~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

At one point or another in their lives, most 
everyone wishes they could have a grand, dashing 
adventure – complete with dungeons and a brave 
hero to leap in and save the day.  What these 
pleasant fantasies leave out is the dirt, blood 
and fear.  And let's not even get started on 
the crying need for a decent bathroom in these 
places.  I swear that if we get out of this 
mess alive, I will never again complain about 
having to clean out the ice cream freezer, 
standing in line at the supermarket or slow 
traffic.

                                -Reika.

	"We have to get out of here right now!" 
Motoki whispered.

	"Iie, we can't just leave her here. Who 
knows what they'll do!" Reika replied. She 
began looking around frantically for something, 
anything, to break the casing that held the 
Senshi.

	Motoki grabbed onto her forearms to hold 
her. "Listen to me, love, we have to go otherwise 
the danger will only increase by our staying here. 
I-I think I know how to get help but we can't do 
it ourselves! We'll get nowhere and only put our 
lives in danger. How will that help Haruka-san 
then?"

	Before Reika could answer, Motoki shoved her 
into an alcove in one of the walls and then pressed 
himself next to her. The footsteps came into the 
room and the two held their breath, their hearts 
racing uncontrollably.

	The footsteps stopped at the tank and all 
was silent for some moments. Then to the couple's 
great relief the footsteps departed the room 
leaving just the two of them and the entrapped 
Senshi of Uranus.

	"Kami," Reika breathed. "That has to be 
*the* most suspenseful moment in my life ever."  

	"You've got that right. Now let's get out 
of here, I think if we follow the sound of those
footsteps, we'll find an exit out of this hellhole,"
Motoki whispered.

	Motoki began walking but stopped when Reika 
didn't follow. He turned around to see her standing 
next to the tank, staring at it.

	"Reika, we have to go. Onegai, let's just go."

	She turned to look at him, tears brimming at 
her eyes. "I can't, I can't just leave knowing we're 
leaving her like this, helpless, unable to defend 
herself. She and the other Senshi have done so much 
for us... for this world, why can't we do something 
in return?"

	"Because it is impossible," he replied quietly.

	"Iie! Nothing is impossible! Nothing!" she 
said furiously. "We will get her out of here.  We 
will do it!"

	Motoki sighed heavily. Women, he thought. 
"Alright, we need something that'll break through 
that tank. Start looking."

	Reika began walking away from the tank when 
suddenly she tripped over something. She fell to 
the floor on her knees and Motoki rushed towards 
her, helping her sit up.  She managed to turn 
around and sit on the floor, rubbing her knees. 

	"Are you okay?" he asked, worried out of 
his mind.

	"I'm fine, I'm...." her voice died as she 
stared in front of them. Motoki did the same and 
gasped. A black... box had risen from the ground, 
directly in front of the tank.

	"What is that?" she whispered.

	"I don't know, but whatever it is, I think 
it might be to our benefit." He walked up to it 
carefully, Reika behind him.

	The surface of the 'podium' had buttons and 
knobs all across it.

	"One of these buttons will probably release 
her," Reika said.

	"I know, but which one?" Sweat formed on 
Motoki's brow as his gaze shifted from each button. 
Now I know what it feels like to be a member of 
the bomb squad, he thought grimly. One bad choice 
and it would be all over.

~~~~~

	Usagi stood on the balcony of Mamoru's apartment, 
the slight breeze tossing her hair lightly. The full 
moon was out and she thought it coincidental that it 
shone brightly at a time like this.

	"I will not fail, Mother," she whispered. A 
determined look crossed her face and her hand formed 
a fist on the railing. She would not cry for she had 
cried enough. "I will get them all back, I've done 
it before and I'll do it again, however many times 
necessary... I swear it." 

	The wind blew as if in response and she felt 
her skirt press against her legs.  She shivered 
slightly and brought her arms around herself. The 
wind blew harder and she raised her face, closing 
her eyes.  In that instant, a warm sensation ran 
through her body and in the barest of a whisper, 
she felt a kiss on her forehead. Her eyes opened 
and she smiled. It was all the encouragement she 
needed.

	She was strong.  And she would continue to 
be strong, for her mother, her friends, her love.

~~~~~

	The sun felt bleak and strangely cold as 
Michiru sat in it's rays, wishing it could warm 
her chilled body. 

	Many a time in the past, herself and Haruka 
had given up everything - including each other - 
for their mission. But now... now it was different 
in Michiru's eyes. She didn't have the courage to 
speak this to Haruka, but she knew that never again 
could she watch Haruka put the mission first.  They 
would have to, but in her heart she held Haruka as 
important as their Princess - was that so wrong?

