fighter Universal Crystal Power, make up!
They’re surprised to see there are not two but four flowers. They run out and do their speech and start to fight.
Fighter: Love Crystal Divine Light!
Moon: Hope Crystal Eternal Light!
The four girls seem very strong. Their attacks can only block three ribbons. There’s still one ribbon coming to them. Just when it’s about hit them, an attack block the ribbons. Both Fighter and Moon didn’t see who did it and how did he or she or they did it. No one shows up and not a word comes out from the people who saved them. And they don’t have the time to think or ask. Another attack from the flowers is coming.
Mercury: Mercury Aqua Rhapsody!
Mars: Mars Flame Sniper!
Jupiter: Jupiter Oak Evolution!
Venus: Venus Love and Beauty Shock!
Aglaia: Glorious Lighting!
Euphrosyne: Cheering Capriccio!
Thalia: Blooming Flowers!
Healer: Star Sensitive Inferno!
Maker: Star Gentle Uterus!
They’re right on time, showing up with Protector and Kamen.
Protector: Are you guys alright?
Moon: Just great!
Fighter: Protector, let’s finish our job.
Protector: Hope Crystal Divine Light!
Fighter: Love Crystal Divine Light!
Moon: Hope Crystal Eternal Light!
Four flowers got killed.
Kamen: I saw there was another power before us to save you two. Do you know who are they? I can see they’re definitely not someone I know.
Fighter: Actually, I’m not sure how many people were there. But I’m sure none of us know them. Otherwise, they would show up.
Moon: But they’re our friends definitely.
Mars: For you, there’s no one isn’t your friend! You silly pig!
Moon (angrily): SAILOR MARS!!!
They get into a fight and everyone else has sweatdrop. Later, they all went home.
Chiyoko: Usagi, how did your plan go?
Usagi: OH NO! I haven’t finished yet!
Usagi rushes to Seiya’s room and Chiyoko shakes her head with a teasing smile.
Usagi: Seiya-chan, would you transform to Fighter?
Seiya (confused): Why?
Usagi: Don’t ask. Please? For me?
Seiya (sighs): How can I resist you?
Usagi smiles very merrily seeing Seiya gets his transformation pin and transforms.
Fighter: Now, are you happy?
Usagi doesn’t answer her. Instead, she picks out a transformation pen, the one she used in the first TV series to transform into other people.
Usagi: Moon Power, transform me into a handsome guy!
Fighter looks at Usagi with wide eyes and can’t say a word. Usagi giggles.
Usagi (as the guy): So? What do you think?
Fighter: What…what is this?!
“Usagi” takes Fighter’s hand and kisses her on her lip. Fighter is blushed immediately. When “Usagi” let go of Fighter, he laughs. (Usagi’s a guy at that point so I used “he”. Oh, I’m a little confused myself. ^_^0)
Usagi (giggling): That wasn’t so bad. No wonder you love to do that so much. Listen, Fighter! If you don’t want me to do this anymore, simply drop your thinking of you being a girl and is no good to be with me, understood?
Fighter is touched. She holds Usagi and kisses her.
Fighter: Thanks for planning and doing this for me. I really appreciate it. From now on, I’ll put my non-sense thinking away and have more faith in our relationship.
Usagi (nods smilingly): Um!
Fighter and “Usagi” transform back to Seiya and Usagi.
Seiya: Thanks for everything, Odango. (Smile teasingly.) I’m glad that for the first time, you’ve done something for our relationship actively.
Usagi (pats Seiya and pouting): Hey!
Seiya kisses her to stop her complaining.
Seiya: I love you, Odango.
Usagi: I love you too, Seiya-chan.
I didn’t make too many changes. I simply added the title and one or two lines that are not affecting the story line at all. Please refer to episode 229 for other stuff that I’d like to tell you guys. ^^
