Act 12 - The Decisive Battle REINCARNATION


The senshi watch in shock as Sailor Moon and Tuxedo Kamen's dead bodies fall to the ground. The ginzuishou begins sucking its light out of Kamen's body and reunites itself. Then it begins covering up the dead bodies in a crystal. Metallia moves forward and swallows up the bodies encased in the crystal, then moves toward the surface of Earth and begins spreading chaos. Luna's wounds from Tuxedo Kamen reopen, so the senshi return to the control room in Crown Arcade.

Luna asks Artemis to take her to the moon, to the sacred Crystal Tower in the prayer room of the castle. Once they arrive, Luna asks Queen Serenity for help and offers to pray in Usagi's place. Sailor Venus tells the senshi that they must make an opportunity to seal Queen Metallia away, by laying down their transformation pens, which is the same as laying down their lives. Sailor Venus picks up the sword as the senshi call upon their planet powers and yell, "Make up!" They toss up the pens and the ginzuishou sword lights up.

The story goes to a series of flashbacks of the Silver Millenium. Venus scolds Princess Serenity for sneaking to Earth. Serenity remembers seeing Endymion on Earth, and seeing strange dark pillars of stone appearing on Earth. The senshi feel that a love affair between the Earth and Moon would end sadly, after seeing the dead Serenity and endymion. Queen Serenity seals everyone away and gives them to the future. (End Flashback)

Sailor Moon wakes up and pulls out the broken faced moon watch she had at her chest. The watch took the sword for her and has been smashed. Sailor Moon sees Kamen and the ginzuishou before her. She cries, and when her teardrop hits the ginzuishou, it opens up like a flower. Sailor Moon uses the ginzuishou to escape Metallia's body while encased in the crystal. Once they are free, Kamen wakes up, but he is unable to see. Sailor Moon tries to fight Metallia off with the power of the ginzuishou, but Metallia just sucks the power in. Kamen reaches into his tuxedo and pulls out the four stones, which took the sword slash for him. The ghost of Kunzite appears and explains that Metallia is the empress of the night with the power to turn those who oppose her into stone. The mark on Metallia's forehead is her heart and an attack focused there will defeat her. The other three generals appear and tell Kamen that they are happy to have found him once more before they fade away and the four stones crumble. Kamen tells Sailor Moon how to defeat her and that he will take place of her friends in this battle. Sailor Moon feels stronger and more encouraged. She takes out the crescent moon wand, which grows longer, and tells Metallia she will seal her away.