	Her eyes wandered inside the apartment to the 
sleeping Princess. Soon they would go to battle.  
Only them - Two Senshi and a senshi-in-training. 
Would they come out alive? The question haunted 
Michiru's troubled mind. "Oh Haruka...." she 
whispered to the afternoon sun. "... I miss you."

~~~~~~~~~~

	Back and forth. Back and forth. Mika knew 
any moment she would scream for Lynn to stand 
still while she harranged her. A thought occured 
to Mika as she watched the cat. "If you stood 
still, could you still tell me off as good?" 

	The calico cat stopped in mid-stride and 
glared daggers at her charge. "Mika! How can you 
sit there and say that?!  Did you listen to a 
word I said?!"

	Mika stretched and yawned before answering. 
"Hai, Lynn. Hai, I heard you drone on like a broken 
record about how mad Galaxia will be at me for 
telling them what I know. I heard you rant about 
how disobedient I am. I covered my ears as you 
screamed, yet again, about how totally irresponsible 
I am - but now it's time for you to hear me." The 
youth stood up and faced the cat sitting on the table, 
eye to eye they stared at each other.  

	Finally Mika gathered up the rest of her 
courage and spread her arms wide. "Tell me you 
don't feel bad for Usagi, Lynn! Tell me that it 
doesn't hurt you to watch her cry for Mamoru-san, 
and for the other senshi! I had to tell her, there 
was no other way. And I will tell my mother that 
as well."

	Lynn held her stare at Mika for a moment longer, 
noticing - maybe for the first time - how much like 
Galaxia Mika was. She turned on her heel and left the 
room with a self-satisfied look on her face.

	Mika watched her walk out before sitting back 
down on the bed and sighing long and hard. "What 
have I done now?"

~~~~~~~~~~~~

	"How can this be?" Luna more or less stated, 
rather than asked. Artemis watched her lay her head 
down and sigh. Slowly he came up to her and nudged 
her gently with his nose. 

	"We couldn't have known, Luna. But we have to 
try and keep our heads about us since it has happened."

	Hotaru sat in silence, her hand wrapped around 
a cup of coco.  Her life seemed to make more sense 
in the light of what had happened. It had always,
secretly, bothered the petite Senshi of Saturn why 
she had grown up so quickly. Of course, she had to 
protect the Princess and restore the outer senshi's 
powers... but was that her only purpose? Now, however, 
Usagi needed her. *Needed* the small Senshi of Silence 
to help her fight and help rescuse the others. She 
felt the joy of true purpose run through her veins 
and she stood. "It is time."

	"Time?" Artemis asked, looking up from where 
he was laying beside Luna.

	"To fight this evil. Father of Setsuna's or not, 
I will not forgive him for this." Her determined face 
caused Luna to look up at her in a new light. She was 
taking her place in the outer Senshi. No more would 
Saturn be quiet and agreeable. It was, indeed, time.

	"Hotaru-chan, what do we do?"

	One set of human eyes and two feline looked 
up at the newest presence in the room. Usagi stood, 
her spine straight and her stance determined. 

	"We go to The Forth Dimension, there we will 
find our enemy and our friends." Usagi turned her 
head to look at Mika... but no, this was not the 
small teenage girl with red wavy hair in odangoes. 
This was a woman, tall and proud - wearing a white 
fuku with gold trim, a taller version of the rod 
that Chibi-Chibi had once held in her hand.

	"Mika-chan?" Usagi questioned, her eyes as 
small as slits as she exsamined the woman before 
her.

	The woman dropped to one knee and bowed 
gracefully. "I am Sailor Cosmos - a reincarnation 
of your ultimate form. Galaxia gave me this power 
to help you out in your time of need. I am only 
here to serve you, my Princess." This finished, 
she pulled herself up and held her wand tightly. 

	Usagi stared for a moment longer before 
turning back to Hotaru and Michiru. "How do we 
get there?"  

	Michiru stood up, her petite body standing 
proudly as she pulled out her hension wand. "Neptune 
Planet Power, Make-UP!" In a brilliant flash of light 
Sailor Neptune stood in front of Usagi, Mika and the 
felines.  

She brought her mirror out and looked at it for 
a moment. "Submarine, Reflection!"  As she pointed the 
mirror out, a wave of light flashed out across the city. 
Luna jumped from the table and ran to the balcony.

	"There! It's showing a black air patch, what is 
that?"

	"That is where we can open a portal to the 4th 
dimension," Mika answered, also going to the balcony 
door. "I can open it with my staff.  Let's go."

	After Usagi and Hotaru changed into their Senshi 
forms, the group took off to the park. As they rounded 
the corner, Usagi stopped suddenly.  "This is where 
Chibi-Usa always fell when she came to this time, it 
makes sense the portal would be here."

	Luna looked up at Usagi, noting the wistful look 
on her face.  "Come Usagi-chan, Chibi-Usa will not be 
born if we do not hurry."

	"Hai Luna," the Princess of the Moon replied and 
straightened her posture. "Well, let's go."	

	"Submarine... REFLECTION!" The black patch of air 
once again appeared before them. Neptune held it open 
with her mirror while Sailor Cosmos gathered energy on 
her wand. A large light shone at the end of the wand and 
Cosmos pointed it towards the patch of black air.

"Time and Space – PORTAL!”

~~~~~~~~~

	They stepped into some sort of hallway. Torches dimly 
lit the area.  Everyone of them could *feel* the evil 
surrounding them... enclosing them.

	"We must be on our guard at all times," Saturn 
said quietly, clutching her glaive tightly.

	"Yeah, who knows what kind of ugly, bad guys they 
have here," Cosmos added, looking warily at their 
surroundings. "So what do we do now?"

	"Sailor Neptune, can you use your mirror in any 
way?" Sailor Moon asked.

	Neptune lifted it to her face and concentrated but 
after a few moments she shook her head in defeat. "I can't 
see anything. There's just so much darkness, it's so thick 
and... the evil... not even my mirror can permeate it. 
Gomen ne, Princess."  

	Usagi's shoulders slumped slightly as she got a 
sinking feeling in the pit of her stomach.  Kami, this 
was so hard, they were so close... yet so far.  She hadn't 
told any of the others but she could *feel* Mamo-chan's 
essence, his spirit. He was alive that much she knew and 
now...he was somewhere here along with the other Senshi 
and they had no idea how to find him.

	Despair began to creep into her heart but suddenly 
she straightened, not giving any chance to the tears that 
were about to form. She was their leader and she would die 
before giving up.

	"We should just start walking," she began. "We'll 
come upon something sooner or later, I know it."

	They began walking and Usagi smiled slightly when 
she heard Mika mumble, "It better be sooner."

~~~~~

	"I can't believe Haruka-san is this light," Motoki 
said, as he and Reika walked along the hallway. They had 
pulled the naked Senshi out of the tank and covered her 
in an old, musty garment they had found nearby.

	"What are you trying to say?" Reika asked, mockingly 
indignant.

	"Nothing. Nothing at all," he replied quickly.

	They continued to walk until Reika sighed, leaning 
against the wall under one of the torches. "This place 
seems endless," she said, frustration apparent in her 
voice. "I wish some door would appear with the word 'exit' 
written in big bold letters."

	"I would pay any amount of money for something like 
that,"  Motoki said, shifting Haruka in his arms, as he sat 
down.

	Suddenly they heard footsteps... many footsteps. 
They exchanged panicked looks. They had no where to hide, 
there wasn't any alcove to squeeze into and the hallways 
where lit, no matter how dimly.

"Kami-sama," Reika whispered, tense.  She looked 
towards the sound of the approaching footsteps. Was 
this it for them?

	"We'll fight them, Reika, we won't surrender to 
these...these youmas!" He leaned the unconscious Senshi 
against the wall and then stood in front of Reika and 
Haruka.

	Figures approached them and Reika heard Motoki 
inhale sharply. She squinted to see and when she did 
so, she felt faint with relief as she stumbled to get 
up.

	"Motoki-san! Reika!" Usagi called their names and 
ran to them, the other Senshi following closely behind 
them.

	"Kami, is it really you, Usagi-chan? We're not 
dreaming are we?" Motoki asked disbelievingly.

	"It is, it is!" Usagi replied happily, hugging the 
both of them.

	Suddenly Reika gasped. "Hey, I know that girl!" she 
said, pointing to Mika. 

	"You were the one I saw at the..."

	"Hai, that was me."

	As they continued to talk, no one seemed to notice 
Michiru. She stared at the person on the floor, the head 
tucked in and tears welled up in her eyes. 

	Could it be?

	"Mo-Motoki is that... is that...?"

	Everyone stopped talking and looked at Motoki. "Hai, 
it is. It's Haruka-san," he said, smiling.

	Michiru slowly walked up to the figure as everyone 
watched her and then went to her knees. She reached out 
a hand and placed it on the cold cheek of Haruka. 

	"Love," she whispered. Suddenly, Haruka's eyes 
opened and Michiru gasped.

	They were not Haruka's eyes. They were the same 
color, the shape, but something was wrong. Before Michiru 
could do anything, Haruka thrust out her hand and Michiru 
flew back, slamming against the wall on the opposite side.
